The cause, speculates the enthusiastic Hobson, is a matter of the "begats."
But beyond the day-to-day Hobson's choice, it is now clear that the surveillance state has extended beyond what anyone intended.
"It might be time to stop calling us a preschool band," Hobson noted.
Mr. Hobson, if you don't mend your manners, I'll certify you for a lunatic asylum.
It will be rather old-fashioned, but then it's Hobson's choice.
General Hobson carried his white head proudly through it, saying little or nothing.
His work had not been unsuccessful, whatever Mr. Hobson's opinion might be.
Left to himself, Hobson might soon outlive the first flush of his enthusiasm for that book.
Admiral Hobson, who broke the boom at Vigo in 1702, belonged to the same calling.
He was next heard of when he reached Hobson's Bay at Sandridge.

Rose Byrne went editorial for her turn on the 2015 Met Gala red carpet tonight (May 4) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
The actress was dressed by Calvin Klein, and wore an intricate custom gown that offers quite a few double-take moments.
I love a dress that offers a surprise once you see it upclose, and this one offers about 10. What appeared to me to be florals and lace from afar, turned out to be leather with circular cut-outs and beads–and I can honestly say I've never seen a dress like this before.
A windblown bob and shimmering pink eyeshadow and lips are a fun pairing with the dress, and I love that there is a lot of joy in each aspect of the look.

For those who want a raised garden bed without all of the work of putting one together, it is a good idea to consider raised garden bed kits. These kits come in all shapes and sizes, each with their own benefits. In short, you can choose the kit that's right for your needs.
These kits often come with weather resistant materials. Look for those that contain cedar or redwood for the best resistance to mold growth, pests and overall weathering. Some are also constructed of composite material, which may be an option for you if you want the most durable product possible, or you are building your garden box in a damp or low lying area.
Look for those that have a mole or gopher system that prevents those pests from entering your garden. Some also offer rabbit proofed fences.
You will find some feature a built in irrigation system, which makes it simplistic to water and care for your garden.
Some will include trellises, or these may be available as an addition to the kit. This will allow you to hang your climbing vegetables freeing up more ground space and encouraging the plants to grow rapidly.
If you decide to purchase a raised garden beds kit, do follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer for assembling it. Be sure that you use any additional materials, as the kit requires. In addition, if you plan to add to the kit's standard size, purchase a kit that allows is contructed with expansion in mind.
Frame Material Choices
Raised garden bed kits can be purchased from a number of retailers, both on and offline. They are available in several different materials that include but are not limited to:
1) Cedar or other wood that is resistant to rot
2) Plastic
3) Stone
4) Hay
5) Straw
Two important things to keep in mind when choosing the material for raised garden bed kits is that the material should obviously not be consumed by rot quickly and that is fits within the aesthetics of what you have in mind.
Obviously, some materials are going to be easier to move around and to put together, so if you will be doing this alone and the combined weight of the materials could be a problem, you will want to choose something that is lighter weight.
Many senior citizens or people with mobility challenges have experienced success with plastic, straw or hay frames. However, it is unusual to buy existing raised garden bed kits that come with straw or hay. If that type of frame appeals to you, you might need to have someone make it for you as a custom order.
What Comes in the Kit?
The typical kit comes with everything that you will need to build the frame, regardless of manufacturer or price. This is going to include the materials necessary to build the frame as well as all of the related hardware.
The average person will probably be able to build their garden bed in a brief period of time, with as little as a Phillips screwdriver and a measuring tape. Some manufacturers have specifically designed their raised garden beds to not require any tools at all to put together, just a few minutes of your time.
It is important to note that the kit does not typically come with the soil. That gives you the opportunity to put the soil in that you want to use. There are many different choices available from a nursery and you may need to do some research to learn what the best soil will be to meet your needs.
Fruits and vegetables may need different types of soil then flowers would to prosper in, so knowing what you plan to grow will help you as you plan your raised garden bed. The soil that you choose will have an enormous impact on your crops.
Designing and Planning Your Raised Garden Bed
As you plan your raised garden bed, you should try to plan for future years as well. Hay or straw has an interesting look while it is in good condition, but when it breaks down it becomes unattractive very quickly. If you don't mind trading hay or straw in each year, either of them would be a good choice. In addition, if someone has a logical expectation of developing the possibility of mobility problems in the future, using one of the raised garden bed kits that is taller may be a good idea. Another option is something that provides steps of varying height. This look allows someone to sit on the medium or tallest step to work, which could be a huge help.
Raised garden bed kits have come a long way from where they were only a decade or two ago. They now last longer, look better and are not homemade as they often were then. Because they are usually mass-produced, they have a visual appeal that could be difficult for a non-professional to replicate. Their price can range from extremely affordable to moderately expensive. Many yards,especially if the existing soil is not high-quality, boast two or more beds that have come from raised garden bed kits. Their appeal is easy to see and hard to dispute.
Raised garden bed kits are available from a number of sources online. See directly below for a listing of popular products available from Amazon.com, one of the Internet's most trusted retailers…

Tuesday, May 26 2009 - Accountability
Protests 5/26-28 throughout US Demand Torture Photos Release and Prosecution
Media Alert: May 26, 2009
Who Will Step Out Boldly?
24 May 2009
This is truly a moment I must say, "If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention...."
"It's important to be clear about what 'preventive detention' authorizes. It does not merely allow the U.S. Government to imprison people alleged to have committed Terrorist acts yet who are unable to be convicted in a civilian court proceeding. That class is merely a subset, perhaps a small subset, of who the Government can detain. Far more significant, 'preventive detention' allows indefinite imprisonment not based on proven crimes or past violations of law, but of those deemed generally 'dangerous' by the Government for various reasons (such as, as Obama put it yesterday, they 'expressed their allegiance to Osama bin Laden' or 'otherwise made it clear that they want to kill Americans'). That's what 'preventive' means: imprisoning people because the Government claims they are likely to engage in violent acts in the future because they are alleged to be 'combatants.'There was also plenty to be outraged about in Dick Cheney's blood-thirsty, fascist speech at the American Enterprise Institute. He meant to have the final word, clearly acts as if he's still in power, and is determined to set terms for Obama. While in California this week, I've talked to a number of people who heard Cheney's raving, and were relieved to hear Obama uphold the "rule of law." But check out the Youtube of Rachel Maddow on Obama's "two speeches." And David Swanson in: "Does Cheney Make Obama Look Good?"
The debate cannot be between Cheney's vision of permanent war for empire, unbounded by constitutional niceties like due process, and Obama's "re-branding" of the same. But I don't buy the argument that those of us who opposed the Bush program should now accept the Obama proposals, and not fight them, because Cheney is waiting in the wings.
The people, represented now by relatively and admittedly small numbers of us who are outraged, and see where this is going, have to come into the argument by taking a stand against US torture, indefinite & preventive detention, and soon, visibly. We need to bring more people with us, and not stop, given the stakes.
Right now, the demand to Release the Torture Photos and Prosecute the War Criminals is right on time. Where the US goes on torture is not yet decided, will be a central issue in the Obama presidency and the conduct of the "war of terror" occupying the people of the Middle East. We cannot depend on the courts to do the right thing. The US Senate has entered in, profoundly on the wrong side. See Dennis Loo: "Senate Votes to Block Release of [Torture] Photos for 5 Years".
But there's a lot more here than the fate of the Guantanamo detainees, as profound a moral question for humanity as that is. I wrote about the appointment of Stanley McChrystal to lead the US occupation of Afghanistan. More and more is coming out on him.
See Tom Engelhart, "Obama, McChrystal, and Expanding the War in Afghanistan and Pakistan."
1. He's a protege of Rumsfeld, protected by Cheney, heading an assassination squad under the Joint Special Operations Command, which Seymour Hersh says is the shadowy assassination squad operating in Iraq as part of the surge.

Best Of :: Arts & Entertainment
The Chance Theater's 2009 season began with a show called Jesus Hates Me, set at the Blood of the Lamb miniature-golf course, and it'll end with the perennial alternative-Christmas show The Eight: Reindeer Monologues. In between, there was the premiere of a new musical, a revival of that evergreen hippie spectacle Hair and a production of Anton Chekhov's The Seagull. That's variety, folks, and it's the scope of the Chance's programming that has helped elevate this Anaheim Hills company into the vanguard of Orange County's storefront-theater scene. Whether tackling highly complicated musicals such as the Stephen Sondheim magnum opus Sunday In the Park With George, staging intense contemporary plays such as David Lindsay-Abaire's Rabbit Hole, or working with Holocaust survivors and students at a New York City high school near Ground Zero, you can always count on the Chance to mix it up. Which almost helps us forgive their staging of the occasional Neil Simon play.
This bong-water-addled send-up of the notoriously bad anti-marijuana propaganda film was a complete ensemble effort, so singling out one actor in the highly talented cast might seem suspect. But Mike Martin, as Reefer Madness's narrator and oh-so-guilty conscience, was so funny and commanding that he nearly walked off with the show. Whether brandishing an enormous joint over his head as if he were Zeus threatening to fire lighting bolts down from Mount Olympus or breaking the fourth wall by directly addressing the audience, Martin injected an air of smiling menace that truly displayed that sometimes Satan does come as a man of peace.
Another ensemble effort, and another example of one cast member shining so brightly she nearly eclipsed the rest of the cast. Many an actress salivates over the chance to play Noises Off's blond, myopic, dumb-as-a-post bombshell. Jennifer Lyon looked the part, and she certainly possessed a deer-in-the-headlights demeanor. But what she accomplished with this fairly stock, if fun, character, was truly outstanding, transforming simple-minded Brooke into a ravishingly executed full-dimensional character that, contrary to everything that seemed to be happening onstage, may have been the smartest one in this wild farce. Many actresses have played this role and generated plenty of laughs, but few have ever understood, as Lyon did, that there can be far more to Brooke than meets the eye.
Since 1983, Santa Ana's St. Joseph Ballet Academy has been turning its mostly underprivileged 400 annual enrollees—ages 8 through high school—on to dance. Many have gone on to pursue careers in the highly competitive field. But less publicized are the academy's services that have nothing to do with ballon, cabrioles or èpaulement. Free academic help, including college-prep testing, is offered to all students, who arrive each afternoon at 3:30, after their regular classes. As a result, since 2005, every St. Joseph student has not only graduated from local high schools, but has also moved on to college coursework. California Institute of the Arts, Northern Arizona University and UCLA are among the institutions that this fall welcomed freshmen who had been members of the St. Joseph class of '09. Most had received academic scholarships, with Jessica Camacho leading the pack with her full-ride to Wellesley. Considering that many St. Joseph students come from Latino households in which parents work multiple jobs and do not have the time to help with homework, the feat is even more amazing. Perhaps the surrounding Santa Ana Unified School District, which has long struggled to raise its graduation rates, could learn something from St. Joseph. Surely the instructors would throw in a free pas de deux.
Greater California took almost five years between sophomore release Somber Wurlitzer and this year's All the Colors, and the result was a lush record that paid tribute to the best of power-pop and Byrds-y psychedelic rock, all while establishing its own distinct voice. Produced by Long Beach music mainstay Ikey Owens (Free Moral Agents bandleader/keyboard player for the Mars Volta), the album's a colorful celebration of '70s nostalgia that's represented even on the CD itself, which is designed to resemble a View-Master reel. Warm, summery tracks such as "All the Colors" and "Five Senses"—buoyed by intricate instrumentation that includes vibraphones, trumpets and a Hammond organ—will set up residence in your brain, and you'll welcome the company.
A gallery is as much a work of art as the pieces it displays, and the Hibbleton Gallery's glass and black-trimmed storefront, red door, blond-wood flooring, and clean white walls are a rigorous contrast to the stimulating underground art it exhibits. Swing by to see a show, attend poetry readings, or stop in for local music or movie nights, and you'll see that the work is chosen with real thought and a precise sense of aesthetics by curator Jesse La Tour. You'd be hard-pressed to find an Orange County gallery that's smarter than this year-old gem.

I've just recently installerd Backtrack 4 and if I go to the Shell - Konsole and type in airmon-ng. Nothing comes up for interface, chipset or driver.
The OS is installed to my Hard Drive.
My built in card is a "Broadcom 4321AG 802.11a/b/g/draft-n Wi-Fi Adapter".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You will need to do your own research first before you'll get any help here. No one is going to google it for you.

I'll give you a push in the right direction though.
Main [Aircrack-ng]
Lucifer is right, we don't spoon feed too much around here. Though if you do get stuck, tell us what you want to do, what you've tried so far, and what's not working the way you think it should. No one around here should give you flack after that, and should at least point you in the right direction.
here and nothing comes up for interface. So I'll have a look on that site. Thanks.
Then you need to learn how to use the search function properly, because there are plenty of topics around these forums and the aircrack forums about bcm43xx. I'm not unsecure, I already know the answer to your problem, yet I'm sure you can find out yourself if you googled a little more.How nice, I have searched prior to asking. I figure if others know they'd be inclined to help, not someone like you who's insecure about their knowledge of anything so they post a repulsive comment to make themselves seem cool.
And I'm not trying to be mean or look smart in any way, this is just how these forums work.

Arthur impacting Ohioans travel plans
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WTVN) -- Tropical Storm Arthur is threatening to disrupt travel plans for millions of holiday travelers along the east coast.
The Outer Banks of North Carolina and Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head in South Carolina are among the top travel destinations for Ohioans.
"It's definitely a good idea to call ahead, call the hotel, to make sure they're still going to be open," said AAA Ohio's Kimberly Schwind.
Even after the storm passes, you'll want to find out what type of damage has been done at your hotel and if that's impacting any of the amenities. Also ask if they have a policy to transfer you to another facility if you're not happy with your accommodations when you arrive.
"It's really a good idea to know what you're getting into after a hurricane has gone through just so there's no surprises when you arrive on vacation," Schwind said.
She also suggests that anyone who is flying should call their airline before leaving to see if there are any delays or cancellations. Even if you're not flying to the impacted area, Schwind says there is usually a ripple effect with air travel.
Traveling to the coasts during hurricane season can be tricky. It's one reason Schwind also recommends using a travel agent to book your hotel instead of doing it yourself.
"That doesn't always mean you're going to get your money back if something happens, but they can certainly help you out and up-front you can know what you're getting into and know that if you do have to cancel last minute what the repercussions will be," she said.

MONTCLAIR, CA -- New in Vertex's PureWaterCooler line is the PWC-8900, a premium three-temperature, bottleless system. The new water cooler has a built-in icemaker that can make up to 13 lbs. of ice a day.
The PWC-8900 boasts a water storage capacity of 2.7-gal., considered large for a bottleless cooler. It uses an existing water source to produce a continuous supply of clean water for offices of up to 50 people.
According to Vertex, the cooler's tall cabinet design and spigot height, along with the large 10" high opening, make filling bottles and mugs easier. It comes with a flat top that is convenient for placing coffee brewers or storing cups and utensils.
The PWC-8900 is offered with two filter options. Reverse-osmosis filtration removes an average 95% of the TDS, including minerals that cause scale deposits in coffeemakers and other fixtures. Standard carbon filtration takes out chlorine taste and odor. The filter cartridges are accessible from the front door.
Easy-to-use touch-sensor dispensing buttons and a recessed faucet are designed to withstand years of use and eliminate hand contact for better hygiene, Vertex said. The 8900's cabinet is built with a steel subframe and side panels, ABS front and top covers, and a high-impact appliance finish that's easy to clean and keep looking like new.
Founded in 1998, Vertex Water Products manufactures and distributes undersink, reverse-osmosis filter systems and other point-of-use water coolers and water purification products for offices and homes. Visit vertexwater.com to see other models in the PureWaterCooler line, available in two- and three-temperature versions, in floorstanding or countertop formats. The line is designed to eliminate the expense and hassle associated with storing and lifting 5-gal. containers in the workplace.

Report: 3 Doors Down bassist released from jail
Listen to 3 Doors Down on iHeartRadio
3 Doors Down bassist Todd Harrell has reportedly been released from jail after posting a $100,000 bond.
E! News confirmed that the rocker was let go on Tuesday after he was charged with vehicular homicide this past weekend. Nashville Police say Harrell was driving under the influence along a Tennessee highway late Friday night when he clipped a pickup truck. The truck skidded off the road and the driver, Paul Howard Shoulders, died at a nearby hospital a short time after the accident.
Harrell is reportedly due back in court on Thursday.

The largest container ship to visit North America docked Sunday at the Port of Long Beach.
The MSC Beatrice - at 1,200 feet long, 167 feet wide and capable of carrying 13,798 container units - docked in the early morning at Long Beach's Pier T on Terminal Island. PHOTOS
The ship is the latest of the larger breed of vessels that have been arriving at the port this year.
"The new ships are bigger and greener, and we're pleased to be able to accommodate these vessels at the Port of Long Beach," said Port Executive Director J. Christopher Lytle. "We're among the few ports that are 'big ship ready,' and that means that we can continue to bring cargo to Long Beach in the most sustainable way possible."
Until this year, the largest container ships serving North America had capacities of about 10,000 "TEUs," or twenty-foot equivalent units. Ships carrying up to 12,500 TEUs began calling at the Port of Long Beach early this year, proving the Port's ability to handle these megaships. Port officials say the distinction is important for a seaport, because the trend in the shipping industry is to build larger and larger ships.
The larger ships are more efficient and greener - the bigger loads mean less fuel is expended per container. However, few ports in the world have navigation channels deep enough to handle these massive ships.
The Port of Long Beach's main channel is 76 feet deep, the deepest in North America, according to port officials.
Built in South Korea in 2009 and operated by the Mediterranean Shipping Co. of Switzerland, the Beatrice is the latest of the new generation of big container ships to be put into service on U.S.-Asia trade routes. It is on the way to Long Beach from Yantian, China, and is due to depart Long Beach on Wednesday for the Port of Oakland.

Why not just using apt-get to install it?
Could you please add arp-scan to BT4? This is an ARP scanning and fingerprinting tool. I'm not allowed to post links yet, but a google for "arp-scan" should find it.
It is available as a source tarball. There are also binary packages for Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and probably others.
I find this invaluable for quickly identifying live hosts on the local LAN, detecting hosts that don't offer network services like firewalls, and fingerprinting systems that can't easily be fingerprinted in other ways.
Yes, you could install it with apt-get, as it's in the Ubuntu and Debian repositories.
My question was whether it should be included in the tools on the ISO, as I find it useful (but am perhaps a bit biased as I wrote it) and a lot of my pentesting colleagues use it as well.
For me it's an essential tool for network enumeration when performing an onsite pentest.
you can use the arpscan (discover hosts) in ettercap.
Regarding the comments within the posts in this sub-forum suggesting simply using apt-get to install requested tools, please remember the purpose of this sub-forum is to request ideas of tools to include within the BT4 iso.
Of course, tools not making it into the iso can always be self-installed at a later time.

The two spat back and forth, with Allen bringing up Hopkins' affair with a married colleague.
"I think, with Hopkins, he finally found some happiness," Mann said.
But the real-life Hopkins priest character dismisses this sort of thing out of hand.
Hopkins' character, Father Lucas, is based on an actual priest in Rome who broadly resembles his movie counterpart.
Hopkins had just graduated from Colgate University and had never pitched in the major leagues before.
Hopkins's brow was clouded, and he sat down with an air of deep dejection.
But how wet you both are, Mr. Hopkins and Mr. Jones,—did you fall in the water?
What place could be the country while this boy Hopkins was about?
"Then we must have one together in 1918," smiled Miss Hopkins.
Incomplete returns indicated a slight gain for Hopkins, but not more than a dozen votes altogether.
Hopkins Hop·kins (hŏp'kĭnz), Sir Frederick Gowland. 1861-1947.
British biochemist. He shared a 1929 Nobel Prize for discovery of growth-promoting vitamins.

Professor studies the history of factory tours
By Peggy Binette, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-5400
Allison Marsh
Ever wondered where the door or tires on your car come from and how they were made? University of South Carolina history professor Dr. Allison Marsh has.
In fact, Dr. Allison Marsh has spent a decade studying the history of factory tours, exploring why companies open their doors to the curious public and what visitors learn when they see how things are made.
Marsh says learning about the manufacturing process makes people more engaged and informed consumers. Plus, she said, touring a chocolate or a potato chip factory is fun.
An expert on 20th-century technology and tourism, Marsh has visited hundreds of American industrial sites, from the oil fields of Alaska and coffee plantations in Hawaii to coal mines in Wyoming.
She is the first historian to focus in detail on factory tours and the role they've played in American culture.
Marsh will share this historic slice of American industrialization and daily life through a book and a companion museum exhibit, titled "The Ultimate Vacation: Watching Other People Work." Both trace the history of factory tours from 1890 to 1940. The exhibit is scheduled to open at USC's McKissick Museum in Spring 2012.
"Factory tours have been around for centuries, with breweries, mines and textiles being among the oldest," Marsh said. "The heyday, though, was in the early 20th century, a time of great change for middle-class America: the weekend had been born; transportation and hotel networks were developing; foods and other goods were no longer being produced locally. And America was proud to show its manufacturing might."
Marsh said Americans, with a strong work ethic, were slow to adopt the idea of a vacation. But beginning in the mid-19th century, they began to take time off, first for religious and educational retreats, later for health and recreation. By the 1890s, these respites often included a trip to a nearby factory.

Press Room
15th Annual Eldredge Prize Awarded for Examination of Censorship in 20th-Century American Art
Media only: Laura Baptiste (202) 275-1595
The Smithsonian American Art Museum has awarded the 2003 Charles C. Eldredge Prize for Distinguished Scholarship in American Art to Richard Meyer, associate professor of art history at the University of Southern California. His recent book, Outlaw Representation: Censorship and Homosexuality in Twentieth-Century American Art (Oxford University Press, 2002), is recognized for its groundbreaking historical analysis of the relationship between homosexuality and censorship in American art from 1934 through 2000.
The three jurors who awarded the $2,000 prize were: Wanda M. Corn, Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor in art history at Stanford University; Sally Promey, professor in the department of art history and archaeology, University of Maryland; and Carol Troyen, John Moors Cabot Curator of paintings for the art of the Americas, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
"We commend Meyer for the complexities of his arguments and for his generous, often personalized, voice," the Eldredge Prize jurors wrote in their decision. "While he makes it clear that he cares deeply about the issues of free sexual choice and free speech, it is the brilliance of his analysis that makes his scholarly advocacy so powerful. On several occasions, he shares with his readers his own sense of vulnerability in writing about explicit sexual imagery especially in an era that is itself prone to censorship. We found his interpretations to be comprehensive and multivalent, leaving plenty of room for readers to draw their own conclusions."
The jurors also commented that "this beautifully written book analyzes difficult and controversial visual material with great care, sensitivity and intelligence."
"Richard Meyer's outstanding book expands our knowledge of the dynamics at work in 20th-century American visual culture," said Elizabeth Broun, the museum's Margaret and Terry Stent Director. "The Smithsonian American Art Museum has a long history of supporting new research and new ideas."
Outlaw Representation is a study of five different historical moments, from the confiscation of a painting by the U.S. Navy in 1934 to the culture wars over arts funding in the 1990s, when artists were censored and put under public scrutiny for creating sexual imagery deemed indecent, immoral or dangerous. The book focuses on particular artworks and the controversies they aroused in the careers of Paul Cadmus, Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, David Wojnarowicz, Gran Fury (an AIDS activist collective) and Holly Hughes. In each case Meyer grounds his analysis in meticulous archival research, using newspaper coverage, personal and institutional correspondence, interviews, documentary photographs and other archival and visual data to work through the multi-layered cultural meanings inherent in these history-making events.
Meyer received his doctorate from the University of California at Berkeley in 1996. He is currently the acting chair of the department of art history and an associate professor of modern and contemporary art at the University of Southern California, where he teaches courses on 20th-century American art and the history of photography. Meyer was the curator for "Paul Cadmus: The Sailor Trilogy" at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1996 and served as a postdoctoral fellow at the Getty Research Institute in 1998. He is the editor of Representing the Passions: Histories, Bodies, Visions (Getty Research Institute, 2003).
The Charles C. Eldredge Prize, named in honor of the former director of the museum (1982–1988), is sponsored by the American Art Forum, a patrons' support organization. This annual award, initiated in 1989, seeks to recognize originality and thoroughness of research, excellence of writing and clarity of method. Single-author, book-length publications in the field of American art history appearing within the three previous calendar years are eligible. It is especially meant to honor those authors who deepen or focus debates in the field or who broaden the discipline by reaching beyond traditional boundaries. The deadline for 2004 nominations is Dec. 1, 2003.
Recent Eldredge Prize recipients include:
2002: Anthony W. Lee, Picturing Chinatown: Art and Orientalism in San Francisco (University of California Press, 2001)
2001: Jodi Hauptman, Joseph Cornell: Stargazing in the Cinema .(Yale University Press, 1999)
2000: Wanda M. Corn, The Great American Thing: Modern Art and National Identity, 1915–1935 (The University of California Press, 1999)
Further information about the Eldredge Prize and a complete list of past winners is available on the museum's Web site at AmericanArt.si.edu/education/opportunities-eldredge.cfm.
The museum's research programs include fellowships for pre- and postdoctoral scholars, extensive photographic collections documenting American art and artists, and unparalleled art research databases. An active publications program of books, catalogs and the journal American Art complements the museum's exhibitions and educational programs.
Eldredge Prize Lecture
On Thursday, Nov. 20 at 3 p.m., Richard Meyer will present the annual Eldredge Prize lecture, titled "Outlaws: Queer Art and Public Controversy Since the Culture Wars," in the Grand Salon at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, located on Pennsylvania Avenue at 17th Street N.W. This event is free and open to the public but reservations are required; call (202) 275-2313. For more information, call (202) 275-1557.
The Smithsonian American Art Museum collection began with gifts of art donated to the federal government in 1829 and has evolved into the world's most important American art holdings with approximately 40,000 artworks in all media spanning more than three centuries.
While the renovation of the museum's historic building continues, American Art offers a full program of exhibitions at its Renwick Gallery (Pennsylvania Avenue at 17th Street N.W.). For information about Renwick Gallery activities, call (202) 357-2700 or visit the museum's award-winning Web site at AmericanArt.si.edu.

GSA Appoints Frank Lalley Assistant Commissioner at Federal Technology Service
March 11, 1998
Contact: Bill Bearden
or Mary Rudbeck
WASHINGTON -- Frank Lalley will become the Assistant Commissioner, Office of Service Delivery at the U.S. General Services Administration's Federal Technology Service beginning March 16. In making the announcement, FTS Commissioner Dennis Fischer said that Lalley will lead the Federal government's transition to the FTS2001 long distance telecommunications service once contracts are awarded early this fall.
"Frank Lalley has a strong commitment to customer service, is well known in the federal information technology community, and commands a great deal of respect in the telecommunications industry," Fischer said. "We are thrilled to have him on board as we prepare to unveil the FTS 2001 program with its worldwide coverage and broad range of customer options."
Lalley , who also relinquishes his chair of the Interagency Management Council for Federal Telecommunications this month, comes to GSA from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). At VA, Lalley has been Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Telecommunications since 1994, with responsibility for the VA's nationwide telecommunications network with a budget exceeding $120 million annually.
From 1990 to 1994, Lalley was the VA's Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary for Information Resources Policy and Oversight, overseeing modernization of information systems and facilities to provide world-class, customer-focused service to veterans and their families. He was Director of the VA's Office of Information Management and Statistics from 1987 to 1990.
Between 1975 and 1987, Lalley directed numerous analyses and advised high-level officials on worldwide energy supplies, demand and prices as an employee of the Department of Energy and, earlier, the U.S. Federal Energy Administration. He was a civilian employee of the U.S. Army from 1969 to 1974 and a commissioned officer in the U.S. Air Force between 1965 and 1969.
Lalley holds a Bachelor of Management Engineering degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and a Master's of Business Administration from Southern Illinois University. He has also completed course work in George Washington University's Doctoral Program in Business Administration.
FTS 2001 long-distance services will be delivered through multiple contracts that will leverage the high-volume and significant purchasing power of the federal government to provide agencies with comprehensive long-distance voice, data and video services at substantial savings. Worth $5 billion to $8 billion, they will be the federal government's largest non-defense contracts.
In fiscal year 1997, the FTS 2000 system served 1.7 million users, carrying a total of 5.9 billion minutes of voice traffic at rates as low as 2 cents per minute for on-network traffic.

BREVARD N.C. – First-year coach Adam Malloy and the Brevard College cross country teams are set to open the 2013 campaign when they travel to Spartanburg, S.C. to run in the Eye Opener Invitational at Milliken Park Friday.
In the 2012 Eye Opener, the men finished eighth in the team standings, while individuals Dakota Poindexter and Josh Mower finished in the top-35. Angela Canale paced the women's side following a 32nd place finish while the Tornados finished 11th.
On the men's side, senior Patrick Helmick was named to the Preseason All-SAC second-team, while the Tornados were selected fifth in the preseason coaches' poll.
Helmick will be one of seven seniors to lead the experienced Tornados men's squad. The Milford, Del., native finished the 2012 slate with five top-20 finishes.
Seniors Erik Gibbs and Chris Shore will add depth to the team, while BC will rely on Shawn Deese and Shane Shelton to provide support to the veteran staff.
Sophomore Hannah Cook and senior Canale were named to the Preseason All-SAC first-team while the Tornados were selected seventh in the preseason coaches' poll on the women's side.
Cook, last year's SAC Freshman of the Year, and Canale, who had four top-10 finishes in 2012, will pace the Tornados as they were picked seventh and return three runners from last season.
Along with Canale and Cook, Heidi Kaartinen, Ashley Lowe, Carolina Christiansen and Olivia Fawcett will provide the depth for the team.
The women's team is slated to run the 5K starting at 6 p.m., while the men will tackle the 8K at 7 p.m.

Every cornerback that comes out of the Big 12 South deserves serious NFL consideration. Wall was tested week in and week out against some of the most prolific offenses in the nation and has done extremely well. Practicing against the amazing passing attack of Texas Tech cannot hurt either. Wall has a ton of experience as a cover corner and was a three year starter with the Red Raiders. Even as a freshman when he was not starting, Wall was productive. Although he was mostly relegated to special teams, it did not take long for everybody to see that he was going to be a good player. By his sophomore campaign in 2007 Wall was a starter and led the team with five interceptions. His success resulted in a variety of all-conference accolades. His junior campaign was just as productive, although the opposition was learning to throw away from Wall and that reduced his amount of interceptions. The story was more of the same in 2009. Wall did rank fourth on the team with 52 tackles during the regular season, but only picked off one pass. However, he easily led the team with 13 pass break ups and 14 passes defended. Wall has good enough size and speed to be a quality NFL corner. The pickings are pretty slim at that position in this class and that could move Wall up into the second round if he can separate himself from some other corners during Senior Week and at the NFL Combine. 2/15 Update: Wall was embarrassed a few times during the practices leading up to the East-West Shrine Game and his stock dropped considerably as a result. He is gifted athletically, but he failed to make plays and played a lot slower in practice than he usually looked while at Texas Tech. During the game itself he broke up three passes and tallied six tackles, but he needs to show in other workouts that his disappointing week was a fluke and not the norm if he wants to be drafted in the first four rounds.

Prediction: 4th Round
Poor practices at SR bowls are hard to overcome, but Wall is a player. If he can get drafted by the 4th, he will have no problem making the team. He made several key plays for us the last 2 seasons and 2 very hard hits that are highlight reel worthy for decades. He is an incredible athlete.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA--A preliminary hearing in a fatal hit and run case against suspect Jason Cox has been scheduled for Monday, at 8:30 a.m. in Rancho Cucamonga Superior Court, department R-18. Cox was arrested last September on suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, as well as a hit-and-run resulting in death of injury, police said. He is out on bail.
A white utility truck hit Michael Vega, 25, of Norco about 6:40 p.m. Aug. 28 on Foothill Boulevard east of Ramona Avenue. Vega died shortly thereafter. Sheriff's deputies arrested Cox at his home in Rancho Cucamonga.
The main evidence that drew deputies to Cox involved heavy damage to the front of the truck and paint that appeared on Vega's bike and the truck, according to deputies.

Library and information science education 2.0 : guiding principles and models of best practice. Interview with Lyn Hay.
Partridge, Helen Library and information science education 2.0 : guiding principles and models of best practice. Interview with Lyn Hay. (Unpublished)

In 2005, Stephen Abram, vice president of Innovation at SirsiDynix, challenged library and information science (LIS) professionals to start becoming "librarian 2.0." In the last few years, discussion and debate about the "core competencies" needed by librarian 2.0 have appeared in the "biblioblogosphere" (blogs written by LIS professionals). However, beyond these informal blog discussions few systematic and empirically based studies have taken place. A project funded by the Australian Learning and Teaching Council fills this gap. The project identifies the key skills, knowledge, and attributes required by "librarian 2.0." Eighty-one members of the Australian LIS profession participated in a series of focus groups. Eight themes emerged as being critical to "librarian 2.0": technology, communication, teamwork, user focus, business savvy, evidence based practice, learning and education, and personal traits. Guided by these findings interviews with 36 LIS educators explored the current approaches used within contemporary LIS education to prepare graduates to become "librarian 2.0". This video presents an example of 'great practice' in current LIS education as it strives to foster web 2.0 professionals.

Conservative media unleash violent, revolutionary rhetoric
Research ››› ››› ERIC HANANOKI
Numerous conservative media figures have called for a "revolution" or have invoked violent rhetoric while discussing the Obama administration or government in general. In addition to encouraging violence, such violent rhetoric has also included suggesting Obama's policies were doing violence to the American people and depicting Obama as a rapist, spousal abuser, or mobster.
Since President Obama's inauguration, numerous conservative media figures have called for a "revolution" or have invoked violent rhetoric while discussing the Obama administration or government in general. In addition to encouraging violence, such violent rhetoric has also included suggesting Obama's policies were doing violence to the American people and depicting Obama as a rapist, spousal abuser, or mobster.
Media Matters for America has previously noted that since Obama's inauguration, conservative media figures have made ominous, even apocalyptic claims about the impact policies pursued by Obama and other progressives might have on the United States; warned of impending socialism, fascism, communism, Nazism, McCarthyism, or Marxism under the Obama administration; asserted or suggested that under Obama, U.S. sovereignty may give way to a one-world government; and warned their audiences that Obama's administration will seize their guns. Media Matters has compiled the following examples of revolutionary or violent rhetoric:
- During the April 9 edition of his Fox News program, Glenn Beck claimed to be imitating Obama while pouring liquid from a gasoline can -- which he later stated was water -- on an "average American." Beck said during his demonstration: "President Obama, why don't you just set us on fire? ... We didn't vote to lose the republic."
- In an April 9 NewsBusters.org post, associate editor Noel Sheppard repeatedly used the acronym WACO -- which he wrote stood for the "War Against Conservative Opinion" -- in discussing how "liberal bloggers blamed right-leaning media members -- in particular, Fox News's Glenn Beck -- for the shooting deaths of three police officers in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania."
- On the April 1 edition of Fox News' Hannity, nationally syndicated radio host Mark Levin said of "the Obama plan" for the economy: "I view it as economic child abuse. I've been calling it that for the longest time because our children are being compelled to work for generations that will be dead for money that's already spent. Their opportunities will be limited. Their liberty will be limited. And we're enslaving them to a future that our ancestors didn't create for us."
- In a March 31 post on RedState.com, while discussing a Washington county's ban on certain kinds of dishwasher detergent, managing editor Erick Erickson wrote of politicians: "At what point do the people tell the politicians to go to hell? At what point do they get off the couch, march down to their state legislator's house, pull him outside, and beat him to a bloody pulp for being an idiot?" Erickson later added: "Were I in Washington State, I'd be cleaning my gun right about now waiting to protect my property from the coming riots or the government apparatchiks coming to enforce nonsensical legislation."
- During the March 31 edition of Fox News' Your World with Neil Cavuto, while discussing Obama's foreign and economic policies, Fox News contributor Dick Morris said: "Those crazies in Montana who say, 'We're going to kill ATF agents because the U.N.'s going to take over' -- well, they're beginning to have a case."
- During the March 30 edition his Fox News program, Beck aired a graphic portraying Obama and Democrats as vampires and said, "The government is full of vampires, and they are trying to suck the lifeblood out of the economy." Beck then suggested "driv[ing] a stake through the heart of the bloodsuckers."
- On the March 26 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, co-hosts Brian Kilmeade and Gretchen Carlson hosted Michael Franzese, the former caporegime of La Cosa Nostra's Colombo crime family, to discuss similarities in the way Democratic leaders and progressive figures are "operating" and "the way we used to operate on the street." Kilmeade began the segment by asking, "So, is this a big stretch to think that, all of a sudden, the Washington, D.C., has become our Godfather?" Asked by Carlson what he would "call" Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, Franzese replied that Geithner is "like an underboss to me. I mean, he's doing the work of, you know, the whole family, and he's kind of the guy out front, and looking to exercise control." When Kilmeade later asked how House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) would fit "in the mob," Franzese replied that Pelosi and Frank are like "the lady and the guy that Obama is kind of stuck with to appease the rest of the family," and he also referred to Obama as "the boss."
- During the March 25 edition of Sean Hannity's radio program, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) told Hannity she is calling for "an orderly revolution" so that Democrats can't "achieve their ends any longer." In response to Bachmann's statement, Hannity said: "Well, I'm inspired by what you're saying, Congresswoman, and I only hope that your fellow Republicans get as energetic and as outspoken as you are here." From Hannity's radio program:
BACHMANN: At this point, the American people -- it's like Thomas Jefferson said, a revolution every now and then is a good thing. We are at the point, Sean, of revolution. And by that, what I mean -- an orderly revolution, where the people of this country wake up and get up and make a decision that this is not going to happen on their watch. It won't be our children and grandchildren that are in debt. It is we who are in debt. We will be bankrupt in this country inside of 10 years if we don't get a grip. And we can't let the Democrats achieve their ends any longer.
HANNITY: Well, I'm inspired by what you're saying, Congresswoman, and I only hope that your fellow Republicans get as energetic and as outspoken as you are here.
Bachmann later stated: "[W]e can never forget that the Founders were rebelling against a governmental authority that abused their taxation power. And that was the tyranny. That's exactly what's happening right now. And we have to -- we have to rise up and say, 'No more. Not on my watch. No more.' " At the conclusion of the interview, Hannity encouraged Bachmann to "keep going, and I promise you, as they attack you, you're going to have conservatives like myself in your corner, I promise you." Hannity then added: "Boy, that was inspiring."
- In a March 12 column for the conservative news site WorldNetDaily.com, Erik Rush wrote that Obama is a "closet communist" and "pathological liar." Rush then compared Obama to a rapist, writing: "A few weeks ago, a television commentator in the alternative press suggested that Obama seemed to be attempting to 'ram it through,' in reference to the urgency with which he promoted the stimulus bill. Indeed -- like the proverbial cellblock rapist, our president is 'ramming' as much of his Marxist agenda down our collective throats as quickly as he can. One would think he fears that someone might come around the corner at any second and catch him." Rush's column was noted on Media Matters editor Terry Krepel's ConWebWatch blog.
- In a March 9 post on FoxNews.com's Fox Forum, Sheppard defended Rush Limbaugh's repeated statements that he hopes Barack Obama fails by invoking secessionists during the Civil War, writing:
Is it really wrong or even unpatriotic to want the president and/or his policies to fail? Hasn't this likely been the case in this country since its very birth?
It is an indisputable, historical fact that many Colonists did not support independence from England, and were hoping with all their heart and all their soul that President George Washington would fail.
Less than a century later, likely half the nation hoped President Abraham Lincoln didn't succeed in defeating the Confederacy.
The argument today is that wishing ill upon President Obama is unpatriotic because of the fragile condition of our economy -- but it is a metaphysical certitude that Washington and Lincoln presided over a much weaker nation than what we are facing in 2009.
- In his March 9 column for WorldNetDaily, actor and political activist Chuck Norris wrote: "How much more will Americans take? When will enough be enough? And, when that time comes, will our leaders finally listen or will history need to record a second American Revolution? We the people have the authority according to America's Declaration of Independence." Norris also wrote, "On Glenn Beck's radio show last week, I quipped in response to our wayward federal government, 'I may run for president of Texas.' That need may be a reality sooner than we think."
- Interviewing Norris on the March 3 edition of his radio program, according to a transcript posted on his website, Beck stated: "Somebody asked me this morning, they said, you really believe that there's going to be trouble in the future. And I said, if this country starts to spiral out of control and, you know, and Mexico melts down or whatever, if it really starts to spiral out of control. ... Americans will, they just, they won't stand for it. There will be parts of the country that will rise up. And they said, where's that going to come from? And I said Texas, it's going to come from Texas." Beck then asked Norris, "Do you agree with that, Chuck, or not?" to which Norris replied, "Oh, yeah. You know, Texas is a republic, you know. ... [W]e could break off from the union if we wanted to." Beck responded, "You do, you call me," adding: "Seriously, you do. I don't mind having that lone star on my flag. I really don't mind it. I've been out with a seam ripper looking at my flag going, I don't know, California could go."
- In his March 4 WorldNetDaily column, Burt Prelutsky compared Obama to a spousal abuser, writing: "Frankly, I don't know why anybody continues to hold Obama in high esteem. Maybe it's like those women who marry charming fellows only to discover after the vows have been exchanged that he's an abuser. In spite of the black eyes and split lips, the ladies are just too embarrassed to call the cops and have their friends and relatives discover what a dunderhead they've been."
- In his February 25 WorldNetDaily column, Ellis Washington compared Obama to a mobster, writing:
How does the legend of Faust apply to [Republican Louisiana] Gov. [Bobby] Jindal's refusal to accept all of the $100 million dollars Obama is offering the state of Louisiana as part of it's share of stimulus package money. President Obama, like the suave, cosmopolitan Mephistopheles, has not only crafted and passed the largest wealth confiscation in the history of the world, but upon closer examination of the 1,000-plus pages of this bloated, complex and convoluted text, the devil is truly in the details.
It's like the wedding scene of "The Godfather," Part I, where Michael Corleone recalled his father (Vito Corleone) doing business through his muscleman, Lou Cabrachi: "Either your signature on this contract, or your brains on this contract." President Barack Corleone's so-called $787 billion economic stimulus package has offered America a deal with the devil.
- During the February 20 edition of Clear Channel's The War Room with Quinn & Rose, a caller discussed a proposed "insurance bill for gun owners":
CALLER: I don't feel -- it doesn't matter if they pass an insurance bill for gun owners or not. They're not getting the guns, flat-out. I mean, that's just how it is. And they'll find out what a sizable force is once they encounter a group of citizens that own guns. I think that's one reason they're attacking the First Amendment is to stop you guys from warning the rest of the public.
Co-host Jim Quinn replied: "Oh, sure, sure. I mean, it's the crux of all the amendments. As a matter of fact, the Founding Fathers argued that the Second Amendment should have been the first. Because without the second, there is no first. Thanks, Travis. Yeah, when you hear that Quinn's guns have been confiscated, you will know that Quinn is dead."
- The slogan for RightWingNews.com -- a conservative blog run by Townhall.com columnist John Hawkins -- is: "Kneecapping Barack Obama at every opportunity."
