"WHAT THE FUCK FUCK FUCK HAVE THEY DONE TO ME PUB?!" - The Macc Lads, "My Pub"
Vertical Drinking Establishments are the Antichrist. If they serve beer in Hell, it will be horrible Continental piss-water that's like making love in a canoe, and it will be served in one of these horrible, nasty establishments, the likes of which are as welcome in any rational drinker's life - and any town centre - as blood on the toilet paper.
Traditionally, a British Pub was a place where you could go, sit down, talk to people, drink nice beer that tastes of something in a cheerful, convivial evening, and people knew when to stop. The beer was inevitably local and you got pleasantly tipsy and were served by people who knew when to cut you off so you don't make a drunken fight-getting-into exhibition of yourself. There are still a few places like this, truth be told, but the Vertical Drinking Establishment has taken over. Because Vertical Drinking Establishments are nothing like a real pub; they're basically a machine for separating barcode-shirted braying Sun-reading asshats and their screeching Fifty Shades of Grey reading girlfriends from their money as expeditiously as possible and putting it into the pockets of faceless big companies so they can buy up more pubs and assimilate them likewise. They are astoundingly good at it as well.
They're called Vertical Drinking Establishments, incidentally, because one of the first things to go in the metamorphosis from proper boozer to public house of horrors is the seating. It's drastically cut back or reduced to a few designer stools, none near the bar. The reason is simple - more space to pack people in, and also because studies show that people who sit down drink more slowly. People who stand up drink more, and faster, and don't have to expend the effort of standing up to trot over to the bar to get more ale in.
Whoa! Did I say ale? I meant lager. Or alcopops. My bad. These places don't serve anything other than lager, alcopops, or spirits. There is a very good reason for this. Because the idea of serving beer that tastes of something causes people to stop, and savour it, and while they're not savouring it, they're not buying more beer. So they serve uniformly horrible stuff that you have to toss down your gullet in case your taste buds touch it and declare independence. They also serve spirits, because a measure of same is gone in a couple of seconds. Sorry, no nice single malt whiskies here. We're talking Jack Daniels and Smirnoff and Sambuca. Nein danke. Basically, cheap shite that only exists to allow the mockney-accented wankers that make these place's clientele pose as hard somehow and brag about how much they can drink. Sold, of course, at high prices.
Then there's the background music. They turn it way up so you have to shout to be heard. Because people who are talking to each other aren't buying drinks. The unmistakeable thumping of pop-dance-chart drivel or the dreary wubwubwubwub of dubstep coming from within also acts as an attract mode to people outside, who think it must be a cool place to go and gives it a bit of a club vibe, in a way. Once inside, they can be sold more fizzy lager and tart fuel at £4.50 a chuck. And if they run out of cash, not to worry, there's usually a cashpoint (one of those odious ones with a £1.85 surcharge every use, natch) inside as well. Or they can just bugger off and hit up another such dive. The background noise forces up the volume of conversation so it sounds busier than it is from outside, thus attracting more punters.
Naturally, come chucking out time, which usually occurs in a cascade between 1.30 am and 3.00 am, as different places chuck out at different times, you've got loads of mobile phone salesman types disgorging onto the streets and converging on the friendly local kebab van. Here begins the fun! Because these worthies are all full of fizzy lager and E numbers, disgruntlement because their bird's been looked at, and then are getting down their neck badly undercooked grease-riddled mystery meat kebabs or warmed over Tesco Horseburgers... well, what goes down must come up. In High Wycombe there was a bit where two Vertical Drinking Establishments - The Litten Tree, now a Yates' Wine Lodge, and Butlers, faced each other. At about 2.30 am there was a barf belt throughout the town at a radius of exactly sixty yards from this nexus, and feet had to watch where they went. The lager, disgruntlement, and dissatisfaction also manifests in the form of crime and anti social behaviour and pitched battles between drunkards, who would square up to one another sucking their teeth and full of Stella and egotism while their womenfolk, clad in skirts wider than long and super-sized heels with a blocky platform bit at the front, would try to drag them off before going at it hammer and tongs with each other. These descendants of pirates and fishwives would then find themselves separated and nicked, hopefully. Or they'd wander down residential streets singing football chants. And no doubt the next morning would get up horribly hung over, a lot poorer, and convinced that they had a well good night.
Then along comes the Government, spots that town centres are now hotbeds of depravity and bodily fluids after dark, decides Something Must Be Done and puts in place minimum alcohol pricing. So now sensible drinkers like myself, who don't think it's fun to pick fights while drunk, and who don't throw up in taxis or urinate against lampposts on Shoreditch High Street after a night oot on the tap, get penalised, and due to the roaring success of this Vertical Drinking Establishment business model, which has more in common with a fast food franchise than a social centre, pubs where one can actually drink stuff that tastes of something, converse with folks, and actually enjoy oneself, are very much on the way out. Upon where the big chains buy them up and turn them into more Vertical Drinking Establishments.
They also, by dint of their success and having lots of money from being part of big chains, can then afford high-powered lawyers to defend them at licencing hearings against the complaints that rack up over them. Which makes them a bit like herpes, really - once your town's got them, you'll never get rid. But seriously, in all fairness, the only thing worse than a Vertical Drinking Establishment is a pub with a flat roof.

Prince Charles Hesitates To Drink Beer
His son, Prince Harry, has recently suffered the consequences of going tipsy and, then, out of control. That is why, perhaps, Prince Charles, during his recent walkabout in Ludlow, Shropshire, had to be persuaded to sample a half-pint of golden ale.
It was 71-year-old cellarman Mike Sergeant, who managed to convince the Prince to drink the local brew, Ludlow Gold. Prince Charles was on his way to the St. Laurence's Church, during a town centre tour, when Sergeant approached him respectfully and offered a glass of beer. After a few words were exchanged, the Prince gathered the courage to take a couple of sips of the beer. Afterwards, he is supposed to have said, "My God, that's good stuff."
Although the Prince was involved in a scuffle with McDonald's over fast food, he could not resist the pull of the beer despite the fact that his act went against the Royal protocol. However, since his church visit was imminent, the Prince could not have more of the golden liquid even though he liked the taste of it.

Interstate 575 (I-575) is an Interstate Highway spur route in the United States, which branches off Interstate 75 in Kennesaw and connects the metro Atlanta area with the north Georgia mountains, extending 30.97 miles (49.84 km). I-575 is also the unsigned State Route 417 and is cosigned as SR 5. I-575 begins in northern Cobb County near Kennesaw and goes mostly through Cherokee County, ending at its northern border with Pickens County, where it continues as SR 515.
It is also the Phillip M. Landrum Memorial Highway in honor of Phillip M. Landrum (1907–1990), who was a U.S. Representative from Georgia.
Route description[edit]
For almost all of its length, I-575 has two lanes in each direction, with a road median of grass, along with crepe myrtle (a locally-common landscaping tree) or wildflowers, both of which are summer-flowering. Each direction has one truck lane for climbing uphill (mile 12 to 13 northbound, mile 10 to 9 southbound), two extended acceleration lanes (north from Towne Lake Parkway and south from Marietta Highway), and two auxiliary lanes (connecting Bells Ferry and Chastain Roads).
The city of Holly Springs recently annexed land to Sixes Road. Other cities that have annexed I-575 include Canton and Ball Ground.
I-575 crosses the Little River between Woodstock and Holly Springs, and has four bridges over the Etowah River in northeastern Canton, as it flows under the southern half of the Riverstone Parkway (former SR 5) exit. It also crosses Noonday Creek between Barrett Parkway and Chastain Road, at the northeast corner of Town Center at Cobb regional mall. That stream roughly follows the freeway northward on the east side of the road, passing alongside the northbound ramp to SR 92, and then crossing back under to the northwest just before Towne Lake Parkway.
At the Canton and Holly Springs exit, the two city limits meet. Here the road (old SR 5) was realigned to cross 575 at a more perpendicular angle when I-575 was constructed. This left two dead-end streets: Hiram Way in Holly Springs, and Travis Tritt Lane in Canton. Just north of here, I-575 crosses Univeter Road.
Like I-985, I-575 was mostly constructed as a suburban spur highway, intended to serve an undeveloped area for future settlement, rather than as one to relieve traffic, or to link I-75 to an existing city or large town. It has since accelerated land development and population growth in the area far beyond what GDOT predicted, essentially causing its own traffic. (After just 20 years, it carried as many cars per day as it was expected to in 40 years.)
The first stage of I-575 was constructed in 1979 from I-75 to SR 92 near Woodstock and was opened to traffic on October 16, 1980. The next section to Georgia 20 began construction in 1981, and was opened on March 29, 1985 as far north as exit 11 (now mile 20). The section between the original exit 8 (now 16A) and exit 10 (now 19) was originally part of the Canton Bypass (SR 20), which was constructed in 1978. The final portion of I-575 to past Howell Bridge Road and SR 372 opened later, and that extended the highway to its present length of 31 miles (50 km), although the northernmost one mile (1.6 km) given in this length was not constructed up to Interstate Highway standards, since it extends past a surface ("at-grade") intersection. This final portion north of Canton was constructed of concrete rather than asphalt, and narrow black lines run on either side of the white lane markings.
In 2000, Georgia switched over from a sequential exit numbering system to a mileage-based exit numbering system.[3]
The road was last repaved in summer 2009, with funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
Auxiliary lanes[edit]
In February 2006, GDOT let two bids to add auxiliary lanes in both directions on the road shoulder, in between two pairs of short-spaced exits. The larger project was in Woodstock between Georgia 92 and Towne Lake Parkway, where nearly two million dollars were spent. This was in a mainly grassy area next to a recreational vehicle dealership on the east (northbound) side. On the opposite side, it required a noise barrier wall north of Dupree Road because of its proximity to existing homes. The other bid was for a much shorter distance of just a few yards or meters on the northeast side of Canton, between SR 20 (Cumming Highway) and SR 5 Business (Riverstone Parkway).
Relocation of State Route 5[edit]
I-575 is now co-signed throughout its length with SR 5, which was completely removed from its former alignment in 1985–86 over a nearly 70-mile (110 km) stretch from Marietta all the way to north of Ellijay—far beyond the I-575 terminal point. SR 205 was also deleted when I-575 opened in Cherokee County in 1985, returning what is now the northernmost part of Bells Ferry Road to local responsibility. Part of its old route was briefly designated by a state project route number that appeared on maps as SR 754. This mostly consisted of a widening project planned on the route. The counties along the way did not want to fund it since the route had been state-maintained, and then returned to county maintenance in 1986. When Woodstock, Georgia rejected that widening project (as it would have destroyed its downtown area), SR 754 was truncated south of SR 92, and it was fully turned back in 2001 when the entire project was completed. State route 754 was not signed; however, it still continues to appear on Google Maps and other Web mapping services as of 2009[update].
Most of the former SR 5 did not get such treatment, and all of it was originally deleted except a portion in Canton, Georgia designated as SR 5 Business and another part that joined SR 372 to the new route using part of the old route. Another such SR 5 Business was added from old Georgia 5 in Ball Ground in 1989, completing a business loop through Ball Ground that is still largely covered by Georgia 372. Georgia SR 5 continues northward co-signed with SR 515, Corridor A of the Appalachian Development Highway System. Along this route, SR 5 and SR 5 Alternate have been abandoned by the state and left to the counties and cities to maintain. The Georgia Northeastern Railroad still follows much of the old route.
SR 20 exit[edit]
The I-575 and SR 20 interchange was originally a half-trumpet/half diamond interchange. Since SR 20 has always been a heavily traveled east-west highway, traffic buildup was a common occurrence. When Sembler Properties initiated plans to construct Canton Marketplace in conjunction with a much larger mixed-use plan (Canton Place), developers sought to re-design the interchange for a more effective design. In 2009, work on the new interchange was completed and has a full diamond interchange with one trumpet to I-575 South from SR 20 West and to Main Street from I-575 North. This is effective because it eliminates the use of traffic signals for two left-turning lanes thereby reducing traffic buildup on the two-lane road in front of Canton Place.
The southern part of I-575 was slated to be widened to a total of six through lanes in the next few years, as part of the Northwest Corridor HOV/BRT plan from the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority (GRTA). The extra lane in each direction would extend up to Sixes Road, and was planned to be an HOV/HOT lane, with special exits at smaller roads that currently do not have any direct access. GRTA proposes bus rapid transit along the route.
There would also be separate new HOV ramps built to southbound and from northbound I-75. That highway was proposed to have eight lanes added to it, with one pair going straight to I-575. All widening on I-575 would be done in the median.
In 2009, the plan was scaled-back to include two reversible lanes on I-75, with one extending up I-575.
Ridgewalk Parkway / Rope Mill Road[edit]
A new exit (designated exit "9") was approved in October 2005 by GDOT at Ridgewalk Parkway (formerly Rope Mill Road), between Towne Lake Parkway and Sixes Road. Projected to cost $22 million, the new exit will consist of a full diamond interchange and a widened overpass, to benefit the Ridgewalk commercial development on private land adjacent to the new exit.[4] In addition, the project is part of a greater plan to create a northern bypass of Woodstock, connecting north of downtown to Arnold Mill Road, in theory helping to relieve some of the congestion in the traffic-prone downtown area. The current east/west connection through downtown is restricted to two lanes, since recent development was allowed that blocked one-way Mill Street from being extended eastward (which would have allowed Arnold Mill Road / Towne Lake Parkway to carry only westbound traffic through downtown).
During construction of this section of I-575 in the early 1980s, the current overpass was constructed to provide access to private property and the now-defunct Little River Wildlife Management Area, which was later abandoned by the state. The bridge was also a connection to a severed alignment of "new" Rope Mill Road west of I-575, which originally ran on a north/south alignment from Woodstock to Lebanon (locally known as Toonigh) before the bridge over the Little River was removed in the early 1990s. The southernmost part of that alignment of Rope Mill Road was realigned eastward through forest land so as to meet Ridgewalk Parkway across from the northern end of Woodstock Parkway. This was done to accommodate the new northbound entrance ramp, and opened in early October 2011.
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) officials had earlier rejected the plan due to its proximity to two other exits. FHWA later approved the new exit after forcing GDOT to add auxiliary lanes all the way to and from the next exit in both directions, including the cost of widening the Little River bridges, and the removal of hillsides, as well as metal walls designed to block noise rather than for their looks. There had also been a plan to put only a half-diamond exit on the north side of the road, using Woodstock Parkway on the east side and a new access road on the west side to connect it to Towne Lake, which would then have its ramps on the north side removed. Woodstock Parkway would have become northbound-only, with the new road being southbound only. This was objected to by residents who would have been adjacent to the new road.[5]
Sixes Road widening[edit]
Sixes Road was widened from a two-lane road to a four-lane divided highway west of I-575 to Bells Ferry Road, where it continues into the BridgeMill development. The short section east of I-575, to where it ends at old SR 5, has also been widened to four lanes. In 2013, the bridge crossing over I-575 was widened to bring it to four lanes. I-575's ramps were also expanded as well. In addition, a larger shoulder was constructed going north from the new Rope Mill exit.

In New Hampshire Insurance Co., et al., v. MF Global, Inc., Index No. 601621/09 (Sup Ct, NY County, Oct. 5, 2010), Justice Bernard J. Fried granted summary judgment to MF Global, Inc. ("MF Global"), formerly one of the world's largest non-bank futures brokerages, paving the way for it to collect on an insurance claim covering a $141.5 million loss it suffered when a rogue broker made unauthorized overnight wheat trades in 2008. The court found that the broker, Evan Dooley ("Dooley"), was an "associated person" to MF Global, and, thus, was an employee of MF Global by law. Therefore, insurers could not refuse to cover MF Global's loss based on the contention that Dooley was not actually an employee covered under the primary insurance policy (the "Policy"). The court further found the losses sustained by MF Global as a result of Dooley's unauthorized trades were "direct losses" as required under the Policy.
The case stemmed from a situation that shook investor confidence in MF Global and resulted in heavy losses and an overhaul of management. Dooley executed large, unauthorized overnight trades on wheat futures contracts through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange ("CME"). During the evening of February 26, 2008, Dooley built up a large and unauthorized position in wheat commodities in anticipation of a fall in prices, trading well in excess of his margin. He entered into a large number of "sell contracts" for various commodities, thus creating an "open position" that could be liquidated by entering into corresponding "buy contracts." If the market price for the commodity drops, Dooley could purchase the commodity for less than the price of the sell contracts and, thus, the difference would be booked as a trading gain.

text: The contrary spirits of Sinclair Lewis and Thomas Pynchon, as well as of John Kennedy Toole, hover over this unruly first novel: a satirical mock-epic of Middle America and, at least in part, a boldly imagined allegory of the struggles of American labor. The story's told by an admiring "disciple" of John Kaltenbrunner, a farm boy who grows up fatherless and friendless in the town of Baker (where, years before, Kaltenbrunner päre had discovered prehistoric remains—a fact that eventually, and surprisingly, figures in the novel's action). Beginning with a sly Prologue in which his protagonist's birth is "explained" in a manner reminiscent of frontier tall-tales, Egolf contrives a deliriously overheated story of an introverted and stubborn outcast whose mistreatment by disapproving neighbors transforms him into a militant workers'-rights advocate. Egolf writes knowledgeably, at times lyrically, of the exhausting monotony and compensatory satisfactions of hard manual labor, while simultaneously exhausting the reader with over-the-top accounts of Kaltenbrunner's pitched battles with Baker's smugly complacent vested interests. The climax occurs when Our Hero, having been driven from his home, returns as a trash collector and not long afterward organizes his fellow workers for the final conflict—which ends in a cemetery. The wonderfully named Lord of the Barnyard achieved US publication in a roundabout way, its globetrotting young author having been"discovered" and sponsored by French writer Patrick Modiano. The novel appeared first in England, but for all its narrative energy and impressive knowledge of the workaday world, Egolf's debut isn't the overlooked masterpiece some are calling it: Egolf too frequently fails to dramatize, indulging instead in lengthy (and, to be fair, frequently hilarious) summary jeremiads. And, thank heaven, his book is much more than an imitation of the overrated Confederacy of Dunces. Egolf has a real subject and the ability and will to write about it passionately.

Steamboat Springs With only her headlight splitting the seemingly endless darkness along the grueling dirt and rock trail, Betsy Kalmeyer searched for the comforting lights of the Sherman aid station at 3 a.m. last Saturday.
The local runner was 70 miles into the grueling Hardrock 100, but with several steep climbs and one female runner still in front of her, Kalmeyer wasn't planning on resting her weary legs for too long once she reached it.
"I walked into the aid station and I saw Ruth (Zollinger) sitting there. They were working on her feet, so I walked past her and sat down to eat," Kalmeyer said.
She wanted to take her time and not rush too fast, but the veteran of the race also knew how important it was to beat Zollinger out of the tent and take the all-important lead headed into the final 30 miles of the race.
"I think she had some soup and hot cocoa," said her pacer, Tim Varner of Flagstaff, Ariz. "But once she left that aid station she really took off."
Kalmeyer had fallen behind early in the race as a group of six women blew out of the start with hopes of breaking the course record.
Kalmeyer was the sixth woman to arrive at the first aid station and seventh at the second stop as the runners in front of her pushed the event's record pace.
When the racers reached Ouray, however, Kalmeyer started a slow and steady climb from sixth place to the top of the pack. She passed two women between mile 43 and mile 49.7, and then she moved past two more from 49.7 to 57.1. By the time she reached Handies Peak, the physician's assistant from Steamboat Springs was closing in on the top spot.
"One of the volunteers in the Sherman tent said something in my eyes clicked when I saw Ruth sitting there," Kalmeyer said. "All of the sudden something was different."
Up to that point all of the runners where well ahead of the record pace Kalmeyer had set in 1999. But now the local runner wasn't concerned about records or times she just wanted to take the lead and to win the race.
Kalmeyer admits she left the Sherman stop quickly hoping to put some distance between her and the second-place runner. With four more climbs still left along the course, Kalmeyer didn't want to give Zollinger any hope of catching her at the finish line.
"There were two headlamps behind us and we guessed that was Zollinger," Varner said. "When Betsy saw them she really took off."
At that point, Kalmeyer had expected to spend another 12 hours on the trial, but the pressure of what was behind her kept pushing the 40-year-old's limits.
"I've never been with a runner (in a race like this) that went that fast," Varner said. "I had a hard time just trying to keep up with her, little lone set a pace for her."
It wasn't until Kalmeyer had reached the base of the Kendall Mountain ski area and was a mile from town that she glanced at her watch.
"I looked over at my pacer (at that point she had shifted to Rick Blackford of Ouray) and said 'we still had a chance to break 30 hours,'" Kalmeyer said. "So we went as fast as we could in the final stretch."
Kalmeyer said that the idea of a women breaking the 30-hour mark in this race was thought to be unbelievably unattainable. But with less than a mile to go, Kalmeyer still had a solid shot at the mark.
"She is just amazing," Varner said. "She is the first women in this race to ever break the mark."
Kalmeyer crossed the finish line in a time of 29 hours, 58 minutes to win her division and shatter her own personal record. She placed third overall in the race. Kalmeyer, who was one of four local runners to finish the event. Mike Ehrlich (40:35.07), Don Platt (43:48.36), and Dick Curtis (44:54.29) also ran in the event.
The winner Karl Meltzer had set anew record time form men by finishing the event in just 26 hours, 39 minutes. He also set a record for the least amount of down time in the aid stations by stopping for just 19 minutes during the journey. He was followed by Hans Put who completed the the 101.7 miles in 28 hours and 42 minutes.
The race, which has been called the toughest race in America by Outside Magazine, covers 33,000 feet of elevation and several notable mountain passes. The race begins and ends in Silverton at 9, 318 feet of elevation.
Kalmeyer has actually taken on the race four times in the past. She challenged the mountains in 1996, 1999, 2000 and 2001.
"After the first time I finished I said to myself, 'hey I can do that better," Kalmeyer said. "So I came back a year later and tried it again."
Kalmeyer maybe reestablishing her goals this year. The Hardrock is one of four 100-mile races she plans on taking part in this summer.
"The biggest challenge is preparing for the first one, now I should just be able to maintain it," Kalmeyer said.
Kalmeyer is planning on running in the Leadville 100 Aug 18-19, the Wasatch 100 Sept 8-9 and the Bear 100 Sept 28-29.
"It's what they call a Grand Slam in endurance racing," Kalmeyer said. "That's when you do four 100-milers in one year."
Kalmeyer is also trying to use her journey to raise food and awareness for the Lift-Up Food Bank. She has asked local business to fill a box full of food for each of the aid stations she stops at along the 400-mile journey. The boxes will then be donated to Lift-Up.

On occasion, a toilet's drainage stopper can have a bit of floating problem, in that it won't be totally airtight. This will make the stopper float upward, causing water to continuously drain out of the tank. Enter scrub brush to save the day (and the water bill...)!
This will clean the s**t out of everything.

First Look: Ichi Sushi + Ni Bar, New on Mission St.
After some soft-opening activity over the weekend, the new Ichi Sushi + Ni Bar (3283 Mission St.) is officially ready to go. Owners Erin and chef Tim Archuleta have been running the restaurant's predecessor, Ichi Sushi, across the way for just about four years to rave reviews and a very strong local following. The same focus on sustainable fish, inventive omakase and scary addictive fried chicken wings will continue at the new Ichi. But now, with double the square footage, there's room for the izakaya-style Ni Bar as well.
A 30-seat sushi bar takes up most of the front room. A chef's counter for omakase and a booze-bar-flanked dining room take up the back. As of press time, most of the walls are still waiting for their artwork, but a huge, distinctive mural by neighboring friend Erik Marinovich (see it here) depicts sushi etiquette without being too serious. "We wanted to make sure it didn't say 'don't do this, don't do that'," explains Erin. "So the end result is light-hearted." Adding to the fun of it all, former Range sommelier Ken Furusawa curates an impressive list of unusual sakes, shochus and beers. There is Miyasaka Junmai Sake Matinee (which is theoretically "great for day drinking" at just 12% alcohol), black-sugar shochu that tastes like agricole rum and the only Hitachino white ale on tap in the city. Now take a look at some of the best dishes at Ichi Sushi + Ni Bar in the slide show. And make note: the old Ichi is now closed in preparation for its big return as the Archuleta's new raw bar, sometime this spring.

A Trip Through Space for Boys and Girls (1954)
While flipping through the 1954 book A Trip Through Space I was struck by one aspect of the interstellar story that I've never noticed in a pre-Apollo book... a girl in space!
Here at Paleofuture we've looked at quite a few books that told children of the 1950s and 60s about the wondrous world of space travel in store for them. But I can honestly say that I've never noticed one that included girls in this fantastic, space-faring future.
Exploring Space, First Men to the Moon, Boytopia, The Complete Book of Space Travel; none of these depictions of future astronauts bothered to include women. A Trip Through Space was written by Catharine E. Barry, an associate curator at the Hayden Planetarium, but there isn't much information about her online. Any biographical information about Ms. Barry from readers is greatly appreciated.
Now, I know that pointing out gender inequalities of the 1950s isn't a particularly novel observation and I only own about half a dozen children's books from the 1950s and 60s that envision future space travel. So it's difficult for me to definitively say how common depictions of female astronauts were during this period without more extensive research. With that said, I suspect that the girl in A Trip Through Space is a rare depiction indeed.
I'm fascinated by what kind of stories we tell our children and how that shapes our society. The stories we hear as kids no doubt greatly influence our perspective on what's possible for the future, both globally and personally. Sally Ride became the first American woman in space* in 1983 -- the year I was born, in fact. What stories did Sally Ride hear growing up that set her on a path pursuing science? Growing up, how did she see herself fitting into the space program? As a 27 year old man who didn't grow up during the Space Age it's sometimes hard for me to gain personal perspective on things like this.
I emailed Virginia Postrel, author of The Future and Its Enemies, columnist at Bloomberg and editor of the website Deep Glamour so that I might better understand the gender politics of the time. When I moved to Los Angeles I had dinner with Virginia, her husband and Paul Boutin at Cafe 50s, where a copy of the 1959 kid's book You Will Go to the Moon hangs on the wall. Over dinner Virginia talked about how much she loved that book when she was a little girl. Virginia's email to me appears below.
When I was in kindergarten (roughly 1965), we had a time every day where we could look at books. My favorite books were You Will Go to the Moon (1959) and a book on the planets. I did read You Will Go to the Moon nearly every day, and I never noticed that the character in the book is a boy or that the text says, "You will be a space man." I only noticed that decades later when the book turned up on the wall of Cafe 50s and I later acquired a used copy. As a child I never explicitly aspired to be an astronaut. It was more that I assumed that in the future people would go into space, perhaps on business trips or as tourists. I never got to the details. I don't know that more women being represented would have had much effect on me, because I've never had much of a problem identifying with male role models, but it might have made a difference for other girls. Later, in the early 1970s, when I was 12 or 13 I watched Star Trek, which, of course, had plenty of female characters. The recurring ones were a switchboard operator, a nurse, and a secretary, but there were nonrecurring scientists, diplomats, historians, etc.
And it goes without saying that your comments about this time period -- educated or otherwise -- are more than welcome.
*The first woman in space was Russian Valentina Tereshkova in 1963.

Track List
Album Remarks & Appraisals:
This CD is the second of a series of seven traditional Zen 'shakuhachi' recordings released on the Tall Poppies label. Volumes 2 through 7, a total of over six hours of music, were all recorded in two consecutive afternoons. This is not such an extraordinary feat when the nature of the sacred Zen pieces are considered. The pieces on this recording are classical 'honkyoku', the "original pieces" of the Zen Buddhist Priests of Nothingness. The works function primarily as spiritual practice, an activity which transcends the concept of right and wrong. In other words, when performed as meditation, there are no mistakes. In 1980, Riley Lee, born to a Chinese father and Caucasian mother, became the first non-Japanese to attain the rank of 'dai shihan' (grand master) in the 'shakuhachi' tradition. He has recorded over 30 discs internationally.

CHICAGO – The Northern Illinois University softball team suffered a 2-0 setback to DePaul at Cacciatore Stadium Wednesday.
Jessica Sturm pitched well, scattering seven hits while allowing two runs. Unfortunately for NIU, the offense was unable to breakthrough against Blue Demon (29-19) pitcher Kirsten Verdun.
"They didn't really hit Jess that hard," said NIU head coach Christina Sutcliffe. "We had some defensive blunders that don't really show up on the scoreboard. Both runs really should've have scored.
"Offensively, their pitcher did a really nice job of mixing speed and keeping us off balance. We were guessing in the batter's box."
The Huskies (20-29) were held to three hits, with Amanda Sheppard, Nicole Gremillion and Jennifer Barnett each recording hits.
NIU's best scoring chance came in the top of the fourth. Down, 1-0, after DePaul plated a run in the bottom of the third, NIU had runners first and second with one out. However, Gremillion, who was at second, was thrown out at third when Shelby Miller reached on a fielder's choice. Sturm then lined out to end the inning.
The Blue Demons tacked on an insurance run in the bottom of the sixth before retiring the Huskies in the top of the seventh without incident.

Hope this is the right folder for this comment..
Love the new iPhone interface. BUT I think you made a mistake. We do not need a "Quick Add Task" bar under the search bar. That is messy and redundant, since there is already the ubiquitous "Add Task" button in the top right hand corner of the screen. Who really needs to quick add a task? Just click on the button already there and leave the interface clean. Please Thanks |
mlb32704 |
Agreed. Total waste of time and more importantly, a big waste of valuable space. We do not need a quick add task bar at the top of an iOS app.
Jake Toodledo Admin |
Thanks for the feedback. We will consider a way to disable this feature for people who don't want it. We added it because often it is necessary to add more than 1 tasks at a time, and it was pretty tedious to have to press the add button, type, press the save button, press the add button again, etc etc. This provides a much faster way to quickly add several tasks. From or analysis of how people use Toodledo, we saw that often multiple tasks are added at the same time, so we built this to make it quicker.

Why a Telephone Call?
At times it is necessary to reach a decision-maker quickly, particularly if they are about to make an important decision or if an urgent issue has come up that requires immediate action. That's the time to make a telephone call. You may not be able to speak directly to the decision-maker, but if the issue is urgent, your call will often have an impact.
If you are calling a political representative (MP, MPP, city councillor), be sure to tell them where you live. This identifies you as their constituent, which means that they are in government to represent you. They are interested in hearing from their constituents.
What to Say
Always limit your telephone call to one subject. Be brief and be specific. Let the decision-maker or the staff person you are speaking to know why you're calling, stating the action you would like the decision-maker to take on the issue, and asking where the decision-maker stands on the issue.
Regardless of where the decision-maker stands on an issue, be courteous. If the decision-maker does not support your issue, let him or her know you're disappointed. If the office does not know officially where the decision-maker stands on the issue, be sure to ask for a written response.

Super Bowl Experience Begins Long Before Kick-Off for Fans and Brands
ITHACA, NY — Long before the team matchups are even finalized, Super Bowl fans can begin rooting for their favorite — commercial, that is. More and more, advertisers are thinking outside the television box and putting their spots on social media ahead of the big game.
"It's all about one thing — engagement," says marketing expert Scott Hamula, who points out that pre-event leaking of Super Bowl ads gives client brands what they want, which is to stand out in advertising cluttered media.
"Just placing a commercial — debuting or recycled — in the Super Bowl doesn't cut it in this highly competitive environment, and that's both for sales in the marketplace and for consumer attention," says Hamula. "Pre-event leaking can garner a brand huge publicity through 'likes' and viral sharing on Facebook and Twitter, all of which more involves consumers, provides measurable results and creates momentum that can propel the commercial to achieve even higher viewership during, and after, the Super Bowl."
An associate professor and chair of the Department of Strategic Communication in the Roy H. Park School of Communications at Ithaca College, Hamula says that just because Super Bowl viewers may already have seen the ad elsewhere doesn't mean these fans will be taking advantage of commercial breaks to take a bathroom break.
"Just the opposite, in fact. This is the payoff. This is what they've been waiting for — the opportunity to see the ad air during the game and feel that in some way they were a part of making it happen."
Hamula notes that the recently announced formation of Nielsen Twitter TV Rating is one response to this growing trend of so-called second screen experiences. The new product will deliver a real-time social metric for measuring the dialogue and chatter on Twitter that is a result of television program viewing.
"Twitter is continuing to emerge as the go-to vehicle for expressing your thoughts about what you're seeing on TV."
To hear more of Scott Hamula's thoughts on Super Bowl XLVII advertising, contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com or (607) 274-1034.

Celebrating illustration, design, cartoon and comic art of the mid-20th century.
Tuesday, July 04, 2006
"You have to understand the construction first."
"Drawing, to me, is a great deal of mechanical ability. If you understand the construction of things, there's no problem in drawing. But you have to understand the construction first."
"For instance, a railroad boiler is a boiler, you know. It goes back and it comes down like this, with the firebox and so on. Once you have the basic shape those six wheels underneath are... you know, a child does that."
"Now, I have always refused to do nuts and bolts - except sometimes on those locomotives, I would do a few nuts and bolts. But reality comes from the feeling of the damn thing. If you understand the construction of the boat, and understand the man himself - who he is and what he looks like - you can get that over to the reader."
From the Noel Sickles interview in The Comics Journal #242.
3 comments:
Hah! Reading Noel Sickles explain how simple drawing is once you know the construction reminds me of the old Steve Martin routine about How To Make A Million Dollars Without Paying Taxes: "First, you make a million dollars. Then, don't pay taxes on it."
Thanks for another great Noel Sickles entry, Leif. I can't get enough of him.When you read the entire interview, David, you do get the sense that it might have been fueled by a liberal amount of "liquid inspiration", which may or may not have influenced the off-handedness of such remarks as the ones quoted here.
That possibility aside, I have to agree with Sickles' basic premise: too many illustrators do not have a good grounding in structural drawing and rely heavily on surface style and detail to hide that fact. I'm a firm believer that success in drawing is more about determination than talent, and drawing, drawing, drawing and understanding what you are drawing are key.

- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 pound white or other mushrooms, sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 36 square wonton wrappers
- 6 cups homemade chicken stock, piping hot
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the mushrooms and cook over low heat until the liquid they release has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until softened and the mushrooms are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a cutting board and let cool, then finely chop.
In a medium bowl, mix the mushrooms with the egg yolk, parsley and 3 tablespoons of Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.
Lay 4 wonton wrappers on a work surface and moisten the edges with water. Mound 1 1/2 teaspoons of the mushroom filling just below the center of each wrapper. Bring 2 opposite corners together over the filling to form a triangle. Press all around the filling to release any air pockets and seal the dumplings. Moisten the opposite tips, bring them together and press to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add salt and the dumplings and cook until just tender, about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain and transfer to shallow bowls. Pour the hot stock over the dumplings, sprinkle with Parmesan and serve.

RALEIGH, N.C. - Campbell Law ushered in 186 new students with the beginning of its first-year orientation activities on Wednesday, Aug. 13, marking the second-largest incoming class in the history of the law school. The students --- 167 traditional students and 19 studying as a part of the Campbell Flex program --- represent 73 different undergraduate institutions and 43 majors.
The number of incoming students is a sharp incline from last year, which saw 121 new students on the first day of orientation.
"We are excited to welcome this accomplished and promising class," said Campbell Law Dean J. Rich Leonard. "These students are joining our law school family, and our entire faculty and staff are committed to doing everything we possibly can to ensure their success over the next three years and thereafter."
Campbell Law's new students began orientation by taking the Professionalism Oath. In addition to customary instructional meetings with faculty and staff, new students will participate in a six-site community service project, enjoy a social gathering at Dean Leonard's home, and tour all of the local, state, and federal courts in downtown Raleigh throughout the remainder of orientation.
Since its founding in 1976, Campbell Law School has developed lawyers who possess moral conviction, social compassion and professional competence, and who view the law as a calling to serve others. The school has been recognized by the American Bar Association (ABA) as having the nation's top Professionalism Program and by the American Academy of Trial Lawyers for having the nation's best Trial Advocacy Program. Campbell Law boasts more than 3,650 alumni, including more than 2,500 who reside and work in North Carolina. In September 2009, Campbell Law relocated to a state-of-the-art building in downtown Raleigh. For more information, visit http://law.campbell.edu.

Dominion, the popular strategy card game now comes to you in this massive combination pack jammed full of the best boxed sets, additional cards and extras!
You are a monarch, like your parents before you, a ruler of a small pleasant kingdom of rivers and evergreens. Unlike your parents, however, you have hopes and dreams! You want a bigger and more pleasant kingdom, with more rivers and a wider variety of trees. You want a Dominion! In all directions lie fiefs, freeholds, and feodums. All are small bits of land, controlled by petty lords and verging on anarchy. You will bring civilization to these people, uniting them under your banner. But wait! There must be something in the air; several other monarchs have had the exact same idea. You must race to get as much of the unclaimed land as possible, fending them off along the way. To do this you will hire minions, construct buildings, spruce up your castle, and fill the coffers of your treasury. Your parents wouldn't be proud, but your grandparents would be delighted.
Dominion: Big Box 2010 contains the core Dominion card game and the expansions, Alchemy, and Prosperity, and a full color play mat. Additionally it contains the Walled Village and Governor promo card sets.

A low-key but powerful drama about a Jewish woman's odyssey from the WWII Warsaw ghetto to a life in Sweden, "Nina's Journey" is a good example of what can be achieved when a tight budget is combined with sharp filmmaking and a story that aches to be told. Foreign buyers searching for classy arthouse product should give this a look.
A low-key but powerful drama about a Jewish woman's odyssey from the WWII Warsaw ghetto to a life in Sweden, "Nina's Journey" is a good example of what can be achieved when a tight budget is combined with sharp filmmaking and a story that aches to be told. Locally, pic received positive reviews on its December release and copped best film and screenplay honors at the Golden Bugs, local film awards. Foreign buyers searching for classy arthouse product should give this a look.
Film is based on the real-life story of writer-director Lena Einhorn's mother, Nina Rajmic, who lived in Warsaw. When war broke out and the Nazis invaded, the family was moved to an apartment in the ghetto and persecuted. Though their parents died, Nina and her brother Rudolf survived the war. Nina met young student Jerzy Einhorn and moved with him to Sweden, where they both became well-known physicians. Jerzy was one of Sweden's most respected cancer doctors, though ironically both he and Nina died of cancer early this century. Before Nina died, helmer Lena interviewed her mother on camera. This gripping interview, with the old woman quietly talking in Swedish about the horrors of wartime Poland, threads through the movie as a voiceover to the action, and supplemented with comments from Lena. B&W stills and newsreel footage are also used. Cast of well-known Polish actors is headed by Agnieszka Grochowska who, as Nina, is in almost every scene. Her open, vulnerable face makes the horrors of war come alive. Despite being shot on DV and a low budget, pic manages never to look it. There are several convincingly staged mass scenes, and Einhorn takes full advantage of being able to shoot on location. Pic recently won bet film and best screenplay in Sweden's local film awards, the Golden Bugs.Nina's Journey
