When the idea of a musical crops up in our culture today, it's often treated with that mix of curiosity and respect accorded to sideshow performers. It's not something we see every day, and we're not always sure how to process it; at the same time, it's obviously quite an undertaking, and if someone wants to make a living doing it, then it's hard not to admire the gumption they're showing.
It wasn't always this way. While today the musical seems almost like a novelty to many—though shows like Glee feature many musical performances, story-telling musicals are much rarer—there was a time when they were our most common cultural currency. We got our hit songs from them (Glee and its ilk get this part backward); we learned how to dance from them. One of them got Babe Ruth sold to the Yankees.
Something happened then, and I have an odd theory as to what it was, or, to be more specific, who: Clint Eastwood.
Now, it's certainly not true that Eastwood is the man who changed everything. But there's no denying that for several decades running, the actor has been a barometer of our nation's masculine half in one way or another. Ask most people to name his most famous movie, and they'll likely come back with Dirty Harry. That film—in which Eastwood's rogue cop and his enormous weapon take on a San Francisco serial killer—came just two years after 1969's Paint Your Wagon, a musical Western based on Lerner and Loewe's 1951 stage show. Eastwood sang in that, tunes with names like "Gold Fever," and "I Talk To The Trees." Each film made somewhere in the vicinity of $35 million at the box office—but Dirty Harry cost peanuts to make, while Paint Your Wagon never recouped its costs. What's worse, nobody was quoting it.
And so the shift was on: our old musical obsessions had refocused on action, and especially on tales of beyond-the-law redemption, of vigilantism, on those tales where the hero and the villain both wore black hats. Much of it probably had to do with the time: Watergate, the aftermath of Kent State and the civil rights struggles, and, of course, the war in Vietnam. The musical, to my mind, never quite recovered its prior standing, and since the days of Dirty Harry—when the vigilante was at least still a cop—the lone gunman has only gotten more popular, more violent, and harder to distinguish from the men he kills.
This week, Hadley's Cinemark Theaters screens films that encompass some of the best stories from both the genres. On Wednesday, July 25, it will host a special screening of Cabaret as part of its Classics series. Based on the writings of Christopher Isherwood, the game-changing musical is a look at Weimar-era Germany. It follows young Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli) as she tries to forge a career as a performer in the local cabaret, and, as a sometime lover to Michael York's expat English academic, in the face of the Nazis' rising power. Filled with songs that call to mind the oompah of Weill and Brecht, it remains a forceful blend of dirge and dread.
Also on tap is one of the most anticipated of the lone wolves: Batman. While the theater will be showing Christopher Nolan's new film The Dark Knight Rises all week, it will also host a special event on the night of July 19, when the theater screens all three of the director's Batman films one after the other. Beginning with a 6:15 p.m. showing of Batman Begins, diehard fans of the caped crusader can settle in for a night's worth of dark doings from the soulful hero, capped off with a midnight premiere of the latest film. The theater is also running a slew of specials for fans attending the marathon. Better bring your Bat-Support Pillow.

The looping line at the Jungle Cruise is almost Euclidean in its use of space. Hundreds of us shuffle across that cramped boathouse entrance — standing, shuffling, standing.
We snake upstairs and down, then back across one another, like capillaries in an old woman's leg. That we ever reach anyplace is something of a geometric miracle.
To me, D-Land never quite fulfills its promise as the Happiest Place on Earth. That designation belongs to a mountain camp site, or a saloon with the perfect jukebox, even a soccer field full of kids.
But as any parent knows, a child's joy is your joy. Hence, Disneyland at Christmas — Southern California's Bedford Falls.
We are in the fourth hour of our visit, a trip that not only reaffirms your faith in family fun but also threatens to detach a retina or two. When did family entertainment become such a herky-jerky scream fest? Then again, when wasn't it? I've been a father for a while now, with the bite marks and torn tendons to prove it.
Yep, the fourth hour. Disneyland. At this point, I've been coughed on in 14 different languages, the latest (I think) Swedish, which sounds — in the lower reaches of their blond, bronchial tubes — like jars of pickles pounding the hood of your car.
OK, let's talk about these Fastpasses.
Shouldn't life be mostly a linear experience? Fastpasses turn a day at Disneyland, once the simplest of adventures, into a sort of scavenger hunt of shortcuts. It favors those who work the system, who treat life like a board game.
You know the type. Folks like this get a fleet deal on their Volvo when you paid full freight. At the front desk, they always wrangle the upgrade.
Fastpasses, in case you haven't had the pleasure, allow you to return to a busy ride at a later time, at which point you skip ahead of the pack and avoid the long waits.
Simple enough, right?
Then there's our experience. At Space Mountain, the waits were 80 minutes at 2 p.m. We decided to snag some Fastpasses and come back. Our designated return time: 11 p.m., nine hours later.
Nonetheless, these passes have become the funny money of Disneyland, a sort of underground currency. Let me just say I don't trust any economic system in which I don't automatically triumph.
Remember, a child's joy is your joy.
We are here because the little guy got some extra time off around Thanksgiving, and we needed to get out of the house, when — while helping stuff the turkey — I made some inappropriate remark. Here's the statement I gave police:
My wife has me holding the raw bird on its nookus while she ramrods stuffing into the cavity. For Posh, cooking is warfare. Hence, she is using a Renaissance jousting tool, maybe 19 feet long. And a welding torch.
While stuffing the turkey, she notes that this particular bird has a surprisingly small stomach cavity, at which point I say: "Must've been an actress."
I don't mean anything by it — against the bird, or against actresses, they're all God's creatures. I only meant that actresses are known for not eating much.
Yet that remark seemed to generate a butterball of tension. What I like most about marriage is how it brings out the best in people.
"Mom needs some room," I tell the little guy.
So we pick up his buddy Keaton and head to Disneyland, a place dripping in happiness. On the way down, the two boys fall asleep, drooling on the leather seats in 2- and 3-foot swells (could've surfed it).
Repeat after me: Their joy is your joy.
Nonetheless, we have a spectacular time at D-Land, 10 hours of Euclidean lines and occasionally overpriced cuisine.
"I know some good restaurants here," the little guy says, and leads us to pizza of the highest rank.
The damage? By the time we're done, we've spent well over $300, including the $45 pizza dinner.
That's not admission, that's rent.
So, we live here now, residing in a corner of the
Not very conventional — no schools, no pubs, constant parades. But it's really starting to feel like home.

BALTIMORE (Reuters) - Seven gay couples in Maryland rang in the New Year with wedding bells early Tuesday, the first wave of nuptials since voters in the state backed the legalization of same-sex marriage.
The couples were "lawfully married" rather than pronounced "husband and wife" at the 12:30 a.m. (0530 GMT) ceremony on New Year's Day in Baltimore's City Hall.
Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake officiated at the wedding of the first of the couples, 68-year-old James Scales and 60-year-old William Tasker. Scales and Tasker said they had been together for 35 years.
The mayor joked that everyone had come to celebrate a relationship that began many years ago - "and I mean that, many years ago."
Soon after the November vote legalizing gay marriage, Scales, a long-time city employee, asked the mayor to marry the two.
"She wanted to make a statement to tell gay, lesbian, transgendered couples that they're welcome here," said the mayor's press secretary Ian Brennan of her decision.
Voters in Maryland, Maine and Washington state approved same-sex unions on Election Day, becoming the only states to pass such a measure by popular vote.
Nine of the 50 U.S. states and Washington, D.C., now have legalized gay marriage. Another 31 states have passed constitutional amendments banning it.
Rawlings-Blake called the November 6 vote "a remarkable achievement for Maryland" and welcomed friends and families of the couples to witness history at the early morning ceremony.
"We are excited to open City Hall to host some of the first wedding ceremonies in our great state," Rawlings-Blake said.
Public opinion has been shifting in favor of allowing same-sex marriage. A Pew Research Center survey from October found 49 percent of Americans favored allowing gay marriage, with 40 percent opposed. In May, President Barack Obama became the first U.S. president to say he believed same-sex couples should be allowed to get married.
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to review two challenges to federal and state laws that define marriage as a union between a man and a woman.
The nation's highest court said this month it will review a case against a federal law that denies married same-sex couples the federal benefits that heterosexual couples receive.
It also will look at a challenge to California's ban on gay marriage, known as Proposition 8, which voters narrowly approved in 2008.
Washington state's law legalizing same-sex unions took effect on December 9 and Maine's on December 29.

Farmers market to help out family of slain weighmaster
Donations for the family of Grady Waxenfelter, who was gunned down on the job in Boring early in February, will be collected at the Oregon City Winter Farmers Markets third-annual Seedy Saturday Seed and Plant Swap, at Eighth and Main streets, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 29.
The market raised a little more than $4,000 for slain OCPD Officer Rob Libkes wife and baby, with a $1,000 matching donation from On Point Community Credit Union, so they wanted to make an effort to help the victims of this latest act of local gun violence.
A donation fund has been set up by the Clackamas County Peace Officers Benevolent Foundation (CCOBF), and 100 percent of donations at the market will go directly to the Waxenfelter family to help cover expenses.
Our Seedy Saturday is gaining momentum with our customers, and we thought that to have the collection on the same day would be beneficial for the Waxenfelter fund, said Jackie Hammond-Williams, manager of the market.
Hammond-Williams also hopes that by holding this annual event customers will be encouraged to grow their own seeds year after year, which will help the plants adapt to the local climate, soil type and produce a good seed stock for the communities resiliency.
Customers are encouraged to bring seeds saved from plants grown last summer or left over from prior seasons and to share them with their neighbors.
Plant divisions, bulbs, rhizomes, pots, catalogs and spare garden tools can all be shared at the event. The seeds should be labeled with variety, location grown, and any other pertinent information. Small seed packets will be provided, and experts will be on hand to help with their seed-saving knowledge, including Shaina Bronstein from Vitalis Organic Seeds.
Waxenfelter worked at the Clackamas County Road Department facility on Abernethy Road in Oregon City and went to school in Oregon City, where his parents still live. He left behind his wife, Tedra, two daughters, one married last year and the other a senior in high school, and a son in his late 20s.
Donations also can be made at any Clackamas County Federal Credit Union branch or can be mailed to CCPOBF, P.O. Box 678, Clackamas, OR 97015 with donations made out to CCPOBF with Grady Waxenfelter Fund in the memo line.

An interview with the Chef/Owner of the Relish sandwich shops
Johnny Orr has been turning people on to gourmet sandwiches, salads and cheeses for well over a year at his casual, yet sophisticated, little sandwich shop in the Northeast Heights. Now, after months of careful preparation, Relish is finally (finally!) open for business at its second location in downtown Albuquerque. I took Chef/Owner Johnny out for a celebratory after-work drink at the Anodyne and made him talk to me about food. He eventually got wise that the small mechanical device on the bar was not a cell phone, but, in fact, a micro-cassette recorder. He was being interviewed.

GENEVA – Joseph Stanton put in a bid last week to buy the Mill Race Inn, with the possibility of redeveloping the site as condominiums rather than as another restaurant.
"I'm not sure what I would put there," said Stanton, a Geneva businessman and developer. "If I could rezone it for condos on the river, that would be a good way to get more downtown residential."
Stanton, who owns several properties and a business in downtown Geneva, said he does not envision the shuttered historic restaurant at 4 E. State St., Geneva, as being salvageable. Built in 1842 as a blacksmith shop, it became a restaurant in 1944. It closed in January 2011 and is owned by Plaza Bank.
The selling price of the property recently was reduced to $899,000, prompting a small flurry of renewed interest, officials said.
Edward Bluemel, vice president for Plaza Bank in Chicago that owns the Mill Race property, said a counter-offer was made to Stanton on Thursday. Stanton said he had not yet seen it and could not comment.
"I'm sure they would consider mine a low offer," Stanton said. "My bid was lower, but it was based on doing my homework."
That "homework" involved subtracting the estimated $100,000 cost of demolition from the value of the land. Stanton said developers likely were putting in bids that subtracted that expense.
"That is a gigantic difference in price, and [bank officials] are just coming to terms with that now," Stanton said. "I don't think they understood the damage to the building. I think they are a little bit in shock with where the offers are coming in at. I think after the last storm, it's no longer a building that is in disrepair. It's a building that has to be taken down."
Neither Bluemel nor Stanton would reveal what the offer was. Bluemel said it was half of what other, too-low offers the bank was receiving.
Bluemel also disagreed with Stanton's assessment that the bank had not figured in the cost of demolition in the low offers it was receiving.
"We always thought it was going to be tear-down redevelopment," Bluemel said.
Stanton said the site, 1.3 acres on the river, likely could not sustain commercial or retail because it is out of the way.
"A restaurant might work, but at what price?" Stanton said. "It's expensive to rip this down and build new and outfit it as a restaurant – that could cost $2.5 million to $3 million. I'm not sure whether that is feasible. In my heart, I would love to see a restaurant at that site. If someone was offering to buy it from the bank and would put a restaurant at that site, I would walk away."
Tom Burgess of Geneva, CEO and founder of Burgess Commercial Real Estate in Aurora, said he was in talks with the bank on the Mill Race property, but would not discuss price or a development for the site.
Burgess agreed that the restaurant is not viable.
"I think it's a terrible shame that the old grand dame of Geneva restaurants has been allowed to fall into such disrepair," Burgess said. "I don't think what is there can be turned into anything. … It's so sad. I remember that place. My grandparents celebrated events there, my mom and dad, I did. It was one of those places the community went to celebrate its wonderful events. It's not there anymore and we need to move on."
Burgess said the location could be for a new restaurant.
"The Mill Race was there for decades – for generations – so certainly the location could be utilized as a restaurant," Burgess said. "Because the building was not taken care of, it's history."

An active radiation oncology department provides a substantial case load of patients treated for breast cancer with lumpectomy and radiation. With the plastic surgery referral center, the breast imager is exposed to a significant population of women with breast implants and breast reconstruction. Three oncologic surgeons at our medical center are active in breast cancer surgery.
Our relations with the Departments of Radiation Oncology, Oncologic Surgery, Hematology-Oncology, Plastic Surgery and Pathology are excellent.

Drivers should beware when traveling some Grant County roads as the spring's rainy weather has caused some problems to the road surface.
In southern Grant County, a section each of Delaney and Keefer Roads are down to one lane.
Keefer Road (Ky. 2936) will be closed through June 10 and again on June 13 through June 15 to through traffic to allow the state highway department to repair the slide. The work and closure will take place between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m..
In his first year, Grant County Jailer said he has "a good budget" as he tries to reduce costs and increase revenues.
"Everybody wants to hammer the jail and say 'The jail costs money,'" Peeples said during a recent fiscal court caucus meeting. "Well, we're trying to fix that and be creative."
Jeff Courtney, a Class D inmate, who was working outside the grant County Detention Center on Barnes Road in Williamstown, climbed into a waiting car and drove off June 5.
Grant County Jailer Terry Peeples said that Courtney was being supervised while he was working in a garden outside the jail.
"The deputy saw him get in a car and take off," Peeples said.
Peeples said the jail staff notified the Kentucky State Police, per the jail's protocol and began an investigation.
The Country Grill in Dry Ridge will be closed for at least two weeks, maybe longer, after an electrical fire broke out on Monday, June 6.
"I'm hoping we're only closed for two weeks," said Mike Hare, owner. "My goal is to be up and running before the NASCAR race at Kentucky Speedway."
The race is set for the first weekend in July.
Hare said the employees smelled smoke and then noticed a haze in the dining room just after lunch.
A state trooper crashed his cruiser on May 19 while transporting a prisoner to jail.
The wreck occurred at 1:22 a.m. on Ky. 22 when the cruiser driven by Trooper Ron Gilbert slid off the road in a curve and struck a tree.
Gilbert and the prisoner, Justin Malott, 19, were taken to St. Elizabeth Hosptial Grant County were they were treated and released.
Malott, of Williamstown, was then lodged in the Grant County Detention Center. He had been arrested on a felony warrant. State police are investigating the crash.
The Kentucky State Police in Dry Ridge want to inform citizens of criminal activity that is occurring in the Morehead and Dry Ridge Post areas.
Two white males are going to residences of elderly people and approaching the occupants about giving them an estimate for a new heating and air conditioning unit. Once inside the residence, one of the male subjects will distract the victim while the other male subject goes around measuring the residence. While pretending to take the measurements, that male subject is taking jewelry and any other valuable items.
A 27-year-old Williamstown man has been arrested for allegedly robbing three banks in less than two weeks.
Matthew Grant was arrested by the Cincinnati Police Department on May 9 after he is believed to have robbed Heritage Bank in Crescent Springs, Ky., earlier in the day.
The Hamilton County (Ohio) Sheriff's Office also has charged Grant with aggravated robbery of the Guardian Savings Bank on April 26.
Seven Northern Kentucky men were indicted by a federal grand jury May 12 for conspiring to distribute more than 50 grams of methamphetamine in Grant County.
The U.S. Attorney's Office, the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Kentucky State Police jointly announced the charges May 16.
Four of the seven men indicted also lived in Grant County.

Karrueche Tran Lifts Her Spirits At KCAs After Chris Brown Breakup
Karrueche Tran looked happy as ever at the Kids' Choice Awards on March 29 in Los Angeles, Calif. Even though she's just recently split from Chris Brown, Karrueche had a fun night out with her pal, Christina Milian. Karrueche is definitely not sitting at home dwelling about her break up.
Break up? What break up? Karrueche Tran didn't appear to be upset over Chris Brown at the Kids' Choice Awards on March 29.
Karrueche Tran Gets Cheered Up At The KCAs
What's the best way to lift your spirits after a break up? Hang out with your friends, of course!
Karrueche, 25, did just that when she joined her girl Christina Milian at the 2014 KCAs. Both girls brought along special dates, too.
While Karrueche brought her niece, Samira, to the big awards show, Christina brought along her adorable daughter Violet!
In a series of cute pics taken inside the KCAs photo booth, Karrueche gave a big smile and even made a few funny faces.
It's nice to see that she's not sitting at home dwelling over her break up with Chris, because she definitely deserves to have some fun right now
Karrueche Doesn't Want To Visit Chris
If you didn't already know, Chris is currently serving his one month sentence in jail for violating his probation, allegedly because of his inappropriate relationship with female staffers at the rehab he was staying in.
Chris and Karrueche were still together at the time of his arrest, but we can only imagine that she is not very happy about Chris delivering so much of his attention to those so-called female staffers.
Recently, HollywoodLife.com learned that Karrueche does not even plan to visit Chris while he's serving time.
"Fact of the matter is, Karrueche's not even interested in talking about the past with him because it will upset both her and him and she realizes she cannot change the past," a source close to the couple revealed to us.
Tell us, HollywoodLifers — Do you think Karrueche is trying to move on from Chris? Let us know your thoughts below!

The really unfortunate part of these scenarios is that effective, non-drug
treatment for both of these conditions is readily available to parents
through holistic pediatric methods. Asthma in children can be significantly
improved and even cured through a combination of one or more holistic
treatments that include nutritional support, Chinese herbs, acupuncture,
chiropractic, and homeopathy. Holistic pediatric training is available for
professionals at www.healthychild.com and www.icpa4kids.org, including a
specific course on asthma treatment (Healthy Child Holistic Natural
Parenting Alternative Medicine). A directory of holistic pediatric
practitioners in your area can be found at www.hpakids.org. There is no
reason that children need to take steroids on an ongoing basis, with the
risk of their attendant side effects (growth delays and immune
suppression), if they receive holistic pediatric care.
Similarly, the conventional drugs used for the treatment of ADD and other
behavior problems represent only short-term symptom relief for these
problems at best. These drugs may also cause significant side effects,
including sleep problems, loss of appetite, weight loss, and tics. A much
safer and more permanent solution exists in the methods of holistic and
functional medicine, including homeopathy, Chinese herbs, nutritional
supplements, and evaluation of neurotransmitter function. Biofeedback
systems may also help these children, depending on their age.
I encourage all parents to investigate these alternatives before putting
children on these drugs, and to consider transitioning children who take
conventional medications to more effective and curative methods of
treatment. If you know family members or other parents whose children are
dependent on these medicines, you may also want to offer them these

Press release 171/2017
5 October 2017
The official Finnish name of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs will change to 'ulkoministeriö'. Goverment proposes that the act on the change of official name will enter into force on 1 January 2018. The Ministry will keep the Swedish (utrikesministeriet) and English (Ministry for Foreign Affairs) equivalents of its name unchanged.
The shorter name 'ulkoministeriö' has been used in the Ministry's communications and in the media for years. The new name recognises the change in usage. One of the factors behind this change is harmonisation of Finnish ministries' names. The Ministry of the Interior adopted its current name in 2013.
The Finnish name will show in the Ministry's forms and other printed matter. The Ministry's new visual image and logo will be published in early 2018.
The decree on the establishment of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Senate was issued in June 1918. The actual date also marks the official day when the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland was established. The Foreign Affairs Department has been called the Ministry for Foreign Affairs since November 1918, when a decree was issued on the Senate becoming the Government of Finland.
Inquiries: Johanna Kotkajärvi, Deputy Director General, tel. + 358 295 351 351 and Eeva Winter, Legal Officer, tel. +358 295 350 739.
The Foreign Ministry's email addresses are in the format firstname.lastname@example.com.

Opening Statement: Beyond the Moral Archetype |
Kim J. Askew
One of the most revered lawyers in popular culture and within the profession is Atticus Finch, the fictional lawyer made famous by Harper Lee in her legendary novel, To Kill a Mockingbird. Actor Gregory Peck was the movie version of Atticus Finch, and we so identified with him that the American Film Institute declared Atticus the "greatest hero in 100 years of film history." Atticus is the antidote to lawyer jokes, bad publicity about lawyers, and assertions that the law is now just a business and no longer a profession.…

Rescue dogs make a great pet any time of year, but during each October shelters and animal lovers observe Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, a month-long endeavor to celebrate shelter dogs and promote adoption. What better time than now to march down to your local shelter and take home a canine in need? A new dog can greatly improve your life by:
But if you can't take in an animal, don't worry — there are ways you can still help! Consider fostering animals looking for homes, volunteering at your local shelter, or making a donation to a shelter or animal care organization.
In whatever way you can, pledge to do your part to help shelter dogs all year long.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- As a hot Saturday night segued into a warm Sunday morning, West Sixth Street pulsated like a PlayhouseSquare musical rising to its climax.
Music fired out of nightclub doorways and rained down upon a cast of thousands. Young people coursed up both sides of the block and clustered in throngs of 100 or more in front of popular clubs.
Guys called to laughing girls. People crisscrossed the street shouting into cell phones. Police kept the scene moving and swirling, playing their role in the deception.
The happy street was, by 2 a.m., a tense and forbidding place.
A bachelorette party labored to support the bride-to-be, who fell drunkenly off her high-heeled shoes. Security guards moved up the sidewalks, dislodging underage young men who view the street as a hangout. Police rushed to break up fights before they escalated.
The popularity, rising diversity and late-night madness of West Sixth Street reminds many of another place and time. Stakeholders in the Warehouse District whisper "Flats East Bank" and shiver. They worry the city's premier entertainment district could, like its riverfront predecessor, crash under the weight of excess and controversy.
"What people in the Warehouse District are saying is, 'We don't want another Flats,' " said Tony George, a nightclub developer who helped to build the Flats and whose son is a building and restaurant owner on West Sixth. "What they mean is, they don't want to end up like the Flats. People are scared. I'm scared."
The Warehouse District, Cleveland's party central for nearly a decade, is in the thick of a stressful summer. For the past five weeks, an unprecedented deployment of police has sought to keep the merrymaking peaceful on West Sixth, which observers say is attracting a larger, younger and rowdier crowd.
Police warn they are nearly overwhelmed. Club owners and business-group leaders say new rules and strategies are needed. Cleveland's albatross, the race issue, complicates efforts to address the new realities.
A different kind of club draws a different kind of crowd. Lust, a modest nightclub opened barely a year, is already notorious.
Joseph Carey, 61, the white owner of a commercial roofing business on East 55th Street, said his West Sixth Street restaurant, Jac's, lost money for three years before he turned the space into the dance club Lust. He did not envision a hip-hop scene. Promoters suggested it, he said. The largely black clientele that filled the club also filled his cash registers.
"This neighborhood is no longer a restaurant venue," Carey said. "It's a nightclub venue. I changed to a nightclub and that turned things around."
Carey also introduced the Warehouse District's first metal detectors at the door, hired DJs who play angry rap music, and turned up the volume.
Complaints started from the loft apartments above, in the Grand Arcade condominiums, and spread up the block.
Lust, which enforces a dress code, draws a diverse and attractive crowd inside. It's the crowd outside, the people too young or too underdressed to get in, who alarm the neighbors.
The new hip-hop scene draws young black men who hang out on the street into the wee hours. They stand in groups in front of XO Prime Steaks and the Blue Point Grille and present a dilemma.
"Most of these people are at least 18," said 3rd District Police Commander Calvin Williams, now a fixture on West Sixth on Saturday nights. "They can't go into the clubs and drink. So they hang out here."
Observers of the block said the "underagers" do what idle young men tend to do. They try to talk to women. They try to look tough. To get into fights and attract the police and scare off the diners and date-night couples.
"You have more and more coming every week," said Eddie Robinson, a veteran of six years of security details in the district. Robinson, a large black man with a soft voice, directs security at Barley House, one of the most popular clubs on the block.
"They hang out on the street, smoking weed, and they're harassing people who do go into the clubs. And it's causing a problem," he said.
Carey's landlords, who say they were surprised to find a hip-hop club in their building, had nearly succeeded in evicting him before Carey called George Forbes, president of the Cleveland NAACP.
Forbes said he had been concerned about the Warehouse District and what he suspected was an effort by police and club owners, perhaps orchestrated from City Hall, to keep down the number of black patrons.
He demanded a meeting with Mayor Frank Jackson and alerted the news media to a new pattern of racism in the city. Meanwhile, Carey filed a civil rights lawsuit in federal court.
Carey's landlords blinked. At a hearing Friday mediated by a federal judge, representatives of West Sixth Associates agreed to drop eviction efforts, to overlook that Carey's lease expires in August and to extend it for another year.
Carey, in exchange, agreed to send his security staff outside to clear the sidewalk: to keep the hangout crowd moving.
Lust lives on, a mini-drama in a larger narrative.
At 2 a.m. last Sunday, 18 police cruisers formed a crooked line up the center of West Sixth, a wall of security meant to send a message. Commander Williams stood in the street in a golf shirt, a gun holstered to his hip, a radio in his hand.
Maintaining control with dress codes
Dress codes have come a long way from No Shirts, No Shoes, No Service, especially in the Warehouse District, where clubs scramble to keep abreast of fashion -- and to stay ahead of trouble.
The admonition "No wifebeaters" posted at the entrance to Barley House is not aimed at abusive spouses. It means no sleeveless T-shirts, popular with a new generation.
The dance club Lust forbids baggy jeans and "excessively large chains" and makes a point to stress "NO FLAT BILL HATS" -- as in baseball caps.
You can keep your cap on at Barley House, but the dress code insists the cap bill be pointed straight forward or straight back. A cap skewed to the side is a gang insignia, or once was, or maybe still is.
"You don't always know," said security manager Eddie Robinson. "You're just looking to stop trouble before it starts."
--Robert L. Smith
He directed a detail of 20 patrol officers augmented by men and women pulled from specialized units, like traffic, narcotics and the SWAT team.
The block stirred with 8,000 young people, Williams guessed. "Well more than our officers could handle if something really happened," he said. "Our goal is to keep anything major from happening."
Police moved up and down the streets in pairs, reminding people to keep moving. Club security guards joined the effort, most assertively outside of Lust.
"Yo, you going in?" a security guard asked a group of young black men.
"Just waiting for a friend," a teen responded.
"Then you gotta move," the security guard said. "No disrespect. They're trying to shut us down."
Up the block, a man with a foreign accent approached a police officer and the man pulled down his lower lip to show bloody gums. He said he had just been punched out in a club line.
By who? the officer asked.
The man looked into a confusion of people, shrugged and walked on.
At nearby St. Clair Avenue, a passenger in a passing SUV flashed a gun at pedestrians edging into the street.
Sudden fights, often between women, drew three and four officers. Anyone who kept fighting was pushed, handcuffed, into the back of a patrol car.
As 2:30 a.m. approached, police massed at the north end of West Sixth for the closing drama. The sweep.
As people poured from the closing clubs, some laughing, some staggering, some sober and poised, a voice over a loudspeaker announced, "All right, clear the sidewalks!"
A line of police began pushing a river of people slowly south toward St. Clair and the parking lots beyond.
After 30, maybe 40 minutes, the last few hundred revelers reached the corners of St. Clair. West Sixth was nearly clear. Williams gave the final shove.
"Hey, hey, party's over. Let's go!" he shouted into the night. "Go somewhere else."

The latest network to enlist big-screen talent and muscle its way into the original scripted-series business, Hallmark Channel premieres on Saturday its adaptation of Debbie Macomber's bestselling Cedar Cove novels. It's called "Debbie Macomber's Cedar Cove," presumably to avoid any confusion among the author's built-in fan base.
There is, for example, absolutely no potential crossover with fans of the similarly named "Hemlock Grove," though it is set in the kind of small rocky Northern coastal American town other authors do tend to fill up with vampires (Stephen King to the East, Stephenie Meyer to the West). But "Cedar Cove" is content to chronicle smaller, more domestically quotidian doings, most of which revolve in some way around Judge Olivia Lockhart, played by the always lovely Andie MacDowell.
Firm but fair, independent but still a girl at heart, Olivia spends the first half of the pilot contemplating a federal judgeship that tempts her to leave Cedar Grove and its close-knit citizenry. In the end, concerns about her daughter (Sarah Smyth) and her recently divorced best friend (Teryl Rothery) — not to mention the appearance of Jack (Dylan Neal), the handsome new editor of the local paper — convince her to stay.
PHOTOS: Celebrities by The Times
Because Cedar Cove is just that kind of place.
The second half of the two-hour pilot, and subsequent episodes, deal with the kind of small town uproar once indicated by the appearance of a pool table in your community. A local developer wants to tear down the lighthouse; an apparently indigent man collapses, leaving a literal key to his past; young-adult children try the patience of their loving parents and vise versa, and all the while a local radio show host offers counsel and advice that act as an inspirational voice-over.
It's pointless to deny that "Cedar Cove" has a very high "paint-drying" factor, but it's very pretty paint, professionally applied. Rothery is particularly good and MacDowell is working very much within her comfort zone here, radiant and resonant.
EMMYS 2013: Full coverage | Top nominees | Complete list | Recap
And amid all the noise and haste of modern television, there is something to be said for going placidly. While IFC and Sundance, History and soon even Discovery duke it out with gritty "prestige" hopefuls, Hallmark remains true to its brand, offering a frank and unapologetic alternative. All is not tea and scones in Cedar Grove (though both are readily available); biggish issues will be dealt with, but with hope rather than hysteria.
Despite a certain built-in B & B preciousness, "Cedar Cove" evokes certain splendid shows of another time and place, including the late-great "Family" and the longtime Irish hit "Ballykissangel." And while any new antihero drama has to elbow its way through a pretty big crowd to get to the bar, a show examining midlife romance and the gentle undercurrents of small town life, however idealized, pretty much has the room to itself.

Gentlemen ready to play it again
Cult TV show The League Of Gentlemen could be set for a comeback.
Next year will mark the 20th anniversary of the comedy troupe, whose surreal and acclaimed off-the-wall show began on stage before moving to radio and then TV.
Set in the fictional Northern village of Royston Vasey, the dark series was created by comedy quartet Mark Gatiss, Steve Pemberton, Reece Shearsmith and Jeremy Dyson.
The League Of Gentlemen are poised to reunite
Asked whether a reunion was on the cards, Shearsmith told Radio Times magazine: "I think we will do something again.
"We've started to talk about a thing. It might not be Royston Vasey, but just collaborating again would be great."
The BBC series ended in 2002 and a movie version hit the big-screen in 2005.
There have previously been rumours that the show could return.
Shearsmith is starring in ITV drama Chasing Shadows.

Because the first part of my conversation with Eric Rosenfield about "science fiction" and "criticism"* didn't cause enough annoyance, controversy, or discussion, part two is now available for your viewing pleasure. And there will be more to come -- I think we totalled about 15,000 words by the end, because neither of us had time to write more succinctly.
It's been strange to watch it being read, first because, as I said before, we didn't decide to make it public until near the end, and also because it's now coming out in installments. I've refrained from commenting anywhere about people's objections or corrections or etc. to it, because later installments address some of the questions and objections.
In this second part, one of the most important sentences from the whole conversation appears: "Terminology always defeats me." I wouldn't mind that for an epitaph.
*quotes necessary now because one of the assumptions not entirely obvious from the conversation is that I, at least, knew I was working from idiosyncratic definitions of all those words. I used "science fiction" to mean all sorts of stuff that gets called science fiction, fantasy, horror, slipstream, etc., and I used a definition of "criticism" that was extremely narrow -- I probably should at least have used the term "theory" or "academic theory" or "academic literary theory within a structuralist/post-structuralist context as interpreted within English-speaking academic institutions over the last 30 or so years, at least as I am limitedly familiar with it all" or somesuch, but, you know, when you're writing quickly you don't want to keep typing long phrases... Some of the discussion later, though, probably wouldn't have been as fruitful if I had been explicit in my assumptions. Indeed, the fruitfulness (or prolixity) of the discussion was a result, I think, of our misreadings of each other, various texts, and, I expect, reality (a word which, as Nabokov said, means nothing without quotes).

"At Kevin's workshop, I was finally able to get a grasp on understanding how my camera operates, way beyond just keeping it in AUTO mode, where I had kept it for so long. I like that he taught "real-world" techniques that I was able to use as soon as I left that day. He has inspired me and equipped me to be a better photographer. I would definitely recommend going to both of Kevin Ashley Photography's Firestarter Workshops!!"

DS-5 CE provides an integrated solution including an Eclipse IDE, GNU cross-compiler, DS-5 Debugger, Streamline™ performance analyzer, online help and software examples. This level of integration enables developers to get up and running with their projects in virtually no time. In addition, DS-5 CE runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OS hosts, making it ideal for microcontroller users moving into the world of Linux.
The graphical DS-5 Debugger only needs an Ethernet connection to the target to enable power debug features typically available only in commercial debuggers. In addition, it integrates Linux-specific functionality, such as a target file system explorer and an automated flow for downloading applications to the target, launching them and connecting the debugger. The ARM Streamline performance analyzer provides Linux developers with an unprecedented level of visibility into how their application interacts with the rest of the Linux stack and the underlying hardware. Streamline makes it easy to locate code hotspots, system bottlenecks, inefficient threading, ineffective use of the cache memories and GPUs, and many other software issues.
Why: The use of Linux is growing rapidly in the embedded space, fueled by the availability of low-cost, low-power, high-performance ARM processor-based MPUs with working Linux ports and communication stacks.
Unfortunately, getting started with Embedded Linux can be a daunting experience, with a number of fragmented open-source development tools with command line interfaces and lack of interoperability. Just getting a Linux cross-development environment up and running may take hours for a Linux expert, or days for an embedded developer from a microcontroller background.
ARM is committed to making software development on ARM efficient and effective, as demonstrated with the original launch of DS-5 CE, which made ARM's flagship DS-5 tool suite free to use for Android native application development. The benefits of DS-5 CE now become available also for Linux application development.
When: DS-5 CE is available now. New users can benefit from all the components in DS-5 CE by doing a standard DS-5 installation and registering an activation code from http://ds.arm.com/ds-5-community-edition/getting-started/ Developers with an existing Eclipse IDE and Linux compiler can install the DS-5 Debugger and Streamline components of DS-5 CE as Eclipse plug-ins from http://ds.arm.com/ds-5-community-edition/getting-started-update-site/. More information on DS-5 CE is available on http://ds.arm.com/ds-5-community-edition/.
Where: ARM will be demonstrating DS-5 CE at Design West, booth #1708, 23-25th April, at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, San Jose, California.
Who: ARM designs the technology that is at the heart of advanced digital products, from wireless, networking and consumer entertainment solutions to imaging, automotive, security and storage devices. ARM's comprehensive product offering includes 32-bit RISC microprocessors, graphics processors, video engines, enabling software, cell libraries, embedded memories, high-speed connectivity products, peripherals and development tools. Combined with comprehensive design services, training, support and maintenance, and the company's broad Partner community, they provide a total system solution that offers a fast, reliable path to market for leading electronics companies.

There are so many versions of pasta that I have yet to discover. A few years ago, I made a Sardinian Pasta with Semolina Gnocchi. That was fun to do, and also delicious! In this month's issue of Cook's Illustrated, a recipe for Pasta alla Norcina was one of the many recipes that intrigued me.
Norcia, in the mountains of southeastern Umbria, is famous for it's black truffles and pork, particularly sausages and salami. This recipe, created to highlight Umbria's delicious sausages can be found all across the region. Umbrian sausage is the traditional ingredient for this cream sauce, but it's not easy to find. I always find it interesting to read how Cook's Illustrated finds a workaround when a particular ingredient isn't readily available in our local supermarket.
Their solution was by starting with store-bought ground pork and making a strong brine with salt to speed its effect. To ensure the juiciest (and most flavorful) possible sausage, they added baking soda and seared the sausage in the form of a patty (seasoned with garlic and rosemary) on both sides before chopping it into small pieces and gently finishing it in the sauce of cream, wine, and mushrooms.
TO REHEAT: If you have leftovers, I splashed in a little chicken broth and reheated in the microwave. I then dumped all the reheated pasta into a skillet, and splashed some fresh heavy cream and reduced it for a couple of minutes. Perfect!
If you still can't view the recipe card, all of my recipes are stored on Key Ingredient, by clicking here. If you still can't figure out how to view the printable recipe card, please email me at email@example.com and I am happy to help.

Fifty Ways to Leave Your Client
Ann Massie Nelson is director of communications for Wisconsin Lawyers Mutual Insurance Co., Madison, Wisconsin. She writes a regular risk management column for Wisconsin Lawyer magazine, portions of which were adapted for this article with the permission of the State Bar of Wisconsin.
Withdrawing from representation of a client is never as simple as just slipping out the back (apologies to Paul Simon), even though you may be tempted to do so when a client asks you to violate your professional or personal code of ethics.
Ethics rules vary by state. However, the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct, versions of which have been adopted by 41 jurisdictions, offer some guidance to the lawyer trapped between duty to client on one hand and oath to uphold the law on the other.
Withdrawal is mandatory when a client demands that you engage in illegal conduct or violate the Rules of Professional Conduct, according to Model Rule 1.16. (Simply suggesting you act illegally does not oblige you to withdraw, since the client may be floating a trial balloon to gauge your response.)
Withdrawal is permissive under certain circumstances, including (but not limited to) occasions when a client:
- Persists in a course of action involving your services that you believe is criminal or fraudulent.
- Has used your services to perpetrate a crime or fraud.
- Insists on pursuing an objective that you consider repugnant or imprudent.
In short, "...withdrawal is mandatory when the lawyer's own conduct will violate the Rules or law. If it is the client's conduct that will violate the law, withdrawal is permissive," according to the ABA Annotated Model Rules of Professional Conduct (1996). (See also Rule 1.2 (d), Scope of Representation.)
Risking your law license or forever tainting your professional reputation by becoming an accessory to a client's criminal or fraudulent acts hardly seems worth the gamble. But in the heat of battle, lawyers often don't realize when they've taken the first step down a slippery slope where each client request takes them a little closer to the brink.
Hired Gun or Champion of Justice?
Permissive withdrawal from representation raises the kind of questions often debated in campus coffee houses and law student watering holes:
- Would you withdraw from representing a client who you believed was concealing retirement funds in a divorce proceeding?
- What would you do if you learned a long-term client underreported income on the tax return you helped prepare?
- Would you represent a corporation that knowingly pollutes the environment or makes a potentially harmful—yet legal—product?
- Are lawyers "combat mercenaries" available for any cause clients are ready to finance? Or are they "ministers of justice," as former U.S. District Court Judge Marvin E. Frankel once proposed?
If you are an associate working on assigned cases or a sole practitioner struggling to make payroll, you may feel more like a disciple of the billable hour than a minister of justice. Eager to maintain revenues and please clients, lawyers sometimes ignore their gut when it tells them, "Don't do it. This isn't worth risking my career."
"Most lawyers who have continued with problem clients have regretted it," says Kirk R. Hall, chief executive officer of the Oregon State Bar Professional Liability Fund and a former member of the ABA Standing Committee on Lawyers' Professional Liability. "When something seems odd or wrong, it's time to stop. Like most things in life, the situation seldom gets better and typically it gets worse."
First, Do No Harm
When withdrawing from a case, the Model Rule states that "a lawyer shall take steps to the extent reasonably practicable to protect a client's interests."
"My experience has been that the more you go out of your way to make sure people land on their feet, the less likely they are to blame you," says K. William Gibson, a Portland, Oregon, lawyer and author of How to Build and Manage a Personal Injury Practice, (American Bar Association, 1997; to order, call 800/285-2221. Refer to PC 5110386).
The hazards of withdrawing from representation come in determining when and how to terminate the attorney-client relationship. By protecting the client's interests, you reduce your risk of a malpractice or grievance claim.
Here are some suggestions for how to protect your client's—and your own—interests.
Read the ethics rules for the states where you represent clients and the local rules of court. "Rules vary significantly from one state to another, even from one court to the next," advises Mary L. Cibella, a Cleveland, Ohio, lawyer who concentrates in the area of professional responsibility.
In addition, look at how the agency that issues ethics opinions has handled particular situations. Has a court in that jurisdiction interpreted the rules? Be aware that the court and agency interpretations may differ, Cibella adds.
Give the client reasonable notice. The length of time considered "reasonable" will depend upon the status and complexity of the case. If the matter is in litigation, you will need the court's permission to withdraw. Courts have wide discretion in granting or denying a motion to withdraw, taking into account not only the client's interests but also those of the opposing parties and the judicial process.
"Courts are not going to entertain a withdrawal on the eve of a trial or hearing," notes Cibella.
Even if you're not litigating the case, don't sleep on it until the client has few options left.
"The client you don't fire is the one who's most likely to lead to malpractice," says Katja Kunzke, director of claims at Wisconsin Lawyers Mutual Insurance Co. "This file will sit on the side of your desk until you miss a deadline or make a mistake because you didn't want to deal with it. You want to get out when the most options are still available to the client."
Allow time for employment of other counsel. You can help protect the client's interests (and get yourself off the hook) by encouraging the client to retain a new lawyer as soon as possible. Refer the client to your state or local bar's lawyer-referral service rather than recommending specific lawyers. Nominating your replacement could be viewed as suspect by the client and, in the case of a problem client, won't win you any favors with your colleagues.
Again, the more time you allow for finding another lawyer, the better. "I received a fax from a client who demanded that I advance him living expenses while waiting for trial. My first instinct was to bail immediately. Instead, I sent the client a letter telling him he had 30 days to find another attorney," recalls Gibson.
Maintain client confidentiality. As noted in the comment regarding Rule 1.6 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct, after withdrawal the lawyer must not disclose client confidences, except when "the lawyer reasonably believes (it is) necessary to prevent the client from committing a criminal act that the lawyer believes is likely to result in imminent death or substantial bodily harm." (Lawyers also may reveal confidential client information if necessary to defend themselves in certain situations involving the client.)
Blowing the whistle on client fraud is regu-lated by the rules in each jurisdiction. "Some-times you're required to reveal. Sometimes you're required to keep your mouth shut," notes Cibella.
How much information you divulge to the court or to replacement counsel must be handled with utmost diplomacy to avoid prejudicing the client. The consensus of those interviewed for this article is that the less said, the better. (See Model Rule 1.6, Confidentiality of Information, and comments for more guidance.)
Surrender client's papers and property. Hold-ing a client's file hostage for unpaid legal fees is unwise.
"Return the client's paper and property and worry about collecting fees later," Cibella emphasizes. "Even if the client owes a large sum of money, it's cheaper in the long term to work out some kind of payment plan than to defend a malpractice claim or a claim filed with a disciplinary agency because you failed to give the documents back."
Retain a copy of the entire file, if practical, recommends Kunzke. At minimum, keep copies of your work product, all correspondence, and notes.
In your disengagement letter (see "A Disengagement Letter Protects You When You PART Ways"), tell the client when and where the file is available for pick up or offer to send the file to the client's new lawyer. Get a signed and dated receipt so that you have a record of the file's transfer.
Refund unearned legal fees. Send a detailed summary of the fees incurred during your representation and return any unused retainer.
Why Don't You Just Sleep on It Tonight?
Even though you study the rules and follow the procedures for withdrawing from representation, you cannot immunize yourself from a malpractice claim or disciplinary complaint.
Before you fire a client:
- Wait 24 hours to mail your disengagement letter. A word processor in the hands of a lawyer is like a loaded gun, says one lawyer.
- Talk it over. "You're not alone in this. Plus, getting the opinions of others shows you made an effort to do the right thing," says Cibella. Call your state bar's ethics hotline or the ABA's ETHICSearch at 312/988-5323.
- Consult your professional liability insurance provider. "Tell them the situation and ask for their advice. Sometimes they have recommendations that I haven't thought about, plus it alerts them to a potential problem," says Gibson.
- Document your actions. If later a malpractice claim or grievance is filed, contemporaneous documentation of your thoughts and actions will be your best defense, advises Cibella.
