Calls against hate as victims of anti-Semitic gunman mourned
LEAWOOD, Kan. - Thousands of mourners filled a church in Kansas on Friday to remember a teenager and his grandfather who were shot dead outside a Jewish community center last week in a suspected anti-Semitic hate crime.
Adam Hamilton, the senior pastor of the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection, called on the more than 3,000 mourners to "stand in the gap" against evil and hatred as they paid tribute to Reat Underwood, 14, and his grandfather, William Corporon, 69.
The two, who were not Jewish, were gunned down on their way into the Jewish Community Center in Overland Park where Underwood planned to audition for a singing competition.
A third victim, 53-year-old Terri LaManno, who was a practicing Catholic, was shot dead a few minutes later outside a nearby Jewish retirement facility. The funeral for LaManno was held on Thursday.
Overland Park, in the state of Kansas, is a suburb of Kansas City, Missouri. The United Methodist Church of the Resurrection is located in Leawood, a neighboring suburb of Overland Park.
Boy Scouts dressed in uniform seated people at the funeral as music played in the background, including the song "You're Gonna Miss Me When I am Gone." The song is one that Reat, who was working to achieve the highest rank of Eagle Scout, had planned to sing at his audition at the community center, according to his family.
Pictures of Reat and his grandfather flashed across the video screens on either side of the sanctuary. Children carried carnations, and dozens of bouquets of flowers spilled over the altar.
"We want to celebrate their lives in a big way for Reat and Bill were amazing people," Karen Lampe, executive pastor at the church, said at the start of the service.
Lisa Morrison, who was attending the funeral with her 11-year-old son, a friend of Reat's family, said they wanted to let family members know they are not alone in their grief.
"I believe it is a tragedy for our nation that we still have individuals in our society who would hate and kill someone just because of their religion," said Morrison, who lives in Overland Park.
While all of the victims were Christian, authorities have said the suspect in the shootings outside Jewish facilities was an avowed white supremacist who was targeting Jews.
The killings, which took place the day before the start of the Jewish celebration of Passover and a week before the Christian Easter holiday, have resonated across the United States.
Leaders from a range of religious organizations have called for unity to combat ongoing hatred and violence. The Kansas City Interfaith Council has called for a "global prayer for community peace" to honor the victims and their families on Sunday.
At the service on Friday, Corporon was remembered as a physician who practiced family medicine in Oklahoma before moving to the Kansas City area to be closer to his grandchildren.
Reat, who called his grandfather "Popeye," was described as a gifted singer and performer who participated in debate, choir and theater at the local high school where he was a freshman.
There was little talk of the suspect in the killings. Frazier Glenn Cross, 73, also known as avowed white supremacist Glenn Miller, is being held on $10 million bond on a charge of capital murder and premeditated first-degree murder for the killings.
Federal prosecutors have said they also plan to file federal hate crime charges against Cross, known by law enforcement as a senior member of the white supremacy movement and someone who had made repeated threats against Jewish people.

Fish Teriyaki with Sweet-and-Sour Cucumbers
This is a fairly classic take on teriyaki — broiled or grilled slices of marinated meat or fish. The small amount of sugar in the soy-based sauce caramelizes in the heat, creating a deliciously sticky glaze.
Total Time:
- ½ small seedless cucumber
- 1 small daikon radish
- 1 clove garlic
- ½ c. unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
- kosher salt
- ¼ c. light brown sugar
- ¼ c. low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
- 1½ tsp. cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon of water
- 4 skinless cod fillets
- Steamed rice
- Put the cucumber, daikon, and garlic in a heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the rice vinegar with the granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt and heat just until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Pour the brine over the vegetables and gently squeeze the vegetables to soften them. Refrigerate until chilled, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the broiler and position a rack 6 inches from the heat. In the same saucepan, combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, and the dissolved cornstarch with the remaining 3 tablespoons of rice vinegar and bring to a boil, whisking until the glaze is thickened, about 2 minutes.
- Dip the cod in the teriyaki glaze and transfer to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Broil the cod for 10 to 11 minutes, without turning, basting once or twice, until the fish is glazed and cooked through.
- Transfer the cod to plates. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sweet-and-sour cucumber salad to the plates. Drizzle any remaining teriyaki glaze over the fish and serve with rice.

Press Releases and Statements
24.06.16 - Socialist Labour Party welcomes Britain's vote to leave the EU. It will strengthen the struggle for a better world
Socialists have good cause to celebrate the British people's decision to come out of the European Union and get back into the world. The Socialist Labour Party's policy and reasons for leaving the European Union – very different from those of Tories or of UKIP – have been vindicated by the outcome of the Referendum.
The SLP has always recognised the EU as an engine of free-market globalised capitalism. Membership of the EU has inflicted horrendous economic, social and political damage to all working people trapped within it. As for Britain, 90% of our manufacturing and key industries have been wiped out with our health, education and welfare provision steadily wiped out. We see the damage everywhere around us in the need for food banks and campaigns to protect homeless families and hundreds of individuals sleeping rough, whilst high-cost sky-scrapers shoot up to house billionaires and blight our cities.
The decision by the British people to 'come out' of the unelected and unaccountable bastion of the European Union allows us to renew the fight to restore all the industries and services privatised by Tory and Labour Governments to public ownership – but this time we must campaign for true common and social ownership and control: in our badly damaged National Health Service; our social services including care for our elderly and children; in our education system; and we must demand the restoration of council housing, owned and controlled by local authorities.
The vote to leave the European Union is a challenge to Britain's trade union leaders to reflect the views of their members on issues such the abolition of Trident and opposition to nuclear power and fracking, alongside job protection, wages, zero-hours contracts, agency working and privatisation. The Socialist Labour Party has consistently pointed out that EU membership has eroded – not protected – workers' rights.
European Union directives and European Court of Justice decisions have robbed us of hard-won free collective bargaining, the right to strike, and attacked our pension rights. We must now all join a fight to overturn these injustices – and Britain's trade unions must give a lead in recovering the rights our forebears fought hard to achieve.
The Socialist Labour Party has consistently made clear the fundamental difference between immigration and people seeking asylum, on the one hand, and the massive inflow of 'migrant labour' from EU countries under the 'free movement of labour'. Both before and after the Lisbon Treaty in 2009 the number of immigrants/asylum-seekers entering Britain averaged 250,000 a year whilst the number of people emigrating from Britain averaged 350,000 a year.
On the other hand, in 2014/2015 whilst official figures recorded the numbers of 'migrant workers' entering Britain from EU countries as 480,000, during that same period the Government issued 1,222,000 National Insurance numbers – to migrant workers. This clearly shows that over 1.2 million EU 'migrant workers' entered Britain in 2014/2015.
The massive increase in the numbers entering Britain are a direct result of the European Union's central policy of free movement of labour and capital – in other words, a free-market philosophy. The free movement of capital has seen the destruction of key industries such as our automotive industry and heavy and light engineering, whilst all our key utilities such as electricity, gas and water are owned privately by foreign companies (not to mention the sell-off of our railways!). Our coal and steel industries have been or are being eliminated – yet Britain is importing – at an enormous cost - both steel and coal, produced elsewhere through subsidies and/or by slave (including child) labour.
The Socialist Labour Party has always argued that Britain's economy will thrive when it leaves the European Union and gets 'back into the world'. EU membership has left us with a trade deficit of between £60 and £100 billion each year, whilst trade with countries outside the EU has led to a trade surplus of between £30 and £50 billion per year.
We should extend our trading arrangements not only with the 53 Commonwealth countries but with the 100 plus other countries outside the European Union while maintaining trade on a fair basis - not a free-market basis - with the 27 countries inside the EU.
In the Referendum campaign we have witnessed the majority of Tory MPs desperate to remain within the European Union monolith, which is incidentally on the brink of settling an iniquitous free trade agreement – TTIP – with the United States. The Referendum campaign has exposed the collaborationist philosophy of the Labour Party with a majority of its Members of Parliament and its Leader shown to be completely out of touch with the problems facing their constituents.
Statements by Jeremy Corbyn (long admired as a Socialist campaigner/politician) that he is now in favour of a 'mixed economy' show an abandonment of principle and a betrayal of those Socialists who gave birth to the Labour Party in 1918. It is beyond dispute that the present day Labour Party and its Leader, Jeremy Corbyn, are pursuing the same collaborationist policies as other social democratic parties in Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Greece.
The result of the Referendum and the Socialist Labour Party's campaigning should persuade people to join our party and its fight for a Socialist future, for our children and our grand-children.

01.04.16 - Vote "NO" to EU says Scargill - The Socialist Case for Leaving the European Union
Socialist Labour Party Leader Arthur Scargill, speaking in South Yorkshire, outlined the case from the left for British withdrawal.
"Britain's membership of the EU had virtually destroyed our major industries - the latest victim being British Steel - while devastating the NHS, starving education and virtually eliminating council housing. The policy and austerity measures of EU directives have destroyed jobs and communities, spreading hardship and poverty ever wider yet the banks received a multi-billion pound bailout. Britain's loss of sovereignty is such that unless we leave the European Union the crisis, both economic and social, will get worse".
Mr Scargill lambasted the free movement of both labour and capital, which have resulted in the destruction of British Industry, zero-hours contracts, unemployment, homelessness and poverty not seen in Britain since the 1930s. He said: "What is needed is a policy in line with the economic principles that prevailed for a short period after 1945: we need import controls and subsidies to stop imports including goods produced in intolerable conditions by slave and child labour".
He continued: "Immigrants, particularly from former British colonies, and asylum-seekers in need of refuge are not the cause of the economic crisis and the massive population increase in Britain. Last year, for example, the number of immigrants and asylum seekers entering Britain was only 250,000 whilst 350,000 British citizens emigrated - in other words a net outflow of 100,000. However in the same year, the free movement of labour - a fundamental principle enshrined in Article 45 of the EU Treaty - resulted in over 550,000 citizens from amongst the 30 countries permitted to do so by the EU enering the UK 'freely'. It is this free movement of labour which has created a crisis both economic and social - and political.
He slammed the Labour Party leadership, both past and present, for its policy of remaining in the EU and working for "improvements". "The current Labour Party leadership's policy is a betrayal of socialist principle and a betrayal of all those in the Labour and Trades Union Movement who campaigned in 1975 for a 'No' vote. I was centrally involved, along with Tony Benn, in that campaign".
"In the forthcoming referendum, the people of Britain are going to have to decide whether we continue to surrender our sovereignty and become part of a United States of Europe - or whether we get out of this European Union hell and get back into the world.
I call upon everyone on 23 June to vote 'NO' and restore Britain to the British people."

21.02.16 - EU Referendum.
If Jeremy Corbyn does not campaign for the UK to leave the European Union it will be not only a u-turn but a sell-out of nearly 60 percent of Labour Party members who voted for him as Leader of the Labour Party. In 1975 I campaigned with Tony Benn against the European Common Market. I warned that it would become a United States of Europe controlled by an unelected body of bureaucrats, a warning that has become reality. Corbyn should commit all Labour MPs to vote against the Tories and call on the British People to vote to leave in the referendum on 23 June.
Arthur Scargill
Leader, Socialist Labour Party.
27.11.15 - Socialist Labour Party calls on all Labour MPs: Reject any proposal to bomb Syria!
In 2013, Parliament rejected a proposal to become involved in the armed conflict in the sovereign state of Syria. International law makes clear no country has the right to interfere in another country's internal affairs unless requested to do so by the government of that country. No such request has been made by the Syrian government to the United Kingdom.
Every Labour MP should, as they did in 2013, vote against any proposal to become involved in the armed conflict in Syria. Above all, Labour MPs should vote against Cameron's proposal to become involved in bombing in Syria.
When the Labour Party's membership elected Jeremy Corbyn Leader by 60% in September 2015 it was on the clear understanding that he opposed any UK involvement in the armed conflict in Syria and that Labour wants no part of yet another armed conflict in the Middle East following the bloody disaster in Iraq.
Corbyn's overwhelming election commits every Labour MP to oppose Cameron's proposal to commence bombing campaigns in Syria. There can be no basis for any Labour MP to abstain or seek to have a free vote on this fundamental issue.
The Socialist Labour Party calls on all Labour MPs to support a policy which was endorsed by 60% of Labour's membership as recently as September 2015. Vote No!
Arthur Scargill, Leader. Ken Capstick, Treasurer/Organiser. Kim Bryan, General Secretary.
23.11.15 - Labour leadership … statement by the National Executive Committee of the Socialist Labour Party.
Following its recent meeting the NEC expresses its full and unanimous support for the position outlined by the SLP Leader and SLP Treasurer in their statement of 19th September.
As an independent party, the SLP is not concerned in the affairs of other parties. Its policies are unaffected by debates, controversies or events occurring within or between non-socialist parties and groups.
To those outside our party who may be tempted to believe Labour under a new leader is offering 'hope' the committee wishes to address the following comments.
As our party leader explained in comments to the committee on the 19th September, the Labour Party was formed in 1918, many years after the Independent Labour Party and the original SLP, as a 'social democratic' counterweight to socialist ideas. No ruling social democratic (reformist) party has ever brought about a transition to a socialist economy or society. Syriza in Greece is the most recent example of 'left radicals' taking leadership of social democratic parties. The promise of principled opposition to the capitalist EU was, in open defiance of the Greek people, betrayed in favour of the usual social democratic 'accommodation' with powerful economic interests.
Even from opposition, the committee notes a number of policies associated with Jeremy Corbyn which appear already to have been shelved or amended, on the EU, fiscal policy, austerity, the revival of the coal and steel industries and even the re-nationalisation of the railways which we are told will happen only when private contracts expire. Both in its shadow cabinet and appointments to the House of Lords, Labour continues to promote pro capitalist, pro war figures, a tradition which is reproduced at local level where, in the experience of former Labour members who joined the SLP, local candidates are routinely sidelined in favour of 'career' politicians from privileged backgrounds.
The committee believes that many who drifted towards Labour because of Jeremy Corbyn were attracted by what they believed was the 'alternative' he was offering.
Yet the policies he advocated as a backbencher can never be put into practice through the forum of a political party committed to capitalism.
Because it does not operate in alliance with non socialists or reactionaries, the Socialist Labour Party alone offers the possibility of real socialism.
In the SLP, policies including withdrawal from the EU and NATO, unilateral nuclear disarmament, full employment, living pensions, free education and health care, abolition of the monarchy and unelected House of Lords, a new written constitution and election by proportional representation do not need to be compromised and will not be betrayed.
National Executive Committee, 23rd November 2015.
October 2014 - National Union of Mineworkers South Africa.
Arthur Scargill President of the International Energy and Mineworkers Organisation (IEMO) and Leader of the Socialist Labour Party (SLP) welcomes the decision by the National Union of Mineworkers South Africa (NUMSA) to resign as an affiliate to the ANC, an organisation which does not represent the socialist aspirations of workers in South Africa.
Mr. Scargill urges the NUMSA to take the next step and affiliate to the IEMO and become a sister party to the SLP in Britain which stands for the same aspirations as do socialists all over the world.

29.07.14 - Massacre in Gaza: No Excuses.
The National Executive Committee of the Socialist Labour Party condemns without reservation the latest massacre in Gaza by the Israeli Army.
The SLP rejects the corporate narrative that says western powers are entitled to dominate, destabilize or destroy sovereign states while calling those resisting occupation or oppression 'terrorists'.
Israeli violence against Palestine, including bombing, occupation, assassination, kidnapping and blockade are routine. Flowing from its colonial heritage and values, Israel needs to contain permanently the aspirations of the Palestinian people which it does not see as the equal of its own.
We do not therefore regard the current assault on the territory as 'provoked'.
We hold the western powers ultimately responsible for the crimes committed historically against the Palestinian people and against the peoples of neighbouring states by their proxy, Israel.
We call upon the community of independent states to unite in support of the principle of self determination which applies without discrimination to the people of Palestine as a whole including those displaced.

02.03.14 - SLP announces Welsh Candidates for the European Election.
The SLP is pleased to announce that on Saturday 1st March SLP Wales selected the four candidates that will stand on the Candidate List for the European Parliamentary Election on May 22nd.
The four candidates are, and will appear on the Candidate List, as follows -
1. Andrew Jordan, 2. Kathrine Jones, 3. David Lloyd Jones, 4. Liz Screen.
28.02.14 - SLP Statement - Party Welcomes Councillor Jim McDermott.
Our warmest welcome is extended to Councillor Jim McDermott who has joined the SLP after resigning from Labour.
Jim, who has represented the Eastbury ward of Barking and Dagenham since 2006, tells us he feels the Labour Party in Barking has over many years been taken over by people 'following a different political agenda' not consistent with the principles he believed the party represented when he joined it fifty years ago.
As an SLP councillor we believe Jim will be free to speak out more openly in support of the interests and needs of his electors as indeed it is his wish to do.
His actions demonstrate integrity, and a concern for the benefit of others over self which is rare in politics these days.
If you share the concerns of Jim McDermott and many others, who are disgusted by the brutal capitalism that is scarring our society and our world, take the first step. Join Us!
Kim Singleton, SLP General Secretary.

David Tennant
this wiki
David John McDonald (better known under his stage name David Tennant) portrayed Barty Crouch Jr in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. He is best known for his role as the Tenth Doctor in the long-running BBC series Doctor Who.
Early life
Tennant attended the Ralston Primary and Paisley Grammar School in Scotland. He also attended Saturday classes at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama.
Tennant made his professional acting debut while still in secondary school. When he was 16 he acted in an anti-smoking film made by the Glasgow Health Board which aired on television and was also screened in schools. The following year he played a role in an episode of Dramarama.
Tennant's first professional role upon graduating from drama school was in a staging of The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui co-starring Ashley Jensen, one of a few plays in which he performed as part of the agitprop 7:84 Theatre Company.
Tennant's first major TV role was as the manic depressive Campbell in the Scottish drama series Takin' Over the Asylum (1994). During filming, Tennant met comic actress and writer Arabella Weir. When he moved to London shortly afterwards he lodged with Weir for five years and became godfather to her youngest child. He has subsequently appeared alongside Weir in many productions; as a guest in her spoof television series, Posh Nosh; in the Doctor Who audio drama Exile- during which Weir played an alternate version of the Doctor- and as panellists on the West Wing Ultimate Quiz on More4.
Tennant developed his career in the British theatre, frequently performing with the Royal Shakespeare Company for whom he specialised in comic roles such as Touchstone in As You Like It, Antipholus of Syracuse in The Comedy of Errors (a role he recorded for the 1998 Arkangel Complete Shakespeare production of the play) and Captain Jack Absolute in The Rivals, although he also played the tragic role of Romeo in Romeo and Juliet.
In 2000, Tennant appeared at the Royal National Theatre, London, playing the role of Nicholas Beckett in Joe Orton's What the Butler Saw. The plot required Tennant to appear near-naked on stage.
Tennant appeared in several high-profile dramas for the BBC, including Takin' Over the Asylum (1994), He Knew He Was Right (2004), Blackpool (2004), Casanova (2005) and The Quatermass Experiment (2005). In film, he has appeared in Stephen Fry's Bright Young Things, and as Barty Crouch Jr in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. One of his earliest big screen roles was in Jude (1996), in which he shared a scene with his Doctor Who predecessor Christopher Eccleston, playing a drunken undergraduate who challenges Eccleston's Jude to prove his intellect.
In 2005, soon after his appearance in Goblet of Fire, Tennant was signed to take over as the Tenth Doctor on Doctor Who after Christopher Eccleston chose to leave after a single season. Tennant is has been identified by Doctor Who Magazine and other media as one of the most popular actors to play the iconic SF character. In October 2008, he announced that he would be stepping down as The Doctor after appearing in four special episodes scheduled to air by the end of 2009; he was replaced by relative unknown Matt Smith, though Tennant was then confirmed to be reprising his role as the Tenth Doctor alongside Smith and John Hurt in the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary special, Day of the Doctor, in November 2013.[3]
In 2008, coinciding with his announcement regarding Doctor Who, Tennant performed in Hamlet the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon, UK. His co-star was Patrick Stewart of Star Trek fame. A back injury forced Tennant to undergo surgery towards the end of 2008, but he recovered in time to complete his run on Hamlet and film his final Doctor Who episodes.
Since completing his final scenes in Doctor Who, Tennant has filmed his performance of Hamlet for eventual TV broadcast, and is reportedly being considered for a number of high-profile movie roles. He is also scheduled to host Masterpiece Contemporary, a new version of Masterpiece Theatre, for the American PBS network in the fall of 2009.[4]
Tennant performed alongside Doctor Who co-star Catherine Tate (Donna Noble) in Much Ado About Nothing between May 2011 and September 2011.
He also did voice work opposite Imelda Staunton again playing a protagonist in the Aardman film The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists!. Her voicing Queen Victoria and him voicing Charles Darwin.
He currently plays Detective Inspector Alec Hardy on the BBC series Broadchurch. He is also the voice of the latest incarnation of the Fugitoid in the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series.
In 2017, he will voice for a Disney XD reboot of DuckTales as Scrooge McDuck.
Since 2015, Tennant has portrayed Kilgrave in the Netflix original series, Jessica Jones.
Behind the scenes
- Coincidentally, the last chapter that Tennant's Crouch Jr appears in The Goblet of Fire is called "The Parting of the Ways" - as is the Doctor Who revival Series 1 finale where Eccleston's Ninth Doctor regenerates into Tennant's Tenth Doctor. The amount of time the characters appear in is also very similar, as Crouch Jr appears for just the first page of the chapter, while the Tenth Doctor appears in the final scene of the episode.
- Tennant's first true solo appearance as the Tenth Doctor occurred in a (canonical) mini-episode entitled Born Again in some circles, set immediately after his regeneration and produced for the 2005 Children in Need Appeal. This episode was first broadcast on 18 November 2005—the same day Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was released in cinemas.
- Tennant and Freema Agyeman (companion Martha Jones) mention Expelliarmus, J. K. Rowling and the seventh Harry Potter book in the Doctor Who episode The Shakespeare Code.
- During the two-part Doctor Who story Rise of the Cybermen / The Age of Steel, he appears along with Roger Lloyd-Pack - who in Goblet of Fire, appeared as Barty Crouch Snr. Ironically, their roles from Goblet of Fire are reversed in the episode, as Lloyd-Pack is a hero in Goblet of Fire but a villain in Doctor Who while Tennant is a Goblet of Fire villain but the hero in Doctor Who.
- In 2013, IGN ranked Tennant as the best Doctor,[5] along with the Daily Mail[6] and Radio Times
- His wife Georgia (neé Moffett) is the daughter of Fifth Doctor Peter Davison.

Article in process
Atomic gaming is about breaking things down from their complicated synergetic whole to their basic components- their atoms so to speak. Â How you connect the atoms, makes up the molecules and the large shapes that you actually use.
You want to run a scenario... actually you want to run a game session, that has one or more plot lines associated with it. Â You want to tell a story or achieve a goal. Â
There are dozens of ways to structure things, or just wing it counting on your innate sense of drama honed by years of experiencing movies/ TV/ Books.
if that was enough, then there would not be so many people trying to explain how to GM.
So lets go to some definitions
A story is a string of related events that occur in places over time. Â Each event or action is contained in a scene. Â
Each story will have at lease one plot line, or string of events. Â In most games it will have two or more. Â Each one of these plot lines is structred the same way.
Each scene is a step to completing a given story or story line.
Designing scenarios, plot lines, and story arcs is hard work.
A story is a string of related events that occur in place. Â Each event or action is contained in a scene. Â
Each story will have at lease one plot line, or string of events. Â In most games it will have two or more. Â Each one of these plot lines is structred the same way.
Each scene is a step to completing a given story or story line.
Introduction and event that catalyzes action, and then flipping between dramatic event, development, and reversal scene. Â Eventually things become resolved. Â
Once you determine a story line, you need to break it down in steps that must be met.
Each step becomes a scene
You then string the scene from the various story arcs together in an order that make sense for you and the flow of the game.
So the trick of this is organizing the scenes so they make sense
I do this with 3x5 cards that define the scenes for the various story arcs. Â
Series: The name of the plot thread and a number saying when it should occur in the order
Title: Name of the scene
Type: Intro/ Action/ Development/ Reversal/ Conclusion
Goal of scene
Type of action
  any required mechanics
  scaling issues
Inputs: What scenes will either be required to achieve this scene or kind of scene before it
Outputs, where it can lead
Stageing requirements: What you need to make the scene work. Â
Now you can order the cards for the game, plan cut scene, see graphically where the story is going.

Okay, the article will not be called atomic gaming... but we get over it.
..we all have an issue, what to do this session.
..we have plotlines.
What do players want, they want a sense of success/ accomplishment.
...They want to do something interesting, important, or cool every session.
... They want to be entertained by a story comperable to those on TV or Movies.
How does one plan a session to include all of this?
Do what professional writers do, organize and plot your game out on SCENCE CARDS.
This article supposes that you have your own plotlines. Generating them is the providence of another article (lest this one become 30 pages).
There are two kinds of plotlines. Main and subplots.
You will always use the main plotlines, you get to pick and choose which subplots.
a) the best way to determine which plots and subplots to use is to determine what "thing" each player will be doing. Everyone needs at least one good something every session.
The point of this article is to get you thinking of plotlines in a way different than you normall will. You should see each one as a series of Events. Each important event moves the plot forward.
Each event is something important that will need to happen. Every event will occur over a scene. (explain scene)
Now you need to get between key scenes... thus comes the transitions.
Event, transition, Event, transition.
Each tansition is what links major events. These could include development scenes or physical travelling.
You are not a documentry. You do not have to run every minute of every day of every character's life. If it is important, play it through. If it is not, narrate it, and move on.
Unlike a movie or such, you have to make a passing mention of every transition. In a story you can make assumption. In a game, your players have to know what happened to their character over the transition.
Personal goals for each PC. Ususally determine when the PC is first created or developed in play. Some players are nice enough to generate their own in play.
Same process. Event.. transition... event ... transition
There may be more time between events. In short, other Events or other plot line's transitions will occur between plotline events.
Now break down events into scenes.
Most events will be single scene. These are easy. Some will be a combination of related scenes.
Scene cards
all the various mechanics explained.
Scene Log
Shuffling your cards.
Conclusions is example
Perhaps this example needs to be echo from introduction.
Actually this is an article I had not finished writing yet. The reason it does not make sense yet is because it is not done.
The cards are based on story writer scene cards. This is a tool used by professional writers, novelists and script writers. They have everything you mentioned and a bit more. Shuffling the cards is the act of putting the various scenes in their prefered order and linking them with appropriate transitions.
Yes, cards are set up ahead of time. Your players will never think they are being railroaded. It is not a simple single line, it always branches, inserting minor scenes and other transitions, between major events/ scenes.
You can determine an approximate order for the game to set up the appropriate flow, which you and the GM can approximately maintain by simple narration.
If you don't set up the cards ahead of time, then what is the point of working on the scenes ahead of time. There will be no sense of flow or story, just a jumble of semi-random events in less than perfect temporal order... just the order theya re gotten too.
Sure you will need to be flexible, but by doing the work ahead and knowing what transitions will exit existing scenes, you will be ready. There are several branches of cards, not a single line. So options are automatically in place. Most scenes have predictable exits that PCs will hit 90% of the time. Sure they will sometimes go off on their own and do something odd and you will have to adjust, but most of their responses are pretty predictable if you know your players.
Also if you give your players the correct clues and leads, they will follow a logical order on their own. If your PCs seem to go off somewhere else or follow red herrings or odd lines of investigation, you, as the GM, have not done a good enough job setting up the player's motivations and providing direct and followable clues. (If your clues are more complicated than those found on a television show mystery or a thriller novel most PCs will fail to follow them.)

It is all in the cards.
If you are GM, you have encountered this problem. You are about to have a game session. You have your main scenario you want to run. There are two or three plotlines tied to your characters that need to be resolved, with many of those plotlines excluding most of the characters in the game.Oh, and then there is the investigation that one of the players is running as well. Being a GM, you want to tell something like a story and achieve some goal every session. Yet how do you do this with this gordeon knot of plotlines.
There are dozens of ways to structure game sessions and present game stories. You can just wing it. You can count on your innate sense of drama honed by years of experiencing movies, tv shows, and books. You can copy for favorite author. These tools can work. The catch is that players expect plots and their presenation equal to that of movies, tv shows, and books. These are written by "experts". Most of us are not writers equipped expert skills. But we can use the tools of expert writers. We can use Scene Cards.
In the Begining
To use Scene Cards, we need to set up some definitions and, for some, a new way to look at story set up. The most important is this: A story is a string of related events that build upon each other. Each story has one or more of these strings of events or plot lines. These plotlines build upon each other expanding the story. (
Note: This article supposes that the GM has or can generate their own plot lines. Generating Plotlines is a different article.
). Each event or action in the story is contained in a scene. In theatre and literature, a scene is a self-contained episode within a larger work. In recorded visual works such as TV and movies, a scene has the same basic definition, but is typically much shorter. Basically, it refers to a part of the action in a single general location. Gaming uses the same definition as TV/Movies, in short.. all the action that occurs in a general area over a continuous period of time. There are action scenes, character development scenes, mood scenes, development scenes, transitional scenes, and a dozen other kinds of scenes. No matter what kind of scene you are talking about, the
things you must remember about a scenes is a) Things happen over a scene and b) each scene has a purpose (first and foremost to move the plot line along to its conclusion/ resolution).
And then there was three
For plot line purposes, there are three types of scenes: Key Scenes, Transition Scenes, and General Scenes.
The most important part of each plotline you develop is the key scenes, the important events that the characters must go through to get to the conclusion of the story/ plot line.
Little Red Riding Hood: Meet the Woodsman and Wolf, Go to Grandmas,
For Hamlet: Meeting with the Ghost, Investigating the King's Guilt. Hamlet to Kill King, are all the key scenes of the main plotline (there are others in the play, some spawned by the actions that occur in these key scenes). Other important scenes are generated by o
There are things between these Key Scenes.
Scenes and Transitional Scenes. At minimum, there are transitional scenes.
At maximum there are scenes, more transitional scenes, and even other key scenes for other plot lines.
Transitional scenes connect the key scenes; i.e. get the character from key scene to key scene next. In most cases, the connections are immediate (one to three scenes of travelling, minor checking, or miscalenous character development). However, the transition could be "long", with entire adventures and entire other plot lines occuring before you reach the next key scene in the given plotline.
Crooked, Branching Line
Unlike a story, the plot is not a game is not line. Players make decisions and don't know your script. Therefore there are branches and possiblities as to where they go and what they do. There are usually many ways to get to a given key scene. The more options you provide, the easier it will be on the players and the GM.
Anatomy of a Scene Card
We start at the very top of a three by five card, then work our way down the card.
1) At very top: Identity Line - Identifying the plot card
2) Entrace Requirement - What must of happened before to use the scene.
3) Purpose - What the goal of the scene is.
4) Stage Dressing - Important things to have ready for the scene
5) Flavor Text- Bits of description for the scene.
6) Scene Mechanics - Any important game mechanics that the scene might use. At minimum, the page #/ paragraph # of the rules in the book.
7) Exits- Possible plot paths.
Note: Some people use only one side of the cards and have mutliple cards for the same scene, some use both sides, others use 5x7 cards, others use full sheets of paper as their plot cards. It is all up to you, the end user, to find out what is best for you.
1) Identity line: This is where you write your reference information for the card. The format varies depending on who is telling you about scene cards. The one that has worked best for me is: Top Left: Plot line name, Top Right scene name and number.
Top Left: Plotline name
Top Right: Scene name and ID# if needed.
These are your card identifiers.
Many GM's draw a stripe of color using a highligher along the top. This way they can identify the type of card by sight.
Entrance Requirements: Includes location (specific or general), events, required characters, required NPCs
Purpose of the scene:
Stage Dressing: things that must be in place (goons, monsters, items, etc)
Flavor text: for setting or scene
Scene Mechanics: Any rule mechanics (and page numbers to find them) required for the scene.
Bottom: Exits- Plot line options

Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory, an experimental research station for the U.S. Forest Service outside Franklin, celebrated its 75th anniversary this month.
The 5,500-acre forested basin in southern Macon County has been fertile ground for research into how forests behave — and more specifically how the creeks within a watershed respond under different conditions.
"Cutting-edge research at the Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory has led to the development and adoption of 'best management practices' that promote cleaner and more abundant water supplies for people in southern Appalachia and beyond," said Jim Reaves, director of the Forest Service Southern Research Station.
Since its establishment in 1934, Coweeta scientists have examined different aspects of forest ecology and conducted several, landmark studies that have changed the way forests are managed.
From the best way to protect streams from erosion when building roads to projecting the fallout from climate change, much of what we know today about stream flow generation on steep forest lands has resulted from the work of Coweeta scientists.

A weeklong WHO meeting began Monday in Maputo, Mozambique. More than 60 percent of all people with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa, WHO says. In 2004, it is estimated that 2.3 million people in the region died of AIDS, while another 3.1 million became infected with HIV. AIDS has slashed life expectancy to below 40 years in Botswana, Central African Republic, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Rwanda, Swaziland, and Zambia. In Zimbabwe, life expectancy has plummeted from 52 years in 1990 to 34 in 2003. The news was slightly better from some East Africa countries: HIV rates are declining in Ethiopia and Kenya. Uganda reported a steep drop from a 13 percent infection rate in the early 1990s to 4.1 percent by the end of 2003. But Africa has seen a TB spike described as "lamentable" by Sambo. The disease, which has multiplied four-fold in 18 of the hardest-hit nations since 1990, now kills a half-million Africans annually. Although 42 African nations follow WHO's recommended six-month regimen for treating TB, the rate of accurate detection remains below international standards. Access to TB drugs and trained staff must be increased, Sambo said. Associated Press 08.24.05; Emmanuel Camillo This article was provided by CDC National Prevention Information Network.

The short form of the liner notes goes something like this: In 1964, after the discouraging lack of success that met the first Simon & Garfunkel release, Paul Simon moved to England where he became part of the local folk music scene. He returned to the USA only after producer Tom Wilson got a hit single for the duo by adding overdubs to the original version of "The Sound of Silence" and the rest is history.
However, while in England, Simon had recorded an album simply called The Paul Simon Songbook. This album contains songs that would ultimately become mainstays of the Simon & Garfunkel canon, but here all the songs are stripped down to their most elemental form: a single voice and a guitar. It's essentially a folksinger's demo – no additional production, no angelically soaring vocal work by Garfunkel, no expectations of instant pop success – just the songs.
All hold up well and some actually sound more convincing in their starkness. "Patterns" itself is worth the price of the disc, but other eventually well-loved S&G works appear here as well, and in what some might say their purest form: "The Boxer," "The Sound of Silence," "A Church is Burning" and "I Am a Rock" are all prime examples of an artist's efforts to get the point of each song across quickly and effectively. Short and sweet, the original twelve songs, as well as two bonus alternate takes, total less than 40 minutes. But who likes padding anyway?
The only mystery here is why Paul Simon didn't reissue this album much sooner. It didn't see the modern world until 2004, nearly four decades after its original 1965 release. Perhaps it's a case of an artist being too close to his own work to see it for what it really is. In any case, it's an excellent supplement to the Simon & Garfunkel catalog and an essential cornerstone of Paul Simon's solo work.

Flashback Friday! Mushroom Soup Edition.
Friday again already! The week went by pretty quickly. Mostly rainy and cold here the past few days, at least cool for June. So I'm once again joining Suzy at Kitchen Bouquet for a Flashback Friday. Check out Suzy's blog to see the other bloggers who are flashing back to a really great recipe, flowers or whatever they feel like flashing back to, you can go look or sign up and join in on the flashbacks!
This time I'm flashing back to Susan of Savoring Time in the Kitchen, her fantastic Mushroom Soup. Originally posted on the Garden recipes Forum, it's been a hit in our house ever since! A simple but really delicious recipe. Perfectly simple and elegant for guests and perfect for the family on a cold, rainy day.
The notes are from Susan. She also suggests reading the reviews for this recipe at epicurious, you can get some very good ideas. I made the Parmesan Croutons, more like crostini, slices of baguette and floated them on the soup. The notes are Susan's, but I also used an immersion blender and this time I used cremini mushrooms. Use whatever mushrooms you like.
Mushroom Soup
originally posted SusanQ @ GB's (One comment suggests making parmesan croutons which I used and were a wonderful addition)
Source: Epicurious.com
Makes 4 servings.
By Anthony Bourdain with Jose de Meirelles and Philippe Lajaunie Bloomsbury
Printable recipe
6 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, thinly sliced
12 ounces button mushrooms
4 cups light chicken stock or broth
1 sprig of flat parsley
Salt and pepper
2 ounces high-quality sherry (don't use the cheap grocery-store variety; it's salty and unappetizing and will ruin your soup)
Medium saucepan
Wooden spoon
Blender (I used an immersion blender)
In the medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat and add the onion. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, then add the mushrooms and the remaining butter. Let the mixture sweat for about 8 minutes, taking care that the onion doesn't take on any brown color. Stir in the chicken stock and the parsley and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce the heat and simmer for about an hour.
After an hour, remove the parsley and discard. Let the soup cool for a few minutes, then transfer to the blender and carefully blend at high speed until smooth. Do I have to remind you to do this in stages, with the blender's lid firmly held down, and with the weight of your body keeping that thing from flying off and allowing boiling hot mushroom purée to erupt all over your kitchen?
When blended, return the mix to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and bring up to a simmer again. Add the sherry, mix well, and serve immediately.
To astound your guests with a Wild Mushroom Soup, simply replace some of those button mushrooms with a few dried cèpes or morels, which have been soaked until soft, drained, and squeezed. Not too many; the dried mushrooms will have a much stronger taste, and you don't want to overwhelm the soup. Pan sear, on high heat, a single small, pretty, fresh chanterelle or morel for each portion, and then slice into a cute fan and float on top in each bowl.

Nice soup and photo. It's amazing how difficult it is to get good photos of your food - a real art in itself. I liked this soup and really am looking forward to blogging about French Onion soup from the same book. Couple of suggestions if you do make it : it benefits from a little cream , set aside some mushrooms before blending and add them (roughly chopped) back in at the end. Also go easy on the sherry I've found better results possible by adding a little less sherry so that it doesn't dominate the taste [but maybe because it's not top of the line stuff].
ReplyDeleteMarkLesHalles, great ideas, I've added them to the notes!
Thanks, Susan, it's such a great soup, and I can just see that original post when you first made it. The red bowls :)
Cynthia, I think it was on my other blog, the one that's now Lost in Cyberspace! I'm just flashing back to the ones I loved, whether I blogged it or not!
Marsha, yes, they bring them back to the top of the list again!
Suzy, you're going to love that blender. DO NOT LIFT IT UP WHILE WHIZZING, ask me how I know that?
Thanks, Kevin, Terry & Dennis, we love mushrooms soups, too!
Thank you for taking the time to comment. They are fun to read and very much appreciated! Sorry for comment moderation, the spam has been overwhelming lately.

in the Catcher in the Rye
Abstract: Though controversial, the novel the Catcher in The Rye appealed to a great number of people. It was a hugely popular bestseller and general critical success. The Catcher in the Rye was frequently read as a tale of an individual's alienation within a heartless world. Holden seemed to stand for young people everywhere, who felt themselves be set on all sides by pressures to grow up and live their lives according to the rules, to disengage from meaningful human connection. In his age, young people can easily feel lonely. This feeling is universal to young people.
Key words: loneliness, Holden,
Biography of the Author
Born in New York City on the first day of 1919, J.D. Salinger is the son of a Jewish father and a Christian mother. After brief periods of enrollment at both NYU and Columbia University, Salinger devoted himself entirely to writing, and by 1940 he had published several short stories in periodicals. Although his career as a writer was interrupted by World War II, Salinger returned from service in 1946 and resumed his career, writing primarily for The New Yorker, as well as many other well-known publications.
Salinger has continually enjoyed major critical and popular acclaim with The Catcher in the Rye, the story of Holden Caulfield, a rebellious boarding-school student who attempts to run away from the adult world that he finds "phony." In many ways reminiscent of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Salinger's only novel finds great sympathy for its wayward child protagonist. It drew from characters he had created in two short stories published in 1945 and 1946, "This Sandwich Has No Mayonnaise" and "I'm Crazy." The latter story is an alternate take on several of the chapters in The Catcher in the Rye (1935).
Since 1953, Salinger has resided in Cornish, New Hampshire, and claims that he continues to write. Although details about Salinger are notoriously vague because of his reclusiveness, he has become the subject of much speculation. Personal information about Salinger is therefore limited but in great demand. In the memoir of Maynard, an eighteen-year-old female student at Yale who later left college to live with Salinger for nine months, information revealed that Salinger's demand for privacy stemmed from his awareness that his private activities, including several relationships with young women like Maynard, would ultimately ruin his reputation.
Two collections of his work, Franny and Zooey and Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters, all of which had appeared previously in The New Yorker, were published in book form in the early 1960s. Salinger died at his home on January 27, 2010 Introduction
The Catcher in The Rye is a 1951 novel by J. D. Salinger. Originally published for adults, it has since become popular with adolescent readers for its themes of teenage confusion, angst, alienation,[and rebellion. It has been translated into almost all of the world's major languages. Around 250,000 copies are sold each year, with total sales of more than 65 million books. The novel's protagonist and antihero, Holden Caulfield, has become an icon for teenage rebellion.
Summary of Plot
The story takes the form of first person narrative by Holden Caulfield, a 16-year-old student who had been kicked out of three private schools, or four if counting in Pencey prep, after the expulsion from where Holden began his story. Holden had been the manager of the school fencing team until he lost all their foils on the subway. At the end of the semester, Holden failed four out of his five subjects, thus being driven out of the forth school he had attended. Because he was not supposed to leave until Wednesday, he paid a visit to his history teacher Mr. Spencer, who told him that "life is a game" and one should "play it according to the rules," Holden dismissed much of what Spencer said. Back to his dorm, Holden wrote a...

Adverse Impact: Implications for Organizational Staffing and High Stakes SelectionThis text is the best single repository for a comprehensive examination of the scientific research and practical issues associated with adverse impact. Adverse impact occurs when there is a significant difference in organizational outcomes to the disadvantage of one or more groups defined on the basis of demographic characteristics such as race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, etc. This book shows, based on scientific research, how to design selection systems that minimize subgroup differences. The primary object of this volume in the SIOP series is to bring together renowned experts in this field to present their viewpoints and perspectives on what underlies adverse impact, where we are in terms of assessing it and what we may have learned (or not learned) about minimizing it. |

Robotics and LEGO Activities Set Saturday at UC Riverside
More than 400 middle school students from the Inland region will gather for hands-on competitions in robotics
RIVERSIDE, Calif. (www.ucr.edu) — Inland middle school students will build and float LEGO boats in a contest to see which boat sinks and which boat survives to round up an oil spill on the top of the water as part of the 2011 MESA Robotics Invitational at UC Riverside on Saturday, Nov. 5.
This year's event, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., will draw more than 400 middle school students pursuing one of two challenges:
"Disasters In, Near and Around the Sea," inspired by the Macondo/BP oil spill. This is outdoors and likely to provide easy access for camera crews between 9 and 11 a.m. on the lawn near the corner of Aberdeen and North Campus Drive.
"Food Factor," an indoor game inspired by many recent food borne pathogen outbreaks. Teams of students will build robots using the LEGO Mindstorms NXT kits that will accomplish more than 20 tasks on a large game board, all relating to the issue of food safety. Robots must be programmed to function autonomously.
A gift from Google is making this competition possible. The event is hosted by the Mathematics, Engineering, Science, Achievement (MESA) Schools Program at UCR, in conjunction with the San Bernardino Community College District and FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Lego League (FLL).
Middle schools participating include: Badger Springs; Colton; Landmark; Kolb; Mira Loma; Raney; Vista Heights; University Prep.
The Mathematics, Engineering and Science Achievement program (MESA) is an academically based outreach program of the UC Riverside Bourns College of Engineering. Since 1999, the program has addressed the needs of math/science education by providing opportunities for interest and growth in engineering to under-represented and disadvantaged students. Operating in 21 schools and 10 districts throughout the Inland Empire, the MESA model is accessible and practical, and will continue to impact and prepare middle and high school students for success in higher education.
FIRST was founded in 1989 to inspire young people's interest and participation in science and technology. Based in Manchester, NH, the 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity designs accessible, innovative programs that motivate young people to pursue education and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math, while building self-confidence, knowledge, and life skills. The San Bernardino Community College District has made a concerted effort to institute and promote the mission of FIRST in San Bernardino County.
Five UCR engineering students who are officers and members of MESA attended a leadership conference in October.
- Daneshia Slaughter, bioengineering major, Society of Women Engineers.
- Wyatt Duvall, mechanical engineering major, Human Powered Vehicle (HPV) Team Leader; American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
- Maricruz Ayala, chemical engineer major, Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers.
- Roslyn Womble, mechanical engineering,National Society of Black Engineers.
- Ebube Agu, mechanical engineering, National Society of Black Engineers.
"We know that California's economy needs more STEM workers to stay competitive," said MESA Executive Director Oscar F. Porter. "These students provide the solution to industry's need for well-trained professionals.
"They were selected to attend the conference because these students have strong leadership skills. This event gives them a chance to interact extensively with STEM professionals currently working in the field," said Porter.

text: What he said was that he hopes the USFSA consider his track record before deciding solely on his performances in this one competition. That was right after his skate, before the last group had even skated, am I right? Before any final medal positions were even known? He made his case and his case only, did not mention any names and no results were even in at that point. And then said he wasn't too optimistic about it. And that's it. I thought there was nothing unsportsmanlike in his behaviour or his words, in fact I'm impressed by how composed/strong he came off. As opposed to 'pleading' or whatever nonsense the press has printed so far, for example. Now that I've finally seen the interview, I actually almost snorted out loud because everybody's been making it out to seem like he got on his hands and knees and begged or something. *holds back an eyeroll, but only just barely*

The horn was very sensitive, all I had to do was brush it with my purse or elbow,etc and it would blow. It didn't stick or stay on but was annoying. Had my garage people look at it and when they got done, it didnt ever work again! They denied they did anything to make this happen. Now the horn will not work at all..O'rileys man said it could be a connection under the hood.. Already checked the fuses under the dash, any other fuses I should check?

Cherry v. Com.
, the Virginia Court of Appeals, in an opinion by Judge Elder, joined by Chief Judge Fitzpatrick and Judge Annunziata, said among other things: "Absent an express pronouncement on this issue by the United States or Virginia Supreme Courts, we follow the Fourth Circuit's approach." This on the issue of the constitutional standard for warrantless entries.

Apr-26-2012 01:21TweetFollow @OregonNews 14 Oregon House Reps are ALEC MembersSubmitted by Michael Munk Salem-News.comALEC has boasted that about 17% of its bills are passed each year.
(PORTLAND, OR) - Washington D.C.-based ALEC—the American Legislative Exchange Council, has just been charged in a Whistleblower complaint to the IRS by the nonpartisan advocacy group Common Cause for "misuse of charity laws, massive under reporting of lobbying, and obtaining improper tax breaks for corporate funders at taxpayer expense." As of last year, ALEC was funded by over 200 corporations contributing millions of dollars annually, and included almost 2000 state legislators as paid members. As identified in a Common Cause Oregon report, American Legislative Exchange Council in Oregon: Campaign Contributions and Legislators, fourteen Oregon legislators, all Republicans, are ALEC members. The following list of names, together with their positions at ALEC, is linked from Sourcewatch.org. All are members of the Oregon House. Those in bold have Democratic opposition in the upcoming election. § Rep. John Huffman (R-59) § Rep. Gene Whisnant (R-53), State Chairman, International Relations Task Force member and 2011 ALEC State Legislator of the Year § Rep. Matt Wingard (R-26) § Rep. Tim Freeman (R-2), ALEC Energy, Environment and Agriculture Task Force Member § Rep. Katie Eyre (Brewer) (R-29), ALEC International Relations Task Force Member § Rep. Shawn Lindsay (R-30), ALEC Public Safety and Elections Task Force Member § Rep. Mike McLane (R-55), ALEC Tax and Fiscal Policy Task Force Member § Rep. Jason Conger (R-54), ALEC Civil Justice Task Force Member § Rep. Matt Wand (R-49), ALEC Civil Justice Task Force Member § Rep. Wally Hicks (R-3), ALEC Civil Justice Task Force Member § Rep. Sal Esquivel (R-6) § Rep. Bill Kennemer (R-39) § Rep. Bruce Hanna (R-7) § Rep. Kim Thatcher (R-25) According to the New York Times, ALEC's main work is (1) write about a thousand of its own "model" pro-corporate bills annually; (2) track legislation—especially revenue bills—in all 50 states; and to (3) flag progressive bills for opposition by conservative lawmakers. ALEC bills are distributed nationally, but under the guise that they have originated locally in the various state legislatures. ALEC has boasted that about 17% of its bills are passed each year. For much more information in detail, please also visit ALEC Exposed.org. We will bring you updates about ALEC, including a list of its bills recently introduced by Oregon legislators, and would love your help in watching for ALEC bills in the 2013 legislature. To date, most ALEC success in Oregon has been in privatizing education. Want to work on a campaign? The races are on for those legislators above who are in bold.

What does cadiz mean?
Definitions for cadizˈkɑ dis
Here are all the possible meanings and translations of the word cadiz.
Princeton's WordNet
an ancient port city in southwestern Spain
Cadiz is a city and port in southwestern Spain. It is the capital of Cádiz province, one of eight which make up the autonomous community of Andalusia. Cadiz, the oldest continuously inhabited city in Spain and one of the oldest in all southwestern Europe, has been a principal home port of the Spanish Navy since the accession of the Spanish Bourbons in the 18th century. The city is a member of the Most Ancient European Towns Network. It is also the site of the University of Cadiz. Despite its unique site — on a narrow slice of land surrounded by the sea — Cadiz is, in most respects, a typically Andalusian city with a wealth of attractive vistas and well-preserved historical landmarks. The older part of Cadiz, within the remnants of the city walls, is commonly referred to as the Old Town. It is characterised by the antiquity of its various quarters, among them El Pópulo, La Viña, and Santa María, which present a marked contrast to the newer areas of town. While the Old City's street plan consists of narrow winding alleys connecting large plazas, newer areas of Cadiz typically have wide avenues and more modern buildings. In addition, the city is dotted with numerous parks where exotic plants flourish, including giant trees supposedly brought to Spain by Columbus from the New World.
The Nuttall Encyclopedia
one of the chief commercial ports in Spain, in Andalusia; founded by the Phoenicians about 1100 B.C.; called Gades by the Romans; at the NW. extremity of the Isle of Leon, and separated from the rest of the island by a channel crossed by bridges; it is 7 m. from Xeres and 50 m. from Gibraltar, and carries on a large export trade.

The Inquirer has been looking at the latest release of Microsoft�s Vista operating system. This time, we tackle build 5744, otherwise known as Release Candidate 2. Tested today is the x64 version, which has a date stamp of 03/10/06. So what has changed over RC1 and earlier builds? Elsewhere, Microsoft has said they expect Vista's deployment rate to be twice that of Windows XP. Finally, even though RC2 will be the last public test build, Microsoft still has changes up its sleeve for Vista RTM.

Ducks win as Perry follows the bouncing puck
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Sometimes the bounces just come to you and sometimes you work to get those bounces. Corey Perry is fine with whichever way it works.
Perry jumped on a fortunate one that popped out in front of the Columbus net, using it to fire the puck past sprawling Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobrovsky with 2:25 left to give the Ducks a 4-3 win Sunday night at Nationwide Arena.
A crucial game-ending penalty kill by the Ducks (9-3-0) sealed their second straight win after opening their eight-game trip with two losses. Earlier this season, Perry won a game in Winnipeg after a gift third-period turnover right to him.
"It was just one of those ones where it takes a weird hop and it comes right to me," Perry said. "If it didn't go in, I'm probably going to hear from the bench for not shooting.
"It was one of those things where I knew what I had to do with it once I got by him."
The Ducks were far from perfect, but their subpar special teams came through for once. Emerson Etem put in a rebound during a five-minute power play early in the third period after they had dropped to 3-for-48 with the man advantage.
"We did absolutely need it," Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau said. "Because I thought that was going to be a complete game-changer if we didn't score on that power play."
Artem Anisimov's second goal forged a 3-3 tie until Perry broke it and the Ducks finished by erasing a 6-on-4 Jackets advantage over the final 1:27 with Francois Beauchemin in the penalty box and Columbus pulling Bobrovsky for an extra attacker.
But the Ducks continue to lose players to injury. The five-minute advantage came when Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky leveled center Saku Koivu with a hit, knocking Koivu from the game and earning Dubinsky a five-minute major and game misconduct.
Boudreau said Koivu was "knocked out" but that "he looked like he was OK" after talking to him.

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Stage Delicatessen Restaurant Review: With virtually every item on the menu named for a celebrity, from the Martha Stewart Chef Salad to the Pete Sampras Sliced Steak, the Carnegie's archrival has no qualms about bidding for the tourist dollar. But that doesn't stop locals from lining up for their share of the massive (if expensive) open-face sandwiches, homemade soups (the borscht is a perennial favorite) and smoked fish platters. The knishes, both round and square, are must-try. Other standout starters include chopped liver, creamed herring and the chicken soup. And, in its bid for New Yorkers' affections, the Stage's piles of lean, juicy corned beef between two pieces of doughy rye bread give the sandwich and New York delis a good name. The pastrami, however, while ample and tasty, loses to Carnegie by a nose. |

Perino's Hellhound of Wall Street
For those looking for a good read over the holiday season, I recommend The Hellhound of Wall Street: How Ferdinand Pecora's Investigation of the Great Crash Forever Changed American Finance, by Michael Perino (St. Johns). Here is a brief description:
A gripping account of the underdog Senate lawyer who unmasked the financial wrongdoing that led to the Crash of 1929 and forever changed the relationship between Washington and Wall Street.
In The Hellhound of Wall Street, Michael Perino recounts in riveting detail the 1933 hearings that put Wall Street on trial for the Great Crash. Never before in American history had so many financial titans been called to account before the public, and they had come within a few weeks of emerging unscathed. By the time Ferdinand Pecora, a Sicilian immigrant and former New York prosecutor, took over as chief counsel, the investigation had dragged on ineffectively for nearly a year and was universally written off as dead.
The Hellhound of Wall Street provides a minute-by-minute account of the ten dramatic days when Pecora turned the hearings around, cross- examining the officers of National City Bank (today's Citigroup), particularly its chairman, Charles Mitchell, one of the best known bankers of his day. Mitchell strode into the hearing room in obvious disdain for the proceedings, but he left utterly disgraced. Pecora's rigorous questioning revealed that City Bank was guilty of shocking financial abuses, from selling worthless bonds to manipulating its stock price. Most offensive of all was the excessive compensation and bonuses awarded to its executives for peddling shoddy securities to the American public.
Pecora became an unlikely hero to a beleaguered nation. The man whom the press called "the hellhound of Wall Street" was the son of a struggling factory worker. Precocious and determined, he became one of New York's few Italian American lawyers at a time when Italians were frequently stereotyped as anarchic criminals. The image of an immigrant lawyer challenging a blue-blooded Wall Street tycoon was just one more sign that a fundamental shift was taking place in America.
By creating the sensational headlines needed to galvanize public opinion for reform, the Pecora hearings spurred Congress to take unprecedented steps to rein in the freewheeling banking industry and led directly to the New Deal's landmark economic reforms. A gripping courtroom drama with remarkable contemporary relevance, The Hellhound of Wall Street brings to life a crucial turning point in American financial history.
