  • Mr. President: Confessions of the Father of the Neutron Bomb 3Rd Edition Featuring a New Overview and Postscript Chapter, “The Profits of Fear” by Charles Platt
    F*** You! Mr. President: Confessions of the Father of the Neutron Bomb 3rd Edition Featuring a New Overview and Postscript Chapter, “The Profits of Fear” by Charles Platt Sam Cohen 2 Confessions of the Father of the Neutron Bomb © 1996-2006 by Sam Cohen, Los Angeles; All rights reserved for all media. A copy of this book may be found at: http://www.AthenaLab.com/Confessions_Sam_Cohen_2006_Third_Edition.pdf This third edition of Sam Cohen’s memoirs (with Sam’s requested change of title, and Charles Platt’s new chapter) supersedes the previously released second edition. Among other changes, the second edition had all the previously deleted expletives restored, and had many typographical corrections. The old first (printed) edition of “Shame” is obsolete. By the way, I want to be on record for urging Sam to consider a more moderate change of title. Note about major Adobe Acrobat PDF bug: Despite having purchased Acrobat specifically for the purpose of accurately converting MS Word documents, it still alters the layout and thus messes up the page numbering for the Index (even with accessibility-related reflow explicitly turned off, among a variety of other attempted workarounds). Their advertising seems quite deceptive for failing to mention thus very important deficiency. You can still make interpolation-guesses since the errors are approximately proportional to how far into the book the references are, or do searches in copies of the PDF file.

  • February 27, 2019 Kevin Morby Announces New Album, Oh My God
    February 27, 2019 For Immediate Release KEVIN MORBY ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM, OH MY GOD, OUT APRIL 26 ON DEAD OCEANS WATCH THE VIDEO FOR "NO HALO"; NORTH AMERICAN TOUR BEGINS IN MAY WATCH THE VIDEO FOR "NO HALO" https://youtu.be/sBv6sMenaV0 LISTEN TO "NO HALO"/PRE-ORDER OH MY GOD https://kevinmorby.ffm.to/ohmygod With his four acclaimed solo albums and myriad records of various collaboration, Kevin Morby has become a true musical auteur. Each record possesses its own unique persona and explores intriguing themes and fertile terrain through shifting, focused textures and dexterous, dedicated skill. And now, with the lavish, resplendent, career-best double LP Oh My God (out April 26th via Dead Oceans), Morby delivers a grandiose director’s cut of his biggest statement to date, epic in scope as well as sound. Additionally, today Kevin shares the video for the album's first single, "No Halo," directed by Chris Good. Throughout his past work, Morby has noticed the ubiquity of an apparent religious theme. Though not identifying as “religious” in the slightest, Morby recognizes in himself a somewhat spiritual being with a secular attitude towards the soulful. And so, in an effort to tackle that notion head-on and once-and-for-all, he sat down in his form of church—on planes and in beds—and wrote what would become his first true concept- album. If Singing Saw was Kevin's LA record, and City Music was his ode to New York City, then Oh My God lives in the sky, above the weather, both nowhere and everywhere at once.

  • DUTCHESS DIRT PAYS a VISIT to ENGLISH GARDENERS CAROLA and NICHOLAS WARREN by Sue Grumet, Master Gardener Volunteer
    DDuuttcchheessss DDiirrtt A gardening newsletter from: Issue #57, April 2012 THROUGH THE HEDGEROW: DUTCHESS DIRT PAYS A VISIT TO ENGLISH GARDENERS CAROLA AND NICHOLAS WARREN By Sue Grumet, Master Gardener Volunteer Guest Bio: Carola and Nicholas garden on 12 lovely acres in Milan, New York. They very generously agreed to share with our readers the trials, tribulations, and successes that they have experienced while gardening in Northern Dutchess County. DD: Please tell us how you came to garden in Northern Dutchess County? CW: We arrived at our Dutchess County garden in 1986 from two different directions. We are both English. Nicholas an avid NYC apartment plant lover and I, the product of a family of English Nurserymen. While I adore flowers, my only experience of gardening was limited to weeding the gravel on the drive of my parents house near Winchester in England. Nicholas, on the other hand, knew all about potting soil and fertilizing and light watering. DD: How did you begin to create your beautiful gardens? CW: Our first few years were occupied with trial and error gardening- learning the contours of the land we now occupied, the seasons, the rainfall, the animals and insects with whom we now lived and the “devastating” effect of hard winters on plants that seemed to thrive in the long wet hot summers. Each season we brought in barrel loads of topsoil and manure and fertilized until now the main beds can be dug easily down two feet. In the early years we lost about one third of the plants we added the previous summer because they were either too small or not hardy enough for our marginal Zone 5 garden which in fact because of its exposed position is closer to a Zone 4.

A community in the Piedmont of North Carolina rises in outrage as a county initiative draws students from the largely Black east side of town into predominantly white high schools on the west.

On one side of the integration debate is Jade, Gee's steely, ambitious mother. In the aftermath of a harrowing loss, she is determined to give her son the tools he'll need to survive in America as a sensitive, anxious, Grand Central Publishing young Black man.

    The Centenary History Congregation Beth Israel of Houston, Texas |854~|954 by ANNE NATHAN COHEN J HCU .~“z‘c:A.:gt1. ;_.;; §,;1j§~€ARY RDLSELESBHS CLA J\/ ROl52l65335 iclay “Let us congratulate the first congregation of Texas . “Let us hear often from the new society all that is good and pleasant.” ——TheOccident, Philadelphia, Pa., March 16, 1860 H DEDICATION The lives of countless devoted men and women have enriched the history of Beth Israel during its first 100 years. For them, some living, others whose memory we bless, we are eternally grateful. None made such noteworthy contribution to the’ spiritual or material development of our congregation as did Dr. Henry Barnston. Nor has any exceeded either his gifts toward the cultural enhancement of the whole com­ munity or his example of brotherhood and mutual appre­ ciation among men and women of all faiths. Through the half century span of January, 1900, to December, 1949, as Rabbi and as Rabbi Emeritus, Henry Barnston dedicated his whole being to this his congrega­ tion. His great intellectual capacity, coupled with his strong religious conviction, inspired his constantly growing flock. Three Temples were built under his spiritual leader­ ship to accommodate those whom he led in their increasing devotion to Judaism. His love for Beth Israel was matched only by our love for him. Gratefully do we dedicate this Centenary History of Congregation Beth Israel to the memory of our beloved departed Rabbi Emeritus, DR. HENRY BARNSTON. MAURICE N. DANNENBAUM, General Chairman of Centennial. FOREWORD The Centenary History of Congregation Beth Israel has been written within the frame—work of the Minute Books, dating from August 4, 1861, until the present time.

  • Alt-Nation: Celebrating the Season with Music
    Alt-Nation: Celebrating the Season with Music Spirit of ‘77 Photography Exhibit This winter, Pop Emporium Providence will be hosting a photography exhibit called Out of Control: The Spirit of 77, which showcases work capturing the essence of the punk movement. To make the whole thing extra-special, Pop owner Darren Hill is throwing a few pretty epic shows. The first is X’s John Doe. After fronting the iconic L.A. punk band, Doe has reinvented himself in recent years in the roots/alt-country vein with positive results. The other is Paul D. Hudson, better known as Bad Brains’ H.R. (Human Rights), known equally for rapid-fire hardcore squealing and crooning reggae vocals. The photos are the work of RI-born (and Motif contributor) Richard McCaffrey and f-stop Fitzgerald, both based in the San Francisco area in the late ’70s. Photos are a big part of the mythology of rock ‘n’ roll, and the people behind the camera have a role in its legacy. I talked to Richard about his career and experiencing the era firsthand. Jake Bissaro (Motif): What were you interested in first: photography or music? Richard McCaffrey: I suppose both were interests of mine going back to childhood. The interest in combining them didn’t start until I was 25 or so, when I started an alternative newspaper called The Point here in Rhode Island. JB: Why the move to San Fran? RM: The Point didn’t quite make it, and doing it had given me the bug for music photography. I said, “Why not just move to where Rolling Stone is?” and went out there with the intention of becoming a rock photographer.
