FAHRENHEIT 451: The temperature at which book-paper catches fire and burns PART I: THE HEARTH AND THE SALAMANDER IT WAS A PLEASURE TO BURN. IT was a special pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed. With the brass nozzle in his fists, with this great python spitting its venomous kerosene upon the world, the blood pounded in his head, and his hands were the hands of some amazing conductor playing all the symphonies of blazing and burning to bring down the tatters and charcoal ruins of history. With his symbolic helmet numbered 451 on his stolid head, and his eyes all orange flame with the thought of what came next, he flicked the igniter and the house jumped up in a gorging fire that burned the evening sky red and yellow and black. He strode in a swarm of fireflies.

    Two Teens and a Budget It Pays to Belong !

    Two Teens and a Budget It Paysays to Belong ! Two Teens and a Budget CHAPTER 1 - ANGELA Liam always insists that the car wasn’t the last straw. But trust me, it was. At least that’s what finally made dad explode at Uncle Billy’s house. And dad, like ... never explodes. Especially at Uncle Billy. Uncle Billy is that really rich, old, great uncle that everybody wishes they could have. And we actually have him. Lucky us, except of course, there’s a catch. Uncle Billy is totally useless. Not that he’s useless. He’s, like, super successful and filthy rich, and if you ask (or don’t ask), he’s more than happy to tell you all about his first job and his second job and his third job and his first business and his second business and … you get the picture. To hear Uncle Billy tell it, he was working while he was still in diapers. Whatever. Like anybody cares. Because he doesn’t do what rich, lonely uncles are supposed to do - such as adopt and lavish me with all the good things in life. Okay, maybe he’s not that lonely. He’s got Aunt Rose to keep him company and listen to how wonderful he is. And truthfully, I wouldn’t be all that good at that. But still. I’d listen if I thought it was worth my while. Which it’s totally not. As he likes to point out, the only valuables I’ll ever be getting from his will are jewels of advice.

(0:00:28 – 0:06:44) Uel Smith: My name is Uel Smith. I boarded the Growler . about November the 1st, 1958. And, Growler was passing through Norfolk, Virginia, where I was stationed on a fast attack submarine. I was a cook striker, and I was getting ready for my third-class exam, but when the Growler pulled into Norfolk, it was tied up across from my ship. And should I tell you the story about . ? But anyway, so one of my buddies came in down to the boat and said, "You got to see this, come look at this. This is -- you'll never believe it, come look at . ." So I went up topside, went up through the hatch and looked over and there was the Growler, and it was the ugliest thing I ever seen, I thought, wow, what is that, and we was all laughing about it, you know, because we were used to speed and getting going, that one wasn’t going to go anyplace.

    Dave Cobb Episode Transcript

    VOICES IN THE HALL DAVE COBB EPISODE TRANSCRIPT PETER COOPER Welcome to Voices in the Hall, presented by the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. I’m Peter Cooper. Today’s guest, producer extraordinaire Dave Cobb. DAVE COBB When we approach these records we approach it much the way a record would’ve been done in 1965, 1970. And it’s humans playing together. There are mistakes all over the record. There’s timing issues, there’s tuning issues, there’s pitch issues, there’s flubs of words. The same way people are seeking out organically grown food, I think people are seeking out organically grown music at the same time. The moment I heard Chris Stapleton I was like, “Man I’ve got to track him down.” If I can just get to Nashville I’d run into him and I’d run into Jason Isbell and try to sucker them in to make records. I like to fly by the seat of my pants. Walk in and see what’s going to grab you that day. To me it was a really cool thing about linking really great artists that I like now, and linking Nashville, what Nashville is today. Taking kind of a snapshot of it. And I love it when I get to introduce somebody to somebody else I think is talented. And you see there eyes both sparkle. And I love the unity in the scene. That’s why I moved here. PETER COOPER It’s Voices in the Hall, with Dave Cobb. “4th of July” - Shooter Jennings (Black Magick / Universal South) PETER COOPER “Fourth of July,” from Shooter Jennings.

    Balancing Act Living with Fire in the Applegate

    Balancing Act Living with Fire in the Applegate Applegate Communities’ Collaborative Fire Protection Strategy Coordinated by the Applegate Partnership Sandy Shaffer and Jack Shipley, Project Coordinators Diana Coogle, Editor Applegate, Oregon August 2002 About the Applegate Communities' Collaborative Fire Protection Strategy a.k.a. THE APPLEGATE FIRE PLAN The Applegate Fire Plan is a collaborative effort, hatched from an idea that was developed jointly by local citizens and federal agency folks in the Spring of 2001. Due to wide-spread participation throughout the Applegate Valley, general project coordination was organized by the Applegate Partnership, a non-profit community- based group founded in 1992. Initial funding for this project was awarded via the National Fire Plan to the Applegate Partnership in October, 2001. This written plan is the result. The Mission of the Applegate Partnership The Applegate Partnership is a community-based, non- profit organization involving industry, conservation groups, natural resource agencies, and residents cooperating to encourage and facilitate the use of natural resource princi- ples that promote ecosystem health and diversity. Through community involvement and education, this partnership supports management of all land within the watershed in a manner that sustains natural resources and that will, in turn, contribute to economic and community well-being and resilience. The logo for the Applegate Fire Plan was designed by Greeley Wells. Applegate Fire Plan - 3 List of Partners The following local,
