I don't recall the last time I actually watched this production. The scenes are generally very familiar so I know I have seen it and I would guess I have seen it at least one time but probably more than one time about eight to fifteen years ago.

Bill Foster: Hey. Why are you putting barbed wire on that fence? Is this how you rich people amuse yourselves? You put barbed wire on the fence so innocent people like me can hurt themselves looking in?

Falling Down (1993)
Is this how rich people have fun?
You put barbed wire on the fence...
...so innocent people like me
can cut our hands?
No, please. I'm the caretaker.
It's just a barbecue.
Dr. Ashcroft has let us do this before.
You don't live here?
Is it really necessary to tell them?
Tell who?
Altmore Security.
Aren't you with them?
No, please!
It's okay, honey.
It's okay, baby.
What kind of doctor lives here?
Plastic surgeon.
Plastic surgery bought all this?
FOSTER:
Guess I'm in the wrong racket.
Are there correspondence courses
in plastic surgery?
I lost my job.
Actually, I didn't lose it.
It lost me.
I'm overeducated, underskilled...
Maybe it's the other way around.
I forget.
And I'm obsolete.
I'm not economically viable.
I can't even support my own kid.
Are you hurt? I'm sorry.
I didn't hurt you, honey.
I'm sorry.
MAN:
It's all right.
It's your hand.
You cut your hand.
It's my hand.
-Please take me with you.
-No!
They won't do anything
if I'm with you.
Just please let them go.
What do you think?
You think I want to hurt your family?
I have a family of my own.
You don't believe me?
We believe you.
That's where I'm going.
I'm going home to see my family.
It's my little girl's birthday today.
We were gonna have a barbecue,
like you guys...
...and she was gonna play outside...
...and my wife would hold my hand...
...and talk about grownup things.
And then when it got dark...
...we'd all go to sleep together.
We'd all sleep together in the dark.
And everything...
...would be just like it was before.

DON HENLEY
"The End Of The Innocence"
Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly
But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence
O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie
But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence
Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Quotes
Bill Foster: I've passed the point of no return. Do you know what that is, Beth? That's the point in a journey where it's longer to go back to the beginning. It's like when those astronauts got in trouble. I don't know, somebody messed up, and they had to get them back to Earth. But they had passed the point of no return. They were on the other side of the moon and were out of contact for like hours. Everybody waited to see if a bunch of dead guys in a can would pop out the other side. Well, that's me. I'm on the other side of the moon now and everybody is going to have to wait until I pop out.
Beth: The police are here.

Bike shop owner discovers he's father of Amazon founder
Alistair Barr, USA TODAY 10:56 p.m. EDT October 10, 2013
SAN FRANCISCO — Ted Jorgensen, a 69-year-old bike shop owner in Arizona, is the biological father of Amazon.com founder and CEO Jeff Bezos, but Jorgensen never knew until he was told late last year by the author of a new book about the Internet billionaire.
"I didn't know where he was, if he had a good job or not, or if he was alive or dead," Jorgensen told Brad Stone, a Bloomberg Businessweek reporter and author of The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon, which will be published later this month.
When shown photos of Bezos, Jorgensen's eyes filled with sorrow and disbelief, according to an excerpt of the book released Thursday.
"I wasn't a good father or a good husband," said Jorgensen

To Astronauts Conrad, Kerwin, and Weitz:
The successful completion of the first mission of Skylab is a source of intense pride for the American people. You have demonstrated that just as man can conquer the elements of Earth, he can cope with the exigencies of space. You have given conclusive evidence that, even with the most advanced scientific and technological support in the world, the courage and resourcefulness of good men are still central to the success of the human adventure.
On behalf of the American people, I welcome you home from the Skylab spaceship to spaceship Earth. I also look forward to seeing you at San Clemente on Sunday.

SP-401 Skylab, Classroom in Space
Plant Growth and Plant Phototropism
Two similar proposals were submitted by Donald W. Schlack of Downey High School, Downey, Calif., and Joel G. Wordekemper of Central Catholic High School, West Point, Nebr. Wordekemper was interested in discovering how the roots and stems of germinating seedlings would orient themselves without the influence of gravity in Skylab. Schlack's idea was to germinate seedlings within an enclosed cell of agar, exposed to light from only one side to determine if phototropism would influence the direction of growth of both stems and roots in the absence of gravity. He also suggested that exposing different seedlings to various light intensities would determine the illumination level required to produce the phototropic effect. The objectives of these two experiments were similar enough that they could be accommodated in a common experiment.

Banquet Speech
Hans Krebs' speech at the Nobel Banquet in Stockholm, December 10, 1953
Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Ladies and Gentlemen,
When I reflected on what I might say on this great occasion many thoughts and feelings came to my mind, but I do not find it easy to express them adequately. So I must ask your forgiveness if I fail to do justice to the occasion.
Foremost there is the deep sense of gratitude and pleasure for having been found worthy of this high distinction by the Caroline Institute. I am also anxious to offer my sincere thanks to the Nobel Foundation, and in fact to all Sweden, for the warmth and friendliness of your welcome, and the generosity and considerateness of your hospitality which you have extended also to my wife and three children. There have been many occasions in these last few days when we felt deeply moved.
The research I have been doing - studying how foodstuffs yield energy in living cells - does not lead to the kind of knowledge that can be expected to give immediate practical benefits to mankind. If I have chosen this field of study, it was because I believed in its importance in spite of its theoretical character. My reason for this belief was that all living things must be continuously fed with energy and I am convinced that an understanding of the process of energy production

For Immediate Release April 25, 2013
Remarks by President Obama at Dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library
Bush Presidential Center
Dallas, Texas
10:42 A.M. CDT
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you so much. (Applause.) Thank you. Please be seated. To President Bush and Mrs. Bush; to President Clinton and now-former Secretary Clinton; to President George H.W. Bush and Mrs. Bush; to President and Mrs. Carter; to current and former world leaders and all the distinguished guests here today -- Michelle and I are honored to be with you to mark this historic occasion.
This is a Texas-sized party. And that’s worthy of what we’re here to do today: honor the life and legacy of the 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush.
When all the living former Presidents are together, it’s also a special day for our democracy. We’ve been called “the world’s most exclusive club” -- and we do have a pretty nice clubhouse. But the truth is, our club is more like a support group. The last time we all got together was just before I took office. And I needed that. Because as each of these leaders will tell you, no matter how much you may think you’re ready to assume the office of the presidency, it’s impossible to truly understand the nature of the job until it’s yours, until you’re sitting at that desk.
And that’s why every President gains a greater appreciation for all those who served before him; for the leaders from both parties who have taken on the momentous challenges and felt the enormous weight of a nation on their shoulders. And for me, that appreciation very much extends to President Bush.
The first thing I found in that desk the day I took office was a letter from George, and one that demonstrated his compassion and generosity. For he knew that I would come to learn what he had learned -- that being President, above all, is a humbling job. There are moments where you make mistakes. There are times where you wish you could turn back the clock. And what I know is true about President Bush, and I hope my successor will say about me, is that we love this country and we do our best.
Now, in the past, President Bush has said it’s impossible to pass judgment on his presidency while he’s still alive. So maybe this is a little bit premature. But even now, there are certain things that we know for certain.
We know about the son who was raised by two strong, loving parents in Midland, famously inheriting, as he says, “my daddy’s eyes and my mother’s mouth.” (Laughter.)

AHA! The deck plating in Missile Plot. That has got to be it, something about the deck plating.
http://spaceflight1.nasa.gov/shuttle/reference/sodb/2-4d.pdf
So if I am reading that schematic correctly, the area above and outside of the landing gear is one of the places where you could enter the shuttle, aside from the regular entrances, so denoted for emergency entry I guess.
I'm not sure what that means. But if that is what it means, then you would actually be able to enter the compartment with the landing gear in it from inside the shuttle. And my memories of pulling up the deck tiles in Missile Plot on Wainwright must be something relevant.
There was that comment Scotty made about the Enterprise deck plates, I think in that TNG episode where he is rescued from transporter limbo.
Yeah, that's what they are calling them:

"the hungry beach." That's where I got that. When did I say that about the waves on Alki Beach? Last year? This is probably something that is in the memory of Thomas Ray, but Kerry Burgess doesn't remember studying it. I remember studying Shakespeare, but not this one.

As soon as I read this paragraph, and envisioned the gear cycling up as described, I remember that connector I wrote about on the Taylor, the one that I made from the cable in the deck to the one from the helicopter hovering over my head. I wrote a while back that I was the first one to perform that exercise on the Taylor. It was tricky because we never got to practice it before the actually event.
http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/shuttle/reference/shutref/orbiter/lgear/overview.html
For retraction, each gear is hydraulically rotated forward and up during ground operations until it engages an uplock hook for each gear in its respective wheel well. The uplock hook locks onto a roller on each strut. Mechanical linkage driven by each landing gear mechanically closes the respective landing gear doors. All three landing gear doors have high-temperature reusable surface insulation thermal protection system tiles bonded to their outer surface with thermal barriers to protect and prevent the landing gear and wheel well from the high-temperature thermal loads encountered during the shuttle's entry into the atmosphere.
This part suggests that, if I did do something to get the gear down, I had very little time to get the job done.
http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/shuttle/reference/shutref/orbiter/lgear/overview.html
The landing gears are deployed only after the spacecraft has an indicated airspeed of less than 300 knots (345 mph) and an altitude of approximately 250 feet.

I wanted to write about something else a few days ago that I forget to mention that seems relevant. I was writing about the time, which seems associated with STS-1, when the toilet backed up in that house on De Quincy. It had overflowed onto the floor and all the tiles on the bathroom floor started coming unglued and after a short period, were completely attached. I remember, for some reason, that mom laughed about how I fixed it. I started nailing down the tiles until I ran out of nails. She thought that was funny and I wondered why. I thought it was a good idea. She said she was going to get the landlord to fix them. I started thinking yesterday that I am remembering something about the heat shield tiles on the shuttle but I'm not sure what this memory actually represents. If I'm not mistaken, the shuttle tiles are glued, just as those bathroom floor tiles were supposed to be. Maybe I remembering some kind of suggestion I made to bolt down the missing tiles as we prepared to return to Earth in 1981.
And I must not have been badly hurt after that supposed fall from the landing shuttle because I apparently was flying over Baghdad only a couple months later.

In the theme of falling out of the shuttle, there is that scene in "First Contact" where Data jumps down several stories to where Lilly is shooting at them.
This could be about that theory I wrote about earlier. There is that failed launch of my F-14 Tomcat that left me hanging by my parachute from the superstructure of the aircraft carrier. In my artificial and symbolic memory, I was sitting on a topside deck on the superstructure under the fire-control radar of the Taylor and I was reading a book and the Captain and some other crew were running up or at least, they seemed to be in a hurry and I wondered what the commotion was about. They saw me sitting there reading a book and that seemed to be why they were there. The reality is probably that I almost got cooked by the aircraft carriers radar and this artificial memory could be of that event. It always reminds me of something vague, real or artificial, that I never can remember.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: July 31, 2006
I started thinking again about that time on the Wainwright when I was topside up on the superstructure helping Larry Johnson work on one of his WDS antennas. I pulled off the fiberglass, canopy-shaped cover, and it almost pulled me over the side when the wind caught it. I wonder if that represents falling out of the shuttle as the WDS contained a lot of parts that remind me of the heat tiles on the shuttle.

ON a recent morning, royal courtiers, brows furrowed, escorted a reporter to the top of Buckingham Palace to point out some troubling disrepair: cracks scarring part of the palace’s yellow, chalky facade, where a shoebox-sized chunk of stone had toppled from the roof, narrowly missing Princess Anne’s car, and myriad tiles needing replacement. Alas, the House of Windsor, just like any other family down the street, is also struggling with a leaky roof.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ATP synthase (EC 3.6.3.14) is an important enzyme that provides energy for the cell to use through the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the most commonly used "energy currency" of cells from most organisms. It is formed from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi), and needs energy.

George McElroy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Captain George Edward Henry McElroy MC and Two Bars, DFC and Bar (b. 14 May 1893 — d. 31 July 1918) was a leading ace fighter pilot of the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force during World War I. He was credited with 47 aerial victories.
Death in action
McElroy's continued apparent disregard for his own safety when flying and fighting could have only one end. On the 31st, he reported destroying a Hannover C for his 47th victory. He then set out again. He failed to return from this flight and was posted missing. Later it was learned that McElroy had been killed by ground fire. He was 25 years old.
McElroy would receive the Distinguished Flying Cross posthumously on 3 August, citing his shooting down 35 aeroplanes and three observation balloons. The Bar would arrive still later, on 21 September, and would laud his low-level attacks. In summary, McElroy shot down four enemy planes in flames and destroyed 23 others, one of which he shared destroyed with other pilots. He drove down 16 enemy craft "out of control" and out of the fight; in one of those cases, it was a shared success. He also destroyed three balloons.

Much of the suspense ended a week ago, when Microsoft acknowledged that the Origami project involved small detachable executive penis'.
"To be honest, we were quite surprised at the level of interest and buzz that was generated from this," Krammer said, speaking for women. "We ended up essentially laughing the whole time driving home."

The spotlight was already on me in 1999 just because Microsoft needed a better as it was. And George W. Bush’s desire to develop his own manly image only strengthen the spotlight because Microsoft wanted him, and his Republican connections, as an ally in the government. So that would have been going on in 2000. But the antitrust ruling was in 2000 as well, but importantly on June 7th, and while it was the right thing for Jackson to do, it gave Microsoft a reason to bug my apartment at Limestone. They probably had my Verona apartment bugged too. Although I don’t think there is any ‘probably’ to that; rather it is a certainty. They were tracking me well before I lived there. I don’t think it is a coincidence that my next door neighborhood at Verona worked at Microsoft too. I am certain they transferred her and her family out of state, to Florida, to keep them from being investigated by Washington State investigators.

Before Verona, I was living at Oakwood. I lived at Verona in 1999 and possibility the first month or two of 2000, although I’m not sure about 2000. I know that I lived at Verona the summer of 2000 and moved out in November 2000

After that, I stayed for a while at a place called Pacific Inn. One day, when I was a TAM, I caught a clue that Grace Stahre knew I had lived there. I remember that I wasn’t living there at the time, having moved to the next place. Pacific Place is situated at the corner of NE 3rd Street and 112th Ave NE in Bellevue.
I moved from there to Oakwood Apartments in Bellevue. The building is situated next to the roads 110th Ave NE, NE 10th Street, and NE 9th Street.
Then I moved to Verona, which is situated on NE 11th Street, 112th Ave NE, and NE 12th Street.

Well, this makes no sense. I wrote a while back, and still believed until today, that I picked up that songs "Clocks" around the time I watched Patrick Stewart's "Safe House" on Showtime when I lived at Verona. I can't remember precisely when I watched it, but I moved into Limestone in November 2000, so it was most likely during the year 2000. I can still visualize watching Showtime in that Verona apartment and hearing the music to that song.

ON THIS DAY 28 January
1982: US general rescued from Red Brigade
Italian police have rescued US Brigadier General James Dozier without firing a single shot after storming a flat in Padua where he was being held by Red Brigade guerrillas.
The 50-year-old general and deputy Chief of Staff at Nato's Southern European land forces headquarters at Verona, emerged after 42 days in captivity unharmed, but thinner and with a beard.
Police had been watching the flat in Padua for three days. The decision was taken to go in this morning at 1136 local time.
A squad of specially-trained officers broke down the door of the five-room apartment and confronted the five terrorists, including a woman, who surrendered immediately.
Posing as plumbers
The general was gagged, barefoot and wearing a tracksuit. He was inside a tent. One of the terrorists, who was standing pointing a gun at the general's head, was quickly overpowered.
The general's first words are reported to have been: "Thanks, thanks, marvellous, ok, police."
He was allowed to telephone his wife, who is in West Germany and the US Ambassador in Rome before being taken to an American military base near Verona.
His Red Brigade kidnappers are said to include the Venice leader, Antonio Savasta, and his partner, Emilia Libera. A third suspect was identified as Cesare Leonardo. The other two remain unidentified.
The left-wing Red Brigade was set up in the 1970s following the failure of the New Left government.
It has sought to highlight its cause by kidnapping and murdering prominent Italian politicians and other senior figures, including former prime minister Aldo Moro in 1978.
Courageous soldier
Police seized a number of guns, hand grenades, explosives and ammunition from the flat.
The general's wife, Judith, and 24-year-old daughter Cheryl, are being flown from West Germany to be reunited with him.
US President Ronald Reagan has hailed the general as a "courageous soldier whose life has been dedicated to the defence of liberty" and said his rescue was "a happy ending, the prayers of millions of Americans have been answered."
The general was captured in December. Members of the Red Brigade posing as plumbers called at his flat on the sixth floor of an apartment block in Verona.
He tried to fight off the intruders, but was hit on the head with a pistol and forced into a trunk, which was loaded into the boot of a car.
He was the first foreigner to be captured by the Red Brigade. There were rumours a ransom had been demanded of up to £4.5m.
In Context
A week later Brigadier General James Dozier was flown back to the United States, where he received a hero's welcome.
At his first news conference after his release, General Dozier admitted he had been warned about the possibility of a kidnap attempt but he had been "too busy" to take any notice of the threats.
During his captivitiy he described how he had been chained by his left foot and right hand to the central pole of a small tent, within the flat in Padua. He said his captors treated him with "businesslike indifference" but they kept their faces covered so he could not identify them.

General kidnapped in 1981 holds emotional reunion with liberators
ROME BY PHILIP PULLELLA
(Reuters) - For 42 days three decades ago, U.S. General James Lee Dozier was the world's most famous hostage and his captors, the Red Brigades, were Europe's most feared and bloody terrorist organization.
Dozier, now 80, has come back to Italy, perhaps for the last time, to meet the members of the police special operations unit who liberated him in one of the most daring rescue raids of those dramatic years in Italian history.
"If it weren't for guys like these I wouldn't be here," he told Reuters last Saturday at an emotional 30-year reunion with the 13-man SWAT team that saved him on the cold but clear morning of January 28, 1982.
Thirty years on, the members of the once svelte and swift squad that saved him have lost some of their hair, put on weight and become grandfathers. But no one can forget.
Say Dozier's name to any Italian old enough to remember and they will tell you it brings back dark memories of the country's "Years of Lead," when the ultra-leftist Red Brigades kidnapped, maimed and killed politicians and business leaders as part of their war against the state.
Dozier, then NATO's deputy chief of staff for land forces for Southern Europe and based in Verona, was the biggest fish the Red Brigades nabbed after former Prime Minister Aldo Moro, who they held for 55 days in 1978 before killing him.
Dozier knows he was probably destined to meet Moro's fate had it not been for the raid led by Major Edoardo Perna on an apartment in the northern city of Padua where five Red Brigades guerrillas had held Dozier prisoner in a tent.
"This is something that I live with almost perpetually. But in a way it's cathartic," Dozier said. "You know, you keep thinking about it and I'm told by psychologists that is one of the best medicines - keep thinking about it and don't worry about it."
Dozier was kidnapped in his apartment in Verona on December 17, 1981 by four Red Brigades' guerrillas masquerading as plumbers. One held a gun to his wife's head to convince him not to resist.
The period was one of the most tense of the Cold War. At the time, NATO was making plans to deploy nuclear Pershing II and Cruise missiles in Western Europe, including in Sicily, to counter the threat of Soviet SS-20 missiles aimed at Europe.
His kidnapping stunned the Pentagon and sent shivers throughout Western European governments.
"Quite frankly, I had no indication that I was a target. All the intelligence I received at the time -- and I thought I had pretty good intelligence -- gave me no indication that I was a target for the Red Brigades," he said.
PRISONER IN A TENT
From Verona, the Brigades drove Dozier to a safe house in Padua in the same northern region.
They kept him in a tent inside one of the rooms and forced him to listen to loud music through headphones, resulting in permanent hearing damage. For 42 days they interrogated him about NATO operations and occasionally sent flyers with his picture behind their trademark five-pointed star to newspapers.
At 11:25 on the morning of Jan 28, 1982, Perna and 12 other men launched the daring operation. Six men secured the perimeter while Perna and six others stormed the apartment where five Brigades members, including two women, were holding Dozier.
"After we knocked down the door I immobilized one of the women and used her as a shield to move forward. One of my men rushed into the tent where Dozier was being held and hit the terrorist guarding Dozier on the head with the butt of his pistol," Perna said. "There was some blood but not a shot was fired."
Inside the tent, Dozier recalled, he was confused and, for a moment, feared the worst.
"I did not know what was happening. I had read accounts of the Aldo Moro kidnapping and about the factions within the Red Brigades and my first thoughts were that I may be caught up in a jurisdictional dispute among factions of the Red Brigades," he said.
"They (the police) pushed their way into my part of the tent and I tried to push them back out because I wasn't sure who they were. But then it dawned on me that these probably were policemen ... and one of them removed his ski mask."
Perna and his team arrested Dozier's captors, led by Antonio Savasta, who later gave evidence. Savasta was also involved in the Moro kidnapping and killing three years earlier.
At a trial in Verona in March, 1982, Dozier stared down Savasta and the other guerrillas who kidnapped him for the last time. Savasta was sentenced to 16 years and six months in prison. He was freed after serving 10 years.
Asked how he felt about his captor walking free now, Dozier said: "If he has been sufficiently punished in the eyes of the Italian government that's fine with me."
That was the last time General James Lee Dozier saw his captors. Now retired, he lives in Florida and works with the U.S. Air Force, teaching a course on hostage avoidance and survival.

Microsoft Unveils Redesigned WindowsMedia.com With Powerful New Features and Content
Posted May 2, 2000 By
REDMOND, Wash., May 2, 2000 — Microsoft Corp. today announced a dramatic upgrade to WindowsMedia.com, the Internet’s most popular audio and video guide*, now offering unmatched search and navigation capabilities, integrated access to artist and album information from Alliance Entertainment Corp.’s All Music Guide, and one of the Web’s largest directories of downloadable music from major and independent labels. WindowsMedia.com’s new features make it easier than ever for mainstream consumers to find and enjoy music, movies and more in the high-quality Windows Media TM Format.
To celebrate this milestone, Microsoft today kicked off the
“Week of WindowsMedia.com,”
running now through May 8. This series of promotions will feature exclusive content from such top-tier artists as Christina Aguilera, Phish and Madonna, live-concert video downloads from House of Blues, movie trailers from the Cannes Film Festival and never-before-released footage from popular movies. Special features will be showcased each day at http://windowsmedia.com/ .
WindowsMedia.com also will host a monthlong portable music device giveaway.** Every day through May 31, WindowsMedia.com will give away three portable music devices. Eight first-prize winners will receive a Hewlett-Packard Jornada Pocket PC, and the grand-prize winner will receive a free trip to and VIP treatment for two at a House of Blues concert in Los Angeles. Registration is free; details are available at http://windowsmedia.com/ .
“The incredible growth in audience and content at WindowsMedia.com presented an opportunity for us to transform the online digital media experience,”

All Music Guide Integration
WindowsMedia.com is the only audio and video guide to incorporate the rich information on more than 400,000 albums from All Music Guide. Searching an artist’s name returns artwork, a biography, a discography with individually rated albums and a listing of similar artists. Following a link from an artist’s main page to a particular album in the discography returns album art, album details, a track listing and the All Music Guide album review. Integrated with the All Music Guide information is a listing of all the songs and videos currently available from that artist via WindowsMedia.com.
Massive Music Download Directory
WindowsMedia.com is creating one of the Internet’s largest directories of downloadable music from major and independent labels, with more than 60,000 tracks available immediately and 40,000 to be added within weeks.

New Features Deliver the Best Experience
Changes at WindowsMedia.com go far beyond its new look. Like the Windows Media Player 7, released to consumers today in beta form, the new WindowsMedia.com was designed to make digital media accessible to mainstream audiences. The site was entirely rebuilt to handle the explosive growth in visitors as well as the massive amount of content available in the Windows Media Format, especially in such popular categories as music downloads and radio. Key features of WindowsMedia.com include the following:

He gets shot just as he opens and walks through the door.
I was trying to remember if I had ever before heard of the 1999 film "10 Things I Hate About You." The title is vaguely familiar, meaning I probably recall the advertisements for it when it premiered in the theatres or some other advertisements for it later. I have no idea what it is about, other than more hate crime activity directed at my person and my private property.
I started looked at it a short while ago because I had actually started wondering again when Kerry Park was established in Seattle. After reading about it from 1927 I then read that the racketeering production the 1999 film "10 Things I Hate About You" has an opening scene in Kerry Park, which is in the Queen Anne neighborhood which is a high hill overlooking downtown Seattle. Queen Anne hill also has those three large television towers on it.
Then I noticed that the starring characters in the racketeering production the 1999 film "10 Things I Hate About You"appear to be the actors Heath Ledger as "Patrick Verona" and Julia Stiles.
The funny part is that by the summer of the year 2000 I was living in an apartment building named Verona. I had no conscious idea about that association until the past hour or so. So you know that I have been driving them absolute ape-shit since then by doing things like that.

When I was sitting there in that bar in our office in historic Bellevue, Washington, in 1999, I told her I drove around in my blue Mazda RX-7 and solved crimes. Suzanne Morgan then looked across the table at Thomas Dawkins and asked him "What did he say?" and Thomas repeated what I had said. Later that evening, from my apartment at Oakwood, I wrote an email to Suzanne and commented that all the cigarette smoke in that bar had caused my face to turn red.

General who was held hostage now an example of how to survive
By Nancy Montgomery
Stars and Stripes
Published: August 5, 2005
In U.S. military anti-terrorism training currently under way, the American general kidnapped by Italy’s Red Brigades and held captive for six weeks is used as an example both of what to do and what not to do.
He was an exemplary hostage, who “maintained his composure and survived…,” according to the anti-terrorism training materials.
Yet Brig. Gen. James Dozier had been studied for a month by the leftist group before his kidnapping in December 1981. The terrorists considered kidnapping three other U.S. generals but “chose Dozier because his personal security was less rigorous,” the training materials say.
Dozier, now 76, a retired major general and a resident of Fort Myers, Fla., is OK with that.
“I’ve continued to be involved in the dynamics of international terrorism,” he said in a phone interview Wednesday. “I teach hostage avoidance, and hostage survival, if you screw it up like I did.”
Dozier says he erred, along with others, in taking the threat of terrorism too lightly — especially when, as he says, the Red Brigades announced each fall a season of terrorist activity, with the aim of destabilizing the government.
Generals in Naples and Vicenza, Italy, were better protected, he said, living on base or with a security detail. But Dozier, then a brigadier general working for NATO, lived with his wife, Judy, in a penthouse apartment in Verona and had only an armed driver as security.
“Verona had been a backwater for years. ... We didn’t think we were threatened,” Dozier said.
“We were wrong, but we just didn’t take the threat seriously.”
Dozier’s kidnappers, after previously appearing at his door selling soap and reading the water meter — “indicators,” in retrospect, he said — got into the apartment by posing as plumbers. Dozier let them in, and “things went downhill from there,” Dozier said.
Dozier was trucked to an apartment in Padua. His captors made him wear headphones with music playing 24 hours a day. But they weren’t especially vicious, he said.
“They first started out with hard-rock tapes. It was awful,” he said. “I’d argue with the guards, and they’d turn the volume down. Finally, they changed to Gershwin tapes. At least the music was better.”
He and his captors didn’t talk much, he said, but he worked to make them see him as a human being, not just some military-political symbol — something he recommends when he gives talks such as the one he gave in Stuttgart last year for the U.S. Air Force’s Joint Special Operations University.
“There were two things I did: I was continuously asking about my wife; pretty soon they started bringing me news clippings about what she was doing,” Dozier said. “The other thing I did was to make myself a more reliable prisoner.” That meant he made himself predictable so his captors saw him as less threatening.
Dozier didn’t worry too much about being killed because usually the Red Brigades released its captives.
“It’s just like combat,” he said. “You do the best you can, rather than worrying about what’s going to happen.”
After he was freed in a raid carried out by Italy’s caribinieri police, Dozier said, he met with Gen. Frederick Kroesen, U.S. Army Europe commander who himself survived an assassination attempt in Heidelberg, to discuss security.
“The generals were running around carrying machine guns in their cars,” Dozier said. Kroesen was concerned that might lead to trouble.
“We decided it was better to rely on our security details than be John Wayne ourselves,” Dozier said.

Warren Minor Christopher
United States statesman
Warren Minor Christopher, (born Oct. 27, 1925, Scranton, N.D.—died March 18, 2011, Los Angeles, Calif.), American public official who helped formulate U.S. foreign policy as deputy secretary of state (1977–81) during Pres. Jimmy Carter’s administration and secretary of state (1993–97) in Pres. Bill Clinton’s cabinet. During his time with the Department of State, Christopher, who was known for his low-key and methodical negotiating style, oversaw the completion (1977) of the Panama Canal Treaty, led the negotiations for the release in 1981 of 52 hostages held in the U.S. embassy in Tehran, supervised the 1995 Dayton Accords that ended the war in Bosnia, and in August 1995 became the first U.S. secretary of state to visit Hanoi. Christopher graduated (1945) from the University of Southern California while serving (1943–46) in the U.S. Naval Reserve. He obtained a law degree (1949) from Stanford University and clerked (1949–50) for Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas before joining the Los Angeles corporate law firm O’Melveny & Myers (he was made a partner in 1958 and served as chairman from 1982 to 1992). He took his first leave of absence to serve as U.S. deputy attorney general (1967–69) under Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson. Christopher later headed the committee that in 1991 recommended substantial reforms to the Los Angeles Police Department following the beating of African American Rodney King. He also led Vice Pres. Al Gore’s legal team in the disputed 2000 U.S. presidential election.

Encyclopædia Britannica
Robert William Fogel
American economist
Robert William Fogel, (born July 1, 1926, New York, New York, U.S.—died June 11, 2013, Oak Lawn, Illinois), American economist who, with Douglass C. North, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1993. The two were cited for having developed cliometrics, the application of statistical analysis to the study of economic history.
Fogel attended Cornell University (B.A., 1948), Columbia University (M.A., 1960), and Johns Hopkins University (Ph.D., 1963); he later received M.A. degrees from the University of Cambridge (1975) and Harvard University (1976). After teaching at Johns Hopkins and the University of Rochester, he joined the faculty of the University of Chicago (1964). He later accepted a position at Harvard (1975–81), after which he returned to Chicago.
Fogel first attracted attention in the early 1960s with his statistical analysis of the impact of railroads on 19th-century American economic development. Contrary to the thinking of the time, he argued that the building of railroads in the United States had contributed far less than had been believed to the overall growth of the economy. The publication in 1974 of Time on the Cross: The Economics of American Negro Slavery, which he wrote with Stanley L. Engerman, generated considerable controversy because it contended that slavery had been a profitable enterprise that had collapsed for political—rather than economic—reasons. The resulting furor over this theory caused Fogel to write a defense of his work, Without Consent or Contract: The Rise and Fall of American Slavery (1989), which included a moral condemnation of slavery and clarified his earlier research. His later publications include Economic Growth, Population Theory and Physiology: The Bearings of Long-Term Processes on the Making of Economic Policy (1994), The Fourth Great Awakening and the Future of Egalitarianism (2002), The Slavery Debates, 1952–1990: A Retrospective (2003), and The Escape from Hunger and Premature Death, 1700–2100: Europe, America, and the Third World (2004).
