The 2010 Minnesota
Fringe Festival runs from Aug. 5-15, 2010CE, and the showcases
and prep started a long time ago. Counting the dress rehearsals I
did videos of, and the last performance I'll see today (Sun 8/15), I
have seen 49 fringes plus several showcases and videos and such.

Carolyn Foster Segal: Am I Green? (irascibleprofessor.com)
Three decades after the start of the contemporary environmentalist movement, we have reached the stage of rearranging the (plastic) deck chairs on the Titanic. The disconnect between the dystopian oil-soaked and ravaged-by-changes-in-weather real world and our daily practices is as extreme as a recent ten-minute storm that ravaged suburbs of Philadelphia, PA. All this was illuminated for me once again when I read the headline of the lead story in the business section of my local Sunday paper: "Give Your Toothbrush a Trim."
Barry Crimmins: Sickened Ire (huffingtonpost.com)
Yesterday I went to a doctor for a preliminary consultation for a colonoscopy. The entire procedure was to be covered by a state agency because I am 57 years old; have no health insurance; and a family history of colon cancer. This was surprising to me because as a preexister, I never expect to get any medical care at all in the United States. In fact I've gotten to the point where I think even hoping for any medical care is dangerous for someone in my condition.
Jim Hightower: SEE NEWT [Gingrich] RUN
With such funders, American Solutions can back Newt with a 20-person staff, a slick website, and a private jet to scoot him to Iowa, New Hampshire, and other political hotspots. Only - American Solutions is supposed to be a "policy" outfit, not a candidate's political organization. As such, it can take unlimited corporate money that Newt's GOP rivals can't accept. How does it get away with this?
Mark Shields: America Needs More Marine Corps Values (creators.com)
Marines take care of their own - and they take care of their fellow Marines before themselves. The well-being of the country and of the Corps is more important than our individual well-being. This may best be stated in the hard-and-fast Marine rule: "Officers eat last." The Marine officer does not eat until after his subordinates for whom he is responsible - the corporals and privates - have been fed. Marines live by the rule that loyalty goes both up and down the chain of command. Would not our country be a more just and human place if the brass of Wall Street and Washington and executive suites believed that "officers eat last"?
Mark Shields: Desperately Needed Now: Genuine Humor (creators.com)
As someone who earlier worked writing humor for many politicians from both parties, I can testify that only a special handful are both comfortable and convincing poking fun at themselves. There was no gag writer present when Reagan, as a candidate, was asked by a political reporter to autograph a poster photo of him and his chimp co-star in "Bedtime for Bonzo." Reagan wrote, "I'm the one with the watch."
roger ebert's journal: Traveler to the undiscover'd country
I watched Christopher Hitchens' CNN interview with Anderson Cooper with gathering sympathy. He had cancer. He was going to die. Apart from that, the treatment seemed about to kill him, and he was feeling very unwell. This man who often had a cigarette or a drink close at hand sat with the quiet of a man drained of energy, and reached out a hand to take a sip of water.
Marilyn Preston: Organic Vs. Non-Organic? Know The Dirty Dozen (creators.com)
It's summer, the perfect time to crank up your intake of fruits and vegetables. If you don't know why that's important, you have flunked Healthy Living 101 and can spend the rest of the day sipping high-fructose slushies at your local hot-dog stand. Others may proceed to your local farmer's market and have your best time. The peaches are divine, the berries are luscious, and even the beets are calling out to you: buy me, steam me, love me with a dash of olive oil and a side of just-picked sweet corn.
Editor position available at the Los Angeles Free Press
Nothing is always the safest thing to say, so people who say things are
inherently brave, especially writers, who do nothing but say things, often
stupidly, and quite often in the wrong order. That's where editors come in. The
first sentence in this paragraph needs an editor and, unfortunately, it's
me.
The Los Angeles Free Press needs an editor too because, unfortunately, it's
no longer me. The publisher, Steven M. Finger,
has declared that "news has lost its relevence [sic]," and has decided to
take the paper into a whole new direction, seeking that elusive "people going to
an online newspaper who aren't interested in reading any news" audience.
He refused to publish an
obit of Harvey Pekar, whose death was ignored by the mainstream media. I
thought the obit would be depressing on its own, so A) I used all his
YouTube appearances on David Letterman and B) I found
a
piece on an upcoming college cartoonist who, if she wises up by reading
every single Harvey Pekar comic book, just might have the talent to fill his
smelly shoes. She's probably never heard of Harvey Pekar, and would only find
out who he was by seeing the article next to hers. Finger published
the piece about the college artist without the Pekar tribute,
mysterious on a blog where, unlike print, it doesn't cost a thing to throw in
something extra like a YouTube video. These weren't monetary decisions, they
were editorial.
Why wouldn't he publish a Tuli
Kupferberg memorial by Paul Krassner? "Tuli's dead?" Finger said. "So
what? Find a piece of what was, and where it was meant to go - and he'll be the
heartbeat of it. He, and 50 others (including Pekar). And use it as
an illustration of what has been lost, and what is to be found - or to be made."
Okee doke. Should be a snap. I'll get right on it. Same old Los
Angeles Free Press, counterculture icon of the 60s, only no more obits of
60s counterculture icons BY 60s counterculture icons. Paul
knew Tuli, and Tuli was actually covered in the original Los Angeles
Free Press, so this refusal to print Krassner's piece on Kupferberg didn't make
a shred of sense, especially since Tuli's death had been ignored by the
mainstream media too, and that people seeking information about Tuli Kupferberg
would almost certainly look towards the Los Angeles Free Press. I was told no
more counterculture, only "culture and society." Films aren't culture? Health
care isn't society?
I don't understand the assignment. I was chosen by Art Kunkin, the
founder/publisher/editor of the original Free Press, to continue in the
tradition so this is just upsetting to see the paper veer off into
insanity. The pay being nine weeks in arrears ($1,370), I decided
aggravation was a poor substitute for a paycheck and stopped
posting.
And that's where it stands. I think I deserve to get paid for what I've
already done and so does my landlord. In the meantime, you're welcome to fill in
for me, as long as you don't mind working for the worst publisher on earth.
Here's
the last issue of the Daily Freep. Here's the latest issue of the Los
Angeles Free Press. In the grand tradition of wikileaks,
here are our embarrassing private
communications.

Based on the number of super-cheesey 'Bollywood' movies released each year, I would have to guess India.
Charlie answered:
Unsurprisingly, it is the United States, though the EU combined produces more.
Also unsurprisingly, Wisconsin is the largest cheese producing state.
Sally said:
The largest producer of cheese is the United States. Yeah, that figures - thinking Oscar and Emmy time...
PS: Had the most fun day with the gks yesterday. We went swimming all afternoon, then I cooked a nice dinner, setting the table with nice China and flowers. We ate on the balcony - at sunset - and listened to music from the RADIO (not ipod or other electronic options) and we TALKED. Today, when their parents returned home, they said, "We had the best time ever..." I think the best gift we can give our kids is our time, you know?
MAM took the day off.
Nothing like sending your Trivia email to yourself. I must be getting old! Today's answer is . . .
The United States with 30% of the world's production of cheese. US is red, all of Europe is the blue.
And, Joe S answered:
And the winner is .... the United States. In my honest opinion most of what is called cheese in the US isn't. I don't know what it is, but it's not cheese, really.
PS I may miss a trivia question or two in the next week or so. My granddaughters are runnin me ragged. Fun though.
Looks like we're gonna lose that lovely, but unseasonal, marine layer. Sigh.

Earth Day Network is enlisting groups in 15 countries to plant 1 million trees this year with "Avatar" movie director James Cameron and Twentieth Century Fox.
The Washington-based group is announcing its plans Sunday. Cameron planted the first of 1 million trees in April in Brazil.
In the U.S., trees will be planted in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles to improve air quality and urban animal habitats.
Tree plantings in such places as Mexico, Canada and Spain will be focused on reforestation of depleted areas.

A coffee-stained piano used by The Beatles at Abbey Road studios has been withdrawn from sale, the auctioneers said on Sunday, without giving a reason for a decision.
The battered Challen upright piano, which can be heard on hits such as "Paperback Writer" and "Tomorrow Never Knows", both recorded in Abbey Road in 1966, was valued at more than 100,000 pounds.
"This lot has been withdrawn," Bonhams auctioneers said on its website. A spokeswoman told AFP she could not comment on why the sale was cancelled.
Japan's new liberal prime minister shunned a visit to a shrine that has outraged Asian neighbors for honoring war criminals, breaking from past governments' tradition and instead apologizing Sunday for the suffering World War II caused.
Members of the now-opposition Liberal Democratic Party, which ruled Japan nearly continuously since the end of the war, made a point by carrying out their own trip to Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo on the 65th anniversary of the end of World War II.
The Shinto shrine - a spectacular building with sweeping roofs and a museum in its grounds that glorifies kamikaze pilots - has set off controversy by honoring the 2.5 million Japanese war dead, including Class A war criminals such as Hideki Tojo, Japan's wartime prime minister who was executed in 1948.
Among those who visited Yasukuni was LDP leader Sadakazu Tanigaki and former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. About 40 legislators went to the shrine, but none from Prime Minister Naoto Kan's Cabinet, according to Japanese media reports.
Kan leads the Democratic Party, which took power last year after winning elections on promises of greater transparency and grass-roots democracy. It is the first time since the end of World War II that the entire Japanese Cabinet has avoided visiting Yasukuni on Aug. 15, the day Japan surrendered in the war.

A popular Saudi holiday sitcom has drawn the ire of conservative clerics over an episode portraying Arab Christians in a positive light after the kingdom sought to sell itself as a leader of dialogue between faiths.
"Tash Ma Tash," which has aired during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan for 17 years, is no stranger to controversy and its episodes have grown bolder over the years, tackling issues from morals police and polygamy to the heavy influence of religion on education in the deeply conservative society.
A two-part "Uncle Boutros" episode of the sitcom showed the two main Saudi characters, both Muslims, being advised by their dying father to visit the brother of their deceased Lebanese mother, about whom they know next to nothing.
After a tearful reunion, the pair discover their mother's relatives were Christians and Uncle Boutros was a priest. Despite their initial shock, the brothers slowly come to respect their uncle's Christianity, although they try to convert him to Islam and give him a Koran.
Another MTV "Jersey Shore" cast member has been arrested in the New Jersey town where the show is based.
Seaside Heights police say 24-year-old Ronald "Ronnie" Ortiz-Magro was taken into custody around noon Sunday for outstanding warrants from two other Garden State communities. The warrants involve unpaid parking tickets.
Police say the Bronx, N.Y., resident was released a short time later "after satisfying the conditions of the warrants."
Ortiz-Magro was also arrested in September 2009 by Seaside Heights officers after a brawl on the boardwalk.

A sheriff says reality TV actress Tila Tequila complained that audience members pelted her with stones and feces during an outdoor music festival in southern Illinois.
Hardin County Sheriff Tom Seiner told a Carterville TV station it happened early Saturday at the Gathering of the Juggalos. That's a weekend festival based around the band Insane Clown Posse and other groups from Psychopathic Records.
Seiner told WSIL-TV that Tequila, whose real name is Tila Nguyen, complained that she was injured when audience members threw rocks at her. Seiner said Nguyen also complained that feces were thrown.
Many people have bad hair days, but one that cost $35 million? Not even Paris Hilton could do that -- at least, that's what she says.
Lawyers for the hotel heiress and socialite on Thursday said they "will pursue all of our defenses vigorously and any potential counter claims" against a company that sued Hilton for $35 million claiming she broke a contract to wear its hair extensions.
One day earlier, Beverly Hills-based Hairtech International Inc filed its suit alleging Hilton, a member of the family that founded the hotel chain bearing her name, broke a contract in 2008 when she wore a rival company's extensions.
The suit caused headlines around the world as the media seized upon it as a way to tease the wealthy heiress who has acted on TV and in movies, and endorsed products ranging from jewelry to apparel, cosmetics, perfume and hair products.
Hilton's personal life has long been fodder for the tabloid press, and she has had her share of troubles with the law, including a reckless driving arrest and probation violation.

The monkey is the size of a cat, has grayish-brown hair, but does not have a white bar on its forehead as many of the other species of Callicebus most closely related to it.

At the height of the Iraq war, the Army routinely dismissed hundreds of soldiers for having a personality disorder when they were more likely suffering from the traumatic stresses of war, discharge data suggests.
Under pressure from Congress and the public, the Army later acknowledged the problem and drastically cut the number of soldiers given the designation. But advocates for veterans say an unknown number of troops still unfairly bear the stigma of a personality disorder, making them ineligible for military health care and other benefits.
The Army denies that any soldier was misdiagnosed before 2008, when it drastically cut the number of discharges due to personality disorders and diagnoses of post-traumatic stress disorders skyrocketed.
Unlike PTSD, which the Army regards as a treatable mental disability caused by the acute stresses of war, the military designation of a personality disorder can have devastating consequences for soldiers.
Katrina Clark and Lindsay Greenawalt have much in common. Bright women in their 20s, raised by single mothers, keenly curious about the men whose donated sperm helped give them life.
Greenawalt, who lives near Cleveland, and Clark, a college student in Washington, D.C., are part of an increasingly outspoken generation of donor offspring. They want to transform the dynamics of sperm donation so the children's interests are given more weight and it becomes easier to learn about their biological fathers.
One specific goal - a ban on anonymous sperm donations - seems far-off in the United States, although Britain and several other European countries have taken that step.
But the voices of donor offspring are being heard more widely and clearly than ever, thanks to Internet-based social networking and other recent developments.

Feuding Ohio strippers and churchgoers who have been protesting each other have agreed to meet and discuss their differences.
Foxhole strip club owner Tommy George says churchgoers with bullhorns have bothered his patrons. New Beginnings Ministries pastor Bill Dunfee calls the strip club a nuisance. They say they'll negotiate for the first time Wednesday.
The decision came after two women from ministries that evangelize to adult-entertainment industry workers spoke during Sunday's sermon at the church in Warsaw, 60 miles northeast of Columbus.
San Diego resident Sheri Brown and Grand Rapids, Mich., resident Anny Donewald say the congregation should just love the strippers and "let the Holy Spirit draw them out."
Sylvester Stallone and his pumped-up pals lifted Lionsgate's 1980s-style action romp "The Expendables" to a No. 1 debut with $35 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.
While the macho "Expendables" lured male audiences, Julia Roberts delivered a crowd-pleaser for women with Sony's "Eat Pray Love," which opened at No. 2 with $23.7 million.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Final figures will be released Monday.
1. "The Expendables," $35 million.
2. "Eat Pray Love," $23.7 million.
3. "The Other Guys," $18 million.
4. "Inception," $11.4 million.
5. "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," $10.5 million.
6. "Despicable Me," $6.8 million.
7. "Step Up 3D," $6.6 million.
8. "Salt," $6.4 million.
9. "Dinner for Schmucks," $6.3 million.
