“Men make their own history, but they do not
make it just as they please; they do not make it
under circumstances chosen by themselves, but
under circumstances directly encountered, given
and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all
the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on
the brain of the living.”

Playboy considers 'radical changes' to flagship magazine

2009-05-13T23:08:00.000-04:00

By Julie Johnsson | Tribune staff reporter
4:56 PM CDT, May 11, 2009
Reeling from declines in readership and advertising, Playboy magazine is contemplating "radical changes" that may include cutting its circulation and reducing the frequency with which it is published, Jerome Kern, interim chairman and chief executive of Playboy Enterprises Inc. told analysts Monday.

The troubled publisher has embarked on a series of cost cuts in recent months, including closing its New York offices on May 1. Christie Hefner departed as CEO in January, after two decades as leader of the Chicago-based media firm, and Playboy's board is in the process of finding her replacement.

Next up is a make-over of its flagship publication. Playboy plans to combine its July and August issues into a single edition to reduce printing and distribution costs, and it is looking at trimming its circulation and reducing its advertising rates, officials said.

Playboy is also planning to roll out a redesign in its June edition aimed at bringing a "younger and fresher look to the magazine," Kern said.

Difficult Position For Obama

Obama seeks to rein in Wall Street, broaden agenda
By JIM KUHNHENN – 1 hour ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama and congressional Democrats are stepping through an economic minefield and sowing the ground with unprecedented initiatives that capitalize on the recession to rein in Wall Street and broaden government's reach.
Nothing better illustrated this watershed than the bustle and scope of the past few days.
Obama's treasury secretary, Timothy Geithner, touched off a Wall Street rally with a long-awaited plan to help rid banks of their toxic assets. Geithner rolled out a comprehensive overhaul of financial regulations in hopes of avoiding another meltdown. Congressional Democrats worked to put their own imprint on a budget full of ambition but saddled with deficits. The Full Story

Pakistan Mosque...Suicide Bomber...45 Killed

2009-03-27T10:39:00.001-04:00

"PESHAWAR, Pakistan — A suicide bomber demolished a mosque packed with hundreds of worshippers attending Friday prayers near the Afghan border, killing at least 48 people and injuring scores more, in the bloodiest attack in Pakistan this year.

The bomber struck at the climax of the service, as the mosque leader was starting the communal prayer, witnesses said.

"As the prayer leader said 'God is Great', the bomb went off with a big bang," said Nadir Shah, a local paramilitary solider attending the mosque. "I felt it was the end of everything. Sometime later when I opened my eyes, I was lying among dead bodies." " - Huff Post

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.

Gladiator left covered in blood after Colosseum fight

2009-03-09T00:21:00.000-04:00

am in Rome

Saturday, 7 March 2009

They may have been wearing breast plates of painted tin and brandishing wooden swords, but the injuries were real.

One of the "centurions" who haunts the Colosseum suffered head injuries this week in a fight with a colleague outside the arena. A police officer said he found the man sprawled on the ground "with his face covered in blood".

Officers said the centurions were fighting over tourists' attention but colleagues disagree. "It's not true he was beaten. He just fell over and hurt himself," one of the gladiators said.

In January, Rome's head of archaeology announced plans to bring realistic gladiator fights back to the Colosseum, with swords, nets, tridents and daggers. Until then the ageing freelancers provide the only whiff of period atmosphere around the elliptical amphitheatre.

The last recorded violence was in 2007 when a gladiator assaulted two American tourists claiming they had not paid enough.
