If you haven't read Jonah Goldberg's Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning, I'd highly recommend it.
Although it's not as witty as Goldberg's columns, it's a well researched, incredibly important book that will change the way you view fascism, Nazism, and liberalism. You'll get a sense of that as you read these quotes…
(Liberal) logic seems to be that multiculturalism, the Peace Corps, and such are good things — things that liberals approve of — and good things can't be fascist by simple virtue of the fact that liberals approve of them. — P.7
The major flaw in all of this is that fascism, properly understood, is not a phenomenon of the right at all. Instead, it is, and always has been, a phenomenon of the left. This fact — an inconvenient truth if there ever was one — is obscured in our time by the equally mistaken belief that fascism and communism are opposites. In reality, they are closely related, historical competitors for the same constituents. — P.7
Before the war, fascism was widely viewed as a progressive social movement with many liberal and left-wing adherents in Europe and the United States… — P.9
Indeed, it is my argument that during World War I, America became a fascist country, albeit temporarily. The first appearance of modern totalitarianism in the Western world wasn't in Italy or Germany but in the United States of America. How else would you describe a country where the world's first modern propaganda ministry was established; political prisoners by the thousands were harassed, beaten, spied upon, and thrown in jail simply for expressing private opinions; the national leader accused foreigners or immigrants of injecting treasonous "poison into the American bloodstream;" newspapers and magazines were shut down for criticizing the government; nearly a hundred thousand government propaganda agents were sent out among the people to whip up support for the regime and its war; college professors imposed loyalty oaths on their colleagues; nearly a quarter-million goons were given legal authority to intimidate and beat "slackers" and dissenters; and leading artists and writers dedicated their crafts to proselytizing for the government? — P.11-12
American progressivism, from which today's liberalism descended, was a kind of Christian fascism (many called it "Christian socialism"). This is a difficult concept for modern liberals to grasp because they are used to thinking of the progressives as the people who cleaned up the food supply, pushed through the eight hour workday, and ended child labor. But liberals often forget that the progressives were imperialists, at home and abroad. They were the authors of Prohibition, the Palmer Raids, eugenics, loyalty oaths, and, in its modern incarnation, what many call "state capitalism." — P.15
Heinrich Himmler was a certified animal rights activist and an aggressive promoter of "natural healing." Rudolf Hess, Hitler's deputy, championed homeopathy and herbal remedies. Hitler and his advisers dedicated hours of their time to discussions of the need to move the entire nation to vegetarianism as a response to the unhealthiness promoted by capitalism. Dachau hosted the world's largest alternative and organic medicine research lab and produced its own organic honey. In profound ways, the Nazi antismoking and public health drives foreshadowed today's crusades against junk food, trans fat, and the like. A Hitler Youth manual proclaimed, "Nutrition is not a private matter!" — P.19
The introduction of a novel term like "liberal fascism" obviously requires an explanation. Many critics will undoubtedly regard it as a crass oxymoron. Actually, however, I am not the first to use the term. That honor falls to H.G. Wells, one of the greatest influences on the progressive mind in the twentieth century (and, it turns out, the inspiration for Huxley's Brave New World). Wells didn't coin the phrase as an indictment, but as a badge of honor. Progressives must become "liberal fascists" and "enlightened Nazis," he told the Young Liberals at Oxford in a speech in July 1932. — P.21
Finally, since we must have a working definition of fascism, here is mine: Fascism is a religion of the state. It assumes the organic unity of the body politic and longs for a national leader attuned to the will of the people. It is totalitarian in that it views everything as political and holds that any action by the state is justified to achieve the common good. It takes responsibility for all aspects of life, including our health and well-being, and seeks to impose uniformity of thought and action, whether by force or through regulation and social pressure. Everything, including the economy and religion, must be aligned with its objectives. Any rival identity is part of the "problem" and therefore defined as the enemy. I will argue that contemporary American liberalism embodies all of these aspects of fascism. — P.23
Before Hitler, in fact, it never occurred to anyone that fascism had anything to do with anti-Semitism. — P.26
What distinguished Nazism from other brands of socialism and communism was not so much that it included more aspects from the political right (though there were some). What distinguished Nazism was that it forthrightly included a worldview we now associate almost completely with the political left: identity politics. This was what distinguished Nazism from doctrinaire communism, and it seems hard to argue the marriage of one leftist vision to another can somehow produce right-wing progeny. If this was how the world worked, we would have to label nationalist-socialist organizations like the PLO and Cuban Communist Party right-wing. — P.73
Hitler's hatred for communism has been opportunistically exploited to signify ideological distance, when in fact it indicated the exact opposite. Today this maneuver has settled into conventional wisdom. But what Hitler hated about Marxism and communism had almost nothing to do with those aspects of communism that we would consider relevant, such as the economic doctrine or the need to destroy capitalists and bourgeoise. In these areas Hitler largely saw eye to eye with socialists and communists. His hatred stemmed from his paranoid conviction that the people calling themselves communists were in fact in on a foreign, Jewish conspiracy. He says this over and over again in Mein Kampf. — P.75
Fascism, at its core, is the view that every nook and cranny of society should work together in spiritual union toward the same goals overseen by the state. "Everything in the state, nothing outside the state," is how Mussolini defined it. Mussolini coined the word "totalitarian" to describe not a tyrannical society but a humane one in which everyone is taken care of and contributes equally. — P.80
Today, liberals remember the progressives as do-gooders who cleaned up the food supply and agitated for a more generous social welfare state and better working conditions. Fine, the progressives did that. But so did the Nazis and the Italian Fascists. And they did it for the same reasons and in loyalty to roughly the same principles. — P.81
Lord Acton's famous observation that "power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely" has long been misunderstood. Acton was not arguing that power causes powerful leaders to become corrupt (though he probably believed that, too). Rather, he was noting that historians tend to forgive the powerful for transgressions they would never condone by the weak. — P.84
Today we unreflectively associate fascism with militarism. But it should be remembered that fascism was militaristic because militarism was "progressive" at the beginning of the twentieth century. — P.106
It's true: under McCarthyism a few Hollywood writers who'd supported Stalin and then lied about it lost their jobs in the 1950s. Others were unfairly intimidated. But nothing that happened under the mad reign of Joe McCarthy remotely compares what (Woodrow) Wilson and his fellow progressives foisted on America. Under the espionage Act of June 1917 and the Sedition Act of May 1918, any criticism of the government, even in your own home, could earn you a prison sentence (a law Oliver Wendell Holmes upheld years after the war, arguing that such speech could be banned if it posed a "clear and present danger"). In Wisconsin a state official got two and half years for criticizing a Red Cross fund-raising drive. A Hollywood producer received a ten-year stint in jail for making a film that depicted British troops committing atrocities during the American Revolution. One man was even brought to trial for explaining in his own home why he didn't want to buy Liberty Bonds. — P.114
For example, one will virtually never hear that the Palmer Raids, Prohibition, or American eugenics were thoroughly progressive phenomena. These are sins America itself must atone for. Meanwhile, real or alleged "conservative" misdeeds — say McCarthyism — are always the exclusive fault of conservatives and a sign of the policies they would repeat if given power. The only culpable mistake that liberals make is failing to fight "hard enough" for their principles. Liberals are never responsible for historic misdeeds because they feel no compulsion to defend the inherent goodness of America. Conservatives, meanwhile, not only take the blame for events not of their own making that they often worked the most assiduously against, but find themselves defending liberal misdeeds in order to defend America herself. — P.118
The German and American New Deals may have been merely whatever Hitler and FDR felt they could get away with. But therein lies a common principle: the state should be allowed to get away with anything, so long as it is for "good reasons." This is the common principle among fascism, Nazism, Progressivism, and what we today call liberalism. — P.131
Ever since FDR's presidency — when "liberalism" replaced "Progressivism" as the preferred label for center-left political ideas and activism — liberals have had trouble articulating what liberalism is, beyond the conviction that the federal government should use its power to do nice things whenever and wherever it can. — P.132
In 1927 H.G. Wells couldn't help but notice "the good there is in these Fascists. There is something brave and well-meaning about them." By 1941 no less a figure than George Orwell couldn't help but conclude, "Much of what Wells has imagined and worked for is physically there in Nazi Germany. — P.135
This is as good a place as any to tackle the enduring myth that (Huey) Long and (Father) Coughlin were conservatives. It is a bedrock dogma of all enlightened liberals that Father Charles Coughlin was an execrable right-winger (Long is a more complicated case, but whenever his legacy is portrayed negatively, he is characterized as right-wing; whenever he is a friend of the people, he's a left-winger). Again and again, Coughlin is referred to as "the right-wing Radio Priest" whom supposedly insightful essayists describe as the ideological grandfather of Rush Limbaugh, Pat Buchanan, Ann Coulter, and other putative extremists. But Coughlin was in no meaningful way a conservative or even a right-winger. He was a man of the left in nearly all significant respects. — P.137
That (Father) Coughlin garnered 40 million listeners in a nation of only 127 million and that his audience was largest when he was calling the New Deal "Christ's Deal" should tell us something about the nature of FDR's appeal and Coughlin's. — P.145
(In 1933 members of Mussolini's press office) issued an order: "It is not to be emphasized that Roosevelt's policy is fascist because these comments are immediately cabled to the United States and are used by his foes to attack him. — P.148
According to a document unearthed by the Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter, FDR's staff prepared a radio address to the American Legion, the first to be delivered after his inaugural, in which FDR was to instruct the veterans that they should become his own "extra-constitutional" "private army" (Alter's words). "A new commander-in-chief under the oath to which you are still bound," Roosevelt's prepared text read, "I reserve to myself the right to command you in any phase of the situation which now confronts us." While Alter concedes this was "dictator talk — an explicit power grab" and showed that FDR or his minions contemplated forming "a makeshift force of veterans to enforce some kind of martial law," he minimizes the importance of his own discovery. — P.151
Progressivism, liberalism, or whatever you want to call it has become an ideology of power. So long as liberals hold it, principles don't matter. — P.158
The government cannot love you, and any politics that works on a different assumption is destined for no good. — P.159-160
It's bizarre how many people remember the 1960s as a time of "unity" and "hope" when it was in reality a time of rampant domestic terrorism, campus tumult, assassinations, and riots. — P.171
One of the most illuminating symptoms of left-wing revolutionary movements is their tendency to blur the difference between common crime and political rebellion. The Brownshirts beat up storekeepers, shook down businessmen, and vandalized property, rationalizing all of it in the name of the "movement." Left-wing activists still refer to the L.A. riots as an "uprising" or "rebellion." — P.186
(Che Guevara's) motto was "If in doubt, kill him," and he killed a great many. — P.194
Benjamin Chavis, the future head of the NAACP, first attained national recognition when he was arrested and convicted as a member of the Wilmington Ten, a group that allegedly conspired to firebomb a grocery story and then shoot the police when they responded to the scene. — P.196
It was in the 1960s that the left convinced itself that there is something fascistic about patriotism and something perversely "patriotic" about running down America. Anti-Americanism — a stand-in for hatred of Western civilization — became the stuff of sophisticates and intellectuals as never before. Flag burners became the truest "patriots" because dissent — not just from partisan politics, but the American project itself — became the highest virtue. — P.197
After Roy Cohn, Bobby Kennedy was (Joe) McCarthy's most valued aide. — P.207
It is worth recalling that the origins of the modern conservative movement stem from an instinctive desire to shrink the state back down to a manageable size after the war. But the Cold War changed that, forcing many conservatives to support a large national security state in order to defeat communism. This decision on the part of foreign policy hawks created a permanent schism on the American right. — P.214
Despite his flaws and unforgivable excesses, (Joseph McCarthy) accurately called attention to the fact that much of the liberal establishment had been infested with communists and communist sympathizers. For that crime he, too, was dubbed a fascist. — P.225
Liberals love populism, when it comes from the left. But whenever the people's populist desires are at cross purposes with the agenda of the left, suddenly "reaction," "extremism," and of course "fascism" are loosed upon the land. Bill Clinton titled his "blueprint" for America Putting People First, but when the people rejected his agenda, we were informed that "angry white men" (read white "authoritarian personalities") were a threat to the Republic. — P.229
In 1964 Senator Barry Goldwater was National Review's candidate of choice rather than of compromise. Goldwater was the first Republican presidential candidate since Coolidge to break with the core assumptions of Progressivism, including what Goldwater called "me-too Republicanism." — P.232
The most important legacy of the 1960s has to be liberal guilt. Guilt over their inability to create the Great Society. Guilt over leaving children, blacks, and the rest of the Coalition of the Oppressed "behind." Guilt is among the most religious of emotions and has a way of devolving into a narcissistic God complex. Liberals were proud of how guilty they felt. Why? Because it confirmed liberal omnipotence. — P.237
The American right is constantly required to own the darkest chapters in the country's history: the accommodation of segregationists, McCarthyite excesses, isolationism prior to World War 2, and so on. Rarely mentioned is the liberal side of these stories, in which the Democratic Party was the home to Jim Crow for a century; in which American liberalism was at least as isolationist as American conservatism; in which the progressive Red Scare made McCarthyism look like an Oxford Union debate; in which successive Democratic presidents ordered such things as the detention of Japanese-Americans, sweeping domestic surveillance of political enemies, and the (justified) use of horrific weapons on Japan; and in which Moscow-loyal communists "named names" of heretical Trotskyites. — P.244
In the hothouse logic of the left, those who opposed forced sterilization of the "unfit" and the poor were villains for letting a "state of nature" rule among the lower classes. — P.257
Almost all the leading progressive intellectuals interpreted Darwinian theory as a writ to "interfere" with human natural selection. Even progressives with no ostensible ties to eugenics worked closely with champions of the cause. There was simply no significant stigma against racist eugenics in progressive circles. — P.258
When modern liberals try to explain away the Klan membership of prominent Democrats — most frequently West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd — they cough up a few cliches about how good liberals "evolved" from their southern racial "conservatism." But the Klan of the 1920s was often seen as reformist and modern, and it had a close relationship with some progressive elements in the Democratic Party. The young Harry Truman as well as the future Supreme Court justice Hugo Black were members. — P.259
Consider the infamous Tuskegee experiments, where poor black men were allegedly infected with syphilis without their knowledge and then monitored for years. …In fact, the Tuskegee experiments were approved and supported by well-meaning health professionals who saw nothing wrong or racist with playing God. As the University of Chicago's Richard Shweder writes, the "study emerged out of a liberal progressive public health movement concerned about the health and wellbeing of the African-American population." If racism played a part, as it undoubtedly did, it was the racism of liberals, not conservatives. But that's not how the story is told. — P.261
Others, such as the Davis-Bacon Act, reflect the racial animus of the progressives. The act was passed in 1931 in order to prevent poor black laborers from "taking" jobs from whites. Its authors were honest about it, and it was explicitly passed for that reason; the comparatively narrow issue of cheap black labor was set against the backdrop of the vestigial progressive effort to maintain white supremacy…Today the Davis-Bacon Act is as sacred to many labor movement liberals as Roe v. Wade is feminists. Indeed, as Mickey Kaus has observed, devotion to Davis-Bacon is more intense today than it was thirty years ago, when self-described neoliberals considered it a hallmark of outdated interest-group liberalism. — P.265
The Great Society's racial meddling — often under various other guises — yielded one setback after another. Crime soared because of the Great Society and the attitudes of which it partook. In 1960 the total number of murders was lower than it had been in 1930, 1940, and 1950 despite a population explosion. In the decade after the Great Society, the murder rate effectively doubled. Black-on-black crime soared in particular. Riots exploded on LBJ's watch, often with the subtle encouragement of Great Society liberals who rewarded such behavior. Out-of-wedlock births among blacks skyrocketed. Economically, as Thomas Sowell has catalogued, the biggest drop in black poverty took place during the two decades before the Great Society. — P.269-270
In 1939 (Margaret) Sanger created the previously mentioned "Negro Project," which aimed to get blacks to adopt birth control. Through the Birth Control Federation, she hired black ministers (including the Reverend Adam Clayton Powell Sr.), doctors, and other leaders to help pare down the supposedly surplus black population. The project's racist intent is beyond doubt. "The mass of significant Negroes," read the project's report, "still breed carelessly and disastrously, with the result that the increase among Negroes….in that portion of the population least intelligent and fit." Sanger's intent is shocking today, but she recognized its extreme radicalism even then. "We do not want word to go out," she wrote to a colleague, "that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." — P.273
So forget about intent: look at results. Abortion ends more black lives than heart disease, cancer, accidents, AIDS, and violent crime combined. African-Americans constitute little more than 12 percent of the population but have more than a third (37 percent) of abortions. …Revealingly enough, roughly 80 percent of Planned Parenthood's abortion centers are in or near minority communities. — P.277
To forgive something by saying "it's a black thing" is philosophically no different from saying "it's an Aryan thing." The moral context matters a great deal. But the excuse is identical. — P.282
The National Socialist German Workers' Party was in every respect a grassroots populist party. Party leaders spouted all sorts of socialist prattle about seizing the wealth of the rich. Mein Kampf is replete with attacks on "dividend-hungry businessmen" whose "greed," "ruthlessness," and "short-sighted narrow-mindedness" were ruining the country. Hitler adamantly took the side of the trade union movement over "dishonorable employers." — P.288
Upon seizing power, the radicals in the Nazi Party Labor Union threatened to put business leaders in concentration camps if they didn't increase workers' wages. — P.288
The fascist bargain goes something like this. The state says to the industrialist, "You may stay in business and own your factories. In the spirit of cooperation and unity, we will even guarantee you profits and a lack of serious competition. In exchange, we expect you to agree with — and help implement — our political agenda. — P.290
This is the hidden history of big business from the railroads of the nineteenth century, to the meatpacking industry under Teddy Roosevelt, to the outrageous cartel of "Big Tobacco" today: supposedly right-wing corporations work hand in glove with progressive politicians and bureaucrats in both parties to exclude small businesses, limit competition, ensure market share and prices, and generally work as government by proxy. — P.308
What seems to motivate people like (Robert) Reich is an abiding conviction that they are on the right side of history. Their aim is to help the people, and therefore they are not required to play by the rules. — P.343
At the end of the day their welfare state — based though it may have been on love, concern, and niceness — resulted in more damage to the black family and specifically to black children that much that can be laid at the feet of racist neglect. Today black children are less likely to be raised by two parents than they were during the era of slavery. — P.347
The simple fact of the matter is this: liberals are the aggressors in the culture wars. — P.360
During his rise to power Hitler — in many respects the heir of Bismarckian progressives — could hardly launch an all-out attack on Christianity. National Socialism, after all, was supposed to unite all Germans. It's "not opportune to hurl ourselves now into a struggle with the churches. The best thing is to let Christianity die a natural death," Hitler explained to his aides. — P.363
In 1935 mandatory prayer in (German) school was abolished, and in 1938 carols and nativity plays were banned entirely. By 1941 religious instruction for children fourteen years and up had been abolished altogether and Jacobinism reigned supreme. A Hitler Youth song rang out from the campfires:
We are the happy Hitler Youth;
We have no need for Christian virtue;
For Adolf Hitler is our intercessor
And our redeemer.
No priest, no evil one
Can keep us
From feeling like Hitler's children.
No Christ do we follow, but Horst Wessel!
Away with incense and holy water pots.
The Nazis played the same games against Jews that today's left plays against "Eurocentrism," "whiteness," and "logocentrism." When you hear a campus radical denounce "white logic" or "male logic," she is standing on the shoulders of a Nazi who denounced "Jewish logic" and the "Hebrew disease." — P.368
The traditional family is the enemy of all political totalitarianisms because it is a bastion of loyalties separate from and prior to the state, which is why progressives are constantly trying to crack its outer shell. — P.377
Nazi attitudes toward homosexuality are also a source of confusion. While it is true that some homosexuals were sent to concentration camps, it is also the case that the early Nazi Party and the constellation of Pan-German organizations in its orbit were rife with homosexuals. It's well-known, for example, that Ernst Rohm, the head of the SA and his coterie were homosexuals, and openly so. — P.378
When Charles Wuster, the chief scientist for the Environmental Defense Fund, was told that banning DDT would probably result in millions of deaths, he replied, "This is as good a way to get rid of them as any." — P.383
The Nazis were among the first to make fighting air pollution, creating nature preserves, and pushing for sustainable forestry central plants in their platform. — P.384
A top priority of the Nazis upon attaining power was to implement a sweeping animal rights law. In August 1933 Hermann Goring barred the "unbearable torture and suffering in animal experiments," threatening to commit to concentration camps "those who still think they can treat animals an inanimate property." — P.386
Many progressives seem to think we can transform America into a vast college campus where food, shelter, and recreation are all provided for us and the only crime is to be mean to somebody else, particularly a minority. — P.393
One of the overriding points of Liberal Fascism is that all of the totalitarian "isms" of the left commit the fallacy of the category error. They all want the state to be something it cannot be. They passionately believe the government can love you, that the state can be your God or your church or your tribe or your parent or your village or all of these things at once. Conservatives occasionally make this mistake, libertarians never do, liberals almost always do. — P.412
America is not threatened by a hard fascism the likes of which we saw during the first half of the twentieth century. This country by design and culture would break the spine of any would-be dictator almost instantly and that is one of the reasons I love her so. — P.421-422

On a sunny Saturday afternoon at Nationals Park, Teddy Roosevelt took an early lead in the 4th-inning presidents race, but faded quickly as George Washington put on a burst of speed to take the lead; but George couldn't maintain the pace, and Abraham Lincoln once again was well-positioned to finish strong and take his 16th presidents race of the 2010 season.
The day after Abe inexplicably flattened the GEICO Gecko, our 16th president was at it again, this time crossing the finish line, then grabbing the Gecko's flag and waving it in a triumphant march up the first base line.
Perhaps it's the heat.

Williams loses in Wimbledon stunner
AP Sports Writer
LONDON — Serena Williams joined a growing list of marquee names eliminated early at this wild and unpredictable Wimbledon.
The defending champion and five-time Wimbledon winner failed to close out a see-saw third set Monday, dropping the last four games to Sabine Lisicki of Germany and losing 6-2, 1-6, 6-4 in the fourth round. The result ended Williams' career-best 34-match winning streak.
It was the latest in a string of improbable exits to jolt the tournament, with defending champion Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal knocked out in the first three days along with Maria Sharapova and Victoria Azarenka.
"I probably couldn't be more disappointed," Williams said. "I think I may have backed off of a success. I was playing something successful. I didn't continue that path. The result didn't go the way it could have gone had I continued to play the way I did in the second set."
Of the two big favorites still in the tournament, second-seeded Andy Murray stayed on course for a second straight final by beating 20th-seeded Mikhail Youzhny of Russia 6-4, 7-6 (5), 6-1, while top-ranked Novak Djokovic played Tommy Haas later.
After dropping the first set, Williams looked to be cruising, winning nine straight games to take a 3-0 lead in the third. The players then traded breaks to give Williams a 4-2 lead, but the American couldn't win another game despite having four break points at 4-3.
Those would have given her a chance to serve for the match. Instead, Lisicki held, broke again, and converted her second match point with a forehand winner.
"I'm still shaking," Lisicki said in a post-match interview, covering her face with her hands to wipe away tears. "I'm just so happy."
Williams said her serve — usually her main weapon — let her down in the third set.
"I felt that I was on the verge of winning," she said. "At that point I just was physically unable to hold serve. … You have to be ready and willing to hold your serve. I wasn't willing or able, probably didn't even want to hold my serve today."
Lisicki reached the semifinals at the All England Club in 2011 but this will rank as her biggest victory at the grass-court Grand Slam. She has now eliminated the reigning French Open champion the last four times she played Wimbledon, having missed the tournament in 2010. She ousted Sharapova in the fourth round last year.
Murray, facing the ever-increasing pressure to become the first British man since 1936 to win Wimbledon, was in trouble in the second set. He trailed 5-2 against Youzhny, a 2012 Wimbledon quarterfinalist, but broke back when the Russian served for the set at 5-4. Then, down 5-3 in the tiebreaker, Murray took the set's last four points. He broke immediately in the third, and cruised from there to set up a meeting with Fernando Verdasco of Spain.
Murray is the only British player left in the tournament, after 19-year-old Laura Robson lost. She couldn't recover from her missed chances in the first set and fell 7-6 (5), 7-5 to Kaia Kanepi of Estonia, failing to become the first British woman in the quarters of any Grand Slam since 1984.
Robson, the first British woman to reach the second week at Wimbledon since 1998, served for the first set at 5-4 but was broken, then led 5-2 in the tiebreaker.
She double-faulted at 5-4, with neither serve coming close to going in — the first one went about 5 feet long and the second bounced into the net.
"I had my chances here and there and I just didn't take them," Robson said. "At that point, I was just trying to will myself to play unbelievable tennis when just making a serve would have been fine. But, as cliche as it sounds, it's all part of the learning experience. The more I get myself into those kinds of situations, the more I'm going to benefit."
Instead of a big headline Williams vs. Robson matchup, Kanepi will now face Lisicki in the quarterfinals.
Former champion Petra Kvitova, last year's runner-up Agnieszka Radwanska and No. 4 David Ferrer all avoided upsets to advance, as did sixth-seeded Li Na of China.
Juan Martin del Potro, playing with his left knee heavily taped after a scary fall in the previous round, beat Andreas Seppi 6-4, 7-6 (2), 6-3. He said his knee was "really painful" but that he hopes it will be better by the time he plays fourth-seeded David Ferrer on Wednesday.
Ferrer overcame another slow start to beat Ivan Dodig of Croatia 6-7 (3), 7-6 (6), 6-1, 6-1. Having trailed twice in the previous round before winning in five sets, Ferrer struggled initially to create opportunities on Dodig's serve and was two points from going two sets down against the Croat. But he dominated the final two sets, breaking Dodig five times and clinching the match with a forehand winner.
Despite Williams' loss, there's still an American woman in the quarters after Sloane Stephens beat 19-year-old Monica Puig of Puerto Rico 4-6, 7-5, 6-1.
On a busy day at Wimbledon with every round-of-16 match to be played, Kvitova was the first to reach the last eight, beating Carla Suarez Navarro of Spain 7-6 (5), 6-3. She will play Kirsten Flipkens of Belgium, who reached her first career Grand Slam quarterfinal by ousting Flavia Pennetta of Italy 7-6 (2), 6-3 — a year after her ranking plummeted to 262nd because of injuries.
Poland will send two men into the quarterfinals for the first time after 24th-seeded Jerzy Janowicz and 130th-ranked Lukasz Kubot each won five-set matches.
The big-serving Janowicz outlasted Jurgen Melzer 3-6, 7-6 (1), 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, while Kubot defeated Adrian Mannarino 4-6, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. They'll play each other Wednesday with the winner becoming the country's first Grand Slam semifinalist.
In other results, Verdasco beat Frenchman Kenny De Schepper 6-4, 6-4, 6-4, and 15th-seeded Marion Bartoli ousted Karin Knapp of Italy 6-2, 6-3. Radwanska rallied to beat Tsvetana Pironkova of Bulgaria 4-6, 6-3, 6-3.

The United States Supreme Court rejected a request from a Chicago-area prosecutor to review a recent ruling that the First Amendment protects a right to record the actions of police officers as they perform their public duties.
The lower court's decision was hotly contested. A two-judge majority ruled in May that "the act of making an audio or audiovisual recording is necessarily included within the First Amendment's guarantee of speech and press rights as a corollary of the right to disseminate the resulting recording." But Judge Richard Posner dissented. During oral arguments, he worried upholding a First Amendment right to record the police would lead to "a lot more of this snooping around by reporters and bloggers."
In his dissent, Judge Posner claimed the majority's ruling "casts a shadow over electronic privacy statutes of other states." But the majority disagreed. "The Illinois eavesdropping statute obliterates the distinction between private and nonprivate by criminalizing all nonconsensual audio recording regardless of whether the communication is private in any sense," the other two judges ruled. They suggested laws that only limited recording in private settings stood a better chance of passing muster under the First Amendment.
The Supreme Court's decision to let the Seventh Circuit's ruling stand is a victory for the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois, which spearheaded the case. The ACLU's chapter in Massachusetts also had success vindicating a First Amendment right to record the actions of public officials. The First Circuit Court of Appeals ruled police violated the rights of a Boston man when they arrested him for using his cell phone to record the arrest of a suspect. In March, the city agreed to pay $170,000 to settle his civil rights lawsuit.

Things I bet you never knew about tigers…
Usually vitriolic, at times bellicose; I'm not here to be nice
A weekly challenge from Reduce Footprints blog. I try to participate weekly.
Each Friday, something to think about
A walk on the natural side each Sunday (or Monday...)
The Apothecary - A place to find natural products and remedies
The Green Ink Bottle - A repository for my quotes
So how have we gotten so far off course? When the label of 'green' was introduced, it was seen as a mission statement; something that would entitle the customer to some sense of comfort that they product they were supporting (which was usually more expensive) was working with the Earth's best interests at heart. Instead we have simply completed a full consumerist revolution; the label has been taken, assigned a cultural identity and used to sell a piece of a lifestyle that is intended to speak more to your peers than to subsidize an environmental commitment.

And if you can, please help out Merbear. Just click The "Save A…" link on the left..
Every week, Rochelle Wisoff Fields posts a photo, and challenges her readers to write 100 words (ish) inspired by the picture. This week's picture is from D. Lovering at 40 Again, and it's followed by a story exactly 100 words long, with a beginning, a middle and an end.
(I figured since it's my first time, I should follow the rules.)

They entered the canopy and the air smelled cleaner, the laughter of children around the square louder and more vibrant.
The man in the suit turned to their guide.
"Odd decoration for the entrance to a missile defense, isn't it?"
The guide smiled. "No entrance. This is it." He whipped out a handgun, pointing it at the man, who barely had time to cringe before the trigger was pulled.
The bullet dribbled from the barrel, bouncing harmlessly off the pavement.
"H-how…?" sputtered the man in the suit.
"The magic of the Maypole", answered the guide. "Don't you believe in magic?
All criticism is welcome. Hell, since you're reading, it's in your interest to help me write better. 😉

It's a sad state of affairs when our beloved Mount Rushmore racing presidents have to resort to violence to make the news.
From flickr member bullneck comes this disturbing photo of Tuesday night's presidents race, in which Abe and Teddy used a trip wire to take down Thomas Jefferson and George Washington. The composition was featured as the DCist photo of the day.
Mercifully, the violence took the night off last night as Teddy Roosevelt grabbed a big lead on his own in the 4th inning presidents race. Unfortunately, a penguin (or more precisely, somebody in a rally penguin costume) caught his eye along the right field line, and Teddy followed it into the stands, giving Abe Lincoln the window he needed to steal the victory once again.
Of Note: At the half-way mark of the first home season at Nationals Park, Abe Lincoln has matched his entire win total of last year, taking 22 of the first 41 presidents races and showing no signs of slowing down.

It was a beautiful dog day afternoon at Nationals Park as four-legged Nationals fans filled the Left Field Mezzanine seats for Saturday's sold-out Pups in the Park promotion.
Dogs were everywhere — streaming through the centerfield gates, running around the field before the first inning, and featured during all of the Nationals' usual between-inning entertainment segments from the Dance Cam to the
Fan of the Game.
So it was no surprise when Teddy Roosevelt entered the field for the 4th-inning presidents race with a dog on a leash.
But this was no ordinary dog. It was a giant Brian Griffin, the dog from The Family Guy. Brian ran along with Teddy to an early lead, but as they ran across the outfield warning track, Teddy let go
of the leash, and unleashed Brian on the other racing presidents.
As Teddy sprinted for the finish line, Brian ambushed George Washington, then pushed Thomas Jefferson to the ground; but Abe Lincoln managed to sidestep the big dog, and took off after Roosevelt, passing poor Teddy just before hitting the finish line.

Scanning Ebenezer's columns on a sleepy Sunday afternoon, my heavy eyelids were brought to attention by this line at the bottom of a column dated Feb. 24, 1934.
"News was received Friday last of the death of my sister, Maude Victoria, aged 25 years, at her home in Barbados, B.W.I. May the sod rest lightly on her."
I know about his brother, Noel (Alkins), also a newspaperman, who lived in Barbados; his mother, Malvina (Chase Alkins). And there was a niece, Carman Alkins, who I assumed was Noel's child. Sad that Maude Victoria (no last name was given) died so young.

CRANBERRY is a 10-year-old Labrador retriever mix. Cranberry is a local stray. This affectionate senior is in great shape for her age. She loves to walk and ride in the car. As she is older, she does not enjoy the company of other dogs and would be best suited as an only dog where she can be a pampered princess.
ELVIRA is a 1.5-year-old Labrador/border collie mix.
FRANCIS is a 2-year-old animal control dog. She is a real sweetheart and already a shelter favorite. She would much rather be in your lap than outside in the pen. She would also rather be in your lap in the car, but does ride nicely.
PRINCESS is a 1-year-old Pomeranian/American eskimo mix. She is a sweet little girl who needs structure in her life. When first meeting new people she is a little shy but quickly warms up. Princess loves to play with her favorite toys and enjoys spending time with her human friends. Princess needs some work with being potty trained. She is good with older children. She deserves a family that can give her the time to be a dog and learn right from wrong.
WEDNESDAY is a 1.5-year-old Labrador retriever/border collie mix.Wednesday and Elvira were found by animal control. Wednesday is very sweet and loves to cuddle. She loves to play fetch and go for long walks. Wednesday is great with other dogs and would be a good family dog.

She is a high energy girl that loves to run and go for walks. She is spayed and current on her rabies vaccine, just looking for a new forever home.
JILL is a 1-year-old hound mix, who is looking for an active family. She will make someone a very good walking/hiking partner, but she will always following her nose so a fenced in yard will definitely be a good thing for her. Jill is a smaller sized coonhound and she is very smart. Jill has been sharing an outdoor pen with her buddy Jenga. She has also gets along well with other dogs. Jill loves to play with soft toys and to sit atop her dog house. Even with all of her energy Jill is always up for a cuddle.
LEROY is a 5-month-old hound mix. He is a friendly energetic pup. He likes to sniff around and just be a hound. He hangs out with his pal Jackson and loves to play and run.
NIKE is a 4-year-old Labrador retriever mix. Nike is a really sweet boy. He is very shy and a quiet home that can work on socializing would be great for him.
SPROCKET is a 6-year-old boxer mix who was found stray. He had a broken leg and was very patient during the healing process. He's now healed and ready for a new home.
GENERAL LEE is an 8-year-old treeing Walker coonhound mix. He is a fun-loving, gentle soul. He came up to Baypath from Kentucky and has settled in nicely. Although a senior, General Lee is playful. Calmer than a rambunctious pup, he would do best in a quiet home that can shower this handsome fella with lots of love and attention. He LOVES to sleep in in the morning, but then he gets moving. Like most hounds that reside at Baypath at one time or another he can carry a tune with that bark of his. But again, like most hounds that leave Baypath, once he's out of this hectic environment we're sure he will be happy to sleep in with you, then ease into a mellow day. He is going to be getting dental surgery to fix up his teeth, but then he will be ready to roll.
JACKSON BLUE is an Australian cattle dog mix. Jackson Blue is super energetic and a wonderful little fella who will crack you up. If you are looking for a summertime beach buddy, Jackson is the boy for you.
BELLE is a 2-year-old American blue heeler mix. She is incredibly friendly and loving. She is a petite southern belle who had a rough start. Rounded up as part of a hoarding raid, Belle luckily was brought up here to find her forever home. She would do well with a family who has time to bond with her and take her to training. As a blue heeler, she'd be great at agility.
Greyhound Rescue of New England
The following dogs are available at Greyhound Rescue of N.E., Inc., Mendon. The shelter can be reached at 508-478-1617.
KAHLUA is new to the kennel and still being evaluated. She seems like a happy, sweet, spunky girl. She loves attention and going for walk. Probably no small animals.
RICK is new to the kennel but we can quickly see he's a sweet, docile, awesome guy. He's so very gentle and has wonderful eyes. He's just waiting patiently for his own family to love him. We'll cat test him shortly.
Nicknamed WIMPY, she's actually not all that wimpy in the kennel. She's outgoing and spunky here in her "known" world. She's reserved in new situations and needs a family with some patience to help her settle in. She's so pretty, rides well in the car, and walks well on a leash.
HERO is a big boy. He's so sweet, friendly and rambunctious. He'd do best with someone who can handle him and give him the exercise he needs. Because of his size, probably no small children and no small animals.
SPOCK is settling in nicely. He's such a mellow guy, and he loves meeting people. He's a little scruffy looking, but he'll shine soon.
HONEY is a cute little girl who is happy and friendly. She has many scars, she's not as pretty as some of the other girls at the kennel, but she's definitely the sweetest and her lovable personality makes her adorable.
JIMINY is a big, sweet guy. He's happy and loves leaning against you for pats. He's a little unsure when hugged, so he needs a patient person who will let him settle in and learn to trust.
COCO is 11 years old. She's not sure how she ended up homeless at this stage of her life, but she's pretty sad about it. She's not a greyhound — she's a little 40-lb. hound cross — but she's so friendly and personable, they say she's like a cat. She just loves to sit with you and be patted forever. She would do best in a quiet household, probably as an only pet at this time in her life.
Purr-fect Cat Shelter
Purr-fect Cat's felines can be viewed for adoption by appointment. The cats have been vaccinated, spayed or neutered and tested for FIV and FeLV. To arrange a time, please leave a message at the shelter message center at 508-533-5855. The shelter Web site is www.purrfectcatshelter.org.
MOOKIE is an adult male brown tiger. Mookie was an indoor cat who was suddenly thrown outside and his family refused to let him back indoors. He had no shelter and stood at the back door of their home crying and crying to get in. Our PCS volunteer watched in horror. She went to speak to them on several occasions and asked them to please surrender the cat to the shelter, which they finally did.
MURPH is an orange and white tiger. He is declawed and short-haired. Picked up by our animal control officer and unclaimed, Murph was then turned over to PCS. He is mellow, friendly and so loving. Murph is currently being treated for a corneal ulcer. His last recheck showed that the ulcer is almost completely healed. Other than the eye, which is resolving, he has been declared to be in excellent health. Murph is a great cat and would love a family to take him home.
SWEETIE is a young adult female. She is white with a few tiger patches. This beautiful 3-year-old cat was surrendered to the shelter by her owner who told us that it had been his girlfriend's cat and she "stuck" him with it when they broke up. He moved back in with his mother who told him the cat needed to go. An adult home would be good for this beautiful cat.
SAMBUCA is young black female. Sambuca is a petite cat, who in her very short life has been passed from one family to another and then to the shelter. The first family had a new baby and a new puppy and didn't want little Sambuca. They gave her to someone else who already had a cat. Sambuca should have been spayed before being introduced into a new household with another cat. She was then turned over to PCS and is doing very well. Sweet and a bit shy, this beautiful little cat with enormous round amber eyes would really appreciate an adult home.
ARTIE is a young brown tiger. Artie was picked up as a stray by our local Animal Control Officer. Artie is sweet, gentle and playful and should be a great addition to most homes.
HOPE is an adult short-haired black and white female. Poor Hope. She has lost all faith in mankind. Her former owner threw her out of the house, locked the door and put the house up for sale. This cat was terrified. She had always been an indoor cat, and it was a neighbor who called to inform us of the situation. Hope is a cat who needs a lot of reassurance and love. A quiet home with someone who will give her the time she needs to once again feel safe and secure so that she can become a loving, confident companion.
BENJI is an adult male. Benji was found stray and is very gentle, likes the company of other cats and is adjusting rather quickly to his new environment. A cat this handsome and mellow should have no trouble finding a special home. He is a true gentle giant.
WHISKERS is an adult black and white male. Whiskers was adopted from PCS a number of years ago. Recently, his elderly owner passed away and Whiskers went to live with a family member who also had a cat. It just didn't work out. After a period of sadness, Whiskers is starting to make the necessary adjustments to shelter life. He is a darling little cat and would be a great companion for an older person with no other pets.
LIBBY is a young adult, black and white female. Libby came to the shelter as an older feral kitten. She is still a bit tentative with people she doesn't know, however, she has made great strides and is allowing the volunteers to groom and touch her. Libby is very warm and affectionate with the other cats in her room. In order to feel secure, Libby would definitely need the companionship of another cat in the household.
PETE is an adult male. He is a short-haired brown tiger with white double paws. Poor Pete - He was turned over to our local animal control officer after his elderly owner passed away. After a period of sadness, Pete has now made the adjustments to life at the shelter and is doing extremely well. Pete has very unique markings on his face and body and also has extra toes on all four paws. Pete is a great cat with a disposition you can't help but love.
REX is an older black and white. He was one of two kittens living out of a Dumpster. Two days after the first kitten was trapped, Rex went into the trap and was taken to the vet. He has now settled in and is playing and doing very well. He doesn't like to be picked up but certainly enjoys his grooming sessions with the volunteers. Rex has very unique markings and would really enjoy the companionship of another cat.
ROSIE is a medium-haired calico. She is a very small and gentle calico who was surrendered to the shelter in deplorable condition. This little girl was so flea ridden that she had lost a great deal of her fur; she was full of sores and scabs on her skin and was also suffering from a skin infection. Even worse, the fleas were so bad that she had become anemic from all the blood that they took from her! Rosie would love to find her a home where she can live as the only pet in a quiet environment.

More than 2,000 websites—some operated by Fortune 500 companies, game sites, and retail outlets—are exposing system status information that can be used by attackers to compromise Web servers or customer accounts, a recent research project found.
Sites such as staples.com, cisco.com, and axtel.mx run the popular Apache webserver application with a feature known as server-status enabled, according to Daniel Cid, CTO of Web security firm Sucuri. He scanned more than 10 million websites and found 2,072 that left the status page wide open.
The pages display the number of processes running on a Web server, the status of various Web requests, and other data that can be invaluable to site administrators. But the same data—which can also include the full URL they're visiting—can also be helpful to attackers who want to compromise the customers or users visiting the site. Site admins have long been admonished to keep those pages from being visible to the outside world unless they have a good reason for doing otherwise and have thought through the decision carefully.
HD Moore, who is CSO of Rapid7 and chief architect of the Metasploit penetration testing software framework, spent 45 minutes retracing Cid's steps. Using a shell script he cobbled together, he found 1,774 of the top Alexa 100,000 websites exposed status pages through either the HTTP or SSL protocols. At least six of them exposed URLs with easily visible cleartext user names or passwords. Another dozen or so contained what appeared to be session IDs that are used to grant access to restricted parts of a website.
"[Session] ID's are bad, but cleartext passwords are worse, and in some cases these are passwords that would normally be sent over SSL," Moore told Ars. "But the server-status is leaking them back in cleartext. That's pretty awful."
In fairness to some of the administrators whose sites were identified by Cid, the exposure of the Apache status page is sometimes a conscious decision. As long as the security of a site has been designed from the ground up to account for this decision and there's a good reason for making the page publicly accessible, the site is probably OK. But it's unclear why anyone outside of Cisco Systems or Mexican ISP Axtel would need that information.
Given the ease of restricting that information to internal IP addresses, it's hard to see why any admin wouldn't. Indeed, many of the sites identified quickly reconfigured their sites shortly after Cid's report was published on Tuesday.

On my way to work yesterday, I hit a patch of snow on the highway and lost control of my vehicle. Usually when I start spinning around in snow or ice on a residential street, I get this weird zen feeling and just know that everything will be OK, and I never feel out of control. (Not that I do much spinning as I'm a cautious driver, but I've had a couple on really bad icy days.) I allow the car to complete the spin while tapping the break, and it's always OK, I've never hit anything. So let's just say I did not have that feeling yesterday when I start spinning on the highway with cars zooming past me.
I was pressing the gas instead of the break without even realizing it, panicked I was going to hit someone, and when I saw the median rushing at me I thought "Wow. I'm really going to hit that." And I did.
When it was all over, I was sitting on the highway, facing the oncoming traffic, and still moving forward because my foot was still pushing on the gas instead of the break. So I finally released the gas and stopped the car, and just stared at the traffic coming at me in shock.
I was thinking, wow, I didn't hit anyone! Wow, my car is still running! Wow, I'M STILL ALIVE! As soon as there was a break in the traffic I did a U-turn to get going in the right direction, amazed that I was still on my way to work after such a close call. I praised God and laughed with amazement and shock all the way to work, which was a bumpy ride due to the alignment of my car now being shot.
I was so shaken up when I was clocking in, I really didn't wonder why we were immediately called to the conference room. I thought maybe they were going to thank those who had braved the streets for not calling in due to the weather. Um, not so much. We were called in so they could tell us that the REC was closing.
It still hasn't really sunk in that the job I've had for almost nine years is going away. It's not a catastrophe for me, as I will be able to get another job within the postal service if I so desire (this isn't true for all the employees, unfortunately), but the future is still uncomfortably uncertain. But despite this sad news, I'm happy. I'm happy to be alive.
Funny how almost dying can put things in perspective. :D Thank you, Lord. I'm thankful to be alive.

Did you ever notice that when you clean up one of your own drawings, it loses some guts?
This is a problem all artists face, but it's even a bigger problem in animation because each drawing passes through so many different artists' hands.
Especially in this day and age when everything is so departmentalized.
If it's hard for an artist to clean up his own style without losing something, imagine how hard it would be for someone in another country who is seeing your style (after it's already been traced a few times) for the first time and really doesn't care anyway.
In animation, an idea gets copied over and over again before it actually makes it to the screen. The natural order of life seems to be that copies are inferior to the original, so that the more something gets copied, the crappier it gets.
And unless your studio has a system designed to combat this problem, you are going to end up with bland cartoons, where none of the artists who contributed to it recognizes his or her own work.
Here are 4 stages in an animation production that all use the same poses. Many studios have more stages than this. Each stage tones down the previous stage.
For the last 40 years or so, we have been plagued with an assembly line system based on a misunderstanding of the term "on-model".
Ever since I got into the business, I realized that no matter what you drew in your scenes for a cartoon, it would never end up looking remotely like that in the final cartoon. The system is geared to erase all the artists' specific and original contributions to the film.
Even the few artists I knew that actually tried to put some life in the cartoons would always be disappointed when we screened the finished cartoons. It was as if we never worked on the cartoons in the first place. As if it had all been done by a crappy computer.
All our work had been smoothed out, planed down, straightened out. Most young cartoonists come into the business all eager and optimistic that they are going to be the ones to breathe some life into the art again. But after a year or 2 of experiencing this blanderization process, they quickly lose their ambition, sell out to the man or go insane.
No matter how talented or skilled you are, you need a system that is geared to the creative process and understands practical realities. I have always been plagued with this problem of how to get creativity to happen in an environment that is completely designed against it.
That's why I am so analytical - why I have to figure out solutions to so many problems. I would rather just get a bunch of creative folks together and do what we do naturally, but there was no place on earth designed for that when I started. No Looney Tunes or MGM or Fleischer studio that has a logical production system.
I had to recreate one and then pass it on to all the studios that worked with mine. Most other studios - service studios that do the animation and ink and paint have been trained by the American or Canadian assembly line studios and cannot bring themselves to change their ways to accommodate originality and fun in their work-even when you send them the finished drawings.
They are so used to blandness that they don't believe that you actually want them to use what you sent them, and they take it upon themselves to fix your work for you. That was happening to Spumco on The Ripping Friends, so I had to put manuals together to show our service studios how to use our drawings without completely toning them down or changing them.
Unfortunately, they never gave our manuals to the artists, so we got blanderized despite our efforts to save them money and time.
Maybe you can benefit from some of the tips in this "maintaining guts" manual. If you ever work for me, you will have this same problem - to not tone down what you are handed from the previous department - which is not an easy thing to do.
For months, I kept asking the supervisors in Canada on the Ripping Friends whether they were using our layout drawings or not, and both studios would constantly assure me that they were. When they finally sent me xeroxes of their layouts we saw that they didn't use any of our drawings and had redrawn everything from scratch. Then I sent this manual and called them to go over it page by page.
We were looking at these closeups of Crag that Jim Smith drew and I cleaned up, and the supervisor said: "Wow. You really did want us to use your drawings exactly!"
Then I asked why they didn't after saying they were.
"We weren't doing it because your and Jim Smith's drawings were 'off-model'."
Jim and I designed the show, but our drawings were off-model I found out.
I have plenty more of these manuals about maintaining guts if you are interested.

Townhouse and Condo
Years ago Townhouses and condominiums were
almost nonexistent in the United States. Today, one out of
every four home sales is a townhome or condominium.
The reasons they have become a very popular alternative to
single family homes are very simple:
Features: The Townhouse/Condominium lifestyle offers
such amenities as a swimming pool, playground, club house,
balcony, deck, in-unit washer/dryers, individually
controlled air conditioning and heating systems, attached
garages, basements, and in some newer developments, the
latest state of the art kitchens. Most Townhomes and Condos
are just a few minutes' drive or walk from theaters,
restaurants, museums and department stores.
Security: Security in a Townhouse or Condominium
allows for peace-of-mind. Most Townhome and Condominium
communities offer a well-lit and safe living experience.
Affordability: Townhomes and Condominiums are
popular because of their affordability. Typically, the price
per square feet of a townhouse or condominium is lower than
a single family home because the townhouse or condominium
does not have the land that a single family home offers. The
cost efficiencies of townhomes and condominium can save
owners thousands of dollars over the long term. Repairs to
the facility, upkeep of the grounds and other maintenance
expenses are shared by all owners and the cost is spread
throughout the community association.
Maintenance: The maintenance features of townhouses
and condominiums are really one of their best aspects. Most
of them have a 24-hour maintenance staff, which can
routinely attend to any emergency that occurs. Also in some
communities when you are away for an extended period of time
and there is a problem within your unit, the community
management office can resolve some problems.
What is a Townhouse or
purchasing a townhouse or condominium, you are buying the
interior space of an individual unit, and share an undivided
interest in the ownership of the common areas with other owners
in the complex. Common areas may include areas such as exterior
grounds, hallways and recreational facilities. Your membership
to the community homeowners' association becomes automatic with
your purchase. Typically these associations charge annual dues
which often times are paid on a monthly schedule.
So what is a condominium or townhouse? It's a cooperative form of
ownership in which homeowners "join with each other on a
democratic basis to own or control the housing and/or
related community facilities in which they live," defines
the National Association of Housing Cooperatives.
A condominium/townhouse owner actually owns part of the building and
land (their own unit and a pro-rata share of the common
property,) while in a "co-op" the owner owns a part interest
in a cooperative that operates the building and land.
A homeowner's association manages and maintains the common
areas and dues can also pay for some or all utility bills,
trash removal, snow shoveling, window-cleaning, and whatever
else the HOA members agree upon.
The nation's largest builders are changing their business
models to build more multi-family housing for purchase. D R
Horton built only single-family detached homes until 1996.
Today, condos and townhomes are over 17 percent of the
company's business, and it expects to build more in the
future, according to a Wall Street Journal report in
December 2005.
Buying a Townhouse or Condominium
You begin your investigation about the community by
carefully reviewing the CC&R's (Covenants, Conditions, and
Restrictions), Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. These
documents cover the rules and regulations governing the
community and will answer many of your questions about the
Another important issue to consider is the resale value in
the future. Some factors affecting resale value are: demand
for particular models (number of bedrooms and baths),
upgrades, the location of the unit within the complex (End
unit versus interior unit, backs to woods, near the
playground, golf course or on a pond), location of the
complex (accessibility to major roads and public
transportation), the school system and the taxes.
Condos/Townhouses: A lifestyle choice
that continues to gain popularity
There are about 15 single-family
dwellings to every condo, but buyers are pouring
into condominiums, presumably for the lock-and-go,
low-maintenance lifestyle they promote.
Celia Chen, an economist for Economy.com told American
Demographics that condominium prices have now shot above
those of single-family homes. Clearly, people aren't buying them because they
are cheaper. It's a lifestyle choice, and pundits believe
that they'll only become more popular.
From 2005 to 2015, American Demographics projects that all
owner-occupied households of ages 55 to 74 will rise 36
percent, an increase of over 8 million older homeowners.
According to a 2005 Del Webb survey, 45 percent of "active
adults" (those aged 59-70) plan to move upon retirement. The
number one reason they cite for moving is that they "want a
home with less maintenance."
Why Prices of Identical Townhomes May Vary
How is it possible that two nearly identical townhomes or
condos located a few blocks from one another can vary so
radically in price (often by more than $10,000)?
Disregarding for a moment the interior improvements or
upgrades that sets one townhome apart from another, let us
consider exterior factors that influence the price. For
example, townhomes backing up to main streets that lead in
and out of a neighborhood might be less desirable and could
appreciate more slowly than those separated from primary
thoroughfares. Within a community, some factors affecting
the price are: the location of the unit within the complex
(End unit vs. interior unit, backs to woods, near a
playground, golf course or on a pond) and the taxes. Also
demand for particular models or demand for townhomes in a
particular community, location of the complex (accessibility
to major roads and public transportation) may affect the
Existing townhomes may differ radically in price for another
reason: while one homeowner wants to sell, another may have
to sell. It is easier to negotiate with the latter because
he or she must vacate for one reason or another. The former
will, of course, be more difficult to negotiate.
The purchase of a home is a significant financial (to say
nothing of sentimental) investment. Remember to take all of
these facts into consideration as well as your own personal
preferences. To ensure you have all the information you need
to make a good choice and for details about your particular
community and model, please Contact Us,

Recipe from Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Hermé
(makes 20-24 Éclairs)
• Cream Puff Dough (see below for recipe), fresh and still warm
1) Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Divide the oven into thirds by
positioning the racks in the upper and lower half of the oven. Line two baking sheets with
waxed or parchment paper.
2) Fill a large pastry bag fitted with a 2/3 (2cm) plain tip nozzle with the warm cream puff dough.
Pipe the dough onto the baking sheets in long, 4 to 41/2 inches (about 11 cm) chubby fingers.
Leave about 2 inches (5 cm) space in between each dough strip to allow them room to puff.
The dough should give you enough to pipe 20-24 éclairs.
3) Slide both the baking sheets into the oven and bake for 7 minutes. After the 7 minutes, slip the
handle of a wooden spoon into the door to keep in ajar. When the éclairs have been in the
oven for a total of 12 minutes, rotate the sheets top to bottom and front to back. Continue
baking for a further 8 minutes or until the éclairs are puffed, golden and firm. The total baking
time should be approximately 20 minutes.
1) The éclairs can be kept in a cool, dry place for several hours before filling.
Assembling the éclairs:
• Chocolate glaze (see below for recipe)
• Chocolate pastry cream (see below for recipe)
1) Slice the éclairs horizontally, using a serrated knife and a gently sawing motion. Set aside the
bottoms and place the tops on a rack over a piece of parchment paper.
2) The glaze should be barely warm to the touch (between 95 – 104 degrees F or 35 – 40
degrees C, as measured on an instant read thermometer). Spread the glaze over the tops of
the éclairs using a metal icing spatula. Allow the tops to set and in the meantime fill the
bottoms with the pastry cream.
3) Pipe or spoon the pastry cream into the bottoms of the éclairs. Make sure you fill the bottoms
with enough cream to mound above the pastry. Place the glazed tops onto the pastry cream
and wriggle gently to settle them.
1) If you have chilled your chocolate glaze, reheat by placing it in a bowl over simmering water,
stirring it gently with a wooden spoon. Do not stir too vigorously as you do not want to create
2) The éclairs should be served as soon as they have been filled.
Pierre Hermé's Cream Puff Dough
Recipe from Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Hermé
(makes 20-24 Éclairs)
• ½ cup (125g) whole milk
• ½ cup (125g) water
• 1 stick (4 ounces; 115g) unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces
• ¼ teaspoon sugar
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (140g) all-purpose flour
• 5 large eggs, at room temperature
1) In a heavy bottomed medium saucepan, bring the milk, water, butter, sugar and salt to the
2) Once the mixture is at a rolling boil, add all of the flour at once, reduce the heat to medium
and start to stir the mixture vigorously with a wooden spoon. The dough comes together very
quickly. Do not worry if a slight crust forms at the bottom of the pan, it's supposed to. You
need to carry on stirring for a further 2-3 minutes to dry the dough. After this time the dough
will be very soft and smooth.
3) Transfer the dough into a bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or using your
handmixer or if you still have the energy, continue by hand. Add the eggs one at a time,
beating after each egg has been added to incorporate it into the dough.
You will notice that after you have added the first egg, the dough will separate, once again do
not worry. As you keep working the dough, it will come back all together again by the time you
have added the third egg. In the end the dough should be thick and shiny and when lifted it
should fall back into the bowl in a ribbon.
4) The dough should be still warm. It is now ready to be used for the éclairs as directed above.
1) Once the dough is made you need to shape it immediately.
2) You can pipe the dough and the freeze it. Simply pipe the dough onto parchment-lined baking
sheets and slide the sheets into the freezer. Once the dough is completely frozen, transfer the
piped shapes into freezer bags. They can be kept in the freezer for up to a month.
Chocolate Glaze
Recipe from Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Hermé
(makes 1 cup or 300g)
• 1/3 cup (80g) heavy cream
• 3½ oz (100g) bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
• 4 tsp (20 g) unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces, at room temperature
• 7 tbsp (110 g) Chocolate Sauce (recipe below), warm or at room temperature
1)In a small saucepan, bring the heavy cream to a boil. Remove from the heat and slowly begin to add the chocolate, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula.
2) Stirring gently, stir in the butter, piece by piece followed by the chocolate sauce.
1) If the chocolate glaze is too cool (i.e. not liquid enough) you may heat it briefly in the microwave or over a double boiler. A double boiler is basically a bowl sitting over (not touching) simmering water.
2) It is best to glaze the eclairs after the glaze is made, but if you are pressed for time, you can make the glaze a couple days ahead of time, store it in the fridge and bring it up to the proper temperature (95 to 104 F) when ready to glaze.
Chocolate Sauce
Recipe from Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Hermé
(makes 1½ cups or 525 g)
• 4½ oz (130 g) bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
• 1 cup (250 g) water
• ½ cup (125 g) crème fraîche, or heavy cream
• 1/3 cup (70 g) sugar
1) Place all the ingredients into a heavy‐bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil, making sure to stir constantly. Then reduce the heat to low and continue stirring with a wooden spoon until the sauce thickens.
2) It may take 10‐15 minutes for the sauce to thicken, but you will know when it is done when it coats the back of your spoon.
- 1 1/4 cups whole milk
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup strained black raspberry puree
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons Chambord
In a small saucepan, warm the milk over low heat until it is just hot enough to steam. While the milk is warming, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, flour, and cornstarch until the mixture is completely smooth.
Once the milk is steaming, add half of it, whisking constantly, to the egg mixture. Add the milk and eggs back into the hot milk, continue stirring, and heat it for 1-2 minutes, until the custard reaches 170F on a digital thermometer and is very thick. Remove from the heat, stir in the black raspberry puree, vanilla extract, and Chambord. Chill the cream before filling pastry.
This black raspberry pastry cream recipe makes approximately 2 cups flavored cream.
