It's "Angle of Repose Friday" on The After Show. You know, the angle in which a granular substance stays in place on a slope. Makes sense to us.
Silicon Valley Venture Capital Billionaire and the co founder of Sun Microsystems, Vinod Khosla, who purchased property at Martin's Beach in 2008, is now being sued by The Surfrider Foundation for denying access to the public beach by painting over a billboard welcoming people to the beach, putting up a locked gate in front of the only road and hiring armed guards to keep people out, all in violation of the 1972 California Coastal Commission Act; A West Virginia school covered up sexual assaults because the perpetrators are related to the district's School Board members; and By a 60-36 spread, a Gallup Poll shows those surveyed believe that Supreme Court justices were more likely to be carrying out a personal or political agenda than working to render a fair and impartial judgment.
On The Last Half, Justice reminds listeners that when Pat Tillman gave up his professional football career to join the Army Rangers in 2002, he became an instant symbol of patriotic fervor and unflinching duty, but the truth about Pat Tillman is far more complex, and ultimately far more heroic.

Question: Who is your audience? What are you here for?
Answer: Tribal Alliances, Heart-felt Convictions, Passionate Reason, Random Abandon, Sustainable Civility and a kiss; to comfort the sad and the mad Ones; the Ones roaming the International section of the American Supermarket at night; or roaming the neglected streets looking for an angry malaprop to sink their teeth into; the Ones who seek without seeking and learn as much as they teach; the Ones who embrace and kiss and embrace again; the Ones who sing the song of the city and the ballads of the forest; the Ones who chant the rhythm of the sea and hum the melody of the desert; the Ones who sing the prayer of Her name and Her name is the World. Yes, those are the Ones. -- JP

"Many heroes lived before Agamemnon, but they are all unmourned, and consigned to oblivion, because they had no bard to sing their praises."

God fashioned the ship of the world carefully.
With the infinite skill of an All-Master
Made He the hull and the sails,
Held He the rudder
Ready for adjustment.
Erect stood He, scanning His work proudly.
Then -- at fateful time -- a wrong called,
And God turned, heeding.
Lo, the ship, at this opportunity, slipped slyly,
Making cunning noiseless travel down the ways.
So that, forever rudderless, it went upon the seas
Going ridiculous voyages,
Making quaint progress,
Turning as with serious purpose
Before stupid winds.
And there were many in the sky
Who laughed at this thing.
-- Stephen Crane
