"What is Ready.gov all about?
Terrorists are working to obtain biological, chemical, nuclear and radiological weapons and the threat of an attack is very real. Here at the Department of Homeland Security, throughout the federal government, and at organizations across America we are working hard to strengthen our Nation's security. Whenever possible, we want to stop terrorist attacks before they happen. All Americans should begin a process of learning about potential threats so we are better prepared to react during an attack. While there is no way to predict what will happen, or what your personal circumstances will be, there are simple things you can do now to prepare yourself and your loved ones."

"Earles' history is the stuff of legends, particularly to his fans. They know how Steve, out of nowheresville Schertz, Texas, son of an air traffic controller, dropped out of 8th grade to go on the road, and lie on ratty Austin couches with his Texas troubadour heroes. Townes Van Zandt, whom Steve called "a good teacher and bad role model" once had his prize student tie him to a tree, in an unsuccessful self-invention to stop the older man's drinking. They know, too, how Steve went to Nashville, where he wrote a bunch of songs, raised much hell, and, in 1986, made Guitar Town, a legitimately great record, a latter day Grapes of Wrath for the pick-up truck set, still a most eloquent expression of lefty redneck/populist complaint."

It is our mission as artists to combat the forces that set this chain in motion, and to ensure that the Radioactive Future will not be the destiny of humankind.

When it was founded by Dan Wolf, Ed Fancher and Norman Mailer in the fall of 1955, The Village Voice introduced free-form, high-spirited and passionate journalism into the public discourse. As the nation's first and largest alternative newsweekly, the Voice maintains the same tradition of no-holds barred reporting and criticism it first embraced when it began publishing more than forty years ago.

The recipient of three Pulitzer prizes, the George Polk Award, Front Page Awards, Deadline Club Awards and many others, the Voice has earned a reputation for its groundbreaking investigations of New York City politics, and as the premier expert on New York's downtown scene. Writing and reporting on local and national politics, with opinionated arts, culture, music, dance, film and theater reviews, Web dispatches and comprehensive entertainment listings, the Voice is the authoritative source on all that New York has to offer. Add classifieds unrivaled by any other New York publication, the Voice is New York's most influential must-read alternative newspaper.

Dozens of diverse, talented and idiosyncratic writers, novelists, playwrights, poets, and political activists—lured by the journalistic freedom that non-mainstream status affords—have filled the Voice's pages over the years, cementing its standing as "a writer's paper." Among those who made the paper their romping ground in the past were Ezra Pound, Henry Miller, Katherine Anne Porter, James Baldwin, e.e. cummings, Ted Hoagland, Tom Stoppard, Lorraine Hansberry, Jerry Tallmer, Allen Ginsberg, Murray Kempton, I.F. Stone, Pete Hamill, and Roger Wilkins. Former Editors in Chief have included Dan Wolf, Clay Felker, Tom Morgan, Marianne Partridge, David Schneiderman, Robert Friedman, Marty Gottlieb, Jonathan Larsen, and Karen Durbin.
