1. 1980 maroon Oldsmobile 98 (a beautiful beast that made me the best damn parallel-parker in the world)
2. 1991 black Ford Probe (loved it, even though it was two sizes too small for me)
3. 2002 blue Saturn Vue (joined the Saturn cult, but couldn’t drink the Kool-Aid)
4. 2009 silver Subaru Forrester (current ride I bought last year)

Read about the redesign and let us know what you think. We’re pretty excited (especially about the responsive design). Check it out!

Compiling (and, in some cases, scanning) images in an effort to redesign my online resume/portfolio. Above: The first issue of The Rake (I art directed for a year and a half or so) in which I transformed Carl Pohlad into King Tut.

And here’s the Fox News card. Notice Fox ahead of the ABC, NBC and CBS sleighs; MSNBC and CNN aren’t even racing.

Bullying gay and lesbian kids: How a school district became a suicide contagion area
Justin Aaberg (pictured above) hanged himself in his room in 2010 following incidents of bullying.
At least six other Anoka-Hennepin School District students have committed suicide, and friends and parents of bullied victims say adults at the schools knew about harassment but did nothing. Read Beth Hawkins’ investigation.
A very powerful story by one of the best journalists in the Twin Cities.

![“[Obama]’s been willing to engage during his presidency in a massive redistribution of wealth and in the politics of an Occupy Wall Street envy to achieve his purposes. Contrast that with the Tenth Amendment — I’m sorry — the Tenth Commandment, which teaches that we should not covet what belongs to our neighbor.
