	Katrina Silber - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Katrina Silber was a minor recurring character on the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
		Katrina's spirit was understandably angry with Warren and suggested that she should have killed him before he killed her.
		What makes her different from the other strong women in the Buffy Universe is that she does not have supernatural powers with which to enforce her strength, and meets her death in an act of domestic violence.

	The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Silber May Be Seeking Dem State Party Chair
		Silber, who lost Tuesday's gubernatorial race by three percentage points to Republican William F. Weld '66, told reporters at a press conference last Thursday that he was "going to try to have as much influence as I can" in Massachusetts politics.
		And although Silber managed to win the Democratic primary by capturing a large number of Independent votes, his support among Democrats was less than overwhelming during the primary campaign: Many in the partypreferred the more liberal Evelyn F. Murphy andFrancis X. Bellotti.
		Silber is slated to return to his post onJanuary I, but university administrators refusedto comment on the possibility that Silber maychoose to pursue other interests rather thanreturn to his post.

	The Harvard Crimson :: News :: Despite Prodding, a Volcanic Silber Fails to Erupt
		Silber has not yet filed his past year's income tax returns, although the deadline was last week.
		Although Silber parried the accusation, claiming that he may even be entitled to a refund on his federal taxes, his response was "obviously not as convincing as filing the income tax return," said Linsky.
		Silber was clearly anticipating Weld's line of attack, building a "preemptive" defense early in the debate.

		Silber resumed the journey he began all those decades ago at Peninsula, a progressive private school in Menlo Park.
		Silber's sons, Web site designers, put together a site for him, giving him a chance to post photographs he had taken since his years at Peninsula School.
		Silber struggles with the quintessential question faced by all artists: How does one present the world with an idea, a musical statement, an image that is fresh and has something new to say?

	I Was Made To Love You
		His girlfriend Katrina still doesn’t know what the rush is. If they had planned to leave his parents’ place so quickly, they might as well have just gone to visit her sister the way she’d wanted.
		Katrina is not happy to see this girl, but Warren ignores her.
		Katrina wants to know what they are talking about, but Warren tells her to go wait in the kitchen.

	Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Season 6 - Episode 12
		The stooges are being served champagne by Katrina, dressed in a sexy maid's outfit.
		It's interesting that this is the hardest relationship for Buffy to commit to while at the same time being the most honest and open of her relationships (she deceives her friends, but she and Spike do not deceive each other).
		It's interesting to note the parallels between Warren's use of the cerebral dampener on Katrina turning her into a sex slave and Spike using the Buffybot built by Warren in Intervention.

	TCS Daily - The Post-Katrina Jump at the Pump -- Unavoidable?
		Of course, weather-induced damage to energy infrastructure is unavoidable, but Katrina's impact on oil and refined products did not have to be so severe, and there are lessons to be learned for the energy debate to come.
		In fact, in the weeks before Katrina hit, some relatively minor instances of unexpected downtime at a few US refiners were more than enough to cause noticeable bump ups in the price of both oil and finished products.
		Hurricane Katrina struck us at the worst place and time and revealed the vulnerability of the nation's energy infrastructure.

	Hurricane Katrina Donations Deliver for CFC Charities (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Storm damage to coastal areas of Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, as well as the subsequent breach of the New Orleans levee system, forced tens of thousands of Americans to evacuate their homes and seek refuge in other parts of the United States.
		The second and final distribution was made on November 21, 2005—$158,486.98 was distributed to 70 charities.
		Once the campaign officially began, donors received a second opportunity to be an everyday hero to the many worthy charitable organizations that depend on their generous contributions to continue providing their services throughout the year.

	Notablog: Katrina
		After a week of watching, listening, and reading about one of the most painful episodes in the history of American life, I don't think there is much I can say that hasn't already been said, better.
		I remember Hurricane Camille, but the human and financial costs of Hurricane Katrina are likely to be the worst ever recorded in the United States.
		In the perfect storm of its first few days, the response to Katrina has revealed too the utter failure of local, state, and federal officials to grapple with crisis.

	CNN.com - Transcripts
		FRANKEN (voice-over): The president's reassurances as Hurricane Katrina roared closer to shore were in sharp contrast to the warnings he was getting.
		And more criticism about the handling of Hurricane Katrina, this after the reemergence of footage and new transcripts of FEMA briefings in the days leading up to and right after the disaster.
		If 9/11 was a failure of imagination, and Katrina was a failure of initiative, this process is a failure of judgment.

		If Silber won after the club had endorsed Weld,"it would be very bad," Howe said, explaining thata vengeful Silber would be unlikely to help clubmembers further their political careers.

	My Shingle: The Somber Side of Solo Practice
		I know that frequently I'm regarded as an avid advocate (some of my blogging buddies would even call me a cheerleader) for solo practice, focusing primarily on the benefits of going solo rather than the risks or drawbacks.
		But in the wake of Katrina, I'm reminded of the somber side of solo practice: how many of us solos operate at the edge, with little margin for error.
		Perhaps the most serious impact of Katrina on solos is the potential permanent loss of clients.

	Katrina Kids Suffering? by Nicole Gelinas
		Six months after Katrina (when researchers did their interviews), the Katrina children studied suffered from high rates of depression or anxiety, with many parents reporting that kids had acquired behavioral problems since Katrina.
		What FEMA should do is raze its FEMA-villes and follow Houston’s path in helping Katrina evacuees (the city took in nearly 200,000 from neighboring Louisiana): award temporary vouchers to displaced families so that they can rent apartments and get on with their lives, with new jobs and new schools and new doctors for their children.
		Thanks to Houston, tens of thousands of Katrina evacuees, including many poor evacuees unaccustomed to life in a thriving city, are receiving temporary government aid—and are in positions to take over the responsibility to recover their own lives from a momentous disaster.

	FindLaw's Writ - Newman: Justice Frankfurter's "Junior Partner"
		On the jacket of Norman Silber's newly published, engrossing book With All Deliberate Speed is a picture of Justice Felix Frankfurter, sitting at his desk in 1961, signing the relevant papers before swearing in Philip Elman as a member of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
		Silber has adapted the transcripts of a series of interviews he conducted for the Columbia Oral History Project in the early 1980s into a seamless memoir written in Elman's voice -- and Silber has also added extensive, helpful interpretive commentary.
		Roger K. Newman teaches at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism and is the author of Hugo Black: A Biography.

	TCS Daily - Katrina and the Political Waves
		Whether the death toll from Katrina exceeds that killed by the terrorists four years ago may not be known for a while, though the numbers that are currently being thrown about in the media suggest that it may be three or four or five times as great.
		One thing is already certain, however: Katrina will have a profound impact on the way Americans think about their government, just as 9/11 did -- only Katrina will almost certainly move public opinion in the opposite direction from the way 9/11 moved it -- with consequences that are, for the moment, foreseeable.
		As a result, Katrina has virtually forced Americans to question the competence, foresight, and good judgment of those in positions of governmental authority and trust.

		And Brookline-bred Mike Wallace returns to Boston this week to sign copies of his new book, ''Between You and Me."

		This would seem to give the lie to typical ideological critiques of the gubernatorial candidates, both from the left (they were insufficiently liberal) and from the right (they were too liberal to appeal to moderates).
		Democratic candidates for governor in the 1990s neither mobilized the liberal base nor made as strong inroads among the moderates as the party's presidential standard-bearers did.
		With the exception of Silber's relatively strong showing among Massachusetts conservatives, the gubernatorial candidates of the '90s failed to win as big a following as the presidential candidates did across the ideological spectrum.
