I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

- NEWS_141025_02.JPG: Benjamin Bradlee
1921-2004
Legendary Editor of The Washington Post
"The role of the press in a free society is to find out the truth and print it."
-- Benjamin Bradlee, 1990
Benjamin Bradlee, the editor who led The Washington Post through some of the most momentous stories of the 20th century, has died. He was 93.
During his 23 years at the helm of the Post, Bradlee oversaw the newspaper's history-making coverage of Watergate, the scandal that led to President Richard M. Nixon's resignation in 1974. The Post was awarded the Pulitzer Prize gold medal for public service, journalism's highest honor, for its Watergate coverage.
Under Bradlee, the Post joined The New York Times in 1971 in publishing stories based on the Pentagon Papers, a top-secret report revealing that the government had lied about progress in the Vietnam War. The battle over publication resulted in a major First Amendment victory in the US Supreme Court.
In 2013, Bradlee received the President Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor.

- NEWS_141213_01.JPG: Michel du Cille
1956-2014
Pulitzer Prize-Winning Washington Post Photographer
"Michel had been witness to history and to human struggle and, as always, his photographs constituted storytelling of uncommon power."
-- Washington Post publisher Frederick J. Ryan, Jr.
Michel du Cille, a Washington Post photojournalist and three-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize for his powerful images of human struggle, died of an apparent heart attack while covering the Ebola crisis in Liberia. He was 58.
Du Cille spent weeks in West Africa this year dedicated to exposing the human suffering caused by the deadly Ebola outbreak, pictured above. He collapsed there while returning on foot from a reporting assignment in a rural village in Liberia.
During his career, he reported from some of the world's most dangerous places, including Afghanistan, where he came under fire in a region controlled by the Taliban in 2013.
While at The Miami Herald, he won the Pulitzer twice, for his 1987 coverage of the crack epidemic and for his photos of a volcano eruption in Colombia in 1985. In 2007, he shared the Pulitzer Prize for public service -- journalism's most prestigious award -- for his photographs of veterans being treated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
