William "Billy" Mitchell (December 29, 1879 – February 19, 1936) was a United States Army general who is regarded as the father of the United States Air Force.[1]
Mitchell served in France during World War I and, by the conflict's end, commanded all American air combat units in that country. After the war, he was appointed deputy director of the Air Service and began advocating increased investment in air power, believing that this would prove vital in future wars. He argued particularly for the ability ofbombers to sink battleships and organized a series of bombing runs against stationary ships designed to test the idea.
He antagonized many people in the Army with his arguments and criticism and, in 1925, was returned from appointment as a brigadier general to his permanent rank of Colonel. Later that year, he was court-martialed forinsubordination after accusing Army and Navy leaders of an "almost treasonable administration of the national defense"[2] for investing in battleships instead of aircraft carriers. He resigned from the service shortly afterward.
Mitchell received many honors following his death, including a commission by President Franklin D. Roosevelt as a Major General. He is also the only individual after whom a type of American military aircraft, the North American B-25 Mitchell, is named.
Andrew Johnson (December 29, 1808 – July 31, 1875) was the 17th President of the United States, serving from 1865 to 1869. Johnson became president as he was Vice President at the time of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination. A Democrat who ran with Lincoln on the National Union ticket, Johnson came to office as the Civil War concluded. The new president favored quick restoration of the seceded states to the Union. His plans did not give protection to the former slaves, and he came into conflict with the Republican-dominated Congress, culminating in his impeachment by the House of Representatives. The first American president to be impeached, he was acquitted in the Senate by one vote.
Johnson was born in poverty in Raleigh, North Carolina. Apprenticed as a tailor, he worked in several frontier towns before settling in Greeneville, Tennessee. He served as alderman and mayor there before being elected to theTennessee House of Representatives in 1835. After brief service in the Tennessee Senate, Johnson was elected to the federal House of Representatives in 1843, where he served five two-year terms. He became Governor of Tennessee for four years, and was elected by the legislature to the Senate in 1857. In his congressional service, he sought passage of the Homestead Bill, which was enacted soon after he left his Senate seat in 1862.
Mary Tyler Moore (born December 29, 1936) is an American actress, primarily known for her roles in television sitcoms. Moore is best known for The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970–77), in which she starred as Mary Richards, a 30-something single woman who worked as a local news producer in Minneapolis, and for her earlier role as Laura Petrie on The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961–66). She also appeared in a number of films, most notably 1967's Thoroughly Modern Millie and 1980's Ordinary People, in which she played a role that was very different from the television characters she had portrayed, and for which she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress.
Moore has been active in charity work and various political causes, particularly the issues of animal rights and diabetes mellitus type 1. She was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes early in the run of The Mary Tyler Moore Show.[1] She also dealt with alcoholism, which she wrote about in her first of two memoirs. In May 2011, she underwent elective brain surgery to remove a benign meningioma.[2]

As the night falls and the moon rises, we'll take a journey this week far beneath the law library into the catacombs where the bones of lesser lawyers line the walls and guttering torches light the way. That's right, it's time to enter the legal crypts for another monthly edition of Freaky Friday here on Lawyers & Liquor, where we talk about the morbid, morose, paranormal, or unsettling parts of the law and legal history. So settle in and sit a spell as we pull down a dusty tome of dark legal, and illegal, knowledge to drop on you. Especially this time, as we talk about the ghosts of America's past, both figurative and literal, of those denied justice, sentenced to death, and executed by the whims of the mob and the animus of illogical hatred.
But first, a warning:
Today's post will contain graphic historical images and content. There is no nudity, but it will be disturbing. There will be dead people. There will be people killed for their skin color. Feel free to avoid the post this month. I'll be back next month with another one that's more light-hearted.
A Story: The Lynching of Laura Nelson
O, don't kill my baby and my son,
O , don't kill my baby and my son.
You can stretch my neck on that old river bridge,
But don't kill my baby and my son.
I'll start you off slow. What you're seeing above you is a picture of the 1911 lynching of Laura Nelson and her son, L.D., in Oklahoma. L.D. and Lauara were accused of stealing a cow, and then of shooting and killing a sheriff's deputy that came to investigate the crime. Her husband, who pled guilty to larceny, was safely sent to the state prison, but Laura, L.D., and Laura's infant child were all sent to the local jail to await trial as they protested their innocence to the murder charge now levied against them.
That is until the night of May 24, 1911, a whole 22 days after they were initially arrested, when a mob of 12-40 men stormed the Okemeh, Oklahoma jail in the middle of the night, forcefully removed Laura, her son, and her baby from the cells, took them to a bridge over the North Canadian River, placed nooses around their necks…and dropped them. Without trial. Without conviction. With no evidence of their guilt or innocence, no jury, no attorney. Laura and L.D. Nelson, and likely the poor baby still suckling at his mother's breast, were sentenced to death by the anger of a mob convinced of their guilt, and not a court of law.
You can see the results above.
By the way, that mob on the bridge? It's likely (though not certain) it contains a man named Charley, a respected local businessman, politician, and District Court Clerk. The event would leave a scar on his family as well, as his son would never forget the incident and would refuse to speak of it. His son, a musician, would write two songs about the lynching of Laura and L.D. Nelson, which he would never personally record in anyway. It's from one of those songs, "Don't Kill My Baby and My Son," that the lyrics from this section are taken.
The singer, whose father may have very well tightened the noose around the neck of Laura Nelson as she pled for the lives of her children?
That would be Woody Guthrie, seminal folk singer and rights activist.
Lynching: An American Tradition
Webster's Dictionary defines "Lynch" as a verb meaning "to put to death (as by hanging) by mob action without legal approval or permission."
Technically, a lynching occurs anytime a mob of people gather and administer justice on their own. "Mob justice," by the way, is just another fucking way to say "murdering someone because we think they're wrong." Very few cases of mob justice end without a death, and they are never extensions of the state or the judicial process. They are murder, even when the person that is lynched has been convicted and sentenced to death, because they are not sentenced to "a terrible beating and then death without a chance to appeal at the hands of a howling mob bent on dragging out every ounce of pain they can before ending it." The convicted is sentenced to death at the hands of the state, after the exhaustion of all appeals and all opportunities to avail themselves of complete due process.
So here's the general layout for a lynching: A person is accused of a crime, many times one that is reprehensible to the people in the community. The wheels of justice aren't moving fast enough, and the mob begins to form. The accused, who is in custody, can't be easily snatched and a trial will take a long time or, in some cases, it's apparent the accused will not be convicted. The mob then raids the jail, sometimes with the complicity of the lawmen, and takes the accused from their cell. The accused is marched to a place, often brutally beaten, and then torturously executed (often by hanging). The need for a trial is obviated, and in many cases no members of the mob are ever arrested or prosecuted, thus giving the murder the unofficial imprimatur of legitimacy.
Wash, rinse, repeat. There are variations, like when the accused was convicted first, but that's the gist of it.
Except for the part that lynchings were almost always directed towards specific minorities accused of crimes, especially after military occupation of the South ended after Reconstruction and the federal government began to take a "hands-off" approach. A hands off approach that, from 1882 until roughly 1959 resulted in approximately 4,733 lynchings.
Here's three of those. And these weren't from the South. These were from Minnesota.
A Story: The Duluth Three
They're selling postcards of the hanging, painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors, the circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner, they've got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker, the other is in his pants
And the riot squad they're restless, they need somewhere to go
As Lady and I look out tonight, from Desolation Row
In 1920, the circus came to Duluth, Minnesota.
The John Robinson Circus was a sight to behold as it marched in a free parade through the streets of Duluth, drawing the attention of all of the bystanders before making its way to a small, clear spot just outside of town to set up the tent for a one night only show. Having seen the parade, the acrobats, the clowns, and the animals, 19 year old Irene Tusken and her 18 year old boyfriend James Sullivan decided to go that night. Afterwards they stayed at the circus, watching the roustabouts break down the tent and load materials, getting the circus ready to move on to the next town, getting home late.
After getting home, James Sullivan, not Irene Tusken, stated that a group of six African-American roustabouts had "robbed them both" and then proceeded to rape Irene Tusken. Immediately the police sprung into action, rounding up the roustabouts despite the fact a medical examination of Tusken showed no evidence of sexual assault, and lining them up on the railroad tracks outside of town. At that point Tusken was told to identify the men that attacked her in the presence of a group of police officers and people from town, and chose nine men.
Rumors ran rampant as the men were taken to the city jail, including one that Tusken had died or was dying from her non-existent injuries, and the populace of Duluth became incensed. Slowly, wielding bricks, sticks, iron bars, and various other weapons, a mob of 1,000 to 10,000 people gathered outside of the jail. The air simmered with hatred and anger until final whatever dam had been holding them back broke and the crowd surged into the jail, ripping three of the men, Elias Clayton, Elmer Jackson, and Isaac McGhie, from their jail cells.
You can see what happened next in the picture above.
In the fallout from Duluth, only three men were convicted of rioting, and none of murder.
Meanwhile, in Superior, Wisconsin, as the news of the Duluth Lynching broke across the nation, the police chief said "We are going to run all idle negroes out of Superior and they're going to stay out."
Mob Justice: Some Stains Don't Wash Out
Frankly, the concept of mob justice isn't new in America. In San Francisco in the mid-1800's, Vigilance Committees were the unofficial law of the boom town, finding who they deemed to be criminals and punishing them in whatever manner the Committee found appropriate. They arose where the people thought there was a failure of the law to do its job, or where no law existed or was weak. They were common enough on the American frontier as the country expanded, where the authorities were too understaffed (or too uncaring) to stop the howling mobs that were determined to act as judge, jury, and executioner.
But people are driven by their baser instincts, and where you find mob justice you often find racism. In San Francisco, for example, Vigilance Committees were known to regularly accuse, attack, and horribly punish Chinese immigrants and workers. In the Southern California area, it was the Mexicans that had the ill fortune to still live in that area after it had been ceded by Mexico to the United States. And in the East and Midwest, in cities both Northern and Southern, it was the African American who lived with the risk of some social infraction or unfounded accusation bringing their life to a slow and torturous end at the hands of the mob.
Justice, it seemed, was whatever the majority determined it to be, and to hell with the process of the courts and the risk that a person who was so clearly guilty would go free. In some cases, the act may not even have been a crime, or have happened. It was well-known, and accepted, that making a false accusation was a viable way to deflect blame from the actual (normally white) perpetrator or to force a black businessman and competitor to pack up in the middle of the night, fleeing for his life.
Those ghosts still haunt us today. When I was a child, there were people still alive who had witnessed lynchings in my home state and elsewhere. They may have been children at the time, but they remembered the almost carnival-like atmosphere, the yelling, the shouting, and at the end the pride the mob had in seeing justice done.
And very, very rarely were these people ever brought to justice themselves. Even when they were, no howling mob dragged them unconvicted from their cells to be strung up. The perpetrators of these murders were given full due process of law, and generally were acquitted (whether it be due to racism or lack of evidence) or convicted of much lesser penalties.
The actions of the mobs that proliferated and caused the deaths of over 4,000 men, women, and children in extrajudicial murders, all in the name of the perverted justice of the mob, remain a stain on our legal, and national, history. One that, as Lady MacBeth found out, won't come clean.
And sometimes one that can still be heard in the very courthouse that failed to see justice done.
The Ghosts of Clarendon, Arkansas
John and Mabel Orr weren't a match made in heaven. They fought constantly, sometimes physically, with each other. John, a former actor, and Mabel, a volunteer and fixture in the society scene of Clarendon, were known to have violent spats that raged throughout their home. In 1898 Arkansas, however, this wasn't something the neighborhood got involved in. It was just "how they were."
Until the night a bullet crashed through the window and killed John Orr in his kitchen.
Quickly suspicion fell on Mabel Orr…and five hired, African American servants (as well as their maid, described as a "Jewess") for planning and participating in the murder of John Orr. All were arrested, with the exception of the maid who had fled, and placed in the Monroe County jail to await trial. With Mabel Orr at the time was her three-year old daughter, reminiscent of Laura Nelson.
The mob in town repeatedly came to the jail, and in a rare show of conscience, the Southern court stepped in repeatedly to prevent the mob from taking the accused from their cells. At one point, as the Daily Sentinel stated, the judge assured the howling mob justice would be swift.
"[E]ach time the crowd dispersed on the promise of the officers to rush the trial without a change of venue, or any delay in the proceedings whatever."
The problem is apparent, in that the court was stating it would not give any consideration to the accused in planning the trial, or even consider changing the venue out of the county where there was a howling mob calling for them to die already. An impartial jury trial, indeed.
Even with these abrogations of justice, however, it was not enough for the mob, which, while the accused were still awaiting trial, stormed the courthouse and seized the African American servants from their cells. Notably they bypassed Ms. Orr herself, who had been provided with poison by, allegedly, a sympathetic jailer and lay already dying in her bed with her daughter beside her. The servants were dragged to a sawmill near the river, and, after a beating, hanged until dead by the mob asking for vengeance. Their bodies were then buried there.
Ms. Orr died peacefully in her cell, unlike Laura Nelson. And unlike Laura Nelson's baby, her own toddler was spared death. But Ms. Orr, of course, was merely a murderess. Not a "colored" murderess.
A coroner's inquest would determine the servants died at the hands of "persons unknown" to the court, and nobody from the mob would ever be prosecuted. Despite the fact that Clarendon was not a booming metropolis, and certainly people knew the faces of those that had tightened the noose around the necks of the servants. Justice had been done, but only that of a vengeful mob out for blood, and not those of the court.
There is an epitaph to this tale, however. See, the Monroe County Courthouse in Clarendon is reputed to be haunted by orbs and unearthly screams, sometimes attributed to Ms. Orr and sometimes to the servants dragged from their jail cells. If it is, then perhaps it has attached to the site itself, given that the courthouse today was built in 1911 on the site of its four predecessors.
But for once, the story here isn't one of the ghost itself, but how it was created. Because the ghosts of this era, an era in American history that has never fully passed, haunts us still today. In a daily docket you can watch the faces of the past come into the present, and hear the howling of the mob still in the back of your mind.
And that, my friends, is the true ghost of lynching, which haunts our courts still today: the baying of a vengeful mob, and the crying and pleading of a person for the protection of justice. Justice that has been denied.

Street art has come a long way since its humble beginnings and now giant Swedish furniture retailer IKEA loves street art too! The beginning of April saw the start of the IKEA Art Event 2015, with the slogan 'bring the street art home', a sure sign that street art is now firmly placed at the forefront of our contemporary commercial society. Swedish furniture retailer IKEA has become famous for its affordable and functional designs and with IKEA Art Event 2015, they wanted to present art that was more accessible and affordable for the public, moving away from the idea that art is only for the wealthy and to be seen in galleries and museums. IKEA Art Event 2015 brings together the works of 12 street artists from around the world, each creating unique street art posters. To find out how street art has reached this point, read 20th Century & the Rise of Graffiti and Graffiti Hits the 21st Century.
IKEA Art Event 2015 is a celebration of the contemporary street art scene, the company believing that street art is the most democratic art form that exists. IKEA creative leader Henrik Most also picked street art as the theme for the IKEA Art Event 2015 as he felt that both shared a rebellious nature, street art viewed widely as a subculture, even though it has become an integral part of contemporary society and that IKEA is a friendly rebel company. Twelve international street artists have designed images for a limited collection of street art posters available from IKEA during the IKEA Art Event 2015.
To make street art affordable to everyone, IKEA has decided to fuse street art with posters, producing a limited collection of street art posters by the 12 street artists. The limited collection of street art posters offer a wide spectrum of artistic styles, IKEA working closely with the street artists to make each set of posters as individual and unique as possible. Careful consideration was given to printing techniques for the individual works of the street artists, plus various effects used on the street art posters, such as 3D, lacquers, gloss and one that glows in the dark. The street art posters in the IKEA Art Event 2015 each measure 100cm x 100cm and are priced at $15.00, an affordable way to have some nice street art on your wall. You may also be interested in events such as Affordable Art Fair Battersea and Start an Art Collection with $500.
A number of well know street artists have created street art posters for the IKEA Art Event 2015 including Crash aka John Matos who has created a distinctly New York flavored graffiti image and street art duo NEVERCREW, who have produced Message in a Bottle based on their 'living structures' theme. Serbian duo Sobekcis have crafted a distinctive artwork based on abstract and figurative elements while French street artists Koralie and Supakitch have teamed up with their characters Supanimal and Geishka in a remarkable and beautiful poster. Hua Tunan offers a stunning eagle poster and Dutch street artist Erosie presents Horror Vacui, about the overload of imagery in contemporary society. Polish street artist M-city has created a stunning carousel street art poster, while Eko Nugroho presents an unusual character based on the theme of tolerance. Nuria Mora delivers one of her fine abstract images with further works by ELLE from USA, T-Freak from Brazil and Carolina Falkholt aka Blue, from Sweden.

Bed bugs are here to stay
The bed bug menace is on the rise. This prompted scientists to inquire why they are becoming resistant to chemicals. In the first genetic study of the pest, they found it generates higher levels of enzymes that can detoxify poisons.
Lab tests showed bedbugs can survive pesticide levels a thousand times greater than a decade ago. The study can help identify genes linked to pesticide resistance and devise control methods. PLoS One, January 19
Cow boost to biofuels
The digestion process of cows maligned for contributing to global warming could lead to cheaper production of biofuels. Researchers have identified the genes of microbes responsible for the breakdown of plant material in cow's digestive tract. These microbes can replace the expensive processing of biomass to produce sugar. Biofuel production has also been linked to global warming. Science, January 28
New entrant to algae
Algae now have an extended family. Biologists have identified a new family of algae that inhabits both ocean and freshwaters. These algae may prove crucial to forecasting the effects of climate change. Algae are known to absorb up to 50 per cent of the world's carbon. Named rappemonads, they exist in habitats with temperatures ranging from 11°C to 26°C, like in north Pacific. The first clue to the existence of the microscopic life form showed up in an unexplained strand of DNA in sea water samples collected in the 1990s by University of Hawaii researcher Michael Rappe. The algae has been named after him. PNAS, January 4
Metabolic pathway tweaked
It is not so easy for microbes living in salty waters to survive the harsh conditions. They follow a longer pathway than usual to synthesise the building blocks of their cells. Traditionally, microbes follow two pathways to build their cells—glyoxylate cycle and ethylmalonyl-COA pathway.
But the microbes that thrive in salty settings like the Dead Sea use methylaspartate cycle. One of the cycle's intermediate compounds limits the effects of osmosis and helps in water retention.
The process came to light when it was found that the microbe, Haloarcula marismortui, did not use any of the two pathways as it lacked required enzymes. Science, January 21
See the unseen
Despite a range of microscopy techniques several important intracellular processes remain unseen. Now a new device, electrochemical impedance microscopy, would help peer at processes like cell adhesion and cell death, and also provide better imaging than existing techniques do. The device combines two existing tools, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to provide images of cells and intracellular processes. EIS helps detect various biological substances like DNA and bacteria. In it an AC current is applied on an electrode, which records changes in molecular structure, but they are of low quality. SPR imaging, an optical detection process, amplifies the EIS to provide high resolution images. Nature Chemistry, January 23
How veggies fight cancer
It is well known that broccoli, cauliflower and their cruciferous cousins can fight cancer, but how was unknown. Now researchers have solved the mystery.
The vegetables have a protein, isothiocyanate, that supresses defective p53 gene in human cells.
These defective genes are responsible for abnormal cell growth— hallmark of cancer. p53 gene plays a key role in keeping human cells healthy. The study could lead to new strategies for prevention and treatment of cancer.
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, January 11
Drug escort
Doctors will now be able to deliver drugs to the target location more precisely, thanks to a new magnetic pill system. Scientists have created gelatin capsules containing miniature magnets that can be moved around or held in place within the gastrointestinal tract by an external device to ensure maximum absorption into the bloodstream. This could help identify areas of the intestine that are most absorbent of different drugs and enhance treatment options for diseases such as cancer and diabetes. PNAS, January 21
Shared memory
Computers have separate volatile and involatile memory. Involatile memory (USBS and flash drives) allows us to save information for extended periods of time, while volatile memory (RAM) requires constant source of power to do so and is faster. Now researchers have developed a unified device, called double floating-gate field effect transistor, which combines the advantages of both the memories.
It stores data as electric charge and, unlike involatile memory that uses single floating gate to store the charge for long-term data retention, utilises two gates to store data and give high transfer speeds to read data. This can change the way we store information. IEEE's Computer, February
Nano power to save energy
A new nanomaterial could pave the way to capture and recycle waste heat better. The material converts a record 14 per cent of the waste heat to usable electric energy. It is made by putting nanocrystals of rock salt into lead telluride. This is not the first attempt of nanoscale inclusion in bulk material to improve waste heat conversion performance of lead telluride. This material does better by using nanostructures to reduce electron scattering responsible for low conversion efficiency. Current devices that convert waste heat into electricity have efficiency between 5-10 per cent. Nature Chemistry, January 16
Tracing the trickle
Researchers have produced the first map outlining the ease of water flow through the planet's porous surface rocks and sediments. They confirmed that permeability is controlled by the type of rock in the area. Areas with sands and gravels will have the highest permeability and regions with shales will have very low permeability.
The map can help improve water resource management and provide insights into geological processes like earthquakes and erosion. The team used worldwide lithology (rock type) results from University of Hamburg and Utrecht University in the Netherlands to map permeability to depths of 100 metres.

While working under the hot Florida sun for his mentor and Godfather in the masonry industry, he acquired his passion for the trade. He went on to study Construction Management at Florida International University, work with renowned developers, and restoration companies.

This was taken on Monday, which started out with an amazing sunrise (for a later post), then had these clouds in the early part of the day, then some really interesting other clouds later, then an amazing thunderstorm cloud at sunset (at which point my damaged camera lens completely quit working). It was an incredible day!

The First DoctorWho Played Him: William Hartnell
When: 1963-1966
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: A ring with a blue stone
Reason for Regeneration: His old body was wearing a bit thin.
Three Recommended Stories: The Aztecs, The Dalek Invasion of Earth, The War Machines
The one that started it all! A deceptively doddering and tetchy old man that was more than a bit dangerous – although he mellowed a bit after his granddaughter Susan left the TARDIS, leaving him more emotionally vulnerable.
The Second DoctorWho Played Him: Patrick Troughton
When: 1966-1969
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: A recorder (a kind of flute)
Reason for Regeneration: A forced transformation as part of a sentence imposed by the Time Lords (so basically an execution)
Three Recommended Stories: The Tomb of the Cybermen, The Enemy of the World, The War Games
A comical fellow on the surface hiding a far more serious, calculating mind, this impish fellow or "cosmic hobo" was a passionate defender of the innocent and the beginning of the Doctor we're much more familiar with today.
The Third DoctorWho Played Him: Jon Pertwee
When: 1970-1974
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: A sprightly yellow roadster named "Bessie"
Reason for Regeneration: His body was devastated by radiation.
Three Recommended Stories: Doctor Who and the Silurians, The Daemons, The Green Death
Earthbound for most of his life, this Doctor favored cars, fancy clothes, and some fine wine and cheese, as well as a well-placed Venusian karate chop. Allied with the paramilitary organization UNIT as their Scientific Advisor, he was a fatherly figure and a deeply moral man with an "old young face."
The Fourth DoctorWho Played Him: Tom Baker
When: 1974-1981
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: A multi-colored (later mostly burgundy) scarf that surely should trip him up…and sometimes did; a bag of jelly babies
Reason for Regeneration: He fell from the top of a radar tower in a battle with the Master.
Three Recommended Stories: Genesis of the Daleks, Pyramids of Mars, City of Death
Still the definitive Doctor for many, this long-running incarnation was the perfect combination of goofiness and gravitas, with an iconic Bohemian image, booming voice, and endearing devotion to his traveling companions.
The Fifth DoctorWho Played Him: Peter Davison
When: 1981-1984
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: A sprig of celery pinned to the lapel of his cricket-y ensemble
Reason for Regeneration: He was infected with Spectrox toxaemia and used the antidote to save his similarly afflicted companion Peri, sacrificing his own life.
Three Recommended Stories: Earthshock, Snakedance, The Caves of Androzani
No, not "Davidson" (to paraphrase Commander Data from another venerable sci-fi franchise, one is his name; the other is not). This energetic, breathless incarnation was more vulnerable than most, and one of the most human. Despite appearing young with a "pleasant open face," he was of course an old being in a youthful form.
The Sixth DoctorWho Played Him: Colin Baker
When: 1984-1986
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: An array of cat badges on the ugliest frock coat you've ever seen
Reason for Regeneration: Based only on the TV show and no subsequent novels or audio dramas? He hit his head. Sigh.
Three Recommended Stories: Vengeance on Varos, The Two Doctors, Revelation of the Daleks
At first harder to like than many incarnations with a coat of many colors that could cause serious eye strain, the Sixth Doctor was equally heroic and caring but exhibited far less patience and actively fought with his long-time companion Peri. In audio adventures this often-erratic incarnation has truly come into his own.
The Seventh DoctorWho Played Him: Sylvester McCoy
When: 1987-1996
Memorable Gadget/Item of Clothing: An umbrella with a red question mark handle coordinating with (at least early on) an ugly sweater covered in similar question marks
Reason for Regeneration: He stepped out of his TARDIS and into a San Francisco gang gunfight, but it was the surgical procedure afterward that really did him in.
Three Recommended Stories: Remembrance of the Daleks, The Curse of Fenric, Survival
At first the most buffoonish incarnation to date, this Doctor darkened into a master (no, not him) manipulator playing a massive game of chess across time and space. He was…Time's Champion (in the novels, anyway)!

Information about the Dockless bikeshare program and the Biking in DC Guide are available as downloads at the bottom of this page
Our ANC is comprised of 21% seniors (ANC average is 11%), and 22% children (ANC average 17%) which highlights the need for a greater awareness of services, programs and activities for both groups. The Department of Parks and Recreation hired Ms. Brittany Miller to be the dedicated Senior Services Coordinator for the Chevy Chase Community Center and she can be contacted directly for program information. AroundTown DC also offers an event directory for ages 60 and up.
This issue category includes: city services, public transportation and utilities.

Local community facilities including the Chevy Chase Community Center, Chevy Chase Neighborhood Library, Chevy Chase Recreation Center, Lafayette Recreation Center, and public schools are constantly being discussed for improvements. The D.C. Council approved the FY 2019 budget bill on May 29, 2018, which includes $19 million for modernization of the Chevy Chase Community Center.

Although Chevy Chase is considered to be relatively safe, http://crimemap.dc.gov/CrimeMapSearch.aspx it doesn't mean that crime prevention isn't an important issue to our residents and businesses. DC's Neighborhood Watch program is also a key component to this crime prevention effort whereby neighbors look out for each other's safety.

The Mom Test (Asking Good Questions (Important Questions (You NEED to…
The Mom Test
Asking Good Questions
The measure of usefulnes of an early customer conversation is whether it gives us concrete facts about our customer's lives and world views.
The mom test:
Talk about their life instead of your idea (everything around it)
Ask about specifics in the past instead of generics or opinions about the future
Talk less and listen more
Bad Questions:
Do you think it's a good idea?
Would you buy a product which did x?
How much would you pay for x?
Would you pay x for a product which did y?
Good Questions:
What would your dream product do?
Why do you bother?
What are the implications of that?
Talk me through the last time that happened
Talk me through your workflow
What else have you tried?
How are you dealing with it now?
Where does the money come from?
Who else should I talk to?
Is there anything else I should have asked?
Important Questions
You NEED to search for the world-rocking scary questions. The best way to find them is by an experiment. Imagine that the company has failed and ask why that happened. Then imagine it has had a huge success and ask what had to be true to get there. Find ways to learn from those critical pieces. You can tell it's important when its answer could completely change (or disprove) your business. When you talk to customers you should be asking at least one question which has the potential to destroy your business
Startups tend to have multiple
failure points
, but like to focus over the most interesting ones and ignore the others. Don't do that! You'll miss important questions.
Product Risk
"can I build it? Can I grow it?" -
Customer/market risk
"Do they want it? Will they pay me? Are there lots of them?"
Some companies have only product risk (gaming companies) while other market. If you have heavy product risk, you're not going to be able to prove as much of your business through conversations. These can give you a starting point, but you'll have to start building earlier and with less certainty.
Learning that your beliefs are wrong is frustrating, but it's progress. It's bringing you closer to the truth of a real problem and a good market. LOVE BAD NEWS.
The classic error in response to an apathetic signal is to step up your game and pitch until they say something nice. Try to understand the nature of their apathy. Is the problem not that big of a deal? are they fundamentally different from your ideal customers? Are they worn out and skeptical from hearing too many pitches? Are they just tired today?
Look before you zoom in!
Everyone has problems that don't care enough to solve. If you zoom in too quickly you'll confuse your learnings because you're biasing their answers. You think you are validating assumptions, but really you just lead them there.
To solve it try to understand how important that topic is! "What are your big problems right now?" Anchor the generics to the past and actions that happened to get out the juice.
Another way is to ask what are they doing to solve that problem. Have they looked into other options? If not than they don't care so much about it...
When you don't know if the problem is a must solve or a nice to have, you can get some clarity by these
cost/value questions:
How seriously do you take your blog?
Do you make money from it? - Have you tried making more money from it?
How much time do you spend on it each week?
Do you have any major aspirations for your blog?
Which tools and services do you use it for?
What are you already doing to improve this?
What are the 3 big things you're trying to fix or improve right now?
Prepare a list of the 3 most important things you want to learn from any given type of person/stakeholder. Update the list as your questions change. In this way you won't stay in the comfort area.
Find Conversations
Going to them
Cold calls
Catch the random opportunities
Find a good excuse to sneak a question in
Immerse yourself in where they are
Landing Pages
Bring them to you
Organise meetups
Do speeches and teach
Blog about the industry
Get clever
Create warm intros
7 degrees of separation. Ask around, everyone knows someone
Industry Advisors
Cash in favours
Frame the meeting. Make sure to include these characteristics
Avoiding Bad Data
With the exception of industry experts who have built very similar businesses, opinions are worthless. You want facts and commitments, not compliments. The best way to escape the misinformation of compliments is to avoid them completely by not mentioning your idea. If they happen anyway, you need to deflect the compliment and get on with the business of gathering facts and commitments.
Everybody tries to make you feel good, hence give you compliments.
In the meeting
I'm glad you like it
Back at the office
That meeting went really well
We're getting a lot of positive feedbacks
Everybody I've talked to loves the idea
If you catch yourself or your teammates saying something like this, try to get specific. Why did that person like the idea? How much money would it save him? How would it fit into his life? What else has he tried? If you don't know, then you've got a compliment instead of real data.
Pitching is part of all this. When you start saying "No, I don't think you get it" or "Yes, but it also does this" you slip into pitch mode. Just apologise and get back to their issues. If they really want to listen about it just say that you'll tell them at the end of the meeting or loop them for an early demo, you just want to talk a bit more about their stuff before biasing them with your idea.
These comes in 3 shapes:
Generic claims (I usually, I always, I never)
Future tense promises (I would, I will)
Hypothetical maybes (I might, I could)
To avoid these anchor the questions to specifics in the past. Ask when it last happened or for them to talk you through it. Ask how they solved it and what else they tried.
Fluff inducing questions:
Do you ever...
What do you usually...
Do you think...
Might you
Could you see yourself
These are not necessary bad, sometimes you can use them to transition into more concrete questions.
While using generics, people describe themselves as who they want to be, not who they actually are. You need to get specific to bring out the edge cases.
Sometimes when you talk the person might switch to your side of the table. They are excited and see the potential, so they'll start listing tons of ideas and feature requests. Write them down, but don't rush. Startups are about focusing and executing on a single, scalable idea rather than jumping on every one that crosses your desk.
Take a moment and dig into the motivations behind the request.
When you hear a request, it's your job to understand the motivations which led to it. You do that by digging around the question to find the root cause. Why do they bother doing it this way? Why do they want the feature? How are they currently coping without the feature? DIG. The same kind of thing should be done for
Any strong emotion is worth exploring.
Dig into features:
Why do you want that?
What would that let you do?
How are you coping without it?
Do you think we should push back the launch to add that feature, or is it something we could add later?
How would that fit into your day?
Dig into emotions:
Tell me more about that
That seems to really bug you, I bet ther's a story here
What makes it so awful?
Why haven't you been able to fix this already?
You seem pretty excited about that, is it a big deal?
Commitment and Advancement
Commitments are in form of:
The more they give up the more you can take seriously what they're saying.

More RSS Discovery, Dundee
Posted in Dundee, Museums at 20:00 on 6 March 2019
The Discovery's crew even had their own newspaper to keep their spirits up. A bound version is in the Discovery Point Museum:-
As is the ships's harmonium – also good for keeping up morale I should think. It's behind glass so difficult to photograph. Its cast iron pedals say "mouse-proof" on them.
Brass struts:-
Salt boxes. The salt absorbed any water that entered between the inner and outer hull and between the frames, so helping preserve the timber:-
Panting beams plaque. These beams go from one side of the ship to the other, preventing the ship's hull from flexing when under way and helped in resisting crushing by the ice:-


text: There by Kronin Wanderforth There in the darkness I reached for you and missed we two alone different sides of the same personality a person only we together could become a vision of perfection Lost Together we were one Better than each seperate half and I saw that image Seconds before it shattered in the darkness Only you could understand my anger And I became angry so you would understand me. How could two people be so different and yet the same? Together in the emptyness of life our dreams our loss the treasure of our tears refracting light making a million tiny perfect rainbows in your eyes better than dreams reality drugs happy in the truth that was you love for me in the lie that was my love for you And in the end that lie shattered the reality into the illusion Drew pictures of white on black black on black I blinked my tears away and saw your head shatter into a million pieces "I don't understand you. You say you don't trust me and yet you make love to me." How was I to know that I was short of my expectations? I took a breath sure that I would explode Felt the night air on my skin Focused on a distant star and saw my future there I named her happy And for the first time in a long time I smiled Three words I love you from a name an ocean away What is an ocean? Perhaps there, a galaxy away orbiting a star which seems so tiny here lives the one The one who knows how to say I love you without the words the uncertainty the nervousness without conditions to make me happy always And would it be so wrong of me to hope he stayed there? To leave me here in my own unsteady emotions Dancing the dance of the mad Drawing pictures of pain in my skin To find the one, here who is not perfect Except to become perfect when blended with my own imperfections The one who loves me only for what I am and not in spite of it. Who wouldn't have me any other way. For to love without conditions is to love without seeing the one you love So here I lie alone in the darkness A piece of hand a piece of knee One eye I pull myself together Open my eyes recieve the light see the shapes Open my heart recieve the love see the colors

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a neat thing, but it has to adhere to its own rules. If a thing happened in Iron Man, then it has to be acknowledged down the line. Of course, there are certain things that get tossed out or slightly ret-conned, but for the most part, the universe remains largely intact within its own canon.
But if you wanted to throw out the canon and have some fun, what then? The answer seems to be coming to Disney+. /Film reports that Disney is developing an animated series based on the What If comics. Per /Film:
The idea is that they could potentially have some of the main actors from the live-action Marvel Cinematic Universe movies reprise their roles in the animated series, which would imagine alternate possibilities from another dimension. The time commitment for voice acting is a whole lot less than for live-action productions, which could accommodate some of the biggest Marvel talent. The series would function as an anthology, just like the comic book series, with each episode tackling a different premise.
That's a really fun idea, especially when you have concepts like "What If Janes Foster Had Found the Hammer of Thor?" or "What If Spider-Man Had Never Become a Crimefighter?" (he apparently becomes a late-night talk show host and has a cape. This is a concept that's bursting with ideas, and the anthology format should really allow for some unbridled creativity. One episode could be an outlandish comedy and another could be a Twilight Zone-esque thriller. You get to see the characters you enjoy, but you don't have to unwind how it might affect the rest of the MCU. Instead, it's just a good way to tell stories involving Marvel characters, and within the realm of animation, you really don't have any limits on what can be imagined or done with the stories.
What If? now joins the Loki series that's been confirmed by Disney as well the live-action miniseries for Falcon and Winter Soldier and another for Vision and Scarlet Witch. I wouldn't be surprised if we get more details on all of these series later this year at either Comic-Con or D23.

without a car is the same as nothing.
Nothing can demonstrate more that you'we in USA than a car. The car is the symbol of the United States and americans are pround of it. This is so true that if a government wanna have a peaceful country, the gas price should be stable, and it is! A gallon is not expensive and american cars are great.
If you are planning a trip to USA or already live in US and don't have a car, you should start looking for car hire USA. As I told you before, gas price is not expensive, neither a car hire. So it's better to choose the right company. A few dollars will be a poor economy. Choose a car rental company that is in the market for a good time and that users trust. I'll not recommend comapanies here, I'll just alert you to choose the right one and... enjoy!

Hop Nosh Tangerine IPA Released Today
As far as I know this is the only citrus enhanced IPA made locally. It has a bright orange color, combined with a big, fluffy white head that is extremely sturdy and hardly vanishes. The nose is juicy with notes of lemon and orange meat. These aromas pretty much dominate. The taste starts with malt cake but transitions quickly into dry hop territory. The beer turns out to be much more diverse than it had been on the nose, offering a nice blend of citrus hop bitterness and subtle fruitiness from the tangerine puree. You get all of the fruitiness with it being at all sweet like a German Radler. The end has a bit of pine and it finishes semi dry with tangerine peel bitterness. This isn't bitter hop water with citrus juice mixed in. It's all IPA with tangerine accents. I'm amazed by how well the whole package works.
Be careful this is am extremely crushable beer. It's 7.3% ABV will sneak up on you, so don't loose yourself in the fruitiness. If your a fan of Grapefruit Sculpin, I think you'll find this to be a much more natural interpretation. An excellent new offering from Uinta.

Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up.
While there is no "special" prayer of faith that has healing power, the foundation of healing is the power of trusting and believing an All Powerful and Faithful God. It's only through trusting and belief in Jesus Christ who gave His life and defeated sin, sickness, and even death, that the Power of God is applied to our prayers of faith.
Effective prayer always depends upon faith and the willingness to trust God's faithfulness no matter what. We must have faith to approach God in prayer. "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him." (Hebrews 11:6 NKJV)
Faith is the way by which believers journey through the world. Our faith must be focused on Jesus Christ and His death and resurrection. Jesus Christ, Himself, is life. "Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6 NKJV)
As believers it is imperative that we pray not only for our own needs, but certainly for the needs of others. As believers, we must value others. "Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others." (Philippians 2:4 NKJV) The needs of others are not so different than our own. And sometimes one of those needs is healing from sickness and disease.
Healing is defined as "Bringing about of a state of physical or spiritual health". Healing is often seen as the image of salvation through Jesus Christ. Miraculous healing is by Jesus Christ. "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed." (Luke 4:18 NKJV)
Friend, Jesus Christ's authority over all things is given by God the Father. "The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand." (John 3:35 NKJV) Jesus has authority over nature, over sin, over sickness, over evil and even over death. The Name of Jesus is above every name. Jesus is Lord of all creation. Jesus is our Savior. Jesus is our Redeemer. Jesus is our Interceder. Jesus is the promised deliverer who sets His people free. And Jesus is our Healer. Effective, fervent, believing prayer moves the hand of God. When we pray for others as we pray for our own needs, let us put complete trust and faith in God that He not only hears our prayers, but will bring about an answer that is above and beyond our comprehension. Because Scripture says, "Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen." (Ephesians 3:20-21 NKJV)
Holy and Almighty God, thank You that prayers of faith move Your heart and Your hand. Thank You that we can trust that You will hear and answer our prayers. Holy Lord, I declare that my faith and trust is in You and You are over all things including sickness, disease, and even death. In Jesus Name. AMEN
Don't believe me, believe God!

Hi All,
I recently picked up a bottle of mineral oil (SamaN brand "Classic Oil & Conditioner For Butcher Block") for finishing a couple of bbq brushes.
I was surprised to find the oil milky-white in colour, as I was expecting it to be completely clear. I would have assumed that there is an additive causing the cloudiness, except that the bottle claims to be "100% pure and natural mineral oil".
It does seem to go on fine and there is nothing left on the cloth or wood after application (other than the expected oily surface) – no white flakes or anything.
I thought maybe it was due to the oil being in a cool garage. Bringing it inside and letting it get to room temperature overnight, however, made no difference.
This is my first time using this product (and mineral oil in general). Is the look of this oil abnormal? Can I still expect it to be food-safe?

We've been back in Edinburgh for a month since our almost-a-month-long stay in Finland with my parents, but there are still a few photos from the trip I want to share – the last post from there for sure! On our last full day we decided to do a little day trip with my parents, so we headed East to Strömfors Iron Mill.
The first thing we did was to visit the on-site museum. Lana immediately spotted a couple of toy rats that had been placed in the museum and it took a bit of convincing to get her to leave them behind when we left…
Such beautiful red brick walls and light.
The mill dates back to the 16th century and the golden age of the Swedish iron industry. (Finland was a part of Sweden at that time.)
Behind the museum you'll find a very Finnish landscape with forest and a lake (and a snake swimming in the water!)
It was also the perfect place for a few preggo shots.
There's a pretty wooden church nearby, but it wasn't open unfortunately. Next to the church there was a memorial site for local soldiers who didn't make it home from the second World War.
Matthew and I had been to the cinema the night before to see Dunkirk, so it all felt a bit more "real" than what it would've otherwise.
Now the old mill area is a place filled with local artisan shops and restaurants – and the weekend we visited there happened to be a wee festival on as well. A nice atmosphere!
Lovely red houses!
The arts and crafts weren't really to my taste, but there were a lot of traditional handicrafts represented so it's a great place to pick up some Finland-souvenirs.
Very idyllic.
I have so many pics just like this, of my mum taking photos of flowers…:)
Matthew making sure Lana doesn't fall in.
There were also demonstrations of how the blacksmiths worked back in the day.
Thought these chains looked so pretty on the windowsill so had to take a photo!
It's a great place to bring your camera to.
Another shop Lana ran into – and I can totally see why she was tempted to do that with all those little things on display.
Traditional Finnish lace-work.
More reflection shots…
They're admiring the water lilies – no more snakes in sight!
There were just so many little details that I had to capture on camera.
Another beautiful wooden house that I think hosts a restaurant – or perhaps it was a hotel…
We headed to another place where Matthew tucked into a massive portion of ribs and the chef kindly made up a pregnant-friendly vegetarian pasta dish out of pulled oats and veggies.
Yup, he finished it all! He really has to go for it when there's meat on offer 🙂
One more shot from a different angle just as it started to rain and we decided it was time to leave.
It says on the website that some workshops are open year-round but most of them are open only from May until the end of September. There is also a hiking path called Kukuljärvi that you can experience throughout the year. All in all Strömfors is a nice little destination for a family day out!

Will The US-China Trade War Hit Apple The Most?
- Published May 14, 2019
- Apple
- Investing & Inspiration
China's decision to raise the tariffs on a number U.S goods (set to go effective June 1, 2019) after President Donald Trump threatened to raise the tariff on Chinese products came as a blow to the technology giant Apple, pulling down its stock by 6% as per reports in trading yesterday. Many believe that the US trade war with China could disturb Apple's business the most, primarily because the iPhone and many other of its electronic devices are assembled in Mainland China. China's low-cost labor force and skill in manufacturing is the most cost-effective current option for Apple and moving out of the country would not only take time but would come with its share of possible execution risks. Secondly, Apple's customer base in China would be hit hard. China is Apple's third biggest revenue generating market after America and Europe. Trade tensions between the two powers could hit the Chinese consumer sentiment and confidence leading to low sales on Apple products.
