Judge Orders Neo-Nazi Bill White to Undergo Psych Evaluation
Posted By Leah Nelson On August 8, 2012 @ 2:06 pm In Extremist Crime | 14 Comments
A Virginia judge has ordered Bill White [1], the Virginia neo-Nazi and convicted felon who faces federal charges for violating the terms of his supervised release, to undergo a psychiatric evaluation, The Roanoke Times reports [2].
White, 35, is a notorious Internet gossip who was released in April 2011 after spending more than two years in prison on multiple charges of threatening enemies through phone calls and Internet postings. But he missed a scheduled check-in with his probation officer the next month and disappeared from his Lynchburg home. In May, he wrote on Facebook that he had accepted "an offer of asylum from a foreign nation that shares my view that the United States government is not legitimate. I shall not be returning."
White indicated on Facebook that his new location was Tehran, but he was arrested [3] on June 8 near the Mexican resort town of Cancun and has been in federal custody since.
Questions about his state of mind arose after he sent supporters and federal authorities a series of bizarre screeds describing the U.S. as a "demonic dream" [4] from whose hold he had broken free.
In a letter sent in mid-June to the Roanoke federal building, White declared that while in prison he was given drugs that led him to communicate "with beings that … allowed [him] to explore certain hidden and obscured aspects of human experience."
Neither the court nor the proceedings against him are real – and neither is he, he proclaimed. "[T]here is no white supremacist William A White. … I cannot be William White because William White does not exist."
The federal prosecutor assigned to the case joined White's defense attorney, Paul Beers, in requesting the evaluation. "Given some of the writings we've seen come from Mr. White's pen recently, I think it would warrant a full evaluation," said U.S. Attorney Pat Hogeboom, according to the Times.
Some of White's supporters have speculated that White is in control of his mental faculties and that his letters are merely an attempt to manipulate the court.
"It is not clear whether … Bill has gone crazy, is trying to pull the clerk's leg, is trying to convince the court that he is crazy or is up to some cunning plot. Inquiring minds want to know," wrote one commenter on his fan blog.
On the white supremacist forum Vanguard News Network (VNN), another commenter speculated that White's statement "William White does not exist" suggests that the Virginia neo-Nazi has bought into, or is pretending to buy into, a theory popular in the antigovernment "sovereign citizens" movement [5]. "My guess is that Bill is attempting a garbled version of the straw man freeman capital letters name argument [6]," the commenter wrote.
White's next hearing is set for Sept. 12 at the U.S. District Court in Roanoke.

If "Bill is attempting a garbled version of the straw man" argument it appears that he has gone to OZ in search of a brain!

He should be quite happy in a Federal prison, since he would be amongst so many of his followers.

"Some of White's supporters…"
Bill White still has supporters?
""It is not clear whether … Bill has gone crazy, is trying to pull the clerk's leg, is trying to convince the court that he is crazy or is up to some cunning plot. "
It may be fake, but it's anything but cunning. Just like the claim that he escaped to Iran.

You'd have to be completely crazy to try to fake an insanity defense. Being found NGRI is generally much worse than being found guilty because it can result in decades in secure "treatment" environments and practically guarantees a lifetime of supervision and forced treatment (medication). The side effects of many of the antipsychotic medications are also extremely nasty.
But in any case, if he is in fact malingering they will be able to find out very quickly.
#6 Comment By Reynardine On August 9, 2012 @ 10:08 am
I would recommend that the judge in that case have a little talk with Rep. Alcee Hastings about Gib o' the Woods and the King's Men. Further I say not.
#7 Comment By Aron On August 9, 2012 @ 11:39 am
OK Rey, now I'm interested. I've looked up Gib o' the Woods and the King's Men (in several permutations), and I can find nothing.
Is there some hint you might be willing to drop?
#8 Comment By Mitch Beales On August 9, 2012 @ 11:42 am
Ruslan I've heard that White's supporters are very athletic.
#9 Comment By Joseph On August 9, 2012 @ 1:01 pm
He's still got supporters? I figured they would have thrown him to the wolves for "projecting weakness".
#10 Comment By Reynardine On August 9, 2012 @ 1:53 pm
Aron: Check The Miami Herald files from the mid '80′s for those terms.
#11 Comment By adamhill On August 14, 2012 @ 7:04 am
Bill White's Facebook posts written while he was on the lam, a time when he was probably believing he would never be caught, were perfectly lucid, at least in the sense that they didn't exhibit the kind of psychosis whose symptoms he is now (apparently) simulating. Even the most intelligent WNs lie at the lowest tail of the bell curve, because if one has half a brain, one doesn't have WN beliefs.
#12 Comment By Kiwiwriter On August 16, 2012 @ 1:56 pm
I don't think Bill White is crazy. He may be nuts, but he's not crazy.
I wonder how he liked Mexico?
#13 Comment By someone On August 18, 2012 @ 11:25 am
I initially suspected some variant of the strawman arguments as well, but if you read the letter he wrote (linked in the June 27 post), he appears to be making a metaphysical statement instead. He also claims to have been given medication in prison that caused a psychotic state.
Might be a shift towards esoteric Nazism? The Kali Yuga references suggest it. I guess it's possible he's setting up an insanity defense, but I don't think so.
#14 Comment By aadila On August 20, 2012 @ 3:06 pm
Anyone who has regular contact with prison populations is likely to confirm how common mental illness is within correctional facilities. Though perhaps our medieval prison system with its torture and execution is partly responsible for this.
In any case, I don't think anyone like Bill White is going to be all right in the head… but did he or does he have the mental faculties to distinguish between right and wrong? Moral confusion or amoral value systems do not necessarily indicate insanity.
I personally would like to see a prison system that values humanity and strives for rehabilitation through (1) faith based counseling to provide ethical foundations and a new sense of self, (2) drug and alcohol abuse treatment, (3) education leading to GED or higher degrees as appropriate, (4) vocational training and skill building including such things as communication and conflict resolution.
These four things alone or in combination have been shown to make a huge difference in keeping people out of prisons once they re-enter society. The zero tolerance and punishment model fails to do so.

Im so happy with my dealings with procamerashop.co.uk. The product I ordered was in stock, was dispatched immediately and the follow up service was phenomenal.
The best thing though is the lens I bought was about 20% cheaper than anywhere else advertised. I will highly recommend using them, and will be sure to be spending my hard earned cash with them again.

Customer Nene Whitewater Centre (Northampton) Reviews (1)
by - written on 23/10/09 (Very useful, 435 readings)
The Nene White-water centre is a white water rafting, canoeing and kayaking facility, situated next to Northampton, and is home to both the Northampton Canoe & Kayak Club and the Northampton Rowing Club. I recently visited the centre to take part in a 2 hour white water rafting session as part of a friends birthday celebrations. The facility is situated just off junction 15 of the M1, on the A428, so is easily accessible by car, but difficult to get there any other way. Once you arrive at the Centre you find it in a pleasant enough setting with a few leafy areas surrounding the mainly concrete water course. The centre building is fairly basic ...

Thanks to hobojon for bringing this back from De Heeren. Split two ways into a tulip glass.
Pours with a thick dense head which forms a lasting 5mm foam cap. Bright golden in color and fairly clear.
Smells like Cantillon! Light but sharp funk, ripe citrus, musty oak, a grassy meadow, even.
Tastes lemony (zest, pith, and juice). Clean, mild brett character, hay. Intriguing barrel notes and a touch of sweet malt in the finish.
Not overcarbed, slightly slick. Leaves teeth and mouth with tannic coat.
Very delicious. Not the most complex beer, but a clean and focused offering from Cantillon that is a step above their standard gueuze for me.

A HUGE thanks to Alex (Masterski) for providing this bottle. I technically won it in a raffle, but I still tip my cap to Alex for being such a great BA member.
Also a tip of the cap to Patrick and Dan (Jctribe25 & Prufrock) as the two folks who I shared the bottle with. Both great guys. Dan sponsored a mini tasting around a trade involving Kern River Citra..
We drank the Crianza out of small glasses and I noticed there was little to no head on any of the pours. The beer was a white wine, urine, yellow gold color with a dull finish. No lacing to speak of. A slight haze. Certainly not crystal clear.
The Aroma.. I could spend about an hour typing about the aroma. At first you noticed a lot of funk, barnyard notes with some tartness … However this continued to evolve. I can't believe I am typing this, but it's exactly what it smelled like. Patrick and Dan will confirm I was laughing and noting this the entire time. The beer smelled like Body Odor!!! It smelled like I do after a 10 mile run. I couldn't believe it and continued to ensure I was sensing this and I was. For the record I was freshly showered and had not just run 10 miles that evening.. so no it wasn't me. The most embarrassing thing to right is that it was more interesting than anything else. Really complex and interesting.
Flavor was very nice. Certainly tart, but not nearly as abrasively tart or acidic as some others. Green apple, some white wine notes. Very earthy, some lemon notes. This is truly a beer where you appreciate that overall "flavor" come from a combination of taste and aroma. Lot's of complexity, but a simplicity in how delicious it was. A treat to drink.
Light delicate, refreshing and fresh… (I know it's not a new bottle, but there was still a bright freshness to it)
I really enjoyed drinking this and consider it a treat to have had the opportunity.

A couple nice pours courtesy of brewdan--thanks so much for hosting!
Gently pours a nice one finger head. Color is an orangish yellow that's slightly hazy and includes a swarm of tiny bubbles. Smell reminds me of Cantillon gueuze, but at a more reserved level. Thin body and high carbonation. I taste soft raw pear and watery lemon rind. Finish is sour with a subtle grape flavor. Very easy to drink.

July 2011. Thanks to a generous BA for this.
Pours sunglow with a half-finger of white head that fades quickly. Surprising clarity; this is a pretty beer.
Intriguing nose: grape must, huge funk, lightly sweetened tropical fruit. A nice clean citric element, barnyard funk, and grassy graininess. As I kept smelling this, the tropical fruit note was somewhat clarified, though never perfectly - it's more of a sweet/tart fruit (green apple? white grape?). Light oak. Great balance for a gueuze.
Citric acidity hits the tongue immediately, but falls off as quickly as it came - Crianza is almost watery (by comparison) mid-palate. A different fruit profile than most gueuzes. There's citrus, of course, but then white grape must and light strawberry-vanilla sweetness. The tannic oakiness provides some structure, especially on the finish.
"Thick" for a gueuze (low carbonation). It could use a touch more tingle on the tongue. Very dry finish.
Not that I know much about cognac, but this seems 90% gueuze and 10% cognac barrel-aging (unlike, say, 50N-4E). Delicate and delicious, especially on the nose. I just wish there wasn't that lightly watered-down feel/taste on the front of the palate.

Bottle shared by Chris aka spycow.
A - Golden bodied beer with a little bit of a white head that didn't stick around for long and left minimal lace on the sides.
S - Nice tart funk with some barnyard elements. I actually didn't know this was in cognac barrels, although I wouldn't have guessed based on the smell. Smells a little bit like some red, sweet fruits, guessing that's the influence there. Not a ton of wood on this one. Smells nice.
T - Tart beer with some good funk, some sweeter fruit, nice horseblanket and barnyard, little grass, tiny bit of grapes and yeast. Really just a lot going on, it's nicely complex and is something I could see tasting good for a while longer.
M - Tart, dry finish, medium bodied, smooth with somehow tingly carbonation.
O - A really great beer, not going to break any doors down for it, but I'd trade for it if the price is right and would never refuse it. Has a lot going on that can keep one interested for a long time.

reviewed from notes, enjoyed @ MA BA tasting. Poured into Stone VE Tasting glass.
A- Hazy sunset orange body, very thin head. Vibrant color, glows in the glass.
S- Burst of citrus, some vanilla/oak and grassy funk.
T- Tart lemon- mild funk. Wow, this is smooth. Not sour at all- really mellow stuff. A little grape acidity and some oaky tannins. This stuff really comes together wonderfully. Cognac comes through in the finish and adds a wild card into the mix.
M- Tart, sweet, a bit savory. Oaky, drying. Supreme balance.
O- My notes end with 'lives up to the hype' underlined a bunch of times. This stuff is phenomenal.. for sure my favorite cantillon to date.

Thanks to digita7693 for the chance to try this.
A: Soft golden wheat color. Whispy ephemeral foam.
S: Straight up Cantillon funk (earthy, dirt, lemon must). Light and spritzy.
T: Light, funky, dark mushroom, dry and tannic tartness comes on but quickly gives way to bretty spiciness and steps back to allow spices to shine. Not picking up any barrel.
M: Light and dry. Carbonation begins to fade quicker than other Cantillons.
O: A fairly standard Cantillon gueuze. Quite good and light but not mindblowing.

Had at the huge whale-ish tasting at Chris's. Huge thanks to FluffyMcTingle for this one.
Pours a big fluffy head, fades semi quickly, no lacing, hazy golden orange carrot color.
Nose has some light funk, light tart fruit, light malts, light musty grape like chardonnay aromas, barrel aroma, a bit of acidity, light lemon like too.
Taste starts with a light horsehair funk, chewy bready malts and wild yeast, semi tart at first then fades a bit, light lemony like citrus, very light on the crazy, bit acidity but not much, bit fruity, drier finish, lingering tart fruits, sticky flemmy, the funk disappears really quickly, little bready on the finish too.
Mouth is medium bodied, good carb.
Overall amazing! Great flavors, light tart, light funk and bready, not really acidic either, very tasty but drinkable.

Vibrant bright amber color with a hefty amount of white fizzy head. A lot of foam on this, with a cloudy, hazy appearance.The aroma was so sour and funky. An awesome aroma here, tons of yeast coming through, a lot of light sour grapes and tartness. The taste was incredible, probably the best beer I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying. The first notes of tartness come in a refreshing manner tongue and explode in your mouth. Nice white grapes, light grains, and fresh grass and a hint of fine Chianti. As it gets warmer some more fruit such as pear and apple characters come through, very complex. I don't even know how describe all of it. the flavor is out of this world. The carbonation was still good, keeping light and fresher. mouth feel is light syrupy and crisp. Goes down incredibly cool. Simply fantastic.

Bottle into a wine glass; sampled at DLD '11. Undying gratitude goes out to the generous soul who shared this rare gem (and long-time personal whale). I am not worthy.
A: Lightly hazed pale amber body with a finger of frothy white foam. Attractive.
S: Classic Cantillon funk (i.e. lemon, barnyard, mustardseed, apple-skin, hay, etc), plus a bit of vanilla, cognac (very faint, but I think I pick it up), and generic sweetness. A bit sweeter than expected, but that isn't a bad thing: this is probably the most balanced and complex aroma of any Gueuze I've ever had. Fantastic.
T: Sour as all hell, with puckering lemon leading the way to a bit of caramel sweetness, and then more tart fruit. Intense and delicious, but not quite as supple and varied as the aroma.
M: Rich, full, and well-carbed. I can't imagine a more luxurious-feeling Lambic.
O: What a terrific beer - but of course I feel that way about almost every Cantillon I've ever had. Is this one unique? Certainly. Is it better than most? Probably. Is it the best I've had? Not quite - if only the beauty of the aroma had carried through fully into the taste. As it was, it tasted pretty much like Classic Gueuze, just with a bit more sweetness. That's not a bad thing, of course...

Bottle contributed by hu5om at our recent La Crosse sour tasting. Thanks for the nice suprise, Ryan! Split with some upright BAs and served in tulips:
A - Dark orange with yellow tones in the middle. Light head that dies pretty quick to form murky clouds int he middle. Not much lacing retention.
S - Tart funk. Hints of apples and slight cherries and plums. Little bit of barnyard. Not picking up on much of the barrels much. A tad bit leathery.
T - Really tart funk. Hay and horse blanket. Cherries, plums, and bits of raspberries. Heavy on the apples.
M - Smooth and dry. Tart bite in the back. Carbonation is not too bad.
O - Pretty good but not blown away. A really nice suprise and I'm really glad to have got the chance to try it. Thanks again for sharing Ryan.

reviewed from notes from my bday sour fest. this was poured into a snifter.
Very nice bright amber color with a huge amount of white fizzy head on top. At least four inches of white foam topping off this one made it look wonderful, with a deep cloudy and hazy look to it, I knew it was aged well.
The aroma was so sour and bitter, I had a cheek to cheek grin immediatly. Simply a wonderful aroma here, tons of yeast coming through, lots of light sour grapes and tartness. The flavor was superb, really one of the best I have ever had. The first light notes of sour yeast roll across the tongue and just explode in your mouth, rippling and shredding taste buds all the way. Nice white grapes, light grains, and fresh grass all coming through. As it warmed some more subtle pear and apple characters were coming through now, this was astoundingly complex, so much so I did not really even know where to begin with this. I was floored by the flavor here. The carbonation was huge, keeping it light and airy and really letting every get to a depth that was confoundedly complex.

Huge, huge thanks to nerd for opening this bottle up at DLD. This has been one of my top wants for quite some time now. Served in a SAVOR snifter.
Pour yields a nice golden-bodied brew with a thin white head that fades a bit quickly but leaves some nice bubbles behind. The nose brings forward a really nice funk element with quite a bit of barnyard plus some lemon and straw. Light oak character, but I don't get much of the cognac character. Not going to complain, as the aroma is one of the better aromas I've encountered from a gueuze.
The flavor backs off a bit and the funk is slightly more restrained. Light oak character plus moderate straw and funk. Fairly light acidity in the background. Feel hits the spot with a really nice dry and crisp finish and good carbonation. Really dry finish with a good level of pucker factor. All around, a really solid beer that I was thrilled to finally try.

Clear golden orange hue, small fluffy head.
Soft lambic aroma fusing a sweet vinious aesthetic and mellow toffe scented cognac.
Mild brett accents with a tartness that is a bit subtle than most Cantillons but burns a little going down. Reminds of maybe a younger lambic. Cognac is most noticeable, lending a little bit of toffee and spice to the mix. An interesting experiment that executed successfully but seems to be made with some restraint.

The beer pours a dark yellow golden color, with a thick white head which is very long lasting. Smell: Sourness, very funky sourness. Also a lot of wooden notes (cognac oak barrel). A bit red wine like, with grass and citrus notes. Smells simply fantastic. Taste: Tartness up front, dry and fruity (peach, citrus). There is also a nicely balanced wooden taste, with hints of cloves. Funky! Dry mouthfeel, but incredibly easy to drink. medium carbonation. What a beauty.

Shared by Chris (thanks!) and reviewed from notes. Poured from bottle into tulip with a light golden body and small white head that quickly fades. Smell is characteristic Cantillon funkiness - very similar to iris, lemon tartness, barnyard funk, some oak. Taste is a pretty intense sour, barnyard, hay, some cheese flavors, a bit of cognac, oak, and apple skins in the finish. Mouthfeel is light bodied, medium to high carbonation and incredibly dry. The sourness of this beer is almost overwhelming when the dryness is factored in. A good beer and I happily finished my pour, but I would most likely not go out of my way to try this again.

Another insane beer busted out by Jon at our tasting. dudes seriously got a bottomless bag of tricks. Thanks again Jon. Poured into my tasting glass from a bottle.
A: Golden yellow hue. Just a wisp of white head no lace.
S: Super funky. Loads of wet straw and horse blanket. Wet wood and plenty of sour lactic goodness.
T: Typical lactic sour. Lemons, green apples and wet wood. Modest amount of white pepper and earthy undertones.
M: Light crisp body. Teeth clenching sour and dry finish.
D: Another sour beer another pleasurable drinking experience.

Thank you Brad (ygtbsm94) for bring this VERY sought after brew to an excellent tasting!
A: Pours a golden color, mildly cloudy, with a small frothy head.
S: Sour, but not in a fruity way, but in a "it just is..." kind of way. There is an unusual flame, or fire note in this. NOT BURNT, but just fiery!
T: Same as the nose, but with even a more pronounced cinder block undertow. The acidity is great for the style, and the finish is very dry.
M: A bit oily (in a good way), and the bubbly carbonation has a good bite to it.
D: The chances of me trying this brew again are slim, but I'm so glad (and lucky) to have gotten to try it. For my money, I could have used some fruit in the overall product .... but that's just me.

Bottle poured into a tasting glass. Thanks to John for sharing this one!
(A)- Pours a clear goldenrod color that produced a good white head.
(S)- Dry, yet lightly earthy with light funk and must. Bits of lemon and a subtle underlying sweetness.
(T)- Rather sour up front with an added dryness. Minimal tart fruits with some mild background spice of some sort. Mild brett detectable.
(M)- A good carbonation level and balance. Good sour profile. A touch of like a woody spice that I know learned was cognac barrels; makes sense now.
(D)- A nice profile to it for sure that fits the style, but dropped lower on the radar for me with everything else we were trying that evening. Still solid stuff though.

Bottle. Pours a clear slightly orange color with a light white head. Funky, barnyard, lemony aromas in the nose. Not a big cognac drinker so fo rme pinpointing that aroma was tough although this did have a barrel type aroma to it. Light mouhfeel with good carbonation. Slightly tart wih notes of pepper and lemon. Acidic and funky comes to mind. The pepper taste gets in the way of the overall enjoyment of the beer but it is really good. Very easy drinking.

Shared at a tasting. Poured 3oz. into a small snifter. Reviewed from notes.
A: Poured a 1 finger white head that dissipates quickly. Beer is a slightly cloudy orange-yellow. Lacing is sparse and with little cling.
S: Nose is wood, bark, tart, and stale rubber. Tickles the insides of my nostrils. Cognac barrels are present but relegated to the background. Aromatic and very style appropriate.
T: Opens mildly tart and slight woody in the back. Yeasty bitterness is present towards the middle and finish but this is mostly covered but a lemon, citrussy sourness. Slightly peppery. Brett funkiness appears towards the end just before the finish which dries out the palate. Aftertaste is tart.
M: Light to medium bodied, light carbonation. Sticky and oily in the mouth. Saliva enducing puckering sourness. Messy finish with a dry, lingering aftertaste.
D: A very solid offering from Cantillon but this isn't too much (if at all) better than an aged Classic Geuze. Cognac barrels are detectable but just barely and is lost on someone who's palate isn't sophisticated enough to appreciate the subtleties of that flavor. Again, a very good beer but not worth trading house and home for.

Thanks to the "King of Beers" Jon for sharing this one.
Poured into a 5 oz. taster glass. Not a proper vessel for reviewing appearance, so my rating for this category is adjusted to create an accurate overall score.
Pours a clear effervescent golden color. The aroma is huge with a sweet and boozy corn/hay profile and some oxidation.
The flavor is sour up front with an apple juice and Cheerios mid-palate. Some apple skin and boozy sweetness in the finish.
The body is medium and carbonation is low and appropriate.
Overall this was tasty but not very complex at all in the world of Cantillon and really is not an improvement in any way over their standard gueuze. Nonetheless, it was a still a fantastic beer that is unfortunately too rare for its own good.

Pours a 1/2 finger of white head. Color is a clear golden orange. A lot of active carbonation.
Aroma: Classic cantillon funk. Sour lemons with acidity. Oaky and musky. Horse blanket with some leather. The cognac barrels are not very present. A bit of white pepper.
Taste: A bit sour, tart funk to this beer. Very acidic. Lemon citrus is huge. The cognac barrels show a bit here that I can taste it. It has a bit more of white pepper as well. Has some pears and apples. Some farm house horse blanket. A nice amount of oak as well. In the after taste I get some grapes.
Mouthfeel: Sour, tart, acidic. Lighter bodied with a medium amount of carbonation. Ends tart and dry.
Overall, it is a great beer, but I have a hard time telling it too far apart from the regular classic gueuze. It is better, but the cognac barrels do not show too much. They are there and it adds a hint of a layer to this beer.

Wednesday> Architect Srdjan Weiss Examines Viennese Housing at the Austrian Cultural Forum
The exhibit, The Vienna Model: Housing for the 21st Century City, currently on view at the Austrian Cultural Forum, is meant to provoke a discussion with housing advocates in this country. The Forum will host weekly tours of the exhibit by a variety of housing experts from various academic and professional fields. This Wednesday, the tour will be led by Srdjan Weiss, a Serbian-born architect and theorist based in New York City, with broad knowledge of the subject of housing in this country and Eastern Europe. The tour will be based on Weiss' parallel living experience and expertise in housing design from former socialist countries of Eastern Europe and Yugoslavia.
NYCHA to Lease Parcels of Land within Eight Public Housing Developments
After much speculation, New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) has officially announced its plan to lease parcels of land right in the middle of eight public housing developments in Manhattan to private developers. For several months, NYCHA officials have held meetings at the proposed sites, but the plans have been met with criticism from residents and local government representatives.
NYCHA Chairman Fesses Up, Discusses Hurricane Sandy Response Shortcomings
After much silence, New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) Chairman John Rhea revealed at a panel on Tuesday that the cash-strapped agency failed to adequately prepare for Hurricane Sandy. The super storm left 80,000 tenants without heat or power for several weeks, exposing the weak infrastructure and fragility of over 250 buildings, and also the agency's disorganization.
Luxury High Rises Could Sprout Among New York's Public Housing Towers
Luxury high rises could soon crop up right next to public housing. The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA), saddled with a $60 million deficit and a backlog of 420,000 repairs, is in quite a fix and has come up with one possible, and potentially controversial, solution to raise the money. According to a recent story in The Daily News, the over-extended agency is planning on leasing playgrounds, parks, and community centers within public housing complexes to private developers who would be allowed to build a total of 4,330 apartments.
CHA Wrecking Ball Returns
The last five families were moved out of the Harold Ickes Homes at the end of March, one of the latest clusters of high rise public housing the city is clearing as a part of the Chicago Housing Authority's "Plan for Transformation." Dozens of highrise towers have been demolished across the across the city, opening vast tracts of land for mixed-income and in some cases mixed-used development. While few would dispute that the large-scale warehousing of the poor in these projects helped to create major urban problems, the nearly total erasure of these areas seems as blunt as the urban renewal tactics through which they were originally built.

MamaDawg - 11:32 am on May 3, 2007 (gmt 0)
I had switched insurance plans recently and the company erroneously sent me a bill for BOTH plans. Called the only Customer Service number printed on the bill. After wading through 5 levels of voice prompts (including an extremely annoying module that didn't understand one of my responses and popped me back up 2 levels), I never managed to locate a "billing" option. Finally, after about 20 minutes of this nonsense, I managed to get a live person who MANUALLY transferred me to someone in billing. (I didn't try this but I have to wonder if their voice-recognition software recognizes certain irate phrases. "Thank you! I think you said "*&% %*&#%&^ @%%*(^*@#!)". If this is correct, say "Yes" or press "1" now...) [edited by: MamaDawg at 11:34 am (utc) on May 3, 2007]

3.2 These general standards apply to all audit organizations, both government and nongovernment (for example, public accounting firms and consulting firms), conducting audits of government organizations, programs, activities, and functions and of government assistance received by nongovernment organizations.
The staff assigned to conduct the audit should collectively possess adequate professional proficiency for the tasks required.
3.4 This standard places responsibility on the audit organization to ensure that each audit is conducted by staff who collectively have the knowledge and skills necessary for that audit. They should also have a thorough knowledge of government auditing and of the specific or unique environment in which the audited entity operates, relative to the nature of the audit being conducted.
3.5 The qualifications mentioned here apply to the knowledge and skills of the audit organization as a whole and not necessarily to each individual auditor. An organization may need to employ personnel or hire outside consultants knowledgeable in such areas as accounting, statistics, law, engineering, audit design and methodology, automated data processing, public administration, economics, social sciences, or actuarial science.
3.7 The audit organization is responsible for establishing and implementing a program to ensure that auditors meet the continuing education and training requirements just stated. The organization should maintain documentation of the education and training completed. 1
[NOTE 1: The qualifications standard and continuing education requirements place responsibilities on both the audit organization and individual auditors. Carrying out these responsibilities requires sound professional judgment. To assist audit organizations and individual auditors in exercising that judgment, the General Accounting Office (GAO) issued Interpretation of Continuing Education and Training Requirements, April 1991, Government Printing Office stock number 020-000-00250-6.]
3.8 The continuing education and training may include such topics as current developments in audit methodology, accounting, assessment of internal controls, principles of management or supervision, financial management, statistical sampling, evaluation design, and data analysis. It may also include subjects related to the auditor's field of work, such as public administration, public policy and structure, industrial engineering, economics, social sciences, or computer science.
3.9 External consultants and internal experts and specialists should be qualified and maintain professional proficiency in their areas of expertise and/or specialization but are not required to meet the above continuing education and training requirements. Auditors performing nonaudit activities and services also are not required to meet the above continuing education and training requirements.
a. Knowledge of the methods and techniques applicable to government auditing and the education, skills, and experience to apply such knowledge to the audit being conducted.
b. Knowledge of government organizations, programs, activities, and functions.
c. Skills to communicate clearly and effectively, both orally and in writing.
d. Skills appropriate for the audit work being conducted. For instance
(1) if the work requires use of statistical sampling, the staff or consultants to the staff should include persons with statistical sampling skills;
(2) if the work requires extensive review of computerized systems, the staff or consultants to the staff should include persons with computer audit skills;
(3) if the work involves review of complex engineering data, the staff or consultants to the staff should include persons with engineering skills; or
(4) if the work involves the use of nontraditional audit methodologies, the staff or consultants to the staff should include persons with skills in those methodologies.
e. The following qualifications are needed for financial audits that lead to an expression of an opinion.
(1) The auditors should be proficient in the appropriate accounting principles and in government auditing standards.
(2) The public accountants engaged to conduct audits should be (a) licensed certified public accountants or persons working for a licensed certified public accounting firm or (b) public accountants licensed on or before December 31, 1970, or persons working for a public accounting firm licensed on or before December 31, 1970.2
[NOTE 2: Accountants and accounting firms meeting these licensing requirements should also comply with the applicable provisions of the public accountancy law and rules of the jurisdiction(s) where the audit is being conducted and the jurisdiction(s) in which the accountants and their firms are licensed.]
In all matters relating to the audit work, the audit organization and the individual auditors, whether government or public, should be free from personal and external impairments to independence, should be organizationally independent, and should maintain an independent attitude and appearance.
3.12 This standard places responsibility on each auditor and the audit organization to maintain independence so that opinions, conclusions, judgments, and recommendations will be impartial and will be viewed as impartial by knowledgeable third parties.
3.13 Auditors should consider not only whether they are independent and their attitudes and beliefs permit them to be independent but also whether there is anything about their situations that might lead others to question their independence. All situations deserve consideration because it is essential not only that auditors are, in fact, independent and impartial, but also that knowledgeable third parties consider them so.
3.14 Government auditors, including hired consultants and internal experts and specialists, need to consider three general classes of impairments to independence--personal, external, and organizational. If one or more of these impairments affects an auditor's ability to do the work and report findings impartially, that auditor should either decline to perform the audit, or in those situations where that auditor cannot decline to perform the audit, the impairment(s) should be reported in the scope section of the audit report. Also, when auditors are employees of the audited entity, that fact should be reflected in a prominent place in the audit report.
3.15 Nongovernment auditors also need to consider those personal and external impairments that might affect their ability to do their work and report their findings impartially. If their ability is adversely affected, they should decline to perform the audit. Public accountants should also follow the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) code of professional conduct, the code of professional conduct of the state board with jurisdiction over the practice of the public accountant and the audit organization, and the guidance on personal and external impairments in these standards.
a. official, professional, personal, or financial relationships that might cause an auditor to limit the extent of the inquiry, to limit disclosure, or to weaken or slant audit findings in any way;
b. preconceived ideas toward individuals, groups, organizations, or objectives of a particular program that could bias the audit;
c. previous responsibility for decision-making or managing an entity that would affect current operations of the entity or program being audited;
d. biases, including those induced by political or social convictions, that result from employment in, or loyalty to, a particular group, organization, or level of government;
e. subsequent performance of an audit by the same individual who, for example, had previously approved invoices, payrolls, claims, and other proposed payments of the entity or program being audited;
f. concurrent or subsequent performance of an audit by the same individual who maintained the official accounting records;3 and
g. financial interest that is direct, or is substantial though indirect, in the audited entity or program.
[NOTE 3: For example, an individual performs a substantial part of the accounting process or cycle, such as analyzing, journalizing, posting, preparing, adjusting and closing entries, and preparing the financial statements, and later the same individual performs an audit. In instances in which the auditor acts as the main processor for transactions initiated by the audited entity, but the audited entity acknowledges responsibility for the financial records and financial statements, the independence of the auditor is not necessarily impaired.]
a. external interference or influence that improperly or imprudently limits or modifies the scope of an audit;
b. external interference with the selection or application of audit procedures or in the selection of transactions to be examined;
c. unreasonable restrictions on the time allowed to complete an audit;
d. interference external to the audit organization in the assignment, appointment, and promotion of audit personnel;
e. restrictions on funds or other resources provided to the audit organization that would adversely affect the audit organization's ability to carry out its responsibilities;
f. authority to overrule or to influence the auditor's judgment as to the appropriate content of an audit report; and
g. influences that jeopardize the auditor's continued employment for reasons other than competency or the need for audit services.
3.20 Auditors should also be sufficiently removed from political pressures to ensure that they can conduct their audits objectively and can report their findings, opinions, and conclusions objectively without fear of political repercussion. Whenever feasible, they should be under a personnel system in which compensation, training, job tenure, and advancement are based on merit.
3.21 If the above conditions are met, and no personal or external impairments exist, the audit staff should be considered organizationally independent to audit internally and free to report objectively to top management.
3.22 When organizationally independent internal audi-tors conduct audits external to the government entity to which they are directly assigned, they may be considered independent of the audited entity and free to report objectively to the head or deputy head of the government entity to which assigned.
3.24 Government auditors may be presumed to be independent of the audited entity, assuming no personal or external impairments exist, if the entity is
a. a level of government other than the one to which they are assigned (federal, state, or local) or
b. a different branch of government within the level of government to which they are assigned (legislative, executive, or judicial).
3.25 Government auditors may also be presumed to be independent, assuming no personal or external impairments exist, if the audit organization's head is
a. elected by the citizens of their jurisdiction,
b. elected or appointed by a legislative body of the level of government to which they are assigned and report the results of audits to, and are accountable to the legislative body, or
c. appointed by the chief executive but confirmed by, report the results of audits to, and are accountable to a legislative body of the level of government to which they are assigned.
Due professional care should be used in conducting the audit and in preparing related reports.
3.27 This standard requires auditors to work with due professional care. Due care imposes a responsibility upon each auditor within the audit organization to observe generally accepted government auditing standards.
3.28 Exercising due professional care means using sound judgment in establishing the scope, selecting the methodology, and choosing tests and procedures for the audit. The same sound judgment should be applied in conducting the tests and procedures and in evaluating and reporting the audit results.
3.29 Auditors should use sound professional judgment in determining the standards that apply to the work to be conducted. The auditors' determination that certain standards do not apply to the audit should be documented in the working papers. Situations may occur in which government auditors are not able to follow an applicable standard and are not able to withdraw from the audit. In those situations, the auditors should disclose in the scope section of their report, the fact that an applicable standard was not followed, the reasons therefor, and the known effect that not following the standard had on the results of the audit.
3.30 While this standard places responsibility on each auditor and audit organization to exercise due professional care in the performance of an audit assignment, it does not imply unlimited responsibility; neither does it imply infallibility on the part of either the individual auditor or the audit organization.
Each audit organization conducting audits in accordance with these standards should have an appropriate internal quality control system in place and undergo an external quality control review.
3.32 The internal quality control system established by the audit organization should provide reasonable assurance that it (1) has adopted, and is following, applicable auditing standards and (2) has established, and is following, adequate audit policies and procedures. The nature and extent of an organization's internal quality control system depend on a number of factors, such as its size, the degree of operating autonomy allowed its personnel and its audit offices, the nature of its work, its organizational structure, and appropriate cost-benefit considerations. Thus, the systems established by individual organizations will vary, as will the extent of their documentation.
3.33 Organizations conducting audits in accordance with these standards should have an external quality control review at least once every 3 years by an organization not affiliated with the organization being reviewed.4 The external quality control review should determine whether the organization's internal quality control system is in place and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance that established policies and procedures and applicable auditing standards are being followed.
[NOTE 4: Audit organizations should have an external quality control review completed (that is, report issued) within 3 years from the date they start their first audit in accordance with these standards. Subsequent external quality control reviews should be completed within 3 years after the issuance of the prior review.]
3.34 An external quality control review under this standard should meet the following requirements.5
a. Reviewers should be qualified and have current knowledge of the type of work to be reviewed and the applicable auditing standards. For example, individuals reviewing government audits should have a thorough knowledge of the government environment and government auditing relative to the work being reviewed.
b. Reviewers should be independent (as defined in these standards) of the audit organization being reviewed, its staff, and its auditees whose audits are selected for review. An audit organization is not permitted to review the organization that conducted its most recent external quality control review.
c. Reviewers should use sound professional judgment in conducting and reporting the results of the external quality control review.
d. Reviewers should use one of the following approaches to selecting audits for review: (1) select audits that provide a reasonable cross section of the audits conducted in accordance with these standards or (2) select audits that provide a reasonable cross section of the organization's audits, including one or more audits conducted in accordance with these standards.
e. This review should include a review of the audit reports, working papers, and other necessary documents (for example, correspondence and continuing education documentation) as well as interviews with the reviewed organization's professional staff.
f. A written report should be prepared communicating the results of the external quality control review.
[NOTE 5: External quality control reviews conducted through or by the AICPA, National State Auditors Association, National Association of Local Government Auditors, President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency, Executive Council on Integrity and Efficiency, and Institute of Internal Auditors meet these requirements.]
3.35 External quality control review procedures should be tailored to the size and nature of an organization's audit work. For example, an organization that performs only a few audits may be more effectively reviewed by emphasizing a review of the quality of those audits rather than the organization's internal quality control policies and procedures.
3.36 Audit organizations seeking to enter into a contract to perform an audit in accordance with these standards should provide their most recent external quality control review report to the party contracting for the audit. Information in the external quality control review report often would be relevant to decisions on procuring audit services. Audit organizations also should make their external quality control review reports available to auditors using their work and to appropriate oversight bodies. It is recommended that the report be made available to the public.
[NOTE 6: The term "report" does not include separate letters of comment.]

Israeli nuclear whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu will be put under supervision but not arrest after he completes an 18-year prison term in April, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has decided.
No details on restrictions were given, but security sources said Israel would ban the former atomic reactor technician from travelling abroad, tap his telephone and monitor his movements.
Vanunu gave Britain's Sunday Times newspaper details in 1986 about the Dimona reactor facility where he worked, leading experts to conclude that Israel had 100 to 200 nuclear warheads.
Mr Sharon convened a meeting of security and legal advisers to discuss muzzling Vanunu to ensure he spills no more secrets after he completes his treason sentence.
Administrative arrest (detention without trial under emergency rules) was rejected, Mr Sharon's office said, but there would be "proper supervisory measures".

(Solved) - Firefox 3 issues
(7 posts)- Remove Solved Status
I downloaded FF3.0 the day of the release. Found no problems with it except for speed. However, that could have been my ISP having problems. I personally prefer ole IE6 (Just a good old worn out shoe) so I imaged partition back to clean machine again. The day after the release, a NEW bug was found and I'm not sure what it was. I know that the team was working on a quick fix but haven't been up on the site since last week.
Rick P.
Thanks guys. There was one extension 'Tab Effect' that I had forced compatible. Uninstalling solved the latter two issues.
For some reason, any way I try, no new bookmarks are saved after restarting. D'oh.
I'm preparing for a complete Revo uninstall and will start anew. If similar issues exist thereafter, it'll be FF2 all over again. :(
I'm having problems with FF3 crashing when I try to log on to my gmail account. Probably because of that gtalk chat client which is embedded into your account. I have this add-on called Hit-a-hint which I made compatible with FF3 by editing the install.rdf file (it was not compatible with FF3 initially). I have a hunch this might be causing the problem. I'll post here what I could gather later.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Ryan Gosling & Emma Stone in Gangster Squad |
There are a few films I've had to leave off this list that nevertheless sound very intriguing. Pedro Almodovar who returned to top form with The Skin I Live In will be back with Mina, a biopic about an Italian singer and we all know a biopic in his hands won't just be any biopic. Michael Haneke's new film called Amour will most likely screen at Cannes and though early word – that I don't remember where I've first heard – has not been especially positive, we're still talking about Haneke and every one of his films is an event. Ruben Fleischer's Gangster Squad looks intriguing and his Zombieland was tons of fun, plus, Hollywood's new 'it' boy Ryan Gosling stars so it's a must-see.
Park Chan Wook's Stoker will bring the crazy in Oldboy together with Nicole Kidman; the only reason it missed out on the list is the current cultural vampire overload but I know I'll be first in line when it comes out anyway. Pixar's new film Brave is likely to be a return to their better days after the disaster that was the financially motivated, conceptually inept Cars 2. Finally, Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises is a film I'll surely watch on opening night for obvious reasons but I'd be lying if I said the hype has gotten me that excited about it.

Dunham Academy has been an absolute haven for my son. A place where he has been able to learn and grow and bloom. A place where teachers and the parent community understand that academically gifted children learn differently and develop asynchronously. My son's birthday was just a few days past the Kindergarten cut-off date and everyone told me that he was not mature enough for school and he would be better off with another year in preschool. He was an early reader and has a real love for math so another year in preschool would have been a disservice to him. We found the Dunham Academy and a whole new world opened up. In his previous school when my son talked about the planets and ask questions about them it was met with "There's a globe over in the library area why don't you go look at that." Whereas at Dunham Academy when he showed his excitement about planets his WONDERFUL WONDERFUL teacher said "Do you want to learn about the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud that is also part of our Solar System?" This school has been a perfect fit...small class sizes amazing teachers and classmates/friends who understand each other. We are so lucky to have found the Dunham Academy.

Green Coffee Bean Max Review - Dr. Oz Likes Green Coffee for Weight Loss
The latest research shows that Green Coffee Bean burns fat fast. In a recent study, 16 adults completed their daily diet with the new fighter of fat for only 4 weeks and have lost an average of 12 pounds each, and they have not changed their regular eating habits, or hit the room gym every morning sweaty cardio sessions. They just took their capsules as directed and lived normally leave slimming capsules do the rest.
Green Coffee Bean Max is a health supplement weight loss with pure extract of green coffee beans as the main ingredient. The health supplement has gained popularity for its unique ability to burn fat effectively and other remarkable benefits.
It is one of the few 100% health supplements safe and natural because it contains all natural ingredients, without additives. Many health experts and enthusiasts are aware of this supplement, and it has appeared on various television
Green coffee extract products are flying off the shelves since Dr. Oz he profiled earlier this year. The main goal of the users is to use its natural fat burning properties, although other benefits are also speculated
Faster Weight Loss Formula
Men and women who want to lose weight often look for ways to do outside of intense exercise. According to research, join a health club declined in the last decade. Some analysts believe that the time it takes to go to a health club, daily training and cope with family responsibilities has contributed to the decline. Doctors prescribe the weight loss routines usually refer men and women healthy ways to lose excess weight.
Green coffee beans are fresh coffee beans that have not been roasted. Coffee beans have been roasted to standard 475 degrees Fahrenheit, and this is where their dark color comes from. The roasting process also causes green beans to lose 90% of their fat-burning component and primary anti-oxidant - chlorogenic acid. In their pure form 100% green coffee beans have a significant breakthrough in the science of natural health and weight loss.
The great thing about Green Coffee Bean Max are natural ingredients. There is absolutely no fillers in the product. The pills contain only the following:
Green Coffee Extract 800 mg Ingredients
Other Ingredients: Calcium Carbonate, Cellulose, Croscarmellose sodium, magnesium coatings (Hydoxypropyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol)
In conclusion, this product is really worth. Many people have had great success with it. The only problem is that you need to make sure to order high quality pills. There are many imitations out there ... and many people have had horrible results with them. When it comes to taking pills ... I think paying a little more for better quality products worth!

Pella —
During a somewhat short meeting on Aug. 7, the Pella City Council approved a resolution accepting a road right-of-way transfer from Marion County.
This resolution accepts a transfer of road right-of-way from Marion County, which extends from the City's corporate limits on East Park Lane to 240th Place. Currently this right-of-way segment is not being used by the general public; however, it has been shown in the City's comprehensive plan since 1977 as a part of the extension of East Park Lane to 240th Place.
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources has mandated the City to eliminate all known bypasses in Pella's sanitary sewer collection system. In order to accomplish this mandate, the City will be installing a new 8,100 linear force main to connect lift station #2 on East Park Lane to the southeast truck sewer located at the intersection of Vermeer Road and 240th Place. Since the proposed route for the force main includes this right-of-way area, staff contacted Marion County to obtain a permit for the installation. Instead of issuing a permit, Marion County prefers to transfer all of their rights in this right-of-way segment to the City of Pella. The reason for this position is the County has no intentions or plans to reestablish a road in this location.
Included in the right-of-way transfer is a one lane bridge which does not meet current
infrastructure standards. Furthermore, Marion County has blocked the general public's access to this bridge. It is staffs understanding that the bridge is currently utilized by private property owners for agricultural and recreational access to their properties only.
City staff is recommending the following course of action for the existing single lane bridge in this easement area:
-The general public's access to this bridge will continue to be denied.
-Staff will have the bridge inspected to determine if it is suitable for its current use and its posted limit of 23 tons. The estimated cost of the inspection would be approximately $1,000.
-If the bridge is suitable for its existing use, the two private property owners will be allowed to use this bridge to access their property; however, they will need to abide by the tonnage limits. If the bridge is not suitable for its current use, it will be torn down.
Other points that are relevant to the transfer include:
-This transfer of right-of-way will be made via Quit Claim Deed by the County and is subject to the rights of ingress and egress of any and all existing utilities.
-The County's right-of-way easement for East Park Lane is 40 foot and current City standards for right-of-way require 70 feet. Therefore, additional right-of-way would be required if East Park Lane is extended in the future to 240th Place.
-Since 1977, the City's comprehensive plan has shown the extension of East Park Lane to 240th Avenue which includes the County's existing road right-of-way for East Park Lane.
-This right-of-way segment is the proposed route for the City's new sanitary sewer force main project which is being mandated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.
Council also approved a resolution accepting park land to expand Brook Circle Park.
This resolution accepts the donation of .37 acres in Brookview Acres from DUGO, Inc., the developer of the Brook Circle Subdivision.
City staff believes receipt of this land would be beneficial to the City as this lot abuts the Brook Circle Park and could be used to provide additional green space for the park. The new parcel also allows the potential for better access for maintenance. Currently, the street frontage of the park is too steep to enter with equipment such as pickup trucks and lawn mowers and access must be gained through a neighboring lot.
In other action
Council approved the second readings, waived third readings and adopted a pair of ordinances (#863 and #864) for alley right-of-way vacation requests.
Ordinance 863 vacates the alley right-of-way segment located behind 309 Okaloosa Street as requested by Private Housing Co. There is currently an existing utility easement with Windstream which will be preserved. This vacation will not diminish the City's rights to establish and reserve utility easements for use of such utilities including but not limited to sanitary sewer mains, water mains, electric lines, telephone lines, cable lines, and natural gas lines.
Ordinance 865 vacates the alley right-of-way segment located behind 313 and 317 Oskaloosa Street as requested by Arvin Klein and Larry Lautenbach. The public utility easement will be maintained for the entire area.
The full alley remaining between Prairie and Carson Streets will be vacated.
The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the alley vacation at their meeting on June 25, 2012 subject to maintaining a public utility easement for the full alley area to be vacated and subject to obtaining intent to purchase agreements signed by adjoining property owners prior to City conveyance of the alley property. The latter, which was recommended by the City Attorney, would assure that the City is not left with any residual pieces of the alley should one or more of the property owners adjacent decide not to purchase.

Mary Poole, Ph.D. - Undergraduate Cultural & Regional Studies Program Coordinator
Academic Statement (Return to top)
Mary came to Prescott College in 2003 with a background in Public Policy, a doctorate in U.S. History, and years of experience in international development and indigenous rights, all of which has informed her teaching at PC. She teaches history courses including: The Colorline in U.S. History; History of Gender and Sexuality; American Pardox: History of a Varied People. Through all of her courses, Mary teaches students to pay attention to how history is culturally produced, a narrative contructed in ways that reify or challenge existing power relations. As Co-Director, with Meitamei Olol Dapash, of the Maasai Community Partnership Project, Mary leads PC students to Kenya every summer to undertake historical and other research on behalf of the Maasai community of Kenya, especially research that supports the community's interest in recovering land taken under British colonization. In this and other ways, Mary believes that history provides a valuable resource to social justice work, as it reveals possiblities that exist beyond our current imaginations and information useful to politically and economically marginalized communities. Mary's first book, The Segregated Origins of Social Security: African Americans and the Welfare State (UNC: 2006) explores the history of race discrimination and social policy. She is currently co-authoring the autobiography of Meitamei Olol Dapash: London is Burning: the Life of a Maasai Activist.

Recipe by KAREN SHAVER
"Who would think bananas would go so nicely with fish? I used sole with this recipe, but I think any white fish would work. My family usually doesn't eat fish, but we all gobbled this up!"
Watch video tips and tricks
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
6 (4 ounce) fillets sole
1/2 cup white wine
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
salt and pepper to taste
3 bananas, sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
What wierdo thought to put bananas with fish. How genious!!! Tasted delicious and not very hard to do. Make sure to have colorful sides because the white fish with the white banana with the white sauce makes the dish pretty white.
I did not care for this. The white wine was overpowering, and the bananas go all mushy when cooked - overall tasted bad with the fish.

This has the basis of being incredible! I did it according to the recipe but put the wine in the sauce and didn't uses as much.It was great. Next time I will use Petrale sole instead of Dover, it has less water content. I will also make the sauce a little thinner, mine was super thick. I loved the bananas! I want a banana in each bite so I will add more. All in all, very tasty! We loved it!I'll do it again with the changes and may change the rating to 5 stars!
Very interesting and definately worth trying, but I don't think I'd make it a regular meal. You could definately get away with adding a lot less wine (there is a lot of liquid to drain off in the finished dish) and I think fresh cilantro would make a good addition between the fish and the banannas.
This was better than expected. My husband said it was like something you order at a restaurant and wants me to make it again soon.
My husband loved this recipe as did I - we ate it so quickly! I omitted the white wine from the recipe and it still tasted great! Will definately cook again!
This is a great idea. I tried it last night. It turned out good but I think I had too much flour in the sauce as it was a little "pastey" if you will. I posted a pic of my finished fish. Next time I think I will add a bit more Banana too. Very good combination with the cheese (I used Parmesan & Romano) Without my sauce mistake and very little tweaking, I think this is an awesome idea and is very good!
I had this dish at Tio Peppe's in Baltimore turned out very simalar. I think it would be great with other types of fish as well.
