Film Review: New Documentary on Hate Revealing
Posted By Seth Levi On August 19, 2010 @ 11:38 am In Hate Groups,Klan,Neo-Nazi | 36 Comments
White racial extremists are certain that "their" culture is under attack and has to be defended with guns. "If there is going to be any salvation of our culture, white European culture, violence is guaranteed because they're not listening," says long-time neo-Nazi and White Aryan Resistance leader Tom Metzger. I am not quite sure what Metzger is talking about — salvation for European culture in the United States? What exactly is "white culture"? But as Mariah Wilson's new documentary "Revealing Hate" shows, racial extremists are typically better at advocating and committing violence than coherently explaining their irrational views.
Wilson's well-constructed film provides a comprehensive introduction to the American white supremacist movement, examining its roots, its current state and a number of its individual voices. Broken into eight chapters, Metzger and the Southern Poverty Law Center's Intelligence Project Director Mark Potok (who edits this blog) supply the bulk of the commentary. (Full disclosure: One of the chapters focuses on the work of the Intelligence Project.) Metzger offers analysis from the point of view of a racial extremist on the various incidents and people in the film, and Potok is his counterpoint, providing his expertise on hate groups.
Metzger is the most intriguing of Wilson's interview subjects. While his motivations behind wanting to stop the supposed dilution of the white race are hard to understand — he claims that he became a white supremacist not because of any incident with a minority, but because he "observed" African Americans while in the Army — he is capable of remarkable insight. He is dismissive of the rabblerousing rallies and marches that neo-Nazis like to hold, noting the irony of how reliant these supposed revolutionaries are on the government for the protection of their First Amendment rights — they have to be bused to their rallies from a secret location, escorted by police, placed behind chain fences, and so on. The rallies, as seen in the documentary, are a strange circus of swastikas, 1940s Nazi paraphernalia, sieg-heiling young men, American flags and speeches about being "willing to kill to get back my white America." Are these American flag-waving neo-Nazis unaware that the United States went to war against the Third Reich?
It's easy to discount the threat of racial extremists after watching groups like these make a mockery of themselves, so Wilson smartly confronts viewers with the full savagery these people are capable of by focusing on one of the more infamous incidents of extremist violence in America. In 1979, a group of Communist Workers Party members held a "Death to the Klan" rally in Greensboro, N.C. As the rally began, Klan members rolled up in their cars, removed guns from the trunks and opened fire on the protesters, killing five of them. Four local news stations were present to tape the rally and captured the massacre in shocking detail. The first time I watched it I thought it might be a reenactment because the images were so vivid (no shaky, out-of-focus camera work here). Wilson could have chosen to interview people about a more recent crime perpetrated by extremists, such as the 2009 murder of a guard at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., but there is no footage of that attack and a verbal description of what happened beggars the impact of actually seeing Klan members engage in murder.
The white supremacists Wilson examines all have the same broad goal: saving white culture. That goal may be abstract, but the supremacists are action-oriented. Metzger tells racist skinheads to grow their hair out and "get a good education. Get into army, police, anywhere you can get power. … Wait for the big war — like Timothy McVeigh, multiplied by 10,000." Naturally, he realizes that if you are serious about promoting violence, it is best to keep your head down. (Metzger probably learned that lesson after the SPLC won a $12.5 million civil judgment against him for having helped incite a racially motivated murder). The supremacists all seem to agree that violence will be a component of the white restoration and that people like McVeigh are heroes. But Metzger thinks in more insidious and practical terms.
As Potok notes, the Klan once had tremendous influence among politicians and other authorities. In the film, the famous retired Klan investigator Stetson Kennedy recounts how a Klan official gave him a deathbed account of inducting President Warren Harding into the Klan in a ceremony inside the White House. Today, Metzger and others like him may be having more success than we think at influencing young white supremacists to go underground and seize power. In recent years, for example, fairly large numbers of neo-Nazis and so-called "ghost skins" (skinheads who have grown their hair and, essentially, gone undercover) have entered the military to gain military skills for later action. (The SPLC produced major reports on this phenomenon, ultimately resulting in a change of Pentagon policy meant to keep such extremists out.) The threat is no longer just lone wolves like Timothy McVeigh committing domestic terrorism, but Manchurian candidates who can influence public policy and upend our laws without having to fire a shot.
"Revealing Hate" is well worth watching, as the couple of film festival awards it's already landed suggest. It has not been shown as of yet on national television, but it continues to receive film festival and local TV screenings and is likely to get more — upcoming dates and locations are available at the film's site [1]. A DVD of the film, available here [2], also goes on sale beginning Tuesday.

I don't believe whites are supreme.
I do believe white culture has been under attack for some time.
How? It is being ignored. Dismissed. Pushed to irrelevance.
You can focus on the bad parts. It's easy. There are so many examples to chose from. But, there's also good.
We've been in the middle of a culture war for a long time.
A constant tug o war of values and priorities.
Everyone here recognizes this.
These supremacists fear their culture will die.
I consider these fears to be valid.
You don't know what white culture is. Ok.
Attend these meetings. Meet these folks.
Share a meal with these families.
Away from the meetings.
Listen to them.
I think you will get it.
You seem to be an intelligent person.

Nazi wannabe's these people. They resemble the Brown shirts more so than the Black shirts.
I believe they are more Brown shirt in their beliefs and convictions than the Black shirts were capable of doing.
They are more like thugs rather than intelligent, cold, calculating Reinhard Heydrich's.
#3 Comment By Carter On August 19, 2010 @ 2:33 pm
For those who study, work within field affected by bigotry, or interested individuals, "Revealing Hate" is certainly an important film.
Many books have taken on greater impact as the nation and world is changing.
And the world (as well, the USA IS changing). We how have the first real African American president. The issues of race and cultural relationships is no longer a taboo subject. Race as a discussion topic is no longer uncommon. There are sources that are vital for those who want to learn as much as they can. There is much more to be done. Those who look forward to a better world for their children should not enclose themselves in a microcosm of their own perspective; it's vital to know the adversary.
"Know your adversary as you know yorself" is a very wise concept. For many people that includes not only the works of those who work for a more compassionate interaction within society but the mind of those affected by the "DIS-EASE" of bigotry.
If the proponents of bigotry choose to deal with this issue on a "war footing"; those who oppose bigotry should be capable of comprehending that.
I firmly believe that the writings of those who espouse bigotry should be read and studied. This may superficially appear strange but there is vital need for it.
In addition to the writings of William Pierce, I would suggest that the serious student read Richard Hoskins (The Vigilantes of Christendom: the Story of the Phineas Priesthood, amongst others) & understand the history of people like Tom Metzger. – Those who have risen in the ranks, as it were.
How can an individual understand, debate, let along cope with, an adversary if he does not know the essence of what their thinking [really is]?
"[The art of war.....] It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected."
– Sun Tzu, the Art of War

Even Benjamin Franklin was worried about the dilution of the new American culture, but his was focused on the people who spoke the guttural language German. He thought the people of Germany and countries east and south it would ruin the great society of English and French had established. White culture is a myth that could only have come about in 20th century America where all nationalities lived and worked together. The reality of the white culture is while this was happening in America, the same nationalities were killing each other over presumed slights or the old I am better than you insanity.
#5 Comment By Snorlax On August 19, 2010 @ 5:37 pm
"White culture" is a racist buzzword.
I've been whiter than rice all my life and there's no such thing as "white culture".
I'm reading the new Intelligence Report on the Sovereign Citizens movement. They use buzzwords too.
These far right wingnuts are armed and dangerous.

I like the analogy to the brown shirts vs. the black shirt SS.
Some of these morons are more like Mussolini's crew.
You know, the ones all the other fascists laughed at.
#7 Comment By skinnyminny On August 19, 2010 @ 5:52 pm
It is true! Extremists are going underground, changing their names and appearances. Example, Dan Schruender is alleged to be a white supremacist, pictures of him with a swatiska/nazi flag and alleged to have littered Rialto neighborhoods with hate fliers. Now he is running for an elected school board position in Rialto Calif – 75% latino, 15% black. BTW, he is a retired teacher, and his alias is Dan Collins.
What I don't understand is that most of the time when they are on the run, they run to a Latin American country! This is truly confusing if, here in the states they hate anyone that is not 'white.' There are rumors that Rex Freeman who is wanted in the states is now on the run from Costa Rica under the name Boswell, and is alleged to be in Panama.
#8 Comment By Tom Shelley On August 19, 2010 @ 8:31 pm
I might do another comment about some of the other things that have been said.
But the article and kind of something Carter wrote touch on something I do on my blog. I take the lyrics of a lot of songs I listen and alter them in different ways. One way of doing it is that I take the lyrics of songs I politically despise and twist them into more or less the opposite of those of offensive politics. I listen to a small amount of white supremacist music, partly as research (the lyrics and the images in the YouTube videos) and parftly because it seems I enjoy listening to the music of my enemy.
The main reason I'm telling you this is that I did a poem (that's what I call them) about the Greensboro Massacre. I'm a democratic Marxist/left-wing social democrat and as far as I can tell the CWP (which died in the 1980s) is a group whose beliefs and actions I would have a problem with. I thought it was important to mark the 30th anniversary of the massacre. I mean, the CWP members killed are martyrs of what could be called the broad anti-racist movement. I was wondering what supporters of the SPLC think of commemorating the Massacre? The poem is 2/3 the way down a post at [3] (it's called "Comrades of America"). (you might want to also read the 3rd paragraph from the top of the post)
Either way, I'd love to get some feed-back on this.

Todd, feel free to explain what "white culture" is. I need a laugh.

There are good elements of what white people generally do.That is what is cosidered "Good white culture". There are bad elements of what white people generally do.That is what is cosidered "bad white culture". The racism has to go,that and any thug behavior.
#11 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 20, 2010 @ 7:47 am
There is no such thing as an ethnicity called "white" people. Ergo there is no "white" culture. There is the culture of various European countries, which in turn has been influenced greatly from outside of Europe depending on each country's specific history.

There's no need for an explanation here for what is a "white culture." Just go to the Kolovrat concert nearest to you, all by yourself. Given your background, you'll be able "catch" a first-hand experience on your own. LOL.
#13 Comment By dave On August 20, 2010 @ 9:58 am
I didn't think of it as an ethnicity as much as an alternative to"Paleface". It's also laziness on my part,I say "car" instead of "automobile" out of habit. So it's "white" instead of "caucasian" ,also it's less clinical sounding. Still,If "White culture" is "Under Attack" it's because America is a melting pot and it happens to everyone.
#14 Comment By Tom Shelley On August 20, 2010 @ 1:00 pm
I agree that there is no white ethnic group and therefore no white culture. I don't push this on people, but I think it would be better if anti-/non-racist white people acknowledged that in some ways we are white (white privilege) but identify more as, for example, Italian-American. I think that might have a good effect on white supremacy- and actually I would probably say something similar about racists, it might (combined with other information/experiences) result in them changing.
I got started thinking about this after reading/hearing things by Angela Davis, Ward Churchill, and James Baldwin.
I had some trouble organizing my thoughts on this, hopefully it makes sense.
#15 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 20, 2010 @ 1:13 pm
If Kolovrat and their fans are "white culture" then that's pretty pathetic.
So who's up for a challenge- what is "white culture". Step right up and make yourself look like a jackass.
#16 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 20, 2010 @ 10:49 pm
Oh and "Barbary Falcon", you are more likely to get beat down at a Kolovrat concert for being American than I am any day of the week. And the funny thing is imagining you screaming "BUT I'M WHITE!!! I'M WHITE!!!" To no avail.
#17 Comment By daemonesslisa On August 21, 2010 @ 9:32 am
Seriously, Ruslan, whites in North America get to celebrate their cultures all the time. The Irish, Italians, French and even the Germans get to do so. And I'm sure other European descendants get to do so as well.
My guess is that it just isn't "white" enough for the jackasses you mentioned. But that's why they're jackasses.
#18 Comment By Tom Shelley On August 21, 2010 @ 1:10 pm
I think that Daemmonesslisa's comment a bit above this is directed at me, not Ruslan.
I didn't say whites don't GET to celebrate their culture. I would say that they don't do it. And what I was saying was that they identify more as white than as, for example, Greek American. I don't think that identifying primarily/only as white is helpful. We need to get people to understand that race is socially constructed to weaken the working-class and not really a part of who we really are- I mean we have white privilege and some physical characteristics in common, but we have no white culture, we're not descended from Whiteland, and the WP ideas about race are bullshit. I think that could help erode white supremacy, and at the very least it can't hurt.
Maybe this time I was clearer in expressing myself.
As far as the people I mentioned, I don't know what you mean when you say that it isn't white enough for them. The three people I mentioned (and I could addd Bill Fletcher to this) have made statements that it's important for White people to understand that they're not really white, or that it's important for people to identify more with their ethnic group, not the "white race."

"Oh and "Barbary Falcon", you are more likely to get beat down at a Kolovrat concert for being American than I am any day of the week."
Oh Rus, you and your pathetic attempts at misinformation. A quick look at the list of victims (both surviving and the dead) of the Russian skins shows overwhelming predominance of tchurkas, like yourself, from "Kavkaz" and Central Asia. All with Islamic surnames that end with Russian patronymic suffixes "-ov" or "-ev", again like you. On the other hand, I have yet to hear of attacks on American citizens, who aren't people of color.
"And the funny thing is imagining you screaming "BUT I'M WHITE!!! I'M WHITE!!!" To no avail."
And even more funnier thing would be imagining you screaming "But I'm Russian!! A Russian citizen!!!" while holding up your Russian passport. To no avail, of course.
After all, I know that in Russia, citizens are actually distinguished between being autochtonous Russians (Russki) and the civic ones who happen to have Russian passports (Rossianin). Perhaps other countries are ought to follow this example, since I find it misleading at how the singer M.I.A, the Sri Lankan Tamil, is called "British." Or Arash, the Iranian Azeri who happens to reside in Sweden, is referred to as the "Swedish singer" despite having zero semblance to the actual Swedes.
#20 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 22, 2010 @ 2:27 am
Above all though, there is a paradox that makes solving this racial problem very difficult. It is thus: White Americans aren't "white" because there is no such ethnicity and all European descended Americans come from different groups, many of which had antagonisms which survived in America for quite some time. On the other hand, an Irish American or a German American is not Irish nor German in Ireland or Germany. Think about how often Americans say "I'm Irish!"(particularly on St. Paddy's day). The fact is that in Ireland that kind of thing pisses people off to no end. Ditto for Scots, Germans, English, pretty much anybody. Maybe your ancestors came from that country but they grew up in an entirely different culture, and in some cases terrain. Hence, we are American above all. This is not some kind of patriotic statement, it's just a cultural fact.
#21 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 22, 2010 @ 12:17 pm
Barbary, what you know about Russia you most likely read on racialist forums and the internet, which is to say you obviously don't know jack about Russia. You haven't heard of them attacking American citizens- that's cute. Believe me you go to Europe some day and you are going to learn a very important lesson about how much "white" outside of America.
It's sad and pathetic that you try to live vicariously through them. Let me tell you who those losers DON'T attack. The Chechen gangsters and other mafiosi who actually are ruining Russia- they wouldn't go anywhere near them. They attack Tajik and Uzbek street sweepers and cooks, always 10 on 1. They know that if they cross any Chechens they and their whole family will have their throat cut, and the police won't do a damned thing about it. Hell, the police would probably give up the addresses of the Nazi warrior-wannabes.
So let's hear it Barbary, the wannabe Russian. Tell us all about "white culture." Define "white culture". You can't preserve that which doesn't exist, so make your case, or continue being a frustrated little American wishing he were Russian.

Guess what? All of you "anti-racist" lefty, communist types are going to be killing and eating each other very soon as your lords and masters – the Zionist JEWS take the global economy down a few more notches. WW3 is around the corner and you will be at each others throats! Meanwhile, us "irrational" (non-existent & non-cultured according to you people) Whites will be blasting our way to a new and better future without all of the scum and traitors that were nothing more than an infestation of fleas on the old dog. The vain and the useless will perish in a global conflagration that is about to start. And, I wish you all no luck whatsoever!

"Barbary, what you know about Russia you most likely read on racialist forums"
Genius, was I even talking about Russia itself? And the information about the skinhead attacks (which was my actual point) I got it from Amnesty International and Sova Center, the human rights organization in Russia. I don't even waste a second of my time visiting places run by Hitler worshipers.
"Believe me you go to Europe some day and you are going to learn a very important lesson about how much "white" outside of America."
How much "white" what? Can't you at least pretend to sound smart, and write a complete sentence?
And as far as the "white people" go, the acknowledgment of their existence in Europe often comes from unexpected people and in unexpected places. Like during the race riots in France couple of years back, when the Muslim "French" thugs went on a rampage, where they attacked the actual native ethnic French people and vandalized/burnt their cars, homes, businesses and other property. All the while explicitly screaming "Kill the WHITE Frenchmen!!" on top of their lungs. All of that in a country that is so "enlightened", its constitution states that the "Frenchman" is anyone who speaks the French language and has a French passport, and where the law forbids the census from gathering information on the citizens' race/religion. Or the self-hating antifas/anarchists who call for utter destruction of "white" middle class bourgeoisie.
"if they cross any Chechens they and their whole family will have their throat cut"
ANY Chechen, you say. Again, you with your lies. Unless that Chechen in question's last name happens to be Kadyrov or Basaev, you won't even hear as much as a dog barking about it. Considering how a Chechen life is worth approximately zero within Chechnya itself, it takes no imagination to see that it's not valued much outside of it either. There have been plenty of attacks and murders of "Kavkaz" peoples by ultras, Chechens included. And so far, none of the perpetrators or their families have been harmed.
And now onto your last gem
"Russia, a country with rampant HIV, corruption beyond belief, and no values whatsoever."
Here's a big, classified secret that I'll let you in on; we got all of those things here in U.S. too, bud. Augmented by the Third World immigration, in fact. No reason to start idolizing Russia indeed. And yet the fact that you have chosen live there, that doesn't say much about your own ancestral Islamic homeland itself, now does it?
#25 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 23, 2010 @ 3:01 am
Hi R. James. Did you come here to define "white culture", or just spout off more frustrated fantasies like your wannabe-Russian buddy Barbary?
See R, "whites" aren't going to be doing anything collectively because "whites" doesn't mean anything. Besides, if your whole WN narrative were true, "whites" would logically be the stupidest, most worthless "race" on the planet- after all, they keep getting utterly dominated by a tiny minority of Jews every time.

Thank you for proving my point Barbary, everything you know about Russia, or the situation in Russia(since you were too dense to figure that out), comes from the internet. You sit behind your computer screen and cheer for a worthless movement that most Russians don't give a damn about. Even better- as Putin and Medvedev wish to open the country to more foreign investment, they have started cracking down on these people. Unlike in America where there are concepts like freedom of speech, there is no such thing here. So if the skins get out of line they will be crushed in a week.
And the best example you have of "whiteness" in Europe is some unsourced story about riots in France? It still doesn't change the fact that the overwhelming majority of French people, "white" or otherwise, will sooner identify themselves as French before believing in some mythical equality with Germans, English, Italians, etc.
Lastly, if you actually think the HIV rate in Russia is equivalent to that in the US(and there is no proof it has anything to do with third world immigration either), your ignorance knows no bounds. In America people sometimes break the law to get ahead. In Russia, people MUST break the law one way or another to survive. Oh those glorious WHITE GENES the Russians have!!!
So Barbary, enough of your frustrated, ignorant, Russian-wannabe rants. You've shown the most dedication in holding a debate here, so you should be the champion and tell us all what "white culture" is and who is "white."

Ruslan Amirkhanov said,
"everything you know about Russia, or the situation in Russia (since you were too dense to figure that out), comes from the internet"
And also from books, research papers by scholars, news reports and international rankings. Which makes us even, since you as a resident of Russia, also know everything that currently goes on in U.S through Internet and media. Your skull must be denser than that of a Circassian, if you can't figure it out.
"Even better- as Putin and Medvedev wish to open the country to more foreign investment, they have started cracking down on these people."
Yes, of course they promised that they'll do it. Just like they also promised to make Russia prosperous, reduce crime, eliminate corruption, and improve public health care. Yet Russia is still "a country with rampant HIV, corruption beyond belief, and no values whatsoever", as you yourself put it. And the skins are still roaming the streets, slashing, bashing and stomping. So basically whatever the great heroic duo of Vlad and Dimka say, is just nothing more than a lip service that's worth nil.
Even more peculiar is how you express such trust and confidence in Putin's promises. Come on buddy, didn't I already tell you to at least PRETEND that you're smart.
"Unlike in America where there are concepts like freedom of speech, there is no such thing here. So if the skins get out of line they will be crushed in a week"
Well, since the Russian ultras have broken pretty much every law known to both God and man, what EXACTLY they have to do to be considered "out of line"?

Actually, that fact has been reported (or at least mentioned) in several press reports, including BBC World News, Fox News, Christian Science Monitor and CNN. LOOK IT UP.
"the overwhelming majority of French people, will sooner identify themselves as French before believing in some mythical equality with Germans, English, Italians"
As far as that "mythical equality with Germans, English and Italians" goes, the French have actually done that with the two out of those three aforementioned peoples. It's called Switzerland.
"and there is no proof it has anything to do with third world immigration either"
Oh, those vile and evil scientists must be lying
And so are these dirtbag journalists
But hey, great news. Obama's administration has lifted the entry ban for those foreigners with AIDS/HIV, so that they can now come to U.S and have much more chances at infecting Americans.
"your ignorance knows no bounds"
Aww, how adorable. You pushing your own description onto others.
"In Russia, people MUST break the law one way or another to survive."
"MUST break the law" just to survive, you say? Is Russia truly SUCH a terrible and an atrocious place? Sorry, my bad. I shouldn't question your infinite wisdom, since you reside in Russia, and I don't. But since you ARE still alive (and can afford your own computer and Internet), you yourself must be quite a bandit and an outlaw.
And last, but not least;
"you should be the champion and tell us all what "white culture" is and who is "white.""
I'm no anthropology or genetics scientist, so I'm in no position give a precise and fancily-written definition of who are "whites" and what constitutes "white culture."
However, Rus, might I suggest you take your question on what exactly are "white people" and "white culture" to the rap "artists" Public Enemy, The Coup and Rage Against the Machine? Considering that it's those two things they spew their raw, diarrhea-like hatred against, in their so-called "music", you should be able to get a good answer from them to your such good question.
Since you couldn't provide a real response to the points that I've made, preferring instead to reply with a barrage of nonsense gabble, YOU FAIL. Epically.
#30 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 24, 2010 @ 6:43 am
By the way, if you can't get around to defining "white culture" or the "white race"(it's ok, it's a common problem), maybe you could at least explain what the hell "tchurkas" is supposed to be. Did you mean Cherkess? Because that's a specific Caucasian nationality. Caucasian peoples by the way, are the ancestors of Indo-Europeans and Europeans in general(ever hear that term Caucasoid). You Russian skin heroes, being morons, ignore this irony. Oh well, they'd be even more angry if they knew how much Turk blood they have in them from the Kypchaks, Pechenegs, Bulgars, and so on.
#31 Comment By Ruslan Amirkhanov On August 24, 2010 @ 8:32 am
"And the skins are still roaming the streets, slashing, bashing and stomping. "
Hilarious. Obviously I must be missing something. I've been here for over four years and I can count the number of times I've seen any skinhead on one hand. Next you'll tell me purple elephants are walking around as well.
The fact is the standard of living in Russia is far worse than the US(and I'm not originally from Russia, moron, so I know the difference).
As for your "points" you really haven't made any. French people are not Germans, nor are they English or Irish. You are not European, you are American. You share more in common with American Latinos and blacks than any European nationality, especially your beloved Russians.
I asked you to define white people and white culture. Do you need to be an anthropologist to stand up for such things? If so, you ought to drop out of the movement now. And frankly I can care less what Rage Against the Machine or NWA says about ethnicity or nationality.
The ironic thing here is your failure to provide concrete European examples of a "white race"- the best you can point to is a bunch of French rioters, some of whom made comments about "white Frenchmen", and various rap groups. Nobody is suggesting that "white people" isn't a well-established social construct. We can generally look at anyone and say- "he/she is white". The problem is if we try to define "white" as some kind of race throughout the world. Then if we use a certain collection of facial features and skin tone as we use in America or parts of Europe- we would have a big problem. We would find "whites" everywhere from the Caucasus and Middle East well into Central Asia, including Pakistan and Afghanistan. And yet culturally these people have virtually nothing in common, and I highly doubt Rage Against the Machine is raging against Tajiks or Iranians in any of their songs(wait a minute, who the hell cares about Rage Against the Machine anymore anyway?).

And let me tell you something all your books and internet sites apparently never did- on any given intersection or market place in Moscow you will see far more Caucasians/Turks than you will ever see skinheads in in this town. Hell I've even seen a Terek Grozny match where a group of Chechen fans marched with their Ichkeria flags held high, as police just watched. This is the other reason why they only attack isolated people, with huge ratios and weapons. If they pulled that shit in most areas where Caucasians/Turks work and live, they would be dead.

Ruslan Amirkhanov said,
"Caucasian peoples by the way, are the ancestors of Indo-Europeans"
The ancestors of Indo-Europeans originated in the Eurasian steppes, in what is now Ukraine and Southern Russia. And can you at least explain what relation is there between the Indo-European languages and those guttural, animal-like sounds that the linguists call "North/South Caucasian languages"? None. The only indigenous non-Indo-European peoples of Europe (outside the Finno-Ugric group) are the Basques, who inhabit the Pyrenees mountains of Southern France and Northern Spain. And Basque is a language with no known relatives. There have been numerous crackpot theories in the past that due its extremely unusual vocabulary, ergative/agglutative grammar and lack of grammatical gender, Basque is somehow related to Caucasian languages like Chechen or Georgian. Thankfully, that has been disproved long ago. The only native Indo-European languages that are spoken in Caucasus are Armenian and the Indo-Iranian Kurdish, Ossetian and Talysh languages, the ancestors of whose speakers migrated from the steppes few thousand years ago.
"if they knew how much Turk blood they have in them from the Kypchaks, Pechenegs, Bulgars, and so on."
Due to invasions and conquests that Russia was forced to endure in its early history, and the rapes that accompanied those invasions, of course there is going to be some kind of outside genetic influence from many hundreds years ago. And so what? There was plenty of Viking invaders (Varangians) who also had their way with Russian women. Does that make the Russian people Norwegian or Swedish? No. Likewise, there's far more of Finno-Ugric genetic influence due to invasions of Russian lands by Magyars, Tchuds and Permians, Again, does that mean that Russians can be called Finns, Estonians or Hungarians? Of course not. Just like the Mexica Movement has said about the few drops of white blood that Chicanos carry, describing it as "a cancerous scar that pollutes our people's blood", the same can be said of the genes of the invaders.

Must have taken you a long time on Wikipedia. No matter, I was busy fighting through the legions of Russian skinheads who "stomp around Moscow" according to you.
Your linguistic comparisons between Indo-European and Caucasian languages is ridiculous. By your logic then Finns and Magyars(along with Basques) aren't European either. Also if you had actually spent more time studying history you would know that Russian mixing with Turks is not something that began with the Mongol invasion- Kypchak Turks, Bulgars, and Pechenegs occupied the Steppes as far as Ukraine for quite some time.
My question for you is what difference does it make. Earlier on you made the comment to the effect of "as dumb as a Circassian." Have you ever met a Circassian? Whatever the flaws of any individual Circassian, it wasn't Circassians who ran one of the richest countries(in terms of natural resources) into the ground. Russia isn't under the thumb of Circassian oligarchs and corrupt bureaucrats.
Moreover- why is it you seem only to be able to identify "whites" via the words of groups like this "Mexica" movement, or other extremists who nobody cares about? I mean there needs to be some objective standard to measure by. In general, we do not debate about who is Han Chinese, Japanese, Russian, French, or whatever. You may quibble over origin vs. citizenship but either way, most people don't need to define French, German, Irish, or whatever, via the outbursts of some extremist group who is opposed to that particular nationality. That is to say, we don't define Serbs by the ideas of the Ustasi, so to speak.
In short, all this time you have, besides displaying incredible ignorance, failed to define your precious "white people". You have only been able to point to various people using "white people" in a negative way. Hell, even they don't define it. Does Rage Against the Machine define white people? Does NWA rap about Poles in Poland or Russians in Russia? No.
Moreover- the Mexica movement can say whatever they want about the undeniable presence of European genes in the Latino population- but it doesn't matter. These genetics are not "cancerous" and they are as idiotic to think of them as such as you are to believe that Cacuasians or Turkic genes in Russians somehow detract from Russians as a people. Science has identified various genes, it has thus far not proven any significant value from having certain ratios and collections of these various genes.
Lastly, just to shatter any illusion you might have of Russia being some savior of your undefinable race- keep in mind that while you may travel around Moscow for well over a year without seeing a single skinhead, on any given day you will not only see hundreds of Caucasians and Central Asians, but also plenty of African immigrants as well. The Russians leave, the Turks and Caucasians fill the gap. You are on the losing side of history.

"Must have taken you a long time on Wikipedia"
Actually, I have a social life and got better things to do than sit in front of a computer all day, unlike you. But hey, nice attempt at "Kavkaz" humor.
"Your linguistic comparisons between Indo-European and Caucasian languages is ridiculous."
Moron, I wasn't even comparing the Indo European languages with Caucasian ones, I was saying how there's no semblance between them whatsoever.
"By your logic then Finns and Magyars(along with Basques) aren't European either."
They are Europeans, even though they don't speak Indo-European languages, because linguistic affiliation has no relation with race. Just because Bengalis' language is Indo-European, does that make them "white"? No, they're semi-Australoid.
"You share more in common with American Latinos"
If by that, you mean Andy Garcia and Charlie Sheen kind of "Latinos", then yes, I agree with you completely.
"if we use a certain collection of facial features and skin tone as we use in America or parts of Europe- we would have a big problem. We would find "whites" everywhere from the Caucasus and Middle East well into Central Asia, including Pakistan and Afghanistan."
Because historically, in the ancient times , the whites existed throughout the Near East, Central Asia and North Africa. But due to tumultuous events in the past 1600 years (epidemics, wars, mass famines, invasions by the Huns, Muslim Arabs, and worst of all, the Mongols) have largely extirpated them in those places. For instance many ancient Greek historians (such as Herodotus) described the ancient Iranic peoples such as Persians, Sogdians, Medes and Scythians as being tall, pale-skinned and with light colored hair and eyes. Looking at the modern-day major Iranic people, like Kurds, Farsiwan Iranians, and Pashtuns, vast majority of them most certainly do not fit those description given above. In Persia, in the past 1400 years, with each successive foreign invasion, first by the Arabs, then by Turks, then by Mongols, and then by Turks again, the original Persian peoples' numbers were depleted. This is especially true with the Mongol invasions which resulted in a population drop anywhere between 60 to 80%. And as the ethnic Persians were disappearing, those above mentioned invaders' descendants took up their place. With rapes of local women occurring, of course. I suspect that today's "Persians" of Iran is most part not even of the same stock as the Persians of the times of Cyrus, Darius and Xerxes. A similar thing can be said of Tajikistan and Afghanistan. That's why Tajiks, in terms of physical appearance, they look more like Jackie Chan or Hosni Mubarak, rather than Dolph Lundgren or Brigitte Bardot. Sure, there are some exceptions. But they are just that, a rare exception rather than a rule. A few relics of the old population that has somehow managed to survive into the modern age.

"Actually, I have a social life and got better things to do than sit in front of a computer all day, unlike you. But hey, nice attempt at "Kavkaz" humor. "
Sure you do, you WNs are known for your social lives. By the way, you do know I'm not Caucasian right?
"Moron, I wasn't even comparing the Indo European languages with Caucasian ones, I was saying how there's no semblance between them whatsoever. "
Read the sentence above and then figure out who the "moron" is.
"They are Europeans, even though they don't speak Indo-European languages, because linguistic affiliation has no relation with race. Just because Bengalis' language is Indo-European, does that make them "white"? No, they're semi-Australoid. "
What makes them "European" then? Finno-Ugrians and Magyars did not originate in Europe.
"If by that, you mean Andy Garcia and Charlie Sheen kind of "Latinos", then yes, I agree with you completely. "
Nope, any Latino that has lived in America for a considerable amount of time and speaks English fluently.
"Because historically, in the ancient times , the whites existed throughout the Near East, Central Asia and North Africa."
They weren't "whites" idiot. They were Greeks, Persians, or whatever.
". That's why Tajiks, in terms of physical appearance, they look more like Jackie Chan or Hosni Mubarak, rather than Dolph Lundgren or Brigitte Bardot."
So you actually believe there were ancient Persians running around looking like Dolph Lundgren? And were you aware that Tajiks don't generally resemble Mubarak or Jackie Chan in the slightest?

There is no excuse to delay the rule of law in areas under opposition control. The authorities should rein in volunteer security groups, establish a clear civilian authority for criminal justice, and make sure detainees get full due process rights. The people of Libya are all too familiar with arbitrary arrests and detention without charge from four decades of Muammar Gaddafi's rule. The opposition authorities should reject that abusive legacy and create a legal framework to ensure respect for Libyan and international law.
On the other side of the conflict, a three-person commission for the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) [official website] appointed to investigate violence in Libya published a report Wednesday finding that Gaddafi's forces have committed crimes against humanity [JURIST report] and war crimes under orders from Gaddafi and other high-ranking officials. The commission's 92-page report said Libyan authorities have committed crimes against humanity such as acts constituting murder, imprisonment, and other severe deprivations of physical liberties, torture, forced disappearances, and rape "as part of a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian population with knowledge of the attack." Last month, International Criminal Court (ICC) Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo [official websites] announced he is seeking arrest warrants for Gaddafi [JURIST report] and two others in his inner circle on charges of crimes against humanity.

GIFT (gamete intrafallopian transfer)
GIFT is an assisted reproductive procedure that involves removing a woman's eggs, mixing them with sperm and immediately placing them into your fallopian tube. One of the main differences between this procedure and in vitro fertilization (IVF) and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) procedures is that the fertilization process takes place inside the fallopian tubes rather than inside the laboratory. You must have healthy tubes for GIFT to work.

The main draw that I saw was the international opportunity. Germany in particular has very few non-bank-owned ATMs and very favorable ATM habits/demographics. With its Fortune 500 relationships in the U.S., I could see it quickly entering these markets with additional acquisitions in the future that could drive growth long-term. -

It lags significantly behind Google in search, while almost half of its traffic comes from Yahoo! Mail. Moreover, Google really makes its money from AdWords/AdSense and Yahoo!'s own publisher programs haven't been nearly as competitive.
Display revenues were down 11% last quarter and PPC revenues down 10%, but the key fact was that clicks were up 16% with pricing down 7%. So, people are paying less for ads when Yahoo! keeps spending money try to scale their reach.
And finally, everyone's moving to mobile and nobody seems to be able to monetize it. The next real winner in the online space will be whoever figures that out the best, in my opinion. -

For example, suppose I buy a used or new Samsung TV online and then go to Best Buy to pick up some AV cables.

3 Reasons Delcath Systems Appears Undervalued [View article]
Again, I'm not an owner of the stock yet and everything written (minus the error above) was based on information from the company, who based their figures on their own figures (e.g. for ASP costs), LEK Consulting and GLOBOCAN. Moreover, I see this as a short-term opportunity with upcoming catalysts than a long-term play.
Finally, if the stock goes bankrupt, as many have suggested, there's obviously an opportunity to double your money by shorting the stock. Price has very little to do with anything when short selling a company, just short more shares to make up for the dollar difference. -
3 Reasons Delcath Systems Appears Undervalued [View article]
I sourced all of the data from the company's presentation that you can download in PDF form here: http://bit.ly/Witish (page 16).
The E.U. market constitutes the bulk of the $2.3 billion estimate (as I mention in the article saying "driven by multi-histology opportunities in the European Union"). The presentation lists the E.U. market as $2.2 billion and the U.S. initial market as $100 million in 2013, if approved.
The reference to multi-billion opportunity at the end is implying a long-term time horizon and not an immediate market (as indicated, again, by "could eventually see"). This would obviously include more than the ocular melanoma market to include the same indications being targeted in the E.U. The presentation estimates this opportunity to be $2.6 billion, if approved, over the long-term.
I apologize for the confusion, but it appears there are a lot of shorts in this stock getting very angry at me for writing the article. I am not long yet, and if so for the short-term, just writing on a company that I was researching and found interesting... -

How And Why To Invest In Abbott And AbbVie [View article]
One point in my article is that spin offs differ in that most spin offs increase shareholder value (see the studies mentioned in the article). Spin offs allow two business entities to be valued separately, which typically results in a higher market valuation when adding them.
There are indeed many situations where spin offs don't work out, but the article focused on this particular situation and why I think it will work out in the end. I think the split made a lot of sense for the reasons listed above and it will be mutually beneficial to both companies. -

The Four Hour Tour: Disney's Animal KingdomDisney's Animal Kingdom, Walt Disney World, Lake Buena Vista, Florida [Map]Theme Park Insider's "Four-Hour Tours" are designed to get you and your family to the top attractions in the world's top theme parks... before anyone can get tired and cranky. The attractions and restaurants selected for this tour are those most highly rated by Theme Park Insider readers. When to go: Disney's Animal Kingdom is the newest of the four Walt Disney World theme parks. Like the others, it is open 365 days a year, although opening and closing times vary. If you are traveling without kids, try to visit on a school day to avoid the largest crowds. If you need to visit during a school vacation, try at least to avoid the week between Christmas and New Year's and the Fourth of July. If you are not staying at a Disney World hotel, avoid visiting Animal Kingdom on its Extra Magic Hours days, as Disney's hotel guests get into those parks early on those days, inflating wait times for visitors who arrive at the park's normal opening time. Before you go: Buy your Walt Disney World tickets online at Disney World's website. For advice on picking the right ticket, see our guide to Disney World tickets, keeping in mind that for the Four-Hour Tour, you will *not* need the park-hopper option. When you get there: Plan to arrive at the park's front gate before the park opens in the morning, leaving yourself time to park and either walk or take a tram from the parking lot to the front gate. You can check Animal Kingdom's opening time via Disney World's website. 1. Turn right when you reach the Tree of Life and head into the park's Asia section, where you will start your day with a ride on Expedition Everest. 2. After Everest, head back through Asia and into the Africa section of the park, for a trip on Kilimanjaro Safaris. 3. Head back across the Discovery River into the Camp Minnie-Mickey section of the park and get in line for the next Festival of the Lion King show. 4. After watching Lion King, cut back past the Tree of Life to Dinoland USA. Here, you have decision to make. If you have one hour or less before the next performance of Finding Nemo - The Musical, quickly detour over to Dinosaur to pick up Fastpasses, Disney's rider reservation tickets, for that ride, then go back and wait for Nemo. If the next Nemo performance is more than one hour away, and the wait is less 45 minutes for Dinosaur, ride Dinosaur now. 5. If you saw Nemo first, now use your Fastpass to skip the stand-by line and ride Dinosaur. If you rode Dinosaur already, now is time for Finding Nemo. 6. Lunchtime. Neither of Animal Kingdom's two table service restaurants, Yak & Yeti nor the Rainforest Cafe, have earned an enthusiastic rating from Theme Park Insider readers. Therefore, we recommend that you choose instead to eat at Downtown Disney if you want a sit-down lunch. If folks in your group are hungry right now, though, TPI readers do recommend the counter-service Flame Tree Barbecue. Readers' OpinionsFrom James Rao on April 17, 2008 at 4:02 PM
Nice plan, Robert. I think it works fine. If you add an extra attraction for the off season traveler, IT'S TOUGH TO BE A BUG is a real winner. And, I happen to like the Kali River Rapids quite a bit, however, the best time to catch that one is right before you leave so you don't have to tour soaked. As for restaurants, I think Yak and Yeti is worth the effort. The appetizers and desserts are universally given a thumbs up, just some of the entrees are hit or miss. The theming of the restaurant makes it a real winner. And it certainly fits the park's overall theme. From Kelly Smith on April 17, 2008 at 3:40 PM
Looks good, just one quick note -- Tusker House is now officially a table service restaurant, but it's a buffet (supposedly somewhat similar to Boma, but I've never eaten there). From Robert Niles on April 17, 2008 at 6:57 PM
I'm trying to steer clear of the buffets for lunch on the tours. I'm figuring that after the morning, you want to sit and have someone wait on you. From Paul Jeffs on April 18, 2008 at 7:57 AM
I'd recommend hitting 'Kilimanjaro Safaris' either first thing in the morning or last thing at night as the animals tend to just hide in the shade or sleep in the sun from mid-morning to to mid-afternoon. AK is one of the best examples of stop-and-smell-the-roses parks, and I don't envy anyone who has to squeeze it all into 4 hours. Sure, you can ride the biggies, but you'll be missing some superb attention to detail. From Robert Niles on April 18, 2008 at 10:20 AM
I think that one of the advantages of these tour is that, by getting you through all the top attractions early in the day, it frees up your afternoon and evening for unstructured "stop and smell the roses" wandering, without feeling pressure to get to one of the big rides. (Since you've already done them.) From Sylvain Comeau on April 19, 2008 at 12:22 PM
Why double back to Kilimanjaro Safaris after Everest? Dinosaur is much closer. I say grab a Fastpass for Safaris first thing in the morning, then make a beeline for Everest. Then go to Dinosaur, which is nearby Everest, and by then your Fastpass for Safaris should be valid. If it's not yet, you probably have time for It's Tough to be a Bug, then Safari. From Shannon Beauchemin on April 21, 2008 at 5:02 PM
You didn't include the best 3-D/4-d in Disneyworld, It's Tough to be a Bug. This is always a must do attraction. This article has been archived and is no longer accepting comments.

Tebow ROOKIE yeer. Leads the broncos to the same place, soley on his back. The masses are stooped. It's no wonder the best coach gives him a chance. Tebow. Could end up a stronger/faster Steve young
The Broncos won a playoff game with Tebow.

Tebow ROOKIE yeer. Leads the broncos to the same place, soley on his back. The masses are stooped. It's no wonder the best coach gives him a chance. Tebow. Could end up a stronger/faster Steve young
Couldn't agree with you more. Tebow is tough. If he stays healthy he'll be around a long time.
I'm hoping Elway see's whats happening and makes a play for him at just the right time.

it's more lie the revenue tebow brings in in gear and jersey sales. soon tommy brady will be gone. New England needs another pretty face with an innocent smile and a bullet arm.
This thread is your wet dream.
How stupid do all of you sound now!?! Peyton is having the best year of his career. In fact he is having the best year in NFL history. 5-0, 20 TDs, 136.4 rating, no help from the 29th ranked defense, and only a single pick. Manning all day everyday. Go Broncos!
He is getting more company today (at the unemployment line) in Matt Flynn, although I do believe Matt made a lot more money for doing even less.
Both of them have been dumped by 3 teams each, doubtful they will ever find a team interested in their 'talents'.
Once your out of the league rarely do you return, JaWalrus made some news of a comeback over the summer, he is back in Alabama now with a extra strong glass of drank.
Honestly I would rather have RG3 instead of Luck - Skip Bayless and Jamele Hill (sarcasm)

Exactly = Huh? That is about as dumb as saying someone would rather want Tebow over Manning.

Nothing ever good happens when you bring back old threads to life.
I never saw this thread! It is hilarious, even AIYK did his version of cussing! Too funny!
I did a while back and laughed.
Total Comments (1616)
I don`t know if you are aware of AIYK, he always preaches about freedom of speech then reports any cussing on his threads, but on here he did all the &*%$#^ which means cussing...........too funny!His Tebow obsession is great stuff too.
Will Tebow even play another down in the NFL? Out of the 32 starters is he better than any of them? Not sure as a QB like Blaine Gabbert is probably better.
Total Comments (1616)
he may be better than a few QB`s as far as wanting to win, and going for it, but I sure wouldn`t want him on my team.I heard some Favre talk last week, and I would want him over Tebow.
Favre! Wow you know what is funny is he probably would come back for a few games if a team gave him a great offer but who could blame him. I bet the guy has trouble walking at this point though? He played so long and took a beating his last season with Minny.

So it was you Jim that brought back this classic thread. I am looking forward to your game Sunday night.
You win that one and respect will follow, win both against Peyton and folks will start with the perfect season babble. Actually I think it would be better nowadays to lose one just to shut up the media.
Remember to keep your posts clean. Profanity will get filtered, and offensive comments will be removed.

I really meant "Tour de France", the world's most famous bicycle race. Now that I am a bit of a cyclist, the race has taken new meaning. This means I can actually watch a rather boring event like this, though the last mile or two are generally the best or most action-packed. I know I will never wear the famous yellow jersey, given to the winner of each stage, and worn by the leader of the race.
Most people do not know the race started in 1903, as a means to increase paper sales for the magazine L'Auto. It was stopped twice for both World Wars. This year's race is the 100th year of racing. Though the route changes each year, the format stays the same. The Tour is so popular in Europe that over a million people line the route each year. Media coverage extends to 10 different languages.
I find it difficult to root for these racers, knowing that so many of them were juicing, like Floyd Landis and Lance Armstrong. Doping has plagued the race since its beginning. Fortunately, the race contains so many colorful characters over the years. The greatest professional racer ever is considered to be Eddy Merckx from Belgium. He won the Tour de France and the Gira d'Italia five times each.
Fast Eddy
Actually, there are four Americans who could win. They are Tejay van Garderen of BMC Racing, Andrew Talansky of Garmin-Sharp, Taylor Phinney of BMC Racing, and Joe Dombrowski of Team Sky. A total of 219 riders started the race. Each day, some participants drop out due to injury or failure to achieve the minimum amount of time, based on the leader's time.
Popular American rider, Andy Schleck
One of the most remarkable, but logical aspects of the race, is that it is free, for the entire course. The only ticket required would be VIP seating near some of the finish lines. How would you even begin to collect tickets or control the crowd? They line the course, often spilling into the roads and city streets.
Some other numbers related to the course are:
21 stages, and 2 rest days.
200 bottles of water or drink mix riders are likely to consume during the race, depending on the temperature.
3 stages in Corsica for the first time in tour history.
Alpe d'Huez has 42 switchbacks. Riders will climb the Alps twice in one day.
90 kilometers of time trials, one team and two individual.
5 is the number of bikes most teams bring, per rider, with 3 for the road and 2 for time trials.
160,000 is the average number of calories that racers will consume during the three week tour.
29 climbs ranked as Category 2, Category 1, and HC* or beyond category.
*too challenging to fit into conventional listings
Though I am hardly a Francophile, I cannot imagine a more spectacular ending to the race than the Champs-Elysees. It might be fun to watch some of the race, then head up to the Champagne region and taste champagne for a week or so. Anyone interested?

Critic Reviews
The scenes in the Peking Opera School, where boys are caned for doing wrong or right, are no less horrifying than the later tableaus of public humiliation at the hands of the Maoists. Full Review
This is entertaining filmmaking on a grand scale. Full Review
Chen's remarkable movie uses an unusual love triangle to telescope more than 50 years of tumultuous Chinese history. Full Review
Appropriately operatic, Chen's visually spectacular epic is sumptuous in every respect. Intelligent, enthralling, rhapsodic. Full Review
One of those very rare film spectacles that deliver just about everything the ads are likely to promise. Full Review
The film flows with such urgency that all its connections seem logical. And it is filmed with such visual splendor that possible objections are swept aside. Full Review
Like Cheung's ethereally plaintive voice, the movie is a siren song that's appealing at first, but held too long. It becomes an increasing whine. Full Review
The director carries us through this early history with impressive sensitivity; he has a beautiful, graceful touch, both with the camera and with his actors. Full Review
A motion picture experience that few will soon forget after leaving the theater. Full Review

El Dorado IPA - Toppling Goliath Brewing Company

4.22/5 rDev +3.2%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Served in a pint glass at Red's. Menu says 5.6% ABV.
A: Pours a clear golden color with one-half finger of nearly white head. Great lace but little retention.
S: Nice dose of light, sweet fruit.
T: Kiwi, light but full-flavored. Later in the beer, a creamy/buttery taste unfolds. Bitterness is soft and a bit peppery.
M: Medium mouthfeel with a light creaminess.
O: I like this quite a bit. The El Dorado hop flavor profile is quite different and it was nice to try a beer that shows this off. This is my first beer from Toppling Goliath and if the rest are this good, I'm sure I'll be seeing more of them in the future. Can't wait until they start bottling later this year.
Serving type: on-tap

4.38/5 rDev +7.1%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
A - Very hazy gold color with a slight apricot hue. Good, creamy, smooth head that sticks around for a while.
S - Interesting aroma. Not overly hoppy but there is a good hoppy aroma. Some tropical and orchard fruit with a fair amount of grapefruit and tangerine sweetness.
T - A touch more hoppiness compared to the aroma. Similar flavor profile with grapefruit, tangerine, peach, sweet pear, and overall tropical and stone fruit. A decent malt background provides a nice balance. A slightly bitter finish. Well balanced with a nice fruity hoppy flavor.
M - Medium body with good carbonation. Very smooth and creamy.
D - Very easy to drink. Good balance with the hops providing the heft of the flavor.
Notes: On-tap at Shorts in Iowa City (thanks for the heads up spoonhawk). Very good IPA and my first experience with El Dorado hops. Well balanced but with lots of tropical and stone fruit. So easy to drink and refreshing. Right up there for my favorite Iowa beers and I am excited to try more of Toppling Goliath's stuff once they get bottling it. Another positive step for Iowa breweries.

---- Are Image Theft and Hotlinks Creating an Algo Disaster?
- 8:02 pm on Mar 9, 2011
(gmt 0)
It's funny how much we disagree, yet both seem to do alright P1R ...
There are plenty of folks who are not happy with that decision.
And plenty who are ... Me included.
Remember, the text alternative takes up visual display space and may interfere with surrounding text.
But doesn't in major browsers ... Were you misleading on purpose or have you not tested it? As long as you have a height and width set the text takes up the image size...
<img src="/img/p1r.gif" alt="If it were me, I surely WOULDN'T be taking the HTML5 advice and stuffing an alt attribute with an entire description like they show as examples. Remember, the text alternative takes up visual display space and may interfere with surrounding text.
I'd look at all the other methods available before putting more than 80 characters in the alt attribute. The W3 have recommended 80 characters as a suggested limit when composing a short text alternative.
In regards to the topic, don't let them hotlink! If you rely on image search for revenue, then you should plan on blocking all but those that you will allow to hotlink. Don't ask me how to do this either, talk to your dev. Let them know that you need to allow Google and maybe a handful of others to hotlink. All the rest get a 403 and/or a special message just for hotlinking swine! ;)" style="height:120px;width:120px;">
BTW For those who may be reading and actually considering following the HTML5 Spec rather than being 'stuck in the past' ... If you're wondering how Google may treat the use of the alt with some actual text in it ... The editor of the Dev Doc I linked above happens to be a Googler, so my guess is they know about the change and will handle it according to the spec.

How we change what others think, feel, believe and do |
Question Interrupt Techniques > Conversation techniques > Interrupting > Question Interrupt Description | Example | Discussion | See also DescriptionAsk them a question, preferably a closed question. If they do not answer it or their answer is long, then interrupt, ask them another one or tell them that they have not answered the first question (which you may re-phrase). When they reply, you can either ask another question or give your views on what they said or just sail off with your own comments on something else. ExampleDid Jennifer tell you to say that? When did you last see her? Sorry, you haven't yet told me when you saw Jennifer last -- was it yesterday? DiscussionWhen someone else asks us a question, we almost always feel bound to give them an answer -- to ignore the question would be rude. Closed questions lead to short answers, which forces them to answer quickly, after which you can take over. By using the Socratic questioning method, you can steer the to what you want them to think just by asking questions. See also |

Ipswich Will Be A Good Test -Thorn
City boss on trip to Portman Road Coventry City manager Andy Thorn feels that Monday night's trip to Portman Road to face Ipswich Town (7.45pm kick off) will be a good test for his players. Speaking to Sky Blue Player, Thorn said: "They have a good manager, players who have played in the Premiership and know their way around this division, so it will be a good test for us. "I'm more concerned about making sure we get to the game and kick off time prepared and ready to go. "There is good competition for places now. It's a nice squad to pick from."

Craigslist Deal of the Week: $1595 Castro Jr 1 Bdrm
Nothing like a rowdy night in the Castro to remind you how fun the lively neighborhood can be. Yes, there's no denying it's great destination for an evening of debauchery, but with a central location and some of the best weather you'll find in the city, it's also an incredible place to spend your days.
Problem is that the livability of the area is of course no secret, so inexpensive digs are usually hard to find. We've got the answer to that, though: this week's Craigslist deal, a junior one bedroom for just under $1600. The spot is located at Collingwood and 18th, just a block of Castro's main drag and not much further to the Castro MUNI stop (serving the M, L, and K lines) and F line, as well as countless restaurants, bars, and entertainment.
It's hard to get a feel for the size of the place based on the pics, but the hardwood floors and marble countertops in the kitchen are looking good to us, and the fact that they accept dogs and cats could make it a true score. Why not cruise by to find out for sure? Beautifully Renovated Jr 1 Bedroom
