A number of Hollywood celebs are calling for Americans to give up the Second Amendment.
The video below reveals their hypocrisy – many Hollywood actors calling for "enough is enough" have appeared in films where gun violence is a regular commodity and has made them wealthy.
Tell Hollywood their anti-Second Amendment propaganda is enough – and get their hands off the Constitution.
Note: the following video contains profanity.

Rayman, Globox, and the Teensies are off wandering through an enchanted forest when they discover a mysterious tent filled with a series of captivating paintings. As they look more closely, they notice each painting seems to tell the story of a mythical world. While focusing on a painting that shows a medieval land, they are suddenly sucked into the painting, entering the world, and the adventure begins. The gang must run, jump and fight their way through each world to save the day and discover the secrets of every legendary painting.

Brilliant game, well done.This review is from: Rayman Legends Wii U Games Ubisoft Pros: Fast paced platforming that's not necessarily required to play fast. When there is no numeric value associated with number of lives, I can freely explore the levels without having to worry about death. Cons: Nothing really. Other Thoughts: Outside of the unwanted delay, which left a pretty bad impression with me regarding the company, the game turns out really good. Did you find this review helpful? |

The IcoGrid package
Defines functions for dealing with a type of hexagon grid wrapped around a sphere. The full grid is composed of 20 smaller trianglular grids of hexagons, that fit together as an icosahedron with pentagons at the corners. Each grid cell is assigned an integer value, and we can get a list of the neighbors of a particular cell. We can also ask for a vector in 3d space that is the center of a particular cell. This would be well suited for a game played on a spherical world or a planetary environment simulator.

Course Descriptions
Code | LEAD |
Number | 579 |
Title | Academic Reading and Writing |
Units | 3 |
Description | This course offers intensive practice reading academic texts and writing academic papers, and it emphasizes argumentative and rhetorical elements, forms, and strategies. What is rhetoric? Rhetoric is the use of words or images to form attitudes or to induce actions in people. In addition to practicing critical reading and thinking skills, we will practice identifying, describing, and evaluating authors' arguments, claims, warrants (assumptions), and rhetorical patterns and strategies. We will demonstrate our rhetorical skills as both readers and writers. Many of our reading and writing assignments will require analyzing the rhetoric of argumentative texts. We will continue to work on fundamental academic writing skills: entering academic debates, crafting thesis statements, structuring essays, developing and unifying paragraphs, incorporating information and ideas from textual sources, providing logical coherence and appropriate transitions at sentence and paragraph levels, structuring sentences, using appropriate diction (word choice), and demonstrating a command of grammar and mechanics. In addition, we will hone our documentation skills using APA style. Our overall goal in this course is to achieve professional competence, proficiency, and independence in the processes of reading, writing, revising, and documenting sources within the academy. |

By David Bailey and Todd Melby
MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) - Minnesota's Democratic governor and Republican legislative leaders said on Thursday they had reached the framework of a budget agreement to end a two-week-old state government shutdown within days.
Democratic Governor Mark Dayton, Republican House Speaker Kurt Zellers and Republican Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch announced the deal that addresses a $5 billion budget deficit in a joint news conference outside the governor's office.
The Minnesota shutdown is the longest in recent U.S. memory and many of the debates over tax increases or spending cuts reflect the core of the ongoing debate in Washington over raising the debt ceiling and budget arguments in other states.
When asked when the shutdown would end, Dayton told reporters, "very soon, within days."
The broad shutdown reached 14 days on Thursday and has included the furlough of more than 22,000 state workers with a drag on Minnesota's economy that could raise the state unemployment rate by a full percentage point.
The shutdown came just before the July 4 holiday weekend, shuttering state-run campgrounds, rest stops, historical sites, and halting the sale of fishing licenses and lottery tickets.
Dayton said he would accept the financial terms of a Republican budget offer made hours before the shutdown began on July 1, if his opponents took policy issues and big state job cuts off the table and agreed to a $500 million bonding bill.
The details of the agreement were not completely clear. Dayton, Zellers and Koch met for three hours on Thursday afternoon and said they would work for hours to wrap up the details and bring the budget to a special legislative session.
"I expect to be here all weekend," Dayton said. "I expect to do everything around the clock because of the urgency of getting the lights back on and Minnesota back to work as soon as possible, and I think that will be very soon."
Koch and Zellers said they expected the agreement to have the support of the Republican caucuses. However, Dayton's proposals drew criticism from some Democratic lawmakers.
"At the end of the day we had to compromise. None of us got all of what we wanted," Zellers told reporters.
Dayton said he insisted on a comprehensive agreement and believed that could be completed very quickly and that the budget would protect what he saw as critical services.
"I said at the outset that there was no good or easy way to resolve a $5 billion deficit which we all inherited from our predecessors," Dayton said.
Minnesota's election in November of a Democratic governor and Republican House and Senate majorities not big enough to override his vetoes helped set the stage for the impasse.
Dayton and the top Republican legislators had not met in a week before Thursday. Fitch debt ratings agency pulled the state's AAA bond rating, partly over the shutdown and partly over long structural budget deficits.
The deal closes a $1.4 billion gap between the governor's proposed budget and the Republicans', half by delaying school aid payments and half by issuing state bonds against future revenue from a settlement with tobacco companies.
Dayton said the two-year budget would be very close to a midpoint between his proposals and Republican offers. It was expected to be in the neighborhood of $35.4 billion with the school aid shift and tobacco bonds.
The governor said he was hopeful a separate bonding bill, normally handled in even-numbered years in Minnesota, could be part of the deal, but was not required.
Dayton had proposed a budget of about $35.7 billion, with some tax or fee increases, none of which were included in the framework deal. Republicans had opposed any tax increases.
He said again on Thursday that he did not agree with the proposals to delay school aid payments and issue tobacco bonds, but would agree to the compromise.
The governor said earlier in the day that policy issues such as restrictions on stem cell research, abortions and collective bargaining were ones Republicans and Democrats were not likely to agree on in three months or even three years.
About 100 state road construction projects were suspended during the shutdown, leading to additional temporary layoffs of non-state workers. Gaming oversight was also suspended, forcing two horse racing tracks to close, leading to more layoffs.
Among other residents caught in the shutdown, new nurses have been unable to get state certificates needed to start work. People applying for their first driver's licenses have been out of luck, though current drivers can renew licenses.
Some licensing and permit renewals have been suspended, putting MillerCoors' ability to sell 39 brands in Minnesota in jeopardy as well as halting sales of alcohol to more than 300 bars, restaurants and liquor stores with expired permits.

This August 2012 photo shows doorways at Pueblo Bonito, Chaco Canyon, in northwestern New Mexico. Chaco Canyon, the center of a culture that flourished from the 800s to the 1100s, is run by the National Park Service and is accessible only via dirt road.
A road trip to the Four Corners region of the Southwest offers a window into Native American culture, from ruins older than any other man-made structure in the U.S., to glimpses of contemporary life amid the Navajo and Hopi. Named for the spot where the borders of four states — Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Arizona — intersect, the Four Corners region is also home to surreal landscapes like the Painted Desert and Monument Valley.

The standard Aprilia SL750 Shiver is just another funky naked bike – but the simple addition of a fairing turns it in to one of the best Italian all rounders you can buy. The Shiver GT is very competent, mixing practicality with style, performance and character for not a huge amount of cash.
600cc, 77bhp, 140mph, Insurance group 12
The new Yamaha XJ6 Diversion is the half-faired version of the Yamaha XJ6. It's more powerful, better handling and prettier than the trusty old Diversion of the late 80s and early 90s. But just like that old original, it offers practical, fun and above all, affordable biking. It's easy to ride, so it's perfect for new riders looking for their ...
600cc, 77bhp, 135mph, Insurance group 12
This is the naked version of the half-faired Yamaha XJ6 Diversion. Aside from the lack of fairing, it is exactly the same spec, but somehow it has transformed the Yamaha from sensible budget middleweight to exciting mini streetfighter. With its 'baby Yamaha FZ-1' looks and sit-up-and-beg riding position this is a very cheap way to get your rocks off. On ...
744cc, 48bhp, 115mph, Insurance group 10
The Moto Guzzi V7 Classic isn't perfect. It's underpowered slightly, a tad vibey at speed and the levers aren't span adjustable. But otherwise we struggle to find fault. The Moto Guzzi V7 Classic is stylish, useful, charismatic and simply a nice motorcycle to ride and own and, for the money, that's accomplishment enough. We'd have one instead of a Bonnie ...
897cc, 74bhp, 139mph, Insurance group 13
The Yamaha TDM900 is a streetbiking oddball that's as brilliant beating congestion as it is swinging bends. The parallel twin motor is spunky enough for fun, while the wide bars really let you take charge and hustle. It's such an easy motorcycle to ride you could do it with your eyes shut.

Why isn't the dramatic price increase in Nat Gas factoring into COP and other large gas producers earnings estimates? For Q1 its going to be a big unexpected plus!
maybe the Navy should enter the 21st Century and realize their is domestic supplies, in near unlimited amounts in the ground trapped in Shale all around the US. They should focus on national security, and not keep doing anti-fossil fuel propaganda for the tree hugging Obama wackos.
I hope you are just one of those shorts that are tying to cover today.
And have a lot inside at the strength of diesel, in both inventory trend, and demand.
Those hydrocrackers are putting out just the right product at the right time.
look for margins to explode.
the diesel inventory is about as low as the system can go, so pricing should continue upward from here.
problems in the rear view mirror.
last quarter was turnaround expenses. That plant is back at it, and heavy Canadian feedstock pricing is getting very attractive, as pipeline space into Superior is now on high % allowocation.
rinsanity is returning to being just nutsy regulatory stuff not industry killing reg.
crack spread dips were likely mostly mitigated with hedges.
plenty of distribution funds to keep the high dividend secure. Shorts should give up soon.
I see this returning to a 7-8% yielder with stable EPS margins in 6 months. worth waiting for.
my t-bonds cant drop 2% in yield.
Did anybody tell David that Lynn Swann is from the real USC??
I like the action today, up big on better than average volume. With all the days to cover, we could string several days in row of high % price gains. Just need the market , and the DC mess to clear the way.
wcs is often different than Bakken as far as discounts. with WCS, you do have the same transportation takeaway variability to transport to market. Although with WCS you also have added discounts associated with the process limitations that come with excess extra heavy crude that can at times overwhelm the online heavy crude process locations. Look for periods of very deep WCS discounting which helps margins at northern tier US refineries, such as Montana, and Superior. And if they can look in crude discounts at times of oversupply of Canadian heavies, then the profitability can be assured at least at the level needed to meet the distribution.
OK, but I want my specials back. HFC is still paying them.
This is all just noise. its a big ship and it doesn't veer too far off course very often. They are spending huge investment money on LNG and getting next to no revenue from it this year. By the end of next year, it should be a totally different story. Mr. Market should be saavy enough to show the expected added margin about 6 months ahead of expected production. Big moves between now and then will come due to delays, or schedule improvement, or announcement of more cost overruns. See example of Imperial on the near disaster over timing of Kearl startup.
you cant judge a refining company based on the quarter when they shut the plant down, hire hundreds of temporary contractors, and spend lots of money on replacement parts. They all do this every few years, and Im sure Superior plant had lots of deffered maintenance coming out of a sale. So, off we go, judge the DCF coveraged based on a couple of normal quarters.
KMP now diverged from AMJ by 17% over the past 12 months. Makes no sense. BUY KMP for the sure snap back.
look at the roller coaster pattern on this thing. it always seems to come back and make a new high. Down $10 from the peak now, huge opportunity. buying calls with both hands. Also, look at the last couple of months divergence between COP and CVX. They have the same drivers. Im guessing with world oil prices firm, to higher, that its CVX that is going to catch up to COP not the other way around.
these guys could cut the distribution, or worse, issue another load of stock, so its risky to jump in here and double down. But I know im not wrong on this, so taking the coward choice and buying Nov 30 calls hand over fist.
this confirms the Canadian supply strategy, where diluted heavy crude, and Bakken will compete for transportation alternatives going south. Refineries located north of Cushing will get the price discount. Should help Calumet once they are up and out of turnaround season. Looks good going forward to lock in some very good crude processing margins that more than cover the distribution.
You really cant export excess crude. its against US law. The excess gets to the GC , where it backs out some type of Crude Import. There is still plenty of crude coming into PAD II from oversees, and all it takes is $5-6/bbl discount to run the Perm Basin/ Eagle Ford crude instead. What can be exported is the finished products. So the refineries on the GC are going to run full, as long as the products can be shipped to destination at lower than local fuel costs. Western has a local advantage in selling clean product in their geographic refining area. nobody else there, and anyone wanting to compete would just as soon export product rather than run a truck distribution network all over Indian Country.
very rational story on the company financial presentation. especially like the hedging that locks in margins on fuel production that ASSURE the distribution. The only thing I like better than 10% yield, is 10% yield with a cash flow certainty. All they need to do is run the plants, and we win.
more than likely. just announced a 2 B$ added share repurchase. That's 10% of the existing market cap. For you nebiews, that means an automatic increase of 10% on earnings. this provides the answer of what they intend to do with all the cash this thing is throwing off.
Look for a divvy increase as well at the next opportunity to announce a payment, they will likely keep about the same balance between dividend and share repurchases.
What I cant figure out, is what they are planning to do with all the cash this is throwing off.??
They finished the capex on Detroit, they've paid for Texas City with 2 quarters of profit, they have total debt of about 3 quarters cash flow, they are buying a few shares, and pay a modest divvy, but what are they going to do going forward??
Lets take a look, so we have rising oil prices, lowering heavy Cad spread, increasing net backs, rising production, increasing early well production rates, and enough sites to drill for years, throw in increasing distributions, a high yield, and cap spend that is balance with income. So where in heck does Mr. Market get the idea that stock price should be declining??
this will turn around, and big time. the potential is worth waiting for, and leverage with options on any pull back.

This print, the first in a series, is my small attempt to deal with cancer. Combining a highly realistic and sensitive drawing of the human form with an invented and arbitrarily imposed geometry reveals something of the insidious feeling of invasion. This, along with the text, is intended to relate the pervasive and tragic nature of the disease.

Question: There have been quite a few resurrections from the TV graveyard as of late and I must say I love it, way more than Hollywood's obsession of making a sequel out of everything as well as making too-soon remakes. Firefly and Veronica Mars both have movie continuations, Dallas and Boy Meets World have spawned new series chronicling the next generation (I know you're not too big a fan of the new Dallas, but I have to say I welcome the return of Judith Light to the series), Netflix brought back Arrested Development for a fourth season, and Heroes is coming out with Heroes: Reborn next year. So I'm wondering what are your thoughts on this phenomenon, and are there any shows that you feel should be next in this craze.

Lots of vegan choices
Posted on 04 / 20 / 2013Hot & cold buffet + desserts. When I visited all the hot dishes were vegan (clearly labelled) and good choices of vegan desserts. Price per weight, not that expensive for zurich: 25 swiss francs for a large full plate + 3-7 for dessert + 4-6 for hot drinks or smoothies. Definitely recommend it, very busy at rush hours. Note that there is 2 tibits 20 meters away from each other so if one is full you can try the other one.

Plans to build a new home for the Martin Luther King Center moved forward when city councilors tentatively approved the purchase of land adjacent to the current location.
City Manager Greg Buckley executed a contract Jan. 3 with the owners of the two parcels, securing the city's option to purchase the property before July 12. The contract guarantees a purchase price of $24,000, which would paid from funding budgeted this year for facility repairs.
The acquisition, if it receives final approval Monday, would ensure that the popular community center remains at its present location, just north of Martin Luther King Street. Ward III City Councilor Derrick Reed, who is the center's programs director, said the community is attached to the present site.
The King Center began showing significant signs of wear and tear early last year after a series of small earthquakes rocked parts of eastern Oklahoma. An engineer who surveyed the structure said the deterioration was due to the temblors and an extended period of extreme drought.
The engineer deemed the building safe for occupancy but cited a need for "significant repairs to increase its longevity and long-term safety." A Tulsa company that specializes in foundation support work estimated it would cost nearly $102,000 to stabilize the structure.
With inadequate funding immediately available for repairs, city councilors formed a task force in February to consider options for reconstruction, relocation or both. Councilors on the task force said other parcels were considered, but those that might be available is unknown.
"It's a no-brainer to go ahead and get that land," said Ward III Councilor Randy Howard, who was part of the task force. "We can buy that land (with funds budgeted for repairs) and still have enough money to pay the architect."
Reed said about $5,000 of the $45,000 budgeted this fiscal year for King Center repairs were spent on minor fixes. He said most of those repairs were cosmetic, but the building that serves as home for a popular after-school program and numerous community events should remain viable until a new structure is built.
Reed said task force members are scheduled next week to interview architects who have expressed an interest in designing a new building. The task force will forward its recommendations to the City Council for approval.
The King Center was built in three phases, starting in the early 1940s. It was used by the United Service Organization in support of the troops during World War II and thereafter. The building became a library for Muskogee's black residents.
The city assumed operations of the King Center in 1974, providing a place to promote opportunities and "serve the youth of the Afro-American community." Then- Mayor Kathy Hewitt issued a proclamation in 1995, rededicating the building for that purpose following a renovation.
Reed said the after-school program has an enrollment of 78 and an average daily attendance of just more than 60. Its summer youth feeding program averages about 500 children a week, and the summer night basketball program attracts about 300 people every Friday and Saturday night.
"One of our wishes was that we stay here at this location," Reed said. "Even though we will lose the history of this building, we will still be in the vicinity. That is something we can be proud of."
Councilors will consider final approval of the purchase at their meeting at 7 p.m. today.

Pearl Harbor & the Explosions
Pearl Harbor & the Explosions
Pearl Harbor & the Explosions was one of the first American new wave groups. The band was formed in San Francisco in 1978 by vocalist Pearly Gates, guitarist Peter Bilt, bassist Hilary Stench, and drummer John Stench. The group became a Bay Area favorite and was an integral part of a fertile new wave scene that also spawned Romeo Void, Translator, and Wire Train. Gates was once a background dancer for the Tubes and after she quit, she joined Leila and the Snakes, eventually renamed Pearl Harbor & the Explosions. In 1979, the band released the single "Drivin'." Even without any promotion, the record sold more than 10,000 copies. The group was signed to Warner Bros. that year. However, the group's self-titled debut LP was not a commercial success and the group disbanded. Gates started calling herself Pearl Harbor and went solo. She released Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost Too, in 1981. In 1995, she collaborated with East Bay Ray (guitar) of the Dead Kennedys, recording Here Comes Trouble. Along with Stinky Le Pew (guitar), Lee Vilensky (bass), and Mike Hunter (drums), they headlined the 1998 Psychobilly Festival, resurrecting the Explosions' infectious new wave energy and thirst for fun. ~ Michael Sutton, Rovi

Enhancements to small-scale control system simplify installation
Improvements to Honeywell's HC900 standalone process control system promise less startup time and fewer operator errors.
Honeywell has announced new features for its 900 Control Station touch screen operator interface, part of the HC900 Control System, used in industrial facilities to control standalone processes and SCADA applications. The company says its new features allow engineers to configure the system more quickly and allows operators to monitor their processes more efficiently while reducing data entry error.
"Many plants today need smaller and contained control systems for standalone or SCADA applications where a distributed control system would be overkill for these applications," says Henri Tausch, VP and general manager for Honeywell Process Solutions' (HPS) Field Solutions group. "Additionally, more of our customers need to handle batch applications that don't require complex recipe or procedure management. The enhancements we've made to the HC900 Control System will make it easier for those plants to deploy the solution they need for these challenges in a more-efficient manner."
Honeywell recommends this hybrid control solution for processes such as thermal control in boilers, furnaces, kilns, and dryers. It is also ideal for small-unit processing in pharmaceutical, chemical, bio-fuel, and pilot-plant applications. Its newly enhanced features include thermal batch management and reporting, expanded remote access, improved alarm monitoring, and security for standalone and small process control applications.
Process alarming from the HC900 controller, for instance, is now integrated into the operator interface, which means plants save installation time by not having to set up separate display alarming. Additionally, the system features automated barcode data entry, which Honeywell says can help operators enter required batch identification data quickly with less chance for human error. Operators can also access data from the interface via cell phone to remotely monitor the system.
The HC900 Control System is available through Honeywell's network of distributors and system integrators, and represents another element of a larger program to reach into new market areas. "We are increasing our focus on non-traditional verticals," Tausch adds. "HPS has traditionally focused on refining, chemicals, petrochemicals, and so forth. There are a lot of other verticals where there are smaller projects and those are implemented through system integrators. We came out with a range of products that we call our SIMS (system integrator and modular system) program, including the Experion LS, HC900, and Master Logic. We have a program for system integrators where they can implement these systems in smaller verticals such as food and beverage, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and so on. Of course, in the Field Solutions division, we also have our traditional products: pressure, temperature, level, and flow, and we have a distributor channel for these. What system integrators like about Honeywell is that we offer them Experion LS which is a true DCS, which they don't have access to through our other programs."

Before when I was badly constipated, it was just awful bloat. Lactaid stops the diarrhea and reduces the bloat, but I still get very gassy.

Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls — North America's most spectacular waterfall straddles the U.S.-Canadian border. Technically a single cataract, Niagara Falls appears to be two separate falls, with Ontario claiming the more impressive 2,200-foot "Horseshoe Falls," and the U.S. encompassing the smaller 1,060-foot "American Falls" at the tip of New York state. A crop of casinos, hotels, and chain restaurants create an unabashedly touristy atmosphere around the Falls, but no amount of background noise can distract from the phenomenon of the water itself (600,000 gallons gush per second over the crest of Horseshoe Falls). Each year, 12 million+ visitors come to admire to this natural wonder.

Summary (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
Brown Girl, Brownstones, Marshall's first novel, is the story of Selina Boyce, the daughter of Barbadian immigrants, and her journey to womanhood. At ten, Selina resists her awkwardly changing body, uncomfortable yet fascinated by a dawning sexual awareness. Marshall writes candidly about women's bodies, menstruation, and sexuality at a time when writers, especially women, were not encouraged to be so frank.
This initiation novel brings Selina into much more than physical womanhood. She must also develop emotionally and mentally; she must learn humiliation, grief, understanding, and the courage to be herself. Many characters guide Selina through her approaching womanhood: the voluptuous boarder Suggie; Miss Thompson, an elderly southern hairdresser who serves as comforter and surrogate mother and whose foot bears an ulcerous "life-sore" as a direct result of racism; Selina's schoolmate Beryl; and, of course, her parents. A final guide is Clive, a sometime artist whose major lesson for her is to learn to leave him.
Selina's real and ongoing conflict is with her mother, a blank, formidable woman. Eventually, Selina learns to understand her mother better, but she never completely overcomes her anger at her mother's treatment of her father. Selina also recognizes that a part of her is determined and ruthless, too. She is her mother's daughter as well as her father's.
A second plot line follows the complex...

Summary (Masterplots II: African American Literature, Revised Edition)
Brown Girl, Brownstones examines the personal and social development of a young girl, Selina Boyce, born to first-generation Barbadian immigrants to New York. Her first impressions of the world include the heavy, oppressive brownstone dwellings of her neighborhood, a later symbol of all she wishes to escape. She grows up in an atmosphere of familial and social tension: World War II hovers vaguely over her childhood, but more immediate concerns are the battles within her own household.
Selina's father, Deighton Boyce, is an unskilled and uneducated factory worker. His only asset is his buoyant and free-spirited personality, which carries him through various disappointments. When the accounting course he takes through the mail does not land him a job with a white accounting agency, he turns his back on the business world, dismissing it as hopelessly racist. He picks up a trumpet and is determined, for a time, to become a great jazz musician. Through all of his dreams and illusions, Selina is by his side, believing in him and protecting him from the cold blast of his wife's derision. Silla Boyce wants only enough money to put a down payment on a house. She works at a factory to accomplish this end and deeply resents her husband's unwillingness to surrender his dreams and embrace hers.
When Deighton learns that he has inherited a piece of land in Barbados, he begins to spin fantastic dreams about moving his family back to their homeland to live like proper landowners. The land represents to Deighton everything his black skin color has denied him: social status, communal respect, and a life of ease. Silla, however, has no intention of giving up her dream of a home and place in America, and she entertains no romantic illusions about life back in their homeland. In fact, as she explains to Selina, she remembers her life there as filled with torturous labor and unbearable isolation. To expect things to be...

Summary (Masterplots II: American Fiction Series, Revised Edition)
Written as an attempt by Paule Marshall to reflect on her own life, Brown Girl, Brownstones is an autobiographically based novel about a young black woman growing up among the Barbadian immigrant community of Brooklyn in the 1940's. From the beginning, Brown Girl, Brownstones is a novel about the conflicting set of values represented by Deighton and Silla Boyce, with Selina, their daughter and the novel's main character, caught in the middle. On one side is Deighton Boyce, idle because he lacks the drive and discipline to embrace a culture and its materialistic values that he knows devalue him. Deighton studies to become an accountant, but never becomes one; he studies to learn to play the trumpet, but never performs. Opposing him is Silla Boyce, who embraces a hard-edged, penny-conscious immigrant ethic. Silla is determined to do what it takes to own land and get ahead materially. Though Selina identifies explicitly with her father throughout much of the novel, she slowly comes to realize that her deeper affinities are to her mother.
At the novel's start, Selina is ten, but she is described by the narrator as possessing a manner seemingly wise beyond her years, with eyes "too old . . . in their centers." When her father unexpectedly inherits a two-acre plot of land, he begins dreaming of moving back to Barbados. Silla, who has no intention of returning to her homeland and who resents her husband's dreaming as much as his idleness, plots to have the land sold.
The first two short sections of Brown Girl, Brownstones, "A Long Day and a Long Night" and "Pastorale," establish the close relationship between Selina and her father, the emerging similarities between Selina and her mother, and the frequently unstated attraction and respect between Silla and Deighton that underlies their fighting. The third section, "The War," covers the years of World War II, years when the conflict between Silla and Deighton erupts into a domestic war.
After Deighton is notified that he has inherited land, Silla plans to have the land sold behind his back. She...

Summary (Identities & Issues in Literature)
Brown Girl, Brownstones, Paule Marshall's first novel, set in the Barbadian community of Brooklyn, focuses on the coming-of-age of Selina Boyce, whose parents emigrated from Barbados. Selina's initiation into adulthood is complicated by family strife and the racial prejudice she finds in Brooklyn in the 1940's. Her mother, mirroring the Barbadian community around her, strives for the American Dream of owning her own home, while her father refuses to be caught up in the pursuit of that dream, longing to return to the idyllic life he associates with Barbados. Selina is caught in the family tensions between her father's free spirit and her mother's power. Although most often drawn toward her father, she recognizes the pull of her mother. Selina discovers that she cannot find her own way by following either parent.
The first glimpse the reader gets of Selina highlights contradictions and conflicts: Although only ten, her eyes suggest an uncanny age; she springs forward while at the same time pulling herself backward with one arm; she imagines herself wearing a gown and belonging to the genteel white family that previously lived in the brownstone now rented by the Boyces, but she sees her lanky and ragged reflection in a mirror.
Several characters in the novel mark Selina's development from an awkward ten-year-old into a graceful dancer and successful college student. She quickly outgrows her childhood friend Beryl, who opts for conformity with the community; Selina's friendship with Miss Thompson, an African American, provides some solace from family strife and widens her knowledge about American society and prejudice; Selina leaves Clive, her lover, recognizing in him an inertia that also took hold of her father before his death.
By the novel's end, Selina decides to leave Brooklyn and travel to Barbados alone. Although often at odds with her mother and the Barbadian community, Selina, before leaving, makes peace with both; she leaves the brownstone and her community not with bitterness, but with determination to find her own way.
Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
The brownstone in which the ten-year-old Selina Boyce resides with her family is a dusty memorial to the generations of white families now being replaced by brown West Indians. Selina dreams about the house's past and then turns her attention to a photograph of her own family before she was born. She tries to understand how her mother, Silla, changed from the shy and pretty young woman in the picture to the hard and aggressive mother she associates with darkness and winter. In contrast, Deighton, Selina's summery father, with his teasing smile and carefree attitudes, has not changed in the slightest from the man in the photograph. Just thinking about her father makes Selina feel warm and loved.
Deighton inherits a piece of land in Barbados, and Silla plots to get it away from him to buy the brownstone in which they currently live. She succeeds in selling the land but needs Deighton's signature to cash the check. Pretending defeat, he literally seduces her into trusting him and then spends the money on extravagant presents for each member of the family. However, his moment of triumph, able to walk into fancy stores and be treated with respect because of the cash in his hand, is short lived. The Bajan community mocks and rejects him, he ends up maimed by a machine at the factory where he works, and in his weakened state he is recruited to join a religious cult run by Father Peace.
Selina visits her father at his retreat but cannot help but acknowledge his utter emasculation. Silla, infuriated by Deighton's abandonment of his family, tips off the immigration authorities to his illegal status and has him deported. He apparently commits suicide by jumping off the boat taking him back to Barbados. In the meantime, Silla, by working several jobs and mastering the powerful machines that contributed to Deighton's demise, is able to buy the brownstone after all....

Hacking trial: Defence story so far
The trial of former News of the World journalists accused of a conspiracy to hack mobile phones is now well under way at the Old Bailey.
It is a long and complex trial and the jury of nine women and three men have been listening to many months of evidence.
The defendants deny all the charges and you can find answers to basic questions about the trial here.
This page is a summary of the defence case - latest coverage at the top. The prosecution case wrapped up in the first week of February.
Rebekah Brooks in the witness box
The defence cases in the hacking trial began on 20 February with Rebekah Brooks, the former News of the World and Sun editor.
Ex-Guantanamo detainee Moazzam Begg arrested by terror police
The latest arrests are part of a wider pattern and an increasing focus on Syria - there were 16 such arrests in January alone compared with 24 in the whole of last year.
We know that hundreds of people are going over to Syria.
Immigration debate over powers to deport foreign criminals
Home Secretary Theresa May has tabled an eleventh-hour amendment to her own Immigration Bill which is designed to strengthen powers to strip nationality from people suspected of involvement in terrorism.
It comes amid attempts by a cross-party group of backbenchers to make it easier to deport some foreign-born criminals. So what's the difference between the two proposals - and does it actually matter?
Lee Rigby killer Michael Adebolajo makes appeal bid
A criminal appeal takes between six weeks and three months to come to hearing - but there is no guarantee that Adebolajo will get one.
His team will have to file papers to the court setting out all the reasons why the conviction is unsafe which will have to relate to some part of the trial being unfair.
Whole-life terms 'not wrong in principle', court hears
This appeal really matters because of its legal and political implications. In the wake of last year's European court ruling, some trial judges are no longer clear whether they can still lock up an offender and throw away the key - so it's the Court of Appeal's role to set new guidance.
That guidance will take into account what Parliament has said about the issue, case law down the years, and consider whether Strasbourg has any role to play in the matter.
TPims anti-terror measures may be 'withering on the vine' - MPs
By the end of this month six TPim suspects will be free - meaning there is only one man still subject to the monitoring conditions. Given the secrecy around the system, you can never be sure that there isn't another suspect we don't know about.
Control orders - the more restrictive regime that came before TPims - had many opponents who said the house-arrest style conditions were unjust and oppressive.
Court of Appeal ignores Strasbourg ruling on police detention
The Court of Appeal has backed the police over "pre-emptive" arrests during the 2011 Royal Wedding - and refused to follow a European Court ruling on the issue.
Judges said the Metropolitan Police had the power to hold people on the day of the marriage
Crime stats: The truth is out there
Last week, the UK Statistics Authority, the watchdog that oversees the publication of official data, said it could no longer approve crime figures based on information recorded by the police in England and Wales.
The report said that there was accumulating evidence that the figures may not be reliable - and they needed to be thoroughly overhauled.
Police Federation: Pulling it out of the past
Every year, there are two places where you will find a rowdy audience willing to boo and heckle. The first is the pantomime. The second is the Police Federation annual conference - as soon as a Home Secretary walks on stage.
Notwithstanding the fact that Theresa May didn't get jeered this year (it was such a surprise, some newspapers thought the lack of boos to be newsworthy), the expectation of such a performance only serves to confirm to the Police Federation's critics that it is a dinosaur-like organisation stuck in the dark ages of industrial relations.

Arthur Conley
Arthur Conley
Arthur Conley sang and (with mentor Otis Redding) co-wrote the 1967 classic "Sweet Soul Music," arguably the finest record ever made about the genre it celebrates. Born January 4, 1946, in McIntosh, GA, and raised in Atlanta, Conley was just 12 years old when he joined the Evening Smiles, a gospel group that appeared regularly on local radio station WAOK. By 1963 he was leading his own R&B outfit, Arthur & the Corvets, which over the next two years issued three singles -- "Poor Girl," "I Believe," and "Flossie Mae" -- for the Atlanta label National Recording Company. Despite Conley's graceful yet powerful vocals (which owed an immense debt to his idol, Sam Cooke), the NRC singles earned little attention, and he dissolved the group to mount a solo career, releasing "I'm a Lonely Stranger" on the Ru-Jac label in late 1964. Label owner Rufus Mitchell then passed a copy of the single to soul shouter Redding, who was so impressed he invited Conley to re-record the song at Memphis' Stax Studios. With Jim Stewart assuming production duties, the recut "I'm a Stranger" hit retail in the fall of 1965, and was just the second single to appear on Redding's fledgling Jotis imprint. Conley's "Who's Foolin' Who" followed in early 1966, and proved the fourth and final Jotis effort.
