You are here: Home / Topics / Rural Economy & Population / Population & Migration / Shifting Geography of Population Change
Stay Connected
Opportunities for population growth and economic expansion vary widely from one nonmetro county to the next, and a comparison of maps for two time periods (2004-06 and 2010-12) shows that new regional patterns of growth and decline have emerged in recent years. The maps show rates of population growth for all counties, metro and nonmetro. Urbanized areas (shown in dark gray) are at the center of metro areas and nonmetro counties are those that are some distance removed, depending on the size of the metro area.
Geographic patterns of population growth that held sway for decades can be seen on the map for 2004-06:
Historic geographic shifts in population growth can be seen on the map showing population change since 2010.
Urban population size, metro proximity, attractive scenery, and recreation potential have historically contributed to nonmetro population growth. For the time being at least, their influence has weakened. Over the last two years, suburban and exurban population growth has contracted considerably—for the first time since World War II—affecting not only outlying metro counties but nonmetro counties adjacent to metro areas as well.
This period may simply be an interruption in suburbanization or it could turn out to be the end of a major demographic regime that has transformed small towns and rural areas throughout the country for decades.
Long-term population growth from steadily booming recreation, tourism, and retirement economies was interrupted as well. During the 1990s and early 2000s, rapid in-migration to nonmetro regions with mountains, lakes, moderate climates, and other natural amenities generated jobs in construction and the service sector, which attracted additional migrants.
Along with farming-dependent counties that were already growing slowly, manufacturing-dependent counties switched from population growth in 2004-06 to decline in 2010-12.

The Pre-FOMC Announcement Drift |
September 2011 Number 512 Revised August 2013 |
JEL classification: G10, G12, G15 |
Authors: David O. Lucca and Emanuel Moench We document large average excess returns on U.S. equities in anticipation of monetary policy decisions made at scheduled meetings of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) in the past few decades. These pre-FOMC returns have increased over time and account for sizable fractions of total annual realized stock returns. While other major international equity indices experienced similar pre-FOMC returns, we find no such effect in U.S. Treasury securities and money market futures. Other major U.S. macroeconomic new announcements also do not give rise to pre-announcement excess equity returns. Pre-FOMC returns are higher in periods when the slope of the Treasury yield curve is low, implied equity market volatility is high, and when past pre-FOMC returns have been high. We discuss challenges explaining these returns with standard asset pricing theory.

Silence reigned supreme in Eritrea, where the entire independent press was under a government ban and 11 journalists languished in jail at year's end. Clamorous, deadly power struggles raged in Zimbabwe over land and access to information, and in Burundi over ethnicity and control of state resources. South Africa, Senegal, and Benin remained relatively liberal from a press freedom perspective, while corruption and fear pervaded newsrooms in Mozambique and Togo.
Decree No. 2 made it a seditious offense, punishable with a 10-year jail term, to "impersonate, insult, ridicule, or put into contempt" the king, tribal chiefs, and state officials. The decree allowed the banning of publications without appeal, removed bail for a number of press offenses, and raised penalties for libel. It also upheld a ban on the political opposition and the suspension of the Swazi Constitution, both in place since 1973.
July 11, 2000
H.E. Barnabas Sibusiso Dlamini
Prime Minister of Swaziland
Mbabane, Swaziland
Your Excellency:
We, the undersigned organizations, are deeply concerned about the state of freedom of the press in the Kingdom of Swaziland. Over the past nine months, media workers in Swaziland have experienced serious attacks on their right to freely report on matters in the Kingdom, consequently undermining the right of Swazi citizens to receive and impart information as enshrined in Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Rapunzel Vegetable Bouillon -- 3.1 oz
Best Bouillon!!!!!
This is a very tasty and easy to use bouillon. In my opinion it is the best bouillon on the market as it has NO MSG or other artificial ingredients and tastes great. It dissolves easily into very warm or hot water.
August 17, 2013
Must have pantry item
Bullion cubes are one of those items everyone should keep on hand. But not if they are loaded with bad stuff. Rapunzel is an all natural organic product with great flavor. And Vitacost has this at half the price of Whole Foods and other health food stores.
July 15, 2013
Great Flavoring
You can throw this into veggie dishes, stews, soups~ tons of options with added flavor and benefits.
July 3, 2013
The best vegetable bouillon out there!
Rapunzel makes the best vegetable bouillon cube out there, and this is their best version! I use TONS of vegetable bouillon for work and have tried almost all of them. No MSG (do you know how hard it is to find bouillon without MSG???), organic ingredients, and great taste. The only down side of these is the high sodium... it's the only reason I give this product 4 stars instead of 5. The sodium free version is lacking in my opinion, but this really has a bit too much. Need a healthy 'in-between'.
May 15, 2013
Just delicious!
This is the first vegetable bouillon that doesn't taste strongly of carrots. The flavor is wonderful and is a staple in my kitchen.

We have an exciting announcement! The research and development department here at the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy has been hard at work for the past several years developing a device so stunning that it will set the political world on its ear.
I had the opportunity to attend the informational meeting conducted by the William S. Hart Union High School District for the Castaic community at Castaic Middle School regarding the proposed Castaic high school on Tuesday.
Artists' Association meeting
Donald Rimac watched a trend: As the economy got worse over the last few years, more men would loiter outside the Newhall apartment building he owns on 15th Street. They're looking for work.
Low temperatures and partly cloudy skies are expected the rest of this week following a milder-than-expected weekend storm that partly contributed to the deaths of two men in separate traffic crashes.
In his column advocating the extension of the 2009 temporary tax increase ("Regardless of party, we're in the same boat," Feb. 15), John Zaring parroted Gov. Jerry Brown's threat to cut education and programs that assist the poor if the record-breaking tax increase isn't extended.
My sisters and I have lived in Newhall since 1962. Our parents lived here until they died, Dad at 85, and Mom at 94 years old. Over the years, we had taken them to multiple specialty doctors in this community.

Michael Guglielmino fondly remembers summers spent working at the Newhall Hardware store in downtown Newhall.
We've all heard the saying "the ends justify the means." Taken at face value, this core truth of pragmatism suggests that if the end result is good, then any and all of the things you had to do to get that result are deemed good as well.

The annual Metrolink Holiday Toy Express has been stopped in its tracks because of budget cuts.
I read that Supervisor Antonovich is again raising concerns about welfare fraud in L.A. County. This is typical of Republicans to go after the poor and by implication "them" - brown- and black-skinned people.
This summer, the Santa Clarita Valley Chamber of Commerce will host the third annual Patriot Luncheon on July 11 at the Hyatt Regency Valencia.
Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich will address the Santa Clarita Valley business and community leaders on May 1 at the fifth annual State of the County Luncheon.
We all know that perception often influences our decisions, yet we catch ourselves and become reminded that what we perceive isn't always what's really going on. With the constant barrage of information available in today's 24/7 world, it's important to not get caught up in the day-to-day market volatility and news headlines. That daily hype doesn't always dovetail with what Wells Fargo Advisors top strategists are observing in the financial marketplace.

San Miguel County to Open DMV Office in Norwood
SAN MIGUEL COUNTY – San Miguel County residents will no longer have to travel to access the services of the Department of Motor Vehicles, as of next year. The San Miguel County Clerk and Recorder has obtained approval for a branch Motor Vehicle Office in the Lone Cone Building, at 1120 Summit St., in Norwood. Final details and logistics are being worked out for the branch office, which is expected to open in July of 2011.
"We are very pleased to have received final approval from the Colorado Department of Revenue to open this full-service branch Motor Vehicle office, to be staffed by Vicki Gallob of Norwood," said San Miguel County Clerk and Recorder Peggy Nerlin.
"You will be able to renew your license plates, bring in title work and request a license, and obtain plates for your vehicle – all right here in town," Nerlin said. "We are very excited to offer these services to residents of Norwood and the West End of San Miguel County."
Those who have questions are encouraged to call the Motor Vehicle Department at the San Miguel County Clerk and Recorder's Office, at 970/728-3954.
George Cain Honored With Tenth Annual Fundraiser Bike Ride
TELLURIDE - George Cain always wanted to be a firefighter.
Cain died while living that dream, as one of the many members of the NYFD Engine Company #7 who lost their lives during the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Although he spent most of his time in New York City, Cain would save up his vacation pay to come spend to Telluride every winter, becoming friends with longtime locals, including Telluride firefighters.
Now in its tenth year, The George Cain Memorial Bike Ride is a supported two-day ride that travels from Telluride to Moab, with riders camping out at the halfway point near Bedrock; it takes the third weekend in May. "It's a good opportunity to honor George," says organizer Dave Crockett.
For more information about the ride, call 970/728-0232 or 970/708-2432.
Angel Memorial Tree
SAN MIGUEL COUNTY - Everyone is invited to add a symbolic ornament in memory of a loved one to the decorated memorial Angel Tree at the intersection of Colorado State Highway 145 and Highway 62, below Placerville. The Angel Tree was inspired by the beautiful spirits and memories of Cody Simonian and Jessica Craft, who died tragically and prematurely; over the years, Hoot Brown, Hillary Fitzgerald, Noreen Morton, Remy Booth, Billy Poole, Blade, Fred Overman, Kevin Green, Chad Mullins and many more have been commemorated by Angel Tree, as well. All ornaments are saved; the tree is decorated in December, every year.

Today's Zaman Azerbaijani Republic of Nakhchivan
President Gül has said he has personally observed the success of Turkish schools established around the world, underlining that those schools have been helping to build fraternal ties between Turkey and the countries in which they have been established. Gül's remarks came on Saturday during a visit to the Nakhchivan Private Turkish High School on the sidelines of a summit of the Turkic-speaking countries held in the autonomous Azerbaijani republic of NakhchivanExpressing excitement over visiting the Turkish high school, Gül said: "Now I have learned from presentations made here that this is the first Turkish school opened in this region. I know from the visits that I've paid of how these Turkish schools have spread from Central Asia to the Balkans and to Africa. I personally visit these schools and see how successful they are." Turkish schools have been established in more than 80 countries.
"I know how they teach the Turkish language, how they spread Turkish culture and how they make a contribution to the building of fraternal ties between Turkey and the countries in which they provide education.
In this regard, I highly appreciate [these schools]," Gül said, while voicing his satisfaction over the fact that the schools are being supported by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev in the same way they were supported by the late President Haydar Aliyev

Wal Mart has it for $15.86 or something like that. VERY close to the other stores and their $15.99 price, so it's not much of a difference. Except for the Wal Mart crowds... and huge parking lot... and not-so-helpful/hard-to-find staff... and setting off the security device on the way out the door.... (yeah, my Wal Mart experience was nothing like their cutesy little commercials lead you to believe..... and since all the other stores are across town, it was still a shorter trip....)

I have an iPhone 3GS that isn't damaged externally. It didn't fall down, no water damage, nothing..
When I plug in the USB cable for a PC connection it starts charging, but isn't always recognized by Windows (or Linux or OS X). On some PCs it is _never_ recognized (e.g. a PC with Intel P55 USB, 2009 iMAC, 2010 MBP, ..), on other PCs it is _usually_ recognized. If it gets recognized, the sync works just as it should. No transfer problems or connection aborts or something like that.
The problem is now, that I can't even restore the firmware. When I try, the iPhone reboots and when it shows that upgrade progress bar on the screen it isn't available via USB any longer. After some timeout it just reboots into recovery mode without firmware upgrade and iTunes fails with 1602 or 1611. Same happens when I try restore from recovery or DFU. On my AMD notebook it shows "Unknown device" messages when in the progress bar mode. On linux it says something like device enum failed in this state.
I think this is a hardware related issue. Has anyone experienced this strange issue before?

Agriculture in India, a water intensive sector
PepsiCo, a consumer products company, operates several beverage manufacturing plants in India. Engaged in a process of securing a reliable water supply for its operations, PepsiCo committed in 2003 to conserve more water than it uses.
In India, all industry accounts for about 6% of total water use, whereas agriculture uses over 85% of the country's water. The country is also among the largest rice growers in the world, growing about 144 million tons of paddy over roughly 44 million hectares. Indian rice has traditionally been cultivated via a conventional, waterintensive method that begins by sowing seeds in a small nursery where they germinate into saplings. The saplings are then transplanted manually to a field and grown in 10-12.5 cm of water at their base for the first 6-8 weeks.
PepsiCo has therefore identified rice growing as a main opportunity for water use reduction in the country, and has consequently implemented a program based on direct seeding methodologies of rice.
Water savings through direct seeding of rice
PepsiCo's R&D team has been experimenting with direct seeding of rice (DSR) for four years. With the DSR method, seeds are sown directly in the field and do not require water at the crop base. This saves 30% (2.25 million liters/ ha) of the water historically needed in rice seeding.
PepsiCo has also introduced a special tractor with a direct seeding machine to automate the process, and given Indian farmers free access to the tractors and to field technicians who guide them through the entire cultivation process. In addition to saving water, the new technology is reducing costs for farmers by 3500 rupees per hectare as compared to their traditional methods.
In 2009 DSR was perfected, and extended to 2630 hectares throughout India, resulting in a saving of 5.5 billion liters of water. This significant reduction of water use has allowed PepsiCo India to achieve positive water balance – giving back more water than its business consumed. More importantly, it has reduced water usage in a country where water is an increasingly precious commodity.
In late 2009, PepsiCo received confirmation from a nodal body of the Indian Government that, in addition to the significant water savings that direct seeding affords, it also reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (from decreased methanogenic activity) by over 70%, which will create new business opportunities when this new method of GHG reduction is certified in the future.
This program has helped PepsiCo India to become a positive water balance company, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, therefore enhancing its sustainable image, and securing its license to operate in the country.

What up people! I got another really fucking long article for y'all. This is kind of a history on Brocas Helm, a band that I consider to be among the greatest ever. After the Impaled article, I had no idea what I wanted to write about next. Then the Brocas Helm show got announced and I realized that the band is like a total fricken mystery, and that it could be fun to hunt these dudes down.
I first hit up Justin Weis, the mastering engineer for Black Death and Defender of the Crown, for the band's contact info. He directed me to our pal Mike Scalzi from Slough Feg. Unfortunately, Mike couldn't find a number for his friend in the band, guitarist/vocalist Bob Wright. So I remembered this article that Mike wrote for Invisible Oranges that said that Bob is an electrician, so I did some googling and found a random number online. I call it on a Saturday morning, and within one ring I hear on the other line this monolithic and commanding voice- "This is Bob Wright." I'm basically freaking the fuck out, and I introduce myself/explain the article/babble incessantly and somehow we schedule an interview and I get his email address. We eventually do chat on the phone and what follows is the most amazing interview I've ever done. Bob tells me so many cool Brocas Helm facts, stories and details that I just totally nerd out. He also starts grilling me, asking me what I want do with my life- best part of the interview: Bob: So what do you want to be, a writer or an engineer? Me: An engineer, but I like writing for fun. Bob: Well, why didn't you go to college? Me: I do go to college, I go to UCLA. Bob: UCLA huh...? (Long pause) I bet the girls there are really hot, eh?! I totally lose it and crack up like no tomorrow- that's something that happened so many times throughout the 70 minute long interview. Next was the rest of the guys. A few days later I found former guitarist John Grey on Facebook, added him and sent a message explaining myself and the article, and we did a phone interview right on the spot. John turned out to be a massive help for the article, he gave me lots of really cool info, access to old photos, and even got me in touch with the other former guitarist, Tom "T-Bone" Behney. John got really into the article, and was the only one to look over his transcript when I sent it and offer corrections. Super nice guy, and just a really cool dude in general. Next was former guitarist T-Bone. I called him and left a voicemail on a random weeknight one day. Dude calls me on a Saturday morning while I'm asleep, I wake up, find my entire right arm asleep and I flop around like a beached whale to my phone to talk to him. My roommate got a kick out of watching me derp around haha. T-Bone was another source of good info, and turns out he really went out of his way to encourage his kids to get into music when he settled down. He even told me a really sweet story of how he played Limelight by Rush with his son on drums for a middle school talent show. Really pleasant guy to talk to. Next was the show itself. The universe decided to say "FUCK YOU ONIONER" and gave me the shittiest possible week of school leading up the night I flew home for the show. Ended up pulling two all nighters in like 4 days or something like that, just because of homework overload. It was all worth it though, just so I could attend the show. I already recounted how that day ended up being one of the best and most awesome days in my entire life in my gig report, so you can read it there. In short though, Brocas Helm gave an unforgettable live show, and meeting Bob Wright was an experience I will always cherish. I have never met a man that loves life, the people who are good to him and the good things that come with it all more than Bob Wright- an amazing human being by any standard. I interviewed drummer Jack and bassist Jim at the show, both were really chill and laidback to talk to. At the show, Jim gave me a CD with dozens of really cool photos of the band, some of which were over thirty years old. Most of the photos used in the article were Jim's. I did manage to hit up Brian Lew, the original Bay Area thrash historian and he found one old photo that I could use. My friend, ace photographer Ray Ahner, also took some choice shots at the show itself that I ended up using. Once I transcribed all the interviews, I got cracking on the article itself. It ended up being less "journalistic" and more casual, just because there was less investigation to be done so to speak. These guys generally haven't had as much drama as Impaled had, so I injected more of my own opinions and such to make the article more interesting. After writing it was editing and re-writing like mad, then doing the layout. Anyway, hope you guys enjoy it! I have no clue what I'll write next, but I'm sure it'll be fun. http://metalassault.com/articles/201...y-brocas-helm/

Hey dudes, got another article fer ya! This one's actually a reasonable length haha. It's on a hardcore punk band from Santa Cruz called Bl'ast! No real cool story here, this was just a standard press request for an interview and meeting the dudes at the show. Cliff and Mike were both real cool and down to Earth, and Bl'ast! killed later that night. Anyway, enjoy!
http://metalassault.com/articles/201...from-the-past/ I've got what I think will be a pretty cool article coming up, and it'll be really engineering-focused. Can't wait to get the ball rolling on that.

Moar article! This is a piece on Slough Feg and their new album Digitial Resistance. It's also heavily on Slough Feg's engineer, Justin Weis. As some of you may or may not know, I was lucky enough to assist with some of the sessions for the album. Well, I found out that my name won't be on the record (deservedly so, Justin did 99.9% of the hard work and this is one his best recordings and mixes ever) but I figured on the plus side that it would mean I could at least write an article without too much fuss or whatever. So I did.
I proposed the idea to Mike Scalzi months ago and he was stoked, so I reminded him and we got it rolling right away. I spent two hours on the phone with Scalzi just info gathering and shooting the shit. Scalzi is probably one of the most intelligent and genuinely cool people I know. He's the kind of guy that will take time out of his day to do something mentally stimulating like spend time with a friend even if it may inconvenience him. I really really wish more people my age or hell, more people in general were like Mike Scalzi. I interviewed drummer Harry Cantwell next. He's just an incredibly cool and humble dude and a constant inspiration as a drummer to me, so calling him a friend is something I'm continually mindblown by. Our interview was via email, but it still worked super well. Last was Justin Weis. He's a busy guy so it took a while to find a time to talk, but we eventually did and it was killer. He's been like a mentor to me in so many ways, which is again kind of a mindfuck since I worshipped the guy's work just two years back before I even met him. Hell, I still kinda do. Life's weirdly awesome like that right now. Anyway, here it is. I also threw in a fuckton of electrical engineering analogies and jokes and crap, I hope it ain't too enginerdy. http://metalassault.com/articles/201...ital-resistor/

Not necessarily. Here in WV we have quite a few REAL Democrats; i.e. the good Americans who just differ slightly on methods but not the goals.That is as opposed to the communists that run the Democrat party nationally.
U go WV!
I doubt it will ever pass the WV senate. A dem is a dem; regardless of where they´re from.
The N.C. House introduced a similar bill February 2, 2013. With a majority Republican House and Senate, it will very likely pass. I´ve been writing letters all morning to my Representatives and State Senator urging them to please pass the bill and make haste.

Gregory Christy, former Md. teacher pleads guilty to child porn charges
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - A former physical education teacher in Anne Arundel County has pleaded guilty to child pornography charges, but will not serve any jail time.
Gregory Christy, who most recently taught at Rippling Woods Elementary School in Glen Burnie, pleaded guilty on Monday. The Baltimore Sun reports that under the plea agreement the 39-year-old must forfeit his teaching license and register as a sex offender for 15 years.
Prosecutors say several hundred thousand pornographic images were found on Christy's personal computers and more than 700 of the photos and videos children. Police say no local minors were depicted.
Christy apologized for his actions in a court hearing on Monday.

Vernon Jarrett, 1918-2004
Vernon Jarrett, journalist and activist, was born June 19, 1918 in Saulsbury, Tenn., and raised in Paris, Tenn. He was the second child of William Robert Jarrett and Annie Sybil Jarrett—both of whom were educators and children of ex-slaves. Collectively, William and Annie Jarrett spent 95 years teaching in small-town classrooms. From their parents, Jarrett and older brother Thomas Dunbar Jarrett (who served as the seventh president of Atlanta University from 1968 to 1977 and was a visiting professor of literature at Oxford University) developed a deep appreciation for education.
Jarrett earned a bachelor of arts degree in history from Knoxville College in 1941. Upon graduating, he joined and served in the United States Navy until his discharge in 1946. In subsequent years, Jarrett did postgraduate work in journalism at Northwestern University and the University of Missouri-Kansas City. In the 1950s, he studied urban sociology at the University of Chicago.
In 1946 Jarrett came to Chicago to work at the Chicago Defender. Jarrett recalled that, "I came to Chicago specifically to apply for a job at the Chicago Defender, which I did in March of 1946. I think it's important to understand that when I came to Chicago, specifically to work on a black newspaper, and even more specifically to be a writer with the Chicago Defender, I just didn't come as people might do today to enter a field of journalism. I came here to help change the world." Some of Jarrett's early assignments included covering the Airport Homes Riot in December 1946 and the story of a white man from Milwaukee passing as black in Chicago in 1947. He covered both of these stories with photographer Wayne F. Miller. Jarrett remained at the Chicago Defender until 1948.
He then went to work at the Associated Negro Press (ANP). In the early 1950s, Jarrett left ANP to start the Chicago Globe, a radical black newspaper, with Metz "Doc" Lochard. The Chicago Globe found limited success and closed after only a few years. Upon the paper's closing, Jarrett returned to ANP, where he worked through the late 1960s. In 1970, Jarrett became the first African American syndicated columnist at the Chicago Tribune. In 1972 he received the first of seven Pulitzer Prize nominations for his writing. He remained at the Tribune for 13 years. In 1983 he began writing for the Chicago Sun-Times, where he wrote nearly 4,000 commentaries and served on the paper's editorial board. Jarrett retired from the Sun-Times in 1994. In his "retirement," Jarrett launched a radio commentary, Jarrett Journal, on WVON-AM and began writing columns for the New York Times. In 2000, he returned to his roots, writing regular columns for the Chicago Defender. He continued writing for the Defender until the last month of his life.
During his career, Jarrett also achieved much success in radio and television. From 1948 to 1951, Jarrett collaborated with actor and musician Oscar Brown, Jr. to produce Negro Newsfront, the nation's first black daily radio newscast. This radio program was broadcast on WJJD-AM. In the 1960s and 1970s, he hosted another radio show, the Jarrett Report, on WJPC-AM. In 1968, Jarrett began his 30-year career in television, producing and hosting African American public affairs programming. His first show was Black on Black, later renamed For Blacks Only, for WLS-TV (an ABC affiliate). He produced and hosted this program with Warner Saunders and Holmes "Daddy-O" Daylie. Jarrett later produced and hosted Face to Face and Sunday in Chicago, also on WLS-TV.
In addition to his achievements in journalism, Jarrett devoted his energies to many organizations, especially those concerned with African American civil rights, education and history. In 1951, Vivian G. Harsh appointed Jarrett to serve on the Book Review and Lecture Forum committee for the George Cleveland Hall Branch of the Chicago Public Library. He served on the Citizens Schools Committee, an organization that pushed for integration and quality in the Chicago Public Schools. In 1975, he was one of the founders of the National Association of Black Journalists and, two years later, became its second national president. According to Jarrett, "The idea of these organizations was not for us to segregate ourselves from mainstream journalism…but to give us a better community foundation from which we could become involved in the mainstream more effectively."
He was a senior fellow for the University of Illinois at Chicago's Great Cities Institute, served on the board of directors for the DuSable Museum of African American History and Knoxville College's Board of Trustees. Jarrett was a leader in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. Jarrett also was a member of the advisory board of Fisk University's Race Relations Institute and served on the editorial board of the NAACP's Crisis magazine.
In 1977, Jarrett partnered with the NAACP to found the Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological and Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO). ACT-SO is a youth program "designed to recruit, stimulate, improve and encourage high academic and cultural achievement among African American high school students." In 1994, he started the Vernon Jarrett Oratorical Society for Kids. Four years later, hoping to encourage respect for reading, he created a joint self-education program for children and their parents called "The Freedom Readers," which took its name from the civil rights movement's "Freedom Riders." He also was the curator of oral history for the Rosa Parks Pathways to Freedom Program for Youths.
Over the course of his career, Jarrett received more than 100 awards and special recognitions. These awards include the American Civil Liberties Union James P. McGuire Award in 1988, the NABJ Lifetime Achievement Award in 1990, the National Association of Black School Educators President's Award in 1993, the NABJ President's Award in 1997 and the Silver Circle Award from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Chicago/Midwest Chapter in 2001. Jarrett also was the first recipient of the NAACP's James Weldon Johnson Achievement Award. He was recognized as one of the nation's top five communicators in a national poll of black leaders conducted by Ebony magazineand was inducted into the National Literary Hall of Fame at Chicago State University's Gwendolyn Brooks Center. Posthumously, he was honored with the Legacy Award from NABJ in August 2004.
Jarrett married Fernetta Hobbs, a teacher, in 1949. He and his wife were dedicated members of St. Edmund's Episcopal Church in Chicago. They had two sons, William Robert Jarrett and Thomas S. Jarrett. Following in his father's footsteps, Thomas is a photojournalist for ABC-TV Chicago. William became a physician and an advocate for medical care for the poor; he preceded his father in death in 1993.
Vernon Jarrett died of esophageal cancer on May 23, 2004.

The Vernon Jarrett Videotape Collection contains 150 DVD recordings (migrated from original videotapes) of the television programs Face to Face and Sunday in Chicago, from 1991 to 1998. This collection has been arranged chronologically. The recordings in the Vernon Jarrett Collection represent only a small portion of the nearly 2,000 broadcasts hosted and produced by Jarrett from 1968 to 1999. Face to Face and Sunday in Chicago (as well as Black on Black, which was later renamed For Blacks Only, for which no known recordings exist) were African American service programs broadcast on Sunday mornings on WLS-TV. Jarrett interviewed local and nationally renowned guests about topics related to the history and experience of African Americans. Topics included discrimination, politics, law, health and medicine, the arts, education, and upcoming celebrations and events. Some of his guests were Timuel Black, Charles Branham, Carol Moseley Braun, Margaret Burroughs, Cardiss Collins, Leon Finney, Danny Glover, Hermann Hartmann, Aldon Morris, Steve Neal, Hedy Ratner, Chinta Strausberg, Jackie Taylor, Paul Vallas and Addie Wyatt. Jarrett frequently invited Chicago students to co-host the shows with him.

Security testing with hping
At the Hop
Don't let intruders crash your dance. We'll show you how to test your firewalls and intrusion detection systems with hping.
When it comes to penetration testing and security audits, hping is one of your best friends. Currently in its third iteration, hping has become a preferred way to generate IP packets, usually for the purpose of testing firewall and intrusion detection systems.
Because you can use hping to manipulate all of the fields, flags, and protocol types of the TCP/IP protocol suite, some users call it a packet-crafting application.
By manipulating packets, you can scan systems stealthily, generate traffic floods, and generally create packets to your heart's content. Over the years, hping has become the de facto packet generator.
Generating custom packets is nothing new. Previous tools with whiz-bang and hackerish names, such as targa, synful, papa smurf, and netdude, could help with the task of generating designer packets, but many of these older applications had problems and limitations. For example, some tools could only scan Class C IPv4 networks.
Hping3 is the latest version of hping, and hping2 is the most significant predecessor application. Several applications depend upon hping2, which has been around quite a bit longer than hping3.
I install both versions, and I recommend that you do the same. I use hping3 as a stand-alone application, but I still have hping2 in case I need it for third-party applications, such as scapy (another packet manipulation tool) and idswakeup (an application for auditing intrusion detection systems). Hping3 comes with a new TCL scripting engine and is, therefore, quite bit more powerful than a simple command-line tool.
The original hping and hping2 applications operate as one-time commands – they don't launch an interactive shell. If you use the command without any arguments, hping3 places you into a session, much like the old nslookup command.
Hping3 lets you create fairly sophisticated scripts that will help you simulate traffic for your firewalls and intrusion detection systems. A less obvious advantage of hping3 is that Salvatore Sanfilippo, the creator of all things hping, rewrote much of the underlying code.
What Does hping Do?
Hping provides a single, universal solution that helps prevent many problems of the previous generation. Hping is designed to:
- scan hosts,
- assist with penetration testing,
- test intrusion detection systems,
- and send files between hosts.
In this article, I will explain how to start generating test packets with hping.
Installing hping
Hping3 is available from the project website as a source tarball [1]. If you're using an Ubuntu or Debian system, you can use either Synaptic Package Manager or apt-get for the installation. To install hping, enter the following command:
sudo apt-get install hping3.
You don't need to enable any additional repositories. Red Hat or CentOS packages are also available online [2].
Scanning Hosts
After installing hping, you are ready to get started. Suppose you want to send two TCP packets to a system named james, and you want those packets to hit port 80 on james. To do this, you would issue the command shown (with the accompanying output) in Listing 1.
Listing 1
A Simple Scan
01 pink@floyd:~/Desktop$ sudo hping3 -S james -c 2 -p 80 02 HPING james (eth0 192.168.15.134): S set, 40 headers + 0 data bytes 03 len=46 ip=192.168.15.134 ttl=64 DF id=0 sport=80 flags=SA seq=0 win=5840 rtt=0.3 ms 04 len=46 ip=192.168.15.134 ttl=64 DF id=0 sport=80 flags=SA seq=1 win=5840 rtt=0.3 ms 05 06 --- james hping statistic --- 07 2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0% packet loss 08 round-trip min/avg/max = 0.3/0.3/0.3 ms 09 pink@floyd:~/Desktop$
In Listing 1, notice that the flags= field is set to SA, which is hping's way of telling you that port 80 is open on james. If the ports were closed, you'd see RA in the flags= field.
The -S option sends a SYN packet, which often is used to create scans that are hard for intrusion detection systems to detect and flag as threatening.
After a system replies to a SYN packet, you know that a port is listening; the intrusion detection system will treat the SYN packet as standard traffic rather than as a threat.
Figure 1 shows how to specify a more sophisticated scan that provides a nice little ASCII-based report.
