What is Plagiarism?
According to The New Oxford American English Dictionary 1, the word "Plagiarism" originates from the Latin word for kidnapper and refers to the "practice of taking else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own." Obviously, cutting and pasting from internet documents, or buying a paper from an online "paper mill" are examples of plagiarism. However, so is improperly citing ones sources. We've put together this collection of resources to help you avoid plagiarism.

Gas prices may be trending downwards, but plenty of East Texans say they're still paying more than their neighbors in other cities. Viewers have reported gas prices as much as 40 cents higher than they are in East Texas towns just miles down the road from them."In Tyler, at the Chapel Hill Valero, gas was $3.17 a gallon. At Sam's club, it was $3 a gallon and at a Valero down on the loop, it was $3.07 a gallon," explains Harold Doty, the University of Texas at Tyler Assistant Vice President of Strategic Initiatives.Doty says the reason behind all the different prices has to do with zone pricing. That's when an oil company boosts their own profits by charging gasoline retailers different prices for gasoline based on different factors. Some of those include the gas station's location, the traffic volume they see each day, what amenities the store has to offer-- such as new restrooms or restaurants-- and the strength of nearby competitors.
that's just plain crazy because you're not buying the restaurant or the
restroom, you're buying the gas, says Cynthia Garcia, a gas station customer.
"You can
have the cleanest restaurant and the best food and everything but they'll leave
your restaurant and go right across the street to buy cheaper gas," says Kenneth Baulkmon, who was buying gas Tuesday night.
"They're going to use any factor they can that will allow them to raise the price of the product at that location," says Doty.Doty says most gas stations don't make their profits off the gas itself but the snacks and sodas they sell inside. "At some other gas stations, they'll almost sell gas at cost trying to lure people into the store to buy higher priced items," he explains.
just another way that us poor middle class Americans are gouged on a daily
basis," Garcia says.However, no matter the price, you're still buying the same pack of gum and the same unleaded gasoline.
if gas goes up to $5, you're not going to see people coming around
here on horses they're still going to buy gas," Baulkmon says.The pricing differences have been challenged in the past, but gas companies have been supported by the federal trade commission. They say the impact that fluctuating gas prices has on consumers isn't clear enough to declare zone pricing as illegal.

According to the Daily Post a couple of days ago, a proposed widening of the bridge that connects PA to EPA at the end of Newell is part of the flood control plan. However, residents of the Crescent Park neighborhood there say it will only double the traffic through their neighborhood.
How does widening this bridge help with flood control? The bridge is 100 years old and probably due for replacement anyway, but does widening it help?

Like many of you, this weekend I will be going to a party as someone I'm not. Halloween, after all, is the time of year we can don an alter ego, look foolish and be excused.
Party aficionado Cheryl Najafi, author of the best-seller "You're So Invited," is all for it.
"Themes – including costume parties – are a great device to get people to loosen up at a party," said Najafi.
She's right. Although the thought of going to a costume party used to make my forehead sprout hives, the parties where hosts have asked me to take part in a theme were always better.
That's partly because, as Najafi said, "Giving guests something to do beforehand (like plan a costume), gets the party started long before the evening begins."
So true. I have been thinking about my costume and this party for weeks.
But it's also because life gets better when we don't take ourselves too seriously.
Relax. Change it up. Break some rules. Those are Najafi's mantras.
"So many hosts are afraid to have a theme party because they think they will fail," she said, "but they're the most fun because they are instant ice breakers. They get guests to let their hair down and get the party started."
Halloween kicks off a party season that runs through New Year's. Many of us will entertain more in these two months than we do during the other 10 months of the year combined. To make this season's festivities fun and unforgettable, Najafi offers these tips:
Do something unexpected: Najafi recently held a formal dinner party for her husband's business associates, a serious crowd she wanted to lighten up. A theme party wasn't quite right. So on her formal dining table, she served the equivalent of a gourmet kids' meal: mac-and-cheese bites, pizza and ice cream sundaes. "Once people caught on, they loved it. It loosened everyone up," she said.
Play with names: Put whimsical name cards at guests' places. She once gave each guest a potato name: Tricia Tater Tot, Harry Hashbrown, Larry Lyonnais. If guests are filling out name tags, have them put their name and what breed of dog they would be.
Raise the buffet bar: Buffets are a great way to keep dinner parties from feeling too stiff, because guests are free to get up, she says. Make the buffet itself more enticing by setting food at varied heights, and placing playful theme-related cards beside each dish on the buffet also. For instance, on Halloween, serve "Cauldron Chili" and "Scarecrow Cornbread."
Ditch the Tupperware: If guests are bringing dishes for the buffet, have a platter or dish ready to receive their contribution. If the food arrives show ready (or the guest feels it is) leave it in the container it came in. Otherwise, transfer the food to a pretty plate, wash the guest's container and have it ready to take home with any leftovers. "You don't want your buffet to look like a church supper."
Add some whimsy: If you're having family over this Thanksgiving, make copies of old family photos – find ones the family members are in – and tuck them in the napkin rings. "It makes everyone feel connected and gives a jumping-off point to relive memories.
Relax: "Too many people feel they have to refinish the front porch and cook for three days in order to entertain," Najafi says. "But today's entertaining is anything but formal. You can burn the chicken, spill wine on your dress, the set the tablecloth on fire, and it's all OK."

Bolton Wanderers are in desperate need of reinforcements after a rough half-season has seen them look worryingly close to relegation. They've already replaced Chelsea-bound Gary Cahill with MLS defender Tim Ream, and were reportedly on the verge of acquiring the Philadelphia Union's Sebastian Le Toux only to turn him down following a trial. That doesn't mean they're not looking for attacking help, however - rumours are swirling that their sights are now set on Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha.
Zaha is one of England's more exciting young attacking talents, and he's been linked with a move away from the Championship for some time now. It's not entirely clear that Bolton would be a great fit for him, however - Zaha's game is still inconsistent and they're not going to be able to give the 19-year-old the time he needs to develop if results keep going badly. Still, this sounds like the first salvo of general Zaha-to-the-Premier-League rumours, so it's something to keep an eye on.

The exhibits in this show are not, as one might have expected, limited to the 19th century. Bringing together carefully conserved exhibits rarely seen in public, the exhibition is intended as a continuous "behind the scenes" history of clothing and fashion as seen through this unexpected range of mechanisms. Throughout the history of fashion, forms evolved and techniques were refined, but the aims of mechanical garments remained more or less unaltered: to flatten the stomach, draw in the waist to the extent of making it hollow, to provide support for the chest, uplift the breasts or flatten them on occasion, and round out the hips. In other words, comfort was sacrificed to appearance until, around 1900, Nicole Groult, Paul Poiret and Madeleine Vionnet created a fashion for the natural line. The exhibition continues with the brassière and the girdle, including versions for men.The story of corsets, crinoline and bustles is not, however, over, as designers like Christian Lacroix, Jean Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood and Comme des Garçons continue to come up with glossy or playful versions that are less constraining than their predecessors. The 20th and 21st centuries have made underwear into experimental over-garments.

The Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission resolves disputes between employees and employers regarding workers' compensation cases. A case is first tried by an arbitrator, whose decision may be reviewed by a panel of three commissioners. Cases may then be appealed to the circuit court, Appellate Court, and Illinois Supreme Court. Like most court systems, the vast majority of disputes are resolved by settlement.
Our staff will explain Commission procedures and case status information, but cannot answer specific legal questions regarding a case.

As 430,000 CL&P customers remained in the dark late Tuesday afternoon, a utility spokesman said the extent of the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy meant that the utility couldn't yet offer a restoration timeline.
"We've been at this for less than 24 hours," William Quinlan, a senior vice president for CL&P, said at a 6 p.m. news briefing. "We'll be close to completing that tomorrow."
Power had been restored to 210,000 customers by late Tuesday afternoon, Quinlan said, and the company had 1,080 line workers from outside the state working with its own crews to repair lines as well as 638 tree workers to help with downed trees and limbs.
"There's a request across the United States for 22,000 line workers," Quinlan said when asked why the utility hadn't already reached its goal of 2,000 out-of-state line workers. "There's over 6 million customers without power."
CL&P, the state's largest utility, provides power to customers in 149 of Connecticut's 169 municipalities. Every one of those towns was affected in some way by Hurricane Sandy, the utility said.
"Our system took on very heavy damage last night," Quinlan said. The company's priorities today, he said, were clearing blocked roads, assessing damage and establishing staging areas in Waterford, Madison, Newtown, Stamford and Westport.
By far the heaviest damage during Hurricane Sandy happened along the Connecticut shoreline, but some inland towns also have extensive power outages because of wind gusts that took down trees and power lines.
Comparing the damage to last year's outages affecting 800,000 people after a freak October snowstorm, Quinlan said the utility was better prepared for this storm.
"We think we have the resources to deliver a strong response," he said.
Eleven tranmission lines were out because of the storm, but Quinlan said four of those — affecting 30,000 customers — would be restored soon.
The utility urged customers to call 800-286-2000 to report outages, and when the restoration effort is further along, to get an estimate of restoration times.
"We think we're making very good progress," Quinlan said. "As we move into the bulk of the restoration, we'll be energizing large numbers of people."

Mission Control (OS X)
Screenshot of Mission Control in OS X Lion.
|Apple Inc.
|Initial release
|October 24, 2003
(OS X v10.3 "Panther")
|Stable release
|1.2 / July 25, 2012
|Window management tool
Mission Control, formerly Exposé, is a feature of the OS X operating system. First previewed on June 23, 2003 at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference as a feature of the then forthcoming Mac OS X v10.3,[1] Exposé allows a user to quickly locate an open window, or to hide all windows and show the desktop without the need to click through many windows to find a specific target. Exposé was replaced in OS X 10.7 by Mission Control.
Exposé includes three separate features for organizing windows and open applications:
- All windows
- Shows all open and unhidden windows, shrinking their appearance so they all fit on a single screen. By default, this can be activated on older keyboards using the F9 key or by pressing F3 key on the newer Apple aluminum keyboards and the MacBook/MacBook Pro keyboard.
- Application windows
- Shows all open and unhidden windows for the currently active application. Again, the windows shrink to appear on the screen together, but generally they shrink less because there are fewer windows in a single application compared to the system as a whole. During this mode, the user can cycle through windows of different applications by pressing the tab key. In the default preferences, this can be activated using the F10 key on older keyboards or by pressing Control F3 on newer Apple aluminum keyboards and the Macbook keyboard. On OS X 10.6, it can be activated by clicking and holding the application icon in the dock.
- Desktop
- Moves all windows off the screen, with just the edges of the windows visible at the side of the screen, giving the user clear access to the desktop. In the default preferences, this can be activated using the F11 key or by pressing Command F3 on newer Apple aluminum keyboards and the Macbook keyboard.
In the first two cases, after Exposé is activated, the user can select any window by clicking on it or selecting it with arrow keys and pressing Enter. Exposé then deactivates, leaving the selected window in the foreground. Using Apple Mighty Mouse, it is possible to select a window using the Scroll Ball, by scrolling in the direction of that window.
The key used for activating Exposé can be customized to be any of the function keys, the shift, control, option or command key, the fn key on Mac laptops, or even a mouse button on multiple-button mice (including Apple Mighty Mouse).
Exposé can also be activated by moving the mouse to a corner of the desktop using a feature called Active Screen Corners (which is off by default). It can also be activated with a four-finger gesture on the trackpad (only on the current-generation MacBook and 'MacBook'Pro, or by using Apple Magic Trackpad.)
Exposé also works with Spaces, a new feature in OS X v10.5 Leopard, so that a user could see the windows in each desktop scaled down while looking at a scaled down version of each space.
Changes in Mission Control[edit]
When Exposé first premiered in 2003, it could be controlled using the F9, F10 and F11 keys.
The Exposé shortcut keys were moved to the F3 key to make room for the "rewind", "play/pause" and "fast forward" keys. On Mac keyboards made after 2004, Exposé can be activated by using the F3 key or in combination with the command key, or on the trackpad of Macbooks supporting multi-touch interface. (However, F9, F10 and F11 can still be used for controlling Exposé with the function modifier key, or by enabling the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" setting.)
On OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), Exposé featured a new organized grid view and allowed users to activate Exposé from the Dock.
In OS X 10.7 (Lion), Exposé is replaced by Mission Control. It gives an overview of all running applications just like "All windows" but groups windows from the same application. At the top of the screen it gives quick access to the Dashboard, Spaces, and running full screen applications. There however does exist an option for multi-touch trackpad users to gesture an Expose view of the current application (swipe four fingers up or down to show the desktop or display all open windows in Exposé.)
However it is not possible to get an unobscured "Exposé" view of all the windows in single workspace, since windows of the same application are always hidden in bundles. In situations with many windows of the same application the 'mission control' screen will show the user less content, rather than more. It is impossible to select the desired window when there are, for example, 5 Terminals and 4 PDFs displayed. For this reason many users had avoided upgrading to OS X 10.7. This issue was fixed in OS X 10.8, however, with a checkbox in the System Preference pane allowing a user to select between traditional Exposé behavior or newer Mission Control-inspired behavior. Although this option restores much functionality of the previous implementation of Exposé, it does not show the names of the windows displayed, nor does it return the added functionality provided by the <10.6 multiple desktops feature, known as "Spaces," which allowed users to drag and drop windows between desktops with a single click, and also allowed for larger thumbnail previews of each desktop in a 2D grid when in use.
Undocumented features[edit]
The "blob" is a hidden and undocumented interface to Exposé that was discovered by a member of the MacNN forums.[3] When clicked, it enables the "Application Windows" mode. When Option+clicked, it enables the "All Windows" mode.
Another undocumented feature of Exposé is for the show desktop function. It places all the open windows in a small box on the screen that can be moved to anywhere on the screen.[4] This function has some bugs, after exiting the show desktop mode, the foremost window will not have a shadow and the user will not be able to move the window. However, this is easily fixed by using the show all function. It also had another bug that causes an area of screen the width of the minimised preview to become unresponsive to mouse clicks requiring the windowserver to be restarted.
Using the Shift key, Mission Control can be activated in slow motion, as can Dashboard and the minimise effect and several other animations. This is the same effect that was demonstrated by Steve Jobs during the unveiling of Exposé during the 2003 Worldwide Developers Conference.[5][6]
Similar applications[edit]
Similar effects are used on other operating systems.
Microsoft Windows Windows 3.0 first introduced a window switcher in 1990. Using Alt+Tab ↹, users could see a flattened view of all open windows. Every version of Window since then has also provided this window switching functionality. Vista and Window 7 provide an additional feature called Windows Flip 3D, which has a broadly similar purpose. Flip 3D allows a user to flip through all open windows with a 3D perspective. A downside to this method is that the front most window covers a significant portion of the other windows, unlike Exposé. On the other hand, this allows the user to see the contents of the front most window, while this can be difficult in Exposé, especially if the user has a large number of windows open. Vista's Desktop Window Manager exposes a public API that allows any application to access the same thumbnail representations that Flip3D uses, and so there are a number of third party add-ons that are able to provide Exposé-like functionality in Vista. A very few third party applications, such as the Emcee Desktop Organizer, provide Mission Control like organization of similar windows into visual "stacks," or support Windows 8's "Immersive" Apps.
Microsoft's Intellipoint Software for Microsoft Mice has a feature similar to Exposé[7] as it also works with live images of windows, rather than a static representations. Additionally, several freeware Windows applications exist to emulate the functionality of Exposé.
Compiz and KWin are compositing window managers for systems using the X Window System. Both include plugins similar to Exposé - the scale plugin in Compiz and the present windows effect in KWin. Skippy also performs similar functions to Exposé.
Starting with version 3.0, the GNOME desktop environment has gained a new mode called "Overview", which is used to launch applications and manage workspaces. In this mode, windows are scaled and arranged in an Exposé-like fashion for quick switching.
For Classic or Legacy Macintosh systems, the free Finder Workspaces[8] offers functionality similar to Spaces.

Embarkation: We flew to Miami the day before the cruise and stayed at the Embassy suites. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Nice rooms, excellent resturants and free "drinks" from 5pm to 7pm for those who enjoy adult beverages. The breakfeast was good, made to order omlettes and several other selections. We arrived at the port around 10:30am and was onboard by 11:30am exploring the ship.
Cruise: The cruise itself was great. Entertainment all day everyday. The food was good quality. Equivelant to golden corral or your average buffet. The steak house (Scarlett's) was excellent!! Well worth the $35 per person. Shows were great. The magician also put on a great show.Our room was always cleaned while we were out, we never had any complaints about our room stewart. I have read reviews about the food being served cold in the dining room. NEVER came across that, not one time. The deli and pizza stations were great for a quick snack. The noodle bar was also great but the lines were often very long. The ONLY complaint that I would have about the whole trip was that my son was looking forward to getting on the slide every chance he could but for some reason the slide was closed a lot during the cruise. Everytime we inquired about it they said the water was being tested. other than that, it was a great cruise, no complaints about the ship itself, the ship was very clean and the service was great. The staff was very friendly and always spoke when passing by. Very well worth the money.

A woman, her husband and her brother are dead after a shooting early Sunday at a home in Lincoln County, in what appears to be a murder-suicide.
According to Sheriff Murray Blackwelder, deputies were dispatched to the home in the Windwood subdivision around 2 a.m.
When the deputies arrived, they said they found a couple who stated they were in the house when a domestic argument got violent and they heard gunshots in the bedroom.
The couple told police they ran from the home and then heard several more gunshots, Blackwelder said.
Deputies entered the home and found the bodies of two men and a woman in the bedroom.
The bodies were sent to the state medical examiner's office for autopsy and positive investigation, Blackwelder said.
The deceased are believed to be Jeff Faulkner, 50, his wife Julaine Faulkner, 38, and her brother, Ryan Oetken, 33.
Police said the investigation is ongoing.

Pima Community College will be hosting its third public forum tonight, introducing its candidates for the next chancellor. It's part of our continuing coverage on the PCC probation troubles and we'll be following the four chancellor candidates all week.
Tonight we hear from Greg Smith, President of Central Community College in Grand Island, Nebraska. It's part of our continuing commitment to bring you the latest on all four candidates and how PCC plans to fix its probation problems.
Smith rose through the ranks at his current college, starting first as dean of academic services, and then moving on to executive vice president of the institution. He has a degree in experimental social psychology.
Smith is the third chancellor candidate to take questions from the public but he started off the meeting by handing out a statement on how he will require board members to conduct themselves with civility and integrity.
He is currently president of Central Community College in Grand Island, Nebraska, and he didn't sugar coat PCC's leadership problems.
He described the board's response to the Higher Learning Commission report as "dismissive and arrogant," a perspective that audience members seemed to agree with.
Smith says he will not accept the chancellor job unless each board member signs off on the civility statement and reaffirms their oath of office.
From there, Smith says he will help each board member perform at their best.
"One thing that I will ask each board member to do is to assess their own areas of strength and decide where it might be appropriate for them to engage in professional development and then commit to that."
Tonight, he laid out plans to work productively with a board that faculty and staff don't seem to trust.
Right now, he works with a total of eleven board members at his present college.
Smith says he would also meet with the interim chancellor and various PCC groups in his first days as chancellor because his his wife has been a teacher in other colleges.
"I have many years of experience seeing how hard adjunct faculty work and how dedicated they are to students so my basic objective is to make sure that everybody that has a role at the college has a voice at the college."
Smith has been a reviewer with the Higher Learning Commission, the same group that placed PCC on probation.
Members of the public, including PCC faculty, staff, and board members of past and present, have used the forums to ask candidates how they will move the college forward, deal with a dysfunctional board, and use a management style to include input from PCC members.
Candidates Lee Lambert and Terrence Burgess held their forums earlier this week. Tomorrow's forum will feature candidate Lenora Etna Webb.
The forum starts at 5:30 p.m. in the Community Board Room (C-105) of PCC's District Office, 4905 E. Broadway. The meeting will be streamed live on the Internet on the PCC's chancellor search page here: www.pima.edu/about-pima/chancellor-search/index.html

MALONE — Franklin County's part-time tourism promoter may be housed in the District Attorney's Office so she can continue her part-time job there.
The possible change in work site for Fawn Tatro is expected to be discussed at the next meeting of the County Legislature on Thursday.
The move would coincide with the county's intent to take over tourism initiatives and create a 5 percent bed tax to fund proposals most likely to boost economic development.
The bed tax must have approval from the State Legislature and Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
The North Country Regional Economic Development Council recently endorsed the county's effort for a bed tax, which can take up to two years.
And that is about the time Tatro could be promoted to full-time office manager at the DA's Office.
DA Derek Champagne said he lost three positions when the county went through tough budget times three years ago.
He took the hit then with assurances from legislators that when times got better, he could recoup some staff and catch up on the backlog of state-prison reimbursements, he said.
Counties can be paid back for prosecuting inmate-related cases, such as promotion of prison contraband and officer assault.
"We're entitled to that revenue, but I can't get it because I don't have the staff to do it," Champagne said.
Tatro, who was the office assistant under former County Tourism Director Neil Seymour until his September 2011 retirement, is the grand-jury stenographer in the DA's office and would be paid about $25,000 a year for the part-time job.
And if she were trained in other office duties, someone else would be freed up to work on the revenue-generating casework, Champagne said.
When he learned about the proposed tourism-oversight changes, he suggested Tatro be assigned space in his office, which has a separate entrance from the rest of his department.
"She can work it out with the county on the 15 or 20 hours she'll be working for them, and I'll get the rest of the time for her to do grand jury and other things," he said.
That would include training as office manager when Mimi Tulloch retires, which is expected to happen in two years.
"This will give the county two years to find someone else to take over tourism," Champagne said. "It's the best of both worlds for everybody."
The existing Tourism Office shares a board of directors with the County Industrial Development Agency, but legislators will likely change that in a few weeks and direct tourism initiatives to themselves, funded with $350,000 to $400,000 in anticipated occupancy-tax money.
Project proposals up for funding would be voted on by an appointed Tourism Advisory Board and, from there, be presented to the County Legislature for final approval.
Tatro would then carry out the identified projects under the Advisory Board's guidance.

Olympians descend on LondonTuesday, July 17, 2012
LONDON, England (AFP) — Athletes and Olympics visitors descended on London today in the first wave of arrivals for the Games, bumping up traffic through the capital's busy Heathrow airport to record levels.
Around 1,000 members of the so-called "Olympic family", including 350 athletes, were due to fly into Heathrow on the first day of arrivals, as a brigade of cheerful volunteers swung into action to welcome them.
In total almost 237,000 passengers were set to pass through the airport on the western edge of the British capital, compared to 190,000 on an ordinary day, officials said.
"We are expecting people from over 50 nations today," said Tom Willis, operations director for Heathrow's Terminal 4.
"We have spent £20 million getting ready to welcome the world to Heathrow.
"Part of that has been training and recruiting 1,000 Games volunteers from the local community, so visitors will be met by a brightly-coloured, pink-uniformed volunteer who will welcome them to London."
Volunteer Michael Martin, 34, dressed in a bright pink t-shirt as promised, was waiting eagerly at Heathrow to greet athletes arriving ahead of the Games which open on July 27.
"Being part of the Olympics is a great honour and privilege for me," said Martin, who is taking time out of his job as a self-employed architect to work unpaid at the airport.
The US sailing team and Italy's canoeists were among the first to touch down at Terminal 4, followed by members of the Dutch beach volleyball team.
"We are meeting and greeting athletes and higher ranking officials as they get off the plane and we support them through customs," added Martin, one of a band of volunteers who speak 20 languages between them.
"I am hoping to meet some athletes later this afternoon. It's great!"
Despite weeks of apprehension in Britain over mounting queues at passport control at the world's busiest international airport in terms of passenger traffic, the first Olympic arrivals appeared to have few complaints.
The Dutch female beach volleyball players who flew in from Amsterdam wearing their vibrant orange kit said their passage through customs was seamless.
"From the moment we walked off the plane there were people helping us straight away. It is very well organised," said team member Marleen van Iersel.
The blonde 24-year-old, who will be competing in her first Olympics when she joins other teams on London's Horse Guards Parade, said the moment she had waited years for is finally in sight.
"We have been working towards this for four years now so we're very excited," she said, smiling broadly.
Armed police and sniffer dogs were part of the welcome party, but airport bosses played down their presence.
"Security is always a priority at Heathrow," said Willis. "It is business as usual with security, which means it is really very secure and no stone is left unturned."
After stepping off the plane, athletes are being whisked to the Olympic village in Stratford, east London, which will become their home from home for the next month.
Yesterday's arrivals were only the first test for London's infrastructure, with thousands more due in the coming days.

text: Best Cheese 2013 9 Cheeses Worth Seeking Out by Susannah Chen 1/29/13 4 Reactions 80 Shares Print 5 60 10 0 5 Last week's Winter Fancy Food Show was full of chips, crackers, and a number of new food trends, but if there's one product that always characterizes the show, it has to be cheese: it's everywhere. As cheese lovers, we tasted as many as we could spot, and discovered nine that are so memorable, we guarantee they're worth hunting down. Coach Farm Triple Cream Goat Cheese What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 You've probably had a triple cream made from cow's milk, but this triple cream goat's cheese from Coach Farm is out of this world. It's not crumbly like chèvre; instead it's velvety and smooth. — Anna Monette Roberts, assistant editor Photo: Nicole Perry 1 / 9 Finca Pascualete Mini Torta What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This petite Spanish sheep's-milk stunner had a somewhat unusual method of serving necessitated by its luxuriously oozy center. Instead of slicing off chunks, the top rind is sliced off, and the innards are stirred and then scooped out, while the outer rind is kept intact to serve as its container. — Nicole Perry, assistant editor Photo: Nicole Perry 2 / 9 Kaserei Tufertschwil Chällerhocker What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When they discovered what big cheese fiends we were, the importers at Columbia Cheese introduced us to Kaserei Tufertschwil Chällerhocker, which was the most complex, sophisticated Swiss cheese I've ever had. Its nutty, caramelly notes still linger in my memory. — Susannah Chen, editor Photo: Nicole Perry 3 / 9 Vermont Farmstead Cheese Lillé What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The Vermont Farmstead Cheese Lillé became one of our favorites and we guiltily scraped the remnants clean. Like a mushroom-infused brie, you'll love it if you prefer ripe centered cheese and earthy flavors. — AMR Photo: Nicole Perry 4 / 9 Azul Penacorada What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Me gusta queso! This Spanish blue cheese completely baffled my taste buds with its smoky flavor and mouth-numbing affect. Creamy and not crumbly, Azul Penacorada is my new favorite blue cheese, period. — AMR Photo: Nicole Perry 6 / 9 Thomas Hoe Red Leicester What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Admittedly, I first sampled this vibrant-hued cows-milk cheese on a whim, intrigued by its flashy color. Let's just say I'm very glad my curiosity got the best of me, its caramel-notes, firm cheddar-like texture, and tangy barnyard notes combine to create an exceptional choice for bandage-wrapped-cheese aficionados. — NP Photo: Nicole Perry 6 / 9 Clawson Shropshire Blue What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A cross between sharp cheddar and Stilton blue, Shropshire Blue is as colorful as it is flavorful. — AMR Photo: Anna Monette Roberts 7 / 9 Coconut Cheese What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Coconut cheese? I'd never put these two items together, but the creamy aspect of both ingredients married together nicely in this sweet-salty Kokos Coconut Cheese. — SC 8 / 9 Vermont Farmstead Cheese Alehouse Cheddar What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Kettle Chips' Cheddar Beer variety is one of my all-time favorite snacks, and I'm similarly smitten with Somerdale's champagne-infused cheddar, so I was hardly surprised to find myself (and our whole team) falling hard for this nutty ale-infused cheddar. — NP Photo: Nicole Perry 9 / 9 5 60 10 0 5 Back to Homepage Comments Read More 2013 Winter Fancy Food ShowFancy Food ShowCheese Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

Oh yeah. This year's "Jeans and Classics" night was all about Kiss! Melle and I went with friends of mine.
As always, the best part was the people-watching. There's lots of season ticket holders who are probably not in the generation who put on their Kiss make-up and threw devil horns in the smoking section at high school. It's more than entertaining to watch them trying to figure out when they should be applauding a guitar solo (and, I'm sure, wondering where the heck their beloved string section has gone musically).
The crescendo of the evening was "I Wanna Rock n Roll All Night" where our fav lead singer led the crowd to a stand-up, clapping sing-along. He didn't disappoint in the wardrobe department either – leather pants, and possible a codpiece.
The two happiest dudes in the place were Brent and Tom: two 16 year-old skinny geeks who came to celebrate the Kiss in righteous fashion.
Good time had by all.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned: An interview with the mother of Kenneth Harding
by Natasha Reid
Kenneth Harding was fatally shot on July 16 by San Francisco police officers, upon failure to pay a $2 train fare. To make matters more grotesque, the gentlemen from the San Francisco Police Department stood with their firearms still pointed towards Kenneth, watching him quiver in desperation, lying in a warm, sticky pool of his own red, red blood.
His mother, Denika Chatman, who is yet to bury her son, agreed to an interview with the San Francisco Bay View.
Natasha: Tell us a little bit about Kenneth. What kind of guy was he; what did he like to do?
Denika: Kenny was a real happy person. He had a beautiful spirit. He loved his mom. He was really into music and underground rap and really liked most of the local Bay Area underground artists – people from Hunters Point and Fillmore.
Natasha: [To Kenneth Roy] What was your relationship with Kenneth?
Kenneth Roy: Well, I'm like his stepdad 'cause you know his mom is my girl. He came out here [from Seattle] to come to my house.
Denika: He spent his last night with him [Kenneth Roy].
Natasha: What was he doing on his last night?
Kenneth Roy: He was just stressed out and confused about the way life was treatin' him and about what was happenin' in his life. He was just trying to do his best and trying to go to school 'n all that. But then life throw things at you, and when you're young, you don't really know what to do. So we talked to him and told him it was in God's hands.
When he was younger, he really got framed up and got put in prison before he was even 18 years old. So he got sent to a grown man's jail, and got treated like a grown man, before he was even of age to be a grown man. It's the same old story where a Black man messes with a white woman, and she loves you until her family got somethin' to do with it and then she's about to turn on you with the family. That's what he was goin' through, you know, that type of stuff confuses your mind on what reality really is.
Natasha: How did you find out about what happened to Kenneth? What was the first you heard of it?
Denika: Actually, it was Sunday, the day after he was killed. I was watching the six o'clock news and they hadn't released no names or any information that said that it was a local Seattle man that was killed – fatally shot by the police officers. But I just felt like that was my son. I called my mom and asked her to call down here to find out if it was Kenny, and it was.
Natasha: Do you remember the last thing the two of you spoke about?
Denika: Yes [she smiles for the first time]. He called me Friday morning, the day before he was killed. He had just got here. He said: "Mom, I know you see the area code so you know where I'm at. But don't worry about nothin'. I'll be right back; I'm just going to meet Q [his music manager] and we're going to get everything straight, but I need to know how to get a hold of Ken [Kenneth Roy]." I asked him why and he said, "'cause I need to see him, I just need to talk to him." So I told him how to get in contact with him and then I didn't hear from my son again.
Natasha: How have you and the family been coping since Kenneth's murder?
Denika: Everyone has been in shock. There's a loss of words. My daughter out here is the one who took him to go meet Kenny [Roy]. They all spent the night together. She's still in shock. She still can't believe it. He [K. Roy] still has his [K. Harding's] clothes laid out on the couch of what he was gonna change into when he got back.
Natasha: Tell us about the communication you have had with the police since your son was killed.
Denika: Well, we are experiencing [police brutality] for ourselves, first hand. The police have actually made us targets, especially in Seattle. They're doing whatever they can to try to tear us down. I don't feel safe in my home; I don't feel safe being in Seattle.
Natasha: Can you be more specific? What's been going on?
Denika: Well, they falsely raided my house and falsely arrested my other son. They didn't even take him to the precinct. They kept him overnight, assaulting him, beating him. A few days later they put out a police bulletin for his arrest for something they still have not filed charges on him for. They falsely put in the police computer that he's armed and dangerous – he doesn't even own a weapon – so that they have a right to shoot him.
They brought out the SWAT team in full riot gear with assault rifles to my home for nothing – to raid my home for nothing!
It's unreal! I mean, if somebody had told me this kind of thing, I never would have believed them. But because I'm actually experiencing it and seeing it first hand, you know, I'm going through it. And the way that the police have been talking to me, degrading me – I don't know, I haven't disrespected them or talked to them trying to demean them, but they feel like they have the right to do it to me.
Natasha: What have they been saying to you?
Denika: They're talking to me like I'm one of these teenagers out here in the streets and I'm like, are you serious? You're seriously going to sit here and talk to me like this? They said: "You seen what happened to your other son in California. You know it would be a real tragedy to have something happen to this son [Ondrell Harding, in Seattle], but you know how it is." They'll just be making comments like that.
The way that the police have been talking to me, degrading me – they feel like they have the right to do it to me.
Natasha: And how do you retaliate?
Denika: How do I retaliate? Do I just keep quiet? What do I do? I end up with the NAACP, I got the whole Nation of Islam, I have the civil rights activists and protesters: This tragedy is not going to go unsaid.
K. Roy: You got Richmond, California, behind you too [Kenneth Roy is from Richmond].
Denika: So I got support in different areas. It's not over – they're coming after us; we're coming after them with a vengeance.
Natasha: How do you feel about the way this has been handled in the corporate press?
Denika: Actually, I've been staying off of the computer; I've been staying off of the news, because all that they're doing is defaming my son, his character and who he was as a person. So I've just been speaking to people who want to know the real truth, like you, like the Nation of Islam. When people come to me directly and want to know the truth about my son, I don't have any problem expressing it. But, I'm not gonna read the lies and allow people to continue to defame my son.
The police said that my son was a piece of trash and that he got what he deserved. I don't think nobody deserves to be killed in the fashion that my son was. He was clearly running with his hands in the air and they still shot him in the back and they refused to help him.
They refused to let ambulance services in to give him help and be there by his side. If they believe he was a criminal, then they should've let him get the medical help that he needed and let the judicial system take over on his case! You don't have the right to shoot my child down like an animal.
The police said that my son was a piece of trash and that he got what he deserved.
Natasha: All of this attention on Kenneth's criminal record has been used as a ploy to divert attention from the real issue, that is, police brutality. How do we convince people to address the real issue instead of dismissing the whole case upon hearing about Kenneth's alleged criminal history?
Denika: People need to see the truth. The issue at hand is not his character – it is what was done to him. It's sad because, until it happens to somebody close to someone else, some people won't even pay attention. But as a community, we need to stand up and fight for our rights. They don't have the right to do this. I don't know how to reach out to others who are closed-minded.
You don't have the right to shoot my child down like an animal.
Natasha: How do you feel now towards the police? When you're walking down the street and you see a couple of police officers, what is the initial thing that you feel?
Denika: Disgust. Distrust.
Natasha: Do you have fear?
Denika: I'm not scared. Just … disgusted.
As a community, we need to stand up and fight for our rights.
Natasha: Do you think that people living in neighborhoods like Hunters Point have fear of the police?
Denika: They don't. I think they should because they're [the police are] a vicious gang. That's what I think of the police: I think they're a vicious gang. Who's policing them? Who's stopping them from going over the limit? The people in Hunters Point have to live with this. This is their reality and we're only just now seeing what they have to go through in life.
It's not right and it's not fair. Somebody needs to stop the police because they are out of control. I mean, my son got gunned down because of a train ticket? So I can imagine what other things the people of this community have been experiencing in life. If they're like this over train fare, I can imagine what they're like over loitering or that type of thing.
I think the police are a vicious gang. Who's policing them? The people in Hunters Point have to live with this. This is their reality and we're only just now seeing what they have to go through in life.
Natasha: What do you think the differences in attitude towards the police are from people in Black communities such as Hunters Point and more affluent communities?
Denika: Well, some people come from communities where the police actually protect and serve. But here they look at us like we don't matter and treat it as "who cares if they die; it's just one less person to deal with."
K. Roy: The good officers can't even be good officers because they got all the bad ones that they gotta worry about too. It's not right. What is it going to take? What if somebody was doing the same thing that the police are doing to us, to them? Would things look different?
They're acting like they're God or something. They get to judge us and take our lives because they don't feel like we deserve to live. One day the tables are going to turn. And I pray for all of those people who are looking past this, 'cause God will make you pay attention to it one way or the other. Whenever God do what he gon' do to you, I hope it ain't too bad, because I know how it feels.
Natasha: When something like this happens, it makes me think about how Black America hasn't gotten so far since times of slavery. Do you think that people are aware of that reality?
They get to judge us and take our lives because they don't feel like we deserve to live.
Denika: I don't think too many people are aware of what's goin' on in these urban communities because it doesn't affect them. So they don't care. That's when you get the stereotypes of victims who "must have deserved their killing." People can't understand because they don't come from this walk of life.
K. Roy: I saw someone write on the internet that it's one less welfare check that has to be paid.
Denika: Its ignorance! My son wasn't even on welfare.
K. Roy: There's no respect.
Natasha: What do you think we ought to do to give Kenneth the legacy that he deserves? If we fight to try to prevent further police brutality cases, would you see that as at some form of justice for Kenneth?
Denika: Of course. I want to right this wrong. I want something positive to come out of all this negativity. I do want his name to live on because he didn't deserve this.

I think we have a case of felonious bad parenting here.↓
Tash Reid
I thought we were talking about police shooting men for no reason. But yeah why don't you dig up the dirt on the family members and publicly defame them. Bravo.↓
Well, that's why I'm here. To dispel the delusion that Harding was "shot for no reason". Delusions or beliefs cause harm. I see this website as neat for its efforts to improve conditions for incarcerated people. US prison is just hell on inmates and everybody involved. I like the Bayview working toward such stuff. However, the Bayview writers often lie for the cause with regard to lots of stuff. Check out the writings of a fellow called The Minister of Information. That writer probably cannot tell what is real and what is not anymore. He's like a Limbaugh or Glenn Beck.
The truth will set you free. It can be a little embarrassing sometimes though.↓
Kareem Hazard
This article seems biased. I use to read this publication more but it does seem to focus mainly on the negativity. If we shift away from the negative and look at things logically points will be made with out being baised. Instead we should ask Why? Why was he shot? Why haven't you recovered the weapon? Why wasn't the crime scene secured? Why was'nt the paramedics allowed in? Also can we stop refering to Harding as a boy, he was a man. A man was killed not a boy.
"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them." – Dalai Lama↓
Hello Kareem,
You ask:
"Why was he shot?"
Police and some witnesses report Harding fired a weapon while being chased.
"Why haven't you recovered the weapon?"
Because the fellows who video taped (and YouTubed) themselves removing a weapon from the scene have not brought the weapon to police.
"Why wasn't the crime scene secured?"
Video shows a chaotic scene and belligerent crowd shortly after Harding was shot. The few officers on scene had to cope with the crowd rather than properly secure…
"Why was'nt the paramedics allowed in?"
Fire departments stage a short distance away from potentially violent crime scenes until the police can secure the area. That is, a fire department would not arrive on such a scene until it was made relatively safe for medics.↓
We would like answers too…first of all to Denika's Linkedin page. UCD management school of business? When did you graduate? The business you run? How come I cannot find any listing in the state of Ca or Wa for those companies? Are they real compaines? How is it that both of your sons are tied to murders in not only different cities, but different states…hard to throw out the old conspiracy theroy there…yes Denika…we want answers too.↓
Terrible that a young man had to die like that however in reading your article I see the stepdad refer to the mom as "his girl" and the mom says her son was down here meeting a music producer from hp or fillmo!! Sounds like a case of typical denial, he shot at the police, if he woulda shot at anybody on them streets they would have shot back!! Stop infuriating the community he didn't get shot over a $2 fare!! He got shot cause he shot at the police!↓
Boy oh boy!! When will it ever stop!! Is there really any justice in any of this.. I see all this now about Police.. are you aware because of the nature of the murder of my niece,,, we have not been able to have any closure! We have had to deal with armed Police at her services/wake and burial..and my niece was not GANG member and this was NOT GANG related and WHY because of all of this! Our hearts goes out the the this family but should there be a law suit NO.. attention to the why he was GUNNED down YES… But in the same breathe are you all thinking about the way TANAYA was gunned downed .. what went thru her mind.. She know Kenny from school. and how about the her famly and what we have had to endure! And the sad part about it all is the FAMILIES knows each other… and not one time has KEnny's family tired to reach out to TANAYA… what an example!!↓
Malaika H Kambon
of course seamus & surprised… (what are u guys, a tag team?) to which which police precinct are u tied? or should i ask, to which police buttocks are your collective and individual lips attached? this was a lynching in the streets of SF. there is absolutely no difference between the pigs who lynched kenneth harding and stood over him armed to the teeth to make sure he died, and the norwegian thug who just murdered almost 100 (white) people in norway because he couldn't stomach the idea of a multicultural society emerging in a predominantly white country. no difference at all. both entities are socio-pathic. and by the way, so are u two seamus & surprised… u are both complete fools without an active brain cell between u if u have the temerity to suggest that u find it logical to be gunned down for not having a $2 train ticket. i wonder how many skeletons would be discovered in your collective and individual closets – and those of your families? especially if they are discovered when one of your police friends guns u down in cold blood for not having enough money to pay for say, a loaf of bread, or maybe some gas for your car, or maybe a toll bridge fare, or perhaps a roll of bathroom tissue? maybe they should just walk into whatever venue u find yourself in if say u forget your wallet at home and gun u down for being so irresponsible as to 'leave home without it.'
How f**king dare u suggest that the lives of AFRIKAN people are worth no more than a $2 train ticket because your negative active, retroviral cellular components cannot see the illogic to allowing thugs with guns into uniform and giving them carte blanche to use them. especially when those same thugs now maintain that Mr. Harding somehow managed to run away from them and shoot himself and fall down dead from a self inflicted bullet wound to the back….with an imaginary gun … which of your butt cheeks do u 2 attempt to think with – more importantly, why do u try?
obviously u are not capable of thinking yourselves awake.
therefore, shut up.↓
So long as black people refuse to value their own lives, we cannot expect anyone to (1) give a damn about us or (2) hesitate to take us off the planet rather than expose themselves to the insanity. While you are spewing your bile, please recall that the two "young revolutionaries" are so far implicated in the death of at least one black woman, an unborn child and an active father of young boy. Your rhetoric is just tired and useless. If you are serious about saving black lives, you would dedicate your energy to reducing black on black violence. The truth is that you have so little faith in the ability of black people to stop acting like fools that you won't even bother. You have no faith in your own people so..you spend your time blaming the police. Any word on who killed Oscar Grant's friend or why he died? Any word on how many other blacks have been gunned down in your area since this foolishness?
We must first acknowledge where we are to determine where we are going. We are wrapped up in inferiority and self hatred to such an extent that we can only mobilize (Really just spout 60's rhetoric) when an outside force acts against a black person. We don't believe in ourselves to demand better of ourselves. Lastly, it is the actions and expressions of dysfunction that show that BLACKS/AFRICANS don't think their lives are worth: a 10 cent condom, a free book, a kind word, a fruit as opposed to a "drank" I could go on but I will let that marinate for a while. Btw, what's the ratio cop related deaths to black on black deaths in the area so far? Is it 30 or 45 to 1. I will "shut up" and wait for your answer.↓
That doesn't excuse the enemies behavior
Because our enemies NEVER saw us as Humans from the beginning when we first arrived here
and was forced into slavery.
Yeah we do have issues of self-hatred but even if we start to look in that "mirror" and check our self-hate, to ending the self-hate we always have an enemy that shows hatred for us. By nature we are not hateful people our enemy who has historically, check his history, always lived with hatred so therefore our enemy, the Caucasoid will perpetuate the hate.↓
Robin Robinson
Are you really Black?! Did you come throw salt into the wounds of a Mother who is grieving for her murdered son. You sound like a delightfully ignorant UNCLE TOM! The topic of the Article was the Murder of Kenneth Harding and what his family is going through at this difficult time. Then here you come the, House Nigger"bringing Police talking points. You vilify a whole Race and the blame the victim. You are really disgusting.The man who killed the young lady who was pregnant was arrested the day after Kenneth Harding was murdered.
You can belittle Blacks all you want. Does that make you feel better about your self. I can see from your post your are incapable of critical thinking. Hell, you don't even show common sense. Blacks kill Blacks, Whites kill Whites, Asian kill Asians and so on. But not only are Blacks killing Blacks POLICE are killing Blacks!! You are a very sick person the only self hatred I see is coming from your own comment. So what is the point of your Post. You need to Marinate for a while in a HISTORY BOOK, Real History not just HIS-Story!↓
Heya Mal,
Thanks for the reply.
U: "there is absolutely no difference between the pigs who lynched kenneth harding and stood over him armed to the teeth to make sure he died, and the norwegian thug who just murdered almost 100 (white)"
There are many differences. Note the circumstances of both killings and note the evidence.
U: "How f**king dare u suggest that the lives of AFRIKAN people are worth no more than a $2 train ticket…"
I have never remotely suggested such a thing. I suspect you are making making things up because stuff that's actually there won't aid you in vilifying me. Only you really know though.
How can you not see the words on the screen?
U: "obviously u are not capable of thinking yourselves awake. "
That's what Believers with heads in very small boxes say to those not inside the box.↓
Robin Robinson
Is there any way to block racist & quislings? There are some very disgusting people who come here to Post. They sound like blood lusting beast, something so vile and disturbing there is not even a name for them.
This article is about the grief and subsequent sufferings being afflicted on the Mother of a MURDERED CHILD, murdered under the color of Law! And because he BLACK he or his family don't deserve compassion. So instead of staying on Topic here come Racist white vultures and their house nigger comrades to claim their cup of blood too!
The Racist Whites who come here to demean and make derogatory stereotypical statements about Blacks. They are surely a great example of the "Pot Calling The Kettle Black" I've seen pictures of White men, women, & children standing around celebrating while a Black man, woman or child hung from a tree. That is beyond SICK! They made murder, lynching raping & robbery a family affair. I've also read that Whites cut off the breast of the Indigenous women of this country, and used their breast for gun powder pouches. You wont hear them say anything about their murderous past, present or future. They have The Mafia, Hitler, Stalin all White, Mass Murderers! What about Jefferey Dahmer, He was not just a murderer he was also a CANNIBAL! Ted Bundy, The Green River Killer, The Boston Strangler. There are shows on Cable TV that run 24/7 about the murderes that whites commit against each other. Shows like "True Detective" ID Discovery" "48 Hours" So you White people who come here thinking you're so pure. Believe me it is only a figment of your imagination. You are the most violent people on the face of the Earth. History proves it!
Malcolm X had a name for the willfully ignorant of our own Race. Those who feel the need to protect "massa" at all cost. The H.N. comes and blames the victim,with their "I'm a credit to my race" mentality and actually think some gives a Damn about what they have to say. Malcolm X called them "HOUSE NIGGERS" they don't even deserve to be acknowledged.↓
stop killing
What about Pierre?
The "community" didn't want any answers about this 16 year olds senseless death.
Because the Mother of the child who witnessed the shooting, didn't want him to talk to the police.
Pierre was shot in the abdomen, he bled out laying on the side walk.
He was shot and died on Rainier and South Morgan St. in Seattle.
Who's fault was it?
Evidently not the child who shot him.
Why hasn't any one been charged?
Because the Mother of the other child could have cared less. And because it wasn't the police that pulled the trigger.
Get it?↓
Malaika H Kambon
oh & surprised – what are u doing on Denika's LinkedIn page? Were u invited? i doubt it seriously. trying to do a bit of cyber snooping, eh? which puppeteer set u on that course?
beware all, a cyber spy is loose!
regardless as to what her page says or doesn't, or your interpretation of it. I have no idea. but the bottom line is that it is HER page – NOT yours. u are trespassing.
since u like to wrap your mouth around the concept of heedlessly spreading bullets about, what would u do if you found someone trespassing on your LinkedIn – or whatever pages?
don't lie now… tell the truth & shame the devil… and stop hiding behind that KKK hood/sheet because it cannot quite cover the venom on your lips escaping from between your teeth…
obviously somewhere, there is a village that has lost its collective/individual idiots. since u all are a tag team… pucker up and figure out what your next magical trick will be before you're caught and returned to the cage (read: asylum?) with the rest of the terrorists in blue.↓
Not impressed
This is the biggest pile of horse manure I have ever read.↓
In terms of finding out what "really" happened to K. Harding, it would have been helpful if Bayview citizens had not removed evidence from the crime scene, including shell casings and weapon…
It seems there is an impasse: some people are so stuck viewing everything through the lens of racism that they refuse to believe anything else is possible. If Bayview citizens (and Denika Chatman) refuse to believe anything that comes out of the SFPD's mouths, even if it has to do with technical facts like gunshot residue or bullet trajectory, there is NOTHING the police can do to work with this community. It seems people are willing to close their eyes to facts in order to believe whitey or the Man is out to get them. If so, maybe the police should just forget about the community and let it police itself. See how that goes after a month.
In addition, it's not just the police saying Harding shot at police: it's eyewitnesses. Same with the other Harding who is alleged to have beaten a man to death in front of his wife and young daughter: (black) eyewitnesses. As well as medical evidence, most likely.
People are free to believe that the police are all corrupt, that they're all out to get black people, that they always lie and somehow fake very complex scientific tests for evidence, just because they want to see a black person in jail. They can believe it, but it doesn't make it true. And in the long run, it only hurts the believer, not the police. If you want to change the system, learn about it, work with it. Shouting out untruths on the internet or elsewhere is like a dog inside a house barking at a squirrel outside: it makes a lot of noise, but achieves exactly nothing.↓
Please someone tell me how two of her sons turned out to be criminals. I feel for this women because I am a mother too, but lets be real, for some reason they were not raised right. I am tired of these mothers talking about how these kids are angels and yet they terrorize or own black community. Lets start standing up for kids that overcome obstacles and achieve. These are the real heroes. RAISE YOUR KIDS!!!!↓
The only thing more comical than your post is the fact you seem to allude to living in some type of just society where police don't lie or kill people unless their a big bad criminal. I imagine you say all this while sitting on stolen land and Indian corpse while sipping stolen tea in your just world of amnesia and selective truth.↓
Cause if I cut my foot off today it will not affect the future. O and the police just started killing people in 2011. As far as articulation not sure what you mean because it's baseless. I imagine if you had influence over any young people they'd probably believe every lie SFPD spouts.↓
Just it case it was lost in my last post:
1. What is the current ratio of officer involved shootings resulting in death to black on black shootings resulting in death in your area?
2. If your primary concern is saving black lives, doesn't it make more sense to focus energy on something that will save more lives?
3. Bonus question! If black folks are shooting up vigils for a dead pregnant girl, how can we trust folks to unify against the police? "You can't unite bananas with scattered leaves."
(Let's see how long it takes for someone to actually answer these questions without trying to avoid the obvious.)↓
Whether you think her kids are good or bad, it is beside the point. The main point here is that the police, without having any idea who he was or what he might have done in the past, shot him over a train token! Is this the precedent that we want to set? What if it was your son? If they kill someone over a train token, then might they kill someone who just looks suspicious? Someone who looked at them the wrong way? Someone who jaywalked or went 2 miles over the speed limit? They don't CARE if you raised your kids right or not. They indiscriminately shot him dead over nothing, and THAT is the issue here, not whether or not this mother lives up to your expectations.↓
Robin Robinson
HE WAS NOT SHOOTING AT POLICE!!! Ignorance must be bliss in your small little world.↓
Amazing you can say this with no proof, where are the pictures of the bullet holes or the mystery gun that always appears after the pigs shoot someone.↓
yah right
wow. what a pathetic article. that woman has some nerve getting all self-righteous. i want to know about her parenting skills, or lack thereof. how do you end up with two kids with criminal records for multiple felony offenses if you are a good parent? and how is it police brutality if you shoot at them first and then shoot yourself?↓
Renaldo Ricketts
Am dumbfounded when I read about the idiotic keystone cop nonsense surrounding this case"Kenneth Harding " . I've not seen such foolishness in a long time and find it almot impossible to find an analogy. We're not going to sit idle and allow this crime to go unpunished. We should picket the police station daily as a reminder,that this barbaric behavior is going to stop ,Now ! They have no respect for you that's the only conclusion I could come too. This type of foolishness and incompetence would have never happen in a white hood. You're viewed as a subhuman being and are treated accordingly,not even poor whites gets this. People should show up by the thousands and demand thye tell the truth!↓
Ian McManus
Seamus?? what kind o bloody daft round the bend name is that? Bollocks! Anyway why don't you and your toothless bleedin Al Lee Bammer K.K.K self go and play on the train tracks and get run over repeatedly by several freight trains?? Trust me you will not be missed. Chained by the neck in mums dark dank dungeon yah phookin three clawed drooling inbred sloth bangin away at a computer, whose mum is his sister….. well that's how y'all do it up in the hills…. Billy! You and racist killer cops withe a license to kill can sod off!↓
Hello there,
Apparently, they found the Harding's weapon. Just an fyi. http://blogs.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2011/07/kenne…
It does look like the weapon the fellow picked at the scene, per the video.↓
Whoa is me! Poor, Denika, imagine the difficulties of having not one but two mis-understood, innocent little lambs. Kenneth and Ondrell wandering through a life of love and service to their fellow man only to be distracted from their righteous paths by frame-ups , trumped up charges and elaborate police conspiracies against her sweet boys.
It couldn't possibly be anything they might of done. It's always the fault of the police, the government, 400 years of oppression. Anything of course that avoids self-examination or accountability .
Will we ever learn that our destiny is in our own hands? We have the power to change our own lives but not until we accept responsibility for our own actions. Want to avoid interaction with the police? Simply stop breaking the law, don't give them a reason to even look at you . Stop carrying guns, stop dealing drugs and killing each other. Finally, when you're on the run, do everything right and BUY A FUCKING MUNI TICKET!
It would be nice if just one of these articles reported a few actual facts. Kenneth Harding fled to San Francisco to avoid the Seattle police, to avoid questioning and likely a parole violation.↓
Conder how elaborate a setup would be required.
Police would have to…
Shoot an unarmed man running away from them.
Initiate a previously-planned placement of a weapon on the ground, out of reach of police. & Video same at the scene moments after the shooting. (The YouTube guys)
Then, influence the county coroner to substitute the lethal bullet with a smaller caliber bullet, make the wound appear from a .380, not .40.
CSI would also have to be induced to make a false report regarding powder burns on Harding's hand.
All police at the scene (at the time of the shooting) would have to lie about seeing Harding fire a weapon.
And, the police would have to get some witnesses at the scene to say they saw and heard Harding fire a weapon even though he didn't.
"Find" a handgun for framing Harding — Either use one seen in YouTube vid or similar (Appears YouTube video tapers would have to be police or something like that.)
I think the Hardings' lawyers won't actually try to make this case in court. Unless some evidence turns up damning police, I don't think there should be any settlement money involved.
Who knows, maybe something new will turn up aiding a Harding-side case. It's just that nothing has done yet.↓
Not feeling very compassionate towards Momma right now. It sounds like she's like many of the mommas in my neighborhood, who don't instill a sense of personal responsibility in their sons. Instead, when they are caught doing stupid self-endangering things (at the least damaging end of the spectrum) things– or straight up endangering the lives, safety, and peace of mind of others (worst case scenarios), mommas like this claim their sons are victims or that they are misunderstood good boys who love their mommas.
I live in a 'hood where there are roving mini-mobs of 8 year old boys who terrorize elders, engage in strong-arm robbery, and practice demeaning comments & behaviors out on females. Where, last Friday, an 11 year old black girl was playing outside her home & a young man tried to drag her into his car.
Living in the midst of this madness, I wonder what it means when a Momma of a 9 year old black male threatens a cop when her son is caught shooting an air soft gun into a passing car (after shooting at & hitting a passerby only minutes before), and tells said cop that "We take care of our own."
My response is: So, how's that working for you?
"Danika", your boys are thugs. They are violent predators. Your son was shot by his own gun, after running from cops for doing something stupid, and shot at them while running through a playground.
More fool you.↓
Renaldo Ricketts
I can't even fathom the pain Kenneth Harding's mother is feeling,seeing her son take his last breath on film . There are no words to discribe this ,only a hurt so deep it must have shattered bones in her body as she cried in agony .No one should have to witness such inhumanity especially a mother viewing her son's final moment on earth. peace on to the Harding family.Much love ♥↓
Johnathan McFarland
I feel I am so connected with this family. My heart goes out to you. I have insisted that we all care for each other and take care of each other, but to those who are pompous and perhaps ridiculous, this falls on deaf ears. I am very affluent myself and able to do what I can when I can, but I spend so much of my time and money now trying to reach out to the youth. Trying to educate them in their lives and to see that how we are living is not working. But, other pompous jerks can not see clearly how we are all connected. They just pass blame so they do not have to accept responsibility. It it now my intentions to meet this family.
I do wish that others would find either some courage or some brains. For, if you had brains, you would see a need for courage to make change happen. It is so necessary.↓
i feel very sad for for Denika Chapman and the tremendous loss she must she must be enduring. However, my worst fear for her is that this end was all too predictable and that she was powerless to alter the the trajectory of her sons lives.↓
this isn't even a race issue. The man ran away from a ticket for not paying a two dollar bus fare, felt it was needed to whip out a gun and start firing at police. The police fired back and the man ultimately killed himself by accident. There was .38 bullet recovered on his body, a slug in his head, gun shot residue on his hand, and multiple witnesses claiming he fired first. How do people dismiss that, and say "police gunned down an unarmed BOY that didn't pay bus fare?" This isn't really a big deal.
Oh btw, why did he have a gun on him?
And to the bayview staff, your newspaper/website is biased and terrible.↓
Kenneth Roy King-KessDabess
@ 123 wHEN THEY FIND THE GUN LET ME KNOW. wATcH THE VIDEO B4 YOU START LISTENING TO THIS AMERICAN MEDIA. tHE SAME MEDIA THAT TELLS US THE TRUTH ABOUT IRAQ RIGHT? LOL LOOK AT THE VIDEO WITH MORE THEN 5 OFFICERS RIGHT THERE AND HE ONLY GOT A HUNRED FEET WHERE'S THE GUN…. HE JUST LEFT MY HOUSE HE HAD KNOW GUN… yOU MIGHT BE ONE OF THE OFICER'S TRYING TO CLEAN YOUR DIRTY HANDS…. THIS IS A LIFE NOT A TICKET OR FARE EVASION. I HOPE YOUR KID DON'T DO THE SAME↓

When firefighters enter a burning building, they must keep in physical contact with each other to stay together, which limits their mobility and, when contact is broken, results in injuries and fatalities. The TekAlert E-Team developed the Team Accountability Buddy System (TABS), which uses proximity-sensing wireless technology to allow firefighters to free their hands and conduct more efficient searches while maintaining team integrity. TABS allows firefighters to work a safe distance apart, determined by visibility. When a member of the group is outside the distance limit for thirty seconds, the audible and visual beacon system activates, guiding the group back to the missing firefighter. Each unit is interoperable and compatible with all other units.
