You're welcome!
This is James ROSS' DC, but won't help much.
There are 3-4 James ROSS' 1870-80 VA, but have no idea which one might be yours.
I'm sure you know, unless they were free, you will not find your ancestors, by name, prior to the 1870 census, only 1850-60 Slave Schedule by sex/age. Oftentimes, when an owner dies, he/she will name the slaves in their will, and sometimes even free them! Because of his birth yr James was born a free man, but probably his parents were not.
Best of luck....you're going to need it, but not impossible.

Truly loved it! Annie is stellar. The mannerisms, the accent, the drama. She inhabits the character. She made us laugh and wax nostalgic and think. Supporting cast of "the children" and "the handyman" were equally up to the task. We (four friends and I) rate this as a truly amazing experience that we were privileged to enjoy together. And special "props" to the set designer ... Every last detail of tha Queens kitchen and bedroom set was real and resonated. We'd see it again in a hearbeat ... And maybe will. Don't miss it.

I was almost prepared to be let down after all the hype when it played at the Odyssey, especially touting Annie Potts's "as seen onTV". However, I was not at all disappointed. This was excellent ensemble acting, nicely staged.

"Shoenman's play is powered by an emotional authenticity both funny and wrenching… At the end of this fast-moving 80 minutes, you'll feel you've been through all the stages of grief. And emerge, moved, on the side of life." —Los Angeles Times (Critic's Choice)

Mutations in several ribosomal proteins (RPs) lead to Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA), a syndrome characterized by defective erythropoiesis, congenital anomalies, and increased frequency of cancer. RPS19 is the most frequently mutated RP in DBA. RPS19 deficiency impairs ribosomal biogenesis, but how this leads to DBA or cancer remains unknown. We have found that rps19 deficiency in ze-brafish results in hematopoietic and developmental abnormalities resembling DBA. Our data suggest that the rps19-deficient phenotype is mediated by dysregulation of deltaNp63 and p53. During gastrulation, deltaNp63 is required for specification of nonneural ectoderm and its up-regulation suppresses neural differentiation, thus contributing to brain/craniofacial defects. In rps19-deficient embryos, deltaNp63 is induced in erythroid progenitors and may contribute to blood defects. We have shown that suppression of p53 and deltaNp63 alleviates the rps19-deficient phenotypes. Mutations in other ribosomal proteins, such as S8, S11, and S18, also lead to up-regulation of p53 pathway, suggesting it is a common response to ribosomal protein deficiency. Our finding provides new insights into pathogenesis of DBA. Ribosomal stress syndromes represent a broader spectrum of human congenital diseases caused by genotoxic stress; therefore, imbalance of p53 family members may become a new target for therapeutics.

Rumors that city bureaucracy has stymied the new ice cream shop at the old Small Adventures bookstore in Gulfport are "absolutely unfounded," according to Community Development Director Fred Metcalf. The owners have spoken to Mike Taylor, a planner with the city, but no one, Metcalf says, has told them they could not open an ice cream shop. Taylor has told the new owners they will have to go through the same process for opening a business as any other business in Gulfport, but, as Metcalf told the Gabber, "that hasn't stopped any of the other businesses"downtown. …Pia's Trattoria has stopped serving brunch on Sundays, effective this past Sunday, although they do still serve lunch. …The Beach Bazaar has also closed its doors on Sundays. Co-owner Angela Lagan, who says last summer's numbers on Sunday factored into her decision, told the Gabber she intends to remain closed on Sundays until season starts, "unless I hear from hordes of people with an antiques' emergency."

Me and Oppo...we definitely got a thing going
This phone rocks...get the black though the white does not look elegant but reflects cheapness.
when i bought this the seller said Oppo was giving a bonus casing. Initially i wanted the flip cover with display window but somehow it does not work. when you receive a call the screen remains off when u flip open the cover it turns on. Beats the whole purpose of having a preview window. And to think this is original accessories from Oppo?
The Positive
- Thin and light but great build. No creaks or crevaces
- Amazing battery life. I set the phone to auto-on 8am and auto-off 11pm. During the day plenty of forum browsing, google-play browsing, scheduling and talk, yet by 9 pm the battery only just gave me the 20% mark warning.
- Screen is fantastic. don't bother getting a lcd protector as its already gorilla glass. At the end i just got the hardcase back-cover and it just rolls around in my bag but no damages or scratches
The Negative
- Only 16GB Internal, no expansion. Not suitable if your the type that carries movies or music. Out of the box it was only 14GB, some customizations but nowhere as bloated as Samsung
Thanks Oppo !

Bought this oppo mirror and used it for a month but there are problems with GPS that never works at all, wifi that stop by itself and I can't turn it on again, even if I have rebooted.
And the newest trouble is my screen suddenly turn red with notice MT662x coredumo starts. please wait up to 5 minutes. And after 5 minutes of waiting it still red with notice MT662x coredump ends.
I have contacted the service center they suggest me to upgrade to colorOS but i haven't done it yet because there are still a lot of bugs for colorOS.
Anybody experience the same thing?
One more thing, the casing they gave me when i buy the phone makes my oppo mirror camera can not take a picture with flash light because of the casing makes the picture blur at the bottom.
now thinking of selling my oppo and find samsung.

Only set back is dial screen with white background n grey/light blue number not changeable, uneasy for reading. If black color number/alphabet will be perfect coz this phone contras is very good!

Bought this phone today. It's dual gsm with 3G feature so helpful to use for people with very mobile activities. We can exchange the network 3G from sim1 to sim2 without exchange the cards position like others dual sim phones... As far this phone rocks! Except the UI, no option to sort applications aphabeticaly. And the default keyboard so annoying (Go keyboard) because i don't need predictions function. I installed AI keyboard... Problem solved.

Firefighters: House total loss after early-morning fire
Updated On: Feb 18 2013 08:32:20 AM EST
Firefighters spent Monday morning at a house fire in Madison Township.
Butler County dispatchers said they received calls about a fire before 4 a.m. Monday in the 3100 block of Radabaugh Road.
Dispatchers said four departments were called to the scene. Crews from Madison Township, St. Clair Township, Monroe and Trenton assisted with the fire.
911 callers described the home as fully engulfed in flames.
Investigators said they believe the fire started in the kitchen, but an official cause was not released.
The family that lives at the home made it out safely. Three people were displaced because of the fire.
Firefighters said the house was considered a total loss.

This wonderful poppy print is by the artist Max Theodore Streckenbach (1863 - 1936) . It's a superb study of richly-hued Oriental poppies, both in full bloom and rounded bud heads. There are also creamy white viburnum snowball hydrangeas awaiting their turn to be added into the vase. Streckenbach was a master at portraying the poppy and other Summer flowers, and this one is outstanding in every way.

Up Against the Wall in EgyptPosted: October 28, 2014 Filed under: Egypt, Egyptian Politics Leave a comment
A recent conversation with an Egyptian businessman sheds light on the current situation in the country. He is a young man who started his own technology business and continues to try to grow it against all odds. Such entrepreneurs can lead Egypt out of the economic doldrums. His small business is not beholden to the state and employs dozens of people at decent wages. It is not unduly romantic to see such business as a microcosm of a desirable Egypt, as it employs both men and women, of different faiths and political views. In time a burgeoning Middle Class would demand, and ultimately find, respect for its freedom and property. Up until 2011 the picture was bright. He was able to attract many foreign contracts by a combination of a good product at lower prices. Furthermore, Egypt was considered an upcoming "tiger" and an attractive destination.
The first hit came in January 2011. The idiot who turned off the internet to thwart foreign plotters probably had no thought, or little cared, that it would also irritate foreign clients. There was an uptick of good will during the short after-glow of the revolution. But by the summer of 2011 there was further turmoil, which continues to this day. For a man trying to sell his wares abroad, Egypt's current reputation is a nasty head wind. The narrative is one of protests, sexual harassment, religious zealotry, intolerance, repression, violence and a near insurgency. Few Egyptians have read H.L. Mencken on Journalism, and they see dark plots where there is only the natural inclination to report the most stirring news. To be fair, Egypt has handed reporters plenty of rich yarn to weave a dark tapestry. Any attempt to find hope, or balance the picture, is often rejected as justifying government repression. There is even the occasional esteemed academic who rejects any warm feelings toward the country with unhelpful snark.
It goes without saying that the political and cultural elites of Egypt have failed it. This is of little comfort to someone trying to meet a payroll. Yet there is little concern for such men, or for the people who are on the receiving end of the payroll. They are squeezed on all sides. There is the Army, which is traditionally statist and has little understanding of the environment necessary to promote entrepreneurship. The Brotherhood respected the market place, but its eyes were always on a higher goal, and its aging leaders are willing to bring down the house. Many supporters of the former regime are smarmy, and a few are outright crony capitalists. Many of the activists agitating for political freedom lean heavily left, and have little sympathy for business or the role it might play in cementing actual freedoms. The population at large is suspicious of those who prosper and maintain foreign connections. The most damaging binary dynamic is that of protest and the government's ham-fisted response to it.
Protesting to achieve social or political reform is now considered praise-worthy. The canonization of men such as Gandhi or Martin Luther King has obscured their real achievements. Their success is due less to their saintly character, or the purity of their goals, but more to their political acumen. In the struggle against injustice they chose their weapons well, and wielded them with deftness in selective battles. Above all, they were realistic political men. Even in the best of cases protest is an uncertain business. Indian independence was a bloody affair, and would have been far bloodier without the leadership of Nehru, who was not overly fond of Gandhi, and because of his readiness to cut deals, and if rumors are right, fall into bed with his opponents. Yet in Egypt people seek a narrative without shades, of right and wrong, good people and bad ones. It is a mirage. Questions must be asked about protest; such as who are the protestors, what is their program for governance, how do they see the rest of the world and society, do they relate to the average man, and most importantly, has protest worked or landed Egypt in deeper straights. Yet to ask these is to invite accusations of collaboration with the regime, indifference or even cruelty. These accusations must be received with equanimity and returned with affection. But they do little to further understanding or show a way out of the current mess. Protesters often have the enormous courage to face jail or worse, but not to subject their views and tactics to criticism. As an enterprise, the goals of protests are laudable, but their balance sheet is increasingly negative.
The poet Qabbani wrote : "for daring to approach your deaf walls I was beaten with my own shoes". The lines are meant to evoke anger at the cruel ruler. But we can read them in a different way; as a cautionary tale about the futility of approaching the crumbling walls and seeking redress from the fearful men within. Better to keep the shoes firmly on, march forward, and build a different edifice; perhaps not a shining city on a hill, but a sturdier structure on less shifting sand. It is not that Egypt has lacked for dissidents who withdrew from society to build a different one. Islamists, Salafis, and to a lesser extent Copts have all done so. Yet what they have built is either too small to matter or too grotesque to fathom. Neither the protesters, nor those seeking to silence them, have advanced a workable vision of governance, prompting one Egyptian historian to borrow from Kolakowski, and Baudelaire, to describe the conflict as between lovers of clouds and lovers of prostitutes. To describe a private business that makes a healthy profit from foreign exports as "non-governmental organization with foreign funding" is to provoke nervous laughter. In Egypt's current koftesque stage what is literally true is also undeniably false.
In the end both protests and the attempts to suppress them have to be mindful of not crossing the line the binds people into a cohesive society, a test that Egypt currently fails. The authorities will not calculate the cost of success, nor the protesters the cost of failure. The vision remains of raging against a wall, rather than building a bridge. Few are willing to either co-opt or be co-opted.
Another conversation closes this post. It is with a veteran of the student protests at Columbia. The aging man, still inordinately fond of his younger, slimmer and hairier self, recalls a heady moment of protest. He had taunted and jeered the police for two days before finally lobbing a rock in their general direction. He was charged by a policeman who pinned him with the hackneyed scream "Spread'em .. against the wall M*F*". He shot back "can we discuss this over a slice of Pizza?". The policeman softened slightly, "maybe, but after I bust you and get off shift". The exchange did not save him from arrest, a night in jail, and a misdemeanor fine, nor change his persistently idealistic and radical politics. Still, even to his resolutely unsentimental listener, and one who harbors considerable doubt about the details, the fable has resonance.

Sadat ReconsideredPosted: October 6, 2014 Filed under: Egypt, History 1 Comment
Labor Day 1981 was the latest it could be, tacking on a few additional days to the summer and making a quick side trip to Egypt possible. The Egypt of late August 1981 was a troubled and troubling place. The entire country, or at least what could be glimpsed of it, was in a grumpy and sour mood. The victory of 1973 seemed a distant memory. The expected peace dividend was not at hand. President Anwar El Sadat was dancing faster on the high wire, leaving the country dizzy and confused. Everywhere there was evidence of dissatisfaction and signs of trouble ahead. Little united people beyond dislike for Sadat. The owner of a newspaper Kiosk, once thought to be kindly and avuncular, lashed out at the President in vituperative words. He was a "Pharaoh", a "black donkey", who played the fool to the admiring West. His closeness to the Jews and the Americans had split Egypt. He complained bitterly about the Copts, stopping suddenly at the realization of his listener's religion. Further up the social ladder, people were also angry. Corruption among Sadat's favorites was fierce. The country's economy was in shambles. The agreement with Israel was a humiliation. The litany of complaints went on and on. Sectarian clashes had roiled Cairo that summer, and some neighborhoods were practically sealed off. "This would never have happened under Nasser", huffed a man who suffered a few months in jail for his criticism of the great leader. There was menace in the air. An attempted courtesy call on Bishop Samuel as aborted; he was "exceptionally pre-occupied with important matters". A priest hinted, sotto voce, that a quick exit from Egypt is wise, in case airports are suddenly closed. As the airplane lifted off the runway, Cairo, and the surrounding verdant valley, suddenly disappeared from view in a yellow haze. There was nothing but enveloping sand, leaving an uncomfortable feeling that a certain Egypt had completely disappeared; or perhaps, more ominously, that it had never existed beyond a cherished imagination.
In the 1980s the Egyptian newspaper, Al Ahram, was regularly available at a corner newspaper stand on Bleecker Street in Greenwich Village. The edition appearing on Labor Day contained an account of President Sadat's speech on September 5. The man, at least it seemed at that time, had come unhinged. Sadat Agonistes was at war with the rest of Egypt. He had ordered the entire elite of the country to march off to jail. Listening to the speech for the first time, decades later but before the January 2011 events, still did not change that impression. Expounding for nearly two and half hours, Sadat poured out his frustrations and anger in loopy anecdotes, complicated grievances, remembrances of his great moments, and anger at the country that refused to embrace him. He lashed out at the Muslim Brotherhood leader, and the Coptic Pope. He accused the Brotherhood of sectarianism, but repeated their charges. The speech was high drama, one that would require an entire army of psychologists to unravel its layers. Through his mouth poured out all of Egypt's darkness. The leader and the country had become one in anger. Exactly three years after his triumph at Camp David, all seemed to be going badly for him. A month later he was dead. In reality, Egypt had left Sadat well before she took his life.
The reports of his death made it obvious how Sadat was becoming a foot note. In the pre-Internet age news traveled leisurely, especially for those who owned neither a TV nor a Radio, nor cared much for newspapers. The news of Sadat's assassination came in a terse phone call. The caller reported the sad news of Bishop Samuel's assassination, and only later in the call, and after some pressing, did it become clear that Sadat was also among the victims. Three American Presidents walked in his funeral, but barely any Egyptians bothered to show the outpouring of grief that accompanied Nasser's passing a decade earlier. It was easy to ignore Sadat in the subsequent decades, and hold onto the low esteem that had built up in the last few years of his life, at least until the recent events in Egypt.
Sadat's short and turbulent term in office may deserve another look. The political stagnation that accompanied Mubarak's three decades have dimmed the memory of the wild gyrations of the Sadat years, which occurred as regularly as the flooding of the Nile. The view had built up that his actions represented less of a plan and more of a high wire act by a politician seeking to survive, figuratively, and ultimately, alas, literally. His own actions made this uncharitable view plausible. Some never forgave him for dalliances with the Brotherhood, a move that he ultimately regretted anyway. Others saw in his frequent interviews with the likes of Barbara Walters an embarrassing spectacle. Even those who agreed with coming to terms with Israel felt that he done so chaotically, perhaps embarrassing Egypt as a result.
Is there room for a revision of this view of Sadat? Watching his September 5 1981 speech a year after the removal of President Morsi brings out an interesting new view of him. It is possible that Sadat was a man more in touch with his country, for better or worse, than the legion of urbane elitists who derided him. His life is defined by his ambition to rise above his modest beginnings; and willingness to do so with any tool available at hand. He may have seen this scrappiness as a plan to push the country forward. He clearly wanted to lead, literally to be a few steps, but not too many, ahead of his people, and cajole them to follow. In that September speech there was the faintest of hints that perhaps he realized he had walked too far ahead, and in the process became a man exposed. If their is a single theme to that speech it is the role of religion in public life and its underside of sectarianism. Confessing to be the "believer President", or the "Muslim President of a Muslim Egypt" did not close the arguments or silence the opposition. In fact, it opened fresh avenues of discord. Sadat may have realized he needed to address the issue directly. In his mind it was no longer possible to reason with these demons, but inevitable to confront them. He may have meant the speech as a public disquisition on religion and identity, instead it came out as a primal scream. In that the light Sadat's actions appear more tragic than desperate or ill-intentioned. It was the last act and testament of a man who loved his country, but in understanding the pain of its history, expected no love back.
What would Egypt have been like had the assassins failed, and Sadat survived and reconciled back with his country? We will never know. The current troubles of Egypt reflect the utter hollowness of its political class, made infantile by long decades of stagnation under Mubarak. Would that class have developed differently under an extended Sadat leadership? Egypt has a history of fascination with totalitarianism, seeing in it a possible cure for backwardness. Yet, it has never managed to pull off a truly totalitarian system, one that would either lurch the country forward or finally cure it of this unhealthy fascination, or preferably both (although Russia serves as a sobering reminder that such outcome is not always guaranteed). Sadat's death shortly after tossing the political class into prison allowed no satisfactory resolution, like a tragedy with a lost ending. The farce to this tragedy is that Mohamed Hassanein Heikal, thirty three years after his brief stint in jail, is said to be writing speeches for yet another president.

Dying for Their BeliefsPosted: September 28, 2014 Filed under: Egypt, Egyptian Politics, History 2 Comments
A photograph circulated on social media shows a group of Muslim Brotherhood leaders in prison laughing and displaying the Rab'a four-finger salute. The first temptation is to respect their willingness to uphold their beliefs in face of extreme coercion. But a deeper look into the faces in the photograph highlights the troubles in the Egyptian soul.
Every young Copt is indoctrinated into the virtues of "Martyrdom". The Church, probably the most Egyptian of institutions, calls itself the "Church of Martyrs", and dates its calendar from time of one of the worst bouts of repression. It is tempting to find an analogy in the Brotherhood narrative. But we need to look deeper, first by looking into the troubling concept of "Martyrdom". There were two kinds of Christians martyrs, broadly speaking. Those who were asked to renounce their faith, and were persecuted, tortured or killed for it. Then there were those who actively and defiantly professed their faith and challenged the authorities. The first group has to have our admiration. The second group is more troubling. There is an air of moral exhibitionism about such acts, and an underlying assumption of superiority and a desire to coerce others into the individual's belief. Our attitude toward such "martyrdom" must be very wary.
The now famous call of "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness" stands as one of the clearest moral declarations in history. The sequencing is very important. Sometimes we need to sacrifice our happiness to pursue liberty. Sometimes we need to sacrifice liberty to protect our lives. But our highest duty, individually, familially and socially is to preserve life. If a man is inclined to faith, he may phrase it as honoring God's gift. If such sequencing is kept at the center of our attention, then we can find a path in the thicket of the current Egyptian sad repression.
The Brotherhood members who defy authority, and as a result are jailed or killed for it, are indeed brave. We can offer empathy, but not approval. At the core of their actions is a belief that they are right, and that the rest of society must conform to their views. The Brotherhood ideology, from Al Banna, to Qutb, to today, displays a desire to radically alter the society. Theirs is a historic mission to make a "new man", one that conforms to their views of godliness. They have actively, and largely successfully, altered the social landscape to their views; making it narrower and more coercive. They were aided by the rest of society; which rarely values individuality, and strongly disapproves of those who forge a different path. This is Egypt's illness to cure, if progress is to be made.
We can respect the Brotherhood for its courage in standing up to society when it finally hit back. But we cannot list its members among admirable "martyrs". They have long assaulted the two virtues necessary for a free society; respect for individual rights and defense of diversity. The courage to stand up for one's beliefs does not lessen the odiousness of such beliefs. The willingness to throw lives away in pursuit of less personal liberty is not happiness.

Salama Moussa in JailPosted: July 4, 2014 Filed under: Egypt, Egyptian Politics 3 Comments
In July 1946, almost exactly 68 years ago, the authoritarian government of Isma'il Sidqi ordered the arrest of the Egyptian Intellectual Salama Moussa. Almost 60, he endured two weeks in the hospitality of an Egyptian jail with good cheer. What is remarkable about this episode is that by then he was well beyond his earlier advocacy of radical cures to backwardness, tweaking of Egyptian sensibilities and general attacks on the mendacity and stupidity of the ruling classes. He had in effect given up politics, handing over his newspaper to George Hunayn and Ramses Yunan, esthetes and Trotskyites of little political effect. For most of the 1940s he wrote for the Coptic publication Misr, an odd occupation for a man estranged from the Church and perennially critical of religious authorities. We don't know fully what moved the cranky Sidqi to order his arrest. But the circumstance can give clear evidence.
By the end of World War II the arc of Moussa's life was pretty clear. His earlier optimism about the possibility of developing Egypt as a normal country in the Western model had faded, replaced instead by a sense of gloom over the forces gathering toward a stormy future. The inflection point might have been the ugly election of 1938, which featured interference by the King, in the person of his henchman Sidqi, anti-Semitic and anti-Coptic riots, regular religious incitement by many politicians, as well as unseemly gloating by the rising Muslim Brotherhood that their time to govern is near at hand. Moussa spent a good deal of the 1940s agitating against the Brotherhood and against the looming fight in Palestine. He saw nothing less than a disaster in the ascendance of Arabism and Islamism. Many criticized his posts in Misr as unduly alarmist; but to read them today is to see prescience at work. This, probably more than anything else, had aroused the ire of Sidqi, and perhaps King Farouk. Farouk, still in his twenties, was aiming to exploit Islamism and Arabism to forestall any developments toward a constitutional monarchy that would leave him both honored and powerless. He coveted the title of "Caliph", which made him engage in unnatural discourses with the Brotherhood. He wanted leadership in the "Arab" world, leading to the formation of the Arab League; its fresh pulpits broadcasting self-defeating rhetoric of praise for the already dead Hitler and advocating an ill-prepared war against the Zionists. In a few years Farouk would depart Egypt in humiliation, neither the first nor the last man destroyed by the explosive devices he wished to employ for his narrow purposes. But in the meantime, the voices of men such as Moussa, weak and irrelevant in the dangerous currents of street politics, were a reminder of his lack of illegitimacy. Good sense would have advocated ignoring such men, but it was not the time for good sense. It can be said in praise of the Egypt of 70 years ago, is that it was milder and gentler toward critics.
But then, as now, the land was ruled by myths advocated as facts, shortcuts sold as solutions, and outlandish schemes whose failure would rebound to the advantage of those that proposed them because blame can always be placed elsewhere.

Insulting IslamPosted: June 16, 2014 Filed under: Copts, Egypt 1 Comment
In the space of one day, in Egypt, a Copt was convicted of insulting Islam on the word of her pre-pubescent students while another is referred to trial based on the flimsiest of social media hints. Hundreds of miles to the East a gang of psychopaths executed hundreds of men in cold blood for being the wrong kind of Muslims, while shouting the Muslim profession of faith in exalted pride. No one accused them of insulting Islam.

An Ugly SpectaclePosted: June 1, 2014 Filed under: Egypt, Egyptian Politics, History 1 Comment
A video emerged showing the head of the National Union of Women, Mervat El Tallawy, declaring her pride in the election and badgering the European Union Election Observer mission members into leaving a news conference, to the cheers of the crowd. Some can be heard to scream "Allahu Akbar". In a region drunk with religion, God's name is brought into all sorts of unhappy events, from wanton killings to a fit of poor manners. It was an ugly spectacle. It was particularly chilling to see Ms Tallawy, an otherwise decent woman and stalwart supporter of women's rights, always under assault in Egypt, descend into this display with seeming ease. Egypt has been enacting an endless variety of Noah's nakedness for the past few years. But we need not avert our eyes.
This spectacle would be less alarming if it were not for the daily staple of conspiracy theories and lunatic speculations common on Egyptian media. The underlying illness is an identity crisis, with various factions insisting that the country adopt but a single identity rather than coming to an acceptance of the diversity of Egypt and building a tolerant system that can turn this diversity into an advantage. The air is rife with calls for eradication, praise of illiberal democracy, strong men, and national and religious takfir. This cannot end well.
The mindset that gives rise to such behavior is profoundly damaging to Egypt. There is the coarsening of the national discourse and the associated inability to view and solve the country's massive problems in a level headed manner. The resulting xenophobia is of little help to a country unable to foot its bills and eager for return of tourism and foreign investments. The hysteria makes it even harder for friends of Egypt to lend assistance in any meaningful way. Foreign reporters are badgered on a daily basis on social media and in forums for "conspiring against Egypt". Such accusations do little to change the tone of reporting, and actually make it harder to call out much of the sloppy reporting of Egyptian reality. If there are foreign nations conspiring against Egypt for their gain, and probably there are, the constant crying of wolf actually gives them cover. Think tanks and policy makers outside Egypt sometimes display blinkered views, but it is hard to bring any clarity amid this din. This entire pattern of behavior does little to inconvenience its targets, and much to disrupt positive developments in Egypt.
Tallawy's outburst is not only an ugly spectacle and a disgraceful display of poor manners. It is a grim omen for Egypt.

Egypt And The Return Of The Old Time ReligionPosted: May 24, 2014 Filed under: Copts, Egypt, Egyptian Politics, History, Religion, Sisi Leave a comment
Posters featuring former Defense Minister and current Presidential candidate Abdel Fattah El Sisi and both Coptic Pope Tawadros II and Sheikh Ahmad El Tayyeb of Al Azhar are not uncommon in Egypt, offered both in praise and in condemnation. In praise, they attempt to burnish the legitimacy of Sisi as a man uniting all of Egypt and bridging the religious divide. In condemnation, they insist that the removal of President Morsi was a conspiracy between these unsavory actors. Such is the current polarization of Egypt that the same image can play both ways. In the wake of the removal of Morsi and the massive crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood, the role of religion in public life, always a combustible issue in modern Egyptian history, is very much at the front of the agenda of any leader.
I have argued previously that should Sisi assume the office of President he will face an array of problems that require innovative and effective solutions. The choice is stark: continue the regime established by Nasser in 1954 and face failure or attempt to alter it, at least as a transitional figure. The role of religion is one area where an exception can be made. Sisi has already made it clear that he disapproves of the Muslim Brotherhood view of religion in public life and made uncompromising statements insisting that they have no place in the political arena as an organization. The Brotherhood sees the state as the handmaiden for promoting religion; the vision that Sisi outlined turned that on its head, seeing religion as a tool for promoting the state and national unity. As a result, Sisi will have few choices but to echo the policies adopted by Nasser toward the role of religion in public life, or even earlier policies dating back to the beginning of the 20th century. These policies cannot be described as "secular", but rather as state control of the religious message. He recalled his childhood growing up cheek-to-jowl with a synagogue and listening to Church bells as reflecting the "true" Egypt, a country of pious and religious people of peaceable nature. In that myth religion is a static feature of life reflecting the character of the people and serving as a foundation for the state. These misty ideals must be translated into policy, which will likely mean closer embrace of established religious institutions, such as Al Azhar and the Coptic Orthodox Church, as well as a greater role for them in public life.
On the eve of the 1952 coup Al Azhar was active in supporting King Farouk's efforts to claim the title of "Caliph". Nasser, having deposed Farouk, had no choice but to attempt a major alteration of Al Azhar. He placed it under effective state control and expanded its purely religious role to include a variety of university-level educational programs. After Nasser's death Al Azhar continued to expand. Today some estimates claim that as much as 25% of secondary and 10% of post-secondary non-trade students attend Al Azhar schools, run independently from the Education ministry. If Sisi is to achieve his desired goal of creating an alternative to political Islam, he will have to pay close attention to the massive Al Azhar institution, perhaps assuming even greater control than Nasser attempted. Rather than make the public sphere less religious, the state will likely attempt a nationalistic channeling of the message.
Sisi, in friendly gestures to Tawadros II, also seems to be well on the way to emulating Nasser's close relationship with Pope Kyrillous VI. Kyrillous was invested in 1958 as a compromise transitional figure between the old guard of the Coptic Orthodox Church and the fiery young reformers, the group of well-educated monks from the Middle Classes, known as the "Sunday Schoolers". The friendship they formed for the remainder of their lives (Kyrillous passed away a few months after Nasser) was important for both men. The Pope managed to ease the restrictions on the building of Churches, including a grand new Cathedral at Abbasyia, inaugurated in 1968 with Nasser as the guest of honor. Nasser burnished his image as a leader of all the people, including the significant Arab Christian minorities in the Levant, who repaid him with adulation. Ironically, that era also marked a serious weakening of the liberal Coptic elite and strengthening of the role of the Church as the sole spokesman for the community. The feuds between the clergy and laity from the 1930s to the 1950s were ended by the wisdom of Kyrillous as well as heavy hand of Nasser, who marginalized much of the pro-democracy liberal Coptic elite.
The vision Sisi is propagating is fundamentally different from the Brotherhood's vision of religion, making it difficult to see how any political reconciliation is possible. The upcoming state, should Sisi hold onto power, will not be less religious for the removal of the Brotherhood; just differently so and probably equally intolerant of religious dissent or attempts at fundamental religious reform. This is neither the secularism of the French variety nor a free market of religious ideas in the Anglo-Saxon model. It can best be described as "statist religion".
It remains an open question whether such a re-orientation will create a viable alternative to political Islam or whether it will alleviate Egypt's century long struggle with the place of religion within the national identity. At the moment, however, a majority of Egyptians seem to be in tune with an American revivalist ditty: "Gimme that ol' time religion, 'tis good enough for me".

Alright, my peppermint angels. American Horror Story is back with its latest installment, Freak Show. And all I have to say is: What the effing eff?!
Upon hearing that the fourth season of FX's lurid American Horror Story franchise was subtitled Freak Show, you can be forgiven if your first reaction was "Redundant much?" Few series are freakier by their very nature than Ryan Murphy's annual anthology of grotesque Grand Guignol. Freak Show (Wednesday, 10/9c) upholds the grisly tradition, although the empathy shown for this year's bizarre family of sideshow outcasts makes this edition of AHS initially less ridiculous than usual (especially when compared to the ludicrous hot mess of last year's Coven).
A powerful yet restrained psychological thriller, MARTHA, MARCY MAY, MARLENE tells the story of a young woman rapidly unraveling amidst her attempt to reclaim a normal life. Escaping a harrowing experience as a cult member in rural New York, Martha (newcomer Elizabeth Olsen) seeks help from her estranged older sister Lucy (Sarah Paulson), though she is unable and unwilling to reveal the truth about her disappearance. With a mounting sense of dread, Lucy comes to realize that her sister's bizarre behavior may point to something much graver than an idiosyncratic personality.
Lost in a post-traumatic torment, Martha's memories trigger the chilling paranoia that her former cult is actively pursuing her. As her reality blurs with delusion, we realize that Martha (cult aliases Marcy May and Marlene) is lost in the eye of an emotional storm much larger than anyone could have suspected.
12 YEARS A SLAVE is based on an incredible true story of one man's fight for survival and freedom. In the pre-Civil War United States, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery. Facing cruelty (personified by a malevolent slave owner, portrayed by Michael Fassbender), as well as unexpected kindnesses, Solomon struggles not only to stay alive, but to retain his dignity. In the twelfth year of his unforgettable odyssey, Solomon's chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad Pitt) will forever alter his life.

For American Horror Story: Freak Show star Kathy Bates, getting to explore the creepy world of the show is a dream come true.
"I remember going to the fair when I was a kid, and I always wanted to go into freak show [but] my parents would never let me," she says in the video below. "So it was this mysterious place I never saw when I was growing up."

When Great Souls Die: MADRE Gives Tribute to Nelson Mandela
Posted on: Thursday, December 5, 2013
When great souls die,
the air around us becomes
light, rare, sterile.
We breathe, briefly.
Our eyes, briefly,
see with
a hurtful clarity.
- Maya Angelou
A great soul has died. Nelson Mandela – a leader of the anti-apartheid liberation struggle, prisoner of conscience for 27 years, South Africa's first democratically-elected president, a beacon of hope for justice and equality worldwide – has died. And with his passing, his family, South Africa and the world have suffered an immeasurable loss.
In his years of struggle, he kept his gaze unblinkingly turned to a vision of democracy and freedom. As a young man, he joined the African National Congress (ANC) and helped organize boycotts and strikes to confront apartheid. For speaking out against segregation and oppression, he was arrested and jailed repeatedly.
He fostered ties with revolutionaries and activists worldwide, learning from struggles against racism and imperialism and shining a spotlight on the brutal realities of apartheid. In 1964, the regime sentenced him to life in prison, and he spent decades behind bars. As the anti-apartheid movement blossomed, nationally and globally, it amplified a central rallying cry: "Free Mandela!"
Yet, for decades, many powerful world leaders turned a blind eye, and often embraced the vicious and criminal regime of apartheid. In the 1980s, US President Ronald Reagan advanced a morally bankrupt policy of "constructive engagement" with the apartheid government, meanwhile rejecting the ANC as pro-communist. The US officially labeled the ANC and Mandela as "terrorists," a label that was not removed until 2008.
Through it all, Mandela's unshakeable leadership gave courage and strength to countless activists for racial equality. The pressure they generated helped to finally collapse the apartheid government and to bring about Mandela's release in 1990. His steady guidance shepherded South Africa's transition to democracy, through those first elections in 1994 and through his presidency.
It is hard to think about a world after Mandela. We struggle to imagine a figure who could replace him, who could inspire so many to see a path forward towards justice and to take those first steps.
We are inspired by what he has left us. His words and his actions are his legacy. Our greatest tribute to him will be in continuing the work he left unfinished—to achieve true racial equality and democracy.
And when great souls die,
after a period peace blooms,
slowly and always
irregularly. Spaces fill
with a kind of
soothing electric vibration.
Our senses, restored, never
to be the same, whisper to us.
They existed. They existed.
We can be. Be and be
better. For they existed.
- Maya Angelou

Little Samuel is only 5 months old, but the baby rumors are already swirling around Jennifer Garner and hubby Ben Affleck. And Garner actually confirmed some of the rumors in a recent interview with Extra — Affleck does want more kids! Garner, however, may take some persuading, calling that an "uphill battle." Of the family's newly expanded trio of children — Samuel looks up to big sisters Seraphina (3.5) and Violet (6.5) — Garner said, "I really did not realize how much more work three was going to be than two."
From the animated Highlands of Pixar's Brave to the Prohibition-era Atlantic City of HBO's Boardwalk Empire, actress Kelly Macdonald has no trouble adjusting to her surroundings. Good thing, too, because that flexibility will surely come in handy when she has two children underfoot! Macdonald recently shared that she and husband Dougie Payne (bassist for the band Travis) are expecting their second baby in December. The two are already parents to 4-year-old Freddie. No word yet on whether baby #2 will be a son or a daughter!
Nothing like having a new baby in the house to make time move a little bit differently! Bill Hader, Saturday Night Live star as well as Men in Black 3 actor, and his wife Maggie Carey welcomed their second baby late last month. Daughter Harper was born on July 28th. Hader and Maggie are also parents to 2-year-old Hannah Katheryn.
It's a boy for Jerseylicious star Christy Pereira! The reality TV star and her husband Danny welcomed their second baby, son Rocco Joseph, on Tuesday, according to Life & Style. Baby boy is the second baby for the couple, who are also parents to 2-year-old daughter Danielle.
Three (strikes) may be an unlucky number in softball, but the number is looking mighty fine to former softball star Jennie Finch. The athlete and her husband Casey Daigle are expecting their third baby in January! Finch and Daigle are already parents to two sons: 6-year-old Ace Shane and 13-month-old Diesel Dean. The couple haven't shared yet whether baby to be will be another son or a daughter.
Starship Troopers star Jake Busey may be metaphorically circling the moon these days! According to Life & Style Weekly, the actor and his fiance April Hutchinson welcomed a daughter on July 30th. Autumn Rosalia Busey — who weighed 8 pounds, 12 ounces upon arrival — is a brunette, just like her mom, Busey says. "We're overjoyed and feel blessed to have this baby girl come into our life."
Unforgettable alumna Daya Vaidya has welcomed a few new men to her life! The actress and her husband Don Wallace welcomed identical twin sons on July 25th. Vaidya confirmed the happy news to People, saying she was fortunate to be able to deliver her boys naturally and without medication, as she'd planned. Jai Blue Wallace arrived first, weighing 5 pounds, 8 ounces, and was followed about 4 minutes later by younger brother Dev Eshaan Wallace, who weighed 5 pounds, 3 ounces. Vaidya told People that 3-year-old Leela Grace is already loving life as a big sister!
It's been a big year for Mike Eli! The singer for the Eli Young band and his band mates have been nominated for several awards, and even took home the award for Song of the Year-Artist from the Academy of Country Music Awards earlier this year. But those awards have all been topped now — by 6-pound, 15-inch baby girl Kline Olivia Diaz. Daughter Kline is the first baby for Young and his wife Kacey.
Boy, oh boy, the news is good for Elizabeth Berkley! The actress (whose credits include CSI: Miami and The L Word) and her husband Greg Lauren have made this a summer to remember by welcoming their first baby! Son Sky Cole Lauren was born July 20th and weighed 8 pounds. Berkley helped spread the good news by taking to Twitter, sharing, "I am moved to share the birth of our new baby boy Sky Cole Lauren. Thank u for your beautiful wishes and blessings. We r grateful!"
Of the TV variety, maybe, but no real babies are in the future for Kevin Jonas and his wife Danielle just yet! The couple, who's show Married to Jonas will debut next month, have shared with People that they are starting to feel the baby pressure, but they also didn't give any hint that the pressure may be having an effect. The show is supposed to, in part, document Kevin recording new music with his brothers Joe and Nick, so it sounds as if life will be plenty busy enough without baby just yet!

Welcome back to the Short Fiction Spotlight, a weekly column dedicated to doing exactly what it says in the header: shining a light on the some of the best and most relevant fiction of the aforementioned form.
Once upon a time, magazines of short speculative fiction were as prevalent and accessible as newspapers, but the periodicals of the past have been dying a slow death for decades. Don't give up hope, though, for there are those who still believe such publications have a place.
Amongst their noble number, we have Hugo Award-winner Lynne M. Thomas and Hugo Award nominee Michael Damian Thomas, who last week launched the first issue of Uncanny, a brand new bi-monthly "that has the feel of a contemporary magazine with a history—one that evolved from a fantastic pulp. Uncanny will bring the excitement and possibilities of the past, and the sensibilities and experimentation that the best of the present offers."

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
April 29, 2013
The Bulls will be without point guard Kirk Hinrich on Monday night against Brooklyn because of a bruised left calf. His absence might give Game 4 star Nate Robinson a chance to start in the potential clincher for Chicago.
Hinrich was hurt during Saturday's 142-134 triple-overtime victory, playing through the injury to finish with 18 points and a playoff career-high 14 assists in 60 minutes.
But he was wearing a walking boot Monday, walking with a
noticeable limp.
Robinson rallied the Bulls from a 14-point deficit late in the fourth quarter, scoring 29 of his 34 points after the third quarter as Chicago took a 3-1 lead in the series.

How Do You Rate?
In the field of statistics, a five-point rating scale is commonly used to evaluate all sorts of personal responses, feelings, and assessments. This frequently used tool is known as the Likert scal ...View Article
Chiropractic adjustments are a safe, non-invasive and effective alternative to prescription painkillers and surgery. While medication can provide temporary pain relief, once these drugs wear off, pain will return. With adjustments, our Plano chiropractic team addresses the underlying cause for your pain. Rather than masking the symptoms of pain with medication, chiropractic adjustments directly address the underlying mechanical misalignment that is causing your pain. Thanks to natural adjustments, our chiropractors have helped hundreds of patients manage pain and lead active lives. We can help you, too!
Our treatment encompasses three phases of care: relief care, corrective care and wellness care. Our first phase, relief care, targets the underlying cause for your pain to provide immediate relief. We begin treatment with a diagnostic exam to precisely diagnose the cause for your pain. Our advanced diagnostic tools, including digital radiography, help our chiropractor pinpoint the cause for your pain. Next, we will design a custom treatment plan that addresses your unique pain management needs and supports the recovery process. We recognize that every patient is different, and our goal is to help patients heal as quickly and safely as possible.
In addition to Plano chiropractic care, our chiropractor may also recommend spinal decompression therapy. For example, if you are suffering from back pain due to a herniated disc or neck pain from a whiplash injury, your spine may be compressed. This compression may be placing pressure on nearby nerves, which in turn is triggering your pain. Spinal decompression therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that helps to decompress the spine, restoring proper alignment to the body and supporting whole body health.
Our wellness care focuses on improving whole body health from the inside out. Regular adjustments maintain spinal integrity, which reduces the risk for future injuries, pain and health problems. Our goal is to help every patient live a full and active life. We believe this is best achieved through a combination of chiropractic adjustments and wellness services, such as our ALCAT allergy testing.
If you are new to the area and need a chiropractor in Plano, TX or have never visited our practice, Dr. Stanton is happy to answer any questions you may have about our treatments and approach to drug-free pain relief.
If you are suffering from neck pain, back pain or a chronic injury, there is hope. Contact us today at 972-378-5900 to schedule your diagnostic appointment!

Client Testimonial
After a severe auto accident, I spent years with chronic neck and shoulder pain, which eventually radiated down my right arm. I couldn't believe what just a few chiropractic adjustments could do. I now have normal movement in my neck and shoulder and feel better than I have in years. I wish I had known to come to Twisted Spine & Joint Center earlier! Thank you!
