Should Black Teen Boys Be Allowed to Wear Hoodies? – Mayor of Topeka and Geraldo Rivera Ask, in Light of Trayvon Martin

We've all been there before. Stuck alone in a store, getting some late night snacks or medicine for the baby at the local drug store or gas station. You're standing there not much alert, when suddenly a group of young black men with hoodies walk in.
Your heart races and you're terrified! There can be nothing but gangster menace and rap beating hooliganism hiding under those hoodies. If they were not guilty already, why would they be covering up their heads from the security cameras!
If they did not want to rob my purse and then throw me down to do terrible things, why would they be in such a large, scary group with face hidden clothing?
I can think of nothing more scary and terrifying than a black teen boy wearing a hoodie and many of you feel the same way. That's absolutely fine.
I'm not racist, I'm just extremely terrified of black teenager people in hoodies. Many good people feel the same way too.
Take our good friend Mayor Bill Bunten in Topeka. This is the man whose city finally decriminalized domestic violence and gave tattle-tale wives nowhere to turn but God and their husband's discipline.
Bunten introduced a potential law that would prevent young teen blacks from wearing hoodies in stores or any other place of business.
But is that good enough? With the new tragic case of misunderstanding that surrounds the young man Trayvon Martin, we must consider if all black teens should be blocked from wearing hoodies.
In addition to keeping them safer from us mistaking a good one from one of the many scary black rappers, car stealers and sex-crazed crack nosed maniacs who just take what they want, it will give good people like you and me from having to be scared and wonder if the next black teen in a hoodie will be our demise.
Fox News journalist Geraldo Rivera is addressing this very point today and I can only hope that when Mitt Romney is elected president in 2012, he can work with our GOP Congress to get the law passed.
I dream of a day when black teens earn the right to wear hoodies, just like white men have been wearing non-scary hoods over their faces for years. But until we reach that point in time, for the sake of society black teens must sacrifice and stop wearing these terrifying hoodies.

I wore a hoodie out today. I didn't buy any skittles or iced tea. Most ladies have a clitoral hoodie, but it doesn't mean we want to buy skittles. Sometimes we just want Hershey kisses.

When I see Blacks wearing ghetto clothing like hoodies and baggy pants, I run for my life. Trayvon was asking for it because he was dressing like a thug, and I'm honestly not surprised that a brave, community-minded citizen took action to prevent global harm that could've erupted from Trayvon's suspicious skittles or ice tea.

Travyon wasn't asking it! He was an innocent kid who was shot by some heartless bastard!
He wasnt a "brave, community-minded citizen" he's a killer!
"prevent global harm that could've erupted from Trayvon's suspicious skittles or ice tea."
What harm?! Nothing could've been taken to cause harm! He was a kid who bought skittles and ice tea, why? Because he wanted to eat some skittles and dink some tea. Nothing wrong about it.

I suppose you also have the attitude that because someone wears any other uniform that doesn't make them a police officer or a soldier
These ghetto pond life wear a uniform – they even refer to themselves as the blackspeak bastardisation "soulja" so yes, when they wear the uniform then they identify with their criminal, drug-riddled cult. Because cult is what it is, they call it culture, but they want to remove culture and leave anarchy in place.
If they didn't have these aims, they wouldn't wear the uniform. Blacks wearing hoodies should be arrested without question, then our streets might be safe for decent, God-fearing people to walk at night.

They would soon learn to respect the law and show their faces – any of the few actual innocents (early in their careers when they just ape their criminal idols in dress, before they go on to rape, steal and murder) would soon stop following their idols.

There is plenty wrong with that. Why on Earth did he have to wear that hoodie? Were there other gangs in the area that wore certain colors and hoodies? Maybe Zimmerman mistook him for a gang member that the Neighborhood Watch Program had on their most wanted and he was known to be armed and dangerous. It may have been a case of mistaken identity, marred because he was wearing the criminal's uniform and Zimmerman could not clearly see his face.

"There is plenty wrong with that. Why on Earth did he have to wear that hoodie?"
Raining, cold, quite a number of reasons. Why would you ever wear a jacket?
"Were there other gangs in the area that wore certain colors and hoodies? Maybe Zimmerman mistook him for a gang member that the Neighborhood Watch Program had on their most wanted and he was known to be armed and dangerous."
That's one hell of a leap of a conclusion, especially when he still disobeyed the 911 operator. Doesn't matter if Martin was apart of a gang or not when Zimmerman called 911 and didn't follow the instructions of the operator since he decided to stalk Martin and then attack him without provocation. There's also the fact that if Martin was apart of a gang, odds are that there'd be a weapon on him and more people with him who have weapons themselves. But what was found? A dead black kid with candy and a drink and a racially profiling racist murderer with a gun in his hand that belonged to Zimmerman and was shot by Zimmerman.
"It may have been a case of mistaken identity, marred because he was wearing the criminal's uniform and Zimmerman could not clearly see his face."
So 'vigilante justice' taken out on random black people is completely acceptable to you? Zimmerman called 911, was told to not follow Martin, and then leapt out and attacked him.

And I may as well say this, no matter if you believe in evolution or creation, or a mix of both, we are all decended from Africans so when you think about it, we're all African American. Plus, the only truely white people are dead people, or Seattle-ites. Most people are pink or tanned in colour.

So, let me get this straight. If a white man wears a cone shaped hoodie and walks around at night, it's okay to call him a racist and profile him as a Civil Rights antagonist.
But if a black guy is wearing an all black or scarier red or blue hoodie, walking around with his baggy pants and listening to rap music, we're supposed to act like that's not scary. Especially at night?
You liberals are the worst with your reverse racism and double standards. I can't even say any more on this issue. Everyone is jumping down Zimmerman's throat without letting him have a fair shake and explain his side. What if he was scared and had to defend himself?
Praise or Condemn: 2 0
You should have a reason to fear someone, not just for how they dress and their race. Black people had reason to fear people wearing a white sheet with eyes and a cone head. That was the way to identify the KKK and they normally brought death, turmoil, and destruction in their wake. Hoodies and baggy pants are comfortable and leave no reason for someone to fear the person wearing them
Praise or Condemn: 2 0
No, they do not. Just like black people still give white people a hard time for having a shaved head or wearing a cone shaped hat, it's their turn to realize they are scary and action has to be taken if they don't stop scaring us. What right do black people have to wear hoodies, when that outfit identifies them as a gangster?
It's just like if a woman is wearing a short skirt and looking hookerish, she needs to recognize she's wearing a hooker's uniform. The comedian David Chappelle expands on this concept, so you cannot call me racist.

Black people aren't scary though! Honestly, 40-year-old men scare me more than a teenage African American male. A hoodie is not "thuggish". It is a comfortable article of clothing worn by almost all teenagers, no matter what their race or "occupation", and even by young children and adults.
An African American has every right to dress the same as a white person. We're all created equal and it doesn't matter what the law says in the South. To God, we're all hischildren and if some are given special treatment, the others feel wronged. And the Constitution stares that, "All men are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain, unalienable, rights."

One is clothing typically associated with people who specifically hate black people, the other is clothing typically associated with people who want to keep warm or keep rain off of them. The fact that you're scared when a black person is wearing a hoodie and not a white person shows that you're racist.
"You liberals are the worst with your reverse racism and double standards."
Admittedly there are faults with the views of racism, yet you're flat-out racist while claiming you aren't, and are quite bad with your own double standards.
"I can't even say any more on this issue. Everyone is jumping down Zimmerman's throat without letting him have a fair shake and explain his side. What if he was scared and had to defend himself?"
He stalked a kid who had Skittles and an iced tea walking home, was nowhere near Zimmerman until Zimmerman himself walked up to him, disobeyed the operator when calling 911, and there's even a recording of Zimmerman calling him a 'fucking coon'. The kid had no weapon on him, and Zimmerman was the one with the gun and a bullet went into Martin. There's no need for him to explain himself, the evidence is quite clear. Why and how would he have to defend himself from someone who was quite clearly away from him without any weapon on his person? Zimmerman was the one who clearly started shit, and if anything, Martin was trying to defend himself.

How on Earth do you even sleep at night. You are such a hypocrite! So, if I put on a cone shaped hoodie and go out at night, you're giving blacks a carte blanc to say I'm a klansman? But people who have the life experience of blacks wearing hoodies being in gangs, if they say 'if he's in a hoodie, he's probably in a gang' they are racist for thinking that?
You are being closeminded and not considering everyone's world view. There are areas of the country where blacks wear hoodies because they are in gangs. Just like if you plucked a black man from 1957 and put him 20 yards away from a group of white people gathered in white hoodies, his heart would race, he would feel his life with threatened and he would probably run away. This day and age, it's certain neighborhoods being targetted by black teen boys in hoodies. There is a legal precedent to defend yourself if you feel your life is in danger in Florida. It's plausible that's what happened here. So, the logical solution is just to be patient and wait for this to come to trial, and in the meantime, just make it illegal for black teens and to be safe, all black men in that area of Florida to wear hoodies. I guarantee you, one of them being shot down for wearing a hoodie would not happen, because they won't be wearing them! How hard is that to understand.
Even better, cops can arrest anyone violating that rule and therefore, again protect them from being shot in an act of Civilian justice.

You're still trying to equate hoodies with KKK outfits. You fail in that regard because hoodies can be worn by anyone and were not created, nor are they created for the purpose of 'gang clothing', while the KKK cone head outfits were created and are worn specifically to conceal the identities of people who wanted to commit hate crimes against black people.

They are used for gang clothing. A red shirt with red pants, or a blue shirt with blue pants, were not designed to be gang clothing. But guess what: they are. Law enforcement uses those clothing combinations to easily identify and profile potential gang members in trouble spots. If Trayvon was wearing an outfit that is used to distinguish potential gang members, he may have been unfortunately targetted. It's not a matter of race or hate crimes, it's just a matter of common sense. You don't wear those items of clothing if you don't want to be identified as such in certain neighborhoods. Let me ask you something, LN. Would you ever dare wear an all red outfit and walk down a street in South Central Los Angeles?

"They are used for gang clothing. A red shirt with red pants, or a blue shirt with blue pants, were not designed to be gang clothing. But guess what: they are."
A style adopted by gang members, not made specifically for them. Still a big difference between a hoodie and a Klan outfit.
"Law enforcement uses those clothing combinations to easily identify and profile potential gang members in trouble spots."
For the purposes of observing, maybe, but what officer in his or her right mind would see a black person in a hoodie and decide that they're instantly a danger and should be killed?
"If Trayvon was wearing an outfit that is used to distinguish potential gang members, he may have been unfortunately targetted. It's not a matter of race or hate crimes, it's just a matter of common sense."
Again, for the purposes of observing, maybe, but there's a difference between following someone or keeping an eye on them to make sure they aren't up to something, and actively stalking them with the intent to kill, which was exactly what Zimmerman did. He went up and instigated the situation and shot Martin on a mere SUSPICION. You're trying to excuse a murder by saying that Martin was guilty of being SUSPICIOUS. You can say Martin was suspicious looking all you want, that doesn't take away the fact that Zimmerman stalked him, disobeyed the operator, and then engaged Martin on his own.
"You don't wear those items of clothing if you don't want to be identified as such in certain neighborhoods. Let me ask you something, LN. Would you ever dare wear an all red outfit and walk down a street in South Central Los Angeles?"
Probably not, but you're seriously stretching comparisons. Wearing all red is COMMONLY, not ALWAYS associated with gangs, and the same goes with hoodies. You're trying to stretch the point that Martin may or may not have been in a gang and using that to justify his murder, even though that there's no real evidence outside of ONE article of clothing and PLENTY of evidence that it was flat-out murder, and even a piece of evidence that it was racially motivated.

It is not illegal to disobey the operator. You cannot just make up laws as you want, LN. Now Mr. Zimmerman could still protect his life if he was threatened. That's how the law works in Florida. Why are you so quick to violate Mr. Zimmerman's right to be innocent until proven guilty?
Praise or Condemn: 0 1
"It is not illegal to disobey the operator."
Illegal? No. A very bad idea, especially when you are informed that police are on their way and you're told to stay away from the 'suspect'? Oh so very much.
"You cannot just make up laws as you want, LN."
You seem to think you can on other subjects, I'm just saying that Zimmerman was told by an operator, who had already dispatched officers to meet up with him, to NOT follow Martin was a mistake that resulted in him committing murder.
"Now Mr. Zimmerman could still protect his life if he was threatened. That's how the law works in Florida."
Again, running up to someone who you SUSPECT of a crime, not even knowing what crime in particular, and gunning them down when they're completely unarmed after stalking them is NOT self-defense.
"Why are you so quick to violate Mr. Zimmerman's right to be innocent until proven guilty?"
Because we're clearly past that point; he is indeed guilty thanks to the mountain of evidence against him: disobeying an operator and followed Martin back to his house, using a racial slur when talking about him while on the phone, Martin being clearly unarmed, and Zimmerman running up to him with a gun. You can't claim self-defense when YOU are the one who instigates a situation!

Do you know the circumstances here? You're still trying to claim that a phone operator has some legal authority. With this law, you can defend yourself.

Put yourself in his shoes.

"Do you know the circumstances here? You're still trying to claim that a phone operator has some legal authority."
Uh, no, no I'm not. You're the one that's thinking that, trying to defend a racist man who committed a hate crime. I'm saying that by not listening to a phone operator and taking the situation into his own hands, he showed that he doesn't actually care about the law since he was told to specifically leave Martin alone. That is EVIDENCE against him.
"With this law, you can defend yourself."
Again, stalking and killing someone who had candy and a drink is NOT defending yourself.
"There is room for citizen defense in Florida law, or else Zimmerman would already be arrested."
Or maybe because Florida's law enforcement is corrupt as all fuck and has allowed quite a number of hate crimes to go completely scot-free.
"So maybe before you try to violate the spirit of the American legal system, you should give him a break. Put yourself in his shoes."
Oh yeah, I should TOTALLY give a guy who FUCKING STALKED AND MURDERED SOMEONE WITHOUT PROVOCATION a break!

LN, why are you calling Zimmerman a racist? You are trying to paint him as a bad person and are attacking his personal character. You are being a social court bully. Let's give him a fair chance. From what I've heard, he's given to the black community and is not a racist.

"LN, why are you calling Zimmerman a racist?"
Did you NOT catch the part where Zimmerman calls Martin a 'fucking coon'?
"You are trying to paint him as a bad person and are attacking his personal character."
Because his personal character motivated him to murder an innocent youth.
"You are being a social court bully. Let's give him a fair chance."
A fair chance? What, and observe the evidence that proves his innocence? Well then, let's take a look at it:
Claims of self-defense (a grown man with a weapon claims self-defense when going up against a young man without a weapon after he, Zimmerman, was stalking the young man)
Well, that's about it, actually, and that bit was dis-proven quite some time ago.
"From what I've heard, he's given to the black community and is not a racist."
Oh? Proof that he's given to the black community would be real nice, especially when he uses racial slurs towards black people.
"Is it inconceivable to you that he was scared or being attacked?"
Yes, it is, considering how he decided to STALK MARTIN ON HIS OWN. He instigated the attacks and you're completely over looking that fact in favor of your own innate racism wanting to cover for another racist.

Why do 40 year old men scare you? What about 40 year old black men with hoodies and baggy pants and scarred faces?
Praise or Condemn: 1 1
I easily could have been raped over the summer, had I been a little slower and had my mum not happened to drive up and pick me up.
Someone with a scarred face does not scare me. In fact, I immediately think of the military and wonder if he fought for America. Comfy clothes mean nothing. And honestly, African American men who are older are typically much kinder to me than many older white men.
I wasn't raised in a racist part of the country. I was raised to give everyone a chance and that they're innocent until proven guilty. My faith is the reason I try to look at everyone as a person. Not by their race or gender, but who they are. I try to see what God does, knowing that I glimpes only a small portion of who they are.

That seems a bit naive, its well-known that teenagers are much more dangerous than middle-aged people, just look at the crime statistics. Most people mellow out by the time they get older, if they don't they end up dead or in prison.

In my town, I don't have to worry if I see a group of black kids while walking to the store. I'll smile, say "hi" and go on my way. Sometimes they'll converse with me but most of the time not. I don't mind.
There may be more statistics for teen crime, but that is because teens are targeted by the police. At my school, we aren't allowed to leave campus in groups larger than four because it makes us suspcious. However, it doesn't matter if it's a small group of teens hanging out at a local park or a larger group wandering around town, we are targeted by the police. They are intent on proving us guilty while letting adults who are commiting crimes do what they please. I was told, by a police officer, that my mum can do whatever she pleases to me as long as it did not leave a permanent mark on my body. The police IGNORE adult crimes and focus their attention on the younger generation

"scarred faces?"
Wait, what's wrong with scarred faces?
Praise or Condemn: 0 0
"Wait, what's wrong with scarred faces?"
That's a rather strange question. Obviously what's wrong with them is that they are disfigured. People generally have negative reactions to scarred faces, whether the scarred person is a thug or the unfortunate victim of an accident or attack.

I don't know what you are talking about. scars make people look badass.

If someone has negative reaction to scars, it just means they're assuming something bad about the person.

Not really contradictory, I find scars badass, most people find them negative. I am not one of the people who haS negative reactions to scars

"I find scars badass, most people find them negative."
Badass is negative. Are you on drugs or something?
Praise or Condemn: 1 1
Badass is a compliment. It pretty much means the same as "cool" I'm not being negative about it.

"Badass is a compliment. It pretty much means the same as "cool" I'm not being negative about it."
Why don't you tell the next person you meet who has a scar on their face that it looks really "badass" and see how much of a compliment they take it as? You're out of your mind.
Praise or Condemn: 1 1
I could just look in a mirror and tell myself I'm badass
Also, I'm not going to go up to some random person and call them a badass, it's not a compliment you use on just anyone.

I can't believe there are people so fucking retarded.
you don't shoot an unarmed person in "self defense" that's escalated right into entity removal.
he couldn't pistol whip him? in self defense it serves the same purpose as a gunshot without casualty. hell there's only a few lethal places to shoot someone once: it's possible to survive getting peppered by an SMG. it's clear the "neighborhood watchman" had the full intention of murdering the boy.
Praise or Condemn: 0 0
No one is saying he deserved to die, just that if he wasn't wearing a hoodie maybe all of this would have been avoided. People are going to profile, so why should these kids be in harm's way by insisting on wearing a piece of clothing? Just make it illegal for black kids to wear hoodies and this all goes away. Why make it harder than it needs to be?
Praise or Condemn: 0 1
Maybe it's not the hoodies that is the problem. Maybe it's the stupid people that are profiling them based on what they are wearing.
Praise or Condemn: 1 1
No, I'm fine and a productive member of society. It's the people in hoodies who dont' work and wander the street, looking for trouble who are the problem. They are the ones who get free healthcare, free food, are shooting up prison costs when we have to arrest them, selling/doing drugs, creating welfare babies and all the like.

You're seriously trying to make him out to be even partially in a gang just because of his clothing and trying to excuse a murderer for using that logic. Never mind that he didn't bring up that he thought it was a gang member, never mind that he disobeyed the operator on the phone and stalked and engaged martin, never mind that he even called him a 'fucking coon' on the phone. Nope, he just confused him for a potential gang member just based on ONE PIECE OF CLOTHING. Are you SERIOUSLY trying to say that THAT is why Zimmerman stalked and killed Martin?
Praise or Condemn: 0 0
There was gang activity in the area. That's why Mr. Zimmerman was in the neighborhood watch program. Someone came in looking like Mr. Baggypants Hoodie, he felt scared and the laaw gives him permission to react.
Praise or Condemn: 0 0
The law doesn't give him permission to stalk and kill someone. You seem to be under the impression that Martin went up to Zimmerman; it was the other way around.

Allright, so all you assholes who are close minded, here is why you are scared of black people wearing hoodies. It is because you are ignorant. How many of you have actually taken the time to form a positive relation with a black person? I have. Good black people seem to have the same trait. They are reliable, efficient and strong. The reason they are feared is because of years of propaganda starting with slavery. The people who wanted to own other people decided that they had to make that type of people look like they were less than human. Unfortunately, we still get retards like you who may call themselves "Christians" and are still racist. I tell you what, Jesus specifically said love others as i have loved you. Did you miss read that? Or are you choosing what is best for what you WANT to believe? I go o Church, and if anybody had some of the comments that you duchebags have, our priest would kick their ass. Because he is a black man preaching in a white church. And by the way, you dumb bitch, that is fucking Snoop Dogg. PEACE!

I Am Number Four
|Fri, 01-28-2011 - 5:30pm
Are there any fans of Pittacus Lore's "I Am Number Four" novel here? If so, have you heard that they are making his book into a film! It opens on February 18 and stars Alex Pettyfer and Dianna Agron (yes from Glee)! If you haven't read the book here's a quick bit of background info – the story follows John Smith (Alex Pettyfer) as he stands up against a rival race to save the planet and his five fellow remaining kids from Lorien. Granted, I know all of this since I work with DreamWorks, but I'm excited to hear what you all think. You can check out the trailer/interviews and bunch of clips here!

Lawrence Mayor William Lantigua to city: Keep waiting
Lawrence Mayor William Lantigua said it is too early to say whether he will ask for a recount after unofficial election results showed a narrow victory for challenger Daniel Rivera.
"I'm waiting for the election department to announce what the final tally is," Lantigua told NewsCenter 5 on Thursday. "My understanding is that are still counting the votes."
Under state law Lantigua has up to 10 days to request a recount.
"Keep waiting," Lantigua said.
Secretary of State William Galvin, the state's top elections official, says ballots from Tuesday's election have been locked in a vault under police guard in anticipation of a possible recount.
Rivera, a city councilor, claimed victory after an unofficial vote count showed him ahead by 60 votes.
Rivera said his campaign fought for every vote and will make sure "this election does not get stolen."

Gov. Scott Walker says the state added 9,500 jobs last month, accounting for more than half the jobs created nationwide in that period.
Walker told reporters Thursday the increase in Wisconsin jobs is the largest in about eight years. He says a total of 39,300 private-sector jobs have been created since he took office in January.
The state's unemployment rate in June was 7.6 percent. It has hovered around 7.4 percent for the first five months of the year. That's typically been about 1.5 percentage points better than the national average.
Walker's news conference comes on the same day that the U.S. Labor Department released disappointing news about the economy. Applications for unemployment benefits were up last week, evidence of rising layoffs and a weak job market.

Hi there,
I'm new at adding photos to CC. I am trying to add my naughty cake photos but I can't. Can someone explain to me how to add them.
I've ALSO been trying to find the Naughty Cakes gallery... for weeks. (I have been nothing but confused/disappointed with this "new" format ever since the change took place.)
To add a photo to the naughty cakes gallery, go to the galleries at the top of the page on the purple bar. Click on gallery home in the drop down menu. On the galleries page, there is a purple upload photos button top right. click on that. upload your photos, and open the dropdown menu under category. find and click on naughty cakes and that is where it should go. To view the naughty cakes gallery, go to galleries, then gallery home again. scroll down the page a ways. naughty cakes are between Misc and sports I believe.

Florida: Xavier Cortada's 'Antarctic Ice Paintings' on exhibit in Key Largo
Miami artist Xavier Cortada's Antarctic Ice Paintings are on exhibit at The Gallery at Kona Kai in Key Largo. The paintings, made in Antarctica in 2006 and 2007, were created using sea ice, glacier and sediment samples provided by scientists working on the continent. Cortada titled the works on paper by randomly selecting the names of geographic features from a map of the continent that inspired their creation.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
Using movie clips you can create seamless animations. In this movie we'll look at how to do that. To start out I'm going to show you the animation that I've created in the Flash Player. So I'll test the movie, and just notice the background elements animating. They animate in a seamless loop. I accomplished this by animating two graphic symbols having one act as a buffer. To see how that works, I'll select the hills in the front on the screen, then I'll convert that to a movie clip symbol and then I'll drop the graphic symbol inside of a movie clip by going to Modify > Convert to Symbol.
For the Type I'll choose Movie Clip and I will name this FrontHillsAnimation. Now I'll double-click the hills into the timeline. So now I'm inside of FrontHillsAnimation and I have the graphic symbol of the hills on the Stage. The first thing I'll do is make a copy of the hills. So I'll pan a little bit to the side and then Option or Alt+Drag the hills to the left. That'll create the copy. And just as a note I've created the artwork like this on purpose so the artwork would be seamless when I put the buffer in place.
So let's create some motion tweens. I'll select the original hills and choose Create Motion Tween with a right-click, and then I'll go back to the first frame and right-click, Copy, and choose Create Motion Tween. So I have two motion tweens. At the last frame of my timeline, I'm going to click-and-drag to select both sets of hills, and then I'm going to drag the hills to the right while holding the Shift key. And I want to drop them just before the right edge of the hills hits the right edge of the Stage. So I'll refine this position with my keyboard.
That way, when the animation loops and the original hills are aligned with the right edge of the Stage, it will look natural. If I had it set up so that copied hills were at the right edge of the Stage here, then it would look like the animation holds in the same spot for a while and I don't want that. So I want that loop to be seamless, so I'm going to put it just before that right edge. So let's test the movie in the Flash Player to see how this looks. There is the animation. Keep in mind if you wanted to change the speed of the animation, you can always click-and-drag at the end of the frame span to increase or decrease the duration of the animation.

Preserved garden at Huntington Library gets spruced up for its centennial
The teahouse is one of the first constructed after World War II and may be the oldest from that era, according to Folsom.
"I don't think you'll find in North America another teahouse that has the rich history that this one has," he said.
The downside for visitors is that you won't be able to go inside — or for that matter see inside — the teahouse. Except during special exhibitions, the exterior sliding panels will be closed.
"At the heart of Japanese culture is cleanliness," Folsom explained. "There's too much dust around here."
Guests, however, can eyeball the interior of the open-air two-story Japanese House that is staged with tea ceremony artifacts. During its recent renovation, preservationists had to get creative when re-roofing the ancient dwelling with the curved roof. "We had to dampen the shingles and put them in the microwave to get them to bend," said architect Kelly Sutherlin McLeod.
The Huntington, including the Japanese Garden, opened to the public in 1928, soon after its namesake's death. Since then, the picturesque, spiritual setting has been used in such Hollywood films as "Mame" (Robert Preston sang to Lucille Ball on the moon bridge) and "Anger Management" (Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler arrived at a Zen monastery).
In "Iron Man 2," the climatic battle at the Stark Expo rages on in a CG version of the Huntington's Japanese Garden (moviemakers photographed the real thing and then created a digital model, adding a golden temple). For "Memoirs of a Geisha," the garden doubled as the Baron's estate. Since it was offseason for the cherry trees to be flowering, set decorators erected a fake 30-foot-tall blossoming cherry tree in front of the Japanese House.

Our real wedding today comes from a country that we don't often get to visit. Anton and Iulia were married in Mogosoaia Garden Palace, a unique and beautiful outdoor wedding venue in Romania. Their celebration was a totally cosmopolitan one, with guests traveling from the UK, Finland, India, Austria, Japan, South Africa and other parts of Romania. We love Iulia's boho style gown, and how amazing is it that the bride and groom got to take a trip on a hot air balloon after the ceremony? Rares ION captured these superb images, and we have more details on the wedding from him below.
"Anton and Iulia's wedding was one of the most cosmopolitan I've ever shot, with guests from the UK, Finland, India, Austria, Japan, South Africa and even from Timisoara (500km away). Mogosoaia Garden Palace was a dream- the perfect location. I have seen a lot of parks in European capitals, but have not seen any more beautiful than Mogosoaia. The guests were outstanding and great fun, most of them were artists or from television, PR, marketing, advertising or other creative agencies. Anton is the drummer in The Nugglers, a band that already has a pretty big following, so the guests were treated to a live gig at the reception. I think the climax of the day though was the hot air balloon trip taken by Iulia and Anton, and a few brave guests!"
Thanks so much to Rares for sharing these images, we hope to be seeing more of him on Fly Away Bride soon!

"I tried making this one night and it didn't come out at all. It started burning before it reached the right temp...maybe my candy thermometer was off..."
"I made these the other day, and they were a hit. I didn't have bittersweet chocolate, so I used half semi-sweet squares and half unsweetened squares. Rolling them in the cinnamon sugar is a must. Will make again"
"These were really good! I made a half batch, but probably should have done the whole thing. I took them to work and they were gone. Next time I may put in a little bit of chuncy peanut butter, although my mother said not to, as they are just perfect already"
"my mom maintains the fact that she could taste the peanut butter, but I couldn't, especially after a day. I included putting the paprika in the food processor to blend it in."
"very good, just the right amount of flavor!"
"These came out very good, no one suspected they were low in fat. They kept very moist, although that might be because I added a bit of applesauce in with the mashed banana."
"Great quick dish! I added some chopped bell peppers and tobasco sauce also, as my family and I love spiciness!"
"I've made these twice, the second time was even better than before...I added a small amount of vanilla extract and it was delicious!"
"My mom made this several times over my high school years for cast parties. Very delicious!"

Individuals thinking about a tongue piercing may want to consider the potential negative effects of this choice on their dental health, particularly their tooth and gum integrity.Recent research from Austria published in the Journal of Adolescent Health may help confirm anecdotes about the risks associated with tongue piercing, Health Day reports.According to the news outlet, scientists gathered men and women between the ages of 16 and 36 with their tongues pierced, and had them wear a variety of plastic, steel and titanium studs. The participants who wore stainless steel studs were found to accumulate more bacteria on their tongues than those who wore plastic studs. More bacterial species on the tongue makes for an increased risk of infections, the Health Day article added.Dr. Ines Kapferer, the study's author, concluded that "consumers should avoid stainless steel and titanium studs in favor of [plastic], not only because of bacteria and a potentially higher risk of local infection of the piercing channel, but also because of the risk of tooth chipping and gum recession."The American Dental Association (ADA) officially opposes the popular practice of tongue piercing. Their listed reasons for this opposition include possible oral infections, gum recession and tooth damage - caused by the piercing process and stud quality, according to the ADA website. However, this area has a dearth of scientific studies. For more information on discount dental plans call 1-888-632-5353.

Does a Gold Supply Crisis Loom?
Despite representing the world's industry trade group of miners, apparently no one at GFMS actually knows anything about the gold mining industry. If they did, they would have noted the miners are in the midst of their second severe depression in five years -- in the midst of the longest/strongest bull-market in history.
Yet, incredibly, after noting that net mine supply has now actually started to decline, we have these propagandists stating:
The recent growth in mine production stalled during the second quarter of this year as recent increases in supply from new operations reached a plateau. Mine production is likely to remain in a consolidation phase for the remainder of 2012 ahead of a further raft of new operations, scheduled to come online next year.
Gold mine production was further constrained by a combination of adverse weather conditions, production interruptions at a number of operations and slower ramping up of production at a number of mines...Apparently GFMS is capable of seeing anything and everything that affects mine supply -- except the severe depression currently gripping the entire mining industry. I wonder why that is? Could it have anything to do with the fact that the current "depression" being experienced by these gold miners is entirely due to the extreme/rampant manipulation of the share prices of these miners by the banking cabal? How else do we explain the share prices of these miners collapsing by well over 50% across the board, in a bull market which requires constantly rising prices merely to maintain equilibrium? Remaining willfully blind to the banker-created depression in this sector, we have GFMS (and the WGC) predicting a rebound in mine supply next year because of "a further raft of operations scheduled to come online next year." These propagandists have the audacity to make that assertion immediately before noting that currently most project-development is running well behind schedule -- due to the severe depression that is completely invisible to GFMS. In fact, with the junior miners who are the lifeblood of the industry and responsible for well over 90% of all new gold deposits discovered in the world, it would take at least a year of strongly rising gold prices to break through the rampant share-price manipulation of the banking cabal so that these companies can properly function again. In other words, the implication of GFMS that these miners can simply "turn on" new supply like flicking a switch is totally opposite to the realities of mining -- meaning this consultant hired to represent the world's leading gold miners either knows nothing about this industry or is being intentionally misleading with its analysis.

We have an auction every Tuesday of the year, (excepting the two immediately around Christmas) – a Sunday / Monday viewing will be running on all Bank Holidays.
The saleroom is featured almost daily on television, with programmes such as Cash in the Attic, Dickinson's Real Deal, Flog It!, and Bargain Hunt. The frequent television coverage has already helped to make the auctioneers surprisingly well known public figures and considerably increased the public's knowledge of the saleroom.
Why use Chiswick Auctions?
- Weekly auctions with weekend viewings and huge client base guarantee the best possible exposure for your goods. Together with online real time bidding, with quality photographs of lots, on specialist live bidding website www.the-saleroom.com/chiswick
- Monthly specially advertised 'fine' sales for specialist and high value objects with a printed catalogue.
- Specialist departments – more specialists here than any other 'small' auction room in London allowing fortnightly speciality auctions prior to the Antiques & Interiors sales, view the calendar for dates.
- This website! Being regularly viewed by thousands of clients searching to bid on just the item you have entered in sale.
- Unpretentious, helpful staff who are as interested to help you with Granny's tea set, as handle your inherited Gainsborough.
- We can help with the entire contents of a property, selling the more humble objects as well as the more expensive. Where necessary we can arrange rubbish disposal too!
- Our own dedicated fleet of vans for collection and deliveries.
- We offer a small item postal service to assist our on-line bidders. Contact: email@example.com
What do we sell?
Although specialising in antiques, Chiswick Auctions sells a variety of goods including more modern items and designer goods. We will sell most items that have a value exceeding about £60.
What do we not sell?
Upholstered furniture made after 1950, regardless of original source MUST have a fire label indicating that it conforms to modern fire regulations BS7177, otherwise regrettably we cannot sell it by law.
Ivory objects of any sort must be proven to have been made pre 1947 and it is illegal to sell any unworked ivory items of any date.
Birds eggs are illegal to sell in the UK. Ivory and other wildlife products now fall under new legislation and are frequently problematic. At the very least ivory has to clearly be pre 1947 – talk to the auction room for more details as this is now a complicated field.
We cannot sell any offensive weapons that are not antique, and modern firearms must come from a vendor with a proven firearms licence.
Radio Ad
In Spring 2014 we launched our first radio ad which appeared exclusively on LBC radio 97.3 fm.
The 30 second radio commercial uses the smooth voice of Ray Brooks famous actor, singer, entertainer (voice of 70's children's program Mr Benn) and local to Chiswick.
This broadcast awareness campaign is the start of a series of 4 which develop a similar theme across 2014.

Feb. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Electricite de France SA rose after a government-commissioned report said the country should extend the operating life of Europe's largest network of nuclear- reactors to six decades.
EDF jumped as much as 4.3 percent, the steepest intraday advance since Nov. 30, and traded at 18.49 euros as of 3:08 p.m. in Paris. The shares have dropped about 40 percent since last year's nuclear accident at Fukushima in Japan.
The report advocates extending the lives of nuclear reactors, all 58 of which are owned by EDF, to ensure the cheapest possible power prices in 2030. Debate over the future of EDF's nuclear plants divides President Nicolas Sarkozy from his Socialist Party rival Francois Hollande. Sarkozy is seeking re-election amid weak poll ratings by pledging to guide the economy through the euro-region crisis.
"Sarkozy has previously expressed support for nuclear and it will clearly be a key policy difference between him and Hollande in the run up to the elections," Nomura analyst Martin Young said in an e-mail. "If price matters to the French, then this would be a logical step to take."
A pull-back from nuclear power would mean higher electricity costs for consumers, more carbon emissions and a greater need for investment in new sources of energy, according to the study, headed by Jacques Percebois, an economics professor at the University of Montpellier, and former International Energy Agency Executive Director Claude Mandil.
Safety Regulators
France should only close reactors for technical reasons defined by safety regulators, the report said.
"It would be a waste," Mandil said of any move to shut reactors for "administrative" reasons if they could continue to operate safely. "We aren't more pro-nuclear than anti- nuclear. We tried to be objective. What we are against is wastage of energy, money and expertise."
The findings run counter to Hollande's policy of reducing France's dependence on atomic power and halting EDF's oldest nuclear plant at Fessenheim because of concern it may be vulnerable to earthquakes. Sarkozy backs atomic power and has promised to keep Fessenheim running.
EDF's reactors provide about three quarters of France's power output. The state-controlled company is developing a new- generation 1,650-megawatt EPR model at Flamanville, in Normandy at a cost of about 6 billion euros. The existing generators are on average 25 years old with the first models undergoing safety inspections for their operating lives to be extended to 40 years.
Second EPR
France should push ahead with building a second EPR at Penly, also in Normandy, and EDF should start preparing to invest in maintenance and safety at existing plants to keep them operating, Industry Minister Eric Besson said today at a press conference after the report.
The study examined four scenarios for French energy policy, including investing to prolong EDF's fleet to 60 years at a cost of 55 billion euros in the next 15 years and then "massive" spending from 2030 for new plants. Power production prices would be 52 euros to 59 euros a megawatt-hour in 2030.
The case for replacing the existing fleet after 40 years with EPRs would require 10 billion to 12 billion euros of annual investment from 2020 to 2030 to build two a year and would result in the cost of power production of 60 euros to 73 euros a megawatt-hour. "Getting to this rate of construction seems hard to achieve," the report concluded.
'Gradual' Retreat
The "gradual" retreat from atomic energy by replacing one out of every two reactors reaching the age of 40 years with an EPR would bring France's dependence on nuclear power to 40 percent to 60 percent by 2030 and power production costs to 69 euros to 79 euros a megawatt-hour, according to the report.
Closing all reactors after 40 years and replacing them with renewable and fossil fuel generators would push power production prices to 80 euros to 102 euros a megawatt-hour depending on the energy mix, raise emissions and cost 100 billion euros through 2030, the report said.
"Prolonging the lives of nuclear reactors would be the least regrettable solution," the study concluded.
EDF and the atomic safety watchdog known as the Autorite de Surete Nucleaire are in talks on measures needed for reactors to operate for 60 years. At present, EDF generators undergo safety checks every 10 years.
EDF has long said that investment needed to permit the reactors to last beyond 40 years would be more cost-effective if they would also allow operations to continue to 60 years. The ASN has said it would keep the current system of inspections every decade.
"An implicit decision" has already been made to extend the lives of existing reactors because there's not enough time to develop replacement reactors such as EPRs or other forms of energy, the country's state auditor concluded in a report last month.
The Socialist Party's retreat from nuclear power is part of a rising movement against nuclear power since the Fukushima disaster. After protests in Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel decided to phase out atomic power and has already closed eight reactors. Switzerland and Italy have scrapped plans to build reactors.

Party Recap
This party post is a year overdue, but I just love all the color, so I needed to share. The theme was candy and cupcakes so we used the candy theme all around the room. Huge balloons hanged from the ceiling, an awesome balloon display behind the cake, lollipops and of course, a candy bar. The cake was just spectacular!
