Speaking to NME India a month ago (July 6) about his solo album, 'Depths Of The Ocean', Indian Ocean guitar player Susmit Sen had stated, "We will be heading out for a tour of Hard Rock Cafes in five cities this August". That tour begins tomorrow (August 9) at the Hard Rock Cafe in Mumbai.
Sen, whose distinctive guitar style is one of the key pillars of the Indian Ocean sound began work on some tracks on his solo album, long before Indian Ocean (the band, not the water body) was formed. "There are songs on Depths Of The Ocean that pre-date the formation of Indian Ocean", he says. "The title track, for instance, is a tune I composed way back in the 80s long before I formed Indian Ocean in 1990. Somehow, the track never worked in the context of Indian Ocean and the Susmit Sen Ensemble is a place where I get the opportunity to record and play those songs."
The Susmit Sen Ensemble that the guitar player refers to comprises, in addition to Sen, of course, Amit Sharma (vocals); Anirban Ghosh (bass); Gyan Singh (tabla); Nikhil Vasudevan (percussion) and Rajeev Raja (flute).
The tour schedule for the 'Depths Of The Ocean' tour looks like this:
9th Aug Mumbai
10th Aug Pune
16th Aug Hyderabad
17th Aug Bangalore
23rd Aug Delhi

Alert me when this guideline summary is updated.
This is the current release of the guideline.
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) reaffirmed the currency of the guideline in 2009.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection of the uterine cervix
Sexually active women and adolescent girls
Counseling on the Following Topics
The MEDLINE database, the Cochrane Library, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' own internal resources and documents were used to conduct a literature search to locate relevant articles published between January 1985 and December 2004. The search was restricted to articles published in the English language. Priority was given to articles reporting results of original research, although review articles and commentaries also were consulted. Abstracts of research presented at symposia and scientific conferences were not considered adequate for inclusion in this document. Guidelines published by organizations or institutions such as the National Institutes of Health and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists were reviewed, and additional studies were located by reviewing bibliographies of identified articles.
2009 Reaffirmation
For reaffirmation of a current Practice Bulletin, MEDLINE and Cochrane are searched for new literature. At the discretion of the review committee, additional databases may be searched for particular topics as warranted. In addition, committee members identify relevant literature for review.
Not stated
Studies were reviewed and evaluated for quality according to the method outlined by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force:
I: Evidence obtained from at least one properly designed randomized controlled trial.
II-1: Evidence obtained from well-designed controlled trials without randomization.
II-2: Evidence obtained from well-designed cohort or case–control analytic studies, preferably from more than one center or research group.
II-3: Evidence obtained from multiple time series with or without the intervention. Dramatic results in uncontrolled experiments also could be regarded as this type of evidence.
III: Opinions of respected authorities, based on clinical experience, descriptive studies, or reports of expert committees.
Analysis of available evidence was given priority in formulating recommendations. When reliable research was not available, expert opinions from obstetrician–gynecologists were used. See also the "Rating Scheme for the Strength of Recommendations" field regarding Grade C recommendations.
Each American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) Practice Bulletin is reviewed every 18–24 months by a member of the Practice Bulletins Committee. The reviewer presents the practice bulletin and any new literature at a full committee hearing. The committee then reaches a consensus on whether to reaffirm or withdraw the practice bulletin.
Based on the highest level of evidence found in the data, recommendations are provided and graded according to the following categories:
Level A — Recommendations are based on good and consistent scientific evidence.
Level B — Recommendations are based on limited or inconsistent scientific evidence.
Level C — Recommendations are based primarily on consensus and expert opinion.
In 2001, the National Cancer Institute completed a large multicenter randomized trial called the Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance/Low Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion Triage Study (ALTS). The study compared immediate colposcopy, human papilloma virus (HPV) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) testing by Hybrid Capture 2, and repeat cytology in the management of women with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) cytology. The study showed that 83% of women with LSIL cytology tested positive for high-risk HPV DNA, limiting the usefulness and the cost-effectiveness of HPV testing in differentiating which women with LSIL cytology should undergo colposcopy.
In 2001, the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (ASCCP), in conjunction with the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and 28 other participating professional and health organizations and federal agencies, hosted a consensus conference to develop comprehensive evidence-based guidelines for the management of women with cervical cytologic abnormalities and cervical cancer precursors. Among repeat cytology, immediate colposcopy, and HPV DNA testing, the consensus conference concluded that all three options were acceptable for managing women with ASC-US cytology. However, the preferred option was reflex HPV DNA testing for high-risk types when liquid-based cytology was used at the time of the initial visit. This approach eliminates the need for a repeat office visit, is the most sensitive of the triage tools, and results in the referral of fewer women to colposcopy than the other options at all age groups. Human papillomavirus testing was not recommended for triage of women with LSIL, atypical squamous cells that cannot exclude high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, or atypical glandular cells cytology. These women should undergo immediate colposcopy, and the use of HPV testing is not cost-effective in this population.
Although surgical treatment is relatively expensive, the ability to avoid multiple visits saves both the patient and the physician time and money and adds to the cost-effectiveness of the technique.
Because of the cost of the equipment and because laser surgery usually is performed in an operating room with general anesthesia, it is the most expensive modality for the treatment of genital warts.
Practice Bulletins are validated by two internal clinical review panels composed of practicing obstetrician-gynecologists generalists and sub-specialists. The final guidelines are also reviewed and approved by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) Executive Board.
The grades of evidence (I-III) and levels of recommendation (A-C) are defined at the end of the "Major Recommendations" field.
The following recommendations are based on good and consistent scientific evidence (Level A):
The following recommendations are based on limited or inconsistent scientific evidence (Level B):
The following recommendations are based primarily on consensus and expert opinion (Level C):
Grades of Evidence
Levels of Recommendations
None provided
The type of supporting evidence is identified and graded for each recommendation (see "Major Recommendations").
Appropriate screening and treatment of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection
These guidelines should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of treatment or procedure. Variations in practice may be warranted based on the needs of the individual patient, resources, and limitations unique to the institution or type of practice.
An implementation strategy was not provided.
Not applicable: The guideline was not adapted from another source.

Historic Interest: The area around the campground was clear cut in the late 1800's. Bark from hemlock trees was used in the large tanning industries nearby. The land was left for taxes and taken over by the state in 1902. Over the next 25 years it became a popular camping and hiking area. The cabin and other original buildings were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the early 1930's, making this one of the earliest campgrounds. Two main trails come through the campground making it popular with hikers.
Panther Mountain is the impact site of a meteorite that hit 350 million years ago. It is outlined by the Esopus Creek and Woodland Valley Stream, which form an almost perfect circle around Panther Mountain.

GardenGirl - if you are still around 2 years since posting this. . . here's to let you know that I have just tried copying your phenomenal combination. It's to die for, as they say. Thanks for the wonderful photo. |

The baptisia and pink peonies combo, that is. |
- Posted by gardengirl_17 z5 OH (My Page) on Thu, May 22, 08 at 7:34
luckyladyslipper, I was just looking on the peony forum for new photos this morning and happened to see your post. Thank you for your compliment, I think you'll be very happy with the combination. It's still looking good for me here and the peonies of course are bigger every year. Golden, I'm sorry I didn't see your post last year. The peony in the background of the first photo is Pastel Sunrise and you can get it from Khlem's nursery (www.songsparrow.com). It is just starting to bloom this year so I will try and remember to post a photo. |
Is pastel sunrise a shrub type? I think I want it too! |

Zambia Safari Holidays
If you love the thought of a slow immensely fascinating three hour bush walk with a world class guide, dream of paddling a two man canoe down the Zambezi as elephants cavort at the water's edge and kingfishers dive, or crave the excitement of watching a gorgeous leopard move with graceful power through the savannah, you'll certainly enjoy a Zambia safari experience.
A Zambia safari is for people who like their safaris a little more active and adventurous and because the best camps have been set up by enterprising guides, the accommodation, while certainly comfortable, is at heart a "bush camp" each with its own personality.
A Zambia Safari
The Zambezi is one of the world's great rivers, up to half a mile wide. Its faster flowing near Victoria Falls, slower and filled with wildlife 500 miles east by the Lower Zambezi National Park. From June to November the Lower Zambezi teems with wildlife. The highlight of a Zambia safari in the Lower Zambezi has to be the unforgettable sight of elephants emerging from the bush at the end of a long day to drink, splash themselves down, play and relax on the river. You could sit in a boat with a cool drink and watch them forever.
Further east the South Luangwa in the southern end of the Rift Valley, has some of the best walking country criss-crossed by wildlife, paths, cool streams and a scattering of lagoons, you see huge herds of buffalo, giraffe, antelope, big cats and more elephant.
West of Lusaka, the Busanga Plains are exceptionally beautiful, flat grassy plains with islands of trees and of course no Zambia safari would be complete without seeing Victoria Falls – a mile width of cascading water forcing a spray cloud hundreds of feet into the air.
Zambia Safari Seasons
Zambia is the safari country most influenced by seasonal weather. The reasons are that some areas have "cotton soil" which is impassable after a small amount of rain, and also because the Luangwa River is not controlled by a dam so it floods part of the National Park in the Luangwa valley. The main safari season in Zambia runs from April to November. As that season advances game viewing becomes progressively more spectacular. By July many of the seasonal waterholes have dried out so more animals make their way to the Zambezi, Luangwa and other rivers for vital water. The Zambezi is often besieged by elephants by late afternoon in the second half of the year!
However, the rainy season from December to March can be a great time to take a low cost safari in Zambia focussing upon the all weather tracks of the South Luangwa National Park. At this time the river is in spate, the skies are monumental, the trees magnificent and the birdlife abundant. The wildlife is all there though more spread through the national park.
Victoria Falls is at its fullest from February to September and you can enjoy a wide range of adventure activities there all year round.
Zambia - Useful Information
Direct flights operate from London to Lusaka, Zambia three times a week. It's just over 9 hours away and from Lusaka a flight of 30 minutes takes you over the escarpment to superb little camps like Chiawa right on the Zambezi River. Or head an hour east by air to reach the heart of the South Luangwa National Park. Other excellent areas like the Kafue National Park, the Busanga Plains and Liuwa are accessible by small plane which can be chartered at reasonable cost to meet your convenience. Victoria Falls is reached by air from all parts of Zambia and from Johannesburg. It is an excellent location for a few days relaxation beside the Zambezi, and for adrenalin rush adventures like white water rafting and microlighting over the mile wide falls.
A visa ($50 depending on your nationality) is available at the airport on arrival. Please consult your medical doctor about vaccinations and malaria protection.

South Luangwa
This long wide valley with its big meandering river is perfect for a slow morning walk with an armed scout and expert guide. You feel safe, yet you're suddenly on the same level as the animals. A walk allows you to see a smaller part of the beautiful landscape in depth, noticing things you'd miss from a vehicle: Leopard tracks, an iridescent dragonfly, an army of marching matabele ants on a raiding mission. Then simply sit by the river for half an hour with a cool drink and watch the elephants drinking and playing.
Mighty Zambezi
In the long dry season the Zambezi's the main water source for thousands of animals. From mid- afternoon elephants, cats, antelope and buffalo emerge from the bush and crowd the water's edge. This is the best time for a slow boat ride or even better to drift past at a respectful distance in a stable canoe. From superb Chiawa camp the guides will take you downstream by boat past all the animals and birds. Then a vehicle will meet you and you can see them all again as you meander back to camp as the sun sets.
Remote Places
Zambia has many fascinating less visited reserves where you really feel that you're pioneering. The North Luangwa has amazing walking and a real sense of remoteness. From June to October the Busanga Plains are an ocean of glorious grassland with vast herds of antelope menaced by prides of lion. There's a huge migration of zebra and plains game across the Liuwa Plains for a few weeks before the end of the year. In May and June the Banguelu swamps are invaded by hundreds of thousands of black lechwe and immense numbers of birds.
We know Zambia and its delightful small camps and lodges intimately. Call us now to plan your perfect Zambia safari.
Victoria Falls
One of Africa's great scenic wonders. You can stand half way across facing a mile's width of waterfall. The ground vibrates through your feet, the roar fills your head and a million droplets of spray swirl upwards - a multi-sensory experience! We'll take you over the falls in a microlight, below in a raft, and along the big river above on a sundowner cruise. There are elephant back safaris, walking with lions, fishing and much more. The five star Royal Livingstone or the small lodges on the river are perfect for a some relaxation after your safari.

9 Ways To Avoid Ruining A First Date
There's a lot of pressure on a first date. First impressions aren't always make or break, but they certainly count for a lot. Listed below are some of the dangers that must be avoided if you want to reach date number two. Follow this list of don'ts, and everything should be fine.
Don't get drunk
If the date isn't going well don't think that turning to drink will get it back on track. Sure a little bit of alcohol will help you relax and be yourself, but misjudge this and things will only end horribly.

Flash Back Fridays
Written on November 30, 2012 at 8:30 am, by Scott
Forty grade 7 students from Parksville middle school returned recently from a three day trip to the Strathcona Park Lodge where they took part in kayaking, canoeing, nature study and rope climbing classes.
The three day outdoor instruction "gave the students and teachers a chance to get together on a more informal, less structured basis and taught us all a few outdoor skills," said middle school teacher Dick Tindall.
"I felt the trip was very successful," he continued, "I don't know how much value to put on the actual skills we were taught, but it was valuable in that a rapport between the students and teachers was developed."
"Kayaking is done in a small, very buoyant boat, shaped like a banana," wrote Colleen, one of the students, after the trip. "You use a two-ended paddle and a spray deck to keep dry."
"It seems to be a very interesting sport, but before you can really go anywhere, you have to do a wet exit. A wet exit is when the kayak is upside down and you escape from it."
"It was a long trip here and, after this interesting feat of kayaking, we were ready for a big dinner. Our dinner consisted of tea or milk, salad, soup and chicken."
"Our next activity was really interesting," wrote Lisa. "First you go up a dirt trail off the highway, and then you turn off onto the Preece- Evans trail. It was really pretty."
"A bog is a dry lake that becomes a swamp, then eventually a meadow, and a bog is in between swamp and meadow. You come to a boardwalk, planks over the muck. If you step off the boardwalk you'll sink." "We saw some squirrels. We had to stop because the boardwalk ended and it was all mushy."
"The students were not forced to do anything during the trip," Tindall explained.
"It's all individual choice. The rope skills instruction, for instance. Some of the students have a fear of heights and they only have to take it as far as they want. "First we walked across a swaying log which swung back and forth when you were on it. Our leader was a French lady from Quebec named Danielle." "After we finished the log walking, we had to walk up a wire using a rope to pull ourselves. That was hard."
"Finally, we put on the belts and ropes with a clasp on them. There were logs about 1,520 feet high (actually 12 feet) with a cable above them, which is where you hooked your clasp so you wouldn't fall. It was pretty hard because it was so cold your hands were numb."
"I jumped on purpose to let the clasp hold me up and it was excellent".

Industrial applications usually look for monitors that will not become obsolete once there is a panel revision change. Specs are typically the first thing that is looked at when deciding on a touch screen monitor. Intangible things that are looked at as well would be how reliable a unit is along with how flexible a unit is in terms of what can be done with the unit to accomodate the needs of projects. With an 800 nit LCD panel that shines in either indoor or outdoor environments, this miniscule open frame form factor is a space saver and gives your application designer freedom to build all types of enclosure models.

"Great recipe! This is a quick and easy way to have a variety of "fruit" muffins when you're out of fruit. I always have some kind of jam in the fridge -- today I used strawberry jam. Delicious, and very pretty with a tiny bit of jam peeking out of the tops. I didn't care for the icing but the muffins are great w/o it. Oh, and I used 1/2 cup gra..."
"I love a crisp crust so I spread the batter onto a preheated pizza stone and it turned out fine. The batter "set" quickly when it touched the stone so there was no mess. I baked the batter alone for about 8 minutes (at 500 degrees) until it was getting a bit brown on top and crisped up on the bottom) then added toppings (just cheese this time) a..."
"This was very good and so easy! I found it a bit salty so would use less lemon pepper next time (maybe it's the generic brand I used). I chose this recipe because I had some leftover gravy and I LOVE rice, but to tell the truth, I didn't expect much. Whoever heard of baking raw rice without covering the pan with foil? But I heated the broth as..."
"I loved the pureed veggies as a substitute for using cream or half & half. I originally found this recipe because I had no cream on hand and wanted chowder w/o going to the store -- I always have wine on hand! It does add a wonderful flavor. I may decrease the carrots next time, it made the soup a bit too orange. I also just used regular canne..."
"Delicious! This is truly an old-fashioned recipe -- thanks for posting. I made this goulash for friends -- not the spaetzle, too tired at the time, though I may try someday. I added some red wine for depth, and used green peppers instead of red, for a bit of color. Took some shortcuts instead of sauteeing everything separately, but it turned o..."
"I made this goulash for a small dinner party on a cold autumn evening - delicious. I didn't use the hot paprika, and added some splashes of red wine to add a bit of complexity to the flavor. I had to simmer it for quite a bit longer than called for -- the beef (I used cubed bottom round roast) wasn't really fork tender until it had simmered about..."

"These little things are addictive! I've made them several times now, and found them even better when I spread the rectangles with a light smear of soft butter before adding the sugar and cinnamon. It sort of helped carmelize the sugar. I also doubled the icing because we love loads of it on top and down in the pan. So good!! Thanks for a time..."
"My family LOVED this sandwich -- we opted to squish it by placing it between two cutting boards and having my 88-year-old mom step on it. It was delicious! It even tasted good a day later. I was afraid to put the whole amount of liquid in the mayo so put about half instead. Still a wonderful combination of flavors. Thanks for posting such a f..."
"I hate to be a party-pooper, but this was just way too sweet for me. I like Butterfingers and so does my family, but no one (across several generations) gave this a thumbs up.

I did a survey in my college, asking this very question. Along with other related questions, I asked "who do you think impacted America more and changed it for the better? " - 57.14% said MLK, 3.57% said Malcolm X and 39.29% "I don't know". Apart from the obvious observation of not enough of black history is being taught in English schools, I saw that a massive 67.86% of people said that agree with MLK's way of doing things too (including peaceful protests and passionate speeches.)
Malcolm X was undoubtedly an incredible leader for the black people of America and he achieved massive change, impacting America for the better. But part of his achievements SHOULD be focused on how much of him is being taught in schools today and who actually knows about him? If he was better than MLK surely he would be more heard of? Who HASNT heard of MLK? When asked "on a scale of 1 to 10, how much do you know about Malcolm X?(10 being a lot and 1 being never heard of him). 8.14% of people knew a lot about him and 24.42% of people had never heard of him. This, compared to the same question but this time referring to MLK, 0.00% of people had never heard of him and 15.29% knew a lot about him. More needs to be taught about them both, as these are embarrassing statistics, but in fairness, the question needs to be asked, why have so many people never heard about Malcolm X?
All in all, Malcolm was an outstanding representative of black civil rights, but MLK out shone him, achieving more and impacting America forever.
Now despite Mlk having his flaws in ideologies he remained a more important stance in history simply because he was able to start the civil rights movement whilst using non violent methods. Now he may have taken a longer time to get points across but he was assassinated because he was found to be more influential and a threat to the whites.
Both had contrasting ideologies but king was clearly a better leader and did more for the black community. Malcolm X rose to prominence in the 1950's merely because of his political statements meanwhile king sought to improve the standard of lives through HISTORICALLY PROVEN and practical methods introducing the voting rights act/ civil rights act and so forth. He supported countless campaigns like the bus boycott which was mainly successful because of his work. Also individuals that say peaceful methods did nothing really need to research in depth because the extremism that Malcolm x advocated in practise experienced short lived success. Its also worth noting that Malcolm X did not take part in any of the violent methods he preached and would prevent them sometimes in complete contrast to king. Malcolm X also rejected integration so his beliefs were pretty much useless to black Americans who wanted to live normally with white people at the time.
The love of God instead of hate. Everything in the Bible is centered on love. If everyone truly followed and understood the Bible there won't be all this evil and crap in this world. Everyone is on the same level. No one is above another, even the sinful. It is never a war against people but evil.
And the education part allowed King to foster relationships in higher places that ultimately led to real changes being done. His education also allowed him to see the power of education. Education was and still is a tool for freedom and success.
In short, the attitude and way of life King preached was direct contrast to the stereotypes of Black people. Therefore, it showed how much a fallacy the beliefs of racists really was. It shamed the racists as the racists quickly became a minority as other Whites saw the White racists as fools.
History has shown that the methods used by Martin Luther King are a more effective way of creating change. Non violent approaches prompt less radical reactions, help break down conservative viewpoints, and generally serve to shame your opposition into realizing that their point of view is not the correct one to have.
MLK didn't use violence or aggresion Malcolm X did but both are marytrys because they both died for what they believed in but MLK is more influential even though they have an equally as tough backgroud. Also he had better and more excitable and insparational speeches where as Malcon X didn't. :)
Although violence can solve it isn't right as Dr King said non violence is the most potent weapon. He is saying it is the most powerful and effective weapon it is, because non violence teaches but also shows love and equality for all races, black or white. MLK is an inspiration
He managed to intimidate his opponents cleverly, and because black people were known beginning to look after and defend themselves, the government began to pass acts in the senate which would eventually lead to the position of black people in society increasing. So although people just mainly talk about MLK, we should also remember Malcolm x for what he did to help black people
They both want the same rights being free. Martin Luther King Jr. Was better because even though they both teamed up he knew that it would be better if we don't fight them.That we should fight against man the man who is causing us to be separate and not each other. Malcolm X on the other hand thought we should fight anyone who gets in our way or tries to stop us.I don't think that he was really think for them mind that he was speaking from his feelings of what was going on.That he didn't he was so busy want to still be separated that he wasn't trying to come together as a nation.
If you fight fire with fire, you will get burned. Martin Luther King Jr. Was a better civil rights leader than Malcolm X because he was apart of the Peaceful Protest movement during the Civil Rights Movement. Much was accomplished by his peaceful protest and calm reaction to everything that was going on. This made him able to be heard and not ignore such as Malcolm X.
Malcolm X was more articulate in explaining the condition of the Afro American in America, not only to whites but to people all around the world. He stood by his principles (unlike King who cheated on his wife) no matter how unpopular they may seem, and cared deeply for the black race.
Because Martin Luther King used harmony and passive ways to address his message while Malcolm X used violence because he thought it was necessary, it was better for the white people that black people use peaceful protest because that wouldn't have any pressure on them. Instead Malcolm X used violence to get his point across. By the way, the anti-Malcolm X answers will come from people who never heard any of his speeches and who sadly assume he was just some racist guy. He taught blacks that they could stand up tall and be men and women who are intelligent and self-sufficient.
While martin Luther king undoubtedly represented some of the values and beliefs of the African American community(and was undeniably an effective leader), king was merely a "notice board" for his race. He brought many of the injustices that blacks suffered to the public's attention and while he did suffer some of the same racism, by and large, martin Luther king lived a comfortable and well-insulated life: he had a wholesome and supporting family and he attended prestigious schools and obtained a remarkable education--while this was in no way "bad" it clearly sets him apart from the down-trodden and unprivileged masses that he supposedly related to. Malcolm X on the other hand lucidly connects to his race, he underwent all of the difficulties that the everyday black person suffered through, and even spiraled down to the unfortunate life of crime that many young blacks of that era unwittingly found themselves forced into from a sheer lack of reasonable options and opportunities, like thousands of other black families Malcolm also witnessed his family fall apart at the hands of the Klan and society, and yet, he still managed to overcome these apparently insurmountable obstacles and better himself and then attempt to do the same for his race. In short, Malcolm x has endured every possible hardship that the average negro faced in his everyday life, therefore he understands and relates better than most civil rights leaders (and certainly more than King) to the underprivileged black masses and his life and past experiences practically represents the lives of most of his race. On a final note I've noticed that many people here argue the point that Malcolm x preached violence and hatred, this is wrong Malcolm x did not preach violence nor hatred-- he was vehemently against it, however he did believe that if you got hit then you hit back (i.E self defense); Malcolm X was just a proactive leader who believed in the advancement of his race FIRST regardless of whether he had white society's seal of approval and he simply felt that sending members of his race to get beaten and mangled on live television for whites to UNWILLINGLY acknowledge the black man was a waste of time and effort when blacks could simply withdraw from white society, unite and better themselves.
Martin Luther King has transformed the African American population into a race to be "sorry" for. If Malcolm X had a larger influence, I am sure the black population would be regarded more highly. Martin Luther King got what was coming to him. Malcolm X was killed in a much cooler Muslim drive-by. I rest my case.
Although I respect Martin Luther King's passivity to an extent, I believe Malcolm X's philosophy had much more power in it. He wasn't afraid to speak up for the atrocities done upon the black man, whereas MLK was acting as if we would be granted equality against a group of people that damn near hates the color of our skin. You can see near Martin Luther King's end during his last speech, he finally agreed with a more volatile angle for rights of black people. Malcolm X would of caused a revolution, it is not at all wrong to seek a better existence here.
I think Malcolm X was better because he was developed in a totally different neighborhood. This is what lead him to be as violent as he is.
White men killed his family leading to his hatred for whites. That is why my love for Malcolm X is still growing more and more
Malcom X isn't taught in detail at schools. I feel Malcom X puts it best when he said of Martin Luther King Jr: "He got the peace prize, we got the problem.... If I'm following a general, and he's leading me into a battle, and the enemy tends to give him rewards, or awards, I get suspicious of him. Especially if he gets a peace award before the war is over."
I'm a majority saying yes are white or did not read Malcolm X's autobiography. He clearly was not a violent man, just someone who wanted action to stand up against being oppressed for hundreds of years by white men. MLK was a great civil rights leader, but his sit ins and such brought about change very slowly. Malcolm X made much more progress for African Americans because he actually challenged the white man and went all over the world to profess his ideas for change. Growing up as white kid in a conservative state, Malcolm X is simply labeled as a "violent and crazy black muslim" leader in the 60's, but if you dig deeper you will find Malcolm X was a great individual who went through hard times. A true intellectual, he made his beliefs known but always checked the facts and was willing to change his ideals if the facts told him to change. We need a Malcolm X day...
During the year of 1964, there were two men they can from different backgrounds. All though these men were opposed to each other methods, they were protesting for black equality. Malcolm X believes in the philosophy of Black Nationalism where as Martin Luther King Jr. Focused more on the strategy of nonviolence to reach his audience. I feel as though Malcolm X's philosophy was more persuasive with his methods of black nationalism compared to Martin Luther King Jr.. I feel this way because of the proof that he has to back up his method versus that of MLK Jr..
Malcolm X has a few different ways of persuading his audience to fight with him. One of his ways is by traveling to many different places and spreading the significance of black nationalism. Each of the separate places, he found many similarities. He found the method in which he can express black nationalism by looking at the way these many places gained their independence '. This philosophy is a self-help philosophy. " They're not getting it by singing"We Shall Overcome." No, they're getting it through nationalism." Malcolm X states this quote during his speech " The Ballot or the Bullet" because it has a significance. It is proved that in Asia and in Africa fighting back is what got them independence. He also talks about Cassius Clay; he won the heavy-weight champion of the world. Of course he did not become the heavy-weight champion by 'singing but by swinging.' You can not simply sing upon freedom, It is not going to be that easy. You must swing upon freedom. I think people respond more to violence than nonviolence.
MLK Jr. Did not have any evidence for his philosophy, nonviolent resistance. Nonviolent resistance is just simply civil disobedience. I also feel like the blacks were tired of "sit-ins." The sit-ins were just saying that 'Yeah I can sit here', but it showed nothing getting done for black equality. The whites were also tired of the sit-ins so they told the black that they would take down the racist signs in the store windows. "Victims of a broken promise. A few signs, briefly removed, returned; the others remained."The whites had already went back to there ways. The sit-ins might have work for a little while, but now it had been to long. The blacks wanted equality now. When you "wait for more than 340 years" and you are doing sit-ins, nothing will change. Malcolm X is right "anything can sit."
In conclusion, I would like to say that Malcolm X is right. He went to different countries to help the blacks in the United States. Martin Luther King Jr. Was about sitting there and doing nothing. No fighting. What are you going to get accomplished by doing nothing but sitting? You won't get the black equality, you are looking for. "You can not sing upon freedom, but you may swing upon freedom!"
The blackman continues to be a second class citizen in this integrated society. Malcolm rightly pointed out that there's need to empower the oppressed so that they can integrate with a thorough knowledge of themselves. Otherwise as we integrate we lose our identity and become more european. As people integrate they lose their culture and identity

Well, I picked up a new Gen 3 Glock 19 today, and I was surprised by two things I found in the box.
The first was a brochure on "Glock: 25 Years of Perfection," and the years were 1986 - 2011.
The second was the casing from the test fire shot at the Smyrna, GA HQ. It was collected on 09/26/2011.
These two items brought me to the conclusion that Glock is still manufacturing Gen 3 Glocks, and I was very happy to find this out!

I ordered an order from Amazon which came to a little under $25.00 (free shipping). To boost the order over $25.00 I had them to through in a package of Ferry-Morse Rainbow pepper seed. The seed came in a pack mixed together. I am not going to waste my time planting these seed, if anyone wants them, send my your address and I will send them to you, other wise they are going into the bird feeder or the compost. Larry |

And why would you not plant those Larry? I planted them one year and it's a nice selection of bell peppers. |

If the seeds were color coded I would plant them, or at least 1 or 2 of each color. With my luck i would end up with a doz. of one color. I dont want to waste that much garden space. I would like to play with pimento peppers this year. Larry |

Waste space....with peppers? HaHa, you know me, that could be half of my garden. I was in Arkansas today and bought 3 kinds of fresh hot peppers at the Mexican Market. In fact, I haven't put my groceries away yet and my kitchen rather looks like a Mexican restaurant with habs, jalapeno, pablano, jicama, corn tortillas, flour tortillas, and a new tortilla press for times when I make my own. There's more, but you get the idea. Larry, if you haven't bought your pimento peppers yet I could send you a few seeds. You probably would never use a whole pack if you had them. I don't think there are many in my pack but I would be happy to split it with you. I think I have red and a tangerine. I don't think I'll be planting either one of them this year. I have already selected what I am going to plant and will probably even have to scale that back some. |

Carol, I would love to have a few pimento seeds. It you would like I will send you this Rainbow pack. I really dont want to mess with planing them. |

Larry, I don't need the pepper pack, but I'll get you some seeds in the mail on Monday. Anything else you need while I'm digging in the seeds? Carol |
- Posted by slowpoke_gardener 6/7 (My Page) on Mon, Feb 11, 13 at 15:27
Carol, thank you. I cant think of anything else I need. I hope to plant some cole crop seeds today and maybe mulch the onions I planted too early. I also plan on get a couple of soil samples to be tested. We can have two free soil test a year, so I plan on getting the samples and let them be drying before the next rain starts. I have to watch my P. K. and Zn. because they want to run too high. I did not test last year, but 2010 to 2011 the numbers dropped about 30% by reducing the amount of shredded oak leaves I was tilling into the soil, plus the cover crop may have pulled the numbers down some.

Textiles: Carnegie: Modern Vintage
The Modern Vintage Collection of upholstery textiles from Carnegie provides an updated take on classic designs. Inspired by fabrics found at flea markets, many of which were made at a time when intricate details were stitched by hand, the six styles in the collection offer a fresh look with all the high-performance features that are expected of a modern textile. Maxwell Street (top) is Carnegie's interpretation of traditional tapestry technique. The fill-faced structure hides the warp threads, allowing for the clustered hexagon pattern to have a crisp look that brings out its vibrant colors.Brimfield (above) offers a whimsical, larger-scaled pattern with a subtle ombre effect on a textured background, and is made with Bella-Dura fiber in a closed loop-recycling stream.
The collection features several indoor/outdoor styles including Camden (above), a bold geometric Sunbrella Contract fabric inspired by the shape of vintage clocks and snowshoes, and made in a zero landfill plant.
The styles in the collection are named after famous flea markets around the world, and also include the dynamically textured Brick Lane, the soft, heathered Chelsea, and the nuanced Vintage, which features a multicolored warp that weaves through a chenille fill. carnegiefabrics.com

Making nouns from verbs is a verb important concept.
In English we can think of the nouns we create thusly in one of two ways:
This can be considered as an nounal form of te verb itself. It is best shown with the example:
Here are some examples of the less easily characterised words.
Note that this page applies to words that started "life" as verbs, and allows us to turn them into nouns. I have a whole page on turning nouns into verbs and this page does not necessarily apply to verbs formed in that manner. Of course forming the underlying noun from those verbs could be as simple as reversing the veribification process. Of course that is not always true: út ... ... utaz ... ... utazás way ... ... to travel ... ... (a) journey

Sometime ago didn't someone post about getting a weird phone call concerning their computer? I had one today, he was foreign sounding and asked for Amber. Then he asked if I were a family member and I said yes, and then I did not catch it all but something about Windows and could I get on the computer. I told him no, not while I am on the phone, oh that is okay just look at the keyboard and see the CLT key and next to it the ALT key? I was in the kitchen by my laptop but did not open it or touch a key and I told him yes, then he asks what I was seeing and I told him nothing. He said well wait just a minute. All was quiet for a bit and I finally said hello a couple of times and he answers, I asked what this was about and he said it was nothing to worry about. I hung up. Right away he called back, I did not answer. It comes in on my caller ID as "Unknown Number" and Unknown Name". It also came in the other night at almost 9:00. I hung up then when they did not answer my hello right away. Oh, Amber has not lived here for at least 8 years. Has anyone else gotten a phone call like the one I got today?

Here's another report, from the Computer Help Forum |
Here is a link that might be useful: strange call
Yes, I have had that one. The first time I just said no, I'm not going to do that, and I hung up. Then he kept calling - maybe 10 times in 30 minutes, and I finally asked him "What the hell kind of idiot do you think I am, you jackass?", only not as politely, LOL. |
They do that all the time here in Oz. Don't engage with them, just hang up. They claim to be calling on behalf of Microsoft to fix a potential problem with your computer. If you follow their instructions you may end up giving them remote access to your computer at worst and ending up with thousands of viruses (one of DH's customers had over 2,000 viruses!) at best. Then they charge you $200 for the insult. |
I can't help but wonder why you engage in ANY conversation at all with someone you don't recognize about something you don't know. Hang up. When they call back, tell them to hold on while you turn on your recording devices. |
I've gotten that call several times--I just tell them that I don't own a computer. That gets them off the phone in a hurry! |

Harold L. Moses, M.D., Recipient of the 2013 AACR Lifetime Achievement in Cancer Research Award
CRCHD grantee, Harold L. Moses, M.D., was honored with the 10th Annual Award for Lifetime Achievement in Cancer Research by the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) during their annual meeting held in Washington, DC, April 6-10. The award, established in 2004, is given to scientists who have made significant contributions to cancer research, either through a single scientific discovery or a collective body of work. The contributions must have had a lasting impact on the cancer field and must have shown a lifetime commitment to progress against cancer.
Moses is the founder and director emeritus of the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center (VICC), Hortense B. Ingram professor of molecular oncology, and acting chair of cancer biology, medicine, and pathology at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, Tennessee. For the past 20 years, he has also been the director of the Frances Williams Preston Laboratories at VICC, which houses 20 senior scientists conducting cancer research. In addition, Moses served as president of AACR from 1991-1992.
"Dr. Moses is a pioneer in the field of growth factors and tumor suppressors," said Margaret Foti, Ph.D., M.D., chief executive officer of the AACR. "His lifelong groundbreaking research accomplishments and extraordinary leadership in the field are testaments to his dedication and commitment to progress against cancer."
In Moses' laboratories, cancer researchers study molecular activity within cells that can lead to cancer. The focus has been on breast cancer, and many of their discoveries have influenced the work of other cancer scientists. One of Moses' groundbreaking accomplishments in the early 1980s was his finding that transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-b) was an inhibitor of normal cell growth. This revolutionized cancer cell research, much the same way as the discovery of tumor suppressor genes did in the field of oncogenesis. This finding unlocked a whole new investigative avenue, with scientists focusing on the disruption in balance between positive and negative growth regulators as an underlying cause of cancer.
Another seminal discovery from the Moses lab is that the loss of TGF-b signaling in certain stromal cells results in the development of cancer in the adjacent epithelial tissue.
Moses has also served as a mentor for numerous students and postdoctoral fellows who are now prominent scientists and thought leaders in cancer research.
His work with CRCHD, along with Samuel Adunyah, Ph.D., professor and chair of cancer biology at Meharry Medical College in Nashville, established the Meharry-Vanderbilt-Tennessee State University Cancer Partnership. A mutually beneficial arrangement for the three institutions, the partnership has fostered collaborative research examining disparities in cancer incidence and outcomes in African Americans living in the southeastern United States, improved education of those generally underrepresented in biomedical sciences, increased recruitment of new cancer research faculty, and enhanced the cancer research enterprise at institutions serving underrepresented and underserved populations.
One of the major research projects being conducted by this partnership is a multi-million dollar NCI R01grant involving 86,000 low-income participants recruited across 12 southeastern states, two-thirds of whom are black. The largest study of cancer risk in underserved populations, it has built a repository, which currently houses DNA from 90 percent of the cohort.
William Blot, Ph.D., a principal investigator with Moses at Vanderbilt and a former NCI scientist, called Moses "a staunch supporter of research to ameliorate disparities in cancer and a major impetus for this large cohort that began in 2001."
Moses has also been involved with another partnershipbetween the University of Hawaii and the University of Guam, two minority-serving institutions. He has served as a long-term member of the Program Steering Committee and helped establish a tissue bank.
Internationally renowned, Moses has served in many leadership and advisory roles in the cancer research community, received numerous accolades, and authored hundreds of scientific papers.
Moses graduated from Berea College in Kentucky and then obtained his M.D. from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, where he also completed his residency. He did his postdoctoral research training at the National Institutes of Health.
