Financial Update from George Oss, Chair, Finance Team: Offering receipts to the General Fund on Feb 15 were exceptional. Our current receipts and budgets are compared below:
Feb. Budget Feb. Receipts YTD Budget YTD Receipts General Fund $13,714 $18,013 $23,998 $31,505 Building Fund $ 2,800 $ 1,567 $ 4,900 $ 3,636 2014 Financial Recap statements are available for pickup in the narthex. Please direct any questions about your statement to Nancy Burkhart.
New procedure for flower contributions: Thank you for your faithfulness by contributing flowers weekly for our worship together. Going forward there will no longer be separate envelopes. Merely include your flower contribution in your regular offering envelope and mark "Flowers" on the "other" line and the amount. Any questions see Isabelle. Thanks.
The 2015 church offering envelopes can be picked up in the narthex. We would like everyone to please use envelopes to make the job of the counters much easier. If you don't have a set for 2015 or have any other questions, please contact Eileen Wolfe or Carol Parkerson. Note: the dates have been left off, so we will need to write them in on each envelope used. Leaving the specific date off and making the envelopes generic will allow those who give less frequently than weekly to use the "unused" envelopes in subsequent years, which will cut down on our future "offering envelope" expense. As an enhancement, the next time we order envelopes we will be sure to have the company print a separate line and the word "Date" under it, so you will have a designated place to write in the date. Thank you for using the envelopes. Your Finance Team.
Missing someone? If you notice that someone has been absent from church over a period of 2 or 3 weeks, please give them a friendly call. Or, if you prefer, notify Shirley Todd and she will call them. Culpepper United Methodist Church: let me (Pastor Gorman) know that they are praying for us. Let us reciprocate by praying for their congregation as God continues to use them to spread the Good News. This is part of the Bishop's initiative to support one another in prayer throughout the Virginia Conference. May we also include Salem United Methodist Church and Cunningham United Methodist Church. Thanks, George Name Tags: Thanks for faithfully wearing your name tag, an act of hospitality and courtesy to your neighbor. They will be placed in alphabetical order rather than by numbered slots. Remember to check the bulletin board in the Fellowship Hall and your mail slots in the library.
Our Great Church Library: Just a reminder that there is a treasure waiting for you. Our church library is located downstairs from the Fellowship Hall and contains all types of books. There is no limit on how many you may borrow nor how long you need to take for reading them. Come and look, you may be pleasantly surprised.
UPPER ROOM DEVOTIONALS: We now have regular and Large Print editions available in the narthex.
Meals on Wheels: Would you be willing to Volunteer Contact email@example.com.
Remember we now have two wheel chairs available. Leave your wheel chair at home and the usher can meet you at your vehicle with one of our wheel chairs. Feel free to worship in a wheel chair and the usher will take you back to your vehicle at the end of the service.
As a courtesy to the weekly counters and the financial secretary: It is less work for them if you use the provided envelopes for your regular offerings. If you don't have any, there are extra packets in the vestibule with a unique number. If you take a packet, please sign the log. Thanks
"No Peanut" policy: Due to significant allergies, we have adopted a "No Peanut" policy at PUMC.
This means that we ask that no peanuts or peanut products be brought to church.
Thank you for helping make our church accessible to all, including those with peanut allergies. Thank you!

What was widely hailed Friday as a breakthrough in the eurozone crisis immediately lifted markets. But observers noted a lack of detail in plans that, among other things, would allow the European Stability Mechanism to recapitalize ailing banks directly. Possible inadequacy is one potential problem, with "the ESM's capacity of 400 billion euros [after the Spanish banking bailout] ... the equivalent of about 15% of the Italian and Spanish bond markets," said Jonathan Loynes at Capital Economics.

US 3473886 A Abstract available in Claims available in Description (OCR text may contain errors) Filed April 12, 1967 STERILIZING 23 CONTACTLENS 23 INVENTOR. H.R. LEEDS Patented @ct. 21, 1969 3,473,886 MEDICAL STERHJZATIUN APPARATUS Harry R. Leeds, 250 Ashley Drive, Rochester, N.Y. 14620 Filed Apr. 12, 1967, Ser. No. 630,421 Int. Cl. A611 3/00 US. Cl. 21-91 7 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Medical sterilization apparatus comprising a scalable container for receiving the element, such as contact lens, to be sterilized. The container is provided with a forceresponsive valve which can be opened to allow a sterilizing gas to pass into the container. The gas is provided in a pressurized cannister having a force-responsive valve which can be opened to allow the gas to lead the cannister. The container and cannister valves are so constructed that when engaged, the cannister valve first causes opening of the container valve, which then causes opening of the cannister valve allowing the gas to flow directly from the cannister into the container. This invention relates to medical sterilization apparatus. There is a need in the art for portable apparatus of small size and weight by which medical elements, instruments, apparatus and the like can be readily sterilized. A case in point is contact lens, which should be removed each night and sterilized prior to reuse the following day. Present techniques of boiling in Water or immersion in sterilizing fluid are cumbersome and unreliable. Ethylene oxide is known as a sterilizing gas which when maintained in contact with the element to be sterilized for a minimum length of time will produce the degree of sterilization required, but there are unavailable in the art any convenient inexpensive apparatus for obtaining the required time of contact. The chief object of the invention is sterilization apparatus which can be manufactured at low cost and in small size and which will enable the sterilizing gas to be readily brought into total contact with the element to be sterilized and maintained in contact for the time required to obtain the degree of sterilization required. This and other objects of the invention are achieved with a novel sterilization apparatus comprising a pressurized cannister of the sterilizing gas and a scalable container for receiving the element to be sterilized, The container and cannister are provided with valves constructed to engage one another in such manner that the container valve is opened prior to opening of the cannister valve so that the sterilizing gas can flow directly from the pressurized cannister into the container. A further feature of the invention is a wall construction of the container which indicates when a sufiicient quantity of the sterilizing gas has been introduced. The invention will now be described with greater detail in connection with the accompanying drawing, wherein: FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of one form of the apparatus in accordance with the invention; FIG. 2 is a top view of the container of FIG. 1. FIG. 1 shows the container and pressurized cannister of one form of sterilization apparatus in accordance with the invention. The cannister 1 and container 20 are both shown in cross-section in the pre-engagement position. Both devices are circular-symmetric and are drawn approximately to scale. The cannister 1 comprises a metal housing 2 containing ethylene oxide sterilizing gas 3 under pressure. It includes a force-responsive valve 4 including a nozzle 5 having a tubular channel 6 for flow of the gas 3. The end of the nozzle 5 is slotted 7 to allow the gas to flow out. Movable within the channel 6 is a cylindrical piston or pin 8 which is enlarged at its top end to form an annular tapered sealing rim 9 and a recess 10 for receiving one end of a heavy compression spring 11. The sealing rim 9 bears against an annular gasket 12 of soft metal, such as lead or aluminum, which is non-permeable to the gas. The gasket 12 is secured in place by a holder 13 which is force fitted into the nozzle 5 which seals oif the end of the can 2. The holder 13 also serves to support the other end of the spring 11. A hole 14 in the holder 13 allows the gas to flow out. Grooves 15 in the inside walls of the nozzle 5 allow the gas to flow out when the pin is pushed inward. Normally, the spring 11 force urges the sealing rim 9 against the gasket 12 confining the gas within the cannister 1. Should the pin be pushed inward, the gas will flow out under pressure through the channel 6. The container 20 comprises a housing 21, for example of glass or metal, with a lid 22. The rim of the housing is threaded and the rim of the lid 22 is likewise threaded so the parts may be separated, the element, such as contact lens 23, placed within the container 20, and the lid screwed down tight sealing the interior by means of a non-permeable gasket 24 of a soft metal. Alternatively, the lenses may also be held in a plastic container which is gas permeable to facilitate handling, and the plastic container placed within the container 20. Secured as by welding to the lid 22 is a valve assembly 25. It comprises, similarly to the valve 4 of the cannister 1, a housing member 26 to which is secured as by threads or press-fitted for example a spring holder 27 whose upper rim sealingly engages a non-permeable soft metal gasket 28. Within the valve is similarly arranged a slideable piston or pin 29 having an annular sealing rim 30 also engaging the gasket 28. A light compressive spring 31 is mounted between the pin 29 and the holder 27 and urges the pin against the gasket 28 to seal off the container interior. Mounted inside the gasket is a second resilient gasket 32, which may be of rubber, for engaging the nozzle 5 on the cannister. The operation of the assembly is evident from the drawing. The cannister 1 is moved downward. The nozzle end 5, which has an outside diameter which will engage the rubber gasket 32 to seal oif the outside and an inside diameter which will receive the container pin 29, which has the same diameter as the cannister pin 8, is further dimensioned so that the pins 8 and 29 engage after the nozzle 5 engages the rubber gasket 32 and before the slotted end 7 engages the pin shoulder 33. Since the spring 31 is lighter than the spring 11, further downward movement of the cannister 1 pushes the pin 29 down opening the container valve 25. The pin body 34 will move downward until stopped by the holder 27. Further downward movement of the cannister 1 will then urge its pin 8 upward opening its valve and allowing the pressurized gas to flow from the cannister 1 through both valves directly into the container 20. The downward movement of the cannister 1 is stopped when the nozzle end 7 engages the pin shoulder 33. The gas from cannister 1 will enter and fill container 20 until the pressures in the two are equalized or the cannister pressure is continued until the desired gas pressure is established within the container 20, which can be determined by experience. A further feature of the invention is to make the lid 22 flexible so that it will bulge when the required pressure is attained giving a visual indication. This is conveniently accomplished by forming corrugations in the sheet metal lid 22 to give it the required flexibility to allow it to bulge under pressure, which corrugations are illustrated at 35 in FIG. 2. When the lid bulges, the cannister 1 is withdrawn closing first its valve 4 and then the container valve 25 resealing both devices automatically. The construction shown will maintain the contact lens 23 in the sterilizing gas atmosphere for sufiicient time to allow adequate sterilization. By manually depressing pin 29 the gas is allowed to escape from container 20 and the lid 22 can be easily removed. If gasket 28 is fabricated from a material which is permeable to the sterilizing gas, leakage through the seal will occur albeit at a slow rate, and after a period of several hours the gas pressure will reduce allowing the lid 22 to be removed for withdrawing the now-sterilized contact lens. It is understood that other sterilizing gasses, vapors, or suspensions under pressure can obviously be substituted for the ethylene oxide. If desired, a cover can be provided over the valve assembly 25 to maintain same in a clean condition. While I have described my invention in connection with specific embodiments and applications, other modifications thereof will be readily apparent to those skilled in this art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. What is claimed is: 1. Medical sterilization apparatus comprising, in combination: a scalable container including a housing and a removable lid, said container comprising a valve assembly releasibly sealing the container interior, said container valve including a movable piston having an enlarged portion with an annular sealing rim and an annular sealing gasket, the annular sealing rim of said movable piston engaging the annular sealing gasket when the piston occupies a first sealing position sealing the container interior, said piston being movable to a second open position for receiving a sterilizing medium into the container interior, container resilient means located in the container valve assembly for urging the container piston into its first sealing position; and a pressurized cannister containing a sterilizing medium under pressure, said cannister comprising a valve assembly adapted to engage the container valve and releasibly sealing the cannister interior, said cannister valve including a movable piston having an annular sealing rim and an annular sealing gasket, the annular sealing rim of said cannister piston engaging the cannister annular sealing gasket when the cannister piston occupies a first sealing position sealing off the cannister interior, said piston being movable to a second open position for releasing the sterilizing medium, cannister resilient means urging the cannister piston into its first sealing position, said cannister resilient means being stiffer than the container resilient means; and means operative when the cannister and container valves are engaged for first moving the container piston from the first to the second position and for later moving the cannister piston from the first to the second position, said last-named means including a nozzle portion on the cannister valve assembly and surrounding its piston, means for arresting the inward movement of the container piston, and gasket means for sealing the nozzle to the container valve assembly. 2.

Ron Burgundy and the gang are back. The new trailer is out, featuring a few black actors including Meagan Good. The film hits theaters on December 20.
Swag Alert: It's Pronounced 'Nguyen'
FYI, from Angry Asian Man:
The N and the G are silent and combine to form a W sound. As for the U, it sounds more like an E. Also, ignore the Y and the E. "Nguyen." What's the issue?"
And just in case you want to put a fine point on that, there are t-shirts, mugs, water bottles, and more.
Serena Williams: Sorry for Wanting to Know Why Stuebenville Victim Decided to Get Raped
Update: June 19, 2013 at 10:26pm EST: Serena Williams has apologized.
"What happened in Steubenville was a real shock for me. I was deeply saddened. For someone to be raped, and at only sixteen, is such a horrible tragedy! For both families involved - that of the rape victim and of the accused. I am currently reaching out to the girl's family to let her know that I am deeply sorry for what was written in the Rolling Stone article. What was written - what I supposedly said - is insensitive and hurtful, and I by no means would say or insinuate that she was at all to blame.
I have fought all of my career for women's equality, women's equal rights, respect in their fields - anything I could do to support women I have done. My prayers and support always goes out to the rape victim. In this case, most especially, to an innocent sixteen year old child."
Serena Williams got herself in trouble with a recent Rolling Stone interview. The story ostensibly had nothing to do with the high-profile case in which two small-town Ohio high school football players were accused of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl. But that didn't stop the star tennis player from questioning why the victim decided to drink so much that night and then speak up afterward. From Deadspin:
We watch the news for a while, and the infamous Steubenville rape case flashes on the TV—two high school football players raped a 16-year-old, while other students watched and texted details of the crime. Serena just shakes her head. "Do you think it was fair, what they got? They did something stupid, but I don't know. I'm not blaming the girl, but if you're a 16-year-old and you're drunk like that, your parents should teach you—don't take drinks from other people. She's 16, why was she that drunk where she doesn't remember? It could have been much worse. She's lucky. Obviously I don't know, maybe she wasn't a virgin, but she shouldn't have put herself in that position, unless they slipped her something, then that's different."
No doubt Williams will apologize, but it's hard to believe she could be so careless in a national interview. To be fair, seems like Serena was wrestling with complex emotions and lost her way in her explanation of them. To read more related to this, read Akiba Solomon's take from earlier this year.
Paula Deen Wants to Have Black Slaves at Her Southern Dinner Party
Well, at least Paula Deen is an honest racist. The cooking show host is currently embroiled in a million dollar lawsuit over racist behavior at her Savannah restaurant. Deen and her brother Bubba allegedly threw around the N-word and told racist and sexist jokes that, so far, she doesn't deny. But then she said something about wanting to hire black cater waiters to act as slaves at a Southern wedding, and she replied:
"The whole entire waiter staff was middle-aged black men, and they had on beautiful white jackets with a black bow tie. I mean, it was really impressive. That restaurant represented a certain era in America… after the Civil War, during the Civil War, before the Civil War… It was not only black men, it was black women… I would say they were slaves."
Totally honest. Completely crazy. White privilege, y'all.

Beautifully Edited, Totally Wrong: How Filmmakers Missed the Mark with 'Detropia'
I stumbled across the documentary 'Detropia" on Netflix a few weeks ago. In short, it was really disappointing and tough to get through. Why? Andre Seewood nails it at Shadow & Act:
The film, DETROPIA, while trying to put Detroit's decline in a larger nationwide context of the erosion of manufacturing plants and outsourcing fails to mention or put into perspective the racial tensions that have long defined Detroit, segregated the mostly Black populated city from the mostly White populated surrounding suburbs and severely undermined the Black political power base that used to govern the city.
Seewood gives a pretty exhaustive critique, which you can read in full over at Shadow & Act.
Zimmerman Pretrial Reaches Benchmark, Moves to New Phase
George Zimmerman's pretrial just inched closer to an actual hearing today when attorneys agreed on 40 jurors who made it through the publicity stage of questions. That means those 40—who attorneys believe have not been tainted by media accounts of Trayvon Martin's death and the protests that followed—can now move on to the regular line of questioning to determine a final jury pool.
The original pool was racially mixed—and some responses might surprise readers. The Orlando Sentinel reports, for example, that at least one African-American potential juror thought Zimmerman was prosecuted by network news before having his day in court.
Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in the killing of Trayvon Martin in February 2012. His case will be decided by six Seminole County, Florida jurors—with four alternates as back-ups.
Muslim New Yorkers and Civil Rights Group File Suit To Stop NYPD Spying
Asad Dandia found out last year that a man he considered a friend was actually an NYPD informant hired to spy on Dandia because he's Muslim. Today, Dandia joined with other Muslim New Yorkers and civil liberties groups at One Police Plaza in Manhattan to announce a lawsuit against New York City and the NYPD. They allege that the NYPD engaged in unconstitutional practices that singled out Muslims for profiling and surveillance. The plaintiffs say that the program has lasting and damaging effects on the day-to-day lives of Muslims in New York who fear they're spied on for no reason but their faith.
Dandia, who is 20 and a social work student at Kingsborough Community College, explained at the press conference that he was the co-founder of a charitable group called Muslims Giving Back, and that in March of last year, a man named Shamiur Rahman approached him to say that he'd like to help. Dandia became close to Rahman, inviting him at times to eat meals with his parents and sister at their home in Brooklyn. Then, in October, Rahman went public about his work as an informant. In an Associated Press story, Rahman said he now believes his work for the NYPD was "detrimental to the Constitution." The AP, which revealed the surveillance program in 2011, reported last year that:
Informants like Rahman are a central component of the NYPD's wide-ranging programs to monitor life in Muslim neighborhoods since the 2001 terrorist attacks. Police officers have eavesdropped inside Muslim businesses, trained video cameras on mosques and collected license plates of worshippers. Informants who trawl the mosques - known informally as "mosque crawlers" - tell police what the imam says at sermons and provide police lists of attendees, even when there's no evidence they committed a crime.
Today, Dandia struggled to hold back tears as he described the impact of that revelation. "I was afraid for my parents because this guy slept over at my home," he said, adding that since the informant made his identify public, Muslims Giving Back has struggled to raise money, and the group was asked not to hold meetings or fundraise at a Brooklyn mosque where it had been based.
The suit, filed by the ACLU, New York Civil Liberties Union, and the CLEAR Project, a City University of New York-based legal advocacy group, alleges that the NYPD's vast program to spy on Muslims in New York and surrounding areas violates the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause by targeting communities solely on the basis of religion. The groups also claim the program violates the plaintiffs' freedom of religion. They're asking the court to enjoin the practices outright and impose an independent, court appointed monitor to enforce the injunction. Other plaintiffs in the case include New York imams and mosques.
The NYPD and City of New York have claimed that the spying program, once called the Demographic Unit, only followed legitimate leads. But a high-ranking NYPD official said in court proceedings in a separate lawsuit that the unit has uncovered no actual plots of violence. Instead, the plaintiffs say, it has struck fear into Muslim communities.
Two Ways Arizona's Proof of Citizenship Law Might Get Reinstated
Republicans have wasted no time striking back against yesterday's US Supreme Court ruling invalidating Arizona's "proof of citizenship" voter registration ID law. Under the ruling, Arizona cannot reject federal voter registration forms from people who do not provide documented proof of their citizenship — like a driver's license, passport or birth certificate — along with it. Arizona created its own state voter registration form that did require citizenship documents, but that form can't replace the federal form, which is authorized by the National Voter Registration Act ("Motor Voter Act").
Other states have passed similar proof-of-citizenship laws, including Alabama, Georgia and Kansas, and other states have proposed the same. The SCOTUS ruling has established the NVRA-authorized federal voter registration form as the valid "back stop" for people to register with if they don't want to use state-created registration forms.
Wrote Justice Antonin Scalia for the majority opinion:
"States retain the flexibility to design and use their own registration forms, but the Federal Form provides a backstop: No matter what procedural hurdles a State's own form imposes, the Federal Form guarantees that a simple means of registering to vote in federal elections will be available."
But not so fast. Texas U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and Louisiana U.S. Senator David Vitter filed an amendment yesterday, tucked into the immigration reform bill, that would amend the Motor Voter Act so that state voter registration forms — including those requesting proof of citizenship documents — would trump the federal form.
Their amendment states: "Nothing in [the Motor Voter Act] shall be construed to preempt any State law requiring evidence of citizenship in order to complete any requirement to register to vote in elections for Federal office."
The amendment "sounds like sour grapes and hot air," said Nina Perales, Vice President of Litigation for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF), to Colorlines. "The amendment will likely fail. Congress considered and rejected a similar amendment when it enacted the NVRA in 1993, concluding that state laws that layer additional documentation requirements onto the federal form would defeat the purpose of the NVRA and uniform postcard registration."
But perhaps an amendment isn't needed. In Justice Scalia's opinion, he agreed that Arizona's law should be struck, but he also basically gave Arizona — and any other state — a roadmap for passing a proof of citizenship voter ID law despite his ruling. Scalia said that since the federal Election Assistance Commission is the only Motor Voter-authorized body that can request additional information for the federal voter registration form, that Arizona ought to appeal to it to add the requirement.
Arizona did do that in 2005 but EAC executive director Thomas R. Wilkey rejected their request. Wrote Wilkey: "While Arizona may apply Proposition 200 requirements to the use of its state registration form in Federal elections (if the form meets the minimum requirements of the NVRA), the state may not apply the scheme to registrants using the Federal Registration Form. … Arizona may not refuse to register individuals to vote in a Federal election for failing to provide supplemental proof of citizenship, if they have properly completed and timely submitted the Federal Registration Form."
That wasn't good enough, so Arizona requested a second opinion from the EAC commissioners board. The board ended up with a 2-2 vote split (due to vacant board seats, the EAC commission has not had enough members for a full quorum vote), which meant the director's decision stood. But Scalia reminded the public in his opinion yesterday that "Arizona did not challenge that agency action … by seeking an [Administrative Procedure Act] review in federal court." Scalia believes a federal court may compel the EAC to grant Arizona's request since the EAC commission can't give a full vote.
Perales said this would be "very difficult" for Arizona, though, because the EAC director already told them "No," and for the same reasons SCOTUS said "No" yesterday. But also, Arizona "would have to prove that they need to [include proof of citizenship] and that's where the facts really foil Arizona's efforts because they can not point to a single non-resident trying to vote or even registering to vote."
This Is a Really Helpful List on How Not to be a Good Ally
Writer Mia McKenzie is blowing up my newsfeed. And for good reason: this non-comprehensive list of eight ways not to be an ally is hilariously on point. Check out the snippet below:
1. Assume one act of solidarity makes you an ally forever.
Remember that time your uncle said that fucked-up stuff about "illegal" Mexican immigrants and you were all, "Actually, Uncle, California isMexico, so you need to read your history cuz that's hella racist!" That shit rocked, bruh. And it totally means that you are an Ally with a capital A for, like, ever! Done and done. Let's go get a celebratory slurpee. But you know what else? Nope. Being an ally takes waaaay more practice than that. It is a constantly active and evolving thing. I mean, imagine labeling yourself a great lover after you ate pussy once. That would be cray, wouldn't it?
2. Make everything about your feelings.
The hurt feelings that resulted when you were called out on racism/transphobia/ableism/etc. are totally more important than the impact of the actions you are being called out for in the first place. Really. I'm not even being facetious. Psych! I mean, I know it feels like your feelings are Consideration #1, but they're not. I have been guilty of this ridiculousness myself in the past. I think everybody is guilty of it sometimes. But that still doesn't make it okay. Try to remember that people who have been impacted by your racist/transphobic/ableist/etc. words or actions are the ones whose feelings need attention right then. Not yours.
3. Date 'em all.
Some folks seem to think that the quickest way to lifelong allyship status is to just date all the people who resemble those that one claims to exist in solidarity with. Anti-racist? Date all the POC! And be sure to do so exclusively and with no analysis whatsoever about fetishism, exotification, or the ways your white body might be interrupting POC space! Cuz, hey, you're an ally and stuff. Right? Ew.
4. Don't see race/gender/disability/etc.
You know what I love? When people don't see my race. There is nothing more affirming for me as a person than to have essential parts of myself and my experience completely disregarded. I mean, inside we're all the same. And there's only one race: the HUMAN race! Amirite??? Ugh. Listen. If your ability to respect someone's right to exist requires pretending that they are just like you, that's a problem. We are not all the same. And things like race, gender, disability, etc. are exactly the kinds of things that shape our lives and our experiences and make us different from one another. Being different is not the problem. The idea that being the same as you is what gives us the right to exist is the problem.

Kanye West Went to Bollywood for His 'Yeezus' Sample
Yeezus is here. Kanye West's highly anticipated sixth studio album hits (legal) digital downloads today. A version of the album already leaked late last week, so fans and critics alike have already had time to talk about it. So, is Ye' really the nucleus? Is this album a testamant to his awesomeness? Will everyone just stop hating on him?
The short answer: no.
But at the very least, the new album shows that, once again, Kanye knows how to sample a wide range of songs from different genres. And this time he went to Bollywood for one of his most narcissistic tracks, "I Am God."
The Aerogram explains:
The third track on the album, one humbly titled "I Am a God," is credited as being written by Kanye West, the duo better known as Daft Punk, and — here's where it gets interesting — Anand Bakshi and Rahul Burman, among others. This is because a sample of "Are Zindagi Hai Khel" is used in the song.
Here's the thing: people can't seem to figure out where, exactly.
While I do appreciate the fact that he isn't wearing a Sherwani and pretending to be something he isn't like — ahem — some people, it would be nice to, you know, actually be able to recognize the sample being used. Still, Yeezy is known for not only sampling a wide range of songs from different genres, but distorting them in different ways. I must confess, I've listened to both songs about a dozen times each at this point and can't figure out where exactly he hid the R.D. Burman classic.
Want to help solve the mystery? Go see more at the Aerogram.
Did J. Cole Do More Harm Than Good With His Deliberately Homophobic Lyrics?
J. Cole's new album release is being overshadowed by Kanye's new "Yeezus", but that doesn't mean that the younger rapper's latest release is without its own controversy. "Born Sinner" is Cole's second solo album, and its lead single, "Villuminati", is causing a big stir because of its provocatively homophobic lyrics. The bars in question:
My verbal AK slay faggots/ And I don't mean no disrespect whenever I say faggot, okay faggot/ Don't be so sensitive/ If you want to get fucked in the ass/ That's between you and whoever else's dick it is/ Pause, maybe that line was too far/ Just a little joke to show how homophobic you are/ And who can blame ya
In an interview last week with the Huffington Post, Cole explained what he was trying to do:
"There will soon come a day when people in general, and rap artists specifically, are going to have to answer for their past usage of the word 'faggot,' much like the Grandfathers who are ashamed that they used the word 'nigger' as kids. At a time when public acceptance of gay rights is soaring (rightfully), hip-hop culture and general are still battling with homophobia (not excluding myself). Rather than run from it I chose to attack it playfully. Those lyrics are meant to make everyone uncomfortable for the sake of this very conversation."
But Buzzfeed's Saeed Jones isn't buying it. Jones writes that Cole's song features "perhaps the most homophobic lyrics I've heard from a major artist in the last few years."
Did J. Cole completely miss the mark? Let's hear your thoughts in the comments.
'Motown the Musical' Had Its Best Week Ever
Data from the Broadway League was released on Monday and showed that the only thing we love more than Motown music is seeing those same records on Broadway. From the Washington Post:
"Motown the Musical" had its best week ever with $1,441,448 and set a new box office record at The Lunt-Fontanne Theatre.
The hit-studded show, which didn't win a Tony but got valuable screen time with a great Michael Jackson medley, has grossed over $1 million every week since previews began March 11.
That Time Questlove Went Roller-Skating With Prince on Valentine's Day
If there's one reason you need to add Ahmir 'Questlove' Thompson's new book, 'Mo Meta Blues', to your summer reading list, it's probably to read about the time that he went roller-skating with Prince. And no, this is not a Dave Chappelle skit. It's the real thing. The longtime Roots drummer recounted the adventure in an excerpt over at Slate's culture blog:
Jay-Z's Android Deal Shows How Race Colors Smartphone Market
Love him or loathe him, you can't knock Jay-Z's hustle.
The rapper turned mogul has stepped up his business game considerably over the past several years, first by owning (and then selling) his stake in his hometown Brooklyn Nets, then starting his own sports agency, and finally this week announcing a new deal with Android that could permanently alter the mobile music market.
Jay-Z is teaming up with Samsung to release his new album, "Magna Carta Holy Grail", on July 4. The new release will be free for the first one million Android users who download an app for the album. It's a unique partnership and the first of its kind. TechHive points out that for Samsung, "it's a chance to be associated with one of the coolest cats in pop culture and to showcase the company's ability to compete with iTunes radio."
But there's obviously a big upside for Jay-Z, too. Mostly, the new Android deal shows what makes him a really savvy businessman: he knows his market. And that market just so happens to be the millions of young people of color who are adopting smartphones at astonishingly high rates. It's a market in which Google has long reigned supreme, and the fruits are finally showing.
More than half of Americans — 56 percent — are now smartphone owners. And while Android is on its way to taking over the lion's share of the U.S. smartphone market, smartphone ownership has long been colored by race. Back in 2010, the Pew Internet & American Life Project did a comprehensive study of exactly who owns which kinds of cell phones. Three years later those numbers may seem a bit dated considering how quickly the industry changes, but the overall takeaways are still the same. Here's more from Pew's more recent data from this year:
Android and iPhone owners are equally common within the cell owner population as a whole, although this ratio differs across various demographic groups. Cell phone owners from a wide range of educational and household income groupings have similar levels of Android adoption, but those from the upper end of the income and education spectrum are much more likely than those with lower income and educational levels to say they own an iPhone. Indeed, fully half—49%—of cell owners with a household income of $150,000 or more say their phone is an iPhone. And African-American cell owners are more likely than whites or Latinos to say that their phone is an Android device as opposed to an iPhone.
But while people are adopting smartphones at faster rates than ever, the market for them is, like Jay-Z pointed out, the Wild, Wild West: unregulated and often predatory. Here's a snippet of reporting I did on this a couple of years ago:
mobile wireless is quickly taking shape as a second Internet, one in which people of color and users with little income are entirely dependent upon cell phone companies for access. That Internet is unregulated. Companies are free to do as they please with customers—they can control what users see, do and say online. And as the country grows more dependent on high speed Internet, the handful of companies who own its mobile version are steadily working to consolidate their power. Whether and how policy makers allow that to happen may determine who gets a voice in our 21st century economy, and who's left as its prey.

House GOP Finds Everything Wrong With Immigration Law And Tries to Make It Worse
After acting for months like the delinquent little cousin of the Senate, the House Judiciary Committee will finally take up immigration reform tomorrow when it considers a bill introduced on Friday by Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-SC. But unlike the Senate immigration reform package that would legalize millions of undocumented immigrants while also expanding border and workplace enforcement, the Gowdy bill does only the later, and in the worst way. The SAFE Act, as it's called, would vastly expand immigration enforcement programs, curtail legal rights of non-citizens and authorize state and local law enforcement to act like immigration agents whenever they want to.
"The SAFE Act is a callous assault on immigrants and will just lead to more detentions and deportations," says Silky Shah of Detention Watch Network. "It would allow for the prolonged detention of thousands of immigrants and require expansion of detention."
On it's face, the bill looks like the kind of grandstanding for which the House GOP has become well known. While the SAFE Act won't become law on it's own—the Senate would never pass the thing—it's nonetheless positioned to pull the whole immigration reform process drastically to the right. That's because if the bill passes the House it could be among the pieces of legislation that get thrown into a House-Senate conference committee assigned to work out the differences between the two chambers' immigration reform visions and spit out a shared bill for vote. Any process that involves adding the SAFE Act to the already compromised, enforcement heavy Senate bill, is likely to prodice a deeply punishing bill.
Here's some of what the SAFE Act does:
- Hands states and localities the power to pass and enforce their own criminal and civil penalties for immigration violations. The provision is in direct opposition to the Supreme Court's ruling last year over Arizona's SB 1070.
- Authorize all local police to act as immigration agents, essentially nationalizing the 287(g) program, which has been widely criticized for encouraging racial profiling and eroding police-community trust.
- Lets local cops detain immigrants in their jails for up to two weeks and then requires ICE to lock up all immigrants that local cops detain.
- Expands the kinds and categories of crimes that make people mandatorily deportable, without recourse to a judge. This would include people the government "has reason to believe" have ever been a member of a gang, even without a conviction.
In all, the bill is a wish list of far-right immigration enforcement provisions—the very kinds of things that much of the GOP establishment now says the party needs to move away from. The GOP leadership, including House Judiciary Chair Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-VA, have been quick to say that this bill is just one of several that the committee will work on in coming weeks, including a legalization program and a new guest worker bill. The four bills are meant to come together as a sort of piecemeal immigration fix.
If the House fails to pass a single "comprehensive" immigration bill, these laws are likely to get thrown into a House-Senate committee. And here's the thing: the Senate bill is already brimming with enforcement provisions including nearly $7 billion in new cash for border enforcement and additional funding to prosecute people who cross the border. It won't be a pretty picture if that framework moves right.
Internet Guru Baratunde Thurston Talks About Life Without the Internet
Most of us live our lives in public. Whether it's Twitter, Facebook, email, or Instagram, the vast majority of us are way too attached to our gadgetry, and sometimes that addiction comes at the expense of healthy, in-person social interaction. But there's hope. Fans of smart race writing will see a familiar face on the cover of the latest issue of Fast Company: Baratunde Thurston. The comedian and New York Times Best Selling author of "How to Be Black" on how he unplugged from the Internet and regained his sanity.
Here's a snippet:
Not surprisingly, there is lots of advice online about how to move your existence offline. Some of it was actually useful. For instance, there are plenty of good recipes for hot toddies, so I grabbed a couple. There are a plethora of posts on digital detox, including one called "How to Take an Email Sabbatical," by Microsoft researcher danah boyd, who goes so far as to auto-delete all inbound emails and send an auto-reply informing senders "to resend their message when I return." I couldn't commit to that. The FOMO (fear of missing out) in me is strong. What if Kerry Washington (the Scandalstar, whom I have somehow never met) wrote me confessing her love and I missed it because of some extremist view on vacation emails? To ensure an inbox-free vacation, my chief of staff would log in every few days to check that I didn't miss anything urgent such as a family emergency, holiday party invite—or that message from Kerry.
It's a good read, and maybe a model for those of us who could use summer sabattical from the Interwebs. Read the entire thing here.

A Brief Look at Dwyane Wade's Gender-Bending NBA Playoff Fashion
Dwyane Wade is one of the NBA's best players, playing for what is arguably the NBA's best team, and he probably has the league's boldest fashion sense.
The Miami Heat superstar hasn't been shy about his aspirations to be a fashion icon, but he's definitely stepped it up to the next level this season. Rod McCullom pointed out at just after Game 4 of this year's NBA Finals that Wade rocked capri's (again), a pair of Louboutins, and a cute little red purse. Behold after the jump:
3 Random Things You Probably Didn't Know About 'Fruitvale Station' Director Ryan Coogler
Oakland writer Chinaka Hodge recently caught up with Oakland filmmaker Ryan Coogler and good things happened. In a piece for San Francsico Magazine's Writers on Writers series, Hodge interviewed Coogler about what it's like to make art about their hometown. Coogler's highly anticipated directorial debut, "Fruitvale Station", is set to be released next month. It's a really good interview, and you should read it and send it to all of your friends.
But what struck me most about the interview were the types of intimate details that you get when hometown folks get together and talk about their work. Things like:
1. Ryan Coogler brings his own PB&J sandwhiches to fancy places.
So, it's 1:01 p.m. on a Monday. We sit in the cinematic lap of luxury, with all of the trappings one would expect from Lucas et al. But instead of grandly parading around the sprawling campus, we post up in a quiet cafeteria, nearly unseen, with Coog munching the humble PB&J he brought from home.
2. Favorite 2pac album? Me Against the World.
I press further: What's your favorite Pac album? Coog furrows his brown-skinned brow as if I have asked him to pick a favorite child or most preferred appendage. He finally chooses: Me Against the World. That question is like a hood litmus test, and Ryan shows his true nature, picking the work that best epitomizes Shakur's time in Oakland
3. He's getting married!
Coog, age 26, has been preparing for the July national release of the film under the new name Fruitvale Station, planning his upcoming nuptials to his absolutely stunning fiancée, and somehow maintaining an admirable state of calm.

Greater Washington banks face shakeup in Russell stock index
- Mark Holan
- Staff Reporter- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Other
Clark said inclusion in the index is worth up to 20 percent lift in stock price, while removal can drive down the price just as much. Facing potential removal, Clark and other bank insiders have been busy buying up shares of the bank's stock, more than 30,000 shares since May 1. Clark said it's a sign of their continued confidence in the bank.
Gary Shook, Middleburg Bank's president and CEO, echoed Clark's sentiments. "We lobbied not to be in it," he said. "When you're last in, you'll be the first out. It was flattering to be in it, but we're just fine being out of it."
Mark Holan covers the economy and money — banking, finance, private equity, corporate accountability and professional services.

It's too recent to put in any proper perspective, our tendency to exaggerate what's new and fresh destined to drift into hyperbole. Instead, it's best to think about Borussia Dortmund players climbing fences to celebrate with fans; the dejected slouches of Málaga's players scattered across the pitch at the Westfalenstadion sat in testimony of what'd just happened. BVB had completed one of the most remarkable comebacks in Champions League history. Instead of perspective, it was best to focus on the moment.
Down 2-1 on aggregate as the clock spun past 90:00, the reigning German champions needed two goals to overturn Málaga's away goals tiebreaker. Over the course of three nebulous minutes that ticked off as the stadium clock stood still, BVB got them. Goal mouth scrambles pushed home by Marco Reus and Felipe Santana in the 91st and 93rd minutes saved Jurgen Klopp's side, giving Dortmund a miraculous 3-2 win that vaults them into UEFA Champions League's semifinals.
The stakes may not have been as high, but the method was reminiscent of the 1999 final. That's when Manchester United went extra time trailing Bayern Munich 1-0. With a European title on the line, substittue Teddy Sheringham broke through in the 91st minute before fellow sub Ole Gunner Solskjaer's 93rd minute winner. Now United's two stoppage time goals in Barcelona are the standard for European comebacks.
Today, it was the Germans that were on the right side of fate, though in buildup to the comeback, it looked like it would Málaga keeper Willy Caballero that would wear the cape. The man who stonewalled Dortmund a week ago made spectacular late stops on Marco Reus and Mario Götze, giving the impression destiny was on Málaga's side. Thanks to goals from Joaquín and Eliseu, the Andalusians looks set to go through, even if Eliseu's apparent insurance should have been whistled for offside.
Trailing was an apropos position for a Dortmund side that had put themselves behind the game for much of the match. While many expected BVB to come out with an energy that put aside last week's 0-0, Dortmund instead allowed Málaga to establish a comfortable place in the match. When the Spaniards went up on 25 minutes, it seemed the Miguel Pellegrini-inspired scripts espousing opportunism and resiliency could cast another debutant in the semifinals, even if Robert Lewandowski pulled BVB even by halftime.
But Málaga had their crucial away goal, and when Eliseu guided Júlio Baptista's ball into goal in the 82nd minute, Dortmund seemed out. Ten minutes and two goals seemed too much to ask from a young team whose naiveté was allowing Málaga to steal this tie.
Perhaps, in the end, that naiveté saved them. Dortmund had no reason to expect they could come back. Not after scoring once in 180 minutes. Not after Caballero had hinted at his impenetrability. Not after Götze and Reus and Lewandowki showed themselves incapable of the razor's edge finished they'd need to beat Málaga's keeper. Their edge in talent neutralized over two legs, BVB had no reason but blind ignorance to think a miracle was in the cards.
Ultimately, it was sure will, not precise finishing, that moved Dortmund into the final four. A scramble in the box after a Caballero save allowed Reus to finish from four yards out. Two minutes later, with Caballero on his backside, a shot deflected off a goalline-sitting, potentially offside Felipe Santana put BVB into the final four.
It wasn't supposed to end like this for Málaga. They'd executed their plan perfectly, holding out at home only to pounce in Germany, along the way collecting two valuable away goals. Taking advantage of their inexperienced if more skilled adversaries, they'd embodied their coach's vision, even if they needed some goalkeeping heroics to do so.
After 184 minutes, it wasn't enough. It took one of the most remarkable comebacks in tournament history to do it, but Málaga was sent out. And Dortmund, with the potentially emboldening experience of having their Champions League lives flash before their eyes, move on to the semifinals.
