SUPPORT OF REPUBLICAN PARTY TICKET URGED DEMOCRATS FAIL TO KEEP FAITH NEGRO CANDIDATES AND ENTIRE REPUBLICAN TICKET DESERVE TO WIN, AND TODD VINDICATED AN EDITORIAL The Leader appreciates the reproduction of our editorial in the part, by the Kentucky Irish Americans, which related to John Walker, and its expression about the publisher as being highly independent in his political thinking. It is reprinted by us on the editorial page of this issue. The Kentucky Irish American is edited by John J. Barry, treasurer of the Louisville and Jeffersonville County Democratic organization, and one of the few Democratic leaders now left, who during the years of our militant advocacy of independent voting of the Negro in Kentucky, has been a friend of the race, interested in the Negro receiving recognition commensurate with his service and contribution to the Democratic party. Mr. Barry, who unfortunately has been ill during the political campaign now before us, is nevertheless not the whole Democratic Party, and his thinking, where the Negro is concerned, is not so easily put into action. We do not now have in the councils of the Democratic Party, practical, far seeing men of the calibre of the late Col. M. J. Brennan, who made up the Democratic political partnership of Brennan and Barry, and who if living today, we perhaps would have no need to urge Negroes in Louisville and Jefferson County to go to the polls, Tuesday, November 8, and vote the straight Republican ticket. The Leader also appreciates the statement made by a Negro Democratic leader that the fact that we had not printed a political editorial on our front page in 20 years was quite significant. The fact is, the election which is to decide the party or individuals who are to guide the destiny of the city government of which we and all other Negroes are a part and parcel, is with us a most serious question. It is such a business as needs the attention and guidance of men of the highest character, finest brains and of unquestionable integrity. In that regard, The Leader for the first time in years, places its political editorials on its front page, and does the rare thing of advocating the support of a straight party ticket without reservations. We do this without fear or favor, and with the realization (Continued on page 4) CROWDS HEAR STREET SPEAKERS MORAN, TUCKER, WALKER FOR GOP REPORTED CONNECTIONS OF DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY JUDGE REVEALED The speaking end of the political pot got under way to a boiling point last week, with the Republican spell binders bearing the touch and heading the way out in the open air and on the street corners. It was like-unto the old fashioned stump-speaking, which we still see in New York's Harlem in and out of season--for there is always something for the street orators to talk about in Harlem. But Louisville's Negro section around West and Walnut is not too far out of line with points in New York's Harlem--and early last week the Republican speakers were drawing such crowds as have not been seen at the "street corner rallies" since the twenties, when Negroes were voting Republican in solid blocs, and it was easy to get a big one-way crowd. More than that, exclusive of the candidates the crowds last weeks were greeted by an imposing lot of speakers, who clearly and convincingly advocated the Republican cause in Louisville and Jefferson County. Among them were J. A. Moran, C. Eubank Tucker and John Walker, formerly recognized as Democratic leaders. Moran Answers Crumlin The Republican cause was advocated by capable Negro speakers, without injection of personal issues and leveling to the slinging of mind. In the course of his speech, however, J. A. Moran did take time to straighten out James A. Crumlin, attorney and Democrat campaigner, who on the previous night had given himself credit for recently coming to Louisville and getting things done for the Negro in a manner which had not before caught fire in the cold brains of Negro leaders of the past, and Moran to set to record, the fact that statements attributed to Mayor Charles P. Farnsley, and charges made (Continued on page 4) U. OF L. TRUSTEES STANDING STILL Those citizens who had reached the conclusion that following the discussion of the question of admission of Negro students to the University of Louisville as graduate students at the Pendennis Club, Monday, the bars would let down and that the Louisville institution would fall in line with the University of Kentucky, were quite disappointed when they got the news of the results, Tuesday morning. It was the sixth meeting which the trustees had held on the subject, since the trustees of the University of Kentucky decided to admit colored students to the graduate schools as a result of a decision handed down by Federal Judge H. Church Ford, on the question of equal education despite the 1904 Day Law, which prohibits Negroes and whites from attending school together in Kentucky. Several white and colored persons attended the University summer school without hurt, harm or legal bother. On the other hand 45 faculty members at the University of Louisville drafted a statement to the trustees of the local institution which favored the admission of Negroes to the college. But withal, following the (Continued on page 4) AUTO ACCIDENT VICTIM DIES Lexington, Ky., Nov. 3. - Mrs. Addie Brown, who was injured in an automobile accident, with Rev. H. W. Green, pastor of St. Paul A.M.E. Church, and Rev. Forest Jones of Danville, near Madisonville, died Sunday from internal injuries. Funeral services for Mrs. Brown were held Wednesday.

Cameron Jibril Thomaz (born September 8, 1987), better known by the stage name Wiz Khalifa, is an American rapper. He released his debut album, Show and Prove, in 2006, and signed to Warner Bros. Records in 2007. His Eurodance-influenced single, "Say Yeah", received urban radio airplay, charting on the Rhythmic Top 40 and Hot Rap Tracks charts in 2008.[1] Khalifa parted with Warner Bros. and released his second album, Deal or No Deal, in November 2009. He released the mixtape Kush and Orange Juice as a free download in April 2010; he then signed with Atlantic Records.[2] He is also well known for his debut single for Atlantic, "Black and Yellow", which peaked at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. His debut album for the label, Rolling Papers, was released on March 29, 2011.[3]

Khalifa was born in Minot, North Dakota on September 8, 1987 to a mother and a father serving in the military.[1][4] His parents divorced when Khalifa was about three years old. His parents' military service caused him to move regularly: Khalifa lived in Germany, the United Kingdom, and Japan before settling in Pittsburgh where he attended Taylor Allderdice High School.[1][4]
His stage name is derived from khalifa, an Arabic word meaning "successor", and wisdom, which was shortened to Wiz when Khalifa was a young boy .[5] Khalifa stated to spinner.com that the name also came from being called "young Wiz 'cause I was good at everything I did, and my granddad is Muslim, so he gave me that name; he felt like that's what I was doing with my music." He got his stage name tattooed on his 17th birthday.[6][7] He includes Jimi Hendrix, Camp Lo, The Notorious B.I.G. and Bone Thugs-n-Harmony among his influences.[8]
Rostrum Records president Benjy Grinberg first heard about Wiz Khalifa in 2004 when the rapper's contribution to a mixtape of various new Pittsburgh artists attracted his interest.[9] When Grinberg finally met the 16-year-old artist, he immediately decided he wanted to work with him, later telling HitQuarters: "Even though he wasn't all the way developed you could just tell that he was a diamond in the rough, and that with some polishing, guidance and backing he could become something special."[9] Khalifa signed to the label shortly after and began a seven year period of artist development.[9]
Khalifa released his first mixtape, Prince of the City: Welcome to Pistolvania, in 2005. The mixtape paved the way for his first full length album entitled Show and Prove in 2006. Khalifa was declared an "artist to watch" that year in Rolling Stone magazine.[10][11]
In 2007, Khalifa signed to Warner Bros. Records and released two mixtapes through Rostrum Records: Grow Season, hosted by DJ Green Lantern and released on July 4, 2007, and Prince of the City 2, released on November 20, 2007. His debut Warner Bros. single "Say Yeah" reached number 25 on the Billboard Rhythmic Top 40 music chart and number 20 on Billboard's Hot Rap Tracks. The song samples "Better Off Alone" by Alice Deejay. Khalifa's vocals from "Say Yeah" appear near the end of Pittsburgh mash up producer Girl Talk's 2008 album, Feed the Animals, over music from Underworld's "Born Slippy", Usher's "Love in This Club", and the Cure's "In Between Days".[12] Khalifa appeared with The Game, David Banner and Play-n-Skillz at U92's Summer Jam at the USANA Amphitheatre in West Valley City, Utah on August 2, 2008.[13] Khalifa released the mixtapes Star Power in September 2008, and Flight School in April 2009 on Rostrum Records.
Khalifa parted ways with Warner Bros. Records in July 2009 after numerous delays in releasing his planned debut album for the label, First Flight. Khalifa stated to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that, "I learned a lot during my time there and matured as an artist during the process. I'm happy to be moving on with all of my material and having the chance to be in control of my next moves".[14] Khalifa appeared with Girl Talk, Modey Lemon, Donora, Grand Buffet, and Don Caballero at the Amphitheatre at Station Square in Pittsburgh on July 31, 2009, where he announced that his relationship with Warner Bros. was over.[15]
Continuing his association with Rostrum Records, Khalifa released the single "Teach U to Fly", and the mixtape How Fly, a collaboration with New Orleans rapper Curren$y, on August 9, 2009.[14] Khalifa introduced a more melodic style on the mixtape, alternating between singing and rapping. He opened for Wu-Tang Clan member U-God at the 2009 CMJ Music Marathon in New York City.[16] Khalifa released the mixtape Burn After Rolling on November 2, 2009, where he raps over familiar beats from other artists, including the songs "If I Were A Boy" and "Diva" by Beyoncé, "Walking on a Dream" by Empire of the Sun, "Luchini AKA This Is It" by Camp Lo, and "Best I Ever Had" by Drake.[17] Khalifa released his second album, Deal or No Deal, on November 24, 2009.[18]
Khalifa performed at Emo's in Austin, Texas in March 2010 as part of the 2010 South by Southwest Music Festival.[19] He appeared on the cover of XXL magazine that same month, for the magazine's annual list of Top 10 Freshman, which included Donnis, J. Cole, Pill, Freddie Gibbs, and Fashawn. Wiz Khalifa was named 2010 "Rookie Of The Year" by "The Source", with alongside Rick Ross, "The Man Of The Year".[20] He toured with rapper Yelawolf on a 20-date tour, the Deal Or No Deal Tour.[21] Khalifa released the free mixtape Kush and Orange Juice for download on April 14, 2010. Due to Khalifa's devoted grassroots fan base, the mixtape became the No. 1 trending topic on Twitter with the hash tag #kushandorangejuice, and "Kush and Orange Juice download" ranked No. 1 on Google's hot search trends.[22]
Citing music industry insiders, New York magazine wrote that Khalifa signed with Atlantic Records in April 2010, although the rapper did not confirm it.[23] He stated to AllHipHop in June 2010 that he was working on a new album, but was weighing his options and had not yet decided on a label to distribute it.[24] Khalifa confirmed to MTV on July 30 that he was signing an Atlantic Records deal.[25]
Khalifa was featured in a remix and video for the 2010 Rick Ross single "Super High", alongside Curren$y.[26] He guested on the mixtape Grey Goose, Head Phones, and Thirsty Women by St. Louis rapper M.C,[27] and was featured on the track "The Breeze (Cool)" on rapper Wale's August 2010 mixtape More About Nothing.[28] Khalifa was named MTV's Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010, winning with nearly 70,000 votes, and beating out finalists Nicki Minaj, J. Cole, Travis Porter, and Diggy Simmons.[29]
Khalifa appeared at the Soundset 2010 festival in May 2010 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, alongside Method Man & Redman, Del the Funky Homosapien and Hieroglyphics, Atmosphere, Murs, Cage, and others.[30] He also performed at the 2010 Rock the Bells festival, along with hip hop veterans Wu-Tang Clan, Snoop Dogg, Lauryn Hill, A Tribe Called Quest, Rakim, KRS-One, Jedi Mind Tricks and Slick Rick.[31] Khalifa declined an invitation to tour with rapper Drake and launched his own "Waken Baken" tour, a 50-city national tour with rapper Yelawolf. His official DJ on the tour was DJ Bonics.[32] The tour, scheduled to last from September to November 2010, has, as of October, sold out every venue.[8] On November 2010, during his "Waken Baken" tour at East Carolina University, Wiz Khalifa was arrested for possession and trafficking of marijuana. He was then released the next morning after a $300K bail, and resumed his tour. Khalifa performed in a cypher during the 2010 BET Hip-Hop Awards. He recited his verse from the song, "The Check Point", from his mixtape with Curren$y, How Fly.[33]
Khalifa released "Black and Yellow", his first single for Rostrum/Atlantic, produced by Stargate, which has received radio airplay.[8][34] The single was peaked at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100; the title of the song refers to the colours of the City of Pittsburgh.[35] Khalifa released his debut album with Atlantic Records in 2011.[36] He appeared with Curren$y on the track "Scaling the Building" on producer Ski Beatz' 2010 album, 24 Hour Karate School.[37] Khalifa's record label is Taylor Gang Records, named after his love of Chuck Taylor All-Stars,[8] and Taylor Allderdice High School in Pittsburgh, PA, where he graduated from.
On March 29, 2011, Khalifa released his first studio album, Rolling Papers. The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 197,000 copies in the United States.[38] Shortly afterward on March 31, 2011 Wiz Khalifa performed at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia as part of the school's annual Dooley's Weekend.[39] On June 26, 2011, Khalifa was nominated and won Best New Artist at the BET Awards of 2011.[40] Khalifa collaborated with British rapper Tinie Tempah whom Tinie announced in an interview with Rolling Stone that his next single is to be called "Till I'm Gone" and would feature Wiz Khalifa and is to be produced by Stargate.[41][42] The single and the video song were released at the end of June 2011.[43] On April 11, 2012 Khalifa announced that he will release his second studio album titled "Only Nigga In First Class" but will be released to mainstream markets as the abbreviated O.N.I.F.C. [11][44][45]
Thomaz proposed to model Amber Rose on March 1, 2012 showing off the ring on Twitter.[46] He is personal friends with Snoop Dogg, Juicy J, Yelawolf, and fellow Pittsburgh rapper Mac Miller.[47]
In March 2012, Thomaz purchased a 2.8 private wooded acres with a 3,891-square-foot residence in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, a small community southwest of Pittsburgh. The residence includes 5-bedroom, 4-bath eco-friendly, Brazilian Koa floors, stainless steel appliances, a separate guest house, and a lavish master suite with high ceilings.[48] He currently resides there with his fiancée Amber Rose.
Thomaz is open about his use of cannabis, and he has claimed in many interviews that he spends $10,000 a month on cannabis, and also smokes daily.[49]
He is an avid supporter and big fan of all sports teams from his town, mostly the Pittsburgh Steelers, and many others like NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins, MLB's Pittsburgh Pirates, Arena Football League's Pittsburgh Power, and also the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks.
In September 6, 2012 at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards he and his fiancée Amber Rose announced they are expecting their first child together.[50]

UEFA Champions League: Who's next?
The official draw for the quarter-finals of the Champions League will be midday on Friday from Nyon, Switzerland, but let's take a sneak preview at FC Barcelona's next potential opponents. Remember there are now no selection limitations whatsoever, so everyone is as likely a rival as the others.
1. Real Madrid: Personally, I hope not. For only the reason that I find these games have become over-saturated – too many, too often. But if that is the draw, Barça will have a challenge on their hands with Real Madrid clearly among the favorites. Mourinho is out of Madrid come June, but he would prefer to leave with another trinket for his personal collection and with the league out of grasp, all merengue focus is on the decima.
Opposition Ranking: 1, i.e. they will prove Barça's most unfavorable draw. Madrid has had the upper hand this season with only 1 defeat in the 6 meetings, and aside from the fact Madrid are a top class side, this match up has the potential to turn nasty with the pressure likely to resurface a lot of that bad blood Mourinho engineered his first season.
2. Málaga: Manuel Pellegrini is showing this season again what a top manager he is. Well actually he never has slipped up, irrespective of what the Real Madrid media like to peddle. Despite losing their key player Santi Cazorla over a chaotic off-season, Pellegrini has drilled his side into a complete team, with an extremely stingy defense that quickly evolves into intricate attack. Isco is a proper player as well.
Opposition Ranking: 7, i.e. I rank this the most favorable draw. In the 3 encounters this season, Barça has managed to score 9 goals, 7 of those on our travels. Being in this competition is still a new experience for most of this squad and traditionally FC Barcelona have enjoyed favorable results against Málaga.
3. Bayern Munich: Many pundits' favorites. Running away with the Bundesliga title, Munich are a force in 2012/13. Even more impressive than their 20 point league lead is the fact they have conceded just 10 goals in 25 games. However, they have been more porous in the Champions League. Yes, Arsenal did just beat them 0-2 in Germany, but that could make them even more dangerous. Like Barça often need and profit from, this defeat has created an uproar of criticism and will provide a wake up call. Bayern's starting 11 is stellar but also benefit from excellent depth with Mario Gomez, Arjen Robben, and Swiss starlet Xherdan Shaqiri waiting in the wings.
Opposition Ranking: 2. No getting away from it, Bayern will represent a true clash of titans.
4. Juventus: The Old Lady are back in a competition they once dominated. Conte has injected tangible passion, intensity, and purpose into a side that do not forget went undefeated the entire 2011/12 Serie A season. They have a terrific starting 11 with Gigi Buffon guarding the net, the hard working Lichsteiner on the right, Italian trio Barzagli, Bonnuci and Chiellini completing the defense, Pirlo running the show in the middle supported by Marchisio, Asamoah and the tough Chilean Vidal, ending upfront with the trickery of Mirko Vucinic and mercurial ability of Giovinco. Off the bench they also can bring on prospect Paul Pogba, the master of wondergoals Fabio Quagliarella, and promising Italian poacher Alessandro Matri.
Opposition Ranking: 3. Juventus will make a truly intriguing matchup. They play possession based football but with more directness and pace. In fact, aside from FC Barcelona, Juventus had the highest average possession statistic in the 2011/12 season. Juventus are hungry, motivated, and equipped.
5. Borussia Dortmund: What a truly exciting team that play wonderful football. Manager Jurgen Klupp is the real deal. They will relinquish their German crown after two successive league triumphs, but the focus has been on Europe this season, with the side thinking this could be the last real chance for a golden group of players to capture the ultimate crown. Key striker Robert Lewandowski appears to be on the move in June, so this is seen as the moment. There is special talent in this group in the likes of Mario Gotze, Marco Reus, and Mats Hummels, but they are much more about the collective unit than the individuals, that is their strength.
Opposition Ranking: 4. Maybe many will have had them higher, but my reasoning is that Dortmund are very similar to Barça in style and philosophy, and that usually works in FC Barcelona's favor. Dortmund are used to dominating the ball so defensively and are not the force of someone like a Chelsea that base their game on having very little of the ball. Yet, they have electric counter attacking speed on the wings with both the defenders and midfielders instructed to break out. Forget their ranking of 4, Dortmund will prove meaningful opposition and a sexy matchup that many are hoping will happen.
6. Galatasaray: A Turkish side is back in the quarterfinals for the first time since 2001. Gala is as all Turkish sides are, especially those under the stewardship of legendary manager Faih Terim, full of passion and industry. Turkish striker Burak Yilmaz is having a terrific season, tied top scorer in the Champions League, and he is supported by Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder. Traditionally Turkish sides rely on their home field advantage to succeed, but Gala has been more impressive on the road with wins in Portugal (Benfica) and Germany (Schalke).
Opposition Ranking: 6. It won't be an easy match, but it's definitely one FC Barcelona would welcome in this field. Barça has a strong history against Turkish sides, winning 5 of 8 total encounters and only losing once. If a performance even 70% as good as Tuesday's can be repeated, there is reason to have confidence in this matchup.
7. Paris Saint-Germain: I have made it a point this season to watch some PSG games in Ligue 1. They play some seriously uninspiring, mostly dreadful football on the eye. But, when their starting 11 hits the screen, you can not help but be impressed. It's a who's who of names, very Championship Manager style, with Maxwell, Van der Wiel, Alex, Sakho, Thiago Silva, and then the attacking monsters Lavezzi, Pastore, Moura, Menez and of course Ibrahimovic, who digs them out of hole after hole. David Beckham is there also, and while he is mostly now a name, he still provides a great cross. Watch out for talented midfielder Verratti, not one of the star signings but he dictates the tempo and could be as vital as anyone in the side.
Opposition Ranking: 5. PSG look at times like too many chefs in the kitchen. It always sounds great to create a team of super stars, but in reality they do not always make a cohesive unit and that is very much what PSG look like at times. This group of players are still very new to one another and while the names shine, their performances very often do not. This is the case particularly with Pastore and Menez, while Moura is hugely injury prone in addition to still very fresh from the Brazilian league. Again, none of the 7 possible teams will be easy, PSG certainly won't be, but in the field FC Barcelona will take an inexperienced work in progress over the seasoned veterans.
However the draw goes, this is a genuinely exciting final eight. Tune in to totalBarça tomorrow for the actual draw results. And while you're waiting, voice your opinion in our official poll here.

It's a tragedy that this hostility and antagonism between Cuba and the U.S. has gone on for 45 years. The island is only 90 miles off our shores. If the anti-Castro fanatics had immigrated to Nebraska instead of vote-rich Florida, the embargo would have ended years ago.
Robert Emmerling
Miami Shores
Max Castro, Fidel Castro -- what's the difference? When Max Castro says "it wasn't supposed to be this way," he sounds like a bride left at the altar. His bias, which is not so different from the comandante in Cuba with whom he shares his last name, is strikingly apparent in the hodgepodge of distorted facts and conjecture he calls an article.
While Mr. Castro makes a very compelling yet skewed argument, he fails to mention those things that would otherwise soften his position. Many of the people protesting these new restrictions are people who own businesses that specialize in sending remittances and packages to Cuba. Castro avoids mentioning that family travel is a widely abused system serving as a way to get products into Cuba for businesses, businesses that must maintain political silence to continue operations under the tyrannical Fidel Castro regime.
A large percentage of Cubans who go to the island regularly are not visiting their abuelita; they are mulas or mulos, people who are paid to take supplies to dollar stores on the island. Another large percentage of travelers to Cuba are people who practice sexual tourism. They go to Cuba because instead of paying for a prostitute in, say, Paris, where it will cost them a significant amount of money, they can go to Cuba and pay five dollars for a good time with a Cuban girl who is barely a woman.
Max Castro states that the cultural and educational exchanges recently curtailed were popular, but he doesn't explain why they've been so popular, especially with the regime in Havana. The regime is getting some of its population educated in the U.S. while we are getting the raw deal of having American college students conned into thinking they can expand their horizons by going to Cuba to "get educated" -- that is, studying The Communist Manifesto.
He also mentions that U.S. business and agriculture lobbies have come out against the embargo because they have a vested interest in Cuba. For those who are too ignorant to figure it out, their vested interest is money! They don't care about the humanitarian situation under Fidel Castro's regime; they care only about their bottom line.
Why doesn't Max Castro see himself as the zealot? What do you call a man who is constantly advocating trade with the regime in Havana? What do you call a man who has never, to my knowledge, condemned the tyrannical Castro regime? I call him a left-wing fanatic.
While he believes that we in el exilio, by supporting these measures, are handing to Fidel Castro the mantle of the defender of the Cuban family, we are not. We are showing the world that Fidel is the true divider, the one whose actions over the past 45 years have made these sanctions a necessary part of political life.
Keith Fernández
Pembroke Pines
The embargo has made millionaires of some greedy exiles: Max Castro's fine article detailing control of U.S. foreign policy by a small number of Cuban-American zealots missed one thing: the zealots' current financial advantage in maintaining the embargo.
Many of these pre-1975 Cuban immigrants dominate the Caribbean sugar, rum, and tobacco industries. If the economic embargo against Cuba is lifted, their near monopolies and tax breaks would end with the influx of better, cheaper Cuban products.
These same hard-line Cubans also receive huge payments from the CIA and the U.S. State Department to produce anti-Castro propaganda. As Max Castro suggests, this embargo is not just about the grudges of some elderly Cubans; it is also about their greed.
Edward Yates
Larkspur, California
Open the gates and let America rush in: I ran across a link to Max Castro's "Triumph of the Zealots" on BuzzFlash.com. I must be among the 85 percent of Americans who believe that our nation's official policy toward Cuba is, in a word, silly.
Let us instead crush Fidel Castro with kindness.
Andrew Grabiec
Los Lunas, New Mexico
Why do you think the Diaz-Balarts are such hardliners? The outrageous, unconstitutional, and definitely not conservative Cuba travel ban is not just a political ploy. In its latest form it also constitutes gratuitous cruelty, implemented for the sake of a family feud.
Family feud? That's right. Ultra-hard-line Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart and his sidekick brother Mario are cousins of Fidel Castro! Didn't know that? Just do some Googling! If they could push a button and destroy Cuba and everyone in it to get rid of their hated kinfolk, I'm sure they'd do it.
They have no reason to visit there, nor would they dare. So why should they care about separating lonely, grieving, even terminally ill family members? They're a disgrace, and so is Dubya for catering to them.

Well, if your BIOS is not able to recognize your usbdisk you can use an initrd (Initial RAM disk) to load the usb modules before you mount the real partition (sda1) and use the initrd option of grub. I have done this to boot a Fedora Core 3 on my laptop from an external usbdisk but I used a specific howto and mkinitrd for that distro, but I think it's possible to find a similar solution also for LFS. Try to document yourself about initrd (man initrd or less /usr/src/linux-`uname -r`/Documentation/initrd.txt) and search the net about how to boot linux from an usb storage. I'll try myself to solve this on weekend and if I can find a working solution I'll post here. HTH, Alessandro Alocci

NEW YORK — The chic urban spaces that Tom Ford and interior architect Bill Sofield created for Gucci, like its Fifth Avenue flagship, offer a study in late-Nineties cool. The look — glass, marble, plush carpeting and stainless steel with nods to Neutra's architecture — showed just how unstuffy and modern luxury stores could be.
Even the best design concepts need a little freshening up now and then, though, which is why Ford and Sofield have collaborated on a new formula to be unveiled this weekend at the Gucci store opening at Madison Avenue and 69th Street.
"It's a little less slick," Ford says of the new look. "In the mid to late Nineties, when we were developing the first Gucci store concepts, fashion was very slick. I think fashion is less that way now."
The Madison Avenue shop, with 7,000 square feet of selling space, is the first store completed in the new style, although the flagships in both Milan and Paris are being refurbished in the latest look as well.
"I love our Gucci stores," Ford said during a phone interview from his office in London, "but the design is now about six years old. I wanted to update that look without obliterating it. The architectural vocabulary we've developed for Gucci, which is very long, low and horizontal, is a strong one. It's the vocabulary we used in rebuilding the brand, so it's important to keep it and, with the new design, I didn't want to instantly date all of our other stores all over the world."
Though those Gucci classics of high-gloss lacquer and hints of stainless steel crop up in the store, the new look is created by design touches like dark-striped wood paneling, poured concrete displays and a dark, sleek hematite ceiling over the central staircase. Rectilinear bronze glass chandeliers hang from the second floor, while a curtain on thin, brown acrylic rods dangles in front of the windows upstairs.
Ford's Gucci woman, who has always played with contradictions like tough-chic and masculine-feminine, is sure to feel at home in a place where rough surfaces are contrasted with smooth ones and the urban meets the organic. Thick floating resin slabs, lit from within, serve as glowing risers for footwear, creating an edgy, industrial touch, while a pebbled concrete floor brings a natural element to the mix. A long, low couch and the walls of the dressing rooms are covered with a cozy sueded mohair that plays off of the store's smoky mirrors, thick slabs of polished Lucite in the display units and nubby dark brown carpeting.

After their "DarkSide" piece, which exposed pre-war "intel" for all to see, I would say this is Frontline's best work. Not for the faint of heart... not pretty.... not deniable.... Endgame This program contains graphic and violent imagery On Dec. 19, 2006, President George W. Bush said for the first time that the United States is not winning the war in Iraq. It was a dramatic admission from a president who had insisted since the war began that things were under control. Now, as the U.S. begins what the administration hopes is the final effort to secure victory through a "surge" of troops, Gen. Jack Keane, Col. William Hix, Col. H.R. McMaster, Maj. Thomas Mowle, State Department Counselor and other military and government officials talk to FRONTLINE about both the military and political events that have led up to the current "surge" strategy, in Endgame. The report is the fifth film in a series of Iraq war stories from FRONTLINE producer Michael Kirk, including Rumsfeld's War, The Torture Question, The Dark Side and The Lost Year in Iraq. (more »)
let's try a little experiment, shall we, rationallies? for this thread, let's ignore the trolls who refuse to watch the non-political program or comment on its content.... let them squawk and obfuscate all they like... however, if a Bushie has the courage to watch the program, and can instead comment on and dispute any of the major themes, or prove a general or CIA agent is lying, we'll promise to forgive their forum sins and debate civilly with them from here on out... this will be their chance to truly take the high road, and debate the issue of this war's success/failure with merit, and not personal attacks... if not, oh well.... but this war's objectives are lost and not retrievable... i don't like it.... but worse, i don't like that certain elements of this country refuse to own up.... "And let no one be mistaken about this: The Muslim Arabs on the ground in Iraq know we are done. We are finished. They know we are going to leave. It's not a question of if; it's only a question of when. And they see us as having been defeated. That's very clear. The only people who aren't clear on this right now are sitting in Washington, D.C., particularly in the White House and the Pentagon" -- Col. Douglas Macgregor (Ret.) Military strategist
Well I haven't seen the show but that one quote from Macgergor says a few things and doesn't mean we lost. I know you must be giddy and couldn't wait to post this good news of our reported defeat. How do you think the Muslim Arabs think we're finished? Could they be influenced by the never ending bombardment of anti Ameircan reports and stories in the media? Count on that PBS piece being a centerpiece for discussion and rally cry for those Muslims on the ground. This will surely convince them, and with folks like you spreadding the "good news" it could happen all the faster. I've seen many more quotes from generals that beg to differ with his take on things. I will watch it though. I for one don't just watch/read things that support my take on things. But i'm just a jaggie, isn't that right?
An accurate and revealing portrayal of events here and in Iraq. Just loved the scene where Bremer is secreted out of Iraq because the normal airport road was deemed unsafe. Rat poison for the Neo Cons. Eat it up Boys
unecessary personal attack.... one down... 9 or 10 more to go... i still have hope one or two of them will take the offer ...
Pot to the kettle: "You're black". Tell me you didn't post the lets "try a little experiment" to belittle people that disagree with you. tell me that you didn't call me a jaggie? Tell me that you don't call people idiots and POS. Tell me that this whole post wasn't meant as a gottcha piece. When I have a several hours I'm going to piece a by now very long thread of all the name calling, smug, smarter than thou posts you bombard the board with every day of your life. You're entitled to your point of view you are vicious to anyone that disagrees. You use the word "debate" but there is absloutely none with you. There is one and only one view that is acceptable in the world and that is yours. You know it all and when some mentioned football then of course you are then ultimate expert on that as well. Why didn't that suprise me? I think i can throw away all my encyclpedias now. We have the book of knowledge right here on the patsfans board. PS. Who the feck cares about you're stupid experiment? You know most people I tend to think are allright and would be great company at a football game or in another setting. Patters, Harry, Mikey, Foggy, Realworld, Pujo, I can go on. They seem to at least listen to another POV. You, are different. I'd have a horrible time with you though. No respect, none, zero.
like i give a sh!t... again... i do so only in response... treat me with respect from the start, and you'd receive it... go ahead and do your research, and for each occassion whereby you find i've taken someone to task, i'll show you where that person started sh!t... including you... it's not a gotcha piece... there are easier ways to do that... what i'm looking for is mature debate about the merits of this war... it can still be that, in this thread, anyway, if the predictable dozen wouldn't once again start sh!t on a personal level, and could perhaps tackle the issue itself... here, i'll start: this occupation is lost... now, see if you can debate that statement without focusing on me in any way shape or form.... go ahead... show me you can do it... i haven't seen it yet
So let's see here One side of the aisle posts a thread to express a point of view on an issue.. The other side responds by attacking/demeaning the source of information... Author of thread responds by counterattack on lack of research and mental acuity of the rebuttal. The other side cites irrelavent scandals from years past Author cites counter irrelavent scandals from years past The other side calls his Momma names Author calls his Momma names...ect ....ect Sense a pattern here? Not just this thread...but all these stinkin threads!!!!!!! When does the damn football season start??????
Does treating with you respect require that you're not to be challanged? And did you not throw youself smack-dab in the middle of of the focus with your little "experiment"? Anyway for starters we are still in there and we are still fighting. To me and Tom brady that means that it ain't over. Sure, some retired ex-Patriot or some tired old media "journalist" may be all disgruntled over his time with or covering them but don't go in the media and say the season is lost in the middle of it ala Ron Borges. And don't accuse me of comparing a game to a war in magnitude. To the fighting folks, the same anolgy is even more valid. I have several friends in the military and I can't tell you how angry they are over the negative media and anti-US bloggers that is constantly thrown in their face. Once again it is music to the ears to the radical Muslims. Without even googling for disenting views of other military brass(which you know there are many) to your views of "the war is lost" drum beat. I'll say that the fact that we are there and the fight continues is evidence that it ain't over.
"negative reporting" why is it that so many war supporters (or whatever they prefer to be called) seem to believe the media just needs to keep quiet and not report on what's going on? like it's their duty to infact, not do their job, and remain idle until the war's end? ... they're not making these stories up, they're a reflection of what is happening... blame the stories for occuring, not the media for doing their job... i've seen the stories reported and the books written about schools restored, hospitals built, water treatment plants fixed up... so it's not like it's purposely focused on the negative over there... regardless, there is far more calamity and sabotage and waste and corruption... the media isn't here or there to make the right happy, or the left happy... it's doing its job to inform the American people ... it's called the first amendment.... if you want to prop up a democracy, you can't stifle the tenets of your own in the process...
Because typically they aren't reporting on what is going on they are expressing opinions. Why aren't they reporting??? Because they aren't out in the field with the troops That Why they don't know what the hell is going most are merely pushing an agenda. Michael Yon http://www.michaelyon-online.com/wp/operation-arrowhead-ripper-day-one.htm is on the ground reporting first hand on the surge and living with the GI's. Alos Michael Gordon from the NYT is in the field actually reporting.
I got a better idea than your stupid experiment. Lets just answer 1 question. Our blood and treasure are out there right now, sweating, struggling and dying right this very minute, and all your smug nonsense posts will do nothing to change that. It's happening now. Arrowhead Ripper has begun. It's primarily AQ vs. us. We either win and have prayer of doing anything good over there, or we lose and, well............. nothing good will come of it. One thing is for sure, some of us will die. My question to you is simply: WHICH SIDE DO YOU WANT TO WIN?
bullsh!t... as a field journalist, you don't "report" on opinion... that's an oxy-moron... you report what the military tells the press when they come back to base, you fashion your story around military quotes and officials' quotes... regardless, there are thousands of journalists in Iraq, some embedded in the field... no one is saying we don't kick the crap out of the enemy when engaged... but it's like holding five pounds of jello in your hand.... not possible to get them all.... not possible to stop the bombings...
If you are in the filed you report WHAT YOU SEE, and what you hear from the GI's in the field. This is reporting. Most of the media is reporting from Press Conferences in the Green Zone and hotel bars. They promote thjeir agendas and make the 'fact' fit the story they want to tell. This is what the bulk of the MSM engages in. Most of the time we were chasing the enemy out of one place and then into another. The current operation is seek and destroy IOW kill the bad guys. Unfortunately it took Bush longer to find Patraeus than it took Lincoln to find Grant. From M Yon with the troops:
they're not allowed to just go out on patrols on a whim... and they can't go out unprotected... do you believe Patraeus is the solution to this whole thing?
Just as I suspected. More smoke and mirrors. You don't even really know the fight that I'm talking about, do you? Yet, you want me take you serious and debate the merits of the war with you?

Basic CorrectionsIn 1978, the Maine Legislature passed laws mandating the Trustees of the Maine Criminal Justice Academy to establish standards for training for Corrections Officers. The purpose of this mandate was to ensure that no person could serve as a Corrections Officer without meeting minimal training standards. The mandate called for a basic course and regular in-service training. To carry out this mandate, a questionnaire covering all possible Corrections activities was distributed to all personnel of the State and County Corrections facilities. Line personnel reviewed each item and indicated how frequently, if at all, they performed each task. Supervisors rated each task in terms of its importance and when it should be learned. The responses were computerized and the results analyzed to reveal tasks that are common to all Corrections Officers. That list of tasks was then used to develop learning objectives for basic training. Academy staff and numerous volunteers wrote narratives to accompany the objectives. The Narratives were to be used by instructors to become familiar with the reasoning behind the objectives. After looking at the objectives , it was obvious that some topics needed to be taught before a new employee set foot inside a facility and other topics could wait. The curriculum was then divided into A, B, C, and D levels. The "A" level was to be presented before a new employee would interact with inmates. The "B" level would be taught after the new officer had enough experience to understand the issues raised in the training. "C" level would be even later and would cover advanced and professional topics and issues. "D" level would be refresher and new issues. "A" and "B" are taught at each facility and "C" is done at the Academy except under rare circumstances. When the training staff at an agency feels that a new officer is ready Academy staff administer a test. A passing grade on that test allows entrance to the "C" course at the Academy. The "C" program is eighty hours in a two week period, with two written tests, which are averaged for successful completion. The "C" program must be completed within one year of the hiring date for new officers. Each year a Corrections Advisory Committee recommends to the Academy Trustees a number of topics to be presented as mandatory in-service. Those topics usually are comprised of two or three specific subjects and two or three subjects which the individual agency determines through the use of a needs assessment. To remain certified, an officer must attend all the mandatory in-service training. |

text: Before you blame the saltshaker for your swollen ankles (after all, salt makes you retain water, right?) and vow to cut back, consider this: First, a certain amount of swelling is normal and healthy during pregnancy. Second, while hormones (and not that salt shaker) are primarily responsible for pregnancy swelling, a certain amount of sodium is also necessary to allow for your body's higher fluid volume (which that swelling is a sign of- or – 'which is indicated by that swelling.'). But just as with fat, more is not better. A healthy goal for all adults: approximately 2,400 mg of sodium per day (most Americans consume 4,000 to 8,000 mg daily). If your intake is high, cut back on foods that are high in sodium: Read the nutrition labels on packaged foods and use the saltshaker sparingly.

Mother hopes son's death brings country together
Thursday, August 21, 2014
ROCHESTER — As the local community grieves the death of James Foley, the Rochester journalist who was murdered by Islamic State militants after his kidnapping in Syria, his family remembers him as a dedicated, loving man who cared about people and their suffering.
Foley had previously been captured in Libya in 2011, and held in captivity for 44 days before being released. Despite that experience, Foley had decided to return to journalism work in conflict areas, because the work was his passion and he cared about the people who were suffering, said Diane.
"He died for that compassion, and that love. I pray that he could be remembered that way," said Diane.
"We cannot be blackmailed by a terrorist group," said Shaheen. Obama expressed his condolences to the Foley family over the phone Wednesday, and the family has asked him to do whatever he could to save the other Americans being held captive, said John. Foley's parents said they were grateful for efforts to bring Foley home. This summer, Obama sent special operations troops to Syria on a secret mission to rescue American hostages, including Foley, but the troops did not find them, the Obama administration said Wednesday. Officials said the rescue mission was authorized after intelligence agencies believed they had identified the location in Syria where the hostages were being held. But the several dozen special operations forces dropped by aircraft into Syria did not find them at that location and engaged in a firefight with Islamic State militants before departing, killing several militants. No Americans died but one sustained a minor injury when an aircraft was hit.
After learning about Foley's death, Mayor T.J. Jean released a statement late Tuesday night, extending heartfelt condolences to the Foley family. "James Foley worked tirelessly to give a voice to the oppressed and convey the stark reality of war to the entire world," said Jean. "His tragic death has shaken our community and our thoughts and continued prayers remain with his family and friends during this very difficult time." Other elected officials also expressed their condolences. Sen. Kelly Ayotte said in a statement, "Our hearts are broken for the Foley family. James was an innocent civilian who was bravely performing his job as a journalist. This barbaric and heinous act shocks the conscience and highlights the truly evil nature of the terrorists we confront, who must be defeated. My thoughts and prayers are with James Foley's family at this extremely difficult time."
Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter released a statement saying, "My thoughts and prayers are with the Foley family at this terrible time. I remember Jim Foley as a child and I will not allow evil to change the way I remember him. I will always choose to remember his goodness, his life, and his great family." |

Donald Rumsfeld worked for three presidents, led the Pentagon twice and, whether you agree with him or not, he has been one of the most controversial figures in recent American history. The debut of his new book, "Rumsfeld's Rules: Leadership Lessons in Business, Politics, War and Life," gives him an opportunity to share the rules by which he has lived his life. Don't confuse those with the words that have come out of his mouth; "I stand by what I meant," he says.
Rumsfeld, 80, sat down with ABC News' Jonathan Karl to talk about the book. Watch the interview here, and see below for a list of some of his most famous – and infamous – quotations that he professes in his new book.
"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because there are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know."
At a February 2002 news briefing, then-Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld said the words for which he is now most famous. Embroiled in the decision to invade Iraq, Rumsfeld was asked by a reporter about his knowledge of a direct link between Baghdad and weapons of mass destruction. Many decried his above response as unnecessarily convoluted, while others defended him, including renowned linguist Geoffrey Pullum, who described the quotation as "impeccable, syntactically, semantically, logically, and rhetorically." The title of Rumsfeld's 2011 memoir, "Known and Unknown," comes from the quote.
Rumsfeld Rule:
"If you are working from your inbox, you are working on other people's priorities."
Excerpt from Rumsfeld's book: "With emails and phone calls coming in over the transom every hour of the day, it's easy to get lost in inbox items, forgetting what your main objectives are or spending too little time on them. The task of a leader is to have an organization work out of his or her outbox. In every management position I held, I generated dozens of queries and requests to the staff each day, so that our team was working on our agreed priorities. In the Pentagon, these memos became known as "snowflakes" because the white pieces of paper fell with abandon on various offices in the building. To this day, I still send out dozens of memos and letters each week. I also keep a "tickle" file of my notes to remind me when I should hear back from the addressees or if I need to remind them to get back to me – gently, of course."
"Stuff happens … and it's untidy, and freedom's untidy, and free people are free to make mistakes and commit crimes and do bad things."
In an April 2003 news conference, Rumsfeld responded to a question about widespread looting throughout Iraq. The United States had invaded Iraq and a reporter wanted to know what was going to be done to restore law and order. Responding later, he believed that the quote left the media with an unfortunate impression, writing in his book, "It left an inaccurate and regrettable impression that stuck with me for some time."
Rumsfeld Rule:
"The cover-up is always worse than the event."
Calling it in his book "Rule One" of "the two most important rules in Washington, D.C.," this quote speaks largely to his experience in government during the Nixon years, but also applies to modern political scandals. Referring directly to the Benghazi scandal plaguing the Obama administration, Rumsfeld told Fox News in an interview, "I don't know how you can call it anything else."
"I'm not into this detail stuff. I'm more concept-y."
In a January 2002 interview with the Washington Post, Rumsfeld's off-the-cuff remark is often taken out of context and applied in a derogatory way by critics of the Bush Administration during the Iraq War. Really, Rumsfeld was commenting on notes he had made in preparation for the interview.
Rumsfeld Rule:
"Arguments of convenience lack integrity and inevitably trip you up."
In his book, he described the answer to such arguments: "What I do in such circumstances is to rephrase the question so it is based on a premise that I consider more accurate or germane." It seems he lives by his own rules. In an interview, ABC News' Jonathan Karl said to Rumsfeld, "You always would question the premise of a question." His response: "Only when the premise was fallacious."
"I can't think of anything funnier than a handful of congressmen walking around [Iraq.] They'd have to be there for the next 50 years trying to find something. It's a joke."
This quote refers to an August 2002 invitation by Iraq to members of Congress to tour suspected biological, chemical and nuclear weapons sites in Iraq. Rumsfeld suggested the lawmakers alone would have a hard time finding anything. The quote gained weight through the years when no such weapons were found.
"You and a few other critics are the only people I've heard use the phrase 'immediate threat.' I didn't, the president didn't. And it's become kind of folklore that that's what's happened."
This infamous March 2002 quote came from an interview on CBS News' "Face the Nation." Known for undermining the premise of journalists' questions, Rumsfeld found himself in an awkward situation when it was pointed out that he did, indeed, say in September 2002, "But no terrorist state poses a greater or more immediate threat to the security of our people and the stability of the world than the regime of Saddam Hussein in Iraq."
"Certainty without power can be interesting, even amusing. Certainty with power can be dangerous."
In his memoir, "Known and Unknown," Rumsfeld writes this statement about Richard Nixon's White House aide John Ehrlichman.

SSd = 6202 - (238)^2/48
SSd = 5201.917
Sd = sqrt(SSd/n-1)
Sd = sqrt(5021.917/47) =
Sd = 10.337
t = 4.958/10.337/sqrt(48)
t = 3.323
Two tail = .0017
right tail = 8.6885e^-4
Left tail = .9991
Have a question, where did you get the 4.958 and what did you look at for it. Thanks this has really helped so far, just unsure on that.
This is mean = 238/48 = 4.985
I am looking for t.
238/48 = 4.958
But how do you get the p-value, I have worked it out by hand and also put into calculator and it comes up wrong. 0.0017 was the last answer I got. and 0.9991 before that. I have several questions like this asking for p-value so if you could work one out and I could use as an example I would appreciate it. Thank you for all your help. I got the t as 3.32 and that was the right answer on that one.
First of all, you have to calculate your mean, standard deviation
sum of d is 238
n is 48
Mean = 238/48 = 4.958
Variance = 6202 -238^2/48 = 5201.92
standard derivation sqrt((variance/n-1)
Sd = 10.337
Find p-value you use your ti-83 plus
Go to stat
Enter mean = 4.958
Go to down to Sx then
Standard deviation or sx = 10.337
n =48
Select Not equal
Go to down and select calculate enter
It will you info

A Digitimes article sited Taiwan-based LED makers who said that the proportion of LED chips used in LED lighting will increase from 20% in 2012 to about 25% in 2013. The Taiwan LED makers predicted that the average luminous efficiency of LED bulbs reached about 77 lm/W in 2013. The average efficiency is expected to increase to 110 lm/W i in 2017.
However an even bigger change in the cost per lumen is expected to occur much sooner, the Taiwan LED makers noted. The average lumen-price ratio will be about 42lm/US$ for 2013 and increase to about 60lm/US$ in 2014, the LED makers said. The number of LED bulb shipments globally is also expected to jump 84 percent to to 1.254 billion units in 2014. The LED makers expect this to account for 9.7% of all lighting products

Oxford University Liberal Democrats is one of the oldest - if not the oldest - university political society in the country, tracing its origin
to the Liberal Club founded in 1913. I was the President of OULD in Trinity Term 1990! The Club in its different incarnations boasts
a great variety of Liberal (and not so Liberal) luminaries amongst its alumni - but you can find out about them on other pages.
The Friends of OULD was started by Dr Tim Leunig, now Tutor in Economic History at the London School of Economics, in 1993,
as a means of keeping former members in touch with the Club and what it was doing - and of raising money, quite understandably.
We had a newsletter called 'Despatches' which metamorphosed into 'A Liberal View' a few years later. I took over in 1997, when a
rendezvous was arranged at Carfax in Oxford with Mr Mark Egan who thrust a box of papers into my hand and a second box which
turned out to contain hundreds of Club ties commissioned some six years before by my friend Mr Sam Best-Shaw; following the
precedent set by my predecessors, I failed to sell a solitary one, though I did lose a few and eventually the lot. He then ran away very
FOULD was pretty successful (in the sense that it continued existing), managing to keep people informed and even supporting the
election of councillors and other campaigns. Thanks to a slew of friends who somehow remained friends we filled a magazine each
term. But by mid-2001 it was clear that 'Liberal View' had run out of steam, and even if it hadn't, I had. I failed to find anyone else to
palm it off on and the whole thing sputtered to a halt. Now, however, we've at last moved into the magical world of the Internet, and
hopefully may achieve our ends even better this way.
So do have a look at what's here. Some of it's even interesting!
