I recently read some things I don't like too much here on Open Salon, stuff written by white assholes who think they are superior because of their race, and this post is an attempt to express my emotions on the matter.
Since the election of Barack Obama, the question of race in America, long smouldering in the background, politely ignored, or perhaps cowardly avoided is a better phrase, has been brought to the forefront in raw and dramatic form. I encourage you all to examine this heartfelt and painful post, Keka: White Men With Guns to get a little taste of the ugly kinds of racist cockroaches that have come scurrying out into the light since Obama was elected.
Lately I've been thinking about Malcolm X.
Anybody with a brain and some sensitivity and open eyes has seen the racism in the crazy stories about our President: he's a Muslim, he's foreign born, he's the Anti-Christ, he's dark and scary and planning to destroy America, Joe Wilson and Jan Brewer disrespecting him in the Congress or shaking a finger in his face on the tarmac like he was a boy being scolded. When the President is disrespected, the United States of America is disrespected; the American Flag is disrespected; the Constitution and the Revolution and the Civil War and every President that ever served this nation is being disrespected. And these racist bastards could only behave this way toward a black President. The list of offenses and racial ugliness that has surfaced like pond scum is long and obvious. Some of it is right here at Open Salon; you can find it in posts and comments every day, and it's more visible during the current discussion about Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman.
In thinking about Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, and in thinking about self-defense and "Stand Your Ground," I was reminded of Malcolm X.
About 20 years ago I picked up a booklet and a CD with a collection of speeches by Malcolm X. The collection is called "Malcolm X Speaks Out". I was born in 1959, and when Malcolm X was still alive I didn't know anything about him. As I grew up, I learned very little about him, other than that he was radical, and preached violence. So I was curious to see the truth about the man on my own. It took me over 30 years before I grew up enough to have the courage to find out the truth, to face something that was vaguely scary to me because of what I had been told as a young boy.
And here is what I discovered: Malcolm X is an intelligent articulate man who spoke about justice for the American "so-called" Negro. As I listened to Malcolm talk for the first time in my life, I heard the anger in his voice, and I heard the intelligence in his words, and I understood the righteousness of what he said. He never said anything that any white person would not agree to if the tides were turned, and it was white people being discriminated against, and oppressed, and subjected to humiliation and shame and violence and hatred and all the ugly shameful horrid crimes that whites have perpetrated on blacks in the history of this nation.
Any white American who cares about justice and equality, and who has a proper awareness of the history of white Americans, especially vis-a-vis African Americans, any white American who is honest and wants to own up to that inescapable history that we are still connected to and that we have to live with, should come face to face with Malcolm X and absorb what the man has to say.
And it is not easy at times. Click on the link below and listen to the following speech, one that gave me chills when I first heard it, and it still gives me chills. If you are white, then you are the snake Malcolm is talking about; own up to that and feel the righteous justice in the man's anger; know that if you were in his position you would feel as he did. Think about what the African people have endured from the first minute they came to this land; put yourself in their shoes and just absorb what Malcom says as if he speaks for you; feel that in your heart and do not be defensive.
Click and listen: Any Old Snake Will Do
This black man was shot through the heart by Police men in Los Angeles, California, and they are dumb enough to think we have forgotten it. Well, a Muslim never forgets. You don't kill our brother! We don't never forget! You don't shoot one of us and then grin in our face. You don't shoot one of us and then shake our hands and think we'd forget it. No, we never forget, we'll never forget! Someone has to pay. Somewhere, somehow, someone has to pay. When a snake bites your children, you don't go and look for the snake that has blood on it's jaws, any old snake will do. Any old snake will do! .... I'm telling you, the only way you get justice is in the street. The only way you get justice is in the sidewalk. The only way you get justice is when you make justice for yourself. -- Malcolm X
It is pointless to deny that white Americans have behaved like snakes, and pointless to deny that there are still snakes among us today. It is our responsibility to not be snakes, to stand up and defend our fellow human beings, to defend our President, and to call out, to denounce, to shame white racism wherever and whenever we see it, to not be silent and to not enable it, but to crush it, to end it, to not tolerate the bullshit claims of reverse racism, to not allow ignorant white conservatives to pretend that racism is a thing of the past until it is truly gone.
What is reverse racism? A white kid doesn't get into Harvard or Medical School like the other 90% of white kids who did get in? Boo hoo. That is not racism, that is an inconvenience, and to call it racism is a joke. Put that next to 400 years of slavery, torture, and humiliation. Put it next to hundreds of years of systematic denial of education and economic opportunity; of injustice in the courts, of lynchings, of Jim Crow, and the cumulative psychological and economic impact of being denied access to the American dream and the full rights and dignity that any human being deserves. Reverse racism: if that could even be funny at all I'd call it a joke; but it's not even a joke, it's just a crying shame that white privileged assholes could even entertain the idea for a second.
In the following video Malcolm talks about rights, the Constitutional rights, including the right to bear arms and the right to self-defense.
By Any Means Necessary.
If Malcolm were alive today he'd be talking about "Stand Your Ground" and the second amendment. He'd say that if George Zimmerman can defend himself with a gun and walk free, then the black man should be able to defend himself with a gun and walk free. Anybody who takes George Zimmerman's side on this matter had better watch what you wish for, because when you get it you might not like it so much.
Note: The next paragraph is somewhat of a dilemma for me. It is what I wrote originally, when swept away late at night by a mood of extreme outrage over the tendency of many white people, especially the conservative variety that is especially drawn into the group solidarity of tribalism, of race, of religion, and nationalism, to feel compelled to defend the actions of George Zimmerman. Not only that, but I saw some comments and posts from unapologetic white supremacists who were slandering Trayvon Martin, as if there was anything a teen age boy could have done, any mischief he may have done or trouble he might have had that would somehow justify shooting a 17 year old carrying an iced tea and a bag of skittles. What that is really about is justifying their feelings of racial superiority (which need justification because inside they feel threatened) by marking Trayvon as something non-white, someone non-virtuous, somone who could be portrayed as deficient and thus as an acceptable loss, as one who somehow deserved to be shot. As a white man I feel compelled to speak out against this kind of blunt primitive logic of skin-color-based group solidarity, this kind of dehumanization in the interest of preserving racial boundaries. The differences of race are biologically trivial and unimportant genetically compared to the overwhelming solidarity and sameness of all human beings. We are all brothers and sisters in a big beautiful family, and to see this kind of racist ignorance being perpetuated, and to see references to race war and to blacks as a kind of animal made me snap with rage and I spilled it out in a raw unfiltered violent and offensive emotional blur of foul language. A wise gentleman in the comments, Mr. jmac, cautioned me that this rant had corrupted an otherwise good post, and I think he is right; I am a peaceful loving person, and I do not wish anyone ill. I hope somehow those whose vision is clouded by racism will learn, will see the truth that is somehow obscured from their eyes. I nearly deleted the last paragraph because it is not necessary; but something inside made me stop. It came from somewhere deep inside me, from a deep anger boiling over, and in some way it is meaningful. There is something raw and true in that anger and rage, and there is a promise to fight against anyone who engages in racist violence, to not be a silent enabler if it should come to that. So I leave it up to the reader to choose to skip the last paragraph and go straight to the links I provided, or to read it with my disclaimer in mind that it represents a moment of deep rage against racism, against stupidity, against old ways of thinking that have no place in our future, but that my peaceful self-restraint has that raw emotion safely in check unless someday there is a real need for it. It is a kind of poem or art of my anti-racist anger that stands as a warning to those who think they will enlist the support or silent assent of other whites in support of their vile immoral program.
Some of you nasty pieces of garbage are right here on Open Salon and I've read your posts and your comments; I've seen stuff written here that's worthy of being Stormfront.org material; you know who you are; I hold you racist right-wing Nazi fucks in such bitter contempt that if I had shit on the bottom of my shoe I'd gladly wipe it off on your ugly pale pug-nosed faces. And if you ignorant punks ever start the "race war" you like to dream about, I'll join with a hundred million other decent whites in gunning you down myself. I'm a white man with guns in my house, and I'd shoot down white supremacist racists to defend American blacks, and I'd do it gladly because I want you out of this world. You will be crushed without mercy, like bugs. Your days are over, and your future is non-existent. You might as well do yourselves a favor and stop breathing. It won't be white people rising up against dark people; it will be the stupid cesspool of minority white ignorant genetic trash, the stinking remnant of southern resentment still bitter over losing the Civil War, stepping into the light so the majority of decent citizens can defend our brothers and sisters from the deviant dead-end withering branch of inbred human garbage you brainless zombies represent. So you'd best just lay low under your rocks and in your caves until your kind dies off and this planet is finally rid of your poison. You know who you are; you're even dull witted enough to feel proud of your ugly putrid mediocre white-supremacist foulness, so I don't need to name names.
In New York, unarmed teen shot and killed by police.
Prescient article identifies ugly white backlash in 2009.
I've known about Malcolm X since he first set foot in front of a camera, and though he was militant in his rhetoric I never heard him utter an obscene word. In the end of his brief career, his rhetoric changed and he spoke out against the perversion of Islam by the Nation of Islam and Elijah Muhammad.
He was still a Muslim, but he felt the Nation of Islam had "gone as far as it can" because of its rigid religious teachings. He said he was going to organize a black nationalist organization that would try to "heighten the political consciousness" of African Americans.
After completing the Hajj, Malcolm said the trip allowed him to see Muslims of different races interacting as equals. He came to believe that Islam could be the means by which racial problems could be overcome.
The three assassins who shot him down in the midst of a speech were black men sent to kill him by the Nation of Islam...
Malcolm X was above all else a gentleman and and though he expressed his beliefs with force and passion, his words were always measured. He never ranted with obscene scatological threats.
But yes I was advocating standing up to the likes of Nazis and not allowing silence and passivity to enable evil people to perpetrate acts of death and destruction. I was Standing My Ground out of necessity, and so I abandoned politeness and measured dialog.
As a black man, as a minority challenger to an established regime of white power, Malcolm X had to behave like Jackie Robinson, to excel with honest effort and to stay within the rules of the game, and he was smart enough to know it.
As a privileged white man, I'm indulging in the luxury of calling out the true nature of foul worms masquerading as humans. Yes, I'm venting emotions, but they are not paranoid lunatic imaginings, they are a reaction to real human darkness and stupidity. I'm lashing out at people who are preserving ugliness not befitting the dignity of human beings. I refuse to not hold up a mirror to those vermin.
Reverse discrimination has nothing to do with actual discriminiation. Reverse discrimination is about turf and not discrimination at all: if it were about discrimination, those screaming about it would have originally screamed about actual discrimination, but you'll notice that the overlap between one group and the other is almost nonexistent, which says that the rationale behind reverse discrimination doesn't come from the same place. There is a fundamental and obvious difference between trying to bring a minority up to the majority's level by compensating for past forcibly imposed disadvantages and a member of the majority resisting taking on any disadvantage for any reason under any and all circumstances regardless of the boost provided by past advantages. Given how bad a permanent underclass is for this country in so many ways, I'd conclude that resistance to "reverse discrimination" can indicate a dearth of patriotism - it sure as Hell isn't how America's Black WWII vets behaved after putting their lives on the line for a country that treated them like shit when they returned home.
Venting is fine as long as you have a good idea what you think it will accomplish. There are things it will accomplish, actually, but it won't be about slime you find here who frankly can't be reached that way; it will be that your allies will understand that you mean it and that you actually are deeply angry.

Jamie Lynn Spears' engagement confirmed by his cousin
Jamie Lynn Spears' engagement to boyfriend Casey Aldridge has been confirmed by his cousin.
Tina Robinson told Us Weekly: "He proposed a few days ago, and she accepted."
Tina said she hadn't yet seen a ring - although Jamie Lynn is said to have been showing it off to friends around Kentwood, Louisiana - and she doesn't know whether they'll marry before or after Jamie Lynn gives birth in May.
Tina added: "They probably weren't expecting [the proposal] to be, like, right now, but with her being pregnant, that really pushed it up."
As she is under 18, Jamie Lynn would need both her parents' permission to marry 18 year old Casey.

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger repeated today on "This Week" that he'd take any state aid money GOP governors like Gov. Mark Sanford, R-S.C. turn down — a position that has raised the ire of many of his Republican colleagues in Washington, D.C. this weekend.
"Governor Sanford says that he does not want to take the money, the federal stimulus package money. And I want to say to him: 'I'll take it.' I'm more than happy to take his money or any other governor in this country that doesn't want to take this money, I take it, because we in California need it," Schwarzenegger said.
He also suggested his party's ideological opposition to tax cuts isn't always tenable.
"I think that the Republican Party or any party has to always think, when you make a decision, 'Do I want to make a decision that's based — that's best for the party? Or am I a public servant and have to serve the people, what is best for the people?'" he said.
Schwarzenegger defended his California budget plan which will raise taxes in his state, despite his campaign pledge against a tax hike.
"In this particular case, in order to solve a $42 billion deficit, the only way you can do that is a combination of making severe cuts and also having some revenue increases," Schwarzenegger said.
The California governor also told me he may be open to the prospect of nationalizing some of the nation's struggling banks.
"Well, with some banks, that's maybe necessary," he told me. "I think the most important thing is, how do we create stability in this country? And I think this is why it is very important that the administration has a very clear message and not change it. I think that what America has really gone through, a huge challenge just this last year, because we have had a different administration. They have a different way of thinking. No — no one here is right or wrong, but a different way of thinking."
Schwarzenegger said Republicans in Washington must put aside their ideology and work with President Barack Obama on solving the economic crisis.
"You know, you've got to go beyond just the principles. You've got to go and say, 'What is right for the country right now?'" he said. "I think that, if they — they should make an effort to work together and to find what is best for the people, because by derailing everything, it's not going to help anybody, and it creates instability and insecurity."

Want a new car in Beijing? Sorry, there's just too much traffic.
China banned all car sales in Beijing from Dec. 24 until its new lottery system comes up with the names of the 20,000 applicants who will have the right to buy license plates this month.
Alexander F. Yuan/AP/File
Li Wen's Citroen car showroom was silent and deserted Wednesday, save for clumps of bored salesmen in red and blue anoraks with nothing to do.
Two weeks earlier, Mr. Li recalls, "it was packed. We were open till 3 in the morning, there were 200 people in here, and all customers could do was say whether they wanted a car or not. It took 10 minutes to sell a car that night. There was no bargaining."
Since then, Li has not sold a single vehicle at any of the four dealerships he runs. Like every other automobile dealer in Beijing, he knows he won't see another client for another three weeks, thanks to drastic new government rules designed to get a grip on the city's increasingly appalling traffic.
In 2009, China overtook the US to become the world's largest consumer of cars and it's still growing rapidly. The number of cars on Beijing's roads has nearly doubled in the past five years, making driving in the city center at almost any hour a nightmare.
The government banned all car sales in the capital from Dec. 24 until its new lottery system comes up with the names of the 20,000 lucky applicants who will have the right to buy license plates this month.
One hundred thousand wannabe car owners have so far put their names in the drawing, to be announced on Jan. 26.
The lottery system will authorize the purchase of 240,000 cars this year. Another 160,000 are expected to be bought by customers who have their existing cars destroyed, or who sell their vehicles to used car dealers – they will be allowed to keep their plates and will be exempt from the lottery.

Spending good money on nothing, it's not a new concept.
Disclosure: I'm involved with an organization that has virtual goods and currency -- and yes, you can exchange real money for virtual goods in it.
The virtual economy is heating up. GigaOm reports that Facebook Could Make $250M From Virtual Goods Next Year; make money from stuff that isn't tangible. Stuff you can't hold in your hands. Yet, the concept of virtual isn't really new, it's really just a new label applied to an ancient concept.
It is kind of interesting, when you think of it. For the vast majority of human history, ideas used to be the only type of non-physical 'object' that people would pay money for -- ideas manifested as stories, concepts, music, inventions, etc.
Someone had to come up with the idea. And if it was good, then someone paid for that idea.
Then, the idea had to be transformed into reality -- a play, a symphony, a building perhaps. The idea becomes physical (for a short time if you're witnessing a performance). But still you have the physical manifestation of something created in the mind of someone.
Today, we have the virtual manifestation of ideas. Virtual in that when they manifest, they exist only in the medium they were designed for -- a Farmville farm lovingly tended and nurtured by someone using a keyboard and mouse. Or an Elvish Archer who's virtual skills and abilities have been carefully selected and honed.
Today's virtual goods economy is wonderful, exciting, and offers huge new opportunities that didn't exist before -- from the swetshop goldfarmer to the (mobile-device-app-store) developer-- doing work that has no physical manifestation can be both a pastime and a career.
But it shouldn't surprise us that people and organizations can make money in this way -- because we've been doing it for thousands of years. Only this medium is new.

5 Insider storylaiskahanska | 31/05/2013 | See all laiskahanska's reviews (1)A thoughtful, characteristic book. It has depth and the way the words are put on paper makes it still easy to read. Overall, I liked the book much. It's also sad, touching and honest. Great read, if you enjoy tennis, Agassi, psychological insight or sports overall.
5 Truly is OpenNic137 | 28/11/2011 | See all Nic137's reviews (2)I have read many autobiographies and several from tennis players... McEnroe, Becker, Sampras but by far Agassi's book is the ultimate, the standard, the benchmark. It really is an opena nd brutally honest insight into the life and mind of Andre Agassi.It is an excellent read for anyone, even if you are not interested in tennis or indeed sport in general, you would not be disappointed with this read. A lot of reviews call books 'must reads' but truly this story is a MUST READ. He tells his story right from the beginning and manages to give us an excellent view of life inside and outside tennis and how he managed to merge the two. For anyone struggling to find their place in life, Agassi's story can be a beacon of light and hope. Never give up and your rewards will come. Beautifully written.
5 Read this...blazeevas | 21/01/2010 | See all blazeevas's reviews (4)I'm halfway thru this book and it's brilliant - so well written and fascinating. I didn't realise such a passionate tennis player hated the game so much because of his father's force when he was young. Really interesting.
5 Must ReadLoveLifeLiveLife | 12/01/2010 | See all LoveLifeLiveLife's reviews (1)If you're a fan of tennis and Andre then this is a must, if you aren't a fan of either it'd definitely worth the read. The book is so well written, Andre takes you on the journey with him as he struggles to cope with the life he has been given by his father - one he doesn't want. Over his childhood and teenage years the journey is a real rollercoaster of highs and many lows, his frank and honest feeling about his marriage, the great freindships that he manages to build and sustain to this day and his thoughts on his peers on the tennis circuit. You hit every ball with him willing the outcome of matches to change whilst reading, even though you know the outcome! You come away with a sense of how lonely a tennis life can be, but with the strong dedication and attitude that Andre has how he copes with what life throws at him.... control what you can control. I didn't want it to end and now it has I want to go on that journey again!
5 A flamboyant journey of a legend.zooform | 05/01/2010 | See all zooform's reviews (21)There aren't many tennis players, let alone sportsman who are interesting enough to write a book. In fact, too many books are written by under-achieving and those bereft of personality, but 'Open' is not one of those. Andre Agaissi, for me anyway, is one of not only tennis', but sports greatest icons. From his wild days as a flamboyant youngster, to his Grand Slam victories, and also his resurrection after an all-time low. This book will enthrall as Agassi, in haunting style, takes through his tournament wins and losses, all the while snarling at his upbringing where he was literally forced to maintain a tennis career from such a young age.Agassi also takes us on an emotional rollercoaster, where we live through his broken relationships, but will become uplifted by his new found lust for life now married to Steffi Graf. In a genre so heavily dominated by robotic and sullen competitor's, 'Open' is a an honest account of a brutally lonely sport, and gives us an insight into a charismatic and enigmatic mind. This book has everything, from backhand winners, cross-court forehands and verbal warnings, to strange journeys, wonderful friendhsips, blood, sweat and tears. A must for Agassi fans..a must for tennis...just like the great man himself. Tennis is a a dull sport without him. Cherish those memories he left us with and buy 'Open'.

Michael Graves' Redesigned DIA Opens
With $158 million to spend, many an art museum might opt to build a new wing or two. Not so the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), which reopened last weekend with Michael Graves' long-awaited renovation. The project reclad some of the DIA's exteriors, rethought the way art is displayed and labeled in its existing galleries, and made interior circulation much clearer and easier.
Based on what you have seen and read about this project, how would you grade it? Use the stars below to indicate your assessment, five stars being the highest rating.
The DIA features an encyclopedic collection of art from all periods and locations, housed in a Renaissance-inspired building, dating to 1927, designed by Paul Cret. Over the years, as the DIA added north and south wings and tinkered with its galleries, it created a warren of spaces that were hard to navigate. Space for special shows was limited.
DIA hired Graves in 1989 to begin working on the renovation but, shortly afterward, the State of Michigan drastically cut its funding and the project was shelved to allow the museum to raise funds through a capital campaign. All the while, Graves and his office slowly worked on the project, which finally began construction in 2001.
The redesign added roughly 10 percent more space to the DIA's 600,000-square-foot building. But Graves, working with Detroit-based SmithGroup, redefined the DIA's interior with a new "spine," or main circulation corridor. This element creates a new north-south axis that opens the labyrinth of spaces created by decades of previous expansions. The spine does double duty as a gallery space with art lining its walls and displayed on pedestals.
Graves explained the idea behind DIA's new spine during a recent press preview. "The French called it the architectural marche, describing a movement through a building," he said, "so that the path upon which you find yourself starts to describe what is to the left and what is to the right and the kind of importance that each of those galleries might have."
DIA director Graham Beal has made clear that his objective was making sense of the existing building with a new master plan, rather than building a theatrical new wing in the manner of art museums in Milwaukee and Denver. Graves also addressed that question last August in interview with the Detroit Free Press. Speaking of DIA's collection, he said, "These are precious works, and I'm not about to put them on a sloped wall or a ramp or hung in a way that is not a part of the experience that the painter or the sculptor had in mind."
While most observers are responding favorably to Graves' DIA work, the one quibble that they raise concerns the white marble that now clads the DIA's north and south wings. Built in the 1960s and 1970s, they were covered originally in black granite to contrast with Cret's 1927 building; the lack of a vapor barrier and other problems prompted the museum to re-skin them. Graves used marble that came from the same Vermont quarry that Cret used for his 1927 structure. But because the Cret building's marble has aged—a process accelerated several decades ago when it was cleaned in a way that left it pitted—the wings now look so different that the contrast is jarring, shiny and new versus beautifully weathered. Even with age, the two marbles might never look quite the same.

It was fun and nervous to went through the mid review. There are many good feedbacks from critics and some suggestions as to where my project can proceed to.
Many of the critics thought it is an interesting project to proceed and investigate. Some of them also commented that my target group is truly underserved in many aspects and need more attentions towards them.
There are many questions toward the projects and comments on how I can improve.
Project: Some critics questioned the usefulness of such product and how much difference it is from what are on the market already. One critics mentioned the baskets that are already out there and why the focus do not use them. Another critic felt that this is not a thesis level problem because it does not address other safety issue cyclists' faces today. Some thought the problem is not clear enough and the argument need to be better built. Others, while thought the project is interesting, would like to see a better design so maybe not only the delivery people can use but other cyclists can also adopt them.
NFP: Some critics thought the NFP connection need to be better established and connected more in order to access relevant information on the issues and focus group. A Critic recommended me to translate my board and argument into focus group's language as a mean for engagement with them.
*Board: * Critics wanted to see more of storyboard and how the product is used. Some suggested that the second idea can be taken off and use the space for storyboard.
Model: Critics thought the sketch model is an mediocre representation of my arguments but need to be better made to show various kind of possibilities I mentioned. They recommended many sketch models that show functions and bring them to focus group for modifications that can meet their need. Some suggested additions of safety equipments be installed on to the bag (lights) to serve two purposes at the same time.

A collection of essays by the profoundly original, intellectually wide-ranging, Italian-Jewish historian Carlo Ginzburg underlines the influence of Yiddishkeit on his achievement. "Threads and Traces: True False Fictive," published recently by University of California Press, is an illuminating collection of chapters, deftly translated from the original Italian by Anne C. and John Tedeschi.
An omnivorous analyst of artistic and human history, Ginzburg offers innovative ideas on a startling variety of texts and art forms, somewhat in the manner of Swiss-Jewish literary historian Jean Starobinski. Like Starobinski, who is of Polish-Jewish origin, Ginzburg can seem like a one-man team of readers and researchers, so profound is his erudition.
The wellspring of his inspiration is his Judaism. In the preface to his 1999 study, "History, Rhetoric, and Proof," originally given as the Menahem Stern Jerusalem Lectures and hosted by the Historical Society of Israel, Ginzburg wrote: "I am a Jew who was born and grew up in a Catholic country; I never had a religious education; my Jewish identity is in large measure the result of persecution."
Ginzburg's father, Odessa-born philologist, historian and anti-fascist activist Leone Ginzburg, was arrested by Italian police and tortured to death in a Roman prison in 1944. At the time, his son Carlo, born in Turin, was 5 years old. Yet he retains clear memories of the central Italian town of Pizzoli, where his family had previously hid with his non-Jewish maternal grandmother, Lidia Tanzi. Ginzburg's mother was noted author Natalia Ginzburg, born Levi. In 1941, Leone Ginzburg wrote a letter to historian Luigi Salvatorelli to describe how, despite imprisonments and persecution, domestic life temporarily continued; "evenings, when the children have been put to bed," he and Natalia would sit opposite each other at a table, both busy with literary work: "These are our best times."
These "best times" of humbly mundane details before catastrophe struck would illuminate his son's future work as a historian. In the 1960s and '70s, Ginzburg developed the now celebrated investigative approach of microhistory with Italian-Jewish scholar Giovanni Levi, a boyhood friend and exact contemporary, following in the footsteps of previous authors who also favored a microscopic style of examining seemingly insignificant or previously overlooked details. In what remains his most internationally celebrated book, "The Cheese and the Worms: The Cosmos of a Sixteenth-Century Miller," from 1976, Ginzburg focuses on Domenico Scandella, an obscure miller who sacrificed his life to defy unjust authority, a man in some ways surprisingly like his own father. By researching myths, folklore and records of the Inquisition, Ginzburg recovered the sometimes strikingly eloquent voices of average people in the face of oppressive tyranny.
Only after writing a series of such books remembering people who were persecuted as witches or for other reasons did Ginzburg fully realize why this subject was of such intense interest to him. In a speech accepting Milan's 2010 Balzan Prize for European History (1400–1700), Ginzburg described his "emotional identification with victims of persecution" through history as an "unconscious projection of my Jewish identity, which persecution had reinforced." He told Haaretz in 2010 that as a boy in hiding, his biggest shock was that his identity "had to be blurred" when he temporarily adopted the non-Jewish sounding family name Tanzi.

Have you ever considered registering your business as an SGI supplier? In an effort to continue forging relationships with communities across Saskatchewan, SGI provides opportunities to compete on goods and services contracts.
SGI purchases IT equipment and services, furniture and supplies, forms, stationery, building and janitorial supplies, promotional advertising items and garage equipment. We also require building and construction services, consulting services, repair and maintenance of facilities and equipment, and cleaning services.
SGI maintains a database of suppliers who wish to bid on specific goods or services. In order to be considered for a goods and services contract, you should register your business with SGI. Please note that if you have previously registered your business through Saskatchewan Property Management you are not automatically registered with SGI or any of the province's other Crown corporations. To register, call or e-mail us for a Vendor Registration form. Upon receiving the completed form (and any catalogues or additional information you wish to provide), SGI will add your business to our list for future reference. You may update your listing at any time
For purchases of a dollar value under $10,000, quotations are requested. Formal tenders or Requests for Proposals are issued when the purchase is over $10,000.
SGI takes a number of factors into consideration when tendering goods and services contracts: Tenders for specific goods and/or services contracts are issued to vendors who have registered their business with SGI Corporate Purchasing and who are known to be a qualified vendor. Replies are directed to Corporate Purchasing and are held until the public opening. Vendors who have submitted a bid may attend the formal opening or be advised, upon request, of the results immediately following the tender opening. Where quality, service and delivery are substantially the same and where prices remain competitive, Saskatchewan vendors shall be used.
SGI handles Requests for Proposals in the same manner as tenders, but they are based on vendors proposing a solution for a particular requirement. Proposals are evaluated based on factors such as quality of solutions, price, experience and Saskatchewan content. Although Requests for Proposals must be directed to Corporate Purchasing, they are not subject to a public opening.
SGI's purchasing guidelines are straightforward. 1) Suppliers will have fair and open access to opportunities. 2) Competitive processes will be used when acquiring goods and services. 3) Decisions will consider best value. If you are interested in becoming a S.G.I. registered vendor please contact the Procurement Group and/or fill out the Vendor Registration Forms for S.G.I.

1 Better as a moviePosted: 11/03/2011Official Reviews have been severely plugged and do not represent the game truely. This game is nothing new like they have stated. The combat plays like an extremely simplified MMO.During this game you will essentially be going from A to B and selecting 1 of 3 dialogue options. The combat is messy because all the animations move too fast. Every "Character" and "monster" is portrayed as some sort of action super hero. This means, when you get to a dragon it suddenly becomes less epic because everything before you was "also" epic.The story for the first part is nothing exciting. No grand quest or epic adventure to embark uponThe character creation / customization is more limiting that Dragon Age 1. For example, Mages can only use staves now. Rogues can't use a shield etc... Plenty of abilities have been removed to make this game easier for the console gamer.The game also feels like it has tried to cut corners everywhere. For example, items do not even have their own image icon. Every item appears the same in your inventory.The dialogue is still "Vague". You do not really know what you are saying. However, they have increased the amount of dialogue options for all characters. Play this game twice or reload an old saved game and you'll see even small variations in the way people speak after selecting a different dialogue option.I can't stop you from buying this game but please, when playing, considering what it is you are actually enjoying.
4 One of the best yearPosted: 13/11/2009I'm very negative about games, this game is suprisingly good.The multiplayer has been ripped out so don't expect any online play with your friends through the campaign like baldurs gate and neverwinter nights.The dialogue is reasonable linear. You don't make many 'big decisions' but is much more than any rpg would offer.Limited classes and races. Even though this is not a dungeons and dragons game...i expected more...Less spells...more melee and ranged abilities.The best thing about this game is the fluent animations. Casting a spell goes smoothly into drawing your 2 swords out or another spell. Enemy monsters don't necessarily have to turn and face you to attack. They can attack you from behind, complete with an animation to show you that they are doing that, and still carry on looking forward at another party member.This makes the combat seem alot more interesting.Also, travelling with ai companions is made fun. For the first time i want to listen to the good voice acting. Hear what my ai companions have to say.I would say this game is atleast worth buying a used edition =)
1 Lacks ContentPosted: 13/11/2009No new content besides weapons and storyline (or StoryBlob)The campaign is about 4 hours. The biggest let down is the AI.Your team mates are designed to look pleasing in a fight. They rarely kill an enemy by themself. One enemy ran past 4 of my allied soldiers. 2 of which were shooting him but the bullets were evidently made of fairy dust =)Physics - Wouldn't mind some in Call of Duty. The most physics there seems to be is that your hand grenade throws like your bowling a plastic apple high. (Hand grenade now also have a white tracer)Multiplayer - Small maps, Small player limit. Would it be too much to ask to go back to large maps and 64 player limit with dedicated servers. Like the old call of duty? Or has technology got significantly worse in the last 10 years that our computers can't handle it.thank you
Everquest II: Rise Of Kunark (Full Game & 4 Expansion Packs) PC Games 1 New from £25.95 Free delivery Available used from £6.74
2 A 4 star game, Lame SupportPosted: 07/12/2007I enjoyed this. You will get lots of buttons to press at level 25. Roughly about 30 buttons. 10 of them will probobly be all be attack and have different animations. So the combat looks real nice. Being a new player I found it extremely hard to find my way around. The NPC's are useless at giving you directions when you take on a quest. The maps are quite big so exploring so have a fun time exploring. Garuntee you won't find what your looking for on the quest you just took though =)The game is really brought down by the support. I've asked for support a few times and its taken over a day to reply. Take note. If you already own Everquest 2. You will not get the 30 free days subscription if you already have had 30 days free subscription. So I feel conned out of this game and I will be going back to WoW where 90% of the time I will get the answer I was looking for rather than incorrect information.on an up note. Crafting is best I've seen in any game. You will get some skills/buttons to press whilst the item is being crafted which affects how good the item will be when its finished. There are thousands of things to craft.Well, I can't really say much more. This game has alot of content. You will reach the end of the game and still not know everything. Also, If you still enjoy World of Warcraft and want to play this game. Don't mention it in general chat. You will get slandered for hours and told that you are a kid. =) Crazy people

The iPad Pro
Posted by Ewen Rankin on Tuesday, 26 November 2013
The last time we did this, it has to be said, we were pretty close. This time we are two months sooner than we were last time and whilst there is a lot of time for Apple to change things, the basics are certainly here.
The iPad Pro is a definite.
According to our source deep in Apple, the announcement date will be at WWDC 2014 but possibly likely to slide in distribution to the late summer or even perhaps to the 'October iPad Period'. The only reason that Apple may keep to a early part of summer release could be the 'back to school' market who would be perhaps very likely candidates for this machine.
Imagine a Macbook Air meeting an iPad Air and thats the iPad Pro. Slightly thicker than an iPad Version One but with a more minimalistic bezel.
The unifying 64-Bit architecture of the last three iOS based devices has opened the door for a single development strategy that allows for unified backend programming to be simply altered to allow front end interaction. The beginning of that 'interaction' will be in Summer 2014.
The iPad Pro will carry the ability to run both OS X and iOS Applications. There will be access to both of the Apple App Stores on the device and where touch interaction is available, even with OS X programmes, then the iPad Pro will cater for that. Expect an OS X SDK update including lots of touch capabilities at WWDC next year. If you don't like the idea, then the iPad Pro will also support mouse inputs
The screen is currently being touted at 12.9 inches and the casing should be slightly thicker than an iPad Version One. Not a lot is certain on weight yet and with 5 months of hard development time before production runs begin, that would likely to change but the word from our source is a lot lighter than the 13″ Macbook Air
What wont change is the entry level memory. Its a 256GB SSD. There was no certainty on upgrades or availability of 512GB or higher but our source felt that this was 'likely'
So, at the moment, thats all we have. We'll keep you posted as there is more.

Carmel - 29/11/2007
Enjoyable dance to a good country/rock track. Have been taught this dance so far without the famed 11/2 turns, to suit the general class. Looking forward to trying the dance with the turns in once the class has managed the basic dance. Well done for snapping up this piece of crossover music Alan.
Lesley of ELBEE Stompers - 14/11/2007
Great Dance I just love spinning (Burling in Scottish terms)Have not taught the class yet i'm still trying to get over the watch & learn clip:-) where the guy nearly has kittens LOL
twinkletoes - 06/11/2007
adore this dance, a few find the turns a bit much but it is fairly easy to modify for those who don't want to turn as much, have always loved Bon Jovi so music added bonus, incidentally it reminded us of Somebody Like You so much we tried it to that, it fits even better to that than the Bon Jovi track, good dance, good music a winner for me
Bev Goldson of Body Rhythm - 02/11/2007
Bon Jovi!! Very mixed reaction from my classes over this one. I think you either love it or hate it. The dance fits well to the music, with either the turns or alternative. I quite like it but not everyones cuppa!
sandra - 17/10/2007
I really like this dance and love the music this is a dance to give some dancers more of a challange but you don't have to include all of the turns
valwhittington - 07/10/2007
Not had the reception from the classes that i thought it would get.I think for some taking the big turns out is quite confusing while learning the dance so maybe with time who knows? I like it!
troggie - 02/10/2007
mixed reaction in all my classes. some luv it, some dont. but its being requested and played at local socials
Sarah & Myra Buckin' Horses LDC - 12/09/2007
A great dance from alan that does remind you a little of 'somebody like you'!Alan came along to our Social Evening last week and danced it and it looked great! We taught this last night and it went down a storm, think we ended up playing it 5 times over!!!! Hope it stays around - music is great too!!
Val S - 12/09/2007
My fave at the mo. Love the music and dance fits well giving the progressive dancers more scope if they choose to. I take the easier options and listen to the music. I might even sing sometimes XX!!!
Geri - 08/09/2007
Love this dance and the track,fav at the mo
Timberline Steve - 07/09/2007
Great dance with loads of big turns fitting the music brilliantly! All turns can be reduced, leading to great variety on the floor! Tag is after 4 counts of the 4th wall! Restart is facing 3 o'c! (Some step sheets are confusing) Well worth dancing!!

Power Lunch
- Posted by Johanna on July 11, 2011 at 9:28 pm
- Category: Graphic Novel Reviews
- CREDITS: written by J. Torres; art by Dean Trippe
- PUBLISHER: Oni Press; $12.99 US
You might remember this concept from Oni's all-ages Free Comic Book Day offering this year. As we learned there, Joey has the unusual ability of getting superpowers from whatever he eats, so most of the time, he only eats boring white food. (It's the anti-Atkins kids' comic.)
This volume is much more a buddy story than a superhero tale, and that's the source of its charm. The emphasis is on making a friend and then protecting him. Joey's the new kid, and his new friend is Jerome. It's hard not to like Jerome, since he introduces himself like this:
Hey, you're the new weird kid.
I'm the old weird kid.
Jerome also looks remarkably like the Silver Age Jimmy Olsen, with his freckles, V-neck sweater, and bow tie. The bad-guy bully is Bug, giving Joey someone to safeguard Jerome from.
While the story is a bit predictable, given the setup, Dean Trippe's art is outstanding. I'm thrilled to see his work in a sequential format, after enjoying his single figure designs.
For a book aimed at the younger audience, I expected some of the plot points to be spelled out a little more clearly. There's no problem with an older reader figuring out what Joey is talking about, when it comes to his powers, but I'm not sure a kid will put it together. I suppose it depends on the kid and their age. Key elements are similarly left to implication — Joey dreams through half the book of trying out for the soccer team, questioning whether he should, given his abilities, but we don't see it happen, only hear about it in a throwaway line after. I felt like space was spent on scenes I already understood, while events I wanted to see were skipped over. But I don't want to turn this into "I would have told this story differently."
I was also unsure about the messages in the story — I would have rather seen Jerome be inspired by Joey to stand up for himself instead of having their friendship become unequal. On the other hand, the relationship shown is more traditionally "hero and sidekick". I found myself wondering what, exactly, the connection is between what Joey eats and the powers he gets. Maybe, in a future story, that will be spelled out more — something to look forward to.

Driver Rear-Ends Police Officer
El Paso – A woman crashed into a police car on I-10 while an officer was responding to a traffic collision Sunday morning.
While the officer was outside of the marked police unit, a 28-year old female driver collided with the patrol vehicle. As a result a 5-year old boy was transported to University Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries. The female driver and officer were not injured.
The Mustang sustained extensive damage to the front end and the marked patrol vehicle sustained severe rear-end damage. The driver was issued a citation for Failure to Control Speed Causing a Collision and Failure To Maintain Financial Responsibility (No Insurance).

Hi all,
Possibly a stupid question, I am not sure.
I have a 56 plate Cmax Ghia 2.0 TDCI and just had it serviced (37K on clock).
When stationery with or without your handbrake on and the engine ticking over, I have noticed the MPG dropping.
Is this normal?
As i always look at the MPG and not noticed it before.
I suppose it would make sense to drop as the engine is using diesel, but as I said I have never noticed it before and a friends does not do it.

Food Truck Mania
Just as the popular hot-dog is thinking about its retirement plan, today's finger food in the city that never sleeps is made in the little kitchens of the so-called food trucks, scattered all over New York.
Customers are not only excited tourists or hungry jaywalkers, but especially those New Yorkers that want to go for something quick yet tasty during their lunch breaks with the advantage of a breath of fresh air.
While the majority still serves hot-dog and French fries, more and more are specialized in middle-east food, Taiwanese dumplings, vegetable and fruit smoothies, waffles, gelato, pizzas and so on…
Craving for fried cutlets and potato salads? Stop by at Schnitzel for an authentic Austrian delicacy. And be patient, it's worth it waiting in line.
Or maybe in the mood of exotic spicy food?
There's Rick Shaw and its dumplings truck - waiting for you, with the choice of its chicken and Thai basil dumplings with peanut sauce or veggie dumpling with lemon dip for nine dollars, among the other specialties.
If you feel greedy for sweets, don't miss the fabulous Cup Cake Stop, the first mobile gourmet cupcake in New York, that features more than fifty different types of cupcakes, or fetch the finest Brussels waffles of Wafels & Dinger - and make your own waffle with any kind of topping for just five dollars.
And after a meal, what's better than an herbal tea or an ice-cream made daily at the Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream?
But don't forget to follow the food trucks on Twitter or check on their websites to find out more about their monthly schedules and locations.

The Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) Grant application opened recently and will close on August 10 at 5 p.m.
Since the program's introduction, it has been commonly viewed to be a funding source for career departments.
It is true that SAFER funds can be used to hire new firefighters and rehire those laid off, but the SAFER program is equally beneficial to volunteer and combination departments.
Under the recruiting and retention activities of the SAFER grant, volunteer and combination departments can apply for funding to acquire resources to recruit and/or retain firefighters.
Unlike most federal grant programs, this section of the SAFER grant is very flexible in the type of resources that you can fund through your application. The grant allows you to fix your problem with your own local solution, and you don't have to fit your solution into some predetermined federal program.
Choosing your approach to the SAFER Recruiting and Retention application is basically a three-step process:
Now you have laid the foundation for your application.
For example, if you are experiencing difficulty in attracting or keeping younger firefighters, then you may want to ask for funding to establish a junior, cadet or mentorship program.
Another example is initiating a live-in program. A number of volunteer stations are located in or near communities that have colleges or trade or technical schools. A live-in program could help pay these students' tuition expenses in exchange for their services in answering alarms.
Today a large number of prospective younger members are employed in positions that do not have health insurance. Health insurance, life insurance and length-of-service awards would be a great incentive to people in this situation. Wouldn't it be nice to tell a potential member that they could be eligible to receive health and life insurance if they met your department's eligibility standards through this program?
These are only suggestions. Your department knows the reason it hasn't been recruiting and retaining sufficient members.
Please don't think that your idea is too far-out to get funded. But remember that the grant will not pay for personal services to members. In other words, you can't use SAFER funding to hire someone to shovel your members' snow-covered driveways so they can get to the fire station.
The first step in preparing a completive application for SAFER funding is to determine the barriers that your department is facing in recruiting and/or retaining firefighters.
The next step is to decide what incentives you can offer individuals in your area to overcome these barriers and become volunteer firefighters.
You still have sufficient time to develop a competitive application for submission before the program closes. If you need assistance in preparing your application, FireGrantsHelp is only an email or phone call away.
