Tobacco bag stringing: Life and labor in the Depression
Throughout the tobacco-growing regions of the American South during the Great Depression, individuals and families earned much-needed income by sewing drawstrings into small cotton tobacco bags. This website presents images and text from a report in the North Carolina Collection at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill documenting tobacco bag stringing work in North Carolina and Virginia in 1939.
Internet Medieval Sourcebook
Historians teaching medieval history surveys almost always want to combine a textbook, a sourcebook, and additional readings. Textbooks, as an ever-evolving form, are probably worth the cost, but sourcebooks are often unnecessarily expensive. Unlike some modern history texts, the sources used for medieval history have been around a long time. Very many were translated in the 19th century, and, as a rapid review of any commercial source book will show, it is these 19th century translations which
Internet Modern History Sourcebook
The Internet Modern History Sourcebook is one of series of history primary sourcebooks. It is intended to serve the needs of teachers and students in college survey courses in modern European history and American history, as well as in modern Western Civilization and World Cultures. Although this part of the Internet History Sourcebooks Project began as a way to access texts that were already available on the Internet, it now contains hundreds of texts made available locally.
14 - Never Call Retreat: Military and Political Turning Points in 1863
Professor Blight lectures on the military history of the early part of the war. Beginning with events in the West, Blight describes the Union victories at Fort Donelson and Fort Henry, introduces Union General Ulysses S. Grant, and narrates the horrific battle of Shiloh, fought in April of 1862. Moving back East, the lecture describes the Union General George McClellan's abortive 1862 Peninsula campaign, which introduced the world to Confederate General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. The lecture co
Digital Durham
For many years scholars have recognized that late nineteenth-century Durham, North Carolina makes an ideal case study for examining emancipation, industrialization, immigration, and urbanization in the context of the New South. "With its tobacco factories, textile mills, black entrepreneurs, and new college," the historian Syd Nathans observes, "Durham was a hub of enterprise and hope." By the early twentieth century, Durham became renowned for its vibrant entrepreneurial spirit. Both W.E.B. Du
A Friend of Their Minds: Capitalizing on the Oral Tradition of My African American Students
Yvonne Divans Hutchinson is a National Board certified teacher who has focused for many years on developing strategies to engage all her students in substantive discussions of literary texts and the issues those texts raise for their own lives. In this approach, she builds on the oral traditions of her students African-American and Latino cultures and seeks to support the development of their literacy skills through high standards, explicit expectations, and rigorous literature experiences. Her
Culturally Engaged Instruction (CEI): Putting theory into practice
As an English teacher at a rural all-Black high school in the Mississippi Delta, Renee Moore enjoyed a genuine fellowship with her students, many of whom she worked with outside of school in church and community activities. Lessons in literature and writing went reasonably well (for a beginning teacher), but when she started to teach grammar, her students seemed to 'hit a brick wall.' She had two simultaneous responses to the wall. She immediately started searching for and experimenting with mor
Western Civilization Course Portfolio
This portfolio documents the teaching in a Western Civilization survey course at Texas Tech that took a thematic approach to investigate a number of the most important developments from the 17th Century to the Fall of Communism. The portfolio focuses on the impact of hypermedia on student learning and includes samples of student work, student evaluations, and peer comments.
Diversity in the Changing State
The Gold Rush had a tremendous impact on the population and culture of California. Before the Gold Rush, the population consisted mainly of Native Californians and Californios (settlers and landowners of mixed Spanish, Native Californian, and African descent). But gold fever brought people to California from all over the country and world. The Anglo Americans (of English, Irish, or Scots descent), other Europeans (including Italians, Russians, and others), Chinese, Asians, African Americans, and
Dust Bowl Migration
In 1931, a severe drought hit the Southern and Midwestern plains. As crops died and winds picked up, dust storms began. As the "Dust Bowl" photograph shows, crops literally blew away in "black blizzards" as years of poor farming practices and over-cultivation combined with the lack of rain. By 1934, 75% of the United States was severely affected by this terrible drought.The one-two punch of economic depression and bad weather put many farmers out of business. In the early 1930s, thousands of Dus
Early Advertising
The modern advertising industry really began in the early 1900s. These early advertising images show how companies approached the business of selling products, places, and ideas in the early 20th century.
The promotion of products, particularly national brands, began to become more prevalent in the early 1900s. Some categories of advertising shown in this group of images are still with us today: cars, cigarettes, and products aimed at homemakers. In California, car dealers and garages
Growing Ethnic Diversity
People from around the world continued to come to California in the early 1900s, many in search of work and a better life.
These images reflect some of the diverse ethnic groups that came to the West Coast from locations around the globe. They also illustrate some of the challenges they faced in assimilating into California society.
Hard Times
The US stock market crash of 1929 set off the most severe economic depression in the Western world. The so-called Great Depression lasted more than a decade, until approximately 1941. In the United States, the general atmosphere was one of desolation, as expressed in the Dorothea Lange photograph "Thirteen Million Unemployed Fill the City in the Early Thirties," which shows men leaning against a wall in San Francisco. Many photographs in this topic were taken by Lange, one of the primary chronic
Help and a New Deal
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (photographed in 1935 with his wife, Eleanor) created the New Deal as a solution for bringing the United States out of the Great Depression. The New Deal created a new role for the federal government, one that involved infusing money into the economy largely through the creation of new jobs and social programs. One photograph shows Roosevelt signing the Social Security Act of 1935, which was designed to keep citizens from becoming destitute. The New Deal also
Japanese American Internment
After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which established 10 internment camps for "national security" purposes. Although most internment camps were along the West Coast, others could be found in Wyoming and Colorado, and as far east as Arkansas. One photo shows Japanese American boys in San Francisco shortly before the evacuation order; another shows a woman waiting for the evacuation bus in Hayward; approximately 660 people being evacuated
Life on the Home Front
As the picture of the 1942 Santa Ana High School graduating class shows, uniformed graduates were headed into the service right after graduation day some may have been volunteers and others drafted. Those who weren't eligible for service could volunteer to help the war effort at home. As the images in this topic show, people at home contributed to the war effort in a variety of ways. Many people readied for possible enemy attack. In one photograph men carry glass globes that will dim street lam
Native American Assimilation
Beginning in the 1700s, the Spaniards built the California Missions to make contact with Native Americans in the hope of converting them to Christianity. One painting by a Russian artist depicts a group of Native Americans dancing in front of Mission Dolores in San Francisco; a later photograph shows a group of nuns with westernized native children in front of the Pala Mission in Southern California. As European Americans continued to migrate West throughout the 1800s, they came into conflict wi
Struggles for Social Justice
The 1960s and early 1970s were characterized by a series of protests as groups that had long felt disempowered sought to make their voices heard. California was the heart of many of these new movements. The protests put into motion by the Civil Rights movement evolved to address social justice issues affecting many groups, including students facing the draft, ordinary people protesting the war, farm workers fighting for better working conditions, Chicanos expressing a new identity, and African A
By the late 1960s, despite the ongoing Civil Rights movement, frustration over poverty, discrimination, injustice, and high unemployment among African Americans helped fuel unrest in many poor, black urban areas. On August 11, 1965, sparked by an angry confrontation between a white police officer and an African American motorcyclist, the Watts neighborhood in Los Angeles erupted in a large-scale civil disorder that lasted for six days and became known as the Watts Riots. Thirty-four people were

I'm considering buying an A-Bolt Stainless Stalker 270 or a Remington 700 Mountain LSS 270. I'm leaning toward the A-Bolt. But because the two shops in my area don't carry the A-Bolt in the Stalker model in inventory I'm concerned about the stock being of 'boat paddle' variety. If I go to a synthetic stock I want it to be like a Bell & Carlson quality. Any insight on this and/or the A-Bolt vs. the Mountain LSS? The gun will probably be taking some fair abuse as it's for my teenage boys to shoot pig, blacktail & mule deer. Thanks much,

Ken Price at work (Photo: LACMA)
I am especially fond of an essay written some time ago by William Deresiewicz (author of the recently released Excellent Sheep: The Miseducation of the American Elite and the Way to a Meaningful Life) that appeared in the Chronicle of Higher Learning titled The End of Solitude.
Deresiewicz traces the idea of solitude through history, from the early Greek era through Romanticism, Modernism and now Postmodernism. Turns out solitude has gone in and out of fashion. During certain periods, such as the Romantic age, it was highly valued. At other times, like our own, much less so.
But it is his commentary on our era's particular proclivities that caught my attention this week:
Celebrity and connectivity are both ways of becoming known. This is what the contemporary self wants. It wants to be recognized, wants to be connected: It wants to be visible. If not to the millions, on Survivor or Oprah, then to the hundreds, on Twitter or Facebook. This is the quality that validates us, this is how we become real to ourselves—by being seen by others. The great contemporary terror is anonymity. If Lionel Trilling was right, if the property that grounded the self, in Romanticism, was sincerity, and in modernism it was authenticity, then in postmodernism it is visibility.
That quote spoke directly to two novels I have read recently that feature women artists—The The Blazing World by Siri Hustvedt (and which I have written about previously here) and The Woman Upstairs, by Claire Messud.
While very different books by two very different writers (neither of whom has been a visual artist BTW), the female protagonist in each is devoted to her art making but has been unsuccessful in her career. Whether that lack of success is fair or unfair is less to the point of either book; more apropos is that both women have been deeply wounded—perhaps one might even say maimed—by their invisibility in a profession that has become as fickle, youth-centered and image conscious as Hollywood, a world where money and connections matter infinitely more than the once sought after qualities of talent, commitment and vision. As a result, both of these artists are full of rage. The anger in both of these books just seethes out of the pages, like oil from an unwieldy container.
For those of us—and that "us" is legion—who operate below the radar screen of auction houses and blue chip pricing, rage that enormous is not unfamiliar. The old line about the fate of the elderly—you can either be crazy or bitter, pick one—applies to aging artists as well. I have never doubted which one I prefer.
While female and minority artists have been discriminated against in every previous era and mostly overlooked, an artist's rage at feeling invisible is gender and race blind. In my conversations with artist friends from my days in New York City in the 1970s—practicing artists who are now entering their 6th, 7th and 8th decades of life—this is a topic that invariably comes up. Some say they are, like the graciously non-game playing artist Ken Price, reconciled to living their lives out without visibility and accolades. But others struggle more openly with feeling bitter, and they believe those who don't acknowledge the same are just masters of denial. Underneath all that talk of not caring they say, every artist harbors a deep hunger to be seen and acknowledged.
It is not my place to dissect the artist's secret self, but I do believe our era's particular obsession with visibility is in fact a disability for many who need quiet, solitude, focus and isolation to make their art and do their work. In this high connectivity world, it requires an explicit and concerted effort to carve out that private cave time, to keep the channels that are feeding our process free of noise and clutter. The rest is, in my opinion, a secondary concern.
But saying doesn't make it so. Our world is our world, and its values are ambient. Thankfully there are heroes like Ken Price. I take pleasure in reading this quote from Dave Hickey's essay in Ken Price Sculpture: A Retrospective, Price's posthumous show catalog:
There are, of course, actual downsides to working small, strange and far away, up in the high country outside of Taos, but Price has kept his own counsel on these. He tells his friends that he thinks of his time on earth in the studio as a gift, so why ask for more?… "Kenny is very pure," Billy [Al Bengston] says, "and very stubborn, a poet and a philosopher. He doesn't care about fame or money."

24 year old man | San Marcos, TX, USA | Seeking women 21-35 within 25 miles
Active within 24 hours
Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hello I'm Chris, a recent college grad and just moved to San Marcos a couple months ago to start my new career and have been loving the job. If you are looking for the kind of guy who can admit to actually liking the Notebook then look no further! Activities that require athleticism are a passion of mine and it would be great if I met a match that would be up to do a Tough Mudder or something like that together!

Ok J
I am a vintage aficionado as you guys J. Have about ~50 computers in my collection, all worked when placed in collection and some I use for demos. Have a dedicated room in the house. Have 70s and 80s computers (mostly 80s).
I just got this DEC PDP – private sale, seems to be extremely well taken care of but something happened during shipping (maybe)? Was packed by UPS and they seemed to do a great job.
One of the connectors inside the DSD unit was disconnected during shipping – does that mean it got jostled strongly? The connector is quite snug when connected, so I would assume it was kinda loose, because to loosen it with a "drop" it would have to been dropped from quite a height…
Still trying several options.
Yes, spindle and head were locked, both unlocked now I believe (using the instructions from the manual…).
I live in West Lafayette – go Boilermakers!

head carriage. BUT...be very careful rotating the spindle by hand! In
some drive designs, turning it backward can cause the head to dig into
the media.

NH 48 Hour Film Project draws fun, creative folks
While most were comedies, Herman said that some filmmakers took the risk of creating dramas, like the filmmaking team behind "No Regrets," a thriller-type movie that culminates in a murder.
"This is so awesome, we had so much fun making it, but I am so nervous about so many people watching it," she said.
"This festival is something I look forward to every year, I have done this all five years," he said.
"It was a challenge but it was always fun, and it is great they have something like this for people who love making and watching movies," he said.
"It is cool, it is quirky, it is fun," Ruth Beland of Manchester said about the festival.
Her friend Debbie Tsouprakakis agreed, and added, "it blows my mind how creative the filmmaking teams are, and all the different ways they approach everything."
"Without the support of businesses like MacEdge in Portsmouth, Cinemagic and the Union Leader, we wouldn't be able to give all these talented filmmakers an outlet for their craft."

Just unpacked my buggy and it's serial number is mb2-t121, dated March 2013. MB2 appears to be the latest model (now is May 2013).

Great Ride and Great Features
I have used many jogging strollers, all the big names but Mountain Buggy is my favorite. Here is why- easy to collapse, like 5 seconds or less; front wheel spins free and locks, but has 5 degrees of "play" so you can still steer it while running; love the bottle holders; window in canopy to peak at my kiddo while running; Canopy moves around so you can position to block wind or sun; easily stores vertically by itself not hanging; and lastly it is a jogging stroller not a trailer trying to be a stroller BIG difference.

Screening for Fun and Profit Is Not Getting Easier
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The mark of a good stock screen, in my view, is not only whether it produces solid results, but also its ability to identify investment candidates in all sorts of market environments.
That is a very tall order.
I've had plenty of success with the former. However, my value investing-based screens have had difficulty with the latter in this rising market environment. Every day, it seems, it becomes more difficult to identify value, but that comes with the territory.
I've known value managers who simply won't buy in market environments where they can't find stocks that meet their criteria, and they will not compromise by lowering their standards.
One year ago, I identified a list of potentially cheap small and midcap names with solid net profit margins and growing, sustainable dividends, based on the following criteria:-
Market capitalization between $100 million and $5 billion
Net profit margin of at least 8% for the trailing 12 months and for the latest fiscal year
Dividend yield greater than 1%
At least four consecutive years of increasing dividends
Payout ratio less than 50%
Price earnings ratio of less than 20

School Library Journal
09/01/2013Gr 2–4—Guglielmo Marconi's childhood fascination with radio waves drove his reading, study, and experimentation. Despite his lack of success in school, he learned from tutors, including a retired telegraph operator who taught him Morse code. Marconi's experiments resulted in devices to send and receive messages over long distances. By the time he was 21, he had invented a wireless telegraph, which he demonstrated in England. Among the users was Queen Victoria, who communicated with her son on the royal yacht. In 1901, Marconi's device made the first transcontinental wireless transmission when a signal from Cornwall, England, reached St. John's, Newfoundland. Kulling's biography ends with that achievement before Marconi turned 30. Curiously, the only example she offers of how his discoveries influenced the future is the role the telegraph played in events surrounding the sinking of the Titanic. Rudnicki's acrylic illustrations do little to enhance the text. The people seem wooden and their surroundings are static. Still, libraries needing additional biographies of inventors to supplement collections might consider this volume since there is little coverage of Marconi for this audience.—Kathy Piehl, Minnesota State University, Mankato

On my old computer, when I use Command-R to run a python script in Textmate 2, it opens an output window. If I run the script again, Textmate closes the previous terminal window and creates a new one. Now, I have installed Textmate on a new computer and the behavior is different: each time I use Command-R, a new window opens. Now I have dozens of windows to close. Is there anyway to restore the old behavior?

We chose three of our favorite recipes, one with each vinegar, so that you can make the most out of your Di Bruno Bros. experience. Then you can take these recipes and compare with your own menu at home, so you can dress, drizzle, and glaze every recipe with the perfect compliment.
During the month of June, Di Bruno Bros. participated in several fabulous fundraising events showcasing the culinary creativity of our Chef Rob Sidor. On June 14th, 2011 Di Bruno Bros. participated in the 2011 Great Chefs Event supporting Alex's Lemonade Stand. Over 1,100 guests enjoyed the beautiful venue at the Urban Outfitters Headquarters in the Navy […]
People are always asking you questions, so you have to learn stuff constantly. For example, when I started I didn't know about vegetarian rennet [a coagulant used in cheesemaking], but customers would come to the counter and ask for "vegetarian cheese." Now I know to point them toward Portuguese cheeses, like La Serena, Gardunha, and Azeitao. They're all made with rennet from cardoons, which are like thistles.
Until I really got into cheese a few years ago, I never considered eating a hunk of the hard stuff, like Parm or Pecorino, unless it was grated. Now I know better. Some of the tastiest cheeses are relegated to "accents" in part because they have so much flavor. Eat them just as they are, without starches or sauces, and you'll be surprised how delicious they are.
One of the most enjoyable perks of being a Di Bruno's cheese monger is what we like to refer to as culinary pioneering. Sniffing down leads and gathering information (and the occasional sample) of new and exciting cheese is a constantly rewarding and exciting process. If being at Di Bruno's gives an enterprising cheese lover a chance to be a culinary pioneer then the constantly expanding and always changing world of Artisan cheese represents the frontier of the gourmet food world which a cheese monger has to move toward to stay on top of their game.
Di Bruno Bros. has new specials, starting today! Stop by one of our retail locations and grab some goodies while the deals are still hot!
I have decided to do a blog post about cheeseburgers, the ultimate in summertime grill traditions. The plan is to reinvent the American classic, ranging from super gourmet, to the down right greasy and delicious. Un-notch your belt and get ready enter flavor country with my salute to cheeseburgers.
Cheese and meat, meat and cheese, easily my two favorite things to sell at Di Bruno Brothers. When you have two great things (much like peanut butter and jelly) sometimes you have to mix them together!
Waking up in Amsterdam for the first time is like waking up on Christmas day. The excitement was palpable and expectations were high as I rolled out of bed and meandered through the morning routine. Today, we are touring Friesland with Betty Koster. Betty is the owner of the L'Amuse Cheese Shop, the finest in Amsterdam, and is an international ambassador for all Dutch cheeses.
Homemade pizza is one of my favorite dishes to prepare and I love experimenting with different cheeses and toppings. This week I decided to make a three cheese pizza. I started with my two staple cheeses, Di Bruno's handmade mozzarella and 30 month Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Capstone Turbine Corporation Secures Follow-on Order For Six C65s From Large Natural Gas Producer With Current Capstone Fleet Exceeding One Million Operating Hours
CHATSWORTH, Calif., March 17, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capstone Turbine Corporation ( www.capstoneturbine.com ) (Nasdaq:CPST), the world's leading clean technology manufacturer of microturbine energy systems, today announced it sold six additional C65s to a prominent natural-gas producer whose current fleet of 49 Capstone microturbines has exceeded 1 million run time hours.
Pumps & Service, the Capstone Turbine distributor responsible for selling and securing the robust fleet of natural gas microturbines since 1999, indicated that the six additional C65 microturbines will expand the producer's minigrid system in New Mexico's San Juan Basin. The six new C65 microturbines, which will be installed in June, will be part of a microturbine generation station that provides power to pumping and water transfer units at remote sites via a complex underground electrical system.
"This is Pumps & Service's longest running project using Capstone microturbines," said Jim Crouse, Capstone's Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "With extremely remote wellsites in mountainous terrain that averages 6,500 feet in elevation, the producer needs an exceptionally reliable power source. Many of the microturbines in this company's fleet have run for 12 years. They are incredibly durable."
In Northern New Mexico's rugged mountains, wellsites often are located five miles or more from a central facility. The central facility is key to the production process because it collects water pumped from the ground at each remote site. Traditionally, the water has been hauled through the rugged terrain by truck to the central facility, making the production process extremely expensive. Capstone microturbines allow the producer to pump water from tanks at each wellsite to a central water disposal facility, where the water is then returned to the ground, thus eliminating the need for water hauling. In addition to significantly lowering costs, the removal of water trucks from the mountain roads eliminates harmful emissions and excessive dust.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

->''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWueAam-w-c "I ask you: Do you want total war? If necessary, do you want a war more total and radical than anything that we can even imagine today?"]]''
-->-- '''Joseph Goebbels''', Sportpalast speech, 18 February 1943
World War II, or the Second World War (often abbreviated as WWII or [=WW2=]), was a global war fought from 1939 to 1945. It involved 62 out of the 73 existent nations at that time, which eventually formed two loose, opposing military alliances: the Allies or Allied powers (China, France, the UK, the USA, the USSR among others) against the Axis powers (chiefly UsefulNotes/NaziGermany, UsefulNotes/FascistItaly and UsefulNotes/ImperialJapan).
World War II is most commonly described as having been fought in two main theaters of war[[note]]There were also relatively minor skirmishes, bombings or other actions in other portions of the world such as in the Arctic, North America, and the South Atlantic, but essentially they were the most extreme geographic outliers of the two main theaters[[/note]]. The European Theater was the conflict between the Allied Powers against Germany, Italy and their European allies. This conflict was fought not only in Europe, but in the Atlantic Ocean and North Africa. This conflict began with the invasion of Poland in September of 1939 and ended in May 1945 with the fall of Berlin and Prague. The Pacific Theater was the conflict fought between the Allies and Imperial Japan in the Pacific Ocean and Asia, which also included some action in the Indian Ocean. This conflict was born out of the UsefulNotes/SecondSinoJapaneseWar which started when the Japanese Empire invaded China in July 1937. This war became part of the 'world war' proper when Japan attacked American and British territories in December 1941.
It was the most intensive and extensive war in history, with more than 100 million people serving in military units. In a state of "total war", the major participants eventually placed their entire financial, industrial, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, thereby erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Marked by significant events involving (organized) massacres and genocides, including UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust, large-scale aerial bombardment of civilian populations and the only use of nuclear weapons in warfare, it resulted in some 50 to 70 million dead (some higher estimates go to a nice round 100 million by counting the unborn... or just by simple, and usually not deliberate, miscounting[[note]] One infamous error made by someone compiling figures for military dead, missing, and wounded in the Soviet-German War/Ostfront was made by someone missing a zero, thereby claiming that a Soviet force lost more troops in a single operation/campaign ''than there were in the entire Red Army''. Someone else also arrived at an infamous estimate of 40+ million Soviet dead (versus a usual estimate of no more than 28 million) during the war by effectively mis-counting 'wounded' soldiers as 'dead' soldiers (no more than 20-30% of 'wounded' soldiers died at any point; this guy assumed that it was considerably more than that) and failing to account for the Poles ethnically cleansed (forcibly evicted) from the western USSR in the immediate post-war period. Although the USSR was supposedly his specialty, he also put Chinese dead at 30-40 million (versus a usual estimate of no more than c.10-20 million) by choosing the highest possible estimate of war-dead and attributing the c.10 million dead of the later Chinese Civil War and post-war CCP purges (1946-50) to the Sino-Japanese War (1937-45). This is how he managed to arrive at a figure of 100 million dead, even though there's really no way it could've been more than 70. [[/note]]) - making this war the deadliest and costliest conflict in human history.

!Tropes originating from the war:
%% Only list tropes originating from or named by the people, events and organizations of WW2.
* AdolfHitlarious: This was how the Allied media portrayed Hitler at the time. [[FunnyAneurysmMoment The revelation of]] UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust [[FunnyAneurysmMoment kind of put an end to it.]] It's gotten a resurgence in recent years.
* AllGermansAreNazis: Unfortunately, though the war is long past, the ugly shadow of NaziGermany endures, and inevitably colors some perceptions of the German people or [[GodwinsLaw some political debates and Internet discussions]].
* AmericaWinsTheWar: The US's media depictions of the war are often accused of ignoring the contributions of other states, nations, and nation-states to (winning) the war - with the USSR's pivotal role in particular [[FanonDiscontinuity being almost completely ignored]] due to (lingering) [[UsefulNotes/HistoryOfTheColdWar Cold-War]] [[RedScare anti-Communist]] sentiment. Post-Soviet Russian media might now quite justly be accused of ''Russia Wins The War'' due to it ignoring both the contributions of the other republics that made up the USSR (Ukraine, Estonia, etc.. etc.) as well as all the other countries and peoples who fought The Axis.
** An inverse trope might well be 'Nazis Fight Alone'. The only Axis troops ever seen in most media are the Germans - the Italians very rarely make an appearance (aside from North Africa, but not always), and the Hungarians, Slovaks, Romanians, Bulgarians, Finns, and various SS volunteer units like the Northland (Scaninavians), Charlemagne (French), and Blue (Spanish) divisions are almost entirely absent. Quisling logistics troops, like the Hiwis, are also never seen.
** AmericaWinsTheWar is not completely unjustified. During WWII the US had over half of the manufacturing capability of the entire world and was able to build ships faster than the Axis could sink them. One American ship was built in four days and it is no joke to say that the USSR rode into Berlin on American Jeeps because the USSR was given massive amounts of American surplus.
* CheeseEatingSurrenderMonkeys: The TropeMaker in the world's consciousness. The truth is a lot more complex. While few people (like General UsefulNotes/CharlesDeGaulle) saw the point in fighting on once France had 'already lost' The Battle Of France - Marshall Pétain's coup had a lot of popular support - and they saw no hope of Germany ever being defeated. But once they became ''certain'' that Germany would lose the war (Stalingrad, North Africa, Kursk) [[LaResistance resistance groups were founded]] and were ready to welcome The Allies' return with some of the best espionage work the world has ever seen. General de Gaulle's Free French Forces also contributed several thousand combat troops to battles such as Bir Hakeim, Monte Cassino and Ouistreham (on Operation Overlord's D-Day), and once France was liberated they formed an army several hundred thousand strong to take over support roles and free up Anglo-American troops for the front lines.
* LesCollaborateurs: The TropeNamer was the Government of Vichy in France. See also TheQuisling below.
* FinalSolution: [[TropeNamers Trope Namer]] and TropeCodifier. Nazis referred to ''die Endlösung der Judenfrage'', "the FinalSolution to the Jewish Question."
** It should be noted the image most people gained from the popular media (crematoria, burning pits, gas chambers, fierce guards with dogs, [[MadDoctor experiments on people]] and so on) comes from the final phase of UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust, the extermination of Hungarian and Transylvanian Jews, [[NightmareFuel when the death industry finally broke down overloaded with dead bodies]]. This is the plain reason [[Film/SchindlersList for which we have survivors to tell the tales]], because at that moment there were people to escape or survive. Previous campaigns of mass murder (euthanasia of the mentally disabled, extermination of the Soviet prisoners, extermination of Jews in Operation Reinhard camps in Poland) were so efficient they barely left any survivors.
--> ''"Auschwitz was a walk in the park compared to Treblinka"'' - Hershl Sperling, [[http://dalyhistory.wordpress.com/2010/05/27/treblinka-survivor-by-mark-s-smith/ Holocaust survivor]]
* IwoJimaPose: TropeMaker, TropeNamer, and TropeCodifier. Associate Press photographer Joseph John Rosenthal took a photo depicting five [[SemperFi Marines]] and a Navy corpsman raising the US flag atop Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima. It has since become one of the [[ArtImitatesArt most iconic images in history]], and the photo has come to symbolize US Marine operations in the Pacific Theater. It also formed the basis for the US Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington, Virginia. The flag itself, [[{{ItMakesSenseInContext}} along with the first one which it replaced]], can be seen on rotating display at the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Museum_of_the_Marine_Corps National Museum of the Marine Corps]] in Quantico, VA.
* LaResistance: The TropeNamer was active during this war in France, but every occupied country had a resistance movement to one degree or another. Some countries actually had more than one movement - e.g. a communist one plus a monarchist one ([[WeAreStrugglingTogether it wasn't unusual for them to end up fighting each other as well]]). China had so many turncoats-turned-resistance fighters-turned-bandits that the historical community generally wrings its hands and splits it up into local and regional warlords, nationalist guerrillas, communist guerrillas and Chinese Communist Party guerrillas, with some room for overlap.
* MusicToInvadePolandTo
* NazisWithGnarlyWeapons
* NoSwastikas: The entire rationale behind the taboos on the swastika and the Rising Sun, in fact.
* NothingIsTheSameAnymore: The entire contemporary world is forged in the aftermath of the Second World War. No facet of modern life, social mores, culture, science and general worldview was left untouched. The Allied Powers created several institutions such as United Nations, NATO, the World Bank, as well as start an ongoing debate about nuclear weapons (that is still ongoing) and human rights abuses and government measures to curtail the same.
* TheQuisling: TropeNamer [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vidkun_Quisling Vidkun Quisling]], who betrayed his country to the Nazis and got stood up in front of a firing squad after the war. Other Quislings of World War II include President Wang Jingwei of China, Marshal Philippe Pétain and Prime Minister Pierre Laval of France and General Andrei Vlasov of The Soviet Union. Quisling, Laval and Vlasov were (tortured and) executed, Pétain's death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment due to his advanced age and (by that time) severe dementia, and Jingwei died of natural causes before the war was over.
* Many, ''many'' {{Reichstropen}}.
* StukaScream: TropeMaker, TropeNamer, and TropeCodifier. Some versions of the German Ju 87 Stuka dive bomber were fitted with ''Jericho-Trompete'' sirens, which would make [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObJV_PITRjA a distinctive screaming sound]] to intimidate the targets of their attacks. American SBD Dauntless dive bombers had holes in their dive flaps that had a similar effect, the sound being described as a banshee wail.
** The Jericho Trumpet was removed from later models of the Stuka, as the Germans quickly came to the conclusion that equipping a bomber with its own air raid siren to warn the enemy was [[AwesomeButImpractical counter-productive.]]
* StupidJetpackHitler: NaziGermany developed some advanced technologies that were ahead of their time, such as the first operational jet airplanes, ballistic missiles and cruise missiles. German scientists also played a key role in the development of the US and Soviet ballistic missile and space programs after the war. But no jetpacks.
* ThoseWackyNazis: The trope became popular because of the German occupation of Europe, the Nazis' war crimes and the Holocaust.
* WartimeCartoon

Great addition to my lathe tools

Comments about Sorby Oval Skew Chisel 1/2" :
I do quite a large amount of turning for the small woodworking business. I like the versitility of this tool due to the oval shape of the shank of the tool. It allows me to attack the wood in ways not possible with the old rectangular type skew. This tool works really well standing on its edge but if you are not really comfortable with your lathe, I do not recommend it for beginners. I highly recommend this as a great tool for more advanced woodturners.

Reviews of Kwihala Camp
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Kwihala Camp review
You should be complimented on this place - it's a real find! The location and staff were just amazing. The emphasis here is for those with a detailed technical interest in Natural History.
Our guide, Steve Roskelly was a true expert of all things 'bush' and great company at a social level. This camp was more for the specialist/adventure seeker rather than those who would just want to relax and get the occasional game drive. We were organised for 05.30 starts, what a pain, but soon realised that it was essential to get the best out the limited time.
Evening meals to the roar of lions in the vicinity, massive millipedes crawling up the tent walls! The high altitude and damper climate gave a rich diversity of flora and fauna than I have seen on previous safaris with diverse insect and plant life in addition to the usual big game.
The dense bush gave a few surprises - leopard, as we rounded a corner on a dirt road; elephant interrupted in passage at 6m distant with testosterone charged male but we 'escaped' by sitting tight until things calmed; buffalo at close quarters: we felt safe with Steve!
An experience of a lifetime - would love to do it all over again!!
Kwihala Camp review
We arrived from Selous after a lengthy and interesting flight ,to find a very different environment in Ruaha,much drier with different terrain, with hills and rocky outcrops. It was really very hot,( 39 deg) due to a delay in the rains arriving, and the open position of the camp and tents meant that in the middle of the day we suffered a bit. The camp will be in a new position from next season with better shelter, and I believe fans in the rooms which will be very welcome!
That said the camp is well furnished and the tents are comfortable . Food was excellent, especially considering the remoteness of the camp and the limitations of a "bush kitchen". Communal meals were served in the main mess tent, or just outside in the open.
We saw a huge herd of buffalo on several occasions and many elephants ,including herds with very young calves and a couple of big bulls with impressive tusks. The resident big male Lions proved elusive, though we did get close to a couple of prides and some very young cubs that we watched for quite a long time.
While we were here , we were introduced to a film crew who were fiming a documentary for national geographic about interactions between lions and buffalos. The Ruaha apparently being a good area to observe these. We were told by Marius, the resident manager/guide that there has been a change in the local Lion population with the main pride fragmenting and being much smaller than of late. This has led to problems hunting large prey such as buffalo.
We were very impressed by Marius's skills as a guide with extensive knowledge of much of Africa as well as the Ruaha. We had three seperate leopard sightings, each one being rather brief unfortunately. We also encountered a group of 4 magnificent mature Kudu bulls . Other sightings included a rare glimpse of a serval and two distant cheetah. We spottted many bird species, including Ostrich,bustards,Giant eagle owls, several hawk species and vultures as well as many smaller species.The heat meant that after mid morning sightings were less good as all the wildlife was sheltering from the sun.
We had an early morning walk when we found remains of enormous scorpions and saw columns of big black matabele ants hunting, and looked around the rocky outcrop that will be the sight of the new, possibly permanent camp., which sounds an exciting project with a raised terrace on a rocky outcrop, with 360 deg views over the countryside
In the camp there were many Lizards including bright orange and blue rock agamas which scuttled away as soon as we approached and seemed to be living between the double tent roof layers!
If I had a complaint it would be that considering that much of the time there were only two couples in the camp, it might have been better if two game vehicles were used on the drives to give each couple a more personal experience. We felt that it was a bit of a compromise in our case as the other couple were mostly interested in the birdlife. This is not a serious complaint and it may not have been possible to use two vehicles, due to staffing etc. This being a dry area there were of course no boat activities, but the walk did provide a change.
All in all we had a very good experience in Kwihala, and found the staff to be friendly and helpful,and I am sure that the new camp will be even better.
Kwihala CAmp review
This camp was the highlight of our stay in Tanzania. Beautiful tents were widely spaced to give maximum privacy. Service was exceptional - even the drawers were tidied and clothes refolded.
The bucket showers provided a touch of the real bush experience. Without doubt, however, our stay was made 'special' by the guiding of Marius. Marius has a true passion and is very happy to share it liberally. We were happilly riisng each day at 5 to be off by half past to experience the African sunrise.
Game viewing was excellent - two lion prides, leopards and 700+ buffalo - lots of bird life. We are old African hands but we found we still had much to learn.
Kwihala Camp review
what not to like, excellent camp, attentive staff superb meals.
game drives not done to a timetable but dictated by what was to be seen and possibly found. an exhilarating and new experience on how game viewing can be done.
Kwihala Camp review
Little gem of a camp and a great recommendation. Fantastic guide Pietro - one of the best guides I have ever had in 30+ visits to Africa. In 3 full days had 3 cheetah sightings (including hunting), 3 leopard sightings, and too many lion sightings to remember including one day with 5 separate sightings and a 19 strong pride with 6 clubs. The guides treated the animals with respect and as a result the animals were very relaxed around vehicles.
The camp was beautiful and well set out with great staff. Mealtimes were relaxed and flexible to accommodate longer morning drives and evening meal taken under the stars. Only minor criticism was that food was less varied than at similar camps and could have benefited from more salads / fresh fruit etc.
Overall a lovely camp and one that I have no hesitation in recommending highly.
Kwihala a very special, small camp
Kwihala was outstanding! With only 6 tents, it was very small and quiet--had the best sleep of our lives the three nights in this camp. Very comfortable tents, and felt like five-star luxury to have electricity after going without it (happily) at the previous camp.
The food was mostly good, and amazing what they do in such a remote camp kitchen, but occasionally the beef was fairly tough.
Highlight here was our guide, Pietro, and guide-in-training, Saidi. Pietro is passionate, even obsessed, with spotting game, and he did a brilliant job for us. We watched a very large pride of lions interacting for about an hour one morning, sighted three leopards over three days, saw a cheetah, huge herds of buffalo, elephants, giraffes, etc. etc. Ruaha was quite chilly in the mornings and evenings, so be sure to pack accordingly with long sleeves and pants, a warm fleece, hat, etc.
Kwihala Camp review
Saw a terrific amount of wildlife. Brilliant guide -- we had a real education not only about animals but also birds,insects and plants.
Camp was very well run and the people very friendly and pleasant.
Kwihala Camp review
One of the best camp experiences - very personal, great wildlife experience.
Read more about the whole safariA great bush experiance
Another class act as a camp. From arrival to departure the staff were top class. With decent rains the bush was very dense and animals scattered up to the escarpment which made game viewing very difficult but the ability of Marius Swart our guide for the 3 days made for a fantastic bush experiance . If it was living or growing Marius knew about it and passed on the information in the most understandable way.
Kwihala follows the on road rule only which is mandatory in Ruaha , so don't expect to go off road. The camp will be moving soon to a new permanent site just around the corner with a refurbishment of the facilities , the way the staff were talking , it will be spectacular.
Colin the camp manager could not do enough to help , Geoffrey the chef , fantastic and the flexibility of drives very welcome

I have found that I am not a huge fan of crystal in my pale ales. The only thing I'm committed to is the yeast, wlp 0051 as I have made a 1 liter starter. Again feel free to tear into it and give me your feedback. How is the hopping schedule? I would like to keep the ibu's within the style guidelines. I have a tendency to over hop...If thats possible!!! Thanks!!! Cheers!!! I have 4 oz's of citra, cascade, centennial, and warrior. One oz. of simcoe and one oz. of amarillo.
Looks good but I would not 'Steep' that last 2oz of cascade. Instead keep those for dry hopping in secondary. I am not a huge fan of crystal either.
I support the Sternewirth Privilege... Especially for Home Brewers!!
Vienna and Munich contain lots of Melanoidin. 5 lbs total is A LOT for a pale ale. It will be more like a Marzen. Probably will be good that way but maltier than a pale. I always use .5 to 1 pound of Munich or Vienna in my Pales but that's it. Usually Pales have a bit of crystal as well (around a pound for a 5 gallon batch. You could also add a bit of bisquit or victory to add complexity.
My go to is 2 lbs vienna, half lb of c60...vienna lends a nice note, but not sure how far both vienna and munich would take it
Yeah I would dry hop an ounce or 2 of something floral. you could stay the cascade route or maybe amarillo?
I'm no expert on recipe formulation, but if this is a recipe you want to tweak and remake I would recommend trying US-05 or notty. IME PA's don't require much flavor from the yeast, so you could save some money just by going with those. Or just wash and reuse your current yeast if you prefer that I guess. If it were me brewing it I would push the late hop additions to 15 and 5, but thats just me. And I would definitely dry hop it. I love having a strong hop nose on my pale ales and IPAs, because that is something I feel that all commercial examples lack. Just my $.02 though
Awesome, thanks for the great feedback. I definitely wanted a "maltier" pale ale. @wakadak I have already purchased the 0051 and made a starter so I am def going that route this time around. You think moving my 20 and 10 min additions would be better served at 15 and 5? I totally will be dryhopping this one. Should I stick to the cascade or throw something else in there? I also have tons of cascades pellet and whole leaf, as well as the others I listed in my post above. Again thanks for the suggestions guys and gals!!! I will update with my results and final recipe.... Cheers
Just cascade for dryhopping is fine. But so is mixing it up! You could do just about anything- cascade/chinook, amarillo/simcoe, cascade/simcoe, centennial/cascade, well you get the idea!
