Something All Our Ownby Grant Hill
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Since 1990, Grant Hill has thrilled sports fans with his artistry on the basketball court, first as an All-American player at Duke University and then as a six-time NBA All-Star for the Detroit Pistons and the Orlando Magic. During these years, Hill has amassed a collection of art by African Americans that he now shares with the public through this book, which accompanies a traveling exhibition.
and#9;The forty-six pieces documented here include thirteen works that span the career of the great Romare Bearden, from his 1941 gouache painting Serenade to the important collages of the 1980s. Hillandrsquo;s fascination with artistsandrsquo; depiction of women is represented in Elizabeth Catlettandrsquo;s lithographs, many of them from the 1992 series andldquo;For My People,andrdquo; and her sculptures in stone, bronze, and onyx. In addition to these two giants of twentieth-century art, the Hill Collection features pieces by Phoebe Beasley, Arthello Beck Jr., John Biggers, Malcolm Brown, John Coleman, Edward Jackson, and Hughie Lee Smith.
and#9;Hill began collecting art in the early 1990s after learning from his parents to appreciate artworks not only as objects of beauty but as expressions of heritage and culture. According to the internationally known curator Alvia J. Wardlaw, he is part of an emerging group of young African American collectors who have andldquo;raised the bar for others.andrdquo; Hill writes, andldquo;Getting to know yourself means understanding your background and appreciating those who have come before you. My father has a saying he uses in speeches: andlsquo;To be ignorant of your past is to remain a boy. andlsquo;The interest in my heritage as an African American is reflected in this collection.andrdquo;
and#9;Something All Our Own features Wardlawandrsquo;s essay on the history of African American collecting. It also features articles about Bearden and Catlett by the scholars Elizabeth Alexander and Beverly Guy-Sheftall and reflections about Hill by the historian John Hope Franklin, Dukeandrsquo;s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski, and the sportswriter William C. Rhoden. Hill and his father, the NFL great Calvin Hill, contribute a dialogue that explores their motivations for collecting art.
and#9;At the heart of the book are the exquisite color photographs of the forty-six artworks included in the exhibition, with commentary by Wardlaw and by Hill himself.
As a star athlete, Grant Hill is well aware that African Americans who excel in sports and entertainment are more broadly recognized than their counterparts in artistic fields. He strives to inspire young people to explore their heritage and broaden their concept of excellence by learning more about African American art. By sharing his artworks with collectors and fans, Hill reminds us that while the jump shot is ephemeral, art is enduring.
The NBA (and former Duke) star presents his art collection, with essays (by Hill and others) on his own art collecting and art collecting in African Americans' lives. Catalog to a touring show.
The six-time NBA All-Star for the Detroit Pistons and the Orlando Magic shares his collection of art by African Americans in this book, which accompanies an exhibition traveling the country through 2005. Includes an essay on the history of African-American art by curator Alvia J. Wardlaw, and exquisite full-color photographs of Hill's 46-piece collection.
About the Author
"Already, Grant Hill is demonstrating that his talents extend far beyond playing basketball. In Something All Our Own Grant and a few very special experts celebrate and examine the creative expression of African American art and artists. From his father-son trips to museums and galleries with Calvin Hill during NCAA Final Fours, to his relationship as a patron of the works of Romare Bearden and Elizabeth Catlett, among others, Hill sets out on the worthy mission of bringing recognition to prolific men and women and their rich legacy of expression. It's a story undertold. And kudos to Grant for not only recognizing that athleticism is fleeting while art and the expression of it are enduring, but for amassing such a fabulous collection and taking the time to share it."—Michael Wilbon,The Washington Post/ESPN
"Calvin and Grant Hill share their enlightened personal views about the passion they have for assembling art collections, which enhances our knowledge of African American art. Something All Our Own is an important guide for others to follow."—David Driskell, Artist and Art Historian
"Exhibiting art from the Grant Hill Collection—including a selection of superb collage and gouache prints by Romare Bearden and the classical sculpture by Elizabeth Catlett—makes it possible to feel the strength and importance of these African American artists. And too, it suggests the expansion of Grant Hill's collection through his creative research, study, and his eye for the works and artists most representative of African-American Art."—Raymond Nasher, Collector
"For so young a collector as Grant Hill to have assembled splendid groups of paintings and collages by Romare Bearden, sculpture and works on paper by Elizabeth Catlett, and art in a variety of media by other noted African-Americans suggests he has set as high a bar for his endeavors in the realm of art as he has for his work on the basketball court. Athletes, not artists, more often are this country's heroes, as Grant Hill has so knowingly acknowledged in this book. By making the fruits of his own support of artistic accomplishment known to a wide public by means of this catalogue and the circulating exhibition it documents, he will undoubtedly encourage others to become similarly supportive. In that way he is making an important contribution toward bringing greater attention to the heroic work of Bearden, Catlett, and others."—Ruth Fine, Curator of the Art of Romare Bearden Exhibition, National Gallery of Art
"Grant's collection evokes many impressions: strength, history, struggle, conflict, calm, triumph, family. His depth of appreciation and understanding of who he is and where he has come from have always been important facets of his life and career. In his usual thoughtful manner, Grant presents this catalogue for review and reflection: to not only expose the reader to the images and backgrounds of the art and artists who bring meaning to his life but to prod us to think about art as a shared experience that brings definition to our lives. I have known him too long to be surprised by the intelligent way in which he has done this."—Tone Grant, Managing Director, Refco Securities
"I had concurrent emotions as I read Grant's book. As an African American who was also a history major, I was mortified that so much of the information presented was new to me. And I was grateful that someone had taken the time to amass such an impressive body of visual and written work in an area where the public desperately needs educating. This is a wonderful collection which hopefully will bring in non-traditional supporters of African American art and artists. Grant should be proud. I am aware he has a day job, but what he's doing here is just as important—no, more important—for our people, our children and our future."—David Aldridge, ESPN

Lorne Adrain considering possible mayoral run in Providence
Add Lorne Adrain, businessman, community activist and the former chair of the RI Board of Governors for Higher Education, to the list of those mulling a run for mayor of Providence if Angel Taveras seeks a different office in 2014.
During a brief interview Saturday afternoon, Adrain confirmed he's exploring a possible campaign, in part since he believes Providence will need new energy and leadership if Taveras moves on. "I'm trying to take a hard look" at the issues that need attention, he says, while also examining how his family commitments might jibe with a political run. Adrain says he doesn't have a timetable for making decision.
Adrain has been an outspoken critic of a move by the House of Representatives during last year's late night budget vote to consolidate separate boards overseeing K-12 and higher education, a move that effectively eliminated his post with the Board of Governors. He is married to the novelist Ann Hood.
With Taveras and state Treasurer Gina Raimondo expected to compete in a Democratic gubernatorial primary next year, the field of prospective Providence mayoral candidates also includes:
-- City Council President Michael Solomon;
-- Three-time gubernatorial candidate Myrth York;
-- House Speaker Gordon Fox;
-- WPRO-AM talk-show host and former mayor Vincent "Buddy" Cianci;
-- Housing Court Judge and RWU Law School professor Jorge Elorza;
-- Central Falls educator Victor Capellan;
-- Ward 15 City Councilor Sabina Matos;
-- Education activist Maryellen Butke;
-- State Representative and former longtime City Councilor John Lombardi;
-- Meeting Street CEO and former state rep candidate John Kelly

Overseer Ends Republican Guard; Defense Ministry Dissolved; Arms-Control Edict in Works
Newspaper article The Washington Times (Washington, DC) , May 24, 2003
Article excerpt
Byline: Betsy Pisik, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
BAGHDAD - Iraq's new U.S. overseer took a major step yesterday toward disarming Iraq, formally dissolving Saddam Hussein's Defense Ministry and disbanding the Republican Guard and the once-mighty Iraqi army.
Coalition authorities are also readying a directive that will attempt to control the flood of weapons that swamped Baghdad and other urban areas in the months before the war. That order will ban the possession of heavy firearms and munitions, except by coalition forces and the Kurdish "peshmerga" militia fighters, U.S. allies in the drive to oust Saddam.
"These actions are part of a robust campaign to show the Iraqi people that the Saddam regime is gone and will never return," the administration of U.S. civilian authority L. Paul Bremer said in a statement in Baghdad.
Also disbanded yesterday in the continuing effort to purge the Ba'athist regime were the Ministry of Information and the Revolutionary Command Council, Saddam's hand-picked Cabinet of advisers.
All told, some 400,000 employees of the old regime are likely to lose their posts, according to unofficial estimates.
"Most of these will not be replaced, because they have no place in a free society," said an announcement issued by Mr. Bremer's Coalition Provisional Authority. "This order also disbands the regular armed forces of the old regime, because they were deeply penetrated and heavily dominated by the Ba'ath Party and its loyalists."
U.S. troops Thursday also seized what appeared to be $500 million worth of gold bars from a truck near Qaim on the Syrian border, the U.S. Central Command said in a statement yesterday. The 2,000 40-pound bars could be gold, it said. Two persons in the Mercedes-Benz truck said they had been paid $350 to drive the shipment.
When the gun-control measure is approved by Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, Iraqis will likely have a two-week amnesty period to turn in AK-47s, rocket grenades and other prohibited weapons. …

Play this all the time"
by Geraldine
We keep this in our motorhome and play it all the time. Just us two at the moment, but when the granddaughters are old enough it will be great for improving spelling. No bad thing in this text speak age! Tiles are heavy enough to play outdoors without them flying everywhere. Getting one for the step-son this year as he hates bananas the fruit. I hate scrabble but don't mind this and it takes up less room. My only complaint is hubby still beats me nearly every game!

Awesome game"
by Clare
This is an excellent game. It is quick, fast-paced and fun. My mother in law who was a scrabble fanatic has been converted. Other reviewers have commented on weight - it's not that heavy (weighs just under 400g) and is well worth it. There are cheaper version of this game but the quality is nowhere near as good. It has become a regular part of our holiday evenings.

Not what I thought"
by Judy
Bought for use on overseas holidays & a December boat journey. However although a novel idea it's far too heavy (379g) to take overseas (which on a recent holiday baggage allowance was hand luggage 5kg, cases 15kg). It's weight should be mentioned in its description. I won't be keeping it & will buy a lightweight travel game. Give 2* for novel idea for English holidays but no use to me.

This is an excellent game, gets your mind active and focused. The more people that play, the game becomes faster and the challenge harder! I purchased Bananagrams for friends that I also travelled around Scotland with over the festive season. Banagrams never left my friends' handbag, when we were out in pubs before and after meals - out came bananagrams! So much fun to play! Lakeland, please get more stock in, as so many of my friends now want their own, including myself.

Seven month after announcing a $300 million co-financing deal, Warner Bros. has signed a first-look deal with Brett Ratner and James Packer's RatPac Entertainment.
The pact gives Warner Bros. 32 first-look deals, the most of any studio. Those include deals with Clint Eastwood, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr. and Zack Snyder.
The studio plans to house RatPac's offices in the same building once occupied by Frank Sinatra -- head of the iconic Rat Pack consisting of Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford.
RatPac has already set up Harlan Coben's mystery novel "Missing You" at the studio, acquiring the movie rights a day before Dutton published it last month.
RatPac Entertainment is part of the RatPac-Dune Entertainment film finance vehicle formed with Steven Mnuchin, which announced a multi-year agreement in September to be used by Warner Bros. and RatPac-Dune to co-finance as many as 75 upcoming titles.
The studio's hit "Gravity" starring Sandra Bullock, was the first title to receive the RatPac-Dune funds.
News of the first-look deal was first reported by Variety sister site Deadline Hollywood.

What do you call yourself?Submitted by luvdispencer on Mon, 07/22/2013 - 11:39
Libertarian, Anarchist, Minarchist, Anarcho-capitalist, Sovereign Citizen, Constitutionalist, etc.??
It seems since we are all about individualism, that labels don't stick or we are constantly coming up with new ones so we don't get lumped in with someone we don't like. I would prefer to be called a libertarian because it's so simple. It all hinges on the non-aggresion principle, and its easy to look at everything through that lens. But the word libertarian has been so bastardized by the media and the Tea Party its hard to get a conversation going and declare your political ideals. So what do you say?
Edit 7/27: Wow thanks for all the comments. I couldn't have imagined a better response.
- Login to post comments
hold on
So you think we should design a non-aggressive monopoly in dispute resolution, that prohibits any competition to it. And the reason is because you feel that a free market in dispute resolution might become a state. But what you want to design is a state, and it's also aggressive, because it needs to prohibit competition.
So you want a state in order to reduce the chances that a free market will create a state.
No, that's not what I'm saying
A monopoly DRO will emerge even if none of the DROs behave aggressively. A DRO does not need to use aggression to get or keep a monopoly. The reason:
DROs will often find themselves on opposite sides of a dispute: i.e. one will rule one way, the other will rule another way. Two contradictory rulings cannot be enforced, so which DRO enforces its ruling? In the absence of an established appeals process or court of final appeals: the one that can. The one that is strong enough to enforce its ruling. What happens to the other DRO, the one which is not strong enough to enforce its ruling? It can't compete. The DRO capable of enforcing its rulings necessarily prevents its competitors from enforcing theirs. It becomes a monopoly "in a fit of absent mindedness," as it were. It doesn't need to actively "prohibit competition." It just needs to be able to enforce its own rulings, no matter which other DROs issue contrary rulings - and provided its rulings are just, it is not aggressing by enforcing them.
I'm saying we'll get a non-aggressive monopoly no matter what. If we create a free market in dispute resolution and let it unfold, who knows how the non-aggressive monopoly that emerges will be structured. Whereas, if we design a non-aggressive monopoly and start with that, we can control its structure. Structure matters. How the monopoly is structured as an organization will largely determined whether and/or how fast it evolves into a state (which is what we want to avoid).
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Predictions, predictions
… so which DRO enforces its ruling?...the one that is strong enough…
In order for the strong DRO to win, it must be stronger than all the other DROs combined. Let's assume that it is stronger than all of its competitors – why is this DRO so strong? It's strong because of its customers. Its customers support it and it has many customers which indicates that the mentality of the DRO rulings reflect the mentality of its customers. But isn't using force against all other competitive DROs expensive? In order to win, this strong DRO has to use a lot of violence. This is expensive for the customers and many customers will unsubscribe and find cheaper DROs who are more efficient and not crazed with violence and power. So in the end the free market will eliminate any imbalance and any monopoly that might arise and prevent a state from forming.
Whereas, if we design a non-aggressive monopoly and start with that, we can control its structure.
You can start with any structure you want but the customers will change the structure very quickly because the consumer is king.
Three Points
1. I suggest reading the blog post that I linked to earlier. It addresses many of the points you're raising. It would save us time and effort.
2. I'm not saying it has to be one DRO stronger than the rest. It might be three DROs stronger than the other two, or five stronger than the other seven, makes no difference at all. The point is, the strongest DRO, or partnership of DROs, wins the dispute - who wins the dispute is not decided by prices or other economic factors, it's about whose armed goons can enforce their employer's ruling despite the resistance of the other company's armed goons. And, ultimately, the strongest DRO will get a monopoly (or the strongest partnership of DROs will get a cartel).
3. As to violence being expensive, that's true. But saying a DRO won't use violence because its expensive is wrong, it's like saying Blackwater won't use violence because it's expensive - they're in a violent business. The dispute resolution business is inherently violent. Providing the service requires the use of violence. How does one enforce a ruling against someone who doesn't want to accept it without using violence? ...A violent DRO is not a power-hungry or evil DRO, it's just a DRO. All DROs must be violent to some extent.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
strong vs. fair
I read your article. You're making the assumption that consumers want a DRO that: (1) will rule in their favor, and (2) is strong enough to enforce its judgment.
This is not what consumers want. They want a fair ruling because they don't know which side of the ruling they will be on someday.
The most fair and most efficient DRO will get the consumers.
The strongest DRO will go out of business because they will cease to be funded when their customers leave.
Fair according to whom?
The reason there's a dispute in the first place is that the disputants disagree as to what's fair. So I don't know what you mean by fair.
Anyway, the important point is that no consumer will hire a judge unless he thinks there's a decent chance of the ruling being enforced - no matter how favorable or "fair" he expects that ruling to be, it's of no use whatsoever unless it's enforceable.
Let me ask you this: why are there no private judges today in the US? By judges I mean people who render decisions *and* enforce them. It's not illegal for me to build a courthouse, buy a robe, call myself Judge NowOrNever, and start advertizing for customers. No G-men will break down my door if I try to do this. So why doesn't anyone do this? Because everyone knows I can't enforce my ruling, since whoever is on the losing end of my ruling can appeal to a government court, and that I cannot possibly compete with the strength behind the government court. I the private judge have no customers because I cannot enforce my rulings, and everyone knows this.
P.S. Thanks for reading my essay. It's still a work in progress so I really appreciate any feedback. :-)
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
The judges will be hired
The judges will be hired prior to the dispute. People will have contracts with DROs just like they have car insurance - before anything happens. They will contract with DROs who have a reputation of being fair (whatever they believe fair means to them).
The reason they will not contract with a DRO that bullies everyone around and doesn't follow the NAP, is because they don't know which side the DRO will take if they need them in the future. Two feuding parties might belong to the same DRO.
P.S. In the second sentence of your essay - "there is no state, and there is a large number of privately owned firms" - I think it should read "there are a large number".
Addressing each of your paragraphs in order...
1. People might subscribe to a judge, or they might pay a judge only when they use them - there's no way to know in advance. But you're right that if they did subscribe, they would be more concerned about "fairness" (if by that you mean not being noticeably biased toward either defendants or plaintiffs), since customers wouldn't know in advance whether they'll be seeing the judge as a plaintiff or defendant.
But this is not a rebuttal to my point (that customers will hire judges capable of enforcing their decisions), because (1) being fair and being capable of enforcing your decisions are not mutually exclusive, and (2) no matter how fair you are, you will still have no customers unless you can enforce those fair rulings.
2. Being strong enough to enforce your own ruling and doing so does not entail being a bully or violating the NAP.
3. Even though it sounds funny, I'm pretty sure "is" is grammatically correct, since "number" is singular.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Let's say DRO-1 made a ruling in favor of its client, the plaintiff, and the defendant was a client of DRO-2. If DRO-2 is much stronger than 1, then DRO-1 is prevented from enforcing its ruling.
But what if the original ruling of DRO-1 were fair (according to what the majority of customers think "fair" is -- hopefully as close to the NAP as possible).
Now what happens to the reputation of DRO-2? The customers don't care about strength as much as they care about fairness. They won't support DRO-2 because they know that they can be screwed by their own DRO. Don't forget, a customer of DRO-2 can be sued by another customer of DRO-2.
People don't only want results (strength), they want fairness as well as strength. And much of the strength or weakness of a DRO comes from its customers support, or lack of support, because the consumer is king.
If a DRO...
...routinely makes egregious rulings, then I'm sure its reputation and business will suffer, sure. But not every disagreement between DROs is going to involve one DRO making an egregious ruling. There can and frequently will be disagreements between good and fair libertarian DROs. Even if all DROs adhere strictly to the same libertarian legal principles, there will be disagreements about the facts of the case, and disagreements about how to apply the law (e.g. as in the case of homesteading, whose "first use" principle is notoriously open to interpretation).
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
more scenarios
What if two DROs are equally strong, then both will exist and no monopoly will form.
Or what if one DRO is very strong and the other 20 are weak, but the 20 combined are stronger than the strong DRO? That DRO will never get a monopoly if the 20 work together.
First, for a monopoly to form
First, for a monopoly to form all that's needed is for there to be disagreements between DROs of unequal strength *sometimes.* Not every dispute has to be that way.
Secondly, if the 20 are working together consistently, and thereby dominate the other(s), then they're a cartel. QED.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Ive made this point hundreds
Ive made this point hundreds of times, so glad to see an actual anarchist on this site cop to it. If you read the material and assume that coercion in any form is unacceptable then you must adhere to this view. The problem is that anarchists here are so desperate to not have their system look almost indistinguishable from the system they are replacing. Rothbard himself more or less admits this.
Ventura 2012
What frustrates me...
...about my fellow ancaps is their tendency to think about private law as just another sector in the free market - but it isn't, because the free market already presupposes law enforcement, and law enforcement is inherently violent, not voluntary (so how can it be part of a *free* market?).
The conventional ancapism is based on a crude analogy: free market works in X, Y, and Z...so why not law? In my experience, that's really about the extent of the depth of their thinking, I hate to say it. Even Rothbard and his epigones don't get into any deeper analysis.
The basic idea of a stateless society is sound, but ancapism as presently constituted, i.e. based on the impossible idea of polycentric law, is not.
P.S. I might add, if this problem would be recognized by ancaps, there is a hugely fruitful area to be explored. We could finally develop the praxeology of involuntary interaction that Mises was talking about.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Of course, you must have VERY
Of course, you must have VERY stable legal systems enforced by credible entities before you can have capitalism. One need only look at the breakdown of the Roman Empire into anarchism to see what resulted:feudalism. There is zero historical evidence to suggest that this would not be the case.
I think anarchists have addressed the polycentric law issue demonstrably enough: it won't exist. You will have Hoppe style communities that enforce their own laws on members of their jurisdiction. Think of Greek City-States(uh oh, there's that "state" word again) or Feudal estates.
Ventura 2012
Would you define "state"?
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Whatever it is the anarchists
Whatever it is the anarchists hate so much. I guess it's mainly replacing broad legislation interpreted by courts or bureaucrats for common law and contract law deciding everything.
Ventura 2012
There are three positions in this debate
Yours, mine, and the Rothbardian ancaps' - let me try to compare them.
The ancaps usually define the state as a territorial monopoly in the provision of law and security (or something to that effect). Note that the word aggression is not in that definition; it's taken for granted that a monopoly can only exist if it uses aggression against the competition. As a result of this assumption, ancaps are hostile to monopoly itself (where they should only be hostile to monopoly if it's aggressive), hence their support for polycentric law.
You and I agree that monopoly will emerge from polycentric law, but we draw very different conclusions from this.
You implicitly agree with the ancap view that monopoly = state, and since polycentric law will yield monopoly, you then dismiss ancapism as a failure on its own term (and you would be right to do so if monopoly really did = state).
Whereas I say: polycentric law will lead to monopoly, but monopoly =/= state. Only an aggressive monopoly is a state, and a monopoly DRO does not have to be aggressive. The ancaps are wrong in saying that a monopoly can only exist by employing aggression against it's competitors. Rather, a monopoly can only exist by using *violence* against it's competitors. As limelemon pointed out, aggression =/= violence. And the point I keep reiterating is that a DRO *must* use violence to enforce its rulings (including violence against competitors if they resist the enforcement of its rulings), so a monopoly is inevitable, but this violence is not aggression if the rulings being enforced are just.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
The real 3 positions:
1. Actual anarchist thinkers like you that understand that polycentric law will not exist any more than it does today(Rothbard included).
2. Minarchist like me that understand the same and therefore don't really see the need to go towards anarchy.
3. Anarchists on this site like limelemon that are the most misinformed, unread anarchist I've ever seen that literally think everyone in a town gets to hire different courts and police lol.
I don't agree that a monopoly equals a state, I just think that it is substantially similar to a state.
Here is Rothbard on "covenant communities":
"With every locale and neighborhood owned by private firms, corporations, or contractual communities, true diversity would reign, in accordance with the preferences of each community. Some neighborhoods would be ethnically or economically diverse, while others would be ethnically or economically homogeneous. Some localities would permit pornography or prostitution or drugs or abortion, others would prohibit any or all of them. The prohibitions would not be state imposed, but would simply be requirements for residence or use of some person's or community's land area."
and then
"n a country, or a world, of totally private property, including streets, and private contractual neighborhoods consisting of property-owners, these owners can make any sort of neighborhood-contracts they wish. In practice, then, the country would be a truly "gorgeous mosaic," … ranging from rowdy Greenwich Village-type contractual neighborhoods, to socially conservative homogeneous WASP neighborhoods. Remember that all deeds and covenants would once again be totally legal and enforceable, with no meddling government restrictions upon them. So that considering the drug question, if a proprietary neighborhood contracted that no one would use drugs, and Jones violated the contract and used them, he fellow community-contractors could simply enforce the contract and kick him out. Or, since no advance contract can allow for all conceivable circumstances, suppose that Smith became so personally obnoxious that his fellow neighborhood-owners wanted him ejected. They would then have to buy him out—-probably on terms set contractually in advance in accordance with some "obnoxious" clause."
This is pretty much my view of the best-case-scenario Ancap society. Basically a corporate locality where majority rules(majority of dollars or votes) and if you don't like it you can't live there.
Ventura 2012
Couple Points
1. Re the homeowners association (HOA) idea...it's still polycentric law. What happens when a member of one HOA has a dispute with a member of another HOA? Who decides the outcome of the dispute? Or, for that matter, when a member of an HOA has a dispute with another member of the same HOA, loses the dispute, doesn't like the result, and appeals to an outside organization? You'll end up with (sometimes violent) conflict between HOAs over who decides the outcome of the dispute, just as you would between DROs. And so you'll end up with one or another HOA having a monopoly in dispute resolution.
2. Ancaps claim that a minarchist government can only exist if it uses aggression to keep out competitors. Most minarchists accept this critique and say "well, yea, but ancapism is impossible, so minimizing aggression with minarchism is the best we can do." Both are wrong, and for the same reason: they think aggression is necessary to maintain a monopol in dispute resolution services - it isn't.
A DRO can get and jeep a monopoly simply by being strong enough to enforce its rulings regardless of what anyone else has to say, and if those rulings are just, then it is not aggressing by doing this. It excludes competitors naturally in the course of business, with violence, yes, but not with aggression.
What a non-aggressive DRO amounts to is a minarchist government sans the aggression which ancaps and minarchists alike typically think it requires. That is my ideal. I much prefer a well-designed minarchist government like this to...who knows what might emerge from conflicts between firms/DROs/HOAs in a polycentric law situation.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
1. Rothbard is saying that as
1. Rothbard is saying that as a condition to living in a certain community you must submit to the laws and court system of that community. So there will be one code and one court system. There will not be an outside appeal unless one is granted to you.
2. I agree with you except I don't think anarchism is desirable. I don't think its impossible, that would be saying Feudal Europe, Bushmen of Calihari or Ancient Ireland and Israel were "impossible". They actually existed.
We know that the DRO firms would be subject to the whims of the American consumer, that should scare the shit out of us right there lol.
Ventura 2012
1. That's assuming the
1. That's assuming the communities respect one another's jurisdictions, which, unless they're all members of some larger organization, I see no reason for them to do.
2. What I'm advocating is nothing like those examples. I'm talking about a government: officials, elections, a constitution, nightwatchmen functions, etc. My vision is probably much like yours in substance. It's anarchistic only in the sense that this government is not a state. A state is an aggressive monopoly DRO. This government is a non-aggressive monopoly DRO (and I've already explained how I think a monopoly DRO can maintain it's monopoly without using aggression).
Originally I called myself an ancap who rejects the possibility of polycentric law. I could just as rightly call myself a minarchist who believes in the possibility of non-aggressive government.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
1. That's true, but of course
1. That's true, but of course that is true of any disagreement between two jurisdictions today, particularly international disagreements. So it is not a problem unique to anarchy. Like the Feudal estate, the anarchic community will likely be large enough to sustain human life(by having a coercive jurisdiction large enough to enforce some level of contract law). By coercive I mean that you cannot enter or buy property in the jurisdiction without submitting to the DRO agency that runs the jurisdiction. My guess is at a minimum they would be the size of a city in practice(best case scenario).
2.Yes I'm very well aware, my point is that --->I<--- am not a minarchist that believes anarchy is impossible. I just don't find it desirable, certainly not on the margin.
3. Check out Rothbard: http://www.lewrockwell.com/1970/01/murray-n-rothbard/liberta...
"In practice, this means taking the
largely libertarian common law, and correcting it by the use of
man's reason, before enshrining it as a permanently fixed libertarian
code or constitution."
Ventura 2012
1. As you say, disagreements
1. As you say, disagreements between sovereigns are much more problematic (likely to lead to conflict and instability) than disagreements between entities within the same sovereign (the reason being that legitimacy matters, and entities within the same sovereign generally recognize the legitimacy of the structure of which they're both part). And that was my point. For the HOA arrangement to work, they need to be in some kind of confederation or association, with a rule-based mechanism for settling disputes between them. There's no guarantee they'll honor these rules, but they're more likely to avoid conflict with them than without them. And if the HOAs are part of a lager organization, then it becomes something like what I'm advocating: a highly decentralized (non-aggressive) government.
2. Gotcha
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Are you saying that Lew
Are you saying that Lew Rockwell, Tom Woods, Walter Block, et al. are all misguided, and if they knew better they would stop advocating ancap and get people to support minarchism through campaigning and voting?
Keep in mind....
Aside from Molinari, ancapism was created by Rothbard and is only about 50 years old; all ancap thought since then has been fully in Rothbard's shadow, and has not progressed one iota from where Rothbard left it. It's a young idea. It would be a shame if it became dogma before it became mature. So, yes, IMO they're wrong - and you should at least consider the possibility that they're wrong.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
So what's the advantage of
So what's the advantage of knowing that a free market in law will lead to a non-aggressive monopoly? How does that help?
Option A. Start with a free
Option A. Start with a free market in law, end up with a monopoly.
Option B. Start with a monopoly.
Either way we get a monopoly.
So what's the difference?
**Not all monopolies are equal**
We want a non-aggressive monopoly structured in such a way that it is likely to remain non-aggressive over time; we don't want it evolving into a state do we? So either we can deliberately design such an organization (as I want), or we can throw the dice with a free market in law and hope such an organization emerges.
The structural factors I'm talking about are things like separation of powers, decentralization, written constitutions, etc.
"Alas! I believe in the virtue of birds. And it only takes a feather for me to die laughing."
Tom Woods has more or less
Tom Woods has more or less done this already(he told me via email). But yes, I think they are misguided, you can go ahead and add every anarchist thinker ever born to the list.
Ventura 2012
You once told me that
You once told me that constitutional government is easier to sell than anarchism. I agree. But do you think we can ever get to the point where enough people will understand economics so that they will support limited government so that there can be change?

Anyone Good at Photoshop?
Hey Guys, we are considering this house and would:
1) Paint the brick white and leave the Fireplace red brick.
2) Add black shutters to the windows
3) Leave the garage section to the left red brick
4) Add a dormer to the garage section
Can anyone at least color the brick accordingly?
I'll be honest. Don't aim to be harsh but telling you straight up just like I would if you were my client. . .
Don't have time to photoshop it for you right now. But even if I did, I wouldn't. Because 1 thru 4 are all not good ideas. So not good, I wouldn't even 'pretend' them in Photoshop.
That house is almost perfectly fine just the way it is. Someone went a lil crazy with windows but you can't do much about that without spending some $.
The front door is completely wrong for that house and I'd change that first thing.
The cream color is too light. A darker, beige/taupe/arbitrary neutral color closer to the value of the brick plus haint blue porch ceilings would make for a much more cohesive curb appeal.
You didn't ask for anyone to chime in with their 2 cents about the house. You just wanted someone to Photoshop it for you. I didn't follow directions but I couldn't help it.
Thanks for the feedback. The house has no texture as it stands. We are not bent on painting. There are other ways to add the depth that is lacking. Shutters could help as well.
We could also leave it brick and just do the transom to the garage in off white or white siding with a cupola on the garage.
Here is a sample of solid light colored main house with brick garage and fireplaces and black shutters. We would make the transom from house to garage siding.
Here is a link that might be useful: Georgian
I just recommended this to another poster: try Benjamin Moore's color viewer. You can upload your photo and virtually "paint" the house any way you like.
Here is a link that might be useful: Benjamin Moore Color Viewer
So here's our painted house. Not sure yet if we would prefer black doors or maybe do red.

Psychoanalysis News & Updates
Articles, News, Promotions and Updates from Routledge and the Taylor & Francis Group.
Articles, News, Promotions and Updates from Routledge and the Taylor & Francis Group.
Largely forgotten, Charles Baudouin's work warrants greater attention from both psychoanalysts and historians alike. He was a prolific author throughout his career; the Collected Works of Charles Baudouin is an opportunity to revisit some of his finest works.
NEW Relational Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy Integration traces the history of efforts to integrate psychoanalysis with other psychotherapeutic modalities, beginning with the early analysts, including Ferenczi and Rank, and continuing on to the present day. It explores the potential for integration made possible by contemporary developments in theory and technique that are fundamental to a relational psychoanalytic approach.
Just Published The contributors of Body Image and Identity in Contemporary Societies explore the complex social, political and aesthetic interconnections between body image and identity. It is an in-depth study that allows for new perspectives in the analysis of contemporary visual art and literature but also reflects on how these social constructs inform clinical treatment.
NEW Psychoanalysis in an Age of Accelerating Cultural Change: Spiritual Globalization addresses the current status of mental health work in the public and private sectors. The careful, thorough, approach to the individual person characteristic of psychoanalysis is mostly the province of an affluent few.
Just Published Did God create man or did man create God? In this book, Dianna Kenny examines religious belief through a variety of perspectives – psychoanalytic, cognitive, neuropsychological, sociological, historical and psychiatric – to provide a coherent account of why people might believe in God.
NEW Essential Psychodynamic Psychotherapy: An Acquired Art provides an essential, accessible grounding in current psychodynamic theory and practice for a wide range of readers. For trainees, it offers a very useful toolset to help them make the transition from purely theoretical training to the uncharted territory of clinical practice.
Just Published Frances Tustin Today explores some of the ways and means by which Tustin's work has enabled psychoanalytic clinicians to enter into the elemental domain of sensation: what Bion called the 'proto-mental' area of the psyche-soma. Through detailed clinical contributions of several of her exponents worldwide, this book demonstrates how her ideas -- rooted in decades of work with children on the autistic spectrum -- have influenced and are being expanded, extended and applied to the treatment of ordinary patients from early childhood through adulthood.
Imogen Burch is the editor for Psychology Revivals, Psychology Library Editions, and Routledge Library Editions in Mental Health. We caught up with Imogen in the Taylor & Francis office in Hove to find out more about the program.
NEW In Torments of the Soul, Antonino Ferro revisits and expands on a theme that has long been at the heart of his work: the study of dreams during sleep and in the waking state, and the psychoanalytic narrative. Following Bion, he focuses on the importance of what he sees as the task of contemporary psychoanalysis for generating, containing and transforming previously unmanageable emotions with a clinical psychoanalytic context.
New The Shadow of the "Second Mother" explores why has there been such little interest, in psychology, social history and biography, in the important contribution that 'second mothers', such as wet nurses and nannies, have had upon the emotional life of the children they have nursed. For the last three thousand years and throughout most civilisations they have nurtured the children of the privileged, and kept alive the abandoned and unwanted child, and yet there has been a profound silence surrounding the influence they may have had.

Arizona Cardinals
AZCardinals.com's Urban: Larry Fitzgerald's contract will lead to some decisions
Larry Fitzgerald has caught nearly everything thrown his way during a 10-year career as an Arizona Cardinal.
With over 11,000 career receiving yards and 87 touchdowns, Fitzgerald has grown into a star since being selected with the third overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft, and he has certainly been paid like one.
Fitzgerald signed an an eight-year deal worth $128 million in 2011, but when the eight-time Pro Bowler was slated to earn more than $12 million in salary in 2014, he and the team restructured the deal in February to change that to a $1 million salary with a $11.75 million signing bonus.
The move helped the Cardinals financially this season, but also just pushed back some big decisions between the team and the receiver for one more year.
"Well, Larry's salary cap number next year is $23.6 million," Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com told Bickley and Marotta of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM. "That's not his salary, but it does include a giant roster bonus. Regardless, if he stays on the team and they don't do anything with his contract, that's a $23.6 million hit. That's the kind of thing teams have to adjust to."
If the Cardinals want to avoid the $23 million hit on the cap next year, the team will either have to restructure his deal again or possibly part ways with their all-time receiving leader.
"I do think that Steve Keim has shown that as important as some of these players are, the big picture is the big picture," Urban said. "That's why, for instance, Adrian Wilson is not here anymore. I'm not saying by any way, shape or form that means Larry Fitzgerald won't be here next year, but I do expect there to be a very serious conversation very early in the next offseason between the team and Fitzgerald. I don't care how good he is, I don't know if you can have a $24 million cap hit for any one player, it just throws everything out of whack."

Capital Cullinarian vs ?
Yes the never ending question on which range to buy. I am thinking about the 36" Capital Cullinarian but I don't have any local distributor for it and I have never seen one in person. Eurostoves is about 350 miles away and I wouldn't be able to get there until summer. I have a price from a local catalog place for about $6,000. Now I know that the Kitchen Aide is a much different stove but I am also looking at that for about $5,000 and the KA is a dual fuel. Here is something I read about the CC on another site.
"I got the culinarian; couple of immediate issues that surfaced upon first use; grate pattern isn't optimal - you can't slide pans around (especially smaller ones) without a tipping risk as there are some 'holes' in the pattern; i have a self clean - the oven racks are the worst i have ever encountered in any stove - they're on 4 flimsy little wheels which makes the rack very wobbly and also difficult to pull out completely and relocate to another level (especially if hot) - whoever designed those never used it; last point - the oven vent behind the rear burners is raised and is too close to the burner such that you can't center a large pot on teh back burners."
I would like CC owners to comment on these issues and if anyone has used the Kitchen Aide along with a CC I would appreciate a comparison. Yes I know that the KA is sealed burner and the CC is open but I would still like to hear some feedback. My local store told me that the KA is the best in its class for sealed burners. They also carry Wolf.
The criticisms you cite are valid (though the one about "holes" is not really a big deal, and the back burners will take an 11"+ pot). BlueStar is very similar to the CC. BlueStar has really good roll-out racks. CC has a great rotisserie. BlueStar has a raised vent at the back which is, if anything, a bit more restrictive than the CC. The CC has a great wok support; the BS is still good for wokking; the KA is not in the same league for wokking.
If you can do a wall oven instead of a range, you should. Then you can consider induction (which has its own set of pro's and con's vs gas, but should definitely be given some thought).
I have a self clean Culinarian. On the one hand I think the grate criticism is correct with regards to very small pots can fall in. On the other hand I have not found it difficult to slide pots. And the flames do not burn off the enamel on the center part of grates. I guess that is a looks over cooks decission. But the Culinarian wok grate is the best I have seen or used.
I have used large pots on the rear burners against the oven vent. They fit but you might discolor the SS,turning dark purplish like many commercial stoves I have seen.
Oven racks. The CC racks are certainly not Wolf but worst in the history of ranges is way over the top. They are OK.
CC fans do get carried away in their praise and sometimes new owners have way over the top expectations but I would buy mine again in heart beat. I wish I could combine the best features of every range for a reasonable price. But that is not going to happen. Given real world choices, I think the CC is the best option out there.
I have a question for the CC owners. I thought I read a post about the self clean and manual clean ovens having different racks. I can' find that post now. Is there a difference? I don't necessarily need self clean. I don't use it today because I don't want to stress the electric range. To answer the question about induction, I have decided against it becasue it would be too much work to add a wall oven and I currently have a ceramic top which is OK but what I don't like is that I can't slide a pan back and forth on the ceramic like I could on my old gas range. Part of what is making the decision hard is that I am mostly a range top cook and my wife likes to bake. She prefers electric for baking because that is all she knows and I prefer gas for the rangtop because I have had both and definitley prefer gas. That is the reason we are considering the KA. Sort of a compromise because the KA is good for a sealed burner and it has an elecrtric oven. I talked to someone about the Capital DF and they said it is a very bad design and I should not consider it over the all gas. I think the major complaint was that the controls are below the bullnose on the front of the range which makes them impossible to see unless you bend down and look below the bullnose.
Self-clean range has full extension ez glide racks.
Manual clean range has standard racks.
Not all gas burners are the same neither are all gas ovens.
Or induction hobs or electric ovens.
If wifey is a fussy pastry chef used to baking on three full sheets in her Gaggenau or Wolf oven then she will find the CC oven lacking.
The CC oven is at least as good as the KA electric in terms of evenness just not as good as the very best electric. Especially when you turn on the convection. Some pastry bakes better in the dry heat of electric some breads bake better in the moist heat of gas. As a whole most bakers do prefer electric but most bakers have not used a really good gas oven. Plus gas ovens roast meats a bit better too.
Can't speak to Capital electric ovens or DF ranges as I have never used them.
@Tom2013 said "I can't slide a pan back and forth on the ceramic"
Why do you want to? I know why you have to with a radiant ceramic top, but with induction there is no need to move pans "off the heat"; you just cut the power to the burner and heating stops instantly. FWIW, we used to slide pans around all the time when we had a ceramic smoothtop; it wasn't a problem.
@deeageaux" said: "Self-clean range has full extension ez glide racks. "
The racks are NOT full extension; they only come out about half-way. And "EZ-glide" is a triumph of marketing-speak over reality: the CC rolling racks are pitiful - balky and crude compared to the competition.
The big benefit the self-clean has over the non-self-clean is a really nice rotisserie.
I move the skillet on the range to toss or flip the food. I lift and shake to toss the food but still I need to be very conscious of what I am doing so I don't scratch the ceramic or come down too hard on it.
I found the old thread on the racks. It sounds like the racks are fixed on the manual clean. I think the gas oven will probably work for us based on what deeageaux said. No pastry cooking going on here. More like cookies and simple cakes. I guess the only thing I would want the self clean for is the rotisserie and I have never used one so I am not sure if I would ever use it.
I contacted Capital and they are going to be updating their website in a couple months with info on the duel fuel model. The 2013 culinarians will now come with a simmer burner but I didn't see any info on the website about that.

Philips mp3 player battery replacement?

Posted February 3, 2006 at 1:32PM
Son's HDD070 mini jukebox apparently started doing odd things before Christmas (but he didn't tell us). Now it's as dead as a dodo and I suspect that the rechargeable battery has packed up. Philips want £100 to repair it since the 12 month warranty has just expired. IT ONLY COST £130 NEW!!!
Anyone know if this can be done DIY and if so, what battery is needed??

According to this site it says it has a Rechargeable Lithium Battery.
So take the battery out and see what the number is and post it back.

OK, bit the bullet and took it to bits. Easier than an Ipod since it involves tiny but visible screws. The battery appears to be the same as those for the 3rd generation Ipod. Ebay allowed me to find several for £8 incl postage, one of which I have ordered. (It's actually a bit higher capacity than the original) I'll let you know if it works.
Philips' £100 charge is even more outrageous when you consider a new HDD070 now costs just £110 from Argos

battery arrived in 48 hrs. Connector not a good fit so soldered on the old one instead. Very thin wires, but do-able.
It's now charging happily, which it wouldn't before, so I'm assuming it's fixed.
Feeling very smug having saved about £100 vs the cost of a replacement or a Philips repair

Yes,so you should.
That was a real rip-off price that Philips quoted you for repair!

I loved the luminous look this foundation gave my skin definitely leaves u with a healthy look . My skin is combination and on my oilier days it slips off very easily but it's give and take with foundation and I have learned to have a few different foundations for when my skin is on the drier and oilier side comes with having combination skin type . Wouldn't say it had the greatest colour selection but having medium skin with pink undertones found it quite easy to find a colour . Wouldn't say it's my hg but one I wouldn't mind repurchasing for my drug store collection .

I used this foundation many years ago but i remember hating it.
I have oily/combo skin and this slipped off my face within hours.
It was fun putting it on as it was a new kind of formula when it first came out.
Color selection is not that great either..it runs kinda pink and my skintone is very yellow.
Packaging is could be better..screwoff top is not very handy;)
Would not recommend!

This is on my short-list of HG foundations. I have fair, sensitive/normal skin.
Full, even coverage
Demi-matte finish
Smooth cream to liquid texture and easy to blend, I can throw it on or build it up
Lasts all day
Creamy Ivory is fair enough for me (DS foundations rarely are)
The packaging. I approve of separate sponge storage, but having to fully unscrew and remove the other side to get at the foundation isn't very efficient. It would be much better if it was a flip opening rather than unscrewing. It's also rather bulky because of the sponge storage: something more streamlined would be much more hand/make-up bag friendly.

Personally, I didn't like this foundation, most positive reviews have been from people with normal skin types however most negative reviews have been from oily skin types.
I have combination skin and I wasn't impressed, simply because it is a cream foundation, and is very creamy to touch, however when applied, dries to a VERY matte finish, which meant it sat on top of oily areas and accentuated dry areas. So really its only good for NORMAL skin types.
For a cream foundation, the coverage wasn't brilliant, packaging was bulky, there is only 11g or so for around £8.00 which is definitely not worth it. Of course there is no pump, which is not very hygienic and can make some people break out.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this to many people, as it is expensive, bulky, poor coverage and finish and will probably break you out.

this is a great foundation, I use it almost everyday and it gives full coverage (depending on the amount you use) and it stays on skin. I LOVE IT. try a tester at the shop before purchasing, you might not like it...everyone it different... :)

I've seen quite a few negative reviews.. but I LOVE IT!
Gives me a full coverage and covers everything! I don't need to use a concealer.. It gives me skin a dewy look. I do like to use a translucent powder - just to set it.
This product doesn't make my skin look "oily" throughout the day- (My skin is normal)
Not a complete fan of the packaging.. The jar is tiny compared to the "lid" they placed the sponge in.. So thumbs down for that.. And for the price (Close to $40 In Australia) I'd love to have more product than packaging.
Aside from that one negative, i really do highly recommend this foundation if you love high coverage!

I love this product! It's my absolutely favorite foundation and I've bought it 6 times till today. I love the effect it leaves on my skin,it's smooth,"light" on my face,easy to apply and it's not oily at all-that's why you should avoid it if you have dry skin. It makes my face look completely matte after 5-6 hours minimum. I wouldn't recommend this to girls with acne-prone skin or severe cases of discoloration and acne scars, since its coverage is medium. It works well for my skin though and it's satisfying enough when I have my monthly breakout. I'm a huge Max Factor lover and I've tried almost all their foundations (Xperience,Color Adapt,Second Skin,Facefinity) but I can assure you that this one leaves my skin looking the best of all the rest. Its price is not that satifying,it could be cheaper imo. I should also mention that the packaging is really nice and comfortable for your handbag or clutch and it also includes a spongy applicator. Overall,a great foundation I would recommend to anyone. It indeed does miracles!

This is quite simply- horrible. It's greasy, sits on the skin, transfers/rubs off very easily, highlights pores, lines and fine hairs on the face. My face looked like it hadn't been washed in a month within an hour of having this product on my face. Not impressed at all especially since I paid £12 for this!!!

I LOVE THIS, im really pale and its hard to find a foundation that will match my pale skin, annd cover everything i need it to. It comes with a sponge but i use a foundation brush.
I ran out of my MAC foundation and needed to find something that would do me until i got another, so i went to the store and picked this up simply because i liked the packaging! Whilst i know that's a bad way to pick a foundation; its the best drugstore foundation ive found!
Great coverage, around medium and leaves a dewy, but not oily effect on my skin which is great as i usually cant get a foundation to look dewy on me as of my dry skin. Anyways,
I highly recommend!

Edmonds polytopes and a hierarchy of combinatorial problems (2006)

year = {2006}
Let S be a set of linear inequalities that determine a bounded polyhedron P. The closure of S is the smallest set of inequalities that contains S and is closed under two operations: (i) taking linear combinations of inequalities, (ii) replacing an inequality Σaj xj ≤ a0, where a1,a2,...,an are integers, by the inequality Σaj xj ≤ a with a ≥[a0]. Obviously, if integers x1,x2,...,xn satisfy all the inequalities in S, then they satisfy also all inequalities in the closure of S. Conversely, let Σcj xj ≤ c0 hold for all choices of integers x1,x2,...,xn, that satisfy all the inequalities in S. Then we prove that Σcj xj ≤ c0 belongs to the closure of S. To each integer linear programming problem, we assign a nonnegative integer, called its rank. (The rank is the minimum number of iterations of the operation (ii) that are required in order to eliminate the integrality constraint.) We prove that there is no upper bound on the rank of problems arising from the search for largest independent sets in graphs.
