Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry Chapter 1 Summary
- Our narrator (Cassie) and her three brothers (Little Man, Stacey and Christopher-John) are walking to school on the first day of school for the year.
- What, did they run out of names by the time they got to Little Man?
- Stacey and Cassie are not happy to be returning to school. Stacey is especially unhappy that he's going to be in his mother's class this year.
- Time for some exposition: We learn that, long ago, Cassie's grandfather had purchased 400 acres of land from the white Granger family.
- This land is valuable and productive, and the family makes some extra money by farming cotton.
- But: one 200-acre plot has been mortgaged, and there are taxes on the other 200 acres. The family is having some trouble paying the debts, because cotton prices are low (thanks, Great Depression).
- To make extra money Cassie's father had "gone to work on the railroad" (1.15).
- Presumably, all the livelong day.
- Papa has emphasized that doing this work and making sacrifices (like not having new clothes) is important, so that the Logan family can keep their land.
- The Logan kids meet up with T.J. Avery and his little brother, Claude. They're really poor (you can tell by their lack of shoes and how skinny they are), and we find out that they sharecrop on Logan land.
- T.J. hints around to Stacey that he might work the whole Mom-as-teacher angle and find out in advance what will be on tests.
- After Stacey shuts down this plan (good job, Stacey!), T.J. reveals that there has been a "burning" the previous night (1.27).
- Ooh, this doesn't sound good at all.
- And it's not. Mr. Berry and his two nephews (a family that lives nearby) were burned almost to death by some white men.
- Cassie makes it clear she doesn't like T.J. very much. Oh, and neither does Little Man. Or Christopher-John, for that matter.
- It soon becomes clear why: T.J. recounts an incident where he almost got in trouble for going to a "dancing room" at a local store.
- To save himself from getting in trouble, T.J. told his mother that the only reason he was at the store was because Claude had snuck off to get some candy.
- Claude was beaten for this, which T.J. thinks is pretty funny.
- Suddenly, Stacey yells at everyone to get off the road (1.64). Wait—what's going on?
- The kids all climb up the bank alongside the road and head into the forest.
- A bus full of white children comes flying down the road, sending clouds of red dust everywhere.
- Little Man is angry that his clothes are now ruined from the red dust.
- We find out that the African-American children don't have a school bus. Instead, they're stuck walking several miles to and from school each day.
- Hm, sounds like that "separate but equal" thing isn't working out too well.
- Here comes Jeremy. He's a white boy who risks being an outcast among the other white kids so he can hang out with Cassie and her brothers. He walks part of the way to school with them every day.
- It's starting to look like the school Jeremy goes to is just for white children.
- For some reason, Jeremy's school year starts earlier than the school Cassie and her brothers attend. This kind of doesn't make any sense.
- Reader suspicions confirmed: We find out that the white children attend the Jefferson Davis County School, while the black children go somewhere else.
- Jefferson Davis County School flies the Mississippi flag higher than the American flag (1.89).
- Cassie and her friends go to the Great Faith Elementary and Secondary School—for black children.
- And now the school-year issue that Jeremy raised starts to make more sense: most of the black children have to help their families by working in the cotton fields, so their school term starts later and gets out earlier (1.91).
- Plus, some of the older kids work in the fields through November. Most of them end up dropping out of school altogether.
- None of the kids that Cassie sees in the schoolyard have on new clothes, except for the principal's daughter, Mary Lou Wellever.
- In fact, we find out that after the first day of school, the kids lucky enough to have shoes won't be wearing them again until it gets cold. These families really are that poor.
- One friend of Stacey's, Moe Turner, has a three-and-a-half hour walk to school. One way.
- Seriously, we would probably just give up at that point.
- We find out that Cassie is in the fourth grade.
- When she rushes into the classroom and tries to sit down, Gracey Pearson doesn't want to let her, because she's saving the seat for Mary Lou.
- Guess some things are timeless—like mean girls.
- Cassie sits there anyway. Good on you, Cassie!
- First-graders and fourth-graders share the same classroom and the same teacher, although the grades are separated by a curtain that runs down the center of the room.
- And you thought that today's educational cuts were bad.
- We learn that the first grade teacher, Miss Davis, has been "held up in Jackson for a few days" (1.105).
- Cassie gets in trouble for not responding with the rest of the group that she's willing to share teachers.
- Miss Crocker has a big announcement: All of the students will have books this year.
- Woohoo! Wait, what? Why is this news?
- Most of the students have "never handled a book before" (1.119).
- The quality of the books leaves a little something to be desired, since they're all worn out and damaged.
- Little Man causes a disturbance by—gasp!—asking for a different book. His is dirty and has been marked up.
- He ends up taking the book he was originally given, and Miss Crocker accuses him of putting on airs (basically, acting really snooty).
- Little Man sees something on the inside book cover that he apparently doesn't like. Okay, so that's a bit of an understatement. He flings the book to the floor and starts stomping on it.
- Miss Crocker threatens to whip Little Man.
- Cassie checks it out and sees what has Little Man so upset.
- It's a chart showing a year-by-year record of who the book had been checked out to and the book's condition. The condition progresses from "New," to "Excellent," to "Very Good," and then to "Good," and on down to "Average," "Poor," and finally "Very Poor" (1.Figure 1).
- And the race of the student is also recorded. The book has been checked out to white children until the book's condition was graded "Very Poor," at which point the student's race became "nigra."
- Brain snack: This and other racial slurs in the novel reflect the time in which the novel is set. It's how people really would have talked and thought. Plus, Taylor is trying to show the racial hatred that was widespread in the Depression-era South.
- So this is what Little Man was reacting to.
- We learn that Little Man can read (at age six) well enough to understand what is written in the book condition list.
- Miss Crocker doesn't seem to care. She just tells Cassie, "That's what you are" (1.148).
- And Little Man gets whipped.
- When Cassie rejects her book, she is also whipped.
- Cassie overhears Miss Crocker telling her (Cassie's) mother about how she and Little Man rejected the "perfectly good" books (1.156).
- Cassie's mom seems quite unbothered that her children reacted in that way to the books. This doesn't make Miss Crocker happy.
- Mrs. Logan glues plain brown paper over the offending checkout lists on the two books.
- She tells Miss Crocker that maybe people shouldn't just accept the way things are.
- Apparently, Mrs. Logan is considered a "radical" at the school.
- She plans to do the same to all of the seventh-grade books.

Day Trip to Donahue's
This weekend DH and I took our annual day trip to Fairbault, MN (appr. 1.5 hours) for Donahue's spring open house. Came back with 5 gallon-sized clematis: Bourbon, Henryi, Kingfisher, Natascha and Rogucchii and 1 two gallon sized: Cassis.
I planned to only pick up two but DH was an enabler pointing out this blossom or that blossom. The blossoms on Sugar Candy are huge! Wish I had also picked up Filigree.
I was told they are discontinuing Alabast and Artic Queen because they are such slow growers, didn't even have any 4in. pots of those.
Arctic Queen is a slow grower????
It is one of the most vigorous Clematis I have (see the 'Who Is Your Fastest Starter?' thread). Fantastic grower for me. I even bought another one (also Donahue's, but a baby). This second one grows much better than other double Clematis planted next to it: Franziska Marie and Josephine.
Congratulation on your purchases! I always had a success with Donahue's Clemmies.
alina, glad Artic Queen does well for you. I have had one for years that barely grows. I see it is peeking out again this spring. Moved it a couple of years ago so don't want to move it again, yet.
The comment was along the lines that it doesn't grow much, just sits there and that has also been my experience.
What zone are you in and where do you have Artic Queen located? Any suggestions to get this gal growing are welcome. I haven't done the alfalfa tea and will try that.
Thanks, Jeanne. Even if I didn't buy any (like that would happen, LOL) it is fun to see so many varieties in bloom.
I have not done anything special to her. The first AQ was bought in 2006 - one of my first five Clematis. I bought it from Bluestone Perennials on 50% off sale, so it costed less than $5 and it was in 2" tiny Donahue pot. This photo was taken about 3 months later:
We moved to a new house soon after this. She was potted in 1 Gallon pot for a couple of years. About two years ago I planted it in the garden. You can see that it was not an easy life for this poor Clemmie... This spring it completely covered Azalea shrub. Numerous buds. I can't wait to see her blooming.
I am in zone 6/7, MD.
My two Arctic Queens are entering their second season now and are so covered in buds that I can hardly wait to see the bloom.
Last year, one AC was a willing grower/bloomer, but the other one acted like it could barely survive. That was strange since they are planted in the same place--one on either side of an arbor.
This year, both are growing great, although the first AC (which grew so well last year) is about twice as far along as the little wimpy one that almost didn't survive. I strongly recommend Arctic Queen, but obviously, like most clems, some plants may be more vigorous than others, at least for the first couple years.

A labourer takes a break at a coal dump site outside Mazar-i-Sharif in Afghanistan
Supporters of Afghan presidential candidate Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai listen to his campaign address during a political rally in the northern Afghan city of Mazar-i-Sharif on Monday. Afghans will go to the polls on April 5 to choose a new President.
Local Afghan police cadets take a window seat at their graduation ceremony at a police training centre in Mazar-i-Sharif, the fourth-largest city of Afghanistan, on Thursday. Afghan police have been killed and injured since March 21 this year in what would be an astonishing rate of about 22 a day. Afghanistan's 350,000-strong security forces have experienced a steep rise in attacks as the Nato combat mission winds down

Former COI boss turns fire on first-ever Whitehall marketing plan
By Gemma Charles, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Monday, 10 September 2012 01:30PM
A former chief executive of the now-defunct COI has launched a blistering attack on the government's newly released annual marketing plan.
Carol Fisher, who left the COI in 2002, said the first-ever "proactive communications plan" released by the Cabinet Office last week raised "serious issues", which have "clearly not been considered properly" during its drafting.
Most of the ideas contained in the plan were "considered in the past and rejected for reasons of public sector propriety," she claimed.
Rolling out the "HM Government" banner as the consistent logo for all government departments, an idea set out in the strategy, "could and will be read as a political statement", said Fisher.
"If it appears just as another logo at the end of all ads, it will look as messy as many other public sector ads," she said.
Fisher questioned whether the COI spend figure, which reached £532m in the last year of the Labour government, could be compared with the projected marketing spend of £285m for 2012/13, which was made public in the plan.
"COI total spend numbers included all staff and building costs. Do the new ones? Are all PR and news management costs shown? I doubt it very much.
"Also, where are the total costs for redundancy of the vast majority of COI staff and empty offices?
The former COI boss also criticised leadership of the new marketing plan, in particular Jenny Grey, the executive director of government communications who is leaving to join banking giant Citigroup.
Fisher said: "All this [was created] under the auspices of a non-marketing specialist, who announced her departure from the public sector within six months of being appointed."
A Cabinet Office spokeswoman responded by stating that the plan was developed by number of "specialists highly experienced in government marketing", with departmental marketing heads also involved.
The spokewoman confirmed that salary, building, and PR and news management costs are covered by individual Government departments and is not included in the figure of £285m.
She added: "The first ever annual plan for proactive government communications underlines our commitment to ensure we only spend taxpayers' money on marketing which we know will be both efficient and effective.
"Measures included in the plans such as sharing resources and common evaluation standards will improve the propriety of government communications by making it more transparent and cost effective. Introducing a single HM Government logo across all individual Government departments will also improve public understanding of what we do and avoid wasteful spend on designing individual logos."

Eveing all, I am trying to install a HP photosmart 5510 as a wireless printer. It has connected with my router and network but my laptop cannot see it. I have checked that the firewall is allowing it and have disabled my anti virus but still not working...I have connected using the usb cable and it prints via that but not wireless, any ideas please

It's a couple of months since I used an HP printer, but a peculiarity of HP is that the printer must be connected to the network before, repeat before, trying to install it.
Remove all HP software (you might have to complete this manually), remove all connections (except wireless of course) and then install the printer using the normal install procedures through Control Panel.
You should be able to print once you have done this.
Then install the software to get all the HP bells and whistles.

My sister is having exactly the same problem as Old Geeza, so I have sent this page to her to have a look at and see if she can get it working. Her problem appears to be acceptance of the Router password. The numbers on the back of the BT Router are not being recognised. She has tried two numbers including the Admin password.
Hopefully, by following your details it will be OK.

i AGREE WITH mORWYTH
Lord knows what is going on with the site today but I'm having problems. Any way if this posts then I agree with Morwydd, let Windows install the generic drivers, you need to connect the USB then switch on the printer. Let Windows use the 'found new hardware' wizard and then show that it 'sees' the printer in device manager. Reboot and once logged in install the DVD/CD that came with the printer.

I'm 6 months pregnant and getting ready to go on a tropical vacation. I'm really pale and don't want to feel self-conscious about my ever-expanding belly and my pasty skin! Is it OK to use sunless tanner during pregnancy?
- Lisa
Although there's no proof that self-tanners are harmful, there haven't been many studies done on their effects on a fetus. But slapping on some self-tanner is far better than lying out in the sun and becoming potentially overheated. (Ultraviolet radiation from the sun can lead to skin cancer, and overheating can increase the risk for birth defects, such as neural tube defects, in the first trimester and dehydration later in the pregnancy.)
When you're in the sun during your vacation, make sure to wear sunscreen, drink plenty of fluids, and don't let yourself get too hot.
You should talk to your doctor before applying any "tan in a bottle." And instead of using self-tanner, you could try applying some bronzer to your face, neck, shoulders, and chest.

Setting up a ringtone in iTunes
Ask iLounge offers readers the opportunity to get answers to their iPod-, iPhone-, iPad-, iTunes-, or Apple TV-related questions from a member of the iLounge editorial team. We'll answer several questions here each week, and of course, you can always get help with more immediate concerns from the iLounge Discussion Forums. Submit your questions for consideration using our Ask iLounge Submit Form. We reserve the right to edit questions for grammar, spelling, and length.
Q: I read your article on adding third-party ringtones to the iPhone. I am using an iPhone 5. I added a third-party James Bond theme as a ringtone but it appeared in iTunes under Music. How do I move it to the Tones folder to add it as ringtone and thereafter synchronize it?
- Piyush
A: Unfortunately, even after all of this time, Apple hasn't done anything to make the process of creating ringtones easier, and adding your own tracks as ringtones still requires a few manual steps.
The first thing to keep in mind is that iTunes and the iPhone only support ringtones in the AAC file format, and a track must be no longer than about 30 seconds or so to be able to be used as a ringtone.
If the third-party ringtone you've downloaded is already short enough and in the AAC format, with something like an M4A extension, then all you actually need to do is rename it to have an M4R extension before importing it into iTunes. For example, "James Bond Theme.m4a" becomes "James Bond Theme.m4r." Upon import, this will automatically appear in the "Tones" section, read to be synced to your iPhone from there.
If your third-party ringtone is much longer than that, or is in another format such as MP3, you will need to trim and/or convert it first so that it meets these requirements. The good news is that you can actually do this using iTunes, although it's not a simple one-button process. If it's a longer track, you will basically need to set the start and stop times to select the portion you want to use as a ringtone and then use iTunes' built in conversion feature to create a new file in the proper AAC format.
Start by going into your iTunes preferences and choosing "Import Settings" from the General screen, and ensure that you're set to use the "AAC Encoder."
If the existing ringtone or track is longer than about 30 seconds, you will also then need to choose the track and select Get Info from the iTunes File menu. On the Options screen, select a "Start Time" and "Stop Time" that covers whichever third-second portion of the track you want to use. Note that you may be able to get away with up to 40 seconds, depending on the track, but staying at around 30 seconds is usually a safe bet unless you're willing to repeat the process by trial and error.
Note that you can use fractions of a second here to get your selection just right, and can simply play the track back to preview it before actually converting. When you're satisfied, simply choose Create New Version, Create AAC Version from the iTunes File menu to create the new shortened version of the track. The new file should appear in your iTunes library under the same name as the old one.
At this point, you will need to rename and reimport the new file to make it appear in the Tones section. The easiest way to do this is to just drag-and-drop the track directly from iTunes to a Windows Explorer or Mac Finder window, or simply to your desktop. This creates a copy of the file, which will have an M4A extension. Simply rename this to an M4R extension and double-click on it to re-import it into iTunes, where it will appear in the Tones section and be usable as a proper ringtone.
Once you're satisfied with this, you can go back and delete the converted version from your Music section in iTunes, as this is essentially a duplicate copy. Further, if you started with a normal music track, you will probably want to go back into the properties for that track and turn off the "Start Time" and "Stop Time" settings so that the complete track plays properly the next time you want to listen to it.

thoughts on tile
I plan to have an accent wall with 4x4 glass tile in a light blue. The rub comes in where I want a border in the bath tub area for which I am having a hard time finding the sizes of the same color in smaller sizes (1x1, 1x2, 2x2). Would it look to odd if I used a dark midnight blue for the border?
would it look to weird? Can't see having a dark glass tile accent wall in a small bathroom 5x7. Other pictures I have seen the border color matches other tile in the room. Attached is the inspiration photo of the room, however I will have a tub where the wood is, in white subway tile.
If the dark boarder doesn't relate to anything else in the room then I would not use it. The whole room needs to be planned together, if one thing changes then you might have to change other elements.
With regards to the dark blue accent that you show above, it looks very nice in the picture, but I don't think it would look good in this second picture. It all depends on the other elements in the room.
In this second picture I see large areas of texture. Nothing small and detailed like the accent tiles you show above. The only punctuations in this second picture are the pendents and plant on the ledge, and maybe the toilet flusher. In this inspiration picture I don't think I would like the colored strip around the tub.

Customer Reviews
when I first got my itouch, I remembered a drawing game my friend had. I wanted it, but didn`t remember the name. I mistook this for the EPIC drawing app (Doodlebuddy, BTW) and bought it...
BIG MISTAKE. This app is so bad, it`s not even funny! You can ONLY draw in red on black, and when you draw it`s all straight, a bunch of straight lines make up a curved line.
NEVER EVER BUY! THE GOOD REVIEWS ARE FAKE! And they say there`s going to be an update? IVE HAD THIS SINCE CHRISTMAS. there IS no update. Clearly, whoever made this app really doesn`t care.
This app is stupid, slapped together, and has no effort put into it.
It`s so bad
Don`t buy it!!
Barely works
Need to swipe finger 3 times to get a single line going

Excellent benefits including comprehensive medical, dental, and vision; generous PTO that increases after three years on staff; all national holidays and a week off for "winter break." And more!
- Teach for America Mar 15, 2015
Really good benefits. Lots of vacation time.
- Teach for America Mar 3, 2015
403(b) match , taxable in NJ :-), Employer contributes 70% of health,dental costs. Generous time-off 3 weeks to start with plus a week of winter break and additional 1 week of time-off after 3 years
- Teach for America Jan 18, 2015
The health coverage is excellent, with low premiums if you are getting single coverage. The time off is also great! 3 weeks of PTO, 10 sick days, plus holidays, plus 7-8 days around Christmas/New Years -which means I get to go home and spend a week with my family without taking any vacation days. There is a 403(b) with employer matching and free financial services as well.
- Teach for America Jan 14, 2015
Health & Dental covered. Had difficulty putting insurance on my family members due to non-traditional household.

We are connected with the University of Washington (Washington Corps) with some of the best professors in the field. We are also afforded many professional development opportunities through Teach for America to improve our practice.
- Teach for America Dec 15, 2014
4 weeks PTO, plus a week and a half off at Christmas. Great health/dental/vision for the whole family at the price it would cost my husband for just himself at his job. Flexible hrs/location for many roles.
- Teach for America Nov 15, 2014
There are no benefits from TFA as a Corps Member. Not sure about TFA staff.
- Teach for America Oct 22, 2014
State benefits package, as you are not "employed" by Teach for America
- Teach for America Oct 16, 2014
The best thing is the 3 months off of the year teachers receive plus holidays and weekends. The worse thing is you are killing yourself for 9 months and they give you just barely enough to survive over the summer.
This is not a sustainable position and providing for a family as a teacher is laughable.

Fire destroys Brimson home
A fire driven by strong winds destroyed a home in rural St. Louis County Monday night, Brimson Fire Department Chief Paul Tine said Wednesday.
The one-story home, about two miles north of Hugo's Bar in Brimson and 30 miles northeast of Duluth, was fully engulfed when firefighters arrived just after 11 p.m. A woman who lived in the home was able to escape with slight burns on her feet. A dog also survived but the woman's cats likely did not, Tine said.
