The weatherman didn't get it right. But Team MRF's Esapekka Lappi did!
With the picturesque route swathed in bright sunshine for most part of the day, the Finn (co-driver Janne Ferm) dominated the opening day of the Rally of Whangarei, the inaugural race of this season's Asia Pacific Rally Championship, here on Saturday.
The 22-year-old drove his Skoda Fabia 2000 with purpose to win five of the eight stages to return an overall timing of 1:23:13.6s, 33.3 seconds better than teammate Gaurav Gill (co-driver Glen Macneall).
Gill, the second to start the race after Lappi, won the other stages to gladden the hearts of fans of the 'Red and White' team.
In fact, the champion Indian driver took the two Super Special Stages of the day.
The morning session saw Lappi take the odd-numbered stages and thanks to Gill's engine stalling in the third, the European driver could build up a 19.7-second lead by the time the cars returned to the Service Park.
Speaking to this correspondent at the break, Gill did not seem unduly perturbed and indicated a change in the suspension to help him close the gap on the leader.
He added that he was getting into the groove, after being away from the machine for seven months, and was keen on driving sensibly without pushing himself too much.
The latter half of the day saw the drivers reprise the first four stages with the eighth being Super Special.
Best times
Continuing his good show, the Finn steered his Fabia adroitly over undulating roads, that criss-crossed the picture postcard-perfect lush green pasture, to return the best times for Stages five to seven.
"I had a good rhythm from the first stage and kept going. The good weather also helped a lot", was Lappi's pithy reply when queried about his first day of competitive driving at a rally outside his native continent.
When asked about being dubbed 'God' in Finland for his sublime rallying skills, the boyish-looking blond could only blush saying that he could live with that moniker and did not mind it much.
Lappi signed off by indicating his strategy for Sunday would be similar.
After perusing the first day's display and timings, it would be no surprise if he leads Team MRF to a 1-2 finish under conditions predicted to be akin to Saturday.
The standings (APRC drivers after Day 1):
1. Esapekka Lappi & Janne Ferm (Team MRF) 1:23:13.6s; 2. Gaurav Gill & Glenn Macneall (Team MRF) 1:23:46.9, 3. Hiroshi Asakura & Takumi Takahashi (Cusco Racing) 1:37:48.0; 4. Michael Young & Daniel Willson (Cusco Racing) 1:40:43.7; 5. Sanjay Takale & Sean Gregory (Sanjay Takale) 1:42:06.9.

Flume - Holdin On
Artist: Flume
Featuring: Freddie Gibbs
Producer: Flume
Album: Flume: Deluxe Edition
Avg Rating: 3.3 ( 3 votes )
A buzzmaking beatsmith hailing from Sydney, Australia, Flume makes his first foray into the DJBooth with Holdin On, a cut off the forthcoming expanded edition of his last LP. Fueled by wobbly synths and a leisurely, hip-shaking rhythm section, the headliner's production here is miles removed from Freddie Gibbs's usual fare, but I'll be damned if the Gary, Indiana repper doesn't kill it. In addition to the ESGN capo's gruff, masterfully-flowed guest bars, the cut features soulful, studio-tweaked chorus vocals from a pair of uncredited singers. Flume: Deluxe Edition is scheduled to drop Tuesday, November 8. In the meantime, you can still cop the February-released original set in stores and online.

Java fern turning brownish
Does anyone know why my java fern would be turning a dark red-ish brown colour (spotted all over the plant). I am new to aquarium plants. I got the java fern a few weeks ago from Petsmart and until the last week I only had a 20W light, but for the last week I have had 65W light (6700K) on in the tank for about 14 hours/day. I don't have any supplemental C02 and I have my hornwort in there from my pond. I can try to post a picture if that might help.
Thanks for anyone who might know! And special thanks to woeisme for his past and future help.
A picture helps, if it is just the ends and minimal spots on the leaves , I think it is normal in a newly aquired java fern. It takes a while to "break in", at least IME. Doesn't "need" organic CO2 but it will speed growth. I selected a nice one with no brown spots, attached it to a piece of driftwood and put it in an isolation tank. After a week it browned, then greened up nice once more. The link below has good info on aquatic plants.

Low Country Coin Club ended their 2014 Summer Show with good feelings about the future. After 2 ½ days of trading and shopping by dealers and collectors nearly everyone went home happy. Most of the dealers attending the show, felt it was a success and most collectors had a good time as well. Of course there is always the guy that couldn't find the perfect coin and left the show building a bit unhappy. But there is always next time.
At least three collectors went home happy after the show closed Sunday evening. The winners of the fund raising prize drawing. Those three collectors were Paul Liewellyn, the grand prize winner, a 1907 $5 gold; Diana Acuff, second prize, 3 Morgan Dollars; and Jan Placko took home the third prize, a 2014 Silver American Eagle.
For the first time the coin club held a Boy Scout Merit Badge workshop on Saturday afternoon. Attendance for the workshop was a little disappointing, but for the first time those working with the scouts were pleased and a number of scouts left the show qualified for the Coin Collecting Merit Badge. It was a learning experience and the club will work to make this workshop bigger and better at future shows.
The Club's next show is in the planning stage for February 6 – 8, 2015. Watch this site for details and bourse information. You can keep up to date with what's happening and future show information at the Club's Facebook page and on Twitter.

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals GM Steve Keim: We need to get Larry Fitzgerald 'more involved'
The 2013 Arizona Cardinals have some issues offensively.
There's the lack of a running game. There are all kinds of offensive line problems. Quarterback Carson Palmer has thrown the second-most interceptions in the league.
It all leads to the Cardinals being 23rd in the league in total offense and 25th in scoring offense through seven games.
But there's another issue that has people scratching their heads...why is Pro Bowl receiver Larry Fitzgerald not more involved in the offense?
Arizona general manager Steve Keim says there are a lot of reasons.
"I think people are bracketing him, I think they're trying to do some things defensively to take him out of the game, whether it's getting up in his face and pressing him or putting a safety over the top," Keim told Doug and Wolf Monday on Arizona Sports 620. "But that's something I know Bruce (Arians) and the staff are trying to do a good job of is to move him around and try to put him in a position to succeed."
Fitzgerald is coming off a 2012 season that saw his production fall substantially, but the bulk of that was chalked up to bad quarterback play.
This season, with veteran Carson Palmer at the controls, Fitzgerald's numbers have dipped again. Through the first seven games of 2012, Fitzgerald was targeted 71 times, had 40 receptions for 459 yards and three touchdowns. This season through the same number of games, the 10-year veteran has been targeted 58 times, and has only 32 catches for 422 yards and four touchdowns.
"There's a combination of things, whether it's the protection breaking down on a play where Larry is open or Carson makes a different decision and goes to another receiver, I think it's a number of things," Keim said. "He's obviously a guy, being our playmaker and the leader of our team that we need to get more involved."

MUSIC; Taking Movie Music Seriously, Like It or Not
By DAVID SCHIFF
Published: April 22, 2001
FOR two years in a row, the Academy Award for best film score has gone to a classical composer: first John Corigliano for ''The Red Violin,'' then Tan Dun for ''Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.'' While cynics claim that this is the film industry's way of advertising its high-art pretensions, Hollywood may really be ahead of New York in acknowledging that the opposition between film music and concert music is a phantom of the last century. Today the two styles constantly interact. John Williams's scores for George Lucas's ''Star Wars'' movies and for Steven Spielberg's ''Jaws'' and ''Close Encounters of the Third Kind,'' which resurrected the symphonic style for film in the 70's, have also exerted a huge influence on the work of young concert composers. Philip Glass's music for ''Koyaanisqatsi'' made Minimalism an essential component of any film composer's stylistic vocabulary.
Now the American Composers Orchestra is catching up with the Motion Picture Academy, presenting a ''Hollywood'' concert this afternoon at Carnegie Hall that culminates a two-week series of small concerts and film screenings. The program, conducted by Dennis Russell Davies, includes music for two camp classics, the Hollywood ''expose'' ''The Bad and the Beautiful'' (David Raksin, composer) and Alfred Hitchcock's Freudian whodunit ''Spellbound'' (Miklos Rozsa); the cult sci-fi thriller ''The Thing'' (Dimitri Tiomkin); and Hitchcock's unavoidable ''Psycho'' (Bernard Herrmann). Except for ''Psycho,'' none of these is a pinnacle of cinematic art, but each score is a milestone in film music.
The orchestra's warm embrace of Hollywood may be a deceptive sign of a thaw in the longstanding cold war between the musical cultures of the two coasts. Last year, when Washington had other scandals to think about, a minor Beltway drama -- call it Kamengate -- erupted around a concert by the National Symphony Orchestra that included the premiere of Michael Kamen's ''New Moon in the Old Moon's Arms.'' Mr. Kamen is a Juilliard-trained composer of many film scores, including ''Mr. Holland's Opus.'' But for Philip Kennicott, the music critic of The Washington Post, he represents everything wrong with music today.
Mr. Kennicott dismissed Mr. Kamen's symphony as ''pretentious and pernicious tonal tripe . . . scored in the usual sodden and overripe Hollywood manner.'' And he blasted the National Symphony for commissioning a ''well-remunerated Hollywood hack'' who ''doesn't need to be dipping into the paltry amount that's available to composers of serious music.'' Mr. Kennicott seemed to assume that commissions, like welfare payments, should be based on need. And he was nearly as harsh on works by non-Hollywood composers, criticizing Richard Danielpour's ''Voice of Remembrance'' as ''a succession of familiar moods and feelings.'' In other words, it sounded like film music.
Mr. Kamen's mediocre score hardly deserved so much ink, but Mr. Kennicott's bile, like Mr. Kamen's music, sounded recycled. The classical world's anti-Hollywood bias goes back to the dawn of film music in the 1930's, when Max Steiner established the genre with ''King Kong.'' During the Depression, New York and Hollywood contrasted starkly. Economically, New York was broke, Hollywood was rich. Politically, New York was left, Hollywood was right.
But sound movies were new, and Hollywood needed composers; a musical gold rush was on. As lights dimmed on Broadway, Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern and the Gershwins headed west, as did Copland, Herrmann, Alex North and Jerome Moross. While the tunesmiths happily adjusted to life in paradise, modernist composers like Copland were put off by the power politics of the studio system and the lush late-Romantic style of established studio composers like Steiner and Erich Wolfgang Korngold.
In a sense, Hollywood was the new Versailles or Eszterhaza. The studio moguls were princes of patronage, but composers had grown used to neglect and forgotten the advantages and disadvantages of steady employment. Every composer who got close enough to dance with the devil had a Hollywood horror story to send back east.
Disney's ''Fantasia'' (1940) turned Stravinsky's ''Rite of Spring'' into ''an unresisting imbecility,'' in the composer's phrase, with drastic cuts and ''Jurassic Park'' animation. Since the score lacked copyright protection because of the Russian Revolution, Stravinsky had no choice but to accept Disney's modest remuneration and immodest editorial insults. Still, he continued to seek out film projects, with little success. (Music he wrote for ''The Commandos Strike at Dawn'' in 1943 ended up as ''Four Norwegian Moods,'' also to be played by the American Composers Orchestra.)
Stravinsky's archrival, Schoenberg, fared no better. Irving Thalberg hoped that Schoenberg's name would lend intellectual cachet to ''The Good Earth'' (1937), the MGM prestige epic based on Pearl Buck's novel. Whether in a state of delusion or merely seeking an escape hatch, Schoenberg wanted to compose pitches and rhythms for the actors' lines and demanded final editing rights. He claimed to be relieved when the collaboration fell through, saying, ''It would have been the end of me.''

I have to assume that this palette is for the "true" MUA and not the "civilian" makeup wearer because this thing did NOT work for me! Because this is a cream, the colors are easy to blend and I did see a MUA on YouTube use her flash palette to make a foundation which is f'ing awesome, but I couldn't even come close to doing this. *sad face*
The colors crease. A lot. I guess primer would work but I don't have the time in the mornings for such foolishness!
I got this as a gift, but sadly I had to return as I just could do nothing with it. But like I said, if you're "artist" at the expert level, I'm sure you can do amazing things. But for "noobs" like me, no can do.
Back to Sephora it went.

When I was young, I did not believe in love. I spent my days pitying those poor souls who could not live without their "other halves", who spent hours frolicking around with their one true loves , laughing amongst each other, enjoying each other's company. For so long i lived in darkness. I did not understand their joy
Then one day I met the flash palette.
Okay well, I actually just saw it in a youtube video but it was still earth shattering. The artist took three shades of crayon coloured pigments and BOOM. She had foundation. Another swipe later, a concealer. Then blush. Then eyeliner. "Eyeliner!" I thought to myself, as if swiping a black cream over your lids was something revolutionary. I guess that's why they say love can blind you though because I was truly, in love. I watched, awestruck as a compete makeup look was created using one palette. But when I saw the price, my heart sank. Like Aladdin yearning for his princess I knew I couldn't have her, I was always too...broke. I writhed in pain for weeks, thinking about the palette, torturing myself with reviews. I had to have it, I just couldn't live without it. It was the one makeup product I had been looking for for so long. It could do everything, I could have a hundred shades of blush right at my fingertips whenever I wanted. It was magic, and I was addicted.
So, I waited. I waited for what felt like an eternity, slowly saving up for so long, until one day, I had enough. I was only twenty dollars short, and lo and behold, my dad was willing to give me twenty bucks to buy more junk food on campus. Little did he know...
So, a few days, and a 120 bucks later I was prancing, laughing, dancing around with my new love around the store-and the bus. I finally had what others did, the giddy, dopamine-rushing-through-your-synapses-at-the-speed-of-light feeling. I had love.
Okay, on to the actual review (this will be short)
Pros: long wearing, pigmented, easy to carry, easy to mix with other colors, as lip colors doesn't seem to transfer onto cups as long as you have a thin layer, probably will last a while, colors last quite some time on skin as well, can create new looks on the fly, you can make foundation with brown and white and yellow or pink depending on your undertone, correctors, lipstick blush, bronzer, and yeah
Cons: pricey, can stain skin, have to set with powder (I don't know if that's really a con though, it's just one extra step) , and you have to use a thin layer, or just don't use a thick coating, it's better to layer rather than have melting greasepaint on your face. Again not sure if that's a con. I'm not even sure if this product even has a con actually, I'm just making things up

I would love to like this but the price isn't worth it. My cons are I can't use it as an eyeshadow, because it melts away in 30 minutes, it creases in 30 minutes, i can't use it as a lipstick, and i am not a fan of its packaging. I mainly use this for concealing, blushing, and eyebrow shaping. I don't use the silver, and gold mainly, because it is for the eyes and using it in other places is too glittery for any other application besides as an eyeshadow. I wasted a lot of money on this and will not buy this ever again!

I really like this product. I once needed concealer for under eye circles while in the car and didn't want to use my NYX conc I had my flash color case in my makeup bag. I just begin to blend the brown, yellow, a bit of white, and the coral and voila! Lol the best.

I heard so many great reviews saying it was a "must-have" for makeup artists, so needless to say i was very excited to own it. I must say that i am only slightly impressed with this product. I didn't know that certain colors can only be used on certain parts of the face, if i had used the wrong thing on a client it could have been a disaster! Also, the colors crease even with a primer, so I always apply a powder eyeshadow on top. The possibilities are endless but for $100, I expected much more and am a bit dissapointed.

I absolutely love this palette. I gave it a 4 star because it can crease and it's not water proof. It would be super if it was water proof as well. But I do mix it with a aqua cream base and I find that makes it less creasing and lasts longer. I also set it with the HD powder. I use it for so so many things. I particularly love it as blush bases. It makes my cheeks glow all day with just one dab of my powder blush over it. The very first color I mixed was the dupe of Nars Orgasm and it was to the T!! Love it. Now if they can make it water proof like the aqua cream then this palette would be the best invention ever. I would buy it again but I don't think I will ever need to since it will prob lasts me a life time. Although I can see the white being used up faster then any other colors. It is on the pricier side, but if you think of all the uses for it, then it's a great deal!

These colors are really pretty cool, but my biggest complaint is that they can't be used on all parts of the face. Some can't be used on lips, others can't be used on eyes. If I were applying it to myself, I don't think I'd care since I have no allergies and my skin wouldn't break out. Unfortunately, I apply makeup to OTHER people and I have to take their safety into account. Given that, it's just not as useful of a palette as it looked like it would be at the store and I'm considering returning it.
Also, on a moderately hot day (85 degrees) I found that the palette has "sweat" some of the oils/moisture out which then beaded on top of the product while being transported in the car. I had to wonder if the product would last very long (can't say either way, just an observation at this point).

i really like this palette, it's definitely fun, but i'm not using it for everyday make up. more day of the dead, lady gaga, kiss type stuff. it creases in the eye area even with primer, & it didn't seem to dry, so i'd be nervous wearing this on a normal day. it washes off fairly easily with dove soap & with the colors they give you, you can basically mix them into anything. i understand the issue with safety, i've used all the colors everywhere & haven't had a problem, but it's worrisome if i want to use it on someone else.

This palette really caught my eye at the Make Up Show LA in 2010... plus I got my extra discount, so I was pretty much set on buying it because I love grease paints, I love mixing and all of the colors. I mean the primary colors were in it, so that alone, would of been worth it for the dollars I've paid.
For it's retail price, I think I would have to test them out to really drop almost $100 on it...
I do love this palette though but I do agree, depending on the primer you use, it may crease. You must apply with your fingers, because if you apply this with a brush, it's gonna take foreverrrrrrrrrr and you're gonna end up using your fingers anyways! I use the Smashbox lid primer, then the Benefit's erase paste because it's more sticky. I found that it works really well together. Maybe that's too much for some people, but the color pay off it really nice.
I'm gonna really love this palette as life goes on because it's gonna last seriously forever and this is the main reason why I think it's worth buying.
Not to step on anybody's toes, but on Sephora's website it does add the description of what colors could be used on the eyes, and which ones for the lips. It's under the precautions, instead of the item description... where I think they should have let it be more known.. so I do agree that they should of put it out there a little bolder for people to see.
I also agree that the packaging should have had some kind of security of being brand new... because it's just a lid on top of the Flash Case... who knows what happened in there. Sanitary purposes, MUFE!

I wanted to love this product sooooooo bad. And playing with the colors initailly I did. But I have played with it for months as eye shadow bases, or mix with loose pigments to add and enhance the colors. I can't say I like it at all, the color wears off almost immediately and creases, it is horrid. Though my investment of $95 is still out there so I will continue to play with it until I get it right. I will edit my review once I figure out how to make this work for me.

Your Voice: What does Pan Afrikan Week mean to you?
"Pan Afrikan week to me means that we are, as a people of the African descent, celebrating our togetherness and our unity. We're celebrating the history of intellectual thought- about 200 years worth- as black people. Pan Afrikan week means that we must signify and enhance the unity we must have amongst each other. So to me, Pan Afrikan is all about unity, togetherness, and a bond that we must sustain as one people of the African descent. Power to the people, because the people need power."
"Pan Afrikan week to me is almost like the Black community's homecoming. It's a good way for all of the black community to come together, students and alumni, to celebrate good times together, show off new skills and successes we have had."
"To me, Pan Afrikan week is a chance for NC State students to express African culture through different events such as fashion shows and dance competitions as well as concerts. It gives a chance for other students on campus, other cultures and races, to get the experience to see what some things in African culture are like because a lot of them have never been exposed to it. Overall I feel like it's very beneficial for our campus and hopefully people continue to support throughout the next few years."
White lies, a response to racism in American culture and at N.C. State
Yeremiyah Cruz | Correspondent
What is a dark lie? The nuances that penetrate global and American culture contaminate how members of society perceive everyday life. The most detrimental facet of this phenomenon is that most people are unaware of the influence that affects their perspective.
Yes, this is a controversial topic; however, it is necessary that citizens of America begin to confront the issues that halt the progress of our society. White privilege is a product of the United States ugly history, and it continues to inconspicuously permeate American culture.
This article aims to identify the factors that cause people to either associate or dissociate themselves from Black culture. Ideas that are prevalent in mainstream media, etymology, folklore, and pop culture present arguments that undermine what it truly means to be Black; these factors are explored on NC State University's campus.
Talking white, dressing white, white lies, light jokes, white light, white paper, white dress. Acting black, dark jokes, black magic, black sheep, black cat, black eye, blackface, black dress, black hoodie. It is obvious that phrases using the adjective black or dark are associated with negative things while the opposite is true for phrases that use the term white or light. Such subliminal messages are in part responsible for the construct of ideals that cause stereotypic categorization of individuals at a young age.
Various authors, including CBS and 60 Minutes, have done research that shows how youth are influenced to think that being black is associated with either a disadvantage or a negative character trait. These same psychological constructs subliminally affect the moral foundation of youth in America that cause their perception of reality to be distorted.
The biggest white lie of all is that racial inequality is a thing of the past, and that acts such as a group of Oklahoma University students chanting racial prejudices are a reciprocal backfire of the late famous authority figure shootings. The video simply epitomizes the influence that our history still has on life in America. Minorities have been targeted by civilians and police officers alike and have yet to be indicted. A federal investigation, released in early March, revealed that Black people in Ferguson, Missouri were indeed targeted by an entire police force in order to improve job ratings and reap salary increases through unwarranted ticketing and arrests. It is easy to go to Plessy vs. Ferguson on Twitter or quote Martin Luther King; but the fact is, the mid to late 20th century was more progressive than our current era. Something must be done about the grotesque discrepancy in real equality. There is no better a place than a university campus for real change to be initiated.
As the members of an empowered body, students and faculty must take it upon themselves to show that bigotry is an extreme form of injustice and will not be tolerated by any member of society.
Black students are not the only ones obligated to take on the task of moving into action, mainly because an effective solution to the Nation's racial divide can only be realized through the interaction of members from different backgrounds.
This common goal can be achieved by educating people on the Human Genome project that scientifically proves skin color is a negligible factor regarding any particular human being's ability and is only a miniscule fraction of the beautiful and extensive genetic scaffolds that are tarnished with the culture of greed and hate.
In other words, skin color is such an enormous yet superfluous focal point, pertinent issues that were meant to be addressed become overshadowed by the concentration of one's pigmentation. For example, Barack Obama's campaign was shaded by questions regarding the President's citizenship and loyalty towards the Nation.
No other presidential candidate has ever faced such challenges, and Barry's just as white as he is black! Americans need to learn the importance of multicultural tolerance and educate themselves about each other's backgrounds. A platform that invokes peace and understanding via cross-cultural interaction is the only solution to society's issue of racial inequality.
With various racial incidents occurring across the nation, the general consensus around the Black community is that the incidents themselves are not shocking; but rather the way that Americans are responding to such grave and historic matters, is. Khari Cyrus, an African American student, was recently elected as Student Body President.
Unfortunately, the North Carolina State University campus continues to suffer from the ignorance of racial inequality. As stated in an earlier Nubian Message issue, the Student Body President elect was faced with death threats and other racial remarks on social media. His only fault for being targeted was running for SPB as a Black person.
This is a blatant form of white privilege that only shows face when an African American member of society threatens the imbalance of racial inequality. The fact is, the greater majority of white members of society are not faced with the same challenges that Black people are faced with.
Affirmative action does not negate the advantage that has been gained through the deliberate crippling of minority Americans since 1492.
No matter what your ethnicity, this should be enough to make your blood boil. The direction of our society's progress is in your hands. What will you contribute to?
"It's your fault!"
Jillian Smith | Staff Writer
On November 22, 2014, a 12-yearold boy from Cleveland was gunned down by police in a public park. The young black male, Tamir Rice, was playing with a BB gun when a police cruiser pulled up next to him.
The video surveillance obtained from the park shows Rice sitting under a gazebo seconds before the two policemen pull up next to him. He stands up when he sees the police cruiser. Upon opening his door, rookie Officer Timothy Loehmann fires at Rice. This occurs within two seconds of the officers arriving at the park.
The response from the city, originally given early this month, said that the injuries to Tamir Rice "were directly and proximately caused by their own acts, not this Defendant [Loehmann]" and "by the failure … to exercise due care to avoid injury," lawyer-speak for "it's his fault, not ours."
He shouldn't have been in the park. He shouldn't have the BB gun. He shouldn't have been pointing it at people. He shouldn't have been black.
Nowhere within this statement do they fault the 911 dispatcher who should have informed the officers that the 911 caller said the gun was "probably fake, but you know what, he's scaring the s— out of people," and later said described Tamir as "probably a juvenile."
Nowhere does the statement suggest that the young officer acted before fully assessing the situation or that the city missed some potential red flags from the officer's background.
On March 20, they amended this statement to include less "charged" language, and Mayor Frank Jackson issued an apology for the wording of the first statement.
In my opinion, the wording of that first statement is a clear reflection of the attitudes many people have concerning the deaths of black men and women. They shouldn't have been doing what they were doing. They shouldn't have been black.
This statement and many of the articles following it echo the words we've been seeing for decades. In 1955, 14-year-old Emmett Till wolf-whistled at a white woman. He was beaten and hanged in Southern Mississippi. The two men involved were acquitted of all charges.
Mississippi Civil Rights activist and NAACP field secretary Medgar Evers was a danger to white segregation in 1963 and for that, he was gunned down in his front yard. The murderer, Byron De La Beckwith, a member of the White Citizens Council, was acquitted of all charges.
Rodney King is brutally beaten by four L.A. Police officers in 1991 after a high-speed chase. They are indicted on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and excessive use of force by a police officer. They are acquitted of all charges.
In February 2012, Florida teen Trayvon Martin was shot by George Zimmerman. The 17-yearold had been reaching for Skittles in his pocket while wearing a sweatshirt with the hood up. Zimmerman was acquitted of all charges.
In July 2014, Eric Garner's death is caught on camera as a NYPD officer holds him in a chokehold, suffocating him. Garner had been breaking up a nearby fight when officers accused him of selling loose cigarettes and then of resisting. Wilson was acquitted of all charges.
18-year-old Michael Brown did not follow the directions of police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, MO. As he ran away with his hands up, proclaiming he did not have a weapon, Wilson fired multiple rounds.
All of these cases have something in common: blaming black Americans for their own deaths at the hands of white racism.
Rather than focus on the hard-tosolve problem of systemic and institutionalized racism, we question whether the black victim is worthy of our outrage—whether his parents are respectable, whether he was a nice boy in school, what he was wearing, or they way his hand was moving.
In this society, the very term "black innocence" is an oxymoron.
As more and more violent crimes against the black community accumulate, we are left wondering what can be done to stop it, and when accountability will become a priority for our police and governments.
45 years: Celebrating our culture
Nia Doaks | Managing Editor
N.C. State is home to a variety of traditions and festivals. One week in particular, Pan Afrikan Festival Week, is especially important to those who wish to celebrate African-American culture and community on the University's campus.
Pan Afrikan Festival Week is a tradition that is in its 45th year at N.C. State University. It began back in the 70s, and has sometimes been referred to affectionately as "the black homecoming".
This year's festivities include a scholarship pageant, guest speaker Nikki Giovanni, and events held by various AASAC organizations. The week will end on Friday with the first ever Pan Afrikan concert featuring rapper Big K.R.I.T.
What does it take for Pan Afrikan Week to be put into action? The Nubian Message sat down with Amira Alexander, President of Black Students Board, to get an inside look at planning for this community event.
Nubian Message: How long has BSB been planning for this year's Pan Afrikan week and who is involved with the planning?
Alexander: I have been planning for Pan Afrikan week since October of last semester. My advisors and my board have been involved- they've been contacting our vendors and contacting caterers to make sure that everything is perfect for the week.
NM: How has it evolved and changed since its earlier years?
A: Well, there's not too much that I can get from the past, because we don't have much to reference in regards to previous activities and events. We only have three years of binders but have been around for 45 years. All that I have to look at are flyers, past Pan Af designs. They had kickoffs, they had cookouts and that kind of stuff- so we kind of have the same feel.
NM: What are the goals of this year's Pan Afrikan events?
A: My goal was to really bring it into what Pan Afrikanism means. I wanted to bring it into the actual definition of what it means to be African American or people of color and the struggles that they face. This is also why I brought Big K.R.I.T. He's not a normal artist. Even his nameit means King Remembered In Time. What artist do you know that references themselves as kings? He speaks on things that African-Americans struggle with every day and is true to his art form.
NM: What was the most challenging part of planning this week?
A: I'll honestly say the most challenging part was working with other organizations. A lot of people have a misconception of what BSB is- we're not an organization, we're a committee. This means that we don't raise money, and I have to go through my advisor to reach anyone and make these events happen [unlike with AASAC]. It's never been really clear what BSB was, and this made it [stressful] for me.
NM: How do you hope to see Pan Afrikan week change or improve in the future?
A: I would hope that the festive aura that I'm trying to place on Pan Afrikan stays. In the past there's been so much emphasis on the partying, and I feel like people don't put as much emphasis on the events that people work hard to have. I'm trying to make it fun and an actual celebration of our culture. I'm redefining pan-afrikanism. That's why I took Africa out of the design- Pan-Afrikanism is more than just Africa, it's in our everyday lives. It morphs into something different every single day.
NM: What does Pan Afrikan week mean to you?
A: The unifying of people of the African diaspora. A lot of people don't want to call themselves African-Americans in order to be politically correct- but you didn't originate from here. You originated from the Motherland. My goal this year was to bring it back to an actual celebration of our culture, of our history. Recognizing where we came from, recognizing who we are and who we ought to be.

In 2001 Doug Coombs and legendary local Ptor Spricenieks were some of the first people to ski the "Ice Line" in La Grave, France. Now thirteen years later, inspired by their heroes, Johnny Collinson, Ian McIntosh, & their guide Joey Vallone look to repeat this rarely skied descent. Ptor recently reflected on his experience with Doug in 2001, "I'm pretty sure it started with a conversation by radio. Doug and I were neighbors but we never used the phone. None the less, the time for 'that' line on the Glacier de la Meije was at hand...something we'd been looking at and scheming about together. As usual when that magic of timing and mutual inspiration come together, the mission is effortless. Too bad we were too busy flowing along to take pictures. The memories however, are super burned into my being. I remember how awed we both were to be in the middle of such a run. Despite Doug's casual attitude towards things, he was the most awed that I had ever seen that day. 'Full meal deal' I think was his superlative. Thanks Doug."

Panaroma, 8c, towers among the hardest big wall routes in the world, especially given that some of the holds on one of the 8b+ pitches have broken and nobody has sent it since. Tie in with Edu and Novato for an emotional adventure that will take them into the very heart of their relationship and to the peak of one of the world's great climbs.

In this 1970 "CBS Evening News" report, climbers Dean Caldwell and Warren Harding make history as the first to climb El Capitan's "Wall of Early Morning Light." Now known as "Dawn Wall," it's the same cliff face that Kevin Jorgeson and Tommy Caldwell free-climbed in an equally historic feat. While both had their challenges, the 1970 climb would prove to be more controversial thanks to a spat between the climbers and the National Park Service.
On January 14, 2015, Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson made the first free ascent of The Dawn Wall on Yosemite's El Capitan. Watch Tommy climb pitch 15 (5.14c) in this first footage released by the film crew on the wall. "The crux holds of pitch 15 are some of the smallest and sharpest holds I have ever attempted to hold onto," Tommy wrote on his Facebook page. Four unique camera angles reveal those minuscule holds and the 1,300 feet of exposure under Tommy's precarious foot placements. While multiple pitches of extremely difficult climbing remained above, the completion of pitch 15 was considered the last major hurdle to the eventual success of this seven-year project. Note: Pitch 15 was originally rated 5.14d, but was downgraded slightly after the completion of the route.
Long considered impossible, coveted by many and attempted by a few, the Fitz Traverse has fueled the imaginations of climbers in Patagonia for decades. Tracing the iconic skyline of Cerro Fitz Roy and its six satellite peaks, it spans four miles and 13,000 feet across snow and ice-covered rock, with epic route finding and endless rapelling. Seizing their chance during a rare extended weather window, Tommy Caldwell and Alex Honnold went big. The pair completed the first ascent in a five-day push during February 2014.
Tommy Caldwell has spent six years working to free climb The Dawn Wall, on the 3,000 foot El Capitan, in Yosemite National Park, CA. Along with his partner, Kevin Jorgeson, Caldwell is currently half way up the wall, hoping to succeed on the hardest big wall free climb in the world. In this bonus clip from the new film Valley Uprising, Tommy describes his Dawn Wall obsession, and the parallels with one of Yosemite's pioneers, Warren Harding, who first aid climbed the route in 1970.
