Newsgroups: alt.skinheads,alt.politics.white-power,alt.politics.nationalism.white,soc.culture.german Subject: ADL: Skinhead International; Germany Summary: The ADL's "Skinhead International: A Worldwide Survey of Neo-Nazi Skinheads" Followup-To: alt.skinheads Archive/File: pub/orgs/american/adl/skinhead-international/skins- Last-Modified: 1995/08/26 The violence that erupted in Germany over the past several years brought to public attention the neo-Nazi Skinheads, a group previously regarded as only a fringe segment of the youth scene. Operating as lossely knit gangs of juvenile thugs, their menacing presence has been noted in communities throughout the recently united country. They have swelled the ranks of right-wing street demonstrators, acted as security guards for neo-Nazi meetings and served as a ready reservoir for extremist agitators to tap for attacks on so-called aliens in German society. From the riotous assaults on foreigners in Hoyerswerda in 1991 to the waves of firebombings and beatings that have followed to this day, the Skinheads have been the main attack dogs. Molotov Cocktails September 17, 1991 - Skinheads armed with clubs, rocks and Molotiv cocktails attacked a building in Hoyerswerda, an eastern city that housed about 150 foreigners, mostly from Vietnam and Mozambique. Hundreds of local residents gathered to cheer the Skinheads and resist attempts by police to quell the rampage. The assault and public demonstrations of support continued for days, ultimately ending on September 23, with the evacuation of the besieged housing unit. August 22-28, 1992 - Rostock, in eastern Germany, was the scene of several nights of Skinhead violence against a hostel housing 200 asylum seekers (mainly Gypsies) and 150 Vietnamese guest workers. The hostel was partially destroyed by the 150 attacking Skinheads, who were openly encouraged by at least 500 cheering residents. Authorities evacuated the asylum seekers on August 24, and the guest workers fled as the building was being torched. Once again, violence rewarded the Skinheads with victory; the Interior Minister of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the state in which Rostock is located, was subsequently dismissed for having failed to immediately order the police to quell the riot. November 13, 1992 - Two Skinheads in Wuppertal (in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia) kicked and burned to death a man they mistakenly thought was Jewish, after the owner of the bar in which the victim and perpetrators were drinking shouted, "Jew! You must go to Auschwitz. Auschwitz must reopen! Jews must burn!" The Skinheads kicked the victim until he lost consciousness, poured schnapps on him and set him on fire. He died of internal injuries while the Skinheads drove to the Netherlands in the victim's car, where they dumped the body. In February 1994, the two Skinheads and the bar owner were convicted of murder and given sentences of 14, 8 and 10 years, respectively. Child Killing November 23, 1992 - Two Skinheads, aged 19 and 25, firebombed two houses in Moelln, Schleswig-Holstein, killing a Turkish woman, her 10-year-old granddaughter, and 14-year-old niece. Several others were severely injured. The perpetrators telephoned the police station and announced, "There's a fire in the Ratzeburger Strasse. Heil Hitler!" They made an identical call to the fire brigade regarding the second address. Michael Peters and Lars Christiansen were tried and convicted in December 1993, and sentenced to life imprisonment, and 10 years, respectively.[1] May 29, 1993 - Four Skinheads were charged with setting fire to a home in Solingen, North Rhine-Westphalia, killing five Turkish citizens. Three girls, aged 4, 9 and 12, and an 18-year-old woman, died in the flames. Another victim, a 27-year-old woman, died of injuries suffered when she leaped from a window. Ten others were injured. Neighbors reported hearing the arsonists shout "Heil Hitler!" The Skinheads were indicted for murder, attempted murder, and arson. Their trial began in April 1994 and was expected to continue for many months. October 29, 1993 - A group of Skinheads chanting, "Nigger out!" attacked members of the American Olympic luge team training in Oberhof, Thuringia, after a confrontation in a nearby discotheque. Two of the attackers were convicted in January 1994. One was sentenced to one year, the other to two years and eight months. A third was placed on probation for two years. March 25, 1994 - A synagogue was firebombed in the northern port city of Luebeck. No injuries were reported, but the synagogue was badly damaged. Four right-wing extremists, ranging in age from 19 to 24, were placed under arrest. While three of them were found guilty of arson and the fourth of complicity in the fire-bombing, they were acquitted of attempted murder even though people were in the synagogue at the time. They were given sentences ranging from two and a half to four and a half years. (Arsonists again attacked the Luebeck synagogue on the night of May 6, 1995, even as elsewhere commemorations of the 50th anniversay of the Nazi surrender in World War II were beginning. Among the ceremonies was a rededication in Berlin - attended by more than 2,000 people, including German Chancellor Helmut Kohl - of a major synagogue destroyed during the war.) May 12, 1994 - A mob of about 150 youths rampaged against foreigners in Magdeburg, an eastern German city. They beat five Africans on a downtown street and then chased them into a Turkish-owned cafe where four of the assailants were stabbled by cafe employees. Forty-nine rioters - described by police as drunken hooligans and Skinheads - were arrested and release in a few hours. Officials said they were not sure they had enough evidence to bring charges. Four days later charges were finally brought against a 19-year-old, identified as a ringleader of the riot and head of a local neo-nazi group of about 80 members. Commenting on this event, Germany's then-President Richard von Weizsaecker said: "It is hard to understand how, as we see from television pictures, hoodlums or right-wing extremists can charge through the streets, breaking windows and attacking people, and then 50 or more are arrested, but that same night they're all released." Eventually, a number of additional suspects were prosecuted; nine were sentenced to prison or juvenile terms ranging from 14 months to three and a half years. July 23, 1994 - Twenty-two neo-Nazi Skinheads desecrated the memorial grounds at the site of the former Buchenwald concentration camp. Arriving by bus from the nearby towns of Erfurt and Gera, the Skinheads ran wild, throwing stones and chanting Nazi slogans. They threatened to set on fire a woman staffer who tried to stop them. When the police arrived, they interrogated the group and released all but one. Criticizing this tepid police response, Ignatz Bubis, the chairman of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, said: "The way the authorities have handled this case and others is an open invitation to repeat the vandalism." Two of the police officials were subsequently suspended, three others were scheduled for disciplinary action, and the rampaging youths were re-arrested. In October, the leader of the Skinhead gang was sentenced to 20 months in jail and five others, all minors, recied suspended sentences or fines. September 1994 - Sachsenhausen, the former Nazi concentration camp in Oranienburg, has been repeatedly vandalized. The camp is maintained as a memorial to the victims of Nazi barbarism. Four Skinheads were caught there on September 2 shouting Nazi slogans. Earlier, guards found Nazi swastikas painted on camp property. On September 4, the unused bakery on the campsite burned down. Previously, a hut containing an exhibit about the Holocaust was destroyed. Passengers Assaulted These are among the more dramatic events that have been reported with shock and horror, but numerous other acts of violence have occured and - at a lesser pace - continue to take place to this day: assaults on individuals, brawls in youth centers, attacks on homes and businesses. For example, in October 1994, a gang of some 20 Skinheads boarded a streetcar in Berlin and severely assaulted passengers they believed were foreigners. The following months, police in Hanau, near Frankfurt, broke up a Skinhead gang of 20 who were suspected of attacking goreigners, a handicapped person and a former synagogye. Seized by police in their raid on the gang were guns, ammunition and banned Nazi propaganda. Two of those arrested were suspected of manufacturing homemade bombs. The gang had links to banned neo-Nazi organizations including the Viking Youth. According to the Federal Office for the Protection of the Consitution (Bundesamt fuer Verfassungsschutz), the number of violent right-wing extremists in 1993 was about 5,600, many of them Skinheads. This was a decline from the 1992 estimate of of 6,400. In 1993, Skinheads also constituted a large proportion of those who perpetrated 2,232 acts of right-wing violence, including seven homocides and 20 attempted homocides. The comparable 1992 figures were 2,639 violent acts and 18 homocides. The numbers, while showing some improvement, are still shockingly high. Anti-Jewish Crime Most of the bigoted violence has been directed against foreigners, especially Turns, but Jews have increasingly become a favorite target. The number of criminal offenses motivated by proven or suspected anti-Semitism in 1994 was 881, an increase of 34 percent over the previous year's figures. Sixty-one of these were acts of violence. (In a separate tally, the German office on crime (BKA) estimated that there were 934 anti-Jewish incidents - 64 of them violent - during 1994.) Although there were 11 fewer anti-Jewish acts of violence in 1994 than in 1993, the total number of criminal acts against Jews in Germany has risen steadily over the past five years, from 208 in 1990 to 656 in 1993 and 881 in 1994. And the perpetrators tend to be young: Fifty-six percent of those suspected of committing violent acts of an extreme-right nature (including attacks against Jews, foreigners and political opponents) were under the age of 21. The Skinhead lifestyle tends to revolve around gang activities. Criminal citations and jail terms are considered by many to be badges of honor and proofs of courage. Drunken sprees of random violence are routine. "Party until you drop" is the Skinhead jargon for the nightly drinking bouts which often end in the street as the Skins rove in packs looking for victims. "We stand totally drunk in our filth" runs the opening line of a popular Skinhead song by the Band Boehse Onkelz (Evil Uncles).[2] The song celebrates the numbed state of the participants who, even when arrested, continue their "manly" carousing in their cells. "Doitsche Musik" The single greatest influence on Skinheads is their music. It bonds them, voices their alienation, and glorifies them as defenders of German honor, while reviling foreigners, Jews, homosexuals, and the left. The lyrics of "Doitsche Musik" (a play on "Deutsche" and "oi") by the band Tonstoerung (Sound Disturbance) are graphic: Sharpen your knife on the sidewalk, let the knife slip into the Jew's body Blood must flow and we shit on the freedom of this Jew republic.... oiling the guillotine with the Jew's far. Until a recent government crackdown, much of the music had an openly Nazi hue, raising up the image of a new storm trooper as the political soldier of the white race. Stoerkraft (Disturbing Force), one of the most influential of these bands before abandoning neo-Nazism, had applauded the Skinheads as the hard and merciless exemplars of the racial elite: He's a Skinhead and a fascist He has a bald head and is a racist He has no moral and no heart The features of his face are made of hatred He loves war and he loves violence And if you are his enemy, he will kill you. Another band, Radikahl (word paly on "radical" and "bald"), recorded the song "Swastika," whose lyrics call for bestowing on Hitler the Nobel Prize. Volkszorn (People's Wrath) employs as a song title the slogan of Hitler's SA in their street battles, "Rotfront Verrecke" ("Smash the Red Front"). Other bands take their names directly from the National Socialist period: Werwolf, Sturmtrupp, Legion Condor (the German air unit that operated during the Spanish Civil War) and Kraft Durch Froide (an "oi" play on Strength Through Joy - the slogan of the Nazi labor service). At rock concerts, Skinhead crowds whipped into a frenzy often erupt into delirious shouts of "Seig Heil." Racist Records At present, more than 50 Skinhead bands are known to exist in Germany, as well as any number of smaller, amateur groups. Reflecting its subculture status, however, Skinhead music is largely an underground phenomenon. Record and cassette production and sales have mainly been handled through private fimrs such as Rock-O-Rama, located near Cologne; Skull Records in Bad Ueberkingen, Baden-Wuerttemberg; and Rebelles Europeens in Brest, France. In February 1993, Rock-O-Rama, the largest producer of such recordings, was raided by German police who confiscated about 30,000 CD's, tapes and records. The firm has since been cautious about the materials it handles. Skinhead concerts are advertised through word of mouth and their locations revealed selectively, in part to prevent disruption by the left or banning by the police.[3] These concerts cometimes conclude in a rampage, as the Skinheads, flushed with alcohol, run wild. Following one such event in Cottbus, where 600 Skinheads listened to Stoerkraft, Radikahl, and the visiting British band Skrewdriver, a mini-riot ensured. Drunken revelers spilling out of an open air concert in Massen in October 1992, trashed the stores in the area and assaulted a bus load of Polish tourists. In August 1993, police banned a scheduled concert in Pritzerbe, confiscating a veritable arsenal of weapons from angry Skinheads who had gathered to party and afterwards "flatten a Turk." Shortly before that, some 700 to 900 persons attended a concert in Prieros, Brandenburg, where they heard the German bands Frontal, Brutale Haie, Elbstrum, and the British band Close Shave. In July 1994, still another such concert was attended by 900 right-wing extremists in Rudersdorf, near Berlin. Until 1989, the "Fascho bands," as they are sometimes called, were confined to West Germany. After the collapse of the repressive Communist regime, a number of east German bands made their appearance. The first major concert was held in Nordhausen in 1990 under the auspices of Torsten Heise of the neo-Nazi group, the Free German Workers Party (FAP).[4] A year later, fuel was added to the fire when the British band Skrewdriver toured the area encouraging the formation of local bands. One of the first organized was Volkszorn (People's Wrath) in the town of Bruchsal, Baden-Wuerttemberg. Their tape, "Blood and Honor," which likened the Skinheads to the brown shirts, was an instant hit. Among the most influential Skin bands presently active are: Brutale Haie ("Brutal Sharks" - from Erfurt, Thuringia); Blut und Ehre ("Blood and Honor" - Ludwigsburg, Baden-Wuerttemberg); Endstufe ("Final Stage" - Bremen), Triebtaeter ("Rapist" - Mutlangen); Oithanasie (word play on "oi" and "euthanasia" - Gera, Thuringia); Legion Condor (Radevormwald, North Rhine-Westphalia), Landser (East Berlin), Sturmtrupp (Neuberg, Bavaria), Noie Werte (Stuttgart). The bands from the new German states are noted for their particularly brutal, racist and xenophobic songs. Skinzines There are at least 60 skinzines in circulation, the majority printed in western Germany. Under names like _Panzerfaust_ (a WWII anti-tank weapon), _Shock Troops_ and _White Storm_, they offer interviews with Skinhead bands, lists of favorite recordings, song lyrics, poems and cartoons. Inflammatory accounts of street battles and firebombings are printed with the admonition: "The good deeds must go on." A poem, "Hitler's House," published in the Coburg zine _Clockwork Orange_, ends with the words: "Some day the world will realize that Adolf Hitler was right." Other neo-Nazi skinzines are _Agressive_, _Der Patriot_, _Der Skinhead_, _Der Sturm_ (Storm), _Endsieg_ (Final Victory), _Eisenschadel_ (Iron Skull), _Erwache_ (Wake Up), _Glorreiche Taten_ (Glorious Deeds), _Hass und Gewalt (Hatred and Force), _Heimafront_ (Home Front), _Kahlschlag_ (Skin-Blow), _Macht und Ehre_ (Might and Honor), _Nahkampf_ (Close Combat), _Nordwind_ (North Wind), _Proiszens Gloria_ (Prussian Glory, misspelled to play on "oi"), _Querschlaeger_ (Ricochet), _Schlachtruf_ (Battle Cry), _Unterm Kroiz_ (Under the Cross, with a play on "oi"), _White Power_, and _Zeitbombe_ (Time Bomb). Also popular in German Skinhead circles is the Swedish publication _Storm_, a virulently anti-Semitic skinzine. Flux The zine situation - like the Skin scene in general - is somewhat in flux, a consequence of a crackdown on 12 of them in six states in July 1993. Among staffers taken into custody were Markus Dierchen of _Proiszens Gloria_, Berlin; Carsten Szczepanski of _United Skins_, Brandenburg; Andre Sacher and Angelika Teppich of _Angriff Uslar_, Lower Saxony; Silvia Berish of _Midgard_, Lower Saxony; Harals Mehr of _Donner Verstand_, North Rhine-Westphalia; Ilias Zaprasis of _Anhalt Attacke_, Saxony-Anhalt; and Marco Callies of _Schlagstock_, Schleswig-Holstein. Ironically, one of the strongest influences on the German Skinhead scene is the American racist movement. English phrases like "White Power" and "White Aryan Resistance" (WAR) are a part of the German Skins' vocabulary. The Confederate flag and Ku Klux Klan imagery are also popular, although attempts to organize the Klan in Germany have met with a feeble response. The most influential American source of hate literature is Gary Lauck's Nebraska-bvased NSDAP-AO (National Socialist German Workers Party - Overseas Organization). Particularly popular among Skinheads are his swastika stickers with racist anti-foreigner slogans. British bands and zines are also influential among the German skins. Revisionist pamphlets denouncing the Holocaust as a fraud are eagerly read by Skinheads. Two such tracts are "The Leuchter Report," distributed by Ernst Zuendel from Canada, and "The Auschwitz Myth," by Wilhelm Staeglich, which claims the Nazi death camps were a Zionist invention. Anti-Semitism is a staple item in Skinhead circles, with attacks mainly centered on Jewish cemetaries and memorial sites. There has also been an increase in assaults on synagogues. On September 21, 1992, three Skinheads and a known neo-Nazi, Thomas Dienel, carried two halves of a pig's head into the synagogue in Erfurt, along with a death-threatening letter. (Dienel, head of the 600-member German National Party (DNP), was arrested and sentenced to two years and eight months imprisonment.) In March 1994 and May 1995, the aforementioned arsons of a synagogue in Luebeck took place. Links with Other Neo-Nazis As early as 1982, one of the first skinzines to appear in Berlin, _Attack_, undertook "as a sacred duty" to convert the Skinhead scene into a disciplined, ideological movement. "The political consciousness of the Skinhead ranges from extremism to anarchy," the magazine noted, "but for most, the only thing is to have a good time." This attitude stymied recruitment by the established neo-Nazi organizations and extremist parties. Despite repeated efforts to attract the Skinheads to their ranks, results were meager at first. The Free German Workers Party (FAP) financed one skinzine, _Querschlaeger_, and exerted strong influence on another, _White Power_, which first appeared in November 1990. _Clockwork Orange_, one of the most popular skinzines, was published by Ulrich Grossman of Coburg, who, from the mid-eighties on, was a member of the German National Democratic Party (NPD). _Endsieg_ (Final Victory) boosted the neo-Nazi brawlers of the now-banned Nationalist Front (NF), as did the magazine _The New Day_, which printed the "action program" of the NF in one issue. Another example is the case of the neo-Nazi Dieter Riefling, whose zine _The Activist_ promoted the FAP and the Relief Agency for National Political Prisoners and their Dependents (HNG). The one-time manager of the band Volkszorn, Andreas Gaengel, was active in the Nationalist Front, and until June 1992 disseminated the zine _Endsieg_. A local Skin band, the Groilmeiers, has been composed of FAP members. According to _Informationsdienst_ (a monthly intelligence newsletter on terrorism, extremism and organized crime), the former drummer for the Kraft Durch Froide band, Andreas Sigfried Pohl, was chief of the organizing department of the NF, and was active behind the scenes in the neo-Nazi Society for the Advancement of Middle German Youth (FMJ), which was banned in 1993. In Autumn 1993 the group renamed itself Direkte Aktion/Mitteldeutschland. Its publication _Der Angriff_ (Attack), whose title is taken from the newspaper of Hitler's chief propagandist, Joseph Goebbels, has since 1993 stood out for its advocacy of aggressive xenophobia, anti-Semitism, and violence. "Nobody can tell us," said _Der Angriff's_ issue no. 5 (Winter 1994), "that he was not pleased when things started in Rostock" (referring to the burning down of a refugee hostel in August 1992). The same issue denounced reformed Skin bands, such as Stoerkraft, which distanced itself from xenophobic killings with its song "Arson Murderers - you don't belong to us." _Der Angriff's_ preference is the aforementioned band Brutaile Haie, which it calls "honest." Direkte Aktion is oriented toward the recruitment of unemployed and disoriented youth in the new German states. In January 1994 the police conducted pre-dawn raids on the group's hangouts in five states, and Brandeburg authorities banned the organization in May 1995. The more established right-wing parties are of less interest to the Skinheads. Franz Schoenhuber's party, Die Republikaner, offically discourages Skinhead participation. (How the Skins cast their secret ballots at election time is, of course, another matter.) Gerhard Frey's German Peoples Union (DVU), and the German National Democratic Party (NPD), while stoking the fire with their nationalist and anti-foreigner rhetoric, publicly keep their distance. Their public posture notwithstanding, one of the individuals charged in the murderous anti-foreign arson in Solingen has been identified in press accounts as having been a member of the DVU. In Muelheim, North Rhine-Westphalia, a 56-year-old Turk died of a heart attack after having been assaulted on March 9, 1993, by two 21-year-old Skinhead types. The two, both of whom had criminal records and were members of the Republikaner Party, first verbally insulted the victim with the epithet "Shit-Turk" and similar phrases. They then pushed him to the ground, and one of them pointed a gas pistol at the victim's head and pulled the trigger three times. Although the pistol mis-fired, the victim was so frightened that his heart collapsed. The assailants got four years in prison, and the Republikaner Party says it expelled them. There have also been cases of NPD members participating in xenophobic crims like arson against the homes of foreigners. Unity and Struggle These cases, however, remain the exception so far. For one thing, tactical reasons discourage the election-oriented parties from favoring direct affiliation with Skinheads; for another, most Skins have a distaste for these parties which they see as part of "the system." Yet the situation remains somewhat fluid. An example is the youth organization of the NPD, the Junge Nationaldemokraten (JN), which has around 150 activists. This group has lately adopted a militant approach, and disregarded official NPD policy prohibiting contacts with neo-Nazi groups. Last year _Einheit und Kampf_ (Unity and Struggle), the organ of the JN, published an interview with Andreas Siegfried Pohl, a former member of a Skin band, who was an official of the banned Nationalist Front. In the interview Pohl called for a "youth" and "youth-style" (read: "Skinhead") role in "redeveoping a national APO," or extra-parliamentary opposition, a codeword suggesting street fighters. The January 1994 issue of _Einheit und Kampf_ advertised concerts featuring the aforementioned hard-line Skin bands Brutale Haie, Frontal, Trietaeter, and Noie Werte, organized "in cooperation with" the JN. Another ad in the paper sought a new producer for the Brutale Haie band. There is also evidence that convicted Skinheads are receiving a thorough indoctrination in neo-Nazi ideology at "comradeship evenings" held in prison. Particularly active on this front is the aforementioned Relief Agency for National Political Prisoners and their Dependents, a right-wing group that sends a steady stream of propaganda to incarcerated neo-Nazi radicals and Skinheads. Germany's Skinheads have also developed a growing network of contacts with Skinheads in other European countries, notably England, France, Holland, Sweden, Austria, Hungary and, to some degree, Poland. Eastern Factor The collapse of the Communist regime in East Germany significantly affected the Skinhead situation. The emergence of the eastern Skins radicalized the Skinhead scene in both numbers and militancy. The aforementioned annual reports of the German intelligence services placed the total number of militant right-wing extremists (the majority of them Skinheads) at 6,400 in 1992 (2,600 in the west, 3,800 in the new eastern states) and 5,600 in 1993 (3,000 in the west and 2,600 in the east). Taking population figures into account, these estimates show a disproportionately high Skinhead presence in the new states. Among the principal beneficiares of the radicalization was the FAP, with a spillover membership in Michael Swierczek's National Offensive, Frank Huebner's German Alternative, Christian Worch's National List, and the Nationalist Front; all have subsequently been banned. The latter four were youth-oriented groups that emphasized street marches and "direct action." The Hamburg-based National List was banned by Hamburg authorities, and the others by federal officials. Another group recently outlawed was the Viking Youth, a neo-Nazi organization with about 400 young members. Members of the organization have in recent years associated with the Skinheads. Federal Interior Minister Manfred Kanther announced the ban in early November 1994, saying there was no place in Germany for "groups like the Viking Youth that propagate racism and anti-Semitism and teach youths to be violent, intolerant and to hate democracy." While slow at first to counter the neo-Nazi menace of recent years, the German government has since demonstrated increasing vigor in dealing with the problem. Utilizing the tools available to it under the postware German Constitution, it has banned some neo-Nazi groups, confiscated their propaganda materials and arrested many (including Skinheads) who have broken the law. The controversial constitutional change adoped in 1993, limiting the flow of refugees into the country, has moderated the anti-foreigner fever that earlier gripped the land. The consequence has been a gradual decline in the strength and rate of crime of Skinheads and other right-wing extremists. At the same time, the far-right political parties - the Republikaners and the DVU - have fared poorly in the recent federal elections. A Real Threat These positive trends notwithstanding, the extremist threat to German democracy has not gone away. Particularly disturbing are the rising numbers of anti-Semitic crimes, a trend which seems to indicate that Jews, as distinct from other "foreigners," are coming to be regarded by some German right-extremists as the "main enemy." Furthermore, segments of the neo-Nazi movement in Germany are believed to be accumulating weapons and going underground. Sources report that internal neo-Nazi discussions revolve around the idea of "armed resistance." Finally, the earlier profile of the German Skinhead as poorly educated, unemployed, and the product of a broken home must, in the light of later research, be revised. Police statistics now reveal a different - and more disturbing - picture. An evaluation (1991-1993) of almost 500 militant right-wing extremists (particularly Skinheads) arrested for violent actions showed 33.6% pupils, students and apprentices; 28.7% skilled workers and craftsmen; 11.3% unskilled workers; 5.6% office workers; 7.9% soldiers - and only 11.3% unemployed. Thus, these violent extremists have been coming in substantial measure from the middle ranges of society, not just the "lumpen" fringe. (Anti-Defamation League, 34-44) Notes: 1. Around the time of Moelln, large numbers of Germans took to the streets to express outrage at the neo-Nazi violence. In Berlin, a government-backed rally drew 300,000 anti-Nazi protesters, while additional candlelight vigils and protest marches attracted large numbers of Berliners. There followed demonstrations of 400,000 in Munich, 120,000 each in Karlsruhe and Stuttgart, 400,000 in Hamburg, 250,000 in Essen and 200,000 once again in Berlin. It is estimated that a total of some three million Germans took part in these anti-Nazi expressions. 2. Boehse Onkelz have since shed their affinity with neo-Nazisim. 3. Most recently, police stopped 231 Skins who were on their way to a concert planned for March 25, 1995, in Triptis (near Erfurt in eastern Germany), and prevented the event from taking place. 4.

Saturday, March 3, 2012 - Martins Ferry, Ohio
MARTINS FERRY, Ohio - - For the first time since 2010 and for only the second time since the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference introduced women's lacrosse, the Wilmington University lacrosse team has started 2-0 on the season, as they defeated Wheeling Jesuit, 15-1, on Saturday on their two-game two-day road trip to begin the year.
Wilmington (2-0) did not allow a goal in the first half and scored the first 14 goals of the game en route to the Wildcats second straight blowout. Wheeling Jesuit (0-3) got its lone goal with 2:05 remaining in the contest by Sara Fritzsimon to avoid the shutout.
For the second game in a row, the Wildcats got multiple hat tricks, this time led by Molly Taylor and Meggan Apgar. Taylor led the 'Cats with four goals on the day while Apgar added three goals. Liz Case scored a goal and contributed two assists to also record three points on the day. In all, 10 players scored at least one goal for the Wildcats, while Allison Kern added an assist to make it 11 different players tallying a point in the game.
The scoring got starting 30 seconds into the match, as junior captain Liz Case scored an unassisted goal with 29:27 remaining in the half. Ashley Kroll, Apgar, Rebekah McCurry, Taylor and Jaclyn Hall all scored the next five goals throughout the first half to make it 6-0 and six different goal scorers.
Taylor really opened things up with under three minutes to play before the break. She recorded the next three goals of the game in a 1:17 span to expand the lead to nine. She got an assist from Kern on her first goal of the streak and Case on the second mark.
Megan Keffer opened the second half with her lone goal of the game while Jessica Graybeal, Rebecca Guethler and Allison Sain all got on the board with a second half goal.
Kaitlyn Hall picked up her second win in as many days, needing to make four saves for the victory.
Guethler got the bulk of the offense started by gathering four draw controls on the afternoon. Case, Graybeal and Taylor all picked up two draw controls while as a team, the Wildcats held the advantage on draws 13-4. Guethler also had a game-high three ground balls.
Wilmington will have 10 days off to regroup before trying to improve to a program record 3-0 on March 13. The team will play Millersville in its home-opener at the Kirkwood Soccer Complex starting at 3 p.m.

Ayotte seeks hearing into the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command
In a letter sent Wednesday to Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, Ayotte writes that the GAO report "details serious problems within JPAC that are hindering efforts to locate and bring home missing persons from past armed conflicts...it underscores the need for the Committee to hear directly from JPAC officials about these disturbing findings and to ensure proper steps are being taken to address these problems."
The GAO report released Wednesday states, "While the Department of Defense has made some progress in promoting communication among the several organizations responsible for accounting for missing persons — known collectively as the accounting community — DoD's capability and capacity to accomplish its missing persons accounting mission is being undermined by longstanding leadership weaknesses and a fragmented organizational structure. Leadership from the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (USD Policy) and U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM) have not been able to resolve disagreements among accounting community members, thereby impacting DoD's ability to meet the mandated goal of increasing its capability and capacity to account for 200 missing persons a year by 2015."

A trip to the Denver County Fair ended up with several people saying they were given a chocolate bar that had marijuana in it.
Two people went to the hospital after ingesting the weed.
They all say they became extremely sick after sampling "Full Melt" candy bars, handed out by the LivWell vendor at the fair's pot pavilion during the weekend.
The fair had a strict "no pot" policy.
And all three say the vendor specifically told them there was no marijuana in the candy.
"They told us there was nothing in them. They were free samples anyone could have grabbed. I asked the vendor twice and they told me no there's nothing in them," says Kari Mitchell.
It was a big scare for all three of them. They did not enjoy the effects they felt and doctors say it can be dangerous when you eat something and you don't realize it has marijuana in it.
Two men went to the hospital and tested positive for THC. Everyone is OK now.
The company, the fair and Denver police are all looking into how this happened.
The company says it intends to pay the medical bills for the people who were affected.

Draft, D line and...
Nov 29, 2008 at 19:42 »
Well It is starting to become clear who the top 30 - 50 Guys are in the draft, and I am sure it will Change somewhat after the combine and when the underclass declares. ( a Good source on the draft is
top 64). Going into this season many thought the big needs for 2009 would be OL and DL.
I would be surprised to see Smith back next year, but would not be if Starks is back. Starks has not played LT all that bad. I would be interested to see how he holds up with the rest of the schedule. I think an early pick somewhere along the O line is a must, but at what position and would a high pick unseat anybody we have now ? The O line has looked better of late, but lets see how the season plays out.
The D line had no depth when we started the year, but I think it is just the opposite case now. Every player who has played has played well and that includes Eason. Perhaps a young player to groom for down the road.
That said, I think some combination of a OL DL S CB and WR in the first four rounds. Hope they can re-up McFadden. He really was starting to look like a shut down CB.

Their recent play hasn't changed my mind as to what their targets should be.
First three rounds
to be OL (R1), DL or OL (R2) and whichever isn't taken in R2 in R3.
Oh, and a bigtime FA OL addition like Gross. Smith is definitely gone and if they're going to give big money to a lineman, which is what would happen if Starks stays, I'd much rather they give it to a proven talent like Gross. If they snag a bigtime FA lineman, I guess they could go with a CB or maybe a S in R3. At the very least, that move would give them a lot of flexibility as to which positions they can target.

I tend to agree with you, AJ. The one thing that I would tolerate, though, is a pick of a top CB in round 1 IF:
1) We manage to sign a solid FA OL.
2) We fail to sign McFadden
I'm basing this on the additional belief that we will have at least two #3 picks that we could either use to pick up OL/DL depth, or package to move up to get a stud player in the middle of the first or second. It is going to be hard for lower round draftees to make this team, particularly at the skill positions, so why not move up in the first and/or the second for OL/DL?
Additionally, I wouldn't have a problem with us picking a DL in RD 1, if value is there -- since a prototype 3-4 DL is not usually coveted as is a 4-3 DE or DT at the top rounds. I'm worried that (once again) the OT position will be pretty picked over if we wait until the end of the first round to pick, and our guys at DL (minus maybe Eason) are really, really, old.
Still, I think ( as I did the previous two drafts), at least 2 of our top 4 picks need to be OL.

Yeah, what he said. Pittsburgh should have (9) picks this year. I'm figuring a high comp for Faneca, & I think Tampa owes them a 7th for Mahan. I'd be thrilled if they used a 5-6 of 'em across the two lines.

With that many picks, it wouldn't at all surprise me if they package them to move up in the mid rounds. Maybe snag that de rigeur second round tight end Colbert covets.

One thing I would love to besides the obvious Oline and Dline picks is any WR/corner/safety that doubles as a game-breaking kick returner.
I know we went WR early with Sweed last year, and if we re-up B-Mac the need for corner isn't huge. I also know our starting safety tandem is one of the if not the best in the league.
But I am sick of the non-existant return game. I know we swung and missed with Willie Reid, but I think that had more to do with the dreaded lis franc injury than his ability.
Maybe Russell is the answer at kick returner. Maybe not. Holmes had a big punt return yesterday, but we've been basically fair-catching all year. A big time returner who can play in the nickel or dime/learn a position while providing big play potential on special teams would give us a dimension that is not only missing but pretty much hurts us week in and week out.
Field position is still huge. And we lose that battle every week due to a weak return game.

I agree, Merman. Most of my mock drafts for last year included a KR/PR specialist. Russell is about the best of the bunch, but Devin Hester he ain't.

A cornerback is going to fit into the picture somewhere.
If McFadden is resigned, then probably mid-rounds (Townsend started to show his age this year, IMO). If not, that's our #1 this year.
We'll have to do something at WR. There's two issues to be dealt with this year. Nate is an UFA. If Nate walks, I presume sweed will be the #3 guy for next year. We'll need a #4. Maybe Dallas Baker will stick finally. Problem #2 is Hines. I suspect he'll be signed to a say 2 year extension- if he wants to play a couple more. That would help our cap as his 2009 hit can be spread out in the form a signing bonus. If Hines decides to retire, that's going to leave a hole for 2010. Given the Colbert philosophy of value based picks, perhaps this comes somewhere in the midrounds. I doubt if we ever break camp next year w/ more than 4 WRs. IMO Moore's ability to line up in the slot and act as a 4th receiver allowed for Baker's release.
Hartwig has been a nice addition at center. I really think he could be extended, removing the need to draft that position. Projected line next year... Starks/Hills, Stapleton, Hartwig, Simmons, Colon. I can see late round depth. Depending on our resignings, the O-line situ may be less dire than before. This unit is starting to cohere of late, no?
D-line is my vote for high-round picks. Snacks will be in the last year of his contract. I think Aaron Smith has several good years infront of him, and Kiesel + backups have played well. However, I don't think it was coincidental that New England had good success running the ball when our second unit was in there. I think you'll see and infusion of youth at the position, with possibly a nose guard at #1 or #2, or a DL that can play NG or DE.
Finally, you'd think that we'd have to address safety depth. I very much doubt that Anothony Smith is back; and how much does Ty Carter have left in the tank?

Sounds like we all agree on our needs. I think we will just have to see what FAs come and go. I sure hope we get an extra 3rd for CampoFeneca111

Well, I don't think we're jumping into FA and landing the LT of our dreams. Sorry. The FO doesn't operate that way, and we all know it. We have a lot of FA questions.
At QB, Batch is UFA, and Lefty may be looking for another spot. Do we want Batch? Will we make a move to keep Lefty? In any event, Dixon needs to show improvement, and a very late/UDFA QB is not out of the question.
Nate Washington is a UFA. His inconsistency drives us mad, but he does show talent. So do we keep him? My gut says someone offers him more than we do, and Sweed moves to #3, leaving a question for depth.
OL is in transition: Chris Kemoeatu is UFA, Willie Colon is RFA, Trai Essex is UFA, Max Starks is UFA, and Marvel Smith is UFA. I'm tempted to turn the whole lot over, seriously. But I think Colon will be kept, and if we were smart we'd move him inside, with his ability as a RT swing man noted. Kemo has beeen just OK, IMO. Essex could be retained on the cheap for depth. Starks is going to get a better offer elsewhere. Smith is done.
DE Orpheus Roye is a UFA. Maybe we keep him cheap, but IMO we really need to move younger.
LB Keyaron Fox UFA, LB Andre Frazier UFA, LB Arnold Harrison RFA. Fox should be a priority sign if for no other reason than STs. Frazier gives depth and can probably stay cheap. Harrison, not sure what his injury status is, perhaps he could battle for depth at the min.
CB Anthony Madison is RFA; I don't know that I'd make him a priority. CB Bryant McFadden is UFA, and I would make him the top UFA priority, over Starks, Washington, and Kemo. McFadden can be a starter for us, IMO, and I think maybe his scant playing time this year catches our FO a break.
S Anthony Smith is RFA, and frankly, I don't know what to think. He has so much potential, but seems like a minor head case, and hasn't shown strong development. Maybe we keep him for depth, maybe.
TE Sean McHugh is RFA; who cares. CB Fernando Bryant is UFA; who cares. P Mitch Berger is UFA, but with Sepulveda returning, adios.
So here's a very rough early mock.
1. DT/NT Terrence Cody, Alabama, JR, 6'5", 368#.
If he declares, could go higher than our pick. Mount Cody is simply the biggest, baddest DT in this draft, and would give us a natural successor (3-4 or 4-3) to Hampton, who is looking tired to me. NTs are a tough commodity to come by, and the 3-4 needs a solid nose.
2. FS/CB Derek Pegues, Miss. St., 5'10", 195#, 4.49 (est.).
; Quadruple threat. Played FS at MS, and could be a solid backup/nickel/dime guy. But also played some corner, so he has that flexibility. Oh, and he's a dangerous PR/KR, too, so he'll contribute right away. Maybe keep Anthony Smith a year to see where Pegues fits in? (Cf. Eugene Wilson.)
3. CB Domonique Johnson, Jackson St., 6'2", 190#, 4.38 (est.).
Might go off earlier, as speedy CBs often do. Coming from a small school might offset that. Has the physical traits to be an outstanding CB, and would have time behind Taylor, McFadden, Townshend and Gay to learn the trade. Has a little KR experience. (Cf. Ike Taylor.)
3c. OT Troy Kropog, Tulane, 6'6", 298#, 4.90 (est.).
This guy is going to move up the draft boards, and to get him with the Faneca comp might be a steal. Great lateral movement, which we need to seal against speed rushers, Kropog might need to add some weight. Who knows if Tony Hills will ever amount? Have a feeling this guy could be a LT anchor. Graded out at a superb 89% in 2007. (Cf. Ryan Diem.)
4. DE/DT Alex Magee, Purdue, 6'3", 295#.
Not great 4-3 stats as a DT, might be an interesting DE in the 3-4. Speed is a plus. (Cf. Jarvis Green. Possible alternate, DE/DT Ron Brace, Boston Coll.)
5. ILB/SS Kevin Ellison, US, 6'1", 228#, 4.64 (est.).
Plays SS for USC but could easily switch to 3-4 ILB. Sooner or later, Foote and Farrior will be gone. Timmons will be a stud. Who else we got? Humpal? Key Fox? Get this kid in now, and give him a year or two. Could be a terror roaming the middle. (Cf. Dawan Landry.)
6. OT, Eric Vanden Heuvel, Wisconsin, 6'8", 324#.
Strictly a RT, allowing us more flexibility with Willie Colon, who by eyewitness accounts appears to be a guard playing out of position. Get someone with some reach out there who can maul, OK? Just a big SOB. (Cf. Drew Strojny.)
7. WR Deon Butler, Penn State, 5'10", 173#, 4.47 (est.).
Even if we don't lose Washington, we've seen that WR depth is an issue (Dallas Baker was pressed into action, and subsequently shitcanned). Butler, like teammate Jordan Norwood, is a speedy player who's simply playing for the wrong team. Penn State has the WRs to be a major passing offense, but we all know Joe Pa is stuck in another millennium. Both Butler and Norwood could be great late-round steals. (Cf. Cedrick Wilson. Possible alternate Norwood.)
7T. Drew Willy, QB, Buffalo, 6'3", 214#.
If either Batch or Lefty stick, we're using the 7th round pick we got in the Mahan trade for a practice squad/developmental guy. 33 TDs to 5 INTs since the middle of last season. Got the Bulls to a bowl.
Don't know if we're due for more than 1 comp pick; I added one in R3, but possibly we're due for more.

The CoMMpass Study℠
A groundbreaking study
In 2011, the MMRF launched the CoMMpass Study, the first of its kind in myeloma. A collaboration of world-class researchers in over 90 institutions — a "dream team" of cancer specialists — the CoMMpass Study is helping researchers gain access to each patient's genetic analysis to help them learn how patients respond to therapies. The findings cannot be patented and all the data are placed on a public portal (the MMRF Researcher Gateway). The resulting data set will be the largest, most comprehensive catalog of multiple myeloma including the largest set of whole genome sequences. It will provide far more information than is possible from current cancer tissue banks that typically include one sample per patient.
Benefits for all
By participating in CoMMpass, patients will help accelerate the discovery and development of precision medicine for multiple myeloma — and be among the first to benefit from it as treatments become available.

Symptomatic multiple myeloma with measurable disease that includes at least one of the following:
- Serum M protein ≥1 g/dL – Urine M protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hr – Involved free light chain level >10 mg/dL and an abnormal serum free light chain ratio (1.65)
- Candidate for systemic therapy that includes an IMid® (eg, lenalidomide, pomalidomide, or thalidomide) and/or a proteasome inhibitor as part of the initial regimen
- No more than 30 days from baseline bone marrow evaluation to initiation of therapy
- Be able to read, understand, and sign the Informed Consent document
Exclusion criteria
Patient is already receiving systemic therapy for multiple myeloma (a single dose of bisphosphonates and up to 100 mg total dose of dexamethasone or equivalent corticosteroids are permitted prior to registration on study)
Currently receiving systemic therapy for multiple myeloma. Please note that a single dose of bisphosphonates and up to 100 mg total dose of dexamethasone or equivalent corticosteroids are permitted prior to study registration
Prior (within the last 5 years) malignancy. Exceptions include basal or squamous cell carcinoma or in situ cancers of the cervix
Enrollment in a blinded clinical trial for the first-line treatment of multiple myeloma. Patients may be enrolled in subsequent clinical trials as long as continued access to data and tissue, as per this protocol, is not prohibited
More about the CoMMpass Study
Personalized medicine
The CoMMpass Study is at the center of the efforts of the MMRF to improve myeloma treatments and patient outcomes through personalized medicine. The information it collects will enable existing treatments to be tailored to specific patients based on their markers, and new targeted treatments to be identified and developed with research and industry collaborators.
10-year duration

Explain how to perform debugging when something doesn't work in Cargo. Indeed it can happen that the container does not start or stop as expected. Or that some deployable does not deploy fine. Or whatever else! Here is a short list of things you can do to try debugging the problem.
Enabling the Java debugger
Most Java Virtual Machine implementations support remote debugging. Once started in debug mode, you can then remotely connect to your container using any IDE and debug your container and/or application.
In order to do so, add the following arguments to the JVM arguments configuration:
- suspend is whether the launch of the container should first wait for a remote debugger to connect. If
, the container will wait for you to connect with your remote debugger before starting; ifn
the container will start immediately and at the same time listen on the remote debugging port. - port is the port number to use for remote debugging.
Here is an example for starting a JOnAS 5.x container in Remote Debug on port 8000 without suspend mode using the Maven2 plugin:
Once the server is started, follow these steps to remotely debug your server and/or application:
- Click Debug - Attach Debugger...
- In the window that appears, type in the remote host name and the port number then click OK
Steps for achieving the same in Eclipse IDE are similar.
Redirecting container output to a file
The Container.setOutput(File)
API allows you to redirect the container console (stdout) to a file. This is the first file you should check in case of problem.
Example using the Java API
Starting Tomcat 4.x specifying an output console log file:
Use the container.setAppend(true|false)
method to decide whether the log file is recreated or whether it is appended to, keeping the previous execution logs (by default, the file is recreated at every container start or stop).
Example using the Ant API
Starting Tomcat 4.x specifying an output console log file:
Use the append="true|false"
attribute for controlling the log file creation behavior.
Generating Cargo logs
Some Cargo classes support generation of logs. This is implemented through the notion of Logger
For example to turn on logging monitoring on a Container
class, you can use:
There are several Loggers that are readily available in the Cargo distribution:
- FileLogger: logs messages to a file
- SimpleLogger: logs messages to the console (stdout)
- AntLogger: logs messages using Ant's logging mechanism
Turning on container logs
Cargo is able to configure containers to generate various levels logs. There are 3 levels defined in o.c.c.container.property.LoggingLevel
: LoggingLevel.LOW
, LoggingLevel.MEDIUM
and LoggingLevel.HIGH
is the default value). They represent the quantity of information you wish to have in the generated log file. You can tune container logging by using the following API:
The generated log files will then be found in the working directory you have specified on the container (through the container.setWorkingDir()
When using the Ant tasks, you can specify the log file by using the log
attribute. For example:

Locally inspired You can feel the palpable sense of history which runs through the streets of Edinburgh, particularly where our Edinburgh boutique hotel is located. Our hotel occupies five original Georgian townhouses dating back to the early 1800's and we've preserved many of the building's historic features, including our stunning stairwell, and each of our floors takes inspiration from a different side of Edinburgh's rich historic or modern-day culture. Nearby Thistle Street provides the inspiration for our restaurant and lounge, Turquoise Thistle, which serves the best of Scotland's great produce.
Discover the neighbourhood If you want to enjoy the wonderful taste of haggis, Scotland's national dish, ask our staff to direct you to Crombies, a renowned butcher's shop about four blocks from our Edinburgh hotel. And a visit to the Whiski Room in Edinburgh Old Town is a must if you're a fan of a wee dram. Find out more in the Local guide section, then 'What's Nearby'

Comments about GT Bicycles GT Bikes GTR Series 2 Bike 2013:
I have been riding a GT Avalanche Expert mountain bike, on the streets, like a road bike for the last 3 years. I blew out two discs in my back 3 years ago and can't ride off road or lift weights, but so far can get away with road riding. This is my FIRST road bike, and after coming from riding my mountain bike LIKE a road bike ...Im BLOWN away!!! After having a 32lb moutain bike between my leg for 3 years, I was up to averaging about 18.5 miles in an hour. Now with the GT GTR Series 2 ...I immediately went up to 23 miles in an hour and systematically I'm much less fatigued. Everything on the bike is up to my expectations. Weight, Shimano 105 components, wheelset, everything. for $799.99 it blows ANYTHING out of the water. 1000% satisfied. Btw ...the color is extremely unique and cool in person ....matte silver and matte reflectiv3e blue. I get mega compliments from guys and girls on their "name" brande specialized, cannondale, trek, etc. There's nothing out there that quite has this color scheme. When they see the components and feel the weight ...they shake their heads ...ALL of them when I tell them $799!!!
Zero complaints, 1000% satisfaction. I was looking at bikes locally, anything around here was $1500.00 and up. I happen to love GT's geometry and color scheme. Summary, this right here ...is the "best buy" in the road bike world!

Was hesitant to buy online. Bike/Packaging was exactly as video explained it would be. Included checklist from mechanic. Easy to get up and running.
We'll see about Tektro brand brakes in the long run. A little noisy in the drivetrain area. After a few minor adjustments should be ready to go. Might upgrade a few components in the future, but decent entry-level components to start with.

Comments about GT Bicycles GT Bikes GTR Series 2 Bike 2013:
This bike is a great bike, it is priced far lower than any other bike of its caliber I have found. I truly enjoy riding this bike. Upon getting it the front derailleur needed to he adjusted as the chain would grind on it. The brakes are not great but you can buy brake pads pretty cheap to replace them. After about a month of riding this bike the rear derailleur hanger snapped while I was crossing a major road, and I had to walk several miles home. Tried contacting jensonusa and they will not return calls about warranty so it is at a repair shop a month after getting it getting a new rear derailleur and hanger, New spokes on the rear wheel, and new chain and big chainring as I was going 30mph when it broke and skidded to a halt as the derailleur banged up everything on back end of the bike. I feel the hanger likely got bent during shipment to me and just 150 miles of riding later snapped right off. All in all its a great bike but I wish I had received better service after dropping a small fortune on the bike only to have it go to a shop a month after getting it.

As a new road rider, this bicycle provides a good mix of components, light weight frame, and more than enough functionality/performance to grow into. The bike arrived ahead of the promised delivery date without any surprise costs and was set up in accordance to the high standards set by Jenson. Overall, an excellent experience. Will shop Jenson again for our next purchase.

Out of the box the bike was tuned and true with the bronze assembly package which was free with purchase of the bike. I had to do some minor adjustments, but that's to be expected. I'm new to road bikes but have been biking consistently for years. I've put about 100 miles on the bike so far and love everything about it except for the brakes. Not necessarily the brakes themselves but the pads that Tektro uses. I recommend an immediate upgrade. Which stinks after just spending a pretty penny on a new bike. It's also hard to find a bike with 105 components sub 1k. Which this bad boy has. It looks sharp and and shifts swiftly.

A lot of bike for the $$$. Excellent for training or entry level riders looking for a better than average rig.

I spent a lot of time deciding on my first road bike. THE GT GTR seemed like the best value for money and boy was i right. Almost everything on this bike is solid quality stuff put together on a responsive but not harsh frame.
The only real knock I have on this bike is the wheels. When spinning them up there is some percivable drag, but nothing that couldn't be upgraded down the road.

Excellent bike for this price point. Very satisified with my purchase, and Jenson's attention to detail on the build.
