There is no need to get into a direct conflict with their idols. If necessary, one might protect his faith appearing like he is siding with that idol. I mean if there is a danger, if the idol is about to crush him, if it is going to cost him his life, if it will prevent him from living by his religion, one might act as if he is siding with the idols. This is also defined in the Qur'an; one wouldn't be responsible from that.
Anywhere God is in – and there is no place He is not- is like Heaven with faith. If one does not believe in God, no matter where he goes, it will be his Hell.
They have changed Islam into a pagan, polytheistic system –may God forbid- and the way God uses to bring people into line, to correct their wrong ways is through disasters and scourges, through hunger, wars and terror; God creates a devastating terror for them to change their ways, so they back down from their ways. They, in return hold on more tightly to their idols imagining that their salvation is in those idols. The truth of the matter is that such an attitude is the exact reason why they are in this state.
All of the people residing in the region hate the PKK. It is not possible for people to love or respect an aggressor group using violence.
Idols have always been hated throughout the course of history. But because they have a unifying impact, they garner a fake respect.
Mahdi(pbuh) is a calm, tranquil, gentle person. In the hadith, our Prophet (saas) says that Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be ruling from his home. He is a teacher of love. He is the one who will ensure that the whole world loves one another.
Sound comes into existence from material inside the brain that doesn't exist. There is no sound outside. But out of material, sound comes into existence, light comes into existence; inside the brain, that doesn't exist. There is nothing to be called taste outside. Taste is formed inside the brain. But this is not the brain made up of flesh; it is the brain that is comprised of radiance. We are thinking and talking with the brain made up of radiance.
The goal of the US's Great Middle East Project is to stop the system of the Mahdi; that is because the system of the Mahdi is a system that would unite all the Islamic world. The Great Middle East Project, on the other hand, is a system that would break the Islamic world to pieces.
The American deep state and the British deep state would object to a MHP-AK Party coalition. Taking all these risks, they need to form this coalition. Such a coalition would be one that would break the back of the US's Great Middle East Project.
It seems that the most rational choice is an AK Party- MHP coalition. Nothing could come out of CHP- AK Party coalition. In my opinion, the CHP would get exhausted in such a coalition and so would the AK Party. Both of them would be diminished. It won't be a rational choice.
It is important that Turkey focuses on its rocket industry. We kindly ask that from the Ministry of Defense. We should have ten thousand, one hundred thousand rockets. They should have a one thousand km range, two thousand km range, three thousand km range. As a deterrent force, we need to be like Iran.
The PKK trains all the youngsters they train to focus on their goal. They have literally withdrawn from all social aspects of life; they only stay focused on their target. This is how our Turkish youth should be. They should stay focused on our national, our spiritual targets. Otherwise, may God forbid, troubles would not cease to rain down on us.
Calling a PKK militant "Kurdish" is an insult to Kurdish people. They have lost their Kurdish identity, they have lost their humanity, they have even lost animalistic feelings and have turned into weird creatures.
I look at TRT (Turkish Radio Television) and see that they call those anarchists "Kurdish insurgents." Why don't you call them Godless, Bookless, Stalinist, communist PKK? How can you identify them with the Kurds? Would our Kurdish brothers ever act like that? Our Kurdish people are radiant, decent people. By saying so, you are smearing the name of the Kurds.
Mercy is where Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is. Compassion is where Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is. We are the most compassionate state in the Middle East. Cruelty runs rampant in the region but compassion is everywhere in our country.
Who taught violence to the groups resorting to violence in the region? The PKK: The PKK is the influential grandfather of this ideology, of this way of acting. The PKK is the one who taught everyone how to commit murder, how to kill.
Islam cannot be communicated by hanging people and chopping people up. It can only be done with preaching, by endearing people to Islam, by persuading them.
The lifespan of every antichrist is 40 years; do not forget that. When the antichrist comes, he wouldn't leave without acting as the antichrist, he wouldn't go without running out of his time.
Being afraid of an enemy, being afraid of something is a sign of lack of love for God; it is a sign of being aloof.
It is crucial not to leave aside one's love for God pertinaciously.

XNA Evangelist
We could have rested on our laurels by just announcing the new Xbox LIVE community games and XNA Creators Club Online features, but we're a driven bunch of people here, and we're passionate about gaming, so let's lob another amazing treat out there.
The XNA Community Games Platform team is delighted to offer you a sneak peek at our first major feature for XNA Game Studio 3.0: The ability to build games for the Zune platform! This will let you write one game and deploy it to all three platforms that XNA Game Studio 3.0 will support: the Xbox 360, Windows, and now the Zune. While the Zune lacks the 3D graphics horsepower to drive high-end games like you can on the Xbox 360, we've taken extreme steps in making sure that you will have the broadest access to the XNA Framework APIs possible, allowing you to create fun Zune games while still letting you integrate carefully with the overall Zune media experience. That means that XNA Game Studio 3.0 integration includes discoverability/access to the user's music – allowing the user to customize background soundtracks or create real-time visualizations at their discretion. In addition, the XNA Community Games Platform team has announced the ability to have multiple Zunes wirelessly engage in an ad-hoc gaming experience (think of the possibilities!).
Our current planning is to offer a preview release of XNA Game Studio 3.0 in the Spring 2008 timeframe, with a final release scheduled for the holiday 2008 season. We look forward to your feedback and seeing what kind of amazing games you can create for the Zune!

Zune users want to know when they will be able to build games on their Zune devices. The good news is that, in mid May, we'll be releasing a Community Technology Preview (CTP)!
I thought it has been confirmed by Microsoft that the Zune will play games by July 2008. Has it been delayed?

Introduces resolution supporting right to free speech and assembly
Occupy Wall Street demonstrators got some rare public support from a Democrat Thursday when Sen. Shirley K. Turner (D-Mercer) introduced a resolution in support of their First Amendment right to peacefully assemble and speak.
The resolution comes in the wake of forced evacuations of Occupy protest sites by police in Philadelphia, New York and Los Angeles. The Occupy movement began on Sept. 17 and Turner and its supporters see it as representative of the growing discontent with the influence of money in politics and the economic disparity that is widening the income gap between the wealthiest 1 percent and the other 99 percent of the population.
"The response by police to largely peaceful assemblies in New York City, Oakland, the University of California-Davis, Philadelphia, Trenton, and many other communities are gross suppressions of citizens' constitutional freedoms," Turner said.
The senator added she laments the excessive use of force by police and administrators in cities and university campuses.
"Peacefully expressing the grievances held by many citizens toward the concentration of wealth and power in the United States is not a crime," she said.
Turner also expressed concern for the lack of acknowledgement and response to the movement by President Obama and state and local governments.
"Although government may not agree with the message of the movement, it is nonetheless obligated to respect and protect the constitutional freedoms of the protestors," the senator said. "I am disappointed in our governments' unwillingness to have an open dialogue with its citizens and the blind eye turned toward the suppression of citizens' freedoms."
Turner's resolution recognizes that the policies that have benefited the wealthy have lead to social discord and class resentment, in addition to a shrinking of the middle class. The Democratic-controlled Legislature would become the first to acknowledge and lend its support to Occupy Wall Street if it passes the resolution.

My name is Benjamin Shoemaker, and also I purchase, fix, and turn one house a month right here in CT. Now I have much more tasks going compared to I could deal with. As a matter of fact I have a contract on a residence that I acquired for much less compared to 50 % of market value. My plan was to rehab it and also offer if for two to three times what I paid but? due to the fact that I can?t handle an additional job today I want to hand down this astonishing bargain as well as let you take this home off my hands. I merely can?t handle one more rehab now. Allow me inform you a little about it and also I assume you?ll agree that this really is a wonderful chance.
This financial investment property lies at 16 Slab Street, Glastonbury, CT on a hair less than an acre of land. Plank Street is a silent cul-de-sac road situated merely off of Hebron Avenue, as well as the property is located within the highly across the country acclaimed Hebron Avenue Institution district. Your home is a 2,450 square foot, colonial design house. This home is modern-day, upgraded in 1985, as well as features vinyl exterior siding, architectural tile roof covering, a concrete structure,? Pella? brand wood protected windows with vinyl clad exteriors, 2 covered patios one in the front and also one in the rear, a big deck for amusing in the rear, as well as an inground vinyl-lined swimming pool with swimming pool house. The inside has 9 spaces, 5 bedrooms, and also 2.5 bathrooms. The floor covering is mixture of wood, carpets, as well as ceramic floor tile in the kitchen area as well as bathrooms. The wall surfaces are sheetrock, with a number of sorts of moldings throughout the house. Your house has an oil discharged? Burnham? brand boiler and contemporary copper plumbinged system warm water baseboard heating unit with multiple zones. The electric service is 200 amps. Your house has personal well water and also septic cleanliness systems which are common to the location as public water and also sewage system are not offered.
I am offering to transfer my contract on this residential property to any person about to pay $199,900. The financial investment deal is a short sale, and also was previously authorized at $205,000 however that offer collapsed. Considering that it was so recently authorized I feel very confident that it will be promptly accepted once again. The evaluation done for that previous purchaser approximated the worth of the residential property to be $335,000. That means there is greater than $135,000 in equity in this deal.
This property requires primarily aesthetic renovations and also renovations in the cooking areas as well as bathrooms. It looks like though the resident did the majority of the completed work on the house, and it is of sub-standard high quality. My allocate the improvements on this property is $40,000 and also includes combing 2 of the upstairs bedrooms into one, as well as increasing the staying room to raise the size of those spaces. These areas are currently too little for the marketplace and price of this house. The continuing to be renovations are concentrated
on upgrading the kitchen and bathrooms, and re-installing brand-new floor covering, and brand-new paint and also trim throughout your home. This is reasonable extent of work that I am confident several initial time financiers could take care of effortlessly and end up a really terrific profit.
So given that you?re still below then I would certainly want to bet that this is simply the type of chance you?ve been trying to find. Let me tell you this, I?ve been in property for nearly a years and from exactly what I?ve viewed there isn?t that much that separates those which are successful from those that fail. This isn?t rocket science for crying out loud. Simply take an unsightly old house that someone disregarded and also make it shinny and also brand-new once more. Hey look, If those folks on those TV shows like? Turn That Residence? and also? Offer This Rapid? could do it then so could you.
I?ll even show you how to do it, detailed, if you desire me to. I?ll offer you all my design concepts, hook you up with my private loan providers, as well as send my specialists your means. I?ll also show you specifically what genuine similar homes are costing in the prompt neighborhood, drawned from the genuine A number of Listing Service, chosen by genuine companies.
As well as if that still isn?t safe and secure enough for you after that I suppose I can merely make you an investor partner in this job. After that you?ll reach see in person how I fix and turn a home, all the while making a nice return on your financial investment. It?s like getting paid to discover!
Simply head on over to my internet site and you could examine it out for yourself. You have absolutely nothing to shed, as well as every little thing to obtain if all that I have actually claimed shows to be true. Go on, do it now? that ridiculous video of that canine that woofs? I like you? will be around for some time, but this bargain won?t last.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
When I really like to waste time, I'll watch entire seasons of TV shows in one or two days while playing a simple game that allows me to keep enough attention on the tv show to follow what's going on. (Unless a show is really good, my attention doesn't allow me to focus completely on it. I have gift, curse?, for multi-tasking in that way.) Peggle is pretty much a perfect fit -- it's not complicated, it's not engrossing, but it's entertaining enough to keep me occupied for long periods of time.

9:11 I don feel bad making fun of Deron Williams because: 1. Despite the fact he incredibly good, I not a big fan and 2. Roy Hibbert just scared the living daylights out of him as he drove towards the lane, causing him to stop and settle for an awkward floater instead of challenging number 55. I think my favorite thing about the uber Roy Hibbert defense this year is trying to keep count of how many shots are missed not because he gets a hand on them, but rather how many shots he forces to be thrown up wildly just because he happens to be in the area. This leads to David West finding Lance Stephenson cutting through down low for an and one that causes Chris Denari to reach high decibels on Pacers now up 55 49.

Hello! I just would like to give an enormous thumbs up for the superb info you've here on this post. I might be coming back to your blog for extra soon.
8:06 I said this in my last post, but for me the signature play of the Pacers undefeated start to the season is the killer Paul George three that sucks the life out of the opposition, and then he slowly moves down the court with full out swag that only a 23 year old soon to be superstar could possess. With three seconds left on the shot clock off an in bounds play, George found Luis Scola cutting to the baseline. George then faked a cut pass the hoop, and instead wrapped around Scola (who placement set a pick on defender Paul Pierce) while George made his way beyond the arc. George hit the three, turned, tapped himself on the head with three fingers up, and made his way down the court slowly as the Pacers lead 82 73. If that isn cool, I not sure what is.

5:06 Nets center Andre Blatche hits a jumper to make the score 62 57, and Pacers announcer Chris Denari mentions that like in Boston, Kevin Garnett has to come out early in the first and third quarters. This reminded me of the Pacers pregame show I was listening too on 1070 The Fan when Austin Croshere mentioned that he doesn fully buy in to this Brooklyn squad to be a top seeded team. Basically Croshere believes that with the years of basketball mileage on their body, Garnett and Pierce could perhaps reach their full potential if they played once every three games. Throw in the fact that Pierce, Garnett, and Jason Terry combined for 8 23 from the field, 21 points, and nine turnovers, I now wonder how Sports Illustrated picked this squad to be the number three seed over the course of an 82 game season.

Now Coddington, the longtime creative director of Vogue, has her own star vehicle, an engaging memoir titled "Grace," co written with Michael Roberts. For anyone with a passing interest in the fashion industry, it's worth a read for the name dropping alone.As became clear in the film, which chronicled the magazine's staff as they put together the 4 pound September 2007 issue, Coddington is not the Anna Wintour or Diana Vreeland type. You won't hear her barking orders at assistants or making dramatic pronouncements about pink.But she is equally passionate, a wild haired dreamer who thinks that fashion should be transporting, provocative and even intellectual, who bemoans the dominance of celebrities and digital hocus pocus in fashion photography and who isn't afraid to take on Wintour.The book is a window into how fashion has changed from a small, niche business into a global pop culture medium. It chronicles Coddington's 50 years in the industry, first as a model, then as a fashion editor for British Vogue and finally as creative director for American Vogue, with lots of juicy anecdotes about designers, photographers, celebrities and models.She compares the fashion world then and now and offers clues into her relationship with Wintour. She's also open about her private life, including details about failed marriages, the tragic death of her sister Rosemary and her 30 year romance with French hairstylist Didier Malige. She tells colorful stories behind many of the fashion shoots she has styled, but I do wish she had offered more insight into her role in the creative process.Coddington begins by painting a picture of her upbringing as romantic as any photo shoot. For her first 18 years, her home was the Trearddur Bay Hotel on the island of Anglesey off the coast of North Wales. "Although it was bleak, I saw beauty in the bleakness." When she wasn't outdoors, she amused herself by looking at picture books, reading fairy tales and, yes, studying the pages of Vogue magazine. As a teen, she went to a convent school and has vivid memories of the nuns roller skating on the rooftop, "flapping about surreally in their robes like crows on wheels."At 18, she moved to London to attend a modeling course advertised in Vogue. The fashion world was much different in 1959. Coddington had to learn how to apply her own makeup and style her own hair, because makeup artists and hairdressers specializing in photo shoots were nonexistent. A meeting with photographer Norman Parkinson led to her first modeling job running naked through the woods for an arty fashion catalog.Coddington became an overnight success. "I was a character, rather than a pretty model, and I suppose that's exactly what I look for in the girls I now select to put in American Vogue the ones who are quirky looking."She earned the nickname "The Cod" (to Jean Shrimpton's "The Shrimp"), danced the twist on Mary Quant's catwalk and became a muse to Vidal Sassoon, who created his famous five point cut on Coddington. Her modeling career was derailed for two years by a car accident, which scarred her left eyelid. But eventually things picked up again, and she settled into life in 1960s swinging London and Paris, hanging out with a fast crowd that included Michael Caine, Jane Birkin, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.Her fashion editing career coincided with the beginning of her relationship with Michael Chow and the opening of his glamorous restaurant Mr. Chow, which attracted a starry crowd. "Naturally, we were forever being photographed at home, draped among our symbols of 'with it ness' as one of London's most happening couples; him, the cool young restaurateur, nonchalantly swinging in a hammock hung from the minstrel's gallery and me, the sophisticated style maker, perkily sitting cross legged atop a giant pop art version of a Campbell's soup can."At the height of the bohemian 1970s, she dyed her hair with henna and permed it (it would stay the same for much of the next 40 years), dressed almost exclusively in Yves Saint Laurent, had a fling with a Vietnamese photographer and spent her evenings at Club Sept in Paris. Coddington worked with the who's who of fashion. She shot Anjelica Huston with photographer David Bailey and Pat Cleveland with Helmut Newton.When Bea Miller, who had edited British Vogue for 22 years, retired, Coddington interviewed for the job but says she knew deep down she wasn't suited for it and thought that Wintour, then the creative director of American Vogue, should get it.Wintour did get it. Two days into her editorship, she invited Coddington to a screening of the racy film "Betty Blue." The two sat in dead silence through the opening sequence, a vivid five minute sex scene."Anna was rigid and unmoving. No sign of any emotion at all," Coddington writes. "I then realized how much significance Anna places on willpower trumping feelings."In 1988, when Wintour was appointed editor in chief at American Vogue, Coddington asked to join her. Coddington's narrative style fashion features and travelogues, a sampling of which appear in the book, became the heart and soul of the magazine, even as its pages became increasingly taken over by celebrities. Through her visual canvases, she interpreted the New Romantic period, grunge and the South Beach blinged out 1990s, and persuaded superstar designers Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs and others to play roles in a shoot based on "Alice in Wonderland."She sums up her creative process this way: "For me, one of the most important aspects of my work is to give people something to dream about, just as I used to dream all those years ago as a child looking at beautiful photographs."The book ends with a chapter on then and now. "Fashion has changed so much in my lifetime," Coddington writes. "Today, I find myself at the collections, asking, 'Who are all these people?' Sometimes I think I'm the last remaining person who comes to the shows for the pleasure of seeing the clothes."At 71, she seldom wears makeup and doesn't socialize much. But her attempt in the last 100 pages to distance herself from the term "fashionista" is a bit of a stretch. Clearly, Coddington has led a most charmed life.

6:00 I just going to call the Roy Hibbert stat I referenced above as Hibbert just forced one on Brook Lopez, who tried to take Hibbert base line and swing the ball up from under the hoop with his dribbling hand, but Hibbert forced Lopez to throw up a bad shot that went over the rim. I all in on the stat, Pacers lead 60 53.

11:15 I told myself I was going to pace myself to only write something every three minutes But Luis Scola just got Garnett with his patented defender goes by, dribble a once or twice and then shoot play that I absolutely fallen in love with. Frank Vogel said it best after the victory against the Bulls, when he mentioned have one of the best international players ever coming off of our bench I think Pacers fans finally 100% realized what they now have in Scola when they booed Tyler Hansbrough during his first appearance with the Toronto Raptors on Friday night.

Yankiverse Confidential: Shhhh, itŌĆÖs the time of year when Brian Cashman is silently, covertly, creating his mayhem
Originally written on IT IS HIGH, IT IS FAR, IT IS caught | Last updated 1/10/13
Last Jan.23, out of nowhere, the Yankees dropped a bomb: They dealt Jesus Montero, et al., for Michael Pineda, et al ŌĆō a trade that defined the 2012 season. Until that moment, the Yankiverse had experienced a meek and mild winter. Suddenly -- tornadoes.┬Ā ┬Ā┬Ā┬Ā ┬Ā┬Ā┬Ā I note this because, if you believe in moon phases and biorhythms, and if you study Brian CashmanŌĆÖs history, the month of January is when he boards his secret monorail to Moon Loony City, chasing some ultimate prize that his Magic 8-Ball has identified. When not granting obligatory interviews about Eduardo Nunez or Austin Romine ŌĆö moments when he says absolutely nothing, by the way ŌĆö heŌĆÖs holed-up in his psycho-pod, plotting something big - real big.┬Ā┬Ā┬Ā┬Ā ┬Ā┬Ā┬Ā Lately, speculation has centered on a possible deal for Michael Morse, an outfielder that most Yankee fans had never heard of last month. If thereŌĆÖs one thing we know about Cash, itŌĆÖs that he never works in broad daylight. He waves a shiny object ŌĆö say, Michael Morse

I'm Tired Of Apologizing For My Blackness: Model Nykhor Paul Calls Out The Fashion Industry
I don't have to tell y'all that it's hard out here for a Black girl. If you look to mainstream media, it would seem that we're all thin, light skin with loose curls or don't exist at all.
A part of our fight for freedom from oppression and equality includes inclusion and representation.
Sudanese model Nykhor Paul brought that fact back to the forefront yesterday with an Instagram post directed toward white people.
Dear white people in the fashion world! Please don't take this the wrong way but it's time you people get your shit right when it comes to our complexion! Why do I have to bring my own makeup to a professional show when all the other white girls don't have to do anything but show up wtf! Don't try to make me feel bad because I am blue black its 2015 go to Mac, Bobbi Brown, Makeup forever, Iman cosmetic, black opal, even Lancôme and Clinique carried them plus so much more. there's so much options our there for dark skin tones today. A good makeup artist would come prepare and do there research before coming to work because often time you know what to expect especially at a show! Stop apologizing it's insulting and disrespectful to me and my race it doesn't help, seriously! Make an effort at least! That goes for NYC, London, Milan, Paris and Cape Town plus everywhere else that have issues with black skin tones. Just because you only book a few of us doesn't mean you have the right to make us look ratchet. I'm tired of complaining about not getting book as a black model and I'm definitely super tired of apologizing for my blackness!!!! Fashion is art, art is never racist it should be inclusive of all not only white people, shit we started fashion in Africa and you modernize and copy it! Why can't we be part of fashion fully and equally?
We all know she makes several valid points. And hopefully, now that her story is garnering national attention, people will start making moves to address it.
How Ophelia DeVore-Mitchell Taught The World Black Is Beautiful
The fashion industry is still struggling with the concept of inclusion. Every year there are reports detailing the ways in which models of color are–and most often– are not proportionately represented in advertisements and runway shows. If it's an issue today, you can imagine what the landscape looked like back in the 1930's and '40's.
But as the modeling world was still in its infancy, Ophelia DeVore-Mitchell found a way to use modeling to send a message about our people, a positive one.
Born in August 22, 1922 in Edgefield, South Carolina, DeVore-Mitchell describes her childhood, as one of ten children, as being sheltered. She attended segregated schools as a child but eventually went to live with her aunt in New York CIty, to ensure that her education wouldn't be disturbed by her father's travel schedule. She graduated from Hunter College High School and was admitted to New York University as a math major.
During this time, people started suggesting DeVore-Mitchell take on modeling jobs. She accepted the work for publications like Ebony and other African American companies. And as the work proved to be more and more consistent, she became one of the few models of color in the United States.
In 1941, DeVore-Mitchell married Harold Carter, who worked as a firefighter while she studied fashion, public relations and advertising. The couple had five children together.
In an interview with the National Visionary Leadership Project, DeVore-Mitchell said that modeling was never her passion. But she quickly realized that it could be used for a greater purpose.
"I did a little a modeling but it wasn't what I was looking for. It wasn't my mission. It just happened to be something that I needed to do to communicate the mission that I wanted to have communicated, in a positive way. And that was the vehicle that I used to communicate a positive image of my people. Because I wanted not only me to be accepted on a top level, I wanted everybody to be accepted as human beings."
DeVore-Mitchell and some of her family members came up with the idea to open up a modeling school to train other women of color to both enter and succeed in the modeling and entertainment industry.
DeVore-Mitchell realized that in order to teach these skills she would need to be formally trained. So she enrolled in the Vogue School of Modeling in New York.
When it was almost time for DeVore-Mitchell to complete the program, a brown-skinned Black woman showed up at the school seeking to learn the ins and outs of the modeling industry as well. Her arrival caused a bit of an uproar in the school as instructors didn't know what to do with this woman, particularly since they thought they didn't admit women of color. It was then, watching their frantic reaction, that DeVore-Mitchell realized that the school didn't realize she was also Black. She had passed, unknowingly. DeVore-Mitchell, close to completion, didn't say anything and took the knowledge she and acquired to start her own modeling school for women and men of color.
In 1946, the same year that she left Vogue, DeVore-Mitchell started the Grace Del Marco modeling agency in New York. Two years later, she opened the Ophelia DeVore School of Self Development and Modeling. There, she taught more than 20,000 students etiquette, poise, posture, speech and ballet. She taught students how to carry themselves, how to look people in the eye, how to cross their legs properly and how to leave an impression walking in and out of a room.
The school's marker of success was the number of legendary stars who attended or graduated from the program, including legendary names like Diahann Carroll, Cicely Tyson, Susan Taylor, Gail Fisher and Richard Roundtree.
The agency held shows in churches, on college campuses and in the ballrooms of the Diplomat and Waldorf Astoria hotels. DeVore-Mitchell's breakthrough came when she traveled to Europe and made a name for herself in the French fashion world.
In continuation of her work, DeVore-Mitchell produced a promotional campaign for Johnson & Johnson. The project launched the career of supermodel Helen Williams. DeVore-Mitchell and her students made history as hosts of ABC's weekly television show "Spotlight on Harlem." It was the first show produced by and for African Americans.
Later, in 1959 and 1960 DeVore-Mitchell made history when two of her clients became the first Americans, of any race, to win titles at the Cannes Film Festival.
In 1968, she married Vernon Mitchell and the two remained together until he died in 1972.
Throughout her career, DeVore-Mitchell created two the of first ethnic beauty contests, developed a column in the Pittsburgh Courier Newspaper and she created a line of cosmetics specifically for women of color.
Through her involvement in virtually every facet of the beauty and entertainment industry, DeVore-Mitchell changed the entire game.
DeVore-Mitchell passed away just last year, February 28, at the age of 91-years-old. She is survived by her five children and her 9 grandchildren.
If you get a chance, you should really take a listen to her full sit down interview with the National Visionary Leadership Project. She was a phenomenal lady and an exceptionally good storyteller.
"It's Not Great": Jourdan Dunn Calls Out Designers For Having Token Black Models In Fashion Shows
From EurWeb
Jourdan Dunn has an issue with the lack of minority representation on the fashion runway, claiming some designers use one token woman of color in their shows – and get congratulated for it.
"I don't know why people applaud designers for having just one ethnic model," she told Miss Vogue. "It's not like only one type of woman loves fashion."
She continued: "I find it weird when [model] agents say, You're the only black girl booked for the show. Isn't it great? Why is it great? It's not great."

Sean John Exec Alain Lafontant Discusses The Ongoing Diversity Problem In Fashion
Fifteen years ago, Alain Lafontant was an intern at BRAG (the Black Retail Action Group). On Thursday, he was accepting the organization's BRAG Special Recognition Award in front of 600 guests alongside other awards recipients, Macy's CEO and president Terry Lundgren, and Iman, supermodel and CEO of Iman Cosmetics, Skincare and Fragrances.
BRAG is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing African Americans and other people of color into the retail and fashion industry fold. This year, they hosted the 43rd Annual Scholarship and Awards Gala, which was hosted by style expert Lloyd Benson and featured a special performance from Nick Cannon, who just recently launched a line of ties at Macy's. In addition to the awards, the organization handed out 67 scholarships, more than double the previous year. The event raised more than $1 million, including $35,000 at a live auction during the event.
Since the days when Lafontant was working on his BRAG project focusing on the changes in retail on Harlem's iconic 125th Street (today there's a MAC, an H&M, a Starbucks, and an American Apparel steps from one another), things have changed in stores. But diversity continues to be an issue. Each year it seems, diversity gets attention around Fashion Week, when people notice how few models of color are walking the catwalk.
"Fashion Week always brings diversity to the forefront because it's an easy visual to see the lack of diversity," Lafontant told MN Business during a phone call. But for him, it's not just about racial diversity, but a "diversity of background" that's missing. And, just as important, is the lack of diversity at the upper ranks where decisions are made is an issue.
"This sea of sameness doesn't promote evolving changes," Lafontant added. "I'm interested in the diversity on the business end."
To that end, it's worth noting that Lafontant is the VP of business development and brand manager at Sean John, Diddy's successful fashion line. This is his second time with the company. In between, he was the VP of men's sales at Rocawear.
"In my career, whether it's Shawn Carter or Sean Combs, they saw a void in the market and they filled it themselves," he said. This is a model that other aspirants in the fashion industry should follow. "You don't have to wait for the company to come and hire you. The industry is fueled by big dreamers."
It also benefits from both diversity of culture and diversity of ideas. While the Ralph Laurens and Armanis of the industry continue to garner name recognition, there are others coming up behind them like Alexander Wang, who Lafontant noted for his "innovation in product."
"Creativity is one portion of it," Lafontant said.
One of this year's BRAG scholarship recipients, quoted in information we received from the organization, may have listed the other components best: "Because of BRAG scholarships, we are given the character, confidence and education we need to succeed. To us, these scholarships not only represent funding for school, but it affirms our dreams, our hard work as students and our individual ambitions."

Diversity Is Always In Style: Bethann Hardison Takes Fashion Industry To Task Over Racism
Fashion Week is currently underway and there is no better time to chime in on the gross negligence displayed by major fashion designers when it comes to the under usage of black models.
Former model and the woman who launched the careers of Naomi Campbell, Tyson and Iman, Bethann Hardison, has been known to voice her opinion when it comes to the unfair treatment models of color consistently receive, and considering her exposure and endearing fortitude, she has managed to garner the right amount of attention whenever she sounds the alarm bells.
Hardison is appalled at the fact that major designers like Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, BCBG, Alexander McQueen, Chanel, Prada, Versace, Celine, Louis Vuitton, are all practicing racial bias by not bequeathing black models the same opportunity seamlessly afforded to their white counterparts.
She was compelled to mention the culprits in order to emphasize the severity of the issue and of course to ensure that there is a level of recognized accountability.
She expressed her game plan to the Huffington Post; "This way there's no hiding, if you say [who], then nobody can say. "This has nothing to do with me". I am trying to educate those with a careless attitude or who just don't care. But you have to care. This is a responsibility to many".
It is hard to believe that in 2013, things have not improved much since Hardison was a young up and coming model in the 70's but Alas! This is the brutal reality and it certainly has to be addressed head on without any purposeful restrictions.
Hardison isn't all talk without action; she has unrestrictedly immersed herself in spearheading efforts to help encourage diversity in an industry that seems reluctant to the idea of embracing the symbiotic idea of diversity. She has implemented interactive strategies including town hall meetings in an effort to facilitate prolific dialogue, and this led to a breakthrough in 2008 when Vogue Italia produced their much-heralded "Black Issue."
As honorable as that milestone seemed to be, even Hardison acknowledged that it wasn't exactly what she was aiming for. Black models need to feel included in the process, not given their own separate platform.
So the self-inducted activist has decided to embark on a voluntary mission with the companionship of The Diversity Coalition to help highlight a dilemma that remarkably still persists despite the ongoing homogenization process taking effect globally. The itinerary includes four letters sent to the principals attached to the organization responsible for the fashion frenzy that seasonally grips the world; the recipients are the Council of Fashion Designers of America (New York), Federation Francaise de la Couture (Paris), British Fashion Council (London), and Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana (Milan).
Here is an example of one of the letter:
Eyes are on an industry that season after season watches design houses consistently use one or no models of color. No matter the intention, the result is racism. Not accepting another based on the color of their skin is clearly beyond 'aesthetic' when it is consistent with the designer's brand. Whether it's the decision of the designer, stylist or casting director, that decision to use basically all white models, reveals a trait that is unbecoming to modern society. It can no longer be accepted, nor confused by the use of the Asian model.As expected, the response has been mixed and somewhat calculated which further intensifies the fact that this is a problem that will linger on for years to come.
Old habits die hard, and it's very clear that Hardison with all her best intentions, is fighting an uphill battle and her passion is understandable since she has been feted by the very industry she is now is now bringing to task.
The truth is that until people of color position themselves in areas that allow them the ability to be valued decision makers and elite forecasters, the fate of models of color will always be foggy at best.

British Model Jourdan Dunn Recalls Encountering Racist Makeup Artist Who Refused To Work With Her
It seems that week after week, we learn more about the despicable horrors faced by Black models working in the fashion industry. Last week, Victoria's Secret Angel, Chanel Iman revealed that she had been turned away by racist casting directors and designers who had no problem telling her, 'We already found one Black girl. We don't need you anymore,' or 'We don't want you because we already have one of your kind.' Now, British supermodel Jourdan Dunn is doing the same.
During her career, Dunn has graced the covers of Vogue Italia and Teen Vogue, in addition to being featured in campaigns for Yves Saint Laurent, Burberry and Tommy Hilfiger. Despite these major accolades, during a recent interview with Net-A-Porter, the 22-year-old Jamaican bombshell revealed that she too has been pricked by the fashion industry's racist, venomous stinger. She told the magazine that there were instances where she was literally on her way to a call and had to turn around because the person in charge of casting "didn't want any more Black girls." As if that isn't discouraging enough, Dunn recounted a situation where in the middle of a photo shoot, a makeup artist hired for the shoot openly stated that she refused to work on Dunn's face because Dunn was Black and she [the makeup artist] was White.
The beauty went on to express that situations such as the aforementioned used to upset her, but the encouragement and the determination instilled in her by her mother hasn't allowed her to quit.
"I grew up wanting to be my mom. She always seemed to make things work without ever complaining. She whips me into shape," the model expressed.
Though we often come across stories of racism and discrimination such as Jourdan's, the frequency never seems to lessen the sting.
What are your thoughts on Jourdan's revelation?
'The Face' Contestant Says She Doesn't Consider Herself A Black Model Because She's Fair-Skinned
The lack of diversity in the fashion industry seems to be a never-ending conversation, as it appears that Black models are always being slapped in the face by casting directors and designers who make it obvious that they have a specific "Black girl quota," which they refuse to exceed. Earlier this week, model Chanel Iman told The Sunday Times that she was no stranger to racism in the fashion world.
"A few times I got excused by designers who told me, 'We already found one Black girl. We don't need you anymore.' I felt very discouraged. When someone tells you, 'We don't want you because we already have one of your kind,' it's really sad," she regretfully revealed.
It appears that instances such as this one have caused young, up and coming models of color to want to disassociate themselves with their ethnicity, just so that they have more of a competitive edge in the industry. It was rather heartbreaking to watch Devyn, a contestant on Naomi Campbell's modeling competition, The Face, reveal that she doesn't consider herself a "Black girl model," during an interview with Wendy Williams, which was seemingly a part of one of the competitive tasks given to contestants by the show's panelists. The first red flag that appeared during Devyn's interview was when Wendy asked her what advantage she believed that she had over her competitor Ebony, who just so happened to have darker skin.
" I feel like I have an international look and I have a story that can relate to everyone," Devyn replied.
While her response seemed a bit suspect and a tad slighting, the way she answered the next question was mind-boggling and sent Naomi Campbell off the edge. When Wendy asked "Is it hard to be a Black girl model?", Devyn responded:
" I don't really consider myself a Black girl model. I know what my ethnicity is, but I'm fair-skinned and I feel like I have an international look."
The moment those words left Devyn's mouth, Naomi Campbell could be heard in the background, going off.
"What the f**k does she mean? That's a disgrace. She's a Black girl," Naomi said to the other judges.
Since the airing of her highly criticized comment, Devyn took to her Twitter page to apologize to offended fans and suggest that the producers over at Oxygen edited her response.
Is "international look" the new code word for fair enough to pass the brown paper bag test?
Turn the page for footage of the interview. What are your thoughts on this? Was Devyn's response misinterpreted?
This Is What Happens When Fashion Frenemies Cross Paths On The Wrong Day
You know people in the fashion industry stay trying to one up each other. See what happens when these two style frenemies cross paths at the wrong place and at the wrong time.
Blackface In 2013? White Model Poses In Editorial Spread Titled, "African Queen"
If you thought the days of Blackface were over, you are sadly mistaken. International fashion magazine, Numéro recently printed a two-page editorial entitled, "African Queen", in which 16-year-old Caucasian model, Ondria Hardrin is depicted wearing heavy bronzer, as if the publication was attempting to pass her off as Black and many are wondering why? Why didn't Numéro just hire a Black model?
Jezebel revealed that the same agency that represents Hardrin also represents several Black models. It's unfortunate when Black models aren't even considered for jobs that common sense would make most assume are for them.
"why hire a black model when you could just paint a white one!" blog Foudre said of the ridiculous spread.'
Now we won't play ignorant, we know that there are White people living in Africa as well, but according to the Huffington Post, Ondria is from North Carolina and judging by the heavy amount of bronzer that she is wearing in the spread, it seems quite clear that the glossy was attempting to have her to appear "darker" than what she actually is.
I suppose this only serves as a reflection of the scarce number of Black models who are employed by the fashion industry. Jezebel recently reported that this past New York Fashion Week, 82.7% of the participating models were White, while only 6% were Black.
No one can say whether or not Numéro meant any harm by the model that they selected for the spread, but it appears to be the message that it sends to Black models and the world in general that people are finding to be offensive.

Your Donated Clothes May Be Killing Africa's Fashion Industry
You know those clothes you plan to give away to the Salvation Army/Goodwill in the holiday spirit of cleaning out your closet? The charity probably won't be able to sell them to anyone in the States. Mostly because it is already inundated with the literally tons of secondhand clothing donations that come in every day, not to mention the spike it takes in over the Thanksgiving, Hanukah, Christmas, and New Year period. Textile recyclers will take the bulk of your donation off the charity's hands, then sell it to rag merchants who go on to sell it to African entrepreneurs. These African businessmen and women then retail the used clothes to a ready market.
In Ghana, these secondhand retail points are known as "bend down boutiques" in reference to the fact that buyers have to stoop to browse the bins of clothes for sale, spread out on the ground. Ghanaians call the clothes in the bins "obroni we wu" or "white man's deads" and in Togo, they are also nicknamed "dead yovo" or "dead white person" for their assumed former white owners. But in Kenya and Tanzania, they are known for their sheer volume—"mitumba" or "bales"—a good indication of their impact.
Between 1989 and 2007, the U.S. exported nearly 7 billion pounds of used clothes to over 100 countries. These clothes are Tanzania's number one import from the States. With recyclers netting an approximate $2 per pound for wearable clothing, and even the dregs fetching in the neighborhood of 25 cents per pound, the global trade in secondhand duds is a multi-billion dollar industry.
According to the U.S. International Trade Commission, America exported over $605 million worth of used clothes in 2011 alone. The market is so lucrative, SavannahNow.com reports, some charities and for-profit clothing recyclers are engaging in a donated clothing war, with the latter looking to cut charities out as drop-off middlemen.
This booming market disproportionately favors the American and European players—and in many ways, undermines the ability for an Africa-based fashion industry to grow. With most Africans living on less than $3,000 a year, designers, seamstresses, tailors, and retailers based on the continent are competing with the low prices of used clothes. Add the fact that imported secondhand threads enable African fashion-philes to rock the global styles they see touted on countless blogs and in international fashion magazines, and the competition becomes steeper.
Though more and more fashion weeks are sprouting across Africa with Vogue Italia and Mercedes Benz sponsoring high-profile events in Ghana and South Africa respectively within the last few weeks, the lack of a widespread buying infrastructure where retailers buy and distribute designers' wares make it difficult for more than a handful of African fashion industry stakeholders to thrive.
So what's the solution? Should you donate those clothes to Goodwill after all?
New York-based journalist Abi Ishola visited Ghana and Nigeria to report on the issue. In her opinion, African governments need to subsidize the homegrown fashion industry, from designers to retailers to exporters. "China…has come in and they're counterfeiting a lot of the wax print and… selling them at cheaper prices," she observed, explaining they can do this because the Chinese government subsidizes their fashion and exports. "So it's easier for the Chinese to, you know, not charge as much as the designers in Ghana or in Nigeria."
Elizabeth Cline, author of Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, says part the solution lies in promoting the craft—and value—of fashions specific to different regions. "What we're seeing even in the United States is, 'Oh wait, yes we are able to walk into a store and buy a $5 dress,' but," Cline continues, "we lost all of these incredible craftspeople, and people with so much knowledge and skill." Cline adds, "In America where we've gotten to the point where that history has almost virtually been erased and now we're trying to reconnect with it, hopefully, in other countries it won't go that far before someone says, 'Wait, this heritage needs to be preserved. This knowledge is important.'"
Aisha Obuobi, founder of the wildly popular Ghana-based fashion label Christie Brown, would agree with Cline. "Although our clothing has a modern/contemporary feel, the whole idea is to infuse African elements in each piece… this is something that can't be found in "secondhand" clothing." She says designers and all stakeholders in a successful African fashion industry need to understand that the African market is not the American or European market, and treat it accordingly. "It is important to observe and understand the African consumer's buying behavior and retail needs and tailor our products, services and merchandising efforts."
With so many Africans earning wages below the poverty level, the main consumer need is affordable price. Obuobi says, "Being able to mass produce is really what will drive down the cost / retail prices of the clothing. Once that takes off, I am certain that will birth retail outlets that can easily support lower income consumer needs."
To that end, Nora Bannerman, CEO of Ghana-based Sleek Garments, has opened a factory in Accra with the capacity to mass produce garments at competitive prices. This needs to happen en masse across Africa with the support of government and private sector investment.
In the meantime, Ishola says go ahead and give that old coat to Goodwill. Even with all the challenges, your donated clothing has potential to benefit the African economy. Textile recyclers say the secondhand clothing trade has created over five million jobs in Kenya alone. In Nigeria, where the government has banned the import and retail of secondhand clothing in a move to protect their homegrown fashion industry, the trade thrives on the black market, also creating jobs. One used clothing trader told Al-Jazeera, "If you close [the] Nigerian border today, within two, three weeks, the Republic will be shaken." He said the countries that supply the secondhand traders with the illegal clothes would feel the pinch too. "The revenue they get from Nigerians who import these goods in this country goes a long way."

Analysis || Hezbollah doesn't want war with Israel if Syria is weakened
It seems that Hezbollah, which has still not responded to the attack, is not interested in opening a front against Israel out of fear of a massive Israeli retaliation, without getting Syrian aid.

While Lebanon insists that Israeli planes may have overflown the country on Wednesday four times, they still ardently deny that an attack took place in its territory. And the Syrian media took a long time to relate the event at all. In the evening, Syrian television finally reported that Israeli...

Yesterday I added a few more, finishing touches to my Shorai, battery relocation.
I temporarily added a piece of Romex wire to serve as a battery "strap." I will figure out a more elegant solution later.
I also added a small piece of "Shorai foam" to protect the bottom of the battery from the air box mount on the frame. In addition, I plan to trim/file this metal tab so it will not nick the battery box.
I also plan to add a 5mm sheet of "Shorai foam" to the top of the air box. This foam will reduce abrasion, absorb shock, and further secure the Shorai battery to the top of the air box.

A LaRue County inmate enjoyed about eight hours of freedom last week after escaping from the detention center in a car owned by the jail.
George Richard Gaunt III, 21, of Ludlow in northern Kentucky was serving a three-year sentence at the facility on charges of third-degree burglary, theft by unlawful taking and receiving stolen property.
According to Chief Deputy Travis Strader, Gaunt attended a religious service at the jail about 7 p.m. Feb. 9 and left through a back door sometime later.
A woman who admitted taking money intended for a sick child was sentenced to 10 days in county jail Wednesday.
Theresa Ann Cox, 43, of Louisville was charged Feb. 16 with two counts of theft by unlawful taking by Hodgenville City Police. Court records indicate she entered two IGA Express stores, picked up several items and placed them in a bag from the store. Each time, she presented the items to the clerk and requested a refund, according to Lt. Steve Johnson. The items included cell phone accessories and snacks.
Nick Rupa, 44, of Nashville, Tenn., was arraigned Jan. 13 on a charge of operating on a suspended license in LaRue District Court.
The former boxer, who went 10 rounds with the Light Middleweight Champion of the World, was recognized by District Judge C. Derek Reed. Rupa, who is originally from Trinidad, told the judge he had lost to Terry Norris (career record of 47-9-0 with 31 knockouts) in 1997 for the middleweight championship.
Reed set a new court date and bond at $500 on condition of no driving.
Children who lived in terror were spared the trauma of testifying in court because a plea agreement approved Friday promises to put their mother behind bars for 10 years.
Myra Rodriguez, 31, admitted guilt to 16 felony and 30 misdemeanor charges regarding what court documents called "torture and cruel punishment" inflicted upon four children – the youngest who was only 3 at the time.
A judge ordered the removal of religious signs near the Upton exit of Interstate 65 but an appeal is planned.
In what Senior Judge Geoffrey P. Morris called an "extremely interesting case," the state Transportation Cabinet claimed the postings are in violation of billboard advertising statutes. Jimmy Harston of Allen County, who said he erected the signs at the request of two property owners, said the messages are not ads but expressions covered by Constitutional protections of free speech and religious expressions.
Winter weather may have delayed the February school board meeting, but it was definitely heated up by the presentation of the 21st century learning initiative Laptops of LaRue.
Thursday, the LaRue County High School Media Center was packed to standing room only with students, teachers, parents and community members who wished to share their support or concerns with the initiative.
Whether working to support an international relief effort in Haiti or responding to the need of local fire victims, the American Red Cross' Hardin-LaRue Chapter depends on the benevolence of private contributions.
Although chartered by federal legislation in 1917, the Red Cross receives no recurring government appropriation, Sharon Thompson, director of the local chapter, told the LaRue County Chamber of Commerce's February luncheon.
There has been another delay in the trial of a former LaRue County deputy jailer facing 11 counts of felony theft in Indiana.
Jennie McGee, 46, of Falls of Rough was arrested on fugitive charges by Kentucky State Police at her workplace Feb. 8, 2009.
She pleaded not guilty to the charges and was to be tried by jury Oct. 12, according to Perry County, Ind., court documents.
McGee's attorney withdrew from the case in October and a new one took over her defense.
