Three on virginity, ideals and regrets
I know that it takes a woman up to 7 years, after having intercourse to become a virgin again. Is that true? Is it also the same for a girl between the ages of 12 and 15? If they are both true, could you please explain to me how that happens? If you could get back to me as soon as possible that would be fully appreciated.
How to get birth control privately when you're a teen & keep condoms from breaking
Me and my boyfriend want to get me birth control pills, as we've had the condom break three times on us already, and we're really fearful of pregnancy. I've already seen on this site a question on how to get birth control, but I have more questions than were answered. I'm 16, as is my boyfriend. Neither of us are able to drive yet because we didn't get our permits at the correct time (though we can take a cab to get somewhere), my mom would be highly unsupportive of the fact me and him are having sex (and even more unsupportive of me being pregnant), but we don't want to stop or anything, we just want more ways to protect ourselves against pregnancy. So, I need a way to get birth control without my mom's know. In the question I've read, you guys said that the doctor would ask for my name, address, phone number, and social security number. By giving them any of these things, would my mom be able to know I had seen the doctor? One of my main fears of getting birth control is my mom finding out somehow. Also, I don't know where my mom keeps my social security card, and I haven't memorized the number, so how can I find it out? Can I not have to tell the doctor?
Feeling pain or feeling nothing at all = my experience of sex.
I seem to not be able to feel any sort of pleasure from anything sexual. I'm 17 and have never been able to achieve an orgasm. It hurts being fingered. I've never been able to masturbate, because I could not keep focus or it started hurting. It also feels too awkward. When my boyfriend tried doing it, it hurt. He tried giving me oral sex, but that was painful. I tell him it hurts, and he tries to go as gently as he can, but it still hurts. I'm frustrated because I get no satisfaction, and my boyfriend's self esteem is damaged because he thinks it's his fault. We lost our virginities to each other a couple of months ago. It hurt a lot the first two times. After it stopped hurting, it just felt like nothing. I didn't have the heart to tell my boyfriend until recently that I don't feel anything. Now he's really upset because he feels like a pig and that he used me. He says I subconsciously don't love him, and that's why I don't feel anything.
It seems like I'm the only one with the problem of not being able to feel anything during sex AND clitoral stimulation hurts.
Where do I even get started in educating myself about sex?
I'm a 19-year-old virgin and I don't know enough about sex, period. I went to Catholic and Christian schools with terrible sex-ed classes (I learned the basic biology but virtually nothing about actual sex, condoms, safe sex, or anything like that). I looked at your list of books to read and I've browsed through the questions, but I still don't know where to start. I know a lot about gender but very little about sex. What kinds of books should this straight pro-feminist college freshman read?
What if I never want or feel ready for sex?
Okay, well here is the thing: I'm a girl and I'm so afraid to be in a relationship for too long, because I think that I'm going to have to have sex. I know that my boyfriend right now wants it, but I really don't. He says he'll wait for me, but I'm still scared. I don't think that I will ever be ready to do it, and so I'm worried. What if I am NEVER ready?!
Getting Past the Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda.
My boyfriend (20) and I (19) have been together for three years. We really do love each other and so we decided to have sex about two years into our relationship. First things were great, but a few months after we had been having sex regularly he changed his mind. He said he liked me better when I was innocent and that he hated what we did. He stopped all those cute romantic things like telling me I was pretty and writing me love notes. No matter how hard I try, I can't get him interested in me again. He used to tell me he was going to marry me and we always talked about the future and everything but now he just says he doesn't know what the future will be. Obviously, had I thought this would happen we wouldn't have had sex in the first place but since I'm stupid... we did. What do I do? To call it quits after three years is just too much for me to handle... but I can't live like this anymore. HELP!
I don't want to spend my life never being satisfied by sex and I am FREAKING OUT.
I've done my reading and I know this problem has been addressed several times... but I still do not have an answer! Until I read this site I thought I was the only girl who couldn't reach orgasm from sex (so thank you!) I now realize I am not, and understand that nothing is wrong with me, but it still sucks! I don't want to spend my life never being satisfied by sex. It is extremely frustrating for me, as well as I know it is for my partners who spend so much time and effort trying to satisfy me. I know it is hard to generalize because all women are different and enjoy different things, but aside from the common "find out what you enjoy" answer, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me anything that may be able to make a person like me orgasm from sex! I just want to be able to enjoy sex, and when you know your not going to be fully satisfied it gets boring pretty quick. I feel like I am always being teased! Yes, men can make me come from outer stimulation, but it takes a very long time, and we all no boys are impatient. So because I very rarely get to fully enjoy sex I am getting all excited just to be let down. At this point I am considering giving up intercourse all together! Please help me! I don't know what else to do!
How can I talk about sex without pressuring her?
I'm 17. I love my girlfriend. Really. Real love. Love as in "I want to marry you. I want to respect you. I want to commit my life to you." We brought up the topic of sex a few months ago, but it didn't go any farther than "How do you feel about it?" From that little talk we concluded that it was something we both wanted to do.
That was nearly three months ago and I want to talk about it. Nothing dirty or anything, I just want to know how important (or how un-important) it is to her. I want to know that she wants to have sex with me because she loves me, not because she feels she has to. The problem is...I don't know what to say or what to do to bring it up to her. I fear she might think that I'm trying to tell her that I am waiting and begging for sex, which I am not. I'll wait for her forever. Any advice?
Under Pressure!
I'm 16 years old. The blade has been calling my name for 5 years now. It scared my parents to where they placed me in a mental facility 4 years back. It was the hardest time of my life. I was in 6th grade at the time. I was scared I wanted to end it all. Now I love my life honestly I have no reason for the blade anymore. My older brother has set an amazing path for me. Not doing any drugs, does great in school, has a great girlfriend. He's a perfect guy and the best older brother...I feel like I've let him down. This isn't just a habit, it's an addiction. Just the feeling of holding my razor g
ives me the feeling that the pains almost gone. I have a problem and I feel like I need help from a professional. Like I said...That period of time was the hardest in my life and I don't want my parents to go back to thinking I'm still depressed and suicidal, which I'm not. The main reason I think I do this is because of all the pressure I feel. It builds up inside me. My dad constantly makes me feel like I can't do anything right, I'm a star athlete for my high school crosscounty, varsity girls basketball team, and track causing me to feel like I have to win. People say it's easy not to cheat on your boyfriend/girlfriend. That's true if no one wants to have sex with you. I love my boyfriend we've been together since I was 12 and its a constant battle not to cheat on him. My parents are homophobic which is sad because I'm bisexual and they don't know because the fear kills my inside to tell them. I've never had a girlfriend but I've known I was bisexual since I was in elementary school. All of this is unbearable for me to take sometimes...and I give in and let the razor bite through my skin. Is there anything I can do to help with my cutting relapse without having to make my parents go through that again?
I'm into my friend and want to fool around with her, but will she do it?
I'm 15, and I have a close female friend of the same age with D-cup bra size and very good looks all-around. She hasn't shown much visible interest in sexuality, but we haven't talked very much about it at all. I've been wanting to see if she'd want to fool around. Is that really way too much for friendship or could I somehow get her to do it willingly?
My boyfriend wants naked pictures of me: should I do it?
Me and my boyfriend have been together for 9 months. I'm 17 and he's 22. Everything is going great! We never really fight and my family likes him, too, which is rare. Only problem is he travels a lot for work, he will be gone for 2 weeks at at time. I don't mind, but he asked me to help make his trip better...he wanted me to take nude pictures of myself. I said I would but only because I do love and care about him a lot and thought it would be good for the both of us. But I HATE pictures as it is...I tried to take them for him but I HATE every picture I take and it makes me feel even more self-conscious than I do already. I would rather walk around naked for him all day then take pictures of myself. I know it sounds stupid, but it's just really hard for me. I trust him and know he wouldn't do anything with those pictures but it's hard explaining to him why I don't like pictures, he doesn't get it...should I just suck it up and take em?
I'm a girl, he's a guy, and we're dating...but I think he's gay.
I am dating this guy and I think he is gay. He had dated many girls recently but he has a 'gay' personality. He is very friendly, uses make-up and when I and my friends are around him we feel like he is a sister. My friends thinks I could do better but I am not sure if I should break up with him or not and he is emotional so I don't know how to tell him if I am going to break up with him. Is he gay? Should I break up with him?
Everything is amazing...except the sex
I have been seeing this "perfect" guy for the past month or so. We are incredibly compatible, it's unreal. Recently though we had sex, prior to doing so we had some explicit conversations and I thought everything was, well...just talking about being with him was a real turn on. Naturally I was extremely comfortable talking about sex with him because he makes me feel extremely comfortable. Anyways, we had sex a few times and for some reason I don't feel at all compatible with him in the bedroom. Is this even possible?! It just seems as if it doesn't go over smoothly at all, something ALWAYS goes wrong! Should I give up or work at it--since he is so amazing in every other category! The issue has nothing to do with his size or performance, because he is great in those areas. It's just frustrating because there is always a bump in the road, and I've never been in a situation like this.
Blaming the Wrong Butthole
I used to be able to have anal sex with my boyfriend. We're in college, we've been together for over three years and have been having anal for the entire time. I never enjoyed it at all, it always also hurt but I let him do it because he liked it. Ever since last summer, I haven't been able to allow him to do it. It just hurts so much more than it used to! I've always been really sensitive, but usually if he was gentle it would be okay. It's not anymore. Even though we use a lot of lube (we don't use condoms, I'm on birth control) it just burns from the second he puts it in. (I don't think it's the lube because it doesn't bother me otherwise.) It feels like it's sore in there, that it's ripping or tearing something.
He's really upset because he wants anal. He says he feels cheated because he used to get it and now I won't let him. He understands that it hurts, but doesn't get why it's so bad all of a sudden. I don't get it either! The only explanation I have is that I don't get to see him as often now (I'm at college so sometimes it's only once a month) so maybe it just gets all tight in there. I've noticed this with regular sex too, but to a much lesser degree and it's still okay for me. So I feel like that might not be it. I don't know if my butt is sick somehow but it's been going on for such a long time there must be something going on! What could this be? It really upsets him, and it kind of bothers me, too. I don't get why it hurts so bad all of a sudden! Is something wrong up there? What can I do?
Sex after FGC
I was just wondering...can a girl have sex if she has undergone genital mutilation? Because I know a girl who has, and she said it was a TYPE 1 circumcision and that she couldn't have sex EVER. Also, is there any way she will ever be able to reverse the mutilation? What limitations will she face, compared to a person who hasn't been mutilated? Thanks a lot for your answer!
I'm In the (Friend) Zone
I'm a male high school student and, frankly, also a cliche. I'm the basic "friend" and I really don't want to be that. I have a lot of guy friends and a lot of girl friends, but no girlfriend. This may sound stupid, but I don't want this to be a foreshadowing of the rest of my life to come. I've never really had a girlfriend, and don't get me wrong, my friends are great. Some of the girls I can imagine going out with, but I guess I fear rejection, ruining a friendship, or one leading to another. I also fear of being in the "friend zone" (I know I made a reference to "Just Friends"). It's not as much about sex or anything, just someone to have, to hold, and to love. Love. Geez, I'm 16 and already talking about love. I'm convinced that I was born the age of 26 or something like that. I have these "crushes" (I guess that's the appropriate word) that go on and off with different girls and I'm just so confused of how to approach these situations. I made it a rule for myself not to ask anyone out until I could drive myself, which, in February I'll be able to do. Did I do this to myself? Crap. Anyways, I should wrap this up before I ramble on forever. What should I do?
Whose Vagina Is It, Anyway?
I'm a 32 year old woman being driven up the wall by my fiance always telling me he can tell I'm playing with my toys when he's at work because I'm loose that day. I swear to him up and down that I haven't and even tell him the last time that I have done something like that. But he doesn't want to hear it. He always says I'm lying about it all. Why somedays is my vagina tighter than another day? Is there a position during sex that would make my vagina tighter? I already do those "pee exercises." Please HELP!!! I'm sick of being accused of something I'm not even doing.
Repelled and repulsed by all things sex...including reading this site
I have a question...so I was reading some of the questions that you answered and I noticed a strange feeling. The more I read of your site the more I am repelled by the idea of sex. I find that I start to lose trust in the people around me and question the things that they might do. I wonder just how normal they are, or if they are freaks who do sexual things with anyone or if they are gay or have some hidden agenda. The more I read about fourteen and fifteen year old girls having sex or doing sexual things the more I want to leave my house and hike out to the wilderness to live among the trees and rocks who live beyond the debilitation of civilization. I feel so alone, like I am the only one left who cares and that I am being pulled down with the rest of the world. Am I weird? Is there something unnatural or wrong with me for hating this all so much? Am I a bad person? Please be honest, I really want to know.
The age of consent... for what, exactly?
I want to know what the government considers sex. When they say age of consent what kind of sex are they talking about?
How do I approach my college about sexual assault awareness?
Beginning in September, I am going to be employed as Residence Don for an all girls floor at a university. I am pretty excited about the job and really would like to make residence life a positive experience for the students I will be living with (about 170 guys and gals in total).
However, there is one MAJOR issue I have with the residence, they offered no sexual assault awareness education for the students. In the 2008-09 school year, there were 3 sexual assaults reported, which lead to criminal charges, and almost all I have talked to who have lived in this residence for multiple years have either been sexually assaulted themselves or had a friend who was while living there.
So, clearly, something is needed to change this residence culture that seems to be conducive to sexual violence.
(More Than) a Few Words On Being 13 and 100% Ready for Sex
Im 13 and a vigin and my boyfriend is 13 and not a vigin, and we're 100% ready 2 have sex, but the problem is that hes in south carolina and im in minnsota.

Thanks Heather!!!
I like gay male porn, but gay men in real life freak me out.
I have doubts: I am a 14 year old guy, I'm from Argentina now living in Florida and I have always pictured myself with girls in romantic relationships, and I still do. But now I enjoy watching gay pornography. When I picture a two-man relationship it disgusts me, but yet I prefer gay porn. About girls, I only feel sexually attracted to some but I do only picture myself with a girlfriend in a serious relationship. Whats going on!? I need help!
I had casual sex, and my friends reacted pretty badly. Now what?
I'm a 20 year old girl, who's...well, I'm not going to say perfectly confident, because I do have some fairly major esteem issues, but I know my own mind, I'm independent & I'm not one to go with the crowd just because it's the "done" thing.
Three years ago a guy I was making out with on a regular basis, assaulted me sexually. While I escaped without being raped, it was a terrifying & traumatic experience. Needless to say it was a difficult time. I was a virgin when the assault happened, & because of this incident I was left wary of men, sex & romantic interactions in general. During the years since, a few of my good friends have expressed feelings for me, but given that I was not in the right state of mind to deal with any serious romantic situations, the fact that these guys were looking for the types of relationships that I'm not comfortable with, & also that I was afraid of ruining our friendships, I turned them down, explaining my reasons & repeatedly expressing how important their friendships were to me. All of these guys are still my close friends, & all have had relationships/flings with other girls since asking me out. I'm having a problem with them, though.
Sex With My Ex Went So Wrong: What Happened?
I'm 20. I had sex with a not-quite-boyfriend, okay, ex-boyfriend who I broke up with but still have feelings for. He decided that it would be fun to try some light bondage. It took me by surprise, but I usually do like that sort of thing. But at certain points...I felt really scared, and at others, I felt pleasure. However, the overall experience was negative, and I found myself wanting to stop--but I couldn't say no. I started to cry and he untied me. I wanted to slow down and just kiss, he wanted to finish. So I let him come on me, but I really didn't want him to. I felt really violated. Afterward he tried to cuddle with me, but I wouldn't let him. He tried talking to me a little bit about it, and said that I could have said no and that would have been better than crying--but the thing was I couldn't say no. What happened?
How do I talk about my interest in a threesome with my boyfriend?
I've read articles about men wanting to bring another partner, be it male or female, into the game. But as a woman, I'm not really sure how to bring this up with my boyfriend. It's more or less that I would like to bring someone else into our sexual relationship, for sex with both of us, but I'm not sure how to broach the topic or do this. So, I set about asking here. How should I ask? What should I even look into when considering another sexual partner?

WHEELING - Folks in the Ohio Valley like nothing more than to see a hometown boy or girl make good.
Ricky Moore grew up here. He went to high school here. He went to college here. Now, he's making differences in lives here.
Giving back, if you will.
Article Photos
As the head men's and women's cross country and track and field coach at Wheeling Jesuit University, Moore has experienced much success. Last week, his mantle got a little more crowded.
Moore was named West Virginia Conference Coach of the Year on both the men's and women's sides after both squads captured conference meets at Seton Hill University in Greensburg, Pa.
It's a feat that likely won't happen again. Wheeling Jesuit is moving to the fledgling Mountain East Conference next fall.
''It was very exciting for me and it was a special weekend,'' Moore said.
''It's very special. It was nice to be recognized by your peers. And what was really cool was (former WJU coach) Mark Swiger was there. He was the coach in 1993, the last time both teams won conference titles.''
Swiger is Moore's mentor, not only as a coach, but in life. So when Moore assumed Swiger's old job five years ago he decided to incorporate many of his former coach's philosophies.
''Athletes don't really pick up on a lot of lessons, but I think both coaches that I ran for - Mark and Trent (Huntsinger) - talked about being patient and just sticking to that plan. The team is the first thing you think of, not yourself. If you do that, your team will be successful and you'll be successful.''
Moore, who had great success at WJU and Wheeling Park, never envisioned himself as a coach. But when the position was offered to him, it was one he couldn't turn down. How could he? How many times does one get to coach at his alma mater and stay in the town he grew up in?
''Once I got in this I knew this is where I should be,'' he said. ''It's been very smooth.''
There were some struggles at first. Moore needed to build up the numbers a bit. Then there was the issue of coaching athletes who weren't much younger than he was.
The latter wasn't a problem. Respect came quickly. And, with that, came success, on the course and in the classroom.
And, as far as Moore is concerned, an athlete's success can't be defined by what's been accomplished in the athletics arena alone.
''It's more than that,'' he said. ''If you ask any kid. One of the first things we talk about when we meet individually or as a group, is how great it is being at a school like Wheeling Jesuit.
''Looking back, and this is where I relate with Mark and Trent, you really see how much of an impact coaches have. Even if you only see them once a year or every six months.
''The victories are amazing and it will bond the kids forever, but seeing them become successes after college is the best.''
Yaeger Leads Illini
Former Wheeling Park High School standout Courtney Yaeger will lead the Illinois' cross country into this morning's Big Ten Championships at Forest Akers East Golf Course in East Lansing, Mich.
Yaeger, a senior, is one of three members of the team competing today that ran is last season's meet. This will be Yaeger's third appearance in the event.
It's been a big season for the ex-Patriot. Yaeger has competed in three events this fall for the Illini and has topped the team and set personal bests every time.
At the Illinois Intercollegiate, Yaeger was second overall with a time of 5K time of17:14. That helped her earned Big Ten Conference Co-Athlete of the Week honors.
At Pre-Nationals, she set a career-best 6K time of 21 minutes, eclipsing 45 seconds off her previous best.

WASHINGTON – It's a reality that many Redskins fans didn't let themselves believe could happen. Their team is tied for first place in the division with the New York Giants.
Robert Griffin III watched as the Redskins' other rookie quarterback won again.
Rookie Kirk Cousins threw for 329 yards and two touchdowns filling in for an injured Griffin, leading Washington to its fifth straight win, 38-21 over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.
Cousins connected with Leonard Hankerson for both TDs in his first career start and the Redskins (8-6) barely missed a beat without the talented and multi-dimensional RG3, who sat out with a sprained knee.
Last week, Cousins came off the bench after Griffin got hurt and rallied the Redskins to an overtime win. Cousins was behind center from the start of this one and delivered a performance that extended Washington's longest winning streak since 2007 and moved the Redskins into a tie for first in the NFC East.
The Skins came into Sunday with significant deficits, a number of injuries, including quarterback Robert Griffin III.
Join George Wallace after the game Monday at 1 p.m. for a live chat to talk about the highs and lows of the match up in Ohio. Leave your comments and questions for George to answer if you can't make the chat when it is live.

Boy, 10, critically injured in ATV accident on Sunday
Published: Monday, September 16, 2013 at 4:51 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, September 16, 2013 at 4:51 p.m.
SUMMERFIELD — A 10-year-old boy was critically injured Sunday after he was partially ejected from an all-terrain utility vehicle driven by an 11-year-old.
Martez Hawkins was airlifted to UF Health Shands Hospital, where he remained in critical condition on Monday, according to Florida Highway Patrol reports.
The boys were driving in an open field on private property at 5198 SE County Road 42 just after 5 p.m. The 11-year-old driver of the 2012 Polaris Ranger Crew turned the vehicle sharply to the left causing the Polaris to tip on its passenger-side tires.
Martez was partially ejected. Neither boy wore a seat belt, according to FHP reports.
The 11-year-old was not injured.

I am finally migrating completely away from Thunderbird (using IMAP) to Zimbra Web Client 4.x. However, one of the annoyances I have is that the web app feels less like an app and more like a web page when the browser window it's in has the navigation bar, bookmarks toolbar, etc... I use Firefox on Linux as my client and at first I thought maybe I could launch Firefox with command line options to suppress the toolbars so that only Zimbra's application showed up (kind of like pop-up ads do from time to time). But there were no options to do that.
Here's the script I'm using for now in a file called "zimbra.html" that is stored locally on my workstation:
That led me to wonder, is there a way to formulate the Zimbra URL itself to open a new window with no toolbars? Any ideas?Code:<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" > window.open('http://zimbra.mydomain.com', 'Zimbra', config='height=768,width=1024,status=yes') </SCRIPT>

On January 3, 2010, Katie Spotz embarked on a solo ocean rowing crossing of the Atlantic Ocean, in a planned 2,473 mile westward route from Senegal to French Guiana. En route she altered course, increasing the total distance by approximately 400 miles, setting Georgetown, Guyana as the terminus for a total distance of 2,817 miles. Spotz altered course because weather conditions at her original destination were not favorable for an unassisted landing. She completed the trip on March 14, 2010 to become the youngest person to ever row solo across the Atlantic Ocean and the only American to row solo from Africa to South America. Spotz is also only the second woman to have rowed solo across the Atlantic from mainland to mainland, following the January 2007 crossing by Sophie Macé of France who rowed from Saint Louis, Senegal to Saint Laurent, French Guyana.
Katie's other Career Highlights:
Swim for Water: Became first person to swim the entire length of 325 mile Allegheny River, averaging 12-15 miles per day, and with a one day swim of 22 miles
Big Ride Across America: Cycled 3,300 miles across the United States from Seattle to D.C., averaging 85 miles a day for forty days
Desert Run: Ran 150 miles across the Mojave Desert and Colorado Desert, solo and self-supported
Half Ironman Triathlon: First in age group
Cycled over 1,000 miles of solo bike tours within the United States, with a longest single day ride of 236 miles
Oxfam Trail Run: Completed 62-mile ultra marathon in Melbourne, Australia

GreenHunter: City Using 'Stall Tactic'
Jack says Wheeling trying to prevent plant construction
July 22, 2013
WHEELING — Planning Commission members want to see proof of state and federal approval before allowing GreenHunter Water to build its natural gas frack water recycling plant in Warwood, but company......
Ok, Marcymole, where exactly were those 161 wells? Have you actually read that study you're so excited about? Or are you just regurgitating babble from the Scranton Times? Yep. Otherwise you could cite even one of those wells, give me a location and proof there was fracking fluid found in it. But you can't. As usual.
Show me the documentation, Marcymole. Otherwise you're just desperately babbling the usual Marcybabble. LOL

MOLESLAYER just doesn't seem to get it, he is just so fixated on spewing out PROPAGANDA that he can't comprehend anything else...
LISTEN UP BONEHEAD: The documented 161 contaminated water wells were from PENNSYVLANIA DEP documents. The newspaper that turned those documents up through a RTK request is based in Scranton.
Remember MOLESLAYER, you never learn anything when you are talking (or blogging).

Well then Marcy, you get right on digging into the details of that study instead of relying on the Intelligencer's sister newsrag for your STILL non-documented facts about wells that you STILL have no proof of fracking fluid contamination for, and when you find one ACTUALLY in the Ohio Valley, with actual fracking fluid in it, let us know. yawn...
In the meantime...
"including some in the tri-state area" Prove that desperate stretch of the imagination, Marcy. Because right now all you have is a very non-scientific newspaper article and the number 161 from Casey Junkins' cousin... LOL
"doesn't the Ohio River begin in Pittsburgh" Pittsburgh's a LOOOOONG way from Scranton for fracking fluid to flow, Marcy. Keep trying... LOL
And that's still REALLY all you got, Marcy? Really? You got nothin', fool. LOL

TROLLSLAYER: The news article was published by a Scranton newspaper, but the 161 contaminated water wells were from across PENNSYLVANIA, including some in the tri-state area. What, now you want to split hairs?? Shows how desperate you are to perpetuate gas industry LIES!
And as you further try to wiggle your way out from under the TRUTH, doesn't the Ohio River begin in Pittsburgh?
You will continue to look like a FOOL as long as you try to defend this EXTREME form of energy extraction.

Marcellus, first thing is that I said in the Ohio Valley, not Scranton. Pay attention, and huff-puff your way back to the good old OV and find me a fracking fluid contaminated well here, Marcy.
Second thing is an article in the Scranton Times isn't a study published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. Do you consider everything you read in this newspaper a valid scientific fact? Seriously? LOL
Third thing, "so called X-Spurt" by whom? You? I'm flattered, but considering the source, not that flattered.
Finally, you call this evidence? "the company was presumed responsible for the contamination based on the timing of the impact and the distance from the gas well" So coincidence implies causation in your "scientific study"? As you so eloquently put it, "Bwwwaahhasss!!"

A curie of radium is one gram. A picocurie is one trillionth of a curie. So one picocurie of radium is one trillionth of a gram.
The atypically high concentration of fracking fluid you cited was 11,450 picocuries/liter. The typical tanker truck carries 20,000 liters of flowback fluid. That means there are 0.0002 grams of radium in the entire contents of a worst-case fracking flowback truck.
0.0002 grams of radium in an entire truckload, worst case. A typical gnat weighs 2 milligrams, or 0.002 grams. That means the weight of radium in TEN FULL FRACKING FLUID TRUCKS equals the weight of one gnat.
So who's counting gnats, GEO? Because if you're counting, every TEN truckloads of fluid count as one gnat of radium. Just so we know how minuscule the quantity of radium is that we're talking about here...
1 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
GEO, you're the one arguing picocuries. Tell us how the weight of a picocurie of radium compares to the weight of a gnat and then tell us who's straining at gnats. LOL
And how many spills would be required for bioaccumulation to be a factor? Will Green Hunter be spilling a truckload of fluid every hour? You flow doesn't seem cohesive to me.
And since there's no safe level, remind us again how you want to use radium and uranium-contaminated fly ash in the concrete we put in schools and playgrounds. Seems like the camel got its nose under your tent. LOL
1 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Troll: There really is no safe level. Radium bio-accumulates by displacing calcium in your skeleton. And, your dilution numbers are speculative beyond rationality. The density of radium salts will render them relatively cohesive; and, they will tend to settle into more or less cohesive flows. And, how far downstream is the city water intake from the proposed frack facility? How much dilution will take place? What about spills on the ground? Will not the soil, then, and the immediate area, constitute a toxic dump? Swallow your camels, boy, it ain't gnats we're straining at.
3 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
WVUGEO, now use your WVU GEO math skills and tell us the concentration when that 11,450 picoCuries/liter is diluted in the 27 BILLION liters/hour flow rate of the mighty Ohio River. Here, I'll help. Mix an entire tanker truck of that fluid with one second of Ohio River water flow and it's radium concentration is BELOW the standard for drinking water.
And your comparison of fracking flowback with drinking water is a red herring, anyway. Nobody will be drinking it. It will be recycled and reused a mile underground, or disposed of in even deeper disposal wells. Why all the fear mongering and disinformation? Still having trouble finding a SINGLE documented example of harm from fracking at any of the THOUSANDS of OV wells fracked already? Well, keep trying...

Again recently, in the report/presentation: "Marcellus Shale-Gas Development and Water-Resource Issues", US Geologic Survey scientist John Williams, at the USGS New York Water Science Center, confirmed that Radium can be present in "Brine from a Marcellus Shale-Gas Well" in amounts as great as "11,450 picoCuries per Liter". Again, the legal limit for Radium in drinking water is 5 picoCuries per liter. Is that "miniscule", as this article states?

Herc, we are not just concerned about trucks on our streets, although they've been pretty bad. For example, see today's accident on Dallas Pike! We're concerned about the possibility of fracking wastewater being spilled in the area of the River, and the possibility of this toxic water being barged on the Ohio River. There have been 4 barge accidents between Pittsburgh and here in the last 2 years. If one of those barges was to go down in the River with millions of gallons of toxic and radioactive wastewater, it would be an environmental disaster of epic proportion. You can clean up a truck spill. You can't separate toxic water from our drinking water.

Oh yes! Hurrah! Hurrah! Stall tactics and citizens marching in protest to protect our water! We don't want trucks driving through our little town but we'll say it's because of the water that we want to make safe. The city IS using stall tactics and that's the bottom line. It's ridiculous. Grow a backbone and tell this guy yes or no and quit twiddling your thumbs. OR stop appeasing the tree huggers and tell this guy yes! What's the old saying that my grandma used to use? Ummmm...yes, "Crap or get off the pot! There's someone else that has to go next!"

Again the weasel statement: "Though radium, uranium and radon are considered radioactive". They aren't "considered radioactive", they ARE radioactive. And, a number of studies, including a recent one from the University of Pittsburgh: "Fate of Radium in Marcellus Shale Flowback Water", demonstrate that radium, which is a toxin that will, through damaged genetic material, poison future generations who don't even drink the water, can be present in frack flowback in amounts thousands of times higher than that allowed in drinking water and hundreds of times higher than that allowed in industrial effluent. Radium in frack flowback will be present in amounts far higher than this article's dismissive and casual "minuscule".

I think the main attraction is that the site has tanks already in place. He needs to get his money back from Siedler snd go across the river, everyone else does. Or to Wetzel or Marshall Counties where they are used to successfully dealing with hazardous materials. Frack water is nothing compared to TDI, Chlorine and the other things produced there. Maybe they don't have an out clause in their deal and cannot get their money back, but if they can they need to simply move their operation 10 miles one way or the other. In Ohio County if you are not going to make nerf products or are offering retail clerk jobs you are never going to find a place to operate. Its really that simple.

Designing for iOS
iOS embodies the following themes:
Deference. The UI helps people understand and interact with the content, but never competes with it.
Clarity. Text is legible at every size, icons are precise and lucid, adornments are subtle and appropriate, and a sharpened focus on functionality motivates the design.
Depth. Visual layers and realistic motion impart vitality and heighten people's delight and understanding.
Whether you're redesigning an older app or creating a new one, consider approaching the job in this way:
First, look past the UI to the app's core functionality and affirm its relevance.
Next, use the themes of iOS to inform the design of the UI and the user experience. Add details and embellishments with care and never gratuitously.
Finally, be sure to design your UI to adapt to various devices and modes so that users can enjoy your app in as many contexts as possible.
Throughout the process, be prepared to defy precedent, question assumptions, and let a focus on content and functionality motivate every design decision.
Defer to Content
Although a crisp, beautiful UI and fluid motion are highlights of the iOS experience, the user's content is at its heart.
Here are some ways to make sure that your designs elevate functionality and defer to the user's content.
Take advantage of the whole screen. Weather is a great example of this approach: The beautiful, full-screen depiction of a location's current weather instantly conveys the most important information, with room to spare for hourly data.
Reconsider visual indicators of physicality and realism. Bezels, gradients, and drop shadows sometimes lead to heavier UI elements that can overpower or compete with the content. Instead, focus on the content and let the UI play a supporting role.
Let translucent UI elements hint at the content behind them. Translucent elements—such as Control Center—provide context, help users see that more content is available, and can signal transience. In iOS, a translucent element blurs only the content directly behind it—giving the impression of looking through rice paper—it doesn't blur the rest of the screen.
Provide Clarity
Providing clarity is another way to ensure that content is paramount in your app. Here are some ways to make the most important content and functionality clear and easy to interact with.
Use plenty of negative space. Negative space makes important content and functionality more noticeable and easier to understand. Negative space can also impart a sense of calm and tranquility, and it can make an app look more focused and efficient.
Let color simplify the UI. A key color—such as yellow in Notes—highlights important state information and subtly indicates interactivity. It also gives an app a consistent visual theme. The built-in apps use a family of pure, clean system colors that look good at every tint and on both dark and light backgrounds.
Ensure legibility by using the system font. San Francisco (the iOS system font) works with Dynamic Type to automatically adjust letter spacing and line height so that text is easy to read and looks great at every size. Whether you use San Francisco or a custom font, be sure to adopt Dynamic Type so your app can respond when the user chooses a different text size.
Embrace borderless buttons. By default, all bar buttons are borderless. In content areas, a borderless button uses context, color, and a call-to-action title to indicate interactivity. And when it makes sense, a content-area button can display a thin border or tinted background that makes it distinctive.
Use Depth to Communicate
iOS often displays content in distinct layers that convey hierarchy and position, and that help users understand the relationships among onscreen objects.
On a device that supports 3D Touch, peek, pop, and quick actions give users access to important functionality without losing their context.
By using a translucent background and appearing to float above the Home screen, folders separate their content from the rest of the screen.
Reminders displays lists in layers, as shown here. When users work with one list, the other lists are collected together at the bottom of the screen.
Calendar uses enhanced transitions to give users a sense of hierarchy and depth as they move between viewing years, months, and days. In the scrolling year view shown here, users can instantly see today's date and perform other calendar tasks.
When users select a month, the year view zooms in and reveals the month view. Today's date remains highlighted and the year appears in the back button, so users know exactly where they are, where they came from, and how to get back.
A similar transition happens when users select a day: The month view appears to split apart, pushing the current week to the top of the screen and revealing the hourly view of the selected day. With each transition, Calendar reinforces the hierarchical relationship between years, months, and days.

OCALA - An Ocklawaha man was arrested Wednesday and charged with capital sexual battery.
The victim, age 9, who was interviewed by an official with Kimberly's Center for Child's Protection, said Christopher Allen Lilly sexually abused her several times at different locations.
On Wednesday, Detective Stacey Skinner interviewed Lilly at the Marion County Sheriff's Office and Lilly admitted abusing the girl.
Skinner arrested Lilly, 26, and he was taken to the Marion County Jail.
Local court records show Lilly was adjudicated guilty in May 2008 on a charge of battery.

PADEN CITY - St. John may be just 1-1, but that might make it the surprise of the season early on.
The Fighting Irish won the opener against Bridgeport before almost knocking off a good Conotton Valley team last week, a game Coach Jason Merryman feels they let get away from them.
''We had six turnovers and were penalized 14 times for 145 yards,'' he said. ''We held them to 10 yards in the first half and ended up losing the game.
''It was just two turnovers at the wrong time, with two touchdowns called back and an interception called back. Things just started to snowball.''
Still, this team seems to have a new energy under Merryman, who came over after being a Shadyside assistant.
This isn't your same old St. John team and Paden City coach Brent Croasmun knows that.
''They are much improved over last year,'' Croasmun said. ''They have a nice big running back, a speedy receiver, and I know we are going to have our hands full.
''They have some kids back and added some kids that were at Shadyside last year and that has helped them. We know we are going to have to stop their running game and that is something we haven't been able to do. Our defense really has to be a lot better than the past two weeks.''
Paden City has opened the season 0-2, dropping games to Clay-Battelle and Van.
Beginning the season with 16 kids was hard enough, making an injury almost impossible to overcome. When it comes to your quarterback like it did to sophomore Zach Heasley, that changed Croasmun's whole way of thinking.
The veteran coach wanted to sling it around more than in recent seasons, but instead has had to change his offense into running more Wildcat with Brandon Cross.
''Our offense has moved the ball at times,'' Croasmun said. ''The biggest positive has been the play of Brandon Cross. He rushed for 147 yard (against Van) and just doesn't seem to wear down.
''Plus he had a real good defensive game. He has been a real plus for us and I think he is only going to get better.''
Cross is still learning the quarterback position and still making his mistakes, including throwing into a crowd and calling the wrong play. Heasley has an injured shoulder and won't be able to get an MRI until Friday.
That might not help against an aggressive St. John defense. Its quarterback, D.J. Shoemaker has had a solid first few games. Against the Rockets, he combined for 137 yards of total offense and two touchdowns.
''We have a lot of experience on this team having eight seniors,'' Merryman said. ''From the very get-go, the motto is ' Believe.' Believe in us, believe in your teammates. We want them to expect to win. We don't want to be the same St. John team in the past.
''I know (Croasmun) is in the same situation as St. John used to be in the past with the number of kids, but that is Single-A football and he has been dealing with this a long time. I'm sure he has some tricks up his sleeve.''

We recently discovered an issue with Zimbra when receiving attachments that were sent using Thunderbird, specifically text and picture files. All other attachments appear to work fine.
The problem is that when a message is sent from Thunderbird with either of the two file types as attachments, their are appended to the end of the message in Zimbra and are no longer attachments. Thunderbird does something similar where the contents of the files are appended to the end of the message, but they are still kept as attachments.
When sending from Zimbra, all attachments remain as attachments and aren't appended to the end of the email, and Thunderbird reads the email exactly the same as when the message is sent from it.
So I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this behaviour? If so were you able to find a solution? I couldn't turn anything up with searches unfortunately, though I thought that this would have been a problem that someone ran in to by now.
While it's not the most severe of issues, it comes to be a big hassle when you're attaching files of code and such.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Village should commit more to the library
1 2 Next page >
The decision to open the Henry Waldinger Memorial Library on Sundays is a good move by the village. Valley Stream has one of the few libraries in Nassau County that is closed on Sundays, and that is unacceptable.
We have concerns, however, about the way this move will be executed, and we're not sure that simply shifting existing resources is the best answer. The addition of Sunday hours is supposed to be an enhancement of services for the small but vibrant library, but four hours during the week will be lost to make up for the added Sunday hours.
There are several reasons why those additional hours are a good idea. First and foremost, the Waldinger Library serves more than 40,000 residents of the village and the South Valley Stream library district. That's not small potatoes, and even if a fraction of those people used the library on a Sunday, that still could be a few thousand people taking advantage of this new service. Many people don't have computers at home, and rely on the library for access to technology. Making these resources available seven days a week, at least during the school year, is a win for residents.
Second, we admire the village's ambition to win back the North Valley Stream Library District, which would bring in several hundred thousand dollars a year. When the district was first formed, patrons chose to join the Waldinger Library. But it could no longer compete with the Elmont Memorial Library when that facility opened its new building in 2006, complete with a theater and meeting rooms — amenities that Valley Stream doesn't offer. It has to find other ways to appeal to library patrons in North Valley Stream.
Valley Stream has a chance to win back the contract in 2015. The library already offers a rich variety of programs despite limited space. But it needs to show that it can match Elmont's level of service, and the addition of Sunday hours is a good start.

Tajikistan is already promoting the Perso-Arabic Alphabet in Schools with the help of Iran. currently Tajikistan's Literacy rate is 99.9% and if they suddenly change the alphabet, majority will become illiterate. I am in favor of Latin which is much easier for people to learn than Perso-Arabic and cyrillic.by the way, I am Gul Agha
Dorood Nastoh jaan, That's great that you are "very interested" in promotion of Parsi in Tajikistan. I would like know more about your plans in this regards. You said that you are waiting for that moment, what moment is that? Please, comment on this portion of your saying. Thanks. Peroz bemaned, Pors.
Dorood,Now, add these two numbers that you tried to search it in cyrillic (?? and ??), which is adding 15,800+13,900=29,700. Now, it is 29,700 almost 30,000 which is half of typing it in Parsi. Isn't it interesting? Why am I telling you all this little math here, is that with learning cyrillic and little bit challenge, you can almost double your opportunity to gain more knowledge and wisdom, just only google-ing it. Obviously this is just a a little part of it. When you get a chance to learn cyrillic and when you do apply it successfully in your researches or even just a surfing on the internet, it still gives you alot of advantage. So, please, leave your comments, concerns and suggestions here. Do not leave this forum without doing nothing. At least, do something that can teach you or teach others. Thanks.Peroz bemaned,Pors.
Thanks Pors jaan,I am so interested that even sometimes I think about going to Tajikistan and become a teacher and teach kids the old Parsi. Imagin if a kid in Tjaikistan can read Porsi in both cyrillic and arabic. Do you know that more than 90 percent of all material related to Tajiks and their language, history etc is in arabic version of Porsi. For a kid in Tajikistan it would be as if he suddenly enters a totally different world but in the same time totally similar because it is all about him, his people, his language, his culture and hit history. That would be so interesting.
Very interesting research. You ignored my request for daily one-line lessons . I think people dont have time to spend hours and hours, but 5 minnutes a day is much easier. Can you afford to post 1 line a day with a few comments if needed ?
Also, dear PORS, how do you type Cyrillic characters on the keyboard ? I am totally clueless even about typing in Persian. If you send us one line lessons for a 2-3 weeks, eventually we can find other Tajiks to take over this role so you dont have to spend your time on this forever
Dorood bare degar DooDooli jaan,Regarding typing in cyrillic via keyboard, you can do it through installing Cyrillic Tajik keyboard in your Windows. But let me ask you first. What kind of Microsoft Windows do you have in your PC? Is it XP, or VISTA, or whatever kind you got there? I completely understand you that we need to bring it on. We can't wait forever. I am for it and I support you on that. I will post the starting date of our journey here in this thread, by the end of the next week. Let me know what kind of Windows you are using right now, so I will tell you how to install whether Cyrillic keyboard or Porsi keyboard in your windows. Thank you very much for your post.Peroz bemaned,Pors.
Dorood,Quick statistics here regarding this thread.Viewed: 112Replies: 23Hmm, inetesting. As far as I noticed correctly, this thread is one of the most viewed threads, and at the same time it is one of the unreplied threads, too. It means that most of the people view threads, but do not leave comments, concerns and suggestions. Peroz bemaned,Pors.
Dorood,PS: by the way, most of the replies by myself.Pors.

I have been trying to get zimbra-proxy to proxy my imap and http connections for a multi-server setup for a couple of weeks now. I was getting inconsistent results (working when accessing some mailbox servers while not others). So i have setup a simple test setup with one mailstore server and one proxy server. I wanted to get it working for one mailstore server then add one mailstore server at a time.
But i have not been able to get it working with just one mailstore server and one proxy server. HTTP proxy seems to work part of the way. I get the login prompt. I type in the username and password and it seems to accept it, but the actual webmail page never comes up.... On the IMAP side I just get a Login error from the client... I have tried and retried this over and over. Starting from a clean install of the zimbra server on both the mailstore and proxy server.
I am using the instructions on
Enabling Zimbra Proxy - Zimbra :: Wiki
I don't even know where to begin to debug the problem. any help would be appreciated.

Sick of him, yet? Gillis in now saying that they chose to keep Lou.
No surprise as it wasn't rocket science to see that might be the better option - assuming you think that Luongo is still a top tier goalie or at least as good as Schneider would be. The same logic that made it seem like the Canucks had to trade Luongo and keep Schneider meant Schneider was better trade bait. And if you think about it, the choice they had was really this: Schneider, some second tier assets like Tyler Bozak and a third round pick, and some cap space...but maybe not much if they had to eat some of Luongo's contract... versus a top 10 blue chip prospect and some cap space (Schneider's $4M less a backup goalie - currently Eddie Lack at $750K).
Plenty of stories that Gillis didn't like what he was being offered for Luongo - if he had been offered anything in the ballpark, he probably goes with Schneider, but because the assets coming back didn't help the Canucks, he didn't pull the trigger. The offers weren't great because of the contract - team has to pay twice, once in trade bait and once in cap space. But for the Canucks, the contract is less of an issue than the log-jam of two starting goalies and the need for some good, young talent. I doubt Bo Horvat plays in Vancouver this year, even though he played like a guy trying to make the NHL in the OHL playoffs and the Memorial Cup. But he could be what Vancouver has wanted for a while - a power centre behind the twins.
Gillis's story is likely revisionist, but its not the worst gamble I've seen. (Easy, shupe...)

Can Roger Federer's season get any worse? Quite possibly.
With the Beijing Olympics mere weeks away, the "official" world no. 1 was unceremoniously booted from the Rogers Masters by the streaking Gilles Simon 2-6, 7-5, 6-4 in the second round. I'd say this one has to hurt but at this point the Swiss Stylist must be feeling numb, burnt or a sprinkling of both.
And, call me crazy but I don't think his choice of on-court accessories is helping his cause either. Seriously, why is he carrying an orange + black patent leather bowling bag? I don't really understand what he could be keeping in that small "murse" besides headbands, socks and possibly concealer.
Maybe it's Mirka's method of punishment for losing. That's tough love for ya, I guess.

That bag is super fugly. It's probably full of Kleenex for his tears.ReplyDelete
That was the most pathetic performance I have seen out of him since RG. So much for being so cocky about "his" part of the year. And maybe he'll go on and win every single thing the rest of the year but, I have to doubt it.
After this loss I'm glad that I have 1st Round USOPEN tickets...ReplyDelete
>>It's probably full of Kleenex for his tears.<<ReplyDelete
Poor Roger. He won't win another slam. I am really starting to doubt he wins another tournament this year. He needs to get himself to a sports shrink.
Oh yeah, didn't care for the bag or the outfit. White is too boring for shirts.
Roger's definitely burnt out, but I think it's better to be burnt out now as opposed to later on in the season. Get thee to a spa, Roger, and don't come out until the Olympics! Maybe he'll relax a little now that there's no chance of him holding onto the year end No. 1 ranking.ReplyDelete
Oh yeah, and these patent leather bags are ridiculous, no matter what color they are.

I got the new western hunter magazine in the mail the other day. I don't subscribe to it, but have bought stuff from the outdoorsman.
This has got to be the best western hunter mag to date. But it looks like western hunter has either copied eastmans and hired people from eastmans.
Or the 2 companies teamed up.
so which is it?
Love the sheep section of eastmans. Always a favorite.

Climbing out of the cradle
Black History Month | Kay Coles James is rebuilding the home and the legacy of Robert Russa Moton
"Climbing out of the cradle" Continued...
GLOUCESTER, Va.-Those who remember Holly Knoll, a home-become-conference-center on the banks of the York River, call it the "cradle of the civil-rights movement." In mid-century many of the country's most prominent black activists and intellectuals gathered at the three-story Georgian manor, built in 1935 across the York River from Williamsburg, to strategize and plan.
Activists conceived The United Negro College Fund in the dining room in the early 1940s. Lawyers for Brown of the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education met there to discuss legal tactics. The "Greensboro Four" planned their 1960 lunch-counter sit-in on the premises. Martin Luther King Jr., legend has it, wrote part of his 1963 "I have a dream" speech under the huge oak tree out front.
But by the 1980s Holly Knoll had fallen into disrepair and obscurity. Kay Coles James remembers playing with dolls in the stylish bedrooms as a child when her well-to-do aunt brought her along on family trips. In 2006, after a 30-year career in public policy that included posts under Ronald Reagan and both presidents Bush, along with work at the Family Research Council and in the private sector, she returned to Holly Knoll on a whim. As she gazed in dismay at the weed-covered tennis court and dilapidated manor, she had a "Gone with the Wind moment": "I said, 'As God is my witness, I'm going to figure out how to fix this.'"
So James founded the Richmond-based Gloucester Institute to restore the manor and grounds (both still works in progress), and more importantly, to set up a place where, as she puts it, conservative and Christian "values and principles are welcomed at the table."
Discussion in the black community is dominated by liberal and Democratic perspectives, James said, and the Institute offers a "level playing field" for ideas, especially for the 25 or so young black college students in its annual year-long Emerging Leaders program. "In my opening statement," she said, "I tell the students, I don't care if you're liberal or conservative, Republican or Democrat, the one thing we don't do here is stupid."
To understand the Gloucester Institute you have to know the man who built Holly Knoll: Robert Russa Moton. Largely forgotten today, Moton was a nationally known black educator and author who would have supported the aims but questioned the approach of the civil-rights activists who frequented his retirement home after his death in 1940.
Moton was born to an ex-slave couple working on a plantation near Farmville, Va., in 1867, just after the Civil War. His autobiography, Finding a Way Out, relates how by firelight his mother taught her children to read in secret until the plantation owner's wife discovered them-and then had her own daughter give lessons to Moton every afternoon.
Moton graduated from the Hampton Institute, a prominent vocational school for blacks founded by a white man, Samuel C. Armstrong, in 1890. He stayed on to teach and soon rose to "Commandant," in charge of student discipline. He also befriended another prominent Hampton graduate, Booker T. Washington, who had founded the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama in 1881.
Moton traveled the country with Armstrong, raising funds for Hampton and speaking on "the coloured problem." Moton and Washington both taught that through education and a determined effort to "better" themselves, blacks could eventually earn equal treatment and prosperity in American society. Blacks and whites could live in cordial segregation, "as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress," Washington said in his 1895 speech at the Atlanta Exposition, which first brought him national attention.
By 1905 Washington was the undisputed leader of black America, but the game was changing, explains Patrick Henry College history professor Robert Spinney. Right after the Civil War some whites were prepared to accept and even help blacks recover from slavery. But in the 1890s the Populist Movement started to court the black vote, and alarmed white Southerners turned to legal segregation in a backlash.
The black community had two basic responses to Jim Crow laws, Spinney said. At first most held to Washington's original strategy, to go for economic advancement first and trust that political rights would follow. Over the next few decades a slowly growing black middle class showed that economic gains were possible, despite pervasive racism.
But many black elites, led by the Harvard-educated W.E.B. Du Bois, would later dub Washington's speech the "Atlanta Compromise." Blacks must demand political and social equality in the courts, legislatures, and streets, they argued, and anything less was unacceptable, even cowardly.
In 1915 Washington died and Moton took up his mantle as the second principal of Tuskegee. His impressive list of achievements included work with Sears and Roebuck chairman Julius Rosenwald to set up hundreds of "Rosenwald schools" for black students across the country. By all accounts Moton was a Christian of rare grace and charity, but over time segregation clearly taxed his patience even as the Du Bois strategy gained ground in the black community.
In 1922, for example, Moton addressed a crowd of 50,000 at the dedication of the Lincoln Memorial. On behalf of the black community, he concluded, "With malice toward none, with charity for all, we dedicate ourselves and our posterity, with you and yours, to finish the work which he began, to make America an example for all the world of equal justice, equal opportunity for all." Moton, who would advise five American presidents over his career, then returned to his seat in the roped-off "colored" section.
Moton's 1919 autobiography emphasized the good will of many whites, but his 1929 book, What the Negro Thinks, detailed how it feels to pay first-class fares for third-class railway seats, how much less states spent educating black children than white, how lynching terrorized and outraged black communities, and how the grinding humiliation of segregation killed ambition.
In his later years Moton abandoned the "Party of Lincoln" and became a Democrat, despite that party's ties to racism. He wasn't alone. By about 1930, according to professor Spinney, Du Bois had won; Democrats and the NAACP largely spoke for the black community.
Moton remained at Tuskegee until his retirement in 1935, when he built Holly Knoll and began inviting in prominent black activists for discussions-a tradition that eventually contributed to the courageous and confrontational tactics of civil-rights activists throughout the 1950s and 1960s.
Would the black community have been better off today had it stuck with Washington's vision? Maybe. Conservative black economist Thomas Sowell in his 1981 book, Ethnic America, showed how outsider groups that focused first on economic development (Chinese and Jews, for example) assimilated much more quickly into American society, gaining both wealth and standing, than the Irish and black communities, which tended to focus on politics.
The key, Sowell wrote, was "human capital." In America, groups can rise to affluence and acceptance when their cultures stress the values and behavior that lead to economic success. And "capital" involves not just values or economic skills, but the "whole spectrum of experience, contacts, personal and institutional savvy, confidence, and ease."
That is the sort of "capital" the Gloucester Institute offers to build into black college students. Carlyn Crawley is a 2011 graduate of the Emerging Leaders program and Hampton University. She now works for the prestigious Washington consulting firm Booz Allen.
The Institute, she said, "was instrumental in helping me transition to a more formal corporate environment." Monthly sessions cover topics including appearance, etiquette, writing skills, and "personal branding." Students sharpen critical thinking in debates over issues such as school achievement gaps, and meet with black leaders such as Condoleezza Rice, former U.S. Education Secretary Rod Paige, and Democratic Congressman Bobby Scott.
Crawley used to be "adamant" about Du Bois, she said, but the Institute helped her understand Moton's legacy: "I have a lot to live up to." It also helped her see how many of her peers give in to hopelessness or excuses. "Legally, you can make it," she said. "It's there for you to take." But young black adults need support and contact with role models. Learning how to succeed, she said, "is not intuitive for everyone."
"I really do believe that Moton was right and that the solutions to our problems [in the black community] today lie outside of government," James said. Many students come in with a strong sense of entitlement fostered by the misguided "compassion" of white society. Now, she said, "I've got to get them ready for the real world."

Very nice buck congrats thanks for sharing pics
Very nice buck congrats thanks for sharing pics
what modle is that .270 MM?
Great deer. Looks like you'll be needing some new tires for your ATV as well - those things are slick!!
The draw odds were VERY poor at best. But with Idahos system anything can happen and someone in idaho must want me to hunt deer because I have drawn the 2 times I have put in for controlled hunts (the other time was in the panhandle and I didnt get a deer but backpacked some awesome country!). elk and antelope I have had no luck drawing at all yet. Tires are the least of the ATV's problems. It has a bent frame and is chewing up the front tires pretty bad and I decided in not putting new tires till I fix the frame. My 270 is a model 70 Winchester from the 50's. Hey ivorytip, I saw a bull there that woulda sure looked nice with your super tag on him! He was a HOLY F#@! bull! you know the kind that comes into the spotting scope and the only thing that comes to mind is HOLY F#@!. !!!!! Wish I coulda got better pics of him but the elk I saw were far away. I realized how far they were when I spotted the first 2 with my binos and thought they were deer until I put the spotter on them.
Your one lucky fucker. That a great deer and antelope you shot this year. Sure beats the hell out of hunting in WA. I hunted a whole week in the Okanogon without killing a buck, so its off to the NE corner for that late whitetail hunt. Did you ever score your antelope?
