Skip to comments.Why no pix?
Posted on 03/25/2012 2:28:29 PM PDT by szweig
Why the dearth of current pictures of T. Martin?
The most recent picture of him shows him with that scowling look of a gang member.
Whereas the picture we see on the news makes him appear to be a young fresh faced innocent young teenager.
Probably why they are running the pictures of the younger more innocent looking Trayvon.
Because current pics would show him to be the thug he turned into? I read earlier today that when this encounter happened the was suspended from school for five days, why?
I've seen only one pic and that was of poor quality (it looked more like Snoop Dog!) Anybody have a good copy to post??
Have some respect - He was going for some Skittles.
Current pictures of Trayvon the thug are not allowed!
They don't fit the narrative!
They don't help Obama!
Knowledge is power, and power you shall not have!
Now turn the TV back on and watch the mind control!
Honestly it appears to this poster the reason is ... our so-called "media" is nothing more than a 24/7 carefully scripted, wall to wall, carefully coordinated propaganda operation.
Just my humble opinion.
America once represented the world's most free press.
Now, we have pretty much, "Pravda".
But stupider.
Because the powers that be took the first 20 days after the shooting to scrub, lock down and erase all evidence of the guy's existence. Then they stirred the outrage.
The most recent picture of him shows him with that scowling look of a gang member.
Got a link? Most of the gang banger one's I've seen don't even look like the younger photos. Some were lifted off of a FB profile of a kid in Georgia names Trayvon Martin. Trayvon Martin...of Savannah GA
I bet Charles Manson's baby pictures are real cute too.
No I don't have a link. Somebody posted the recent picture and the older picture on another thread discussing this case.
No one has any . They know Geraldo is right and only use the Hollister non hoodie images.
The Black community leaders us their kids as much as the Arabs do.
Arabs have their kids throw rocks at Solders, Black community leaders have their kids dress like thugs.
The purpose is to entice and hope for a violent confrontation that can be used for power.
Lol, I guess we both got the same idea.
You left out the /s tag, right?
This is a planned practice run for what's coming this summer. They are NOT going to riot in the cities but scatter to the suburbs where they think "rich whitey" lives and get them selves a house at the same time. Remember redistribution.

Bosh. Information is power. Have a hunch that's what you meant.
I'm sorry, but your link doesn't explain the pics of Trayvon with gold teeth.
I have a pic of him with his face right in the camera exposing his grill, and it is juxtaposed next to a pic of him in his football jesery, and every single feature on his face is identical aside from the gold teeth.
Chin is identical, mouth is identical, nose is identical, eyebrows are identical, ears are precisely the same.
And that is the same dude in the really thug pic, because those features are the same.
If the pics of him flashing gang signs are from some other page, then so be it, but the pics of him with gold teeth are him.
I would post that pic here for you to see, but...we all know how that goes around here.
Scientia potentia est!
yes /s - was wondering if I needed to do that...
The dude flipping the bird and one called Trayvon all Grown Up are NOT the Treyvon in question.
The mods are tired of pulling bogus pics and if another shows up on this thread, it's history.
who you kiddin'?
Are those real images of Trayvon?
Reference bump
Oh, it's no conspiracy . . . there just ARE NO PICTURES . . . that's why voter ID laws are so unfair—some segments of our downtrodden society simply cannot afford to get ids or have photos taken. [sarcasm/]
Have the images in Post 25 been vetted?
Color me pessimistic . . .
Those are not him.
There are more recent pics of him, and he looks like he does in the publicized ones, only older and bigger.
Just curious Admin Mod - Just starting to follow this story and noticed by your post that there may be 2 different young men. - Trayvon and the one you mentioned - Treyvon -
Is that where the picture confusion is coming from?
the post office probably has one.
That is cleary not a recent pick of Trayvon!
I'm not sure what "we" all know. I know that several bogus pic have been deleted.
I also wonder why folks are going to such lengths to prove...what? That he may have posed with gold teeth?
To Admins:
Sorry about stirring up a hornet's nest.
Surely someone out there has a legit photo of this guy.
Thanks for all your patience...Stevie666
He'd look mean in a hoodie, tho.
See post #8 upthread.
Spot on, imho
Perhaps some were, but the one I have of him with gold teeth is him.
Perhaps the media will clear up the confusion by showing something other than his baby pics 24/7 !
You've posted that 'Trayvon all grownup' pic three times.
That is not the Trayvon in question, from what we have seen provided by other posterrs.
What goes around here is that claims need to be substantiated for such a photo to stay up. We have not see that substantiation.
anybody brought up the fact that the guy in hiding is named "Zimmerman?"
"If I had a son hed look like Trayvon." aO bama
I've had it with this Black Angel syndrome!
Both sides in this scenario made mistakes and aggressions.
If Trayvee had had a gun and shot Zimmerman, would the Black Flash Mob have been called out?
Where is the Black Flash Mob for the Elderly OKC family brutally raped and murdered by a Black Angel?
Black people are being played like a fiddle. Don't be surprised when Uncle Bammy "requests" your presence in his private army.
That's fine if you say it isn't him, there's no way I can be 100% sure, espeially considering the total media blackout on recent pics of him.
I didn't post it any further after you deleted my initial three.
However the pic of him with gold teeth is him, and there are some strikingly similar characteristics between that one and the all grown up one, but again no way to be 100% sure.
It's also quite clear that the photo of him in the hoodie was altered, so something is amiss regarding photos of him, and I'd like to know what it is.

- Back to Normal I returned from my blogging break last Friday. Now it's back to my normal blogging schedule. While I missed the blog and all of you, it was nice to disconnect for a little while. I barely checked email or anything.
- Reading I'm in the middle of three books at the moment. I haven't done that in a while. They all happen to be suspense novels too.
- Revising I'm revising my adult suspense so it's ready for my editor in September. I really love this book, and each time I read it, I get ideas for how to make it better.
- After Loving You I'm so close to having my Ashelyn Drake NA romance After Loving You ready for formatting. This book tugs on my heartstrings every time I read it.
- National Ice Cream Day According to my planner, yesterday was National Ice Cream Day. I may have indulged in some myself. ;)

Summer is settling in and this month marks the halfway point of the submissions window for our New Voices Award, an annual writing contest for unpublished authors of color. If you're an aspiring writer working to submit a children's book manuscript, you've probably got the basic elements of your story (characters, setting, and plot) figured out already. You may even have most of the story written down. If so, kudos! But a story is more than words on a page. It's the voice behind the words that drives the narrative and keeps the reader engaged.
Unsure of how to tackle this essential yet elusive story element? Fear not!
Last month we interviewed New Voices Award winner Sylvia Liu about her path to publication. In this next blog post, New Voices Award Winner Patricia Smith and New Voices Award Honor Hayan Charara share their experiences with shaping voice while tackling the difficult themes in their award-winning titles Janna and the Kings and The Three Lucys.
- What kind of writing did you do before entering the New Voices Award and how did that experience influence your story writing?
Patricia Smith: I'd been a professional journalist, but my primary mode of writing at the time was poetry. I think I became a poet after taking on some of my father's storytelling skills. When he came up from Arkansas to Chicago during the Great Migration, he brought with him something I like to call "the tradition of the back porch." Every day ended with a story from him that opened up new worlds, stretched the boundaries of my imagination and taught me that language was so much more than what I was learning, or not learning, in school.
But I don't think my father's stories inspired Janna as much as my father himself did. I was that little girl sitting in the barbershop, fascinated at all the magic found there, but it was my father–not my grandfather–who let me tag along with him every Saturday. I was an adult when my father died–and Janna was a way to explore that sense of loss, of the world not being the same. Also, although I'm a diehard sentimental, I never really knew my grandfather. So I wanted to explore that warmth that I imagined between a grandfather and grandchild.
Hayan Charara: I published my first poem when I was nineteen, so it's been almost twenty-five years since I began writing poetry. Some of my poems tell stories, and all of them use a good deal of imagery to get across both meaning and feeling. Without storytelling and imagery, The Three Lucys simply couldn't exist.
- What inspired you to write your story as a book for children?
PS: I'm the dictionary definition of a daddy's girl, so a few things were in play. I needed to express the singular and enduring type of love I felt for him. Although he was gone by the time the book was published, I was writing it for him–he died before he could see that I'd become a writer, which is something I promised him when I was very young. And I really wanted to capture that special time in a special place, the barbershop–a place that has been so pivotal, and so nurturing, in so many black communities.
HC: I first wrote about the events that take place in The Three Lucys a few years earlier in a poem originally titled, "Lucy". I changed the poem's title to "Animals," and it appears in my new poetry book, Something Sinister. Generally speaking, I write poems, in part, to figure something out, either about myself, the people I know, or the world I live in. While I don't always find an answer, I find that I have a better sense of these things than I did beforehand.
Despite the poem, I still had questions about the war, and most of them had to do with my little brother who lived through its events. Like Luli, he was six years old when the war broke out. I hadn't yet thought very deeply about how he and other children might have experienced war and its aftermath.
I might not have tackled these questions with a children's book if not for Naomi Shihab Nye, the poet and children's book author. For years, Naomi had been urging me to write a children's book, and for almost all of that time I didn't feel ready to do so. Then, at a café in San Antonio, she handed me an announcement for the New Voices Award and said, simply, "You need to write a story for children." This time, I felt ready.
- Did the voice for your story come naturally, or did you experiment with different points of view while writing?
PS: Because I envisioned myself as Janna, and because my father's voice is so clear in my head, the writing came easily. Actually, I had held on to the New Voices call for some time, moving the notice around and around on my desk. I work best when there's an anvil swinging over my head, so I didn't begin writing until I had no choice–a day or so before the deadline. I didn't panic, because I knew the story so well.
HC: Before The Three Lucys, I had no practice writing children's stories, and it had been years since I last read one. I went into writing the story very clumsily, not really knowing what I was doing or how it would turn out. Depending on who is asked, that's either the most natural or unnatural way to write a story.
Though I wrote the story in one sitting, it took several revisions before I started to think of it as finished. All along, the voice remained relatively unchanged; the same goes for the points of view. What did change through each revision were the details and descriptions, the sort that would bring to life the experiences of the people in the story, as well as their deeper emotions.
For example, none of the early drafts brought out in a powerful and memorable way the moment that Luli realizes he will never again see one of the three Lucys. At best, the scene was nothing more than a description. I hadn't gotten at how Luli felt.
I took months to arrive at an image that expressed the kind of sadness that comes with the loss of a loved one. Luli tells us, "My heart feels as heavy as an apple falling from a tree." Sometimes, we get lucky and an image like that comes quick. Sometimes, it takes a long time, but I still feel lucky when it happens.
- Both Janna and the Kings and The Three Lucys discuss heavy themes. What challenges did you face when creating the right tone/ voice for your main character as they experience tragedy and cope with its effects? How did you overcome these challenges?
PS: It didn't feel like a challenge. I feel like I'm forever processing the loss of my father, and a lot of what I hoped the world will be without him is much like what the world turns out to be for Janna. I wanted to acknowledge his loss, but to have my life be full of him. I was writing from the perspective of a child, but the feelings were very much my own–an adult woman still suffering the loss of her best friend.
HC: The hardest part of writing this story was separating myself from it. I had all sorts of feelings, thoughts, and responses to the war itself, to war in general, and to the loss of a loved one. My mother died when I was a young man, for example, and that experience altered me forever.
I knew that I would be coming at this story with a lot of ideas and emotions already in place. On the one hand, this is a good thing because it meant that I was prepared to write the story. On the other hand, it was clear to me that I had to come at this story from a perspective very different from my own. After all, the story is about a child's experience, not an adult's, a fact I had to remind myself about often and be reminded about just as often by those who read drafts of the story.
- Finally, what advice would you give to new writers interested in tackling heavy themes in their stories for children?
PS: We constantly underestimate children. The world they live in is sporting sharper edges; and each day they adjust, their perspectives deepen, and they grow thicker skin. Children suspect these heavy stories even if we're not ready to tell them. I think the key is remembering to revel in the myriad possibilities of language, to never downplay the role of imagination, and to always, always look for an unexpected entry point into the story. I don't mean to sugarcoat–just write the story in a way you've never heard it. Your readers will be so enthralled by the way the story unfolds that its content becomes something more than just "that difficult topic."
HC: When I wrote The Three Lucys, my wife and I didn't have any children, only cats and dogs. You don't have to explain anything to a cat or dog—you can, of course, and I think it's a good thing if we talk to our animals. With cats and dogs, no matter what you say, they always listen. There's practically no pressure at all to get it right. It's really hard to screw up.
We're parents now, to a four-year-old and a five-year-old. And I've realized that I am talking to them all the time about heavy themes, mainly because they bring them up. Every so often, one of them will ask me something like, "Will you die before me?" or "Can I live with you forever?" Or, even harder to answer, "What is the universe?"
When my boys ask me these kinds of questions, I feel like every one of them is an opportunity for me to say exactly the wrong thing. Obviously, these are also opportunities for growth and knowledge (for them as much as for me). When I talk to them about anything, not just heavy stuff, I try to do so honestly and in a way that doesn't terrify or confuse them. I've also realized that, no matter how much I try to protect them, difficult and at times ugly realities will still make their way into their lives. This happens to all children, all the time. When it comes to helping children understand and get through difficulties, parents and teachers are usually the first-responders. And writers are often right there with them. We can be, at least. As a parent, I know that I often rely on writers—on children's books—to help me out, not only with the heavy stuff, but the simple stuff, too. So I hope that more writers will tackle the big issues. It'll make all our lives a little better.
Janna and the Kings by Patricia Smith is available now!
The Three Lucys by Hayan Charara will be available September 2016!

What do writers do when they receive a response from an agent that reads:
Many thanks for giving me the opportunity to read a sample of your work. I enjoyed reading what you sent, but I am afraid that after much consideration I am going to have to pass on it.
The agent gives no reason, no feedback, no opinion.
The writer takes these comments in stride and forges on with their work. If you as a writer have a thin skin or don't like rejection, don't sit down and write. Be a critic instead. Everyone is a critic but without writers there would be no critics.
As a writer you are your own critic and need constructive criticism. That's where a writers' critique group comes into play. After months of constructive criticisms and rewrites, your work gets better, more polished and then you resend it to an agent. Will they read it? Will they contact you for more?
Yes. That's just the way it works in the hard world of getting published.
If you are a writer. Don't get discouraged. Keep going. Persistence and polish will win the day.
In words.

Funny how things change - when I was a kid, summer school is not something to get excited about. But now I look forward to this opportunity to hone my writing skills by learning from some awesome kidlit authors.
This year, the focus is on heart and humor - perfect. While you're out soaking up that summer sun, hop on over to Nerdy Chicks Rule and soak up some writing knowledge, too.

It's hotter than July here in Colorado, and it's not even July yet... I'm not such a fan of heat. But I will say that summer is good for writing for me, not sure why. Maybe it's the longer days, or that the sun kicks me out of bed earlier? In any case, I'm on a roll with writing, which is nice. 2016 is my year for holing up and writing some manuscripts, so let the words stack up, please.
One of my projects has me delving into music history a little, blues history in particular. So I'm listening to all kinds of oldies to get in the mood. And I also have some new music on the playlist-- this up-and-coming band Kaleo came across my radar. I was sure they hailed from the deep south, from some town in the Alabama or Mississippi mud, because that's the sound. Turns out Kaleo is from Iceland. I kid you not. Check it out:
I like being surprised, and I like it when the universe reminds me that not everything is so predictable. I try to use that little trick in my writing, too, when I think I can get away with it.
I'm not easily surprised anymore when it comes to books. I tried to think of an example, but can't think of a single book where a plot twist blew me off my socks.
Help me out, guys: any books that threw you for a loop?

|"Mussel Shells"
Faber-Castell Polychromos Pencils
on Canson Pastel Paper
Thanks to my reluctance to start, I procrastinated like a pro. I answered email, cleaned my house, wrote more poetry; anything to avoid drawing. Finally the day came when I either had to get to work or go to my group empty-handed, aka "being a quitter." Not my favorite option. So with deep misgivings I started in with just one. Hmm. Not so bad. So I tried another. And another. And before I knew it I had drawn all four. Hey, I did it! Which made me realize:
- Repetition is valuable. One of the main things holding me back was fear of boredom: how could I draw four similar shells without losing my mind? The truth, however, was very different: first, the shells were NOT similar, and second, by repeating the process several times my technique improved as I got to the last shell. Practice, practice, practice! Whether you want to improve your drawing, write exciting action scenes or learn the intricacies of arranging a pantoum, it takes more than one attempt to get it right.
- Don't hide away in your "I can't do it" shell. Rather than setting yourself up for failure by aiming for the most incredible work in the whole of human history, start a dreaded project by drawing or writing in your most basic style: just get some shapes or words down on paper. Once that's done, tweak a little here, add a little there--before you know it your right-brain will be engaged and intrigued with all the possibilities. At this point, I dare you to stop.
- Shells make great writing and art journal prompts. The first time I wrote about a seashell in my art journal was an entry about playing with my grandmother's collection of shells from the Gulf of Mexico when I was a little girl. I loved holding those shells to my ear and "listening to the sea." You might have a similar memory, or you might want to write about your first trip to the beach, or your own collection of seaside finds. On the fiction side, including a seashell in a short story, poem, or novel could trigger all sorts of themes, associations, and plot twists--especially if the shell is rare and valuable!
- Artwork isn't always about drawing. How about brushing some ink or paint onto a shell and using it as a stamp in your art journal or mixed-media piece? Or pressing a shell into earthen or polymer clay? Drilling a hole into the top of a shell to add to a jewelry piece? Or simply painting and/or collaging the shell itself for a whole new look?
- Using shells for meditation and mindfulness. No matter how small or seemingly insignificant, there's something profound about a seashell. Whether it's the patterning, the colors, or just the fact it once housed and protected some small and distant creature, shells make a good start to pondering life's mysteries. Add them to household altars, your writing room or studio, your garden or any other kind of creative sanctuary you like to visit. Personally I like to keep them all over the house in various nooks and crannies.
Tip of the Day: One of the things I love about drawing is how it relaxes and pulls me into what I could almost call a different dimension. Memories; new ideas for writing; the book I'm currently reading: my mind seems to just float along with the tide. While I was working on my seashell piece I was reminded of one of my favorite books that I hadn't thought of for a long time: Anne Morrow Lindbergh's Gift from the Sea. If you've never read it, or haven't read it for a long time, I can't think of a better text to check out for summer inspiration. Enjoy!

- Interviews ~ Never say no to someone who wants to interview you for their blog, newspaper, podcast, etc. I recently did an interview on Super Teacher Worksheets, and it was great. This gets your name out there to readers you may not have otherwise met. (If you're interested, you can read my interview here.)
- Guest Blog ~ Again, this gets you a new set of readers if the blog you are appearing on has a different following than your own. So reach out to some blogs that you love and see if you can do a guest post for them.
- Multi-author Giveaways ~ These are fantastic because readers love giveaways. When authors join forces, they join readerships too. That's a very good thing.
- Blog Hops ~ There are some big blog hops out there. I mean BIG. Getting involved with those will get your book and your name in front of tons of people.
- Follow Other People's Followers ~ That was a mouthful! What I mean is check out authors you admire and see who they are following and who is following them. Then start following those people too. This is a great way to meet new readers. (This works for Twitter, Instagram, etc.)

- After Loving You Things are coming along quite nicely for my October 3rd release, After Loving You (an Ashelyn Drake NA contemporary romance). I love the cover so much and can't wait to share it later this summer.
- Reading I've been sneaking extra reading time lately and I'm loving it. I'm reading two books right now, a mystery and a thriller. Really enjoying both. :)
- New Planner! My old day planner ran out of pages. The horror! But I've replaced it, and I'm loving the new one. The inside is so pretty. It has pockets, color-coded sections, plenty of space for notes, and each month starts with a list of important dates for me to fill in.
- Blogging Break Coming Soon I've decided to take a blogging break. One week off, starting July 8th. Why? It's summer and we all need a break every once in a while.
- Summer injuries I was proud of myself for all the exercise I've been getting between running, walking, tennis, and swimming. But I got a terrible calf cramp on my last run and haven't been able to run since. It's a huge knot in the muscle. And…I have tendonitis in my ankle too. *Sigh* So I'm walking and swimming for now since those don't hurt too much.

- Exercise I've been running, walking, playing tennis, and swimming. I love that I'm getting so much exercise, but my bedtime has gotten out of hand. I can barely stay awake until nine because I'm exhausted!
- The Secret Sister My daughter is hard at work on her book, The Secret Sister. She's on chapter sixteen now and already has a cover! I can't wait to see the finished product.

May 2016 signified the opening of Lee & Low Book's seventeenth annual New Voices Award contest! To kick off the season, we interviewed New Voices Award winner Sylvia Liu about her writing process and how she prepared her winning story, A Morning with Grandpa, for the New Voices Award. Learn more about our New Voices Award here.
What inspired you to write A Morning with Grandpa? Did you write it specifically for New Voices, or was it something you were working on already?
I was inspired by my dad, who was doing qi gong (a mind-body practice involving moving "qi," or energy, around one's body through breathing techniques), while we were vacationing together. He taught my daughters his breathing techniques, and that inspired the story of a grandfather teaching his granddaughter both qi gong and tai chi.
I wrote the draft as part of a year-long challenge, 12×12, where the goal is to write 12 picture book drafts in 12 months. After I wrote this story, I realized it was a great fit for the New Voices contest.
What did you do to prepare your manuscript for submitting to the New Voices Award?
My critique group gave me excellent feedback that improved my story. I also got invaluable feedback from an agent as part of a critique that came with a Writer's Digest course.
While writing your story did you encounter writer's block? What did you do to overcome it?
This was one of the few stories I've written where I didn't experience writer's block. The initial story came to me very quickly, though it was different than the final form. The first draft was told mainly in dialogue, and one of my critique mates encouraged me to incorporate more lyrical language.
A Morning with Grandpa is a story about trying new things. When was a time you tried something new and how did it turn out?
About seven years ago, some friends and I took a women's surf camp. It was so much fun that we kept going back for several years. At some point, I realized that surfing was not my sport, but my friends and I still occasionally get our boards and go out into the water. Last summer, our beach had several shark sightings so I stayed out of the water for the most part.
Who were some of your favorite writers growing up? Are there any books or writers that inspire you now?
Growing up, I loved reading science fiction, fantasy, mysteries, and thrillers. My favorite series as a child was Lloyd Alexander's Book of Three series. In my teens, I inhaled the entire oeuvres of Agatha Christie, Robert Ludlum, Ray Bradbury, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Isaac Asimov, Frank Herbert, and Stephen King.
Nowadays, I'm inspired by author-illustrators who tell stories in intriguing and beautiful ways, like Shaun Tan and Gene Luen Yang.
Finally, what advice would you give new writers interested in writing children's books?
Read as much as you can, both in and outside the genre you are writing in, and read recently published books. As the head of my daughters' school recently said, good readers make good writers; great readers make great writers. And knowing what is being published today will help you gauge where you are on your writing journey.
Take the time to learn the craft of writing, connect with other authors, and have fun.
Sylvia Liu was inspired to write this story by the playful and loving relationship between her children and their Gong Gong. Before devoting herself to writing and illustrating children's books, she worked as an environmental lawyer at the US Department of Justice and the nonprofit group Oceana. She lives in Virginia Beach, Virginia, with her husband and their two daughters. This is Sylvia's debut picture book.

"Atari Teenage Riot is:
Rowdy SS, London (United Kingdom)
Nic Endo, Wichita Falls /Texas (USA)
Alec Empire, Berlin (Germany)
This week they are in Los Angeles mastering their new album. The recording is finished and they are taking advantage of the latest motion picture technology to make it as loud and powerful as any current blockbuster soundtrack.
Next they embark on a short tour to test the songs live so they can guarantee an explosive show when the album is launched early in 2014.
The first show is in London... Rowdy: Over the last two years I've played with Atari everywhere from Coachella in the Californian desert to Moscow during a Russian winter, through South America and all around South East Asia but this is the first time we've played the UK. I'm from London and this is my first chance to show my home crowd how it's done.
But Atari Teenage Riot is more than a band playing music; they are the embodiment of crowd surging excitement, a social manifesto and a warning that government is there for its own good not yours. They have influenced everyone from the core underground to some of today's top line acts while never losing their subversive legitimacy. When magazines from Wired to Dazed and Confused wanted to involve Anonymous in interviews and discussions the members of Atari Teenage Riot were brought in as intermediaries.
Atari Teenage Riot is as relevant today as they were when they started. Rolling Stone's list of the ten acts to see at Coachella last year were:
Friday: Atari Teenage Riot,Mazzy Star, Pulp, Refused
Saturday: Azealia Banks, Gary Clark Jr., Laura Marling, Martin Solveig Sunday: Le Butcherettes, Wild Flag
It Happens said of Atari Teenage Riot during the last tour: "Far too many of today's bands sound convincing enough on record but when they blast their MP3's over a PA system in a large hall you hear just how thin they really are. Atari Teenage Riot though is something else; they shake everything from your viscera to the venue walls. They are the real deal.""

When Elkton (Md.) Eastern Christian Academy stars Freddy Canteen, Brandon Watson, and Dele' Harding arrived at Michigan's football camp last summer, they did so to little fanfare. The lack of buzz was a direct result of a season that had been significantly shortened by their fledgling high school's sanctioning issues. When they hit the field in Ann Arbor, though, that changed almost instantly...

Ask the Experts: How To Maintain Frizz-Free Natural Hair
17/10/12 - Comments
Whether you're newly natural or a long-time fan of being relaxer-free, chances are you're still nervous about wearing your natural hair straight. This week, Solange, one of our favorite naturalistas, stepped out in shiny, swingable strands. We were so enthralled by her mane that we called up Alexandria Williams, co-creator of the blog Sporty Afros, to chat about ways to successfully maintain straight natural hair. Here are her top ten tips on maintaining smooth natural hair through workouts, rainstorms, humidity and beyond.

I just got new front Pontiac Torrent (front wheel drive)and a oil change. The next day the car after driving about 5 minutes warning lights reduced engine power and check engine light came on an then the car lost all power. I had to pull over and after panicking tried to start the car up and it started and was fine. The next day again it did it about 3 times but always starts up after a few seconds. Do you know what may be going on? Could it be related to the recent oil change or tires?

I'm developing a Java applet and I'd like to debug it using eclipse, while it's running in a browser.
Debugging an applet in a browser requires passing special command line parameters to the java plugin (as explained here). In the past, I specified these parameters using the Java preferences pane in my Mac's System Preferences. Since a recent software update removed this preferences pane from OSX, however, it's no longer possible to use it to pass command line arguments to the JVM. Does anyone know how I can pass start up parameters to Java, without using the preferences pane?
I tried reinstalling the Java Preferences pane, as suggested by @marctrem. The reinstalled version doesn't seem to work properly. It allows me to enter options, but they don't have any effect. Also they aren't saved; when I reopen the pane any previously entered settings are gone.

Another benefit is increased satiety (feeling of fullness or satisfaction). Casein exerts a slight pressure on the stomach walls. In effect, this pressure signals to the brain to stop eating because the stomach is full. Casein is the most slowly digested and absorbed type of protein. This helps create a "timed-release" effect, providing a steady stream of amino acids to your muscles over a long period of time. The net result is a greatly enhanced anti-catabolic environment which is much more friendly to growth and recovery.
Bodybuilders and athletes looking to build lean muscle, prevent muscle breakdown, and reduce recovery times, and individuals interested in improving the quality of their sleep can greatly benefit from casein.
Casein Research
Perhaps the most interesting kernel on casein to come from the scientific community is the Boirie study, which found that casein managed about a 31% increase in protein synthesis (to whey's 68%)... but also reduced whole-body protein degradation (catabolism) by 34%. More importantly, researchers found that casein contributed to a positive nitrogen balance an average of 7 hours after ingestion.
The Biorie study has since spurred further research of casein. Another study looked at the effect casein might have on body composition when used as part of a 12-week weight-training program. Participants were separated into two groups, each of which maintained a balanced diet including 75 grams of protein per day. The difference was in the sources of protein used: while the first group relied on whey-based drinks to reach their daily protein requirements, the second group made use of milk protein isolates (80% casein, 20% whey). At the end of the study, the milk protein isolate group had lost more fat (15.4 lbs. vs. 9.2 lbs.), gained more lean mass (9 lbs. vs. 4.4 lbs.), and gained more upper and lower body strength than the whey group.
Additional studies, though not as influential, have indicated casein may lower "bad" LDL cholesterol levels and increase "good" HDL cholesterol levels at the same time. In people whose immune systems were weakened by illness or disease, casein appears to demonstrate anti-viral and immune system-enhancing properties. Casein has even been linked to decreases in inflammatory factors in cardiovascular disease.

best casein protein out there. I also like strawberry flavor too. I wish i got the a 4 lb version because the 2 lb goes way too quick due to my consumption
01-04-2015 21:18:52
The texture is thicker than whey which is to be expected from a casein based product but it mixes flawlessly also the banana flavour is not overpowering or sickly like some other brands versions which makes it easy to use on a regular basis without getting sick of.
When i used to use this before sleep i noticed less DOMS the next day and also less hunger in the morning recovery was more improved.
10/10 great quality milk based casein product that is more versatile than whey and makes great protein dessert that is very filling and great as a pre bed snack.

17-11-2014 12:24:46
I'll end on a pleasant note: from time to time you may find that consuming a protein supplement will initiate the escape of foul and unpleasant odors from one of your body's orifices. If you ever suffer from this affliction, try taking another brand and/or form of protein.
Even if you're happy with the results of a particular brand/form of protein, it's probably best to rotate your supplements (just as its important to have a wide variety of foods in your diet) to keep your body from adjusting to one form of protein.

Being good at cracking safes would land most people a stretch inside but one group of Croydon teenagers has been rewarded for their skills with a trip to Israel.
The team of physics students from Trinity School, Shirley Park, Croydon, spent three months building a safe before taking it to the UK final of the Weizmann Safe Cracking Competition.
While they cracked safes by solving two physics riddles, the groups from other schools tried to break into their hook a duck safe.
Safes had to keep their peers stumped for at least 10 minutes but be opened by their creator in less than five minutes.
As the Trinity School team's safe was judged to be the most impregnable they will be off on an expenses-paid trip to the international final at the Weizmann Science Institute in March.

I previously worked on Zend Framework 1 the performance of it was fine.
I am about to start a new project in PHP I am planning to use Zend framework 2. But as I have seen the comparisons of ZF1, ZF2 on net. They are saying ZF2 was slow but the reviews was long time back. Recently Zend 2.0.6 was released on 2012-12-19.
Some one who used ZF2 please suggest me, can I go with ZF2 or ZF1?
I know this is like duplicate of another but i am looking for latest review.
