Shut Up Fool Awards- Moni's At BTAC 2017 Edition
And I'm enjoying every minute of it seeing my BTAC fam from around the country and increasingly, the world.
Had to step into my room for a minute and handle my Shut Up Fool business, so this is going to be a quick one in which I just announce the winner.
This week's SUF winners are a group award for the Texas Southern University Board of Regents and TSU's president .
The HBCU based in Houston extended a head scratching invitation to speak at their upcoming May 13 convocation to Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) which is not sitting well with students and faculty on campus.
Our senior US senator is a man that is hostile to our community policy wise, has an 'F' score on the NAACP Congressional Report Card, and claimed in 2015 that racial tensions are 'phony narratives'.
And you wonder why TSU's 2017 don't want him desecrating their campus.
TSU board of regents, shut up fools!

I Find Out If I Make Houston Pride Parade History In A Few Hours
This was planned before I agreed to run for Houston Pride Parade female Grand Marshal. What I didn't anticipate was all the subsequent political mess of this current 85th Texas Legislative session causing me to spend more time where I was needed in Austin.
Tonight at Pearl Bar is the 2017 Houston Pride Kickoff Party that starts at 7:30 PM, and the pride Grand marshals will be announced during it.
I'm poised to make a little Houston Pride parade history if they call my name for female Grand Marshal. I would be only the third African American woman after the Rev. Carolyn Mobley (1993) and Fran Watson (2016), the third trans feminine one after Phyllis Frye (2006) and Jenifer Rene Pool (2012) and the first Black trans feminine one ever.
If they call Lou Weaver's name as the male grand marshal, he would not only become the first ever trans masculine grand marshal, we would make history together as the first out pair of trans grand marshals serving together at a pride parade in the same parade year.
If it happens, yay moi and yay Lou and y'all have some drinks for me.
TransGriot Update: Lou made Houston Pride parade history, but I didn't

Learning, Networking and Having Fun At BTAC 2017
It is my fave conference, and increasingly we have people attending from different parts of the world. Our brother Neish is back from Jamaica, Dora is repping Brazil, and Neo is repping The Congo.
One of the other things that takes place during BTAC 2017 that is important is all the networking and information sharing that happens in conversations large and small.
We have two more days of panels, with today's panels being focused on health and wellness issues
The other thing that is also important when we gather at BTAC is seeing old friends, meeting new ones from around the country and the world, and just getting to know people on a personal level you may have only regular connections with previously via Facebook or other social media.
My BTAC siblings, like myself are taking time to have some fun. It's not all serious business. BTAC is at a basic level, a big family reunion and one of the few Afrocentric trans themed conferences in the US.
It's a time where I get to laugh and get loved on by my trans fam that looks like me and shares my ethnic background.
When you have a bunch of Black trans women gathered at a conference, it's gonna be a fashion show. Mama Moni is damned sure ready and able to handle her fashion business in that department with several days of clothes and three pairs of shoes in her two suitcases.
I'm also enjoying the fact that in addition the record attendance we are having this year, we have a large contingent of trans women to go along with our trans brothers. We also have a lot of first time BTAC attendees this year, and it makes me pleased and proud to see this happening.
You can keep up with the BTAC happenings at the #BTAC2017 hashtag. We also have people doing Facebook Live events and I'm tweeting at my TransGriot Twitter handle when I'm not taking part in an event..

Texas GOP
Why you hatin' on trans me?
Wasting valuable legislative time
Trying the pass an unjust HB 2899
Is it because you wanna be?
Oppressors like your grandpappy?
Because you want to dictate to me
The bathroom that I get to poop and pee?
What up with that Texas GOP?
Wanting to secure a primary election victory
By attacking my humanity
That don't sit too well with me
The Texas Trans community
Just wants the opportunity
To be fabulous and free
And that sentiment is expressed unanimously
So I'll fight you incessantly
To kill this legislative insanity
Until you back up off my community
And let us be
So to Austin I'll zoom
And sit for hours in a hearing room
So it's way past time
To kill HB 2899

Historic Dewey's Lunch Counter Sit In Site Permanently Closing
52 years ago today a successful sit in a protest jumped off by African-American gender variant teens who were told they would be refused service if they were not in gender appropriate attire happened here.
This happened a year before Compton's Cafeteria in San Francisco and four years before Stonewall. The Deweys protest was also another instance of a trans themed protest happening in the US and one that we know of with significant African-American involvement.
Since 1978 a 24 hour eatery has been open in the former Dewey's space called Little Pete's. I'd eaten there with a strange sense of deja vu not long after I arrived in Philly and got settled into my #LGBTMedia14 hotel room. I spotted it while gazing out the window of my room, was still hungry from my travel day, and just decided to check it out and grab something to eat there since it was close.
I was told a few hours later at the opening LGBT Media mixer event by a Philadelphia attendee who knows my love of history that we were across the street from the old Dewey's, and subsequently told all the trans journalists we were right across the street from a trans historical site.
Well peeps, if you wish to replicate that photo, better do it soon because the sad news I'm hearing is that Little Pete's will be permanently closing next month, Its last day of business will be May 29, and after that it has a date with a wrecking ball to make room for a Hyatt Centric hotel.
It's always sad to me when a historic site closes, Here's hoping that someone in the Philly LGBT community will work to have a historical marker placed at that spot where Black trans history was made once the new hotel is completed.

BTAC 2017- Day 1 Schedule
So looking forward to Day 1 of the 2017 edition of BTAC. The theme for this year's conference is Loving Ourselves Through Ultimate Service (LOTUS). That's important in a time in which we have a hostile federal government and many of us live in states that are hostile to trans people as well.
On the agenda at 1 PM CDT is the BTAC Conference Welcome and Orientation along with the first two sessions of BTAC 2017.
We have always had cis women in our BTAC family who are either dating or married to trans men This year we'll have a conference programming track set up to support them.
These women have also been invaluable in terms of breaking down to their trans feminine sisters what it's like and what the societal and community expectations are for being a Black woman as a person who has had to deal with those issues from birth.
Those conversations are vital to us building sisterhood not only in the BTAC and BTA ranks, but over time in the Black community as a whole.

Moni's In The Middle Of BTAC 2017!
This Megabus trip up left Houston 18 minutes late, and we got here to my stop at the DART Downtown Transit Center 20 minutes late.
But I forgot that quickly as Rachel Gonzales scooped me up and we killed some time before i headed to the host hotel..
There's a 7 Eleven around the corner in walking distance from the hotel, and they will be seeing me frequently destroying Slurpees this week. Only four away from another free one.
I will be taking the time to write and tweet about what's happening here, and as a reminder, you can check out the #BTAC2017 hashtag on Twitter and Facebook to see what everyone's up to.
On that note, time to check the hotel lobby again and see who has arrived.

BTAC 2017 Bound!
The Black Trans Advocacy Conference is not only my favorite conference, it's a unique one in the trans conference ranks. For five days, it's one that unapologetically centers Black trans people and the issues that impact our community while serving as a family reunion style gathering.
We also get to inform, educate and network with each other while building that extended family with life changing results. Once you attend BTAC once, you'll never be the same person again.
It's even therapeutic in some ways. I came up during the 2014 BTAC a day after enduring a 14 hour marathon HERO committee hearing in which I heard far too much dehumanizing anti-trans language from the opposition. By the time I'd gone through the remaining days of BTAC enveloped in the love of my community, I was refreshed and ready to go back to Houston to take the HERO haters on
The planning committee enjoys putting it together, and they are shooting for another record attendance year for BTAC. You can also follow the action on social media at the #BTAC2017 hashtag.

What will be weighing on our all our minds is Chay Reed, the young trans sister we just lost this weekend in Miami. Here's hoping they catch the waste of DNA who killed her.
During this BTAC week that starts today, we'll have the blessing of getting together to make another year of memories, laugh, cry, learn from each other, hug old friends, meet new ones, thank our allies and sponsors for their support and just gather together as a extended family once again.
In addition to the BTIPS pageant, the TransManifest Live open mic talent show, the awards gala, the State of the Black Trans Community Town hall and Saturday's Family Fun Day, it's going to be another informative and fun week.
Yeah, I spent much of the last few days since I returned from Austin catching up on my sleep since I know I have a few long nights ahead of me. That's before I factor in all the folks in the DFW area who want to see and chat with me while I'm here. .

This BTAC 2017 week that we've all in the BTA family impatiently waited for since the close of last year's conference will sadly be complete when we reach Sunday, April 30.
And it's still not too late for you to join us. See y'all in a few hours.

We Don't Need Alt-Facts In Black Trans World
Note to that person, trans men are men.
That interview justifiably pissed off my trans brothers, and to TS Madison's credit, she wants to clean up the media mess she helped create and have a trans man on her channel who actually knows something about and can expertly talk about being a Black man of trans experience.
When you put something out there on your social media platforms, especially as a Black trans person, it needs to be accurate and on point.because you don't get to make mistakes. Neither should you be putting alt-facts out there either.
Not everyone is qualified to talk about trans issues, especially if you aren't living our trans lives. There are also some folks in Black Trans and SGL World who need basic Trans 101 'ejumacation' themselves.
We already have the burden in Black Trans World of overcoming the myth with cis Black people fed by right wing kneegrow sellout preachers cooning it up for white fundie pastors that being trans is a 'white thang'. There's also that myth in LGBTQ World that Black people are 'more homophobic' that needs to die as well.
We Black trans peeps are far too often invisible to the media except when they want to cover another Black trans woman being murdered, and still screw it up.
That media invisibility is even more pronounced for Black trans men, who get little to no coverage about the issues of importance to them Neither do Black trans kids or their supportive parents.
That also includes our blogs and video platforms. It takes a long time to build them up as credible sources, and it only takes one of two egregiously bad mistakes to ruin the years of hard work put in to get them to that point.
We also must remember that some of the peeps we need to educate on what ails the Black trans community are in our own cis Black community. We must also be cognizant of the fact that with this ongoing national Republican push to pass unjust anti-trans laws, some of the legislators who will be voting YES or NO on those unjust bills share our ethnic heritage and are being lobbied by those misguided sellout pastors spouting facts free lies about us.
So facts about our Black trans lives matter. Accurate telling of our Black trans stories matter. Factually accurate discussions about our Black trans lives is mandatory, especially when you have a camera or a microphone in your face.
It's why we don't need nor should we tolerate any alt-facts about Black trans people in our Black trans community.

It Is Not Godly To Oppress Trans People
He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both [are] abomination to the LORD. Proverbs 17:15
It is a centuries old tactic for conservatives to try to use the Bible as a shield in their attempts to other and demonize people, and now they are attempting to do so against transgender people.
The Southern Baptist denomination made it the official policy of their church in 2014 to hate trans people, following the Roman Catholic Church in doing so.
One of the basic commandments of our faith is to love thy neighbor as you love yourself. It's obvious these faux faith based so called 'christians' hate themselves since they are so busy spending their time and hate orgs money bearing false witness against transgender people.
And the most odious part of their transphobic hate rants is that they are aiming them at transgender kids and their parents
I have a major problem with that. My pissivity about it is heightened even further when you try to claim that God is on your side when you spout your loud and wrong facts free anti trans comments
Hate is not a Texas value, much less a value in our Christian faith tradition. Love is.
It is not godly to oppress trans people, and if you pseudo faith bathed oppressors keep pushing that bald faced lie, you will reap what you sow, and the trans folks you are trying to oppress will be standing tall as your efforts to oppress them continue to fail.

BTWI Statement Concerning The Death Of Chayvis 'Chay' Reed
April 22, 2017
Contact: Monica Roberts BTWI Media Chair
Carmarion Anderson BTWI Founding National Director
855-255-8636 Ext 11
Black Transwomen, Inc is saddened and angered to hear about the loss of another precious life to anti-trans violence in the person of 28 year old Chayvis Darice 'Chay' Reed of Miami. FL.
We at Black Transwomen, Inc express our deepest condolences to Ms. Reed's family and all the people in her all too brief life who loved her.
According to a witness a group of people were walking up a sidewalk in the West Little River neighborhood near the intersections of Northwest 27th and Northwest 93rd Streets when one of them ran across Northwest 27th Street at approximately 5 AM EDT. Six or seven shots subsequently rang out according to the witness and that person fell to the ground.
The shooter fled the scene and is being sought by Miami-Dade police. The incident was captured by the home surveillance cameras of the witness, and the video is being reviewed by Miami-Dade police detectives.
We at BTWI are also upset and angered to note that once again, a deceased Black trans woman has been misgendered and disrespected in the local media.
Reed is the ninth trans woman of color murdered in the US in 2017, and the eight African-American trans person killed this year. Out of those eight Black trans women we have lost this year, seven of them are under age 40.
If you have any information that will bring Chay's killer to justice, you are urged to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305- 471-TIPS (8477)
Rest in power and peace, Chay. Know that all who love you will not rest until justice is served in this case.

Hercules & Love Affair Continues to Tease Miami, DJ Set at the Vagabond February 6
Hercules & Love Affair, Andy Butler (center).
We'd love to say we've witnessed the band's grandeur live, but unfortunately Miami's only gotten a taste of Butler's skills behind the decks. First at the Vagabond and soon after at last year's Ultra Music Festival. What sort of irks us is that Butler spins under the name Hercules & Love Affair, which always gets our hopes up that this will be the time we finally get to see the group as a whole live.
But we guess it just isn't meant to be. Butler returns alone to Miami for a DJ set February 6 at Vagabond's Back Door Bamby party.
While we cry for a bit, check out the video for Hercules' single "Blind" and try to imagine what could have been.

Charlestown schools after 1825
Charlestown schools after 1825 (Continued.)
[17] November 1 and to continue through the season. The number of pupils without the Neck in October was 199; in the whole town, 1,144. Of bills approved at this time, Charlotte Wayne; received $84; Eliza Wayne, $88; Cornelius Walker, $200; Sarah Perry, $63; Jane Hobbs, $16; Eliza Ann Cutter, $60; Samuel Bigelow, $150; and (in February) Samuel Barrett, $150. Seven primary schools went into effect May 16, 1825. They were located according to the recommendation of last year. For the first time we are permitted to give the names of the primary teachers of Charlestown, for up to this date, except for a brief period about 1813, these schools were of a private character, and the mistresses depended upon their patrons for reimbursement. They were: Mrs. Polly Jaquith, Mrs. Mary Thompson, Mrs. Hannah Rea, Mrs. Mary Walker, Miss Lucy Wyman (succeeded by Miss Rebecca French), Miss Adeline Hyde, and Miss Roxanna Jones. The whole number in these schools was 445; present at the examinations, 385. 'The trustees are free to declare their belief that the benefit of these institutions will fully meet the most sanguine anticipations of their friends. The children are put upon a regular course of instruction, alike in all these schools, and are kept in good order. The trustees are confident that a school of fifty children of ordinary capacity, from four to seven, who shall give their general attendance, will be far better prepared to enter the higher schools than the same number have heretofore been when promiscuously admitted from private schools.' The estimated expense for the coming year is $6,000. Signed by Chester Adams, for the Secretary.

These two straight men have worked together a few times and last time Casey fucked Ricky's hole and kept protecting his own cherry. It has taken a long time to get him to give it up and today he does it in style. He doesnt just let Ricky fuck him, he allows Ricky to assault his cherry and assault it again! Casey gets a dam good fucking and he seems to enjoy and hate the pleasure and pain and getting a cock up his ass that is almost a hint too big! Rickys cock is big, long and thick and he enjoys pounding it in and out, in and out and in and out of Casey! The only right response is a bit of cum; though Casey delivers cum, cum, cum and lots more cum! Well done lads, this is why we love straight men!

Straight lad Ellis steps it up today; he lets Zack strip him and play with his uncut cock and then he returns the favours and strips Zack and plays with his uncut cock. Zack is then soon on his knees gobbling down on Elliss now rock hard cock and looking at his face he is sort of confused between the shock of his first man blow job and it feeling pretty good! Not content with getting his first man blow job Ellis gets down on his knees and sucks Zack. Great job by both lads who are soon lying back, Ellis jerking off Zack to a happy end and then Ellis deals with his own uncut cock and jerks it til he shoots a nice mess of cum on his own abs.

Leo is a great looking lad, although young he's got a body of a proper man, he's got a solid upper body, good tan, and he's hairy - fuzz all over his chest, and abs, along with a strong physique make him look a powerful stud of a guy. He's confident too - he works as a builder and so is physical in his job, and obviously has no problem getting muscular. He whisks his clothes off in no time, showing his nice uncut cock, before getting hard and wanking it for us, filming a bit on my phone too, before sticking his ass in the air and displaying his hairy hole for us, cock still rock solid. He brings himself too orgasm laying on his back, shooting a thick load into the hair on his abs.

Bonus video of the photo shoot: Sam has been on one of these straight young men on a fast journey; a boxer by trade looks so innocent when you see him alone, yet a little encouragement and you see him with Jack and he has become quite the experimentalist! Jack wanks Sam and ends up on his knees gobbling on Sam, giving him his first man blow-job. Jack does his usual great job and Sam gets so carried away he is soon wanking his first man and looking to really enjoy it. Both lads are rock hard through the shoot, do a great job at lending each other a hand and showing off their slightly hairy holes before they both lie back and unload almost simultaneously.

It has been quite some time in the making this shoot, I have been trying to convince Caspar for about a year that a nice relaxing massage is a great idea and at last he gave in and let his good friend Jon give him a massage. Jon is a qualified sports masseur and gives Caspar a great body massage, so much so that Caspar has really relaxed. The two lads were not looking forward to hand and cock contact, but Caspar did a great job at letting Jon get on with it and what a great job he did, not only a sports masseur, but clearly a great wanker! All ends in a nice mess on Caspers abs! Well done boys I hope you may see each other again?!

Bonus video of the photo shoot - Just in case those of us in cold places, like England right now, have forgotten what it feels like to be warmed in the sun, then look no further than this shoot where gay lad Jon, with a massive 9 inch uncut and extra thick cock gives it to straight lad Chris; though it must be said when you see him slide up and down this huge rocket you might be forgiven for thinking he isnt looking very straight today! The two lads have a lot of fun and Jon is pretty cocky so he spends quite a bit of time teasing the straight lad about getting fucked and seeming to love it! As usual Chris shoot a real massive load of cum, a cock up his bum, especially a big one and this always happens. Jon pulls his cock out and kisses Chris and seconds later he dumps a pretty impressive load of cum. Not a bad ride for Chris, anyone that can ride and take all of Jon is quite something!

Kerala CM Oommen Chandy Reacts To Invitation Controversy
A big political controversy has erupted between Kerala government and the Center over exclusion of Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy from a Prime Minister Narendra Modi's event tomorrow.
In a series of tweet Chandy said that he considered the opportunity to participate in the statue unveiling an honour but felt extremely sad when he was told not to attend the function.
"I considered the opportunity to participate in the statue unveiling function of Shri #RShankar as an honour. I felt extremely sad when I was told not to attend the function by the organisers who invited me to the event," tweeted the Chief Minister
He further tweeted saying that it is not a personal insult but Kerala was insulted when its Chief Minister was denied the right to participate in an event which the Prime Minister is attending.
"The statue unveiling is not a #BJP function, it is the 1st public event of #PM in #Kerala, denying #CM from attending is protocol," said another tweet
However, Home Minister Rajnath Singh has dismissed the charge as "baseless" and said the decision to withdraw the invite to Chandy for the event in Kerala tomorrow was taken by SNDP, a social organisation which is hosting it, due to its "internal row" and the government had nothing to do with it.
Even a furious Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi targeted the Prime Minister and said that he has "insulted" the people of the state.

Rodgers still getting questions about Favre
But the fact that he was forced to follow in the footsteps of Packers great Brett Favre has been the source of some contention during Rodgers' rise to elite status in this league, especially since it was widely reported that Favre didn't help Rodgers along in any way when the two of them were in Green Bay together, plus the "mentor" kept the "protégé" constantly twisting in the wind with his annual threats to retire.
Nevertheless, on conference call Thursday with the Bears media at Halas Hall, one obviously-oblivious reporter had the nerve to ask the following question six minutes and 28 seconds into what turned out to be a suddently-shortened eight-minute and 14-second interview: "How much did having a player like Brett Favre as a mentor help make you the player you are today?
After a long pause – probably because he was shaking his head in total disgust and thinking to himself, You have got to be @#$&ing kidding me – Rodgers eventually responded, "Say again?"
With Rodgers no doubt hoping the question would simply go away so he didn't have to answer it in politically-correct fashion for the millionth time, the reporter piped up yet again: "How much did having someone like Brett Favre as a mentor help turn you into the player you are today?"
"Well," Rodgers begun, following another lengthy dose of dead air, "I think it was good to be able to watch someone who played at a very high level for a number of years, and just look for ways to pick up things in the offense and the footwork and stuff like that every day, and trying to incorporate them into my own game."
For the record, Favre has now retired at least three times from three different teams since Rodgers was elevated to No. 1 in Green Bay, and he has already done twice what no Bears passer has ever done dating back to 1920 (throw for 4,000 yards in a single season), yet the shadow cast by Favre – as well as the stupidity of the average member of the media – seems to know no bounds.
McCarthy knows Bulaga will see Peppers
He couldn't draw a tougher assignment, as Chicago lists five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro Julius Peppers as its starter at right defensive end.
Packers coach Mike McCarthy believes Peppers to be an elite pass rusher in the NFL, so he gives the Midway Monsters a presence up front that they haven't had in quite some time.
"Julius Peppers is a premier defensive player," said McCarthy, "and I think he's a very good fit for their scheme. They're doing a good job of moving him to the left and the right side, or open and closed side, however you view it. But I think he definitely gives them another Pro Bowl-type player on that defense."
While Peppers has indeed done a bit of flip-flopping back and forth between right and left end, common sense suggests the Bears will keep their prized free-agent addition on the right side in Week 3, as that way he'll be matched up with Bulaga more often than not.
"He plays over there a lot already," McCarthy said, "so it would not surprise me if they left Julius on Brian. I would not be surprised by that."
Chicago is starting to learn that Peppers is much more than a sack artist, as the Bears are currently No. 1 in the league defending the run, surrendering just 28.0 yards per game – he's helping free up linebackers Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs to make tackles without having to shed blockers first.

Paris prosecutors have charged the uncle of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad with corruption, an anti-graft group said Tuesday.
Rifaat al-Assad, 78, who was Syria's vice president in the 1980s, was placed under investigation in April for amassing a 90-million-euro ($100-million) fortune, including a stud farm and luxury apartments, despite being kicked out of Syria "with nothing" 30 years ago.
Sherpa, a Paris-based group that defends victims of corruption, told AFP Assad was charged on June 9.

"The Trump and Ryan repeal plan would have hurt millions and the concept was indeed a most unjust and inhumane health care proposal. It was thirty-nine pages of one cut after another that was good only for those who are already well off and was very harmful to working and low-income people. It would have created havoc in healthcare. Living with the Affordable Care Act for the "forseeable future" is a good thing for most Americans." SLeeMD

Worse, although it has been clear for years how the decision would affect low-income people in both our states, the legislators and governors have refused to even prepare for the changing situation they have set in motion. The safety net of clinics and the emergency rooms (especially those hospitals that were subsidized through the Disproportionate Share Hospital payments to provide care for the uninsured) are certain to be stretched thinner and people in our States will suffer due to this colossal governmental feat of willful inaction." - Sharon Lee, MD

The ad campaign for Sony Micro Vault is absolutely one of my favorites of late: Funny, creative, smart, and visually pleasing. Most importantly, unlike most ads these days, it showcases the product and its features. The creative force at Promoseven advertising agency in Dubai came up with this smart play on the 'Store The Impossible' tag line for the tiny 2GB card, with the idea of a tiny animal eating (storing) an impossibly huge one; such as a squid eating a whale or a tiny mouse eating an elephant. Another creative touch is the grin you see on the small animal's face, as if storing something x1000 its size is no biggie. Simple, fun and effective.

"The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires." ~William Arthur Ward
Though this was an "accidental artwork", becoming something quite different than originally intended, I must say as it progressed I was inspired to go with what was developing, thinking back to the many "mentors" in my life.
It has been in the realm of nature and the magical folklore it presents that my Mentors have made themselves known to me, inspiring me throughout the journey. One never knows the mentors they may encounter!

State agriculture agency leaving Topeka for Manhattan
The Kansas Department of Agriculture announced Thursday that it is moving to Manhattan in summer 2014.
The plan is to house the agency in a new 50,000-square-foot facility built by the Kansas State University Foundation in the group's research park.
Agriculture Secretary Dale Rodman said the decision was made to move so the agency could work closer with other agricultural and bioscience entities, including the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility. "Manhattan is the value-added center for agriculture," Rodman said.
KDA will maintain its main administrative offices in Topeka, but will move the majority of its programs to Manhattan. In addition, the department will maintain current field offices in Stafford, Stockton, Parsons and Garden City.
sciencegeek 4 years ago
You're assuming that everyone who is working there now will be asked to move to Manhattan. That's not guaranteed. It'd be cheaper to dump the people there now in favor of new hires; it isn't like this crowd has any respect for state employees. Although there could be a few more houses available due to foreclosure.
BTW, great display of empathy there, Toe. Although I can think of another body part that you resemble more closely.
Thinking_Out_Loud 4 years ago
sciencegeek, Toe doesn't do empathy. For anyone. From what I have seen in his posts, I suspect that he has a reduced capacity for empathetic response, compared to the general population. I don't even believe that he can empathize particularly effectively with those he is closest to, such as family members. Expecting him to be empathetic to the plights of others will only make you angry and him frustrated. Accept him for who he is, and for the capacities he DOES have, and both you and he will get along better.

Do you even know anything about NBAF? It's as safe... correction more safe... than any other research facility in the state. All the negative pressure zones and the 6000 Hepa filters filtering every bit of air in and out of the place make the air cleaner when it leaves than when it enters. It's got back up generators for it's back up generators that back up the back up substation Westar has provided. It's incredibly safe.

Topic: Shrubs
Title: Need help identifying shrub with large thorns in Tennessee.
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
QUESTION:A shrub?with very large thorns. Main stock of plant woody with a gray and white splotchy bark at base. Branches are green and shiney and have very large heavy thorns spaced several inches apart on opposite sides of the branch. Thorns start turning gray at terminus and eventually turn totally grey as do branches(from shiney green).Winter no leaves on plant.Growing in thicket of this plant on 19th century house site.
ANSWER:You've provided some good information, but it is very difficult - and usually not possible - for Mr. Smarty Plants to identify a plant from a written description. However, we will be happy to try to ID your mystery plant from good-quality digital images. Usually a series of well-focused, close-up images of the plant's leaves, flowers, stems (especially the thorns) , fruit (if available), and an overall shot of the plant yield the best results. Please go to the Ask Mr. Smarty Plants Plant Identification page for specific details on submitting images for identification.
