SPAM! Salesforce web-to-lead forms HELP!
We are receiving a massive amount of SPAM today through our Salesforce web-to-lead forms.
Has anyone else had a similar problem or a possible solution to stop SPAM?
I have just installed the 'WordPress-to-Lead for Salesforce CRM' plugin and I have noticed that it includes 'CAPTCHA' and validates form fields such as 'email'. Handy, but not sure how effective this is.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

The Moderation of Roseanne
short 3.5 page essay on the television show Roseanne
The Moderation of Roseanne
With this year being an election year, the topic of family values is near and dear to us all. With Hollywood getting a left jab from the liberals, and a right cross from the conservatives, about the lack of values in television today: it only intensifies the debate of what is normal, functional, and abnormal, dysfunctional, in television today. The hit television series Roseanne is a perfect portrait of an American family in today's society. Although the family is portrayed as somewhat dysfunctional, when co…

Title : Evaluation of Resins Cured by Ultraviolet Radiation and in Conjunction with Fiber Optic Systems for Use in the Field Repair of Composite Materials.
Descriptive Note : Final rept.,
Corporate Author : ARMY LAB COMMAND WATERTOWN MA MATERIAL TECHNOLOGY LAB
Personal Author(s) : Sennett,Michael S ; Wentworth,Stanley E
PDF Url : ADA181256
Report Date : Mar 1987
Pagination or Media Count : 16
Abstract : Several commercially available resins designed to be cured with ultraviolet radiation were evaluated with respect to their potential for use in the field repair of composite materials. Thermal and mechanical properties of cured resins were evaluated by DSC and TBA techniques. Some cured resins exhibited physical properties which may be suitable for repair application. None of the tested materials was able to cure when impregnated in woven graphite cloth which strongly attenuates the curing radiation. This prevented the use of fiber optics to cure these systems. Keywords: UV curing; Fiber optics; Low energy curing; Field repair; Composite materials; Curing.

Ask a Question
Everyone wants to blame it on the poor coder. If something goes awry, the programmer is the first one to be pointed at with angry fingers. The machine itself couldn't possibly be malfunctioning, could it? That would be impossible, right? Like, cars don't need a tune-up or a brake job once in awhile. It's time to the let world know that machines are not perfect. Sometimes they break. And it's not your job to crawl under the chassis and get grease stains on your face. Put the blame where it belongs. Buy this shirt and wear it defiantly to the office.

Military Crossroads with Career and Technical Education (CTE)
From 2000 to 2004, I was an active duty Soldier in the United States Army and have been in the Florida Army National Guard since 2005.
There are many parts of my military career that stand out in my memory. Basic training, my drill sergeant during the hot summer at Fort Jackson, being in my promotion board during the September 11 attacks, being deployed during multiple state emergencies, and so much more. Most recently, and regardless of political platform, I was honored to play a role in our democracy by providing security support for the 2017 Presidential Inauguration in D.C.
However, these memories and events are not what changed me the most.
Instead, it is the military's connection with CTE that has been the most valuable. That connection positively affected my personal life, my educational pursuits, and my civilian career.
Although military life is not for everyone, the skills and knowledge that are integrated within CTE are for everyone, whether an Army future is in the cards or not.
It's That Time of Year!

The Close of a Chapter: Plugging into the Virtual Community
This post was written by Olivia, a student in the FLVS Creative Writing Club.
As I near the end of my high school career, I can't help but think about all of the wonderful memories and lifelong friends that I have made through FLVS.
As a writer, I have been able to thrive in clubs like Creative Writing Club, News in a Click and NEHS. I have participated in Poetry Read-Ins, Shakespeare Festivals and Celebrate Literacy Month. I have also had the invaluable opportunity to collaborate with immensely talented writers and highlight student work through Open Mics. These experiences have greatly enriched my writing and provided inspiration that I will carry with me when I go to college.
In my final [Creative Writing Club] blog post, I wanted to remind you of the power of plugging into our virtual community. By getting involved in FLVS clubs and activities, you are introduced to a world of inspiration. Continue reading
The Future of Learning
What's so great about sci-fi and fantasy?
These genres allow us to explore complicated ideas in an intriguing way, and both students and adults love them.
Take The Hunger Games and Harry Potter.
Aside from the excitement of these blockbuster hits, they also tackle real-world issues like poverty, oppression, love, death, and war.
To hook students into the learning process, FLVS tries to find ways to incorporate these types of imaginative elements into our courses to teach and captivate them.
From gaming to virtual reality to medical advances, the FLVS curriculum team is always searching for new and innovative trends that can inform course development. Continue reading
Meet FLVS Student Ben Krieger
South Florida resident and FLVS student Ben Krieger (age 12) is now in the final stretch of his two-year professional run as a traveling actor in national Broadway tours.
Ben currently plays the roles of Peter Llewelyn Davies and George Llewelyn Davies in Finding Neverland, showing in major Florida cities in May and June this year. Ben accepted his first job with Pippin the Musical on June 25, 2015 and will take his final bow exactly two years later on June 25, 2017 at The Broward Center for Performing Arts with Finding Neverland. In between, he also toured with The Sound of Music.

The Last Stretch
This is the eleventh post in a series by former FLVS student Makaila, a model, author, and student advocate.
Hey FLVS! Summer is almost in your reach.
The unlimited time at the pool, lack of homework, and more importantly, sleep. Summer feels closer than you think, but don't let it cloud your last grades of the year.
So, to save you in your last few weeks of school, I am going to give you some tips that will lock you in for success.
When I was in school, I was an avid procrastinator, waiting until the last possible minute to do something. Don't do that to yourself.
I promise the extra time you think you're giving yourself isn't worth it. No amount of television or even just hanging out with friends is worth it when it comes to exams. The moments where you will end up cramming could be spent sleeping. And sleeping is a necessity when it comes to not bombing your last exam! Continue reading
FLVS Flex Elementary Gives Students Unique Opportunities
This article was originally written and published in the FLVS student newspaper, News in a Click.
The Florida Virtual School Flex Elementary program provides students with a flexible learning schedule and opportunities to pursue passions such as gymnastics, coding, or art at a young age.
"The program was created and is centered around the students," said Rick Rizzo, FLVS Flex Instructional Leader. The program typically consists of five comprehensive classes: Reading, Technology, Science, Social Studies and Mathematics.
The typical week for a student includes three independent working days, and two teacher-led days of class time, comparable to the live lessons from the middle and high school program of FLVS. "The Class Time sessions allow the teacher and students to develop positive relationships and create a school/classroom community," said Rizzo. "The students enjoy interacting with the teacher and really get excited to see their online friends each week." Continue reading

A Teacher Is…
What is the definition of a teacher?
As described in many dictionaries, a teacher is a person who teaches or instructs, especially as a profession.
While this definition is accurate, I hope you will agree with me that it does not sufficiently describe all that a teacher embodies.
This week, Florida Virtual School is celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week, and I'd like to expand on the definition of a teacher.
At FLVS, our teachers are superheroes. While they do not wear eye masks or fancy capes, they possess special super powers. They are passionate and dedicated to working with all students, recognizing that each learner is unique and has individual strengths and needs. They go beyond educating—they listen, guide, support, and inspire.
We recently asked our staff to come up with their own definition of a teacher. Here are a few of the responses we received to our "A Teacher is…" challenge: Continue reading

Here is when we started to remove the bus seats! This was probably easier than I had thought that it was going to be mainly because our buss had such little rust. It wasn't the most pleasant of jobs however by far one of the easiest and straight forward tasks that we have completed with the bus. I mean its easy this is the seat its bolted down unscrew and remove doesn't take a whole lot of thinking or planning as to getting rid of the seats.

Author's Bio
Born in Canada near Montreal, in Lery. At a very early age I was face to face with discrimination of the other based on religion or skintone and this bothered me. A woman from the Carribean gave direction to my life she said I was right to feel that way, a man from Trinidad taught me about religions, a rabbi removed the original sin, and a First Nation man introduced me to Turtle Island. I was on the side of Mohawks and did learn about the role of women, as a result I produced a radio show for ten years, which led me to unviersity where I studied religions and women. I made a promise to Mohawk women in 1990 to study, learn and then share what I learned and what it means to be a woman hence Little "white" lies. I have published three other books antholgogies.

I been cutring hair since i wass 11 years of age, professionally 10 years. I've always loved cutting hair from men to women and even children.Most of my inspiration comes from my clients loyalty and caring thoughts. Being in this industry has never failed me, its the only thing i see myself doing.
What do you love most about your job?
I love cutting hair but mostly I've grown to love shaving, it's relaxing for both me and my client. Being in this field is like therapy for me. I think alot and share some of my thoughts with clients ..its like support mentally for me and my clients.
What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
''Wow thats thats the best shave i've ever gotten and this shave only cost me 25$ im use to paying 100 bucks lol''.

About the Book
The name Walkwood is, of course, a shortening of the phrase a "walk in the woods." This theme began as a remembrance of the many hours that my grandfather and I would spend hiking on his wooded property near his home in Pennsylvania. And this theme is just that basic; what one might find on such a day spent with nature. And, that you are more likely to stumble upon the Divine on any footpath through a forest or field than any structure or building consecrated by man.

I love teaching group exercise classes; but as a personal trainer I find I also get great results with clients just by going into the gym and utilising the machines. The gym is a great place to get motivated to keep fit but it's good to go with a buddy to keep on track if you need a little discipline!
Some people prefer to use home equipment and I can think of one client who is achieving great results on a rowing machine and free weights set up in front of his TV. He has a couple of sessions with me per week then maintains his fitness at home.
Home equipment can range from a simple pair of dumbbells to build biceps, to an elliptical machine for an all over body workout including your upper body muscle groups.
Elliptical machines are effective for a number of reasons:
I get great results with younger clients and older ones alike such as those in my cardiac rehab group. These machines are good for those with hip, back, knee and elbow problems as they help to build muscle to support the joints in a safer way
I would advise you to shop around and find a good supplier as the quality of home elliptical machines can vary from store to store.
There are a number of different types of exercise bike available and before purchasing one, the intensity of your style of workout is necessary to consider
Another detail that might affect your choice is the amount of space you have. Some bikes are easy to fold away, but I like the standard upright bikes as if you have enough room as they are easy to quickly hop onto for a fast workout in between your daily activities.
These machines are great for maintaining fitness and one of the advantages of them is that they can enable you to enjoy your walk or run, while minimising as much as possible the impact on joints, unlike pounding away on a hard pavement.
There are two main types of treadmill:
As a guide I would try to steer you towards the motorised treadmills, as they tend to offer more functionality than the manual types. Being highly versatile they can be set on a low speed for a gentle warm up and gradually increase speed to comfortably bring your breathing and heart rate up to the desired pace.
There are designs with multiple level inclines and different sizes and they all have a maximum speed. If you are new to running but wish to build up regularly, a machine that goes up to 12 kilometres an hour (about 7.5 mph) should be fine. However you might find that you need a more powerful one that can take you up to 14 or 16kph. I would say the maximum speed to go for when choosing a treadmill would be around 18kph especially if you are training for a race.
Note: I prefer elliptical machines over the treadmill as they work your upper body. If you really enjoy running, then I would suggest incorporating some additional upper body strength training; such as press ups, bicep curls, lateral raises and triceps dips.
These machines are aerobic exercise machines that mainly offer a lower body cardio workout. However, they are a great piece of home fitness equipment that can be used from beginner to advanced and produce a quality fat burning workout in minimal time.
Stair climbers/steppers come in two different styles.
They are a great choice for a cardio workout, but again you will need to carry out an upper body workout separately.
These are fantastic machines that will give you an all-round body workout. I would say that they will give you one of the best fat-burning and body-building workouts around for the time expended on them. They're a great choice for a low impact workout and for general toning, strength training and maintaining flexibility with age.
If you wish to primarily lose weight, then you will do fine with a light resistance rowing machine. If it's for strength training, then you will need one with many levels of resistance to keep your workout challenging.
I like the magnetic rowing machines as their smooth action helps to give the impression of rowing across water.
These fitness machines are ideal for most training goals, they can help you to build muscle and tone up in complete safety as they utilise weight stacks instead of weights or barbells, reducing the risk of injury to poor technique.
If building muscle is your goal, then choose the largest weight stack available – up to 80Kg is good for strength training. It can be useful to choose a home gym with 2 weight stacks, as you can move quickly around the stations and also train with a buddy.
I should point out that these machines do force you to work along the plane that the machine is designed for and as people come in all shapes and sizes; you could be uncomfortable during your workout and run the risk of injuring yourself. Aim for a machine that is fully adjustable and the whole family can use it.
Strength – strength training begins at the core, which are the muscles right alongside your bones. With a broad range of routines, a home gym can help you target these muscles specifically and give you a sleek, well defined look.
Muscles – for maintenance you may wish to keep to a steady routine, but if you wish to build biceps and achieve good body definition, you will want to gradually increase the weights on the stack over time.
There are many variations of home fitness equipment and here are just a few examples. But before you buy your first exercise machine, it is good to keep in mind your short and more importantly your long term goals, to enable you to get the most use of the machine as possible, before you outgrow it.

Posted on 10/22/2009 5:45:38 AM PDT by Hanna548
This is a bit of humor in response to Obama's bit about bringing a mop to help clean up the mess. Just to add a bit of levity, and to make a point;)
How about bringing a pitchfork... and a torch... and tar and feathers, and 537 rails...
I just thought of a new prop for teabag parties
Remember last year when we brought plungers......methinks we need those plungers now. FOR SURE.
Oh thats hilarious:)) AND PERFECT:)
Good one. Bring a mop to clean up zero's wee weed up mess.
I think I will buy a mop on my next shopping trip and tie it to my gate post out on the main road.
Morton the Mopper?
Marvin the Mopper?
Manfred the Mopper?

Music is fundamentally non-linear, yet method books tend to set a straight and narrow path out. The skills that are required to actually function at a professional level, to compose, improvise, interpret, perform, record, and read music, involve a group of mental, physical and emotional processing abilities that happen in different sequences for different people. So where is this chaos, this creativity, this tension between structure and freedom, in method books themselves?
This is the central problem of music teaching: figuring out how to give each student what they need, when they need it, without turning them into a little music robot that knows how to press buttons and read dots, but not much else.
Everything I do, if done correctly, has to contradict itself on some level. I am teaching my students how to eventually not need me. I use notes to teach them how to not need notes. I use randomized card and dice games to create chaos which teaches them how to find order. I use structure to teach them freedom, and I use distraction to teach them focus.
I am finally starting, after 13 years of teaching, to settle comfortably into the contradictions, knowing full well that these contradictions are a baked-in part of my job. Without them, simple answers can mislead both students and teachers into creating assembly lines of repetitive box checkers that create nothing new. If you are stuck in this rut, there is hope! You, too, can be a Creative Piano Teacher.
Music is a living art form. It is dynamic. The great composers were all improvisers first. If we are going to imitate them by copying the note patterns they left behind, it's mandatory that we at least try to understand the dynamic, spontaneous and non-linear side of their Art.
So how, then, can I create a curriculum around this Mystery of Art? How can I create a linear process for the non-linear? What I am looking for is a method for structured freedom.
Creativity is the embracing of contradiction. To teach it, one must use sequences, and, at times, linear processes, and then one must abandon the predictability of any process. This is because creativity is the act of bringing into being, that which previously did not exist. You can't create something new by recombining the broken pieces of something old. This is why coroners don't work as midwives.
Think of it like swimming. The deep end of the pool is 100% creative. There's nothing under your feet. The shallow end is very logical, it's where you are constantly supported by someone else's ideas, someone else's directions. There is a part of the pool where the bottom starts ramping down, and as you move toward the deep end, the water gets progressively deeper. My goal is to move my students down that ramp at a pace they can handle. I don't just throw them in the deep end. The funny thing is, plenty of them choose to jump in themselves. But the ramp is still there for those who need structure to guide them into the formlessness.
People fear the deep water for the same reason that they fear their own creativity. It's a deep fear of the loss of control. This is a central theme in music lessons; we worship as idols the great composers and songwriters who conquered this fear, and yet we stay safe, at a distance from our own creativity, when we simply imitate them without also participating in the creative process itself.
Over the years, I have always told my students that I am a book. They are reading from my pages, copying lessons into their book. We are all living books. Some of us enter the world with chapters already fully formed, others enter completely blank.
It's complicated, of course. Imagine if Paul McCartney had been forced to only do the Thompson Method, he might have had his songwriting impulse smashed. But on the other hand, if a songwriter like Paul McCartney had been the ONLY teacher for someone like Martha Argerich, how would she have developed her incredible virtuoso skills? Some people need highly focused, specific sequences of skills to acquire one after the other.
The answer is simple: the same flexibility that already exists in the way private piano teachers approach each individual student needs to appear more prominently in the method books themselves. There is a growing tide of Creative Piano Teachers who are changing the conversation, and the advances that have already been made in the name of creativity in various methods to date should be pushed even further as those methods go through revisions and updates.
With this in mind, I am writing a new series of method books that take the student and the teacher into the deep end of creativity, but with a ramp, rather than just throwing them in and hoping they can swim. Writing my own method book for this non-linear approach seems, at times, like madness. After all, method books are linear! Doing this well is actually the most linear thing I could think of: a non-linear goal, reached by going through a linear sequence. Completely self-contradictory, and yet this is what all method books are doing, whether or not they choose to admit it.
The end result is a place of dynamic musical flexibility, where students as well as teachers are encouraged to think in the language of music in a non-linear fashion. This is how a person becomes a composer, an improviser, a songwriter. Often the linear process that got them to that point is hidden, or they are unaware of it. But the dirty little secret is very simple: They learned their skills somehow. It didn't just come out of nowhere. It never does.
If you are a teacher, how do you navigate this beautiful abyss?

In fact, most classical music radio stations are non-commercial and are usually located on the non-commercial band, although some can be found on the commercial band but are operated as a non-commercial station. There are some commercially-operated classical radio stations that exist or have existed, such as the WBACH network in Maine which was shut down on February 19, 2017, and 95.5 KHFM in Albuquerque which is being donated to a non-profit operator who intends to convert the station to its non-commercial status while preserving the classical format on the station as part of American General Media's acquisition of Univision's Albuquerque cluster.

It's time to take a second look at your decor.
15 Places Every Harry Potter Fanatic Should Visit
When you walk into a room, pay attention to how you feel. Do your surroundings inspire you? Or do you experience a vaguely persistent "blah" feeling? If the latter rings true, you might want to take a second look at the decor and clutter within the space. Surprisingly, these things can have an impact on your day-to-day emotions, according to experts.More
It's not just a few toys on the floor — it's the constant, ever-rising daily tide of toys, clothes, accessories, and even artwork. "Kid clutter makes parents anxious because it is so difficult to clean up and to find a space to keep it, so it worsens the feeling of being out of control – a feeling that so many parents already have around raising kids, when things aren't going smoothly," says psychologist and author Dr. Susan Bartell.
The overflowing toy box also can be a Pandora's box of triggers. "It also makes parents feel like the house is never clean; that others will judge them negatively, and so they judge themselves harshly because they aren't more 'perfect' at housekeeping. Parents also question how they are spending their money when they see so much clutter — that they have spent such a fortune on SO much stuff that their kids aren't using, which is a waste of money. Finally, it is emotionally draining to sort through the clutter in search of wanted items."
But kids' stuff can be one of the easier categories for decluttering, according to Dr. Bartell: "A recent study by SpareFoot.com found that one-third of parents believe they could get rid of more than 50% of their child's toys without them noticing!"
Your aunt had great intentions when she passed down that fine figurine collection to you. But instead of thinking of her every time you see them, you feel a strong sense of defeat whenever you see the box. "We hold onto heirlooms/gifts even though we don't like or enjoy them because we feel guilty giving them away," says Dr. Bartell. "They weigh us down emotionally and cause physical clutter. We keep things that don't match our sense of style, and we then don't have space for items that would truly bring us joy."
Books carry a surprising amount of emotional weight: The very idea of going through stacks and shelves can be draining, even for the most avowed book lovers. "Book inspire such strong emotions because they have been portals into other worlds, they gave us other lives and expanded imaginations," says Christina Waters, PhD, author of Inside the Flame: The Joy of Treasuring What You Already Have. "We tend to keep those that have been with us during important times in our lives. A favorite novel when we were growing up carries our youthful dreams in its pages. That book of poetry given by a sweetheart is steeped in the feelings we had for each other. It's like giving up a piece of our lives to let go of a beloved book."

Hi Friends!!
Welcome to my blog! It's not fancy...but fun...and maybe cute to look at. :)
I have so much in my life to be thankful for! I am passionate about my family, my friends, my preschool teaching experiences, my faith, and my creative energy. I hope to share my creative spirit with you all.
This summer, I attended a fabulous workshop at THE Mary Engelbreit Studios in St. Louis, Missouri. I had the honor of meeting so many talented and creative people....including Mary Engelbreit herself. My "All About Me" cigar box shadow box (above) is one of the items I created at the workshop. I had so much fun creating the box, I just had to show you all and inspire you to create one yourself! I'm happy to answer any questions you may have in designing your own shadow box. P.S. Mary Engelbreit is currently accepting registration for her November 2011 workshops! Go to her websight for details.
School is about to begin...yea...but...in the summer of 2012, I am planning to begin to host creative workshops...for adults...in my home. Imagine...attending a workshop where all of the materials are at hand and one can have fun laughing and creating with friends. My first workshop will be a "scrapbook" of sorts. My idea is to turn your child's favorite hardbound book into a "scrapbook". The stiffer the pages the better. So, start collecting photos of your child and find...or buy a new copy of...their favorite book. I'll have more workshop details in the Spring of 2012.
My first workshop idea came from one of the other items I made at the 2011 Mary Engelbreit Summer Workshop. I turned one of my many ME books into a scrapbook of my experience at the workshop! I decorated the cover and back of the book at the workshop and filled in the pages later. Yes, that is a photo of Mary Engelbreit and ME! :)
So, I hope you enjoy my little blog. I plan of sharing lots of photos. Not sure how often I'll post as school is about to begin...did I mention I LOVE teaching preschool?!? :)
At "Lucy's Thimbleart...Etc.", I will often post items I have for sale. So please enjoy looking and shopping! :)
XO, Lucy

Lucy, my niece and I were with you at ME's, so wonderful! I did start (had one so far) art night with some friends. It was great! We must be on the same wavelength, as I started a blog on Monday...Creativity in a Life. I would love to link yours and have no problems with you adding. How fun!ReplyDelete
Awesome Lucy! You go girl...!ReplyDelete

News : Optus Opens 126 Small Business Specialist Stores, SMB Call Centre
#contactcenterworld, @optus
Adelaide, Australia, May 16, 2016 -- Optus is kicking off an SMB support campaign through the introduction of more than 100 specialist stores, a call centre, and improved support services.
Optus has announced opening 126 small and medium-sized business (SMB) specialist stores as well as an SMB call centre in Adelaide as part of a renewed focus on supporting small business owners across the country.
"Many SMB operators are time-poor and want access to quality service around the clock. Whilst many are happy to visit our stores for a fast transaction off-the-shelf, we know others require a premium level of service to help them grow, and we're committed to delivering that," managing director of Optus Small Business Rob Parcell said.
"Most small businesses owners don't work 'nine-to-five'. They conduct their business from their home, the front seat of a van, or a shared innovation space. They need access to a reliable, high-speed connection to the world and an expert team who understands their unique communication needs."
Optus has been focusing on business owners of late; last week, it introduced Retail Assist, a mobile point-of-sale product developed in collaboration with Microsoft, HP, and Australia's banks, which enables retailers to manage inventory, verify stock, examine stored customer information, and process sales from an in-store mobile device.
In order to "reshape" its workforce, Optus announced a restructure of its Enterprise and Consumer divisions announced last month through a series of redundancies. Under the restructure, Optus will consolidate and make redundant a number of jobs, with a company spokesperson telling ZDNet that depending on "redeployment opportunities", the upper limit on the total jobs to go would be 480. CEO Allen Lew last week would not be drawn on the definite number of jobs going.
Optus also announced on Monday that it is partnering with small business owner -- and actor -- Mark Wahlberg as part of its SMB campaign.
"We are working with Mark on a campaign that encourages small business operators to believe big," Parcell said.

The day I realized I was racist, I sat on the toilet–well, at least metaphorically sat on the toilet.
After the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, if you were in the pizza business, you saw a distinct drop in the business and tips. Before 9/11, I could work three or four days a week and earn enough cash to pay the rent and electric, take my wife out to dinner. After 9/11, you either didn't get the business or you didn't get the tips. I remember one night I had ten deliveries and zero tips. And even though most drivers are reimbursed for fuel, I din' t have enough to fill the tank at the end of the night.
The hallmark of a good pizza delivery driver is that one knows the area well and stereotypes begin to form in your head: black people don't tip, Latinos always tip, wealthy white people behind their bolted doors never tip, always deliver to the poor neighborhoods. And if you're a really great driver, you know your customers–you know their names and you know how easy they are with their wallets, and the more money you throw the driver on a consistent basis, the better your service–you start getting paper plates, napkins, Parmesan cheese and red pepper packets. And most importantly, when the driver leaves the store with three, four deliveries, even if you're last on the list, your pizza is delivered first.
Look, it's all a matter of economics.
Look, it's all a matter of economics.
You don't necessarily get to choose your deliveries, but there are tricks you can work. Such as not speeding, but running between doors and the car. Taking more deliveries than you should, or taking less deliveries than you should. Or, in my case, telling people you have the runs and hiding in the bathroom–
So a delivery came up on the screen. The customer had never ordered from us before, but I knew the delivery was going to a predominately black neighborhood. The delivery after it, that one looked promising–a middle class suburb that had fallen on hard times, a lot of blue collar workers who understood the value of a dollar–what it was like to hustle.
I did not want to take the delivery to the African American–that whole economics thing coupled with my perceived stereotypes. I went to the bathroom. I heard my manager asking where I was, and I replied through the door, "I'm going to be a bit. Just have someone else take it."
When I returned from my delivery, angry because I delivered to a sweet old lady with silver hair who pressed three quarters into my hand with the admonishment not to spend it all in one place. "I'm giving you an extra quarter," she said. "It's so nice for you to come out like this. I always used to give the grocer a nickel. Of course,they don't carry your groceries out to the car like they used to." Yeah, old people played you for the fool too.
When I returned to the store, I asked the driver who took the African American delivery how he did: five dollar tip.

Scanned from The Hellenic Voice of 3/20/02
By GEORGE C. CHRYSSIS
Early period of the American philhellenic movement
The 1776 American Revolution was an inspiration to the then enslaved Greeks,
not only during the actual days of the revolutionary war but long after its
successful completion and the eventual declaration of independence and the
creation of the United States of America.
There are unconfirmed reports, that in the battle of Monmouth. New Jersey,
which look place on June 28, 1778, Greek volunteers fought under the
leadership of a young man called Demetrios Ypsilanti, who allegedly later
returned to Greece and might have fought or influenced the advent of the War
for Independence.
Today, a town near Detroit, Michigan, bears the name Ypsilanti in honor of a
Demetrios Ypsilanti. Historians point out that the town was named after the
Greek Revolution hero Demetrios Ypsilanti, brother of "Philiki Eteria"
leader Alexandros Ypsilanti, rather than the "Monmouth battle legend."
Irrespective of whom the town was named after, the fact remains that the
heroism of a Greek freedom fighter inspired judge Augustus Woodward to name,
in 1833, a town after a man "who in the beginning of the 19th Century, in
charge of three hundred men. successfully battled an entire Turkish army,
inflicting damage and eventually escaping without losing a single man."
When the bell of the Revolution rang in 1821 and the cry "Freedom or Death"
resonated over the enslaved Greeks, a number of American philhellenes
started a lobbying campaign in the United Stales for the support of the
Greek War of Independence, a campaign that captured the imagination of many
influential political and civil leaders in America.
The Greeks on the other hand, knew from the very beginning of (heir War of
Independence that the American people would understand their struggle,
having themselves fought for independence a few years back, and sought the
support and influence of the new Republic to advance and promote their
Thus, on May 25, 1821, Petros Mavromichalis, on behalf of the Messinian
Congress sent a letter to the then Secretary of Stale John Quincy Adams that
was published in the American newspapers asking for moral support, "Your
virtues, Americans, are close to ours, although a broad sea separates us".
wrote among other Mavromichalis. "We feel you closer than our neighboring
countries and we consider you as friends, co-patriots and brothers, because
yon are fair, philanthropic and brave... Do not deny to help us..."
Edward Everett, a Harvard professor and great philhellene, who was also the
publisher of the North American Review, published every correspondence of
letters or appeals that he was receiving from Greece and through articles
and speeches he made strong public pronouncements for the recognition of the
Revolution and for sending military aid to Greece.
On December 3, 1822, president James Monroe in his annual address to
Congress said; "A strong hope is entertained that the Greeks will recover
their independence and assume their equal station among the nations of the
Unfortunately, on December 2, 1823, president Monroe announced the "Monroe
Doctrine" which in essence excluded the United States from getting involved
in European affairs and considered the then existing European governments as
"de facto legitimate."
On December 8, 1823, Congressman from Massachusetts Daniel Webster made a
motion in Congress for the appropriation of money to send an American envoy
to Greece and for the support of the Greek struggle for independence. On
January 19. 1824, Webster gave a powerful and resonating speech in defense
of his proposal. "1 have in mind the modern not the ancient, the alive and
not the dead Greece... today's Greece, fighting against unprecedented
difficulties... a Greece fighting for its existence and for the common
privilege of human existence," said Webster.
Henry Clay, a Congressman from Kentucky, supported Webster's motion and in a
moving oratorical speech on January 20, 1824, asked Congress to officially
recognize the Greek War of Independence and send an envoy to Greece to
examine and report on the situation. He stressed the fact thai Ihc entire
American nation was showing sympathy and support for Greece and urged
Congress to suppress any fears and apprehensions and to help a Christian
General Sam Houston, a member of Congress, supported Daniel Webster's motion also.
Unfortunately, due to strong opposition from members of Congress that adhered to the
principles of the "Monroe Doctrine," the Webster motion was defeated.
However, the speeches of the great philhellenes, Webster and Clay, were
widely publicized in America. Europe and South America and sparked the
interest of many individuals who decided to help the Greek revolution with
various means. The influence and the positive contributions of the American
philhellenes to the Greek War of Independence had just begun.
Theodoros Kolokotronis (1770-1843),
the leading military hero of the 1821
Greek Revolution of Independence.
Thomas Jefferson and Adamantios Koraes
It is worth noting that Adamantios Koraes, a Greek physician, intellectual,
scholar and an early prophet of the Revolution, who believed that
independence of Greece could only be achieved by educational progress, wrote
many times to Jefferson asking for his support to the struggle of Greece for
Koraes, who lived in Paris, met Jefferson there around 1785, when Jefferson
served as the ambassador of the new Republic to France. Following
Jefferson's return to America in 1789, the two men continued their
friendship through correspondence.
Koraes' letters to Jefferson were passionate and full of patriotic zest,
always making a case why i! was to the best interest of America and the
American people to help Greece. "Help us, fortunate Americans," wrote Koraes
in a letter dated July 10. 1823, "We are not asking you for a handout.
Rather, we are providing you with an opportunity to augment your good
Koraes knew that appealing to powerful and enlightened philhellenes, such
as Jefferson, to intervene and influence their respective governments for
the recognition of the Greek cause was the right thing to do. As an
"enlightened revolutionary" he believed that the power of intellect and
diplomacy was more effective than the might of soldiers and arms.
Through correspondence and personal contacts. Koraes convinced many foreign
intellectuals that the unbroken use of the Greek language since classical
days, together with a continuous habitation of the same lands and of common
religion, history and tradition was conclusive evidence of the existence of
a Greek national identity, thus establishing a strong argument for the
recognition of an independent Greek state.
The American philhellenes
The first American to travel to Greece and join the Greek War of
Independence as a volunteer was George Jarvis, a New Yorker, who went to
Greece in 1822. He learned the Greek language, put on a "fous-t an el la"
(Greek kilted skirt) and upon joining the "kleftes" (Greek guerilla
fighters) he became known as Kapetan Zervos. Jarvis participated, in many
battles and was repeatedly wounded. He died of natural causes in Argos on
August 11,1828, but his appeals back home for aid and contributions to the
Greek cause paid off.
Jarvis became a role model for other American volunteers. In 1824, Captain
Jonathan P. Miller of Vermont arrived in Greece. He too learned the Greek
language, worn the foustanella and was fearless in battle. Miller was in
Missolonghi during its siege and in a letter to Everett dated May 3, 1826,
he described the heroic exodus and the subsequent massacre of the
While in Greece, Miller adopted a four-year-old boy, whom he brought back to
Vermont. This boy, Loukas Miltiades Miller, graduated from Vermont"
University in 1845 and shortly thereafter he married and moved to the town
of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, where he engaged in business and civic activities. In
1853 he was elected a member of the State Legislature and in 1891 he was the
first American of Greek origin to be elected to the Congress of the United
States of America.
However, by far the best-known philhellene is Dr. Samuel Gridley Howe, a
Bostonian. Upon his arrival in Greece, he enlisted in the Greek Army and for
six years he served as soldier and a chief surgeon. In 1829 he established a medical center
in Aegina and a school for (he blind in Corinth. Long after the revolution, Howe continued
to be active in Greek affairs, both in Greece and in the United States, in 1866, during the Cretan
Revolution, he returned to Greece with his wife Julia Ward Η owe to organize
support for the new uprising of die Cretans against Ottoman tyranny and
Other American philhellenes who went to Greece to offer their services
during the Revolution were George Wilson of Providence, Rhode Island, who
excelled in bravery during the naval battle at Nafpaktos; James Williams,
an African American from Baltimore who joined the Greek Navy forces; Estwick
Evans from New Hampshire, who left behind his wife and children in order to
fight the Greek Revolution of Independence; captain John M. Alien; and
William Townsend Washington, a distant relative of president George
Washington, who despite his erratic personal behavior and life style he was
tearless and brave and fell heroically in the battle of Palamidi.
In the meantime, the Greek Revolution was gaining support among the American
philhellene citizens and many were collecting money to help the Greek
cause. Through the fundraising efforts of New York philhellenes, the amount
of 6,600 sterling pounds was collected in 1824 and was forwarded to the
Greek government via London.
During a fundraiser in New York, Nicholas Biddle, a banker, offered the then
largest personal donation of $300 to the New York Greek Relief Committee,
while president John Adams in a letter to the same committee encouraged the
fundraising efforts.
Leading the fundraising efforts in Baltimore was Charles Carroll of
Carrollton, a signatory of the Declaration of Independence, and in
Philadelphia the leader was Mathew Carey.
In 1825, the French General Lafayette, a great philhellene and staunch
supporter of the Greek Revolution, visited the United States and in every
affair that he attended in his honor proclaimed the importance and the moral
responsibility of helping, in any way possible, the Greek struggle for
However, by 1826 the initial enthusiasm of the American public begun to
wane, partly due to conflicting reports about the success of the war and
also because of disturbing news about infighting and rivalry among the
Greek leaders.
To rekindle the American philhellenic movement, the Greek revolutionary
leader Theodoros Kolokotronis, through George Jarvis, sent a letter to
Edward Everett dated July 5, 1826, in which the great Greek leader explained
the situation in Greece, pledged unity and appealed for further help and
support. "Greece is forever grateful to the philanthropy of our Christian
[American] brothers", wrote Kolokotronis, "who share her struggle and who
also support with their funds her just war [for independence]... the
Greeks, determined to live or die free, do not fear shedding their blood...
or the killing of their old, their women and their children. .. and they
are ready to accept death rather than slavery; and now, more dian ever,
enthusiastically and united they are 'moving forward against [the Turks]...
The Greek nation is not ungrateful to its benefactors. It is grateful to
those who proclaim its epic struggle and their names will be recorded with
indelible letters in the annals of the reborn Greece, in timeless display,
for the respect of upcoming generations... Do not stop sending us your
contributions... thus [you are] benefiting humanity and fulfilling Christ's
will."-" -·'-·--- · ·
The letter was translated by Everett and parts of it, along with pans from
Jarvis' accompanying letter, were published in newspapers in Boston,
Philadelphia, New York and other cities, sparking a new initiative of aid
and assistance for the Greek nation.
Material aid to Greece
Captain Jonathan P. Miller returned to the United States in 1826 and through
the efforts of the New York, he was able to collect $17,500 worth of various
relief supplies, which he look back to Greece onboard the ship
"Chancellor", on March 5, 1827.
The same year two more ships, "Jane" and "Six Brothers," left New York
harbor bound for Greece carrying various relief supplies of $25,000 in the
At about the same time, two more shiploads of supplies totaling about
$22,500 left the port of Philadelphia onboard the ships "Tontine" and
"Levant," while from Boston the ship "Statesman" carried to Greece cargo
worth over $ 11,500.
All these relief provisions that contained food items, clothing, medical
supplies and other necessities, were distributed primarily to the suffering
Greek civilian population, albeit soldiers and brigands stole some supplies
upon the arrival of the cargo to Greece.
On " January 2, 1827, Congressman Edward Livingston from Louisiana
introduced a motion in Congress for the appropriation of $50,000 to purchase
supplies for the needy people of Greece. His motion was defeated, but
through private initiatives and fundraising activities $80,000 was collected
in a combination of cash, food items and other in-kind aid.
In 1827 and 1828 a total of eight shiploads of supplies and relief aid worth
more than $150,000 (an extraordinary amount in today's standards) were
dispatched to Greece and distributed by overseeing officials to needy
members of the civilian population.
It was obvious that the publication of Kolokotronis' letter had a great
impact in rekindling the humanitarian interest of the Americans toward the
ongoing Greek struggle. Furthermore, the articles about Greece and its War of
Independence that Everett and Carey published through their media publications,
along with the letters and reports published in American newspapers from the
great philhellenes and humanitarians Howe, Miller and Jarvis, kept the struggle and
plight of the Greeks in the forefront of the American public opinion.
It is estimated that thousand of Greeks were saved from starvation, exposure
to the elements and disease through the efforts of these philhellenes. It
may be safe to say that without the moral, intellectual, political, monetary
and in-kind assistance of these men, the outcome of the War of Independence
might have been different.
And lastly, these men arranged to transport a number of war orphans to the
United States that were adopted by American families. Many of these orphans
excelled in their professions and became productive and admired citizens of
the United States. Some chose to go back to Greece to offer their expertise
and advice to the newly created Greek state.
The great Bostonian philhellene
Dr. Samuel Gridley Howe,
in an 1859 photograph.
As we celebrate the 181st anniversary of the Greek Revolution for
Independence, America has become an economic and military superpower, while
Greece is an equal economic and social member of the European Union and the
"economic and democratic powerhouse in the Balkans", as President Clinton
declared during his visit to Greece.
Now more than ever, Greece
Greece and America need to draw strength from the timeless bonds that have
developed through years of defending and protecting identical ideals and
values. The spirit that developed during the American and the Greek
revolutions must be rekindled and kept alive.
There are over 2.5 million Americans in the United States that can trace
their ancestry to Greece, who are productive and respected members of our
society. They represent the best educated and the second wealthiest ethnic
group in America.
Americans of Hellenic descend me proud of their ancestry, they are very
patriotic and love America and Greece for what they both stand: democracy,
freedom, respect for human rights and economic opportunity.
These are the ideals and values upon which the 1776 American Revolution was
based, and these are also the ideals and values which the 1821 Greek
Revolution embraced.
Both Revolutions for Independence taught us that freedom is earned with
sacrifice and it takes sacrifice to remain free. They also taught us not to
take liberty for granted, but to keep fighting for liberty, no matter how
adverse and challenging the circumstances may be. This message is especially
true today.
On this festive Greek Independence Day, let the spirit of 1821 continue to
inspire our thoughts and our actions and together let us proclaim that
freedom, democracy and respect for human rights, along with the Hellenic
spirit, are the greatest gifts that we have received and these are indeed
the greatest gifts that we can pass on to our children and grandchildren."
