"BALDWIN'S NIGGER" (James Baldwin and Dick Gregory) 1969
if we were concerned with freedom…but we're concerned with power
no white american is sure he's white
20 min – that's the thing about oppression.. the most subtle effect is what it does to your mind.. what it does to the way you think about yourself.. that's the whole cornerstone…
30 min – at this hour of world's history i have an advantage over you because i am compelled to doubt my history, examine it, create it.. that means i have to question everything.. white person is opposite.. right in the middle.. to apart from his own morality.. he is part of the people who at this hour are putting a black person in jail, whipping him, … that innocence can be in crucial moments a very grave danger
33 min – it's not a matter of my liberation ..it's also a matter of yours.. we have to work together for each other to save this really frightening world.
41 min – whit is not a color it's an attitude, black is not a color, it's an attitude
one ness
Who is the Nigger?
i'm not describing you when i talk about you.. i'm describing me.
white people invented the nigger. what you were describing was not me… you invented it.. it had to be something you were afraid of. you invested me with it.
i know and i've always known… that i'm not a nigger. but if i am not the nigger.. then who is..
i am not the victim here.
i know that a person is more important than anything else.
but you still think, i gather, that the nigger is necessary. well he's unnecessary to me. so he must be necessary to you. so i give you your problem back.
1965 debate with buckley
19 min – by the time you're 30 – nothing you have done and nothing you can do has helped you (or your son/daughter) escape the trap
22 min – on economy – i built the railroads.. under someone else's whip .. for nothing
24 min – now helplessly believing.. one enormous consolation.. at least they are not black.. what has happened to whites is much worse than what has happened to blacks… something awful must have happened to a human being to be able to put a cattle prod to a woman's breast… that is much much worse.. moral lives destroyed by the plague called color
28 min – what we are not doing is facing the results of what we've done
31 min – on believing that it's true.. that you belong where white people put you
37 min – it's a terrible thing for an entire people to surrender to the notion that 1/9 of the population is beneath them..
38 min – standing o
James Arthur Baldwin (August 2, 1924 – December 1, 1987) was an American novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, and social critic. His essays, as collected in Notes of a Native Son (1955), explore palpable yet unspoken intricacies of racial, sexual, and class distinctions in Western societies, most notably in mid-20th-century America, and their inevitable if unnameable tensions. Some Baldwin essays are book-length, for instance The Fire Next Time (1963),No Name in the Street (1972), and The Devil Finds Work (1976).
Baldwin's novels and plays fictionalize fundamental personal questions and dilemmas amid complex social and psychological pressures thwarting the equitable integration of not only blacks, but also of gay and bisexual men, while depicting some internalized obstacles to such individuals' quests for acceptance. Such dynamics are prominent in Baldwin's second novel, written well before gay equality was widely espoused in America: Giovanni's Room(1956).[2] Baldwin's first novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, is said to be his best-known work.

artists struggle for integrity – excerpt
1\ the poets (all artists) are the only people who know the truth about us
2\ the price of the artists – willingness to give up everything..
giving is not an investment.. it is a total risk.. of everything.. of you.. of who you think you are…
– – – –
Any Negro who is born in this country and undergoes the American education system runs the risk of becoming schizophrenic.
As adults, we are easily fooled because we are so anxious to be fooled. But children are very different. Children, not yet aware that it is dangerous to look too deeply at anything, look at everything, look at each other, and draw their own conclusions. They don't have the vocabulary to express what they see, and we, their elders, know how to intimidate them very easily and very soon.
Even today, so brainwashed is this republic that people seriously ask in what they suppose to be good faith, "What does the Negro want?" I've heard a great many asinine questions in my life, but that is perhaps the most asinine and perhaps the most insulting. But the point here is that people who ask that question, thinking that they ask it in good faith, are really the victims of this conspiracy to make Negroes believe they are less than human.
In order for me to live, I decided very early that some mistake had been made somewhere. I was not a "nigger" even though you called me one. But if I was a "nigger" in your eyes, there was something about you – there was something you needed.
America is not the world and if America is going to become a nation, she must find a way – and this child must help her to find a way to use the tremendous potential and tremendous energy which this child represents. If this country does not find a way to use that energy, it will be destroyed by that energy.
It is very nearly impossible to become an educated person in a country so distrustful of the independent mind.
hollywood rountable -Harry Belafonte, Marlon Brando, Charlton Heston, Sidney Poitier, Joseph Mankiewicz, James Baldwin and David Schoenbrun discuss the Civil Rights March on Washington, August 28, 1963.
Title: Hollywood Round Table – Civil Rights, ca. 1963
James Baldwin, one of the most distinguished writers and thinkers of his time, and the FBI spied on him relentlessly: interc.pt/1Knza9d
from James Baldwin (via Maria):
Perhaps the primary distinction of the artist is that he must actively cultivate that state which most men, necessarily, must avoid; the state of being alone.
self-talk as data.. as we are set free to be us/artists.. all of us..
Most of us are not compelled to linger with the knowledge of our aloneness, for it is a knowledge that can paralyze all action in this world. There are, forever, swamps to be drained, cities to be created, mines to be exploited, children to be fed. None of these things can be done alone. But the conquest of the physical world is not man's only duty. He is also enjoined to conquer the great wilderness of himself. The precise role of the artist, then, is to illuminate that darkness, blaze roads through that vast forest, so that we will not, in all our doing, lose sight of its purpose, which is, after all, to make the world a more human dwelling place.
2 needs – toward us.. toward eudaimoniative surplus
It is for this reason that all societies have battled with the incorrigible disturber of the peace — the artist. …And it is absolutely inevitable that when a tradition has been evolved, whatever the tradition is, the people, in general, will suppose it to have existed from before the beginning of time and will be most unwilling and indeed unable to conceive of any changes in it. They do not know how they will live without those traditions that have given them their identity. Their reaction, when it is suggested that they can or that they must, is panic… And a higher level of consciousness among the people is the only hope we have, now or in the future, of minimizing human damage.
In a sentiment that Jeanette Winterson would come to echo decades later — "Art … says, don't accept things for their face value; you don't have to go along with any of this; you can think for yourself."
The artist is distinguished from all other responsible actors in society — the politicians, legislators, educators, and scientists — by the fact that he is his own test tube, his own laboratory, working according to very rigorous rules, however unstated these may be, and cannot allow any consideration to supersede his responsibility to reveal all that he can possibly discover concerning the mystery of the human being.
Societies never know it, but the war of an artist with his society is a lover's war, and he does, at his best, what lovers do, which is to reveal the beloved to himself and, with that revelation, to make freedom real.
from James Baldwin and Margaret Mead's rap on race (via Maria):
BALDWIN: The world is scarcely habitable for the conscious young… There is a tremendous national, global, moral waste.
let's do this first: free art ists.. energy we need
MEAD: I know.
BALDWIN: And the question is, How can it be arrested? That's the enormous question. Look, you and I both are whatever we have become, and whatever happens to us now doesn't really matter. We're done. It's a matter of the curtain coming down eventually. But what should we do about the children? We are responsible; so far as we are responsible at all, our responsibility lies there, toward them. We have to assume that we are responsible for the future of this world.
MEAD: That's right.
BALDWIN: What shall we do? How shall we begin it? How can it be accomplished? How can one invest others with some hope?
MEAD: Then we come to a point where I would say it matters to know where we came from. That it matters to know the long, long road that we've come through. And this is the thing that gives me hope we can go further.

In a world in which there is an increasing abandonment of egalitarian and democratic impulses, what will it take to educate young people to challenge authority and in the words of James Baldwin "rob history of its tyrannical power, and illuminate that darkness, blaze roads through that vast forest, so that we will not, in all our doing, lose sight of its purpose, which is after all, to make the world a more human dwelling place.
James Baldwin empowered me to question what people called me ("illegal alien," "faggot") and respond w/: "I give you your problem back."

James Baldwin on how we imprison ourselves, the role of the writer, and what freedom really means—superb read brainpickings.org/2016/05/09/jam…
Freedom is not something that anybody can be given; freedom is something people take and people are as free as they want to be. One hasn't got to have an enormous military machine in order to be un-free when it's simpler to be asleep, when it's simpler to be apathetic, when it's simpler, in fact, not to want to be free, to think that something else is more important.
turtle ness though.. we could help us all leap there.. today.. for (blank)'s sake…
There is an illusion about America, a myth about America to which we are clinging which has nothing to do with the lives we lead and I don't believe that anybody in this country who has really thought about it or really almost anybody who has been brought up against it — and almost all of us have one way or another — this collision between one's image of oneself and what one actually is is always very painful and there are two things you can do about it, you can meet the collision head-on and try and become what you really are or you can retreat and try to remain what you thought you were, which is a fantasy, in which you will certainly perish.
We made the world we're living in and we have to make it over.

Original Tweet: https://twitter.com/NewBlackMan/status/734018009082236928
But against these fecund conceptions of silence stands silence of a very different kind — the oppressive muting of dissenting, divergent, and minority voices, imposed first from the outside and then from the inside. (James Baldwin captured this internalized oppression memorably: "It's not the world that was my oppressor, because what the world does to you, if the world does it to you long enough and effectively enough, you begin to do to yourself.")

the price of the ticket.. notes/quotes:
intro – the price of the ticket
part of the price of the black ticket is involved – fatally – with the dream of becoming white.
this is not possible, partly because white people are not white: part of the price of the white ticket is to delude themselves into believing that they are
i am really saying something very simple.. there was not then nor is there now a single american institution which is not a racist institution. and racist institutions – the unions.. the church, the army.. are meant to keep the nigger in his place..
those people who have opted for being white congratulate themselves on their generous ability to return to the slave that freedom which they never had any right to endanger, much less take away. for this dubious effort, and still more dubious achievement, the congratulate themselves and expect to be congratulated; in the coin, furthermore , of black gratitude, gratitude not only that my burden is (slowly, but it takes time).. being made lighter but my joy that white people are improving..
a multitude is, i suppose, by defn, an anonymous group of people bound or driven together by fears (i wrote 'tears') an hopes and needs which no individual member could face or articulate alone..
these ideas do not come from the mob. they come from the state, which creates and manipulates the mob. the idea of a black persons as property.. for ie.. not from mob.. not a spontaneous idea. it does not come from the people, who knew better, who thought nothing of intermarriage until they were penalized for it: this idea comes from the architects of the american state. these architects decided that the concept of property was more important -more real- than the possibilities of the human being

Archbishop Louis Kebreau of Cap-Hatien and president of the Haitian Bishops' Conference, made the announcement that following Holy Week, the Port-au-Prince seminary will resume its activities interrupted by the country's January 12 earthquake.
Speaking to Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), Archbishop Kebreau said the seminarians from the various dioceses of Haiti will be housed in tents, along with the academic staff. "The new beginning is a sign of hope for our devastated and traumatized land," he stated.
"A great many Haitians are looking to their pastors for help and consolation, he said, noting that many continue to live in a state of shock after losing a spouse, children or other family members."
"The survivors have lost everything."
"The Church too, has lost a great many of her own pastoral workers, including laity, religious sisters, priests and bishops." The prelate added that counted among those who have died are 30 of the 260 seminarians at the former seminary."
Nevertheless, Archbishop Kebreau continued, "Things are now slowly returning to normal, but at the same time everyone knows there is still much work to be done. We are still at the very beginning."

2 young girls hide in closet after burglars break into Ogden home
MrsH Altamont, UTApril 4, 2014 9:21 a.m.
Smart girls. I admire them for keeping such a cool head in this situation. I don't know if I could have! Glad everyone is OK.
PLM Kaysville, UTApril 4, 2014 8:18 a.m.
I don't watch t.v. and rarely watch movies; I was listening because I was working on a piece of art and my husband had it on. The news reported there were three suspects and one was at large, I was concerned because I thought showing the girls might make them more vulnerable to retaliation by the third suspect. I've been around long enough to know that witnesses are often in danger.
Ironmomo Ogden, UTApril 3, 2014 2:31 p.m.
Grateful that the girls were safe. Suggest the family buy a doggie. They can be a deterrence to burglars who hit homes at random....unless of course it's my dog. Give her a milkbone and she'll lead you to all the hidden valuables in the home.
Mainly Me Werribee, 00April 3, 2014 12:42 p.m.
This is one of the reason why we have the 2nd Amendment.
grannymelva Mountain Home, IDApril 3, 2014 12:40 p.m.
My question is, What took the police so long to get there? Horrible things could have happened to those girls.
Eliyahu Pleasant Grove, UTApril 3, 2014 11:55 a.m.
The burglars already know where the girls live -- they' just broken into the place. As far as them being at risk of "revenge", you've been watching too many TV movies. The two are in jail, and given the seriousness of breaking into an occupied dwelling, their bail is certain to be high enough that they'll stay there until trial.
samhill Salt Lake City, UTApril 3, 2014 7:55 a.m.
Another instance where the perpetrators deserve only justice, no mercy.
Dante Salt Lake City, UTApril 3, 2014 7:47 a.m.
God bless these girls. I doubt the burglars will be punished severely enough. More crime from drug addicts.
J-TX Allen, TXApril 3, 2014 7:24 a.m.
I thought the press wasn't supposed to print the names of minors. What if this yayhoo gets out and comes looking for them?
PLM Kaysville, UTApril 3, 2014 6:07 a.m.
This was reported on the Channel Two News last night and all I could think was that they were interviewing and showing the two minor victims while one of the suspects was still at large. I was outraged. Unless the police were using this as a tactic to lure the suspect back, these two girls are now at greater risk; he knows where they live and what they look like. I think it was dangerously irresponsible reporting.

I hope Pikes Peak Market Place opens a facebook page soon. We were just in there and it is great.
where can you find good blutwurst in this town, or the next, or the state???
That place is awful. The one on uintah is great.
I've always thought the same thing.
Who wants this buffet when there are several better in the area. It's not like their delivery is any better.
Is it me or does it seem as though Mr. Schniper had already made up his mind about the place before even stepping foot in the door? He clearly has been disappointed by the Cow and is unable to be objective knowing this place is owned by the same people. The Purple Toad is by far the nicest place to eat in Falcon- the service is always excellent and the decor is both upscale and comfortable at the same time. What kind of a person slams a locally owned business for hanging up the American flag for crying out loud? This is Falcon, not L.A. or NYC and the place fits right into our neighborhood perfectly.
Ive eaten there a dozen times and everything Ive ordered has been fantastic. They actually do have a chef working in the kitchen who came from Patty Jewitt / Garden of the Gods Gourmet and was a contestant on Hells Kitchen. The reviewers opinion of just 3 out of the 40+ menu items is not a fair representation of the place as a whole...and Im sorry but Im pretty sure that most people prefer cocktails that taste smooth not being able to taste the alcohol doesnt mean there is a problem- it means the ingredients in the recipe are well-balanced. This is restaurant 101 stuff here... but I would certainly hope that the food writer at the Independent would know that already.
Closest brewery to my house and they have some interesting beer. I ride past it every time because the owners attitude manages to leach through the whole place.
The lack of production space is what will doom the folks trying to peddle their wares. That's the reason I decided not to put in a booth for our bakery. You have to sell alot of product in order to pay for the booth and the off-site production facility. I wish them the best of luck and hopefully it will allow them to get a much larger place and production facility.
A good neighbor wouldnt charge $5 for a bowl of Cheerios.
Just for clarification, Good Neighbors is situated and building community in the heart of the Patty Jewett neighborhood.
I worked at Pasta di Solazzi as a young lady. Unfortunately, I was sexually harrassed by the head chef, Americo Boccia. Though I had been told I was doing an excellent job multiple times by staff and the owners, Gina Solazzi fired me (and other female staff who were also harrassed) instead of standing up to Mr. Boccia. She was well aware of what was going on and chose to turn a blind eye. It was difficult to understand how a fellow woman could perpetuate a culture of harassment and abuse. I cried as I left that final day. It was an intensely horrible and humiliating experience that I will never forget.
Veterans or veterinarians? Either is cool in my book, just need to know who to invite.
I love this place. Wish the prices were a little cheaper but I keep an eye out for the specials
Where are you?
hurrah seafood
will you be at Pioneer Museum this Tuesday , oct 10
The cocoa tea is my favourite tea as a child in Dominica and it is still my favourite tea to this day.
Thanks Ari and CS Independent for the pleasant surprise with an article about my little Caribbean island, Dominica. I have lived in CSprings since the 90s and have been reading the CS Indy all this time. My reggae band here will be hosting and jammin at a Dominica benefit dance at Rasta Pasta CS on Friday, October 13. Keep up the great work. I love cocoa tea.

Sheila, it looks like there's more than a few such spots. There's a blog (a little out of date) that says over a third of the bars Bar Rescue has featured have closed (see http://www.barrescueupdates.com/p/all-bar-…).
Of course, that shouldn't be taken to say Bar Rescue caused these bars to close. If someone's not running a bar well, that's another problem.
Can't wait for The Bench! Downtown needs a great sports bar with craft beer and great food. Please hurry!
Can't wait for The Bench! We need a great sports bar with great food downtown. Please hurry!
This is the second place, that I know of, that Bar Rescue has "improved" and has shut it's doors within 2 years of the show being done. One was in Maryland and now this one.

ROODEE QUEEN is hard to get away from in her current form. She's upped in class after landing a four-timer on her latest start at Bath, but she scored by four lengths, so a 6lb penalty is unlikely to anchor her here. Goodwood winner Perfect Pastime went close over C&D three weeks ago and has solid claims, while Dream Catcher is not without a chance if forgiven a dismal effort on the Polytrack last time. Welsh Inlet will need more after winning at Brighton last month but Regal Approval has slipped down the weights and won her maiden here last summer.

After a DrWho marathon on our local PBS station last year, my husband said the only thing he wanted for X-mas or his birthday ever again was a real Dr who scarf. So when my local yarn store sent me a birthday 10% off coupon this year, after making a year of excuses, I took the plunge and bought the yarn. That was in September--I finally started in late October. It hasn't been my only project--I do much of my knitting on my bus ride to work and The Scarf quickly became unmanageable for the bus--but I've tried to do a little every day and its now looking like I just might, maybe finish by Christmas.
I was a bit of a coward and didn't go for the biggest version [season12, I believe]. I'm doing the season 14 scarf which is missing some nice big hunks. And I am not doing a straight knit--in my limited experience, it would be likely to pull quickly out of shape given size and weight so I am knitting one way and purling the other. Also, I am slipping stitches on each end to make a nicer edge. I am using Brown sheep Lamb's pride yarn and size 7 needles. I chose the colors using the famous DrWho scarf site but my yarn store didn't carry the exact type of sport weight yarn given on the site. They were kind enough to give me the color chart and let me figure out what was what. Last thought for now, it was a daunting amount of yarn to purchase but to my surprise, there is an awful lot left. I'm not sure the amounts listed on the site instructions are accurate. When I finish, I will be sure to list exactly how much I used.

According to the Corporation of National & Community Service, 1 in 4 Americans volunteer in their community while 2/3 spend time helping their neighbors. Everyone knows how volunteering helps the community, but few people think about the personal benefits of volunteering.
- Volunteering Links You to Others within Your Community
Volunteering helps you make new friends and contacts, as well as increasing your social and relationship skills. One of the best ways to create and maintain friendships is to participate in a shared activity together.
- Volunteering is Beneficial to Your Mind & Body
It's no secret that volunteering is beneficial to the community, however it can also have a huge impact on your physical and emotional health. As you help others, you're creating a natural sense of accomplishment which can boost your confidence, self-esteem and give you a sense of purpose. It can also help you stay healthy through physical activity. Volunteering in parks, nature reserves or beaches helps the environment, but it also can lessen symptoms of chronic pain (not to mention give you a beautiful view!).
- Volunteering Can Advance Your Career
Volunteering can help you gain experience in your ideal field – plus you can network within the organization and make professional contacts. Volunteering also gives you the opportunity to practice important skills used in the many professions such as teamwork, communication, problem solving, project & task management, and organization. It also gives you the opportunity to work in a job field without making a long-term commitment.
In a press release, CEO of the Corporation for National and Community Service Wendy Spencer said, "We are calling on Americans to volunteer in their communities, and to invite their friends and families to join them. Volunteers enrich our communities and keep our nation strong. Service also connects us with our neighbors and provides a chance to use our skills for the common good. There are so many ways we can make a difference for those in need, during the holiday season and throughout the entire year."
If you're looking to volunteer but don't know where to start, take a look at the Corporation for National and Community Service's "Volunteer Opportunity Finder". It asks you to include your location and personal volunteer interests (ex. 9/11, Disaster Preparation, Veterans, Elderly, or Homeless) and it will find organizations and causes within your community.

I am not a huge politics buff; but I have been around since the Reagan Administration and all I can remember from his term in office is that "government cheese", the "War On Drugs", and the influx of drugs in my neighborhood occurred concurrently.
I remember the first Iraq War during President Bush Sr.'s first term. I remember President Clinton's term taught me what it meant to "impeach" a president. We still remember President Bush Jr.'s reign as a baby dictator, like a Freddy Krueger nightmare, so there is no need to expound on what I remember from his term.
I say all of this to say..that I feel for President Obama. Here this man is trying to clean up all of the mess and restore dignity and humanity to democracy and everyone has something bad to say. We all know why he is getting the bulk of this disdain. At the same time the people who supported him in the beginning should still be supporting him now. He has not let me down as a president. He is one of the only presidents in my lifetime that actually seems like he has human interest in mind over personal gain.
Elections are less than five weeks away. The beauty of the technological age is that you don't have to go too far to do research. Lets research who is running for office to represent us.We need to elect officials that will align themselves with the work that needs to be done!
Walking n Chewing Bubble Gum
There is a saying that goes like "he/she can't walk and chew bubblegum @ the same time. In lamens terms that means that he/she has poor multitasking skills.
Driving here in Atlanta can be a task. I have found that many times people are trying to text and drive at the same time. There are people who are even horrible drivers when talking on the phone. I am often floored @ the carelessness people exhibit when they are on the phone and driving
" I can text and drive", many people may say; hogwash I say..There are so many people that cannot walk and chew bubblegum so what makes them think that they can actually communicate via cellphone and drive?
I am really sick of this epedemic. I am a great multitasker and when I am driving I respect the fact that this machine needs my undivided attention. When will we as people take our lives and the lives of others more seriously? 5,500 people died in 2009 in car accidents that involved texting while driving and talking while driving. Since this is relatively a new issue there could possibly be more related deaths that are going unnoticed.
To whom much is given much is required. We have so much technology, but we need to also be responsible when incorporating it in our everyday lives.. Sound off.! Am I tripping or do I have a valid point?
If I see another woman in those damn leggings without at least a shirt that covers their behind I am gonna scream! I thought that last years fad would have gone away. What has occured since their debut again is pure tragedy.
I was at a pretty popular hood club here in Atlanta(East Point technically speaking) called Central Station. I began to see drolls of young women of all sizes wearing the see through leggings. Some of them had on ripped up leggings, some had on sheer lace ones. If you are getting the mental picture of foolish and mayhem then I guess I am conveying what I saw correctly. I have never seen such wrongness in one place. When I go out I barely want to see the scantily clad outfits let alone a bunch of girls in leggings that were never created for them to be worn as pants. So the next time you see a disturbing display of a woman in leggings please rest assure that you are not alone in your dismay. Tell the offenders " girl bye" and maybe eventually they will actually put some real pants on!
It was a nice sunny September day. I was looking forward to seeing Sista Soulja on campus that day. I walked into the post office on campus to check my P.O. box as usual. I remember the clerk saying in a somber voice…"I dont think you guys are having class today." I asked "why" in a perplexed voice. The clerk looked at me in awe and replied:"You havent heard what happened?" The clerk began to explain what occurred. I began to stroll back to my room thinking that the situation couldn't be that bad because this type of thing never occurs on American soil. I turned on my television and thus began the change of times as I knew it. I realized that as a sophmore in college I was becoming a young woman in a world that would never ever be the same after 9/11. Tell me about how you felt when you recieved the news.

First-time owners are buying guns in record numbers, but finding that loading that gun is difficult, if not impossible.
Retailers just can't keep bullets in stock.
"I can sell a gun, but I can't sell ammo," said Carrie Mentel, co-owner of Georgia Outdoor Sports on U.S. Highway 29 in Madison County. "Right now, I could sell just as much as I could get."
The scarcity comes from here and abroad: American firearms owners are stockpiling ammunition for self-defense, at the same time as demand for the brass, copper and lead that goes into bullets is rising in economically emerging countries like China and India.
"It's a matter of supply and demand," said Mentel.
The Hull gun shop hasn't been able to buy certain types of ammo - including popular .38- and .380-caliber cartridges - since October.
"I expect a couple of cases of .380 will arrive in a couple of days, but they'll be bought up in no time," Mentel said.
Clyde Armory Gun Shop & Law Enforcement Supply last year sold a box of 50 .38-caliber bullets for less than $10, but today they go for about $24 a box, according to Josh Smith, chief operating officer for the Bogart-based gun supplier.
"A lot of ammunition has about doubled in price just over the past six months," Smith said.
Some casual shooters now are buying equipment to reload their spent cartridges, according to Mentel.
Clyde Armory and other shops saw a sharp uptick in gun sales in the weeks and months leading up to Barack Obama's election in November.
The then-candidate promised he would reinstate a ban on assault-style weapons that expired in 2004. That led to an explosion in semiautomatic weapons sales at places like Clyde Armory, which still has back-orders for some kinds of firearms.
Though some people fear they'll lose their Second Amendment right to bear arms, others simply live in fear, according to Mentel.
"A lot of people we're seeing have no previous experience with guns," Mentel said. "They're also buying guns for their wives and daughters. A lot of it is they knew someone who had their house broken into and they are worried about their safety."

It is terrible! He has no calf muscles so he shouln't of even attempted to pull it off. The last complaint is his K-swiss clothes. I bet he gets pretty good money for endorsing them and all but the clothes are not that great looking...especially on him. Does anybody else feel the same way I do? If so please speak up!

Detalii loc de munca - all over UK
Descrierea jobului - U.K.
The RMO job is the best and safest way to get into the British healthcare system. You can earn between £1,400 to £1,810 per week worked ! The RMO plays a vital role in the medical industry - it is a position of challenges and rewards. The job description varies depending on the individual needs of the hospitals, but the main task for a RMO is risk management. This entails recognizing and assessing a change in a patient's condition and communicating that to the consultant in charge of the patient. The RMO is also responsible for leading the "crash team" in the event of a cardiac arrest situation. The RMO is expected to take total charge of the situation and advise the other clinicians on what action to take. As a RMO, you will deal largely with patients in a post-surgical setting. In every task though, you'll be supported by a close-working nursing team.
1. Graduation with a recognised medical degree, obtained following 6 years of study 2. A minimum of 2 years of relevant post-qualification experience at the time of application, typically comprising 1 year as a House Officer (HO) or equivalent and at least 1 year as a Senior House Officer (SHO) or equivalent. 3. Post-qualification experience should include an absolute minimum of 6 months surgery and 6 months medicine. 4. Relevant experience should fall into the following categories: General surgery, Orthopaedic surgery, General Medicine, Accident & Emergency. 5. Paediatrics is an essential requirement for a significant number of clients and for these a minimum of 6 months must be demonstrated. This should have been gained within the last 3 years. Doctors who have only worked with paediatrics and who therefore do not have significant experience with adults in the recent past will not be accepted. 6. Experience gained within Medical Oncology, including the administration of chemotherapy is a distinct advantage. 7. Must have perform minimum 400 cannulations, 400 blood takings, 50 male catheterisations and interpreted a minimum of 200 ECGs. 8. Fluent spoken and written English. 9. ALS and EPLS plus full GMC registration. Our agency can help you with this registration. The RMOs ordinarily work week on, week off (1:1) rotations. Whilst some variations on this pattern are in operation, it is felt that 1:1 rotations offer the safest working conditions for the doctors within the hospitals, whilst providing the doctors with consolidated blocks of work to minimise their need to travel. The hospitals that operate 1:1 rotations provide free on-duty accommodation and meals, and internet access is provided to doctors. Salary: £38,000-£63,240 per annum Opportunities available throughout the UK!

I gave it a shot but I might have broken the game...
I'm Okay
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
This is a game based on depression in a young male. You play as Ty, a 16 year old going through his daily life. You have the choice to interact with Ty's mum and friends and throughout these conversations Ty's emotions begin to unfold. Ty's depression is an ongoing journey from when his father left without warning.
The game navigation is simple as you move the character through the game using arrow keys to move from room to room, and space bar or left click to interact with the other characters in each room. As you travel through the rooms, you are accompanied by a scribbled figure. The scribble figure represents his depression being with him at all times.
This is essentially a 'not game' or 'arts game'. It is based on a progressive story line where you have to travel to the end to get the full story.

Hi there! thank you for your feedback, it's much appreciated!:) The game slows down to start drawing on ideas of depression and that he doesn't want to interact with the kids at school. At the last part of the video if you continue to go back using the left key the game continues :)

For me Batiste has to be the holy grail of hair products! It really is my ultimate saviour! I'm extremely low maintenance when it comes to hair, you won't find me slapping this product and that product over it. I'm a simple shampoo and condition girl with the occasional 3mm from Aussie.
However Batiste is one product I couldn't live without. My hair length is way down my back now meaning daily washing is a bit of a pain, so dry shampoo is my saviour!
As you can imagine using dry shampoo around 3 times a week means its a regular purchase for me so I love that batiste are regularly adding new fragrances to their range. The newest being "Cherry" I was so excited when I heard of it's release and couldn't wait to try it to see how it fared with the others.
Like the others a quick spritz of this rubbed in and brushed through leaves your hair grease-free and shiny. The smell is to die for, a lovely almost creamy cherry-fragrance that isn't sickly, thankfully has no hint of coconut and last all through the day.
The Batiste fragrances never cease to impress me, I've tried all fragrances and love them all bar Tropical as I'm not one for a coconut scent. In addition to the plethora of scents provided, the cans are becoming increasingly eye catching, first the leopard-print design of Wild and now a lovely kitsch cherry design that Batiste say is "inspired by their latest love of vintage-glamour".
I find the design to be very Cath Kidston-esque, and when I was sent this can to try from the lovely people at Batiste I was delighted to find a Cath Kids birdcage brolly emblazoned with Cherries.
Sorry for the picture - weather has been less than pleasant for outdoor photos and I'm too superstitious to open a brolly indoors :p
With all these lovely fragrances I'm finding it increasingly hard to pick a favourite. I also can't wait to see what Batiste have up their sleeve for the future!
Batiste Cherry is available in 200ml cans for £2.99 from Superdrug, Boots, Tesco, Asda, Wilkinsons, Waitrose, Saver and Lloyds Chemist
Note - This product was sent to me for review but my views are honest and in no way influenced.

November is here which means we can finally look forward to pleasant weather and pull out those jackets and scarves that we've been waiting to wear all year round. Here's the best time to experiment with light layers which are perfect for the season and are pretty stylish. From duster coats to pairing your favourite midi dress with a t-shirt, layering can be absolutely fun. Reinventing your wardrobe and experimenting is key while you style an outfit this season and it doesn't really mean you need to splurge on a new wardrobe.
Here are a few inspired looks that you could take cues from.

Download Management of MRSA infection following surgery (11HDC01438) (PDF 39Kb)
(11HDC01438, 21 June
Plastic surgeon ~ Breast reduction surgery ~ Information
~Informed consent ~ Post-operative care ~ MRSA ~ Care coordination
~ Documentation ~ Rights 4(1), 4(2), 4(5), 6(1)(f)
A woman consulted a plastic surgeon to discuss breast reduction
surgery. She told the plastic surgeon of her concerns about
post-operative infection. The plastic surgeon allayed all of her
fears and gave her confidence that she would have nothing to worry
about, and she proceeded with the surgery.
Post-operatively, the woman developed infections in her wounds.
She telephoned the plastic surgeon's clinic and advised a nurse
that she was nauseous and feeling hot and cold. The plastic surgeon
instructed the woman to discontinue her antibiotics. The woman
continued to feel ill and became increasingly concerned. She
presented at the clinic and consulted with either the plastic
surgeon and/or his nurse on five occasions over a two week period.
During that time, the woman was prescribed an oral antibiotic, an
antibiotic ointment, and swabs of her wounds were taken.
The swabs cultured Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA) and Staphylococcus aureus. There is no evidence that the
woman was informed that she had MRSA, or that her general
practitioner was informed. The woman presented at the clinic the
following week, and the plastic surgeon reviewed her wound and
instructed her to return in three weeks' time. When the woman
phoned the clinic two and a half weeks later, she was told that the
plastic surgeon was not available, and she was referred to the
District Nurse. The District Nurse was also not advised that the
woman had MRSA.
It was held that it was more likely than not that the woman and
the plastic surgeon discussed the risk of infection at the first
consultation. However, in attempting to allay the woman's concerns
about the procedure, it appears that the plastic surgeon may have
understated that risk. He did not take sufficient care to ensure
that the woman's expectations in that regard were appropriately
managed, particularly given her experience and expressed concerns
in relation to infection. It was recommended that he review his
practice and take greater care in the future when discussing the
risks of surgery with patients.
The plastic surgeon should have reviewed the woman more closely
when it was known that her wound swab had cultured MRSA. He did not
provide post-operative services to the woman with reasonable care
and skill, and breached Right 4(1).
The plastic surgeon breached Right 6(1)(f) for failing to inform
the woman of the results of the swabs and that she had MRSA. He
also breached Right 4(5) for failing to inform her general
practitioner and the district nurse that the woman had MRSA, which
was information they required to ensure her ongoing care was
The plastic surgeon's record-keeping in this case was incomplete
and inadequate, and a breach of Right 4(2).

Jonathan Press Mystery digest (J36, Sept. 21, 1948), reprinted two Dashiell Hammett stories, "The Big Knock-Over" and "$106,000 Blood Money," combining them to appear as a single novel-length feature. "Blood Money" is noted on the cover, but simply begins as Chapter Fifteen of the The Big Knock-Over novel.
Here's the opening:
"I found Paddy the Mex in Jean Larrouy's dive.
"Paddy—an amiable con man who looked like the King of Spain—showed me his big white teeth in a smile, pushed a chair out for me with one foot, and told the girl who shared his table:
"'Nellie, meet the biggest-hearted dick in San Francisco. This little fat guy will do anything for anybody, if only he can send 'em over for life in the end.' He turned to me, waving his cigar at the girl: 'Nellie Wade, and you can't get anything on her. She don't have to work—her old man's a bootlegger.'"
The indicia inside notes: "These mysteries are sometimes reprinted in full, but more often they are cut to speed up the story—always, of course, with the permission of the author or his publisher. This mystery has not been cut."

Location-based social networks serve as a source of data for a wide range of applications, from recommendation of places to visit to modelling of city traffic, and urban planning. One of the basic problems in all these areas is the formulation of a predictive model for the location of a certain user at a certain time. In this paper, we propose a new approach for predicting user location, which uses two components to make the prediction, based on (i) coordinates and times of user check-ins and (ii) social interaction between different users. We improve the performance of a state-of-the art model using the radiation model of spatial choice and a social component based on the frequency of matching check-ins of user's friends. Friendship is defined by the presence of reciprocal following on Twitter. Our empirical results highlight an improvement over the state-of-the-art in terms of accuracy, and suggest practical solutions for spatio-temporal and socially-inspired prediction of user location. © 2013 ACM.

Elevation error in the Intermap X-band airborne Interfero-metric Synthetic Aperture Radar DTM data set is defined in a 260-hectare mixed land-cover area using external dual-frequency GPS and bare-earth lidar point-cloud validation data. Absolute elevation error is reported globally, and within land-cover classes characterized by distinctive vegetation canopy densities and depths that are considered to have the potential to affect X-band DTM elevation error in distinctive ways. Observed global and land-cover specific elevation errors are subsequently compared with an external study where land-cover dependent errors were quantified within four lidar data sets that overlapped the IFSAR DTM validation area. The results of these absolute and comparative results are subsequently used to make recommendations regarding the potential of Intermap bare-earth IFSAR DTM data in environmental modeling applications elsewhere, and the scope for using the data in conjunction with, and as an alternative to airborne lidar data is discussed. © 2013 American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing.

The current generation of Mobile Mapping Systems (MMSs) capture high density spatial data in a short time-frame. The quantity of data is difficult to predict as there is no concrete understanding of the point density that different scanner configurations and hardware settings will exhibit for objects at specific distances. Obtaining the required point density impacts survey time, processing time, data storage and is also the underlying limit of automated algorithms. This paper details a novel method for calculating point and profile information for terrestrial MMSs which are required for any point density calculation. Through application of algorithms utilising 3D surface normals and 2D geometric formulae, the theoretically optimal profile spacing and point spacing are calculated on targets. Both of these elements are a major factor in calculating point density on arbitrary objects, such as road signs, poles or buildings-all important features in asset management surveys. © 2014 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.

The current generation of Mobile Mapping Systems (MMSs) capture increasingly larger amounts of data in a short time frame. Due to the relative novelty of this technology there is no concrete understanding of the point density that different hardware configurations and operating parameters will exhibit on objects at specific distances. Depending on the project requirements, obtaining the required point density impacts on survey time, processing time, data storage and is the underlying limit of automated algorithms. A limited understanding of the capabilities of these systems means that defining point density in project specifications is a complicated process. We are in the process of developing a method for determining the quantitative resolution of point clouds collected by a MMS with respect to known objects at specified distances. We have previously demonstrated the capabilities of our system for calculating point spacing, profile angle and profile spacing individually. Each of these elements are a major factor in calculating point density on arbitrary objects, such as road signs, poles or buildings -all important features in asset management surveys. This paper will introduce the current version of the MobIle Mapping point densIty Calculator (MIMIC), MIMIC's visualisation module and finally discuss the methods employed to validate our work. © 2012 ACM.

Changes in phenology are indicators of climate change. Urban land use influences local climates through mechanisms such as urban heat island (UHI) effects. This research examined the spatio-temporal variations in first flowering with changes in urban land use in England and Wales. It used standard ordinary least squares (OLSs) regressions and geographically weighted regressions (GWRs) to analyse changes in phenophase observation date between 1934 and 2007 for three tree species. The OLS models suggested that first flowering was getting earlier: blackthorn by 0.28 days per year, hawthorn by 0.16 days per year and horse chestnut by 0.13 days per year. These rates were found to vary spatially when GWR was used and the greatest rates of change were found to be highly localized. The addition of land use change was found to improve the model fit and suggested that a 10% increase in urban land use was also associated with phenophase advancement of 1.20 days for blackthorn, 0.57 days for hawthorn and 0.90 days for horse chestnut. When the impacts of urban land use changes was analysed using GWR, the associations with phenophase advancement were found to vary spatially, strongest associations were generally more pronounced in the north and especially in the extreme south-west and the north for all species. The results of this research suggest that the impacts of climate changes and the effects of urban land use changes on phenology vary spatially and that the impacts of urban expansion, such as UHI effects, may not be uniform. These findings suggest the need for spatially explicit analyses to quantify the local impacts and drivers of climate changes and their associated feedbacks. © 2014 Royal Meteorological Society.

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) data-sets are seeing increasing use in geology, geomorphology, forestry and urban mapping. The ease of use, affordability and operational flexibility of TLS suggest that demand for it is likely to increase in large-scale mapping studies. However, its advantages may remain restricted to specific environments, because of difficulties in defining bare-ground level in the presence of ground-level vegetation. This paper seeks to clarify the component contributions to TLS elevation error deriving from vegetation occlusion, scan co-registration error, point cloud georeferencing error and target position definition in TLS point cloud data. A multi-scan single-returns TLS point cloud data-set of very high resolution (∼250points/m2) was acquired for an 11 hectare area of open, substantially flat and 100% vegetated coastal saltmarsh, providing data for the empirical quantification of TLS error. Errors deriving from the sources discussed are quantified, clarifying the potential proportional contribution of vegetation to other error sources. Initial data validation is applied to the TLS point cloud data after application of a local-lowest-point selection process, and repeat validation tests are applied to the resulting filtered point cloud after application of a kriging-based error adjustment and data fusion with GPS. The final results highlight the problem of representing bare ground effectively within TLS data captured in the presence of dense ground vegetation and clarify the component contributions of elevation error deriving from surveying and data processing. © 2011 The Authors.

Michael's right in his post.According to Chip Hunnicut (a descendent of Jean Killian) William Lawing came to Pennsylvania in 1748 at age 18, from Wales (most were either Presbyterian or Baptist).We know he received land grants in North Carolina in 1761 and moved there,along with his inlaws the Killian family...
Also, Andreas Killian might have been Lutheran (we know he came from the Palatinate in Germany which was predominantly Lutheran) but since the only church around the Catawba River area was Presbyterian, he might've switched just to belong...

The much awaited India-Australia Test series has ended and as expected, we witnessed the tensest series in recent times. Everyone was predicting India's victory and they were correct, but it was not that easy what it seems like.
Though, throughout this series, former Australian players were very consistent over criticizing Indian captain Virat Kohli. Meanwhile, CA CEO James Sutherland said that he is not sure whether Kohli can spell sorry or not.
The round of comments hasn't stopped yet and latest one came from former speedster Mitchell Johnson, who retweeted on Cricket Australia's tweet.
When the match was over, Cricket Australia shared a tweet, which said: "It seems Virat Kohli and the Aussies are no longer mates".

Johnson retweeted this post and wrote:
Rahane should stay captain! It was a tough series but I believe it should stay on the field with the players https://t.co/jtM7V9eIAm— Mitchell Johnson (@MitchJohnson398) March 28, 2017
His tweet hinted Australia's dislike for Kohli, while on the other hand, Johnson credited Rahane's captaincy for this win.
Ajinkya Rahane led India in the fourth Test and registered a victory by eight wickets.

High intensity training will burn calories longer and help maintain muscle.
Weight Training
Weight training is the primary way to preserve for women Over 40. The more muscle you have, the more calories you will burn, even at rest.
Lifting weight consistently will help increase bone density while improving muscle mass, strength and balance in post-menopausal women.
But the problem is: we're afraid to lift. We don't want bulk and we don't want injury!
Cardio Training
Cardiovascular exercise promotes heart health for women Over 40.
It's an important component in managing menopausal symptoms and many age related issues.
Cardio improves heart health, boosts metabolism, manages glucose levels and activates good hormones.
It's good for your health as well as to reduce overall body fat. The key is this: don't do too much!
High Intensity Interval Training is cardio done at higher intensities for shorter periods of time.
HIIT training helps you maintain and build muscle which is critical for weight loss.
With HIIT programs, the intensity bursts are challenging, but they are short and effective.
The beauty of it is: you can lose fat safely and efficiently, even Over 40!

Programming is about sequencing exercises so they meet an objective, but also to manipulate fatigue and reduce the risk of injury. The following outlines some of our short term and medium goals and some of the programming structure we will use to deliver you the fitness you want. This is less about whats actually in a class, more as to how it arrives there.
Objectives for June
1)We want to put pacing runs on your agenda By the end of June, you need to know what your 400m pace and time is, and commit to run it consistently. A 400m in a WOD is no longer a staggered recovery run, it's a paced piece of in-control work. As the months roll by we will be developing our pacing and aerobic capacity, so be prepared to record times, use heart rate monitors, and focus on those runs. Long term, we have decided that we would like most clients to run 1600 meters in 6 minutes (means 400m in 90 seconds, 800m in 180 seconds, 200m in 45 seconds, 100m in 23 seconds.)
2) Underpinning leg strength is crucial. In June your task will be to discover and consolidate a 5 rep deadlift, back and front squat. We don't want people lifting emotionally and screaming reps up, as much fun as it is. For June we want calm, effective consistent work. Once you know and own this figure, we will be adding a lot of variance. June is consistent, solid, good quality work. Anthony is in the wings preparing to add fantastic variation to our strength work from the end of June. Don't let him down. When our coaches try and tailor strength components for you, they will need to know how many times you can lift a bar effectively 5 times. For some, this will be the same as a 5 rep max, for others as the time allowed may only be 10 or 15 minutes, its the best 5 you can do in the time allocated
We will ask you to do work on your pistol (1-legged squat) and you'll be learning the balance and technique of the Bulgarian squat.
3) Underpinning arm strength in Crossfit training is crucial. Once you have your pull up and dips, weighted versions, combined with shooting for max unweighted reps, will prepare you for most WODs and most moves. They are foundational for handstand push-ups and the muscle up. We have tricks, and controlled negatives for those still developing arm strength.
4) Skills. Like it or not, CrossFit demands you learn certain skills. You must know how to kip (both pull ups and T2B), you must double-under and pistol. Our experience (as the first ever CrossFit affiliate in the UK) shows us that short, regular, quick practice is the key to achieving these skills. Obviously we have our skill classes to consolidate practice and mastery. I think we are about to develop a 1.9/1.10 as part of our beginner process to deal with kipping, double-under, pistol and muscle up progressions. This is under discussion
6) The programme for the next few months is structured around achieving good performances in 4 benchmark workouts. Spaced, about 3 to 4 weeks apart. The 4 are:
Fran, Elizabeth, 30 muscle ups for time, Fight Gone Bad.
In the weeks running up to these workouts we will experiment and develop the specific components. As an overview, if you take a move, say thrusters you need to do them a) lighter for volume b) your Fran weight, for volume, c) Dumbell versions, d) a Tabata test, e) heavier thrusters.
Crucially you need a strategy. Are you using one now e.g. do you break thrusters (whatever) into sets of 7, 5 and 3 with rest. Tim tells me one of the fire breathers can do 36 in a row!
After much consultation, with more to follow, we hear that those who want to follow a structured programme want 1 clear day's rest between working shoulders, and no more than 2 consecutive days in a row working squats. Indeed, those with poor shoulder have begged for a no shoulder day!
We will produced a matrix that consists of 4 rotating days
All elements (blue)
No shoulder (pink)
No squats (green)
Off programme (yellow)
For those wanting a "programme" The 3 day on / 1 day off the programme mirrors the original, and still current, CrossFit prescription.
Using this as a structure you find that, as far as our basic strength prescription goes:
Blue day (all elements) will always have an Olympic lift. Alternating between the snatch and clean and jerk.
Pink days ( No shoulder)will alternate between back squat + deadlift, and front squat + Bulgarian split
Green days: (No Squat) Overhead pressing (press, push press, push jerk)
Yellow: Off-programme, anything goes ( or catch up if there is space)
To further explore this ideas,
Blue day (all elements) will also seek to develop your kip ability
Pink day (no shoulder) your pistol and double-unders
Green day ( no squats) your handstand ability ( everything from lying on the floor in a dish shape mobilising wrists, modest wall walks to kicking up, handstand push ups and handstand walking drills)
Yellow day: Off programme, rest day for those committing to the 3 day programme, "wild card" for everyone else, a great WOD, some unusual strength, fascinating skills and using those bits of kit unique to the gym space you are in
To further explore this:
Blue day (all elements) will also strengthen your pull-ups: think, as a starting point, weighted pull ups, 3,3,3,3,3. Green days ( no squats) will include weighted dips 3,3, 3, 3, 3 ( these will soon vary and include max effort unweighted attempts You know you need to slice through 50 pulls ups/dips to get a great workout. This regime gets you there.
To make it clear, each day, including Off Programme day, has a fantastic session with some skill, some strength and a great WOD. You can come as and when you like. This simply gives us a programming structure for those who want it . If you simply come 1, 2 or 3 times a week , there will be a great session waiting for you.

SHE'S the daughter of an African country's president. She studied in London. She bought assets in Portugal.
And now, according to Forbes, at age 40, she has become Africa's first woman billionaire.
Meet Isabel Dos Santos - the daughter of Angolan President Jose Eduardo Dos Santos.
She took engineering at London's King's College, before returning to Angola and opening a restaurant called Miami's Beach.
But she really made her pile with some shrewd investments in Portugal, where she owns a nearly 30 per cent stake in ZON Multimedia, the country's last cable network.
In addition to that $385 million share, and a seat on the company's board, Ms Dos Santos owns one-fifth of the publicly traded bank Banco BPI, worth nearly $470 million.
It's also reported she owns stakes in Unitel, a major mobile phone network in Angola, and Angola's Banco BIC.
An expert in African affairs at Johns Hopkins University says it's difficult to explain her accumulation of wealth.
"It's clear through documented work that the ruling party and the President's inner circle have a lot of business interests," he told Forbes.
"The source of funds and corporate governance are very murky."
"The central problem in Angola is the complete lack of transparency. We can't trace the provenance of these funds."

Vigala Code Camps
Vigala Code Camps are a series of Python programming camps taking place in Vigala as part of the Europe Code Week initiative. The next camp will be in October 2016 (exact dates to be confirmed). Contact us as soon as you consider participating. Exact agenda and conditions are worked out with the participants.
The one to five days lasting camps feature a unique location in a small Estonian village between forests and bogs. Participants are suggested a maximum of six computer hours per day. The remaining programme consists in social and touristic activities.
We offer camps for both experienced and aspiring programmers. Beginners will learn the Python programming language from scratch. Experienced developers will learn how to use the Lino framework. Participants need their own desktop computer. We will be working in a mixture of short lessons and pair programming sessions.
Main speaker at the camps is Luc Saffre, an experienced Python programmer. We invite and welcome assistants and other speakers to help us increase diversity.
Vigala Code Camps are organized by Rumma & Ko OÜ because we believe that sharing our expert knowledge at low cost will help the Lino community to grow and our society to become more free.
