The Game Of America's Founding Fathers
Beyond NYCBeyond USA May 11, 2010 admin 0
By Lloyd Jodah
Cricket author and historian David Sentance raised the alert on an urgent situation. In Los Angeles "the Encino Neighborhood Council opened a public forum about expanding the sanitation plant to take out 2 of America's best cricket pitches at Woodley."
The Woodley Cricket Field is really named the Leo Magnus Cricket Complex, and is located in Woodley Park in the Van Nuys district of Los Angeles. Former West Indies Test cricketer Franklin Rose said "It has the best cricket field facilities in the US". Woodley is good enough to have hosted India and Australia in 1999 for 4 One Day matches.
Former USA Under 19 World Cup player, and American College Cricket star Akeem Dodson speaks fondly of the ground, "The first time I played there I made 80-something, I later made a couple of 70's, Woodley is beautiful".
Many cricketers in the USA have played at Woodley Cricket Fields. It has 4 turf wickets and large outfields – the only other comparable cricket facility in North America is probably King City, Ontario, Canada.
Woodley came into being when cricket lost Griffith Park. Cricket was played at Griffith Park from 1933 to 1978. Many Hollywood celebrities played, and attended cricket matches at Griffith Park, and in the 1930's it was a place for Hollywood celebrities to be seen, somewhat like the Lakers' Staples Center of Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant eras.
Then the Equestrian community, buoyed by the fact that for the 1984 Olympics equestrian and polo events were scheduled for the area, lobbied for Griffith Park to be turned over to them. Cricket lost that fight, and was moved to what is now Woodley. Cricket's big mistake in not being an Olympic sport haunts it every day, but that's a conversation for another time.
The California and USA cricket community must act effectively to ensure that we do NOT lose this fight too.
Every one of us is a constituent who pays taxes – we must speak up about what's important to us. "People of a cricket background" in the USA comprise an affluent, highly educated professional demographic – some communities recognize our value whilst others treat us like a marginal fringe element. We must address this.
Cricket is not only a part of who we are, but it's a part of what America is. As the original American game, cricket was played by the Founding Fathers like George Washington and John Adams. In fact our head of state is called a "President" because John Adams, in the discussion about what to call the head of the newly independent USA, said "if cricket clubs can have Presidents then these United States can have a President."
Let us remind the Encino Neighborhood Council civilly, legally and professionally, that whilst they are considering destroying 2 cricket fields at Woodley other communities are creating or improving cricket Fields. In NYC, for example, 2 major new fields dedicated to cricket only were opened in 2009. New York City even has a High School League of 28 school teams, in its 3rd year and the NYPD has a cricket League for young men, as part of its Community Outreach.
How few people played Golf before Tiger Woods? Yet it was on Primetime TV constantly and millions of acres of land were set aside for golf. Regardless of what anyone, in or out of the cricket community, thinks of who plays cricket, we must not allow anyone to devalue what we do.
Cricket played in the USA has a value because people play it, regardless of their color, ethnic background or country of origin.
We are NOT "expatriates" playing a "foreign game" – we are playing an American game, and if we happen to be American (as many of us are). We can vote, and we should. WE can speak up, and we should. WE can email, and we should.

Orioles combine to blank Rays for first shutout
Gonzalez aided by small ball, stellar D; Britton provides strong relief
BALTIMORE -- With a tough road trip looming, including stops in Boston and Toronto, the Orioles took care of another divisional opponent on Wednesday afternoon at Camden Yards to ensure their first winning homestand this season.
Baltimore used a pair of dribblers, a fantastic diving catch for a double play and some stout relief pitching to top the Rays, 3-0, and record the team's first shutout. The win put the O's at 3-2 on the five-game homestand and moved them back to .500 (7-7) after a rough opening week.
"It's good momentum we have as a club," Adam Jones, who suited up at designated hitter Wednesday despite being sick Tuesday, said of the rain-shortened series win.
"The starters are going out there and setting the tone," said Jones. "It's not about the hitters, it's about the starting pitchers setting the tone, and we follow suit. In the last two games, the starters and then our bullpen comes in and shuts them down."
Lefty Zach Britton, who turned in a season-high three innings after starter Miguel Gonzalez, ran his scoreless streak to 11 1/3 innings in an impressive display.
"It was huge," closer Tommy Hunter, who picked up his fourth save, said of Britton's outing. "It's fun to see when you see guys who have a game plan and have an idea what they want to do and then they actually do it. It's a lot of conviction he has right now. He's throwing the ball with a lot of confidence, and I hope it continues."
Britton, who retired the side in order in the sixth, pitched out of a bases-load jam in the following inning. After a one-out walk and a pair of singles, including Jose Molina's ball scooting by him on the mound, Britton got Ben Zobrist to ground out to nab the lead runner and struck out Wil Myers. He also navigated through a 1-2-3 eighth.
"He's in a good place right now, and you can see it. Presentation-wise as much as physically," manager Buck Showalter said.
"We had other people who could pitch, just the situation it puts you in a nice little rocking chair sometimes when you got a left-handed pitcher who can defend himself against right-handed hitters," said Showalter. "And that comes from his starting background some, too. He's got a pretty good sinker."
The difference in Britton, who made the team's Opening Day bullpen after an impressive spring, has been going back on the weighted ball program to strengthen his shoulder this offseason. The added velocity has given him more confidence to come out of the bullpen firing.
"His command for the sinker, I think being able to throw it for a strike as well as when it runs out of the zone is big for him," catcher Matt Wieters said of Britton's success. "I know this spring he took a lot of pride in working on that and trying to get it the way he could command it."
The O's offense, which went down nine in a row following Nick Markakis' leadoff single, got things going off Rays starter Jake Odorizzi in the fourth, loading the bases with no outs. Nelson Cruz worked a leadoff walk and after Chris Davis singled, Jones beat out a bunt to third base, making good use of Evan Longoria playing deep.
"Sometimes you've just got to be able to use your legs," said Jones who was scratched from playing the field prior to the game. "You're not always going to be able to swing the bat to the best of your ability or the way you would like to. So, in certain situations it's smart to drop a bunt down and get your timing back."
Wieters drove in the first run, sending a 2-2 pitch into the deepest part of the park for a sacrifice fly. J.J. Hardy's grounder back to the mound went by Odorizzi, who, upon recovering it, was forced to go to first base to allow the O's a second run.
The Orioles loaded the bases again with two outs in the fifth, and Jones hit a swinging bunt that Longoria waited to trickle foul. But it never did, allowing Ryan Flaherty to score to make it 3-0.
"Adam posting up, period. That's hard to do," Showalter said. "You look at the way this [flu-like] thing's going on around the game. Most people aren't playing the next day in a day game. That's another testament to Adam. His effort level every day, it's hard to do what he does."
The trio of runs was plenty for the Orioles' arms, with Hunter closing it down in the ninth. Gonzalez set the tone for the pitching early, stranding at least one baserunner in each of the first four innings, and he was helped greatly by a fantastic double play by Markakis in right field.
With runners on first and second and one out, Markakis made a diving catch on Desmond Jennings' fading liner, getting up and firing to shortstop Hardy at second base to also nab James Loney and end the inning.
Gonzalez needed 81 pitches over that span. While he was able to keep Tampa Bay off the board, he exited after allowing three hits and three walks over five innings in favor of Britton.
"I think as the weather warms up, Miggy's only going to get better," Showalter said of Gonzalez, who has been unable to go over six innings in his first three starts and has had the hard luck of dealing with some unfortunate climates. "Maybe by, what, July, it might get warm? We're going to be complaining about the heat here before too long. You know that."
Cold or not, the Orioles head to Boston following Thursday's off-day feeling pretty good after back-to-back wins that have shown encouraging signs from both the pitching and defense.
"That's good momentum we have as a club," Gonzalez said. "I think we're doing a pretty good job right now. It's exciting. We've got Boston next. We've just got to focus on that and keep throwing the ball well."
Said Rays manager Joe Maddon: "We had opportunities there [against Britton], we just let him off the hook a little bit. There were some pretty good matchups in our favor there that got away. But he got through it and they were able to scratch out the runs they needed and they beat us."

SHARE's Christmas Dinner Package includes a 4-pound Black Forest smoked ham, sweet potato patties, premium dinner rolls, and a 24-ounce fruit pie, macaroni and cheese, 1 pound each of frozen beans and corn and a 1-pound box of potato flakes. Orders are accepted online at www.midamericafoods.com. Online orders must be placed by Dec. 9 for pickup Dec. 15.
The online ordering system accepts debit and credit card payments only, but SHARE-Loaves and Fishes also accepts cash, check or money order. Orders can be placed locally by contacting the local SHARE-Loaves and Fishes volunteer team at 815-690-2606 or by calling Mid America Foods' main office toll-free at 855-832-7238 until Dec. 9.

Businesses, churches, service clubs and social service organizations also are welcome to buy dinner packages for their holiday outreach programs. Many groups raise funds and then buy holiday dinner packages through SHARE to distribute to local families in need.
SHARE's efforts to serve the community with savings on quality food would not be possible without volunteers. More help is needed during the busy holiday season, but the need exists all year long.
For information or to volunteer, call 815-690-2606.

Login and Registration Issues
Why can't I log in?
Have you registered? Seriously, you must register in order to log in. Have you been banned from the board? (A message will be displayed if you have.) If so, you should contact the webmaster or board administrator to find out why. If you have registered and are not banned and you still cannot log in then check and double-check your username and password. Usually this is the problem; if not, contact the board administrator -- they may have incorrect configuration settings for the board.
Back to top
Why do I need to register at all?
You may not have to -- it is up to the administrator of the board as to whether you need to register in order to post messages. However, registration will give you access to additional features not available to guest users such as definable avatar images, private messaging, emailing to fellow users, usergroup subscription, etc. It only takes a few minutes to register so it is recommended you do so.
Back to top
Why do I get logged off automatically?
If you do not check the
Log me in automatically
box when you log in, the board will only keep you logged in for a preset time. This prevents misuse of your account by anyone else. To stay logged in, check the box during login. This is not recommended if you access the board from a shared computer, e.g. library, internet cafe, university cluster, etc.
Back to top
How do I prevent my username from appearing in the online user listings?
In your profile you will find an option
Hide your online status
; if you switch this
you'll only appear to board administrators or to yourself. You will be counted as a hidden user.
Back to top
I've lost my password!
Don't panic! While your password cannot be retrieved it can be reset. To do this go to the login page and click
I've forgotten my password
. Follow the instructions and you should be back online in no time.
Back to top
I registered but cannot log in!
First check that you are entering the correct username and password. If they are okay then one of two things may have happened: if COPPA support is enabled and you clicked the
I am under 13 years old
link while registering then you will have to follow the instructions you received. If this is not the case then maybe your account need activating. Some boards will require all new registrations be activated, either by yourself or by the administrator before you can log on. When you registered it would have told you whether activation was required. If you were sent an email then follow the instructions; if you did not receive the email then check that your email address is valid. One reason activation is used is to reduce the possibility of
users abusing the board anonymously. If you are sure the email address you used is valid then try contacting the board administrator.
Back to top
I registered in the past but cannot log in anymore!
The most likely reasons for this are: you entered an incorrect username or password (check the email you were sent when you first registered) or the administrator has deleted your account for some reason. If it is the latter case then perhaps you did not post anything? It is usual for boards to periodically remove users who have not posted anything so as to reduce the size of the database. Try registering again and get involved in discussions.

User Preferences and settings
How do I change my settings?
All your settings (if you are registered) are stored in the database. To alter them click the
link (generally shown at the top of pages but this may not be the case). This will allow you to change all your settings.
Back to top
The times are not correct!
The times are almost certainly correct; however, what you may be seeing are times displayed in a timezone different from the one you are in. If this is the case, you should change your profile setting for the timezone to match your particular area, e.g. London, Paris, New York, Sydney, etc. Please note that changing the timezone, like most settings, can only be done by registered users. So if you are not registered, this is a good time to do so, if you pardon the pun!
Back to top
I changed the timezone and the time is still wrong!
If you are sure you have set the timezone correctly and the time is still different, the most likely answer is daylight savings time (or summer time as it is known in the UK and other places). The board is not designed to handle the changeovers between standard and daylight time so during summer months the time may be an hour different from the real local time.
Back to top
My language is not in the list!
The most likely reasons for this are either the administrator did not install your language or someone has not translated this board into your language. Try asking the board administrator if they can install the language pack you need or if it does not exist, please feel free to create a new translation. More information can be found at the phpBB Group website (see link at bottom of pages)
Back to top
How do I show an image below my username?
There may be two images below a username when viewing posts. The first is an image associated with your rank; generally these take the form of stars or blocks indicating how many posts you have made or your status on the forums. Below this may be a larger image known as an avatar; this is generally unique or personal to each user. It is up to the board administrator to enable avatars and they have a choice over the way in which avatars can be made available. If you are unable to use avatars then this is the decision of the board admin and you should ask them their reasons (we're sure they'll be good!)
Back to top
How do I change my rank?
In general you cannot directly change the wording of any rank (ranks appear below your username in topics and on your profile depending on the style used). Most boards use ranks to indicate the number of posts you have made and to identify certain users. For example, moderators and administrators may have a special rank. Please do not abuse the board by posting unnecessarily just to increase your rank -- you will probably find the moderator or administrator will simply lower your post count.
Back to top
When I click the email link for a user it asks me to log in.
Sorry, but only registered users can send email to people via the built-in email form (if the admin has enabled this feature). This is to prevent malicious use of the email system by anonymous users.

Posting Issues
How do I post a topic in a forum?
Easy -- click the relevant button on either the forum or topic screens. You may need to register before you can post a message. The facilities available to you are listed at the bottom of the forum and topic screens (the
You can post new topics, You can vote in polls, etc.
Back to top
How do I edit or delete a post?
Unless you are the board admin or forum moderator you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post (sometimes for only a limited time after it was made) by clicking the
button for the relevant post. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic that lists the number of times you edited it. This will only appear if no one has replied; it also will not appear if moderators or administrators edit the post (they should leave a message saying what they altered and why). Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied.
Back to top
How do I add a signature to my post?
To add a signature to a post you must first create one; this is done via your profile. Once created you can check the
Add Signature
box on the posting form to add your signature. You can also add a signature by default to all your posts by checking the appropriate radio box in your profile. You can still prevent a signature being added to individual posts by un-checking the add signature box on the posting form.
Back to top
How do I create a poll?
Creating a poll is easy -- when you post a new topic (or edit the first post of a topic, if you have permission) you should see a
Add Poll
form below the main posting box. If you cannot see this then you probably do not have rights to create polls. You should enter a title for the poll and then at least two options -- to set an option type in the poll question and click the
Add option
button. You can also set a time limit for the poll, 0 being an infinite amount. There will be a limit to the number of options you can list, which is set by the board administrator
Back to top
How do I edit or delete a poll?
As with posts, polls can only be edited by the original poster, a moderator, or board administrator. To edit a poll, click the first post in the topic, which always has the poll associated with it. If no one has cast a vote then users can delete the poll or edit any poll option. However, if people have already placed votes only moderators or administrators can edit or delete it; this is to prevent people rigging polls by changing options mid-way through a poll
Back to top
Why can't I access a forum?
Some forums may be limited to certain users or groups. To view, read, post, etc. you may need special authorization which only the forum moderator and board administrator can grant, so you should contact them.
Back to top
Why can't I vote in polls?
Only registered users can vote in polls so as to prevent spoofing of results. If you have registered and still cannot vote then you probably do not have appropriate access rights.

Formatting and Topic Types
What is BBCode?
BBCode is a special implementation of HTML. Whether you can use BBCode is determined by the administrator. You can also disable it on a per post basis from the posting form. BBCode itself is similar in style to HTML: tags are enclosed in square braces [ and ] rather than < and > and it offers greater control over what and how something is displayed. For more information on BBCode see the guide which can be accessed from the posting page.
Back to top
Can I use HTML?
That depends on whether the administrator allows you to; they have complete control over it. If you are allowed to use it, you will probably find only certain tags work. This is a
feature to prevent people from abusing the board by using tags which may destroy the layout or cause other problems. If HTML is enabled you can disable it on a per post basis from the posting form.
Back to top
What are Smileys?
Smileys, or Emoticons, are small graphical images which can be used to express some feeling using a short code, e.g. :) means happy, :( means sad. The full list of emoticons can be seen via the posting form. Try not to overuse smileys, though, as they can quickly render a post unreadable and a moderator may decide to edit them out or remove the post altogether.
Back to top
Can I post Images?
Images can indeed be shown in your posts. However, there is no facility at present for uploading images directly to this board. Therefore you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.some-unknown-place.net/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor to images stored behind authentication mechanisms such as Hotmail or Yahoo mailboxes, password-protected sites, etc. To display the image use either the BBCode [img] tag or appropriate HTML (if allowed).
Back to top
What are Announcements?
Announcements often contain important information and you should read them as soon as possible. Announcements appear at the top of every page in the forum to which they are posted. Whether or not you can post an announcement depends on the permissions required, which are set by the administrator.
Back to top
What are Sticky topics?
Sticky topics appear below any announcements in viewforum and only on the first page. They are often quite important so you should read them where possible. As with announcements the board administrator determines what permissions are required to post sticky topics in each forum.
Back to top
What are Locked topics?
Locked topics are set this way by either the forum moderator or board administrator. You cannot reply to locked topics and any poll contained inside is automatically ended. Topics may be locked for many reasons.

Administrators are people assigned the highest level of control over the entire board. These people can control all facets of board operation which include setting permissions, banning users, creating usergroups or moderators, etc. They also have full moderator capabilities in all the forums.
Back to top
What are Moderators?
Moderators are individuals (or groups of individuals) whose job it is to look after the running of the forums from day to day. They have the power to edit or delete posts and lock, unlock, move, delete and split topics in the forum they moderate. Generally moderators are there to prevent people going
or posting abusive or offensive material.
Back to top
What are Usergroups?
Usergroups are a way in which board administrators can group users. Each user can belong to several groups (this differs from most other boards) and each group can be assigned individual access rights. This makes it easy for administrators to set up several users as moderators of a forum, or to give them access to a private forum, etc.
Back to top
How do I join a Usergroup?
To join a usergroup click the usergroup link on the page header (dependent on template design) and you can then view all usergroups. Not all groups are
open access
-- some are closed and some may even have hidden memberships. If the board is open then you can request to join it by clicking the appropriate button. The user group moderator will need to approve your request; they may ask why you want to join the group. Please do not pester a group moderator if they turn your request down -- they will have their reasons.
Back to top
How do I become a Usergroup Moderator?
Usergroups are initially created by the board administrator who also assigns a board moderator. If you are interested in creating a usergroup then your first point of contact should be the administrator, so try dropping them a private message.
Back to top
Private Messaging
I cannot send private messages!
There are three reasons for this; you are not registered and/or not logged on, the board administrator has disabled private messaging for the entire board, or the board administrator has prevented you individually from sending messages. If it is the latter case you should try asking the administrator why.
Back to top
I keep getting unwanted private messages!
In the future we will be adding an ignore list to the private messaging system. For now, though, if you keep receiving unwanted private messages from someone, inform the board administrator -- they have the power to prevent a user from sending private messages at all.
Back to top
I have received a spamming or abusive email from someone on this board!
We are sorry to hear that. The email form feature of this board includes safeguards to try to track users who send such posts. You should email the board administrator with a full copy of the email you received and it is very important this include the headers (these list details of the user that sent the email). They can then take action.

The captaincy of Ponting and Strauss is surely going to have a large bearing on the series, both in terms of their tactical ability and their ability to keep the team mentally on the right track.
They are very contrasting in styles, Strauss a lot more laid back and Ponting a lot more in your face. Ponting also has miles more experience as captain, although Strauss is an experienced and mature player.
The contrast in their styles came to mind when I just read the two lead articles on Cricinfo, with Ponting urging his players to become legends, and Strauss describing the test of character ahead for his team.
I would be interested to hear people's views on how their relative strengths and weaknesses will impact the series.

Setting the Table: The Transforming Power of Hospitality in Business
Danny Meyer started Union Square Cafe when he was 27, with a good idea and scant experience. He is now the CEO of one of the world's most dynamic restaurant organizations that includes eleven unique dining establishments—and each is at the top of its game. How has he done it? How has he consistently beaten the odds in one of the toughest trades around? In this landmark book, Danny shares the lessons he's learned while developing the winning recipe for doing business he calls "Enlightened Hospitality." This innovative business philosophy emphasizes putting the power of hospitality to work in a new and counterintuitive way: The first and most important application of hospitality is to the people who work for you, and, in descending order of priority, the guests, the community, suppliers, and investors. This way of setting priorities stands the more traditional business models on their head, but Danny considers it the foundation of every success he, and his restaurants, have had. Full of behind-the-scenes history on the creation of Danny's most famous restaurants, and the anecdotes, advice and lessons he has accumulated on his long and ecstatic journey to the top of the American restaurant scene, Setting the Table is a treasure trove of innovative insights that are applicable to any business or organization. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Diabetes mellitus, also known simply as diabetes, is a syndrome of disordered metabolism, usually cause by a combination of hereditary and environmental causes, resulting in abnormally high blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia). Blood glucose levels are controlled by a complex interaction of multiple chemicals and hormones in the body, including the hormone insulin made in the beta cells of the pancreas. Diabetes mellitus refers to the group of diseases that lead to high blood glucose levels due to defects in either insulin secretion or insulin action.
Diabetes develops due to a diminished production of insulin (in type 1) or resistance to its effects (in type 2 and gestational). Both lead to hyperglycaemia, which largely causes the acute signs of diabetes: excessive urine production, resulting compensatory thirst and increased fluid intake, blurred vision, unexplained weight loss, lethargy, and changes in energy metabolism. Monogenic forms, e.g. MODY, constitute 1-5 % of all cases.
All forms of diabetes have been treatable since insulin became medically available in 1921, but there is no cure. The injections by a syringe, insulin pump, or insulin pen deliver insulin, which is a basic treatment of type 1 diabetes. Type 2 is managed with a combination of dietary treatment, exercise, medications and insulin supplementation.
The most common drugs for treating Diabetes are regular or NPH insulin, and/or synthetic insulin analogs in various combination.

Story highlights
- Professor says some details of accusations not known
- Three Scottsboro Boys had yet to receive pardons or had their charges overturned
- Charles Weems, John Andy Wright and Haywood Patterson got posthumous pardons
- Board of Pardons official: "wrongdoing of social and racial injustice" is remedied
For the Scottsboro Boys, justice delayed may be justice denied, but for some observers, it's still sweet.
A three-person panel of the Alabama Board of Pardons and Paroles voted unanimously to issue posthumous pardons Thursday to the three Scottsboro Boys who had neither already received a pardon nor had their convictions dropped, a state official said.
Thursday's pardons "remedied a wrongdoing of social and racial injustice," said Eddie Cook, assistant director for the board, in an interview with CNN.
The pardons were issued to Charles Weems, John Andy Wright and Haywood Patterson, the last of the nine who had been accused in the 1931 rape case, said Cook.
"It has taken 82 years to clear the names of the Scottsboro Boys," said Sheila Washington, founder and director of the Scottsboro Boys Museum and Cultural Center. "And today it happened."
In the case, nine African-American males -- ages 12 to 19 -- were accused of raping two white females on a train in Alabama, said Washington.
It was during the Great Depression, and they had hopped aboard boxcars en route to Memphis to seek work, she said.
Also on the train was a group of white males who got into a fight with the blacks and were thrown off, she said.
The whites went to the police, who stopped the train in the town of Paint Rock, outside Scottsboro. Among those who were aboard the train were the two white females -- one of them 17, the other 21, she said.
The older of the two had already had a brush with the law and, under the terms of her release, was not supposed to cross state lines, Washington said.
"She knew if she got caught, she'd have to go to prison," she said.
So, when the sheriff asked them about why they were on the train, the woman asked him if he was going to arrest her "after what they did to us," Washington said.
"He said, 'What did they do?' She said, 'They raped us.'"
But James Goodman, a professor of history and creative writing at Rutgers University in New Jersey, said it was not clear how the women came to make their accusations to the posse.
When the posse stopped the train and found nine black men, they also found the two white women dressed in men's overalls, said Goodman, author of "Stories of Scottsboro" (1994).
"Thousands and thousands of people are hoboing around in search of a bread line, in search of work," he said. "Most of them, but hardly all of them, men. Women dressed in work clothes so they wouldn't be conspicuous."
"My guess is they saw the nine black men, saw the two white women and they said, 'Did they bother you?'"
The women may have faced trouble for crossing state lines or for hoboing, but that is not certain, he said. "All we know is that somehow, at Paint Rock, a charge of rape emerges and the case begins there."
The suspects underwent a series of trials in Scottsboro and Decatur and were found guilty each time.
All-white juries sentenced all but the youngest to death.
"A judge declared a mistrial in the last case, which saved their lives," said Washington.
Including the appeals, there were four trials and seven retrials, Goodman said. When all was said and done, each of the nine spent as few as six years and as many as 19 years in jail.
The last of the Scottsboro Boys was released in 1950, though one of them ended up back in jail again, said Goodman.
Alabama dropped rape charges against five of the defendants, and the sixth, Clarence Norris, received a pardon from Gov. George Wallace in 1976, she said.
The trials resulted in two landmark U.S. Supreme Court decisions -- one requiring that defendants be tried by juries of their peers, meaning blacks in their cases; the other requiring that indigent defendants receive competent counsel.
The three men's relatives had been invited to attend Thursday's hearing, but none did so, Cook said.
Attendees at Thursday's event included Arthur Orr, a Republican state senator who sponsored Act 2013-081, which passed this year giving the board the authority to grant posthumous pardons for convictions that occurred at least 75 years prior.
Also in attendance was a representative of Gov. Robert Bentley and several university professors, all of whom supported the bill.
The case helped reignite the civil rights movement after years of slumber, said Goodman.
"African-Americans had never stopped agitating for their rights after reconstruction, but this is the beginning -- once again -- of an interracial movement for equality that had been stalled between the end of Reconstruction and the beginning of the Depression."
He added, "Suddenly, white people who just hadn't been paying attention begin to say, 'Holy mackerel, they're going to put nine African-American teenagers in the electric chair?"
Much has changed since those days, Goodman said, citing the nation's first black president.
But the criminal justice system is still not colorblind, he added. "Sadly, our prisons are still full of youngish black people who have been falsely accused of crime. Your chance, even to this day, of being incarcerated for something that you didn't do are still much greater if your skin is black or dark."

DENVER Mitt Romney painted Red Rocks blue Tuesday night and packed Denvers most famous concert venue with 10,000 screaming supporters.
Romneys crew bathed the iconic rock formations in blue light and a white, stylized R that Romney uses for his campaign symbol.
Kid Rock opened the rally, which included a rare joint appearance with Romneys running mate, Paul Ryan. Hundreds of supporters were turned away in long security lines.
For Romney, it was a show of strength just as his campaign is seeking to project confidence that he will coast through the last two weeks of the election.
He began by mentioning the debates that ended Monday night.
They have supercharged our campaign, Ill tell you that, Romney said. We are on the homestretch now, and I think the people of Colorado are going to get us there.
Romneys campaign has concentrated hard on Colorado this week, with Ryan rallying the troops Monday in Durango, Pueblo and Grand Junction. The state is one of several must-win swing states for Romney, while President Barack Obama could close off one of the Republicans best routes to victory with a win here.
Obama will campaign today in Denver.
Romney repeated an argument he made in Monday nights debate, saying Obama is too focused on attacking his opponents.
Attacks on us, that does not make an agenda for the future, Romney said. What youre seeing from the Obama campaign is an incredibly shrinking campaign.
Obamas campaign spokeswoman, Lis Smith, made similar charges against Romney.
Last night, he was exposed as reckless and wrong on foreign policy and failed to present any specific plans for what hed do as president. If hes hoping that voters will buy his Romnesia on everything from his support for keeping our troops bogged down in endless wars to his plan to raise middle-class taxes to pay for tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires, hes sorely mistaken, Smith said in a prepared statement.
Romney also kept up the tough talk about China that he displayed during the last debate.
If nations cheat at trade, and China has cheated, I will stop it. I will not allow them to steal our jobs, Romney said.
His running mate said the debates showed Romney had passed the test to prove to the country hes ready for the White House.
Last night, we witnessed for a third time a man who is ready to be a great president, Ryan said.
Back in late summer when he first joined the GOP ticket, Ryan often drew more enthusiastic applause at rallies than Romney. Not so Tuesday night.
Romney had to begin his speech several times as cheers drowned him out.
Democrats scoffed at Romney for holding the rally at Red Rocks amphitheater, which was built by government workers employed by New Deal social spending programs that President Franklin Roosevelt started in an effort to end the Depression.
ProgressNow Colorado was among the groups calling out the Romney campaign.
Red Rocks amphitheater, in addition to being a beloved symbol of culture and natural beauty to all Coloradans, was built by what Mitt Romney and the Republican Party would today derisively call stimulus money, said ProgressNow Colorado Executive Director Joanne Schwartz.

Widely regarded as Washington's most beautiful bridge, Memorial Bridge symbolically links North and South in its alignment between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington House, the Robert E. Lee Memorial. The adjacent Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway terminus, the Watergate steps, and monumental equestrian statuary join with the bridge in constituting a formal western terminus of the great Washington Mall composition at the edge of the Potomac. The bridge axis, angled southwesterly from the east-west Mall axis, is carried on Memorial Avenue across the Boundary Channel Bridge to the Virginia shore. There it terminates at the Arlington Hemicycle, keystone of the grand renaissance gateway to Arlington National Cemetery and now the location of the Women in Military Service for America Memorial. This Memorial and museum, located in the Hemicycle, was designed in 1989 by Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi, and is now open to the public. The project has restored the Hemicycle in a very sensitive manner. Arlington House rises as the focal point on the hill above.
The entire composition was designed by the prominent architectural firm of McKim, Mead and White. The low, Neo-classical bridge is 2,163 feet long; nine broad arches carry the bridge across the river. Except for the draw span, the bridge is of reinforced concrete construction faced with dressed North Carolina granite ashlar.
Memorial Bridge runs across the Potomac River from the Lincoln Memorial to Arlington House in Virginia. Metro stop: Arlington Cemetery

Posts Tagged 'Impact Bootcamp'
Back from Impact Bootcamp
Back in the office after a whirlwind weekend at Ken McArthur's Impact Bootcamp where we learned about and put into action the powerful ways we can use the different streams of Internet Marketing to get our message to the masses and make a huge impact. The project that was launched as the focus of our efforts was to raise awareness and funds to fight teen suicide…a vital message that is the passion of Deremiah…using every means of media, including Publicity, Motivation, Publishing, Internet, Newspapers, Television, Magazines, Social Media, Corporate Sponsorships, Non-Profit Sponsorships and Joint Ventures. It's a powerful, ongoing project that is literally going to save the lives of many, many teens. This is what marketing is really all about…making a difference in the lives of others.
The Impact Bootcamp was a bit of a defining weekend for me personally as well. I always enjoy spending time with friends, many of whom spoke Saturday, including Carrie Wilkerson (the Barefoot Executive), Donna Fox, Warren Whitlock and Mary Mazzullo. I love these guys (and gals) and we had a blast together. If you're not following what these amazing marketers are doing, you need to be. Each one has changed my personal and business life and they can do the same for you as well.
I also re-connected with my marketing friend, Kim Burney, who I met at Pat O'Bryan's UnSeminar5. Kim is a mover and shaker. She takes action (A LOT). I like that. At any event, there is always the new friendships and networking that happens, and this event is no exception. Many of my "new" friends and marketers, I actually had already "met" thanks to Twitter, so it was cool to see the people behind the posts.
If you're wondering why I'm talking about who I connected with at the event, it's for a good reason. If you really want to succeed in whatever you're doing, you have to build relationships. Business is ALL about relationships. That's where the JV's come from…that's where the brainstorming and mentoring comes from. You NEED to get to events! AND you need to Twitter. You can follow me at www.twitter.com/tonylaidig.
I loved meeting Ken McArthur. It was my first time at any of his events and I was blown away by the largeness of his heart. He cares…a lot. It was evident. Even last evening after the event was finished, he made sure he was available to talk with everyone who wanted access to him. You could literally see his passion for people in his eyes. More marketers need to follow his example.
There were two highlights from this weekend that really impacted me. The first was listening to and meeting Brendon Burchard. As I listened to him speak on Sunday morning, his love of life and passion to make a difference in the world around us really affected me at a deep level that I don't think I fully even understand yet. Even now, just writing about it, tears are welling up in my eyes and I'm not even sure why…that's what I mean. Brendon has an amazing message that I'll write more about from my notes at a later time. Meanwhile, do yourself a huge favor and buy his book, Life's Golden Ticket. It will challenge you personally and professionally in ways that will make your life soar.
My second highlight from the weekend was getting to spend more time with my good friend, Simone Blum. Simone is an amazing girl, originally from South Africa. We met at Pat O'Bryan's UnSeminar 5 event as well (seeing the pattern? Get to seminars!) and immediately hit it off. She's totally new to internet marketing (4 weeks and counting) but she has already taken more action than many people I know who have been at it for years. Simone is a rising star and you're going to want to pay attention to her. You should definitely follow her on Twitter (www.twitter.com/simoneblum) as well! As a part of Simone's ongoing experience of learning Internet Marketing, she is going to begin blogging daily all her experiences, frustrations, triumphs and setbacks from learning the processes. As she works through learning about autoresponders, she'll write about it. When she gets her webpages up, she'll write about it. She has a passion to bring everyone who is struggling to be successful online along with her as she learns, and it would serve you well to pay attention. You can find her blog at www.simoneblum.com.
I'll finish this post with a photo that, appropriately enough, pictures me with the two individuals who impacted me the most this weekend, Brendon and Simone:

Principal arrested for OWI, hit-and-run
John Smalley was cited for Feb. 28 incident
ONALASKA, Wis. — West Salem Elementary School Principal John Smalley was cited for OWI (1st offense) and hit-and-run for an incident on Feb. 28 in Onalaska.
Onalaska police were called to the scene of a hit-and-run on February 28 at 2:28 a.m. at 4th Avenue N. and Locust Street. When an officer arrived, he noticed a rear-end damage to an empty vehicle parked on 4th Avenue.
The officer followed a dark trail of what appeared to be engine fluid to Smalley's Onalaska house about a mile away from the incident, according to the police report. When the officer arrived at Smalley's house, he noticed an SUV with major front-end damage parked with its right tires up on a snow pile. The police report states the driver's airbag was deployed and the windows were down.
Smalley told police he was driving home from downtown where he met some relatives for beers and hit a car, but he emphasized he was not drunk. Smalley said he called AAA and, according to Smalley, they told him to file a police report in the morning. Smalley told police he planned to report the accident in the morning.
Smalley's breath sample registered .150. He was arrested and cited for first-offense OWI, hit-and-run unattended vehicle; failure to notify police of an accident; and operating left of center.
The School District of West Salem did not have a comment about this incident at this time.
