Morning Call: Gold Higher As Hedge Fund Manager John Paulson Says Buy, NatGas Surges For 2nd Day
- Details
The bias in commodity markets remains higher.
News flow is light today, but the bias in financial markets remains higher as stocks hover near nine-month highs. In turn, commodities are also trending to multimonth highs in many cases.
- Precious metals are modestly higher today. The sector has been largely flat this week as traders looked to other commodities to take advantage of an improving economic outlook. Safe-haven demand also ebbed as eurozone sovereign debt concerns receded.
Nevertheless, long-term inflation concerns continue to support gold in particular. "By the time inflation becomes evident, gold will have moved, which implies that now is the time to build a position," said billionaire hedge fund manager John Paulson.
The yellow metal was last trading up by $4.49, or 0.26 percent, to $1732.65/oz, while silver added $0.07, or 0.2 percent, to $33.56. Platinum gained $16.25, or 1 percent, to $1640.75, and palladium inched lower by $0.75, or 0.11 percent, to $695.50.
Gold Traders Get More Bullish as Billionaire Paulson Says Buy - Crude oil is mixed today as Brent pauses after reaching the best level in eight months overnight. Prices got as high as $120.70/bbl, but were last trading lower by $0.16, or 0.13 percent, to $119.95. WTI gained $0.51, or 0.5 percent, to $102.82.
"Most blame geopolitics for the latest spike, and we don't quibble with that," said Frederic Neumann, co-head for Asian economic research at a bank in Hong Kong. "But fundamentally, Asia's huge appetite for crude is providing the backdrop."
Crude Oil Set for Biggest Weekly Gain This Year on US Economy, Greek Aid - Natural gas prices are surging for a second day, up $0.11, or 4.21 percent, to $2.68/mmbtu. "While low Nymex natural-gas prices are motivating Powder River basin coal-to-gas substitution, power generation demand for natural gas has also increased in other regions of the country, resulting in very strong overall demand from power generators so far this year," said David Greely, head of energy research at Goldman Sachs.
US Gas Low Enough to Boost Switch From Coal, Goldman Says - The grain complex is higher, with soybeans at a four-month high amid dry-weather-related concerns in South America. Corn was last trading up by $0.05, or 0.79 percent, to $6.41/bushel, while soybeans added $0.12, or 0.91 percent, to $12.70, and wheat gained $0.09, or 1.39 percent, to $6.38.
Wheat Advances for Second Day as Egypt Buys From US; Corn, Soybeans Gain - Copper is seeing little movement on Comex, as prices edge higher by 0.12 percent to $3.80. "If you take a look at China you can see a continuous build-up in inventory levels which shows that demand is cooling down a little bit in China," said Daniel Briesemann, an analyst at Commerzbank.

The Bureau of Field Operations is the largest component of the Oakland Police Department. Patrol personnel provide day-to-day police services that include response to emergency and non-emergency calls for service and critical incidents, conducting preliminary investigations and evidence collection, engaging in community-oriented problem solving, and crime-fighting efforts.
In addition to patrol officers, community policing officers, crime response team officers, neighborhood enhancement team officers, foot patrol officers, police service technicians, and police evidence technicians are all a part of the Bureau of Field Operations team.
The Bureau of Field Operations is divided in two:
- BFO One is commanded by Deputy Chief David Downing and consists of Area 1, Area 2, and Area 3.
- BFO Two is commanded by Deputy Chief Eric Breshears and consists of Area 4 and Area 5.

Animal Services Under the management of Director David Cronin, Oakland Animal Control has the dual responsibility of maintaining public safety and supporting animal welfare. The Section regulates animal-related activities within the City of Oakland and responds to a variety of animal-related calls-for-service (e.g., vicious and injured animals, animal cruelty, dead animal pick-up, barking dogs). Animal Services investigates and provides follow-up on violations of both penal and Oakland municipal animal-related code violations.

Traffic Operations Section
Under the command of Lieutenant Pete Lau, the Traffic Operations Section (TOS) focuses on vehicle enforcement and traffic safety. The TOS provides support to area commanders through traffic enforcement (motor vehicle violations and DUI checkpoints), traffic investigations, and vehicle abatement. The TOS receives traffic concerns from a variety of sources, including community members, accident data, and officer observations. In 2012, the City's Parking Enforcement was moved to Departmental authority and placed under the Traffic Operations Section.

DBF Foxpro Viewer - Export dbf, import dbf database, convert dbf files! Membuka File Dbf
DESCRIPTION Membuka File DbfDBFView is a terse but efficacious application for printing, viewing, editing DBF-format databases - screen shot.It supports FoxPro, dBase, Visual FoxPro, Clipper and other DBF formats. In contrast to many analogues, DBFView is completely a Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP/Vista application. The user friendly graphic makes using databases facile and hassle free. Most important parts of DBFView code are written in Assembler, therefore the basic operations performs fast and the .exe file is very small (only 410Kb! ). DBFView uses its own database access programs and does not require external drivers for connection to databases (such as ODBC or BDE) or additional libraries (.OCX,.DLL). The program allows you to sort, view and edit files in DOS or Windows character sets, zap, search in a file, import/export from MS Excel (including MS Excel 2007! ), delete, convert csv and xls / xlsx to dbf format, get detailed database information, recall, export dbf to txt/html format, add, pack records. DBFView comes with Installer/Uninstaller, documentation in HTML format, and sample files. FEEDBACKJohn PriersI found Dbf Editor after a lengthy exploration on the net. I was looking for a product that could provide a view, update, and edit interface for a large database that could reside on an internet drive (like X-Drive), where I and co-workers out of state could access and quickly update our numbers (basically job/data tracking for telecommuters). The company does waveform compression, photo-editing (school, corporate, restorative work) utilizing high-speed internet, some good computer artists. Maybe 5000 negative scans per year. Anyway, nobody wanted to install full-blown database program, sql server or the like, the company is not that big, nor is the data itself considered critical. So for this type of user, your interface provides clean, quick, simple, no syntax required, put the data in and go. Others I looked at tried to do the same but usually forget the "people element", and I don't have time to learn sql syntax and help them complete their software. (Incidently, I used to have a lot of fun programming DBase II and III, then I saw Access and cried). Helen Mitten - Software ManagerWe were interested because our users needed something rapid to view dbf files and we did not want to use FoxPro. We had another aplication that works on Windows 95 and NT but would not work on Windows 98. We tried work with Excel but it would only read up to 65, 536 records and some of the files they look at are larger than that. I had looked at another dbfviewer but it did not have all the functionality that yours has. Mike Taylor - Software ManagerI do not use frequently databases, but in connection with a research project I got hold of a CD with a 30-meg DBF file on it - 74, 624 records, 23 fields, total of field widths 414 characters. At first I tried copying the file to the hard drive and reading it with Quattro Pro. This was possible, but it was slow, and pushed the program to an intolerable number of illegal mistakes leading to shutdown. So I went on the net and searched for DBF view programms, hit apycom. Com pretty soon, read the home page and decided Dbf Editor sounded useful and inexpensive, downloaded it, and have found it to be very serviceable. The program was easy to install, reads quickly from the CD-ROM drive, finds individual records reliably and quickly enough for my purposes, and in general seems like a tremendous bargain. QUICK HELPExport DBF to Comma Separated Text (.dbf to .csv)Saves the base contents as comma separated text file.If "Export with field names" is checked, the first line of output csv file will contain database field names. You can also select colon or semicolon as separator. Dbf Editor Toolbar & MenuWith the toolbar button you can quick call main menu commands. If you leave the mouse cursor on a button for a moment, a small window with a description will appear. Export DBF to Excel File (.dbf to .xls)Saves the dbf database records a Microsoft Excel File xls. If "Export with field names" is checked, the the output xls file will contain field names. You can also open the output file automatically in MS Excel after the converting is done by selecting "Open database in MS Excel after exporting" checkbox.

Walkers English Roast Beef & Yorkshire Pud Crisps Reviews

Like most people it seems the Walkers new flavours have proved incredibly popular. Walkers must be raking it in with thanks to their creative marketing team coming up with this idea in conjunction with the world cup. I managed to pick up three bags (6 in each bag) of the new flavours for £3.00 in Sainsburys and it is always nice to choose something other than Walkers ready salted! The first packet I pulled out was the English Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding which was fine by me as I like nothing more than a roast beef dinner and Yorkshire puddings, but would it offer me the same taste? *** Packaging *** The English Roast Beef and Mustard come in ...

Released as part of Walkers current World Cup campaign there are 15 new and 'exciting' flavours to try each representing a country competing in the competition. Hugely gimmicky and a marketing executives dream I had up until today avoided everything to do with these until I spotted an offer in Tesco for two 6-pack multipacks for a very reasonable £2.00. One multipack contained these, the English Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding flavour contained in a patriotic white pack with the St Georges flag emblazoned on the front.

Walkers have released a limited edition range of 15 flavours of crisps which represent different countries in the world cup. The flavours are expected to taste like that countries most popular food. *Product* Well since my beloved Scotland aren't in the World Cup, I have went South of the border to England and this is their offering "English Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pud". As with all Walkers crisps, these are flavoured potato crisps. *Packaging* The crisps come in a standard foil bag sealed for freshness.

Walkers have brought out 15 new flavours for the world cup, with each flavour representing a different country. I love trying out new flavours, so when I spotted the English Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding flavour in my local shop for 40p, I had to grab a bag. The packaging itself is fairly noticable, with a bit St Georges flag, and a trophy in the corner filled with all kinds of different foods.Thers the full ingredient listing there (sadly, this crisps contain 'Poultry Broth' making them unsuitable for veggies), nutritional information, and information about how to vote for your favourite flavour.

They are all based on different countries and I've tried quite a few of them now, these English Roast Beef And Yorkshire Pudding ones was the first I tried and they're delish! I've already voted for them in the Flavour Cup and hope they stay on the shelves if they win! They are just yummy and one of the best flavour crisps Walkers have brought out for a long time.

Open Source and Linux are great, but does xTuple ERP run on Windows?
Absolutely. Both the client and the server software run on Windows – as well as Mac OS X, Linux, and even other Unix systems. You – and your customers – can mix and match however you like, leveraging investments in existing technology without having to buy all new systems. That of course frees up more money for you.

Stephen Rubin is not shy about the fact that he has risen rapidly in the publishing business. The new president and publisher of Doubleday confesses that about five years ago he had to ask his boss at Bantam Books what a royalty was.
''I knew everyone in publishing but nothing about the business,'' Mr. Rubin said in an interview yesterday.
By any estimate, he has learned fast. But now this journalist-turned-publisher will have to demonstrate that his sharp eye for a best seller and unusual affability are combined with the abilities of a tough administrator. Doubleday, he conceded, needs to present ''a rosier financial picture.''
''I am bottom-line-oriented, and as interested in making money as anyone else,'' he said.
'Lot of Flash and Dash'
But an executive at a rival publishing house who asked not to be identified suggested that there was ''a lot of flash and dash'' about Mr. Rubin and that he would have to prove his business abilities.

Microsoft Designing Smart Watch
Daily Tech for 4-16-13
MOBILE, Ala. - It looks like the market for smart watches and wearable devices is growing.
Microsoft is reportedly working on designs for a touch-enabled watch. Apple is also working on its plans for a smart watch.
The Wall Street Journal says big tech companies are betting on a boom in wearable computerized gadgets, thanks to sensors that detect body temperature, location, and voice commands. Nike has a product called the fuel-band that measures physical activity. And, Google is testing Google Glass, which connects eyeglasses to the internet.
There could be a bidding war for Sprint Nextel. Dish Network announced yesterday it has bid more than $25 billion to buy the cell phone company. The bid is an attempt to snatch Sprint away from Japanese tech company, Softbank. Sprint is the country's third-largest cell phone carrier. The company says it will evaluate Dish's offer.
Ford and General Motors are teaming up again to design some advanced automatic transmissions.
They announced yesterday that together they'll develop 9-speed and 10-speed transmissions, in an effort to improve fuel efficiency. The new transmissions will be jointly engineered, but each automaker will separately make them for its own vehicles.
Ford and GM will also create separate software for controlling the transmission.
That's your Daily Tech.

Manhunt: The Story
Revealing screens and new details shed light on Rockstar North's perturbing new action game.
How is the game's story presented? How does it unfold? "The cutscenes in our 200-page script tell the story, but a significant chunk is told though the ever-present comments of Starkweather as Cash makes his way from scene to scene," explains Worrall.
The city is controlled with remote-controlled gates, magnetically locked, and Cerberus guards patrol the perimeter. Everything is scripted to the Director's liking, everything is controlled by him, and your life -- or death -- is decided by his utter whim.
As players learn to control Cash and earn rewards (the most risky and grotesque deaths the better), they'll grow more powerful -- with new weapons to be precise -- in addition to learning more about Carcer City's ins and outs, tricks and traps. They encounter more dangerous gangs too.
"We wanted to create a f&*%ed-up game using AI controlled gangs hunting the player and it all snowballed from there," said Alan Davidson, the lead character designer. If you haven't seen the new pictures of Cash, his look has recently been altered.
But there's more than pure evil whim flowing through the streets of Carcer City. There's another element. Besides the hood-wearing thugs, there are legitimate residents who won't or can't turn a blind eye to the atrocities perpetrated after night fall.
A local journalist has uncovered a small sample of Starkweather's plans. She attended his execution and watched him die in the chamber (his death logged into state record). And she knows he's alive. If she can get video footage -- and testimony -- from Cash, she may be able to expose the snuff film ring -- and launch her career.
The game's themes of voyeurism, overt violence and limitless control are well documented by Websites and magazines at this point in time, and they represent some of the more mature and potentially troublesome concepts in games today. It's not that these ideas haven't been presented before -- videogame creators have long aimed injected similar themes into video gams -- rather, it's the game's presentation and tone that will burn into players' memory cells.
"[We want to create a game that delivers] a scathing social commentary on media voyeurism, the peddling of violence as entertainment and the inbred inaccuracy of the American penal system," explained Christian Cantamessa, lead level designer on Manhunt. That's no small order.
Much like in GTA, which pokes fun at American society by various means, Rockstar North looks to puncture a bigger hole in society's veneer with Manhunt. Will it succeed? The premise is convincing, the story involving, and the gameplay more than inviting. But this is really just a taste of the game, which we'll continue to unveil feature by feature in tne near future. We'll have more on Manhunt soon.

He was happy, light, very forward, NO resistance (didn't even need my crop!) It was one of those rides where you feel just elated afterwards (esp. After how he's been acting the last 2 weeks).
Just wondering if he did have worms and felt awful, and now he feels better?? Is that possible, or would a worming not have that profound of an effect?

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'The Hyphenates of Jackson County' tag.
A quick note today about the results of the 2013 Summer Literary Seminars Unified Literary Contest. The winners were announced last week here, of which I'm not included. Congrats to them.
While this wasn't announced publicly, the contest coordinators did let me know that my submission was short-listed as a finalist. Good news there!
This is the fourth time I've been on an SLS contest short-list. Somebody there must like me, I guess. Quite a compliment considering the stiff competition the contest brings in. The significance this time is a little different for me in that my submission ("The Hyphenates of Jackson County") was excerpted from my novel, thus continuing a string of positive momentum for The Uninitiated this year. No agent yet, no publisher. But, if you'll excuse the recap, the full manuscript did win Tarcher/Penguin's Top Artist Writing Contest and a different excerpt was accepted for publication in Boulevard under the title "River Ward, 1917″. The book is four years in the making, so it's very nice to get some little bit of recognition of its quality. Hopefully the string continues to build.
Some day I hope to be a part of a Summer Literary Seminar. It's a great institution for writers, one I've heard nothing but nice things about from folks who have gone out with them. Being immersed in the writing culture of a country on another continent for a month–what's not to like? Here's more information on their current seminars in Lithuania and Kenya in case you're interested.
I'm excited to share that, this week, my fiction was again chosen to appear in a future edition of Boulevard! Amazingly, this will be my fourth story in Boulevard, which has really become a great home to my work these past few years. (The breakdown of each story is below if you're interested.)
Here's the opening of "River Ward, 1917″, which may be familiar to some of you:
It used to be a common thing for a young man to light off secretly in the night, searching for a life different from the one he toiled through at home. Jacob Bressler became an exile in this way. He left under starlight and led his horse over the brawny shoals of what would be his brother's farm from then on. He didn't bother with a saddle but merely slid a bridle over the nag's muzzle and walked into the buggy paths of the river valley. In the dark he found the graveled highway that led to Omaha. There was no need to rush. His brother wouldn't follow him.
What's most pleasing about this pub is that "River Ward, 1917″ is excerpted from my novel, The Uninitiated, and marks the first time any of this writing will see print. It's a landmark, of sorts, for me. Four years have past since I began work on the novel. From it's early shape as The Open City to the early days of The Hyphenates of Jackson County to its current form as The Uninitiated, it has taken a lot of work to get here.
So it's exciting to get some of the book out there. To have the piece run in Boulevard means even more. Boulevard was my first major publication, running "Welcome Home" in the spring 2008, really launching an encouraging string of success with the short form that saw the story reprinted in Best New American Voices and recognized in a Pushcart Prize anthology. I can only hope that "River Ward, 1917″ appearing in Boulevard in the fall of 2013 holds similar portent for my long form work. Regardless, cheers! This one feels good.
Special thanks goes out to Amber Mulholland, Travis Theiszen, Country Club Bill, Mary Helen Stefaniak and any others who helped this particular section through its early phases. And to the Lee Martin workshop at last June's Nebraska Summer Writers Conference, who gave significant feedback and support in its latest phase. And to Richard Burgin and the editors at Boulevard too, of course. Thanks!
TW stories in Boulevard: "Welcome Home" in Spring 2008, "The Approximate End of the World" in Spring 2010, "On a Train from the Place Called Valentine" in Spring 2012, "River Ward, 1917″ is forthcoming.
Just in case you missed it, here's what happened on here in September:
-I took a few weeks off from working on the novel–using the time to clean up a few new short stories for submission–but am now reading and editing my first complete draft. It's a lot of fun to read so far, seeing how things come together, and where they don't.
-The Uninitiated released its comprehensive and authoritative rankings of MFA and PhD programs in creative writing. The University of Texas at Austin took the top spot.
-My review of Rahul Mehta's Quarantine was accepted for publication by The Iowa Review Online, and will appear shortly in the month of October.
-My review of David Philip Mullins' Greetings from Below—previously accepted for publication by Prairie Schooner—has been scheduled to run in the Spring 2012.
Dispatch from The Hyphenates of Jackson County
"The noise was so frightening that Jacob couldn't stand still. He had to move his feet, around in the crowd, or he felt like someone was going to take a shot at him. A block over there was a nervous cop who sprayed shotgun fire into the air whenever someone approached the car he guarded. The cascading noise of tumbling glass was punctuated by the fraught screams of woman in jeopardy. Or maybe that wasn't it at all, what Jacob thought he heard. Maybe that was the sound of a woman's prurient cheer as government windows were smashed to shards. There was the roar of voices, people fighting and being hurt. The flash of small arms erupting. The police sirens, their barking orders. The steam valve had been blown clean off and Jacob couldn't stay where he was. He had to run into it, into the noise and fighting. He had to see everything, to document it in his mind. Speeding cars rushed into the crowds. Young men jumped on the sideboards of cars to swing around to where the action was. There were cars with Sicilians, Lithuanians, Greeks, Serbians. Once word of the melee spread, anyone who wanted to take a swing at a cop made a bee-line to Scandal Flats. A gang hijacked a streetcar and plowed into the mess, clanging the bell to announce their audacity. Teenage boys and musky husbands rushed out of houses with whatever hammer or club or bat they could lay hands on, and then hopped in a taxi to get there fast. A mechanical rumble filled the atmosphere. Roadsters and jalopies, homemade in Little Italy garages, swung recklessly around the blocks. They swerved to miss people and each other. Jacob couldn't always see the cars but he could hear their pop-pop motors hammering at full throttle a block away, spreading echoes between buildings, echoes that bounced back from the high-rises of downtown. Trucks, commissioned or otherwise, hopped hot over the pavement to load up with furniture or produce or women's clothes. Taxis slumped cockeyed and labored up the hills, packed full inside, passengers on the footboards.
"People shouted out to groups of strangers any news they heard. There was lots of talk in the mob about the smutty details of the rape—conjecture about Will Brown's body in relation to the girl's. They made him out to be huge, a towering man, arms like a gorilla's, legs like a mule's. They talked about Agnes Loebeck as if she was a little girl, pious and pure, like she only ever wore little white Sunday dresses, like she picked berries in a pristine field, like she'd never even heard of anything like a dick before."
Personal Rejection Notes, Requests for More, and Other Nice Versions of No Thanks
Bomb for "Shame Cycle."
Just Finished
Atmospheric Disturbances by Rivka Galchen. Eh.
My Antonia by Willa Cather. I really enjoyed this book, and can see why it's often noted as Cather's finest. I was surprised at how Modernist this novel is, it's really quite innovative, as I'd always thought it was more of a Victorian, continental-style book for young women than anything. I stand corrected. A masterful work.
Also, if you haven't heard this NPR piece by Bradford Morrow on My Antonia, you should really check it out. Here's part of what Morrow has to say:
What's interesting about My Antonia is how it manages to function as a perfectly inviting story for young readers, and how an adult willing to revisit it with a more developed critical eye can appreciate it for the subtly sophisticated narrative it truly is. In this regard, it's not unlike a wildly different book, Alice in Wonderland. Great fun for kids, psychologically captivating for grownups.
Now Reading
Shadow Traffic by Richard Burgin.
Up Next
Bohemian Girl by Terese Svoboda.
I finished a rough draft of my novel!
It took me almost exactly two years to get to this point–two and a half when counting research–but I now have a whole book on my hands and can start editing with a fuller knowledge of what happens in the book.
It feels kind of strange, even though it isn't done by a longshot. There was always a little bit of doubt in the back of my mind that I would ever finish the novel, even a very rough draft of it. Maybe because I'd spent a year on a previous novel that I had to shelve and kill, the possibility that I'd keep switching projects for years without finishing anything loomed in my mind. Sometimes it's good to be stubborn. Writing the final few paragraphs of Hyphenates was surreal and exciting, knowing that they are (or may be) the actual end of the novel.
If things go reasonably well, I should have a real finished version of the book in 6-8 months to start sending out. In any event, I'll only work on this up to eight more years before I give up on it.
Mission accomplished. Sort of.
The bulk of my writing work this summer has revolved around the Omaha Race Riot of 1919, a tumultuous and hugely traumatic event that I've been attempting to dramatize in Part 5 of my novel-in-progress, The Hyphenates of Jackson County. The riot, a well-known scar on Omaha's history, one that is referred to from time to time in this space, was set off and punctuated by the lynching of Will Brown, an itinerant black worker who'd been accused of rape.
A lot of my previous work has dark themes, and I felt pretty well accustomed to portraying violence in my work. But I haven't been as prepared for the kind of in-depth experience that researching and writing about a lynching has been. The darkness has kind of caught me by surprise sometimes–maybe because these bad things really happened, where the violence in my previous work was purely fictional. It isn't something that can just be packed away at the end of the day, going through hundreds of horrific images with a mind toward depicting them, or getting inside the psyche of a character who would shoot at a hanging body and burn a corpse, or trying to imagine what that person who would be lynched might be thinking as their days and hours dwindled, before they were about to die in an infamous way.
Many of these things I researched happened in places I walk by everyday, as I work as a reporter at the Douglas County Courthouse, where the riot and lynching occurred. It was easy to be reminded, which, I suppose, was kind of the point of the project in the first place.
Most of my work was spent reading and re-reading local newspaper accounts of the riot–in microfilm copies of the World-Herald, Daily Bee, Daily News, and Monitor, the black weekly, from 1919. Some of the accounts are chilling. Eye witness and insider accounts. The riot built over the course of eight hours, so there was considerable news coverage. The Bee's headquarters was right across the street from the Douglas County Courthouse (where the Woodmen Tower stands now) at the epicenter of the riot. There are many photos, some graphic accounts. The news now is pretty tame in comparison to what it used to be like, in some ways.
Here's how the Nebraska State Historical Society describes the lynching of Will Brown on their web site NebraskaStudies.org:
Brown ended up in the hands of the crazed mob. He was beaten into unconsciousness. His clothes were torn off by the time he reached the building's doors. Then he was dragged to a nearby lamp pole on the south side of the courthouse at 18th and Harney around 11:00 p.m. The mob roared when they saw Brown, and a rope was placed around his neck. Brown was hoisted in the air, his body spinning. He was riddled with bullets. His body was then brought down, tied behind a car, and towed to the intersection of 17th and Dodge. There the body was burned with fuel taken from nearby red danger lamps and fire truck lanterns. Later, pieces of the rope used to lynch Brown were sold for 10 cents each. Finally, Brown's charred body was dragged through the city's downtown streets.
The Omaha Race Riot happened toward the end of what James Weldon Johnson coined as the Red Summer, a period of months following the end of World War I when race riots gripped numerous major American cities. At least forty-three African-Americans were lynched in America, from January to September, in 1919. This was at the height of the Great Migration, at the same time as white soldiers were returning from service in Europe to find their old jobs filled, at the same time as labor disputes and strikes were common and heavily reported on by the Yellow Press, at the same time as the U.S. government was using global tension to crack down hard on any dissident group it didn't like, and there were many they didn't like. It isn't surprising that so much violence broke out. What surprises is the utter glee with which that violence was undertaken.
I found that the more I read about the lynching of Will Brown, the harder it was to go through the rest of the day–which is as it should be when confronting such examples of dehumanization. It became necessary to split up the work, to take days off, to take time working on unrelated short fiction, so as to not walk around with a diseased soul all the time. To not be gripped with outrage and sadness.
In Tel Aviv I started writing by hand on a legal pad–out of necessity there, as I didn't want to lug around a laptop overseas–and continued the practice here at home. It's been very helpful to do this, in a surprising way. Not only have I kept writing on the legal pad, but I've done so outside of the house too. It's been so much harder to write inside our house than it is to write outside of it. At first I thought it was a product of being bored in my office–where I do almost all of my work, thinking that the trip to Israel helped to bust loose some cobwebs–but I believe it's been of a distancing method from the material on an emotional level more than anything. On some level, I think, I'm not really all that comfortable bringing this stuff into my house. It makes me nervous, or guilty, to write about a lynching across the hall from the room where my daughter sleeps. But if I'm outside our home–on the patio, at the Joslyn Sculpture Garden, at the courthouse itself, or out of the U.S. altogether–then the material comes out. I'm able to write about it. It's been kind of strange, and I hope the work come off okay.
I'm almost done with the book. I'd been saving this stuff for last, not sure exactly how one writes about it.
I'd like to share one of my online sources that I found particularly haunting–and that is the web site Without Sanctuary: Lynching Photography in America. (There's a book also.) The site features hundreds of photos of lynchings from around the country. What's even more disturbing, is that most of these photos were on postcards sold afterwards, in what has to be the darkest bit of Americana. They were found at flea markets and in private collections. Apparently quite a few of them are out there still.
Also, here is a database listing of lynchings by state, in case you're interested. Over the period of 1882-1968 the database covers, 4,743 people–of all races–were lynched in forty-one different states.

twas ok
The characters were so jumpy. its like they were all on crack. every half a second they would bounce up and down, it was very annoying, but besides that the animation was ok. the art was pretty average. i didnt like the way that the hair was drawn. way too flat, and the way you drew the woman was awful. the sound was really poor quality, but i dont blame you for that, just get a new microphone. but you seem to be pretty new to flash, so im gonna be easier on you with the rating.

3-D virtual colonoscopy less invasive UPI 3/29/2013 2:29:51 AM DALLAS, March 28 (UPI) -- A 3-D virtual colonoscopy -- a quicker, less-invasive version of the conventional test -- is an option for patients to consider, a U.S. expert says. Dr. Cecelia Brewington, vice chairwoman of imaging services at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas and a professor of radiology, said many people skip screenings for colorectal cancer even though the condition is one of the most commonly diagnosed and is the second-leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Brewington said doctors can use an imaging technique known as computed tomography and virtual reality computer software to view and evaluate detailed images of the inside of the colon and rectum. "Virtual colonoscopy is designed to take some of the fear or intimidation out of the exam," Brewington said in a statement. "The procedure typically lasts about 15 minutes and does not require sedation or insertion of a scope into the colon." Brewington said the 3-D test is nearly as accurate as an invasive colonoscopy and can detect polyps bigger than 10 millimeters -- 0.39 inches -- with 90 percent accuracy. However, the virtual procedure is not recommended for patients who have been previously diagnosed with polyps or colon cancer. Comments
