Professor Anita Hill lifted my feminism from my soul and inner circle of cohorts and into a public place.
My old hometown newspaper called the women's center where I served as co-coordinator during my undergrad days to get a quote about the Judiciary Committee's fooliganery regarding Professor Hill testifying against then-Supreme Court Justice nominee Clarence Thomas. Since I answered the phone, I told the reporter exactly what was on my heart to say: I wanted to give Hill a bouquet of roses for speaking out, for steadily speaking her truth about the sexual harassment Thomas inflicted on her.
The reporter used my quote in the story.
As much as the media wanted to make Hill's testimony about her gender versus Thomas' race–which Thomas deftly configured for them with his infamous "high-tech lynching" statement, the Republicans cast all kinds of asperations about Hill's character and motivations for testifying, and the Democrats, led by then-Senator Joe Biden, waffled and left Hill to defend herself against the GOP's vicious attacks–I knew in my 22-year-old heart that Thomas' rhetorical sleight-of-hand covered the ugly reality that he more than likely said and did exactly what Hill said he did. In other words, I believed Anita Hill. And I believed her not only because I suffered from sexual violence at the hands of a Black man, I also understood with crystal clarity at a very young age how some Black people will step up and protect a Black man who perpetrates sexual violence by dismissing a Black woman who speaks up about the violation, as my ex-stepfather did when I told him about mine. So, I knew intuitively that Hill told the truth because she had a very tangible sense of community to lose by speaking out against a Black man who used his professional position and power to sexual violate her–in their workplace, no less–and she did it anyway. As she stated in her testimony:
I was aware, however, that telling at any point in my career could adversely affect my future career… It would have been more comfortable to remain silent. It took no initiative to inform anyone. I took no initiative to inform anyone. But when I was asked by a representative of this committee to report my experience I felt that I had to tell the truth. I could not keep silent.
So, though I meant the bouquet metaphorically, I meant it very, very sincerely: Anita Hill spoke my truth, and I spoke the truth of my gratitude to that hometown reporter back in 1991.
Of course, the rest is history: the Senate approved Thomas' nomination, and he sits on the Supreme Court. As the time of his SCOTUS nomination, the American Bar Association damned Thomas with the faint praise of rating him "qualified"–with a lot of qualifiers. As quiet as it's kept, I suspect Hill may have successfully cast a pall over Thomas' jurisprudential fitness.The Judiciary Committee evenly split their vote, which led to the vote going to the full Senate–and, though divided down the party lines, Thomas received one of the narrowest approvals in about a century.
What can't be quietly kept is Professor Hill's immediate and lasting legacy: her testimony led to a very public conversation about sexual harassment in the workplace. Congress passed a federal law made sexual harassment illegal by giving victims of sexual harassment legal recourse, including pursuing back pay, damages, and reinstatement. A year after Hill's appearance, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission's filed complaints about workplace sexual harassment rose 50 percent, and private companies implemented training programs to educate their employees about sexual harassment. The voters elected a large number of Congresswomen in 1992, in reaction to their witnessing how badly the Judiciary Committee fucked up during their interrogation of Hill by questioning her character, motives, and choices instead of her claims about Thomas' inappropriate behavior–which several people substantiated in verbal and written statements.
Hill's testimony also became a crystallizing moment for Black feminists: a group of Black feminists took out a full-page ad, which ran on November 17, 1991, titled "African American Women In Defense Of Ourselves":
We are particularly outraged by the racist and sexist treatment of Professor Anita Hill, an African American woman who was maligned and castigated for daring to speak publicly of her own experience of sexual abuse. The malicious defamation of Professor Hill insulted all women of African descent and sent a dangerous message to any woman who might contemplate a sexual harassment complaint.
We speak here because we recognize that the media are now portraying the Black community as prepared to tolerate both the dismantling of affirmative action and the evil of sexual harassment in order to have any Black man on the Supreme Court. We want to make clear that the media have ignored or distorted many African American voices. We will not be silenced.
Many have erroneously portrayed the allegations against Clarence Thomas as an issue of either gender or race. As women of African descent, we understand sexual harassment as both. We further understand that Clarence Thomas outrageously manipulated the legacy of lynching in order to shelter himself from Anita Hill's allegations. To deflect attention away from he reality of sexual abuse in African American women's lives, he trivialized and misrepresented this painful part of African American people's history. This country, which has a long legacy of racism and sexism, has never taken the sexual abuse of black women seriously. Throughout U.S. history black women have been sexually stereotyped as immoral, insatiable, perverse, the initiators in all sexual contacts–abusive or otherwise. The common assumption in legal proceedings as well as in the larger society has been that black women cannot be raped or otherwise sexually abused. As Anita Hill's experience demonstrates, Black women who speak of these matters are not likely to be believed.
In 1991, we cannot tolerate this type of dismissal of any one Black woman's experience or this attack upon our collective character without protest, outrage and resistance.
We pledge ourselves to continue to speak out in defense of one another, in defense of the African American community and against those who are hostile to social justice, no matter what color they are. No one will speak for us but ourselves.
The statement was signed by 1,600 Black women. Four years later, African American Women Speak Out On Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas, edited by Geneva Smitherman with , dropped.
Over twenty years later, Hill's testimony has earned her several bouquets of gratitude. As chronicled in Freida Mock's own loving–if a bit visually workaday–documentary titled ANITA, Hill's testimony serves a through-line for such anti-harassment movements like Hollaback!, paeans penned by Edwidge Danticat, conferences like the historic, intergenerational "Sex, Power, and Speaking Truth: Anita Hill 20 Years Later" held at Hunter College in 2011, and a video produced by The Nation featuring Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw and director of the National Domestic Workers' Alliance Ai-jen Poo. Mock's film also captures Hill's own growth as a feminist icon as well as a woman who quietly stays grounded in her family, her career, her roots, and her 11-year-old relationship–all of which, I bet, gave her the strength to laugh off Justice Thomas' wife demanding that Professor Hill apologize for her testimony against her husband back in '91.
Hill's partner comments toward the end of ANITA on seeing "so many strong women" and recognizes how their strength–our strength–came from Prof. Hill's courage to speak out against her harasser. And all I can say to that is, "Yep…and, thank you, Professor Hill, for getting us here."

All I can say is that Prof. Hill gets mad props form me, for the simple fact that she was able to maintain her professionalism during that whole debacle, no matter how bad she was made to look, despite the fact that it seemed at one point that nobody has her back at that time. She also never tried to cash in on her notoriety (which she didn't want in the 1st place) and used her unwanted fame to focus in on important issues (like for example, when she came to speak at a benefit for a battered woman's shelter here in the D back in the winter of 1995). She's a better woman than me—if I was her and Mrs. Thomas had the nerve to call me after all these years,she would have gotten cursed out with the quickness. She even handled that in a classy way, consdering the unclassy reason Thomas called her to begin with. So I really get this crush of the week—she's definitely more than earned it enough!

She is probably THE person to make me aware of black feminism, along with Angela Davis.
I was an 8th Grader during the whole Anita Hill/Thomas debacle, and I was paying a little more attention than my peers to it. Maybe because I was pretty sheltered and had no cable, so the choices when I came home from school were limited. But also because I saw the intersection of race and gender every day, as an unpopular biracial girl in a lily-white school. I knew what it was like to be harassed and have noone believe you or step up to your defense. The old-boys-network is alive and well in middle school. In typical self-absorbed adolescence, I thought the problems I had with peers were all about me, that I wasn't good enough, that I didn't know what to say, how to act, how to get peers and adults on my side. I think Hill showed me that no, sometimes it is NOT about you, that there are other forces and powers at work, and that keeping your head and your dignity are sometimes the only thing that keeps you going. I don't think I was able to act on it for a while, and I certainly took the next 10 years to get my voice.
But I found it. I objected to insulting and sexist remarks from a college professor and peers during a high school summer program with mixed results. I didn't quite have my voice down yet. Spoke out against an adjunct professor during college who was obviously staring and hovering around 2 other students, making sexist comments (at an all girls school? seriously?), and showing racial bias at the same time against the 3 minority students in the class – it took all semester, and it was hard to document, but that was his last and only semester at my college. I found my voice. And I think Anita Hill was one of those vocal coaches.

Synthetics are BANNED
Synthetic relaxation products became a huge trend for folks who wanted to experience relaxation effects but dont want to or cant consume certain substances. Many dont live in a state where its legally available even by a prescription. So naturally the synthetic products became a first choice for many. However, the Govt. recently banned the use, possession & distribution of these products due to many reasons, the largest was that there was no control over what goes into them. Nobody knows what they were made of and what you were inhaling.
This has left a huge void in the market for those who still want to use legal relaxation products. This is also a great time to give Mellow Munchies a try. You can experience a nice smooth relaxing feeling from our brownies, It's legal and it's safe and it is quickly becoming the choice of many who dont have access to other things. The ingredients are are simple, It's a chocolate supplement made with Melatonin, RoseHips, Valerian Root & Passion Flower. We arent gonna lie and say that this is a health food snack...but its ingredients are printed right on the package, you know exactly what your are getting. Our relaxation blend is made from extracts that are all found in nature...not synthetic unknown chemicals from foreign labs.

khjunkie | #1051 Subject: Biggest gaming influence Posted: 02/27/2007 16:52:40 |
It's a toss up between my parents and grandparents. My grandparents actually got an Atari 2600. I don't really think it was for us kids because if I remember correctly they either got it when I was 5 or 7. I only had one other sibling at the time and he's 3 years younger than me so I really doubt they got it for us kids. Also I don't remember playing it that much. I think I remember the adults playing it more than us kids and we couldn't just turn it on and use it whenever we felt like it. I guess thanks to them I got bit by the gaming bug and haven't stopped playing since.
bombtrak | #1052 Subject: Speaking of grandparents and games... Posted: 02/28/2007 08:10:25 |
...I'm ashamed and I must confess. I sold my NES to my grandma when I was about 14 so that I could buy a SNES. She wanted it for the basement game room for the grandkids to play when they were visiting. Luckily, a whole generation of my cousins got to grow up playing Bionic Commando, Contra, Gradius, and about 25 other games. So, technically, I made the world a better place.
BTW...I just turned..gasp...30! |
RecSpec | #1053 Subject: My first gaming experience Posted: 02/28/2007 13:24:10 |
My first game i ever saw was Altered Beast for the Genesis. My dad bought one when they were fairly new. As a matter of fact i still have that game, hehe, its so awful. But gaming didnt take over my life til my grandpa bought me a sega game gear with sonic the hedgehog 2. Thanks grandpa, if it wasnt for you, my life would be way different, and by different i mean worse.
jaypink86 | #1054 Subject: I cheated my way througn life -_- Posted: 02/28/2007 21:22:44 |
I miss how easy it was to put in the cheats for the super nintendo and all the other old game sytems.It always left me feeling triumphant ...or like I had done something devilishly good like sneaking downstairs at 2 am to eat a peice of chocolate cake...Now with all the strategiey guides out now days,it doesn't seem as fun anymore...
CreativePlug | #1055 Subject: Posted: 03/01/2007 06:29:57 |
What was the best cheat? What game did you cheat at the most?
bombtrak | #1056 Subject: Easy question, easy answer Posted: 03/01/2007 10:16:54 |
The Konami Code, by far, is the one code I used the most. First on Contra, then on Gradius. Nowadays, I rarely use cheats until I beat a game. Then, everythings fair game.
PunkRockMacU... | #1057 Subject: I've never... Posted: 03/02/2007 00:50:37 |
used cheats... then again, I rarely sat through playing any whole game, lol.
graveyard748... | #1058 Subject: Cheater Cheater! Posted: 03/02/2007 05:49:17 |
Yeah, I try to beat the game normally, then cheat if nesissary. I loved the Gameshark pro for PS1, that let you easily create codes & doo crazy stuff, the gamesharks now kinda suk.
khjunkie | #1059 Subject: Honestly I didn't use cheats that often. Posted: 03/03/2007 21:40:37 |
We got a Game Genie and I remember the only game I usually used it with the most was Sostice. Of course that game was just too ridiculously long. I'd never heard of the game before my mom picked it up for us and I didn't know a single other sole who owned a copy of it until I met my husband. When I finally took a look at his collection of games I nearly crapped myself when I found out he also had a copy of it. Of course like me he said the same thing. The game was kind of hard as shit and it was way too damn long. If anyone thought that backtracking in games like Metroid or Castlevania was a pain in the ass this game took the cake. It wasn't that bad of a game obviously because the background music is still stuck in my head all these umpteen years later.
My brother and his friend used to use cheats a lot for games like Punchout and most Mario games and just about every other game they played. It was all about making sure they had infinite lives from the get go and having the best weapons and unlimited ammo to start with. I wish I could say I never cheated but of course that would be a lie and I think just about everyone does it because it's out there to do and I doubt game companies would put it in there for us to find out about if they didn't intend for us to cheat. |
bombtrak | #1060 Subject: In the "old days.." Posted: 03/06/2007 07:09:32 |
...and correct me if I'm wrong...but I think they used to put the cheat codes in for troubleshooting and debugging the games. You know, skip to a level to make sure it plays right, 30 lives so play testing would be easier...etc.
As for Solstice, that was one game I always wanted but never got a chance to play. I think I have it on my pc at home...hmmmm. |
CreativePlug | #1061 Subject: Posted: 03/06/2007 07:57:44 |
I agree...the codes were used to be able to test or even "review" the game later on in it's progress. I guess now it's just almost standard to have some kind of cheat ;p
*sigh* my website died..I can't host much anymore..nor do I have the time ;p But..we can always just discuss all this awesome stuff on here anyway ;p |

Okay...new question ;p What's the most frustrating game you've ever played? Or..if it's not a specific game...then what level of the game seemed to give you the most trouble?!
Mine last night was the original Tomb Raider (last level) for the Playstation. Dear Lord...talk about frustration beyond belief! It's so hard to jump back into that old gameplay after playing Legend for so long. But it was good stuff though |
bombtrak | #1065 Subject: Tough call Posted: 03/09/2007 10:04:51 |
I'd say either Shinobi (ps2) or E.T. (Atari).
Seriously. I have indeed played E.T. and lived to tell the tale. I was about 8 or 9, my buddy's family had an old Atari, and we tried to play it. My buddy said since I was good at games, maybe I could figure it out, but I kept falling into invisible holes over and over and over and couldn't get out of them. A completely broken game, now buried in the desert. Shinobi is just plain hard. |
bentiguy99 | #1066 Subject: Most Frusturating Posted: 03/13/2007 18:57:46 |
It wasn't the worst game I ever played, anything but, in fact many would see it as one of the best of all time.
Super Mario World I played it when I was a lot younger (a wee Mario playing 7 year old) and I could never figure out how to get out of the woods! Another frusturating game was Splinter Cell becuase there was way less leeway in the amount of alarms you could set off. It was still a great game however. |

Red Herring announces its Top 100 award in recognition of the leading private companies from Europe, celebrating innovations and technologies across their respective industries. Data protection specialist NovaStor has been selected for achievements and developments in backup and cloud technology.
Red Herring's Top 100 Europe list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising companies and entrepreneurs. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, and eBay would change the way we live and work.
"Choosing the companies with the strongest potential was by no means a small feat," said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. "After rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across Europe to the Top 100 Winners. We believe NovaStor embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. NovaStor should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was the strongest it has ever been."
Red Herring's editorial staff evaluated the companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation, management quality, strategy, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is complemented by a careful review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their peers, allowing Red Herring to look past the "buzz" and make the list a valuable instrument of discovery and advocacy for the most promising new business models in Europe.
Stefan Utzinger, CEO at NovaStor: "NovaStor started out as a technology enabler. Our software products to map individual business models in cloud backup and managed services have convinced the Red Herring jury. Our focus on local and personal support and customer services combined with cutting-edge technology make for NovaStor's unique profile."

Product 324/596
Many men pass through the doors of Matchmen, LTD, Los Angeles' premier gay matchmaking service. Trevor Hart and his staff have made more than one great match. Unfortunately, Trevor hasn't been able to create a match for himself, and when his ex, AJ Robins, the man who tore his heart out years earlier, comes to Trevor for help, things get complicated.
With a cast of characters including Trevor and his not-so-ex, AJ, Melody Michaels, Trevor's happily involved receptionist (aka Melvin Michael Mumerford) and not at all closeted rock star, and Adam, another ex-lover of AJ's, complicated doesn't even begin to cover it.
Between heat and attraction, difficult pasts and questions of trust, can Trevor and his crew manage to find a way past their difficulties and discover the love they all deserve?
Trevor looked insanely good when he was fresh out of the Country Club shower, A.J. noticed, just like he did every Saturday after their tennis match. Skin still a little flushed from their game and hot water, damp hair combed back, tan just shining against the white shirt Trevor wore. Yeah, Trev was a damned fine looking man. Always had been.
Unfortunately, that ship had sailed and passed in the night and sunk like the Titanic, but that didn't mean A.J. couldn't look. And Trevor was doing some looking of his own, A.J. noticed, but that was fine. They were friends… and gay, not blind. In fact, it was kind of encouraging that Trevor was looking, A.J. decided. Trev saw some of the best looking men in Los Angeles on a daily basis, so maybe the fact that he was noticing A.J. meant that he wasn't past his prime.
A.J. hoped so, anyway, because he was about to ask Trevor a favor. A big one. Assuming he could make himself speak after the way Trevor had shot him down the last time.
He sat quietly, only speaking to order a drink and lunch, then waited for the waiter to take Trev's order. When the guy finally left, A.J. took a deep breath and released it before looking up to meet Trevor's eyes. Trevor's surprised eyes, though he didn't know why Trev would looked shocked. A.J. hadn't even spoken yet, after all.
"I need your help," A.J. stated bluntly, determined to get the words out before they froze in his chest. "I know you won't take me on as a client and that's cool, okay? But I need to know. I mean, I don't. God." He sighed and took another breath, relieved to wait while the waiter delivered their drinks. "Okay," he tried again when the guy left them again, "I need to know how to date. Because this last week proved that I'm clueless and that's sort of what you do, right? So let me pay you, Trev. Whatever you charge your clients. Just… help me out, man."
God, he felt like an idiot. Who the hell didn't know how to date? Well, apparently him, A.J. reminded himself with a frown. But he really did want something lasting.
Maybe not something that lasted forever because A.J. figured that was too much to hope for, considering his history, but something… longer-term than a few weeks or even months. And that, he suspected, meant an actual relationship that wasn't based on how attractive someone was, or how well they were hung, or even how tight their ass was. Those things did matter, of course, but there had to be more to it than that. So A.J. was on a new path. A no-sex-until-he-knew-how-he-got-along-with-whomever path. The only problem was…
Well, okay. He was horny. All the time, damn it. So that was a problem, in and of itself. But he was determined, and while he hadn't had to rely on his own hand for all his sexual needs in years, he could do it. Had been doing it for five days and nights, God help him. And that wasn't the real problem anyway. The problem was both simpler and more complex than A.J. had expected before he'd tried his dating technique.
"I know how to ask a guy out and get him in the mood to put out, Trev," A.J. said, and he knew he was blushing. He could feel the heat rising under his own skin at just stating it so bluntly to Trevor. "I just don't know how to make someone want more." Because his last date, which had ended insanely early the night before, had gone less than well.
Any time a guy said "Thanks, but I'm gonna go, I think I left my clothes in the dryer" once the whole no-sex thing was mentioned? Well, that pretty much defined bad date, in A.J.'s opinion.

Like much of the science community around the world, Three Days Grace were amazed when Venus passed in front of the sun back on June 5, 2012. The group was so taken with the celestial event that they named their next album after it. Now, Transit of Venus has been released, and with it the band has resurfaced on Rock charts with the hit single "Chalk Outline."
No official video has been released, but the group did post the below lyrical clip for fans to tune into. No special eclipse glasses required!

The temples of Bagan in Myanmar. Abercrombie & Kent has discounted a small-group trip to Myanmar in October. (Karin Esterhammer ) |
If an African safari, Peru's Machu Picchu or the temples of Myanmar have been on your bucket list, here's a sale to consider. Luxury outfitter Abercrombie & Kent is offering up to half off on small-group trips to Africa, Latin America, and Asia this fall and winter.
The deal: Luxury Small Group Journeys, as the company calls them, feature top lodgings — whether that's a historic hotel in the city or at a wilderness camp — generally closed to larger groups. The accent is on a more personal, intimate experience with as few as two participants.
When: No set deadline to reserve; trips are available until they fill.
Details: There are a bunch of itineraries to choose from, provided dates work for you. The 11-day Treasures of Myanmar, for example, leaves Oct. 2 and explores Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan, Inle Lake and other parts of the country. The price is $4,245 instead of $5,595 per person.
The real bargain is Egypt & the Nile, with departures Oct. 4, Nov. 8 and 22, and Dec. 6. It's no secret that the country's tourism has suffered as it struggles to stabilize its government. The price of the 10-day trip is $3,095 per person, discounted from $6,295. One added note: Trip prices don't include airfare to and from the starting point.

Nelson Mandela: From 'Second-Class Citizen' To World-Revered Leader
When Nelson Mandela died this week at age 95, he left a legacy as one of the most important leaders in modern history. Mandela rose from humble beginnings to lead South Africa out of its apartheid past, and helped to keep the nation from tumbling into civil war. But before becoming South Africa's first black president, he endured decades behind bars.
How U.S. Activists Helped Push South Africa Away From Apartheid
U.S. civil rights leaders were among the first Americans to shine an international light on apartheid in South Africa. But calls for economic sanctions eventually led to wider actions, from college campuses to Wall Street. Richard Knight, project director of the African Activist Archive, remembers the role the U.S. indirectly played in South Africa's struggle.
South Africans Mourn Mandela, Celebrate His Life
South Africa's official period of mourning for former President Nelson Mandela will culminate in his funeral a week from Sunday. Mandela's death left South Africans with "a sense of profound and enduring loss," says the nation"s president, Jacob Zuma. His compatriots, as well as foreign visitors, are flocking in homage to the Mandela homes in Soweto and Johannesburg.
Mandela's Young Days Marked By More Radical Activism
A writer who has studied Nelson Mandela's life as a young man says the leader known for his grace and forgiveness, and for helping South Africa end apartheid while avoiding civil war, was once seen in a much different light. At one point, he even trained in guerrilla warfare.
'Cry, The Beloved Country,' And Nelson Mandela
The novel published in 1948, months before apartheid was made law in South Africa, gives a haunting image of a truly divided society. Writer Kevin Roose says Cry, The Beloved Country, by white South African writer Alan Paton, paints a picture of the world Nelson Mandela grew up in.

A 1W combo that's '90s incarnate.
The Marshall DSL-1C 1W tube guitar combo is part of Marshall's 50th Anniversary celebration. Even though there were several popular Marshalls in the '90s, the JCM2000 DSL100 Dual Super Lead became a truly iconic tone of the decade. Critics hailed it as "the ultimate Marshall" as it straddled past and present so well. The DSL-1C's dual footswitchable channels pay tonal tribute to that great amp. Featuring Classic Gain and Ultra Gain options with switches for Deep and Tone Shift for further sonic flexibility, just like the original. An output with speaker emulation, FX loop and Low Power (0.1W) switch add even more flexibility.
Call or click to take a little piece of the '90s with you.

Posted by Rabbi Yonah Bookstein
If you want your restaurant to prosper, give free food to the homeless. This is according to the anecdotal evidence put forward by my homeless friend Yehuda. Yehuda has been on the streets for five years in Los Angeles and can can't shake a heroin addiction. He lives on small change from kind souls … and restaurants. Yehuda once had a thriving window dressing business and a million friends. Today he depends on people's leftovers and meals from generous restaurants for his fare.
Yehuda taught me this important lesson when a recently opened, kosher-certified, national franchise shut down, much to the surprise of the neighborhood. The story followed an arc that Yehudah had seen before.
Yehudah began approaching the new fast-food sandwich shop that had opened on his regular stretch of road. They were generous with Yehuda, offering him a sandwich as much as once a day. The food went a long way to sustaining him, and a few other homeless Jews who call Pico-Robertson home.
The new gleaming store was packed the first few months. But as time went on, the crowds became thinner. Eventually, the free sandwiches became less and less frequent. The worse business got, the more they resented him. Soon they stopped giving him food. Within months the restaurant had closed its doors. A successful national franchise, on a popular restaurant block, with special kosher certification, was now a thing of memory.
If this were one isolated case, it would not prove anything. But it was not.
Over the course of these five years, Yehudah has seen other restaurants come and go. The same pattern of generosity followed by hostility accompanied the downfall of all those restaurants. There was one place that chased him out with a broom — they were closed within a month. It didn't matter that Yehudah warned them against treating the homeless this way. He warned them that their tight fist, would be their downfall. But who is going to listen to a junkie homeless man for business advice? Nobody it seems.
One of the businessmen that didn't treat Yehudah well, who subsequently opened a new shop after his latest one failed, began to see that Yehudah had a point. He started giving Yehudah food every day. Whenever Yehudah stopped by, he was sure to walk away with something fresh to eat. Yehuda said the business was booming.
I went to check this out for myself.
Passing by this establishment for the last six months, I can attest that the place is thriving. Customers line up for food. They run out of product all the time. The owner is happy, and the business, even in these times when small restaurants are really hurting, is thriving.
Restaurants often chase the homeless away, instead of inviting them to the backdoor for a warm meal. We, the customers, loathe their pan-handling when we are trying to have a coffee with friends. We resent them for interfering with our plans to go and get something to eat, and for making us feel guilty. Let someone else give them a hand, I have heard said too many times.
Prosperity is not deserved, but is a blessing bestowed by God. The Torah teaches that when a person puts out his or her hand, it is a commandment to fill it. Therefor it is not surprising that the Torah's economic principles can be a lesson to us all. Generosity begets blessing.
Hopefully, someday soon, our MBA students will learn about the economics of generosity, and restaurants that want to have a fighting chance, will adopt Yehuda's simple business plan.

Weekend Reading: The Damned, Apes, Simpsons and Tex Avery
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, Reviews, Television, Independent
Hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, power outages. It's been a wild couple of climate change-enhanced weeks. Let's play catch-up across the internets:
Cullen Bunn is having a career year and let's hope it's the first of many. The creator of The Sixth Gun got his Oni Press series, The Damned, picked up by Showtime for a series. He's already gotten The Sixth Gun optioned to SyFy for a series. If they both make it to air, Bunn will have two more shows on the air than DC Comics.
Apes: Rich Handley reviews the fourth issue of Darryl Gregory and Carlos Magno's Planet Of The Apes, from Boom! "BOOM!'s Apes run stands on a pinnacle, one sure to end badly for humanity." But all good for readers and fans.
Republicans: My pal Doug Molitor from Funny Or Die looks at 12 Republican super-heroes. My favorite? The Human Torturer!
Jack: Man, that's a lot of nice Jack Davis work that Michael Sporn posted. I really love those western covers, too.
Weekend Reading: Apes, Captain America and Spongebob Squarepants
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Conventions, Editorials, Movies, Reviews, DC Comics, Independent, Marvel Comics
If you've been following the post Comic Con International discussion about female creators and DC Comics, you should run over to Fleen and read Gary Tyrrell's take on the matter.
Apes: My pal Rich Handley gets himself interviewed at Newsday about Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes.
Fan: My funny book acquaintance David Seidman was profiled recently in Jewish Journal. All I can say is that the interviewer would probably be overwhelmed by the San Diego con.
Actors: Chad Michael Murray of One Tree Hill has written a graphic novel that Archaia will publish.
Comic Book Jobs: Checking Out Craigslist
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Conventions, Editorials, Movies, Independent
Despite the buzzwords that get thrown around, rich people are not really job creators, they're money-holders.
The real job creators are in the comic book industry, and some of them are on Craigslist. Here are a few to help you:
If you have a comic book store in the Los Angeles area, a low-budget filmmaker wants to borrow it for a short-film shoot from October 7-9.
Famous Monsters of Filmland in Los Angeles is looking for "a creative, self-starting Graphic Design Intern."
Comic Con International: Bone by Jeff Smith
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Conventions, Editorials, Independent
When Bone by Jeff Smith first came out as an independent comic book, I completely ignored it.
I didn't deliberately ignore it, it's just that my LCS didn't carry it and I didn't even know it existed for the first year of its printed life.
However, at the San Diego Comic Con International in 1992, I ran into my friend Wayne Markley who worked for the distributor Capital City. He asked me what I thought of Bone. When I proclaimed my ignorance, he dragged me over to Jeff Smith's table, introduced me to the creator and then shoved the issues-to-date in my hands and told Jeff I'd take them all, ring me up.
Wayne's judgment in these matters was always solid so I did as I was told. I bought them, read them while at the con (no easy task), loved them and duly thanked Wayne when next I saw him. And when next I saw him, a couple of days later, he invited me to join him for dinner on Capital City's dime.

Weekend Reading: Atlas Comics, Honey West and DC Comics
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, Reviews, DC Comics, Independent
Hey, anybody see Green Lantern yet? Anyone like it? Anyone wonder why Marvel makes three movies in one year and DC Comics makes one movie every three years?
I'm traveling this weekend, so it's a shorter run of links. (The last time I saw the Space Needle it was sticking out of Scratchy's eye). Enjoy!
Ploog: At Vintage Hardboiled Reads, August West finds a vintage hardboiled comic book: Atlas Comics' Police Action with art by Mike Ploog.
Abe: Francesco Francavilla shares his variant cover for September's release of Abe Sapien - The Devil Does Not Jest #1 from Dark Horse.
Honey: Ray Tate at Comics Bulletin enjoys him some of Moonstone's Honey West by Elaine Lee and Ronn Sutton.
Honey II: Steve Thompson at Booksteve's Library has some similar nice feelings about the Honey West comic book.
Weekend Reading: Gottfredson, Satan, Starlin and Comic Book Guy
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Collecting, Editorials, Reviews, DC Comics, Independent
I hope you enjoyed your free comics on Free Comic Book Day!
I don't know how successful the event is at growing the industry, but I do like getting a lot of free comics to sample - it's like opening up a birthday present and finding Christmas inside.
Let's see what else is free:
Comics: Lance Mannion visits the local comic book shop, on the streets of New York City.
Cowboys: At Western Fictioneers, Troy Smith lays out his favorite Western comic books of all time. Bonus: Son of Tomahawk!
Mickey: Mark Evanier got himself an advance copy of Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse: "Race to Death Valley" (Vol. 1) by Floyd Gottfredson, published by Fantagraphics Books. And there was much rejoicing.
West: I love this poster by Thomas Perkins.
Bongo: Over at Bongo's blog, Comic Book Guy runs down a list of comic book places where he'd like to live.
Weekend Reading: Dr. Who, Dinosaurs, Rob Hanes and Thor
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, Interviews, Movies, Reviews, Television, Image Comics, Independent
I was saddened by the recent death of Elisabeth Sladen who played Sarah Jane in Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures. Of all the reminiscences online, the one I thought the most touching was by her co-star, Tom Baker.
Dinosaurs: Topless Robot looks at the "10 Most Badass Dinosaurs In Comics." Something I created made the list, so naturally, I'm linking to it! Thanks to author Jesse Thompson for the shout out.
Royalty: Evan Lewis at Davy Crockett's Almanack likes Prince Valiant Vol. 2: 1939-1940 from Fantgraphics. "Amazing as the artwork in Volume 1 was, it just keeps getting better."
Toxic, the British humor magazine for boys 7-12-years-old is looking for a designer.
Toxic's subjects "range from games to movies to sports to loads of other random stuff in features, facts & stats, puzzles, jokes, comics, competitions etc. In short, anything and everything that's in a boy's life." And the comics can be really funny.
They're looking for a "creative and experienced magazine designer with the vision to help take Toxic to the next level of its development," whatever that means for a British boy's humor mag.
You'll be working "in close collaboration" with the Art Editor and the Toxic team.
All the usual computer design skills are needed, as is magazine experience. And if you have experience in children's entertainment, even better.
Egmont is a huge Scandanavian publisher with lots of opportunities inside so if you get in and impress, there's always the chance to move forward. Or you could just stay at Toxic and design pages of boogers and farts and Justin Biebers.
But do hurry. The job listing closes on April 26.
You can read a bit more about Toxic at Lew Stringer's excellent British comics-related blog.

Comic Book Jobs: Checking Out Craigslist
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, Independent
It's time to visit my favorite place that isn't in front of the TV: Craigslist. Let's see who's hiring:
Heroic Publishing in Long Beach, California is looking for an assistant for a couple of days each week.
A female model is needed for a superhero photo shoot "for a comic book project for class."
A live-action comic book movie needs an actor to play the villain. "Any stage fighting, martial arts, and certainly any acting background is preferential but not absolutely necessary."
1821 Comics in Los Angeles is on the hunt for interns. They're doing the Romeo And Juliet: The War graphic novel with Stan Lee.
A "Comic Book Group" based in New York is looking for the full run of comic book freelancers: pencillers, inkers, colorists, letterers.
Good luck, job seekers!

culture latest news
I went to the screening of The Amazing Spiderman last night and enjoyed it even more than The Avengers. I think it was because Peter Parker has more humanity than the demi gods and super powered ones. I liked that goodies weren't all good, and baddies weren't all bad; rather the lines were blurred and it felt more real for it.
I was surprised to see that this latest 2012 instalment of the Marvel classic - which is an attempt to reboot some energy and integrity into the lagging (albeit 3.5 million-taking at the last box office!) franchise - redoes the story from the beginning, rather than carrying on the story.
It is all performed in excellent 3D - some of the best I have seen - and I found myself actually ducking as things flew out of the screen. After seeing Ice Age 4's pretty average 3D this was refreshing. A particularly well done sequence was Parker skateboarding with his new-found spider skills.
Another technical change was that Parker can't throw his own web (which I always found a bit weird and icky) but attaches wristwatch-like engineered spider cables. I wasn't sure why the writers made this change, after all, if we can believe he's part spider, we can believe he makes his own web organically.
It takes the story back to Peter Parker (played by Andrew Garfield) seeing his parents leaving him with his Aunt May (Sally Field) and Uncle Ben (Martin Sheen), leaving behind a briefcase of scientific formula. Instead of Parker being a young adult working at a newspaper and flatting alone in squalor, he is still a 17 year old student with a photography hobby and a crush on the pretty girl at school, Emma Stone. Who wouldn't have?
I do think the previous Spiderman movies, however - with Kirsten Dunst playing love interest Mary Jane Watson - did the romance bit very well. Dunst played a broken-home girl who seemed a little too good/beautiful for the nerdy Parker played by Tobey Maguire, who was way over-shadowed by his bestie James Franco. In The Amazing Spiderman however, Parker has morphed into a James Franco (in hair, anyway) lookalike. We were surprised they didn't touch-up his chin pimples though if they can retouch off Rhys Ifans' entire right arm.
A note has to be made on Emma Stone - playing police chief's (Denis Leary) daughter Gwen Stacy - and her styling. I loved the fashion in particular the polkadot kneelength skirts, kneehigh boots, and a cerulean blue (very Devil Wears Prada) sweater with a velvet bow at the back of the neck she wears for her first kiss with Parker. Again, I think Kirsten Dunst's first kiss was better done, where Spiderman hung upside-down and kissed Mary-Jane from above.
More kisses.
Gwen Stacy's character, despite being labelled as a "pretty girl" by all and sundry, is not just a pretty face. I like that the women had strong roles in this (notably Aunty May) and Gwen shows brains (in the science lab making andidotes) and brawn (attacking the lizard with a school trophy, as one does.)
Yes, The Amazing Spiderman introduces a new villian, a scientist-cum-lizard with a dark side that takes over, as per the octopus villian before.
Below: never trust the friendly scientists.
I was happy to hear they named the 'elephant in the room' and made a joke about the lizard running amuk and having to alert the citizens of Tokyo in an allusion to Godzilla, as we were all no doubt thinking it. Speaking of jokes, it had a constant flow of good lines countered with visual humour. Of course, there was no shortage of heart-swelling moments of working class comradeship rising together above adversity such as that displayed by crane operators who are now it seems, the new firemen.
I'm sure they won't run out of creepy zoo creatures in this series, and the end set it up for a sequel nicely, with a mysterious figure taunting the villian. He'll be back...
The Amazing Spiderman
8.5 stars out of 10.

Goffstown police, fire describe department needs
In September, officials present their requests to selectmen. In October, selectmen develop their budget reflecting departmental proposals and, in November, present it to the Budget Committee. The Budget Committee then reviews the selectmen's budget, requests information from department heads, and develops their budget to be presented at public hearings in January. All in anticipation of the March 2014 vote.
Sullivan is seeking a proposed budget for 2014 of $4,786,624, an increase of 3.37 percent over last year's budget of $4,630,597.
"There are 20,000 calls projected for 2013, and that's more than we've ever had," Sullivan said.
Robbers are more getting more brazen, and are not just walking into the store and stealing from the clerk.
"They're now letting customers into the store and robbing them," he said, adding this could lead to a hostage situation.
O'Brien is looking to replace a 1968 Jeep forestry truck for $130,000.
He also wants to put $150,000 in an apparatus capital reserve fund, of which $75,000 was added in 2013. The reserves would be allocated for proposed future purchases, including a fire engine in 2019; two boats in 2016 and 2019; and an engine in 2023.
He said a committee reviewed the buildings and viable solutions.
The stations present safety and environmental issues, including cramped administration areas, energy efficiency, lack of storage, small apparatus openings, poor or no drainage capabilities, outdated electrical systems and no decontamination areas.

Does Congress 'spend' money on tax cuts?
Wall Street Journal's Steve Moore weighs in

You're watching...
Wall Street Journal's Steve Moore weighs in
Jun 9, 2012
Also in this playlist...
Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
We need to continue to cut spending no doubt about that.
And certainly you cannot reduce the deficit by spending tens of billions of dollars on tax cuts for the very wealthiest -- -- -- -- of course democratic senator Bob Casey from Pennsylvania as a Pennsylvania the beauty pageant I digress anyway I'm taking issue -- something he just said when you listen this again.
Spending tens of billions of dollars on tax cuts.
Steve Moore caught the same thing this congress actually spend money on tax cuts Steve is the -- senator bestselling author of the jungle.
-- -- -- -- Well look there -- two.
Every start about the tax -- and that and that and the fiscal cliff action or Ben Bernanke talked about that yesterday in his testimony -- it's so important for people understand.
There are two clips here.
There's one has the spending cuts that are scheduled as part of that debt reduction deal for any other is the big what we -- taxman got you know the huge tax increases.
My view -- -- that that tax.
Raising the tax rates would be a disaster capital gains tax dividend tax I think we're just hold back business expansion and -- really -- possibly cause a double the perception -- I think senator Casey is wrong.
I think Ben Bernanke is wrong I think -- the economists.
On Wall Street -- they keep saying cutting government spending is bad for the economy it isn't.
Because every time the government spends a dollar that dollar is taken from people taken from you -- -- -- Or from the bond markets and what about equating tax cuts with debts that's ridiculous I mean it's -- NY August because a tax cut allowed you to keep your own money or media keep -- -- -- people watching but it's.
-- leaves initially Washington and leads that's what money that was in Washington January we -- -- them but they.
They it and give it back so would leaves watching as the late and watch out no no no they don't give it back that's -- -- in I don't know I don't give me I'm just Rendell this is what they're saying but it's argument.
That it leaves lodges -- -- was behind -- just like you would the money would leave Washington.
For program.
Except what they are leaving out is that this is some of the facts from the taxes I mean the higher the taxes are the last and Sandler.
This for business to expand for workers to work I mean this is the whole problem.
With US economy right now when President Obama today said the private sector is doing fine and is -- I don't know why don't what was the -- for all my goodness.
Mean what's that about what is -- delusional statement and I think that -- that's the headline -- so he wanted to get in front on this today in this press conference was an opportunity.
Backfired it totally back yet because the headline tomorrow's going to be.
Barack Obama thinks private businesses a private workers are doing just fine.
And you know this -- I go around the country talking business groups.
Right now they aren't survival mode they are not that -- I feel when he -- stuff still 127 months were growing and and the spending that I've -- of the stimulus that I have it.
Is is showing that it's all working what do you -- I say that we -- the weakest recovery and it since World War II.
That the economy is growing at less than 2% at this stage under -- and it was growing at 7% three times faster.
We can do much better than this when we report what would you dedicated in doing is using entitled why weren't as advisor actually what I would the most important thing Barack Obama could do right now did put some juice in this economy.
He should have another press conference tonight.
-- they were calling off that tax increase.
I really believe but who wants to win best.
In a tsunami storm of higher tax rates on capital gains dividends small business taxes everybody as her survival mode right now.
They're hunkered down there worried about that that tax -- gotten Obama should take that off the table and -- you know what Bill Clinton was right and he said it right the first time.
That is a severe negative for the economy -- -- we should not do it.
Yeah and Bill Clinton take -- old if you know back copy.
Yeah yeah I think the other -- the you gotta you -- smack down from the White House like -- -- you don't -- like he -- right and you know what you're gonna see a lot more Democrats in the next few months making -- case -- knowledge about the time to -- this tax time about my -- that and and I think there's been on the -- soon because they've backed -- -- plans LaGuardia the end of -- -- Canada right.
Thank you very very much ready to be with -- know Steve more.

This Sejjadeh coaster set is inspired by the flooring in Eastern Mediterranean residencies during the 1930s and 1940s. Covered with ceramic tiles of various patterns, the floors were unrivalled for their broad repertoire of colors, arabesque motifs, and graphics. Juxtaposed, the tiles created a gigantic picture, which led to their common nickname of "sejjadeh" or carpet.

With such a wide-ranging international roster, we were able to mine some pretty exotic (in our culture, anyway) nuggets.
