Access is the "disability ministry" of McLean Bible Church. While the word "disability" is used, we prefer to think of Access as a ministry of "possibilities" not defined by what can't be done but rather by what all individuals regardless of ability level can achieve in God's house. We believe in Access to God for all His people and celebrate our uniqueness and differences. It is our hope to develop all people into fully-devoted followers of Christ, integrated into the church.
Access began in 1996 with a Sunday school class of four children diagnosed with various disabilities, who were not able to attend typical classes. Today, Access serves over 500 families of children with special needs in the Washington, DC, area each year. Access Ministry has a holistic approach to care for individuals with disabilities and their families by providing spiritual, physical and emotional care. We accomplish this through an incredibly passionate staff and core group of volunteers with servant hearts.
Access is dedicated to making a lasting impact upon the disability community with the Message of Jesus Christ. Here are the Core Values of MBC Access:
- People of all abilities matter to God and to us.
- We will have an evangelistic impact on the disability community through proactive outreach.
- We will make the Gospel Message of Jesus Christ accessible to people of all abilities.
- Our goal is to equip people with disabilities and their families to become full participants and contributors in the body of Christ and their communities.
- Everything we do for Christ will be done with excellence.

Did you know that the United States is not the only major North American country having national elections this fall? Canada is, too, and they have many of the same debates we do here over things like how Catholic politicians should vote on the important social justice and life issues of the day. We had a story yesterday (which you can read here) giving a glimpse of how that debate plays out in Canada, where elections will take place Oct. 14.
And where the American bishops have issued a call for "Faithful Citizenship" for U.S. Catholic voters, the Canadian bishops have similar advice for their Catholic citizens in a new "Federal Election 2008 Guide."
But just because we Americans are largely ignoring the Canadian elections (quick: name for me two of the major Canadian political parties) doesn't mean that the Canadians are ignoring us. Our good friend Joe Sinasac, publisher and editor of The Catholic Register in Toronto, wrote this yesterday:
We know Canadians love hearing about the American election. Barack Obama and Sarah Palin are just way more interesting than our blancmange politicians up here.
(Note to self: look up "blancmange" on the Internet.)
Joe's point to his Canadian readers was to plug our new CNS Election 2008 page as a way of getting "a truly Catholic perspective on the U.S. campaign." Nice guy that he is, he said that CNS had "compiled a truly impressive Web site for its election articles."
So it's only fair that we plug his paper's "Election Canada '08" page, too. If you're the least bit curious about how the church in other countries, in the words of the The Catholic Register, "views the duty of Catholic voters and politicians," make sure you spend some time there.

As a librarian, I hate to send to send my patrons to more than one place to find information. But when dealing with genealogy research, I often need direct people to multiple resources to help folks find what they need.
Which is why I decided to take a look at BillionGraves.com.
Hailed by a growing number of bloggers and websites as 'A Website to Watch', BillionGraves.com has a goal of providing a catalog of, (you guessed it!) one billion graves. This is a free site which provides headstone pictures & transcription, cemetery information, mapping, and other resources for researchers.
On the main page (pictured on the right), you'll find a simple headstone search box in the bottom left side of the website. You can search by Given Name, Family Name, Birth Year and Death Year. There are also advanced search options available. The name search is pretty flexible, and allows for a diverse spelling of the name you're researching. If you can't find what you're looking for, don't despair. By registering with the site, you can request photographs and names from cemeteries around the world. And that, dear genies, is where the volunteers have the most impact.
BillionGraves.com – Things to Know Before You Begin Volunteering
1) To keep the site free and successful, volunteers participate in the transcription and survey services. Registration is easy and free. You can register for an account by submitting a username, e-mail address, and a password.
2) On your profile page, you can change your location, profile picture, and other login information. There are several great tutorials and guides which can help you become acquainted with the site.
From this page, you can peruse the Request Board from people all over the world who need photo and transcription assistance. Your request board is geographically set by your city and zip code, so make sure to change your location right away when signing in for the first time.
You'll also be able to see your personal tally of transcriptions, photos, and cemetery additions. And if you're wondering where your contributions stand, you can left click on the 'Leaderboard' link to view a list of contributors. Several of the top transcribers were submitting over 6,000 records by the end of the month!
3) Left Click on the 'Transcribe' tab to begin your transcription work. The transcription record itself is very simple. In the yellow 'Buried Here' heading type in the given name, family name, birth and death information. The input fields allow you to easily type in a month, day, and year, so you are not required to use the drop-down fields. This is very handy for transcription purposes! If more than one person is named on the stone, you can 'Add Individual' to the record. An 'Add Description' tab is also available to insert epitaphs or engravings.
4) When you've finished your entry, left click on the green 'Save' button. The record will be saved and you'll have the option to transcribe another headstone.
Surveying a Cemetery? There's an App for That!
If you're looking for a way blend your own research while making use of that new smart phone in your pocket, download the BillionGraves app! Left click on the 'Participate' tab located on the main page, and you'll find several guides which will walk you through the download and app usage process. The guides are available in a PDF format, and are easily printable if you need to share them with a group.
Verdict – If you're looking for a simple and easy way to contribute to the area of cemetery research, give BillionGraves a try. It's simple, addictive, and makes great use of technology. As this is a growing collection, do not discredit the offerings of sites such as Find A Grave or Internment.net. Just as there are mutliple vital records websites, BillionGraves is the tech savvy new kid in the cemetery research community.

Accommodation: Taj Princess Hotel Day 2 Sightseeing in Old Delhi. Overnight train to Jodhpur We arrive in Delhi in the morning where we will transfer to our hotel. We delve into the hustle and bustle of Delhi with our tour guide. Today we have a morning sightseeing in Old Delhi including the famous Red Fort and Jama Masjid (India's largest mosque). In New Delhi we see the fine colonial buildings, as we drive through the area, built by the British Raj in the early years of the 20th century and set in spa-cious tree-lined boulevards; these now house various Indian governmental departments. Later in evening transfer to railway station to catch train to Jodhpur by Mewar Exp Dep: 21:15Hrs Arr: 07:50Hrs.

Mehrangarh, located in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, is one of the largest forts in India. Built around 1460 by Rao Jodha, the fort is situated 410 feet above the city and is enclosed by imposing thick walls. The Jaswant Thada is a cenotaph built by Maharaja Sardar Singh of Jodhpur State in 1899 in memory of his father, Maharaja Jaswant Singh II. Accommodation: Sri Ram International Day 4 Udaipur We drive to Udaipur in the morning and visit Ranakpur on route.

Accommodation: Paras Mahal Day 6 Drive to Jaipur We drive to the capital of Rajasthan, Jaipur (approx. 5‐6 hrs). Rajah Jai Singh decided to abandon his nearby fortress and palace at Amber in 1727 and laid out a planned city of broad avenues, built of sandstone and painted pink at a later stage. The 'Pink City of Jaipur' is one of the most attractive andcolourful cities in India. We check into the hotel for the evening. Accommodation: Heritage Palace Day 7 Jaipur Sightseeing Today we explore Jaipur, returning to the hotel after lunch. In the centre of Jaipur is one of the most intriguing sights of India, the observatory of Jai Singh. This is an assembly of immense astronomical instruments, including the world's largest sundial at 27m tall and just two seconds out! Others are made of marble and brass and all provide some fantastic photo opportunities. A few miles from the main city is the splendid Amber Palace, rising above a lake. The imposing hilltop fort contains large courtyards and interiors with fine decoration. The rest of the day is free for relaxing, exploring or shopping. Jaipur is a centre of many handicrafts, such as wooden and cloth puppets, carved wooden camels, silver trinkets, durries (woven rugs), carpets, printed cloth, semi‐precious stones, leatherwear etc.; it will be difficult to leave a workshop without buying anything! Brightly coloured Indian clothing, bangles and bindis can be found at the markets, as well as turbans for boys (people will happily show you how to put one on!)

Another quiet period of writing, there are a few posts which are itching to get out but they'll have to wait for another day. I do find though I spend a lot of time just keeping up to date with some of the more prolific bloggers and tweeters in this space such as Pie, Lee and Marko, Ron and Cheryl to name only a few.
Firstly I promise not to break into another post on the E in ECM, there are enough posts and tweets about this in the past to keep you busy but it has been discussed again at length over Twitter.
Three things of interest to me have cropped up in the past couple of weeks which are worth more than a Tweet response:
The Fallout from Info 360 and AIIM in the US
I'm only going on reading what people commented on the event but the things I took from it were:
- BOX emerging as a viable complementary solution to traditional ECM players. I've not completely got my head round the model and implications but the idea of being able to collaborate outside the firewall with other organisations and have that content linked back into your central repository is appealing. That comment is based on talking to customers as well as my own predictions. This is something definitely to look into in more detail.
- Buzzwords of Cloud, Social and Engagement. (Thanks to @ldallasBMOC for answering my question on what the buzzwords were at the event). Cloud is definitely something I am seeing increasingly as a discussion point, and it is starting to come across more and more in some of the delivery models. Social is something which is ahead of Cloud in its impact on the World Stage but I would suggest behind in the way we are dealing with it in Content Management.
- An emergence of EMC. Yes the event heralded the departure of Whitney Tidmarsh from EMC but it also saw Jeetu Patel present their vision for the future. This vision was first seen at the Momentum conference in Lisbon last year so this was perhaps the first time it was presented in such a public forum in the US. I was pleased to see this last year and I heard positive vibes from people at Info360 this year. The trick for EMC is now to deliver on that vision and to deliver in a timely fashion or at least to keep the excitement high in the period while we wait, 'doing a Centerstage' would be a problem for EMC.
An increase in SharePoint apathy
Now this is only an observation but I am seeing an increase in the number of posts and tweets which are advocating the approach that there is a limit to what should be done with SharePoint. Note the emphasis on should. Most people know how great a product SharePoint is and how it has helped to raise the game of other Content Management players by bringing Content Management more and more to the masses. The big thing though has been an increase in using SharePoint as a solution platform, extending the product to meet much more functionally rich and diverse needs. Now I am not saying this is not possible but there is a point at which you need to start to question whether this is the right thing to do. It is when this line is crossed that complexity and costs rise to a point which is seeing people start to question SharePoint. If you know what you intend to use SharePoint for and are clear on when it should not be used then this apathy can be avoided. This is easily solved through having a very clear roadmap or strategy.
Improved User Experience to be a game changer
This observation is following a post from Brilliant Leap. Now I agree with some of the points in the post about the delays in Centerstage causing EMC to lose market share and also about the consumerization of IT having an impact in the Content Management space. What I don't agree with though is that this is a Game Changer in the Content Management space. (Note that the post paraphrases this from a presentation at Info360 and is not necessarily claiming it is the Game Changer). Maybe it is a semantic thing on the term User Experience, and maybe I am being a little picky. Why? Well I think if we can remove Content Management from the minds of the people who are creating and managing it and move to a situation where that content is being created and managed for a specific purpose and it is that specific purpose which is driving then we will have a game changer. In fact I had a similar conversation with someone else recently who was focussed on the Content Management solution for an organisation, I argued that Content Management was not a solution but was a layer in the solutions which helped them. With this in mind I really do believe that CMIS, if applied correctly, could be a game changer in the the Content Management world.

Jean Paul Gaultier cannot stop gushing about his love for all things British — the punks, the humour, the tartan, David Bowie — all vital inspirations to the French designer.
But it took the Frenchman a while to come round to British cuisine — and some of it remains firmly off the menu.
"Now I love the food — at the beginning no. Apart from the English breakfast," Gaultier said on Tuesday, gently poking fun at terrible English food and Anglo prudishness as he opened the London leg of a major exhibition celebrating his three decades as one of fashion's best-loved rebels.
The show features 165 of his over-the-top creations, from Madonna's cone bras to risque bondage-inspired corsets to men's skirts.
Some of Gaultier's designs, like his signature Breton stripes, are unmistakably Gallic. But he said London's irreverence has always been his inspiration and his escape from the snobbishness of Parisian haute couture.
"It was my vitamin," he said, speaking English with a thick French accent. "I love the freedom of London. I saw it in the streets, the rock scene, the rock stars, the concerts. The energy, the character, all the people that are different, assuming their own beauty and character.
"In the London clubs they're there to dance. In Paris, they're there to pose," he added.
Gaultier — who can talk a mile a minute — recalled how much he was struck by the original Rocky Horror Show and the punk movement when he visited London in the 1970s.
Bringing that provocative flair back to Paris, the designer would inject a healthy dose of street sassiness into the exclusive world of couture gowns. One of them, a tulle ruffle gown worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in 2000 and shown at the exhibition, sported a camouflage pattern. It took 312 hours to make. Another bejewelled evening dress next to it adorns a mannequin with a green Mohawk hairstyle almost a metre tall.
Gaultier has always embraced the different, preferring tattooed, bald, curvy and androgynous models to stick-thin blondes. At the beginning of his career he posted a newspaper ad that read: "Non-conformist designer seeks unusual models — the conventionally pretty need not apply."
Lifeless mannequins will never do for the exhibition. Instead, organisers showed the garments on mannequins with uncannily lifelike faces that blink, stare and speak. Those modelling his extravagant mermaid gowns beckon with their siren song, and there is even a projection-beamed version of Gaultier greeting visitors.
At 61, Gaultier is as mischievous and energetic as ever. But with this retrospective — which has already toured New York and other cities in the US and Europe — the designer is also reflective about aging and the transience of fashion. London is the eighth stop for the exhibition, launched by the Museum of Fine Arts in Montreal in 2011. The retrospective, already seen by a million visitors according to the organisers, will be held in Paris at the Grand Palais in 2015.
"My view about beauty is not concerned with stereotype. Getting old can also be very beautiful," he said.
"The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk" runs to August 25 at London's Barbican Centre.

There was a groundbreaking ceremony last week at the Flushing Commons site that is replacing Municipal Parking Lot Number 1. Many think this new behemoth project is good for Flushing, others are skeptical or are against it all together.
Mayor Bloomberg and developers pushed hard for the project with building renditions of grandeur, and talk about how good this was for Flushing. But Downtown Flushing needs parking desperately.
The developers "cured" that problem by putting a large underground parking lot under the Commons site to hold about 1,600 vehicles. What nobody talked about is the fact that shoppers don't like to park in big underground lots. Shoppers who drive won't go there anymore.
The Commons underground parking lot is a nail in the coffin for drivable Flushing. No longer does it make sense to drive to downtown Flushing to shop. Why go thru the hassle and pay rates? Some European cities have fabulous underground automated parking lots that are popular and well used. Not here.
People, I for one, don't like to park in large underground parking lots with low ceilings, cramped spaces, with a gate at the entrance and exit. Not to mention feeling safe in them. And, I certainly don't like paying a minimum $3 for a stay that will only take me a few minutes in any parking lot.
The best use of the site would have been for a city owned 5-story parking lot similar to the one in downtown New Rochelle. There you drive in, no gates, park in a numbered spot, put your spot number in the parking machine at the mall entrance, and you pay for the amount of time you expect to use, be that 25 cents for 15 minutes or 2-3 hours at $1 per hour to go to the Imax Theatre.
When you leave you just drive out. There are no gates to stop you for a gate ticket and a credit card or cash payment. Consequently there are no lines to get out. Gated lots are nightmares. If you've ever gotten stuck behind somebody who can't figure our how to use the ticket machine at the Queens Center you would appreciate this kind of easy access lot.
At least the Queens Center parking is all above ground and has a safe feel to it. But now the gates there are unmanned and you have to prepay in the mall to get out. Now you get stuck even more when people ahead of you don't know how to pay and there is no gatekeeper there to tell them.
The loss of above-ground parking is sealing off Flushing to those who live there and nearby. I would rather drive toMacy's in Manhasset to shop because I can park right outside the doors. Goodbye drivable Downtown Flushing. It was good to know you.

Ryan Ferguson\'s Lawyer Takes Steps Toward Retrial
Related Story
KANSAS CITY - The man convicted of killing Columbia sportswriter Kent Heitholt in 2001 took another step toward trying to gain a retrial on Tuesday. An attorney for Ryan Ferguson appeared at the Missouri Western District Court of Appeals for a hearing to argue whether the 2005 conviction is fair.
The habeas hearing allowed both Ferguson's lawyer and a state prosecutor to argue whether the trial was conducted properly. Both lawyers spoke for about fifteen minutes with five minutes given to Ferguson's lawyer for a rebuttal.
Most of the arguments centered around possible Brady violations, or information that the prosecution may have withheld from the defense that could have affected the outcome of the trial.
The testimony of witness Jerry Trump was the main focus of the hearing. Ferguson's attorney said the prosecution did not give the defense information that could have helped the defense point out Trump misidentified Ferguson. Trump originally testified he saw Ferguson at the scene of the crime on the night of Heitholt's death in 2001. However he recanted that statement later, saying that he lied in his testimony and did not see Ferguson.
The courtroom was nearly full for the hearing and many Ferguson supporters attended. Ryan Ferguson's father, Bill Ferguson talked with KOMU 8 News before the hearing, and said he was very hopeful about the outcome.
He said more information had come out about Trump's testimony that made this appeal different than Ryan Ferguson's last attempt.
"We know more information now. We didn't have two people committing perjury. We knew they did, but they hadn't admitted it," Bill Ferguson said.
But even if this appeal doesn't go his way, he said he isn't giving up hope.
"We will go to the world court if we have to," Bill Ferguson said.
KOMU 8 News contacted Chris Koster's office for a statement, but a press secretary refused to comment. Koster has previously been a vocal opponent of a retrial for Ferguson. Earlier this year he said there was no new evidence and Tuesday's hearing was a bad idea.
It took the judges for the last appeal hearing more than six months to reach a decision.

The Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup brings some of my greatest soccer memories to mind. It's a tournament that allows adult teams from all levels of soccer in the United States a chance to make a name for themselves. Though MLS teams have won all but one tournament since the league launched in 1996, there are lower division clubs that pull surprises every year.
Hailing from Detroit, I grew up watching the Mid Michigan Bucks Premier Development League side play as giant killers to professional teams over several years in the tournament.
The fourth division team made up almost entirely of amateur college players made it their first season's goal to qualify for the prestigious tournament, viewing it as the easiest way to bring professional teams to Michigan. Aside from qualifying a number of times, the Bucks inscribed their name deep in the tournament's history when they became the first PDL side to defeat an MLS team, downing the New England Revolution 1-0 on June 27, 2000 in Foxboro, Mass.
The Bucks returned to Saginaw for the next round, falling on penalty kicks to the Miami Fusion, to after playing to a 3-3 draw with the MLS side. I was at that match and it was the game that absolutely got me hooked on this tournament and its value for all club's in the United States.
Full disclosure: I would go on to intern and then work for the Bucks from 2007-2009 after they relocated to the Detroit area.
I know what most Fire fans are thinking: "Why is he talking about a team from Detroit? Doesn't he know DETROIT SUCKS?"
Having lived in the Windy City for six months now, I've become familiar with that moniker, but I bring up the Bucks because they are the PDL equivalent to what the Fire have been for MLS in the US Open Cup since 1998.
For a PDL side, just qualifying is an accomplishment. It means you're almost certain to play at least one professional team and that experience is invaluable for players that are near making the next step in their career. In 15 seasons, the Bucks have qualified for the US Open Cup eight times – more than any other PDL side. They've taken the scalp of seven professional teams in that time.
At the same time, the Chicago Fire Soccer Club has made the US Open Cup a huge priority, leading all MLS teams in championships with four ('98, '00, '03, '06) – just one away from tying historic American clubs Bethlehem Steel and Maccabi Los Angeles for most championships all time. Overall the club is 25-8-2 in the tournament since 1998, with their win total also ranking top among all teams in the American topflight.
This Tuesday the Fire open up their 13th U.S. Open Cup campaign when the Charleston Battery pay a visit to Toyota Park. Those less familiar with the inner workings of U.S. Soccer may have never heard of the USL Second Division side, but it's a not a club to take lightly.
Founded in 1993, the Battery have played at different levels in the United Soccer Leagues, going from the First Division to the PDL equivalent, back to the First Division, before dropping to the league's Second Division for 2010.
Three times the South Carolina club has made it to the semifinals, most recently in 2008 when they took the scalp of two MLS clubs (Houston and Dallas) on their way to finishing as runners up, falling 2-1 to D.C. United in the final.
Oh by the way, these two teams have a tournament history. Playing at Cardinal Stadium in Naperville back in 2004, the Fire needed Dipsy Selolwane's 107th minute goal to advance past the USL side.
While the Fire payroll may be nowhere near any of the teams playing beneath MLS, it's important to remember that four of the club's eight losses in the Open Cup have comes against second and even third division teams, most recently falling 1-0 last year to the Wilmington Hammerheads.
Should the Fire win? Absolutely, but it's important to remember there's a reason this tournament is so intriguing season after season. Four years on from the Fire's last Open Cup title in 2006, the club is due to make a run this year.
It all starts on Tuesday.

We discussed how to write named JDOQL queries in
Section 11.10, "Named Queries". Named queries, however,
are not limited to JDOQL. By setting the
language attribute to
javax.jdo.query.SQL, you can define a named SQL query. A
named SQL query within a
class element queries for
instances of that class; a named SQL query outside of a
element acts as a column data projection.
Example 17.7. Named SQL Queries
<?xml version="1.0"?> <jdoquery> <query name="salesReport" language="javax.jdo.query.SQL"> SELECT TITLE, PRICE * COPIES FROM MAG </query> <package name="org.mag"> <class name="Magazine"> <query name="findByTitle" language="javax.jdo.query.SQL"> SELECT * FROM MAG WHERE TITLE = ? </query> </class> </package> </jdoquery>
salesReport query above returns the title
and revenue generated for each
Because it is a projection, it does not have a candidate class, and
so we specify it at the root level.
findByTitle query returns the
Magazine with the title given on execution. The code
below executes both queries.
PersistenceManager pm = ...; Query query = pm.newNamedQuery (null, "salesReport"); List sales = (List) query.execute (); for (Iterator itr = sales.iterator (); itr.hasNext ();) { Object[] salesData = (Object[]) itr.next (); processSalesData ((String) salesData[0], (Number) salesData[1]); } query.close (sales); query = pm.newNamedQuery (Magazine.class, "findByTitle"); query.setUnique (true); Magazine jdj = (Magazine) query.execute ("JDJ");

Vigill denotes vigilance
vigill is an Internet start-up. Correction, its potentially a great Internet start-up. And like most start-ups, we're in a 'coy mode' (read: still figuring it out!). Vigill will be focused on mobile apps/Internet services and vigill.com is home.
Whilst vigill can cover many things, at its core it watches over its owner and protects their identity (and ultimately their money) from theft, fraud etc. It even rewards you if your good!
Below are some words speaking to the brand essence of vigill.
Watchful/Vigilant - Close and continuous attention to your security
Security - Protecting your identity and your money.
Community – Fully engages the collective wisdom of the crowds
Personality – Warm, friendly, trusted, and social.
Rewarding – Spiritually (peace of mind), financially and socially rewarding. Vigill delivers instant and real utility to its users.
Vigill users will use both a mobile app and an Internet domain vigill.com.
Target market therefore is the broad church of the iPhone hue. Financial Institutions and Retail banks 'might' be a secondary market.
Must work well in the mobile app world. Thereafter ubiquity to work across multiple Internet properties (partner sites, merchant websites, bank websites, app stores), as well as the usual stationary and collateral suspects.
The logo has to work both for the 'vigill' name, and also be 'iconable' – for e.g. logo and icon share a recognizable theme – see here only for illustrative purposes only what we mean by icons http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/200…ons-handy/
• Simple and clean … less is definitively more
• Mobile App … which means that it can't be overly detailed or have a multitude of colors
• Contemporary … but striking
• Secure … not trivial, yet not foreboding
• ICONable … concise/contained
• Youthful … this is a completely new way in an old world.
• Not religious about the upper/lower case. We've mixed between both
• Not overtly hi-tech.

ONARCHITECTURE- Constitutional dust-up: Can you read the writing on the wall?
Early one morning last week, with the sun just beginning to rise over the Pavilion, Charlottesville resident Kevin Cox was preparing to make Constitutional history (as far as we know) by being the first person to defend the First Amendment with a toilet brush.
Fed up with the assorted graffiti and often objectionable language scribbled on the chalkboard, Cox– who walks daily from Woolen Mills to his job at the UVA Medical Center– has decided to make a pre-work ritual of cleaning two sections of the wall.
Cox has been photographing some of the more unsavory postings. They include the correct term for male genitalia, "penis"; a playground word for feces, "poop"; and a slur against African-Americans considered so objectionable that most newspapers decline to spell it out.
"I love the idea of an interactive monument that teaches free speech," says Cox, "but this just isn't doing it."
Besides disliking the sometimes bathroom-stall scrawl, Cox hates the fact that the chalk marks often make it impossible to read the wall's two engraved inscriptions: the text of the First Amendment and a quote by late Supreme Court justice Thurgood Marshall.
So, armed with his toilet brush and a quart of water– which he says is the only effective way to remove the chalk from the wall's rough surface– Cox proceeds to erase everything around the two inscriptions. "You can't get an education if you can't read the text," he explains.
Josh Wheeler, associate director of the Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression, which built and oversees the wall, concedes that the engravings get written over "quite a bit." However, unlike Cox, he doesn't blame people showing disrespect for the First Amendment; he simply believes they've run out of room to write.
"One thing that everybody underestimated was how much people would write," says Wheeler. "Originally, we planned to clean the wall once a week, but now we have to clean it twice a week. We're also looking into the idea of cleaning it more often than that to make room for more people to express themselves."
Still, Wheeler says he plans to present Cox's complaint to the citizens committee in charge of the wall, and they will decide if there's problem and what, if anything, should be done. Meanwhile, Cox says he'll continue to protect the inscriptions with his toilet brush and speak out against a monument design he believes is degrading to the First Amendment.
However, according to Constitutional attorney and Rutherford Institute president John Whitehead, the wall is functioning as it should.
"The First Amendment is there so people can obscure it," he says, pointing out that doing the same in other countries might get you jailed or worse. "Sure, it might be a problem if you can't see the text, but people can write over it if they want. I've got more of a problem with the wall's administrators wanting to change it."
Still, Cox appears intent on pushing for that change.
"Supporters of the wall seem to think that their acceptance of all the crap on here reflects a true embodiment of the principles of free speech," he says. "But what I feel most is sadness. I'm sad that the noble ideal of free expression in American life has been debased by a monument that serves as a platform for profanity, hate speech, vulgarity, and pornography."
As Cox points out, lewd and threatening expressions that might be unacceptable, even illegal, if they were expressed anywhere else are left to linger on the wall for days. In fact, Cox describes an incident not long ago when he pointed out a racial slur on the wall to an African-American city police officer on duty in the area.
"He read it and appeared to become very angry," says Cox. "He snarled, 'Well, there's nothing I can do it about it. We're not allowed to touch that thing.'"
However, the police are allowed to arrest someone caught writing specific threats on the wall. As the Hook has reported, pro-life advocate John Giuliano was arrested last December after he was seen writing a statement on the wall potentially threatening employees of Planned Parenthood.
Cox points out that comments he's documented– including "Kill the ni**ers," "I f***ed your momma," and "Kill the cops"– have a far more disturbing impact than comments like "Have a nice day."
While Wheeler admits that some expressions on the wall have been objectionable, even constituting illegal speech, he points out that the vast majority of what is written is not. He also points out that citizens are free to erase anything they oppose, and that threatening speech, regardless of whether its author is caught in the act, can be removed by the police if they believe it constitutes a danger to the public.
"Is it really necessary to tolerate this very public display of the foulest human language to protect our First Amendment rights?" Cox asks. "I don't think it's necessary or even a good idea. I'm also bothered by the view that this chalkboard is just a 'reflection of our culture.' It's more than that. It's also an influence."
While Whitehead doesn't share Cox's intolerance for those who use bad language, referring to himself as more of a "free speech purist," he admires what Cox is doing. "It's great that he disagrees. He's playing a part in the game, and it's a great game," Whitehead chuckles. "Guys with toilet brushes are what make America great."
Armed with a toilet brush, Charlottesville resident Kevin Cox intends to fight the "assorted graffiti" that covers the words of the First Amendment on the Free Speech Wall.
Free speech or obscenity? While chalkboard advocates say it embodies the spirit of free expression, critics like Cox say it's merely a "platform for profanity, hate speech, vulgarity, and pornography."

I'll be true. I haven't been playing this WoWP for long. I really want to and get good at it. I am fascinated with the A6m2 and it is my goal to master that plane, high tier be damned.
With only a couple horrible battles in, I'm still struggling to find a workable control scheme for mouse and keyboard. I am using WASD for roll and pitch but I need advice.
I do not have space in my rack and locker for a joystick or any other system and I read up on multiple threads a rumor that mouse beats joystick with this game. What works for the other pilots? How did you guys learn how to grasp these controls? What settings were modified and made the most difference? Anything, im desperate.
I am ready to sacrifice any knowledge I had about this game and be guided...

How to set up a login hook
Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4, or later
Note that with Mac OS X 10.3.x and 10.4.2 or later, you can use the alternative method at the bottom of this document instead, if you wish. For Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.4.1, you should always use the following steps:
- Open Terminal (Applications/Utilities).
- In the Terminal window, type:
sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook /path/to/script
(where /path/to/script is the full path to the script that you want to execute when a user logs in—it doesn't have to be in the user's Home directory).
This modifies the /var/root/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow file.
- Type your password at the prompt, then press Return.
Mac OS X 10.2.x, 10.3.x, or 10.4.2 or later
- Open the /etc/ttys file: In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu, type /etc/, then click Go.
- In the resulting window, open the ttys file in your preferred text editor (such as TextEdit).
- Look for a line that reads:
#console "/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/MacOS/loginwindow" vt100 on secure window=/System/Library/CoreServices/WindowServer onoption="/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"
- Edit this line so that it reads as follows (there are no breaks in this line):
#console "/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/MacOS/loginwindow -LoginHook /path/to/script" vt100 on secure window=/System/Library/CoreServices/WindowServer onoption="/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"
(where /path/to/script is the full path to the script that you want to execute when a user logs in).
- Save the file.
Be sure that the text editor you use to edit this file does not break the line above into more than one line. This method will also work in Mac OS X 10.3.

In 73 games last year, rookie Marcus Thornton averaged 14.5 points, 1.6 threes and percentages of .451/.814. "I'm listening," you decided back in August. "Not bad," you figured back in September. "Kaboom," you shouted to no one in particular back in October. Your random shouting was weird, but not your belief in the Holy Grail Marcus. In 2009, Thornton didn't see the floor until the ninth game of the season, he didn't start until the 44th game. "That won't happen again," you thought to yourself and said out loud once in the men's room at a Chili's because you thought there was no one there, then got all embarrassed when you realized there was a dude in the stall and he now knew how you felt about Thornton's role for 2010. He went from averaging 18 mpg in the first two months of his rookie season to 35 mpg in the last two months, then back down to 16 mpg through December of his sophomore season, getting traded to Sacramento and once again averaging 39 mpg in the last 24 games of his season. "What the eff," you mutter under your breath, careful to self-censor the cursing in case an unnoticed toddler is standing within earshot. Anyway, what makes Thornton a good bet to begin, middle and end well in 2011? Let me count the ways.
Actually, no. No need to count. There's really just one way: Per36. Thornton was worth a lot to your team toward the end of last year (22/5/4, with 3.7 stl+3ptm per game), he'll be worth less next season, but not a ton less. Playing with the Hornets as a rookie in 2009, Thornton averaged 20/4/2, with 3.4 stl+3ptm every 36 minutes. In the 46 games he played with the Hornets in 2010 his per36 was a similar 19/5/3, with a 3.1 stl+3ptm. Then he went off to Sacramento to be the second-year Tyreke Evans that Evans was too hurt to be and ended up with a per36 of 20/4/3, with a 3.5 stl+3ptm. Those are three very similar lines coming from three very varied (stutterer!) playing situations. This tells me the fault was not wit the player, but with the game. Last year in my sleeper post on another site, I said this about Thornton: "Only a team of utter buffoonery would play this guy fewer than 30 minutes anyway. I give the Hornets a 50-50 shot." I'm going to say the same thing about the Maloof-run Kings in regards to Thornton in 2011. It doesn't help that buffoon and Maloof already kinda sound like the same word. With Evans likely healthier in 2011 than he was in 2010 and DeMarcus Cousins one year closer to being dominant, I don't see Thornton's run of being "the man" in the California capitol extending into next season, but I do see him as the team's best shooter a solid third option and a player who once every few weeks will go off for a big shooting night. I don't think 16/4/3, with 3.5 stl+3ptm per game is expecting too much from a third-year guard on a team with (almost literally) nothing to lose.

Get DVD Talk Feeds
Oddly, though, the series was, like Republic generally, capable of a few startling surprises amidst these most formulaic of program pictures. Considering the last entry, the goofy Three Texas Steers (1939), had our three heroes (four, if you count Elmer, ventriloquist Max Terhune's dummy) helping out circus folk and their frisky gorilla, Wyoming Outlaw (1939) is a pleasant surprise.
Though it doesn't serve Wayne particularly well, the picture itself is an unusually grim, topical, mostly serious fact-based tale. It's more a showcase for Don "Red" Barry, who plays something like a cross between The Grapes of Wrath's Tom Joad and High Sierra's Roy Earle. It was the perfect vehicle for Barry, who became a leading man at Republic and other lower-end studios until the '50s, switching to character parts after that.
Once again, Olive Films offers interested parties another dazzlingly pristine high-definition transfer. This one has warping issues but like their other '30s John Wayne titles is extraordinarily sharp.
After the storm the trio realize one of their steers has been rustled and slaughtered on the spot, but that the beef has been stolen and hauled away by a lone (and impressively strong) man. Stony traces the trail of blood to the destitute Parker family, where young Will (Don Barry) steals beef to feed his family. There Irene (Pamela Blake), the adult daughter of Luke and Mrs. Parker (Charles Middleton and Katherine Kenworthy), resorts to stealing $20 from Stony's wallet. Stony, feeling sorry for the family lies to Irene's parents claiming she'd won the money in a dance contest.
The family is destitute because Luke and Will refuse to appease political appointee Joe Balsinger (LeRoy Mason), who'll only provide public works jobs to those willing to enhance his personal fortune.
But rather than focus on the Mesquiteers' efforts to expose and arrest Balsinger, the movie instead is concerned with Will's last-ditch efforts at honest employment, which are continually thwarted by corrupt local government agencies in Balsinger's back-pocket. Arrested for shooting a deer intended to feed his family, Will breaks out of jail and heads for the mountains, deciding that, if he's going down in flames, he's going to do the community a service and take Balsinger down with him.
Despite its serious tone and notably downbeat ending, Wyoming Outlaw was the highest grossing of the season's 82 B-Westerns. Reportedly, Will Parker was based on a real fugitive who had similarly fought graft while a wanted man, but details about that case are sketchy. Regardless, it was the perfect part for Red Barry. He was short, stocky and redheaded like Cagney, and like Cagney possessed a hair-trigger violent temper that, in Barry's case, spilled over into his personal life. He always appeared to have a chip on his shoulder the size of the national debt (as Rod Serling would say) and completely lacked Cagney's breezy charm. He was by all accounts an angry yet egotistical man (he committed suicide in 1980 at age 68), all of which made him an unlikely, unappealing leading man but perfect as Will Parker in Wyoming Outlaw.
The film's other big asset is its cast, several in atypical roles. Charles "Ming the Merciless" Middleton is that villain's polar opposite, a sensitive, dispirited patriarch. The great stuntman Dave Sharpe has a prominent but oddly inert role as Newt, a café counterman, while Yakima Canutt is more in his milieu as henchman Ed Sims. Screendom's first Tarzan, Elmo Lincoln, turns up as a U.S. Marshal in his first credited role since the silent era.
Video & Audio
Olive's video transfer of Wyoming Outlaw is another eye-opening, pleasurable viewing experience. Once again it's really great to see B-Westerns like these looking so sparklingly good. The black-and-white, 1.37:1 image is pristine throughout, with only minor warping issues inherent to the original film elements. Detail, blacks, and contrast are all very impressive. The Region A disc has decent audio, English only with no subtitle options, and No Extra Features.
Parting Thoughts
Considering it was such a hit, it's unfortunate that Republic didn't steer the Mesquiteers toward more serious topical stories instead of the increasing trifles made after Wayne left the series. But Wyoming Outlaw is a fine example of its genre and Highly Recommended.

It is for those who search out challenging topography and an escape from the familiar – riders driven by an insatiable desire to discover that which lies around the next bend or over the crest of the next hill… and the next one after that. The route to the elusive 'end of the road' is often unpaved, which is why the Search features a long, stable wheelbase, comfort-enhancing ARC design and plenty of clearance for up to a 40c tire. Wherever your path leads – and whatever it is made of – Search it out and ride it.
