Pattern: Archer by Grainline
Size: 2
Alterations: none
While I was sewing this shirt I realised I have never ever sewn a button up shirt before. Most of the techniques involved weren't totally new to me but it was a first nonetheless. I think I did pretty good!
There was endless fretting over matching up the plaid fabric, which was a total steal at only €1 a metre it's a soft cotton or cotton blend (not sure) not quite brushed cotton but it comes close.
The Archer shirt pattern has been around for a while which gave me a chance to browse through the various versions and pattern reviews. I noticed that on most the sleeves sit quite low, since I have rather narrow shoulders I decided to go down a size in the hopes of getting a more fitted look. It did not work out entirely the sleeve still hits a tad low and in hindsight I believe I'd have been better off choosing my regular size for a more relaxed fit. The shirt fits me perfectly however and I didn't need to make any fitting adjustments so I'm just nitpicking over details now!
I found the sew along posts most helpful in constructing the bits that were new to me, sleeve vents, collar stand it all came together really well.
Sure I made a few mistakes, I sewed the buttonholes in the wrong way on the sleeve cuffs but we'll just won't mention that ;-)
I added a little Liberty to the inside yoke, the prints clash together in a way that I find most pleasing :-)
It's not exactly a party dress but I still get to wear something new and handmade for my birthday :-)

Not nailing an OS to the hard drive > on cluster nodes has lots of advantages. This has been the subject for lots of Real Computer Science, some of it done by Jeff Chase and students here at Duke (including Greg Lindahl's ex-student, Justin Moore). See "Cluster On Demand" here: http://www.cs.duke.edu/nicl/cod/ (and there are various other links GIYF). COD is basically (as I understand it) a layer of automated "provisioning software" that takes a user's resource request (written IIRC in xmlish but I could easily be wrong), creates a one-time cluster boot image that satisfies it, allocates nodes from a large, generic pool, reboots them into the boot image, connects them with suitable workspace (part of the provisioning), and even starts up the user's job(s) on them. Or not. The provisioning is pretty much OS-neutral. Want a Windows cluster? No problem (licensing permitting, of course). Solaris? If it will run on the hardware and is supported, sure. Linux obviously -- any flavor, any size, licensed as needed or not. Ditto all the other free and open source OS's. If you have specific needs for libraries, tools, memory, processor count or cores, networking (and the needs can be met within the cluster pool) it will allocate nodes, provision them, and crank them up for you. One of several GOOD things about this is that your nodes GO AWAY after you are done with them. Doing top-secret work for NSA? Once you're done (especially with diskless provisioning) there isn't even a disk image left on the nodes to be reconstructed by means of advanced magnetic analysis... Provisioning really doesn't take very long any more. Diskless almost no time at all, but provisioning a full local boot image needn't take very long either. I don't know the status of this project, but just wanted to point out that this is going on and that one day we may yet see a full open source solution built in to Linux (as Linux is a very reasonable choice for a toplevel platform to run this). All of this can obviously be done by hand, but it's the automation part that is interesting. And of course the advent of serious VM with processor level support means that we will shortly have even more options -- a whole second way of doing it NOW is to create and provision portable VMs and run them under e.g. VMware or whatever. rgb > > -- > Doug > > >> On Mon, 8 Oct 2007, Robert G.

This week in badvertising through the ages, we head to the late 1960s to experience the poor decisions that were these ads for Broomsticks pants. In a move that was clearly approved by Pete Campbell, ladies want to play sexy games with men wearing boring slacks. It's fairly of the time and mundane, except for the extremely uncomfortable "Ring Around Rosie" ad. With all those men grabbing the half-naked women, yikes. Once you look at that ad, the others start to become uncomfortable, too. Just an all around yikes, and no.
Also, that last game? It's "Sherades" GET IT?

iPhone Coming to a Verizon Wireless Store Near You
It's official! AT&T's stranglehold on the iPhone has officially come to an end. Starting February 10th, Verizon, AT&T's chief rival in the cellular biz, will begin selling the iPhone, announcing their new agreement with Apple early Tuesday.
Not everyone's optimistic about the move. Tech know-it-alls say AT&T probably still has the advantage, provided they still plan to launch the iPhone 5 at some point this year. Verizon's decision to launch the phone on a 3G platform could also put them at a disadvantage as cellular companies continue to build out their more-powerful 4G networks.
Verizon's move makes the iPhone 4 available to its nearly 100 million users, at prices that are about the same as AT&T's.
Will you get the Verizon iPhone? Do you already have an iPhone?

Continuing their series looking at creating validators for various value types in variables, DevShed has posted the latest tutorial - a look at validating octal and hexidecimal values.
As you know, when it comes to validating incoming data, PHP 5 comes bundled with a powerful set of native functions that allow you to perform all sorts of clever validations on a given variable. [...] In this second chapter of this series, I'm going to discuss how to use the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter that you learned in the previous part, this time for validating array elements as well as octal and hexadecimal integers.
Their example loops through an array of values to locate the ones that match the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter and echo their value back to the user via a foreach loop.

'Ridge Racer Unbounded' Game Review
Get past the silly name and you'll find out that Ridge Racer Unbounded is one of the best of the series. While it doesn't feature open world gameplay like the title infers, if you prefer arcade-style racers (as I do) you'll definitely enjoy this game, which features an amount of destruction far beyond previous installments.
Unbounded's opening cinematic sets up a story of the poor rising to fight the rich in a fictional American city called Shatter Bay in the near future, the have-nots finally getting angry enough to take what's coming to them. (Imagine Occupy Wall Street with vehicular destruction instead of drum circles.) It's a unique premise that gets you amped for an interesting story that simply never comes. There's no story at all in the game besides that opening, actually. To start a race you just click on text in a menu, and there's never any explanation for exactly what your wanton destruction will accomplish. Is racing against a group of other cars, blowing them up and smashing through buildings going to help your cause? Probably not.
So forget that and just enjoy the racing action. There are a handful of different events you can attempt but the main one is Domination, which pits you against 11 other racers. While you could technically try to race clean and get to the front by driving safely and quickly, it's really all about smashing everything and anything in your way. Drifting, tailing other cars, taking big jumps and smashing through obstacles fills a power bar. Hit the button when it's full and you'll launch forward in a burst of flames that allows you to instantly frag (yes, frag) your opponents or blast straight through a building, creating a shortcut for later. You can't just go through anything- certain locations are highlighted when you have a full Power bar, and there's a handful on each stage. There are also some explosives you can hit and explode your opponents with- generally tanker trucks. It makes for a really fun, fast racing game.
There are also Drift Attack, Frag Attack, and Time Attack modes, which are all exactly what they sound like. The Time Attack levels though are actually incredibly exciting, as opposed to how boring and frustrating they can get in other games. This is because the tracks are specially constructed for the mode and full of jumps and ramps and other ridiculous obstacles. Really fun stuff.
There's also a "Shindo Racing" mode that encourages clean lines and not hitting anyone, so who cares about that.
The more things you destroy and the better you race the more points you get, which levels you up and unlocks new cars and stages. Multiplayer allows users to try Domination mode against real people, which makes it even better. You're given the choice of playing with levels included in the game or your own user-created tracks. There's a pretty intensive Creator Mode that lets you build "Cities", which hold between one and five custom events. Each event can be completely customized, and you'll lay out a track block by block choosing all kinds of terrains, cars, obstacles and more. Online players can try out your city and attempt to dominate it by getting higher scores in each event. People have already created some interesting tracks out there already and it's certainly a unique mode for a racing game.
All of this adds up to a title that hardly feels like a Ridge Racer game, for better or worse. It should be no surprise to find out that developer Bugbear Entertainment is the team behind the Flatout series. I can see purists getting annoyed at this new direction but I'm all for more arcade racers, even if this doesn't quite come to the level of the pinnacles of the genre like Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, Burnout Paradise or Blur. But with its multitude of levels, creator mode, intense multiplayer and planned DLC, it's definitely got a ton for racing fans to be happy with.
Rating: 8.5/10
Ridge Racer Unbounded ($60) is in stores now for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. It was developed by Bugbear Entertainment and published by Namco Bandai. This review was based on seven hours with a copy provided by the publisher.

The Artist and the Art
How much of the artist is in the art? Earlier this month, Thomas Kinkade, renowned painter of picturesque thatched cottages cozily nestled in gauzy landscapes, died at the age of 54, likely from alcoholic poisoning. It is a sad ending, a kind of ending that would never be found in his work, for in Kinkade's idealized paintings there is no conflict, no tragedy, no sorrow. His paintings represent a world in which human suffering is banished, an Eden empty of drama.
But when Adam and Eve are forced to abandon the Garden of Eden, the story goes with them. No one cares about Eden after they leave.
I am sorry for Kinkade's death, and sorry too that the man evidently experienced so much suffering. I'm especially sorry that he was not able to use his share of artistic talent to produce genuine art. The paintings that he (and his employees) offered to the public may, in their material nature and their marketability, resemble what we call art, but in my opinion such art is fraudulent, because it reveals nothing of its creator. Kinkade created images completely detached from the darker realities of his life experience. His paintings were his mask.
These thoughts were given special focus recently at a concert in Carmel featuring the Daedalus String Quartet. The concert, presented by Chamber Music Monterey Bay, was the occasion of a premiere of a new work, "White Water," by Joan Tower. "White Water" was commissioned by CMMB as the first work in a multi-year cycle of four commissions called "Arc of Life." The idea of "Arc of Life" was inspired by "Going Forth by Day," a video installation by Bill Viola that treats the cycle of living and dying through a series of compelling film portraits. CMMB Board President Amy Anderson was inspired by Viola's work when she saw it in New York in 2003, and when the opportunity arose in 2008 for CMMB to commission new work, she asked four composers to look at "Going Forth by Day" as part of their compositional process.
"White Water," the first "Arc of Life" installment, was given a sensational world premiere performance by the Daedalus Quartet. The piece opens with a single rising line in the viola, a haunting, exploratory melody that returns throughout the piece in several forms. The other instruments gradually enter, creating a texture of rising and falling that includes generous use of glissandi, a kind of liquid sliding up and down a single string. Later in the piece, a more intense rushing sound, evocative of the work's title, is produced through furious crescendi and quick, agitated bowing. Out of this mass of sound, the lonely, even small voice of a single instrument (the first violin) emerges, as if to wander through the desolate wreckage left in the wake of a deluge.
The work is brilliant, and I can't wait to hear it again (KUSP will broadcast this concert on Friday, June 22, at 8 p.m.). But what struck me most about this music was how much I felt to be experiencing the very nature of the woman who had written it. At a Q&A session before the concert and at an event the previous evening, Tower showed herself to be a powerhouse individual, driven and ambitious in her art, relentless in her pursuit of musical excellence, but not without an inner quality of vulnerability that was revealed when she discussed how difficult composing music really is. Yet this driven quality, so evident in the incredible rhythmic vitality of the piece, does not so much contrast with the inner sensitivity as it arises from it. During the performance of "White Water," I found myself feeling almost uncomfortable during the quiet solo violin passage. I wondered if it was going on too long, if it sounded too separate from what came before and after, if the voicing was too thin, almost fragile.
Later (and only working from memory, since I don't have a recording of the piece) it occurred to me that perhaps that extended moment of quiet vulnerability was not so much outside the piece's bigger moments as it was its truest heart, the kind of still, inner place that can be our most reliable source for bravery and action.
Art may have as many different meanings as there are people who experience it. For me, art worth caring about is art that tells us something deeply true about the artist, something honest and human that reaches across the artist's medium, be it pigment or sound or words or stone or the body of a dancer, and touches us, one beating heart to another. This is the art that lasts, beyond the life of its creator, because once it enters our own tender hearts it never leaves.

I know you've heard of the old cliche, "She's a daddy's girl." Well, when I was really little, I wasn't all that close to my father, but now that I'm a bit older (fourteen next December), I really like to spend quality time with him. So, I guess being a daddy's girl isn't confined to any particular age bracket. Besides, as I've matured, my father has turned into one of the most handsome, sexy guys I know.
Lately, my parents' marriage has not been going too well at all. I found out later that my mother was losing interest in sex and my father is one of those men who need their quota of pussy daily. He's a construction worker so he's always had a gorgeous tan and a slim, yet muscular, body that he keeps in great shape. Even though he's thirty-two, my Daddy looks years younger.
My mother must have been crazy not to want to jump in the sack with him every chance she got. I would have. If the silly bitch didn't appreciate what a gorgeous hunk she was married to, then she didn't deserve him in the first place.
Anyway, Daddy was as horny as a ten-puckered Billy goat, and I wasn't much better since I broke up with my boyfriend, Ricky, who I'd been fucking since he took my cherry when I was twelve... so I figured I should do my daughterly duty and help us both out. What harm could there be in that? All I had to do was let Dad know I wasn't the sweet little thirteen-year-old virgin he thought I was, and that I wouldn't mind some of what mom was missing out on.
I'd been thinking about him a lot while masturbating, wondering what his big cock would feel like sliding in and out of my poor neglected little canny. I just needed the right moment to get his attention and let him know I was more than interested in a little incestuous fun without coming straight out and saying it.
At every opportunity I wore as little as possible around the house, much to my mother's annoyance. Sometimes I didn't wear any bra or panties at all and would innocently put myself in a position where my father could see right up between my legs. I'm sure once or twice Daddy almost had a heart attack at the sight of my hot little twat poking out from under my short dress. For a long time he pretended to ignore it, but as I began to get bolder, he started to get the message.
I'd sit on his lap and grind my ass down over his cock- bulge or "accidentally" loose my towel as I came out of the bathroom past his bedroom door. Of course I was careful not to let Mom see any of this, but she was hardly ever home. She was always out at her club meetings or bingo, conveniently leaving Daddy and me alone in the house together.
The first inkling that my Dad might have been interested was one day when Mom was away shopping. It was the beginning of summer and I wanted to get a head start on my tan, so knowing my mother wouldn't be back till late, I put on my favorite string bikini and hit our pool in the backyard to get some sun.
My father came outside to clean the pool and chatted with me as he vacuumed the bottom. He kept sneaking glances at me when he thought I wasn't looking, but it wasn't hard to notice the harden I was giving him. I think that this was the first time that he realized that I was an available piece of pussy with a tight ass, firm tits, luscious lips and juicy twat.
I had shaved my pussy clean since I started to grow hair between my legs so my bikini lines didn't show and the skimpy strip of string-cloth between my legs concealed very little. I knew he could see the outline of my hairless little cunt and it aroused me immensely to show it off to him. I lay in the most subtly seductive poses I could think of, without being too obvious.
Playing it to the hilt, I let my legs fall open a little more than usual as I talked to him, running my hands sensually up and down my thighs every time he looked at me and pulling down my bikini tops to just above my nipples. Then, after he'd got a good, long look at my tits, I rolled over to show him my ass.
Under the pretext of getting comfortable, I spread my legs slightly and lifted my hips a bit, knowing that my plump little mound showed clearly through the fabric covering my crotch, and my young cuntslit would be framed nicely by my firm, creamy buns. Daddy was panting like a schoolboy by that stage, so I decided to really give him something to look at.
"Do you mind if I take off my top, Daddy?" I asked innocently. "I don't want to get any tan lines this summer."
"Umm... sure, honey!" he stammered, pretending not to be too interested, but I could see him swallow and lick his lips nervously.
When I removed my bikini-top and released my pert young tits, I heard Daddy gasp. I even lay back and arched my back slightly so he could get a better look. He was trying not to stare, but my perfect little breasts were like a magnet to him. I was getting excited just knowing my big, handsome Daddy couldn't keep his eyes off my tits. I smiled sweetly.
"Do you think they need more sun, Daddy?" I asked, trying to keep my voice sounding casual and innocent.
"Huh?" he muttered, tearing his gaze from my chest with an effort.
"My boobs, silly!" I said with a grin, "Do you think I should tan them some more?"
"Er... no... I mean yes... I guess so."
One look at my bare tits and Daddy was an emotional wreck. I loved it! I knew my hunk of a father was getting turned on and it aroused me something fierce. My hot little pussy was getting wetter and wetter and the bulge in Daddy's pants was getting bigger and bigger. He must have started getting embarrassed, because he suddenly made some lame excuse about having to go back inside the house and turned to leave. I had to act fast or the moment would be lost.
"Yes, sweetheart?"
"If I rolled over, would you please rub some lotion into my back?"
My dad stopped in his tracks and turned around. I gave him my best daddy's-little-girl-needs-her-daddy look and parted my legs just a little bit more. He hesitated for a second, then took a deep, shaky breath and came over to me.
"Sure, hon. If you want me to," said Daddy, trying to sound disinterested. But the bulge in his pants that he'd been trying to hide was even bigger now.
I sat up a little so Daddy could sit down next to me and made sure that my naked breast brushed against his arm as I handed him the tanning lotion. I could see his eyes grow big, and knew that big ol' cock of his was doing the same. My pussy was leaking like crazy and began to ache with that old familiar feeling. I needed his cock real bad!
Daddy lubed up his hands with my suntan lotion and began to massage it into my upper back. I could hear his breathing pattern become heavy and erratic, and knew he was feeling like me, extremely horny. We were both in need of a good, hot fuck, so why not keep it in the family?
He rubbed the lotion into my shoulders and down my back, but stopped short when he got to my waist.
"Mmmmmm, put some on my bottom, Daddy. It's really dry, and it needs to be worked in. Do you mind?"
"Not if you don't, sweetheart," he muttered, "Lift your butt a little."
I got on my hands and knees and raised my ass, watching the look on his face over my shoulder. Daddy was just staring at my mesh-covered pussy. This close I was sure he could see the moisture leaking from my cuntslit. I wiggled my ass at him in fake annoyance.
"Come on Daddy!" I smiled. "Don't be shy... do it!"
"Huh?" His face was red and his hands were trembling.
"Rub the lotion into my bottom before I burn!" I grinned, knowing exactly what he was thinking when I asked him to `do it'.
He licked his lips again and reached out, massaging the oily lotion into my upraised buns. I loved the feel of his big, masculine hands on my ass, rubbing and stroking my taut young flesh until it tingled. My pussy was tingling too... for a different reason. I wanted Daddy to rub me there too, but I had to move slowly in case I scared him off.
Although, the way he was rubbing the lotion into my asscheeks was more like fondling than massaging now. Once his fingers even slid a little way under my bikini bottoms. I had to suppress a gasp of pleasure as his hands slid between my legs, but he was only rubbing lotion into my inner thighs. God, it was frustrating!
"Mmmmmmmm! Ooooh Daddy, That feels so good! Up a bit!" I moaned sexily, hoping he's get the message.
But his hands remained tantalizingly away from my pussy, as if he was scared of touching it... which when you think about it, I guess he was. No doubt the fear of being caught molesting his daughter was still buried deep in the back of his mind. I had to break down years of built up guilt in a matter of minutes or my dad would get `cold feet' and my plan would fail.
So, the next time his fingers went close to my pussy, I pushed my ass slightly back at him. Sure enough, his fingers brushed over my mound, and I couldn't suppress a soft moan. I did it again and Daddy's fingers stayed there longer that time, lingering for one delicious moment on my hot, wet mound before moving guiltily off to continue massaging my thighs.
After a couple more times, Daddy's hand was staying on my cunt for a lot longer and I could feel his fingers actually pressing into my cuntslit. I spread my legs wider and moaned sensuously... it was now or never!
"Uuuummmmmm! Please touch me, Daddy!" I begged, "Put you hand on my pussy and rub me there. It feels sooooo nice!"
"Jesus, baby! We can't! If anyone ever finds out... especially your mother... I'll be in jail faster than..."
"I want you to, Daddy!" I interrupted, pressing my ass back against his hand. "I want you to fuck me!"
There, I'd finally said it. Now it was up to him, but just to convince him even further, I reached back and grabbed for the huge lump in his pants.
"Ohhhh, God!" moaned Daddy, as my fingers wrapped around his hardened cock-shaft. "You're not a virgin, are you baby? "
"What do you think, Daddy?" I giggled suggestively.
"I think I'm going to fuck you, that's what!" grinned Daddy staring hungrily at my upraised little ass and cunt.
His inhibitions dissolved in a second as I rubbed his erection through his pants. Whatever fears or guilt that had been holding him back before were suddenly washed away by his lust for my hard young body. I moaned with a mixture of ecstasy and triumph as I felt Daddy's big hand cover my little pussy-mound and squeeze it forcefully. My cuntlips pressed together and hot pussy- juice leaked out into his palm as I ground my ass down onto his hand in a frenzy of lust.
"Uuuhh, baby, you're so wet!" he gasped, and he seemed a bit surprised that his sweet little girl could get so aroused.
"You made me wet, Daddy," I smiled, looking back at him over my shoulder. "My pussy is hot and wet for you! Are you gonna fuck me now, Daddy?"
"Ooohhh, sweetheart, yesssss!" he hissed, ripping off my bikini bottoms with a wild flourish.
I was in the perfect position for him to take me from behind, a fact that was not lost on my horny dad. He grabbed me by the hips and slid his straining prick straight into my cunt from the rear. We both moaned loudly at the deep penetration, but I had little time to catch my breath.
Daddy was so horny, he began pumping his cock into my tight, hairless little pussy like a piston. He must have been exceptionally aroused, because he fucked me like a wild man. My ass shook and my tits jiggled almost painfully as Daddy plowed into me with jackhammer strokes.
His big cock was stretching my poor little fuckhole much wider than Ricky's boyish prick had ever done, and his huge balls slapped against my clit, pushing me quickly towards a powerful orgasm. Another couple of strokes of my Daddy's thick cock and I was cumming like crazy. I pushed my cunt back at his cock and arched my back, squealing and whimpering so loud it was a wonder the whole neighborhood didn't hear me.
Daddy kept slamming into me, fucking me through my orgasm as his own climax began to build rapidly. I heard him snort and felt his pistoning cock swell even bigger as he came with a shudder, filling my thirteen-year-old cunt with his incestuous seed.
"Ohhhh! Ohhhh, shit! You gorgeous little fuck!" groaned Daddy, as he emptied his balls into my still-convulsing twat.
We slumped forward with Daddy on top of me, his twitching prick still buried deeply in my hairless, cum- drenched little fuckhole. I was squashed beneath his big, muscular body, but I didn't care.... my wonderful, handsome Daddy had fucked me and made me come like I'd never EVER come before. I was hooked! I was about to roll over and let Daddy fuck me again, when we heard Mom's car in the driveway.
"Shit!" bellowed Dad, pulling his semi-hard cock out of my pussy and shoving it back into his pants. "Get your clothes back on quick, sweetheart!... Your mother's home!"
I scrambled into my bikini and lay back on the pool chair just in time, as Mom came looking for us. Dad was standing by the edge of the pool fishing out leaves and I was lying back lazily on the chair with my towel around my waist by the time Mom arrived. We both waved to her nonchalantly but underneath our hearts were pumping madly.
To any casual observer, it looked like the perfect backyard family scene, but Mom would have shit in her pants if she knew that only minutes before, Dad had his long, hard cock rammed up my tender thirteen-year-old cunt and we were fucking like rabbits!
Mom was her usual obnoxious self and complained about how bad her day had been until Dad gave me a conspiratorial wink and suggested we all go inside for dinner. Mom went in first and Dad and I followed. I knew after what had happened he would be watching my butt so I gave it a seductive little wiggle and was rewarded with an intimate little squeeze of my ass as Daddy silently let me know how much he appreciated our first fuck. I was determined not to let it be our last!

Jamaican Prime Minister Bruce Golding angrily struck out at media reports that described him as an associate of reputed drug lord and Shower Posse leader Christopher "Dudus" Coke, even as he promised to use a Jamaica state of emergency to root out the powerful gang leaders, or dons, that control large swathes of Kingston, the capital.
Jamaica's public defender said Wednesday that 44 deaths have been confirmed in the fighting in Kingston so far. Most of the dead are civilians. The fighting has centered on the Shower Posse stronghold of Tivoli Gardens in western Kingston, though Jamaican press reports said that Mr. Coke, who Jamaica has vowed to arrest and extradite to the US, had slipped out of the area.
Mr. Golding's fury was ignited by two reports. An ABC News report cited unnamed officials saying that the US views the Jamaican prime minister as a business partner of Coke, who's wanted in the US on drug trafficking charges. An article in The Independent described the Shower Posse as an annex of Golding's ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP).
"Both publications, by seeking to link (Golding) personally with the alleged drug kingpin, were clearly part of a conspiracy to undermine the duly elected government of Jamaica," Golding's office said in a statement. "The Prime Minister said the reports have made damaging and libelous assertions and he repudiated the scurrilous and malicious reporting, which he said must be dismissed with the contempt that it deserves."
The US has not publicly accused Golding of anything, but its public communications have grown more forceful toward the ruling party. Golding only agreed to extradite Coke last week after fighting US efforts for nine months. He also publicly apologized to Jamaica for having paid $50,000 to a powerful law firm to lobby the US government to drop its extradition demands over Coke.
"Delays in proceeding with the significant extradition request for a major alleged narcotics and firearms trafficker who is reported to have ties to the ruling Jamaica Labour Party, and subsequent delays in other extradition requests, have called into question Kingston's commitment to law enforcement cooperation with the US," the State Department said in a report on narcotics trafficking in March.
Garrison ties
The ruling JLP has longstanding ties to the Shower Posse and the dons that rule many of Kingston's poorest neighborhoods. The gang's home base of Tivoli Gardens is practically the prototype for the so-called garrison communities that both the JLP and its rival, the People's National Party (PNP) have set up with the help of gunmen to deliver large blocks of votes and safe seats in parliament.
Tivoli was built as a public housing project in the mid-1960s by then JLP Prime Minister Edward Seaga. Mr. Seaga had a slum in west Kingston, inhabited mostly by supporters of the rival PNP, destroyed and replaced with new housing for loyalists of his party – some were gunmen used by the party to intimidate voters come election time. That helped establish a pattern in Jamaica politics, with the PNP developing neighborhoods for its own supporters and allied gangsters when in power.
Tivoli has solidly supported the JLP ever since, and is part of Golding's own constituency. Lester "Jim Brown" Coke, a former Shower Posse leader, Tivoli don, and Dudus Coke's father, was burned to death in his cell in 1992 while awaiting extradition to the US. Mr. Seaga -- Golding's predecessor as head of the JLP and a former prime minister -- attended the funeral.
This reporter spent a week in Kingston meeting with former and current gangsters in June 2009, many of whom described the ways in which politicians rely on the dons for electoral muscle. The dons, they said, in turn became government patronage conduits to voters and were allowed to run protection and other rackets. The impunity of dons like Coke have given Jamaica one of the highest per capita murder rates in the world. But to many of their followers in Jamaica's slums, they are protectors -- power brokers who can be turned to for help securing a government job, paying a debt, or simply putting food on the table in tough times.
Nevertheless, Golding is now vowing to bust up the gangs. While the state of emergency declared in Kingston is temporary, and has been focused on the violence of Coke's followers as he fights extradition, both the prime minister and opposition leader Portia Simpson Miller of the PNP said the military should be used to go after more dons and their followers.
"During this period of public emergency, a concerted effort will be made to go after the criminal gunmen in whatever community they may be ensconced," Golding told legislators. The state of emergency will not be restricted to dealing with Coke "because there is a general pattern of criminality, lawlessness and the kind of criminality that is not unwilling to confront and challenge the institutions of authority in the State."
