Gospel-pop is having a renaissance and South London-based singer, Samm Henshaw is here to stay. With the success of his 2016 debut The Sound Experiment EP, Samm has since been touring and working with Chance The Rapper, James Bay, Pharell, Rag'n'Bone Man and Maverick Sabre. Casual. Now he is back with two singles, "Broke" and "How Does It Feel?" and returning to the stage with his highly anticipated gig at London's Scala on October 30.
Gospel, to Samm isn't just an influence, it's at the heart of his artistry, having been raised by a Reverend father, growing up in church and listening to the likes of Cece Winans and Stevie Wonder. He describes his style as a "soulful mixture of gospel and hip-hop", his love for Michael Jackson and Marvin Gaye coming through in his latest singles.
Listening to Samm, you can't help but have a smile on your face – his instrumentals and melody are intrinsically gospel in their production and feel-good energy, which he paradoxically matches with his darker lyrics. At first, you're left rather perplexed as you find yourself relishing in what is a rather sincere song. But like some of the greats such as Amy Winehouse, Samm finds the perfect balance between his dark lyrics and uplifting instrumentals, luring you in with his rich, soulful vocals, asking the listener to enjoy what they're listening to, but also to engage and think.
Is creating a gospel track a different process to other genres?
"For me, I begin with the chord progressions, melodies and instrumentals first. I like to know what the bulk of the song will sound like before I write lyrics. Sometimes it varies, but it's rare. With this project, I was inspired by early Kanye West where his music is happy, timeless, makes you want to listen to it over and over again. But when you listen to his lyrics you realise it's dark and about pretty real stuff. I wanted to use that same juxtaposition in my music so with this project, I definitely focused on the music first then wrote the lyrics afterwards."
What are your singles "Broke" and "How Does It Feel" about and are they autobiographical?
"Everything I've written has been personal. "Broke" was about having someone around that pushes you to being the best you can and prevents you from being lazy. For me, that was my mum always pushing me to be better, telling me I can't sit around and no nothing. "How Does It Feel" was inspired by the things happening around me that I found frustrating. I want people to stop talking about love and start living it. They talk, scream about it, say it's this and that, but when it comes down to it, they act differently to what they say. It's not just romantic love, but kindness and love for others. I see someone getting mugged and people not doing anything to help them because they care about their own safety. I want to see people showing that sort of love that isn't just kindness."
What can we expect from your next album?
"It's going to be warm and have elements of fun, darkness, emotion but overall, it's just going to be a very warm project. Sound-wise, it's going to be me: very gospel, hip-hop and soul. I've got a song called "Doubt", featuring Wretch 32 which I am excited about as he is one of my favourite British rappers. He was initially coming in to write a song for me, but we ended up writing it together and I think the verse he wrote is just brilliant. I just hope people enjoy it."


The ballet world was aflutter yesterday with the decision of Benjamin Millepied to step down as director of Paris Opéra Ballet, a little over a year since he took on the coveted post. At a press conference, Millepied cited the desire to be able to concentrate "100% on creating" rather than the inevitable administration and management that comes with the job. A former New York City Ballet principal dancer, the charismatic French choreographer shot to international fame for his work on the film Black Swan. His shock departure comes just a day before the world première of his La nuit s'achève as part of a mixed bill at the Palais Garnier tonight and a week before the new Paris season is announced.
"What's important to me is to create, to be inspired by the dancers, and today this job, as it exists, is not made for me," Millepied explained. He will return to Los Angeles to focus on his own choreography, as well as his dance ensemble, the LA Dance Project. He will choreograph two works for Paris next season.
Stéphane Lissner, director of the Opéra de Paris, enigmatically commented that Millepied "leaves too soon, but others leave too late." Former étoile Aurélie Dupont, who retired last year, was announced as the new director, taking up her post when Millepied officially leaves in July. She immediately declared that she has "no talent" as a choreographer and will not create any ballets for the company. This raises an interesting question and not just one for the ballet world. Can the director of a large international company juggle a management role with the desire to create?
It's a conundrum London has to consider carefully. In December, Kasper Holten, Director of The Royal Opera, announced that he will leave Covent Garden in 2017 to return to Denmark. Since taking up his appointment, Holten has directed a handful of productions for the company, as well as remaining in demand abroad. He is currently preparing a new production of Wagner's early opera Das Liebesverbot (The Ban on Love) in Madrid, which will eventually come to London. As head of the Royal Opera, he has been refreshingly open, deftly handling social media and engaging a number of European directors for new productions which have often ruffled feathers among audiences.
As the search for new candidates gathers pace this spring – that there are no obvious candidates is damning in itself – one of the questions is: should the Royal Opera appoint a director who wishes to direct opera at all? Should they appoint someone who wishes to stamp their own footprint on the company via their productions, or should it be a purely managerial role? For Millepied in Paris, the frustration of not being able to create (or unable to create as much as he wanted) meant resigning from his post. For directors such as Barrie Kosky, the brilliant artistic director of Berlin's Komische Oper, you could not imagine him not directing. He has very much made the company his own through his daring stagings which have garnered international praise, including "Opera Company of the Year" in the 2015 International Opera Awards.
But not only is Barrie Kosky very much a one-off, the Paris Opera Ballet and The Royal Opera are much larger companies and the drain on the artistic directors' time must be immense. It works both ways. Directorial activities also drain time away from the role of running a company.
There is also, to my mind, a conflict arising from the situation where the artistic director invites fellow directors to create at his/her company. What if their work is not good enough? Katharina Thoma's production of Un ballo in maschera in 2014 should have been rejected by Holten. It was an amateurish staging unworthy of the Royal Opera, the cardboard sets wobbling with embarrassment. It's much more difficult to bite the bullet and tell a director to go back to the drawing board when they are also a directorial colleague. What the Royal Opera needs is the London equivalent of Aurélie Dupont – someone who loves the company and can direct in the company's best interests, unclouded by the distraction of creating new works. Elaine Padmore fulfilled that role very well at Covent Garden previously, as well as at Wexford and Royal Danish. Let choreographers choreograph. Let opera directors direct. But let our artistic leaders lead.

7/1/2010—On Monday, June 28, the United States Supreme Court decided Christian Legal Society [of Hastings Law School] v. Martinez, holding 5-4 that a law school could refuse recognition of the CLS on the ground that the organization does not comply with the school's nondiscrimination policy. As reported in the media, the CLS does not allow gay to join. This is true but is not quite the holding of the case. The fact is, CLS does not allow nonChristians to join. It is true that the CLS defines for itself whom it considers a Christian and that in its view you cannot be a Christian and engage in homosexual conduct (or any extramarital sexual conduct), but the actual holding of the case does not seem to involve any such requirement by CLS. As I read the case, CLS would not be permitted by the law school to exclude nonChristians however defined.
It might seem to the average person quite ridiculous to say that the Christian Legal Society cannot exclude Jews, Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists and Atheists. I hope it seems ridiculous. This case should obviously have been decided on free exercise of religion grounds. This policy fundamentally interferes with the right to practice religion.
The reason not one Justice would have decided the case on free exercise grounds is that in 1990, in an opinion written by Justice Scalia (of all people), Employment Division v. Smith, the Court decided that generally applicable laws that do not specify religion cannot violate the Free Exercise Clause. It was an absurd decision and now we see its consequence—a government requirement that a religious organization must admit nonbelievers does not violate the Free Exercise Clause.
There were free speech issues in the CLS case and maybe the majority was right in part in the particular posture the case was in. But the real point is, what happened to free exercise?
I have to disagree. The question here is not free exercise. They were free to exercise, just not to get structural support from the university if they discriminate. The university is in fact bound by anti-discrimination legislation.
The majority ruled this correctly and the objection of the minority was not on free exercise grounds either.
The free exercise clause should not imply rights to privilege. I.e. just because one has the right to exercise any belief one wants to hold does not mean that one is entitled to support from others in such view.
Justice Stevens makes that quite clear in his response to the dissenters in this opinion.
I think this is both correct and sound.


Autism is just a word used by doctors for the child who avoid any kind of social interaction. People behave differently to a so called "autistic child" or normal child. Some show sympathy, some call them mad, some ask their children to stay away from them. Are autistic child or adult are really abnormal? No, they are not. Their need and reaction to situation are different from the normal ones. Your behaviour can make them feel better. People with autism may focus on one topic, like trains or a television show, games, one subjects like maths, tapping a object, staring at a object, saying a single word again and again.
Even some celebrities and intelligent person are called as autistic. But are they really abnormal or not capable of doing anything. Know how many celebrities suffer from Celebrities.
Here are the some quotes that reflects intensity of autism.
"Autism makes you listen louder. It makes you pay attention to an emotional level as well as an intellectual level.
"The difference between high-functioning and low-functioning is that high functioning means your deficits are ignored, and low- functioning means your assets are ignored.
"Children with autism are colorful – they are often very beautiful and, like the rainbow, they stand out.
"It takes a village to raise a child. It takes a child with autism to raise the consciousness of that village.
If your child is suffering from the autism, don't make him feel like he is useless. Be his or her strength.

PX column: Here's who's at fault for Cincinnati's embarrassing poverty rate
We can't fully celebrate Cincinnati's renaissance as long as we have a 27.7 percent poverty rate, higher than it was before the Great Recession.

The latest poverty numbers are an absolute embarrassment for Cincinnati. The rise in the poverty rate here the past decade was almost the highest among major U.S. cities.
We can't fully celebrate Cincinnati's renaissance as long as we have a 27.7 percent poverty rate, higher than it was before the Great Recession. The reality is if this keeps going, we'll replace Detroit as the national poverty punchline.
There's nothing funny about it, though.
Who's to blame for Cincinnati having the third-highest poverty rate increase among the nation's 81 largest cities?
That's right, I have to look at what I'm doing for the poor before casting stones at the politicians or bureaucrats or anyone in authority. We all do, every single one of us who cares about Cincinnati. Whether you live or work in the city, you must ask yourself:
What am I doing for the least of these brothers and sisters of mine?
Since an editor told me on Tuesday night about the new U.S. Census estimates, I've been thinking about what I've done to fight poverty in Cincinnati. I'm ashamed to admit – hardly anything.
I gave $198 to a homeless shelter last year. Was that enough? Could I have done more? Well, do I need to spend money on a cup of cold brew every morning at Starbucks or the trendy neighborhood coffee shop or stop at UDF every afternoon to grab a soda?
It's not just about giving donations. In almost two years, I haven't volunteered one time. Not once. I haven't served a meal to the homeless. I haven't mentored a kid. It's unacceptable. I have to ask myself: Did my inaction help contribute to the higher poverty rate?
I believe fighting poverty is a heart issue. It's not about Republican or Democrat. It's everyone's responsibility to do something – companies, government, churches, charities, you and me.
OK, now let's cast stones at Cincinnati City Hall, which certainly isn't doing its part. The politicians and bureaucrats over there are inept enough at addressing basic services like picking up trash and fixing potholes. How the heck are they supposed to tackle a complex, multifaceted, generational problem like poverty?
They could start by at least trying, and I'm not talking about creating another damn task force. They could quit fighting over silly stuff like the streetcar, soccer stadium, scooters, bike lanes and a laundry list of other things that really aren't that important to most citizens' lives. Clear the distractions so real work on real issues can happen.
Throwing more taxpayer money at the problem probably isn't the answer. But if City Hall is going to give money to agencies that help poor people, it needs to do a better job of choosing who gets funding. No more money for questionable organizations like the Center for Closing the Health Gap, which reportedly has few achievements to show for the millions in tax dollars it's received from the city for years.
No more political pandering at the expense of helping poor people. And no more half-baked ideas for funding social services. This year, City Council hatched a flimsy plan to pay for social services by increasing the billboard tax. Mayor John Cranley told Council it was legally problematic, and lo and behold, it's now in litigation.
These latest poverty statistics should be a Kyle Plush-like wake-up call for City Hall. Cranley and Council should spring to action on an anti-poverty plan the way they did on fixing the 911 call center after last spring's death of the Seven Hills School student.
One idea for tackling poverty: Get serious about fixing public transportation. Get on the same page with the Hamilton County commissioners and business community to improve funding for the Metro bus system. Until that happens, the SORTA board will remain in neutral.
Our buses don't connect city residents to the thousands of entry-level manufacturing and warehousing jobs in the suburbs. Many companies have a hard time finding and retaining good workers, and transportation is part of the problem. Business leaders need to turn up the heat on the politicians to fix this.
The poverty numbers, Cranley said, "remind us that we have a lot of work ahead of us."
Let's get to it.

On Traveling MinistryPeter Blood2022-08-25T00:47:10+00:00
– Peter Blood
From their earliest beginnings in 17th century, Quakers have valued and supported travel by individual Friends "under a religious concern". In most cases such Friends have traveled among settled (i.e. already established) Friends Meetings either in their immediate vicinity or at a great distance. At times, however, Friends have felt led to travel among non-Friends with a particular leading. A striking example is when Mary Fisher felt led in 1658 to travel to Istanbul to meet with Sultan Mehmed IV of the Ottoman Empire.
All early Quaker leaders, especially those identified informally as the "Valiant Sixty", carried out such travels in the "gospel ministry". Quaker journals [spiritual autobiographies] are filled with accounts of such religious travel.
Shared discernment and support from the faith community. Friends developed very early a process for group testing, usually by one's local congregation, of such leadings. This process is now usually referred to as a "clearness committee" for one-time calls to travel and a "support committee" or "oversight of ministry committee" for the nurture and holding accountable of those led to carry out such work on a more ongoing basis. This process is one important example of what Friends refer to as "eldership" or eldering. The process of shared discernment of God's call and holding an individual accountable for carrying out that call faithfully is the same whether or not it is carried out by persons formally recognized as elders or by others not so designated.
Traveling Minute
It is considered important that Friends undertaking such work obtain a written minute of religious concern often referred to as a "traveling minute" that describes the faith community's official endorsement of the individual's calling to a particular or more ongoing religious work among Friends or in the wider world. In cases of distant travel among Friends, these minutes are also often endorsed by the Friend's yearly meeting (regional association).
It is important to note that a traveling minute or minute of travel under religious concern is not the same as a simple letter of introduction. Many meetings provide a letter or minute of introduction for Friends undertaking travel for other reasons besides gospel ministry as a way of introducing their member or couple or family to Friends they encounter during their trip.
Accompaniment by an Elder
It is considered critical that Friends undertaking this type of work travel with a spiritual companion or "elder". The elder both provides prayerful support to the "minister" (both during any programs the minister is leading and before and after) and also to hold the minister accountable for faithful exercise of her or his call.
(Note: There is a whole separate section on this website devoted to the subject of Eldership more broadly.)
Committee of Oversight
Traditionally ongoing oversight of a meeting's recorded ministers would be provided by the monthly meetings elders. Each monthly meeting's recorded ministers and appointed elders were expected to meet on a monthly basis. This meeting of ministers and elders is the antecedent of current Ministry and Worship Committees, which in many meetings today are appointed for specific terms. The three North American Conservative YMs still record ministers basically for life and appoint elders for a long open-ended period of time.
Beginning towards the end of the 20th century many FGC meetings began a practice of appointing committees of oversight for both those who held central responsibilities in the yearly meeting such as yearly meeting clerks and also for members called to ongoing ministries of various kinds. This has been associated with a broadening of the meaning of ministry. The term ministry was traditionally reserved by Friends for those with a demonstrated gift for vocal ministry both in meetings for worship and also in travel under religious concern.
In many other Christian faith traditions the term ministry is applied to many forms of religious service besides preaching and pastoral care including chaplaincy, religious education, music, and even social witness such as earthcare ministry.
After recording of ministers had largely disappeared from FGC yearly meetings, some Friends sought a form of recording to support ministries such as chaplaincy or prison visitation for which there were often legal or professional requirements for a faith congregation to provide some form of formal recognition as an alternative to ordination. It is important to note that meeting a formal legal recognition similar to ordination is seriously antithetical to the Quaker traditional opposition to a formal priesthood or hireling ministry set in opposition to lay members of the community.
This traditional opposition to the lay-clergy distinction has led to the unwillingness of many meetings to formally recognize some member's call to ministry. Engaging with a Monthly Meeting about Ministry [in the Community section of this website] describes one Friend's request to her meeting for a minute of travel and the meeting's struggle to come to unity in supporting this Friend's request.
Larger meetings have, however, been increasingly willing to consider providing a committee to support some Friend's ministry, while also emphasizing that the meeting values equally all of its members' spiritual gifts, even if the meeting only has the capacity to support a few Friend's with formal minutes and oversight committees.
An oversight committee involves a significant amount of time and energy. Smaller meetings may seek to provide oversight of one or two member's ongoing ministry by the meeting as a whole. Another way to provide this kind of support and accountability is
Biblical Underpinnings
Early Friends saw themselves as continuing a pattern of religious work described in the Bible, especially the New Testament. The importance of traveling with an elder ties in with the fact that Jesus sent out his followers in pairs. See Mark 9-13. The resurrected Jesus gave similar briefer instructions in Matthew 28-18-20. Many examples can also be found in the Book of Acts and Paul's letters. You can read many reports of the process of discerning in prayer with others what particular travel or religious task Paul and others were called to carry out.

Well, this week sure leaves me happy, since three of the six or so books that I'm actively collecting right now are making their appearance (anyone familiar with this column doesn't need to guess that means that among our new arrivals is the new Fairy Tail, Blue Exorcist, and Bakuman). For the rest of you, there's still Vampire Knight, the shoujo-horror book of the hour, as well as another one of those 3-in-1 collections for the mega-beast of a series, Bleach. Beyond all that, though, there are a few sleeper hits that maybe you guys should tune in on, just in case you're out trolling for something new to read.


DeKALB – On a night when the shots weren't falling, Northern Illinois opened the season Thursday with a gritty come-from-behind win against the Yale Bulldogs, 89-80.
The Huskies (1-0) twice looked up at an 11-point deficit in the game. Midway into the third quarter, the Huskies trailed for the second time by 11, but NIU clawed its way back with scrappy play and timely shooting.
Senior forward Courtney Woods hit two straight 3s early in the quarter to keep the Huskies close, while the team battled for every rebound.
Mikayla Voigt capped the comeback by draining a 3 at the end of third quarter to put the Huskies ahead, 64-63.
The Huskies fought off the Bulldogs (1-1) early in the fourth quarter with Woods answering every basket Yale hit. Woods nailed a 3-pointer the possession after Yale retook the lead to put the Huskies back up, 74-73.
After the Huskies scratched out a three-point lead with less than two minutes remaining, Errin Hodges snatched an offensive rebound out of a crowd, leading to two Woods free throws.
Woods hit both free throws and put the game out of reach.
Woods had a tough shooting night, going 9 for 24 from the field, but hit the big shots when it counted, including going a perfect 14 for 14 from the free-throw line. She finished with a game-high 38 points.
Roxy Barahman led the Bulldogs with 29 points on 10-of-27 shooting.
The Huskies as a team only shot 33 percent from the field, but hit 29 of 30 free throws.
The Huskies shifted from man-to-man defense to a 2-3 zone in the second half and confounded the Yale offense, which was dominating in the post.
The Huskies were undersized compared to the Bulldogs. Yale boasted 6-foot-5 freshman forward Camilla Emsbo, who finished with 21 points and 13 rebounds.
Despite the Yale size advantage, the Huskies held their own with only a 48-42 rebound deficit.
The Huskies lagged behind the Bulldogs in the second quarter as Emsbo showed some range. She hit three straight buckets, including two from 17 feet.
Woods countered for the Huskies with two straight baskets, but the Huskies found themselves in an 11-point deficit midway through the second quarter.
It looked like the Huskies would have a big halftime deficit, but Gabby Nikitinaite hit a trey and Myia Starks intercepted a pass on the next possession and put in a breakaway to cut the lead to three points. Megan Gorman ended the half for the Bulldogs with a three of her own to push the halftime lead to 47-41, Yale.
NIU guard Mikayla Voigt (21) shoots a floater against the Yale Bulldogs in DeKalb Nov. 8.

Q: jQuery datePicker below UI dialog? See Example
After clicking the show container link the datepicker component - 2nd input - is shown below the UI dialog. What should I do to show it above the UI dialog?

A: You could set the z-index of .ui-datepicker to 1003.
.ui-datepicker
{
  z-index: 1003;
}

Right now, .ui-widget-overlay has a z-index of 1001 and the .ui-dialog has a z-index of 1002. The datepicker has no z-index, and defaults to being below the z-index of these others. Up it to a higher z-index and it should appear above the dialog.

A: I had a similar problem but the datepicker dialog had a style="z-index:1" which was wreaking me.
So I had to add the !important keyword.
.ui-datepicker {
  z-index: 1003 !important;
}

A: You need to set the z-index on the datepicker, e.g.:
.ui-datepicker
{
    z-index:20000;
}

Should work for you.

A: If the its an old browser (IE6) you may need the 'BGIFrame' plugin and set the dialog option to use it, if the z-index didn't work?

A: I've fixed by adding this on JS
  //allow interaction of select2, date and time picker on jQuery UI dialog
    $.ui.dialog.prototype._allowInteraction = function(e) {
    return !!$(e.target).closest('.ui-dialog, .ui-datepicker, .select2-drop').length;
  };

Los Angeles Times: Thousands have left California's American Independent Party in the last month
A new analysis finds nearly 32,000 voters in California's American Independent Party changed their official registration and left the party in the two weeks after a Los Angeles Times investigation identified widespread confusion among the party's members.
The change comes after a series of stories last month about voters who had intended to be politically independent, what's known in California as having "no party preference." A poll conducted for The Times found 73% of American Independent Party members did not know they had registered with an actual political party.
Paul Mitchell, a political data specialist whose firm sells exclusive analyses of voter data to California political campaigns, worked with The Times on the stories. He conducted the new analysis for The Times on a pro-bono basis.
Using voter data from each of California's 58 counties, Mitchell found that 31,772 AIP voters left the party in the two weeks prior to May 1. The first story was published in The Times on April 17.
The party gained 10,744 new members during the same two-week period — thus resulting in a net registration loss of 21,028 voters.
The exodus equates to about 6.7% of the AIP's total registration as of mid-April, which was 473,481 voters.
By comparison, the ranks of Democratic and Republican voters in that same time frame each shrank by a fraction — less than three-tenths of 1%.
Mitchell, who has led an informal but vocal campaign for several years warning voters to not confuse being "independent" with joining the American Independent Party, said it's unusual to see such a large number of voters revising their official status.
"A voter changing registration is extremely rare," he said. "Seeing this, in a very short period of time, it's a really big and significant number."
Elections officials in counties across California have recounted several years of voters being confused by the party's use of the word "independent" in its name — a name that dates back to the founding of the AIP during the 1968 presidential campaign of former Alabama Gov. George Wallace.

Every year, thousands of people are injured in auto accidents in North Carolina. Many of these crashes occur on the busy roads and highways around Charlotte, such as I-77, I-85, I-277, and I-485. If you were hurt in a car accident in Charlotte, you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost earnings, and other expenses. The Charlotte car accident injury lawyers of Dewey, Ramsay & Hunt, P.A. can help you file a claim or lawsuit to pursue the compensation that you deserve.
At Dewey, Ramsay & Hunt, P.A., our legal team is committed to maximizing your recovery. Armed with more than half a century of combined experience fighting for crash victims and their family members, our skilled auto accident lawyers are ready to provide compassionate guidance and aggressive representation if you or a loved one was hurt in a crash. We can handle all of the insurance paperwork and negotiation on your behalf, while protecting your rights and working to hold the at-fault driver accountable. For a free legal consultation, contact our Charlotte accident lawyers online, or call Dewey, Ramsay & Hunt, P.A. at (704) 377-3737.
Unfortunately, there is a high likelihood of being injured if you are involved in a car crash. North Carolina car accident statistics show that in 2016 alone, nearly one-third of all crashes resulted in injuries, with approximately 82,600 out of 267,000 crashes injuring drivers, passengers, or others.
Do You Have a Car Accident Claim?
Human error is the cause of most car accidents. For example, a driver might make errors when following road signs or operating the vehicle. In other cases, a manufacturer's error can create a defect that causes a vehicle to become unsafe. In other cases, negligent road maintenance can cause hazards to develop in the roadway. Fatigue, intoxication, distraction, and failure to obey traffic laws are all common factors in avoidable crashes.
Each state follows either a "fault" system or "no-fault" system for car accidents. North Carolina is a fault state, sometimes called an "at-fault" state. This has important consequences for auto accident victims.
Under North Carolina's fault liability system, there are a few ways an accident victim can pursue compensation for medical bills and other losses. If you were hurt in an accident, you might wish to file a car accident claim with your own insurance company, or to file a lawsuit against the driver who caused the crash which injured you, depending on the circumstances. The at-fault driver is typically responsible for the injury victim's losses, but fault must be determined by a careful examination of the evidence surrounding the accident.
North Carolina follows a legal doctrine known as "contributory negligence," which can create obstacles for accident survivors. Under this doctrine, a crash victim cannot recover compensation if he or she contributed to causing the accident. For example, a driver who is deemed 10% at fault will be prevented from recovery, despite playing a minimal role in the crash. Because of North Carolina's strict contributory negligence laws, which insurance companies often use to deny liability and avoid paying claims, it is absolutely crucial for North Carolinians to have aggressive legal representation if a crash occurs.
An attorney can also provide guidance if other insurance issues arise, such as a scenario where the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured. In this type of situation, compensation may be available through the injury victim's own Uninsured Motorist (UM)/Underinsured Motorist (UIM) policy.
Determining whether you are receiving a fair settlement can be difficult. The Charlotte accident law firm of Dewey, Ramsay & Hunt, P.A. will help you determine what you are entitled to before agreeing to any settlement or signing any documents. We can also represent you in dealing with your insurance company and any additional parties that might be involved. Contact us online today, or call our law offices at (704) 377-3737 to schedule your free consultation.

Love Letter Day X

I wish I weren't so tired, and I wish I weren't so angry.
I'm in an awful mood. Just awful. I tell myself I need to point my expectations in new directions but I probably just need to sleep every time I'm tired, instead of fighting the fatigue. Lately I feel like Alice in Wonderland, which people think is about hallucinogenics but it's actually a story about Alice being gaslit wherever she goes.
"I'm gigantic!" No you're not. Look you're tiny. "I'm scared of the flowers!" What the fuck for? Flowers are awesome. "But they're really making me feel bad." We're just playing with you. We love you.
I was wrong for being easy to make fun of and then wrong for being impossible to make fun of and now I'm a cultural ambassador which means I get one clean shot at telling the world who to make fun of next.
I am grateful for everybody who holds me. Let's end there. You meet people with an iota of emotional intelligence and realize how deeply powerful it is to be human. I thank you iotas.
I love you all. I love you all. I love you all.

I wasn't a real fan of these live action superhero TV shows. It's like they can't quite capture the soul of the people or the powers. So it ends up kind of boring almost like Smallville, more of a soap opera, than a superhero epic.
When I first watched this on the CW I was skeptical but then saw that one of my favorite comic writers, Geoff Johns, helped make it. So I started to take it serious I watched it and it showed the soul of the people AND the powers. Also that it takes the comic mythos to the show as well.
The guy playing the Flash does a good job both as Barry Allen and the Flash. What some people also don't know about the villains of the Flash. It's that they're pretty human, almost as human as anyone on the hero's side. They just do a life of crime because that's all they know sometimes.
Also the people that do Reverse Flash, Captain Cold, Heatwave, Pied Piper, and maybe even the rest of the Rouge's Gallery might be as good as the comics. I also won't tell who the Reverse Flash is because it'll spoil the surprise to it all. Anyway this is pretty good and not too serious and dark as Arrow is considered to be.
