TV One's "Unsung" Starts New Season January 23rd
Posted in Black Men, Black Men In America, Feature Interviews, Music, Music and Video Releases with tags Black Music, Celebrity Crime Files, Music Documentary, TV One, Unsung on December 29, 2012 by Gary Johnson
TV One's signature music biography series sheds much-deserved light on some of the most influential, talented and, somehow, forgotten R&B, soul, hip hop, funk and gospel artists of the last 30 years.
Before Barry White and Teddy Pendergrass, there was Isaac Hayes, whose music set the scene for romantic seduction on stage and off. But Isaac was more than a legendary ladies man. He was a creative genius, who rose from dire poverty to become one of the driving forces in popular music, co-writing classic hits like 'Hold On I'm Comin' and 'Soul Man', while reinventing popular ballads like 'Walk On By' with stunning emotional force.
By the early 70s he'd become known as 'Black Moses' a proud and positive-minded role model whose acts of public and private generosity were legend. But behind the gold chains and dark glasses was a sensitive and insecure figure whose compulsion to provide for others took its toll in unstable relationships, lost fortunes, and a tragically foreshortened career.
Now, those closest to Isaac, including family members, life-long friends and musical associates, tell the "Unsung" story of an American icon.
Check out Isaac Hayes, Eddie Kendricks, Lou Rawls, EPMD, Mint Condition, Johnny Gill and more on the new season of "Unsung" beginning January 23, 2013 at 10:00 pm ET. Click here to watch full episodes of past broadcasts.
If you love "Unsung," another best-kept secret on TV One is "Celebrity Crime Files." This series delves into some of the most controversial crimes of our generation by exploring the rise and fall of the entertainment, sports and literary world's most prominent and promising figures including Marvin Gaye, Jam Master Jay and Peter Tosh.
New Film Shows That "Soul Food" and Black Folks Aren't Always a Healthy Match
Posted in African Americans, Black America, Black Interests, Black Links, Black Men, Gary A. Johnson, Health & Fitness, Women's Interests with tags Byron Hurt, Fried Food, Gary A. Johnson, Healthy Eating, PBS, Soul Food, Southern Style Cooking, Unhealthy Food on December 28, 2012 by Gary Johnson
Fact: Soul food and southern style cooking is high in saturated fat.
Fact: Fat tastes good.
Fact: Black people are twice as likely to die of stroke before age 75 than other population groups.
"Soul Food Junkies," is a new film by Byron Hurt which will air January 14, 2013 on PBS. In the documentary Hurt explores the addiction that black people have with "soul food."
Hurt also explores the health advantages and disadvantages of "soul food" and peers inside the unhealthy side of the food industry and the growing food justice movement.
Hurt interviewed a wide variety of people including chefs and health experts and concluded that black folks' addiction to soul food is killing them.
I'm not sure that we needed a documentary to confirm that, but if a film helps to spread the word that people need to adopt healthier eating habits, then let's get everyone we know to watch this film.
Growing up I was raised on fried and fatty foods. My father would cook grits, bacon, pork sausage and fried eggs for breakfast and pour the grease from the pan on top of the grits for extra flavor. That leftover grease would then be poured in a jar on the stove to be used for the next meal.
There was no thing as "turkey sausage" in my house. I didn't learn about "turkey sausage" until I was in my late twenties. Turkey sausage is an insult to pigs everywhere. There is no substitute for the taste of bacon. If I was running the pork industry; I would move to legally prevent the turkey industry from using the term "bacon." At best, they should call it "turkey breakfast meat." I know that I have offended turkey lovers with those comments about turkey bacon. What can I say? I told you that I still struggle.
As I learned more about healthy cooking, I had to break some of my "cultural conditioning" when it came to food. It was not an easy transition to rid myself of those unhealthy cooking habits.
Today, I still struggle. I do the majority of the cooking and grocery shopping in my household. I have an emotional connection with my food. I struggle every day to eat healthy. I win the battle most days and offset my weak days with regular exercise. I don't recycle cooking oil, I buy fresh vegetables, I bake much more than I fry and I get regular exercise. Despite this effort, I still struggle with my weight and battle my predisposed genetics.
Thank goodness my children are healthy and health conscious. "Soul food" can be healthy. We have to make better choices in our cooking and eating habits.

Stop The Madness: We Don't Need This Reality Show

We debated whether or not we should even publish this post about the Oxygen TV network reality show "All My Babies Mamas." We finally decided that we had to get the word out and let people decide for themselves. As the Publisher of this online enterprise, I see no redeeming value in this show. I see it being full of ignorance and exploitation.
For those who haven't heard, the Oxygen television network is working on a new one-hour special, "All My Babies' Mamas." The series, created by Liz Gateley and Tony DiSanto, will show the complicated lives (headaches and drama) of rapper Atlanta rapper Carlos "Shawty Lo" Walker, the ten mothers of his children and their 11 kids. Did I mention that Shawty Lo has a new girlfriend who is the same age as his oldest daughter?
Talk about a family affair.
"Oxygen will give fans an intimate look at unconventional families with larger than life personalities and real emotional stakes," says Cori Abraham, Senior Vice President of Development, Oxygen Media. "'All My Babies' Mamas' will be filled with outrageous and authentic over-the-top moments that our young, diverse female audience can tweet and gossip about."
That description alone makes me think that this show is going to be a "WTF circus." It's hard to believe that anything good can come from this. "When you know better, you do better." Is that old saying still true?
Oxygen is not releasing a lot of information about the show so it's hard to be objective in our criticism of the show. However, based on what we saw in the trailer we don't think we're off base describing the show as dysfunctional and ignorant. By the way, that official trailer is hard to find. Hmmmmm. A search of the Oxygen network site reflects that all references to the show have been removed. The show does not come up on the search page on their web site.
If you find a link to the trailer and watch it we would love to know about your reaction.
My concern is for the children. Honestly, I really am concerned for the actual welfare and emotional stability of the children being raised in this environment by parents who appear "not to know what they don't know." If you really stretch your thinking, and I mean stretch your thinking, the only potential good thing from a show like this is that Shawty Lo may earn enough money to pay his child support and provide any counseling these kids may need to grow up as an emotionally stable and productive citizen.
My good friend social activist and best-selling author Sabrina Lamb has organized a petition to boycott this show and make sure it never hits the airwaves. You can review and sign the petition by clicking here.
Will you watch the show? Will you sign the petition? Do you have any problems with a show like this?

By Nicholas M. Young, Ph D.
When you were elected in 2008, I immediately told a female friend that you would go down as the greatest President in the history of the United States. I based my prediction primarily on what I saw of you when we played basketball together during my graduate school, and your faculty days at The University of Chicago (The U of C), I came to know you as a bright, tough, and kind guy that was a tough defender on the basketball court. Outside the court, I saw you as concerned member of the Hyde Park and U of C communities that was a smooth and effective politician. Although watching you assume the highest office in the land is still a bit surreal for me, watching you win the 2008 election showed others what we in the Hyde Park and U of C communities already knew about you: You are the type of guy that had the ability and courage to rise up to, and succeed at, any challenge.
To be sure, while you continue to use these skills to lead the United States out of a horrible recession and toward greater social and economic prosperity, the events of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre has provided you with a new challenge that the social and political skills that you sharpened during your Chicago days may not have prepared you for: Taking on the powerful U.S. gun lobby.
As I am sure you, and other Americans know, the gun lobby in this country bases it history, and basic existence on the presence of the Second Amendment–a Constitutional reality and relic that guarantees the right of every American to own a gun to protect her or himself and household.
However, I, for one, do not believe that the Second Amendment was conceived to allow a deranged, private, U.S. citizen to own a gun that has the ability to wipe out many innocent people. From what I know about this part of the Constitution, the founders of this great document did not anticipate an episode like the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre occurring, and. if they did, I suspect that they would have included a checks and balance provision in the Constitution to address this possibility. Two possible ways to prevent a Sandy Hook Elementary School—like massacre from ever occurring again is to ban the sale of assault weapons, and limit the sale of ammunition that gun purchasers need to power these weapons. For instance, those buying these weapons can be limited to a small number of bullets. They can even be asked to show what, who, when, and why they choose to use their guns. While all Americans have the right to own a gun, their right to own the ammunition used to power these weapons of mass destruction is not guaranteed by the Constitution
So, Mr. President, if I was you, I would contact the leader of the American Gun Lobby and tell him the following: "Your days of supporting the sale of assault weapons to our citizens is coming to an end. The Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre has shown the country the limits and danger of the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution. The Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre has also shown the limits and danger of organizations like yours in causing harm to the American public."
Sir, it is time for you to cash in the political chips that we gave you to lead us. It is time for us to not expect another massacre like the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy to ever again occur on our soil. I hope that you recognize that the time has come for you to be the leader that we envisioned when we elected you in 2008, and reelected you in 2012. I hope that you recognize that the time has come for you to find a way to impose a permanent ban on assault weapons.

CHARLIE WILSON CELEBRATES HIS BIRTHDAY WITH THE RELEASE OF HIS NEW CD "LOVE, CHARLIE" ON JANUARY 29th
Posted in African Americans, Black America, Black Interests, Black Men, Music with tags Black Music, Charlie Wilson, Gap Band, R&B Music, Uncle Charlie on December 24, 2012 by Gary Johnson
Grammy-nominated RCA Records recording artist and R&B icon CHARLIE WILSON is preparing to celebrate his birthday with the release of his new, highly-anticipated album, Love, Charlie, on January 29, 2013. The album will be available for pre-order at iTunes, Amazon.com and other leading retailers on December 11th. The first single, "My Love Is All I Have," is already a top ten hit on the Billboard Urban Adult Contemporary Chart. The accompanying video for the ballad can be viewed on VEVO.com.
The selection of songs on Love, Charlie cover the various aspects of love that people experience – from the joy of discovering it on "I Think I'm In Love," to one's heart speaking to another's on the lead single, "My Love is All I Have." For Wilson, the love of self and faith in God is represented on "If I Believe," his most poignant song on the album.
"The first track on 'Love, Charlie' sets the tone for this project," stated Wilson. "As everyone knows I have not only survived some of life's challenges, I have been triumphant and 'If I Believe' is my testimony which I hope will inspire others."
Wilson, whose career began with his brothers as the incomparable and funky GAP Band, has been enjoying an extraordinary solo career which includes two Grammy nominations for each of his last two albums, Uncle Charlie and Just Charlie. The latter release spawned the chart-topping hit "You Are" which claimed the #1 spot Billboard's Urban Adult Contemporary chart for 13 consecutive weeks!
In addition to his success as a solo artist, Wilson has collaborated with numerous chart-topping artists and producers including Snoop Dogg, R. Kelly, Kanye West, Jamie Foxx, Fantasia, T. Pain, Justin Timberlake and his recent performance on the 2012 Soul Train Awards with 2 Chainz.
With a repertoire of countless hit songs, Wilson continues to perform to sold-out audiences around the country including his critically acclaimed and heralded performance at the 2012 Essence Music Festival in New Orleans. The following quote in the New Orleans Times Picayune says it all: "…a performance that left the Dome crying 'Uncle.' There's really no other way to put it – Charlie Wilson is a force of nature."

Cornel West: 'Coward' Obama Doesn't Care When 'Black Folk' Get Shot, Only When 'Vanilla' Children Do

Oh my. Here we go again. In wrestling parlance, it looks as if we have a "cage match," between the team of "Terrible Tavis Smiley" and his partner "The Professor" Cornel West against President Barack Obama and his policies.
In this latest war of words, Professor West made his comments on Saturday, December 22, 2012, on the "Smiley and West" radio show. These two guys have no quit in them. I guess you can say they have the courage of their convictions when it comes to putting issues they believe of interest on the public table for discussion.
Following the shooting death of 26 children and adults in Newtown, Connecticut, Saturday, West referred to President Obama and other (unnamed) politicians as "cowards" who only cares about "vanilla" children. Smiley and West have been frequent critics of President Obama and they don't seem to care what people say or think about them.
West, an open and frequent critic of Obama, referring to the soaring homicide rate in Chicago, said the president did not care when "black folk" get shot in his own state.

Juan de Marcos Gonzalez and the Afro Cuban All Stars 2013 U.S. Tour
Posted in Black America, Black Interests, Black Links, Black Men, Latino Interests, Music with tags Afro-Cuban All Stars, Juan De Marcos, Juan de Marcos González on December 23, 2012 by Gary Johnson
Juan De Marcos Gonzalez is a Cuban bandleader, the architect of the legendary Afro-Cuban All Stars, (the foundation for The Buena Vista Social Club) and the founder of another successful Cuban band, Sierra Maestra. To Juan de Marcos, music is religious medicine. Finding spiritual solace playing the sacred rhythms of his ancestors; Juan De Marcos' compositions often evoke healing memories in his audiences.
As a child in a musical household Juan de Marcos was trained at the feet of the Maestros. From his father, Marcos Gonzalez; a singer for Arsenio Rodriguez's Orchestra; to his Tio (Uncle), famed pianist of the Buena Vista Social Club; Ruben Gonzalez, Juan's mission is the preservation of his rich musical inheritance. He arranged, conducted, and produced The Buena Vista Social Club recordings to fulfill a dream; creating musical tributes that cured like a fountain of youth for those Cuban musicians whose era was thought long gone. Gonzalez became a bridge builder connecting the past and the future, the elders with the youth.
Juan De Marcos' melodic story authenticates the blessing of his African ancestors. Gonzalez has a special formula for each and every performance. There is always a tremendous "fiesta" happening on stage, with an "All Star" cast of Cuba's finest musicians to include his daughters and wife; culminating in an unforgettable show reminiscent of a night in La Habana of today, tomorrow and yester year.

Student accommodation in Manchester can be somewhat tricky to negotiate. As one of the biggest student communities in the UK, the demand for accommodation is understandably high throughout the academic year and finding the right property for you can be a bit of a minefield.
Although we tend to stick informative student advice guides and education news here at the Almero blog, today we have decided to buck the usual trend and bring you a bit of a guide to finding the right student accommodation in what is one of the UK's best academic destinations.
The thing about student accommodation is that there isn't really a one size fits all approach which suits everyone. Some like to go for the budget approach but others, those who tend to enjoy the finer things in life, like to ensure they have all of their home comforts when away from university. The latter can sometimes help students to ensure they have somewhere they can study and socialise in comfort, should the SU or a night out clubbing not be on the agenda.
Indeed, choosing luxury student accommodation that comes with premium extras such as wi-fi, laundry, a flat screen TV and great transport links can make things a lot easier when your studies start to get intense. These kinds of added extra are the type we pride ourselves here at Almero Student Mansions and thousands of our previous residents have found that they enhance the university experience significantly.
Firstly, we recommend you take a good look at the properties we have available here at Almero Student Mansions, for the aforementioned reasons. The best idea is to plan well ahead of when you are looking to begin your studies as you will find the best accommodation will be taken as you approach typically busy times of the year such as the autumn. By getting ahead of the pack and securing your property early, not only will you be giving yourself a great peace of mind, but you can get busy preparing for your actual course and checking out your new surroundings.
Depending on your course, you may have a different start time to other students too. So don't presume your studies will begin after Fresher's Week, as there is a chance it could be well before and you will of course need accommodation. All Manchester Universities have great websites where you can check course outlines and start dates at any time of the year, and you can always check the UCAS site to be sure.
Here at Almero Student Mansions, we have recently branched out into the Manchester area with our brand new, stunning student residences but we already have accommodation in some of the best student locales in the city. From our Derby Road houses to our Cawdor Road flats and smaller properties, we have been sure to create our luxury properties in the areas of the city that matter. This means you can relax when it comes to living in a property that has all the luxury you need as well as being close to infrastructure such as transport links and campus. Manchester is an ever growing city which has undergone a great deal of regeneration over recent years and with Almero you really are in the thick of the action.
If Manchester sounds like the student community for you, then why not get in touch with our friendly team? There is still plenty of time until the new academic year or perhaps you are looking to move mid-semester. Either way, our team of student accommodation specialists will be able to give you the best advice on your options.
Moving house when away at university can be a scary process and as mentioned, getting this right can have a profound impact on your studies and happiness. That is why we have created our mansions with just that in mind and are delighted to be able to offer some stellar properties in the heart of the Manchester metropolis. Just take a look around some of our other great student advice articles or the Manchester properties we have here at our site for more information.

After Britain and France, will Vietnam be the next country to enact same-sex marriage?
July 17, 2013 Kevin Lees	Leave a comment
Now that the House of Lords has approved changes to the same-sex bill in Parliament in the United Kingdom, same-sex marriage is set to become a reality in England and Wales (a separate Scottish bill is set to follow) under Conservative prime minister David Cameron.
That follows the final enactment of same-sex marriage in France earlier this summer — though the center-right and far right have vocally opposed it, the Assemblée nationale passed the measure with ease in June, fulfilling one of president François Hollande's key campaign promises.
Great Britain (once Scotland joins) will become the 14th nation-state to have enacted legal same-sex marriage, joining France and eight other European countries,* as well as Argentina, Brazil, Canada and South Africa. That doesn't include México City or the 13 states (and the District of Columbia)** in the United States that have enacted marriage equality, which comes with the full set of rights and privileges of federal law following the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling in United States v. Windsor that rules the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional. Last month, Germany's constitutional court delivered same-sex partnerships a key victory by ruling that they are entitled to the same tax rights as other married couples.
So what's the next horizon in what's become a global fight for LGBT rights and marriage equality?
Vietnam.
Probably not what you were thinking, right? After all, Asia has not typically been the most hospitable battleground for LGBT rights.
Moreover, Vietnam is a socialist republic and a one-party state ruled by a party, the Đảng Cộng sản Việt Nam (Vietnamese Communist Party), that's been enshrined through Vietnam's constitution as the sole organ of political affairs since 1975, when North Vietnam formally overran South Vietnam, thereby uniting the entire country under communist rule. The Vietnamese government is repressive on just about every other vector — press freedom, internet freedom, and of course, the kind of political freedom that would allow a challenge to the governing elite. Though the country has been transformed economically as its one-time Marxist roots have been eroded into a more state capitalist approach, and its top destination for exports is now the United States (relations between the two countries have now been normalized for nearly two decades), the zeal for liberalization hasn't met with the same enthusiasm in other quarters.
Vietnam is most well-known internationally for its economic growth — it's a 'Next Eleven' country and, while its GDP growth has slowed in recent years, it's still poised to become a breakout economic power in southeast Asia. It's also a party to the ambitious Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations that could ultimately establish a free-trade zone among the United States and other South American and Asian countries.
It's less well-known for its positions on social justice, but it would be a huge coup for the global marriage equality movement — with over 90 million people, it's the 13th most populous country in the world, and it would be the first Asian jurisdiction to recognize same-sex marriage.

Road test proves adaptive cruise control can add to traffic jam problem
by Heidi Hall, Vanderbilt University
Credit: CC0 Public Domain
A new, open-road test of adaptive cruise control demonstrated that the feature, designed to make driving easier by continuously adjusting a vehicle's speed in response to the car ahead, doesn't yet solve the problem of phantom traffic jams.
Because human drivers are responsible for the creation of this type of jam—which occurs without an obvious cause—the widespread use of these types of driver-assist technologies holds promise to eliminate these jams, if designed appropriately.
"Our experiments show that today's driver-assist systems are not yet able to overcome the worst driving behaviors of humans that lead to extremely frustrating traffic jams," said Dan Work, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering at Vanderbilt University, who helped lead the research.
The details of the multi-university team's latest experiments on ACC vehicles are available on the arXiv preprint server in a paper titled "Are commercially implemented adaptive cruise control systems string stable?"
Their work builds on earlier research that showed adding even a small fraction of specially designed autonomous vehicles could eliminate phantom jams by keeping an optimal separation between cars and avoiding sudden stops.
As vehicles with driver-assist systems such as adaptive cruise control become more prevalent, it is critical to understand how they influence traffic, said Work. While they potentially react faster and more gracefully to vehicles ahead than humans can, their sensors are not able to see beyond the vehicle immediately in front. That limits their ability to outperform human drivers, who anticipate changes by looking multiple vehicles ahead.
Work and his collaborators tested seven different cars from two manufacturers on a remote, rural roadway in Arizona. They simulated various driving conditions with a pace car changing its speed, followed by a vehicle using adaptive cruise control. The team measured how quickly and aggressively the ACC system responded to the pace car speed changes.
They drove the cars at varying speeds over more than 1,000 miles of testing, with the results always the same.
"In each test, the following vehicle slowed down more than the leader, which is a signature of the creation of phantom traffic jams," said Benjamin Seibold, associate professor of mathematics at Temple University and another lead researcher.
In one experiment, the team filled a lane of traffic with seven identical vehicles—all running the same ACC system—with a pace vehicle in front. Once all vehicles achieved a cruising speed of 50 miles per hour, the pace vehicle quickly reduced its speed by 6 miles per hour. In a domino effect, each of the following vehicles slowed down more and more dramatically so that, by the seventh car, its speed dropped below the minimum required for the ACC system to operate.
Team members said they hope manufacturers ultimately will design vehicle automation systems that make traffic a concern in addition to safety, comfort and fuel efficiency. Sixteen of the 20 best-selling vehicles in America already offer ACC, which demonstrates their potential for impacting traffic decades before vehicles become fully autonomous.
They said the next step is to design and demonstrate effective driver-assist features in real freeway traffic, paving the way for the next generation of vehicle automation technologies.

Ether, Litecoin and More: Overstock Now Accepts Cryptocurrencies as Payment
Aug 8, 2017 at 13:00 UTC Updated Aug 8, 2017 at 13:14 UTC
Pete Rizzo
Online retail giant Overstock has partnered with blockchain startup ShapeShift to accept more than 60 cryptocurrencies as payment at its online stores.
With the announcement, Overstock.com shoppers can now use ether, litecoin, dash and bitcoin cash at checkout, a move that follows Overstock's early embrace of bitcoin as a payment method. Overstock first began accepting bitcoin for payment in 2014, and it has remained active in developing the technology, even launching a dedicated subsidiary to focus on applications.
In statements, Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne sought to portray the decision as one that gives its customers greater freedoms outside of the traditional financial system.
Bryne said:
"Overstock is pro-freedom, including the freedom of individuals to communicate information about value and scarcity without relying on a medium created through the fiat of unaccountable government mandarins."
The move further comes at a time of broader diversification in the cryptocurrency market, which has seen bitcoin's share of the total asset class slip below 50%.
As such, Overstock framed the move as one that keeps it in line with new developments in the blockchain market. But whether the company believes this trend will continue remains unclear.
Notably, Overstock said it intends to convert the cryptocurrency it receives to bitcoin, as well as issue refunds using the protocol.

Reports of recent severe weather often include specialist comment, particularly so in newspapers. Some reporters already request TORRO to provide comment, although in most instances reporters contact the nearest weather centre or their forecast provider. However, most forecasters will have only a little (or even no) knowledge in the areas in which TORRO specialises, so the resulting printed comment is often misleading or even, on occasion, completely erroneous. TORRO Directors and Executives are able to provide accurate and comprehensive information, thus helping to properly inform the reader.
TORRO Directors and Executives are also occasionally involved with special features, whereby an editor or producer decides to devote an article or programme to some aspect of severe weather. Sometimes special features are prompted by severe weather that occurred in their readers' or listeners' catchment area a few weeks before (and by which time reasonably comprehensive information is likely to have been collected on the event(s) by TORRO).
To contact TORRO staff members please use our Contact Form.
Please credit TORRO when using the below information for your reports. Thankyou.
Mini tornado is not a recognised expression and is not used by any research or scientific body. Tornado is a name given to describe a weather phenomenon. The correct terminology is 'Tornado' regardless of size, strength, location or attributes.
A tornado is a violently rotating column of air pendulant from a cumuliform cloud. Formed by an updraught injesting boundary layer with vorticity and stretching it.
Tornadoes revolve both anticlockwise and clockwise, in both the northern and southern hemisphere. This is because they are too small to be affected by the Coriolis force (the means by which the Earth's rotation deflects winds around high and low pressure areas). However anticlockwise tornadoes are more prevalent in the northern hemisphere but this is due to storm mechanisms and not the Earths rotation.
The United States gets around 800 reported tornadoes in an average year. This figure is based over a 30 year period.
On 3 & 4 April 1974, 144 tornadoes touched down in 13 American states. It was the largest outbreak in US history, leaving 330 dead and 5,000 injured.
Americas's greatest death toll from a single tornado was the "tri-state" tornado of 18 March 1925, which travelled 219 miles through Missouri, Illinois and Indiana, leaving 695 dead and 2,027 injured.
Never try to outrun a tornado even in a car; Nor should you try to punch through the eye of a storm. If the tornado is close get out of the vehicle and shelter in a solid building. Tornadoes can change direction suddenly and can outrun vehicles. If you are caught out in the open seek the lowest point on the ground such as a gully or ditch and lie face down as flat as you can. Close your eyes tightly and cover your ears with your hands.
Based on the 30 year average, 33 tornadoes occur each year in the UK. Though the figure will often vary somewhat when considering each individual year.
One of Britain's two most severe tornadoes destroyed the church of St. Mary le Bow and 600 homes in central London on 23 October 1091. Four of the church's 26-foot long rafters were reportedly driven so hard into the ground that only four feet of them was visible.
Also on 12th September 1810, a T8 tornado on the Tornado Intensity Scale travelled from Old Portsmouth to Southsea Common. An eyewitness spoke of the lead roof of a bank being "rolled up like a piece of canvas and blown away".
The Tay Bridge rail disaster in Scotland, on 28 December 1879� was caused by waterspouts. Eyewitnesses saw two or three close to the bridge, immediately before seeing the glowing embers from the engine fall into the River Tay, which are believed to have cut the bridge after the pre-existing high winds and poor construction weakened it.

In the Heat of the Night Blu-ray Review: Murder (and Race) in a Small Town
February 11, 2014/Gordon S. Miller/1 Comment
Based on John Ball's 1965 novel of the same name, Academy Award Best Picture-winner In the Heat of the Night (1967) takes a police procedural and ratchets up the tension and intrigue by having an African American police officer from Philadelphia working to solve a murder in a small Mississippi town where the locals treat his kind poorly. I didn't catch the exact year it's set, but if the Civil Rights Act of 1964 has been passed, not many in Sparta, MI recognize it.
After Ray Charles delivers a marvelous performance singing the theme song, Sergeant Sam Wood (Warren Oates) finds Mr. Colbert, a developer from Chicago who is planning to build a major factory in town, dead in the street at 3 am. Looking for suspects, Wood swings by the train station and finds a black man, Virgil Tibbs (Sidney Poitier), which he assumes is up to no good, because he's black.
Back at the station, Police Chief Bill Gillespie learns Tibbs is a talented homicide detective from Philadelphia who was passing through town. Mrs. Colbert (Lee Grant) sees Tibbs prove the innocence of a man wrongly accused of the murder of her husband. Not trusting Gillespie and his men, she tells the mayor (William Schallert) if Tibbs doesn't work the case, she will pull the factory. In order to save his job, Gillespie has to get Tibbs to stay. The mayor tells Gillespie not to worry because either the culprit will be caught or the blame will fall on Tibbs. Tibbs is aware he is being set up, but wants to find killer.
Working the case is difficult because the townsfolk respond with great disrespect to Tibbs, seeing him as a black man who doesn't know his place. Interestingly, Gillespie is also a bit of an outsider, new to the job and possibly the town. This similarity brings the two main characters closer together as does Gillespie's growing respect for Tibbs, as a police officer, who is obviously smarter than him, and as a man who demands respect, on display when Tibbs slaps Endicott (Larry Gates), a wealthy town leader who is opposed to Colbert's factory, in immediate response to Endicott slapping him first. As In the Heat of the Night progresses, what is revealed about the main characters is as important as the plot, making for a very satisfying story.
The video has been given a 1080p/MPEG-4 AVC encoded transfer displayed at an aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The color palette uses a lot of earth tones with limited primary colors. Blacks are solid, and cinematographer Haskell Wexler intentionally uses darkness and shadows to obscure in some scenes, Great details can be seen in the textures of buildings. Grain is apparent. Objects have soft edges. A slight bit of banding around street lights during opening credits. The audio comes as a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track. Dialogue comes out the front center channel as does Charles' vocals. Both sound clear. The surrounds deliver Quincy Jones' impressive jazz score and minimal sound effects.
As with other MGM catalog titles on Blu-ray, the film starts right up rather than going to the menu first. The extras are taken from past DVD releases, 2001 and 2008, and appear in SD. There's an extremely informative commentary created by separate interview sessions with director Norman Jewison, Wexler, Steiger and Grant. "Turning up the Heat: Movie-Making in the 60's" (21 min) looks at the film and its historical significance through interviews with those who worked on the film, such as Jewison, Wexler, producer Walter Mirisch, and composer Quincy Jones, along with those who appreciated it, such as directors John Singleton and Reginald Hudlin. The same group of interviewees talk about "The Slap Heard Round the World" (7 min). "Quincy Jones: Breaking New Sound" (13 min) looks at his work on the film's score and its original song. Lastly is the Theatrical Trailer (HD, 3 min).
Nearly 50 years later, In the Heat of the Night remains an impressive work even though its power has been diminished due to the improvement of U.S. race relations since 1967. Main factors of the film's success are screenwriter Stirling Silliphant, who won an Oscar for his work, and the acting by Steiger, who won Best Actor, and Poitier, who wasn't even nominated even though his performance is more iconic, suggesting AMPAS members in 1968 may have had more in common with the film's Southern characters than they would like to admit. The film is also notable for its Oscar-winning editing by future director Hal Ashby. The Blu-ray offers a satisfying high-def presentation and its few special features offer great insight into the film's creation and importance.

Intel has snapped up more shares in British firm, Imagination Technologies, a designer of video chips, buying 25 million more shares in the firm and taking Chipzilla to 13.99 per cent ownership.
"Intel Corporation has already licensed several generations of Imagination Technologies Group plc's graphics and video IP cores for deployment in Intel's PC, mobile computing and consumer architectures," said a company press release, announcing it now held 32 million shares in the designer of video chips for digital radios, media players, mobile phones and navigation devices. That's rather a lot of Imagination.
The investment itself was channeled through Intel Capital and makes Chipzilla the second biggest Imagination shareholder lagging only behind Saudi Arabia's Saad Group. The chip firm purportedly has no interest in buying Imagination outright, but is known to have bought up bits and bobs of intellectual property from the smaller firm.
Intel would appear to be in good company, as Apple is also among the shareholders (3.6 per cent stake) of a firm which boasts Texas Instruments, Samsung Electronics and Sharp as customers.
In the run up to Larrabee's release, Intel has been showing increased interest in the world of all things graphic as it prepares to launch its inaugural Calpella discrete graphics chip.
As Intel bought itself some more Imagination, Wall Street bought itself more stock, sending share prices for the firm up by 12.7 per cent.

McBain, Ed Bread
Publisher: Mandarin, 1995
Was the warehouse fire an accident? And why was the warehouse's security guard lying dead outside? The detectives of the 87th Precinct must listen to a bloodcurdling tape which is their best clue to solving a tangle of arson, dope, homicide and pornography.
Stephen King and Nelson DeMille on Ed McBain
I think Evan Hunter, known by that name or as Ed McBain, was one of the most influential writers of the postwar generation. He was the first writer to successfully merge realism with genre fiction, and by so doing I think he may actually have created the kind of popular fiction that drove the best-seller lists and lit up the American imagination in the years 1960 to 2000. Books as disparate as The New Centurions, The Friends of Eddie Coyle, The Godfather, Black Sunday, and The Shining all owe a debt to Evan Hunter, who taught a whole generation of baby boomers how to write stories that were not only entertaining but that truthfully reflected the times and the culture. He will be remembered for bringing the so-called "police procedural" into the modern age, but he did so much more than that. And he was one hell of a nice man. --Stephen King
Way back in the mid-1970s, when I was a new writer and police series were very big, my editor asked me to do a series called Joe Ryker, NYPD. I had no idea how to write a police detective novel, but the editor handed me a stack of books and said, "These are the 87th Precinct novels by Ed McBain. Read them and you'll know everything you need to know about police novels." After I read the first book--which I think was Let's Hear It for the Deaf Man--I was hooked, and I read every Ed McBain I could get my hands on. Then I sat down and wrote my own detective novel, The Sniper, featuring Joe Ryker. My series never reached the heights of the 87th Precinct series, but by reading those classic masterpieces, I learned all I needed to know about urban crime and how detectives think and act. And I had a hell of a time learning from the master. Years later, when I actually got to meet Ed McBain/Evan Hunter, I told him this story, and he said, "I would have liked it better if my books inspired you to become a detective instead of becoming my competition." Evan and I became friends, and I was privileged to know him and honored to be in his company. I remain indebted to him for his good advice over the years. But most of all, I thank him for hundreds of hours of great reading. --Nelson DeMille

Harding's Battery at Europa Point, Gibraltar Ron is named after Sir George Harding, Chief Engineer at Gibraltar in 1844. It was the site of gun battery for many years although it saw many changes and continued to be updated until the late 20th Century when it became obsolete.
During the Second World War a Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft gun was sited at Harding's Battery as part of the southern defensive fortifications of the Rock of Gibraltar. The battery overlooks the route from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean and across to the North African coast.
In 2010 work began to restore Harding's Battery as part of an overall project in the Europa Point district of Gibraltar. The first part of the work was completed in 2011, with visitor centre displays created in what used to be the underground ammunition chambers beneath the gun emplacement.
In June 2013 the 12.5 inch 38 ton RML gun (actual weight 50 tons / 45 tonnes) located at Dockyard South Gate was moved to Harding's Battery and mounted in the gun position. This gun was originally sited at Alexandra Battery.
Photograph No. 1 shows Harding's Battery in its restored condition while photograph No.2 shows a close up view of the 12.5 inch gun. Photograph No. 3 shows one of the former ammunition chambers. They have been made out with interactive displays on various aspects of Gibraltar's heritage - such as its prehistory, maritime history and ornithology. Photograph No. 4 shows the mannekin of a WW2 soldier on lookout at the battery.


There have been a number of Christmas light switch on events in the major towns in Cumbria in the last couple of weeks. One of the last celebrations to mark the switch on of the lights and the start of the Christmas period is Windermere.
Saturday December 1st 2018 is the date for the switch on of the Windermere Christmas lights and as always, it is far more than just flicking a switch. Late afternoon the festivities begin mulled wine, mince pies, various food and drink stalls, Smooth Radio to entertain and then fireworks to finish. Being December 1st this year, it starts the this festive month perfectly.
Santa will depart from Windermere train station on his float with his reindeer before magically switching on the lights at around 5pm and going on to The Rec with a celebratory fireworks display. The event is a true community one being organised, marketed and supported by a local group of volunteers who have been busy putting all the lights up around the town over the past two weeks.
So if there's ever a weekend this winter to come and visit Windermere, this is it. Furthermore, it is an excellent time to get away before Christmas and the shops in Windermere and Bowness are gift purchasing heaven especially the new Love the Lakes shop full of Lake District produced toiletries, homewares, food and beverages.
Accommodation for the weekend and next when it is the Windermere Christmas Celebration street market can be found via AllofTheLakeDistrict.co.uk.

Looking for KitchenAid at Hometown Brand Center in Stillwater, OK?
Hometown Brand Center in Stillwater, OK is an authorized dealer of KitchenAid Products. KitchenAid is an American home appliance brand owned by Whirlpool Corporation. The company was started in 1919 by The Hobart Corporation to produce stand mixers; the "H-5" was the first model introduced. The company faced stiff competition as rivals moved into this emerging market, and introduced its trademarked silhouette in the 1930s with the model "K", the work of designer Egmont Arens. The brand's stand mixers have changed little in design since, and attachments from the model "K" onwards are compatible with the modern machines. Dishwashers were the second product line to be introduced, in 1949.
In 1985, the company purchased the Chambers Company to incorporate its range of cookers into the KitchenAid brand. Refrigerators were added to the product line later in 1986. KitchenAid began manufacturing blenders and other small appliances in the mid-1990s. The brand was further promoted by sponsoring the PBS show Home Cooking, and by introducing the mixers to television chefs such as Julia Child and Martha Stewart.

Call for Papers: "Endless Discovery: Re-evaluating Japan's Travel and Tourism" | What can I do with a B.A. in Japanese Studies?
In 2015, Japan welcomed a record of close to 20 million tourists. This is partially due to the success of national government's policies through the campaigns launched by the Japan National Tourism Organization via its international offices. International visitors were not only attracted to visit Japan through these national government campaigns. On the one hand, "contents tourism" or film-induced/media-induced tourism has become in vogue as well. Early on, the target market for "contents tourism" was a domestic market, who consume domestic media, which in turn evolved to domestic tourism via the visitation of the "sites of the contents." With the globalization of Japanese media, even foreign visitors now engage in this domestic "contents tourism." Furthermore, the sites have expanded to encourage domestic (Japanese) consumers to travel abroad when the sites are purportedly set in foreign countries. Local governments in Japan have also ventured into their own domestic tourism strategies, with local governments aggressively encouraging foreign movie companies to use their cities as filming sites. There are other local governments which have launched their own domestic campaigns which have also attracted the attention of international visitors. Finally, a recent trend in Japan is directed services, particularly to Muslim tourists with special needs like halal food and prayer rooms.
On the other hand, the Philippines was able to attract a total of 5.4 million visitors in the same year. This is partially due to the successes of the Department of Tourism with its campaigns such as "It's More Fun in the Philippines." However, we still lag behind in our domestic tourism campaigns, with the capacities to attract foreign visitors.
Other related topics are also welcome. Please submit the abstracts to this link on or before 30 October 2017. All submissions will be refereed.
Abstracts and bios should be in English. Please include a title, your name, affiliation, contact details (mailing address, email) and a brief description of your paper (maximum of 500 words).

Home/World/Turkey urged by int'l watchdog to improve fight against money laundering, terrorist financing: report
Turkey urged by int'l watchdog to improve fight against money laundering, terrorist financing: report
The warning by the Financial Action Taskforce (FATF) comes in a report by the body, published on Monday, that found the country lacking in a series of standards.
Turkey has been warned by an international watchdog to improve "serious shortcomings" in its approach to combating money laundering and terrorist financing or face being added to an international "grey list" — a step that could damage its ability to attract foreign financing, Financial Times reported.
Ankara will be now subject to special monitoring by the organization, which was founded in 1989 to combat to combat money laundering, terror financing and other similar threats to the integrity of the international financial system.
If it fails to improve over the coming year, it risks being added to an FATF "grey list" along with countries such as Pakistan, Mongolia and Yemen.
Turkey was so unhappy with the report that it lobbied fellow members of the intergovernmental body to block it prior to publication, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Turkey's strategic location, bordering Syria, Iraq and Iran as well as the EU, makes it vulnerable to criminal activities, including drug smuggling, human trafficking and terrorism.
While the report says Turkey "has understood the risks it faces from money laundering and terrorist financing," it finds "serious shortcomings in the country's framework to combat these crimes."
In a list of 11 effectiveness measures, the country is deemed to need "major" or "fundamental" improvements in nine.
The report acknowledges that Turkey has pursued a range of terror suspects in the courts. But it says specific charges related to terrorist financing and money laundering are often given low priority by prosecutors, who tend to focus on other, more serious charges. It says the practice creates a missed opportunity to "discover financiers and go deeper to understand the broader network and support system" of international terrorist groups.
It also lists multiple concerns that Turkey has failed to implement, or been slow to enforce, UN sanctions designations aimed at stymying Iran, North Korea and the Taliban.

Hedda Eulenberg (* 6. März 1876 in Meiderich als Hedwig Maase; † 13. September 1960 in Kaiserswerth) war eine deutsche Übersetzerin und Schriftstellerin.

Leben

Hedda  Eulenberg wurde 1876 in Duisburg-Meiderich als Tochter des Musikdirektors Wilhelm Maase geboren. Sie machte 1893 Abitur an der Luisenschule Düsseldorf und heiratete 1897 in Berlin den Schriftsteller Arthur Moeller van den Bruck, den sie schon aus ihrer Schulzeit in Düsseldorf kannte. 1901 lernte sie den Dichter Herbert Eulenberg anlässlich der Uraufführung seines Stückes Münchhausen in Berlin kennen. Arthur Moeller van den Bruck floh im selben Jahr aus politischen und auch wirtschaftlichen Gründen nach Frankreich.

1901 erschien ihre zehnbändige Übersetzung der Werke von E. A. Poe bei J. C. C. Bruns. 1902 erschienen im Julius Bard Verlag als Übersetzungen aus dem Französischen die Novellen Liebesbriefe von Michel Provins und Die Gattin von Jeanne Marni. 1903 erschien die Übersetzung Germinal von Émile Zola als deutsche Erstübersetzung bei Reclam.

Hedda Eulenberg wurde 1904 von Moeller van den Bruck geschieden und heiratete Herbert Eulenberg. Das Paar übersiedelte 1905 nach Kaiserswerth bei Düsseldorf, wo Herbert Eulenberg am Schauspielhaus unter Louise Dumont als Dramaturg arbeitete. Bis 1936 war sie in ihrem neuen Zuhause als Übersetzerin der Werke von Guy de Maupassant, Zola und Charles Dickens tätig, die bei Phillip Reclam (Leipzig), bei J. C. C. Bruns (Minden) und bei der Nymphenburger Verlagsanstalt (München) verlegt wurden. Im gleichen Zeitraum veröffentlichte sie zahlreiche Zeitungsartikel, vor allem über den Monismus.

1936 begann die Verfolgung von Hedda und Herbert Eulenberg durch die Nationalsozialisten. Nach 1938 fand Hedda Eulenberg keinen deutschen Verlag mehr, bei dem sie ihre Arbeiten hätte veröffentlichen können. Ihr Bruder, der Rechtsanwalt Friedrich Maase (1878–1959), wurde ebenso verfolgt, der Neffe Klaus Maase (1904–2001) im KZ Buchenwald inhaftiert, dessen Frau Doris Maase (1911–1979) im KZ Ravensbrück.

1945 folgten erste Versuche, die nach 1936 abgebrochene kulturelle Tätigkeit wieder aufzunehmen. 1952 erschien ihre Autobiografie Im Doppelglück von Kunst und Leben. 1956 konnte sie mit Übersetzungen von Henri Troyat, Yvette Guilbert und Thomas Burke, alle im Düsseldorfer Droste Verlag, an ihre alte Tätigkeit wieder anknüpfen. Am 13. September 1960 starb sie in Kaiserswerth im "Haus Freiheit".

Thrown into the Troubled Sea
By: Patricia Summers
People say, "It's not what happens to you, but how you handle it."
Three countries, several lives, but one family.
It is Patricia Summers' past, future, and present. Just a small kid that was thrown into the sea of life; deemed at birth she would be in a children's nursing home, but her God stepped in and had other plans for her. A team of doctors took twenty-three hours to do the surgery. One, at that time, was not done before and one was a complete success, but down through her life she was one of them, to show that the struggles in the sea do not cause you to drown, she was able to walk on the other shore, cold, wet, and shaken, but on a firm foundation, with God by her side.
The author believes that only to God and through God she could even write this book. The names and the places have been changed, but the facts are real. As a child writing the stories down she did the best she could, but she could not read past a first grade level until the age of eighteen. She went on to get her GED and later became a graduate of a Bible college. Now she is an author. She feels readers will weep with her and rejoice in all the storms she overcame, to make her life what it is today.
Patricia wants readers to go along on the journey of her family and through her life, just to get a glimpse of a small ship of a life, which was thrown into a troubled sea.

Director: Ben Safdie & Joshua Safdie
Starring: Robert Pattinson, Jennifer Jason Leigh & Barkhad Abdi
The director brothers Josh and Bennie Safdie deliver, as the title suggests, a damn good film experience. Their names may not be overly familiar yet but after this, their third film, audiences will be hungry for more. The premise is simple: fraternal love. It is an invigorating, breathtaking and sublime piece of filmmaking that never loses its momentum and delivers several emotional gut punches before the end credits.
Nick Nikas has special needs and is hard of hearing in contrast to his brother Connie; street wise, sociopathic with a world weariness that belies his age. The film opens with Nick meeting with his psychologist and Connie putting a stop to the session when his brother starts to cry. They then commit a bank robbery ostensibly so that they can get enough money to buy a farm and live free and far away from everyone. However, things don't quite go to plan and Nick falls through the glass door and is apprehended by the police whilst Connie escapes. What ensues is a night full of absurdity and desperation as Connie tries to obtain his brother's freedom from prison by any means necessary.
Robert Pattinson delivers as the well intentioned, older, sociopathic brother – with simmering rage throughout. Forget the Twilight trilogy and watch Robert Pattison step into the sunlight. This is a role that makes you think of Al Pacino and John Cazale in Dog Day Afternoon (1975). The build up of tension is incredible. The film perfectly depicts the individuals trying to remain in control when in actual fact they are in control of nothing. It shows life in all of its absurdity and as the saying goes the best laid plans do not always go to plan.
Like Joel and Ethan Coen and Jean-Pierre & Luc Dardenne it is almost as if the Safdie brothers are their progeny mixing the absurd with the bleak in portraying everyday life. Remember their names, the Safdie brothers are destined to be around for a long time.
Special mention must go the supporting cast who in the very truest sense support the principal roles, most prominently Robert Pattinson who is in every scene. What the Safdie brothers do is to use each character in a similar way as Paolo Sorrentino by revealing key facets of the main characters. Jennifer Jason Leigh may only have had ten minutes of screen time but she is electrifying and she demonstrates the chaos and turmoil swirling in Connie's mind. Also special mention goes to Taliah Webster who plays Crystal the 16 year old granddaughter as well as Buddy Duress who plays Ray. The Safdie brothers introduce us to them, let us engage and then brutally turn their world upside down just as it seems to be going well. This is life people – it is unpredictable and this film captures it perfectly. The social commentary that runs throughout especially on people on the fringes of society and the harsher treatment people of colour suffer is well done with a lightness of touch that allows the viewer to reflect rather than feel manipulated by the director's intention. This is a must see.

Q: How to delay an animation in jquery I'm kinda new to jquery and I have created an hide/show animation for a page, what this animation does is when you hover on the link "Call us" it shows a phone (1800blabla) but now I've been asked that the phone number should have a delay before it hides back again. I will appreciate any help. Please find the code below.
