Porcupines: Straight to the Point
They've been called pin-cushions, spiny backs and many other things, but an encounter with a porcupine that is having a bad day could leave you pining for help. Contrary to common myths, porcupines (Erethizon dorsatum) are not ferocious, quill-shooting critters. If cornered and threatened, however, a sharp message will be delivered to leave it alone. The quills of a porcupine are modified hairs. Porkies are born with soft quills, but as they get older, the quills become hard and sharp. They cannot shoot their quills at an attacker, but because the quills are so loosely attached to the rodent's body, they release freely when touched by a predator's nose or paw. And with 30,000 quills on the average adult porcupine, the chances of getting a nose-full are high. Porkies can be found in eastern and western Canada as well as the northeastern and western U.S. and Alaska.

HDNet Fights Video Vault (bonus edition): Thomas Denny vs. Pat Miletich
by MMAjunkie.com Staff on Feb 25, 2009 at 5:25 pm ET
Each week HDNet and MMAjunkie.com release a new and exclusive fight from the ever-growing HDNet Fights video library. Stunning knockouts, slick submissions and shocking finishes are the norm for this weekly feature.
Miletich (28-7-2), fighting for just the second time in six years, took on the always-busy Denny (26-17) at the Dec. 11 event.
The show, organized by longtime MMA agent and promoter Monte Cox, took place at the i wireless Center in Moline, Ill., and aired live on HDNet.
Would ring rust be an issue for Miletich, a legendary trainer and former UFC welterweight champion who had most recently suffered a first-round submission loss to Renzo Gracie (at a September 2006 IFL event)? Or would Denny rebound from his second-round TKO loss to Nick Diaz at a July 2008 CBS-televised EliteXC event and topple one of the sport's true superstars?
Check out the embedded clip for the full fight.
(NOTE: HDNet and MMAjunkie.com were recently required to remove this week's "HDNet Fights Video Vault" clip of Fedor Emelianenko and Andrei Arlovski that was posted on Tuesday. The rights to that fight won't kick in until later this year, so we'll repost the clip in September.)
Each week MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) and HDNet Fights (www.hdnetfights.com) team up for "HDNet Fights Vault," which offer a new and unique video from the organization's ever-growing fight library. The weekly feature is a continuation of a partnership MMAjunkie.com and HDNet formed earlier this year. For more information on HDNet, which broadcasts more MMA events than any other TV outlet, visit www.hd.net.

Hi All,
Wondering if you can help me make a decision. Im 5'11, 90 kegs and have been surfing again for only 3 years after stopping for 10 years due to work. I am keen to get a small wave board that can paddle into anything and stops me having to lug a 706 around (I am really disliking anything over 606 now - the shorter the better).
I have had a look at the Spitfire and the Potatonator and can't decide which I should get especially as this will be my first firewire (and first factory board as all my boards to date have been shaped locally). I've read all the commentary I can on the 2 boards and still cant decide which one to get.
At 90 kegs, getting moving is more like a cruise liner than a speed boat, so when the surf is small or fat I tend to miss more than i get on my current 602 or 606 and regularly get pipped by the older chaps on their longboards.
I've made the decision to go with a Rapidfire board and now just need to decide which of the 2 shapes I get. Either shape in 604 or 606.
Any help would be awesome!

Title:A 'Bear' Chance Artist:Philip R. Goodwin Date:1907 Creation Place:North America, United States Credit Line:Gift of the National Biscuit Company Accession Number:70.64 The Cream of Wheat Company originally commissioned this painting, along with the two Newell Convers Wyeth paintings in this same gallery, as advertisements for their cereals. Philip R. Goodwin, an artist known for his wildlife paintings, received this important commission while in his early 20s, though it was not his first public work. At the age of 11, Goodwin sold an illustrated story to Collier's, a weekly illustrated journal that pioneered photojournalism. Goodwin continued to work on commercial commissions by producing illustrations for magazines and also covers for The Saturday Evening Post. |

Our Monarchs showed up on May 27th this year. I found eggs on June 5th. The first larvae I saw was on June 14th. We were away several days in that period so the dates may not be accurate other than my calendar.
Our 86 crysalids should start producing emerging Monarchs soon. Then what happens to them? We're in central Canada. We've never seen second generation Monarchs here, so what do our released and naturally emerging butterflies do? Last year I found a few eggs after we witnessed some emergences but never saw any larvae result from them. And the Monarchs just "went away."
Given our location, what is the likelihood that we can expect a second generation? If our released Monarchs DON'T deposit more eggs what does happen to them? I would think it's way too early for these guys to be migrating! We have a good Monarch book but it isn't specific about this issue. Has anyone in the northern part of the country had experiences which may help us understand this better?

Does my writing seem a little crisper today? My verbs a bit snappier? It's probably because I am wearing Kineseo tape, an athletic tape popular with beach volleyball players and other Olympic competitors. American Kerri Walsh Jennings has a black spider pattern on her right shoulder, German Katrin Holtwick has thin blue strips from the top of her bikini to her bottom, and other athletes at Horse Guards Parade use it in a variety of colors and patterns. Mei Brownfield, a physical therapist working with the American teams, cut off a piece of the plain black stuff for me to try. Stretching the tape to twice its length, I put it on my right shoulder. I have a vague sense that something's there but it is neither invigorating nor annoying. Brownfield tells me it has different effects — it can activate the muscle or relax it, depending on how it's applied. But she can't tell me how to put it on so I write better. —Jimmy Golen — Twitter http://twitter.com/jgolen ___ EDITOR'S NOTE — "Eyes on London" shows you the Olympics through the eyes of Associated Press journalists across the 2012 Olympic city and around the world.

Closing Costs » HUD-1: A Borrower's Guide
A pile of paperwork thuds onto the closing table at any home sale or refinance. One of the key documents is a government-mandated settlement statement that dissects the costs of the deal. It also assures borrowers that they are receiving the loan they agreed on. Whether you buy, sell or refinance, you get this form, called the HUD-1.
Depending on local customs, buyers, sellers and borrowers might receive more than one estimated HUD-1 prior to closing, so they can track new information and changes as the loan progresses. The last HUD-1 might not be issued until the transaction has been closed and recorded, and all of the charges and prepaid interest are known to the last penny, according to Phyllis Yanagihara, a certified senior escrow officer at Master Escrow in Glendale, Calif.
It's pronounced "hud one." The name refers to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which introduced the current version of the form in January 2010.
Download a copy of the HUD-1 in PDF format. Here's a look at the form's main sections:
Sections B through H of the settlement statement describe parameters of the transaction, including the name and address of the buyer, seller and lender, the property address, the name of the settlement company, and the closing date.
Borrowers should pay attention to the loan type, suggests Kimberly Green, operations director at Quicken Loans in Detroit.
"If you're signing up for an FHA (Federal Housing Administration-insured) loan, you want to make sure that first box that's checked is FHA, whereas if you think you're getting a conventional loan and the FHA box is checked, definitely question it," she says.
Section J summarizes the buyer's or borrower's costs. The figures in the so-called 100 series are sums due from the buyer or borrower, with line 120 being the total. The 200 series figures are amounts credited to the buyer or borrower, with line 220 being the total. The 300 series pulls the totals from line 120 and 220 to calculate line 303, the total amount due to or from the buyer or borrower at closing.
Section K shows sums due to the seller in the 400 series, reductions in the amount due to the seller in the 500 series, and the total amount due to or from the seller in the 600 series.
Some states require separate settlement statements for the buyer and seller while other states allow both sides to be shown on one statement, Green explains.
"If you're a buyer and the seller side is blank, it's not a concern," she says.
This section, on Page 2, contains the 700 series of real estate brokerage fees, 800 series of lender fees, 900 series of prepaid charges (such as interest and mortgage insurance), 1000 series of escrow (or impound) deposits, 1100 series of title insurance fees, 1200 series of government recording fees and transfer taxes, and 1300 series of other settlement charges. The last is a catchall used for such miscellaneous expenses as a home inspection or pest control report.
Escrow deposits, if any, are set aside by the lender to pay the buyer's or borrower's property taxes and homeowners insurance premiums. Green says lenders typically collect a cushion in case the amounts increase, but they aren't allowed to pad the account.
"You want to make sure there are sufficient funds to be able to pay those (expenses) when they're due," she says.
Page 3, on which this section appears, is "the best page and the most important" for borrowers, Green says. The first column in the top three sections recaps the Good Faith Estimate, or GFE, which discloses the buyer's or borrower's loan charges. The second column recaps the HUD-1 charges, allowing a line-by-line comparison of the estimates to the actual costs.
The total, shown at the bottom of the second chart as both a dollar amount and percentage, discloses the difference between the GFE and HUD-1 with respect to costs that can't increase at all or can't increase by more than 10 percent. If the lender miscalculated or didn't properly disclose these charges, a refund must be issued to the buyer or borrower for the overage, Yanagihara explains.
"It does happen on occasion," she says.
The final section recaps the terms of the loan, including the initial loan amount, interest rate, monthly payment of principal, interest and mortgage insurance, if any, and loan term. The questions and check boxes disclose whether the rate can rise, whether the loan balance or payment can increase, and whether the loan has a prepayment penalty or balloon payment. Further details should be noted if any of the "yes" boxes are checked.

Sampson County is one of just 19 counties in the state that does not have formal smoke-free regulations in place for its county buildings. Health director Wanda Robinson wants to change that.
She recently brought the issue up to the Board of Commissioners, who were split on the issue during discussion.
"I'm asking for the possibility of putting in place an ordinance that we are a smoke-free grounds," said Robinson. "Secondhand smoke is very dangerous. That still is a part of some of these agencies around here, smoking indoors and that sort of thing. I'd like you to consider this. I really feel it would be beneficial."
N.C. law took effect in 2010 expanding local government's authority to regulate smoking in government buildings and vehicles, on government grounds and for certain enclosed public places.
There are currently 81 counties in North Carolina that have, through a written regulation, 100 percent smoke-free or tobacco-free government buildings (70 counties have restrictions only on county buildings, while the other 11 have a comprehensive Board of Health rule or county board-approved ordinances in place).
There are 233 municipalities with such regulations. The town of Garland recently became one of those.
Garland last year passed a smoke-free ordinance for buildings, vehicles, grounds and enclosed public places. Autryville, Roseboro and Clinton are all also tobacco-free, as are all local schools and the Sampson Regional Medical Center. The Sampson Community College is also reportedly going the smoke-free route this year as part of its accreditation. The college currently has a 25 feet outside buildings rule.
Robinson wants Sampson's government to go a similar direction.
"I think if you're looking at promoting the health of the citizens of Sampson County, this is a good thing to do,"said Robinson.
County survey results taken in January 2013 show that most individual buildings and departments are smoke-free. However, some are not entirely, notably the Sampson County Clerk of Court and Sampson County Emergency Services. Members of the public smoke outside the courthouse building, on the steps and sidewalks, and there is currently no limit as to how far away from the building they need to be. Smoking is allowed in certain areas of Emergency Services.
"The majority of the agencies are already smoke-free," said Robinson. "It is an unwritten policy. We already have it in place, but we don't have a written document to say that we have it in place."
She did say there are a lot of people who take smoke breaks on the County Complex grounds.
"Not only do we need to look at having our grounds smoke-free, but it would be interesting to implement some wellness activities," said Robinson. Often cessation and wellness program go hand-in-hand with smoke-free and tobacco-free policies.
Some commissioners raised concerns, taking into account Sampson's tobacco-growing history and what the crop still means to the county.
"We have some large tobacco farmers in Sampson County," said Commissioner Jarvis McLamb.
Commissioner Albert Kirby said his father was a tobacco farmer. He attested too that it is a big crop in the county, and feelings have evolved over the years.
"We've come to a different crossroads in our community. It is a different place now than what it was 50 years ago." said Kirby. "It is a place, I think, where tobacco farmers and all would understand if there were some type of parameters around (tobacco use). Not taking away anyone's ability to smoke, but putting in parameters."
Kirby said he would be for regulations in county buildings that would require employees to go outside, where he would likely have been against such action 10 years ago.
The state regulates smoking in all state-owned buildings, as well as restaurants and bars. Locally, Robinson said, she thought there would be an uproar when those changes took effect, but there wasn't. Robinson reiterated that the only thing keeping the county from a smoke-free designation is a formal document.
Commissioner Jefferson Strickland took the stance that many departments already embrace a smoke-free atmosphere, with a few exceptions. He said the county board shouldn't try to fix something that isn't broken.
"I think our system we have in place right now is working," said Strickland. "I just don't see it as being a big problem."
Chairman Billy Lockamy agreed, but Robinson reminded them that there was no system in place. Many departments simply were smoke-free, but it was not because of a policy that was formally followed but rather a suggestion amongst county staff years ago.
"We don't have anything in place. Nothing is actually written anywhere," said Robinson. "If you're not going to go with the grounds, at least our county buildings should be smoke-free."
Strickland went down the list of county buildings provided by Robinson, nearly all of which were smoke-free. He asked whether members of the county staff had ever witnessed anyone smoking in county buildings.
They said they did not, however finance officer David Clack said there was "nothing to stop them from walking in and smoking." They could be asked to leave, but if they were refused, there was little recourse, Clack said.
"Since we already have a policy of no smoking in the buildings, passing an ordinance to support it shouldn't be a big burden if we just talk about the buildings by themselves," said Clack. "Since everybody is kind of used to it, it would be a way of giving the people within the offices the authority to actually say 'the law says you can't smoke here.'"
Robinson encouraged the board to at least consider adopting such an ordinance for buildings, if nothing else.
"I think it ought to be looked at and examined," said Kirby. "That is an unwritten policy. What would be the harm in passing an ordinance?"
Strickland said it would be "rubbing it in the farmer's face." Kirby said he could understand that, but said the state map does not look good, with Sampson one of the only counties in the Southeastern part of the state with no smoke-free regulations.
"Just because these other counties do it, doesn't scare me one bit," Lockamy said. "It doesn't make any difference to me."
Strickland said he simply did not see an existing issue with which the county needed to deal.
"I've been in and out of government buildings weekly for the last five years — longer than that," said Strickland. "I don't see smoking anywhere in the county buildings. And I don't see any ashtrays anywhere, and that's a dead-giveaway."
Commissioner Harry Parker said he wanted such smoke-free regulations against smoking simply because of the adverse health effects to employees, and the associated healthcare costs.
"Secondhand smoke is just as dangerous as smoking," said Parker. "That's my feeling."
While punishments could be part of a policy, Parker said it was not about fines and enforcement. It was rather about having the "teeth" to smoking regulations that a formal policy would bring. Posted signs "would make a world of difference" in serving as a deterrent. Kirby concurred, offering that as a possibility that might not slight farmers and others, but in getting the county to a smoke-free status.
"Maybe if it was something that did not have any kind of punitive aspect to it," said Kirby, "but sort of a mission statement."
Robinson said she could draft something for commissioners to consider. No action was taken.

Small Hands Christmas Wreath
You will need:
green construction paper, pencil, scissors, glue, odds 'n' ends (e.g. ribbons, sequins, glitter, coloured paper)
Students will need about 8 – 10 tracings of their open hand on green construction paper. Cut out the hand shapes. Arrange the hands in a circle with the wrists overlapping and the fingers pointing out. Glue into position to form a wreath shape. Students can then decorate their wreath using pieces of the 'odds 'n' ends' materials. For example, they could add ribbons, bows, small Christmas shapes (e.g. stars, presents, bows to trace from templates), glitter or sequins to complete their wreath.
Display around the classroom or send home as a keepsake for parents or grandparents. Date the back of the wreath with the child's name, age and year.
NOTE: Younger students may need assistance with varying parts of this activity.

Jackie Chan
Many popular books and fan guides on Jackie Chan (b. 1954) exist; however, most of the film-studies scholarship on Chan dates from the period in which he enjoyed the most visibility on American screens. Although a major star in Asia who had previously made some films in Hollywood, Chan only achieved widespread recognition in the United States in the mid-1990s. When New Line Cinema picked up Rumble in the Bronx (1995), reedited and rescored it, and released it in 1996, it opened the way for a wider appreciation of Chan's martial artistry and stunt work among mainstream American audiences. In addition to continuing to make films in Asia, Chan began to work on American features, including the Rush Hour series (1998, 2001, 2007), Shanghai Noon (2000), Shanghai Knights (2003), and The Karate Kid (2010), among other films. Born in 1954 in Hong Kong, and trained as a child at a Peking Opera school, Chan helped to revitalize the Hong Kong kung fu genre after the death of Bruce Lee by injecting it with a heavier dose of humor. As a major star of the "kung fu comedy," Chan developed a screen persona that emphasized his vulnerability, mischievousness, youthful vigor, flexibility, and general amiability. Off-screen, he cultivated a reputation for imaginative and dangerous stunt work that often resulted in injuries, which he incorporated into the outtakes in his films. Most of the scholarship on Chan deals with his star image and importance to the history of Hong Kong cinema. His screen persona has been examined primarily in connection to questions of ethnicity, race, and masculinity. Scholars have also analyzed Chan as a public figure and "brand name" in relation to Hong Kong's image as a "global" city. Other studies look at Chan in terms of postmodern hybridity, globalization, the kung fu comedy, and the development of the action genre internationally. Research on Chan's career parallels scholarly interest in Hong Kong cinema more generally, with a growth spurt around the time of the territory's change in sovereignty from British colony to Special Administrative Region (SAR) under Chinese (PRC) jurisdiction in 1997.
Scholarly Books, Anthologies, and Reference Resources
Few scholars of Hong Kong, Chinese-language, Asian American, or Asian regional cinema fail to mention Jackie Chan. However, many only touch on him. Still, these references can be key to understanding how Chan fits into the broader dynamics of global film culture. Jackie Chan, then, often becomes an example of a trend or part of a larger argument. Scholarly reference works also include entries on Jackie Chan as a key figure in Asian film studies.

South African Natural Heritage Sites
Did you know?
....the force of impact of the Vredefort meteorite forced gold to the earh's surface?
South Africa's four natural heritage sites each foreground the planet's natural elements - water, air, earth and fire - in some way.
The iSimangaliso Wetland Park may feature a surprising range of habitats and eco-systems, but the overpowering theme here is water. Trailing up 280 km of KwaZulu-Natal coastline, it includes Africa's largest estuary at Lake St Lucia, a 60 km-long river mouth parallel to the coast yet separated by forested sand dunes. Drawn to this water world are hundreds of bird species and some interesting amphibians, while in the wild Indian Ocean waters off shore, the passing sea traffic includes whales and sharks.
Air or, more precisely wind, has been a force in the uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park, shaping the spectacular mountain scenery. Carving breathtaking precipices and soaring peaks, the wind has left South Africa with a natural world heritage site not only for the eyes to marvel at, but to challenge the body with rock climbing, abseiling and hiking. In the winter, when snow dusts these wind-hewn monuments, the stunning visual effect is doubled.
In the Cape Floral Region, a South African natural heritage site that stretches from the Peninsula to the Eastern Cape, Mother Earth has given birth to a plant life so rich, it includes 3% of all the species to found in the world. A good share can only be seen in this corner of the globe.
In the formation of the fourth Natural World Heritage Site in South Africa, the Vredefort Dome that traverses the Free State and North West border, fire played a key role. This vast crater was shaped billions of years ago, when a meteorite the size of Table Mountains slammed into the earth. As it passed through the earth's atmosphere it heated up enormously, crashing to earth as a blazing fireball.

LOS ANGELES -- A former Hudson Valley Renegade is set to sign a huge free agent contract with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.
Josh Hamilton has reportedly agreed to a five-year deal worth $125 million with the Angels. The 2010 AL MVP delivered a strong 2012 season, but ran out of gas at the finish for the Texas Rangers. Even so, it was believed that Texas was the frontrunner to retain Hamilton.
But it wasn't in the cards, as the slugger leaves the Lone Star State for division rival Los Angeles.
The Angels are coming off a disappointing third-place finish in the AL West and should enter 2013 as favorites for the division crown.

An August house fire that destroyed a vacant South Beloit home has been declared arson. But, no charges have yet been filed as the investigation into who started the fire continues, fire Chief Ken Morse said.
The home at 909 Guetschow St. had been vacant for over a year before it was burned.
The building is beyond repair and it's unclear what will happen to the property.
The property's owner had offered to donate the small lot, which is across the street from Riverview Elementary School, to the city in return for the city demolishing the house, Morse said.

An orthopaedic surgeon, specialising in surgery of the lower limb, and sports-related injuries. Mr Wilson has wide experience in knee surgery.
Mr Christopher Wilson FRCS is a Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon at University Hospital of Wales NHS Trust, Cardiff, and has held this position since 1996. He also practices privately at Vale Healthcare – at the Cardiff Bay Clinic (located within Cardiff Bay) and at The Vale Hospital, in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales.
At the University Hospital of Wales unit, which is one of the busiest in the UK, Mr Wilson is responsible for the supervision and training of specialist orthopaedic trainees and visiting trainees from overseas. He spends one day a week in theatre conducting trauma operations, normally emergencies, and a further day every week performing more routine reconstructive surgery, mainly in the fields of knee, hip, and foot surgery. The remainder of his week is spent in out-patient clinics, in carrying-out training and teaching commitments and participating in an on-call rota for emergency work.
Most of Mr Wilson's routine operating timetable involves surgery of the major lower limb joints, with a large number of joint replacements, particularly in the more complicated cases such as those involving rheumatoid arthritis.
Although Mr Wilson has a general orthopaedic practice and sees the whole range of orthopaedic diseases, he has developed special interests in surgery of the lower limb and in accident and trauma surgery, together with reconstructive surgery following trauma.
Mr Wilson has a wide-ranging and varied medico-legal practice. As an active trauma surgeon, as well as being involved with the surgery of lower limb degenerative disease, he accepts instructions on all types of personal injury cases.
Mr Wilson makes extensive use of the available international literature (in particular the American research findings) which relate to outcome studies, predictions of disability, degrees of impairment, etc., and the medical research literature facilities available at the University Hospital of Wales are as comprehensive as any in the UK.
In addition, he regularly receives instructions in medical negligence cases, and it is his usual practice to request an initial perusal of the case papers before agreeing to act in any particular case.

About Wolfgang Puck
Austrian-born Wolfgang Puck began his formal training at age 14, inspired by his mother, Maria, a hotel chef. Encouraged by a friend, Wolfgang left Europe in 1973 at the age of 24, having already learned his craft as a classically trained French chef in the master kitchens of three-star French restaurants. After a stint at the restaurant La Tour in Indianapolis, Puck made the move to Los Angeles in 1975, and became both chef and part owner of Ma Maison, which quickly became a magnet for the rich and famous - with Puck as the starring attraction. Fame and acclaim quickly followed with his unique combination of dynamic personality and a culinary brilliance that bridged tradition and invention. Wolfgang has changed the way North Americans cook and eat by mixing formal French techniques and Asian- and California-influenced esthetics with the highest quality ingredients. Over a span of twenty years, he has founded a virtual empire of dining establishments, including 12 fine dining restaurants, and the newer Wolfgang Puck Bistro, Express and Cafe locations across the United States, into Canada and Japan. He has authored six popular cookbooks, and his weekly syndicated newspaper column, "Wolfgang Puck's Kitchen," appears in more than 30 newspapers throughout the United States and Canada, with a combined circulation of more than 5.3 million.
Wolfgang Puck Worldwide, Inc. (WPW), a privately held corporation, includes a rapidly growing international franchise of the fast-casual Wolfgang Puck Express restaurants, consumer products, book publishing, television, radio and internet programming, and other licensing and merchandising projects.

Waste of money
By Lindikin
from Ajax
This product is very disappointing ..... it is hard to refill, it runs to slow so I endup using my manual grinder. This product is good to put on the table when salt and pepper are needed. Don't waste your money.

I am very disappointed with this product
By Pen
from Kitchener, On
Very hard to fill and take apart. Inserted batteries (which were not supplied) and would not work. Pkg up and sending back.
easy to use
By Dronimoe
from Scarborough, Ontario
The product takes 6 batteries which is costly. That said, I was born missing some muscles in both my hands, so having an electronic mill makes things so much easier. I also like the light on the bottom making it easier to see how much salt you are using. All in all, I like the product.

Very disappointed
By Palootookalook
from Burford (ON)
Thought that these would be perfect for the kitchen and table. Not so. It takes 6 batteries for each mill and the motor is not very powerful as a matter of fact they die when they have to grind the salt. Very disappointed with this product and will return it.

Harlem On My Mind – Cultural Capital Of Black America 1900 to 1968
Book (Item 593739) New Press, 1968/1979/1995 — Condition: New Copy
The history of Harlem in the 20th Century – told through a wealth of vintage images and newspaper snippets – all laid out beautifully to present a vivid portrait of this uniquely American community! The subject matter varies a lot, especially as the years go by – and by taking straight snippets from the press, Allon Schoener manages to present Harlem's history through a shifting set of lenses – portrayals of the community that change greatly over the space of decades – showing a growing voice and empowered sense of identity, even as struggles increase and get more mainstream attention. The oversize book is softcover, 258 pages, and has almost as many vintage images as it does text! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |
