A Jacksonville favorite has reopened to shoppers excited for its return � and its new, oversized home.
A Jacksonville favorite has reopened to shoppers excited for its return � and its new, oversized home.
New River Pottery, formerly of Jacksonville�s New River Shopping Center, moved to Wilmington in 2009. The 42,000-square-foot New River Pottery recently opened in Jacksonville on Onslow Drive � in the former Rose Brothers Furniture store. Rose Brothers Furniture has moved to Bell Fork Road.
�The Jacksonville people supported the Wilmington store, and they supported the New Bern store, so we didn�t lose our customer base. It�s just a little closer to home now,� said Marsha Luckenbaugh, store manager, noting that many Jacksonville residents had been asking the company�s owner to bring a store back to the area for years.
She said in the last week, they have greeted shoppers from Wilmington, New Bern, Greenville and Raleigh who traveled to see the new store.
Luckenbaugh said she and her staff of 17 employees set up the store in about six weeks, in time for the grand opening Sept. 6.
�We had a phenomenal opening; it was very strong all weekend,� she said, estimating that they had more than a thousand customers come in on the first day alone. �And we�ve had a very strong beginning of the week. We�re hopeful that it�s going to continue.�
Luckenbaugh, who�s been with New River Pottery for more than a decade, said they take the most pride in their Christmas departments, which features 17 themed Christmas displays, with names such as �Harlequin Holiday� and �North Pole University.� Luckenbaugh said they also specialize in coastal d�cor, which includes miniature sail boats and glass buoys, to seashell-themed lamps.
Luckenbaugh said one of the store�s strengths is that is has something to offer to everyone: pet lover�s d�cor, traditional picture frames, sports d�cor, a large wedding section and various fall-themed items. They also offer a section entirely devoted to silk flowers, with do-it-yourself options as well as professional designers who can custom-make wreaths, cemetery, holiday and wedding pieces and more.
�We are very price conscious,� Luckenbaugh said, noting the weekly promotionals the store offers in the newspaper, which also includes money-saving coupons.
Becky Nye and Katie Gray, newcomers to Jacksonville, said they had never seen displays like the ones in New River Pottery. Nye said they were easily their favorite feature of the store because they inspired the duo on how to use the merchandise for their own projects.
�They give me ideas and I can run with it,� she said as she and Gray added supplies to their basket to make leopard and peacock-inspired wreaths.
Gray said the prices were also better than she expected.
�It�s definitely worth a trip out here,� she said.
Ray and Cynthia Howell of Swansboro say they are longtime fans of New River Pottery. Cynthia Howell said she was disappointed when New River Pottery closed its doors in Jacksonville in 2009, but she said the new location is �better than ever.�
The Howells said the new store is larger, provides more options in terms of merchandise and is a newer and cleaner building.
On Tuesday they were in the store looking for that �something special� to add to their Christmas menagerie, and they were considering enlisting the services of one of the store�s designers to do some custom floral work.
�Especially for the different seasonal things, it has a lot of interesting, different, and just fun things,� Ray Howell said, adding that the prices were reasonable for the quality of the products. He also said at the end of the seasons, the store offers �killer sales.�
Since the grand opening, Cynthia Howell already has come and gone, and bought four sacks� worth of merchandise. And that number was about to rise.
�I�m not leaving empty-handed today,� she said.
New River Pottery in Jacksonville is open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday to Saturday; and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.
Store locations
New River Pottery operates three stores:
� 2501 Onslow Drive in Jacksonville 910-939-4330
� 5744 Market St. in Wilmington 910-791-7522
� 3750 Sterling Pointe Drive in Greenville 252-756-1776

Radically Gay: The Life of Harry Hay
Exhibition on the Founder of the Gay Rights Movement,
San Francisco Main Library, Jewett Gallery, April 21 through July 29, 2012
On the centennial anniversary of his birth, the James C. Hormel Gay & Lesbian Center of the San Francisco Public Library is pleased to present an exhibition that celebrates the remarkable life and work of activist Harry Hay, who laid the foundation for the modern lesbian and gay rights movement. Radically Gay: The Life of Harry Hay, will be on view in the Main Library's Jewett Gallery, April 21-July 29, 2012.
This exhibition, curated by Joey Cain, explores the life, ideas and contributions of Hay, who is considered the founder of the modern Gay Movement. Drawing on original papers, ephemera, videos and personal items archived in the Harry Hay Papers Collection of the Library's History Center, the epic story of this compelling and complex civil rights leader is brought to life.
Chronicling Hay's life, the exhibition includes his early years through his labor activism and strong involvement with the Communist Party, to his founding of the Mattachine Society, the first gay activist group in America, and co-founding of the gay men's spirit group, the Radical Faeries. An actor, Communist labor organizer, musicologist, gay theoretician and political activist, Hay left a lasting mark that continues well into the 21st century.
The multifaceted exhibition explores Hay's work as an actor, his involvement in the avant-garde arts movement in 1930s Los Angeles, his participation in the San Francisco General Strike of 1934 and on to his activism in fighting fascism, racism and anti-Semitism in the 1940s. In 1948, at a time when homosexuality was considered by society to be an illness, Hay had the vision that homosexuals were a cultural minority that could organize themselves and create a community to fight for their human and civil rights.
Sixty years later, his vision developed into a worldwide civil rights movement and inspired the creation of Lesbian, Gay and Transgender communities on every continent. Hay continued his theoretical and organizational work for gay rights and social justice, right up until his death in 2002.
Related programs and exhibitions:
May 8: Opening program "Above All Audacity!"
Guest curator Joey Cain will give an introduction to the exhibition. Colleagues, friends and other community leaders will discuss Hay's contribution to the modern LGBT movement. Special guests include Jewelle Gomez, Phyllis Lyon, Sally Hay, niece of Harry Hay, Will Roscoe, Mark Thompson, Malcolm Boyd. Main Library, Koret Auditorium, 6 p.m.
June 13: Documentary: Hope Along the Wind: The Life of Harry Hay – Screening of award-winning documentary followed by Q & A with filmmaker, Eric Slade. This program is co-sponsored by the SF Pride Committee. Main Library, Koret Auditorium, 6 p.m.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Katherine from My go-to bowls I have a stack of these bowls in two kitchens and I've used them daily for at least three years. I have never broken or chipped a single bowl, even with one accidental drop on my granite countertop (although that might have been luck). I use them for everything, including both food prep and tabletop. Perfect size for small salads, desserts, Asian food and so much more. My work takes me to another city now, and I'm buying another set for another kitchen. I can't praise these enough! I also love the other pieces from the Zen Apilco line.Date published: 2018-10-22Rated 1 out of 5 by AimeeN from Do not buy these bowls! These bowls are inferior to other Apilco/Pillyvuit products. The design of the bowl lends itself to chipping on the rim--quickly. We have an entire set of Apilco dishes that have held up beautifully in the last few years--even though they're our everyday dishes and our kids use them. But every single bowl we own is chipped.Date published: 2015-01-18Rated 5 out of 5 by luli from great bowls I love them. Perfect size for my husband beat his egg omelete, also ice cream, rice, salad. I love Apilco is very good quality,also have other sizes from classic. tulieres and zen. Great product and made in France.Date published: 2014-09-17Rated 1 out of 5 by Rozzer from Quality is far less than I expected. Perhaps the "internet only" designation should have been a warning. I ordered these with other Apilco dishes, which seemed much better made. These rice bowls are slightly irregular in size (very slightly warped, that is) and have imperfections in the coating which I am noticing more and more of. (So specks embedded in the coating or tiny missed sections.) Even the Apilco symbol on the bottom seem poorly done when compared with the other Apilco dishes I received. Not happy with these and growing more unhappy the more I see these surface problems.Date published: 2012-03-11

Marvel's shared movie universe gamble has worked out well, thanks to The Avengers raking in well over $1 billion at the global box office. Over the past week, stories have been flying fast and furious, revealing that Warner Bros./DC are now pressing ahead full-steam with plans to usher in a new era of film featuring their own stable of superheroes. Although Dark Knight Rises will undoubtedly make a bundle for the studio(s) this summer, it's next year's Superman reboot, Man of Steel, which is expected to truly launch the new wave of DC movies.
Earlier this week we learned that slate of DC films will definitely include both a Wonder Woman movie and the long-gestating Justice League film. Today, we have news that both a Green Lantern reboot and Suicide Squad movie could also be on the menu (in the foreseeable future).
The Green Lantern news comes as little surprise, given the film's financial (under-)performance (longtime readers know all too well how we felt about that movie). However, Variety says that Warner Bros. and DC are currently trying to decide whether it would be better to bring back Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, and make a sequel/partial reboot (a la The Incredible Hulk) - or just start from scratch with a new actor, so as to "relaunch the character in a completely new way."
Part of the reason there are so many questions right now about what, exactly, Warner Bros./DC's future plans are with respect to live-action superhero movies has to do with TDKR director Christopher Nolan. As Variety points out in its report: the filmmaker not only rejuvenated the flailing Batman franchise into both a critical darling and a box office behemoth, he also oversaw Man of Steel during its early stages of development ("godfathered," if you will). Indeed, it's been speculated that Nolan's tendency to play things close to the vest is part of the reason why only one official image of Henry Cavill as the new Superman in Man of Steel has been released to date.
Whether or not Nolan agrees to serve as a "guide" and to determine which direction the DC movie universe takes, is the question right now. The filmmaker's decision could impact such issues as the decision to reboot/relaunch the Batman and/or Green Lantern series; whether or not there will be a shared continuity between movies like the impending Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and Aquaman solo ventures (or if each film will be primarily stand-alone) - and whether the Justice League movie will emulate the grounded and mature tone struck by Nolan's Batman trilogy, as Will Beall's JL script is already rumored to do.
That Warner Bros./DC would take so great a risk as to rely heavily on Nolan to supervise the creative territory for their coveted comic book properties is a direct response to how Marvel pulled off The Avengers so well - by hiring on a filmmaker (Joss Whedon) who'd already demonstrated a real passion and understanding of what makes good superhero stories tick. Hence, you shouldn't put too much weight into last year's reports that Henry Cavill's Superman will absolutely not be incorporated into the Justice League movie, or how the Batman series will without a doubt break narrative continuity with Nolan's films, after TDKR (among other outdated reports).
Furthermore, the news that an adaptation of the Suicide Squad comic book is in the works likewise points to Warner Bros./DC taking a decidedly different approach to their superhero movie universe than the one taken by Marvel. Suicide Squad (in its more recent comic incarnation) revolves around a team of incarcerated supervillains who take on dangerous black ops missions for the U.S. government in exchange for reduced prison terms. The players in that series contrast vividly with both the current and upcoming roster of Marvel characters (Ant-Man, Black Panther, Doctor Strange) - who are (by comparison) more straight-forward good guys armed with awesome powers and abilities.
In summary: Marvel has made its move, and Warner Bros./DC is rushing like mad to retaliate (or something like that). The studio(s) aren't expected to make any public announcements about their plans until Dark Knight Rises opens in theaters next month. In the meantime, we here at Screen Rant will be sure to continue keeping you up-to-date on all rumors and reports that offer a sneak peek at the DC strategy.
What do you think of the approach being taken by Warner Bros./DC so far? How much do you suspect the DC movies will integrate elements of the "New 52" comics reboot? Sound off in the comments section.

SPOKANE, Wash. -- Nick Kaylor booted a 36-yard field goal as time expired to give visiting Pacific Lutheran a dramatic 20-17 win over Whitworth in a Northwest Conference football game on Saturday afternoon at the Pine Bowl.
The Pirates (1-4 overall, 0-1 NWC) appeared to have sent the game to overtime when Bryan Peterson connected on a 19-yard touchdown pass to Aaron Blaska with 55 seconds left that tied the game 17-17. But a long kick off return and a late unsportsmanlike conduct call against the Pirates helped move the ball to the Whitworth 19-yard line with four seconds left, setting up Kaylor's heroic kick.
PLU (3-1, 2-0 NWC) outgained Whitworth 289-256 as both defenses made it hard for the offenses to sustain any momentum.
The Pirates got on the scoreboard first when Drew Goranson kicked a 21-yard field goal with 34 seconds to play in the first quarter. But that was a victory for the Lute defenders. Whitworth's Cailen Thomason intercepted PLU QB Zack Halverson and returned the ball 27 yards to the Lute five yard line before the PLU defense forced the field goal.
PLU then went 87 yards on their only sustained drive of the game to score its first touchdown. Running back Brandon James got the Lutes out of deep in their own territory with a 24 yard run, then he ended the drive with a five-yard carry for the touchdown.
Whitworth's Ronnie Thomas fumbled the ensuing kickoff and PLU took advantage when Halverson connected with Daniel Herr for a six yard touchdown pass three plays later, giving the Lutes a 14-3 lead.
Thomas atoned for the mistake late in the first half when he completed a 38-yard drive that was set up when Whitworth recovered a fumble as Halverson tried to pitch to James on an option play on third down. Peterson connected with Derek Martin on a 22-yard pass completion and then Thomas danced through several defenders for an 11-yard score that pulled the Pirates within 14-10 just before halftime.
Taylor Angevine set up PLU for a short scoring march to start the second half with a 44 yard kickoff return to the Whitworth 36 yard line. The Pirate defense came up big, holding PLU inside the ten and forcing Kaylor to kick a 24 yard field goal that gave the Lutes a seven point lead.
Despite an average starting field position on the Whitworth 42 yard line in the third quarter, PLU could not add to its advantage. Thomason came up with his second interception of the game at the Whitworth 23 to stop the Lutes' best chance to extend their lead.
Whitworth looked like it would tie the game early in the fourth quarter after driving 70 yards and gaining first down on the PLU ten yard line. But three plays later it was fourth down at the Lutes' three and Jordan Patterson forced Whitworth QB Peterson into a wild throw through the endzone.
PLU had a chance to ice the game after Steven McDonald recovered Peterson's fumble at the Pirates' 48 yard line with 7:01 to play. But this time it was the Whitworth defense that held on fourth down at the 33 yard line when Thomason broke up a pass intended for Alex McDiarmid.
Peterson was sacked on Whitworth's next play, but then he completed 6 of 7 passes for 67 yards to lead the Pirates to a game-tying score with 55 seconds to play.
Angevine came up big for PLU again as he returned the ensuing kick off 39 yards to the PLU 45 yard line. On third down Halverson completed a 24-yard pass to McDiarmid at the Whitworth 28. Two plays and a false start later the Lutes had moved back to the 33 when Paul Miller broke up a pass attempt and appeared to force a fourth down. But a flag came in after the play against the Pirates for unsportsmanlike conduct. That allowed the Lutes to move to Whitworth's 18 yard line, giving Kaylor a chance at his winning kick with four seconds to play.
Peterson completed 20 of 27 passes for 204 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions to lead the Whitworth offense. Austin Ehlo caught four passes for 42 yards, while three other Pirates made three grabs, including Martin and Kekoa Turbeville, who made the first three receptions of his career. Thomas finished with 74 yards on 15 carries running the ball.
Halverson completed 21 of 36 passes for 159 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions for PLU. Four Lutes caught four passes each, including McDiarmid and Dalton Ritchey. James finished with 82 yards rushing on 15 carries.
Paul Miller led Whitworth's defense with nine tackles, while Ryan Loutsis came back from an ankle injury with eight tackles, including two for loss. Thomason's two interceptions now give him four for the season.
Adam Schwander and Sean McFadden each had seven tackles to lead the Lutes. Erik Magnussen had four stops and was in on two of PLU's six sacks in the game.
Whitworth will have to pick itself up from Saturday's heartbreak quickly as the Pirates have to travel to Portland to take on unbeaten Lewis & Clark next Saturday. PLU, meanwhile, will go out-of-conference for a game at Menlo.

Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands braced for torrential rains on Thursday as Tropical Storm Isaac churned waves as high as 10 feet (3 meters) in the Caribbean and threatened to become a hurricane that could take a shot at Florida just as Republicans gather for their national convention.
Some flooding was reported in eastern and southern regions of Puerto Rico as the storm approached.
U.S. forecasters said Isaac will likely turn into a Category 1 hurricane by Friday as it nears the Dominican Republic and Haiti. It was expected to weaken a little while heading over their island and Cuba, then possibly move on toward Florida as a hurricane by Monday.
Isaac was centered 225 miles (360) kilometers south-southeast of Puerto Rico Thursday morning, with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph). It was moving west at 13 mph (21 kph) according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.
The system has slowed down, and as a result, the island will see more rain, said Ernesto Morales, forecaster with the National Weather Service in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
"This is not the moment to become complacent," he said.
The U.S. territory has opened 428 shelters, and 50 people have taken refuge, said Gov. Luis Fortuno. Some 4,000 people were without power and more than 3,000 without water.
Schools and government offices remained closed Thursday, but the governor said it was safe for people to go to work if they needed to. However, he warned everyone to stay away from beaches and swollen rivers.
"It's not the day to participate in recreational activities in these areas," Fortuno said.
While Isaac itself has caused on reported injuries or deaths, police in Puerto Rico say a 75-year-old woman died near the capital of San Juan on Wednesday when she fell off a second-floor balcony while filling a drum with water in preparation for the storm.
Puerto Rico's main international airport remained open, but Cape Air and American Eagle cancelled all their flights Thursday, Fortuno said. Ferry service to the tourist islands of Vieques and Culebra also was temporarily suspended.
In Vieques, one of the owners of Bananas Guesthouse said he had received a call from his brother in Florida, who suggested he tell reporters "there are mudslides and cows flying through the air. But in fact, there's a breeze going by," Glenn Curry said. "We've had a little bit of rain. Nothing much has happened so far...Overnight it didn't even blow enough to wake me up."
In the U.S. Virgin Islands town of Christiansted, streets lined with historic buildings of Danish architecture, were largely deserted. All but a small handful of businesses and government offices were closed. Hurricane shutters covered the entrances to most buildings and sandbags were stacked in anticipation of potential floods and storm surge.
Two shelters were open on the island, and 10 people were housed overnight, according to Elton Lewis, director of the Virgin Islands Territorial Emergency Management Agency.
The storm already forced military authorities at the U.S. base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to cancel pretrial hearings for five prisoners charged in the Sept. 11 attacks. They also planned to evacuate about 200 people, including legal teams and relatives of Sept. 11 victims.
Isaac also posed a threat to next week's Republican National Convention in Tampa, where officials said they were ready to take emergency measures even as 70,000 delegates, journalists and protesters descend on the city.
"Public safety will always trump politics," Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn said. "And so my job, and our job, if we move into that mode, is to make sure we get people out of harm's way."
In Dominica, the government said no damage or injuries were reported after Isaac passed through late Wednesday. The airport and seaports have reopened and things are back to normal, said Benoit Bardouille, CEO of the island's Air & Seaport Authority.
However, Disaster Coordinator Don Coriette warned that heavy rains would persist through Friday.
"Dominica has been spared the full brunt of Tropical Storm Isaac," he said. "We want to thank the almighty God for that."

Original Trinity Hymnal, #428
Lord, I believe; thy pow'r I own,
Thy Word I would obey;
I wander comfortless and lone
When from thy truth I stray.
Lord, I believe; but gloomy fears
Sometimes bedim my sight;
I look to thee with pray'rs and tears,
And cry for strength and light.
Lord, I believe; but thou dost know
My faith is cold and weak;
Pity my frailty and bestow
The confidence I seek.
Yes, I believe; and only thou
Canst give my soul relief:
Lord, to thy truth my spirit bow;
Help thou mine unbelief.

(CNN) - Measuring the nation's gay population has always been tricky. Those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender are still subject to social stigma, and many are not comfortable answering questions about their identity.
But in the largest survey of its kind conducted by Gallup, 3.4% of all Americans identified themselves as part of the LGBT community.
Gallup interviewed 120,000 Americans and found that the highest percentages of LGBT identification occurred among non-white, younger and less educated Americans.
Demographer Gary Gates said the survey sheds light on the diversity and complexity of the LGBT community.
"They offer an unprecedented resource for informing LGBT-related debates like those regarding marriage, parenting and workplace discrimination with much-needed facts rather than stereotype or anecdote," said Gates, a scholar with the UCLA School of Law's Williams Institute, which researches sexual orientation and gender identity issues.
The survey differs from the 2010 census, which for the first time measured sexual orientation. But the census counted same-sex partners and same-sex spouses - 516,396 households.
Of note in the latest Gallup survey, released Thursday, is the fact that non-whites are more likely to identify themselves as LGBT than whites, which challenges common belief that large numbers of the community are white, male and wealthy.
The Gallup poll showed that 4.6% of African-Americans identify as LGBT along with 4% of Latinos and 4.3% of Asian-Americans. Only 3.2% of white Americans say they are LGBT.
More women - 3.6% - identified as LGBT than men - 3.3%. That means 53% of the LGBT community are women.
And, perhaps not surprisingly, younger adults between the ages of 18 and 29 were more than three times as likely as seniors 65 and older to identify as LGBT - 6.4% of younger Americans said they were LGBT versus 1.9% of older people.
The new survey showed LGBT identification is highest among Americans with the lowest levels of education. Of those with a high school education or less, 3.5% identify as LGBT compared with 2.8% of those with a college degree and 3.2% of those with post-graduate education. LGBT identification is highest among those with some college education but not a college degree, at 4.0%.
How will America's LGBT population affect the presidential election?
Gallup found that 44% of LGBT Americans identify as Democratic; 43% as independent; and only 13% as Republican. That compares to 32% of non-LGBT Americans who identify as Democratic, 39% as independent, and 30% as Republican. The respective numbers in the non-LGBT community are 32% Democratic, 39% independent and 30% Republican.
"Given the strong Democratic tilt of the LGBT population, it is not surprising that registered voter preferences of LGBT Americans tilt strongly - but not monolithically - toward Barack Obama," the survey said. "Specifically, 71% of LGBT Americans who are registered voters support Obama, while 22% support Mitt Romney."
Is it just me, or does this article completely ignore the fact that an entire generation of gays was decimated by AIDS?
It was a start.
I'm a Man, and a Lesbian, and Proud of it!
I really don't understand the comments of people who are basically saying, "It's only 3.4% of the population, why are we catering to their needs?" By that logic, I guess that we shouldn't try to respect the rights of individuals with autism or schizophrenia – both around 1% of the population. Seems ridiculous to me!
Why doesn't anyone care about atheists? There are a HECK of a lot more of us out there than LGBT. And probably a lot of LGBT are atheists too....
Being an atheist stays in the closet a lot more than one's LGBT status...
Good point. As an atheist I know that we are one of the few groups in America that is safe to openly spew hatred about. It is becoming taboo in this country, as it should be, to insult gays. We need to make it known that insulting people who do not subscribe to any particular religion is just as unacceptable.
Not really. Gallup polls show that even though 20% of Americans are irreligious, only 4%-6% are atheists. Irreligious includes Agnostics, Atheists, Deists, Pantheists, Apatheists, Universalists, and even Theists who don't prescribe to any religion in particular.
3.4% does not even come close to 1 in 3 or 33% like the link states, someone needs to back to primary school!!! MAJOR MATH FAIL!!! ROFL!!!!!!
I agree with the math goof, but it's no less than your poor print-communication.
This is VERY similar to the numbers posted at the college I attended in the 80's – 3 in 10 students are LGBT – so if you look around at 10 people, three are LGBT.
Going to frat parties, it didn't appear that way at all...
Would this mean that 96.6 % is straight?
I'm sure someone has already pointed this out but 3.4% doesn't equal 1 in 3 americans like the link to this article states.....basic math FAIL.
Thanks Ryan. I literally just asked about this, thinking 1 in 3 means 33%.
Seek the Trinity first, then self control.
Interesting. What about the Trinity is NOT gay. I'm created in God's image ... no different than an African, or Asian person. I didn't come out being gay, I was born gay. This whole stupid argument is arianism guised as pseudo-Christianity. The Messiah said WORD BOO about being gay, but did say we no longer live under the LAW, but live by grace. And, BTW, what do you think Paul's 'thorn in the flesh' might have been. Direct your nose to study Roman military tactics. Many FRONT LINE roman soldiers were gay - and they would NOT let their partner be killed. Hmm.... and Paul was a soldier...and prayed about something that wouldn't change ... and openly was the only one who talked about the issue of 'affeminism.' Physician heal thyself.
"Of note in the latest Gallup survey, released Thursday, is the fact that non-whites are more likely to identify themselves as LGBT than whites, which challenges common belief that large numbers of the community are white, male and wealthy."
+++++ This incredible display of mathematical imbecility is why colleges should require journalism majors to take a rigorous course in statistics. The article says 4.6% to 4% of non-White groups (call it a 4.3% average) are LGBT while only 3.2% of Whites are. Since 66% of Americans are non-Hispanic while that means roughly 100% x 66*3.2/(66*3.2+34*4.3) = 59% of LGBT's are White. So it SUPPORTS, does NOT "challenge" that most LGBTs are White.
Was I the only one to notice the word 'identify'? Simply because only 3.4% of the population 'identifies' as being LGBT does not mean there are others who have gay tendencies but don't want to publicly admit it. If you took a survey of how many people identified as being racist, I'm sure the numbers would be far less than the actual amount of people who ARE racist. (Note the word change there from identify to are.) So, to say that the younger population has been influenced into being gay based on these numbers or that it is an accurate estimate of the gay population is completely false. There are thousands of people out there who are too scared (and from a lot of the comments on here, they have good reason to be) to admit they are gay or grew up in a time where you got married and hope it fixed you. I personally think the number is somewhere between 5% to 7%. There is a whole other set of people out there who belong in this survey because they didn't 'identify' as being part of the LGBT community. There are plenty of people on here who wouldn't identify as being ignorant, though they would belong in that category, too.
What ever happened to the 10%? Itwas a big lie meant to scare the politicians. Well, it worked. So now gays are the preferred class, especially over white straight males, who are now at the bottom of the heap.
Let's find a cure a cure for cancer by diverting money and attention from aids, now that its clear the special interest group that got all that money and attention for aids research, is only about 1/3rd the size it was presented as.
So if ONLY 3.4% of Americans are LGBT; YET THERE IS SO MUCH MEDIA COVERAGE YOU THINK THE LGBT ARE THE MAJORITY! IT'S A SHAME THAT EVEN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS ALL LGBT! AND ABORTION!
1) All caps is for children.
2) Why on god's green earth would you join the republican party just on the account of the democrats vigorously defending gay rights and abortion rights? Is it because a couple of written verses from the invisible man in the sky told you so?
sorry but is the republicans that have made gays and abortions into THE issues to rally against...many GOP voters will be voting on just these 2 issues...oh and the fact that obama is black
What ever!!
Yeah, they sure to identify at LGBT, I like to identify at Chinese food restaurants and churches, identifying at them is fun.
Another yawner article.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn. This useful comment provided to you by eternian.tk. Where people go to read how awful atheists are.
Why are we letting less than 5% of our population have such a impact on our laws and culture?
Because, like the article says, there is still stigma on LGBT, so the actual percentage is more like 99%.
Its called equality. Look it up.
not to mention this is a gallup poll which means inaccurate
I agree. Why do we let evangelical christians, a tiny minority in this country, dictate the liberties, rights and resonsibilities for all Americans?
Thirty-six percent of Latinos identify their race as white, according to the Pew Hispanic survey. Remember, Hispanic/Latino is an ethnicity, not a race.
I'm all for equality. Everyone is supposed to be equal, but what most minorities want is equal and also special.
Special how, exactly?
Exactly krehator.
This is soooo inaccurate. I've slept with enough married "straight" men to know otherwise
Well you must do a lot of sleeping around because 3.4% of our current population is 10.7 million people. I think that's probably a pretty accurate representation of the LBGT community.
"120,000 Americans and found that the highest percentages of LGBT identification occurred among non-white, younger and less educated Americans."
I am not sure this paints a positive light on this community
Why? Younger and less educated Americans have a lot lees to lose by admitting their orientation. They are less likely to lose agood job or even their family.
As the stigma falls away, those numbers will completely change.
forgive me for being so dumb, but what does LGBT sant for?
It is clarified in the article's first paragraph.
so if their taking over does this mean int he future all babies will be surrogate babies? or will their be breeders?
CORRECTED: "So if they're taking over, will all babies born in the future be surrogate babies? Or will there be breeders?".... I'm more worried about the alarming percentage of the population who struggle through life without an education....
Absolutely. Learn to write before making comments.
We were told for years that 10% of the population is gay. And the politicians trembled. What happened to the 6.6%? Did they never exist and, therefore, the political foundation for the movement was a lie, or did they exist and are no longer gay. Or is this just one more piece of crappy research?
Are you saying that you've never heard of a popularly bandied about statistic that is both false and somewhat mysterious as to its origin? Or are you saying that you're incapable of rational thought? Or are you just a disingenuous troll that thinks that attacking straw men some how makes your larger point more valid?
I am a young Mexican practicing Catholic. I don't hate gay people, I am very close to a gay person and he is a good guy. But I don't think gay marriage should be legal, because I think the family is the basic social unit and a family is one man and one woman. Remember, outlawing certain groups from marrying isn't unprecedented. Siblings or cousins can't marry, because it is harmful to society. Nor can a man marry multiple women or vice versa. So I don't hate, I just think. Please don't respond hatefully because I am leaving now.
Good post Juan.
Did you read the article? The true numbers are above the 6% range, as evidenced by the fact that young folks are a lot less likely to be closeted than the older crowd.
And even in the younger groups, there will STILL be a significant percentage afraid or unwilling to out themselves in a poll, so the actual numbers would be a bit higher again.
Most people ( like my self) keep my orientation to myself. Its none of anyones business unless I feel the need to tell someone and feel comfortable that they won't judge me based on how I was born. The 10% is an estimate but its pretty accurate and you will see that in the decades to come these numbers will increase because society will become more accepting of our difference. There are a lot of us already out there....... we just choose not to tell people.
I find this article and the study hard to believe. I know gay. It may not be the Kinsey 10% but I'm confident it's in the 7% range that lines up with the young identifying themselves as LGBT. It would be obvious that the poor, young, uneducated and minority would have nothing to loose admitting to be part of a stygmatized minority. If the rich, white, old, educated gays who have something to loose stood up these stats would be different.
It's 3.4 %, deal with it. That's what happens when you hold on to pre-conceived notions like they're fact, assumptions aren't your friend. This happens all the time, your shock is nothing new.

The B.east
Make your way down Lygon St, way past anyone trying to throw spaghetti down your throat (no guarantees though, there are plenty of kooks around this neck of the woods), and you'll find yourself in an eclectic pocket of Brunswick East. Now, you'd never really consider that end of town to be a culinary paradise, but with all the new-age retro-chic kids running free around these parts, there are more and more worthwhile eateries popping up. B.east is the latest venue to open its doors to "said kids" with open arms, offering a multitude of burgers, beers and bands to leave the locals more than satisfied. Run by the same guys who brought you the Section 8 Container Bar, B.east is aiming to stand out by excelling in the art of burgers. What they want to do says venue manager Guy Daley, is "to make simple, awesome burgers in-house…" and "to do one thing but do it really well". Thats why you'll notice that the most part of the menu is taken up by their in-house made burgers (even though the pork shoulder sandwich sounds unbelievable). Whether you order a burger or an icecream sundae, you'll most likely be hiding from Melbourne's bitch-ass weather and sitting in a low-lit open space, with street art adorning the walls and plenty of chilli sauces only an arms length away to fry your face off. In keeping with the Burger Adventure spirit we strolled up to the bar and ordered a Sexy B.east Burger that came on brioche bun with 2 beef patties (brisket, rump & chuck mix made on site), oozing double cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato and a jalapeno spiced mayonnaise. We coupled this with a serve of B.east Triple Cooked Chips with chilli sauce and cheese for and added $9.

It's a good idea, but I'm afraid that if I wore a great big circle on my body, I would look fat. It's kind of a fashion no-no.
...It's what you WILL find...you WILL find...
the new and improved silver sharpies work wonderfully on black tshirts, backgrounds, whatever. Rest assured, your black thsirts can now be signed beautifully!!
~Bathe In A Turning Tide~
Sounds like the boys had an excellent plan with the Sharpies. I needn't worry obviously. How did the sales go at the sales table? More importantly, please do post a starter on the Vegas experience, as the non attendees would love to hear a bit.
I've been lurking...
What's the latest on T-Shirts? Now that the boys aren't touring as much, the T-Shirt sales actually could consolidate and improve considering they can sell with FixxStixx (which should be in higher demand now that there's such variety).
Anyone else see the logic here? I think this is a good time to revamp T-Shirt designs, stock up, and sell via the website/mail order since the stock will be in one place for a while.

EXCLUSIVE: UK distributor plans saturation release for Hector and the Search for Happiness, also buys Magic Magic [pictured].
Koch Media is bolstering its UK release schedule with Simon Pegg comedy Hector and the Search for Happiness and Directors' Fortnight thriller Magic Magic.
UK newcomer Koch is planning a 2014 saturation release for Hector, which marks the company's first pre-buy for the UK.
Currently shooting in London, Canada, South Africa and Shanghai until late June, Pegg stars alongside Christopher Plummer, Toni Collette, Jean Reno and Stellan Skarsgard in the story of an eccentric London psychiatrist, embark on a global quest to find out whether happiness really exists.
The deal was done with the film's producers.
Peter Chelsom directs, producers are Egoli Tossell Film and Screen Siren Pictures. Head Gear Films is a majority financier. Bankside handles international sales on the project, which was formerly with The Solution. UTA represents North American rights.
Also new to Koch's slate is Sebastian Silva's Sundance and Directors' Fortnight entry Magic Magic in which a shy young girl, played by Juno Temple, mentally unravels during a holiday in a remote part of Chile.
Michael Cera and Emily Browning co-star in the feature, which is due for a wide theatrical release in August 2013.
Industry are keeping a keen eye on Koch's progress as the company aims to establish itself in the UK and fill some of the gaps left by Momentum and Revolver's exits form the market.
The outfit's 2013 slate includes comedy Thanks For Sharing, comedy-drama Stuck In Love and thriller The Frozen Ground. Recent releases include Red Dawn and Arbitrage.
Craig McNicol, Koch Media's managing director of Northern Europe, told Screen: "The acquisition of Hector and the Search for Happiness and Magic Magic is a fantastic coup for us. We are increasingly looking to secure films at pre-production level and earlier, so are excited by the proposition that Hector and the Search for Happiness offers. Like Hector, our other new acquisition Magic Magic has a fantastic cast and its selection for Cannes' Directors' Fortnight proves that we have a film of exceptional quality. We look forward to introducing both films to a UK audience."
