BALTIMORE (WJZ) — It's the heart of Baltimore's tourism industry, but the Inner Harbor turned into a nightmare for a visiting family of 10 earlier this month.
Out of nowhere, they were swarmed and beaten by a large number of teenagers.
While the family that was attacked does not want to be identified, they do want their story to be heard. They told their story to WJZ off-camera.
"They swarmed us," said Stacey. "They hit my husband in the head. They knocked him out… and then it was just complete bedlam."
It happened on the day of the Baltimore Marathon, Oct. 21. The event brought a big crowd to the harbor that night. The 10 family members, from grandparents to grandchildren, were walking by the H&M store when they were overwhelmed.
"And they punched my nephew in the face and knocked him to the floor," Stacey said. "My sister went to protect her son, and they were kicking her. I was knelling with my husband screaming 'Somebody help us, why is nobody helping us?'"
Baltimore City police spokesman T.J. Smith says groups of teens have been a problem in the city.
"It's always groups of them," he said. "Someone in that group starts it, and that's what we saw in this situation."
In March, a group followed a man downtown, hurling insults, which quickly escalated into a physical assault, and a rapid scattering by the attackers. The same technique used last week when two bicyclists were robbed and beaten by a group.
"The disrespect from some of these juveniles is just absolutely unbelievable and stunning," Smith said. "And it should be to society."
"Maybe if there'd been police on foot, those people would never have been congregating there, looking for a fight, you know looking to hit somebody," said another victim, Sal.
"Well we did have cops all over the place, but again they probably got there relatively quickly, but we can't have cops on every corner in every single block of the city," according to Smith.
While police are reviewing surveillance video of the attack, the victims can't stop replaying it in their minds.
"After this, I can't sleep at night, seeing what happened over and over again in my head," Stacey said. "Seeing my family attacked."
Two members of the family suffered concussions. Others came away with scrapes and bruises, and a vow never return to the Inner Harbor.
As yet, police have no suspects in the attack. Because the group appears to have been made up of juveniles, if they are found they cannot be identified.

But at least the statues are gone.
One positive step at a time!
yes and the most POSITIVE one will be when you Gorillas are returned back to the CONGO !!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
So if the cops cant be everywhere at every minute then why are law abiding citizens not allowed to protect themselves with a firearm? When you go into Baltimore you are pretty much on your own. My advise…..STAY OUT!!
I was last in Baltimore years ago…it was a dangerous sheithole even then…Good place to stay away from.
If you watch closely at the attitude of Balto Police spox TJ Smith you get a sense that he takes delight in the havoc being wreaked upon unsuspecting (stupid) white people on a regular basis.
"Teens". Always those damn teens.
Probably Amish.
Not Amish…not in Baltimore. Baltimore is over run with that violent "Sons of Norway" crowd.
The smell of pickeld herring hanging in the air is the give away…
"Teens" has become a code-word for feral humans of a certain racial group, usually born to welfare mammas to maximize their welfare check and then set loose in the streets. Requiring fixed birth control for welfare recipients would resolve most of these problems as the current crop ages out or ends up in prison.
They're not on welfare anymore- it's social security. They receive it, and their kids get checks for bogus or real "learning disability" or "speech impediment". The pro-active policing ended in Baltimore and this is what results. These cities are test cities- YOURS is next. More 3rd world illiterates with 7th century cultures will also be imported. This is the UN's dream! For all of us to be continually terrorized, impoverished, and disgusted.
Baltimore. If I never have to go there again it will just be fine with me.
"As yet, police have no suspects in the attack. Because the group appears to have been made up of juveniles, if they are found they cannot be identified."
Exactly … and part of the problem. It's time we stop coddling creeps like these, and make their faces part of a billboard – and make their families responsible, as well, for having created, and contributed toward, their depraved get.
So… are they saying 'they all look alike?'
My son was attacked in the same fashion as a Mount Royal Middle school student. A group of 10-15 High school kids attacked him; knocked him unconscious, gave him a concussion, skull fracture, broken nose and left him for dead on Park ave three blocks from his school. Although he puts on a brave face he has dropped clues that he is afraid to travel alone and fears he will be attacked again; thus the snide and cheeky remarks are insulting, "such as at least the statues are gone". I'm a patriot and a history lover; the Statues were illegally removed and that matter will be resolved. My son's attackers are still unknown although we know what school they came from. I support and fight for the 2nd amendment with the exclusion of automatic weapons but what good would it do for him as a minor? By the way, had the juveniles been caught they wouldn't be sufficiently prosecuted unless charged as adults. The kids are out of control cause the have no legal consequences, no family structure, nor any personal hopes for the future. These young people are in our midst and we need infrastructure and stronger families not smart ass comments.
The solution is simple: we need to reinstate segregation.
I hope your son is receiving all the psychological and spiritual help he needs. He almost certainly is suffering PTSD from such a brutal attack. I hope too that you are getting the support you need, what happened is awful for the whole family.
You're right. The voters and media need to take this seriously. They should report on this every night until the perpetrators are in jail. No money for road repairs or teacher pay raises until after these problems are resolved. No pay raises for police until the problem is resolved. Worse still, instead of solving these problems, we fret about the Freddy Gray case…. What's more important, attempted murder or "offensive language?"
Feral is the word you're looking for.
If the teenagers can't be charged, charge their parents. Fines and jail time.
I believe the "smart ass" commenter, was only pointing out the foolishness and absurdity of the undue obsession over statues which were harming no one, when there are more pressing issues
– like the actual violation of civil rights in these unprovoked beatings (and knock-out "game" crimes).
Sorry for the pain your nephew and family are enduring. You aren't going to like this either, but the solution is that these type of attacks can only be baiting and hunting these mobs. A mob attack is a deadly attack. Therefore deadly force is justified in repelling it. Concealed carry shooters need to dress down to a non-threatening profile, maybe a street scavenger or other character that tends to loiter. Then find and shadow the mobs, pretending to look thru trash or whatever, and wait for one to attack an innocent. Then start the video on your phone and state your suspicion of an impending or ongoing attack, say you have to stop the attack on tape, then close in and fire double taps into one or two of the attackers. Do not shoot retreaters. Warn off any onlookers who might attack you, and clarify who the victim group is. Keep the group together and command everyone else to stay back. Call 911 with a second phone if you have one so you can keep the camera rolling. Ask the victims to start videotaping before you call. With camera rolling ask the victims if they are ok. No matter what they say, never admit any doubt in your mind that the victims were under deadly attack due to more than one hitting a single victim. It is the superior numbers that make the attack potentially deadly, do not deviate from this belief. Keep the 911 dispatcher on the phone and obey his/her commands about how to not spook the arriving cops. Likely you will be told to re-holster your weapon and keep both hands visible and wave to cops as they arrive. They will likely make you lay down and they will disarm and arrest you. You will be exonerated if you don't shoot one in the back. You risk a manslaughter charge even if you do everything right, so being a hero has risks. If you are a sentinel by nature, a protector, and believe mob violence needs to be deterred by citizens as well as cops, consider this mob hunting tactic, and we will salute you as a hero if you can carry it off successfully. We need heroes to combat the rise of government-bred fatherless dangerous ferals.
Yes, go and see the sights…prepared for action. A clandestine patrol. But hey, you just happen to be walking in one of these danger zones for legal purposes, and you are legally armed for self defense or defense of innocent others. (Depart states where this type of thing is illegal, as they are de facto uninhabitable.) And when something like this mob attack goes down, and you just happen to be nearby, and you just happen to be legally armed and morally-legally empowered to defend the innocent: lower the boom. The "knockout game" is no game, and the police CANNOT stop it. So we have to stop it.
If you, or an innocent other person, have a right to be where you are, and you face the reasonable threat of death or grievous bodily harm at the hands of violent attackers, you have the right to defend yourself and innocent others with deadly force. You shoot to stop the threat. If they run or surrender, don't shoot. If they continue the attack or maneuver on you, keep shooting.
2 on 1, 3 on 1, 10 on 1: these situations are legally (and morally) considered to place the outnumbered, innocent person in what a reasonable person would consider "danger of death or grievous bodily harm." Same thing when a young, strong attacker assaults an older, weaker person; a practiced fighter or martial arts-trained person goes against someone not similarly prepared; a man assaults a woman; attacker(s) have knocked somebody down or out by surprise; physically fit attacker assaults a guy on crutches; etc.
Onviously, check your local laws, etc. But the fact remains: bands of violent attackers, aka "teens," roam our cities ready to pounce on the innocent and pound the he!! out of them, rob them, take selfies with those knocked down and out, steal what they want, humiliate however and whomever they want, and go on their merry way. And yes, only a blind man could miss the extremely strong racial correlation that is part of this new reality: it is black people wreaking casual "vengeance" on anybody and everybody else. (In fairness, one must note that they do it to other black people, too, but not for the same reasons.)
These attackers REVEL in the misery and helplessness of their victims, gloat that whites and Asians fear blacks, etc. So, don't hide, and don't cower. Go to places you want to go, using some sort of judgment of course, and arm and prepare accordingly. Then, stand your ground. Otherwise, this situation merely worsens. I defy anybody to claim otherwise, as the evidence is overwhelming for those who will look at it. Of course the MSM hides the racial angle completely; they highlight that only when whites victimize blacks. Yes, that was the problem in 1957. The opposite is the problem in 2017. Doubt me? Google "Colin Flaherty."
I know a lot of wonderful black people, and interact with them accordingly. I also know a lot who are liable to do things such as we're discussing here, and I guard against them accordingly. Add in radical Islamic terrorists, workplace violence cases, mass killers, and spurned lovers, and there are PLENTY of reasons to take the approach I advocate.
Sheep graze peacefully and bother nobody. That does not, however, protect them from coyotes, wolves, cougars, and wildcats. For that, we need goats, sheepdogs, and shepherds. Time to step up, men of America. Women of America, time to protect you and yours.
Were your son's attackers the KKK? Maybe neo-Nazis? Because the media is telling us hate crimes are on the rise.
How's that for snark? Look, I'm glad you call yourself a patriot, and frankly borderline amazed that, as a black woman, you disapprove of the removal of those statues. (But as you know, they've just begun on that front).
That said, NORMAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD IT. And you sound like one of us.
Best wishes for your son. Put him in MMA. Know who your friends are. Get out of that area if you can. Fight for your right to be armed.
And never, ever vote Democrat.
Why are the news anchors/ reporters reporting on this like it's a joke? This is a serious situation. Everyone seems to be shrugging their shoulders like this behavior is acceptable and expected. We are shocked and complaining about "privileged" kids choice in Halloween costumes, what about these kids who feel they are entitled to harm people??
And they still can't bring themselves to point out that this type of violence is 99.999% the responsibility of BLACKS.
Amish kids?
Good observation, because they were dressed in black.
See this is what happens when you can't watch TV and movies.
Keep it Classy Charm CIty
I'm sure they didn't attack them because they were white (SARCASM)
"Well we did have cops all over the place, but again they probably got there relatively quickly, but we can't have cops on every corner in every single block of the city," according to Smith.
Which is one reason we have the 2nd amendment. Apparently Baltimore does not have concealed carry. I wonder how quickly the situation would resolve itself it it did?
There are animals living amongst us. You know who they are. Arm yourself.
Concealed weapon permits will bring an end to the fools that attack in packs. Instead Balto is a place where the young thugs have the free run of the streets. Listening to WBAL radio and there is a Jewish man living in Pikesville talking about the carjackings and attacks on Jewish people going to synagogue. Carjacking is a BIG problem in the Baltimore area but we don't hear much about it.
The Inner Harbor can be a very nice area for tourists, dining and museums. The thugs are ruining it. The mayor who is usually outspoken on political issues should condemn this attack as tourism is essential to Baltimore's economy.
Future NFLers
Baltimore – Just another Democrat controlled liberal cesspool
When spotting gr0ids on the street, keep your eyes on them and maintain a safe distance.
If the gr0ids are approaching you, keep your hand on your gun and evade the area if possible.
If the gr0ids are within 25 feet of you, SHOOT TO KILL!
This is why we moved out of that state. No jobs unless you worked for the government; the state is a one party state – democrat – and the crime was getting bad. Whites were not welcome there
What's the common thread with attacks like this?
Thank goodness the family dutifully submitted to the beating and did not try to defend themselves with guns… if would have just made them even angrier and somebody might have really been hurt.
If the family would have defended themselves and hurt any of those youthful teens, I bet the family would brought up on criminal charges for injuring the poor youth and committing a racially motivated crime. Then the family would have been summoned to appear in civil court and ordered to pay "restitution" to the poor little boy.
We should have picked our own cotton.
Maybe next time they'll visit a civilized city!! If you want to visit Baltimore, watch "The Wire" instead, it's safer.
And that's why I won't set foot in these leftist "Utopias." They don't reciprocate on concealed weapon permits and at the same time acknowledge the police can't protect you. What could possibly go wrong with that?
Lets me guess that Baltimore does not allow law abiding citizens to carry concealed weapons for self defense.
Why would ANYONE put up with this nonsense? The ridiculous mayor & city administrators sure have a handle on the situation….."lets remove those 100 year old statues that honor old Southern war heros…..yeah,…that'll take care of everything!" I wouldn't go to Baltimore-Inner Harbor- for ANYTHING!
And until the city leader & laws (concealed carry) are changed, I suggest you do the same. Why put yourself & family in the way of "life changing" potential harm?
Google "black flash mobs". This has been going on for many, many years. The thugs are rarely arrested, and never prosecuted. Tell us again how 'the system" is unfair to blacks.
You can bet if this were gangs of whites doing hate crimes on black there would be hundreds of feds down there within hours to round them up.
Democrats are trying to destroy the U.S with hate and are doing a good job of it.
Face it,we are at the start of a race war .Roaming gangs of young blacks,male and female,are attacking whites brutally .
If a white uses a gun owned legally to protect oneself from these gangs there would be an outrage leading to violent looting and destruction.
These black thugs a a product of our failed welfare system and the rhetoric from the so called black leaders
SUPER PREDATORS. Annihilate them.
It's too often that we hear of black teen flash mobs hurting people and causing destruction. Not too long ago, there was a rash of random punching of strangers. Something has got to be done to steer black youth in the right direction or this kind of thing will only perpetuate stereotypes and cement racial beliefs.
The "right direction" is southeastward toward Africa. Unless they don't want to go, in which case it should be downward toward hell.
Baltimore……anyone, anyone, anyone….care to comment on which race the large number of teenagers that were the attackers????? If there were ever a reason to carry a concealed weapon; this is one of the reasons!
When Black mobs attack a White family they are called "Teens".
How funny!! "Groups of teens".
Hmmm, seems that a Glock could have put a happier ending on this one.
Couldn't be racially motivated attack could it?
One more reason to be armed with a gun with a large capacity magazine. But sadly MD is a pro-crime state where it is next to impossible for the law abiding to carry a gun.
Ni66s being ni66s……
This is why i carry and why i will never live in a place i cant carry.. in liberal cities you are defenseless…
So when foreigners come here to see our country, and they are told "you probably shouldn't go to Baltimore," and they ask the reason why, what are they told? There are dangerous teens? Is every no-go zone in this country run by teens?
If the family that was attacked was black and the group of attacking teens was white, this article would have mentioned race and it would be national news plastered all over the cable networks for weeks.
But racial identifiers are not used in this article. Hmmm, I wonder why?
By the way, all of the assailants were Black.
Black lives matter.
End welfare and bring back the death penalty. Oh and nuke Baltimore
The skin color of the juvenile attackers is a given, and most never knew their father…
Sounds like Baltimore should take a page out of the Ft. Worth, TX police playbook. Pairs of policemen on bicycles patrol the Sundance Square area. But, of course, 80% of those walking around Sundance Square are probably carrying, too. Support nationwide reciprocity on concealed carry laws.
Once Black lives matters starts correcting endemic racism, these teens will stop randomly beating people and will become straight A students and upstanding members of a civil society.
I knew before I looked – "Teens" and "Youths" are code words for the obvious plague on this nation that PC censorship prohibits anyone from discussing
And if anyone here thinks Baltimore is going to do one thing about this you got another thing coming. Its only going to get worse because they don't have anyone to stop it. Everyone all over Maryland knows not to go to Baltimore. Go to Annapolis harbor instead. They don't allow the thugs to rule in Annapolis.
Martial Law is to goal.
Right on schedule.
Diversity is a code-word for white genocide
I wonder how the racial demographics shake out in this case…
If you are dumb enough to visit Baltimore, I'm sorry but it's your own fault, you have not been paying attention.
I'm thankful I live in a state that allows concealed carry.
They may get you by sheer number, but the first lucky few get to pay the price.
Locals refer to the Inner Harbor as "Mondawmin-By-The-Sea" and we know better than to be there after sundown. Even in broad daylight it is still dangerous. Do not go there. It is not worth it.
Well. someone will tire of it and shoot a half dozen of them and it will stop for a while. Then, after the break, it will pick back up. Society has been going in the wrong direction for 35 years. I don't see any chance of improvement. We get lapses from violence, but it seems to always return.
why would any decent normal clean cut person in America ever visit Baltimore and walk around that jungle?? America is over run with these ghetto trash violent animals who have no future but crime against whites.
"Teens". The CBS code word.
Baltimore is such an armpit of a city. I try to avoid it at all cost. But the kicker is, its almost impossible for your average, law abiding person to own a handgun for self-defense an the defense of his family in Baltimore, so these criminals are free to attack whomever they want without repercussion. Maybe one day the people of Maryland will become tired of being the victims at the hands of thugs and vote in politicians who care about the citizens right over that of the criminal elements rights. But I doubt it.
"Disrespect"? LMAO. I think it's a little bit more than that, guy. This is a hate crime.
why don't you have this problem in majority white towns its only black majority towns just asking.
I think the media does this on purpose, because they know it will stir the pot.
There's that euphemism again, teens.
We have to get serious about the "black" problem in this country. I suggest white people and Asian people, completely remove themselves from these cities. Totally boycott them financially, Avoid dealing with this element of society at all costs until they decide to police themselves. They are bringing up a HUGE new generation of career criminals, the prison population will double in ten years.
"Teens" again.
Probably those Hasidic Jews again…
did anyone catch when the black city official talked about the "disrespect" shown by the "teenagers" (cough). disrespect is when you talk back to your teacher. this was brutal, animalistic pack violence. "people" like that are not fit to live in civilization.
inner harbor has always been one of my favorite places. i love the aquarium and so many other parts of that area, but if this is the situation, i'll never feel right about taking my family to visit.
ahhh little obamites playing, what is the problem, you removed the racist statutes, you removed those horrible guns, you live in utopia, enjoy your liberal world you wanted.
Bet it was the most violent, criminal, destructive under achieving race in Americ…..MAGA
No suspects? Maybe if you released a description of the assailants you could find some suspects.
Well, If they can't have a cop on every corner and I'm not allowed to protect myself, then, my family and I won't be going to the Baltimore Inner Harbor. Hopefully, Baltimore's tourism industry will be able to survive through the generous support of the cities thriving hoodlum community.
Where is Colin Kaepernick when we need him?
Thank you Barack Obama.
Not much of this in Az. Like zero. No permit required for concealed or open carry. You see old grampas carrying guns in Walmart while their wife shops. And she's got a Smith Air weight in her cc purse.
"Teens" is not the proper description. "Animals" is more appropriate & everybody knows who they are.
When will people realize the need to carry the great equalizer?? When Thugs attack you, U have EVERY RIGHT to defend Your Life! Liberals want to disarm Us. But as we see with this family, it puts everyone at the mercy of these street Thugs! Wise Up People & Arm yourselves!
if obama had a son
Arm yourself, and protect yourself. These "kids" have no future but prison and death. Seventy percent illegitimacy rate in the black community, the single greatest predictor of a failed life outcome.
It wasn't that way prior to President Johnson's "Great Society" welfare programs that replaced men in the home with the government.
But it is that way now, so again, arm and protect yourself.
They are not going to be productive members of society, they're psychopaths.
Then, never again vote for the liberal policies that destroyed the black family and community that reward destructive behavior that increases misery.
Are they preparing to go to college?….
One of those renegade Swedish gangs you hear so much about. Baltimore is full of them.
NEGROS, that is all our need to know, NEGROS assaulting, robbing, raping, mudering
Feral apes useful for target practice only.
Baltimore… knew what was happening from the one word. Time to have the LGBT community buy up the properties and rehab the bay area. Anyone else, and the elected official and public opinion would prevent the purge needed to get the community back from these "teens".
Two words would solve this problem: gun rights.
The statues are gone. So what made these "teens" beat up people?
And no description of the attackers – not even what race.
could someone explain to me again how we are all equal? To any minority reading this…you WILL be treated how you treat others…problem with other races…LOOK IN THE MIRROR first
I wouldn't be kneeling by my husband waiting for someone else. My entire family carries,,,,, and that would be that. What they did was commit an act of terrorism, attempting great bodily harm and we know what we do to terrorist.
The police / government will not / can not protect you. As a man, you must be ready at all time to protect your family. Know your surroundings, be ware, and be ready to shoot / kill as many as you can.
Has anybody else noticed that most of these uncontrolled kids are Black teen. Not just there, but everywhere. Seems the answer to this is, stay out of black areas.
Yet the morons that live here chose to elect those who forbid them the right to defend themselves…
I think there should be police officers on every corner particularly for big events like this one was. And the Mayor needs to make that happen. Pronto!
"teenagers", "teens", "juveniles", "juveniles"
What do you want to bet that they were black juveniles?
Elephant in the room which is NEVER brought up, EVERY single case is black on white attacks. EVERY ONE around the country. Never brought up. Dozens in past couple months if you scan news sites. How many more not reported. When are white players going to start taking a knee to bring this to light. Thank you Barak.
Just another crowd of porch monkeys that need to be exterminated like the rabid animals they are.
Large group of teenagers. Do I get a guess at the color of these, as Hillary would say, superpredators?
"disrespect from some of these juveniles ", uh um I think beating and violently punching people is a bit more than disrespect? I guess that is the heart of the problem. Some people have different views on what constitutes assault and violence. I would consider physically punching or kicking someone, starting fires and burning private property, smashing cars, etc as violence, not as disrespect. Personally I would avoid all the major cities as its open "hunting" season on normal average Americans (of any ethnicity, race or religion) by anarchist anti American groups right now, much of it being spurred on by the NFL players anti police/anti America kneeling which legitimizes the violent acts by these groups of teenagers. They see their idols "disrespecting" America so they feel justified in doing so as well.
"teens"…so no more descriptive terms you have…like maybe color of skin?????
White people need to avoid blacks… they're losing it.
And the media won't warn you of obvious black dysfunction.
I think we should all be more tolerant toward these juveniles. Theyre just releasing their anxiety toward the white supremists.
Hey leftists, please tell us where blacks are attacked by whites, anywhere in the country, where a black person or family cannot walk in a public place for fear of being attacked. Oh wait, it's not the white neighborhoods that people get violently attacked in. Must be black privilege.
The real shock is that Baltimore has a tourism industry.
America doesn't have a "crime problem" per se, America has a BLACK CRIME PROBLEM.
Remove blacks from the stats, the USA has Western European (well, pre Muzzrat invasion) like crime numbers. But you know, take a gddamn knee, savages.
enter cities at your own risk, is the new motto after 8 years of obama and after nov 2016!
The "youths" are black. We all know it but no one seems to be willing to admit it. They are cowards by nature which is why they travel in feral packs and attack white families with children and elderly members. If some of these "teens" or "youths" received hot lead at 900 ft per second, the attacks would end, but the leadership of Baltimore, charm city, is happy to give them space to destroy instead.
And Baltimore thinks they have a shot at Amazon re-locating headquarters to the south side. Bal does not have a shot in hell, and frankly the city doesn't deserve it. 50 years of rot and cancer and statist polices that have led infrastructure collapse, abandoned blocks of row homes that resemble bombed out Dresden, school systems that graduate students without even baseline reading and math skills and demoralize from the time they set foot in Gov educational system which is the equivalent of hell, purveyors of a victimhood mindset that destroys the black man's spirit and leaves him immobilized, endless fiscal insanity and insolvency, and normalized crime, assaults, and murder, year after year. Leadership failure.
No talk of hate crimes anymore? just groups of teenagers? Please – this a much bigger story if anyone has the guts to report it accurately!
And that folks is an example of Black Privilege.
This is why you need a high capacity clip for.
Guessing they KNOW that the "yootes" are from a protected class, hence THEY are at fault for presenting such an easy target / motivation for their "self-expression". Welcome to Obama World!
"Teens " Obamas legacy.
Hard to understand, but we don't read of these things happening in Florida and other CCW states.
This is probably a false report, after all, Maryland has 'good strong gun control to keep people safe', so no way this could have happened.
Please disregard this clearly false report.
Probably it was published by the 'vast right wing conspiracy.' snark snark.
Time for Paul Kersey to come out of retirement. Put a few in the ground and watch the difference it will make.
BLACK teens. BLACK teens. BLACK. It's easy. One syllable. Say it. Tell the TRUTH. Why lie? Why NOT tell the truth?
Just a random family that was attacked, eh? By chance was the random family a "fair skinned" family. I don't have to ask about the attackers, but correct me if I'm wrong and the gang of thugs was a group of Asians taking a break from their studies.
Ah, those Mormon "teens" … Baltimore is soon to be another Detroit. The inmates are, indeed, running the asylum. Sad.
Lincoln was so right; there's no way the majority of blacks will ever be able to function in civilization with other races. Just look at Afreaka. Those who continue to go to Blacktimore deserve what they get, just like those who stick their hand in a blender running on high speed…
Blacks have an average IQ of 80 – do you really expect civilized behavior from such people? Why is it that any place that is majority Black is a human heII hole?
"Teens" means black thugs of any age.
Maryland, particularly Baltimore, needs conceal and carry. Take out a couple of these thugs and it will end….I hate to be this way but sometimes the simplest solutions may work out to be the best….
15 teens… 15 rounds in a clip. Coincidence? I think not.
These primitive creatures do not belong in white civilization. They demonstrate why each and every day.
Ive watched that once beautiful area slowly go down hill the past 20 years. Was there about 6 years ago and what I saw scared me. Never again.
It's not against the law to carry around a nice metal baseball bat. These kids are almost always cowards. Crack the biggest one in the head, and the rest will scatter like ants.
In Baltimore's case, the inmates ARE running the prison.
The cover-up cowards at CBS strike again.
A very pertinent fact was left out of this article. Can you guess what that might be?
It is not safe to go in a 5 mile radius of streets named Martin Luther King Way\Ave\St\Rd in any city in the US. Who do these black thugs think they are fooling?
It is going to be alright, they WERE liberals that thought diversity was wonderful. Now they will be conservatives.
I suspect a description of the teens was given in the story because it is already assumed given the location and the action.
Here we go again with "Baltimore teens." The usual white Amish riff-raff?
Let's play a game of…. Guess….. The…….Race..
Do you still believe in BLM?
Baltimore is a swamp. Drain it by boycotting local merchants until they change their government and their priorities.
Fortunately the family was unarmed so the "teens" were free to do dey thang.
"large number of teenagers."…"groups of teens"…"the attackers"…"beaten by a group"…"these juveniles"…"the group appears to have been made up of juveniles"
Another classic example of the PC media propagandists attempting to condition their readers to ignore the obvious.
Political Correctness is killing us. All cultures are not the same.
"The most insidious power the media has, is the power to ignore." (Chris Plante, WMAL)
But it isn't like we didn't know:
"Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have." -Richard Salant, former president of CBS News
"We are going to impose our agenda on the coverage, by dealing with issues and subjects that we choose to deal with." – Richard Cohen, Senior Producer, CBS Political News
Black Racism', is the giant elephant in the middle of the room, that everyone knows is there, but pretend not to see. The downplaying, the endless Affirmative Excuses and the silence from the media and society as a whole, only feeds it, empowers it, and allows it to grow. And in this Liberal run PC society, blacks are pretty much allowed to be as blatantly and in-your-face racist as they want to be.
As one police officer commented: "Funny how that works isn't it? Being a cop I have been seeing this "hate crime" game going on for years. I would take reports of blatant racism by blacks against whites, in which whites were put into the hospital, terrorized at night in their homes, shot, stabbed, you name it, and the newspaper doesn't even report it. Or if they do they never mention the races of the people involved."
"The most insidious power the media has, is the power to ignore." (Chris Plante, WMAL)
I hope they (family) were DEMOCRATS voters.
Start hanging a few of these thugs from lampposts in W Balto. See just how quickly the young Thugvons fall into line…
How do they know they were teens? Young black males would be more descriptive and accurate, but suicidal political correctness prevents "journalists" from relaying "hate facts".
It's sure a good thing nobody in that family had a gun. Otherwise some of those sweet innocent children might have been hurt.
What is WRONG with you haters?
It's simple NEVER visit any city where the african's are in charge in ANY way or are over 30% of the population. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!! They want to maim/hurt/kill you if you are an unarmed WHITE.
Darn white Catholic kids again.
Why any white would ever enter Baltimore, let alone walk around is beyond me. You are not wanted there.You are not welcome there. Why spend one single dime of your hard earned money to support anything in Baltimore? Boycott it entirely.
This is the result of 50 years of constant Liberal brainwashing on a targeted demographics to believe that they are perpetual victims of the "evil white man". By always making a point of hyping and exploiting the far rarer examples of white on black racial violence, while ignoring the far more common incidents of violent black racism and discrimination against whites and Asians, the
Liberal MSM tries endlessly to convince their viewers that the least racist demographics, are the most racist; and the most racist demographics, aren't racist at all!
'Black LIES Matter'- Approximately 85% of all interracial violence, including assault, murder and rape between blacks and whites, is black on white.
A Single Parent Sub-Culture raised on anti white animosity and envy. Triggered by their racist hatred and a righteous indignation instilled and encouraged by a Leftist Hollywood and a Public School program of Victimist Propaganda.
Empowered by Liberals and their Entitlement Mentality. Protected by the National News Media, Political Correctness and a corrupt racist DOJ under Eric 'My People' Holder and Barack 'If I Had a Son' Obama.
Forgiven by an endless list of Affirmative Excuses and Lowered Expectations. Sanitized and Glorified beyond recognition by a fawning SJW media on TV, on the Movie screen, and in Commercials, as innocent, righteous paragons of humanity.
Liberals and their media having dumbed down their education, inflated their tribalistic race based pride and egos, and enraged their senses by instilling a constant sense of victim-hood with movies like 'Django Unchained', 'The Butler', 'Twelve Years a Slave', the new 'Birth Of A Nation', and the remake of 'Roots'. Creating a youth culture of stupid, self-important, angry, uncontrollable and violent racist spoiled brats.
We know they were Black because otherwise, incidents like this would be plastered all over CNN. The other clue is that if they were White, the article would state it.
Poor misunderstood youth, I tell ya!!!!!!
"Teens." Aka Gangs.
"teenagers" huh? What aren't they telling us?
Description of the attacking teens please?
"Teens," "teens," "teens," … let me help you with this: "blacks," "blacks," "blacks." There, now teenagers who are not part of the 13% don't have to be pounded for things they didn't do.
I stand with (or rather, kneel with) the BLMNFL players that fighting against police aggression these Baltimore teens.
Thank God the media didn't tell their readers that the "teenagers" were ghetto nnegros, "entertaining" themselves in a gun free zone controlled for decades by the socialist elites running the Democratic Party.
And thanks to the bigots in the NFL, a white policeman "interfering" with that "entertainment" would be considered a racists and would be subject to prosecution.
It's always teens when they are black. If they were white teens beating on a black family then they'd be called a racist, neo-nazi, white supremist, pro-KKK violent gang. I don't feel sorry for these people, they knew in advance Baltimore is a city of black violence and hatred of anything white. Rotten shame that America's big cities run by blacks have become such rotten, disgusting places to live in or visit.
What do you expect, Mayor Stephanie has a history of telling the police department NOT TO ENGAGE CRIMINALS, and to let the city riot, all while the poor police were forced to watch.
Most states with anti firearm or restrictive gun laws have the highest percentage of violent crime, why not, the criminals know that the victims will be unarmed.
Next trip to Baltimore checklist:
-underwear: check
-toothbrush: check
-bumpstock: check
Obama gave thugs a license to do that.
Buy them books, build them a school and they eat the teacher
It's a shame. The market down the street is so much fun to go and eat the different ethnic foods. The only problem is that all of the people standing around like it's a crack house scare the heck out of everyone with their drug deals and cat calling! We went to a volleyball tourney for my daughter there about 4 or 5 years ago and it was definitely not a safe feel in downtown Baltimore.
It be those darn white privilege kids, they are so violent and intimidating it's no wonder things like this happen!
I was promised that taking down the Confederate statues would stop this.
Don't make the Black kids angry! LOL Notice we can't upvote or down vote these posts anymore because most of the folks here don't agree with the Commie Broadcast System!
*Airquotes* . TEENAGERS . *Airquotes*
An armed society is a polite society.
In 1936, times were hard in Little Rock, Arkansas. My 15 year-old grandmother was a prostitute in those days. And birth control was unreliable. So she gave birth to my mother in a home for unwed mothers. Our heritage was unknown, but we had our suspicions, because my grandmother did her best to conceal things. However, after she died, science made our DNA heritage accessible. 23&Me revealed that I am 1/8 black. My mother is 1/4. So if these black kids had swarmed me & I did some serious harm to them, could I have been accused of racial hatred? (I have a strong tendency to vocalize during combat). I have slightly tan skin & green eyes. I tan well. So there it is… the DNA. In the Old South, I would have been arrested for marrying a white woman. All four of my kids are lily white, like their mother. The question: When do we start having one-drop race tests in modern America to determine if people are guilty of racial hatred or race crimes against black people? I ponder these questions because the USA is totally obsessed with race, and black people are the most obsessed of them all. When these black kids attack people, especially white people, they have no idea about the truth, except that they are themselves stupid, vicious & vile.
More than 20 years ago Hillary Clinton spoke of bringing superpredators to heel … would have made a terrific Pres
You can take the savage out of the jungle but you can't take the jungle out of the savage… ooga-booga!
The all so common thread is young black males are violent. Far moroe violent than any other sub group in terms of percentage of the population. Avoid areas where they gather and if you see them get away fast.
You can bet they were BLACK since they did not report the race. If they attackers had been white they would have reported on it as usual.
Time for good people to ignore bad laws, and carry some heat: I suggest a "revolver for stupid people" that shoots .45 bullets/.410 shot and slug. A pretty good model is the Taurus Judge.
The Taurus Judge will stop any smart person in their tracks, as the wielder only need point in the general direction of the threat(s) to ensure an effective and often lethal defense. If the threat is stupid, he/she becomes mince meat that the fire department will hose off the street.
Baltimore, and every city in the USA, should belong to good people — not the idiots and thugs that intend random harm. Take your town back, and tell the political hacks and the cops that it's your town now — carry heat and make the statement.
An armed society is a respectful society.
Ten years ago we used to love going up to Baltimore to the Inner Harbor, to great Restaurants in "Little Italy", to Ravens games, to Oreoles games, even to Pimlico.. Now we never dare go inside the Baltimore Beltway because the risk of attack by these violent slime is just too high!
In the past few years we also stopped riding Metro into DC after the DC school kids (who ride Metro for free) started attacking white passengers…
Thank god for Colin Flaherty who speaks the truth.
I have been all over the world including several cities in the middle east and I have never been anywhere that made me feel as unsafe as Baltimore. It would be safer to sing the national anthem on the streets of Tehran than walk through B-More with an iPhone. Baltimore should be pushed out in the bay and start fresh. I lived there for years and one place I will never go back to. You just can fix 5 generations of drugs, crime, poverty and now lawlessness of beating innocent families.
More of Mr. O's kids. He's got a big family…
It's Black Mob Violence targeting white people, the media has been instigating these attacks by instilling a victim complex into Blacks that makes them feel justified in behaving like savages.
when will I see people kneeling about this?
Shoot to kill every savage that approaches you………………………….
juveniles … teenagers … yoofs
Stuff like this happens overwhelmingly in states that make it difficult for citizens to carry pistols. Let the young thugs try this somewhere like Georgia, Florida, Alabama, or a bunch of other states, and they'll get something they didn't plan on. Communist states like Maryland are merely victim-rich zones for criminals.

Wall Shelves - Why Leave Walls Barren?
A house has three parts- a Floor to walk around all day long, a Ceiling to create our own starry sky, and Walls that act as free canvases. Walls create a cosy feel as well as protect us from deviants and harsh weather conditions. We can do so much with four walls in a room than one can even imagine. Play with them to express what's on your mind through paint or accessorise these with wall accents. Walls are wonders that present an interior enthusiast with an opportunity to create wonders. One way to add a twist to your walls is with the addition of wall shelves. Designed to maximise the storage, these wall shelves also offer a way to add accents to your wall in a creative manner. At Tezerac, you will come across a vivid collection of wall shelves that are curated from different parts of the world and brought to you on crazy, affordable prices.
Things to consider while buying wall shelves:
- 1. Room for mounting
- 2. Number of wall shelves required
- 3. End use of the shelves
- 4. Dimensions and material of the wall shelves
At Tezerac, you will find wooden wall shelves, metal wall shelves, box wall shelves, ladder-style wall shelves, and much more. You can use these wall shelves to either tidy up your space or give a unique character to the walls. Create a dedicated space for your memories by mounting a couple of walls shelves on a wall and placing vintage-style frames. You can also use wall shelves to create a floating dressing table in a room with space limitations. Mount a few shelves in your little one's bedroom to pull off a floating library. Wall shelves offer a lot of options to maximise storage as well as add grace to a wall.

In an interview with the Ubuntu Turkey LoCo team Canonical CTO Matt Zimmerman discusses the reasons behind some of the recent controversial changes to Ubuntu �" from the removal of photo editor GIMP to the decision to move the window controls.
On Window buttons
Zimmerman was asked how the decision to shift window controls was reached and whether community opinion was factored in. He replied: –
…the decision to move the window buttons was made by Mark Shuttleworth. He explained that he wanted this in order to be able to use the space on the right side of the window for other things in the future. There have been many well-considered objections to this, both from users and from Ubuntu contributors, but he has decided to press ahead with the change anyway.
On Mono
When asked his opinion on the contentious issue of Mono in Ubuntu he termed it 'valuable' thought admitted that "…there are risks involved in choosing the .NET platform to develop free software, because it is under the ultimate control of Microsoft. Whilst Microsoft could take advantage of this to attack free software in various ways. This would be a logical act of self-preservation, and consistent with their previous actions and statements of intent."

He affirms that this is what an educated, honorable, realistic, democracy should support:
-Younger people should pay more
-Healthier people should pay more
-Older people should just die- they're "too expensive"
-There should be "less innovation" in medical technology
-You should not expect to live longer than your parents.
You heard it yourself! This is what they're planning for our health care. This is what they want. Nothing about that is enlightened, liberal, compassionate, or good. This man and his boss are clearly misanthropic, cruel, and vicious.
Representative Alan Grayson of Florida stands corrected- the Democrats' plan for health care is "just die quickly" -not the Republicans.

I have a gambrel barn roof with another lower pitched roof that meets this roof.
My problem is that snow builds up on the lower roof and melts into the gambrel roof and into the house beacuse the contractor who installed it just put in soffits (hopefully you can see what I mean from the pictures).
Is there something I can use to either put behind or substitute for the soffits? Sorry I don't have a pic handy without snow on it.

Heritage Museum
The museum's current feature exhibit, March 2018 through April 2019, is titled "Then & Now."
In our modern world nearly everyone carries a smart phone. Incorporated in that handheld device is technology that has taken hundreds of years to develop. The smart phone has the capacity to send oral and text messages, take photos and video, tell time, play a variety of computer games, make calculations, play music, show movies, record and store important personal notes and information, watch television and organize time.
With the smart phone as the "Now" base, the museum has put together a historical "Then" display of a number of inventions that are now part of the modern phone. For example, one feature is a display of still and movie cameras and movie projectors ranging from the first Kodak 1878 Brownie to the modern digital camera. Also, there is a display of antique phonographs, cylinder and vinyl records, radios and video senders and receivers that trace the history of recorded sound from 1868 to the present. The exhibit also includes a very old Layton City telephone switchboard, an old pay phone and representative telephones from various historical time periods.
Other display features include antique computer equipment, no longer used typewriters from various time periods, old video games, antique calculators and adding machines, old movie drive-in sound speakers as well as a number of children's games and toys that are now accessible on the smart phone.
The museum's hours are: Tuesday through Friday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 1 to 5 p.m. Closed Monday and holidays.
Layton Old Town
The museum's permanent exhibit features the history of Layton and is called "Layton Old Town." Artifacts, pictures and stories in this exhibit cover the development of Layton and surrounding communities from 1850 to the present. Native American artifacts tell the story of the area's first residents. Pioneer artifacts and photographs tell the story of the area's first white settlers. Artifacts and pictures from the area's first commercial ventures tell the story of the area's economic development from the first cottage industries to the most recent on-going businesses; and artifacts and historical pictures of the agricultural development of North Davis County tell a story of a vanishing way of life.

HULK HOGAN Refiles $100 Mil Sex Tape Lawsuit Against Gawker
Hulk Hogan is moving forward with his $100 million lawsuit against Gawker for posting his sex tape online … TMZ has learned, the wrestling legend has refiled the case.
Hulk dismissed the lawsuit in federal court without prejudice last month, and refiled it in Florida state court — where he's also currently suing his sex tape partner Heather Clem … the ex-wife of radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge. Hulk claims Clem played a role in leaking the footage to the media.
Hulk's lawyer tells TMZ, Hulk dismissed the federal case in order to consolidate his claims against both Clem and Gawker … i.e. to bring both cases under the same roof … which ultimately means less paperwork and attorney's fees.
As we reported, Hulk sued Gawker last October for posting a minute-long clip of him doing the dirty with Clem … a tape that was recorded more than 6 years ago.
Hulk also sued Bubba the Love Sponge for unspecified damages — accusing him of leaking the footage to the media — but that lawsuit was settled, and Bubba apologized on the air.

Partner Highlight: Nano Extravaganza in New York's Capital Region!
In February of 2013, longtime NISE Net children's museum partner, the Children's Museum of Science and Technology in Troy, NY (CMOST), announced that it will become part of SUNY's College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE). Under CNSE's leadership, more than $5 million will be invested to transform the Children's Museum into a world-renowned science center for young people—a hub for 21st century learning and discovery!
The museum has been partnering with CNSE to engage the public in nanotechnology for many years. CMOST summer campers participate in field trips at labs at the NanoCollege; CNSE students and scientists facilitate educational outreach activities and lead workshops; and the two organizations partner with other groups in the area to put on a region wide NanoDays celebration. The investment from CNSE will support new and exciting programming, more interactive displays, hands-on activities and other initiatives. Existing collaborations at CNSE CMOST will continue and be enhanced through this transition, and the museum hopes to use this opportunity to maintain and build stronger regional relationships.
CNSE CMOST features the Nano mini-exhibition, and it made incredibly creative use of many of NISE Net's graphic resources in its exhibition signage. Throughout the many hands-on, interactive exhibits in the museum, visitors can find multiple nano connections, such as "nano hot spots," a specially designed nano scavenger hunt, and nano-related floor programming.
Already this spring, we've seen some of the great benefit of this collaboration! SUNY's College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE), CNSE's Children's Museum of Science and Technology (CNSE CMOST), Trinity Alliance of the Capital Region, and public libraries in four counties partnered to host extensive public outreach events during NanoDays 2013.
"By taking an innovative approach to sparking an interest among young people in the exciting science of nanotechnology, SUNY's NanoCollege is continuing to build a critical pipeline for both higher education and the high-tech workforce in New York," said SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher. "I commend these proactive educational outreach initiatives being undertaken as part of national NanoDays, which underscore the expanding opportunities in our state's fastest-growing industry."
"Spurred by Governor Andrew Cuomo's vision and leadership, New York has pioneered a winning strategy whereby educational events like national NanoDays, coupled with world-class nanotechnology research and the attraction of the world's leading high-tech companies, have established the New New York as 'the place to be' for a seat at the 21st century table of high-tech innovation," said Dr. Alain Kaloyeros, CNSE Senior Vice President and CEO. "CNSE is thrilled to partner with CMOST, Trinity Alliance, and public libraries throughout the region to stimulate excitement and spark further interest in nanotechnology, particularly among our next generation of scientists."
In late March, New York's Capital Region was abuzz for a weeklong series of educational events, hands-on experiments, and exciting activities based around the NISE Net NanoDays activity kit. The events, led by museum educators, librarians, CNSE's faculty, researchers, and students emphasized relevant, age-appropriate scientific concepts that both entertained and engaged, and introduced kids of all ages to the emerging science of nanotechnology.

Bridport Rural East Safer Neighbourhood Team neighbourhood policing team
- PC Timothy Poole
I work as a Police Constable for my local Safer Neighbourhood Team. My role is varied and typical duties relate to keeping the peace, law enforcement, protection of persons and property, and the investigation of crimes.
As an officer I am expected to respond to a variety of situations that may arise while they are on duty.
About this neighbourhood
The Bridport Section covers the rural towns of Bridport, Lyme Regis and Beaminster, and is not only one of the most visually attractive parts of Dorset, it is also one of the safest in terms of crime and violence against the person.
However, this means any crime trends that emerge tend to have a dramatic impact as everyone in that locality gets to hear about it.
We also have significant policing issues at the height of the season, which now seems to stretch from Easter to mid-October! During the season we assist in policing many locally arranged events. These include Bridport and Lyme Regis Carnival, and the Melplash Agricultural Show.
By working with our partners and the community and building on the wealth of knowledge we have, the officers working within the stations are able to target our main problems and maintain a very high success rate. This success rate is further enhanced by the hard work performed by our Special Constabulary and Police Community Support Officers
The force responsible for policing and crime prevention in this area is Dorset Police.

Clinical depressionOverview
Depression is more than simply feeling unhappy or fed up for a few days.
Depression is a low mood that lasts for weeks or months and affects your daily life.
Symptoms of depression include feeling unhappy or hopeless, low self-esteem and finding no pleasure in things you usually enjoy.
Many things can cause depression such as stressful events, personality, family history and giving birth.
Treatment for depression usually involves a combination of lifestyle changes, talking therapies and medicines.

Tai chi and qi gong
(say "chee goong") are traditional Chinese movement exercises. They are based
on two ideas:
Tai chi is a series of movements done either very slowly
or quickly to help move the body's chi. People use tai chi as a way to combine
meditation and movement and to improve and maintain health.
gong involves different movements that may be done in different orders. Some
common qi gong movements include raising and lowering the arms, moving the head
from side to side, and gently rubbing the ears, feet, and hands.
People may
use tai chi and qi gong to improve posture, balance, coordination, endurance,
and flexibility and to maintain good health and quality of life. One study
found that tai chi boosts
immunity and resistance to the
shingles virus in older adults.1
As with any
physical activity, people who perform tai chi or qi gong may experience muscle
strains or sprains. Gentle stretching before a tai chi or qi gong session can
prevent most injuries.
In most cases, you can safely use tai chi
or qi gong alongside conventional medical treatments.
Always tell
your doctor if you are using an alternative therapy or if you are thinking
about combining an alternative therapy with your conventional medical
treatment. It may not be safe to forgo your conventional medical treatment and
rely only on an alternative therapy.

Cultural practices and religious beliefs can influence how people view illness, medical treatments, death, grief and funeral rituals. They may also influence viewpoints on living organ donation and deceased organ donation, or differentiate between medical procedures which are life-enhancing or life-saving. Many religious groups endorse organ donation and/or respect a person's right to make their own decision.
If you have questions about your own religious or spiritual practice and organ donation, speak with your religious or spiritual leader.

approximately 1561 Calvin wrote a "letter to the faithful in
France" in which he stronly urged them to use the mereaux.
The use of such an attendance token consequently became common practice
and for more than 200 years it served as a token of adherence to the
persecuted religion and its rites as well as a secret symbol of the
solidarity of the faithful.
and back of the Méreau used by
the Church of l'Agenais, 16th century.
front depicts Christ, dressed as a shepherd tending his flock.
In the
1680's, during the large scale royal persecution of Huguenots, the mereaux were
used as an identification device to detect any Roman Catholic spy.
Huguenots had to show their méreuax when
they entered the Church as proof of their membership of the Protestant
church. After the revocation of the Edict
of Nates many
Huguenot churches continued to use it, also in countries outside of
France by Huguenot refugees, including the Threadneedle
Street Church in
London where it was in use until 1692.
Even in
later times its use continued. The Order of the Colloque
du Bordelais, on December 17th, 1754, Art. 7, XVII, reads: "Since
we must be very careful and take precautions, each member will be given
a particular mark or cachet to be handed over at the place of assembly.
Those who are without them will not be admitted at the holy offices".
The méreaux were
normally circular, except those used in Nimes which were oval. The
sizes differed, but normally it was about 30 mm (1¼ inches) in
diameter. Also the names, motifs and inscriptions varied locally
because of different moulds used to coin them. In Poitou they were
known as marques,
in Languedoc marreaux,
and in Angoumois marrons.
Most of them were made out of lead or pewter (piouter),
but sometimes they were made in leather, wax, or even glass.
As far
as the motif is concerned, they were of two kinds: "le type au
berger" (shepherd type, shown above, and "le type à
la coupe" (cup type), depending on the design depicted on the
head side. On the méreau shown
above Christ is depicted as a shepherd, with a staff in His left hand,
holding a trumpet in His right hand. Two fig trees, one on either side
of Christ, with a cross and banner are also shown. A flock of sheep,
symbolising His followers, is shown at His feet.
The back
side of the méreau shows
an open bible, which is usually opened at St. Luke chapter 12, verse
32: "Have no fear little flock; for it is your Father's good
pleasure to give you the kingdom". Above the Bible is a
symbolic shining sun and six stars.

Thinking Fans Comment Update Sept. 26: pjs reports that his tear ducts got a work-out … Nancy wishes Night Shift could become home to neglected soap veterans … Marilyn Henry reflects on other great soap scenes … and more. See Comments below.
By Marlena De Lacroix
Last night I unexpectedly saw the best soap opera scenes of the year. They were in, of all places, General Hospital: Night Shift! They came from the heart and the head. They were thoroughly human. I could relate to them perfectly. And I was so stunned to see authentic drama on my screen, I almost couldn't fall asleep afterward.
As you know, those doctor brothers Kyle and Leo Julian have been on each other, arguing and disagreeing about everything since the beginning of the show. They couldn't be more opposite. Kyle looks like a Nordic god and has innate elegance (he's also gay). Leo looks like Epstein, the Puerto Rican street kid (Sweat Hog) from Welcome Back, Kotter and is dark, nervous and brash. Kyle is the biological
It's amazing what actors can do given good quality material. Think of the hundreds of other actors in daytime who would kill to play real drama instead of the usual gimmicks and lies.
son of the Julians, while Leo, who is adopted by them, came from Iran as a child. Leo acted out big time recently by secretly sleeping with Kyle's best friend and roommate Dr. Claire, even though he has been lucky enough to date [Read more…]

The total number of ballots cast was 3,292. Eighty-one ballots arrived after the November 1 deadline and could not be counted. Survey and Ballot Systems, Inc., of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, scanned the ballots and tabulated the results. Only 20 ballots needed to be hand counted. Some voters registered their opinions about candidates, and the committee will review these criticisms and comments at its next meeting in February 1998.
The committee met, as usual, in Washington, D.C., February 1-3, for what turned out to be a most productive and congenial meeting. In a break from tradition, we began our meeting on a Saturday. We had planned to meet until Tuesday, February 4, but found that we had finished our work by Monday morning. All of us thought that the new pattern for the meeting-beginning on Saturday-was a highly successful innovation and we recommend that it continue. The new schedule, however, makes it very important to have as much information about potential candidates as possible. The committee, therefore, recommends that members of the next Nominating Committee be informed as soon as possible of the slots that will be open and they be urged to accumulate and bring c.v.'s to the meeting. The committee also recommends that the AHA's membership list be available electronically in the meeting room for the committee's use.
Participation in the election this year was higher than last year, with 3,292 votes cast as opposed to the 2,730 cast the year before. In general, however, participation rates have been disappointingly low considering the size of the AHA. Because last year's committee expressed concern about this, we were asked by the AHA Council to look at the candidate biography booklet that accompanies the election ballot. Sharon K. Tune of the AHA staff provided us with samples of candidate information used by other learned societies.
In our discussions, we unanimously agreed that radical change is needed to make the booklet more attractive and user-friendly. The present format carries a lot of useful information but it is filled with abbreviations and it looks too much like a sea of type. We believe that it would be preferable to present less total information but to present the central information in a truly readable form. This is a case of "less is more," because our effort to make a great deal of information available means that none was actually being communicated.
We recommend that the new booklet be primarily narrative in format. A narrative would give the candidates some choice as to how to present themselves to the membership, and they would have the opportunity to advance some interesting ideas. The new format would still include information about major publications, awards, and service.
Specifically, we recommend that the individual candidate's narrative begin with his or her name, affiliation, job title, and fields of interest. This would be followed by a statement of a limited number of words, and with limited entries in a number of categories. These categories (as modified by the AHA Council) presented in the narrative, not a list, would include:
- Major publications (we would want to provide some guidelines as to what constitutes major publications).
- Major awards and service.
- Other contributions (a category that would allow public historians to list their accomplishments).
We also thought that the AHA should explore the possibility of using individual pictures. (The Council rejected this proposal.) We also recommend that the AHA explore the use of a typographic consultant on graphics and layout. Several committee members thought that such advice might be available at low cost, perhaps through the use of a friend of the organization or a graduate student in the field of design.
We also thought that candidates should have the option of placing their c.v.'s on the AHA's web site.
All of us felt strongly that the final vote should not be published in the newsletter; it would still be available, of course, in the AHA's Annual Report and reported to the business meeting.
Several committee members suggested revisions in the Manual of Policies and Procedures developed last year. The chair of the committee will submit revisions to the AHA office.
Executive director Sandria B. Freitag gave us valuable advice, and all of us appreciated the many ways in which assistant director Sharon K. Tune helped us to perform our tasks. I would also like to thank the eight other members of the committee, and the members of the previous Nominating Committees I served with who, while keeping their focus on our duties, also kept their sense of humor and made our meetings congenial as well as highly effective.
Arthur Zilversmit (Lake Forest College) is Chair, 1997 AHA Nominating Committee.

Mesmerizing House with a Solar Skin
Team Germany took first prize at Solar Decathlon 2007, and they're moving up in the rankings this year. After the architectural competition, the team is now solidly in second place with a few more days to go. Could the cube with a solar facade bring last year's victor its second consecutive win? In 2007, Team Germany had a beautiful home covered in oak louvered frames with integrated photovoltaics. This year, the team of 24 architects and students has furthered the same theme with 40 single-crystal silicon panels on the roof and roughly 250 thin-film CIGS panels on the sides.

Publication of part two of the World Anti-Doping Agency Independent Commission report
By Duncan Mackay and Nick Butler at the Dolce Munich Unterschleissheim
By Duncan Mackay and Nick Butler at the Dolce Munich Unterschleissheim
At the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Iranian judoka Arash Miresmaeili was disqualified for weighing in at nearly four pounds above the limit for his weight class of his under-66 kilograms match against an Israeli opponent Ehud Vaks in the first round. It was claimed Miresmaeili had gone on an eating binge to protest the International Olympic Committee's recognition of the state of Israel. Iran does not recognise the state of Israel, and Miresmaeili's actions won praise from high-ranking Iranian officials. Mohammad Khatami, the country's President at the time, was quoted as saying Miresmaili's actions would be "recorded in the history of Iranian glories". He was later awarded $125,000 by the Government - the same amount given to Olympic gold medallists.

A scientist at Rice University has created the world's darkest material ever with pure carbon nanotubes, reflecting only .045 per cent of all light shined on it. To put that in perspective, it's 100 times darker than the paint on a black Corvette, or roughly 27 per cent as dark as the viscous substance running through Karl Rove's veins. But this stuff is useful, since its ridiculous light absorption would be great for solar panels. [Houston Chronicle via MAKE]

Many U.S. nonprofit organizations can only look on in dismay as the economic recovery passes them by.
On Monday, the Nonprofit Finance Fund reported that many charitable groups faced daunting financial situations and were looking at new ways to secure their future for the benefit of those they serve.
In a survey of some 5,000 nonprofits nationwide, Nonprofit Finance Fund found that 80% of respondents had experienced an increased demand for services, the sixth consecutive year for increased demand.
In addition, 56% were unable to meet demand in 2013 — the highest reported in the survey's history — and only 11% expected 2014 to be easier than 2013 for the people they serve.
"Americans rely on nonprofits for food, shelter, education, health care and other necessities, and everyone has a stake in strengthening this social infrastructure," Nonprofit Finance Fund CEO Antony Bugg-Levine said in a statement.
"The struggles nonprofits face are not the short-term result of an economic cycle; they are the results of fundamental flaws in the way we finance social good."
New Funding Landscape
The funding landscape is changing for many nonprofits. Of respondents who received government funding, nearly half had seen support decline over the past five years.
Thirty-one percent of nonprofits surveyed said that in the next 12 months, they would change the main ways in which they raised and spent money.
Twenty-six percent said they would pursue an earned income venture, and 20% would look for funding other than grants and contracts, including loans or other investments.
In other findings:
- 55% of nonprofits had three months' cash on hand or less
- 28% ended their 2013 fiscal year with a deficit
- Only 9% said they could have an open dialogue with funders about developing reserves for operating needs
- Just 6% said they could discuss developing reserves for long-term facility needs
"The closer a system gets to failure, the harder it becomes to devote scarce resources toward building a better future," Bugg-Levine said.
The survey found that nonprofits were taking wide-ranging steps to survive and succeed. In the past 12 months, 49% had collaborated with another organization to improve or increase services.
Forty-eight percent had invested money or time in professional development, 40% had upgraded hardware or software to improve organizational efficiency and 39% had conducted long-term strategic or financial planning.
Nonprofit Finance Fund said that for the first time, its annual survey had delved into impact measurement, a core component of some emerging funding models such as pay-for-success. It found the following:
- Respondents said that more than 70% of their funders had requested impact or program metrics
- 77% agreed that the metrics funders asked for were helpful in assessing impact
- Only 1% reported that funders always covered the costs of impact measurement, while 71% said costs were rarely or never covered.
The survey was supported by the Bank of America Charitable Foundation and the Ford Foundation.
