Viral video of the moment a Black mother exchanged words — and a few blows — with a white shopper who allegedly encroached on her daughter's personal space has the Internet talking, many about their own experiences with white folks who refuse to say excuse me.
Twitter page @NYScanner shared a clip of the melee, which unfolded inside a Target store in Brooklyn, New York earlier this week. The mother, visibly angry after the white shopper allegedly reached over her daughter to grab a shampoo, is seen shouting at the woman before rushing over and smacking the phone from her hand.
"You should've said excuse me! Point blank simple," the mother says. "You shouldn't have went over her. You have no manners!"
The shopper, who filmed the incident, continues provoking the woman and threatens to send video of the assault to police. She then brings the woman's daughter into the mix, saying the young tot is clearly "terrified" by her mother's antics.
"I don't care! Do what you have to do!," says the Black woman, unfazed.
Things continue escalating as the two women go back and forth. At one point, the enraged mom threatens to "knock your whole head off" as the shopper continues filming.
"Because I didn't say excuse me? Because I didn't say excuse me, you're knocking people out?" the woman asks.
She proceeds to call the mother "violent," and insinuates that she's abusive: "What do you do to [your daughter] at home if this is what you do to strangers?"
The mother later explains that had the shopper simply said "excuse me," she would have gladly moved her daughter out the way so she could get what she needed, adding: "I didn't know what you were capable of. You could've done anything to her."
The confrontation racked up more than 4 million views and garnered plenty of reactions from Black folks equally frustrated with the white woman's lack of common courtesy — a trend some argued was true for most white people.
"You do NOT touch NObody's kid. For any reason. You say 'Excuse me, Little One,' " one Twitter user wrote. "Ain't nothing in Target that damn important to jostle/reach over/reach around someone's kid."
"Now Becky know damn well if it was the other way around and somebody would have reached over Toby she would have lost her marbles," another chimed in.
One critic said they were immediately put off "just by the way the woman says, '… so because I didn't say excuse me to reach for something I needed' said enough for me [and] tells the entire story," describing the shopper as an "entitled ass yt woman."
Another agreed, arguing that the incident was about much more than white people not saying excuse me.
"This is about white people — white women in particular — treating us as if we're not visible and are not owed common decency and respect," they wrote.
"They will act like you are literally not standing there, and people are tired of it," a fellow user added. "Black people have so many stories about this from them damn near running you off the sidewalk to reaching over you in stores. I may not have reacted as she did, but I understand."
The Yeshiva World reported on the incident and cited a witness who said the NYPD refused to press charges against the Black woman and instead assisted her in filing harassment suit against the victim she assaulted.
Atlanta Black Star hasn't confirmed this detail.

Mainstream "EDM" has been subject to criticism for any number of reasons over the last year. While the DJ Mag Top 100 poll continues to make itself irrelevant thanks to shady vote-mongering, the biggest knock against the DJs occupying some of the top spots concerns the rampant use of ghost producers. Why should an artist that pays someone else to make their music be the one the succeed while others actually put in the time and work? UKF sat down with an anonymous ghost producer to get this answer, and what they were told may help shed some light on what actually happens behind the curtain.
"Most of the time I'll have something sent to me. An idea or a sketch or bassline notation which I can trigger the MIDI from. And if the idea is quite strong and the reference points are suitable then I can do a track in a day. If the basic idea is down then it's a case of designing the right sounds, adding some harmonies or chords and arranging it into a full piece."
So yes, the basic structure is there: A big-name DJ pays a person to make them a song. But the workflow is far more complex than this. More often than not, they'll come to the ghost producer with a half-formed work, and basically ask for a refining more than a full-on creation from scratch. Based on our own knowledge, we can tell you this runs in line with the complexity of the process: A ghost producer will sometimes even send an artist a pack of half-formed loops, beats, and drops that an artist will then incorporate into a track they themselves create.
UKF's interviewee goes on to make a point that speaks to the key similarity between electronic music and the pop music of past generations: "People have always had ghostwriters or producers." Frank Sinatra didn't write a single song on his chart-topping Come Fly With Me album. Fast forward half a century, and the same is true for today's pop stars, all of whom don't get nearly as much flak for calling in outside help. "Justin Bieber, Cher, Britney Spears – none of them write their own songs, none of them produce, none of them engineer, many of them lip-sync when you see them live," the ghost producer tells UKF.
Of course the one notable difference is that the songwriters for Britney and Cher are credited in the liner notes, but odds are those names aren't common knowledge either. The greater point to take away from all this is that the ghost production industry isn't something that simply came to life in the wake of Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. Rather, it's been a fixture in the music industry for as long as pop music has existed. Is there a certain lack of artistic integrity implicit in hiring a ghost producer? Abso-fucking-lutely. Even so though, it's important to recognize that nothing is ever as simple or cut-and-dry as we want it to be.
Other Facts About Ghost Producers:
- A majority of artists who claim they make their own music are telling the truth.
- Common practice for top ghost producers is to charge a low day rate for production and man-hours, but this also comes with a hefty royalty payout.
- Dubstep and drum & bass are notably light on ghost production, as genres that "celebrate sound design and authenticity."
- For UKF's interviewee, he estimates it takes around 5-6 hours to put together a ghost produced track.

For the first few months you will be spending a lot of time outside waiting for your pup to go. If you are interested in maximizing this time, you could work on conditioning your dog to eliminate on cue. It is rather predictable that after your puppy has been in the crate for any given period of time he will have to go. Knowing this, you can "set up" a conditioned response to a regularly used phrase to get him to go.
- Begin by coming up with trigger words for what you would like to ask your dog to do.
- Popular trigger words include "hurry up" or "show me."
- Once you have settled on what you are comfortable using as a cue (don't forget you may end up using this cue in a public place!), then you are ready to begin.
- Every time you take your puppy outside be sure that he is on a leash. This ensures that he is under control and must stay focused on the task at hand.
- Go outside to the area that is deemed the bathroom spot.
- Let the pup sniff and investigate the area.
- When you see the pup getting ready to eliminate use your trigger word. Coax the pup.
- Once the pup has eliminated, you can offer him a treat and praise him.
Every time your puppy comes out of his crate, he should go outside to go to the bathroom. With consistency you will have your pup going on cue for you in no time. This trick is especially nice for cold and rainy days and nights or when you are on your way out the door and running late.
In the event that your puppy has an accident in the house and you are not present, there is nothing that you can do. Forget about it and chalk it up as your mistake, not the puppy's.
If you witness an accident, quickly pick up the pup and take him outside. If he continues on with his business once you are out, praise him. If he does not, you can coax him with your trigger word (see Elimination on Cue, above).
Be sure to go back inside and clean the area that the puppy has eliminated in with a cleaner that actually breaks down enzymes. Many cleaners mask the smell from us but not from the powerful olfactory senses of our dogs. Ask your local pet supply dealer about a good cleaner.

So what happened when fashion and beauty writer Sarah Bradbury took on The Great British Bake Off's week 3 challenge, bread week.
I'm a huge fan of the Great British Bake Off. From Baked Alaska Gate for poor Ian to the famous Lion from bread week last year. So when I found out I had THE bread week, I was elated. That was until I found out what I was making…
The first problem I encountered was that I was without scales. I probably should have thought about that before signing up for the Great British Fake Off challenges. But I love to bake and have since a young age. I'll never forget the time in my year 8 Food Technology class when I didn't realise that baking power also made things right. Cue my class mates using fish slices to salvage the overflowing brownies that were bubbling over the sides. To be fair, they were pretty good!
If I was at my family home, I'd be in my element with the scales a la Mary Berry but in my flat in Brixton, I am unfortunate without the most important part of baking. Quite literally, what a doughnut.
The second worry I gave myself was that I thought I'd guessed what I would be making, which was steamed buns. The type you can have pork in. But I was wrong. I would be making a 'dampfnudeln'. Which is like an iced bun but without the icing on top – thank you Mary.
I also hadn't quite set myself the time that was required. I'd literally be cooking along with the show and I was yet to know, at the time, what I would be making and having the ingredients in.
So I sat there and watched the show as I have done for the past 7 series and waited for that moment I would have been up. First the signature bake. So did some of them make a 'babka' or 'couronne'? But also, what are either of those?! Some signatures were over cooked, undercooked, we saw some raw bottoms and fudged timings. I felt a little bit smug that I wasn't overcome with these emotions or under such scrutiny from Paul and Mary but mostly, I was sad that I wasn't joining in like I really wanted to. I could have shed a tear like poor Candice.
And then, the technical challenge of bread week. Looking at me right in the face. Smug dampfnudeln.
But whilst they were sweating it, I was in my pjs – yes at 8:34pm! With my dinner on waiting for the sweat and tears to form. I saw that they didn't actually seem that difficult to make. I think I could have done it and I will.
Not to be defeated by GBBO, I ran (fine, walked) to my nearest M&S and Sainsburys (other supermarkets are available) in the search of a bun like the one that was made but I had no luck. I was gutted.
I have since then got myself some scales and I WILL complete a technical challenge. So watch this space.
To fill the void my dampfnudeln would have filled, I treated my team to a selection of treats from a well known supermarket which they were equally as happy about. Win win! And my buns went left untouched by Paul Hollywood's digits of doom. Result… I think.

Our Review
If you've been following the Hallmark Channel's adaptation of Janette Oke's When Calls the Heart series, then you'll be thrilled to find the third installment, When Calls the Heart: A Telling Silence available on DVD. There's something comforting about these simple, slowly-told stories, and while they're unlikely to rock your world or leave an indellible impression, it's nice to catch up with Elizabeth Thatcher (Erin Krakow) and see how things are going for her. A Telling Silence offers a return to the sweetness of the premiere movie, and continues her adventures as a teacher in the Canadian West.
This installment finds Coal Valley dealing with the loss of its church and Constable Jack Thornton (Daniel Lissing) reopening the investigation as to who burned it down. Widow Cat Montgomery has a suspicious quantity of whale oil in her shed - the very same obscure whale oil that was found at the scene of the crime. Has Jack nailed the culprit, or will Cat be able to clear her name? These questions are pressing, but not half as important as the town's desire to reclaim its spiritual center. They soon learn that gathering for worship has little to do with a physical building, and everything to do with coming together with sincerity and forgiveness.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth focuses her efforts on Rosaleen, an eight year old girl in her class who has been intermittently mute ever since she lost her father in the mine explosion. As she works to bond with Rosaleen and draw her out of her shell, Elizabeth learns the real reason the girl stopped talking. Also, there's a freaky-deaky kidnapping totally reminiscent of Little House on the Prairie, complete with a gruff town misfit of whom everyone thinks the worst and, of course, little non-talking Rosaleen.
With all of this excitement going on, it's hard to believe there's still time for Jack and Elizabeth to court one another, but there are a few sweet canoe rides and picnics squeezed in for good measure. We find them coming together as tenuous friends who would like to strengthen their bond. There are always plenty of misunderstandings and lots of drama to get in their way, but they remain the heart of the story, and one day they're bound to get together.
The series' slow, wholesome pacing combined with unlikely drama (seriously, does nothing go right in this town?) makes for an entertaining and comforting viewing experience. Whether you're a genuine fan of the books or simply enjoy a good Hallmark movie, When Calls the Heart hits the spot.

Deutsche Post-DHL Group CEO Frank Appel joined industry leaders in denouncing the economic policy of protectionism in a speech delivered at the company's annual general meeting this week, calling it "the wrong path, no matter where it is or what form it takes."
Many industry members – including CEO of Alibaba, Jack Ma, and the founder and chairman of FedEx, Fred Smith – have been outspoken about the stress that protectionist policies will bring to international trade, namely the impending trade war between the U.S. and China over threatened tariffs on certain goods and the ensuing chaos between the U.K. and E.U.-countries caused by Brexit.
Regardless of the current state of international trade, the DHL Group is still celebrating its "best results in the history of the company," boasting a 7.2 percent increase in earnings, before interest and taxes (EBIT), to €3.74 billion and a 5.4 percent increase in revenue to €60.4 billion in 2017.
Appel, who was named Air Cargo Executive of the Year by this magazine in at the end of 2016, said that growth in e-commerce was a key factor in boosting EBIT and revenue and plans to continue to capitalize on it, looking into 2018 and beyond. In light of the positive financial outlook, the company also proposed a dividend increase of 10 cents (or 9.5 percent) to the current value of $1.15 per share that will be effective by the end of April.
Appel affirmed his stance on trade policy with a nod to a familiar neo-political symbol: "Walls are not the solution. We want to make tomorrow better than today. To achieve this, we need to grow together even more."4 - Readers Like This Post

Glad to be A
IT IS an impossibly hot summer evening in St Louis, a city in the American Midwest best known for barbecues and blues music, and I'm driving round the streets of the town's Central West End wondering if this will be known one day as the place where the revolution began. In less than an hour I am to meet its leader, a young man whose face I have never seen though we've been talking for months. I know I shouldn't be this eager to greet him in person, to finally see what he looks like, but then again it's not every day you meet a young healthy man who is 100 per cent uninterested in sex.
In a world where lust can be bought in a pill and skin is the marketing tool du jour, being David Jay cannot be easy. At the age of 22 he has never had sex. He has never experienced sexual attraction towards another person and does not believe it will ever happen. There are many others who have similar stories to tell. They talk about growing up not being able to understand why everyone else seemed so interested in dating, kissing and touching; in experiencing the ritual of mating.
Until recently these people felt isolated, never suspecting others felt the same. But now, thanks in great part to an online forum founded by Jay, they are finding each other and identifying themselves with a common label. They call themselves asexual, and are coming out to parents and loved ones, declaring their asexuality to be as valid an orientation as being straight or gay. They …

ANKARA (Reuters) - The spokesman for President Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday slammed what he said was the United States' disregard for Turkey's legal process, adding Washington had made arbitrary comments and demands in the case of a detained pastor.
In a statement to Reuters, Ibrahim Kalin called on the United States to respect Turkey's judicial independence, one of Ankara's most pointed responses yet to criticism over its detention of evangelical Christian pastor Andrew Brunson.
"There is rule of law in Turkey and the Andrew Brunson case is a legal issue. There is an ongoing legal process related to this individual," Kalin said.
"It goes without saying that we find unacceptable the disregard of the legal process by the United States, which has been making certain demands."
His comments came after President Donald Trump's national security adviser John Bolton earlier told Reuters that Turkey made a "big mistake" in not releasing Brunson.
Brunson, who has lived in Turkey for two decades, has been detained for 21 months on terrorism charges, which he denies, and is now under house arrest.
Trump, who counts evangelical Christians among his core supporters, has become a vocal champion of the pastor's case, making him an unwitting flashpoint in the tension between two NATO allies.
"Every day that goes by that mistake continues, this crisis could be over instantly if they did the right thing as a NATO ally, part of the West, and release (him) ... without condition," Bolton said.
Kalin, dismissed those statement as "arbitrary" comments and demands. He also hit back against the United States over an investigation into state-owned lender Halkbank for potential Iran-sanctions busting.
Turkey wants the U.S. Treasury to halt the investigation. Halkbank has said all of its transactions were legal. A U.S. court this year sentenced one of its executives to 32 months in prison for involvement in a scheme to avoid Iran sanctions.
"It is unacceptable that certain baseless and false allegations are made against Halkbank to weaken this public bank," Kalin said.
"It seems that the purpose of those steps is to discredit respectable institutions and persons, and to punish them unjustly rather than discover the truth."

My mother grew up on a farm and married my father, who was a teacher. She brought some of her customs back into our family. So every year, mainly in the late Fall we ordered a half pig from the butcher. The highlight of the year was the "Schlachtfest' at our house!
If you are unfamiliar, Kesselfleisch is boiled Pork that is used to process the Hausmacher or homemade Wurst.
To grind the meat, I found the Ninja Blender is the best choice. This is what I also use to blend the raw meat for the Leberkäse

There was a large boiler in the basement, as you see below. The pig was already cut in pieces. We placed the meat parts in a hot water broth with root vegetables, like carrots, celery, onions, bay leaves, juniper berries, salt, and peppercorns and let it boil until done. We fixed our plates with the cooked meat. The side was a Sauerkraut and a slice of Bauernbrot.
Kesselsuppe is the broth in the kettle, where we boiled our liver and blood wurst. Sometimes we let one or two burst on purpose. That, we would eat sometimes with small Spätzle in the broth also called Riebelesuppe
Large pieces of the pig were boiling in a broth with root vegetables, like carrots, celery, onions, bay leaves, juniper berries, salt, and pepper corns
Wurst production
The boiled pork was chopped or cut in cubes and seasoned. After eating our Kesselfleisch (boiled pork), we prepared the Hausmacher (homemade wurst) The cooked meat was turned through a meat grinder, then we added more seasoning depending on the wurst mixture, filling it into the natural casings or jars.
Smoking process
Our butcher had a smoke room, so we brought our goods to him. After several days of cold smoking, we hung up our Wurst in the basement where there is a constant temperature of about 40 to 45F.

Decided to save Arjun for another project: Bhushan Kumar
Says Bhushan Kumar, co-producer of Soni Razdan's next directorial in which Rampal got replaced by Ali Fazal; also cites reasons for the sudden development.bollywood Updated: Mar 07, 2015, 12:39 IST
According to recent reports, actor Ali Fazal replaced Arjun Rampal, in Soni Razdan's next directorial that is being jointly produced by Mahesh Bhatt and Bhushan Kumar. Although this sudden replacement has raised several questions, Bhushan reveals that the decision was mutual, and in fact, Arjun will work in another film with them instead.
Throwing light on the issue, he says, "Arjun is a dedicated actor and is extremely conscious about production values and budgets of the films he commits to. In fact, we had a great experience working on Roy. However, for this period film, the Bhatts decided to bring down the overall budget, and we mutually decided to save Arjun for one of our later projects that we are planning."
According to the original plan, Arjun was to play the lead, and was supposed to start shooting for the film this month, alongside Kalki Koechlin. But there's no bad blood between the makers and Arjun. Bhushanadds, "For me, Arjun is a good friend, and we always look forward to working with him."

ATHLETICS: Hall is No. 8
Former UMBC AD takes over at SIUE
Matt Kamp|The Intelligencer
EDWARDSVILLE – It didn't take long for Tim Hall and his family to get into the Edwardsville community.
"We have a healthy debate going on in the Hall household over which custard place is better, Bobby's or Annie's," Hall said.
And with that, Hall introduced himself to Edwardsville.
On the eighth day on the eighth month of the year, Hall was officially introduced as SIUE's eighth athletic director.
"There's something interesting going on with that number today," said SIUE Chancellor Randy Pembrook, who presented Hall with a Cougars hat and scarf. "I think it's an omen."
The man now in charge of the eight men's and eight women's team is Hall.
In front of a packed house of family, SIUE administration and coaches, Hall laid out the groundwork for his plan to take SIUE to the next level in athletics and in the classroom.
"I would like to create a regionally-prominent, nationally-respected and best-practices intercollegiate athletics program," Hall said. "One committed to academic success and student-athletes well-being. Once committed to competing for conference championships – OVC and MAC – while engaging all stakeholders to a higher level of involvement with SIUE and SIUE athletics.
"We're going to be known for having a national reputation for service to our athletes with diversity and inclusion at the forefront. Athletics is going to continue to be an integral part of the SIUE campus culture. SIUE student-athletes will continue to graduate at a high level and form a strong sense of connection with the institution and athletic program."
Hall was hired on July 22 to take over for Brad Hewitt, who retired June 30 after working with the university for 30 years, including the past 17 years as athletic director. Jaci DeClue served as acting athletic director until Hall was hired.

SIUE Athletic Directors
Harry Gallatin (1967-72)*
Bob Guelker (1972-78)*
Ed Bigham (1978-83)
Jim Buck (Acting) (1983-85)
Lynn Lashbrook (1985-88)
Cindy Jones (1988-02)*
Brad Hewitt (2002-19)
Tim Hall (2019-present)
*Members the SIUE Athletics Hall of Fame.
After serving as athletic director at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County for the past six years, Hall makes the move back west to a university that he believes offers plenty of potential to be nationally known.
"When people say, 'Who does mid-major athletics the right way.' I want them to say, 'SIUE athletics,'" Hall said.
Hall's move to Edwardsville reconnects him with Pembrook, who he worked with at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
Hall served as athletic director at UMKC from 2007-13, while Pembrook was the dean at the Conservatory of Music and Dance.
"He's had great success with athletics and student-academic success. That's really important at SIUE, where we expect our student-athletes to do really well on the field and in the classroom," Pembrook said.
At UMBC, Hall oversaw the move of the Retrievers program into the $85 million UMBC Event Center, while the men's basketball team became the first No. 16 seed to beat a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in 2018 and the men's soccer team advanced to the NCAA semifinals in 2014. Last academic year, the school won a record four conference championships.
In the classroom, 10 of 17 schools achieved at least a 3.0 GPA in 2018-19 and the cumulative GPA of student-athletes was 3.09.
"It's a great institution. We had a tremendous amount of success there," Hall said.
But Hall's focus now turns to SIUE.
The Cougars compete in the OVC in all sports but wrestling, men's and women's soccer – which are in the MAC.
"What we do here is a privilege," Hall said. "The Cougars logo never comes off and we are going to represent the university in a positive fashion at all times."
Prior to his tenures at UMKC and UMBC, Hall served in various roles at Youngstown State in Ohio, Saint Xavier University in Illinois, Eastern Kentucky University and Kent State University in Ohio.
A native of northeast Ohio, Hall earned his bachelor's degree in sports administration from the University of Toledo in 1994 and a master's in sports administration from Kent State University in 1998.
During Thursday's press conference, Hall thanked Hewitt for the work he had done and called it "a launching pad" for the next step. It will be an important one for SIUE.
"We're going to have pride in who we are. We aren't going to spend time lamenting who we are not," Hall said. "This is a special place with special people and we are going to have a lot of pride in where we are going."

The MICA CR-C5 and CR-C3 chargers provide a new concept for MICA lamp users. The charger racks are made of durable aluminium and are equipped with an integrated power supply that converts 100 - 240VAC mains voltage into the 12VDC voltage the rack supply rail uses. All you need is a screwdriver to install these easy-to-use charger racks. One end of the charger rack features a socket for the easy linking of the next charger rack.
MICA CR-C5/C3 charger racks are equipped with a set of chargers for 5/3 MICA lamps or MICA HB – batteries pre-installed. All you have to do is mount the rack on the wall. MICA ® CR-C5/C3 protects batteries from overcharging. The racks can also be used with a variety of power supplies. For example, in a fire truck where the charger rack is primarily powered by 100 - 240VAC supply voltage and also by 12VDC or 24VDC battery power from the vehicle itself. These charger racks automatically switch between voltages. The dual input voltage versions of the charger racks are the MICA CR-C3 VAC/VDC and the MICA CR-C5 VAC/VDC.

Revision as of 03:20, April 22, 2018
William Schornstein and his wife, Wilhelmina, were born in Germany and immigrated directly to St. Paul in 1873. William worked as a bartender for several years before moving to the predominantly German Wilson/Bates neighborhood in 1880. In the summer of 1884, he commissioned St. Paul architect Augustus F. Gauger to design the present building, which was completed in the fall of 1884 at an estimated cost of $5000. In the summer of 1884, he commissioned St. Paul architect Augustus F. Gauger to design the present building,which was completed in the fall of 1884 at an estimated cost of $5000. The new Schorenstein Grocery and Saloon originally housed a grocery store in the main storefront,a saloon in the rear storefront (entry at Bates), the Schornstein's apartment on the second floor,and a meeting hall on the third floor. The one-story store attached to the west side was used by Schornstein's brother-in-law as a harness shop. Sometime after the turn of the century, the second floor was divided into two apartments. William Schornstein operated the saloon and grocery store until his retirement in 1910 when his son, Otto, assumed control of the business. In the 2000s Schornstein garage was vacant for many years. Across the street new townhouses were built.In 2014 the housing redevelopment authority of St. Paul applied for a wrecking permit for the buildings. Neighborhood residents once again united in an effort to save the Schornstein garage and several other buildings in Dayton's Bluff. Jane Prince's election to the St. Paul City Council made a positive difference in the rescue efforts. Open houses were held, rehab funds were offered by the City. In 2016, a young couple wrote a proposal for the rehab of the buildings which was accepted by St. Paul's HRA. They intend to live and work in the buildings. The Schornstein garage will be featured on the Minneapolis/St. Paul Home tour on April 27-28th 2018.

searching for the sound in the Record-Eagle
I'm in the newspaper!
"I use the Grateful Dead as a connective theme for several reasons. It helps make our religious message relevant and accessible. We can derive wisdom from the Grateful Dead by first realizing that they were not all wasted drug users and secondly, there can be a human approach to religion. Because it comes from a 'surprising' source, people may be open to this wisdom in a different way than they would be to the usual Sunday sermon." - slight misquoted in the Traverse City Record-Eagle, full text here

Father of Oriya literature, all but forgotten
Though fêted as the father of modern Oriya literature, Fakir Mohan Senapati's relics now lie neglected, his contributions forgotten.books Updated: Sep 14, 2007, 16:58 IST
He is the man credited with fanning the resurgence that led to the formation of India's first linguistic state, the man fêted as the father of modern Oriya literature. Yet, Fakir Mohan Senapati's home here lies neglected, and the garden he so lovingly tended has been vandalised.
His legacy is being whittled away, lament researchers, remembering the contribution of Fakir Mohan, or Vyasakabi as he was known to modern-day Orissa society.
"Mo matrubhasa mote shrestha" (My mother tongue is best for me), wrote Vyasakabi, who lived from 1843 till 1918. The words were the stepping stones to Orissa becoming India's first linguistic state in 1936 and Vyasakabi one of the architects of Oriya renaissance.
But if his house in Mallikashpur village of Balasore district, 200 km from the state capital Bhubaneswar, is anything to go by, the sense of pride he instilled has long been forgotten.
In a bitter irony, his home had been lying in a dilapidated condition for long before it was reconstructed and converted some years ago into a library and a museum - but not in his memory. It has changed beyond recognition and houses a few statues of some gods but nothing to indicate that it is Vyasakabi's house.
"The renovation of the house, which comes under the culture department, itself speaks about incompetence. Those who have little knowledge about conservation changed its original characteristics and the design of its roof, doors and the façade," pointed out heritage researcher Prasanta Kumar Padhi.
"The central courtyard has Cuddapah tiles that were never used in Fakir Mohan's time. Water seepage is visible in many places," he added.
Literature lovers have demanded that the house be converted into a museum in his memory by collecting memorabilia associated with Vyasakabi, similar to the work being carried out to conserve Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's house in Oriya Bazar, Cuttack.
The garden tells a similar tale of neglect.
Shantikanan, the garden he built and in which he penned some of his works, has been vandalised. The original engravings are gone and in its place are written graffiti.
The Balasore civic authorities had acquired three acres of land from Fakir Mohan's granddaughter with financial assistances from the Fakir Mohan Smruti Committee and Fakir Mohan Sahitya Parishad.
"But leaving only one acre for Fakir Mohan's memory, a primary school and a housing colony have been constructed by the municipality. All the while the Fakir Mohan Sahitya Parishad has been searching for a piece of land to do something for his memory," Harischandra Behera, president of the Parishad, told IANS.
"Though a gardener was appointed to take care of the garden, none is present to take care of it. It is only a safe place for anti-social elements now," he alleged.
Noted poet Brajanath Rath said there had been a longstanding demand to declare Shantikanan and the house as tourist spots but the state tourism department has shown no willingness for that.
"Though discussions in this regard with the tourism director have reached a final stage, it is yet to be implemented," said Rath.
Balasore Collector Alekh Chandra Padhiary said a proposal to declare Shantikanan a tourist place was underway.

A lifetime of advocacy for blind and vision impaired
Posted on: Fri 11 Jan 2019
Rosemary and Malcolm Penn are a couple who were very well loved and respected around South Australia, and spent much of their lives advocating for people living with a vision impairment or blindness.
