a gun sight targeted map against people who have differing viewpoints.. one of them was Gabrielle Giffords. Sarah Palin should be prosecuted or at least dealt with some how for promoting this but I doubt it will happen. Take a look for yourselves right here ... http://www.clevelandleader.com/node/15645 Don't forget Bush. People like you and the media blame him for everything else. He must have had a hand in there somewhere. The US is like a teenager: lots of issues and convinced only their ideas are correct..... PartisanSheep Ok so I took a nap and an hour later I came back on here. WOW. The shooter is an admitted communist who hates God. Yet all you tardies are still clamoring away on your chinese made computer about right vs left. Please stop breathing the same air as me. I don't want to catch your stupidity. Why can't these nut cases go after the ones who deserve it? Always an innocent has to die. Clearly Jared Lee Loughner is just another American lunatic with a gun I live in Tucson and have often shopped at the Safeway where the shooting happened. I have several friends who live just a few blocks away. I can tell you that no one except a nutjob like the shooter reacted to the news with anything other than shock, horror, and grief. The media likes to play up the political differences among us because it's good ratings–but most of us here like Gabby Giffords personally if not politically. She is a genuinely nice person with personal integrity, and while I wished she hadn't been re-elected, I told my husband at the time, "If we have to have a liberal rep, at least it's Gabby!" Before I even heard the details, that so many had been hurt and several killed, I was in tears. Tucson is a large metro area with a small-town feel. Believe me, the shooter isn't getting any sympathy around here. mamatat Dr. Biddle, he also listed Peter Pan among the books he liked, and no one's harping on that... In 20 years, right wing killers have murdered several hundred "government workers" and their families and friends. Think of Oklahoma City. Think of the IRS agent killed by the right wing pilot. Think of the 3 police officers murdered in Philadelphia by a man who believed right wing radio's assertion that Obama would take his guns. And now the Tea Party is 'shocked'? After the campaigns they ran??? Who are they kidding??? http://hillbuzz.org/2011/01/08/my-congresswoman-voted-against-nancy-pelosi-and-is-now-dead-to-me-eerie-daily-kos-hit-piece-on-gabrielle-giffords-just-two-days-before-assassination-attempt-on-her/ Linden & Doug You reported for over an hour that the congress woman was dead, now she is in critical condition?

love the stage, Mr. Hyman paid the bills with television work — soap operas and police dramas, “Hallmark Hall of Fame” and “The United States Steel Hour,” and made-for-TV movies. Most memorably, he played Russell Huxtable, the father of Dr. Cliff Huxtable, in 40 episodes of Mr. Cosby’s hugely popular NBC situation comedy about an upper-middle-class black family, broadcast from 1984 to 1992. Although he was only 11 years older than Mr. Cosby, Mr. Hyman was an authoritative father figure, sometimes reciting Shakespeare at length — in scenes especially tailored to Mr. Hyman’s classical talents — when sage advice was required for his son. But in a stage career that bridged oceans, languages and racial sensibilities, he also played the traditionally white roles of Hamlet, Macbeth and Lear in New York and London and the black roles of Othello, Eugene O’Neill’s Emperor Jones and the chauffeur in Alfred Uhry’s “Driving Miss Daisy” in Norway, Denmark and Sweden. There he electrified audiences and critics performing in their native languages, albeit with an American accent. He was inducted into the Theater Hall of Fame in New York in 1997. Mr. Hyman appeared on and off Broadway in a score of productions over six decades, a lifetime of Beckett, O’Neill, Pinter, Albee and lesser lights as well as Shakespeare and Ibsen. And for nearly as long, he worked part of each year on the stages of Norway, where he had homes in Oslo and the fjord country, refuges from what he called the pressures, pleasures and racial barriers of New York. “It used to be that casting black actors in traditionally white roles seemed daring, like marching in the street, and maybe things have gotten better and maybe they haven’t,” Mr. Hyman told The New York Times in 1991. “But just the fact that people still ask that question — should we or shouldn’t we? — proves that things have not come a long way. “In Norway, where I have performed for three decades, I have played a Norwegian archbishop and no one has raised a question,” he added. “Here I am almost 65 years old and I’m still saying that all roles should be available to all actors of talent, regardless of race. Why should I be deprived of seeing a great black actress play Hedda Gabler?” With young contemporaries like James Earl Jones, Sidney Poitier, Harry Belafonte and Morgan Freeman, Mr. Hyman was a major influence in developing black theater in America. He appeared in black-cast productions on Broadway and in regional theaters and was a founder of the American Shakespeare Festival in Stratford, Conn., which began in 1955 and often cast black actors in customarily white leading roles. Skirting racial barriers that had long limited the opportunities for black actors in America, Mr. Hyman lived and worked in England for five years and spent parts of each year in Scandinavia, mostly in Norway, for more than a half century. He became fluent in Norwegian and Danish, spoke passable Swedish, and performed in Oslo, Copenhagen and Stockholm in plays by Shakespeare, Ibsen and O’Neill. After his debut at the National Theater in Bergen in “Othello” in 1963, Mr. Hyman, the first American to perform for Norwegians in their own language, was hailed by Norwegian critics, inundated with offers to stay on and besieged by fans from across a land of reserved people rarely given to emotional displays. After 50 consecutive sellouts, he was also drawing international attention. “Even speaking Norwegian with an American accent has not diminished Mr. Hyman’s achievement for Norway’s critics and its theatrically sophisticated audiences,” a correspondent for The Christian Science Monitor wrote. “Along with the eloquence, dignity and towering emotional force of his characterization, the clarity of Mr. Hyman’s diction has won him admiration.” George Earle Hyman was born in Rocky Mount, N.C., on Oct. 11, 1926, one of four children of Zachariah and Maria Plummer Hyman, who were both teachers. The family moved to Brooklyn when he was a boy. He graduated with honors from Franklin K. Lane High School, where he studied French and Latin. Captivated by a production of Ibsen’s “Ghosts” that he saw in Brighton Beach, he resolved to be an actor. He devoured plays by Ibsen and Shakespeare, memorized parts easily and at 16 performed on Broadway in “Run, Little Chillun.” His first Broadway hit, in 1944, was “

Anna Lucasta,” Philip Yordan’s play about a Polish family, turned into a story about blacks, with an American Negro Theater cast that also included Alice Childress, Hilda Simms and Canada Lee. It ran 957 performances and was one of Broadway’s longest-running nonmusical plays at the time. After it closed in 1946, Mr. Hyman toured with the company in America and Europe. Finding little work on Broadway in the early ’50s, he moved to London and over several years performed 13 roles in 10 Shakespeare plays, including the lead in a televised “Hamlet.” He played Othello in 1957 with the American Shakespeare Festival in Connecticut, and that year visited Norway for the first time. He was enthralled by a nation with an almost colorblind perspective on race. “The first time I stepped on that soil I fell in love with it,” Mr. Hyman told The Associated Press in 1988. “I felt I’d been there before.” Mr. Hyman, who never married, lived at the Lillian Booth Actors Home in Englewood. He leaves no immediate survivors. He appeared in a number of made-for-television films and movies, including “Macbeth” (1968), “Julius Caesar” (1979) and “Coriolanus” (1979). He also provided voices for numerous episodes of the 1980s animated TV series “ThunderCats.” He was nominated for a Tony for his 1980 Broadway role in Edward Albee’s “The Lady From Dubuque,” and for an Emmy in 1986 for his “Cosby Show” work. He won a CableACE Award in 1983 for best actor in a drama for “Long Day’s Journey Into Night”; an Outstanding Pioneer Award in 1980 from the Audience Development Committee, which recognized achievements by black theater artists; and the Medal of St. Olav from the King of Norway in 1988 for his work there. SOURCE: The New York Times MEL TILLIS, COUNTRY STAR KNOWN FOR HIS SONGS AND HIS STUTTER By BILL FRISKICS-WARREN Mel Tillis at his theater in Branson, Mo., in 1998. Credit Mel Tillis Theater Mel Tillis, whose career as a country singer and the writer of enduring hit songs like “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town” earned him a place in the Country Music Hall of Fame and a National Medal of Arts — but who was equally well known for the stutter he employed to humorous and self-deprecating effect onstage — died on Sunday in Ocala, Fla. He was 85. Mr. Tillis “battled intestinal issues since early 2016 and never fully recovered,” his publicist, Don Murry Grubbs, said in a statement. The suspected cause of death was respiratory failure, he said. Mr. Tillis found a way to turn his speech impediment into an asset by using his ready smile and innate comedic timing to get his audiences to laugh along with him. He stuttered his way to regular appearances on television talk shows and to clowning bit parts in Hollywood movies. He even went so far as to make the nickname Stutterin’ Boy, conferred upon him by the singer Webb Pierce, the title of his autobiography (written with Walter Wager and published in 1984), and to have it painted on the side of his tour bus. He also named his personal airplane Stutter One and referred to his female backup singers as the Stutterettes. Mr. Tillis stuttered only when he spoke, not when he sang. His resonant baritone was suited to both traditional country and pop-leaning material and was the vehicle for upward of 70 Top 40 country hits. His stutter might not have figured so prominently in his career had he focused exclusively on songwriting, or had the country entertainer Minnie Pearl, for whom he played rhythm guitar in the 1950s, not asked him to perform some of his songs in her show. Mr. Tillis was named entertainer of the year by the Country Music Association in 1976. Credit Associated Press “She’d get me off to one side and say, ‘Melvin, you’re gonna at least have to announce your songs, and then thank the folks,’” Mr. Tillis said, recalling Pearl’s response to his hesitancy about speaking in public, in an interview published in the newsletter of the International Songwriters Association in 2002. “I was so bashful and scared,” he went on, “and she said, ‘If they laugh they’ll be laughing with you, not against you.’ And

those caught in the mire, the message becomes one of grievance that insurmountably powerful forces have put them there and plaintive expectation that it is somebody else’s responsibility to ease the experience. In this context, Olson’s approach to changing the law is the legal equivalent of a welfare state. In the welfare case, the aristocracy treats the underclass as a client base for whom it will determine just awards to redistribute from a shrinking productive class. In the legal case, the underclass is characterized not by its economic powerlessness, but its political powerlessness, and forms the client base for the aristocracy to impose its vision of a just and moral society, shrinking the boundaries of self-government. In both cases, expediency creates something selfish out of the impulse toward philanthropy. While the social advocate and the courtroom advocate have the joy of fighting on behalf of their clients, they deprive the masses of their God-given right to the “Pursuit of Happiness,” as our Declaration of Independence puts it, because the advocates are both doing all the work and shutting off opportunities for those who differ.

That’s a given, right? But as kids get older, it can be harder to know what your kids are doing that could hurt them. And one of the latest concerns a lot of parents of teens and pre-teens have is about the dramatic increase in vaping among young people. An addiction specialist at the Betty Ford Center here in Southern California, calls it vaping among young people “the fastest growing substance abuse issue among that population." In an investigation by our reporting partners , 10News found that according to the California Department of Education, the state average of 11 th graders, kids in the 6 th grade, using e-cigarettes these days is 10 percent. You might say it’s only 10 percent or you might say 10 percent is a lot, and statewide it means tens of thousands. And the 10News report found that in some San Diego County school districts, itt's higher. The Department of Education shows that Coronado, Carlsbad and San Dieguito school districts were much higher than the state average, with the amount of these young teens or pre-teens using e-cigarettes, is as high as 23 percent. And remember that it is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to buy e-cigarettes in California, along with any other tobacco product. So how are kids getting the vaping devices they are using? That’s obviously a good question and parents who don't know the answer, need to look harder to find it. Read more about what YOU can do as a parent from some experts . There are a lot of natural treatments for diabetes. Instead of arbitrarily listing listing them all off, I want to give you the concepts and mechanisms behind how these natural diabetes treatments work. To do this we will also expand a little bit on the concepts from the last post; Can You Get Cured Diabetes? We will go into more detail so you can how these treatments fit into the broader concept of improving cellular function. With this you have more context for how these treatments are working. Specifically, we will look at the role of toxins, the role of digestion, the role of inflammation, diet, herbs, and home blood glucose monitoring. It is also important to discuss how this works together and how you can use these to improve your blood sugar control. Now, if you read the last blog article, you should understand at least in principal how you can "cure your diabetes." In that post, we discussed this idea of improving cellular function. The idea of improving cellular function to improving blood sugar control and diabetes is a newer concept but also has significant evidence to support it. Toxins are all around us. They are

you gain your imagery, but there does seem to be a story behind the imagery and how's that brought about? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: Well, one way in which I do it is I try to pinpoint it. I think that when I'm choosing images I have a general idea if some of the images are dealing with sexuality or with the idea of women or, in the last body of work, trying to create a kind of floating world that's very sensual. Then I think what I do because of my knowledge and tying into even American culture is I think I can respond to things that might be archetypical images. I know that if I'm choosing this that I can direct the viewer into my interpretation of the story. So I can choose an image and develop an image that will put a spin in the direction that I want it to go. In the last body — I could go, all right, well, I want the women to be in the water, but then how can I make it more ethereal, how can I make it more about an atmospheric quality, and maybe even a state of mind? And then I could tie into that ocean and sea life, and the peacefulness that comes with that, and then I could incorporate the use of the octopus or seaweed or things that are floating. And then through background colors and undulations, I can direct a certain kind of feeling. I think they're images that I know people will respond to, but I also try not to use a clichéd image. So there's a balance between using something that's stupidly obvious and directing somebody into a thought that they wouldn't necessarily think of immediately on their own, but suddenly they're there. So I can do that with images and ideas of juxtaposing two images that are very different, but then suddenly you're making up a story about what these two might have to do with each other. And so I think it's manipulation in the same way that an author might manipulate, or even a movie, might manipulate your feelings. And, well, if I do this, and this, and this, at the end they're all going to be crying. And sometimes it's very obvious they have been manipulated and other times it's not, but I think that's, in a sense, what I'm doing with imagery. MR. LLOYD: And do you think that an author — since we're talking about this narrative structure — that an author would shy away from the use of a clichéd image in literature, as well? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: I think they will shy away from a clichéd image if they have information and are good at it; they're going to know that's not the direction they want to put somebody. Or if they're going to use the cliché, they're going to use it successfully in a way that puts a twist on it so that they're not just coming up with the obvious plot that you could break down, "Oh, this is how plots go," and it's a happy ending or he dies in the end or he's a hero. I mean, how do you manipulate the ideas of narrative so that they're interesting and not something that your viewers have seen before? You know, you want to give them new information but based on things that they would respond to and maybe in an instinctual or archetypical way. MR. LLOYD: You also may choose your imagery in order to, as you said, not overstate the obvious kind of thing. In the last show the narrative had to do with gender, sexuality, the form of the urinal, water imagery, all of these different things. You have a wide range of images to choose from in your search, yet you didn't choose ones that were blatantly sexual or on the side of the obvious. Right? MR. LLOYD: And that's a very refined process that you're dealing with there, so how do you come about that process? Is it through a long period of thought? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: Part of it's a long period of thought, and then it might be that I will get a series of images, including some of the ones that are obvious that I then, through the process of eliminating, I'll tell myself: No, that one's not going to work for these reasons or that one's too — we were using this word when I was describing things "twee" which is too sweet, or I actually started painting one and in the midst of it, it took on a fairy kind of quality, which definitely was not a direction I wanted to go. So I just tossed the piece, because it was, "Oh, wrong way." It was close enough that it could have gone the right way, but somehow, in the painting process, it started to go wrong and then I just wasn't going to continue. But I think there's

So I just tossed the piece, because it was, "Oh, wrong way." It was close enough that it could have gone the right way, but somehow, in the painting process, it started to go wrong and then I just wasn't going to continue. But I think there's
a process of elimination that I go through and a dialogue with myself, of how this will work, and what is that saying, and that's how I come about it. MR. LLOYD: And within the parameters of the curatorial ideas here, you have addressed gender, identity, and sexuality — we've discussed that — some earlier in the interview. Have you ever addressed any other social issues — ethnicity or race, or anything like that — in your work? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: Not specifically. MR. LLOYD: Are there artists within the world of ceramics that do that in a way that you admire? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: I would say that I have a hard time with things that deal with the ideas of race and even ethnicity, because I think that it's hard to do that well. And it pinpoints so much on the idea of a specific — be it an American Indian or a black artist. It's hard to do it well. If somebody can pull it off — I can think of a few people — maybe not ceramic artists that have. The New York painter — I don't know the name, but he painted the kind of a black rap stars in kind of a northern renaissance technique. Do you know how I mean? MR. LLOYD: I can't think of his name right now. MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: But you've seen — MR. LLOYD: But I have seen them. MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: Yes, and I think that has dealt with race in an interesting way because it ties so much into art history, and the craft of the painting, it kind of imparts a meaning to it. But I don't think it applies for me. I can think of some people that have done it well, but a lot of times it just falls flat on its face. So I think that when you're dealing with that, again, you have to avoid all the kind of clichéd images that are going to get you into trouble. MR. LLOYD: One of the questions that we were supposed to address in this interview is: Do you feel that your work is in any way distinctly American? Well, do you? Or do you think of it in some other terms as your work or as something that belongs to something else? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: I think of it as — well, I would have to say I'm an American, so there's going to have to be some outside factors that I can't even pinpoint historically or just socially. I don't think I'm an expert enough in the idea of what that is, but I think that, because I am American, there is probably an American sensibility to it. Do I think of my artwork as American? No, but I do think of it as my work. I think if you took a broader view away, as an art historian, and looked at it, you probably could pinpoint some things that were American traits within it. But I don't feel like I'm expert enough in the field to say that I would see it as distinctly American, or even, in some cases, Californian. Or I know that you can even get in regional areas. So I would say I'm making my work, I'm exploring ideas that I think are important. There's probably something that could be attributed to it as being American, but I can't pinpoint it myself. MR. LLOYD: So the qualities of your work that seem to be the strongest are its relationship to your investigation of painting, its narrative and imagery, and your relationship to the community of artists that you grew up in and developed in, which is Los Angeles. But you don't think of yourself as a Los Angeles artist. Or do you? MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: I mean, I think of myself as an artist that lives in Los Angeles and makes work, but I wouldn't say that I'm a Los Angeles artist. MR. LLOYD: Well, I think of this as a question: it's not distinctly American, and it's not distinctively of a region. MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: Yes, and I'm not distinctively a craft artist. MR. LLOYD: And you're not distinctively a craft artist — you are an artist. MR. LLOYD: All right and that's where we'll stop. MS. KOLODZIEJSKI: Thank you, Frank.

currently undergoing a return to play protocol and skated under the supervision of #Canucks medical staff today. — Vancouver Canucks (@Canucks) September 14, 2018 Fast-forward to today. Though there are still those who might cast a suspicious eye at the years remaining on Roussel’s contract, few continue to dispute his overall value to the team—or that his $3 million salary represents a bargain and in less than a calendar year, Roussel has proven himself to the Vancouver fanbase. The Tangibles A glance at other players signed to similar deals—including Andre Burakovsky, Leo Komarov, and Vancouver’s own Jay Beagle—highlights just how wrong the initial takes on Roussel’s contract were. Roussel made his Canuck debut on October 13 against the Florida Panthers—and he scored the tying goal on a penalty shot in what ended up being a 3-2 victory. This triumphant start was not a sign of things to come, however—at least not immediately. Roussel managed to put up just two more points in the month of October—including a section of eight pointless games in a row. Despite that rather cold start, Roussel’s quarterly stats still look rather consistent—he hovered at or around a 0.5 point-per-game pace during each segment of the season. From Dobber’s Frozen Tools Streakiness is to be expected from a middle-six winger—and Roussel did indeed suffer two additional stints of zero points in five games throughout the season—and it’s important to note that, despite ample time in the Canucks’ top-six, Roussel was always intended to fill a checking line role. Roussel’s point-per-game pace of 0.48 ties him for 173rd overall among NHL forwards who played more than 25 games—at the low-end of third-line production. Of course, there are a couple of important pieces of context that make Roussel’s numbers look a little more impressive. Roussel played on one of the lowest-scoring teams in the league. As far as the Canucks’ roster goes, Roussel was a top-six talent—he ranked fifth in both assists and total scoring, and sixth in terms of points-per-game. Aside from Brock Boeser and the oft-injured Sven Baertschi, Roussel was the team’s most consistent offensive threat on the wing. Roussel’s rate of production is even more remarkable when put into the context of his ice-time—which was, in a word, limited throughout the season. Overall, Roussel ranked 18th on the team in average ice-time at just 13:46 per game. He also played the majority of this time at even-strength, picking up an average of 0:52 of shorthanded time per game and a scant three seconds of powerplay time.

currently undergoing a return to play protocol and skated under the supervision of #Canucks medical staff today. — Vancouver Canucks (@Canucks) September 14, 2018 Fast-forward to today. Though there are still those who might cast a suspicious eye at the years remaining on Roussel’s contract, few continue to dispute his overall value to the team—or that his $3 million salary represents a bargain and in less than a calendar year, Roussel has proven himself to the Vancouver fanbase. The Tangibles A glance at other players signed to similar deals—including Andre Burakovsky, Leo Komarov, and Vancouver’s own Jay Beagle—highlights just how wrong the initial takes on Roussel’s contract were. Roussel made his Canuck debut on October 13 against the Florida Panthers—and he scored the tying goal on a penalty shot in what ended up being a 3-2 victory. This triumphant start was not a sign of things to come, however—at least not immediately. Roussel managed to put up just two more points in the month of October—including a section of eight pointless games in a row. Despite that rather cold start, Roussel’s quarterly stats still look rather consistent—he hovered at or around a 0.5 point-per-game pace during each segment of the season. From Dobber’s Frozen Tools Streakiness is to be expected from a middle-six winger—and Roussel did indeed suffer two additional stints of zero points in five games throughout the season—and it’s important to note that, despite ample time in the Canucks’ top-six, Roussel was always intended to fill a checking line role. Roussel’s point-per-game pace of 0.48 ties him for 173rd overall among NHL forwards who played more than 25 games—at the low-end of third-line production. Of course, there are a couple of important pieces of context that make Roussel’s numbers look a little more impressive. Roussel played on one of the lowest-scoring teams in the league. As far as the Canucks’ roster goes, Roussel was a top-six talent—he ranked fifth in both assists and total scoring, and sixth in terms of points-per-game. Aside from Brock Boeser and the oft-injured Sven Baertschi, Roussel was the team’s most consistent offensive threat on the wing. Roussel’s rate of production is even more remarkable when put into the context of his ice-time—which was, in a word, limited throughout the season. Overall, Roussel ranked 18th on the team in average ice-time at just 13:46 per game. He also played the majority of this time at even-strength, picking up an average of 0:52 of shorthanded time per game and a scant three seconds of powerplay time. A more focused look at Roussel’s offence is possible using the context of his deployment—he rates just outside the top 120 league forwards in terms of his points-per-60. Though leaguewide stats for even-strength points-per-60 aren’t available, Roussel had a personal rate of 2.24 points for every 60 minutes of even-strength time—which should place him easily within the bounds of top-six production. From Corsica.Hockey It should also be noted that—despite what seemed like ample time beside Bo Horvat—Roussel’s Quality of Teammates, based on Corsi For %, was the worst on the team. His Quality of Competition was right around the middle of the road.

came to his impact on Bo Horvat. Roussel has been Horvat's best winger period this season. They've been dominant as a duo and Roussel complements Bo's transition game with his underrated playmaking. I can't wrap my head around why you'd put Schaller in that spot instead pic.twitter.com/3gtkJQsFQI — Harman Dayal (@harmandayal2) February 4, 2019 Breaking down why Antoine Roussel is one of the leagues most underrated playmakers. Yes, you read that right. Playmaker. https://t.co/SRiJzoJVDr… pic.twitter.com/R1oiowhNuL — Harman Dayal (@harmandayal2) March 8, 2019 Unfortunately, that evidence wasn’t enough to convince coach Travis Green to consistently place Roussel on Horvat’s wing. Roussel’s importance to the team can be measured by his Point Share—as determined by Hockey-Reference.com—which came in at 2.9, good for eighth overall on the team. This means that Roussel was the eighth-most important player when it came to the Canucks’ success in the standings—and the relatively-even split between his Offensive and Defensive Point Shares suggests that his contributions were of the all-around variety. The Intangibles All of this talk of statistics certainly paints Antoine Roussel in a positive light—and that’s saying something, considering he’s also a player that brings a bounty of intangible qualities to the table. A November article by Ben Kuzma in The Province was titled “Recuperating Roussel dragging young Canucks into the fight every night”—and it’s hard to argue with that claim. Roussel earned 118 penalty minutes in the 2018/19 season—good enough for third in the league. That rated Roussel alongside notorious bad boys like Evander Kane, Tom Wilson, and Brendan Lemieux—the player who would ultimately end Roussel’s season early after an unfortunate collision. While Roussel’s two injuries certainly represent the downside of his rough-and-tumble intangibles, there’s plenty of reason to celebrate his non-stat-based contributions. Roussel only got in two official fights this year—by far the lowest amount of his career—but both of them were rather convincing beatdowns. The number of times that Roussel got under his opponents’ skin, however, or the number of scrums he instigated, is incalculable. At one point, he picked up a fine for biting San Jose’s Marc-Edouard Vlasic in a late-game brouhaha—but, in general, Roussel managed to infuriate and annoy without crossing any disciplinary lines. Roussel doesn’t throw an inordinate number of hits and he still has a bad habit of taking ill-timed penalties—but the typical tools of his trade are his mouth and the palm of his glove, and he’s very effective at deploying them. It’s hard to describe this season as anything but a success for Antoine Roussel—and for Jim Benning, the GM who signed him. Moving forward, the Canucks probably don’t want Roussel to remain a long-term solution in the top-six—but it’s always nice to have a checking forward who can produce like a scorer when called upon. Roussel’s chemistry with Horvat was noted and appreciated by fans—even if that didn’t always result in Travis Green putting the duo on the same line. One can easily imagine Roussel continuing to lineup alongside Horvat—and perhaps Tanner Pearson—whenever the team can cobble together enough personnel to run three scoring lines. It certainly sounds like the making of a dynamic two-way unit. In any case, one thing became clear in 2018/19—Roussel is well-worth his $3 million per year salary. And—at just 29 years of age—there’s a very good chance that Roussel will continue to provide ample bang for his buck in all three seasons remaining on his contract. The jury may still be out when it comes to Jay Beagle and Tim Schaller—but Benning definitely hit at least a solid double in the Free Agent Frenzy of 2018.

an embarrassment just like that Spike Lee movie about the 92nd Division. Listen to the Stewart interview for Lucas’s take on what he was after. I saw Lucas on the Daily show the other night. He acted as if he uncovered the Tuskegee story when in fact it was already the subject of a good movie starring Lawrence Fishburne and Malcolm Jamal Warner called The Tuskegee Airmen made in 1995 for cable. It was good movie that told the story and passed on the ego stroking bullcrap that judging from the trailer this version seems to have, One thing that stands out from the trailers is that CGI still can’t do believable air planes. they just can’t capture realistic air movement of them. The trailers look horribly fake . As for the cheap shot at Glory the 54th did have white officers, a practice continued by the Army into WWII, the 92nd Division which fought in Italy was Black troops officered by Whites. the Military until the Korean War was segregated and the upper command a bit racist. It’s an historical fact. There are plenty of P-51s still flying but I think most BF-109s that were used in the Battle of Britain movie have been retired from flying so I understand trying CGI. but that as I already wrote just looks horrible. Of course you can find racism among white officers, but Lucas made a specific reference to “cannon fodder” and I rarely came across this in the correspondence of white officers from the Civil War. In fact, more often than not, these men had positive things to say about these men, which is not surprising since it reflected on their own reputation as officers. the “cannon foddr” line was a throw away line by Lucas and calling Infantry “fodder for the guns” has been used for troops since the cannon was developed. It imo ranks low on the outrage scale that Lucas used it. His point was trying to sell his movie , what worries me more is that it will be more towards the propaganda side of things as that is the trend Hollywood has taken as of late The Tuskegee story is a bit unique in that it was Black officered, The USAAF made all pilots officers and they did the same with the Black pilots and the group even had a Black CO which was unheard of at the time. In his essay “The ‘Glory’ Story,” James McPherson suggested that the filmmakers could have gone with a more accurate storyline depicting the experiences of Frederick Douglass’s son Sgt. Maj. Lewis Douglass, and also the men of the 54th whose families were affected by the New York Draft Riots. They were after all, almost entirely free and not freed men, which is something the movie very deliberately changes. The movie changes a number of things, which is to be expected since Glory is not a work of history. That alternative narrative would not have sold tickets because it sat outside of popular memory of the war. It told a triumphant story of black and white Americans working out their differences as part of a war to end slavery. There are any number of things that the movie could have done to tell a more accurate and complex story. Is the Real Glory Part of Our History of the Civil Rights Movement? The 54th Massachusetts in Myth, Memory, and History Glory in the Classroom Totally agree with you there. I just think it’s interesting to speculate on what a more accurate film, such as the one McPherson suggests, would have looked like. Barbara A. Gannon Jan 12, 2012 @ 5:16 He obviously has not seen the movie. White officers are in charge of the unit, but the soldiers are not “cannon fodder.” Perhaps we see class-ism, not racism here. Service is worthy only if you can be officers and pilots. Good point re: class, but I don’t see any reason to bring up the issue of race. Why would Lucas bother to make such a film? I don’t think Glory could have been made any other way but through the eyes of Robert Shaw. If it can, I think it would be sub-par. I am curious to see the representation Lucas is making in this movie. Though I am not overly optimistic as Hollywood usually blunders history for the sake of drama.

kegee airmen are almost the ONLY discussion of Black men in World War 2. Sadly it wasn’t until after my great-aunt’s husband died that I learned he had been in the Second World War’s Pacific Theater doing laundry (which does not excite the majority of folks but I think it is cool). Flying an airplane is something just as courageous as trying, as William Carney did, to get up the wall of Fort Wagner. However, one came before the other. I guess it’s up to historians to try to push that the horse is in front of the cart (or in this case the “cannon fodder” before the airplane). He could have made a better connection that what USCTs did during the Civil War gave the Tuskegee Airmen a place. I don’t think anyone, including Lucas, would disagree with you. That’s very interesting. I know very little about the African American military experience in the twentieth century, but my understanding was that white officers in both world wars often justified their treatment of black servicemen by arguing that they wouldn’t perform well in combat. How well-known was the history of the USCTs in the 1940s? ( I’m not being sarcastic; was their story remembered?) You’d think the career officers in the high command would at least have heard stories of the good service performed by the Buffalo Soldiers in the late 1800s-early 1900s, but then they were a relatively small, all-volunteer group. “You’d think the career officers in the high command would at least have heard stories of the good service performed by the Buffalo Soldiers in the late 1800s-early 1900s, but then they were a relatively small, all-volunteer group.” Career officers did. John Joseph Pershing fought with the 10th Cavalry (Buffalo Soldiers) on Kettle and San Juan Hills in the Spanish American War. This is why he received the name, “Black Jack.” Pershing later went on to be General of the Armies of the United States. This is the highest rank ever bestowed in the United States until Congress declared George Washington the highest ranking officer in the 1970’s. My point being, they had a knowledge of the performance of Buffalo Soldiers. Why they refused to allow them fighting roles I think goes beyond the ability to fight. You might want to hunt up a book called ‘Hit Hard’ about the 761st Tank Battalion. It went through the same experience as the 54th, last in line for resources and it was a battle just to get into the fight. It was used mostly as a foil for training other Tank Battalions and by the time it was sent to France it was among the best trained Tank units the Army had, While Tank Battalions were technically independent most were permanently assigned to an Infantry Division and such was the Case of the 761st, It was assigned to the 26th Yankee Division a division based on the Mass National Guard, which was a political decision too. The book was written by one of its White officers and he is quite truthful about himself and the men, it is well worth reading Kareem Abdul Jabbar also wrote a biik about the unit because his father was in it. The famed Red Ball Express, the supply trucks that moved the material from Normandy to the front were driven by blacks, Blacks were mainly used for supply and rear area duty in WWII, a book on this if you can find it is the ‘Port Chicago Mutiny’ about an incident where Black Sailors objected to the unsafe conditions they labored under loading ships after there was a deadly explosion. which killed 300 and the ensuing mutiny resulted in the court martial of 50 Sailors who were given long sentences. it was an ugly affair and not to the credit of the USN Bob Pollock Jan 12, 2012 @ 8:12 Just a note for anyone interested. There is an NPS site dedicated to the Port Chicago incident. http://www.nps.gov/poch/index.htm Gary Waldron Jan 12, 2012 @ 11:50 And don’t forget the 93rd Infantry Division. Three campaign streamers in the Pacific. The division’s performance influenced the way the Army was desegregated in the Far East when that order came down in the post war. Peter Burchard, in “One Gallant Rush,”–which is one of the books “Glory” is based upon–specifically argues that the 54th were not seen by white officers as cannon fodder. In fact, one of the central themes of both the movie and the real history of the USCTs is their struggle to be allowed to fight. But we all know that the vast majority of Americans get their “history�

According to his brother Grub, who is best known for his association with show band Fab 5, Cooper was last seen entering his apartment on Tuesday. His landlord became suspicious when he did not see him leave on Friday and called the police who forcibly entered the house, where his body was found in a state of decomposition. An autopsy will be done to determine the cause of death. Conroy Cooper was a founding member of Fab 5. After graduating from Excelsior High School in St Andrew during the early 1960s, he got involved in music and formed the band The Broncos. This was an early version of Fab 5 and they became the resident band at Hotel Kingston located on Half-Way-Tree Road, now site of the Kingston School of Nursing. Cooper was part of the Fab 5 outfit that played on singer Johnny Nash's I Can See Clearly Now album, which was released in 1972. He remained with Fab 5 until 1978 when he left to pursue other musical interests. He primarily operated as a keyboardist/organist, and one-man band. Grub shared that they received their musical talents from their parents. Their father, Albert Cooper, played from musical score, while their mother Zelma could play by ear. He also noted the talents of his brother. “He always showed a great talent for music ever since he was five years old. He always had a knack for music and always was ahead of most of his contemporaries during the early years. He was really, really highly skilled, and many people considered him a genius at the time, and some still did up until his death. His track record in later life musically was not so much as he was never in the music business full-time,” Grub told the Jamaica Observer. He credits his brother with introducing a particular sound to reggae music. “The shuffle organ sound in reggae... he was the first to do it when he was with (guitarist/bandleader) Lynn Tait. He also did a lot of studio work with Federal Records. He was also instrumental in getting Ernie Smith his first recording break, and he also gave Peter Ashbourne his recording break in pop music, as he told the people at Federal Records to hire him as he was a good artiste,” Grub disclosed. It was at Grub's birthday party on December 29 last year that the brothers last saw each other, but spoke on the phone several times since. Cooper, who was married three times, is survived by two children, Kismett and Kevin.
