Gordon Food Service Plans For New Distribution Center In Westfield, Indiana
The new facility will be semi-automated, using mini-loaders, mini-shuttles and conveyors designed to assist staff in moving products quickly and safely through the warehouse.
Gordon Food Service is seeking approval to construct a new distribution center in Westfield, Indiana. The proposed site for the new 500,000 square foot facility is located in the NorthPoint Business Park at the northwest corner of Grassy Branch Road and 196th Avenue.
"Our roots are in the midwest, where our business has steadily increased for decades, and we continue to grow by offering customers great service and an even wider range of products," says Rich Wolowski, Gordon Food Service President and CEO. "We saw an opportunity to place a new distribution center in a strong, established market, giving us the ability to deliver more efficiently to our customers."
Once receiving necessary approvals, construction will begin in spring 2020 with a projected start-up in late 2021. The new facility will be semi-automated, using mini-loaders, mini-shuttles and conveyors designed to assist staff in moving products quickly and safely through the warehouse. In addition, it will include three temperature zones for product storage and feature a concept kitchen and administrative office space.
"The Westfield facility will be outfitted with the latest technology and warehouse automation innovation," says Dean Noble, Gordon Food Service Chief Operating Officer. "The robotics and interior layout will greatly reduce manual labor and help ensure the accuracy of orders shipped to our customers."
The facility will be the company's 17th distribution center in the U.S. and its first in Indiana. When it opens, it will serve customers in the greater Indianapolis region.
Prior to opening, more than 200 people will be hired and trained. The jobs available will include the operation and maintenance of advanced warehouse equipment and robotics, in addition to transportation, sales, and administrative positions.

Songwriter Dan Thompson Visits Nashville To Record Vocal Tracks For His CD Album, 1st single getting radio adds daily, 23 stations yesterday!

Singer Songwriter Dan Thompson of Canada sings his vocal on music tracks produced at Nashville Trax Recording Studios.
Engineer Shawn Conley tracking as Bill Watson (not pictured) produces Dan's Miles and Miles vocal session
Update: 11-4-15:
Hi all! A hit song in the making?
On 10-29-15 Nashville Trax received a request by a program director in the U.K. for a copy of Dan Thompson's single release, "Miles and Miles" because she noticed it rising rapidly on the European Spin Scan (SOCAN) list. Nothing surprising, we get requests from music publishers, artists and record companies for client's songs all the time.
But when we forwarded the PD's request to Dan we discovered that due to Dan's promotional efforts, the song, produced by Bill Watson of Nashville Trax, is being played on BBC radio, the largest station in the U.K., which has fueled the song's addition to rotation on multiple stations.
How do you spell r-o-y-a-l-t-i-e-s?
This just in from Dan today:
"Yesterday (Nov. 3rd) Twenty-three traditional SOCAN reporting over-the-air and SOCAN reporting Internet radio stations in the U.S., Canada and Europe downloaded Miles and Miles for airplay use. Good reviews are coming in daily. A screen shot of the report is attached."
Update from Dan: 12-3-15 "Miles & Miles is #2 on the top 10 Downloads on the STS tracking system. So going great, just need to finish the album!"
New Music Weekly, the #1 magazine serving the radio industry and music business, also did this press release on their site:
"Recording Artist, Danny Thompson is tearing up the air-waves once again with the title track release off his new album entitled: "Miles & Miles". The current single, Miles & Miles, is receiving airplay all across Canada, England, North Ireland, Sweden, Poland, Australia, Switzerland, Japan and parts of the USA.
The new single has already positioned at 38 on the top 40 up and coming Country Internet Charts by STS USA, and is expected to move to the top 10 in the next couple of weeks." N.M.W.
Editor's note: Over the past few weeks Miles has risen from position 38, as of December 24th, it's in position #3 . It's also entered the top 40 AC/Hot AC main Charts, at #38 with over 2000 spins.
Dan Thompson's "Miles and Miles" radio adds. 23 in one day!
Exciting times for Dan!
Bill Watson, of Nashville Trax Recording Studios has produced client projects many ways: sometimes turnkey using session singers, never meeting the client; sometimes having the client in for the entire project from initial rhythm tracking to mix. In this case, Dan came to town for only the vocal session.
Dan sent, via e-mail, the mp3 roughs of three songs he penned to Watson, who wrote the arrangement, hired session players and produced the music. He then sent Dan a music mix to practice with. Dan then drove to the Nashville area from Canada (8 hours and only $70 in gas!).
Shawn Conley engineered while Watson coached/produced Dan's vocal. The teamwork paid off with results so stunning that Dan has decided to move forward with a full CD album!
Here's a clip of the song Dan penned for his son, a long haul trucker, who was tragically killed in an accident involving his rig just a few months after "Miles and Miles" was written:

Dinosaurs lived in every continent on Earth; more than 700 different species have been discovered worldwide In fact, if you go into any museum you will see fossils of dinosaurs that are 100% dinosaur, not something in between. There are no 25%, 50%, 75%, or even 99% dinosaurs—they are all 100% dinosaur! The Bible tells us that God created all of the land animals on the sixth day of creation Spinosaurus is one of the biggest dinosaurs known to scientists today. It is even bigger than the T. Rex.

October 17 Youth: In Our Own Eyes We Became Leaders
Jouosur / Issue 5 November 26, 2021
*Researcher in Human Rights
"I am the leader of the Revolution," a phrase affixed to all the walls of Beirut. Suddenly, in our own eyes we became Leaders. This artistic gesture came to respond to the offense against the October Revolution because it had no leadership. The uprising that shook the throne of the ruling authority for months adopted a slogan of strategic nature: "No Leadership, no Negotiation". Actually, it did not include a strategy, since no date was set to mark the birth of a leadership to change the equation.
The rejection of leadership has reached its peak, creating hostility between yesterday's comrades, because each party desired to take over the leadership or to talk "in the name of the street". The Intifada witnessed many bright positions for many days, which led to the rejection of every attempt to establish a front or coordination body that aims to a leadership role. In their discourse, the parties that "joined the street" confirmed that they were not speaking in the name of the revolution or the revolutionaries, which emphasized the differentiation between the trends in the street and the opinion of the political entities, even in cases of congruence, just to exclude the charge of "leadership".
On the other hand, we have witnessed the emergence of action tools and promotion of views and positions that reinforce the state of no leadership. Political entities did not call jointly for action. Instead, the invitation came from an unidentified source and was shared and promoted by actors. The same way is used to promote for resolutions and positions of a political or "tactical" dimension: Will the road blockages continue, how will the resignation of Hariri's government be dealt with, and other critical matters.
The rejection of the leadership and the idyll surrounding this rejection during the October Revolution prompted questions about its background. These questions preluded the reflection on the crisis of leading this opposition in such a complex system like the one running Lebanon.
The rejection of leadership is primarily related to previous bad experiences. Before discarding any experience with the revolution leaders, i.e., the opposition leaders, the priority remains to the experience with the leadership of the State, the ruling authority. Unlike the neighboring countries, Lebanon is managed by discordant but allied leaderships at the same time, or in more practical words, by a multitude of leaders united to command. The ruling system benefits from the plurality of leaders who establish separation and hostility among their followers. In return, they reap the fruits of this hostility on the leadership table, where the cake is laid to be shared. The leader in this equation should meet specific criteria, the "chief" 's standards. The chief 's most important role is to protect his followers. As long as one leader's followers stir up fear and the sense of danger among the followers of the other leader, then the need for both leaders becomes even more urgent to maintain balance. For the followers, leadership is a vague concept based on a combination of reasons, foundations, and old fears. This confusion is not limited to the followers of one leader but applies to all those who live within this system and deal daily with its contradictions. This is how this profoundly rooted discontent can be depicted. It is one of the deep emotions that a vast majority of those who grew up under this system will agree on. This rejection is also reflected in the radical rejection of a bilateral form of ruling based on a government (leadership) and opposition (observing leadership), in exchange of a ferocious defense of "leader/chief".
The other aspect of the experience with leadership is called: The parachute mechanisms. It is more relevant to the opposition. One of the mistakes of the opposition movements that withdrew from the organized political work for a whole generation is that they have returned to this field with the aim of changing the regime. They do so by projecting their vision on the public opinion and imposing it. For example, in 2015, the movement against landfills flagrantly raised the issue of leadership. At that time, the "campaigns" became the leader of the movement, in the sense that they have the power to decide, to say yes or no, to determine the gatherings and their ethics to a certain point that riots were considered an act of treason and purely immoral. This experience led to the exclusion of social groups from the street and the denial of their right to resist, at that time, against the Authority. It has also led to consecrating a competitive, harmful, individualist approach. This is how we moved from the street stage that gives legitimacy, to sudden moves that do not, according to any indication, reflect the street desires. The movement moved from popular rally in the squares to a race for surprise moves here and there, which excluded people not within the campaigns from participating in resisting the Authority and turned them into crowds. This approach remained with no strategy to justify itself in front of the same "crowds".
The street has tested the concept of leadership that confiscates opinion and orientation. This is a perfect reason to reject the leadership. This is also an environment favorable for a void in the leadership crisis on the side of the opposition. It is a fact today that the October Revolution has laid many foundations that will contribute in the future in restoring the concept of leadership from the leadership/chiefship quagmire. Embracing non-leadership and decentralization opened the way to the projection of the idea that suggests that "no sound is louder than that of the battle". This idea denies the fact that people's issues cannot be separated from one another and that they are intertwined and intricately. It is worth noting the challenge facing the opposition in arranging and identifying points of contact between the multiple battles, years after witnessing the different battles fading away into separate projects run through non-governmental organizations. Today, all civil societies and the opposition are responsible for compiling the map in a way that contributes to drawing the features of the comprehensive plan and those of the related battle strategies. This entity must assume leadership responsibilities before becoming a leader.
This workshop needs to frame its outputs through modern political organizations that confront traditional and sectarian parties. Decentralization is, therefore, very important since capital-based organizations are no longer effective, while the balance is tilted in favor of organizations in which individuals from different regions are organized and active within their geographical regions. By doing so, we ensure that people in rural areas and the periphery are not marginalized when building an alternative system.
Intersectionality and political decentralized alignment are a fundamental guarantee to protect the demands of historically marginalized groups in the Lebanese system and prevent any further marginalization and encroachment on their rights. For example, today, it is not acceptable that an emerging leadership would only consider women's issues as demands. Women's issues and demands must be on the map, just like other demands. Women themselves must be part of the leadership, present, and engaged in decision making. Today, there is no place for a unifying leadership that excludes women.
Keeping the 17 October Revolution without leadership has inevitable positive aspects. What type of leadership would it have produced in the early days of the uprising? Can anyone imagine anything other than new chiefs at that stage? Nevertheless, any choice of chiefship today is going to be deadly, sooner or later. Having no leadership for such a long period of political movement and turmoil eliminated any possible guardianship over minds and transformed individuals' daily lives into a continuous political workshop, which compensated for decades of shortfall in this area. This unorganized workshop has now reached a stage where it can define the parameters of a clearly and more accurately hostile system to the people: a mafia and militia system, patriarchal and policing; a male-dominated, sectarian, oligarch, thief, corrupt system not worthy of any confidence. This description is very close to the truth, but it is not the whole truth. For example, the opposition discourse does not show how "racist" this system is. Despite the shortcomings, it became possible to raise this reality to the surface. The more the system becomes clear for the opposition, the more compelling it becomes to develop a leadership that handles the management of the battle and devises its strategies.

LIGO & Gravitational Waves
NEWS: First Direct Detection of Gravitational Waves
About LIGO
How LIGO Works
Physicists Umberto Cannella and Daniel Whiteson explain what gravitational waves are and why they'll cause a big ripple in our understanding of the Universe. (Credit: PHD Comics)
Gravitational waves are a key prediction of general relativity, a theory proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915 that is still our best explanation for the force of gravity. Einstein pictured space and time as interwoven aspects of the same underlying reality, known as space-time. Objects that possess mass, such as stars and planets, warp space-time much like how a heavy ball placed on a trampoline creates a bowl-like depression around itself. This curvature in the space-time trampoline, so to speak, is experienced by all matter in the universe as the force of gravity. Whenever any mass moves, it generates gravitational waves that ripple through space-time like ripples radiating across a pond's surface. For these waves to be big enough to detect, however, extraordinarily massive, astronomical objects are required, such as accelerating black holes or neutron stars. The ability to measure the strength and frequency of gravitational waves is important because such measurements would provide vital details about the distant, exotic phenomena that produced them.
Did a Starry "Mosh Pit" Spawn LIGO's Gravitational Waves?
Much to their surprise, scientists are finding dozens of black holes deep within densely packed collections of stars called globular clusters. We spoke to three astrophysicists—Rainer Spurzem, Carl Rodriguez and Jay Strayder—who are using a record-breaking computer simulation, and other methods, to learn the clusters' secrets, including whether they gave rise to recently observed ripples in space-time.

State Department Says It's Shuttering Last Two Consulates in Russia

The Trump administration says it is shuttering the last two U.S. consulates in Russia, leaving the U.S. Embassy in Moscow as the only diplomatic post in the country. The State Department notified lawmakers of the plans on Dec. 10, before news broke of an alarming Russian-linked cyberattack against numerous government agencies. At that time, the move was attributed to "staffing challenges" caused by limits Russia imposed on U.S. diplomatic personnel in 2017. A State Department spokesperson said in a statement late Friday that the move is intended to "optimize the work of the U.S. mission in Russia." The consulate in the far eastern city of Vladivostok will be permanently closed, while operations at the consulate in Yekaterinburg will be temporarily suspended. "The resulting realignment of personnel at U.S. Embassy Moscow will allow us to advance our foreign policy interests in Russia in the most effective and safe manner possible," the statement said. "No action related to the Russian consulates in the United States is planned," according to the spokesperson. The timeline for the closures was not immediately clear, nor was it clear if the move would be finalized by the time President-elect Joe Biden takes over the White House next month.

The largest motorbike racing events in the world (Part 2)
Post author By Terrence Wallace
Motorcycles participating in the Grand Prix race are specialized vehicles, not mass production for the purpose of competition to bring glory to the car manufacturer.
Currently, there are many world motor racing competitions organized for different types of cars to determine the reputation and success of the participating automakers.
Superbike Racing
Superbike Racing is for mass-produced commercial motorcycles, with structural changes to suit the track. Motorcycles participating in this race must have 4-stroke engines from 800cc to 1200cc for 2-engine engines, and 750cc to 1000cc for 4-cylinder engines.
The cars involved are almost similar to the commercial models and upgraded some parts, in general they do not look different from the street cars, and the engine is allowed to be refined. special tuning.
Supersport Racing
The Supersport Motor Racing is also a racing formula for commercially tuned, engine-manufactured commercial vehicles. To be allowed to participate in this race, the car must be equipped with 4-stroke engine with a capacity of 400 to 600cc with 4-cylinder engine and from 600 to 750cc capacity for 2-cylinder engines.
Supersport's regulations are somewhat stricter than the Superbike race, including the engine of the participating car must be the same size as the standard engine, can adjust engine power but also very strictly controlled.
Famous Supersport competitions include AMA Supersport Championship, British Supersport Championship and Supersport World Championship.
This is a race to test the durability of the car and the physical strength of the racer. Each team has many different riders and can be replaced during a very long race. The race format is to complete the number of laps in the fastest time, or to complete as many laps as possible in a given time. The durability and reliability of a motorcycle is one of the most important elements of this race.
The world of Motocross (or MX) is similar to other motorbike races, but the biggest difference is the harsh off-road conditions. The closed loop is built to challenge all riders including a mixture of dirt, sand, mud and grass… even simulating rough terrain.

Thailand and Qatar either postpone or cancel MotoGP racing
On March 2, Thai Deputy Prime Minister and Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul announced that the MotoGP motorcycle race in the country will be delayed due to COVID-19 respiratory infection.
According to the original plan, the event will take place from March 20-22 in Northeast Thailand. Last week, Thailand's MotoGP organizers were optimistic that the event would take place with the application of strict medical measures such as body temperature tests, masks and the use of antiseptic water.
However, on March 1, the Thai Ministry of Health announced that a 35-year-old man infected with COVID-19 in the country had died.

According to FIM, starting March 1, all passengers arriving in Doha on a direct flight from Italy or already in Italy in the past two weeks will immediately be quarantined for 14 days.
In the context of widespread disease, Italy is currently the most affected country in Europe with 34 deaths and more than 1,600 cases. In MotoGP, Italian drivers play a very important role in the championship. There are six excellent Italian riders, including Valentino Rossi who won the world championship seven times.
MotoGP is the latest sporting event to be canceled due to an epidemic. Previously, Formula One Grand Prix motor racing was originally scheduled for April 19 in Shanghai and Formula E scheduled for March 21 in Sanya, China was canceled. However, the Formula One Grand Prix in Vietnam will still take place on April 5 as expected.

2019 MotoGP World Championship: Impressive Performance of Marquez in Argentina
Marc Marquez, who is also the world champion of MotoGP Racing, soon reclaimed the No. 1 position when he finished his first finish in the second race, the Argentinian Grand Prix. Marquez won the legendary Valentino Rossi with a distance of up to 9,816 seconds.
In the opening race of the season, the Qatar Grand Prix, both Marquez and Andrea Dovizioso (Italy, Ducati) created an extremely breathtaking embankment until the last lap. The two took turns taking the lead in the race, but in the end, "Desmo Dovi" only won with a microscopic distance of 0.023 seconds.
However, that did not reappear at the Autódromo Termas de Río Hondo racetrack (in Santiago del Estero). The driver of the Honda team, with the advantage of starting first, soon created a 1-second gap with the legendary Italian racer. Rossi excelled in taking the No. 2 spot, though only starting in the 4th position.
Then, after the first 10 laps of the race, which had only 25 laps, Marquez created a distance of up to 7 seconds. At times, he increased the gap to more than 12 seconds, which is a staggering distance for long-distance cyclists.
In the end, Marquez's victory won at a distance of 9.8 seconds faster than Rossi. The third finish was "Desmo Dovi", he lost to Marquez to more than 10.5 seconds. The 26-year-old rider has won the world championship seven times (with five times crowned in the MotoGP Racing arena) winning too deservedly, retaking the No. 1 spot with 25 plus points.
With this latest result, Marquez has 45 points after 2 races (in the opening race in Qatar, he won second place and got 20 points). He has 5 points more than Dovizioso (Italian rider has 40 points). Ranking from 3rd to fifth are Rossi (Yamaha) – 31 points, Alex Rins (Spain, Suzuki) – 24 points, and Danilo Petrucci (Italy, Ducati) – 20 points.

Trailing Trump: Memories From Covering an Unconventional Campaign
Book review: Unbelievable, by Katy Tur (Amazon / Book Depository)
Asked by Brian Williams what she's learned after 510 days of Trump, MSNBC reporter Katy Tur thinks to herself, "I've learned that Trump has his own version of reality, which is a polite way of saying he can't always be trusted. He also brings his own sense of political decorum. I've heard him insult a war hero, brag about grabbing women by the pussy, denigrate the judicial system, demonize immigrants, fight with the pope, doubt the democratic process, advocate torture and war crimes, tout the size of his junk in a presidential debate, trash the media, and indirectly endanger my life. I've learned that none of this matters to an Electoral College majority of American voters."
Apologies for two similar political, election-themed posts in a row, but mid-September seems to be the sweet spot for campaign memoirs and I couldn't wait to read this one because I thought Tur would unleash on whatever insanity she'd seen along the way.
Throughout the course of covering the 2016 presidential election, Tur found herself the frequent target of Donald Trump's ire against the media. And thanks to her short stature and most likely her young age, Trump gave her a nickname, like he does for all his great adversaries – "Little Katy". Tur knows that it's meant to demean and diminish her, as Trump seems to inherently equate anything small with bad, but she's developed a necessary extra-thick skin (unlike him.)
Tur was called back to New York after being given her "dream job" of a foreign correspondent posting in London. In 2015, she assumed this would be a temporary gig, covering Trump's bizarre campaign until he ran himself into the ground. But it was the beginning of a nonstop whirlwhind, and she was assigned exclusively to him, part of a roving press corps that doggedly followed him as he crisscrossed the country for his frenetic rallies, trying to stay on top of the scandals, shocks, and soundbites Trump and his camp flooded the news with.
As the very first national TV news reporter to cover the Trump juggernaut, I was there from the beginning – covering it every day for nearly two years until the shocking end…First (conclusion), no one can make perfect sense of it. Second, I'm smart enough not to try. The Trump campaign…roiled America and with it, my little life. I won't pretend to explain it. I will tell you what I saw.
This book is very much a personal story. Tur lets us in on the less-glamorous side of TV reporting, and isn't shy about showing how tough, exhausting, and grimy the job can be. That's not exactly what I was reading for, I was much more interested in parts where she observed the rally atmosphere, interacted with the electorate, or gave blow-by-blows of events as they played out.
But with the knowledge of what her job really entails, smooth and organized as it may appear on-air, it's all the more awful to know how Trump treated her and what he knowingly subjected her to at the hands of his followers.
And, delightfully, she gives some gossipy insider info about Trump and his staffers, one reason I was so looking forward to this. Arriving at Trump Tower for a sit-down not far into the campaign, she tells us what she sees and I'm here for it: "He's orange. There's no other way to describe him. He's the color of orange marmalade, perhaps a shade darker, like marmalade on toast." Just as I imagined.
She also relates instances of his remarkable unprofessionalism, like when he badgered her to take a photo with him. "Why in the world would he think I want a photo? I'm not a fan. I'm a journalist. This is a network news interview." Yeah, but he's Trump and you're not. Therefore you must be starstruck and awed, no? There's no other acceptable answer.
In not-at-all shocking news, Trump alternates between uncomfortable flattery, like barreling down when he spies her to kiss her cheek and the above insistence on a photo-op; and calling her out at rallies, saying she's dishonest and a "third rate reporter."
At the end of this interview, where he got progressively more enraged, thus insulting and intimidating, resorting to ridiculing Tur's tongue slips in a bullying attempt (side note, he makes me sick), Trump tells her she stumbled three times. Which leads to this illuminating exchange, important now as Hope Hicks assumes a bigger White House role having managed to keep a low profile thus far:
"It doesn't matter if I stumble. I'm not running for president," I say…He looks me straight in the eye and lands what he must think is the harshest insult of all: "You'll never be president!'" Neither will you. Thankfully, I bite my tongue before the words are out. Hope Hicks interjects: "He's a presidential candidate. You can't speak like that to a presidential candidate. It isn't respectful."
So if anyone had any illusions that she's something different from her colleagues thanks to her silence compared to their shrieking, go ahead and ditch those now.
The problem is that the book's narrative jumps chaotically back and forth in time, alternating between Tur's campaign trail beat, and election night in the lead-up to Trump's win, which is where the book ends. This can work when done well, but the events themselves were so hectic and fast-paced that any sense of time completely falls apart in this structure. It's hard to follow.
I liked the parts focusing on Tur's feelings about some unreal-seeming but very frightening situations she found herself in, like being spat on by a Trump supporter and harassed online and at rallies by others. This was such a chilling aspect of this election cycle. She relates her thoughts openly and, like any good reporter, puts these incidents into greater context.
Or observations of scenes like this one:
"Nothing short of Trump shooting my daughter in the street and my grandchildren" can dissuade me from voting for Trump, a woman told Ashley Parker of the New York Times. So imagine how you would feel if every time you turned on NBC, you saw my reporting on this figure you love – this figure you think will lift you up, save your job, make your country great again. Imagine how you'd feel if every night and all day this…girl was shining a critical light on your beloved figure. Who is she to question his plans? Double-check his statements? Follow up on his promises?
You would hate me.
And people do.
Its mostly chatty tone includes gossip about reporters hooking up on the campaign trail and competition between networks for scoops. A lot of minutiae about how the sausage gets made in news broadcasting. Stories about how she could be completely burnt out and exhausted but still have to cake on makeup and find clean clothes despite a harrowing travel schedule were interesting the first time, but not when they reappeared. It gets boring and repetitive.
But a big part of her life and this job was the relentless, exhausting beat of the campaign trail, so that dizzying perspective does make up the bulk of the book.
It's a quick read and there are interesting moments and insights that definitely make it worthwhile, plus a lot to learn about journalism during an election cycle. But I didn't love the voice and some of the memoir elements. As a whole it felt very quickly composed; a risk for accounts and analysis of the past year when the news changes lightning-fast.
I'll close with one of my favorite moments, also one of Katy's, when a correspondent remembered a call from a Trump communications staffer.
"Are we off the record?" the staffer asked.
"Sure," the reporter said. "What's going on?"
"Great. Off the record: Mr. Trump wants you to go fuck yourself."
This, from the man who arrogantly chastised Tur during their interview for using the phrase "pissing off" about the reaction he provokes in other countries. His pettiness is unrivaled: he's got the best pettiness, everyone is saying it's the most tremendous pettiness they've ever seen, I'll give him that.
A light, fast-moving if disorganized and chaotic account of modern journalism in an unusual campaign cycle, with personal insights from a reporter who found herself simultaneously in Trump's crosshairs and on the receiving end of his unwanted attentions.

Will you be reading What Happened? B-)
I don't know yet! Are you going to read it? I'm torn, I'm interested but the excerpts I've read so far in reviews didn't really grab me. But I find her very eloquent and compared to what Trump says every day, I think reading what might've been is going to make me a little depressed! But maybe, if I can get motivated for it.
No, I don't plan on reading it. Some excerpts I read opened up old wounds. (I'm a Sanders fan) I look forward to reading your review if you read it.
It felt the same for me as a Sanders supporter, and also regarding Biden. I was too disappointed.
Yeah. I feel if Biden ran against Trump, he would probably be the president now. 😐
danielwalldammit says:
I have never seen a more clear test of human character than support for Donald Trump. With very few exceptions, his fan-base is comprised of the worst people I know.
It's become quite a litmus test, hasn't it? It's weird that in previous elections it never felt so crazy to have friends on both sides of the political spectrum, and nowadays, it seems unimaginable.
reneeymarcum says:
Thank you for "liking" my post The Walking Doomed. It led me to your site and I've been reading your posts. They're awesome! It's always such a rewarding experience and a relief to find like-minded individuals, those who know reality, among all these crazy Trump supporters. I live in a small town in Kentucky and as you can probably imagine, I'm among the minority.
Thank you! I'm glad you like them and I'm always happy to hear from like-minded people about this crazy political situation we're in. I can't imagine what that's like for you living there! I'm from NYC so most of my friends and family are liberal, but it's been difficult with those who aren't in this last election and aftermath. Observing it all while living abroad right now has been especially scary, I feel helpless. Staying informed and connecting with others who see the reality of this helps though! Thanks for your kind words, I wish you a lot of strength dealing with the mindset around you!

REVOLUTION CORNER
There aren't many traces left in the University District of the tumultuous early 1970s. Forty years have erased almost all of them. One exception is found on the northwest corner of W. 10th and Hunter, adjacent to 110 W. Tenth.
Sometime back in the very late 1960s or early 1970s, the city or a property owner poured a new sidewalk here. Before the concrete fully hardened, actual communists inscribed it with propaganda. By the time the damage was discovered, the concrete was hard and it was too late and too expensive to do anything about it.
The communists hoped that Joe and Jill Average Student from Middletown would innocently stumble onto this graffiti, have their minds liberated, and be transformed into flag-burning, AK-toting disciples of Ho Chi Minh.
Forty years have passed. The war ended. The US left Vietnam. Mao died and the Cultural Revolution ended. The Killing Fields of Cambodia erased whatever appeal the Maoist model held. The Cold War ended. The Soviet Union fell and took Marxism-Leninism with it. China embraced market reforms and became a global economic power. Vietnam itself embarked on the capitalist road. It now enjoys a booming economy and friendly relations with the United States. US stores are full of cheap Vietnamese manufactured goods while Vietnamese use Microsoft Windows, eat food grown in Iowa, use plastics from Texas, and watch Hollywood movies on DVD.
The Sixties radicalism that inspired this sidewalk graffiti seems quaint and a bit silly now, an odd fashion of a half-forgotten time, like beehive hairdos, Pop Art, or Day-Glo miniskirts.
As for the communists who inscribed the graffiti... They probably grew out of annoying their parents and forsook Marx sometime in the 1970s, became yuppie mall developers in the 1980s, and now live in a gated community in Phoenix, playing golf, hating their grandkids' hip-hop music, idolizing the "greatest generation" parents they once despised, watching Fox News, and worrying about their prostates.
A hammer and sickle? Really? Seriously? That's how you win friends and influence people?
These Sixties communists were nothing if not naive. Hadn't they ever seen the kind of reception Ivan Koloff got at pro-wrestling events? Hadn't they ever heard The Beatles' "Revolution?" If you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow.
Scarcely more effective is the image to the left of the hammer and sickle. Just barely visible in this photograph is a Vietcong flag with the words "Victory to the NLF."
The NLF was the National Liberation Force for South Vietnam. Called the Vietcong by US forces, the NLF was the communist insurgency battling to overthrow the South Vietnamese government and the enemy of US soldiers fighting in Vietnam.
This looks to be a crude and incomplete rendering of an AK-47, AKM, or maybe an RPK-47 firearm. Hard to tell. All were common Vietcong weapons.
Alongside it are the words "To revolt is just."
The message is that armed revolt against the existing order is justified. With Soviet-manufactured weapons.
Nearby is a clenched fist (visible in the first picture above). In the 1960s and early 1970s, the clenched fist was most strongly associated with black nationalist groups. It was prominently and controversially displayed by African-American athletes in the 1968 Olympics.
Clenched fist iconography also figured in the Ohio State riots of spring 1970. It was the symbol used by the student strike campaign. This leads me to suspect that this graffiti was probably made sometime close to the riots.
Long Live the Victory of People's War was an article written by Lin Biao in 1965. He was a prominent Red Chinese general and Mao's second-in-command until his mysterious death in a coup attempt in 1971.
Lin Biao's article generalized from Mao's strategy of protracted people's war in China and called for communist revolutions in Asia, Africa, and Latin America to surround, undermine, and eventually bring down the capitalist countries and usher in global communism.
Blending Third World anti-colonial struggles with Marxist revolution and an implied racial struggle, People's War hit all the right notes for Sixties radicals. Sixties radicals were already massively in love with Red China anyway.
It wasn't, however, all that well known. The average student, even the average demonstrator, would probably have been unaware of it.
These sidewalk-defacing communists were the real deal. They knew their stuff. For all that, I doubt their propaganda ever changed a single mind, much less transformed Joe and Jill Average Student into Buckeye Che Guevaras, ready to take to the Hocking Hills.
Forty years after its creation, the sidewalk graffiti has faded considerably. Weathering and erosion have nearly erased it. Scores of people walk over this sidewalk everyday without noticing any of it.
These pictures were taken in 1996. The graffiti is much less legible today. Two panels, one beginning "Revolution is the..." and another proclaiming "Avenge Da..." (Dan? Dave? Dale?) have become almost completely unreadable. Still, if you happen to be there on a sunny day, preferably as the sun is just starting to sink in the west, you can yet see some of this legacy of the University District in the 1960s.
UPDATE: Sidewalk repairs in November 2010 have taken out two panels of the revolutionary sidewalk graffiti. Most remains intact for now.
