National Association

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, usually abbreviated as NAACP, is an African-American civil rights organization in the United States, formed in 1909.

Many of you who know my story, know that I tried many years to stop being *** and become "straight." I was at the Exodus International conference in Seattle and stood for this group photo to stand "for the truth that homosexuals can change." It is not the best quality so finding me is harder than I hoped. If anyone has a better picture or the original release advertisement please forward it to me. Let me make this very clear: Conversion therapy, reparative therapy, or any efforts to change sexual orientation or same gender attraction is harmful! I was hurt in horrible ways and I am thankful for Trinity Mcc Arlington for helping me find true healing and the love of Christ. I am now proud of how God made me and my relationship with God is stronger and more vibrant than ever. For more info on the harmful effects of ex *** ministries research the National Association of Social Workers, The American Psychological Association, The American Psychiatric Association, The American Counseling Association, and ...

Some good news on the Obamacare front: "... the prospect of IPAB’s vast powers and virtually nonexistent accountability increasingly is proving frightening even to organizations traditionally allied with leftists like Obama. Just last week, more than 500 organizations sent a letter to Congress urging total repeal of the new board. They include not just a plethora of physicians groups – the American College of Emergency Physicians, the American Association of Radiology, the American College of Surgeons, the American Medical Association and many more – but also patient advocates and charitable groups such as Easter Seals, the AIDS Alliance, the National LGBT Cancer Project, the National Alliance on Mental Illness and the National Association for Home Care and Hospice. This massive conglomeration of organizations protested both the practical effects of IPAB – “We all share the conviction that the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) will not only severely limit Medicare beneficiaries’ access ...

THE COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS: TWO VIEWS Apr 16, 2013 | Jane Robbins, Mark Bauerlein Font Size This two-part article appears in the spring 2013 issue of Academic Questions (volume 26, number 1), the journal of the National Association of Scholars. UNCOMMONLY BAD Jane Robbins Jane Robbins is a senior fellow with the American Principles Project, 1420 K Street, NW Washington, DC 20005; jrobbinsIn this position, she has crafted federal and state legislation designed to restore the constitutional autonomy of states and parents in education policy, and to protect the rights of religious freedom and conscience. Her essays on these topics have been published in various print and online media including Public Discourse and the New York Post. The advent of the Common Core State Standards has prompted a new discussion about how to produce students who are “college- and career-ready.” But this question differs from the one that governed education throughout most of our history.

March 2013   Existing-home sales edged up in January, while a seller's market is developing and home prices continue to rise steadily above year-ago levels, according to the National Association of Realtors®. Sales rose in every region but the West, which is the region most constrained by limited inventory.   Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said tight inventory is a major factor in the market. "Buyer traffic is continuing to pick up, while seller traffic is holding steady," he said. "In fact, buyer traffic is 40 percent above a year ago, so there is plenty of demand but insufficient inventory to improve sales more strongly. We've transitioned into a seller's market in much of the country."   "We expect a seasonal rise of inventory this spring, but it may be insufficient to avoid more frequent incidences of multiple bidding and faster-than-normal price growth," Yun explained.   NAR President Gary Thomas, broker-owner of Evergreen Realty in Villa Park, Calif., said homes are selling faster. "The typ ...

On my video about installing the XS Sight on Bane's AK people were saying the Tritium would "wear out" before he could use it. I said the half life of Tritium is 15 years.

I would like to apologize to the "National Association of Internet Nuclear Scientists" for my mistake.

Real Estate Tip: Find a Home to Buy Buying a home can be an overwhelming process and emotionally draining. Finding the right home is not always an easy task. I advise buyers to look at a maximum of 7 homes at a time because any more than that will make a buyer's head spin. Most buyers conduct a lot of research online before ever stepping foot in a home. Buyers spend an average of 6 to 8 weeks, according to the National Association of REALTORS, trying to figure out where they want to live. But once the neighborhood is selected, most buyers end up buying a home after 2 or 3 home tours.
Thanks, Tony Diaz, for sharing. This bill SB 1128 is reminiscent of Arizona's House Bill 2281 (it even uses the same mix of numbers) that sought to ban ethnic studies at Tucson unified school District. It does seem to be a sleeper bill authored by our right wing, pro-voucher, anti-public education, and higher education Senate Committee chair from Houston Dan Patrick. This bill may very well likely be the unfolding of the explicit concern by the National Association of scholars which reportedly found that the University of Texas at Austin is teaching history courses with presumably "narrow specializations" among faculty members that teach courses with a high emphasis on race class and gender offering students a"distorted picture", in their words, of US history. They also said that this was a bigger problem at UT Austin than at Texas A&M University. We would all be wise to keep track of this legislation. Call your house and senate members that represent you and ask them about the political intent of house . ...
Today marks the 30th anniversary of Ronald Reagan first calliing the Soviet Union the “Evil Empire” in a speech delivered at a meeting of the National Association of Evangelicals. Reagan called communism “the focus of evil in the modern world,” his otherwise rather routine speech electrified and polarized the political class, as it was delivered at a time when Congress was debating a resolution in support of a "nuclear freeze," a doctrine then supported, not surprisingly, by the Soviet Union. For those of you who know the Bible you also know that the battle has always and will always between Jacob (USA) and Esau (Russia). You also know to anticipate the upcoming battle between our two great nations. One God loves and the other God hates, the battle will end with the Lord!

Slain Varsity Student: NANS Seeks Justice. The National Association of Nigerian Students has warned the police against sweeping under the carpet the case of a 400 level student of Business Administration at the Ekiti State University, Ado Ekiti, Seyi Fasere, who was allegedly killed by a policeman at the Divisional Police Station in Oye Ekiti. The Chairman of Joint Campus Committee of NANS, Ekiti chapter, Mr. Damilare Bewaji, in a statement made available to journalists in Ado Ekiti on Friday, said those who killed Fasere must be brought to justice. The student leader described the killing of his colleague, who was billed to start the second semester examination on Monday, as the height of wickedness. He said the two principal witnesses in the case, a 72-year-old woman, who boarded the same commercial bus with the victim, and a member of the robbery gang had said that Fasere was not among the gang that attacked a branch of the United Bank for Africa at Oye Ekiti on February 28.

Good day at the National Association of Evangelicals Board meetings. Enjoyed hanging out with a fascinating collection of national leaders -- especially enjoyed fellowship with Mark Batterson & Johnnie Moore
Is it racist to wonder why there's no White History Month? Why there's no National Association for the Advancement of White People? Why there's no White Entertainment Television channel? Ladies and gentlemen, this is true racism. I embrace racial equality, not the superiority of any race over another. The NAACP and other groups, in their existence alone, promote the separation and inequality of races. We are one people, and groups and recognition of races as separate from each other shows the opposite. Until we realize this, racial tensions will continue. We're not African-Americans, Asian-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, or European-Americans. We are simply Americans.

Excerpt from THE BEWITCHED HISTORY BOOK: "March 7, 1968 Tonight Bewitched would not be seen so that ABC could bring us a special starring Debbie Reynolds, Agnes Moorehead’s good friend, entitled '…And Debbie Makes Six'. It was an hour of comedy and music with Frank Gorshin, Bob Hope, Jim Nabors, Donald O’Connor, Nelson Riddle, and Bobby Durwood, er, I mean Darin (sorry…force of habit). This special was originally supposed to air on November 19, 1967, but because of a strike by the National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technician’s against ABC, it was held off until tonight. The night before, Lost in Space aired its last episode."

Pioneering educator Nannie Helen Burroughs (1879-1961) sometime in the 1910s. Born in Orange, Virginia, Ms. Burroughs graduated with honors from the Colored High School, which would later become M Street School and then Dunbar High School. Best known as the founder of the National Trade and Professional School for Women and Girls, Ms. Burroughs was an early advocate for teaching African American History and students had to pass a course in black history in order to graduate. A member of the National Association of Colored Women among other civic and religious advocacy groups, Ms. Burroughs was appointed to a special committee on African Americans and housing by President Herbert Hoover. Also a leader in religion, she helped found the Women's Auxiliary of the National Baptist Convention.

Love Chuck Lorre's vanity cards :) CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, have long believed that part of our problem with resolving race issues in America is our inability to accurately name what we are. Aside from the occasional Johnny and Edgar Winter, there are no white people. Any child with a box of crayons can tell you that white people are, in fact, beige. The sickly ones are gray. Following this crayon logic, one can easily see that there are really no black people. They are brown. Or perhaps raw umber. Or maybe burnt sienna. Frankly, every time I hear someone comment on America's first black president, I can't help thinking, "No, he's not. He's more like caramel." Which is why I think we should all get in the habit of calling each other what we really are. How can you racially slur a man by calling him "beigey" or "umber?" The answer is you can't. Because that's exactly what he is. The melanin doesn't lie. Buy a box of Crayolas and see for yourself. We are all members of the National Association for the Advan ...
Time to Reality Check the Real Estate Market Rarely does a day go by that I don’t get asked if this is a good time to buy and/or sell a home. Some people might think that my response is always an emphatic “YES!” because I work in real estate. But in truth, there is no right or wrong answer. Every person’s circumstances are unique, so in some cases the answer might be yes, but for others it might make more sense to wait. Allow me to explain. The good news is that we’re finally coming out of the housing slump of the past five-plus years. Housing is a major driving factor of the U.S. economy, so regardless of whether or not one owns a home, a stronger housing market is good for everyone. For some would-be home sellers, this positive momentum, combined with a rise in home prices and buyer activity, is enough to compel them to list their home. And right now the statistics appear to be on their side. According to the most recent findings from the National Association of REALTORS®, total housing inven ...
Our unsecured border – causes and consequences with video by Jonathan DuHamel on Mar. 04, 2013, under Politics “Our border with Mexico is intentionally being made insecure.” So says Zack Taylor, a retired Border Patrol Officer. I recently attended a talk by Mr. Taylor, a talk he has given in many places including on the Glenn Beck program. According to Mr. Taylor, the main problems with border security are lack of sufficient staff at ports of entry, lack of rigorous enforcement of existing immigration laws, and lack of unfettered access to the border by the Border Patrol. Detailed information about these issues can be found on the website of the National Association of Former Border Patrol Officers (and more specifically in a report titled: “A Proposal for Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement and Reform,” see: is a key issue. If you look at a map of Arizona, you will notice that much of our southern border consists of wildlife refuges, national monuments, wilderness areas, and an Indian reserva ...

www.RevGroupLLC.com   March 4, 2013     DESPITE ANXIETIES, DOW STAYS ABOVE 14,000 The DJIA settled at 14,089.66 Friday, gaining 0.64% on the week. The S&P 500 (+0.17% to 1,518.20) and NASDAQ (+0.25% to 3,169.74) also logged five-day advances. All this happened in the face of significant instability, as Wall Street fretted over the deadlock in Italy’s national elections and the sequester cuts taking effect on March 1. Congress and the White House could not arrange a deal to delay the sequestration last week, which means that $85 billion will be subtracted from the budgets of government agencies between March 2 and October 1 unless a bipartisan agreement emerges to undo the cuts.1,2   TERRIFIC REAL ESTATE DATA HELPS BUOY STOCKS New home buying accelerated 16% in January – the biggest monthly rise in almost 20 years, according to the Commerce Department. Pending home sales rose 4.5% in January, the National Association of Realtors said; that was far above the 1.0% gain forecast by economists polled b ...
National Professional Social Work Month MARCH 2013 Social Workers Promote Resilience and Advocacy WASHINGTON, DC (March 1, 2013) Today, the National Association of Social Workers begins its annual celebration of one of the nation’s largest professions. March is National Professional Social Work Month and this year’s theme, “Weaving Threads of Resilience and Advocacy,” emphasizes the value of using personal strengths and self-advocacy to manage serious life challenges. “Social workers strive every day to help millions of people function better in their environments,” says NASW CEO Elizabeth J. Clark, PhD, ACSW, MPH. “They also work to change environments that may limit individuals, families and communities.” “Our democracy thrives when everyone has the opportunity to lead a productive and fulfilling life,” says NASW President Jeane Anastas, PhD, LMSW. “For more than 100 years, the social work profession has made the psychosocial well-being of the most vulnerable its top priority beca ...
Exterior Replacement Projects Provide Biggest Return on Investment for Homeowners, Say REALTORS Homeowners looking for the most return on their investment when it comes to remodeling should consider exterior replacement projects. According to the 2013 Remodeling Cost vs. Value Report, REALTORS rated exterior projects among the most valuable home improvement projects. "REALTORS know that curb appeal projects offer great bang for your buck, because a home's exterior is the first thing potential buyers see," says National Association of REALTORS President Gary Thomas. "Projects such as siding, window and door replacements can recoup more than 70 percent of their cost at resale. REALTORS know what home features are important to buyers in your area and can provide helpful insights when considering remodeling projects." Results of the report are summarized on NAR's consumer website HouseLogic.com, which provides information on dozens of remodeling projects, from kitchens and baths to siding replacements, includ ...

Racism: The Challenge for Social Workers E-mail Written by Barbara Trainin Blank Despite the decades that have passed since the beginning of the civil rights movement, racism is still a major issue in America. We still see organized hate groups, news stories of racial slurs and attacks, and examples that we observe in our everyday lives. So, what should social workers and the profession as a whole do about it? First, a definition is in order. According to the National Association of Social Workers Web site, racism is “the ideology or practice through demonstrated power or perceived superiority of one group over others by reasons of race, color, ethnicity, or cultural heritage.” The definition further goes on to note that “racism is manifested at the individual, group, and institutional level.” The social workers and social work educators we interviewed indicated that while there has been some progress, the problem still exists—albeit in changed ways. They feel that reduced vigilance and a sense ...

I asked if I could join the National Association of Black Journalists. They said no.

Downplaying the potential costs of the Fed's unconventional easing efforts, which currently include $85 billion in monthly asset purchases, Yellen highlighted the dangers of a prolonged period of economic malaise. "Insufficiently forceful action to achieve our dual mandate also entails costs and risks," Yellen told a conference sponsored by the National Association of Business Economists. "At present, I view the balance of risks still calling for highly accommodative monetary policy to support a stronger recovery and more rapid growth in employment." Yellen, seen as a potential successor to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, who is expected to step down early next year, reiterated Fed officials' intention to keep their foot on the accelerator even as the economy recovers. "The large shortfall of employment relative to its maximum level has imposed huge burdens on all too many Americans and represents a substantial social cost," she said. "Prolonged economic weakness could harm the economy's productive potential f ...

On This Day In Baseball History: 1874 - At the fourth meeting of the National Association of Professional Baseball Players in Boston, the batter's box is officially adopted. It is also decided that expulsion will be the penalty for any player betting on his own team and any player betting on any other team will forfeit his pay. 1886 - The American Association meets and overrules president Denny McKnight (also owner of the Pittsburgh Alleghenys club) and suspends second baseman Sam Barkley for signing with Pittsburgh before the dispute over his sale is settled. The AA adopts new rules. The number of balls needed for a walk is reduced from seven to six; the pitcher's box is one foot deeper, giving the pitcher seven feet behind the 50-foot front line in which to execute his delivery; stolen bases are adopted as an official statistic, although the definition is rather vague initially. 1888 - The National League meets in New York and abolishes all discounts from the 50-cent minimum admission price. Despite the ...

Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage declined to 3.51 percent from 3.56 percent last week. That’s near the 3.31 percent rate reached in November, the lowest on records dating to 1971. The average rate on the 15-year fixed mortgage slipped to 2.76 percent from 2.77 last week. The record low is 2.63 percent. The lowest mortgage rates in decades have helped the housing market recover. More people are buying homes, which has pushed up home prices. And ultra-low rates have encouraged more people to refinance. That often lowers monthly mortgage payments and leaves consumers with more spending money. A measure of the number of Americans who signed contracts to buy homes rose in January from December to the highest level in more than 2 1/2 years, the National Association of Realtors reported Wednesday. The increase suggests that sales of previously occupied homes will continue rising in the coming months. New-home sales jumped 16 percent last month from De ...

WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Larry Lujack, a radio legend particularly in Chicago, had his early roots in the Northwest. Larry Lujack was born Larry Blankenburg in Idaho and later changed his name to that of his football hero. He attended the College of Idaho and Washington State University. Larry was a biology major at the Caldwell school when he ran out of money and needed a part time job. He became a disc jockey at KCID. He later worked at KNEW/KJRB in Spokane in 1962-1963 and on to KJR in Seattle. But, his move to Chicago flung him into the “big time.” From 1967 to 2006, Larry Lujack was heard on WCFL, WLS, WUBT and WRLL. He was added into the National Radio Hall of Fame on November 6, 2004. On April 15, 2008, Larry Lujack was inducted into the National Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame during their annual convention in Las Vegas. He is now retired with his wife Jude near Santa Fe, New Mexico.

| -A A +A New-Home Sales Gain Steam Daily Real Estate News | Wednesday, February 27, 2013 Sales of new single-family homes in January rose to its fastest pace since 2008, leading to more confirmation that the recovery in the new-home sector is charging forward. New-home sales rose 15.6 percent in January to reach a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 437,000 units, HUD and the U.S. Census Bureau reports. "The surge in demand for new homes this January is an excellent sign that the housing recovery is gaining steam and helping put more people back to work," says Rick Judson, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders. "While we can't expect to see double-digit sales growth every month, consumers are definitely coming off the fence as prices start to rise, and builders in some cases are having a tough time keeping up. Challenges related to credit availability, poor appraisals, dwindling lot supplies, spot shortages of skilled labor and rising materials costs are all weighing on the recovery proces ...

Latina Icon Lupe Ontiveros Omitted From Oscars' "In Memoriam" Tribute It came to our attention on Sunday night that actress Lupe Ontiveros, a Latina icon who for 35 years entertained us with her wit and smart portrayal of Latina characters, was not included in the Oscars' "In Memoriam" tribute reel.

Gov. Scott names 3 to Florida Women's Hall of Fame February 25, 2013 16:59 EST TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Gov. Rick Scott has named a black hospital founder -- a pioneer who was taught to hunt and fish by Seminole Indians and a national safety leader -- to the Florida Women's Hall of Fame. Scott announced this year's inductees on Monday. Clara C. Frye transformed her Tampa home into a temporary hospital in 1908 and then established the Clara Frye *** Hospital there in 1923.

It seems the country is just full of mere noisemakers. Billions of naira was embezzled in Police Pensions Funds, and none of the policemen could fight for their right!!! Four university students were murdered in cold blood, and National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, cannot rise against this gruesome murder of their members!!! A civil approach to this case is for NANS to take legal action against the Nigerian Army, calling for the heads of military officers in charge of the zone where their members were gruesomely murdered today. The rugged approach is to close all the schools down until the culprits are brought to book. Unfortunately, the current NANS is just another useless body, not different from National Union of Road Transport Workers, NURTW. I feel like puking each time I hear about NANS. **SMH**

Weekly outlook :) Enjoy Market Focus Canada's consumer price index declines in January Statistics Canada reported that its consumer price index dipped 0.1% in January on a seasonally adjusted monthly basis. On a year-over-year basis, the index is up only 0.5%, its slowest annual growth rate since October 2009. More important to the markets, the Bank of Canada’s core index dropped to a 1.0% annual pace, the bottom of the bank’s 1% ‑ 3% target band and its lowest reading since February 2011. Despite the ongoing protestations over Canadians’ household debt levels, there appears to be no material inflationary pressures within the domestic economy. As such, the Bank of Canada has little justification to contemplate tighter monetary policy over the medium term. U.S. housing remains strong Sales of existing U.S. homes continued to edge higher in January but would have been stronger if not for low inventories, according to the National Association of Realtors. During the month, sales reached a 4.92 millio ...
Old article, but worth a read. Crystal methamphetamine: John Avery Wednesday, July 30, 10 a.m. ET Methamphetamine, which just a few years ago was found mostly in few western states and produced in rural drug labs, now is whipping across America. For the first time, police in the South and along the East Coast are busting up significant numbers of home labs, where meth "cooks" use ingredients from local pharmacies and recipes from the Internet to make batches of the highly addictive stimulant. In 1995, law enforcement officials shut down just one lab in Alabama. Last year, they shut down 197. Missouri officials closed 652 labs in 2002, up from 29 seven years ago. Chat about the impact of crystal methamphetamine with John Avery, director of public policy for the National Association for Addiction Professionals. Missed the chat? Read the transcript below: Culver City, CA: Whats the difference between meth and cocain (besides the fact that they are two entirely different chemicals). Would you consider one mor ...

LIBERAL GROUPS WANT FCC TO POLICE TALK RADIO, CABLE NEWS: "The groups assert in the letter that 'hate, extremism and misinformation have been on the rise... as the media has focused on Arizona’s passage of one of the harshest pieces of anti-Latino legislation in this country’s history.' The organizations include the Center for Media Justice, the Rainbow Push Coalition, the League of United Latin American Citizens, the National Association of Latino Independent Producers, and Common Cause."[17] That last list of organizations is part of a socialist chain of cronies that reach far beyond our borders. Following the guidelines of Saul Alinsky, they "call evil good and good evil." The Constitutional promise of free speech and press have no place in their revolutionary agenda. Yet some reporters have dared to expose this war on truth and freedom.

I went into my textbook to prepare for my quiz and lo and behold this was in Chapter 10. GLOBAL COMPANY PROFILE: RUSTY WALLACE’S NASCAR RACING TEAM: HIGH-PERFORMANCE TEAMWORK FROM THE PIT CREW MAKES THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WINNING AND LOSING In the 1990s, the popularity of NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) exploded, bringing hundreds of millions of TV and sponsorship dollars into the sport. With more money, competition increased, as did the rewards for winning on Sunday. The teams, headed by such names as Rusty Wallace, Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., and Tony Stewart, are as famous as the New York Yankees, Atlanta Hawks, or Chicago Bears. This Goodyear tire comes off Rusty Wallace’s car and is no longer needed after going around the track for more than 40 laps in a June 19 Michigan International Speedway race. Jamie Rolewicz takes tires from a pile of used tires and puts them onto a cart. The race car drivers may be famous, but it’s the pit crews who often determine the outc ...
