A 36-hour stopover at the Steuart Petroleum Co. terminal in Piney Point in late August to discharge the Falcon Lady's fuel cargo provided the touring op­ portunity for the Seafarers. Some 300,000 barrels of petroleum can be carried, aboard the 642-foot super­ tanker. The 37,000-ton vessel is one of four new ships planned by Falcon Carriers, the largest American- flag ships powered by diesel engine. The two 7,500 horsepower diesel engines of the Falcon Lady can reach a cruising speed of 17 knots. Scheduled for launching early next year are the Falcon Countess and the Falcon Princess.

  • The Long Red Thread How Democratic Dominance Gave Way to Republican Advantage in Us House of Representatives Elections, 1964
    THE LONG RED THREAD HOW DEMOCRATIC DOMINANCE GAVE WAY TO REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE IN U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ELECTIONS, 1964-2018 by Kyle Kondik A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland September 2019 © 2019 Kyle Kondik All Rights Reserved Abstract This history of U.S. House elections from 1964-2018 examines how Democratic dominance in the House prior to 1994 gave way to a Republican advantage in the years following the GOP takeover. Nationalization, partisan realignment, and the reapportionment and redistricting of House seats all contributed to a House where Republicans do not necessarily always dominate, but in which they have had an edge more often than not. This work explores each House election cycle in the time period covered and also surveys academic and journalistic literature to identify key trends and takeaways from more than a half-century of U.S. House election results in the one person, one vote era.

  • How White Supremacy Returned to Mainstream Politics
    GETTY CORUM IMAGES/SAMUEL How White Supremacy Returned to Mainstream Politics By Simon Clark July 2020 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG How White Supremacy Returned to Mainstream Politics By Simon Clark July 2020 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 4 Tracing the origins of white supremacist ideas 13 How did this start, and how can it end? 16 Conclusion 17 About the author and acknowledgments 18 Endnotes Introduction and summary The United States is living through a moment of profound and positive change in attitudes toward race, with a large majority of citizens1 coming to grips with the deeply embedded historical legacy of racist structures and ideas. The recent protests and public reaction to George Floyd’s murder are a testament to many individu- als’ deep commitment to renewing the founding ideals of the republic. But there is another, more dangerous, side to this debate—one that seeks to rehabilitate toxic political notions of racial superiority, stokes fear of immigrants and minorities to inflame grievances for political ends, and attempts to build a notion of an embat- tled white majority which has to defend its power by any means necessary. These notions, once the preserve of fringe white nationalist groups, have increasingly infiltrated the mainstream of American political and cultural discussion, with poi- sonous results. For a starting point, one must look no further than President Donald Trump’s senior adviser for policy and chief speechwriter, Stephen Miller. In December 2019, the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Hatewatch published a cache of more than 900 emails2 Miller wrote to his contacts at Breitbart News before the 2016 presidential election.

Acknowledgments & Dedication Lord Acton wrote, “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men.” In politics, academia, science, business, media and even religion, the record of history confirms Acton’s aphorism. True greatness is found in a heart of non-negotiable norms and nobility; a life that transforms the world for good. Most so- called ‘conservative’ and/or ‘Christian’ leaders today are polished but treacherous, seeking their own career advancement over real reformation.

  • Distributism Debate
    The Distributism Debate The Distributism Debate Dane J. Weber Donald P. Goodman III Eds. GP Goretti Publications Dozenal numeration is a system of thinking of numbers in twelves, rather than tens. Twelve is much more versatile, having four even divisors—2, 3, 4, and 6—as opposed to only two for ten. This means that such hatefulness as “0.333. ” for 1/3 and “0.1666. ” for 1/6 are things of the past, replaced by easy “0;4” (four twelfths) and “0;2” (two twelfths). In dozenal, counting goes “one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, elv, dozen; dozen one, dozen two, dozen three, dozen four, dozen five, dozen six, dozen seven, dozen eight, dozen nine, dozen ten, dozen elv, two dozen, two dozen one. ” It’s written as such: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, X, E, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 1X, 1E, 20, 21... Dozenal counting is at once much more efficient and much easier than decimal counting, and takes only a little bit of time to get used to. Further information can be had from the dozenal societies (http:// www.dozenal.org), as well as in many other places on the Internet. © 2006 (11E2) Dane J. Weber and Donald P.

Introduction The Plaintiff in this action is seeking to compel the City of Charlottesville to allow a massive demonstration in Emancipation Park, a small urban park located in Downtown Charlottesville.1 While the original application for the demonstration submitted by the Plaintiff, who is the event organizer, stated that there would be 400 attendees, the projected number of 1 While suing the City for permission to use the Park, the Plaintiff apparently feels that injunctive relief from the Court is not necessary. After announcing on his Twitter account that this lawsuit to “reinstate” his permit had been filed, he tweeted that “We go either way”. Case 3:17-cv-00056-GEC Document 10 Filed 08/11/17 Page 1 of 19 Pageid#: 97 both demonstrators and counter-demonstrators has increased dramatically over the past month, due largely to the internet-based marketing efforts by the Plaintiff. While he has submitted supplemental requests to the City for the rally since his initial application2, he has never bothered to update or revise the outdated estimate of 400 people. The City‘s conservative estimate of the number of individuals attending the rally is no less than 1,000, with as many as 2,000 or more counter-demonstrators in attendance.
