@Gary yeah, they have all the classic stuff. Pork chop sandwiches. Macaroni with egg & toast. Milk tea. Curry chicken. Horlick's.

Thousands of Yemeni migrants are stuck in Djibouti who thought they would get visas b/c they have family in the States. Of course, that's not happening. I have Yemeni friends in Brooklyn, and if I wasn't infuriated already..........................................

Should we go chronological, or does anyone have a request for next set?

this set is reminding me about this cool story I read this week about Anthony Wong finding his long lost half brothers: www.bbc.com...

The beginnings of Rasta-Fari started in the 1920s, heck Marcus Garvey was aware of the movement, and he died before wwii (?)

@NGH - yah man! But I wonder how far back there are pop songs about it.
@Gary - that Zoe Kouroukli was fab!

There's mention of the earliest rastafari track in Solid Foundation, I think

Any rebetika?

Not that I know of, NGH -- I think just rock and laika
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:12pm northguineahills:

I had a classmate/coworker who was Greek who had his father's vinyl rebetika collection. He had no use for vinyl, and surprised I was enthusiastic about it, so he gave me a stack of rebetika vinyl. I'm still grateful.

Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:42pm northguineahills:

Another item in an infinite litany of scheiße that is pissing me off is not only has Trump reduced the Census Bureau's budget by 80%, but he want them to ask if that participant is a citizen. That will royally fuck up any count, as the immigrant community won't participate (I worked for four years as a geographer for the Census Bureau)
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 3/28/18 8:44pm Gary:

Every move of the administration has been to destroy whatever exists
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:46pm tim abdellah:

@NGH - agreed. I didn't realize that he'd slashed that bureau's budget so drastically. I work in Affirmative Action/Equal Employment, and we rely on census data to produce our employment metrics for women and minorities. This is terrible news.
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:46pm tim abdellah:

@Gary - this set rules!
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:52pm northguineahills:

@Tim: As a former demographer, it's something I'm rather passionate about.
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:56pm northguineahills:

@tim: from my conversations w/ my former colleagues, it looks like the 2016 Census est might be the last accurate one for the foreseeable future.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Wed. 3/28/18 8:58pm Scraps deSelby:

there's still time for the dems to take power, before the census, and reverse that stupid (well, racist, really, it's not stupid) decision.
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 8:59pm tim abdellah:

@NGH - geez. that's awful to hear.
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 9:00pm northguineahills:

@Scraps: The planning for each decennial starts 7 years in advance and starts in motion four years in advance, it's way too late to change anything.

i'm talking about the question about citizenship, ngh.
Avatar Wed. 3/28/18 9:15pm northguineahills:

@Scraps: Well, things need to change in a hurry, b/c those forms will be printed in early 2019. Unless there's a blue tsunami, I don't count on it.

@Scraps: Oh, I can feel it, it's just seems like Murphy's law has been following me around the last few years, so it's hard for me to be too optimistic. Also, I hope you feel better! Thanks for adopting the stream!

The census thing is completely of a piece. The Repubs know they haven't got a prayer unless they fight dirty. Fortunately for them, that's been their go-to strategy for decades.
