![]() ![]() ![]() The lynchings of Italians came at a time when newspapers in the South had established the gory convention of advertising the far more numerous public murders of African-Americans in advance - to attract large crowds - and justifying the killings by labeling the victims “brutes,” “fiends,” “ravishers,” “born criminals” or “troublesome Negroes.” Even high-minded news organizations that claimed to abhor the practice legitimized lynching by trafficking in racist stereotypes about its victims.Īs Mr. A striking analysis by Charles Seguin, a sociologist at Pennsylvania State University, and Sabrina Nardin, a doctoral student at the University of Arizona, shows that the protests lodged by the Italian government inspired something that had failed to coalesce around the brave African-American newspaper editor and anti-lynching campaigner Ida B. Historians have recently showed that America’s dishonorable response to this barbaric event was partly conditioned by racist stereotypes about Italians promulgated in Northern newspapers like The Times. The proclamation was part of a broader attempt to quiet outrage among Italian-Americans, and a diplomatic blowup over the murders that brought Italy and the United States to the brink of war. The rationale for the holiday was steeped in myth, and allowed Italian-Americans to write a laudatory portrait of themselves into the civic record.įew who march in Columbus Day parades or recount the tale of Columbus’s voyage from Europe to the New World are aware of how the holiday came about or that President Benjamin Harrison proclaimed it as a one-time national celebration in 1892 - in the wake of a bloody New Orleans lynching that took the lives of 11 Italian immigrants. ![]() The federal holiday honoring the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus - celebrated on Monday - was central to the process through which Italian-Americans were fully ratified as white during the 20th century. This left them vulnerable to marauding mobs like the ones that hanged, shot, dismembered or burned alive thousands of black men, women and children across the South. Italians who had come to the country as “free white persons” were often marked as black because they accepted “black” jobs in the Louisiana sugar fields or because they chose to live among African-Americans. The penalties of blackness went well beyond name-calling in the apartheid South. Mulberry Street in the Little Italy section of New York around 1900. ![]() They were described in the press as “swarthy,” “kinky haired” members of a criminal race and derided in the streets with epithets like “dago,” “guinea” - a term of derision applied to enslaved Africans and their descendants - and more familiarly racist insults like “white nigger” and “nigger wop.” As the historian Jennifer Guglielmo writes, the newcomers encountered waves of books, magazines and newspapers that “bombarded Americans with images of Italians as racially suspect.” They were sometimes shut out of schools, movie houses and labor unions, or consigned to church pews set aside for black people. Racist dogma about Southern Italians found fertile soil in the United States. In Italy, Northerners had long held that Southerners - particularly Sicilians - were an “uncivilized” and racially inferior people, too obviously African to be part of Europe. The story of how Italian immigrants went from racialized pariah status in the 19th century t o white Americans in good standing in the 20th offers a window onto the alchemy through which race is constructed in the United States, and how racial hierarchies can sometimes change.ĭarker skinned southern Italians endured the penalties of blackness on both sides of the Atlantic. Journalists, politicians, social scientists and immigration officials embraced the habit, separating ostensibly white Europeans into “races.” Some were designated “whiter” - and more worthy of citizenship - than others, while some were ranked as too close to blackness to be socially redeemable. The calculus of racism underwent swift revision when waves of culturally diverse immigrants from the far corners of Europe changed the face of the country.Īs the historian Matthew Frye Jacobson shows in his immigrant history “Whiteness of a Different Color,” the surge of newcomers engendered a national panic and led Americans to adopt a more restrictive, politicized view of how whiteness was to be allocated. Congress envisioned a white, Protestant and culturally homogeneous America when it declared in 1790 that only “free white persons, who have, or shall migrate into the United States” were eligible to become naturalized citizens. ![]()

![]() ![]() Tissue damage: "Damaged tissue can become inflamed and swollen, creating a bump," says King.Adds King: "If treated, these will resolve over time, but the piercing may need to be removed to treat them." Allergic reaction or infection: "In some cases, piercing bumps may be related to a cyst or an allergy," says board-certified dermatologist Marisa Garshick, MD."Keloids can be challenging to treat, but there are treatment options that can make them smaller." Keloids: "A keloid is a kind of raised scar," explains King.Granulomas: "The body's immune system can wall off a foreign body (the piercing) or infection with inflammatory cells, forming a granuloma," says board-certified dermatologist Hadley King, MD.She notes while this process is sometimes benign, "in some cases, the underlying cause may be something other than inflammation and may need medical intervention to resolve." Some specific types and causes of piercing bumps include: Piercing bumps "can be the body's immune system responding to the wound from the piercing, causing some localized inflammation which, in turn, causes the bump," explains board-certified family nurse practitioner Alexandra Moench, DNP of Schweiger Dermatology Group. Read on to learn exactly how to care for a piercing bump straight from the experts. ![]() After that, simple remedies, time, and patience will help you cure any unsightly swelling. To do that, you have to identify the type of bump you're dealing with, where it is located on your body, and how it got there in the first place. Still, the bump needs to be properly treated. "It's important to understand before you get a piercing that it takes a level of patience and dedication to earn your piercing wings," says pro piercer J. Even if you're meticulous about your care and serious about the healing process, a piercing bump can rear its head. If you feel a bump on a piercing, there's no need to panic. ![]() ![]() Even short bouts of activity add up, and many experts (as well as the guidelines) argue that it’s better to spread them out, says Laura Carstensen, PhD, director of the Stanford Center on Longevity in California. That’s approximately half an hour a day during the workweek, and the activity does not have to come from just a single gym session. ![]() How to Do It To get the most health benefits from physical activity, adults need at least 150 to 300 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity (such as brisk walking or fast dancing) each week, as well as muscle-strengthening activity, like lifting weights or doing push-ups, at least two days each week, according to guidelines issued by the President’s Council on Physical Fitness. Why It’s Important Regular physical activity has been shown to counteract normal muscle aging and help preserve lean muscle mass, research shows. Make Sure You’re Getting Some Physical Activity Longevity experts share eight things you can do every day to make your golden years really shine. The key is to start building those healthy habits now.

![]() And just a heads up- you may need a little more or less of the cereal crumbs depending on how large your slices of bread are. Double the wax paper over the cornflakes first before rolling into a finer crumb helps keep them better in place. On a large sheet of wax paper, you’ll need a rolling pin to crush the cornflakes. Try to get it to a bread crumb texture and you will be in great shape for coating the bread. Beat the eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt together in a large mixing bowl until well combined. Other cereals may work best if crushed with a rolling pin or in a food processor. ![]() Chex cereals crush easily by hand in a zippered bag, which can be a fun job for little kids. ![]() If you are wondering if you can use another flavor of Chex Cereal or an entirely different cereal, you absolutely can! Just make sure to crush it up very well. Add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar, Cinnamon Toast Crunch powder, cinnamon, and vanilla, and mix on low until incorporated, then raise the speed to medium-high and beat until creamy. Dunk bread in the egg mixture, soaking both sides. Add the butter and cream cheese to a bowl, and cream with a mixer for about 2 minutes, until fluffy. Lightly butter a griddle or skillet and heat over medium-high heat. As long as you like the bread normally, I would think that you will enjoy it as Vanilla Crunch French Toast too! Whisk milk, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt together in a shallow bowl. I have used several varieties of Canyon Bakehouse and Udi’s gluten free sandwich breads for this recipe.

About the BreadĪlthough I still haven’t found a really fantastic gluten free Challah to make french toast with, I have made this recipe with several different gluten free breads and it has turned out SUPER fantastic every time. Fortunately, it was easy to make a delicious gluten free version and I only switched up a few ingredients. This gluten free Vanilla Crunch French Toast is my updated version of the old recipe. I would coat it with crushed Frosted Flakes before frying it. Back in my gluten eating days, I made french toast using day old Challah. ![]() ![]() ![]() At night, both drivers acknowledge each other by flashing their off-side direction indicators headlights immediately before or as they pass. It is customary for both drivers to then acknowledge each other with a wave as they pass. When opposing traffic is encountered, the first driver to reach the nearest passing place pulls over, no matter which side, and flashes the headlights to signal the other car to proceed forward. In Scotland, and places like the Isle of Man most drivers are accustomed to single-track roads. When two vehicles meet head-on, generally the drivers confer to decide in which direction lies the closest wide spot, and together they travel there, the lead vehicle necessarily in reverse gear. If lines of sight are long, and both drivers are familiar with the road, vehicles heading towards each other can adjust their speed so as to arrive at a wide spot at the same time and pass slowly, avoiding the need for either vehicle to stop.

This section possibly contains original research. An example of this is the M-89 reconstruction project in Plainwell, Michigan, where westbound traffic is detoured via county roads around town. A modification of this for roadways that have heavier traffic volumes is to maintain one direction on the existing roadway, and detour the other, thus not requiring the use of flaggers. ![]() The workers, who communicate through yelling, hand gestures, or radio, will periodically reverse their signs to allow time for traffic to flow in each direction. When reconstruction is being done on two-lane highways where traffic is moderately heavy, a worker will often stand at each end of the construction zone, holding a sign with "SLOW" or "GO" written on one side and "STOP" on the reverse. The reason behind this procedure is that traffic going north is in somewhat of a hurry to deliver equipment to Deadhorse, Prudhoe Bay, and the drill site over the frozen Arctic Ocean. The mountain passes on the Dalton Highway in Alaska have a rule where goods-carrying northbound truck traffic has the right of way, while returning southbound traffic has to stop, as mentioned on Ice Road Truckers. The most common example of private single-track roads are long driveways of rural properties such as country houses and farm property. Exit and entrance ramps for freeways and motorways are among common examples of one-way single-track roads. ![]() Single-track roads also exist as one-way stretches. Tunnels in remote areas can also be one lane when the tunnel is short and traffic is low, when building a hill or blasting away the mountain is too cost-prohibitive. Sometimes, for budget reasons, and where traffic is fairly low, bridges exist as single-track corridors. At least in California, it is also the vehicle going downhill that must back up, if it is too late to stop at a wide spot.Ĭhicanes are often placed on residential streets as a more aesthetic means to slow down cars. The reason seems to be that it may be harder for the vehicle going up to get started again. When practical, it is usually considered better for the vehicle going downhill to yield the right of way by stopping at a wide spot. In Peru, the second of two overland transportation routes between Cuzco and Madre de Dios Region, a 300 km heavy-truck route, is a single-track road of gravel and dirt. Forest Service and logging roads in the United States. In remote backcountry areas around the world, particularly in mountains, many roads are single-track and unmarked. One-lane road in California, United States In 2009, the A830 "Road to the Isles" and A851 on the Isle of Skye have had their single-track sections replaced with higher-quality single-carriageway road. Some A-class and B-class roads in the Highlands are still single-track, although many sections have been widened for the sake of faster travel. Sometimes two small vehicles can pass one another at a place other than a designated passing place. The same system is found very occasionally in rural England and Wales, as well as Sai Kung District in the New Territories. Signs remind drivers of slower vehicles to pull over into a passing place (or opposite it, if it is on the opposite side of the road) to let following vehicles pass, and most drivers oblige. On some roads, especially in Argyll and Bute, passing places are marked with black-and-white-striped posts. New signs tend to be square rather than diamond-shaped, as diamond signs are also used for instructions to tram drivers in cities. Passing places are generally marked with a diamond-shaped white sign with the words "passing place" on it. The term is widely used in Scotland, particularly the Highlands, to describe such roads.

Larger wheels are better for frequent use and traveling over high pile carpet. Smaller wheels experience more stress during use and tend to be more difficult to roll. These different considerations will dictate which caster size, material and tread are best suited for you and your needs.

Simplicity – Once we started to add more features to Buddy Punch, it became clear there was a possibility that our software would become too complicated on either the administrative side or for employees. Never should a manager have to wonder “Who’s Working?” This was achieved through time activity features such as GPS tracking, Geofencing, OT Calculations, and Drag & Drop Shift Scheduling.
