The Village of the Great Kivas on the Zuni Reservation, New Mexico,
by Frank H. H. Roberts. Jr., 1932.
The 16th Amendment says Congress may tax incomes without
apportionment but, it does not state that the 16th Amendment is
superior to any other amendments and all other provisions of the
Constitution. Therefore, Congress and the IRS have no authority to
require U.S. citizens and residents to waive their rights under the
Constitution, e.g., the 4th and 5th Amendments. But, this is
exactly what is being done with respect to the administration and
collection of U.S. income taxes. This is a fraud on the public.
Before this fraud becomes more readily understood by the populace
at large, it would be prudent for Congress to: (1) Replace the U.S.
individual income tax with a national sales or consumption tax; (2)
get rid of the Gestapo Tactics of the IRS in forcing people to
waive their rights; and (3) start the amendment process in Article
V of the Constitution to abolish the 16th Amendment.

There are many books available on how to deal with an IRS audit.
Unfortunately for the Self-Employed and Small Business Owners
selected for audit, most of these books are written from the
perspective that everything the IRS does is constitutional; and,
the audit process is a game that can be handled successfully by
providing the requested documents. Here's the Real Deal; (1) the
IRS will NOT play fair; (2) the IRS will NOT follow their own
written rules & regulations; and (3) the IRS will NOT honor the
Taxpayer Bill of Rights. The purpose of this book is to help you
Prepare for, Control, and Successfully Survive an IRS Audit. We
will take you step by step through the process and give YOU the
information and power to control and survive your IRS audit. This

This volume covers the language situation in Fiji, The Philippines
and Vanuatu explaining the linguistic diversity, the historical and
political contexts and the current language situation, including
language-in-education planning, the role of the media, the role of
religion, and the roles of non-indigenous languages. The authors
are indigenous and/or have been participants in the language
planning context. Fiji and Vanuatu are not well represented in the
international language policy/planning literature, while the
section on the Philippines draws together the published literature
in this area. The purpose of the volumes in this series is to
present up-to-date information on polities that are not well-known
to researchers in the field. A longer range purpose is to collect
comparable information on as many polities as possible in order to
facilitate the development of a richer theory to guide language
policy and planning in other polities that undertake the
development of a national policy on languages. This volume is part
of an areal series which is committed to providing descriptions of
language planning and policy in countries around the world.
This volume covers the language situation in Botswana, Malawi,
Mozambique and South Africa explaining the linguistic diversity,
the historical and political contexts and the current language
situation, including language-in-education planning, the role of
the media, the role of religion, and the roles of non-indigenous
languages. The authors are indigenous and have been participants in
the language planning context.
This is the second volume in the NATO ASI series dealing with the
topic of hydrogen in solids. The first (V. B76, Metal Hydrides)
appeared five years ago and focussed primarily on crystalline
phases of hydrided metallic systems. In the intervening period, the
amorphous solid state has become an area of intense research
activity, encompassing both metallic and non-metallic, e.g.
semiconducting, systems. At the same time the problem of storage of
hydrogen, which motivated the first ASI, continues to be important.
In the case of metallic systems, there were early indications that
metallic glasses and disordered alloys may be more corrosion
resistant, less susceptible to embrittlement by hydrogen and have a
higher hydrogen mobility than ordered metals or intermetallics. All
of these properties are desirable for hydrogen storage. Subsequent
research has shown that thermodynamic instability is a severe
problem in many amorphous metal hydrides. The present ASI has
provided an appropriate forum to focus on these issues.
In 1964, less than one year into his tenure as publisher of the
Bogalusa Daily News, New Orleans native Lou Major found himself
guiding the newspaper through a turbulent period in the history of
American civil rights. Bogalusa, Louisiana, became a flashpoint for
clashes between African Americans advocating for equal treatment
and white residents who resisted this change, a conflict that
generated an upsurge in activity by the Ku Klux Klan. Local members
of the KKK stepped up acts of terror and intimidation directed
against residents and institutions they perceived as sympathetic to
civil rights efforts. During this turmoil, the Daily News took a
public stand against the Klan and its platform of hatred and white
supremacy. Against the Klan, Major's memoir of those years,
recounts his attempts to balance the good of the community, the
health of the newspaper, and the safety of his family. He provides
an in-depth look at the stance the Daily News took in response to
the city's civil rights struggles, including the many fiery
editorials he penned condemning the KKK's actions and urging
peaceful relations in Bogalusa. Major's richly detailed personal
account offers a ground-level view of the challenges local
journalists faced when covering civil rights campaigns in the Deep
South and of the role played by the press in exposing the nefarious
activities of hate groups such as the Klan.
Blues Hall of Fame Inductee, 2019 - A "Classic of Blues Literature"
In 1941 and '42 African American scholars from Fisk
University-among them the noted composer and musicologist John W.
Work III, sociologist Lewis Wade Jones, and graduate student Samuel
C. Adams Jr.-joined folklorist Alan Lomax of the Library of
Congress on research trips to Coahoma County, Mississippi. Their
mission was "to document adequately the cultural and social
backgrounds for music in the community." Among the fruits of the
project were the earliest recordings by the legendary blues singer
and guitarist Muddy Waters. The hallmark of the study was to have
been a joint publication of its findings by Fisk and the Library of
Congress. While this publication was never completed, Lost Delta
Found is composed of the writings, interviews, notes, and musical
transcriptions produced by Work, Jones, and Adams in the Coahoma
County study. Their work captures, with compelling immediacy, a
place, a people, a way of life, and a set of rich musical
traditions as they existed in the 1940s.
Developed in response to the 1899 Hague Convention, the 37-mm gun
met the restrictions on the size of weapons that could fire
explosive shells, yet was also light and lethal enough to be used
in battle. After World War I, in which the French Model 1916 37-mm
was used extensively, several countries developed or adopted the
37-mm gun. Behind in their development of an anti-tank gun, the
United States relied on the German Pak 36 37-mm design as a basis
for development. By the mid 1930s, the US Ordnance Department
designed the M3 37-mm gun and M4 carriage resulting in a towed
anti-tank gun, the first anti-tank gun in the U.S. Army. This gun
proved effective at the beginning of World War II, but as German
armour protection increased, it could not penetrate the frontal
armuor of many German tanks and was relegated to lesser roles.
However, the gun proved effective against the Japanese tanks and
Japanese strong points in the Far East. The US military used the
gun on several production and experimental armoured vehicles
including the M3 Lee Medium Tank, the M3 Stuart Light Tank, the M5
Stuart Light Tank, the M8 Armored Car, the T17E1 Staghound Armored
Car and the M3A1E3 Scout Car. The gun was also used on several
non-armoured vehicles, the P39 Aeracobra, and selected naval
vessels. Despite its small size, the U.S. M3 37-mm gun served
throughout the war, on many vehicles and performed exactly as
designed. Fully illustrated, this is the first complete account of
the development and use of the US 37-mm gun in World War II.
This dynamic and comprehensive text from nationally renowned
scholars continues to demonstrate the profound influence African
Americans have had-and continue to have-on American politics. Using
two interrelated themes-the idea of universal freedom and the
concept of minority-majority coalitions-the text demonstrates how
the presence of Africans in the United States affected the founding
of the Republic and its political institutions and processes. The
authors show that through the quest for their own freedom in the
United States, African Americans have universalized and expanded
the freedoms of all Americans. New to the Ninth Edition * Updated
sections on intersectionality, dealing with issues of race and
gender. * Updated section on African American music, to include the
role of Hip Hop. * Updated sections on mass media coverage of
African Americans and the African American celebrity impact on
politics, adding new mention of the CROWN Act and the politics of
Black hair. * Updated section on the "Black Lives Matter" movement,
adding a new section on the "Me Too" movement. * Updated sections
on African Americans in Congress, with a new mention of the Squad.
* Updated voting behavior through the 2020 elections, connecting
the Obama years with the new administration. * A comparison of the
2016 and 2020 presidential elections. * A discussion of the way in
which race contributes to the polarization of American politics in
the 2020 presidential campaign. * An analysis of the racial
attitudes of President Trump, and the institutionally racist
policies of his administrations. * Updated chapter on state and
local politics, including a new section on state executive offices
and Black mayors. * Updated sections on material well-being
indicators, adding a new section on the coronavirus pandemic and
the Black community. * The first overall assessment of the Obama
administration in relation to domestic and foreign policy and
racial politics.

This manual provides laboratory-based learning experiences in
perceptually and psychosocially linked exercise assessment,
prescription, and programming. The primary pedagogic outcome is the
ability to use applied theory and practice in perceptual and
psychosocial exercise assessment and program design to promote the
adoption and maintenance of a physically active lifestyle,
enhancing overall health fitness. Perceptual and psychosocial
variables are presented in individual, stand-alone laboratory
modules that can supplement existing curricula such as exercise and
sport psychology, exercise physiology, exercise testing and
prescription, and exercise training and conditioning. In addition,
the complete modular set has a conceptual flow that allows its
presentation as an entire, laboratory-based course. The laboratory
modules are divided into three primary units: assessment
(theoretical constructs, scales and procedures, tests),
prescription (self-regulation, performance), and program
evaluation. The manual uses a unique format in which case studies
are embedded in the conceptual flow of each lab module facilitating
translation of laboratory results to real-world application. The
manual concludes with a discussion of perceptually and
psychosocially linked exercise prescription and programming
applications in public health, such as program monitoring and
adherence.
As our society ages, questions concerning the relations between
generations gain importance. The quality of human relations depends
on the quality of emotion communication, which is a significant
part of our daily interactions. Emotion expressions serve not only
to communicate how the expresser feels, but also to communicate
intentions (whether to approach or retreat) and personality traits
(such as dominance, trustworthiness, or friendliness) that
influence our decisions regarding whether and how to interact with
a person. Emotion Communication by the Aging Face and Body
delineates how aging affects emotion communication and person
perception by bringing together research across multiple
disciplines. Scholars and graduate students in the psychology of
aging, affective science, and social gerontology will benefit from
this over-view and theoretical framework.
The process of controlling criminal investigations is a complex
matter, yet it has frequently been minimized or neglected in police
management publications. But knowing how to properly plan for an
event, make resource agreements with other participants in the
investigation, and implement a coordinating system within the
agency is critical to proper case control in a department. Now in
its second edition, Managing and Coordinating Major Criminal
Investigations details a methodology that is adaptable to any
existing record or control system. This new edition features an
expanded outline format, more detailed instructions, and updated
case systems. It also reflects the introduction of new technology
developed since the benchmark first edition. Designed so that users
can determine the necessary requirements to meet their individual
needs, the book aids in the thinking and direction required to
accomplish this task. Decisionmakers in small and large agencies
can tailor the system to their specifications, retaining
flexibility to decide the applications, degree of implementation,
and usage. Filled with concrete, specific guidelines and
time-tested wisdom from a law enforcement veteran, this book
provides police supervisors with the essential tools needed to
improve or develop a systemic approach to the control of major
investigations. More importantly, it helps to create the necessary
mindsets required in supervisors to manage any major crime
effectively.
This volume focuses on language planning in the Cameroon, Sudan and
Zimbabwe, explaining the linguistic diversity, historical and
political contexts, current language situation (including
language-in-education planning), the role of the media, the role of
religion and the roles of non-indigenous languages. The authors are
indigenous to the situations described, and draw on their
experience and extensive fieldwork there. The extended case studies
contained in this volume draw together the literature on each of
the polities to present an overview of the existing research
available, while also providing new research-based information. The
purpose of this volume is to provide an up-to-date overview of the
language situation in each polity based on a series of key
questions, in the hope that this might facilitate the development
of a richer theory to guide language policy and planning in other
polities where similar issues may arise. This book comprises case
studies originally published in the journal Current Issues in
Language Planning.
