It’s easy to believe the worst is over in the economic downturn. But for African-Americans, the pain continues — over 13 percent of black workers are unemployed, nearly twice the national average. And that’s not a new development: regardless of the economy, job prospects for African-Americans have long been significantly worse than for the country as a whole. The most obvious explanation for this entrenched disparity is racial discrimination. But in my research I have found a somewhat different culprit: favoritism. Getting an inside edge by using help from family and friends is a powerful, hidden force driving inequality in the United States. Such favoritism has a strong racial component. Through such seemingly innocuous networking, white Americans tend to help other whites, because social resources are concentrated among whites. If African-Americans are not part of the same networks, they will have a harder time finding decent jobs. (via How Social Networks Drive Black Unemployment - NYTimes.com)

Gotta love the officiating of this series. Red Wings are lousy sports.

5:20: I want to put Etem and Cogs out on the PK together again, and just play the Speed Racer theme the whole time they kill the penalty, complete with crazy zoomed in multiclor things.

Gloria Jones - Tainted Love (1964 Version)
last thing
ok where was that post that was going around earlier about how white musicians cover black folks music and everyone acts like the white folks did it first
cause i didn’t even realize the 80s pop version by whatever white boy band version of this song was a cover
and im fucking pissed about it
this isn’t something that stopped with elvis
everybody but black folks can get praise and paid for making black music
At least in Jazz this sort of thing is done playfully and respectfully. Pop/Rock has a weird history with it and just can’t do it right.
Back to playing find the sample in hip hop and electronic jams.
