The Buzz Behind the Buzz:

When Karen E. Quinones Miller self published her first novel, Satin Doll, she not only sold 28,000 copies, but the feat led to a publishing deal with Simon and Schuster for six figures. Miller, who has since gone on to become a best-selling author, makes it  her regular practice  to help numerous aspiring authors attain their goals.  Now, in an effort to reach out even further, she has written a pamphlet on how to self-publish that is not only affordable, but easy to understand.  The Self-Publishing Pamphlet sells for only six dollars and can be purchased at the website www.selfpublishingsite.com .

Topics included in the 27-page pamphlet include:

     -how to set up your publishing company;

     -how to obtain ISBNs and barcodes;

     -how to do your own typesetting,

     -what to look for in an editor and much much more.

"I've given quite a number of self-publishing/publishing seminars here in Philly — and have always had to turn people away due to lack of room," says Miller, an Essence bestselling author who also wrote I'm Telling, Ida B., and Passin' - all published by major publishing houses such as Simon & Schuster, Warner Books and Grand Central Books.

Linked: Philly Video shows police beating restrained suspects. Another case of "Overworked and Stressed" Officers

An internal investigation is under way into the videotaped beatings of three men by several Philadelphia police officers, according to Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey. At least eight officers are seen either kicking, punching or striking the suspects with batons while the men lie restrained on the ground. The video, shot by WTXF-TV in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, shows at least a dozen police officers pulling the men — who were suspected to have been involved in a shooting — out of a car after a vehicle chase Monday night. Two men are struck some 20 times. SideBuzz: In September, during heighten Jena Six issue, Philly put out a call for 10,000 Black men to help tamed the streets of Philly. This was suppose to help curve violence that could errupt in the form of brutality. Once again we have a commissioner citing stressed and overworked officers. Now what? Stress levels among officers on the street are "simply too high," and the department aims to eliminate 12-hour shifts, Ramsey said.

What's Up With That Brother: How to See Eye to Eye With Obama? The Story of Barack Obama's Mother -- Time Magazine


Trying to See Eye to Eye With Obama

Since the start of the presidential race, we've been asked to see the world through Obama's eyes, outside of America's race construct. When the brother stood in victory in South Carolina, a victory claimed for the black vote, and said he doesn't see race.  It ruffled my feathers.  Then his absence from the State of the Black union clearly seemed like a "miss opportunity" to me.  Even despite Obama having known Jeremiah Wright for twenty years, they themselves can't agree on the appropriate time, or place, to talk about differing backgrounds. I'll keep trying to meet Obama where he is and where he's headed — to the White House as President of America. How can I see the world through his eyes and can he see the world through mine?

Maybe I would understand more, if I knew where his world began? With that question, I got my Google on and found an article from TIME, see the excerpt below then read more.  We might have a world in common.

|: In most elections, the deceased mother of a candidate in the primaries is not the subject of a magazine profile. But Ann Soetoro was not like most mothers. Barack Obama's mother was at least a dozen things. S. Ann Soetoro was a teen mother who later got a Ph.D. in anthropology; a white woman from the Midwest who was more comfortable in Indonesia; a natural-born mother obsessed with her work; a romantic pragmatist, if such a thing is possible. It turns out that Obama's nascent career peddling hope is a family business. He inherited it. And while it is true that he has not been profoundly tested, he was raised by someone who was. That's something we just have to understand. |:

Elder D.J. Ward
Lexington, KY
Pastor of Main Street Baptist Church...

Elder Ward, pastor of Lexington’s Main Street Baptist Church for the past 19 years, died of complications from lung cancer Friday at Hospice Care Center at St. Joseph Hospital.

Elder Ward was a 24-hour-a-day pastor who liked to preach series of sermons, said Florene McGhee, his assistant for the past 31 years. His last sermon at the church, on April 13, pertained to the book of Romans. Many of his Sunday sermons for the past five years had been about passages in the book of Romans, she said.

Elder Ward came to Main Street Baptist Church from Mount Zion Baptist Church in Oak Ridge, Tenn., where he preached for 17 years. Before that, he pastored Mount Olivet Baptist Church in Hendersonville, Tenn., for four years.

A native of Murray, he was a graduate of Murray’s Douglass High School. He received a degree in theology from American Baptist Theological Seminary in Nashville. [Source: Kentucky.com - Jennifer Hewlett]

Domino's 'Delivering the Dream' Program Opens Doors

Al Daniels is not your typical business owner. He is a military veteran, a philanthropist and someone who is eager to give back to his community. Daniels is a prime example of franchisees that Domino's Pizza is looking to recruit as part of its "Delivering the Dream" program. This program, coupled with Daniel's inspiration to succeed, led to the grand opening of his Domino's Pizza store in Brunswick, Ga., on Dec. 19, 2007. Domino's Pizza's "Delivering the Dream" program, in partnership with American Equipment Finance, LLC, grants financial assistance to elite minority team members so they may build their own Domino's stores.

GYGO: How to Enjoy The Second Half Of Life?

How to Enjoy the Second Half Of Live?


As a mother, I've got 21 years experience, not that life prepared me, but I've been doing it that long. Came home from the hospital with my first bundle in 1987 and I jumped right into action. Three more trips later, I had my family. Today, as my 2nd child prepares to leave home, they tell me "mom its time to get a life!"

So I googled "How to Enjoy The Second Half Of Life?" This year is the first time in I find myself not waking up at the crack of dawn. In fact, by the time I wake, the kids, dressed and headed to school. Last week I caught my son, my youngest, doing his own laundry. Now you know my weekend was shot. Well I beg their pardon. I thought I had a life, I didn't know I needed a second one. Though I still have two kids at home, parenting them has been reduced to "Mom can I get the card?" "The" card? Maybe if I stamp a hologram on my forehead, I could get some love too.

Seriously I didn't expect them to need me forever. In fact I was often excited to have them when I did so that I could have a second life. But now that's its here, what do I do? From the BRAIN aka Google, either I've got a fear or phobia; need acupuncture; or should buy a book or write a book.

When I added keywords "when single" to the search, it came back that I should look forward to sex after 50 (OMG); should know about a 100 secrets to the best life; there was something about a race against time and psychotherapy, and lastly a few links about travel. Whew! My 4 trips to the hospital was easier than this or at least it was less complicated.

To be continued....(by the way I decided on the trip)

Sharpton Calls For Civil Disobedience Response To Bell Case

T
The Reverend Al Sharpton delivered a live radio address Saturday morning at his National Action Network headquarters in Harlem, to call for action following the full acquittals of the three detectives in the Sean Bell shooting.

Following Sharpton's rally, another group about 250 protesters marched through East Harlem between 125th Street to 145th. "This is the first of many other civil disobediences that our organization, along with National Action and many others around the country, will come into the city until justice prevails," said Chairman Salaam Ismial of the National United Youth Council. "Young men have been dying at the hands of police officers too long in New York City."

DryerBuzz (y.lattimore)
— In 2008, African Americans still largely represent America's labor pool. With every paycheck, Uncle Sam dips in and takes what he wants. Tax Refund or not, America gets a free no interest loan from the households of which its justice system and race construct seeks to oppress.

Economic justice through buying power is a farce and leaders should be ashamed to deliver their followers so blindly. Buying power itself is a punch line while local, state, and federal taxes is the bottom line. The amount of taxes withheld from the system can be measured, unlike the modern day boycotts proposed in 2007/2008. Most importantly withholding taxes could cause an economic stimulus for businesses in our community, not to mention a stimulus for building a true infrastructure for which we could exist.

On top of that, withholding taxes would bring measured accountability of those who live off our tax dollars. Our "leaders" should propose not a one day slow of the flow as in shopping, but a real economic barricade asking conscious Black America to slow the flow of their free loans to a system which oppresses. During a 30 day or let's say 2 month period this money should be redirected into personal savings, infrastructures, and institutions.

African Americans spend $60,000,0000 on an average Black movie opening weekend. There's no block buster this month, where will the money go?
