Looking to get the best quality growing supplies for you medicinal marijuana? Go to Queen City Hydroponics!
Are you looking to grow your own medical marijuana? Are you tired of having to deal with unsavory characters to buy your weekly fix? Do you want to learn and buy the right stuff to grow your own high quality pot? There is no place I can think of that's better than Queen City Hydroponics (4732 Monroe Rd. Charlotte NC).
I have bought several UFO grow lights and some grow tents from Queen city hydroponics for great prices. The staff there is also extremely knowledgeable, understanding and very discreet. Just beware that the local Charlotte Mecklenburg police and vice do set up shop right outside and you will be photographed going in there.
You would think by now that the Charlotte Mecklenburg police and every other police force out there would grow up and start going after more serious crimes rather than people trying to grow a plant or two for their own medicinal use. Marijuana is proven to have numerous medicinal properties from making it so people with painful chronic conditions can cope to making it so people can have a better quality of life.
It is also been shown and proven in numerous experiments in trials both in the United States and in Canada that marijuana and the main ingredient in marijuana (THC) have antitumor properties. What that means is that they actually retard and even inhibit cancerous growth. People in Canada are using it right now for those purposes along with the usual feeling better.
Not everyone uses marijuana just to get "stoned." AIDS and terminal cancer patients have been using it for years to be able to get their appetite back and put on weight. It also helps to reduce eye pressure in people with glaucoma and similar related diseases and symptoms. Why the government in some states won't let us have this wonder drug – is due to stupidity and old laws that need to be changed.
California now has a proposition that could get passed that will give everyone in California the right to smoke marijuana and even grow their own on their own property. Hopefully soon North Carolina and all the other states in the US will have the same or similar rules passed. But until they do, be sure and understand that the Charlotte Vice and narcotics scumbags will be somewhere out in the parking lot photographing you on your way in or out.
But they cannot do anything to you and they won't do anything to you unless you resell what you grow. As long as you keep to yourself and grow for yourself they really will not mess with you here in Charlotte Mecklenburg. And if you want to grow some amazing highly potent marijuana the best place to get your supplies (obviously, other than seeds) is Queen city hydroponics on Monroe Road.
They have everything you could possibly need from LED lights, UFO's, grow tents, nutrients for your plants, etc… Plus I'm quite sure that everyone that works there is experienced in growing their own marijuana. This is the place that I learned how to grow some of the best stuff I've ever smoked. I learned how to grow some of the best strains out there like White Widow and AK-47 and numerous other strains.
So if you're looking to find out how to grow marijuana or to buy supplies to get you on your way there is no place better in Charlotte then Queen City Hydroponics. But just be sure you're not reselling what you grow because the vice will be in the know. If you are thinking of reselling be sure you have someone else go to Queen city hydroponics for you. And make sure it's not someone that can be connected to your grow site.
Happy growing and good luck – hopefully every state will make it legal to grow your own marijuana in the next few years. Smokey out – its 4:20 my good friend.

QC hydroponics sells like the highest level and most expensive equipment. You don't need to spend that kind of money to grow good quality pot. You can order the basic stuff you need off the internet for a fraction of the price.
I work at Queen City Hydroponics. We don't sell UFO's and never have. We don't condone illegal activity in any way.
Hey, nice post…..interesting and useful info……thnx!
Can I buy some good weed there at this Queen City Hydroponics place?
There's a new hydro store in Mooresville. Its on 150 east just past railroad tracks where 15 narrows down to 2 lanes on the left. The phone number is 704-658-9136. They opened about a week ago.

A 69-year-old school janitor in Sicily nicknamed "the poet" gunned down a religious education teacher on Saturday, shooting her dead before attempting to flee the scene, Italian media reported.
Giovanna Nobile, 54, had gone into the Pappalardo di Vittoria school in southern Sicily for a teachers' meeting and was confronted by Salvatore Lo Presti as she was leaving the building.
Lo Presti, known as "the poet" around school because of his passion for writing poems, shot her five times in the abdomen before another teacher tackled him and forced him to drop the gun.
The janitor, who was a few days off his retirement, fled the scene but was caught by police in a nearby street and arrested for murder.
"He was mad at the world, but he never did anything more than rant. He was a calm type really, I would never ever have thought he would be taken over by such rage," fellow janitor Biagio Cirica told Italian media.
"I've known him for nearly 30 years. Did he secretly hate her or did he have a weakness for her? How can we know," he said.

Are you an experienced archer and want to take archery to the next level?
The SAS Rage Compound Bow is the perfect choice for you!
With a price usually starting from below $200 it is still very affordable.
But you get an accurate and strong 70 LBS compound bow for your money.
Hi, I am Moritz and I have been shooting bows for many years.
After shooting for a while with beginner bows, I took the leap and got a real professional bow.
It is amazing how much power such bows have. You feel the difference in accuracy immediately.
Once you have tried such a bow, you will never go back to your old bows.
Especially when looking at the Pro Package, you will see that you get a lot of bow for your money.
Even when you only get the bow, you will have made a great deal.
Please note, that there are now arrows included.
You will need to buy some arrows extra.
I recommend 30″ carbon arrows or 30″ aluminum arrows.
The SAS Rage is a really strong bow.
The lowest you can set it to is 55 LBS. This means that this bow is not a bow for beginners!
The average person without archery experience will have problems when trying to draw a bow with 55 LBS draw weight.
And you can increase the draw weight to even 70 LBS.
That is even too much for me!
You need a strong upper body to draw a 70 LBS bow.
The compound bow is not only strong but also very fast.
The maximum speed of 270 FPS is really good for a bow.
Speed is important when you want to go hunting.
The SAS Rage Compound Bow is great for that!
Like all compound bows, this bow has cams that work like a pulley system.
When you start drawing the bow, you have to pull the whole draw weight yourself.
After a short time, the cams will kick in and it will get easier and easier to pull the string back.
When you are in full draw, you only need to hold 70% of the original draw weight.
That is the 70% let off. It makes it a breeze to hold the bow in full draw.
You can take your time for aiming and won't get tired too quickly.
The SAS Rage has a total bow length (axle to axle) of 35″ and its draw length ranges from 26″ to 30″.
Before you get this bow, you have to know or measure your personal draw length.
Same goes for the draw weight.
As I said, this bow starts at 55 LBS and is not suitable for beginners.
Please only get this bow, when its size and strength is right for you.
If it is, you can't do anything wrong with this bow.
It is great. I absolutely love it!
Want To Go Pro? – Get The Pro Package!
The basic bow doesn't come with any additional equipment.
If you want to spend a bit more, and don't want to worry about other essential equipment, the Pro Package is what you have to get.
Remember, that there are now arrows included!
While being a basic bow sight, it will help you improve your aim quickly.
Sight it in and you will notice that you will have a much easier time to hit your target regularly.
I was not that convinced by the arrow rest.
You can use it for some time to get used to the bow.
But if you already have another arrow rest, like a whisker biscuit arrow rest, I would go with that one.
This bow quiver can be attached and detached quickly.
It can hold up to 5 arrows at the same time.
Bow quivers are really great. They are the fastest way to gain access to your arrows.
When I am not shooting my longbow, I always use bow quivers.
In short, peep sights give you a similar experience like if you were aiming a gun.
Bring the peep sight in line with the bow sight pin and you will increase your accuracy a lot.
It has to be properly installed first of course.
Most compound bow archers use a mechanical release with their bow.
To use such a release correctly, you need a D-loop to attach it to.
A wrist sling is a sling that gets bound to your wrist.
When you release your arrow, the bow will naturally tip forward.
You can stop it from falling down either by holding it tightly with your hand or by using a wrist sling.
For higher accuracy, it is recommended to use a sling.
This will improve the follow through after each shot.
To round up the package there is a stabilizer included.
Stabilizers reduce rotation and other human errors when shooting a bow.
Most advanced recurve bow and compound bow archers use them to fine tune their technique.
The stabilizer that comes with this bow is a 8″ 6.5oz aluminum stabilizer.
How Good Is The SAS Rage Compound Bow Really?
For a low price like this, you get a really great compound bow for advanced archers!
Its draw and release are smooth and it shoots very accurately with a sight.
If you feel that it is a bit too loud, you can add some string or limb dampeners.
This bow is great for both target archery or hunting.
Its low weight of only 4.4 lb makes it easy to carry it around for a longer time.
I highly recommend the SAS Rage Compound Bow!
When you follow the link below, make sure to choose the correct bow.
There are two different colors and the Pro Package.
Conclusion: The SAS Rage Compound Bow Is Perfect For Pros!
As an experienced archer, you know what is important and what is not.
The SAS Rage Compound Bow is a fantastic bow for advanced archers and pros that will not let you down.
It is strong, fast, and very accurate.
You will feel like a sharpshooter!
Let me know whether you like this compound bow or not.
Leave me a comment below and we'll have a chat.
I bought a sas rage about a week ago, and I really like this bow.
I started archery about a year ago and after about five minutes with this bow I was drilling the bullsye at 30 yards I highly recommend this bow.
thanks a lot for your feedback on the SAS Rage Compound Bow.
I agree that it is a wonderful bow and highly accurate.
All the best and enjoy shooting your bow!

Addressing Small Fleet Safety Training on a Budget
October 23, 2018 • by Sadiah Thompson • Bookmark +
Brandon Folck, director of training standards for Ryder System Inc., encourages small fleets to approach the hiring and onboarding processes in two ways: create a company safety culture that promotes positive driver practices and utilize a training mechanism that is specific to the company's needs.

Hiring and onboarding new drivers are no easy tasks. Both are costly processes not only in terms of financial resources, but also in terms of time and productivity loss.
Recently, the American Trucking Association (ATA) reported that the annual turnover rate at large trucking fleets reached 88% at the end of 2017, while the rate at small trucking fleets hit 80%.
Despite the turnover rate for small fleets being lower than large truck fleets, the cost for small fleets is more substantial. Small fleets have to work twice as hard, with minimal resources, to ensure drivers receive adequate training, are compliant with the fleet's core safety values, and actually remain with the company.
"I think that if you ensure that, one, you have a compliant driver and, two, you're picking out the mechanism that ensures you're able to convey the pride, passion, and emotion that your company has for safety, you'll have somebody who will do well for you," Folck said during a Ryder webinar on training and onboarding.
Creating a Strong Safety Culture
For years, Ryder has simplified fleet management with structured programs geared toward safety and driver training, most notably with its Certified Driver Trainer (CDT) program.
Ryder CDTs — drivers certified and trained by the company's safety group — not only ensure that all newly hired drivers are trained online, but that they also are offer two to five days of hands-on training.
"It gives them an opportunity to know somebody, a fellow driver… to talk to and discuss issues and questions that they may not feel comfortable asking their location manager," Folck said. "It does create a relationship, and we have seen continued relationships after the onboarding process is completed."
While the onboarding process is different for every new driver, Folck advises small fleets to make certain that even before drivers hit the road, they have everything they need to drive efficiently — from obtaining their certified driver's license (CDL) to making sure they have the proper service vehicle.
What Drives Ryder's Training Program
Mobile technology and capabilities
Certified Driver Trainers (CDTs)
Partnership with Instructional Technologies Inc. (ITI)
Constructive feedback from stakeholders (Captain of Ship Policy)
Safety Scorecards (measures collision, incident, and loss rates)
"Your first step is to have a compliant employee because it helps you in no form or fashion to have a safe employee if that safe employee is not compliant, not even on the road," Folck said.
Utilizing Online Tech
Small fleet managers should employ a training mechanism that can track, verify, and ensure driver compliance all in one — without the hassle of additional paperwork or administrative tasks.
Laura McMillan, vice president of training development and professional services at Instructional Technologies Inc. (ITI) — the company that Ryder partners with for its Pro-TREAD online training platform — suggested that fleets who have limited resources and CDTs look to online training tools and dashboard metrics for guidance.
Based on the data acquired from online training, McMillan said small fleets can group drivers together in categories of high- and low-risk drivers, where high-risk drivers receive priority for additional online or behind-the-wheel training, while low-risk drivers receive training at a later date, depending on priority.
Even though there is less face-to-face interaction, the online process ultimately builds more transparency, as managers are able to track the level and amount of training a driver has received, and later, how compliant the driver is based on his or her safety scorecard.
"It can begin to explain [to drivers] what a company's understanding is around policies, procedures… what the air of safety is at that company, to ensure that they truly understand what's required of them," Folck said.
Getting Drivers On Board
Who says all employees can't monitor a fleet's safety operations? At Ryder, that's exactly the case with their captain of ship policy. The policy gives all employees the right to report on the fleet's safety operations without fear of retribution and without fear of a write-up, or worse, termination.
"They have the responsibility… to bring forward unsafe conditions as they see it," Folck said. "If you don't call captain of the ship, and you proceed in an unsafe situation, you're taking ownership of everything that happens thereafter."
Folck added the policy also helps in maintaining the fleet's relationships with veteran drivers, to ensure that they are still aware of the company's safety standards and that no one gets too comfortable.
"You've got to continue to provide some type of understanding of what needs to be done and should be done," he said. "We ensure that we work in providing the information necessary for those individuals, whether they [are] tenured drivers, old timers, as they say, or even our new drivers."
Empowering drivers to practice safe driver behavior not only enhances your fleet's overall safety culture, but it also helps to avoid additional training costs —which could potentially make your job as a small fleet manager much easier.

(Michael Paulson's article appeared in The New York Times, 4/25; via Pam Green.)
About that closing of "The Fantasticks": Never mind.
The producers of the long-running Off-Broadway staple, who announced last month that they would close the show in early May, said on Saturday that two unnamed fans had contributed enough money to keep it open indefinitely.
"The Fantasticks" has had near-death experiences before – in 2002, it closed, after 17,162 performances over 42 years, only to reopen in 2006.
The lead producer, Catherine Russell, said last month, "It has become increasingly challenging to sell lots of tickets consistently – we are either incredibly busy and selling out or selling fewer tickets that we have been in previous years."
But Ms. Russell has now reversed course.

Most of the market-leading waste and recycling containers made by Straight at its state-of-the-art factory in Hull bear the Carbon Reduction Label, including kerbside boxes, food waste caddies, wheeled containers and inner caddies, compost bins and water butts.
The Carbon Reduction Label demonstrates that products have undergone an assessment of their total greenhouse gas emissions at every stage of the product lifecycle, including production, transportation, preparation, use and disposal.
Straight was first awarded the Carbon Reduction Label in 2011 by undergoing a rigorous process through which a detailed lifecycle analysis was carried out and then audited by the Carbon Trust under the PAS 2050 standard. This standard was developed by the Carbon Trust in partnership with Defra, and was the world's first standard for measuring product greenhouse gas lifecycle emissions.
Straight has made a commitment to long term reductions in its emissions and a recertification of all previously labelled products has now been completed as is required every two years.
The 2013 assessment has demonstrated that Straight has achieved significant reductions in CO2 emissions across a wide range of its products since the original certification in June 2011. This is due to increased throughput of recycled material in the Straight Hull manufacturing facility and energy efficiency savings.
A number of newly launched products will shortly be put forward for certification too.

My Glorious Vino Con Vista Weekend in San Sebastian Spain
San Sebastian, Spain (Photo credit: Emmanuel Dyan)
English: La Concha bay (The Shell bay), in San Sebastian (Spain)
I had a Glorious Vino con Vista Weekend in San Sebastian Spain (called Donostia in Basque). The panoramic vistas in the Basque Culinary Capital of Spain are amazing! I also have a passion for Pintxos. The greatest culinary adventure in San Sebastian is a pintxos crawl!!
The small seaside city in northern Spain's Basque region is the "world's ultimate foodie destination"; it has more Michelin stars per capita (currently 16) than anywhere else on Earth. Both Arzak and Mugaritz grace the top 10 of S. Pellegrino's World's 50 Best Restaurants.
English: Panorama of San Sebastian with the "De La Concha" bay.
San Sebastian is located on the enchanting Bahia de la Concha. It is in the province of Gipuzkoa on the Basque coast of northwest Spain about 20 km away from the French border. (I also visited Loudes while I was in the general vicinity but that's another post.)

This aristocratic destination has plenty of coastal promenades. In San Sebastian there are beautiful parks and beaches. Aiete Park is located in the hills that surround the city where you can admire the beautiful gardens designed by Pierre Ducasse that surround the palace. Queen Isabel II, Queen Victoria of England, Queen María Cristina and King Alfonso XIII were among the aristocrats who frequented San Sebastian. Admire the Palacio Miramar on the beach, built in 1889 by Basque architect Jose Goicoa. The meticulously maintained Miramar Gardens are open to the public.

The breathtaking beauty of its bay, known as the Pearl of Bay of Biscay (Cantabrian Sea), coupled with world-class cuisine and an efficient transportation network makes San Sebastian a very desirable destination.
You can board the train at The Estación del Norte (North Station) in San Sebastian in the center of town. It connects to several Spanish cities including Madrid and Barcelona, as well as international destinations like Paris and Lisbon. There is also a train network that connects to Bilbao and other cities along the Basque coastline, as well as routes leading to France. Visit the Cristina Enea Park that is located next to the Tabakalera building, very close to the North Train Station. It is inhabited by swans and peacocks.
This spectacular Vino con Vista mecca is surrounded by beaches and the mountainous countryside of the Urgull Mountain and the Ulia Mountains. La Cocha beach is located in the center of the city and is considered one of the most beautiful urban beaches in all of Europe. I loved the charming Belle-Époque architecture, markets and pixtos!!

This is the quintessential tourist destination of Northern Spain. Take the ferry from El Muelle to the Isla de Santa Clare or take the cable car to the El Torreón de Igueldo (The Tower of Igueldo) on the Igueldo Mountain to see the glorious panorama of the sea and the cliffs of Igueldo. The lighthouse is on the west side of the mountain. It was built in 1885 by the architect Manuel Peironcely. The History Museum of San Sebastian ( The House of history) is located at the top of Mount Urgull.
San Sebastian is endowed with many natural resources and attractions that make this pristine stretch of paradise a perfect travel destination. The cuisine is incredible. San Sebastian has amassed more Michelín stars per square mile than any other place in the world. The beaches are sublime! There are many interesting festivals including the International Festival of Cinema, The Jazz Festival and popular celebrations like La Semana Grande de San Sebastian.
San Sebastian is the home of the Belle Époque Hotel Maria Cristina San Sebastian. This majestic landmark is one of the oldest grand hotels in Spain. It is located in the center of the city by the Urumea river and Victoria Eugenia Theatre. Hotel Maria Cristina was built in 1912 by French architect Charles Mewes who also designed the Ritz Hotels in Madrid and Paris. The hotel will re-open in July 2012 after an extensive update. Visit www.mariacristina.es to book a room.
Historically, San Sebastian was a small fishing village. After the invasion of Napoleon's troops and near destruction of the city in 1813 from Anglo-Portuguese invaders, the city was re-born as Queen Isabel II preferred holiday destination. After the death of King Alfonso XII in 1885, the Queen Regent Maria Cristina continued the tradition of spending the summer in San Sebastian and carried the glamor of the Court to the beaches of Cantabria.
Let's examine the top sites and panoramic vistas in spectacular San Sebastian Spain:
1. Explore Spectacular Panoramic Vistas from El Torreón de Igueldo (The Tower of Igueldo). Take the oldest cable-car (funicular) in the Basque country to get the best views over city. You can visit the amusement park, Parque de Atracciones for a glorious Vino con Vista of the Bay of Biscay and the Cantabrian mountains. Urgull Mountain was a military fort in the 12th Century; its walls have suffered countless attacks and sieges over the years. You can admire the lighthouse on the west side of the mountain. It was built in 1885 by the architect Manuel Peironcely. From this location, you can witness the beauty of the sea and the cliffs of Igueldo.

Visit the summit of Monte Urgill to see the statue of Christ. The "El Sagrado Corazón" sculpture majestically emerges over the city of San Sebastian. The work was done by Federico Coullaut in 1950. It measures more than 12 metres in height and can be seen from a distance of 4 miles out at sea. You can also see the former Castillo de Santa Cruz's old cannons on Monte Urgill.
Travel to the Ulia Mountain; a nature park and hiking path in the center of the city. The Peña del Ballenero and the Peña del Rey are large rocks used as look-out points. There are picnic areas and the Albergue de Ulía (Ulia House) with beautiful views of the city.
2. The epicenter of Basque Cuisine and Gastronomic Prowess: Donostia is renowned for its Basque cuisine and it is also the birthplace of Basque gastronomical societies. These cooking clubs for men called "txoko" have been around since 1870.
San Sebastian has amassed more Michelin stars per square mile than any other place in the world. San Sebastián and its surrounding area has a high concentration of restaurants boasting Michelin stars, namely Arzak (San Sebastián) www.arzak.com (the most expensive restaurant in Spain), Berasategi (Lasarte), Akelarre www.akelarre.net (district Igeldo) or Mugaritz (Errenteria) http://www.mugaritz.com/. You can dine at Casa Nicilasa, a culinary shrine since 1912, Urepel or Rekondo www.rekondo.com.
In San Sebastian, try some scallops, gooseneck barnacles, succulent marmita de bonita (tuna stew) and tasty snacks similar to tapas called pintxos. I actually overdosed on Pintxos in San Sebastian. They were all so alluring that I couln't control myself. Check out my Pinterest Board to see what I mean: http://pinterest.com/vinoconvista/san-sebastian-spain/
The kalimotxo is a local drink made of 50% wine and 50% coca cola, a favorite of the college students. I actually prefer their Sangria. The Parte Vieja (Old Town) has the greatest concentration of bars in the world with more bars per square foot than anywhere else. This area is the traditional core area of the city and was surrounded by fortification walls until 1863. A stretch of the walls still limits the Old Sectiont through the Portaletas gate.
3. This town has plethora of festivals. Every January, San Sebastian is transformed for 24 hours by the constant drum roll to the sound of the music of Sarriegui. At midnight on January 19th, the whole town turns out in force to celebrate La Tamborrada or the Festival of the Drums and the party doesn't stop until midnight the next day. On San Sebastian Day (January 20th), the Children's Drum Parade composed of more than 5000 boys and girls continues drumming. According to the local legend, in the 19th century, San Sebastian was under threat of invasion by the French. Led by the military drummers, the San Sebastian regiment bravely marched to meet the French. In support, the cooks and chefs of the city left their kitchens and marched along with the drummers, banging their wine casks, pots and pans in time with the military beat. Hearing this, the French were convinced that the San Sebastian army was larger than they expected and they retreated. The Tamborrada festival takes place every year to honor the heroes who saved the city.
There is a San Sebastian International Jazz Festival in July, a classic music festival and Semana Grande (the city's principle fiesta) in August and a San Sebastian International Film Festival in September.
Semana Grande is held the week of August 15th, the Day of the Virgin. During the week there's an International Firework Competition on Concha Bay. There are horse races in the Hippodrome of San Sebastian and the running of the bulls in the San Sebastian Arena 2016.
4. San Sebastián has a variety of interesting Museums and Sculptures: history, science, technology, oceanography, art and other interesting expositions are available.

Essay on Law
The 1785 Treaty And The 1830 Act Concerning Native Americans Essay Examples
Topic: Law, Government, Politics, President, India, Life, Civilization, World
The US government was set up by the promulgation of its constitution in 1878, however, prior to that, the individual states were claiming ownership of the land west of their border. In the year 1785, The treaty of Hopewell was signed and it ultimately defined the boundaries of the Cherokees. The Cherokees were made to believe that they had been placed under permanent ownership of this territory which they believed that they already owned as their ancestral land and would enjoy the protection from the US government. East of Mississippi, white occupancy was limited to by vast Indian tenure of northeastern Georgia. This was had been extended to North Carolina , South Tennessee and eastern Alabama. A total of twenty five million acre domain had been habited by over 60,000 Cherokees, Choctaws, Creeks and the Chickasaws. However, this vast ownership of land by the Cherokees did not last for long until President Jackson's administration sought to correct this 'anomaly' by removing all the tribes beyond the reach of the white settlements in west of Mississippi through his Indian Removal policies. In this paper, I will contrast and compare the treaty of 1785 and the Act of 1830 and how president Jackson depicted the Cherokees and other uncivilized Tribes.
The Cherokees had already been living in the innermost parts in the Southwest, including North Georgia for many centuries. By the early 18th century, Settlers of European ancestry began to slowly encroach on the Cherokees territory and later demanded that they cede their territory. Surprisingly, by the period between (1775-1783) the Cherokees had been made to abandon more than half of their original ancestry land that they owned. They were put under much pressure to abandon hunting and their various traditional ways of life so as to pave way for civilization. They were urged to learn how to live, farm and worship like the more civilized Christian America Yeomen. They embraced this civilization. They established a court system and henceforth abandoned the law of blood revenge and even adopted a republican system of government. The Cherokees developed their own type of syllabary which enabled them to read, write, publish written documents in the their own words and most importantly to record their laws. Unfortunately , despite these efforts by the Cherokees, most of the Southern states and the white people in Georgia completely refused to accept the Cherokee nation as their social equals and went further to urge their political leaders to seize the Cherokee's land. The Whites and the southerners contemplated on an idea President Jefferson had for so many years on relocating all the eastern tribes on the land far beyond the Mississippi River.
This idea was pushed further by the likes of President Andrew Jackson who called on the state to stop what he referred to as the 'absurdity of negotiating with the Indian tribes' he increasingly raised pressure on the legislature of the federal government to abolish the Indian Land title and to completely remove them from the state. Jackson argued that the Cherokees the state required land so as to open up for civilization in those areas. He claimed that the twelve million white settlers who were already civilized should replace a few thousands of uncivilized savages. This move to remove the Indians from their ancestral habitat was unjustified since president Jackson ignored the fact these tribes had already put in a lot of effort in becoming civilized. They had already started building churches and schools on their land and becoming skilled in an array of artistic ways of the civilized white people. Some of them had already started to intermarry and had stopped living in the forests and started living in white men's houses. Among their defenders in the land policy approached president Jackson and explained to him that it was okay to take the land of savages as he put it but they defended themselves that they were no longer savages but the rightful owners of who were very determined top incorporate civilization in their lives. However the state of Georgia completely refused to honor or recognize special quality or efforts by the Cherokees.
President Jackson desire to wipe out all the Cherokees and other similar tribes is referred to as the Jacksonian Justice by Mary E Young in her article; the Indian removal and Land Allotment. He agreed to sign the Removal Act of 1830 that authorized him to negotiate for the removal of the Cherokees who were living in the southern States and their relocation to the territory beyond the west of the Mississippi river. However, this was faced with outrageous resistance by the Cherokee government. The Cherokee leaders whom were now more learned and civilized sought for legal measures to protect their land. They pointed out at the Treaty of Hopewell (1785)which was signed between the Cherokee people and the US representatives. The signed treaty provided the following terms of agreement.
Indians to bring back prisoners who were U.S citizens or their allies
Cherokees to acknowledge the protection provided by the US
Boundaries defined.
No citizen of the US shall for any reason settle on the Indian land.
Peace and friendship perpetual.
The Cherokees leaders argued that the said treaty had abolished the borders between the US and the Cherokees Nation and therefore the Cherokees were to be treated as equals with the right to send a "deputy" to the congress. They further said that the treaty also subjected the American settlers in The Cherokees territorial boundary subject to the Cherokees law.
There exists numerous contrasts and comparisons between the 1785 treaty of Hopewell and the Indian Removal Act of 1830. The two legal documents were all made due to individuals in the US representative side having special interest in the land of the Native Americans. President Andrew Jackson and the southerners in general had the desire of sending away the Cherokees away so that they can capture their land and use it in their civilization process. The treaty of Hopewell was signed in the Hopewell plantation which was a plantation owned by the US representatives who signed this treaty with the Cherokees people. They led to the division of the Cherokees people, so wanted to resist the Act while others had already given in to the pressure and the use of force from President Jackson and were of the idea of moving to the west beyond the Mississippi river.
The removal of the Native Americans by president Jackson regime resulted in numerous deaths of Cherokees and is usually to referred to as the Trail of Tears. His government had underpinned the sovereign power and rights of the Cherokees over their land. Although the Indian removal Act was intended to be a voluntary exercise, force was extensively used and many Cherokees lost their lives. President Jackson further stated that the government would offer no protection to the Native Americans from the state law. This was a major setback to the Natives America and ultimately went against the 1785 treaty of Hopewell.

Holding the line:Bremerton's Kevin Sargent is trying hard to hold on to his starting offensive tackle job with the Cincinnati Bengals.
mosher — Aug 23rd, 1995
By Terry Mosher
Kevin Sargent is back.
As a starter.
In an up-and-down preseason for the Bremerton resident, Sargent has regained his starting offensive left tackle role for the Cincinnati Bengals. He was told Sunday.
Cincinnati plays its last NFL preseason game Friday night at home against the New York Jets. The last player cuts are required by Monday.
Sargent, a fourth-year player, continues to hold his breath because the Bengals' offensive line has been much maligned by the media — several publications have named the 6-foot-7, 295-pound Sargent as one of the problems.
"I don't feel secure at this point,'' said Sargent, whose wife Krista and young daughter Katlyn are waiting in the Sargent home in Bremerton for the go-ahead to fly to Cincinnati for the football season.
"They are pretty high on rookie free agent Anthony Brown out of Utah," Sargent said of his backup at left tackle. "They also could find somebody off the waiver wire once cuts start happening. So I wish I could feel secure, but I can't right now."
Sargent, who had been backing veteran Joe Walter at right tackle, is in the second year of a three-year contract that pays him more than the $178,000 minimum for NFL offensive linemen.
The Bengals and coach Dave Shula — son of Miami's coach Don Shula — are under pressure to win this year. Sargent says the media covering the Bengals say the team should be able to start as well as 4-2 because the teams they play, except for the Dolphins, all had losing seasons last year. The Bengals play at Seattle Sept. 17.
If the Bengals get off to a slow start, many predict Shula will be fired.
It hasn't helped that the Cincinnati injury list has grown to 31 players, including No. 1 draft pick Ki-Jana Carter. The former Penn State running back tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee Thursday against Detroit and will miss the season. In the same game, backup quarterback David Klingler broke his jaw and is expected to miss 10 weeks and linebacker Steve Tover, the Bengals' leading tackler a year ago, broke a bone in his left hand and may be out 2 to 3 weeks.
Sargent says there is so much negativism being written about the team that the players don't bother to read much of it.
"If I, or our team, read the paper every day and took to heart what was being said out there, geez, we would all be going to a psychiatrist. We'd be getting group rates,'' Sargent said.
Sargent, who started last year for the Bengals at left tackle, said he held that spot the first two weeks of camp.
But coaches weren't happy with his pass protection and he was demoted to second team, backing up Walter.
"On initial contact with the defensive player I'm suppose to 'punch' to kinda stun him and stop his momentum," Sargent explained. "They weren't happy with my punching."
Sargent says he has gotten better at the procedure, which is done with the open palm and is not really a punch. But it does not come easy.
"I'm glad to be back in the starting rotation, but I still have something to prove," Sargent said. "OK, it's my job again. But I really have to go out and show I can keep it. I know that you either produce or you don't. And if you don't, you aren't going to be around."
Sargent's contract is not guarenteed. He must make the team to be paid.
Playing pro football takes its toll and Sargent, a Bremerton High grad who played collegiately at Eastern Washington, had a hard time this past summer getting ready to go back to camp.
"The last couple months I almost dreaded going back," said the 27-year-old Sargent.
Even when he arrived in camp, Sargent said he couldn't shake the dread. But slowly it all began to flow again.
"You say to yourself, 'OK, this is what I do for a living so while I'm here I'm going to do the best I can," Sargent explained. "The physical abuse you take in this game is hard. But I love the camaraderie, and it is still a kid's game. I still love doing all that.
"But the mental part, and not knowing if you are going to have a job tomorrow, that takes a toll on you.
"I'm not complaining. I'm not going to say playing football is easy, but I'm not going to complain. I definitely can make more doing this than construction."

Sunday's annual Sports Day is a special day of friendly, but strong competition between the four Sports Houses, led by their captains pictured in today's Bulletin. We wish the captains and their vice captains the best of luck on the day.
For some of you the venue is new. Even for those who have been to Sacred Heart College oval many times, it will in 2017 look different. In place of the old grandstand there is a large and impressive new building which houses large basketball stadiums. There is room for all and as many of you know even on a warm day (forecast 32 degrees) the best shade is under the large and shady Moreton Bay Fig trees on the eastern side of the oval. Parents who prefer the western side may like to bring a large golf umbrella for extra shade.
There are still several stalls requiring parent volunteers on Sports Day. Please sign up for jobs if you have not already done so.
Your fresh baked goods will be greatly received by the Cake Stall on the morning of Sunday 26th March. The ingredient slip included in today's Bulletin will need to be afixed to each item. Please note that the Cake Stall will be unable to sell cakes with fresh cream.

Aug 10-18, 2019: Italy Hiking Pilgrimage with Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati – Creatio – Adventure in Nature. Journey in the Spirit.
Verso l'alto- "to the heights" Go to the heights that inspired Bl Pier Giorgio Frassati, "The man of the Eight Beatitudes" with Creatio! Hike the same mountains he did, see his family's summer home, pray at the Oropa Shrine where he would run to daily Mass, explore the Aosta Valley region on the borders of France and Switzerland and finish the pilgrimage by visiting his tomb in his home city of Turin.
Creatio's experienced guides will lead you on this pilgrimage in nature and in spirit. Our guides helped create this trip after experiencing beauty and peace in Pier Giorgio's Italy.
Bring a friend and you both get $100 off!
We allow you to choose your own flights to keep our trip costs as cheap as possible. The earlier flights are purchased, the better! We recommend checking www.google.com/flights for the cheapest options. Pro Tip: Use Google Flight's "Explore Map" feature to leave from or fly into a less expensive city (be sure to leave enough time to catch your connecting flights).
Wonderful opportunities for friendship, spiritual talks, and the chance to hike in the Italian Alps!
Join us "To the Heights"
As Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati said, "Verso l'alto" or "to the heights!" Join Creatio in the footsteps of Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati through Northwest Italy. Follow his example and enjoy life in a magnanimous way surrounded by mountains and community!
Sarah has led countless pilgrimages to Pier Giorgio's Italy with Franciscan University of Steubenville's Austria Program. She is excited to visit the area once again and experience life as Pier Giorgio did, to the fullest!
Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati was born April 6, 1901 and died at the age of 24 after contracting polio while taking care of the poor and sick. Pier Giorgio's friends described him as "an explosion of joy." In her biography, Luciana Frassati, Pier Giorgio's sister, said that "He represented the finest in Christian youth: pure, happy, enthusiastic about everything that is good and beautiful." He was an avid outdoorsman, skier and mountain climber who loved spending time with his friends in the outdoors. Pier Giorgio said in one of his letters, "Every day, my love for the mountains grows more and more. If my studies permitted, I'd spend whole days in the mountains contemplating the Creator's greatness in that pure air." He studied Engineering, which was not easy for him, he had to spend a lot of time studying but he wanted to "serve Christ better among the miners". He had an appreciation for art (his mother and one of his close friends were artists), music and poetry. He was a strong activist against both the communists and fascists and was a part of Catholic groups where he encouraged other young people to work for social reform. He also had a deep love for the poor who he ministered to up until his death.
This is where the Frassati family had their summer home. Situated in the Piedmont region of Italy, Pollone is a quaint town with majestic views. When Pier Giorgio was here, he would give the money that he would have used for public transportation to the poor and instead run to daily Mass at the Oropa Sanctuary. He would run there and back before the rest of the family woke up in the morning. The Sanctuary was founded in the 4th century by St. Eusebio and is a pilgrimage site to the statue of the Black Madonna from the 13th century. The Shrine will be our home base for the first part of this pilgrimage!
This amazing region is neighbors with both Switzerland and France. It is the perfect place to explore the Italian Alps close to Parco Gran Paradiso, a National Park with its amazing views, wildlife, and natural wonders. Stay in the region surrounded by medieval structures and snowcapped peaks for a real experience of European mountain hospitality.
This busy Italian city is known for its architecture and cuisine. It is also the city that Pier Giorgio lived and died in. It is said that when he died, floods of poor and sick crowded around his home, most of whom he had served. Visit Turin's many churches, including the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, where the Shourd of Turin is held and Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati is buried. Walk in the footsteps of many other saints around the city, such as St. John Bosco, St. Dominic Savio and St. Maria Domenica Mazzarello. Turin is also bustling with an open-air market where you can buy fresh grapes, figs, bread and cheese.
"Community," "deep conversation," "friendship." Many pilgrims chose these words when asked to describe their Creatio Pilgrimage experiences in one phrase. Others affectionately remember their experience by calling their fellow pilgrims their "Pilgrim Family." Of course, the pilgrim experience is known as a great opportunity for silence, personal reflection, and soul-searching. But we are made for community, made for an encounter, and much of that soul-searching happens in communion with others. Those conversations while preparing dinner, or sipping a hot espresso in tiny village, or helping someone with their blisters (yes, they're real) may be the ones that help change our lives. Come prepared to live out the beauty of Community similar to Pier Giorgio Frassati and his friends!
Creatio's spirituality is focused on strengthening the four relationships: relationship with self, with one another, with nature and with God. We encourage all of our pilgrims to be open to experience a deepening of these relationships while on our experiences. We go out into nature and beauty and hope that along the journey, we encounter the depth of ourselves and those around us. The locations that we will be visiting are perfect for just that, "The higher we go, the better we shall hear the voice of Christ." -Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati.
On this Creatio Pilgrimage, there will be many opportunities for Spiritual growth and reflection. Pilgrims will have the opportunity for daily moments of prayer and reflection led by both trip guides, and will participate in the Mass in some little cities along the way. Experience the rich Italian Catholic tradition in a truly authentic way, surrounded by mountains, nature and your pilgrim family.
One of the best parts of pilgrimage is living a simple life for a week. And one of the best parts of Italy is its hospitality. That being said, we will be staying in some incredibly unique places, such as a Shrine, refuges in the Alps, and a Monastery. Because this is a pilgrimage, conditions may not exactly be 5 star, but basic needs for pilgrims will always be met (warm place to sleep, blankets, etc). Joyous also is meeting and resting with other travelers from around the world and sharing meals and life for a short while with them!
Participants may arrive in Milan (MXP) anytime BEFORE 12 p.m. (Time in Milan, Italy) on Saturday, August 10th, the participants will meet at the Milan Airport (MPX) at that time. Pilgrims will be given instructions for meeting location. The trip officially begins at 12 p.m. in Milan on 8/10, any prior travel arrangements are the responsibility of the participant.
Participants may depart from Milan for the U.S. anytime after 8 p.m. on Sunday, 18th. The Trip officially ends at Milan train station, Sunday18th (approximately 12 a.m.). Participants who wish to remain extra time may do so on their own.
We recommend you undergo a medical check-up before traveling to make sure you don't have any kind of medical condition that could obstruct your participation in the pilgrimage.
This pilgrimage is physically demanding. The majority of this trip will be on foot exploring the mountainous landscape of Northwest Italy. Many of the beauty we will see is accessible only by hiking, so if you are not physically active you should start making some hikes now to prepare.
Northern Italy has a climate and the weather in the month of August is very temperate, with temperatures between 60-85o F. The most significant difficulty that pilgrims will encounter involves hiking multiple days through the Alps which can be physically demanding. Pilgrims are encouraged to build up resistance to hiking long distances, wearing the boots or shoes that they will wear on the pilgrimage. Blisters are one of the most frequent challenges of the hiking pilgrim. They can be limited/avoided by getting high quality and good-fitting socks and boots. Pilgrims are encouraged to break-in their footwear if they are purchasing new equipment, walking at least 3-4 weeks with the new boots before use.
Italy has a national health care system, with most public hospitals. Hospitals are all within close proximity of our travel destinations and bigger, modern hospitals in major cities.
Water bottle or Camelbak (It doesn't need to be huge – tap water in Italy is drinkable and readily available along our route. If you do bring a Camelback, also bring a water bottle to use in the evenings).
Hiking clothes – Recommendation: Bring two sets of clothing. You can wash one each night. Clothes that dry quickly are best – technical/hiking clothes. Avoid cotton.
Toiletries (toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo, travel size items or share) Recommend: Dr. Bronner's soap or similar – You can use it as shampoo, soap, laundry detergent, etc.
Bible – Again, be prudent with weight. Travel versions are best.
Camera and charger – Be aware of voltage difference so bring an adapter or share one.
Phone and charger – Be aware of voltage difference. Most new phones can handle it. Leaders will carry a phone for emergencies so you will be able to leave your phone off during the trip.
Blister care – safety pins (2), needle, thread, band-aids, first aid tape, Vaseline, moleskin. Creatio will provide some. You can also buy these things along the way if you need them.
There are shops in the towns. You can buy pretty much anything you need along the way, especially toiletries. Don't over pack; you can always replenish along the way.
Talk among one another (or with leaders) about sharing items – toothpaste, sunscreen, moleskin, etc.

Q: What's the best way to keep JButtons centered in a JPanel using GroupLayout on JPanel resize I originally spent quite a bit of time trying to get the JPanel to re-size when the dialog gets re-sized by grabbing the bottom right corner with the mouse and dragging. I cracked that, I think, but now cannot get the buttons to stay centered. I've included some stripped down code, and I pulled out the other panels (I use the JLayeredPane because there are 5 panels not just the one shown). I saw a fix for this if I was using a JLabel elsewhere on StackOverFlow, but haven't been able to crack this yet. Any help would be appreciated. It seems like I must be missing something really simple. This is my first post so I hope you'll bear with any formatting errors. Thanks....

A: I find GroupLayout to be fine to code by hand, certainly no harder than GridBagLayout, though I can certainly see why it would be a favorite for tools to use.  But it is meant for putting things into columns and rows, not for centering buttons.  You have the wrong layout manager.
To put a panel in the center of a screen that you want the user to be able to resize (which should be the default), you can put your panel in the BorderLayout.CENTER of a BorderLayout (which is the default layout manager on a JFrame).  Now, by default, the panel will also stretch to fit the frame unless you also put some things in the NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, and/or WEST portions of the BorderLayout.  Whether this works for you depends on what you're doing.
I also understand you can put the panel to be centered into a GridBagLayout with nothing else in it, and that will center it.  It isn't my method, but I mention it for completeness.
If you want a group of buttons to stay centered, first choose a layout manager for a panel to hold the buttons -- grid layout works only if you want the buttons to be the same size, you can use GropuLayout to put them in rows and columns, a BoxLayout can put a string of buttons horizontally or stack them vertically.
Then you can put THAT panel into another panel with a different layout - say, in the SOUTH portion of a BorderLayout - to center them horizontally, or the WEST portion of a BorderLayout to center them vertically.  This is what rcamrick is talking about when he mentions "nested panels".
