Today we venerate Benjamin Rucker aka Black Herman on his 134th birthday 🎉

Heralded as the greatest magician in U.S. history, Black Herman was brilliant for his fusion of performance magic with occultism & superstition, and his strong Separatist & militant Pan-Afrikan ideologies (Marcus Garvey x Booker T. Washington). He proclaimed that it was his mission to promote Black Power.

Born in Amherst, VA, as a teen, Black Herman learned the art of illusions from his mentor, Prince Herman. They ran a medicine show, performing magic tricks to attract curious passersby to their "Secret African Remedy". When Prince Herman, 17yr old Rucker was determined to carry on the show; this time using only magic. He then took on the name of, "Black Herman"; in honor of Prince Herman & as an homage to Alonzo Moore, the famous Black American magician who was known as the "Black Herrmann".

In Harlem, Rucker established himself as a pillar of the community. He was often seen in Garvey’s massive Harlem parades & is believed to have offered Garvey spiritual counsel. He befriended preachers, intellectuals and politicians, many of whom met at his home for a weekly study group. He was an Elk, a Freemason, and a Knight of Pythias. He used his success to make loans to local Black businessmen/organisations, established scholarship funds, & performed for free to help churches pay their bills. He expanded his wealth by purchasing a printing plan to establish a monthly magazine, "Black Herman’s Mail Order Course of Graduated Lessons in the Art of Magic". He acquired real estate, bought shares in two cotton plantations, gave personal consultations, & started herb/root gardens in a dozen cities.

Black Herman famously claimed that he was immortal & directly descended from Moses of the Bible. He asserted that our people could elude Klansmen & their descendants by escaping the limitations of mortality & simply outliving them. He'd also sell protective talismans to combat racism. He inserted his Afrikan heritage into his performances. One of his specialties included the “Asrah levitation.” He'd produce rabbits & doubled the amount of cornmeal in a bowl. Many of his tricks were "secrets taught by Zulu witch doctors". Some of his tricks were parallel to miracles from the Christian bible. He'd cast out demons from his assistant or brother hidden amongst the audience, then offer a special tonic for sale & offer a psychic reading address their “problems”.

Yet none compared to his most famous act of all, "Buried Alive". He would be interred in an outdoor area called "Black Herman's Private Graveyard", in full view of his audience. He'd slow his pulse by applying pressure under his arm, & pronounced "dead" on the spot by a local "doctor". As the coffin was lowered into the ground, Herman would slip out unnoticed. For days, people would pay to look at the grave, buidling the suspense over the fate of Black Herman. When the time was up, the coffin was exhumed with great drama and fanfare, and out walked Herman to lead his audience into the nearest theater, where he performed the rest of his show.

Eerily enough, his must famous act foreshadowed his own death in 1934 in which he collapsed on stage due to a massive heart attack that many audience members took to be part of his act. After the crowd refused to believe that the show was indeed over, Black Herman's assistant had his body moved to a funeral home. The crowds followed. Finally, his assistant decided to charge admission as one final farewell & homage to Black Herman's legacy. People came and went by the thousands; some even brought pins to stick into his corpse as proof of his death. His burial made front page news in Black newspapers across the country. Today, Black Herman rests in the Woodlawn Cemetery in NYC.

In 1925, he published a book, ghostwritten by a man named Young entitled, "Secrets of Magic, Mystery, and Legerdemain"; a semi-fictionalized autobiography that offers directions for simple illusions, advice on astrology & lucky numbers, & bits of Hoodoo customs and practices.

"If the slave traders tried to take any of my people captive, we would release ourselves using our secret knowledge." - Black Herman during his rope escape routine.

We pour libations & give him💐 today as we celebrate him for his love & service to our community/people & for his legacied contributions to Hoodoo Culture & History.

Offering suggestions : read his literary works, libations of whiskey/rum, Pan African flag, coins & paper money

‼️Note: offering suggestions are just that & strictly for veneration purposes only. Never attempt to conjure up any spirit or entity without proper divination/Mediumship counsel.‼️

"The Substance" Is a Masterful Exhibition of Beauty's Violence

The Substance is similar to Brian De Palma's "Carrie" and James Whale's "The Invisible Man," which depict a medical miracle gone wrong and use a lot of blood and devastation to show a girl's suffering on Soap2Day Movies Free. The "Vertigo" theme by Bernard Herrmann may seem overdone, yet it matches the story's theme and obsessive mood nicely. Similar to her trim and concise feature debut "Revenge," Fargeat crafts a narrative that is laser-focused on a small number of individuals. She has an equally impressive crew behind the camera as her skilled on-screen partners. Cinematographer Benjamin Kracun, for example, takes the garish pink and blue color scheme of "Revenge" and turns it into a vibrant, bold color scheme appropriate for Beverly Hills. Costume designer Emmanuelle Youchnovski also contributes to the look.

Punkteteilung im ersten Heimspiel

Punkteteilung im ersten Heimspiel SG Auerbach – 1. FC Umpfertal 2-2 (0-1) Auerbach. (jb) Zum ersten Heimspiel in der Landesliga-Runde durfte die SG Auerbach den 1. FC Umpfertal begrüßen. Da die Platzherren das Pokalspiel gegen den gleichen Gegner gewonnen hatte, hoffte man heute ebenfalls auf einen entsprechenden Spielverlauf. Zu Beginn waren es aber die Gäste, die das Spiel mehr annahmen und erste Halbchancen erspielten. Auf Seite der Hausherren war das Spiel von unzähligen Fehlpässen geprägt. Sinnbildlich war die beste SGA-Chance in der ersten Hälfte eine verunglückte Flanke von Kollmer, die immer länger wurde und knapp das lange Eck verfehlte. In der fünften Minute der Nachspielzeit erzielten dann die Gäste den zu diesem Zeitpunkt verdienten Führungstreffer, nachdem die SGA-Hintermannschaft unglücklich agierte und so Janik Ondrasch zum Tor einlud. Abonnieren Sie kostenlos unseren NOKZEIT-KANAL auf Whatsapp. Offensichtlich fruchtete die Halbzeitansage in der Auerbacher Kabine, denn nach dem Seitenwechsel spielten die Einheimischen mutig auf und wurden immer wieder durch Steckbälle gefährlich. Nach 54 Minuten wurden die Bemühungen belohnt, als Benjamin Eberle Lars Reichert schön freispielte und dieser wiederum für Haag auflegte. Von nun an spielten nur noch die Auerbacher. Belohnt wurde dies mit dem 2-1-Führungstreffer durch Hess, der nach einer Hereingabe von Haag nur noch einschieben musste. Nach diesem Schema kam die SGA immer wieder zu Chancen, vergab diese allerdings fahrlässig. Auch das Aluminium war dreimal im Weg. Den Gästen reichten in der zweiten Hälfte fünf Minuten, in denen Auerbach das Heft aus der Hand gab. Nach einer Hereingabe von der linken Flanke köpfte der frisch eingewechselte David Tóth unbedrängt zum 2-2 ein. In der verbleibenden Spielzeit warfen die Hausherren noch einmal alles nach vorne, am Ende blieb es aber bei der Punkteteilung. Daten zur Partie: - SG Auerbach: Müller; Hecht; Treu; Kollmer; Löprich (90. Hofmann); Eberle, B. (79. Gottelt), Haag; Kaufmann; Pfeifer; Reichert (84. Krämer); Hess - 1.

5 min readPreparations for Next Moonwalk Simulations Underway (and Underwater) Members of the AERL design team pose outside the Structures Laboratory at Langley in 1941. Many would later transfer to Cleveland later that year.NASA “[On December 15, 1941] a few shivering, startled Southerners from Langley, the vanguard of those in the Power Plants Division transferring to Cleveland, arrived in the biggest snowstorm in years,” recalled former receptionist Mary Louise Gosney. This vanguard was the first large group of NACA employees to relocate from the Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory to the new Aircraft Engine Research Laboratory (AERL).  As construction of the AERL proceeded over the next two years, larger factions followed suit. Langley employees not only designed and constructed the AERL but formed the core of the Laboratory’s leadership and research staff for three decades. For the newcomers, the mid-December snowstorm was a dramatic change from Virginia, where temperatures had reached 60 degrees Fahrenheit just days before. The challenge of acclimation to the northern climate, however, paled in comparison to the tumult resulting from Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor and the Philippines just eight days before. The United States was now involved in World War II on two fronts, and there was a new urgency to get the NACA’s new engine research laboratory operational. The military was relying on the AERL to resolve a host of propulsion issues for its aircraft. Nearly a year beforehand, in January 1941, Langley construction engineer Charles Herrmann had relocated to Cleveland with Helen Ford, an administrative assistant from NACA Headquarters. From a 19th-century farmhouse on the barren AERL site, they managed the construction contracting and inspections. Meanwhile, in a room above Langley’s Structural Research Laboratory, a team of civil engineers designed the AERL’s test facilities and other structures. In August 1941, the NACA decided to transfer the Chief of Langley’s Construction Division, Edward Raymond Sharp, to Cleveland to expedite the work. Temporary offices constructed inside the hangar to house the architectural and drafting personnel as well the machines shops.NASA/GRC The Langley arrivals of December 1941, which included inspectors, engineers, draftsmen, mechanics, and administrative staff, were stationed in temporary offices inside the aircraft hangar—the only completed building. Sharp negotiated a key contract with a new construction company in the ensuing weeks that provided a breakthrough in the work. The first test facility was operational in May 1942. One after another, the other buildings and facilities were completed during the following year, and the former Langley staff left the hangar for their permanent offices. In the fall of 1942, units of the Langley engine research staff began transferring to Cleveland. What had been modest-size sections in Langley’s Power Plants Division were expanded to full divisions in Cleveland. These divisions, led by experienced Langley engineers, included Addison Rothrock’s Fuels and Lubrication Division, Benjamin Pinkel’s Thermodynamics Division, Ernest Whitney’s Engine Installation Division, Charles Moore’s Engine Research Division, Oscar Schey’s Supercharger Division, and Joseph Vensel’s Flight Research Division. Ray Sharp in his in December 1946. He began his NACA career at Langley in 1922 and transferred to the Cleveland lab in August 1941.NASA In a somewhat surprising move, the NACA assigned construction manager Ray Sharp the responsibility for running the laboratory on a permanent basis. At Langley and Ames, technically skilled engineers performed that task. Sharp, who had a law degree but no formal scientific or engineering background, was assisted by Executive Engineers Carlton Kemper and Addison Rothrock. Sharp managed the day-to-day activities, while Rothrock and Kemper supervised the research. In 1949, Abe Silverstein, who had helped design and operate Langley’s Full Scale Wind Tunnel, became Chief of Research. Although the AERL was continually hiring new researchers in the 1940s and 1950s, the ex-Langley personnel provided the laboratory’s backbone. With the arrival of the newcomers, more and more of the Langley veterans moved into the management ranks. Nearly all of the division chiefs and upper-management positions during the NACA era were occupied by former Langley people. The relatively small size of the AERL staff and the fact that many of them were new to northeast Ohio resulted in a close community. Everyone knew nearly everyone else, families were started, and lifelong friendships formed. Sharp and his wife Vera were parental figures who looked after the employees and participated in the staff dances, sporting events, and other social activities. Members of the Old Timers Club, all former Langley employees, meet for their annual luncheon in March 1948. Back row, left to right: Harold Gerrish, Achilles Gellales, Clarence Decker, Carlton Kemper, Hampton Foster, William Dewey. Front row, left to right: Emery Gilbert, Charles Moore, Dale McConnaha, Addison Rothrock, Oscar Schey, Arthur Tesman.NASA The transition from the NACA to NASA in 1958 brought a number of changes to the organization, including the transfer of Silverstein and a number of other key Lewis employees to Headquarters and Langley’s Space Task Group. There was also a shift from the NACA’s mostly in-house research to NASA’s management of external development contracts. The new space agency also dramatically increased the size of its staff in the early 1960s. Silverstein, who replaced Sharp as Director in 1961, knew the importance of camaraderie and successfully encouraged the older NACA veterans to interact socially with the new recruits. As NASA’s budgets decreased in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the era of Langley’s influence on Lewis came to a close. To reduce its payroll, NASA began to offer employees incentives to retire. The Langley expatriates—many of whom had over 30 years of service—ebbed away during the final years of the Apollo program. The Center struggled for nearly a decade to redefine itself and its culture. Langley’s legacy is still visible at the Center today in its inductees into the Glenn Hall of Fame, a historic district containing the original facilities, and the campus’s lack of sidewalk plots or tree lawns. The Southerners had not anticipated the need to plow snow when designing the laboratory. Robert S.

After the 2020 edition of the Vendée Globe generated unprecedented interest, the elite solo round the world race increased the number of places at the start to 40 IMOCA competitors for the 2024 edition. 

The qualification rules had been strengthened since 2020, which required the sailors to take the start of two solo races and finish at least one of them between 2022 and 2024, in a time that does not exceed the winner’s time plus 50%. Among the 44 entrants, 42 skippers managed to qualify.

The limit was deemed necessary for safety reasons and to preserve the unique and exceptional characteristics of this race, with organizers having to make the final cut for the entrants to start on November 10, 2024.

2024 Entrants: • Fabrice Amedeo (Nexans – Wewise) – FRA • Romain Attanasio (Fortinet – Best Western) – FRA • Eric Bellion (STAND AS ONE) – FRA • Yannick Bestaven (Maître CoQ V) – FRA • Jérémie Beyou (Charal) – FRA • Arnaud Boissières (La Mie Câline) – FRA • Louis Burton (Bureau Vallée) – FRA • Conrad Colman (MS Amlin) – USA/NZL • Antoine Cornic (Human Immobilier) – FRA • Manuel Cousin (Coup de Pouce) – FRA • Clarisse Crémer (L’Occitane en Provence) – FRA • Charlie Dalin (MACIF Santé Prévoyance) – FRA • Samantha Davies (Initiatives-Cœur) – GBR • Violette Dorange (DeVenir) – FRA • Louis Duc (Fives Group – Lantana Environnement) – FRA • Benjamin Dutreux (GUYOT environnement – Water Family) – FRA • Benjamin Ferré (Monnoyeur – Duo for a Job) – FRA • Sam Goodchild (VULNERABLE) – GBR • Pip Hare (Medallia) – GBR • Oliver Heer (Oliver Heer Ocean Racing) – SUI • Boris Herrmann (Malizia – Seaexplorer) – GER • Isabelle Joschke (MACSF) – FRA/GER • Jean Le Cam (Tout commence en Finistère – Armor-lux) – FRA • Tanguy Le Turquais (Lazare) – FRA • Nicolas Lunven (Holcim – PRB) – FRA • Sébastien Marsset (Foussier) – FRA • Paul Meilhat (Biotherm) – FRA • Justine Mettraux (TeamWork – Team SNEF) – SUI • Giancarlo Pedote (Prysmian) – ITA • Yoann Richomme (Paprec Arkéa) – FRA • Alan Roura (Hublot) – SUI • Thomas Ruyant (VULNERABLE) – FRA • Damien Seguin (Groupe APICIL) – FRA • Kojiro Shiraishi (DMG MORI Global One) – JPN • Sébastien Simon (Groupe Dubreuil) – FRA • Maxime Sorel (V and B – Monbana – Mayenne) – FRA • Guirec Soudée (Freelance.com) – FRA • Denis Van Weynbergh (D’Ieteren Group) – BEL • Szabolcs Weöres (New Europe) – HUN • Jingkun Xu (Singchain Team Haikou) – CHN

3, 33, 44, 59, and 99 for the ask game! Love to hear your thoughts about stuff 😄

Hi Will :) <3

3. Favourite television show from the 2010′s +?

Stranger Things (2016-present) has brought me a lot of joy. I also really love Sex Education (2019-present).

33. Who is your favourite male movie character of all time?

Benjamin Braddock from The Graduate (1967) is a fave. He’s vulnerable and awkward and really embodies the rebellious spirit of 1960s youth in a more encompassing way than popular stereotypes of hippies, ‘free love’, and Woodstock do.

44. Is there a movie that you could watch over and over again and not get tired?

The Philadelphia Story (1940)

59. Biggest Oscar upset, in your opinion?

Hands-down Judy Garland’s loss to Grace Kelly in 1955. Grace is a good movie star, but an extremely limited actress. I haven’t seen The Country Girl (1954) but Judy gives the performance of a lifetime in A Star Is Born (1954). Sorry I don’t have something more original.

99. Best movie soundtrack?

What are you in the mood for? There’s so much wonderful film music. At a certain level it’s not that scores are better or worse than eachother, just different.

Some of my faves include The Incredibles (2004) -  Michael Giacchino, You Only Live Twice (1967) and Diamonds Are Forever (1971) - John Barry, North By Northwest (1959) - Bernard Herrmann, Bullitt (1968) - Lalo Schifrin.

♔ MY NAVIGATION ♔

0.5 TYPES OF REQUESTS I WRITE:

One-shots (1k words or more)

Drabbles  (below 1k words)

Headcanons (bullet point fics)

Blurbs (below 500 words)

Imagines (gif + a little blurb, around 500 words)

1.0 RULES:

Request via ask.

Always include what type of request you want me to write.

Specify because specification is very important as it helps me make your request as pleasing as possible, but try not to be too specific as I like the element of surprise.

If you want me to write something from my prompt list (click here): include the name of said character, category of the prompt and the prompt’s respective number (e.g. Jay Halstead, fluff 7). 

1.1 Note: If you don't include what type of request it is that you want me to cook up, I will choose the type myself so don't come at me if you wanted a 2K worded piece of work and instead got an imagine with 200 words!

1.2 Note: Mixing the prompt with a plot line of your own is allowed, just make sure to follow the rules (1-3). 

1.5 THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND:

Unless asked for, I will be writing with the Female!reader in mind (I like to exclude any gender relation and make it so that both genders could read and enjoy).

I respond to asks when the request has been qued to post and released on Ao3.

The maximum number of request you can send is 2. I know there is an option to send them in anonymously, but I really hope you will stick to this rule. Give others a chance to submit their wishes, and don’t make the line too big with by mass requesting (I close requests after I get around 30 requests).

Requests sent during seasons I have not watched or for characters that have yet to make an appearance in the show will not be written (exceptions exist).

I write one-shots but not a whole series unless I can see/want a continuation.

Themed requests (Christmas, Valentine's Day, New Year etc.) can be only sent during that time. I don’t accept Christmas requests during the month of May. The same goes for the rest.

I have every right to delete every request that does not fit within the rules stated above, or I feel uncomfortable writing. Also, it’s important to note that I don’t have inspiration to write every request that’s sent. It’s normal to not have inspiration, and because I prefer quality to quantity, if I see that I don’t have inspiration for a request then I will not write it.

Requests will be deleted if sent while my request box is closed. I won’t answer them as I feel like there is no need. On almost every informative post (+my bio, and if you’re on PC my theme under ‘blog status’) it will say whether the request box is closed or not.

English is not my first language but without digging myself my own grave this early on I want to say that I'm proud of how much I know, given that I never speak English unless in school.

Be nice because only constructive criticism is allowed. If you spot a grammatical error or a paragraph/sentence/word etc. that doesn't make sense, let me know. But be nice!

2.0 THINGS I DON’T WRITE:

LGBTQ+  topics/relationships (because I feel like I wouldn’t do a good job) 

Real people, send only requests for characters in my writing list

Ships or OC, send only reader inserts

NSFW (mature content stories)

Noncon

Dark!fics

Romanticized mental illnesses

S*icide scenes

R*pe scenes

Racism/slurs

2.1 Note: P*dophilia, r*pe, s*icide might be mentioned in my Chicago P.D, Fire, Med shots (or other), but I will never explicitly write about those subjects or write about anything that is about/centered around them.

2.2 Note: Explicitly written smut is a no, I will not write that. Try to refrain from requesting steamy scenes too, as I will only put them in myself were I to deem it necessary for the WIP.

2.5 THINGS I DO WRITE:

Angst

Fluff/ WAFF

Fusion/ Crossover

Daughter/Wife/Sister!Reader

Here is me trying to explain what kind of requests I also take [x]

2.6 Note: It’s hard to list but to make it easier for you guys, I will write about almost anything as long as it’s not on my 2.0 bullet.

3.0 POSTING SCHEDULE:

Posts are usually posted between 01:00 A.M. and 05:00 A.M. CET (Central European Time).

Check schedule to see what's been qued to post.

3.1 Note: This account is NOT my work place. Everything here is written when I have time and I feel like writing. Requests that I find more interesting will most likely be written and qued to post sooner. I advise you to follow my blog, check regularly and sit tight until you see that it's qued. You can always check my navigation page and click on 'schedule'. Or simply click here.

3.2 Note: I am not a doctor nor a firefighter nor a policeman. I research whatever I can before I start writing and sometimes that takes hours. Nothing is 100% accurate (especially for events set in Chicago Med) although I hope it is.

3.5 WRITING LIST:

3.6 Note: Requests are currently OPEN for all fandoms!!!

3.7 Note: Your requests do not have to be strictly romantic (Sibling!Reader or other are also (obviously) allowed).

---More shows and characters will be added through time
