Introduction to Black Opal

1. Organization of black opal The organization exists as a decentralized international network of local-based chapters. As of September 2020 there are 17 chapters in cities throughout the United States and Canada. Each local chapter must embrace the set principals of the BLMGNF but is allowed to organize internally however they please. Each chapter can form their own agendas with some being more radical than others. Local chapters are mostly funded via direct donations but can also apply for more funding from the BLMGNF. The BLMGNF itself is funded by donations and grants using the legal title Black Lives Matter Global Foundation, Inc, the organization is hosted on the donation platform Thousand Currents. The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation is a member of the coalition organization Movement for Black Lives. ------ 2. Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation of black opal The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation is a decentralized organization with multiple chapters based in various cities dedicated to organizing and continuing activist activities in the Black Lives Matter movement. The organization has no leader and most chapters act very autonomously. The organization is often mistaken for other organizations in the Black Lives Matter movement because it often solely employs the phrase "Black Lives Matter" as its name. While the BLMGNF often simply calls itself "Black Lives Matter" it is not the sole organization within the broader Black Lives Matter social movement. The organization was founded in 2013 by three female activists and currently serves as a loose network of activists within the Black Lives Matter movement. The organization is international and advocates for the eradication of systematic racism and to prevent police violence. ------ 3. History of black opal FormationAfter the 2013 acquittal of George Zimmerman in the killing of Trayvon Martin activist Alicia Garza would wake up in the middle of the night crying and decide to write about her emotions in a Facebook post. In the post she would comment she was surprised "at how little Black lives matter". The post would inspire Garza's friend Patrisse Cullors to create the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter on July 15th, 2013. Garza and Cullors would reach out to their associate Opal Tometi to help establish Tumblr and Twitter accounts using the hashtag and where users could share relevant personal stories. Garza put the "Black Lives Matter" slogan on signs and displayed them in a local shoe shop. Cullors led a march down Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills with the slogan on her sign. Eventually, the slogan and hashtag would gain popularity. The first chapter for the BLMGNF organization would be organized in Los Angeles in 2013 with the help of Melina Abdullah. The first chapter would comprise of 30 people, notably artists, students, organizers, and mothers. ActivitiesDuring 2014 protests in Ferguson Graza, Cullors, and Tometi organized "Freedome Rides" to Ferguson. 500 people would sign up travel to Ferguson in these "Freedom Rides". Protesters throughout Ferguson would adopt the slogan "Black Lives Matter" throughput the months-long protests. The organization's involvement in protests in Ferguson and the slogan's popularity brought the organization and the Black Lives Matter movement to national attention. Newfound popularity sparked a rise of other Black Lives Matter organizations that were independent of the BLMGNF, as well as new chapters of the BLMGNF forming in other cities. After the killing of George Floyd and later protests many people began to try to donate money to the BLMGNF but often accidentally donated money to a similarly named organization called the "Black Lives Matter Foundation". The BLMGNF would itself receive around 1.1 million donations averaging about $33 each after the killing of George Floyd. The BLMGNF would soon create a 12 million dollar fund to aid its local chapters activities and other independent grassroots organizations.

1. Second stop of fire opal A short time later, a different police officer, who was Hispanic, stopped the car about a half mile away. According to police, when the officer approached the car, it reversed towards the officer, and the officer opened fire into the car with his semiautomatic pistol. In her October 27 statement, Williams disputed the police's account, telling the press, "There was a crash, and I lost control. The officer was shooting at us. The car ended up slamming into a building." According to Williams, she told the officer she was unarmed, but the officer "kept shooting" and told her to get out of the car. Shot and bleeding, she exited the car. According to Williams, the police covered Stinnette with a blanket while he was still breathing. According to NBC News, dashboard camera footage from the officer's vehicle released on October 28 shows Williams's car, with an officer in pursuit, turning in front of the second officer's car, before stopping on a grass embankment about twenty seconds later. According to CNN, Williams passed another police car, failed to stop at a stop sign, drove onto the opposite shoulder, and hit a telephone pole guy wire. The second officer pulled up next to Williams's car. It is unclear whether the officer exited his vehicle before yelling "get out of the fucking", at which point Williams's car begins to reverse. The car cannot be seen in the dash camera footage at this point, but the audio can be heard of an engine roaring and six or seven gunshots, followed by tires squealing and a crash. Two surveillance videos released on October 28 show Williams's car reversing and crashing into a building, but do not show the officer in the frame. The officer's body camera was not activated at the time of the shooting, and no video released on October 28 shows the shots being fired. Both Stinnette and Williams were taken to the local hospital. Stinnette died shortly thereafter. Williams survived wounds to her stomach and hand. Police said no weapons were found in the car. ------ 2. Protests and rioting of fire opal PhiladelphiaProtests and demonstrations against police brutality and institutional racism in response to Wallace's killing took place across Philadelphia throughout late October. Peaceful demonstrations took place, while others escalated into clashes between police and protesters. As of October 31, there had been a total of 225 arrests, 60 injured police officers, 617 incidents of looting, 18 damaged vehicles, and 24 ATM explosions, according to Philadelphia officials. October 26On the night of October 26 into the morning of October 27, protesters marched through West Philadelphia, and video posted on social media appeared to show the police clashing with demonstrators. Those marching shared that the march was peaceful until protesters came upon a group of police officers near the Philadelphia Police 18th District. The violence and unrest then spread to other parts of West Philadelphia and other adjacent city neighborhoods. Police arrested at least 91 people overnight, charging most with looting. According to the Philadelphia Police Department, thirty police officers were injured, in most cases by bricks and rocks that were thrown by protesters. Five police vehicles and one fire department vehicle were vandalized. A 56-year-old female police officer received a broken leg after being hit by a pickup truck. October 27On October 27, the state and city authorities requested help from the Pennsylvania National Guard, which then mobilized several hundred soldiers. According to police reports, businesses began getting looted right before 9 pm in North Philadelphia, with allegedly 1,000 people looting businesses in Port Richmond. Residents from several districts of Philadelphia were instructed by police to stay indoors to avoid "widespread demonstrations that have turned violent with looting". The Party for Socialism and Liberation held a march from Malcolm X Park in West Philadelphia through the University of Pennsylvania campus to Clark Park, which was attended by around 1,000 people. Protestors at the march called for community control of the police, the defunding of the Philadelphia Police Department, and the arrest of the officers involved. The march was endorsed by six justice organizations, including the Penn Community for Justice and the city's Black Lives Matter chapter. Violence broke out between police and protesters near a police precinct, with some in the crowd throwing rocks, light bulbs, and bricks at the police, leaving one officer injured. Police officers armed with riot gear lined the streets, and broke up large groups to arrest those accused of throwing projectiles, by hitting them with batons and tackling them. At least 23 officers were injured, nine police vehicles were damaged, and 81 arrests were made on charges of trespassing, assault on police, and disorderly conduct. Video footage from the protests also showed a slow-moving SUV being surrounded by police. Officers with batons surrounded the vehicle, broke its windows, pulled its driver and a passenger, Rickia Young and her teenage nephew, from the car, threw them onto the ground, and then pulled Young's 2-year-old son from the backseat. Young had to be taken to the hospital for injuries sustained in the arrest and was later released without charges. The Fraternal Order of Police posted a photo of a policewoman holding Young's son to Twitter and Facebook, claiming that the child had been found wandering the streets and that they were protecting him. The police union was accused of lying in the post showing an officer carrying the toddler, and removed the posts after, according to them, they "learned of conflicting accounts of the circumstances" over how the toddler ended up in the hands of police. October 28In response to the protests, Philadelphia announced a citywide curfew on October 28 from 9:00 pm on October 28 to 6:00 am the following day. No major protests took place. 40 people were arrested for charges including assault on police, burglary, failure to curfew, and vehicle theft. Four police officers were injured, and 11 automated teller machines (ATMs) were blown up. October 30On October 30, Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf deployed the National Guard to Philadelphia and stationed them outside City Hall and the Municipal Services Building. Another curfew was imposed, beginning at 9 pm on October 30 and ending at 6 am on October 31. Two men were charged with felony possession of weapons of mass destruction after illegal explosives, bolt cutters and machetes were found in their van. Officials said the two men were attempting to blow up ATMs. October 31A crowd estimated at upward of 1,000 turned out in West Philadelphia for a protest, with the demonstration originally due to gather at 61st and Locust streets, near the site of the original killing. ReactionsBoth Wallace's father and his cousin, Anthony Fitzhugh, decried any looting or violence which took place during the protests. US President Donald Trump connected the riots with Mayor Kenney, saying that "the mayor or whoever it is that's allowing people to riot and loot and not stop them is.just a horrible thing" and noting that they took place in "a Democrat-run state, a Democrat-run city". Trump also said, "Philadelphia was torn up by Biden-supporting radicals", and, "Biden stands with the rioters, and I stand with the heroes of law enforcement." White House Director of Strategic Communications Alyssa Farah said on October 27 that the White House was "prepared to deploy federal resources" in response to the unrest. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany similarly suggested in a statement that the White House "stands ready, upon request, to deploy any and all federal resources to end these riots", calling them "the most recent consequence of the liberal Democrats' war against the police". Biden responded to the protests saying, "There is no excuse whatsoever for the looting and the violence. None whatsoever. I think to be able to protest is totally legitimate. It's totally reasonable." Additional locationsA group of protestors gathered in Portland, Oregon on October 27, and marched through North Portland. It was one of three separate demonstrations in the city that night, with one crowd gathering at Arbor Lodge Park and marched to Portland Commissioner Dan Ryan's house, and called on him to further defund the Portland Police Bureau. Protests and violence were seen in New York City on October 27, with protesters arrested in Brooklyn after reports of damage to property. Police stated that police vehicles were damaged, and trash cans, American flags and additional objects were set on fire in videos on social media. Officers and protesters met near Boerum Place, a train station in Brooklyn, where several officers were reportedly injured after a car tried to drive through a group of police. ------ 3. Initial stop of fire opal On the evening of Tuesday, October 20, 2020, 19-year-old Stinnette and his 20-year-old girlfriend Williams, who have a child together, were in their parked car outside Williams's mother's house in Waukegan, Illinois, a suburb of about 86,000 people 30 miles (48Âkm) north of Chicago. According to police, a suspicious vehicle was reported shortly before midnight, and when a white Waukegan police officer approached the car to investigate, it unexpectedly fled. In an October 27 statement to reporters from her hospital room, Williams disputed the official police account. According to Williams, while she and Stinnette were sitting in their parked car, an officer pulled up without activating his car's lights or siren. Williams said she opened the window and turned on her car's interior lights. The officer referred to Stinnette by name, saying "I know you from jail", and referred to Williams as Stinnette's "baby mother". According to Williams, when Williams asked the officer if they were free to leave, the officer stepped back from the car, and Williams drove away slowly; the officer did not activate his car's lights or follow Williams. Body camera footage of the initial stop by the white police officer released on October 28 shows the officer telling Stinnette that he is under arrest three times, the second time stating that Stinnette had an outstanding warrant for his arrest. The officer has his hand on the car and tells Stinnette to exit the vehicle, when the car "speeds off". It is unclear from the footage whether the car made contact with the officer. The officer does not immediately pursue Williams, instead he calls for backup, identifying Williams and Stinnette by name.

Shooting of fire opal On October 26, 2020, police attended three separate times to a house on the 6100 block of Locust Street in the predominantly black neighborhood of Cobbs Creek, Philadelphia. Around 4:00 pm, during their third arrival, they came in response to reports of a person screaming and a man assaulting an elderly female. Video on social media shows Wallace walking into the street as people yell and two police officers aim their guns at him. At one point, Wallace, who is several feet away from the officers in the video, walks toward them as they quickly move backward, telling him at least twice to "put the knife down". The camera points down toward the ground as several shots are heard. Wallace's mother tried to stop him while pleading for the officers not to shoot him moments before the officers fired. Chief Inspector Frank Vanore said each officer fired about seven times, with an unknown number of shots hitting Wallace. One of the officers placed Wallace in a police vehicle and drove him to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. The officers involved in the shooting were moved to desk duty pending an investigation. ------ 4.

Reactions of fire opal Wallace's father, Walter Wallace Sr., stated his son had mental health issues and was on medication and asked why the police did not use a Taser instead. Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney said the shooting raised "difficult questions that must be answered". Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw said there would be an investigation, adding that neither officer was equipped with a Taser, as the department only had around 2,300 Tasers at the time of the shooting, which Outlaw said she intended to increase to 4,500. She also suggested the need for a behavioral health unit within the Philadelphia Police Department. She later went on to say that she would be creating this behavioral health unit as well as a directory for officers that lists mental health resources available during all hours of the day. Fraternal Order of Police President John McNesby showed support for the officers, saying, "Our police officers are being vilified for doing their job and keeping the community safe, after being confronted by a man with a knife. We support and defend these officers." Former Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey said he "didn't see anything criminal on the side of the officers", and "I can see in the tape that they were backing up.At some point in time, the distance was beginning to close between themselves and the individual". Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris published a statement, sharing, "Our hearts are broken for the family of Walter Wallace Jr.We cannot accept that in this country a mental health crisis ends in death."

She later went on to say that she would be creating this behavioral health unit as well as a directory for officers that lists mental health resources available during all hours of the day. Fraternal Order of Police President John McNesby showed support for the officers, saying, "Our police officers are being vilified for doing their job and keeping the community safe, after being confronted by a man with a knife. We support and defend these officers." Former Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey said he "didn't see anything criminal on the side of the officers", and "I can see in the tape that they were backing up.At some point in time, the distance was beginning to close between themselves and the individual". Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris published a statement, sharing, "Our hearts are broken for the family of Walter Wallace Jr.We cannot accept that in this country a mental health crisis ends in death."

Legally, the court system doesn't feel that once divorced, that your life is any of the ex's business. Just because you have a child together, doesn't give you the right to know anything about their personal life. I've agreed with this, but then again, I have felt that it is the ex's place to at least know, only because of the fact that there are so damned many child molesters out there. The best you can hope for is knowing what kind of person you divorced and hope they have good judgment on the men/women they allow around your children.

But I disagree that could become shiny again if you wear it. The tarnish has to be polished off. Here is something I shared with somebody who had a similar problem earlier - Gently wash and dry your silver immediately after use. Use a non-lemon-scented phosphate-free detergent and, to avoid water spots, towel-dry using a soft cotton dish towel or a very soft cloth. Silver that is used frequently and washed in this manner will require infrequent tarnish removal. A little liquid detergent, mixed with vinegar; or a liquid, non-abrasive (no beads or grains), unscented, aloe-free hand sanitizer, may remove the tarnish. Use a large cotton ball and rotate it regularly to expose unused surfaces, as elements in the tarnish itself can be very abrasive; then dry the piece with a non-abrasive cloth or cotton dish towel. http://www.hermansilver.com/care.htm ---- Silver easily scratches, so it is important to use a non-abrasive cloth, such as those tiny squares that come with eyeglasses, or anything very soft.

Hope this helps! ------ Why does my "silver ring thing" ring sting? Several reasons for this could be simply the ring fitting to tightly causing the stinging sensation. Another fairly common reason is an allergy to certain metals. If the ring is not real sterling that could be the problem. The most common allergy is to nickel, although sterling is an alloy and can be mixed with any type of metal including nickel. if you have a severe allergy to any metal it is mixed with could be the cause. My advise if its not that the ring is fitting too tightly to see a doctor tell him of this and get proper allergy tests done to find out what metals you may be allergic to and the severity. Then he can give you advise from there such as stay away from certain types of jewelry or maybe prescribe to you a medication. There also may be other underlying medical conditions causing this as well. Thats why I think it is important to see a doctor about this. If you deem necessary get the ring tested to see what the silver is alloyed with or if even silver at all. Also if just a simple allergy then you know what metal to stay away from. If the ring in question is real sterling silver it does not mean you have to stay away from the metal completely just make sure it is not alloyed with the metal you are allergic to. Although in extremely rare cases some people are allergic to silver. ------ Is sterling silver good or bad for a ring?

If yes, then should I have it done professionally? Yes, two sterling silver rings should be able to be soldered together. They would need to fit tightly so there would be a good surface touching. You would probably be better off to have a jeweler to do it for you. Silver has a higher melt temperature than a soldering iron can do, it requires a torch. If the rings have stones in them, the stones would have to be removed or carefully shielded. After cleaning thoroughly, you would need to use flux, hard silver solder (75% silver), soak in pickle (acid to remove soldering oxides and excess flux), then re-polish. Probably more tools/suplies than you want to buy and more process than you want to learn to do one solder joint.

I'm not saying our stuff is the highest quality stuff but it stands the test of time, we don't handle every piece everyday, they mostly stay in the case unless we are with customers. I Have only NEEDED to polish certain pieces once every 6 months or so. They are the more integrate ones. I love my own SS pieces, and I polish them about 3 times a year, Which is what I recommend to my customers ( I say the same with with the yellow and white gold) I would just go pick up SS polishing cloths if you wear the ring daily I would go with every 3 months and you should be just fine. Just take care of it. And remember the price you paid. And what they mean to you. ------ if my ring is real silver or not? The small amount of copper in sterling silver is there to add strength because pure silver is too soft for ordinary use. On one recent occasion (and I think I may remember others, years ago), a silver ring of mine broke. (I have no reason to doubt its composition.) I do not remember any of my silver rings leaving a mark on my fingers, except, possibly, when I haven't properly cleaned it after polishing. I only need to polish silver I haven't worn in a while. The jewellery I wear most of the time doesn't need polishing, and doesn't leave marks. Gold is almost perfectly non-reactive, and that's why staining from gold rings is rare. However, I have heard of cases where green or blue marks from gold rings is a symptom of diabetes. Silver turns black when exposed to sulfur. Rub it with a bit of hard-cooked egg yolk. This isn't diagnostic, but it's a good indicator. Using the 925 stamp is under strict legal control. To use the stamp to mark a small object fraudulently would be a criminally stupid act.

Hi Jordi, i can only speak for the silver coin itself. The whole description should be "GUILELMUS II IMPERATOR" and its latin. Im pretty sure the meaning is simply "Whilhelm II. Kaiser".
