Militant organisation of Black Americans founded in Oakland, California in 1966 by Huey Newton and Bobby Seale. Called upon Blacks to arm themselves against their oppressors. At the same time, provided free breakfasts for children in ghetto areas, (financed by donations from local merchants and wealthy sympathisers), and opened schools and medical centres. Organisation waned as leaders fled USA after arrests on various charges, police shootings and in-house fighting.

A man finds it difficult to walk down the street because he’s self-conscious and feels that people are watching him from their windows. Worse, he may run into a person on the sidewalk and be forced to say hello to them. He’s not sure he can do that. His voice will catch, his "hello" will sound weak, and the other person will know he’s frightened.

Short form for 'white van' audio speakers. If someone in a white van approaches you - usually in a mall parking lot - and says they have a surplus of home audio speakers they're willing to literally 'give away', that's because they can't even do that....until they meet someone like you. You think this is a break in life....imagine full high fidelity sound for only $100! Truth is they are acoustically crap to begin with and will only last a few hours when pushed. If your 'lucky' enough to find a carpeted set and you have a cat, you could ditch the speakers and add play toys your kitty would love scratching these boxes.
