The album opens on a peppery note with the dance floor-friendly Dekho Dekho Dil Ye Bole. Despite its vibrant beats and foot-tapping tempo, the title track doesn't strike as fresh. Instead, it sounds more like an unintentional tribute to the snazzy world of Himesh Reshammiya [Images] and Pritam's music.

This is the very reason why Adnan Sami seems to be the unlikeliest of composers for making songs for the film since the romantic man has been famous more for his mushy/sad numbers than anything else. There has been a 'Lift Kara De' or a 'Kabhi Nahin' but still audience remembers him more for a 'Kabhi To Nazar Milao' or a 'Tera Chehra'.

"Can you imagine someone who is known for his dialogue delivery doesn't have a single dialogue in the film? The only dialogue in the film I have is 'NO' .
Director Willard Caroll wanted me to be silent throughout the film, but Salman wanted me to say something and that's why I just say 'No' towards the end of the film," laughs Gulshan.
This is odd. I don't know why, Marigold director took this kind of decision.

Marigold is coming to the cinema halls next week. Now, it is the time of enjoy its music. Well, it seems that not every one is too much excited with the songs of Marigold. This is the first
Meghna Menon has strongly criticized the music of Marigold.
She wrote:
The music of the Salman Khan-starring
Hollywoodflick 'Marigold' is quite a disappointment, especially when you know it has been composed by none other than Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, the ruling kings of Bollywood music.
In their effort to mix Western-Indian musical arrangements with Hinglish lyrics, they nearly forget the demand of this millennium's music and end up with what could be called a less-than-average-album.
It starts off with 'Listen to the music'. Ali Larter lends her voice along with Shaan and Truth Hurts to the song. An all-in-all English number, it comprises major Indian musical arrangements with occasional Western inputs. A moderately paced track, Ali's husky voice isn't bad and the song would be best heard while watching the film.
Very strong words indeed! The problem of Marigold is that it is a

News Post India reported:
Macho man Salman Khan plays choreographer in his first-ever Hollywood project, 'Marigold - An Adventure in India', a musical romantic comedy that releases this week, following on the success of his super caper 'Partner'.
The film, with a mixed cast and crew, focuses on a young American woman who travels to

Santa Clara Head Coach Jerry Smith:
"We're happy with the win and happy with the performance and happy to be advancing to the next round. I thought that Saint Louis was a very tough opponent today. They really made us work for everything. I think one of the keys in the game was the early second half goal that was scored. I was really thankful to get a goal in the first half. We had to work really hard for our goal, mostly because Saint Louis was very organized. But, I think Tina (Estrada) dribbling in the second half and sliding the ball to Brittney Klein for that early second half goal really took the pressure off of us and took some energy away from the Saint Louis team. I think that was a key goal in the game but, overall, I'm very pleased with our performance today."
(on scoring nine goals in the first two matches of the tournament) "I think going into the tournament we were really confident in our ability to hold onto the ball and to defend well. Defending well is one of the key components of the NCAA tournament for sure. If there was a question mark on our team in was in our ability to put the ball in the net and we learned a little bit about that on Friday night but I think we learned a lot about that today. Saint Louis is one of the most well-organized defensive teams we've played against."
(on Boston College) "I think we're going to be a better team next week than we were this week. I think Julie Ryder said it right, `we're in a really good place right now'. I've never seen Boston College play. I know this--they are good enough to be in the round of 16 and that means they're pretty good. So we'll prepare ourselves for a very good team."
Senior Micaela Esquivel:
"I think we essentially won the game by working at possession and working hard at keeping the ball. They were attacking but our forwards were working back and helping the defense so we had a lot of pressure off of us (the defense). We really possessed the ball to prevent their attack."
Sophomore Brittney Klein:
"I think the first goal made us more confident going forward. So in the second half we were on our toes ready to get some more goals."
Saint Louis Head Coach Tim Champion:
"It's disappointing to lose but we were playing one of the best teams in the country on the road. We worked hard, played well. They are a very, very, very good team and they are going to go a long way in the tournament and possibly win the national title. So, we're proud of how we played."

Cambridge, Mass.-UMBC junior attackman Joe Lustgarten (Wading River, N.Y./Wading River) was named America East Conference Men's Lacrosse Player of the Week for games ending March 31, 2012.
Lustgarten smashed career highs with five goals and eight total points, leading host UMBC to a 16-12 victory over Hartford in the America East Conference opener for both squads.
The 5'10, 160-lb. southpaw surpassed his previous single-game top totals of three goals and four points by the 6:27 mark of the second quarter as contributed a point on five of UMBC's first seven goals, scoring four times and helping on another. He is the first Retriever to score eight points in a game since Ryan Smith had five goals and three assists vs. Albany in the 2008 campaign.
Lustgarten, who scored five goals on six on the night, has eight goals and four assists in his last two contests vs. Hartford. He leads the squad with 11 assists and is second with 18 points.
UMBC faces cross-town rival Towson at Johnny Unitas Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Facebook Bug Exposed Contact Information Stored On Profiles
Facebook has discovered a bug that compromised contact information for millions of people. The company estimates that about 6 million users had email addresses or telephone numbers inadvertently shared with others they have a connection to.
CNN explains how the accidental sharing occurred:
"The bug, which has since been repaired, was part of the Download Your Information tool, which lets Facebook users export all the data from profiles, such as posts to their timeline and conversations with friends. People using the tool may have downloaded inadvertently the contact information for people they were somehow connected to."
Facebook adds that the addresses or numbers were shared only with one person "in almost all cases," and that the information was accessible only to people on Facebook — not to developers or advertisers.
"It's still something we're upset and embarrassed by, and we'll work doubly hard to make sure nothing like this happens again," the company says.

The Southington Police Department is still awaiting the cause of death of William Gillan, whose body was found alongside that of his mother Mildred Gillan at their Cedar Lane residence late last month.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner has determined that 86-year-old Mildred's death was due to natural causes. Police are still awaiting word from the medical examiner on the cause of 60-year-old William's death.
Police discovered the bodies after performing a welfare check at 27 Cedar Lane on Wednesday, Jan. 23. A mail carrier had noticed newspapers piling up outside the homes and alerted police.
The Southington Fire Department, which assisted the police department in entering the house, tested the home for carbon monoxide and other hazardous gases before entering. No elevated levels were found.

This study group is based on the book, Patterns for Jazz by Jerry Coker et al.
Complete thread index for this study group here:
Post a "deadline version" video of any or all of the weekly patterns, by Sunday each week, following this schedule:
Mar 10: patterns 1-4
Mar 17: patterns 5-6
Mar 24: patterns 7-10
Mar 31: patterns 11-12
Please, state the BPM you're using, which pattern(s) you're posting, and label the post "deadline version", (understanding that a more "final version" may take additional time etc). Please state whether you would like comments on your playing. If you want the best comments possible, please be specific on exactly what you want comments on. "Especially my time/feel/right hand technique" etc etc. There are exceptions, but generally, people will be pretty vague and overly polite if they don't know exactly what you're looking for, ....what your experience level is , ...what your goals are etc.
Additionally, please look ahead to upcoming weeks , and post preliminary versions if you want, especially if you are newer to this kind of work and want to take some of the edge off... or pressure etc. Posting an early baseline version will give other players a frame of reference to compare things to later, rather than just comparing you to "every other player".
I've already posted one for the first week in the other thread, and my primary goal at this point only has to be somewhat improving on that, if I choose to see it that way.
I personally would encourage any types of questions regarding these exercises as to their purpose , technical approaches , specific problems as related to guitar fretboard organization etc. etc. Please note that if you do NOT intend to post playing in this thread, your comments regarding the purpose word validity of these exercises belongs in a separate thread of your own creation elsewhere. Thanks.
Please PM me corrections or post in the previous thread.

Okay, to break the ice, I'll repost my preliminary version.
My goals for my deadline version this week are:
*to improve the audio of my drum genius backing by plugging into speakersand fixing volume,
*to get a little better gain setting on my camera and possibly improve the tone of this electric otherwise.
*to post these at the maximum of the "suggested tempo" range in the book with the best time and swing feel I can manage.
All of my music day job and playing/teaching is with acoustic, and I'm really lazy about even plugging this thing in. It's definitely something I want to improve on. Tone generally that is. Probably need to get some real jazz plectrums among other things... :-) I'm using the neck pickup , which is a humbucker. The tone knob is almost all the way on the treble side with flat wound chromes. I'd have to look at the amp settings when I get home, but it's pretty bad amp for this purpose, honestly.
I am making an iReal playlist for this group.
Let me know if are interested in sharing.
Hey Matt... so patterns 1-148 are great... I'll post whatever you want.... I can sightread any of these, and already have fingerings internalized. I could post possible fingerings for each pattern.
When you get to patterns 149-233.... might want to insert the same previous patterns in melodic minor before. Would be much more useful for playing Jazz.... and then harmonic Min. (maybe even harmonic Maj.)... then patterns 149-233, the symmetric scales and arpeggios... If you don't do it up front... you'll just need to do it later. Symmetric scales and arpeggios have harmonic relationships to functional harmony... (not just Major).
A note... when one works on these patterns... try and not look at neck while you play. It will be difficult, so go back and forth between watching and not. Getting away from starring at your guitar while you play just take practice and is part of performance.
I'd especially be interested in your take on some of the ii-V's. There's always discussion of thinking of them in terms of either the II or the V alone, but it occurs to me in thinking of these cycles, that on the guitar, it may as well be as much dependent on position as pure musical considerations. For example, if the root of the II is on 6th string, you may as well consider as if it's all II and "spell" the line as-if...
Maybe different if root is on 5th? I have to want to see them more as V.
Anyway, would be interested in your take...
I actually found that someone has already posted the first 103 exercises in the iReal book forum so I can send you that playlist. PM me your email address.
That goes for anyone else that would like the playlist as well. PM me your email address and I will forward you the playlist. Or, you can look it up on the forum.
Second post on this page for IReal playlist:

Few comments.
First way through (E and A string roots) is familiar. All 2nd finger roots. I could play that much faster.
Second way through uses more fingerings (2nd, 3rd and 4th finger roots) and includes roots on the D string. Don't have this down at all.
I have iRealPro on my phone but as I used the phone to record video, I didn't want to use it as a backing track (fearing it would be too loud in the mix). So I used my Zipbeat metronome. May have to switch to a webcam for future videos."Learn the repertoire. It's all in the songs. If you learn 200 songs, you will have no problem improvising."

Isn't the deadline version the final version after working on it for a week?
I don't know if I'll post a preliminary version this week. I'm still trying to work out some bugs in my audio/video setup. Thought I would get that ironed out this weekend, but it didn't happen.
My approach for the sake of this group is going to be working the material through three positions - E A D set, A D G set and D G B set - staying in strict position for each set. I'm specifically trying to avoid just memorizing patterns and shapes on the fingerboard and forcing myself to be aware of the name of each root and the intervals I'm playing. To this end, I'm calling out the roots as I go through each exercise.
I can play all four exercise without much trouble freestyle, but as soon as I throw a backing track on, I start fumbling around and missing the mark or getting lost on which root comes next. Certain things are throwing me off at this point. Thinking Gb rather than F# is a big one. I never realized such a simple thing could mess with my head and hands. Remembering the sequence of roots in minor thirds is completely foreign to me at this point as well.
My goal for the week will be to get each set down well enough to play to the track without mistakes and hesitation.
My overall goal for working this material is that I want to get to the point where I can play any scale or arpeggio in any key from wherever my hand is on the fingerboard without having to think about it.

So here is my first post on patterns 1-4. I hope I'm doing what we're supposed to be doing here. It's strange how I've played jazz guitar now for over 20 years and these basic triad patterns were tricky! The 5/4 pattern also threw me. But here it is, clams and all!

Looks like a party, I'll see if I can hang.
Pattern 1, 100bpm, pattern 2 110bpm
Something different, I hope to sing all the patterns. But, I won't always subject you to the singing. Intonation is a challenge at this tempo (well, honestly, intonation is always a challenge at any tempo).
Goal is to speed up and clean up. I want my left hand fingers that aren't fretting a note to stay tight/close to the strings, I want my pick motion to be more compact, I want to tighten up my rhythm.
Frank (aka fep)
Wow. Kind of lit this thread up today. Good stuff. Thanks for posting, everyone.
"Weekending" works as well as anything. That's what I meant by "deadline". I just didn't like the sound of "final" version on something like this...
I really like seeing the different approaches.
That drum genius pattern has been one of my go-to's as well. Infectious... Did you check out the "Take 5" pattern? It may be a little on the fast side. I'd have to look, but it works well for this 5/4 pattern. There's another New Orleans 5/4 that's way faster than the target BPM but is a lot of fun too.
Hey Matt... it's just time on skill thing....
For me i hear what I'm playing so even when I miss... on larger leaps, I move one way or the other, (grace note0. Generally it's just changing your habit of watching.
The other side... you can watch some great players... who stare at their neck. It won't happen by it's self.

I'd be interested in others' s take on that D- forum arp, in terms of what might be consensus anyway (maybe Christian uses this one?). Seems like I remember Mike Christiansen using a pinky shift up the fretboard on the second string for that upper octave. So his D-form would be 2-1-1-4 from the same fret as the A-form. I'd have to look back. Anyway, your fingers are so long, you make everything look like it's a one position. :-)
I just read through the first 16 patterns....
So it seems that one should work through in positions
When I sight read through, I played them all between 5th and 7th position. Which used standard position shapes. There are a few options... but seem to lay easily on fretboard.
I tried a few others... 2nd to 4th, then 8th - 10th.... they all seem to work.
It seems that eventually when we get to larger arpeggios... 6ths, 7th, 9ths etc... you need to have shapes that fit into positions, I don't think it will matter whats system you use... caged, 3 notes per string or 7 positions.... the point is to have a fretboard system that repeats.
Eventually your not going to have to figure fingerings...they will be internalized and you will only be choosing how you want the pattern to sound, different fingerings have different natural articulations etc...
I don't like the "C Position" fingering for major arpeggios because it to easily becomes sweep picking-articulation.
Somehow this very terse summary just clicked for me. I feel like I understand now why I've inclined toward playing some things a certain way.
Day made. Not even 1 PM and I can go to bed happy!- Lawson
"Whenever you come near the human race, there's layers and layers of nonsense." - Thornton Wilder, Our Town
So I've slightly modified my approach on this.
After reading Reg's comments about position playing, I'm putting more emphasis on position playing. It was a better way to organize this a little and not be completely random. Still gives me a lot of benefit of making choices but just kind of reels it in a little bit from being a free for all and I like that. It just makes sense that you would probably naturally play out of a position and then shift positions as opposed to randomly jumping around, Although I'm not counting that out haha.
Thanks for starting this thread and excercise, Matt. I'm a little blown away with some of the benefits I'm already seeing with regard to fretboard freedom. Just in these first 4 patterns I can already sense that I'm seeing the fretboard a little more clearly but also I'm hearing it .
I find not looking to be a crazy challenge, especially on the circle of 5ths and the minor 3rd transitions. wow. I am trying not to be buried in the fretboard though. Just gonna take some time.
Anybody else feel there is 3 months of study in just these first 4 patterns? lol
oh, and I just wanted to add.....
I can also see how these first major patterns are a springboard for extensions, dominant and minor patterns coming so I wouldn't expect every few groups of patterns to take 3 months, but certainly these major patterns are foundational in nature and for me, worth spending a lot of time organizing them.
I'll make a video later.
As for CAGED, I got the five fingerings (got them down, I should say) via Jimmy Bruno. He hates the term CAGED. Joe Pass liked it. They're really the same. But I didn't learn it thinking of CAGED. To Jimmy, the fingerings are named for the lowest note in the fingering. For Jimmy, if you're in C, the lowest (closed) fingering has the root on the A string, 3rd fret. But the lowest note in the position is G, the 5th of C, so that's fingering 5. Fingering 6 starts on A, and fingering 7 starts on B. Fingering 2 starts on D and fingering 3 on E.
And this is why Jimmy prefers "pitch collection" to "scale." Fingering 5 turns out to be (in C): G A B C D E F G A B C D E F G A. That's all the notes of the C scale but you don't play it root to root, you play all the available notes in the position.
I relate this to Pat Martino's "five activities" in his book "Linear Expressions." (Same 6-4-3-2 chord inversions of m7 chords.) But that's another story. ;o)"Learn the repertoire. It's all in the songs. If you learn 200 songs, you will have no problem improvising."
Frank Vignola
I'm implementing Michael Kaye's approach of staying in the same area of the neck. I like that it forces one to use a bunch of different patterns. Never the same pattern consecutively.
Also, fyi in case some don't know. Jerry Coker is not a guitarist, he is a saxophonist and educator. Thus, no specific guitar position or fingering guidance in this book.
Regarding Matt's request about how we are using the D form:
I am using the Caged D form at parts of this video, actually I'm using all 5 forms in this video. I play the D Form per the attached 1st measure. I'll sometimes combine the D and C form as in the 2nd measure. There is no rule that you can't combine the CAGED positions, no rule you have to be "CAGED" in with CAGED. I think those that criticize the CAGED system don't consider that the positions get combined to create these hybrid positions.
(The 3-2-1-1 that Mark described is not a D form, it is the E form as Matt mentioned).

If trying to deepen awareness of the fingerboard is one of your goals
then I would consider practicing the patterns in the context of 5 fret positions.
2 1/3 octaves of the chromatic scale and one unison are contained in every 5 frets.
Pick any 5 frets and stay there for the whole pattern. For chromatic ascending,
I would suggest starting on the lowest possible chord in the position
and continuing to the highest one rather than C (ex. 1st position F major > A major)
This yields most of the standard fingering possibilities as well as several awkward ones.
In my opinion, there is also value in learning to problem solve best possible fingering solutions
for more awkward note locations.
Here's a quick take on the first pattern in two octaves. Planning to work on cleanliness and time feeling!

Recorded this with my iTrack Pocket. The guitar was not plugged into the Pocket, so the voice and guitar were captured by the Pocket's external mics. First attempt (with this device) to record talk and playing. I think it came out well enough for what I was trying to do.
Fingering choices...

The way I was taught by a CAGED guru, the source isn't scales, it's chords.
Play a D major chord in open position, as Bill Thrasher called them, "play a D cowboy chord". Okay, now play the D minor cowboy chord (open position). Those are both D form chords from the CAGED system. D major7, D7, Dm7, all in open position and all D form. And if you want to approach them with CST, they have different scale fingerings / pitch collections for the major, minor, or dominant versions, but named based on the CAGED chord position, not on a scale. It's a chord grip approach first.
I think it's an important distinction that changes ones perspective. From the very start one is more aware of chord tones, and ones playing is more chord tone directed (for better or worse).

Hey Frank... position playing can also be based on chords... there really isn't any approach difference between playing caged patterns or 7 position chord patterns... Both systems create patterns... just different patterns.
Personally... every single note I play is a chord. I think most don't realize the chordal aspects of position playing because they didn't get taught that way. (maybe that's why many young guitarist can't comp). Was that the way you were introduced to position playing... through scales only. Gets to that problems of teachers ....not really understanding what they're teaching.
At what age is the student responsible etc...
I also like caged sounds and patterns created from. They are very Guitar friendly and open position organization is generally where most guitarist start... seems natural for the instrument. Like playing pentatonics on guitar compared to piano which create much more difficult fingerings... and sax, gets weird in B.
Anyway... when you eventually get to playing these same patterns using 9th's 11th's and 13th's and chords from Harmonic and melodic minor... it's helpfull to be aware and able to use other shapes along with caged.
But I definitely like your point about being aware of CHORDS concept.
Aside: I went through this thread and clicked on most of the pattern videos, so they played at the same time. Instant Ornette!Build bridges, not walls.
Here's what probably should be a more finished version, but I accidentally lined up the world's worst camera angle. Needed to retune by the last pattern as well. I'll see if I can do something better on Friday maybe.
These are versions of me doing it the way reg talked about in a post above. I can "think" in 7th position pretty well, but I need to work on adding some others to my more solid, go-to positions for sure. I'd appreciate any comments/tips on tone especially. I'm a long-time acoustic guy and too lazy with electric honestly.
Any comments on any aspect appreciated. Thanks.

I started that thing a couple of years ago I guess around the time of epic Benson picking discussion. I read up on it some and tried to come up with something that basically works or whatever. My main requirement of myself was that I would generally try to do the angle and NOT think about right-hand much otherwise. I change the grip here and there, from time to time , depending on mood , style music, and how long once been playing etc. I never obsess over it or overanalyze the right hand. The Benson thread cured me of that. :-)
99% of my focus has been on cleaning up left-hand stuff, and I've just kind of gotten some right hand for free.
Honestly, it's gonna sound weird, but I think the most helpful thing for me with picking (and everything else really) has been working on subdividing more. I played triplets on everything for a while, and I noticed that the unintended consequence was that my eighth notes sounded much better, (or even quarter notes etc). You subconsciously learn to start planting the pick on specific subdivisions etc. My plectrum "hears" much faster than I could ever think. Anyway, one day I looked down and realized that basically I'm doing reststrokes on a lot of my up-strokes? Weird...
You are my study group hero by the way. :-) The Frank groups are hands-down the best threads ever. A real forum legacy.

Thanks guys , this is a great community.
This study group looks really promising... I think it's mostly about getting a good group of participants that stick to it. The material for this study group looks to be capsulized well into sections which I think will work well.B+
Frank (aka fep)
So it's Thursday. Post more finished versions or different versions of this week if you like, by Sunday.
Also, begin posting more preliminary versions of the next couple weeks or so as you see fit. Also post thoughts, questions observations and ideas about fingering approaches or anything else related to these upcoming patterns. Thanks.

Only time will tell how the upcoming football season will play out for the Broncos of San Juan High School.
Many 2A football fans, and some coaches, may feel San Juan will not be the dominant team they have been in the past.
In most cases, they would probably right. After all, the Broncos lost more than 6,000 yards of offense to graduation.
On the other hand, anyone who is familiar with the program realizes that San Juan rarely has rebuilding years. Instead, they tend to reload as unknown players see their hard work and dedication pay off now that it's their turn to take the field and become new household names around Blanding and throughout the 2A ranks.
Taking over the reins on the offense will be senior quarterback Terrance Tate, who Coach Monty Lee has called "a smart kid and a hard worker".
The Broncos will also have a strong stable of running backs as senior Jens Grover, junior Max Morley and sophomore Bronz Eldredge solidify the backfield with Tate.
The Bronco backs will benefit playing behind a strong offensive line which returns three players with starting experience.
"We have big strong kids up front," Lee said.
Three of those big strong kids are Chase Richmond, who will resume his spot at center, Ben Brewer and Brayden Giddings, who will play guard and tackle respectively.
Defensively the Broncos return only two starters, Giddings and Eldredge, who helped anchor a strong defensive line.
Already garnering attention from college programs, Eldredge looks to improve on his impressive freshman campaign (83 tackles 17 for a loss and 5.5 sacks) when he moves from defensive tackle to a more natural fit at middle linebacker.
Although lack of experience suggests otherwise, the coaches and players alike feel the 2013 defense will be right on par with the stingy San Juan defenses of the past few years.
In spite of all the changes and challenges the Broncos face in their 2013 season, Lee remains optimistic, adding, "These kids are going to surprise a lot of people."
The Broncos open their season Friday, August 23 against the Warriors of Snow Canyon High School. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

|German Chocolate Bars for my Dad's Birthday
German Chocolate Bars | Pecan, Coconut & Chocolate Bars
My Dad loves anything chocolate - his favorite being German Chocolate Cake. The icing of German Chocolate Cake is a pecan and coconut caramel icing. I decided to try to incorporate chocolate, pecan and coconut into a 'mail-able' cookie bar to send to him for his birthday.
I had some fudge brownies around the house (that I needed to get rid of before I finished them off!) so I used that to crumble into the bar, but I think I will use semi-sweet chocolate chips next time. So, this recipe shows the chocolate chip version, but feel free to be creative and incorporate any sort of chocolate you have.
This recipe is based around The Barefoot Contessa's Pecan Bars. I used her shortbread cookie crust and the caramel for the pecans, but added toasted coconut and chocolate.
I was making a 1/3 batch... 1/3 of the pan. The entire recipe calls for 3 eggs and makes 24 bars.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Make caramel topping by melting butter, corn syrup and brown sugar together.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until the top has set.
Cut in half.
Mike thought I was nuts. "You're saving string?" "Yes, I'm saving string - it is cute string."
Shortbread Cookie Crust*
*I love shortbread crusts, my mom's cheesecake uses this sort of crust instead of graham cracker - it is so good and more special than graham cracker.
1 1/4 pounds unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 extra-large eggs
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt 1 pound unsalted butter
1 cup corn syrup
3 cups light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 pounds pecans, coarsely chopped
2 cups of coconut (toasted, if you like)
1 cup of chocolate chips
For the crust, combine sugar and butter in a mixer until light, about 3 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla, combine. Add flour, salt & baking powder - stir just until combined.
Press the dough into a baking sheet. It helps to sort of make a raised edge around the sides. Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
For the topping, melt butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add honey and brown sugar. Cook over low heat for 2-3 minutes, then raise the heat and cook for 2-3 more minutes, boiling. Remove from heat, add pecans and coconut.
On the crust, sprinkled the chocolate chips. Pour over the pecan topping, spreading evenly. Bake for 25 minutes. Let it set out, then cool in the refrigerator to make it easier to cut. Cut it into large squares when it has cooled.

Beware the Tech Bubble—But Stay Calm
How to Reap the Best of the Sector While Staving Off Irrational Exuberance
I spend a lot of time worrying about the next tech bubble. It's my job to worry, of course, and this year, worrying became a full-time occupation.
Ever since Facebook's stock price rebounded this year to the level of its initial public offering, tech startups have seen an incredible run-up in valuations. Boxrecently raised financing that valued the data-storage company for businesses at $2 billion, almost double its value when it raised funds in the summer of last year.

HTC One X AT&T Pictures
HTC One X for AT&T will be flaunting a mighty 4.7-inch 720p HD display with Gorilla Glass, which will be further enhanced thanks to its wide-viewing angles and its ability to connect it to a TV wire-free with the aid of an optional wireless HDMI adapter. Running the show from behind the scenes, its next-generation 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor (no quad-core folks) will be doing its best to keep things rolling along. Not surprisingly, it'll be flying through the air with its 4G LTE connectivity as well, but for those concerned about battery consumption, it's worth mentioning that it'll be carrying along an 1,800 mAh battery

I found this to be an excellent course that fully met all my expectations. I most certainly would recommend it for anyone who wants to become more proficient with the eBay auction process, both as a buyer and as a seller. Now that I have completed the course, I feel much more able to proceed to my ultimate goal of establishing a home-based business aimed at selling on eBay and other online auction sites. Thanks to Kara and Shirley for an enlightening learning experience.
I have been an eBay user for several years as both a Buyer and a Seller, and have over 500 positive feedbacks. I consider myself an experienced "eBayer", however I was self-taught which is why I signed up for your class. In each and every lesson during your class I learned something new! I highly recommend your class for not only the beginner but also the experienced eBay user.
I was more than satisfied with this course. It far exceeded any expectations that I had and I will definitely consider taking another course with these instructors.
The 6 weeks went by quickly and I look forward to using eBay now that I have the knowledge learned in this course.
This course really exceeded my expectations, it was enlightening, entertaining and informative. This course has removed all of my obstacles to becoming an active eBay participant. Many thanks.
This course was very informative and covered the subject matter thoroughly. I learned a great deal and plan to use this in the future. It was presented in an organized way and was both educational and enjoyable. I could not make a single recommendation for improvement. Thank you very much.
This was just what I needed. Your class was very thorough and an amazing value. I expect to make the price back after my first few auctions. I have already recommended this class to several of my friends. Thanks again.
Two great instructors. You have put me in business! I took this course to learn how to generate additional income on the internet. It appears that you have given me a fool proof formula for success. THANKS!
Very useful course. I plan to use most of the lessons from this course to help occasionally sell some unneeded items.

An Organic, Elegant Art Deco-Inspired Wedding at the Residence Inn in Cincinnati, Ohio
Brittani Ealy (28 and a licensed cosmetologist) and Erikka Gray (36 and a manager/entrepreneur) met on social media while living far apart. At the time, Brittani was living in Maryland and Erikka was in Ohio, so their first date had to wait until they were both in Kentucky for Brittani's graduation. They hit it off at Bar Louie's "and closed the place down," Brittani says. Their chemistry was unmistakable. For the next year, they dated long-distance until Brittani moved home to Ohio, and not long after, they got engaged when Erikka proposed during a surprise engagement party. Their wedding was a perfect combination of their skill sets—Brittani's creative/crafty side for decor ideas—including combining Brittani's and Erikka's initials, "BE," and an art deco hexagon/honeycomb beehive theme—and Brittani's organization and planning to fine-tune the details. The Ault Park Rose Garden was the perfect ceremony spot, requiring no additional decor, thanks to the beauty of the perennial gardens and arbor-covered area. Also appealing was their two-aisle ceremony, giving each bride her shining moment. Before exchanging handwritten vows, Brittani and Erikka took part in a hand-washing unity ceremony, signifying the washing away of past failures and mistakes for a fresh start into their marriage. After the wedding their 75 guests moved to the Residence Inn for the reception, where a wall-cover tapestry of gold hexagons served as the backdrop during a delicious buffet dinner (complete with crab cakes); a cake carried the hexagon pattern and blue, gold and ivory colors, and favors were custom candles with a signature wedding scent of grapefruit and sage. For a magical end to a magical evening, the dance took place on the roof, with breathtaking views of Cincinnati. —Chrissy Sorenson

Background and Scope
The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) is partnering with the National Vaccine Program Office (NVPO) to support community intervention activities targeting outreach to specific populations where stimulating immunization improvements would improve health outcomes. NVPO is responsible for coordinating and ensuring collaboration among the many federal agencies involved in vaccine and immunization activities. NVPO provides leadership and coordination as they work together to carry out the goals of the National Vaccine Plan. The National Vaccine Plan provides a framework, including goals, objectives, and strategies, for pursuing the prevention of infectious diseases through immunizations. See Appendix 1: Healthy People 2020 Objectives.
The purpose of these administrative supplements is to support evidence-based demonstration projects designed to decrease infectious diseases by stimulating immunization rate improvements of children, adolescents, pregnant women and adults in one or more health disparity populations. Potential awards would be targeted to efforts related to preventive, educational, or wellness services supported through academic health care or community health care settings.
Community intervention activities shall consist of targeted outreach to any of the specified populations below:
Adult Immunization activities should include the following focus:
The following focus areas are strongly encouraged in combination with proven strategies:
Evidence –based Strategy Requirements:
Applicants should include one or more known Community Preventive Services Task Force (CPSTF) recommended strategies and may include, but are not limited to: community outreach/education activities; developing vaccination reminder/recall systems; creating media messaging. Innovative approaches which offer a strong rationale and an evaluation metric will also be considered.
Funded immunization projects must show how they plan to successfully demonstrate how their proposed project/activities will utilize innovative, evidence-based strategies (as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the CPSTF to strengthen existing immunization systems. CPSTF recommends that effective interventions to increase vaccination coverage among high-risk adult populations (http://www.thecommunityguide.org/vaccines/universally/index.html) consist of activities that:
Supplement requests must clearly identify measurable outcome(s) expected to result from the proposed work. Projects that do not include measurable outcomes will not be funded. A "measurable outcome" is an observable end-result that describes how a particular intervention benefits consumers. It demonstrates the "impact" of the intervention. It can also describe a change in the degree to which consumers exercise choice over the types of services they receive, or whether they are satisfied with the way a service is delivered. Additional examples include: a change in the responsiveness or cost-effectiveness of a service delivery system; a new model of support or care that can be replicated; new knowledge; a measurable increase in community awareness; or a measurable increase in persons receiving services. A measurable outcome is not a measurable "output", such as: the number of clients served; the number of training sessions held; or the number of service units provided.
Funding Instrument
The funding instrument will be the same as the parent award.
Grant: A support mechanism providing money, property, or both to an eligible entity to carry out an approved project or activity.
Cooperative Agreement: A support mechanism used when there will be substantial Federal scientific or programmatic involvement. Substantial involvement means that, after award, NIH scientific or program staff will assist, guide, coordinate, or participate in project activities.

Upon receipt, applications will be evaluated for completeness and/or responsiveness by the awarding Institute or Center. Applications that are incomplete and/or nonresponsive will not be reviewed.
Not Applicable
Administrative Supplements do not receive peer review. Instead, the administrative criteria described below will be considered in the administrative evaluation process.
The staff of the NIH awarding component will evaluate requests for a supplement to determine its overall merit. The following general criteria will be used:
Budget and Period of Support
NIH Staff will consider whether the budget and the requested period of support are fully justified and reasonable in relation to the proposed research.
Overall Impact
NIH staff will consider the ability of the proposed supplement activities to increase or preserve the parent award's overall impact within the original scope of award:
In addition, each of the following criteria will be evaluated as applicable for the proposed supplement.
Protections for Human Subjects:
For research that involves human subjects but does
not involve one of the six categories of research that are exempt under 45 CFR
Part 46, NIH staff will evaluate the justification for involvement of human
subjects and the proposed protections from research risk relating to their
participation according to the following five review criteria: 1) risk to subjects,
2) adequacy of protection against risks, 3) potential benefits to the subjects
and others, 4) importance of the knowledge to be gained, and 5) data and safety
monitoring for clinical trials.
For research that involves human subjects and meets the criteria for one or more of the six categories of research that are exempt under 45 CFR Part 46, NIH staff will evaluate: 1) the justification for the exemption, 2) human subjects involvement and characteristics, and 3) sources of materials. For additional information on review of the Human Subjects section, please refer to the Human Subjects Protection and Inclusion Guidelines.
Inclusion of Women, Minorities, and Children
When the proposed project involves clinical research, NIH staff will evaluate the proposed plans for inclusion of minorities and members of both genders, as well as the inclusion of children. For additional information on review of the Inclusion section, please refer to the Human Subjects Protection and Inclusion Guidelines.
Vertebrate Animals
NIH Staff will evaluate the involvement of live vertebrate animals as part of the scientific assessment according to the following five points: 1) proposed use of the animals, and species, strains, ages, sex, and numbers to be used; 2) justifications for the use of animals and for the appropriateness of the species and numbers proposed; 3) adequacy of veterinary care; 4) procedures for limiting discomfort, distress, pain and injury to that which is unavoidable in the conduct of scientifically sound research including the use of analgesic, anesthetic, and tranquilizing drugs and/or comfortable restraining devices; and 5) methods of euthanasia and reason for selection if not consistent with the AVMA Guidelines on Euthanasia. For additional information on review of the Vertebrate Animals section, please refer to the Worksheet for Review of the Vertebrate Animal Section.
NIH Staff will assess whether materials or procedures proposed are potentially hazardous to research personnel and/or the environment, and if needed, determine whether adequate protection is proposed.
Administrative supplement requests will undergo an
administrative evaluation by NIH staff, but not a full peer review. Applications
submitted for this funding opportunity will be assigned to the awarding
component for the parent award and will be administratively evaluated using the
criteria shown above.
Not Applicable
A formal notification in the form of a Notice of Award (NoA)
will be provided to the applicant organization for successful applications.
This may be as an NoA for the supplemental activities only; alternatively, it
may be as either a revision to the current year NoA or included as part of a
future year NoA. The NoA signed by the grants management officer is the
authorizing document and will be sent via email to the grantee's business
Awardees must comply with any funding restrictions described in Section IV.5. Funding Restrictions. Selection of an application for award is not an authorization to begin performance. Any costs incurred before receipt of the NoA are at the recipient's risk. These costs may be reimbursed only to the extent considered allowable pre-award costs.
Any application awarded in response to this FOA will be subject to the DUNS, SAM Registration, and Transparency Act requirements as noted on the Award Conditions and Information for NIH Grants website.
All NIH grant and cooperative agreement awards include the NIH Grants Policy Statement as part of the NoA. For these terms of award, see the NIH Grants Policy Statement Part II: Terms and Conditions of NIH Grant Awards, Subpart A: General and Part II: Terms and Conditions of NIH Grant Awards, Subpart B: Terms and Conditions for Specific Types of Grants, Grantees, and Activities. More information is provided at Award Conditions and Information for NIH Grants.
Cooperative Agreement Terms and Conditions of Award
Any supplements to Cooperative Agreements will be subject to the same Cooperative Agreement terms and conditions as the parent award.
Reporting requirements will be specified in the terms and conditions of award as applicable to the supplemental activities. In most non-competing continuation applications, the progress report and budget for the supplement must be included with, but clearly delineated from, the progress report and budget for the parent award. The progress report must include information about the activities supported by the supplement even if support for future years is not requested. Continuation of support for the supplement activities in the remaining years of the competitive segment of the grant will depend upon satisfactory review by the NIH awarding component of progress for both the parent award and the supplement project, the research proposed for the next budget period, and the appropriateness of the proposed budget for the proposed effort. This information is submitted with the Non-Competing Grant Progress Report, PHS 2590 or RPPR, and financial statements as required in the NIH Grants Policy Statement.
The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (Transparency Act), includes a requirement for awardees of Federal grants to report information about first-tier subawards and executive compensation under Federal assistance awards issued in FY2011 or later. All awardees of applicable NIH grants and cooperative agreements are required to report to the Federal Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) available at www.fsrs.gov on all subawards over $25,000. See the NIH Grants Policy Statement for additional information on this reporting requirement.
We encourage inquiries concerning this funding opportunity and welcome the opportunity to answer questions from potential applicants.

FINAL: VCU 57, Coppin State 46 (Baltimore, Md.)
VCU STARTERS: #1 Atwater, #22 Williams, #23 Pellechio, #24 Parks, #30 Henry, S.
COPPIN STATE STARTERS: #12 Holsey, #14 Craig, #20 Coleman, #30 Spotwood, #34 Carter
THE BASICS: VCU picked up its third straight win and fifth in its last six games Saturday afternoon with a 57-46 victory at Coppin State. Junior Robyn Parks led all scorers with a game-high 19 points, freshman Jessica Pellechio chipped in 13, and junior Shekina Henry posted her first career double-double with 12 points and 12 rebounds. The Rams used a strong second half performance for the third game in a row, holding Coppin State scoreless during a 10-minute stretch. VCU also held its second straight opponent under 50 points.
- Trailing 8-3 at the 15:24 mark, Coppin State used a quick 10-2 spurt, including six straight points during a 20-second span, to pull ahead 13-10 four minutes later.
- VCU halted the rally with 13 straight points from five different Rams, kept the Eagles off the board for more than seven minutes and built a 23-13 advantage with 4:23 left in the opening period.
- Coppin State then came to life, knocking down a pair of 3-pointers, while adding four straight from the free throw line to take its first lead, 25-23, since the 11:02 mark.
- A layup from Leola Spotwood gave the Eagles a two-point advantage with seven seconds left, but freshman Kaneisha Atwater drew a foul as time expired and converted a pair from the line to knot the score at 27-27 at the break.
- Trailing 34-33 with 15:03 remaining, VCU erupted hitting four 3-pointers (4-of-7), including three straight from Pellechio, and used a 24-6 run to put the game out of reach.
- The Rams locked down on defense and outscored Coppin State 15-0 during a 10-minute stretch late in the second half.
- VCU eventually took its largest lead of the game, 57-40, with 2:59 to go.
- Junior Zakia Williams added seven points, five rebounds, a team-high four assists and four steals.
- Parks added a career-best six steals, while Pellechio grabbed a career-high tying six rebounds to go along with four steals.
- For the first time this season, VCU was held without a first-half 3-pointer (0-of-5), but knocked down four of its first seven to start the second stanza.
- VCU's defense forced a season-high 26 turnovers.
- The Rams held Coppin State to 28.6 percent shooting (16-of-56). It was the third straight game VCU has held an opponent to less than 30-percent from the field.
WHAT'S AHEAD: After playing seven of its first nine games on the road to start the season, VCU returns to the Verizon Wireless Arena for a season-long three-game homestand, beginning against East Carolina on Dec. 16 at 1 p.m. Check VCUAthletics.com for complete game coverage.

Everyone who knows me knows how much I adore my wife. I love everything about her. She brings no end of enjoyment to my life; she is a book in progress that I cannot put down.
Recently we were travelling together on a tour bus on our way to Florence (that's another story). I noticed her hand gently clutching her camera in her lap. What first struck me about this otherwise common occurrence was that she didn't hold it possessively in a kind of condescension, or in a cold indifference, as if it was expected that she should be toting a camera; no, she held the instrument as she would a blessing, a gift, and a privilege. She cradled her camera with a sense of thankfulness. There was no ostentation in her grip--the designer's imprint meant very little to her. She held her camera protectively, as she might hold a child's hand. She did this not so much because the camera was expensive and she wanted to keep it from harm--although, I suppose, in all honesty, that was part of it. More importantly, and what was clearly evident from her loving grasp, she was keeping safe the memories recorded there--those hard copies of slices of her life and the lives of those friends and family she so cherished, all carefully archived for posterity.
I love to hold my wife's hand. Through that lovely soft hand of hers she so often feeds me with a strength and solidarity that has no other origin, and she invariably effects this when I need it the most. She understands me so well as to know precisely when to take my hand. And I am always the better for it. I trust, too, that through that same hand she also receives from me the confidence and solace that sometimes elude her. I at least pray that that will be so.
Perhaps it is rather morbid to suggest, but if ever I would be fortunate enough to be next to her when my life is fading away, I should want to be holding her hand. I can think of no better way to die than to see the escorting angel smile and feel my wife's assurance--to pass from this life to life eternal in seamless love.
I enjoy watching my wife's hands--studying them--marveling at their beauty and form--reveling in their charm and industry. Her hands are purposeful in all they do, kind to all they touch, and gifted in all they accomplish. My wife's hands are the ready instruments of God's love.
