sample the album:
"Trumpeter Susana Santos Silva became one of the most important ambassadors of Portuguese jazz in the world, and in this new opus we find her in notable company - a quartet of amazing musicians picked among the many with whom she's playing with these days, like Joe Morris, Mats Gustafsson, Fred Frith, Christine Wodrascka, Mat Maneri, Craig Taborn, Thomas Morgan and Tom Chant, to name just a few.
The first impression you have when grabbing this CD is that you're going to hear a dream band. Santos Silva with Lotte Anker, Sten Sandell, Torbjorn Zetterberg and Jon Falt? No way! But it's true and that is the kind of truth which transforms something into a gem. More special even when the music reflects a spiritual discovery, in this case "the blessing and beauty of impermanence in my life, in the world and in all the things that are", as Susana puts it herself on the liner notes.
How does that mirror effect happen? Giving you a only apparently contradiction, a "peaceful state of being" manifesting in a "restless and resilient" way. To play life means to play urgently, intensely and honestly, and that's precisely the peace of mind Susana Santos Silva need to create a map of sounds. You don't want to miss this."-Cleran Feed
"It begins with the trumpet, then the soprano sax. They judder, twist and clash. It's spellbinding. Add some perfectly-placed bass notes, and minimal touches of piano and drums... slowly the hall fills with free sound - unnerving and uplifting in equal measure. It's a glorious racket, and despite the density at times there's also a great feeling of space, every interjection, exclamation and punctuation rings out clear and momentary. It's a powerful, and even muscular, start to the afternoon. At one point, Silva utilises some extended techniques, using the mouthpiece alone for a flute-like tone, passing breath directly through the valves, and so on. Meanwhile Sandell dishes out a casual masterclass in sparse precision, and Zetterberg provides high-pitched arco, bowing below the bridge. Anker underpins the passage with muted drones as Fält matches Sandell with percussive delicacy."-Dave Foxall, AJazzNoise.com
Artist Biographies:
• Show Bio for Torbjorn Zetterberg
"Torbjörn Zetterberg (born 10 May 1976) is a Swedish jazz musician (double bass) and composer, known from collaborations with Jonas Kullhammar.
Zetterberg attended Södra Latin och Fridhems Folkhögskola in Svalöv but was first recognised as bassist when he studied at Kungliga Musikhögskolan in Stockholm still very young. Here he studied bass under guidance of Jan Adefelt. Soon he joined drummer Fredrik Norén's band together with the saxophonist Jonas Kullhammar. Already at this point one could sense that he would become a prominent figure in the Swedish jazz scene. Now his name is firmly rooted in the vibrant progressive selection as the new jazz generation.
He went through a personal crisis and did not record as a bandleader for more than seven years. Zetterberg was uncomfortable with his career and in 2010 he decided to leave the urban life including his bass, and moved to a Buddhist temple. There he resided for a year and still spends half of his time there in 2016. This existential crisis led to the production of the album Och Den Stora Frågan ("And the Big Question" in Swedish) in 2014. Here he collaborated with well known musicians from his earlier career, like the Portuguese trumpeter Susana Santos Silva and drummer Jon Fält, known from albums with pianist Bobo Stenson's trio. The album is "charged with joyful urgency, shiny optimism and confident flowing energy, despite the doubts and uncertainties that accompany any creative, artistic process", the reporter of All About Jazz stated in 2014."-Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torbj%C3%B6rn_Zetterberg)

HERE'S a film that puts the recent Oscar contenders in the shade. Having scored a hit with his over-the-top message movie Precious, director Lee Daniels has found the courage to let it all hang out. The result is lurid, kinky, and sometimes absurd - but if you can get on board, there's no reason any of that should be a problem.
Based on a novel by Pete Dexter - who co-wrote the script with Daniels - the film takes place in Florida over the long, hot summer of 1969. The story is told in voiceover by Anita (Macy Gray), a black maid who spends her time looking after Jack (Zac Efron), a college dropout whose mother vanished long ago.

|Run Time
A reporter returns to his Florida hometown to investigate a case involving a death row inmate.
Full synopsis
The film is supposedly a mystery thriller, though many plot details remain murky. Jack's brother, Ward (Matthew McConaughey) is an investigative reporter on a crusade to free Hillary (John Cusack) an unlovely prisoner on death row. He's joined in this mission by another reporter, Yardley (David Oyelowo), and by Hillary's girlfriend Charlotte Bless (Nicole Kidman), a middle-aged sexpot with a thing for men in jail.
For a while these characters form a kind of gang, bound together by a range of barely repressed desires. This stretch of the film resembles a sultry daydream; menace lurks everywhere, but Daniels has other things on his mind than narrative momentum. Not since Tarantino's Death Proof has a film seemed so turned on by everything in the frame: Efron sprawled in the foreground in his white underpants, Kidman's blonde hair, trashy outfits and candy-pink lipstick, McConaughey looking lean, hangdog and ready to pounce.
Like Moonrise Kingdom - an otherwise radically different period piece - The Paperboy is shot in widescreen on 16-millimetre film, harking back to the 1960s in style as well as content. Long lenses flatten space, jamming bodies together and maximising a sense of clutter; eccentric editing patterns suggest that the camera is trying to get in as close as possible, from every angle at once.
Weird free-associative montage sequences evoke sexual fantasy run amok; superimpositions and passages of slow motion suggest that the film itself is coming unglued, melting in the heat.
For all the wilful sleaze - and occasional ghastly violence - it's clear Daniels likes his characters. Though Kidman goes to town in the star role, she avoids turning Charlotte into a pathetic nymphomaniac out of Tennessee Williams: typical of Daniels' perverse political correctness is the implication that she deserves respect, as a woman who well and truly knows what she wants.

Today, in an America filled with adulterers and baby-killers, an even worse sinner casts a shadow over them all—the atheist. Yet atheists are difficult to spot. They hide their sinister cult behind masks of smiles, science and soft, pleasant voices. Your next door neighbor might be an atheist. You just can't tell.I tell myself that this simply has to be satire. Look at the links on the side of the page. I spent the next half-hour laughing my ass off over the comments to the article. Here are a few:
Imagine if it was simple to identify atheists and their tainted works. Would it not be grand? Think how much easier it would be to protect your children's eyes, ears and souls from atheistic influences if their websites, books, movies and yes, even their very clothes, were clearly labeled with a bright scarlet "A".
What do you think?
I cannot seem to post a simple thought here without persecution raining down upon me. Why is it that atheists are so full of hate? Just what is so wrong with my suggestion for an atheist "A"? Is the color scarlet the problem? Or the font? They can be changed. I'm not inflexible.I love the names of the posters. And check out some of the other posts. They seem to be similar to Landover Baptist.
- Pastor Tobin Maker
I wear a cross on my necklace, one on my bracelet, a WWJD rubber bracelet-thing, and a ring that contains a sliver of the true cross. I make my allegiance clear. I walk the Righteous path. You know your children are safe with me. Now, what of the atheist? We can't know can we? All we want to know is that is we let our children talk to the man with the 'A' on his shirt, that he's likely to offer them meth or try to sodomize them. Is it so wrong for a parent to want to know this.
- HisWisdomReigns
Those atheists are too deceitful to wear an A on their garments - I think it would have to be tattooed on their foreheads.
- Enola Tibbets
This is a Godly idea Pastor Maker. To long has the atheist menace been allowed to spread its poison undetected in America. Just look at what has happened; price of oil up, the War of Terror faltering, bridge collapses in Minnesota, we can be sure an atheist was involved in each and ever one of these problems. Why the list possible atheists crimes have done to our society is endless. We need to know who they are and what they are up to now! We need them to were these "A"s and also were GPS tracking collars so we can get a handle on the menace the present to America.
- BJ Tabor
Personally, I think Atheists should have the letter "A" BRANDED into their foreheads. That way they can have a small taste of the burning that they will surely feel when they meet their end and arrive in HELL!
- Pasquinade's Princess
Religious zealots could do humanity the same favor by wearing large flaming sacks of feces on their heads.
- FrumiousBandersnark
Now just branding all atheists with an "A" is just the tough love they need. The shock of a third degree burn to their head will get there attention an make them wake up to the fact they have a problem. After all the first step in solving a problem is admitting you have one.
- BJ Tabor
You atheists are making me roll over in my grave! If it was up to me, you atheists would all be taken out back and whipped with a garden hose like that purple teletubby! It is eternally refreshing to read the most wondrous thoughts of Rev. Maker from up here. I would have commented sooner but we only have dial-up. God bless you true believers and keep up the good work, fight the good fight, and keep the faith as you wage the most holiest of wars against the atheists. I would like to add though that my friend Jimmy Swaggart was an adulterer so we may want to cut them some slack.

I used Retin A 0.05 from Jansen until it was taken off the market. I am now using Ret A from Medpharma UAE and also tried Acretin from Jambool Pharmacy Saudi but am experiencing no flakiness or redness whatsoever. My question is are these products genuine or am I wasting my time?

Valentino sees signs of market recovery
MILAN (Reuters Life!) - Fashion group Valentino said it expects 2009 to be a tough year in luxury retail but has seen resilience in quality labels such as Marlboro and Hugo Boss.
Chief Executive Officer Stefano Sassi told Corriere della Sera newspaper that the luxury firm has seen a recovery in trade since the middle of April.
"In the first quarter we lost a bit in terms of turnover and profitability, but from the middle of April, we are seeing a recovery," he said in an interview published in the newspaper's CorriereEconomia business section on Monday.
This year "will be more difficult" than 2008, he added. The design house, which includes Valentino and Hugo Boss labels as well as the license for Marlboro clothing, will focus on controlling costs.
"This crisis has mostly hit luxury, while a line like Marlboro for example is holding at last year's levels and even Hugo Boss is standing its ground," Sassi said.
"But April and May are giving very encouraging signals for Valentino as well," he added.
Valentino Fashion Group, which is controlled by private equity group Permira, increased turnover 3 percent in 2008 to 2.2 billion euros ($3.08 billion) while core profit slipped to 320.4 million euros from 330.3 million euros.
Valentino's founder, Valentino Garavani, retired in January 2008 after heading the house for nearly half a century and making its trademark red evening gowns regulars on the red carpets at the Oscars, Cannes film festival and elsewhere.
His successor, Alessandra Facchinetti, lasted less than a year before leaving "embittered." She was replaced by in-house team Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli. Continued...

NBC host Matt Lauer confronts President Bush on a fundamental apparent inconsistency in his interrogation policy: If it's legal, why are we doing it in secret CIA prisons abroad? Cornered, Bush doesn't answer straight. Watch the fireworks.
Transcript via Crooks and Liars:
Matt Lauer: I don?t want to let this ?within the law issue? slip though. I mean, if, in fact, there was water boarding used with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and for the viewers, that?s basically when you strap someone to a board and you make them feel as if they?re going to drown by putting them underwater, if that was legal and within the law, why couldn?t you do it at Guantanamo? Why did you have to go to a secret location around the world?
President Bush: I?m not going to talk about techniques. And, I?m not going explain to the enemy what we?re doing. All I?m telling you is that you?ve asked me whether or not we?re doing things to protect the American people, and I want the American people to know we are doing so.

I had the new Disport done to my forehead, Evolence in my nasal labial folds and Restylane in my lips. It has only been 4 days. I still have bruising around my mouth. I think I will be happy with the results.
I don't feel the Evolence was worth the price tag as I don't see much of a difference and part of it appears to have floated up and is now under my eye-right on the bone.

Tall-ship «Sedov»
The Sedov, originally named the Magdalene Vinnen II, was launched in Kiel in 1921 at the Friedrich Krupp Germaniawerft at Kiel, Germany, for the shipping company F. A. Vinnen & Co. of Bremen, one of the largest German shipping companies at the beginning of the 20th century. The shipping company initially objected to have an engine installed in the ship, but the ship yard successfully argued for an engine, making the ship the first sailing ship with auxiliary engine designed to modern principles.
The Magdalene Vinnen II was at the time the world's largest auxiliary barque and exclusively used as a cargo ship with a crew that was partially made up of cadets. She sailed on her maiden voyage on September 1, 1921. Her voyage took her from Bremen via Cardiff, where she took on coal, to Buenos Aires. Despite bad weather, the journey from England to Argentina with holds full of coal took just 30days. The Magdale Vinnen II carried all sorts of cargo: apart from coal, she took timber from Finland, wheat from Australia, pyrite from Italy and unit load from Belgium. The four-masted barque made two voyages around Cape Horn to Chile. Until her last voyage under the Vinnen flag in 1936, the ship sailed to Argentina, South Africa, Australia, Reunion and the Seychelles.
Kommodore Johnsen
On August 9, 1936, the Magdalene Vinnen II was sold to Norddeutscher Lloyd, Bremen and renamed the Kommodore Johnsen. The new owner modified her to a cargo-carrying training ship. More accommodation was provided, as the ship, apart from her permanent crew, was to have a complement of 50 to 60 trainee officers on each journey. Sedov
She came under Russian state ownership after the surrender of Germany - on December 20, 1945, the British handed over the ship to the Soviet Union as war reparation. In the Soviet Union, she was converted into a sail training vessel of the Soviet Navy. Renamed the Sedov after the Arctic explorer Georgy Sedov who died during his expedition in the Arctic in 1914, she was used as a training ship of the Navy from 1952 to 1957. She made several friendly visits to South America and Africa during this period. From 1957 to 1966 she was used as an oceanographic research ship in the North Atlantic. During these voyages, the Russian Navy also used her for training young cadets. In 1966 she was transferred to the reserve in Kronstadt, formally under the civil ownership of the Ministry of Fisheries. In the 1970s, she was only infrequently used as a training ship, sailing in the Gulf of Finland.
In 1981, the Sedov reappeared after renovation with some new features added, such as a glass-domed banquet hall with a stage and a movie theatre. She was now based at the Baltic Division of Training Ships in Riga. She embarked cadets from navigation schools of Kaliningrad and Murmansk. After the declaration of independence of Latvia in 1991, she left Riga for Murmansk, and was transferred to the Murmansk naval school with the city of Murmansk ensuring her management and maintenance.
In 1991, the barque was handed over to Murmansk State Technical University and new generations of future navigating officers, ship engineers, radio operators had their training on its board. The "Sedov" was entered into the "Guinness Book of Records" as the biggest sailing tall ship.

I'd rather walk than trade my subaru for a honda. I'll live without the sound. Just wanted to know how to make it work. Sounds like a dyno tune is my only option.
Like the guys said, sticking with a BPV is a must. I did a lot of research on forums and talked with multiple tunes shops before buying mine, and decided to go with Forge's BPV to accompany my stage 2 setup. Comes in chrome or black and sounds sick even only being a BPV. So with that, your DP, and your AP you'll be good to go. I also got a CAI before getting tuned. It's not something you have to have with stage 2 but it def brings your engine bay to life!! I can clearly hear turbo spool and my intake hard at work with every gear. You could also do the "silencer delete" which will also give you some good sound. Hope this helped. But even if your AP won't accompany an intake properly, like mentioned the 3rd gens do take intakes pretty well without setting off CEL's. my friend has a 2012 with nothing but an intake on it and it still has no CEL's and he's not tuned in any way. This is not recommended by me though as it doesn't mean your car isn't running rich non the less. Pro dyno tune will fix all issues though...just a though over an AP.

TORONTO — A trio of what opposition parties are calling "sexist" social media posts by Liberal candidates forced Premier Kathleen Wynne to shift from touting her own policies to defending her party's vetting process on Tuesday.
Questions about the posts — all of which were pointed out to the media by either the Tories or the NDP — dominated the Liberal leader's media availability after she spoke to a business audience in Toronto.
Wynne, who only knew of two "inappropriate" posts, said she would do all she could to ensure her party put up candidates worthy of public office.
"As the first female premier I've spent my life dealing with, from time to time, inappropriateness in society," Wynne said.
"I will do everything in my power to make sure that all of our candidates and all of our campaigners are respectful of each other and of everyone in our society."
The Progressive Conservatives were the first to dig up a questionable Facebook post by a Liberal candidate over the weekend.
The January post by Ottawa-area candidate Jack Uppal joked about the differences between men and women and included lines about women being unable to find solutions to problems.
Wynne said on Sunday that she had accepted Uppal's apology and that he had taken the remarks down.
The premier had a similar response Monday to questions about a post by Niagara West-Glanbrook candidate David Mossey, which was once more highlighted by the Tories.
The post was from March last year and showed two photographs of women's bikini-clad behinds with the words "no squats" and "squats" above them, in reference to the exercise move.
Wynne said Mossey has acknowledged that it was an inappropriate picture, taken down the post and apologized.
The premier was forced to confront the issue yet again on Tuesday when she was questioned about a Twitter post by London-area candidate Nick Steinburg — this time pointed out by the NDP — in which he made a reference to "mackin" or suggestively flirting with ladies.
While Wynne said she hadn't seen the post, she promised that "corrective action" will be taken against any comments that deserve it.
"If there are inappropriate comments they need to be dealt with no matter what party the person is from," Wynne said.
"I think it's a bit of a cautionary note for everyone, not just for political candidates…that what you say, what you put out in the social media universe hangs out there for a very long time and you need to make sure that you're as respectful to people on social media as you would be face to face."
The NDP suggested that Steinburg's tweet was "making light of sexually harassing ladies" and showed that the Liberals were "lowering their standards."
Meanwhile, the Liberal party said Steinburg's tweet had nothing to do with sexual harassment.
"The NDP wants to change the channel from the fact that they rejected our progressive budget without having any plan of their own," said Liberal campaign spokeswoman Rebecca MacKenzie.
"The PCs want to change the channel too — from all the criticism over their (job) cuts."
All three candidates are still running for office amid calls from the opposition parties for Wynne to fire them.

ferguson shamamian & rattner architects, new york
Sprawling Mediterranean-style mansions are the bedrock of Palm Beach architecture. Their cloistered courtyards, tall, dense hedges, and stone loggias serve a deeply practical purpose--to shield the interiors from the harsh sun. These clients, however, wanted a slightly different take on the grand villa with its flamboyant tropical theme, something "more understated and organized," says Mark Ferguson, AIA.
The house, overlooking Lake Worth, consists of five main spaces on a central axis that move from the street down to the water. It flows from an oval entrance garden formed by an 8-foot-tall hedge to a grassy pool terrace at the rear. Inside, a stone courtyard at the front of the house gives way to a double-height groin-vaulted living room with dark oak wainscoting. Beyond, a loggia faces the swimming pool. And a series of terraced formal gardens extend from the pool area to the water's edge.
Our judges noted the terrific site plan and praised the firm for "a classic Florida style that was beautifully done."

text: AUSTIN, Texas, June 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Don't let another year go by without giving dad his due! RetailMeNot ( www.retailmenot.com), the largest digital offers destination in the United States, conducted a survey with The Omnibus Company ( www.omnibus.com) that finds dads may continue to get the short end of the stick this year, as more people buy Mother's Day gifts for mom than Father's Day gifts for dad (86%* vs. 77%). This gift buying behavior is consistent with findings from the 2013 Father's Day Shoppers Trend Report, which revealed more than half (58%) of dads feel they spend more money on their partners for Mother's Day than their significant others typically spend on them for Father's Day.Are we phoning it in for our fathers? According to the 2014 Father's Day edition of the RetailMeNot Shoppers Trend Report, not only do more people buy gifts for mom on her big day, but they also put more effort into making her gifts special. In fact, 20% of people admit they are more creative with gifts for their mom on Mother's Day than their dad on Father's Day. To pour salt on the wound for dear old dad, more than 11% of people surveyed admit they have forgotten to wish their dad a Happy Father's Day in the past. Additionally, 20% of respondents think it's acceptable to wish dad a Happy Father's Day via text or email. One in 10 survey respondents feel that if they see their dad on Father's Day, they don't need to get him a gift; only 6%* feel the same way about Mother's Day. Is perception reality? Year after year, dads seem to get less attention than moms on their respective holidays. Nearly half (48%) of those surveyed believe people spend more on moms for Mother's Day than on dads for Father's Day. According to the survey, however, the average spend on both parents isn't too far apart: Survey respondents say they spend $61 on Father's Day gifts and $68 on Mother's Day gifts. According to the survey, on average, shoppers buy their dad a Father's Day gift two weeks in advance of the holiday.** Of those who buy gifts, more than 6 in 10 (63%) make these purchases in-store – far fewer buy gifts online (21%) or make them (14%). Nearly 2 in 10 (17%) consumers look for coupons, discounts or sale-priced items when purchasing a gift for their dad on Father's Day. Dad's most-desired gifts According to the survey, the items at the top of dads' Father's Day wish lists this year are gift cards (17%) and quality time spent with family (17%). Last year, quality time with family beat out gift cards for the top spot (26% quality time vs. 20% gift cards).*** Far fewer dads are hoping to receive home improvement products (3%), video game systems or games (3%) or sports lessons (1%) this year.

Dillon wins Trucks Series race at Chicagoland
JOLIET, Ill. (AP) – Austin Dillon moved closer to the Trucks Series points lead by winning at Chicagoland Speedway on Friday night.
It was the fourth victory of Dillon's career, second of this season. But the field included Sprint Cup stars Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch, and beating them made it a career highlight.
"It's huge, it's the biggest win of my career," Dillon said. "I've wanted to beat those guys and everybody asks 'How do you feel about racing against Cup drivers?' Every time they ask me the question, I say 'I love it' because that proves we can go out there and run with them.
RESULTS: Fast Five 225
STANDINGS: Camping World Truck Series leaders
"It proves we can get to the next level. I'm glad when they come into the series, they are very tough to beat, they are supposed to be, and when you beat them it makes it that much better."
The win helped Dillon slice nine points off of James Buescher's lead in the standings. He now trails Buescher, who finished 11th, by three with seven races left in the season.
"We've been thinking championship from the beginning of the year. That's what we set out to do," Dillon said. "I feel like we've had a championship season, just not been able to finish at the end of races. We've been the fastest truck pretty much all year and tonight we were able to finish it."
Harvick dominated by leading a race-high 99 of the 150 laps, but everybody was forced to make one last pit stop under the green flag.
A vibration in his Chevrolet forced Harvick to take four tires, and pushed him further back in the field than he expected when he got back on the track.
"That definitely dictated the four-tire call," said Harvick, who also got held up racing Kyle Busch for position as they chased down Dillon.
"Look, he's trying to race me hard and make a mistake and did what he had to do to try to make that happen. That's just part of it, and that's exactly what Austin needed to get enough distance and lapped cars between us. You just race as hard as you can and we came up a little short."

Harvick wound up second as Dillon snapped the streak of four consecutive wins by Kevin Harvick Inc.-owned trucks. Harvick and Ron Hornaday Jr. had combined to win the last four races, and Harvick said last week that KHI would close its program at the end of the season.
But he wasn't lamenting the loss to Dillon, the grandson of Richard Childress, Harvick's car owner in the Sprint Cup Series. Childress is also taking over KHI's Nationwide cars next season.
"As a driver you want to win the race, especially with a truck like that, but nine times out of 10 you don't win 'em on days like that," Harvick said. "But in the end, we kept it all in the family."
Dillon and Busch pitted at about the same time, and both took two tires. But Dillon said he'd been watching Busch pit lately and used what he'd learned to get a jump on him.
"I got to watching … and kind of judged off of where I needed to be," Dillon said. "He was way wide when he entered pit road and I kind of cut that distance off by getting on pit road earlier."
KHI driver Nelson Piquet Jr. was third, and said he's actively searching for a new job now that KHI is closing.
"I'm still searching for a truck team," he said. "It's not easy to find a truck team at the level of KHI. If I knew which one it was, I would have picked it a long time ago. So we're trying to see what our options are."
Parker Kligerman was fourth, followed by Kyle Busch, Johnny Sauter and Matt Crafton.
The top 10 was rounded out by Miguel Paludo, Cole Whitt and Ron Hornaday Jr.

Alicia Keys campaigns for HIV education
Published: Thursday, April 18, 2013 at 9:20 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 18, 2013 at 9:20 p.m.
Alicia Keys says she wants to spark a global conversation about HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
The Grammy Award-winning singer says that when she traveled to Africa and India she felt connected to women with the virus because "they looked like they could be my sister, or they could be my aunt, or they could be my cousin." Keys is working with the Kaiser Family Foundation for "Empowered," a campaign launched last month to educate women about HIV and provide grants to community-based projects that will do that.
According to Kaiser, one in four of the 1.1 million people living with HIV in the United States are women. Women of color account for about two-thirds of new HIV infections among women.
The campaign includes outreach through public service ads, social media and community programs. It encourages women to learn about HIV and AIDS, talk with family and friends, protect themselves and loved ones, get tested, prevent spreading the disease and stay on treatment.
Rick Ross
A day after Reebok ended its relationship with Rick Ross, the rapper acknowledged that his lyrics on Rocko's song "U.O.E.N.O." were "offensive."
In a statement Friday, Ross said being a musician is "a great responsibility" and that his choice of words in the song "does not reflect my true heart."
In the song, Ross raps about giving a woman the drug MDMA, known as Molly, and having his way with her.
"Put Molly all up in her champagne, she ain't even know it, I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it," he raps on the track released in January. It gained traction in recent weeks after women's groups and rape victims issued petitions.
"Before I am an artist, I am a father, a son, and a brother to some of the most cherished women in the world. So for me to suggest in any way that harm and violation be brought to a woman is one of my biggest mistakes and regrets," his statement said.
Last Thursday, Reebok said it had terminated its contract with Ross because the rapper wasn't living "up to the values of our brand." Ross has appeared in a commercial for the Reebok Classic sneakers.
"We are very disappointed he has yet to display an understanding of the seriousness of this issue or an appropriate level of remorse," the statement said.
The Miami-based rapper first addressed the song three weeks ago in a radio interview, saying "there was a misunderstanding with the lyric." A week after that, he tweeted an apology. It was the same day the women's group UltraViolet protested outside one of Reebok's stores in Manhattan.
In his official apology, Ross also says men who listen to his music should "know that using a substance to rob a woman of her right to make a choice is not only a crime, it's wrong."
Apollo Hall of Fame
R&B star Chaka Khan will be inducted into the Apollo Theater's hall of fame.
The theater announced last Thursday that Patti LaBelle and Mary J. Blige will perform in Khan's honor at its June 10 New York gala.
The annual event raises funds for the Apollo's education and community outreach programs.
Khan and Blige received a Grammy Award together in 2008 for "Disrespectful."
Singer-songwriter Lionel Richie and the late Etta James were inducted last year into the Apollo Legends Hall of Fame.
Other previous inductees include LaBelle, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson and Aretha Franklin, to name just a few.
Sarah Jessica Parker will present this year's corporate award to Time Warner Inc.
'Babies' Mamas'
Oxygen Media has pulled the plug on "All My Babies' Mamas," a reality special the network was developing about a musician who has fathered 11 children with 10 different mothers.
The network offered no reason for curtailing the project. In a statement, Oxygen said that, "as part of our development process, we have reviewed casting and decided not to move forward with the special."
The one-hour program would have featured Atlanta rap artist Shawty Lo, his children and their mothers. It was expected to air later this year on Oxygen, an NBCUniversal cable network owned by Comcast.
"All My Babies' Mamas" got a hostile public reception after Oxygen announced it late last year. At least one petition calling for Oxygen to shut it down has collected more than 37,000 signatures.
The Parents Television Council called the program's concept "grotesquely irresponsible and exploitive" and pledged to contact advertisers of the show if it reached the air.
Previously, Oxygen denied charges that the show was meant to be "a stereotypical representation of everyday life for any one demographic or cross section of society," but rather would reveal "the complicated lives of one man, his children's mamas and their army of children."

Resolution 15
The Life and Witness of the Christian Community - Marriage and Sex
Where there is clearly felt moral obligation to limit or avoid parenthood, the method must be decided on Christian principles. The primary and obvious method is complete abstinence from intercourse (as far as may be necessary) in a life of discipline and self-control lived in the power of the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless in those cases where there is such a clearly felt moral obligation to limit or avoid parenthood, and where there is a morally sound reason for avoiding complete abstinence, the Conference agrees that other methods may be used, provided that this is done in the light of the same Christian principles. The Conference records its strong condemnation of the use of any methods of conception control from motives of selfishness, luxury, or mere convenience.
56. Since, therefore, openly departing from the uninterrupted Christian tradition some recently have judged it possible solemnly to declare another doctrine regarding this question, the Catholic Church, to whom God has entrusted the defense of the integrity and purity of morals, standing erect in the midst of the moral ruin which surrounds her, in order that she may preserve the chastity of the nuptial union from being defiled by this foul stain, raises her voice in token of her divine ambassadorship and through Our mouth proclaims anew: any use whatsoever of matrimony exercised in such a way that the act is deliberately frustrated in its natural power to generate life is an offense against the law of God and of nature, and those who indulge in such are branded with the guilt of a grave sin.

Antioxidant Vitamin and Mineral Supplement
Ocuvite Tablets with Lutein... Plus more Vitamin C and E!

Is Ocuvite right for you? For a larger dose of lutein to increase the amount of lutein in the eye Bausch & Lomb also offers Ocuvite Lutein capsules with 6 mg of lutein. If you're looking for even greater amounts of vitamins C and E, 2 mg of lutein, other essential nutrients, plus all the benefits of Ocuvite, choose Ocuvite Extra tablets.
May be used with other nutritional supplements following consulation with your doctor or pharmacist.

Compared to the Butterfly Touch's slightly underpowered dual-core 1.2GHz Intel Celeron SU2300, the Acer's dual-core 1.3GHz Pentium SU4100 offers noticeably better performance across the board. However, the PB machine performs well enough for most common tasks and applications, and we dislike the compromises in memory and hard drive space Acer has had to make to accommodate the faster processor.
Its faster CPU doesn't help the 1825PTZ much in gaming either, as Intel's integrated graphics only managed a pitiful 12.2fps in TrackMania Nations Forever – in other words, a 3D gaming laptop this is not.
However, its CULV CPU combines with the frugal graphics to give this laptop identically impressive seven and a half hour battery life to its sibling – hardly surprising considering it sports the same 5,600mAh/63Watt-Hour battery. You'd have to be very demanding for the 1825PTZ not to last a whole day on a full-charge, which is a great feature to have from a machine you'll want to carry around with you on a regular basis.
Obviously, the 1825PTZ's biggest competitor is Acer subsidiary Packard Bell's Butterfly Touch, since as already mentioned the machines differ only in a few aesthetic touches and internal specifications. Unfortunately, the Butterfly Touch has gone up in price since we reviewed it, but either way the 1825PTZ is still at least £50 more expensive.
Were all else the same, its faster processor would be worth this premium, but regrettably Acer has also cut back on the RAM and hard drive space. Considering the Butterfly Touch's CPU can handle everyday applications and tasks just fine, and with the additional benefits of its softer palm rests and the pre-installed copy of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8, it wins the shootout hands-down.
On its own merits, the Acer Aspire 1825PTZ is a great little convertible tablet laptop and not bad value. However, the almost identical Packard Bell EasyNote Butterfly Touch simply offers more for the money, so unless a faster CPU is worth more to you than additional RAM and hard drive space, it's the better option.
Ahh it's my laptop! You got hold of one then :)
Not that it matters but how would the scores be affected if it had the 4GB RAM and 320GB HDD + the DVD/RW and a wireless mouse for under £600?? ;-)
So, you've compared the SU2300 to the SU4100 and it's good to know. But how faster is the SU2300 than Atom N450? Is it noticeable?
Thanks in advance.
Do you use it in tablet form or is that something that is pretty cool in the beginning but is just not that useful?
Thanks for your time!
I use it in tablet form pretty much all of the time when I get the chance. As it's pretty much my pc to use when I get home late at night and want to surf the net/send a few emails etc before I go bed rather than turning on my big quad core machine. It's fantastic to be honest seeing as it's a capacitive screen it's really responsive to the fingers so I just run it in tablet mode hold it like a book or prop it up on my lap and just wisk my finger across as I need to browse about. It really is that and a bag of chips. Only complaint is sometimes I need to be very specific with the keyboard as if you use it in a password field it purposely doesn't highlight the keys you just pressed and as the screen is so sensitive you can end up double pressing some keys and getting the password wrong! Other than that it's pretty damn slick you won't want to use the hardware keyboard if you can :)
Thanks for your feedback!
@Nicholas Pires:
Hmmm, 8/10 Recommended.
It's more than noticeable, but it depends on your usage. If you just use word processing and browse the web, and watch SD video, the Atom is fine. Anything more intensive like Photoshop effects or HD video though and you'll be glad of the higher-end CPUs.
As Nicholas said, it's genuinely useful in tablet form for many things. Browsing the web and watching videos/photos on the couch is so much easier :)
I was slightly worried about purchasing this laptop having read a number of reviews saying that it would not be able to handle games on even the lowest settings (not that I planned to play many on an 11.6" screen). But I'm happy to say that it can play Battlefield 2142 and Medieval 2 Total war (both quite "heavy" games) on moderate to low settings with no difficulty! So while I agree it definitely makes web browsing more entertaining, thats certainly not all it can do! :)
I'm looking at using this as a paper-replacement tablet, how viable is that? I'd rather have a more powerful CPU than the RAM and HDD in the Packard Bell as I can easily upgrade the RAM, and plan on replacing the HDD with an SSD. Is this the one to go for, or are there other tablets I should be looking at?
@Robert 12:
Apologies about the late reply, but going by the motto 'better late than never', it would probably not be the best option as a "paper-replacement tablet" because you can't write or draw on it (i.e. it doesn't have a digitizer).
The http://www.trustedreviews.c... would probably be more suitable, though there are quite a few interesting alternatives coming out atm. If you haven't taken the plunge already, it's worth holding out just a little longer.

Is it possible to get my forum to use the header/footer from my WordPress theme?
It's fairly simple Kev. I've done it at http://www.wpmods.com/forums/
Best thing to do would be to view source for your wordpress website home page and then copy of the necessary code to your page, container, header and navigation templates. Classes that are used can be copied over to extra.css
Sweet...I'll give that a shot. Thank you SystemO!
My header includes custom WordPress menus (two of them) see: http://www.webmaxed.com
The top menu, which is a widget (aMember), is especially important because its how members get to their account page (aMember) and logout. Any way to include these?
I'm not sure of that. The buttons would be easy to add but not the logged in information.
Separate names with a comma.

It's NOT comedogenic? I've been reading some mixed info on coconut oil. Some say that it is comedogenic and will clog pores. However, there was mention that the CO needs to be unrefined and you won't have any issues. Now I'm TOTALLY confused

I thought I'd look into Tinychat.com because we've had several requests at the NMC for students/lecturers who need to hold a video interview with a hiring company/college/university that is not within driving distance.
I've suggested using MSN Messenger, AIM or even Skype. It seemed some requestors did not feel comfortable installing new software onto their systems. I had heard of Tinychat and suggested it once. Let's get testing.
You can use Twitter or Facebook account to login after creating a video chatroom.
If you prefer not to have Tiny Chat access your information on Twitter/Facebook, you can create a free account on the site (you'll see later this isn't completely true).
Once you've created an account, the site presents you with other Tinychat users that you can "follow", or you can skip that step.
On to the "profile" creation: You can change your display name to something other than your userid. Add a brief biography, description w/links, pictures and more. Add a picture to your profile, set your location (this is not required), provide a URL to your website. They have "gender" as non-optional radio button I find rather silly. I don't think it should be there at all.
It will force you to upload a picture. How about my cat?
Set Design, Privacy settings, but now looks like it's FORCING me to "Link with Twitter or Facebook".
The Directory shows images/stills of current users. Most of them appear to be bored teenagers. We'll stay away from that.
Moderator controls in
clude: Play Youtube video, Show your desktop, share a whiteboard, share a group document.
Show my desktop takes a series of what seemed like still images ~ it ran a bit slow as I was using my small Mac laptop (only because it has a built-in camera).
The share a whiteboard is just that ~ it opens a new window with rudimentary tools, type/text tool, drawing tools, color selection, line selection.
Share a group document allows several people to type at once. Upload a text file, html, word or rtf and work on that together. Export options are: html, plain text, bookmark file, Word, PDF and OpenDocument.
So why not use the University approved iLinc? Well, if the user needs it for a personal interview, they can't provide a departmental account number. Even though there are no fees for iLinc I doubt any graduate student (or staff / faculty member) would be comfortable asking for one for personal use.

Weekend recap: my series on William Lane Craig is finished!

On Dawkins' refusal to debate Craig
Craig is famous for his debates with atheists, but one atheist who has repeatedly refused to debate Craig is Richard Dawkins. Dawkins initially refused because he had no idea who Craig was, and later, when he learned more about Craig, because of Craig's defense of genocide (which I discussed while discussing Craig's moral argument).

Why is Craig so dishonest?
Now that I've thoroughly documented Craig's dishonesty, I want to say a bit about why Craig is so dishonest. I've written before about what Craig really thinks of reason, and given his views, it isn't surprising that he doesn't really care whether his arguments are any good. But there are a couple telling comment he's made that [Read More…]
Jesus' resurrection: was Paul hallucinating?
I really want to be done with my post series on William Lane Craig, but after putting up yesterday's post, I realized I really need to say more about the possibility that Paul and other people who claimed to have seen Jesus after his death were hallucinating (or otherwise deluded). [Read more…]
Craig's case for the resurrection of Jesus
The Craig's last major argument for the existence of God is his claim that the resurrection of Jesus can be shown to have happened using standard historical methods. Now, I've previously written that the vast majority of non-Christians (as well as many liberal Christians) don't think the gospels, the Bible's accounts of Jesus' life, are historically [Read More…]
William Lane Craig's moral argument
Now for Craig's moral argument (or "axiological argument"), which I've sometimes thought is Craig's worst argument (though picking a single worst argument from Craig is hard). Here's the basic argument: [Read more…]
The fine-tuning argument (as told by William Lane Craig)
The next argument Craig presents in Reasonable Faith (after his versions of the cosmological argument) is the fine-tuning argument, which is a version of the argument from design or teleological argument. I've previously discussed problems with other versions of this argument here and here, those posts will be useful background to this one. Craig's version is a [Read More…]

Well, it seems I was following the wrong ship. My car is actually on a KLine ship, Athens Highway, with an estimated arrival of December 20 (dealer says it should be Dec 19). According to them, about 2-3 days until they get the car from that point forward. I've seen other people state their car cleared customs electronically before the ship even arrived, so I'm being optimistic I can pick it up before Christmas. After all, I'm sure the dealer knows pretty well where their stock is and how soon it gets to them.

Bas Makes Major Label Debut With "Last Winter" Collection On J. Cole's Dreamville Label For Interscope
09 Apr, 2014, 04:00 ET from Interscope Records
SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Bas, the first artist signed to Dreamville, announced today the upcoming release of Last Winter, the rapper's first collection of recordings for the Interscope Records label headed by multiplatinum artist J. Cole and business partner Ibrahim Hamad. Last Winter will be available digitally beginning April 29. The project will also physically be available exclusively at Best Buy.
Featured on one track a piece are the Grammy-nominated Cole, Irvin Washington, KQuick, and the Grammy-nominated Mack Wilds. Bas (aka Abbas Hamad) co-wrote each of the 12 new songs as well as the previously released bonus track "Lit," which also features Cole and KQuick. Recorded in Brooklyn, NY, selections on Last Winter were produced by Ron Gilmore, Ogee Handz, Cedric Brown, Jay Kurzweil, and GP808 & Hottrak.
Bas calls Last Winter a conceptual project about hoping to break away from tough times. "Ced Brown and I would be recording in my basement and it's cold and we're broke. When we would make a hot record, we would look at each other and say 'last winter,' like 'this is our last winter. We are not going to be living like this anymore. We're going to elevate our situation.' It became a self-fulfilling prophecy."
Born in Paris to Sudanese parents, Bas moved to Queens, NY at the age of eight and has been making music since 2010 under the watch of mentor and close friend Cole. His "Quarter Water Raised Me Vol. II" in 2013 was named one of the Top 20 mixtapes of the year by Source magazine. Bas was then featured on "New York Times" with 50 Cent on Born Sinner and appeared with Cole on "Hell's Kitchen" for DJ Khaled's Suffering from Success. He has performed on Cole's Dollar and A Dream Tour, opened for Cole and Wale on the American leg of the What Dreams May Come Tour, and traveled as Cole's international supporting act. When Dreamville, one of hip-hop's most innovative and creative collectives, formed an exclusive label with Interscope Records earlier this year, Bas was announced as the company's first signing.
Last Winter Tracklisting:
New World Order (N.W.O.)
Mook in New Mexico

Chiefs entertain WHL's top team
Tue., Feb. 11, 2014, 7:50 p.m.
The Kelowna Rockets arrive in Spokane Wednesday night with one big goal all but unattainable but another well within reach.
For much of the Western Hockey League season, Kelowna was on pace to tie or break the Victoria Cougars' 1980-81 record for most wins (60) in a season.
But a 4-2-0-2 stretch in their last eight games means the Rockets (44-8-0-4) would have to win their final 16 games to match Victoria's mark.
What Kelowna can still achieve is the top overall record in the league and home-ice advantage throughout the playoffs. The Rockets have 92 points, nine more than Western Conference rival Portland, which is on a 14-0-0-1 streak, and 11 more than Eastern Conference-leading Edmonton, which has won 11 straight.
Edmonton defeated Kelowna 3-2 in a shootout on Friday. The following night, Victoria (80 points) beat Kelowna 6-4.
"We're going through a tough time right now, myself included, and it just didn't end the way we wanted it to," Rockets goalie Jordon Cooke told Larry Fisher of the Okanagan Sunday after the Victoria loss.
Spokane (32-19-3-2) is 2-0 against Kelowna this season, winning 6-5 on a shootout Jan. 29 at Kelowna and 6-3 in Spokane on Oct. 8.
Time to heat up
The seventh-place Regina Pats (28-22-3-2, 61 points) are among a group of teams attempting to hold off ninth-place Prince Albert (53 points) in the Eastern Conference playoff chase.
But the Pats are 9-9-1 during the second half of the season, with just three wins over teams with winning records.
"I would liken it to a car in Saskatchewan," Pats coach Malcolm Cameron told Greg Harder of the Regina Leader-Post. "Once you shut the motor off, it takes a long time to warm up. You have to keep it running."
Regina has benefitted from a 7-0 record against Saskatoon. The Pats battered Saskatoon goalie Troy Trombley with 62 shots during last Saturday's 7-3 win.
Another thing that should help Regina: Prince Albert begins a grueling five-game swing through the U.S. Division next Wednesday at Spokane.
Around the league
The Red Deer Rebels followed up a five-game winning streak with a six-game losing streak. The Rebels were swept during a four-game tour of the B.C. Division that ended Saturday. … The biggest crowd of the WHL season saw visiting Victoria beat the Vancouver Giants 3-2 on Monday on Travis Brown's power-play goal with 2:47 left. Vancouver's annual school-kids flash mob drew 11,621 to Pacific Coliseum. The Royals (38-16-4) are on an 8-0-2 run. Western Conference sixth-place Vancouver is 4-4-1-0 against third-place Victoria this season and could meet the Royals in the first round of the playoffs. … Swift Current (64 points) took over first place in the East Division with a 3-0 home win over Brandon (62) on Sunday night. Brandon suffered its first shutout of the season. … Saskatoon has a league-high six regulars out with injuries. … The Lethbridge Hurricanes terminated assistant coach Brad Lukowich "with cause" on Saturday. Lukowich walked out on the team Jan. 29 after a home game against Prince Albert. … Seattle's Taran Kozun was named Canadian Hockey League Goaltender of the Week after posting consecutive shutouts against Spokane. Kozun also won the award three weeks ago. … Kootenay's Sam Reinhart was named CHL Player of the Week after recording three goals and eight assists in three games.

Basis for Awards
Most funding is awarded on the basis of financial need. In fact, federal regulations require that any assistance provided from federal funds be contingent upon a careful determination of the student's financial need. (Examples of funding with this requirement at UTMB include such sources as the Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Direct Loans, Federal PELL Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, and the Federal Work-Study Grant Program. Completing the FAFSA need analysis establishes a reasonable estimate of the ability of the applicant and of the applicant's family to contribute to their educational expenses. Students are expected to defray part of their expenses by contributing their savings or summer earnings, or both. Parents are expected to contribute toward the cost of education, unless it can be established clearly that the applicant is totally independent of the family or unless the need analysis determines that the applicant's family is unable to provide financial support. The actual amount of contribution expected from parents is determined by such circumstances as the family's income, total assets and number of dependents. Financial Need may be defined as the difference between the cost of attending UTMB and the amount of the contribution by the student and the student's family.
Award Letter
Once your Financial Aid Application materials have been processed, and your funding sources have been determined, you will be notified, via email, to logon into mySTAR to review your financial aid awards.
Accepting Aid
Aid must be accepted before any funds can be disbursed. The disbursement date on your financial aid award letter is the date Enrollment Services begins the disbursement process. After your tuition and fees are paid, funds are issued to you for the amount of financial aid that exceeds your charges.
Rejecting Aid
If you reject all or part of the aid offered to you, your award letter will be revised. You will once again be notified, via email, to review and either accept or reject the aid offered to you.
Revised Award Letter
If you receive additional funding or otherwise have a change made to your financial aid award, you will receive email notification to review and accept the changes. You will have to accept or reject your revised financial aid before any additional funding will be able to be disbursed.
Funding Priorities
Early applicants who have submitted a complete packet are given priority in awarding the Institutional Grants. Campus-Based programs are based on financial need, this approach helps ensure assistance to students who would be unable to attend for lack of financial resources. Students who are considered ineligible for financial aid on the basis of financial need may still apply for the following programs:
How Students Are Funded - Undergraduate and Graduate students are funded for three terms during the school year: Fall, Spring, and Summer. Medical Students are funded for two terms Fall and Spring. Fall disbursements are initiated 10 days before classes begin. Spring disbursements are initiated in January when the University reopens after winter break. Summer disbursements are initiated 10 days before classes begin. After eligibility is determined, students are funded in the following order:

Massstone was extremely professional. Their work was beautiful and their prices were great. I would (and have) highly recommend them to anyone!
Arlington, MA
I couldn't be any more pleased than I am with the retaining wall that Renato and his crew created in my backyard. His crew were exceptionally polite and hard working. Renato started the job at the given time minus a day or two due to rain.The transformation is unbelievable. More importantly I had a very minor issue which Renato's crew returned and corrected.Also Renato's prices are very fair and reasonable. I got an exceptional wall for a very fair price. He also completed a stone wall in the front of my house that was incomplete. He matched the stones perfectly to the existing wall.I recommend Renato and his crew for any masonary work.

Today is all about cleaning my house. Well, that's not exactly true. Today is about cleaning my bedroom. You know how people are coming over, so you quick pick up a bunch of stuff and throw it in the corner of your room so it's out of the way? It's not just me, right? Anyway, that pile of stuff is about to take over the world. See, the problem is, once I put something in the corner of my room it no longer is in my way, and therefore does not exist for me. At least not until I need something from it. Which is now. I own plastic tablecloths...they've gotta be in there somewhere.

Sistema holds back IPO,may look at it after new telecom policy
Volatile market conditions and uncertain regulatory framework in the telecom sector has forced new telecom operator Sistema-Shyam to postpone its proposal to enter the capital market through an IPO, but would consider the plan after the new telecom policy is announced.
New Delhi: Volatile market conditions and uncertain regulatory framework in the telecom sector has forced new telecom operator Sistema-Shyam to postpone its proposal to enter the capital market through an IPO, but would consider the plan after the new telecom policy is announced.
"Given the present regulatory environment and unproductive market conditions, especially in the telecom sector, known to everyone, an IPO might not result in good valuations... One is looking forward to introduction of the new telecom policy which should in turn enable liberal merger and acquisition norms," Sistema-Shyam Teleservices (SSTL) President and CEO Vsevolod Rozanov said.
Such policy issues would go a long way in consolidation of the sector and thereby improve the operating environment for the entire telecom industry, he said.
SSTL offers mobile services under MTS brand and claims to be one of the fastest growing telecom companies in India in the telecom space.
The current economic environment has dampened the spirit of unlocking value of a range of infrastructure companies. The impact is felt even more so within the telecom sector given the range of issues being faced by the sector, he added.
Industry observers believe that such sentiments are a reflection of the current mood in the telecom industry.
In October last year, Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal had unveiled draft National Telecom Policy-2011 that paves the way for mobile telephone users to make calls without paying roaming charges and change operator outside their circle while retaining the same number.
Declaring an agenda of 'One Nation-One Licence' across services, the NTP endeavours to create an investor-friendly environment by attracting additional investments in the sector, which has been marred by controversies relating to 2G scam in the recent past.
SSTL has invested over USD 2.5 billion in India, focusing on its data centric and voice enabled strategy.
The company nationally provides telecom services to over 15 million wireless subscribers, including more than 1,200,000 high speed mobile broadband customers in over 200 cities across the country.
The company is a joint venture, involving equity participation by Russia based-Sistema, the Russian Government and the Shyam Group of India.
The Russian government holds a 17.14 percent stake in the company. Sistema is the majority shareholder with a 56.68 percent stake, Shyam Group holding a 23.98 percent stake and others 2.2 percent.

Welcome to the latest installment of the BayBlog Question of the Week! Each week, we take a question submitted on the Chesapeake Bay Program website or a frequently asked question and answer it here for all to read.
This week's question comes from Peg: "We have a second home on a creek in Virginia. While there last week, I noticed an unusual quality in the water. The water appeared unusually murky and quiet and there was a large ribbon of a reddish brown color, very distinct, stretching through our cove. Contrary to normal situations there was a period of time where there were no fish noticeably jumping or swimming and no birds fishing. Could this have been some sort of red tide or algae bloom and what does that mean as far as water quality?"
Each spring and summer in the Chesapeake Bay region, low-oxygen "dead zones" and harmful algae blooms appear in various parts of the Bay and its creeks and rivers. The size and severity of algae blooms and dead zones in the Bay depend on the amount of water that flows into the Bay. That water brings excess nutrients and sediment from the land. Combined with high temperatures, the excess pollutants can fuel the growth of algae blooms and cause the water to become clouded and discolored.
The water condition Peg may have observed is called a mahogany tide, which can cause the water to appear reddish brown. Mahogany tides may also deplete the water of oxygen, which may be why Peg did not see fish in the water as she normally does. Algae blooms make conditions difficult for much of the aquatic life in the Chesapeake Bay.
Algae blooms can be very detrimental to the health of the Bay. Some are considered harmful algae blooms (HABs) and can be toxic to aquatic life such as fish, oysters and crabs. They can also cause skin irritation or other sickness to people who come into contact with them.
Even if algae blooms aren't toxic, they can still be harmful to the Bay. When algae blooms get dense enough, they block sunlight from reaching bay grasses growing at the bottom of the Bay. Of course, bay grasses are vital to the Bay's health, so when fewer bay grasses grow, the cycle of poor Bay health continues. When algae blooms die they create more problems, as the decomposition process sucks up most of the oxygen that fish, oysters and crabs needs to survive.
Since algae blooms are fueled by excess nutrients, you can do your part to help prevent algae blooms in your local waterway by taking small steps to decrease polluted runoff. Small steps such as not fertilizing your lawn, picking up your pet's waste and planting more trees in your yard can make a difference.
Do you have a question about the Chesapeake Bay? Ask us and we might choose your question for the next Question of the Week! You can also ask us a question via Twitter by sending a reply to @chesbayprogram! Be sure to follow us there for all the latest in Bay news and events
Algae are a vital component of the Bay's ecosystem—these free-floating plants make up the base of the food chain. Their size ranges from tiny microscopic cells floating in the water column (phytoplankton) to large mats of visible "macroalgae" that grow on bottom sediments. Algae behave much like land plants, soaking up the sun's rays to produce energy while converting carbon dioxide to oxygen during photosynthesis.
However, when algae populations explode to unusually high numbers they create what are called harmful algae blooms (HABs), which can:
In addition, certain algae can also produce harmful chemicals that are toxic to humans, wildlife and aquatic life. Fortunately, of the more than 700 species of algae in Chesapeake Bay, less than two percent of them are believed to have the ability to produce toxic substances.
HABs are primarily fueled by excess nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorous) in area waterways, which come from agriculture, air deposition, septic systems and sewage treatment plants, and runoff from lawns, gardens and paved surfaces.
While phytoplankton form the base of the food chain, the amount of nutrients now entering the Bay is overwhelming the system. Oysters and other filter feeders can't consume all the phytoplankton in the water. Unconsumed phytoplankton sink to the bottom of the Bay and are decomposed by bacteria in a process that depletes the water of oxygen. Decomposing phytoplankton, combined with high summer water temperatures, can cause large swaths of the deepest parts of the Bay's mainstem to have little or no oxygen to support fish, crabs and other marine life.
Residents of the Bay watershed can help give the Bay's crabs, fish and other species some relief from HABs by taking simple actions to reduce nutrient pollution, including driving less, upgrading septic systems, picking up pet waste and reducing the use of lawn fertilizers.
Bay Program partners actively monitor the region's waterways for HABs, so that if one occurs the public can be notified to protect human health. Citizens are also asked to keep a watchful eye out for possible HABs and are urged to report suspected HABs to their respective state environmental agency:

You are correct that we have taken down our sitatc website You know that sitatc is never good in hairdressing and it seems the same is true for web design. However in consideration of any inconvenience we have made 2 new websites for all our customers (both present and future), and are now looking at making a mobile website also. So I hope that will suffice for now but if not then come visit us at the salon or check us out on Facebook. Reply
