Last year the name Nine Inch Nails or Trent Reznor was mentioned a lot, when someone was talking about the future of music marketing. Trent has developed a complete new way for music marketing using the whole potential of web 2.0.
He demonstrated on how many ways you can connect with fans and how you still can give your fans a reason to buy in the digital age. There is more than MySpace, there is more than just giving your songs away for free in hope the audience comes to your live shows.
Mike Masnick was summarizing the NIN Campaign in his presentation given to MidemNet this year.

Nine Inch Nails Case StudyFebruary 5, 2009
Last year the name Nine Inch Nails or Trent Reznor was mentioned a lot, when someone was talking about the future of music marketing. Trent has developed a complete new way for music marketing using the whole potential of web 2.0.
Go legal and die!December 2, 2008
The year 2008 is nearly over and we are still having a situation on the digital music market that cause entrepreneurs like Michael Robertson (CEO of MP3tunes) to write articles with headlines like: Legal digital music is commercial suicide – Fans suffer as lawyers get rich (Article for The Register).
Still record labels or copyright holders (collecting societies) are torpedoing successful music services with big financial requests from labels for "past infringement", plus a hefty fee for future usage.
Michael Robertson´s comment: "Any company agreeing to these demands is signing their own financial death sentence."
But Robertson is not only accusing the record industry:
"The root cause is not the labels – chances are if you were running a label you would make the same demands, since the law permits it. The lack of clarity in the law is the real culprit – and it's the huge potential penalties that create an incentive for the big record labels' law firms to file lawsuits. Without clear laws and rulings from the court about what is permissible, every action touching a copyrighted work is a possible infringement, with a large financial windfall if the copyright owner can persuade a Judge to agree."
The problem is that changing the copyright law will need many more years – (Creative Commons and Lawrence Lessig are unfortunately no superheros) – … so the market has to be faster… has to find a solution… has to create an environment, where innovative business models can be develop without the fear of being sued the rest of your life. Why is there no chance to negotiate a true partnership between net companies and the content/copyright industry, where going legal is a real option for a start up, where both sides get the ability to create a profitable business?
Predicting the Digital Age 14 Years AgoOctober 27, 2008
Yesterday I read an amazing WIRED article! Well… great magazine…. but this one was from 1995. Remember how computers and mobile phones looked in 1995?
The article is about a new way of looking at compensation for owners and creators in the net-based economy. The author, Esther Dyson, predicted in her article all the problems the media industry will be confronted with in more than ten years time cause of digitalisation. She wrote about all the challenges for owners, creators, sellers and users of intellectual property. About the fact that quality content will be free, easy to copy but hard to find. And she made suggestions how content creators can find ways to be paid. The article could have been written last year … and still it would be a great one.
I had never heard about this article before… (sure, I had heard about Esther)
It`s quite a long article … I just wanted to quote a few of the best parts:
"In a new environment, such as the gravity field of the moon, laws of physics play out differently. On the Net, there is an equivalent change in "gravity" brought about by the ease of information transfer. We are entering a new economic environment – as different as the moon is from the earth – where a new set of physical rules will govern what intellectual property means, how opportunities are created from it, who prospers, and who loses.
Chief among the new rules is that "content is free." While not all content will be free, the new economic dynamic will operate as if it were. In the world of the Net, content (including software) will serve as advertising for services such as support, aggregation, filtering, assembly and integration of content modules, or training of customers in their use."
"I am not saying that content is worthless, or that you will always get it for free. Content providers should manage their businesses as if it were free, and then figure out how to set up relationships or develop ancillary products and services that cover the costs of developing content. (…) The way to become a leading content provider may be to start by giving your content away. This "generosity" isn't a moral decision: it's a business strategy."
"The definition of the problem, rather than its solution, will be the scarce resource in the future."
Owning the intellectual property is like owning land: you need to keep investing in it again and again to get a payoff; you can't simply sit back and collect rent. To some, this state of affairs may seem unfair. It certainly is if you grew up by the old rules and don't want to play in a new game. But if you look at the new rules by themselves, they have a certain moral grounding: people will be rewarded for personal effort – process and services – rather than for mere ownership of assets."
"So, what happens in a world where software is basically free? Successful companies are adopting business models in which they are rewarded for services rather than for code. Developers who create software are rewarded for showing users how to use it, for installing systems, for developing customer-specific applications. The real value created by most software companies lies in their distribution networks, trained user bases, and brand names – not in their code."
"With the means of production growing cheaper and easier because of the Net, a bifurcation will take place: more and more people will produce material for smaller audiences of their friends, while those seeking large audiences will give their stuff away or seek payment from a sponsor – and try to persuade influencers to recommend it.
In the end, the only unfungible, unreplicable value in the new economy will be people's presence, time, and attention; to sell that presence, time, and attention out-side their own community, creators will have to give away content for free."

Movie Financing Has ChangedOctober 19, 2008
In times where we still, well at least in Germany, discuss "illegal product placement" cases, Hollywood does its homework for years now.

The Evolution of Video GamesOctober 11, 2008
Once again a TED talk… sorry for that. But this is a really great one, even though it`s from 2006.
Game designer David Perry shows that tomorrow's videogames will be more than mere fun to the next generation of gamers. They'll be lush, complex, emotional experiences — more inclusive and meaningful to some than real life.
A highlight is the video inside the talk by a student Michael Highland who describes his life as a video game addict.
The video game market is the fastest growing entertainment market out there and there is no end in sight. Why? It`s the only market where the product itself, the technology, can develop year after year in new spheres…
And at the moment we have no idea where it will stop…
It just seems to be a question of time, when there is a convergence of blockbuster movies and games…
As we know, games can be much more than heading for the highscore or killing some monsters. Some games are more like a virtual reality…. more and more developers think about emotions, purpose, feelings, meanings, humour, learning, socialization… they are able to use completly new ways of storytelling… and of course you can`t beat interactivity…
… many out there are laughing right now about the second life hype…. but they probably don`t think about the time when these "virtual life" graphics, 3D effects et cetera get really really good. When they are on a level of a movie production, where you never know if this scene was shot real on location or just a 3D animation…
Multiplayer games are already a huge success…. but the graphics are still quite poor…
But there is a second important point that the video of Michael Highland reminds me of…
Game developers have a tremendous responsibility in the future… "brainwashing" was never as easy. If you don`t know what I mean, watch the video of Michael Highland.
iTunes Dominates the MarketOctober 9, 2008
A survey of 1,148 Internet users in the summer of 2008 revealed 58% of people believe iTunes is the top fee-based digital music service or download store according to a report from market research firm Ipsos.
By far the best known brand is also iTunes with an unaided awareness of 39%. (Second is Napster with just 13%).
Hopefully this dominance won`t be a problem for the music industry to establish or improve their business or pricing models. These figures show that most people still think there is just one brand out there. And if you know just one brand, you won`t know the business or pricing models of other brands… right?
Best example: Last.fm. Maybe one of the most innovative music services out there at the moment, but it faces incredibly low unaided (0%) and aided (6%) awareness.
And the time it takes to get a high awareness, even when you are a "mainstream brand" is a long journey. This is shown by the Amazon example, who get just 5% unaided awareness in their first year in the music download business.
So in the near future iTunes will show us the way…if we like it or not…
The Free WorldOctober 7, 2008
Universal McCann publishes every month a small "brief for executives" titled "Trend Marker". In July they had the theme "Welcome to the "Free" World". It`s 12 pages long and summarizes some interesting facts about this new "culture of free access". It shows why this "Free Culture" exists, what the business models are and has some case studies of brands, who already navigate the "free world".
The paper is just a short overview, and it claims not to cover the theme completely … I`m looking forward to Chris Anderson`s new book for that… but it summarizes some points of this area quite good.
Gerd Leonhard At PicnicOctober 2, 2008
Gerd is doing a great job out there for years now and his blog is really worth reading.
Here a video of his speech at the Picnic Conference in Amsterdam last week.
He summarizes quite well what`s going on in the new attention economy and how the music industry can survive in it building an new Ecosystem.
Watch it. It will be 50 minutes well spent. Really great stuff.

Examining the Anti-Genocide Movement
The Encyclopædia Brittanica defines a social movement as a "loosely organized but sustained campaign in support of a social goal, typically either the implementation or the prevention of a change in society's structure or values." Social movements have leveraged enduring change in the U.S. and around the world, from the civil rights movements to organizing workers' rights, and to ending apartheid in South Africa.

The applied science of ergonomics is all about various equipment designs so that use of said equipment causes the minimum amount of discomfort or exhaustion amongst people operating or using the equipment in the workplace. Using ergonomics for equipment design is usually done with the aim of increasing productivity and reduces the chances of any pains or injuries being cause by the equipment. The way ergonomics comes in to gaming is through the equipment used for gaming.
Almost every single thing that you use for gaming can be adjusted in a way to make you a lot more comfortable and also increase your productivity. You can get an ergonomical gaming mouse, ergonomical keyboards, and even ergonomical chairs to sit on while your play. Now most people are familiar with various types of gaming mouse and gaming keyboards, the different support features that they bring to make you work better and faster. However, not a lot of people are familiar with ergonomical chairs and why they are important.
The best gaming chairs will always be ones that are designed in an ergonomical fashion. The chairs are there to make sure that your gaming session is not constantly interrupted with uncomfortable positions, a constant need for adjusting your weight and your position, or a general need to move about and then go back to finding the "right spot" to sit in.
Because gaming has become an international phenomenon, and because it has become something quite a lot of children and adults do competitively, you will need to have the right tools to ensure that your work is done in a manner and area of comfort that you do not give your opponents an advantage because you were too distracted by your own discomfort. So when you are looking for a new chair, get an ergonomic design.

Student Community Action Club
The Meeting began with a prayer by Mr. Mardis and following that the 2017-18 officers were announced by Valentina Platas. (President – Mercy Manzanales, Vice President – Joely Melendez, Secretary/Treasurer – Brandy Valenzuela, Reporter/Historian – Valentina Platas, Chaplain – Valerie Toscano) They then went over how the students would be able to be contacted via a Snapchat group chat, Messenger, etc. The students present also voted on whether they should pay a five-dollar entry fee, whether SCAC shirts should be created, and whether they should continue participating in Volunteer Lubbock, in order to add to the SCAC's current money balance of $264.61.
All members were furthermore informed of SCAC's Facebook page which is 'Muleshoe SCAC' and were made aware of the volunteer opportunity, 'Snack Pak 4 Kids' at Dillman Elementary, which helps feed children with nutritious snacks.
The Spring Fundraiser was mentioned and has traditionally, in the past, been a Bake Sale. Following that discussion, a few suggestions on how SCAC could participate in the Bailey County Community were brought up and included, visiting the town's Nursing Home and presenting a Powerpoint, over both the Heritage Center's history and the SCAC History, during Western Day at Dillman Elementary.

The Top Fashion Tips In The Globe
A whole lot of individuals are insecure about their feeling of style. They see several individuals donning elaborate garments and considering that they could in no way do that. You can achieve any appear you are heading for with the correct variety of enthusiasm. All you need to have is some trend suggestions.
Often hair looks fantastic in a basic, relaxed up-do. Obtaining extended hair can be a discomfort, specifically if you are attempting to work or examine. When you might be short on time, a simple hair elastic and a couple of pins can support you to seem your ideal with a swift and fashionable hair fashion.
When you want to dress in black jeans to a more formal function, heels and a dressy blouse can make the outfit suitable. Colored denims are only a great thought if you are going for a seem that is a lot more relaxed.
If you wrestle with frizz, will not vigorously dry your hair with your towel after washing it. This will injury your hair and make it a lot more probably to frizz. As an alternative, wrap your hair in a towel and utilize mild stress, patting or squeezing the humidity from your hair. After dry, remove the towel and fashion as common.

Your appear can not only boost your impression, but it can make the people you encompass by yourself with seem far better as properly. Permit everybody see your style perception in action!

In recently re-reading Jeff Meldrum's thoughts on the enigma of Sasquatch, I was struck by how problematic the process of track casting was, especially as it related to dermaglyphics (aka those fine lines and ridges we term 'fingerprints'). It often seemed as if these patterns were only discovered after the cast had been removed and cleaned, by which time the question of pouring artifacts would have already arisen.
Pouring artifacts speak to false-positive ridge details that emerge during the pouring process as an aspect of the medium itself. These can, as has been demonstrated, create concentric ridges that have been mistaken for finger or sole prints.
Unfortunately, by the time the cast has been removed, the trace evidence has been destroyed.
The problem is that tracking follows a wildlife enthusiast's model where the emphasis is on the track as a whole to denote species with little attention paid to detail beyond size or identifying deformities. And while many take images of the track (often alongside a ruler for scale) as a whole, it is rare to find detailed, close-up shots that could reveal these potential dermaglyphics prior to casting.
If one were to set up a protocol for casting, it would benefit from including a full series of images shot with an extreme close-up lens and variable light sources to reveal hidden details in the track prior to its destruction.
Furthermore, if possible, laser modeling scans of the impression could be done in the field to construct a detailed three dimensional copy that could be studied in the computer, allowing the track to be cast with less worry--or left alone entirely, should that be necessary.
Granted, while the latter is an expensive setup, likely prohibited by the meager budgets of most cryptid enthusiasts, the cheap and plentiful nature of digital images using a good quality DSLR, lights, and close-up lenses shouldn't be.
Following this plan, investigators can begin taking pouring artifacts out of the equation to learn if Sasquatch indeed leave prints for us to study.

Variously lyric, satiric, tragic and fantastic, they are unified in their vigour and humanity. T The anthology features a rich assortment of voices from both new authors and established names including Abraham Verghese, Manju Kapur, Githa Hariharan and Amitava Kumar.

He has also edited and translated a number of literary works. His acerbic pen, his wit and humour, and, most of all, his ability to laugh at himself, have ensured him immense popularity over the years. He was a Member of Parliament from 1980 to 1986. Among other honours, he was awarded the Padma Bhushan in 1974 by the president of India (he returned the decoration in 1984 in protest against the Union government's siege of the Golden Temple, Amritsar). He lives in New Delhi.

Antonio Conte suggests Jose Mourinho has senile dementia.
Mourinho did not reference any managers with his "clown on the touchline" jibe but plenty thought it was a dig at the Chelsea boss and Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp.
In an astonishing scattergun attack, Conte implied that José Mourinho was going senile; called Arsène Wenger an "old coach" who needs to accept refereeing decisions with more grace; distanced himself emphatically from the signing of Ross Barkley and the pursuit of Andy Carroll; and declared himself "ready to fight" anyone who criticises him or his squad. "Maybe, sometimes, I think that someone forgets what's said in the past, which is his behaviour".
"I know that I celebrated goals running 50 metres, that I celebrated goals sliding on my knees, I got celebrations jumping to the crowd, I'm not free of that especially if we score a winning goal in a specific moment, I'm not free to have an out of control reaction but what I was trying to say was I behaved bad a few times and in this moment I control myself much better, doesn't mean that my passion is not the same".
The Manchester United manager was responding to comments made by Conte earlier in the day in which he appeared to make disparaging statements about Mourinho.
Chelsea reportedly have no ambitions to sack Conte regardless of where they finish this season, but a number of issues have arisen in recent months that could see the club and Conte mutually agree to end their relationship.
I think if Arsene watches the game again, he'll understand that he was very lucky in the game with the refereeing decisions, It's unusual because I don't like to speak about other coaches or players. If you want to go to fight with me I am ready.
"I'm ready to fight for me, for my players, for the club, with everyone".
It was a measure of the extraordinary volatility of Conte's broadside that, in a conference ostensibly to preview Chelsea's FA Cup tie away to Norwich City today, the word "Norwich" was not mentioned once.
But Mourinho denied that he had aimed the comments at Conte.
"I'm not this type of person".
Asked if Mourinho was resorting to "cinema" to distract from performances and results, Conte added: "I don't know. Now you have to show football knowledge and the cinema is not enough for the coach".
Conte described "very strange" the verbal fight between Premier League bosses: "I don't like to speak about the other coach, about the other players".
After weeks of docile, drowsy press conferences in which he has largely borne the insults of other managers and the pressures of a faltering title defence with good grace, Antonio Conte finally snapped yesterday.
Conte also hit back at Arsene Wenger after the Frenchman doubled down on his claim that Eden Hazard dived to win a penalty in the 2-2 draw at the Emirates. I think Mourinho might be suffering from dementia.

Let's see how I did with my goals this month!
1. Create a concrete study schedule a stick to it.
I definitely created the schedule, but I could definitely improve on the sticking to it part. The good news is that I'm on track! I start studying the next section in my review book today, and I'm excited. 🙂
2. Keep to a specific schedule/routine for dividing my time.
Success! My mom and I have set a day that we always spend together. Originally it was two, but she told me she was happy with one and on that day we have dinner together and watch our television series. Beau still gets Wednesday's and half my weekends. The rest is what Barley and I like to call time with the freedom of choice. A.K.A. I do what I want time!
3. Bring lunch to work everyday, and only eat out for dinner once a week (where I pay).
Eh, I will estimate that I brought lunch to work about 80% if the time. Not quite my goal, but still pretty good!
Why is time moving so quickly?!
Look out for my November goals later today 🙂

Tottenham kept up the pressure on leaders Chelsea with an impressive home victory over Watford, their sixth consecutive Premier League win.
Watford had started brightly, but Dele Alli's sumptuous strike – curled into the top corner after Son Heung-min's pass – signalled their quick decline.
Within just 11 more minutes they were three behind as Eric Dier smashed in from Son's deflected cross, before the South Korea forward added a third just before the break, firing in a rasping drive following Christian Eriksen's pass.
After half-time it was much the same story, with Watford only threatening in isolated moments, and Son further confirmed Spurs' dominance by meeting Kieran Trippier's perfect cross with a lovely half-volley at the far post.
Harry Kane, returning as a second-half substitute, struck the bar with an injury-time free-kick – the last kick of the game – and Son might have sealed his hat-trick from his earlier pass.
Mauricio Pocehttino's side are now four points behind Chelsea, who play at Bournemouth later on Saturday.
And they are also 14 points clear of fifth-placed Arsenal, who have two games in hand and play at Crystal Palace on Monday.
It was Vincent Janssen who led the line in Kane's absence from the starting line-up – and the Netherlands international missed another easy chance for the game's opening goal.
Trippier – one of the standout performers, his delivery was brilliant throughout – crossed low from the right flank, taking out goalkeeper and defence, but Janssen could only awkwardly divert the ball onto the bar via the top of his thigh with the goal at his mercy.
His only goal in 23 Premier League games, since a £17m summer arrival from AZ Alkmaar, remains a penalty against Leicester in October – and he was once again overshadowed by the dynamic and far more clinical Son.
Son's second goal was particularly admirable, diverting another superb Trippier ball into the back of the net with a deftly controlled finish.
But the pick of the bunch was undoubtedly Alli's. The England midfielder's excellent season continued with a 13th goal from his last 15 league games. You will struggle to see a better one this weekend.
Hornets have an off day
Watford beat Arsenal 2-1 away in late January, but this performance was a world away.
They might claim mitigating circumstances – it was something of a makeshift defence with Miguel Britos suspended and Younes Kaboul and Sebastian Prodl both injured – but once their positive start had faded, Spurs picked them off with ease.
Walter Mazzarri's side had moved up to 10th in the league with two wins in a row, easing pressure on their manager, but the Italian will still be concerned by the possibility of a slide down the table in their remaining seven games.
Mazzarri has said he wants to stay, but the fate of Quique Sanchez Flores, who was fired at the end of last season with the club in 13th, will surely be at the forefront of his mind.

"We live in an age of mixed-media.
In a time in which a smart phone stands ready in every pocket or bag, there is no longer a division between digital and physical spaces. Music can be accessed and played anywhere. Images are created and shared with the push of a few buttons. Divisions have been erased. High and low culture are consistently blended. Each moment is ripe with infinite possibilities. In this spirit, today's artists have moved both conceptually and physically beyond the narrow confines of traditional media or genres, drawing from and mixing together an endless variety of available material.
It was not surprising, therefore, to see an overwhelming amount of collage and mixed-media art submitted for this exhibition. Whether glued, constructed, montaged, mixed, or appropriated, the wide variety of material and media utilized to create the works on display is a testament to the prominence of collage in our contemporary context.
Collage first emerged as an artist approach in the 20th century. The Cubist experiments of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque audaciously mixed elements of high and low culture to break down traditional artistic ideologies. Notably, critic and poet Guillaume Apollinaire declared that this artistic approach was "steeped in humanity." In other words, it engaged directly with contemporary objects and contemporary thought. Followed quickly by the assemblages of Marcel Duchamp, and the appropriation of Pop Artists, all cultural material was fair game in the creation of art by mid-century. "Collage is the twentieth century's greatest innovation," noted famed artist Robert Motherwell.
The presence of collage has only increased in the 21st century. Today, the endlessly multiplying and expanding terrain of the internet has broadened this artistic horizon. Online, collage is the primary means of communication. A collection of social media posts—words, photographs, links, reposts and retweets—is widely recognized as a statement of who you are. Your online presence is a carefully curated and collaged self-portrait. Fragmentation, fracture, sampling, appropriation, and layering are all fundamental concepts that define both the field of collage and digital media. As viewers have become fluent in the language of collage, artists have pushed the approach further. "To find a form that accommodates the mess, that is the task of the artist," noted writer Samuel Beckett.
The thirteen artists featured in this exhibition have embraced the form of collage and mixed media in order to embrace the mess of contemporary society and to express a variety of viewpoints. Collage is a medium that by definition incorporates fragments and deals with opposing tensions, broken images, hidden desires, and collective myths. Layering imagery, cultural commentary, and a wide variety of materials, the works of art on display explore themes of ancestry, nature, consumerism, and memory. Collage is more relevant today than ever, not only as a rich formal language, but also as a mode of perception. The innumerable combinations of material offer infinite possibility, bound only by an artist's imagination."

We were hoping to release Winter Pack at the beginning of the season but considering it is still snowing it many places around the world and we are still wearing our winter jackets we think it is still appropriate! As you know we try hard to listen to feedback from our users and still try to balance making free and paid plugins for Lightning Bug. We are releasing Winter pack as a FREE plugin and it contains new sound samples and loops as well as a new visualization that will warm you up on those cold nights!
What's inside?
– 6 scenes: Blizzard, Cold Morning, English Wood, Country Ridge, Frost and Paradise Bay

How do you get it?
Hopefully by now you have realized that Plugin mode is the best way to use Lightning Bug! All new content is available only if you are running in Plugin mode. If you are still running the Built In Scenes, then we recommend that you give Pluging Mode a try! You can enter plugin mode but tapping the main screen to display the menu, then clicking the green puzzle piece at the bottom!
If you are running our most recent version of Lighting Bug, the Plugin Manager will automatically update the new plugins for you within about two weeks. If you just can't wait, then you can update the plugins manually by doing the following:
– Start Lightning Bug and ensure you are in Plugin Manager mode
– Click the menu button or tap the main screen to bring up the menu
– Click the Circle with a Triangle in the middle (second column, second option down)
– Click "Check for Plugin-In Updates"
– It will then refresh the Plugins and bring you to the main Plug-In Manager screen
– Click Winter Pack and it will bring start the download

Installation Notes
- Installation Difficulty: ADVANCED (Special Tools or Specialized Knowledge May Be Required)
- Make sure to install the bulbs by rotating all the way until you feel the bulb fully stop. If you do not turn it all the way into the housing then the LED will not be pointing at the pick-up optics for the outer rings, resulting in dimmer outer rings.
- Some housings have very little room, making rotating the bulb quite difficult. Please try to rotate fully, if necessary, use some lubricant on the seal to help it rotate more smoothly, or by pressing inward while rotating to collapse the seal and make rotating easier.
- For vehicles with LEFT and RIGHT specific bulbs be sure to put them into the correct side. If you notice that the outer rings are dim it is because the LEDs are not being aligned correctly with the pick-up optics, instead slipping more light into the inner ring and very little into the outer ring.
Notes / Warnings
- Please check your local laws to ensure legality when using this product on public roads and highways. In areas where this product is not legal for road use it is sold strictly for off-road, track or show use only.

Great Service
My second time purchasing from Bimmian and again great service. Ed answered my questions, I ordered my parts online and had them in hand ahead of schedule. Flawless from start to finish... and very happy with my purchase. Thanks Ed and Scott
No Issues
Been on my 135i E82 for about 10 months now. Looking as good as new. No issues!
As described. Beautiful.
Bright White Light
If you want a clean, bright white light, this upgrade kit does it. Easy to install (10 minutes). It goes well with the upgrade kit for the fogs and headlights. Very happy with all 3 products and appreciate the customer service (Ed, thanks!).
Easy Installation
This product works as advertised and makes my E70 X5 look current. Installation was WAY easier than I had expected. (The YouTube video that shows the installation is quite a bit different from the set-up in my X5.) The service from bimmian.com and the speed at which they got the product to me was outstanding. Could not be happier with the results!
These lights were perfect they look really good!
Crisp White
This LED Halo Upgrade Kit was installed 3 weeks ago. I am really pleased on how they have upgraded the look of my X6, from the dreary yellow halos to a crisp, white clean look. They look great, work well and have been working without any issues. The Bimmian staff was also extremely helpful with installation tips and answering all my questions.
Gorgeous, strong light. Be warned, the blue LEDs are VERY blue! Its a very aggressive look but may not be for everyone. Regardless which color you choose, this upgrade is a must if your bimmer has halogen halos. I had an issue with one bulb, but Bimmians customer service is awesome.
Awesome product makes look 1000% better but a pain to install not your fault lol
Very Bright
Very bright and easy to install in my E92. Bright even during the day. Definitely worth the money and rivals the Lux brand if you do not need the color changes. I recommend this 100%.
Very Happy
Very Happy with these lights, I have an Alpine white 5 series and the 6000k complemented the paint perfectly! Look awesome and dusk!
Great Product
Great product, very happy with the end result, the Halo Upgrade Kit was just what my e92 needed. Much better than the stock halos and easy to install!


text: Share: Comments Print April 28, 2011 at 10:35 AM Mullan suspended 10 games, fined $5,000 for Zakuani tackle Posted by Joshua Mayers The wait is finally over. The punishment has finally come down. Colorado midfielder Brian Mullan has been suspended a total of 10 games for his leg-breaking tackle of Sounders FC's Steve Zakuni on Friday and fined $5,000. A 10-game suspension matches the longest ban in MLS history and certainly sends a message that violent play won't be tolerated. Protecting players was a point of emphasis this season as stated in a preseason teleconference by commissioner Don Garber. Mullan was automatically banned one game and issued a $250 fine for the red card offense, but the MLS Disciplinary Committee determined further punishment was necessary for a tackle that was deemed "reckless, egregious, and showed utter disregard for the safety of his opponent." What do you think of the news? * * * (UPDATE 10:57 a.m.) — On another note, Sounders FC forward O'Brian White underwent surgery Wednesday to remove a blood clot in his left leg. White will remain at the hospital for several days and is "out of action indefinitely." The 25-year-old Jamaican had started all seven games this season and is the team's co-leader with two goals, adding two assists. Comments

Petrina Hicks - The Shadows
Exhibition: 4 September to 5 October, 2013
Rather than using her camera to capture an image of the world, Petrina Hicks creates a world for her camera. Within her studio, she assembles sculptural forms with a meticulous eye for detail - the shape of a vase, the fall of fabric, the pinkness of a shell. Her subjects, whether people or objects, are loaded with symbolism and exist within a strangely placeless reality, making them hard to pin down. In her recent profile on Petrina Hicks' writer Carrie Miller describes this process as one of 'seductive subversion', combining heightened technical skill and elegant compositions with an unsettling ambiguity.
In The Shadows Hicks continues to seduce and subvert. She draws attention to habitual ways of thinking and depicting in our culture, past and present. A particular focus for Hicks is the depiction women. In Venus, for instance, a model obscures her face with an enormous and elaborate shell. This imagery recalls Botticelli's Birth of Venus in which the feminine embodiment of sex, beauty and enticement, emerges from a seashell. But in Hicks' Venus, the shell literally overwhelms the subject, a wry comment on the sexual symbolism commonly associated with women in consumer image culture. In New Age a lump of quartz rests on the groin of a classically posed nude who reclines against richly coloured drapes. Where the symbolism of a crystal, associated in New Age philosophy with power, energy and clarity, meets another in the form of a classical nude, our reading of both is disturbed and distorted. Quietly heightening this disjuncture is a slight bruise on the model's white thigh that brings us out of the classics and into the present, out of perfection and into reality.
The five newest works comprising Greyscale are a mix of portraiture and still-life. Set against a neutral photographic grey, Hicks presents her subjects as a set of archetypes or perfect forms familiar throughout the history of art. The colour palette in the works – cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK) point to the history of the photograph, especially as a printed object, rather than a screen-based experience. The layering of draped fabric, of figures, vases and fruit within and between the images creates a three dimensional effect, emphasising Hicks' belief in photography as a material, solid form. The subjects exist somewhere between 'being' and 'object'.

Hello Celestial City,
My name is Jezebel Oynx Weaver and I have a dream a big dream getting out of this prison we call a city and going back home but to do that we need to first a leader who is capable of getting the ball rolling and get our city back on track of functioning like an actual city. My fellow candidates prefer to take things slow, or keep things as they are with minor tweaks, some don't even have a full plan as what to do. Let me ask you something, Celestial City. How many laws do we have? Do you know? Two laws! Shiva had left us with just.. two laws! No killing, no stealing. We don't even have 10 laws to mimic the 10 commandments!
Unlike my fellow candidates I do have a plan and here it is:
First, establish what I'd like to call a temporary monarchy or a soft monarchy with a city council. A small simple but effective government. We need laws, now. We need money flowing to the right departments now. We need to get things in order, now. Not after a long winded process of electing new officials. Not after long debates about which laws are best for us and then a majority vote being passed. We need them now, and fast.
Let me brush away your first immediate fears of a Monoarchy; it won't last. Not just because I say it'll be short but because the same forces that toppled Shiva's government can easily topple my own. We also have Captain Strong who would knock down City Hall around me if I started to do things that he percieved as "wrong." So if you were wishing for check and balances there you have it. Strong himself and Jerry's forces. They took down Shiva and they'll certainly take me down if my government is corrupt.
So with a monarchy laws can be past fast. Now mind you no law is permanent and are always subject to change as needed but at least we have something that'll take more than a note passed around in school to fill. We'll be able to get money flowing to the right places to encourage businesses and being the process of bringing a sense of normancy to this city.
Secondly, my next goal is to get the heroes organized and establish an Association of sorts. We have many great heroes who wish to better this city and protect it, however many aren't as trained as our police but their heart is in the right places. By creating an Organization for them they can recieve proper training provided by our police department, they can get paid for the good work they do, and they get to keep their secret identities! With our heroes getting proper training and support we will be able to avoid situations where entire buildings are knock down and lives are lost.
Third and not least, Funding our science department. I know this sounds crazy to be throwing a lot of money into one department but right now we have to put our faith in our brightest minds to help us solve a spew of problems. What problems you ask? Let me list them for you:
-A prison that can hold ALL kinds of metas for our most dangerous criminals.
-Equipment for the police so they can properly fight and restrain dangerous metas.
-Better farming equipment and crops. Yes, we'll have to get use to genetically modified crops just so we can feed our growing population.
-Research into dealing with that cosmic radiation in hopes of opening up new lands for us.
-Research into what is needed to survive in space because that same technology will help us survive in our cosmic radition filled planet.
And Finally... research into finding us a way home. I honestly don't think it'll take generations to solve these problems or figure this out. I've spoken to a few in our science department and some come from very advance societies, many generations above our own. They can solve these problems they just need the resources and materials to do so. We can have it done in our life time, that much I'm certain of!
I know as a people there are many uncertainties facing us in the future. We have to deal with invasions and beings come from other worlds yet that is a talltale sign that Shiva was lying and our worlds do exist. If people are still arriving here then she hasn't destoryed every known alternative univese. We can get back we just... need to work as one on this.
So vote for me, so we can pave the way to a brighter future, together.
Jezebel: Let's go home
Everything you need to know about the elections in Celestial City

The Craft of Glass
From solid blocks of glass sculpture to the finest crystal serving pieces, glass never just sits there. It reflects, glitters, gleams, and shines. Whether it's on display, on your table, or on your body, there's something to this material that draws your eye to it. Those who work in glass blow it, slump it, carve it, and etch it.

Packing Companies, Columbus GA
It's amazing how much stuff can accumulate in the home after long-term occupancy, and nothing showcases this phenomenon better than packing and moving. Many people on the verge of moving to a new home underestimate just how much thought and effort it will take to safely store their possessions before transporting them. While it's certainly possible for homeowners to take on the entire workload themselves, there are several great reasons to consider hiring professionals to tackle the tough tasks.
Take a Step Back Before You Pack
Moving to a new house can be a fun and exciting experience, but it's also draining and exhausting for those involved. Many people struggle to find an effective way to even get started on organizing all of their property in preparation for the transition. That's why it's always a good idea to take a deep breath, step back and focus on one room at a time as you plan your move.
Some homeowners find that keeping a written inventory helps them stay mentally and physically organized throughout the process. Seeing everything together on the page allows you to make an informed analysis as you decide what will go where, what should be packed together and which items may require special handling. You can also talk to expert movers for advice on how to best prepare your possessions for relocation.
The Cost of Doing it Alone
As you estimate the total cost of moving all your stuff on your own, you may be surprised at the cost-efficiency of a professional packing service. You can sink a lot of money into purchasing the tools, containers and other supplies needed to wrap everything up. Professional movers keep all of these things in stock, so they already have access to the essential tools of the trade to make the job safer and simpler.
It's also important to factor in the significant time investment required to do the work on your own. You can easily spend dozens of hours of hard-earned leisure time or waste vacation days at work to get it all done on schedule. Between the overhead costs and time investment, hiring professional packers and movers can be a great investment.
The Safer, Faster and Easier Way
Financial benefits aside, hiring expert packers and movers is also a good way to protect your property during transit. Our, experienced, well-equipped movers know how to get heavy furniture out of the house without destroying anything. They understand common issues and risks you may have never thought about before and have access to specialized materials to secure delicate items, like dishes and artwork. We train our employees intensely to pack and unpack belongings with efficiency and care.
Learn More About Pro Packing Solutions
The best way to determine if professional packers and movers are right for you is to call and request an estimate for your project. These services are available on a comprehensive or limited basis, so homeowners can pick and choose how they use them during their big move. Talk to your movers to learn more about how they can turn your relocation into a relaxing and stress-free experience.

Hey Hey Hey
I like to switch my look up daily, I'm always wearing a tonne of makeup even to work! I'm really not scared of expressing myself via my makeup.
At the moment I am totally in love with Illamasqua's Growl lipstick, a deep, dark mahogany shade. The texture is matte, which personally I love in a lippy!!
I was lucky enough to pick this little beauty up in the Illamasqua Sale just after Christmas, at the bargain price of £9.25! The sale is on until the 2nd Feb 2015, so be quick if you want to purchase this before it goes back up to £18.50!!
Have you tried Growl, or any Illamasqua lipsticks before?

Hello again everyone! So I went to the doc today and was informed that I just need to be careful about the old leg, and that part of my problem is that I have moving, or as I believe she called them, floating something which meant kneecaps. So my kneecaps don't stay where they're supposed to. So that was fun to find out. But, so long as they don't go popping around again, I can't complain. I've managed to more or less get packed. I will be carrying a small dufflebag for carry on, a 25ish in. bag of clothes and a 21ish in. bag for shoes, etc. The only concern is that the bags each have to be under 50 lbs. I haven't weighed them yet, so we'll be holding our breath. On a different front, me and the family finally figured out our banking situation problem. Up until this point, our problem was how to get money from an American account into a Japanese account (which I will set up when I get there). First of all, personal checks are not used in Japan. A Japanese bank can accept them, but it takes a few months, as many of the banks send them back to the US to check them out, before accepting the money. There are also things called INTERNATIONAL POSTAL MONEY ORDERS (not like regular money orders). These cost $3.85 at the US post office and can run any amount up to $700. Then, when you recieve them in the mail in Japan, you simply take it to the Post Office and they cash it out, then I would take the cash and deposit it. The snag here is that they are relatively cheap to send snail mail, but can get stolen, and to ship them securely and quickly, it's $40-50. Before I go on, let me explain why just using my American account is an issue. My bank charges 3% every time I make a debit or a credit purchase, or withdraw money, whereas there is no fee for a Japanese card. Also, not all ATMs in Japan are international (usually the post office adn some 7/11s have international 24 hr ATMs), so that means I'll be limited, and many places do not take credit cards. In Japan, most people pay with cash, so it is not unusual to carry hundreds of dollars (yen) on your person (the low crime rates allow this to be possible). Also, because I got the JASSO scholarship, $800/month are being given to me by the govt. into a Japanese account, so I have to get one. Anyhoo, so here's what we settled on. I am going to go with some yen with me, with a IPMO, and then, I'm going to withdraw money from my American account until I get a Japanese bank account. At that point, my family can then wire money directly into my account. For wiring money, there is no limit to how much you can wire, but there is a $45 fee. Even so, if you do it sparingly, it comes out to be the cheapest way to do things.
I still haven't heard any more about my family, but I'll e-mail the coordinator soon to find out. One should note that Citibank in the US is not connected in accounts to the Citibank in Japan, so having a Citibank account here will still be a problem once you get over there, though I've heard that the Citibank's have international ATMs, for anyone who needs to know. My next project is figuring out the different rail passes, so we'll be checking onto that soon. MY ADVICE: check different banks rates well in advance of your leaving to find which ones charge no fees for overseas spending. I've heard that Commerce and First Bank have no fees, though I'm not positive about that. This will save you some cash if you'll be paying out of that account for any amount of time overseas (this goes for places outside of Japan as well).

Like a good gardener, as a holistic health coach I have been taught to go to the root of my client's problems, when they come to me with blocks or symptoms I take time to listen and discover where these feelings stem from. A good gardener does not repaint a dying trees leaves green again. She digs up the dirt, goes deep to the roots to reveal the dis'ease'.
Women come to me seeking fulfilment and ease, but one of the most common 'symptoms' clients come to me with is lack of confidence. This lack of self belief is grown from many seeds. During my own journey of self discovery and through working with other women, I have learned that these seeds are often planted in childhood. In time and by asking the right questions I work with them to uncover what has caused this often debilitating barrier, the block that hinders them from reaching their true potential.
As a health coach I also believe that prevention is better than cure, and now that I have my own daughter, my wish for her is that she grows up with a strong belief in her self worth and enough humility to not come across as arrogant. I'm now conscious on a daily basis of what she is exposed to; words are probably the most powerful force at the moment. Words can fill us up, breed confidence or they can slowly chip away at it. I know from first hand experience how soul destroying words can be and how they can go on to cause deep emotional and psychological wounds.
We are all capable of making positive changes in the world on a daily basis and those can start in our own home, amongst our family and friends creating positive ripples as our children carry that positivity with them into school and so on.
As you know I not only wanted to create change through my work as a health coach, but also through my business as a whole. This is the reason why I created the #raisingwomencharitee range, as a tool to create awareness and funds for various charities that align with my mission, and also why I've joined forces with Monaco based GenderHopes, a non profit charity, founded by #mumonamission Vibeke Thomsen. Together we hope to highlight the importance of building confidence in young girls with our #raisingaconfidentgirl campaign.
Our joint mission is to encourage girls to focus on their strengths and to grow up celebrating their achievements.
"A confident girl is a girl who believes in herself and what she can achieve. She doesn't let anything or anyone stop her!"
- Vibeke Brask Thomsen, founder of GenderHopes
Registered in 2012 GenderHopes aims to combat gender-based discrimination and violence by raising awareness, informing policy-makers and the general public and by highlighting negative stereotypes that promote gender-based violence and discrimination.
Vibeke's mission is to address the root causes of the continuing inequality between girls and boys, women and men.
Since 2013, GenderHopes hosts events to mark International Day of the Girl on 11th October. In 2016 GenderHopes' art exhibition 'A Confident Girl' celebrated the Day of the Girl by bringing attention to the importance of building confidence in young girls so they can succeed in their lives and endeavours. As such, they hope to erase gender stereotypes to allow both girls and boys to fulfil their potential and aspirations in life.
From now until the end of April Raising Women will be donating 3 euros from every LITTLE WOMAN girl's charitee sold to GenderHopes.
To support us on our mission and to help raise awareness please click here to purchase a charitee for your confident girl.
If you as an adult still find that lack of confidence is holding you back from reaching your full potential and would like to work through this barrier, please contact me to find out more about how we can work together to nurture your self belief.
With special thanks to:
Stylist / Photographer : Emma Carr

The incompetence and venality of politicians is matched only by their shamelessness. Instead of getting their act together, they are determined to punish anybody criticizing them. The RJ Malishka case is a testimony to their meanness.
After a video posted by 93.5 Red FM's Malishka lampooning the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) went viral, two Yuva Sena members asked the municipal commissioner to file a Rs 500-crore defamation suit against the private radio channel. The video slammed the corporation for its inability to take care of potholes and drainage. The two young leaders—Amey Ghole, a corporator, and Samadhan Sarvankar, Sena legislator Sada Sarvankar's son—claim that Malishka and the radio channel were unfairly slamming the BMC.
In a typical case of pettiness, the BMC authorities sent Malishka a notice for mosquito-breeding in her house, even as the ally Bharatiya Janata Party and the Opposition criticized the Shiv Sena and the BMC for victimizing RJ. But it seems that the Sena and the BMC are beyond all reason; nothing can drill any sense, let alone decency, in their hearts and minds.
A woman biker lost her life in Mumbai on Monday because of a pothole. The country's richest municipal corporation cannot provide good roads.
Last week, a former Doordarshan anchor, died of injuries caused by a roadside tree that fell on her, the third such casualty this year in the city. The Times Of India reported (July 23) that the "incidents of branches and trees falling have occurred throughout the month. The owner of the bungalow, in whose property the coconut tree stood, had approached BMC months ago and paid to have the 50-year-old tree cut. After an inspection, a civic team decided to trim it."
On Tuesday, 12 people were killed, as a building collapsed at Ghatkopar in Mumbai. The building belonged to Shiv Sena leader Sunil Shitap who was carrying out illegal construction on it. He has been booked by police, but then it is usual to see politicians facing criminal charges but unusual to see them getting convicted.
Unfortunately, it is not just in Mumbai that the local authorities are guilty of criminal negligence; other cities and towns are no better. In Delhi, for instance, a 57-year-old businessman died on Monday, falling into a storm water drain at Mayur Vihar. The mishap occurred because a slab was missing at the pavement.
Against this backdrop, the fancy talk about smart cities appears surreal. It is like discussing for hours what kind of meal should be offered to a starving person—north Indian, Mughlai, continental, or Chinese. The discussion keeps going on endlessly but the food never arrives.
As I have pointed out earlier, the civic problems—indeed most national problems—do not call for massive funding or state-of-the-art solutions. After all, filling up potholes and making decent roads are not rocket science; ensuring that there are no missing slabs doesn't necessitate the management skills that only IIM alumni can provide; taking care of roadside trees don't require huge funds. The only thing needed is a little bit of—yes, a little bit of, not great—dedication to work. But this is not what our netas are willing to do.
Our political masters indulge in all manner of tokenism, symbolism, jamborees, stunts, and gimmicks; they make long, rambling speeches; they behave like juvenile delinquents in Parliament and other assemblies; they sanctimoniously assert their concern for their country, state, people, etc. In short, they do everything that has zero salutary effect on the nation and society. And when somebody reminds of their failings, as Malishka did, netas tend to victimize them.
Welcome to Modi's New India.

The League is open to any person who subscribes to the purpose and policy of the League. There are three types of membership.
The structure of the League parallels the representative system of the government under which we live. Our local, state and national governments are dependent one upon the other; the base is the individual citizen. The several League levels are also interdependent. Members determine the polices and programs at all League levels. Membership is simultaneous on all three levels where applicable.
The League acts in support of, or opposition to, selected governmental issues which its members have studied. It does not support or oppose candidates, factions or political parties. League members, as individuals, are urged to work in the political party of their choice. In order to protect the League's nonpartisanship policy, guidelines regarding the political activities of the Board of Directors are reviewed frequently.
The League is a non-profit organization financed by member dues and contributions, and through community and national finance drives which enable public-spirited citizens to help support the work of the League. Dues are collected at the local League level with Per Member Payment (PMP) assessments made by the National and State Leagues upon the local Leagues. A tax deductible LWV Education Fund can be used for publications and Voter Service information.
