"The whole purpose of the trip was to truly understand poverty and learn what we can do to prevent it. I've learned that poverty can be broken down into three main components; lack of food, lack of shelter, and lack of education. Each of the nonprofits that we worked with emphasized a different component of poverty. So by the end of the week we were able to experience all three phases of what it takes to fight poverty at the community level."– Troy Barnes (Oregon State '17)

Is DJ Khaled Planning To Sign Lil Pump?
By Rico Panacea (@RicoPanacea)
(AllHipHop Rumors) Lil Pump made waves in 2017 after the release of his platinum selling "Gucci Gang" single. The single became so popular that he was even parodied on an episode of NBC's Saturday Night Live.
Lil Pump signed a record deal with Warner Bros. before "Gucci Gang" would take over radio stations throughout the nation. They deal paid off big time for helping the rapper gain exposure and expand his listening audience.
However, there was only one problem with the deal and that was the rapper's age. Lil Pump was only 16 at the time of the deal making him a minor and the contract was never certified by the court.
The underage rapper was free to void the contract after this information became public knowledge. This helped the recently named 2018 XXL Freshman become one of Hip-Hop/Rap's biggest free agents.
Rappers and label heads across the country have been trying to sign the rapper since he hit the market again. 1017 Records head Gucci Mane even expressed his intentions of trying to sign the "Gucci Gang" Rapper.
Recently, DJ Khaled posted a picture of himself and Lil Pump announcing his intentions to try and sign him to his label.
"MOGUL TALK!! STILL IN THE MEETING !!!! I TOLD MY LAWYER THIS IS URGENT !! Let's get this deal done," said DJ Khaled.
DJ Khaled would continue to express his sentiments and aspiration to sign Lil Pump to his We The Best record label.
"@lilpump @wethebestmusic??? LET THE LAWYERS WORK !!! Great meeting wit @lilpump and his team @DooneyThaLights @Abond15 @TimThaLights @ThaLightsGlobal BLESS UP !! AFTER YOU READ THIS POST MORE PICS OF THE MEETING UP NEXT !" continued DJ Khaled.
Do you think Lil Pump will be DJ Khaled's next big artist?https://www.instagram.com/p/BeY5EZ3Fz0d/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BeXGE6ZFbHm/

1. Re: extra word during out transfer?nishanta_46 May 22, 2017 9:24 PM (in response to joalc_2266616)
1) I suppose you are referring to AN65974 example firmware. If not, please use this. What is your test setup? Do you use the same as we have shown in the application note? Have you changed anything in the state machine or the firmware?
>> Can you make sure that the timings of the control signal at the GPIF interface is alright? First we need to check what the GPIF is sampling. If the timings are not proper at the start, there can be one clock extra (low/high) depening on the interface. I suggest you to try this using a manual DMA channel. In the DMA callback, you can print the initial couple of data bytes and see if you get extra zeros here as well. I think you will get extra zeros here, if so, you need to consider the timings at the GPIF interface here.
2) Can you probe the flags signals at different instances to show what you observe?
3) "except that at power up this flag is incorrectly asserted" please show the oscilloscope signals before and after you request for a transfer by the host.
2. Re: extra word during out transfer?joalc_2266616 May 31, 2017 11:19 AM (in response to joalc_2266616)
Thank you for your response- I've to work on something else so have not looked at this until recently.
I found the issue with the extra word of zeros: I was not providing the address soon enough. I know this is clearly shown in the AN65974 read timing diagram, but it's still surprising to me that address needs to be provided earlier than the read strobe (instead of along with it).
I've been editing the GPIF-II state machine, so it's not exactly as it is in AN65974 (I eliminated the chip select signal).
As far as the flags, I'll send a trace later.

We leave the month of 7/11 forever changed. It was a month of internal purging that brings us to August prepared for the next phase of change. There were a lot of physical symptoms through July as our brains are adjusting to full communion between hemispheres. We're still in the action phase of 2011, so July presented us with the challenge of relaxing into our upgrades as much as possible, but still doing when doing need be done! I found myself surrendering a LOT and I was grateful for the Cancerian energies that were digesting great amounts of emotion within the safety of the shell I had to nurture through the tides of July.
August brings us great creative movement. The imagery I'm shown is fiery figure eights emerging from the sacral, heart and third eye chakras. Fire is an element that transforms rapidly because it consumes what it touches. That isn't all bad, I love a good partially fire-consumed marshmallow, but I'm careful to put it on a long, non-flammable holder before I stick it in the flame! The alchemist respects the power of fire and uses it wisely to transmute. What is it time to burn out of your life? What could use a little fire under it to get it going? July offered us a great purging to clear the emotional residue so that we are open to create from a wise and conscious place, using nature's gift of fire that the dragons understood fully.
August fuels our love (heart), choice (third eye) and creative relationship (sacral) into the flow that transforms. Within the energy of Love, we experience ourselves as capable and at ease, we experience others as mirroring for mutual benefit, we experience challenge as strengthening flow and triumph as a step to continue moving beyond. Love, within the flame of a heart that Knows it is powerful, is the alchemy that builds the world anew. Choice is our vehicle of individual expression. The wisdom of an open mind sees beyond the moment and into the benefit of the past and the possibility of the future. Wisdom finds a win/win solution for self, others, earth and all, even if it is a temporary step. Relationship is inherent in life. You have relationship with yourself, with people of all intimacy levels, with money, with earth, with survival, with empowerment, with Source – nothing really stands alone. To ignite relationship is to bring love and choice into all aspects of your life. Feeling suppressed? With the fiery Leo love of August, we ignite the lionheart into the dragonheart, wielding the power of all five elements with the Divine Grace of Love.
The Cardinal Grand Cross
August will be our last month of the intensity of the Cardinal Grand Cross that began around the solstice. A retrograde Uranus in Aries (self liberation), retrograde Pluto in Capricorn (transformed ambition), Mars in Cancer (bold sensitivity) and Saturn in Libra (enlightened relationship) square off in a final round of tug-of-war. If it's challenging you, seek the balance point in the middle that observes the four directions from the stillpoint perspective of All Is Well, change is beneficial and improvement is the inherent pull of life.
The Moon
July 30 seeds the new moon in Leo, guiding us to nurture growth with the warmth of patience rather than the flame of haste. Leo is a generous and creative energy, so use this new moon to cultivate the spark into a warm, glowing fire. On 8/13 we have a full moon in Aquarius. This will illuminate where you are in or out of balance with the greater good, the global community. All life requires interaction and is connected. The Age of Aquarius is all about the Whole, and we are uniquely, individually united within that. Within the sun of Leo that knows ample supply and the reflective emotion of Aquarius that knows ample benefit, we are poised to support the self and others with the balance that empowers all. Are you feeling supported by the world around you? Abandoned? Frustrated? Enamored? Peaceful? Probably a combination depending on the day, but seek the warmth and nurturance this full moon reflects to you. On 8/28 we have a new moon in Virgo. Virgo is a grounded, contemplative earth sign that will help us build that creative fire energy of August into sustainable structure. Look within to find the choice that relates you to the world in Love.
The Retrogradations
Pluto is still retrograde in Capricorn (4/9-9/16) so we are rebirthing the world of form to support our deep inner world. Pluto is plumbing the darkest crevices of our personal and especially our collective structures, so remember that sometimes what seems negative at first glance will serve greater movement towards freedom in the future. Neptune is still retrograde in Pisces and moving back into Aquarius this month (6/3-11/9). This particular retrograde began within the June/July eclipse gauntlet and will end just before the next eclipse series and the 11/11. Illuminating Neptune beckons us deep into our Aquarian ideals that serve all with equal flow. Uranus is still retrograde in Aries (7/10-12/10) boldly going where we should have gone long ago! Uranus and Aries are bound to shake up some trouble! What's been troubling you that is ready for release? While not all steps to freedom are peaceful ones, they all have that potential. It is the wisdom choice that knows when to take a stand and when to turn the other cheek.
We have two new retrogrades this month, Mercury retrogrades back through Virgo then Leo (8/3-8/26) so it's a great time to check within before you communicate or sign contracts. This energy feels very much about being realistic with inspiration and creation to me. Are you taking the necessary steps, honoring timing and paying attention to warning signs? Hold your boundaries and yet be flexible when it serves beyond the moment and dream big!!! Finally, Jupiter is retrograde in Taurus (8/30-12/25). I gotta say, this one feels less lesson-y and more enjoy-y. Yay! If you find yourself feeling less than optimistic, then heal the core beliefs within that block you from Knowing you're capable, supported by a universe of Love and innately deserving.
Infinite Flow
The 8 signals the infinite flow, the connection, the reflection. From Spirit, we separate into one human form. Yet that is not the complete story, because we are united to All Life through the great unifier, Love. This is the picture of 8. Two separate forms united at a point that flows one to the other continuously. That is the reflection of life. Interconnected. Unique. Feeding the infinite flow. You do it as consistently as you breathe. This month we will be looking at the reflection of our flow out to the world. The reflection? It flows right back, so open your eyes so you can see your heart and relate to the world empowered with Love. For your heart is your true source of flow, and Flow is Freedom in form, ever forming. Happy August!

The following remarks were delivered by H.E. Ambassador Ayoob M. Erfani, Ambassador and Permament Representative of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan to the United Nations and International Organizations in Vienna, to a full-house audience for a side event at the 22nd Session of the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice.
At a time when the roles and rights of women in Afghanistan are a subject of great international interest, Ambassador Erfani's observations are especially pertinent and thus are provided here without editing, for interested ACUNS readers who could not attend the CCPCJ itself or this particular ACUNS co-sponsored side event (one of several side events co-sponsored by the ACUNS Vienna Liaison Office). Download the remarks (PDF)
"Women's role in Central Asia in view of the 2014 Afghanistan transition"
Vienna, April 24, 2013 | Welcome Address by H.E. Ambassador Ayoob M. Erfani
Dear colleagues,
I warmly welcome you all to this important side event and wish to thank our co-organizers UNODC, ACUNS and the University of Graz for their excellent work.
The Government of Afghanistan attaches utmost importance to the enhancement of the role of women in our country and I cannot emphasize enough that the women of Afghanistan form an inclusive part of its society. We need to take all necessary measures to enable them to take their deserved, equal role in the reconstruction and stabilization process of Afghanistan. In order to achieve our noble goals, all government structures are tasked with the implementation of the National Action Plan for the Women of Afghanistan 2008-2018 (NAPWA), which rests on three pillars: 1) Security 2) Governance, Rule of Law, and Human Rights 3) Economic and Social Development.
Clearly, the drawdown of ISAF forces poses some challenges, mostly in the context of economic matters, yet offers fresh opportunities related to leadership, ownership and redistribution of responsibilities, also along gender lines. In order to balance against possible negative implications, my Government is highly ambitious in its activities to create further opportunities for Afghan women to engage in the transition process. It will be crucial to mitigate any negative impacts of economic strains. In order to achieve this goal, the Government has developed a set of mechanisms apt to increase women's participation in the economy. We are seeking provision of micro-credits to help Afghan women setting up small businesses.
Let me mention two main factors responsible for impeding women's progress including occupational advancement in the past: 1) Lacking of education for girls 2) Absence of a prominent role for women in economic development. Please be assured that we keep working hard to change this narrative.
Again, Afghanistan is determined to continuously advance the position of women in all relevant areas, including human rights, education and training, health, political participation, and socio-economic progress.
Remember, in 2001 the number of students in Afghanistan was less than 1 million, and boys only. We achieved that 40% of the currently 8 million students in Afghanistan are girls, and we will continue to push both figures. This will trigger a favorable snowball effect, as those educated women will make sure that all of their children will go to school. It is our goal to reduce illiteracy to an absolute minimum.
In order to accomplish enduring economic reconstruction and political stabilization in the country, full and equal participation of the women of Afghanistan in all spheres of society is indispensable, and the Government will continue to utilize all available mechanisms and will support all efforts towards mainstreaming a gender perspective into all its policies for the advancement of the women of Afghanistan.
We will continue to promote women's active participation in economic and political sectors. Women actively participated in recent elections in Afghanistan and will do so again in the elections to be held next year, hopefully in even greater numbers. Today, Afghan women make up 27 percent of legislators in the parliament, and occupy 25% of government jobs, 9% of which at decision-making level.
Other key areas for significant women's participation are the process of reconciliation as well as peace and security. It is our goal to further increase the number of women serving in our security forces and also to train them to work as moderators in the field of early-warning and conflict prevention. This includes affirmative action policies. We strive to build and sustain a secure environment that enables women to live a life free from intimidation, fear and violence, and which supports their participation and leadership in promoting and maintaining peace and security.
Afghan women hold 24 percent of posts in our health sector and 30 percent of posts in the agriculture sector, and account for more than 50% of the country's vibrant, independent and free media as well as the active civil society groups, both of which are among the most visible and concrete achievements of the past decade.
My Government remains committed to fully implement all international agreements it has signed, including UNSCR 1325 (2000) to empower women, ensuring equal opportunities across all areas of public life and greater participation in the reconstruction process.
Following my short welcome remarks, Mr. Fedotov will deliver his opening remarks, presenting an overview of security, crime prevention and relevant frameworks in West and Central Asia, followed by a brief statement from Madam Ambassador Imanalieva of the Kyrgyz Republic. Thereafter, Prof. Kreussmann of the University of Graz will have a presentation, followed by remarks from Ms. Kosmukhamedova of UNODC on women's conditions in the public health sector. Our last speaker will be Madam Ambassador Beham, OSCE's Senior Adviser on Gender Issues, sharing her account on OSCE's policy on preventing violence against women and women's participation in the conflict cycle. After that, we all will be happy to answer your questions.
I thank you all for your active participation and valuable inputs.

Today it was great to walk down the hallways and see small groups of students huddled around a couple of iPads. They were helping each other 'play a game' during centre time.
They were also communicating and building relationships – something I have seen year after year when having students work with technology – as much as some fear the isolating potential of technology, these tools can be powerful community builders. When engaged in active problem solving, experts emerge (sometime in the unlikeliest places as I saw my 7 year old daughter show her big brother a new 'discovery' in minecraft).
The active engagement was great to see – as was the use in another classroom of the iPad as a document camera to enable immediate peer feedback. As was the documenting of student work via photos. It's great to see everyone getting more comfortable with the presence of technology in and around the school.
As the comfort level continues to increase I hope to see an increase in risk-taking and using the devices to be innovative in the teaching and learning throughout the school – with the entire learning community supporting, encouraging and sharing with each other (and beyond!)

The Italian Teacher (Large Print / Paperback)
April 2018 Indie Next List
"The same kinds of beautifully drawn, charming-but-flawed characters that made The Imperfectionists so wonderful also fill this novel, which follows Pinch (aka Charles), the son of famed painter Bear Bavinsky, as he grows up and struggles to make a name for himself. The book begins with Pinch and his mother, a failed potter, living in Rome in the 1950s in the shadow of Bear's celebrity and forceful personality. With evocative descriptions of the various cities in which it's set, The Italian Teacher is perfect for readers who want to be drawn into the lives of vivid characters and explore the meaning of art, family, and one's personal legacy."
— Laura Tischler, Solid State Books, Washington, DC

Here are two of the stamp sets:
Beach Hut:-
As you can see, the Beach Hut doors open to reveal the fab lady hiding behind her towel!
I coloured the image and sentiment with Promarkers and added Card Candy.
I coloured the images with Distress ink.
This is such a fab stamp set for men - I don't know one man who doesn't like to potter about in a shed or garage!!
I coloured the image with Promarkers and added a spanner embellishment.
For the second card, I used the 'inside' stamp. The stamp set is so versatile that the images work just as well together or on their own.
I made a diamond fold card, added papers and card candy and coloured the image with Promarkers and Sakura pens.
Thanks for looking x

There's never been a better time to start an e-commerce business. Sales are only going up, and the types of products and services you can find online has never been greater. If you're the enterprising, passionate and ambitious kind, you're probably thinking about how to get in on all that e-commerce goodness.
But where do you begin? Trying to start an e-commerce business takes a lot of research, planning and patience. But it can also be a seriously fun, exciting and creative project. Here's an outline of 8 steps for helping you (and your team) develop, launch and promote a startup e-commerce business.
Find your product or idea
You need one to start an e-commerce business, and thankfully, there are lots of choices out there. Just know that competition is heavy, even in the world of e-commerce. Trying to muscle in on the territory of the big guys can be tough, especially as a startup.
That's why you should go niche. Love shoes? Concentrate on selling a specific style (like men's boots) or a specific accessory (like custom or patterned laces). The more you can home in one thing, the more you'll stand out in the online shopping landscape.
Figure out your inventory model
Will you make products yourself (such as handmade jewelry)? Will you order from suppliers (such as big-name fashion brands)? Or will you have a manufacturer create a product you designed yourself (such as a card game or a line of watches)?
Choose your business name
This is a big one, isn't it? You need a name that stands out, tells customers about your brand, but also leaves room for potential expansion in the future. So, take your time on this part and make sure you find a name that fits (some startups take months to settle on the perfect one).
There are plenty of businesses out there, meaning plenty of names are taken. Make sure you have at least 3 names you're happy with, just in case 1 or 2 of them are already taken.
Decide on your business type
Will you be a self-proprietorship, starting out small and keeping personal control? Will you form a partnership with a friend or colleague and build something together? Or will you form a corporation or limited liability company (LLC) and aim for a sizeable business?
Secure your business identity
Register your business with the government and file for any permits, licenses or business numbers your particular efforts will need. Once that's done, buy your website address, and sign up for the appropriate social media accounts.
It's a good idea to research trademarks, website address names and social media handles while deciding on your business name. This way you'll know, before registering your business, if someone's taken the name or spelling that you prefer.
Select an e-commerce platform
Internet and commerce technology can be complicated. You have to think about site speed, appearance, security and so much more. Sure, if you have a big team, you can start an e-commerce business from the ground up. But if you're just starting out with a small team (maybe it's just you!), there are e-commerce platforms that take care of the foundation for you.
Research here is key. You'll need to look at the major players out there and see how their features lists and pricing schemes work for you. Some platforms want you to pay more for better features, and some want a bigger cut of your revenue as your business grows. Choose what fits your business model.
Develop your marketing and promotions
You'll need to be your biggest, loudest fan when you start. Tell your family, friends and co-workers when you start an e-commerce business. Go to trade shows or networking events. And that's just offline marketing tactics.
Build an email list and tell followers and shoppers about new promotions and products. Use automated campaigns to keep them coming back—like abandoned cart emails that remind them to finish checking out. Find what social media channels work best with your products and audience, sharing content they'll appreciate, and promotions they can't resist.
Then invest in paid online marketing, both on your chosen social media channels and your search engine of choice (you all know the one we're talking about!). The earlier you start your marketing efforts (both online and offline), the better.
You've got to spend money to make money. But you've also got to get people to like you, too.
Plan your shipping packaging
Every day, there are tons of customer orders out for delivery. With smart marketing and hard work, your own customer orders will soon join in on that delivery frenzy, so it's important to be ready for it.
Your packaging strategy should aim for 3 things. It should (1) protect your products properly, (2) minimize dimensional weight shipping costs, and (3) help your orders stand out in the sea of kraft corrugated boxes.
You can satisfy all those points by (1) buying new, undamaged packaging supplies, (2) researching the potential of mailer envelopes and corrugated mailers, and (3) designing custom packaging. If the potential costs of custom branded packaging make you wary, remember that something as simple as a strip of custom packing tape or a custom printed label is all it takes to brand your shipments memorably.
So now, you should be in great shape to start an e-commerce business, promote it, and bask in the glow of all that success. Just remember that any business endeavour (or any endeavour really, right?) takes time, faith and commitment. Treat your online store like it's a physical business—you wouldn't run a physical store merely in your spare time, would you? Show it the attention it deserves, and it'll reward you wonderfully in return.

About 90% of my posters are not connected to the database for some reason. I cannot figure out a way to connect them back into the database except one by one which is an enormous amount of time.
Cannot seem to figure out in the program if there is anyway to reconnect posters to the database.

German village of 145 set to lead renewable revolution
Canada's making headway in its green energy efforts, but a tiny village in Germany is already showing bigger nations the future of electricity
Business Operations
renewable energy
FELDHEIM, Germany—A tiny village of 37 grey homes and farm buildings along a main road in a wind-swept corner of rural eastern Germany seems an unlikely place for a revolution.
But environmentalists, experts and politicians from El Salvador to Japan to South Africa flocked here in 2011 to learn how Feldheim, a village of just 145 people, is putting Germany's vision of a future powered entirely by renewable energy into practice.
Chancellor Angela Merkel's government passed legislation in June setting the country on course to generate a third of its power through renewable sources, such as wind, solar, geothermal and bioenergy.
Within a decade, the country hopes to reach 80 per cent by 2050, while creating jobs, increasing energy security and reducing harmful emissions.
Germany's goals are among the world's most ambitious—and expensive. Other industrialized nations from the U.S. to Japan are watching to see whether transforming into a nation powered by renewable energy sources can really work.
"Germany can't afford to fail, because the whole world is looking at the German model and asking, can Germany move us to new business models, new infrastructure?," said Jeremy Rifkin, a U.S. economist who has advised the European Union and Merkel.
In June, the nation passed the 20 per cent mark for drawing electric power from a mix of wind, solar and other renewables. That compares with about 9 per cent in the United States or Japan—both of which rely heavily on hydroelectric power.
Expanding renewables depends on the right mix of resources, government subsidies and investment incentive, but also a willingness by taxpayers to shoulder their share of the burden.
Germans currently pay a 3.5 euro cent per kilowatt-hour tax, roughly $205 a year for a typical family of four, to support research and investment in and subsidize the production and consumption of energy from renewable sources.
That subsidy allows homeowners who install solar panels on their rooftops, or communities like Feldheim that build their own biogas plants, to be paid above-market prices for selling back to the grid, to ensure their investment at least breaks even.
Keys to the transformation will be getting the nation's powerful industries on board, to drive innovation in technology and create jobs.
According to the Environment Ministry, overall investment in renewable energy production equipment more than doubled to $38.44 billion in 2011. Solid growth in the sector is projected through the next decade.
The renewable sector already employs 370,000 people in Germany, more than double the number in 2004, a point the government is using as proof that tax payers' investment is paying off.
Feldheim has zero unemployment—despite its tiny size—compared with roughly 30 per cent in other villages in the economically depressed state of Brandenburg, which views investments in renewables as a ticket for a brighter future.
Most residents work in the plant that produces biogas or maintain the wind and solar parks that provide the village's electricity.
But it's not only in the country.
Earlier this month in Berlin, officials unveiled a prototype of a self-sustaining, energy-efficient home, built from recycled materials and complete with electric vehicles that can be charged in its garage.
The aim of the prototype home is to produce twice as much energy as is used by a family of four—chosen from a willing pool of volunteers who will be selected to live in the home for 15 months—through a combination of solar photovoltaics and energy management technology in order to show the technology already exists to allow people to be energy self-sufficient.
Germany's four leading car makers are also participating in the project with BMW AG, Daimler AG, Volkswagen AG and Opel, which is part of Buick's parent company, General Motors Co., each making an E-car for use in the home.
Such strong co-operation between Germany's industrial sector coupled with a political landscape emphasizing stability and a heightened public ecological sensibility makes Germany fertile ground to lead the way in the transformation from a post-carbon economy to one run on renewable energy.

Not much interest in the D4, so here are a couple of videos including BTS for shooting the promotional video. Interesting range of options, including underwater and aerial included.
re: not much interest...i think this cam is simply too expensive for the indie crowd to want to care. i can see how it would be rightfully attractive for sports, underwater and aerial apps.
Firmware update: https://nikoneurope-en.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/55916
Modifications enabled in this version
(hmm...'images are sharper and more three dimensional)
A couple of guys on NR are claiming that the FF video is as sharp as the 2.7 crop now (amazing if true) http://nikonrumors.com/2013/04/02/also-released-firmware-updates-for-nikon-d4-d3s-d3x-d3-d7000-and-d3200.aspx/
The D4 has unreal DR and Low Light Ability. It they did fix the FX detail and sharpness it would make a serious movie making tool. As for the price, don't forget that used and refurb units are always an option. You would get great IQ in video and photo for less than $5,300.00. Not cheap but it really could offer a lot of versatility for that price. It all depends on if the rumors are true about improved Video quality.
updated D4, it does look better in FX mode. DX still softer (quick observation) will do a comparative test with D800e soon.
New firmware released

Rob Cleveland opened Ear Wax Record Shop in 1996, with $11 in the register and hundreds of obscure rock records on the shelves.
But as of Nov. 1, as first reported on the music and culture website Tone Madison, downtown Madison's only metal- and punk-focused record store has closed its doors. Ear Wax did business for 23 years, surviving multiple music industry shifts, from the rise of MP3 sales to the dominance of streaming platforms.
According to Cleveland, the owners of 254 W. Gilman Street declined to renew Ear Wax's lease. Faced with declining sales and few similar, affordable spaces in town, he decided it was time to move on.
"I think it's more work to close a business than to open one," Cleveland says, referring to the process of closing business accounts.
Cleveland stocked the shop with merchandise partially by bartering his ever-expanding collection in person and on e-commerce sites, including Discogs and eBay. He exchanged discs across the world, as a far as Russia, according to his "various ramblings" on the Ear Wax website, which includes other fascinating tidbits from decades of record collecting.
Cleveland has great memories from Ear Wax, and especially cherishes all the bands he and his team partied with along the way. He also recounts a trip to Europe where he plunged into the continent's rare physical music releases, bringing discs back over the pond to share with fans and collectors in Madison.
Through its Barbarian Records imprint, Ear Wax also supported local bands, including Bongzilla and Pyroklast, with physical releases; the label reissued Wisconsin band Die Kreuzen's single "Cows and Beer," which had been out of print for decades.
"I was able to pay my way for 20 years selling records," Cleveland says. "But really the best thing about the shop — not to sound sappy — was all the people I met and friends I made, not only from Madison but from all over the world."
B-Side Records, which has been on State Street since 1982, is the last remaining record shop in the downtown area.

I missed this when it was published a few days back, but it's worth having a look at: Democrats (or at least the ones captured by this study) spent a combined $2.5m on promoted tweets between June 2018-January 2019. The biggest spender was Beto O'Rourke, with a grand total of $925,900 spent on Twitter alone:
Equipped with more money than anyone else, it's not surprising O'Rourke was the top spender overall. But even with all that cash on hand, O'Rourke used Twitter to raise even more money for his record-breaking Senate campaign in Texas. O'Rourke splurged on a handful of ads, spending at least $57,100 and generating 4.1 million impressions on a promoted tweet urging supporters to chip in after news of new spending from a pro-Ted Cruz super PAC.
The Center for Responsive Politics research discusses the difficulty in ascertaining the source of funding. Around $50k was spent by groups not disclosing their origins.
Absent from the Twitter spenders list was Donald Trump, who didn't spend a penny. But then, with 50 million followers, and a media waiting on every tweet, he hardly needs to.
Facebook, however, is a different story for the President. He has reportedly spent at least $8m on the site since records began in May.
Here's the Center on the fuller picture of digital spending in US politics:
The amount of digital ad spending reported to the FEC has increased in recent years. A conservative calculation of spending on digital services reported to the FEC by House candidates exceeded $33.3 million in the 2018 election cycle, more than twice the $16.2 million spent in the 2016 election cycle. The increase in digital spending continues a growing trend, rising from $12.7 million in 2014 and just $5.9 million in 2012. Altogether, candidates running for federal office spent more than $71.9 million during the 2018 election cycle, with $29.8 million by Senate candidates and $8.8 million by presidential candidates.
Democrats have spent substantially more than Republicans on digital services in the 2018 election cycle, as reported to FEC. However, Republicans outspent Democrats on digital in the three prior election cycles.

Common health issues
Hip dysplasia
- Hip dysplasia is an inherited condition in which the ball and socket of the hip joint do not fit well together, resulting in a hip with increased laxity. This laxity can lead to degenerative changes and depending on the severity, may require surgical correction.
Elbow dysplasia
- Elbow dysplasia is actually a collective term which refers to the effects of one or more diseases of the elbow joint which result in pain and arthritis. Many of these problems can affect both elbows and result in forelimb lameness and elbow pain, often requiring surgical correction.
Aortic Stenosis
- In Aortic Stenosis, there is a partial obstruction to the flow of blood as it leaves the left side of the heart causing the heart to work harder to pump blood to the rest of the body. This can predispose the dog to arrhythmias, heart failure, infection of the aortic valve, and sudden death. Medical treatment centers on normalizing the heart rate.
- Cataracts describes the transparency of the lens in the eye.While cataracts are a common finding in older dogs, many breeds, including Cavaliers, have a genetic predisposition to juvenile cataracts, i.e., occurring in young animals. Hereditary cataracts can occur as early as six months of age and progress to complete loss of vision by two years old. The good news is that most affected lenses can be treated surgically. Cost of treatment: $1,500 to $3,000 per lens.

Our Rock Stars…Ready for Rock The Houses! – By Interchange Australia Consultant, Amber Hall
The anticipation and excitement is building at our campuses and the plaque is being polished in the lead up to our Rock the Houses event on Tuesday 15th May! After the incredibly successful performances last September, everyone is eagerly waiting to perform on stage as they battle it out to be crowned the winners of this event! Each campus will perform three songs consisting of two covers and an original. Rock The Houses showcases the talents of every participant and the enjoyment that they get from engaging with the music program.
There is a wide range of research that validates how important music is to everyone's life. At Interchange Australia we strongly believe in the inclusive nature of music and how important it is to provide our clients every opportunity to play, perform and appreciate music. The lead support workers in our music program have over 20 years of musical experience and have each performed in various bands.
By participating in our music program, clients have the opportunity to:
• Learn to play various instruments, develop 'roadie skills' and enhance singing and stagecraft skills through our Day Options Program and music classes
• Perform at live gigs. Our band, The Hidden Wonders, performs at the annual RockCan concert and have also performed at other community events in Nowra and Campbelltown, at numerous Friday night dinner groups and at the Fri-Yay Street Feast event at The Mill in Bowral, just to name a few. They are also appearing as special guests at the upcoming Rock The Houses concert.
• Participate in a radio show. The RockCan Hour airs on Monday evenings between 5pm and 6pm on 92.5FM Youth Radio. Members of The Hidden Wonders come into the studio and are interviewed about their passion for music by one of our staff members who is also a host at the station. The band members also select their own playlist and announce the songs.
• Attend live performances at a wide variety of venues including local clubs, theatres and stadiums. Last Saturday a group had a fantastic night dancing and singing at an ABBA-Solutely concert!
• Interchange Australia also provides music and singing classes that include clients with dementia. Music is a recognised positive therapy for those with dementia in both a group setting and an individual basis. Studies show it lessens a person's anxiety and aphasia.
• During our ASDESI Holiday Kids Klub we provide an opportunity for kids diagnosed with an ASD to experiment with music and have fun with peers.
If you are interested in joining our music program, please contact our friendly consultants on 1300 112 334, visit one of our music classes to ask our staff any questions you may have, or attend one of our special music events such as Rock The Houses or RockCan.

The haunting final moments of Jim Carrey's ex-girlfriend, Cathriona White, are outlined in a just-released coroner's report — including her suicide note to the actor.
The letter, signed "Dewdrop," was found on her dining room table, and read:
"I've spent 3 days now in disbelief that you're not here. I can go on brokenhearted and try to put the pieces back. I could, I just don't have the will this time.
I'm sorry you felt I wasn't there for you. I tried to give you my best part.
I don't really know about burial or that sort of thing. You are my family so whatever you choose will be fine.
Please forgive me. I'm just not for this world."
The coroner's report, obtained by TMZ, lists White's cause of death as an overdose of several prescription drugs, including Zofran (an anti-nausea aid), beta blocker propranolol, Percocet and Ambien.
Investigators reported that Carrey, 54, texted the 30-year-old makeup artist the day before her death asking if she knew where his painkillers were after the actor couldn't find them under his sink. Carrey reportedly had a prescription for anti-inflammatory medication for his back under an assumed name. White never replied: The estranged couple's last interaction was on Sept. 24, when White texted Carrey asking if he was awake; the pair then had a brief Facetime conversation three hours later.
White's body was found on Sept. 28 after White's friends, Dennis and Lena Bradshaw, saw a cryptic tweet on Sept. 24 that read "signing off" and hadn't heard from her since. The Bradshaws, accompanied by Carrey's assistant, entered White's Los Angeles home through a side door after calling her cellphone and hearing it ring inside. They found her body, clad in a red T-shirt and black underwear, with her cellphone in her hand. White's body showed signs of decomposition, indicating she'd been dead for several days before she was discovered.
Friends of the Irish-born White told the coroner that she displayed "depressive qualities" and may have attempted to overdose on pills approximately two years earlier. White's friends also noted that she was deeply dependent on Carrey, describing their relationship as a "rollercoaster," noting that if she felt him "slipping away," she'd become increasingly depressed. One companion claimed that when White and Carrey first split in 2013, White stopped eating and sleeping for about six months — recovering around the time they reconciled in 2014.
White was laid to rest in October 2015, when Carrey served as a pallbearer.
If you or a friend are contemplating suicide, please call the National Suicide Prevention hotline 24/7 at 1-800-273-8255.

B.A., University of North Carolina, 1974M.Div., Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, 1977Ph.D, University of Durham, England, 1981
Dr. Witherington joined the Asbury Seminary faculty in 1995 after teaching at Ashland Theological Seminary for more than a decade. He has also taught at High Point College, Duke Divinity School and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.
A prolific author, Dr. Witherington has written more than 30 books and six commentaries, including The Gospel Code: Novel Claims About Jesus, Mary Magdalene and Da Vinci (2004), The Problem With Evangelical Theory: Testing the Exegetical Foundations of Calvinism, Dispensationalism, and Wesleyanism (2005), and The New Testament Story (2004). One of his works, The Jesus Quest: The Third Search for the Jew of Nazareth (InterVarsity Press, 1995), was selected as the top biblical studies book of 1995 by Christianity Today and the Academy of Parish Clergy. In The Jesus Quest, Dr. Witherington surveys the contemporary Christological landscape in New Testament scholarship, offering a helpful perspective on one of the most significant and controversial religious debates of the past decade. In 1999 he again won the Christianity Today book award, this time for The Paul Quest: The Renewed Search for the Jew of Tarsus.
Dr. Witherington, who has led numerous study tours through the lands of the Bible, is known for bringing the text to life through incisive historical and cultural analysis. He is a John Wesley Fellow for Life, a research fellow at Cambridge University and a member of numerous professional organizations, including the Society of Biblical Literature, Society for the Study of the New Testament and the Institute for Biblical Research. Dr. Witherington has also spoken to many groups about his topics of expertise, and even had the opportunity to preach at the National Chapel in May of 2006. In his leisure time, Dr. Witherington appreciates both music and sports. It is hard to say which sound he prefers: the sophisticated sonance of jazz sensation Pat Metheny or the incessant tomahawk chant of the Atlanta Braves faithful. A graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill, he is a dedicated Tar Heels basketball and football fan.
He and his wife, Ann, have two children. Ann teaches biology at Asbury College.

Thinking of a knock-down rebuild? Think Burbank. The knock-down rebuild is the perfect option for those who love their current address, but who crave a new home. Rather than enduring a messy renovation or finding new land to build on that comes with the expense of stamp-duty and a whole lot of hassle, the knock-down rebuild process allows you to remain in an area you love for a much cheaper price than moving to a new address- seems like a smart idea to us.
Find a plan you love suited to your block
Once you have made the decision to knock-down and rebuild, it's a good idea to get in touch with the team who will take you through the process. Your New Home Consultant will help you carefully select a home design suited to both the needs of your family and the restraints of your block.
Burbank will then check planning requirements with your local council to check if special building regulations are required for your build. They will also consult a surveyor to confirm specific requirements for the project, who will provide a standard fee structure for the surveying required. After this, and once you have happily chosen your design and accepted the surveying costs, you'll pay your deposit and we'll get a site inspection underway.
Soil Report and Site Feature Survey
We will come to your property for a site inspection as well as to organise a soil report, a process designed to establish the condition of your soil for classification. A site feature survey will also take place, that will highlight the existing conditions of your block by locating features on your site including services, trees, fences, pits, ground level, contours and so on. This information helps establish the preparation of your site costs.
New Home Proposal
Your New Home Consultant will present your New Home Proposal (NHP) and drawings. On acceptance of this NHP, you will be required to pay an additional deposit requesting the HIA contract with working drawings and you will be contacted by your New Home Consultant to complete materials and colours (the fun part).
Contract stage
Once you're happy with the final plans and colours, it's time to sign a contract and pay another portion of deposit. At this time you'll be introduced to your New Home Coordinator, who will now be main point of contact and will help with demolition and work on council approvals. They will submit development applications and gain planning approval from council to ensure plans comply and that we won't hit any roadblocks in the construction of your dream home.
Demolish your old place
Once all required plans have been approved it will come time to demolish your old place- you'll need to organise alternative accommodation at this point.
Your New Home Coordinator will organise a demolition provider for you, and then get in touch with you to discuss demolition and construction dates. Following this, you'll receive a letter outlining next steps.
If you'd prefer to organise your own demolition provider, our flexible team is more than happy to work with your selected company to ensure a seamless knock-down rebuild process ensues.
Build your new place
You've knocked it down and now it's time to rebuild it! At this point your Building Supervisor will be in touch, who will be your main point of contact during the construction phase. The time it takes to build homes greatly varies, but we would usually predict it will take around 6-12 months, depending on the complication of the build and whether it is single storey home or a double.
And voila! Your new dream home will emerge on your old block!

Columbia Committee Meets to Discuss Ward Redistricting
COLUMBIA - The process to realign city wards began Wednesday as the city reapportionment committee met at 4 p.m. at city hall. The meeting was held in committee room 1A.
The committee reviewed two proposed redistricting maps. Both were prepared by city staff to consider existing neighborhood associations and where incumbent city council members lived.
The majority of the committee was in favor of proposed plan A. Although there were some disagreements over the racial and economic makeup of the proposed wards, the committee will present the plan to the public on July 14 at 7 p.m. It's looking for public feedback before moving on to draw the lines.
"We have a September 17th deadline and we intend to reach it," said committee chair Bob Pugh.
The committee was formed after the 2010 census showed significant population growth in Columbia over the past 10 years. The committee is working to redraw ward boundary lines to redistribute the population, making the wards more equal in size.
This was the committee's first meeting since appointing an eighth member to the committee after complaints the group lacked diversity.

Bob's Red Mill
On of my recent dates out with my husband, we got the opportunity (thanks to Grandma Becky babysitting the children), to check out Bob's Red Mill. Bob's Red Mill is an organic-foods mill, store, and café in Milwaukie, OR which is practically a hop, jump and skip away from where we live.
I'm sure North westerners will regonzing the company name right away though people in the south such as my mom may have never heard of them before. I'm sure the number of organic, healthy products are increasing all over the US but I'm still thinking it's probably easier to get a hold of these types of products more around where I live than in Georgia for example.
It was a beautiful day out with spring temperatures and plently of sunshine. We couldn't have asked for a better day out with each other. We went for lunch but ordered from the breakfast menu at the Bob's Red Mill Cafe. I ordered scrabbled eggs, grits, spinach, and biscuits. And my gosh, I couldn't believe the size of those biscuits, I could only finish one and saved the others for the kids.
The food was delicious and we will most defiantly be going back again but next time we'll opt to try the lunch menu and sit outside if whether permit on their patio. I think it's awesome that anything you order you could so easily make at home buy purchasing their products right there in the store or at our local grocer.
I love the store, they have a huge variety of organic milled grain products from pancake, biscuits, grits, cornbread, flours, beans, seeds, nuts, dried fruits, spices, herbs, and many more mixes. You can buy small size bags or if you love getting more bang for your buck, you can purchase large 25lb bags! I'm thinking with the way we go through pancake mix and flour, our best bet is going to be going the big bag route. They even have large storage buckets to put your mixes and flours in at home. I love it, one of new favorite places to go. Hoping to go back soon to tour the Mill itself with the kids! I'm sure Melody will be fascinated by the whole process!
