|Wes Miller Bio
Courtesy: UNCGSpartans.com
Release: 09/09/2013
Wes Miller enters his third season as the UNCG men's basketball coach in 2013-14 after taking over the reins of the program in December of 2011 on an interim basis. Miller has spent his first two years building a championship-mentality throughout the program and has laid the groundwork for future success.
Miller and his staff were very active on the recruiting trail in his first full season as the Spartans bringing in seven newcomers for the 2013-14 season, the first full recruiting class under Miller's tenure. The highly-touted class includes six freshmen and one transfer. The Spartans were aggressive in recruiting North Carolina where they signed three All-State selections in Tyrone Outlaw, Clay Byrd and Diante Baldwin.
Miller and his staff also built on their success recruiting from the Baltimore area as they signed the Maryland Player of the Year, Tevon Saddler, a year removed from signing another Baltimore area standout in top-returning scorer Kayel Locke. Additionally, the Spartans signed Miami-area product Allen Baez, Netherlands native Jordy Kuiper and junior college transfer Modestas Masiulionis.
Miller, who was the youngest head coach in NCAA Division I at the time of his hire, made the removal of the interim tag an easy decision as he was named the Southern Conference Coach of the Year after leading the Spartans to the SoCon North Division title at the end of the 2011-12 season.
Miller took control of the program Dec. 13, 2011 with the Spartans sitting at 2-8 and led them through one of the biggest turnarounds in program history. Miller guided the Spartans to an 11-11 record the rest of the season to finish with a 13-19 overall record, including a 10-8 mark in SoCon play.
The Spartans lost their first six games under Miller to fall to 2-14 on the season but the program made an 180-degree turnaround posting an 11-5 record down the stretch. UNCG posted a seven-game winning streak during league play, which included several dramatic victories. The Spartans carried that momentum into the conference tournament where they advanced to the SoCon semifinals for the first time since the 2007-08 season.
Miller, who also spent the 2010-11 season as an assistant coach at UNCG, is no stranger to the state of North Carolina. He played three seasons at the University of North Carolina and spent two seasons as an assistant coach at Elon and High Point. Miller also ran his own basketball camps in Charlotte and Greensboro for two summers.
In three seasons as a player at North Carolina under head coach and mentor Roy Williams, Miller helped the Tar Heels to the national championship in 2005, two Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season championships and one ACC Tournament title. He was team captain as a senior in 2006-07, leading UNC to 31 wins and the NCAA Elite 8 as well as the ACC regular-season and tournament titles, and a final No. 3 national ranking.
As a junior, Miller shot 44.1 percent from the 3-point line, which was seventh-best in a single season in the UNC record book. His 64 treys that season ranked eighth in the ACC. He earned the team's Defensive Player of the Year and Most Improved Player awards that season, as well.
A fan favorite at UNC, Miller authored a book entitled The Road to Blue Heaven, which was published as a diary of his experiences as a North Carolina basketball player. In addition to his success on the floor, Miller excelled off the court, earning ACC Academic Honor Roll recognition and the UNC Athletic Director's Scholar Athlete-Award. He earned his degree in political science from North Carolina in 2007.
Upon his graduation from North Carolina, Miller played one season of professional basketball for the London Capitals of the British Basketball League, where he averaged 19.6 points per game to rank eighth in the league.
Miller was a prep standout at the New Hampton School in New Hampshire. He earned a scholarship to James Madison University, where he played one season before transferring to North Carolina to become a walk-on for Roy Williams' squad.
Miller married the former Ashley Love in August 2011.

The Associated Press reports Russia has granted asylum to National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden.
He left the transit zone of Moscow airport and his lawyer says Snowden's whereabouts will be kept secret for security reasons.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) made this statement in reaction to the news:
"If these reports are accurate, Americans in Washington should consider this a game changer in our relationship with Russia. Mr. Snowden has been charged with serious crimes and has put American lives at risk at home and abroad.
"Today's action by the Russian government could not be more provocative and is a sign of Vladimir Putin's clear lack of respect for President Obama. It is now time for Congress, hopefully in conjunction with the Administration, to make it clear to the Russian government that this provocative step in granting Snowden asylum will be met with a firm response."
The U.S. has demanded that Russia send Snowden home to face prosecution for espionage, but President Vladimir Putin dismissed the request.
Putin had said that Snowden could receive asylum in Russia on condition he stops leaking U.S. secrets.

Nintendo Reportedly Planning DSi with Larger Screen in JapanA report in Japan's Nikkei financial newspaper (reposted via NeoGaf) reveals that Nintendo plans to release a new iteration of the DSi with a whopping 4" in screen real-estate. That would make the new model's screen three-quarters of an inch larger than the current model. The story puts the release date for the updated DSi as later this year, with the price to remain at the same 18900 Yen as the one currently on store shelves. Whether it will see release outside of Japan remains under consideration.
The story attributes Nintendo's impetus to increase the screen size on substantial feedback from users. It also notes that the larger screen is meant to cater to older users who have expressed difficulty when gaming on the smaller screens.
There are probably more than a few folks besides older Japanese gamers who would think that in this case, bigger is better.

In defense of the Apple iWatch
Despite critics' frustration with Apple, the iWatch isn't the worst thing the company could be developing now.
It was nearly two years ago when I wrote those words in a piece for Minyanville called What Will Be Apple's Next Big Thing? I described how the releases of the iPod, iPhone, and iPad -- as well as the MacBook line and, to a lesser extent, the Apple TV -- have limited Cupertino's avenues for innovation. Although a credit to the overwhelming versatility to Apple's line of products, it's difficult for the company to develop and release a brand new product with similar groundbreaking features and promise.
Unfortunately, we're starting to see the fruits of Apple's complacency since then.
As the company began to rest on the laurels of the admittedly leafy iPhone and iPad, other companies like Google (GOOG) and Samsung (SSNLF) scrambled to out-innovate what was once the market leader in a bright, new future. And now, with a depleted stock and a mobile line that's looked stale for a while, Apple is no longer the go-to name for innovation. In the last two years, there have been a few updates and iterations of its existing products, but it really hasn't released anything earth-shattering.
Apple has left that to Google.
Between Google Now, Google Glass, rescuing iPhone users from Apple Maps, and countless whiz-bang features of the latest versions of Android, Google has critics and consumers looking six miles north of Cupertino for the next big thing.
But, ironically, it's the innovation that Google and Samsung have been championing that showcases the stuff Apple should and could be doing. After all, Apple is nothing if not open to inspiration." And what Google Glass could mean for technology's future, the proposed Apple iWatch is a step in that direction.
The only thing is, for many, it's blatantly a baby step.
This week, Forbes contributor Haydn Shaughnessy lashed out at the Apple iWatch, dubbing it, "The Distraction That Will Drive Apple's Stock Down." Shaughnessy called it a "low-value, insignificant project" that a "start-up (like Pebble) could have thrown up onto a crowdfunding site."
He may be right about that, but Apple desperately needs to be innovating and an iWatch isn't the worst place to start.
Take a look at Google Glass, and given the mouth-watering promise the product has, you probably have. Already, it's the star of SXSW, the subject of many a glowing review, and the quintessential example of how wearable technology can change the game -- all months before it's in the hands of the public. Granted, we may be on the precipice of a Segway-level flop, but the world already had small, personal transports. We really don't have heads-up displays connected to the complete history of human knowledge. And honestly, folks are much more willing to look like Star Trek's Geordi La Forge than a dork on a giant scooter.
Even if neither of Google's add-ons for the head or feet (the company just announced a smart sneaker project) is a runaway success, that will certainly not impede the future of wearable technology. And who might be able to step up in that arena if Google is unable to lead? Perhaps one with a small project which tested the waters and paved the way for something much, much greater?
I'll give you a hint: It's only been two years since it was considered such a leader.
No, the Apple iWatch hasn't blown people away like Google Glass. Yes, Apple needs to debut something bigger for it to recapture its status as a leader in innovation. But it's something new. It's something different. And it's a product within a technology rife with promise and feature-rich development.
The Apple iWatch shouldn't be a discouragement for the company to branch out from middling updates to the iPhone, especially into a field where many, many others will enter soon. I just hope that it's not the only field Apple has in its immediate radar.
May I suggest home automation?
More from Minyanvile
Re: Innovation from Google and Samsung....Samsung has grown to largest supplier becasue of cheap phone prices in the developing world...as far as outdoing apple they haven't is a bigger screen innovation? wha? that's product differentiation NOT innovation. Given the number of i4's sold I would say it shows bigger screen size is not viewed as an automatic must have but, there are people who want it. Maybe apple should offer a bigger screen maybe they shouldn't that's more about marketing not innovation.
Other than that, any differentiator or innovation for Samsung has to come from the android side. Seems Google has been doing nothing but trying to morf that has worked so well for apple. Tablets, stores (at least announced) phones, eco sysem, cloud, apps and OS thats IMITATION not innovation. You can't name any specific innovative thing other than a catchall of
"whiz bang features" are you kidding?
Re google glass: some will want it no doubt, I'll wager it will NOT go mainstream, and you have not seen or worn it so how can you possibly hold this up as innovative when it isn't even available yet? If apple leaked out all the projects they are considering would they then seem innovative? Apple is not gonna broadcast what's up there sleeve, why tip your hat to competitiors?
I'll bet the i watch or what ever whereable may or may not be lurking will have features you cannot possibly have knowlege of so to critique seems baseless.
We shall see what happens there is a 3 to 5 year window for new products and we are just coming into that time frame.

Raw Materials: Ambroxan
I could possibly go into the chemical properties of this aroma chemical. I could tell you how much it costs and all that sort of thing. But I've decided to share my love and admiration for it instead. The scent of Ambroxan is unmistakable.
The first time I smelled Ambroxan, I was sitting in my Synthetics class, surrounded by all my classmates who seemed to have the same reaction to the ingredient.
"Whoa! This is goooooooood!"
We were doing the Ambery family that day, and let me tell you, it's not easy learning that family, only because there are quite a few that smell similar yet different (Cetalox for example.) At one point, my professor Laurence Fauvel said: "the difference between Ambroxan and Ambrox DL is that it is finer"
What?? How can you tell something smells finer? It made no sense to me at the time. In my defense, it was still the beginning of the year. By the end though, I understood what she meant, it was a matter of quality. When you smell a great perfume, with carefully chosen ingredients, all from a reliable and enviable source, it smells better. Quality is something you cannot replace and it is definitely something you can detect.
Ambroxan is one of Firmenich's babies, related to Clary Sage (sclareol is a by product which is used to synthesize Ambrox if I'm not mistaken) and was first created to replace Ambergris (not in terms of exact scent, but in function), which was becoming rare and exceedingly expensive at the time.
(courtesy of tauerperfumes.com)
If you've smelled Olivier Cresp's Light Blue, you'll smell Ambroxan. You will also find it a great deal (that's the association I made) with Armani Code for Men. The general consensus was that it has a sexy man smell. Really! It's clean, crisp and has a mysterious depth that is very attention grabbing. It is fresh, woody, long lasting, with a hint of powder. It has a subtle ambery sweetness that changes because it is very non-linear, so it changes with your skin, very much like Iso E Super.
It is used as a base note in many perfumes these days and is quite strong in formulation. Remember when I mentioned Geza Schoen's Molecule 01? Well, he also made Molecule 02, entirely centered around Ambroxan. I've been wearing Escentric 02 for the last month now, as it gets hotter and more humid in Montreal, it just seems to be the perfect fit for whatever mood I'm in.
It's been all the rage to focus on one or two ingredients in perfume, which is a strange concept considering that perfume is generally 'supposed' to be built out of many harmonized ingredients. Schoen has done something new. With that said, many other companies, including Juliette Has A Gun have decided to hop on the bandwagon and do the same (Not A Perfume, using Cetalox instead) I think that once it is done, it shouldn't be done again. If only to avoid risking over-exposure.The thing is, in perfumery, understandably, imitation is the best form of flattery. But people these days need constant change, so if there is a great idea out there and you find that you want to do something similar, you have to find a way to still make it different. You HAVE to, otherwise, the work will always be comparable.
Ambroxan is used in so many perfumes, more than we think. So don't hesitate to stop someone in the street if they grab your nose! Ask them what they're wearing! Also, get a sample of Molecule 02, it's delicious! You'll get to experience Ambrox at it's finest.

Christmas Table Decorations for the Focal Point of the Gathering
When you sit down to Christmas dinner, are you keeping the holiday celebration in theme? Or in the mad rush to festoon the lawn, decorate the house, and deck the living room, did the dinner table somehow get missed? Not to worry — with little more than a couple of holiday table covers, a handful of holly leaf confetti, and a few other key Christmas table decorations, all table tops are adorned with a Christmas display that goes up fast and cleans up easily. The smart shopper combines single use decorations, like confetti and snow fluff, with reusable Christmas table decorations like LED candles and snow blankets. This saves money in the long run, reduces waste, and cuts down on the need for storage space in today's tight living spaces. Christmas table decorations are usually the least expensive element of your holiday decor. They're also the most neglected when we plan our holiday decorating, but since they occupy the focal point of the family gathering, they contribute mightily to holiday memories.

More support soda tax if for kids' health
Erin Allday

An overwhelming majority of California voters believe that sugary sodas are a major cause of obesity and that such beverages should be taxed - but only if the money raised goes toward improving nutrition and fitness programs in schools, according to Field Poll results released Wednesday.
The survey results came as a surprise, and also some relief, to public health and antiobesity advocates who had been disappointed by recent resistance to soda taxes, including a measure in Richmond that failed badly in November's election.
Whether there's been a change of heart among voters since then is unlikely, Field Poll officials said. Instead, the results seem to demonstrate a conviction toward supporting community programs to help people stay healthy.
"People get it - they get the tie between obesity and soda," said Dr. Anthony Iton, senior vice president of healthy communities with the California Endowment, a private health foundation that funded the Field Poll survey.
"The public is still not there on a general soda tax," he said. "But when you earmark it, when you say the proceeds will go to things like trying to improve the food environment or enhance recreational activities, then large majorities across the board are supportive of that policy."
The Field Poll surveyed 1,184 registered voters in California in October, plus an additional 156 voters in Richmond after the November election.

Statewide, voters strongly supported a wide variety of ideas for promoting healthy eating and fitness in their communities, such as giving more money to schools for physical education programs, keeping playgrounds and athletic fields open for more hours, and bringing in urban gardens and farmers' markets.
But their views on soda taxes are more confused. When asked about taxing sugar-sweetened beverages, 53 percent said they were opposed to such measures, and only 40 percent said they were in favor.
That turned around completely when voters were asked if they'd support such taxes if the money raised went toward school health programs. Sixty-eight percent of voters said they would approve such taxes, and only 29 percent were opposed. The results have a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points.
The results were just as striking among Richmond voters. Sixty percent said they would oppose a simple soda tax. But 66 percent said they would support such a tax if the money was earmarked for school health programs. The margin of error in the Richmond survey was plus or minus eight percentage points.
In the November election, Richmond's soda tax measure lost 67 percent to 33 percent.
"Because of the whole Richmond vote, I was a little surprised at the poll results," said Dr. Lydia Tinajero-Deck, a pediatrician at Children's Hospital Oakland who spoke out in favor of Richmond's soda tax. "It's a bit refreshing. Maybe it's time for policy to be pushed through, because people are 'yes, let's make changes.' "
Many health care professionals who regularly treat children and adults who are obese said the survey results are heartening, especially the broad support for community fitness and nutrition programs.
Programs in place
Antiobesity advocates increasingly are turning to more hands-on approaches to help families eat better and get more exercise. At Children's Hospital, Tinajero-Deck is co-director of a program that provides obese children and their families with access to a community garden, nutrition classes and fitness programs at the local YMCA.
Last year, Highland Hospital in Oakland conducted a pilot program to give bags of fresh fruits and vegetables to 15 families for six months. Children in those families maintained or lost weight over that time, and they saw other health improvements. They're planning to start a second program for 70 families this spring.
Trips to the farm
At Kaiser Permanente's Santa Clara Medical Center, there is an employee-tended garden next to the emergency room. Plus, the hospital has started a program that takes obese children and their families on tours of a nearby farm.
Those kinds of interventions - bringing healthy foods and easy opportunities to exercise directly to patients - are proving more cost effective and, potentially, more effective overall than any drug or medical solution, said Dr. Susan Smarr, physician-in-chief of the medical center.
"We have a pediatric obesity class, and two sessions where they actually walk a mile to Full Circle Farms," Smarr said. "They walk there, they do a garden activity like planting or harvesting, and then they cook something like a vegetable pizza. We have a wait list for that class now.
"Adding a gardening component to obesity prevention programs really does make a difference in how children eat."

Summer often brings busier travel outlets, but expect even higher prices, fuller flights and more delays on American domestic flights this season. The Air Transport Association reported that passenger revenue has increased 21% in May of this year as compared to the same month last year, and the average price to fly one mile has increased 17%. Whether you're planning a business trip or a vacation, prepare yourself for what could be a stressful and expensive trip.
Fortunately, an overpriced, packed flight isn't your sole travel option. Consider taking an alternative mode of transportation. Even though they're slower, you might actually take in some of the landscape as you make your way from A to B.
In Pictures: Vacation Savings Tips
If you have a car and you don't have to go that far, you could avoid the cab ride to the airport, long lines when you get there and unruly young children on crowded planes. But renting a car can be expensive: A five-day rental for a midsized car will run you just under $300, which is similar to the cost of a round-trip domestic flight before taxes - and that's before insurance and gas are included in the price. However, if you plan to take the family or have the option to get others to chip in, driving could be your cheapest alternative. And having wheels with you means fewer cabs and not having to learn new transportation systems once you arrive. It could be the best alternative ticket depending on what you have planned.
Taking the Train
Trains have a lot to offer in the way of comfort and ease. Train stations are often located right downtown in a city or town, so they're always easy to get to. When you're riding the rails, you'll often take a less traveled route, and passengers can sit back in the dining or observation car and soak up the scenic landscape. Amtrak also offers free wireless internet access on an increasing number of commuter trains, so you'll be able to get some work done along the way - or just surf the net. But prices and timing can still be a turn-off. A one-way ticket from Chicago to New York will run you about $110 in mid-July one way; it's less than a one-way flight, but is it enough to justify a 20-hour ride? Maybe, as long as you're not in a hurry. And if you aren't, take advantage of the multi-city ticket option, and build a trip around interesting stops in between. (For more travel savings tips, read Save On Planes Trains And Automobiles.)
Taking the Bus
The best thing about the bus? The price. If you know where and when you're going well in advance, check the price for a bus trip. Chances are you will be quite surprised. Greyhound offers 10-50% off on trips booked in advance, and again, if you aren't going very far, it could be a great option. Like the train, you'll enjoy looking out the window at the local sights, and could have access to a wireless internet connection depending on the bus. On the downside, bus stations are often located in the less-than-savory part of town, so try to time your trips to avoid arriving late at night.
The Bottom Line
There are some great perks that go along with avoiding the airport. Not having to throw away liquids or whatever other contraband you accidentally left in your carry-on luggage is certainly one, as is leaving high-priced airport food behind. Plus, you can enjoy the added autonomy or improved comfort levels that can come with some alternative travel modes. So don't just take other, slower travel options for granted. In the end, avoiding the high security, high prices and high stress levels that come with flying this summer might just be worth the added travel time.

Auschwitz Blueprints Go on Display in Israel
A journalist is seen during a presentation to the media before the opening of an exhibition, showing the blueprints of the Nazi death camp of Auschwitz, at the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial in Jerusalem, Sunday, Jan. 24, 2010. The neat lines and rectangular sketchings appear to look like any other typical architectural design. But the handwritten initials H.H., penned by the infamous Nazi SS chief Heinrich Himmler, indicate what the seemingly innocuous drawings represent: wooden barracks, gas chambers and crematoria.

By: Aaron Heller, Associated Press Writer
The neat lines and red rectangular sketches look like any typical architectural design. But the handwritten initials H.H. belonging to the infamous Nazi SS chief Heinrich Himmler indicate what the drawings represent: wooden barracks, gas chambers and crematoria.
Just ahead of the 65th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, Israel's Holocaust memorial Yad Vashem is displaying the blueprints of the notorious camp in Nazi-occupied Poland that has become a symbol of the Nazi genocide of European Jewry. It is the first time the plans will be on display for a wide audience.
Auschwitz was the largest of the Nazi camps where millions of Jews and other minorities were forced to work as slaves. Many died of starvation or exposure. Also, many Jews were herded on arrival into gas chambers, the bodies burned in crematoria and their ashes buried in pits. In all, about six million Jews were killed by the Nazis and their collaborators.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was expected to attend the exhibition's opening Monday shortly before flying to Poland to participate in the official commemorations at Auschwitz, where 1.1 million Jews were murdered in just over three years.
The Associated Press was allowed to see the collection ahead of the opening.
The camp's name has become synonymous with the Holocaust because it reflected the meticulous German effort to rid Europe of its Jews a plan dubbed the "Final Solution."
The blueprints illustrate the cold planning behind the plot. They include designs of the iconic watchtower entrance to the adjacent Birkenau camp, where trains transported Jews to their deaths, as well as pathway where the "Arbeit Macht Frei" sign was placed.
The sign, whose cynical Nazi slogan means "Work Sets You Free," was stolen last month and returned last week. The offices of Auschwitz commander Rudolf Hess and doctor Josef Mengele are seen in the blueprints.
"It is one thing to kill someone when you are angry, but to sit down and make plans for the biggest extermination camp that the world has ever known and to plan it as if they were planning a parliament or a school or something is just mind-boggling," said Martha Weiss, a 77-year-old Auschwitz survivor who was among a small group of survivors invited to see the display ahead of its opening.
"Sometimes when I listen to myself I think, 'My God, this couldn't have happened. I must have dreamt it.' But unfortunately, it is all true and I lived though it and I was lucky to survive."
The administrative documents at Auschwitz were kept in an archive next to the main camp. The Nazis burned the archive shortly before the camp's liberation in an attempt to cover up their crimes. But some documents, kept in a separate building, survived and fell into Soviet hands, where they remained until the fall of the Berlin Wall.
In 2008, a set of documents, including 15 original plans of the camp, were found in an abandoned Berlin apartment. It is unclear how they arrived there. The German newspaper Bild obtained the blueprints and published them last year after authenticating them with Germany's federal archive.
Bild presented the blueprints to Netanyahu in Berlin last August and they were to go on display at Yad Vashem Monday.
"The original plans detailing the construction of Auschwitz, constitute a graphic illustration of the Germans' systematic effort to carry out the Final Solution," said Yad Vashem Chairman Avner Shalev.
Shalev said the publication of the blueprints would help combat Holocaust denial and make sure that the lessons of the Holocaust remain fresh.
The blueprints include general plans for the original Auschwitz camp and its expansion to Birkenau camp, where most of the killings took place.
The exhibit also includes aerial photos of Auschwitz taken by the British air force during the war, a report written by two Jews who escaped and quotes from SS men and Jewish prisoners about the facility. Some of the photos captured smoke billowing from the camp's six crematoria.
A traveling version of the exhibition will open at the U.N. headquarters in New York on Tuesday.
Last September, Netanyahu waved the blueprints, sketched on yellowing parchment, at the U.N. General Assembly podium in an emphatic rebuke of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his repeated questioning of the Holocaust.
Daniel Uziel, the historical adviser to the exhibition, said the blueprints did not add much to what is already known about the camps but they provide "a great illustration of the process of turning Auschwitz from a small Polish concentration camp to the center of the Holocaust."
An old World War I barrack for the Austro-Hungarian army, Auschwitz opened as a concentration camp in the summer of 1940. It was originally designed as a Soviet POW camp and its first prisoners were Polish. But because of its central location and its close access to natural resources, Himmler deemed it the perfect spot to implement the "Final Solution." In late 1941, it swiftly evolved into a highly efficient death camp.

Drake must be the luckiest guy in music. He's got an enviable portfolio of assets: looks, talent, street cred, excellent connections, gold and multi-platinum. Now the Canadian rapper has a beautiful woman, too—at least a controlling interest in her legacy. But is ownership of the next posthumous phase of Aaliyah's career one benefit too many?
That's what some are wondering as we approach the 11th anniversary (on August 25) of the death of Aaliyah, who was killed in a plane crash in the Bahamas in 2001, at age 22, cutting short one of the most promising careers in music. Since then, there's been scant new material issued under her name. I Care 4 U, a posthumous album released in December of 2002, was followed by nearly a decade of silence.
Until now. Earlier this month, Drake unveiled a new Aaliyah track, "Enough Said," credited to Aaliyah featuring Drake and produced by the rapper's Take Care collaborator Noah "40" Shebib. There's more: Drake has promised a new Aaliyah album, executive produced by himself and 40, with 13 or 14 tracks, to be released later this year.
"Enough Said" Aaliyah featuring Drake
But is it a true Aaliyah album if key players in her life and legacy—namely her immediate family—are left out of it? Her brother, Rashad Haughton, went so far as to deny the family's involvement on Aaliyah's Facebook fan page. "There is no official album being released and supported by the Haughton family," he posted on August 7, several days after Drake released the new single.

The surrogate pickup. by Idaho Dodge Guy on 01/26/2013. Trim: 2013 Dodge Journey SXT AWD, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: I have driven pickups for over 20 years. Traded off my 2012 Ram 1500 Laramie for a 2013 Journey SXT with V6. Still having withdrawals, but the Journey is quickly helping me forget the trucks. The power and room are very impressive. The smooth ride and creature comforts help to ease the pain of giving up the Ram. The Journey is value packed and easy to own.
Cons: So far, I have absolutely no complaints. Other than its not a pickup.
Overall review: Excellent vehicle for the money. Couldn't be happier with this vehicle.

Quick Guide to MapReduce
Not everyone feels comfortable with MapReduce even if at first glance it looks pretty simple. Considering how useful and used MapReduce is in the NoSQL world, I thought it would be useful to put together a quick guide to MapReduce.
If the whole notion is completely unfamiliar to you, Kristina Kchodorow's(@kchodorow) ☞ post should get you started using a Star Trek-based story.
The next very detailed and visual explanation of MapReduce is Oren Eini's (@ayende) ☞ post. While the post relies on Linq to explain MapReduce, all steps are accompanied by nice images.
There is also this ☞ article by Joel Spolsky and the ☞ Stackoverflow answers.
In case by now you've already started to ask yourself how would you translate some SQL functionality you'll probably find ☞ pdf showing a SQL to (MongoDB) MapReduce translation:
While probably not as clear as the other examples above, Pete Warden's (@peterwarden) "MapReduce for Idiots":

Abbott Thayer painted this study for a large society portrait of Alice Maude Allen Atwater of Pittsfield, Massachusetts. He sketched her from life and focused on the details of her face and her general pose. But in the finished version, which he made in his studio, he lavished attention on the bride's gown of Japanese gold cloth with a Belgian rose-point lace bodice. Years later the dress remained in his mind, but when asked who the bride was, he had trouble remembering. (Prelinger, American Impressionism: Treasures from the Smithsonian American Art Museum, 2000)

Gloomy outlook for Jordan's once-hailed ICT sector
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is often lauded as one of Jordan's most promising- and fastest growing sectors. Last year, it grew by 25 percent accounted for 14 percent of the country's GDP, and provided, according to the ICT Association of Jordan (int@j).
This year's int@j ICT Report tells a sobering story. Although export revenue is up in the sector, total ICT revenue- now $617 million- is down 16 percent from last year, with domestic revenues down 37.5 percent. The telecom sector is also suffering with revenues at $1.69 billion as compared to $1.72 billion last year.
This is mostly thanks to a lack of government support, said Abed Shamlawi, CEO of inta@j, not just with investment but also in helping IT companies secure new domestic contracts and execute on existing ones. "Getting projects is more and more complicated, not only from an opportunity perspective, but from a logistics and contracts perspective. It takes forever to get a contract signed with the government."
"The government talks about some of the projects, but they have ben talking for the past two years," he adds. "What's happening? Nothing."
int@j Chairman Jawad Abbassi put the issue even more strongly, in a statement: "The decline in local IT revenues is disheartening and reflects little government investments in much needed national E-Government & E-education programs. Jordan's public and private sectors must work closely and diligently to enhance Jordan's E-government infrastructure and services".
With the government's current focus on raising taxes- including a 100 percent increase in mobile phone taxes this July, and a planned income tax hike- along with the censorship laws put in place earlier this year and a recent hike in electricity price, it's no surprise that IT revenues- specifically domestic revenues- are suffering. It's getting bad; some companies are considering leaving the country. The one bright spot in the report is the fact that export revenues are up 30 percent, driven mostly by data processing and software publishing.
This is partly because companies are looking outside the region for business, partly thanks to a lack of government spending, but also due to the fact that they seek larger markets that can generate better returns, said Shamlawi.
One potential solution is strengthening public-private sector ties to enable joint project, he said. To enable revenue sharing models, the system will have to change. "Currently, the legal framework does not enable public-private partnerships. This is the source of the problem," he added. Enabling regulation for revenue for these projects would be a step forward.

Orange/Soy Marinated Pork Chops with Pineapple Mango Salsa
Between the previous pancetta and now the pork chops… I guess you could say I'm on a pig-kick, so I think I'm due for a break from the other white meat for awhile.
Billy mentioned pineapple salsa and it gave me the idea to make a pineapple mango salsa to pair with something a bit more bland. Since I was sick of cooking chicken breast I opted for pork chops (they were also on sale, win!)
They were out of this world!
No, but really… you're oinkin' for this recipe… so check it out after the jump…

Step back in time and perform some primitive surgery. Heal the Bubonic Plague, remove an arrow from a solider, and save the town from its nightmare. This game border lines Trauma Center (obviously it has to, since its a surgery game as well), but has its own twists. Enjoy!

Rated 4 / 5 stars March 6, 2014
Dated, yet still a good beginning of the series.
From its graphics you can see its pretty dated, yet its still pretty cool. As from the medical surgeries, its pretty accurate, (not 100% yet its still entertaining taking this as a simulation game)
During surgeries too much blood flowing may make you think your doing it wrong during tense things yet its pretty cool with the blood effects and pretty gross while cool looking colour varying gore/blood effects, for example, the second surgery, kinda gross cutting the wounds and the liquid pouring, yet pretty cool.
The only thing that avoids its 5 stars would be the pretty repetitive song background which is kinda unsettling sometimes with its weird pacing while doing surgeries, besides that and being the only sound you can hear during the game, there are not much sound effects. Also with some weird health loosing with innacurate things, such as the last surgery, loosing health by, not straighting a stake? or, loosing health by not getting the cross on its place? and, when you're like at the 3rd or 2nd surgery and loose, you go back from the first surgery all over again. Kinda frustrating (just a bit, not much) but overall, a good start for this surgery simulation series. Give it a try!
Rated 5 / 5 stars November 26, 2013
awesome and cool and super fun too play

Fantastic! This may be a perfect recipe! My only changes were that I used a poblano chile instead of a green bell because I adore them, I had regular smoked paprika in my pantry, and I used linguica instead of the chorizo because you can't get Spanish chorizo in my neighborhood. I agree with previous reviewers in that the pasta should probably be cooked (or almost) before you steam the mussels. It's difficult to keep them warm while you finish the sauce & pasta. No complaints though - it'll be easier the 2nd time around. And there will be a 2nd time and a 3rd time, etc. Thanks, CL, for making my Sunday dinner so impressive!
Fideos with Chorizo and Mussels
Photo: Randy Mayor; Styling: Leigh Ann Ross
Available at tienda.com, pimentón de la Vera is traditional Spanish smoked paprika with a more delicate, nuanced flavor than American smoked paprika, which works if you have it . Be sure to use dried Spanish chorizo instead of the fresh Mexican-style sausage.

- 1 1/2 cups chopped onion
- 1 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 1/2 cup finely diced Spanish chorizo sausage (about 2.75 ounces)
- 1 large garlic clove, thinly sliced
- 2 cups chopped tomato
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pimentón de la Vera (Spanish smoked paprika)

Add wine and 1 cup broth to pan; bring to a boil. Add mussels to pan. Cook, covered, 3 minutes or until shells open. Discard any unopened shells. Transfer mussels with a slotted spoon to a bowl; keep warm. Return tomato mixture to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes or until liquid is reduced by about half. Remove from heat; stir in cream.

Uncover; cook 2 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and pasta is tender. Place about 3/4 cup pasta in each of 6 shallow bowls. Top each serving with about 1/2 cup tomato mixture; divide mussels evenly among servings. Sprinkle with parsley.
- Wine note: Let the Spanish influences in Fideos with Chorizo and Mussels inspire you. Albariño, the unique white wine of northern Spain, pairs perfectly. Martin Codax Albariño 2008 ($15) has crisp citrus and pear notes. Floral aromas and mineral nuances resonate with mussels but stand up to spicy chorizo. —Jeffery Lindenmuth

Vintage: The 2005 growing season was an exceptional vintage that produced beautifully balanced, aromatic wines with intense, focused flavors. Spring conditions were mild, but by mid-June temperatures began to rise and the summer stayed hot. As if on command, the heat backed off just enough in September to allow the grapes to spend extra time on the vine and reach their full maturity. It was the perfect ending to an ideal vintage that will certainly be remembered as one of the decade's finest.
Tasting Notes:
This Super Tuscan style wine offers delicate fig and baking spice aromas. Bright red fruit and dark cherries enhance the wine's balanced structure. The finish is long and concentrated with a hint of ripe pomegranate.
Among Tuscany's oldest and most prestigious wine families, Ambrogio and Giovanni Folonari (father and son) teamed with Allen Shoup to produce a wine that is true to Washington State"s terroir with plenty of Italian character.
