American government kills off .kids.us
The US government is killing off the failed .kids.us domain, ten years after it was created by Congress.
The decision was explained in a statement posted on www.kids.us:
As a result of the changed landscape of the Internet and the many other tools that parents now have available to them to protect their children's online experience, effective July 27, 2012, the Department of Commerce suspended the kids.us
An accompanying document (pdf) from Commerce says that .us registry operator Neustar should stop accepting new registrations and ask registrants to suspend their sites.
All .kids.us domains will be removed from the .us zone by June 27, 2013.
The .kids.us space was created by the Dot Kids Implementation and Efficiency Act of 2002 and essentially forced on Neustar as a means for some politicians to get some family-friendly fluff on their voting records.
It's been considered an abject failure ever since, largely due to its strict content regulations and a lack of marketing.
From the Google results and the old .kids.us directory, I'd estimate the number of registrations at fewer than 100.
In the new gTLD program there are two applicants for .kids — Amazon and DotKids Foundation. There's also an applicant for .kid and an applicant for the Russian ".children".
Vignes out as CEO of OpenRegistry
OpenRegistry's founding CEO, Jean-Christophe Vignes, left the position to join a Paris-based law firm last month.
He's now senior counsel for the domain name practice at Caprioli & Associés.
Vignes said the change of jobs came as part of his family's move to Paris and that he's still a member of the OpenRegistry board of directors.
OpenRegistry (also known as Sensirius), which was selected as the back-end registry provider for 21 gTLD applications including .deloitte, .kpn and .schwarz, is based in Belgium.
It is believed that Hans Seeuws, Vignes' former second in command, is now in charge at OpenRegistry.
Christian group opposes .sex, .porn, .adult
Morality In Media, one of the groups that fought the approval of .xxx for years, has launched a letter-writing campaign against the proposed .sex, .porn and .adult top-level domains.
ICANN has received a couple dozen comments of objection to the three gTLDs over the last couple of days, apparently due to this call-to-arms.
Expect more. MIM was one of the main religion-based objectors to .xxx, responsible for crapflooding ICANN with thousands of comments in the years before the gTLD was approved.
Now that .xxx has turned out to be less successful than ICM Registry hoped, MIM feels its key belief on the subject — that porn gTLDs lead to more porn — has been vindicated.
MIM president Patrick Trueman wrote in one of his comments:
During the years of this fight against the .xxx domain, we said many times that the establishment of a .xxx domain would increase, not decrease the spread of pornography on the Internet, causing even more harm to children, families and communities, and make ICANN complicit in that harm.
That prediction has been fulfilled because the porn sites on the .com domain have not vacated the .com and moved to .xxx. Rather, as we have seen, the .xxx has just added thousand of additional porn sites on the Internet and .com porn sites stayed put. ICANN bears responsibility for this. The .xxx was not needed.
For some reason, the complaints are only leveled at the three ICM Registry subsidiaries that are applying for porn-themed gTLDs, and not the other .sex applicant.
Uniregistry's application for .sexy has not been targeted.
And MIM has apparently not read the applications it is complaining about; its call to action complains about non-porn companies having to pay "protection money" to defensively register in .sex.
However, the three ICM bids explicitly contemplate an extensive grandfathering program under which all current defensive registrations in .xxx would be reserved in .sex, .porn and .adult.
Does this sexy .sx ad portend a clash with .sex?
In the occasional DI tradition of linkbaiting Domaining.com with promises of scantily clad eye candy, I humbly invite male readers to get their goggles around this beauty:
Phwoar! Eh?
Anyway, there's a serious point here.
SX Registry, which is in the process of launching the new .sx ccTLD for the recently formed territory of Sint Maarten, distributed this flyer in the goody bags at ICANN 44 in Prague last week.
The marketing was aimed at registrars, presumably, but the company's web site has similar imagery as well.
It's pretty clear what angle SX Registry is going for, and it could portend a clash with .sex and .sexy, which have both been proposed by applicants under ICANN's new gTLD program.
ICM Registry (.sex), Uniregistry (.sexy) and Internet Marketing Solutions Limited (.sex) may have a potential objector on their hands.
Verisign's .name contract up for renewal
Fresh from winning ICANN approval for its money-spinning .com franchise, Verisign is now going through the same process to renew its .name registry agreement.
Notably, the company isn't getting the ability to raise its prices — the registry fee for a .name domain will still be fixed at $6 per name per year, according to the new contract.
There are lots of other changes, though. Many terms have been changed to make .name more in line with .net, which Verisign renegotiated last year, and with the standard new gTLD contract.
The company will, for example, be able to launch geographically focused promotions, in line with .net, and will be bound by new service level agreements, in line with new gTLDs.
While there are tweaks to the fee structure, the amount of money ICANN will reap from the deal appears to remain at the current rate of $0.25 per transaction or domain-year.
ICANN published the proposed agreement for public comment on Tuesday. They're cutting it pretty fine — the current deal, signed in 2007, is due to expire on August 15.

'HIMYM' Star Neil Patrick Harris on What to Expect at The Tony Awards
by PopEater Staff, posted Jun 10th 2011 5:00AM
Is Neil Patrick Harris now the hardest-working man in show business? These days he's juggling his duties on 'How I Met Your Mother' with a movie career that includes the much-buzzed-about 'Smurfs,' a hosting job with Sunday's '2011 Tony Awards and um, he's got 8-month-old twins.
But don't worry about NPH: He told Popeater little Gideon and Harper (with partner David Burtka) sleep 11 hours a night. We talked with the universally loved 'Doogie Howser' alum about what to expect during the show ("There will be the inevitable 'Spider-Man' jokes"), why he chose to raise his kids in the big city and he reveals details about the 'Smurfs' flick and how playing a coked-up hooker-lover changed his life forever.
What You Missed Last Night: Chelsea Handler ticked off at Neil Patrick Harris

During his Emmy hosting duties the other night, Neil Patrick Harris sang an opening number that included the names of many TV networks. Not just the major ones but also several cable outlets. There's one particular network he forgot to mention though, and last night Chelsea Handler talked about it.
How I Met Your Mother: The Bracket - VIDEO
by Joel Keller, posted Mar 31st 2008 10:55PM
(S03E14) First of all, let's get this out of the way: TedMosbyIsAJerk.com works.
Of course it does. We've come to expect nothing less from Bays and Thomas, as they love to use the Web to further the How I Met Your Mother brand. This site looks like it's fun: cheap 1996-era graphics and text, lots of exclamation points... there's even a song written by poor Anna, who still thinks Barney is Ted. Oh, and that Ted Mosby is a jerk.
It's not a coincidence that HIMYM's first truly funny episode returning from the strike is Barney-centric. Even though Barney seems to be the most one-dimensional character on the surface, Carter and Craig have used him (and the very game Neil Patrick Harris) as a blank canvas, giving him all sorts of backstory elements that seem crazy... but somehow plausible. He used to be a hippie; he has a black gay brother; he slept with Madeline Albright... it all seems entirely possible, doesn't it?

Puppy power: MPs forced to debate plight of factory pets in 'battery farms for dogs'
Hundreds of thousands of puppies and kittens bred in the pet equivalent of 'battery farms' is a national pet 'crisis', warn campaigners
Wednesday 27 November 2013
Born into a world of darkness and filth, with little or no human contact, they are often left without food or water. At just a few weeks old they are taken from their mothers and transported vast distances in search of profits for those who breed them.
The plight of hundreds of thousands of puppies and kittens bred in the pet equivalent of "battery farms" is a national pet "crisis" campaigners warned tonight.
There are no official statistics for what is a largely hidden problem, with many puppy farms not bothering to have a licence to breed animals. Yet the factory farming of pets for profit requires urgent action, according to experts. Young animals are not vaccinated against diseases or given basic vet care, resulting in a time bomb of future health problems. Thousands of animals are dying each year from poor health due to the terrible conditions in which they have been kept and bred, suffering diseases such as parvovirus and canine distemper, claim campaigners.
In a bid to crack down on the trade, more than a hundred thousand people have signed a petition calling on the government to "end the cruel practice of puppy/kitten farming" and ban the sale of young pets where the mother is not present and interacting with her litter.
Factory farmed puppies and kittens are separated from their mothers too early and go on to suffer weakened immune systems and shorter life spans, the petition claims. Launched by TV vet Marc Abraham earlier this year, it has now passed the 100,000 threshold needed to see the issue debated in the House of Commons.
"Puppy farming is an animal welfare crisis happening right under our noses and in my opinion it's only the public now, through awareness and education, that have the power to stop this cruelty. This is a vile industry totally driven by disgusting greed and profit so if there's no demand for these animals it will stop," said Mr Abraham, founder of Pup Aid.
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of puppy farms, across the country, many "battery farms for dogs" according to the vet.
A single shed, with 200 breeding bitches, can breed 4,000 puppies a year. And the profits can be vast – with puppies often sold on to dealers for around £30 a time, but sold on by dealers for hundreds of pounds each.
While informal breeding of dogs and cats is as old as the keeping of them as pets, industrial-scale farms are a modern day phenomenon – in part the legacy of past foot and mouth epidemics which saw farmers encouraged to switch to alternative ways of making money, such as breeding dogs. And while kitten farms do exist, the main problem is in puppies – driven by a demand which can see a single puppy fetching more than £500.
The RSPCA receives more than 1,500 complaints about puppy farms each year. A spokesman for the charity said: "We receive a huge number of calls from people who complain that puppies they have brought have then become extremely sick, or even died, shortly after purchase."
But they added: "The stark reality is that while people continue to fuel the demand for such puppies, these rogue sellers will continue to operate."
Hundreds of thousands [425,000] of people who have bought puppies online or in pets shops have failed to experience 'overall good health' of their pet, according to the Kennel Club. And some 85,000 puppies bought via social media or over the internet die before they reach six months old, it claims. "We have an extremely serious consumer protection and puppy welfare crisis on our hands," commented Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary.
A spokesperson for the Dogs Trust, who are backing calls for a ban on the sale of puppies and kittens without their mother being present, warned that people should "look particularly at the interaction between the mother and its puppy, rather than simply being satisfied with a viewing of 'the mother' which may not be the pup's mother at all."
The demands for action over puppy farming have cross-party support. Green Party MP Caroline Lucas said: "I will do all I can to promote a debate in the Chamber about it as soon as possible. Puppy and kitten farming is an inhumane practice, which the Government should ban immediately."
Labour Rob Flello MP confirmed tonight he is to request a debate in the Commons – likely to take place in March next year. Puppy farming is "industrial in scale" and he warned that many places are not registered "and local authorities don't have resources to inspect those that are."
And Conservative MP Simon Kirby MP said: "As a dog owner myself this particular issue struck a chord. I signed this petition as puppy farming is an increasing problem, I understand that as many as one in three puppies are bought through outlets often used by puppy farmers. I therefore hope that time will be found for a debate on this important issue."
In a statement, a Defra spokesperson said: "Anyone buying a puppy has a responsibility to ensure it is coming from a reputable place with high animal welfare standards." They added: "They should also be able to see the puppy interacting with its mother."

Had evening meal and breakfast and both were great. Excellent selection of vegetarian food. Friendly and enthusiastic staff. Highly recommended.
Great American grub! Good tasting food, with attentive staff. Slightly on the unhealthy side, with a lot of meat dishes and burgers on the menu.
But great value for money with a good ol' American taste!
And while you're there - rent a DVD!
have been here twice, once for a drink a few years ago and last time fofolunch, service was friendly and the presidential burger I had was great, lovely little place. Will go again when I am in the area.
We visited twice in a week while on holiday, once at lunchtime and once in the evening. We found the place fun and quirky, and the food really good for the prices charged.

We needed somewhere to eat before heading on to a party and stumbled across this quirky little restaurant - and boy were we pleased!
Great food with superb authentic American (nothing is too much trouble) service.
Delightful evening thank you
So, I rang up and asked if they had a table and after much 'humming and hahing' they said they would be able to give us a table for 6 people. What they didn't say is that they also do DVD rental and out table was two pushed together in that section of the building. Such a pleasure to eat...

Dennis Rodman has checked into an undisclosed alcohol rehabilitation center to treat his longtime struggle with alcoholism, his agent says.
Darren Prince declined to say which facility will treat Rodman and how long he will be there. Rodman recently returned to the United States from his latest trip to North Korea.
He later apologized for comments he made in North Korea about a detained American missionary, saying he had been drinking and was under pressure as he organized an exhibition game there. He also sang "Happy Birthday" to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un at the start of the friendly game.
Prince says Rodman "is embarrassed, saddened and remorseful for the anger and hurt his words have caused."
Rodman won five NBA championships with the Detroit Pistons and Chicago Bulls and was one of the NBA's fiercest rebounders and most colorful personalities.

This was a lovely foundation. Picked it up because nothing was withstanding my oily post-birth control skin. This lasted! Nice finish and actually had a light and yellow enough shade. Sadly, it broke me out pretty badly so it was returned. But if it hadn't broke me out i would have loved it!

Shampoo -Andalou Naturals - Brilliant Shine-Sunflower and Citrus shannonannagins on 10/25/2014 11:08:00 PM
I have used this for about a week, and I love both the shampoo and the conditioner. My hair is fine, thick, and wavy. It has never been chemically treated, nor is it ever exposed to heat styling. It's just above shoulder-length. Because of these factors, I have very healthy hair and actually have very good luck with the cheapest drugstore shampoos--except for one thing...my poor skin. I am allergic/sensitive to SLS, SLES, ALS, and ALES, which means that every drugstore shampoo leaves my hair

I have start by saying I do not like the nude lip look that is light brown or beige. It washes my out with my NW20 complexion. This is a nice pink/mauve nude. I use NYX mauve lipliner and this gives a nice neutral lip look. The mauve lip liner deepens the color and makes it last even through a cup of tea. The shimmer gives a nice glow but is not the frosty 1980s look. This is a great look for smokey eyes or a minimal makeup look.

The dress, which was revealed on Friday morning as Kate arrived at Westminster Abbey to marry Prince William, was the subject of months of speculation.
The royal bride walked down the aisle in the ivory gown with lace applique floral detail, designed by Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen.
Shoppers turned out in numbers at Belfast's Victoria Square complex on Saturday to see the replica, which was made by local designer Mary-Rose McGrath.
"It was a joint effort," she told UTV. "I've a really brilliant team and we all got together yesterday, sat down and the minute Kate stepped out we were sketching, starting to cut fabrics, it was all go.
"I thought she was absolutely magnificent, such a beautiful girl and a fantastic style, timeless, elegant and everything a princess should be."
Copies of the dresses worn by Kate's bridesmaids are also featured in the display, alongside a replica of her tiara made by designer Lauren Fiona Rankin from Coleraine.
Meanwhile thousands of people across Northern Ireland held street parties to mark the historic occasion on Friday.
Some of the largest celebrations took place in Belfast, Londonderry, Newtownards and Templepatrick, as the country enjoyed a day of pageantry and fun, which will long be remembered.
The title of was Baron and Baronness Carrickergus was bestowed upon the newlyweds, leading to speculation that the Co Antrim town could be in line for a royal visit.
But for now the royal couple have decided to take a short break, departing by helicopter from the grounds of Buckingham Palace on Saturday morning.
They said they have decided to postpone their honeymoon with Prince William due to return to work next week.
After a hectic few months the couple have asked for privacy as they begin their married life.

A Lion and a Man chanced to travel in company through the forest. They soon began to quarrel, for each of them boasted that he and his kind were far superior to the other both in strength and mind.
Now they reached a clearing in the forest and there stood a statue. It was a representation of Heracles in the act of tearing the jaws of the Nemean Lion.
"See," said the man, "that's how strong we are! The King of Beasts is like wax in our hands!"
"Ho!" laughed the Lion, "a Man made that statue. It would have been quite a different scene had a Lion made it!"
Take that, subspace.

The National Museum of Natural History's Daniel Mulcahy Discovers Lost Species of Nightsnake in Mexico
After eluding scientists for nearly 80 years, the Clarion nightsnake (Hypsiglena ochrorhyncha unaocularus), a nocturnal reptilian species that was initially discovered in the first half of the 19th century and then struck from the scientific record, was rediscovered by National Museum of Natural History researcher Daniel Mulcahy. The new snake species is found exclusively on the Mexican island of Clarion and could have remained unknown to science if not for the team's efforts to solve the case surrounding its disappearance. Details of this discovery are published in the May 16 issue of PLOS ONE.
Mulcahy was inspired to begin the search for the Clarion nightsnake after studying the lone specimen in the American Museum of Natural History's collections. The snake's unique scale pattern and markings led the research team to believe it represented a new species that might still live on Clarion today. Mulcahy also uncovered the controversy surrounding the inclusion of this snake in the scientific record, and found that it appears to be the only species ever to be discarded due to a presumed locality error. Tests of the museum specimen's ancient DNA were inconclusive, prompting Mulcahy to collaborate with Juan Martínez-Gómez, an expert on the Revillagigedo Islands, and venture into the field using the naturalist William Beebe's writings as guide to find the lost nightsnake themselves.
"The rediscovery of the Clarion nightsnake is an incredible story of how scientists rely on historical data and museum collections to solve modern-day mysteries about biodiversity in the world we live in," said Mulcahy. "Proper identification is the first step toward conserving this snake, and we plan to continue monitoring this species to learn more about the role it plays in the delicate Clarion Island ecosystem."
Beebe first discovered the Clarion nightsnake in 1936 while on an expedition to western Mexico, where he wrote about its unusual coloration and found only a single specimen. During the next several decades, scientists were unable to detect any trace of the Clarion nightsnake in their field studies, leading them to negate the validity of Beebe's findings. In May 2013, Mulcahy and Martínez-Gómez's team at the Instituto de Ecología in Xalapa retraced Beebe's steps on Clarion in an effort to locate the lost snake species. After an intensive search, the team identified 11 snakes that matched Beebe's description, and conducted a series of DNA tests at the Smithsonian's Laboratories of Analytical Biology to confirm that the Clarion nightsnake, now recognized as a full species (Hypsiglena unaocualrus), is genetically distinct from other snakes located on the mainland of Mexico.

Dunedin council CEO won't resign
Relevant offers
The chief executive of the Dunedin City Council which is in the midst of a major fraud investigation is resolute about staying at the helm.
Dr Sue Bidrose said she would not follow two of her general managers out the door in the wake of the $1.5 million alleged fraud investigation.
Bidrose announced the alleged fraud within the council's Citifleet unit in June. Discrepancies were uncovered during a widespread review of accounting practices across departments.
The case is now in the hands of police.
Initial Deloitte investigations unravelled a vast network of vehicle transactions and a list of council vehicle movements through a network of buyers and subsequent owners over more than a decade.
Profits from the sale of 152 vehicles were allegedly siphoned off.
Citifleet team leader Brent Bachop died suddenly at the end of May, with his death referred to the coroner.
Last week, the council's general manager of infrastructure and networks, Tony Avery, quit his role while stressing he was not aware of or involved in the alleged fraud.
The resignation was followed this week by Kevin Thompson's departure. Thompson was the council's group manager of regulatory services.
Both Avery and Thompson had a responsibility for Citifleet within their respective roles.
But Bidrose, was appointed chief executive last November, will not be leaving.
Today, she said that within three months of taking up the role she began dealing with the inappropriate sale of surplus Citifleet vehicles to staff.
That was in February before the alleged fraud was detected as Bidrose went about having key accounting practices and other processes scrutinised.
She said Bachop had told her all car sales went through Turners Car Auctions.
"I didn't know staff could buy cars directly from council. When I found out I put a stop to it. It's not right.
"So, I'm comfortable I'm part of the change process - part of the solution," Bidrose said.
"I was employed on the basis of being a good public servant and really pushing a good public service ethic here at the council.
"I worked hard with Paul [former chief executive Paul Orders] to make changes to the budgets and across the companies. Before he left, he told me the next lot of changes needed to be made within the organisation.
"I'm doing exactly what council wants me to do."
Bidrose said past Audit NZ reports were pretty clear the council had not acted on previous audit office suggestions.
Documents obtained by Fairfax show Audit NZ expressed concern about inadequate controls over several internal processes, including verifying signatures of those authorised to sign invoices and purchase orders, independent review of creditor files, and controls of sensitive areas including sale of council assets to staff.
Documented council management response to the recommendations indicate the advice was largely rejected or ignored.
Bidrose said although Audit NZ had not ever flagged a major problem, it identified weaknesses.
"We didn't always do what we should have to fix those. Well, now we are."

Cincinnati fans help Ochocinco pack bags for New England
CINCINNATI, OH - After months of uncertainty, Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco has been traded to the New England Patriots. Football fans in Cincinnati responded to the news by banding together to assist Chad in packing his belongings for the move.
For years now, Ochocinco and Patriots head coach Bill Belichick have engaged in mutual admiration, and Cincinnati Bengal fans are glad that the relationship is finally ready to blossom. "It's been like watching Ross long for Rachel on Friends," said Bengal fan David Huesman. "I think it's way past time for those crazy kids to finally get together. That's why I showed up here at his house with a bunch of styrofoam peanuts, bubble wrap, and some old Chad Johnson jerseys he can use to wrap up breakables."
Fans lined up outside of Chad's home, holding cardboard boxes of various shapes and sizes. Others brought bungee cords, duct tape, and apartment guides for the greater Foxboro, Massachusetts area. Some fans went even further, offering up their trucks for transporting his belongings and providing him with a map showing all of the McDonald's restaurants that Chad will have available in his new city.
"I would say I'll miss him," said fan David Barksdale. "But as long as I have cable TV that shows reality programs, Chad will never be too far away. Even after he stops starring in shows where he is looking for love, he'll probably open up a bakery so he can be on the Food Network."
"It's good to know that I'll have help if I move," said Ochocinco upon learning of the effort. "Especially since I can't get any of my teammates to return my calls. Plus, they're not really good at heavy lifting anyway."

Comment posted Council now deploys online 'Spy Accounts' in covert surveillance of local critics by phill.
I think we need to see the link as Dr Douglas suggests, to come to a factual based opinion, one way or other.

- Thanks sandy
- I think the suggested advice from Ann Baird and Cllr Freeman is sound.
You're principles are well established Neil, but it would be no use pursuing this outwith the rules, as no doubt there will be consequences for such 'behaviour', which could otherwise harm your councillor intentions in general, frustrating as that may seem.

He should have the lowest claims in the whole of our Scottish Local authorities. Quite simply the least devoted/gutless councillor ever. Least controversial because he has never engaged in a debate.

Seminole Casino Coconut Creek Puts L-ACOUSTICS In The Pavilion
COCONUT CREEK, Florida — Miami Gardens-based Beachsound & Lighting, Inc. — now an official L-ACOUSTICS Certified Provider — reports that it has installed a KARA system at Seminole Casino in Coconut Creek, Florida.
The new system went into The Pavilion, a Sprung structure that was converted into an intimate 1,200-seat performance venue during the casino's recent $150M expansion project.
Today, artists performing in the showroom benefit from left and right arrays each comprised of eight KARA enclosures flanked by LF arrays of three SB18 subs. Below each KARA array is an additional stack of three SB28 for additional low-end reinforcement, while five coaxial 8XT are spaced out across the stage lip for front-fill. LA-RAKs loaded with LA8 amplified controllers power and process the entire system.
"We installed a V-DOSC system into Hard Rock Live Hollywood, another Seminole property, several years ago and they've been very happy with that investment," says Andre Serafini, president of Beachsound. "Following its proven success, they wanted to implement L-ACOUSTICS into The Pavilion for consistency between the venues, so a KARA system was our natural recommendation."
Steve Minick, production manager at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek, points out that system flexibility and rider acceptability were other key considerations. "We bring in a really wide variety of acts — from Vince Neil, Tesla and Adam Ant to Tony Orlando, Buddy Guy and Kool & The Gang — so we needed a system that could satisfy them all," he says. "KARA totally does. Since it went in, I haven't used any other rig in the room, and I don't intend to. The coverage is great, the clarity is phenomenal, and the power absolutely stomps! Our customers rave all the time about how they love what they're hearing, and I agree. This is one of the best sounding systems I've ever heard."
"Our choice to recommend and use L-ACOUSTICS for the Coconut Creek project went far beyond just sonic excellence and versatility," adds Jerrod Cring, Beachsound's head of systems integration. "We wanted a company that would work with us through the entire process, from system design to integration to training. In the end, L-ACOUSTICS with its standard of excellence was the best choice we could have made."Coincident with the recent installation at Seminole Casino, Beachsound increased its own inventory of L-ACOUSTICS enclosures for its rental division as well as completed the necessary training to officially become an L-ACOUSTICS Certified Partner.
"Beachsound and L-ACOUSTICS have enjoyed a long history together and we're thrilled that they've now joined our Certified Provider family," says Paul Tillman, L-ACOUSTICS US regional sales manager. "With the company's recent KARA, KIVA, ARCS II and LA-RAK inventory additions, we know that Andre and his outstanding team will continue to provide Florida and beyond with exceptional sound reinforcement services and support."
More information on The Pavilion at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek can be found online at www.seminolecoconutcreekcasino.com. Beachsound & Lighting, Inc. can likewise be visited on the Web at www.beachsound.com.
L-ACOUSTICS is a leading innovator and manufacturer of high-performance loudspeakers, amplifiers and signal processing devices for touring and installed sound markets. Known around the globe for pioneering and championing the modern line array loudspeaker concept with V-DOSC, the company has received numerous accolades for its K1, KUDO, KARA, KIVA, ARCS, XT coaxial loudspeaker systems and SB line of subwoofer enclosures, all powered and processed with the LA4 and LA8 amplified controllers in fulfillment of a "total system approach." Product distribution and customer service for the USA is handled by L-ACOUSTICS' subsidiary in Oxnard, California.

The analysis of "Rosetta" images in combination with photometric light curves yielded the position of the north rotational pole of Lutetia: ; . This gives an axial tilt of 96° (retrograde rotator), meaning that the axis of rotation is approximately parallel to the ecliptic, similar to the planet Uranus.

Addictive Pain
They say eyes are the windows to the soul, but all your eyes do when you look at me is take control, I am no noble man and could never be a saint – all I've got is this pen and on this paper it's my soul I paint.
I am a slave to the heart, wrapped up in mental chains – I let down my guard as your memory danced upon my brains. Staring at this blank wall as the paint starts to peel – these words could never really express how I feel.
Open my minds closet and let all my skeletons go, I need to be free from these secrets and let the world know. I once had a heart until I gave it to this woman, who then ripped it apart and had me doubting that I am human.
But this world is so cruel for a man like me, a man with a heart as sweet as candy. Even though I have been through love's wrath, I would never divert and roam on hate's path.
Knock on my door and look through my window, her love was more poisonous than a black widow. I swear that her heart bleeds ivory black, despite all this pain I always come back.
Mpho Lebohang Mokhele™
The inspiration behind this piece is a relationship I was once involved in which possessed a lot of unrequited love and emotional manipulation.
Like a shadow,
I shall follow you,
I shall move like the silent wind,
And touch you in my mind.
Like Majnun I shall love you,
Like Paris I shall feel you,
I shall cross every limit,
Like Achilles and reach the summit.
As for water waits the seashore,
I shall wait for you evermore,
Like Romeo I shall visit you stealthily,
To spend time with you, my angel lovely!
Like the moon I shall see you,
Cutting the clouds through,
Like the rain,
I shall wash away all your pain.
I shall act like a loyal friend,
And never pretend,
I shall be poignant like the setting sun,
Once afar you will be, my loved one.
An hour pass midnight, my curse is

I'm On The Deep Level With Love
But I Can't Let You Off The Chase
Cause I'm In A Race To The Sky
Trying To Make Peace Here And All
I'm Sorry If I'm A Disgrace
But Since I Was Forgiven
I Can't Seem To Forget
How You Saved Me
How It Seemed To Be
Oh How It Used To Be
With One Cross And Three Nails
Oh How Was I Was Forgiven
The Scars The Used Te Cut Me
The Pain That Used To Drown Me
The Strain That Used To Ache Me
I Used To Think How You Cared About Me
Oh How You Used Words To Control Me
Because Love Broke My Heart
It Broke It Wide Open
It Broke My Feelings
Torn My Emotions To Pieces
But When I Feel Defeated
And When I Hear You Speak
I Feel Enlightened
It Gives Me Peace
It Soothes My Soul
Provides Me Shelter
Keeps Me Calm
Because I Know Who Cares About Me
I Know Who Loves Me Unconditionally
No Matter What I've Done
No Matter How Bad I've Been
The Things I've Done
The Word's I've Said
Thank Goodness I'm Forgiven
Some Days Life Feels Just Perfect
Other Days It Feels It Ain't Working

And I'm Falling On My Knees
But Here I Am, Once Again

Cause They're Trying To Pull Me Into The Dark
Trying To Crush Me Beneath The Rock
But All I Gotta Do
All I Know I Need To Do
Is Drop On My Knees And Pray
Some Say That Being On Your Knees Is Weak
Some Say That Its The Most Vulnerable Position
But I Say Its Knowing Who Holds The Future
Being So Bold In Character
What Makes Him Trust In This Person
What Makes Him Have Courage In This
I Don't Know What I Can Tell You
Maybe Its The Things You Experience
The Pain And Sorrow You Feel Growing Up
The Hurt And Stress That Kick You To The Ground
But All I Gotta Do Is Tell You To Not Give Up
Don't Give In To What They Say
Sure You May Be Different From Them
Sure You Might Look Different From Them
But You Are Unique Just The Way You Are
Don't Let Them Tell You Otherwise
It dropped with disappointment,
I could almost hear it rip in half,
As if I had a piece of paper tearing apart in my heart,
His smile had a glint as if he was proud,
He knew the pain he caused as he fucked his silly whores,
Cheating, lying and crying,
Is what he thrived upon,
Adrenaline through his veins that he could not contain,
Was his only way to feel alive,
His chest buzzing with a craze,
There was no stopping his heartbreaking ways.
I dreampt us up late one night.
perfecting your features in my sleep.
softening the words left out of sight,
making valid this shallow leap
..of faith
..of lust
of pure star dust.
the planets align for you, my love.
like a snake in a cage
you escaped in a second.
you toy with my rage
until your master beckons.
she is tall and bitter
with hair dark as depression.
no wonder you are with her.
she is a picture of perfection.
yet here i am, dreaming
of the times spent in bed.
where you had me believing
it wasn't all in my head.
Dear if I could only tell you
How you make me feel
I sure would do
How I want your embrace
How I want to hold your face
Dear if I could show you
What I can give you
I will do
How I want to make you mine
Be with you till the end of time
Dear if I could just love you
Knowing I'll never feel blue
I sure would do
Peace among humans is a must
But all we share is a look of disgust
Disrespect and lack of trust
Peace among humans is there
So little, to find is very rare
But nobody seems to care
Peace among humans is wanted
But everyone is simply blinded
By hatred and frighten
Peace among humans is desired
From everyone who inspired
Other with love whom conspired

Passion and Paradise (1989)
No critic reviews yet...
No critic reviews yet...
Movie InfoThe four-hour TV movie Passion and Paradise traces the rise and fall of real-life British playboy Alfred de Marigny (Armand Assante). Little better than a gigolo, de Marigny finds himself in the Bahamas during World War II, where he romances the daughter (Catherine Mary Stewart) of fabulously wealthy Sir Harry Oakes (Rod Steiger). None of the "right people" can stomach de Marigny, but they're stuck with him once he marries Oakes' daughter. During the next few years, de Marigny manages to antagonize the Duke of Windsor (Andrew Ray), who is governor of the Bahamas; he also alienates local businessmen and infuriates a group of mobsters who want to set up a gambling casino in Nassau. As Part One of Passion and Paradise draws to a close, Sir Harry Oakes is murdered--and Alfred de Marigny is the most convenient (though not most likely) suspect. Part Two opens with the murder of Oakes in 1943. The higher-ups of the Bahama Islands sincerely hope that de Marigny is the killer, if only to get rid of the dreadful man. So anxious are certain parties to hang de Marigny that an official conspiracy to cover up vital evidence takes shape. De Marigny's only hope for salvation is an American private eye (Wayne Rogers). Filmed in Jamaica, Passion and Paradise painted so damning a portrait of Bahaman high society that several scenes (including most of those featuring the Duke of Windsor) had to be rewritten and reshot before the film's British television release. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi … More

My Deep, Dark SecretI run fast and hardMy Deep, Dark Secret by Mourning-Star98
A darkness following me everywhere
A truth unlike any other
My deep, dark secret
My future looks bleak
For no one can know
This secret I keep
My deep dark secret
A memory never forgotten
A twisted smile imprinted in my mind
I lock away this horror
My deep, dark secret
A gold locket is all I have left
And the flames behind my eye lids
A truth no one can know
My deep, dark secret
The smell of smoke forever fills my lungs
The scream of terror forever fills my ears
The wall I put up is crumbling
My deep, dark secret
My sanity is slipping
I can no longer tell past from present
Soon everyone will know
My deep, dark secret
There was No ResponseThere was a moment in her lifeThere was No Response by SoundSaviour
when she realized that
written words were better then
having to speak
Unknowing that her
words that would make marks
a somewhat of a scar
typing on a keyboard
or with a calligraphy pen
She wrote on all she had
but in her head
A vocabulary grew in her brain
Like cancer
searching for a another way
than growing smaller
her oxymoron
was replaced it with a goodbye
writing her final words
she mailed her note on
the back of her passport
it read

The Blaze Within The HazeWithin the cloud, a blaze.The Blaze Within The Haze by TinTinHo
It lingers 'bove the darkened air
And glides amidst the haze.
Pierce the passing phase
Of melting breath that is the flare
Within the cloud, a blaze.
Dodge the torrid blade that only graze
The head outside the glare
And glides amidst the haze.
A hidden hazard emits rays
That scorches through the lair.
Within the cloud, a blaze.
The mist whispers a mute potent phrase
Of death to masses that seize care,
And glides amidst the haze.
The cloud shrouds and so delays
The soul to snap in seamless snare.
Within the cloud, a blaze
That glides amidst the haze.
ParkI'm often reminded of a placePark by Oteresk
One that is long forgotten
I vaguely remember it's existence
I wonder why that is?
I remember the cold brisk air
The colors of the street lamps
A leisurely stroll through a park
But why do I long for this feeling again?
I believe I know one reason
It's a bit ridiculous to think this
But I believe I'm thinking of this place yet again because of someone
Someone that I want to hold close
I want to let that person into my mind
I want them to know the comfort of this park
We could laugh, we could cry
All that would matter is that she would be here
SheShe plays with your heart,She by bluerest49
Pulling at the strings;
Luring you in,
Then clipping your wings.
Taking the love,
That resides in your soul;
Warming your skin,
But burning a hole.
Facing the sun,
Reflecting its light;
If only she knew,
You're blind in the night.
How terrible a thing,
To feel numb in your core;
Unaware that she's meaningless,
That you deserve so much more.
I can't understand,
How it could be.
You want to be loved,
But the one you want is she.

Such a simple thingStraining my eyes,Such a simple thing by Drum-Styx
I search through the fog.
Though still I am blind,
It has been so long.
I've climbed to your balcony.
I've waited in the wings.
I've wracked my mind beyond compare,
Though it's such a simple thing.
You gave me yes, you gave me no,
Yet you never made a sound.
I was so high up,
Aloft in the clouds,
But your wander glance,
Had me crashing back down.
I do not know what makes you so.
No, I don't know why it is.
The way you plague my mind with madness.
It's an endless game I cannot win.
But now I see just who you are,
Is who you've always been.
Perhaps it's me who's seen a change,
A troubled sea that flows within.
Run away with meCome hither to a placeRun away with me by MrsDerekSouza
Floating amidst space
It's somewhere nary can trace
Run away with me
This place is infinite
Somewhere thou'll covet
Happiness has nary a limit
Here tis divine beauty
Here all thy dreams shall come true
Find solutions to any issue
There is nothing here taboo
Here in the world of benevolence
Here in complete brilliance
Thee can have omnipotence
Never once shall thy have hindrance
For here we have no treachery
Neither slavery nor poverty
We have no need for such cruelty
We never treat people so badly
For we live in a wonderful place
Our world is forever a solstice
A happy world of lightness
Happily bathing in brightness
For we never need to sleep
Rampant situations don't exist
And they are never missed
I hope thee are getting the gist
We only live here happy
We have no need for brute force
In love there is never divorce
Everything takes a happy course
Here in our beautiful world

My little story will make thee sigh
A divine land thou will go tonight
A land that's surely a sight
The meadow flows in the breeze
Its beauty can be such a tease
Be sure to watch where ye has stepped
There are secrets this sea of green has kept
Small people with fluttering wings and glittering dust
To them, meeting you is a must
Their laughter sounds of tinkling bells
By the second, more come out of their shells
Thou begins to giggle with glee
As more come out to play with thee
A thundering noise thou begins to hear
Do not fret, there's no need to shed a tear
A galloping horse with a horn comes this way
Looking for a rider for the day
He stops in front of thee
No sign shows he will flee
The small people showed benevolence
Riding such a creature may at first seem tense
Be sure to hold on tight
The horse spreads its wings, ready to take flight
Into the infinite sky you go
Such a view can never be seen from below

Conducting the autumn rainfall
I watch my tears paint the sky
Follow my whispers
Sing to my fears
Dance to my heartbeat as the starlight disappears
In this silent place
We make fine music my dear
Take my hand, follow me
Chaos will persevere
Watch the oceans burn
Horizon setting fire
Follow the footsteps of the wounded sunset
Gravity's deepest desires
Swim in my silence
Follow the chants of my dreams
Floating past a frozen time
Into my sweet, sweet screams
I thought I let my memories drown
As ye cut out the night
Thy sins could be the treacherous divine
My conscience already died tonight
Open the door and let thineself in
Start at the end and end at the beginning
Down the meadow of bleeding senses
Keep thy nightmares still
The echoes in this hollow space
Are very quick to kill
Lying to the truth
We seek hidden fantasies
But see a dream within a dream
