Articles about reggae music, reviews, interviews, reports and more...
Belgian reggae band Pura Vida aka The Lost Ark Band – led by multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter Bregt De Boever – have previously worked with well-known heavy as lead roots singers and groups such as The Congos, Prince Alla, Sylford Walker and Congo Ashanti Roy.
Now, they've teamed up with a completely different artist – the obscure pub rock reggae singer and musician G.T. Moore, who has played with giants such as Van Morrison, Dr. John and Johnny Nash.
If you have ever searched the vinyl bins at a record store you might have stumbled upon Move It On Up or Reggae Blue released by G.T. Moore and The Reggae Guitars in the mid 70's. I know I have, and I never bothered to give them a listen.
But maybe I should have. Because G.T. Moore's new reggae project with Pura Vida is a punch in the face. In a good way. G.T. Moore has a tone reminiscent of a folk singer. He has no rush and his voice is scared, honest and rugged.
'Seek the Kingdom First' is musically in the same vein as previous Pura Vida material, i.e. highly influenced by Lee Perry's heydays at his legendary Black Ark studio. It's ethereal and swirling and you can almost feel the water drops slowly finding its way down the veins of the leaf in the humid jungle.
The album collects six vocal cuts and two dub versions. The majority of the tracks run over five minutes and they are in no hurry to finish. The music is slow, mellow and beautiful.
This album is currently only available on digital platforms, but previous Pura Vida material have been pressed on vinyl too, so this might change if there's a demand.

A Republican senator who has been blocking President Barack Obama's nominee to head the Transportation Security Administration complains that Democrats are trying to rush a vote on the nominee without adequate debate.
Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina has placed a hold on the nomination of former FBI agent and police detective Erroll Southers.
DeMint said Wednesday that he is concerned that Southers would let TSA screeners join a labor union.

The recipe is easy to make and delicious to eat. I could see adding a little bit a leftover meat to the salad and having a complete meal. I liked the addition of the almonds.
This is fabulous. I've been looking for a new way to prepare quinoa and had to try this one. The butter/sugar/almond combination gives it a nice, sweet crunch. I didn't have white wine vinegar, so I used seasoned vinegar (for sushi rice) and it came out just fine. Delicious!
Easy and very good!

Joe Nieuwendyk showing faith in Stars
GM makes no moves before trade deadline, sticks with team that's won four straight
During his three seasons as general manager, Joe Nieuwendyk has shown us more than once that he's not adverse to making tough decisions.
And he was more than willing to do it again Monday as the National Hockey League's trade deadline approached.
But Nieuwendyk opted to stand pat and see if the Stars can make the playoffs for the first time since 2008 after no team overwhelmed him with an offer for Steve Ott and the Stars have won four consecutive games.
Good for him.
"We have a responsibility to put the best team on the ice right now to challenge and make the playoffs," said Nieuwendyk, "and we didn't want to risk moving anything that wouldn't help us going into the future.
"This team has shown it's committed to each other and it's going to fight to get into the playoffs."
It will be a difficult task for the Stars, currently eighth in the Western Conference.
Too many teams are competing for the final two spots for Dallas to back into the playoffs. The Stars will have to earn it.
The Stars are just three points behind division-leading Phoenix, but they're also only six points ahead of last-place Anaheim. Of the Stars' final 19 games, Edmonton is their only opponent currently with a losing record. Dallas will play the Oilers twice.
They play Vancouver three times and have seven other games against teams at least 10 games over .500, including Wednesday night's game against Pittsburgh at American Airlines Center.
Just so you know, in the past nine seasons, no team has made the playoffs with fewer than 91 points. The past two seasons, it has taken 97 points.
Much work remains.
Dallas, Edmonton and Minnesota are the only Western Conference clubs to miss the playoffs each of the past three seasons.
"I know we have a tough road ahead, but it is a message to this team that we do believe in them and this group has shown some resiliency," Nieuwendyk said.
"There's been a real commitment to playing for one another and becoming a real team in the last 2-3 weeks."
A week ago, the Stars had most of us convinced Nieuwendyk should trade anyone and everyone because of their consistently lethargic play. Then, they started playing like they cared.
Now, they've won four consecutive games for the first time since November. A month from now we might look back at their win Sunday afternoon over Vancouver, the Western Conference's best team, as the victory that propelled them into the playoffs.
The Stars rallied from a 2-0 second-period deficit to defeat Vancouver, 3-2, in overtime behind goals from Mike Ribeiro, Michael Ryder and Loui Eriksson.
"We didn't want to make his job easy," Ribeiro said of Nieuwendyk . "We wanted him to have to make some tough decisions."
Vancouver had been 26-0-0 when leading after two periods this season. Since 2006, Vancouver is 93-0-4 when leading after two periods.
The Stars won because they followed Glen Gulutzan's request to play a simple, tactical game with energy and effort. If the Stars will consistently play the way Gulutzan wants them to play, the wins and losses will take care of themselves.
More Dallas Stars coverage
Can't get enough hockey? ESPNDallas.com has all the latest on the Stars from Richard Durrett. Blog
"Three weeks ago, it was hard to figure out what our team was all about. We didn't look like a team," Nieuwendyk said. "We were having a lot of difficulty, but it has been encouraging in the absence of Jamie Benn (thigh) and Brenden Morrow (back) that Ribeiro, Ryder and Eriksson have provided us what a No. 1 line should provide."
Nieuwendyk has a plan for putting an annual contender together, and you can see some of it coming together.
He wants puck-moving defensemen capable of starting an attack, which is why Trevor Daley and Alex Goligoski, both of whom had a key assist against Vancouver, have received contract extensions this season.
And he wants players capable of controlling the puck, as well as those physical enough to go into the corners and get it back when it's been lost.
Clearly, the Stars need more pieces because, as currently comprised, they're not nearly good enough to win without a high-intensity level. They've proven that to us time and time again this season, frustrating Nieuwendyk and Gulutzan numerous times.
But the Stars have apparently found a rhythm at just the right time. Their confidence is buoyed by the imminent returns of forwards Benn and Morrow.
There's a good chance Benn will play against Pittsburgh, and Morrow will return next week.
Perhaps that'll be enough to justify Nieuwendyk's faith in the Stars and push them into the playoffs.

JPMorgan selling physical commodities business
JPMorgan said on Wednesday that it has made a deal to sell its physical commodities business for $3.5 billion as regulators weigh whether to restrict banks' ability to control power plants, warehouses, and oil refineries.
JPMorgan said on Wednesday that it has made a deal to sell its physical commodities business for $3.5 billion as regulators weigh whether to restrict banks' ability to control power plants, warehouses, and oil refineries.
If it's approved by regulators, the deal would put the commodities business in the hands of energy and commodities trading company Mercuria Energy Group Ltd.
Big banks have long profited from price swings in metals, energy, and other commodities. But some had branched out into owning physical facilities. Last summer JPMorgan said that the possibility of new regulations on whether banks could continue to do that was a factor behind its decision to consider selling some of its physical commodities business, which includes metals and energy assets. The Federal Reserve in January said it would consider new regulations.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. said Wednesday that after the sale it will still provide traditional banking activities in the commodities markets. It will also continue to make markets, provide liquidity and risk management and offer advice to global companies and institutions.
The deal, which is not expected to have a material impact on JPMorgan's earnings, is targeted to close in the third quarter.
JPMorgan shares rose 24 cents to $58.30 on Wednesday. Its shares have risen about 19 percent over the past year.

At halftime: Colombia lead after Rodriguez's wondergoal
Jun 28, 2014, 4:53 PM EDT
James Rodriguez is the difference between both teams at the half, as his stunning volley has given Colombia a 1-0 lead.
Los Cafeteros have dominated the opening 45 minutes, as Uruguay look lackluster going forward without the banned Luis Suarez in attack.
Rodriguez struck in the 27th minute, as he collected a header by controlling it on his chest, then volleyed the ball towards the top corner as Muslera got his fingertips to it but couldn't keep it out.
That is the difference between the two South American nations, as Colombia is 45 minutes away from its first-ever berth in the World Cup quarterfinals.
FOLLOW LIVE: Soccerly's real-time match center
27′: Rodriguez takes one touch on his chest, then smashes in an unstoppable volley which Muslera can only tip onto the bar before it crosses the line. Phenomenal strike.
Other key moments
6′: Cuadrado smashes a free kick from distance which is deflected towards goal by a Colombian player but goes over.
11′: After a surging run, Zuniga smashes a shot at goal which Muslera gathered at the second attempt.
27′: Rodriguez volleys in to put Colombia. What. A. Goal.
40′: Tempers begin to flare as veterans Mario Yepes and Diego Forlan clash in the penalty box. Things calm down, but this could get ugly.
Questions for the second half
How will Uruguay change things up?
Perhaps bringing on Gaston Ramirez to get things flowing in midfield would help La Celeste create more chances. So far, Cavani and Forlan have looked isolated up top.
How many can Colombia get?
You get the feeling that if Colombia go 2-0 up, the floodgates will open and this could get embarrassing. Rodriguez and Jackson Martinez are giving Uruguay the runaround.

Topic: Grasses or Grass-like
Title: Native grasses for horses
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:I have 7ac with big and little bluestem. I'm told big is bad. And my horse eats ground veg and not the bluestem. So I'd love to replant the entire tract with something for the horse, deer, and native critters but don't know what. Was suggested to me tuffalo. But I didn't know if that was good for hill country land, and/or the native critters. Any advice? Thanks.
ANSWER:Bouteloua dactyloides (buffalograss) is considered to be one of the most nutritious of the prairie grasses according to the Forages of Texas - North Central from the Texas AgriLife Research Center and Extension Service at Stephenville. Turffalo is a cultivar of buffalograss developed by Texas Tech University and Frontier Hybrids Engineered Turfgrass. The Wildflower Center has had a plot of Turfallo that we have been testing now for a couple of years. You can see an assessment of it in the answers to previous Mr. Smarty Plants questions in 2008 and 2009.
Your best bet might be to go with a mixture of native grasses rather than try to create a monoculture. Here are other native grasses that Forages of Texas - North Central considers highly palatable for livestock:
Tripsacum dactyloides (eastern gamagrass)
Sorghastrum nutans (Indiangrass)
Bouteloua curtipendula (sideoats grama)
Their assessment of Andropogon gerardii (big bluestem) does not list palatability as one of its assets, rather it is recommended for wildlfe habitat.
You can read more information about horses and native grasses in "Are You Feeding Your Horse Like a Cow?" A cautionary note—although most native grasses are desirable to feed your horses, there are some grasses and other plants, both native and non-native, that you should avoid for your pasture. The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation has compiled a list of Poisonous Plant Considerations.
Native American Seeds in Junction, Texas offers a good variety of native grass seeds and grass seed mixes for sale.

Greg Baranco gets his first car, again
Send this to a friend
For his 65th birthday, a respected Buckhead businessman got an unexpected surprise — a replica of his first car.
It was a pinnacle moment for car enthusiast Gregory Baranco, who owns Mercedes-Benz of Buckhead with his wife, Juanita. It seemingly marked his 50-year love affair with automobiles and the culmination of a successful career that he once was told would be limited due to his race.
The morning of March 8, roughly 170 employees gathered at the dealership at 2799 Piedmont Road to celebrate being named "Best of the Best Dealer" for 2012 by Mercedes-Benz USA. It was the first time the dealership had earned the recognition, given to dealers that excel in customer service, sales and parts operations.
In the corner, hidden under a black cloth, was a 1959 white Chevy Impala with a red interior — nearly identical to Greg's first car that he bought in 1963 at 15 years old.
But, surrounded by the excitement of the event and the award, he had no idea what laid underneath.
"He's too overwhelmed with everybody else," said Rob Teitelbaum, area manager for Mercedes-Benz USA, who delivered the award to the crowd. "He always says, 'It's not about me, it's about the team.' "
After the honor was bestowed, Juanita said: "Mr. Baranco, we have a present for you."
When the car was revealed, Greg shook his head in disbelief, circling the vehicle several times, hands grasped over his heart. He stood there speechless for awhile, looking underneath the hood and opening the car doors to peer inside.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you," he finally said to the team that restored the car.

Consumer outlook on housing up, personal finances not
Send this to a friend
- Jeff Clabaugh
- Broadcast/Web Reporter- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
A Fannie Mae telephone survey of about 1,000 Americans finds a divide between expectations about the housing market and expectations about their own personal finances.
In the March National Housing Survey, 48 percent of respondents think home prices will rise in the next year, and 26 percent think now is a good time to sell a home, nearly twice the share from a year ago.
The share of respondents who would buy if they were going to move fell 4 percentage points to 64 percent.
However, 21 percent expect their own personal financial situation to get worse over the next 12 months, up 4 percent from February. And 32 percent reported significantly higher household expenses than a year ago.

Dressed to thrill! Juliette Lewis steals the spotlight in garish red ensemble while Dakota Johnson pales in comparison
as the pair rock out at Petty Fest
Juliette Lewis certainly knows how to ensure all eyes are on her in a room full of celebrities.
On Thursday night, the kooky singer and actress dressed up in the most garish outfit she could
get her hands on as she headed to the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles for Petty Fest.
The evening of live music celebrating American musician Tom Petty featured a host of stars - including actress Dakota Johnson, model and rocker Rod Stewart's daughter Ruby Stewart, actor Danny Masterson, Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea and Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine.
Scroll down for video
Red-blooded woman! Juliette Lewis was impossible to miss in her garish ensemble as she made her way into LA's El Rey Theatre on Thursday night for Petty Fest
Juliette, who called it quits with her band Juliette And The Licks in 2009 before embarking on a
solo singing career, delighted fans as she took to the mic for an energetic performance during
the festivities.
The 40-year-old was impossible to miss in the crowd in her fire engine red outfit, consisting of stockings, knee-high patterned boots and a printed mini-dress featuring a fishnet-style high neckline.
She wore her long dark brown tresses down in a messy, unkempt style, while she added a matching pop of red to her lips in contrast with her otherwise neutral covering of dewy make-up.
Large decorative gold hoop earrings adorned her ears.
Contrasting style: Fifty Shades Of Grey star Dakota Johnson (right) was dressed modestly in comparison as she made her way into the event with friend Ruby Stewart - the model daughter of rocker Rod Stewart
Rock'n'roll chic: The 40-year-old donned an eye-catching bright red ensemble consisting of stockings, patterned knee-high boots and a printed mini-dress featuring a fishnet-style high neckline, while she slipped on a navy blue jacket as she left the venue
Leaving the event some time later, the star slipped on a knee-length navy blue jacket to keep warm, while she carried a knitted black tote bag featuring a skull and crossbones design as well as a rather glamorous glossy photo of herself.
In stark contrast, Dakota - the daughter of actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith - played it safe
in black jeans, matching ankle boots, a nude-coloured tee and brown leather jacket.
The Fifty Shades Of Grey star had a huge smile on her face as she made her way into the bash with her pal.
Working up a sweat: The singer and actress wore her long brunette locks down in a messy, unkempt style, red lipstick contrasting with her fresh, dewy make-up, while she was carrying a glossy glamour photo of herself along with a skull and crossbones bag
Natural beauty: The 24-year-old wore her blonde-brown tresses down in a straight style, with her pretty face framed by a wispy fringe, rose-coloured hues on her cheeks and lips
The 24-year-old wore her blonde-brown locks down in a straight style, with a wispy fringe framing her nicely made-up features, which were in complementary rose-coloured hues.
Ruby showed off her fashion-forward style in form-fitting denim overalls that were cuffed at the ankles, brown lace-up calf-length boots, a white T-shirt and near-matching denim shirt, which was unbuttoned and rolled up one or two turns at the sleeves.
The 26-year-old appeared to be more or less make-up-free, her flawless complexion needing no enhancement, while she wore her long platinum mane in a poker-straight style with a centre part.
Biker chic: The actress daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith looked ready to rock in black jeans, matching ankle boots, a nude T-shirt and brown leather jacket
It's all in the jeans: Ruby showed off her own unique style in denim overalls cuffed at the ankles, brown lace-up boots, a white T-shirt and near-matching denim shirt, which was unbuttoned and turned up at the sleeves, her long golden locks worn in a sleek, straight style
Also in attendance was new dad Danny, who welcomed his first child, daughter Fianna, on February 14 with wife Bijou Phillips.
Enjoying a night off from diaper duty, the Men At Work star looked dapper in his formal attire, with no apparent sign of any pesky spit-up.
The 38-year-old opted for smart light grey dress pants and a matching waistcoat, paired with a similarly-hued shirt, blue tie, shiny black shoes and a dark grey blazer.
The doting dad appeared a little glassy-eyed from his no-doubt sleepless nights, though the avid DJ wasn't about to let that get in the way of him enjoying the festivities.
Rare night out: Danny Masterson took a night off from daddy duty to attend the evening of live music celebrating American musician Tom Petty, though he looked a little glassy-eyed from his no-doubt sleepless nights with seven-week-old daughter Fianna

Florida Gov. Rick Scott really had a bang-up debate Tuesday. In addition to energetically dodging the question of whether he knew that he delayed an execution so that Attorney General Pam Bondi could attend a political fundraiser, he showed off his concern for low-wage workers and in-depth knowledge of economic issues. Or, more specifically, he showed off his total lack of concern and in-depth knowledge.
The question was "Do you support the concept of a minimum wage?" Which is a question that has to be asked of Republican politicians, since many of them don't. Scott's answer was a glib "sure." It looked like he was ready to keep talking, but the follow-up question beat him to the punch: "What should it be?"
"How would I know? I mean, the private sector decides wages.
Answering this, Scott briefly let his debate face drop in his sheer irritation at being asked what the minimum wage should be. "How would I know?" Gosh, I don't know, you're the governor, you do have a say in these things. It's not crazy to expect you to have an opinion, possibly even an informed one.
Also, "sure," Scott supports the concept of a minimum wage, but the reason he doesn't know what the minimum wage should be is that "the private sector decides wages." Except that in the case of the minimum wage, the private sector does not decide, so it seems like Scott may have been missing the point here. Or, more likely, was knocked off his talking points by an unexpected framing of the minimum wage question, and didn't bother making a whole lot of sense as he scrambled to get back to the talking points.

Republican governors have really been on a minimum wage roll, from Scott Walker's "I don't think it serves a purpose" to Chris Christie's "I'm tired of hearing about the minimum wage," and Scott's "How should I know" certainly belongs on the greatest hits list.

EPA Requiring BMW to Correct Fuel Economy Labels for Four Mini Cooper Vehicles
Washington — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is revising estimates for four 2014 BMW Mini Cooper vehicles to ensure consumers are given accurate fuel economy values.
The EPA performed a fuel economy audit on the BMW Mini Cooper and obtained values that differed from those BMW submitted to EPA for certification. With EPA oversight, BMW conducted new emissions and fuel economy testing, and EPA conducted its own testing at its National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan. As a result of this subsequent testing, EPA is requiring BMW to relabel four of its 2014 Mini Cooper models with lower fuel economy values.
The specific changes to fuel economy stickers are listed in the table below.
2014 BMW Mini Cooper Fuel Economy Value Updates
"Fuel economy values matter to consumers and automakers," said Christopher Grundler, director of EPA's Office of Transportation and Air Quality. "To provide consumers with the most accurate, reliable and repeatable fuel economy values, we are continuing to strengthen our oversight to ensure fair competition among automakers."
EPA's National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory conducts fuel economy testing on vehicles each year to ensure that their performance matches the mileage and emissions data automakers submit to EPA. These audits are part of the oversight program that helps ensure all carmakers are following the same procedures for calculating mileage estimates. The oversight program also helps the EPA verify that vehicles on the road meet national tailpipe emission standards to protect public health and the environment.
More information on today's update: www.epa.gov/fueleconomy/updates.htm
Updated fuel economy values are also available on the joint EPA and the Department of Energy website: www.fueleconomy.gov.

Guerilla Games: No plans for 3D support for Killzone: Shadow Fall
Guerilla Games has revealed that they have no plans to build 3D support into Killzone: Shadow Fall.
Killzone 3 was one of the games leading the 3D charge alongside Gran Turismo 5 and Motorstorm: Apocalypse but it seems that 3D will not be pursued as strongly with the PS4, at least as far as Guerilla are concerned.
In response to a fan question on Twitter the Dutch studio stated, "We currently don't have any plans for 3D support, but I'll pass your request along to the team."
The PS4 also does not support 3D films at the moment so it seems that, for now at least, 3D is not one of Sony's main concerns for the PS4.
Thanks Eurogamer.

With the Super Bowl days out, Valentine's Day under a month away and Mardi Gras in the calendar's distance, New Orleans is filling up with travelers looking to take advantage of a little football, the romance that the city brings and its insatiable spirit for its biggest celebration of the year. New Orleans can be a dream this time of year, but booking a hotel in the Big Easy can be more of a nightmare. If the wrought-iron balconies and the abundance of beads are pulling you to New Orleans in the coming months, here are a few tried and tested tips and tricks for booking a hotel as easy as can be in the Big Easy.
Book Early: There are some cities in this world that if you don't book your hotel early, you will have a hard time coming up with options a few weeks before your trip. New Orleans is one of those cities where constant festivals and events tend to bring in the masses. When I booked my hotel for New Orleans last spring, I waited until just a few weeks from my trip. I quickly discovered there were slim and expensive pickings for me, mostly because a festival was also taking place. If you want to save money and also stay where you actually want to, you need to book early for New Orleans.
Hold The Bourbon For Light Sleepers: For first timers to New Orleans, Bourbon Street tends to be this fanaticized thoroughfare where truly anything goes. However it is not always where you want your hotel to be. If you are looking to rest up at night, you might want to hold the Bourbon, or at least try staying a fair distance away from the street. While parts of Bourbon are quieter, the heart of the street can be noisy morning, noon and night. Steer clear if you are a light sleeper.
Consider Going Beyond Staying in the French Quarter: For a traveler looking to cut their costs on a visit to New Orleans, staying in the French Quarter is not always budget friendly. While it is hard to resist the charm of those wrap-around balconies and street musicians, there are other neighborhoods in this city with lodging. The Garden District for example offers smaller guesthouses and bed and breakfasts for those romantic trips for Valentine's Day. If you in town on business or looking for more standard hotel rooms, the Central Business District has a wide selection of options. While the French Quarter is appealing to stay in, it can either be hit or miss as to what sort of accommodations you will get for the price.
Pony up For Parking and WiFi: If you need to park your car at your hotel in New Orleans, this can present additional costs for the traveler. Parking can be hard to come by, especially in those tight corners of the French Quarter. While there are parking garages, specifically around Canal Street, you should anticipate this cost in your hotel room rate. Many hotels have pay parking or valet that you can use instead, but it will cost you. Also on my hotel searching for New Orleans last spring, I found it difficult to find hotels with free WiFi. That is another expense that you might have to factor into your hotel budget, if you need WiFi in such a lively city that is.
Expect Minimum Stay Requirements At Some Boutique Hotels: As you go deeper into the French Quarter, you are more likely to encounter minimum stay requirements. Just as there are cities that require you to book your hotel well in advance, there are also those cities with an abundance of hotels with minimum stay requirements. Before planning the dates of your trip, be sure to do a check of these properties' policies with minimum stay requirements. Generally they are more boutique-type hotels. You may have booked your plane ticket and have a hotel in mind only to find that your dates don't match their minimum stay policies.

RED BUD, Ill. — The Mega Millions winners — at least three of them — stayed out of sight. The losers, who could number 100 million, had plenty to say Saturday about losing out on the world's largest-ever lottery jackpot and their dashed dreams of colossal wealth.
Journalists descended on convenience stores in Illinois and Maryland and Kansas lottery officials proudly proclaimed they sold winning tickets in the $640 million world record-breaking Mega Millions jackpot. The winners will earn $213 million before taxes. Three other ticket holders became millionaires.
But on the street, online, and outside the stores where the winners had purchased their tickets, Americans grumbled about hopes that were raised, and then vanished. And they mused about what they would have done with the money.
"What do I do with this useless lottery ticket now?" Laurel Ashton Brooks of Greensboro, N.C., asked on Twitter.
As the jackpot got bigger by the hour on Thursday and Friday, Americans had snapped up tickets while dreaming of quitting jobs, paying off debts, building hospitals, buying an island. On Saturday, they took to Twitter and Facebook to bemoan their lost, razor-thin chance at millions.
"I knew that when I bought the ticket, that I wouldn't win. But I did it anyhow," said Sean Flaherty, a video game tester in New York City. "The whole notion of 'what if' still has some currency with me."
All told, Americans spent nearly $1.5 billion for a chance to hit the jackpot, which amounts to a $462 million lump sum and around $347 million after federal tax withholding. With the jackpot odds at 1 in 176 million, it would cost $176 million to buy up every combination. Under that scenario, the strategy would win $171 million less if your state also withholds taxes.
Illinois' winner used a quick pick — an automatically generated set of digits — to select the winning numbers at a convenience store in the small town of Red Bud, south of St. Louis, Illinois Lottery spokesman Mike Lang said. The winning numbers also sold at a 7-Eleven in Milford Mill, Md., north of Baltimore.
"It's just unbelievable. Everyone is wanting to know who it is," said Denise Metzger, manager of the Motomart where Illinois' winning ticket was sold. "All day yesterday I was selling tickets and I was hoping someone from Red Bud would win. Never in my wildest dreams did I think this. I'm just tickled pink."
Paramedic Dan Parrott walked away from the store with $5 in winnings after checking numbers on his $40 worth of tickets. That won't pay for the new house, new car and the new ambulances he'd decided the jackpot would help him buy in this farming community of 3,700 about 40 miles south of St. Louis.
"I'd love to have all that money, but with all of that money comes responsibility," he said outside the store. "But it'd still be awesome."
James Sitzes emerged from the MotoMart where his check of his six plays flopped. "I bought them at the right place," he shrugged. "I just didn't have the right numbers."
"I've been thinking for years what I'd do with all that money," said Sitzes, 70. He'd pay off the house, invest the rest and give away his small plating shop.
In Maryland, TV cameras descended upon the 7-Eleven where the state's winning ticket was purchased. The harried manager repeatedly said "No interviews" to reporters pressing for details as customers pushed through the media crush for their morning.
Nyeri Murphy, holding two scratch-off tickets, said she normally plays Powerball but drove to a nearby county to buy $70 worth of Mega Millions tickets this week. "I should have bought them here," she said.

By 2020 75% of Bulgarians To Use Internet and E-Services
Bulgaria's Government approved a plan for the construction of next generation broadband internet infrastructure, reports Dnes.bg.
It must provide access to internet with speed of 30+ Mb/s to the entire population.
At least 50% of the households and 80% of the businesses must have access to speeds of 100 Mb/s by 2020, according to the plan.
The Government expects that within the next six years, the share of population using internet and electronic services will reach 75%.
Data of the National Statistics Institute as of December 2013, shows that 53.7% of the households in Bulgaria had access to internet. In spite the 2.8% growth, compared to 2012, the country is still at the last position for internet access in the EU.
At the same time Bulgaria is at the 18-th position for internet speed in the world, shows data of NetSpaceIndex.

Since the NBA started recording blocks and steals in 1973, there have only been four officially recorded quadruple-doubles. Alvin Robertson, Hakeem Olajuwon, and David Robinson are the other three players to record one. There have been very few performances in which a player has come close to getting a quadruple-double.
