Based on the description of the event, I was expecting more of a Mardi Gras theme, such as decor, beads, etc. The music was excellent and the buffet was good. It didn't feel like a special celebration, just another night at the Canyon Club. I think if they had decorated (there was no theme decoration at all) and made you feel more like you were at a Mardi Gras celebration it would have been a much better event.

Preston Smith is master of many genres of music, and very at home on the stage. His easygoing style and charisma were perfect for the Blues and New Orleans style music that he favored us with. His band was top flight also, playing multiple sets...continued

Music was great but the advertisement for Mardi Gras is false. Very poor buffet !

Disappointing. Smith had lots of musicians and they were not working well together. Further, Smith had a bunch of his own instruments and as a result seemed to lack focus, drive, and energy as host and lead singer. Show seemed a mish mash. Smith...continued
Quotes & Highlights
- "Smith has a problem — it's that he's too good at too many things. Blues, rockabilly, Chuck Berry rock — you name it. Smith can sing and play it with as much soul, suave or boogie as anyone in town. Best of all, Smith enjoys each song as much as the audience."— BAM Magazine
- "A stylistic cross between Louis Armstrong and Harry Connick Jr., Smith, whose presence combines warmth and chutzpah … lures in rubbernecks from the sidewalk with his assorted mix of music." —Pasadena Weekly

What happens this summer in the NBA?
Updated: March 25, 2005, 12:23 PM ETBy Chad Ford | ESPN Insider
An unprecedented flurry of player movement at the trade deadline last Thursday still has heads spinning.
What has gone down in the past few weeks will have ramifications not only on the playoff race but also on what's shaping up to be one of the busiest offseasons in NBA history.
With recent revelations about the new collective bargaining agreement, a looming age limit and a plethora of players heading into free agency, the landscape of the NBA should be in for a seismic shift.
Now that the trade deadline hangover has subsided, Insider breaks down what it all means and how it should affect a number of teams' plans for this summer.

It has been 2 years after the thread started. So many good review about this pairs, but in reality the quality is not impressed me. I'm agree that the detail and high is better.
But about the bass, I really don't recommend to get this one. I have several IEM which has better bass such as Philips SHE9550, SHE8005 and Pioneer SE-CL711,
They lose in clarity and detail but not the bass, besides they costs only one-third and one-half compared to this pairs.
I would describe that CKS77's bass is average, it emphasizes on mid bass and upper bass but lack of sub bass. You won't expect car subwoofer quality with this pair.
Some IEM which is advertised as bass heavy like JVC xtreme xplosives HAFX1X, Pioneer SE-CL751 with Subwoofer effect, are about the same.
I have concluded that no existing IEM which can match the Over-ear headphone in term of bass quality. I'd rather dissapointed anyway but that's they are.
My comparison is against Over-ear headphone Plantronics backbeat pro and Philips Fidelio. My track is the "bass I love you" by bassotronics.
Until now I can not find IEM which has equal bass quality with those pairs.

Event: Quiz Evening - Living Newspaper - Marais Road Hall - Tuesday June 8
Expand Messages
- Hi,
The Living Newspaper is a volunteer organisation that arranges superb speakers at the Marais Road Hall on a regular basis. It's always well attended and not many people who use email are aware of it. Unfortunately the organisers similarly do not use email :( they mainly communicate in print (snail mail and flyers) and voice.
Next Tuesday June 8 they are having their annual Quiz evening. Any group of 8-10 can arrive and join (or individuals will be assigned groups).It's always a great success and there are 15 categories of questions. I suggest it will be alot of fun!
If there is anyone else on the list that can send this info more regularly I would appreciate it. I cannot always get access to when their meetings are and who is speaking.
Warm regards

Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) made it clear that he felt Iran posed "a threat" to the Persian Gulf region, as the lawmaker responded to the assassination plot that was allegedly conceived in Tehran, The Associated Press reported.
CBS News reported that the Senator felt that the situation could have been diverted through the U.S. taking more of an aggressive position against the Iranian government during street protests in Tehran in 2009.
"I think if we had supported the demonstrators at the time it could have meant a significant change in the government of Iran," McCain said on CBS's The Early Show. "We should have supported them and they could have overthrown the government then."
McCain went on to say that if Iran were to acquire nuclear weapons, the reckless behavior it has displayed could translate into a more serious problem for everyone, according to the news source.
The Senator voiced his fear that the country may become a bigger threat following the recent conspiracy that allegedly involved a member of Iran's Quds Force special foreign actions unit, CBS reported.

Great coffeemaker & grinder!
have had a year & no problems. Grinds beans well & keeps coffee hot a long time. Great purchase.Read More
perfect coffee overtime!
I HIGHLY recommend this coffee machine to anyone who loves a fresh cup of coffee! I brag about this coffee maker all the time. every feature is used with out a problem. the burr grinder does an excellent job and every cup of coffee taste fresh with the perfect balance of coffee beans. Not having a hot burner is a major plus! You never have to worry about forgetting to turn the coffee pot off ever again! the stainless steal mug holds up to 12 cups of coffee and keeps it warm for hours! I am still impressed with this coffee machine, I have never had any problems with it, and I expect to use this machine until it no longer works!!Read More
with the proper maintenance it performs to profection! I have had this for a few years now and it works GREAT! I clean the grinder shoot EVERYDAY. If you use distilled water you will have better performance as no deposits will attaché to the heating element. I bought a Kurig and put this in the pantry...... 6 months later the Kurig is in the pantry and this is on the counter. LOVE IT. IF YOU ARE INTO CLEANING IT DAILY THE DO NOT BUY IT! clean it you won't be sorry!!!Read More
Broke in a month
I had this about a month when the spring on the basket broke. This simple thing makes it unusable. My older model, which I had over 7 years never had any issues.Read More
Cuisinart DGB-900BCFR Grind-and-Brew Automatic
I purchased this item 2/14/2014 and only used it for weekend family breakfast time. After 90 days the grinder started to act up and now exactly 6 months later it has died. I have a phone number to contact Cuisinart Customer Service Monday morning #### to discuss the item under manufacture warranty. It's a coffee maker, and it was supposed to be the best. I would suggest you purchase the extra warranty for the coffee maker.Read More
Coffee brewer
As I reviewed the negative comments, I judged that all were correctable. The "Burr" grinder is the most exacting and is very size accurate. The programing is accurate and efficient. I have been operating mine every day for over a year and one half without any breaks. I do weekly maintenance and cleaning. This is one of the good/better products.Read More
Very Solid
I make coffee at least once daily, and prefer to grind my own beans. I'm replacing another brand comparable in price that did not have the grinding feature. I have other coffee grinders, but wanted a burr grinder. So, when I whacked the bottom out of the glass carafe of the last coffee maker, I just decided to scrap it and go for this one. Since it is refurbished, I also bought the extra warranty, just in case. The thermal carafe is a major plus. Now, instead of running back to the kitchen to freshen a cup, I take it all to the den and sit in front of the fireplace with consistently hot coffee. This is the best of all worlds. I would have given it a 5, but it is rather unwieldy to assemble each evening, the print on the machine itself is almost microscopic plus the stainless steel carafe is extremely well built, and thus very heavy. All in all this is an exceptional buy.Read More
So Far So Good
Right off the bat I will say that I like this coffee maker. I love having a grind and brew all-in-one function, and there are not many choices on the market. Furthermore, the strong setting really does make strong coffee, which is extremely important to us. Finally, the carafe really does keep the coffee warm for a long time. Here are some important tips for those of you considering a purchase or for those who have recently purchased this item: 1. DON'T PUT THE GRIND SETTING OVER #8!!!!! If the grounds are too light and fine they will clog up the grind shoot constantly. 2. I found the diagram really confusing as to where the grind shoot is, and at first confused it with the bean collector. Once the bean repository is removed the grind shoot is at the front of the machine, under the bean repository, and behind a trap door. One must depress the lever and open the door to see where the beans travel from the grinder into the filter. 3. Don't forget to empty the filter basket. All of our troubles started then. The machine worked flawlessly until I neglected to empty the basket one day. Then the grind shoot clogged and I couldn't find it right away. I actually thought the unit was broken and almost returned it when we did, in the end, figure it out. Further stress and problems ensued until we figured out the optimal grind setting (see #1). So if you are like me, having skipped the keurig revolution, and you just love grinding your own fresh beans, than this is a great machine to consider.Read More
Great Coffee
If you have never had really fresh, I mean ground just a it perks, you might want to try it. It is the best coffee ever. This coffee maker was purchased specifically for our 5th wheel, because we are so spoiled with the one we have at home we had to get another one to use while we camp. Cuisinart makes wonderful coffeemakers, and I don't believe I will ever go back to regular brewed coffee. Grind and Brew is the only way to drink coffee.Read More
Great buy
Bought for wife who had previous cuisinart grind and brew coffee maker that died after 7years of use. This one was an upgraded model and when arrived was in new condition. Wife loves it and says coffee taste great, worth the purchase and saved a lot of money purchasing from overstock and recommend .Read More

Show synopsis
Things have never been easy for Oscar. A ghetto nerd living with his Dominican family in New Jersey, he's sweet but disastrously overweight. He dreams of becoming the next J. R. R. Tolkien and he keeps falling hopelessly in love. Poor Oscar may never get what he wants, thanks to the Fuku - the curse that has haunted his family for generations. With dazzling energy and insight Diaz immerses us in the tumultuous lives of Oscar; his runaway sister Lola; their beautiful mother Belicia; and in the family's uproarious journey from the Dominican Republic to the US and back. Rendered with uncommon warmth and humour, "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao" is a literary triumph, that confirms Junot Diaz as one of the most exciting writers of our time.

Perfection Learning
The book is worth buying. If you choose to purchase this book you will not be disappointed.
This is a unique voice telling a fascinating story about a part of the world most non-Dominicans won't have heard much about. It made me feel ashamed about my own lack of awareness but also spurred me to think more about other repressive political histories and diasporic peoples. I listened to it on cd's and found it particularly moving to hear the occasional Spanish words uttered by someone who gave them the emotional inflection that made their meaning clear, even to a non-Spanish speaker. This is one of the best books I've "read" (or heard) in years.
'Oscar Wao' is indeed a very good book, but it has gotten such praise, awards and - frankly - hype, that for me it slightly failed to live up to expectations. It is a wonderful story - a small story wrapped inside what amounts to a recent history of the Dominican Republic - about a loner 'dweeb' named Oscar. (Wao is not his real last name, but I'll let the story tell you how it became his nickname since it's pretty funny.)
The book is quite stylized in the way the story is told, and the changing narrative, the use of Dominican slang (without translation) and the pop culture references to Dungeons and Dragons and Tolkien may turn off as many readers as it engages. It's not a novel that has true mass appeal. But Junot Diaz is a talented storyteller, and the book is a solid, often spectacular piece of evidence of this. It just might be QUITE as wonderful as everyone is telling you - buyer beware. Still, I enjoyed it very much and do recommend it.
This shy author's on stage demeanor completely belies the torrid and fantastical population that inhabits and suffuses this novel with Caribbean angst and sex. A dweeb he might be personally, but Diaz is the new generation of nano Latins writing and beguiling their audience with life tales of the post Trujillo dictatorship NuevoDoms. Combining Jersey 'hood antics with traditional Hispanic family systems psycho terror, the "hero" of this book can't help but head toward oblivion, a Carib tragedy that started the day he was born to struggling illegal immigrants making the dream happen in Mammon's shadow across the Hudson. Pluses: occasional footnoes with popularized historic summaries of the DR. Minuses: Lots of DomRep 'hood slang that he should have footnoted for the non Jersey Latino hipsters( shame on the editors). Minor point as I contemplated the sweep and agility of Diaz' lingo prose. And for a real feel for the precarious existence of Third World wannabees, it is superb. Even better at the end of this thoughtfully concise novel (Grisham hope you're listening) the reader feels like he/she has lived a full life, not the short years of the main character, but the whole gang. Frankly, I felt relief when the guy takes his final bow, his obsessive/compulsive kamakazee personality receiving its just due. To that extent, he seemd incredibly naive, stupid, and plain self immolating, but then, ain't love worth it all?Can't wait to see what new Hispanic substratum Diaz digs up next.
I just do not get what the big deal is with this book! I have not read Diaz's previous book, Drown, so maybe something there identifies him as a major talent, but I'm sorry to say I don't get that impression from this novel.The story is slow moving, it jumps forward and backward through time, and changes character points-of-view at random, often without identifying which character is speaking. But the most egregious thing is that for the entire first half of the book, the author maintains a third-person omniscient narrative voice. Then all of a sudden the "narrator" is actually a character in the story? And maybe it's implied that the narrator is the one writing the story? What? In addition to which, the narrator-character boils down to exactly this: "I am a Dominican man, therefore I like to chase girls and get laid." What?? As a matter of fact, all the characters are fairly one-dimensional (the mother is a bossy shrew, the sister is stubborn and ambitious, Oscar is a nerdy loner, etc).The only thing I enjoyed (and believe me, I use that term loosely) in the book were the historical bits about the Dominican Republic during the reign of the dictator Trujillo.In all, I wouldn't recommend the book and I certainly won't read it again myself. I did finish it, but it was a chore to plow through and when I was finished I just felt relieved to have done with it. Sorry.

I use my laptop for coursework, but mostly for gaming. My previous laptop did not run games well, so I decided to look for another one. When I found this I bought it almost straight away; it can handle gaming well and is definitely worth the price. I was also a bit cautious about this website because I had not heard it before, but the reviews were good, and they were right. It arrived early and in perfect condition. I would recommend this to anyone.

Virgin Media joins Sky in offering London 2012 Olympics in 3D
As well as confirm that it will be carrying all 24 of the BBC's live London 2012 Olympic Games feeds, in both SD and HD, Virgin Media will be joining Sky in showing plenty of the action in 3D too.
The BBC will be showing the opening and closing ceremonies in 3D, while Eurosport will launch a new dedicated channel, Eurosport 3D, on 27 July. The channel - available through both Virgin Media and Sky - will broadcast up to eight hours of 3D live footage and four hours of highlights each day.
Virgin Media will also be offering a stack of Olympics-flavoured video-on-demand (through BBC iPlayer, which will also be available through other similarly-spec'ed TV services), and some Eurosport 3D content will make up part of that.
"This year's breadth of viewing options will allow fans of any Olympic sport to watch their favourite events live and on demand, and with BBC and Eurosport 3D viewers will be able to immerse themselves in the Games as never seen before," said Aleks Habdank, the company's director of digital entertainment.
Eurosport 3D and the 24 live BBC HD streams will be available to V HD, V+ HD, TiVo 500GB and TiVo 1TB customers. Those with the original V box will get the 24 live BBC SD streams only.
Are you looking forward to the Olympics? Are you going to watch every sport imaginable? Let us know in the comments below...

OPA1 increases the risk of normal but not high tension glaucoma

- Correspondence to Professor P F Chinnery, Mitochondrial Research Group, The Medical School, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE2 4HH, UK; p.f.chinnery{at}ncl.ac.uk
- Received 28 March 2009
- Revised 18 June 2009
- Accepted 28 June 2009
- Published Online First 5 July 2009
Background Primary open angle glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy characterised by the selective loss of retinal ganglion cells, pathological optic disc cupping and visual field defects. The OPA1 gene encodes an inner mitochondrial membrane protein crucial for normal mitochondrial function, and pathogenic mutations cause autosomal dominant optic atrophy by specifically targeting retinal ganglion cells. This raises the distinct possibility that more subtle genetic variations in OPA1 could alter the risk of developing glaucoma.
Methods 137 patients with primary open angle glaucoma (67 patients with high-tension glaucoma (HTG), 70 patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG)) and 75 controls from the North East of England were studied. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms in intron 8 (IVS8+4c→t and IVS8+32t→c) and exon 4 (c.473A→G) of the OPA1 gene were genotyped in the study group. In addition, the entire OPA1 coding region was sequenced in 24 individuals with the CT/TT compound genotype using standard BigDye chemistries.
Results There was no difference in either allele or genotype frequency for the IVS8+32t→c single-nucleotide polymorphisms between patients and controls, but there was a significant association between the T allele at IVS8+4c→t and the risk of developing NTG (OR=2.04, 95% CI=1.10 to 3.81, p=0.004), but not HTG. Logistic regression analysis also confirmed a strong association between the CT/TT compound genotype at IVS8+4 and IVS8+32 with NTG (OR=29.75, 95% CI=3.83 to 231.21, p=0.001).
Conclusions The CT/TT compound genotype at IVS8+4 and IVS8+32 is a strong genetic risk determinant for NTG but not HTG.
Competing interests None.

I feel every young person, woman especially, should read this book to have an understanding of the ramifications of their actions. I would recommend all Christian high schools have this on their summer reading lists. Told with gentleness but with truth. I have found this to be the work of Karen Kingsbury that has most powerfully impacted me personally.

While the storyline was interesting, I got so distracted by the poor syntax (sentence structure). As an English writing professor, it was impossible for me to get past the clipped, fractured fragments. Perhaps a more articulate editor would have made the choppiness less invasive.
