Good customer service. Not happy with finished product - the shirts and colors turned out much darker than proof indicated. Unsatisfied.

I have been ordering CustomInk shirts for my school's Experimental Vehicle Team for the past three years, and I have always been extremely pleased with both the quality of the shirts as well as the quality of the logos. I use my own logos and images, along with the logos of our sponsors. Everyone, from student to CEO, has been pleased with the wearability and quality of our CustomInk shirts year after year. Merci!

The t-shirts and the hoodie far exceeded my expectations. I loved being able to design them quickly online. And the end result was a t-shirt that was fresher and more modern looking that the traditional tees. CustomInk seems like a very cool company. We will order again!

At BikeMaster, they understand the quality and performance that motorcycle owners demand. They also understand that quality should be affordable. Not just for professional riders and mechanics, but for the everyday rider / mechanic as well. That is why BikeMaster continues to bring that level of quality and performance to all riders with their complete line of tools, parts and accessories at affordable prices.
An ideal O.E. replacement chain, the BMXR Q4 X-Ring Sealed Chain (Q4 seal-ring chain) offers 1.5 to 2 times longer wear resistance than regular O-ring chains.
- Each refined component designed with computer analysis provides higher tensile strength.
- Specially controlled heat treatment means tougher material, more durability.
- Q4 seal ring and reinforced pin and roller provide superior wear resistance, higher impact resistance and fatigue strength.
- Q4 seal ring offers less friction, which leads to less power loss - almost half of that of standard O-ring chain.
- "Round rivet head" offers superior rigidity over 2 or 4-point (quad-staked) riveting.
- Average tensile strength of 8,500 pounds.
- Suitable for 750cc maximum displacement street and off-road use.
- Includes clip-style master link.
- 120 links.
Note for installing X-ring chains: As X-ring chains are wider than standard roller chains, when fitting an X-ring chain to a motorcycle that was fitted with a non O-ring chain as original equipment, it is essential to check that there is proper clearance of the engine cases near the countershaft sprocket and any other places of close contact. Failure to do so could result in damage to the chain and motorcycle and could ultimately cause the chain to fail.

agnc is on a roll with offerings!
please stay below 29..for 3 more days...I dont want my shares to exercise...and I can sell some more covered calls!!
I thought it was strange that the December put volume hit 500 today. That sounded a bit high, given the expiration date...
I believe the put volume spiked to around 700-800 before ACAS sold, so I thought something might be up.
I'm going to take a HUGE hit on my calls tomorrow. Thank god I've got enough free capital to make up for some of this.
I think it holds 28 and if they give something extra next week it could pop back to 30 tops!
it's a great time to have purchasing power . . . keep on growing, imo . . .
Thought they might right after ex-div again, this timing was a surprise. Fortunately have plenty of fresh powder to add more.
I'm hoping this goes into the 26 range
trading at 28.20 wow
sorry to sounds dumb, but what is another offering mean? Are they offering the shares at a lower price? If so, any ideas out there on how low this goes (I understand the div announcement is any day now)
American Capital Agency Corp. (Nasdaq:AGNC - News) ("AGNC" or the "Company") announced today that it agreed to sell 8,000,000 shares of its common stock to Citi and Deutsche Bank. In connection with the offering, the Company intends to grant the underwriters an option for 30 days to purchase up to an additional 1,200,000 shares of common stock to cover overallotments, if any.
AGNC expects to use the net proceeds from this offering to acquire additional agency securities as market conditions warrant and for general corporate purposes.
I don't think they priced the offering yet, but the last offering was $26-something.
Yes. They have historically offerred new shares my guess at 28. Stock will settle back to those levels.
18% more shares

Product Description
Praise for Free Ride
"A book that should change the debate about the future of culture….With this stylishly written and well-reported manifesto, Levine has become a leading voice on one side of our most hotly contested debate involving law and technology."
—Jeffrey Rosen, The New York Times Book Review
"Turbo-reported....Free Ride is a timely and impressive book--part guilt trip, part wake-up call, and full of the kind of reporting that could only have been done with a book advance from an Old Media company."
"[A] smart, caustic tour of the modern culture industry."
"Brilliant…A crash course in the existential problems facing the [media]."
—Richard Morrison, The Times
"The most convincing defense of the current predicament of the creative industries that I have read."
—James Crabtree, Financial Times
"With penetrating analysis and insight, Levine, a former executive editor of Billboard magazine, dissects the current economic climate of the struggling American media companies caught in the powerful fiscal grip of the digital industry…. This incisive book is a start at an informed dialogue."
—Publishers Weekly
"Can the culture business survive the digital age? That's the burning question Robert Levine poses in his provocative new book. And his answer is one that will get your blood boiling. Rich with revealing stories and telling tales, Free Ride makes a lucid case that information is actually expensive – and that it's only the big technology firms profiting most from the work of others that demand information be free."
—Gary Rivlin, author of Broke, USA
"One of the great issues of the digital age is how people who create content will be able to make a living. Robert Levine's timely and well-researched book provides a valuable look at how copyright protection was lost on the internet and offers suggestions about how it could be restored."
—Walter Isaacson, President/CEO of the Aspen Institute and author of Benjamin Franklin
"This book thoroughly documents a wide-spread outbreak of cyber amnesia. Despite libertarian delusions, industries often get Free Rides, especially in their early days, but they eventually give back. Taxpayers build roads, then get hired to build cars. The Internet gives back a lot in exchange for its Free Ride, but one thing it defiantly isn't giving back is a way for enough people to make a living. No matter how amusing or addictive the Internet becomes, its foundation will crumble unless it starts returning the favors it was given and still depends on."
—Jaron Lanier, author of You Are Not a Gadget
"Free Ride is a brilliantly written book that exposes the dark side of the Internet. A must read for anyone interested in the horrific undermining of our intellectual culture."
—Edward Jay Epstein, author of The Big Picture: Money and Power in Hollywood
"Robert Levine deftly dissects the self-serving Orwellian freedom-speak being served up by Silicon Valley's digital new lords as they amass fortunes devaluing the work of artists, journalists and other old-fashioned 'content creators.' Free Ride begs us to remove our blinders and take a hard look down a cultural dead-end road."
—Fred Goodman, author of Fortune's Fool: Edgar Bronfman Jr., Warner Music, and an Industry in Crisis
"Without being a Luddite, Levine makes the phony digital media gurus of our day seem as simple-minded as their slogans."
—Ron Rosenbaum, author of How the End Begins and Explaining Hitler

Whatever I might have said, you shall not see it as a reason not to buy and read this book! I really appreciated it, if only for the fact it gave me the opportunity to debate with myself on mister Levine's arguments!
The author explains how our information economy is headed for a place where information
isn't worth anything in an environment of piracy.
He approaches the subject in a fair way balancing his comments between user and producer.
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
This is why I was pleasantly surprised by this book. It's a fascinating history of the rise of digital piracy as it affected (and affects) the major "content" businesses (Music, Newspapers, Publishing, Television, and Film), and particularly the divide between the digital technology companies (such as Google) and the content industries. Quite often, I finished a chapter of the book much more sympathetic to these businesses than I had been before, particularly when Levine really delves into the economics of the "content" businesses and the piracy affecting them. While I don't entirely agree with him (at times, I think he's a little too wed to the idea of keeping the content businesses large and stable), I strongly recommend this book to any interested in these topics.
Levine focuses on those five main "content" businesses, but the real heart of the book (the most researched and detailed, including Levine's proposal for dealing with piracy) lie in the sections about the Music Industry. He goes into great detail about how digital piracy unfolded on the industry in the form of Napster, File-Sharing, and Digital Lockers, and how the Music Industry reacted to these changes (and the proliferation of digital technology plus the web). Particularly interesting to me was his writings on the economics of the Music Industry and each method of distributing music (such as CD Albums versus iTunes singles), as well as the details about the rise and fall of Napster in the late 1990s.
It is from the Music Industry that Levine also draws his proposal for resolving the issue of getting rights-holders paid for the use of their content on the web: "Blanket Licenses", or the right for people to use all the music they want as long as they pay for the license to an organization that then distributes the revenue (or if they subscribe to services that do this). He points out that this is already a system in place for paying songwriters and music publishing, and that several European telecoms/Internet Service Providers (such as TDC in the Netherlands). There is increasing support for it in continental Europe, although the US music industry continues to be wary.
This is not to dismiss the rest of the book. Levine also delves quite well into how e-books are changing the Publishing Industry, mostly in the context of the conflict between tech companies that want to sell book-reading devices using books as a "loss leader", and the actual publishing companies that are afraid that this "loss leading" will destroy any other retailers who can't afford to take a loss on book sales to sell physical readers. He makes a very convincing argument that it was foolish for newspapers to put all their articles online for free, instead of reserving most of them for subscribers (particularly the more profitable "print" subscribers that usually account for more than 90% of a newspaper's revenue). Levine points out that Online Video is a major threat to cable television, the heart of the modern television business (their reaction is "TV Everywhere", allowing anyone with a cable subscription to watch television shows and movies on any devices they own). And quite frequently, Levine points out the divide between the technology companies that have benefited from a "free web" that permits piracy (such as Youtube getting popular on the back of pirated video content that users post), and the content providers hurt by this. A great deal of his anger is particularly reserved for Google, which has been a major player in dampening efforts to strengthen copyright enforcement online.
That is not to say that I agree wholeheartedly with Levine on these issues. His chapters on the newspaper business are very convincing, and I'm much more sympathetic to the television and music businesses after reading this book. Nonetheless, I think Levine has a bias towards high-priced, professional content output, such as high-priced shows on cable subscriptions. There are several points in the book where he's dismissive towards amateurs and "hobbyists", and I get the impression that he would gladly make the trade-off of higher cable prices for higher-priced (and presumably better) content such as "Mad Men". That's a fair opinion, but it's like complaints about how the quality of air travel degraded after de-regulation allowed cheaper airfare prices in the US: quality was lost, but far more people had access and the ability to enter the market. It's important not to get too wedded to the present state of the "content" market, fears about a "twenty-first century economy with a seventeeth-century content business" aside.
Despite some of my disagreements with Levine, I DO wholeheartedly recommend that you read this book. It's an excellent piece, both readable and well-supported, from a perspective that tends to be dismissed as entirely self-serving and "luddite" in the debates over digital piracy.
As an aside, I'd be interested to know what Mr.Levine thinks about SOPA. In any case, I recommend Free Ride.
One of the things that surprised me in this book was that what I'd once seen as a battle between a rebel alliance of copyleft freedom fighters on one side and monopolistic capitalist dinosaurs on the other was substantially more complicated.
The author explores and documents why technology and communications companies (the finger is generally pointed at Google) strongly advocate against enforcement of copyright (that is that they agree in general that creators should be compensated, but lobby against enforcement of copyright law). I found author was unnecessarily critical of Lessig in particular (I don't think Lessig is pushing any barrow other than his own even though groups he is involved with have been blessed by Google's beneficence), but that the author's general argument about why certain big companies were willing to support groups like the EFF and other anti-copyright enforcement advocacy groups does seem to hold water.
It boils down to reasoning coming along the lines of "the killer app for the Internet is piracy" and that many technology companies would incur a substantial cost if they had to strictly police copyright infringement. That it can be reasonably argued that services like the old Napster, BitTorrent, and File Locker sites indirectly drive profit in the technology industry whilst reducing profit in the "creation of culture" industry (hence the use of parasite in the book's title). The author isn't claiming that techn companies make money directly out of piracy itself, but that stamping down on infringement would certainly be a substantial operating expense and there is no benefit in one ISP coming down on users for downloading stuff when they'll just move to another ISP that has a more laid back attitude.
The book explores the "find a different business model" arguments that anti-copyright enforcement advocacy groups suggest that in theory would allow content creators to make a dime whilst giving away that content for free. However it turns out that if there is a different business model, it doesn't work except in a few edge cases. The author suggests that some sort of blanket license fee might work (such as is being trialed at certain ISPs in Denmark). The author also admits that a substantial number of people still believe that creators can make a good income giving their product away for free (and that the ones that can't simply aren't being creative enough and should be a bit more inventive) and that as long as that belief persists, consumers who are used to "free" will feel little compunction topay directly for digital content.
However I was frustrated during the first few chapters of the book; I felt like the author was venting against the internet, pirates, and YouTube. The Internet has provided the best distribution method (for consumers) to date for multimedia, and pirates discovered this far faster than the content industry. If Netflix & Hulu preceded mainstream file sharing I wonder how many movies would be downloaded against copyright?
The problem with this, if I am in fact correct in that impression, is that the older generations already understand how and why old ideas relating to media distribution work. This book attempts to dispel some of the present-day notions relating to information distribution in the Internet Age, which means that it would be most purposeful if it were read by the Internet Generation; they're the ones who might find the ideas in this book eye-opening. Pre-Generation X readers will probably find little to surprise them here.
However, if the reviews here on Amazon are any indication, it seems that the Internet Generation is reading this book after all, which is probably a good thing. All of this being said, then, let me try to summarize the intent of this book. Quite simply, Free Ride is a call to return to common-sense thinking, flying directly in the face of all the assumptions that the market seems to have made about media on the Internet. People who spend hours of their spare time on the Internet every day are NOT likely to agree with the core points of this book, but if they keep an open mind when reading, they may just come to a better understanding of how "the other side" in the battle for new media thinks.
Levine thoroughly picks apart one of the key fallacies of the Internet Age: the idea that "information wants to be free." Levine observes--and quite rightly so--that proponents of the Information Age have made a critical oversight by wholeheartedly adopting two incompatible tenets: First, they have settled on the idea that information is the most valuable commodity in the world today. Though it lacks physical substance, information, the digerati will tell you, is worth more than physical goods such as wheat, steel, timber, and so on. Secondly, they have embraced the idea that "free is the new black." That is to say, all this information should be given away for free.
Anyone with any ounce of sense should immediately recognize that these ideas are incompatible with each other. If the Information Age is trading in information, what good does it do to give away your only valuable commodity for free? The idea that a viable business model can be based on giving information away for free is only adopted by companies such as Google, Yahoo!, Facebook, and so on--companies which make most or all of their revenue on advertising. In doing this, these companies have utterly devalued the cultural production of "real art" by making music, text, and visual media freely available to the world, but making money by cluttering that media with advertising. In other words, adertising is regarding as the only "information" of any value; everything else--the actual content--becomes worthless filler. This is an atrocious inversion of cultural values, and Levine's objection to the devaluation of culture is palpable.
Free Ride follows a familiar formula: Like most books of this type, it spends most of its pages laying out its case, stating facts to back up its claims. The book's subtitle speaks to "How the culture business can fight back," but perhaps predictably, the actual sections advocating some type of action are compressed toward the end of the book, almost as an afterthought. This part is where things get really interesting, however, as Levine's ideas about solutions are positively antithetical to the current Internet media model. If new media geeks find Levine's premises doubtful, they'll absolutely howl when they read Levine advocating government intervention in how the Internet spreads information. Writing about the Internet in Europe, Levine notes that government legislation is effective in controlling what can be accessed on the Internet: Levine relates amusing anecdotes of how large Internet portals trotted out their usual lines about how regulating the Internet restricts freedom of expression and "the Internet can't be regulated anyway," until European governments passed federal laws requiring Internet sites to restrict traffic to certain countries, at which point the Internet portals magically discovered that they can regulate the Internet after all. Lest we forget, let me remind you that Google, Yahoo!, MSN, and similar online portals make nearly all of their revenue on advertising. They have no interest in providing quality information to readers; like any other large media organization, they simply want to provide something simple and entertaining so they can get people to keep viewing their ads. That's not a sound basis for the generation of meaningful cultural media.
Levine is no fool; he knows fully well that most people won't pay for something they can get for free, and he's not afraid to advocate strong controls on the Internet to cut down on piracy. People who lack any understanding of politics and companies which make money from advertising on the Internet are always quick to provide a knee-jerk reaction to such ideas, insisting that their rights and freedoms are being violated, but Levine's obviously smart enough to see through this empty rhetoric. This takes me back to my original point: If people of the older generations read Free Ride, they'll fully understand how and why the government regulates the flow of information; their only question will be why such hasn't been done sooner. The under-30 crowd, however, will quickly take to reddit or Facebook and insist that Levine is one of the most evil and dangerous writers of our current era. None of the ideas in this book are new; the book is obviously biased toward implementing stronger controls on the Internet, and while this position is not "wrong," Internet people are so brainwashed into thinking that old media-distribution channels are "obsolete" that I doubt even a book full of well-researched and compellingly-presented information such as this could convince them. Don't get me wrong; I don't like the idea of policing the Internet myself, but given how utterly rampant piracy is, Levine's really just telling us all what we should already know: A game in which everything is given away for free can only last for so long before it all collapses. If anyone doubts this idea in the slightest, they may find food for thought in Free Ride, but as a resource for new ideas or non-partisan perspectives on a hotly-debated topic, Free Ride doesn't really have much to offer. Worth a read for anyone who's unfamiliar with the issue or who wants to read a rebuttal to the "information wants to be free" sheep, but if you're thoroughly convinced that your e-business of downloading torrents is going to make you a millionaire, you should probably just put your headphones back on and go on pretending that everyone believes what you do.

Trade Paperback
On a cold, quiet day between Christmas and the New Year, a man's body is found in an abandoned apartment. His friends look on, but they're dead, too. Their bodies found in squats and sheds and alleyways across the city. Victims of a bad batch of heroin, they're in the shadows, a chorus keeping vigil as the hours pass, paying their own particular homage as their friend's body is taken away, examined, investigated, and cremated.All of their stories are laid out piece by broken piece through a series of fractured narratives. We meet Robert, the deceased, the only alcoholic in a sprawling group of junkies; Danny, just back from uncomfortable holidays with family, who discovers the body and futiley searches for his other friends to share the news of Robert's death; Laura, Robert's daughter, who stumbles into the junky's life when she moves in with her father after years apart; Heather, who has her own place for the first time since she was a teenager; Mike, the Falklands War vet; and all the others. Theirs are stories of lives fallen through the cracks, hopes flaring and dying, love overwhelmed by a stronger need, and the havoc wrought by drugs, distress, and the disregard of the wider world. These invisible people live in a parallel reality, out of reach of basic creature comforts, like food and shelter. In their sudden deaths, it becomes clear, they are treated with more respect than they ever were in their short lives.Intense, exhilarating, and shot through with hope and fury, Even the Dogs is an intimate exploration of life at the edges of society--littered with love, loss, despair, and a half-glimpse of redemption.

Jon McGregor is the author of the critically acclaimed Nobody Speaks of Remarkable Things and So Many Ways to Begin. He has won the Betty Trask Prize and the Somerset Maugham Award. He was born in Bermuda in 1976, grew up in Norfolk, and now lives in Nottingham, England.
"As a novel about the consequences of addiction--particularly heroin addiction--'Even the Dogs' is harrowing. It details the physical, psychological, social and environmental damage, and portrays the all-consuming nature of the life...Using ghosts as narrators gives the book a haunting overtone. It lends resonance even to a simple observation like 'We see things differently now.' And it lets McGregor write with a gritty omniscience." -New York Times Book Review
"Ambitious, haunting. thought-provoking." -Boston Globe
"A rare combination of profound empathy and wonderful writing." -Mark Haddon, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
"Those who enjoyed Hubert Selby Jr.'s "Requiem for a Dream" will value the style and the subject matter." -Library Journal
"McGregor succeeds in paying homage to the dispossessed and the hopeless, who live and die on the margins of society." -Booklist
"McGregor puts the reader into the minds of this interconnected web of people bent on various journeys of self-destruction. He constructs a powerful, disjointed narrative about dependency that is nearly impossible to put down, though it's not easy reading." -PopMatters

text: Culture 16 January 2012 John Burnside wins the T S Eliot prize The New Statesman nature columnist wins major poetry award Print HTML The celebrations begin again for John Burnside, the poet and novelist (and New Statesman nature writer), who has tonight been awarded the T S Eliot prize for his collection, Black Cat Bone. The book also won the Forward Prize for best collection last year. Gillian Clarke, chair of the judges, said: "John Burnside's Black Cat Bone is a haunting book of great beauty, powered by love, childhood memory, human longing and loneliness. In an exceptional year, it is an outstanding book, one which the judges felt grew with every reading." Also on the shortlist were Carol Ann Duffy, Leontia Flynn, David Harsent, Esther Morgan, Daljit Nagra, Sean O'Brien and Bernard O'Donoghue. Burnside has written frequently for the New Statesman in recent months, including the first contributions to our new Nature column, and as part of the magazine's new weekly poetry series.

Kathy Cassidy
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The Metropolis Organism with Filmmaker Frank Vitale
Frank Welles Studio, Building 5B 2nd Floor
Please note: This space is not ADA Accessible
Doors: 7:00pm, Screening Begins: 7:30pm (1 hour run-time)
Cost: FREE

The Metropolis Organism is comprised of a series of short films from the YouTube Channel and eBook of the same name. GARNER will present the films interspersed with discussion with led by the film's award winning Director. The Metropolis Organism is an exciting and eye- opening evolutionary perspective which offers clarity in our brave new technological world. By the end, audiences will never look at cities, and their inhabitants, in the same way.
Kirkus Review: "A superb pictorial and video meditation on the life of cities."
The Flaneur: "The Metropolis Organism is a fascinating and intelligent meeting of science and art. In his careful coordination of this meeting, Vitale intends to destabilize our perceptions of the city and its form. This he does with much aplomb."
Patch: "The ebook offers a thought-provoking new perspective on the towns and cities in which we live, but it is also a visually engaging experience—filled with eye-popping, beautiful photographs and videos of metropolises and the microscopic organisms to which these cities are compared."

Music Performance @ 7:30 by Ashley Bathgate

On View in Dye Works: M. Henry Jones' Solo Exhibition Pushing the Optical Envelope
GARNER Arts Center is pleased to invite you to its second program this season sponsored by Orange & Rockland Utilities. Renowned electronic cellist, Ashley Bathgate, will visit Garnerville for one night only for an evening of art intersecting with technology. Visitors will enjoy light and sound installations throughout the evening, including projections by M. Henry Jones during the performance.
[Ashley] Bathgate has been described as an "eloquent new music interpreter" (New York Times) who combines "bittersweet lyricism along with ferocious chops" (New York Magazine). Her "impish ferocity", "rich tone" and "imaginative phrasing" (New York Times) have made her one of the most sought after performers of her time. The desire to create a dynamic energy exchange with her audience and build upon the ensuing chemistry is a pillar of Bathgate's philosophy as a performer. Her affinity to dynamism drives Bathgate to venture into previously uncharted areas of ground-breaking sounds and techniques, breaking the mold of a cello's traditionally perceived voice. She is a member of the award winning, internationally acclaimed sextet, Bang on a Can All-Stars, as well as two chamber groups of which she is a founding member: TwoSense and Bonjour.
Bathgate is currently collaborating with the Brooklyn-based composer collective Sleeping Giant, which is writing her a six-movement suite for solo cello to premiere next year on the Metropolis Resident Artist Series in NYC. Bathgate has worked with an esteemed list of composers and musicians such as Bryce Dessner (The National), DJ Spooky, Ben Frost, Philip Glass, Michael Gordon, Annie Gosfield, Ann Hamilton, Glenn Kotche (Wilco), David Lang, Meredith Monk, Richard Reed Parry (Arcade Fire), Questlove and The Legendary Roots Crew, Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth), and Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond).
Henry Jones Film Projections
Curated by Jonathan Shorr
A comprehensive screening of M. Henry Jones's film work will be presented throughout the GARNER Art-Music-Tech Event on November 13th. Jones' teenage animated film work, his legendary photo animation music film shorts, current and past experimental animation projects and his cult TV commercials will be projected in several GARNER Warehouse Spaces. Of particular note is Jones' award-winning 2 minute short film "Soul City" of the Fleshtones which is considered the fine arts precursor of the music video three years before the launch of MTV, as well as Nervous Rex's "Go Go Girl" and the Zantees' "Brand New Cadillac". The screening program includes three decades of film and video work which captures a significant element of the downtown arts scene both past and present. Jones tries to engage and cultivate the viewer's gaze with retinal after-images and original color sequencing.

Please note, Change in Program*
LYNX (our previously scheduled music headliner) has fallen ill and has cancelled all performances on her calendar. We hope you will join us in sending her positive thoughts for a fast and healthy recovery. We have replaced the slot with an incredible artist, MASEGO.
Masego is a Jamaican Rooted, DMV based Jazz Vocalist, Saxophonist and Producer. His "Trap Scatting," "Arbitrary Sax" and "TrapHouseJazz" Band, has won him praise and support from names like Diddy, Solange, Michelle Phan and music authorities such as XXL, BBC radio, HOT97, HypeTrak, DJ Booth, Okay Player and even Universal Music Group. His Pink Polo Ep has not even hit "the inters of net" as of yet but has everyone buzzing and excited. It will be his break out project and is expected to "change the game." http://www.earmilk.com/2015/04/09/masego-and-medasin-deliver-the-soul-and-groove-on-girls-that-dance/

[Watch] Here's What Happens When Your Side Chick Crashes Your Wedding
It's a scene out of a Tyler Perry movie.
The trailer for the Michael Rapaport-directed documentary Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest has been released. The movie focuses on the pioneering hip hop group, A Tribe Called Quest, and the 20-year-relationship between childhood friends Phife Dawg and Q-Tip.
The film compiles concert footage in addition to personal interviews from artists influenced by the group—including Mos Def, Common, Ludacris, ?uestlove, Beastie Boys and Pharrell Williams. The movie premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and is set for release on July 8, 2011. John DeFore of The Hollywood Reporter said of the film, "Though it may not have much of an audience beyond the band's fan base, it offers enough context to serve as a primer on the hugely influential Native Tongues clique and should have life on home-vid."
The film is not without controversy as Q-Tip has repeatedly denounced it. Back in December, the rapper took to Twitter to vent his frustrations, writing that Rapaport "should respect the band enough to honor our request regarding the film." He has since said that the director's crew worked to remove Tribe members as producers and forced them to forgo their creative input.

[IMAGE]NCStateWolfline2FULL.jpg[/IMAGE] Blue Ridge Outdoors magazine recently selected Raleigh, N.C.-based NC State University (NCSU) as one of its top five "greenest schools" in the Southeastern U.S.
Universities were evaluated on factors such as renewable energy, energy conservation, food, alternative transportation, LEED/green building, recycling, environmental studies, green space and campus conservation and outdoor recreation.
In particular, NCSU was chosen for the list because of its variety of alternative transportation options. The University offers free commuting options, including the "GoPass" a regional transit pass that is available to all students and staff to ride free on local Capitol Area Transit (CAT) and regional Triangle Transit (TT) buses and "WolfWheels," a bike rental program that launched March 29.
NCSU's Wolfline transit system fleet is comprised of 30 buses for the campus and operates 11 daytime and three evening routes. "There are three major Wolfline transit hubs on campus and approximately 100 total bus stops, both on and off campus. Wolfline is free and open to the public," explained Alison Carpenter, transportation planner. In addition, she pointed out, Wolfline buses run on clean diesel.
The University campus also offers ample, covered bike parking at major buildings and parking areas, including several bike racks at high-volume bus shelters. Some campus buildings provide clothing lockers and shower facilities. While there are currently no bike racks on Wolfline buses, the University is researching options. CAT and TT buses do offer bike racks on all buses.
Currently, NCSU is planning to install at least one bike locker near a popular bus stop serving Wolfline, CAT and TT routes, said Caprenter. "Campus streets feature sharrow (shared lane) markings to raise awareness of bicycles on campus and the University's Campus Recreation Department recently debuted a campus bike rental program called WolfWheels," she added.
As the system continues to evolve, the NCSU Transportation Office meets regularly with students, faculty and staff to discuss transit operations and other campus transportation logistics. The University's Physical Environment Committee (PEC) consists of students, faculty and staff, who meet monthly to analyze transit data and review recommended service upgrades or changes, as well as other transportation issues. The Transportation office often meets with student groups working on class projects, as well as groups representing special campus interests who may have concerns about transit service to their department or area of campus.
In addition, the transportation office works with other campus departments to coordinate transit service to class schedules each semester and keeps in contact with Student Government and Faculty/Staff/Student Senates on related issues. The Transportation department hires student interns (including an NCSU engineering student) to help conduct transit data analysis and other technical functions. Finally, special planning processes typically involve student, faculty and staff representatives on ad-hoc review committees.
Other schools that made the magazine's Top 5 Greenest Schools in the Southeast list were Emory University and Georgia Tech University, both located in Atlanta, Durham, N.C.'s Duke University and Chapel Hill, N.C.-based University of North Carolina.

Davis beats Shuai and del Potro withdraws at Sony
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. -- Lauren Davis defeated Zhang Shuai of China 6-2, 6-3 at the Sony Open on Wednesday, and former U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro withdrew with a left wrist injury.
The 20-year-old Davis started 2014 ranked No. 72, and has moved up to No. 55.
Davis reached the Indian Wells fourth round, but withdrew from the match with a stomach virus.
"I'm playing really well and I have a lot of confidence," Davis said. "I think there's a time for everything and I feel like this is my time."
From 1-1 in the first set, Davis jumped ahead to a 4-1 lead. In the second set, Zhang started with a 3-1 lead, but Davis won the next five games to take the match.
Following the U.S. Open, Davis switched from working out of the Chris Evert Academy to the USTA Player Development program.
"Switching to the USTA has honestly been a great plus," Davis said. "Just hitting with other girls and making friends, and not everything there is about me.
"It's caused me to be more independent and I'm looking out for myself now."
Fellow American Christina McHale, who is one of the other Americans training at the USTA Center in Boca Raton, defeated Zheng Jie of China 6-4, 6-2.
Wildcard recipient Victoria Duval didn't fare as well as her fellow Americans, losing to qualifier Kiki Bertens 7-6 (5), 6-1.
Del Potro has been troubled by his left wrist since winning the Sydney title at the beginning of the year. At the recent Indian Wells tournament he played one doubles match, but then withdrew from the singles.
The 37th-ranked Andrea Petkovic of Germany, a top 10 player back in 2011, posted a 6-3, 6-4 win over Maria-Teresa Torro-Flor of Spain.
In first round men's action, 80th-ranked Adrian Mannarino of France ousted 71st-ranked Nikolay Davydenko of Russia 6-4, 7-5.
Czech Radek Stepanek defeated Daniel Brands of Germany 6-3, 6-0.

CALLICOON, NY — The historic Western Hotel, in the bucolic hamlet of Callicoon, is preparing to change hands for the first time in almost 50 years. The iconic 19th century building has been a hotel, restaurant and gathering space for this Delaware River community. Like many anchor properties in rural towns, it has lain dormant for some time. But recently Irene Nikolai, with her commercial real estate background, saw the possibilities in the property. In the ballroom, for instance, she envisions arts programming, film screenings, performances, dance classes and much more. Read more
The National Park Service (NPS) has decided that a collection of trees, limbs and other debris that have collected on a sand bar south of the PA Darbytown Fishing Access is a natural formation and will not be removed.

Recently after a chkdsk and reboot I lost the address bar in Windows Explorer and could not add it back. How do I bring the address bar back?
I have been searching for weeks across many posts and today found a solution that actually works so I wanted to share that:
Open up a new Windows Explorer, the Address Bar should now be visible.
In Windows 7 this seems to happen also in normal mode if "Auto-hide" is activated in full screen mode. Put explorer into full screen mode (F11) and open system menu (alt+space). Uncheck Auto-Hide and return to normal mode (F11).
