Black on black violence whats the reason
Young boy shot on the ave; he aint breathing
Mom and pops in distress
The whole family mourns when they see his obituary in the press
The #1 agent of death in the hood is the gun
And im talking about young boys who never sees the age of 21
Whats sad of all that this is my generation
Looking behind bars all I see is black faces
Im not trying to preach man, but tell the truth
Before the black face behind bars could end up being you
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...
I can rap about the whips I never drive
Or how we all are on the block on our grind
But that seems like the easiest
If my raps arent promoting the greater good then my words are meaningless
Im not the next pac or nas
But this rap right here will be for a greater cause
Im not trying to preach man, but tell the truth
Before the black face behind bars could end up being you
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I ...

Loved it, great job. Very well written and loved the flow of it.
This is really good (:
Nice, I liked it. Hey if you don't mind I've some new stuff out if you wouldn't mind taking a look. I know how you like to do rap. I didn't write rap but I did write a song.
Dear SG Banks,
my brothers in arms ... very hard reality ... i liked specially last stanza ..."through up your arms into the sky....you and i.." very poetic... together and power.. that i thought..
i liked the style of writing and unique theme...very dramatic..
well written...
thanks ..
Hey there, just wanted to say that I love Green Day and rap, so this was kind of a really great mix of a poem to read for me (: It had a really nice flow and rhythm to it, and it actually had a cause instead of like a lot of songs today,a nd that's what I like most about it, I think. Great job, if that wasn't obvious throughout my comment (:
Love this ... sadly it's not just black on black, it's white on white too. Great poem.
Melancholic piece, sad yet beautiful. Good work, keep rocking S G Banks ((:
You speak the truth, if only people would listen. Well done. Your heart is in the right place.
Interesting twist to it but i love it it was really good
Very good Poem and good writing
Hey sorry it took me so long to read this. I love to see rap being expressed :D.
Does this have any relation to the current shootings in America? I mean did you write this because of them, or is this something of your own experience?
I like how you address the issue in the first verse, and then in the second try and describe why it should be solved. I also admire how you use repetition well in this, it can make or break a poem. I mean with the last two line's of both stanzas.
Thank you for telling me to read this man, ill leave with a question, whats your opinion on the gun laws in America?
Its all good you read it now and that what matters and I wrote this about all the shootings in America and from some personal experience. The repetition did help the poem, but I wrote it also to keep my audience engaged. I didnt want people to think it was just another old soul telling them what they probably hear every day, but to share experience from the mind of someone who is not that much older. Honestly someone who just came out of his teens.
As far as gun laws in America, I feel that they should be stricter some how, but not take away from American tradition such as hunting somehow. I'm not a hunter but still want to respect everyone's freedoms and interest. I will say this though, arming teachers and letting them have guns in the class is just as bad. Not only will you have threats outside the school, but inside as well. Also, "the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun" saying is complete BS. By saying that all you trying to do is spill more blood that is not needed smh. I feel that gun laws should be stricter and that every household also have one gun for means of protection though. The way the world is now everybody got to have something to defend themselves with. All we can do is leave things in Obama's hand and put our prayers with God though.

In calling wrapped JS objects xpconnect captures JS errors, builds an exception,
and returns an xpcom error code. One can programatically get the most recent
exception (with error report object) on the current thread using
nsIXPConnect::GetPendingException(). It is not currrently printed. I can fix
We are going to need a global error reporter service. printf is not going to cut
it in the long run. The DOM error reporter only works on DOM contexts. I assume
that there is a bug about sending its output to a window. The JS loader and
xpconnect should use an error reporter service to also get the data to a window
console rather than the OS console that is not always going to be there.
I'm thinking about the short term here... In debug builds I can add code to
printf errors and uncaught exceptions from calls to wrapped JS objects. This is
not a production solution.
I added the (debug build only) printf. We need to do better.
mccabe offered to add code to send these errors to his new console service.
Created attachment 7812 [details] [diff] [review]
diffs to make xpcwrappedjsclass error reporter log to the console
Marking 47013 as a dependency, and nominating nsbeta3. Fix in hand.
This fix adds code to an XPConnect error reporter to register that error with
the JS Console. So far as I can see, it's a clean addition. Without this
patch, XUL/js developers won't see exceptions in JS code called from C++ unless
they're running debug builds. Life would be better if this were not so.
This will be crucial for JS developers. Marking beta3+.
*** Bug 13187 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Added 13187 as dup - possible extra issue to check is what JS Component errors
during registration time look like.
I'm making another stab at this, logging the exception in a somewhat different
place, at John's suggestion.
I've also subsumed xpcJSErrorReport.cpp into nsScriptError.cpp.
Diff attached
Created attachment 12571 [details] [diff] [review]
log exceptions to the console and turn xpcJSErrorReport into nsScriptError.
Fix checked in.
Ach, I think this is causing trouble.
I'm seeing an unfortunate behavior in the JavaScript console. Whenever the JS
console tries to QI (from JavaScript) one of the console messages to an
nsIScriptError, it might throw an exception (which is OK) but - due to the new
code, this exception logs another error, which ends up executing JS console
code, which tries to do a QI...
We need to short circuit this somewhere, or have a way to learn something more
about whether an exception will be uncaught. Ideas requested.
The JS console code could protect itself from re-entrance with a flag.
We could consider having the code in xpcwrappedjsclass only log a console
message on JS errors and not on throws from the JS code. That would sort of
I guess I'm missing something here -- are we really reporting caught-by-JS
exceptions as errors? That would seem a little wrong -- there are lots of
correct programs that catch errors as part of interaction with their
environment, and they shouldn't be filling the error log.
If we're only logging uncaught exceptions, though, why not just have the JS
Console catch the possible exception from QI?

Formatting Numbers in Output
How can I round numbers to a specified number of digits? I want to cut and paste the numbers into other programs or write them to files with 5 digits after the decimal. Among my many attempts, I tried NumberForm[number,5]. It formats the output to show 5 digits but it just places a wrapper around the number. When I cut and pastes, numbers transfer as as 18 digits in Windows or when viewed with FullForm. Similarly .00001 Round[10000 number] yields an 18 digit number. Any good ideas? Thank you.

Judge William Heath said the state had failed to prove beyond all doubt that Brig Ggozo ordered the January 1991 murder of the former Ciskei Defence Force chief Major-General Charles Sebe. Brig Gqozo's bodyguard was also found not guilty. The state had built its case around interviews Brig Gqozo gave to five journalists shortly after the murder in which he allegedly boasted about ordering Sebe's death.
Brig Gqozo came to power in a March 1990 coup d'etat.

The visual appeal was good. The presentation was something I would want to look at for more than a couple seconds. The review you had was good and seemed to supplement the section you were focusing on well. I liked how you told the students exactly how to execute this assignment and what you expected of them. After reading the intorduction, I was very aware of what it was I was suppose to be learning.
Technical Remarks:
Unfortunately, many of the multiple choice answers could not be clicked on. On a couple occasions, the answer I was finally able to click on proceeded as a different answer that I had not chosen. These technical issues made it difficult to move through each section. If these issues were corrected, this would be an assignment you would want to use.

It has been developed separately (by you alone), with zero input from the Tomcat community, does only share the interfaces and probably some of the modules (realms and some thing like that, I presume) with Catalina, so as far as I am concerned, any way you look at it, it is currently a fork.

RIVERSIDE: Mayor defends meeting arrest, others question it
Applause may be a welcome end to a play, awards show or opera performance, but Riversideâs mayor thinks itâs not the way to follow up comments at a public meeting.
Riverside Mayor William âRustyâ Bailey on Wednesday, June 26, defended his decision to have resident Letitia Pepper removed from a Tuesday city council meeting for behavior he considered disruptive. But other residents and policy experts had mixed views of the mayorâs stance that Pepperâs clapping was an unacceptable breach of decorum.
âIf the meeting isnât a place of decorum and order, itâs potentially chilling to (some) types of expression,â UC Riverside political science professor Martin Johnson said. âBut if the meeting is one wherein people have limits on their expression, that is potentially chilling ⦠especially if theyâre carried off in a police car.â
Pepper, an attorney and longtime local activist, was arrested and cited for disturbing a public meeting after she repeatedly clapped in support of public comments she agreed with, despite Baileyâs request that no one applaud because it might discourage or intimidate speakers with different opinions.
The incident comes two months after the Riverside County district attorneyâs office decided not to file charges against Riverside resident Karen Wright, who was handcuffed and cited for disturbing an October council meeting. Wright, a frequent council critic, had spoken beyond the three-minute public comment period and refused to sit down or step outside, though she has maintained she did nothing wrong.
On Wednesday, Pepper made a similar argument. She didnât disrupt the meeting, she said, because she only applauded after speakers were finished and didnât try to drown anyone out or clap over them.
âThe choice to disrupt the meeting was the mayorâs choice. The mayor chose to call a halt to the meeting,â said resident Kevin Dawson, who shot video of Pepperâs arrest on his cell phone.
âIf the mayor was really fair, he would have been enforcing the clapping ban when people were applauding positive things that the council had doneâ earlier in the meeting, Dawson said.
Resident Tanya Kelly, on the other hand, found Pepperâs persistent applause such a distraction that she called Bailey later to thank him for getting the meeting under control.
âIt takes away from the issues,â she said. âIâm a working person, so when I go to the City Council meeting I donât want to waste time with nonsense like that.â
Bailey said he followed the protocol by giving Pepper two specifically worded warnings before directing officers to remove her
âI feel like she came down there with a purpose, and to get arrested and to provoke me into that response. I think she gave me no choice,â he said.
In a 2011 incident, Pepper was found in contempt of court for ignoring multiple orders from a judge to leave the courtroom, leaving and then returning without permission. Of that incident, Pepper said she was simply trying to defend a client and doesn't believe she violated the judge's order.
Similar public conduct issues in Hemet led that cityâs council on Tuesday to adopt new protocols for decorum at meetings, Mayor Robert Youssef said.

Posted on 08/06/2012 10:10:27 AM PDT by thackney
Venezuela's state oil company Petroleos de Venezuela SA, or PdVSA, will take over a rig for an exploration project off Cuba's west coast "in the upcoming days" after a Malaysian-Russian consortium was unable to make a commercial discovery using the rig at a separate site, a statement in Cuban state newspaper Granma said Monday.
The Venezuelan company will receive control of the Scarabeo 9 platform to begin exploration drilling in deep waters off Cuba's coast with the Gulf of Mexico, the state publication said.
Venezuela sends Cuba around 100,000 barrels of oil a day in exchange for around 30,000 Cuban doctors who service Venezuelan slums.

Kirstie Alley & Chris Brown's Wild Night of Dancing
On Saturday night, the oh-so-controversial Chris Brown had a very special dance partner … "Dancing with the Stars" dynamo Kirstie Alley!
Chris Brown was out with pal T-Pain at The Colony in Hollywood. During their night on the town, the musical buds performed original songs and covers for the club's patrons. After the impromptu stage show, Brown took to the dance floor and busted a move with none other than dancing queen Alley. The twosome rocked their bodies as Brown taught the "DWTS" fave some new moves to prepare for this week's competition.
You can see Kirstie and her sizzlin' steps tonight on "Dancing with the Stars" on ABC at 8 p.m.

During the past decade Pfizer's (NYSE:PFE) Lipitor generated $115 billion in cumulative global revenue. Today, Lipitor is no more!
According to a Seeking Alpha Pfizer's Q3 earning call transcript, Lipitor lost $5.5 billion in revenue in the first 9 months of 2012. How can such diminishing contribution to Pfizer's product portfolio affect weight of Pfizer's shares in your own investment portfolio?
In 1996, Warner Lambert and Pfizer conducted the most successful launch in the history of the pharmaceutical industry when they jointly introduced the cholesterol-reducing drug Lipitor (atorvastatin).
On its first year on the market, Lipitor generated $580 million and before the end of 2001 it managed to generate $6.5 billion globally and to assume global pharmaceutical leadership position, a position it maintained till the end of 2011.
Source: Generic Opportunities in Lipid Regulating Drugs Market
Over the past decade, Lipitor was the most widely used branded prescription treatment for lowering blood cholesterol levels. Global Lipitor sales peaked at $13 billion in 2006 and has been on a downward trend ever since.
Lipitor lost patent exclusivity in Canada in May 2010, Spain in July 2010, Brazil in August 2010, Mexico in December 2010, Japan in June 2011 and in Australia in April 2012.
In the US, Lipitor lost exclusivity in November 2011. Authorized generics from Watson Pharmaceuticals (WPI) and Ranbaxy (OTC:RBXZF) entered the market in December 2011 and multi-source generic competition began in May 2012.
In the rest of Europe, while the basic patent for Lipitor expired in November 2011, the exclusivity period was extended by six months to May 2012 by virtue of a supplementary protection certificate and pediatric extension. In May 2012 Novartis (NYSE:NVS) launched generic version in almost all European countries.
At the end of 2011 Lipitor accounted for 14.2% of Pfizer's global revenue. Those who have been watching Pfizer know that it has no worthwhile blockbuster in its R&D pipelines or near commercialization that would be able to compensate for the hemorrhage caused by Lipitor's loss of patent.
Pfizer is also still cleaning up after Wyeth mega merger which left it with many patent expired, or near expiration, brands and lots of portfolio dogs.
Current PE at Pfizer stands at 19, way higher than most of its peers, GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE:GSK) currently stands at 13.5 and Lilly (NYSE:LLY) at 13.2.
Pfizer is planning to buyback up to $10 billion of its own stock, which is good in the sense that it redistributes cash back to the shareholders.
However, if top brass is thinking of giving extra cash back to the shareholders that means they already know that they have no worthwhile projects out there to invest the extra cash in.
If I was holding pharma stock in a portfolio I would sell some of Pfizer's and reinvest the cash in GSK's or Lilly's. PE of 19 is kind of high for a mature pharma play.
I would try to read the article about Eli Lilly: Cymbalta Patent Cliff before putting my money in Lilly though.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

To say that Petyr Baelish's feelings for Sansa Stark are complicated is a huge understatement. In the most recent episode of "Game of Thrones," he said that he views her like the daughter he could have had before kissing her in a very unfatherly manner.
The root of Littlefinger's (Aiden Gillen) feelings for Sansa (Sophie Turner) stem from his affection for her mother, Catelyn Stark, but their relationship has become more than just a second chance at Ned Stark's wife for him. In a video released by HBO, author George R.R. Martin explains how Petyr views Sansa.
"Other times, she's not Cat's daughter; she's like young Cat. She's his teenage fantasies returned again," he says. "Then his feelings to her are sexual and romantic, and those feelings overcome him at the moment when he sees Sansa in the snow."
He also explains, "At other times, he detaches himself from that, and he's less Petyr and more Littlefinger, and she's just another piece in the game of thrones."
"Game of Thrones" returns June 1 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO.

Basically, this is a thread in which to share and record details about catching 'em all. This isn't a dedicated trade thread or anything, but rather somewhere to share your progress and experiences with filling in the 'Dex, as well as asking questions and helping others with things, like sharing tips and tricks.
Topics can include, but aren't limited to, completing Regional Dexes in games past and present, managing to conquer the National Dex, or even managing to net yourself a LiveDex!
So I guess I'll start by sharing a bit of my experience. Never completed any Pokedexes at all, at least in the sense of capturing them all. Always relied on sightings and the like. I just never felt encouraged to gather up all the Pokemon from online trading and local trading, y'know? But in Gen VI, I realised how accessible Pokemon were in that gen, and now, I've got a nearly complete LiveDex, thanks to the GTS and XYORAS's huge Pokemon selections, only missing the Sinnoh & Unova Mythicals (sans Darkrai & Phione) and Volcanion, for obvious reasons. And since they're all upcoming events, my LiveDex will be complete most likely for December. To be honest, I kinda feel stupidly proud of it because I've done what I've always wanted to do with these games, and I'm really excited for Sun & Moon to introduce more Pokemon to collect!
Pokedexes Completed:
The Kalos Dexes (Pokemon X)
The Hoenn Dex (Pokemon Alpha Sapphire)
The National Dex* (Generation VI)
*excluding certain Pokemon the game doesn't consider necessary due to event status

American fire balloons to 20,232 acres, 66 percent contained
August 23, 2013
On the web
Follow the fire's progress here.
TRUCKEE, Calif. — State and federal emergency crews continue to battle a growing wildfire emitting heavy smoke in the Tahoe National Forest.
The American fire is burning in a heavily forested area of very steep terrain on Deadwood Ridge, about 10 miles northeast of Foresthill, Calif., roughly a half hour west of Lake Tahoe.
The U.S. Forest Service estimated its size at 20,232 acres as of Friday morning. It is now 66 percent contained. Officials estimate it will be 100 percent contained by noon on Sept. 1.
Roughly 1,812 personnel from Calfire and USFS and other agencies are fighting the fire, the start of which is under investigation.
"The fire is established in Antoine, Manilla and Scewrauger canyons and below the Barny Cavanah Ridge," officials said in a statement Friday. "Consumption of heavy fuels will continue to contribute to smoke in surrounding areas."
This week, the fire's information officer, Mike Johnson, said the blaze is believed to be human-caused, according to media reports, although he does not think it's arson.
The fire ignited at about 4:30 p.m. Aug. 10 and has destroyed four structures according to USFS.
At Tahoe/Truckee, smoke is expected to be thicker in the evenings, and should linger in the region until the fire is extinguished.
Heavy smoke from the 54,000-acre Rim fire near Sonora, Calif., filtered into the basin Wednesday. The air has been very thick with smoke Thursday and Friday, prompting agencies to issue air quality warnings.
Here are recommended ways to reduce smoke exposure, according to Placer County:
• Limit outdoor exertion and physical activity.
• If you have air conditioning, run the air conditioner on the "recirculation" setting.
• Leave smoke-impacted areas until conditions improve, if possible.
• Reduce unnecessary driving. If traveling through smoke-impacted areas, be sure that your vehicle's ventilation system is on re-circulate.
• Avoid the use of non-HEPA paper face mask filters, which are not capable of filtering out extra fine particulates.

Watch Carbon Nation
"A climate change solutions movie [that doesn't even care if you believe in climate change]"
"Carbon Nation" (2011) is an American documentary about possible solutions to the carbon footprint. Much of the movie consists of interviews with people who describe various technological or community-based solutions that will reduce humans' dependence on carbon fuels like oil. Many of the solutions described are already being implemented somewhere. To slow down climate change, they need to be used on a larger scale.

Blending a mission statement that mentions its goal is "to make the wearer's of our products feel confident about their style" and its founders enduring love for sneaker culture, contemporary watch manufacturer Meister spawns a diffusion line dubbed Prodigy. Because many of the California watchmaker's colorways are inspired by popular sneaker releases, it only felt right to develop a line devoted explicitly to the sneakerhead in all of us. Designed to complement the vast range of colorways found in the footwear industry, Prodigy has already begun releasing at select sneaker boutiques globally four distinct models – Spirit, Vision, Truth and Sense – all at extremely affordable price points. Grab a look at the said range and Prodigy's founding ethos at either its website or Instagram account @PRDGY.

Size distortions of tests of the null hypothesis of stationarity: Evidence and implications for applied work
It is common in applied econometrics to test the null hypothesis of a level-stationary process against the alternative of a unit root process. We show that the use of conventional asymptotic critical values for the stationarity tests of Kwiatkowski et al. (1992) and Leybourne and McCabe (1994) may cause extreme size distortions, if the model under the null hypothesis is highly persistent. The existence of such size distortions has not been recognized in the previous literature. We illustrate the practical importance of these distortions for the problem of testing for long-run purchasing power parity under the recent float. Size distortions of tests of the unit root null hypothesis may be overcome by the use of finite-sample or bootstrap critical values. We show that such corrections are not possible for tests of the null hypothesis of stationarity. Our results suggest that the common practice of viewing tests of stationarity as complementary to tests of the unit root null will tend to result in contradictions or in spurious acceptances of the unit root hypothesis. We conclude that tests of the null hypothesis of stationarity cannot be recommended for applied work unless the sample size is very large.

I am seeing a common pattern here - get the list of jobs that are yet to complete (JobSubmissionProtocol.jobsToComplete), get the list of running jobs, queued jobs, jobs that have started in the last N hours, last N jobs etc. We have two options here: - Get all jobs list from the JT and prune them on the client side. - Pass a filter to the JT asking for only those jobs that we need. When the number of jobs could get very long, the second option seems better - less data from JT to client, accomodates all the above types of listing jobs in a single RPC, for e.g., we then won't need a separate jobsToComplete.

Financing Your Education
Financing Your Education
At Academy Canada we know that attending college is a big investment. That is why it is so important to understand all of your options and how to budget properly. We have the information and the people to help you plan effectively.
Students attending Academy Canada have many options from which to select when financing their education. The following list summarizes the main sources:
Approximately 50% of Academy Canada's students receive a government student loan to pay for their education. Financial Aid is available from the provincial "Department of Advanced Education, Skills, and Labour", Student Financial Services Division to those who qualify. Detailed student loan information is available from the Business Office.
Both the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Government of Canada work together to provide students with financial assistance. Both loans and grants are available to help you pay for your post-secondary education. With one application you will be assessed for both federal and provincial assistance as well as most student grants. Student loans are needs based financial assistance programs intended to supplement the student and family resources. For the 2015-16 academic year, the NL Student Loan will be eliminated and there will be an increase in the NL Student Grant available (from $100 to $140 dollars per week). Effective August 1, 2015, all provincial funding will be in the form of a non-repayable student grant.
Additional details on the student loan program can be found at the end of this page.
Several Chartered Banks (notably TD Bank, CIBC, Bank of Montreal) have loan packages available for students attending Academy Canada. Check your local branch for details.
The provincial Department of Advanced Education, Skills, and Labour (AESL) has several programs to fund students, up to 100%, to attend post-secondary. Students who qualify may be eligible to receive financial support to pay for tuition, books, tools and equipment, transportation, living allowances and childcare. To learn more about these non-repayable contributions visit: http://www.aesl.gov.nl.ca/default.htm.
AES also has a range of training services available for persons with disabilities. Details are available at:
If you are a recognized member of one of Canada's First Nations, there are several funding sources available to help pay up to 100% of post-secondary costs. Some of the most common aboriginal groups that send students to Academy Canada include the Sheshatshiu Innu Nation Band Council, Innu Nation, Qalipu First Nation, and Nunatsiavut Government.
Each group has their own criteria and resources. Please visit your local Education representative for more details.
Individuals who have been injured on the job may be entitled to receive funding to retrain in post-secondary. Workplace NL rules and procedures can be complex so we encourage candidates to contact their Case Worker/Counsellor for more details.
Some students have access to funds from a Registered Education Saving Plan (RESP) that was established for them by a family member.
An RESP is an investment vehicle used by parents to save for their children's post-secondary education. A principle advantage of RESPs are the access to the Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG).
The Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG) is provided to complement RESP contributions, wherein the government of Canada contributes 20% of the first $2,500 in annual contributions made to an RESP. After changes introduced in the 2007 Canadian federal budget, the government may contribute up to $500 per year to a participating RESP. This income is available upon withdrawal from the RESP by a post-secondary recipient, with a maximum lifetime contribution of $50,000.
The government grants introduced in 2005, entitled Additional CESG, allowed an additional 10% or 20% for a total of an extra 30 or 40 cents on each dollar of the first $500 contributed to an RESP, depending on the family income of the beneficiary's primary caregiver. An application is made through the promoter of the RESP, which is often a bank, mutual fund company or group RESP provider.
Canada Learning Bond: The government of Canada also provides a Canada Learning Bond (CLB) to encourage low-income families to contribute to an RESP. Families with children born on or after January 1, 2004, and who receive the National Child Benefit, will receive an additional $500 CLB when they open an RESP and $100 for each year they remain eligible.
If you have access to RESP funding please speak with an Academy Canada Student Financial Advisor for information on how to use it for your training.
Some students choose to pay themselves and/or with the support of their families. Payment plans are arranged on either a semesterly or monthly basis and can be paid by cheque, cash, interac, money order, visa or mastercard.
There are several funding programs available to people with a wide range of disabilities. Some of the programs accessed by our students include those provided by:

Many students who attend Academy Canada (and all colleges/universities) get a student loan to help finance their education. For most people, this is their first loan and can be an intimidating process. The College Support Staff is here to help guide you through the process to make sure that you understand how it works, your responsibilities and how you can use the financing program responsibly.
It is important to understand that a student loan – whether offered through government or a bank – is a LOAN and must be repaid in the future to protect your credit rating. Fortunately, some programs (especially those offered by government) recognize that you are using the money to finance your education and require extra supports during repayment. To help, they offer good terms – including reasonable interest rates, no repayment while you are in school, and a wide range of RAP (Repayment Assistance Program) initiatives that are described below.
In some provinces like NL governments have non-repayable grants available for those who qualify. This is a significant help.
The list below summarizes some of the key things you need to understand at various stages in the life of a student loan.
No one wants students to default on their loans. To help make repayment easier, government has created a Repayment Assistance Program (RAP) that has several supports available to students, including:
1. Repayment Assistance Plan
2. Repayment Assistance Plan for Borrowers with a Permanent Disability
3. Revision of Terms
4. Debt Reduction Grants
Debt Reduction Grants are offered by the Provincial Government to help reduce the student loan debt of successful students. This program converts the provincial portion of your student loan into a non-repayable grant, pending you meet the eligibility requirements.
To qualify you must have:
5. Permanent Disability Benefit
The Permanent Disability Benefit is available to borrowers with a severe permanent disability. If you have a severe permanent disability, you may be eligible to have your loans immediately forgiven.
Note: With the elimination of the NL Student Loan, all financial assistance from the province is in the form of a non-repayable NL Student Grant effective August 1, 2015. If you receive provincial funding after August 1 you will not require a Debt Reduction Grant for that period.
It is important for everyone involved in the student loan program to understand their obligations, including:
Your responsibilities as a student include, but are not limited to:
The federal government provides access to post-secondary education through federally funded loans. The National Student Loan Service Centre (NSLSC) is managed by the federal government to administer and maintain all student loans belonging to all Canadian student loan borrowers.
The responsibilities of the NSLSC include those listed below, among many others.
Student Financial Services is a division of the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador's Department of Advanced Education, Skills, and Labour. Student Financial Services has various responsibilities, some of which include:
Post-secondary educational institutions have various responsibilities in supporting their student loan borrowers. Educational institutions play a fundamental role in helping students obtain, manage and repay student loans.
The responsibilities of educational institutions include, but are not limited to:
Educating and counseling students on the responsibilities of borrowing student loans, as well as educating borrowers on all available student financial assistance programs as well as all repayment assistance programs available.
Confirming student enrolment in school by signing a Confirmation of Enrolment form. The form is forwarded to the NSLSC as proof of full or part time studies.
Making all information and documents concerning student financial assistance and loan repayment available to students.
Keeping students up to date on all student loan issues, changes, or repayment assistance options.
Communicating with students, Student Aid and the NSLSC to resolve all issues that may arise regarding student loans.

The Pools Of Oheo Gulch
Haleakala National Park, Kipahulu District
The Pools of Oheo Gulch in Haleakala National Park is one of the most popular attractions in Hana. Located on the eastern part of Maui about 40 minutes past Hana. They are formed by Pipiwai Stream, which creates a series of pools and waterfalls on it's way to the ocean. And, when weather conditions are favorable, it's a great spot for swimming!
IMPORTANT NOTICE JAN 03/2017: Due to a rockslide at the Pools of Oheo they will be closed for swimming until further notice. We encourage guests to bring their suits in the event that they open again on your tour day. Read the notice.
Valley Isle Excursions' tour guides love to take people here because it has so much to see and do. On nice days, our guides like to stop here for an hour or more so you can enjoy Oheo Gulch and even hike a little bit upstream. You'll definitely need more time than the tour can provide to thoroughly explore Haleakala National Park. Why? Well, it boasts treasures like: a bamboo forest, 200+ ft. waterfalls, numerous swimming pools, which, in some instances, you can actually enjoy by yourself, and of course there is the fantastically surreal Haleakala Crater. The Oheo Gulch pools are perfectly nestled right next to the ocean and they're pretty easily accessible, which may be one reason why it's the most popular destination in the park.
We know that when you come to Maui, you come with an impressive bucket list. You definitely want to check off as many of your tropical dream experiences as possible. Perhaps visiting the rainforest and enjoying a swim under a beautiful waterfall is on your list? The Pools at Oheo Gulch allow you to enjoy swimming in natural pools of fresh, cool and clean water and they're just steps from the Pacific Ocean on the eastern coastline of Maui.
Hana and the surrounding areas are so impressive, with so many unique and fascinating nooks and crannies; a repeat visit for a more in-depth adventure on your next trip to Maui is a must. Unless, of course, you are going to be in Hana, either at one of the hotels, B&Bs or campgrounds for an extended stay, you probably won't be able to see everything the Kipahulu area of Haleakala National Park has to offer on a single day trip. It's just too big, with too much to dazzle and distract you. Valley Isle Excursions offers a great introduction to some of the most amazing, accessible, and oftentimes the least visited but most beautiful parts of Hana and the surrounding areas in just one full, long, fun day.
Never before have I written a review but your wonderful trip demanded it… Truly an unforgettable experience.
One of the best things we did in Maui. What a beautiful place. I highly recommend this tour.
recommendations about the banana bread and coconut nut chips that were the best things I ate on the island
Seeing incredible waterfalls while hiking the Pipiwai Trail is nothing short of awe-inspiring. On the way up the gulch, you will pass many hidden pools and waterfalls. Pipiwai Trail deserves its own trip.
On a Valley Isle Excursions' Road to Hana Tour there is so much to see and do before you get to Oheo Gulch that you will not have the time for the hike up to the infinity pool or to reach the edge of the bamboo forest during this tour stop.
If you are determined to spend the lion's share of the tour exploring the Oheo Gulch, we suggest that you let your driver and guide know that your biggest priority is to spend time in Haleakala National Park. Our tour groups are quite small, at most only 12 people, so we can usually be quite flexible on the Hana stops and the timing at each if everyone is in agreement. Our Maui tour guides' top priority is to make sure that all of our guests have their very best day on Maui and it's with Valley Isle Excursions.
Let us know!
See what's happening.
Pickups Begin at 6:15am…
See where you are going.

Didn't start a new job
today yesterday. Turns out what they wanted me to come in for was to ask some questions they forgot to ask me in my last interview. Why they couldn't ask me those five or so questions over the phone, I don't know. They had told me when they called last Tuesday that I was supposed to bring my Social Security card and ID with me, so I assumed that meant I had the job. Maybe they told me that by mistake? I wasn't asked for them while I was there.
Now I'm anxious. I don't for sure have a job, plus I was denied unemployment benefits. If I don't get this job, things could get real difficult. I can appeal the denial of unemployment benefits, but I don't know how long that will take, and it may not make any difference.
*sigh* I guess all I can do now is hope and pray I have the job after all. And also I better start up job search activities again in case I don't. This sucks.

Well it depends on your preferred sound signature. There's so many different preferences around here. Some people love a lot of treble and bass and others love forward sounding mids. I want a fairly balanced signature with some engaging mids. I'm usually willing to give up a little treble for more bass or more forward mids. In the last year I've disliked closed headphones, but these actually have a good enough soundstage to make me not care if it's closed.
I don't want to give anyone the impression that these are bass heavy. They have very good bass extension (probably better than the M50), but the bass on them is definitely more controlled than that of the old M50 I had.
My first M50 had really bloated bass. Supposedly the newer M50s have less bass and more treble? That's what i've heard anyway. My M50 made the D2000 (when desktop amped) seem almost bass light in comparison!
The KNS-8400 is closer to the K702/K701 IMO. The treble on both can be a bit bothersome..at first. The treble on the 8400 smoothed out a tad after 3 days of burn-in. Maybe I just had a goofy pair and there is a possibility some pairs won't need any burn-in. My 6400 definitely did not.
My 6400 has a really smooth signature. I could listen to them for 8 hours without fatigue maybe. It depends on the recording. Some of my Jpop stuff is painful to listen to even on this headphone, but less so than say the K702 or even the K601. It's maybe a tad more energetic than the HD-598 I think. Comparing them is the last thing I want to do, but I think I like the KRK more in some ways. Just sounds a little more clear.
The 6400 is good at fooling me sometimes. Often it'll sound like crap and it's the recording. I wish I could say it's forgiving, but not as much as it could be. I still remember one day thinking the sound clarity was awful, but that's when I finally realized it was the song itself and not the headphone. I was so worried there for about 2 seconds. It really is amazing how many CDs there are that are so poorly mastered and they sound so bad. I have a Joe Hisashi CD that's nearly unlistenable due to the sound quality. This is ripped to FLAC or ALAC.
Basically these things to me are really quite accurate based on the recording itself. They don't really change anything. If anything they do maybe have slightly forward mids. Not as much as the HD-598 though.
My suggestion is to demo these at a local store if you can. If not, see if you can return them if you don't like them. I bought my pair at Guitar Center with a service plan for under $100. Got some coupon for giving them my email address.
I can't wait until a few more people have tried these. I'm not easily impressed with headphones. It seems these days I must only like about 10% of what I try
To me $99 is a stupid good deal for these considering how good they sound.
BTW for your genres the KRK KNS-6400 would be a good match. It's one of the few headphones that's nearly good for every genre.
Also...I had the K702/K702 about oh...4 times before and even went out and bought a new amp for them TWICE. I can say for sure that music on these would be about 10x more engaging than on the K702. OK, maybe not classical, but the K702 has that advantage due to it's soundstage. I'd take this for female vocals over the K702 any day. I listen to a lot of female vocals, acoustic music, even asian pop.
Another good alternative to the M50 is the Koss Pro DJ100. I probably love it more than the KNS-6400, but it needs an amp at all times and it's best to change out it's stock pads for MDR-V6 pads. The DJ100 has even more forward mids and even more bass than the 6400. Female vocals are even better on the DJ100, but it's a harder headphone for people to like maybe. The DJ100's soundstage is very good, but the 6400's is even larger. The DJ100 is what made me sell the M50. There's a comparison I did in other threads. Even the HFI-680, MDR-V6, SRH-840 and ESW9a lost out to the DJ100.
I had decided on the Audio Technica M-50 but after reading this thread I'm thinking about the KNS 6400. I'm now using the AKG 701, and the open phone realy,realy bothers others around me. I also find that the bass is thin on the 701 and they are too analytical and I get listening fatigue using them. Im using a doge tube headphone amp and using FLAC files through a stand alone DAC. I also have a momba portable amp for my sanza fuze. So my question is which closed headphone the Audio Technica M-50 or the KNS 6400 would be most likely to keep me happy (for a while,anyhow)? Is there a different closedphone that would be better?
I listen to electronica,female jazz and some music from the 70's (Pink Floyd ect.)
thanks Bri

Out There
Ashes to ashes, dust to Dusty
Dusty in London
Dusty in Memphis
Dusty Springfield
Rhino Records
Dusty Springfield died March 3 at the age of 59, felled by the breast cancer she had been battling for years. Just two weeks before her death at her London home, a publicist at Rhino was lamenting the fact that Springfield wasn't available to do interviews to coincide with the bonus-tracks-added (re-)rerelease of her finest album, 1969's Dusty in Memphis--among the greatest, and worst, albums ever made. Springfield had been little heard from in several years, rarely appearing in public and only occasionally going into the studio. And even then, the results have ranged from intriguing (a 1988 collaboration with the Pet Shop Boys) to forgettable (1995's A Very Fine Love). And so she existed in 1999 more as a myth than anything else, the subject of so many reissues simply because there would never again be anything new from her.
Dusty in Memphis remains Springfield's masterpiece--and the most inexplicable record ever made, especially now that Rhino has tacked on 14 extra songs, one of which is an endless rendition of "You've Got a Friend." Ostensibly meant to prove that this white Brit could cool-soul it up with the best of Atlantic's roster, the record is one of those brilliant disasters you hear about but never actually listen to. This is what your parents put on when they wanted R&B in 1969--only without all the B. One minute, the disc is soulful like Sunday-morning church on Saturday night: Organ player Bobby Emmons and guitarist Reggie Young help Dusty get nasty with the "Son of a Preacher Man." Never has something tried to sound so gritty and ended up so slick; it's a tease without the follow-through. Then, five songs later, Springfield's wallowing in the sugar and sap of "The Windmills of Your Mind," written by Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman, and Michel Legrand--who had become rich and famous writing for Barbra Streisand.

For every oddball gem--Springfield had a thing for Randy Newman, covering the mini-majestic "I Don't Want to Hear it Anymore" and "Just One Smile" on Memphis, and "I Think It's Going to Rain Today" on the odds-and-sods Dusty in London--there are so many schmaltzy throwaways that these two discs are more frustrating than rewarding. She had the range to make the small songs larger than life (cf. Goffin-King's "No Easy Way Down," Bacharach-David's "In the Land of Make Believe"), but Springfield could never quite make the big moments her own. Underrated in life, she's no doubt going to be overrated in death. Too bad both ways.
