The NFL owners received a setback Monday when Judge Susan Nelson ordered an end to their lockout with no stay to the decision. That means, in effect, that unless the owners can successfully appeal the decision in a higher court, the league would have to open business immediately.
The ruling amounts to an early victory for the players, but there are still further legal battles ahead.

Well, that was efficient.
In just one week, the Missouri General Assembly managed to pass an economic development bill — a feat that often eludes the legislature during its regular sessions.
That Boeing shopping expedition seemed to bring out the legislature's competitive streak.
The measure that the Senate passed earlier and the House overwhelmingly agreed to on Friday would provide about $1.7 billion over 23 years if Boeing would expand its facility near Lambert International Airport in St. Louis and move production of its 777X passenger jet here.
That's only a fraction of the $9 billion worth of incentives the state of Washington has held out in a desperate effort to get Boeing to keep its facility there. But the machinists union in Puget Sound wouldn't agree to the concessions demanded by the world's largest aircraft manufacturer.
Kansas City unions so far appear somewhat more eager to please. Construction workers have pledged to work around the clock, without overtime, to build a facility in record time.
St. Louis has some of the ingredients mentioned in a company document obtained by theSt. Louis Post Dispatch
. Boeing wants a 9,000-foot runway to launch the planes. Check. It needs easy access to a major highway and rail lines for parts deliveries. Check. It wants "significant" tax breaks. Big check.
But St. Louis does not have, and never will have, a seaport. And that's a key item on Boeing's "desired" list.
I still suspect Boeing's overtures to Missouri, Kansas and other states are all about wringing more inducements from the state of Washington. But it was refreshing to see the legislature stay focused and get something done.
So does this herald a new era of cooperation in Jefferson City?
Not a chance.
If anything, the Boeing saga has the potential to ramp up pressure from Republicans to make Missouri a "right to work" state, meaning workers would not have to pay union dues as a condition of employment. Some lawmakers have suggested the state would be more appealing to the airline maker if its unions were neutered.
Few things say "gridlock" like a full-out war over unions. But that might be an unfortunate byproduct of this week's special session.

PACK Global Adult
Practical Approach to Care Kit Adult
In 2011 and 2012, PACK was piloted in Botswana and PALM PLUS in the Zomba district of Malawi. As awareness of the PACK programme grew, the KTU was approached by clinicians and health managers working in primary care in Mexico, Kenya, Uganda, Mali, India, Zanzibar, and The Gambia and by role-players working across numerous NGO's and community based organisations about adapting PACK for use in their countries or organisations.
Partnering with the BMJ
The KTU team realised they would need to work with a partner to respond to this global interest. Trusted by healthcare providers, and with a global footprint of representatives and offices on all continents and an Evidence Centre team of 50 people, BMJ (British Medical Journal publishing group) was ideally placed to be such a partner. BMJ and KTU are also strongly aligned in their strategic goals of "improving primary care, especially in underserved communities" and enabling a "Healthier World". The organisations therefore partnered in 2015 to enable global use of the PACK programme
PACK Adult Global – print and eBook
The PACK content and training are intended to be localised according to local clinical protocols and practice, and where necessary translated, in each country in which the programme is implemented. However, this requires considerable engagement and support from those responsible for primary care service delivery, and commitment for at least a year to localise the content and conduct pilot training. As individuals, organisations, health departments and ministries progress with primary care development programmes, many role players have requested access to the generic PACK Global Adult version of the content, in a hardcopy or digital format. BMJ and KTU have therefore launched a generic Global edition of PACK Adult. A copy of the Global edition of PACK Adult can be viewed and purchased at: www.packglobal.org

The decision affirmed a district judge's summary judgment and found that the plaintiff, ITC Ltd., had already abandoned its trademark in the United States and therefore could...

Hurricane Irene made landfall near Cape Hatteras, NC, on Saturday morning and then sluggishly churned its way up the Eastern Seaboard.
The cape is part of Hatteras Island, one of those barrier islands they call the Outer Banks. It has been hit by hurricanes 104 times in the last 140 years. It gets a direct hit about once every 4.34 years. Hurricanes affect Hatteras every 1.35 years on average. The last time was September 2010 when Hurricane Earl passed within 70 miles. In 2003, Isabel hit Hatteras hard, causing extensive damage to the entire Outer Banks
In August of 1889, William Aiken, a surgeon and his wife, Anna who was seven months pregnant, were on a short voyage along the coast. According to one account,
Their ship was caught in a hurricane, floundering against the rocky shore off Cape Hatteras, and William and Anna were handed to safety with the air of a human chain formed by the crew only a short time before a wave washed away the deckhouse where their cabin was located. But Anna suffered no ill effects, and she and her husband reached their new home . . . There on August 5, 1899, their first child was born . . ."
That child was Conrad Aiken, a poet I profiled a few weeks back. He wrote the following poem which is so terribly apropos for this weekend.
Hatteras Calling
Southeast, and storm, and every weather vane
shivers and moans upon its dripping pin,
ragged on chimneys the cloud whips, the rain
howls at the flues and windows to get in,
the golden rooster claps his golden wings
and from the Baptist Chapel shrieks no more,
the golden arrow in the southeast sings
and hears on the roof the Atlantic Ocean roar.
Waves among wires, sea scudding over poles,
down every alley the magnificence of rain,
dead gutters live once more, the deep manholes
hollow in triumph a passage to the main.
Umbrellas, and in the Gardens one old man
hurries away along a dancing path,
listens to music on a watering-can,
observes among the tulips the sudden wrath,
pale willows thrashing to the needled lake,
and dinghies filled with water; while the sky
smashes the lilacs, swoops to shake and break,
till shattered branches shriek and railings cry.
Speak, Hatteras, your language of the sea:
scour with kelp and spindrift the stale street:
that man in terror may learn once more to be
child of that hour when rock and ocean meet.

A Yellow Watering Can
Sometimes, faithfully nurturing relationships with the people God has entrusted specifically to our care gets mundane. The seemingly menial task of filling a can with water and taking it to each plant regularly is vital to healthy growth. If we do not intentionally water and edify, relationships begin to wilt.

Ephesians 4.1-3 What is your vocation? In the Strong's Concordance, the word "vocation" is defined as an "invitation" or a "calling." In essence, the Lord asks us, "Would you do this job for me?" Marriage, singleness, secular work, ministry work, motherhood, infertility, sisterhood, etc. are some of our respective callings as women. These callings or invitations are from whom?

He may not be mentioned in the same breath as some of the elite point guards in the Big East — but Vincent Council should be. Providence's junior point guard could be as talented as any player at his position in the best conference in college basketball but just lacks the necessary supporting cast to consistently keep his team competing at a high level. An underrated facilitator, Council will have to improve his outside shooting and ability to lead if he's to help the Friars escape the basement of the Big East.
One thing you never did when watching Ed Cooley's teams at Fairfield was associate them with being soft — but right now, that's the case at Providence. After multiple years of playing minimal defense and showing only small doses of fight under Keno Davis, Cooley must fight every day to make his program one synonymous with effort and determination.
With only eight scholarship players on his roster, there haven't been many surprises that Cooley has been able to embrace thus far in practice but one has been sophomore guard Bryce Cotton. A jet in the open floor, the 6-foot-1 Cotton should give Providence a quality third perimeter player to pair with Council and sophomore wing Gerard Coleman.
The key to any rebuilding situation is recruiting and the Friars already have the pieces in place to give themselves a running start a year from now. Cooley and associate head coach Andre Lafleur have already worked feverishly to get commitments from two players ranked in the top 50 nationally in point guard Kris Dunn and off-guard Ricky Ledo, a Rhode Island native whose talent level is on par with any recruit in the Class of 2012.
Every program needs a glue guy and Providence might have found theirs in freshman combo forward LaDontate Henton. A versatile lefty at 6-foot-6, the crafty Henton is the favorite to start at power forward and eerily resembles former Cincinnati wing Rashad Bishop, who helped the Bearcats reach the NCAA Tournament last season.
There is no quick fix for this program, it's going to be a slow and arduous process. Before Providence can worry about climbing the Big East standings, they first must worry about getting themselves ready to compete on each and every possession during each and every practice. Cooley's energy and ability to attract marquee talent will help re-energize the Friars starved fan base but he can't single handidly change the mindset of his players. For this team to be a nuisance in the Big East, they have to become more desperate — something we haven't seen from a Providence team in quite some time.

Upcoming Kdramas August-October
A look at the interesting and/or high-profile dramas premiering in the next three months. So far the year has been packed with entertaining but not exactly well-executed dramas (with the exception of City Hunter and a handful of others) so hopefully some of these dramas will change that.
An interesting thing hapened in the first week of August in that one of the occupational hazards of the Asian drama production world kicked in: two series both starring Uee began airing. Ojakgyo Brothers, which she recently shot and which also stars Joo Won, began airing on KBS on the 6th, while Birdie Buddy, which was filmed months and months ago but couldn't get picked up by a network, finally saw the light of day on the 8th on tvN.
Can't Lose -August 24 - Set to follow Heartstrings, this drama stars Choi Ji Woo and Yoon Sang Hyun as a pair of married lawyers in the midst of a divorce. It takes a light approach to two people who were once in love and gradually fall in love again. Directing is PD Lee Jae Dong of Thank You, which is one of the more solid dramas out there. The director has already said that he's satisfied with the chemistry between his leads, and there were bursts of laughter during the first script reading, both of which are very good signs. Claire's note: Choi JI Woo plus Yoon Sang Hyun plus the director of Thank You, one of my favorite dramas of all time? Bring it on!!!! Plus, I love lawyer dramas - the leads are always intelligent and the dialogue is usually incisive. No-one can trade insults quite like lawyers. The title I suspect has a double (triple?) meaning in that neither can stand to lose their cases, both intend to win the divorce case, and ultimately, neither can stand to lose each other.
High Kick 3: The Revenge of the Short Legged- September 19- Not only does this drama have a title which trumps almost all bad-sequel-titles ever, but, really, is there any need for a third High Kick series? Also so far the cast is mostly older actors (Yoon Kye Sang of all people, and Ahn Nae Sung) in defiance of the series' name as a vehicle for young actor breakthroughs. Claire's note: It's funny to think how much I loved Yoon Kye Sang after Who Are You? and how I've gradually given up on him as I've watched him in a string of mediocre supporting roles since. I don't think he'll ever break out, nor that he necessarily deserves to, so I've transferred my affections to Park Shi Hoo, who had a similar upward trajectory in at first supporting roles, landed a leading role, and has been rocking it ever since - that level of charisma and thespian skill can't be ignored.
Poseidon-sometime in September-Choi Siwon (Athena, Oh! My Lady) and Lee Shi-young, who played the bitchy-but-kind-of-awesome secondary female in Playful Kiss, star in this drama about the maritime police force. Both are members of what sounds like the Coast Guard crossed with the Navy. Lee Sung-jae is their boss the police chief. Claire's note: Yawn. I'd be excited about this with a different cast but both Choi Siwon and Lee Shi-young are weaker actors, and I'm frankly surprised they were cast together. Lee Sung-jae on the other hand is awesome and one of my actor crushes (he blew me away as neurotic, brilliant, upright Mi-gook in Lawyers of Korea). I'm tempted to watch just for him but with the plot and leads so underwhelming I'll probably pass.
A Thousand Days' Promise - September 26- Kim Rae-won's comeback drama after his recent release from the military, this also stars Su Ae (9 End 2 Outs, Athena) in a drama about a woman with Alzheimer's and the man who falls for her and stands by her. Kim Rae Won reportedly read many movie and drama scripts before choosing this role. Writing is revered scriptwriter Kim Soo Hyun of 2010 drama LIfe is Beautiful, which is considered groundbreaking for its portrayal of gay romance on the small screen. Also known as Forget Me Not, this will follow Warrior Baek Dong-soo. Claire's note: I laughed out loud when the casting for this was finalized. Why? Because Kim Rae-won and Su Ae are two of perhaps five Kdrama actors whom I simply don't like. Kim Rae Won has a penchant for choosing mediocre projects in my opinion - Gourmet was just bland - and I find his acting style a little over-the-top. It doesn't help that I don't find him attractive either. As for Su Ae, I like her only in certain roles - really enjoyed her in 9 End 2 Outs, but I think she has a limited range and she just doesn't do it for me somehow. Which is why I was filled with absolute glee to note that the drama powers that be, to my extreme good fortune, had somehow cast these two together, thus ensuring they won't be paired with and drag down another actor that I like, and that they'd been cast in a drama I have zero interest in. Alzheimer's? No thank you. If you want your heart broken into a thousand pieces, watch A Moment to Remember instead, the fiercely acted, heartbreakingly tender film starring Son Ye Jin and Jung Woo Sung, which is also about a man who falls for a woman who develops Alzheimer's. All the requisite pain and in only two hours - why go through 20 hours of torture in a drama for the same result?
Tree with Deep Roots- September 28-Jang Hyuk stars in this historical thriller as a man in the reign of King Sejong who starts investigating a series of murders. He uncovers a conspiracy involving a group of brilliant men trying to control the fate of Korea. Han Suk Yu is King Sejong, while Song Joon-ki is young King Sejong. It also stars Shin Se-kyung (High Kick through the Roof, Queen Seon Duk). Claire's note: This could be pretty fantastic, and the concept hasn't been done before. The cast is good so it really all depends on the execution.
Man of Honor - Chun Jung-myung and Park Min Young star in this drama about a former hotshot baseball player who's been relagated to second status. When he gets injured, he meets nurse's aid Jae-in, who overcomes hardships as the story goes on. The PD and writer are the team behind last year's juggernaut Baker King Kim Tak Gu. Claire's note: I honestly can't decide which has the better combination of cast+director: this drama or Can't Lose. Right now I'm leaning toward Can't Lose, but Chun Jung-myung and Park Min Young are essentially the younger versions of the revered Choi and Yoon in that they're at the top of their age group in acting skills. The plot sounds like nothing much, but Baker King was such a solid, solid, well-written drama that I have great faith for this one (if I remember right, the plot of Baker King sounded dull also).
Iris 2 and Live in Style (Ki Tae Young) are also set to premier in October but little news has been released about either yet.

ARSENE WENGER last night admitted he faces the toughest battle of his career to stop heartbroken Thierry Henry from leaving Arsenal.
Henry's disappointment at losing last night's Champions League final was typified by his outburst towards Barcelona and referee Terje Hauge after the final whistle.
That shows his passion and despair after what was so nearly the defining moment of his career as he came desperately close to leading Arsenal to glory.
What is difficult to work out now is whether Henry is more likely to leave Arsenal because they lost, or if he would have gone had they had won. He would then have achieved everything possible with the Gunners.
Does he now stay at Arsenal for another crack at the European Cup and lead Arsene Wenger's young players to a new era of success?
The Arsenal boss believes he will stay as Henry prepares to announce the most eagerly-awaited decision in world football, with only one year left on his contract.
Wenger said: "I have to prepare for the new season. There are many young players in the team, they are progressing in the future and they will be a big, big team.
"But I need Thierry Henry to achieve that. He is so influential in what we are trying to do at Arsenal.
"He can help our team become a major force in the world. With him we can achieve that.
"There's not much time before he announces what he will do. We want to keep him and I hope that he will announce that he is staying. I believe he will."
Wenger is clearly desperate for Henry to stay and last night he showed exactly why, because the skipper led by example and with his heart.
In the opening stages he played like a man possessed, but saw two efforts produce great saves from Barcelona keeper Victor Valdes.
Henry used his pace, power and aggression to scare the Spaniards but took some heavy punishment from Carles Puyol and Rafael Marquez, who found kicking was the only way to stop him.
Henry also delivered the precision free-kick for Sol Campbell's opener and ran his socks off all night. Henry has something of everything and in a team like Barcelona, he would flourish. He would certainly win the European Cup if he went to the Nou Camp.
But Henry also has a great love and affection for Arsenal and that is the key to Wenger keeping him as, at 29, he could become an even bigger player.
Wenger has built a young and talented team with Cesc Fabregas, Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Eboue outstanding.
Robert Pires is on his way to Villarreal and that signals the changing of the guard. But while he is 32 and on the wane, Henry is at the peak of his powers.
Arsenal have enjoyed a glorious European campaign but fell short in the Premiership race because they lacked quality in depth.
Henry is at the crossroads now.
No Arsenal fan would begrudge him a new opportunity because he has been a joy to watch and a great entertainer ever since he joined from Juventus for #10million in 1999.
He has won many trophies and Golden Boots plus success with France too.
His only mistake was to suggest in January that he was staying, but people forget he tempered it by saying the club must match his ambition.
Overall, Arsenal fans will be disappointed rather than bitter. They know that Henry is irreplaceable.
Barcelona are leading the chase along with AC Milan, but the reality is every club in the world will want him. Last night Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard admitted he would love to sign him.
Rijkaard said: "It's important that the club keeps on working and tries to play for the main events and that is logical.
"But you will have to ask the directors whether we will sign him."
Henry's fellow Frenchman, Barca winger Ludovic Giuly said: "I believe he is coming after the World Cup."
William Hill make Henry 2/5 to leave and 7/4 to be at Arsenal next season. He is 6/5 to join Barcelona.
SOME of the Brazilian's trickery and skill was sublime, but he was waving an imaginery card at the ref constantly and did not cause the Arsenal defence too many problems. In the head-to-head with Thierry Henry, it was the Arsenal striker who often shone brighter. Rating: 8
Arsenal's captain and talisman looked like a man possessed as he ran all night. But he should have scored after three minutes and his poorly-hit shot straight at Victor Valdes when put clean through in the second half will haunt him for years. Rating: 8
The Barca keeper made a stunning early save from Thierry Henry and was helpless on the goal. Made another great stop from Ljungberg in second half. 8
The full back did not have much defending to do and was able to bomb forward at every opportunity. Easy game for him but played well. 7
Thierry Henry's pace and strength will give him nightmares for weeks. Not quite the world class defender that we were given to believe. 6
Desperately unlucky to be penalised for a foul which never was on Emmanuel Eboue on the build up to Sol Campbell's opening goal. 7
How did Arsenal's reserve midfielder end up at left back for Barcelona? A barely decent game and lucky to survive after a fierce foul on Emmanuel Eboue. 6
Subbed at half-time because he had so little to do. Was supposed to shield his defence and yet Arsenal were pinned back after going down to ten men. 6
Ineffective and the gamble of playing the Dutchman to add steel to Barca's midfield backfired. Lacks the same quality and class as the rest. 6
A quality player but rarely got a chance to shine last night. Some of the Portuguse international's passing was superb but he did not dominate enough. 7
Was a thorn in Ashley Cole's side and some of his long range shooting forced excellent saves. Was denied a goal by the referee's refusal to wave play on. 7
A constant threat throughout. He was unlucky to be pulled down by Lehmann and saw a shot brilliantly saved by Almunia before scoring the equaliser 9
Iniesta (Edmilson 46) Struggled to impose himself among Arsenal's midfield 7
Larsson (Van Bommel 61) Turned the game by making both goals. Still a class player 8
Belletti (Oleguer 71) Scored heroic winner .8
From hero to villain in the space of 18 minutes. His night went horribly wrong after being sent off for pulling down Barcelona goal hero Samuel Eto'o. 5
There is no doubt that he dived to win the free kick which led to Sol Campbell's opening goal. But Eboue showed no fear and his remarkable season continues. 8
His redemption is nearly complete. Just three months after going AWO L, Campbell heade d Arsenal into a remarkable lead. An incredible story 8
Fantastic performance. He looks unbeatable at times with his pace, determination and resilience. Was Arsenal's best defender and looks world class. 8
Still not fully fit and yet worked hard throughout up against Barcelona's pacy and dangerous right winger Ludovic Giuly. A very good but tough night 7
Had another excellent game in central midfield. Stood firm in the anchor role, stemmed the flow of Barcelona's attacks and passed well. 7
Rarely got a chance to show his real ability going forward. Instead, this was about trying to stop Barcelona from playing. Great work rate. 7
A real star in the Champions League. He ran himself into the ground and did an invaluable job even if much of his work goes unnoticed. 7
A surprise selection in the first place ahead of Jose Antonio Reyes. Sadly his night was cut short as he was sacrificed for Manuel Almunia. 5
The Swedish midfielder began at his very best, the sort of form he was in just before the last World Cup. But he lost Belletti when the Brazilian fired the winner. 7
Almunia (Pires 18) Forced on after Lehmann's dismissal, made a brilliant save to deny Eto'o 7
Flamini (Fabregas 74) No chance to impress, unlucky to have missed out from start 6
Reyes (for Hleb 85) Too late to make impact 6

'By aligning with HireVue, we are enhancing the PeopleMatter Platform to simplify the candidate review time, making it easier to select the best fit job candidates.'- Nate DaPore, PeopleMatter
Charleston, SC and Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) December 10, 2013
Hiring the best hourly employees and engaging them with a positive, personalized interview experience just got a little easier as HireVue and PeopleMatter today announced a partnership. HireVue – a talent interaction platform that brings the job interview process into the digital age with on-demand style video and phone interviews – is making business personal again through video, mobile and social enriched workplace interactions. PeopleMatter, the only complete cloud-based workforce management platform designed to change the way the hourly workforce works, offers simple, smart software to hire, train and schedule employees. This partnership redefines employee-employer interaction using disruptive technology to provide a positive candidate experience while streamlining HR processes for employers.
"PeopleMatter partners with industry leaders that develop innovative technologies to improve the employee-employer relationship," said Nate DaPore, President and CEO of PeopleMatter. "By aligning with HireVue, we are enhancing the PeopleMatter Platform to simplify the candidate review time, making it easier to select the best-fit job candidates."
HireVue's on demand digital interviews allow managers to quickly review more job candidates at their convenience from their computer or smart device. Managers are able to virtually see a candidate, rather than just their resume, before deciding to bring them in for an in-person interview. Using HireVue ensures that job candidates – who can easily become brand advocates or not based on the type of interaction they have during the hiring process – experience a "wow" factor that differentiates the employers from others they may be considering.
PeopleMatter pre-employment assessments screen candidates for role specific traits. After they pass this level of the screening process, HireVue adds increased clarity with its high definition interview process. Candidates are given a voice and can tell their story at a time that's convenient for them. Managers screen and evaluate the best candidates and choose to spend valuable time with only the best candidates. This partnership combines the best that PeopleMatter has to offer with the premier Talent Interaction Platform making for one of the most powerful hourly package offerings on the market today.
Hourly workforces typically have a high rate of turnover and attrition. By hiring employees that fit the position and engaging them from the moment they apply, retention is increased and labor costs are reduced.
"Retention rates are exponential when managers can listen to the candidates story," say Chip Luman, COO of HireVue. "HireVue's talent interaction provides greater insight than previously available and when combined with PeopleMatter both managers and candidates win."
Learn best practices about capitalizing on the four key moments that make or break each hiring decision by attending a free webinar, Tues., Dec. 11 at 1 p.m. ET. Register to hear experts from HireVue and PeopleMatter present "Time To Hire: The 4 Hiring Moments That Matter Most and How to Make the Most of Them" or visit http://bit.ly/IOGD8E.
About HireVue
HireVue is an amazing new way to interview – on demand! Users simply browse, watch, rate and share the interviews they want, on their own time – just like streaming their favorite movies – even from a smart phone. Recognized by Inc. magazine in 2013 as a top 500 fastest-growing private company, by Deloitte as a top 50 company in Deloitte's Annual Fast 500 and by HR Executive Magazine as a Top HR Product of 2012, HireVue's Digital Interview Platform™ also helps improve interviews of all types, including in person, phone and video interviews. Digital question, feedback and collaboration tools remove hassle and make interviewing up to ten times faster and nine times cheaper.

Preterm Labor and Lupus
I was really hoping to avoid preterm labor during this pregnancy since I've been working hard at resting and incubating at home. Unfortunately my lupus has just been quite active during this whole pregnancy… Last Saturday (a little over a week ago) I went into preterm labor at 32w4d. Luckily this was a already a fewRead more

Call it the Forever 21 effect, or fast fashion. Americans are buying, and discarding, clothes more quickly than ever. The average American throws 54 pounds of clothes and shoes into the trash each year. That adds up to about 9 million tons of wearables that are sent into the waste stream, according to the Environmental Protection Agency — a 27% increase in a mere eight years.
Although resale shops are a good option for clothes that still have some fashion value, and charities will take items that are well past their prime, there are still an awful lot of ink-stained dress shirts and moth-eaten sweaters that find their way to the dump.
What to do with that favorite old shirt you ruined by inadvertently spilling a glass of red wine down its front, or that well-worn pair of slacks that finally split at the seams, or that dress you loved last year but now wouldn't wear to save your life?
There are a wide variety of options that are better than the trash bag, including charities (such as Goodwill and the Salvation Army), resale shops (Buffalo Exchange, Give + Take) and the retailers that first sold them to you.

Which future fantasy stars stood out at Vegas summer league?
We sent our fantasy expert to the Vegas summer league to scout out the top rookies, second-year players and young sleepers for the 2018-19 campaign. Here's what he gleaned.
We sent our fantasy expert to the Vegas summer league to scout out the top rookies, second-year players and young sleepers for the 2018-19 campaign. Here's what he gleaned.
How does the blockbuster trade that sent Kawhi Leonard to Toronto and DeMar DeRozan to San Antonio impact their fantasy value and that of those around them? André Snellings breaks it down from every angle.
From LeBron James to DeMarcus Cousins and more, plenty of big names have already switched uniforms in free agency. Here's how their fantasy values, and those of their teammates, will change.
LeBron's move to L.A. could have seismic implications for the NBA, but how will his arrival impact his new teammates and his own fantasy production?
Mohamed Bamba, Deandre Ayton, Luka Doncic, Marvin Bagley III and Trae Young are among the top fantasy basketball rookies for 2018-19. Who will be the best?
As we head toward the offseason, who fills out the top 10? How high do young stars like Embiid, Mitchell and Ball rank?
Who were the standouts and disappointments at NBA summer league? Our experts answer the big questions.
Whether he wanted to be or not, Collin Sexton is the bridge to the post-LeBron Cavs. Check out what we saw from Day 10 of the Las Vegas Summer League.
While Miles Bridges didn't have the most efficient showing in Las Vegas, it's clear he adds a level of unpredictability to the Charlotte Hornets.
It is premature to throw the word "hope" around New York's chances to contend in 2018-19, but the Knicks' future prospects have shined in Las Vegas.
Chicago native Jabari Parker is returning to his hometown after signing a two-year, $40 million deal with the Bulls, according to sources.
Isaiah Thomas agreed to a one-year, $2 million deal with the Nuggets, sources said, as he joins his fourth team in a year. It's high-reward, low-risk for Denver and a chance for Thomas to re-establish himself.
Veteran guard Jeremy Lin, who played only one game last season because of a ruptured patellar tendon, has been traded by the Nets to the Hawks, league sources told ESPN.
Who is the MVP? Who is the biggest bust? Who is the ROY? Our experts cast their votes and name their top breakout players for next season.
This season's rookie class is chock-full of fantasy promise, but who are the best long-term bets among the likes of Lonzo Ball, Ben Simmons and Donovan Mitchell? What about Markelle Fultz and Jayson Tatum?
The 2017-18 season isn't even in the books, and our experts are already scouting ahead. Which players are likely to fly under the radar heading into the 2018-19 season?
In fantasy, it always helps to identify potential breakout players as soon as possible. Here are a few names who could make that leap next season.
Boogie has shown elite upside, but he has had injury issues. Jokic is still a work in progress. Who is the better keeper?
Victor Oladipo, Jimmy Butler and Kyrie Irving have similar fantasy values this season -- but who is the best long-term keeper?
The Detroit Pistons' big man took some big steps forward this season. Is his fantasy game going to continue to expand?
The fantasy basketball landscape has changed significantly in recent years so John Cregan conducted a fantasy audit of this past season to reveal the biggest and most important statistical developments.
Kyrie Irving's surgery went "exactly as planned," Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge said in a statement Saturday.
AD was never expected to reach this offensive peak coming out of college. Now he's a blend of David Robinson and Dirk Nowitzki -- right before each won his first MVP.
As the season winds to a close, you're going to need to bank on the players who got you here. But not everyone will deliver on their promise, so which guys are our experts down on relative to their popularity among fantasy hoops managers?
Danny Ainge's shrewd instincts as Boston's general manager have allowed the Celtics to assemble a talented roster differently than the way other teams, such as the 76ers and Clippers, have done.
Regardless of whether the Chicago Bulls are formally tanking, their rotation has opened up the chance for some players to make a mark in fantasy.
Nerlens Noel was once expected to be a dominant fantasy-relevant player capable of producing in multiple categories, but he hasn't lived up to that promise over the last few seasons. Will he ever break out? Our experts weigh in.
Here's everything you need to know to start playing fantasy hoops.
An illustrated guide on everything you need to know about sports injuries.

Head Start for Young Women Program
Women are underrepresented in local government in Canada. Yet, even among women there are differences in the barriers that may be experienced when participating in local government. Age, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, ability, race and many other factors will impact the experience that any one woman may have when engaging with the formal political process.
Head Start for Young Women responds to the intersecting barriers experienced by young women when it comes to participation in local government.
Acknowledging that young women are the experts of their own realities, this program aims to support young women and municipal councillors to work together to create more space for young women in local government. Launched in September 2013, the program will run until December 2014. Head Start for Young Women is made possible by the generous support of Status of Women Canada.
Six communities from across the nation are participating in FCM's Head Start for Young Women program! This year, expect great things from: Grand Forks, BC; London, ON; Ottawa, ON; Gatineau, QC; Bathurst, NB; and Rigolet, NL.

Skip Beat 27
April 25, 2012
Yoshiki Nakamura – Viz – 2012 – 30+ volumes
Seriously, Skip Beat. If you get any more awesome, my heart will stop in the middle of the next volume. I don't even know how it does it. Ren and Kyoko still aren't a couple, and it's been twenty-seven damn volumes. But I don't care. I've read almost thirty volumes of this shoujo manga, and the main characters still haven't hooked up, and I don't care. Because every single volume of this series is better than the last. I mean it. There is nothing like the pure, unadulterated awesome that is a new volume of Skip Beat. I can't convey the depths of girly joy that every page brings to my heart.
This is the continuation of the Cain and Setsuka Heel story from last volume. Kyoko and Ren have to pretend to be a pair of creepy siblings in order to keep Ren's new role top secret. Not only does this provide a lot of situations where it seems like the two aren't even acting anymore (Ren is particularly guilty of this, and his line "spending money on you is the one pleasure I have besides acting" was superb), but there are also wonderfully embarrassing domestic scenes, like when Kyoko walks in on a naked Ren in a shower. I mean, all shoujo manga do it. But it's usually a throwaway joke where, for whatever reason, it's the guy's fault for being naked. Here, Kyoko is so embarrassed she wants to die, but she also has to hide it since Setsuka wouldn't be embarrassed about walking in on Cain. After having an extremely scream-y internal monologue for awhile, she then begins to berate herself for not taking a good look at Ren Tsuruga during the only chance she would have. This is very funny, but also a little out-of-character, since Kyoko doesn't really think of Ren that way. But this is all inside her head, and she stays true to Setsuka and doesn't let anything show in front of Ren. Ren gets extremely depressed about this, thinking that Kyoko's lack of interest just proves that she doesn't see him as a man.
There's a great scene later, too, when Ren imagines having to take a bunch of grief from an excited Yashiro, who would want to know all the details about living and sleeping in the same room with Kyoko, even as a role. This doesn't happen, and later, Yashiro simply pities him, which makes Ren even more depressed than Kyoko's lack of reaction to seeing him naked.
But it's the end of the book… it has one of those scenes that only Skip Beat can do, and it's the real magic of the series. Kyoko is walking through a crowd of people with a coworker, who is a more established celebrity. After some discussion, Kyoko admits that she can still walk through a big crowd by herself, despite being a little famous, because she's so plain, and that dressed in her role for the drama nobody would recognize her. Her coworker stares for a minute, and mutters "fairy" out loud. Later, the monologue goes on to explain that the coworker is genuinely impressed with Kyoko's talent for looking and acting completely different, to the point of being unrecognizable, with each role. But in the heat of the moment, Kyoko gets excited and thinks that there might be a fairy over her shoulder, because she believes in them and that's what she does. She gets excited for a minute, then spots a crowd of people and assumes they are looking at the fairy. But as she gathers to gawk, Ren Tsuruga steps out of a car in the distance, on the set of something he's filming. As her coworker looks up to Kyoko as a magic, face-changing being, so Kyoko looks up to Ren, except she really believes in magic. This is made even better by the fact that, unbeknownst to Kyoko, Ren is the fairy prince from her childhood, the one that told her that he was a fairy and caused her to believe in them to the present day.
I don't know if I'm adequately describing it. The whole thing is just all sorts of awesome. And really, it is what makes Skip Beat so fantastic. It's absolutely the best shoujo series coming out right now.
One Response to "Skip Beat 27"
April 28, 2012 at 12:28 am
My favorite part about the Kyoko internal screaming monologue after walking in on Ren naked was that she was berating herself for not looking in order to make her collection of hand-crafted Ren dolls more anatomically accurate. So awesome. That is what Skip Beat is about. : )

3 Makeup Looks Inspired by My Favorite Albums of 2016
Since I'm a visual person I hardly ever remember the album title but I just remember what the album art looks like.
Staying out for 12 hours a day is quite normal, especially if you have a long commute to work or school. You can carry around your makeup bag for mid-day touch-ups, but that adds heft to your handbag, which is probably stuffed with things like a water bottle, laptop, maybe a change of shoes. Our friends at College Fashion have found three makeup products, under $30 total, that will get you through the day. >>Visit College Fashion for the full story

Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation," Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton said of the likely presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump that "he just doesn't understand that running our government is not the same as making real estate deals."
Clinton said, "I think being a loose cannon means saying that other nations should go ahead and acquire nuclear weapons for themselves. When that is the last thing we need in the world today. Being a loose cannon is saying we should pull out of NATO. The strongest military alliance in the history of the world and something that we really need to modernize but not abandon. I think saying that he's a loose cannon really focuses on some of the statements he's made which I find concerning going back to torture, killing terrorist families which would be a war crime and those are just some of the concerns I hear people talking about which I think does fit the definition of a loose cannon.
She continued, "He has a slogan and needs to be really really pressed on that. when he says climate change is a Chinese hoax what's that mean? Has he talked to a scientist or is it a slogan. When he says women should be punished for having abortions what's that mean and how would he go about that or rounding up 11 million, 12 million people which would entail the most comprehensive police and military action inside our borders that is imaginable and you combine that with what he's said about foreign policy and recently economic policy when he said he'd renegotiate the national debt. Maybe he just doesn't understand that running our government is not the same as making real estate deals. That putting the full faith and credit of the United States of America at risk would be a horrible outcome and it was raise interest rates, it would wipe away savings, it wall cause a global financial meltdown. People need to be pressing him and I don't think people get maybe in the media so far other than the response which then is not follow up on."

DRI is proud to be associated with Dr Charlton Tsodzo, new must read book for aspiring academics launched on 29 October 2014 at Alliance Francaise. Charlton, an DRI Associate has certainly put to rest some of the misconceptions about doctorate studies. Charlton said "though it's a book on PhD Studies…my over-arching message is whatever you set your eyes and mind on, might not be easy or might take you a long time….but it is doable!!". There a lot of mediocre doctors out there whose contribution to society is naught. This book has the potential to change that. We certainly can have a new crop of academics who can change things if they receive correct guidance".
The new book fits very well with DRI strategy of taking academic thinking beyond ideas into action. DRI implements a catalytic MDGs Academics project under the leadership of Government of Zimbabwe through the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development with Funding from UNDP. Under this project DRI spearhead the promotion and better understanding of the MDGs, managing a knowledge database tracking progress towards achievement the MDGs and coordinating the convening of development stakeholders to explore opportunities for knowledge sharing. The projects also strengthen partners' capacity to transition from the MDG to the post 2015 development agenda. One of the key activities is to link with academic institutions taking development theory into practice.

Heaven's Eyes
- Artist: Doug Dischner
- Genre: Folk
- Release Date: 1/2/2007
In my life, I have gone through many hard times of depression as I lost many loved ones. These are the lives of my family and friends who I loved so very much. I am sure that the encouraging words in this CD will help anyone who has lost someone they loved. May they bless and find comfort to all those who listen to them. The songs on this CD are as follows: 1. Heaven's Eyes - (I'll be watching you from heaven) - (By Doug Dischner) Heaven's Eyes is a song dedicated to my father who passed away due to battle with cancer. This song is about what my father said to me. Though I hurt and was so lost, I remembered my father's last words. 'Stay on the straight and narrow, keep God in your life and go on, I'll be watching you from heaven.' 2. Debra Smiles - (By Doug Dischner) This is a song that I wrote when my sister, Debra, passed away on December 7th, 2005. Once again the loss of a loved on tore my heart again between faith and all that I see here. Nevertheless, I realize that tough she is gone, her memory lives on in me and in the lives of those who knew her. I know that some day, we will see each other again. 3. Amy's Gone - (By Doug Dischner) I wrote Amy's Gone after Amy, my girl friend left me. The separation had brought much grief into my life during that season. However, afterwards I realized that it was for the best and neither of us would have wanted it any other way. 4. Candles and Tears - (By Doug Dischner) A song dedicated to Jeremy and Megan Reese, Grandchildren to my very good freinds, Harold and Linda. Jeremy and Megan were very young when they went to be with the Lord in 1995. I have often thought about what the might say now. They have no pain or sadness and God has wrapped his arms around them. 5. Bundle of Joy - (By Doug Dischner) Children are bundles of joy. This song would make a great birthday song at a birthday party. Suitable for anyone that has a child. This song tells of a parents love for their children. 6. Consume Me - (By Jerry Gadwa) An acoustical song by Jerry Gadwa. Consume me is a prayer song that he wrote in 1996 when his children became very ill at a time when they lost their home. 7. Finger Paint - (By Michelle Robbins) He colored the sky blue and painted the grass green. Then he hung there on that cross and took his last breath. We are bought by the blood and our lives are not our own. 8. In Time - (By Jerry Gadwa) This is a song written by a music teacher for his teenage students. It tells of life's responsibilities and how it is filled with much more that fun and games. It is a call to all young men and woman to consider that what the sewing is paving the future. 9. Little Less Judgment - (By Michelle Robbins) A Song which calls for all of us to consider much less judgment and a lot more love. 10. Society in a Hurry - (By Doug Dischner) Life seems to be moving faster and faster all the time. We all seem to be getting more busy by the day. This message is one which encourages us to consider time for our family and friends. Society in a Hurry is a call for us to slow down and take time for the one who made us. The chorus tells us not to shut him out.

I'm sure Paula Deen was counting on a scandal-free 2014, but she can kiss that pipe dream goodbye.
The restaurant at the center of the racism and sexual harassment lawsuit brought against her last year by a former employee and ended up leveling her cooking empire, abruptly shut down Thursday.
And, needless to say, the rest of the chef's loyal workers are super pissed because they didn't even get a heads-up the doors to Uncle Bubba's Seafood & Oyster House were closing until they found out on Facebook, CB! has learned.
"After I found out on Facebook, I called my manager," hostess Whitney Messer told Celebuzz. "Not even the managers knew. I asked one of them and she found out like I did."
The eatery's online page posted a short statement earlier today: "Thank you for 10 great years. Uncle Bubba's is now closed."
"So I went up there when I heard police were there," Messer said, adding that employees were escorted by an officer on site, where she met with a human resources rep.
"Paula had signed over the restaurant to Bubba [Hiers, her brother], so he pulled the plug on it," she explained.
Hiers decided "to close the restaurant in order to explore development options for the waterfront property on which the restaurant is located," he said in a written statement released through the Key Group Worldwide, a New York-based public relations firm.
"We were told he could have closed it today or wait for three months until the busy season was over, which we would have rather him do," Messer said. "But he didn't do that because places wouldn't be hiring."
Messer, 22, added she stopped by just yesterday to get her tips and was supposed to start a promotion on Friday.
"They were even calling employees about availability next week."
But there may have been one indication something was amiss.
"We haven't seen Bubba in like three or four weeks and we usually see him every morning," she said.
"But not to give us any warning I think is completely stupid.
"A lot of people have been there at least five years and a lot of us could have walked out any time and didn't. We dealt with a lot of criticism, but we stood by him and the restaurant. It's a big shock because my whole life has been there. It's losing a job and a family. It's hard."
She revealed each employee was given two weeks severance and references to other restaurants in the Savannah, Georgia area.
"I guess they're taking care of us, but they went about it the wrong way," Messer said.
So far, she hasn't heard of the employees wanting to take legal action.
"This had nothing to do with Paula, nothing to do with racism. In the end, it was Bubba's restaurant and he could do with it what he wanted."
But Messer isn't the only one left scrambling.
Jaime Puckett's whole family worked at the restaurant and now she has to foot the bills… and she's six months pregnant.
"Brandi my mother worked there for over 8 years and no one called her!!!" she wrote on Facebook. "My fiance also worked there no one call him, in fact a UB manager called him LAST NIGHT to get his availability for next week!
"Its s (sic) shame how the employees of UB were treated!! I am now left to pick up double shifts at work to make ends meet and I'm six months pregnant," she added. "I hope Paula enjoys that 75 million she just signed on while all employees of UB are left frantically searching for a job."
The lawsuit was later dismissed "with prejudice," meaning it cannot be filed again, in August 2013. But Deen's career and public reputation took a major blow after her deposition in the suit revealed she admitted using the "N-word" in the past.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience
The Jimi Hendrix Experience was an English-American rock band that formed in Westminster, London, in September 1966. Composed of singer, songwriter, and guitarist Jimi Hendrix, bassist and backing vocalist Noel Redding, and drummer Mitch Mitchell, the band was active until June 1969. During this time ...read more.
I consider all Jimi Hendrix led bands to be beyond any other rock artist in any given milieu. The only reason I can think of JHE languishing at 28 at the time of writing this, is that even to understand JHE you need to be an experienced musician; his riffs created genres, his lightning fast solos are to this day considered to be untouchable, he was the first to use guitar feedback as music, Mitch Mitchell's drums CANNOT be recreated by anybody other than himself.
Whoever brings a little bit of Hendrix into their playing style is considered to be a gifted player. Joe Satriani, Slash, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Frusciante (RHCP) among others all consider Jimi Hendrix to be their influence. Heck, even Jimmy Page acknowledged Hendrix to be the greatest.
This goes for the amazing Eric Clapton band Cream as well.
Despite Hendrix being the greatest guitarist ever, Mitch Mitchell (Drummer) was one of the fastest drummers ever. Noel Redding (Bass) went on to make his own band (The Noel Redding Band). Metallica's Thrash Metal crap makes me want to puke. Hendrix would make Hammett look like a phony any day. - raiderfan372
I think people voting might not associate Hendrix's band with Hendrix himself. Anyway, this band should be easily top 3 with the Beatles and Pink Floyd. No one can play guitar quite like Jimi, and the albums he made are just so epic. The fact that this band is at #30 shows that most people have no idea what rock and roll is.
Ha Ha Ha Ha. I laugh at others stupidity. Hendrix should be #2 next to Led Zeppelin. But come on obviously people are idiots. I just recently looked and Panic! At the Disco was ahead of Hendrix. Name three songs Panic! At the Disco have... You can't can you. That's because they're no better than most of these other bands nowadays. I bet in three years they will be forgotten. Disgraceful.
Come on! How can I find The Jimi Hendrix Experience this far down on the list? The best guitarist of all time deserve a much higher place on this list.
Look at some of the bands above... How would any of them be able to beat the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Listen to "Machine Gun", "Voodoo Chile", "All Along the Watchtower" and then come back here. You'll see who really deserves the top spot of this list!
The Jimi Hendrix Experience are a supergroup. Panic! At the Disco are not a supergroup. Linkin Park are not a supergroup. Blink 182 are not a supergroup. I'm 13, and I know who Jimi Hendrix are. He rocks! He was a musical genius! Mitch Mitchell too! They should be at least at top 5.
The most incredible mix of talent Ill agree with Led Zeppelin being first but the Jimi Hendrix experience definitely deserve a place in the top ten Metallica are a good band but are definitely no match for Jimi and his band who shaped rock n roll with the most amazing ray of talent
The fact that Jimi Hendrix is in this band should have already put it on number 1. Hendrix was a legend and even though his career was short-lived, his influence in rock music will stay forever. This man has made the best guitarists we know today not to mention invented distortion and thereby creating millions of hard rock and metal bands today. He created Rock music as it is today.
This list is showing it's age and by that I mean a lot of people who vote probably never saw groups like Hendrix, Big Brother or the Airplane and tend to vote for groups they grew up with which, only makes sense but doesn't mean we can define the best bands of all time using this criteria. Music is subjective and this list is proof of that.
You know that idiots are voting on these lists because Queen, Linkin Park and Green Day are ahead of Jimi Hendrix. Although his career was short lived. He deserves to be 4th. If you know music, and a lot of you do'nt, you know how difficult it is to play guitar like that. Besides that his lyrics are underrated. From slow, beautiful songs like "Angel" to brain shredding rock masterpieces like "Voodoo Chile", Hendrix deserves #4 - kpopcraze
How is this not in the top ten. Their version of All Along the Watchtower is a decade defining song that is used in movies to symbolise the late sixties and the Vietnam War. Jimi Hendrix is one of, if not the greatest guitarist to ever live!
Are you joking? 62? How can you place Lighthouse A7X and Fallout Boy over Jimi Hendrix? Hendrix A GOD OF ROCK!
They aren't in the top because the band as a whole wasn't awesome. Guitarist = sick but Noel and Mitch weren't the best ever (but still good) although I also heard that a lot of their material is down to Noel and Mitch and not Jimi as most believe.
Electric Ladyland is one of the greatest albums of all time. EVERYONE was influenced by Jimi. You might not know it, but bands like Led Zeppelin and Queen were influenced by him. Every person who picked up a guitar and plugged it in was influenced by Hendrix.
Jimi Hendrix is the GOD OF GUITARS. Without Hendrix, guitarists like Synyster Gates, Slash, and etc won't exist. This band along with him has produced great music. I like their songs "Purple Haze" especially
The best of the rock Music, Jimi Hendrix the God Father of Electric Guitar the Inspiration for most of them, he brought fire in most of the bands and its disappointing seeing him this place which is absolutely wrong.
Jimi Hendrix is simply the greatest guitar player who ever lived. He wrote great songs, had a cool voice, and with Mitch Mitchell behind him, The Experience made three spectacular albums. The Band of Gypses album is amazing too, "Machine Gun" may be the greatest solo ever (not guitar solo, greatest SOLO EVER. Ask Miles Davis if you don't believe me). Top 5 easily. - lordofthejimmy
This is one of the best psychedelic bands ever. Jimi Hendrix is an AMAZING guitar player and one of the best. Are You Experienced is a great album.
As a band, I wouldn't say the Experience were the best, but for sheer guitar playing talent, they can't beat.
I was about to vote for one of the higher bands, but then I saw this. Jimi Hendrix should be in the top 5 let alone not even in the top 20
Linkin Park should be replaced. They're nowhere near the best rock band ever. They're not even rock. Jimi Hendrix was one of the pioneers of rock, he deserves to be higher
Can't believe Jimi and The Doors are voted below so many mediocre stale rock bands. Just goes to show how many people have no idea about music.
Jimi Hendrix is the best guitarist ever and Mitch Mitchell (the drummer) is up there. this should be at least top 10
Innovated rock music! Enough' said.
All people should know how awesome they are and mitch mitchell is really good

Yes, of course this wasn't a perfect month, it was actually the slowest one I've had but wonderful things happened to me.
After 4 months of missing UST and weeks of missing my friends, I finally got the chance to go back to thee Alma mater with them and even have ice cream and karaoke afterwards. Can't explain how happy I was that day!
I finally got my copy of "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" by Jonathan Safran Foer!
My friends have been teasing me when I told them the book's title has sexual innuendo. LOL.
Thank you Fully Booked Gateway for this! I've been looking for it all my life!
I have this pair of slippers I've kept for almost 3 years since it was a debut gift from two of my 18 roses.
Yes, it was expensive but what mattered to me most is that it's so comfortable and it came from them.
Just this Sunday, I accidentally dropped them somewhere since I changed footwear in the car.
I was so sad and Papa felt so sorry for me.
The next day, Papa got me these pink slippers.
I know they may not be that expensive or comfortable, but what's important is that it came from the numbah one man in my life. I love you Poppa! Yer the best!
In other news, NEWS ANCHOR NA AKO!LOL.
I just chose this photo so express how TGIF-y I felt yesterday since I was given the chance to write the take one script for our news program, News on Q!
Pareng Doy even said "Ikaw ung kauna-unahang news writer sa batch na napili para magsulat ng buong AV script ng Take One sa isang news program! High five man!"
And really, I was smiling the whole night!
Yes, the script may have been edited but I'm still thankful for the privilege and the trust.
Okay this blog is too long! I hope you also had a great month!
Let's hope for greater ones to come!

On a cold night in Athens, The Union was heated up by bass music and the sweat of many satisfied attendees. The latest edition of Dave Rave's Wobble on the Bricks hosted a variety of talent from all across the state.
The first DJ to grace the stage was Kingpin of Columbus. Having played the Athens DUB101 spot this past April, it was obvious he would bring a diverse set. True to his name, the capital city DJ performed with a bowling pin at the front of his setup.
Much of his set didn't rely on bass music, but sort of up-tempo stuff. There were disco-sounding tracks, but also a bit of trap music. The variety was a good match for the beginning of the night. Shout out to James Castrillo for wearing a tie and cardigan while he played. Classy!
Columbus' Magua played a very heavy set. The beginning of his set started out pretty glitchy, but varied through dubstep and a bit of trap. Magua is a very exciting DJ to watch, in that he practically balls up energy behind the decks and throws it back at the crowd. He jumps and throws down to songs, works the mic and is just an overall fun person to dance to. Kudos.
Out of Cleveland, Thunder St. Clair brought yet another heavy set. Having killed it while opening for Crizzly back in April, it was pretty much impossible not to get him back ASAP. He definitely didn't disappoint, mixing behind clean bass music, grimey dubstep and upbeat trap music. The talented and experienced DJ was downright fantastic in his mixing and song choice. Plus, the lucky dude gets to open for Zeds Dead next Wednesday.
Last out was Ohio University student DJ Paulo. According to Dave Rave, he is a student from China via Brazil. Much of the beginning of his set began with glitch and a little bit of moombahton. But as his set wore on, a few dubstep songs were added in. All of this was very minimal compared to the remaining drum n' bass & drumstep that was played.
His music soaked up all remaining energy by show attendees, even with his somewhat different style of mix ins/outs. The only problem was a friend of his acting as a sort of MC. It was cool in that it kind of gave you the feel of an underground Los Angeles or London DNB club, but the man occasionally went a bit over the top.

I'm Frank Tobia and here is the place I blog. I was studying for my PhD in economics at Georgetown until it became obvious to me I'd chosen the wrong path and dropped out. Currently I work for a computer security firm in Reston, VA, enjoying the software engineer / code ninja lifestyle. I have two bachelors degrees from RPI, computer & systems engineering and economics, and I'm overly proud of both of them. I haven't decided when I'm going back to grad school, but it must happen soon to feed my brain and ego.
My free time is filled with side projects and assorted fabulousness. I'm a board member of the Awesome Foundation DC which is (unsurprisingly) quite awesome. Much of my time I spend reading, plotting and planning, playing Starcraft 2, and exploring lofty questions about the meaning of existence and the optimal organization of society. Feel free to drop me a line if you're interested in any of the above.

July/August 2009: In This Issue
Many in the United States are calling for a major federal program to stimulate technological innovation in energy. An assessment of promising energy technologies reveals three policy packages and three institutions needed to overcome the obstacles these technologies are likely to face.
China's rapid development has exacted a toll: China's cities and rivers are among the dirtiest on Earth, and the nation now emits more carbon dioxide per year than any other. A sustainable future appears in doubt, but what do the inhabitants of China's cities believe?

Satya Nadella's appointment as chief executive of Microsoft took a fair few analysts by surprise. They had been staking their bets on someone higher profile – but that was not the only reason for their startled reaction. A number privately admitted that they were also taken aback by Mr Nadella's origins.
"What, an Indian Indian?" one seasoned commentator asked. "Where was he raised and educated?".
Mr Nadella, 46, was born in Hyderabad and studied electrical engineering at Manipal University in Karnataka, southern India, before moving to America to pursue his post-grad studies in Wisconsin and Chicago.
These days, his Indian accent may be rounded with an American lilt, but he remains very much someone born and bred on the subcontinent.
He is Indian Indian in anyone's book.
America is a multi-cultural society – it has its first African-American President, after all – but it is still unusual to see a foreigner take the helm of a US firm. It seems they like their chief executives white, all-American, middle class and educated at Harvard or Yale.
There are exceptions to the rule, of course. Indra Nooyi, the boss of Pepsi Co, and Shantanu Narayen, head of Adobe, were also born in India. Pfizer, the US drugs giant, is headed by Ian Read, a Scot, while David Long, a Liverpudlian, leads Liberty Mutual Insurance Group. The chief executive of Best Buy is French.
But, overall, US corporations tend to stick to US leaders: although most Fortune 100 companies are vast multinationals, with a substantial presence in major cities across the globe, just 14 have chief executives born outside America.
It is a figure that has remained more or less static for a decade, and one that looks even less progressive when you consider that more than half of those foreigners who have snagged the top job spent almost their entire career scaling the ranks at their firm.
Clearly, Mr Nadella falls into that camp. He worked for Microsoft for 22 of his 46 years before being crowned chief executive this week.
However, that will not limit the intense scrutiny he faces over the coming months, as both the technology industry and corporate America work out what to make of this relatively unknown figure.
Microsoft investors need him to succeed, for obvious reasons. They need him to drag the technology firm out of the doldrums to a place where it can compete effectively with Google and Apple.
But they are not the only ones who stand to benefit from Nadella's success. If America learns it is worthwhile hiring from overseas – and taking a punt on candidates with degrees and CVs they may not immediately know how to judge – that opens the door a crack wider for us all.
UK plc worries about losing its business talent to America, whether they are lured by better salaries or the promise of a better career in technology.
But one man's brain drain is another man's opportunity, and, in a global talent market, migration is inevitable.
We have to make sure that the traffic is two-way, of course. But we also have to make sure than if we are losing some of our candidates to Uncle Sam, they at least have a decent shot at the top.
A little blue-sky thinking about US terminology
When I first moved to New York, certain American phrases made me nauseous: I found "reaching out" ("contacting" to you and me) and "circling back" (responding) particularly troublesome.
After nearly a year in this city, I have learnt to swallow most of my irritation, but some idioms remain beyond the pale. Why on earth does everyone want to talk "to" certain topics, instead of "about" them? Apparently, the phrase "I can't talk to Wall Street" means the speaker isn't qualified to comment on the views of America's financial sector. To me it conjures up images of madmen ranting in the streets, trying to summon a reaction from the pavement.
Then there are the unfathomable job titles. The vice-president of a company might sound very senior indeed, but actually virtually everyone is a VP, from the office assistant upwards. The real power lies with general managers or anyone with a "chief" in their title.
Or there are the designations that are just made up. I once encountered a chap who claimed to be a "technical evangelist", but he was bettered by a man who introduced himself as "intellevangelist". I have no idea what he does. When I asked for clarity he told me he was an "innovative disrupter".
That nausea is rising again … I think I might innovatively disrupt unintelligent pseudo-evangelism in his face.
