A Deal's a Deal. Right?
Oct 7, 2014 6:12 PMIn the Middle East, the old joke among Western lawyers goes something like this: "First you negotiate the contract, then you close the contract. And then, you renegotiate the contract… "All good jokes are rooted in the truth. While there certainly are some local parties in the Middle East who are committed to keeping their word and sticking to the deal they negotiated, there does exist this unfortunately common dynamic wherein the local party will test, stretch and even flat-out ignore the terms of an agreement they just executed. One might even lose money betting against a breach occurring before the ink dries.And yet, throughout the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, billions of (US) dollars worth of business is successfully transacted each and every year by and between foreign and local parties. How does that work?It starts with understanding what local businessmen already know: going to court, dumping your local agent (or, colloquially speaking, your "sponsor"), etc, are usually your last best options. You can see your company effectively frozen out of the market if you make such a move without an almost perfect sense of deftness. And, even if eventually successful, should your company go this route, you have embarked on a long, aggravating and expensive disruption of business that will give rise to discussions that start with, "Why don't we just pull out of there?"We will talk about arbitration clauses (and, the enforceability of them in GCC jurisdictions) in a subsequent posting. For now, you also need to understand that the local sponsor, or other local parties with whom your company does business, who busies himself with stretching the terms of your agreement is primarily (if not entirely) in the business of sponsoring foreign enterprises (or otherwise makes his money conducting business with foreign parties). Maintaining sponsorships or other replationships with foreign investors (and, protecting their reputations and pride) tend to be the top priorities of local companies. So, when such companies appear to breach their agreements, what do they hope to gain by playing around?Usually, more money. And, usually, not much more. More often than not, you can settle the matter by amending a couple of terms and (slightly) goosing up their sponsorship "fee" (or, whatever other payment, profit or compensation they may be receiving).What about the law of contracts? Why can't I look for a new sponsor and/ or seek judicial recourse?Remember that the laws requiring you to obtain a sponsor in the first place are protectionist in nature. On an unofficial level, shopping around for more pliant for cooperative sponsors isn't designed to be easy.Also, while consideration, reliance and other concepts are necessary to show a promise made in contract is enforceable under the laws of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), such is not the case to show the existence of an enforceable contract in Saudi Arabia (KSA). In the KSA, if you make a promise, you're stuck with it.Isn't the other side stuck with it, too???Well, in the Middle East, there is the law the way it is written, and the law the way its enforced. And, to further complicate things, that which is enforced is not always written, and that which is written is not always enforced. If you wind up in a KSA court, you may have a judge whose primary concern is sending a signal to his government, more than adjudicating a dispute between the parties before him. In the UAE, much may depend on whether the judge enjoyed his breakfast, or if he is miserable from a belly ache, as he reads your company's brief… (And, keep in mind, the UAE imports its judges from other countries – those judges tend to be mindful of who gave them their jobs.)As to getting another sponsor, while the UAE and the individual Emirates therein may not employ "black lists" per se (as does the KSA), you should nonetheless do your best to avoid running afoul of bureaucrats at relevant ministries and other governmental offices who may have a cousin, friend, or other acquaintance who may just happen to be your soon-to-be former sponsor or other business partner/ associate. Business licenses have to be renewed every year, and your specific business may well depend on successfully bidding on government tenders; and, while Abu Dhabi and Dubai, for example, may look like big cities, they still very much operate as "small towns" on many different levels.That's not to say successfully changing your sponsor and/ or winning a contractual dispute with a local party in the Middle East is impossible. Such has been known to happen in Abu Dhabi, and even in Jeddah (where arbitration clauses are less likely to be deemed enforceable by local courts, even though the KSA is a party to the New York Convention). Accordingly, you should protect yourself in the governing documentation the way you would in any other international agreement.Have the standard choice of law, venue, and language clauses, as well an arbitration clause (which can be something of a contract unto itself) and, especially, a (carefully written) termination clause. If an American-based company (or, even if you are based in another Western country but have operations in the US), make sure the documentation includes language concerning your refusal to violate the provisions of the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (over the last several years, the trend has been increasingly robust enforcement of the FCPA). American companies might also think to include a so-called "anti-boycott" clause in the agreement, given the on again/ off again enforcement of boycotts against Israel by some Arab states.Although the general mood in the GCC seems to favor a direction wherein the laws are being changed to relax the hold local parties (especially those deemed "sponsors") have over foreign direct investment in their respective markets/ jurisdictions, it is usually best to try to renegotiate when a breach occurs. Such renegotiation should, generally speaking, settle upon a slight increase in the amount of earnings the local party derives from the deal.

Who is Kendrick Lamar and what is his net worth 2018? Kendrick Lamar was born on June 17, 1987. He is an American rapper and singer best known for the singles "Swimming Pools (Drank)", "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe", and "Poetic Justice" from his sophomore studio album "good kid, m.A.A.d city". When the album was released, it was at number 2 position in the U.S. Billboard charts. He has also collaborated with a lot of famous artists including Snoop Dog and Lil Wayne.
Early Life
Lamar was born in California while his parents were from Chicago, Illinois. His mother named him Kendrick in tribute to the singer Eddie Kendricks. When Lamar was eight years old he got the chance see his idols Tupac Shakur and Dr. Dre film a video. He considers this a very significant moment in his life. Lamar was the first in his family to graduate from high school doing so from Centennial High School in Compton with straight As.
When he was sixteen, Lamar released a mixtape under the name K-Dot. It was titled "Youngest Head Nigga in Charge (Hub City Threat: Minor of the Year)". This tape resulted in a lot of local recognition for him. He then secured a recording contract with top Dawg Entertainment (TDE), based in California, where he released a second mixtape, with 26 tracks two years later titled "Training Day (2005)". Throughout 2006 and 2007 Lamar opened many acts for rappers including Jay Rock, Ya Boy and The Game.
He was also featured in Jay Rock's debut music video 'All My Life ( In The Ghetto )". He gained further recognition during a Charles Hamilton concert where he started rapping without hesitation when Hamilton battled with the rapper in the audience. In 2009, after receiving a co-sign from Lil Wayne, Lamar released his third mixtape titled C4. Soon after, he decided to give up his pseudopodium K-Dot and reverted back to his own name.
In 2010 he released his fourth mixtape. He continued writing lyrics and also collaborated with other artists including Young Jeezy, The Game, and Lil Wayne. He was also taken under Dr. Dre's wing and mentored. Dr. Dre signed him on to an independent record label alongside famous names like Eminem and The Cent.
His debut album paved the way for his fame along with his hit singles "Swimming Pool" and "poetic Justice". He also made major television appearances in shows including The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with David Letterman.
In 2015 Lamar released his album "to Pimp A Butterfly" and was nominated for 11 Grammy that year winning five in the 2016 show.
Lamar has been on the receiving end of seven Grammy awards. In 2014, he was nominated for 7 awards and he won two awards for his single 'I' in 2015. In 2016 he was nominated the highest number of times at 11, second only to Michel Jackson's 12 nominations in 1984.
Lamar has received two civic honors, the first being California State Senate's Generational Icon Award from State Senator on May 11, 2015. On February 13, 2016, the Mayor of Compton presented him with a key to the city for "representing the city's evolution".
Lamar and his girlfriend Whitney Alford got engaged in 2015 after a long courtship. His cousin Nick Young is an NBA player. He is also a firm believer in Christianity. His song 'I' is about Christian faith.
Net Worth of Kendrick Lamar
Lamar's estimated net worth is $25 million. Unlike the others in his field, Lamar doesn't feel the need to spend a lot of money on endorsements and flashy cars. His $532,000 home is over 7,800 feet with four bedrooms and no swimming pools and such.
Lamar is a happy man, engaged to his childhood sweetheart, Whitney Alford. He claims that the people who are close to him are the ones who have always been there for him all through his life and career. Lamar joins up his old group, Black Hippy, the members of which collaborate for songs now and then.

How a Week in Rio Leads to an Active Monday Morning
Read this post in Français, Español
We came to Rio+20 determined that one outcome of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development must be a plan for what ministers of finance, development and environment and ourselves need to do differently Monday morning, June 25th – if we are to achieve sustainable development for all.
We have our plan.
We came to Rio+20 knowing that inclusive green growth is the pathway to sustainable development, and the evidence here is that this international community agrees.
The analysis behind the World Bank's report Inclusive Green Growth: The Pathway to Sustainable Development framed many of the conference debates and helped facilitate a new focus on natural capital accounting – a fundamental component of inclusive green growth.
According to the 59 countries, 86 companies, and 17 civil society organizations that supported the World Bank Group-facilitated 50:50 campaign – as well as many others – natural capital accounting is an idea whose time has come.
In fact, natural capital accounting events filled the Rio Convention Center, and government and civil society groups alike highlighted the importance of moving beyond GDP.
This new energy and emphasis around this issue may be the most important outcome of Rio+ 20.

Several years ago (before the famous server meltdown of 2009), I wrote about the tastings that were throughout the greater Las Vegas/Henderson metropolitan area. At that time there were wine tastings every day, and it was completely possible to feed your wine-tasting jones and purchase a good wine – one that you had actually sampled and enjoyed – every day of the week.
Well, the economy has seen some of our great wine friends – Vino 100, unWINEd, Wine Styles, Bella Vino, for example – close their doors and the same wine tasting availability is no more. For a Wineaux like me, that's disastrous!
However, it's not all doom and gloom!
There are still wine tastings throughout the week, although – as far as I can see – no longer on an everyday basis. Let me share some of the tastings of which I am aware, and please, let me know of more. I love to support the local businesses, and I love to have as many people as possible become exposed to a greater wine experience through tasting. The tastings I'm talking about with this post are free to customers. Please patronize these businesses in order to continue to enjoy their generosity!
First, the newest on the tasting roster is a restaurant near (literally!) and dear to me – Mezzo! Mezzo Italian Bistro on north Rancho is under new ownership, and the new guys in charge, Sean and Kelly, decided to share some of the offerings on their restaurant wine list with their patrons. The Wineaux Guy and I enjoyed several of their wines, and we recommend it highly. Their tastings are on Saturdays from 3:00 to 6:00 pm.
My first wine tasting experiences were with my old friends at Khoury's Fine Wine & Spirits in Henderson on Eastern near St. Rose Parkway. Issa and Nura have generously provided free tastings every Thursday for years, and although it's located on the other side of the world (for me), I love visiting with them because they almost always have the actual winemaker or winery owner there sharing their wines. Warning – going there is very bad for the budget! Every Thursday from 6:00 – 8:00 you'll find a dedicated group of Khoury's customers there to enjoy the phenomenal wines.
I probably don't need to add to the accolades that Marché Bacchus has received over the years, but I will. Jeff and Rhonda provide one of the most extraordinary tastings in the valley; the wines are always high-end, always unique and unlike any you'll find anywhere else. They are located on Regatta Drive in the community of Desert Shores, just off of Buffalo. Tastings are on Saturdays from 11:30 – 1:30. Word of warning: get there early!
Valley Cheese and Wine, located on Horizon Ridge Parkway way out in the boonies of Henderson, consistently provides the most incredible cheeses with their selection of yummy wines. Bob and Kristin's tastings are on Friday, 4:00 PM to 7:00 pm and Saturday, noon to 7:00.
I did a posting about Total Wine when they first opened in the Boca Park shopping center in 2010. They have (they say) 8,000 different wines. It's a great place to stop if you're looking for an inexpensive drinker for movie night in front of the flat screen! They taste these wines every Friday and Saturday from 11:00am to 6:00, and Sundays noon to 6:00 at both of their stores, Boca Park and in Henderson.
Lee's Discount Liquor, the granddaddy of the spirits community here in Vegas, has 16 stores, all with different tasting times. The three that I'm close to – Boca Park, Craig Road (west), and Lake Mead – all have free tastings on Friday evenings, Saturday afternoons, and occasional Sundays. Check out their website for more information!
I don't talk about Sunset & Vines a lot because they're located in the Montelago Village of Lake Las Vegas, which is very far from my home, and not an easy place for me to travel to on a casual basis. However, I've been there a few times and can highly recommend their food and their Tuesday evening wine tastings, which, like the others mentioned here, are free of charge. They have their tastings from 6:00 to 7:30 pm.
The store we love to hate, Whole Foods, has wine tastings in each of its local stores, and the times vary. The busiest store is Town Square, with regular events, tastings, food demonstrations, and more. Like Lee's, you'll have to check your closest (or favorite) Whole Foods for tasting dates and times. The locations here in Vegas are Boca Park (actually, across the street on Charleston), Green Valley (Henderson), West Lake Mead at Tenaya, and Town Square.
There are always wine dinners, tastings, and other events going on in Vegas. Sometimes you just want to taste wine, whether to enjoy a wine you know you can't afford, or if you're just looking for something to pop the cork (or {{{shudder}}} *unscrew*) that evening. The one disadvantage of having limited free tastings is that you'll have to buy more wines to make up for those days when there are no wine tastings to visit!
Coming soon – tastings that may cost you a bit of money…but are worth it!

Aerospace & Defence 4.0
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a powerful trend in the Aerospace & Defense (A&D) industry. This industry has been one of the forerunners in the IIoT maturity spectrum, having implemented sensor technology and computerized automation for several years in the recent past. Successful A&D companies are constantly innovating and are increasingly upgrading their technological infrastructure using elements of IIoT such as edge computing, big data, predictive analytics, cloud and other applications. With the convergence of digitized machine parts and improved connectivity, IIoT is already gaining momentum across several departments of aerospace and defense manufacturing. Like its implementation in any other industry, the objective of IIoT in A&D industry also is in improving process and product efficiencies. Military and commercial airlines are increasingly generating several terabytes of data every day, as more and more manufacturers are adding sensor technology to these machines. The data that is actually being put to use is all but a small fraction of the huge mountain of data that could be potential sources of additional revenues to the manufacturers. Aircraft health and maintenance, system and component performance, and crucial customer related data are all a part of this mix. And this is where IIoT plays a crucial role in helping manufacturers manage this large volume of data and identify newer service opportunities. Some of the key benefits of IIoT for the aerospace and defence industry include – • Aircraft maintenance and health monitoring • Ability to tweak aircraft design and functionalities based on usage behavior • Real-time identification of quality issues • Quick and easy delivery of software updates • Improvement of operational efficiency • Enriched design and manufacturing environment • Easy tracking and traceability Leading aircraft manufacturers that have already implemented IIoT in their factory operations are now realizing returns in the form of overall cost reduction, improved process efficiencies, improved product reliability, and enhanced customer experience through predictive maintenance of aircraft. Engine fuel efficiency and performance improvements such as noise and emission cancellation are some of the parameters that are being looked at by aircraft manufacturers. Further, these IIoT solutions are enabling additional revenue streams for OEMs, engine manufacturers, and airline operators alike. In fact, the opportunities are so many that the real challenge is more in identifying where to start implementing IIoT. A lot of airlines companies have already invested or planned their budgets for the near future IIoT implementations, which is why it becomes all the more important to understand what major market players are doing in the space.

Tigers, Rockets gear up for second round games
After a big win over Notre Dame in round one, the second seeded Marshall County Tigers (8-3) will once again enjoy some home cooking for Friday night's second round 4A playoff game versus the Sequoyah Chiefs (6-5), while the Forrest Rockets (8-3) take to the highway for a match-up versus the Decatur County-Riverside Panthers (4-6) in the 2A bracket.
The Tigers (1984 state champions) are looking to advance past the second round for the first time since 2007 when they lost to David Lipscomb 32-13.
Sequoya's first round win over Red Bank was the school's first playoff win since 1999 and it was a close game as the Monroe County squad won 27-22.
The Tigers continued to play to their strength as they pounded on Notre Dame via 329 rushing yards with senior standout gaining 248 yards on 36 carries at Preston Hopkins Field to break the Tigers' single season rushing mark.
Irizarry has 1,759 yards on the season and the elusive, yet powerful tailback will be the workhorse once again as head coach Tom Turchetta sticks to his run first game plan versus the Chiefs.
On the other side of the ball, the Tiger defense has come on strong, giving up just 9.8 points per game in their last five contests.
The Chiefs must be the Tigers' only focus this week, even though everyone is looking at a potential third-round game at home versus Giles County (8-3) next week if both squads come out victorious as the Bobcats have a very winnable game versus Brainerd (6-5) on the road.
Turchetta will not let his team overlook Sequoyah as the Tigers roll onward with a bruising 27-10 win.
If the Rockets win in Decaturville, they will make school history, plain and simple, as Forrest has not won a second round game since the inception of the state playoff system.
Forrest made easy work of Houston County in a 35-0 rout and just like the Tigers; the Rockets' victory was achieved with a solid running attack.
Quarterback Brooks Lamb ran for 180 yards and three touchdowns and all-state running back Zach Ray continued to pile on the numbers for his great career as he added 149 yards to the ground attack and scored once.
Forrest has gelled in all the right places at the right time as the offensive line has opened up some big holes for the rushing game and the men up front have protected Lamb when he has dropped back to pass.
The defensive linemen have become a force to be reckoned with as they have slowed down their opponents' running game and have put pressure on quarterbacks at crucial times in the ballgames.
The Panthers come in with a sub .500 record, but FHS head coach Kyle Stacey is aware that five of those losses have come against solid ball clubs in Huntingdon, Lexington, Perry County, Adamsville, and Dresden, who knocked the Rockets out of the playoffs last year.
All five teams were ranked in the final AP Top 10 poll at the end of the regular season.
The common opponent for both teams is Perry County, who narrowly defeated the Rockets 22-7 in Week Zero in Chapel Hill in a game that was much closer than the final score projected.
The Panthers were pounded 43-7 by Perry County in Decaturville on Sept. 9.
The scenario for the Rockets is a good one as they take care of business in a close contest 27-24 to advance to round number three next week, hopefully in Chapel Hill versus archrival Cascade, who plays at Adamsville Friday night.
If the Champions lose and the Rockets win, it will be another road contest at Adamsville for Forrest next Friday.

BOCA RATON — At Sunrise Park Elementary School, a group of teenagers has taken the place of teacher's aides.
Despite the vehement protests of parents and teachers, most aides lost their jobs this year as a result of budget cuts. Fortunately for Sunrise Park, the school is next door to a middle school with a large talent pool of teens considering the teaching profession.
About 50 Eagle's Landing Middle School students trek next door each week to help Sunrise Park teachers, tutoring, working with small groups, making copies or filing papers. Although the program has been in place for three years, the teens' role has taken on special urgency with the loss this year of professional assistants.
"They are exactly like teacher's aides," kindergarten teacher Dina Marschke said.
Marschke recently assigned her teen assistant, Miranda Mello, to work with a small group that was cutting out food pictures from magazines. Mello, 13, said she looks forward to her twice-weekly visits.
"I love the kids, and I want to be a teacher," she said. "They know a lot more than I did when I was 5."
The eighth-graders are carefully screened by Eagle's Landing guidance counselor Jean Redinger before being accepted into the program.
She notifies the students' teachers after they apply and asks about their grades and attitude. The students work at Sunrise Park as an elective and get a grade based on Sunrise Park teachers' comments about their work. All have gotten an A in the past, Redinger said.
"The teachers know we send them good kids," Redinger said. "Most ask for as many students as possible."
Ann Tartaglione, who teaches English to non-native speakers, raved about her assistant, Catalina Roldan, 14. When Tartaglione's English-Spanish translator was absent recently, Roldan was able to take her place, conveying students' needs to their teacher.

Teen girl had to be pulled off garda who tried to help her
Sentencing of a teenage girl, who lunged at a garda and dragged her to the floor by her hair during an attack in a Dublin station, has been adjourned.
Then aged 16, she had been missing from care when she attacked a garda who was trying to get her back to her accommodation.
The young woman, now aged 18, but who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty at the Dublin Children's Court to assault causing harm to Garda Aoife Moroney, who is attached to the child protection unit at Mountjoy Garda station, on April 30, 2014.
Judge John O'Connor noted she been co-operating with the Probation Service and he adjourned sentencing for six weeks to allow an updated welfare report on her to be prepared.
Earlier, he described the injured garda's victim impact evidence as brave and moving and added that the case showed how gardai frequently risk their own lives and safety.
The 18-year-old has no prior criminal convictions.
Gda Carl Byrne has told the court the teen and another girl presented at Mountjoy Garda station. They had been reported as missing from care and were being dealt with by Gda Moroney who was trying to contact a care home and social workers.
The second girl shouldered her knocking her back into a table and another garda went to arrest her but she resisted and Gda Moroney tried to assist. Then the teenage defendant, who had been sitting at the rear of the room, "lunged and caught her by the hair, dragging her forcefully to the ground".
She refused to let go and "it took a number of gardai in order to be able to release her grip after which she was arrested", said Gda Byrne.
In a victim impact statement Garda Moroney said she had been attacked by the girl while trying to help her at a time the teen was a "high risk person under a full care order". She said she does not think she will feel safe again at work.
After the attack, she suffered pains in her back, chest and arms and had some bruising. She suffered headaches and pins and needles around the area where her head had been pulled. She said he had nightmares and her family are now constantly worried about her.
She said she remains extra cautious dealing with young people
The teenage girl also admitted possessing €20 of cannabis at her room in a care home on a date last October.

The McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT is pleased to announce that its feature video, Welcome to the McGovern Institute, has won a 2010 Telly Award. Produced by Emmy nominated John Rubin Productions, the 20-minute video shows how research at the Institute is pushing the frontiers of technology and providing new insights into brain disorders such as autism, Parkinson's disease, and mental illness. The video won top honors in the fundraising category.
"Understanding the human brain is the great scientific challenge of our time," said Robert Desimone, director of the McGovern Institute. "We are now studying the brain in ways that would have been inconceivable a few years ago, and we are deeply grateful to the many donors whose support makes our work possible. I am delighted that our video received this prestigious award, which will draw attention to the extraordinary scientific advances being made here at the Institute."
The feature video, accompanied by interviews with individual faculty members, are all freely available on the McGovern Institute website.
Founded in 1978, the Telly Awards honor outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, the finest video and film productions, and online film and video. More than 11,000 entries from around the world were reviewed this year and less than 10 percent were chosen as winners of the Silver Telly, the highest honor. A panel of accomplished industry professionals, each a past winner of a Silver Telly, judged the competition and evaluated the entries based on distinction in creative work.

A rather general term, used specifically of arginine-rich proteins found in the azurophil granules of neutrophils. Eosinophil cationic protein (160 aa), found in the granules, has weak ribonuclease activity but more importantly is helminthotoxic and will damage schistosomula. It is also responsible for neurotoxicity (the Gordon phenomenon).

It's reunion time for the Real Housewives of New York! It's blondes versus brunettes, sofa edition. Bravo has recreated the set for the reunion in honor of Morocco. Ramona is not pregnant, but she could have been…she has young genes and still gets her period. In fact, she's having it now! TMI, Ramenstration. And let the games begin!
Right off the bat, Andy highlights the season's many fights, as well as how many times each lady says "it's the wrong place and wrong time" to have such an altercation. While the season has divided the ladies along a very visible hair color line, Alex pretty much has had beef with everyone. Starting with the gay equality march, Sonja says it wasn't she who didn't want Simon to speak at the rally–it was Bleep. Alex corrects her noting that, no, Alex and Simon are dear friends with Bleep, so that couldn't be the case. Bleep clearly doesn't want his name or cause walking hand in hand with the housewives.
Kelly is muttering under her breath about how wrong it is that Alex could forgive Sonja for insulting her husband on national television. Kelly tries to give us the timeline of the events leading up to the march, but she seems to be more consumed with asserting herself as a strong personality than actually contributing to the discussion. Sonja and Alex can look back on the fight and think, in hindsight, it had such a wonderful impact on the march because it brought more attention to the cause. Bleep clearly agrees since he's so eager NOT to have his identity known. Jill tries to paint Simon as attacking Sonja at the march and Ramona disagrees with that characterization. Poor Jill so wants to show a pattern of bullying behavior in Simon!
When asked why she had the authority to call Alex (or anyone else for that matter) weird several times throughout the season, Kelly points out Alex's anxiety induced hives. They're weird. Plus, Kelly's nice. Don't believe her? Well, she was recently picked as one of Cosmo magazine's top five nicest celebrities. HUH? First of all, celebrity? Alex is trying very hard to get her point across that she doesn't like being attacked by the brunettes, and Kelly notices is that she's getting all rashy again, and it's annoying. Alex says, you call me inauthentic, but if I could fake these hives, I'd have an Academy Award. Bad line, notes Kelly, although Ramona, who has been pretty quiet during the altercation, loves Alex's statement.
Next on the chopping block is Sonja's bankruptcy. Sonja discusses that her production company pulled out of a movie potentially starring John Travolta, and when sued she lost both the trial and the appeal. "Shocking" mutters Jill. Underhanded or sincere? I'm guessing the former, and I think Jill is sitting back while Kelly fights her battles. Luann believes that Sonja doesn't owe anyone an explanation. Sonja gets extremely emotional when she says it wasn't the bankruptcy, but the demise of her marriage, that tears her apart. She won't go into details about her divorce out of respect for her daughter and ex-husband, who she claims was very wonderful and generous. Sonja reveals that the only time she felt embarrassed by how she was portrayed this season was when her financial state was first brought to light. She has no qualms about her butt-bearing masquerade party or burlesque performance, so more power to her. As for her parties and fancy lifestyle, Ramona is quick to jump in to say that Sonja is compensated for most of the things she does in her social life. Sonja admits that she can be very full of herself, but she also confronts Kelly for talking about her home. Scary Island Kelly is back in full force as she does a lot of angry head-shaking and tells everyone that her priority is hygiene, so she and Sonja are "different" on that front. While everyone is talking about how clean Sonja's house is–even the Countess is uncomfortable with Kelly's accusation–Kelly, who is a walking contradiction, fails to see what the big deal is. She never said anything about Sonja's home or judged her based on it. Andy looks clearly confused as he quotes back to her the comment she made that started this entire fiasco.
Kelly is questioned as to whether she bought her apartment, and surprise, surprise, Gille bought it years ago for a million dollars. Cindy and Kelly agree that Sonja puts on airs, and while Luann can see their point, she reiterates how inappropriate Kelly's original comment was. Cindy has found her voice and talks about
hangers saving seats how pretentious and condescending Sonja can be. Sonja basically dismisses her, saying that she strives to always accept people for who they are. Isn't that right, Jill and Luann? Luann agrees wholeheartedly, and Jill, still being mostly silent and short with her responses, replies, "Why yes you have." Is that a dig? Reunion Jill is confusing me. Is she trying to be quiet because we all know what happens when she opens her mouth? Does she think she appears to be "changed" by not chiming in on every point of drama? Or is she just saving up for a full on tirade? I must say, her silence doesn't seem like it comes from a happy place as her expressions seem to say things rather loudly. The two sofas have a bit of a chuckle over Sonja's plumbing issue and her bare-handed grab of the Blackberry clogging her toilet. Jill still seems very pointed in her comments, even when attempting to be funny.
Andy moves on to the pair that has had the most ups and downs since the NYC series' inception. Ramona and Jill are the best of frenemies and had their fill of name calling, screaming, and overly dramatic crying jags. And here's the Jill we've been waiting for the last forty minutes. There is discussion of Ramona's wine at the charity event, and Jill jumps down Alex's throat about meddling. Alex should know better. Meddling is Jill's
hobby job. Jill hasn't even had a chance to mention that Ramona wore cream to a wedding…tackyville! Alex tries to place herself back in the controversy and Jill calls her a f*cking bitch. Claws are out now! Oh snap! She whose name rhymes with Fethfenny is brought up and Jill accuses Ramona and Alex of being jealous of her past relationship with the Skinnygirl maven. Andy is confused as he sincerely believes that Ramona was trying to mend Jill and Mrs. Hoppy's troubled relationship. Jill is frightened by the modern day Martha Stewart, and Luann can't blame her. The ladies are all in the ring, and it's brought up that Jill talks crap behind people's backs while Ramona does it to people's faces under the guise of just not thinking before she speaks. Yes and yes. When Ramona says she doesn't ever mean harm, Jill pretends to vomit.
Andy calls out the ladies for "acting like beasts" after repeatedly telling them to shut up. Go Andy! Although, they aren't really listening to him…Andy brings up Jill's (off camera) fight with Mario, and Ramona wants Andy to stop with this line of questioning. Jill gossiping about Mario's cheating resurfaces, and Luann is quick to point out that she never insinuated Mario had cheated. She didn't? Jill explains her behavior by saying she was just repeating what she'd heard from other members of their social circle.
On a lighter note, Andy shows a montage of the blondes, mainly just Ramonja (sorry Alex)…and Jill is quick to
instigate point out Alex's absence. That Jill, always worrying about Alex's well being. There are a lot of scenes of Sonja sans undies…or in tiny undies in uber short skirts. Kelly brings up how hurt she was when she was flashed by Sonja's vajuniper at Sonja's toaster oven cookbook photo shoot. Kelly feels it was disrespectful, and Andy takes this opportunity to ask Sonja if her lady bits were ever purposely rude to Kelly. Pass the jelly beans. Sonja also admits that her love story with artist Bryan has come to an end.
Kelly's voice of reason is Andy's next target, and Bravo has managed to include a season's worth of domineering and sand angels (well, I wish there were sand angels) crammed into a thirty second video clip. Andy wonders how Kelly went from appearing to be unstable last season to asserting herself this season. Was it meds? Counseling? Well, Kelly admits that she was just sick and tired of being interrupted, so she has become the interrupter. Alex then calls out Kelly for how out there she seemed with her Santa comment regarding the henna tattoo. Much like with her comments about Sonja's home, Kelly is curious as to what Alex is even talking about. She backtracks/sidesteps/denies everything she has said this season. Andy brings up Kelly's past abusive relationship, and while she doesn't want to discuss it, she is thankful to ex-husband Gille for saving her. Once again, no one mentions Kelly's arrest and sentencing just 2 years ago for domestic violence against her boyfriend. Fethfenny is brought up again, and Kelly is quick to say that she's not in competition with her, they just don't mesh well.
Cindy is in the hot seat as the newest cast member who came out of the gates guns blazing. Cindy admits that she found the blondes extremely irritating. Ramona is upset again about her fight with Cindy's brother. Ramona can't get over the fact that Cindy's brother wore her dead friend's suit to the wedding. Andy, would you wear a dead man's suit to a party? "Um, I don't think so." When Alex inserts herself (yet again) into the argument, Cindy tells her to stay out of it. Then, a panting (yes, panting!) Alex tells Cindy she needs to get laid! This is amazing! The pecking order comment is highlighted, and Andy has to practically put the ladies in time out. Sonja paints the picture like several readers suspected…Sonja wasn't implying that there was a hierarchy, she was saying Cindy needed to respect the woman who brought her on the show. Next, Andy moves on to the conference call at breakfast and even Luann admits she was horrified by Cindy's behavior. Cindy stands up and yells that none of the ladies can tell her what to do. She seems oblivious to her behavior. Alex puts in her two cents…duh. Kelly butts in saying she feels the need to be the peacemaker, but Andy is like, yeah, that is the exact opposite of what you're doing. Again, Luann agrees with Andy and tries to calm an eye-rolling Kelly.
Quoque is brought up and Cindy is insulted at how the blondes reacted to her party. The blonde sofa starts throwing out insults, while Andy tries to calm the group. Luann jokingly tells Cindy to take the chance to speak when she can, a reference to how much the blondes are railroading her, but Cindy, who's clearly not built for this drama, bites, "Don't tell me what to do." I think Luann's patience for Cindy is probably fading after that. I know mine is. Cindy accuses Ramona of being too drunk to ride real horses, and the rest of the argument was a jumbled mess.
Luann and Ramona's friendship (I'll use that term loosely) is brought up next. Luann was hoping that Ramona would be more supportive of her and feels like it was insulting for Ramona to talk about her marriage and her children during the season. That "weekend parent" comment was rude? Thin skin, Countess. Ramona thinks that Luann is condescending. So does the rest of the world. The Countess basically tells her to mind her own business. Ramona keeps talking about Luann's open marriage, and Luann keeps saying her previous marriage is none of Ramona's business…but she doesn't deny the open marriage accusation. Ramona brings up Luann's problems with Victoria, and cue up Jill's Chris Crocker impersonation – "Leave LuAnn Alone!" It was below the belt, and the first half of the reunion ends with Jill threatening to leave if the ladies continue attacking each others' children
that are climbing up her leg.
WWHL, how I was counting the minutes until your air time! I can never get enough Neil Patrick Harris (thanks for being out Monday morning, Regis–a double daily dose of NPH!). After watching the reunion, NPH likens the entire experience to having a horrible migraine. He was appalled at everyone's behavior and thinks all the ladies need to hit the road–he doesn't like any of them. Andy asks about Alex, and he responds, "The Frankenstein-y one?" Yes! Andy is diplomatic, saying that he believes the brunettes ganged up on her (probably a little true), and NPH says, "With fantastic reason! It was awfully offensive." Hilar! Sadly though, NPH doesn't watch the show religiously and he seems to be a Kelly fan. Nobody's perfect.
Andy shows a montage of him telling the women to shut up multiple times during the reunion, and all I can say is bless his heart. NPH is not on board with these ladies, and I am realizing we have more in common than I thought. After a highlight reel of Alex's–Everyone Loves Alex!– dramatic moments on the reunion, she tweets, "And to think I liked you, Doogie Howser." Watch it, Alex…don't be insulting my Barney. Switching to his personal life, there is a viewer question about NPH's relationship. NPH reveals that while he has no immediate plans for a wedding, he and partner David will be getting married at some point. Can I get an invite? The evening's game spans the entire episode, and it's What Can't NPH Do? The answer? Nothing. He can shoot liquor; he can make pretty decent balloon animals; he can rap on command; and, getting back to his doctor-acting roots, he can diagnose medical issues. Other things we need to know about NPH? He wears boxer briefs. He is intrigued by gingers (in a good way), and he can pretty much quote his former co-star Max Casella's (that's Vinnie, you guys!) acting resume. Andy's Mazel is Mariah Carey's return to the Home Shopping Network, and his jackhole is the debt ceiling. With a record number of votes for a poll, Sonja wins the title of favorite NYC housewife with a quarter of the votes. Mazel, readers!
UPDATE – Below are the poll results from WWHL. Sonja won with over 25% of the votes. Despite tweeting the Bravo number for voting to her over 180,000 twitter followers, Jill still only managed to come in second. By the way, none of the other housewives solicited votes – RT.

Hope Springs (Vanessa Taylor)
Starring: Meryl Streep, Tommy Lee Jones, Steve Carell, Ben Rappaport, Marin Ireland, Elisabeth Shue
My thoughts on this film: I saw the trailer and thought it looked hilarious, but then I went on to watching the movie...
I expected nothing but greatness from such a wonderful cast and got... nothing!
With some funny moments, this looked more like a romantic story than the comedy it was supposed to be. Steve Carell was not funny at all, Meryl Streep was the romantic and clumsy wife in love with her husband - nothing new there and this sounds funnier than it actually was -, leaving Tommy Lee Jones with all the funny lines.
Some bits were a little too mushy and awkward for my taste; however, to be fair, it was not all so bad, I did laugh, but overall this movie was disappointing.

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - A watchdog group says all 50 states and the District of Columbia have more lax financial disclosure rules for their high court justices than the disclosure requirements for federal judges.
The Center for Public Integrity says three states - Montana, Utah and Idaho - don't require high court judges to publicly report their personal financial interests at all.
Other states, such as California and Hawaii, scored relatively well for more robust rules and for putting the reports online.
Some states don't require any disclosure of gifts to state justices. Others have limits on gifts, but with loopholes.
The report cited Iowa, which allows justices to receive gifts worth any amount for their wedding or for their 25th and 50th wedding anniversaries.

Double R Racing is delighted to confirm multiple Cooper Tires British Formula 3 International Series race winner Rupert Svendsen-Cook will drive for the squad during the eighth event of the season next weekend, 8th/9th September, at Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit in Northamptonshire.
Marking the Ipswich 21-year-old's first appearance of the year in British F3, having finished fifth in the championship in 2011 with two victories and a total of nine podiums to his credit, the talented Briton will pilot the Mercedes-powered Dallara F312 previously raced by Malaysia's Fahmi Ilyas.
"We're absolutely delighted to have done a deal with Rupert to race with us at Silverstone", said Double R Racing principal Anthony 'Boyo' Hieatt, "He's a very quick driver, a proven winner in F3 and fantastic to work with – we can't wait to get out there next weekend.
"In testing last week Rupert was fast and liked the car so we've got high hopes for three strong races from him. The deal is currently just for Silverstone but we'd obviously like to run Rupert to the end of the season and also at Macau. We're confident he'll put Double R back where we should be."
After one season in Formula BMW UK and two years in Formula BMW Europe, Svendsen-Cook graduated into British F3 in 2010 and made a sensational series debut at Oulton Park by winning only his second race. He went on to conclude his maiden campaign seventh overall.
Due to budget limitations he has only contested two races so far in 2012, in the European F3 Open, but starred on his maiden weekend in the category with a podium finish at Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit in mid-July. In the meantime, while not actively competing himself, the British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC) Rising Star has been working closely with Double R during the year as a driver coach.
Australian duo aiming for strong continuation to rookie season
Double R regulars Geoff Uhrhane and Duvashen Padayachee will continue their rookie F3 campaigns at Silverstone next weekend, in the International Class and National Class respectively, and the two ever-improving Australians will be aiming to continue that trend.
The team's best result of the season so far, fourth place in round 15 at the Norisring in Germany, came courtesy of 21-year-old Uhrhane and while facing a massive step from Formula Ford into the aerodynamic-driven world of Formula 3, the Gold Coast driver has shown his undoubted potential.
Padayachee, meanwhile, has won five races in the National Class so far in his maiden season and will arrive at Silverstone second in the championship, just 34 points shy of the lead. Like his compatriot, the 22-year-old from Sydney has developed strongly throughout his debut season in Formula 3 and will be keen to add to his victory tally next weekend at the wheel of his Dallara Mugen-Honda.
"Geoff and Duvashen have both improved massively since the start of the season, and we've been making big steps forward with the car as well, so we're very positive ahead of Silverstone", said Hieatt, "Year one in F3 is always a huge learning curve but they've both done a great job so far."
Following officially timed testing at Silverstone next Friday, 7th September, qualifying and round 24 of the Cooper Tires British F3 International Series will take place at 10.40 and 15.15 respectively on Saturday, 8th September. Rounds 25 and 26 will follow on Sunday, 9th September, at 10.30 and 16.15.
2012 Cooper Tires British Formula 3 International Series Driver Standings (after Rd23):
11th Fahmi Ilyas, 48pts; 12th Geoff Uhrhane, 30pts
2012 Cooper Tires British Formula 3 International Series 'National Class' Standings (after Rd23):

Like forming some sort of cooperative group, each guy doing their "thing" but for a common goal? It would be pretty cool to watch a demonstration on some random site just to see how quickly it can be effected and how long it works for. Or do you ever have like an SEO "dance-off", random subject, and see who's black-hat mojo works best? Just got to wondering that's all

Serves 4-6 people
1 4-5 lb. fully cooked, spiral-cut ham on the bone
6 garlic cloves peeled
8 ounces blood orange marmalade
1/2 cup whole grain Dijon mustard
zest of 1 blood orange,
1/2 cup freshly squeezed blood orange juice
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
Preheat the oven to 350°
In a glass measuring cup add the garlic, mustard, marmalade, blood orange zest, and blood orange juice and blend with an immersion blender. ( you could use a standard blender as well) Add the brown sugar and mix to dissolve the sugar. Place the ham in a roasting pan (smaller is better so the glaze wont burn on the bottom. Pour the glaze over the ham and bake for 30 minutes, then baste with glaze from the bottom (this gives you a mixture of hard crack and sticky) Bake another 30 minutes or until the ham is warm and the glaze looks delicious. Move to a platter and garnish with blood orange segments and bay leaves. Serve either warm or at room temperature.

Oh my, the Focus on the Anus folks are really losing it this time. Watch Stuart Shepard, commentator on FotF's "Stoplight" series, urge bible-beaters to pray for "rains of biblical proportions" during Barack Obama's acceptance speech at Mile High Stadium in Denver. The hilarity was so embarrassing that Focus pulled it from its web site.
When the video disappeared from the Focus Action site, it also became unavailable through YouTube and many sites that linked to it.
…The video's point, Shepard said, is that in his view Obama has not clearly stated his stances on abortion and gay marriage, important themes within the Christian right.
"I'm still pro life, and I'm still in favor of marriage as being between one man and one woman," Shepard said in the video. "And I would like the next president who will select justices for the next Supreme Court to agree."
Too bad, so sad for Daddy D…you cannot hide on the Internets…

This week I bring you two fine ass black chicks. Here we have Chyanne Jacobs and Anna Belle, but they like to go by "High Tone Yellow Bone" and "Chocolate Fantasy". Anyways, Alex and I met up with them on the beach. Of course I had them do some public ass shaking, and then it was off to the crib for some real fun. These ebony girls had great asses. One was big and loose enough to grab hold of, and the other was firm as shit, but round as a globe. The girls played with each other for a while, and then it was Alex's turn. The ladies gave him a great double team blow job. Then it was time for Alex to work those pussies. This sex session lasted for a good while. It was like a sexual...

Teenager injured by golf ball struck by Rory Mcllroy
A 16-year-old boy was hit on the head by an errant drive from the world's number two golfer, Rory McIlroy, at the Open Championship at Royal Lytham and St Annes.
Jason Blue, from Bristol, was taken to a first aid point just behind the 15th fairway, where he was standing when he was hit - after the Northern Irish star had come over to apologise and given him an autographed glove.
He was then moved to the main medical HQ at the course where he was seen by a doctor.
Jason was allowed to leave and sent home in a courtesy car after about 45 minutes, having been given something to eat and drink.
He had a bruise on his head but no stitches and left the course without a bandage or dressing.
The incident cost McIlroy a double bogey on the 15th after his drive struck Jason, went 20 yards right and finished out of bounds by a few inches.
Jason said: "I can remember something hit me in the head and I fell over. I thought what the hell was that? What's hit me - it must be a golf ball.
"We couldn't see the tee because everyone down the side had umbrellas up and so we had no idea it was coming towards us even though they'd put their hands out on the tee.
"I closed my eyes with the shock of it as I tried to work out what had happened but I wasn't out cold and then there was people crowding around me.
"Rory came over and said 'Sorry, are you okay. I don't think this will help much but here you are' (giving him a signed glove). He was quite apologetic.
"I don't imagine he will be too happy with the fact I knocked it out of bounds - I'll apologise if I see him again.
"It's the first time I've seen Rory live in a tournament.
"We're camping at St Annes Cricket Club. I think we'll stay on for the rest of the week.
"My parents saw it on the TV. It took me a while to call them and tell them I was okay.
"They have tickets for the weekend so they are coming up tomorrow.
"The doctor has told me to take it easy for the next few days so we'll just go back and relax tonight.
"I still want Rory to do well and I'll probably go out and watch him tomorrow."
Ross Furnival, 17, was standing next to his friend at the time and feared the worst.
"There was blood coming out of his head. I thought he was dead," he said.
McIlroy said: "I hit it slightly right and got an unfortunate break. It went 20 yards right off his head. He could have headed it the other way!
"The most important thing was that he was okay."

The "noise" depicted on the cover of the June issue of E&S magazine is a screenshot from a video representation of Richard Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries," which is played at ear-splitting volume at 7 a.m. on the dot every morning during finals week at Caltech. The image seen above was created for E&S by motion-graphics designer Ryan Luse. But that's not all it is. In keeping with the issue's theme—noise, and finding the signal within the noise—we've hidden a signal on the cover image as well. It is, appropriately enough, the word noise. Can you find it? Here's a hint: Check out the light-colored "spikes."*

A 50 cm length of ribbon costs x dollars. Find an expression for the cost of y meters of ribbon. Give your answer to its simplest form.
My solution:
Let y = the total cost for a certain amount of x ribbons
Let x = the cost per ribbon
I write a linear equation to express a relation between x, y and 50.
I say the equation is y = 50x.
Is this correct? If not, why not?

I thought last week's molecule would be a challenge but Sandwalk readers came up with the correct answer even in the middle of summer in the Northern hemisphere. Considering how well you did last week, following up with this week's "molecule" should be a gift.
Identify the thing shown here and relate it to a Nobel Laureate.
The first person to identify the "molecule" and the Nobel Laureate(s), wins a free lunch. Previous winners are ineligible for six weeks from the time they first won the prize.
There are six ineligible candidates for this week's reward: Bill Chaney of the University of Nebraska, Ian Clarke of New England Biolabs Canada in Pickering ON, Canada. Dima Klenchin of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, Dara Gilbert of the University of Waterloo, Anne Johnson of Ryerson University, and Cody Cobb, soon to be a graduate student at Rutgers University in New Jersey.
I have an extra free lunch for a deserving undergraduate so I'm going to continue to award an additional prize to the first undergraduate student who can accept it. Please indicate in your email message whether you are an undergraduate and whether you can make it for lunch.
Nobel Laureates
Send your guess to Sandwalk (sandwalk (at) bioinfo.med.utoronto.ca) and I'll pick the first email message that correctly identifies the molecule(s) and names the Nobel Laureate(s). Note that I'm not going to repeat Nobel Prizes so you might want to check the list of previous Sandwalk postings by clicking on the link in the theme box.
Correct responses will be posted tomorrow.

Greatest Hits Volume 1
"America's best band is…Canadian." – Rolling Stone * 14 essential tracks * 2 previously unreleased tracks Blue Rodeo are one of Canada's greatest bands, having sold almost four million albums worldwide. Greatest Hits collects 14 essential tracks on one exceptional CD, pulled from their catalog of nine albums. Featured are the poignant ballad "Try," the guitar-powered "Side of the Road" (from the group's psychedelic masterpiece Nowhere to Here), and their recent hit "Bulletproof." Two previously unreleased recordings – their unique take on the Bee Gee's classic "To Love Somebody" (complete with fiddles and pedal steel) and a live version of "After The Rain" – make this, their first ever compilation, even more special.

Yes – my getting-rid-of-plugins crusade just got another boost, thanks to the latest version of Thesis.
Please note: I give you both the good and the bad in my reviews (including this one), but I'm an affiliate for Thesis and that means I will get some commission if you were to buy Thesis through the links on this page.
See my Disclosure for more details.
OK, so the focus in Thesis 1.7 is on SEO and site management.
The Thesis admin pages in the admin area have been re-organised and added to.
So you now have a Site Options page which used to be Thesis Options. It does the same things as Thesis Options, but it's been extended to include a lot of SEO controls.
You also now have a Page Options screen which extends your SEO controls to Category and Tags pages.
Rather than try to write about these, I've made a quick video to show you around the new SEO features in the Site Options and Page Options pages:
Site Management
The Design Options and Custom File Editor pages are the same as before, but another addition is the Manage Options page.
I love this one because it enables me to export all the Thesis settings to an external file which I can store on my PC. I can then import these settings to another instance of Thesis 1.7.
I do Thesis customisation and implementation projects for people, and this feature means I no longer have to do the 'on-site' configuration steps whenever I deliver a new site to a customer.
I simply import the Thesis options from the development site that the client has already approved.
Also, using the SEO controls I referred to in the video above, I've configured my development sites to have the most effective SEO settings possible. So from now on I can ensure that every site I build for a customer is also fully optimised for the search engines – all pre-set in my development site.
Here's a quick video tour of the Manage Options page:
Ugrading – How Did it Go?
I upgraded 5 sites the other day and 4 of them went without a hitch. But the 5th one threw up some problems:
For some reason the nav bar settings that were set up in Thesis 1.6 were not carried across to 1.7. The result was that the nav bar titles were all over the place and only 3 of the 6 pages actually appeared.
It was an easy enough fix – I just went to the Thesis Site Options page and re-set the settings in the 'Pages' section of the Navigation Menu.
The site in question is set up as a static site and I haven't, therefore, given the home page a title. For some reason 1.7 freaked out at this and displayed an empty, half-width space on the Nav bar.
This, again, was pretty easily fixed by going into the 'Home Link' section and checking the box marked 'Show Home Link in Nav Menu' and accepting the default Home link text.
Easy enough fixes, both, but they shouldn't have been necessary and didn't arise on the other 4 sites I upgraded.
One more point: if you're upgrading from Thesis 1.6 be sure to read the instructions for preserving your customisations, because they're slightly different from before. Rather than simply uploading your saved Custom folder you now need to upload the contents of it.
Other than that the upgrades went without any hitches.
Overall, then this upgrade gives you a lot more control over the SEO elements on your site.
It completely removes the need for the All-in-one-SEO-Pack plugin (and Platinum SEO, Headspace, and other plugins that do the same). It also removes the need for the Robots-META plugin that I'd been using for a while.
However – a word of warning: if you've been using the All-in-one-SEO pack for a while and you deactivate it, all the Title, Description and Keywords tags on all your articles will be wiped out.
So, as much as I'd like to drop it from this site I can't, because I'd then have to go through every single article and page and re-set all those tags – which I simply don't have the time to do.
If you only have a few articles on your site then definitely I'd recommend making the changes and, for new sites, there's absolutely no need to install any of those SEO plugins if you're running Thesis 1.7.
Previous versions of Thesis introduced different areas of functionality and you can see the full scoop here:
I've written a series of tutorials on Thesis, which you can find here, and if Thesis sounds interesting get more details here.
Questions on Thesis? Or on upgrading? Leave us a comment.
