On Site and Off Site SEO techniques for 2015
In 2015 SEO experts have to face many challenges with change in attitude and behavior of Google by latest search algorithm. Thus, with all this revolution in the world of search engine optimization it has become important for SEO marketers to devise new ways to improve their field of SEO.
Some basic techniques that can help SEO marketers to meet need of modern search engine are as follow:
Informative and quality content is what users actually look for
No matter how change the attitude of search engine is, one thing will always be valued by users as well as by search engines and that is good quality content. Quality of content is measured by different factors.
These factors include type of content written that is content should be descriptive in nature however; it should be too long that it become boring for reader. So along with description content should be able to build interest of the reader.
Second thing that will evaluate quality of content is how unique the content is. Unique information always entices readers. These things enhance quality as well as ranking of any content used for SEO purpose.
Title and Meta Description
Title of the content should be search engine optimized and therefore, it should not only be relevant to contentbut should be integrated with keyword phrase in effective way. It is recommended that length of title should not exceed 65 characters.
Along with title content should include Meta description that should be short in length and provide necessary information at first glance. This Meta description is still valued by search engines.
Use of keywords
Nowadays, content stuffed with keywords is highly discouraged by search engines. Right keyword density should be maintained in the content and keywords should be used if and when required.
Likewise, you can use keyword within URL of the content as meaningful URL is appreciated by search engines. Content should be well structured and using headings enhance readability of the content to great extent.

There was a time when sequels were the main game for Hollywood blockbusters, and of course follow-ups and continuations like Spider-Man 3, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and so on are still the norm. But another type of franchise flick has entered the sequel zeitgeist recently, and often it has proven to be the most invigorating option for many a tired series: the prequel. Sometimes also dubbed the "reboot," these "begins" style films seek to trim the excess fat that inevitably builds up on franchises, while also revisiting the origins of a character &#Array; often to great effect. Batman Begins, Casino Royale, Hannibal Rising and the upcoming and highly anticipated Star Trek redux are but a few examples of this phenomenon.
And yet, despite the many prequels that have already been made in recent years, there are still so many other franchises that have grown old and tired, but still remain iconic and immensely popular, and that could truly use the "begins" treatment for a good dose of reinvigoration. What follows then is a handful of suggestions for some previously great blockbuster series that truly need a cinematic facelift. But this list is just the beginning: E-mail IGN Movies when you're done here and fill us in on the franchises that you think need a brand spanking new prequel, rather than just another weary sequel!
Lowdown: Born in the wasteland of indie Australian filmmaking of the '80s, the Mad Max trilogy evolved from a successful if localized hit with its first entry into a crossover success, the more polished and visceral The Road Warrior, and finally into the bloated and unnecessary finale (with Tina Turner!), Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome.
Series Status: Director George Miller has attempted several times to make a fourth Mad Max film, with rumored plot points including a son for Max as well as the hero's death. Most recently, the outbreak of the Iraq war was said to be the reason for the film being cancelled (shooting was to have taken place in the region), but really, does anyone actually believe that post-Passion of the Christ big-time director Mel Gibson would return to this series anyway? And besides, the Road Warrior would never drink or drive &#Array; or say "sugart--s."
How to Reboot: The enigma of the Mad Max films was that they all took place after the apocalypse that had led the remnants of mankind to its penchant for wearing leather and tooling around the Wasteland looking for "gazzoline." Certainly, a "begins" prequel could show us the world-ending event itself, even if only in a prologue, and then perhaps detail Max and his family's tragic origins more directly against the backdrop of the immediate post-apocalypse &#Array; something that budget just didn't allow on the original film.
Casting, 21st Century Style: With Gibson out, the most logical choice to strap on the sawed-off shotgun as Max would be Mel's fellow Aussie and current hot young star Heath Ledger, of course.
Lowdown: Prior to James Cameron's release of The Terminator in 1984, the filmmaker's only previous credit as a director was Piranha: Part Two &#Array; The Spawning. So who could have expected the marvels of this sci-fi actioner: the killer cyborgs, the time-traveling hero, the romance &#Array; not to mention the cheese of the '80s. Ditto for the 1991 sequel, T2: Judgment Day, which amped up all of the above (less the feathered hair) with Cameron's increasingly refined technically savvy. But what a waste the long-awaited Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines was; with Cameron out of the picture, the result was nothing but a rehash of the earlier films &#Array; only with none of the amazement of those modern classics.
Series Status: A Terminator 4 is said to be in the works, while a pilot for a potential Fox TV show called The Sarah Connor Chronicles is being produced with Lena Headey (300) in the lead role and Thomas Dekker (Heroes) playing the young John Connor. The show sounds interesting &#Array; it returns to the era after T2, when Connor was a 15-year-old kid, rather than a wimpy 28-year-old Nick Stahl. But fears of a "terminator of the week" premise have fans raising their collective cyborg eyebrow.
How to Reboot: With series star Arnold Schwarzenegger firmly entrenched in the world of politics now, it seems unlikely that he would ever return to the film series anyway, so why not restart the entire franchise? Picture this: The film opens in the war-ravaged aftermath of the supercomputer Skynet's nuclear attack. Kyle Reese, a low-level foot soldier in the human resistance against machines, is summoned by the legendary warrior John Connor. He must travel back in time on a super-secret mission, but a variety of Terminator models are likely to follow him into the past &#Array; T-800s, T-1000s and T-Xs. You can see the poster now: Only in the past will Kyle Reese discover &#Array; his destiny. Of course, Reese is the great, if sorta forgotten, character from the first film played by Michael Biehn, but wouldn't it be awesome if he finally got to run the franchise his way and not have to rely on little old Sarah &#Array; or worse, die?
Casting, 21st Century Style: Why not cash in on the geek casting for this one and hire Battlestar Galactica's Jamie Bamber (Apollo) or Tahmoh Penikett (Helo) to play Reese? Or get real funky with it and give the role to James "Baltar" Callis.

Vegetarians Have Lower Blood Pressure
Vegetarians Have Lower Blood Pressure
Vegetarian diets support a healthy blood pressure, according to a review published in JAMA Internal Medicine. Researchers identified 39 studies which analyzed the dietary choices and blood pressures of adults. Vegetarian diets were associated with lower systolic and diastolic blood pressures, compared with omnivorous diets. This review is consistent with other studies and stresses the significance of a dietary approach to preventing and reducing the risk for hypertension.

Here's a scenario – two applications talking to each other through TCP binary protocol (proprietary – I work in a corporation, remember?). Both written in C#. A somewhat atypical client server with a pub-sub mechanism. One subscribes for events, and then the other initiates the connection and delivers the events. If there are no events for some time, the connection is torn down. Every once in a couple of weeks, the application delivering the events hangs. The thread count rises to > 500 and there are no events sent to the receiver.
This is the situation as was described to me at some point. I knew one of the applications (and knew it was not written well) so I started digging.
One word about problem reproduction – white rare, we noticed that certain pattern of events seemed to trigger it, so after ensuring there is nothing special about the events themselves, but the pattern, we managed to reproduce it way more often (every couple of hours).
First thing was to use my all time favourite tool WinDBG. Often unappreciated, always underestimated, usually little known.
and oddly enough, the clrstack of sender thread shows constantly something like this:
0028ec64 77c2f861 [InlinedCallFrame: 0028ec64]
0028ec60 5fb38033 DomainBoundILStubClass.IL_STUB_PInvoke(IntPtr, Byte*, Int32, System.Net.Sockets.SocketFlags)
0028ec64 5fae6b3d [InlinedCallFrame: 0028ec64] System.Net.UnsafeNclNativeMethods+OSSOCK.send(IntPtr, Byte*, Int32, System.Net.Sockets.SocketFlags)
0028ec9c 5fae6b3d System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Send(Byte[], Int32, Int32, System.Net.Sockets.SocketFlags, System.Net.Sockets.SocketError ByRef)
0028eccc 5fae6a5d System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Send(Byte[], Int32, Int32, System.Net.Sockets.SocketFlags)
0028ecec 5fae6983 System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Write(Byte[], Int32, Int32)
How can that be ? The events are small packets, network is healthy, etc. Some googling reveals the answer when such thing can happen – the other side keeps the connection open, but doesn't read. This explains the thread count (there is a lock around the write and the thread pool is receiving some data and generating events is being set up with a 500 limit), but not the behavior of the whole system.
The system works fine most of the time (two nines or something ;), why can the write (or rather read) problem occur so infrequently, we examined the reading code multiple times and it looks good! Some two gallons of coffee later, an epiphany about the nature of the traffic patter descents on us – it's disconnecting every now and then, and the problem surfaces always about the same number of events (couple hundred) after the disconnection. The problem has got to be in the connection acceptance.
We later found out that it indeed was. There was a race condition between the callback of network stream's BeginRead and the actual assignment of some delegates that were supposed to handle the received data. Most of the time everything worked fine, but every now and then with unlucky thread interleaving the subsequent BeginRead was not called. What happens in such cases ? Connection is kept alive and healthy, the OS is actually receiving the data into its own buffer (hence the couple of hundred messages that were successfully sent from the event generating application), but the moment this buffer is filled to the brim, it asks the sender to wait (one can actually see the zero window size reported in Wireshark) and the sender blocks the Write call.
The TcpClient's Write call actually has a version which allows you to provide a timeout – if your call isn't returning after say 5 seconds, there most likely is a problem underneath.
Tcp BeginRead and EndRead have yet another quirky behavior which manifests in really weird way, but that's a topic for a separate post

8th June,colombo/
Free media movement notes with disappointment that in continuing post election violence in the eastern province forth journalist in Kathankudi, Batticoloa district have been intimidated. It comdemens all these attacks in strongest terms.
In latest attack, on 5th July journalist M.A.C. Jalees was assaulted by political party supporters and his camera was taken away. Earlier journalists T.L.M. Joufer Khan, M.S.M. Noordeen, Moulavi S.M.M. Musthapha were either threatened or assaulted in the same area. All these journalists belong to Muslim community.
As a non violence protest to continuing violence against journalists in the area Kathnkudi Journalists Forum distributed thousands of handbills soon after the Friday prayers in and around Kathnakudi. Hand bill which condemns the tactics of intimidating journalists warned that if these intimidations are not halted all journalists in Kathankudi will stop work.
The hand bill was singed by the Kathankudi Media Forum (KMF) .Journalists T.L.M. Joufer Khan, M.S.M. Noordeen, A.L.M. Fazlulhaq, Moulavi S.M.M. Musthapha, M.I. Rahmathullah, and M.A.C. Jalees who singed the hand bill state that they were psychologically affected due to continuous threats and assaults on the media personnel.
Kathankudi police has not investigated any of these incidents to completion so far. FMM expresses its fears that police may not be taking any action as these attacks are linked to a powerful, ruling party politician in the area. As FMM noted in one of its previous alerts head of the Kathankudi police has shown clear bias towards this politician and the ruling party. He did not take any meaningful action to stop wide scale election mal practices and violence that took place on May 10th PC election in Kathankudi.
FMM hold ruling party responsible for these anti media activities and view these tactics as a part of increasing suppression of freedom of expression rights in Sri Lanka.

Pogba the number one target for Manchester City who are prepared to use Toure as makeweight in deal
Click here for the latest Paul Pogba transfer odds with Sky Bet
Manchester City have fallen well short of challenging for the Premier League title this season and the midfield department is about to undergo a revamp.
Yaya Toure's future at the club looks precarious after news emerged that City are keen to land the services of Paul Pogba and are even prepared to offer the Ivorian to Juventus as a makeweight in any potential deal.
Pogba was famously on the books at Manchester United before Sir Alex Ferguson decided that the French midfielder didn't have a future at the club, although the 22-year-old has since become an integral part of the Juve and French national team.
City's willingness to allow Toure to leave the club will surprise many, although the Ivorian has not enjoyed the best of seasons and has looked demotivated at times on the pitch.
The defensive side of his game has often been criticised and it appears that Manuel Pellegrini is prepared to instead build a team around Pogba who could have a long stint at the club.
The Guardian also report that Samir Nasri, Stevan Jovetic, Aleksandar Kolarov and Edin Dzeko are available and could also be used as part of the Pogba deal, with Paris Saint-Germain predictably also interested in the midfielder.
The latest odds would suggest that City have a chance of landing Pogba, with Sky Bet offering 6/4 that the Frenchman is at the Etihad Stadium next season, although the same bookie go 5/4 that he remains in Turin.
PSG are 4/1 to snap up a player who has the potential to be described as one of the world's best and stands on the verge of the Champions League final with Juventus after they beat Real Madrid 2-1 last week.
Pogba would be greatly interested in playing for Real Madrid or Barcelona according to reports, with Real a 7/1 chance to sign him although it is thought that the player would command £250,000 per week in wages.
At the end of March, Madrid representative Zinedine Zidane told Canal+: "When we are talking about a player like Pogba, it is only logical Real Madrid are interested in signing him. He is a player with immense potential, who still has an important margin for improvement. He is still young and has an exciting future ahead of him. Where Pogba will play next season? I don't know the answer to that question. You will have to ask him."
All odds were correct at time of posting.

Absence of menstruation
I`ve been having irregular menstration period during my early years...until i got married. my menstrual period became regular...i gave birth then i used birth control pills for almost 2 years and have regular monthly period... i went out of the country so i stopped taking pills but i manage to finish the whole pack and had regular menstrual flow for 4 months...but it stopped..i`m 2 months delayed...there were mild pain during the schedule of my period but no bleeding...what could be it`s cause?
There are many causes of irregular bleeding and beyond the scope of this site to make a diagnosis or cover all the possibilities. It could be a normal variation as your cycles are returning to normal after having them suppressed for years. You need to make sure you are not pregnant and have a work-up to rule out thyroid disorders, or pituitary tumors.

Raymond Steed was a freshfaced lad barely into his teens when he went to war.
Five months later he was dead - blown up when his ship hit a Nazi mine.
Aged just 14 years and 207 days, he was the youngest British serviceman killed in the Second World War.
Now, 64 years on, his bravery is set to be marked with a statue.
The Merchant Navy Association wants to build the memorial as a tribute to the sailors who endured appalling conditions carrying vital supplies to help the war effort.
Vice-president Bertram Bale, 75, said: "It would honour not only Raymond but all the seamen who were killed in the war.
"The merchant seamen who manned the Atlantic convoys have not been given the recognition they deserve.
"It was a horrendous life with the fear U-boats could sink them at any time."
Adventure-loving Boy Scout Raymond joined the Merchant Navy two months after his 14th birthday in December 1942 - the minimum age with parental approval. The galley boy first served on the hospital ship Atlantis and won the Africa Star.
He was then transferred to freighter Empire Morn for a mission to carry munitions to Casablanca.
The ship looked to have completed its journey safely but it struck a U-boat mine a few miles off the North African city's coast. Raymond and 20 crew died.
His younger brother Kenneth, now 75, said yesterday: "The ship's captain visited us to say how brave he was. But my parents never got the chance to go to his grave in Casablanca - it was a different world then. He was so young to die like that and it would be marvellous for the family if they could build a memorial for him.
"It would be good for today's teenagers to realise what youngsters went through for their country."
Campaigners are hoping to build the £15,000 statue to Raymond in his home city of Newport, South Wales.

Need help looking for trace or via for smt (lifted pads)
I tried repairing a mainboard with a diy smt repair kit by removing the old smt with excess solder on both sides of the smt and accidentally lifted some pads, anyway i can still continue or am I screwed? I did some searching and it looks like i can use wrapping wire and solder it to the smt to a trace or via? Don't know where to put them..
I tried doing the diy repair because there aren't any replacement part I can buy. The TV I'm trying to repair is a vizio e470va that doesn't have a picture when turned on.
Is this a good question?
Decided to try and sell it for parts, thanks for all the help.

Brandir's story begins with that of his older brother Gelmir. The two are born, together with a third sister, from a poor Sea Elf family living in the miserable village of Grilm, on the coast of the Wasteland. Father dies at sea when the children are young. Mother is slain by Greenskins during a raid, while the kids hide under the bed. The three survive by begging and stealing.
Then, at some point Brandir's story takes a different turn, a grimmer one than his siblings who will eventually get saved and adopted. Little Brandir, while in the gutters of Zeaburg, is lured with an apple by a smiling man and invited into a private house. He gets a hit on the head and drops unconscious. He is taken away. The man is a thief and smuggler, and he also, in his own way, adopts Brandir, but he is far less kind than Elmerin. Brandir learns to steal and stab and trick and becomes, willing or not, part of Johann the Lame's band of footpads and cutthroats. They spend most of their time in Marienburg but travel the Wasteland when times are hard and the guards are on their trail.
Years pass, and eventually Johann the Lame gets old. Brandir has little love for him and, at the first good chance, he takes over the band and offers the old man a kind choice between retiring to a dilapidated country hut with little to no pension, but alive, or retire at the bottom of a canal of the Kruiersmuur, with no need of any pension. Johann makes the wise choise.
A few members of the band, the old ones, leave, but new ones join and soon Brandir's band increases its business substantially. The Elf is young and less cautious than Johann, taking risks that offer high returns. He seems blessed by Ranald, and his reputation grows, until one day he is introduced to an ascending merchant, going by the name of Johann Hess.
In order to make his family rich, Hess has his fingers in many pies, including illegal ones. Smuggling is one of them and, with his activities growing, he needs to outsource the extra job to smart people. Soon Brandir starts making a lot of money, especially with those new shipments of closed crates coming from Norsca. All marked with a red X and solidly nailed so no one can spy their contents.
It is when some members of his band start displaying strange signs of mutation that Brandir decides to do what he has been explicitly asked not to do: open one of the crates. It is full of shards of black, iridescent stone.
That is his last delivery. He goes to see Hess and tells him he's not feeling well and wants to leave the business for some time. But Hess guesses Brandir knows more than he says. The same night, coming back at his band's den, Brandir finds assassins. He barely escapes with a few men, but loses all his savings. At dawn he silently navigates the marshes on a rowboat, headed at Lame Johann's hut. It's empty, the old man must have died years ago.
Enraged at Hess's betrayal Brandir plans revenge, but he decides to wait - too many people are looking for him in Marienburg. He spends some time in the town of Bokel, across the frontier of Nordland, but he soon finds out the Warpstone has tainted him: he has started losing all the hair on his body.
It is several months after his flight that Brandir returns to Marienburg. By now he has become completely glabrous, even losing his eyelashes. He wears a hood over his head or, sometimes, a wig. He calls himself Gelmir, the name of his lost brother. Working isn't easy when nobody knows you and, desperate for money, Brandir enters a gambling house planning to get something to start again. But the games are rigged, and the house belongs to Hess. Soon he has an outstanding debt, and Hess's thugs are on his trail once again.
With two companions he boards a ship bound for Erengrad, where he hides for a while. It is here that his brother finds him: hunted by Hess, the real Gelmir find the impostor, recognizing him as his long lost, and now mutant, brother. Together, they vow revenge on Hess and on his network of warpstone smuggling, funded by the Skaven. And so it begins Brandir's life as a PC.
The miniature I choose for Brandir is no. 9 in 1988 Citadel Catalogue, Elf Warrior Category. It is marked as "Elf" and dated 1987, so it probably debuted on an earlier White Dwarf, The line is designed by Jes Goodwin and Aly Morrison: it's not clear who sculpted this particular figure but my guess is Jes Goodwin.
There are lots of things to like in this sculpt. The simplicity first of all. Lots of empty areas to freely paint. Then the shady look - there is something thievish with this hooded Elf, shield raised and sword reared, leather jacket, bag across the shoulder and a rope hanging from the side.
Missing the original shield, I recycled a 15mm Medieval shield which looks enough like a buckler, where I painted the device of Liria, a free city of sea merchants on the eastern borders of Tilea.

THE perilous job of remaking a film as lovely and memorable as was Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's great production of "The Barretts of Wimpole Street" was one that took confidence and courage, as well as superior craft and a cast that could match the performers who did it so beautifully in 1934. Yet all of those rare essentials have been put by the same studio into another fine production of the old romance. It opened at the Music Hall yesterday.In color and Cinemascope this time, where the other was in standard black-and-white, and with Jennifer Jones playing the poetess, performed by Norma Shearer before, the moving story of Elizabeth Barrett's romance with Robert Browning again comes to life and all the passion of her struggle with her father smolders and flames on the screen once more.If we note that those phases of the drama in which the daughter and the father are involved have more "meat and potatoes" in them than the phases in which Browning appears, it is not to say that the love story lacks ample substance and verve or that Bill Travers is unattractive in the robust Browning role. The love story here is enlivening, and Mr. Travers does very well as the ardent poet who sweeps the invalid Elizabeth onto rather than off of her feet.But the fire of this film is in the conflict that slowly and painfully evolves between the couch-ridden poetess and her father who would keep her in passive thrall to his pride and, indeed, his incestuous hunger, as it is finally revealed. In the grim evolution of this passion, so sternly and piously concealed beneath a rigid Victorian exterior, lies the real human drama of this tale. And it is good that these phases of the picture are most honestly and brilliantly played by John Gielgud as the father and by Miss Jones.Mr. Gielgud's skill as the vicious parent—his artful domination of his brood of nine (as we count them) grown children, his brutal forbiddance of their loves and his strange intrusions upon Elizabeth — accounts for much power in this film. And Miss Jones' strong responses to his dominance complements the tension perfectly.It is notable that Sidney Franklin, who directed this film as he did the previous one about the Barretts, has arranged with script writer John Dighton to have Elizabeth less sickly than she was in Miss Shearer's characterization, or in the original one on the Broadway stage by Katharine Cornell. From the outset, there is an obvious vigor and healthiness in Miss Jones, and soon after Robert Browning's first visit she is up on her feet and moving around.This mobility of the lady, which permits her to meet her suitor downstairs and even to have rendezvous with him in a flower-packed greenhouse in the park, does dispel the sense of imprisonment that came from her strict confinement to her room, but it does not dilute the basic drama. Nor does it crib the expansion of romance. Miss Jones is quite handsome and credible as a healthier heroine.In the roles of the other Barrett children, Virginia Mckenna is pretty and alert as Henrietta, the one who loves a guardsman; Maxine Audley is cool as Arabel, the quiet old maid, and Michael Brill, Kenneth Fortescue and others play the brothers well. Susan Stephen gushes as a cousin and Jean Anderson is excellent as a maid. Flush, the dog, is played to perfection by a charming spaniel not named in the cast.Mr. Franklin's direction is as sensitive and finished as it usually has been in years gone by, and the handsome production of Sam Zimbalist and his artisans is beautiful. It does one's heart good to visit once more that dramatic old house on Wimpole Street.On the stage at the Music Hall is a revue with a newspaper motif. Featured are the Great Richiardi, magician; Janik and Arnaut, dancers; George Sawtelle and Donna Monroe, soloists, and the Choral Ensemble, Corps de Ballet and Rockettes.Continue reading the main story

It's not often that Chase Elliott gets dwarfed by the moment on a racetrack.
Especially when the 17-year-old phenom winds up in Victory Lane.

The 14-year-old West Palm Beach native, living now in North Carolina, celebrated the Allen Turner Pro Late Model track championship.

Separated by a ho-hum 12 points heading into the Whataburger Night of Champions, Jones and Dulabhan will likely determine the Allen Turner Pro Late Model series track championship at the end of the Tune Up 100 on Saturday.
Needless to say, nerves were already going to be an issue.

It's good to be king.
But the effort, prudence and resolve that go into becoming king aren't, at times, all that rewarding or glamorous.
Brandon Howell certainly sounds like he's ready to become the Modifieds king during the Whataburger Night of Champions on Saturday night at Five Flags Speedway.
Howell enters the final night of the season nursing a slim, five-point lead over defending track champion Donnie Hamrac.
But instead of being anxious about holding onto that rickety cushion, Howell is taking a fairly laissez faire approach.

- With a Light Heart - charcoal on drawing paper, 4" x 6"
This charcoal drawing was inspired by a photograph with a lightning I liked. That's about the only thing that this little piece has in common with the photo. As I was making progress with it, facial features changed, the girl grew unruly hair that later became wet and unruly. Those matched the new face much better. It's interesting how a realistic artwork can almost draw itself.

Redmond finally allows activations with Windows 7 keys
Windows 10 Threshold 2 rolled out last week, and in addition to several improvements to apps and the operating system itself, it also brings one of the most awaited features since the debut of Microsofts new OS.
Threshold 2 finally makes it possible to activate a copy of Windows 10 with a Windows 7 or 8.1 key, which makes the upgrade process easier, especially for IT admins that need to perform this process on tens or hundreds of computers.
Previously, in order to fully activate a copy of Windows 10, users of Windows 7 or 8.1 first had to perform a direct upgrade to the new OS, allow it to be validated by Microsoft and only then do a clean install and start from scratch.

A New Bedford man and Fairhaven man were arrested for allegedly threatening a state police trooper and a New Bedford probation officer in a rap video posted on YouTube.
A New Bedford and a Fairhaven man were arrested Saturday for allegedly threatening a state police trooper and a New Bedford probation officer in a rap video posted on YouTube.com.
Rap lyrics in the four-minute video, which was posted Nov. 1, contain profanity and crude language that appear over a montage of crime scenes, police cars, weapons and dead bodies.
The rappers name a probation officer and a state police trooper. The mention of each name is followed by a photo of a gun and a shooting sound. The rappers also mention the New Bedford Police Department.
State police received a tip about the video, which led to the arrests.
Jason Foley, 28, of Fairhaven, was arrested at 4:40 p.m. Saturday and Matthew Rufino, 25, of New Bedford, was arrested at 12:15 a.m. Rufino pleaded not guilty today at his arraignment in New Bedford District Court and was ordered held on $150,000 bail. Foley had not yet been arraigned by 1:30 p.m. today.
Rufino and Foley are charged with two counts each of making threats to commit a crime; threats to use a firearm; and intimidation of a witness, according to state police.
The name of the video is "Watch 4 Me" and was produced by 508 Productions, according to video credits. "Watch 4 Me" can still be viewed on YouTube. A note of caution: the language is profane and crude and some of the photos are graphic.
Police say Rufino and Foley are members of 508 Productions, which has posted at least a half-dozen rap videos on MySpace and YouTube containing graphic images of gun violence, threats to kill anyone who crosses them, as well as derogatory and profane statements about police.
State police investigators have seized forensic evidence, and the investigation is ongoing in conjunction with the office of Bristol District Attorney Samuel Sutter, according to the state police.
- The New Bedford Standard-Times contributed to this report.

Director: Aleksey Balabanov
Writer: Aleksey Balabanov
Stars: Mikhail Skryabin, Yuri Matveyev,Aleksandr Mosin
Mikhail Trofimenkov: It seems as if your sense of world catastrophe grows greater with each film.
Aleksei Balabanov: Of course. My relatives are dying. I myself am aging. (Trofimenkov)
In better times, Yakut stoker Ivan Skriabin (Mikhail Skriabin) had a stellar military career: he had been a sapper in the Afghan war, a Hero of the Soviet Union, a Major with a chest full of medals. Now, retired from the military with a severe concussion, abandoned by his wife, and barely supported by an uncertain paycheck, he lives alone in his workplace, a vast factory basement where he keeps the furnaces running day and night. He spends his leisure moments sitting on his cot, typing out what he believes to be his own tale of good and evil. In fact, the story, entitled "Khailakh," had been written many decades earlier by Polish ethnographer Wacław Sieroszewski. It is a story that Skriabin had once heard, but now mistakes for his own story, all the more so as it eerily anticipates Skriabin's circumstances, a tale of Russian banditry and Yakut sacrifice.
Skriabin has a beloved adult daughter, Sasha. She co-owns a Yakut fur outlet with Masha, Russian daughter of Sergeant, a veteran-turned-gangster. One additional character completes the main cast. Bison, Sergeant's fellow gangster, is Sasha's boyfriend, or so she believes. In fact, Bison is the lover of both women, though neither knows of the other's liaison.
And so Stoker, at its barest level, is the story of five people: two fathers and their grown daughters, who share a man. Even without Balabanov's signature violence, this could not end well. When Masha discovers Bison at her rival's apartment; she turns to her father for help. Balabanov's script— laconic, dense, and brilliantly inarticulate—resolves this conflict in a mere eighteen pages; the film's inspired musical selections account for much of the 87 minutes of screen time.
Balabanov is often considered a divisive figure. I belong to those who consider him a genius, but it is not my primary intent here to plead that case. His emergent talent is usually traced from the 1997 release of Brother (Brat), but his gifts for wry whimsy were evident already in Happy Days (Schastlivye dni, 1991). After all, who is Stoker's Ivan Skriabin if not a later instance of the nameless hero of Happy Days, played by the young Viktor Sukhorukov? These two hapless, neurologically injured men inhabit the same city, but remain similarly homeless. They are also distant kin to the hero of Balabanov's short film Trofim (Trofim"), his contribution to the collaborative feature Arrival of a Train (Pribytie poezda, 1996). Already we see several elements of his signature style: the clueless, little man, who rises up against the accumulated indignities of the world; the city as modernity's id, a theatre for staging the hero's destruction; the battered trams, replicated in one form or another in many films to come;[1] the tight narrative structure that interlinks characters in ways to which they themselves have little access; the preternaturally comfortable fit between brutality and sentiment. What Brother eventually adds is a military element: the debilitated city as the battlefield's aftermath, its secondary killing field. Stoker continues this pattern.

Quick Reference
536 U.S. 304 (2002), argued 20 Feb. 2002, decided 20 June 2002 by vote of 6 to 3; Stevens for the Court, O'Connor, Kennedy, Souter, Ginsburg, and Breyer concurring, Rehnquist, Scalia, and Thomas in dissent. The issue before the Court was whether the execution of mentally retarded criminals is "cruel and unusual punishment" prohibited by the Eighth Amendment. Directly overturning Penry v. Lynaugh (1989), the Court held that such executions violate the Constitution. Relying primarily on the number of state legislatures that had enacted statutes prohibiting the execution of mentally retarded criminals and the consistent direction of such legislation since the Court's decision in Penry, the Court decided that the execution of mentally retarded criminals violated contemporary standards of decency. In addition to violating evolving standards of decency, the Court found that the execution of mentally retarded criminals constituted excessive punishment because it does not advance the deterrent and retributive purposes of the death penalty. The Court also determined that such executions increase the risk that death will be imposed in spite of factors that may call for a less severe penalty. In dissent, Justice Antonin Scalia accused the Court of basing its opinion on the personal views of its members rather than on a proper interpretation of the Eighth Amendment or an accurate assessment of current social attitudes. In a separate dissent, Chief Justice William Rehnquist took the Court to task for consulting foreign laws, the views of professional and religious organizations, and opinion polls, in its determination of what is a publicly acceptable punishment. Opponents of capital punishment have interpreted Atkins as signaling a decline in the Court's support for the death penalty, but others have contended that the Court merely acted to reduce the likelihood of bad convictions so as to assure the future of the death penalty in the United States.

Charles Busch Leads THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS with The Chelsea Symphony, 12/11
The Chelsea Symphony has announced its Fourth Annual Winter Concert on Friday, December 11 at 8 PM, at St. Paul's Church. The program will feature actor/playwright and drag legend Charles Busch in Aaron Dai's holiday favorite, the Night Before Christmas, following a tradition of celebrated guest narrators: Ana Gasteyer, David Hyde Pierce and Richard Kind. New York Times lauded flautist Jesse Schiffman will perform Mozart's First Flute Concerto and the program will be rounded out with the overture to the Marriage of Figaro and the Nutcracker Suite. The concert will be performed without intermission and will feature four conductors rotating from positions within the orchestra to the podium and back: Music Director Miguel Campos Neto, Ankush Kumar Bahl, Kyunghun Kim and Mark Seto.
The Chelsea Symphony, hailed as "a daring orchestral experiment" by Chelsea Now, and described as "vibrant" by the New York Times, continues to defy categorization. In addition to performing a regular classical series at its home base in Chelsea, this versatile young orchestra recently presented critically acclaimed concerts at Bargemusic in Brooklyn and collaborated with legendary Wicked composer and Academy Award recipient Stephen Schwartz. Other performances have included special concerts with American Idol star Clay Aiken, violinist Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, singer Lillias White and fashion designer Malan Breton.
The Chelsea Symphony is a non-profit, self-governing group of gifted musicians dedicated to producing performances of the highest quality and showcasing fellow orchestra members as conductors, soloists and composers. The Chelsea Symphony aims to be a cultural focus for Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood and to present vibrant concerts of inspiring symphonic music both old and new.
The remainder of the Chelsea Symphony's regular 2009-10 season is scheduled as follows: Romeo and Juliet on Valentine's Day on February 13 at 8pm and February 14 at 3pm; Love, the Magician on March 27 at 8pm and March 28 at 3pm; A Midsummer Night's Dream on June 5 at 8pm and June 6 at 3pm
The concert will take place at St. Paul's Church at 315 West 22nd St. Tickets to the event are free, with a suggested donation of $20.
Charles Busch is the author and star of such plays as The Lady in Question, Red Scare on Sunset and Vampire Lesbians of Sodom, which ran five years and is one of the longest running plays in Off-Broadway history. The Tale of the Allergist's Wife ran for 777 performances on Broadway and won Mr. Busch the Outer Circle Critics John Gassner Award and received a Tony nomination for Best Play. In 2003, Mr. Busch received a special Drama Desk Award for career achievement as both performer and playwright. Mr. Busch made his directorial debut with the film A Very Serious Person, which premiered at the 2006 Tribeca Film Festival, where it won an honorable mention. He is also the subject of the documentary film The Lady in Question is Charles Busch. His latest play The Third Story was produced in 2009 by MCC at the Lortel Theatre.

Issue: February 2004
Prune and Train Fruit Trees to Increase Productivity
For productive fruit trees, pruning and training is almost as important as fertilizer and water. Winter is the time to start, because pruning is best done when trees are dormant.
Proper pruning and training will build a strong limb structure that can support a heavy crop and allow good light penetration for best fruit color and sugar content.
Pruning helps shape a tree. Without it, fruit trees become overgrown and unsightly. Fruit will be smaller and of poorer quality, and disease and insect problems will increase due to poor air circulation, poor light penetration and uneven pesticide applications. Poorly developed limbs can't support heavy crops, resulting in broken limbs.
Before pruning, select the proper tools. Choose a sturdy ladder that will remain stable on uneven ground. Use a folding saw, since it's easy to carry and efficient for cutting small and medium-sized limbs. Long-handled lopping shears can handle small diameter branches. Hand sheers are good for twigs.
Make sure all cut surfaces on the tree are smooth and clean to promote even healing of the wound. Don't cut too close to the trunk, because it can damage the tree and undercut bud growth. Also avoid cutting too far away, because it leaves stubs that can be difficult to heal. Most pruning cuts in New Mexico do not need to be painted with pruning ointments since the climate is so dry.
Begin training trees at planting. Most nursery stock have limited root systems. Cutting a third of the top growth back will help balance top growth with root growth, resulting in less stress. Cut most unbranched nursery trees to about two feet above the soil line. Leave only two or three well-spaced limbs on branched stock. Cut the branches back to 4 to 6 inches from the tree.
The most common training system for fruit trees is the multiple leader shape, which allows good light penetration. Remove excess shoots as the tree develops, leaving only three to four well-spaced limbs that grow outward at the crown and act as scaffold branches for further growth. Wide crotch angles where the limbs join the trunk will encourage stronger limbs.
As the tree matures, encourage outward growth to promote good light penetration. Remove limbs that cross over other limbs or rub on each other. Leave limbs that best complement the symmetry of the tree. Refrain from heavy pruning that may encourage water sprouts or suckers during the summer. These long shoots will appear on the trunk or major limbs and are unproductive. Remove them the following spring.
Other major training systems for fruit trees include the central leader and modified leader forms. The central leader system has a central trunk that rises up through the tree with limbs that radiate out from the trunk. The modified leader is allowed to rise higher than a multiple leader system, but is cut back eventually with several leaders rising from the top.back to top
