Pro Life Billboard Challenges Church Pastors
There have been a number of pro-life billboards pop up in Knoxville over the past couple of months. This is my favorite. It's at the junction of I-40 and I-640 (west end), visible from eastbound I-40.
It is clear to us at CBR that the church has ample resources to stop abortion. Yet you'd be hardpressed to find more than one or two churches in Knoxville that initiate any pro-life activity.
Every year, "pro-life" churches in the Knoxville area spend multiple millions of dollars to improve the production value of our music on Sunday morning. These same churches spend only a few thousand dollars to stop abortion, barely enough to salve the conscience. We spend thousands of paid staff hours organizing hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours on elaborate music programming, but we spend almost zero staff hours organizing almost nothing to stop the killing.
I've searched the scriptures diligently, and I find no instance where God chastened His people because their music wasn't good enough. Yet God judged His own chosen people (Israel) because they were killing their own children:
[Because the inhabitants of Jerusalem have worshiped false Gods and burned their children in the fire as offerings to Baal] … I will make them fall by the sword before their enemies … and I will give their carcasses as food to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth. … I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters [in the siege]. (Jeremiah 19: 4-9)
Even as 1 in 5 women who aborts her pregnancy identifies herself as an "evangelical" or "born-again" Christian (which means 1 in 5 men are also aborting their children), the church does little or nothing to stop the killing, even among their own members. If you want to stop the killing in your own church, check this out. Or this.

This is one of two ballet class music CDs by Gill Civil. Keep an eye out for the other review, coming up soon.
"Dancing Keys" has 28 tracks–all original works that were played and composed by Civil. I really do love the original ballet class music CDs. I think it adds another level of artistry to the class environment to use compositions that were created with this particular dance form in mind. Adapted pieces are fine–and many people like them. I just prefer original work.
I believe this would be a perfect CD for an adult ballet class or beginner/intermediate class. The music is clear and metered, and the selection is good. The reason I wouldn't use it for an advanced ballet class is because the barre is on the short side. Other than that, it is appropriate. Tracks are of adequate length–neither too short, nor too long.
The centre music is plentiful, with tracks that include sautes, allegro, waltz, gavotte and adage. I found the music inspiring and beautiful. I think it is such a challenge to come up with tracks that have heart in them, and Civil is able to do so. She has quite a background in the field, having played for schools and companies in New Zealand, Canada and Australia–she's no newbie to this type of music and it shows.
If you would like to hear samples of the music on "Dancing Keys" or if you want to purchase a CD to use for teaching, visit her website.

Greg Harmon Tribute
February 19, 2010 | By Doug Boydston
At our January '09 meeting of the ASME A18.1 main committee we had the privilege of honoring Greg Harmon. Greg sold his company, National Wheel-O-Vator and retired from the industry to pursue his hobby farming, full time.
Greg began his code work back in 1986 as a member of the ASME A17.1 Part XX,XXI sub-committee. He worked with others such as Don Boydston, Marie McDonald, Dave Balmer and Ted Cheney to develop the safety standards that govern vertical and inclined platform lifts and stairway chair lifts.
He lead the effort to establish a separate standard for this product group independent from the rest of the elevator products covered by A17.1. A new main committee was formed for the new standard designated A18.1 and Greg chaired that new main committee from 1999 to his retirement in 2008.
Greg lead the committee as he did his company with grace under pressure, high character as well as a humble servant attitude. His leadership was instrumental in creating a great stand alone safety standard. Greg was a great asset to the accessibility industry and will be sorely missed.

Issue Position: Education
Public education is one of our country's most important priorities, and I have been very concerned with the role the federal government has historically played in primary and secondary education. I believe education is best addressed by state and local government, and I have worked to return control and flexibility to those who are closer to the needs of the students being served.

Hereford Cathedral has launched a new appeal as around £1/4 million is needed urgently to restore the roof of the cathedral's north transept.
'We always knew that the roofs would be one of the next great projects,' said the Very Revd Michael Tavinor, Dean of Hereford. 'However, over the past 12 months the lead panels which make up the north transept roof have deteriorated faster than we had expected.'
'The lead has slipped, opening up holes in the roof, which we have been able to temporary repair, and now we have to strip it all off and replace it with new. Unfortunately, during big storms water still gets into the building and at times you can see it staining the vault roof below - it can be very visible from ground level when you stand inside the transept.'
'We have been working on the funding package and have been very fortunate to receive a grant of £100,000 from the Wolfson Foundation and Pilgrim Trust, through the Cathedrals Fabric Commission for England, and a further grant from the Mappa Mundi Trust. We do, however, need the support of the community to raise the final £50,000 and we hope as many as possible will help us!'
An appeal to raise £50,000 has been launched and all are welcome to contribute as much as they are able, although those who are able to give £100 or more will be Patrons of the appeal and can choose to have up to five initials added to a special commemorative plaque. The plaque will be commissioned to mark the work and celebrate those who have contributed to the restoration.
For further information on how to support the appeal, please contact Hereford Cathedral Perpetual Trust (01432 374261: email@example.com) or visit www.herefordcathedral.org.

Grading Goran Dragic's Strengths and Weaknesses with Phoenix Suns so FarJanuary 5, 2013
Goran Dragic was signed to lead a young Phoenix Suns squad after the conclusion of the Steve Nash era.
While the team has floundered, Dragic is having a career year and has proven that he is capable of leading the team.
Dragic's per game averages of 14.5 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 2.9 RPG and 1.6 SPG have been exactly what the Suns needed from him.
However, even with his solid play, Dragic still has his strengths and weaknesses.
Looking at his strengths, it's obvious Dragic relies both offensively and defensively on his quickness. On offense that quickness equates to initiating the fastbreak offense and blowing by defenders.
This is extremely important in a Phoenix offense predicated on fast breaking and trying to get easy scores before the defense is set.
On defense his quickness allows him to effectively guard the ball and gamble on steals. Guarding athletic point guards is not easy, but Dragic has the quickness to stay in front of most guards.
In addition to his quickness, Dragic is also a skilled passer.
That passing is his greatest asset to the Phoenix Suns as Dragic initiates the offense and fills the passing role vacated by Steve Nash.
Dragic has the ability to make all sorts of passes and is averaging 6.5 APG with subpar teammates.
Now, while Dragic has considerable strengths, he also has noticeable weaknesses.
Chief among those weaknesses is his tendency to pass up open shots.
Far too often Dragic overlooks an open shot and forces a pass to his less talented teammates. These plays lead to turnovers or low quality shots. Dragic does his team a disservice by passing up open shots.
Another one of Dragic's weaknesses is his lackluster free-throw shooting, and it's not like he's a bad shooter, so his 70.5 percent clip from the line is baffling.
Just last season he shot 80.5 percent from the free-throw line, which is proof he can hit free throws.
To me, it seems like this is a concentration problem because his form looks consistent. Really the only way to fix this is to keep practicing the same routine throughout practice.
So far this season, Goran Dragic has shown he has noticeable weaknesses and strengths.
It has not been an easy season for Suns fans but one thing is for certain—the team has found its point guard to build around.

A few months ago, you may recall this tiny fiasco at Starbucks, when I was unceremoniously booted from the premises on the one day I had not purchased a Starbucks product. (Not a stand-alone store, I reiterate, but a kiosk in the public lobby of a building not owned by Starbucks). My post must have been seen by someone at Starbucks, because I received a few free drink coupons and several profuse apologies for the way I was treated soon thereafter. I was also contacted by the Regional Manager who asked for details on the visit, which I gladly provided.
A genuine apology goes a long way with me, and I'd forgiven Starbucks for the foible, but I stayed away from their stores all summer because the friendly nature the company has always gone out of its way to cultivate had been dispelled – most likely by an isolated downtown Albany employee, but dispelled nonetheless. I held onto the drink certificates until this week, when I ventured into the same Starbucks.
On my first trip back, there were two new baristas working. I ordered an expensive salted caramel mocha (hey, I'm not going to waste a coupon on a plain coffee) and sat down right near where I had been asked to leave a few months earlier. I finished my drink and left, unbothered.
The next day I returned, and the employee who had been next to me when I was told to leave took my order. She called me by name (I hadn't thought she'd known my name) and apologized for what had happened last time. I thanked her for that, and said it was fine. (Usually when I say something is fine, it is decidedly anything but fine, but this time I meant it.)
Forgiveness doesn't come easy for me, but over the last few years I've gotten better at it. This trivial matter may be further proof of that. (And proof of the power of the written word. Don't ever be silent if you're treated unfairly. Yes, a sizable social media presence can help, but even without that you can write to company executives, regional managers, and everyone all the way up to the CEO. That's the beauty of living in this country. Make the most of it.)
As for Starbucks, it's always been an admirable company and has consistently done good things with its money and power. The fact that several people reached out to me to discuss what happened and worked to rectify it are indicative that the company does in fact care. Because of that, I feel good about patronizing their business again. (A gift card and the return of holiday drink offerings helps too.)Back to Blog

Wagner and Philosophy
By Bryan Magee
Illustrated. 398 pages. Metropolitan Books/ Henry Holt & Company. $35.
Bryan Magee is an English philosophy professor, critic, politician and television personality. He has written several books on philosophy. He is also a Wagnerian, a passionate and informed one. In ''The Tristan Chord,'' he extends the themes of his much admired short book ''Aspects of Wagner'' from 33 years ago into what amounts to an intellectual biography of this most multifaceted of composers.
His book sometimes rambles and doubles back on itself. And yet this is an enlightening and exciting exploration of a great artist and cultural icon. Mr. Magee is by no means uncritical, yet his thoroughgoing admiration of Wagner and his works will lead some to discount this book reflexively as an apology, especially in the thoughtful final chapter on Wagner's undeniable anti-Semitism.
But it is no such thing. Those who disdain Wagner, often out of a confident ignorance of his art and his actual beliefs, will miss much. For those who love Wagner, ''The Tristan Chord'' is quite simply indispensable.
The subtitle (the title of the original British edition) is the more accurate indication of its contents. The American title is evocative but falsely implies a concentration on the opera ''Tristan und Isolde'' or its unresolving, always yearning first chord, perhaps the most famous chord in musical history. The core of this book is Mr. Magee's effort to trace in some detail Wagner's shifting philosophical convictions. This is by no means as marginal as it might sound, since of all the great composers, the autodidact Wagner was the most fiercely intellectual, reading and even writing many books in which he poured out his beliefs on all matters.Continue reading the main story
It is Mr. Magee's contention, and most persuasively argued it is, that underlying all those convictions was his devotion to the varying strands of classic German philosophy, from Hegel's vision of an ever-changing, ever-self-transforming historical process to Ludwig Feuerbach's stern belief in social justice and scorn for religion, then on to Schopenhauer and back through him to Kant and their Platonic ideal of an unknowable reality behind our perceptions. Finally, there was the long and complex relationship between Wagner and Nietzsche, the only known instance of a profound friendship between a great composer and a great philosopher, Mr. Magee argues.
Wagner's art is often thought of as a union of words and music. For Mr. Magee, his accomplishment is more than that: ''He brought together, at the point of their highest development, the mainstream tradition of Western music, the mainstream tradition of Western theater and the mainstream tradition of Western philosophy.''
By philosophy, Mr. Magee means what the word usually meant until our positivist, science-obsessed early-mid-20th century. For Mr. Magee and for Wagner, philosophy entailed a humanist, analytic contemplation of life's mysteries. Mr. Magee himself, while a practiced explicator of philosophical ideas, broadens the field to the realm of general intellectual history, with occasional forays forward into psychology. (Freud, after all, owed much to German philosophy and to Schopenhauer in particular.) This is all particularly valuable because Schopenhauer and most of the others have fallen out of fashion, no longer considered necessary reading for an educated person.
In the barest of outlines, Wagner shifted from revolutionary socialism (Feuerbach and the Young Hegelians of the 1830's and 40's), beliefs that shaped the ''Ring'' and his best-known theoretical writings (''Opera as Drama'' and the ideal of the parity of the arts as expressed in the Gesamtkunstwerk, or ''total work of art''), to mystical inwardness, represented by Schopenhauer and the young, Schopenhauer-drunk Nietzsche.
That meant a shift from optimism to pessimism, from a belief that art and social action could make for a better world to a near-Buddhistic despair that life was an unending chain of suffering. It also meant a shift to a conviction, voiced by Schopenhauer and eagerly seized upon by Wagner, that music was the greatest and deepest of the arts, and should naturally claim primacy over the others.
Earlier writers on Wagner have dealt with these issues, but few with the clarity and focus and professional expertise of Mr. Magee. And Mr. Magee goes further: he explores how Wagner's shifting beliefs either shaped or reflected his shifts in compositional practice. Wagner first encountered Schopenhauer in 1854, which led directly to ''Tristan,'' which has widely and rightly been seen as Schopenhauer in sound. But Mr. Magee makes a strong case that ''Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg'' and ''Parsifal'' are equally in Schopenhauer's debt. What the three operas are respectively about, he writes, ''are the three ways in which Schopenhauer thought it possible for us in this life to get a glimmer of contact with whatever it is that is noumenal: through sexual love; through the arts, especially music; and through a compassion-based, self-abnegating mysticism.''
There is much, much more in this book, including gentlemanly but withering dismissals of the philistinism and ignorance of prominent anti-Wagnerians, insights into Wagner's character and times and psychological observations on Nietzsche's personality. All very much worth reading.
As usual, one can grumble. The writing, with its doubling back and repetitions, reflects not only this book's undoubtedly long gestation but also perhaps Wagner's own clotted prose. The text mixes clear-headed and often trenchant explication of sometimes arcane philosophical ideas, pungent writing (''To be disillusioned one needs first to have been illusioned'') with wordy awkwardness (''Schopenhauer argued that it is this that is the . . .'') and amusing Britishisms (''snook-cocking exuberance''; the ''knockabout larkiness'' of Nietzsche's attacks on Wagner). Sometimes Mr. Magee underplays issues that don't quite conform to his theories, as in giving short shrift to ''Die Meistersinger'' (which he deeply admires but which doesn't quite fit into his Schopenhauerian scenario), or slighting the words of ''Tristan'' as he makes his case for its inherent musicality.
After a while, one realizes with a certain apprehension, Mr. Magee has a still bigger book in him, a comprehensive multivolume study of Wagner's intellectual and artistic achievement. Wistfully, Mr. Magee seems to know that too: ''Doing these things,'' he writes at one point, ''would require a different sort of book from this, and one substantially longer.'' His tone is wistful because there is precious little chance he will have the time to climb that mountain.
But the mountain he has climbed here is high enough. ''The Tristan Chord'' should take its place among any Wagnerian's short list of required reading. And however set the convictions of those who abhor Wagner, it would be a valuable book for them, too, to read.Continue reading the main story

7 Manitobans honoured with medals for acts of courage
A Winnipeg man who was shot in the Dominican Republic while protecting visiting Manitoba students from armed intruders is getting a Star of Courage.
Les Lehmann, 67, went after two men with a bat after they broke into an apartment complex he owns in Puerto Plata in January 2014. He was shot 10 times and beaten but survived and carries permanent scars and other injuries from the attack.
Governor General David Johnston will present Lehmann with the Star of Courage on Friday at Rideau Hall in Ottawa. The ceremony will also recognize 42 other acts of bravery.
The Star of Courage "recognizes acts of conspicuous courage in circumstances of great peril," according to a news release from the federal government.
The following is the citation for Lehmann:
On January 31, 2014, Lester Lehmann defended 26 Canadian students from armed intruders in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. Two men were trying to access the hotel rooms where the students were staying. When Mr. Lehmann confronted the assailants, they beat him and left him injured. Undeterred, he grabbed a bat and charged after the men, hitting one of them on the head and knocking him down. The other suspect shot Mr. Lehmann several times before he fled the scene, dragging his unconscious partner with him.
Among those staying at the complex were a dozen students from the Manitoba communities of St. Jean Baptiste and Ste. Anne, many of whom witnessed the violent encounter. They were in the country to help out at a local orphanage, as part of a humanitarian project.
The students and their chaperones, who were unhurt, cut short the trip and returned to Manitoba the next day.
Johnston is also awarding several other Manitobans with the Medal of Bravery, which "recognizes acts of bravery in hazardous circumstances."
The citations are listed below:
- Derron Orlando Brown and Bryan Raymond Henzel (Winnipeg)
On Aug. 5, 2012, Derron Brown and Bryan Henzel rescued three people from a burning recreational vehicle following a head-on collision in Winnipeg. The men helped two passengers out through a rear window before entering the smoke-filled cabin to free the injured driver and bring him to safety.
- Audrey Gay Hicks and Della Brynn Shore (Arnes)
On June 1, 2014, lifeguards Audrey Hicks and Brynn Shore rescued two men whose sailboat had capsized into the cold waters of Lake Winnipeg near Arnes, Manitoba. Navigating a canoe through rough waters, the women paddled for half an hour to reach the victims, but the waves caused them to overshoot their position. They finally reached the men and hauled them into the canoe. The two women then fought against the waves that threatened to tip their overloaded boat and successfully reached the shore.
On Oct. 18, 2012, Paul Peters, Danny Prive and Jason Quick rescued a man from a burning truck in Winnipeg. The driver of a pick-up truck had collided with and become trapped between two other vehicles, which had caught fire. To add to the danger, several jerry cans had toppled over and spilled fuel on the ground. Despite the risk involved, Peters, Prive and Quick jumped on the hood of the pick-up, pulled off the damaged windshield and helped the driver escape.
Peters and Prive were presented with their medals at a previous ceremony.
- Gordon Paul Kenneth Tourand (Winnipeg)
On Sept. 18, 2014, building manager Gord Tourand put his own safety at risk to evacuate the occupants of a hotel during a devastating fire in Dauphin, Man. After the flames broke out in the early morning hours, Tourand went to every room in order to evacuate the residents, many of whom were elderly. Undeterred by the thick smoke, he then returned inside the dwelling and attempted to put out the flames, before the smoke forced him to retreat.

Bhudd's Damage points are increased by 5 points. (Remember: Damage points are inflicted on your opponent if you win the round)
The Power of the opposing character is reduced by 2 points or up to a minimum of 1.
Richard Vernon: "Are you through?"
John Bender: "Not even close Bhudd!"
That is soo wrong
Is this a Pete Weber tribute? I would have totally loved to be a part of the "Let's combine Buddha with Pete Weber" conversation that undoubtedly took place.
@Stormsniper what , girlie pete ?
- ability makes his damage quite painful giving a total of 7 or 9
- bonus -2 power, min 1
- suprised by how cheap idk why i am
- might get your opponent to waste a few pillz
- a starter could find this card usefull
- power of 4 which doesn't help his bonus
- just not really any help for a All Stars
- SOA will make him a useless hitter
- SOB will almost take away his small chance on winning
Overall: He's judged fairly but he's not going to help against experienced competitors.
Rating: 5/10
*because he's a great hitter but lacks power
Only with Ambre is he a threat
~Eloxia Reviews~
Bhudd 4/3 Ability: +4 damage.
Big balls bhudd..
♥-He has big balls.
♥-7 damage on a 3 star is amazing!
&heartsower of 4 sucks.
♥-3 damage when hit by SOA which sucks.
♥-So many better 3 stars in this clan.
Overall I give him a 4.5/10. The only way this is a good card, is if you have Eyrik or Ambre.
Bhudd could possibly be a bowling version of Bhudda. (deu to name and Lvl 3 artwork)
I wonder who might possibly have better balls: Bhudd or Quinn? If you think that Big Balls Bhudd is messed up, look at Quinn!
he sounds like a rapist
Funny Bio.
Funniest in my opinion.
hey thats my nickname too !!!!
hmm... bottom line just don't use this card
size of balls doesn't matter bhudd, oh yeah it does dude
FAT BHUDDS all day everyday
Clint City, day.

Number of Internet users has grown significantly over the last few years. Due to this fact, such phenomenon as E-commerce has started to rapidly develop and these days it became possible to purchase almost everything online without even leaving one's home. Nowadays, e-commerce is spreading rapidly and plays a crucial role in global economy. Professional Dissertation Writers think that e-commerce would make for a great dissertation topic and decided to share some information on global trends in e-commerce.
Professional Dissertation Writers Provide Information On E-Commerce
Prior to talking any further, Professional Dissertation Writers think that it is imperative to find out what exactly e-commerce is. In basic terms, it is the process of selling and buying goods and services over the internet and to do this a seller needs to have a personal web site or do it on online auction sites. One of the greatest things about e-commerce is the ability to reach to a lot wider audience rather than selling products and services in a local store. Besides that, it is a great opportunity for potential buyers to find exactly what they are looking for and get it delivered to their doorstep for less as compared to what they would have to pay at a local store. Globalization and e-commerce are synonyms these days, so some of the latest trends here are pointed towards making online goods and services available to a wider number of individuals through social networks, internet advertising, etc.
Professional Dissertation Writers Think That E-Commerce Is A Great Dissertation Topic
According to Professional Dissertation Writers, e-commerce is a very interesting topic for a dissertation, because it offers many great new possibilities and has not been fully explored yet, thus if you will dig a little deeper, you will encounter many great and very interesting issues that deserve attention and can lead to some novel discoveries.

text: Impaired Innate Immune Function Associated with Fecal Supernatant from Crohn's Disease Patients: Insights into Potential Pathogenic Role of the MicrobiomeMeelu, Parool PhD*; Marin, Romela BS*; Clish, Clary PhD†; Zella, Garret MD‡; Cox, Stephen PhD§; Yajnik, Vijay MD*; Nguyen, Deanna D. MD*; Korzenik, Joshua R. MD‖Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: July 2014 - Volume 20 - Issue 7 - p 1139–1146 doi: 10.1097/MIB.0000000000000081 Original Basic Science Articles Abstract In Brief Author Information Background: Although a dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiome plays a role in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD), the functional implication is unclear. We sought to determine the influence of fecal supernatant from patients with CD on innate immune function in neutrophil, macrophage, and epithelial cells. Metabolomic analysis was subsequently performed in an attempt to identify potential compounds responsible for the effects identified. Methods: In the fecal samples from 11 pediatric patients with CD and 10 healthy controls, 16S ribosomal and metabolomic analyses were performed. We evaluated the effect of preincubation with fecal supernatant on neutrophil, macrophage, epithelial cell survival, superoxide production, bacterial invasion, and/or bactericidal function using gentamicin protection assay. Ten substances identified as most elevated in CD compared with control samples by metabolomic analysis were similarly tested for effect on bactericidal function. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in microbial membership in fecal samples from patients with CD compared with healthy controls. However, bactericidal function was impaired in neutrophils and monocytes preincubated with supernatant from fecal samples from patients with CD. Although levels of many metabolites were noted to be altered in samples from patients with CD, the combination of the 10 most elevated compounds failed to demonstrate any effect on neutrophil bactericidal capacity. Conclusions: Fecal supernatant from patients with CD impairs intracellular bactericidal activity in neutrophils and macrophages. The functional consequences of the intestinal microbiome and its associated secreted products on innate immune function may be more critical than microbial membership in understanding the pathophysiology of CD.

For those who may not be familiar, Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF) is the largest and oldest U.S. charity funding research on ovarian cancer, the 5th leading cause of cancer death in American women. To raise awareness and funds for research, OCRF hosts an annual event called Super Saturday, a shopping event that brings together top luxury name brands in fashion and beauty, special shopping incentives and activities with a percentage of sales from participating retailers and dining establishments benefiting the OCRF.
Now in its 18th year, with annual events held in NY and LA, this is Super Saturday's first ever weekend-long event in Las Vegas! Hosted by renowned designer, stylist and author Rachel Zoe, brought her beautiful family to support the cause close to her heart. Rachel held a book signing of her latest book, "Living in Style" and then walked the Fashion Show runway with her husband and business partner, Rodger Berman and their two trendy tots. We were then treated to fall fashions courtesy of Saks Fifth Avenue and express beauty services by The Glam App.

I received this driver new several years ago, and have played with it on courses all over the country. I love this driver and the only way I would trade it was for another titleist. From impact to ball flight I love this club
I'm still the first member of our foursome hitting our approach shots but now its from the fairway!
This is a classic taste club.since i started using this club, my shots are consistant and straight. I love the impack sound and after feeling.Definaltely worth the money. I bought value condition club , but it was almost new with very few scracth mark in the bottom. The club was came regripped with golf pride grip. Shaft is in fantastic condition
I bought this driver a couple of months ago. I needed an upgrade over the driver I had in my bad. This club certainly makes a difference. Not only am I hitting the ball farther but also straighter as well. My golf game has drastically improved
I bought this driver used and it was in great condition. I've been able to drive as good or better as people with new expensive drivers. Definitely a great price.

Canadian hard rockers FAMOUS UNDERGROUND – the new project of Nick Walsh, formerly frontman of SLIK TOXIK, together with his long-time bassist/musical partner Laurie-Anne Green at his side – recently inked a world-wide two album deal with German label Dust On The Tracks Records (DOTT).
The group's self-titled debut album, which is slated for release on June 7th, will be released through Sony (Europe), MVD (USA), RSK (UK) and Universal (Canada).
1. Wasteland
2. Overdrive
3. Dead Weight
4. Love Stands Still
5. Forever And A Day
6. Necropolis
7. Wheel Of Misfortune
8. Mommy Is A Junkie
9. On Broken Wings
10. Bullet Train
11. Hell To Pay
Bonus tracks:
12. Dead Weight (raw and unplugged)
13. On Broken Wings (alternative)
The CD comes in a digi including an eight-page-booklet.
Frontman Nicholas Walsh recently checked in with the following update: "Just letting you all know that we've been prepping for our official debut release. We have done a photo shoot with renowned photographer Darko and have been finishing up the artwork as well as the mixes on our bonus tracks. Though we have been in the studio tracking some 'new, new' songs, those will only see the light of day for our upcoming live performances, and will not be a part of our debut release. They will be reserved for F.U. #2. Thanks goes out to all of our Canadian fans for all of your support since the beginning. It's time to share your homeboys and girl with the rest of the world."
The Famous Underground line-up is:
Nicholas Walsh – vocals/guitars
Laurie-Anne Green – bass/vocals
Rick Corvese – guitars
Darren Boyd – guitars
Desche Sparboom – drums
According to a press release, Famous Underground's sound and music is edgy, melodic and hooky bringing a paradigm shift to the arena of rock. It's been said, that they have created something fresh and exciting in an otherwise stagnated genre. With the conclusion that no-one has definitive comparisons, Carl Begai writer with elite hard rock/metal magazine BW&BK describes the new recording as "it's a darker if-METALLICA-were-GUNS N' ROSES direction with this brand new album."
Famous Underground's self-titled studio release produced by Nick Walsh, and mixed by Darius Szczepaniak (THE BLACK CROWES, SACRIFICE) at Rouge Valley Studio in Toronto. The new recording takes Walsh's writing to a more defined state where the lyrics delve more into the complexities of the real world.
These musicians have independently garnered critical acclaim supporting such acts as MÖTLEY CRÜE, DEF LEPPARD, KID ROCK, BLACK SABBATH, BILLY TALENT, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, APRIL WINE and many other international acts.

NICK WALSH HAS BEEN A HERO OF MINE SINCE THE FIRST TIME I PICKED UP S.T.'S EP "SMOOTH & DEADLY" BACK IN 94 or 95 when I was in highschool at 14 or 15 yrs old, And forging my way as a lead singer & frontman…did I mention I was 15?!?…This was an amazing era for the Fans of Rock N' Roll…because There was not only MTV's HeadBangers Ball, but There was "METAL EDGE Magazine!!! Who waHUGE s a contributor on getting the word out on "THE" UP-AND-COMING BANDS that had THE 2 THINGS THAT ANY BAND AT THE END OF THE 90'S NEEDED TO MAKE ANY KIND OF SPLASH, & WOULD GET the WORD OF MOUTH OUT THAT WAS NECCESARY/IMPERATIVE TO EVEN GET A CHANCE – *LOOK FUCKIN' GREAT & HAVE SUPER CATCHY KICK ASS SONGS THAT SOUND KILLER!! So at that time- there were two worlds in Rock N' Roll …The Supergroups that toured arenas…(eg SKIDS, GNR, * MOTLEY, Poison, Warrant…) And the bands I loved the most were bands like Slik Toxik Spread Eagle, Dangerous Toys, Faster Pussycat..Shotgun Messiah, & D-A-D,.and other bands like …I even had a record store in Mesa, Az. put my name on a really cool promo 2 sided padded piece of poster board which was just 2 Promotional Posters for "Doin' The Nasty" – But to me it was The coolest thing!! And when I took it home, I hung it in the center of my room hung by a piece of fishing line… Bands like that instilled something in me… The message of Rock N' Roll..it happen to choose me to pass the same message on…& now at 36 yrs old Ive toured the world..I live in HOLLYWOOD, CA. – And Am "The Bastard Son Of The Sunset Strip"!! Thank you Nick!! I love you and am stoked to hear what you have next in store for the world…We're listening!!!

Using Ultimate Google Analytics on sixhours theme
Trying to get the Ultimate Google Analytics plugin to work with sixhours theme and have opened my google account first and then installed the plugin second – the right order I am told! However, when Google Analytics checks my website it says 'Tracking Not Installed'. Google Analytics does give a code to paste onto every page immediately before the closing <head> tag but I would have thought the plugin did this for me! Any ideas anyone – note that I am new to this and HTML/code work is a mystery to me!

Xanthippe was an ancient Athenian. Her name means 'blonde horse.' She was Socrates' wife, and is believed to have been much younger than him, perhaps by as much as forty years. She was a devoted wife and mother with Socrates to three sons. Xenophon's Symposium has Socrates agree that she is "the hardest to get along with of all the women there are," and that he chose her precisely for her argumentative spirit:
Socrates explains that the man who says "None of your soft-mouthed, docile animals for me, the horse for me to own must show some spirit" understands that if he can manage such an animal, it will be easy enough to deal with every other horse besides. Socrates endorses this view: "I wish to deal with human beings, to associate with man in general; hence my choice of wife. I know full well, if I can tolerate her spirit, I can with ease attach myself to every human being else."

The little boy died, all what they had been vividly however was the sadness of Jose Antonio, the little boy's father.
When the trailer's door were opened the immigrants jumped to from the trailer on their own way, some of them were dying and other 17 including the little boy and his dad already pass away.
No one of the survivors would forget what they lived through the 4 hours inside the trailer.
Williams was charged with transporting undocumented immigrants and fleeing the scene of a crime.
Karla Patricia Chavez was arrested after she fled the United States, entered Honduras, and then attempted to travel to Guatemala. She is the principal guilty person on the tragedy of the 19 immigrants in Victoria, Texas in May 2003.


text: I was in Manhattan today visiting a client and had some extra time, so I stopped by Macy's and they had a large blue suede Carly! I must have looked so confused to the SAs because I would look at and hold it, walk away, and then walk back looking at it more. I must have done that 3 times. I didn't know the Carly came in suede...blue suede at that! It looked a little odd though because the leather straps were white, but they had a blue tinge to it. BTW, they also had 1 signature stripe tote in punch and a light blue. Was very tempted to buy the light blue tote.

Composed of lightbulbs lined up in rows, the artwork was created for LG Electronics who wished to demonstrate the exceptional energy efficiency of its Centum System™ refrigerator. The completed image depicting Pollux, a new LG energy efficient refrigerator, surrounded by colourful fruits and vegetables, was executed in a 48-hour process that involved adding color filters to each individual bulb. This massive undertaking was accomplished in Kimpo City (South Korea) in collaboration with the media artist group Everyware.
Illuminating the image for one hour required 198.8 kWh of electricity, equivalent to what an energy efficiency-rated Centum System™ refrigerator can save in a year. This is approximately the same amount of electricity required to power a vacuum cleaner five and a half hours per day for one year or to run a hair dryer approximately 30 minutes every day for nearly 18 years.
A total of 18,072 individual fluorescent bulbs were used to create a 12 meter by 9.6 meter image of gargantuan proportions. With this artwork, LG and its collaborators (Belo, Everyware) has earned the Guinness World Records title for the largest image created using only lightbulbs. The finished work of art shattered the previous record of 11,022 bulbs, set in 2014.

Samsung Testing Underway
The smartphone giant and the top most company Samsung is testing newest Android version 7.0 Nougat on Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. Samsung has appointed team of testers and developers for Galaxy Beta program. So Samsung is Testing Nougat on Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge.
Nougat is Bug Free?
Sources reported that Samsung was already working in the previous year on Nougat-based firmware XXS5DPK7. None of the software on planet is 100 bug free although Google has tested itself but real time situation on new hardware of Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge might change this concept. Consequently sales of smartphone giant might go down, so it is risky to release without testing in each aspect.
The new features of Nougat need to be tested on new hardware. The new features of Nougat are as follows:
- Bundled Notifications
- Improved Battery Optimization
- Improved Performance
- Multi-window option
- Night Mode for Reading and many others
Don't Miss: Security Issues with Internet of Things
Older Versions Smartphones
On the moment, Samsung might be selling its smartphones equipped with older version operating system at cheaper price in package deal. While the manufacturer department will handle newest version of Nougat from onward.
There are chances that Samsung will customized User Interface of Nougat to meet the needs of its smartphones for apps, blue light filter, etc. So it is suggested to look into the matter very deeply to test the device before releasing. Once spoken word can't rollback.

Nick Cannon's child custody rap left Mariah Carey confused
Mariah Carey may be poppin' bubbles since Nick Cannon agreed to sign their divorce papers, but she's not sure why he griped about access to their kids in his new song.
That's the latest from TMZ, which reports Mimi doesn't understand some aspects of what Nick has to say in "Divorce Papers," the track he released on SoundCloud and social media last week.
In the tune, he raps, "And now I can't see my kids 'cause the government sucks," and "It's f------ up that the time you spend with your own kids is called visitation."
But sources tell TMZ Mariah's never tried to keep him from seeing their twins, Monroe and Moroccan, who have spent time with their dad regularly since he and Mariah split.
"Divorce Papers" also addresses the fact that Nick hasn't signed off on legally ending his marriage yet, despite having filed for divorce in back in 2014.
"It's been two years and I'm the one that's been waiting," he says in the song.
The line, "Man, f--- it. Let's sign the papers," suggests he's ready to go through with it finally.
Mariah, who's currently engaged to billionaire James Packer, had been married to Nick for six years when they moved to end things.
As for their decision to continue co-parenting their kids, Nick told Ellen DeGeneres at the end of last year that love is the bottom line in their family.
"It's all about unconditional love," he explained at the time. "And knowing because they were so young, this is what they know: They know mommy and daddy still love each other, but more importantly they love us."

In order to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the first Godfather film, USAoplogy has combined licenses from Hasbro and Paramount to create a new Godfather-inspired version of Monopoly which includes properties such as the Corleone Long Island Home, the Corleone Lake Tahoe Estate, Woltz International Pictures, Moe Green's Casino, Joe's Diner and Hyman Roth's Home.
The four railroads were switched out for a fishing boat, a getaway car, a delivery truck and a passenger train. The Chance and Community Chest cards were renamed Friends and Enemies cards to remind folks to "keep your friends close, but your enemies closer," according to a statement from the company. "Don" cards have been added to help players align with a family from the movie to garner an advantage in the game.
The familiar tokens have also received a makeover, and now consist of a gun, a cannoli, a Genco olive oil tin, the Don's limousine, a dead fish and a horse's head. We are super stoked on this release!

An IND application includes a protocol for the clinical use of the unlicensed drug and must be submitted for review to FDA and permitted to proceed before any agents are released under IND status. CDC maintains protocols with IND status for some drugs to ensure that they are available in the United States when needed.
The following anti-parasitic drugs can be obtained from CDC's Drug Service (CDC Drug Service, Scientific Resources Program, telephone 404.639.3670):
- Artesunate
- Benznidazole
- Diethylcarbamazine (DEC)
- Melarsopro
- Nifurtimox
- Sodium Stibogluconate (Pentostam)
- Suramin

Hera, why could you not live up to your namesake?I was really excited when I got my Hera by Cal Exotics and was quite impressed by the packaging she came in. But she came with weird residue on her and a weird smell that stayed on after being washed. Then I felt her squishy tip and knew she wouldn't press against my G-spot hard enough. I turned her on to check out her LOUD, buzzy vibrations and knew this toy would never win my heart.
Good beginner toy, works well as a teasing toy.
Chemical smell, tip is too squishy, could be thicker, buzzy vibrations.
Hera is my first Cal Exotics vibrator. It is a nice shade of lavender, has an easy one-push button, and has multiple uses. Hera's intended use is G-spot stimulation, but she can also be used for clitoral or anal stimulation (though she is made of TPR, so use a condom if you're going to want her for G-spot stimulation as well). The tip of Hera is curved for G-spot stimulation, but it is squishy, which is not something I like for G-spot stimulation. Her vibrations are buzzy and not the rumbly, deep vibrations that many like. I've found that since the vibrations are so buzzy, it works well to use Hera through clothing as a tease/buildup. Hera is small enough to use with a partner but also works for solo play. Hera is waterproof; use her wherever you desire. She is small and discreet enough for travel.
Material / Texture
When I first looked at Hera in her packaging, I was concerned. It looked like there were black spots or, like, cardboard dusting on the outside of the toy. (You know when you first open a puzzle and there's, like, puzzle dust in the box? It was like that.) After taking Hera out of her packaging, I smelled an overwhelmingly chemical smell. I washed her with antibacterial, scented soap, and it still didn't remove the smell. I was really turned off that the toy still smelled after being washed.
There's a slight, rippled texture to the outside. It's not something I can feel while it's inside. It is definitely something most people could handle and is a great toy for beginners since it's not overly textured.

Design / Shape / Size
I can't say I'm a fan of the design. The tip is too squishy to do much for my G-spot. It does work okay for pinpointing vibrations, but they're buzzy vibrations, which don't do much for me.
Insertable length: 5 1/4"
Circumference: 3 1/4"
Diameter: 1"
This toy isn't very big to me, girth-wise. I like toys that are a little larger, so I wish it were a little bit thicker. But since it is compact, it's great for beginners, easy to hide, and great for travel.

Functions / Performance / Controls
The vibrator has a very easy-to-push button located at the bottom; it has five functions. The first function cycles through all the functions for two to three seconds, the second function is long pulses, the third is medium pulses, the fourth is short pulses, and the fifth function is straight vibration. Push the button a sixth time, and the vibrator turns off. I'm not really into pulsing, so I like the straight vibrations the most. The vibrations seem to be more in the tip of the vibrator but can be felt throughout the toy. The vibrations are buzzy, not rumbly, and the toy is really loud—louder than any other vibrator I currently have. It seems to hold up pretty well in water, but I've only used it once in the shower, so I'll have to provide some updates on that in my follow up!
Care and Maintenance
Hera is made out of TPR, which is more porous than silicone and cannot be disinfected. If you're going to use this between partners or orifices, use a condom! TPR cannot be boiled to sterilize it, but soap and water should work just fine. Don't store it with other TPR or silicone toys, because they may want to be really good friends (and by really good friends, I mean melt into each other). I recommend using water-based lube, but if you're a die-hard silicone-lube fan, do a patch test and make sure it won't ruin your new friend. Store in a dark, cool place where it is not touching other TPR or silicone toys.
Follow-up commentary 10 months after original review
I'm pretty sure I got rid of this, in comparison to my other vibrators it just wasn't going to make the cut.
This product was provided free of charge to the reviewer. This review is in compliance with the FTC guidelines.
Thanks for the review.
What kind of batteries does Hera take? Was the compartment easy to work?
Ick, I'd be bugged by that weird chemical-type coating on this toy... Sorry this didn't work out so well for you!
Two AAA, really easy to work the compartment. Buuut, you know how in some toys they feel the need to shove things inside the compartment to tell you how to put batteries in? That was shoved in there pretty good, had to use a tweezers to get it out, fingers were too big, toy was too small.
Darn :/ I was actually looking forward to trying this toy out! I don't think I'm interested in it anymore, but thanks for the great review!
Awesome review job! You done very well with getting straight to the point while still including all the details. Loved it! I have this same one & have serious problems out of it. It's just so poorly made & extremely loud and for some reason it refuses to do anything but frustrate me. Well, that's always my luck with cal exotics though. Anyways, loved the review!

Some books are so powerful that they can actually change the world, in one way or another. Here's a list of 10 of the best world-changers…
1984 by George Orwell
Because now we know that Big Brother is always watching, 2+2=5, and there is only one person we can ever truly love (read We by Yevgeny Zamyatin for Orwell's inspiration).
Don Quijote by Miguel de Cervantes
Because true adventure in novel form owes it all to Cervantes. We all wish we could be a little more like Quijote, especially around windmills.
The Odyssey/The Iliad by Homer
Because they're so gosh darned epic. These books and Gilgamesh inspire many, many young folks to dig into old school, epic poetics.
The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
Because it analyzed class struggle and continues to inspire the discourse on how problematic capitalism tends to be.
Everything and anything by William Shakespeare
Because the theater owes a great deal to the language, poetics, and epic stories of this particular bard (I especially like Hamlet and Othello).
On the Origin of Species by Charles Darwin
Because common understanding of evolution owes many thanks to this dude who studied little island birds.
Tao Te Ching by Lao Tsu
Because it's sweepingly gorgeous and inspired other paths to immerse themselves in the power of nothingness.
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
Because all the trials and tribulations of being a teenager do, in fact, fit inside one slim volume. Not my favorite novel by any means, but incredibly important and brutal. We all wonder where the ducks are now.
The Bible/The Torah/The Qur'an
Because each of them has a crazy powerful hold over the consciousness of massive sections of society and possess some epic tales.
And the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling
Because it made an entire generation want to read again and profoundly augmented the imaginations of every person reading it. J.K. Rowling, we thank you, but ask you to stop writing novels for adults.

I've been a big fan of Summize, since this Twitter search engine launched a few months ago. Whenever I've wanted to get an accurate snapshot of the conversation on the Twitter microblogging service about a brand, company or person I've used Summize.
Twitter has now announced that is has acquired Summize in what will transpire to be a mainly stock-based deal, and the Ney York-based Summize team of five will take up roles at Twitter in San Francisco shortly.
Twitter plans to merge the Summize service and API with their own and integrate it under the Twitter brand. It will be interesting to see if this enhances the Twitter experience or detracts from the Summize search function — I'm hoping it's an improvement all round.

text: Marg and I can so relate to this one of Lynne's cartoons. Our place in the bush is near a lagoon that breeds swarms of very large and very thirsty mosquitoes. We often joke, but not too seriously, that one landed at Sydney Airport (only a few kilometres by air away) and 2 tonnes of jet fuel was pumped in before they realised the mistake. The sound effects that were generated in the wee small hours by difficult child 1 he went on his hunting expeditions sounded in those hours like a S.W.A.T. raid - with the emphasis on swat! We had long arguments also because he wanted to leave the splattered remains of his 'conquests' on the walls and ceiling to "serve as a warning to those that follow". We could never convince him that this would not, could not work with mozzies. Marg's Man
