Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah (x3)
Verse 1:
Does she walk?
Does she talk?
Does she come complete?
My only homeroom angel
always pulled me from my seat
She was pure like snowflakes, no one could ever stain
The memory of my angel could never cause me pain
Years go by, I'm looking through a girlie magazine
And there's my homeroom angel
on the pages in between
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
My angel is the centerfold
Angel is the centerfold
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold
Angel is the centerfold
Nah nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah (x3)
Verse 2:
Slipped me notes, under the desk
While I was thinking about her dress
I was shy, I turned away, before she caught my eye
I was shakin' in my shoes
whenever she flashed those baby blues
Something had a hold on me
when angel passed close by
Those soft fuzzy sweaters, too magical to touch
To see her in that negligee is really just too much
My angel is the centerfold

Pena's rare homer gives Braves seventh straight win
WASHINGTON -- Staring at the possibility of opening their season series against the Nationals with a deflating loss, the Braves proved resilient and began the season series against their National League East rivals in fitting fashion with a thrilling victory.
After encountering a four-run deficit through the first two innings at Nationals Park on Friday night, the Braves scored two runs with two outs in the ninth inning and claimed a 6-4 win over the Nationals after Ramiro Pena's two-out, two-run home run in the 10th inning.View Full Game Coverage
WASHINGTON -- Staring at the possibility of opening their season series against the Nationals with a deflating loss, the Braves proved resilient and began the season series against their National League East rivals in fitting fashion with a thrilling victory.
After encountering a four-run deficit through the first two innings at Nationals Park on Friday night, the Braves scored two runs with two outs in the ninth inning and claimed a 6-4 win over the Nationals after Ramiro Pena's two-out, two-run home run in the 10th inning.View Full Game Coverage
"We're having fun out there," Braves corner infielder Chris Johnson said. "We know the game is not over until we're back in the clubhouse. I think there is a deep part of everybody that thinks we are going to come back every time it happens. It's a good feeling. We don't want to do it every night. But it was good."
Johnson highlighted his second three-hit game of the season with a two-out seventh-inning home run that halted Ross Detwiler's dominance and marked the start of an improbable comeback that was aided by the Nationals bullpen's five walks in the final three innings.
This late-inning patience, combined with Ryan Zimmerman's costly throwing error with two outs in the ninth inning, set the stage for Pena to deliver the biggest hit of his career. The utility infielder's decisive home run off right-handed reliever Craig Stammen sailed deep over the right-field wall and into the Nationals' bullpen, who cost Detwiler what appeared to be a sure win.
"I was feeling good," Pena said. "I saw the pitcher and I thought I'm going to take a chance. I just wanted to concentrate on one pitch. It was a good thing that I didn't miss it."
Pena, who was signed as utility infielder in December, has already made his presence known in Atlanta. He has delivered key hits in three of the nine wins the Braves have notched through the season's first 10 games.
"What a pickup that young man has been," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said after his club opened this three-game series with its seventh straight victory.
Pena also played a key role in the ninth inning, when his sacrifice attempt turned into a perfectly placed bunt single. After Blake DeWitt's sacrifice bunt put runners on second and third, Jason Heyward drew a two-out walk off Drew Storen, who served as the closer because Rafael Soriano had pitched each of the previous three nights.
That loaded the bases and set the stage for Justin Upton to follow with a sharp grounder to his childhood friend Zimmerman, who made a diving stab behind third base before making an errant throw that sailed wide of second base and into right field.
Johnson and Pena scored easily to tie the game and erase the four-run advantage the Nationals had gained against Julio Teheran. After struggling through the first two innings, Teheran and the Braves bullpen limited Washington to just two more hits the rest of the game.
"The whole time, the way our bullpen was throwing zeros up there, you felt like you were in the game," Gonzalez said. "We keep talking about our offense and all that stuff. But our pitching has kept us in the ballgame and given us a chance to [come back]."
After Detwiler allowed one run and four hits over seven innings, Heyward started a two-out, eighth-inning rally with a walk. Upton followed with a single before Tyler Clippard brought the Braves to within two runs on consecutive walks to Evan Gattis and B.J. Upton.
The bases-loaded walk to B.J. Upton came after Clippard got ahead with a 1-2 count. The Nationals were fortunate to escape the eighth inning with the lead. Storen entered after the bases-loaded walk and allowed Dan Uggla to hit a deep drive that center fielder Denard Span caught on the warning track.
"We just didn't make the pitches," Nationals manager Davey Johnson said. "We just didn't attack the hitters. We just kind of gave them some momentum."
The Nationals seized the early momentum as they scored two runs in each of the first two innings. Bryce Harper hit an opposite-field home run in the first inning after Span had reached courtesy of an errant throw that pulled Gattis off the bag just as he was trying to get comfortable during his first career game at first base.
Nationals catcher Kurt Suzuki walked to open the bottom of the second and advanced to second base on Detwiler's sacrifice bunt. Span followed with an RBI single to left that drew an unnecessary throw to the plate from Justin Upton. The throw allowed Span to race to second and easily score when Jayson Werth followed with an RBI single.
Showing some impressive mental resolve, and following the guidance of veteran catcher Gerald Laird, the 22-year-old Teheran allowed the Nationals to produce just two baserunners -- courtesy of two fifth-inning walks -- in his final four innings.
"For a young kid, the wheels definitely could have come off, and then next thing you know, he gives up five or six runs and then we're into the bullpen early in the game," Laird said. "He bounced back and showed me something. He battled."

Jean Grae "R.I.P (feat. Styles P & Talib Kweli)" (2011)
A few years ago super-talented New York hip-hop lyricist Jean Grae threatened to quit the music business altogether. Luckily for hip-hop fans everywhere, who treasure the relatively few positive female emcees in a male-dominated field, that temptation to call it quits passed and Ms. Grae stayed in the game and continued to both perform and record (she is in good company on Talib Kweli's label Blacksmith Music). Currently on tour she headlines Oakland's New Parish tomorrow night, September 7th, on a bill with Mr Len from Company Flow and local (by way of NY) DJ Ren the Vinyl Archeologist kicking things off, along with host Flossafee.
A while back I caught up with Jean Grae to ask her about her once thinking of quitting, and also what it is like to be a female in such a male dominated genre? "It's really hard to not quit. It's gonna be eighty times harder than the dude next to you," she said of being a woman in rap, adding that "It's definitely a difficult place to be and it definitely requires a thick skin. And sometimes it's hard and sometimes you want to quit." But she noted that having good supportive and positive people in your immediate circle and a "love of" what you do, makes it all fall into place.
Jean Grae headlines tomorrow, Wednesday September 7th, in the East Bay show. Doors 8pm. Tix $15 The New Parish is located at 579 18th Street near San Pablo in downtown Oakland More Info

Committing To Hybrid Distribution: "The Taqwacores" Story (Pt. 2 of 2)/
Guest post by filmmaker Eyad Zahra. His first feature film "The Taqwacores." -- a DIY production -- world premiered at Sundance earlier this year, and opens in New York City at the East Village Cinema today, October 22nd. To learn more, visit www.punkislam.com. Check out the 1st part of this post here.
Make no mistake. The indie film world is pretty topsy-turvy right now. As anybody who reads Ted's blog knows, there are fewer buyers out there, all the while the digital revolution has allowed for movies to be made then ever. The market is flipped upside down, and who knows when or where it will every land back on its feet.
As the producer and director of The Taqwacores, my first feature length film, I have had the highest of highs, and lowest of lows in my first filmmaking adventure. I want to be honest here, and not sugar coat the experience whatsoever. It has been a wild roller coaster to make this independent feature film, a roller coaster ride that has been going on for nearly 3.5 years (and counting).
As a first time feature length filmmaker, I had thought the biggest hump was production. I figured, all we had to do was get through those 3 weeks of shooting, and everything else would be down hill.
The reality is that it never gets downhill. It only gets uphill, and it gets steeper and steeper the more you go forward.
That said, I would do this all over again in a heartbeat. That's how much I love the story I have chosen to tell, and the life-long friendships I have made because of this production. To any filmmaker out there, you better make sure you love (not just "like") the people you are working with, and that your narrative is something you can dedicate years of your life too.
To learn more about how we made the film, check out the production notes here.
Today we release the film in New York City at the East Village Cinema.
At this juncture, we are releasing the film domestically through Strand Releasing (Marcus Hu, Jon Gerrans, and David Bowlds), and these guys have been nothing short of incredible. They have allowed me to be part of the entire release process, and I deal directly with the heads of the company, and my concerns are always answered by them in an immediate manner. I have been even given an open invitation to swing by their offices any time.
What I love about our release strategy is that we are using a hybrid method towards launching this film. We are doing a standard limited theatrical launch in NYC and LA, while along stressing an intense grassroots campaign effort. It's a bit of the old and new wrapped in one, which allows me to be involved as much as I want to be. I have been involved in every major decision for the film. I also manage our online media (website, facebook fan page, twitter) personally.
We originally launched the film at the Sundance Film Festival, which we were incredibly fortunate to get into. You can read about how that happened here.
At Sundance is where the seeds of our distribution deal were planted. Our sales team Visit Films (Ryan Kampe, Aida LiPera), were quite remarkable in helping us setup to sell at Sundance in a matter of weeks. Visit Films is a global sales representative with a business model designed to help first-time filmmakers maximize their audiences on a global scale. They are really the only people who do what they do in the United States. By having only one sales agent to deal with all of our distribution deals, and our global film festival outreach, a huge weight had been lifted off our backs.
We were quite lucky to find ourselves working with both Visit Films and Strand Releasing, and for us, working with these companies has been an incredible fit. I know there is now a movement for filmmakers to remove themselves from sales reps and distributers, but I urge caution to all filmmakers on this point. Make sure the route you choose is best for your film. Research as many case studies as you can, and always think of what's best in the long run.
Eyad gives an in-depth presentation about the do and don'ts of DIY indie filmmaking through a workshop he has created called "DIY NOW". He has presented "DIY NOW" at USC and most recently at the ABU DHABI FILM FESTIVAL. To learn more about DIY NOW, contact EYAD at email@example.com

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) The white banner fluttered in a stiff breeze before being removed from the east facade of Beaver Stadium to reveal ``2012'' in bold, blue numerals next to the years marking unbeaten or championship campaigns.
The 2012 season will be remembered in Happy Valley for a long time to come for reasons beyond wins and losses.
``It's exciting to go down as one of the great teams in Penn State history,'' senior quarterback Matt McGloin said after the rousing 24-21 win Saturday over Wisconsin. ``To have that season stapled on the stadium forever is a great feeling.''
Coach Bill O'Brien said after Saturday's win that acting athletic director Dave Joyner had called him earlier in the week about adding 2012 to the facade.
``When they put your 2012 team up there with those teams ... that means a lot,'' O'Brien said. ``I'm not sure there are many bowl games out there that are going to be played like that one. There's a lot there and just a fantastic senior class.''
The seniors went out in style.
The tense, overtime thriller came down to a stellar defensive effort spearheaded by tackle Jordan Hill, a 37-yard field goal in the extra session by redeemed kicker Sam Ficken, and the 44-yard miss by Wisconsin's Kyle French that finally brought the season to an end on a chilly, late November night.
And so a campaign that began with the dark cloud of NCAA sanctions hanging over the program because of the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal ended with smiles and relief. The Nittany Lions (8-4, 6-2 Big Ten) would have been a lock for a New Year's Day game had the penalties not included a four-year bowl ban.
Not that it mattered to star linebacker Michael Mauti.
``That's better than any bowl trip I've ever been a part of,'' said the senior, who wore his familiar No. 42 jersey over jeans after being sidelined with a left knee injury.
Fiery on the field, Mauti is known as much for a humble persona off it. He doesn't like the spotlight and deflected media attention off his injury and on to the rest of the team in the week leading up to the game.
All the while, his teammates wore ``42'' on the side of their white helmets in honor of Mauti, a suggestion made to O'Brien by Hill and fellow team captain Michael Zordich. Penn State's other outstanding outside linebacker, Gerald Hodges, switched from his No. 6 jersey to 42 in another grand gesture for Mauti in his last game in blue and white.
There's plenty of time left to wonder about Mauti's future. After the game, Mauti continued to brush aside questions about the severity of his injury, choosing to reflect on the remarkable end to an unparalleled season.
Back in July, two days after the NCAA levied the penalties, about two dozen teammates surrounded Mauti and Zordich as they made impassioned public statements that they were sticking with Penn State.
Other seniors like McGloin, Hill, Hodges, cornerback Stephon Morris and center Matt Stankiewitch also helped keep the team together through tough times, like the 0-2 start and the 35-23 loss last month to No. 4 Ohio State.
While Mauti was expected to be a star this year, McGloin's emergence as the best passer was a surprise - and a testament to the coaching job by O'Brien in his first season. The former Patriots offensive coordinator and position coach to star quarterback Tom Brady had McGloin running the Nittany Lions' new up-tempo offense to near-perfection by year's end.
McGloin averaged a league-best 272.6 yards passing and completed more than 60 percent of his 446 pass attempts with just five interceptions. He displayed his trademark confidence - which some people equate to a cocky swagger - but was held in check if he went too far by O'Brien and quarterbacks coach Charlie Fisher.
A former walk-on, McGloin finished with 24 touchdown passes to tie Daryll Clark (2009) for the school's single-season record. Under O'Brien's tutelage, McGloin also set school records this year for single-season passing yardage (3,266) and career touchdown passes (46).
Mauti was asked how the senior class would be remembered.
``I don't know if I can even really put that in words right now,'' he said. ``Maybe in a couple of years from now I'll be able to look back and answer. I am just proud to be a part of it. It's been the most fun I've ever had playing with the people I've never been closer to.''

5 dead, 30 missing in fire at Que. seniors' residence
Andy Blatchford, The Canadian Press
Published Thursday, January 23, 2014 6:16AM EST
Last Updated Thursday, January 23, 2014 9:35PM EST
L'ISLE-VERTE, Que. -- A Quebec village was jolted awake Thursday to the chaos of people scrambling to free neighbours from a seniors' residence as wind-fuelled flames rushed to swallow the building.
Pascal Fillion, who lives near the seniors' home in L'Isle-Verte, said he ran outside to find a group of locals and firefighters already at the scene, trying everything to save the panicked people inside.
For the most part, he said, rescuers felt helpless against a fast-moving blaze with smoke so thick it was nearly impossible to approach the building.
"It was just like straw on fire," Fillion said in the waterfront town of 1,500 people in Quebec's Lower St. Lawrence region.
"People tried to do whatever they could, but the fire was so intense that there wasn't much that could be done...
"I saw people crying, I saw people collapse because they were watching those people burn."
Just six months after Canadians were rocked by the Lac-Megantic tragedy, another Quebec town found itself waiting to learn how many people it had lost after fire ripped through the Residence du Havre.
And just like in Lac-Megantic, the destruction struck shortly after midnight.
Grim-faced provincial police confirmed that five people were dead and another 30 missing after flames consumed part of the 52-unit home.
Fillion said he saw several rescuers drop to the ground after being overwhelmed by smoke during their frantic efforts to get terrified residents out of the building.
At least one attempt, he added, was made to climb a ladder to one man cornered on his third-floor balcony.
"He was crying out for help -- he was screaming," Fillion said.
"I saw him fall to the ground. I saw that the fire had gotten him. He truly died in a horrible way. There was nothing that could be done."
Parts of the three-storey home, which opened in 1997, had sprinklers, while others didn't.
The local fire chief said sprinklers did go off, triggering the fire alarm and allowing firefighters to gain access to about one-third of the building.
Thursday's blaze erupted in the older section of the residence, which a Quebec Health Department document from last July states was constructed of wood.
The document also says the building had a fire alarm and that each room was equipped with a smoke detector.
After firefighters had finished taming the blaze, the home's hardest hit area had been reduced to a piece of facade, the fireproof elevator shaft and a mound of rubble that steamed for hours from the heat trapped inside.
The bitterly cold temperatures contrasted with the roaring flames that illuminated the night sky as firefighters poured gallons of water on the burning building.
As morning dawned, the burned section of the facility resembled a macabre ice palace. The structure was covered with huge icicles and sheets of ice, which firefighters said ranged from a few inches to as much as a foot thick.
Officials said the ice complicated the search for the missing.
Many of the residents were over 85 and all but a handful had limited movement, being confined to wheelchairs and walkers.
Fillion said the impact of the fire will affect just about everyone in L'Isle-Verte.
"For us, they were all people everyone knew," he said.
Deputy mayor Ginette Caron said only five residents in the 52-unit centre were fully mobile.
"The rest were semi-autonomous, practically no longer autonomous," Caron told a news conference. "Wheelchairs, walkers, people who can't move around. People with Alzheimer's, in the last stages of life."
At least three people were injured, although the extent of their injuries was unclear.
On Thursday afternoon, Quebec provincial police encouraged relatives of the residents to meet with them at a local school to help in their investigation. A local church was also opened for those who wanted to pray.
A stricken Jacques Berube stood outside the residence as he pondered the fate of his missing 99-year-old mother, Adrienne Dube.
Berube, 70, tried to locate her at a hospital in nearby Riviere-du-Loup as well as at a school in L'Isle-Verte, where residents were initially taken.
He was getting ready to hear the worst about his mother, who is blind but still mobile.
"I went near the building; the corner where her room was is burned," he said. "I'll just have to wait and see. I don't like it. But I don't have any choice. It's just reality."
Retired RCMP officer Pierre Filion, who had a cousin and an aunt living in the residence, said the tragedy had shaken the community.
"It's going to take a long time to start living normally," said Filion, whose missing relatives are both in their 70s.
"It's a very bad day for L'Isle-Verte. It's one of those days you should forget."
Mario Michaud, who lives across the street from the building, said he witnessed the drama unfold shortly after midnight.
"I got up to go to the toilet and I saw smoke," Michaud told local newspaper Info Dimanche.
"The fire had started on the second floor. I woke up my girlfriend and called 911. I saw the firefighters and they got to work.
"A woman on the second floor was shouting and she went out on to the balcony. Her son went to get a ladder but he couldn't get to her. She burned to death."
Provincial police Sgt. Ann Mathieu said the fact 30 people were missing didn't necessarily mean they were all dead.
"Some people may have gone elsewhere and there may have been people staying with family," Mathieu said.
She urged people who have any information on people considered missing to call police.
The residence also housed a social agency, a pharmacy and a hair salon.
Most residents were older than 75 and 37 were older than 85. The building included both single rooms and apartment-style dwellings.
Agnes Fraser's 82-year-old brother, Claude, was among the missing, but she said she knew she would never see him again because he lived in the section of the building destroyed by the flames.
"It's done," said Fraser, who added that her brother enjoyed living in the home.
"It was a very nice residence, it was very well maintained and there were some very good employees as well."
Therese Rioux, a volunteer at the local used-goods store, said she probably knows, or had at least crossed paths with, everyone who was unaccounted for.
"For the elderly, who wanted to finish their days in safety, and to die this way -- it's terrible," said Rioux, who woke up in the middle of the night, saw the flames and called 911.
All she could do was watch helplessly from her window as fire consumed the building.
Several fire departments in the region were called in to help extinguish the blaze.
Firefighters were unable to carry out a complete evacuation of the residence because the intensity of the fire limited their access.
"It was a total fire," said L'Isle-Verte fire chief Yvan Charron. "A third of the building was still standing and that was evacuated 100 per cent, but the cold (definitely) complicated things."
Firefighters arrived within eight minutes of getting the alarm and a total of six municipalities sent crews to battle the blaze, which was in the centre of the community about 250 kilometres northeast of Quebec City.
Several nearby houses were also evacuated as a precaution.
The fire broke out in -20 C temperatures, causing equipment to freeze, Charron said.
Even hours after the fire had been brought under control, some places were still too hot or unstable to allow investigators to examine them.
"There were trucks that were frozen, pumps that were frozen, hoses, but we were able to thaw them out," he said.
The president of an association that represents Quebec seniors' residences, praised the Residence du Havre as a fine facility.
Yves Desjardins said he'd met owner Roch Bernier several times and described him as a good man who ran a popular and excellent residence.
"Mr. Bernier is in shock," said Desjardins, adding the owner spent the night at the scene.
"He's not only the owner, but he loved the residence and he was very close to those people."
Prime Minister Stephen Harper offered his sympathies in a statement.
"On behalf of the entire country, I offer my sincere condolences to the family and friends of those who passed away following the fire at a seniors' residence in eastern Quebec last night," Harper said.
"My thoughts and prayers are also with those who remain unaccounted for and all those who have been injured."
Quebec Premier Pauline Marois sent a message from Davos, Switzerland, where she was attending the World Economic Summit.
"I want to extend my condolences to all the families affected by this terrible fire," Marois said. "I have been in touch with my office and we are doing everything we can to support the community and families.
"It's a private centre but we're talking about human beings, so we'll do whatever we can. I am deeply saddened by this event."
Canada has experienced a number of similar tragic fires in recent years.
One in Hawkesbury, Ont., in May 2012 claimed the lives of two people, while one person died in a seniors' apartment building in London, Ont., last October.
A blaze in June 2009 at a retirement residence in Orillia, Ont., killed four people and left six elderly residents critically injured.
A coroner's inquest following the fire made 39 recommendations related to automatic sprinklers in retirement homes and assisted living centres.
That led to a new law in Ontario, which took effect on Jan. 1, requiring all retirement homes in the province to have automatic water sprinkler systems.
Elsewhere, a fire at a retirement home in Langley, B.C., in April 2012 left a man dead and sent several other residents to hospital. And a woman in her 70s died in a fire at an Edmonton seniors residence in August 2012.
In August 1980, 21 one people was killed and 35 were injured in a fast-moving nursing home fire in Mississauga, Ont. Authorities said most of the victims died of smoke inhalation and extreme heat in the facility, which housed 198 residents.
In December 1976, fire raced through a two-storey nursing home in Goulds, NL, killing 22 people, including a 105-year-old woman.
The wood frame building in the community just south of St. John's was home to as many as 30 elderly persons.
The Lac-Megantic disaster in July saw 47 people killed when an out-of-control train loaded with fuel derailed and exploded.
Fillion said he kept thinking about Lac-Megantic every time he tried to describe what he saw.
"For us, it's like Lac-Megantic ... it's a big catastrophe."

First two ingredients are named meat products
Insufficient meat content
The first ingredient in this food is a named meat product inclusive of water content. Once that is removed as it must be to create a dehydrated product, the ingredient will weigh around 20% of its wet weight and be more accurately place much further down the ingredient list. This is followed by a second named meat product, this time in meal form, which is most likely the true first ingredient in the food. These are the only meat ingredients in the food.
There are two grains amongst the top level ingredients, both of which are decent quality (oatmeal & barley), plus potatoes. The protein content is boosted by potato protein 9th on the ingredient list, but this is low quality protein compared to meat and would suggest a very average meat content (which users may address by the addition of real meat to the diet).
There is a range of fruits and vegetables included, though we consider tomato pomace to be filler. There is also a good range of probiotics.
Overall, this looks to be a reasonable quality product, but is likely to be rather light in meat content.

In its present form, the proposal would apply only to people who have either been convicted of hooliganism, or people who are on trial and will be convicted within the six month period after the amnesty decree is adopted.
The Arctic 30 fall into neither category, but could be granted amnesty if the text is only slightly amended.
Greenpeace International lawyer Daniel Simons said:
"As it stands the amnesty text would not include the Arctic 30, but it very nearly does. The Duma would only have to make a relatively minor amendment to the text and include people charged with hooliganism whose trial has not yet been scheduled. Then the Arctic 30 could go home. Right now they still face the possibility of trial and conviction for a crime they didn't commit, and prison sentences that could stretch to many years. The charges against them should of course be dropped, but if the Arctic 30 case can be brought to an end through the amnesty then that would be a welcome development for people who have already spent two months in jail for standing up for their beliefs."
The proposal submitted by the President [1] includes - under point 3 - an amnesty for persons convicted under Article 213 of the Criminal Code (hooliganism), the offence with which the Arctic 30 are charged. It applies for a period of 6 months. But the draft resolution explaining how the decree must be implemented [2] states - in point 1.3 - that courts may apply the amnesty to persons whose case was pending at the time of adoption of the amnesty decree. This does not include the Arctic 30, whose trial has not yet begun.
It is not immediately clear whether the apparent omission of the Arctic 30 from the proposal is accidental or deliberate. Mikhail Fedotov, head of the Presidential Council on Civil Society and Human Rights, which originally recommended a broad amnesty, in recent days expressed the expectation that the President's proposal would include the Arctic 30. [3]
The amnesty is scheduled to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the adoption of the Russian constitution - December 12th. However the timeline has slipped somewhat, with the first hearing on the bill now scheduled to take place on December 17th. It is not clear when the final vote will be.

Universal Sues Pornographers Over '50 Shades' Use
(NEW YORK) -- Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, the kinky protagonists of the "Fifty Shades of Grey" trilogy, will soon be leaping off the page and into your local Cineplex.
Not surprisingly, the adventurous duo are also slated to make appearances, reportedly in three XXX films–the basis for a lawsuit claiming copyright infringement and false advertising, among other offenses.
The suit was filed on November 27 in U.S. District Court in Central California by Fifty Shades Ltd. and Universal City Studios, which owns movie rights to EL James's best-selling trilogy (which also includes "Fifty shades Darker" and "Fifty Shades Freed"). In the complaint, the plaintiffs maintain that Smash Pictures, of Chatsworth, Calif., along with two other adult filmmakers and three other men, are producing and distributing unauthorized adult films and sex toys based on the best-selling salacious books.
According to the complaint, the films take "wholesale the dialogue, characters, and storyline" from the three books, which were originally released as e-books and print-on-demand paperbacks in Australia in May 2011, September 2011, and January 2012. In April, 2012, they were later published in the US by Vintage books. The books have sold 40 million copies worldwide. "By lifting exact dialogue, characters, events, story, and style from the Fifty Shades trilogy, Smash Pictures ensured that the first XXX adaptation was, in fact, as close as possible to the original works," the complaint alleges.
According to the suit, Smash Pictures states quite clearly on its web site and on the back cover of the DVD box that it is "based upon the best selling series of books that has swept the world," putting "the kinky fantasies that you only imagined into vivid color." The suit also quotes an interview in LA Weekly in which Smash Pictures vice president Stuart Wall says that the first film is "very true to the book and its S&M themed-romance" with the script written "to be as close to the series" as the director can get.
The suit is seeking an injunction blocking the defendants from using the Fifty Shades trademarks to advertise or sell any goods or services, and from publishing, distributing, advertising or selling the alleged unauthorized material. The plaintiffs also request the defendants deliver all existing copies of the film to them "for destruction." Universal and Fifty Shades Ltd. also seek any profits the defendants earned from the film, along with suit costs, lawyer's fees and interest.
Smash Pictures did not return telephone calls from ABC News. A representative for Universal declined to comment, as did their attorney.

On April 2nd, I flew to San Diego, CA. from Boise, ID. in route to the Renovation Advanced Therapy Center in Tijuana, Mexico, to receive stem cell treatment for my Multiple Sclerosis. My boyfriend, Chris accompanied me on my journey to Mexico. We were driven from the airport in San Diego to the clinic in Tijuana, where we received a wonderful welcome by the nurses and medical personnel. Dr. Lopez arrived a little later and she was attentive, professional and knowledgeable. After some blood tests, we were served a delicious meal specially prepared for patients. After meeting with her, I felt very confident and liked her very much. They arranged for a short trip to the beach with both nurses keeping me company. My MS made me feel physically weak, but I was very happy, and optimistic emotionally. My surgery took a couple of hours, and it went very well. I was told that my stem cells were very active, healthy, and high quality. That made me feel very happy. After my stem cells were transferred back to me, I was wheeled back to my room. When we arrived there, I stood straight up, from the wheelchair, and walked, unassisted, across our room to sit on the bed. I felt no pain, no body aches, and my lower back, and legs felt strong. I hadn't felt that good or had been able to walk that good, in a long time! I was able to sit up straight, with no feelings of weakness. Next, I was given two injections. One, on each side that I think, consisted of more of my stem cells. We enjoyed lunch, and dinner and my nurses were wonderful to us. They were always so attentive and watching over me. I had 24-hour nursing care, the whole time that I was at the Renovation Advanced Therapy Center. Ever since my stem cell treatment, I have been able to sleep for 8 hours a night. I don't have insomnia, anymore. I have regained my equilibrium, and my inner strength, too! The next morning, we got up early, I got washed, and ready for the day. We had a good breakfast in our room. Dr. Lopez came over, to check on me, and to say goodbye to us. We took pictures, with her, and my wonderful nurses, Blanca, and Alma, and we all went down to the reception area, together. Their driver was there to meet us at 10:30 am to drive us across the border to the San Diego airport, to catch our return flight home to Boise, Idaho. I had no problems walking, unassisted, through both airports. I felt so amazed and so thankful that I felt so good, so soon. I know that I still have a few months for my stem cells to repair the damage, caused by my MS, but I really feel confident that they will because I already feel so much better! I will always be thankful to God, to Dr. Lopez, and to my nurses, who have really given me a second chance at living a normal life, again! They all treated us, like family, and we will always think of them that way, too! I pray that Stem Cell treatments will be accepted by health insurances, soon, so everyone, with MS, can afford to get treatments. Sharon Mander

|MartinLogan Releases The Grotto i � A Servo Controlled Subwoofer
|Monday, 13 August 2007
a Loudspeaker Technology Company, has released the new Grotto i
ultimate performance subwoofer. Dramatic bass detail and attack are
delivered via Grotto i's advanced servo monitoring and control system,
low-mass aluminum element driver, low distortion amp, and highly
evolved enclosure technology.
Features Include:
• Simultaneous LFE and 2-Channel Connection
• Rigid, Low-Mass 10-Inch Aluminum Element Woofer
• Servo Monitoring and Control
• Sealed Cabinet Enclosure
• 25Hz Level Control
• 300 Watt / 900 Watt Peak Digital Amplifier
• Precision Low-Pass Filters From a low-distortion 300 watt (900 watt peak) switching amplifier Grotto i delivers extremely articulate bass. MartinLogan's unique high-performance topology eliminates the need for exaggerated amplifier power ratings, transient-blurring ported or passive radiator enclosures common to so many subwoofers. A proprietary servo monitoring and control system ensures that the woofer output is dramatically free of distortion, resulting in a faithful replica of the audio input signal.
A robust connection and control system allows simultaneous connection of both 2-channel stereo music and multi-channel home theater—and allows each source to have individual crossover and level settings. LFE input effectively uses no low-pass filter, leaving crossover control to the processor. Left/right line level and speaker level inputs integrate six discrete audiophile grade low-pass filters between 30–80Hz allowing a different level and crossover point when playing back two channel music.
RCA output allows multiple Grotto i's to operate in serial. A unique 25Hz level control allows adjustment of system response by ±10dB to eliminate low-frequency build-up or suck-out at problematic bass frequencies common to most rooms. Proprietary ETC spikes couple the sub directly to the floor, minimizing lost energy and allowing tight, well defined bass.
Grotto i is available at MartinLogan ESL Series dealers including independent retailers and mass-market retailers such as Tweeter. Retailing $1,295

Detailed Description
Rare Numbered Limited Edition Copies!
Out Of Print! Very Limited Stock! First Come, First Served!
Remastered by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman from the Original Rudy Van Gelder Blue Note Master Tapes!
The Definitive issue of this classic Blue Note title!
Mono or Stereo?
Rudy Van Gelder first began recording Blue Note sessions in stereo in March of 1957. From then until an October 30, 1958 Art Blakey session, Rudy simultaneously ran both mono and stereo session tapes. The stereo presentation revealed more air, more detail and more sheer life than the mono. The mono playback was a wonderful remembrance of the old LP we all knew and loved. The stereo playback from the original masters was eerie. It was like going back in time to that day in Rudys studio. Quite simply, the stereo masters revealed more of what it was like to be there that day.
Why 45rpm?
Simply...Because it sounds better!
180 gram pressings versus 200 gram?
Music Matters, Lt. uses 180 gram pressings for the simple reason that they believe 180 gram weight is more than sufficient to provide a near perfect pressing. When Music Matters asked their friends at Record Technology Inc. for their recommendation to achieve the highest possible quality pressings their answer was unequivocal... go with 180 gram!
Upgrading Connections at Acoustech!
It goes without saying that there are many controversies and debates in the perfectionist audio/LP collector market. But one area of near universal agreement is the quality of mastering that emerges from Kevin Grays custom-built AcousTech Mastering studio in Camarillo, CA. Kevin, along with Steve Hoffman, has provided many of the best sounding new and reissued albums on LP during the last 5 or 6 years working outs of AcousTech.
Music Matters Exclusive!
Music Matters strongly feels that these Blue Note recordings deserve nothing less than the finest graphic presentation. The Music Matters Definitive 45RPM Blue Note jackets are designed to last a lifetime, using ultra-durable extra thick cardboard stock and thick, luxurious lamination... quality youll be able to feel in your hand the moment you pick up one of these albums. In addition, Music Matters has obtained exclusive access to a treasure trove of over 30,000 original Blue Note session photos from Mosaic Images for use in this series. The gatefold opens to display these session photos in stunning high resolution - four times sharper than original Blue Note jacket photos.
Hear what Michael Fremer, Wayne Garcia and others are saying about the Blue Note Definitive 45rpm Reissue Series from Music Matters, Ltd:
"Theyre BIG and open and definitely work in stereo because theyre not hard left/right stereo. The cymbals are so "chimey" and the skins so open! Even Rudy's typical boxy piano isn't too bad. These are going to be really good....!!!! (Real time reaction after hearing his first test pressing of Horace Parlans Speakin My Piece LP.)"
- Michael Fremer, Stereophile Magazine
"Ive heard a lot of Blue Note originals and myriad reissues over the years, but based on the sample test pressings heard so far, noneand I mean noneconvey the intensity of living, breathing music-making the way the Music Matters Blue Note series does. The sense of air, texture, and dynamic pop in these grooves is astonishing."
- Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound
"Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers The Big Beat and Horace Parlan, Speakin My Piece. And if this is any indication of whats to come, I advise you to get on the list now, before this collection is sold out."
- Albert Porter, www.positive-feedback.com
"The Music Matters 45s have all immediacy and add a free-flowing naturalness that is surprising at first but very easy to get used to."
- Marc Mickelson, www.soundstage.com
In 1964, tenor-saxophonist Clifford Jordan did the impossible, holding his own next to the remarkable Eric Dolphy on a European tour with Charles Mingus. Jordan's distinctive tone and ability to play both inside and outside made him an underrated giant. Cliff Craft, his great Blue Note album from 1959, shows that he was already a major stylist five years earlier. Teamed with Art Farmer and Sonny Clark in a quintet, Jordan's every note is full of soul, swing and subtle surprises. He never played the expected and, inspired by his sidemen, Jordan comes up with one fresh idea after another. Not content to merely follow Sonny Rollins or John Coltrane, Clifford Jordan blazed his own original musical path, making Cliff Craft into one of the most memorable recordings of his career.

"The albums are being cut at 45 RPM for maximum quality by Kevin Gray and me using our full ANALOG disk cutting system; most studios cannot even cut vinyl in 100% true analog anymore (they convert to digital first) but we can. The original Rudy Van Gelder engineered stereophonic session tapes are used when we master these gems. The sound quality is amazing on our test cuts. Like from heaven. First totally uncompressed versions of these jazz classics that Ive ever heard and trust me, you will be impressed; they sound like no other releases of this music."
"The sound is lifelike, the horns are in the room with you. Our non-invasive mastering insures the true breath of life on these original Van Gelder session tapes is transferred to the virgin vinyl with absolute authenticity. It is like hearing these BLUE NOTE masterpieces for the first time and that is NO exaggeration. When we heard the first lacquer acetate playback from our first mastering session I thought Joe Harley was going to pee in his pants he was so excited. Actually we all were; after 50 years of many lackluster and some downright bad sounding versions of these albums, hearing the real deal is a humbling experience, even for us hardened music veterans. You will be able to listen to the music exactly like we did..."

J.J. Redick smiled broadly and raised both fists over his head when the final buzzer sounded Sunday night.
The losing streak was over. Finally.
After almost a month of futility, the Orlando Magic put together their most complete performance in weeks and beat the Portland Trail Blazers 110-104 at Amway Center. The victory snapped the Magic's losing streak at 12 games.
"You always need wins," Redick said afterward. "There's no better feeling in sports than winning. There's no worse feeling in sports than losing. The losing wears on you, so any win right now is great for us."
They did it as a team. Almost everyone who played contributed something.
Redick returned from a shoulder injury to score 22 points. Jameer Nelson distributed a career-high 15 assists. And Gustavo Ayón played the best game of his Magic tenure.
"You always want to see the fruits of your labor," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said. "And in this business, it's wins and losses. It's just good for the guys' psyche overall, but we've stayed firm in our approach, and guys have been unbelievable throughout this process."
The Magic compiled 34 assists — one short of their highest total this season — and committed just 10 turnovers.
"It feels great," said Nik Vucevic, who supplemented his 17 points with a game-high 19 rebounds.
"I think everybody just enjoys this one a little more because it was a rough stretch. Twelve games without a win? It's tough. Nobody enjoys it. We're all competitors on this team. Especially when you play hard, like we do every night, it's tough to lose that many games."
Ayón, recently challenged for playing time by Kyle O'Quinn, came off the bench to play his best game of the season. The 6-foot-10 big man from Mexico tied a career high by scoring 16 points, collected 11 rebounds and dished out a career-high six assists.
"There is still a lot of the season left," he said. "And we have to keep winning games like this so we can stay positive."
Ayón, perhaps the team's most creative passer, provided the play of the game several minutes into the second quarter.
Stationed near the right block, Ayón received a pass from the perimeter. Then he delivered a no-look touch pass to Andrew Nicholson as Nicholson cut to the hoop. Nicholson finished the play with a layup that put Orlando ahead 31-28.
Redick made nine of his 13 shot attempts and showed few lingering effects from the right-shoulder injury he suffered in Milwaukee early this month. He tweaked his shoulder late in the first half but returned to play in the second half.
Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers (25-26) never seemed in sync on defense.
"We kind of come down and try to trade baskets," Portland big man J.J. Hickson said. "Good teams don't do that. Good teams get stops."
Defense remains the Magic's Achilles' heel.
They allowed the Blazers to make 50.5 percent of their shots.
And it would've been even worse if Portland's dynamic rookie point guard, Damian Lillard, hadn't struggled with his shot.
Lillard finished with 12 assists.but just four points on 1-of-16 shooting.
"It's disappointing when you get the looks that you always get," Lillard said. "In a close game if I make five of those shots, we probably win the game or have a chance down the stretch."
The Magic led by as many as 13 points, but the Blazers whittled that lead to 88-83 midway through the fourth quarter.
Redick responded on the ensuing possession by drilling a long jumper.
It gave Orlando (15-36) some breathing room.
"I'm always a big-picture guy," said Magic wing Arron Afflalo. "I don't want to be sour about winning tonight, but it's not the biggest relief because you've got to think about the grand scheme of things. It's one game."

"Be prepared," most everyone knows, is the motto of the Boy Scouts, the organization for young lads founded around 1907 in England by General Robert Baden-Powell.
"Be prepared for what?" someone once asked Baden-Powell, or so the legend goes.
"Why, just about anything," Baden-Powell reportedly replied. And now it seems, more than 100 years later, being prepared for "anything" includes "pwning n00bs." (That's gaming parlance for totally annihilating a lesser-skilled opponent.)
Mainstream media (by way of the blogosphere) recently became aware of the months-old news that (OH NOES!) the Boy Scouts of America is now offering a video-game awards in the form of a belt loop and the more advanced video game pin. Hysteria over our nation's lost youth immediately ensued, needlessly. Check it out.
Available to younger scout designations Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, and Webelos, these awards aren't the same as the "merit badges" more commonly known to those unfamiliar with the Scouts rather complicated advancement system. And like other awards, the new "video game" category isn't earned easily.
So before you start hand wringing over young men developing carpal tunnel and Vitamin D deficiencies in the mindless pursuit of an award from an association known for outdoor activities and self sufficiency, consider what needs to be accomplished to earn a video game loop and pin. Here are the requirements as listed on the Boy Scouts of America Web site. (Note, you have to earn the loop before you get the pin.)
Belt loop: Complete these three requirements
1.Explain why it is important to have a rating system for video games.
2. Check your video games to be sure they are right for your age. With an adult, create a schedule for you to do things that includes your chores, homework, and video gaming.
3. Do your best to follow this schedule. Learn to play a new video game that is approved by your parent, guardian, or teacher.
Academic pin: Earn the Video Games belt loop, and complete five of the following requirements
1. With your parents, create a plan to buy a video game that is right for your age group.
2. Compare two game systems (for example, Microsoft Xbox, Sony PlayStation, Nintendo Wii, and so on). Explain some of the differences between the two. List good reasons to purchase or use a game system.
3. Play a video game with family members in a family tournament.
4. Teach an adult or a friend how to play a video game.
5. List at least five tips that would help someone who was learning how to play your favorite video game.
6. Play an appropriate video game with a friend for one hour.
7. Play a video game that will help you practice your math, spelling, or another skill that helps you in your schoolwork.
8. Choose a game you might like to purchase. Compare the price for this game at three different stores. Decide which store has the best deal. In your decision, be sure to consider things like the store return policy and manufacturer's warranty.
9. With an adult's supervision, install a gaming system.
The video game award is one of several added to the Cub Scouts academic awards categories in November 2009. Others added include awards for disabilities awareness, family travel, good manners, nutrition, pet care, photography, and reading and writing.
As with all Boy Scouts awards, the video games loop and pin emphasize learning skill sets. It's an elective award. It doesn't replace required Boy Scouts achievements such as first aid.
Look, I'm not a Boy Scout cheerleader. True, my gentleman friend is still torn over whether giving up Eagle Scouts after discovering girls was or wasn't the right move. But not only is he trustworthy, loyal and helpful, dude retains some serious survival skills that will really come in handy should the End Times occur.
Plus, I'm irked by reactionary adults who don't get past the headline before they start smash-typing their rage, as if Boy Scouts is suddenly offering a merit badge in soft drugs: "O.M.G.! BOY SCOUTS WANT OUR KIDS HOOKED ON HALO! WTF?"
Obviously, a kid looking to earn the video game award already knows about games. By achieving this award, he's learning consumer awareness, communication with others (including adults), and teaching skills — stuff he may not get at school or at home. Upon receiving the award, in a ceremony before his troop, the lad also gets that awesome sense of accomplishment.
So, continue lamenting video games as harbingers of the end of civilization if you must. But rest easy in the knowledge that in the event of such an apocalypse, Boy Scouts will still be prepared.
