This book is ON THA REAL! It's a story about three homeboys who live in West Oakland California. There is something different about each one that keeps them from being liked by most of the Gs and "cool" kids in their school. Dante who is 13 and the main character was born to a mom who was on crack (she died). There is something wrong with his heart so he can't play sports or do a lot of physical things. The hospital could fix it but that would take a lot of money. Another boy named Wyatt is cool fat kid who likes animals and going to the zoo. He has a big snake and a family of pet rats in his room which he shares with his little brother Cheo who is also very fat. Their mom runs a little cafe down by the docks. Dante's other homie is a muscular boy of 14. His name is Pook and his "problem" is that he's tha only gay boy in his school. He is a good student and wants to be a doctor but he doesn't have tha money to go to Medical School. I am not gay myself but reading about him helped me to understand gay people a lot better. All three have known each other since they were toothless. Dante's dad is an engineer on a tugboat and is gone a lot of tha time but there is a lot of love between him and his son. Tha story is set when tha boys find a big pack of coke that was thrown away by a drug dealer when he was getting chased by tha cops. His name is Air Touch. He's 18 and a typical wannabe gangstuh. Tha three boys also make friends with a mysterious homeless kid named Radgi and try to help him get off the street. At first tha boys think what they found is only crack and are ready to give it tha flush. But then they find out that it's pure coke and worth hella money. Then tha BIG question is do they try and sell it to get tha money each one needs to make their lives better when they know it will be cooked into crack and sold right back in their hood, or do they do tha right thing and flush it? This is a very interesting story because it's not like many other "young people books" where the plot and characters are very simple. There are many other interesting characters like Kelly who is a 14 year old Korean boy who's dad owns a liquor store, and Jinx who is a crack addict at 13 but who is trying to get clean. I really liked tha descriptions of tha characters in this book. If you have any imagination at all you should be able to see every one of them. This is a very deep book and there are so many other things goin-on plus tha main story that you never know what's going to happen on tha next page. There were many surprises. Some were good and others made me sad or angry. There were other things that made me laugh out loud. Tha ending is another surprise in a lot more ways then one. This is tha kind of book where you think you know what is going to happen but there is always something different instead. I stayed up all night to finish this book and I give it all five stars. I have mostly gone to movies in my life and I didn't like to read a lot before. But this book is like tha best of Boyz n' Tha Hood and Menace 2 Society with a bullet. None of tha characters in here are tha sterotypes you could expect them to be. You could even feel sorry for Air Touch for being a fool and getting caught in tha game. I went on to read other books by Jess Mowry, like Way Past Cool, Skeleton Key and Voodu Dawgz and I recommend all of them.

On a Saturday morning in April 1992, Theodore G. Schweitzer powered up his optical scanning machine in a corner room of Hanoi's Central Military Museum. Vietnamese officials had approved his use of the scanner to copy documents for a book he was writing on the museum's war archives. Schweitzer had convinced them that he was a private American researcher, which was part of the truth. The part he left out was that he was also working for U.S. intelligence.
A museum curator handed Schweitzer a faded red ledger. Its 208 pages contained a surprise: the index for a vast archive of...

He took quite a bit of time reviewing the different brands he had along with what would fit my needs and use. He sold me a unit he did not even have in stock where as most people will sell you what is in front of you to make the deal. I received my product in just a few days and another person in his staff even assembled it for me before I left. I also purchased some parts for my weadeater and blades for my mower. They were competitively priced and did not try to bend me over as M & C equipment in Brenham did. M & C tried to charge me nearly double as what McCoys did. I would higly recommend McCoys for your lawn needs. I work in parts sales and it is nice to be treated well when you go some where.

We work hard to strive for great customer service. YES, repairs may take a while due to the amount of mowers that come in every day. Our mechanics are working diligently to get mowers back to their owners. We cannot please everyone as much as we try to. As far as the judgment, CHARLES D., our business was robbed by people who do not seem to care about morals or other people's property. If you want to announce the judgment to the community then please tell the WHOLE story not just what you feel should be made known. We cannot control the selfish actions of others and putting negative things online against our business is not the way to handle this issue. We are very aware of the issue, with your mower, that was stolen from out lot. We are working with our insurance department to fix this issue as fast as we can. As I said before, we cannot control actions of others or how fast our insurance company responds to the issues that are handed to them. We sincerely apologize for the negative experience you have had with our business. To address the other negative comments, our business is customer service. We do strive to keep people satisfied but that may not always happen. In checking our performance with the BBB, our company is rated A+. We have worked hard for more than 40 years to build and keep such a status and we intend to maintain it that way. Furthermore, we may not always get to satisfy all of our customers' needs and/or concerns, but do not forget we will do the best of our ability to satisfy, uphold our company's honesty and reliability, and continue to give back to our customers and our community.

That was the plan. The Yamaha TRX850 was a match for Ducati's 900SS of its day but never sold well – the last few machines were ushered out of showrooms for under £4K. Shame. the Yamaha TRX850 is a sporty motorcycle but road biased with tons of character. Can be a bargain on the used market as they last well. Ride Quality & Brakes 3 out of 5 Slightly bouncy when new – most Yamaha TRX850s would benefit from new fork oil and springs as a minimum now. But the Yamaha TRX850 is still neutral and nimble and has the feel of a proper sports bike without being intimidating. Brakes were, again, fine in their day but Yamaha calipers are famous for seizing so a strip and grease may be needed. Engine 4 out of 5 Yamaha TRX850uses parallel twin also used in Yamaha's TDM850. It produces less power than sports 600s of the same era but it's much gruntier and more satisfying to use thanks to that twin cylinder character. 270 degree crank (one piston is a quarter of a cycle behind the other) makes Yamaha TRX850 feel like a V-twin. Build Quality & Reliability 2 out of 5 Yamaha had a bad patch in the 1990s for quick-corroding bikes. The Yamaha TRX850 is, unfortunately, one of these machines. Fasteners and brackets will almost certainly be rusting already. If it's spread no further that's ok but if it's well set in anywhere, be careful. Yamaha TRX850 reliability problems are rare but big wheelies can starve the engine of oil – listen for nasty noises. Insurance, running costs & value 3 out of 5 A few years ago the Yamaha TRX850 was one of the biggest bargains on the market. Unfortunately prices have reached that level where they don't drop any further and Suzuki's SV650 offers a similar experience for a reasonable price too. Clean, bargain Yamaha TRX850s are still out there if you hunt – and they have much more presence than the effete SV. Find a Yamaha TRX850 for saleInsurance group: 13 of 17 – compare motorcycle insurance quotes now. Equipment 2 out of 5 Very few frills on the Yamaha TRX850. There's some luggage space under the pillion seat but that's about it. Headlights and mirrors are on the poor side. Comfort's not brilliant for the pillion but it's ok for the rider. Yamaha TRX850's wind protection is reasonable but there's quite a bit of weight on the wrists – better at speed than round town.

Read more grunt in second and third gear giving it a respectable midrange and unlike my last GSXR600 i don't have to rev the hell out of it. I have put wrap on the down pipes and upgraded the cans to a pair of blue flames which made an improvement on delivery and now it sounds more like a twin should. As for comfort, i am5'10 and the only snag i have had on a 250 mile ride was a tingle in my hands from vibration, everything else fine. I think it is fair to say that the suspension will need an over hall by 20k but i have tightened it all up and that will do for now, but then my local roads are bumpy. Overall, a cracking bike, some can be found with all modifications already done for less than 2k on e-bay.

ROCK OVER LONDON Radio LP for June 21, 1987
This 1987 episode of ROCK OVER LONDON starts with a double helping of LIVE cuts from GENESIS (an exclusive version of "Invisible Touch" from Los Angeles) and THE FIXX ("One Thing Leads To Another") with quotes from members of both bands.Also, hear an interview with Irish singer/songwriter Paul Brady, who wrote songs for Tina Turner and has been namechecked in the past by Bob Dylan.Also, a 1987 update on HUMBLE PIE and a spin of their 45 debut, "Natural Born Bugie," with good news for Frampton, who's on tour at the time with David Bowie.

Verizon FiOS won't be coming soon to a home near you, unless that home is inside a community with a standing agreement with the phone company.
Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam made it clear to attendees at Tuesday's Goldman Sachs 22nd Annual Communacopia Conference his priority continues to be investing in the company's highly profitable wireless business, while the company's wired infrastructure is being targeted for more cost cutting, especially in areas designated to see existing copper infrastructure decommissioned. As for expanding FiOS into new communities, McAdam said he instead preferred to concentrate on improving market share and profits for the next few years in areas already getting the fiber optic service.
McAdam noted John Stratton, president of Verizon Enterprise Solutions, has been hard at work pruning Verizon's wireline products and services targeted to business and government customers.
"I think [he] killed about 2,000 products this year, and we have taken 350 systems offline last year," McAdam noted. "I think we are already at 250 this year. That sort of discipline gives you the ability to streamline your infrastructure."
For residential customers, Verizon has two sets of offerings: one for customers served by FiOS fiber optics, the other for customers unlikely to see fiber upgrades indefinitely.
Inside Existing FiOS Service Areas
"We are doing some major technology shifts within FiOS to make it more efficient," McAdam said. "We're going to concentrate there for the next couple of years."
McAdam's signals to Wall Street were loud and clear: no more FiOS expansion into new communities for now.
Instead, Verizon will focus on improving existing service in several key areas:
- Verizon has almost two million optical terminals that McAdam says were active at one point and are now sitting idle, suggesting FiOS has won and lost nearly two million customers since launching, either because the customer switched providers or moved away. McAdam said he wants to improve Verizon FiOS' product set enough to attract those customers back. He noted with the terminals and cables already in place, the capital costs to win back a former customer are near zero;
- Verizon is introducing a new terminal this fall. Verizon's FiOS Media Server "eliminates the requirement for coax, once you get into the optical terminal in the basement or wherever in the house," McAdam said. "That slashes the installation time, and therefore makes the product a lot more profitable for us going forward. It eliminates set-top boxes, it is all IP-based going forward."
- Verizon will continue to expand Verizon FiOS, particularly in New York City where it has a commitment to offer service.
Verizon FiOS has managed to build a much larger market share than its nearest neighbor, AT&T U-verse. McAdam claimed Verizon FiOS has achieved a 39 percent market share in broadband and around 34 percent on its television service so far. McAdam's goal is to boost that to 45 percent. In areas of Texas where Verizon first introduced its FiOS fiber optic service, the company already has a penetration rate above 50 percent for broadband and 50 percent for television, demonstrating room to grow market share. AT&T's U-verse TV penetration rate is 20.1 percent.
For Those Unserved by FiOS
Except for Fire Island, N.Y., there are no significant announcements of FiOS expansion. Instead, Verizon has focused on investing to improve its wireless 4G LTE cell networks with the hope existing landline customers will consider switching to higher-profit wireless service. An attempted trial of Verizon Voice Link, intended to be an entry-level wireless replacement of landline service, failed badly on Fire Island due to an avalanche of complaints about poor quality reception, dropped and incomplete calls, and lack of support for data.
Now Verizon is back with a new offering, its 4G LTE Broadband Router with Voice ($49.99 2-yr contract with $175 early termination fee/$199.99 month-to-month).
"Securely connect wired and wireless devices to the 4G LTE network, and connect your landline phone to make calls," Verizon's website says. "Combine voice and data on a Share Everything Plan for added savings."
The device can function as both a wireless landline replacement and router for data. The unit includes three Ethernet ports and Wi-Fi to share your connection. A landline phone or cordless phone base station can be plugged in as well.
Verizon charges an extra $20 a month for Home Service Monthly Line Access on Share Everything Plans, which covers your telephone service. Customers get unlimited local, long distance, call forwarding, call waiting, three-way calling, and voice mail. 911 is available, but Verizon disclaims any responsibility if you cannot reach an operator. The device also supports TTY-TTD calling.
Verizon claims users can expect 5-12Mbps downloading and 2-5Mbps uploading on Verizon's 4G network, assuming there is solid coverage where you use the device. Usage caps apply. A backup battery keeps the service running for up to four hours of voice calling in the event of a power outage.
McAdam admitted the thing that keeps him up most at night are regulatory issues. He particularly called out Europe, which he believes is hostile for investment. But Europeans pay considerably less for wireless service than North Americans pay, and often have more choices due to competition and regulatory oversight.
"I think the beauty of the '96 Telecom Act was that it was such a light touch on broadband and mobile," said McAdam. "And that is — and I sit in Europe talking to investors all the time — that is the biggest difference between the U.S. and Europe."
To head the FCC off from pursuing any additional regulatory oversight, McAdam claims he reluctantly approved Verizon's lawsuit against the government on Net Neutrality.
"We have had to take some positions, frankly, that we didn't want to take," McAdam said of the lawsuit. "It opened the door for them to get into price regulation of broadband. And I think that is not their charter, and I think it would be a mistake for the U.S. economy and certainly the telecommunications ecosystem."
Verizon Wireless' latest 4G LTE router supports wireless landline service and 4G data. (1 minute)

Could have killed me and makes acne worse afterwards
on 01/08/2013
I took Ocella (generic Yasmin) from the ages of 19-23. Before that I took Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo from the ages of 16-19. I only was put on the Yasmin because when I tried to quit Ortho I broke out terribly (only ever had mild acne). What they don't tell you is that when you go OFF birth control pills, your acne often gets MUCH worse than it ever was, because it does such unnatural things to your hormones. Google around and look at the acne after the pill thread on here, you will find a million horror stories of women who took the pill, went off, then developed severe cystic acne.
After about 4 years on Yasmin I noticed that I couldn't think straight, always had debilitating headaches, and my muscles were weak even though I worked out a lot. My doctor said that the Yasmin was causing my migraines, and that developing migraines while on the Pill meant I was at an increased risk of having a stroke.
Stopping it was hell. I had no idea what I was getting into. I lost at least 1/3 of my hair and had a receding hairline. My hair started growing in gray in places. I had uncontrollable acne that did not respond to BP or extreme elimination diets and supplements. It took about 6 months before my body started feeling normal-ish again and a year before I tamed the acne with Atralin (a brand of tretonin).
Don't mess with this stuff, or any pill. Try the copper IUD or some other non hormonal method if you need BC. It is just not worth the risk to your body and skin.

You have to be careful about what you share online these days. I think people have a false sense of security when they say something online because they think nobody important is paying attention or that it's no big deal. Of course that's never the case.
People have been fired for what they've posted on Twitter. Celebrities and businesses have received massive backlash after posting insensitive tweets, for example the NRA and Celeb Boutique after the Aurora, CO movie theatre shooting.

New Brookland Tavern Presents:
Those Darlins
Music Band, Say Brother
"The artist is the opposite of the idealist. The artist does not tinker with the universe, he recreates it out of his own experience and understanding of life." -Henry Miller
Blur The Line feels like an eponymous debut. This record is not a departure, nor is it simply growth. It is a realization purely of where Those Darlins are as artists right now. With Blur The Line, Those Darlins take away the labels and constructs that people use to define, categorize and ultimately destroy. They don't want to hide or create some manufactured mystery. They show it, reveal it. That revelation is more powerful than anything else.
Those Darlins entered the public eye in 2008. They took on matching surnames and announced themselves a gang of resilient outsiders, each a misfit of southern upbringing, with its problems and charms. Their self-titled debut carved out an ethos and a spot on the map. Their warning: they weren't just anybody's darlings; if you didn't want them in all their wild glory, you didn't need to hang. They followed that rural-tinged debut with Screws Get Loose - a spiky garage/art rock album that launched them onto the international scene. However, growth can be painful. In those travels and the travels that followed, the collective persona they had cultivated began to strangle their individuality.
Jessi, Nikki, and Linwood set out to uncover the true complex, contradictory nature of themselves as individuals and as a band. Over a year in the making, Blur The Line is the product of this search. It was written and recorded during their first extended time off the road since formation – this time with a lineup evenly divided between the sexes after the addition of Adrian Barrera (Gentlemen Jesse & His Men, Barreracudas).
The result is a record to file on your shelf between Patti Smith's Easter and Fleetwood Mac's Tusk. Blur The Line is a first-rate album of powerful tracks that mingle heavy rhythms and distorted Neil Young guitars with ear-candy harmonies and a slew of captivating lyrics. The band called on Roger Moutenot (Yo La Tengo, John Cale, Jeff the Brotherhood) to produce Blur The Line, and it turned out to be a revelation – a chance to stretch and give shape to their work with his supportive, laid back demeanor and experienced hands at the helm.
Blur The Line is a look inward, asking bigger questions and tackling an archetypal theme – the opposing forces that lurk in us and in our world. "This may be the most important theme on this record," says Nikki, "Balance and finding balance within ourselves and others."
This isn't mopey existentialism; it's a salute to what's always been at odds in our world, and the beauty that comes from that friction. Asking big questions leads to great art. The record is an exploration of dualities: masculinity/femininity, nature/civilization. Blur The Line is nothing if not forthcoming, laced with sardonic humor and overt sexuality, coupled with sincere vulnerability and often brutal honesty. "I don't think a three piece female band could have made this album," notes Jessi. "Nor could an all male band."
On BTL, it's Those Darlins' ability to balance and love both the masculine and feminine powers (as all great rock does) that gives them potency, and in that crucible, great music is made – without the reductive and often exclusionary world of "women's" rock. Feminist critics deride oevres by bands like Led Zeppelin as oppressive and one dimensional while ignoring their long womanly hair, flowing shirts and moaning falsettos that sing, in truth, of women's actual power, albeit to the sound of phallic guitar thunder. On the other hand, Patti Smith makes no apologies about her love of men and male-created art. She understands the power of both male and female etc, and chooses simply to be an artist. Balance.
The sparks of the band's self-scrutiny may have been lit during the band's European tour last summer. A German radio interviewer asked of the band, "Are you optimists?" After some blank stares, Linwood moved the conversation along. But Jessi couldn't shake the question - or her inability to answer it. "I was hung up on the realization that the answer was no. I remembered a time when I was an optimist, but somewhere along the road that had changed. I wanted to get back to an optimistic point of view." Her eventual reply became the lead lyric in one of Blur The Line's most potent numbers, "Optimist"—"Used to be an optimist / It got too dangerous."
Listening to the album's bookend tracks, we hear the band's musical and thematic approaches at work. Their modern take on the underpinnings of rock and roll is revealed, bubbling up from the gritty traditions of both white rural folk and African American blues. Starting with the graphic, moving narrative of "Oh God," a modern fable that chronicles a shadowy exchange with an unsettling host of visuals, and ending with "Ain't Afraid," a vivid and blustering 12-bar declaration, the album's narrative comes full circle. "I don't know what lays in store / but I ain't afraid anymore," sings Jessi. Facing fear leads to empowerment.
The coming months will have Those Darlins back on the road, doing what they're known for: delivering some of the most dynamic and indelible live shows today. Come ready. As Jessi shouts on the anthem "Western Sky," "I don't wanna hear another civilized roar / Let's make our own noise."

My photographic journeys lead to discoveries of subject matter which are enhanced by natural light and interest. In this sense, visual storytelling transcends typical graphics, by using photographic and video imagery that distinguishes subject matter through composition, color or lack of color, focus and interest.
The resulting images not only document, but also to arouse a viewer's senses, emotion and intellect. These images may be used for prominent viewing in the home and business environment as shelf and wall groupings; subject matter includes fine art landscape, waterscapes, street, and documentary photography.
My primary cameras include a Sony a6000 DSLR, and a Nikon Coolpix P&S is used for convenience with expedition work. Images are primarily edited and enhanced in Photoshop Lightroom 5.7. From time to time I will use an iPhone or iPad, typically when this suits me. These images may also be edited with iPad apps. Previous works were taken with a Canon 5D DSLR.
I have made slideshows of my past work and am now working with a GoPro camera and software to further enhance my videogaraphy. These are edited for presentation with iMovie and Boinx FotoMagico, and can be seen on my YouTube Channel.
