Pulling up a chair in Tiffani Thiessen's kitchen
Teens were well-served by television drama and comedy in the fresh-faced '90s. Thanks to shows such as "Party of Five," "Blossom," "Dawson's Creek" and "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," that generation's TV coming-of-age can truly be called the wonder years (pun intended).
But how many actresses can say they were among the cast of that era's most iconic series, "Saved By the Bell" and "Beverly Hills, 90210"?
Tiffani Thiessen, for one. At 44, she still has that girl-next-door charm coupled with breezy, peppy California confidence; her face is still beauty-pageant perfect. She's made the transition from teen idol to adulthood (wife/mother/working actress) without any Hollywood headlines drama or tragic flameouts suffered by too many sitcom stars.
Today, she's still in the public eye but a far cry from her days as cheerleader Kelly Kapowski and bad girl Valerie Malone. Thiessen is still acting ("Alexa & Kate," a sitcom on Netflix), but she is best known for her easygoing way in the kitchen on her Cooking Channel show "Dinner at Tiffani's." The success of that cooking show, where she invites some of her friends and famous pals to dine with homey meals she creates, has led to her first cookbook, "Pull Up a Chair," (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, $30) out this week.
The mother of two youngsters and wife of former Houstonian, actor Brady Smith, Thiessen makes it look easy in the kitchen, with her practical advice and recipes designed for casual dinner parties and feeding an active family. Writing a cookbook, however, was a new learning curve.
"I don't know if I learned anything new about cooking, but I learned something about stamina and how much it takes to do a book," she said. "I make this joke a lot, but it literally felt like I birthed a baby but with four hard corners."
Those four corners hold 125 recipes encompassing breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as desserts and themed dinner party planning. Fans of "Dinner at Tiffani's" are familiar with her easygoing style in the kitchen. Her cookbook bears that same mark — a natural, unstudied approach to home-cooked meals that she said she learned growing up in her middle-class California home.
"My love for cooking comes from the most honest, genuine place: watching my mom, aunt and grandmother in the kitchen," she writes. "Growing up, you could usually find me hanging out with them, helping make things like my mom's famous Cream Cheese Pie (recipe in the book). These incredible women not only taught me how to put great flavors together, but also instilled in me how special it is to share a home-made meal, no matter how humble."
The book is liberally laced with dishes, thanks to her Texan husband, dear to San Antonio hearts: nachos, ribs, chicken tortilla soup, chili, enchiladas and queso. "I've always had a love for Southern food. It just heightened when I married a Texan and learned about Texan foods," she said, adding that her best friend, from South Carolina, also helped fuel her love for Southern foodways.
There's little Hollywood gloss in Thiessen's game. That's apparent in her show and in the company she keeps: Her TV and movie-industry friends gobble her homey meals with a gusto one would assume they'd approach Los Angeles hot spots like Nobu and Spago. "Funny story: I've never been to Spago," she said with a laugh. "I've lived my whole life in Southern California, and I've never been there."
So what kinds of food appeals to her? "Food that tastes good and looks good on the plate," she said. "And maybe that says something about the company you keep: It's who you pull up a chair with. It's about the food and the people you break bread with."
When asked how she would define her own style of cooking, Thiessen said, "I would say it's food that gives you a hug. It comes from the heart. It comes from what makes me feel good," she said. "There's a long relationship with some of the recipes. It's slightly comfort food — comfort for me because it feels like a hug."

Here's a great recipe from our friend Julia at The Roasted Root. There are plenty of ways you can make this cake your own. For instance..
=> Add some orange extract + orange zest to make it a chocolate-orange experience.
=> The same goes for peppermint or almond extract, or really any flavor you're going for.
=> Add fresh raspberries to the cake batter and bake them in for a berry-studded treat.
=> Add a tablespoon or two of coffee grinds for an even richer cake
=> Use any sweetener you prefer in place of pure maple syrup, such as honey (avoid for low FODMAP), coconut palm syrup, or agave nectar.
I recommend topping the cake with a glaze (you can prepare a powder sugar-based glaze for an un-paleo cake, or whip up a coconut milk-based frosting/glaze), fresh seasonal fruit, and some roasted nuts. I went the coconut milk glaze + blueberries + dark chocolate shavings + maple-candied pecans route.
- 8 oz unsweetened baking chocolate , chopped into chunks
- 1/2 cup UNSWEETENED COCOA POWDER
- 1 cup COCONUT OIL
- 1/2 tsp CINNAMON
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 2 tsp VANILLA EXTRACT
- 1 cup pure maple syrup
- 6 large Eggs
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, and line an 8-inch spring form pan with parchment paper. Melt the chocolate, cocoa powder, and coconut oil in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly just until melted. Remove from heat and add the sea salt, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and pure maple syrup. Stir well to combine, transfer chocolate mixture to a mixing bowl, and allow it to cool 8 to 10 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs until well beaten. Pour the eggs into the bowl with the chocolate mixture and stir well until a thick batter forms. Transfer the cake batter into the prepared spring form pan and place on the center rack of the preheated oven. Bake 30 to 35 minutes, or until cake has set up in the center. Allow cake to cool for 1 hour before slicing and serving. You can serve the cake with a simple glaze, seasonal fruit, and/or roasted or candied nuts.

Editor's Note: "Inside the Session" is a sneak preview of the privacy and information security-related sessions that will take place at the 59th Antitrust Law Spring Meeting. For more information on the conference, visit the ABA's page on the event.
Created by the Dodd-Frank Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") is part of a wider regulatory effort to make "markets for consumer financial products and services work in a fair, transparent, and competitive manner." The CFPB, which has existed since last July, receives regulatory authority from the Secretary of the Treasury on July 21, 2011. Due to uncertainty in the financial sector surrounding the scope of the new bureau's authority, the House Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit Subcommittee held an oversight hearing on March 16, 2011. There, CFPB chairperson Elizabeth Warren testified that the bureau's purpose is to "make markets work for buyers and sellers alike." Warren's testimony drives to the heart of the questions posed at the Spring Meeting session on the CFPB: What role will the CFBP have in antitrust enforcement and consumer protection
The Secure Times recently met with Suzanne Wachsstock, who will moderate the session entitled: "A New Paradigm: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Antitrust Enforcement." Wachsstock—a vice president and Chief Antitrust Counsel for American Express—gave us a sneak preview of what to expect from the session, which takes place on Wednesday, March 30, from 2:00 to 3:30 pm.
Wachsstock noted that one of the key goals of the session is to understand the jurisdictional boundaries of the CFPB, other federal consumer protection agencies, and the states in regulating consumer financial markets. She noted that how these entities collaborate going forward, and how the existence of a regulator solely focused on consumer financial protection changes the mix, will be a focus of discussion.
Another area Wachsstock anticipates delving into at the session is the role of the CFPB in maintaining market competitiveness, and addressing and preventing economic problems. Panelists will explore, for example, how might things have been different if the CFPB had been in existence prior to the current recession? Wachsstock noted that the underlying question is whether consumer protection principles could have prevented the current economic crisis.
Finally, the session will examine how, if at all, antitrust principles will be relevant to the work of the CFPB. According to Wachsstock, the consensus among the speakers seems to be that the CFPB, with its focus on consumer protection, will have little use for traditional antitrust theories, but economic analysis and general market principles will certainly play a role. Expect a lively discussion of these important and timely issues.
Session Information: A New Paradigm, Wednesday, March 30, 2011 at 2:00–3:30 pm
Presented by the Consumer Protection and Insurance & Financial Services Committees
Description: What should be expected from the newly established Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? Will the CFPB turn to FTC jurisprudence to define "unfair and deceptive acts and practices"? Should the CFPB's decision-making process incorporate antitrust principles and economic analysis? Panelists will explore these issues and what enforcement role will be left to the states.

Last month, BizFed Los Angeles and BizFed Central Valley, joined together for an inaugural BizFed Sacramento day to talk to policymakers about BizFed's priorities and to establish relationships that benefit the region's economy. The trip was an opportunity to amplify the voice of business in policy, as legislators and business leaders held panels to discuss state issues ranging from air quality to new housing development.
Of the many topics discussed, climate change was an underlying theme throughout the day. From energy policy to wildfire regulations, climate change will impact almost every policy issue and new proposals to reduce greenhouse gases. California is leading the fight on this issue and BizFed wants to ensure businesses have a seat at the table as key regulatory decisions are being discussed.
While policy can help to ensure more sweeping changes across the state, the business community is leading the way by implementing measures to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. There have been cargo equipment handling upgrades at the ports, transitions to EV trucks, and climate-minded building standards put in place, and more will be done to push forward investments in a sustainable California.
Housing is another issue at the forefront of many Californians' concerns, and was highlighted on the panel with Senator Scott Wiener, and Assemblymembers David Chiu and Rob Bonta. The panel underscored opportunities to address the current housing crisis by eliminating some of the barrier's developers face and highlighting areas for development where additional tax incentives could be available.
The state of California is exercising its own muscle in terms of housing. There's a new perspective on the issue and I welcome the state's increased participation in finding ways to stimulate housing. According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, California has the highest percentage of unsheltered homeless individuals in the country at nearly 70 percent. Action needs to be taken to get people off the streets, and into homes as well as increase housing stock for middle class workers and families near the jobs they are working at.
From healthcare to transportation to land use and more, the Los Angeles region has led the charge of addressing some of the biggest issues facing our state. And as BizFed chair, I'm pleased with some of the initiatives the state has made to complement the existing progress within the California business community. I look forward to more opportunities for collaboration between state legislators and business leaders as we move through 2019
Steve Bullock, CFO and Co-Owner of Cerrell, was recently elected as the Los Angeles County BizFed Board Chair. BizFed is a massive, diverse grassroots alliance that advocates for policies and projects that strengthen our regional economy. He joined BizFed in 2013 and has been an active member since, serving as Advocacy Chair from 2015 to 2016. Since Steve joined, the organization has expanded its reach by supporting the formation of a similar organization in California's Central Valley -Central Valley BizFed, in 2018.

I spent the first half of November traveling solo around Bali. It was magical, blissful, invigorating, and rejuvenating. I love to travel and while there is something so special about traveling with a friend, partner, or family and getting to create and share memories together, there is something really empowering and relaxing about traveling solo.
I know for many people traveling solo can feel a bit overwhelming. I've gotten many messages on Instagram along the lines of "You're doing that alone?!" or "I could never do that!" If traveling solo holds no appeal to you, read no further. But if it's something you've thought of doing but aren't quite sure if that's too far out of your comfort zone, keep reading, I'm sharing my tips for making traveling solo accessible and most importantly – FUN!
I'll start with saying I didn't wake up one day and decide my first solo trip would be halfway around the world to Bali. I've been traveling abroad since high school when I decided to take Spanish for a year so I could spend the summer in Cadiz, Madrid, and Seville. In college, I went abroad twice, first to Australia and then to Copenhagen, and since then I've traveling both throughout the States and abroad as much as my bank account and vacation days allowed. Getting comfortable traveling takes time, and like anything, the more you do it the easier and more natural it becomes.
Leading us to tip 1: start small. take a day trip to a nearby town you've been wanting to visit. wander around, take yourself out to eat, see the sights of the place. Then maybe take a weekend trip a few hours away, then maybe fly to a different state, etc. etc. Whatever feels accessible to you right now, start there. As you get more comfortable traveling in general and on your own, expand your horizons and the distance you go.
No matter where I am traveling to I like to have a plan in advance and do a bit of research. The less I know a place, the more I prepare. For Bali this meant reading up on the culture a bit, reading blogs to find out what other people enjoyed or didn't, searching for restaurants, researching hotels and Airbnbs, and noting all the sight seeing or activities that I wanted to do. There is so much information out there in the digital age, with a bit of patience and time you can find everything you need to know! Once I have my favorites I save them in a list on google maps. These points stay available even when I don't have service so I am able to navigate to and from places without worrying about roaming or Wifi. Before I leave I have a rough outline of what I plan to do each day. This also helps me to fit more in because I'm not spending time on my trip trying to figure out where to go or what to do. Tip 2: Do your research. Pin your favorite places.
Contrary to Tip 2, Tip 3 is to deviate from the plan as necessary. A plan is great but so is spontaneity and being flexible. Opportunities may arise to do something new or you may feel incredibly jet lagged and taking a nap sounds way better than a strenuous hike. Let your plan provide the framework, from there go with the flow. Traveling is your vacation time after all, the less you worry about changes along the way, the more you will enjoy your time.
While you're traveling solo, keep in mind that that doesn't mean you have to do everything alone. Tip 4: ask for help! If you need a recommendation of where to go or how to get there, just ask! Hotel concierges and Airbnb hosts typically know the area well and can provide great recommendations of where to go. Or ask a stranger. I've only had positive experiences with asking people. Be kind, courteous, and grateful, but definitely reach out when you need to!
Tip 5: Be safe; Trust your gut. I operate on the theory that all people are good people and that the universe will keep me safe. That said, no matter where in the world you are traveling, the later you are out at night and the more you drink, the more likely you are to get into an unsafe situation, get lost, etc. When I'm traveling solo (and honestly really all the time) I'm back home early and avoiding the club scene. If going out & drinking is something that you want to include in your travels, be mindful and careful just as you would in any city. Along with some caution, trust your gut. If something doesn't sit right with you – listen to that, don't do it. I've canceled Airbnbs and plans because something felt off to me. There might not be a concrete reason but if my gut tells me no, I head that.
And lastly, make the most of the time to yourself. Not only does this mean you get to determine what the day holds for you, but it's really precious time to take to reflect, journal, meditate, and simply be.
Have other questions about traveling solo? Leave them in the comments and I'll get back to you 😽

The very first step to building your own successful online business is understanding how to find a profitable niche market online. Affiliate marketing is the process of connecting people to what they're already looking for online. It's one of the most lucrative industries in the world, with over 6 billion in revenue per year.
Billions of people every day are buying things online and affiliate marketers are making commission after commission by connecting those buyers with what they're looking for. How does this process work?
It all starts with a niche!
In this article (with VIDEO) I'm going to show you how to find profitable niche markets online and how to promote the products you love to the target audience that's looking to buy them. You don't need your own products or services. You don't even need to be tech savvy with a background in building websites. Spending thousands of dollars on platforms that slowly empty your bank account is a thing of the past.
With the right training and an understanding of how to find successful niche markets, success in online business is closer than you think!
How to Find a Profitable Niche Market Online
Watch the following video to understand what a niche is in terms of online business. Understanding how to find your niche market leads you directly to the more important question of how to make money with niche markets online. I'll explain the process, show you how to find a profitable niche, and then connect you with the best training platform online to be successful.
What is a Niche?
In terms of online business, the definition of niche that I want to focus on is the one highlighted in the definition above: "a specialized segment of the market for a particular kind of product or service." In other words, a niche is anything with a target audience.
Anything you can think of where there is a product or service available and there is a target audience looking to buy it can be a profitable niche in terms of online business. Got it? Good. And that brings us to the real question:
How Can You Make Money with a Niche Market?
When you start researching how to make money with a niche market, this takes us into the world of affiliate marketing and affiliate programs. Through affiliate programs you can promote the products you love from trusted merchants like Amazon, Target, Walmart, Best Buy, etc. These merchants will then pay you commissions when your target audience makes a purchase.
Partnering with trusted merchants can be very lucrative. This is especially true when you learn how to create content that gets real traffic that converts.
Affiliate marketing is so popular because you don't have to have your own products or services to do it. You simply need to know how to identify a niche market and then create content that promotes relevant products or services to its audience that is already looking to buy.
Using Amazon.com to Find the Best, Successful Niche Markets Online
Amazon.com is a great and very popular example of an affiliate program you can partner with. We've all bought products from Amazon. It's quick and convenient, and it seems like anything you could ever want is available. Amazon has millions of products that people are searching for and buying every day.
Even more importantly for someone who is looking to find a profitable niche, taking a look at the Amazon home page can give you great profitable niche market ideas.
Just taking a look at Amazon's departments and categories, you can find great niche market ideas for building an online business. Beauty & Personal Care, Shoes, Jewelry, Books, Fire TV, Home Audio & Theater, Cameras, Cell Phones & Accessories, Video Games for Kids are all examples of highly profitable niche markets you can profit from.
Choose a Niche That You Have a Passion For
Taking a look at all the profitable niche market possibilities that are out there, it's important to choose one that you have a passion for. To make a niche market profitable there are certain steps you'll have to take, one of which is creating quality content (more on that in a bit).
When you choose a niche you have a genuine interest in, it makes it that much easier to write content for it.
I've always been interested in cameras and photography, so as an example, the niche of DSLR cameras could be one that I would choose.
Typing DSLR cameras into the Amazon search pulls up a page of over 20,000 products I could chose from to promote to my target audience that shares that interest. The products range from cameras, camera gear, and accessories that tens of thousands of people are looking to buy.
Choose a Niche that is Specific
Notice I gave the example of DSLR cameras as a good niche as opposed to just cameras in general. It's important to choose a niche that is specific. This allows you more directly target the audience you're trying to reach.
With a niche that is too general your niche website can come off as one with less authority. When you create your niche website around something specific, like DSLR cameras as opposed to cameras in general, you show specialization.
Be careful not to go too specific though. A single model of camera would be too specific of a niche to try and market. It would be difficult to continually create content when your entire niche site is only about a singular product.
So now the questions is, how exactly does affiliate marketing work so I can make money from a niche market?
How Does Affiliate Marketing Work? What are the Steps to Take After Choosing a Niche Market?
There are 4 basic steps to building a successful online business:
- Understanding how to choose a profitable niche, (the part we're covering here,)
- Building your website on the right platform,
- Knowing the popular searches your target audience is searching for so you can get them to your site, and finally
- Turning that traffic into revenue.
There is an online community & training platform that I'm a part of that teaches these 4 steps in great detail.

See why Wealthy Affiliate is my top recommendation for anyone looking to get started earning fast in affiliate marketing. Check out how it all works and see my personal results!
To show how affiliate marketing works, let's imagine you've gone through Amazon's categories as shown above. After going through them, you've decided to choose the DSLR camera niche we just talked about.
You find that a very popular camera is the Canon EOS Rebel T6. It's one you've even thought about buying yourself.
So now, how can you use affiliate marketing to start getting commissions when people like you are looking to buy this camera?
The Power of Reviews
How many times have you done a Google search looking for a review of a product before you buy it? We've all done it countless times. Google populates your search with relevant reviews and you chose one that catches your eye.
You read the review that talks all about that camera's specs, its pros and cons, and finally at the end of the article you find a link to buy the camera off Amazon. You click the link to buy it, and a couple days later it's in your hands.
Well did you realize that the link you clicked through to make your purchase on Amazon was an affiliate link? This link tracks your purchase and sends a commission to the reviewer who wrote the article that got you to Amazon.
Depending on the product, this could earn the reviewer a 6%-10% commission and even much higher. And when that review is ranked high in Google's search results, think of the thousands of times people are going through this exact process and going through that exact affiliate link.
This is why affiliate marketing is such a lucrative industry to jump into for those looking to work from home and get paid. It all starts with choosing a profitable niche market.
Finding Affiliate Programs Relevant to Your Niche
Amazon is a great affiliate program for someone who is just starting out. But as you start to grow your website and build traffic, you'll be very happy to know that there are literally tens of thousands of affiliate programs out there for you to partner with.
Doing a quick Google search of "your niche + affiliate programs" will pull up page after page of great affiliate programs that are free to join. Find one with a commission schedule you're happy with and apply!
The training community I'm a part of recently added an affiliate program search fully integrated into the platform! It's never been easier to partner and earn! [Click the picture below]
No matter what niche you choose, the online marketplace is filled with millions of people looking to buy products in that niche. Unlike a traditional brick and mortar business, your target audience is a global one. From DSLR cameras to boys basketball clothing to any passion you have interest in, there are countless profitable niches out there for the taking.
And through the power of the internet, your global audience will have 24/7 access to the quality content you create.

If you are a home buyer, here are some questions for you: How many houses have you viewed? How many open houses have you attended? Now the final question: has your real estate offer ever been accepted? That's probably a big fat nope.
If you have experienced this scenario, then you know that offers will get rejected. And sometimes, that offer is yours. But what do you do if your real estate offer isn't getting accepted? How can you finally get the home of your dreams?
Here are a few points to ponder: as of spring 2018, inventory is low. That means it is a seller's market. More buyers means that a typical offer just isn't going to cut it right now. You need to beef up your offer strategy to make sure that yours is the winning real estate offer. Here are some tips you should incorporate into your next offer situation:
Even if you think your offer is great, there's no telling what the seller thinks. Little things can go a long way to making – or breaking – the deal. If you want help navigating the world of offers, give Shamrock Home Loans a call. We have been there and done that, not only with our clients, but with ourselves too. Let's work together to make home ownership a part of your reality today.

Happy Birthday Jonathan!
Since the births of Kaity and Khi, and since moving to Ohio where birthdays are celebrated differently than in Louisiana, Jonathan's birthday hasn't been celebrated very well. So this year we had a surprise party for him. His friends from work helped me spread the word.
We told Jonathan that there was a barbecue to celebrate Kaity and Khi's birthdays, today ~ on HIS day. And he HAD to be there on time and for the whole event! He was so unhappy, but he's too nice to be mean about anything.
He was really surprised when he got there and found out that the whole thing was planned for him and his friends were there!
We love you Jonathan. I'm sorry you felt forgotten but I'm glad you were surprised!

A Near Mint 1959 'Double-Cut' Les Paul Junior
1959 Gibson Les Paul Junior
This super light guitar weighs just 7.00 lbs. Solid 'figured' mahogany body with rounded edges. One-piece mahogany neck with a nice, fat nut width of just under 1 11/16 inches, a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches and that great '59 "baseball bat" style profile. Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 original jumbo frets and inlaid pearl dot position markers. Headstock with "Gibson" logo and "Les Paul / Junior" silk-screened in gold. Black plastic bell-shaped truss-rod cover with two screws. Closed-back single-line Kluson Deluxe strip tuners with white plastic oval buttons. Serial number inked-on in black on the back of the headstock. One super hot black P-90 pickup with a huge output of 8.26k. Black plastic pickup cover stamped on the underside "UC - 450 - 1 / 2". Single-ply 'tortoiseshell' plastic (0.08 inches thick) pickguard with four screws. Two controls (one volume, one tone) on the lower treble bout. Black plastic bell-shaped "Bell" knobs. The potentiometers are stamped "134 924" (Centralab, June 1959) and the capacitor is the requisite 'Bumble-Bee' type. Combination "wrap-over" bar bridge/stud tailpiece. There are a few very tiny 'dings' on the body and some very light belt-buckle scarring (nothing through the finish) on the back and treble edge. There is one very small surface mark on the back the neck behind the eleventh fret. The body and neck are a rich cherry color with no fading and no finish checking… Otherwise this incredible fifty-nine year old 'under-the-bed' guitar is in 'as near mint as one could ask for condition'. The original 'jumbo' frets show just a miniscule amount of playing wear (first three frets only), the fretboard shows no wear. The mahogany body has some really nice grain showing through - this is one of the best looking and best sounding 'Double-Cut' Les Paul Juniors from the magical 1959 year that we have ever handled. Housed in the original Gibson brown 'Aligator' softshell case with brown felt lining (9.00). (#2042)

Project Definitive Rhyme Legends
: beat bros
: atmosphere, murs, el-p, mr. life, the grouch, scarub, soul position, brother ali, aceyalone, aesop rock, cannibal ox, others.
year of release
: 2004
The idea seems obvious enough: take the momentarily hottest crews and use their music for a sort of best of mixtape. Good idea, right? And it's exactly what DJ Fran'tik did. But who did he pick? Well, there's Project Blowed, there's Definitive Jux, there's the Rhyme Sayers and there's the Living Legends.
What leads us to the next thought: As much vinyl they all have released, as little that still is. Or better: not everything they've done also came out on vinyl (especially in the case of the Legends). Not a problem today if you're willing to mix with CDs. But Fran'tik doesn't seem to like to do that. Instead he opts for songs that were released on vinyl, what reduced the number of songs he could have picked dramatically and led to some interesting omissions. Notably the fact, that Scarub's incredible "Savvy Traveler" only appears in one of the many skits and interludes (namely "
Introducing The Legends
"). And speaking of those: they were not done with two turntables and a mixer (as opposed to the C-Rayz juggling of "
Battle Me
" or the clumbsy turnable trickery of "
Everafter (JuggleMix - DJ Fran'tik
"), as they are also using excerpts form documentaries, interviews, etc. Thus they offer a good quick window into what is to come.
But let's start where this record starts: Project Blowed. You get the whole crew with "
Heavyweights Round 4
", i.e. part four of the posse cut series. Fran'tik lets it run for several minutes, really showing the sever lyrical power this crew possesses. Apart from this, there's only five more songs, with the Rhettmatic remix of Busdriver's "
Get On The Bus
" offering an interesting (and quite possibly rare) selection.
As Definitive Jux has more vinyl out, there's more songs Fran'tik can put on here. He starts with Aesop Rock's "
", continues with a non Def Jux release "
" by Cannibal Ox feat. Rob Swift (off the Tableturns release "State Of The World" compilation), goes back a couple of years and visits Y@k Ballz' "
". Paving the way for El-P's incredible "
Deepspace 9mm
", he takes the beat and puts Digital Underground's "Doowutchyalike" lyrics over it. This idea is obviously in respect to "
Risky Business
" by Murs and Shock G, which also appears. Then there's also Mr. Lif's "
Front On This
" and "
" by S.A. Smash.
What gets us to the Rhymesayers part. Here we get Eyedea & Abilities featuring Brother Ali doing "
Rhymesayin' Over Beats
" (over an Atmosphere beat), Soul Position find "
No Excuse For Lovin'
", Brother Ali returns with "
Room With A View
" and even Mr. Dibbs gets an appearance, credited as "
a track taken from Table Noise Vol. 1
". With the latter giving you a not so obvious selection among more obvious selections, like "
God's Bathroom Floor
", a great song off the "
" vinyl EP. Then there's also "
Flow Forever Like Today (DJ Fran'tik)
", a pairing of Atmosphere with Rakim.
And finally, the Living Legends make an appearance. The funniest moment appears with "
Just Died To Night And Day
", as Fran'tik exposes the cheesy Cutting Crew sample Eligh used. Additionally to that, there's The Grouch & Eligh's "
", the Living Legends' "
Forces Of Nature
" and "
Gotta Question For Ya
", Scarub's "
Wishful Thinking
", luckyiam.PSC's "
Come Along
" and Sunspot Jonz "
", to mention about two thirds of all the songs.
In total, this mix goes through 49 skippable entities. So you do get a whole lot in not that much of time. Maybe a little too much to truly represent the four crews. A series of two records with two crews each would have served the purpose much better. But then maybe there would not have been enough songs. After all Fran'tik ops for "
Dry Bones (Remix)
" by the Oddjobs feat. Aesop Rock, Kimani and Vast, notably in the Rhymesayers section, even though the record came out on Third Earth Music. Sure a member of the Oddjobs toured with Slug, but considering the featuring, you wonder why this didn't appear in the Def Jux part.
But hey, when the reviewer starts to nag about minimal details like that, it must mean that otherwise the record is actually quite satisfactory. And it certainly is that. It did intend to do too much in a too limited amount of space, but Fran'tik still pulled it off.

I woke up to a waterfall in my house this morning. I ran around screaming and trying to save things. Fortunately, my house has many holes in it, so the water drained away once we stopped the leak from the tub upstairs. It smells weird, but that's what happens when a 120 year old house gets wet.
Ah well... Can't worry too much about it. It'll get fixed, and I'll dry things up when it does.
Sorry. ^_^;;

Auckland Housing Programme FAQs
What is the purpose of the programme?
The Auckland Housing Programme (AHP) will ensure that more high quality homes are provided to Aucklanders more quickly. The programme will deliver a mix of state housing, affordable homes for first homebuyers, and homes to the general market.
Where will the land come from?
Appropriate Kāinga Ora sites have been selected for development, with others being identified all the time.

By using Kāinga Ora land more efficiently we are able to increase the amount of state housing available to Aucklanders, and provide more homes to the market.
How many homes will be built?
The AHP has been in operation since June 2016. Over 10 years it will deliver:
- around 5,200 additional new state housing homes
- around 12,800 new affordable and market homes.
How will so many new homes be built quickly?
The Auckland Housing Programme is made up of a variety of small, medium and large scale developments.
The Kāinga Ora team responsible for the development of the highly successful Hobsonville Point, is planning and managing some of the larger developments on Kāinga Ora land within the Auckland Housing Programme, including at Northcote, Mt Roskill, Mangere and Oranga.
There are about 120 other Kāinga Ora sites where smaller or medium-sized developments are underway to better utilise land and increase the supply of homes.
We're working with the building industry to create smarter, faster, more innovative ways to support Auckland's growth.
Will the community have a say?
Each development will be carried out with the input and involvement of local community stakeholders. As well as addressing Auckland's need for more homes, each development will bring benefits to the community. These benefits will vary depending on the scale of the development, the area's infrastructure and amenity needs, and on local community aspirations.
What will happen to the current Kāinga Ora tenants?
Kāinga Ora has a dedicated tenancy liaison team that works one-on-one with tenants affected by development. This includes working closely with tenants to find them an alternative Kāinga Ora home that suits their needs, and covering all reasonable costs associated with their move.
Will the construction affect me if I live in the neighbourhood?
It depends on the scale of development we will undertake in your area. For smaller sites, unless you are an immediate neighbour you are unlikely to be significantly affected. For the larger developments there will be impacts on the wider community. We will manage construction to reduce those impacts and will keep locals informed.

Kevin Francis Gray
Andersen's is pleased to present the first major solo show in Scandinavia by Irish sculptor Kevin Francis Gray: to mark his return to Copenhagen after curating a group show at Andersen's in the spring, Gray re-immerses himself in the space to introduce recent works and a significant new installation.
This new exhibition is presented across the two rooms at Andersen's Amaliegade, each offering unique insight into the practice and new works of Kevin Francis Gray.
The courtyard gallery will unveil never-before-exhibited pieces: namely, two bearded figures in marble. The stately Bearded Man who dominates in black Marquina marble is in conversation with his peer, the Bust of a Youth in white Carrara marble. Both demonstrate Gray's mastery of the material; the control of the sculptor who effortlessly translates the suppleness of the initial clay into the hardness of the rock. On the walls hang Gray's most recent works, from his Marble Panel series. Four small marble panels framed in oak hint at the inky lines of a sculptor's preparatory drawing. By sculpting into stone the imagery commonly reserved for this initial stage of the process, Gray manipulates our expectations and further abstracts the corporal imagery. We catch only glimmers of a shoulder, a hip or the curve of a breast, as though the artist preserves the complete visual for himself. The illusion of the malleability of the stone matched with these hypnotising lines makes it almost irresistible not to reach out and feel them, grazing over where the artist's hand has been before.
The street-view gallery presents the monumental Maquette Table. For this installation, Gray has transported the 4x4 m artist's working table from his London studio to the gallery. It is an invitation into the mind and process of the artist. Gray moves beyond simply sharing the materiality of his works, and exposes the vulnerability of his most intimate studio practice. With this piece, the viewer has the opportunity to step into the artist's studio and experience every step of the idea-generating and making process, complete with experiments, failures, finished works, sketches and inspiration. A truly immersive experience, Gray hopes each viewer will find their own uniquely meaningful way to engage with the Maquette Table and its contents.
About Kevin Francis Gray
(b. 1972, Armagh, Northern Ireland) Irish sculptor Kevin Francis Gray has developed a career working between London and Italy, focusing his most recent practice on pushing the boundaries of marble-sculpting. His early works, ranging from resin to bronze and then marble, garnered positive press and attention from a growing group of loyal collectors.
His latest body of work furthers his exploration of contemporising marble, while drawing inspiration from some of the greats: Michelangelo's prisoners, de Kooning's clam diggers, Moore's reclining figures and Matisse's nude. While the dedication to the stone and pushing forward the boundaries of what it can do are palpable (Gray works the marble in such a way that it appears as malleable as clay), his work exudes a beautiful tension in what it expresses: stories of people informed by Gray's personal history, growing up in South Armagh, which innately informs the emotional content of his sculptures.
He received his BA from the National College of Art & Design in Dublin (1995) and the School of Art Institute in Chicago (1996) before going on to earn his MA in Fine Art from Goldsmiths College in London. He works closely with the Giannoni marble studio in Pietrasanta, renown for its use of sculpting techniques dating back to Canova and Michelangelo.
About Andersen's
Andersen's originally began as a project space, Andersen's Wohnung, on Linienstrasse in Berlin. From 1996 to 1999 Andersen's Wohnung operated as an alternative art space run by Claus Andersen and German artists Thilo Heinzmann and Anselm Reyle.
The gallery opened in Copenhagen in 2005 with its focus based on Claus Andersen's German connections and started out with artists he was working with in Berlin, among these being Henrik Olesen, Anselm Reyle, Olafur Eliasson and Tomás Saraceno.
Today the gallery represents a variety of emerging and established artists from all over the world. A key feature of the gallery's programme is a focus on conceptually rigorous artistic practices that take part in the vital dialogue transpiring between art and the broader socio-cultural currents in contemporary society.

TRE® (Tension Release Exercises) & Singing Bowl
We know we need to clean and exercise our body regularly to stay healthy – but what about doing exercises that cleanse our body from daily stresses and bathing ourselves in harmonising sound frequencies?
Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (or TRE®) is based on the fundamental idea, backed by research, that stress, tension and trauma are both psychological and physical. TRE® has been taught all over the world to successfully release stress for generally healthy people, athletes as well as victims of trauma.
TRE® is a series of exercises that assist the body to release deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma by activating a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating, releasing patterns of stress held in the muscles and myofascia. When this muscular shaking/vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the nervous system and the body naturally return back to a state of balance.
TRE® is designed to be a self-help tool that, once learned, can be used throughout one's life to proactively buildup of stress and to maintain long term balance.
In this class you will start with gentle warm up and stretching, followed by receiving guidance on activating your reflex tremor in the hip flexor muscles lying down on the floor. The exercises are friendly to all fitness condition.
In the second half of the session, sound vibrations of Himalayan Singing Bowl will further support the release of tension and trauma in the body, while the nervous system and the body's energetic field is further balanced.
This 90-minute session is limited to 12 participants only. Each participant will receive individual guidance on TRE® and sound therapy.
This class can be a perfect way to end a busy week while effecting profound healing on many levels during and after the class.
Anne Cousin is a Globally Certified TRE® provider and a Registered Somatic Movement Educator trained in Body-Mind Movement Education and Therapy at The Center for BodyMindMovement ( PA, USA). and Somatic Experiencing® Provider with the Somatic Experiencing Trauma Institute.

Zebra mussels have been positively identified in Lake Travis, weeks after biologists confirmed the invasive species had spread to the Guadalupe River Basin.
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) and the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) said a zebra mussel was confirmed in the lake June 22 after a marina staff member reported a single zebra mussel attached to the outboard motor of a boat there. Biologists found more mussels attached to other nearby boats and on the marina infrastructure.
"This is pretty disheartening for us and our many partners, including marinas, who work to prevent this invasive species from spreading – it's two new river basins with infestations this year," said Monica McGarrity, TPWD Aquatic Invasive Species team lead in a prepared statement. "But we are very grateful to the marina staff for reporting the sighting, our partners at Texas Invasives for relaying the report to us, and the LCRA for participating in a rapid response to investigate the report."
Zebra mussels originate in Eurasia and can reproduce rapidly. TPWD said the mussels can "shoreline rocks and litter beaches with treacherously sharp shells, clog public-water intakes, and damage boats and motors left in infested waters." Inland Fisheries Director Brian Van Zee said the next step is now to educate the public and local marinas to help prevent the mussels from spreading into other lakes.
"Public awareness goes a long way in helping with the effort to prevent zebra mussels from spreading," Van Zee said. "This is a battle we cannot give up on – the cost of these infestations is large and affects so many people. We have to keep up the fight and try to inform the public as much as possible about how they can protect their lakes from invasive species."
McGarrity added while there is an inevitable risk of zebra mussel larvae moving downstream into Lake Austin and Lady Bird Lake, there is still the immediate risk of zebra mussels hitching a ride to those lakes on recreational equipment.
"Downstream dispersal depends on the number of larvae going downstream, the conditions they experience and the timing," McGarrity said. "But a boat can take a ready-made colony to another lake at any time – so preventing the spread within these newly infested basins is still really important. The longer we can stave off new infestations the longer we can prevent potential recreational impacts or costly impacts to infrastructure."
TPWD added it is illegal to possess or transport zebra mussels, dead or alive, in Texas. Boaters are required to drain all water from their boat and onboard receptacles before leaving or approaching a body of fresh water to prevent the transfer of zebra mussels.
"Cleaning, draining and drying really doesn't take much time – it's a few simple steps that boaters can take to prevent these infestations," McGarrity said. "There are more than 1,500 boat ramps in Texas and we can't be everywhere, so we have to rely on boaters, marinas and concerned citizens to help in this fight."
Since zebra mussels were first found in Texas in 2009, 11 lakes in five river basins have been infested:
- Belton,
- Bridgeport,
- Canyon,
- Dean Gilbert (a 45-acre Community Fishing Lake in Sherman),
- Eagle Mountain,
- Lewisville,
- Randell,
- Ray Roberts,
- Stillhouse Hollow,
- Texoma,
- Travis.
Marinas should contact TPWD at 512-389-4848 for assistance if staff locate zebra mussels on incoming boats, or for coordination when boats are leaving marinas on infested lakes. TAP HERE to learn more about preventing the spread of zebra mussels.

Professor Philippe Sands has urged the world's highest court to diverge from earlier conclusions that require an extremely high standard of proof for genocidal intent. If the Serbian argument is accepted, the Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide will become nothing but a 'historical monument' and a 'dead Convention', Sands warned on behalf of the Croatian team. Croatia filed a suit against Serbia for genocide during the conflict from 1991 to 1995
At the beginning of the second round of the arguments in the Croatian case against Serbia for the violations of the Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Croatia's representatives responded to the rebuttal evidence presented by Serbia last week.
As British professor Philippe Sands noted, Serbia's hopes rest on two arguments. First, Serbia argued that the ICJ lacked jurisdiction to adjudicate in cases that pertained to the events before 27 April 1992, when the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia formally came into existence. Second, Belgrade hopes that the Court will adopt the approach it did in 2007 in the Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Serbia case, when it ruled that genocide had been committed only in Srebrenica.
As Sands argued, the Court set an extremely high standard of proof for 'genocidal intent' in that judgment. Such standard of proof has not been applied in any of the judgments rendered by international criminal tribunals. Invoking the decision of the ICTY Appeals Chamber to reinstate the genocide charges in the indictment against Karadzic, Sands stressed that the specific intent required for the qualification of a crime as genocide could be inferred from a number of 'facts and circumstances' such as the perpetration of crimes directed against the same ethnic group, or the scale of the crimes, the systematic targeting of victims on account of their membership of a particular group, or repetition of destructive and discriminatory acts. Those are allegations made by Croatia in the suit it filed against Serbia. According to the British professor, this is the correct standard that the International Court of Justice should apply when deciding in this case.
The high standard of proof for genocide would make it possible for the Court to 'lead a more leisurely life', because the states would not turn to it for the interpretation of the provisions of the Genocide Convention, Sands noted. The Genocide Convention was adopted to protect the wellbeing of individuals and groups, Sands warned, not to protect states from the risk of litigation before the courts. Sands urged the judges not to allow 'one of the world's great humanitarian instruments' to become a 'historical monument' and a 'dead Convention'.
Professor Sands referred to the judgment in the Zdravko Tolimir case. Tolimir was sentenced to life in prison for genocide in Srebrenica and Zepa. As Sands noted, Tolimir was found guilty of genocide in Zepa based on the murder of 'three local leaders'. The Trial Chamber found this was sufficient to characterize the act as a 'deliberate destruction of a limited number of persons selected for the impact their disappearance will have on the survival of the group as such'.
London barrister Blinne Ni Ghralaigh responded to the Serbian challenges of the expert statements and testimonies about genocide presented by Croatia to support its allegation that genocide had been committed in Eastern and Western Slavonia, Knin and Dalmatia. As Ni Ghralaigh noted, the allegations in Croatia's suit remain 'intact'. Serbia has admitted there was 'genocidal behavior' that could be ascribed to the JNA and other Serbian forces and that stemmed of the ethnic hatred, Ni Ghralaigh recalled. Serbia has not contested the fact that the top military and political leadership knew about the crimes at least in October 1991. Because of the evidence presented by Croatia, Ni Ghralaigh stressed, Serbia had to accept the allegations, but then proceeded to try to 'neutralize' them.
Responding to Serbia's claims about the number of missing and identified victims, Ni Ghralaigh stated that according to the information made public by the Croatian Administration of Detained and Missing Persons on 17 March 2014, 3,680 bodies were exhumed from 142 mass graves. Of this number, 3,144 persons have been identified, while 865 are still missing.
British professor Sir Keir Starmer responded to the Serbian argument that there had been no intent to destroy a group in part or as a whole. Starmer repeated the Croatian argument that when there was no explicit evidence, the genocidal intent could be inferred from 'words, acts or patterns of conduct'.
On Friday, Professor James Crawford will address the issues of jurisdiction and atribution of crimes to Serbia. Vesna Crnic-Grotic, the head of the Croatian legal team, will follow with Zagreb's closing arguments.

Lauderhill - A Lauderhill man, 22, was charged with aggravated assault Sunday after the police said he threatened two men with a handgun and fired a shot.
The man, identified as Joe Dorest of the 5700 block of Northwest 27th Court, was arrested after police found him hiding in some bushes in a field in the 5800 block of Northwest 27th Terrace, according to a police report.
Police began searching for Dorest after he allegedly used a handgun to threaten two men with whom he was arguing, the report said. One man's hand was injured when he put it up to deflect a shot and the gun discharged, the report said. The police were called, but Dorest fled before officers arrived, the report said.
At 9:30 p.m. a K-9 unit was brought in to assist police in the search and Dorset was found hiding in the bushes.
