Woods signs bag endorsement with MusclePharm
By DOUG FERGUSON
PINEHURST, N.C. (AP) Tiger Woods will have a new sponsor on his bag when he returns to competition, signing an endorsement deal with Denver-based MusclePharm Corp. that could include his own line of nutrition products.
MusclePharm, a performance and lifestyle sports nutrition company, announced on its website Wednesday that the contract includes sponsorship of his golf bag.
"We are excited to work with Tiger to bring more attention to nutritional science and how it can enhance strength and overall athletic performance, and most importantly, fuel athletes safely," said Brad Pyatt, the chairman and CEO, a former receiver for the Indianapolis Colts.
The deal starts July 1. When anyone will see the bag remains a mystery.
Woods has not played since March 9 at Doral, and he had back surgery three weeks later that so far has kept him out of the Masters and the U.S. Open. Speculation that he might return in time for the British Open has been fueled by news that Woods is able to take a fuller swing.
"That's just the start date of the contract," said Mark Steinberg, his agent at Excel Sports Management. "Yes, he is swinging more freely. Yes, he is expanding the range of his swing each day. That's a natural progression. He was never going to go from babying sand wedges 50 yards to teeing it up in competition. Because he's feeling very good, each day is a step toward an expansive swing. As soon as he's good for a number of days, and gets material reps at full-go mentality and physicality, he'll have a green light."
Woods is tournament host next week for the Quicken Loans National at Congressional. The British Open is July 17-20. Woods, who has not won a major since capturing his 14th in the 2008 U.S. Open, has never missed three straight majors.
MusclePharm replaces Fuse Science on his golf bag, which he had endorsed since November 2011. The company never gained much traction, and it was rare to see a sponsor have such prime space without any television commercials, or significant marketing campaign.
No gets more TV time than Woods. A logo on the bag rates behind the cap, shirt front and shirt sleeve or collar in exposure. MusclePharm becomes only the fifth corporate brand to occupy that space on the bag behind Titleist, Buick, AT&T and Fuse.
It's the first significant endorsement deal that Woods has signed since Fuse.
"It's a cool company," Steinberg said. "We talked to these guys at MusclePharm a couple of years and didn't have availability. The attraction is they're a company about the athlete and helping the athlete perform better. When people think about Tiger, he was one of the first athletes in the sport of golf. Not it seems that everybody is an athletes. That resonated a bit with Tiger and I."
Among other athletes endorsed by MusclePharm are San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and New York Jets receiver Eric Decker.
Steinberg said there was potential for Woods to have his own line of products with the company. He once had his own line in a former deal with Gatorade. He said Woods will be promoted in print and electronic ads, as well as through social media.
"This collaboration would be fun and authentic," he said. "And from the MusclePharm side, their feeling is Tiger is helping them reach a whole new demographic."

Sofia, Bulgaria, July 1, 2014 - Camillo Placi, the Italian head coach of the Bulgarian men's national team, has resigned, citing "personal reasons" for his decision. Assistant coach Nayden Naydenov will replace Placi for the rest of Bulgaria's 2014 FIVB Volleyball World League campaign.
Camillo Placi's resignation comes after Bulgaria's nine defeats in ten World League Pool B matches, less than two months before the start of the 2014 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship in Poland, and about fourteen months before Bulgaria hosts the 2015 CEV Volleyball European Championship - Men.
The Bulgarian Volleyball Federation has announced that a new head coach will be appointed soon and expressed its gratitude for the many years of hard work that Placi has put in both as an assistant coach and as head coach of the Bulgarian national team.
Camillo Placi also worked as assistant to the previous three head coaches of the squad: Silvano Prandi, Radostin Stoytchev and Nayden Naydenov.
Naydenov, who is taking over again at least temporarily, led the Bulgarians to the fourth place in the 2012 London Olympics. He is also the man behind Marek Union-Ivkoni Dupnitsa's success, winning three consecutive titles in Bulgaria's domestic Superliga.

Sleep Where George Soros's Daughter Hath SleptBy Bess Levin
Do you find yourself among the hordes of New York hedge fund managers that Floridians say are moving to Florida? Looking for a suitable base in the new Greenwich, Palm Beach? Maybe something not-quite-Rosensteinesque, but with a little something extra? Something presidential, perhaps?
If so, you're in luck: One New York private-equity guy who thinks Palm Beach is a great place to visit but no place to live is cashing out of a little piece of Camelot: the former home of bootlegger, insider-trader, inaugural SEC chairman, presidential and senatorial father, and all-around Renaissance man Joe Kennedy.

Clear Steve Cohen's ScheduleBy Bess Levin
Back in April 2013, Steve Cohen put his 9,000-square-foot One Beacon Court apartment on the market for $115 million, which would have represented a modest 379.16% return. In January, he dropped the price to 98 mill. Four months later, a buyer has yet to materialize and the Big Guy is pissed. Embalm someone and suspend them in formaldehyde pissed. Read more »
No one took a bite at $115 million but at 98, this thing'll practically sell itself! Read more »
Time was, you needed a bag filled with at least $10 million in unmarked twenties to buy a house in Greenwich, CT, where many a multi-billionaire hedge fund manager reside, and it's a legitimate insult to have a newspaper claim your home is a measly 14,000 square feet. Now? Thanks to the global financial crisis, job cuts, and bonuses that leave people sobbing under their desks? Sellers no longer have the luxury of standing their ground and waiting for someone to come along who appreciates their Bloomberg Terminal-shaped pool and the $50 million price tag that comes with, allowing practically anyone to buy in, and even those who have the means to spend 8-figures on a house, on the spot, no questions asked, are holding out for bargains, like common riff-raff.

President Goodluck Jonathan has bemoaned the abandonment of the Obodo-Boni Road project in Rivers State.
He noted that there were lapses in the first procurement of the project which, according to him, was awarded during former President Olusegun Obasanjo's administration, with Chief Tony Anenih as minister of works then.
The president, who spoke when he received a delegation of traditional rulers from Bonny Kingdom yesterday at the State House, Abuja, argued that since 2002 when the contract was awarded, if five kilometres of the road had been constructed every year, the project would have attained a considerable level of completion.
Jonathan said his administration had to review the project with proper procurement and design as well as cost, assuring that nothing would stop the project this time around.
"I won't want to bore you with details of the lapses in the first procurement of the Obodo-Boni Road. Why the contract didn't hold was because there were major lapses. It is almost like the story of the East-West Road that was awarded without proper design and so with time, it got stuck.
"…About the Boni road project, if the previous governments had been doing it 5km a year, by now, we would have gone far. That was during former president Olusegun Obasanjo regime when Chief Tony Anenih was minister of works", he said.
Minister of Works, Mike Onolememen, who noted that the contract was awarded in 2002 to Gitto Conzoni Ltd, said it had been terminated and re-awarded to another contractor since late last year "to pave way for the restructuring of the project".
He added: "Proposals are being made for construction to start again. About two different teams have assessed the road from the Obodo side. The proposal is right now being analysed. I want to assure the king and people of Bonny that the federal government is on the verge of re-procuring that all-important Obodo-Bonny Road, and this time around, we're going to get it right because we are already collaborating with the management of Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas whose managing director has paid me more than four visits".

Also it seems to me that there should be a way to limit the number of articles displayed. For example if you have a category with 3 articles and one with 15, you will have a very short module in some cases and an extremely long one in others (in auto mode). So it would be nice to be able to set a limit of, say, 5 articles per category.
Also there doesn't seem to be any option to display articles by date???
One major bug: though the module works well for the most part with joomfish, it fails to pick up the translation of the category, rendering it always in english no matter what language is selected. I hope this can get fixed soon and I will gladly raise my rating.
The problem probably are in Dreamhost.

Dont Mess with the NDIS on the airwaves
In addition to thousands of emails that reached the Prime Minister, State Premiers and Chief Minister in the last 24 hours, campaigners took to the media to spell out the effects of the recommendations of the Commission of Audit to people with disabilities and their families.
Among the most vocal were EAC's Fiona Anderson and WA campaigner Jo Russell who talked about what it means at the frontline of disability and family life to hear the timeline and funding of the NDIS called into question yet again. Fiona also referred to the fact that in the last quarterly review individual funding packages were actually coming down which begged the question of why there needed to be talk of capping, particularly at this early stage of the process. Click on the bottom two links to listen.

Diary of DisabilityCare Experience – Lynne Foreman
Lynne Foreman is a Geelong resident who has been one of the foremost campaigners for the NDIS in her area She is also someone who knows personally about what a difference this reform can make, having been on a waiting list for 9 years with only a modest amount of emergency support.
While visiting relatives in WA, over the last two weeks Lynne was willing to don the campaign t-shirt and talk about her experience as one of the first people in Australia to go through the DisabilityCare system and receive a support package, including a component which allowed her to access equipment and support during her holiday in WA. She is pictured above with members of the MS Outreach Society.
Lynne has Arthrogryposis (Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita) which is a muscle disorder that causes multiple joint contractures at birth. (A contracture is a limitation in the range of motion of a joint). This is how she describes it:
I was born with my legs crossed across my chest, deformed feet (my feet now are the size of a 3 year olds and I have no toes) stiff joints mainly from my hips down, on my hands I do have a few fingers which have no top joints. At the age of 49 they discovered my neck also has been fused in the 2 top vertebras from birth.
Lynne talked about her firsthand experience noting the immediate difference of DisabilityCare as a 'one stop shop' where she can get information any time she needs it as well as her main support package. She found the service timely and flexible, although some of the language in the documents was a little confusing. She particularly appreciatedfeatures such as the portal which enables her to keep track of what support she is entitled to and what she's used and how that makes the care provider accountable.
Lynne kept a diary of her experience and you can read it here.
PM hears from WA campaigners
Prime Minister Julia Gillard met a group of Every Australian Counts campaigners in Rockingham WA today and listened to their experiences of accessing disability support. With Minister Gary Gray, the member for Brand, she spent almost an hour listening to each and every person of with a disability and family members. Included in these stories was a tale of a woman who was forced to live in a nursing home as a forty year old because of lack of accomodation and how she fought her way out, families who had to reach crisis to access support, or give up jobs to manage care and incur huge financial and social consequences. Most of these stories were included in a book presented to the PM made up of personal experiences sent in by WA EAC members. You can read it here :WA & Disability The Real Story June 2013 The PM was touched when Tom Softly (pictured) presented her with a fantastic photo calendar from Down Syndrome Association WA and flowers and a brooch from one of the youngest campaigners 8 year old Denver Bull.
150 shades of grey – a very different take on the NDIS Legislation
Ever wondered what the NDIS Legislation might have in common with the infamous novel Fifty shades of Grey? Wonder no longer.
Guerilla advocacy group The Bolshy Divas have drawn some pretty interesting parallels in their submission to the Senate Committee Inquiry.
Here's a sample " …if you're looking for a tale about power – who the dominant powers are and who has the smallest voice – you've got it….and just because we're invited to make a submission – we don't have to be…well submissive. Its our lives, after all. And isnt that what disability reform is supposed to be about? Changing the balance of power?"
You can read more of this very different submission and many more from around Australia on the Senate Committee's website http://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate_Committees?url=clac_ctte/ndis/submissions.htm

AMA listens as West Australia talks about the NDIS
Thank you all so much for giving me your time and wisdom on Friday. I was humbled by your fortitude, amazed by your energy and insights and distressed by hearing some of your struggles, particularly the avoidable ones.
I hope in truth that I can adequately represent you given the diverse powers and talents I saw and heard on display. It was wonderful to learn of all the groups that you represent and all the energy and passion that you have directed into them.
Thank you for your candour. It was clear that baring your soul (and sometimes selling it) seems to be a standard expectation of people in the disability world and I appreciate your willingness to let me know the details of your conditions and those of your families. I hope I put your trust and good faith to a good purpose. That is my intention.
No doubt about the message – Lock in the NDIS NOW!
When COAG meets next week they will be in no doubt that Australians want them to lock in the NDIS now because they will see the same message in black and white as they read the heartfelt words of thousands of Australians.
A huge thank you to our campaigners from every corner of the nation who have responded to our call to send the PM and Premiers a message, with thousands continuing to pour in. They come from individuals with disabilities plus parents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends who all say they want the certainty of a guaranteed NDIS to ease the present difficulties with system and give them peace of mind for the future for themselves or their loved ones. They come from people who work in the disability sector, giving as much as they can, but who want change for all those they see distressed on a daily basis. And they come from those who may not be personally affected but are adamant that as a nation there must be action not talk in making a fair Australia for those with disabilities and that for them it is their foremost priority. As campaigner Hilary Nichols wrote so succintly "The NDIS is my number one National priority – forget the Carbon tax, the NBN or anything else. My vote will be based entirely upon the NDIS". Or as Anna Kelly said " The NDIS has to happen. I can't imagine our family's future without it".
Winter recess – time to see the pollies again: message from David Pearce OAM
You may remember me? I'm David Pearce, a Tasmanian campaigner for the NDIS.
Living with Cerebral Palsy Quadriplegia has not prevented me from being a serving Alderman on the Glenorchy City Council, or the current President of Advocacy Tasmania.
Earlier this year, I was proud to speak at the NDIS: Make it Real Rally in Hobart.
Last year, I participated in a video with my local Federal MP Andrew Wilkie MP where I demonstrated just how easy it is to lobby your Federal MP about the need for the NDIS.

Miley Cyrus Hates 7 Things About Youby Mischalova at . Comments
Well, maybe not you. But Miley Cyrus is hating 7 things about someone in her latest single, aptly titled "7 Things."
In the song, off the album that hits stores on July 22, Cyrus croons about an ex-boyfriend. It's Avril Lavigne-like in its teen angst and sample lyrics include:
"You're vain, your games, you're insecure/You love me, you like her/You make me laugh, you make me cry."
Once her new album comes out in July, Miley Cyrus will have forgotten all about the recent topless photo scandal.
But the number-one thing Miley hates about this unnamed individual? He makes her love him. That's profound.
Listen to the song NOW and let us know what you think.
i really don't like miley's song 7 things i hate about you but i love every other song she did
Hey, I just wanted to say i agree that you WERE a good role-model until you went and desided to put pics on the net. Me and my friend have pics of you on our wall and we wonder where did that miley go. I mean you an AMAZING singer but, if your just gunnah be the next britney spears then im not gunnah even listen to your music anymore. i still like you and i understand how hard to would be to be a star and lets just say alot of people have learned from you. Keep up the new songs. If i dont hear about anymore bad photos i will buy your CD by the way i still really am a great fan just PLEASE stop the pics. well stop bye.

Nice place, close to Tel Aviv
December 24, 2011
Great stay at a well equipped, newly built, updated apt. Plenty of towels, linens. Fully equipped kitchen with plenty of supplies including spices and coffee. Includes parking and walking distance to beach, restaurants and small grocer. Great balcony with view of sea. Would definitely stay there again. No complaints but not five stars because the town is nothing to speak of.

Dear David and Family~
Many thanks for the use of your lovely apartment in Bat Yam. It was such a pleasure to stay there, everything was lovely.

Hopefully we will have the opportunity to stay again soon.
Happy Chanukah,

DaVita dietitian Allison from Florida wanted to be involved in sports nutrition until she had the opportunity to learn about renal nutrition while working in a hospital. "The kidneys are such powerhouses, they actually fascinate me!" shares Allison. Today, this Michigan native is still learning more about kidneys and what they do. She's enjoying her career with DaVita because, "I am encouraged to be creative and think outside of the box. My facility administrator is right there by my side being just as crazy," says Allison.
When it comes to working with her chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis, Allison feels she makes the biggest difference in their lives by educating them about the benefits of being compliant on the renal diet and taking their medications, such as phosphorus binders. Patient compliance can be challenging,so the greatest reward for Allison is when patients start to do better because they understand why it's important. Allison has found that being easygoing and an avid listener not only helps in educating patients but also results in enjoyable interactions.
Allison's passion for kidneys and devotion to her patients show up in her wacky and creative ways of teaching. "I incorporate a skeleton (Mr. Happy Bones) whenever I can to remind my patients to take their phosphorus binders and why. Everyone likes happy bones!" In fact, Allison says her patients have started calling her "Bones." "I have skeletons on my lab coat to remind patients that their bones are directly affected by their medication and diet compliance. The control is in their hands."
For dialysis patients needing some extra protein in their renal diet, Allison shares her recipe for High Protein Piña Colada. It's a refreshing, tropical flavor that's quick and easy to prepare. Enjoy this snack anytime, especially in the summertime when you need something to help keep your cool.

St. Angela's hits 100 in Mattapan Square

Konpa music, a "dress to impress" contest, and a combination of Caribbean and Haitian foods are not typical components of a church get-together. Then again, St. Angela's Parish in Mattapan is no ordinary church, hosting three different masses on Sunday, with a choice of French, English and Kreyol. Read more

Examination of Possible "Buy-In" by Garrett AiResearch
PSAD-77-73: Published: Feb 16, 1977. Publicly Released: Sep 24, 1979.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
The AiResearch Division of the Garrett Corporation's practice of "buying-in" on contracts for the production of auxiliary power units was investigated. The investigation was limited to two subcontractors between Garrett and McDonnell Douglas Corporation under the F-15 contract.
Garrett submitted bids lower than their estimated costs on the F-15 subcontract. Garrett admitted making what it referred to as a $3 million "investment" in the F-15 program. Whether Garrett has followed a consistent pattern of buy-ins cannot be determined by examining two subcontracts, but a consistent pattern can be inferred from statements Garrett made in court affadavits. McDonnell officials were aware that Garrett's price was less than expected costs and suspected that Garrett was investing in the program. It is evident that McDonnell recognizes the investment concept. Before the initial procurement of the F-15 components involved in this investigation, competitive bids were solicited from many suppliers. The selection of Garrett was based on technical superiority as well as lower prices. (RRS)

Michigan State claws back, hangs on to beat Iowa, 59-56
Updated On: Mar 15 2013 11:07:51 PM EDT
Adreian Payne had 18 points and 10 rebounds, leading No. 8 Michigan State to a rugged 59-56 victory over Iowa in the Big Ten quarterfinals on Friday night.
Keith Appling and Gary Harris had 13 points apiece for the Spartans (25-7), who trailed by 12 midway through the second half. They advance to play Ohio State in the next round in a rematch of last season's tournament championship, won by Michigan State.
Iowa (21-12) was oh so close to an upset victory that could have cemented a spot in the field for next week's NCAA tournament. Instead, the Hawkeyes will have to sweat out a nervous Selection Sunday.
Mike Gesell led the way with nine points for the Hawkeyes, who had no players score in double figures.

Book Description:The original Lotus Seven was the product of pure engineering genius. Forty years on, it continues to encapsulate the Lotus founder's ideals for an affordable sports racer: it makes few compromises, yet is equally at home on the road as on the track and it can be built by a mechanical novice. This book chronicles the saga of the Lotus Seven including the Series 2 and 3 during the 1960s - when it won fame in The Prisoner TV series. Caterham continues to build the Super Seven and John Tipler shows how the various structural components of the car are manufactured, and interviews key figures in the Seven's evolution.

Codename: Bossu / Bossun / Akashi-san / Akashi-sama / Kuroyuki-san
» Rank: Expert
» Path: Neutral
» Gender: Male
» Age: 18

Akashi has a special power that he was born with. He is able to create sharp, lethal weapons using his blood (which is why he usually keeps his bandages bloody). The only drawback to his power is that is destroys a fair amount of his stamina and strength in order to do this. So far, he has not been able to use it, and this would be used as a last resort. He is also able to cover his sword with his blood, in order to make his Katana sharper, stronger, and much more lethal.
His primary weapon of choice is the Katana. He usually carries it around everywhere, unless he is certain he won't need it.
He's obviously not gonna bring it around to the grocery store.He used to have it covered in bandages when it's not in use, but he's stopped with that habit. However, he might do it from time to time.
Akashi only uses his Katana in major fights and/or when he begins to feel cornered. Even if he enjoys using his Katana, he also has a tremendously liking for fighting with his fists alone. Akashi's very flexible when fighting with either his fists or Katana, but he is much more suited for close range fights and facing his opponent straight on. Even if he usually just wants to get a fight over with, he won't charge without thinking about his actions, of course.
Unless he's fighting his rival, Azami. He usually just attacks her without thinking, since she sometimes runs away whenever he wants to fight her.
Cold || Ruthless || Rash || Hot-tempered || Easily Irritated || Always itching for a Fight || Somewhat Restless || A bit of a Tsundere || Caring only with his members
Akashi is a Japanese High School Student who has always been seen as a dangerous delinquent at school. He is usually very brutal towards anyone he meets and he is not the friendliest person to talk to. Chances are, he will most likely ignore you if you even dare talk to him. Even if you are the most prestigious student or most powerful individual in the world, he wouldn't even give a fuck if he spit at your face. Status, money, and power mean nothing to him.
He can be very rude. Once you start a fight with him, he will make sure he ends it. Even if you plead for mercy and beg for your life, if killing someone is the only way to end the fight, he won't hesitate to murder. However, he usually tries to avoid pointless killings. He may enjoy pointless fights, but he sure despises pointless murders. Fights should always be finished in his eyes and there must always be a victor. For him, there are no draws. You either win, or you either lose. You can't have either. Akashi usually thinks as 'draws' as mere 'pauses' in a fight. That way he can continue to fight people later if they have unfinished business to attend to.
He doesn't have any close friends at school due to his appearance and the way he never smiles. He always looks irritated, pissed off, and serious most of the time. Akashi has difficulty smiling with other people that aren't his Alliance members. He's pretty antisocial and he's usually terrible at getting along with others. He is always up for a fight at school and always gets into a lot of trouble. Most of the guys at his school love to pick fights with him, because he knows that he won't back down.
All the students of his school are still amazed that he hasn't been expelled yet for causing the school so much trouble. It was even rumored that he had threatened to kill the teachers and burn down the school, in order from getting kicked out. The reality, however, is that he could care less. He usually ditches school whenever he wants, and when he does actually go to class, he's either daydreaming, sleeping, or picking fights in the school yard.
Although he may become very violent, he is actually pretty calm... even if you'll usually hear him swearing and cussing other people out. He gets very disgusted by girls who show a deep affection towards him and the result of it has always ended in some form of violence. Due to his excessive fights, and his inability to say no to a cheap thrill, he is always getting hurt and covers all his injuries in bandages. Usually, he only ends up changing his bandages when they become completely covered with a dark crimson blood or if it begins to irritate him during a fight.
He prefers to have his Gakuran and part of his red shirt unbuttoned, because it allows him to move around more. And because he doesn't give a fuck about the dress code.
When Akashi discovered about the Tatakai Club, he was actually excited that such a club even existed in Japan, and he began to make his own alliance. He called it the Houtai Alliance, since he was always covered in bandages and he viewed them as a form of strength. If you didn't have bandages, not even a bruise, you weren't tough enough.
He began to accept members that he felt were up to the task and if they had any major injuries, they could join, since it showed him that they could withstand a brutal fight. However, due to the members injuries being too severe, they began to die quickly off once they got into fights with other elite alliances. Since then, he began to only accept members with minor injuries.
Although he seems like a rude and abusive character, he would do anything to help out his teammates, and he is very good at cooperating with them. He respects and trusts them to the fullest. Some of the members of his Alliance have even reported that he has a very kind heart, and has even shown them some type of affection - even if he's very strict.
Akashi has been known to accept very puppy-like and/or loyal teammates. It's a bit of a preference to him.
Akashi used to be a much happier kid during his Childhood, however, that all changed when his mother brutally murdered his own father before his very eyes.
Back when he was 6, he remembered his father being extremely tired from work. He worked for a very powerful and well-known company that he was usually out very late, so Akashi treasured whenever his father could play with him. Even just small talk about what he did at school made him happy. He used to doodle pictures for his father, just so he had something to smile for when he returned from his long day at work.
During Golden Week, he remembered that his company gave him 2 days off for bringing much of the company's sucess over the years. Little Akashi didn't think it was fair that they only gave him 2 days off when he worked hard every day of the year, but he was happy he could spend more time with him, nonetheless. His mother, his father and himself finally got to eat together at the table. He almost didn't want to go to sleep when it was time to go to bed, but he did. Only to be awakened by some slight noises that were coming from the kitchen.
He got up and his eyes widened as he witnessed his own mother... stabbing his father in the chest repeatedly. His dad tried to yell and kick her off, but she had put her hand inside his mouth, just so he couldn't. Even if he was biting on her hand, practically trying to chew it off her, she remained calm as she stabbed his legs, his hands, his genitals, his eyes, before she slit his throat. She knew Akashi was there, but she didn't stop for him.
The floor was dripping with blood. It almost looked like his father took a blood bath. Akashi was terrified. He was very scared, but he was too paralyzed to move. He just... froze. His mom almost laughed at the thought, and she could only help but smirk as he looked helplessly as she murdered her own husband. She proceeded to behead Akashi's father with her blood-stained knife. Taking his father's bodyless head as she held it to her eye level and kissed him, almost as if he were still alive.
" I love your father very much, Aka-chan! " She said in a happy, yet sinister way as she tossed away the head and walked closer to Akashi; holding him in a tight embrace.
" I'm sorry you had to see that. But your father was cheating on me with another woman. This was the only way to teach him a lesson. I still love him very much. " She tried to explain to Akashi while giving him a smile... almost as if she was trying to say that what she did was for justice.
In reality, however, her true intentions were her selfishness and greed. She had only killed Akashi's Father in order to inherit all of his wealth. No one suspected a thing. She chopped off her own hand, claiming that her husband tried to murder her instead, and it was only self-defence. That lying cunt.
At that instant is when his hatred for women began to ignite, knowing that they were only selfish beasts that did things for their own benefit, instead of everyone else's. Akashi was very disturbed by the incident, that when he went to school the next day, he had almost stabbed a girl at his school and was labeled as a psychotic child. Eventually... he ended up killing his mother, one month after turning 15. He could still remember the smile she put on her face when he was about to finish her off. Disgusting.
When he turned 18, he was able to inherit all the money from his parents, but he eventually ended up burning it all, claiming that it was all useless to him.

Wild Berry is the low calorie lineup of the FRS lineup. There's a strong aroma to the product, which is pretty much on par with what's inside the can. Specifically, tart fruit flavor that finishes with a vitamin like flavor and leaves behind a bit of a sweetener (sucralose) aftertaste. Overall, Wild Berry is drinkable, but it drinks much more like a vitamin supplement than a traditional energy drink. We'd probably stick with one of the other, non sucralose sweetened flavors of this line.

Shopping for a brokerage account is very unlike choosing a bank.
People often choose a bank based primarily on a convenient location. Since banks are tightly regulated, and all provide essentially the same services, convenience can be the deciding factor.
There's a lot more to consider when opening a brokerage account however, since the transactions you enter into with investments will be both more complicated and more diverse.
Consider the Following When Opening a Brokerage Account
Investment choices
How important investment choice is to you will depend on what you intend to do with the account.
For the most part, you'll want a brokerage account that has the widest investment choices available. That will include stocks – both foreign and domestic – mutual funds, ETF's, options, REITs, bonds and other debt securities, and even commodities. You'll also want the investment choices within each asset class to also be as wide as possible.
But if you plan to maintain the account for a very specific purpose, you may be more interested in a specialized account.

Last Is More: The Miesian Lesson
The following is an excerpt from Last Is More: Mies, IBM and the Transformation of Chicago. The Langham Hospitality Group commissioned architectural photojournalists Robert Sharoff and William Zbaren to document the transformation of eminent architect Mies van der Rohe's IBM Building — the last skyscraper he designed — into The Langham, Chicago. In this chapter, Sharoff and Zbaren provide a more detailed look into the period between 1965 and 1975, when Mies's influence on Chicago's skyline was at its most pervasive.
The construction of the IBM Building occurred midway through a legendary period in Chicago architecture—the decadelong building boom between 1965 and 1975, when Mies's influence on the city's skyline was at its most pervasive.
During these years, numerous Miesian structures by firms such as Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, C. F. Murphy Associates, and Loebl, Schlossman & Bennett were erected, and the city's reputation as the founder of American modernism was finally and firmly established. The best of those buildings continue to dominate the skyline.
Invisible Cities and the Curtain Wall: The Last Remnant of Modernism
Few of the architectural principles developed in the 20th century have been as widely accepted as the curtain wall, with the technology going from an implied feature of Le Corbusier's Five Points of Architecture to the go-to facade treatment of architects worldwide. In this article, originally published on Australian Design Review as "Invisible Cities – The Last Remnant of Modernism," Annabel Koeck argues that the curtain wall, initially prized for its glassy transparency, is now making buildings and even entire cities invisible thanks to its sheer ubiquity – at the expense of architectural expression.
Norwegian architects Snøhetta, based between Oslo and New York, designed the glass structure for the The National September 11 Memorial entry pavilion, which appears camouflaged against the backdrop of neighbouring glass curtain walls that define the New York skyline. Admittedly, Snøhetta's pavilion was conceived by a very different brief, one defined by timidity and subtlety; yet paradoxically it was the curtain wall that facilitated this. Looking over the South Pool towards an array of glazed elevations that dominate the skyline it is ironic that a Modernist technique – the curtain wall – could now spell the end for architectural diversity in cities.
Luftwerk to Illuminate Mies' Farnsworth House this Weekend
Starting tomorrow (October 17), Chicago-based artists Petra Bachmaier and Sean Gallero of Luftwerk will be transforming Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House into a "canvas of light and sound" with the digital installation, INsite. "An exploration of the philosophy of Mies through light," INsite will offer an entirely new nighttime experience at the Plano residence that highlights the architecture's famed characteristics with an interactive light show pulsating to the original "sonic exploration" of Owen Clay Condon.

David Chipperfield's "Sticks and Stones" Toys with Van Der Rohe's Bones in Berlin
In Berlin, Mies van der Rohe's Neue Nationalgalerie has begun a new phase today with the opening of David Chipperfield's intervention, a prologue to the imminent restoration which the famed British architect is about to undertake. Completed in 1968, the gallery was Mies' last project and his final masterpiece; for nearly fifty years, nobody dared to touch it – until now. Marking this event is a large, site-specific installation, created by Chipperfield as an attempt to engage Mies in a spatial experiment (or perhaps a last, apologetic tribute to the 20th century master) moments before he is about to embark on a mission which will, inevitably, transform Mies' ultimate legacy.
The Berlage Archive: Elia Zenghelis (2001)
In this 2001 lecture titled "Architecture is Propaganda," seminal architect, educator, and co-founder of OMA Elia Zenghelis discusses the development of ideologies that shape architectural discourse vis-a-vis architectural education. Arguing that architectural education is motivated by religious, socio-political, and economic principles, Zenghelis makes the case that the war-torn 20th century has been an era of upheaval and conflict, resulting in the loss of historical context and a confused state for artists and architects. Proposing the idea that architecture is a servant of power, and is thus intrinsically intertwined with political and societal trends, Zenghelis urges a return to a contextualized understanding of architectural history in order for contemporary architects to develop a sensitive and nuanced approach to their practice.
Discussing his relationships and collaborations with former students and colleagues Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, and Peter Eisenman, as well as the political and architectural legacy of such giants as Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe, Elia Zenghelis provides a compelling conversation about the inherent role of architecture in political discourse.

Interview: Phyllis Lambert on Winning the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement
"Architects make architecture; Phyllis Lambert made architects," Rem Koolhaas said of his decision to award Phyllis Lambert with this year's Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the Venice Biennale. In an interview published on iconeye.com, the website for Icon Magazine, the 87-year-old founding director of the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) discusses her career, Mies van der Rohe, and the state of contemporary architecture with the editor of Icon, Christopher Turner. Read on to learn about her influential life in architecture.
Congratulations on your Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement. How did you learn that you'd been awarded the honour?
Thank you very much. I got a phone call from the curator, Rem Koolhaas, telling me and I had to wait for weeks as it went before the board, unable to tell anybody – then I got an official letter. Isn't it wonderful?
What Can Be Learnt From The Smithsons' "New Brutalism" In 2014?
Sheffield born Alison Gill, later to be known as Alison Smithson, was one half of one of the most influential Brutalist architectural partnerships in history. On the day that she would be celebrating her 86th birthday we take a look at how the impact of her and Peter Smithson's architecture still resonates well into the 21st century, most notably in the British Pavilion at this year's Venice Biennale. With London's Robin Hood Gardens, one of their most well known and large scale social housing projects, facing imminent demolition how might their style, hailed by Reyner Banham in 1955 as the "new brutalism", hold the key for future housing projects?
Luftwerk Launches Kickstarter Campaign to Transform Mies' Farnsworth House into Visual Spectacular
The creative minds behind Luftwerk have turned to Kickstarter to crowdfund a project that would transform Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House into an immersive light show. Similar to their installation at Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater residence in 2011, artistic duo Petra Bachmaier and Sean Gallero plan to illuminate the "structural minimalism and transparency" of the house in a way that would offer a new perspective of the modern masterpiece.
Check out a video of the proposed light show and Luftwerk's work at Fallingwater, after the break…
Hydraulic Stilts Considered to Protect Farnsworth House
In recent years, Mies van der Rohe's famous glass-walled Farnsworth House has been under a grave threat from flooding by the Fox River which runs right past it. In the past 18 years, the house has been flooded three times, causing thousands of dollars worth of damage, and now its owners the National Trust for Historic Preservation are considering plans for a permanent solution – among which is a plan to install hydraulic stilts which would lift the entire house out of harm's way in the event of a flood.

Light Matters: Richard Kelly, The Unsung Master Behind Modern Architecture's Greatest Buildings
Richard Kelly illuminated some of the twentieth century's most iconic buildings: the Glass House, Seagram Building and Kimbell Art Museum, to name a few. His design strategy was surprisingly simple, but extremely successful.
Lighting for architecture has been and still often is dominated by an engineering viewpoint, resigned to determining sufficient illuminance levels for a safe and efficient working environment. With a background in stage lighting, Kelly introduced a scenographic perspective for architectural lighting. His point of view might look self-evident to today's architectural community, but it was revolutionary for his time and has strongly influenced modern architecture.

Mies, the Modernist Man of Letters
This review of Detlef Mertins' book "Mies" – by Thomas de Monchaux - originally appeared in Metropolis Magazine as "Mies Reconsidered". According to de Monchaux, Mertins reveals the modernist master as a voracious reader who interpreted a wide variety of influences to arrive at his stripped-down style.
The quintessential page of the 528 that make up Detlef Mertins's monumental new monograph on Ludwig Mies van der Rohe—entitled simply Mies (Phaidon, 2014)—is 155. There, you will find a reproduction, a page within a page, of page 64 of Romano Guardini's 1927 book Letters from Lake Como—a book about modernity and human subjectivity—with Mies's own annotations penciled in the margins, in a surprisingly ornate and delicate hand.
And there, you will find Mertins's notes on Mies's notes on Guardini: "Of all the books in Mies's library, Guardini's Letters is the most heavily marked. Mies highlighted passage after passage with bold and rapid margin strokes and wrote key words diagonally and in large script across the first pages of many of the chapters: Haltung (stance), Erkenntnis (knowledge), Macht (power)." Mertins's vivid marginality, his attention to the divine details along edges, recalls the experience of reading the Talmud, that commentary on Jewish law and scripture in which, by marking and emending earlier readers' marks and emendations, generations of rabbis enacted an intimate conversation across time and space.
Read on for more insight into Mies' influences.
Infographic: The Bauhaus, Where Form Follows Function
UPDATE: In honor of the 81st anniversary of the day the Bauhaus closed in 1933, we're re-publishing this popular infographic, which was originally published April 16th, 2012.
From the "starchitect" to "architecture for the 99%," we are witnessing a shift of focus in the field of architecture. However, it's in the education system where these ideas really take root and grow. This sea change inspired us to explore past movements, influenced by economic shifts, war and the introduction of new technologies, and take a closer look at the bauhaus movement.
Often associated with being anti-industrial, the Arts and Crafts Movement had dominated the field before the start of the Bauhaus in 1919. The Bauhaus' focus was to merge design with industry, providing well designed products for the many.
The Bauhaus not only impacted design and architecture on an international level, but also revolutionized the way design schools conceptualize education as a means of imparting an integrated design approach where form follows function.
Happy Birthday Mies Van der Rohe!
A big happy birthday goes out to Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969), who would have turned 128 years old today. Mies, who studied under influential figures such as Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier, helped to develop the most enduring architectural style of the 20th Century: modernism.
Among his most famous accomplishments are his seminal Barcelona Pavilion; his work as the head of The Bauhaus school; and, after the Nazi ascension in Germany forced him to emigrate, his leadership at the Illinois Institute of Technology. During his 20 years at IIT, Mies developed what became known as 'the second Chicago school of architecture', a style of simplified, rectilinear high-rise buildings exemplified by projects such as 860-880 Lakeshore Drive and the Seagram Building. Mies's minimalist style proved very popular; his famous aphorism 'less is more' is still widely used, even by those who are unaware of its origins. All of this makes him one of the most influential architects of the modernist movement and the 20th century.
To celebrate him we have changed our logo to a Mies doodle (above) and have rounded up our great Mies coverage of the past. See the extensive list after the break!
Mecanoo, Martinez + Johnson Selected to Redesign Mies' MLK Memorial Library
Washington D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray has named Mecanoo architecten and Martinez + Johnson Architecture winners of a competition to reinvent Mies van der Rohe's Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library – the only library and D.C. building ever designed by the legendary architect.

(Updates with Medicare decision, late trading throughout.)
June 30 (Bloomberg) -- Trading of put options on Dendreon Corp., the drugmaker whose only product is Provenge, rose to a seven-month high before Medicare approved paying for the prostate cancer treatment.
Almost 19,000 contracts giving the right to sell the stock changed hands as of 4 p.m. in New York, 10 times the four-week average, as the shares slumped 2.6 percent to $39.44. They gained 1.8 percent to $40.14 as of 4:14 p.m. in late trading after the approval announcement. The most-active contracts were July $38 puts, which accounted for almost a third of put trades. The shares haven't closed below $38 since May 17.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services issued a final ruling today saying the $93,000 treatment is "reasonable and necessary" for men with advanced, prostate tumors resistant to hormone therapy who have minimal or no symptoms. The decision is in line with prescribing information for the drug approved in April 2010. Dendreon, based in Seattle, may generate sales of $2.1 billion in 2014, according to the average estimate of four analysts surveyed by Bloomberg.
"Any kind of uncertainty like that will drive up interest in options," said Caitlin Duffy, an options analyst at Greenwich, Connecticut-based Interactive Brokers Group Inc. "There's a lot of fresh positioning and a lot of buying indicating some need for protection or outright bearish outlook in the short term."
