Lenny White: Lenny White Live from '97
Lenny White Live from '97 captures the drummer leading a first-call cast of electric and fusion jazz players through a thoroughly magical night during White's Japanese tour in support of his two previous studio albums, Present Tense (HipBop, 1995) and Renderers of Spirit (HipBop Essense, 1996). "The personnel alone is a hint at the quality of music," wrote White's funk co-conspirator and bassist Victor Bailey, who also played in Weather Report. His point is well taken: While White and Bailey stoke up the rhythm engines, the frontline features White's fellow Miles alumni Bennie Maupin (saxophones) and Foley (lead bass), synthesizer player Donald Blackman (from White's Twennynine band), pianist Patrice Rushen and trumpeter-vocalist Mark Ledford (who suffered a fatal heart attack in November 2004).
From the opening version of "Whew! What a Dream" through the encore version which closes this set, White rocks such big fat hard bass and snare drum sounds that everything he plays sounds funkya sound he shares with John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, who is otherwise a completely different type of drummer. Two bassistsBailey on rhythm, Foley on lead plus White's heavy thumping transform "Dark" into a fire-breathing stomping dragon of psychedelic funk, and make Live from '97 a deliciously bottom-heavy set.
But it's more than a raging funk monster. "East St. Louis," six minutes on Present Tense, expands to more than twenty here. After a duet with Bailey, White slips the band into a jazzy groove, which Ledford's trumpet stabs and gores like one of St. Louis' most famous homegrown talents, Miles Davis. "Wolfbane" adds multiple, unison horns to a frantic but colorful fusion melody, and brings the house down with White's closing solo, which sounds like Bonham and Buddy Rich simultaneously discovering the same style.
Patrice Rushen's magnificent playingin "Whew!," Bailey's "Pic Pocket" and "Wolfbane"was an absolute revelation for me. I knew Rushen is a great musician; I did not know that she is a great jazz musician.
"My biggest impression of this great record is that while you may have heard all of us before, you've never heard us sound exactly like this. That's chemistry," Bailey's notes continue. "This is a great example of something Lenny and I discuss often, which is FUSION. This is our fusion. Not a million notes, not showing off how much chops we have, but 'fusing' our jazz knowledge and contemporary music knowledge together to create GREAT MUSIC."
"Many special musical moments are only memories for those fortunate enough to have witnessed the live event," wrote White. "We all thought this was special and now we share it with you."
Track Listing: Whew! What a Dream; East St. Louis; Pic Pocket; Dark; Wolfbane; Whew! What a Dream (alternate).
Personnel: Lenny White: drums; Mark Ledford: trumpet; Bennie Maupin: saxophones; Foley: lead bass; Patrice Rushen: keyboards; Donald Blackman: keyboards; Victor Bailey: rhythm bass.

The Chicago Bears came up huge this weekend in a must-win game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in London.
The Bears already have three losses in the NFC and will most likely need to have the edge in a tiebreaker to make the playoffs.
I do not think there is any question the Packers are going to dethrone the Bears as NFC North champions.
As a result, Chicago will need to get in the playoffs as a wild card team.
It is great the Bears have beaten the Atlanta Falcons and now the Tampa Bay Bucs, because those are two teams who will be contenders for wild card positions as well.
In order to do make the playoffs, the Bears are going to need an 11-5 record to get in outright or a 10-6 record to get in with help from other teams.
Which means the Bears will need to finish the season 7-2 to solidify a spot in the playoffs.
Here is a look at how I think the NFC North will look at the end of the season.

I don't like the idea that a clone is any lesser than the original. Plus I wouldn't see any benefit to it other than ******* myself, because I would think the exact same things that I would, and I wouldn't be willing to do anything I didn't want to, even if trading off the bad things.
#79 to #75 - techketzer (12/13/2012) [-]
A clone is not lesser than the original in any way; also having the same set of genes does not provide you with an identical individual at all.
#84 to #79 - demandsgayversion (12/13/2012) [-]
If it's a pure 1-1 clone of your entire matter makeup, that's what I mean. Not realistic cloning where you just make a baby or something.

My point is that a 1-1 clone would be useful only for *******, but since it IS you, it shouldn't be treated like anything lesser, i.e. gladiator fights.
#148 to #94 - creepyunclebob (12/14/2012) [-]
If I woke up one day and I was a clone of myself set to go into a gladiator battle, I would totally fight to the death. When am I going to get a chance to fight to the death?

I agree.

Two weeks ago, there was a report that an NFL scout and veteran team executive were unimpressed with quarterback Matt Barkley. The former USC standout responded by reiterating his commitment to football, sentiments echoed by his college coach, Lane Kiffin. The takeaway wasn't about Barkley's potential as an NFL quarterback but that, at this time of year, obfuscation rules.
Could Matt Barkley Surpass Geno Smith as Best QB in Draft Class?

On the Success of Network Topology Inference Using a Markov Random Walk Model for Nested Routing Policies
Network topology inference is a topic of ongoing interest, as researchers continue to try to identify the topology of the internet, other networks, and the people own networks for maintenance purposes. In this paper, the authors explain why a simple algorithm based on network co-occurrence measurements and a Markov random walk model for routing enables perfect topology reconstruction, despite the seeming model mismatch to real network routing. They show that topology measurement and inference based on this model allows detection of routing bugs, mis-configuration, or even routers that deliberately misreport routing data.

Behind FIFA's talk, football has become pork-barrel politics
Published 03/06/2014 | 02:30
WHEN FIFA is not forcing outrageous construction bills on developing countries in return for the right to stage the World Cup, bribes are allegedly being offered to small countries so that immensely rich ones can buy football's biggest tournament.
Brazil, where the World Cup kicks off on Thursday week, is groaning under the weight of FIFA's demands on stadiums and infrastructure, as South Africa did four years ago. Qatar, on the other hand, is spending billions of dollars on a future-proofing project that was secured, according to overwhelming evidence, by corrupt payments to African nations to swing the 2022 vote away from Australia and America.
This unholy combination – gigantism and ballot rigging – has wrecked the governing body's credibility, with potentially disastrous consequences for the world's favourite game.
Across the planet this week, fans of 32 teams are fantasising about a carnival in a country that expresses the game's most joyous features. The return of the event to Brazil for the first time since 1950 is a homecoming for the trophy. Fifa's failure to prevent greed sweeping through its ranks threatens to wipe out the love we feel for World Cups, which, at their best, can be unifying and inspiring spectacles.
That special magic is under threat. The Qatar World Cup started out as a farce: 50C temperatures in an oil-rich state with virtually no football culture and repressive laws. Now it is a scandal.
The starting point is that the 2022 'vote', such as it was, must be annulled.
Unless similar evidence emerges of skulduggery in Russia's victory in the 2018 bidding race, Vladimir Putin's World Cup must be disentangled from the 2022 vote, even though the two decisions were taken together, and therefore overlapped.
If these allegations stand up, there is now no moral or legal basis for abiding by a World Cup in Qatar eight years from now. Nor can FIFA carry on its present form. This artificial pushing together of the regions of the world in a Swiss tax haven has led to too many carve-ups and too little transparency and accountability. The supra-continental formula no longer works. Football needs a global law-making body and it needs worldwide tournaments. But it has no need of cash stuffed in bags, slush funds, inspection visits that encourage bungs and secret ballots by executive committees.
Behind FIFA's rhetoric about spreading (and loving) the game, football has become pork-barrel politics: a vast deal-making factory with too many opportunities for panjandrums to fill their sponsored boots.
A disaster for African football – to which most of Mohamed bin Hammam's slush fund apparently went – the Qatar scandal is not one the richer countries can feel smug about. Before the 2018 vote, which England hoped to win, the English Football Association denounced media scrutiny of FIFA bribery as "unpatriotic" and wrote to their "friends" in Switzerland to apologise for the kerfuffle around a Panorama expose.
For too long the FA has talked of "building bridges" with FIFA, which has always disliked the "arrogant" English, with their mother country smugness.
This amounts to looking the other way. On the eve of the 2018-2022 vote, Andy Anson, one of leaders of England's bid, dismissed the Panorama evidence as "sensationalist". Some of the same people who wheeled out David Cameron and Prince William in support of the bid are the ones now crying foul.
By the same token France, the UEFA president Michel Platini's country, has benefited from vast Qatari investment in Paris St Germain, a previously under-achieving club transformed into a European superpower.
Anyone who stands up to FIFA is treated as a crank or an enemy of football.
FIFA is led by Sepp Blatter and his recent admission that awarding a World Cup to Qatar had been a "mistake" suggested that he knew the full extent of Bin Hammam's lobbying was about to be exposed.
Michael Garcia, a New York lawyer appointed in 2012 to investigate Qatar's win, is said to have been a long way short of completing his enquiries before this latest tide of filth washed up at FIFA's door. There is clear evidence that Garcia has been heavily obstructed along the way.
In every public statement, the fiesta about to get under way is called the 'FIFA World Cup'. It is not the FIFA World Cup. It is everyone's World Cup
It has been stolen by a ruined global so-called "governing body".
But they should realise: the world will not applaud a lie. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

GUYMON, Okla. - Organizers are looking for interested parties to blow into town Thursday for the Panhandle Region Wind Energy Conference at the Texas County Activities Center, 12th and Sunset streets in Guymon.
The conference is sponsored by the Panhandle Regional Economic Development Coalition, Inc. in cooperation with Xcel Energy.
"We've got a lot of interest in wind power up this way, so we thought we as an economic development organization could facilitate the conference," said Sam Cartwright, PREDCI executive director.
In addition, Cartwright said the Golden Spread's bountiful supply of wind makes the area a natural for wind power.
Wind power could propel tremendous benefits for landowners, he said.
"I'm looking at (wind power) as an alternative crop for producers," Cartwright said.
So far, Cartwright said close to 100 have registered for the conference.
Cartwright stressed that those interested from states surrounding Oklahoma are welcome to attend the conference.
"It's a regional conference; we've got people coming from Colorado," he said. "My understanding is that many that have registered are landowners or representatives of landowners."
Registration begins at 7:30 a.m.
The program begins at 8:30 a.m. and continues until 3 p.m.
Speakers will include Steve Jones of Xcel Energy, Tim Hughes of the Oklahoma Wind Power Initiative, Wayne Walker of Zilkha Renewable Energy, Walt Hornaday of Cielo Wind Power, a look at the future by Hughes, and a landowner's perspective from Greg Adams of the Adams Ranch in Buffalo.
Cost is $20 and includes a lunch catered by Kim's Ribs. To register, call PREDCI at (580) 338-8500.

Great gelding for sale. 15.3 chestnut registered quarter horse (looks more like an appendix) located in Cumming Georgia. Homeboy is jumping crossrails and small verticals and working on his flying changes. He's lovely on trails and has been ridden by children.

RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks fans got a peek at what Percy Harvin can do with his 58-yard kickoff return against Minnesota and his 17-yard fingertip catch to keep a touchdown drive alive.
Now that Harvin is ready to go full speed, what can fans expect to see?
"We're not changing the offense," coach Pete Carroll said. "I told Percy that the first night I talked to him. I told him we're not going to change because you're coming to our team. We're just going to add you in and hope you can be a factor to help us, which he's going to be.''
Seattle receiver Golden Tate said Harvin "adds another dimension for us," and quarterback Russell Wilson said that because defenses have to account for Harvin's speed, things will open things up for the other receivers.
Harvin's presence may have been a factor on Doug Baldwin's 19-yard touchdown catch against Minnesota, causing one safety to pull up and give Wilson just enough room to find Baldwin in the back corner of the end zone.
"I didn't notice it at all," Carroll said. "I don't think [the Vikings] did anything different. He only played a handful of plays, but it'll happen when he's more of a factor."
Carroll said the New Orleans game on Dec. 2 will be the first time the coaches make Harvin a significant part of the offensive game plan.
"He'll play a regular amount as we go," Carroll said. "He won't play every play. We're going to still rotate our guys. He's going to just fit in. We'll put him in the rotation. We'll play him with the knowledge that he's definitely there and ready to go, and we won't have to hold back and count plays and stuff like that."
The Seahawks have a lot of weapons on offense without Harvin. With him, the others likely will look even better.
"There's no question, he's a fantastic player," Carroll said. "We love the way they're all playing [on offense], and he'll just be another issue. It'll be obvious that he's out there. He's that good of a player."

The 2009 World Series of Poker has finally ended and we have a new champion: Joe Cada. He becomes the WSOP's youngest winner ever at the age of 21.
Now, anytime someone that young wins something like this, people are going to complain that luck had a lot to do with it. That's not always the most fair assumption to make, but in this case it's true.
Cada was on the right end of bad beat after bad beat in the finals, but hey, it's better to be lucky than good, right?
I would venture a guess that everyone in this slideshow would agree with that sentiment. In honor of Mr. Cada's victory, here are the 10 worst beats in poker history.

Olympian's bikini shoot hits mark
- From: The Courier-Mail
- June 11, 2012
A SEXY shooter posing for a men's magazine in a bikini while carrying a rifle has seen accusations of double standards levelled at Australia's Olympic chiefs.
Lauryn Mark's decision to strip down for Zoo Weekly magazine has highlighted the plight of swimmers Nick D'Arcy and Kenrick Monk, who have been banned from London Olympics closing ceremony celebrations.
The Australian Olympic Committee said they would not stop Mrs Mark's photo shoot tomorrow.
The wife of gold-medal winning shooter Russell Mark, is representing Australia in skeet shooting.
She finished fourth in Athens and has three Commonwealth gold medals.
AOC spokesman Mike Tancred said a gun was her tool of trade.
"She treats it with the ultimate respect," he said. "I don't think you could compare her to two swimmers doing a Chopper Read impersonation in a gun shop."

Both avid foodies, Mary and Cary Zapatka opened the Square Onion in January 2003. Daily, you can find Mary and Cary in the kitchen of the Square Onion whipping up specials or prepping for catering events. They are an integral part in bringing the fresh, in-house-made taste to every Square Onion creation. Cary was born and raised in Marietta, Georgia and moved to the Lowcountry in 1996 where he honed his culinary skills at the Boathouse Restaurant. Mary grew up in Greenville, South Carolina and moved to Charleston in 1985. She is a graduate of the College of Charleston and has always been active in Charleston's food and beverage industry. She has worked at such fine establishments as Magnolias and Cypress.
Together, they serve up gourmet sandwiches, soups and salads, take-and-bake casseroles, daily dinner entrees, desserts, a variety of dips and spreads and a unique beer and wine selection. They can also bring the delicious taste of Square Onion to your next event with their catering options. They're a local, culinary destination in the heart of the Lowcountry with something for everyone.
And while fresh, local, quality food inspires the couple, so does charitable giving.
They truly think outside the box, if you will, and support what they call "Inspirational Partners."
Daisy's Place Retriever Rescue is one such partner. The organization is dedicated to saving and finding loving homes for Retrievers (and Retriever mixes) six years and older. To learn more, visit www.daisysplace.org
Louie's Kids is another beloved organization. This tax-exempt, nonprofit organization, raises funds to help treat childhood obesity, which afflicts 25 million American children today. Louie's Kids works to find the best treatment options to meet the needs of each child. They find the fix that fits, one kid at a time. Visit www.louieskids.org to learn more.
Buy Local is a grassroots movement of education and relationship building that promotes the many benefits that come from choosing to buy from local, independent businesses and farmers.
Eat Local is a sustainable agricultural initiative designed to grow and support local food systems by connecting local farms, producers and apprentices to the local restaurants, institutions and people with a hunger for farm-fresh food and goods. Through a variety of education, outreach and apprentice programs, they're working to get good people to good food and ensure that the agrarian culture continues to be an integral part of the Lowcountry economy and way of life.
And from a renovated warehouse in Charleston's creative corridor, GrowFood Carolina is revitalizing the local food system by providing essential aggregation, marketing, distribution and logistical support to local growers. This support connects growers to local grocers, restaurants, community organizations and institutions, to make local and healthy food more accessible to the entire community. Visit www.growfoodcarolina.com to learn more.
This husband and wife team have made their culinary mark on the Lowcountry and invite you and your family to the Square Onion.
They can be found at 18 Resolute Lane in Mount Pleasant or at www.squareonion.com.

There are certain stories that tear at the human heart. Tales of great heroism, about soul-crushing adversity faced and conquered, about horrific wars survived.
So it is with Spelling It Like It Is, a new memoir by Hollywood princess turned reality TV pauper Tori Spelling.
The daughter of Aaron Spelling, who was worth $600 mil, is virtually on Skid Row, she writes in the book. Yes, it's as dire as that, Tori tells People: She hasn't "bought a purse in three years," her four children are forced to wear hand-me-downs (oh, the shame!), and her husband Dean McDermott, 46, can't afford a vasectomy. Tori is unemployed: her reality show, Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood, was canceled last year. "So we have to be more restrictive of what we can spend," she says.

SAG / Globe Part 2...TV Noms
Hey kids. I have been in Iceland for a few days (all will be revealed in time) so I thought I'd pop in quickly for three things. First, to thank Anne, Tim and Glenn for providing you content while I'm away. Second to say "congrats!" to Golden Globe nominee Sally Hawkins who I met just before leaving on my trip (interview forthcoming) and who kinda sorta blew my mind by actually knowing / loving the site. Was it my Happy-Go-Lucky (2008) obsession? Third, and finally, to list the TV nominations for Globe & SAG.
I'll have more to say on the movie nominations (where my heart lies as you know) other than "co-sign! What Glenn said" once I return to the States this weekend. But for now let's talk the TV nominations after the jump since I only have a hot minute between events here in Iceland.

Novell Plans Open Source Apps Warehouse
Even though software installation under Linux has been among the best of things, Windows folks have had a hard time with it. Novell's new Apps Store should provide some long needed help.
As PC Pro reports, Novell has been mulling over a one-click warehouse solution à la iPhone and Android as part of their netbook initiative. The openSUSE Build Service has already been offering such one-click packages, although few have known about this opportunity or made use of it.
In response, Novell's VP of business development Holger Dyroff plans a netbook version of an open source Apps Store that distinguishes itself from existing ones by providing only free software. How far the Novell Apps Store has progressed for the Moblin version of openSUSE hasn't been revealed.

When you study the life of Jesus, you're quick to discover dramatic personal encounters that transformed those who met the Savior. In Mark 6, we find a model for the contemporary church. More
A Light in the DarknessIn him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. John 1:4-5 The Church is often confronted with the challenge of losing the centrality of the gospel in its mission – of becoming a marina instead of a lifeboat station. Primarily it exists to introduce unbelieving men and women to the saving power of Jesus Christ. The Gospel records tell us that Jesus repeatedly talked about doing the work of His Father, which was to provide payment for sin and breathe spiritual life in all who believe. As a result, those who are spiritually blind and live in darkness might have their eyes opened and become witnesses to His powerful light. Jesus performed great signs, ultimately, not so people would be amazed, but rather so they might believe and in believing they might have eternal life. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name. John 20:31 In this series Alistair Begg leads us through several unique and transforming encounters that people had with Jesus – the Light of the World. He exposed their real problem: the darkness of their sin and their need for forgiveness and a Savior. As you listen you will discover that their problem is universal and Jesus provides the only solution that brings conversion. How can the Church remember her mission and point people to the penetrating searchlight of Jesus Christ so that all may find life in His name? Find out when you listen to "A Light in the Darkness". But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9

Report: Kings Can't Keep Dustin Penner
Not every free agent was signed during the busy frenzy that pretty much began and ended on July 5 when free agency opened. There remain some pretty interesting players on the market, including Kings forward Dustin Penner .
The big forward who was part of LA's Stanley Cup team two seasons ago never shut the door on a return to the Kings, but at this point it's looking less and less likely.
The Kings are one of many teams this summer dealing with the crunch coming from the diminishing salary cap ceiling for next season with a lot of money already committed. GM Dean Lombardi doesn't seem to think fitting Penner back on the payroll is in the cards, he told LA Kings Insider Jon Rosen.
It's one of those cap things, and I guess it's safe to say I have a limited amount of cap space left, and there certainly isn't going to be enough to -- I mean his requirements. I talked to him the other day, and I just told him. I talked to his agent a couple days ago and [said] 'This is where we're at. I've only got X amount left.
