Group on verge of raising £1m
Last updated at 12:47, Tuesday, 08 January 2013
BUSINESS breakfasts are growing rapidly but one Barrow meeting is on the brink of raising £1m in revenue for its members.
Business Network International's Barrow chapter has raised £983,000 in business referrals for members in the past three years and is on track to hit the £1m mark early this year.
The group meets weekly and work together to ensure local traders flourish.
From tyre repairs to sign writers, accountants and solicitors, each meeting is a microcosm of the South Cumbrian business world.
Nationally, there are 6,866 BNI chapters in the UK and in 2011, BNI members gave 6.9 million referrals, leading to £2.4bn of business.
Scott Gomersall, chairman of the Barrow and Furness chapter, said: "The referrals have been secured by quality businesses so it's easy to pass a referral on because you trust them.
"It is a fantastic organisation."
Martin Fowler, membership secretary, said: "There is the complete spectrum of businesses here but there are still people we'd appreciate having – a photographer and florist for a start."
Only one company can represent each sector so competition can be tough but, with seats worth in excess of £9,000 to members, the committee is convinced membership fees are worthwhile.
Mr Gomersall said the group is due to reach its £1m of business in three years early in 2013.
Mr Fowler said the success of the Barrow chapter is leading to a new chapter in Lakeside, which will start up in the new year.
In the past two meetings there have been referrals worth £20,000 to group members, while the past six months have seen £117,000 of business referred.
Mr Fowler added: "This is all about keeping business local but having good quality businesses.
"People can come down to see how we operate – we are looking for other members."
For more information on BNI and how to join email Mr Gomersall on email@example.com.

12 due in court after disruption in Bristol
Twelve people are due in court today after being charged with criminal offences after unrest in Bristol on Saturday evening. Five people have been remanded in custody, while another seven have been released on bail.
Police haven't confirmed exactly what the charges are. It's after around 40 people gathered at the St George's Tavern in the Redfield area of the city following a march earlier in the day.

Verizon Defends Data Price Discrepancy in Share Everything
Verizon defends why its tiered Share Everything plans are priced so weird.
Recently Verizon revealed that it offers five additional Share Everything plans not listed on the company website. These can be obtained either by calling customer support, or by visiting a local Verizon store. The company said these five plans aren't advertised because consumers typically don't burn through more than 2 GB per month anyway.
The additional plans essentially build upon the 10 GB for $100 per month tier, adding an additional 2 GB to the data pool for an extra $10 per month. That said, the five additional tiers consist of 12 GB for $110, 14 GB for $120, 16 GB for $130, 18 GB for $140. Compared to AT&T's higher tiers, Verizon customers receive the better bargain.
But now several reports are pointing out a huge price discrepancy. For starters, let's make a small chart to show what's going on:
2 GB = $60 or $30 per GB
4 GB = $70 or $17.5 per GB
6 GB = $80 or $13.33 per GB
8 GB = $90 or $11.25 per GB
10 GB = $100 or $10 per GB
12 GB = $110 or $9.17 per GB
14 GB = $120 or $8.57 per GB
16 GB = $130 or $8.13 per GB
18 GB = $140 or $7.77 per GB
20 GB = $150 or $7.50 per GB
See the problem? A Verizon customer paying for 20 GB of data per month is essentially shelling out $7.50 per GB. However customers who only need 1 GB of data are paying $50 per month. Since all plans include unlimited calling and unlimited texting, it seems that customers would have a better deal doubling their data pool for only an extra $10 per month at the least.
"Pricing is based on a number of strategies and while cost is a part of the part of the equation, we recognize people are using more and more data," Verizon spokesperson Brenda Raney told TechRadar. "We introduced the Shared Data Plans so customers could share their data service across multiple devices."
That's fine, but the 1 GB customers are seemingly getting ripped off on a massive scale, right? In Verizon's eyes, it's like heading out to Sam's Club and buying in bulk -- you pay a bunch of money for a large group of Cap'n Crunch boxes bundled together, but if bought individually, the same number of cereal boxes would be more expensive.
"Those customers who purchase more data are effectively given a discount," Raney said. "If I had to use an analogy from a different industry, I would look to the consumer goods where people who purchase in bulk pay less per unit cost."
Hot Hardware questions why consumers can purchase a $60 router that projects Internet across the house, but are charged the same price for 1 GB that's streamed from huge cell towers standing out in the open. Maybe it's because we essentially move from one tower to the next, unlike our wireless routers at home?
Read Hot Hardware's argument -- it presents a good case of how wireless networks are ripping off its subscribers.
rip off
1Gundam288 , August 10, 2012 6:10 PMI wouldn't be shocked to hear people just "sharing" a share everything plan to save money for just making phone calls and texting if it does work out to be cheaper. (Haven't looked @ the details since I have no intent on going to them given the recent comments/stances/etc.)
My only question is: How many things can you add to it?
4whiteodian , August 10, 2012 6:14 PMRidiculous prices are why I'm switching to Straight Talk and paying $45 a month for Unlimited Talk/Text/Web. I'll be using my 3 year old 3GS, but plan to buy an International (unlocked) Galaxy S3. I wish more people would take advantage of the non-contract services and put the squeeze on the big phone companies. I am currently on AT&T with unlimited data (grandfathered), unlimited text and 450 minutes. I use less than 1GB of data, about 1K texts, and less than 100 min of phone and pay $100.
0DroKing , August 10, 2012 6:16 PM*vomits* Im glad I am getting off sprint's service this fall once my contract is up. All of the contracts are bunch of ripp offs hidden under fees. Going straight to prepaid world wheeeee.
0wildkitten , August 10, 2012 6:17 PMjacekringI have unlimited data from Verizon, grandfathered. Wonder if I can move that over to a share everything plan and then sell phone numbers for a monthly fee on ebay I won't charge $50! How about $45?
Problem is you won't have that plan for long. From reports, the moment you change calling plans or even get a new phone, you lose it.
"As you upgrade in the future, you will have to go onto the data-share plan," Shammo said. "A lot of our 3G base is unlimited. As they start to migrate into 4G, they will have to … go into the data-share plan. And that is beneficial for us."
4jtsyo , August 10, 2012 6:22 PMGundam288I wouldn't be shocked to hear people just "sharing" a share everything plan to save money for just making phone calls and texting if it does work out to be cheaper. (Haven't looked @ the details since I have no intent on going to them given the recent comments/stances/etc.)My only question is: How many things can you add to it?
You have to pay per device you add to the plan. Not worth it for just voice and text.
0burmese_dude , August 10, 2012 6:24 PMI currently have a 3G unlimited with Verizon. Anybody got a good advice what I should do come next year when the contract ends and I can get a new phone but I would have to leave 3g unlimited plan?
I don't want a 4g capped plan and I don't want to pay 500 to 700 from for a new phone to keep 3g unlimited plan.
4subasteve5800 , August 10, 2012 6:25 PMWasn't Verizon's whole argument for these ridiculous data tiers that "our networks can't handle the excessive amounts of data people are using"?
The way these plans are structured, it looks like Verizon is encouraging people to use more data.
Just more BS from Big Red. If another carrier had halfway decent coverage in my area, I'd switch in an instant.
1amstech , August 10, 2012 6:32 PMVerizon is one of the best, most efficient companies at being scandalous. They are professional con artists and have been for several years. They have all types of bullshit charges and fee's. Terrible, overpriced plans and horrible customer service. Thier signal is fantastic and its the only reason people stay with them.
1burmese_dude , August 10, 2012 6:33 PMjacekringGet the iPhone 4S, it's only 3g. That's the best 3g phone out there right now....otherwise you might be screwed.
There's got to be other options. I'm Android all the way. I don't support any Apple products.
0heizenbrg , August 10, 2012 6:42 PMInteresting article on Forbes: http://www.forbes.com/sites/ciocentral/2012/06/13/the-mobile-data-economy-how-much-do-you-need/
Someone should start a petition or something, that molly girl did it and owned BOA for the 5$ debit card fee. This is insane, just started the 2 yr 8gb share everything yesterday, but I knew how much I was going to pay, even the hidden fees. Verizon, If you really want to charge a shitload for data, AT LEAST take off that ABSURD 35$ activation fee. You got that PLUS a 40$ for smartphone. About their hidden taxes,If you read their contract carefully they say that most aren't state taxes but applied from Verizon as a whole. They have a monopoly, and they should be controlled.
0ntrceptr , August 10, 2012 6:53 PMMaybe i'm getting old but i will not change to a smartphone unless it's straighttalk or similar. I refuse to pay for internet a second time. I pay alot for my home connection and see no need to check facebook every 5 seconds. Compete with the prepaid and we can talk, i'll need 3-4 phones unlimited everything.
4teh_chem , August 10, 2012 6:53 PMI'm less concerned about the price/gb discrepancy between the 1GB plan and the 20GB plan. I'm more concerned with the fact that 1GB costs $50. That's an absurd price. At the sacrifice of the broader network, you can get a virgin mobile plan for $55/mo with unlimited everything and no lame monthly contract.
1kryten42 , August 10, 2012 7:05 PMI'm confused. You're saying the $50 for 1GB includes unlimited talk and text, but your calculations all act as if the talk and text is free.
0seanhallam , August 10, 2012 7:44 PMNot worth it, This is a total scam. This is the reason i only have a prepaid phone.
1heizenbrg , August 10, 2012 7:52 PMntrceptrMaybe i'm getting old but i will not change to a smartphone unless it's straighttalk or similar. I refuse to pay for internet a second time. I pay alot for my home connection and see no need to check facebook every 5 seconds. Compete with the prepaid and we can talk, i'll need 3-4 phones unlimited everything.
Yes, If it weren't for GPS signal and the usefulness of traveling with an internet connection( checking out restaurant's, cheap motel, finding the latest bargain on craigslist while you're on the road) I would stick to those old Nokia phones my grandma has, you now the black & white ones that are like totally unbreakable? fuck gorilla glass those phones where the best, snake owned fruit ninja soooo sosooo much
-1pierogi210 , August 10, 2012 8:13 PMI'll stick with my unlimited data plan that i still have.
0kelemvor33 , August 10, 2012 8:13 PMYet another reason to use something like Virgin Mobile. Unless you use more than 300 minutes per month, $30 or $35 gets you unlimited data (throttled after 2.5 gigs). I love my $25/mo grandfathered plan. I never use minutes I either text or call from home/work.
1kelemvor33 , August 10, 2012 8:16 PMheizenbrgInteresting article on Forbes: http://www.forbes.com/sites/ciocen [...] -you-need/Someone should start a petition or something, that molly girl did it and owned BOA for the 5$ debit card fee. This is insane,....
Money talks. If more people say F You to Verizon and the rest and start hopping onto prepaid, maybe they change.
Virgin Mobile gets you unlimited data for $35/mo. Includes 300 minutes. $45 is unlimited data and 1200 minutes. Who needs more than that. And that's everything included. Not a separate fee for voice and data and such.
0dalethepcman , August 10, 2012 9:32 PMI have six words/acronyms for verizon "Thanks for the 3g unlimited MiFi" They can suck it for all their current data prices, i'm keeping this bitch forever..

The Douglas C-54 Skymaster[N 1] was a long-range transport aircraft based on the DC-4, a civilian airliner, and used primarily by the armed forced of the United States of America.[N 2]
The C-54 began as a late 1941 redesign of the DC-4 to meet US Army Air Force specifications, and was ordered in large quantities without a prototype.
Following the Bombing of Pearl Harbor, which led to the entry of the United States of America into World War 2, the civilian DC-4 airliners already on the production line were finished with military markings and drab paint schemes, with the first of these flying on 14 February 1942.[3]
- C-54: Initial military conversion of the DC-4. Lacked cargo door, heavy duty floor and floor support structure found on later variants. Four 1,100hp Pratt & Whitney R-2000-3. Fuel capacity 3,580 US gallons.
- C-54A: Redesign for carriage of cargo and/or passengers. Four 1,100 R-2000-7. Fuel capacity 3,620 US Gallons. Known to US Navy as R5D-1.
- C-54B: C-54A with modified fuel system - two fuselage fuel tanks removed and replaced by outer wing tanks - and standardised cabin fittings to permit rapid change from cargo to troop transport, including individual oxygen outlets and removable stretcher fittings. Fuel capacity 3,720 US Gallons. Known to US Navy as R5D-2.
- VC-54C: Special aircraft modified for personal use by President Roosevelt, with electrically operated elevator, four staterooms - including one for the President - and main cabin with conference table.[N 3]
- C-54D: Cargo version with C-54B style interior. Produced in Chicago plant only. Known to US Navy as R5D-3.
- C-54E: Improved C-54-D, combining features of original C-54 with those of C-54A and C-54B. Fuel capacity 3,540 US Gallons. Produced in Santa Monica plant only. Known to US Navy as R5D-4. [N 4]
- C-54F: Modified C-54Bs incorporating special requirements of Troop carrier Command.
- C-54G: C-54E with R-2000-9 engines. Known to US Navy as R5D-5.
- C-54J: C-54G with full airline furnishings for personnel transport. No cargo facilities. Known to US Navy as R5D-6. [5]
- ↑ This is the designation for US Army Air Force aircraft. United States Navy examples used the R5D designation.[2]
- ↑ One C-54B and 22 C-54D aircraft were passed to the RAF under Lend-Lease as the Skymaster I,[3] with at least eleven examples serving with 232 Squadron during the final months of the war.[4]
- ↑ This aircraft received the name Sacred Cow.[3]
- ↑ Many of the C-54E's improvements, including fitment of R-2000-11 engines, were tested using C-54Ds.[2]

The Tarlatans Announce EP Release Show at Charleston Music HallPosted in Uncategorized with tags Blake Shorter, Charleston bands, charleston live music, charleston music, Charleston Music Hall, charlestonmusichall.com, G. Love, Jay Clifford, Ryan Williams, Steven Fiore, The Tarlatans, Volcanoes in The Kitchen on July 18, 2014 by Lowcountry Boil
Charleston based Rock-Roots band The Tarlatans will be celebrating the release of their highly anticipated EP "Good Luck" at The Charleston Music Hall with a show including Charleston favorite Steven Fiore and Volcanoes in The Kitchen on Saturday August 16th at 8 PM.
Beginning in February 2014, The Tarlatans recorded with acclaimed musician, composer, producer, Jay Clifford (Jump, Little Children) for a six-song EP. The recording features four new songs as well as updated versions of older songs including the regional radio hit, "Been Dreaming." Clifford's influence on The Tarlatans is similar to how most musicians feel about him, as they cite him and Jump Little Children as major influences. Says drummer Blake Shorter, '"Now that the process of recording the EP is over and we can actually sit back and listen to the final results, we're so thrilled that we were able to have Jay Clifford as our producer. After working with Jay I think we all agree that the man is a musical genius, and some of the things musically that he guided us and inspired us to do worked out really well." Lead guitar player and songwriter Ryan Williams continues, "We had a blast making the EP, working with Jay, and recording at Hello Telescope and Charleston Sound. This record is quite a step up from our self-made album a while back. We couldn't be more proud of the EP or more excited to have a great sounding product." In turn, Clifford was excited to be working with the band: "The Tarlatans have a sincerity in their songwriting that puts them in the same class as The Avett Brothers and The Lumineers."
Along with G. Love, the record has been blessed by the likes of Josh Kaler (Slow Runner / Butch Walker), and string work from local heavyweights, Micah Gangwer, Peter Kiral, and Norbert Lewandowski.
Over the past two years The Tarlatans have played every type of venue, bar, and club in the Southeast and always look forward to being in their adopted hometown of Charleston for shows. Playing The Charleston Pour House with The Wild Feather, The Music Farm with Jars of Clay, and headlining The Windjammer have all been bucket list items for the band, and they are crossing another item off the list by performing their new tunes at The Charleston Music Hall.
Tickets for The Tarlatans EP Release show are available online at charlestonmusichall.com, at the Charleston Music Hall Box office, 37 John Street (Tues. – Fri. 10am – 6pm, 843-853-2252), at Monster Music and Movies or Cats Music or at the Etix Hotline: 1-800-514-3849. Tickets at the door Day Of Show will be $13.50.

The final dinner in the 2014 series will be held on November 2nd at Celestial Hills Farm in Huger, SC.
With years of hands-on experience in a variety of different kitchens and atmospheres, Chef Stephen Thompson has been able to really let his creativity shine at Prohibition. For Chef Thompson, the art of preparing food is more than just a job or even a passion as it's a way of life. As classmates at the Art Institute of Charleston, Thompson and Chef Joe DiMaio and have always enjoyed a close relationship and supported one another as each worked up through Charleston's culinary ranks. Known for innovation in the kitchen and a commitment to using fresh, locally sourced ingredients, Chef DiMaio jumped at the opportunity to co-host one of the dinners in the series.
Geechie Boy Farm proprietors Greg and Betsy Johnsman returned to the Edisto Island family farm in 2003, growing a variety of vegetables. In 2007, they acquired a 1945 gristmill and after some trial and error began producing grits and cornmeal. Greg's commitment to traditional milling techniques has been embraced by chefs across the Lowcountry. Geechie Boy products are now served in more than 40 restaurants around South Carolina and are shipped nationwide.

Check out Callie's Little Hot BiscuitPosted in Uncategorized with tags Callie's Charleston Biscuits, Callie's Little Hot Biscuit, Callie's Biscuits, Carrie Morey, charleston biscuits, charleston eats, charleston foods, charleston specialties, downtown charleston, Food Network, ham biscuits, King Street, martha stewart, Today Show on June 19, 2014 by Lowcountry Boil
Located at 476 1/2 King St in downtown Charleston, Callie's Little Hot Biscuit is a small, grab & go eatery serving piping hot Callie's award-winning biscuits, pimento cheese sandwiches, and other locally inspired breakfast and lunch treats.
"Since the beginning of this business, fans of Callie's Biscuits have urged us to open up a little shop — 'a hot little biscuit shop' they would say," said owner Carrie Morey. "476 ½ King Street has just the right character, and we're thrilled to squeeze into all 629 square feet of it and make it a destination, albeit tiny, for biscuit lovers near and far."
More about Callie's Charleston Biscuits:
Carrie Morey had an early introduction to the food world courtesy of her mother, caterer extraordinaire, Callie White. Callie's unique style of Southern fare and global flair kept her booked years in advance for everything from casual Lowcountry gatherings and chic cocktail parties to celebrity wedding receptions. The client favorite were Callie's unique country ham biscuits. So in 2005, Carrie convinced her mother to postpone retirement and start Callie's Charleston Biscuits, devoted biscuit fan. With seven different varieties of biscuits and retailers all over the country, Carrie never dreamed that success would taste so good – buttery good that is. Carrie has succeeded in building a business that works with balancing a growing family and can be passed down through generations. What was once a biscuit legendary in South Carolina has now become a favorite across America. Callie's Biscuits has appeared on the NBC Today Show and The Food Network's hit television show Unwrapped. Carrie was chosen as one of Martha Stewarts's "Dreamers into Doers".

all, but no, he doesn't do that at all and totally goes against the grain releasing a really subdued psychedelia-influenced album. I love when artists do that kind of thing, taking the liberty to make really self-indulgent albums after tremendous successes (similarly Stevie Wonder did this after Songs in the Key of Life). Even if they're imperfect albums, I find it interesting what realms a genius voyages into when not really trying to appeal to wide audience. I think I'd put it ATWIAD > Parade > Controversy personally. Parade is a bit sparser and it was interesting what he was doing as far as doing funk songs without using bass, but I kind of prefer the chill vibe ATWIAD has for the most part.... I haven't gotten to listening to any of his '90s work tbh. There's this one song I like though called "7" though, catchy and interesting content. His work post-80s seems to have some really interesting conceptual ideas, but from my impressions they aren't executed quite as well as his...Februar 2014
Yeah, I totally agree with what you said about Controversy, I always saw it as just the next logical progression, but considering its level of quality (which is lacking a bit) it seems a bit more like a stopgap. It does hold a significant place in Prince's discography I think though because like you said it basically expands his persona and makes him more than just a controversial guy who talks about sex. Controversy just broadens the scope of Dirty Mind, basically expanding the idea to more areas other than sex, the idea being the limits society puts on people and how free are we really to be ourselves (he kind of talks about that a bit on the song "Uptown" actually). I kind of like how self-aware he is on that album as well... I find ATWIAD and Parade though to be totally compelling parts of Prince's discography though because in no way are they next logical progressions. You'd figure after Purple Rain he'd continue doing more poppy, catchy music with the futuristic elements and...Februar 2014
How would you rank these albums from best to worst? Controversy, Around the World in a Day, and Parade. Those all seem to be the in between albums in Prince's 80's run that aren't mentioned nearly as much as Dirty Mind, 1999, Purple Rain, and Sign O' the Times. I don't think they're quite as good as those, but they're certainly very worthy albums to talk about and are some really interesting excursions in his discography.Februar 2014
I'm bummed, it isn't very good. First time I think in her whole career she's missed the mark. That said, it is a classy miss & nowhere near the nadir of "4 Minutes" which really wrecked my head & heart as a Madonna fan. I am interested in what the record will sound like.Februar 2014
It's up. http://www.popmatters.com/feature/178875-fortune-favors-the-brave-bedtime-stories-and-kylie-minogue-turn-20/Februar 2014
I was overly confident going into the Liverpool game and after the result I'm now underly? confident of United. Although I wouldn't even care about the Bayern result if we batter United and Liverpool in our next two games. I think going out of the CL now would help us in the PL and FA Cup (which are far more winnable) rather than making the quaters or semis of the CL.Februar 2014
To see us concede twice from set pieces within 10 minutes was shocking, especially considering we've been so solid at the back recently. Thought Wenger would've realised that he should start Gibbs in big games rather than Monreal after the 6-3 match. Also this game shows that 1 - we are really missing Ramsey, a complete box to box midfielder who puts in work defensively but can also change the game and 2 - we need to start looking for an Arteta replacement fast, his lack of pace is really becoming an issue. Also considering we didn't exactly bounce back after the 6-3 to City, I'm fearing the worst against United. Based on how poorly they're playing though, anything less than a win would be humiliatingFebruar 2014
I've felt a result like this coming for a little while..Februar 2014
Yeah, that string of albums is as good as any I've ever heard. It's kind of funny that you'd start with those artists in the soul genre haha. I haven't heard of anyone starting there, that's cool though. You should listen to Innervisions, Talking Book, and Songs in the Key of Life first. I think you'll like them, even if they have to grow on you. Stevie has a very charismatic quality about him that's pretty evident in his music. I don't know how to describe it exactly, but he this uncommon sincerity that's matched with this unfailing optimism in his music that you just don't come by everyday. Anyway, I'd like to know your thoughts and stuff, whenever you get to listening to those or whatever ('cause I know how easy it is to put listening to new music off).Januar 2014
You ever get into Stevie Wonder's discography by chance?Januar 2014
Why did I get my hopes up for this transfer window...Januar 2014
:)Januar 2014
I got the Kylie/Madonna 1994 pitch!Januar 2014
The fact that Wenger didn't put Podolski on yesterday, even though Santi was having a poor game, reinforces the idea Wenger may not be too confident in Podolski any more. The seems to be loads of rumours about Draxler who can play LW & would be a brilliant signing imo but would probably also mean Podolski would leave.Januar 2014
Are you ready for the #DamitaJoRetro project? Inbox me for details. #ThisIsSickJanuar 2014
You could say every album has a song that might be the crux or hinge upon which the rest of the LP rotates; a lot of critics attempted to level (against) KM '94 that there wasn't another CiM, but then that would make the song not unique in and of itself. On the other hand, if she'd done CiM 9x more, people would have complained. I think the sleeper (s) of the LP are "Surrender" and "Falling," the latter is just so deep, dank & chemical. I guess I went in wanting to see what else the LP offered, that said CiM is amazing, no denying. But you know, the argument you level is how I feel about "Fever" and "More, More, More" and how amazing that one track itself is. I love constructive Kylie convo's!!!Januar 2014
Really? I don't hear that, not with similar numbers (in scope) w/ PYiMP, Dangerous Game, WHtLG and Falling. The record perfectly mixed dance, R&B (acid jazz & hip-hop influenced), adult contemporary in the embraceable pop style. All at once the record is adult without being stuffy, sensual without a whorish after taste, broad without trying to hard & most importantly lean. Just my abridged two cents. P.S.-The pitch is being considered, just got the e-mail!Januar 2014
Seven days ago.Januar 2014
MusiQ3985 Dude, I've pitched a retrospective about its (KM '94) transformative ability to pull women out of the dance-pop market into the broader pop field (along w/ "Bedtime Stories") to PopMatters. KM '94 is my all-time favorite Kylie record, a favorite record of mine period & bears no blemishes whatsoever. The record is perfect, top to bottom. :) Is that a yes for you, lol?Januar 2014
A winger would be a bonus, Gnabry & Ox should be able to do the job, but a striker is a must. Honestly Alvaro Morata is not the type of player we should be going for, we need someone who is as good as or better than Giroud. Martinez or Costa are the only real options right now and we should go all out to sign one of them.Januar 2014
Just as things seem to be looking up, something fucks up. This season feels like deja vu of 2007/08. Just hope we can bring in a few new signings.Januar 2014
improvement as far as that goes (and this is probably one of my main complaints about her songwriting). The thing you said about Butterfly possibly needing another celebratory-type cut, I feel Daydream has in the song "Always Be My Baby". I think it's cohesive enough, maybe not as much as so as Butterfly, but I'm thinking maybe it benefits from that in a way. And yeah, Daydream does seem to really wind down and get tiresome when "Melt Away" hits. I relistened to both just now and considered the stuff you said, and decided to up my rating of Butterfly a bit.Januar 2014
Butterfly being all that more personal, though I feel there might be a slight improvement in the songwriting area as she seemed to start getting into more situational concepts (but with the same basic themes of lust/love). Her cover of "The Beautiful Ones" was pretty meh to me, kind of unnecessary. I guess that's my feeling of a few of the songs on the album in general, "why listen to this when I could be listening to something else?" Why listen to "The Roof" when I could just as easily listen to "Shook Ones" or "Whenever You Call" when I could be listening to "When I Saw You". Plus like you said about the reworkings of certain songs. I suppose you have a point about Daydream just as much taking from its predecessor(s) as Butterfly takes from Daydream, but Daydream seems to capitalize a lot more off the previous ideas and is a more significant artistic progression imo. And tbh, I figured Mariah being maudlin was pretty much a given for the most part. Though, I agree, there is some...Januar 2014
Yeah, I suppose it was pretty wise on her part to not stray too far away from that same sort of formula and kind of try to polish it up to try to right the "wrongs" that were on the prior release. But it just comes off as very complacent to me, kind of a been there, done that sort of thing. I think I just enjoy the arena-sized ballads more than the sultry mild ones. I feel like the ballads on Daydream just have more entertaining build up and are better at displaying Mariah's vocal talents. The singing on Butterfly usually comes off a little more restrained to me at times, and not as sonorous or resounding. Hence the more evident raspiness in her voice. Many of the songs on that album feel like they begin and end on the same note (I enjoy more build up in ballads, particularly in the case of a melismatic singers such as Mariah - actually this is very important). With the exception of "Close My Eyes" (and I'd say "One Sweet Day" is close to matching it), I actually never caught on to...Januar 2014
I was talking to this person on another forum about the albums in Mariah's discography. I was wondering why do people think Butterfly is better than Daydream. I've seen you say the same on another page in last.fm I believe, I was wondering what your reasons were. Anyway, my thoughts towards that are just that I feel Butterfly borrows a little too much as an entire album structurally from Daydream and doesn't really improve upon anything done before either. I'm thinking maybe I'm off on this, so your perspective could potentially be enlightening. The sometimes subtle hip hop influence on the music doesn't really do anything for me either tbh.Januar 2014
Hugs to you. Have a great day!Dezember 2013
Firstly we need to clear off Park & loan Frimpong (apparently his contract won't be renewed end of season). Then we need a clinical striker, Jackson Martinez/Diego Costa type, although both seem unlikely at this stage. Currently I'd be happy with any striker who can be rotated with Giroud. As for Schär I would love him at Arsenal but there's almost no chance of a January move as he had a knee-op and is out until February I think. Over January we don't have any really tough fixtures so I'm worried Wenger will feel he doesn't need to strengthen based on those performances, but then when we get to Feb & March we'll struggle. Also Ramsey is out now for however long, we're fortunate that we have a lot of players in that position but Ramsey was our star player first half of the season and I hope someone else will step up and shine now that he's injured. Also, hope you had a good Christmas.Dezember 2013
I've got a bad feeling about this transfer windowDezember 2013
Ha the Ancient Grecian fight against fate, part heroic part tragic. Just seems like those pesky prophecies and prophets are made to be ignored. And yeah geez, I wonder how appreciated it was back in its contemporary days. I've seen one other sculptor whom a friend showed to me whose figures I like as much, and he's relatively modern. It's a pity I can't remember his name, I'll have to ask him about it later. Incidentally: fucked the final and I'm done with school. Time for some binge drinking.Dezember 2013
Yeah, definitely there's more of an emphasis on feminist themes, but still with the music it's kind of stuck in today's time. Interesting to see how it holds up years later. haha And critics seem to dig the corny ad-libs and spoken word stuff. It was a very well executed album for sure. It's a lot better if you watch all the music videos too though. If you ever get the chance, you should do that.Dezember 2013
From a brief investigation about about a year ago, I think they were a producer duo from Belgium, kinda like Ancient Astronauts in the whole not American producer duo instrumental producing way haha. Aside from that I didn't investigate much farther - it's hard enough as it is to find info about esoteric local acts, let alone foreign ones. And thanks a lot man, I may need it! Yeah I know the feeling, that one hour could make all difference...incidentally since we're talking about art can I enthuse about Laocoon and his Sons? Such an beautiful sculpture, it's hard to believe it exists and isn't computer-generated...Dezember 2013
On another note, though, do you listen to 40 Winks? One of the samples from the Whiskey Blanket tracks reminded me of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZpiSZhXDI0 They've got a wistful melodic sound, combining a sense of airy, whimsical melancholy with a sort of sonic upbeat spontaneity. They also hit a pretty wide variety of samples and rhythms (although it sounds like they definitely use some live instrumentation), overall some pretty chilled out listening. It's gonna be my studying jam up until my next executioner's walk.Dezember 2013
Well, I just screwed up a math final - I don't know if you got the impression but I'm pretty much an incomparable fucking idiot in the first hour or two that I'm awake, and I do things like not see important details in the paper in front of me detailing that only half the test is multiple choice -_- well it's really just the difference between a C and a B, since I'm also disorganized as fuck so I'll just move on. In 3 hours I have a "Cultural Foundations" final, which is essentially a glorified art history class with a little extra Biblical analysis from an authorial perspective - pretty interesting stuff, I say. I'm doing so last minute cramming for it since the teacher grades VERY specifically. This'll be fun.Dezember 2013
Hey just gave that Whiskey Blanket track a listen - and damn you're totally right this is exactly my kind of stuff. I may just make myself cop this to get it, this may actually end up being on repeat a lot this break. How's school by the way? I'm walking the execution board to my finals tomorrow so it's time for a last hurrah here.Dezember 2013
Yeah, that bridge at the end is terrible. I mean, the whole song is pretty silly. There's a lot of those sort of lyrics on the album haha. I seems as it is very much an act as well, she's very revealing in the music videos and has a bunch of sexual content in the music, which can be kind of off-putting at times. I was thoroughly impressed with it all by the end of hearing and watching it though. I thought it showed tremendous savvy on her part the way she crafted the album. She still doesn't really have a personality though. What makes it savvy is her knowing which artists to collab with and stuff, she really pulled out nearly every stop as far as styles of music go. I mean, you take that "Blow" song for example, sounds like a Justin Timberlake track. Then she has Frank Ocean, Drake, Timbaland, ect. all on the album, she adapts to their styles pretty well, and it still comes off as a pretty cohesive sounding album. I'd like to her your thoughts though, when you do hear it.Dezember 2013
How you liking that new Beyonce?Dezember 2013
why havent you scrobbled in the last year/ D:Dezember 2013
:O thank you! i knew it sounded familiar.Dezember 2013
This year has been weaker than others I do agree. Haim is my favourite this year.Dezember 2013
I think Dream Street is her very worst. Its not horrible, just she didn't have much creative control and what not. Her self titled is really good actually but again its not that creative, a little bit of a rip of MJs really early days. Whats your favourite album of this year?Dezember 2013
My absolute favourite is janet. but I agree, her album run from Control to AFY is flawless and that Damita Jo is really good but does sound a little rushed at times. Her worst is 20 Y.O. for me. Discipline is a little better but not a huge improvement.Dezember 2013
Whats your favourite Janet Jackson album? :-)Dezember 2013
On a last, completely arbitrary note - fuck man, I CANT stop listening to Midnight Marauders. I'm OBSESSED. I always liked it before, even loved, but I've literally never listened to an album so habitually before, it's ridiculous. I probably would have 1000 plays of this if my iphone didn't swallow up and lose scrobbles so much.Dezember 2013
I haven't actually heard the bonus tracks so I'll have to get on that before I actually judge - Asshole definitely grated with me though. Still, I won't say too much before I listen. And I'll def check em out! My listening portfolio has diversified hugely since I got back into music and the beginning of the school year - I find myself enjoying listening to shit like Run-DMC, Eric B. and Rakim, LL Cool J, and EPMD, lots more Jay Dee and a ton of southern stuff that before lacked that "clicking together" quality to me. And Boulder, ha....I had a friend who almost went to school there. Pretty quaint place. I'll get back to you on them in a few hours, I'm actually late for class replying to you...and sorry about my late replies, finals are coming up and I'm in last hurrah mode right now. Or at least I was before two days ago until I caught a fever and a mighty headache.Dezember 2013
Yeah, sometimes I had a hard time getting behind the mix of modern techno-pop and Beastie Boys-esque production. I found the outro to the first track particularly tasteless. And I couldn't agree more about Eminem's experimentation with his flows, but I feel like he's still trying to figure out where he's going as a rapper. I really do dislike this off-kilter syncopated flow he's taken to though; it's not bad but it lacks all the smooth effortlessness that he used to have. "The title MMLP2 is, in a way, misleading - because the album is a summation of his career." I actually couldn't agree more, I've been saying that it's actually a resolution of all three of his personas already, in a way it's like saying he's graduated from the old and he's one consolidated musical artist now. I wonder what the next record he puts out will be like with this in perspective...Dezember 2013
Too bad. Silent Saboteurs was spot on. If you ever find something similar to SS or WB, holler at me.Dezember 2013
I'm an albums guy too, really enjoy a collection of songs that fit. for me 8-10 songs is what i prefer. A lot of hip-hop albums have about 16+ songs which usually drags on a bit for me but its usually a quality thingDezember 2013
What else would you suggest to someone who has been a fan of Whiskey Blanket since '08 and enjoys Silent Saboteurs?Dezember 2013
his stuff that's somewhat original as well, I'll also admit.Dezember 2013
lol It's all good man. But yeah, I just feel that the praise for R. Kelly needs to be evened out a little more with some well-weighted criticism that's a lot of the reason for that whole thing and I'm glad that you started to point it out on there. No doubt at all that Kelly has talent, just he never fully reached his potential and takes the cop out in his music by telling critics to "shut up" and stuff in his songs instead of holding himself accountable for his mediocre efforts - it almost makes you believe that that's the best he can do haha. And I hope you're talking about the "Ignition" remix because I don't care for the original too much... But yeah, that one criticism was a little off, he does have that "Trapped in the Closet" series which shows a potentially good and original concept (original in it's expansive storytelling not quite down before in the genre), but I think that was a little more weighted to his total contributions in general. He has some musicality to some of...Dezember 2013

The Remarkably Thorough Harry Potter Character Test
Their result for The Remarkably Thorough Harry Potter Character Test ...
Cedric Diggory
"I realize I never really thanked you for tipping me off about those dragons."
You are Cedric Diggory, Hufflepuff seeker and all-around perfect dude. Cedric is friendly, down to earth, and selfless. Since the books are told from Harry's point of view, and since he is initially jealous of Cedric, we don't learn much about Cedric until he and Harry must work together to complete the Triwizard tasks. However, we can deduce from his actions that he is very kind and generous toward others, going so far as to help Harry through the second and third tasks even though it doesn't benefit him. You are similar to Cedric in the sense that you are quite the charmer, but you are far from arrogant. You don't like to think of yourself as some amazing do-gooder; you just care about people and would rather focus on building friendships than encouraging petty drama. Your friends love your company because of this, and they know they can count on you to be honest with them. Although you are not one to sit and agonize over a decision, you are intelligent enough to know what effects your words and actions will bring, and you always take responsibility for yourself.
In short, you are more:
Impulsive than cautious
Mature than immature
Modest than confident
Normal than weird
Extroverted than introverted
Their Analysis (Vertical line = Average)
They scored 48% on Impulsivity, higher than 85% of your peers.
They scored 41% on Maturity, higher than 36% of your peers.
They scored 33% on Confidence, higher than 41% of your peers.
They scored 36% on Weirdness, higher than 39% of your peers.

- Cooking Time:
- Servings:
- Preparation Time:
- 1 or 2 pounds of any type of yellow squash, skinned, seeded, and cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
- 1 medium potato, cut up, peeled if desired (but the peel has most of the nutrition and actually has a good flavor to add)
- 1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan-reggiano cheese
- 1/4 cup milk, or to taste
- Garlic salt to taste
- Boil the squash and potato until soft.
- Mash.
- Add cheese, then milk, stir well.
- Add salt and pepper if desired.
NotesI've asked my friend Lisa to send me some of her recipes, since I want to learn to cook. I also got her to join Bakespace, but I doubt she is ever going to be very active. So I decided to post her recipe instead of waiting for her to do it.
This dish is a good replacement for mashed potatoes, in my opinion. The parmesan cheese is a wonderful added flavor! I added garlic salt to her original recipe, because, well, I love garlic.

Beginner, Containers, Dee Nash, Flowers, Growing, Transplanting, Winter,
Fresh herbs are pretty and delicious, as well as easy to grow.
Here are some ideas for easy favors for the guests at your next garden party.
To keep your plants alive and happy, consider the place from which your plant hails along with its environment. Agaves, my favorite indoor/outdoor plants, and cacti are both desert dwellers. Since I often get preoccupied in winter and forget to water, they are both also the perfect indoor plants for me. In autumn when I bring in my agaves, I check them for bugs and determine if they need a larger container. Then, I place the agaves atop my grandmother's sewing machine in a west-facing window. This window opens upon a line of trees on the hill beside my house, so even on warm, winter days, the agaves get a respite from afternoon sun. Agaves and other succulents thrive in bright, indoor light so this spot is perfect for them.
Other favorite houseplants are often tropical, and I find these perform better in my bathroom where they get east and south light. Moisture from the shower makes their leaves shine, and you don't have to water as much as you might think. Overwatering kills more houseplants than neglect.
One of the best trends in gardening is pulling together like things, and it works perfectly indoors too. Group like plants or pots together for greater visual impact.
For your kitchen, try herbs in a window. Instead of starting with seeds, buy herbs in pots and then transplant them into containers like these fun, Fiskars Eco-Friendly round planters in purple. I found rosemary, variegated sage and a smaller globe basil at the grocery store, and because I wanted to place them on a windowsill, I planted mine into one rectangular, red container. I chose red because it's a cheery color in winter and contrasts nicely with green foliage. If my herbs outgrow their space after winter, I can plant them in the garden come spring. Snip off new growth to cook with, or simply run your hands across them for an aromatherapy boost. At my desk, I rotate a plant in and out of my writing area which happens to be in our kitchen. Having a bit of green at my fingertips is a wonderful thing in winter. Small African violets or other easy-care plants are great for this. If the plant isn't getting enough sun, I rotate it back to a window bringing another to inhabit my workspace.
This winter, try forcing some bulbs. Although we see tulips, narcissus (daffodils) and crocus outside in March and April, there's nothing stopping us from also growing these plants indoors where we can enjoy them up close. Bulbs that need a cooling period can sit in the refrigerator for twelve to sixteen weeks, but keep them away from apples or other ripening fruit. If you live in a cold area, you may also use cold frames, your garage or a basement to cool bulbs for forcing, and you can plant them in containers before they begin the cooling process. I like daffodils in the Tazetta class (paper whites) because they don't need chilling, and some, like 'Geranium' and 'Inbal' smell much nicer than the more common 'Ziva.' Check out William B. Miller's advice from Cornell University about how to keep stems shorter and more manageable. Amaryllis (Hippeastrum) are other great plants for growing indoors and so easy. Before they grow too large, make a support. They get large, and you don't want your container to fall over. Trust me, I've had it happen.
These tips should help you and your plants to thrive throughout winter. Growing plants indoors is worth the time and effort because a bit of green at your fingertips is essential for a gardener to fend off the winter blues.

One of Roccos reliable accomplices, The outrageous Omar takes a turn in Blondage with Carla and Cindy, two insanely hot fair haired vixens who get by with a little help from their double headed purple dildo.

Can we FINALLY get a customized cursor in this game?

Well thank you Cryptic, it only took over two years to address the cursor issue. It still is IMO not much of a fix, the ability to make the cursor a COLOR alone (or colored plus larger) might have addressed the matter. Despite the larger size, it still "disappears" and is hard to locate when there is too much happening on screen IMO. Wish I could change the damn color of it.
Now had someone, anyone on staff seen fit to address the issue, acknowledge the issue or come on here on the forums and tell us a fix was on the way, well that would have been downright informative and helpful even.
I can only assume the reason none of that occurred goes to a comment I saw Bran Flakes make a while back. They (Cryptic & Bran) just were not going to be "browbeat" into fixing the issue for two plus years. Imagine the impertinence of game playing customers like me that tried every means available, including I guess "browbeating" to get the team to address the issue!
So thanks for doing something about it, finally.

'Oh Kate, How You Make Me Masturbate' is the Most Disturbing Love Poem Ever Found in a College Dorm Room

Articles regularly pop up talking about how men and women over 50 are ignored by marketers, advertisers, the movie industry, politicians and the media, often convincing us that we are, in fact, invisible.
Read Whole Story
The most important thing I learned is this: health and fitness should be our top priorities after 50 because the better we feel, the better we look, and age becomes irrelevant.
Before you even think about embarking on any of your New Year's resolutions, consider this fundamental truth: you can't move forward if you're stuck where you are.
Diane talked about style, beauty, confidence, experience, age, and how she truly believes that women are at their best, most confident, and sexiest after 50.
You know that someone who is always pulled together, who just knows how to add the right scarf to make an outfit, who inspires, who just always looks great?
Traveling through Israel gave me a wonderful opportunity to talk with Israeli women about how they eat, exercise, approach skin care, hair and makeup routines, and so much more.
Was this the moment I was waiting for to proudly and publicly acknowledge my foray into my 50s? Should I now wear my graying hair like a badge of honor and attitude? I was confused.

I have dry skin and sometimes my forehead is oily so i have been looking for a moisturizer that would not clog my pores or break me out, but also moisturize my skin and i can honestly say i have found it! This moisturizer is light but still very hydrating and looks good under my makeup. I have also noticed that it gives my skin a nice glow! even my husband noticed (which should mean something)! This is definantly something i will continue to repurchase and a little goes a long way.

When it gets warmer, I set my alarm and walk very early or wait until after dark. I have a reflective vest, headlamp, and the dog has a reflective collar and leash. It usually is light in the morning but 70 is much more pleasant than 100 and I'm OK walking early for that.
I also have walking videos for when it is truly too hot to get outside or I don't have time at the right time of day. It gets better.
My goal this summer is to walk to each child's home (I have three living within 5 miles of me) and back before the end of the summer. It was my goal last year but I didn't watch my food and aggravated my arthritis. I'm in better control this summer, so I should do better.

I walk in my neighborhood. Sometimes I walk to the Dollar store or grocery store. I try to change it up each day. I try not to walk the same route everyday so that I don't get bored. I trying to work my way up to five miles a day by the end of the summer. That's if I can survive the heat.
Up until now, almost all of my walking was while I was at work teaching 6th grade. I started parking further from the door at school which helped a little. The weekends were my are my low points because I spent so much time at the computer writing lesson plans and searching for fun ways to present the material to the kids. I haven't found a way to walk while grading papers yet so that's a big chunk of time too. I'm off for the summer starting Wednesday and I'm looking forward to having time to walk for the sake of walking.
I make sure to park far out in parking lots when I have to run errands to get extra steps in. I have no issues walking around my house, yard and garden. Most mornings I walk my road in circuits laps by myself or with the dogs and family. I am hoping to get a local SP walking group going in the evening at the Jacksonville Commons area which has 2 walking/biking paths that complete a 5k loop. I also have enjoyed going down to a local park to walk the gravel travel.

I do a walking game for the wii called walk It out plus i walk a lot where i work. Then if that is not enough for me It the weather is cool I walk outside. I love to walk.I also go to a church right down the road from me when the heat is not bad. they have a great outdoor track that is 1 1/2 miles and it is up and down hills. So it is a really good work out. I will also go the the flea market or the farmers market to walk around. That is just some of the places I like walking. hugs to all.
With the heat here in Tucson right now, walking outdoors is not happening. My last great walk was at the Grand Canyon! Can't hike up the mountains due to heat and fire danger being HIGH.
SO, have been MALL walking, or the gym

"If you want to do something, you'll find a way, if you don't, you'll find an excuse."
I normally walk in my neighborhood. I have walks for 1/2, 1, 2, etc to 6 mile walks figured out in town. There are several walking trails nearby on old rail trails or nature trails. There are also mountain trails within a mile or so from my house. No lack of places to go.

I walk at lunchtime - rather than jumping in the car and grabbing a quick bite from work...I walk to a 'strip mall' within 1 mile from my office, grab a bite there and walk back to the office. I can usually log at least 7000 steps before I get home each day that way - plus doing the usual walking around the building to meetings etc all day. Then in the evenings I either log some time at the gym on the treadmill (if there is time between classes) or I take the dog for a walk around the neighborhood.
I also walk at the beach (Pacific Ocean) every few weeks at least - it's just a few miles from my home. Sometimes I walk to the beach and back from my house...
Love my walking! Definitely part of my lifestyle now!

I think it would be interesting to find out where people go to walk. I walk the section around my house, I live in the country. Or I go to the Rail Trail In St. Charles, MI
