News: Fat Joe's Loyalty Ended The Beef, Says 50 Cent [Video]
Monday, Nov 19, 2012 5:53PM
G-Unit leader 50 Cent recently discussed ending his feud with rap veteran Fat Joe a couple months ago and why his loyalty to late Violator Management founder Chris Lighty shocked him.
According to Fif, Joe showed he had one characteristic most rappers lack.
"Chris would always talk to me like, 'Why don't y'all sit down or try to let that go?' ... I'd tell him, 'Get outta here,' all the time. When he passed, Joe showed him a lot of respect. He ain't have to. I worked the closest with him, it changed my perspective on it. And then you gotta look back at what exactly's the reason, what caused it. He's got a lot more pride than most hip-hop artists. It was just the way he was raised. He was being loyal because someone had did something for him, being loyal to that, that's what created that energy [between us coming together]." (Boos-A-P)
Last month, Joey Crack talked about fulfilling Lighty's dream of them putting their past issues aside to unite.
"He always wanted me and 50 Cent to make peace forever but we were just being stubborn and ignoring him," Fat Joe revealed in an interview referring to the late Chris Lighty. "I came to do the tribute, I knew 50 Cent would be there but I came there like, 'We're going to do this for Chris.' And while we were there, 50 whispered some things in my ear that was like gentleman-like, you know what I'm saying? I'm a gentleman. I don't dislike people. I'm one of the most loveable dudes in hip-hop, believe it or not. But you know, he just said the right things, a handshake was involved and that was that. It was two grown men to say 'Yo, this is Chris Lighty, this is for hip-hop, let's move on with our lives.' This is Israel-Palestine. I don't want to talk crazy but this was going to go bad no matter what. ... Unfortunately, it took somebody I love very much and [50] love so much, somebody who tried effortlessy to squash the beef for years." (Hot 107.9)
Days prior, 50 confirmed a truce had been called at the BET Hip Hop Awards taping.
"Ill check it outRT @AR_Knight: Now that @50cent & fatjoe squashed things a dope collabo would be nice...." (50 Cent's Twitter)
On Fat Joe's "Goodbye" remix Lighty ode, he even acknowledges the late music executive's attempt to cease their beef.
"I know you couldn't stop the 50 sh*t/But I ain't never look at you no different Chris/You was my mentor, you started me/That's why you'll forever be a part of me/I pray to God to forgive him/And when you get to heaven tell Pun we'll miss him" ("Goodbye" Remix)

"We considered other producers, but not for long," Linkin Park vocalist Mike Shinoda told NME. "Rick is a good fit for us in a number of different ways. He's so experienced in so many genres, he refers [to] so many different types of music. Our tastes line up really well, so he's a great fit for us."
Additionally, Linkin Park revealed the track list for Living Things. While the band members have hinted that this new disc will be far less political than their last one, I'm very curious what "Lies Greed Misery" is about.
Living Things Track List:
- "Lost in the Echo"
- "In My Remains"
- "Burn It Down"
- "Lies Greed Misery"
- "I'll Be Gone"
- "Castle of Glass"
- "Victimized"
- "Roads Untraveled"

Virginia State Police say Deeds' 24-year-old son Gus stabbed him multiple times in the head and upper body after a fight at their Bath County home Tuesday morning. Gus died at the home of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
UVA Medical Center says Deeds is in good condition - that's an upgrade from fair. His family members were at the hospital with him Wednesday, regrouping and trying to make sense of what police say was an attempted murder-suicide.
Virginia State Police released more information Wednesday about the events that unfolded at Deeds' home following the investigation.
Virginia State Police now say Deeds and his son, Gus, had a fight outside their house on the Deeds' property in Bath County.Investigators have recovered what they think was the weapon used to stab the state senator, but state police say the details on the weapon won't be released until the Department of Forensic Evidence confirms it was the weapon.
The Bath County sheriff confirms deputies were called to the Deeds' home Monday morning for a non-emergency call for assistance. No arrest was made and no charges were filed Monday.
Reportedly, an emergency custody order was issued for Gus Deeds to undergo a mental health evaluation Monday, but he was sent home. The head of the Inspector General Program for Behavioral Health in Virginia says an investigation is underway to find out exactly why he was allowed to be released. Some media outlets were told there were not enough beds, but the Washington Post has reported three nearby psychiatric hospitals did have beds available for him.The Medical Examiner's Office in Roanoke conducted an autopsy on Gus Wednesday morning. State police say the autopsy confirmed that Gus' gunshot wound was self-inflicted and fired from a rifle.
Police say state law prohibits any kind of firearm registration except for a machine gun so it is still undetermined who owned the gun. Police say the 911 recordings from Tuesday's incident will not be released because they are part of an ongoing investigation.
Creigh Deeds is a state senator who represents the 25th District, which includes parts of Albemarle, Nelson, Bath, Rockbridge and Allegheny counties. He was first elected to the district in 2001. In 2009 he was the Democratic nominee for governor beating Terry McAuliffe in the primary but losing to Republican Bob McDonnell in the general election. In 2005 he unsuccessfully ran for Virginia attorney general.
Virginia State Police Press Release
November 20, 2013: RICHMOND, Va. – The Virginia State Police and Bath County Sheriff's Office continue to evaluate the evidence collected in the wake of Tuesday's tragic incident at the Bath County residence of State Senator Creigh Deeds.
At 7:25 a.m. Tuesday (Nov. 19, 2013), Virginia State Police troopers and Bath County Sheriff's deputies responded to a 911 call at a residence at 26 Vineyard Drive in Millboro, Va.
During the course of the ongoing criminal investigation, state police has determined that Senator Deeds, 55, and his son, Austin C. "Gus" Deeds, 24, had an altercation outside of their residence on the Deeds' property. Deeds was stabbed multiple times about the head and torso. Deeds then left the scene on foot. As he was coming down the hill of his residence towards Route 42, the injured senator was spotted and picked up by a cousin who was driving along Route 42.
The two drove to the cousin's residence where rescue responded. Senator Deeds was flown to the University of Virginia Medical Center in Charlottesville, Va., for treatment of serious injuries. The senator is still at the hospital at this time and, as of Wednesday afternoon (Nov. 20), listed in good condition.
Gus Deeds was found inside the residence suffering from a life-threatening gunshot wound. Despite efforts by troopers and other first responders, he died at the scene. An autopsy and examination by the Office of the Medical Examiner in Roanoke, Va., confirmed the gunshot wound was self-inflicted and fired from a rifle.
A weapon believed to have been used in the stabbing of Senator Deeds was recovered at the scene yesterday. The type of weapon will not be released until the Virginia Department of Forensic Evidence makes confirmation of whether or not it was used in the attack.
The investigation remains ongoing at this time by the Virginia State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation's Salem Field Office with the assistance of the Bath County Sheriff's Office.
In response to inquiries about whether the Bath County Sheriff's Office had responded previously to the Deeds' residence: The Sheriff's Office did respond to 26 Vineyard Drive on Monday (Nov. 18) to a non-emergency call for assistance. No arrest was made or any charges placed. Prior to Monday, the Sheriff's Office has no record of any 911 or non-emergency calls to that residence.

text: Giving you a brief rundown of where I stand, I thought "Beginning" and "Melissa" were good. I did NOT like "Don't Break the Oath." I thought "In the Shadows" defined the term 'major comeback.' "Time" was an interesting gentler side of Mr. Diamond. "Into the Unknown" was an uneven record, but it did have its moments. Well, on "Dead Again," guitarist Mike Denner was replaced with Mike Wead. (This leaves King Diamond and Hank Shermann as the only remaining original members.) While some people will obviously miss Mike Denner, Mike Wead actually fills the spot well, and the truth is, "Dead Again" may actually be Mercyful Fate's best record! This is arguably the strongest lineup Mercyful Fate had and King's vocals are in outstanding shape. 'Torture' is a powerful opener with frightening lyrics and a driving edge. 'The Night' has a dark tone made more prevalent by the guitar work. Songs of lost love are not too common on Mr. Diamond's records, but 'Since Forever' is a frighteningly well put together track that convincingly combines sorrow and rage. (On this song, the team work of Shermann and Wead is really prevalent.) 'The Lady Who Cries' is less intense, but it is still dark and haunting. On 'Banshee,' Mr. Diamond shows us yet again, that sometimes softer and more quiet = more eerie. 'Mandrake' is a good song that releases the tension for a moment. 'Sucking Your Blood' is a surprisingly frightening song that is told from the eyes of a vampire. The real terror begins with 'Dead Again.' Skillfully preceeded by some soft classical guitar, Mr. Diamond unleashes 13 minutes of different types of music unified by lyrics portraying someone wandering through different images of death, and of course Mr. Diamond's unusual talent for organization. As far as Hank Shermann and Mike Wead's guitar work, I can honestly say they may not get the kudos that Eddie Van Halen, Jim Hendrix, or Steve Vai get, but Shermann and Wead are the better guitarists. 'Fear' is an almost thrash song that follows 'Dead Again' as well as could have been expected. The record has a real intense and frightening end with 'Crossroads.' Shermann and Wead again show that this may be the best guitar tandem that King Diamond ever had. And of course King's vocals are unleashed full blast for this final track of terror. Generally, I try to understand the different opinions of others. But I honestly wonder how anyone could call this a weak record on Mercyful Fate's part. The lyrics, the music itself, King's vocals, and King's lineup, are all nothing short of phenomenal on this record. So much so, that not only is "Dead Again" arguably their best record, but it sounds like it was meant to be revenge on alternative, rapp, grunge, and sell outs. Don't be swayed by the negative revews. You will miss out on this record of intense musical terror!

We combined three of the biggest "rivalry" wins for East Carolina for our number two slot in our list of the greatest games in Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium history.
Two wins over North Carolina State and a victory over North Carolina rank all rank among the best games ever played at Dowdy-Ficklen.
In 1999, East Carolina beat N.C. State 23-6 led by future NFL star David Garrard. Garrard iced the game with a late touchdown run.
In 2007, kicker Ben Hartman overcame three missed field goals to boot the gamewinner on the last play of the game as East Carolina beat UNC 34-31. Pirate coach Skip Holtz told his struggling kicker a bad joke to help him relax before the winning kick.
In 2010, freshman defensive back Damon Magazu intercepted a Russel Wilson pass in overtime as East Carolina beat North Carolina State, 33-27.
We ranked the trio of games for our number two position in our list of the greatest games in the stadium's history.
The Final Score compiled its list to honor Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium, which turns 50 this year.

This week's schedule features four games vs. Pac-12 teams: UCLA at Nebraska; Ohio State at Cal; Wisconsin at Arizona State; Illinois vs. Washington at Chicago. But recent history tells us the Pac-12 should win these games.
Tom Mulhern of the Wisconsin State Journal notes that the Big Ten had a 5-20 record in true road games against the Pac-12 dating back to 2000, but the pendulum might finally be swinging the other way. After going 0-3 at Pac-12 opponents last season, the Big Ten is 1-0 this season, with Northwestern winning at California in the opener. Nebraska and Wisconsin have the toughest tasks. In fact, Arizona State is 8-0 against Big Ten teams in Sun Devil Stadium, winning those games by an average of 40 to 13.9.
How desperate is Michigan State's Mark Dantonio to figure out his quarterback conundrum? True freshman Damion Terry is taking reps with the second team this week behind Connor Cook, the starter.
Hey, I like it. At least Dantonio is showing a willingness to try anything to kick start this moribund offense. Possible negative consequences? Heck, there are many. But Dantonio has to try something. Bravo!
Oklahoma State is the centerpiece of a Sports Illustrated exposure that alleges wide-spread misconduct in the program.
Illinois coach Tim Beckman once was the defensive coordinator for the Cowboys from 2007-08 under Mike Gundy. But he told Steve Greenberg of the Chicago Sun-Times that he did nothing wrong.
So there is that. Whew!
Tough blow for Minnesota, as Briean Boddy-Calhoun has been lost for the season with a torn ACL.
He was playing the best among the Gophers cornerbacks, so this is a blow. Derrick Wells and Eric Murray need to step up their games for a defense that has shown some promise through two games.
Rick Brown of HawkCentral.com says the Iowa offense is in need of discipline.
Brown notes that the Hawkeyes' offense looks downright acceptable through two games. Iowa is averaging 474.5 yards of total offense, up from 310.4 a year ago. Three pass plays have gone for 40 or more yards; there were two in the entire 2012 season. And after averaging 67 plays a game last season, Iowa's up-tempo, no-huddle attack has gotten off 83 plays against Northern Illinois and 86 a week later against Missouri State.
The numbers yell progress. But penalties and dropped passes have made it hard for Iowa to build momentum and develop confidence. Ten penalties last week against Missouri State turned a dominating performance on paper into a struggle on the field.
Mlive.com tackles Michigan's issue of the week: Can the defensive line rebound after a shaky start?
Michigan's defensive line has one sack (Mario Ojemudia) in the team's 2-0 start, one year after having just 12 as a group last season. This won't be a top-shelf defense until the line can get some heat and sacks.
Penn State is challenged to manage a roster that has about 65 scholarship players. Audrey Snyder of Pennlive.com has a nice piece on how the staff decides who to redshirt and who to play among the freshmen.
"We look at our depth and where we're at injury wise and all those things and say okay, is this guy a red light, a green light or a yellow light?" Bill O'Brien said. "If he's a red light that means that as it relates to freshmen, we're not playing him no matter what happens. If he's a yellow light, that means hey, look it depends on what happens. If two or three guys go down then this guy is going to have to play.
"If he's a green light, he's playing. We definitely communicate with the player and try to communicate with the parents as it relates to what we're thinking about the player."
It looks like Nebraska is getting a grasp on its tackling.
Why are the Huskers confident? Three reasons.
1. Better technique
2. More team speed
3. Fresher athletes
OK. This is all well and good. Now, go out and hold UCLA to around 350 yards of offense and 24 points in a win on Saturday. THEN I'll believe all of that. You know what they say: Action, not words.
Yes, Indiana got beat last week vs. Navy. But developing a program is a process. And one area that needs to keep developing is the defense.
Players like tackle Darius Latham and safety Antonio Allen are among six freshmen listed on the Hoosiers' defensive depth chart. The others are linebackers T.J. Simmons, Marcus Oliver and Clyde Newton, and redshirt tackle Ralphael Green. Another top freshman is former Pike defensive end David Kenney, who fell behind in training camp but did play in the opener against Indiana State.
I like these young players. They just have to grow up—quickly—these next two weeks vs. Bowling Green and Missouri. IU can't lose both of these games and hope to go bowling.
Cal's offense plays at a go-go, break-neck tempo that can wear out defenses. And the Bears think some defenses fake injuries to slow down a Cal offense that has run a national-best 194 plays. Would Ohio State do such a thing?
"There'll be none of that faking stuff," linebacker Joshua Perry said. "Just go out there and play the game that we play."
OK, I'll be watching.
On the subject of Ohio State, Urban Meyer is "fairly optimistic" that Braxton Miller will play at Cal on Saturday.
Even if he doesn't, OSU will be fine with Kenny Guiton at the controls.
#Huskers DC John Papuchis said he probably watched film from 36-30 loss to UCLA last yr about 20 times. "We've studied it inside and out"—
Rich Kaipust (@RKaipustOWH) September 11, 2013
My take: I bet he had some nightmares, too.
Dantonio's so desperate at QB because he knows: His defense is so good, just an passable QB performance could mean a Rose Bowl run.—
Samuel McKewon (@swmckewonOWH) September 10, 2013
My take: That's what makes MSU's struggles under center all the more frustrating.
Kalis said he was obsessed w/Steve Hutchinson, watching videos of him at UM. Today Hutch was at practice giving Kalis tips. "I was shaking"—
Mark Snyder (@Mark__Snyder) September 10, 2013
My take: Well, Kyle Kalis has a chance to be a great one, too.
UM DC Greg Mattison said he has more pride in this defense as any he's had because they're so young and still executing—
Mark Snyder (@Mark__Snyder) September 10, 2013
My take: The best is yet to come, too.
"We're not going to win games consistently playing the way we did Saturday." Kirk Ferentz stating the obvious.—
Pat Harty (@PatHarty) September 10, 2013
My take: Ding, ding! Fewer penalties and dropped passes would help.

They are our brothers and sisters, colleagues, neighbours, friends...they can be found in all echelons of society...they are one of us...yet, for many, the mere mention of their sexual orientation can prompt reactions of disgust and hate.
Condemned by large sects of society, including many of you, their preference is often considered sinful and vile.

I could hit the Powerball tomorrow, and his death would still be the best thing to happen ever. And when he dies, I'll go to his grave with a bottle of Jameson to pour over it. However, first, I'll mix it with Pepsi, and then I'll pass it through my kidneys. Then, despite having given up smoking, I will dig him up and use his skull as an ashtray.

Perfect Holiday Dates
Date night done festive.
You could go out to dinner again, or go see another movie (snooze), but why? Switch it up this holiday season and think outside the date box. We have a few suggestions that'll keep you two gettin' busy.
Go ice skating: Take advantage of the icy weather and slip on some skates. A twirl around the rink with some holiday music and a cup of hot cocoa, and you'll both be triple-toe-looping your way to great night.
Take a romantic drive: Flip on the all holiday radio station and take a tour of other people's Christmas-lights. Find a house that's particularly pretty? Put it in park and enjoy.
Go Christmas shopping: Take a task that might otherwise feel like a chore and make it into a fun hangout. Shop, chat, and keep each other sane when the holiday shoppers get stressful. Added bonus: you'll get to hint at what's on your wish list.
Get snuggly: Build a fire, light some candles and enjoy a meal in. Even if you don't cook, he'll enjoy that he can have you and the Chinese takeout box all to himself.
Get domestic: Have a bunch of holiday cookies to bake this year for your company party? Invite him over to help. The smell of warm gingerbread cookies will win over his heart and his stomach.
Go Broadway: The Nutcracker is a great holiday outing, but it might not be his idea of a great time. Instead, pick a performance that you'll both enjoy. And don't fret about choosing a holiday themed show. It'll be nice to escape the X-mas craze for a night.

Field Hockey: Schneider enjoying the opportunity to give back to Pompton Lakes
POMPTON LAKES - In an effort to give back to a school that gave her one of the best experiences of her life Pompton Lakes Alumni Janelle Schneider has coached the Pompton Lakes freshman girls field hockey team to a 5-4-4 record in her first year.
"It's a flood of emotions, I'm so happy that I was given the opportunity to [coach]. Out of everyone that's played for Pompton to be the one that was picked is the greatest feeling," said Schneider.
Schneider, 21, has been given the sometimes unenviable task of molding the freshman girls into better, more fundamentally sound players. She notes that it can be "nerve-racking" at times trying to instill core sport values in players, but the growth of the players under her tutelage makes it all worth it.
"It's exciting, it's fun, I've always had such a passion for field hockey so to be able to teach the girls all the different things that I've been taught throughout my career it's like what you look forward to in all the years you've put in playing," said Schneider. "You hope that someday you can give back and be able to teach somebody, anyone what you know."
After being named Head Coach at the beginning of the season Schneider proceeded to focus on building an affection for the game with her players and building their relationship. While she says that she would love to instill the love of the game that she has onto all her players, she knows it may not be true in every case.
"I just want them to appreciate the game in the way that I appreciate the game and take it for what it's worth," she said. "I was open for them to ask me any questions, anything just so I can give them all the knowledge I had on the game and the sport so that one day they can love it as much as I do."
Schneider, a 2009 Pompton Lakes Alumni was a staple on the team during her tenure playing under varsity head coach Eileen Allen. Schneider excelled to the level of being named team captain during her senior season something she reflects positively on.
"I will probably remember those four years for the rest of my life," said Schneider. "Pompton Lakes is like a family, those girls were my family and I will remember them for the rest of my life and the memories we've made. I know that I could not talk to half of those girls for days, weeks, years, but the minute we see each other it's like no time has passed."
Schneider is expecting that she will be coaching the freshman team once again in Pompton Lakes next season barring unforeseen changes. She mentioned that this year's team was a pleasant experience for all parties involved.
"We definitely held our own," Schneider said. "I will probably say this for the rest of my life that I had a great group of girls that I coached, I was more than proud of them at the end of the season."
Schneider hopes to achieve similar, or better success with next years incoming freshman team as she claims she has learned a lot in her rookie season as coach.
"I've learned new things this year new ways to teach so I hope that I can be even better next year and hopefully be just as successful as I was this year," Schneider added.

Gators reflect on 'Cats, look ahead to Razorbacks
A number of players from the No. 18/19 Florida Gators (3-1, 2-0 SEC) met with the media throughout the week to discuss team issues and preview Saturday's game against the Arkansas Razorbacks (3-2, 0-1 SEC).
Senior defensive tackle Damien Jacobs
» On senior DT Dominique Easley's mindset: "He's doing pretty good. He's staying positive. I'm trying to keep him positive so everything's going good. Just trying to put him back in that joking mood he's always usually in. He's a big prankster and a big joker so I try to keep him going that way."
» On the opportunity Easley's injury presented for him: "It's a big opportunity because I'm going to have way more reps than I thought I was going to have this year. This is my last year also, so it's a big opportunity for me to put myself on the market. Me and him talked about that last week. He told me not to miss out on it."
» On Arkansas' offense: "Physical, they're real physical. I think they're a little chippy, a little dirty, so we're going to have to be ready for all that this week."
» On how the Razorbacks are dirty: "I just see from film a lot of the stuff after the play. Especially with the center, number 64, he'll get after you after the play. He'll make you want to do some things to him. So we're going to have to try to keep our temper and keep cool on that. Just hit them in the mouth first. Just keep hitting them until they quit. That's how you do it."
Redshirt junior linebacker Michael Taylor
» On what he says when he trash talks: "You guys couldn't handle that so I can't really say that in here. If y'all mic me up, you might find out."
» On whether Arkansas' center is 'dirty' like Jacbos said: "I haven't seen 'dirty.' I've seen that he finishes plays. All that talk of 'dirty,' if somebody's trying to come block you, if you don't let them get into your body there's no way they can block you. Using good hands, keeping them away from you. Anything he would try to do, if it was dirty, would be negated because he can't even touch you."
» On the Hogs also trash talking: "So, we'll have a lot of fun. … That's how I've always played. I've always played with a lot of emotion. I love the game of football so I'm going to be out there, I'm going to be passionate about what I'm playing. I'm going to let you know what I'm finna do and I'm gonna do it. So that's just how I like to play."
» On Arkansas' physicality: "We're a physical team as well, so, we go again physical opponents every day in practice. We bang in practice. Not on Thursdays and Fridays because it's close to the game, but we bang all the way up until [that]. It's not going to be nothing we're not prepared for."

West Oakland's Bike Man: an interview wit Bikes 4 Life owner Tony Coleman
Bikes 4 Life Annual Peace Ride on Saturday, July 24, begins at Lake Merritt, 468 Perkins St., at 7:30 p.m., and rides to Revolution Café, 1610 Seventh St., West Oakland, for a movie at 8:30 p.m. Join hundreds of riders coming together in unity!
Update: Scroll down for a new video and message from Tony Coleman – It's now the Peace from Police Ride!
by Minister of Information JR
The founder of One Fam and Bikes 4 Life is a veteran non-profit organizer operating in the Lower Bottoms of West Oakland, with over a decade of experience under his belt. From the depths of the hellish conditions of street life, to a stint in prison, to being seen as expendable by one of the white left's Black mascots after his face and work were used as a front for social and political opportunists to advance, Tony Coleman has seen the intestines of the beast. Let's see what he has to say …
M.O.I. JR: Can you tell us what made you start Bikes 4 Life? Where is it located?
Tony Coleman: I started Bikes 4 Life as a project of One Fam in West Oakland, because my kids and I have lived here for a decade and I feel it's important for local residents to own and run businesses right where we live, to build our economy and strengthen the community. What inspired me to open a bicycle shop was the success One Fam and I had organizing annual bike peace rides from Lake Merritt to West Oakland's DeFremery Park (Lil' Bobby Hutton Park).
M.O.I. JR: What has the impact of Bikes 4 Life been in the West Oakland community?
Tony Coleman: The Bikes 4 Life Bicycle Shop has had a tremendous impact. The full spectrum enjoys the space from your typical artist "Hipsters," mostly white, that enjoy road bikes and fixies and stop in to utilize the free bike kitchen to work on their bikes, to turf hustlers that come and have their GT bmx bikes worked on. Chrome 24-inch GTs have become so popular in West Oakland that Bikes 4 Life inspired some regulars to start a GT bike club and they're planning to be in full force at the annual peace ride.
M.O.I. JR: What kind of activities is Bikes 4 Life involved in?
Tony Coleman: Bikes 4 Life organized a neighborhood bike ride that was also a historic tour of the neighborhood, complete with historians and guides informing the riders of the rich history, including as the birthplace of the Black Panthers and the Pullman Porters and the 100-year history of DeFremery Park (Lil Bobby Hutton Park). A member of the historical society of DeFremery Park gave a presentation. The bike ride attracted over 75 local diverse residents, many of whom might have never met if not for the ride.
Another activity that B4L is planning is the bicycle repair skills competitions. The goal of the competitions is to highlight bicycle mechanic skills. When I was a kid, we used to all get together and fix on bikes without any formal training, just by trial and error – which is good, but now bikes are expensive and we could've benefited from having the proper tools and information that we have now, with all the bikes we ruined with vice-grips as our all-in-one tool. When you have the right tools and know how to use them, it's actually fun and rewarding. B4L has become that resource that organizes fun bike activities and competitions, striving to inspire the mechanic in us all.
M.O.I. JR: Can you tell us about the Bikes 4 Life event in July coming up?
Tony Coleman: We're super excited about our annual event July 24. The Bikes 4 Life Annual Peace Ride brings people together from all over Oakland and the Bay Area to take part in a collective healthy activity and calling for more peace in the streets. There is something special about seeing 300 riders coming together to ride around Lake Merritt and through the inner city of Oakland in unity. The B4L ride is one of the most diverse rides in the Bay Area, attracting people from many different backgrounds, and you can see from the looks on bystanders' faces as they pass that it's special. Even along the ride folks are riding and meeting each other, some for the first time, and there seems to be no better feeling.
M.O.I. JR: Can you tell us about some of the non-profit work that you were involved in before Bikes 4 Life?
Tony Coleman: The foundation of One Fam began in 1996 after I led a campaign to get a rogue killer cop fired from SFPD. The cop killed Aaron Williams, an unarmed Black man who was pepper-sprayed and left to die in the back of a paddy wagon. I organized a coalition including Van Jones of the Ella Baker Center that helped put him and others on the map.
What made this so different was the introduction of hip hop activists, due to their unique way of using spoken work when addressing the police commissioners. Their raw street flavor attracted many youth who'd had prior negative interactions with the police, making every hearing the place to be for youth in the community.
After that campaign, the formation of Thirdeye Movement was established, which ended up leading the fight against Prop 21. That was well documented. The organization fell apart due to in-fighting, leaving the controlled funding with the parenting organization, and they later grew into a well established institution, while many of the less educated, less connected were left to pick up the pieces. Some will never engage in politics again, while others still work in the community for other organizations. We just held a 10-year reunion, where many came out and told stories of how the experience shaped their lives. One Fam was born in 2000 in the spirit to resurrect that movement but not to be based around an issue, but unity, therefore going with the name One Family.
M.O.I. JR: What can people do to help Bikes 4 Life? How can they keep in touch with you online?
Tony Coleman: The way people can support One Fam is by donating money, time or writing skills. Since we're an established 501(c)(3), we can apply for funding but, with limited staff, we're often overlooked by more established organizations. We know eventually we'll be able to staff our organization, but we're so excited about the impact we're having now we can't wait for the days when our organization gets the recognition and funding it deserves.
You can help by sending donations to One Fam/ Bikes 4 Life, 1600 Seventh St., Oakland CA 94607, or by buying your quality used bicycles from our shop and bringing your bike in for repair. You can get in touch with us at www.bikes4life.com or (510) 452-2453.

Be a corker to protect the Peace Ride
Richmond Spokes is looking for 15 cyclists who are comfortable with creating a safety buffer for youth and adults on Saturday's Peace Ride. They will present a simple 15 minute safety briefing a half hour before the ride on the grass by Fairyland. They will demonstrate corking, a safe, courteous way to block traffic during large bike rides. For more information on corking, check out Richmond Spokes page: https://sites.google.com/a/richmondspokes.org/about/how-to-cork-on-a-large-group-ride. To RSVP just text "corker" or call (510) 387-7466 or email email@example.com and put "corker" in the subject.
It's now the Peace from Police Ride
The West Oakland-based organization Bikes 4 Life announced today that in honor of Oscar Grant III and all victims of police abuse, the group's third annual peace ride will have a new theme in 2010: Peace from Police. The ride begins Saturday, July 24, 7:30 p.m., at Lakeside Park, tours Lake Merritt and ends at the Bikes 4 Life bike shop, with a Movie Night to close out the evening.
This will be our third annual Peace Ride. As lead organizer Tony Coleman explains, it's easy to say stop the violence, but we have to call for an end to all kinds of violence, including the violence young people of color experience every day at the hands of police.
Coleman also takes issue with the media when it perpetuates stereotypes that justify police abuse, saying Oakland already had a bad reputation. Then on the night of the Mehserle verdict, the media ignored the beautiful, multi-racial, multi-generational Speak Out we had against police brutality and focused instead on property damage later that night. To make matters worse, the police blamed anarchists and outsiders for causing trouble, says Coleman, yet the OPD released 15 pictures of mostly African Americans and expects the public to help identify them.
The Peace from Police ride will once again unite a diverse cross-section of hundreds of Bay Area residents just days after the Oakland and BART police fired over 50 bullets, killing a man near Fruitvale station on July 17, and after former BART officer Mehserle supporters rallied on July 20 in Walnut Creek. Organizers point out that there has been so much gun violence involving the police, even since Oscar's murder on New Year's Day 2009, that the community feels very fearful for their lives and their loved ones if they shall ever come in contact with the police – and this is just wrong, says Rachel Jackson.
The community will never have real peace as long as people are afraid of police, cannot trust those sworn to protect and serve, and have lost faith in the legal system since the Mehserle trial.
Bikes 4 Life's mission is to improve individual lives – prioritizing under-served, at-risk youth – while improving the community, the environment and society. Bikes 4 Life runs a community bike shop, hosts regular historic bike rides through Oakland, leads several community empowerment projects, all while playing a leading role in the justice struggle for Oscar Grant and all victims of police abuse.
The Peace from Police ride is a collaboration with Cycles of Change, Red Bike & Green and P.O.K.E.R. ride. For more information, see www.bikes4life.com or call (510) 452-2453.

You can't miss with well-seasoned lamb chops. The type of chops to use is entirely up to you. I love the way the rack chops look with their long rib bones exposed, but you can use shoulder chops just as well. Figure on two chops per person.
In a small bowl, whisk together all the marinade ingredients. Rub the marinade on the chops, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
Prepare a fire and allow the coals to die down to a medium-hot temperature or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
Cook the chops for 6 to 7 minutes per side or until firm and resilient to the touch for medium, about 5 minutes per side for rare-pink. Make a slit into one of the chops to test for doneness to your liking, but take them off the grill while still slightly pink as they will continue to cook as they rest. Transfer them to a platter and serve with a rosemary sprig on top.
Nutrients per serving (% daily value)
Nutritional information is based on using 3lbs of loin or rib lamb chops.

A couple weeks back, there was a flurry on this blog about education and the degrees gained in the annals of higher learning. I wrote something about testing, Lisa and Page each wrote articles about confident people with degrees and then why that didn't in fact make getting a degree unimportant, we had commentators on either side, it was all very fun to be a fly on the wall for. I think one of the reasons this particular debate hit hard was because as skeptics, we have a bit of a divide between the professionally academic and those of us with… non-traditional education. It is reflected clearly in our skeptical super-stars. On the one hand, we have guys like Phil Plait and doubly doctoral Massimo Pigliucci (is he actually at three now?). On the other hand, we adore Adam Savage and have practically nominated James Randi for skeptical sainthood.
There has been some sniping coming from both sides. Randi has at times stated a certain disdain for those classically trained. I get the impression that he was told to get out of the field a few times and this is his "FU" back. That could just be me. I'm a writer who specializes in drama and I like trying to deduce motivations. On the other end, often I will listen to those from Academia and it can sound like I'm being told that those without degrees should automatically conform to the beliefs of those that do. I am not the only one who has felt this way, I still distinctly remember a year ago at our first SkepticampNYC the question of a man who saw himself as a working-class skeptic who felt he was being kept out of the conversation (go to about two and a half minutes into the video from Skepticamp to be reminded of the question). … continue reading this entry.

Wagner helped document the star for designation
For the 78th year, the Palmer Lake Star will again shine from Sundance Mountain and decorate the front range for the Christmas season. This is the first year the star is listed on the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties.
Unfortunately, Tim Wagner, who was instrumental in work that enabled that designation, won't be able to share in the success in Palmer Lake this year.
"I was a member of the Palmer Lake Historical Society Board with honor of preparing the star's nomination for the register. Many folks assisted me including Tim Wagner, a Palmer Lake surveyor who completed a comprehensive survey of the star back in January 2009. Additionally, just before I met with the State Historical Preservation Board, Tim helped me answer several last minute questions they asked me. Sadly and suddenly, Tim passed away on January 20, 2013, two days after the board unanimously voted to list the Palmer Lake Star as a prestigious Colorado historical site, " Jack Anthony said.
"Tim Wagner's 2009 survey was comprehensive and required him to traipse all over Sundance Mountain with his survey gear. The five-point Palmer Lake Star is comprised of 91 40-watt vibration resistant light bulbs and is built on a 14-acre site on Sundance Mountain. Tim determined Sundance had a 58 percent slope. He sure verified that steepness as he learned every inch of the star. Tim precisely determined the star 404.8 feet tall, 457.3 feet wide and 434.3 feet on the diagonal. He stepped up with his survey skills and passion for the star and helped ensure we were ready for the board with impressive data. Using Tim's survey data I can say the Palmer Lake Star is the largest outdoor star in the world."
The Palmer Lake Volunteer Fire Department's annual chili supper and star lighting is scheduled for Nov. 30 at the town hall.
Anthony created a pamphlet to commemorate Wagner's contribution.
"I dedicate the pamphlet to the memory of Tim Wagner, who knows the star like no one else and who today gazes upon it from heaven above."
Tim's wife, Joy says Tim would have been very excited to share in the success.
"He was a very giving person." Joy said. "It was one of his Legacy projects," adding that he also was working to document rights of way for Palmer Lake all the way from the railroad bridge in Monument through town.
Tim was very proud to have earlier located the long lost center section marker for Palmer Lake Section 5, marked originally when the town was laid out in 1886.

The Restaurant 718, located at Ditmars and 35th St has turned into Francis Cafe. They are putting the finishing touches. Those charming gold leaf looking stickers were being stuck on as I walked by today. You can see some close up pics and get a few more details here on myastoriarealestate.com
Now they just need to lease out the once "Top Tomato" and more recently "Ditmars Farmers Market" (was never a real farmers market anyway) space that has recently become vacant. I heard their rent was 25,000 per month! That's a lot of apples! (sorry, I couldn't resist)
Views: 1237
Walked by this place just a few days ago and saw the old owner inside helping with some renovation. I'm assuming the guy who was always tending bar at 718 was the owner --It was that guy. I just hope the brunch is as good in the new incarnation! :) I miss that French Toast as it is! Best I've had in Astoria.
I agree Bethany, it looks great and if it is the same owners then I am sure the food, wine, and coffee will be excellent.
I believe you are correct Ran. From what I hear it is the same owners .
I think this is still the 718 owners, right? Also, I think Watawa is expanding to the next building--that was the plan 2 years ago.
It looks really nice so far! Anyone have any idea what is opening next to Watawa near 33rd/34th and Ditmars (it has a brick front)?

instagram, real racing 3, temple run coming in May.
I'm excited, are you? Better late than never?
On Instagram, the news is that it is a straight up iOS port with no Lens feature, which may be surprising for those anticipating. Of course, that can later be changed with updates, and this could be a "let's just get it out there" move by Microsoft.http://www.wpcentral.com/real-racing-3-temple-run-and-instagram-windows-phone-coming-may

As this is the day before our biggest (and most terrifying) home game of the year, I thought I would share with all my beloved Boiler faithful some of the basketball commentary I have to listen to at work. I work in a warehouse in IU country. Not only does this take me far from my homeland, it forces me to have sports conversations with those who love the cream and crimson. Here are some excerpts from such conversations in the past week.
"I just think that Farrow kid has really disrupted the chemistry of the team. We need Hull out there for his shootin"
"Boy that Odillathapo kid sure is a killer isn't he?"'
"Well, it would be nice if that colored kid who usually doesn't hit threes but hit that three against Kentucky could hit the three more"
"They have to keep Zellers involved on offense, we need Hull and Zellers playing well together to be successful."
"Man if he had 5 or 6 of them Odillathapos out there we'd be unbeatable!"
Keep in mind I have corrected these people time and again about the correct pronunciations of all the names above. This is just a snippet of what I deal with on a daily basis. I want to thank you, the H&R community for providing me with (mostly) solid basketball analysis and conversation, as I would have gone insane long ago without it. BOILER UP! (pleasepleasepleaseplease beat IU)

Freshman running back Calvinaugh Jones rushed for 186 yards and
sophomore fullback Ben Nester finished off two long drives with
touchdowns as the Concord University football team defeated Glenville
State, 14-9, Saturday on homecoming at Callaghan Stadium.
The nine points allowed by the Concord defense was the lowest scoring output by an opponent this season.
The West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference victory improved
Concord's record to 3-3 overall and 2-2 inside the WVIAC. Glenville
State fell to 2-4 overall and 2-1 in conference competition after the
The Mountain Lions controlled nearly all facets of the game. Concord
held advantages in first downs (18 - 16), total yards (285 - 256),
rushing yards (222 - 123), third down conversion percentage (35.7
percent - 30.7 percent) and time of possession (32:55 – 27:05).
Concord had seven drives that lasted at least six plays thanks to a
rushing attack that saw three players carry the ball at least five times
with Jones doing the heavy lifting with 30 attempts. He averaged an
impressive 6.2 yards per carry. In addition to scoring twice, Nester
also rushed for 28 yards on seven attempts. Nester is the first Concord
player to run for two touchdowns in a game since Brian Kennedy in 2010.
Freshman Jocorey Robins gained 31 yards on six attempts.
Freshman quarterback Albert Rose was 9-of-18 for 63 yards. Senior wide
receiver Ansel Ponder caught four balls for 29 yards. Freshman wide
receiver DJ Holmes also had 29 yards receiving on three catches.
Concord's defensive effort was led by the duo of junior linebacker Jake
Lilly and senior linebacker Howard Jordan. Lilly made a game-high 14
tackles with Jordan not far behind at 13 stops.
The Concord secondary came away with two timely interceptions, one by
senior Kevin Elliott on the first play of the game and the other by
junior Riyahd Richardson when Glenville was at Concord's five-yard line
late in the second quarter. Elliott's INT was his second in as many
games and third of the season.
Points were hard to come by in the first half. After a scoreless first
quarter, Glenville State's Colston Bayless put GSC up 3-0 with a 34-yard
field goal. Two minutes later, Glenville's second kicker, Eddie McKay
booted a 47-yard attempt through the uprights to put the visitors on top
of CU 6-0. The Pioneers took the narrow lead into halftime. The
Mountain Lions were able to keep the margin to just one possession
thanks to Richardson, who grabbed his interception at the goal line with
just 17 seconds remaining in the half.
Concord was not fazed by the deficit and came out of the locker room to
go on a 10-play, 56-yard drive that ended with Nester rumbling in for
his first score of the day. An Andy Ellington extra point gave the
Mountain Lions a 7-6 lead with 10 minutes left in the third quarter.
Three series later, Concord's offense once again mounted a long scoring
drive. This one lasted 12 plays and spanned 75 yards with Nester
finishing it off with a five-yard touchdown. Another Ellington extra
point gave Concord a 14-6 advantage with 10:24 remaining in the fourth
The eight-point lead was more than enough for the Concord defense, which
allowed just Glenville to gain just 25 more yards and score one field
goal for the remainder of the game en route to Concord's 14-9 triumph.
Concord held the ball for 17:32 in the second half.
The Mountain Lions will look to get above the .500 mark with a victory
next Saturday at Seton Hill. Kickoff in Greensburg, Pa. is slated for

In the Eastern Conference, the unspoken truth among all teams not hailing from Miami is that nobody wants to finish 4th or 5th because of the looming threat of Miami in the second round. Makes you think about the playoff structure itself. In the playoffs, when match-ups become critically important, choosing your opponent might be equally important to home court advantage.
Eastern Conference Playoff Outlook
Imagine that the first round works exactly as it currently does: 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, 3 vs 6, 4 vs 5. But consider a wrinkle to the way the second round works. Where there are four teams left in each conference, the new wrinkle would give the choice of opponent to the team's with the highest two remaining seeds in each conference. Assuming the top seeds win in the first round, this would mean that they would be able to choose their opponent in Round 2. If Miami and Oklahoma City had to choose whether or not to face the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th seed (depending on which two teams advanced), that would avoid the playoff maneuvering that often happens in the last two or three weeks of the season. It would take away some of the anticipation of those championship teams likely paths to the Finals, but it would add a level of mystery to the second round, and would also add underlying drama. Imagine this scenario, to end the regular season: The seeds (with games behind) look like this:
The Likely Division Winners
1. Miami
LeBron. Hats off. Incredible season. Making his mark. Loving the 4-spot.
2. New York (7.5)
After tonight's TNT bout with OKC and a home date with Utah, the Knicks are about to embark on a difficult road trip, similar to Boston's recent Western swing, where they face Golden State, Denver, Portland, the Clippers and Utah, over the span of eight days. These next seven games may cut that 5 game cushion in half. Remember, the Celtics play New York two more times at the end of March. If Kidd and Smith can regain that early season touch/swagger, and Felton and Anthony can show the defensive prowess and play-making they had in the first half, the Knicks will survive this stretch. If not, things could get very interesting in the Atlantic.
3. Indiana (8)
Paul George has as much upside as any player in the NBA, but he's still learning. Last night's loss to Boston was an example of what happens when a team doesn't have a pure point guard or a pure 4th-Quarter finisher. Indiana is very dangerous, but still flawed offensively.
The middle bunch
4. Boston (12.5)
5. Atlanta (11)
6. Brooklyn (11.5)
7. Chicago (12)
The log-jam between the 4th and 7th seeds is very much uncertain. Doc Rivers has made it clear that he's going to rest Garnett and Pierce until the playoffs, which might keep the Celtics from winning a game or two, but the invigorated bench play of Jeff Green, Courtney Lee and Terry might keep those losses from happening.

Ducklings brighten up St Richard's Hospice
4:39pm Thursday 24th April 2014 in Local
STAFF at St Richard's Hospice can tell spring is well and truly here, with the arrival of two ducks and approximately 20 ducklings in the central courtyard.
Hospice facilities manager Louise Clive, said: "Everyone loves the ducklings. For about the last four years the ducks have flown from our big pond in the garden, over the In-patient Unit roof and hatched their eggs in the central courtyard which is walled on all sides.
"We look after the ducklings then when they are big enough to look after themselves we have to shepherd them through the hospice building and back round to their new home on the pond.
"Our ducks and ducklings are loved by our patients who can look out of their bedroom windows onto the lake and watch their antics. They are a small part of what makes St Richard's a very special place."

Everyone is fed up with Clancy Pendergast. I know I am. He has taken a bad defense and made them terrible. We have given up records to other guys atleast twice this season. Miles Austin and Jerome Harrison. This has to stop and it stops with Clancy!
Here are some candidates for Defensive Coordinator...
As always please list your suggestions in the comments....
Al Groh - Unemployed
Al Groh is 65yrs old and was recently fired as HC at Virginia. He was there from 2001-2009 and posted a record of 59-53 with a 3-2 Bowl record. Before he landed a job at his alumni he coached with the New York Jets from 1997-2000. 97-99 he was LB coach and was HC in 2000, he went 9-7. Most of you know Todd Haley was employed by the Jets from 1995-2000. So the connection is layed down. Groh also has a 13yr working history with Bill Parcells. Before the Jets he was Defensive Coordinator for the Patriots from 1993-1996. Groh is a big time 3-4 guy. He even implemented the 3-4 defense at Virginia. Most College coaches dont run that type of defense.
Dick Jauron - Unemployed
Dick Jauron is 59yrs old. He was most recently fired as HC of the Buffalo Bills where he was 24-33 from 2006-2009. In 2004 he was DC for the Detroit Lions and in 2005 he was DC/Intirim HC and posted a 1-4 record. From 1999-2003 he was HC of the Chicago Bears and was 35-45 overall. This is where he worked with Todd Haley from 2001-2003. Before Chicago, Jauron was DC for the Jacksonville Jaguars expansion team from 95-98 with Tom Caughlin.
Pepper Johnson - Defensive Line Coach - New England Patriots
Pepper Johnson is 45yrs old. Pepper Johnson started his coaching career in New England in 2000 as Assistant LB coach. From 2001-2003 he was Inside LB Coach and from 2004 until now he is the Defensive Line Coach. The Patriots employ a 3-4 defense. Pepper has coached the most important parts of the defense in LB and DL. Pepper has ties with Scott Pioli while both being in New England. Pepper played for the Jets from 97-98 while Haley was there. He also was with the 1990 SB winning Giants playing ILB in their 34 D....that team had a FB by the name of Maurice Carthon. Bill Parcells connection. He was on the 1986 SB winning Giants but was not a starter...again with Mo Carthon and Bill Parcells. Bill Belichick was the DC of both winning teams.

CLAYTON — Four teachers at the Mill Creek Community School Corporation were notified of their fates after an executive session of the school board Monday night.
Head track coaches Nicholas Puckett and Rosie Fakes, along with assistants Josh Hagenow and Sean Adams, were placed on paid administrative leave.
All four returned to their classrooms on Tuesday, according to a press release from Superintendent Dr. Patrick Spray.
Last week the coaches punished some of their student athletes for missing a practice by having them "bear crawl" around the track. Some of those athletes came away with blisters, burns, and open sores on their hands.
The school corporation immediately opened an investigation and all four coaches were asked to resign their coaching positions.
Spray released the following statement:
"The corporation investigation regarding the incident at track practice on May 1, 2013, has been completed. After gathering and investigating facts surrounding the incident that occurred, it has been determined that there was no intent to cause harm to students. The teachers have admitted the poor judgment in their decisions on May 1, and have since recognized and taken ownership of their actions.
"These teachers are back in the classroom today (Tuesday) with the focus moving forward on effective teaching and student learning. There was no evidence from the facts gathered or from the teachers' classroom history that the extra-curricular incident that occurred would carry over to the classroom.
"The coaches accept the consequences of their actions including being relieved of their coaching positions and the public scrutiny that has followed. They also acknowledge that the corporation does not condone reprimands or punishments that result or may result in physical injury as a part of our extracurricular programs."
Following the incident in question last Wednesday, the school held a parent and athlete meeting on Thursday to discuss the controversy.

|yeah, you would think they would have turned out a more interesting take on the girl group sound. i mean shit man, there were girl groups way back when that already had far more interesting sounds than this one. it's like little girls playing dress up; they're cute and everything, but you would never mistake them for the real deal. however, the second track is hell of catchy.
|Posted 07/18/2006 - 04:18:20 PM by AKMoose:
|This review is a joke. You mention the fucking Wu-Tang Clan in the first sentence, but don't prove you even know the name of a Pipettes song until the end of the fourth paragraph. Useless.
|Posted 07/18/2006 - 09:18:46 PM by allison1:
|That's because the review is emphasizing what makes this album basically disappointing, despite an endearing premise. Actually, this review articulated my reaction to the band quite fucking well.
|Posted 07/18/2006 - 09:33:55 PM by adentice:
|People who continue to go on to these comments pages and complain that the review "doesn't talk about the music, maaan", are really starting to annoy me. There are hundreds of places you can go to get a by-the-numbers take on how an album sounds, hell meta-crtic fucking combines them in one easy click. So stop ranting about reviewers who try to be a bit different and entertaining. Wankers.
|Posted 07/18/2006 - 11:05:29 PM by barbarian:
|anyone who would think this could even be good is either gay or dumb. no offense to gay people or dumb people intended at all.
|Posted 07/19/2006 - 01:46:46 AM by AKMoose:
|Forgive me for expecting a music review to make at least a passing reference to music. This wasn't different or entertaining. This was psuedo-intellectual drivel trying to analyze a piece of pop music with masturbatory cross-references to English major friends and unrelated hip-hop groups. Walk dog, walk dog? What the fuck?
|Posted 07/19/2006 - 06:02:49 PM by astronaut:
|I think you fail to remember that every other girl group single from the "Heyday" was easily as lukewarm and hit-or-miss as this album as this album as a whole. 40 years weeds out the weaker ones. To bring a comparison of a debut album from one group to the Girl Group Greatest Hits of the 60s is unfair. Sure, it's got some serious duds, but "Pull Shapes", "Your Kisses are Wasted on Me", "Sex", and "Judy" might as well enter the canon.
|Posted 07/20/2006 - 11:37:05 AM by CosmicMo:
|I think the whole point of The Pipettes is that they are NOT meant to be taken seriously. Yes, they are "like little girls playing dress up; they're cute and everything". They are light and fun. And that's it. "But you would never mistake them for the real deal"? I don't know. What's the real deal? They entertain me and they engage me. That's a real enough deal for me. Ps: I haven't found the review informative enough either.
|Posted 07/26/2006 - 04:21:35 PM by barbarian:
|Yeah, the review sucks, but this is Stylus Magazine. All the reviews here are terrible. As far as The Pipettes go, they are too insignificant to dislike, yet catchy and fun. As usual, however, music this light gets old fast. Even though the girls are cute, I'm not interested in another album from them. Hell, you don't have to hear more than a minute of a song to get their entire gist. If it is fun for you, enjoy yourself. If it isn't fun for you, close your eyes and they will disappear.
|Posted 07/26/2006 - 04:23:19 PM by barbarian:
|Oh, a gimmick girl pop group! My fav. genre...

What Fall android phone to buy?
So I am about to get the iphone 5 in the mail. I think I am going to return it and get an android phone.
I love the size of my friend's GS3. When it comes to technology for me I like buying the newest thing on the market - mostly for updated specs. The GS3 has been on the market for 100+ days so I consider it old with that mindset.
I primarily want the new phone to be released with Jelly Bean or 4.2 and LTE.
So it seems that the only phone that I could want that is coming out before the end of the year is the HTC OneX+.
The nexus 4 is unfortunately not a choice due to the lack of LTE. The optimus doesn't have Jelly Bean.
I wish Samsung would release a SG3+ with a quad core w/LTE in the states.
Any recommendations or idea if there are any other secret android phones being released in late november/december.
