Paul Hindemith and Music Inspired by a Masterpiece of Art
German-born composer Paul Hindemith based his most famous musical work of art on a Renaissance masterpiece, the Isenheim Alterpiece of Mattias Grunewald. The opera Mathis der Mahler (Matthias the Painter), from 1935, is about the struggle of the artist during a turbulent time of the Protestant Reformation. This evening on Symphony @ 7, we'll have [...]
Arianna Quartet Performs Peruvian-Inspired String Quartet Sunday
As a kid learning how to play the piano, composer Gabriela Lena Frank says, "I would try and make my Beethoven sound a little more Peruvian by adding flourishes that the guitar players might use, or accents in a way that was reminiscent of what pan pipe players might do." The unique sounds of Peruvian music would later find their way into Frank's Leyendas: An Andean Walkabout, part Peruvian travelogue, part family history recounting in the genre of the string quartet Frank's first trip to her mother's homeland.

Los Angeles Kings v Toronto Maple Leafs (Air Canada Centre)
Time: 4.30 PM
TV: NHL Network, Fox Sports West
Enemy reading: The Leafs Nation
Leafs (projected) lineup:
van Riemsdyk-Kadri-Kessel
NOT MARTIN JONES Bernier
Injured: David Bolland, Tyler Bozak, Colton Orr; Scratched: Morgan Rielly, Carter Ashton, Troy Bodie; Suspended: Neon Dion
Kings (projected) lineup:
- The Legend of Martin Jones, you guys. Part of me wished he'd retired after last night's game just so he could be like "yeah, 67 per cent of my NHL starts were shutouts. DEAL WITH IT." and then run off into the night. Martin Jones for Calder, Vezina, Hart - and Jack Adams too, while we're at it.
- True story: the only things I care about in this entire world are Martin Jones and the fact that I will be seeing the Kings in person tonight, so that's pretty much all I have to preview.
- Okay, fiiiiine, I'll talk about the Leafs. They are not very good.
- (You want more?)
- They're probably not as bad as you think they are, though. I mean, yes, they have no top defensive pairing, which means they're on pace to give up more shots in 82 games than any other team in recorded NHL history. But they've gotten steady scoring and phenomenal goaltending, which means they are actually still in playoff position in the no-good very-bad East.
- Injuries may have actually benefited the Leafs, as Tyler Bozak's absence has kept the superior (in terms of hockey skills and also not-being-racist skills) Nazem Kadri at 1C, the wholly ineffectual Colton Orr has been kept off the ice, call-up Trevor Smith has actually been quite effective offensively, and freshly-acquired Patrick Holland is better than whatever they had going on there before, I guess.
- I'm sad that we're going to miss out on Jonathan Bernier v Ben Scrivens drama. I'm even more sad that, all joking aside, rookie Martin Jones is being forced to play back-to-back games when the Kings have another perfectly competent, rested (allegedly healthy) goaltender available. "The hot hand" is not a thing that exists, statistically speaking, and I am not particularly excited to see Phil Kessel breaking in alone on Martin Jones - neither should you be.
- The Kings line up the same as they did last night against the Habs. I'm guessing Coach Sutter will want to wait to re-insert Matt Greene when the Kings get a bit of breathing room and can re-set, but who even knows why or how he does anything ever. #StayFreedAlecMartinez
- Oh, also, the Leafs powerplay is very good and their penalty kill is very bad while the Kings are obviously the reverse, so special teams match-ups tonight will probably be pretty funny, if nothing else.
- ~Fun With Numbers~:
- Prediction: Kings win by a lot, I shriek a lot, and also pay a lot for beer. Happy Kings day to me!!

- Starring: Benicio Del Toro, Michael Douglas
- Summary: Traffic evokes the high stakes and high risks of the drug trade, as seen through a series of interrelated stories, some of which are highly personal and some of which are filled with intrigue and danger. (USA Films)
- Director: Steven Soderbergh
- Genre(s): Drama, Thriller, Crime
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 31 out of 34
Mixed: 3 out of 34
Negative: 0 out of 34
In the scorching new film Traffic, director Steven Soderbergh captures the hypocrisy -- and tragedy -- of the nation's unwinnable war on drugs. Traffic is a huge, determined movie in every way.
Soderbergh's story, from a screenplay by Stephen Gaghan, cuts between these characters so smoothly that even a fairly complex scenario remains clear and charged with tension.
Traffic doesn't quite come to a full emotional boil at the end. Soderbergh is too knowing to offer easy solutions. But what a journey it takes us on: disturbing, exciting, completely absorbing.
Where Traffic stumbles is in its inability to engage the heart with the same fervor it engages the intellect.
You could get high on this movie's technique, dizzy on its storytelling. Yet it's one of the most lucid bad trips ever made.
Score distribution:
Positive: 29 out of 33
Mixed: 1 out of 33
Negative: 3 out of 33
Aug 2, 2012A true thriller at it's best. This is a film charged with tension, drama, and suspense. Not to mention the truly inspiring and detailed story it delivers. Overall a great screenplay that manages to swiftly switch between different scenarios and keep every story engaging, as well as easy to follow. Not to be missed.… Expand
Jul 9, 2012Steven Soderbergh, the master of narrative, creates a drug, crime film the way one should be made. What
Apr 11, 2013Brilliant, simply brilliant. Well composed script, compelling, engaging but also emotional and at times disturbing. This film succeeds in conforming well to the "hyperlink" genre and exploring both process and effect of drug trafficking. It also succeeds in establishing some homogeny between Mexican and
American societies whilst attacking the divide that exists between the respective societies. The acting is superb, Benicio del Toro avoids melodrama, remaining collected but also seemingly effortlessly drawing viewers into some emotional attachment with his character. Brilliant performances also by Michael Douglas, Don Cheadle and Catharine Zeta Jones.… Expand
May 23, 2013Traffic is a brilliant collection of stories involving strong characters and gripping story-lines, sometimes brutal and tragic; a drugs film told with intoxicating panache, all without becoming too-heavy, which is refreshing in a pool full of films such as Less Than Zero, Requiem for a Dream and Blow. There are stints of hope in Traffic, yet it wisely restricts this hope in its acknowledgement that no matter what anybody does, drugs are an unshakable part of modern life; you can cut it down, but there's no stopping it.

Nov 28, 2012Easily one of the greatest ensemble pieces in cinematic history, "Traffic" represents everything that many other films have tried and failed to do - It crafts an utterly breathtaking film featuring a wide array of characters that the audience never forgets nor stops caring about.… Expand
Aug 25, 2014This is a film where you do not have to be into drugs. Sodenbergh seems to have put a magic spell on this material, because the movie is done very well.… Expand

The irx3™ Wavefront Aberrometer is an attractively priced, precision diagnostic instrument that combines a wide range of functionalities into a single, stand-alone solution that responds to a multitude of user requirements.
Polyvalence and precision rolled into one
The irx3 unites the functions of a host of ophthalmic diagnostic instruments into one package, potentially helping to make examinations faster and more reliable. Using the same device to objectively measure refraction, keratometry, pupilometry and accommodative ability can help to control variations in data inherent to using multiple measurement devices.
With 1024 true optical measurement points (no software interference from interpolated enhancement of the wavefront data) and exceptionally wide dynamic range of ±10D astigmatism and -16/+20D sphere, the irx3 is considered by many customers to be the most precise ocular wavefront diagnostic tool available. Thanks to Imagine Eyes patented "one-shot" Shack-Hartmann technology, the irx3 offers exceptional repeatability of 0.003 D RMS (1) in the laboratory conditions that customers are accustomed to.
Users have complete control of essential measurement parameters including fixation distance, wavefront sampling area, aberration coefficients scaling as well as the number of steps and distance between them during accommodation assessment. The irx3 also provides natural pupil analysis by eliminating circular truncation of the wavefront data.
Seamless workflow integration
The irx3's proprietary software interface is designed to adapt to the varied needs and workplaces of our customers from academic researchers to clinical investigators. Subject data files are easily created and accessed through a conveniently placed file list that enables users to quickly find and compare data from different patients or from multiple examinations on the same patient.
Users can chose the way examination data and measurement units are displayed to best meet their needs and practices, choosing between familiar diopter based power maps or more detailed precision wavefront maps displayed in microns. Measurements can be evaluated in traditional expressions including sphere, cylinder and axis of rotation, or using advanced analysis functions including MTF, PSF and Zernike coefficients displayed as polynomial forms.
The irx3 is available as a turnkey solution, or in OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) for for third-party manufactures, integrators and others that want to harness its unique features to build their own ocular wavefront analysis devices.

News: Play-N-Skillz On Lil Wayne's "Carter 3" LP, "D*mn Near Every Producer On That Album Has Not Been Paid" [Video]
Tuesday, Sep 22, 2009 2:00PM
Tha Carter 3 producers Play-N-Skillz recently spoke on their pending compensation issues with Lil Wayne for production on the multi-platinum selling album and revealed that a majority of producers are still waiting to be paid.
Aside from saying there are no harsh feelings towards Weezy, the duo also said a lawsuit was never filed against Cash Money or Young Money.
"It's not officially settled, but I'm going to say we took massive steps forward to get everything resolved," they revealed in an interview. "There was never really a lawsuit, I don't know where that one really [went] left field. We were never officially suing Lil Wayne and Young Money and Cash Money, it was just we were at a producer conference and we were giving advice to young producers and I'ma say it again. Sometimes, you gotta just jump out into the water without a life vest and just go and do what you gotta do to survive. And that's what we did, we had the opportunity to be on an album like Carter 3, we'll arrange it later on, we gonna get it fixed. We handle all the paper work, that's not the case like we didn't handle our business, it's just the checks haven't been cut. Not just for Play-N-Skillz, but d*mn near every producer on that album has not been paid, you know what I'm saying? It's just a bunch of sample bullsh*t and everything else that's going on, so shout-out to Wayne, Young Money, Cash Money, it's all good daddy, let's do another one." (Real Talk NY)
Speaking with DJ Bay Bay earlier this year, the producers said Weezy should not be at fault for them not yet being compensated for records like "Got Money."
"First off, shout-out to Wayne and everybody because it's really kinda a misunderstanding," they explained. "There is no lawsuit as we speak, we working everything out. But the whole thing is we had not been compensated for it right now, we haven't been paid but sometimes it takes time for paperwork to be done...The music business right now just don't like to pay nobody...The Carter III has received lawsuits, prior to us there was another sample issue, there was another producer that jumped up and it's kinda not fair to Wayne at the same time. And I'm not saying trying to take his side because homie's doing his thing. I'm sure Wayne and them got their money up front but I ain't got mine. It's close to four million records, it's one of the biggest selling albums in a long time. I just wanna get a little bit." (K104)
Skillz previously broke the news on not being paid by Wayne's label for their work.
"We haven't gotten any compensation," he said in an interview. "We really didn't want to speak on anything like that, just because of our relationship with T-Pain and Wayne. We're more thankful for the opportunity to be on Tha Carter III, but business is business at the end of the day." (All Hip Hop)
Former Cash Money Records associate Tristan "T Mix" Jones sued the label for $2 million in damages over an alleged breach of contract earlier this year.
In a federal lawsuit, Jones claims he signed an exclusive production contract with Cash Money Records in November 2005. In exchange for Jones' exclusive production services, Jones says Cash Money promised to pay production royalties on the suggested retail list price. Jones says Cash Money owes him at least $2.25 million, but has paid him only about $187,000. Jones seeks damages for breach of contract in Federal Court. (Courthouse News Service)

Even after a record-setting day, Miami quarterback Stephen Morris wasted no time trying to get his team locked in on the next game.
With good reason. It's Miami-Notre Dame week. The Hurricanes (4-1) and the ninth-ranked Fighting Irish (4-0) play in Chicago on Saturday night.
Morris set a school- and Atlantic Coast Conference-record with 566 yards passing in Miami's victory over North Carolina State on Saturday, and threw a 62-yard touchdown pass to win it with 19 seconds left.
Within minutes of the final whistle, he had his team huddled together in the locker room, telling them about the importance of any game that rekindles the storied rivalry between the Irish and the Hurricanes.
Morris says he's "been waiting for this game since freshman year."

From i3Detroit
Equipment Available at i3 Detroit
This page provides an index of the pages that describe the various pieces of equipment at i3 Detroit's space.
Terry W - I would like to replace this page with the comprehensive list of equipment which is now on the Map of Zones page. For the following reasons:
- This page doesn't provide a single list of all major equipment, which I believe is useful.
- This page is not up to date. Nor is it being sync'd to the Zone pages, which I believe should be the master.
- This page does not describe ownership or access or trainers which I believe are important to any new user.
Please comment here if you think it would be a good or bad idea and make other suggestions. If I don't get any comments after a couple of weeks I will make the change.

Sweeping the series against a first place team would be a monumental statement, junior pitcher Andrew Blum said. Though the baseball team did not win all three games of their weekend series against the Saint Louis University Billikens, the Spiders showed that they could be successful against a very successful team.
Coming into the weekend, Saint Louis boasted an in-conference record of 11-1, and by winning two of three games, the Spiders became the first Atlantic-10 team to win a series against them this year, despite scoring in only two innings in three days.
On Friday, the Spiders won 8-7, though the Billikens took the lead early. They scored six runs off starting pitcher sophomore Zak Sterling, who continued his recent trend of lasting only a few innings into a start. He stayed in the game for two and one-third innings, and gave up three walks and seven hits, two of which were home runs.
Freshman Peter Bayer pitched in relief of Sterling, and was fantastic, coach Mark McQueen said. He pitched four and two-thirds innings, and gave up one run with six strikeouts, striking out three batters in a row in the top of the fifth.
After a few rough outings lately, Bayer said it had felt good to bounce back.
"When I have innings when everything is working, I feel like I can dominate," Bayer said. "And that's exactly what I did."
The Spiders' offense was quiet except for during the fourth inning, when the team scored all eight runs. Seniors Jake Mayers and Adam Forrer and freshman Tyler Beckwith all singled to load the bases, and then patience paid off to keep the momentum going, as juniors JB Gadd and Mike Small both walked with two outs to bring home two runs.
Freshman Tanner Stanley continued his dominance on offense by hitting a triple and scoring on a throwing error to clear the bases and add three runs to the total. Forrer tripled in his second at-bat of the inning to tack on another run, before the inning ended on a Bret Williams strikeout.
Bayer said his teammates wouldn't normally expect to win a game in which they fell behind 0-6 so early, but McQueen was pleased with the way the team handled those expectations.
"I told them I was proud of them today because no one was freaking out in the dugout," McQueen said. "They showed real maturity. Even though we only scored in one inning, I'm proud of the way they handled that one inning."
Stanley was the top overall offense-producer of the day, going 3-for-5 at the plate. He thought taking the first game from a team that wasn't accustomed to losing very often would make the second game of the series more intense, he said.
"Tomorrow [Saint Louis is] going to come up ready to fight," Stanley said. "They put up six runs. We put up eight. That's kind of a slap in the face."
The Billikens did come out eager to win on Saturday, scoring right away on a double from Mike Vigliarolo, the Billikens' first baseman who went 8-for-12 on the weekend with three home runs. But the Spiders' pitching, led by starter Blum, quelled the Saint Louis offense for the remainder of the game, and Richmond won 3-1.
Blum was tremendous, McQueen said. He pitched seven and one-third innings, gave up one run on nine hits, walked one and struck out five.
Though the offense didn't have an explosive inning like on Friday, it did enough to secure the win, while Blum kept the score close for the Spiders.
Forrer led the offense on Saturday, going 2-for-3 with a home run, an intentional walk and two runs batted in. Beckwith also went 2-for-4 with two doubles.
Junior pitcher Andrew Brockett earned his second save in as many days on Saturday. Though he had pitched the final two innings of Friday's game, getting all six outs without surrendering a hit, he threw only about 18 pitches in that game, which made McQueen comfortable calling on him for a second day in a row, he said.
"[Being a closer] is his role, and he's the best we have," McQueen said. "I would be mistaken if I didn't go to him in that situation against a first place team."
On Sunday, the Spiders lost the final contest of the series 0-2 in a remarkably quick one hour and 58 minute pitchers' duel. More than four batters never came to bat in a half inning.
Mayers pitched eight innings, and gave up seven hits and two runs with seven strikeouts. But the Billikens' pitcher Clay Smith was just that much better, throwing the complete game and surrendering only two hits with one walk and eight strikeouts.
Mayers said Smith was one of the toughest pitchers the Spiders had faced all year.
"Both pitchers were unbelievable," McQueen said. "Nine out of 10 times, if Jake throws like that we're going to win."
After winning the series, the Spiders moved into fourth place in the A-10 standings, in a tie with Saint Joseph's University. They will play their next in-conference series against Temple University at 3 p.m. on Friday at Pitt Field.

Now you'll get to meet the man behind it.
LINDALE (TYLER MORNING TELEGRAPH) - The Lindale Economic Development Corp. sold a 17-acre site in the city's
industrial park to a company that plans to build a Fed Ex Ground
distribution center, officials announced this morning.Tyler FXG,
LLC, a subsidiary of Jones Development, of Kansas City, Mo., bought the
property and will construct a 163,000-square-foot distribution center.
Construction is set to begin immediately and take a little more than a
year to complete, representatives said."We are particularly
pleased with the announcement that our first occupant in our new Lindale
Industrial Park is such a nationally recognized company as FedEx,"
Lindale Economic Development Corp. Board Chairman Barham Fulmer said.
"This announcement is reflective of a great deal of cooperation and hard
work by (LEDC President) John Clary, the LEDC board and the city
council and staff. It demonstrates how much we can accomplish as a
team…"Lindale Economic Development Corp. purchased 120 acres of
land at the southwest corner of Harvey Road (Country Road 433), along
Interstate 20, in 2007 to develop into the Lindale Industrial Park to
attract industrial and manufacturing companies. Basic
infrastructure was complete in March 2012. Just two months later, the
Lindale Economic Development Corp. signed a purchase and sale agreement
with a developer to construct the distribution center. Last week, the
corporation closed on the land sale to Tyler FXG, LLC.

After Castle Crashers, we were eagerly anticipating their next title. There was all this talk about the new game…what was it going to be about and more importantly, when was it going to come out? Well, after years of development, Battleblock Theater has arrived. But the big question is, was it worth the wait?? In my opinion…yes, yes it was!
As a fan of platforming games, Battleblock Theater was all that I could hope for and more. The music, the story, the narration!! It's all just so good!!
The story and prologue are phenomenally done by narrator William Stamper and he's just so darn excited! The story begins as a casual boat ride and after a storm, you end up on a seemingly abandoned island…until you find out the inhabitants are cats. And if you've read some of my previous articles, you know how I love cats. These are not just your normal everyday "throw a ball of yarn, rub my belly" cats. These cats are your jailers and it's your job to keep them entertained.
The object of the game is to make it through the levels alive. You need to collect gems to enable the opening of the exit portal. You need to get through various enemies, acid-like pools of liquid, and various blocks that can hinder your progress. You only need to collect three gems to open the exit, but the more gems you collect, the higher your "grade" and this can also gain you achievements. The more gems you collect, the more prisoners you can unlock. There is also a ball of yarn to be found in each level. The yarn is "contraband" that can be traded to the guards for additional weapons to aid you through your journey.
It is a brilliant piece of co-operative platforming where you can aid your partner by throwing them to a safer area, pulling one another up on ledges, riding boats, punching enemies, dragging blocks, and timing your jumps accordingly among other things. You can play through the campaign/story-mode or play in some of the arena modes. If you do any of the arena modes, be sure to play Horse, a Capture The Flag type of mini-game where you ride tofu horses!! The Arena modes are playable with up to four people, thus multiplying the fun. There is also a level editor if you want to go about creating your own hair tearing levels.
There is just so much to this game. Campaign/story-mode, co-op, online, offline, secret levels, achievements, unlockables…the list goes on. I don't believe that anyone could get bored with this game…and if by some crazy chance you find yourself bored, pop into the level editor and design your own. The level editor also allows you access to levels created by others so it can never get old.
This is definitely a game worth picking up and at 1200 MS points, it's worth every penny. I give this game a 9.5 our of 10!
Thank you The Behemoth for another wonderful creation.

text: I've been looking at the different ways the Titans can make the playoffs, and everything seems to be lining up. First Houston has nothing to play for, even if they win they will be in the same spot, so hopefully they will rest their starters. Next the Bengals are play the Raven's, and if they win get a first round buy so one would think they will be going for it. One would think that either the Raiders or Broncos will loss, but the game that has me worried is the Jets Dolphins game, I don't trust the Jets and never thought I would be cheering for them. Lets just hope the stars are aligned and hopefully well be playing in the post season! What does everyone think the chances are?? Go Titans!!

Hundreds of thousands of democrats have migrated West to Denver, Colorado this week for the Democratic National Convention. And relatively close by, 12 fighters from Greg Jackson's MMA have flocked from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Vail, Colorado, in search of high altitude training to give them an additional edge for upcoming fights.
One of those fighters is none other than 8-0 WEC lightweight sensation Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone, who is quickly converging on lightweight title contender status following two victories in his first two fights with the promotion.
One of the wins was ruled a no contest by the Nevada State Athletic Commission after Cerrone tested positive for a banned diuretic. Following the positive test, NSAC suspended the 25-year old. However, he returned with a vengance this past June, submitting Danny Castillo with an armbar at 1:30 of round 1 during WEC 34.
Now Cerrone is just weeks out from the biggest fight of his career; a showdown at WEC 36 on Sept. 10 in Hollywood, Fla. with former WEC lightweight champion "Razor" Rob McCullough. Despite being in the midst of final preparations for the fight, Cerrone still made time for an exclusive interview with FiveOuncesOfPain.com in which he revealed that the winner of the fight between he and McCullough will be granted a title shot against current champion Jamie Varner in December.
During the one-on-one conversation, Cerrone also addressed his suspension for the banned diuretic; why he decided to get involved with MMA after a strong kickboxing career; what his experience was like being featured on the VERSUS reality TapouT show; whether he was ever considered for "The Ultimate Fighter," and more.
Sam Caplan: As we do this interview I am talking to you while you're in Colorado. Can you talk about which camp you're training with for this fight and who you are training with?
Donald Cerrone: Yeah, I am up here in Vail, Colorado. I brought about 12 guys from (Greg) Jackson's up here at Inyodo Martial Arts up in Vail. I brought about 12 guys and then have guys up here like Duane Ludwig; my Brazilian instructor has come up from Brazil; and we've got a couple of guys from England. So we kind of transplated our camp up here in Vale for the last couple of weeks at 10,000 feet.
Sam Caplan: Did you go out to Vale just for the altitude or did you go because maybe there aren't a lot of guys getting ready for fights right now at Greg Jackson's?
Donald Cerrone: Oh yeah, it has to do with the altitude. And the last couple of weeks (before a fight) are always hard and I think just to improve my focus I come up here. It's just kind of peaceful during the last week of cutting and it just kind of gets my mind right. That's one of the main reasons why I come up here.
Sam Caplan: You mentioned weight cutting and I wanted to ask you about the suspension you received following WEC 30 when you tested positive for a diuretic. Can you discuss your motivations behind using it?
Donald Cerrone: I didn't take it to cut the weight, which was the problem. I took it because I had a really bad staph infection and I took it to clean out my system to get rid of the medications I had been on. The medications I was using to treat the condition made me feel worse than the staph infection did. The weight cutting is never a problem for me so a lot of people are misled by thinking that.
Sam Caplan: Can you talk a little more about staph, which has become pretty common in a lot of gyms. It's almost an epidemic it seems. I assume you picked it up from training with someone?
Donald Cerrone: Yeah, I either picked it up here in Colorado or down at Greg's. I had it really bad. I had it in my armpit and in the pit in the back of my legs, my arm, and down my leg. It was bad, man. It was in my bloodstream and I was in the hospital a couple of days right before the fight. The medication they gave me made me feel like crap so I had the diuretic to help me get cleaned out. The weight was no problem and I popped a 25mg pill, which was next to nothing but it is what it is. The suspension was good for me. It helped me work on a lot of things I needed to work on.
Sam Caplan: I train to and most of the people I train with have good hygiene. But every now and then I will train with a someone who obviously hasn't showered and really smells. How do you handle a situation like that?
Donald Cerrone: I really don't run into that problem too much. Usually the guys that I roll with are pretty clean. They don't really stink or are dirty like that.
Sam Caplan: The WEC is building up their 155 lbs. division and they recently added former IFL fighter Bart Palaszewski to the roster. I'm not sure if you're familiar with him, but I wanted to know if I could get your thoughts on him?
Donald Cerrone: I'm not really familiar with that guy. I just never really paid attention to the IFL much so I don't really know much about that guy. I really don't know about most opponents because I don't follow the sport too much. I just worry about my own thing, if that makes any sense?
Sam Caplan: If you're not a fan, what was the driving force for you getting involved in MMA as a competitor?
Donald Cerrone: Aw man, to be honest with you, the money. I was doing kickboxing and I kept winning fights and eventually Sven Bean (promoter for Ring of Fire) offered me a great deal of money to take a fight and so that's what I did.
Sam Caplan: When you were first approached about it though, what was your outlook on MMA?
Donald Cerrone: I had never really gotten into it all but I remember coming from a kickboxing background and I was like "I doubt I'll submit anybody. I'll just keep knocking people out." And then I got into the whole jiu-jitsu thing and now I've been pulling off submissions and I've kind of reversed roles (laughs).
Sam Caplan: You mentioned that you don't keep up with opponents. Is MMA strictly business for you? I mean, if you're at home and a fight is on TV do you just flip through the channels or is it something you might stop and watch?
Donald Cerrone: It's kind of strictly business. I'll watch if there's an opponent of mine I might have to fight that I know is going to be on there, or a friend of mine. I have a lot of friends now in MMA so I pay a lot of attention to what they're doing. But I try not to make it my whole life because then it just drags me down. You know, that's all I eat, sleep, and drink. I've got to keep my mind clear on other things.
Sam Caplan: There's been a lot of speculation about changes to the WEC and some merging of weight classes. I've heard some reports that suggest that the WEC lightweight division won't be effected and I've heard other reports that it could be merged with the UFC's 155 lbs. division? If the lightweight divisions of the WEC and UFC were merged, would you have a problem with that?
Donald Cerrone: Aw man, I'd be excited for that bro. Whoever they want me to fight, whenever. I'm game for whatever. That would't effect me at all. If it stays, it stays. If it goes, it goes.
Sam Caplan: Dan Lauzon was featured on VERSUS' TapouT reality TV show and his brother, Joe Lauzon, was none too pleased how they edited the show. You were also featured on TapouT. How would you describe your experience with the show?
Donald Cerrone: I love those guys. They did a lot for me and they still do a lot for me. They've done two shows with me, including a "Where are they now" program. It was a lot of fun and I've got nothing but love for them. I thought they captured who I was well. I didn't see the episode with Lauzon so I can't be critical about it.
Sam Caplan: Speaking of reality television, I wanted to ask you about "The Ultimate Fighter." It seems like prior to making it to the big time with the WEC you had the perfect profile for TUF. Were you ever approached about the show or did you ever try out?
Donald Cerrone: Yeah, I was approached a couple of times about the show. And man, I just don't know what happened (laughs). I'm not too sure but one time I was going to go for it and another time I wasn't. I train with a lot of guys like Rashad (Evans) and Keith (Jardine) who have done the show and there's pros and cons; they lock you down in that contract and I don't know if I'm prepared to get locked in a contract like that, you know? They kind of own you, if that makes any sense?
Sam Caplan: Yes, it does. It's like you're locked in at a mid-level rate for 9-12 fights.
Donald Cerrone: Exactly.
Sam Caplan: So what's your contract situation with the WEC right now?
Donald Cerrone: Right now I believe I have four fights left.
Sam Caplan: Is it non-exclusive? Because sometimes I'll see guys fight in the WEC and then if they don't get a fight in three or four months they will fight in a smaller promotion before coming back. Is that an option you have?
Donald Cerrone: No. I'm exclusive with the WEC.
Sam Caplan: I wanted to ask you about your next fight on Sept. 10 at WEC 36 against "Razor" Rob McCullough. Have they told you whether you'll receive a lightweight title shot at Jamie Varner if you win that fight?
Donald Cerrone: Yeah, they have. It's for the number one spot to go after Varner in Decemer. But as far as Rob, I'm really excited. He's a world class striker. Everyone kind of forgot that I am a kickboxer so I'm going to go out and show what I can do. In the end I will look for a submission but I'm ready to go out and stand and bang, man.
Sam Caplan: Have you seen some of McCullough's recent performances?
Donald Cerrone: Yeah, I have. I've watched his last several fights.
Sam Caplan: Since losing the title to Varner he hasn't looked the same. He came back and fought Ken Alexander and seemed real tentative. What did you think of his performance in that fight?
Donald Cerrone: It kind of felt like he was a little gun-shy but some people just have an off day so I can't really judge my training on that. I've been judging my training on his past fights with his kickboxing and how he used to fight. I'm ready for him to come out strong and for him to stay strong, which is what I am looking forward to.
Sam Caplan: What do you think of Varner as a champion? When you see him fight, do you see a lot of weaknesses?
Donald Cerrone: I wouldn't say weaknesses. Everyone has got weaknesses. But I see some holes in his game that could be worked on and I'm excited to see Jamie Varner and that's an option I am looking forward to as well in the near future.
Sam Caplan: If you beat McCullough and get the title shot, have they told you much about when and where it will take place? I know you mentioned December as a possibility.
Donald Cerrone: There are talks that they could be coming to Denver, Colorado so that would be totally awesome if we could figure something like that out. But officially, I don't know where it's going to be right now.
Sam Caplan: Did they tell you when they might come to Denver?
Donald Cerrone: For the December card, I think. But it's just talk. There was talk that maybe they would come here for this one but they couldn't get it arranged in time.
I agree that Rob was real tentative in his last fight and he even admitted it. He is back training with Colin Oyama and has got that fire back. He's training with big guys that can really strike like Shane DelRosario, the WBC Muay Thai HW Champ and also Josh Thompson. I think his striking will be back to his world class style. Of course his ground game is always a question but Giva Santana "The Arm Collector" has really been working with him. I expect a new Rob to come out this time.

It's VAIL….not VALE.

Thanks Trevor.
Cowboy is ridiculously popular amongst Colorado mma fans. I have seen him fight several times for Ring of Fire and the crowd is just obnoxiously enthusiastic.
The first few times I saw him fight, it was against guys that were way overmatched physically and i wasn't much of a fan. then i saw him fight a kickboxer from Houston that was big and aggressive. I thought Cerrone was done for, but he came back and won big. Since then, I have been much more of a fan. Plus he trains with some friends so…
This would be an amazing night if they brought WEC to Denver in the near future.
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
Although I am looking forward to the two Title bouts for this event. I am most interested to see who will win between Razor Rob and The Cowboy. My money is on Cerrone to win via submission or possibly even KTFO. This fight will bring the fireworks fo' show. Cheers!!!
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
The cowboy is a real talented dude. He can take it to the ground on knock you out. He's long and rangy. McCullough just isn't as well rounded as Cerrone. It could be fight of the night if they keep it on the feet. Cerrone by decision
Agree or Disagree: 0 0
The biggest lost of razor it's his muay thai trainer Jean Carrillo…

5 Reasons Why You Should Buy...: "Pain Is Love 2": "Before Drake, Lil Wayne Or Kanye West Dominated The Radio, It Was Ja Rule"
Thursday, Mar 1, 2012 12:56AM
[With Ja Rule's long-awaited Pain Is Love 2 album finally in stores, producer Seven gives you his top five reasons to dig in your pockets and support the rapper's newest LP.]
1. The Main Attraction
Pain is Love, which sold 10 million world wide, was produced by 7 Aurelius & Irv Gotti. After that album, 7 departed from the Inc and only collaborated for a brief stint with Ashanti on 'Only U'. Although 7 and Ja had huge success working with each other the two never crossed paths again until early 2011. Ten years later you are witnessing the final chapter of what started between two creative forces in 2001 that changed the sound of radio world wide. Pain Is Love 2 marks the reunion of Ja Rule and 7 Aurelius to stellar results.
2. This Is All For You
PIL2 was recorded in the final months leading up to the start of a two-year prison sentence for Ja Rule. Name another artist that would spend his last hours of freedom recording a new hit record and his best work for his fans? This is the Ja Rule the world remembers. Get on the PIL!
3. The Sound Of Music
You cannot deny the fact that Ja Rule not only changed the sound of radio but his songs had a lasting effect on both black culture and pop culture. The production is phenomenal and larger than life.
4. Enjoy The Ride
The song writing, hooks, and overall experience is incredible. The first Pain Is Love introduced the world to Ashanti. PIL2 will introduce new artists Leah Siegal, Anita Louise, Somong and Jon Doe.
5. Men Lie, Women Lie, Numbers Don't
Although the true success of this album will not be based off sales alone, it is important to note that every Ja Rule album ever released has sold at least a million copies. This is his first record in seven years. Those who have heard it are calling PIL2 his best album to date. Before Drake, Lil Wayne or Kanye dominated the radio it was Ja Rule. For 4 years, you could not turn on the radio without hearing Ja Rule or one of his many hit collaborations including Ashanti, Mary J Blige, Christina Milian, Mariah Carey & J. Lo. 30 million albums sold!
You Decide. Will you purchase Pain Is Love 2?
To purchase Pain Is Love 2, just click here.
SOHH/Pain Is Love 2 Contest:
Want a copy of the album for yourself? Here's what you gotta do:
1- Follow @sohh & @sohhdotcom on Twitter.
Beginning around 3 PM EST, check out SOHH's Twitter accounts for questions based on Seven's five reasons you should check out the new album. Make sure when you answer the question, you include the hashtag #SOHHPIL2 in your response. G'luck!

Volunteers are active ambassadors of acceptance and solidarity in Athens
One of the largest and most inspiring volunteering event of 2011 took place in the framework of Special Olympics World Summer Games ATHENS 2011 from June 20 to July 4 hosting 7,500 athletes with intellectual disabilities and 25,000 volunteers from all over the world. Special Olympics is based upon the idea of volunteerism as volunteers have been the cornerstone to develop the movement in 180 countries and regions worldwide. Special Olympics serve as an effective catalyst for a social change towards understanding and acceptance of people with intellectual disability.
From June 10 until July 10, 100 young European citizens, aged 18-30 years old offered volunteer service to Special Olympics World Summer Games ATHENS 2011. Their participation was supported by the European Commission within the framework of Action 2 of Youth in Action Programme (EVS, European Voluntary Service).
The young volunteers came mainly from member organizations of the "Alliance of European Voluntary Service Organisations" from Austria, Belgium, Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania Spain, Turkey and United Kingdom. They contributed to the success of the event and supported the Special Olympics athletes in the sport venues as well as in the non-sport sites. On every occasion they promoted the goals of IYV+10 and the European Year of Volunteering 2011. Above all, volunteers were active ambassadors of hope, acceptance, solidarity and of the transforming effect volunteerism can have in society.

Would you like to add your own explaination to this word 'Postulation'?
Wikipedia Meaning and Definition on 'Postulation'
In traditional logic, an axiom or postulate is a proposition that is not proved or demonstrated but considered to be either self-evident, or subject to necessary decision. Therefore, its truth is taken for granted, and serves as a starting point for deducing and inferring other (theory dependent) truths.
In mathematics, the term axiom is used in two related but distinguishable senses: "logical axioms" and "non-logical axioms". In both senses, an axiom is any mathematical statement that serves as a starting point from which other statements are logically derived. Unlike theorems, axioms (unless redundant) cannot be derived by principles of deduction, nor are they demonstrable by mathematical proofs, simply because they are starting points; there is nothing else from which they logically follow (otherwise they would be classified as theorems).[See more about Postulation at Dictionary 3.0 Encyclopedia]

So this should be a great game. Everybody in the ACC is enamored with their own and is so geared up to see Psycho-T go off on the Sooners. I personally think its going to come down to the play of the secondary guys (not Lawson and Hanbrough)that decide this game.
Lets see what that frog eyed redneck can do against the national player of the year. UNC may win the game, but for all the hillbillies that say Griffin would get owned in the ACC, you'll find out what he is all about soon enough.

City of Irving Gathering Public Input for Heritage Crossing
Company president Scott Polikov showed examples of how his company has transformed the downtown areas of McKinney, Duncanville and Roanoke in his presentation. He also outlined potential plans for the future of Heritage Crossing, an almost 48-acre area bound by West Pioneer Drive, Britain Road, Shady Grove Road and MacArthur Boulevard.
"Heritage Crossing offers as much potential for a vibrant urban neighborhood as any location you've seen in the metroplex," Polikov said. "We hope to attract quality developers both inside and outside the city who are embraced by the neighborhoods."
A come-and-go workshop for Heritage Crossing residents and stakeholders will be held from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Feb. 5 at City Hall, 825 W. Irving Blvd. There will be experts available to provide more information and answer questions. Plans are scheduled to be presented to the public on Feb. 28 from 6:30 to 9 p.m.
Gateway Planning Group expects to complete their work in the next 60 days. For more information, call (972) 721-2251 or visit the Heritage Crossing Redevelopment Project page.

The Map That Changed the World
From August 2, 2012 DrexelNow:
DrexelNow pulled Dr. Ken Lacovara, paleontologist and associate professor of biology in the College of Arts and Sciences, from his work in a marl pit in Gloucester County, NJ, to find out what he's currently reading. He just finished The Map That Changed the World by Simon Winchester.
Dr. Lacovara states: It's a biography of a man named William Smith. Through his work as a surveyor, everywhere he went he collected fossils and took meticulous notes. At that time (early 1800s), the study of geology was in its infancy; it was a dilettante science... read more

Easter Fun: Flowers & Bunny Ears
These festive flowers and bunny ears are not only easy, they are perfect to create with kids.
Use them as for spring and Easter displays by sticking them into flower pots, or wrap them in cellophane bags and present these as favors to guests for your next soirée.
Here are the ingredients and tools you will need:
- Pretzel Crisps®
- Any color candy melts (or white and pink for the bunny ears)
- Popsicle or crafting sticks
- Large gumdrops (specifically for the flowers)
- Aluminum foil
- Optional: plastic bags or piping bags
- Nonpareils or sprinkles
Begin by selecting a variety of candy melt colors. You can find these in arts and craft, as well as baking supply stores.
For the bunny ears, you will want white and pink candy melts.
Melt them in a heat-safe bowl in the microwave for 15 seconds. Stir, and then continue to melt in 15-second spurts and re-stir in between until smooth and creamy.
Dip 4 crisps into white candy melts for one set of bunny ears.
Dip 3 crisps in any color for each flower.
You need a large gumdrop for the center of the flower.
Turn dipped Pretzel Crisps® over and line them into a circle. Dollop more chocolate/candy melts onto edges to join them together. Once dry, stick one end of a popsicle stick into chocolate and place on back.
Turn over and "glue", with chocolate or candy melts, a large gum drop onto the center of the flower.
As for the bunny ears, "glue" two crisps together.
Place pink candy melts into a candy piping bag (found in baking or arts and crafts stores) and melt in microwave. You can also spoon melted candy melts into a Ziploc bag and cut the corner.
Pipe pink into the center of each ear. This is optional, you can also use a spoon to dollop the melts on and use the bottom of the spoon to spread it into the appropriate shape.
Also optional: Pipe white around the edge and immediately coat with sprinkles or nonpareils.
Dip popsicle sticks into chocolate and place one on the back of each ear.
Place flowers into cellophane bags and tie with a ribbon.
You can also stick them into a flower pot or can for decoration.
The bunny ears are especially fun peeking out from potted grass.

Although it's difficult to know exactly how you feel about UCLA athletic programs, it seems clear at this point that they're not high on your list of priorities. I'm not sure why that is. Maybe you have taken the University of Virginia (a very different school) as a model. Or maybe you're simply not interested in college sports.
Here's my best guess, though. I think you underestimated how important sports were in the life of UCLA students and alumni. And now that you're here, you've decided that supporting Dan Guerrero is your only option. That's why I'm writing: to remind you that you have alternatives.
There are three alternatives that come to mind for me (and I'm far from an expert). The first is to use your position as chancellor to unofficially contact the presidents and chancellors of other universities to get recommendations for young - and talented - athletic directors. The second is to indicate, even indirectly, that you intend to make changes in the athletic department; if you do, there will be an avalanche of suggested candidates, all of whom you can evaluate later. The third option is to use the inventiveness and creativity that's evident in your biography on the UCLA website.
I am not, of course, making these suggestions in a vacuum. From the accounts I've read, contributions from UCLA alumni are declining (and I respectfully suggest there is a link between the dismal performance of the football/basketball teams, as well as the athletic department, and the decline in contributions.) In addition, the mismanagement of UCLA athletics is drawing increasing attention. Today, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, a legend among those who follow UCLA sports, wrote about the dispiriting state of UCLA basketball.
If you look at the picture of John Wooden leaning on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar amid the cheers at Pauley Pavilion, you will see a picture of one generation passing the traits of courage and decency onto the next generation. THAT IS WHAT WE'RE ABOUT. That is what sports mean at UCLA - pride, discipline and intensity - the flesh and bones that carry us forward in law, business, teaching and medicine when we leave this school.
The choice is yours - UCLA students, fans and alumni hope you choose wisely.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - With the winner of the NCAA men's basketball tournament still undecided, you can be fairly certain there will be more upsets on Saturday.
In fact, when it comes to championships, the Southern California Wolfpack is about as close as you can get to a sure thing. The team consists of amazing athletes, who are in a league of their own.
The Wolfpack is training to go to war. They are the only military team in the nation right now. Formed two years ago, at Naval Medical Center San Diego and supported by the Warrior Foundation, the Wolfpack is made up of Army, Navy and Marine Vets, like Hector Varela and Jorge Salazar, who bring core military values to wheelchair basketball. And they are not afraid of hand-to-hand combat.
"Technically, you're not supposed to make contact. Of course, we have so much fun out there, we forget," said team captain, Josue Barron.
The Wolfpack has amassed some amazing stats. Last season, they went 26-4 and this year they're at 24-2. They are number one in the nation for division three.
The team made up of single, double and even triple amputees is captained by Josue Barron.
"In 2010, I stepped on an IED in Afghanistan and lost my left leg and my left eye," Barron said.
But what he's never lost is his competitive edge, saying:
"Our accomplishment comes from some of the guys being wounded in combat. And we just play aggressively. I think most of us got a second chance and we're pushing our second chance to the limit."
It's synchronicity that keys success for the Wolfpack.
On April 2, the Wolfpack will travel to Louisville, Kentucky to compete for the national title. Barron is confident:
"We'll bring it back, definitely."

According to General Petraeus' alleged mistress Paula Broadwell, the Benghazi consulate was actually a secret CIA prison.
Breitbart reported yesterday that in a speech she recently gave, she stated that the prison held multiple terror suspects and was guarded by the CIA's top officers in the area.
The attack on the consulate was planned by the terror groups in the region in order to get their men out of this jail.

If this is true… then the White House, Hilary Clinton, etc… ALL KNEW that these were staged attacks and lied to the American people about what happened in Benghazi for over a week.
It goes without saying that there are a lot of these types of prisons around the world with every country's secret police…
But here, it would have made sense for the Administration to be honest with the American people, especially before the election and before ruining the life of the guy who made that terrible satirical movie about Islam and Muhammad.
Either way, it is pretty evident that this situation was spun to benefit President Obama and that mainstream news organizations aren't fully reporting on this topic as they should be.
