Naija Star, Monah Ogah Taking Africa By Storm
Nigeria has over the years produced some of Africa's biggest and most celebrated female musicians. From the likes of Chidinma , Tiwa Savage, Waje and Seyi Shay. This time round, that same West African musical pot has churned out yet another of its best, Monicah Oga.
Monica was born on the 7th of August, 1990 in Benue State, the last born from a family of six children, & hails from the same state from the Northern part of Nigeria. She had her early elementary & secondary school education at Bammco Nursery & Primary and Methodist Girls High School in Benue state.
She started nurturing her singing talent at the church at Sunday school practices.
Her passion for music moved her to enroll in the audition of Nigeria's biggest talent hunt reality television show, MTN Project fame. Where she qualified and proceeded into the house and came out the eventual winner of The MTN Project Fame season 4, 2011.
Talent wise she is unquestionably without doubt, exceptional. She has been consistent and has gone ahead to prove critics wrong, by following up after her feat at the talent show to release her debut single titled "Body Hug" which was produced by ace producer Wiz Boy. Her debut single went on several top music blog sites and earned heavy rotation on several radio stations Nation wide in Nigeria. Where she attained the top 5 songs spot for months and garnered several download hits.
Months after the release of her debut single she did the video which was shot by Ace music video guru and director, Clarence Peters of Capital Dreams Pictures. The video went on heavy rotations on several terrestrial television & cable stations in Nigeria & around Africa.
After some months on Hiatus taking time out with family and personal dealings, she is back with 2 songs namely "End of Story" & "Suddenly" which features fellow MTN Project Fame alumni, Chidinma. A song that trended on twitter and once again turning the internet community and radio into a frenzy. Presently, she is working her two singles busy with her radio tour & plans on new videos.
She has performed at several MTN events one of such being the just concluded project fame concert tour in Calabar & Lagos, respectively.
She has worked with the likes of ace producers Tha suspect, Del B., wiz boy & Jay sleek and future names which she is keeping under wraps on her debut album project, which is yet untitled.
In a nut shell, Monica Ogah is definitely one of the contending vocalists to come out of Nigeria & Africa as a whole. Sample her videos and records below

Facebook plans new mobile advertisingPUBLISHED: 08 Jul 2012 15:32:00 | UPDATED: 09 Jul 2012 07:10:07PUBLISHED: 08 Jul 2012 PRINT EDITION: 09 Jul 2012

Social networking giant Facebook plans to engage in a new type of mobile advertising based on the apps used by consumers, The Wall Street Journal has reported.
The social network, which has 900 million users, would use its Facebook Connect feature – which lets millions log into applications using their Facebook ID and password – to track consumers' apps, and tailor ads accordingly, it said.
Facebook may also attempt to track how people use the apps, but a final decision has not been made, the newspaper said, quoting unnamed sources familiar with the company's plans.
The plan is likely to stoke privacy fears, as the initiative would go further than present mobile-ad networks, which track ads viewed by consumers on their mobile phone's web browser, the report said.
One of the biggest challenges Facebook must confront is its difficulties in generating revenues from smartphones, with more and more users accessing the social networks from mobile devices.
That factor led analysts to downgrade their forecasts for the group before its stock market debut in May, which ended up being less than a success.
At that time, Facebook shares were offered at $US38. Shares closed Friday at $US31.73.

Hi Anna. I have a good work ethic, so showing up on time, ready to put in some work, isn't a problem for me. Hell, I'll even show my pearly whites and blink my blue eyes at the parents while working gate duty.
However, based on your comment, are you suggesting the low pay is based on the quality of teachers available? I would think it's fair to say at least 75% of those on this forum are quality teachers, based on them taking enough interest in their career to converse with others in their profession about ways to improve (this forum just isn't a BSing session, but rather has some excellent advice for those in the TEFL industry). So then, if you are indeed suggesting the low pay is a reflection of the low quality of teacher working in the TEFL profession in Thailand, then I wonder what the percentage of TEFL teachers are (active) members of this forum.
You've answered some of your own questions really, Hollywood.
I can't extrapolate my own limited experience to encompass the whole of Thailand, its schools, their hiring practices and the wages they are prepared to pay. But I have a pretty fair idea of how it works in my part of the country.
Walking into a high-ish paying job is perhaps difficult because any new teacher is an unknown quantity. Perhaps after a year the money will go up. And the year after that. It's a 2-way street after all, and schools have as many 'horror' stories about falangs as we do about schools.
Somebody said, or inferred, above that anything is possible - of course it is. Of course. You seem to have your head screwed on. You'll work it out.
Now. Tea.

"Take this, brother; may it serve you well."
Thanks Anna. I understand your point more clearly now. Starting salaries at THB 30k are well known because they're advertised, however we don't know what a teacher in his/her second or third year teaching at a school is making. Thus, it's quite possible (probable?) quality teachers are making a decent wage after proving their worth. Don't tell me if I'm wrong about that...give me something to cling to.
Enjoy your tea.
However, I would like to make a few points based on some of the previous posts. I personally would never expect to come out to Thailand and set myself up for the rest of my life teaching. The rate of pay and current state of the Thai education system does not have the infrastructure to enable Thai teachers, never mind Western teachers, to be able to do this. Thats why I have chosen to wait until I am financially 'sound' before even considering relocation to what is still an underdeveloped country. I love Thailand but realise to fully enjoy and to have a reasonable lifestyle one has to see it for what it really is. I do appreciate that what is comfortable for one person is not always the case for others.
Its not only Thailand where the economy is 'driving' down wages. Like many in the UK my wage has fallen while inflation and trebled over the last few years. I know this is heartbreaking for those wanting to live the 'dream' in Thailand but its reality. Another point to consider is that 30,000 Baht a month is three times more than most Thai teachers earn. Whether this is right or wrong how would we feel if we were teaching in our own country and a foreign teacher was working the same hours and getting paid three times more than we were.
Hope I have not offended anyone but just wanted to raise these few points.

Some good points there, Andy.
I'll say no more.
I had to fly home for for a bereavement two years ago. Nothing was too much trouble for the school. They can be demanding, but they are fair.

Andy...you actually quoted me there rather than Thaitanium. You make good points. I do realize it can be a long shot, but I'll give it my best. Who knows, maybe I can make it work, maybe I can't, but at least I won't go broke trying. Best of luck to you with setting up your own program!
Anna...Earl Grey? Sounds as though you work for a great school. If it's in Issan, clue me in! 555 Seriously though, I was unaware of the bonuses, free flights home every year, and other perks. It seems I read so much about the actual amount of the paycheck, but see very little mentioned about the extras. Wonder why that is. It reminds me of the pay when I was in the military. While the actual pay was on the low side, when you figure in free housing, free food, various extra allowances (hazardous duty pay, overseas pay, tax free, etc), and paid vacations, it evened things out.
Anna...aaaah, those "tiny little tea leaves." Thankfully, I will indeed have plenty of time when I get there. I arrive in October and am not expecting to work until August...lots and lots of time. While I'd prefer Ubon, I'm open to other cities, but am hesitant to work outside of Issan (like the food, people, and lifestyle there too much, although I haven't experienced the north yet...will do that when back in the LOS in a few weeks). Oh...and this isn't my thread...forget who posted it. I've just me monopolizing it, I guess. 555
Tao...best of luck then!
That should read "I've just been*...wonder why the Edit Post option isn't working for me. Must be my crappy Internet...oh well. Oh-Dark-Thirty is going to arrive fast, so I suppose it's time to call it a night anyway.
Okay - goodnight. Don't be a stranger.
Jesus is coming, open your mouth!
Proving your worth may just mean not getting the boot. Countrywide, Thailand doesn't run on the merit system. It's not its culture.
"Goddamn it Lord, bless oh ye this bacon..."
George Liquor American
I've said it before - Thailand is fast heading towards being Asia's top TEFL gap-year destination. Come and have a year or two in the sun, enjoy yourself and then go back to the real world. Oh and you'll even get paid 30K a month as well.

Leghila Beauty bags
CASE from the Washable Collection, £40.00 by Leghilà
Hands up the last time you cleaned your make-up bag. Didn't think so. Make-up bags can end up being filthy, unhygienic places where liquids leak and powders crumble creating a bag of mess which we carry around, dip into and apply on our faces. However these little pouches are vital as they protect both the cosmetic contents and the external environment of the handbags or suitcase they're within. Scrubbing spilt foundation out of the suede lining of your Marc Jacobs arm candy is a demoralising and futile exercise I can recommend to no-one.
If you're the kind of girl who needs her beauty booty with her at all times, it's time to invest in one of these Leghilà pouches. Made of sturdy neoprene, these bags can be machine washed at 30°c to come up sparkling each time. The bags come in 68 different colour combinations from neutral to neon. We recommend a bright high-vis colour which will be easily spotted in the depths of your bag for those lipstick emergency moments.

"Bubba's Inbox" has been pretty busy the past day or so. Of course it only figures that a post-game article which was quickly thrown together during the heat of the moment late on a Saturday night, would be quoted from and linked to, by every hockey blog from the Bahamas to the Northwest Territories. (slight exaggeration, but Puck Daddy's Blog and Kukla's Korner is enough).
It seems that more than a few hockey fans out there were less than enamoured with my brief analysis of the Canes/Islanders game, as well as my new found "dislike" for Dougie Weight.
In retrospect, perhaps I should have worded things somewhat differently and thought out my reasoning a bit better. After reviewing "the hit" a few more times, I will admit that Sutter was in a very awkward position which helped to precipitate the ill-affect of Weight's direct hit.
But.... I do still think that Weight needs to take some responsibility for the fact that he did knock Sutter out. Intentional or not, he lowered his shoulder, lined his target up, and went after him. Weight has been around long enough to know that bad things can happen when you do that to a vulnerable player. If the NHL is serious about limiting hits to the head, they need to take some kind of action whether these hits are accidental or not.
Even though Puck Daddy disagrees, I kind of like the analogy that one commenter left comparing those hits with a "high-sticking" infraction. When one player hits another with a high stick, it's unintentional, but it's still a penalty. Perhaps something like this should be done when a shoulder connects with a head?
Of course the blood-thirsty fans out there want more hits like this, not fewer. For instance, the Scott Stevens fan club still drools over the very thought of one player knocking another one out on the ice.
Seriously though, the NHL is in a tough spot. Fans don't want to eliminate hitting from the league, but it doesn't do the league any good to see it's big names knocked out of commission either. It also doesn't help to boost scoring, when skilled players are getting seriously injured. What should be done?
I don't have the answers, but it has been a healthy debate and it will go on.
James Mirtle recently ran an article about this subject himself and inserted a poll to see how people felt. Surprisingly enough, 38% felt that Weight's hit "should not be considered clean". Maybe I'm not alone afterall.
Many thanks for the words of wisdom and advice that many of you emailed me during the past couple of days. Although, I don't plan on moving to Europe anytime soon, and while I do enjoy watching women's hockey, I'm not going to stop blogging about the NHL. (I won't bother to mention some of the other suggestions).
But keep those cards and letters coming!

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Whether a child is homeschooled or attends a private or public school, author Kevin Swanson wants to lead parents to "Upgrade: 10 Secrets to the Best Education for Your Child."
"Swanson's views on education are refreshingly parent-centered," Jeffrey T. Riddle, pastor of Jefferson Park Baptist Church in Charlottesville, Va., says of the new book by the executive director of Christian Home Educators of Colorado.
Swanson also is the father of five children and an Orthodox Presbyterian pastor. His book is a Broadman & Holman release from LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention.
"He encourages Christian parents not to abandon their biblical responsibility for the education of their children," Riddle notes. "This burden cannot be passed on to the state or even to the church, but it is to be shouldered by godly parents. Christian parents will profit from a thoughtful reading of Upgrade."
Swanson broadly defines education as "the preparation of a child intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and physically for life and for eternity." Thus, a successful education is measured not solely academically but is achieved "when a child is prepared to make maximal use of his God-given talents and abilities in the accomplishment of the child's calling," Swanson writes.
The 10 principles in Upgrade underscore, for example, the preeminence of character; the value of mastering the basics; one-on-one instruction, sequential progression and life applications; and a child's individuality and need for relationships.
Riddle notes that homeschooling parents in particular "will be encouraged by reading and considering Swanson's 10 suggestions. One of the themes woven throughout these suggestions is that parents should not overly obsess about achieving academic standards in the mode of conventional classroom education. In secret six [the principle of doing the basics well], for example, Swanson suggests that teaching children the fundamental basics of reading and writing will go a long way in preparing them for life -- again, the real goal of education."
Swanson sees character as the foundational principle that parents strive to achieve in their children's education.
"If education were a house, character would be the concrete foundation, the structure, the studs, and the drywall," Swanson writes. Intelligence alone, he points out, does not produce a good person.
Concerning one-on-one instruction, Swanson writes that teachers with more than 20 students rarely can give more than six to seven minutes of individual time to each student. Parents can make a huge difference in their children's education by helping with whatever they're learning, Swanson writes, even if just sitting beside them while they do their homework.
Addressing the principle of individuality, Swanson reminds that different subjects come more quickly for different kids. The key is not to assume that a child who is slow in math now will be slow in math five years from now, he writes.
Learning style also is a key factor. While asking whether a child learns better by hearing something clearly or by seeing a visual depiction, he writes that most students "eventually learn to accommodate" the various methods of comprehension.
Comparisons are difficult to avoid when one sibling excels in math or reading while another struggles, Swanson acknowledges. Schools measure how students compare to others their age -- standardizations he sees as often being a hindrance instead of a help.
"The grade level on the spine of the [textbook] shouts out what every child is expected to achieve," Swanson writes. But a one-size-fits-all approach often leaves half of the class "intimidated" and the other half "bored." The end result, he writes, can be a "disastrous consequence of square pegs (or triangular pegs) jammed into round holes."
Upgrade closes with Swanson's call for parents to construct a vision for what they want in their children's education and to write down five to 10 goals setting forth bite-size steps and accomplishments.
Simply getting children to graduate from high school isn't enough. "We're not looking for mere survival for our children," Swanson writes.
"Attempting to educate and train children without a purpose, without a vision and without an understanding of the principles that govern that process is a sure way to fail," he notes. "Success will come when we are headed in the right direction, and we take one step at a time in that direction....
"If our mission is right, we can move ahead with faith and confidence, counting on the blessing of God," Swanson writes.
Adapted from reporting by Sara Horn and a book review by Jeffrey T. Riddle, pastor of Jefferson Park Baptist Church in Charlottesville, Va., at www.jpbcstylos.blogspot.com.

Gazette praised in the Commons
4:03pm Monday 16th June 2014 in News
THE Gazette was praised in the House of Commons for its key role in promoting the campaign for 100 apprenticeships to be created in 100 days.
The campaign, which ended earlier this month, led to 160 young people taking up apprenticeships.
The praise in the Commons came from Colchester MP Sir Bob Russell, who had launched the campaign earlier in the spring.
During Education Questions, Sir Bob said that if the Government was looking for examples of best practice in boosting apprenticeships then he would recommend the one which he had launched in Colchester.
He told fellow MPs the partners in the campaign were the Colchester Institute, Colchester Daily Gazette and the regional office of the National Apprenticeship Service.
Responding, Skills Minister Matthew Hancock MP acknowledged the important role played by the Gazette.

Body is light olive on the back and sides and yellow-white below with 12 - 20 narrow vertical bars on the body.
Natural lakes in Dickinson county and in the Missouri River. Its preferred habitat seems to be natural lakes that contain extensive amounts of aquatic vegetation.
Aquatic and terrestrial insects, planktonic crustacea, plant seeds, and fine algae material.
Grows to 2+ in. State Records are not documented for non-game species.
The banded killifish is a slender-bodied and laterally compressed topminnow. The snout is bluntly pointed, and the mouth is small, slanted and opens dorsally. It has a projecting lower jaw with very small teeth that are positioned in bands on both jaws. The dorsal fin is far posterior on the back, originating in advance of the anal fin, and has 10 to 13 rays. The anal fin has 9 to ll rays, pelvic fin 6 rays, and the caudal fin is rounded. A lateral line is absent, and there are 39 to 43 cycloid scales in the lateral series. The body is light olive on the back and sides and yellow-white below. There are usually 12 to 20 narrow vertical bars on the body. Adults average 2 inches or more in length.
The banded killifish usually school in groups of few to many, cruising just below the surface of weedy lakes. It feeds on a variety of items, such as aquatic and terrestrial insects, planktonic crustacea, plant seeds and fine algae material. Spawning occurs in late spring and early summer. The male courts, then selects a female. Eggs are released in clusters, fertilized and quickly develop a filament that adheres to the aquatic vegetation.

OTIS, Mass. – According to the Berkshire County District Attorney, a body has been found at the Otis Reservoir.
The District Attorney's Office says the man's body has been pulled on the third straight day of searching. Officials are not yet releasing the man's identity.
The Pittsfield Fire Department responded to the scene at approximately 2 p.m. Saturday, and a Berkshire County Sheriff dive team and State Police were also on the scene in what remained a rescue effort over the weekend.
Authorities said on Saturday a man in his twenties, his father, and a friend set out on the Otis Reservoir in the town of Otis to go fishing. The father and son decided to go swimming, but the son started to struggle, and officials said his father attempted to help him.
Dive crews have been searching underwater and using sonar to try and find him. Fire Chief Sandy Pinkham said neither men were wearing life jackets, which could have saved the man.
"It's very dangerous, I mean if you're out on a boat you should be wearing a life jacket even if you're an accomplished swimmer," said Pinkham.
The Hinsdale Fire Department, State Police, Berkshire County Sheriff's Office and Otis Rescue were on the scene Monday morning to resume the search of the young man. Officials now believe, however, that he has likely drowned, making the search a recovery effort.
Family and friends of the man were heartbroken as crews continued to come back to shore with no sign of him.
"I was shocked and really upset, because this is, I haven't really experienced anything like this," said Nicholas Perault of Pittsfield, friend of the missing man. "It's hard enough just to watch the family just so disappointed about this whole thing and this is all just a freak accident. It just happened out of nowhere and this is very disappointing."

Montenegro's Government adopted the Analysis of Macroeconomic Trends and Structural Reforms in 2012, which corresponds with the earlier projections that forecast the Montenegrin economy's growth of 0.5% in 2012.
The negative economic trends in the region and Europe, as well as bad weather conditions in the first quarter of 2012, had a huge impact on all types of economic and financial activities which lead to the economic decline of 2.4% in the first four months of 2012.
However, the results of the summer tourist season and the positive developments in agriculture brought about the recovery of the economy of 0.3% in the second quarter of 2012.
The third quarter, which contributes 32% in total GDP, is characterised by the growth in the service sector and electricity production, as well as good collection of revenues. As a result, the Analysis confirmed that it is realistic to expect that the country's economy will increase at the rate of 0.5% in 2012, the Cabinet meeting concluded.

Coulomb's law, balancing a ball with point charges
3 equal charges q are at the vertices of an equilateral triangle as shown, with the z-axis running through the midpoint of the triangle (such that the distance from each charge to the midpoint is d)
a bead of charge Qb (of equal sign as the 3 charges q) is supposed to be levitated on the positive z-azis (coming out of the midpoint of the triangle). Derive an expression for the coloumb force exerted on the bead as a function of its position on the positve z-axis
2. Relevant equations
F = (K * |q| * |Qb| ) / r^2 is the force in the radial direction (straight line connecting the 2 charges)
3. The attempt at a solution
OK I'm kind of having trouble here....
The force from each charge would simply be F = (K * |q| * |Qb| ) / (d^2 + z^2)
(by pythagorean theorem, the square of the line connecting each charge to any point on the positive z-azis would be d^2 + z^2)
So far so good
because of the way the charges are positioned positioned , the x and y components of the vectors will cancel each other in between the 3 charges (I think) so we're left toworry only about the z-component of each radial vector...but how do i do calculate for this z-component?
If i break down the radial force into 2 components, with one in the x-y plane and the other in the z-direction, then the angle etween the xy-plane component and the radial component is tan^-1 (z/d)....but now hat i have the hypotenuse ((K * |q| * |Qb| ) / (d^2 + z^2) ) and the angle tan^-1 (z/d), how do i isolate for just the z-component of the radial vector?
z-component of the vector would be the hypotenuse times cos of the angle....but i have the angle expressed as inverse tan of (z/d) so how can i take the cos of something i only have expressed as that? I am totally lost as to how to derive this expression...
Re: Coulomb's law, balancing a ball with point charges
Radial force can be written as F = i*Fx + j*Fy + k*Fz
Direction of the F is given by direction cosines. z component of the F = Fz = F*cos(gamma)= F*z/r. This is due to one charge.
Re: Coulomb's law, balancing a ball with point charges
So how does cos(gamma) come out to z/r?
Re: Coulomb's law, balancing a ball with point charges
OH never midn i udnerstand where it comes from....If i do it by similar triangles than
Fz / Ftot = z / r
Fz = Ftot * z/r
So i guess Fz = kqQb * z / (Z^2+D^2)^2
thanks for the help :)

For some, 2012 was a banner year.
Companies saw profits rise despite the stagnant economy, tourism to Las Vegas began to increase, and developers started planning projects to better accommodate both visitors and residents.
But the past year also presented challenges for many in the business community.
A handful of business leaders were named in lawsuits and criminal investigations, union members squabbled with employers, and the real estate market continued to twist and turn.

A sound of their own
Hannah & Maggie + Julia Weldon LiveUnion Hall (702 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215) Map it $12
Featuring: Hannah & Maggie, Julia Weldon, Jus Post Bellum
Hannah & Maggie
Bright-eyed and bolstered by a rapidly growing fan base, this award-winning NYC duo has set out to make the world of singer-songwriters a more cheerful place. Although they've been compared to Simon & Garfunkel and The Indigo Girls, these ladies have a sound all their own. With two studio-albums and a couple barnstorming national tours under their belt, Hannah & Maggie show no signs of stopping. Their third CD, In The Company of Strangers, will be released on February 25.
Julia Weldon
Light Is a Ghost is the follow up to Brooklyn indie-folk-pop artist Julia Weldon's 2008 self-titled debut. Produced by Saul MacWilliams (Ingrid Michaelson, Dan Romer) and featuring Adam Christgau (Sia, Tegan and Sara) on drums, the album showcases Weldon's storytelling, voice, and unmistakable charisma.
Weldon's album unfurls as an evolving ride through life, family and relationships, complete with the necessary loss, regret, resentment, and debauchery. Classic while being contemporarily resonant, the album's twelve tracks draw on everything from indie folk to blues rock, dialoguing with current artists like Bon Iver, Iron and Wine, and Cat Power as well as legends like Bob Dylan, Elliott Smith and Suzanne Vega. A self-taught, nationally touring musician, Julia Weldon's possessing personality and captivating music crosses bridges and divides. With unfailing fingers, she tells stories that feel both intensely personal and widely universal. Unapologetically herself, Weldon's songs grab you— asking you to pull up a chair, pour yourself a whiskey, and stay a while.

With this camera I think Canon will push more people like me toward the Leica S2 for their studio needs and the 1DX will serve as an on location, editorial, sports and events camera. I was hoping Canon would fill that high resolution gap with this camera because buying into the Leica system is ridiculously expensive, not to mention I'm not all that crazy about their overly simplistic interface. I've been on the fence about whether to take the financial plunge into the Leica world hoping Canon would introduce something in the 25-35MP range to compete with the S2, but it seems now I don't have a choice.
I'm still new to this whole photography thing, so excuse the ignorance. What does the Leica give you in the studio that the Canon does not? Thanks!
No problem, The Leica S2 is a borderline Medium Format camera that has a huge 37MP sensor in lightweight camera no bigger than a Pro body DSLR. Not to mention that sensor is about 60% larger than a FF 35mm camera. It's great for fashion or studio photographers who need extreme detail in their shots and/or know their images will be blown up to billboard sized advertisements.

News: Cam'ron Says Dipset's Swag Threw Off Jay-Z, "He Doesn't Like People Just As Good As Him" [Video]
Saturday, Oct 1, 2011 7:55PM
Dipset's Cam'ron recently addressed his past feud with rap mogul Jay-Z and why the Roc-A-Fella co-founder allegedly felt threatened by internal competition.
Speaking to hip-hop personality Miss Info, Cam gave his stance on Hov.
"I think he's a good, great businessman," Cam said referring to Jay. "But he's a competitor. He doesn't like people just as good or who may be better on the same level as him. Not dissing him but [Memphis] Bleek and [Beanie Sigel] is like coming underneath him. I always want Jim [Jones] or Juelz [Santana] to be equal or above me because I'd rather kick back and chill out. But people [like us] coming to that label with the same amount of talent and the same amount of, well, no, pardon me, way more swag. You know what I'm saying? He couldn't handle it." (Real Talk NY)
In 2009, Killa Cam credited Hov for helping save hip-hop with his Blueprint III release.
"Jay-Z done made it look real good," Cam said in an interview. "Jay-Z just sold 530,000 so it's still looking good. Whenever there's ever anybody out in New York still doing over half a million in a week, it's still available. I don't really f*ck with Jay but I got mad respect for anybody who makes money and anybody who still sells that much records after having a lot of albums out. Jay-Z really definitely did help out New York a lot." (Hip Hop Beef)
Cam previously said he respected Jay's hustle and work ethic as a businessman.
"I ain't got no problems with Jay-Z. On the real, I don't even f*ck with Jay-Z, but I got mad respect for the n*gga. Anybody who make money, got a million dollars to their name, I respect anybody who make money. I respect MC Hammer when Hammer was getting money. Personally? I don't really know the n*gga, I f*cked with Dame [Dash] and Biggs. But I ain't got no problems." (Sub 0 DVD)
Cam's issues with Jay reportedly began prior to the release of his Roc-A-Fella Records debut after a dispute over a record.
"F*cking Kanye [West] sells us a few beats, we watching the 'BET Awards,'" Jim Jones said in a video. "Jay-Z's about to perform his new single and he gets up there and its the beat we bought from Kanye which would now be 'H to the Izzo.' So now we steaming...Just Blaze blazed the 'Oh Boy' beat. We took that [from Jay-Z], that was ours. Strong arm, good lookin' Just Blaze." (King Mag)
Cam'ron was signed to Roc-A-Fella Records from 2001 through 2005 before signing a deal with Asylum/Warner Bros. Records.

The Good Lyfe crew duo, Moze Radio and Weasel are going to construct a beach.
The duo has already acquired land near a lake and they are set to begin construction of the beach soon.
According to local media, construction on the beach is set to begin late this year ahead of next year's opening.
It has become a trend in Uganda for music artists to own a beach where videos and entertainment takes route. If the construction of the beach is successful, Radio and Weasel will join other artists like Ragga Dee and Bobi Wine who both own beaches in Entebbe.

KIROTV.COM/BURIEN, Wash. - A
Burien woman feared the worst when she received a text message asking
where to hide a body, and a Joint Base Lewis-McChord soldier is under
investigation after police learned the message was a hoax.
The Burien woman asked not to be identified because she doesn't want to be identified as the person who called police.
Police said the woman recently received a text from an unknown number that asked "Where do I hide the body?"
Wanting to learn more, her husband texted back: "You tell me."
The sender responded.
was your idea. I'm not taking heat for this (expletive). You wanted
him gone and now he is. You said you had a place. Where the (expletive)
are you?"
The woman and her husband called police, and a King County Sheriff's Office detective opened a homicide investigation.
A search warrant was filed and the phone number lead police to the sender.
my understanding he is a service member at Joint Base Lewis-McChord,
and I can tell you from experience, he'll probably get more punishment
from his commanding officers than he will from the courts," said
Sheriff's Office spokesperson Cindi West.
The "Where do I
hide the body," text message is apparently a common social media hoax
that encourages people to send the message to random phone numbers.
But the recipient didn't think it was funny.
wording is scary. I want it to be a joke. I want to think it's a joke,
but what if it's not? Someone out there might need some help," said the
Burien woman.
It was also no joke to the King County Sheriff's Office.
"The time it takes to do this was time we could have spent better off solving another crime," said West.
A spokesman for JBLM, Lt. Col. Gary Dangerfield, said they are investigating the incident.

Governor signs four bills to tackle human traffickingUPDATED 7:21 PM HST Jul 01, 2013
Experts say human trafficking is the second most lucrative offense next to drug trafficking.Video Transcript
was indicted- Four more bills were signed into law to tackle the growing issue of human trafficking. Experts say it's the second most lucrative offense - next to drug trafficking. KITV4's Lara Yamada joins us with more... on why lawmakers still have a long way to go. Lara. It wasn't until 2011, that Hawaii saw its FIRST human trafficking law. And to this day, Hawaii has consistently ranked as one of the worst states in the nation when it comes to Human and Sex Trafficking. But today, lawmakers proved, they're trying to change that. VICTIM Out on the streets it's very hard. It felt like forever. A family member recruited DeeDee at 16-years-old. Then, an abusive pimp made her work the streets of Waikiki. GOV 2655-59 What's involved here are a lot of underdogs. New laws enacted today are a crackdown on criminals who pursue girls like Deedee. Senate Bill 192 makes solicitation of a minor for prostitution a crime -- up until now -- only resulting in a fine equivalent to a parking ticket. Bill 194 means so-called "johns" can no longer have their records cleared after six months of good behavior. Many businesses are now required to post a human trafficking hotline. And, child trafficking becomes a form of abuse -- opening up state services for victims. There's also more support for the children who have been violated. COFFIELD 2820-28 There will be an increase in the reporting of these victims, and subsequently, we will see an increase in the services provided to these children. In December, Shared Hope International released its national report on child sex trafficking laws: Hawaii got a big F. KALEI Every time I ran away, my pimp at the time would find me and abuse me worse than the times before. For Kalei, a encounter at a bar entangled her in an underground world. She and Deedee are just two of many examples fueling avocates to push harder. OAKLAND 3429-38 Human trafficking is not spoken of very often. I think it took things happening on the national level for this to come about. Advocates say Hawaii's high rates of homeless children, missing kids, incarcerated girls, teen suicide, and incest all ripen our environment for sex traffickers. XIAN 3754 We need to take a look at how we deal with the issues surrounding poverty, race, and class, and really take proactive steps to heal our community. This session, Senator Chun- Oakland cemented This session, Senator Chun- Oakland cemented 400- grand for the beginnings of an assessment center - where victims can get quality help. And: advocates are already working on the next legislative session: focusing on a "Save Harbor Bill" to protect child sex trafficking victims from prosecution. Also: prosecuting police -- if in prostitution cases -- they overstep the law. Back to you.

This is a great sport climb. Gain the arete (way hard!) and climb straight up making the crux on tenuous, reachy moves on perfectly small crimps to a thank God jug. Then stem acrobatically to the chimney feature, and finally a run up the slab to the anchors. This was impressively bolted on the lead.

I've downloaded the ISO for knoppix5.1.1 and made a good cd, which checks out fine on md5sum. The command "knoppix-installer" wouldn't work on the startup screen, so I went into the GUI and did it there. The installer came up, but I couldn't install knoppix to my computer because a window came up saying I didn't meet the system requirements. It said to make sure I had the right-sized partitions and all that.
I know that I have plenty of memory (768mb) and harddrive space (2 partitions with 40gb each and a 217mb swap). The window also gave me a command to bypass that menu, but it didn't do a thing. I have windows xp on the first partition and Knoppix 5.0.1 on the other. Can anyone help me on this? I'm crippled and can't install knoppix unless I fix this. Thanks.

In anticipation of yet another season, why not reminisce? What are your top 10 moments -- single-play moments of jaw-dropping, fist pumping, screaming laughter and pure exhilaration -- in Vikings' history? Just for fun, here are some candidates:
10. Page lateral. I don't recall the year -- it was the late 60's, and I was a child -- but it was a very snowy field and I think the Vikes were playing the Lions. The Purple People Eaters were dominating the game. Page (I think) picked up a fumble, lumbered down the snow-covered field, got tackled, lateraled the abll to another DL (Marshall?), who ran the ball in for a defensive score. The dominance, the snow-covered field, the pure joy of the play. Hard to forget, but I am as a I get older (maybe it was Page who received the lateral?...)
9. Blocked Field Goal against the Rams. Again, I can only vaguely recall this play now, and the details are fuzzy. I think it was against the Rams in a playoff game in early 70's, and the Rams were kicking a gimme field goal (within 20 yards) in the 2d half, and I think it may have been Bobby Bryant, but I don't really remember, who picked up the blocked field goal and returned it for TD. Talk about a game-changer!
8. Winfield Hat Trick. Last year against the Panthers. Winfield blitzes, crunches the QB from his blind side, picks up the fumble and returns it 20+ yards for the score. Watching it live was a Zen-like moment. You could see it all unfolding before your eyes -- almost in slow-motion -- hoping that Winfield would get there before the QB released the ball. And then, the total payoff. Hard to think of a Viking more deserving of such big play glory than Winfield. Sack, fumble, return for a TD. Total dominance -- by a CB no less -- at a time in the game (and season) when the team desparately needed it.
7. AC's Punt Return. Against the favored Saints in the Playoffs, on a day in which the smallest the guy on the field seemingly single handedly took over the game and produced the upset in 1987. Among a day of several incredible plays, this punt return was the clincher. Total dominance by a paper thin acrobat in a game played by giants. WOW.
6. Rashad's Hail Mary Catch. 1981? Last game of regular season, Vikes needed a win to make the playoffs. 4th quarter, less than 20 seconds to go, Vikes have no timeouts and need to go 70+ some yards for a TD to win. After an incredible hook-and-lateral play gets them to midfield, somebody (Kramer?) heaves the Hail Mary into the corner at the goal line, the ball is batted, and Rashad hauls it in with one hand and falls backwards across the goal line for the win. Last Vikings game I watched with my Dad before he passed away.
5. "Randy Moss, You Have Arrived!" On Monday Night in the rain in Lambeau in 1998, Moss goes deep, leaps a foot higher than multple defenders draped all over him, hauls the wet ball in, the defenders fall ti the ground, and Moss bolts for the TD. Again, a display of total dominance, one that portended the greatness to come. Perfectly punctuated by Dierdorf's exclamation at the end of the instant replay.
4. Smith torches the Bears. Robert Smith Again on Monday Night, this time against the Bears at Soldier Field, a rookie named Robert Smith takes a routine handoff and goes through the line -- either through the 4 hole or off-tackle, I can't recall, and immediately faces the bears LB about to smack him 3 yards passed the line. Smith stops and cuts 90 degress to the left simultaneously, and runs parallel with thegoal line from the middle of the field to the sideline, outrunning the entire Bears defense with pure speed, and the turns it up field for a 50-yard TD. Finding the hole and gettting through it, the cut, the blazing speed on wet natural grass, AGAINST THE BEARS ON MONDAY NIGHT! The only thing missing was Dierdof yelling, Robert Smith, You Have Arrived. But that was what I was thinking at the time. A jaw-dropping run.
3 . Moss torches the Pack in the Playoffs. 2004-05. As i mentioned in a comment I posted yesterday, this was one of the most momentous and heroic plays in Vikings history. 4th Q, Vikings trailing, Moss limited by a painful sprained ankle, he beats the Packers secondary with his deceptive speed (even with a bum ankle!) down the right sideline, hauls in the pass and wins the playoff game -- at Lambeau! But for Moss' controversial personality, this would be remembered by the national media as one of the greatest individual plays by an NFL player ever -- beating the team's arch rival. At their stadium. In the playoffs. Late in the 4th Q. With dominating speed, on a bum ankle. Alas, the historic aspect of the play was eclipsed by Moss' decision to moon the Packers' fans in the endzone in celebration, which is all anyone could talk about it afterwards. (It was up to Tony Dungy to explain the hilarity of Moss' stunt to the world, but by then it was too late). But the play itself, as it unfolded, was incredible, given the circumstances.
2. Moss torches the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. Again in that incredible 1998 season, Moss showed his total dominance over the mere mortals on the other side of the ball, but when that happens against those dam# Cowboys on Thanksgiving, it just feels SO GOOD! The flea-flicker, Moss waits for it as the pathetic DB's try to get back to him, catches it, moves ever so fluidly as the DBs fall over themselves and Moss non-chalantly skips into the end zone, causing Jerry Jones to choke on his turkey leg. Again, endless laughter in total amazement.
1. Peterson torches the Bears. Oct 14th, 2007, at Soldier Field, on a day when AD "arrives" and torches the Bears for 224 yards and 3 long TD runs, the clincher was in the 2d half. After breaking a 67-yarder and a 73-yarder in the first half against the hopelessly overmatched Bears defense, Peterson shows the most explosive combination of power and speed I have ever seen in the second half on a routine run to the left off-tackle and just blows by the entire Bears defense, seemingly stuck in cement, for a 35-yard score to seal the win. The first 2 TD's were maybe more impressive, but that is what made the 3rd so exhilirating. What made it seem so unbelievable was not just the dominance, the power and the speed -- it was the 3rd time THAT game he had done it to the Bears. It was like the whole Bears defense was on the mat, imitating Duran: "No mas!" I laughed for 5 minutes in amazement.
With the exception of the blocked field goal against the Rams and Rashad's Hail Mary catch (which were so memorable because they were so stunning), the common elements of all these single moments in Vikings history is the sheer dominance displayed byt he players who made the plays -- dominance that was so exciting both because the play was so huge and because it left you feeling that they could do it again, repeatedly, because they were so much better than everyone else. It makes every play, every game after that exciting to watch. What are they going to do THIS time!

Yesterday evening, Saks Fifth Avenue threw a party celebrating the third season of the hit show Scandal and also unveiled window displays modeled after Kerry Washington's character, Olivia Pope. Apparently the actress and Scandal's costume designer, Lyn Paolo, were up late Tuesday night adding some finishing touches to the windows. "My flight landed in New York at 1 a.m., and I hopped in the car and told my driver, 'Take me to Saks!'" Washington told Style.com. "It's closed,' he told me, and I said, 'I know, but we need to go there right now!' We were running all over Fifth Avenue comparing our window to other windows." Although they admitted the Saks visuals team was phenomenal, both Washington and Paolo said they just had a much more particular vision of how Pope dresses, hence the middle-of-the-night switcheroo.
It was an anecdote that the show's creator, Shonda Rhimes, found particularly humorous, although she confessed that she's not quite as type A as Washington and Paolo when it comes to fashion sense. "I'm a person who would be wearing pajamas every day if you let me. I knew when we were doing Washington, D.C., that I wanted to make [the city] a bit more fashionable than it actually is. That's why I hired Lyn—she is just so good at what she does."

Frankfort Troopers Receive Highway Safety Awards
Date of News Release: 04/17/2012
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - It's not often that law enforcement gets thanked for the work they've done for highway safety. In fact, usually it's the opposite. But today, several received much needed thanks and congratulations as Kentucky State Police honored eight members of their agency who went above and beyond the call of duty to make the highways safer. The "Excellence in Highway Safety" Awards are based upon the highest number of occupant protection, speed, driving under the influence (DUI), commercial motor vehicle (CMV) citations written and educational programs provided during 2011.
KSP Lt. Col. Leslie Gannon presented the awards in a ceremony held at KSP headquarters on April 17, 2012.
"Traffic enforcement blended with public education has a direct impact on the highways by removing dangerous drivers from the road and providing consistent traffic safety messaging to the public. The individuals receiving awards today are to be commended for the lives they have helped to save," says Gannon.
Trooper First Class (TFC) Ron Turley and Trooper Eddie Whitworth from the Frankfort Post were award recipients.
Trooper First Class (TFC) Ron Turley is a twenty-five year veteran from the Frankfort Post and received the Excellence in Highway Safety Award for Community Education by hosting 369 educational programs relating to highway safety issues.
Frankfort Post Commander, Lt. Jerry Wise, was not surprised that Turley received the award for community education.
"TFC Turley takes great pride in educating the citizens of the Commonwealth in highway safety. For the past several years he has taught AAA Driving classes, Alive at 25, Community and business programs. These classes teach drivers how to improve their driving skills and help mature drivers be more comfortable behind the wheel," says Wise.
"Turley has a great passion for educating youth and seniors in methods to increase their safety while driving."
Turley resides in Lexington with his wife Edith. He has two children Jaslynn and Brittany.
Tpr. Eddie Whitworth is a three-year veteran from the Frankfort Post and received the Excellence in Highway Safety Award for highest number of DUI Arrests. Trooper Whitworth made 215 DUI arrests in 2011.
Lt. Wise said Whitworth's accomplishments in DUI detection are outstanding.
"There is no doubt that he has played a major part of our reduction in DUI related fatalities in the Post 12 area. He is to be commended for his diligence in making our highways safer," says Wise.
Whitworth resides in Shelbyville with his wife Tammy and son Alston. He is the son of Linda Whitworth of Louisville, Ky.
Lt. Col. Gannon thanked all the award recipients for their desire to save lives and make the Commonwealth safer for Kentuckians.
"We have a group of officers who go beyond what is normally expected of them and we want to show them how much we appreciate what they do. Their efforts have a direct impact on reducing deaths in Kentucky. They make a real contribution to keeping roadways safer throughout the state," she said.
Other recipients were Tpr. Nathan Clinkenbeard (Occupant Protection); Tpr. Jason Young (Speed); Ofr. Randy Ferrell (CMV Highest # of Safety Inspections); Insp. William Moore (Safety Inspections); and Ofr. Anthony Bersaglia (CMV Enforcement).
"The men and women who serve this agency every day by patrolling our roadways made an incredible impact in 2011. Statewide, KSP troopers and CVE officers wrote 75,993 speed citations, 39,961 seat belt/restraint citations, 32,260 CMV citations, made 7,404 DUI arrests and provided local communities with 3,130 educational programs pertaining to public safety. All of these officers are to be commended," added Gannon.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555. Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
