From the article: What Is a Dominican Blowout?
Have you had a Dominican blowout? If so, share your story, whether it was a great experience or a nightmare. Did you love it, hate it, lose some hair over it or is the best thing that's ever happened to your mane? Share Your Story
Love it!
- This is my first experience and I must say, I love it. My hair is silky and straight. I'm natural and haven't had any heat on my hair in about 6 months or more, so I went in with a head full of curls. The lady that did my hair was extremely gentle and did apply a heat protectant before rolling my hair. She was very gentle...no sore head for me. Not sure how often I'll go yet, since it is quite a bit of heat.

Dominican blow dry the best!!!
- I have over 20 years treating my hair with Dominicans and they are simply the best! I travel a lot for business, and whenever I see myself forced to try something else, it has been horrible experiences. Dominicans specialty is the way they train twisting the brush! It's amazing how the effect of rolling the hair without letting go of the tension and applying the proper hotness can do to your hair. I am biracial and my hair is fine, wavy and frizzy. There's a misconception that Dominicans are best with coarse, kinky hair but no, they do great job with ANY type of hair. My hair is very long and I LOVE the natural bouncy hair look I get when a Dominican does my hair! Try it and don't pay mind to haters trying to bring them down just because they had one bad experience.
- —Guest Myra
bitter sweet
- I loved the end result but the way they would pull it and put the blow dryer on high and straight to my scalp was crazy.
- —Guest kwazi
- I am suprised that only people from D R can do a good Blow out. In Europe you can get it done everywhere. Spain, Sweden, whenever. It is included in all trainings to become a hair dresser. In Scandinavia it takes 3 years if you do it formally but there are private schools where you can do it in 1.5 - 2 years. Courses included are chemistry, ecology/environment, so they are well educated and know how to treat your hair. I don't understand those people who put their hair in the hands of people with a month's training and then get surprised that they cant handle hair.
- —Guest Leena
My first blow- out
- I loved the end results! I also love how quick the whole process took. There was no one eating, talking on the phone, or leaving in the middle of completing your hair to pick up their child. The price was also great, much lower than a typical salon for women of African American descent.
- —Guest Latisha
Love It!!
- I have had my hair natural since 2006 (locs) and cut them off Dec 2011. I've been growing my fro and went to this Dominican shop on Cascade Rd in ATL. Yeah, the wait was long but perfection has only happened instantly once (Jesus Christ). The results were so beautiful. The price was great and the customer service was excellent... I can tell this will be a special occasion type thing because I'm scared of damage but I will definitely be getting it done again!!!!!!
- —Guest Crystal
Cont... one size does not fit all
- If u had a bad experience once, don't lump all Dominican Salons into the bad category.U have good stylists who care about your hair & bad stylists who don't care if they mess your hair up, regardless of Nationality. Just bcuz a stylist is from DR, doesn't mean they'll automatically do a good job. There are stylists of other nationalities trained by Dominican Stylists in the technique that are great as well. A good salon, Dominican or not, will do a new client consultation for all chemical services and upon request for a simple wash & set with blowout & address your concerns before they perform the service. Intimate salons tend to pay more attention to detail, salons that are run like assembly lines not as much. Prices are very different regionally. NYC is the cheapest, but also the state with the most pseudo licensed stylists. Credentials are easily bought in DR that state an individual attended beauty school & then they apply for license reciprocity in USA. Some, NOT ALL, do this.
- —Guest Ty
One size does not fit all
- The Dominican Blowout is a technique perfected by beauticians in DR. All Beauticians who specialize in this technique are not alike & I think the mistake that a lot of women make is thinking because the stylist is Dominican, they will do a good job. Not always the case. U have to do your due diligence, especially if your hair is damaged or damages easily! Ask clients who are leaving questions, pay attention to details like the blow dryers, do u see paper in the back where the filter is? Is the filter in the back filled with lint or hair? If so, the dryer is fixed to be hotter than normal, which is fine for some hair, not so much for others, especially damaged hair. In the wrong hands, this dryer will burn your hair, in the right hands, they will know how to direct the concentrator away so that your hair is not burned. Can they speak English? Or is there someone on staff that can translate your needs and concerns clearly? If not, u may not want to try chemical services there just yet.

Domican Hair Salons
- My experience is very pleasant every time I go. I have been getting my hair done there as long as I can remember, well since i was 8, (I'm only 13) and I love it. At first I wasn't used to it because all of the heat but now I am & it doesn't hurt, and where I go they are very understanding if it's too much heat. I honestly don't have to tell them to turn it down because they know how I like getting it done.
- —Guest k
Blow out
- It was amazing...my hair was silky and soft...I will be able to stretch my hair out for about 6 months. I will continue...thank God my first time was amazing
- —Guest Purple lady
- I received the Dominican Blowout for the 1st time a month ago which was in February 2013 and it was a blessing from GOD for me. And I will return. Ladies, before any stylist does your hair please pray for their head and heart. I say this because spirits, bad or good, can be transferred from head to head and heart to heart. So pray first and you will have the best results with any stylist. It's all about putting GOD 1st with anything. I was taught to pray for people and anything that I wanted. Praying to GOD Almighty has never hurt anybody. Try it, you'll love the results GOD gives you!!!
- —Guest Ann
Dominican Blowout is the best thing for
- I started going to the Dominican shops around 6 years ago. My hair has NEVER been this long before. I do take my own shampoo and I only go maybe once a month. I do not put any heat to my hair once its done by the Dominicans. If you have thick coarse hair I recommend it. If you have thin fine hair it can be too much heat for you.
- —Guest Carolyn
Awesome experience
- The first time getting a Dominican Blowout was terrible. The heat and the burns turned me against getting them, but I decided to get another blowout a few months later. This time around the experience was sooooo much better. I was able to wear my hair nice and straight for 3 weeks. It is a wondeful experience, but you have the right person to do it.
- —Guest Tiffany
It was amazing! (:
- Hi everyone. My name is Ceddranique, and I'm 13 years old. The first time I heard of a DB was from my friend, Darian. She's mixed. (I'm just African-American). & she had told me she gets them, along with the Brazillian Blowout. So I did a little reasearch and watched some YouTube videos, (they were verrrryy informational). I told my Mom about them and she did research too. She set up an appoinment, and they washed like 6 times, sat me under the dryer for about 45 min., conditioned, then put rollers in, then back under the dryer for about 20 min., they then took out rollers & used a steam blow dryer & flat ironed. My hair looked GREAT! It was a wondeful experience!!(: And my Mom says I don't ever gave to get a perm again, so I'm pretty happy. :D
- —Guest Ceddranique Stewart
The WORST hair experience of my life !!!
- I am African American mixed with Native American & some Irish...and my hair ( which is coarse ) was healthier BEFORE I got the dominican blowout, than after. My hair was healthier when I used relaxers BEFORE I got the dominican blowout. The blowout ( which I got only TWICE...with a long span in between ) RUINED my hair. I'm very gentle with my hair, they treated it like it was nothing & was SO rough even after I told them to be gentle. The detangling was horrible since they combed my hair WHILE STILL SOPPING WET. And blow dried for 40 min straight. I don't know HOW woman go through [this]; is everyone stupid? This DAMAGES the hair & esp. mine. I would NEVER, EVER wish a dominican blowout on my worst enemy. If your thinking about doing this, DON'T. Your hair will thank you, trust me just try something else don't put your hair through this nightmare.

Located on the banks of the Ohio River in southwest Indiana, Angel Mounds State Historic Site is one of the best-preserved pre-contact Native American sites in North America. Built between A.D. 1050 and 1400, the town was occupied by 1,000 plus Mississippians. The society built 11 earthen mounds as platforms to elevate important buildings. The original town covered an area of 103 acres and served as an important religious, political and trade center for people living within a 75-mile radius.
The site was abandoned before European explorers came to North America. Possible explanations for abandonment are depletion of natural resources, climatic changes or the collapse of the chiefdom.
More than 600 acres comprise Angel Mounds State Historic Site. The site includes an interpretive center, recreations of the Mississippian buildings and a working reconstruction of the 1939 WPA archaeology laboratory. The 500-acre non-archaeological portion of the site contains a nature preserve with hiking and biking trails.

Bora, Achyut and Bid, Aveek and Raychaudhuri, A. K (2007) Stability of metal nanowires (d >= 15 nm) against electromigration. JOURNAL OF NANOSCIENCE AND NANOTECHNOLOGY, 7 (6). pp. 1831-1835. ISSN 1533-4880

We have studied stability of metal nanowires against electromigration damage when they are subjected to high current density. Silver nanowires of diameter ranging from 15 nm to 100 nm were synthesized with electrochemical method using template route. Electromigration study was accompanied with in-situ low frequency electric resistance fluctuation or 1/f noise measurement in the nanowires. It was observed that nanowires with smaller diameter stayed without substantial damage even after 10 to 14 days of continuous stressing with a current of density of the order of 1012 A/m2, while those with larger diameter get damaged much sooner. Noise measurements show that for nanowires with smaller diameter, noise spectra remains almost same for the entire duration of current stressing whereas in case of nanowires of larger diameter, spectral power of noise (SV(f) ∞ 1/fα) as well as the frequency exponent, α, increases as the electromigration process progresses. This is similar to that seen in metal films.

Lunch On The Bank
- Thursday, January 30, 2014
A pastor and two of his deacons are out on the river fishing in their rowboat. Twelve o'clock rolls around, and one of the deacons notices a nice spot on the bank to have lunch. He turns to the others and says, "That looks like a nice spot for lunch. What do you say we have lunch over there?"
The other deacon agrees, and so does the pastor. The deacon stands up in the boat, steps out onto the river and walks over to the bank. The pastor looks on with amazement, and thinks to himself, if his deacon is holy enough to walk on water, surely he can.
The other deacon stands up, picks up the picnic basket, steps out of the boat, and walks over to the bank and sits with the first deacon. Again, to his amazement, the pastor thinks again, if his second deacon is holy enough to walk on water, surely he can.
The pastor stands up, steps out of the boat, and sinks into the water. The first deacon turns to the second and says, "Think we should have told him where the rocks are?"
*Thanks to Pastor Tim for this joke!*

A few of you may have caught a recent twitter I posted celebrating the fact that I'd finally reached 250K gold. (I also talked about it a bit on Podcast Episode 015 (around 2:11).) Like many of you out there reaching certain milestones grants us to the opportunity to write about our experiences and have them posted on WarcraftEcon's Hall of Fame.
I took advantage of this chance myself yesterday and did my Hall of Fame interview and got it sent off to WarcraftEcon. Writing my 250K interview gave me a chance to reflect back on some of the things that helped me get to 250K but also on some of the feelings I've had inside as a gold-blogger and the stigma that I thought existed in the community for those who hadn't "made it" so to speak due to never having reached an "important" gold milestone.
After the jump I discuss what my thoughts and feelings are on the topic of the importance of milestones as well as my advice for those who may be struggling with thoughts of inadequacy.
While I won't spoil my Warcraft Econ interview I did want to share one question that I feel really sums up what I considered to be the reason I was reluctant to discuss my gold totals with anyone.
Q: Do many people know you have this amount of gold?
A: Not on my server. I generally don't talk to anyone on my server about my gold. As far as outside the game I haven't made my gold totals public up until this point. I think part of it was feeling inadequate as I saw readers of my blog and other bloggers reaching much higher gold milestones than myself. As someone who blogs about making gold I guess I felt a bit of pressure to "prove myself" by having some huge amount of gold. I have since gotten over my initial trepidation about talking about my gold totals. While I don't think I'll worry bringing it up again (at least not until I feel I've reached another significant milestone) at least I don't feel ashamed or defensive anymore when someone asks me how much gold I have.
In this answer to the WarcraftEcon question I bring up that I've let certain people's opinions in the community of what a "gold blogger" should be affect me. In my life I've always been one who likes to think what other people say doesn't affect me and that I'm a happy person no matter what. As much as I like to tell myself this the truth is that we are all affected by what others say.
When someone we respect tells us that they value our opinion less because we haven't reached a certain gold value it hurts. As much as they try to play it off and say "it's not a big deal" it obviously is or they wouldn't be saying that they respect those who have made XX amount of gold over others who haven't. It's pretty clear they they believe gold totals are important.
But I don't want to get sidetracked. What I want to tell everyone here today is that it doesn't matter how much gold you have. Gold milestones are nice sign posts along our gold-making journeys. They are nice to use as bookmarks to say "I remember whey I hit XX gold." But they don't make you a better or worse gold-maker. They don't validate (or invalidate) your opinions or ideas about gold-making.
We celebrate gold-making milestones here at Power Word: Gold. (See Community Gold-Making Milestones.) We love sharing in the celebration and joy that reaching your own gold making milestones can bring. We will never however value anyone's opinion less if you've never reached some massive gold total. No one should ever feel bad about themselves because they feel that they are not "living up" to what they think others expect of them.
In the past I've been guilty of this. While I am a very private person (I don't generally give out my server or character names for example) I can see that looking back I let others (who did know my gold totals) make me feel ashamed of the fact I didn't have as much gold as they did. I regret that.
Gold making is a journey not a destination. As long as you're enjoying yourself making gold in World of Warcraft please don't be like me and let someone else's expectations of "success" make you feel inadequate or small. You are fantastic simply because you are you. Your opinions, ideas and experiences matter just as much as anyone else's. Don't ever let someone make you feel different.

Witty banter and solid — though unspectacular — performances helped capture the audience in "Butterflies are Free," playing through Feb. 16 at the Limelight Theatre in St. Augustine.
Written by Leonard Gershe in 1969, the play centers around a young blind man, Don, who moves out of his overbearing mother's house and tries to make it on his own in the big city. After a month, he meets the girl next door — a zany, outgoing and ditzy divorcee named Jill. An inevitable and rather predictable romantic fling ensues.
Constant puns on blindness keep the play from becoming too emotional or boring. The loudest laugh came when Jill was explaining how she became a hippie to rebel against her mother. Then, her mother loved the idea and followed in her footsteps. That's when Jill "joined the young Republicans for Ronald Reagan."
The set was that of a humble apartment complete with a make-shift dining room table, constructed from a bathtub and wood plank. A guitar, a box of cornflakes and a bunk bed were the defining features of the set. Audience members remarked that the set was too simple and "didn't have the '60s feel."
The performances by the four actors captured the audience's attention, but the lead actor's unconvincing portrayal of blindness came off more zombie-like and took away from his overall performance.
After starting a bit slow, the action picked up in the second act. The humor sprinkled throughout the play are not as memorable as the lasting impact and sympathy the audience gets from Don's character. "Don't leave me because I'm blind, but don't stay because I'm blind," he says to Jill in the midst of an argument.
This performance is capable of holding your attention, touching your heart, and producing a few laughs.
Indie folk project Whetherman begins a Kickstarter fundraising project Feb. 10, with a goal of $13,500 to send the trio on its first European tour.
Founded by Nicholas Williams in 2007, Whetherman has independently released five full-length studio albums and embarked on three nationwide tours. The grassroots project has recently been placed on Pandora Radio and featured in Relix Magazine as an "Artist on the Rise."
"Songs and Whispers," an artist development network based in Bremen Germany, has already booked the tour and recently invited Whetherman to join the 25-day May/June circuit of shows between Germany and Denmark. The shows are all booked and ready, and the band just needs to get across the pond.
Funds raised will go toward travel and living expenses for the band, in addition to new merchandise for the tour. Any funds raised above the goal will go toward funding Whetherman's sixth record, "Seeds for Harvest," scheduled for release in winter 2014.
Incentives and goodies for donating funds range from digital downloads of the band's latest songs and albums to artwork, jewelry and merchandise from the band to an intimate show at your house during their fall 2014 tour and two-year VIP show treatment. More
The posh, velvet seats and ribbed halls of the Florida Theatre might not have seemed like the ideal setting for stoner-rock quintet Queens of the Stone Age Feb. 3. Tufts of beard with residue of cheap ale hung plentifully over tattooed throats and secondhand shirts as fans crowded into carpeted aisles, anticipation and unextinguished tobacco palpable in the air.
When a 60-second countdown led into the simmering, adrenaline-drenched riff of "You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, But I Feel Like a Millionaire," it was clear the once-assigned seats would serve no further purpose.
The top balcony stood and gathered at the rails. Hands and fists and drinks raised into the air. Queens of the Stone Age had a rock and roll show on their hands.
And that's just where they wanted it. There's no smoke and mirrors to the band's stage presence — it's hard-hitting drums, overdriven guitars and plain, old-fashioned style. They used stop-and-go rhythms often to keep listeners on their toes, waiting for applause to start before pummeling the audience with an additional few measures.
The theater screen behind the band showed images that might not surprise you — but ones you could never really predict — from stoner rock, including a crow pecking the gizzards out of a bandaged man and bare-breasted ladies with exploding planets for faces. The theatrics helped set the tone, but most of the audience's focus fell on singer Josh Homme's tequila-lubed dance grooves and loose guitar playing; both only got groovier and looser as the over two-hour set wore on.
Much of Homme's charm seems to come from being one with the crowd. He's accessible. He takes drags from his cigarette and croons a verse on the exhale. When he drops his guitar pick, he just squats down and picks it up. He has a one-sided chat with an audience member about penis length between songs, outstretching his arm as means of reference.

New Yorkers make great pizza and dreadful tourists. They claim their city as the center of the universe, and won't let anybody forget it. But for one night on Feb. 1 at the Times-Union Performing Arts Center, we were the tourists, given a glimpse into the world of Broadway, a world that indeed has influenced our universe of entertainment.
"Broadway Rox," an ensemble of six talented singers and a backing band of authentic New York musicians brought Big Apple charm to the River City, promising to take the audience on a musical journey through 50 years of Broadway.
Half a century of ubiquitous, influential music is an ambitious journey, and "Broadway Rox" wasted no time getting into the thick of it. The show opened up with a medley of hits, ranging from rocker Jason Wooten's "Jesus Christ Superstar," to Ashley Loren's energetic rendition from "Footloose," to Green Day's "21 Guns."
The performers encouraged the audience to sing along, and sometimes they did. On slower songs, like the haunting group a cappella of the Beatles' "Because," the audience stayed silent while the singers exercised their impressive range.
During his rendition of Jersey Boys' "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You," the charming Darren Ritchie serenaded one lucky lady in the audience — concluding with a quick apology to the gentleman she was with.
"Broadway Rox" got the audience fired up with the energetic, slightly campy "Time Warp" from "Rocky Horror Picture Show." From the first few notes, the performers were able to get much of the crowd — ranging from older couples to children — grooving and pelvic thrusting along to the signature dance from the Broadway hit.
The performance was moved to the more intimate Terry Theater at the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts. With a capacity of 600, the theater was packed, but no one seemed to mind.
While the first half of the show mostly kept the very tight and professional backing band in the periphery, the … More
The blue men of Blue Man Group never talk, so of course, they must have handlers.
Before opening night Jan. 21, those handlers picked me randomly in the audience and sized me up. They were seeing whether I had what it took to become a human paintbrush.
As it turned out, one of those handlers doesn't like reporters. After she heard I was the Arts & Entertainment Editor at Folio Weekly, I was not surprisingly almost out. But the other guy (Aaron) liked either me or chaos — or both. Fortunately, I met their other criteria: skinny, geeky, lover of the arts, not claustrophobic and seriously in need of a haircut. So, I was the man for the job.
Then, that woman who really hates reporters swore me to secrecy on BMG's methods at the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts' Moran Theater. Maybe, I was getting the theater version of good cop, bad cop.
Backstage, I saw things that I may never speak of again.
The audience saw the rest. Near the end of a wild performance featuring Twinkies, lots of paint, plumbing, lots of percussion and several stunts, a blue man ventured into the crowd and found me. I hugged him, thinking this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He didn't hug me back.
On stage, they put me in a jumpsuit and a helmet, setting me up for the human paintbrush stunt they teased.
Throughout the Artist Series show — the first of eight shows through Jan. 26 — Blue Man Group amazed. They caught "paint balls" and candy in their mouths, taught "Rock Concert" movements to the crowd and created paintings and sculpture in ways most of us could never imagine.
They took shots at high-priced art and our cultural fascination with technology while fusing audience interaction, stunts and percussion in a show estimated at about 100 minutes (no intermission). Many of the stunts — including mine — were videotaped, so theatergoers in the balcony could see the action via the big screen.
Though BMG maintains a vow of silence, … More
You might have seen her guest star in big name shows like "Desperate Housewives," "Homeland," "Matlock" or "The Office.' Of course, that doesn't include her extensive career in theater productions including "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," "The Baby Dance" and "Getting and Spending." She has also released several albums of jazz music.
Is there anything Linda Purl can't do?
Her most recent endeavor involves performing in a one-woman play, "The Year of Magical Thinking," directed by Jenny Sullivan. The show is staged for three performances, 8 p.m. Jan. 17 and 2 and 8 p.m. Jan. 18, at Theater Jacksonville in San Marco. The production is part of Theatre Jacksonville's Guerilla Show Series.
The play is about one woman's emotional journey after unexpectedly losing her husband and their only daughter. Purl describes her character as "brutally honest, a formidable talent and intellect, and very exacting of herself in her writing."
Purl faced a common fear when preparing for the play. "This play is so brilliantly written, it is such a truthful piece that my primary fear of doing a one-woman play is that it would be crushingly boring to watch one woman talk on an empty stage. I happily discovered this was unfounded."
While there is quite a bit of grief and mourning in this play, Purl believes that it's much deeper than that. "There's a good deal of humor and I can tell you, from having done the play and spoken to a number of audience members after the show, that for many, the play has deep tides of healing in it."
Purl's preparation for this play did not solely entail memorization and acting lessons. It was an emotional journey that took a lot of strength. It's a story that happened behind-the-scenes. And it is one of the reasons that Purl's character, Joan Didion, really comes to life.
"The journey to the play was life meeting art. My friend and wonderful actress Bonnie Franklin was slated to do the role. However, she … More
Men and women are different. It's the plain-as-day punch line of much relationship-driven comedy.
Lethargic men want to watch sports; fickle women desire undivided attention. Selfish men sweep problems under the rug; badgering women invent problems for the sake of discussing them.
The reason for all the tension? Men are from Mars, women are from Venus. Luckily, there's manual for this sort of thing, and Peter Story, our "friendly resident Martian," is here to bridge extraterrestrial barriers between the sexes. He's traveled from afar to the Times Union Performing Arts Center, Jan. 14-17, to take this tired comedic formula a step further and bring something fresh to the relationship monologue — solutions.
Story takes the audience along on a recent date, a botched evening at the opera house ending in disdain from his wife because of his preoccupation with sports.
It's a familiar scenario for many, and knowing glances between couples and nods of affirmation from Martians and Venusians alike show that Story's quips and jabs are landing close to home.
While Story was mid-joke on Tuesday, Jan. 14, a woman who at first appeared to be part of the show approached the stage and set flowers at his feet. The resulting nonsensical exchange between her and the comedian revealed she was a heckler with too much liquid confidence.
Story appeared ready for anything on opening night for the four-show run, Jan. 14-17 at the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts in Downtown Jacksonville.
One of the biggest laughs of the evening came from a 30-year veteran of marriage in the audience who, when asked what date he and his wife's anniversary falls on, answered "Memorial Day."
Further into the show, Story receives a phone call from his wife, which he takes. He plays it off as a surprise, but the resulting conversation segues seamlessly into his next bit about communication in a … More
An audience arriving for opening night of "Flashdance —The Musical" is bound to expect amazing moves.
Jacksonville native Ryan Carlson, playing a break dancer, and the rest of the cast exceeded all those expectations as the eight-show run kicked off Tuesday night. The Douglas Anderson graduate, possibly energized by his hometown crowd, showed some smooth steps and an aerial move that appeared to unwind in slow motion.
The dancing delivered, but the surprise that got the Moran Theater rocking was that star Jillian Mueller had a show-stopping voice to match her grace.
Mueller's Alex Owens and Corey Mach's Nick Hurley sparred well in a story as old as time, if time began in the '80s. The plot of rich guy woos tough girl probably extends even earlier, but this is the 30th anniversary tour of "Flashdance" — the movie. Fans might feel nostalgic for Jennifer Beals in the 1983 film, but they're unlikely to forget Mueller.
Alex welds by day, flash dances by night and dreams of making it into Pittsburgh's top dance academy. Nick — Alex's boss at the steel mill — chases Alex while also trying to fend off his family's attempts to lay off workers.
The main shortcomings of "Flashdance" are in the story. Supporting characters are given time on stage, but they deserve more plot with which to work. They have the talent but only some of the tools.
Alex's friend Gloria (Ginna Claire Mason) imagines herself as a dancer on MTV, then decides to join a strip club. Her boyfriend Jimmy (David R. Gordon) leaves for New York, chasing his own dream of standup comedy, then comes home before anyone can miss him.
While trying to offer comic relief, his "timing" is on, but his writers have offered him hits as well as misses.
Those writers fare better in scenes involving seasoned dancers Kiki (DeQuina Moore) and Tess (Alison Ewing). Moore nearly steals the show with her vigorous voice and intense acting.
Though not perfect, "Flashdance The … More
The 12th annual Art Basel in Miami Beach was met with more enthusiasm and communal excitement than ever before. Outside of the main event at the convention center was an endless landscape of street art, galleries, pop up shows and other major fairs.
The Moksha family art fair, which takes place at 7th Circuit Studio in little Haiti, is a high point every year. A heady tribute to Terrance McKenna, "Return To The Dreamtime," featured a live reading by Dennis McKenna and a film made by Ken Adams with wildly psychedelic computer graphics and a cosmic, earthy soundtrack woven into video-taped interviews with Terrance dating back to 1989.
Alex Grey presented an original spoken word piece accompanied by didgeridoo, percussion and electronic loops. North Florida's own electronic jam outfit Greenhouse Lounge played the main Moksha event on Saturday night, which included live painting by Alex and Allyson Grey, Mark Henson and others.
Florida Mining Gallery owner and artist Steve Williams succeeded in unifying dozens of ambitious North Florida artists to a produce a multi-building, multi-media art experience called "North of Modern." Partnering with Global Investments and Majestic Properties, Florida Mining Gallery was able to transform six unused and abandoned retail spaces and curate a high quality pop-up art shop.
A theme of re-purposing unused space into social centers seemed to prevail and was perhaps best expressed in Kedgar Volta's installation "Urban Impositions" and Quintron & Miss Pussycat's wild set, which took place in deep in recesses of the abandoned building.
The "North of Modern" presentation and Moksha's Return to the Dreamtime prove that grassroots efforts and teamwork involved in more intimate art fairs are a refreshing oasis in an untamed wilderness of hype and hysteria that often abound in the art world. More
Since October 1964, Jones College Radio has transmitted the increasingly surreal genre known as "beautiful music" throughout the Jacksonville area. This category is diverse to the point of seeming inchoate to those who are not aficionados. "Beautiful music" can be anything from the lush sounds of the Jackie Gleason and Mystic Moods Orchestras to the American classic sounds of the Ray Conniff Singers and 101 Strings. If you listen to Jones College Radio for long enough, you may even hear music from the benighted 21st century -- "Don't Know Why," the slice of heaven from the coquettish chanteuse Norah Jones, was on there one recent evening.
Those who have lived in Jacksonville for decades likely have found themselves scanning past the station on their way to the nihilist nothingness offered by the corporate rock and rap stations. But if you've ever found yourself needing more than the amorphous rebellion clear channel has to offer, true anarchy and rebellion can be found on Jones College Radio, where forgotten groups like the Anita Kerr Singers perform willfully anodyne covers of harder rocking songs … like "Love Will Keep Us Together" by Captain & Tenneille.
Despite the station's willful ignorance -- and thank God for it -- of the twerking and blinging of the modern era, the station has done well in the ratings. The station's website at wktz.jones.edu/ claims that the station is in the top 5 with the 35+ set. Despite this consistent ratings success, however, problems have been looming with the station's finances this fall.
A recent spot on the station, played maybe once an hour or so, laid the case out plainly in Jones College Radio's first attempt at a pledge drive in recent memory. The station is still popular, yet many of those who listen to it do not support it financially. If Jones College Radio does not raise $200k in the next couple of months, the future of beautiful music in Jacksonville -- and most of the rest of the … More

Despite outrage from critics, popes rarely resign
The issue was raised again when Pope John Paul II became increasingly debilitated by Parkinson's disease. Still, John Paul stayed in the job until his death five years ago. One major worry is that if a pope retires, it could split the church into factions, with some Catholics following the former pontiff instead of the current man in the job.
"Like those who sit on America's Supreme Court, the appointment is for life," said Bellitto, author of "101 Questions & Answers on the Pope and the Papacy." "Unlike the justices, papal retirement or resignation is a rare act, indeed."
The most recent claims against Benedict came last Friday, after The Associated Press obtained documents showing that as Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, head of the Vatican's doctrinal orthodoxy office, Benedict had resisted pleas in the 1980s from a California diocese to laicize a priest who had pleaded no contest to lewd conduct for tying up and molesting two boys.
In a 1985 letter, Ratzinger acknowledged the accusations were grave but said laicization required careful study and more time. A U.S.-based attorney for the Vatican, Jeffrey Lena, said the case proceeded swiftly, "not by modern standards, but by those standards at the time."
As the latest crisis over clergy sex abuse erupts across Europe, additional revelations about Benedict's past actions could arise that would undermine his authority and create new pressure for him to step down. However, few analysts believe he would ever quit.
William Portier, an expert on Catholic theology and the church at the University of Dayton, a Marianist school in Ohio, reflects the views of Catholics who see no reason for Benedict to even consider giving up his post.
Portier said the church's understanding of sex abuse moved through phases - from a moral issue that was a matter of confession, to a mental illness that required counseling, to a crime. He said the cases that have become public so far show Benedict acting according to the protocol at the time.
"No one wants to hear that," Portier said. "It's possible in principle for the pope to resign, but I don't see any reason that's serious enough that would make him resign."

Isaiah 17:1 Coming soon?
{snippet from newsletter}
While Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas puts on a show of playing nice with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the sake of the Obama Administration,
the Palestinian ambassador to Lebanon this month assured the Arab world that the current negotiations are just part of a larger plan to delegitimize Israel.
The Palestinian daily newspaper Al-Hayat Al-Jadida reported that on September 9, Ambassador Abdullah Abdullah insisted that "the Palestinian-Israeli negotiations…are not a goal, but rather another stage in the Palestinian struggle… to isolate Israel, to tighten the noose on it, to threaten its legitimacy, and to present it as a rebellious, racist state."
Certainly, I do not believe that Hamas desires in any way to make peace with Israel. I have always believed that the goal of the Islamic world has always been to get back as much land as possible through peace negotiations before mounting a major attack against Israel. One has to wonder if Hamas and other terrorist groups such as Hezbollah are finally getting on the same page as the Palestinians in their quest to regain lost territory? There is no doubt that with Hamas cooperating with the US in peace talks this could ultimately place Israel in a no-win situation where they are forced to negotiate with terrorist organizations. A refusal to participate in peace talks which could include Hamas would bring world condemnation followed by sanctions and further isolation.
Israel Today
The Washington Institute for Near East Policy asserted that Israel was preparing for a multi-front war that could result in the occupation of most or all of the Gaza Strip. The report, by former Defense Department official Jeffrey White, said Israel's military would seek to improve its performance over that of the war against Hamas in 2009.
"The IDF [Israel Defense Forces] would be occupying some, perhaps substantial, parts of Lebanon and potentially all of Gaza," the report, titled "If War Comes: Israel vs. Hizbullah and its Allies," said.
The report envisioned Israel facing a coalition of such Iranian proxies as Hamas and Hizbullah as well as Syria. White said the war could erupt between Israel and Hizbullah but could soon include Hamas, estimated to have 5,000 missiles and rockets.
"At the same time, no one should be surprised if a new war in the north included a Gaza excursion," the report, released on Sept. 17, said. "Hamas could decide to enter the conflict in serious fashion, employing heavy rocket fire and long-range weapons. Alternatively, Israel could decide to finish the job begun with Operation Cast Lead in 2008–2009."
"Hamas — assuming it became involved directly — would lose its military power in Gaza and at least some of its political power," the report said.
he report said Israel's military strategy would employ massive air and naval power to destroy Hizbullah's missile and rocket network. White said Israel was expected to seek to deter Syria from joining the war.
World Tribune
This is likely the scenario that will play out in the coming future. The Bible says in Isaiah 17:1, speaking of the future of Syria regarding "the burden of Damascus, " Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap." This prophecy has yet to be fulfilled and I believe is still future. Some have declared they believe it will be a war that will ultimately serve as a catalyst that will bring peace. Personally, I believe peace will come before war but I certainly would not rule out this scenario playing out in the near future.
Whether this prophecy will play out during the Battle of Gog and Magog or some other separate war only the Lord knows for sure.
But the prophetic winds seem to be blowing towards a sooner than later epic Middle East battle.

ZOHRA SEHGAL x FAIZ AHMED FAIZ
In this short video, actress Zohra Sehgal recites one of my favourite poems by Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Mujse pehli si muhabbat mere mehboob na maang, (Do Not Ask Me, My Love, For That Love Again).
Teri surat se hai aalam mein bahaaron ko sabaat
Teri aankho'n ke siwa duniya me'n rakha kya he?
From your beauty poured into the world an eternal spring
What exists in this world apart from your eyes?
You can also listen to the much older version sung by Noor Jehan here.
The rich Urdu opens up such deep crevasses of emotion, and there are many similarities between Sufism and Faiz's expressions of love.
Its a shame (for those of you unable to read/understand Urdu) that so much depth is lost in the translations of his poems.

Cannot pin two firefox shortcuts to the taskbar - win7 home
Using Firefox 7.0 now after the latest upgrade and this all worked in version 6 but now with version 7 I cannot pin both of my shortcuts for my wife and I to the taskbar at the same time. Each shortcut is launching FF with different profiles. But windows seems to think they are the same program which they are of course but with different arguments.
I did this in FF6 but can't now. If I pin one of them, they both show on the right click as "unpin from taskbar". Same for the start menu. And if I try dragging the unpinned shortcut to the taskbar, I get the icon indicating I can't do it. I've even tried making copies of the icon in the roaming folder but only one shows up.
There was a hint to pin any other program to the taskbar then go into properties and change the target string and name to turn it into my shortcut, but the minute you save the properties that 2nd new shortcut disappears, I guess the OS sees the fault and removes the duplicity.
It's driving me crazy. I did make a shortcut running cmd /C firefox.... etc and this works but the cmd window stays till I exit. A minor flaw but none the same.

|02 Oct 2011
The problem is not solved so much as addressed. After much research / attempts etc, I backloaded the last version 6.0x version and this works fine. I'm now assuming its version 7.
However I will not let this sit, as I had issues moving from version 5 to 6. Now 6 to 7. So possibly another upgrade attempt is in my future. Wish me good luck.

Dr. Camille DeClementi '90 Extends 52 Weeks of Giving
Like most that come through veterinary school, Dr. Camille DeClementi '90 accrued a lot of college debt between her undergraduate and graduate studies. In December 2011, she made her last loan payment and found herself with a bit of extra money each month. She felt the money's best use would be in charitable donations, so she made them every week for the entirety of 2012.
Each week, DeClementi donated 50 dollars to a new charity and posted the charity's name to her Facebook account with some of its history and a rating from Charity Navigator in the hopes that some of her family and friends might follow suit.
Outside of her work as a veterinarian, DeClementi volunteers with the ASPCA and has always made sporadic donations to causes in which she believes. With her amped up efforts in 2012, DeClementi was able to support a number of organizations close to her heart, while discovering new causes through online research.
"As a college student, I had scholarships at Lebanon Valley, so my college was mostly paid for," DeClementi said. "I couldn't have gone to a school like LVC without it. I recognized that somebody else paid money to help someone like me. It all made me want to give back when I was able."
The charities supported during her year of giving included the Union of Concerned Scientists, The Nature Conservancy, the ARCS Foundation (Advancing Science in America), Heifer International, and of course, the ASPCA. To check each charity's legitimacy, DeClementi uses Charity Navigator – a nonprofit company that researches how much of a company's intake is used on the programs it advertises. Because of its nonprofit status, DeClementi gave to Charity Navigator, too.
"I've given to my local library, fire department, anything close to me emotionally," she said. "I'd read a magazine and find charities that way. Anywhere you are, if you're paying attention, you're going to pick up information on charities that you can help."
Additionally, DeClementi has donated back to LVC since 1991 and is committed to fund an annual scholarship of $10,000 paid over four years.
In 2013, DeClementi has vowed to continue to support the charities with which she has most deeply connected. Among them is one out of the University of Pennsylvania – the Penn Vet Working Dog Center. After earning her doctorate in veterinary medicine from Penn, DeClementi has remained close to the school. The center "serves as a national research and development center for detection dogs," according to its website.
"One of the things we've found is that a lot of our working dogs have come from other countries," DeClementi said. "Obviously, we're not getting the best of the best because they keep them for themselves. This center is researching and teaching dogs to do all kinds of things from emergency response to bomb and drug sniffing dogs to working with people that have seizures."
Her passions continue to drive DeClementi to give, and it is a tradition that she will carry on for the rest of her life. "It was important to find ways to donate my money, and I thought the best way to do that was to explore different opportunities. My experiences last year were a really nice way for me to learn about new places to give."

The couple who ran the hostel were really friendly and helpful. The hostel was more like their home so it felt a little like we were renting a room rather than staying in a hostel. We were there for four days and our towels were not changed and the room was never cleaned or the toilet bin emptied. This is standard service in all the hostels I have stayed in so it was disappointing that it did not occur here. Overall, the hostel was nice, the couple were friendly but I wouldn't stay here again.

Bulletproof Stockings
Last night I had the awesome privilege of playing guitar with the super cool post-punk alt-country Hasidic girl group Bulletproof Stockings. You should definitely check them out online, but to be honest, as with any rock group (I think), the recordings don't do justice to seeing them live.
Bulletproof Stockings is made up of singer/songwriter Perl Wolfe, drummer Daliah Shusterman, and an assortment of other frum female musicians depending on the gig. They're new, but they're killer. Perl is a powerhouse frontwoman with a voice that takes no prisoners. Daliah is a passionate drummer with the chops to match. It was great to round out the trio last night and put on a high-energy show for the women of Crown Heights.
Alan and I have been in Crown Heights for just over a year, and it's been incredible to see what's under the surface in this community. There's talent all over, from men and women alike. You know that in any neighborhood there's going to be more than meets the eye, but living here - now - has been a ridiculously rewarding experience. More to come, I'm sure.

Use Your Canon or Nikon SLR Lenses on the iPhone 4
Use Your Canon or Nikon SLR Lenses on the iPhone 4
Have you always wanted to use your pro-grade Canon or Nikon lenses on your beloved iPhone 4? There's now a mount that allows just that. It's called the iPhone SLR Mount and can be found at Photojojo. More specifically, there are two mount adapters available - one for the Canon EF-mount and one for the Nikon F-mount. In order to adjust aperture, the lens needs to have an aperture ring. In other words, newer digital lenses are out of luck.
Furthermore, there are two loopholes on each end of the case; so with a strap, you can hang it around your neck just like a DSLR.
The contraption can be had for US$249.

India won the toss and decided to bowl first in their opening game of the Asia Cup against Bangladesh at Khan Shaheb Osman Ali Stadium in Fatullah today.
This is a day/night match, which will start at 2:00 p.m. local time, 1:30 India time. Follow the Ind vs Ban live scores here.
Weather forecasts suggest a sunny day with no rains expected. Fans can catch the live broadcast of the match on Star Sports, Neo Prime (India), Channel 9 (Bangladesh), PTV Sports (Pakistan) and MTV Sports (Sri Lanka).
Star Sports will also be live streaming the match live at its official website.
Watch the live streaming online here.
This is a crucial start for the Indian team that has performed below expectations for their overseas tour in South Africa and New Zealand. As for the hosts, the team isn't in shape either.
The squads are:
Bangladesh team: Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Nasir Hossain, Naeem Islam,Shamsur Rahman, Anamul Haque, Ziaur Rahman, Sohag Gazi, Abdur Razzak, Rubel Hossain and Mashrafe Mortaza.
India team: V Kohli, AT Rayudu, AM Rahane, KD Karthik, RA Jadeja, S Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Ashwin, B Kumar, Mohammed Shami and Aaron.
Indians have championed the tournament for record five times, but after 0-2 loss in ODIs to South Africa recently, the pressure will be huge on Indian captain Virat Kohli, who replaces skipper MS Dhoni to lead the team.
The four successive defeats in recent ODIs should create some ripples in the Indian team. Adding to the woes, India will be missing their captain Dhoni and Suresh Raina for the match.
What may work for India is the low side of the Bangladesh team that will miss opener Tamim Iqbal due to a neck strain and Shakib-Al-Hasan, who has been banned for two matches for inappropriate gestures.
Hosts also have more trouble lined up as captain Mushfiqur Rahim is recovering from an injured finger, while pacer Mashrafe Mortaza is dealing with a swollen knee. To add to the controversies, Skipper Musfiqur had fallout with selectors for choosing players without his consult.
India with its past good record against Bangladesh seems to be on the plus side, but their recent losses may be a warning sign. For the hosts, it's quite a test of their entire lineup and how they perform under pressure.
The highlights will be uploaded here after the game is over.

John Gillispie, Executive Director, MOREnet, Graduates from Leadership Missouri
Local Business Leader Graduates from Leadership Missouri
JEFFERSON CITY (October 13, 2011) – John Gillispie, Executive Director, MOREnet, University of Missouri, recently graduated from the Leadership Missouri program sponsored by the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Nineteen qualified candidates completed the 2011 Leadership Missouri program.
Leadership Missouri was founded in 1990 to identify current and emerging leaders throughout Missouri, enhance their leadership skills and deepen their knowledge of the challenges and opportunities facing our state. A program of the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Leadership Missouri was founded on the belief that the community, just as any business or organization, requires strong leadership to grow and improve. Governor Jay Nixon serves as the Honorary Chair of the Leadership Missouri program.
The seven month program began in April with a trip to our state's capitol in Jefferson City. Consecutive sessions were held each month in Kansas City, St. Louis, Springfield, Sedalia, and Rolla/Ft. Leonard Wood. The program ended with graduation ceremonies held at Tan-Tar-A in Lake Ozark.
The Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry, founded in 1923, is the largest statewide business organization in Missouri, representing almost 3,000 members. Its main purpose is to preserve a positive business climate for the state of Missouri. The Chamber is actively engaged in public affairs issues affecting business.

The story should be the Texas Aggies (3-0) defeating the Rice Owls (0-2) by a 38-10 score. It should be about the thrilling play of A&M quarterback Kenny Hill.

Back in 2010, when the wheels of realignment began to slowly grind college football's conference structure into the made-for-TV, geography-agnostic menu of fabricated rivalries, rumors abounded that the University of Texas would get the ball rolling by joining forces with the Big Ten. Largely a Mid ... More >>
The good news: Aggies fans will get to watch A&M football on Comcast this upcoming fall. The bad news: CSN Houston is still ONLY on Comcast.

The Rice football team that all Rice fans know and loathe showed up at Rice Stadium on Saturday night. In years past this would have meant a Rice lost.

So the Rice Owls went up to Kyle Field and took on the Texas Aggies on Saturday. And of course it didn't go too well, with the Owls losing 52-31 before 86,686 Aggies.

It's not going to be an easy start of the season for the Rice Owls, traveling to College Station and taking on Johnny Football and the Aggies.

The closest Rick Perry ever got to playing football at Texas A&M was being a cheerleader -- sorry, a "yell leader," as the Aggies call them, because it's so much manlier.
