Thanks to the owner!

► Mercedes Future Truck 2025 (Autonomous Driving Demo)
The Mercedes-Benz Future Truck 2025 constitutes a revolution in
efficiency, safety and networking, a revolution for road traffic and its
infrastructure, for professional driving and for the road transport sector.
This is not a new truck, but rather the key element in the interconnected
transport system of the future. It is being developed as part of the
"Shaping Future Transportation" initiative by Daimler Trucks to conserve
resources and reduce emissions of all kinds. Other aims are to ensure the
highest possible level of traffic safety and to Boost networking with intelligent data
management considerably for tailor-made vehicle and service solutions.
The prototype demonstrated the exciting capabilities of the
Future Truck 2025 back in the summer at speeds of up to 80 km/h in
realistic traffic situations on a section of the A14 motorway in Magdeburg,
Germany. Now the thrilling exterior and interior of that same vehicle are
being revealed.
Autonomous driving:
One of the most interesting questions on the subject of autonomous driving
is the time horizon envisaged for its realisation. In purely technical
terms, turning it into reality on the roads is already feasible within
around five years. In terms of passenger car development cycles, a possible
start is envisaged in 2020. Owing to the more complex factors for heavy
commercial vehicles, the time horizon for such vehicles will, however, be
rather longer – realistically implementation is possible within ten
years, also in view of the legal considerations that still remain to be
The introduction of autonomous driving will not happen digitally from one
day to the next, as development is progressing in a gradual manner:
evolutionary stages are necessary to revolutionise goods haulage on the
roads. In the coming years, new and improved assistance systems will
continue to pave the clearly set-out way to autonomous driving.

A patriotic duty
Ihab Shaarawy
Published in
The Egyptian Gazette
on 04 - 09 - 2012
A solo flight round the world may be a dream for many people. Perhaps some of them are looking for danger or pleasure, while others want to be famous and others still are simply inquisitive. But for 40-year-old commercial pilot James Berisha from Kosovo, it is a patriotic duty.
Berisha set off nearly four years ago in his single-engine plane from
El Paso
, Texas to rally support for the, at the time, newly independent Kosovo, which officially became an independent country in February 2008.
Berisha, who visited
last week, has already been to 97 countries, including the whole continent of Africa, as he forges ahead with his mission.
"I would like to thank those countries who have already recognised us, while I will tell the others how important it is for Kosovo to be recognised worldwide," said Berisha, in answering a question about the nature of his mission.
Kosovo's predominantly ethnic Albanian leadership declared independence from
in February 2008, with strong backing from the
United States
and major EU nations.
But the
government, strongly supported by
, insists that Kosovo is still legally bound by the Security Council resolution, and the UN – at Moscow's insistence – still retains overall authority in Kosovo.
Now, according to Kosovo's Prime Minister Hashim Thaci, Kosovo is a state recognised by nearly half of the UN's 193 members and its territorial integrity "will never be questioned".
However, the Islamic Arab countries of North Africa have yet to recognise Kosovo, something that still astonishes Berisha.
"I really don't know the reason for this. Maybe they think that Tito is still alive or even that Yugoslavia still exists.
"But I think today, with the changes in this region, things will change and many Islamic countries are going to recognise us soon," he added.
Berisha also said that he carried a formal letter to the
Foreign Minister Kamel Amr, asking him to recognise his country, as
is one of the countries that has yet to recognise the independence of this new state, most of whose citizens are Muslim.
"During my tour, I have been dealing with both public and formal diplomacy, but public diplomacy is far easier, because formal diplomacy is very slow," he commented, stressing that the all people in the countries he has visited are very positive and supportive, while it's been a different story with some governments.
But his difficulties are not limited to convincing people or governments, as he has also to convince his Cessna 172 to keep on flying with him.
This self-financing campaigner bought his kite at his own expense. However, the 1967 model has become cantankerous in its old age, misbehaving on every landing. Berisha's most recent hair-raising episode happened in the
, where he crashed in the desert. Amazingly, he has lived to tell the tale.
On his plane, he has painted the flag of his country and written, 'Please recognise the independence of Kosovo'.
Every crash landing diminishes Berisha's hopes of donating his 'metal bird' to a museum in his country at the end of his tour.
For this self-financing campaigner, who has been without work and therefore without a salary for the past four years, the high cost of fuel and parking in some countries, including
, has been another big hurdle.
When you meet this enthusiastic, man of resolve, who abandoned a good job and comfortable life in the US for this tour, to tell the world about his country, you cannot help but admire him.
Berisha insists on telling everyone about his country and the vital need for it to have relations with every other country.
Thousands of his countrymen, many of them are his own relatives, died in the Balkan wars in the 1990s.

Singer is a highly regarded and well-respected leader in the apparel and footwear industry. She joins Spanx from Nike, where she held various senior leadership roles including Corporate Vice President of Global Apparel and Corporate Vice President of Global Footwear. Prior to that, Singer served as the Vice President and General Manager of Reebok's women's business and played key marketing and global communications roles for Chanel, Calvin Klein, and Prada. Singer also previously served as the Beauty and Fitness editor for YM Magazine.
"Spanx is first and foremost an innovator and leader," said Sara Blakely.

Jaguars camp preview
Updated: July 20, 2006, 8:58 AM ETBy Jeremy Green | Scouts Inc.
Three Burning Questions
Will someone step up and assume the No. 1 receiver role?
There is hope from a lot of Jacksonville fans that someone will step up, but I just don't see that guy on the roster right now. Ernest Wilford is a bigger, slower receiver who really would benefit from having a true No. 1 opposite of him. Reggie Williams was selected in the first round of the 2004 draft to be the guy, but he is way too inconsistent. Matt Jones has excellent athletic skills but is still extremely raw in terms of knowing all the nuisances that go into being a go-to receiver. The team re-signed veteran Troy Edwards, but he is best suited as a No. 3. The bottom line is the Jaguars do not have a true No. 1 receiver. They have a bunch of No. 3s and No. 4s.

Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course has wrapped up a major sponsorship deal that puts the Diamond Cellar among the auto-racing facility's three largest corporate partners.
The Columbus-based jeweler has signed on as the title sponsor for Grand-AM Road Racing weekend at Mid-Ohio for the next two years. It also is the official jeweler for the Mid-Ohio race course and driving school in Lexington.
Terms of the agreement were not disclosed, but Mid-Ohio spokesman Jesse Ghiorzi told me the Diamond Cellar joins Honda and Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co. as the track's largest corporate partners.
Honda is a long-time sponsor of events at Mid-Ohio, while Nationwide is sponsoring the first NASCAR race, the Nationwide Children's Hospital 200, at Mid-Ohio in August.
Ghiorzi said Mid-Ohio connected with the Diamond Cellar on an unofficial basis last year when it brought an Indy car to a promotional event at one of the jeweler's locations. The Diamond Cellar also made a Rolex watch presentation to winning driver Scott Dixon at last year's Honda Indy 200 at the track.
The Diamond Cellar Classic weekend will be June 14-16. It will feature the Rolex Sports Car Series, the top circuit in Grand-Am Road Racing, as well as race events sponsored by Continental Tire, Playboy, Mazda and Cooper Tires.

Police praise car crash rescuers
Passers-by improvised to save the life of a driver whose car burst into flames after crashing on the Northern Hwy.BARBARA SUNGAILA June 19, 2014 3:10am

Police have praised the life-saving efforts of passing motorists who were first on the scene when a car left the Northern Hwy at Lady's Pass on Thursday.
Leading Senior Constable Darren Scherger of Goornong police said they managed to extinguish a fire inside the car.
''Bottles of water, everything they had available, onlookers used to put the fire out, which is why (the driver's) still alive,'' he said.
A Wagga Wagga man, 38, was travelling south when his grey Volkswagen left the road about 4.15pm and hit a tree.
He was the sole occupant of the vehicle and remained trapped for about an hour while SES volunteers worked to free him.
He was then flown to The Alfred hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening chest and leg injuries.
He has been placed in an induced coma and remains in a critical, but stable condition.
Leading Sen. Constable Scherger said the cause of the accident was under investigation, but it was likely to be fatigue.
''There were no skid marks,'' he said.
''And no indication of excessive speed.''
It was the second accident on this stretch of the Northern Hwy in two weeks.
A Moama man, 40, was killed and a Echuca man, 53, was seriously injured when their car left the Northern Hwy near Gibb Rd and crashed into a tree after either hitting or swerving to avoid a kangaroo on May 29.
Thursday's accident was attended by police from Axedale, Goornong and Heathcote; Mt Camel and Heathcote fire brigades; Heathcote SES and Heathcote paramedics.

In Part I of this article (XML-J, Vol. 4, issue 6), we introduced the enterprise information integration (EII) problem and explained how the XML query language XQuery and related technologies - specifically XML, XML Schema, and Web services - are central to enabling this age-old problem to be successfully addressed at last.
We provided a technical overview of the XQuery language and presented a simple "single view of Customer" example to illustrate XQuery's role in the EII domain. The example was based on an electronics retailer that wanted to share customer information across three portals - portals for customer self-service, credit approval, and product service. The information to be integrated resided in a variety of back-end information sources, including two relational database management systems, an SAP system, and a Web service.
In this article, our XQuery/EII saga continues. In this installment, we look at how EII relates to two other technologies designed for integration tasks, namely enterprise application integration (EAI) and extract-transform-load (ETL) tools. We also take a brief look at BEA Liquid Data for WebLogic, an XQuery-based EII offering, and discuss how XQuery and Liquid Data were put to use recently in a telecommunications-related customer project.
What About EAI?
Given the industry buzz around EAI today, a natural question about EII is "so why bother?" That is, why isn't a modern EAI solution alone - for example, a workflow engine with XML-based data transformation capabilities - sufficient to solve the EII problem? The answer is, in principle, that EAI is in fact sufficient to solve the EII problem. A developer could always choose to hand-build a set of workflows, writing one workflow per application-level "query" to deliver the desired information back to the calling applications. In the example from Part I of this article, three hand-tailored workflows could instead be written to provide information retrieval capabilities comparable to our XQuery-based solution. But is that the best approach, in terms of development time and maintenance cost?
The basic question here is when to use a declarative query language (XQuery in the case of modern EII) versus constructing code in a procedural language (a workflow language in the case of EAI). The lessons from the relational database revolution are clear: When applicable, a declarative approach offers significant advantages. Instead of hand-constructing a "query plan" (EAI workflow) to extract the needed data from each of the data sources in some manually predefined order, the EII approach allows a single, smaller, and simpler declarative query to be written.
The resulting benefits should be obvious. First, the user does not need to build each query plan by hand, which could involve a considerable effort. Instead, the user specifies (when defining the core view) what data sources are relevant and what logical conditions relate and characterize the data to be retrieved. Second, queries can be optimized automatically by the EII middleware, resulting in an optimal query execution plan (order of accessing the sources, queries or methods to extract the data, etc.) for each different query. For example, using EAI, one central workflow could be written to retrieve all of the customer information in Part I's example, and then other workflows could be written to first call this workflow and then further filter the results. However, in the EII approach, the query processor will (for each query) prune out irrelevant data sources as well as push SQL selection conditions (such as only retrieving "Open" support cases in Listing 2 of Part I) down to any RDBMS data sources. Third, as the data sources change over time in terms of their schemas, statistics, or performance, the EII user will not be forced to rewrite all of his or her queries. Simply maintaining each base view query and re-optimizing the other queries will adapt their query execution plans to the new situation. In contrast, in the case of EAI, many workflows would have to be rewritten to handle most such changes.
There really isn't an either/or choice to be made between EAI and EII at all. Both technologies have critical roles to play in an overall enterprise integration solution. These technologies are complementary: EII provides ease of data integration, while EAI provides ease of process integration. EII is appropriate for composing integrated views and queries over enterprise data. EAI is the appropriate technology for creating composite applications that orchestrate the functional capabilities of a set of related but independent applications, Web services, etc. Moreover, EII can be used to handily augment EAI in scenarios where workflows need to access integrated data views. For example, if our electronics retailer wanted its order process to offer free shipping to customers who have ordered more than $1,000 of goods during the year and who have accumulated more than 5,000 reward points, the integrated view of customer from Part I could be used to easily access the relevant information from within the order entry workflow.
What About ETL?
Another technology related to EII is ETL. In fact, ETL tools are designed precisely for the purpose of integrating data from multiple sources. These tools are therefore another category of software that naturally leads to a "why bother with EII?" question - why isn't ETL technology the answer? As you'll see, the answer is again that both technologies have their place in modern IT architectures.
ETL tools are designed for use in moving data from a variety of sources into a data warehouse for offline analysis and reporting purposes. As the name suggests, ETL tools provide facilities for extracting data from a source; transforming that data into a more suitable form for inclusion in the data warehouse, possibly cleansing it in the process; and then loading the transformed data into the warehouse's database. Typical ETL tools are therefore focused on supporting the design and administration of data migration, cleansing, and transformation processes. These are often batch processes that occur on a daily or weekly basis.
Data warehouses and the ETL tools that feed them are invaluable for enabling businesses to aggregate and analyze historical information. For example, our electronics retailer might very well want to keep track of customer data, sales data, and product issue data over a period of years in order to analyze customer behavior by geographic region over time, improve their credit card risk model, and so on. A data warehouse is the appropriate place to retain such data and run large analytical queries against it, and ETL technology is the right technology today for creating, cleaning, and maintaining the data in the warehouse. However, ETL is not the right technology for building applications that need access to current operational data - it doesn't support the declarative creation of views or real-time access to operational data through queries.
For applications that need to integrate current information, Part I of this article showed how XQuery can be used to declaratively specify reusable views that aggregate data from multiple operational stores and how XQuery can be used to write XML queries over such integrated views. We also explained how standard database query processing techniques, including view expansion, predicate pushdown, and distributed query optimization, can be applied to XQuery, making XQuery-based EII an excellent technological fit for such applications.
Clearly, both ETL and EII technologies have important roles to play in today's enterprise. ETL serves to feed data warehouses, while EII is an enabler for applications that need timely access to current, integrated information from a variety of operational enterprise data sources. As with EAI, there are also cases where the two technologies come together. As one example, an ETL tool could be used to help create and maintain a cross-reference table to relate different notions of "customer id" for use in creating XQuery-based EII views across different back-end systems. As another example, an ETL-fed data warehouse could be used to build a portal for analyzing the historical behavior of a company's top customers, with an EII tool used to allow click-through inspection of the customers' purchases in the past 24 hours.
Putting XQuery-Based EII to Work
For the reasons discussed in this article, XQuery-based EII middleware is an emerging product segment that promises to deliver the tools and technology needed in this important space. One commercially available XQuery-based middleware product is BEA Liquid Data for WebLogic. Liquid Data is capable of accessing data from relational database management systems, Web services, packaged applications (through J2EE CA adapters and application views), XML files, XML messages, and, through a custom function mechanism, most any other data source as well. For illustration purposes, the architecture of Liquid Data is depicted in Figure 1. Liquid Data provides default XML views of all of its data sources and provides an XQuery-based graphical view and query editor for use in integrating and enhancing information drawn from one or more data sources. It includes a distributed query processing engine as well as providing advanced features such as support for query result caching and both data-source-level and stored query-level access control.
As a final example of the applicability of XQuery to enterprise information integration problems, we'll describe an actual customer integration exercise where Liquid Data was put to use. In that project, a large telecommunications vendor wanted to create a single view of order information for one of its business divisions. The goal of the project was to make integrated order information available to the division's customers (other businesses) through a Web portal, enabling their customers to log in and check on the status of their orders, as well as making information available to the division's own customer service representatives.
The division had data distributed across multiple systems, including a relational database containing order summary information and two different order management systems. Order details were kept in one or the other of the two order management systems, depending on the type of order. Functionality-wise, a limited view of order details was provided through the customer order status portal that the division built using Liquid Data, whereas customer service representatives were permitted to see all of the order data through their portal. In both cases, it was possible to search for order information by various combinations of purchase order number, date range, and order.
The use of XQuery-based EII technology enabled the customer to complete their portal project in much less time than they had expected it to take with traditional technologies, and their total cost of ownership was also lower due to the reusability of Liquid Data assets and the low cost of maintenance enabled by EII.
In this article, we have explained how XQuery is beginning to transform the integration world, making it possible to finally tackle the enterprise information integration problem where past attempts have failed. In Part I we provided an overview of XQuery and illustrated how it could be used to integrate the disparate information sources of a hypothetical electronics retailer. In Part II we discussed the relationship of EII to EAI and ETL technologies and then briefly presented BEA's XQuery-based EII product and described one of the customer projects in which it was used.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies.

London 2012: Canadian boxer Custio Clayton in action Sunday
Boxing Canada head predicting big tournament for Nova Scotia welterweight.

Share via Email
LONDON—The last time Dartmouth, N.S., boxer Custio Clayton faced Mexico's Oscar Molina, he lost by a point.
And that's left him with a point to prove.
The 24-year-old welterweight will climb into the ring Sunday, the first Canadian boxer in action at these Olympics.
"I'm happy with the draw. I thought I beat him. A lot of other people thought I beat him," said Clayton of that frustrating result against Molina two years ago at the Continental championships. "That was the past. He's going to come up with a new game plan and me and the coaches have a new game. I know what I'm supposed to do."
While Clayton and super-heavyweight Simon Kean, Canada's two male boxers here at these Games, have been overshadowed by Mary Spencer, a medal favourite on the women's side, the two men also received good draws.
Daniel Trepanier, Boxing Canada's high performance director, figures Clayton has a chance to put a run together in the super-competitive 28-man welterweight division, starting with the bout against Molina.
"We know (Molina) very well. We fought him in 2010 and from what I've seen at Brazil during the Olympic qualifier — both of them were in different brackets — I think Custio is better than Oscar Molina right now. We're ready for him. We think Custio will have the edge on the Mexican fighter," said Trepanier.
"It's not an easy fight but it's a fight that we're able to grab. If we look a bit further in the draw, if he wins against the Mexican, he'll go against the fighter from Australia (Cameron Hammond) or Nigeria (Moustapha Abdoulaye Hima). Again it looks really good. After that, it's the top of the top, it's going to get tougher but Custio is ready for anybody. He's able to win against anybody here. It's the toughest weight division here at the Olympics from last to first, there's not a big difference in calibre."
Clayton, a three-time national champ in his 69-kilogram weight class, has two young children and is hoping to turn pro after the Olympics.
Kean will fight on Wednesday. The 6-foot-5, 243-pound power puncher from Trois-Rivieres, Que., has drawn French boxer Tony Yoka in his first bout. That is considered a winnable fight for the 23-year-old.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Jim Prentice aims to go from 'under the bins' to apex of power in Alberta
EDMONTON - Jim Prentice says voting for same-sex marriage was one of the most trying moments of his political career — especially after people set fire to his house.
"The pressure was incredible," said Prentice, recalling his days as a Conservative MP in 2005 when he made it known he would support the controversial bill put forward by the Liberal government.
"(But) there's a duty to balance and protect the rights of everyone."
That humanist rationale, however, didn't cut much ice in his riding of Calgary Centre-North.
There were angry letters to the editor. Staff in his riding office quit. People told him his political career was finished.
One angry Calgarian passed him in a pickup truck, pulled over and threatened to clean his clock on the spot.
Someone set fire to his veranda.
In the church where he was married and his three children were baptized, Prentice and his wife, Karen, arrived one Sunday to learn the sermon was a warning about him.
Nine years later, Prentice, 58, is back in the arena, one of three candidates vying to become the next premier of Alberta as leader of the provincial Progressive Conservatives.
Five decades earlier, his only goal was to play hockey.
Prentice was born on July 20, 1956, in South Porcupine in northern Ontario.
His dad, Eric, was a gold miner and former pro hockey player, a 17-year-old whiz kid winger and the youngest person ever signed by the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Eric was a career minor leaguer, save for five games with Toronto in the bigs in 1943.
As the gold mine dwindled, the family moved in 1969 near a new coal mine in Grande Cache, Alta., and eventually to the mines further south in the Crowsnest Pass.
Through university, for seven summers, young Jim worked in the mines "under the bins."
Coal was dropped by trucks from above into bins and then down onto an underground conveyor belt where Prentice and others — amidst the choking dust, heat, and deafening mechanical din — would pry off the massive rocks that had gotten mixed in with the coal and smash them up.
Hockeywise, Prentice became a top flight winger in his own right, but his promising junior career ended with a devastating knee-on-knee hit.
"I got creamed coming out from behind the net," he said. "That was it."
From then on he focused on university, graduating with a law degree and going to work in Alberta as an entrepreneur and a lawyer dealing mainly with land and property rights.
In the background there was politics. Always politics.
From age 20, he worked for the federal and provincial Conservative parties, taking a page, he said, from his parents' involvement in their community.
Save for one failed bid for elected office provincially in 1986, he stayed in the backrooms as an organizer and bean counter. He had an agreement with Karen, he said, not to get into the all-consuming life of politics until their kids were much older.
When he did run again, in 2002, the federal conservative movement was a mess, fractured between the PCs and the Canadian Alliance.
Prentice urged reunification and in 2002 stepped aside as the PC candidate in Calgary Southwest so that then-Alliance leader Stephen Harper could run unopposed to represent the centre-right.
In 2004, at age 47, he finally grabbed the brass ring, winning the Calgary riding for the newly merged Conservative Party.
In 2006, Harper won a minority government and Prentice was in cabinet. Over the following six-plus years he was given high marks for his work in diverse portfolios — Indian and northern affairs, industry and environment.
He was considered Harper's right-hand man, running the powerful cabinet operations committee, helping pull the levers at the very centre of national power.
Now he will try to become Alberta premier and take over a provincial PC party fractured and demoralized by infighting and flat-lining poll numbers.
To take them back to the top, he will apply the lessons from under the bins.
"I always said I got my education there," he said.
"I learned teamwork, I learned respect for other people. I learned the fact that the smartest guy in the room is often not the guy you think is the smartest guy.
"Everybody's got something to contribute and everybody's got to be part of the solution."

The Belmont Stakes was dealt a serious blow Wednesday when Phillips Racing Partnership's Best Minister was diagnosed with a lung infection and was taken out of consideration for Saturday's classic.Trainer Ken McPeek said Best Minister coughed several times when he returned to the barn after a routine gallop. McPeek heard the horse cough when he was leading Best Minister over to be filmed by TVG. The colt was scoped by Dr. Steve Carr, who detected the lung infection. "We thought something might be wrong," McPeek said. "He left two-thirds of a scoop of feed yesterday. He was killing his feed before we came here. He has been little bit shaky since he arrived here. He normally is 5 a.m. feeder and wasn't finishing up his feed until after 10."Best Minister raced his way into the Belmont picture with a victory in the Sir Barton Stakes on the Preakness Day card at Pimlico. Since he was not nominated to the Visa Triple Crown series, his owners would have had to pay $100,000 to get supplemented to the Belmont.John Phillips, the partnership's manager, had flown to New York Wednesday morning and was stuck in traffic on the Long Island Expressway on his way to Belmont Park when he spoke with McPeek."He's not 100% and if you're not 100% you can't give up that edge," Phillips said while attending the post position draw for the Belmont. "If you're not 100%, you shouldn't be racing, period. You have to take care of the horse. Everything else is secondary."Phillips will remain in New York. "I'm still going to have a great time this weekend." His Wonder Again is entered to run in the Just a Game Breeders' Cup Handicap (gr. IIIT) on the Belmont undercard. He'll also be rooting for Funny Cide. "I'd like to see this horse do it."additional reporting by Evan Hammonds

Learn how to transform a dresser or a sideboard into a bathroom vanity.
By Joanne Palmisano, Salvage SecretsMore in Decorating
Cut out the center of top drawer in order to be able to fit the sink's plumbing. Plan to put the drawer back in so it will be stationary. Secure it in place with wood glue and nails from the inside so the drawer cannot be opened.
For the next drawer down, cut the back off of it and move it forward to shorten the width of the drawer. Nail the back on or use L-brackets to secure it.
Once all drawers are cut for plumbing, paint the dresser. Apply two coats of paint, then seal with shellac.

Mavado and Nicki's latest gets a video. Looks like Nicki got her hair done mid-way through the clip.
From the Dreamchasers 3 mixtape, available now.
Dead on all sites that reported Nicki Minaj filed a restraining order against DJ Khaled.
Well, this video should ultimately destroy any further talk about Miley Cyrus twerking, as Nicki shows her what time it is around the 3:30 minute mark.
Swizz Beatz resurrects the 100 BPM banger for "Hands Up", a star-studded posse cut with Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, 2 Chainz, and Lil Wayne.
Dj Khaled called in yesterday to the T.T Torrez show to talk about his upcoming album, Suffering from Success,, which drops Sept. 24th. He also speaks on his marriage proposal to Nicki Minaj, and claims the whole thing was a joke.
Hit record.
In this interview with Flex, Nicki Minaj responds to DJ Khaled's marriage proposal, saying the whole thing was a publicity stunt. Flex also digs in about Drake's status with Young Money, to which Nicki offers little insight, suggesting that things aren't on the up-and-up between them.
Does anyone want to state the obvious here? Suffering From Success hits Sept. 24th.
B. Rhymes grabs N. Minaj for the video to his remix of "Twerk It".
Is the club world ready to re-embrace Nelly? Drop down and get your eagle on, girl.
We're hearing there's a new Busta Rhymes mixtape on the horizon called The Catastrophic.
Directed by Hannah Lux Davis.
Murder re-wrote once again, for French Montana's all-star posse cut remix of "Freaks".
Or as we like to call it, the Wayne/Nicki sextape. Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded: The Re-Up: The Sequel: The Album: Part Two: The Final Chapter: Remixed, in stores now.
French's sure fire smash from Excuse My French gets a video. This will definitely raise some eyebrows…..
New Birdman/YMCMB posse cut gangbang, as delayed by Funkmaster Flex.
In the great words of Beast, "Oh my stars and garters."
French taps Nicki Minaj (heh) for this flip on Chaka Demus and Pliers' "Murder She Wrote" riddim. Excuse My French due May 21st.
The sparks fly with Nicki Minaj's latest appearance with The Breakfast Club.
