Contemporary Sydney home with seamless indoor/outdoor living
When Tanner Kibble Denton Architects took on the renovation and extension of an existing, heritage house located in Mosman on Sydney's North Shore; they set out to create a spacious and contemporary family home whilst preserving the majestic charm of its original structure.
This project fully explores the relationship between indoor and outdoor. The main living space opens seamlessly to a level lawn and pool, framed with dense landscaping.
Adjacent the internal living space is the loggia, which operates beautifully as an undercover outdoor space. The room includes an outdoor fireplace and can be protected with retractable louvres and cavity sliding flyscreen panels.
The strong dark painted timber form of the upper level floats over the main living space, supported on slim steel flats, and sealed with virtually transparent sheets of frameless glass. Interiors employ stone, timber floors, timber veneer and a muted paint scheme that allows the owners art collection to add to the architecture.

State Street Townhouse in New York by Ben Hansen Architect
State Street Townhouse was designed in 2012 as a typical American family house but in an urban context by Ben Hansen Architect, located in Brooklyn, New York. This stunning four-story contemporary townhouse is comprised of 3,444 square feet (320 square meters) of living space, designed with specific family needs.
In many ways, the historic New York City townhouse is not compatible with a contemporary family's way of life. The first and most important concept was to reinterpret the classic townhouse but customize it to the client's request of having a join family space at the parlor level, where members of the family move fluidly between the kitchen, dining and living rooms; and have a visual and program connection with the rear courtyard; another interpretation of the typical American family house but in an urban context.
The rest of the floor levels were strictly defined by their own program and vertical circulations, allowing the most efficient way of space planning; and having as much natural light and ventilation as possible, especially in the core of the floor plate, which in the majority of historic townhouses are dark and unpleasant spaces.
While the design of the building is unquestionably contemporary, it relates to its classic NYC context as an abstract reinterpretation of the classic Brownstone Townhouse, from the materiality to the alignment of the facade elements. The front facade is pushed in and out to align with the neighboring building and the used of the classic steel and brick but with a strong contemporary language, that it's consistent throughout the entire building, stands out in its immediate context.
The design of the exterior areas of the house were as important as the interiors, as a couple with 3 kids, the client needed to have as much patio area as possible, from playground areas in the ground floor, to more private and serene balconies, to a orchard roof deck, and all these landscape program needed to be harmoniously connected with their correspondent interior spaces.

Six-story luxurious Greenwich Village townhouse in NYC
Built in 1846, this posh, newly refreshed Greenwich Village townhouse at 20 East 10th Street is listed for sale, the home of Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, located in Greenwich Village, New York. At 25 feet wide and six stories tall, the 6,800 square foot single family townhouse with 7 fireplaces is the architectural and historical embodiment of pristine New York luxury living.
Spotted on Douglas Elliman, this stunning townhouse is listed at $22,000,000, from here.
The Parlor Floor introduces itself with a gray Barr flagstone entry, 12 foot ceilings, twin fireplaces, dentil molding, original mantle, and a Juliet balcony (from which one can access the beautifully landscaped Garden). Light gushes through the floor-to-ceiling double-paned mahogany windows in the formal dining room, which is connected to the living room by a gorgeously molded framed entry.
The Garden Floor is outfitted with a Boffi stainless steel and rich walnut eat-in kitchen, bookend marble wall fireplace, Boffi shelving and storage units, with off-kitchen access to the south-facing, split level Garden.
The Guest Floor features three bedrooms, the largest of which has an exquisite en suite marble bath, separate sitting / office area, and Victorian fireplace. The two smaller bedrooms are perfectly appointed as guest or child's bedrooms, and also feature an en suite bath. A generous linen closet is also located herein.
The Master Floor is beautifully proportioned as an elegant retreat, complete with 25′ x 12′ private terrace, an imported stone fireplace, a hand-carved stone ovular tub, antique tiles, separate sinks, shower room, water closet, and windowed walk-in. The master bath also has its own fireplace.
The Family Floor is illuminated by two oversized skylights. 50′ long bookcases, a separate built-in entertainment system, small windowed office with storage closet, and limestone / mosaic half-bath.
The house comes with five-zone HVAC system, state of the art NEST thermostats, Lutron Maestro dimmers with LED displays, a modern water-based fire suppression system, air cleaning and humidification system, seven working fireplaces, and Arnold Chan designed lighting.
Contemporary ranch house evoking a warm rustic feel in California
This Los Angeles, California ranch house was designed by Janette Mallory Interior Design, perched on a hill in Mount Olympus, a neighborhood in the Hollywood Hills. It has incredible views of the Hollywood sign, downtown Los Angeles and the ocean. The classic 1950s ranch was worn and outdated, but Mallory's clients saw past that. It had a wonderful layout, which the clients decided they wanted updated, but left the floor plan the same.
The couple wanted the 4,000 square feet (371 square meters) four bedroom, four bathroom house to be contemporary and rustic. The vision fit with how the house already was — it had all the rustic elements of a classic ranch with a twist of midcentury style. Playing on that, the designer produced a transitional look that incorporated the owner's love of collecting and art. The space itself is furnished with a mix of classic, colonial, rustic and midcentury pieces — a similar stylistic brew that might have been found in many ranchers in the early 1950s.
Although the layout and the indoor–outdoor nature of the home were carefully preserved, many of the tired finishes had to be replaced. The cabinet is a replica of an antique, and it houses the couple's collection of vessels. Throughout the house, furniture and accessories are large and simple, making for a graphic decorative statement. In this cabinet, the designer included natural elements such as corals, shells and ammonites.
The living room is separated from the dining room and kitchen by a pony wall (you can just see the top of the abstract painting that hangs over the sofa peeking above it). Before the remodel, this shot would not have been possible, as the breakfast room was separated from the dining room by a floor-to-ceiling wall.
The dining room table has oversize ladder back chairs on the sides and upholstered chairs at each end. The designer thought too many wooden chairs would make it feel heavy. The upholstered chairs help to soften things up a bit.
The family room is topped by another classic ranch house feature: A wood-paneled ceiling and exposed rafters. They were dirty and in bad shape yet the designer and the owners didn't want to paint them, choosing to sandblast and refinish them instead. The statement ceiling is balanced by a floor crafted from reclaimed walnut.
In another classic midcentury move, the family room contained a wet bar. The owners chose to preserve it, and the designer gave it a new limestone top and accessories to freshen it up. The clients like to entertain a lot, so it made sense to keep it. The designer chose to front it with incredibly comfortable chairs, making bellying up to the bar a relaxing experience. A giant antique hourglass and a vintage hotel sign advertising "dining, coffee and cocktails" decorate one end of the bar; while a new metal-and-wood shelf displays select bottles behind it.
In the master bedroom, the designer started with the bed. She wanted to keep it simple and clean-lined. The designer put a chair on either side of the bed for her current event-loving clients. Each one has a place to sit and enjoy their coffee and newspaper.
The master bedroom already had a corner glass window, designed to embrace a swoon-inducing view. The designer selected this tub because you can select your own color for the exterior. She did not want a stark white tub there.
The elegant tub is positioned perfectly to enjoy the landscape — giving new meaning to the phrase "soak in the view."

Seattle Box Remodel by Board and Vellum
Seattle Box Remodel project is a full house remodel of a 1902 traditional home brought up to date by architecture studio Board and Vellum, located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. Crisp white trim and dark floors along with built-in cabinetry and special details really tie the whole home together. The brightly colored 3,300 square foot, five bedroom, four bathroom home helps contrast the dark Seattle days and works well with the adjacent homes which are also bright colors. Landscaping is a future project.
Seattle "Box" homes are prized for their stately appearance and generous floor plans. What isn't often provided though is an easy way to convert these older homes into homes with generous and open living spaces. This project keeps the formal nature of the 'three in a row' formal rooms and opens the back of the house and the final room to the kitchen. An operable wall of glass helps connect the house to the yard and let light pour into the home. A centrally placed fireplace is viewable from all the main rooms in the house and helps anchor the entire plan. A wide galley kitchen opens towards the back of the house with an island facing the new family room. Careful design of the casework provides a clean and contemporary look while not looking out of place in a 1902 home.
A cozy front porch allows for a spot to watch the birds at the feeder.
The cozy front porch has a built-in ceiling heater to help socializing in the cool evenings.
The house borders a commercial district, so the owners felt they had a little more leeway to do something exuberant. The exterior is now painted in Benjamin Moore's Douglas Fir, with Benjamin Moore's Blushing Red for trim. After seeing the exuberant colors of the house next door, the architect saw this as an opportunity to turn the row into Seattle's own version of San Francisco's Painted Ladies.
A dutch entry door provides the option to have fresh air without dogs or children escaping out!
The Family Room has very tall ceilings so white wainscoting was used to visually lower the height of the room when seated around the new gas fireplace. Clean white display accents provide contrast without too much visual clutter.
The Family Room opens up to the Kitchen and a folding door out to the yard.
The Dining Room offsets the table into the bay windows to allow open circulation between the three main rooms.
A mid-century inspired light and bright colors help create a soothing color palette.
A custom dog crate lives behind this door which slides up on one side and opens on the other.
A custom dog crate lives here below a pantry and open shelves to the right allowing the dogs to look out in both directions.
The kitchen has a folding wall which opens to the small backyard.
The kitchen island serves as a buffer between the open Kitchen and Family Room.
Open shelves keep cookbooks and everyday tableware close at hand.
A custom library ladder works in the Kitchen and also the Living Room.
A recess in the island provides for a handy spot for the dog's water bowl. A tip out cabinet above stores the dog food.
A simple and clean Laundry Room efficiently everything you need in a small footprint.
A small Powder Room is brightened by wallpaper and cleanly detailed walnut sink and mirror.
The Living, Dining, and Family Rooms open into each other and are trimmed by bright white trim for a fresh and dramatic appearance.
The upstairs hallway uses clean white trim to tie everything together.
Home Office uses walnut furniture to contrast with the blue walls.
The entrance to the Master Suite is painted all in white and detailed with crisp white trim.
Two smaller bedrooms were combined to create a generous Master Suite with a dressing area and built-in closets.
A custom magazine rack allows for storage in the Master's Toilet Room.
Custom walnut vanity sits next to a wall of white Thassos marble and a double shower.
In the children's bedroom, two doors were tied together with a built-in dresser and mirror.
Dubbed the Lego Lounge, the basement includes a bar, a media room, laundry, storage and a guest bedroom. The basement was completely renovated with ceilings that were only 6½ feet high. What's more, you originally had to walk through a coat closet to access the basement stairs. The architect excavated the basement another 2½ feet, ending up with 9-foot ceilings and an inviting lair where the couple can entertain friends without disturbing their son when he's sleeping in his bedroom two stories up. Although it can be a hassle lowering a basement floor the way the architect did, he ended up with an extra floor of living space without having to expand the home's shell.
The basement bar uses space that would otherwise be empty square footage. A custom bar aligns with the stair treads and is the same wood and finish as the floors upstairs.
The custom bar uses every square foot to maximize entertaining. In the LEGO room beyond a custom table sits below the work area which can slide out and double the work space.
This bathroom features large scale glass tile in a more traditional subway pattern.
This traditional style bathroom uses White Thassos marble in a subway pattern along with white wainscoting to create a clean and fresh look.
The basement bedroom only has color on one wall to keep the focus on the bright white walls and trim to help brighten the basement space. A large window well helps reduce the stigma of high up basement windows.

Boylan offensive line big difference-maker
By Matt Nestor
Sports Columnist
Ian Kolata, Mike Nora, Carter Cardenas, John Gomulka, Garrett Fischer. These may not be recognizable names to most NIC-10 fans, but these may be the names of the conference MVPs so far.
That is the Boylan offensive line. And what that unit has done thus far has helped pave the way for an offense that is averaging 49 points per game through three games.
"They're growing as they're going," Boylan coach Dan Appino said. "They make mistakes. They are all athletic, and they run fairly well for bigger guys. We're not tall, but we're thick. We're like little refrigerators with feet running around."
More than anything, though, the line has helped stabilize a unit that is trying to overcome heavy losses on the offensive side of the ball. The Titans are playing two new quarterbacks, in addition to new running backs, but they haven't seemed to miss a beat.
The Titans have executed offensively at a high level so far this season. They have also added in no-huddle schemes, which wears on opposing defenses.
"What I'm really happy about is they are blocking until the whistle and, for the most part, they've been pretty good at executing," Appino said.
It has also helped the Titans bring along a young defense that also took massive hits in the offseason. It has helped from keeping the defense on the field too long, while allowing them to take chances when they are on the field, knowing the offense can probably grind out a score. It has also helped the defense grow in practice.
"They're real big guys who like to hit," senior safety Sam James said. "They are nasty guys to go against."

While those of us in the US are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Sony Xperia Z2 (a leak suggests a "special" version is being prepared for Verizon), Sony continues supporting the device with exclusive new applications. The latest is a Live on YouTube app which offers a handy feature not even the official YouTube provides, giving users the ability to broadcast a live streaming event straight from their Xperia device.
Somewhat of a handy tool for bloggers covering live events of some sort, we're not entirely sure how useful this will be for the everyday-man. Still, you can never have too many options and we're sure someone out there wouldn't mind sharing their life with loved ones be it a concert or other event. Just make sure you bring a portable battery charger, this is sure to suck up a considerable amount of battery life over long periods.
Those of you already with an Xperia Z2 in your possession can get started right now but first, you'll need to enable the "Live events" setting in your YouTube settings here. While you can find the Live on YouTube app on Google Play, those that prefer to sideload (perhaps you're running an Xperia Z2 ROM with another device) can find a direct download to the apk here.

Witless Protection Movie Review
Poor dumb backwoods deputy Larry Stalder (Mr. Cable Guy). He longs to be an FBI agent, much to the chagrin of his country-fried friends and Daisy Mae wannabe gal pal Connie's (Jenny McCarthy). While spending a quiet morning at the local coffee house chewing the fat, he sees a big city vixen (Ivana Milicevic) surrounded by several men in black. Mistakenly believing she's the victim of a kidnapping, Larry springs into action. He hijacks the lady, avoids the mystery men, and believes he has saved the day.
Unfortunately, what he doesn't know is that his hostage, an ex-number cruncher named Madeleine, is a witness against a money skimming corporate crook named Grimsley (Peter Stormare) and the government is doing everything it can to protect her. But Larry is suspicious of head Fed Alonzo Mosley (Yaphet Kotto) and when a private security guard (Eric Roberts) shows up with his own agenda, it will take all of our hero's redneck rube resolve to crack the case and bring the bad guys to justice.
With a built-in critique in its title and a lame excuse for a comic in the lead, Witless Protection should once and for all spell the end of Larry the Cable Guy's horrendous run of Hollywood hokum. Clearly the worst of the three films in his offensive oeuvre, this clueless collection of slobbering gags is a series of unfunny one-liners looking for a premise to perch on and die. While he doesn't sway significantly from the persona that won him a NASCAR nation of fans, the sleeveless stumblebum routine no longer holds the same novelty for our star. This leaves the mindless script by director Charles Robert Carner to provide most of the hilarity. The best it can do is offer a cameo by Joe Mantegna as a prissy relative with the most flamboyant swish shtick this side of Savannah.
Carner's turn behind the lens is equally weak. This is a filmmaker who still believes that sped-up foot chase footage ala Benny Hill is the height of satire, or that the sight of our lead dressed in nothing but a well-placed ball cap will be outrageous, not nauseating. Actors like Stormare are forced to use ridiculous and tiresome accents that grow more and more annoying as the plot points fall into place, and the editing is obtrusive and awkward. There is a Family Guy feel to the dialogue, with Larry constantly using any discussion to make his pointless comparative quips ("My hand hasn't been this sore since the first episode of Baywatch."). In fact, there are moments when these offhand comments actually bring the entire film to a grinding halt.
With Roberts and Kotto looking uncomfortable, Milicevic barely likable, McCarthy channeling another movie all together, and an ending that straddles cliché and contrivance, Witless Protection is quite possibly the worst film of 2008 -- and when you consider we've already seen In The Name of the King, Meet the Spartans, and Fool's Gold, that's saying a lot. On stage, reduced to a homunculus hillbilly stereotype, Larry the Cable Guy is barely tolerable. For the crimes he commits against cinema in this movie, he shouldn't get slammed. He should get life.
Wait, who will protect us?

Legal Beagle: Suicide Reporting; or, The…, in reply to
Check! That looks what what both the Act and the guide says.
The problem with the guidance is that it doesn't even look like you need permission.
I meant to say, I think:
The problem is that that guidance makes it look like you can't even ask for permission until after the decision is made (ie it looks like the pre-decision ban is total).
Legal Beagle: Suicide Reporting; or, The…, in reply to
Pretty clear that you need permission to go further (although I can't tell if even that is possible). Afterwards you can say it was a suicide without the coroner's permission. That's what I'm reading. You appear to need permission to say more than the very basic facts, though.
After a Coroner has declared a death a suicide, you can publicly state it was a suicide.
You can get permission to state more, such as the means used.
Legal Beagle: Suicide Reporting; or, The…, in reply to
But the Act trumps the guidance, doesn't it? Newspapers have surely hit this hundreds of times, got their lawyers to look at the law, and then realized that it's clear enough in the Act itself that the highly counter-intuitive idea that coroners have a perpetual right to deny freedom of reporting of any suicide is counter-intuitive because it's false.
I am confident you need permission to report the particulars of a self-inflicted death before the Coroner has made a decision.
The problem with the guidance is that it doesn't even look like you can get permission.
The problem with the law is that you do need permission.
Legal Beagle: Suicide Reporting; or, The…, in reply to
But reading the Act itself, I would think that chapter is contradicting the Act somewhat.
Yep. That was what I was trying to get at. You read the guidance, and it doesn't even look like you can get permission until after the finding has been made.
Speaker: Sponsored post: Speed and Safety,
And if you hit another car that's moving, the impact speed may be doubled meaning the outcome will be twice as bad.
Not four times as bad? Or some other even higher number? I'd have thought driving/crashing at 100km/h was much more dangerous than driving/crashing at 50km/h.
Hard News: Illegal Highs, in reply to
If this was not against the law, they'd be out of jail sooner. The amount of time spent in jail for cannabis is a real thing, real people's lives rotting in jail over something millions of NZers have done regularly.
No. I'm saying that, for example someone gets two years imprisonment for burglary and one month for possession of class A, for a total sentence of two years and release after one year (because that's how concurrent sentences work). If class A drugs hadn't been found on them, the total sentence would be two years, with release after one year.
Hard News: Illegal Highs, in reply to
because those statistics are published?
I have just OIAed the stats, but my confidence comes from knowing how criminal sentencing works. e.g. Police suspect someone is a burglar, and get a search warrant to search for stolen goods. In the course of the search they find some drugs (getting money for this may have been the reason for the burglary). They charge both. The person gets two years for burglary and one month for the possession charge, to be served simultaneously.
Will happen with a bunch of offences. Drunken assault in a pub or street. Police arrest and conduct a search incident to arrest, find drug utensils etc. When you get to sentencing it all comes out in the wash. You can't sentence someone to community work if they're going to prison for something else, and it would be wrong to fine them (just setting them up to fail when they're released), so they get short sentence for the minor offending.
I'm not saying that this is every case. But I do think it will be a lot of them. And hopefully we'll know in 20 working days or so.
Hard News: Illegal Highs, in reply to
Mallard just pulled his "no one is ever jailed for pot possession" out of his ass – and carried on even after he was shown evidence of how wrong he is.
You need to contrast between those sent to prison for drug possession alone, and those sent to prison for burglary and drug possession or receiving stolen goods and drug possession. None of the statistics quoted make this distinction. I am confident that many (I suspect most, and perhaps not far short of all) people given a prison sentence for simple possession are serving that prison sentence simultaneously with a prison sentence for some other, more serious, offence.
There will be some who have served a prison term because, for example, of failure to comply with a community sentence given for drug possession, but people sentenced to prison for drug possession and nothing more will be very few.
Hard News: Illegal Highs, in reply to
But that $500k fine only applies to a body corporate, not an individual.
Well, for individuals, the maximum fine is the same then. $10,000. But vastly different for bodies corporate.
Hard News: Illegal Highs, in reply to
By comparison, the penalties relating to cannabis under the Misuse of Drugs Act are much more severe: three months jail for possession and eight years for supply or even growing plants.
And soon to be ten years for possession of a book about growing the plants (or 14 years if you ordered it from Amazon).
I would note that the maximum fine for drug dealing/growing/etc. offences is substantially lower than that applying to other psychoactives covered by this regime.

No, if you take them further back, then you are changing the design relationship between the ear, driver and enclosure.
Alpha Dog takes the T50RP driver and changes the relationship to the ear (Alpha Pads) and to the enclosure (new 3D printed ear cup).
So, you are agreeing with me on both points:
* Previously you stated that one identified technically superior drivers "Because they sound better". That was my point arguing against the other poster's comment that the drivers were identified as superior because they were more expensive, bigger and had graphs.
* Now you are agreeing with me that the relationship to the ear and to the enclosure is crucial to whether a driver works well or not.
We can only evaluate a driver based on its sound quality in use in a headphone. As people like Dan and LFF make better and better headphones from the T50RP, we find that our estimation of the T50RP driver increases. So, the original argument "it can't be that good because it uses a T50RP driver" is a circular argument.

Yota Oue, Xavier HS graduate and now sophomore at Fordham University, decided to accept an invitation to attend a black tie dinner in downtown Manhattan sponsored by the "other" Xavier High School–the older and richer brother of our school in Chuuk. He and I met on the Fordham campus (after a little basketball, naturally) and headed downtown. Continue reading →
You Can Never Go Home…Or Can You?
You can never really go home, they say. If what they mean is that the landscape is forever changing, that is certainly true on Pohnpei. When I stopped off there for a few days after completing my work for the tourism study in Palau to follow up on some business matters, the place had indeed changed. The track at PICS was newly repaired, the tennis courts were in better shape than they had been in years, and the swimming pool was renovated–-all in preparation for the Micronesian Games held this past summer.

A Few Weeks in Palau
Here we are in Palau, an island group with a per capita income four times higher than that of the rest of Micronesia. "The Land of Gold Chains and Fancy Watches" is what one of our Jesuit volunteer teachers used to call it some years ago. It's a place that is on the map–-Darryl Hannah and JFK Jr. vacationed here 20 years ago, and the Survivor TV series was filmed here ten years ago. The country has been self-governing for only 35 years, but it has had two presidents who died violent deaths–-one who was assassinated and another who shot himself. It's never exactly been Dullsville here in Palau. Where else, a friend once asked, could you strike up a serious conversation on current political affairs with a total stranger? Continue reading →
Hanging on to Cultural Knowledge…Korea-Style
Korea may seem an unlikely spot for mounting a crusade aimed at cultural preservation in the Pacific, but the UNESCO Center for the Asia Pacific Region happens to be located there. So it was that a handful of us from the Pacific met there in the traditional southern town of Jeonju. Did I say town? Jeonju is really a city with beautifully designed glass and steel buildings and a population bigger than my hometown (Buffalo). But it also is the home of a traditional Korean village, the palace of the emperors of the Chosun dynasty (who first came to power in the 14th century), and the burial place of the first Christian martyr in Korea.

A Band of Explorers
We just missed it, but I was in the mountains in upstate New York with my "extended family" of 60+ relatives at the time. July 31 was the feast of St. Ignatius Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits. So, even if this comes a bit late, let me exercise my bragging rights and share with you a reflection or two on the religious order that I have belonged to for the past 58 years. Continue reading →
Folks Out West…In Brilliant Color
The first week in July was travel time for Nathan Fitch, former PCV on Kosrae, and me as we visited three cities to finish the interviews needed for a new video on Micronesian migrants.

If We Don't Take Care of Our Own…
At first she wanted to be a police officer, although she had the natural talent to become a lawyer if she chose. But she really wanted to bust lawbreakers, not defend them in court–as she would have had to do as a lawyer.
As it turned out, she became a police officer on Saipan and served there for ten years. But when her father became seriously ill with kidney disease brought on by diabetes, she felt obliged to follow him to Hawaii. Continue reading →
Why Won't They Go to School?
When I was in Milan, Minnesota, visiting the Chuukese community there a couple of months ago, I heard one single complaint repeated again and again by the Americans looking out for their guests. Many of the young Chuukese would often skip school. Not just the older ones who might have had more interesting things to do, but the small kids as well.
Why won't the children go to school? When I asked the question of the parents, I would simply get a shrug or shake of the head. If I pursued the point, they might admit that the kids felt uncomfortable in class. Why is that? Maybe because their kids couldn't answer the questions the way other students could and they just felt stupid. Sometimes their kids couldn't even understand the question. Continue reading →

Milan… a three hour drive west from Minneapolis across the prairie… mile after mile of flat farmland with a train station and population center every now and then.

Jovi Rockwell - Ben
Artist: Jovi Rockwell
Producer: Lil Boy Fresh
Album: Psycho Therapy
Avg Rating: 4.0 ( 24 votes )
Out today, the latest mixtape from Killin Dem singer/songwiter Jovi Rockwell finds the Kingston-bred up-and-comer lying down on the couch for a musical Psycho Therapy session. What's been bothering her? Well, on this standout track, she gives us the lowdown on one of her biggest stressors: an overly enthusiastic fan named Ben (Was anyone else expecting a reggae revamp of the young Michael Jackson's ode to his favorite rat? OK, maybe that was just me.). Over Lil Boy Fresh's infectious blend of guitar, handclap percussion and (on the hook) muted horns, the artist recounts how the simple decision to say "yes" to an online friend request turned her life into a nightmare, and pleads with her stalker, "I just can't relax, and I need you to stop. I'm tired of the hassle and the headache that you're givin' off." It's one catchy tune, but we can only hope that Rockwell talked to the police before immortalizing Ben in song. For more insight into Jovi Rockwell's psyche, grab a copy of her newly-released street album, available for free download here.

SOUTH BEND, Ind.-- Young people who smoke weed may be putting themselves at risk for heart disease.
That's the finding of a new study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association.
Researchers say from 2006 to 2010 they found 35 reports of patients who experienced heart complications after using marijuana.
They also found that all but one of these patients was under the age of 50.
The Chief of Cardiology at Georgetown University says these findings don't show the level of risk, but instead, indicate a link between weed and heart disease.

The play is as described - you very much feel as though you have entered someone's dining room. The play is relatively short and the time goings very quickly as you become completely engrossed in their story. I really enjoyed it and thought the acting was excellent.

Everything went as smooth as satin. I bought the ticket without a problem. I picked it up at the box office. The staff was friendly and efficient. I had a front row seat and sat back and enjoyed the play.

City of Hope receives national recognition for excellence in patient care
Prestigious Press Ganey awards honor institutions for outstanding patient satisfaction
DUARTE, Calif.
– City of Hope has earned two prestigious Press Ganey awards for its top-quality patient care, marking its fifth consecutive year of being honored by the healthcare industry's leading performance improvement firm.
This week, City of Hope received both the Guardian of Excellence Award and the Beacon of Excellence Award. The Guardian of Excellence Award honors hospitals that have reached the 95th percentile for patient satisfaction. The award is given annually based on a single year of data. City of Hope received the former Summit Award the past four years.
The Beacon of Excellence Award, given to institutions that have maintained consistently high levels of excellence in patient satisfaction for three years and in employee engagement, physician engagement or clinical quality performance for two years. City of Hope was one of only 26 institutions in the nation recognized for patient satisfaction. All Press Ganey clients are considered for the awards. The firm currently partners with more than 10,000 healthcare facilities, -- including more than 40 percent of U.S. hospitals – to measure and improve the quality of their care.
"Serving patients by providing the highest quality of care and access to the most advanced treatments is our mission at City of Hope," said
Alexandra M. Levine, M.D., M.A.C.P.,
chief medical officer at City of Hope. "These awards are determined based on the feedback of our patients, our most important critics. Their praise is the result of a staff – from nurses and physicians to researchers and support services – that puts patients as their first priority. These honors reaffirm our commitment to continually improving the experience for our patients, and the care we provide."
Press Ganey surveys patients after discharge from hospital care on a variety of topics related to their stay, including general satisfaction with the hospital's services, speediness of admission, room cleanliness and staff courtesy. Feedback from hundreds of City of Hope patients was considered and analyzed by Press Ganey, and results were compared with those facilities of a similar size.
"City of Hope's dedication to patient care is evident with the interdisciplinary team approach and level of support from nursing, physicians and ancillary services" said Tricia Kassab, R.N., M.S. enterprise vice president of quality and patient safety.

Made in City of Hope: T cells – enlisting the immune system to beat cancer
The body's immune system is usually adept at attacking outside invaders such as bacteria and viruses. But because cancer originates from the body's own cells, the immune system can fail to see it as foreign. As a result, the body's most powerful ally can remain largely idle against cancer as the disease progres...

What if Cats Replaced Sport Balls?
A brilliant new Tumblr blog asks the question: What if every game ball in every sport was replaced by a cat?
A brilliant new Tumblr blog asks the question: What if every game ball in every sport was replaced by a cat?
People can be awkward. Missed high fives, cell phone crashing-- humans are pretty darn good at making things hilariously embarrassing. Luckily for our own entertainment purposes, we've discovered another variety of awkward masters-- animals!
It's March Madness, and we're ranking the stuff that really matters -- animals, cartoons, retro snacks and memes.
This is it – the Final Round!
Our childhood pet was a cat named Snowball whose two special tricks were hiding behind the refrigerator and disappearing for weeks on end. Sometimes we would think that Snowball was hiding behind the refrigerator, and then it would be a couple of days, and we would start worrying that Snowball had died behind the refrigerator, and then a week later she would show up and be mad that there wasn't food waiting for her
It's March Madness, and we're ranking the stuff that really matters -- animals, cartoons, retro snacks and memes.
We have no idea why, but animals are like, super talented when it comes to photography. Remember how they're master photobombers? That's just the beginning. Even though their talent is slightly greater than that of us humans, there are zero complaints on our end, because the result is always entertaining, adorable, strangely hilarious or all of the above.
The public has spoken and Monopoly will cast away the boring old iron token, a symbol of domestic housework from a simpler time (it's not even an electric iron), which has been included in the board game for almost 80 years.
In its place will be a cat. Hey, are you really that surprised? The internet loves cats.
There's no sense in denying cats can be a little sassy from time to time, simply because they're not afraid to make it totally obvious they hate something. Costumes? Check. Reindeer antlers? Double check. Their 'tude doesn't make them any less adorable, though! It's sort of charming, actually.
We first introduced you to the phenomenon that is dogs with eyebrows a few weeks back. It's hilarious stuff for the simple reason that animals just don't belong with human 'brows. But while they might not belong together, animals sporting little forehead caterpillars is straight up hysterical.
Not their boyfriends, of course.
