why is it more acceptable for singers to not write their own lyrics as oppose to rappers?
It takes more talent and work to project vocally then it does to recite a rap. Not saying it's easy to spit on point 100% of the time, but to just spit something someone else wrote is a task someone like me can do right now. Singing, on the other hand, is not.
so because its harder to sing, we accept they dont have to write for themselves? i just wanna understand the consensus on it.
lets put it this way: some singers are really good singers, and can't write well. they are separate talents, so if they lack one, they shouldn't have to shelve their voices because of it. Writers can aid in that (this also goes the other way around, some songwriters are really talented, but can't sing, so what are they to do, ya know?). With rapping, writing is your voice. Your words are what you are their for, not the way you say it (though sometimes that can add to it). If that were the case, anyone could be a rapper. It's not necessarily the fact that it is harder, but it is the fact that in a writer singer relationship, there is a shared and equal amount of skill and talent, as where in a writer, rapper relationship, the vocalist doesn't have to have much talent at all aside from the way he says it, something that most people can do anyway. That better?
The funny thing is Marsha is a talented songwriter in her own right. She wrote Michael Jackson's "Butterflies" along with writing credits for Angie Stone, Alicia Keys and others.
its not. there is no excuse. every up and coming singer i know writes their own stuff. these pop singer stars are selling an image not talent. they are spoiled and probably havent written a song in years. they just do promo and sell their image.
i think she cant sing at all tbh. horrible voice
Really...horrible voice? Smh, nice try though
relax its just my opinion. and yes. everything ive heard from her solo is bad. especially her chorus on kanye's song "the one"
Best female voice in the game. Love her work with Just Blaze in particular.

Vivienne Westwood urges against frackingFebruary 16, 2014 @ 1:47 pm
LONDON (AP) - Never mind the fashion: Vivienne Westwood has it down to a T. More importantly, the veteran designer wants to talk about fracking and the floods wreaking havoc in Britain.
The grand dame's show notes urged guests at her London Fashion Week showcase Sunday to join a rally against fracking, a technique the energy industry uses to extract oil and gas from rock by injecting high-pressure mixtures of water, sand or gravel and chemicals. She also told reporters backstage that climate change must be addressed to stop the damage caused by extreme weather conditions.
Commenting on Britain's relentlessly wet and windy winter, the designer told of how gale-force winds forced her and her husband to get off their bicycles on their way home this week "because we would have been blown into the river."
Environmental concerns aside, the designer showcased a vampy collection that was signature Westwood, with tartan, pinstripes, expertly nipped in blazers, and perfectly draped dresses. The models' matte red lips, tousled curly hairstyles, retro pill box hats and mid-heel court shoes gave the collection a classic, retro feel.
"I really wanted to emphasize, to epitomize, my English look," she said. "This show was very easy. Even before I did it I knew it well myself."
Singer and songwriter Jessie J, who wore an orange Westwood jumpsuit and orange heels paired with a turban made from a Burberry scarf, was a fan. "She pushes me as an artist," she said.
"She makes me feel like a confident and sexy woman when I wear her clothes," she added. "I could wear this 10 years on, and it'd still be fashionable."

Oct. 21 (Bloomberg) -- The Swiss franc strengthened as investors sought refuge amid concern European policy makers may struggle to come up with a comprehensive plan to resolve the region's debt crisis.
The euro pared a 0.6 percent decline versus the dollar and the yen after euro-area leaders scheduled an additional summit for Oct. 26, on top of the one set for Oct. 23, because Germany and France said they need more time to seal an accord. The franc reached a two-week high versus the euro, while Norway's krone and Sweden's krona rose as investors bought the safest European currencies. The yen and the dollar headed for advances this week against most of their major counterparts.
"The market feels comfortable that there's still some upside room in the Swiss franc," said Marc Ostwald, a strategist at Monument Securities Ltd. in London. "It's not a huge amount of room but for some people it's better than the euro. I think it will be another choppy day as what is likely to come out of the weekend's meetings is the focus for markets."
The franc rose 0.4 percent to 1.2267 per euro at 7:03 a.m. New York time after reaching 1.2208, the strongest since Oct. 4. The currency climbed 0.2 percent to 89.18 centimes per dollar. The euro was 0.2 percent weaker at $1.3752, heading for a 0.9 percent loss this week. The 17-nation currency fell 0.2 percent to 105.54 yen. The Japanese currency was little changed at 76.73 per dollar.
Stocks Advance
Almost two years after Greece was first bailed out by euro- area nations, governments are still struggling to find a lasting solution to a crisis that has since engulfed Ireland and Portugal and is now threatening Italy and Spain.
Negotiations on combining the European Union's temporary and planned permanent rescue funds in mid-2012, while scrapping a ceiling on bailout spending, accelerated this week after efforts to leverage the temporary fund ran into European Central Bank opposition and provoked the French-German clash, two people familiar with the discussions said. They declined to be identified because political leaders will have to decide.
Norway's krone appreciated against all but two of 16 major peers tracked by Bloomberg, gaining 0.3 percent against the euro to 7.7061. Sweden's krona also gained 0.3 percent, to 9.0949 to 17-nation currency.
The Dollar Index, which IntercontinentalExchange Inc. uses to track the U.S. currency against those of six U.S. trading partners, was little changed at 76.992. The gauge has risen 0.5 percent this week.
Yen Safety Bid
The yen extended its weekly advance versus the euro to 1.6 percent. Demand for safety has seen Japan's currency gain 7.8 percent versus a basket of nine of its developed-market peers over the past three months, according to Bloomberg Correlation- Weighted Indexes. The dollar has risen 5.3 percent.
The VIX, as the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index is known, has risen 23 percent since Oct. 14, set for the biggest weekly gain in a month. The index measures the cost of using put and call options to protect against changes in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index.
"The yen's strength is reflecting risk concern, as the correlation between the currency and the VIX has tightened up somewhat in recent sessions," said Sacha Tihanyi, a Hong Kong- based currency strategist at Scotia Capital, the investment banking unit of Bank of Nova Scotia.

World's longest fingernails clipped in SUV accident
As she recovers in the hospital from her injuries it would be wise to ponder the case of Shridhar Chillal. The previous record fingernail holder from India cut his own nails off in search of a more normal life several years ago. However, he was so emotionally distressed afterward that he had them glued back on. Apparently, when it comes to fingernails, there's nothing that a bit of super glue can't fix!

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Holiday season no time to cop out on exercise
I am writing this column midday on Christmas Eve. I am happy to report that the workouts at my gym were very well attended today. Most of my clients took an hour out of their undoubtedly busy day to put in some time for themselves before rushing out to wrap gifts and make last minute preparations. It reassures me to see that when someone really wants something, they find a way to make it happen.
As we start the new year, some of us need to be reminded of this in order to put things in perspective. Most new year's resolutions are related to health and fitness and if you want make good on those resolutions, you need to want it badly and you need to get rid of the excuses.
Whether it's mid January or mid summer, the time will come when you have a busy, stressful week, and you'll be tempted to make excuses. You will likely say the words "I am too busy, I just don't have time..." When uttered in the presence of a trainer or coach such as myself, this sentence is usually accompanied by a nervous sigh or laugh.
I understand that this is a defense mechanism. You know that you've made a decision that will have negative consequences on your health and yet you want me to tell you that it's OK, that it's not your fault. If I were feeling especially soft that day, I might respond with the assurance that you will change when you are ready and that it's OK to have bad days.
What I'm really thinking is that it's a total cop out. The truth is that every person is accountable for their own health and fitness. Everything you put in your mouth is a choice.
Every hour spent in front of the television is a choice. No one is putting a gun to your head. Are you ever too busy to change your baby's diapers? Would you drive your car with a flat tire for weeks without changing it? I don't think so. So why is your car's health any more important than your own?
Forget all the challenges, shakes, machines and gimmicks and just take responsibility for your life. Eat clean, non-processed foods, move around every day and get some sleep. There is no one program or exercise or supplement that is going to solve all your problems. Changing your life is up to you and if you want it bad enough, you can make it happen in 2013.

President of the United States Donald Vanderdamp is having a hell of a time getting his nominees appointed to the Supreme Court. After one nominee is rejected for insufficiently appreciating To Kill A Mockingbird, the president chooses someone so beloved by voters that the Senate won't have the guts to reject her -- Judge Pepper Cartwright, the star of the nation's most popular reality show, Courtroom Six.
Will Pepper, a straight-talking Texan, survive a confirmation battle in the Senate? Will becoming one of the most powerful women in the world ruin her love life? And even if she can make it to the Supreme Court, how will she get along with her eight highly skeptical colleagues, including a floundering Chief Justice who, after legalizing gay marriage, learns that his wife has left him for another woman.
Soon, Pepper finds herself in the middle of a constitutional crisis, a presidential reelection campaign that the president is determined to lose, and oral arguments of a romantic nature. Supreme Courtship is another classic Christopher Buckley comedy about the Washington institutions most deserving of ridicule.

Buckley is the author of eleven books, many of them national bestsellers, including Thank You For Smoking, God Is My Broker, No Way To Treat A First Lady, and Florence of Arabia. His books have been translated into over a dozen languages, including Russian and Korean.
Praise for Supreme Courtship…
"One of the funniest writers in the English language."—Tom Wolfe
"The quintessential political novelist of our time."—Fortune
"An accomplished comic novelist and raucously funny political satirist."—Sunday Times of London
"One of the rarest political specimens-- the authentically comic writer."—Boston Globe
Buckley's ingenious and mischievous tale of a Washington shakeup via an injection of good old American authenticity is funny and entertaining . . . clever, merry, escapist.—Booklist
"The premise of Christopher Buckley's new political comedy, Supreme Courtship, isn't all that far-fetched. In fact... this novel could more accurately be called near-fetched -- disarmingly, hilariously so... You'll be belly-laughing through Buckley's byzantine plot, which includes Peester v. Spendo-Max Corp., a case in which a male shoplifter stuffing merchandise into a burqa sues the Reno police force for racial and religious profiling, and ends with the Supreme Court deciding a presidential election. As the president sighs, "It's not as though we haven't been there before." Last go-around, it wasn't quite so uproarious."—Lisa Zeidner, The Washington Post
"Hilarious . . . the book is full of wry observations on the follies of Washington high life. What makes it laugh-out-loud funny is Buckley's sense of how little you have to exaggerate to make Washington seem absurd."—New York Daily News
"Christopher Buckley is America's greatest living political satirist. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it . . . Just take my word for it, and the word is: delicious."—Adam Woog, Seattle Times
"What sets Buckley apart is his ability to mock Washington yet convey a genuine admiration for many of its residents . . . Buckley remains hilarious."—USA Today
"[Supreme Courtship] is full of such tasty nuggets, along with arcane Latin phrases and mirth-inducing names like Blyster Forkmorgan . . . One of the book's telling points is that he never mentions which poltical parties these folks represent, and you realize it doesn't much matetr. When you are sketching a political cartton, donkeys and elephants alike are juicy targets."
—Hartford Courant
"You can't make this stuff up . . . Unless of course you are Christopher Buckley, son of the late William, whose fictional satires are must-reads for those looking to understand our cultural moment, or at least have a few laughs at it. Buckley is a master at cooking up scenarios that are wild without being entirely absurd and populating them with attractive characters..."—Chicago Sun Times
"Once again, Buckley returns to his pet theme: the vanity and perfidy of the capital's ruling elite. And once again he delivers serious insights along with antics . . . Buckley has fun with the court's fractious politics and even more fun riffing on the strange creatures and customs of its marble halls . . . Buckley lampoons as an insider. A onetime speechwriter for George H.W. Bush, he knows the monograms on the linens and has supped with kings. But he's more an anthropologist than a settler of scores. His own libertarian-leaning politics shine through his narratives without weighing them down. And he's admirably fair-minded, skewering politically correct crusaders on one page and holy-rolling bigots on the next. His villains are Washington's ideologues, left and right, whose principles always boil down to self-regard. Buckley's heart belongs to the outsiders and mavericks who see through all the spin. Each of his novels may be light as air, but bit by bit they're building up into a significant social portrait, the beginnings of a vast Comédie-Washingtonienne . . . At a time of high political absurdity, Buckley remains our sharpest guide to the capital, and amore serious one than we may suppose."—Blake Wilson, New York Times Review of Books

What are people doing to be successful in today's times? One of the best motivational saying I got was years ago that gave me the fight to become the person I am today. My goals were to grow up and have a little more than my mom and dad.
But What about You?
I hear people say all the time that I'm born in a poverty world so I guess it's meant for me to continue down this path because my parents lived it, so it must be meant for me to follow their lead. Now if you think like this then you're in what I call. A close casket world.
You're just in the dark by yourself and hoping someone take your hand and guide you to success. Not to burst your bubble, but if you're waiting on something to happen then it will never come emerge.
No one on the face of this planet has achieve success by just sitting around and letting something come about. Even if you are poor, and living in a situation that's not so called normal, you still can make it in this world, you just have to get some courage build up.
I can name many people I know from doing online marketing over the years that have started a blog and grew it into a money machine over time. So there is no excuse no matter what situation you're in or obstacles you have in front of you.
Never Give Up
I'm one of the co-founder of DevsTeam Institute, where we teach people to be successful online. Not all of our students get success, many of them fail. When I talk to the students who failed to earn a living from internet, most of them them given up the goal. They didn't even try-retry!
Don't worry about what people say because if you want to get anywhere in life, then you must keep a straight head. People who say you can't do this are just bad influences on you, so keep those individuals out and keep the yellow brick road of success.
Before I get into a number of ways you can become success. You need to understand that having success is not all about solving your everyday problems. You can have all the success in the world, but if you're not strong minded enough to harness it and work at it.. Then you will become just another person making good money but lacking social skills.
Even though, most of you will never make money online due to lack of motivation, this will not certainly be the only reason you will fail. Your life will go through ups and downs but having a good supporting cast will minimize what I call less stress.
Don't Think Failure Is A Bad Thing
I say this because most of us, SEO guys and online marketers have falling on our faces many times in our lives. Maybe we started a website and had high hopes of turning it into a master piece and realize that it's not going the way we want it. No we didn't give up, it's just that we learned from it and approached the next project from a different angle.
Enough with the motivational saying…
Let's get down to improving your success.
Read Something
One of the main things I do is to educate myself every month, starting from Personal life to managing relationship to online marketing to SEO. If you continue to educate yourself then the road of success to come near you.
Thick Skin
You must be prepared to take shots from ignorant people to achieve your goals. If you can block out the haters then success will find you somehow.
What you do is to follow a procedure and do it over and over again, this type of consistency will bring success in time.
Marketing To Make It
Getting your life in order is not always about making more money, it sometimes comes down to being active and consistence. Because making money online is not a right, it's really an option and only motivated people will likely achieve those heights. Make today the day you take the steps on becoming the best of the best online and even in life.
Final Thoughts
I would like to share one of my favorite quotes,
'No one is going to hand me success. I must go out & get it myself. That's why I'm here. To dominate. To conquer. Both the world, and myself.'
I don't think I need to share anything more!

conflicts between play evolutions in existence of a Job with @OnApplicationStart
Reported by Jaime Hablutzel | April 26th, 2012 @ 04:05 PM
Reproduction steps:
If you have a class like this one:
public class SetupClass extends Job {
public void doJob() {
Then you create an evolution like the following:
# --- !Ups
create table pojo(
id bigint not null auto_increment,
name varchar(255),
primary key (id)
And you have an action method in a controller like this one:
public static void index() {
List<Pojo> fetch = Pojo.find("byName", "foo").fetch();
String name= fetch.get(0).name;
Then you run play this will warn you that evolutions need to be run, so you run it and inmediately you will get a
ClassCastException occured : models.Pojo cannot be cast to models.Pojo
Assuming you was in localhost:9000 and the action method matched that url. The curious thing is that this error doesn't happen if you don't have any class annotated with @OnApplicationStart,
Debugging I encountered that this is related to the fact that when Evolutions throws play.db.Evolutions$InvalidDatabaseRevision play sets play.Play#started to false making play framework to call play.Play#start again as a result to the next call to play.Play#detectChanges
Framework version: 1.2.x

How To Fish For Fluke With Light Tackle & Gulp
I am lucky enough to be able to fish year round on Long Island and SW Florida but fluking is by far my favorite and I look forward to fluke season every summer. I approach fluke fishing with the passion of the most die hard bass anglers. I never enjoyed fishing for fluke with heavy sinkers, rods & line so I started to experiment with soft plastics and jigheads on light tackle about 12 years ago. I had good success but things changed to the better when Berkley introduced the Gulp baits. I now out fish anyone who comes on my boat and fishes with bait and I have a lot more fun landing these fish on light tackle.
A 6 foot to 6 1/2 foot medium light to medium action rod with a 2000 to 3000 size reel spooled with 10 lb test braid and 2 feet of flourocarbon leader will work under most conditions when you can use a 1/4 to 1 oz jighead or bucktail. Baitcasting combos also work well. A heavier rod will be needed for bucktails and jigheads over 1 oz. I carry 5 rod and reel combos that cover everything from 1/4 oz to 4 oz jigheads.
Locating the fish
Fluke will bury themselves in the mud or sand with only their eyes exposed facing into the tide ready to ambush a their prey. You will usually find the fluke stacked up around structure. Locate drop offs, holes, sandbars or any other irregular bottom with your fishfinder. Position yourself uptide of the structure and drift over it. A drift anchor is very helpful, it slows down your drift and helps elimitate the effects of the wind. The longer you stay over the structure the more success you will have.
Techniques for catching fluke
I usually start with the lightest jig. I will tie on a 1/2 oz C&H Alien Jig with a loop knot and I put on a 4 inch Berkley Gulp Swimming Mulett. I will drift over the structure and send the jig down. Try to keep the jig as vertical to the bottom as possable and bounce the jig 2 to 4 inches off the bottom. When the line scopes out and you can't hold the bottom reel in and drop it back down. After you drifted over the structure and caught a few fish there don't continue to drift. Move the boat back over the same structure because there is probably more fish there. Fluke usually throw up their stomach contents when you bring them to the surface. Check this very carefully, if they're throwing up shrimp or crabs switch to a plain leadhead with a Berkley Gulp Shrimp, Ghost Shrimp, or Peeler crab. When there are dirty water conditions I made up my own jig. I use a 3/4 oz Sworming Hornet jig with a Strike King Perfect Skirt and I use a larger Gulp like a Ripple Mullet or the 5 inch Swimming Mullet. The flash of the willow blade on the Sworming Hornet jig combined with the Perfect Skirt and the larger Gulp creates a larger profile, more scent and more vibation. I basically stick with 3 colors of Gulp white, chatreuse and pink.
When the tide is ripping to hard or the wind is really gusting I have to go to heavier jigs. When using the heavier jigs I add a dropshot hook 12 inches above the jighead. One of the rods I use for bucktails from 1 to 2 ounces has a VMC 1/0 spinshot hook that I put a 4 inch swimming mullet on it. I had great success with the dropshot as a high hook. I wrote a blog for another website last year and I got highly criticized for using Spinshot hook. Believe me it works, the fluke gets hooked in the corner of the mouth and its sharp teeth never touch the line.
24 inch fluke caught on the Spinshot Hook
The other set up is for bucktails from 2 to 4 ounces. I tie a bucktail teaser dropshot style with a palomar knot 12 inches above the bucktail jig. I put a 4 inch Swimming Mullet on the teaser and use a 5 or 6 inch swimming mullet on the bucktail jig.
Bait stores and anglers that are set in their ways claim that you can't catch large fluke using light tackle, jigheads and Gulp baits couldn't be more wrong. I now catch more and larger fluke over the last few years.
8 pound fluke on a Gulp Ghost Shrimp
8 3/4 pound fluke on a Gulp 4 inch Swimming Mullet
Light tackle fluking with Gulp and jigheads is a blast, you wouldn't believe the rod bending reel screaming fight you get. It also saves you money on gas because your not going to the bait shop before each trip and from waisted bait that was defrosted and can't be re-frozen.

United Financial Bancorp, Inc. Ranked As Top-Performing Public Company
WEST SPRINGFIELD, Mass., Sept. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- United Financial Bancorp, Inc., (NASDAQ Global Select Market: UBNK) the parent company of United Bank, has been identified as one of the Bank & Thrift Sm-All Stars by Sandler O'Neill & Partners LP on its annual list of top performers across the country.
United is one of only four Massachusetts banks to achieve Sm-All Star status. United Bank is also one of only three returning institutions from the analysts' 2010 list.
Sandler O'Neill & Partners evaluates the performance of banks and thrifts with between $50 million and $2 billion in market capitalization on performance in eight variables, including growth trends in earnings per share and loans and deposits, along with return on average equity and measures of asset quality and capital strength.
Sandler included all 486 publicly traded banks and thrifts with a market capitalization of less than $2 billion in its evaluation, and identified just 25 institutions that "stand out from the pack," including UBNK.According to a report in American Banker, the median return on average equity in the All Stars group was 10.3%, compared with 4.4% for peers, and the median earnings per share growth was 35.7%, versus 18% for the peer group. "Earning Sandler's Sm-All Stars designation as one of the country's top-performing banks in 2010 and again in 2011 reinforces the message that we are a strong, well-capitalized financial institution with profitable business lines and solid credit quality," said Richard B. Collins, United's president and CEO. Sandler O'Neill & Partners LP is an investment banking firm and broker-dealer focused on the financial services sector. The firm's Sm-All Stars list has been compiled annually since 2004. The intention, according to the report's authors as quoted in American Banker, is to "provide investors with a narrow list from which to uncover the next crop of leading mid-cap banks and thrifts and, most important, expose them before they are discovered by the rest of the world."

Fewer children died last year, 862, than in 2009 (947), the Arizona Department of Health Services reported this week. Pediatricians, social workers, attorneys, advocates, law enforcement and others volunteered more than 5,700 hours to investigate the 862 child deaths. It's 26 percent fewer than died in 2005 (1,148).
"This downward trend in total number of child deaths and especially the marked decrease in deaths due to prematurity and motor vehicle crashes is good news." said Mary Rimsza, M.D., chair of the Arizona Child Fatality Review Team. "This decrease shows that we can prevent many child deaths, often by taking simple measures such as increased supervision and 'buckling up' our kids."
One of the findings in this year's report calls to reduce the number of pedestrian deaths. ADHS is working with counties around the state and local school districts to establish safe routes to school.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Clippers selected Furkan Aldemir of Turkey in the second round of the NBA draft Thursday night.
Aldemir, a 6-foot-10, 230-pound forward, averaged 8.3 points and 6.7 rebounds for Galatasaray Medical Park in Turkey last season.
This was the second straight year the Clippers did not have a first-round pick. They drafted Trey Thompkins and Travis Leslie, both from Georgia, in the second round last year and neither played more than 24 games in the NBA.
The Clippers are without a general manager after Neil Olshey left to become GM of the Portland Trail Blazers. Coach Vinny Del Negro, President Andy Roeser and director of player personnel Gary Sacks are the team's primary decision-makers.

#149 on the list of 150 Most Teachable Lincoln Documents
Annotated Transcript
"You are quite right, as to the importance to us, for its bearing upon Europe, that we should achieve military successes; and the same is true for us at home as well as abroad. Yet it seems unreasonable that a series of successes, extending through half-a-year and clearing more than a hundred thousand square miles of country, should help us so little, while a single half-defeat should hurt us so much. But let us be patient."

Album Notes and Credits
Notes & Personnel Info
|Personnel: Keith Jarrett (piano).
|Recording information: Theatro Municipal, Rio De Janeiro (04/09/2011).
|Photographer: Daniela Yohannes.
|Rio, the double-disc solo concert recording by Keith Jarrett, marks his 40th anniversary as an ECM recording artist; coincidentally, Facing You, his debut for the label, was a solo piano recording, though cut in a studio. Many of Jarrett's improvised solo concerts have represented benchmarks in his career: The K?ln Concert, The Sun Bear Solo Concerts, and La Scala among them. His musical and philosophical approach toward recording this way has evolved and been refined over the decades, but nowhere more so than on Rio, a complete document of his show at the Theatro Municipal in Rio de Janeiro in April of 2011. The date is a hint that something very different is afoot here: Jarrett's live offerings are usually issued years after an event instead of mere months afterwards (the pianist called label boss Manfred Eicher from the airport after the show. After one listen, it becomes obvious Rio is indeed very special. It puts on aural display Jarrett as a virtually boundless musician, whose on-the-spot, wide-ranging ideas are executed with astonishing immediacy and dexterity; this music is passionate, poetic (often songlike), and stands outside the confines of genre. The strength of his pianism and diversity in his thought and philosophy between music and everyday life dissolve into the freest improvisation he has ever displayed on record. In these 15 untitled selections, Jarrett allows everything from his sense impressions about the city, the country, cultural and social history, the evening, and the audience to simply have their way with him spontaneously. The effect is intimate, energetic, emotionally engaged, and wildly expressive and imaginative. What begins in the knotty dissonance and counterpoint of the first selection gives way to the elliptical on the second to something approaching song for the remainder of disc one's six selections. By the beginning of disc two, the listener is transfixed as jazz improvisation melds seamlessly into nearly classical investigations of detail, harmony, and nuance; simultaneously, folk traditions, blues and ballad forms, and rhythmic invention are all encased in a pervasive lyricism that possesses pianist and audience alike. Even music that sounds "familiar" is based on preconceived notions by the listener, since nothing approaching what is here actually exists in Jarrett's recorded catalog. Rio is therefore the new standard by which the pianist's future solo recordings will be judged, and perhaps also sets the bar for any other player who attempts the same. ~ Thom Jurek

Field Museum bosses on a mission to discover: Why are we here?

In an institution built around research, Field Museum leaders now are taking on the most critical question of all: Why are we here?
After nearly three months on the job, Field President Richard Lariviere said Tuesday he and the board are launching a major examination of the Field's mission and purpose and will realign the museum as needed once the study is completed. The study could result in a signficant scaling back of a prominent Chicago museum.
"Everything is on the table," Lariviere said, including potential staff cuts, changes to long-standing exhibits and the nature of research relationships with local universities.
"The iconic status of the museum is undeniable in the city," he said.
But when asked why that is, people in and out of the museum have trouble articulating a clear answer, he said.
The museum is a repository for millions of specimens, less than 1 percent of which are on display at any given time. Lariviere thinks these items might hold priceless clues to fighting climate change and reversing environmental degradation, but they also come at tremendous costs for maintenance and storage.
The vast, largely unseen collections aren't a natural fit for fund-raising, and the museum needs funds to operate. This year, the museum is running at a deficit of about $5 million in its $70 million operating fund, he said.
"We can't continue to do everything that the museum has done in the past," he said. "We have to establish priorities around the collection."
The study, which staff will participate in, is expected to conclude July 1. At that point, museum officials plan to launch a capital campaign to shore up the approximately $292 million endowment by an additional $100 million.
At this point, it's unclear how any changes would affect visitors' experience at the museum. Lariviere said he hopes there will be "significant" change, particularly by incorporating technology and context into the exhibits.
John W. Rowe, the Field's board chairman, said the board was "absolutely unified" that the museum needs to refocus.
"We have no choice but to do this," he said, adding that flat revenues and attendance are common challenges at many museums.
The Lincoln Park Zoo, Brookfield Zoo and Shedd Aquarium are the only three of the 14 "Museums in the Park" institutions that regularly draw more than 2 million in attendance. The Field Museum has pulled in those big numbers, but that's typically in a year when the museum hosts a blockbuster exhibit, such as 2006's King Tut exhibit which helped bring 2.13 million into the museum. In 2012, the Field drew nearly 1.3 million visitors, slightly less than the Museum of Science and Industry and the Art Institute of Chicago.

Knoxville (WVLT) -- Two lanes are traffic on east bound I-40 are now reopen following a tractor trailer wreck.
The accident happened around 8:30 AM, east of the West Hills exit.
All east bound lanes were closed for a short period of time, backing up traffic for more than a mile.
Police officials say a tractor trailer ran off the road, overturned, and caught fire.
The wreckage ended up down an embankment and came to a rest on Papermill Drive.
One adult and two juveniles were in the truck during the crash.
They were transported to the hospital with what is believed to be non-life threatening injuries.
Papermill Drive will be closed for most of today between Kingston Pike and Westfield Road while crews clean up the scene.
We will have more this evening on Volunteer TV News at 6:30.

Last week I moved about 25 miles from Berkeley to Union City. I'll be here for the next week until I head back to the UK for another 2 week visit. Over the weekend I decided that I wanted to take a hike around the area where I'm staying. Unfortunately, when I set out to take that hike, I was blocked by fences and gates at every border between the suburban neighborhood and the "wild".This area is mostly recently built up with developments of single family dwellings. There are front and back … [Read more...]


text: Cymbalta 30 mg for anxiety other SSRIs/tricyclics (Prozac, Paxil, amitriptyline, etc)did nothing except cause horrible side effects like weight gain, increased anxiety, nausea, vomiting, insomnia, etc. Desperate for relief, I told the doctor that I was having severe enough anxiety/constant panic attacks to the point I could not function & SSRIs/tricyclics don't work for me. Of course she listened...not! She put me on yet another one. It's expensive even w/ insurance, $30/mo, which is a lot considering I also have fibromyalgia and thyroid disease and take 6 other meds. I've been on the Cymbalta 1-1/2 months now, and it's done absolutely nothing for anxiety. It made me very tired the first 2-3 weeks, but yet I couldn't sleep at night. I continue to have the daily panic attacks, just about jump out of skin with the slightest noise, have zero appetite & constant headaches. Maybe my pain doc will give me something that will actually work.

While practicing with Coded UI Tests on a Visual Studio 2010 project that uses many WPF datagrids, I've encountered this common error frequently: "Last action on Row was not recorded because the control does not have any good identification property." I'm using data-binding to ADO.Net datasets, so it really wouldn't be appropriate to override ToString(), as practically all of the solutions I've seen on the Web recommend. On occasion I've also seen XAML solutions that involve setting the AutomationProperties.Name, such as one recommended by RituParna at this Microsoft thread :
<Setter Property="AutomationProperties.Name" Value="{Binding XPath=@Name}"/>
All of the examples I've run across use @Name from XML query syntax, but what I need is the column name to bind to, since I'm using an ADO.Net dataset. I've experimented with using various column names with AutomationProperties.Name, yet still receive the same error when I run Coded UI Tests. Does anyone have any idea of what value I should supply to it, or of any other workaround that might apply to Coded UI Tests with bindign to ADO.Net datasets? Thanks in advance for any help. :)

I am on Seroquel, Depakote, and zolpidem. Can I use Amberen for hot flashes?
- Q: My psychiatrist recently changed my medication for bipolar disease from Navane to Seroquel. I like the results, but I am having warm surges, or hot flashes during the day and night which wake me up. What do you know about Amberen as a treatment for this condition. I am also on Depakote and zolpedim. I am 54, having gone through menopause at age 49. I am otherwise healthy.
- A: Amberen is the brand name for a combination of compounds developed and marketed by Lunada Biomedical and sold in capsule form over the counter to menopausal women. The medicine alleviates symptoms generally associated with menopause. Amberen stimulates the hypothalamus, improving communication between it and the brain. This, in turn, "normalizes" the function of the ovaries and adrenal glands and stimulates hormone and enzyme production, leading to an easing of menopausal symptoms. Because dietary supplements have not been thoroughly studied in the clinical setting, possible side effects and interactions with other drugs are not well known. According to Amberen's manufacturer, those with thyroid malfunctions, or those who have extreme high blood pressure should not take the medicine. Also, because herbs and supplements are not strictly regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, these products are not required to be tested for effectiveness, purity, or safety.

- Conference date: 15-18 March 2005
- Location: Richardson, Texas (USA)
The four‐point bend test method has been widely used to quantify the adhesion energy of interfaces in multilayer thin film stacks. However, the adhesion energy of an interface (Gc) may be effected by variances in the specimen preparation method and test procedure. In the present study, a less time consuming method of specimen preparation that involved cleaving (DPN‐free method) rather than dicing of specimen was found to offer a 90% test success rate with high accuracy and repeatability. The epoxy curing temperature and time were minor factors affecting Gc and their effect was within the test standard deviation of 0.3 J/m2. For a higher Gc interface, the epoxy thickness was found to result in a 20% increase in measured Gc as the bond layer was increased from 7 to 50 μm. The measured value of Gc also increased by 20% as the displacement rate was increased from 0.05 μm/s to 0.5 μm/s. The notch or scribe used to initiate the crack was found in one stack structure to have an effect on the interface that debonded. The delamination interface can be modulated through control of the notching step during sample preparation.

Slip back in time on your drive to 'Lili,' our waterfront, private getaway located on St. Helena Sound. The entrance to this private residence includes a half-mile drive along the Avenue of Oaks, listed on the National Register of Historic places. Enroute, you will pass the original, antebellum plantation home (circa1800) once the center of Coffin Point, pre-Civil War cotton plantation. Your last right turn is home to a two-story private residence, nestled in a continuum of ancient, Live Oak trees and bordered by native plantings of seasonal flowers on three sides with a spectacular view of the Sound, sunrise to sunset - 100 yards away. If the trees could speak, one could only imagine the stories a hundred-year history might reveal. Indulge in the best of both worlds, the natural beauty activity of the intracoastal waterway whose traffic includes shrimpboats, sailboats, kayaks, dolphins, seagulls and pellican. The surrounding, densely wooded countryside of St. Helena Sound provides a quiet and serene natural setting.
Inside the home, guests enjoy furnishings custom designed by the owners which included extensive renovations using master craftsmen and local artisans to provide the fine details.
Windows open to expansive, scenic views, ever reminding guests of the exceptional natural beauty which they are emersed.
The colors and textures of natural materials mirror the lowcountry environment in fine decor. The ceilings were raised to expose huge, wooden beams acquired from a local cotton mill. The comfy and classic furnishings suggest the sea, land and sky in soft, soothing color pallet. The copper counters in the galley kitchen were added for serious cooking and easy clean up. Wear is designed to be exposed in the ever changing patina. The line between inside and out has been consciously disguised with plenty of open space, large floor to ceiling windows in the great room, windows room by room that reveal life at the seashore with all five senses.
Coffin Point's beachfront is a natural seashore manicured only by the ocean and its contents - twice daily. It's the real deal, rugged with tons of shells, chord grasses and other saltwater, hardy gifts. Teaming with sea life, this beach is not groomed for swimming but rather exploring, clamming, shelling, fishing and hiking. If you want to swim, pack up our beach towels, chairs & your water toys or rent a kayak, surf board etc ...and head to neighboring Hunting Island State Park. It's an easy 10 minute drive.
At either beachfront, ours or the State Park, it is common to see and hear dolphin, working shrimp boats and a range of seabird action. What is truly wonderful about living by the sea, is experiencing the changes hour by hour, day by day, week by week.
While at home, you can enjoy both front or back covered patios; oversize deck chair seaside or rocking chairs forest side, or put on your walking, biking or jogging attire to explore the beachfront and dirt road network of the neighborhood.
Cooking is meant to be fun and easy in this home. All grocery needs can be satisfied within a 10-minute drive with neighboring fish markets, marinas, fresh vegetable farms, grocery stores and quickstop markets.
Local restaurants and chefs offer catered services while a short drive, increases options to five-star cuisine in town as well as casual dinning at most local diners -- that all feature local seafood. Some have recipes passed down through the generations using ingredients from neighboring farms and docks.
Local favorites include Boondocks, Johnson Creek Tavern, Gullah Grub, Sand Dollar, Foolish Frog and The Shrimp Shack (referenced in Pat Conroy's cookbook) Each with their own specialties and ambiance.
A wide variety of touring opportunities throughout the region include art & culture to serious shopping. For outdoor adventure we recommend Hunting Island State Park, a 10-minute drive away - where you will find five miles of swimming/surfing beachfront - without the traditional residential over-development. There is a minimal gate pass fee. Swimming, surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding and a variety of fishing gear can be coordinated at the Park's nature center – plus special family activities are scheduled throughout the summer months.
At Hunting, thousands of acres of gorgeous marsh views, tidal creeks, and a dense maritime forest provide an abundant wildlife viewing experience that is becoming rare along our developed coastlines.
Downtown Historic Beaufort is another favorite destination - less than 20 minute drive. In-town destinations include Port Royal, Parris Island and the Marine Corp Air station Military bases and a bit further and over a few more bridges you can reach Hilton Head Island, Charleston and Savannah in a little over an hour drive.
Notable regional/seasonal events: Savannah Music Festival (March/Savannah) Heritage Golf Tournament (April/Hilton Head) Family Circle Tennis Cup (April/Daniel's Island) Soft Shell Crab Festival(Apr/Port Royal) Spoleto Festival (May-June /Charleston), Beaufort Water Festival (mid-July), Penn Center's Heritage Festival (November/ St. Helena Is.), , and many local activities including ghost & home tours, Beaufort film festival (Feb/Mar) plus ever-present art gallery tours and community oyster roast fundraising fun in the winter.
Lili grounds allow for extensive parking for all your water and camping toys - boat (30ft+) and trailer and/or RV camper. Several boat launches are only minutes away. Or, leave the toys and call on our local, experienced guides. Join a boat or kayak tour, photo safari, dolphin watch, deep sea charter or sunset sail along the Intracoastal Waterway. Watch or participate in a regatta at the Lady's Island Country Club, spin class at the YMCA or yoga class at One Yoga Sanctuary at Lady's Island Marina.
Keywords: Coastal elegance, lovingly titled (Lili) - you are invited to the comforts of town while vacationing in an elegant waterfront, rural community. Live Oak forest road and walk ways, natural beachfront, lush plantings, abundant wildlife and minutes from State Park, historic and cultural site-seeing.
Owner moved to South Carolina from California and raised her family on Hilton Head. As the family grew up, Lili was purchased as a family retreat. The home was purchased from a neighbor where her own mother once lived. In 2005 a major renovation, raising the ceilings, importing woods and other natural materials were used to expand every space with great attention to detail. Every appointment -- from furnishings to faucets and wall art were consciously and lovingly selected while meeting and befriending local talent.
Jan & Eric Horan purchased this house in 2005
Overlooking the St. Helena Sound, this property is a blend of elegant, contemporary comforts midst a a rustic and rural, natural environment.
