ADMA Biologics Completes Merger And Closes $17.5 Million Private Placement
ADMA Biologics, Inc. ("ADMA"), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of human plasma and plasma-derived therapeutics, today announced the completion of a reverse merger with R&R Acquisition VI, Inc. ("R&R VI"), a public reporting company. The transaction was completed by the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of R&R VI with ADMA, with ADMA remaining as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of R&R VI. R&R VI was renamed ADMA Biologics, Inc. following completion of the merger. The resulting public company will implement the business plan of ADMA.
In addition, in conjunction with the merger, ADMA announced that it raised approximately $17.5 million through a private placement of 1,828,128 shares of Common Stock to institutional investors for $9.60 per share. Burrill & Company is the lead investor in the private placement, which also included significant participation from Aisling Capital and ADMA's founders. Proceeds from the financing will support ADMA's pivotal Phase III clinical trial for its lead product candidate, RI-001, in order to gain FDA approval of RI-001 as an intravenous immune globulin ("IGIV") for the treatment of patients with Primary Immunodeficiency Disease ("PIDD").
"We are very pleased that Burrill & Company is joining us to lead this round of financing for ADMA," said Steve Elms, Managing Partner at Aisling Capital and Chairman of the Board of ADMA Biologics. "It is a strong sign of support for ADMA's important work developing potentially lifesaving therapies for immunocompromised patients. They clearly share our confidence in ADMA's RI-001 and in its upcoming Phase III clinical trial."
"It's not often that we have an opportunity to invest in a late-stage asset like ADMA's RI-001 and in a company like ADMA," said Bryant Fong, Managing Director at Burrill & Company. "From both a clinical development perspective and from a potential patient benefit perspective, we see a very compelling new product candidate that addresses an area of clinical unmet need, and we believe the ADMA management team is well-equipped to bring it to commercial success."

Lunar Glass Sparks New Theory of Diamond Formation
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Scientists pondering how layers of orange and green glass beads came to be formed by volcanic eruptions on the Moon have come up with a radical new theory of how diamonds reach the Earth's surface.
Professor Lionel Wilson, a volcanologist at Lancaster University, and Professor James Head, leader of the Planetary Geology Group at Brown University in Providence Rhode Island, hit upon the theory while searching for a solution to the problem of how molten rocks from the deep interior of the Moon reached the surface to form the round glass droplets found by the Apollo astronauts. As they talked over one proposed mechanism they realized it could also explain how diamonds reach the Earth's surface.
Their hypothesis is published in the May 3 issue of Nature. If it proves true, their theory would suggest that diamonds have been found in South Africa or in the Canadian Shield not because they have any special surface geology but mainly because these parts of the Earth's crust are very old. In theory, diamonds could turn up anywhere at any time if you wait long enough.
The vast majority of diamonds are found on Earth are found in Kimberlites - very rare and characteristically fragmental volcanic rocks.
Diamonds can only be formed at very high temperatures and pressures and must come from the deep interior of the Earth - the mantle. Once they are cold at the low pressure of the Earth's surface they are stable. But in between the deep interior and the surface of the Earth diamonds are not stable and can quickly crumble into common graphite. For a diamond to survive it must travel from the hot high pressure of the mantle, at around 200 km deep, to the cool low pressure surface of the Earth very quickly - preferably in less than half an hour.
The model put forward by Professors Wilson and Head suggests that carbon dioxide has a key role to play in this process.
They suggest that, as a kimberlite ascends through a fracture in the Earth, pressurized carbon dioxide gas gets concentrated into the upper tip of this fracture. Behind the gas pocket is a region at least many hundreds of metres long, full of high-pressure CO2 gas bubbles. When the tip of the fracture breaches the surface the violent expansion of all the gas cools the magma very fast, and the "popping" of all the gas bubbles generates shock waves that shatter the chilling magma and the surrounding rocks.
Professor Wilson said: "This idea came about when we were investigating the explosive volcanic eruptions on the Moon that produced the layers of orange and green glass beads found by the Apollo astronauts on the Moon. We were thinking about the processes that could have caused this and we suddenly realised it could also explain a lot about how diamonds reach the surface of the earth.
"It is a complicated process and until now much research has focussed on the small details. By taking a broad view of the physics of the process we have come up with an entirely new model."

Three Orange County residents who lived through V-J Day share their thoughts – then and now – about one of the most significant moments in history:
Jim Shaffer was in the Army and served in the occupation forces in Japan.
Chizuko Judy Sugita de Queiroz spent childhood years in an internment camp.
Lorraine Lively worked one summer making gas tanks for U.S. fighter planes.
Jim Shaffer
Age: 84
Hometown: Laguna Woods
Occupation: Retired from sales and marketing for an oil and chemical company. Serves as commander of American Legion Post 257 in Laguna Woods.
During wartime: In 1944, at age 18, a month after graduating from Wiley High School in Terre Haute, Ind., Shaffer was drafted in the Army. He served as a radio operator for the 1st Cavalry Division with the occupation forces in Japan. He was discharged in 1946.
Watch Jim Shaffer share his experiences about V-J day.
Jim Shaffer registered for the draft a week after turning 18. He said goodbye to a younger sister, his mother, and his father, who owned a clothing store in Terre Haute, Ind.
In July 1945, Jim shipped out to the Philippines, a 31-day trip during which his ship zigzagged to avoid being torpedoed. In the two weeks they spent south of Manila, the men were issued new rifles, new helmets, new everything, Shaffer says, to prepare for invading Japan. He was assigned to radio communications
Then came August 1945.
All of a sudden, it was early in the morning, the bugle blows and the guy's on the microphone saying, "Everybody we're leaving. Get your gear together and be ready in 30 minutes."
We set sail in a convoy for Tokyo.
They said they'd dropped two bombs and scared the Japanese and destroyed two cities. Then the rumor began: They're going to surrender. I don't remember us getting word that they had surrendered on V-J Day.
Sept. 2, we woke up early and went on deck. The sun was just coming up. We were going through a narrow strait.
The bay was filled with ships. I'm estimating there were 30,000 troops waiting to go ashore. In the distance you could see the battleship Missouri, where MacArthur was. Overhead a vast armada of B-29 bombers and fighter planes soared around.
The minute the peace treaty was signed, we docked. Yokohama Harbor was totally destroyed. As we drove out of Yokohama the road was lined with curious Japanese.
The only bad one I can remember was an old lady. She looked at us and spit. That was the only reaction we (received). I thought they were very humble. There was no smile, no expression on their face. They didn't wave or anything. They just looked.
We felt good that we didn't have to invade.
Our convoy proceeded to a place northwest of Tokyo, about 20 miles. There was a Japanese army camp there and it had been abandoned. It became our Army camp.
The first party we had was probably the first or second night. There was a lot of this Japanese beer made of rice, in tall, dark bottles. We got some of that and we sat in a room and we drank and we drank and we celebrated.

By Sen. Val Stevens
March 8, 2010
OLYMPIA…In response to today's Senate passage of the largest tax increase in Washington state history, Sen. Val Stevens, R-Arlington, offered a warning about the long-term effects of soaking businesses and taxpayers for almost $3 billion more over the next three years while they struggle to survive during the recession.
"The more the state closes legitimate tax incentives, the more small and large businesses will flee this predatory policy by leaving the state. As businesses leave, fewer people will be employed, which will result in less revenue. That puts an even greater burden on the state to extract yet more revenues to help the newly unemployed, which means closing more so-called 'loopholes.' This vicious cycle ends when ever-higher taxes result in ever-lower revenues and the state economy collapses."
Substitute Senate Bill 6143 contains 21 separate tax changes, including a hike in the general sales tax, an increase in the business and occupation tax on 40 different services and the loss of many tax incentives that help Washington employers be competitive. It passed on a 25-23 vote. Passing 29-19, Senate Bill 6874 would increase the state tax on cigarettes by a dollar per pack, to $3.02 in tax alone. Both bills now move to the House of Representatives for consideration.

aftermath at N. 9th & Wythe (via)
Earlier today, we pointed out that a shooting went down at Rough Trade NYC in Williamsburg last night after Indiana rapper Freddie Gibbs' show at the venue, and that he was the alleged target. Freddie meanwhile has confirmed tthat like his 2012 record, he's #StillLivin. With other tweets he further confirms he's good and that his tour DJ is too.
The NY Post article we linked to earlier has also since been updated and has more details on the situation:
Cops showed Gibbs pictures of the gunman, and another man seen inside the club with him, but the rapper didn't recognize either man.It hasn't been confirmed who the gunman was yet, but some people on Twitter have speculated that Jeezy, who Freddie had a major fallout with which resulted in death threats, was behind it. The Four Oh Five also said, "This could potentially stem from some beef between Freddie Gibbs and Young Jeezy, although absolutely nothing has been confirmed, of course, and I'm only putting two and two together."
Rough Trade doesn't have metal detectors and doesn't check customers for weapons, police said.
"They don't have metal detectors, they don't use wands," the investigator said, "nothing prevents somebody from bringing in a gun."
The gunman could have shot Gibbs inside, but instead opened fire when they were all outside.
"At one point, he [the shooter] was standing right next to you," the investigator said. "The opportunity was there if he wanted to shoot."
Others have guessed that Dipset's Jim Jones, who Freddie recently called out, saying "he a wanna be blood," was behind it. But when one person suggested that on Twitter, Freddie responded "na I doubt it he too pussy."
Above is a picture of the aftermath via Alex Esguerra, who wrote "Last night two guys got shot outside of #roughtrade literally outside our window. We watched the aftermath out our window." Another instagram via @leopoldof is captioned saying the entire block is closed. As of now, tonight's Noah Gunderson / Owen Beverly show at Rough Trade still appears to be on though. If you go, keep an eye out for the previously mentioned bullet holes that now decorate the venue's door.
Stay tuned for any more updates. Listen to "Still Livin'" below...

Dipset celebrating 10th anniversary of 'Diplomatic Immunity' in NYC; Juelz Santana says a new album is "possible"
by Andrew Sacher
Dipset at Best Buy Theater in 2011 (more by Brook Bobbins)
Harlem rap crew The Diplomats aka Dipset aka Jim Jones, Cam'ron, and Juelz Santana released their debut album, Diplomatic Immunity, back in 2003 and returned in 2011 to perform it in its entirety in NYC (though despite what was advertised, they didn't actually perform all of it). Now for the album's tenth anniversary, they're celebrating with an In Flex We Trust-presented NYC show on March 25 at BB King's with Funkmaster Flex. It's not clear if they're giving any promises on what they'll be performing this time, but maybe they'll do the whole thing. Tickets for the show are on sale now. Show flyer below.
In related news, Juelz Santana just released a mixtape, God Will'n, which you can download at LiveMixTapes and stream in its entirety below. Mind you, we're still waiting for the promised new full length, Born to Lose, Built to Win which was supposed to be out December, 2012 and may or may not see the light of day. Juelz was also recently interviewed by Fuse (video below), where he called a new Diplomats album "possible" and also said a new song is on the way. I wouldn't hold my breath, but it seems more likely than getting a copy of Detox.
Interview video, mixtape stream, and show flyer below...

Before the Diplomats hit the stage, the DJ treated the highly energized crowd to a mix of current hits and classics - shouting out the late, great Harlem emcee Big L while mixing it up with hits by Rick Ross and Meek Mill. Once the Diplomats hit the stage, the crowd's energy level soared, chants of "Dipset!" accompanying the Diplomats as they performed songs like "Bout It Bout It Pt. 3," "Ground Zero" and "I'm Ready" . Instead of performing Diplomatic Immunity in its entirely as a group, the Diplomats split up and every member performed a solo set, revealing one of the deepest catalog of hits hip-hop has to offer. -[Stupid Dope]During those non-Diplomats sets at Best Buy Theater on 9/30, Jim Jones, Juelz and Cam all performed their solo material, bringing guests like Vado and ASAP Rocky to perform tracks from Gunz & Butta and the forthcoming Live.Love.A$AP respectively. Despite the billing as "Diplomatic Immunity in its entirety" the show seemed to be laid out more like a conventional Dipset show between the individual sets and the performance of only part of the advertised LP.

Girl Talked played Whitewater Amphitheater in Texas w/ Bright Light Social Hour (pics), touring (dates)
photos by Tim Griffin
As the rowdy crowd chanted his name, Girl Talk, aka Gregg Gillis, took the stage in a hoodie and white bandana... and opened his laptop. Girl Talk's set was a seamless, ever-evolving collage of samples, cutting across genres and eras as he combined top-40 gems in new ways and even rap lyrics over Rush... Girl Talk's anarchic good-times music suited the celebratory vibe at the outdoor venue, where the crowd seemed part music nerds in dorky glasses, part sun-baked tubers in swimsuits and glowing bracelets. -[mysanantonio]A week after Governors Ball, Girl Talk spent his Saturday (6/25) in New Braunfels, Texas (near San Antonio), playing a mashed-up set to a raucous outdoor crowd with support from "hillbilly disco" rockers Bright Light Social Hour. Pictures from that show are in this post.
The DJ/remixer will hit multiple festivals this summer and fall including Lollapalooza, and the just-mentioned Popped! Fest in Philly in September. All dates are below.
In other Girl Talk news, Greg Gillis recently made the instrumental for his track with Jim Jones and LLoyd, "Believe in Magic", available for free download. Hear the original, alongside all tour dates and more pictures from Texas below.

Vado performing with Dipset at Best Buy (more by Brook Bobbins)
Cam'ron protege Vado will headline Music Hall of Williamsburg on May 1st as part of a night of "rising stars of hip hop and R&B" that will also include appearances from Bridget Kelly, Cyhi the Prince, and Leeia Music. Tickets are on sale.
Vado, who recently signed with Interscope, is preparing to release a collaborative LP with Cam'ron entitled Gunz & Butta due on April 19th. Check out the new video for "Girls Cry" below, with a snippet of "Hey Muma" (shot at Don Hill's) directly following.
Cyhi the Prince, who is signed to Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music imprint, recently made an appearance at SXSW along with the rest of the G.O.O.D. crew (John Legend, Common, Kid Cudi, Pusha T, Big Sean, and Mr. Hudson). Cyhi the Prince recently dropped a verse on an A-Trak song, "Ray Ban Vision (Remix)", which is streamable below. Reminder, both A-Trak & Pusha T (of Clipse) play Terminal 5 on 4/30. Tickets are still available.
Vado recently performed with Cam'ron's group Dipset at their reunion show in NYC. Look for a new Dipset EP on July 4th entitled Independence Day. Dipset member Jim Jones's new LP Capo is out now. Check out the new and twitter-heavy Jim Jones video for "Everybody Jones" along with a few others below.

The Diplomats, aka Dipset, played their 2nd NYC reunion show on Saturday 3/26. Last time it was at Hammerstein. This time it was at Best Buy Theater in Times Square where the Harlem crew of Cam'ron, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, and Freekey Zeekey were joined by the MPC monster Araabmuzik, Maino, Vado and Lloyd Banks. Yodon reports that "After killing the stage as a group, they all did their solo sets. Cam'ron brought out Vado, Jim Jones brought out Maino and Juelz Santana brought out Lloyd Banks." Pictures from the show adorn this post. The group was also supposed to play a show one night earlier at Northern Lights in Clifton Park but that one was cancelled due to "contractual issues."
Next up, Kill Cam, the Capo, and Santana, head down to Texas next week for a pair of Dipset dates and then out to the West Coast to wrap up the reunion celebration... and hopefully put the finishing touches on their new Diplomatic Immunity LP soon thereafter. All dates and more pictures and some videos from the NYC show, below...

After rocking a star-studded show to a packed post-Thanksgiving house at Hammerstein, The Diplomats are back at it and will play Best Buy Theater on March 26, two days after they play the Trocadero in Philly. Tickets for the NYC show are currently on AmEx presale and go on regular sale at noon Friday (2/11). The Dipset is currently working on Diplomatic Immunity 3 which, according to the Boston Herald, is tentatively due on July 4th this year.
Meanwhile, the individual Diplomats have kept busy. Jim Jones will release CAPO on April 5th via E1 which will feature appearances from Raekwon (who plays MHoW soon), Snoop Dogg, Cam'ron, Juelz Santana, and others. Check out the director's cut of the first video from the LP, "Blow Your Smoke", available below.
Other recent news about Juelz Santana hasn't been quite as jovial:
[Juelz Santana] was hauled into jail Wednesday for weapons and drug charges following a raid on his New Jersey studio, Santana's World...--
"It's about money. They don't care about the criminals, they want that money. They said, 'We gon' get him, he can get high bail.' Whether the charges stick or not, they gon' get their money," said Juelz, who was released on Thursday after posting $125,000 bail.
A January 20 raid on his studio turned up two loaded handguns, drug paraphernalia and 17 Ziploc bags of "a greenish brown vegetation, consistent with the appearance of Marijuana." The Dipset star has been charged with possession of a firearm and a controlled dangerous substance, possession of a handgun without having a permit, possession with intent to distribute a controlled dangerous substance and possession with intent to distribute a controlled dangerous substance within 1,000 feet of a school zone after police executed a 10-month-long investigation that led to the raid. (Juelz protégé and Skull Gang MC Hynief was arrested at the time of the bust). Despite the charges, Santana is adamant he wasn't involved in any illegal activity. -[MTV News]
According to Ticketmaster, the NYC show is billed as "The Diplomats Reunion Tour," so stay tuned for more dates. That Jim Jones video and some others are below.

Dipset reunited at Hammerstein Ballroom (one night after Juelz & Kanye played w/ Nicki Minaj at the NYC venue)
by BBG
Cam, Jimmy, and Julez of Dipset at Hammerstein (via)
[For] ...the Diplomats -- Cam'ron, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, Freekey Zekey -- ...this was the reunion show [for a crew]... torn asunder a few years ago by petty animus and financial accusations back and forth, survivors of arrests and family struggles, but now brought back together for another chance at harmony, if not quite world domination.Yes, the New York Times was in attendance when The Diplomats staged their triumphant reunion at Hammerstein Ballroom on Friday, 11/26, the day after Thanksgiving. In addition to the core quartet of Jones, Santana, Zekey, and Killa Cam, Hammerstein's stage was blessed by the requisite surprise appearances from Dipset crew members Hell Rell, 40 Cal, and JR Writer in addition to an appearance from Black Rob (he of "Whoa" fame, who also appeared at the Duck Down Anniversary). The Dipset crew reportedly covered upwards of 50 songs over the evening (snippet or otherwise).
For the last decade, the Diplomats have been synonymous with Harlem -- even if some of its members have moved elsewhere. In an era in which New York is decreasingly central to hip-hop's landscape, as a group and as solo acts they have been regionalist holdouts, sticking close to the stylistically flamboyant street rap pioneered by Cam'ron and tweaked by the rest.
At almost three hours this rapturously received concert, sponsored by the hip-hop radio station Hot 97 (WQHT-FM), was a tribute to the persistent power of geographic mythology. Every summer Hot 97 hosts the giant Summer Jam concert, in which the Diplomats, local heroes infiltrating what is effectively a national stage, tend to get short shrift. This raucous night was the group's own Summer Jam, full of hits and obscurities and split into five parts: first, an opening group set; then three solo sets, by Jim Jones, then Juelz Santana, then Cam'ron; then everyone reunited to close the show. -[New York Times]
If you missed Juelz at Hammerstein on 11/26, maybe you caught him at Hammerstein.... on 11/25. Santana made a surprise appearance at the Fabolous/Nicki Minaj show alongside another not-so-surprise performer, Kanye West who "played" the Thanksgiving Parade earlier that day and a show with the help pf Nicki at Bowery Ballroom a few days earlier. Santana appeared with Fab for "Beamer, Benz, or Bentley" while West again appeared with Minaj for "Monster" from his new album.
Videos from both Hammerstein shows below...

Dipset with Dr. Dre
"The Diplomats, also popularly known as Dipset, are a Harlem-based hip hop group founded by Cam'ron and Jim Jones in 1997. The original members of the group were Cam'ron, Freekey Zekey, and Jim Jones ; who all grew up together in Harlem. Juelz Santana would later be added to the group in 2000." [Wiki]Cam'ron, Juelz, and Jim Jones have killed the noise and reformed The Diplomats who are set to take off on the live stage, November 26th at Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC (tickets to the post-Thanksgiving show will cost you $63.50- $73.50).
No word if any of the other Dipset crew will be on board as well (Hell Rell, Un Kasa, Byrd Gang, J.R. Writer, 40 Cal, etc, etc). What is known is that the crew is preparing a new LP (Diplomatic Immunity 3?) and have enlisted Dr Dre for the production (as pictured above). Though no label is currently attached, the LP will reportedly hit next year and Freeky Zeeky recently insinuated that Dipset will sign with Interscope Records in the near future. No other details are known, but if you have questions you can always try and call Jim Jones at (917) 675-3685. Seriously.
More soon, but for now, you can check out an interview with Jim Jones performed in the Dipset practice space, and other videos, below.

Freddie Gibbs is the Str8 Killa (and a straight blunt killa, but more on that in a sec) and he celebrated his new EP with a show featuring the great Black Milk, Gotham Green, Push! Montana, Tony Touch, DJ Spinna and others last night at SOB's. Check out some videos from the event below.
In other Gibbs related news, odds are you won't see the MC at the upcoming Rick Ross / Diddy shindig at Governor's Island:
Complex: Switching topics: One of the hottest rappers right now is Rick Ross. One of your recent tweets read: "Who are you? Rick Ross, Big Meech or Larry Hoover? the rap game is like halloween every day?"Ouchie. He goes on to speak on Diddy, Khaled, and many others in the same interview.
Freddie Gibbs: [Laughs.] That's real, man. That dude makes good records, but I just can't support no bold-faced lying on records. I guess he's entertaining people. It's like a movie, like Scarface. He can have that fake lane. I'll stay in the real lane. We got a non-fiction lane of rap, that's how I'm looking at it now. So you got that fiction lane over there where they're doing all them. I do the non-fiction, the autobiography, the real shit. It's all good.... I mean you can't really trip on him yelling names out. This the same dude that told you he knew Noriega when he first came out, so...
As you can see above, Jim Jones was spotted at the Freddie Gibbs/Black Milk shindig. Jones's reunited partner in rhyme (dipset all day, as the kids say) Cam'ron will headline the Funkmaster Flex birthday party next Wednesday (8/11) at BB King's. Look for Killa Cam to perform alongside a team Ja Rule, Capone & Noreaga, Group Home (who just played Brooklyn Hip Hop Fest) and DJ Premier (him too). Tickets are on sale, yuhnahmean? Dig on the remix for "Salute" from Jim Jones's upcoming LP The Capo (9/28 via E1) featuring Juelz Santana, Vado, and Cam'ron above.

Mos Def on new Gorillaz album, playing Highline, in Blakroc w/ Black Keys & Jim Jones (video from Letterman last night)
by BBG
Dan Auerbach, Jim Jones, Mos Def, Patrick Carney, and Damon Dash
Just in time for the holidays and to remind the hip hop listmakers that The Ecstatic was/is the truth, the two-time Grammy nominated Mos Def has scheduled a show on 12/20 at Highline Ballroom. Tickets, though not cheap, are on sale.
Mos Def was also recently announced as a contributor to the new Gorillaz record, along with a host of notables
The third Gorillaz album will feature one newly announced GPS voice, two iconic frontmen of the '60s and '70s, and more, lending to a contributing line-up as eclectic as the one heard on 2005's Demon Days.Mos Def is also part of another notable crew, Blakroc, a project featuring The Black Keys as a backing band for a crew of killer MCs!
The GPS voice, Snoop Dogg, plus Lou Reed of The Velvet Underground and Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees, will be heard alongside Mos Def, Bobby Womack, The Horrors and the Syrian National Symphony Orchestra in Plastic Beach, out 2010.
The Black Keys' Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney have wanted to make a hip-hop album since they were teenagers....The self-titled, Damon Dash-presented BlakRoc LP is out now and also features Q-Tip, ODB, RZA, Raekwon, and Jim Jones among others.
"All the blues music I liked was super simple and stripped down. All the hip-hop I liked was super simple and stripped down," says Auerbach. "We always heard that connection."
The Black Keys' first demo reflected their hip-hop tastes. It featured drum loops and samples, which their first record label later told them to scrap. Years later, following recent praise for their minimalist, bluesy jams, The Black Keys have finally recorded a hip-hop album. Their collaborative ensemble is called BlakRoc.
"What makes this special is the guys' sensibility of hip-hop," [Pharoahe Monch] says. "The drum loop-like timing and patterns make a groove that is easy to rhyme to and to write over."-[NPR]
Raekwon is on tour now and also has a NYC show coming up.
The Capo Jim Jones and Mos Def, along with the Black Keys, (BlakRoc) played Letterman last night (12/8) - the same night that Jawbox was burnin' Fallon to the ground. It was also rumored that the group might play a secret show at new venue Under 100 (in the basement of Damon Dash's building) later that night, but though Mos Def was there hanging out (again), he and the group didn't actually play (pictures from that event coming later).
Dig on the live Blakroc video from Letterman, the official video for the same song, as well as more videos from Mos, below...

An Evening with Jay-Z, January 19, 2009 8PM (kepkanation)
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- With George W. Bush all packed up and out of the White House, and Barack Obama ready to move in, hip-hop has never felt more patriotic. And the huge theme for Obama's inauguration weekend has been Young Jeezy's "My President." On Monday night, in the town nicknamed "Chocolate City," Jay-Z drove his audience wild with his new verse for the song's remix.Beyoncé, Mary J. Blige, and Young Jeezy were among the guests who joined Jay at the Warner Theater last night. Jay was Young Jeezy's guest at a show in the same town one night earlier. Earlier on Sunday was the biggest Obama-related concert of all in front of Abraham Lincoln. Mary J. Blige and Beyonce also performed at that.
The show at the Warner Theatre was billed as the "Concert on the Eve of Change," but the crowd welcomed a very familiar Hov game-plan: knock 'em with his own hits and those of his big-name guests.
After "Brooklyn Go Hard," Jay informed D.C. that he was ready for a long night." [MTV]
The Beastie Boys also played a show in the same town on Monday night.
Jim Jones recently turned himself in to the NYPD after he fought with a friend of Jay-Z.
A snippet of video from the Jay-Z show below...

Clipse's Pusha T & Wale
Wednesday night, in downtown Manhattan, Mark Ronson's Allido Records and Hot 97 hosted a show featuring Colin Munroe, Wale, and Kid CuDi at the Highline Ballroom. Hot 97 on air-personalities Cipha Sounds and Peter Rosenberg took on hosting duties, lightening up the tense air between the sardine can-packed concertgoers....More pictures below...
...GOOD Music's latest signee and Kanye's new wonderboy, Kid Cudi, hit the stage next. Fresh off the plane from Australia, Mr. Solo Dolo definitely had all eyes on him. After killing mixtape bangers like "Down and Out" and "Man on the Moon," CuDi had one more surprise in store for the thirsty fans, as hometown hero Jim Jones joined the emcee for a performance of breakthrough single "Day 'n' Night," whipping the crowd to a fever pitch.
As Jay-Z and Leonardo DiCaprio entered the VIP room, Wale and his UCB band crept onstage. "W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E." quickly re-energized the crowd, and Hov seemed thoroughly impressed as his goons deflected the attentions of male groupies. The lovely Chrisette Michele made her cameo as the DC heavy hitter rocked his Roots guest spot on the track "Rising Up". One half of the Clipse, Pusha T, also made an appearance for his verse on "Back in the Go-Go". The hipsters could barely contain themselves. In true Roc-A-Fella form, though, the night ended with Freeway and Young Chris storming the stage and making a convincing case for the dynasty to which they lay claim." [DJ Booth]

Jim James @ Coachella (more by Ryan Muir)
My Morning Jacket singer and guitarist Jim James was injured during the Southern-rock band's concert Tuesday night at the University of Iowa.That article was published last night. Since then Jim was treated and released from the hospital. My Morning Jacket is scheduled to play MSG on New Years Eve.
James slipped and fell about 30 minutes into the band's set at the Recreation Building and was taken to a hospital. The remainder of the show was canceled. Officials with SCOPE, the UI's concert organization, would not say where James was taken and declined further comment.
James apparently hit his head in the fall, which happened in the dark between songs. The extent of his injuries were not known.
My Morning Jacket's four other members left the stage seconds after James fell. Drummer Patrick Hallahan returned to the stage several minutes later to say James fell and his injury was being assessed. About 10 minutes later, Hallahan and the rest of the band, minus James, took the stage to say the show was canceled.
"Jim was really hurt, he's heading to the hospital," Hallahan said. "We're really sorry, this has never happened before."
At least one fan yelled "refund!" but the majority of the crowd cheered in a show of support for James.
[Iowa Gazette] (thx Eric)
On a completely unrelated note, rapper Jim Jones is strangely playing Mercury Lounge on December 1st (rescheduled from October 13th).

Apparently she doesn't want to style fictional recessionistas.

What NetSuite's IPO means for SaaS and on-demand CRM
Expert Denis Pombriant offers his take on NetSuite's recent IPO announcement and what it means for the SaaS and on-demand CRM market.
Generally, companies go public when they need more capital for growth and when they have sufficiently proven themselves as revenue generators. Whether it's too early or not for NetSuite's IPO (I happen to think it's a decent time for NetSuite to offer stock, but that's just my opinion) is something that the marketplace is the final judge on.

Fan Blog: Kevin Garnett: The Messiah
I haven't lost my religion. Actually, I never had a religion until about a week ago. Being a Celtics fanatic and having a great passion for the team and the game of basketball, my new religion is based on my god Kevin Garnett.
While changing my religion to follow a basketball player seems quite unfathomable (and it is certainly a stretch of the truth), every Celtics fan should believe that Kevin is the savior of a team decimated just a few years ago with a record of 24-58. In the past 2 years, when Kevin was injured, the Celtics have been 23-13. This is a fine record, and would be still one of the best teams in the league. But, with Garnett in the lineup they are 75-27, which is absolutely incredible. With Garnett in the lineup they have about three times as many wins than when he's not in the lineup, and only two times as many losses.
Garnett makes every player on the floor better, leading with his heart. He is the most passionate, energetic player I've ever seen. His love for the game can only be matched by the likes of Pistol Pete, a man who played for ten hours every day and lived to show the fans how fun and creative basketball could be.
Garnett's rare love for his teammates allows the team to have cohesiveness rarely seen at the professional level. Even his talent — and he is one of the most talented players in the NBA — is hidden beneath the shadows of his excitment and love. He is the absolute epitome of a teammate.
Kevin is a floor general, a coach on the floor. He has brought much joy to the Celtics community, due to his kind heart and rather frightening skills.
So please bow down on your knees, praise the lord for bringing your team such a talent, and join the Church of Garnett.

December 20, 2014
MELBOURNE, Australia -- Tiger Woods opened the Australian Masters with a 6-under 66, putting him atop the leaderboard in his first appearance Down Under in 11 years.
Woods surged into the lead by nearly driving the 294-yard sixth green, the start of three straight birdies. He had a birdie putt on every hole until hitting into the bushes on his final hole, pitching out and making his lone bogey.
The gallery stood three-deep behind both sides of every fairway, and marshals allowed them to encircle the front of every green. Woods only sees a crowd this big at the major championship. He gave them what they came to see.
Branden Grace of South Africa was 6-under with three holes to play.

Marilyn Monroe
On this date in 1926, Norma Jeane Mortenson (later baptized Norma Jeane Baker, and who would later become immortalized as Marilyn Monroe) was born in Los Angeles. Monroe never knew her father, and her mother, Gladys, practiced Christian Science and was institutionalized for psychiatric problems. Her grandmother, Della Monroe, had young Monroe baptized in the Foursquare Gospel Church. Monroe spent time in various foster care and orphanages, some of which were religious, but, from 1937 to 1942, was mostly raised by the Goddards, family friends. When the Goddard family left Los Angeles, they did not take Monroe with them. Faced with a return to foster care, 16-year-old Monroe married her boyfriend, Jimmy Dougherty. He was sent to the South Pacific, and Monroe began working as a model. After Dougherty returned in 1946, the couple divorced over disagreements about Monroe's career. That year, the 20-year-old signed her first film contract and started performing under the name "Marilyn Monroe." Her first critical and popular exposure occurred in 1950, for her roles in "The Asphalt Jungle" and "All About Eve." Her breakout starring role was in "Niagara" (1953), and that same year she starred in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" and "How to Marry a Millionaire." Also in 1953, Monroe was the cover and centerfold for the first issue of Playboy Magazine. In January 1954, Monroe married baseball legend Joe DiMaggio, whom she had been dating for two years. They divorced later that same year, after a fight on the set of "The Seven-Year Itch." In 1955, Monroe studied with Lee Strasberg at the Actors Studio in New York City. At that time she began dating Arthur Miller, whom she married in 1956. Monroe starred in the dramatic comedy, "Bus Stop" (1956). In 1959, she received a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Comedy for her role in "Some Like It Hot." Monroe's last completed film, "The Misfits," was written for her by Miller. The couple split soon after filming finished in 1961. Monroe was fired from the film "Something's Got to Give" (1962), and on August 5 of that year was found dead of a sleeping pill overdose. The death was ruled a probable suicide.
On a call-in panel commemorating Monroe's death, her friend Jeanne Carmen said of Monroe, "I don't think she had a religion. We never talked religion." Another panelist on that show, one of Monroe's lovers, James Bacon, confirmed that, to his knowledge, Monroe did not attend church (CNN, Aug. 5, 2003). When she married Arthur Miller, Monroe converted to Judaism and the two were married with both a civil and religious ceremony. The rabbi who converted her said, "She was impressed with the rationalism of Judaism — its ethical and prophetic ideals and its concept of close family life" (quoted in The Philadelphia Examiner, March 6, 2010). She reportedly renounced her "lack of faith," rather than any former faith, in the conversion ceremony. Monroe was also involved with psychoanalysis, a method with a nonreligious outlook, throughout her career. D. 1962.
"Jane tried to convert me [to religion] and I tried to introduce her to Freud."
—Marilyn Monroe, on starring with Jane Russell in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," in Russell's obituary in Reuters, March 1, 2011

Ken ChenThe scary part was...
When people did the same in return and I wasn't on the mood for a flirt. 7 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.
- The Robots.

Warm Blue gullies
Draw my attention
To two black pools I wanted to drown in
Rosy lips surfacing from milk and coffe skin
Our eyes crossed in understanding
Shifting my body to account for the sudden response
Our eyes and bodies doing all the talk 7 years ago
I easily found the charming in others and just smile when I found out. .7 years ago

New interactive storm-surge map helps residents see potential flood risks

Myrtle Beach historian, media recall impact of Hurricane Hugo
Twenty-five years ago Sunday night, local historian and photographer Jack Thompson was wrapping up a shoot for a family reunion in the Garden City area when he noticed a beautiful rainbow forming off the coast near the pier.
Hurricane Hugo | Let the memories serve as a reminder to be prepared
If a storm of the same power as Hurricane Hugo were to strike again, the damage and devastation would be far worse than it was 25 years ago, emergency workers calculate.
Charley, Floyd, Hugo and Hazel were benchmark hurricanes for the Myrtle Beach area in different ways
Some anniversaries are admired, reveled.
15 years after Hurricane Floyd, devastation still felt in Horry County
Horry County's coastal and inland regions have been shaped by lessons learned during Hurricane Floyd 15 years ago.
UPDATE: Hurricane Arthur leaves little damage in Myrtle Beach area during his cruise up the coast
Hurricane Arthur dowsed the Grand Strand Thursday with the backhand of its king-sized punch packed for North Carolina and more states up the East Coast.
Arthur upgraded to hurricane, expected to soak Myrtle Beach today
The National Hurricane Center upgraded Tropical Storm Arthur to a hurricane Thursday morning, the first of the hurricane season. Another tropical storm is being tracked as well.
Officials: Don't drop your guard because predictions call for fewer hurricanes in Myrtle Beach area
Even though forecasters are predicting warmer ocean temperatures in the Pacific, which will mean fewer hurricanes this year in the Atlantic, emergency officials say one storm making landfall is all it takes for a devastating season.
CCU officials predict only one hurricane, if any, will make landfall on the East Coast or Gulf Coast this year
If Coastal Carolina University officials are correct, there will be only one hurricane, if any, to make landfall on the East Coast or in the Gulf of Mexico this year, according to a forecast released Tuesday.
Residents shouldn't get complacent after quiet hurricane season
Persistent, unfavorable atmospheric conditions in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea and tropical Atlantic Ocean led to the fewest number of hurricanes this season since 1982, but emergency leaders say residents shouldn't get complacent because of the quiet season.

Barbara brings so much deeply-felt music to a record date that it's a wonder it can all be captured on a little silver disc. But it can. She has a beautiful voice, an understated delivery, and a fine dramatic sense, which enables her to bring more out of a song than the lyrics and notes would suggest. When the material requires it, she can be warmly affectionate, coy, witty, low-down, heartbreakingly wistful, and a thousand shadings in between. Unlike some singers who attempt to go boldly back into the past, Barbara doesn't approach her songs at an ironic distance. Rather, she has worked hard to become one with her material. Every song she chooses has an emotional connection to her life, and each one becomes a finely-crafted playlet.
Barbara's romantic hopefulness is balanced by a clear-eyed view of modern life, so IF YOU WANT THE RAINBOW is a statement of belief to her. She can also enact deep sadness without overacting. When she begins, the room becomes quiet, as audiences feel the deep yearning she creates. To me, her understanding of musical pathos is as deep as Connee Boswell's — and I do not write those words casually.
For these sessions, Barbara chose four multi-talented musicians who are long-time friends, and their pleasure comes through. Their collective associations include work with Vince Giordano's Nighthawks, with Woody Allen, Eddy Davis, Kevin Dorn, the EarRegulars, Meredith Axelrod, and the ferry to Alcatraz. The result is both polished and informal, as if we are eavesdropping on the musicians having a good time in someone's living room — Sister Barbara has brought home a new song from the music store and gathered Brothers Pete, Andy, Conal, and Craig around to try it out. There might be cookies later. Or perhaps some home brew.
Michael Steinman
Listen to Barbara interviewed by Judy Carmichael on NPR's Jazz Inspired program.
Barbara Rosene is a passionate interpreter of American popular music. Will Friedwald, Wall Street Journal critic, author of Jazz Singing has written: "No one evokes more vividly the music of the great singers of the 1920s than Barbara Rosene."
Barbara's New album Nice and Naughty, was released on The Stomp Off label in February, and it marks her return to the 1920s. Aptly named, it contains lovely sweet tunes from that era, as well as double entendre, and sometimes single entendre gems. The release of this new album will be celebrated at Blues Alley in Georgetown this fall. Other release parties will be forthcoming. Look for more dates!
There is more to celebrate as pianist Conal Fowkes just recently won a Grammy Award for his singing and piano playing as Cole Porter on Woody Allen's "Midnight In Paris" soundtrack. Conal and Barbara have done 5 CDs together, and many many performances.
Barbara also continues to tour with The Harry James Orchestra, led by Fred Radke. They have been performing all over America and Canada including The Montreal Jazz Festival, and on the lovely riverboat The American Queen. Check Barbara's schedule for upcoming dates in June, July and October 2013, on The American Queen.

Full editorial here
Almost from the beginning of the conflict in Iraq, there has been an irresistable temptation to find, or refute, similarities to the one 40 years earlier in Vietnam. There is one distinct difference, though. In the 1960s, as the fighting in Southeast Asia ramped up, conscription was clearly on the minds of American men of Selective Service age. Many accepted the "Greetings" when they came; many even enlisted. But others sought deferments as students or conscientious objectors. Some burned their draft cards, some went to prison and some just fled the country. Despite all the resistance, President Lyndon Johnson could keep replenishing and enlarging the U.S. troop presence in Vietnam, thanks to the draft. Today, there is no draft. Or is there? — Spokesman-Review.
Question: Do you think the Bush Administration is treating voluntary troops unfairly by forcing them to remain in the service after enlistment periods expire?

You Know You're Excited About Your Upcoming Trip To Disneyland When...
...you take your kids on 8 - 10 minute walks in a familiar place, so you can really put that 8 - 10 minute walk from Hojo to DL in perspective. ;)
...you make your 3 boys watch Sleeping Beauty for the first time, to familiarize them with more Disney characters -- and you realize that Sleeping Beauty can really hold its own when it comes to captivating an all-boy audience ages 3 - 9. A special sword and shield, evil laughter, a dragon... what's not to love?
...you see Mickey Heads everywhere you look: in the plate of Oreos you set out for the kids, in the droplets of water on the cutting board when you set down a freshly washed bunch of broccoli, in the bubbles in your 3 year old's bubble bath, in the last 3 Reese's Puffs floating in the milk in the cereal bowl...
Anyone else? :)
...you wonder if enough minutes have passed since you last mentioned DL so you can bring up something else you just thought of without getting The Big Sigh. You're ok with The Eye Roll but The Big Sigh deflates the magic bubble a bit :rotfl:
You are constantly refreshing the Disboards... and going way back into the Dis archives... just to make sure you think of everything!
And you find yourself watching the vacation planning DVD over and over and over again... no matter many years back the DVD goes.
You know you're excited about your upcoming trip to Disneyland...
...when you set your alarm for 6:45AM so you can roll out of bed on Saturday and Sunday 60 days before your trip to make the bleary-eyed and voice-hoarse-with-sleep call to DD for your PS arrangements (just in case of the less than 1% chance that there is a sudden run on the restaurant you might want to eat at on that day).
. . . when you have food stashed away for the trip, a box of the kids favorite cereal, a few favorite travel snacks, etc.
...when you do all the above and probably all that will follow this post!!
At least I'm not alone...hehehehe!
When you have to go to Disboards just to check out your Disney ticker to see how many days to go.
... the dreams you remember are centered around your upcoming December trip to WDW and your upcoming January trip to DLR.
... you have a dream about being trapped on the ferris wheel at DCA
... you have a dream on a weekly basis about riding the Peter Pan ride
... you have a dream about walking down main street pushing small children over (I'm not kidding...) to get to the Disneyland version of Space Mountain
:rotfl: LOL! I guess I'm not alone! Someone mentioned stashing food away for the trip... I think I have about 7 or 8 different flavors of the Goldfish crackers stashed away for our trip. Those and Fruit By the Foot...which I never buy. Thought they might keep the kids busy while waiting in line. ;)
Thanks for playing! :thumbsup2
Oh yeah...and I'm also quite familiar with The Big Sigh and The Eyeroll. In my house they usually mean, "You've got to be kidding...you're seriously planning where you'll eat for each meal on each day?" (Eyeroll) ---and--- "I think you've already mentioned that you are so excited and just can't wait about 87 times now..." (Big Sigh) :)
-you have started planning the trip after the one that you haven't even had yet!
-you constantly talk to your husband about DL and ask each other "is this normal?" and then think "who cares, we love it and that is all that matters!"
At least once a day you tell your son : "Guess what??? I'm going to Disneyland in (see ticker below) days!!"
He always grins though, so that is a good thing.
You look for an excuse to go to Home Depot to get LGMH's. Well, not totally an "excuse" as I did see a rat peek out of a hole under the house at 1am this morning. But now I get to get my LGMH's (as well as wood & rat poison)!!
You are constantly flipping through your "Disney Vacation Binder" looking at things and trying to figure out what else you can pre-plan.
You have a first name relationship with the disney vacation planner and the lady that makes your PS ressies!
You have looked at every Disney vacation picture on Flicker.
You have a list going of every must eat item after looking through hundreds of pictures of food porn.
You have made diet plans for when you return from your trip because you know you will try everything on the list generated from the food porn!
Not much housework gets done because you're sitting on the Dis just waiting for another tidbit of useful information!!
...you keep checking Anaheim on AccuWeather and comparing it to the low temps you'll be missing back home.
...you are even more fanatical than usual about avoiding germs and injuries.
