need to buy 8 cases of good wine- where to buy in bulk?? (beaverton or Portland)
- 7
- Follow
I live in beaverton but will drive to PDX
basically looking for a large wine outlet any help would be great
I would go to Vinopolis. Their prices are great to begin with, they discount cases, and I am sure for 8 cases they would work with you on price. They are really knowledgeable and helpful and have great wines, too.
They on SW Washington near 10th downtown (around the corner from Kenny&Zukes/Ace Hotel/Clyde Common).

PoliticsSouth Sudan's race against time Private sector and agriculture development urgently needed with oil reserves quickly depleting. Simona Foltyn | 08 Jul 2013 14:57 GMT | Politics, Business & Economy, US & Canada, Kenya, Somalia South Sudan's current oil reserves may only last a decade from now and economic diversification is needed [AFP]Juba, South Sudan - A heavy reliance on oil revenue needs to be urgently rectified by South Sudan's government, analysts say, with the potential of the country's promising agriculture sector one of the best bets for diversification. Even though oil production recently resumed after a 16-month stalemate over transit fees with Sudan to the north, the government desperately needs to develop the private sector to provide jobs and ensure stable economic growth going forward, according to the World Bank. "It is a major challenge for the government to reorient itself from the oil dependence, which will last for some years, to build a much broader base of the economy through construction and maintenance of infrastructure, as well as actions to stimulate agriculture and broader private sector development," Bella Bird, World Bank country director for Sudan, South Sudan and Somalia, told Al Jazeera. Some people have an unrealistic sense of pride. People have to change their mindset. Just because you are independent, everything will not come for free. Atem Yaak Atem, deputy minister of information Bird made her comments ahead of South Sudan's two year independence anniversary on Tuesday. It split with Sudan in 2011 to become the world's youngest country after decades of war that killed an estimated two million people. While some investment has taken place mostly in the capital Juba, foreign investors have been hesitant because of the high cost of operating in the country, as well as ongoing insecurity. Finding qualified workers is also proving difficult with an estimated 80 percent of South Sudan's population illiterate. South Sudanese have also shunned low-skill, low-paying jobs, which has hurt the economy. "Some people have an unrealistic sense of pride," Atem Yaak Atem, deputy minister of information, told Al Jazeera. "People have to change their mindset. Just because you are independent, everything will not come for free. We have brought the cattle herding mentality to the city, people were comfortable with little effort." Many foreign investors in Juba have brought their own labour force with them. The last few years have seen a significant rise in Kenyan, Ugandan and Ethiopian workers, which is creating negative sentiment among unemployed South Sudanese. "The government has to regulate foreign labour. We are not lazy, but the government needs to provide us with jobs," said John, an unemployed man who asked that his surname not be used. "Many times you apply for a job that is in the newspaper, but it is already taken by somebody. You have to have connections." When asked whether he is considering starting a business, he answered: "The banks are not lending. You need capital to start your own business." While the government has taken some steps towards putting in place regulations for favorable business environment, implementation is often hampered by nascent institutions. There has been some progress in issuing business licenses, but companies still report that in order to import or export goods via Uganda, significant bribes are needed along the way. The risk of doing business continues to be high. Breadbasket potential Investment in South Sudan's agriculture sector is particularly important. According to the World Food Programme (WFP), about 90 percent of the population continues to live in rural areas and is dependent on agriculture. More than 90 percent of South Sudan's land is arable, with the potential to become the breadbasket of Africa and the Middle East. But only four percent of the land is cultivated today, and South Sudan continues to rely on agricultural imports from Uganda and Kenya. Sudan's President Omar Hassan al-Bashir (R) and his South Sudan counterpart Salva Kiir (L) embrace [EPA] In 2012, President Salva Kiir announced that by 2014, South Sudan should become agriculturally self-sufficient. But it remains to be seen if the goal will be met. Only about 12 percent of the government's budget went to agriculture in 2013, making fast improvement difficult. "Our budget is very limited, and the austerity [measures] has eaten even more into it. Unfortunately, everything is a priority in the country," Betty Achan Ogwaro, minister of agriculture and forestry, told Al Jazeera. Agricultural productivity remains extremely low in South Sudan. It is estimated that South Sudan's cereal yield per hectare is 300-400 kg, compared to 2,000 kg in Uganda, and almost 7,000 kg in the United States. "Ninety-eight percent of our farmers are still subsistence farmers," Ogwaro said. "The first objective of the government is to ensure everyone is food secure. We still have communities that eat every other day." According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation, 4.7 million South Sudanese, or 45 percent of the population, are food-insecure. Farmers face numerous constraints, including lack of access to basic tools and production techniques. Most agricultural areas in South Sudan lack roads, which not only isolates farmers from markets, but also results in high and uncompetitive prices for South Sudan's produce. International organisations are focusing their programmes on improving productivity. For example, Abt and Associates, a US based organisation, has been supporting farmers by handing out improved seeds and training farmers on agricultural best practices. But development agencies can only do so much. Attracting the private sector to invest in agriculture will be crucial to introduce modern production techniques, but also to contribute to the development of basic infrastructure in rural areas. Land policy The absence of a land tenure policy that clarifies landownership and safeguards investors has stymied investment. According to the 2011 provisional constitution, land belongs to the community but it is the government that signs agreements with investors. This has made some investors wary of conflicts with the community over the use of the land. According to Ogwaro, policies outlining investors' obligations towards local communities have been defined and are now reflected in concessions made at the national level. Betty Achan Ogwaro, agriculture minister [Simona Foltyn] "The community has an entitlement to the land, but if the government decides it wants to zone out a piece of land for investment, it informs the community. The community in turn gets benefits," Ogwaro said. "The investors commit to developing feeder roads and must pay a certain amount into a community fund, and the community decides what the fund should be used for." In 2011, Norwegian People's Aid issued a report warning large parts of South Sudan were given to investors through unregulated channels. Ogwaro said the government has tackled the issue of land grabs. "Those people negotiated with community chiefs, paid little money, and the chiefs, not knowing what an acre is, signed over large areas of land to the investors. But the government has resolved this. [The agreements] were illegal, and are not binding," Ogwaro said. A land policy bill is anticipated to be finalised by the end of the year, yet some are concerned that the complexity of traditional land laws, which differ across South Sudan, will complicate the process. The government must also ensure consistency in dealing with investors across the states. Pivot to the south Developing strong political and infrastructure linkages with South Sudan's southern neighbours will be critical to enable the private sector and facilitate export of agricultural produce. While it was part of Sudan, South Sudan was isolated, which is reflected in the poor state of roads and other infrastructure. The Juba-Nimule road to Uganda is now paved, but there are still limits on how many trucks can pass through the border crossing each day. In addition, delays in joining the East African Community make South Sudan subject to customs that further inhibit trade. The road towards Kenya is one of the development priorities for South Sudan, which would eventually connect to Kenya's port. South Sudan is also looking at developing a pipeline through the south to lessen its dependency of exporting oil through Sudan. One of the key obstacles has been to securing the required $25 billion in funds to make the project happen. Also with the discovery of oil in Uganda and Kenya, there is a risk that the pipeline may be prioritised at the expense of roads. "The leaders [of Uganda, Kenya and South Sudan] have agreed that the pipeline will be prioritized and that the roads and railways will be done in the second phase," South Sudan's Ambassador to Kenya Majok Guandong told Al Jazeera. South Sudan has many priorities on its agenda, but it must boost the private sector sooner than later to diversify away from oil, analysts say. Source: Al Jazeera

Talking Team Canada Roster

from Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail at CTV Olympics,
With the Olympic orientation camp roster down to 45 players following Joe Sakic's retirement, how will executive director Steve Yzerman and his staff cut down to 23 names by December?
And with a dozen or more all-but-guaranteed spots, which players among the longer shots have a legitimate chance of cracking the roster?
According to former NHL general manager Craig Button, Yzerman sent a clear and unwavering message about the type of player he wants to represent Canada - safe, responsible, two-way players with a smattering of versatility.
Yzerman singled out Minnesota Wild defenceman Brent Burns and Dallas Stars' captain Brenden Morrow as two players who missed big parts of last season because of injury, but remain on the radar screen.

He may be a fish out of water, but the ice suits him just fine.
"Spike" the yellow walleye will be unveiled today as the mascot for Toledo's new hockey team that begins play in October. The costumed mascot with the mischievous gap-toothed grin will greet the public for the first time at the Mud Hens game at noon at Fifth Third Field.
"Spike is our most enthusiastic fan," said Scott Jeffer, assistant general manager and director of marketing for the Walleye. "He's our head cheerleader."
The yellow walleye will wear an oversized version of the team's jersey and will don a hockey helmet. Spike's home is "The Fish Pond" at the new Lucas County Arena downtown.

German Players Were Not Told To Miss Olympic Camp

from Reuters,
The NHL players' association (NHLPA) denied on Wednesday it had forced German ice hockey players to miss a pre-Olympic training camp because of concerns they would not be adequately insured in case of injury….
The NHLPA said it had never made any demands about insurance but had simply advised players that the training camps might not be providing enough to cover their contracts or future earnings should they get injured there.
"While our NHLPA members look forward to the opportunity to represent their countries at the Olympics, it is unreasonable to request that players participate in on-ice summer orientation sessions without sufficient insurance against injuries," Paul Kelly, NHLPA executive director, said on Wednesday.

NHL Players Don't Attend German Hockey Olympic Camp

via Reuters,
The German Ice Hockey (DEB) federation said all Germans who play for NHL teams had signed up for the training camp but were forced to pull out after the NHL and the league's players' association demanded salary guarantees that were far too high.
"I feel it is a pity that our players who are active in North America cannot take part," said DEB General Secretary Franz Reindl.
"The players had accepted the invitation for the summer camp and were looking forward to it. But these financial guarantees on top of the existing insurances were too high to pay for just a training camp."
The federation gave no financial details.
Eight German players in the NHL would have taken part in the camp while a further player was recovering from injury, the DEB said.
The camp started on Monday and runs until July 24.

Leblanc Looks Forward To Playing At Harvard

from The Harvard Crimson,
Seconds before the Montreal Canadiens made their first-round pick in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, the television cameras cut to Louis Leblanc. Leblanc, an incoming Harvard freshman and highly-rated NHL prospect, looked around Montreal's Bell Centre in silent anticipation. The Kirkland, Que. native would soon learn whether his hometown team would be selecting him with the 18th pick overall.
"I was pretty nervous throughout," Leblanc said. "I didn't know where I was getting [selected]. It was crazy—I had goose bumps."...
In terms of preparing for the NHL, Leblanc pretty much had his pick of the litter. He could have played amateur hockey or at any school in the nation, including Boston University and Boston College, the past two NCAA Champions. But Leblanc chose Harvard with the goal of finding a balance between hockey and education.
"I thought it was better for me—for my life—to get a Harvard education," Leblanc said. "Even if I play 20 years in the NHL, life still goes on after that."
Leblanc's ultimate goal is to play in the NHL, but he wants to get as much out of Harvard as he can before transitioning into a life of full-time hockey.

Twitter has appointed ex-Ticketmaster chief executive Nathan Hubbard as its first ever head of commerce.
Twitter has appointed ex-Ticketmaster chief executive Nathan Hubbard as its first ever head of commerce. Based in San Francisco, he will report to Adam Bain, Twitter's head of global revenue.
According to Bloomberg reports (and a tweet from Hubbard earlier today confirming the appointment), Hubbard will focus on encouraging retailers to use Twitter to enable shopping via short postings on its social website. Included in this remit, will be the emphasis on Twitter's Cards feature and the presentation of products in the best way possible. The streamlining of purchasing procedures is thought to also be at a priority.
To me, Twitter is a cardiogram of the passion of the live moment. So I'm excited to announce I've joined the flock as Head of Commerce!
— Nathan Hubbard (@NathanCHubbard) August 27, 2013
In an interview with Bloomberg, Hubbard notes that Twitter will be partnering with retailers to sell digital and physical goods on the platform, helping them to "use Twitter to sell [them] more effectively".
At the time of publishing, Twitter was unable to comment on the appointment directly with ClickZ.
Hubbard left Ticketmaster earlier this month, where he was responsible for overseeing a $75 million overhaul of the unit's online technology business.

Lone Star College, San Jacinto College each win $1.2M grant
- Staff Houston Business Journal
The Lone Star College System and San Jacinto College said Wednesday they have each been awarded a $1.2 million grant by The University of Texas at Austin.
The Community College Leadership Program at UT-Austin bestowed the Gulf Coast Partners Achieving Student Success Grant to the colleges, and the grant was made possible by the Houston Endowment.
As part of the three-year grant, the colleges will launch an initiative with local independent school districts in their respective areas to help prepare high school students for college courses.
LSCS will have the College Awareness Readiness and Education Initiative, which will be led by two Lone Star College campuses and the Cypress Fairbanks Independent School District and the Spring Independent School District.
San Jacinto College will partner with the Pasadena Independent School District and the Sheldon Independent School District on its initiative.
According to a statement from Steven Head, Lone Star College- North Harris' president, the college system wants to help students be prepared for the shift from high school to college, because right now, some students need significant amounts of college preparation coursework.

Oklahoma's Immigration Transformation

Temperatures have been in the upper 70s in Oklahoma City this week, perfect weather for flip-flops.
That might explain why Governor Brad Henry signed a tough immigration bill, which, among many other things, gutted a law that made illegal immigrants eligible for college scholarships and in-state tuition. Just four years ago, he gave his approval to that law.
Henry has company. This year's bill passed the state Senate 41-6 and the House 88-14. It's worth noting that the membership of the legislature is quite a bit different than it was in 2003 (the Democrats controlled both houses then, but now the Republicans have the House and the Senate is tied), but, with lopsided votes like that, quite a few members must have changed their minds.
I've never been one to condemn officeholders simply for having changes of heart, although it does make me curious. I'm working on a feature on immigration for the July issue of Governing. One thing I'm trying to figure out is whether there's been a political shift in favor of stricter immigration laws over the past year or two and, if so, why.
Oklahoma's new law is one sign of this shift. It probably goes further in targeting employers of illegal immigrants than any other state law and follows in the footsteps of Georgia and Colorado in making proof of legal residency a prerequisite for public benefits.
Another sign: The changing stance of Congress. Specifically, the Washington Post reported that last year's U.S. Senate immigration bill, which won 62 votes, is running into trouble this year because some of its former supporters now favor a tougher approach. Today's high in D.C., by the way, is expected to be in the mid-eighties.

Ferrari on the 'right road' after Friday practice - Alonso
Sutton Images Enlarge Fernando Alonso believes Ferrari is on the "right road" after a solid day of practice at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Alonso was fourth fastest in second practice and said a packed schedule produced the results the team was looking for. "Going from one race to the next doesn't usually involve many changes, but here, unlike what usually happens on a Friday, we had to work a lot on the set-up, to try and adapt the car to the circuit, the tyres and the high temperatures," he said. "So there was rather more work than usual, but it produced results and we improved run after run. Sure, there's still a lot to do to be as competitive as we'd like, but I...

Some of the so called attacks on religion come as a response to zealots, who mistake license to denigrate, abuse, and marginalize others as religious freedom. From an earlier Deseret article I quote: "Religious freedom is as much a duty as it is a right. Religious freedom and civility depend upon each other and form a mutual obligation founded on the inherent dignity of each person..." Many zealots are abusive and coercive. They bring about reactions [sometimes from governments obliged to protect all citizens] that are then deemed attacks on religion.

Valparaiso, IN (SportsNetwork.com) - Juwan Howard Jr. drained a 3-pointer with six seconds left, as the Detroit Titans stunned the Valparaiso Crusaders with a 59-57 victory in Horizon League action at the ARC.
Howard Jr. finished with 19 points and Evan Bruinsma tacked on 12 points and 10 rebounds for Detroit (11-14, 4-6 Horizon). Bruinsma had nine turnovers to go with his double-double.
Alec Peters netted 16 points and LaVonte Dority chipped in 13 for Valparaiso (14-11, 6-4).
Detroit clung to a 29-28 lead at halftime after shooting an even 50 percent from the floor in the first frame. Valparaiso only connected on 45.5 percent from the field, but forced 11 turnovers in the period.
Both teams shot below 40 percent from the field in the final 20 minutes. However, the Crusaders managed to take a 57-56 lead with 37 seconds left on a layup from Peters. On the other end Bruinsma was blocked by Bobby Capobianco, but the Titans maintained possession and called a timeout with nine seconds to play. Howard Jr. came out of the huddle to hit the game-winner three seconds later.
Valparaiso lost despite a 19-9 scoring advantage off of turnovers.

Fresh Music: "January 28th" by Doeman
Written by La Fresh
January – 2015…already drawing to a close and I don't know about you guys but if the submissions this year are any indicator of what lies ahead I am in for a year filled with audio triumphs. One of the artists currently fueling my vibes and who's growth I'm following is a twenty year old mic enthusiast hailing from Houston known as Doeman,( Joseph Gonzales) has re-channeled his life path from boxing,where he competed in Olympic trials after being struck by a car while walking to a Golden Gloves tournament.His passion for hip-hop music and singing can be credited to early exposure to classic Motown and listening to golden age hip-hop with his father very early in life.His first freestyle of the year "January 28th (Queen Elizabeth)"( a J.Cole track has particular meaning to Doeman as "January 28th" is also his mother, Elizabeth's birthday) and on this provides us the opportunity to glimpse Doeman's capabilities as he releases his thoughts on the current state of the hip hop genre,his peers,as well as topics of social importance such as oppression while establishing a message of hope and unity as he quips "they'd rather see us in cages,cuz if we came together it would be outrageous.".
Listen for y'aself see if you feel the vibe:
DOEMAN has a sound and energy that transcend the barriers of being labeled a "Latin hip hop"act,his love for his craft and discipline no doubt from years of boxing give him a well defined confident edge over the current class of freshman being ushered in with the new year. Looking forward to hearing more from the kid as he's set to release $TEREOTYPE$ EP in a few months, a colab with his local peers the Houstonian Trakksounds and perhaps even catching his live act as 2015 has started off on the good foot for Doeman who i hear will be taking his talents on the road for 2 Texas tours this winter and already named an official act for SXSW.
If you feel like riding more audio waves find the kid & hit those follow buttons:
Till the next one
mi famiglia…
-Ciao-Adios y Arrivederci
Stay Fresh boos!

Fresh Video: "40oz & Big B's Burger" by $kaduf + New Too Fresh Management
Written by Leo J
What's good my peoples? It's Thursday, January 22nd 2015 and it's starting out to be another good year. Today I am happy to announce that I am now managing the newest, brightest, breakout star of Dallas hip hop in 2015, $kaduf (pronounced "Ska-DUFF). I ran across $kaduf online with some music that he sent my way as a submission to perform at Fresh Rhymes. I was instantly drawn in by the soulful beats, followed by raps that spoke to me the same way I heard J Cole and Joey Bada$$ for the first time. I was instantly a fan. So when he came out last Thursday I was excited to see him before because I've had many a times before where the live show didn't match the music sent my way. The live show was even better. His humbleness on stage drew people in during breaks between tracks. Then he reveals that he produced all of the music. That was a game changer for me. For me it said that he produced these lyrical soulful tracks because that's who he was. That fine line of real raps, boom bap and truthfulness I think most people will be able to relate to. His voice and lyrics pair up well. I turned around a number of times to look at the crowd and saw every person in the room breaking their neck to the beats and lyrics. As soon as he was done I had a damn near half the crowd tell me this artist was hella dope, or asking who he was because they wanted to know more. $kaduf and I spoke then, and we have spoken a number of times since. I can't tell you how energetic $kaduf is to break out and become something special. I see and hear it. I hope you do too. Peep his latest video "40oz & Big B's" Burger" and EP "GroveSide Tha Realest" below. Be on the lookout for more music in 2015. Leave a comment and let us know what you think.
Fresh Music: "The Show" by Gitmo Music
Written by Raul L
I first heard Gitmo online about a year ago through some mutual friends & from the beginning it was JAMMIN'! I thought that Gitmo was a rapper but came to find out, it's a record label based out of Denton, Texas. Come to find out Blaze Won, Fab Duece, Pudge and many more were a part of this collective group. At the turn of the new year they released there most recent 29 track compilation; Gitmo presents "The Show: The Soundtrack" which is a creative re-make of Russell Simmons The Show concept. They really did something great by making this a FREE appreciation album for their fans & potential listeners on the air waves. This is by far a quality project for the brand and a potential classic in D-FW Hip-Hop. There are many known names on here, big props to "Trouble" Scott and Izzy the Kidd for putting this together! Come to find out they've been producing a project a month since August 2014. They seem like they got it together, so we are looking forward to the potential that Gitmo shows for the future. The Show has some new names added to the roster like King Pap, Duke, and Stu Brootal, so it will be interesting to see how this works for the record label. With all of the build up going on in the Texas hip-hop music scene D-FW is a boiling pot for talent. Gitmo definitely has a ton of fire power with their team with the likes of Pudge, Wild Bill, Ritchy Flo, Blaze Won, & many more. People will definitely be keeping their eyes open for this boiling pot of creativity. Stay Fresh & stay tuned with what Gitmo has in store. 2015 and on should be exciting to hear & see from this upcoming brand.
Fresh Video: "Drop Me Down" by Black Swan (ATG x VohnBeatz)
Written by Vanessa B.
Happy New Year #FRESH people! We shall start the new year off correctly with #FRESH music, of course! I present to you the FUTURE of Hip Hop. ATG x VohnBeatz presents: Black Swan- "Drop me Down". If VohnBeatz rings a bell, that may be because he has been making beats since the tender age of 11 YES 11 if not earlier. He has also been an attendee at the local beat competitions. #LOEBM Not to mention, he is the son of super producer S1; who has produced for big names such as, Kanye West, Beyoncé, Talib Kweli. So needless to say, like father like son! Considering how young these kids are, I am very impressed with this track. I really like how positive and motivating this track is, and the video gives the audience a good perspective on the challenges the youth may face on any given day. This duo definitely gives hope to real Hip Hop! I love how different the sound is compared to what you typically hear out of Texas. ATG has a unique voice, and the beat has just the right amount of smoothness, giving the song that feel good vibe. I definitely can jam this with my 8 year old, which is a plus! These high school students are truly on the right path and are super talented! I can't wait to see what unfolds for them in the future! Check out: Alexander The Great on Twitter/ Instagram @_TheRealATG and VohnBeatz @VohnBeatz #BlackSwanBeatz
Peep the video and Thank me later
Until next time, stay #FRESH
Fresh Video: "Can't Go" by Bodega Brovas
Written by Raul L
Hello #Fresh world, it's been a minute but I'm here to let you know that the Bodega Brovas have dropped another joint to jam to! Really diggin this "Can't Go" Remix of Daryl Hall & John Oates "I Can't Go For That" classic 80's joint. They might have raised some eyebrows with the wardrobe, but hey, that's Bodega! When it comes to lyrical skill, ever since I heard "We Got It" back in 2011 it was easy to see these guys had juice & chemistry. When you learn the background on Travii the 7th (Chicago, IL), Keynote (Dallas, TX), & HeadKrack (Bronx, NY) stemming from all parts of U.S. and coming together to make hip-hop- the epitome of original sound, in a good way! When you hear Bodega Brovas, you are guaranteed to get some good vibes from their music. 3 flavors & 1 dope mix, plus they have been at it for quite some time in the hip hop game and it's pretty amazing. From traveling all around America to Europe, these peeps are full of life & energy. Honestly I wouldn't doubt it if these dudes got their own comedy series one day! For anyone who loves hip-hop, creative music, or just positive vibes; Bodega Brovas should be in rotation.
Fresh Video: "Patiently Waiting" BY KP THA PROF!T
Written by KarmaSerene
In his latest offering, "Patiently Waiting", KP Tha Prof!t does what he does best and that's spitting his southern drawl over laid back beats. Why he doesn't have more notoriety is beyond my comprehension. Every outing has been consistent and high quality. This visual is no different. The Alex Donaldson directed clip delivers us from the current dreary weather while providing treatment for KP's oft braggadocios, reality driven raps. It's beyond me why he doesn't have a bigger following when the core of what he does is so true to Southern Texas. Like the track title suggests, I'll be waiting patiently to hear more from KP Tha Profit. I anticipate great things from him in 2015.

Jay Z Search Results
Artists Found For Your Search - Jay Z
Shawn Carter - or, as you may know him better, Jay-Z - is an American rapper and record producer, and one half of duo Watch the Throne alongside Kanye West. After starting off rapping with friends, battling, and selling CDs out of his car, he burst onto the scene in 1996 with debut album 'Reasonable Doubt', hitting #23 in the Billboard 200.
That record paved the way for his hugely successful career. Since then, he's gone on to become one of - if not THE - most successful man in rap music, selling over 50million albums and record worldwide and achieving an incredible feat in having each of his 14 albums (11 solo, 3 collaborative) certified as platinum. It was the speed at which Jay-Z found himself at the top of the game which has cemented his place as one of the best (or, as he may say, 'the greatest!) - he was a living legend a short way into his career, and fans and rap critics alike still say the same thing to this day. And years of performing under his belt too, he's learned how to control the masses he's assembled like no other. 2013 saw his 12th record - the aptly-titled 'Magna Carta Holy Grail' - hitting shelves, and saw him continuing his tradition of reaching platinum once again. This time, he managed the incredible feat of it turning platinum BEFORE its release, solely through pre-orders. A man in form (when has not been in form?!), the up and coming live gigs in support of it can only be epic - check below to find Jay-Z tickets through Stereoboard!

Beyonce Knowles, on the other hand, is an American pop singer hailing from Houston, Texas. Starting her career as a member of RnB girl-group Destinys Child, Beyonce Knowles has proved herself to be just as successful as a solo star as she was in a group. Altogether, she's shifted a hearty seventy five million units of her own. Together, they are known as one of the worlds power couples, like Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, creating a globally renowned brand out of their marriage, which has been one of the most followed relationships in the world. Working together as husband and wife and as a family unit, theyre now taking their partnership to the next level as they head out on tour together, which will see them performing on the same stage at the same time. Power couple is definitely the right phrase! The tour - dubbed the 'On the Run Tour' - is expected to be one of the biggest events of 2014/2015 and is kicking off in North America in the summer. The show hits Europe in September with two exclusive shows confirmed for Paris' Stade De France.

This week we test: nail polish remover
Make sure you thoroughly remove old polish before applying a fresh colour, to help strengthen nails and prevent staining.
Orbis Nail Remover (HK$49/15g)
Not only does it effectively remove polish, the smell is less offensively pungent than most brands. 7/10
Skinfood Grapefruit Nail Polish Remover (HK$40/100ml)
Finally, a remover that smells delicious! That is, if you like citrus scents. But remember, this is still full of chemicals, so use it quickly and don't enjoy the smell for too long. 8/10
DHC Nail Enamel Remover (HK$180/115ml)
Removes even thick layers of polish in one sweep, and doesn't have that stinging feeling some products do. It may be costly, but you need less than with most other removers. An added bonus is the fruity, biscuity smell. 9/10
Missha the Style Nail Polish Remover (HK$20/100ml)
A pleasantly sweet honey smell makes this reasonably-priced product stand out. Removal takes a bit of elbow grease, but nails are left smooth and shiny. 7/10
Paul & Joe Enamel Remover (HK$140/100ml)
A wonderful-smelling product that takes off varnish without stinging. It also comes in a really cute bottle - a definite plus! 9/10

This is what happens when you come home ravenous and are trying to clean out the cabinets. I made it a cereal night because I was especially hungry by 5pm today. No time for cooking! I've been so hungry since I got back from Atlanta and I'm wondering if the ~8 miles of walking just caught up with me? My doctor says my blood sugar is low so I'm curious to find out what that's all about too.
I found this crack almond butter in the cabinet (from Kath?) that I was just gonna save for when I get back, but I couldn't resist opening it. Wise decision it was. SOOOO goood. I gave up coffee 2 years ago, so this will be a wonderful morning replacement.
Anyway, today was my last day of babysitting! I'll really miss the little one because she was just so cute, but I'm happy to close the door on the babysitting thing (at least for now). I'll actually be doing some sitting over the summer to make some extra dough to spend in Atlanta, but it's only for a few weeks.
After work, I picked up my engagement ring because I needed to have it made a bit smaller. I couldn't believe how much I missed it! I mean, I went twenty six years without it, you'd think one week wouldn't even be noticeable:) I was also pretty excited to peek into the wedding ring case….
Just two big days between me and summer vacation. I knew I chose this job for a reason:)

I've been wanting to try that but butter – how is it?? I'm assuming it's dreamy
Yes, I think that was your Xmas present!
I apparently have low blood sugar too…maybe it's just genetic?
I love Wild Squirrel too! And the girls behind it are just so adorable, which makes it even better.

This blonde bombshell was giving us her best bedroom eyes all night. Kayla finally had us all to herself and could not wait to capitalize on the opportunity. This girl is an English major at heart, and any good writer will tell you it is better to show than tell. Luckily for us Kayla lives by this advice. When we asked her what she would do for a Girls Gone Wild trucker hat she immediately pulled down her blouse and showed us her boobs.
Lauren and her friends were out living it up during spring break, when they happened across the GGW bus. They knew that no spring break trip would be complete unless they managed to get on Girls Gone Wild. As soon as they got on the bus they were getting topless. Lauren was saying she only liked boys, but the evidence points to the contrary. She seemed more than happy to lick and suck on her friend's perfect boobs.
"The best tits" in town is a bold claim to make. We have seen some amazing breast here while we were around filming spring break. Surreptitiously she removed her bra and freed her beautiful breast from their cotton confines. This is where we get our first glimpse of how great her figure truly is. We begin to see she has something special to bring to the table, and it was not just talk. This girl just might have what it takes to take the title of the best tits in town.
Birthday girl had a sash on, and she was with her best friend celebrating the all-important 21st. The two got pretty wild when the MC invited them on the stage to dance for beads. Before we knew it, the curly haired brunette girl started flashing her tits to the crowd. The birthday girl got into the heat of the moment and started kissing her friend.
Lauren was one shy blonde, or so we thought. She teased us and played hard to get even though deep down, she wanted to be on Girls Gone Wild. Despite what we had originally thought of this college cutie; she was surprisingly open. We had assumed she was just a tease and rather reserved. It turned out that she just wanted a more private space to show off her wild side. This was the craziest thing she had ever done, but she took it in stride and flashed us with her perky tits.
This wild girl is sexy. It is little wonder that the girl who made out with her for three hours wanted more. Unfortunately for that unlucky girl, Kara did not want to go any farther with her. Kara left her with nothing more than a blue bean. We applaud Kara's make out endurance, but our hearts go out to the girl who could not quite make it to second base with this beautiful brunette. Fortunately for us Kara wanted to get topless for Girls Gone Wild.
Our champion is still glistening from her competition, but she wanted to go all the way for Girls Gone Wild. Even without a white t-shirt you could still see every beautiful curve of her natural breast through her shirt. She dominates every wet t-shirt contest she enters. With a body like hers, it is little wonder as to why she is so popular with the crowds.

Paul DePodesta joins Mets
Paul DePodesta is leaving his role as executive vice president of the San Diego Padres to join general manager Sandy Alderson's front office with the New York Mets as vice president of player development and amateur scouting.
DePodesta, 37, served as GM of the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2004 and '05, becoming the third-youngest executive in major league history to hold a GM role.
He is the second high-profile assistant Alderson has named since becoming GM, joining former Toronto Blue Jays GM J.P. Ricciardi. Along with holdover Wayne Krivsky, the Mets have three former GMs working under Alderson. Krivsky was GM of the Cincinnati Reds.

Looking for more information on the Mets? ESPNNewYork.com has you covered. Blog
"Paul has one of the top analytical minds in the game and also has a strong background in the more traditional aspects of player development and amateur scouting," Alderson said in a statement. "He will help establish direction, standards and continuity in all areas of our player development domestically and internationally. Paul -- working together with J.P. Ricciardi and [assistant GM] John Ricco -- also will advise me generally on other matters related to baseball operations."
"I am thrilled to reunite with Sandy during this exciting time for the Mets," DePodesta said. "I know firsthand the type of vision and leadership he brings to a franchise. This is a tremendous opportunity to help develop a winning culture for the Mets and our fans."
DePodesta joined the Padres in July 2006 as special assistant for baseball operations, while Alderson served as CEO of the San Diego ballclub. DePodesta was promoted to his current position on Nov. 10, 2008.
DePodesta is known for his mathematics-based analytical skills.
He also served five seasons as assistant GM of the Oakland Athletics under Billy Beane. He launched his career as an intern with the Cleveland Indians in 1996, and also worked for that ballclub as an advance scout and special assistant.
DePodesta played baseball and football and graduated cum laude from Harvard in 1995 with an economics degree.

American college basketballer creates new record by scoring 138 points in single game!
Sydney, Nov. 21 (ANI): An American college basketballer has scored an incredible 138 points in a single game, smashing a record that had lasted for 58 years.
Jack Taylor, playing for Iowa's Grinnell College against Faith Baptist college, pulled off the amazing feat in just 35 minutes.
The energetic Taylor, who played for Grinell, took 108 shots and nailed 52 from the field and 27 of 71 from three-point range as well as seven out of 10 free throws, the Herald Sun reports.
"It felt like anything I tossed up was going in. Maybe my cold shooting from the weekend was affecting me," Taylor said.
According to the paper, Taylor only made his debut for Grinnell at the weekend after transferring from another college.
The previous NCAA record was set by Clarence "Bevo" Francis in 1954 when he scored 113 points playing for Rio Grande, the paper said. (ANI)

No longer unbeaten in Riggleman era
Posted by Larry Stone
Now that's the Mariners that we know and love. Another excruciating loss. Ho-hum.
Yes, they could really have used Brandon Morrow in the ninth, or the closer formerly known as J.J. Putz. But neither was available, so Jim Riggleman (who knows now a little more clearly why McLaren was perpetually haggard) had to go with Miguel Batista. We're still waiting for him to record his first out.
Batista, of course, made a fatal mistake when he walked the leadoff hitter in the ninth, and as you saw, the inning unraveled from there. Batista thought he might have been squeezed a bit by the umpire on a couple of pitches on the walk to Kelly Johnson, but to his credit he took full blame for the loss.You know Greg Norton was feeling great about his contribution -- that was one great catch he made to rob Johjima, even though it probably didn't have to be so dramatic if Norton had judge the ball better off the bat. Then he laced the double that tied the game, and scored the winning run on Brian McCann's walk-off, sawed-off single.
"The first inning, leaving those guys on second and third with nobody out, I was glad I was able to make up for it later,'' Norton said.
Asked if he was thinking about facing his former team, Norton said, "Maybe I was, because I seemed to be swinging at every pitch over my head for two out of the first three at-bats, thinking I could hit it,and it didn't work out for me.
"It wasn't any added energy. I'm a pretty low-key guy. I was telling Chipper I didn't even know that tied the game. I thought we were still down by one. They all said I should have been on third. That's a scary thought, me getting a triple."
One funny thing that happened after Norton made his leaping catch is that the next inning, when he was warming up, someone from the Mariners' bullpen -- I don't know who -- rolled him out a ball. The pen is located in left field.
"I was looking in their bullpen, all those guys,'' he said of the Mariners' relievers, who were laughing. "They threw me a ball and wrote on it. I can't repeat what they wrote on it. I was warming up with (Gregor) Blanco and I see a ball roll by me. I threw it in the stands.
One thing positive about tonight for the Mariners was the work of starter Jarrod Washburn. He really battled, to use a cliche that's apt in this case, and allowed just one run in 5 2/3 innings.
Washburn has quietly strung together three good starts in a row, even though he doesn't have a win to show for it. Will that make him of interest to teams looking to bolster their rotation for the stretch drive? It might, especially if he can keep it up as July 31 approaches. The Mariners don't have many chips to play, and Washburn could be one.
