When Jamie Foxx needed inspiration for his character Django in Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained," he turned to the Notorious B.I.G.
"I listened to a lot of Biggie Smalls. Whenever there was a time when I was getting ready for my scene, I would play 'Dead Wrong' or 'Somebody's Gotta Die,' so there would be things like that that I would just use as fuel," Foxx told Vanity Fair. "I would also watch Denzel in 'Glory' or 'A Soldier's Story' or watch Clint Eastwood, watch Wesley Snipes in 'New Jack City' - characters that affected me in the sense that I had to make sure Django was quiet."
Foxx, quite the musician himself, also contributed to the soundtrack with a Rick Ross collaboration called "100 Black Coffins," which moviegoers will also hear in the film.
"You can't deny the energies of Rick Ross and Quentin Tarantino," Foxx said. "I crafted the track to have the spirit of the old Western married with the newness of hip-hop."
Foxx is no stranger to the Western genre, and can name his favorite in a heartbeat.
"My favorite Western of all time has to be 'Tombstone,'" he told CNN in a recent interview. "Because all of those lines in there were just absolutely amazing."

A good music is an accompaniment of many musical instruments playing in unison, producing an enchanting musical sound. We have seen music grow and develop from time to time. Music had been there in the early lives, but it is very much different from our modern music. When we talk about music, musical instrument is a part of it. "A musical instrument is an instrument created to make musical sounds". So in a simple explanation, any thing or any object that creates or produces sound can be a musical instrument. In early years, men used musical instruments while performing rituals or any religious ceremony. The date and origin of the first musical instrument is hard to say, but scholars believed that musical instruments like a simple flute are the first to be used. This topic is disputed and hard to prove because early musical instruments were made of bones, woods, animal skins, etc. which are non-durable.
Discussing and debating on the date and origin of musical instruments are not that necessary. All we know is that it had been there and it is all that matters. From time to time generation to generation, music had evolved; so did musical instruments have. Starting from a simple flute or a one stringed musical instrument, today we see hundreds and thousands of different musical instruments today. Music and musical instruments grow hand in hand; one cannot grow without the other. Music had evolved from time to time and today we see or find many music genres different from each other. Examples are like Rock, Pop, Alternative, Country, Classical, R&B and many more. These genres are again divided into numbers of sub-genres. Each genre is different from each other in one way or the other; so does their music is. A musical instrument defines each music genre and differentiates it from others. It can be said that musical instruments are the backbone of any music genre.
Important and Popular Musical Instruments of Today
Of the many musical instruments available today, some of them are very important and bands or artists cannot survive or become successful without them. Mentioned below are the most important musical instruments in every music genre.
Electric Guitar
Electric guitar was first invented in the year 1931. It is a musical instruments with strings attached to produce musical sounds. But unlike hollow guitars, electric guitar converts the vibration of its strings into electric impulses using a pickup. The sound signal generated by it is amplified; and the sound signal may be easily altered using effects such as distortion and reverb. This electric musical instrument is capable of multitude of sounds and styles; allowing the artist to produce music of any kind. An electric guitar became a necessity for a band; to amplify the sound and get the crowd's attention. During the 1950s and 1960s, electric guitar is widely used and plays an important role in many music genres including Rock and Roll, Pop, etc. Electric guitars are modified and newer models are manufactured from time to time. Electric guitar can be used as the main rhythm guitar for giving the right chords or it can be used as a lead guitar for performing guitar solos or perform a melodic lines.
Drum is another musical instrument that has a rich history and its origin dates back to the early days. A membrane or what we call drumhead or drumskin is stretched over a shell; and when struck with either the players own hand or drum sticks, it produces sound. Drums are modified and developed from time to time and now we have a set of drums that produces different sounds, which is played by just one person. Drum is an important musical instrument as it leads and maintains the rhythm throughout the song. Drums are used by all music genres but music genres like rock, alternative, hard punk, pop, etc cannot survive without it.
Bass Guitar
A bass guitar is also a stringed musical instrument that is very similar with an electric guitar. A bass guitar has 4 to 5 strings; the most common one being the 4 stringed bass guitar. A bass guitar produces a low musical sound (one octave lower than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar). Just like an electric guitar, it uses an electric pickup and is plugged into an amplifier and speaker to produce musical sound. The role of bass guitar in the field of music is very important as it sets up the harmonic framework and establishes the beat. Bass lays down rhythm and establishes the chord progressions that the whole song is built on. Bass guitar is an essential musical instrument in every genre like rock, pop, punk, metal, country, blues, jazz, and many more.
A piano is another important musical instrument. The original grand piano has a row of 88 black and white keys and is generally not portable. Pressing each key produces different sounds. Now we find piano of different kinds and designs. It is classified into electric, electronic and digital pianos. This instrument is widely used in classical and jazz music; apart from using it on many other music genres. It can be used in many different ways like giving a solo performance, chamber music, leading the choir, music accompaniment in any song, for composing song or rehearsal, etc. It is a good musical instrument as you can play any song you like on the piano and it has many features in store for you. It provides a good musical background, lifts the harmony and helps express the music in a better way. It is an important instrument in all music genres.
Acoustic Guitar
Acoustic guitar is the simplest form and commonly used musical instrument of modern time, perhaps an upgrade from Tingteila (music instrument) of the Naga tribe, but indeed very basic . It is a stringed instrument that has generally 6 strings. Unlike electric guitar, it uses only acoustic means to produce musical sound. The main source of the sound comes from the string. The sound waves produced by the string are directed through the body of the guitar to produce or create louder sound. This instrument needs no amplification; it produces the music on its own. It generally has a hollow body for better and louder sound production. Acoustic guitars are of many designs and today we find acoustic guitar that can be amplified by using pickup or microphone. Since acoustic guitar usually produces sound on its own, the sound is original without any distortions. It fits gracefully and adds harmony with any music genre adding rhythm to any song. It can be a useful musical instrument in any music genre.
There are a whole lot of musical instruments available today. Music is a very vast subject and so it gave rise to numbers of music genre. Each genre has their different styles of music, rhythm, singing style, etc. This again gave rise to the invention or modification of many musical instruments. Musical instruments will grow when music grow and vice versa. Other popular and important musical instruments will include violin, trumpet, flute, banjo, harmonica, saxophone, clarinet, and many more.

Let's start off with the good news: This primer has a velvety gel texture that is thick enough to fill in pores and temporarily mattify skin without feeling too heavy. Your complexion will look smoother upon initial application, but it's not necessarily going to make makeup application any easier. If applied liberally, it creates a sort of drag that requires more blending for the makeup you apply over it. Primers are supposed to help, not hinder, makeup application (that's the bad news)!
Complicating matters further is the strong fragrance. Whether or not you like the smell, it isn't good for your skin; in fact, it's potentially irritating (see More Info). In that regard you're better off using Rimmel's original Fix Perfect Primer.
Daily use of products that contain a high amount of fragrance, whether the fragrant ingredients are synthetic or natural, causes chronic irritation that can damage healthy collagen production, lead to or worsen dryness, and impair your skin's ability to heal. Fragrance-free is the best way to go for all skin types (Sources: Inflammation Research, December 2008, pages 558–563; Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, June 2008, pages 124–135, and November-December 2000, pages 358–371; Journal of Investigative Dermatology, April 2008, pages 15–19; Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, March 2008, pages 78–82; Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, January 2007, pages 92–105; and British Journal of Dermatology, December 2005, pages S13–S22).
Rimmel At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; the pressed bronzing powder; some of the best mascaras at the drugstore; powder eyeshadows; excellent automatic eye pencil; Lasting Finish Lipstick is a must-see.
Weaknesses: Packaging that isn't very user-friendly; average concealers; several lackluster eyeshadow options; none of the Extra Super Lash mascaras earn their impressive-sounding names; potentially problematic eye-makeup remover.
Rimmel is a London-based company that has been under the ownership of Coty since 1996. Coty's namesake presence in drugstores has vanished, but their history lives on via this acquisition. Once exclusive to Wal-Mart, the line has branched out and is now available in other drug and mass-market stores. Given the low to very low price points and several good products, this expansion is good news for cosmetics consumers! What's worth paying attention to when you come across this line are the mascaras, automatic pencils, and bronzing powder. The foundations and concealers are worth a look as well, but without testers, it's always a guessing game as to which color is best for you, and there are no options for darker skin tones. The needs-sharpening pencils are basic but worth a look, though a few of them smear terribly. There are dozens of nail polishes to consider, not to mention a pleasing lipstick and lip gloss selection. Actually, the Lasting Finish Lipstick deserves special mention for its elegant texture and fashion-forward colors, all for under six dollars.
My only significant complaint about Rimmel is the packaging. The tops to the blushes and eyeshadows are awkward and tricky to remove, though this is a minor technicality that's easy enough to live with, especially at these prices!

Dover boys spin to third straight loss
Friday, February 8, 2013
DOVER — Turnovers did in the Dover High School boys basketball team in the first half on Thursday night. Winnacunnet did the rest of the damage in the second.
"We kept our composure," Winnacunnet coach Jay McKenna said. "We've struggled with that in the past. We've been working on it in practice. Our kids played great tonight."
Still, it was anyone's game starting the second half as the Warriors held a 31-27 lead at halftime. However, a 10-2 run by Winnacunnet, sparked by a 3-pointer from Ryan Gigliotti, put the Warriors up 43-33. Dover inched closer, scoring the final four points of the third quarter on a pair of free throws by Phil Boyatsis and a transition bucket by Shaughnessy. It was still a five-point game after three, 51-46 in favor of the visitors.
Dover hosts Nashua South on Tuesday.

Hi: 12° Lo:7°
By Gary Smee Thursday 20 December 2012 Updated: 31/12 10:02
CHILDREN at a Pershore primary school have been given an early Christmas present which will make learning a whole lot more fun.
Holy Redeemer Catholic Primary School found out it will receive just under £10,000 from the BIG Lottery Fund this week as part of its popular small grants programme, Awards for All.
The money, a total of £9,930, will be used to build an outdoor classroom, climbing wall and den for pupils at the Priest Lane school.
Christina Hall, headteacher of Holy Redeemer, said: "Being awarded this grant has caused so much excitement amongst the children in the school.
"It has very much been their project from the very beginning. As we are a small primary school in Worcestershire, we are amongst the worst funded schools in the country on a per head of pupil basis. This means that we cannot afford to spend any money on non essential items such as developing the playground.
"Without this grant the children would have had to continue to play on a bare playground and stretch of astro-turf. The children, staff, parents and wider community of Holy Redeemer Catholic Primary School extend a very excited thank you to the Big Lottery."
More than £666,000 of the festive funding will be shared between 82 projects in the region, including primary schools working hard to improve the lives of future generations through engaging children in creative, extracurricular outdoor play.
John Taylor, Big Lottery Fund head of the West Midlands region, added: "It is very inspiring to read about all these school community projects at this special time of year. It is extremely important that schools are receiving the funding that is needed to ensure children are getting the best start in life. Each project will make a huge difference and improvements going forward into the New Year."
Organisations throughout England with an income of £30,000 or less now have the opportunity to apply for repeat and ongoing activities under Awards For All until the end of March 2013.

Gallery: Reaction Housing System: A Rapid Response Flat-Pak Emergency S...
The main component of the Reaction Housing System is its Exo housing unit. The Exo is manufactured in two, easy to assemble pieces that can be fixed as standard living, office, individual, double door, and interconnected spaces.
Each Exo sleeps four people on single beds that fold and attach to the wall when not in use. Portable power generators supply electricity to the units via magnetic connection clips. Inside are four outlets to charge cellphones, a weather radio, and AC to provide extra comfort for the homesick.
The Exo's core components come from a prefabricated flat pak, which makes for efficient storage and transportation. Twenty units can be nested on one 53 foot semi-truck trailer or one C-130 Hercules plane (pictured) while 1,940 Exos could be moved across country on a freight train and soon provide housing for 7,760 newly homeless. Four people can move and assemble one shelter in just a few minutes. Thanks to a tool and heavy-machinery free set-up, an entire climate-controlled camp could be arranged in just a few hours.
At $5,000 per unit, the Reaction Housing System is a cost-effective emergency housing solution. Compare this Epoch Homes' $32,000 core model or the sustainable and artistic FEMA Trailer project, which requires an investment of $65,000 for a four-person rig.
The brilliance behind the Reaction Housing System lies in the fact that distribution can be scaled and individual structures situated to meet the demand of local landscape, culture and conditions. A step above tent cities, pods of Exos could create a sense of community, even in the most dreadful of circumstances.

I am wondering if these incredibly fascinating EXO housing units can fit into a sea container for shipment? If so, how many? If not, maybe a little engineering could do the trick.
Wayne March 24, 2014 at 2:37 pm
I like this idea. With good insulation, this would be a decent emergency shelter anywhere in the world.

This is excellent! I would love to invest in this company. Do you think the design will ever incorporate some kind of window, even small slats?

I am interested to be representative for EXO Shelters for South America.

How long are users expected to be able to live in the EXO units comfortably?
Nocturn April 7, 2013 at 6:57 pm
According to the manufacturer's website, the floorspace is 76 sq. ft. The interior height is 8'3″, and the exterior height (floorplate included) is 9′. No idea about purchasing. Seems like a pretty good idea though.
tyiam May 26, 2012 at 1:15 am
What is the floor size of one unit? How tall is the unit? Is it possible to buy one unit?
Many thanks,
Anara January 13, 2012 at 10:05 am
Nice things. I wish people from Katutura in Namibia would live in something like that instead of their shakes, made from riffled metal sheets.

Curling brushes: the Low Down on Carbon Fiber
Posted on February 19, 2013 by PaiviIn an earlier blog post, we outlined the primary differences in curling brushes, with one of the first items mentioned being the material comprising the brush shaft. Typically brush shafts are made of carbon fiber or fiberglass, or some combination of the two. If we were to draw an analogy with cars, a 100% carbon fiber brush would be the Cadillac, while brushes with shafts containing fiberglass would be considered your basic Volkswagon.

Thanks for all the comments guys,
You can't go on any fantasy forum without people talking about WoT, and I had noticed that it is generally seen in a very positive way.
Some comments I hear (even on this post) is that people have tended to have read it when they were younger and have such fond memories of it. I think that's why I never got round to reading it before because I thought somehow I had missed the boat and wouldn't enjoy it now (I'm in my 30's now) :-(
So am 5 chapters in, enjoying it so far. the prologue was very intriguing. Is there a reference for time in years, like for example how many years before the current events did the prelude occur.
Stand out characters so far have got to be Mat and the Gleeman Thom??
Anyway so far so good and a nice change of tone from Erikson (read forge of darkness before this and it is very heavy on the philosphy!!)

The prologue is set about 3000 years before the events in the series.

I've been torn over whether or not to read WoT for years...along with the Malazan series. These stories are just ridiculously long, and from what I hear of Malazan, the ending wasn't quite up to snuff. I'll probably wait till after the last WoT book comes out and see how it's reviewed to see if I really want to commit to a series of this size, with a well known, several book slump in the middle.
September 20th, 2012, 08:44 AM #19
Both have their moments of being an amazing series though. I don't yet know how WoT is going to end, but Sanderson has done better than expected. He revived the series, and then some. I am 1/2 way through the last SE book, The Crippled God. The last few books have been awesome! So I don't expect the final book to be anything but. And as to your quote about it being "not quite up to snuff". I have not heard that at all. I have actually heard mostly the opposite that many have liked it, and it was a "fitting ending". Or the ending most people wanted. An ending for the readers. ..well see though!
I don't know which one I would rank higher. I would recommend reading both. They are both HUGE undertakings though. It took me awhile myself to get the courage to start Malazan simply because I was afraid of starting a 14+ book series. I am very glad I did though.

Maybe the forerunner to the extended, elaborate world-building series of which there are a number today. And fairly original world as well. (Don't be put off by the Tolkienesque first book.) Quite a lot of interesting anthropological details - check out how he thinks through how the White Tower, Aiel and Seanchan societies would be organised.
Decent plotting, epic in scale; a little slow for me, but no slower than Martin or Erikson until you hit book 7 or 8ish.
If you're sensitive to characterisation that is either bland or annoying and repetitive, prepare yourself.

I feel that both Nynaeve and Elayne were exceptionally annoying, particularly around books 6-10. Elayne more so in book 9 and 10, since Nynaeve was not in those two as much.

Ok, so up to chapter 17. Still enjoying it, a little slow but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
One thing I've just read that I don't get is that The wisdom has just told Rand about how she can remember his father returning to the village with a new wife and baby, which makes him realise he was born outside of the the two rivers. But the first few chapters told us that the Wisdom is very young and only a couple of years older then Rand. It seemed like she was telling it as if she was a wiser older woman, yet she could only have been 2 or 3 at the most!!! Is this a RAFO or just a mistake?

Tor Re-Read. **REMOVED AS IT CONTAINS SPOILERS**
Wot Character info. This website is AMAZING for WoT. There are a lot of characters, and sometimes people show up and you think "who is she, how do I know her, what has she done?". This website tells you what they have done UP TO THIS POINT. So it never spoils you. Select the book you are reading.
I would recommend reading both website and utilizing them starting on Book2. At the very least bookmark the Character Info site. It helped me soooo much.

Heart murmurs are abnormal sounds during your heartbeat cycle — such as whooshing or swishing — made by turbulent blood in or near your heart. These sounds can be heard with a stethoscope. A normal heartbeat makes two sounds like "lubb-dupp" (sometimes described as "lub-DUP"), which are the sounds of your heart valves closing.
Heart murmurs can be present at birth (congenital) or develop later in life. A heart murmur isn't a disease — but murmurs may indicate an underlying heart problem.
Most heart murmurs are harmless (innocent) and don't need treatment. Some heart murmurs may require follow-up tests to be sure the murmur isn't caused by a serious underlying heart condition. Treatment, if needed, is directed at the cause of your heart murmurs.
If you have a harmless heart murmur, more commonly known as an innocent heart murmur, you likely won't have any other signs or symptoms.
An abnormal heart murmur may cause no obvious other signs, aside from the unusual sound your doctor hears when listening to your heart with a stethoscope. But if you have these signs or symptoms, they may indicate a heart problem:
Most heart murmurs aren't serious, but if you think you or your child has a heart murmur, make an appointment to see your family doctor. Your doctor can tell you if your heart murmur is innocent and doesn't require any further treatment or if an underlying heart problem needs to be further examined.
There are two types of heart murmurs: innocent murmurs and abnormal murmurs. A person with an innocent murmur has a normal heart. This type of heart murmur is common in newborns and children.
An abnormal heart murmur is more serious. In children, abnormal murmurs are usually caused by congenital heart disease. In adults, abnormal murmurs are most often due to acquired heart valve problems.
An innocent murmur can occur when blood flows more rapidly through the heart. Conditions that may cause rapid blood flow through your heart, resulting in an innocent heart murmur, are:
Changes to the heart due to aging or heart surgery may also cause an innocent heart murmur. Innocent heart murmurs may disappear over time, or they may last your entire life without ever causing further health problems.
Although most heart murmurs aren't serious, some may result from a heart problem. The most common cause of abnormal murmurs in children is when babies are born with structural problems of the heart (congenital heart defect). Common congenital defects that cause heart murmurs include:
Other causes of abnormal heart murmurs include infections and conditions that damage the structures of the heart and are more common in older children or adults. For example:
There aren't any risk factors for developing an innocent heart murmur.
There are risk factors that increase your chance of having an underlying condition that can cause a heart murmur from birth. These include:
Factors that can increase your risk of a heart murmurs later in life include:
If you think you or your child has a heart murmur, make an appointment to see your family doctor. Although most heart murmurs are harmless, it's a good idea to rule out any underlying heart problems that could be serious.
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be prepared for your appointment. Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment and know what to expect from your doctor.
Your time with the doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions can help you make the most of your time together. For heart murmurs, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
Heart murmurs are usually detected when your doctor listens to your heart using a stethoscope during a physical exam.
To check whether the murmur is innocent or abnormal, your doctor will consider:
Your doctor will also look for other signs and symptoms of heart problems and ask about your medical history and whether other family members have had heart murmurs or other heart conditions.
If the doctor thinks the heart murmur is abnormal, you or your child may need additional tests including:
Transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiogram. This exam, which includes an ultrasound of your chest, shows detailed images of your heart's structure and function. Ultrasound waves are transmitted, and their echoes are recorded with a device called a transducer that's held outside your body. A computer uses the information from the transducer to create moving images on a video monitor. This test identifies abnormal heart valves, such as those that are hardened (calcified) or leaking, and can also detect most heart defects.
If the images from a transthoracic echocardiogram are unclear, the doctor may recommend a transesophageal ultrasound. During this exam, a flexible tube containing a small transducer about the size of your index finger is guided down your throat. The transducer will transmit images of your heart to a computer monitor. Since the esophagus passes close behind your heart, the transesophageal transducer can produce better images than can sound waves transmitted through your chest.
Cardiac computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These tests can help diagnose heart problems and detect heart murmurs. In a cardiac CT scan, you lie on a table inside a doughnut-shaped machine. An X-ray tube inside the machine rotates around your body and collects images of your heart and chest.
In a cardiac MRI, you lie on a table inside a long tube-like machine that produces a magnetic field. The magnetic field aligns atomic particles in some of your cells. When radio waves are broadcast toward these aligned particles, they produce signals that vary according to the type of tissue they are. Images of your heart are created from these signals, which your doctor will look at to determine the cause of your heart murmur.
An innocent heart murmur generally doesn't require treatment because the heart is normal. If innocent murmurs are the result of an illness, such as fever or hyperthyroidism, the murmurs will go away once that condition is treated.
If you or your child has an abnormal heart murmur, treatment may not be necessary. Your doctor may want to monitor the condition over time. If treatment is necessary, it depends on what heart problem is causing the murmur and may include medications or surgery.
The medication your doctor prescribes depends on the specific heart problem you have. Some medications your doctor might give you:
Surgical or catheterization options also depend on your specific heart problem. Although open-heart surgery may be needed, sometimes the cause of the heart murmur is treated by inserting a catheter through an artery in your groin and threading the catheter through your veins to your heart to treat your condition (cardiac catheterization). Examples of procedures include:
Doctors used to recommend that most people with abnormal heart murmurs take antibiotics before visiting the dentist or having surgery. That's usually not the case anymore. Most people with heart murmurs won't need antibiotics. If you have questions about whether or not you should take antibiotics, talk to your doctor.
While there's not much you can do to prevent a heart murmur, it is reassuring to know that heart murmurs are not a disease and are often harmless. For children, many murmurs go away on their own as they grow. For adults, murmurs may disappear as the underlying condition causing them improves.
