4 x DMC World Champion and 2 x UK beatbox Champion Reeps One have combined forces to manifest a new paradigm in the creation of bass. Witness the MC and the DJ converge in a free form musical matrix where performance and technique are perfectly balanced with explosive precision. Two pioneers from two generations of musical evolution apply their awesome abilities to the sounds of dubstep, hip hop and drum n bass and raw adrenalin in a free form aural assault unlike anything that has gone before.
The Bass Bizarre world tour is DJ Qbert's most musically diverse performance project to date. It represents a new chapter in his never ending quest to break down artistic boundaries and extend the potential of sound quality and musical experience. Recognized as one of the most interesting and powerful beatboxers on the globe, Reeps One's totally unique, purist approach is what makes him stand out so boldly from the pack, delivering a complexity in technique and a depth of substance that completes the Bass Bizarre sound.For more information on this ground breaking new project hit www.bassbizarre.com .

Ever wondered how ballet dancers achieve their form? If so, maybe it's time you tried Barre Fitness, an exercise regimen that promises to tone, trim and transform your body.
Ella Jotie, the co-founder of the Barre Fitness studio in Vancouver, describes it as an "efficient one-hour workout that combines the best elements of ballet bar, Pilates, sports conditioning and stretching."
A Barre Fitness class looks and feels different from your average fitness program. In each class, participants spend the majority of their time next to a classical ballet bar, repeating small, focused motions that are very low impact but also very intense.
"We get to the point in the muscle where it is working its hardest and we get to fatigue it there," Jotie says. "That's when you get to see the change in the body because we're actually changing the form of the muscles."
The regimen was developed from the famous bar method popularized by ballerina-turned-fitness icon Lotte Berk in the 1940s. Berk's method was based on targeting muscles, not joints, as a way of staying fit and becoming strong while rehabilitating from injury.
Continuing in this tradition of making the dancer's physique achievable for the masses, Barre Fitness emphasizes three central techniques: posture, breath and alignment. The combination of the three challenges the body to exert itself in the most efficient way possible.
That focus and that efficiency are what make Barre as effective as it is. "We work the muscle to its absolute best or absolute last little fibre," Jotie says. "That's where you see the change."
It may not look like much is happening, but step up to the bar and you'll soon realize how tough a workout it is. Exhausting though it is, Jotie promises the results are there for the taking.
"Barre Fitness will get you a dancer's body without the dancing."

Where do these fracking protesters think energy is going to come from?
If oil and gas are there in the South, then let the country benefit
It's an unlikely coalition.
Bianca Jagger, Natalie Hynde – daughter of the rock star Chrissie – and the odd grey-suited City commuter ("Lloyd's broker says no") are marching as one. Their common cause: to obstruct and if possible prevent the drilling for oil near the West Sussex town of Balcombe. The slogans on some of the placards are less polite than that of the Lloyd's man (and also less literate): "Get the Frack out of Sussex" and "Frack you! You fracking frackers".
Oddly enough, the exploratory well being drilled by the energy company Cuadrilla does not involve "hydraulic fracking" – the breaking open of tight petroliferous rock formations by high-pressure injections of water and surfactants. It's a single six-inch diameter well down to a depth of 2,500 feet; and if the flow from it is good (by no means certain) then future production will not require "fracking" either.
Yet such technical details will not deflect the demonstrators, whether motivated by sentimental soil-worship or a more hard-headed concern about the effect of drilling on local property prices. They just believe passionately that it's grossly inappropriate to have a major extractive industry doing its business in this lovely part of England, the High Weald. They believe it; but they are wrong.
I know a bit about this, as I have lived in the High Weald for the past 16 years. The water running past our house has a distinctive rusty colour – caused by high iron content in the clay subsoil. The Romans – being industrious fellows – started the iron-working industry in this part of England. This extractive process grew in size and scale as the demand for iron expanded, most notably for the manufacture of cannons and the balls which we fired at sundry European enemies (such as the Spanish Armada). In eyeshot as I write this stands a derelict mill which harnessed the stream to power the furnaces; behind me is one of the Wealden forests – Dallington – which supplied the charcoal for smelting.
When I amble through it, I sometimes come across the hollows of the old charcoal pits. If I walk a little further, no more than a mile or two, I am at the heart of a still-active extractive operation, owned by British Gypsum. This land, while part of a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, contains the country's largest reserve of calcium sulphate, used to make plasterboard. The local miners run a 24-hour operation, although there are now only about 100 of them, a tenth of their number during the peak years of drilling.
Their controlled explosions 300 or so feet below the surface are just the sort of practice which, if said to be new or proposed, would bring the righteous wrath of Bianca Jagger and Natalie Hynde down on us – and doubtless also demonstrations by City-bound commuter residents. Yet there is not the slightest blight on local property prices, even if those nearest the British Gypsum mine occasionally complain about noisy machinery, as the extracted rock is transported by conveyer belt and onwards via a dedicated railway (just as it has been since the 1880s). Further afield, nearer Tunbridge Wells, stood the vast Highbrooms Brickworks, where the rich reddish Wealden clay was fired to provide the basic physical structure of countless housing booms.
The point is that the High Weald was never more than marginal in what people seem to regard as the sole traditional role of the countryside – farming. Its contours and villages, now seen as purely bucolic, are in fact the legacy of a vibrant industrial past. As so often in the English landscape, what seems "natural" is in fact anything but. The visible structure of the Wealden communities, with their churches, post offices and filigree criss-crossing of roads, is the residual superstructure of the human exploitation of natural resources harnessed for the sole benefit of man: just like the oil and gas which Cuadrilla is working to find and develop.
Nowadays, of course, the High Weald of Kent, East Sussex and West Sussex, is no longer the industrial heart of the country – as it had been before the coal revolution. Now the great majority of working residents commute to their place of employment – London, most obviously. This is an energy-intensive process, especially if they are using cars to get to the "big smoke" – although trains also rely on electricity, which is overwhelmingly reliant on fossil fuels for its generation.
The City-commuting residents demonstrating ("Lloyd's broker says no") against the Balcombe oilwell are therefore singularly lacking in economic self-awareness. Their very way of life depends on cheap, secure and plentiful energy: exactly what Cuadrilla is in the business of providing. That used to mean coal – conveniently located, for the most part, hundreds of miles away from the London commuter belt. Yet if oil and gas (which incidentally produce much less Co2 than coal per unit of energy produced) are in plentiful supply down South, why should the country as a whole be denied its benefits? The outraged of Balcombe are put to shame by an 11-year-old local called Phoebe who told a visiting reporter that she was "for fracking" having "done a project on it" at Balcombe Primary School: "I want energy for television and internet".
The protesters doubtless imagine – or would like us to imagine – that a gas or oilfield would somehow blight the entire region. They will dismiss as merely self-interested propaganda the insistence last week by Cuadrilla's chief executive Francis Egan that 100 shale gas production sites of the sort his firm aims to build could produce enough to supply a third of the UK's annual gas demand while occupying only "a total area of just two square kilometres". Egan (who has received death threats from one especially outraged opponent of fracking) added that "suitably screened by trees, the sites would be invisible to passers-by".
Hard though it might be for the likes of Bianca Jagger and Natalie Hynde to believe, this is the truth. If you doubt it, consider that the largest onshore oilfield in Europe has been discreetly situated in an area much more ecologically sensitive than the High Weald. The Wytch Farm oilfield, discovered by the British Gas Corporation in 1973 in the Purbeck district of Dorset, has production facilities hidden in a coniferous forest on the southern shore of Poole Harbour. Its reservoir – which at peak output in 1997 was producing an extraordinary 110,000 barrels of oil a day – extends below the exquisite Studland peninsula: so this monster of an oilfield has been inconspicuously exploited at the heart of a world heritage site, a designated area of outstanding natural beauty and of several nature reserves.
It should reassure anxious Balcombe residents who told reporters that "prices of homes here will inevitably go down here" that values around Poole Harbour have not been in the tiniest bit depressed by the presence of the Wytch Farm oil production facilities: indeed, apart from the stucco terraces of Kensington and Chelsea, this is the most expensive stretch of real estate in the whole country.
Besides, it would be fitting for the High Weald to get back to its old business.

First Look: I Am Legend Starring Will Smith
I Am Legend, opening in December, looks like another apocalyptic Will Smith movie, though any details beyond that are vague. From this new trailer, it looks like something wipes out all of New York City — except for Will Smith and his dog, though IMDB has a more informative plot description: "Robert Neville is the last man alive. He busies himself with preparing for a nightly attack from the rest of the world — all of which have transformed into blood-thirsty vampires."
I do wish there were a little more meat to this trailer for I Am Legend — especially if there are vampires involved — though it's still eerie to see such an abandoned New York City, and the idea of being left alone in that environment is pretty terrifying.

But you can't just fly on that alone, especially if the surgery is a highly complex one. Your smart-patient detective job is to find out if this is the most excellent surgeon you can choose for this particular operation. Ask your doctor for a few names, and investigate each.
Also, aside from asking your regular doctor to point you to the maestro of this surgery, doing Internet research can help you locate a hyper-specialized surgeon. You just have to hope that one works at your hospital, or you might be planning a road trip.
A good way to find a highly specialized surgeon is to look in medical studies.

Don't use Hola anymore: https://torrentfreak.com/netflix-cracks-down-on-vpn-and-proxy-pirates-150103/
I feel so bad for the guy on the right in that second ad! His shoe caught on fire!!
#10 is just a realistic tile mosaic of boobs.
The letter R appears twice in that poster.
Why do you need to make a video that's just a list of recipes…?
This is what I was going to point out. However, the article does not anywhere state that Kamm is being descriptive, while the "grammar pedants" are being prescriptive. They are indeed two different approaches, so to have an article where you are basically saying "the people of the prescriptive approach are wrong, and I'm going to prove it by using a descriptive approach" is counter intuitive.
I think that is not the same creature. Just a picture of an alive, in-tact one for reference… the head doesn't even look the same.
#33 looks like a great way for my dog to even more easily get into the garbage.
That one isn't as bad as the others. They missed the apostrophe in "tomorrow's hangover"
I needed an indifferent option for some of these. Never watched Friends and don't know the "serial" podcast.
So sometimes the answer is "yes" when it's "incredibly rare" but sometimes the answer is "no" because it's "incredibly rare"?
I don't think you know what "asymmetrical" means.
Uh, how is a live action film composed of characters who are mostly wild animals gonna work? Terrible, excessive CGI?
I like how he has a book called "Joe Hill" because that's the pen name his son goes by.
#13 - Ariel??
100% of these movies feel like they are 10 years old. In fact, it's more surprising that some of them are only 10 years old.
Now I have way too many expectations if I receive a box with an obviously easily removable lid…
I can only imagine how weird and dated all those branded logos will be in 10 years.
"Some surprising major offenders include pasta sauce, salad dressing, low-fat yogurts, and protein bars, to name a few." Why is that surprising? Sugar cuts the acidic levels in pasta sauce, yogurt and protein bars are sweet, as are many salad dressings.
I feel like this quiz is mostly geared towards males. What girl doesn't have a collarless shirt? Or anyone who has a t-shirt… ?
Why would you title your post "Do you like pulp?" (Yes = Pulp is good; no = pulp is bad) but then have the question reversed (Yes = pulp is bad; no = pulp is good)?? What?
#1 looks like Joel McHale, if he were a demented puppet.
uggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i thought we already established that fireball does not have "antifreeze" in it, and that the common ingredient is totally safe and used in several other food items and approved by the FDA. That's like saying that we shouldn't drink water because it is also an ingredient in antifreeze.
Wouldn't rotate (even though it autorotated itself the wrong way from the file anyway) but this is Reese!
I would have done things like the library scene in Ghostbusters. Stack random books in piles, etc, and then hid as it came time for the shop to open.
Probably just because it's cheap and easy to make.
I'm assuming Sydney, Australia. Isn't it supposed to be springtime there?
"18 Gadget Gift Ideas for People who Like to Spend $500 on Gifts" Fixed that for you.
I would totally get one if they weren't so expensive. And if I actually had kitchen space to use it.
#7 Alright, who stole Europe?
Some of the books on this list blow my mind. I went to private Catholic schools for my entire education up to college, and half of these books were required reading, like I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, The Giver, and my fifth grade class was read the first Harry Potter book, including the spare profanities.
#15 has two independent clauses separated by a conjunction.
The speed of the gifs gave me a headache.
Wasn't the girl who played Miranda arrested for meth use/production?
The Benedict Cumberbatch thing doesn't work on me. I have to sing the original song in my head before adding his name. And I have to remember what song he said to use.

Terzani Tresor Light Ceiling Lamp
About the ManufacturerWorking to redefine the way luxury lighting is conceived and made, Terzani has been combining traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern technology since it was founded in Florence in 1972. Sergio Terzani's original vision was to create handmade lighting that blurs the lines between art, luxury and design. The resulting pieces are sculptural and beautiful, upholding longstanding traditions of metal and glass work, with a meticulous eye for design detail. Sergio's son, Nicolas Terzani, joined the company as CEO and, with input from his father, has continued to innovate with the creation of the Terzani Lab, where new lighting ideas can be developed and tested. While many of the designs are created in-house by Terzani's experienced design team, they also collaborate with renowned designers like Dodo Arlsan, Nigel Coates, Maurizio Galante and Christian Lava, Studio 14 and Luca Martorano + Mattia Albicini.

President Obama, during a Ramadan dinner at the White House, expressed his support for the First Amendment.

Acreage of a Christian nudist colony under development in Florida:
Continuing Care, Inc. (Venice, Fla.)
Florida's wildlife officials decided to remove the manatee, which has a mild taste that readily adapts to recipes for beef, from the state's endangered-species list.
A 64-year-old mother and her 44-year-old son were arrested for running a gang that stole more than $100,000 worth of toothbrushes from Publix, Walmart, Walgreens, and CVS stores in Florida.

Officials of the Bradley County SPCA on Wednesday afternoon responded to a call involving some 200 dogs. It turned out there were 237 dogs in deplorable conditions at what was termed a "puppy mill."
The SPCA answered a call on Candies Creek Road in the McDonald area from the Bradley County Sheriff's Department.
Rescuers had to wear masks due to the stench at the site.
A number of "pocket" beagles were crowded into small pens.
Area rescuers were volunteering to take some of the dogs.
Officials said, "We are requesting the public's assistance as we respond to this case."
"What we need:
"2) Adoptions. We have several wonderful dogs and cats already at the shelter!
"3) Supplies! Please bring bowls, leashes, crates, dog food, etc. to the shelter.
"4) We need volunteers on the ground to help feed, water and exercise our current guests, to do laundry and more. Please email firstname.lastname@example.com before going. That way we can make sure volunteers are scheduled to cover all shifts.
"The shelter is closed the remainder of today for intakes. The shelter does remain open for adoptions.
"The beagles will not be made immediately available for adoption. We are working with rescues around the country to find them safe places."

Washington Mutual Enhances Home Equity Line of Credit Product to Provide Greater Payment Flexibility; Allows Consumers to Make Interest Only Payments on a Fixed-Rate Loan Option.
"This new feature gives consumers greater control in managing their monthly payments and cash flow, allowing them to adapt to various life and financial needs," said Jennifer Myhre, Washington Mutual senior vice president of consumer lending. "The WaMu Equity Plus(TM) account and this new enhancement combine the flexibility of a line of credit with the stability of a fixed-rate loan. To our knowledge it is the most flexible product like it available on the market, and we are making it available to both new customers and existing customers who already have a WaMu Equity Plus(TM) account with us."
The new feature allows customers to choose a three-, five-, seven- or 10-year fixed term with a fixed interest rate and make interest only monthly payments. At maturity of the fixed period, the balance automatically converts to the variable line with a minimum payment of interest only. Customers can then leave the balance on the variable line or convert to another fixed-rate loan option at current rates.
New enhancement makes a great product even better
"Ultimately, our WaMu Equity Plus(TM) account along with this new feature gives customers more payment options than ever before, which is especially useful in today's changing interest rate environment," added Myhre. Furthermore, borrowers can finance up to 89.9 percent of the value of their home with a maximum loan amount of $750,000.
Borrowers may exercise up to two fixed-rate loan options on their WaMu Equity Plus(TM) account within the calendar year, with up to five outstanding -- although customers can only have one interest only option at any given time. A combined monthly statement summarizes the credit line and any fixed-rate loan options. Furthermore, the process is streamlined and borrowers do not need to reapply in order to tap into their home equity. Likewise, the fee to set up a fixed-rate option is only $50, although the first one is free and there is no fee if a borrower is moving a fixed rate loan amount back to the variable line of credit.
About Washington Mutual
Washington Mutual is one of the nation's leading consumer and small business banks. At March 31, 2006, Washington Mutual and its subsidiaries had assets of $348.67 billion. The company was established in 1889 and currently operates more than 2,600 consumer and small business banking stores throughout the nation.

The process of underwriting for auto insurance policies involves many steps, accounting for a number of risk variables. The vehicle specifications are just one piece to consider when assessing risk. Some others include client demographics, geography, and driving history to name a few.
As the variety of available vehicle safety equipment continues to increase, so does their effect on insurance risk ratings. With the large number of tasks at hand, it's important that underwriters utilize resources that can save them time and increase process accuracy.Read More

Three People Hurt in Colorado Duplex Fire
BOULDER, Colo. --
Twenty-five firefighters from the Boulder Fire Department put out a blaze at a duplex at 408 and 410 Arapahoe Ave. Monday. The communication center got multiple 911 calls around 3:12 a.m.
When firefighters got there, the duplex at 410 Arapahoe Ave. was engulfed in flames.
Five adults were inside. One was flown to University Hospital to be treated for severe burns. Two others were transported to Boulder Community Hospital to be evaluated for smoke inhalation.
Firefighters pulled ceilings and knocked down walls to make sure there were no hot spots inside.
Investigators said it's too early to say what caused the fire, or estimate damages to the building.

"Sure, why not? I am the token black guy. I'm just supposed to smile and stay out of the conversation and say things like: 'Damn,' 'Shit,' and 'That is wack.'"
— Malik, Not Another Teen Movie
"True dat ya'll indeed, inevitable black gang member!"
— Yamagata, The American Akira
"You people are disgusting! You don't care about real diversity. This is nothing but...but tokenism!"
— Black Panthernote , Wha...Huh?
"I'm the only one here who's not white!"
"Chill Factor is another example of [Cuba] Gooding being cast in the role of token black sidekick. You know, the gratingly annoying kind of sidekick complete with stock phrases like 'Aw hell nah!' and almost racially offensive overtones. I dont want to dig too deep into motivations, but it is a little sad that a movie capitalizing on Cubas success sees him not as the hero of the movie, but the wisecracking shrill comic relief.
—Miles Antwiler' on Chill Factor (1999)
"On the surface of it, Voyager has a very diverse cast. The captain is a woman; the first officer is a Native American; the operations officer is Asian. Even the aliens are diverse. Tuvok is a Vulcan played by an African American; Torres is half-Klingon, but her human half is latina. It feels like it continues the trend set by Deep Space Nine of featuring a diverse ensemble, with a particular emphasis on the female captain. So, by rights, Caretaker should feel like a celebration of diversity, right? Unfortunately, not. Despite the fact that the show has a wonderful diverse central cast, Caretaker is very clearly built around the one white male American character in the group...His middle name is even 'Eugene', in a nod to Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry. Its worth noting that Tom Paris would be one of the handful of Voyager characters to actually get a character arc spanning the series, and whose character development by Endgame involves a bit more than the sentence ' is now seven years older.'"
—Darren Mooney on Star Trek: Voyager, "Caretaker"
