In case you don't understand, that means in April, I played my first C tourney, got to finals and lost. By Oct., went 3 round in Pleasanton's A/Open.
If you wish, I can list a pretty high level of players who were my practice partners, my g/f's, or my buds, starting when I was a less than 3.5 ...CeciMartinez, a former top 10 ranked US woman's player.
I've re-checked my reading comprehension skills. They are fine
I don't think we're saying quite the same thing. I am saying no 4.5 will take a game from any top 100 WTA woman unless he lucks out and hits 3 aces in a game. You are mentioning "SETS" as a possibility (although remote possibility). I am saying sets are NOT a possibility...ever.
I am taking it further and also saying that any 14-15 yo girl who has realistic chances of making it to the WTA will mop the floor with any 4.5. The 4.5 will win games, but not sets, unless the kid has a really bad day and is also being "childish" in her choices.
Any 14-15 yo BOY who has realistic chances of making it to the ATP, will beat 4.5's 12-0, 18-0, 24-0 ...etc in 90 percent of their matches. Again...4.5's with huge serves might get isolated games if they luck out and hit aces. Otherwise...fat chance.

Nah...I play competitively but still in amateur leagues, similar to the ones you have. Not a sandbagger, just passionate about tennis and more aware about these NTRP ratings and what they mean than many Americans (it seems)

I have been offered water, cookies, meals, beverages, snacks and a ride — all of which I turned down.
I have been ignored, thanked, complimented, scorned and yelled at.
I have communicated in person and by telephone, in English and in my very-scripted pigeon Spanish.
I am an enumerator for the U.S. Census Bureau.
I knock on doors and make phone calls to ask people personal questions about their households.
I am one of the many people who landed the temporary census jobs counting people where they live most of the year.
If more people mailed back their forms by the April 1 deadline, I would not have the job.
But, despite widespread publicity about the census, 47.2 million households out of 130 million nationwide did not return forms.
To get the count completed, the U.S. Department of Commerce hired 585,729 temporary workers — including 39,962 in the Detroit Region of Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia, the Census Bureau reported. By early July, that number was down to 15,408.
A quality crew
I joined the Census Bureau's work force last spring, after my job ended at The Grand Rapids Press.
The crew I work with, based in Allendale and Jenison, includes men and women from 19 years old to nearly retirement age.
The quality of the workers is a definite nod to the state's current 13-plus percent unemployment rate: Work was done efficiently and at high ebb. Most members, like me, were unemployed, underemployed or seeking extra cash. Many simply were looking to give something back.
It has been my pleasure to work with all kinds of interesting people.
There was a Grand Valley State University grad and sculptor who was — and will again be — an ArtPrize entrant. There also was a former computer science instructor, human resources administrator, manufacturing specialist, construction manager, salesman, pastor and college students.
Not exactly your stereotypical temporary work force.
In fact, the Census Bureau's temps have been so productive, it closed some offices earlier than planned. Census Director Robert Groves anticipates saving $170 million from the $2.2 billion budget allocated for door-to-door questioning.
Michigan in the top 5
In census lingo, the door-to-door phase is called NRFU, or non-response follow-up.
While the national response rate for Census forms was 72 percent, Michigan was among the five states with the best rates, coming in at 77 percent.
Wisconsin was tops at 81 percent, Minnesota had 80 percent and Indiana and Iowa had 78 percent.
At a city level with populations of 50,000 or more, Livonia led the nation with an 87 percent response rate.
My Jenison neighborhood beat that with 92 percent, but the Allendale locales I worked in recorded 74 percent.
By comparison, however, the Grand Rapids neighborhoods I worked averaged 64 percent response rates.
Counting people is important not just for the government but for the states, communities and citizens.
The updated numbers help determine how more than $400 billion in federal funds will be spent on infrastructure and services, including education, health care, job training, senior services, roads and public safety.
The crew I work with has been like a special forces unit, tracking down people since April 29. After four days of training at Polkton Township Hall near Coopersville, we were sent out, armed with pens, a few No. 2 pencils, erasers and a satchel.
I also carry a badge.
Filling in the blanks
At times, it has been simple — done with one visit.
Other times, well, it has involved considerable shoe-leather, leave-no-stone-unturned efforts, necessitating instinct, resourcefulness, common sense and determination.
For instance, after canvassing one apartment complex for days, I was unable to reach anyone in dozens of units. So, I spent nearly two hours with a very helpful and amiable manager gathering details and information to reach elusive people.
I spent the better part of two weeks in the complex.
At some addresses, I tried as many as a half-dozen times in person or by telephone to get someone who can fill me in.
At residences where I could not find anyone, I left notices with contact information.
While answers usually are provided by a homeowner, resident or landlord, I have tapped neighbors and other knowledgeable proxies for accurate information.
My job is to find everyone, including college students, snowbirds, migrant workers and visitors from other countries.
Different reactions
When I found folks, getting the answers to the 10 questions took less than 10 minutes. But I'll never tell what they said. I took an oath to protect their answers and privacy for 72 years.
Not everyone is happy when enumerators visit. Many are upset with how "nosey" the federal government is. Some of my colleagues have been threatened with a call to the authorities.
However, the reality is that, every 10 years, the federal government must do this and has done it since 1790.
The Constitution mandates counting everyone in the United States, regardless, and there is still counting to be done.
The census can keep tallying until Dec. 31.
So, each day, I pack my satchel, grab my badge and continue to knock on doors.

Corporate headquarters
Corporate headquarters is the part of a corporate structure that deals with important tasks such as strategic planning, corporate communications, taxes, law, marketing, finance, human resources, and information technology.[6] Corporate headquarters takes responsibility for the overall success of the corporation, ensures Corporate Governance. It is sometimes referred to the head office, which is the location where the executives of a business work and where many of the key business decisions are made. Generally, corporate headquarters acts as a core when the business is operating. The corporate headquarters includes: the CEO (Chief Executive Officer) as a key person and their support staff such as the CEO office and other CEO related functions; the "Corporate policy making" functions: Include all corporate functions necessary to steer the firm by defining and establishing corporate policies; the Corporate Services: Activities that combine or consolidate certain enterprise-wide needed support services, provided based on specialized knowledge, best practices, and technology to serve internal (and sometimes external) customers and business partners; the Interface: Reporting line and bi-directional link between corporate headquarters and business units.[7] Most other divisions and branches report to the corporate headquarters and staff may visit there periodically for training or other instructions" (Kimberly: 2014: 22).[8] The corporate services are often relocated into a separate legal entity called Shared Services Center.[9]
Locations of corporate headquarters[edit]
Corporate headquarters is considered a business' most prestigious location. A corporation's headquarters may also bring prestige to the city it is located in and help attract other businesses to the area.Businesses frequently locate their corporate headquarters in large cities, such as New York, because of the greater business opportunities available there.[10] The corporate headquarters may or may not be in the location in which the business is incorporated or where the majority of its employees work. Offices of a business that are not the corporate headquarters are called "branch offices"(Carter, 1994). The headquarters is often selected by the founders of the company to be conveniently located to where they live. Branch offices may then be opened, either locally, within the country or internationally. Companies, however, generally do not have two corporate headquarters, even if they are international companies, although they may have branches that take on some of the responsibility for making corporate decisions in other countries. For example, if a company is headquartered in New York but has an office in London, the company may assign a specific location in London to act as the London headquarters and to perform the tax function and legal compliance function within the United Kingdom.[11]
Roles of corporate headquarters[edit]
Public company functions[edit]
Most of the multi-business firms have their corporate headquarters performs obligatory functions. It represents all businesses legally in respect of the regulator(s) and aggregates the financial, tax, and legal data. Similarly, the corporate headquarters can also function as the company's face to the customer and build reputational value.[12]
Shared services are services provided by the corporate headquarters for various business units. Owing to the aggregation of demand for these services, the headquarters can realize scale effects and provide them at lower total costs. Typical shared services are HR, IT, and marketing services.[13]
value creation[edit]
In contrast to the first two roles, the "value creation role" of the corporate headquarters is more entrepreneurial in nature.[14] It is considered the major source of corporate advantages and key in justifying the configuration of diversified companies.[15] It comprises various horizontal and vertical coordination activities, such as the leveraging of the synergy potential and the application of management innovation.[16]
The "control role" of the corporate headquarter guides the operations of the individual businesses toward the corporate goals. It can either focus on the financial outcome, or the operational behaviour, with both options implying very different approaches and requirements in terms of data and operations.[17]
Consequences brought by scaling corporate headquarters[edit]
Corporate headquarter change | Potential advantages | Potential disadvantages |
Scalling corporate headquarter up | #1.Increased coordination and synergy realization #2.Build up of corporate headquarters capabilities #3.Compliance with regulatory requirements | #1.Additional overheads and costs #2.Bureaucracy and inappropriate interference #3.Value destruction |
No change | #1.Stability at the top: stable processes and networks #2.Low risk of organisational disruption #3.No additional costs | #1.Misalignment between internal and external environment #2.Breeds impression of inactivity in the business units |
Scalling corporate headquarter down | #1.Reduction of overhead and cost savings #2.Reduction of bureaucracy and interference #3.Clarification of responsibilities | #1.Restructuring costs #2.Deterioration of headquarters' capabilities #3.Harmful reduction in corporate capabilities and networks[18] |

Special Correspondent
NEW DELHI: Assam Rifles put up a disappointing show in succumbing to Mohammedan Sporting 0-2 in a group `A' pre-quarterfinal league match of the Osian's Durand Cup football tournament at the Ambedkar Stadium here on Friday.
In a well-contested match earlier, Border Security Force stayed in the reckoning with a 1-0 victory over Tata Football Academy.
For TFA coach Ranjan Choudhury, it was a performance that could be categorised as "satisfactory." He insisted the TFA youngsters had a specific role to perform. "They had to learn from this match and that's why I adopted a different strategy today," he said. TFA shed the long-ball tactic of Thursday and played more on the ground, looking to create space by opening the game on the flanks.
BSF had its share of problems. According to coach Avtar Singh, the team was without the services of some players and that had an impact on the overall performance of the side. "I am disappointed because we just did not play to our potential. But a win is a win even though the team played below my expectations. I had to make do with the best options available," Avtar pointed out.
The BSF coach also observed that the ball being used was causing problems too. "The ball is too light and we have had no time to practice with this particular brand before this match," said Avtar.
Sarabjit strikes
The goal for BSF came from Sarabjit from a flag-kick floated by Gurjit Atwal. The TFA goalkeeper spilled the ball in trying to make a collection and Sarabjit just tapped it in. "We ought to have scored more goals," lamented Avtar.Sporting was well organised and did not relent at all. It took the lead through Raman Vijayan's opportunism. A long ball from the right sent Jamir Ali in an attacking frame but his shot was blocked by the Assam Rifles goalkeeper and an alert Vijayan, looking for that half chance, rolled the loose ball in with a gentle tap.
Goal of the day
The goal of the day came a little later through Surojit Roy's brilliant effort. He scurried down the left flank and produced an impeccable floater. Even as the Assam Rifles defence was engaged in putting up resistance, Harvinder Singh, waiting in anticipation, headed in strongly, and perfectly, to sink any hopes that Assam Rifles entertained.

Kingdom | Phylum | Class | Order | Family |
Scientific Name: | Begonia preussii |
Species Authority: | Warb. |
Red List Category & Criteria: | Vulnerable A3c ver 3.1 | |||
Year Published: | 2004 | |||
Date Assessed: | 2004-04-30 | |||
Assessor(s): | Cheek, M. | |||
Reviewer(s): | Hilton-Taylor, C. & Pollock, C.M. (Red List Programme Office) | |||
Justification: This taxon was previously assessed as Endangered (Cable and Cheek 1998) but is here downgraded to Vulnerable in the light of the taxonomic revision by de Wilde (2002) showing it to be more common and widespread in Cameroon than was previously thought. In addition, the discovery of eight further specimens at five sites in Mt Kupe-Bakossi Mts confirms the foregoing. Nonetheless, due to the low altitudinal range of this taxon, habitat loss of about 30% over the next 15 years (estimated as equating to three generations) can be postulated. |
History: |
Range Description: | This species is known from Equatorial Guinea, Bioko (one collection); Cameroon: Edea-Kumba (15 collections); and Nigeria (three collectons). It is closely related to B. oxyanthera. |
Countries: | Native: Cameroon; Equatorial Guinea (Bioko); Nigeria |
Range Map: | Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. |
Habitat and Ecology: | Found in evergreen forest, 850–1,000 m alt. |
Systems: | Terrestrial |
Major Threat(s): | clearance of forest for wood and agricultural land (especially plantations) is a major threat throughout its range and probably accounts for the lack of collections from Bioko in the last century (where forest was largely cleared below 1,000 m alt.). |
Conservation Actions: | This taxon is most likely to survive in lowland forest reserves such as the Bakossi F.R. and Mokoko F.R., but only if their boundaries are respected. Resources need to be found to achieve this. |

Best Male Frontmen
Don't agree with the list? Vote for an existing item you think should be ranked higher or if you are a logged in, add a new item for others to vote on or create your own version of this list.The Top Ten
1Freddie Mercury (Queen)
Once you've seen freddie on stage performing, you are enticed by him and you feel every little emotion that he feels. No one, i repeat NO ONE can or has ever portray the mood of a song like freddie could. He is a legend, and all legends should be admired and praised for what they've accomplished. Even Mike Meyers commented on Freddie by saying 'This is a god who walks as man.' R.I.P. Freddie, we'll never forget...
Freddie Mercury was a remarkable phaenomenon. He sang in various octaves using all his effort. He had a falsetto which could make a deaf person able to hear again. He performed in a unique way using all possible space on stage, making crowds of thousands attendants staring at him for hours. He gained the fans with his personality and despite the fact that he was homosexual he lead a rock band (a classic str8 dream) in such a success that never ever found in other "str8" frontmen. And that says a lot about who deserves the title.
Why is this guy not at the top? He had more stage presence in one hair of his iconic moustache than Jon and the rest of Bon Jovi has combined (and I happen to like Bon Jovi)! His voice and the way it just blended with the instruments of the other band members, the songwriting, the stage theatrics... it all combined to make one heck of a frontman. If you need proof that he's better than Gackt (and I like him/Malice Mizer too) and Jon Bon Jovi, watch Queen's performance at Live Aid.
[Newest]Freddie all the way to one!

2Lauri Ylonen
because it is an excellent songwriter and singer! has one of the most privileged voices and talent fills the air. He has lent his voice to other groups successfully and even composed for a movie. One of the personalities who earns more money in Finland and that has contributed most to the Finnish econimia. Definitely deserves this job!
We vote him because he has such a beautiful voice and when he write a song, he puts all his feelings and open his heart and in combination with the rest of the guys of the band (Aki, Pauli and Eero)they create the best band in this world: THE RASMUS!
he's the best singer and most beautiful so funny and also great person with AKI EERO and PAULI are thes best band THE RASMUS 4ever and after vote for him RASMUSER@S :D he will win I know =)
[Newest]My admiration for this gorgeous man! Great songwriter, singer and person.
3Tom Chaplin (Keane)
Tom's one of the best nowadays Frontmen! For me he's unique! He's a brilliant singer, with such a powerful and stunning vocal range. His Live performances are awesome and magical, his voice sounds exactly as on the records, perhaps even more amazing, as he sings with so much passion and gives his all heart & soul on stage. He's genuine and so very sincere, doesn't hide any emotion and creates with the crowd such an unique bond of complicity and also something even more rare, I believe - a bond of love! Not forgetting that he can sing with the same flawlessness an energetic rock tune or a heavenly ballad - his voice comes directly from heaven, for sure!
Tom's voice is one of the most beautiful, pure and powerful I've ever heard. He is able to brilliantly sing all kinds of songs, to reach the hardes notes, to sound even better live that on records, which is TRULY something nowadays, and to sing for a whole room without even needing a microphone. As if that wasn't enough, he has an incredible stage presence and an amazing way of really connecting with the crowd and of making you feel that you are an important part of the moment.
Tom Chaplin is, in my opinion, the male Adele. No, I don't at all mean that he looks like her or something like that, but his voice is flawless, powerful, and almost indescribable. I truly believe he has one of the best voices of the decade. Aside from is voice, Tom is a fantastic live performer, still hitting every note on stage, and to top it off, he has enormous stage-presence.
[Newest]I can say just one thing: I love Tom�'s voice with all my heart and all my soul! R.

4Kurt Cobain (nirvana)
R.I. p mr cobain grunge will live forever we all miss you and we know your watching dave from heaven
kurt is the voice of my generation!He spoke his heart and mind out and not for selling records to these trendyasses!! He is the voice of those who suffers in this terrible world of violence and prejudice!
Kurt Cobain had something that so many others try to imitate. As I type this he is placed at #18, but will always be #1 to me. Love you forever Kurt xo
[Newest]Kurt cobain I really admire you!
5Jared Leto
He deserves the first place!
If you have ever seen one of their concerts you now what I'm talking about.
He is inspiration for many echelons around the world, not only him also Tomo and Shannon.
And his voice? Well just two words can describe it pure perfection same kind of voice on the records an in concerts.. He just deserves to win because he does there is no other way

One amazingly talented individual. He seriously has no competition with these others. His vibe, energy and overall compassion for music is flawless.
He is insanely talented you have no idea what this man is capable of. He cares about the echelon an the environment, animals, less-fortunate people. He is more than just a pretty face.
[Newest]Charismatic... With one of the most amazing voices I've ever heard.
6Robert Plant
Robert is deffinetly the best frontman of all time. With his beautiful, unique voice, his charisma and his undeniable ability to put on a wonderful show and interpret the Led Zeppelin songs with such passion that you would think he's singing them for the very first time, he is truly a ROCK GOD.
With his long golden hair and bare chest, on stage he portrayed the image of a rock god.Robert Plant is deifinitlely one of the best singers ever.He should be on #1.
Undoubtedly Robert plant is the no. 1 front man of all time nobody even comes near him! How he can be at no. 8?
7Ville Valo (HIM)
Beautiful man, beautiful singer/songwriter and the man is intelligent which is very refreshing in a lead singer of a band. He knows what he wants and wont compromise on his standards. VERY underestimated songwriter, his songs can bring me to tears, make me scream and smile, and his music is the only thing that gets me through the day at times when I need something that will bring me out of my depths of despair cause he has been there too, its like he senses what us fans feel too. Hey I could go on forever praising this wonderful man, but unless you listen to him and HIM yourself you will never understand what I'm talking about... In our eyes he is NUMBER ONE!
Ville Valo's ability to be the best at everything that the lead singer and songwriter should be he can provoke the emotion of the song with his gestures and mannerisms on stage and in music videos. Ville's vocal range is also one of his many talents he mainly is a baritone singer but he can hit high notes as well which is an amazing feat to accomplice.
Ville Valo is witty, charismatic and just someone who you can relate to on one level or another. He bears his heart and feelings in his music and lyrics and allows you to peer into the deep ends of his soul in the songs. His voice is magnificent in the range that it can cover, and he is a rare talent that you get very very rarely specially in these times.
[Newest]The best songwriter in the last two decades... not exaggerating!
More comments about Ville Valo (HIM)
8James Hetfield
Why isn't James #1? He has the loudest strongest metal voice out of anyone(listen to... And Justice for all). He can do soft rock like its what he's been doing for ever(listen to nothing else matters). And he can do all this while doing some off the Fastest and greatest rifts know to any man.
he should be higher, but 8 is ok, he is an awesome performer, he can play and entertain at the same time! the only thing that I don't like is the abandonment of the aggresive stage presence now "you better sing along.. or you are in F****** TROUBLE" has turned into "sing along if you know the words" sad ( I want to write sad but true, but thats just a kliche :P )
Agreed! Hetfield should be number one! He is a Legend of thrash unlike anyone else on the list... Except freddie to a legend.. But anyway
How is he 8? And behind all these people? Like who is the number one? And bon jovi sucks! And people vote jackson, why? Right he died! If he didn't he wouldn't be in that spot, or in the top ten.

9Michael Jackson
The best child/male frontman ever.. all because when you see him with his band called the jackson 5, it always send you smiling with fascination and adoration... all because he is so young and so cute but he can pull up a voice that's so far from his age, he dances like an expert even at 7... he can already groove like that of James Brown's and many other influences by just merely looking and observing them plus with an age not more than 10
His voice is just unique and make me feel loved when I was alone. Many people don't understand him and judge because they believe everything they read in magazines. He was an amazing artist and person, and also have a really special place in my heart
I'll never forget you Mike
I'll never forget you Mike
Michael Jackson... oh ya... The best frontman... he knew how to get a crowd interested in what he had to offer... his sex appeal, his genuine love for the stage and giving his 100 effort in every show. He was a leader and a genius showman for sure... RIP love xo him forever

10Mick Jagger
I think Jagger should be number 1. I know others wouldn't agree because some prefer Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, James Brown etc and that's understandable. But Mick is still surely top 5 in that scenario. But Jared Leto? Come on people!
Who even is he?
Who even is he?
Oh come on this man has twice (or more) the charisma of jared leto, the confidence of freddie mercury and a very very very very unique voice

Axl Rose is the frontman of the most dangerous band in the world. He sings, plays piano, rant about what is happening in his life, he controls the audience to see if there is somebody that will get hurt. Many people think that he is dumb, but they are just hypocrites unlike Axl who is very real in his action and words. He didn't fake any single thing that he did.

15Morten Harket
Morten is the best male voice on earth, he deserves the first place. He gives wings to a song. Let one of the vocalist in the list here sing an a-ha song, maybe "Summer Moved On" or "Hunting High And Low", I'm sure they all will fail. A-ha songs are so difficult and complicated to sing and Morten is so perfect in giving this songs a soul
Morten might not be a big entertainer, but he has an unique voice and that "special something" that blows you away
He was, is and will always be the number 1. He is the best male voice on earth. Freddie Mercury and Morten should be number 1 in this list because both have an amazing vocal range and so much emotion in their voices. By the way, Morten is also the most beautiful men/singer.

18Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden)
Agreed. This list is bogus. It;s all about popularity. Saw him live, he was jumpin all over the place. Put on a truly awesome show
Has one of the greatest and most powerful voices in rock n' roll history, and he still has it even in his later years.
No one else runs around like this guy and still sings perfect
19David Lee Roth
One of the greatest frontmen and entertainers of all time, no one can do a show as 'Diamond' David Lee Roth! Split leaps, kicks, and his one and only voice is what a real Heavy metal frontman is made of! Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the originall, the one and only: David Lee Roth!
David Lee Roth got the crowd going evertime he put on a live show doing high flying ariel spin kicks doing and split leap off the drum stage.
This man is legendary when it comes to performance live.

I was going to vote for Freddie Mercury, but when I saw David Lee Roth at number 23, I had no choice. He had everything needed to be an exceptional frontman. Why so low? Let's get him in the top ten please, where he rightfully belongs.
20Jim Morrison
Jim Morrison is a very sexy, creative frontman. I love it when I would watch clips of The Doors performing live and would see Jim wearing black boots and tight, sexy leather pants. He also makes me melt when I would hear him say one of his poems and would hear him sing
The original bad boy of rock and roll. Jagger changed his whole persona after seeing Morrison. I remember the Stones on Ed Sullivan in their little sailor suits. This is where Jagger didn't have the balls to sing the original lyrics to a Rolling Stones song. "Let's spend some time together? " That was great Mick.
Anyone who has studied rock music will agree that Jim Morrison was the first (and still one of the best) "frontmen" - as we now know the term.
21Billie Joe Armstrong
This man is a genius. His songwriting is brilliant, he's a fantastic singer and guitarist, but most of all he is the best showman I have ever seen. He has a way of holding an audience in the palm of his hand, with a lot of sexuality, a lot of fun and a whole load of talent!
Are you kidding me?
He deserves to be higher!

22Steve Perry (Journey)
Steve Perry is the most amazing singer I have ever heard, and he is responsible for co-writing many timeless hits. Journey is well known for their long and strenuous tours. Perry was able to not only sing every night, but each night he reached heights which most singers can only dream of. Along with his seemingly endless range, Steve Perry was capable of singing with such emotion so as to give life to each song. He raised the bar for live performances, singing each song with near perfection, and usually better than the studio versions. To not appreciate what Perry has done is a sad thing.
Ok I am going to say right now, any spot other than top 3 is a plain insult to this guy. There are few frontman that have ever lived that had as much vocal range as Perry. The guy was an amazing vocalist to say the least.
Stellar vocals and so sexy! He can kill any song.
I thought I'd "seen it all" and there came Gackt Diabolos Tour and the LIVE HORSE RIDING! I don't think there are any currently live shows as professionally and elegantly put together as Gackt's these days.

33Eddie Vedder
Passion and Emotion pretty much describes what he brings to the table. Seeing some of these rankings shows the average 'age' to be young. I'm not old, but respect what has come before. Seeing some of this shows that people really haven't listened to a ton of music that are voting.

52Paul Stanley
Why so low? I have no idea! Paul Stanley #1 no doubt about it! The charismatic, sexy, charming, talented, energetic, upbeat front man of KISS! A living rock legend. His wailing vocals are sub par and are like that of none other! He's pushing 60 for heaven's sake! BUT he can put on better shows than anyone or any other band I've ever seen, when you go to see a KISS concert you know you did the right thing with your money! Paul Stanley's uncanny ability to go from high range vocals to low is magnificent! As a front man he does more than just sing! He plays rhythm guitar as well as song writing! HE is the heart and soul of KISS. His singing will knock your sock off! Just listen to Love gun, or any other KISS song and you'll see what I'm talkin' about! And boy do the women go CRAZY over this hunk of a man!
He should be #1!
He really gets the crowd to interact, he even "flies" to the audience at one point in the show! THE best singer to DATE! His voice is SO cool!

59Michael Hutchence
I really can't believe he is so far down the list. If we are truly talking a band which is a some of its parts he should be top 10. Great voice, charisma and sex appeal. Songwriter, etc are not necessary. These are different skills and should not be lumped in. He took INXS songs to another level. Bono, doesn't touch him. No matter how much he might try he has absolutely no sex appeal. This is an absolute must. Being a musical genius is not necessary. All the best - Jagger, Scott, Plant, Morrison, Keidis - have this in common. A lot of these entries are self-concious and fashionable. Liam Gallagher, Jared Leto - get real. Elvis, Jackson and Springsteen are solo performers really not integral to a band.
Come on #42 you've got to be joking... Michael Hutchence was one of the greatest male front men of all time. Definite top 10 material!
Bottom line is that he was one of the best front men ever. YES HE WAS SEXY, YES HE COULD MOVE LIKE A Mf! But the best is that he seemed so humble. He seemed like a really great guy.

70Dave Gahan (Depeche Mode)
Love them or hate them (Music), Dave Gahan is by far one of the best frontmen. His stage persona is heavily influenced by Elvis, Mick Jagger, Freddy Mercury and Prince. He sings awesome, dances great & keeps the fans involved in the concert. Watch any live performance and you will understand why. His stage presence ranks with Mick Jagger and Jim Morrison.
No other band has stayed at the top of their game for as long or with the same level of consistency as Depeche Mode. This is in no small part due to the man who has out sung out gyrated out partied and ultimately outlasted everyone of his peers. Dave Gahan.
Why? Great voice, even after 30 years, charisma and his live performances. Without him, we would never know such a band like Depeche Mode.

Embryo: A Defense of Human Life – A Defense of Human Life (Doubleday). Written by George and Christopher Tollefsen, Embryo tackles the questions of when life begins and what rights embryonic human life deserves. Arguing from a scientific and philosophical perspective, George and Tollefsen present a compelling case that embryos are human beings and have "the right not to be intentionally killed."

Switchblade Symphony gets into the Halloween spirit and makes like a ghost for Kresge Town Hall show
By David Espinoza
FOR ALL THE TROUBLE it took me just to sneak past campus security and get up to Kresge Town Hall, Bay Area cult favorites Switchblade Symphony canceled their show Oct. 29. Apparently, the band actually showed up in the afternoon only to leave upon discovering that the venue wasn't a club nor were there provisions for special instrumental effects. Word of mouth (one Kresge college assistant and a college programs coordinator) was that a breakdown in email communication among promoters, band and booking agent was to blame. Shouldn't that be all the more reason to eliminate the latter altogether? As for the band, what ever happened to the Halloween spirit of peace and goodwill toward--oh, never mind.
Funny Duckies
Speaking of campus life, "thank goodness for classes that start after noon" seemed like the appropriate mantra for folks attending Del the Funky Homosapien show at Palookaville late Oct. 25. While Del and Aceyalone were unquestionably the main attraction, newcomers Ugly Duckling made quite an impression with their old-school-style rapping.
Acknowledging their own "white-boy"-ness and casual attire, the trio elicited cheers when they clowned tough-guy hip-hop by spinning Bel Biv Devoe's "Poison" while badly dancing the Running Man and Cabbage Patch. The '80s flashbacks didn't end there as the two MCs threw out rhymes about rapping when Michael Jackson was still black and George Michael was straight. (When was that anyway? In Wham?)
The Street Beat
Santa Cruz's folk darling Eli Salzman is back in town and now working with a bassist and drummer. (When we left off, the singer/songwriter had just moved to L.A. to further his musical career.) Interestingly, I found this out because two aliens with a wiener dog across from Cinema 9 caught my attention, as well as a tall, silver Roman god/industrial-looking thing who turned out to be Salzman dressed for Halloween.
Other local musicians didn't take the night off, like dobro man David Scully and Brazilian dance band Sambada (the drum section), who both could be seen making a ruckus up and down Pacific. Scully brought along a couple of buddies who played a washtub bass (broomstick, heavy piece of string, washtub--some assembly required) and washboard, which was almost as fun as seeing a potential fight brewing between rival fast-food-chain mascots Jack from Jack in the Box and Ronald McDonald.
Other great costumes of the night included a computer man with blinking lights that, instead of having the label "Intel Inside," read "Evil Inside." And the woman with 5-foot-tall butterfly wings. An honorable mention for the best pun should go to the guy with a noose around his neck and a sign which read, "Well Hung."

Bruce Lee vs. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in a movie fight. This is why YouTube should exist.
The scene is from the film "Game of Death," which was one of Bruce Lee's final films but not released in the United States until five years after his death (with all sorts of reshoots). He filmed most of the movie in 1972 but left before it was complete when the offer for "Enter the Dragon" (a high budget Hollywood film) came in. Lee died not long after in Hong Kong due to an acute cerebral edema, before he could finish this film. Someone else edited and released it years later.
But this scene is classic — Abdul-Jabbar is athletic and fights in Lee's Jeet Kune Do hybrid style. The result is just really entertaining. Way more entertaining than the entire movie.
It's a little different for our Friday Night Video segment, but it seemed like a fun way to start the weekend. And a nice little diversion during the off-season.

Global research firm IDC is upbeat that Apple will spur further uptick of phablet sales worldwide, notwithstanding that the iPhone is joining the supersized smartphone rumble a bit late. Samsung will soon issue the fourth iteration of its flagship phablet while Apple will have its first try this year.
Despite being a newbie, the jumbo iPhone 6 will easily assume a rock star status, according to the same report.
"With Apple expected to join the space in the coming weeks, we anticipate even more attention on phablets as larger screen smartphones become the new norm," 9to5Mac quoted the IDC report as saying.
Thanks to the giant iPhone, phablet will rule the 2014 gadget race and even next year, surpassing the sales projected for personal computers and tablets.
The iPhone 6 and other high-end phablets from major vendors will spike up the segment's 2014 sales and by the end of the year, some 175 million units will be cleared that will exceed the 170 million PCs that buyers will take home by end of December.
And by 2015, the international phablet sales will nearly double, said the IDC report, chalking up some 318 million units of total sales and easily overtaking the same year performance that tablet computers are predicted to turn in.
The iPhone 6 is a juggernaut due mainly to the combo of its upsized display and the powerful Apple brand, according to analysts, but the company seems bent to ensure that its latest products - both the 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch models - will haul in tons of cash.
One likely way to do that, per a MacRumors story, is bring rock icon U2 to the picture. The iconic rock band will reportedly play a prominent role in the next iPhone rollout, added the Apple-centric blog site.
One possibility is packing U2's upcoming record with the device plus a music video that the Irish rockers had recently shot.
Or, the same report added, U2 will take the stage and rock the September 9 iPhone 6 grand intro that the Cupertino-based Apple will host, which analysts said will pave the way for the handset's actual release date one week after or September 19.

The California Academy of Sciences is planning Pacific island biotic surveys and inventories.
In classic maritime expedition style, we will survey and study birds and other organisms in order to better
understand the ecology of south Pacific ecosystems and gauge the health of plant animal populations of Oceania.
Much of the work will be ship-based studies of Pacific avifauna. We will begin by re-surveying portions of Rollo Beck's Whitney South Seas Expeditions, drawing on the journals and baseline data from a nearly a century ago.

I've attached a screenshot of pavucontrol. Is there a way to have the system sounds play in stereo and not mono? It seems when it's set to mono, it only plays the sound out of my left speaker. Music apps play just find in stereo, and I'm able to adjust the L/R channels independently. I'm on Ubuntu 12.10, 3.5.0-23-generic. Thanks for any help!
Take the 2-minute tour
Ask Ubuntu is a question and answer site for Ubuntu users and developers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
While I'm not sure of the exact rationale for this decision to play the sounds as mono, the reason why they are mono is because the system is supposed to play the sounds on either side of the system depending on where your mouse is positioned. It doesn't always work perfectly, but that is the intended behaviour. Unfortunately this seems to be hard-coded, so that you cannot change this behaviour without editing the source code to Gnome itself. |

Released: Sep 22nd, 1999
Running Time: 109
Directors: Kovie, Pierre Woodman, Frank Thring
Company: Private Media Group Inc
Barbie (I), Sorrica, Others, Adele (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
A Private vid for couples? You bet. Stock it.
Being that Private releases are Teflon-coated, steel-jacketed and fully critic-proof, it certainly won't hurt their feelings -- let alone your sales -- to mention that top-of-the-line talent are conspicuously absent from this volume.
So what's up with the latest carnal travelogue? An African threesome, a European picnic, a pool hall tryst, a behind-the-scenes look at Frank Thring doin' his thing, visits to the Venus and Sexpo porn conventions, and a wild hump on the Aussie beaches.
It's the latter tryst, featuring demure Dianna and an uncredited meat puppet, which captures the most heat; surprisingly so. It's just a simple, romantic boy/girl scene... an occurrence in the Private universe common as a Halley's Comet sighting. Yet undeniable sexual chemistry (plus a gorgeous sunset location) raises this sequence a cut above the rest. Nomination, please.
As one might expect, the tape is peppered with multipartner d.p.s. facials, etc. We found them fairly mechanical, but the perpetual Private connoisseur might disagree. At least the girls don't have those fake smiles plastered on their faces all the time.

ND is beating the crap out of Navy right now on CBS. (Yes, I've missed football so much that I'm breaking my no watching ND rule.) 20-0 and a now Navy fumble. First head/neck injury of year. Johathan Wev of Navy was helped off the field and is sitting on the sideline with sunglasses on. Lowered his head to tackle and got popped on the back of his head.
Sweet venue:
lol its a joke. Have you seen the Navy endzone..... It is impossible to tell whats in bounds and whats out
Originally Posted by dabears32 lol its a joke. Have you seen the Navy endzone..... It is impossible to tell whats in bounds and whats out That's for sure. Looks like they painted the field two weeks ago and mowed the paint off twice. It's pretty bad.
Originally Posted by ISUAgronomist Sweet venue: ...but a horrible game time atmosphere. Looks like the crowd is watching dressage. Maybe that is just the CBS production crew though. Are the bands not allowed to play?
Maybe that is just the CBS production crew though. I think it is. Seems like CBS reduces stadium noise in their productions.
The crowd sucks because the game sucks.
Well, that one won't help Navy.

Is there any way of getting the stock Jelly Bean lockscreen on stock Samsung 4.1.1 (on the pre release XXDLH4). I like TouchWiz the way it is, just not a fan of the lockscreen and dont want to use a 3rd party app? Kind of new to the whole modding / android experience but slowly learning! Thanks
I'm going to assume you rooted and installed the pre-release leak, so I'm moving your thread to the ATR forum for more specific answers. Thanks!
you dont need to be rooted to install it. although rumour has it it ups the flash count you can use a custom lock screen like widgetlocker alternatively if you are rooted there are themes in the s3 section of xda-developers and if you can get ones for custom lockscreens

Too Much Boat?
Hello everyone,
I'm in the process of researching before buying a boat to live aboard and single hand - probably in the Caribbean. I'm planning on doing this alone, at least to start, I'm 57 and have no family - and I don't have a lot of sailing experience. I'm going to the USVI in April to take an extensive Ocean Sailing and Navigation course. My experience to date is many years ago in university - took a good, basic sailing course and went on a few cruises, piloted by others.
I've posted questions here about rigging for single-handed sailing a 34-40 foot boat and got some excellent advice.
I've also read a few other threads on this site about cruising.
Up to now, I've identified the following 'needs'.
1. I want to spend as little time in a slip as possible - preferring to try being 'on the hook', so storage of water, fuel, waste and basic living needs is important. I'm quite comfortable being on my own and don't want to blow the budget on slip fees.
2. From what I've learned here and from my own research is that a cutter rig with furled 100% yankee headsail (to clear the mid-stay when tacking), self-tending furled staysail, gale sail that can be raised over the furled yankee, no furling on the main (unreliable), below deck autopilot (and wheel mounted autopilot back-up) are what is recommended for single-handed sailing - although some people recommended a fractional sloop.
My budget is $80k - $100k for a used boat that would suit my needs - but I wouldn't mind spending less. So far I've been looking at the 20-30 year old Tayana and Hans Christian because of their large tankage, sturdiness and good below deck storage. Don't know if insurance would be an issue with older boats like these.
Here's my question.
Am I crazy?
I don't want to spend tens of thousands every year on maintenance and repairs (I'm not currently all that knowledgeable about doing my own repairs), and I certainly don't want to get a boat that would prove too big for me to handle either at sea or when docking. I've read that 'smaller is better' for cruising, meaning lower costs and fewer worries - and I really don't intend on sailing across oceans any time soon.
Do I need to re-evaluate my criteria - and look for a smaller boat?
Your advice and responses would be greatly appreciated...

A new method for stabilization of softwood kraft lignin fibers for carbon fiber production
Publikation: Forskning - peer-review › Tidskriftsartikel

- Innventia AB, SE-114 86 Stockholm, Sweden
- Department of Fiber and Polymer Technology, Royal Institute of Technology - KTH
Renewable resources, such as kraft lignin, have shown great potential as precursors for carbon fiber production. This manuscript reports an investigation into the stabilization of softwood kraft lignin (SKL) fibers and the determination of the difference in stabilization between hardwood- and softwood-based kraft lignin fibers. The stabilization was achieved either thermally by using only heat or oxidatively in the presence of air, at various heating rates. A heating rate of 4°C min−1 and a holding time of 30 min at 250°C were successfully used for the thermal stabilization experiments. Faster stabilization was achieved using oxidative conditions at a heating rate of 15°C min−1 and 30 min holding time at 250°C. Furthermore, stabilization and carbonization in a one-step process was performed on SKL fibers, which show great potential to reduce both production time and costs. The stabilized and carbonized fibers were evaluated using thermal, spectroscopic, and microscopic methods
