The Brain Trust speaks
No group can be compared to the Wu-Tang Clan. RZA's production is incredible. I can't see how they wouldn't be #1.

Bands Main
If there were only 10 great hip-hop groups, we wouldn't be arguing about who they are. Here are some collectives that, while not top 10 for the entire brain trust, certainly are in some of our hearts.
2 Live Crew
These beastie boys from South Florida literally had to fight for their right to party — the case over whether or not their 1989 LP,
As Nasty as They Wanna Be,
was legally obscene went all the way to the Supreme Court. We can't really call Luke Campbell and his fun-loving, boot-knocking collective
but they did take the weight when the powers-that-be tried to stifle hip-hop's freedom of expression. The Crew were also pioneers of the Miami bass sound, which we know helped inspire crunk. Luke and his crew might not be the world's greatest MCs, but they put on quite an interesting live show.
8Ball and MJG
Former Suave House Records CEO Tony Draper will tell you that the independent rap hustle was sweet back in the day: His franchise artists, 8Ball and MJG, pushed major units in the '90s with little marketing but plenty word of mouth. Ball and MJG climbed the ranks to become Southern legends by not conforming to what was hot, but by staying true to their experiences in the ghettos.
Beastie Boys
Who would have thought that the three poster kids for keg parties would turn out to be hip-hop's big humanitarians in their more mature years? The Beasties came out with a bang — opening Madonna's
Like a Virgin
tour in 1985 before they even had an album out; touring with Whodini and LL Cool J on Run-DMC's
Raising Hell
trek; and having then-little-known Public Enemy open for them when they toured in support of 1987's massive-selling
License to Ill.
The group also managed to recover from the overkill of its early years, reinventing its sound with the sample-crammed
Paul's Boutique
(produced by the Dust Brothers, who'd later play a similar role on Beck's
) and getting into old-school funk throughout the '90s. Still, the Beasties' role in the thriving NYC hip-hop scene of the '80s can't be overlooked: Just for helping to solidify Def Jam alone, the Beasties will go down in the rap annals.
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony
These Thugs were the most melodic group in hip-hop history. How many MCs have tried to follow in Bone's footsteps with a sing-song flow? Many — but no one has been able to do it like this Cleveland group, which was discovered by N.W.A's Eazy-E. Bone Thugs' harmonizing could make a choir jealous, and if you listen closely, they had a lot to say. In 2006, they signed to super producer Swizz Beatz's Full Surface imprint, and have been poising themselves to become a factor on the charts again.
Brand Nubian
They've had some ups and downs over the years, but Nubian were strongest when they consisted of Lord Jamar, Sadat X and Grand Puba.
All for One,
their 1990 debut, was a captivating array of Five Percent knowledge, black pride, self-empowerment and b-boy jams. Puba's swagger is what some MCs still build their style on: book bags, name-brand apparel, a fly honey within arm's reach and those catchy one-liners (at one point, he was one of the most sought-after MCs for guest spots, rapping alongside everyone from Mary J. Blige to Fat Joe to Biggie to Tupac). Jamar was focused on doing the knowledge and expressing his militant side, while Dotty X had one of the most ingenious deliveries ever — some of his lines didn't even rhyme!
De La Soul
Weirdos? We think not. Sure, on their first album, 1989's
Three Feet High and Rising,
they brought a psychedelic tinge to hip-hop that they called the Daisy Age, but their second album proved they were no gimmicky one-trick-ponies. With Prince Paul backing them in the early part of their career, you could always count on some humor to accompany their conceptual wordplay. The De La we know now have not conformed to chase the dollars of kiddie consumers: Plugs One, Two and Three deliver grown-man music at its finest.
Geto Boys
No disrespect to Big Mike, but the Geto Boys lineup that will be remembered the most will always be Scarface, Willie D and Bushwick Bill. 'Face has hall of fame-level respect. He tells his stories with such clarity and gripping conviction that even a corpse could feel what he's saying. Willie D has presence on the mic: When he raps about kicking someone's a-- through the "goal posts of hell," you hear him loud and clear and believe him. Bushwick is the maniacal loon of the crew that you have to listen to every time just to see how crazy his verse will be. In the same way that N.W.A put us onto the West, the Geto Boys opened the doors for Southern hip-hop long before 8Ball and MJG, Outkast and UGK.
Goodie Mob
Before Cee-Lo became the soulful voice of Gnarls Barkley, he was the undeniable standout MC of the Goodie Mob. Not only is 'Lo a better singer than most R&B vocalists, his raps are poignant and prolific. He and his group gained their following with meditative albums in the mid '90s, and remained at the forefront of Southern hip-hop with their clique, the Dungeon Family (which also included Outkast and legendary producers Organized Noize, among others).
Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five
Flash and the Five — Melle Mel, Rahiem, Scorpio, Kidd Creole and Cowboy — were there when rap started. Along with Kool Herc, Flash is the actual prototype DJ: a timeless pioneer who could keep the party going all night and astound the crowds with his skills. He's one of the first people ever to make a mixtape, and he's credited with being the first to scratch on an actual song: 1982's "The Message." That song was huge for the group and even bigger for the hip-hop community: It defined a generation, introduced the genre to new audiences and opened up a new whole world for hip-hop lyrics to explore. Flash — who's still one of the busiest DJs in the world — and the fellas are being rightfully inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.
The LOX
The LOX have actually only made two official albums, but when you add up all the material they've done on the mixtape circuit for the past decade-plus — not to mention their solo work — they have a catalog that's probably larger than Tupac's. Lyrically, there's not another trio that can stand next to Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek Louch. The Yonkers, New York, natives may not see mainstream love that some of their contemporaries have, but the streets will never turn their backs on them. The LOX also have the distinction of being integral parts of two dynasties: Bad Boy circa 1994-98, and Ruff Ryders circa '98-2002.
Mobb Deep
They are masters of blood talk and potent, glum beats that make eardrums bleed and dancefloors turn into jungle terrain. Prodigy and Havoc have not only been able to stay together for over 10 years (a rarity in rap) but they've stayed consistent with opuses riddled with project anguish, liquor-fueled debauchery and rapid-fire gunplay. They'll never step far enough outside their realm to chase a multiplatinum plaque, and that's why they've remained a concrete favorite.
Naughty by Nature
Treach used to kill it on that mic, boy! He was an all-purpose MC: lyrically terrorizing; a new flow on every verse; enough street credibility to be good in any 'hood, from East to West (he was best friends with the realest thug ever, Tupac); and the ability to propel the hip-hop mainstream with tremendous anthems that still get love. Vin Rock is one of the great sidekicks and DJ/producer Kay Gee was masterful with his polished grit. As a group, Naughty were one of the first to get their own clothing line — and even several years after their heyday, the trio are still competitive with younger acts, as far as live performance is concerned.
The Roots
We had a difficult time classifying this long-running Philadelphia troupe. Although they've had a large number of guest MCs making records and performing with them over the years, to make it in our top 10, you had to have at least two MCs officially down with your unit. But this group doesn't really fit into any category, and maybe that's the greatest testament to its legacy. Black Thought — who rated an honorable mention in our Greatest MCs of All Time — still can mix it up with the best of them, the group's instrumental chops are beyond question (they backed Jay-Z on both his 2001 "Unplugged" performance and the 10th anniversary concert for
Reasonable Doubt
), and its live shows are legendary.
Three 6 Mafia
Before they won an Oscar, before they were staying fly, Triple 6 Mafia were putting Memphis on on the hip-hop radar with full-fledged donnybrook music. Hailing from the city most famous for Elvis, DJ Paul, Juicy J and their Hypnotized Mindz camp were able to carve out their own niche, making the world realize that a lot more music is coming out of Memphis than what's playing at Graceland. Whether it's selling records on their own or producing all their albums, Paul and J have kept it self-contained for over a decade — and when you can sell as many records as they have, who needs outside help?
How OG are Ecstacy, Jalil and Grandmaster Dee? They were the first rap group to shoot a music video, the first to regularly feature backup dancers (one of whom was a young, jheri-curl-topped Jermaine Dupri) and were racking up gold and platinum record sales when people said rap was just a fad. They kept their fashion game tight (well, as tight as '80s fashion could be), were able to hold their own on tours with Run-DMC and the Beastie Boys, and hits like "Friends" and "One Love" solidified their mastery of relationship rap.
"He's The DJ, I'm The Rapper": The Greatest MC/DJ Combinations Of All Time
You didn't think we'd let technicalities get in the way of giving props, did you? Although the rulebook disqualified these duos from our top 10, we had to give them their just due.
Eric B. & Rakim
With chains that hung lower than Jibbs', and songs that intertwined with your soul, Rakim became the archetype for all MCs, and Eric B. made sure the beats, scratches and the albums' continuity all stayed on point.
Boogie Down Productions
Together, KRS-One and his original DJ, Scott La Rock, made two of the greatest battle anthems ever with "South Bronx" and "The Bridge Is Over," as well as a classic LP, 1987's
Criminal Minded.
La Rock — who was killed just months after the album's release — was the musical mastermind who had the vision, while KRS had the skills to carry out the game plan. La Rock would have been proud to see the career his friend went on to have.
Gang Starr
DJ Premier is one of the best hip-hop producers of all time — that's unanimous. But he's just as undeniable at scratching: Just listen to "Mass Appeal." Guru has remained steadily dope on the mic with narratives, battle raps and serious science-dropping, all in his well-known monotone.
DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince
No matter what Will Smith is doing now, there's no denying their pioneering presence: They were the first to win a Grammy and bring it back to the hip-hop community, and helped rap shake hands with the mainstream.
Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth
When we reminisce over Pete and C.L., we remember one of the most magnificent hip-hop duos of all time — and one of the most tragic breakups, too. Pete had an undeniable run as an "it" producer during the '90s, and Corey Love made the music even stronger with his smooth, introspective lyrics.
NEXT: Wonder why some of these groups are in Honorable Mention? So did some brain trust members: just see at how mad they are! ...

Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals Horton made decision to let Jets score
Talk about an ultimately meaningless moment in a football game that has caused a lot of furor.
Last Sunday, with the New York Jets leading the Arizona Cardinals 7-6 and driving in the late stages of the game, the Cardinals faced a decision. Having used all their timeouts, and with the Jets in possession of the ball, the only way to give the team a chance for the win would be to let New York score.
Facing a second down and three at the Cardinals' six-yard line, New York quarterback Greg McElroy handed the ball off to running back Shonn Greene, who broke through the line with very little resistance and fell down on his own at the one-yard line. The run gave the Jets a first down, and allowed them to run out the clock and win the game by one point.
Earlier this week, news broke of a spat between Cardinals defenders Kerry Rhodes and Darnell Dockett, who had a disagreement on philosophy. Dockett didn't want to let the Jets score, while Rhodes went along with the plan. The replay clearly shows on that particular play, Dockett is really the only Cardinals defender exerting any energy while the other ten were content to let Greene score and give Arizona one more chance with the ball trailing by eight.
It was all for naught as Greene sacrificed a boost in statistics to completely snuff out any hope the Cardinals had left.
Arizona defensive coordinator Ray Horton, nearly a week later, shed some light on the debate Friday following practice.
"It was my decision," Horton said when asked about his beliefs in letting an opponent score. "The ultimate goal is to win the game, whether you give up a safety, whether you give up a touchdown. My philosophy is whatever it takes to win a game -- so if it means doing that, I'd do it to give ourselves a chance.
"I asked (Whisenhunt) to do it, for time reasons."

Our pelican in her piety brooch is hand cast in the U.S. from lead free pewter. It was a medieval belief that, if a pelican was unable to find enough food to feed her young, she would peck at her own breast and feed the drops of blood to her young. It is because of this belief that the pelican has long been a symbol of selflessness and charity. Measures approximately 2 x 2 inches.

Prosecutors have charged a Pierce County mother with child assault after she allegedly used an eyedropper to put bleach in her 14-month-old daughter's eyes multiple times, causing permanent damage.
Jennifer Mothershead pleaded not guilty to the charges Monday in Pierce County court. A judge ordered Mothershead to be held on $150,000 bail.
According to charging documents, Pierce County deputies were contacted after the 14-month-old was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center with serious head injuries and Mothershead was unable to give an explanation.
Medical personnel discovered the child also had some bruising and an eye infection. Upon questioning by detectives, Mothershead appeared unperturbed about the situation and said she had no idea what caused the child's injuries, according to court documents.
When asked about the eye infection, she said the child's eyes had been swollen shut for four weeks and that the toddler slept 20-22 hours a day, due to discomfort. She also said the child had been prescribed antibiotics and eye drops for an eye infection caused by an injury while playing in a barn.
When detectives placed the toddler into protective custody, Mothershead said she needed to give the child eye drops before she left and left the eye drops in a cooler in the hospital room.
When hospital staff later opened the bottle, they said a noxious odor filled the room, burning eyes, causing mild nausea for staff, said the charging documents. A detective who later opened the bottle said her skin that was exposed to the fumes became red and had a burning sensation.
A forensic team determined that bleach was inside the eye drop bottle. A doctor with Children's Hospital later said bleach was consistent with the type of injury the child had to her eyes, and that a significant amount of bleach, consistently applied would be required to cause the level of damage found in the child's eyes.
The doctor said the child's vision may never be normal and that loss of vision in her right eye was permanent.
The court ruled that Mothershead not be allowed to see or have contact with her daughter, who is currently with her biological father. Mothershead reportedly has no prior criminal history.

NAGA CITY—While the Liberal Party (LP) lagged behind in terms of number of district and provincial bets among the three dominant contending parties in Camarines Sur, it tops in the number of bets running for mayor under its banner.
There are 26 LP mayoral candidates while both the Nationalist People's Coalition (NPC) and Nacionalista Party (NP) have 22 mayor bets each for city and town mayors spread in the five districts of Camarines Sur, records from the Commission on Elections (Comelec) showed.
The province has 35 towns, one component city and one independent chartered city of Camarines Sur.
In Naga City, LP carries the advantage of an incumbent with Mayor John Bongat running against two independent candidates. Elsewhere in the third district, where Naga City belongs, LP has six mayoral bets against the same number that of NPC. NP has five mayoral bets in the seven-town, one city third District where Leni Robredo (LP), widow of the late Jesse M. Robredo, is running against Nelly Villafuerte (NPC), wife of Rep. Luis R. Villafuerte, in the congressional race.
Four incumbent mayors running for reelection belong to the NPC's ticket of Nelly Villafuerte while Bongat is the only reelectionist on Robredo's side. Naga City has the biggest number of voters, at 79,743 or about 33 percent, of total voters in the district.
LP managed to field only three mayoral bets in the second district, where seven incumbent mayors are allied to reelectionist Rep. Diosdado Ignacio "Dato" Arroyo.
LP's congressional candidate, former San Fernando Mayor Sabas Mabulo, is pitted against Arroyo and outgoing Gov. Luis Raymund "LRay" Villafuerte (NP), who has mayoral candidates in all the seven towns of the district.
In the five-town first district, four of the mayoral bets, one incumbent, are LP members even if they are allied with Rep. Rolando Andaya Jr. of Lakas Christian Muslim Democrat.
Andaya however supports the gubernatorial candidacy of Rep. Luis R. Villafuerte (NPC), who is running against grandson Miguel Luis Villafuerte (NP), and former Solicitor General Anselmo Joel Cadiz (LP) and two more candidates.
LP and NPC have both nine candidates for town mayor in the 10-town fourth district, where the Fuentebella political dynasty holds sway for more than a century now.
LP fields actor Aga Muhlach against NPC's William Felix Fuentebella.
NP has no mayoral bet in any of the towns of the district. NPC mayoral bet Ruel Velarde is running unopposed in Tinambac town, which has the biggest number of voters in the fourth district.
In the seven-town and one city fifth district, there are only three LP mayoral bets. In the district's Iriga City, LP tosses Ganggang Alfelor against cousin Emmanuel Alfelor Jr. (NPC) and three independent candidates for city mayor. Ganggang is the younger brother of last-term Iriga City Mayor Madelaine Alfelor while Emmanuel Jr. is the son of Emmanuel Sr., now deceased, who had also served three terms as city mayor.
Mayor Alfelor and incumbent Rep. Salvio Fortuno (LP) are allied to Governor Villafuerte.

Area 51. Buzzards.and high security. Oh yes - this one had me from the start. Tangled in Time is identified as 'steampunk' and is my first foray into the genre. I worried that it would be a chaotic hodgepodge. However Pauline Baird Jones has convinced me quite otherwise.
First off - Tangled in Time is all about a couple of quirky characters; Col. Carey's early interface with the buzzard develops reader sympathy early on, but Miss Olivia simply steals the show, hands down (or hands up, as they case may be, because she believes in being well-armed). She cares about stature and credibility we see. but her effort to establish it might leave the poor nonplussed Colonel in some doubt. She has no such troubling doubts - she knows a ruffian when she sees one, crinkly blue eyes or not.
However, they are both find themselves in not-entirely-predictable circumstances, fabulous pseudo-scientific machinery notwithstanding. Sharing a goal, (and fixing their problems) helps to bring them together.
Throughout, the colonel's wry humor, Miss Olivia being so herself, and the brilliant dollops of humor all contrast nicely with the hardly-subtle threads of romance. Rest assured a bit of snogging will have a role to play here, and in more ways than one.
Time and space bend around - or force things (and people) to bend around them, in this fast paced action-slash-romance novella. That's somewhat also Sci-fi with a perhaps a dash of fantasy.so let's just forget about trying to assign it any particular descriptives. Tangled in Time has something for everyone.
Let's face it, if you accept the time-space portal, the fact that the buzzard has some personality won't really throw you.
I love original plots, quirky characters and surprises and I enjoyed every minute of Tangled in Time. Do read.

US Air Force Colonel Braedon Carey volunteers to be a guinea pig for an experiment to traverse space and time through an alien portal on the planet of Kikk. Instead of landing in Area 51 in Nevada in the year 2010, he thinks he's somewhere in Texas in 1944. When he stumbles across a Mary Poppins lookalike holding a parasol in one hand and gun in another, Carey knows he's in the wrong place. Olivia Carstairs, from New York circa 1894, arrives in an experimental machine trying to locate the professor who devised it. When Carey suspects his retrieval chip has been damaged in transit and Olivia's machine mysteriously disappears, the two team up in hopes of finding a way back. It doesn't take them long to realize they're highly attracted to one another but there's the frustrating issue that they're from two separate worlds. Will they be able to return to their own times or be stranded in 20th century America, or will one decide to remain with the other?
Jones packs a wallop of a story in Tangled in Time. Humor and suspense abound in a tale filled with action. The diversity between Carey and Olivia in manner and speaking is portrayed with engaging wit and the chemistry between the two is fun and highly entertaining. Fans of Jones will recognize favorite characters from The Key and Girl Gone Nova, an added bonus. This novella will appeal to readers across genres, offering romance, suspense, and mystery all wrapped up in an intriguing Sci-Fi plot that grabs the reader from beginning to end.

Lynnwood Police Department news — Children are eight times more likely to die if hit by a motor vehicle moving at 30 mph, compared to vehicles traveling 20 mph, or less. It takes a vehicle going 30 mph twice the distance to stop as a vehicle going 20 mph. The frequency of speeding in school zones suggests that risks in neighborhoods with fewer safety measures are even greater.
Because of this, along with resident complaints and a school zone speed study, the city of Lynnwood is installing speed enforcement cameras in two school zones. One of the speed camera systems will be in the Lynnwood Elementary school zone on 44th Avenue W., and the other at the Meadowdale High, Middle and Elementary school zone on 168th Street SW.
In addition, The Edmonds School District agrees with need for the new speed enforcement technology. Starting on the first day of school, Sept. 8, there will be many more children walking or riding their bikes to school than before because the Edmonds School District will no longer be able to provide bus service to students who live within a one-mile radius of their school. (See Related Article).
Lynnwood has a multifaceted approach to reducing school zone speeding. In addition to the new technology, there will be enhanced enforcement activities from the Lynnwood Police Department, patrols by police volunteers, flashing crosswalk lights, and adult crossing guards from the school district.
During a study of the speeds in the school zones this past October, one example showed there were 222 speeders found going more than 11 miles over the speed limit from 7 to 10 a.m. in just one lane on 168th St. SW. Of these vehicles, 16 were going more than 51 mph and two were going more than 71 mph.
The school zone camera system will be in operation when the crosswalk lights are flashing and only during school times, which are from 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on school days. The system isn't constantly filming; it only takes photos when there's a violation.
The speed camera enforcement fines are:
These fines are like parking citations; they don't go on your insurance or driving records. These fines are much less than if police give you an infraction for speeding in a school zone.
Get to School on the Safe Side of the Street
As a result of the loss in state funding for schools, the Edmonds School District has been forced to make significant reductions to create a balanced budget for the 2009-10 school year. Many of these reductions are to student transportation because roughly half of those costs are not reimbursed by the state. For this reason, starting the first day of school, Sept. 8, the district will no longer be able to provide bus service to students who live within a one-mile radius of the student's school, which is recognized by the state as a no-bus-service zone. Because of this, the Lynnwood Police Department and the Edmonds School District would like to offer some pedestrian and bicycle safety tips for your children:
We highly encourage parents to work together to form a "Waking School Bus" for their children. A Walking School Bus is a group of children walking to school accompanied by one or more adults.
For more information on Walking School Bus contact the ESD director of transportation Craig Christensen at 425-431-7233. For help in finding the best route to walk or bike call Tracie Chandler at 425.431.1400.

More than a quarter of bridges in Pennsylvania are structurally deficient, giving the state the highest rate of unsound bridges in the country, according to Transportation for America. The number of structurally deficient bridges in the state will likely increase over the next several years as funding for bridge projects in the Pittsburgh region is expected to decrease, says the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. "Nationally, things aren't much better; engineers are constantly doing triage to keep bridges open and safe," says ASCE's president-elect, Andrew Herrmann.

Most political observers had assumed that former Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer would seek the Senate seat being vacated by Max Baucus, who is retiring. Had Schweitzer decided to run, the seat would probably lean toward a Democratic hold, and the GOP would have only an outside chance at taking back the upper chamber.
But Schweitzer's surprise announcement that he will not run changes that calculus substantially. Republicans aren't favored to win back the Senate, but suddenly there is a pretty clear path forward.
The path begins with Republicans holding their all of their own seats. This will probably be the case, barring a surprise retirement by Maine's Susan Collins. There is some potential for a Democratic upset in Georgia, particularly if Republicans were to nominate someone likely to implode. But Georgia is still a pretty conservative state with a badly polarized electorate, and Democrats don't yet have a top-tier candidate.
The other potential Democratic pickup is in Kentucky. I'm actually more bullish on Alison Lundergan Grimes' chances of defeating Mitch McConnell than are most other analysts on either the left or right. But I still view it as a race that leans GOP.
So as we turn to the Democratic seats in play, our baseline is 45 Republican senators (assuming that a Democrat wins the special election for Frank Lautenberg's New Jersey seat). Most analysts think that Republicans are in the pole position to pick up the seat of retiring Democrat Tim Johnson in South Dakota, which would give the Mount Rushmore State its first all-Republican delegation since 1962. In West Virginia, Democrats are still struggling to recruit a top-flight challenger against the likely GOP nominee, Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, to fill the seat of retiring Jay Rockefeller.

Ex-Sen. Dole hospitalized for routine procedure
Tuesday - 11/27/2012, 7:01pm EST
By ANDREW MIGA
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Former Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas has checked himself into Walter Reed Army Medical Center for what his spokeswoman described as a routine procedure.
Spokeswoman Marion Watkins says the 89-year-old Dole is "doing very well" and is expected to leave the hospital Wednesday.
Dole's name drew mention as the Senate on Tuesday debated a U.N. treaty promoting equal rights for the disabled. Dole overcame disabling war wounds to forge a 36-year political career. In the early 1990s, he underwent successful surgery for prostate cancer and in 2001 he had surgery to treat an aneurysm.
Dole spent 10 months at Walter Reed in 2010 after suffering pneumonia following knee surgery.
He was the Republican nominee for president in 1996, losing to Bill Clinton.

Oxford Choral Classics Octavos. Secular, Choral Leaflet. Level B (easy). Vocal score. 12 pages. Duration 6'. Published by Oxford University Press (OU.9780193418189).
ISBN 9780193418189. Secular, Choral Leaflet. 11 x 7 inches.
For SATB and piano or orchestra. Well known as an orchestral piece, Faure's 'Pavane' is here presented with the choir parts the composer himself provided. The vocal score was first published in 1891, the charmingly slight and musically apt text by Faure's acquiantance, the witty Comte Robert de Montesquio-Fezensac. This edition has eradicated discrepancies in the voice parts between the existing vocal and full scores. Instrumental parts are available on hire from the publisher.

Make some room at the table for Beyoncé this Thanksgiving because the singer is all yours for the holiday.
ABC will be airing "Beyoncé – I AM…Yours" on Thanksgivng night at 9 p.m. EST on Thanksgiving night. The hour-long special will give fans a front-row seat to a performance on her I AM… world tour.
"This is not going to be the typical Beyoncé experience," the singer said in a promo for the holiday special. And Sasha is making good on that promise by taking fans behind scenes for some of her most personal leading up to the show. And be sure to keep an eye out for video of a baby Bey in clips from never-before-seen home movies.
Bey will also be releasing a DVD by the same name, but it's not clear whether the special is an abbreviated version of that.

BANGALORE: Should it be Bengaluru or Bengalooru? This was the question that was posed before the Karnataka High Court when a public interest litigation (PIL) petition on the correct nomenclature of the Silicon City came up for hearing on Monday. The petitionershad challenged the lack of clarity by the Government in coming up with a grammatically correct word for Bangalore city.
They said on November 1, 2006, the State Government decided to change the name of Bangalore to Bengalooru. In February and March 2008, the petitioners said they learnt that the name was now Bengaluru.
They filed an application under the Right to Information Act seeking details of the correct name and the petitioners were informed that the name is Bengaluru. They said the residents of the city should have been consulted before the State decided to change the name. A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice P.D. Dinakaran and Justice V. Gopala Gowda asked the Principal Government Advocate to ascertain facts and adjourned further hearing on the case to Wednesday.
BBMP Commissioner summoned
A Division Bench on Monday summoned the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike Commissioner S. Subramanya to appear in court. The Bench passed the order on a contempt petition. The petitioner had contended that in spite of the court direction, the Commissioner had not changed the khata of a plot of land in Vyalikaval in the name of a mosque.

ZIYANG'S BRUSH By ZIYING
Kapitan Cina Yap Kwan Seng's philanthropic deeds helped lay the foundations of this country and he should be accorded the appropriate recognition in our museums.
A FEW weeks, ago my uncle and his son came to Kuala Lumpur for a visit. They live in Hong Kong and that was their first trip to Malaysia in several years. My uncle said one of the places they were particularly keen to visit was the National Museum (Muzium Negara). He remembered from an earlier visit nearly a decade ago that his grandfather's photo was in one of the museum's galleries and he wanted his son to see it.
Naturally, I was delighted. After all, the country is celebrating 50 years of independence and what better time for someone to reconnect with its historical heritage than on its big birthday? Moreover, though I have been to many excellent museums outside the country, I could not remember when I last visited a museum in Malaysia.
I soon found out, however, that the historical galleries were no longer in Muzium Negara but had been moved to the National History Museum, a pleasant cream-coloured building that used to be the old Chartered Bank, in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. (The building is adjacent to Padang Merdeka and the Selangor Club building)
As we stepped inside the small museum, we looked forward to re-discovering Malaysia's pre-colonial past as well as the life and times of the immigrants who, through a mixture of guts, grit and resolve born of desperate circumstances in the 19th and early 20th centuries, played such an important role in Malaya's economic and social development.
My uncle was eager to see the exhibits on the Kapitan Cina of Kuala Lumpur, the last of whom was his grandfather, Yap Kwan Seng.
Kapitan Yap Kwan Seng's philanthropic deeds and his many contributions to the birth of Kuala Lumpur are the stuff of history. Among his numerous achievements, perhaps one of the most significant is the founding of the Tung Shin Hospital (originally set up as a charity named Pooi Shin Tong) to provide free medical care for the poor. The expenses were, of course, underwritten by the Kapitan himself, who also co-founded the Tai Wah Ward of the Pauper's Hospital that became the Kuala Lumpur General Hospital.
His philanthropic deeds extended beyond Malaya and it is said that a year before he died in 1901, he donated the princely sum of ten thousand dollars towards famine relief in India, a gesture which surely qualifies as Malaysia's first-ever effort at international humanitarian aid.
Kapitan Yap was also a firm believer in education and co-founded one of the leading schools in Malaysia – KL's Victoria Institution. As a businessman, he foresaw an increased demand for bricks in fast-growing Kuala Lumpur and established a kiln in a district which came to be called Brickfields, a name by which it is still known today.
Kapitan Yap had made his fortune in tin-mining. It is said he had a workforce of 7,000 and owned more tin mines than any of his contemporaries.
The Kapitan died many years before my mother and her brothers were born, but his legacy had a lasting influence on her family, who kept his memory alive by recounting stories of his life.
My mother remembered quite clearly her grandfather's houses in Kuala Lumpur and Macau. In fact, before the Japanese War, she lived for a short period in the Kapitan's residence on High Street in Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown (which is today known as Jalan Tun H.S. Lee).
She said it was massive, occupying the greater part of the street, with many deep courtyards, and a large garden in front for entertaining guests. Over 50 people, many of whom were servants, lived in the house. The ancestral hall must have been particularly impressive as she recalled it had a grand altar table upon which was placed chunks of crystal, quartz, gold and other precious stones found in the Kapitan's tin mines.
As my mother attended school in Hong Kong, she spent summer vacations at her grandfather's mansion in Macau, which was apparently even bigger than the Kuala Lumpur residence. It was, she said, long and deep, with countless rooms, nooks and crannies, and so large that many sections were perpetually dim as they had no access to natural light.
Sadly, although the old colonial powers of Britain, Portugal and Holland were given their respective places in the National History Museum, my uncle and I could not find any references to Yap Kwan Seng or to the other Kapitans who helped lay the foundations of this country.
History museums are repositories of a country's past, which, among other things, provide valuable insights into the development of a society or a nation. It is anybody's guess why the Kapitans of old have been omitted from the Museum.
An oversight, perhaps, but for Yap Kwan Seng's descendants and for the many people who to this day benefit from his good works, his legacy will never be forgotten. It is in this spirit that I dedicate this week's column to my great-grandfather, the last Kapitan Cina of Kuala Lumpur.
Ziying is taking a break and will return in October. She can be reached at email@example.com

Mobile to Change Impulse Purchases Permanently, Reports StorefrontBacktalk
WHIPPANY, N.J., Dec. 13, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — The impulse purchase is a critical tool for retail profits, but an unintended result of the recent mobile shopping craze is that impulse purchases are likely going to be permanently changed, as the phones allow for new kinds of impulse purchases while killing many others. The future of impulse purchases and how they'll be impacted by mobile devices was examined in a series of reports at StorefrontBacktalk®, a site that tracks retail technology, mobile and E-Commerce issues.
The impulse reports–available at http://www.storefrontbacktalk.com/payment-systems/mobile-and-impulse-purchases-perfect-together–look at where these changes are likely to change shopping for the indefinite future. "Consider a movie whose star is wearing a really cute sweater or using an especially intriguing gadget. In the lobby seconds after the closing credits start to roll, consumers will be able to find and buy those items. That in-the-heat-of-the-moment urge to buy may have easily calmed long before the consumer gets home to a laptop. But the always-on mobile device will–for the first time–enable such emotional instant buys," the report said. "Or consider sitting in a subway car when you see someone laughing out loud at a book. You catch the title, do a quick search on Amazon, download the e-book version (or, for you dead tree fans, have it delivered to your house tomorrow) and you're actually reading that same book while you're still five stops away from your home station. That's another impulse purchase that simply couldn't have happened without a mobile device."
Those are all examples of new kinds of mobile impulse purchases. There are almost as many examples where mobile is killing impulse purchases. "The very nature of an impulse purchase is emotional and immediate. Whether it's $1 or $2 for candy or a magazine at the checkout counter, $40 for a Blu-ray or hundreds of dollars for a deeply discounted HDTV, these sales only work if the consumer doesn't think about them–or their costs–very much," said StorefrontBacktalk Editor Evan Schuman. "Mobile's ability to make comparison shopping, while still in the store, so easy is likely to have a huge impact. Information is the enemy of the impulse purchase."
The issues are a lot more complicated, though. For consumers who love to shop and enjoy the experience, comparison shopping and electronic research "is a killjoy. Ironically, the consumers who would benefit most from being protected from their own passions are the ones who will fight the hardest to keep impulse purchases," Schuman said. "These are the shoppers who are giving retailers their profits this year."
The full reports are available online at http://www.storefrontbacktalk.com/payment-systems/mobile-and-impulse-purchases-perfect-together.

What happened to the good old 'hello' over the phone?
Ocean's 13", the opening scene. The movie starts with a robbery at a store. Seconds before breaking open the vault, Rusty's (Brad Pitt) rings and he answers it with a, "yeah". Look at any number of movies, and notice the phone conversations. People just don't say "hello" any more.
Whether it is the movies that started the trend, or popular phone culture that prompted the shift in movies, "hello", the most common verbal greeting in English-speaking countries, is being slowly relegated to history.
Young people are forever looking for ways to rebel against the cut and dried rules that go with languages and any breakthroughs in the use of language would usually come from the young and the restless. For Kishen Das, 25, an amateur lepidopterist, the greeting can depend on various factors, including the attitude of the caller, whether the number is known, how busy the person at that moment, the location and the current relationship with the caller. "Sometimes you can just say, 'Man'," he comments.
People tend to take more liberties with the greeting if the caller is someone they are comfortable with. The dudes said they tend to go give traditional salutations the go by if the caller happens to be a close friend. "Well, I'd usually pick up the call and go like, 'Wassup!' or 'Yeah, temme...' If it's a friend calling after a long time, conversations usually start with, 'Finally!' or 'Are you alive?'"says Rohit Panikker, (22), a Thiruvananthapuram-based mediaperson.
"I generally say 'Where are you?' if it's a close friend or if the call is expected. It depends on who is calling and the situation," says Abhimanyu Ghoshal, 20, who works in an advertising agency.
Bidding farewell
It is also not just the greeting that has undergone an overhaul. Even the traditional farewell phrase, 'goodbye' hasn't survived the vicissitudes of popular language. It is increasingly being substituted with more popular phrases such as — 'take care', 'later' etc.
Remember the 1968 Doors song, which had Jim Morrison crooning "Hello, I love you"? Ever wondered how the song would go if it were to be remixed today?SNIGDHA POONAM

My Friend: Pain!
Now, I am 18 months (well there about) into a gluten free diet. Some mysterious way, I got some gluten. Right away I felt sharp pings in my abdomen. The old pregnant looking belly appeared, I had a couple of days of extreme fatigue. I even got diarrhea, and I didn't have that as a symptom before diagnosis. . If I had I felt these signs during my 30 years of battling celiac disease; I would have been asking someone questions right soon. But I didn't feel them.
Today I am glad for pain. It is there to tell me (In no uncertain terms) that something is WRONG or something needs changing. I don't feel like I am dying, or have gone back to square one. I still have a clear mind and energy. Yet, I have been enabled to hear with once deaf ears, and I see where I couldn't see before. Pain is my friend today.

Cubist and Alnylam Tackle RSV, Exact Sciences Fends Off Sequenom, An FDA Panel Backs GTC Biotherapeutics' Goat-Milk Drug, & More Boston-Area Life Sciences News
Rebecca Zacks1/14/09
New England's life sciences firms unveiled some big deals and big plans this week.
—Satori Pharmaceuticals raised $22 million from investors including InterWest Partners, Prospect Venture Partners, New Enterprise Associates, and PureTech Ventures (which launched the firm). The Cambridge, MA-based startup told Luke about its vision of becoming the first company to stop the progressive loss of memory and cognition caused by Alzheimer's disease.
—Lexington, MA-based Cubist Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CBST) agreed to pay Cambridge, MA-based Alnylam Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ALNY) $20 million, plus up to $82.5 million down the road in milestone-based payments, for the right to market RNAi-based drugs that Alnylam is developing to treat respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV.
—New Haven, CT's Kolltan Pharmaceuticals closed a Series A round of venture financing worth over $35 million; the funding will help the startup develop cancer treatments based on the work of Yale University Medical School's Joseph Schlessinger, a cofounder and director of the firm and its chief scientist.
—Marlborough, MA-based Exact Sciences (NASDAQ: EXAS) received—and rejected—a takeover offer from San Diego-based Sequenom (NASDAQ: SQNM). The deal, in which Sequenom proposed to give $1.50 worth of its own stock in exchange for each share in the Massachusetts maker of cancer diagnostics, valued Exact at about $41 million.
—An FDA advisory panel recommended that the agency approve what would be the first drug in the U.S. manufactured in genetically-modified animals: an anti-clotting drug marketed as ATryn by Framingham, MA-based GTC Biotherapeutics. The FDA isn't required to follow such recommendations but it usually does.
—Cambridge, MA-based Alnylam Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ALNY) unveiled its (quite ambitious) plans for the coming year. On the list: two new partnerships with big drugmakers focused on its proprietary RNA-interference technology and ending the year with about $435 million left in the bank.
—Cancer drug developer Forma Therapeutics of Cambridge, MA, inked a license and option agreement with Swiss drug giant Novartis, via the Novartis Option Fund, an investor in Forma. Under the terms of the deal, Novartis will pay Forma an upfront fee and potential payments totaling more than $200 million.
—Ryan had a chat with Susan Windham-Bannister, president and CEO of the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center, which is charged with running the state's $1 billion life sciences stimulus plan. She shared how her agency is coping with budget cuts, how it's encouraging corporate partners to match state investments, what types of projects it's interested in funding, and more.
—Cambridge, MA-based Targanta Therapeutics (NASDAQ:TARG) accepted a $42 million buyout offer from The Medicines Company (NASDAQ:MDCO). The deal comes on the heels of a huge blow dealt to Targanta last month when the FDA decided not to approve its lead antibiotic, oritavancin, indicating that further clinical testing would be necessary. Targanta shareholders must approve the deal, which includes additional cash payments for regulatory and sales milestones.
—Biogen Idec (NASDAQ: BIIB), also of Cambridge, announced that its experimental drug for Parkinson's disease reached its goal of demonstrating effectiveness in two mid-stage clinical trials. The drug, BIIB-014, aims to be one of the first in a new class of Parkinson's treatments that minimize the secondary symptoms of the disease and keep standard therapies from losing their effectiveness over time.
