Dear all,
We are planning the future direction of our current InterMap WMS web client.
To avoid working in isolation or duplicating a lot of work already done we are open to contribute to existing W*S clients, or invite others to participate in the design and implementation of an InterMap version 2. We have a number of requirements for the client that we must include and a number of features we aim for. I will list these below and hope some interested people are willing to participate.
The targeted user community is people working in developing countries with poor internet connections.
Design decisions:
- Java based, using GeoTools API
- XML services with XSLT for (e.g.) html output (processed on the server)
- Client runs on a servlet engine
- Combined image of active layers is transfered to browser to minimize traffic between server running InterMap and client using InterMap
- No applet
- Expandable by design to support new services like WPS, WTS etc...
Technical requirements:
- Support for access to WMS, WFS and WCS services
- WFS provides view option and extract option to store an AOI in selected format to local system
- WCS provides view option and extract option to store an AOI of a coverage in selected format to local system
- Support for ArcIMS image and feature services
- Support for feature extraction when available
- Flexible map size
- Zoom (including quick zoom through gazetteer service), pan, select & identify
- Transparency of layers
- Time dimension support, including the generation of animations
- SLD support (both client and server side SLD)
- WMContext support to open, save and email a WMC.
- Integration of metadata information, e.g. link back to metadata catalog
- User defined, but initially automatically chosen image format (jpeg with compression setting, gif, png)
- User defined settings
- Default image size
- Default image format and quality (jpeg, png, gif)
Looking forward to your inputs, thanks,
Jeroen Ticheler
- Add layers on the fly from not pre-configured W*S servers (combine layers from different servers on user request)
Mike Adair
Hi Jereon,
I replied to your email with this but missed that you had created this forum, so I'm reposting the mail here, with an addition about adding layers.
It includes support for Context (load and save), WMS, WFS (rendering is somewhat limited at this point, but will be improved). WCS support would require a coverage portrayal service. In the near term we will be implementing CSW client support and probably WPS client support. It supports client side coordinate transformations (a limited set of projection at this point, but easy to extend). It already has WMS time series support (have a look at the demos).
We can also dynamically add WMS/WFS data to an existing context document. Have a look at the contextEditor demo. This is at the prototypee stage so not everything works yet but you can add layers. Click on Browse WMS servers, pick one from the list (ESRI ones may or may not return anything, Bird Studies is a good one to test with) then select "add to the map" for any layer. you can save the result by clicking on the save button (the last one in the row, needs a better graphic).
I have an instance of mapbuilder installed at http://geoservices.cgdi.ca/mapbuilder/ and the sourceforge page is at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mapbuilder
We are close to doing a new release. If you want to try it out, I suggest getting the CVS head version rather than the 0.1 release since much has changed since that release.

Lady Vols' Warlick preparing for high expectations - 0 Comments
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee's Holly Warlick feels the difference a year of head coaching experience makes.
She doesn't have to answer as many questions about replacing Pat Summitt, whose 1,098 career wins are the most of any Division I men's or women's basketball coach ever. She doesn't worry about whether she can make the transition from assistant to head coach.
Although Warlick insisted she didn't feel any extra pressure last year as Summitt's successor, she acknowledges she went into her debut season with something to prove.

Creator: Schultz, Matt & Skinner, Katherine
Description: The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH)-funded Chronicles in Preservation project (http://metaarchive.org/neh/) completed this Comparative Analysis of three Distributed Digital Preservation systems to analyze their underlying technologies and methodologies: -Chronopolis using iRODS (http://chronopolis.sdsc.edu/). -University of North Texas using Coda (http://www.library.unt.edu/). -MetaArchive Cooperative using LOCKSS (http://metaarchive.org/). This Comparative Analysis is not intended to designate any of the Distributed Digital Preservation (DDP) systems as superior or inferior to one another in any of the areas disclosed. On the contrary, digital preservation is often best served by maintaining a variety of solutions, and each of the three DDP systems have partnered actively with one another on several digital preservation initiatives and are learning constantly from one another's approaches. The Chronicles in Preservation project, and more specifically, this Comparative Analysis, has been undertaken by these three systems in order to test, document, and refine their processes, not in isolation, but as a collaborative effort.

Air Share Unreleased Version of "Playground Love" From The Virgin Suicides Reissue
By Matthew Strauss on June 12, 2015 at 10:05 a.m. EDT
Air have shared an unreleased version of their track "Playground Love", from a January 2000 broadcast on KCRW's "Morning Becomes Eclectic" in Los Angeles. It comes from the 15th-anniversary reissue of Air's score for Sofia Coppola's The Virgin Suicides.
Air's Nicolas Godin Preps Debut Solo Album Contrepoint, Shares "Orca"
By Evan Minsker on June 1, 2015 at 9:33 a.m. EDT
Nicolas Godin has released seven albums as half of Air. This year, he'll release his debut album Contrepoint via Because Music. He's shared a video for the album's opening track "Orca", which was directed by Sean Pecknold (brother of Fleet Foxes frontman Robin Pecknold).
Listen: New Air and Oneohtrix Point Never Music for the Kelsey Grammer TV Show "Boss"
By on September 10, 2012 at 4:21 p.m. EDT
The Kelsey Grammar show "Boss" (airing Friday nights on Starz) came into music news consciousness a couple weeks ago when we learned that Mark Hollis (of Talk Talk legend) made music for the show, marking his first new material in about 14 years. The September 21 episode of the show will feature a new Hollis instrumental called "ARB Section 1" during its final scene and closing credits.
Talk Talk's Mark Hollis Resurfaces With New Music for the Kelsey Grammer TV Show "Boss"
By Amy Phillips on August 31, 2012 at 10:09 a.m. EDT
Vintage Talk Talk press photo via the Spirit of Talk Talk Facebook page
For decades, Mark Hollis of Talk Talk has been one of the most mysterious figures in pop music. After hitting it big as new wave stars in the early and mid-80s, with massive singles like "It's My Life" and "Life's What You Make It", Talk Talk abandoned synth-pop and went experimental. Their 1988 album Spirit of Eden and its follow-up, 1991's Laughing Stock, are cult classics, steeped in the kinds of jazz-influenced sounds that would later be known as post-rock.

As previously reported, French dream-pop icons Air will release a new album, Le Voyage Dans La Lune (inspired by the silent film of the same name) on February 7 in the U.S. and February 6 internationally on Astralwerks. It includes lyrics and vocals from Beach House's Victoria Legrand on a song called "Seven Stars". Listen to the track over at NME.
Air to Release Album Inspired by Silent French Film From 1902
By Carrie Battan on November 21, 2011 at 1:54 p.m. EST
French dream-pop outfit Air are set to release an album on February 7 through Astralwerks, their first since 2009's Love 2. Titled Le Voyage Dans La Lune after Georges Méliès' 1902 silent short French film by the same name, it's an expansion of a project they worked on earlier this year. (The duo provided music for an updated version of Méliès' film for its debut at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival.)
Video: Air: "So Light Is Her Footfall"

This classy black-and-white clip for French masters Air's Love 2 track "So Light Is Her Footfall" features beautiful women lightly treading through a labyrinthine apartment. A shadowy panther is involved, too. Watch it below:
Thanks to reader Julien Britnic for the tip.
Air Plot North American Spring Tour
By Ryan Dombal on December 7, 2009 at 5:40 p.m. EST
"Springtime just got a little sexier" would be the tagline to Air's upcoming March tour of North America if Air were lame. Air are not lame. But they are sexy.
So good news: the French twosome is ready to hit all sorts of big U.S. and Canadian cities for the first time in three years, in support of this year's Love 2. Nicolas Godin and Jean-BenoĂŽt Dunckel will be joined by British drummer/percussionist Alex Thomas (Bat for Lashes) on the trek. According to a press release, this is the "first of several U.S. trips" planned for the group in 2010. Crushed velvet shoes? Check plus.
Until March, the live trio will keep busy perfecting their show across Europe, including a date tonight at Estonia's Rock CafĂŠ, which sounds like a cool venue. All known Air dates below:
Video: Air: "Sing Sang Sung"
By Tom Breihan on September 10, 2009 at 2:30 p.m. EDT
Things you'll see in the new Air video: mushroom lilypads, forests of female legs, seas full of diamonds. The animated "Sing Sang Sung" clip, from directors Petra Mrkyz and Franรงois Moriceau, follows a black dot through what looks like an 80s side-scrolling video game on even more acid than usual. It's a weirdly absorbing viewing experience, and it does exactly what a music video is supposed to do: It somehow makes the song sound better.
Check the clip below (via Pitchfork.tv). As previously reported, Air's forthcoming LP Love 2 is due October 6 from Astralwerks.
Listen to Air's Brand New Song
By Ryan Dombal on July 6, 2009 at 3:15 p.m. EDT
Air's new album of lush pop, excellently titled Love 2, is due out October 6 on Astralwerks. New song "Do the Joy" is not the official single from the record-- that would be "Sing Sang Sung", out August 25-- but it is the first thing you can hear from it.
Head over to Air's official site, fill in a fake name, a real e-mail address, and get a code to download "Do the Joy" from iTunes. I just did it; it works. And-- guess what-- this thing is pretty Air-y! Robot voices, spaced-out synths, a general cloud-jumping vibe-- it's all here. Based on this song alone, it seems like the "back to Moon Safari" hype may not be completely unwarranted this time.

Honours for Shore businesswomen
Relevant offers
A woman who moved to New Zealand just over 20 years ago has received a New Year honour.
Yong Kim from Browns Bay was made a made a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit.
Mrs Kim thought the postie had made a mistake last month when she received a letter bearing the official Crown seal. The letter was to congratulate her on receiving a New Year's honour.
"To be honest, I thought it was for the wrong person," she says.
"But when I realised it was for me I was very humbled to receive such an honour. It was a day I will never forget."
Mrs Kim received the honour for her services to the Asian community and business but says she doesn't see she's done anything special.
"All I do is share the knowledge that I've gained through my career," she says.
Mrs Kim's many career highlights since moving to New Zealand with her family in 1990 include setting up the first Korean banking service in New Zealand.
As a branch manager at ASB Bank she saw the need among the Korean community for cultural guidance in the business and banking world.
A desire to keep learning and to help people was a driving factor in stepping up to fill the gap, the former teacher and nurse says.
Although her daughters describe her as a workaholic, Mrs Kim says it's really her positive attitude that has gotten her so far.
"I do things with a big smile," she says.
After 10 years building up her financial knowledge and establishing the Korean banking service she opened her own mortgage and insurance brokerage company.
Two years later she began to produce the award-winning Business and Property Journal, a Korean language business publication aimed at educating Koreans both here and overseas about investments in New Zealand.
Mrs Kim says her work bridging the gap between the New Zealand and Korean business community is all about creating jobs for the next generation.
A woman with North Shore business links was made a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit.
Diane Foreman owns the Emerald Inn in Takapuna and she says she was surprised to receive her honour.
"I was incredibly proud and very grateful, very humbled. It's very unusual for businesswomen to be acknowledged and I think it's fantastic that I was, I'm very grateful," Ms Foreman says.
She quit education aged 15 and found herself a solo mum in her 20s after the end of her first marriage.
After struggling as a typist and waitress while raising her children, she married multimillionaire Bill Foreman, then proved her worth working in his Trigon business.
In 1996 she single-handedly managed the sale of the company for $130 million.
Ms Foreman separated from her retired husband in 2006 and bought out his stake in the Emerald Group.
In 2009 she was named Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year, judged a "natural entrepreneur who is astute, tireless, deliberate and planned in her approach".
She employs more than 4000 people in 29 countries through various businesses in diverse Emerald Group. These include executive recruitment through Emergent, icecream through New Zealand Natural and other brands such as Kapiti, Chateau Premium Heavenly Treats, Killinchy Gold and Lite Licks and the boutique Emerald Inn at Takapuna.
She is worth an estimated $175 million according to the Rich List.

I always find it remarkable that out of the woodwork, a member of mmorpg.com for many many years with two whole posts, dedicates one of their posts to trolling a game they're clearly not interested in.
It's been said over and over again however I'd like to confirm that the kickstarter is something the community wanted us to do and we are very grateful for their help.
To innovate you need to take risks. I've gladly made an investment into the project and I'll never regret doing so. I've only ever committed what I'm happy to commit and I'm having a blast watching the game develop.
I am in a more privileged position though being able to see detailed designs, models and art ahead of time but I think I'd still be pretty keen if I didn't ;)
Why should I be excited?
General Discussion « Embers of Caerus
May I ask, given you've been here since 2008 and only made three posts, what made you post a thread expressing your concern with hype for our game?
Why should you get excited? There is no other game out there right now, or who have made any annoucements regarding development of an open world sandbox MMO without a focus on all our PvP. Sure it's in our game, but it's not central.
Why should you get excited? We have a development team of over fifty dedicated and passionate people who are making the game of their dreams. We have turned down negotiations with investors that would compromise the vision we have for creating that game that sandbox games have been waiting for.
I can't make you excited, and it's not what we're here to do. If you'd love to contribute to the development of a game like you've never had the opportunity to do before, then drop by our forums. Otherwise, I'd love to see you become a fan when we're finished with development.
This reminds me of
General Discussion « Embers of Caerus
We raised $46050 for an investor prototype because that's what our community wanted us to do. There is a market for open world sandbox MMOs. We will not go micro-transaction as it goes completely against our vision and everything we hope to achieve. We've turned this down already.
I'm not sure what you're basing your information on either. You state that the initial $25 000 far exceeds the cost of required licenses. I'm not sure what special deals you have but $25 000 covered our minimum operating costs. The extra pledges have allowed us to look at some additional middleware and we're excited to now be developing an outstanding prototype.
Hopefully we'll see you as an active subscriber in a few years, but until then, I don't think I can say anything else to convince you that hasn't already been said multiple times by our directors.

We agree - we don't understand why it hasn't been done, but we're doing it! They had Seers in UO however they didn't have the tools to do something of this scale. A game like MO had the potential but it wasn't built in as a core capability at the design or early development stages.
This is one of our core features so it's a pretty big deal to us.
Deal breakers?
General Discussion « Embers of Caerus
Isn't grinding for gear a core activity of every themepark MMORPG out there? I don't mean that critically, just that I haven't heard people talk about our systems like that before. In all the themepark games I've played, you basically go through the game to get better gear each time.
Our game certainly isn't easy but we haven't released much information on our economy and crafting systems yet so I'm just not sure where the grinding thing is coming from. Are you meaning because you need someone to gather resources and craft items which you can lose if you die? If so, you can get those items back, providing they haven't been looted.
The idea is to balance it out so that death is painful but not so much that you rage-quit.

It's definately meant to feel like DMs from the D&D days. Our leader writer Mark Hope has worked on some very cool compaigns in that regard.
Doesn't it seem..
General Discussion « Embers of Caerus
You're clearly a die hard Darkfall plan and there's absolutely nothing anyone is ever going to be able to do to convince you that a Sandbox MMO can be done better. Darkfall is a very twitch based heavily PvP focused game which isn't what we're trying to create.
We'll certainly have PvP however we're not trying to be PvP-Centric.
Regarding the concept artist, we have quite a few and what I think you're referring to is quite old. I will be releasing a piece of outstanding concept art of a create in about twelve hours that I think looks just amazing.
The images in the banner are being replaced. The woman, Cassandra, has already been completely redone and it looks brilliant. Members of our 'Platinum club' can already see it but I can't release it yet. The man, Ursor, is also being redone.
Regarding out in game graphics, we have done a few videos and they look pretty good. That's what you should be looking at if you really want to compare in game graphics. You could also look at the render of our mountains or houses if you like.
What's listed as 'screenshots' on this site are concept art.
Regarding Kickstarter, this is something we were asked to do by the community and it helps us with a licensing agreement to create an investor prototype. We also have a 'give a buck about sandbox gaming' campaign though to even just get a dollar from sandbox fans because it shows there is a market for this type of gaming.
Most investors are comfortable with themepark MMOs based on established IP because it's easy to sell. It doesn't matter what you make, if you are licensed to call it a star wars product, it will sell. Crowd sourcing is a risk but it's also an opportunity.
I hope that, even though you're not interested in investing with us at the moment, in a few years time we're able to blow you away with what we've achieved. What you're basing your judgement on though is the risk we've taken by engaging with the MMO community so early in development. Other MMO developers don't do that, but we really want your contribution and your feedback on our systems.

For the sake of clarification, Romtin is a fan and not part of our Development team. Members of the Forsaken Studios team will usually identify themselves as such when representing the company.
We understand that Embers of Caerus can't be for everyone - but we also know that it's the game that so many people have been waiting for, and something we're truely proud to be part of.
Talk to you soon!

Launched on the Microsoft booth at NAB, ContentAgent-XR is the latest in the popular line of encoding products from London, UK, based ROOT6 Technology. New high-performance hardware and a third-generation GPU-accelerated capture, playback and transcode engine, SQL database and DRM client/server implementation, combine to create a solution for providing secured deliverables in an SD, HD or DI pipeline.
Building on the original SD version, ContentAgent-XR facilitates the automated capture, playback, encoding, and global delivery of multi-format, multi-resolution digital media. Material may be imported from any source and transcoded to any format, including AVC, MXF, Avid's DNxHD and VC-1. Encoded media can be accessed through the built-in web server or delivered by email, ftp, MPEG-2 and WMV HD or output to SD and HD video.
XR's integral SQL database engine enables flexible user, media, and template management in addition to multi-machine distributed encoding. Additional new features include single-click web-based asset sharing, the incorporation of a logo burn-in facility on any encoded or transcoded stream, and high quality PAL/NTSC standards conversion. Security is assured by the addition of a fully configured client/server implementation of Windows Media DRM encryption, including user authentication.
The unique provision of 2K DPX-to-2K WMV transcoding means that the massive files normally associated with 2K digital-intermediates may now be easily and securely distributed via the Internet for viewing by database-defined, authorized production staff. To deliver the performance required for HD encoding, XR utilizes hardware acceleration from Tarari.

Reflections on the effects of capitalism and latent puritanism on the working class and the accused.
Brown Sugar- is written by Angie Cee for Fresh Radio itsfreshradio.com
Some in our society are more outraged over the destruction of buildings than they are about the state sanctioned destruction of human lives. Like, how did we get here? I took a trip through my thoughts to examine a few possibilities. Some violence is okay in our society, some groups are allowed to respond with rage. However we have never been, we're told violence is not a solution and that it is counterproductive. Last time I checked no one was spitting that rhetoric at the Dept of Defense but ok. When we watch footage from the 1950's and 1960's local and federal officials loveeeeeeeed to tell African Americans not to gather and not to march and not to fight back. However I missed when they gave that message to the Klan and other citizens who were actively murdering and terrorizing us. But we gotta chill? I feel like the narrative hasn't changed much. We need to calm down but no one is telling police forces hey maybe you shouldn't be so quick to harass, chase down and shoot people huh? Why because I realized people largely believe we deserve it. They are blind and dumb to the fact that we are targeted and wrongfully arrested on a frequent basis. When you hear people say well if you don't want to get shot don't run from the police, you just gotta take a moment and unpack what they're really saying and thinking there. The fact that we have to share the world with such ignorance and disregard for the truth is enough to make you want to HOLLER. I feel like I'm pretty much alternating between different shades of anger with bursts of happy and chill. That's not healthy. So l decided to write to vent some of my frustration and help myself sort through the madness.
I've been in deep thought since we lost Trayvon Martin. I've experienced collective trauma with my social media community with each woman and man lost at the hands of law enforcement and otherwise. I've examined events and reactions with the twitters, rebutted folks who have all kinds ideas about violence, racism, and other related issues. Basically I'm tired. Tired and angry. The people on the ground in these cities and online are tired and angry. The families and the communities who lost these brothers and sisters are TIRED and ANGRY and NUMB all at once. But there are many people online and on the news who don't "understand" our anger and our rage. Then there are those who understand but don't think violence is a valid response. Here's the thing, I think it's possible to vary our responses to these atrocities. So I say express the rage and while that's happening if you wanna pray then pray. And while we're at it, if you think the community should organize and contact legislature then do allllll of that. We don't have to diss one to give value to another, they are all NECESSARY.
Look at the statistics for Freddie Gray's Baltimore neighborhood. Besides excessive policing these neighborhoods rarely receive any support from the cities they live in. It's criminal. On top of this layer racism and years of discrimination and you have rage that has been simmering for centuries. Why are the people of Baltimore so angry? The real question is why aren't you JUST as angry? If you know me then you know violence is NOT my default. And while I'm not personally violent I will by no means tell people that their violence is counterproductive or that people in power will take them less serious because of it. That's nonsense in my opinion. ( I mean the majority of businesses and corporations have insurance, so really we're upset about the appearance of destruction and the inconvenience of it all?) It just seems to me like someone is always concerned with our violence and not the violence being perpetrated on us. The violence that seems state sanctioned and all too common. The violence that we are reacting to seems to be brushed over and explained away. And really it's time we find a way (or a few ways) to combat the root causes of our protests and our rage. Build, march, rage, post, legislate, petition, and yes PRAY.

2014 #BrownSugarApproved Albums!
I listen to a lot of music. That is an understatement but it will do. From Hip Hop to Rock Soul to things that don't have genres I'm pretty much listening to music all day. Here's my wrap up of the Brown Sugar Approved albums from the year that was 2014.
Jean Grae # 5– If your rap name is a super hero then you should be pretty frickin amazing. Jean is my friend in my head and she's in my Top 5. In 2014 she made inroads into everything from comedy, to starting a cooking column on Jezebel's website. I'm a fan of this lady's brain. Just when you thought she was done showing us her layers of awesome out came # 5. 5 is an EP of sexy time music where Jean was SINGING, and singing well. I like # 5 and I think you'll dig it too.
Faves- Underneath You, and Nuthin were stand outs for me.
Condola & The Stoop Kids The Letter 9– Clair Huxtable's daughter Condola Rashad is a thespian and a dope singer. She released a funky rock soul album this year and it got plenty plays on my ipod. I loved the theatrical nature of some of the songs. The intro is vocally genius and the whole project felt like she was having a really good time. Great writing and relevant subject matter. I'm here for it.
Faves- Stoop Kids Intro, Hej Hej, & Pictures Don't Lie.
LeCrae's Anomaly- I wrote on piece on LeCrae shortly after his first 106&Park appearance. I stated that his brand of hip hop was necessary on the current landscape. So when Anomaly was released I picked it up thinking it would be cool but the album exceeded my expectations. The tracks take the listener to the intersection of social justice and self-improvement. It's great to get you hyped, it puts you in deep though plus I can play the whole album in my classroom, always a win.
Faves- Welcome To America, All I Need Is You, & Broken featuring Kari Jobe
Algebra Blessett's Recovery- Her debut Purpose has been in my permanent rotation for years. So when I learned there was a new album coming out I was torn, I wanted it to be amazing but I wondered if I would connect with it like I did the 1st album. I gave it a Brown Sugar listening party to see how it was. I dug it. I like when artists take time to experience life and develop music rather than just pump out studio crap to have a presence. Algebra has an authentic and loyal fan base and we appreciated what came from Recovery. It's r&b, it's soul and it's awesome.
Faves- Writer's Block, Paper Heart, & I'll Be Ok.
9th Wonder Presents Jamla is The Squad- Somehow between being a Harvard Fellow and now teaching at NCCU producer and DJ 9th Wonder put together a compilation of dope emcees & singers from his Jamla label and elsewhere. Really nice riding music.
Faves- Be Inspired (Pete Rock, LeCrae, & RAPSODY) ,Love Unconditional (Heather Victoria & Jadakiss), & God Willin (Actual Proof & TP)
Pharrell Williams' GIRL – VA's golden one did not disappoint with an album that was hip hop at its heart re: content and sampling but packaged in Pharrell's own genre, a little R&B, a little electronica, all dope. This album also holds my most played track of the year LOST QUEEN. And sidenote I never tired of hearing Happy, cuz if we let trap music nonsense play 30 times a day then we can let this song with a great message that makes people smile get some spins and not crap on it.
Faves- Lost Queen, Brand New featuring Justin Timberlake, Know Who You Are featuring A Keys.
Elevation Worship's Wake Up The Wonder- Live from the Hornets' newly redesigned Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte Elevation Church recorded an album of original tunes from their amazing writers and musicians. I was at the recording and loved the songs and the vibe, I couldn't wait to preorder the album. Listening to it is like reliving the experience, super uplifting and transcendent. Singer/Songwriter type tunes & Rock music with heart and soul.
Faves- The King Is Among Us, & Ever Glorious, Look How He Lifted Me.
Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings' Give The People What They Want- Heard this playing at Starbucks and fell in love. It's big band brass, it's New Orleans, it's real hard singing about heartbreak and love, and everything in between. I still need to see her and the band live. If I were a rapper trust and believe I'd be sampling a few of these tracks. So so good.
Faves- Stranger to My Happiness, Making Up and Breaking Up, Retreat
Sam Smith's In The Lonely Hour- I kept singing Stay With Me, like nonstop lol. I decided on a whim to see if the rest of the album was as catchy. Given I love some Adele and Emeli Sande it was easy to assume I'd dig the album. In The Lonely Hour did not disappoint. Writing and Vocal win, happy for him and his success.
Faves- Latch featuring Disclosure (not on the actual album but sooooo dope compared to the acoustic version), Stay With Me, & Restart
Honorable Mentions and Addendum
-Aloe Blacc's Lift Your Sprit, Fred Hammond's I Will Trust, and finally The Roots' …and then you shoot your cousin. Cool enough to purchase but I need to spend some more time with them before I welcome them into the cannon.
-Beyonce's self-titled album is not in this list because it came out at the end of 2013 but you know I'm here for the Queen and played lots and lots of her music lol
-Mali Music's Mali Is album was a late addition to my ipod this year but I really really like it. So if you need some introspective writing and crazy vocals listen to Ready Aim, Fight For You, Heavy Love. I likes a lot.
Okay so of course after writing this piece I want to go listen to all of this all over again. Ha. More Brown Sugar in 2015, hopefully. Be sure to check the #brownsugarapproved hastag on IG for my picks of music, and film and stuff throughout the year.

8 things I learned from The Cosby Show: One lesson for each season J plus your favorite Cosby Show memories.
-Angie C
I grew up in Brooklyn,NY in the 1980s and '90s in a loving household with a married mom and dad. In my early years I didn't think there was anything different about this. My mother is a registered nurse and my dad worked as a NYC sanitation worker. We lived comfortably, traveled, and visited museums and bookstores. Education mattered and good grades, manners, and decorum were expected. As I grew older I became keenly aware that this was not the case in many other homes. However for me this was my very normal life. But to many people who looked like me this kind of life was anything but normal.
Before I realized my reality was not everyone else's I innocently enjoyed The Cosby Show assuming my most of my peers did as well. The Cosby Show was like a college course on life, a course I didn't even realize I was signed up for. Eventually I realized The Cosby Show type lifestyle wasn't everyone's reality, but I had no clue there was so much backlash. Many in my generation felt the show was a farce and didn't represent what many inner city brown 80s babies lived through. I can understand that but I think the show provided so much that people from any socio-economic group could have learned from the shows many lessons Cosby himself embedded in show. I decided I wanted to share why I loved the show and why I think the lessons taught in the show were universal.
In many cases the material on the show both commented on existing norms and thoughts while at the same time shaping a way of thinking about specific topics. Underneath the surface layer of the kids' or Cliff's shenanigans, the real "lesson" was about living a well-rounded life, communicating with your family members, and becoming your best self. Here are my top 8 life lessons from the Huxtables-
1. Culture- Pshhhh where to start? Family and Fashion- I loved how greeting a visiting family member or friend was an event in their home. Sitting on the couch to catch up and glean from the visitor. And 80s/90s fashion courtesy of Denise and Vanessa.Yassss. Playing records in the evenings, and celebrating special occasions. Everything!
2. Jazz-A love for the art form (and vinyl) and the greats popped up throughout the series. (Plus all the entertainers and artists who guest starred over the years.)
3. Art- I learned about auctions and the importance of heaving meaningful art in your home. (The painting in the living room)
4. Feminism- Claire, Claire, Claire. Long before I was old enough to know who bell, Audre, or Gloria were; Claire laid down the foundation of equality in my mind. She let me know that my accomplishments and my voice mattered in spite of and because of my gender. Lessons that came through conversations with Bud (and the thoughts of his older brother smh lol), and Elvin really shaped my thinking on why feminism was needed and what true (not abt man bashing) feminism could look like. Thank you Claire!
5. Possible Professions- Claire was a busy and successful layer in NYC, this spoke volumes. Dr. Huxtable was in obstetrics (we learned how demanding that kind of on call schedule was, and how important a good doctor was. Plus we saw handymen, musicians, teachers, entrepreneurs, and so many more.
6. Storytelling- Many, many of the episodes were centered on Cliff or some other family member telling a story. Some were significant in a historical sense, about how something or someone came to be, while others were simple like Rudy explain her day or a dilemma. We saw families gather to listen to these stories. We say closeness being nurtured. Storytelling is such an important tradition, one I hope we continue to nurture in the present.
7. Family- The writers of the show and the creator, Mr. Cosby, took great pains to ensure that many of the parts of growing up in a big family were highlighted. I was only child, so for me I was able to learn about that entire foreign side of life. Sharing clothing, giving rides, breaking toys, growing close, and growing apart. The dynamics and characterization were so well developed on the show. I also loved how one could also gather parenting advice from Clair and Cliff (that could be a book in itself).
8. College Culture- Even if it were never mentioned in my house, watching The Cosby Show meant that I knew about college and its importance. Simple things like Cliff's tees, sweaters, and pins, to stories of Hillman, visits from professors, and trips to reunions. All of those elements nurtured a love for academia and also for the social side and lastings relationships that could be made at a University. The emphasis on college led to one of THE best spin offs in TV land, A Different World *hums theme song".
So yeah those are the lessons I got from the show/course/history book known as The Cosby Show. I had so many specific show memories but I thought I'd let you share yours across the Brown Sugar social media platforms. Thank you for the outpouring of memories. Here are your favorites (Yall love some Theo stories lol)-
"Theo in the real world when they cleaned out his room!" – @brendassun
"Gordon Gartrelle!!!" Lol- @taleeheat
"Theo with his earring"- @aldonell
"For me it was the one when they made Theo pay rent w/ the Monopoly money"-@olderj
"Theo's prom night gone all wrong, Dr. Huxtable's dance-off with Rudy's tap dance instructor, Sondra and Elvin announcing they aren't going back to school but are instead working at a wilderness store, Cockroach shaving his head, Claire singing at Hillman college with their choir, the family singing with Stevie Wonder, Denise designing a terrible shirt for Theo, there are too many lol" – @cosmicinsanity
"When Theo wanted that Gordon Gartrelle shirt and Denise made him a terrible replica" –@bestablished73
"Please help….the lip syncing episode that included the whole family in tribute to the grandparents….I'm sure this adds to comments in agreement already posted ????"- @jermainelewis
"The very first episode where Cliff schools Theo about life decisions and getting an education–that really set the tone for the rest of the show's 8 year run. The Gordon Gartrelle fiasco, LOL. Tailwind Turner and Combustible Huxtable–the track & field episode. All the men were pregnant, HA!!!!! And the very last episode….Phenomenal". – Shawn Allison II
"I loved many many episodes but the one in which a group of elderly women became upset about the dented cans sold in their neighborhood store. The store in a suburban neighborhood had better selection and no dents. The wen formed a collective, made a plan and took a bunch of pennies to the store. Their actions held up the lines and caused a huge hassle. The women won their case and were granted better selections. Social Justice, community organizing, black women agency, and much more all in one episode. I'm sure I left out details & maybe mixed some things up but you probably remember that show"- Chaka S. Holley
"The Real World [episode], when Denise tried to make Theo a Gordon Gartrell shirt. LOL—that cracks me ALL the way up and the episodes with Lena Horne & BB King (loved hearing Kenny and Vanessa sing the blues)"- Tamarra J
"Me Say Ey, Mon"- Ms Pj aka Pj Leslie
"Way too many to list but a few notable mentions are: The Biiiig Fun/Wretched episode, the episode where the family tried to teach Theo about real life by pretending to be his landlord etc. and the episode where Cliff and Claire visited Sandra and Elvin's raggedy apartment! I also loved any episode in which Claire delivered one of her signature reads or when she spoke Spanish! – Ugh she is just everything. I love the Cosby show!"- Sabrina Lewis-Brown
Perfect Quote to end on! We love The Cosby Show! Its memories and lessons are ever present with us some 20 years later. Now that's a lasting impact! Thank you Bill Cosby, the producers/writers and the beloved CAST– Bill Cosby, Phylicia Rashad, Sabrina Le Beauf, Lisa Bonet, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Tempestt Bledsoe, Keshia Knight Pulliam, Geoffrey Owens, Raven-Symone, Joseph C. Phillips,
Erika Alexander.

Long story short, Albertson's had a steal on cereal. If you worked it just right, (with coupons, nothing illegal) I was able to buy 5 boxes of Post cereal for 1.80total -over and over again. (YAY!!!). So I am up to my ears in cereal, plus we don't eat it often, but cereal is eaten.
Can you dry pack it in sealed cans?

As of Wednesday, September 5, 2012
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
There's not much to wrap up for a season like this.
The Gwinnett Braves ended their fourth season in Lawrenceville way out of first, way out of the playoffs and with way more losses then wins -- a first for the Gwinnett franchise.
To wit: The team ripped off a franchise record 15 straight losses through June, a month that saw just five wins in 30 games. In that stretch the team went from being three games back and in second place to 11 games back an in last. They never fully recovered. By Aug. 24, the team was eliminated from playoff contention and finished 62-82 on the season.
But minor league baseball is a weird operation. It's not just, or hardly at all, about wins and losses. The real question is who got better and how what did the team provide the major-league club.
There was not a Freddie Freeman show of exponential growth, but Gwinnett had its share of individuals shine.
Tops on the board of consistency is Jose Constanza. Last year's fall sensation with the Atlanta Braves captured the International League's batting title with a .314 average in 88 games. He topped a Gwinnett All-Star from 2011, Mauro Gomez, for the honor and both are currently sitting in big league dugouts; Constanza in Atlanta and Gomez in Boston. Constanza ripped off a 22-game hitting streak, a franchise mark and the best in the IL since 2007.
And Constanza didn't just hit. The native of the Dominican Republic reached base in 38 straight games, coming 10 shy of the the franchise record of 48 set in 2009 by Wes Timmons.
Constanza wasn't alone in showing some individual fortitude in spite of a trying season. Ernesto Mejia was named the league's rookie of the year, leading the IL with 92 RBIs, 152 hits, 258 total bases and 514 at-bats. The speedy Luis Durango led the league with 46 stolen bases.
But in a losing season, there were plenty of troubles as well. And the trouble started with the regression of Julio Teheran.
Rookie of the year in the IL a season ago, the Braves' top pitching prospect struggled with consistency all season. A season after he lost just three games, the right-hander posted a 7-9 record with a 5.08 ERA. Compare that to 2011's 2.55. The coaches talked about his youth and his tinkering mechanics, and Teheran showed flashes of the pitcher he is supposed to be. He threw a complete game seven-hitter on June 3 and strung together 10 scoreless innings early in the year. But he also failed to get out of the fourth inning just as often, making every start a mystery.
His counterpart, Randall Delgado, another top pitching prospect, began the year in the big leagues but ended it with a 4-3 Class AAA record and a 4.06 ERA. Jair Jurrjens, a major league all-star in 2011, started 14 times for the G-Braves, being optioned twice from Atlanta.
But all three pitchers are in Atlanta now with Constanza and relievers Cory Gearrin and Peter Moylan. Moylan showed improvement in limited Class AAA action after battling back from shoulder surgery, and Gearrin earned pitcher of the year honors for the G-Braves with nine saves and a 2.30 ERA in his first minor league all-star season.
There's nowhere to go but up for the G-Braves season from here. If those on the 40-man can make an impact in Atlanta, the big Braves may get somewhere the G-Braves couldn't -- the postseason.
More like this story
- Gearrin has rare bad outing in G-Braves loss ( August 29, 2012 )
- IL All-Star among Braves' signees ( November 23, 2010 )
- G-BRAVES NOTES: Durango, Constanza make for speedy top of lineup ( May 12, 2012 )
- Gearrin removed from All-Star roster for rest ( July 7, 2012 )
- Durango can't run G-Braves past Bison ( May 9, 2012 )

Eck manages a property for me in Lawrence. I live 2 hours+ away. They have been extremely trust worthy, are very on top of all tenant complaints, and are very quick to do repairs. I am 100% pleased with them and would highly recommend them to others.
Brennan Smith

Don't fall for the fake reviews, Eck wrote them themselves to balance out the all the one star ratings. They go beyond the typical Lawrence landlord; they will find any and every way possible to gouge you for money. If you make the mistake of renting from them, be forewarned that they will stiff you on late fees and take your deposit, even if you make a good effort at cleaning the place. We left the place without any damage and only a tid bit messy because our vacuum broke down and they felt justified in charging us over a thousand dollars upon move out. Consider other land lords before Eck and may god have mercy on their souls.

They are the worst landlords you will ever have here in Lawrence. No matter what they will take all your deposit even if the house was the exact same as when you started renting. I recommend never renting from them unless you are in dire need.

they won't fix anything, trumped up charges upon move out, very unprofessional
A Google User
Aug 26, 2011
While we rented from Eck Real Estate, our apartment got a serious spider infestation. We called and told them how bad it was (and it got pretty bad), but they NEVER came and sprayed. Furthermore, the locks on the downstairs windows were all broken. A repairman did come out and look at them, but he never came back to fix them--so our place could have easily been broken into at any time. Once, our rent was two days late, and they charged us $50 for it (I guess we got charged $30 just for them calling to tell us the rent was late AFTER we'd already sent the check out). The only thing that they did for us was fix the broken garage door, and it did get fixed in a timely manner. They withheld $200 from our deposit to clean the carpets, too; their lease states that you don't even have the choice to clean the carpet yourself, which I think might be illegal. They didn't deduct anything from the deposit for other cleaning stuff, but we left the place really clean--it was actually quite a bit cleaner when we moved out than when we moved in. Overall, I'm disappointed with them--they felt free to ignore us when we were fighting off spiders, but certainly didn't let any little thing like a late rent payment from us slide. Honestly, I wouldn't mind paying the late fee--but $30 for calling us to ask where the rent check was? That's a bit much--especially considering their negligence in maintaining the property's locks and insect control.

I have bought the Almond and Hemp fragrance and this time opted for the Black Soap which seems to have great properties. I use it (in dilution) for my shower wash, hand cleaner and shampoos. For my shampoos I just use 1/4 cup of Dr Woods Pure Black Soap with 1/4 cup of filtered water (or tap water), I add 1 tsp of vegetable glycerine and 1 tsp of oil and you can add a few drops of essential oils too. Or you can make a double batch in which case 1 tsp of glycerine and 1 tsp of light oil (use a pure oil like Olive oil or rapeseed oil or a light colored oil) and this might be enough. It's of course much more runny than your average shampoo but I use this all the time and you can make a fresh batch. Much better than all those shampoos with toxic ingredients in them. I started doing this when I saw on ewg.org that most shampoos were filled with toxic ingredients. I decided to start making my own. When I use the almond and hemp castille soap, I don't use any essential oils as the almond fragrance is quite strong and nice.
Best stuff ever!!!!!!

I enjoy this soap because it has a great scent and I feel clean without being my skin feeling dry or like it has a film on it.

In our country Poland, there is a strong demand not to change to religious state. It is of course a hoax because there is not move to make such thing. 60% of Israeli student who attend religious school must be a shock to polish mass opinion. You are a religious country indeed.
