Battlecross Posts "Push Pull Destroy" Video
Metal Injection is currently hosting the premiere of the debut music video from Detroit, MI's Battlecross for the track "Push Pull Destroy," the first single off of the band's debut album "Pursuit of Honor." Check out the clip in the player below. "Pursuit of Honor" is due out August 2nd, 2011.
The video for Push Pull Destroy was shot by Roy Warner Creative & Videography on location at the Yankee Air Museum, located on the grounds of the historic Willow Run Airport. It was at Willow Run where Henry Ford mobilized his manufacturing base to contribute to the war efforts by mass producing the B-24 Liberators that provided American Air Power to win WWII for the Allies. The band also commented on the clip:
"The video was shot in front of a number of military aircraft, including a B-52 Stratofortress and a C7 Caribou with a special appearance by the B-17 Yankee Lady, one of the only ten surviving flyable B-17s in the world. The Yankee Air Museum is the home to the Yankee Lady, long considered to be the most beautifully restored of all of the remaining flyable planes. This picture is of particular significance because only a day prior to the video shoot, the B-17 Liberty Belle crash landed outside of Chicago, IL and was destroyed. The crew exited safely before the plane was engulfed by flames---another testament to her strength and service to protect its crew.
"Portions of the video were shot at the former Packard Automobile Plant in Detroit, MI. Long abandoned and in ruins, the shoot location is reminiscent of the destruction in Germany by the mighty eighth air force of WWII."

Battlecross Posts New Album Artwork
Detroit Michigan's Battlecross announced its signing with Metal Blade Records in May. The band has now released the artwork and track listing for the full-length debut "Pursuit of Honor," which can be viewed below. "Pursuit of Honor" is due out on August 2nd in North America.
The band comments on album artwork that was created by Josh Schroeder: "The album artwork for Pursuit of Honor was created by the same mastermind who co-produced, mixed, and mastered this album, Josh Schroeder. He made a few merch designs for us in the past and we knew we wanted him to create the album art as well, first of all to keep everything cohesive and relevant, also because we love his unique style and vision, and lastly because he knows us so well. We feel the artwork depicts a strong sense of power and aggression with a leader among warriors. The Pursuit of Honor refers to the ongoing battle within us and the struggle to overcome, to crush all obstacles, and prevail at all costs."
Also available today is the band's first single Push Pull Destroy. Vocalist Gumby commented on the single: "When I sing this song I think about how hard it was to even get to this point and the hard road still to come. It's about overcoming all and coming out on the other side stronger. Push Pull Destroy is in your face with a blend of intense rage and epic power from the first scream to the ending bass line."

Geographic Range
The California sea hare, Aplysia californica, is found along the California coast from Humboldt Bay in northern California to the Gulf of California, Baja California, Mexico. (Angeloni, et al., 2003)
- Biogeographic Regions
- pacific ocean
Aplysia californica is in greatest abundance within sheltered rocky shore coastal environments. Distribution by depth depends on the specimen's age. Juveniles occupy deeper waters (up to 18 meters) whereas adults primarily prefer shallow water within the middle and lower intertidal zones. ("California Brown Sea Hare", 2014)
- Habitat Regions
- temperate
- saltwater or marine
- Other Habitat Features
- intertidal or littoral
- Range depth
- 18 (high) m
- 59.06 (high) ft
Physical Description
Aplysia californica is a large mollusk, capable of growing as long as 40 cm and weighing as much as 2.3 kg; however, most average 20 cm long and 1 kg in weight. Body coloration is cryptic, and generally ranges from reddish-brown to greenish-brown. Coloration of A. californica depends largely on the particular species of algae fed upon by an individual. The overall body texture is delicately fleshy. The head region bears four tentacles. Two are on the top of the head behind the eyes as well as two in front of the face slightly above the mouth. The species' nickname (sea hare) is due to these tentacles which resemble rabbit ears. On the dorsum of the bilaterally symmetrical body are two wing-like folds called parapodia which cover the gills but allow water to pass through. As a type of large sea slug, A. californica lacks a hard calcified outer shell. However, it does possess a flat internal shell which encases the internal organs including the heart. On the underside of the body is a large muscular foot used for locomotion. ("California Brown Sea Hare", 2014; "The Rosenstiel School Of Marine and Atmospheric Science", 2009)

Aplysia californica rapidly develops over the course of a year. After larvae hatch from egg masses, each free-swimming microorganism is known as a trochophore larva. These larvae swim with hair-like cilia. The larvae drift for 34 days or more until they settle on red algae and undergo metamorphosis into the adult form. After metamorphosis, the feeding juveniles rapidly grow in weight for three months. After 120 days, juveniles may become sexually mature. (Angeloni, et al., 2003; "California Brown Sea Hare", 2014; Pawlik, 1989)
- Development - Life Cycle
- metamorphosis
Aplysia californica is hermaphroditic, meaning each animal has both female and male sex organs. Sea hares mate promiscuously in multiple events with conspecifics, when individuals locate each other through chemical cues, congregate, and form a "daisy chain". During a daisy chain, several sea hares line up and each animal may be either receiving or delivering sperm (or both) based on their current sex and position within the chain. Mating season occurs during spring and summer. ("The Rosenstiel School Of Marine and Atmospheric Science", 2009)
- Mating System
- polygynandrous (promiscuous)
The eggs are fertilized within a sperm storage cavity also known as the seminal receptacle before they are laid in bright pink, long gelatinous strings. These noodle-like egg masses may hold millions of embryos. Eggs usually hatch after approximately twelve days, releasing planktonic larvae. Mating occurs during spring and summer. Egg laying is initiated by copulation. ("The Rosenstiel School Of Marine and Atmospheric Science", 2009)
- Key Reproductive Features
- semelparous
- seasonal breeding
- simultaneous hermaphrodite
- sexual
- induced ovulation
- fertilization
- oviparous
- Breeding interval
- Aplysia californica mates once a year.
- Breeding season
- Mating takes place during spring and summer.
- Range number of offspring
- 80 million (high)
- Range gestation period
- 10 to 12 days
- Average age at sexual or reproductive maturity (female)
- 1 years
- Average age at sexual or reproductive maturity (male)
- 1 years
After an individual A. californica lays its egg mass, which likely contains provisioning, there is no further investment in the offspring. ("The Rosenstiel School Of Marine and Atmospheric Science", 2009)
- Parental Investment
- provisioning
Sea hares' lifespans are usually fairly short as they typically live only a year. Most sea hares perish after reproduction. However, because water temperatures delay reproduction, cooler waters can somewhat lengthen lifespan. ("California Brown Sea Hare", 2014)
- Average lifespan
Status: wild
- 1 years

Status: captivity

One of the more notable behavioral aspects noticed in sea hares is their ability to release a deep purple ink from within the parapodia when threatened. The deep purple color is derived from pigments within the red algae in their diet. The ink has been shown to be distasteful and acts as a defense mechanism to ward off predators. In order to avoid being attacked, sea slugs are mainly active at night. Sea hares give a cautionary avoidance response when in contact with certain sea stars and predaceous opisthobranchs. This response consists of withdrawing the head rapidly and engaging in an escape response. (Angeloni, et al., 2003; "Opisthobranch parasites - the copepod Ismaila", 2010; Nusnbaum and Derby, 2010)
- Average territory size
- unknown cm^2
Home Range
Aplysia californica has no specific home range.
Communication and Perception
Sea hares congregate to mate, and thus they perceive conspecifics via tactile and chemical cues. These slugs have photoreceptors that detect variances in the intensity of white light. However, they are less able to identify red wavelengths. Overall, sea slugs respond more to chemical changes in seawater. A sensing structure located near the gills called the osphradium detects dissolved chemicals and is the major organ of olfaction. (Angeloni, et al., 2003)
- Other Communication Modes
- pheromones
Food Habits
Aplysia californica is a herbivore and primarily feeds on several kinds of red algae (Laurencia pacifica, Plocamium pacificum and Ceramium spp.) as well as sea lettuce (Ulva spp.) and eelgrass (Zostera marina) from within tidepools in the middle intertidal zone. Aplysia uses its toothed radula to graze attached algae. After the material has been temporarily stored in the esophagus, it is then passed through a muscular stomach lined with pyramidal teeth which further grind up the food matter. The food is then mixed with various digestive fluids and wastes are excreted out the anus located near the parapodia. The larvae obtain nourishment by consuming phytoplankton. (Angeloni, et al., 2003; Winkler and Dawson, 1963)
- Primary Diet
- algivore
- Plant Foods
- algae
- macroalgae
- phytoplankton
Due to their lack of an outer calcareous shell, sea hares utilize cryptic coloration, nocturnal behaviors, and ink release as defense mechanisms. Sea hares are also distasteful to many predators due to chemicals known as secondary metabolites which they create from chemicals obtained from their algal diet. This chemical adaptation also makes sea hare tissue somewhat toxic to certain animals and fairly effective against most predators. It has been discovered that the mucus covering the mantle also acts a deterrent against predatory crustaceans and some fish. Two of the main predators are the giant green sea anemone, Anthropleura xanthogrammica, and the ophistobranch slug, Navanax inermis. (Angeloni, et al., 2003; "Opisthobranch parasites - the copepod Ismaila", 2010)
- Anti-predator Adaptations
- cryptic
- Known Predators
- green sea anemone, Anthropleura xanthogrammica
- sea slug, Navanax inermis
Ecosystem Roles
Aplysia californica is a primary consumer due to its herbivorous diet of algae. As such, it is a key organism in the intertidal ecosystem, affecting the density and abundance of its algal prey. There is little specific information on parasitic symbiosis in A. californica, other than one report of a microsporidian protozoan infecting the nuclei of its neurons. Other shell-less opisthobranchs are known to serve as hosts for certain copepods in the family Splanchnotrophidae. ("Opisthobranch parasites - the copepod Ismaila", 2010; Krauhs, et al., 1979)
- protozoan, Microsporidium aplysiae
Economic Importance for Humans: Positive
Aplysia californica is a highly valuable laboratory animal especially in the field of neurobiology and more specifically in studying memory and learning behaviors. Sea hares possess the largest neurons in the animal kingdom, as well as very few of them, so it is feasible to identify the specific nerve cells responsible for specific mechanisms. ("California Brown Sea Hare", 2014)
- Positive Impacts
- research and education
Economic Importance for Humans: Negative
There are no known adverse effects of Aplysia californica on humans.
Conservation Status
Although there is no current management or conservation plan for this species, individuals are protected if they occur within the boundaries of marine protected areas.

Dadlabs Scores Webby Nod
By Daddy Clay Tuesday, April 8th, 2008
The 12th Annual Webby Awards, aka "The Online Oscars," has named DadLabs an "Official Honoree" in the category of Online Video How-to and DIY — which is pretty cool. It's a kind of honorable mention for shows that didn't get a nomination.
All good for us because the awards ceremony is in June, and that conflicts with our trip to Sweden. So we're cool with it. Really. We will certainly hang the cool badge they sent us on the front page of the website along with the Yahoo! Video award, and the handsome certificate will be used to cover the hole the rats have chewed in the studio walls (I do not exaggerate. My morning rituals include sweeping the turds off my desk.)
We're in very good company. The nominees and honorees are almost all produced by studios of one kind or another — CBS, HGTV, This Old House, Conde Nast, 60Frames. The Next New Networks Show "Threadbanger" got a nod. Lot of big boys in the field now. Obviously it's not about awards, but we are fighting to get noticed here among the tall trees. If you are interested, there are tons of cool online shows to be found on the Webby site, and one set of winners are determined by popular vote, so let your voice be heard.

I teach Italian and philosophy. This note is about learning a foreign language not only Italian. When you try to learn a foreign language never expect a systematic one-to one word corresponding translation. Dictionaries offer approximate translations of words that may behave quite differently within the language that you are studying. One example is the corresponding words in Italian of 'to have' and 'to be', that are 'avere; and 'essere'.
Up to a point it is true that you translate those words in such a maner but only up to a point. The auxiliary 'to have' in a past tense like, 'I have gone', is not translated in Italian with the verb 'avere' but with the verb 'essere': 'Io sono andato.
Just to mention other simple cases of indeterminacy, prepositions like of, on, to, at, about, through have translations that work only for some cases and not all cases in which they appear in English.

How many Masons do you know?
So my boyfriends favorite name is Mason. I like it, but it seems so darn popular! Popularity isn't a huge issue, but I prefer names that are less well known and have more history. But since it's his favorite, I could make it work.
The popularity still erks me though. So I was wondering how many of you guys actually know a Mason? Do you know several or a few? Do you hear it a lot? In 10 years, where do you think the name will be on the popularity charts?My Favorites~Boys~

I know two Masons who are each around 2 years old. Mason is a top 10 name in the USA and recently experienced a big spike in popularity, so it is definitely tied to a certain generation (2000s-2010s), versus names that are more timeless like William or David. In 10 years I expect that Mason will still be a popular name, although in 30 years it will probably have declined a lot in favor of a new trend. With that said, it is a very solid name. And because it's an occupation name, it doesn't sound made-up. I think it will age well and would be a perfectly respectable choice for a baby name.

The consensus (and expert opinion of Al Lutz) is that Luigi's Flying Tires' is a bust. What would have been a better attraction using the available space that the Imagineers could have built?
The consensus (and expert opinion of Al Lutz) is that Luigi's Flying Tires' is a bust. What would have been a better attraction using the available space that the Imagineers could have built?
Heres the main drawbacks for Luigis Flying Tires
1) Luigi isn't a memorable character in comparison to the Pixar world of amazing characters so there's o "It's Buzz!" appeal.
2) Riding on an air hockey puck was amazing and futuristic 40 years ago. But in 2012 then it's slow and boring.
3) It seems to only exist because Cars is such a shallow franchise that they couldn't think of anything else in radiator springs that could be a ride. (Which only points out how silly it is to build an entire land off a single location of a single movie)
This isn't a good idea, but You know those segway type machines you see the Incredibles riding around? id rather ride those in an Incredibles themed ride than Luigis tires. But to be honest I think anything would be better than what they put.
The ride is fun. Went last night. The crowd was excited by the ride. Some older couples clapped after it, and I don't think a single person didn't enjoy it. It is easy to get it moving fast if you think about what you are doing with your leaning. The problem is you can over lean and you bottom out. You just need to reduce your leaning just a bit.
The real problem with the ride is loading and unloading. People go and grab beach balls to hold. The loading and unloading for disabled, injured, anyone that can't step up takes forever. Not enough ride vehicles. All this means loading time if very slow.
So waiting two hours and then not figuring out how to move your tire equals unhappy person. 30 mnutes and knowing what you are doing equals more fun then mater.
Last edited by socalkdg; 06-10-2012 at 11:11 AM.
The floor should have tilted back and forth throughout the ride. So if you're having trouble making the tires move, you still get to go flying back and forth slamming into other tires or the walls.
In the quest for quality, I have no problem with the characters footing the bill.
I don't want to say ANYTHING could be better than this ride, but....anything could be better than this ride. You stretch and lean and it barely goes anywhere. Thumbs down.
They shouldn't have made it a Cars specific land. They should have named it "Radiator Springs" and just kept the desert/canyon theme. With the amount of land luigi's flying tires uses the replacement ride should be around a C-ticket. I think a spinner type ride would be a good addition to the park since it doesn't have any yet. This could even be car or airplane themed. They could have also made the land into a water play area if it would have been "springs" themed. My favorite idea however, would have been a train ride into the mountain, similar to Nature's Wonderland.
They could have just put a big pile of huge rubber tires, and kids would have a ball climbing all over it.
Imagine if they had a race track setup.. they could even simulate pitstops with your car being shaken up as they work on it, etc.

I told them... I stood there and told them, "Move Autopia to Carsland!... Autopia... Cars... Autopia... Cars... get it?! Autopia... Cars... do I have to bang your heads together?? Move the Autopia there and make the cars electric and styled as characters in the film, and have cars talk to the guest, saying funny things at random. And a junior version for the toddlers. Come on, let's do this!" But did they listen to me? Ha! They just sat there sipping their Frappucinos and playing with their iPads. I walked out.
Right now, I like what socalkdg has to say: it's a learning experience but it's fun once you get it. Maybe more guests need to figure it out first.
The tires are sort of fun, but totally lacking in imagination. Just about any ride with real Imagineering behind it would have been better. Heck, a plain old simple Fantasyland style dark ride that told one of Mater's Tall Tales would have been VERY well received and would have been so much better than an outdoor flat ride. AND it would have helped tell a story rather than just letting people float slowly on an air hockey table.
2 out of the 3 rides in Cars Land are outdoor flat rides. While Mater's is fun, I don't see the need for two such attractions in this land. Especially with a whole land of these minimally themed flat rides (Bugs Land) just next door. Had they built Mater's indoors with special effects and built a simple dark ride in place of Luigi's, that would have been spectacular!
This ride can not last forever in its current state. I'm almost sure that the lawyers will force operational and safety changes (or OSHA will).

IIT grads turn bizmen, dump big jobs

Rajeev Jayaswal & Chaitali Chakravarty , TNN
NEW DELHI: It's not lure of the lucre any more. Meet the freshly minted engineering graduates from IITs who are giving the Infosyses and Wipros a skip to build companies of their own. If the mood in the entrepreneur incubation camps set up at various IITs across the country is any indication, the start-up buzz has now shifted to the new 20-something fresh grads. It's different from their NRI seniors who turned entrepreneurs only after working with the IBMs and the Microsofts.

As O'Brien led the way, it wasn't long before we ran into Steve, who was riding his bike through the pitch-black tunnel that he calls home. He's a Las Vegas native who moved underground two years after a drug problem left him homeless. He guided us to the spot in the tunnel he shares with his fiancé Katherine, who moved in with him a year ago, after he agreed to stop using drugs.
"We fell in love…We want to get out of here, that's always our main goal. We don't want to live like this forever," he said. "We don't like living in the tunnels. We live here because we can, and we're not bothered by anyone. The police and people like that don't really know that we're down here. You know, it's a lot of out-of-sight, out-of-mind."
The couple has worked hard to make it as homey as possible.
"Just because we live outside doesn't mean we can't be comfortable," Steve said, showing off a makeshift shower he'd crafted from a water jug and a spout. "Our shower...works just fine…Need a little privacy, just put the curtain up."
Steve introduced us to some of their neighbors, like Phil, who has also battled addiction. He told us he lost his job about a year and half ago, when the economy started to sour.
"I worked at the Onyx, which was behind Hooters casino. It was a condominium structure, and that was four years. So, I had four years of actually being off the street and in an apartment. So that was rather nice," he said. "And then once the economy got bad, there was no work. Unemployment didn't last forever, so I ended up back here."
When we met Phil, he was reading an issue of "Sports Illustrated," catching up on the latest scores, to place his bets -- in hopes of winning big in one of the casinos above him.
"I bet sports, thinking that I'm going to hit it rich and get out of this situation," Phil said, "but everyone who comes to Vegas thinks the same thing I'm thinking."
Many tunnel dwellers survive by venturing out to the casinos at night to scour the slot machines for credits tourists left behind -- a practice known as credit-hustling.
"There's lots of money in the casinos. All you have to do is just keep your eyes open," Steve said. "You can find money on the ground. People leave money in the slot machines without realizing it. ...I don't mind taking money from those who live a life of decadence."
Sleeping by day and playing the slots by night, Steve and Katherine said they earn about $50 a day or more, which is enough to live -- even splurge for a movie once in a while.
"When you're living down here, it can be bleak -- very bleak. It's easy to come back here and think, just give me something. Just get high," Steve said. "That's why it's very helpful to have someone with you that you really love, through thick and thin, in tough times, because it hasn't been easy, not at all."
While they've made the tunnel their home, the couple said they'd move out tomorrow if they could.
"We don't plan a month ahead of time or whatever. Right now, we're living day to day. We get up, we have to survive. So it's hard for us to really look to the future."
It's all about survival -- trying to keep the darkness at bay, one day at a time.
"I think you'll find down here, just because it's dark, no electricity," said Katherine, "time kind of stands still."

46 year old woman | Jacksonville, NC, USA | Seeking men 38-50 within 50 miles
Life is what you make of it. Get out there & enjoy yourself & who knows what could come your way!
Where should I begin. I like being active and I love the outdoors. Walking keeps me in shape and its a great stress reliever also. I love to cook and to try new recipes but it's more fun when you're doing it with someone else. I love most foods and I'm willing to try anything. Wilmington is one of my favorite places to hang out. I love the nightlife there. I love dancing & just hanging out with friends and enjoying each others company. I love spending time at Wrightsville Beach and Emerald Isle. During the summer I'm there every other weekend. I work as a travel agent for the government but I am a hair stylist by trade. I try to eat healthy and keep myself looking fit. I am looking to make friends and maybe meet that someone special. I am not a perfect woman and I am not looking for the perfect man because I know that no one is perfect and everyone has their faults. This day in age everyone has baggage. It is up to each of us if we are willing to accept it and take things to the next level. I can't stand drama and I have no room for it in my life. I know what I do and don't want and I'm not willing to settle to just have someone in my life. I am a very caring person and I do enjoy romance . I am at an age where I don't need a man in my life but it would be nice to share with what life has to offer with that someone special. Hope to hear from you soon.

well, i recently dwnld the bonus tools from alias the other night (dunno if u r familiar with the bonus tools series but they r gr8)
so i tried to use the "draw split" tool `it simply splits a polygonal object in the shape of a drawn curve on the surface. which is very great for edge loops etc, but when i use it it simply does not work and it gives me a bunch of drawn line on my maya scree, yet the path of the drawn curve exists (along with a bunch of arbitrary curves drawn on my screen), i'm thinking it's a display problem. because i have tried this tool in windows and it works just fine on my promitive p4 1.6ghz laptop with an old mobile radeon with 32mb or ram.
all other tools work fine, except for the draw split operation.
i hope u can help me.
thanx again

Carolina Hurricanes
Carolina Hurricanes Tickets
After a not so good end to the previous campaign of 2012-13, under the coachman-ship of Kirk Muller, the red and white outfit is looking for a revival of fortunes this season in NHL 2013.
The season has begun with a sour note for the Canes though, loosing defenseman Joni Pitkanen to a major heel injury. Jim Rutherford, the manager, has provided a respite though, signing the experienced Ron Hainsey to a $2 million contract. The 32 year old had averaged 22:51 last season with the Winnepeg Jets and ended the year with 123 blocked shots, the second highest in the league and tallied 13 points from 47 games. Ryan Murphy has been roped in to replace Pitkanen's puck moving abilities.
The offense shouldn't be a problem for the Canes. Punting 16 in their last four games, albeit three of them were loses, still it proves that when it comes to scoring the Canes have more than capable players for delivering the goods. The Russian Sniper, Sergey Tolchinsky is in red hot form, scoring in all of the last four encounters. Murphy too can be a threat up front, providing assists at will. Brock McGinn and Victor Rask are cropping up well. And if Jeff Skinner decides to return to his formidable form, along with skipper Eric Staahl, there won't be many teams who can tackle this fast flowing attack. The defense on the other hand has some loopholes, as proved by letting in 25 goals in the last 4 games of 2012-13 season. An unstable goalkeeper rotation and the less than confident approach by the defensemen led to this whopping assault by the league's front men. To get their hands on the prestigious trophy, the Canes need to solidify their back line. Addition of Pitkanen and Murphy shows some positive signs and will surely encourage the fans to yell their lungs out for the red and white brigade.
With a balanced looking team with a healthy mixture of fresh and experienced players, the Carolina Hurricanes will surely be one of the contenders for the championship. The PNC needs to be filled and the fans will have a reason to cheer the loudest for their team. Only future will tell whether the Hurricane blows away the opponents or it alters its course.

Men's soccer: Eagles edge Mercer for A-Sun three-peat
The Florida Gulf Coast University men's soccer team won a hard-fought 1-0 affair Saturday night against Mercer in Macon, Ga., to claim a third straight Atlantic Sun Conference regular-season championship. The regular-season finale was the sixth straight win for the Eagles, who will serve as hosts for the A-Sun tournament quarterfinals, semifinals and finals.
FGCU's Santiago Echeverri recorded his first career game-winning goal in the 51st minute to help the Eagles claim the top seed in the A-Sun Tournament for the second straight year. The game also marked the fifth shutout in the past six games for the Eagles.
"I'm really happy for this group of guys. They've come a long way in a short period of time and to win the conference championship on the last day against a team that hasn't lost at home all season is really impressive," said head coach Bob Butehorn, who has orchestrated all six years of the program's existence. "They'll enjoy this night, but their sights are set on the next prize."
The A-Sun tournament quarterfinals are set for Nov. 7, with the semifinals Nov. 9 and the championship Nov. 11 at FGCU.

For ten years, Hugo Whittier, upper-class scion, former gigolo, failed belle-lettrist has been living a hermit's existence at Waverly, his family's crumbling mansion overlooking the Hudson. He passes the time reading Montaigne and M.F.K. Fisher, cooking himself delicious meals, smoking an endless number of cigarettes, and nursing a grudge against the world. But his older brother, Dennis, has returned, in retreat from an unhappy marriage, and so has his estranged wife, Sonia, and their (she claims) daughter, Bellatrix, shattering Hugo's cherished solitude. He's also been told by a doctor that he has the rare Buerger's disease, which means that unless he stops smoking he will die--all the more reason for Hugo to light up, because his quarrel with life is bitter and an early death is a most attractive prospect.
As Hugo smokes and cooks and sexually schemes and pokes his perverse nose into other people's marriages and business, he records these events as well as his mordant, funny, gorgeously articulated personal history and his thoughts on life and mortality in a series of notebooks. His is one of the most perversely compelling literary personalities to inhabit a novel since John Lanchester's The Debt to Pleasure, and his ancestors include the divinely cracked and eloquent narrators of the works of Nabokov. As snobbish and dislikable as Hugo is, his worldview is so enticingly conveyed that even the most resistant reader will be put under his spell. His insinuating voice gets into your head and under your skin in the most seductive way. And as he prepares what may be his final Christmas feast for family and friends, readers will have to ask, "Is this the end of Hugo?"
The Epicure's Lament is a wry and witty novel about love and death and family, a major contribution to a vein of literature that the author Kate Christensen has dubbed "loser lit." It more than fulfills the bright promise of her lavishly praised previous two novels, and gives us an antihero for our time--hard to like, impossible to resist.
From the Hardcover edition.
Hugo Whittier–failed poet and former kept man–is a wily misanthrope with a taste for whiskey, women, and his own cooking. Afflicted with a rare disease that will be fatal unless he quits smoking, Hugo retreats to his once aristocratic family's dilapidated mansion, determined to smoke himself to death without forfeiting any of his pleasures. To his chagrin, the world that he has forsaken is not quite finished with him. First, his sanctimonious older brother moves in, closely followed by his estranged wife, their alleged daughter, and his gay uncle. Infuriated at the violation of his sanctum, Hugo devises hilariously perverse ploys to send the intruders packing. Yet the unexpected consequences of his schemes keep forcing him to reconsider, however fleetingly, the more wholesome ingredients of love, and life itself.

Travis Kalanick, CEO at Uber Technologies , has raised $1.2 billion in new funding at a record valuation of $17 billion. David Paul Morris/Bloomberg
The UpTake: Ride service Uber is in record-setting territory, raising $1.2 billion in new funding at a valuation of $17 billion.
U ber Technologies is headed into uncharted territory after getting a record $17 billion valuation on a new $1.2 billion round of funding.
The San Francisco company led by Travis Kalanick said that the funding was led by Fidelity Investments, Wellington Management, Summit Partners, BlackRock and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. Existing investors, including Menlo Ventures and Google Ventures, also participated.
Kalanick may not be done yet, either. He said that he is holding the round open because there could be another $200 million in strategic investments coming.

Uber is the latest in a series of late-stage venture-backed companies to get mega-funding from growth and private equity investors rather than go public.
But its valuation is far ahead of any of the others who have yet to go public, including Dropbox and Airbnb, which are valued at around $10 billion.
A record number of $1 billion venture-backed companies, massive funding rounds and an IPO boom through the first quarter of this year have led to debate about whether a new tech bubble has formed. Read my exclusive story about that here.

Diane Kruger is one actress that doesn't follow any special diets to lose weight for movie roles. Kruger admits she often forgets to eat because of her hectic schedule.
"I do watch what I eat, but not for weight reasons," she said. "It will sound really pretentious, but when I am really busy I will forget."
Kruger feels she is a bit too skinny because she just wrapped a movie which took a toll on her body.
"I feel like I am a little skinny right now because I have just finished a movie and have been flying lots," Kruger said. "I try and avoid all processed food, too."

I did detailed case study thoroughly with a lot of symbols concerned with shopping and the experience of other online shopping brands. As a result of that I have found two main elements that need to be combined in a logo - Happy customers & shopping cart. This has become the basis for the logo and identity of the brand.
