The quick spread out of the drama "Ghost - Drama" is hypnotizing viewers.
The seventh episode of SBS drama "Ghost - Drama" showed the mystery of the serial killer of Sungyeon High School and the death of CK Electronics representative.
Kang-mi (Lee Yeon-hee) returned to her mother school, Sungyeon High. There was a bit of a story from her past when she ignored the fact that her best friend was being bullied for the reason that she was always the best at school.
Behind the serial killings, there was a possibility of another criminal who practiced the Ghost - Drama story of the school and the various parts of the human body, existing separately.
Meanwhile, while Kang-mi and Ki-yeong's performance was outstanding, Kwon Hyeok-joo (Gwak Do-won) also started unrevealing all the whereabouts of those who were at a luxury pension on the day of the CK representative's murder.
It turned out that it wasn't the NO.12 pension but the NO.15 where the body was found and the cars belonging to Kim Woo-hyeon and Sin Hyo-jeong were there and new evidence was found.

Inequality in China : an overview
This paper provides an overview of research on income inequality in China over the period of economic reform. It presents the results of two main sources of evidence on income inequality and, assisted by various decompositions, explains the reasons income inequality has increased rapidly and the Gini coefficient is now almost 0.5. This paper evaluates the degree of income inequality from the perspectives of people's subjective well-being and government concerns. It poses the following question: has income inequality peaked? It also discusses the policy implications of the analysis. The concluding comments of this paper propose a research agenda and suggest possible lessons from China's experience that may be useful for other developing countries.

This is my first attempt at a port and polish job on the sleeve and crank. This motor is a wore out 3.3 I used for practice so I wouldn't destroy a good running motor.

Best All Around Dual Sport Bike?
View Single Post
Beastly Adventurer
Joined: Aug 2002

DS by it's very nature is a compromise. You can have a serious dirt bike that is street legal (Husky TE-250), and eats dirt, but truly sucks as a street bike. Some go the other way, better for pavement. It all depends what you want.
To me, I look at something like the KTM 640 Adventure as about the perfect adventure bike...if you can deal with riding a two wheeled paint shaker. Imagine that bike with a well balanced single. Other than that, handles single track, big tank, lots of range, etc. Yeah, droning on the highway sucks on all
thumpers. Again, you have to compromise for the intended use.
Service manager Gary at San Diego BMW won the Alcan 5000 a few years ago on his 650 Dakar. Rode it there and back from San Diego too. That is obviously a pretty capable bike as well, though I don't know how much single track I would want to do on one.
Endless debate on this subject.

Killer wooed women despite violent streak
Blunt got in trouble with the law again in 1996, when he took a pair of gloves and a lock from a Home Depot store and was charged later with petty theft. He was sentenced to 25 years to life under the state's three-strikes law, but an appeals court sent the case back to the lower court, saying it could have granted probation.
Court documents say he was suffering from a "dissociative episode" when he entered the Home Depot. The records show that Blunt created another personality to deal with trauma suffered in childhood.
"He feels that 'something shuts off and someone (he called him Ricky) comes in and saves it,'" the documents say. "He then views his own actions as though someone else were performing them. It is during these times of some triggering traumatic events that Mr. Blunt (has) been at odds with the legal system."
Family members wrote letters to the court on Blunt's behalf, speaking of his ongoing need for psychological counseling.
Blunt's former longtime companion, who asked that her name not be published, said he was "nice" and "pleasant" when they first met in the 1980s. Then signs of his mental illness began to emerge.
"He had a violent streak when we were together," the mother of two of his children said in an interview Thursday.
He worked various small jobs over the years, including at a bakery, a Burger King and as a stock boy.
Blunt's name came up in connection with two homicide investigations, but police could not find physical evidence linking him to the crimes.
The first, in 1974, involved an attack on Christie Bryant, a Marine who was working the graveyard shift at a 7-Eleven in National City. The assailant stabbed her more than 30 times in a back room.
Then in 1989, while Blunt was on parole, the bodies of his girlfriend and her 2-month-old son were discovered in her National City apartment. Gertrude Richardson was found stabbed to death in the living room, and the baby was found in a bedroom, uninjured but dead from starvation and dehydration.
Blunt's name came up immediately in the investigation and he was questioned, but police again couldn't tie him physically to the crime.
DNA evidence in both unsolved cases has since been submitted to a national database, and Blunt's DNA did not come back as a conclusive match, said National City police Lt. Jose Tellez.
Retired Capt. Craig Short, who interrogated him back then, described Blunt as "slippery" and "sociopathic."
"The guy was a misogynist. He really hated women," Short said in an interview this week.
Short's take on Blunt: "He acted stupid, but I'm not sure that he was." A psychologist who treated him called him intelligent and capable.
Records show Blunt obtained his security guard license in 2004.
State officials said Blunt's murder conviction in the hatchet killing did not come up during their background check because the case was so old and fingerprint records were kept differently back then. The only blip on his record was the shoplifting arrest.

Both off to hot starts this season, the Yankees have decided to promote a pair of power-slugging infielders down in the minor leagues, sending catcher/outfielder Peter O'Brien from High-A Tampa to Double-A Trenton. Making room for him in Trenton, first baseman Kyle Roller was promoted to Triple-A Scranton.
O'Brien was showing a great bat down in the Florida State League early in the season, hitting .321 with 10 homeruns and 19 RBIs.
I didn't think that a promotion, though deserved, would come this soon for O'Brien, being a below-average catcher with the Trenton Thunder already having top prospect Gary Sanchez behind the dish for them.
Moving Roller, who was leading the Eastern League in homeruns with 9, up to Triple-A, I suppose, opens up a place for O'Brien to play, in first base. The Yankees tried him out at third base and right field last season in Tampa, but Yankees VP of Baseball Ops Mark Newman called third base a "last option" for O'Brien, so it would seems like first base and right field are the most likely options for him to reach the big leagues.
Roller, who only hit 17 last season in 124 games, already has 9 this season. The Yankees selected him in the 8th round of the 2010 draft, and has slowly been working his way through the system. If the Yankees absolutely need first base help at some point, Roller might be a guy to look from down in the minors.
(@Draft2Dynasty first reported the O'Brien news on Twitter, and Josh Norris reported the Roller promotion)

Answer: they are all furiously opposed to an FDA proposal that would add a line to the standard nutrition facts label for "Added Sugars." Big surprise, eh? Roberto Ferdman explains here why it's probably a good idea anyway.

Clarkson on Aston's V12 Vantage
Posted: 21 May 2010
You might as well wonder whether the result of a liaison between Angelina Jolie and George Clooney will be good-looking. Or whether the coming together of China and America would produce a dominant world superpower. It's a great car. And it's a great engine. Which means the result is precisely what you would expect. It's superb. The end.
[This really isn't good enough - Ed.]
Oh, OK then, if you insist. The engine was born many years ago when Ford welded two Mondeo V6s together and Aston slotted the resulting 6.0-litre V12 into the Vanquish. It was way better then than the sum of its parts, and it still is today.

Aluminum Falls on Alcoa's Demand Outlook: Commodities at Close
Oct. 10 (Bloomberg) -- The Standard & Poor's GSCI Spot Index of 24 raw materials fell 0.4 percent to settle at 664.76 at 4 p.m. New York time, led by industrial metals.
The UBS Bloomberg CMCI gauge of 26 prices dropped 0.5 percent to 1,616.36.
Aluminum tumbled the most in 11 weeks as Alcoa Inc. cut its forecast for global demand this year, and car sales unexpectedly fell in China, the world's top metal consumer.
Alcoa, the largest U.S. aluminum producer, reduced its projection by 1 percentage point. The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers said that wholesale deliveries were 1.32 million units last month, below the 1.35 million estimated by analysts in a Bloomberg survey.
On the London Metal Exchange, aluminum for delivery in three months slid 2.2 percent to $2,008 a metric ton, the biggest decline since July 20.
Copper for delivery in three months rose 0.2 percent to $8,165 a ton ($3.70 a pound) in London. Zinc, lead and nickel declined, while tin was unchanged.

Crude oil fell on expectations that U.S. supplies will rise for the first time in three weeks, and concern mounted that a sluggish global economy will curb demand for commodities.

Brent for November settlement slid 0.1 percent to $114.33 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange.

Two Forties shipments for export in October were deferred for a second time, according to two people with knowledge of the loading program.

Soybean fell, capping the longest slump in three weeks, on speculation that rain boosted prospects for crops in the U.S. and South America.
On the Chicago Board of Trade, soybean futures for November delivery dropped 1.7 percent to $15.2325 a bushel. The price dropped for the third straight day, the longest slump since Sept. 18.
Wheat futures for December delivery rose 0.6 percent to $8.6975 a bushel, the biggest gain this month, on speculation that declining world production will boost demand for U.S. exports.

Grain markets: {NI GRMKTS <GO>}

Feeder-cattle futures for November settlement were unchanged at $1.467 a pound.

On the Nymex, gas futures for November delivery rose 0.2 percent to at $3.475 per million British thermal units.
U.K. gas for next-day delivery rose to the highest since February as imports from Norway slumped to the lowest in a month and cooler weather stoked demand.
The price climbed 1 percent to 64.65 pence a therm at 3:30 p.m. London time after earlier reaching 65.5 pence. Next-month gas added 0.2 percent to 64 pence a therm. That's equivalent to $10.26 per million Btu.

Re: Graphing Results
I've been wondering a bit more lately because of the line/curve graphs that [H] has been using for a while now. That style is kinda neat in that you see the progression...but it also looks like a bunch of Silly String. :p

Original recipe yields 24 servings
Ready In
I like this marinade. I have actually used it to marinate meat for stir-fry, not just yakitori. I didn't have sake, so I used white wine instead and it still turned out good. I will definatel...
Fantastic! We used this to marinate chicken for 45 minutes and then grilled it. Had a great slightly-sweet flavor to it. Will definitely use again!
This was very yummy!

Kodak has nothing to do with the class! It will go. It will be a duplicate of the one you just took. Mark and I hope to have part II ready by Fall. We have to time out the lab work as the digestion takes 50 minutes and the sensitization takes another hour. Right now we feel that it may be a 4 day workshop.
Thanks for your comment on the class. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it.
Oh, and Kodak ain't dead yet! Give them their last gasp try.

Every salesman or businessman should have their own business card as this has been a proven effective mode of communication with their customers. Cards can also be a great strategy to impress potential clients and inform them you are a professional and you are serious in doing business with them. Sometimes a simple card can spell the difference of making a sale and losing it. If you are still unconvinced regarding the significance of having this business tool in your company, here are its few benefits:
* Marketing
– The card is a great way of promoting a company. Business owners know that the people they see or talk can be potential clients or that they can inform more customers about you and so they try to distribute these cards to as many people as they can. This is also a practical means of advertisement because they have the capability to reach a large market without costing you as much financially.
* Provide contact information
– It is essential that you show all your customers that you are accessible and a business card can do just that. By stating you company's contact information on the card, they will be able to get a hold of you on a mode convenient for them.
* State your service or products
– A card can be a great avenue to inform the market about the products you are selling. They will know who to turn to in case they need a certain item or services from your company.
* Reference
– When you regularly distribute your company card, you are allowing it to expand. A person you have given the card may not be the actual client but they can refer you to another customer who in turn can also bring in more customers for you.
So now that you are seriously thinking of availing your own business card do not rush into creating without thinking beforehand the key features which should be in a card. A card unsuitable or a badly-created card can spell disaster for your company and could only defeat its main purpose. Listed below are vital features which you should take note and work on.
1. Text
– Make it a point that the text is readable and aptly spaced. Think of the information you will be placing in the card and eliminate the unnecessary so you don't have a crammed card in the end.
2. Quality of print
– Do not compromise on the card's print quality if you are a little low on budget. A poor quality print does not last long and might imply a bad impression for your business.
3. Size
– The ideal size of a business card should be one which can fit in a person's wallet so that storing and locating it is convenient and saves time.
4. Card's back print
– Make use of the back of the card to reinforce your company's name and logo. This is a cheap mobile advertisement for you. Others prefer to utilize the back to summarize the details provided at the front part.
There's no doubt to the capability of business cards to bring in more customers and generate sales for your company. Thus, you should not settle for less. You can avail the services of professional printing companies specializing in the business cards as they have been in the business for quite some time now and they can provide a result worthy of your business.

New motherboard: AGP now fails and card seems much slower

Re: New motherboard: AGP now fails and card seems much slower
netllama and zander,
Thank you for your speedy replies!
You are the experts; however, you leave me a bit confused.
I have simply transported everything, hard drive, 6600LE, etc. (and thus all drivers and configurations), from the old motherboard .. where the 6600LE was working.. to the new one, where it does not. Please bear with me a little since you seem to be implying MAJOR surgery to fix this, from kernel 2.4 to 2.6, and possibly from gcc 3.4.6 to 4.x. I'm naturally anxious to avoid this except as a last resort.
While the 8xxx drivers are not 'supported,' the 6600LE worked pretty good with them in my old motherboard. Also, the 100 series drivers, including 100.14.11, will not install:
ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.o'. This happens most
frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or
improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs
from the one used to build the target kernel....
-> Kernel module load error: ./usr/src/nv/nvidia.o: unresolved symbol
Hint: You are trying to load a module without a GPL compatible license
and it has unresolved symbols....
As to AGP, I had presumed that nvidia agpgart rather than the kernel's had been used in the old motherboard, but zander, your comments make me doubt my assumption. I note that I can 'upgrade' to kernel 2.4.35 from 188.8.131.52. Perhaps the device ID for AGP support for this chipset has been back-ported? I will report back.
Do you have any other comments or suggestions in the interim?

Join Michelle Austin
Rabbits Reviews Rise Award Nominee
There are a lot of skinny transsexual performers in the biz and it's rare to see a real BBW TS. It's a big hole in the market that Michelle Austin has come to plug. She's a chick with a dick who's not just a little curvy, but rather deliciously thick and satisfying for anyone who is a fan of plus-sized babes with something extra dangling between their thighs.
She calls herself The Voluptuous Diva and although that may conjure up images of an old-time opera singer in a Viking helmet or a curvaceous ebony R&B artist, this creamy skinned blonde is a little bit country and a little bit rock'n'roll.
First of all, Voluptuous Diva is actually tattooed across her chest like a partial necklace, so that's pretty rockin'. She also models a short gingham dress and some daisy dukes, paying homage to her cowgirl roots out of her hometown of Houston, Texas.
You'll soon discover though that whether she's playing the role of rocker or urban country girl, she's not shy about showing off her full-figured bod or her 5.5-inch rod. You'll see a mix of solo toy play and hardcore action, including a couple of interracial blowjobs performed on big ebony dicks as well as anal sex where Michelle fucks another shemale and a scene where she rides a rock-hard cock during a cam show.
The site looks pretty good, but there aren't separate sections for videos and photos, so you don't know what you get until you click into a scene. Generally you get both, but I did come across some photo-only scenes. With that in mind, the numbers are a bit of an estimate.
There are about 100 videos and you can expect mostly high-def playback, even if the formats for each aren't always the same. Many scenes come in downloadable Windows Media files and also offer MP4s or QuickTime files for portable devices along with Silverlight versions to stream. However, some only come in one file type.
You can also check out about 125 photo sets and many of them have crisp, high-res pics. You can download the galleries in Zip files and view them online in an automatic slideshow. You'll see some creative shoots, like one showing Michelle all dolled up like a vintage pinup girl playing with a Fleshlight. I also like one where she poses with a posse of pink balloons, sits on one until it pops and cums on another.
I wish that there were clear-cut sections for pics and flicks, but you'll need to use the search engine to find the kind of content you want. You do, however, have the ability to save favorites, rate the content and leave comments. There are also keyword tags.
You don't get any bonus sites, but you do get 159 episodes of vids and photos as extras that you can check out between the weekly updates (although, as I mentioned before, not every update comes with a new video). I am happy to say that Michelle Austin offers a satisfying taste of fat T-girl action.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

Brandon Weeden and the Cleveland Browns get to experience a happy plane ride home for a change. Weeden threw for a career-high 364 yards and a touchdown and the Cleveland Browns did just enough to snap a 12-game road losing streak by beating the Oakland Raiders 20-17 on Sunday. Weeden hit fellow rookie Josh Gordon on a 44-yard score in the second quarter and Trent Richardson scored on a 3-yard run after Sheldon Brown made a key interception deep in Cleveland territory when the Raiders (3-9) were driving for the potential tying or go-ahead score in the fourth quarter. It all added up to the first road win for the Browns (4-8) since beating Indianapolis 27-19 in the second game of the 2011 season. The skid started a few weeks later with a loss in Oakland and went deep into this season. The Raiders have lost five straight for the first time since a six-game losing streak in Lane Kiffin's first year as coach in 2006, much to the dismay of the small crowd that repeatedly booed the h...

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals kicker Jay Feely 'grateful' for chance to keep kicking
In the classic case of the young rookie trying to overtake the seasoned veteran, 38-year-old Arizona Cardinals kicker Jay Feely is trying to stave off competition from 23-year-old rookie Chandler Catanzaro.
With both kickers expected to get work in the Cardinals' next preseason game on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, Feely said all he can do is continue to give his best.
"I'm grateful that I get another opportunity," he said. "I'm going to out there and keep getting better and get ready for September.
"That's always my focus. I could care less how I kick in June; I'm always focused on the beginning of the season -- that first game of the season."
Feely, 38, is entering his 13th NFL season and his fifth year with the Cardinals. He shook off competition from former Miami Dolphins kicker Dan Carpenter during last year's preseason.
But this year, the veteran appears to have a serious challenge from Catanzaro, whose kickoffs have traveled farther than Feely's have thus far in preseason play.
Both players have been perfect on their extra-point attempts (taken from 33 yards out as part of a preseason NFL experiment), but Feely's final PAT in the Cardinals' 30-28 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday ricocheted off an upright before it made its way through.
Feely, who won the kicking duel during Monday's practice, wishes he had a chance to kick a field goal on Saturday, after Catanzaro connected on all three of his attempts in the Cards' 32-0 win over the Houston Texans a week earlier.
"I was a little disappointed, but I understand," he said. "It was 4th-and-short a bunch, and in the preseason you're going to (go for it), whereas in the regular season you probably will kick a few of those.
"But I wanted a lot (of chances). I kicked the ball great in warm-ups, so I was hoping for four or five attempts."
Feely said he'll do everything he can to prove himself during the remainder of the preseason, but he said it's unrealistic to expect to hit the ball out of the end zone on every kickoff attempt.
"As you get older, you're not going to kick the ball as far. That's just reality. You look at a guy like Adam Vinatieri, who I think is the best kicker of all time -- the last 4-5 years, he hasn't had to kick off at all, which I think has been great for him.
"We've got (punter Dave Zastudil), and Dave doesn't kick off, so there's a need here to kick off. So, you have to do it well, and you have to find ways to get better every day, and that's what I'm trying to do."

My question is pretty straight forward - I have one mini mare and a gelding and I had decided to sell my mini over summer and get a second horse so that my gelding can have a constant paddock companion and I could find a home with other minis for my mare. She is kept in a dry lot during the day with evening grazing with a grazing muzzle on so she could spend some time with my gelding. However we have had a really mild winter and I have struggled to keep the dry lot completely grass-less and now my mini has laminitis
After initially being lame on one hind leg she is now sound and I have almost gotten all of the white line disease under control. I am also much stricter on her diet with no grazing at all, hay only and daily gentle exercise to try and get her weight down.
She is having x-rays done next week to determine whether there has been any rotation within her feet and I am praying that it didnt get that far. Depending on the results I would still like to look at re-homing her to somewhere with other minis, ideally that live on a track system with no grass. But I have no idea whether anyone would be interested in her, she would make a lovely show pony or brood mare, has anyone else in the mini world purchased one with a history of laminitis? I have owned her for 3 years and she has been fine up till now. I would not want any money for her provided her new home was perfect (which I would visit first to make sure).
If there was no interest in her then I would of course keep her here and manage the situation myself but I would love for her to have a mini buddy and don't have the space or time for 4 horses.
Many thanks for any thoughts on this.

Electrical Equipment - ELECTRA, tackling climate change with a strong European electrical industry.
The targets against climate change are set, but how to get there?
Europe's electrical engineering industry is the enabling sector to provide advanced technology solutions for less CO2 emissions, more energy efficiency and more use of environmental friendly energy sources.
Steady Innovation and more R&D investment are key to exploit this enormous potential.
The ELECTRA Communication
The European Commission adopted the "ELECTRA Communication" by 29th October 2009, responding to the recommendations of the 2008 ELECTRA Report (see below) issued by a team of industrial experts and connecting them with ongoing and planned EU policies. It also takes account of the European Economic Recovery Plan.
The electrical industry is a key actor in providing solutions for today's and tomorrow's pressing issues: a reliable energy supply, green transportation, energy efficient installations and buildings, a smart industrial production etc. The "ELECTRA" Communication identifies the areas to which this industry can significantly contribute while at the same time maintaining and improving its competitiveness, especially in times of recession.
Europe's electrical engineering industry stands for approximately 200.000 mostly small and medium sized companies and a high degree of innovation. The "ELECTRA" Communication focuses on areas with growth potential to which the EEI can significantly contribute:
- energy supply infrastructure
- energy efficiency of buildings and transport networks
- industrial production
- smart technologies to suit existing and future societal needs.
It lists actions to be taken by all stakeholders to ensure sustainability and competitiveness. The full implementation of these measures should encourage long-term investment in energy infrastructure and ensure high-skilled human capital, thus reinforcing the EU's technological base.
Documents :
- Communication from the Commission "Electra" for a competitive and sustainable electrical engineering industry in the European Union [298 KB]
The ELECTRA Report
The ELECTRA Report was a joint initiative by the EU's electrical and electronic engineering industry and the European Commission.
It aims at addressing the EU's policy objectives on climate change and the creation of more growth and better jobs, whilst proving that the electrical and electronic engineering industry in Europe is strong, vibrant and innovative.
ELECTRA represents one of Europe's most important manufacturing sectors. Its scope covers a broad range of electrical and electronic products, as well as equipment and systems. Electrical and electronic engineering in the EU amounted in 2006 to a turnover of nearly 320 billion Euro annually and an employment of some 2,8 million people in more than 18 000 companies.
The ELECTRA Report was prepared as follow-up to, among others, the Communication from the Commission "Implementing the Community Lisbon programme: A policy framework to strengthen EU manufacturing - towards a more integrated approach for Industrial Policy" - COM(2005) 474 final, 5.10.2005. The Communication identified the electrical and electronics engineering industry as an important sector in manufacturing which merits a policy dialogue analyzing strengths and weaknesses and anticipating how new opportunities can be exploited for the benefit of industry and society.
The Report was written by a team of experts from the electrical and electronics engineering industry, Cenelec and the European Commission under the chairmanship of Prof. Edward G. Krubasik, former President of Orgalime, and Günter Verheugen, Vice-President of the European Commission. Staff of the Enterprise and Industry Directorate-General of the European Commission participated in the work, but the Report does not necessarily reflect the opinion or position of the European Commission.
The Report is comprehensive in analysing three key areas that require the full and urgent attention of policy makers, industry, stakeholders and the general public: improving energy efficiency, creating and supporting future growth markets and designing a regulatory framework that is both efficient and effective. A strong synergy between these areas exists and ELECTRA is an effort to exploit this synergy in the best possible way.
The ELECTRA Report contains serious and detailed recommendations for each of these key areas. These recommendations are addressed to different stakeholders who will need to interpret and implement them in their specific context. There is considerable potential in mobilising investment in the key customer markets of the ELECTRA industry and move to a new era of dynamic growth.
It is now up to all of us to reflect on the findings of Electra and move to operational conclusions. The challenges may be impressive, but, indeed, we can do it!

#DiplomacyFAIL: A Japanese mayor has enraged
many of the island nation's neighbors by saying the sexual
enslavement of women from other countries was "necessary"

told reporters Monday. "At the time, it was a necessary
system to maintain military discipline." The mayor made the
comments "http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/14/world/asia/mayor-in-japan-says-comfort-women-played-a-necessary-role.html?_r=0">
while explaining how he believes American soldiers
stationed in Okinawa should make more use of the island's adult
entertainment industry, which he said would reduce the
incidence of sexual crimes against local women. During World
War II, an estimated 200,000 women were rounded up by Japanese
Imperial Soldiers and forced to live as prostitutes in "comfort

A rapper from Atlanta, GA
From wikipedia:
J-Ro had been rapping since the age of 13, and E-Swift and Tash (short for "Ca-TAS[H]-trophe) already had an established partnership for local gigs and house parties; after E-Swift and Tash moved to Los Angeles, they met LA native J-Ro and formed a group. The three friends took the name Alkaholiks on the suggestion of West Coast veteran King Tee, who for some time had been looking for a back-up band to mentor. Tha Alkaholiks first achieved recognition after appearing on Tee's Tha Triflin Album, and most importantly its successful single "I Got It Bad Y'All". Support slots on tour with KRS-One, Ice Cube and Too Short, which helped them develop their skills as well as a fanbase. Their debut album 21 & Over released in 1993 was a lean 10-track set that spawned the singles "Make Room", "Only When I'm Drunk" and "Likwit", as well as establishing them as one of the most distinctive artists on the West Coast at a time when the vast majority of Californian artists were subscribing to the G-funk gangsta rap sound popularized by Dr. Dre. 21 And Over remains highly regarded by critics.
The group's follow-up album Coast II Coast in 1995 attempted to develop their sound further while staying to their fun-loving roots, working with A Tribe Called Quest's Q-Tip and expanding their lyrical outlook with tracks such as "21 And Under" which warned of the dangers of underage and irresponsible drinking. Likwidation followed in 1997 and Tash's debut solo album Rap Life was released in 1999, both to mixed reviews. During this time they also formed the Likwit Crew, a close association of artists including Xibit, Defari, King Tee and Lootpack.
The early 21st century saw a slight increase in Tha Alkaholiks' profile due to the sudden Dr. Dre-powered rise to fame of the Likwit Crew's Xibit (whose platinum-album Restless they appeared on in 2001), and they sought to take advantage of this with 2001's X.O Experience which saw them working with hit-making producers of the time like The Neptunes and Rockwilder. They also changed their official name from Tha Alkaholiks to the shortened Tha Liks, the reason being that many mainstream radio stations refused to play tracks by a group called Tha Alkaholiks. A DVD XO - The Movie Experience was also released just after the album. Though the album sold reasonably well, it was not as much as expected.

A Pleasant Surprise
I went to meet Rebecca Glenn who had been my guest on the "Religious Talk" radio program last Sunday. I wanted to hear more about the walk she is making from Phoenix to Washington, D.C. trying to get moderate and progressive Christians to speak out about their faith in a God of love. I also wanted to meet Eric Elnes, her pastor, who is the other co-chair of CrossWalk America.
AS they projected slides of the cities and churches they visited and the people that they had met, I looked for a familiar face. A number of people walked with them in Albuquerque, N.M. -- my home town, home to my high school and college alma maters -- I recognized the street on which they were walking, but none of the faces. They spent some time in Clovis, N.M. -- near Portales, N.M. where my wife was born and an area where my wife has relatives -- but still there were no familiar faces. When they got to Hereford, Texas and projected the face of the pastor of Fellowship Church -- I found my familiar face.
Tracy Dunn Nolan, still a Mainstream Oklahoma Baptist -- even if she now resides in Texas, is pastor of Fellowship Church in Hereford. Formerly on the staff of Spring Creek Baptist Church in Oklahoma City, she's one of hundreds of Baptist Women who have been called by God to pastoral ministry but who have been overlooked by moderate Baptist Churches and excluded by Southern Baptist Churches when they call a pastor.
I'll try to find a picture of Tracy and post it over the next few days.

Dr. Prescott,
I recently read that Wade Burleson once wrote a "95 Theses Against the Formation of the CBF (in OK)."
Burleson on CBFO
I can't seem to find a copy of these "95 Theses" online. Do you by chance have a link or know where I might find a copy of this document? On a comment in his blog today, Wade claimed that he is "Hated By the CBF." I'm wondering what kind of venom he spewed towards the organizers of CBF-Oklahoma back in 1992.

I am a Southern Baptist and I find that I do not take exception to your comments. I had no idea Mainstream Baptist existed. I am headed to Oklahoma City this weekend to vist the grandkids. I hope time allows to attend services and I can talk the other Southern Baptist in hte family to take a look with me.
