Flume Debuts 2 New Unreleased Original Songs At Governor's BallPosted in Bangin, Chill, Events, Video by nick | Tags: Flume, Governors Ball, LIVE, Unreleased, Video
Last night completed the second exciting day of music of Governor's Ball Music Fesival which takes place annually in New York City. The 4 year old festival has quickly become one of the leading events in the country, blending a perfect balance of some of the coolest acts on the rise along with mainstream icons.
Australian's latest tastemaker to explode globally is Flume, who had one of the most anticipated sets of the weekend. With this being the very first date of his impressive American summer music festival tour, and an incredibly overdue followup album that is expected to be done or near completion, the hype couldn't be bigger for him to preview some unreleased music.
Well, he started his set with a roaring, packed crowd as the sun was on its way down. He played a variety of the hit songs from his first album alongside popular remixes. Then he let the crowd know that he had something new for us; he previewed a song that could only be described as his take on house music. We have a near 3 minute video of the new song that has some incredible signature melodies and infectious dance grooves. It sounded like it had some inspiration from his future classic label mate Hayden James.
He also played an epic remix of Notorious B.I.G. that I can only assume he made as a summer festival weapon.
The last track of the evening was another new one, yet this sounded far, far different then anything we have ever heard from Flume. This sounded like his version of a festival trap anthem. (And I never thought I'd say trap anthem and Flume in the same sentence.) From the outrageous tribal sounding 808s and unreal drums and screeching synths, this is totally a new side of Flume. We have an almost 2 minute video of this track as well.
Watch the videos below, and do not miss Flume as he is playing a large amount of festivals and headline shows all summer. We will keep you posted on any news regarding all of the originals he played.
Unreleased Kendrick Lamar Verse Surfaces on Flying Lotus' "Eyes Above" At Live PerformancePosted in Bangin by Bryan | Tags: FlyLo, Kendrick Lamar, Unreleased
While promoting the release of his latest album You're Dead! Flying Lotus, made it known that he was sitting on over a dozen tracks with prominent west coast rapper Kendrick Lamar. Due to music industry politics, the only FlyLo and K.Dot collab to make the album was "Never Catch Me". Now, an unreleased verse from the track "Eyes Above" (an instrumental on the album) has surfaced during a recent FlyLo live performance that features Kendrick going in hot on the beat. The verse in question was originally created during an intimate studio session between FlyLo and Kendrick. You can watch a snippet of the track below, and let's hope this collab sees the light of day in the near future.

Childish Gambino 'Sweatpants' From New Album 'Because the Internet' Leaked EarlyPosted in Bangin, Chill, News by nick | Tags: Childish Gambino, Donald Glover, Hip-Hop, LEAKED, Rap, Unreleased
Childish Gambino is getting closer and close to the much anticipated release of his latest album Because the Internet, and we get another amazing track from the project. 'Sweatpants' is a gritty hip-hop banger with a change of pace from Gambino. Spitting verse after verse and never letting up, Gambino shows a more serious side of his talents. We can expect quite a versatile project. Listen below:
It turns out this song is released as a free download when you pre-order the new album Because the Internet, yet that was not what Gambino has in mind, read his angered tweets. Someone from his label has apparently leaked the song with the pre-order to help push numbers against his wishes, classic major labels.
UPDATE: Donald is mad at the label, not blogs for sharing it now that's it leaked. Here is his tweet.
Regardless of 'Sweatpants' surfacing early, it seems Because the Internet will have quite the imaginative rollout from Donald Glover, which can only get us more excited for this release.

The song is unpredictable to say the least and captures a certain minimalistic approach that's refreshing to hear. Thoughts on where deadmau5 is going with this new sound?

Earlier this week we featured an exclusive preview of Skrillex debuting a new song that sounded more like his Techno / Electro focused Dog Blood project. In that same 'Day of the Dead' festival set, Skrillex also managed to debut some other unreleased songs ending the night with a huge new remix to a song called 'DJ Ease My Mind' from Niki & The Dove. The original features a fantastic set of vocals and piano sections which Skrillex leaves intact before adding a brutal drop with an Arabian twist.

Deadmau5 has been releasing more previews via soundcloud of unreleased and sometimes in progress songs from his new album, and now finally get to hear 3 tracks that sound like potential album songs. The first and newest track he just dropped less then 4 hours ago "petspetspetspetspetspetspetspetsPETSpets" sounds like a rebirth to his insanely melodic anthem"Strobe" filled with mesmerizing synths. Next up we have "Sparrows Made Of Lead", which is an 8 minute cinematic journey that reminding me of some more old school Deadmau5 with his song "Sometimes Things Get Complicated". Then we get "Errors In My Head" which is another great track which Deadmau5 has temporarily included the vocals from his remix to Kaskad "I Remember". Overall it seems like Deadmau5 is moving to some of his older roots, and I couldn't be any more supportive. These are easily some of my favorite tracks I have heard him make in quite some time. Listen below and we will keep you posted on news on anything to do with release. Enjoy.

UPDATED: Skrillex – Art of Raw (Unreleased) : New Song "Puppy" Used for Incredible G-Star Denim Collaboration Video AnimationPosted in Bangin, Video by nick | Tags: BANGER, Bass Music, Dubstep, G-Star, G-Star Raw Denim, Garage, Heavy, Minimal, Skrillex, The Art of Raw, Unreleased
Sonny Moore aka Skrillex has just announced one of his first big clothing X artist collaborations with well known brand G-Star Raw Denim. He launches the relation with a an incredible short animated film showing some in depth detail of the creation of the Denim. The short yet powerful video has a brand new Skrillex song set as the soundtrack currently being labelled as
" The Art of Raw"UPDATE:"Puppy". The song shows his continued progression as an artist delivering a song on the minimalistic side that is equally clean and powerful.
Sonny is well aware of the fact that artists teaming up with brands can go two completely different paths "either be cheesy and solely used as marketing tool, or they can be a great excuse to do something different and expressive. I truly believe, we made something AWESOME together." From the dope song, to what promises to be some great new denim, this collaboration gets our full approval. Enjoy.
UPDATED: The song we thought to be called "The Art of Raw" is actually entitled "Puppy", updated from Skrillex's MGMT.

Kanye West – Eyes Closed: Sick New Unreleased Hip-HopPosted in Chill by nick | Tags: Chill, Hip-Hop, kanye west, Rap, Unreleased
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was a success, and if you remember my lengthy post on Yeezy, you know that I appreciate him, and I was stoked to see an unreleased track originally slated for MBDTF. The song is called Eyes Closed and it's got a freestyle feel more then actual song, so it doesn't surprise me why it was cut, yet it would have fit nicely. It's got a cool electronic consistent beat, with Kanye just spitting over it the whole time and a chill chorus. Enjoy!

WAKEFIELD, Mass. - Junior goaltender Mike Ayers (Hingham, Mass.) of the University of New Hampshire men's hockey team was named Defensive Player of the Week by the Hockey East Association on Monday afternoon.
Ayers, the Hockey East Co-Player of the Year, wins the award for a league-high fifth time this season and brings his total to seven defensive conference honors in his career.
He registered the first shutout in Hockey East championship game history on Saturday night in the 1-0 overtime win vs. Boston University at the FleetCenter in Boston. Ayers stopped 50 of 54 shots on the weekend by Massachusetts and Boston University, good for a .926 save percentage and a 1.82 GAA.
Ayers owns a 24-7-6 record on the year with a 2.20 GAA and a .925 save percentage. His sixth shutout of the season Saturday broke UNH's single-season shutout record at UNH. Former Wildcat netmider Ty Conklin set the previous record of five in 2000-2001. Ayers is unbeaten in his last 10 games with a 7-0-3 record in that time and needs one win to tie the school record for victories in a single-season.

What Our Customers Are Saying
"We are embarking on our fourth season with our Outback. We had looked long and hard for a trailer we would be able to pull without having to purchase a truck. We pull our Outback with an Outback (Suburu style). On our first trip we motored from Calgary to Texas taking a month to get to know our trailer. It was fantastic and had many funny experiences with people in the States who wanted to look at our "trailer" as it was smaller than their storage space. All were impressed.
Over our 10 years of camping we have used at least four different service companies and have finally found the company we will stay with for the rest of our camping lives. Joe and his crew do a super job, always listening to your concerns as well as ideas for improving their product. Repair and servicing is done speedily and does not cost "the earth". We do not think you would find a better product or a better service provider than Team Trillium. We have no hesitation in recommending them."

SOC QR Code Mobile Landing Page Appreciation Wins
By Julie Larson
SOC QR Code Mobile Landing Page – Appreciation Wins (big)!
Dave and Shelley Smith know first hand that having an attitude of gratitude can be rewarding in all areas of life. As independent distributors with Send Out Cards, they are on a mission to "change lives one card at a time".
Recently, Dave and I were talking about the differences between static and dynamic QR codes. Both types of QR codes are great (if used properly) and they each serve a different purpose. Static QR codes are the kind that are directed to one url – be it a website or a video. With a static QR code, you probably won't be able to change where the code takes the user once it's been generated. Static QR codes are excellent for sending a personal message or linking to a one time event.
If you're looking at printing a QR code on your business cards or other marketing materials, you'll definitely want to consider getting a dynamic QR code. The reason you'll want to go with a dynamic QR code when it comes to your marketing materials is that the code itself remains the same. However, if you need or want to change where the code takes the user, you can easily make changes instantly through your dynamic QR code's dashboard.
Dave recently purchased a dynamic QR code for Appreciation Wins and had his mobile landing page set up within minutes. Check out what a nice job he did…
The really nice thing about Dave and Shelly's dynamic QR code is that they can swap out the video on their mobile landing page any time they want. As a matter of fact, they can change anything they want to on that page and it won't disrupt the code. So, they can safely add their QR code to any of their printed marketing materials.
When you get a moment, please scan Dave and Shelly's QR code and be sure to visit their Facebook page and give them a "Like"!
We'd love to feature your business on Divas Mobile Solutions, too. If you'd like your business to be considered, please contact us and we'll let you know how you can make that happen!

India currently has the fourth-largest number of high net worth individuals (HNWIs) in the Asia-Pacific region, after Japan, China and Australia. There were over 250,000 HNWIs in India, which cumulatively owned assets that valued over US$1 trillion in 2011. The volume of HNWIs in India increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.20% during the review period (2007–2011), while the total HNWI wealth increased in value at a CAGR of 2.47%.

A History of Occupations
Based upon my observations of Korea, here is a politically incorrect guide to Northeast Asia:
Japan = America
South Korea = Canada
North Korea = Cuba (specifically, Gitmo)
China = Mexico
At the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century, Imperial Japan occupied both the Korean peninsula and parts of China. And while the Japanese were arguably more repressive and violent, the parallel with hawkish American foreign policies and conquest is more or less a carbon copy due to the fact that the US military has also invaded and temporarily occupied its neighbors. - attacking Canada (and looting Toronto in the War of 1812) - invading Mexico (and occupying Mexico City) - assaulting Cuba (Theodore Roosevelt and the Rough Riders marauding the countryside) - permanently occupying Puerto Rico The Cuban theater took place during the infamous Spanish-American war, which was promoted by the propaganda of William Randolph Hearst ("Remember the Maine!"). Incidentally, the US military continues to occupy parts of the Japanese empire, with permanent bases in South Korea and even Japan itself (lest we forget about Vietnam).

What's Happening in Your Town
Looking for Northern Pass project information specific to your community? Select your town from this drop-down list to see:
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Northern Pass?
The Northern Pass project is a proposed transmission line that will carry low-cost renewable hydroelectric power from Québec to New Hampshire and New England. The $1.4 billion project is the largest and most significant renewable energy project proposed in New Hampshire and the region. The project will transmit the Canadian hydroelectric energy to the New England regional power grid and energy market using a new 187-mile transmission line, most of which will be built within existing PSNH electric transmission rights-of-way where power lines exist today. A new 32.25-mile right-of-way and 7.75 miles of underground along state roadways is being proposed in northern New Hampshire where there is no existing transmission right-of-way. The project is expected to be in service mid 2017.
What were the criteria for the selection of the new North Country route?
The new route was developed in response to concerns about potential visual impact in both populated and scenic areas. Northern Pass engineers designed routing options that will locate the transmission line on land either owned or leased by the project, or on which easements or other arrangements have been obtained from willing sellers, or for which the project will seek permission to use as part of its permit application with the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee. The resulting new route reduces the project's visibility, particularly in scenic areas.
Why is the Northern Pass needed?
New Hampshire and New England are faced with an increasing demand for energy, an overreliance on a single source of fuel (natural gas) to meet the energy needs of people and businesses, and a growing desire for cleaner sources of energy. Independent System Operator (ISO) New England, the operator of the regional power grid, predicts an increase of 17 percent in peak demand in the state over the next decade. ISO New England is the organization responsible for ensuring the constant availability of reasonably priced electricity in New Hampshire and New England and it has recently expressed serious concern over the consequences of having 52 percent of our energy supply coming from natural gas. In addition, policy makers, environmental organizations, and the public have recommended specific actions to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (a greenhouse/global warming gas) as part of an overall strategy to address climate change. Canadian hydroelectric power is a competitively priced, renewable source of energy, and is among the best options for addressing our energy needs in an economic and sustainable manner. The Northern Pass project is a key solution to all of these issues because it:
- Diversifies our energy portfolio and ensures stability to protect against both economic and reliability risks associated with the region's overdependence on natural gas.
- Addresses strict governmental regulations that highlight the need for additional clean sources of energy; and adds a clean new source of power in anticipation of the potential retirement of nuclear and fossil fuel power plants due to age.
- Helps New Hampshire achieve the goals set forth in New Hampshire's Climate Action Plan, which supports the construction of transmission lines, like the Northern Pass, in order to import additional clean energy from Canada.
- Diversifies our energy portfolio and ensures stability to protect against both economic and reliability risks associated with the region's overdependence on natural gas.
Will New Hampshire be guaranteed that a portion of the power from the Northern Pass will be dedicated to serving New Hampshire electric consumers for decades to come?
A power purchase agreement (PPA) that would specifically benefit New Hampshire customers remains a high priority. PSNH is proposing a PPA for a specific portion of the energy transmitted on the Northern Pass to be purchased from Hydro-Québec, in a manner similar to past purchases by PSNH, so that New Hampshire customers would receive additional, unique, long-term benefits from the project. The details of the PPA will be made public once it is finalized.
Why will the project place two sections of the line along the new North Country route underground? Can all or more of the project be placed underground?
Northern Pass plans to make these major investments in underground construction in order to address public feedback while also completing a vastly improved route in the North Country. Underground construction is extremely expensive. Adding more underground sections could make the project too expensive to build, and would deprive New Hampshire and the region of the clean energy, low-cost power, tax revenue, and jobs that the Northern Pass can deliver.
How much will customers pay for this $1.4 billion project?
Nothing. This is a "participant funded" project that will be paid for, built, owned and operated by Northern Pass Transmission LLC, a New Hampshire company that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Northeast Utilities. Northern Pass will recover all of its costs in building and operating the project from Hydro Renewable Energy Inc., a subsidiary of Hydro-Québec, under a transmission service agreement approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. In addition, unlike other new renewable energy projects, the Northern Pass will not require tax credits or a consumer-funded subsidy.
Will the Northern Pass reduce New Hampshire customers' energy costs?
Yes. New Hampshire customers will see a reduction in their energy rates, compared to what they would otherwise be, saving New Hampshire residential and business customers $20 to $35 million annually in reduced energy costs.
How will the Northern Pass benefit New Hampshire's economy?
The project will provide an estimated $28 million annually in new local, county, and state tax revenues. In addition, approximately 1,200 New Hampshire jobs will be created during construction. It is also estimated that an additional 200 new jobs will be created in New Hampshire once the project is operational, as a result of the energy cost savings the project will generate. Keeping energy costs low is key to maintaining a healthy, competitive economy.
Is this energy really "clean"?
Yes. A project like the Northern Pass was envisioned by members of the NH Climate Change Policy Task Force in 2009 when they recommended:
"…high voltage transmission lines should be built to import clean power generated from Canadian hydro and wind sources as a complementary policy to developing non-CO2-emitting generation in New Hampshire…"
The Northern Pass will reduce regional carbon dioxide emissions by up to 5 million tons a year, which is equivalent to eliminating the annual emissions of nearly 900,000 cars.
What will the permitting and approval process be moving forward?
The Northern Pass submitted its Presidential Permit application to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in 2010. After the improved route was announced in June 2013, Northern Pass submitted an amended Presidential Permit application to the DOE. A public comment period on the Northern Pass application was held shortly after. This comment period included a series of DOE scoping meetings held in September 2013, where people spoke publicly about the project. The DOE is in the process of preparing a draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), due to be released in late 2014.
Northern Pass also submitted an amended application to the U.S. Forest Service for a Special Use Permit affecting the portion of the project that will cross the White Mountain National Forest within an existing transmission corridor.
Other federal agencies participating in the development of the draft EIS include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
After the draft EIS is released, Northern Pass will file an application with the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee (SEC). The SEC reviews all applications for the siting and construction of large-scale energy facilities, including natural gas pipelines, electric generating facilities, and high-voltage transmission lines like Northern Pass. The SEC has the final say on the permitting and siting of the project and will decide whether to issue a Certificate of Site and Facility after an extensive adjudicative proceeding that includes opportunity for public comment and participation.
The Northern Pass will also file a permit application with the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee (SEC) for a Certificate of Site and Facility. The SEC certificate process incorporates all required state permits (e.g., wetland and water quality). Northern Pass expects to file this application in early 2014. To ensure a full opportunity for public involvement in the process, the SEC:
- Provides public access to all meeting notices, procedural schedules, and related public documents;
- Will conduct at least one public hearing in each county in which the Northern Pass is to be located; and
- May request that the Northern Pass convene additional community meetings to provide public information about the project.
When will the transmission line be in service?
The Northern Pass is expected to be in service in 2017.
How can people learn more about the project and the new North Country route?
Details about Northern Pass, including benefits, construction details, and maps that show where the route will be located in each town or city, are available on this website, northernpass.us. If you have specific questions about Northern Pass, you can send them to firstname.lastname@example.com or call us at 1-800-286-7305 to talk with one of our representatives.
We also post information and updates on the Northern Pass project on our Facebook page and Twitter feed, @thenorthernpass.

My coworkers and I had 3 separate orders and they wouldn't take the 3 separate orders for delivery with 3 seperate credit cards. They only allow cash if you make separate orders. I really wanted chinese food... but they weren't willing to take my money. I'd rather take my business elsewhere!
Posted by 87th lane on 11/06/2011
I order for delivery every friday to feed 15 people and the price is perfect. Even though i call before their drivers get there in the mornings they always try to deliver the food to me as soon as they can, and not a second later. The food is amazing, everything is cooked to perfection. They sometimes even include paper plates, and silverware...i dont see other delivery places do that. Great place.I recommend it to anyone in the doral area who is bored of all the venezuelan food lol !

According to Famitsu, 89 percent of its readers believe that the Xbox One, at $499, is priced "high" or a "little high" while 60 percent said that the PS4's pricing was just right. Also, 34 percent stated that the PS4's pricing was actually quite low.
SMBC Nikko Securities analyst Eiji Maeda spoke to Famitsu regarding the PS4's price announcement, and how Sony managed to steal the show. "A lot of people were paying attention to SCE, something you could really feel on the show floor as well. The PS4's price announcement at the conference was probably the most energized moment of the show.
"Talking to people on the floor, a lot of people felt that between the system's capabilities and its lack of used-game restrictions, SCE is the one company looking towards gamers the most. Microsoft generated a lot of attention at the show as well, but especially with the price difference between Xbox One and PS4, the reaction in Japan hasn't been all that big."
Currently, the PS4 will be launching in Japan by year end while the Xbox One is set to release in early 2014, with Japan being designated as a "tier 2 country". The Xbox One is expected to release all over Asia by late 2014.

Another thing that is pretty important to me is its functionality right out of the box. I don't want to turn it on and it say "Welcome! You have 1,209 updates available! Click DOWNLOAD to download now, and go take a vacation, becuase this could take WEEKS!" I mean I understand that not everythings up to date, but theres a difference between being FORCED to update to do anything, and being suggested to update.
I think the only real reason I have trouble switching is the change deal. But I don't think I do anything now that I couldn't do on a mac. So yeh, based on what I've posted, you guys need to help convince me to switch. Try to keep it as constructive as possible (I kinda don't wanna hear "liek ZOMG mac r t3h awesome!!11eleven").
Thanks for reading!! And look forward to your replies

You can get microsoft office for mac, you can get macromedia, mac is perfect for a musician, and yes wow works great on mac. I know this isn't very detailed but I've been switched for a year now almost and my mac does everything I need it to. I hardly use my PC expect maybe playing a game like Quake 4 but other then that macs are great. They are not that hard to get use to either. I'm sure some others on these forums will give you better detail then this but just wanted to put my 2 cents in.

2 days later, a friend at work gave me her Sony digital camara to play around with iPhoto with. i connected via USB and in seconds had her 76 photos loaded. Within 2 hours i created a slide show, sent this to iWeb and in about another hour created a webpage of the slide show. We viewed it the next day at work on the Windows PC's we use. She is now using one of the photos as her PC wallpaper.
Believe me, I didn't know what I was doing and was able to accomplish this in little or no time!
So far as music, you'll probably get into Garageband. I haven't really looked at that yet.
I didn't get a laptop (expensive!) , but I liked the fact of not having a bulky tower and wires. I've been using the Mac in my dinnette off the kitchen in my Condo. Several nights i have shut it down and retired to the bedroom with it (it only weighs 20lbs.) placed on the dresser top in front of the bed and we have watched movies on it. The 20" screen is unbelievable!

Second, keep in mind that as a student, you can get hundreds of dollars off Apple stuff and the associated software. I just ordered a fully loaded 20" iMac Core Duo for $2100. That's with 2gb ram, 250gb hard drive (instead of the 500 gig drive, which takes nearly a month for shipment, plus it's nicer to have a simliar-sized backup drive - $300 for the 500gb drive, $150 for a 250gb backup drive), 256mb video card, USB modem, and AppleCare. I also added on iWork ($49), Office 2004 Student & Teacher edition ($150), and .Mac ($70). This will give me an incredibly fast computer that can handle just about anything I can throw at it, plus is future-proof with the Intel chip (I'd imagine Universal applications will run faster/better on it anyhow). The iMac also has an optical digital audio output jack/headphone jack combo (are you hooking it up to a receiver or to 5.1 speakers like the z-5500s?). It also has audio line input and a microphone built in.
You can get Lightwave, a 3D app, for $195. You can pick up the new Adobe Design bundle, which includes Flash 8, Photoshop CS, Illustrator CS, InDesign CS, and Acrobat 7 for only $480 here. Don't forget, you can also get a discount on iPods (knocked the 1gb Nano from $149 to $129 for me). Journeyed.com and AcademicSuperstore.com are two great places to get nice discounts. If you hand-code your websites, be sure to check out BBEdit too. M-Audio has a great selection of external USB and Firewire audio input/output devices that you might be interested in.
The bottom line is, if you want something that just works, get a Mac. That's all there is to it.

I wish i had moved from windows to the Mac sooner. I still have my windows XP laptop but my daughter uses it more than i do now.
My Imac is the one just before the Isight model, but if anyone is going to buy a mac then my tip would be get more ram.
Hope this helps

I'm about 98% there, couple more things I forgot to mentioned before.
I am looking at the Macbook Pro. I needed the notebook and figured I would get on to also serve as a psudo desktop replacement. The Macbook has all that.
That in mind, say I do purchase it monday, and say it ships in 3 weeks, and arrives a week later. How will the application support be for it? The Intel chips are fairly new, and I'm sure not all the developers have converted yet, but will they still run? I mean big name software like Office Mac, macromedia, etc. This could be a deciding factor
Also, since I need the machine within the next.. month, how confident are you guys that the ship date posted on the store (3-4 weeks) is true and not just a placeholder? Y'all would have more inside gossip about that than I would

Why can I not convince you, well I have yet to recieve my first Mac. Though, I will share with you my only problem with switching to Mac. I've always been a gamer, and you said you were a WoW addict. Now, WoW (which I have but play on free servers) is available on the Mac. Though, first things first you're going to have to buy the Mac version of the game, I'm guessing you don't have the Mac version of the game nor do you have a Mac at this point in time from the contents of your post.
I too am a student, which I've always heard Macs are great for students but not for gamers. This happens to be true, in your case if you're only into WoW then you'll be fine. I LOVE games such as Battlefield 2, granted the previous BF games are on Mac, and the Sims 2 (which is also on Mac) and Unreal Tournament is just a MUST HAVE for me, I just play a lot of games. Which, brings problems when switching because I have to buy them all over again or in the case of BF2. It's not out yet, nore has any one said "yes we're making it for Mac". Which brings me further concerns when UT2007 comes out. It'll probably be like 2008 before I can play it on a Mac.
The rest, to my knowledge, a Mac is perfect for. I'm still in the "Testing" phases personally because I have ordered, yet not recieved, my first Mac but seriously can't wait for it to get here. An old friend once had a Mac and a PC laptop back when the iBook G4 laptops first came out. Man, past games he used the Mac for everything because it was easier and nicer than the PC. I even agreed with him, I've just always been... I'm a gamer so no Mac for me.
Due to major problems with my two PCs, one a laptop and one a desktop (from different companies), I have decided to jump over. I seriously don't have the time to baby a computer and it's rediculous how much money I spend to keep my computer running, but not protected, from viruses. They'll always find a way to get in but it's just the users job to clean them off before they do any major harm.
From all my research and questions I've asked I"m confident my Mac will run 3 years down the road just as good as it runs the day I get it. I wont have to worry about viruses/malware/spyware and I wont have to worry about defragmenting it weekly for optimum performance. After finding that the only thing I was sacrificing was my games I was still weary to switch over but my schools server is just a torture chamber for PCs. I doubt I'll ever be a 100% Mac user, well by choice (money), but my next PC is going to be for gaming and stay on my home network where I'm not hooked up to a wireless or groundline that is hardly protected from the outside and NOT protected from the inside.
Just my 2 cents on Mac computers. Also, I am a musician myself and can't wait to mess around with Garageband as on PC without paying you're stuck with Windows Recorder for a sound recorder.
// Edit to the post above
Mac OS X Tiger is said to have Rosetta built in to it which will convert, as it's said, the program to be able to work. It wont emulate it, but actually change it. You can find out all this on Apple's web site, I read like every single page they have over the MacBook Pro and OS X Tiger seeing that's what I ordered. Past that, it seems a lot of the higher end programs already have the Universal symbol on them and I believe they did list a few exceptions (wouldn't work) on the Apple web site under the Rosetta section.
On the shipping dates, no one can be for sure. I ordered mine Sunday Morning and mine is scheduled to ship the 28th of February and be at my house on the 7th of March. That's all I can really say...

WORK. From what we can tell it'll be quite a step up from the G4 line. As far as word processing/spreadsheets, I believe iWorks does that. But for ease and assured compatibility, just get Office for Mac. Works virtually the same, maybe better.
As far as web design... using Dreamweaver (and assuming Flash, since Adobe now owns them)? The Rosetta emulator should work flawlessly but Adobe has since said that they will not release a native (Universal) version until 2007. The lag in performance is seen in the iMacs in Photoshop or other intensive programs. DW should be fine. That's is simply an option to be weighed when people start getting the MacBooks
Recording should be great with Garageband and cutting audio clips is a snap, even in Quicktime. As for 5.1 sound, there is digital output in the Macbook, so straight digital to your receiver/surround system.
As far as crashing OSX has been the most stable OS I've encountered. Apps may crash from time to time, but I've run my system nonstop for weeks - on restarting to update something. Updates come around every quarter, and take several minutes to a half hour, depending on your internet. If you buy the MacBook, here's the scenario:
Open box.
Read manual. (or not, if you're male.
Plug it in and press the power button.
It asks: English? Location? Name? Wanna .Mac account? Register online? Ok - Go!
You're done! Start right off learning where everything is and set your browser to Mac-Forums.com for everything you need to know. I bid you good day.

Oh, and I've had my Mac for nearly 6 months. You want to know something? I turned it off once. Because I had an issue with my RAM and had to take it to the Apple Store to get it fixed.

It just works. Networked into my 4 machine system and the router with almost no questions asked and it just works.
I had to use it today to transfer some stuff from an old G3 running OS8.6. I'd never laid eyes on a Mac that old and it just did that as well.
I've still got 2 XP boxes but I'm using the Mac more and more - even at 12"

Lakewood, N.J., Oct. 26, 2010—From its role in education, employment, and socioeconomics to whether we can realistically expect to live in a color-blind society, the very mention of race is enough to get people talking.
But such discussions, however difficult, can be meaningful, according to the organizers of Georgian Court University's 2010 Critical Concerns Week: Race Awareness. From Monday, November 1 through Friday, November 5, GCU faculty, students and guest speakers will examine racism and society's need to embrace multicultural perspectives.
The event reflects the slate of critical concerns addressed by the Sisters of Mercy, GCU's sponsoring organization. Each year since 2006, the McAuley Community Center at GCU has dedicated a week of scholarly study to special concerns, including women's issues, the environment, immigration and identity, and nonviolence.
The general public is invited to attend 2010 Critical Concerns Week: Race Awareness, which kicks off Monday with a 5:30 p.m. student-led peace march on campus, followed by the 6:30 p.m. appearance of headline speaker and national media contributor Marc Lamont Hill, Ph.D.
Overall, the week of programming aims to "deepen our response to the unrecognized and unreconciled racism, past and present, within our community." Throughout the week, participants will offer a provocative and critical assessment of race and its role in society, and the university will host a five-day showing of "Sylvia's Children," the poignant traveling exhibit that relays the stories of poor and orphaned children living in Uganda.
GCU will also convene a Tuesday afternoon student-only gathering entitled, "Saying the Hard Things: A Safe Space to Explore Personal Experiences of Racism." Members of the press may contact the GCU Office of Public Information for additional information about this supportive, non-judgmental sharing session led by Robin Solbach, Ph.D., director of GCU Counseling Services, and Cynthia Ninivaggi, Ph.D., an associate professor of anthropology. During the session, Drs. Solbach and Ninivaggi will listen as members of majority and minority cultures share their own stories in an effort to enhance understanding of how racism affects us all.
The following events are free and open to the public:
Monday, November 1
Education Matters: Creating Educational Equality for All StudentsActivist, social critic, and scholar, Marc Lamont Hill, Ph.D., spoke to a full house at GCU last fall and returns during Critical Concerns Week to address the myriad issues affecting student success in America's schools. Dr. Hill, an associate professor at Columbia University's Teachers College, is considered a public intellectual who moves with ease between Faculty Row and Fraternity Row, "the street" and Main Street. Often sought for his views on diversity, hip-hop culture, and the younger generation, Dr. Hill has contributed to CNN, NPR, FOX News, The Washington Post, Essence, and The New York Times.

FRIDAY, Aug. 15, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Brisk walking and other forms of exercise reduce a black woman's risk of breast cancer, U.S. researchers report.
They followed more than 44,000 black women for 16 years. They found those who exercised vigorously for seven or more hours a week were 25 percent less likely to develop breast cancer than those who worked out less than an hour a week.
The exercises included swimming, running, basketball and aerobics in addition to brisk walking. However, walking at a normal pace was not associated with a lower breast cancer risk.
"Although expert review panels have accepted a link between physical exercise and breast cancer incidence, most study participants have been white women. This is the first large-scale study to support that vigorous exercise may decrease incidence of breast cancer in African-American women," principal investigator Lynn Rosenberg, a professor of epidemiology at Boston University School of Public Health, said in a university news release.
The study was published online recently in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.

AVONDALE, Ariz. (November 9, 2008) – Saturday's NASCAR Nationwide Series race from Phoenix International Raceway was one that Jamie McMurray and the No. 17 CitiFinancial team had circled on the schedule for some time. McMurray won the NNS race at Phoenix in 2004 and looked poised to challenge for the win during the spring race until he was caught up in a wreck. This weekend started of well with the No. 17 CitiFinancial Ford Fusion posting strong times in practice and qualifying sixth. McMurray fought loose conditions during the race, however, and had to settle for a seventh-place finish.
Early on during the Hefty Odor Block 200, McMurray told crew chief Pierre Kuettel that he was "real loose." When the first caution flew on lap 23, McMurray came down pit road for four tires and an air pressure adjustment. The No. 17 CitiFinancial team picked up two spots during the stop and sent McMurray back on the track in fourth place. McMurray was up to third on lap 38 and told Kuettel that the car was "quite a bit better."
The No. 17 CitiFinancial Ford Fusion fell back to seventh during the next run with McMurray reporting that the car was "not turning well enough." The next chance to adjust on the car came under caution on lap 64. The CitiFinancial team gave McMurray four tires, wedge and air pressure adjustments and picked up another three spots on the transfer. McMurray restarted fourth and quickly told the team he was "way, way, way too loose."
McMurray came in for two more pit stops, receiving tires and air pressure adjustments each time. The changes weren't enough, however, and when the race ended the No. 17 CitiFinancial Ford Fusion was seventh, the sixth top-10 finish for McMurray in 10 Nationwide Series starts this season.
"We had a pretty good car in practice and qualified average," said McMurray. "Then it was just too loose the entire race. These races you have to get your adjustments done early. I was scared to have them adjust it too much. We just never caught up to it."
McMurray and the No. 17 CitiFinancial team return to the track next Saturday for the season finale from Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Chris Mack is excited about the six-member recruiting class.
May 13, 2014
CINCINNATI --- Xavier University head coach Chris Mack announced today that he has received a signed athletic scholarship agreement from 6-2 guard Larry Austin Jr. from Springfield Lanphier High School in Springfield, Illinois.
"Larry is a very tough minded, charismatic leader at the point guard position," said Mack. "He plays the game to make his teammates better and excels in the open court. He is a competitor on both ends of the floor and we're excited about what he brings to Xavier Basketball. Larry is known for his toughness and will be a great fit for our program."
The Lanphier High School senior, a 2014 Class 3A First Team All-State selection, averaged 22.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 4.2 steals last season, while leading his team to a 27-2 record. Austin was a 2013 Class 3A Second Team All-State selection as a junior.
Austin is ranked as a three-star prospect by ESPN.com and rivals.com. Austin is regarded by 247sports.com as the No. 108 overall prospect and by the rivals site as the No. 117 prospect in the 2014 national rankings. ESPN lists Austin as the No. 24 point guard.
Austin is also a strong student with a 3.75 GPA.
Austin completes an impressive six-member recruiting class that is ranked in the top 10-20 nationally by most of the major recruiting services, including No. 13 by Scout.com. It is the highest ranked recruiting class in Xavier history.
The star-studded six-member recruiting class also includes 6-6 small forward Trevon Bluiett from Indianapolis (Ind.) Park Tudor School, 6-9 power forward Makinde London from Montverde (Fla.) Academy, 6-5 guard J.P. Macura from Lakeville (Minn.) North High School, 6-9 center Sean O'Mara from Lisle (Ill.) Benet Academy and 6-4 guard Edmond Sumner from Detroit Country Day School.

The wrestling season has turned into the home stretch and only one local squad has a chance at a team state championship.
While Goose Creek and Stratford were ousted in the opening round of the Class AAAA duals on Saturday, Hanahan defeated a pair of teams on Saturday then knocked off Swansea 54-28 in the Class AAA quarterfinals on Monday night at HHS.
"I'm very satisfied with their effort tonight," said HHS coach Ray Adkins, whose team won the last two Class AA championships before being bumped up to AAA. "Our kids wrestled one of their best matches of the year. We're going to have to do the same thing on Wednesday (against Socastee)."
The Lower State finals were set for Wednesday at HHS after press time. Socastee advanced with a win over Berkeley on Monday.
The winner of that match will meet either Belton-Honea Path or Eastside in the Class AAA final Saturday in Columbia.
HHS advanced to Monday by coasting past Brookland-Cayce and Myrtle Beach last Saturday.
In Class AAAA, Fort Dorchester knocked off Stratford in the opening round while Beaufort knocked Goose Creek out of the duals in the first round.
Hanahan trailed Swansea to 10-6 after three matches on Monday but Hanahan got seven pins and a forfeit over the next nine matches to pull away.
Jacob Garibay (220), Tyler Talacko (113), Elijah Wortham (120), Haven Horlback (138), Brian Joseph (145), Forrest Bowman (152), Cole Zakis (160) and Dennis Flores won by pins for the Hawks.
• The four teams left in Class AAAA are Hillcrest and Rock Hill in the Upper State and Summerville and Lexington in the Lower State.
The final for the Class A-AA division has been set already. Liberty will meet Bamberg-Ehrhardt.
Saturday's championship match times are set for 11 a.m. (A-AA), 1 p.m. (AAA) and 3:30 p.m. (AAAA). The finals will be held at Dreher High School.

Wilderness Safaris Marketing Manager
Wilderness Safaris is a conservation organisation and ecotourism company dedicated to responsible tourism throughout the areas in which it operates in southern Africa. Its goal is to share these wild areas with guests from all over the world, while at the same time helping to ensure the future protection of Africa's spectacular wildlife heritage and sharing the benefits of tourism with local communities.
The 27-year-old company operates camps and safaris in Botswana, Namibia, Malawi, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and the Seychelles and is run by a group of likeminded wildlife enthusiasts who came together to build a successful safari business, delivering a unique experience for guests, fair returns for shareholders and stakeholders, while ensuring that southern Africa's pristine wilderness areas remain sustainably protected.
Its wildlife, marine and heritage safaris in remote and pristine wilderness destinations are specialised, educational, explorative and fun. Camps and services are safe, hygienic, authentic and insightful of guests' needs. Its "conservation through tourism" policy shares the benefits of tourism with local communities and ensures the protection of these areas for future generations.
Wilderness Safaris is privileged to operate privately on 3 million hectares (7 million acres) of southern Africa's finest wildlife reserves in more than 60 lodges and camps. There is no one style set in Wilderness camps; rather we celebrate the difference and uniqueness of each area and its wildlife so that each group of camps has its own identity, feel and character. This variety of accommodation, activities and product means that there's something for everyone wanting to come to Africa.
