The researchers tested the newly developed iCMBAs on rats, using the adhesive and finger clamping to close three wounds for two minutes. Three other wounds were closed using sutures. The researchers reported their findings in a recent issue of Biomaterials.
The iCMBAs provided 2.5 to 8.0 times stronger adhesion in wet tissue conditions compared to fibrin glue. They also stopped bleeding instantly, facilitated wound healing, closed wounds without the use of sutures and offered controllable degradation.
"If you want the material to stay there for one week, we can control the polymer to degrade in one week," said Yang. "If you want the material to stay in the wound for more than a month, we can control the synthesis to make the materials degrade in one month."
The iCMBAs are also non-toxic, and because they are fully synthetic, they are unlikely to cause allergic reactions. Side effects were limited to mild inflammation.
"If you put any synthetic materials into your body," said Yang, "the body will generate some inflammation."
The researchers are now working on improving the formula.
"We are still optimizing our formulation," said Yang. "We are still trying to make the adhesion strength even stronger" to expand its use for things like broken bones where strong adhesion is tremendously important.
The researchers are also looking at adding in components that could control infection.
"We can introduce another component with anti-microbial properties, so it can do two functions at once," said Yang.
The iCMBAs could eventually be used in a wide range of surgical disciplines from suture and staple replacement to tissue grafts to treat hernias, ulcers and burns.

Bradley Cooper was named People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive today. And deservedly so, as he's a tremendously sexy man. It's a shame that People has such a stranglehold on declaring who is the sexiest of all living men. Thus we are forced to find other titles to bestow upon celebrities who couple their talents with looks. We could go the "sexiest woman" route, but that's a little Maxim-y for our tastes.
Rather than tread well-worn territory or lower ourselves to the standards of some puerile magazine, we thought we'd address the elephant in the room: the sexiest men not alive. As best we can tell, this hasn't been done before, and if it has, we're gonna do it better.
These guys are so hot it makes me want to take Bradley Cooper and kill him just so he can join this list.
This corpse has a quiet confidence that really resonates with people. That, coupled with his sharp, island casual attire makes him a shoo-in for this shortlist. Granted, mustaches were not at the height of fashion when Weekend at Bernie's came out, but he owned that look in a way that no one had since Tom Selleck. I wonder what Bernie's up to now?
Probably still dead and rotting is my guess.
I don't know if vampires are technically "undead," and I don't want to get into a whole big thing about it with the nerd police, so let's just say that vampires are "not alive," shall we? Yeah, we shall.
For someone who's hundreds of years old, True Blood's Eric Northman looks uh-mazing. To put it in perspective, Michael Douglas is 67 and alive. Have you seen Michael Douglas with his shirt off recently? He looks like shit. Northman is like ten times as old and he looks great. Always taking time to comb his hair and do jackknife sit-ups has really paid off for this vampire.
Consider posting a comment.

Azon Media launches QR Code Management and Tracking platform AzonMobile.com
Azon Media is delighted to announce the launch of its new QR Code Management and Tracking platform, AzonMobile.com.
QR Codes also known as "Quick Response" Codes were first invented in Japan in 2004 by Denso Wave, and were initially used for tracking automotive parts. Since the widespread use of QR Codes as a marketing tool they have now penetrated mainstream business and markets worldwide with such countries as USA, Germany and France leading the growth.
AzonMobile is the only platform of its kind which allows users to track direct URLs as part of their campaign. Most systems currently available on the market only allow clients to track shortened URLs which can sometimes create a misleading user experience. With AzonMobile's robust platform, not only can you track direct URLs but as part of our self hosting solution, in the unlikely event of our platform has an outage issue, your campaign will still continue to work. When issues are resolved the self hosting continues to push information back to our secure server and no information will be lost in the process.
QR Codes can be tracked on a real-time basis using the platform. Designed to help users create standard or customized QR Codes that are compact and therefore scan more reliably. AzonMobile has been created to make it effortless for marketers and businesses of all sizes to generate, manage and track QR Codes therefore taking complete advantage of this new marketing tool.
Azonmobile also offers a wide variety of functions which include the creation of custom QR codes. Not only can you choose the shape and size of the QR Code, you can also choose the format you would like the QR Code to be saved and/or exported in. This is very convenient when you need to produce a very high quality print which would be suitable for billboards or detailed printing needs. Add colour and background or foreground images to your QR Codes to bring them to life for adding another dimension to your campaign.
Utilising our simple to use interface, AzonMobile allows businesses and marketers to create QR Code campaigns and change them dinamically without damaging the campaign. Compare campaigns using our campaign comparison tool and view graphs for each campaign even down to street level using the Gelocation functionality.
Import QR Codes and regenerate the QR Codes in higher quality using our built in QR Code Reader. Build your own interface using our robust API.
AzonMobile is an answer to today's needs for an all round QR Code Solution which gives the flexibility and reporting needs that marketers and businesses crave.
Co Founders, Patsy O'Connor and Vesselin Kenashkov commented on the launch.
We are very excited about the launch of Azonmobile, our comprehensive QR Code Management and Tracking Platform. The system gives businesses the option to create, manage and track multiple QR Code campaigns and compare the results. We feel brands will find great value in our self hosted tracking solution which allows the tracking of direct URLs. At the moment we have a seen a huge rise in the demand for QR Codes and some very exciting brands are now turning to the more dramatic 2D codes that are currently sweeping across the USA and Europe. The coming months are going to be very exciting for QR Codes and mobile marketing.

This paper evaluates, through the use of a stepwise multiple regression procedure, whether parameters descriptive of the surf-zone wave field adequately explain the variability in longshore current velocities, or if the inclusion of additional physical environmental parameters could significantly improve the ability to predict such currents. The data set consists of 250 LEO - observations, collected on a seasonal basis over one year, at Debidue Island beach, South Carolina. A regression analysis was performed both on linear combinations of all measured wave parameters, and on nonlinear parameter combinations proposed in various semiempirical predictive equations. Invariably, in all the regression analyses, the longshore component of the wind velocity proved to be the independent variable explaining most of the observed variance in the current velocity. Therefore, the statistical data analysis presented in this paper strongly suggests that wind stress can be a most significant factor in surf-zone current generation.

What It Is
Willy's Wiggly Web is a new cooperative board game for preschoolers. A cooperative game means that all players play together against a common obstacle. In Willy's Wiggly Web, the little bugs are caught in Willy's spider web. Players must help free the bugs by cutting them out of the web and letting them fall to the ground. But if Willy falls before players free all 10 bugs, the game is over and everyone loses. If players free all 10 bugs and keep Willy on top of his web, everyone wins.
There are three game levels. While all levels have the same object, each adds developmentally appropriate challenges to the game. Level 1 is for ages 3–4. In this level, kids take turns using the scissors to make three cuts on the web. Keep passing the scissors and cutting, trying to free all 10 bugs.
In Level 2, players take turns drawing Level 2 cards and following the instructions on the card. There are two instructions to follow: make a specified number of cuts and pass the scissors to either the left or the right. This level is for ages 4–5.
Level 3 is for ages 5–6. This level uses scissors, Level 2 cards, and Level 3 cards. Players take turns drawing cards and following the instructions on the card. If they draw a Level 2 card, they make the specified number of cuts and pass the scissors left or right. If they draw a Level 3 card, all players must either move one seat to the left or one seat to the right.
The game comes with one pair of kid-sized scissors, 10 bugs, 1 Willy spider (two pieces), 26 Level 2 cards, four Level 3 cards, a web base, six web posts, and 50 paper webs. The game is for two to five players.
Is It Fun?
The gameplay in Willy's Wiggly Web is simple and easy for preschoolers to learn. With three different playing levels, this is a game that grows with children. You can tailor the game to the age of the child and the amount of challenge you want. Through the play, kids practice scissor skills and hand-eye coordination as well as counting and the concept of left and right.
Who It's For
Willy's Wiggly Web is for ages 3–6. This is a game for younger players especially. Older players tend to be more attracted to games where there is a clear winner and some level of competition to define the play.
What To Be Aware Of
Adult assembly is required.
To help players know when they should stop cutting, have all players count together as the player cuts. This reinforces counting, clues the player when to stop, and helps all players stay focused on the game when it's not their turn.
While most cooperative games feel artificial, this one gives kids a common focus and a goal to work on as a team. It also can inspire a lot of social interaction and co-play, which makes this superior to many other cooperative games we've reviewed.

An actor who for two decades played a scheming patriarch on the daytime drama "General Hospital" has died in Los Angeles. ABC says John Ingle was 84.
Ingle took over the role as the ruthless Edward Quartermaine in 1993 and made his final appearance in an episode airing last week. He died Sunday.
In a career spanning more than 30 years he had acting credits in TV shows including "Days of Our Lives," ''Big Love" and "The Drew Carey Show" and in films such as "Batman and Robin" and "Heathers."
The native of Tulsa, Okla., was a graduate of Occidental College. He taught at Hollywood High School, UCLA and Beverly Hills High School.
His wife of 57 years, Grace-Lynne Martin, died in February. He is survived by their five daughters.

Part 1 - Introduction
Chapter 1 – The Principles of Economics
Scarcity = the limited nature of society's resources
Economics = the study of how society manages its scarce resources

Making decisions requires trading off one goal against another. (Es geht um Kompromisse; man opfert eine Alternative um der anderen Willen)
A classic tradeoff is between "guns and butter" (military vs. living standard) • Leisure time vs. work
• Food vs. clothing
• Efficienty vs. equity

One more week of nonconference football games for some
This is the final week of nonconference games for the Midwestern League and Southwest Conference before league play begins on Oct. 3.
The two likely league favorites – Sheldon and Thurston – both have a bye this week but the rest of the locals in those leagues are playing. By the way, Thurston QB Tym Pearson who ranks among the nation's top passers on Maxpreps.com is out of town taking a recruiting visit to Washington State, where he will watch the Cougars play the Ducks.
South Eugene faces a defending Midwestern League champion for the second week in a row when it travels to Willamette, which shared the MWL title with Thurston last year. The Colts beat South 49-35 last week and now the Axemen get the Wolverines. I heard rumors this week that South QB Dustin Haines was out with an injury, but South coach Travis Johnson told me his quarterback was dinged up but fine to play against the Wolverines.
Springfield hosts Ashland with a chance to equal its second-best start in history at 5-0. You may have read last week that the Millers are 4-0 for the first time in history, but after we got a call saying that the 1956 Springfield team started 5-0 I e-mailed Midwestern League history guru Gary Haliski, who runs an MWL website, and he looked into the Millers' history for me.
It turns out Springfield started the season 5-0 in 1956 and that was only its second-best start. In 1929, the Millers finished the season 7-0. Thanks to Gary for the research and check out his website if you are a MWL football fan.
Churchill is also home this week against Eagle Point and Marshfield hosts Jefferson. North Eugene is at Madison.
In the Sky-Em League, Cottage Grove hosts Marist, which is likely to be without injured quarterback Tevin Cheever for the third week in a row although coach Frank Geske told me this week he hopes Cheever can return soon. Elsewhere in the Sky-Em, Junction City is at Sisters and Elmira is at La Pine.
We'll have reporters at Cottage Grove/Marist and South Eugene/Willamette.

He has been a sportswriter at the paper since 1999 and covered high school sports while also reporting on Oregon football in the Rose Bowl and Fiesta Bowl as well as men's basketball during their Elite 8 run in 2007 and trip to the Sweet 16 in 2013.

A Pittsburgh artist and mother is using Twitter and a modified ice cream truck to provide mothers with a mobile safe place for women to breastfeed their children.
The Huffington Post reports Jill Miller created The Milk Truck, a pink, red and blue ice cream truck with a breast on top so mothers could avoid the public's disapproval, despite it being legal in most states.
According to the article, a nursing mother can tweet her location to @PghMilkTruck and the truck will arrive at the location to provide the mother shelter for feeding her baby.

Enbridge readies test of ruptured oil pipeline
MARSHALL, Mich. (AP) - Enbridge Inc. says it's preparing to test a pipeline that ruptured last month and poured up to 1 million gallons of oil into the Kalamazoo River and other southern Michigan waterways.
Executive Vice President Steve Wuori said Thursday the federal government hasn't said when oil can resume flowing through the pipeline, which runs between Griffith, Ind., and Sarnia, Ontario.
He says the Canadian company first must conduct high-pressure tests in six sections that inspections have shown might be similar to the segment that failed July 26. Water will be pumped into a section of the line about a dozen miles long.
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regional director Susan Hedman says all of Enbridge's cleanup plans have been approved.

The fallout continues following yesterday's exposure of lobbyists boasting about the 'dark arts' they employ on behalf of clients, including the manipulation of Google results for relevant search terms. One of the claims which seems to have fuelled much indignation from commentators is that the agency sets up networks of fake blogs to publish positive content about clients, in order to ensure that people searching for the client's name on Google will be presented with mostly positive results.
This practice is often referred to as astroturfing (fake grassroots campaign, geddit?) and needs to be carried out on a vast scale and sustained over a long period of time to be at all successful. Because of this, it's not an especially cost effective tactic for most businesses.
But efficacy aside, the main point I wanted to make is that astroturfing is flat out illegal in the EU and the US, if it's done to promote a brand or product.* The EU Directive on Unfair Commercial Practices (2005) outlaws a number of activities around the idea of brands misrepresenting themselves online, which includes posting fake consumer reviews and astroturfing. A similar law exists in the US, and in a high profile 2009 case a plastic surgery firm was fined $300,000 for breaking it.
What's surprised me is that for all the angry shouting about this issue over the past couple of days, few people seem to be aware that it is already illegal for brands to use these kinds of tactics. I imagine this is a result of the social media land-grab that's taken place over recent years, which has seen a lot of PR professionals repositioning themselves as social media experts, perhaps without fully understanding the new digital landscape in which they must operate.
The bottom line is that if your business employs these tactics, then it is exposed to legal risk and you should re-evaluate your digital comms strategy immediately.
*Doing it for political purposes is a different game entirely, and one which I'm not qualified to comment on from a legal perspective, but it's definitely deeply unethical whichever way you look at it.

Al Sharpton and Other Black Celebrities Defend Paula Deen
Civil rights activist Al Sharpton, actress Stacey Dash, and NFL player Kris Jenkins are just some of the black celebrities that have come forward in support of TV chef Paula Deen.
Deen, who is 66-years old, was recently dropped by the Food Network after she admitted that she used the n-word and other racial slurs while cracking racist jokes about black people in a videotaped deposition. She has also been dropped by several sponsors including Wal-Mart, Target, Smithfield, and Home Depot. She also lost her lucrative book deal with Random House.
"A lot of us have in the past said things we have regretted saying years ago," Sharpton recently said in an interview with TMZ. "You cannot deal with what is fair or not fair until we see an outcome of the present circumstances she is accused of, not something that happened 20 years ago."
And Stacey Dash, commented via Twitter: "God does everything for a reason. @Paula_Deen Only God can judge your heart BTW my daughter loves your show (only way she can get me to cook)"
And Kris Jenkins, during an interview with Metro New York, commented, "The lady was a sweetheart to me; [her] making a mistake I'm not going to be the one to make a big deal of it."

Review: Taking on 'Parenthood' and Liking the Results
In its first two seasons, I occasionally dipped into NBC's 'Parenthood,' but I admit I fell far behind in the Braverman chronicles, which I'd kept hearing good things about (the further I fell behind, the more good things I'd hear and read).
Given the crush of new and returning programs this month, I won't have a ton of time in coming weeks to write about 'Parenthood,' which returned Tuesday night. But I very much wanted to say that I'm extremely glad I caught up with this excellent show (over the past few days, I watched as much as I could of season 2), and I'm fully on board now.
I really recommend getting on board as well, if you can. Not only is 'Parenthood' a solidly rewarding drama, I'm half amazed (and fully glad) that the show exists at all.
As I wrote about here, it seems like television is reacting to these uncertain times by heading in a couple of predictable directions: Toward high-concept fare that has recognizable or marketable hooks (vampires! haunted houses! zombies! fairy tales! dinosaurs!), or toward the usual doctor-lawyer-cop fare, possibly with a twist (how long until we see a vampire prosecutor?).
Who knows, maybe that's what TV needs to do to survive in the multi-platform age. But whether or not that's the case, the industry appears to be pretty uninterested in supporting dramas that don't have some kind of hook-y premise. Shows that are just about life -- regular, zombie-free life in unhaunted houses -- well, good luck if you're pitching that kind of thing these days.
'Parenthood' doesn't have a hook, really, and it sets itself a major challenge each week: The show's writers craft hours of television that have beginnings, middles and ends -- yet the show's story lines revolve around situations that don't really end.
Sarah Braverman (Lauren Graham) is trying to accept her daughter's attempts at independence and create a new life of her own. Adam and Kristina Braverman (Peter Krause and Monica Potter) are trying to deal with their son's Asperger's diagnosis and, after Adam lost his job, just trying to keep the family afloat on a day-to-day basis. Crosby Braverman (Dax Shepard) is trying to grow up for real in the wake of the infidelity that ended his relationship with his son's mother.
These situations -- which are among the show's strongest story lines -- play out over long periods of time, yet executive producer and head writer Jason Katims and his writers are able to construct storylines that work on both an episodic and season-long level. The fact that Katims, who was also the mastermind behind 'Friday Night Lights,' has been able to do this with two broadcast network dramas that don't revolve around lawyers or aliens is a marvel that should be studied by scientists.
You may have been waiting for the "and yet...," so here it is. I'm one of the critics who's been using the phrase "laundry folder" to describe shows that don't occupy your full attention yet have a few modest charms and give you the occasional reason to pay closer attention.
There are story lines on 'Parenthood' that function as laundry folders: Any story line that revolves around Joel (Sam Jaeger) and Julia (Erika Christiansen) is almost skippable (I have nothing against either actor, but when they show up on screen, that's my cue to check email). When the show does spend time on them, it's usually just long enough to give us the outlines of a broadly sketched situation that doesn't feel nearly as nuanced or compelling as anything else on the show. And though they're great when given good material, as the Braverman patriarchs, Bonnie Bedelia and Craig T. Nelson rarely get anything meaty to play, given how much time 'Parenthood' spends on other family dynamics.
But I've loved how much dimension and quiet dignity Monica Potter has given Kristina (and I say that as someone who was worried in the show's first season that her usual brittleness might ruin the whole show for me). I've admired how unlikable and stubborn 'Parenthood' has been willing to make Adam, who is a good dad but can be as headstrong and aggressive as his occasionally irascible dad.
I've been extremely impressed with Dax Shepard's performance as Crosby, the ne'er-do-well who finally realizes that youthful irresponsibility is a crutch he's leaned on for too long. Max Burkholder has given a fully realized, Emmy-worthy performance as Max Braverman (the show is on its surest emotional ground when depicting his story lines, which is admirable, given how maudlin or cliched that story could be). And by this point, I've begun to think that Lauren Graham has some kind of mind control ability, given how easily she can cause me to become choked up during one of Sarah's impassioned speeches.
Like a real family, 'Parenthood' sometimes sprawls and can be messy or a little irritating around the edges. Some story lines can be a little repetitive (for instance, I'd love to see more of Mae Whitman's range put to use in the Amber stories). But in the main, this show is very much worth watching. And it's still possible to catch up. To do so, I watched season 2's 'Seven Names,' and then from 'Amazing Andy and His Wonderful World of Bugs' (which has a great guest performance from Michael Emerson) straight through to the end of the season (though I think it'd be possible to skip 'Taking the Leap' and 'New Plan').
I don't claim to be a 'Parenthood' expert (I'm hoping on the next family road trip I'll get time to catch up on the season 2 episodes I missed). But this well-constructed drama is something to treasure on the TV schedule -- it's a show that respects our everyday experiences and emotions and yet also manages to entertain.
There are certainly interesting possibilities on the horizon. I'm hoping Adam goes into business with Crosby and that they take over that recording studio (the contrast between the brothers, who could learn a lot from each other, could be interesting). I'm interested to see how Kristina handles a baby at her age. I could -- and this is not an exaggeration -- watch Jason Ritter and Lauren Graham act together all day long.
And I hope that, as it did with 'Friday Night Lights,' NBC sees the wisdom of keeping around a gem that just isn't like anything else.
Two notes: You can watch the final four episodes of season 2 and the season 3 premiere here. And yes, I did hear Max's reference to 'FNL' in the episode. Nice!

Colson Baker[3][4][5] (born April 22, 1990),[6] better known by his stage names MGK and Machine Gun Kelly, is an American rapper, songwriter and actor from Cleveland, Ohio. In 2011, he signed a record deal with Bad Boy, under the aegis of Interscope.
Life and career
1991–2009: Early life and career beginnings
Colson Baker[4] was born on April 22, 1990[6] in Houston, Texas to missionary parents. MGK and his family moved all around the globe and took up residence abroad from Egypt to Germany, as well as throughout the United States in Chicago, Los Angeles, Denver, and Cleveland.[3] He settled in Denver, along with his father after his mother had left home, and the pair moved in with MGK's aunt. Following his father suffering from depression and unemployment, MGK endured bullying from other children in the neighborhood.[7] He started listening to rap in the sixth and seventh grade, when he attended Hamilton Middle School, a school with an ethnically diverse student body in Denver, Colorado.[8] The first two rappers that got him into the genre of hip hop as a child were Ludacris and DMX, with MGK gaining severe interest in the genre after listening to DMX's "We Right Here" from the album The Great Depression (2001).[9] MGK's home life was seldom stable, as he would regularly fight with his father. When he attended Denver's Thomas Jefferson High School, his father moved to Kuwait to work for the army and left him behind to live in a neighbor's basement. During the course of living in the basement, MGK began experimenting with drugs and recorded his first amateur demo tape.
Following his father's departure, MGK stopped attending school and began to make a name for himself by calling out elder classmates. In 2005, his father returned to take them both to Kuwait before the pair were forced back stateside of Cleveland, where MGK attended Shaker Heights High School.[8] While attending Shaker Heights High, he convinced a local t-shirt shop owner to become his manager, as the shop owner would double as a MC manager. Given the stage name Machine Gun Kelly by his fans due to his rapid fire delivery, he released the mixtape Stamp of Approval (2006). The release of the mixtape allowed for his reputation and profile to grow which allowed MGK to begin performing at local Cleveland venues.
In March 2009, while he was on the verge of getting evicted, MGK traveled to Harlem's Apollo Theater, where he had consecutive victories, making him the first ever caucasian rapper to win at the Apollo Theater.[3] He records music in his home studio which he refers to as the "Rage Cage",[8] and started to gain exposure when he was featured on MTV2's Sucker Free Freestyle, where he freestyled numerous verses from his "Chip off the Block" single. In February 2010, he released his second mixtape 100 Words and Running, where he derived his catchphrase, "Lace Up", which started as a mixtape interlude, before making it a prominent reference in his music. Despite relative modest success and rising popularity, MGK found himself working at Chipotle to afford rent, as well as being kicked out by his father after graduating high school. MGK soon also became a father.[3] After he was kicked out, MGK had to move in with Slim Gudz and Dubo in his manager's mother's basement, where he wrote and recorded the majority of his first album.
2009–12: Record deal and Lace Up
In May 2010, he made his national debut with the single "Alice in Wonderland", which was released on iTunes and accompanied a music video along with the song. It was released via Block Starz Music.[10][11][12] The single awarded MGK the "Best Midwest Artist" at the 2010 Underground Music Awards and his "Alice in Wonderland" clip won "Best Music Video" at the 2010 Ohio Hip-Hop Awards.[3] He released his second mixtape in November 2010 titled Lace Up which featured the hometown anthem "Cleveland", which is now played at Cleveland Cavaliers home games and is on rotation on Z107.9 in Cleveland. The mixtape was recorded in three months in 2010 during a creative burst.[8] Following the success of the mixtape, which allowed MGK to gain national exposure, he was featured in XXL in 2011.[13] He then appeared on the Juicy J track "Inhale" which also featured Steve-O from Jackass in the music video. The song was produced by Lex Luger.[3]
In March 2011, MGK participated in his first SXSW show in Austin, Texas, and at the show, he was approached by Sean Combs, who had offered MGK a recording contract with Bad Boy Records, which is associated with and has its content distributed by Interscope.[14] Prior to the contract, he was featured on the XV song "Finally Home".[15] After signing for Bad Boy, MGK released the music video for the song "Wild Boy", which featured Waka Flocka Flame and was produced by GB Hitz. The duo appeared on BET's 106 & Park to promote the single. In mid-2011, MGK signed a deal with Young and Reckless Clothing and then announced a studio release for his first EP, Half Naked & Famous, on Twitter. On February 2, 2012, he tweeted from his official Twitter page, hinting on a March release for the EP. He stated:
Once March hits... it's gonna be a wild ride for all of us. We're gonna watch something we've seen come from the bottom rise way up. LTFU.
Half Naked & Almost Famous released on March 20, 2012, and debuted at 46 on the Billboard 200 with 8,500 copies sold in its first week. As of August 2012, it sold 36,500 copies.
MGK announced via an official statement that his debut album would be titled Lace Up, and would have an intended release on October 9, 2012. "Wild Boy" served as the promotional single for the album and the song debuted on the US Billboard Hot 100 at number 98. It was soon certified gold by the RIAA.[16][17] The song "Invincible" was released on iTunes on December 16, 2011 featuring co-writer and singer Ester Dean as the second single of the album.[18] The song is featured in a commercial for the HTC ReZound[19] as well as the official theme song of WrestleMania XXVIII. WWE also used the song to highlight John Cena in his match with The Rock at the event, with MGK also performing at WrestleMania prior to the main event. "Invincible" is also currently the theme for Thursday Night Football on the NFL network. WWE also used the song "All We Have" to again highlight Cena on his rematch with The Rock at next year's event. On December 14, 2011, MGK was named the Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2011 by MTV.[20] On March 18, 2012, MGK won the MTVu Breaking Woodie award[21] before being featured on the cover of XXL as part of their annual "Top 10 Freshmen list" along with fellow rappers Macklemore, French Montana, Hopsin, Danny Brown, Iggy Azalea, Roscoe Dash, Future, Don Trip and Kid Ink.[22] On August 13, 2012, MGK self-released a mixtape titled EST 4 Life, which contained both old and recently recorded material.[23]
Lace Up was released on October 9, 2012. The album featured guest appearances from Bun B, Cassie, DMX, Ester Dean, Lil Jon, Tech N9ne, Twista, Waka Flocka Flame, Young Jeezy among others. The album debuted at number 4 on the US Billboard 200, with first-week sales of 57,000 copies.[24] It slid down to #22 in its second week, giving it a total of 65,000 copies sold.[25] As of March 24, 2013, the album has sold 178,000 copies.[26]
2012–present: Black Flag and General Admission
In early 2012, MGK announced that he would be releasing a new mixtape. Pusha T and Meek Mill were the first artists to be featured on the mixtape, both appearing on the track "Pe$o". MGK also announced that Wiz Khalifa will be featured on the mixtape.[27] On February 18, 2013, MGK announced the name of the mixtape as Black Flag and revealed the cover. He also released a music video for "Champions" which features Diddy and samples The Diplomats song "We are the Champions", as the music video release served as a promotional video for Black Flag.[28] On June 26, MGK released Black Flag without prior announcement.[29] The mixtape also featured guest appearances from French Montana, Kellin Quinn, Dub-O, Sean McGee and Tezo.[30] On June 4, 2013, MGK posted a picture of a letter on his social media accounts which read:
This project is dedicated to love, because for my entire life it has been taken from me. Granted, when it was given, I pushed it right back. I couldn't handle it. This was until I experienced the loss of love for what I love doing most: music. That was the one thing worth fighting for, even more-so then[sic] the love of my father. I've found that love again. And I plan on never surrendering it. Find what you love and fight!! Black Flag. [31]
Following the release of Black Flag, rumors surfaced that MGK had begun working on his second studio album. In January 2014, he confirmed that he was in the early stages of working on the album, with 2015 being the scheduled year of release. On January 5, 2015, MGK released the song "Till I Die", which was accompanied with a music video on his VEVO account. Months later, a remix of "Till I Die" with hometown fellow hip-hop group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony was confirmed and released on June 5, 2015. The song aired via WorldStarHipHop and featured French Montana, Yo Gotti and Ray Cash. On May 18, 2015, the music video for another song titled "A Little More" was released, with the single featuring vocals from Victoria Monet.[32] MGK soon had an interview with MTV, describing the reason as to why he wrote "A Little More". Stating in the interview: "People always came up to me after the first album and a lot of my friends back home said 'we need something for the streets' and then I did Till I Die. Months later, when I look back at the video [for Till I Die] I [was] like 'Okay, he's in jail, he's shot, he's dead, he snitched' and just to the point where it's sad and I wrote the song to describe how I see the world as a much mature person." He also updated the status on his second studio album, noting that the album is finished, and stating that the album would contain "more lyricism and [would be more] stylistically [influenced by] hip-hop but musically, sonically [would contain] more live instrumentation."[33]
Following MGK's previous affiliation with the company, he made a return to WWE Raw on the June 15, 2015, episode of the show. The show was hosted in MGK's home town of Cleveland and MGK appeared as a guest on the show, performing "Till I Die" and "A Little More". As he finished performing, he was attacked and power-bombed through the stage by WWE superstar Kevin Owens in a storyline. The attack was due to MGK's previous connection with Owens' rival, John Cena. MGK soon announced a national tour to begin in the summer of 2015, touring throughout the United States from early July to the beginning of September, with 31 planned dates throughout the course of the two months. Following MGK's annual EST Fest in 2014, an event where fans gather to meet and greet the rapper, MGK handed 5000 fans a card with the name of the album written on it but he did not disclose the paper as having the album name written on it. On June 25, MGK released the title of his sophomore album as General Admission, due to be released in late September of 2015.[34] On July 23, 2015, MGK released Fuck It, a 10-track mixtape containing songs that didn't make the final tracklist of General Admission.
Personal life
MGK has a child named Casie, who was born in 2008. Stated on his website: "Not long after, an 18 year-old MGK welcomed his own child, a daughter named Casie."[35] Although MGK and the child's mother are no longer together, they are on good terms, with MGK going as far as using the advance money from his record deal to buy a new house for her and Casie.
MGK has openly spoken about his previous 2 year heroin addiction, making a song referencing the addiction titled "Lead You On", and with the song having a profound impact on him, it has allowed for him to self-refer "Lead You On" as his most meaningful song.[36] MGK was forced through a period of homelessness to feed the addiction in 2010, and therefore attended a rehabilitation center in which he was aided by a guidance counsellor to combat the addiction. MGK even contemplated suicide by drug overdose, contemplating whether to "stick that shit up in my skin and overdose [on heroin] so I can't have it again", but managed to combat the addiction and was able to remain sober since 2010, suffering no recorded relapse since.
Despite previously having a heroin addiction, MGK is open about his use of cannabis and he has claimed in many interviews that he smokes daily, describing it as a "source of happiness and a way people can feel a little more love [in their own right]." He has frequently mentioned cannabis references within sources of his music and rap persona, making it a forefront of both his rap and personal character.[37]
MGK cites DMX and Eminem as music influences, as well as listening rock bands Guns N' Roses and Blink-182 during his youth, citing the latter rap artist and rock band as major musical influences.[38]
In May 2015, reports surfaced that MGK was dating hip hop model Amber Rose. On May 26, MGK confirmed the relationship during an AOL Build interview. He later elaborated about their relationship on New York Hot 97, saying:
- "Everything was completely natural; it wasn't anything that I had expected or had planned... You know, when the universe throws something your way... I'm one of those people who goes with it, and I don't fight it."
Rose also confirmed the relationship during an interview on Real 92.3 on June 2, 2015, saying: "We're dating. We're just getting to know each other. He's a really nice guy. He treats me really, really nice, and I have a blast with him."

Obamacare's Costly Flaw
February 25, 2010
David Gratzer
The administration has blamed rising costs on things that make U.S. health care different from other countries, but the data suggests otherwise.
Today, President Obama will meet with congressional leaders for a summit to discuss reforming American health care. The White House is expected to tout aggressive measures to reign in spending, and then contrast the presidents ideas with the smaller and in the administrations view less substantive Republican proposals. And while the White House may or may not be successful in persuading Americans during the televised event, data from around the world suggests that White House proposals are unlikely to do much to "bend the curve" of health costs, to use the presidents favorite expression.
On this, we can all agree: American health care is feverishly expensive, swallowing up 17 percent of GDP. Since 2000, health-insurance premiums have more than doubled, affecting the bottom lines of businesses and hitting Middle America in the pocketbook.
Its not surprising, then, that since inauguration the administration has made the reduction of "long-term growth of health-care costs for businesses and government" its highest priority for health reform. "If we do nothing, then health-care inflation is going to keep on going up at 8 percent, 9 percent, 10 percent a year," the president said last July, urging immediate action.
Over this past year, the administration has blamed rising costs on things that make U.S. health care different. American private insurers are too greedy. American doctors prescribe wastefully. American doctors are paid inefficiently.
The White House has pushed sweeping measures: a Medicare-style plan to compete with private insurance; new bureaucratic committees to define and oversee private coverage; expansions of public programs; and a government body tasked with bettering health care by guiding the decisions of doctors. White House budget director Peter Orszag crowed that the latest Obamacare bill "contains more cost containment and delivery-system reforms . . . than any bill that has ever been considered on the Senate floor, period."
Of course, the very same "cost containment" systems exist in countries with socialized health care. And if the White House has confidence in a government-based solution to this problem, heres the irony: Health-care inflation rates in the United States have been similar to those in government-managed systems that often employ the sort of regulatory policies championed by the White House.
Over the long term, the difference between the rise in costs of American health care and the OECD average from 1990 to 2006 was just 0.4 percent annually — even though bureaucrats manage most of the health spending in those other countries. Jump ahead a few years, and the trend hasnt changed. Health care might be cheaper in socialized systems (in part, because of rationed care), but, even with their long waiting lists, costs are rising just as quickly there as here. Consider the 2009 figures:
Canada is an interesting case study, since private insurance is banned in most of the country. Yet commentary in newspapers would be familiar to an American reader. The Toronto Star insists "something must be done" to reverse "unsustainable" spending growth. The Globe and Mail describes spiraling health costs as a "ticking time bomb." But if costs are rising, government rationing can be felt. This month, the Province of Newfoundlands highest elected official, Premier Danny Williams, went to the United States for urgent heart surgery, insisting the necessary treatment was unavailable in Newfoundland.
And how did the United States do with its lack of Obama-inspired Canada-Irish-German-style bureaucratic controls? Health inflation here was 3.4 percent last year, just over double the basic inflation rate. Tellingly, the worst cost increases were experienced by . . . government. Medicare costs were up 8.6 percent, and Medicaid, up 9.9 percent.
Make no mistake: That 3.4 percent may be lower than the alarmists predicted, but its still no cause for celebration. Whether its as high as other countries or not, health inflation is unsustainable. And international trends suggest health inflation is caused by the things that make America similar to other Western nations: worsening diet and fitness habits; higher health expectations; an aging population; costly new medical technologies; and payment systems that tend to insulate people from the economic consequences of their decisions (mainly private insurance here and public insurance abroad).
If the president wants to have a useful talk about health reform, his summit should focus on affordable wellness incentives, cutting expensive, one-size-fits-all regulations, and creating market competition to attack the real causes of health inflation. Sadly, the summit is more likely to be another attempt at political theater, with government-run "cost containment" as the dog-eared script.

"Most native people speak of their land as having different tones. All land has a tone to which we can respond, a note by which we can orient ourselves. By learning to hear the land's song, you will recognize your own life song and learn what creates harmony and dissonance for you."
Artist Biography
Born and educated in Toronto, Ontario, Lynn Soehner is a professional artist whose acrylic on canvas paintings are recognized for being graphically bolder with rich, exotic colors, offering a kind of cadence or rhythm which evokes the "Spirit of Place". What is consistent in her art, is a sense of ease, even playfulness in her colour choice and treatment of forms. Soehner's work is frequently used on products and in magazines to convey the "feeling" of the land.
Commissions accepted; giclees and laser copies offered of most images.

Portugal last year…exhausted after fashion filled month in New York a good friend was on her way to Lisbon for a shoot, and who am I to turn down a spot at the Four Seasons and the inside view of a city that being on a production brings. All I heard was "much needed instant vacation". The night before heading home it was time for one last dinner, we wanted to walk from the hotel and as luck has it the best meal I had during my visit was the last one, an unexpected wonderful surprise. Bocca delivered what was one of the top 10 meals of my life. The highlight of the evening was a wine chosen for me by the sommelier. Without knowing Portuguese wine in any way, all I had to offer were the words Bordeaux, Malbec, Barolo….the kind man was a genius and I ended up being treated to one of the most amazing wines I've had the pleasure of tasting. Even better in Portugal it's not pricey, and the label was stunning. The details he jotted down on a post-it for me and I take it with me as I make my way back to Los Angeles. Once home I hunt, and I do mean literally hunt the vineyard down. No US distributor, a UK one who's on holiday, and a website for the brand. I send word in all directions…. and amazingly Ronald my soon to become e-mail pen pal responded. He's at the winery, he may be able to ship to me, and he has what I want! Yes!
Long Long Long and by long I mean 3 months long story short, Ronald is able to ship me 4 cases (which fly via British Airways to LA, that seems somewhat posh to me for an unexplainable reason) and they get STUCK in customs because I'm not a wine importer. Tessa who has just started with Geren Ford dives in deep to help me out, thank goodness no is not an option for her and after much back and forth and a multitude of ideas, one of which was "SEND IT BACK TO PORTUGAL" which gave me hives, it arrives. Not with the same glamour as it's flight here, but on Christmas eve at noon on Ventura Blvd in Sherman Oaks I meet Jesus to procure my 4 cases of gold out of the back of a delivery truck too large to make it up the windy roads to my house in the Hollywood Hills. The 4 cases are all that is in the truck. I feel like I'm accepting stolen goods, but I am not. I am 6 hours away from heading to LAX for a much-needed St. Barths stay over to celebrate the holidays and ring in the New Year. I am happy to report that a bottle went with me and was enjoyed by all on a tiny island in the Caribbean
Cargo safely in my pantry.

We all face the issue of duplicated content as we increasingly use RSS feeds, excerpts and smart use of recycled content from one web assets to the other. This week, it was brought to my attention duplicate content might have a negative impact on SEO. It sounds logical that duplicate content may not create an optimum user experience and when abused can raise flags for search engine crawlers.
This post from the Google web master tool indicates duplicated content only becomes an issue when it is an intentional attempt to fool customer and search engines. This being said, there are great points here about how Google prioritize web sites with similar content, based on relevance and popularity.
For those of us who have multiple web sites and are unsure how Google rank them by order of priority, this post provides some good insights.

Chuck star Adam Baldwin has replaced Titus Welliver in the TNT pilot for Michael Bay's project The Last Ship.
Deadline reports Welliver (Deadwood) dropped the project because of a health emergency in the family. TNT did not state who was unwell, but Deadline says Welliver's wife has been ill recently.
The show focuses on the crew of the USS Nathan James after a global disaster in which they are among the small number of survivors on Earth. Baldwin will play Mike Slattery, who is second in command to Eric Dane's character, Captain Tom Chandler. The two will have conflicting viewpoints about strategy in various situations.
The pilot is based on William Brinkley's novel of the same name.
Bay is executive producing the pilot and Jonathan Mostow is directing. Hank Steinberg (Without a Trace) and Steven Kane (The Closer) are writing the script. Steinberg is the show's frontrunner according to TV Guide .
Baldwin is well-known for his role as spy John Casey on Chuck, and his role on the Joss Whedon show Firefly as Jayne Cobb.
He recently guest starred on Law & Order: SVU for three episodes.

Gorgeous dinnerplate-sized orange dahlias growing in my Alaskan garden reminded me of the firey passion I have for painting.

UF Building Destroyed by Fire
It is a well-known concept, taught over and over again in University of Florida's College of Forestry classes:
Nothing is permanent in the forest and change is a constant.
UF officials say they had sad proof of that Tuesday.
A University of Florida facility used for classes, conference, and even weddings for more than 20 years was destroyed in a fire.
Officials are still investigating what ignited a fire that destroyed the conference building in the Austin Cary Memorial Forest in Northeast Alachua County.
Officials say around 2:30, Tuesday afternoon, black smoke -- and then fire -- was seen coming from the facility.
Emergency workers found the building engulfed in flames.
Crews used more than 20 thousand gallons of water, but that wasn't enough to save the building.
UF officials say the loss will affect many, including displaced students.
The facility was built in 1987.
Officials say it replaced another building that had been destroyed in a fire as well.
