Electric Wizard / crowd @ Webster Hall - 4/2/15
UK doom legends Electric Wizard brought their first North American tour in over a decade to NYC last night (4/2) for a Webster Hall show that unsurprisingly sold out well in advance. Electric Wizard have released four albums since their last NYC show, and last night's set was split between the most recent three (Time to Die, Black Masses and Witchcult Today), as well as a few from the timeless Come My Fanatics... and Dopethrone. The only played nine songs, but they stretch them out maaan, and the whole show was as heavy and psychedelic as you'd hope.
Satan's Satyrs opened. More pictures of both bands, and Electric Wizard's setlist, below...

The 2015 Primavera Sound Festival goes down in Barcelona, Spain from May 28 - 30.

NYC heavy roundup: Hellbent Hooker, Meek Is Murder, Couch Slut, Mortals, Watain, Napalm Death, Behemoth, Torche & more
Hellbent Hooker
As always, there are tons of good metal and metal-related tours swinging through NYC and other one-off heavy shows happening here. We don't get around to posting all of them, so here's a roundup of some of the local heavy shows coming up that we're excited about:
Hellbent Hooker, who feature members of Ramming Speed and Mutilation Rites, play the Acheron TONIGHT (1/8) with support from Meth Valley and Mammal. When we first wrote about them, we said, "If you've never experienced the over-the-top spectacle that is Hellbent Hooker, you're in luck. Prepare for a gross-out session... in the best ways possible." Tickets for tonight are on sale.
On Sunday (1/11) at Saint Vitus, mathcore shredders Meek Is Murder team up with Vomit Fist, Aminals and Budd Dwyer. Tickets are on sale.
Couch Slut, who released their excellent debut album, My Life As A Woman, last year, return to Saint Vitus on January 23 with Tile, Microwaves and Chain Gang Grave. Tickets are on sale.
Brooklyn trio Mortals, who put out a great album on Relapse last year, were already announced to open the first night of Eyehategod's 2-night stand at Saint Vitus (tickets), and they've since added their own show happening soon after on February 15 at Acheron. The Black Antler and Nerve Shatter open. Tickets for that one are on sale now.
As a reminder, some previously discussed metal tours are about to hit NYC too. There's the unmissable High on Fire / Windhand double bill hitting Vitus on Friday (1/9) for two shows, but unfortunately both are sold out.
Watain at Irving Plaza in 2012 (more by Greg Cristman)
The next night, the killer black metal bill of Mayhem, Watain and Revenge descends upon Webster Hall (1/10). Tickets for that one are still available.
The great local double bill of Tombs and Black Anvil happens 1/30 at Acheron (tix).
The "holy shit this is real" bill of Napalm Death, Voivod, Exhumed and Iron Reagan happens February 2 at Gramercy Theater. You can still grab tickets for that.
Get equal doses of black and death metal when the 1349 / Origin / Abysmal Dawn / Wolvhammer tour hits NYC on February 23 at Gramercy Theatre (tickets).
Just a few days after that, you'll probably want to head to Webster Hall (2/28) where two death metal legends, Behemoth and Cannibal Corpse, bring their co-headlining tour. Aeon and Tribulation open. Tickets are still available.
March is stacked so far as well. Legendary Swedes Nifelheim are making a rare and very anticipated NYC appearance on March 15 at Saint Vitus with Ares Kingdom (ex-Order from Chaos), Slutvomit and Iron Force. Get tickets.
The following weekend gets pretty nuts. West Coast black metal greats Dispirit finally make their East Coast debut at Saint Vitus on March 20 and 22 with different sets and different openers each night (tickets). And right smack in the middle of those two shows, the killer Enslaved / Yob / Ecstatic Vision tour hits Gramercy Theater (3/21). You can still get tickets for that one too.
Looking forward a bit to the spring, Electric Wizard's first North American tour in over 10 years hits Webster Hall on April 2. That's unfortunately sold out, but you can try your luck on StubHub or something. This one's not to miss.
Only 10 days later, you may find yourself back at Webster Hall (4/12), where the At the Gates / Converge / Pallbearer / Vallenfyre tour will be blowing minds. Tickets for that one are still on sale.
Of course these are just a few options and there's always more. What else?
Oh, and in one last bit of non-show news, Torche recently dropped another ripper from their upcoming LP on Relapse. Stream it below...

Electric Wizard announces first North American tour in over ten years, playing Webster Hall! (2015 dates)
by Andrew Sacher
Electric Wizard at MDF 2012 (more by Fred Pessaro)
The last time Electric Wizard played the US was MDF 2012, and that was their first show here since 2002. Now the UK doom masters have announced a full North American tour for 2015 with Satan's Satyrs kicking off in Philly in late March and ending on April 19 in LA! The tour includes a NYC show happening on April 2 at Webster Hall, which looks like it will be their first show in the city since playing North Six in 2002. Tickets for Webster go on sale at 10 AM on Friday (12/19). All dates are listed below.
Electric Wizard released their eighth album this year, the excellent Time to Die. It's the kind of evil psychedelic doom that EW mastered on their seminal albums Come My Fanatics... and Dopethrone that still no one does quite like them. Watch a fan-made, band-approved video for "We Love the Dead" from that album, with the tour flyer and list of dates, below.

Gazelle Twin's 'Unflesh'
Now that it's December, Best of Lists Season is in full swing. If you're already tired of seeing ones that have The War on Drugs at the top (or near it), you can always rely on UK website The Quietus to offer up something different. They just published their "Albums Of The Year 2014" and topping it is electronic artist Gazelle Twin's second album, Unflesh. Say The Quietus:
On Unflesh, Gazelle Twin - aka Elizabeth Bernholz - doesn't see dualism as an academic exercise or a philosophical plaything. Instead, it's born of bloody experience as she claws and digs her way to its gory, physical core. Puberty, anxiety, miscarriage, illness and euthanasia are all present, and Bernholz's treatment of them ranges from a shuddering disgust to vengeful catharsis to something approaching tender acceptance.The Quietus' list is not without names familiar to readers of our site -- Swans, Scott Walker & Sunn O))), FKA twigs, Aphex Twin, Future Islands -- but it definitely does not follow the beaten path.
Check out The Quietus' full "Albums Of The Year 2014" (and stream a few songs from their #1) below...

Another stream out this week from one of the year's most anticipated metal albums (though an entirely different side of the spectrum from Blut Aus Nord) is the full LP stream of UK doom vets Electric Wizard's Time to Die, due 9/30 via Spinefarm Records. It follows 2010's Black Masses and about two decades of the band's expertly crafted doom, and it's a reminder that no one does it quite like Electric Wizard. The riffs are crushing, sharp and stick in your head, Jus Oborn still sounds distorted and demonic, and the interspersed clips of a news anchor linking teen death to "rock music associated with devil worship" shows they still have a sense of humor too. Stream the whole thing at NPR.

British stoner-metal heavyweights Electric Wizard are streaming another track from their forthcoming LP Time To Die. Its called "SadioWitch" and its built around a pretty fast riff by Electric Wizard standards. The production is as crusty and brutal as ever, and despite the ever-so-slight change of pace, it basically, and like the other single they released, sounds like classic Electric Wizard. Which is to say, it slays.
Check out the new tune over at Pitchfork and watch the video for the other song off Time To Die, "I Am Nothing," below.

The Heavy Lowdown: "Mastodong," Meshuggah, Minsk, Leprous, Panopticon, Pyrrhon, Electric Wizard & more
By Ian Chainey
behold...the Mastadong (via @bhinds)
Mastodon's Brent Hinds carved a giant penis out of wood. That part is fine, it's the fact every metal news site lead with the. . . hard hitting story this week. So remember, whenever you get sick of the omnipresent coverage of an over-hyped band: one giant wooden wiener will always trump them all. Metal!
More dick news: Belgium's Brutal Fest was canceled due to bands battling with the promoter. The concert was set to bring together Vader, Aeon, Aborted, and others, but it was KO'd, in the words or both Aeon and Aborted, "Due to the unprofessional and fraudulent acts of the promoter. . . " Brutal Fest's Facebook followed up with, "I can't continue any longer with this event due medical reasons and that's probably the main reason for the cancellation." Probably the main reason? Is the medical reason Mementosis?
Elsewhere: Can't make a Meshuggah show? Worry not, it's coming to the comfort of your own home. The tech-y Swedes are putting out another concert CD/DVD package called The Ophidian Trek out on September 30 and this one is pretty expansive. You can check out the details below. And, because the internet, Meshuggah also received the "Space Jam" mash-up treatment courtesy of Analog Staple. Seems there is an entire subreddit dedicated to pairing songs with the Quad City DJ's, uh, classic.
A few artists/bands have new irons in the fire: Post-metallers Minsk are set to hit the studio soon. They're eying 2015 for their next album. PHILM, one of the current projects of Dave Lombardo, will release their sophomore album Fire From The Evening Sun on UDR Music on September 16. Num Skull, the cult-adored '80s thrasher, are getting Ritually Abused back out on Relapse Records on September 16 (preorder). You can check out a remastered track below. And Dee Snider is putting on Titus Andronicus with puppets. What do you wanna do with your life? I wanna put on Shakespeare plays with puppets! Look what you did, now your mother can't stop crying. Check out Snider's segment on Fox News' 411 below.
Concert madness: Leprous, the Norwegian progsters famous for backing Ihsahn, will be playing nerd-metal-haven ProgPower on September 12 in Atlanta, Georgia. Then, they'll stay in the states for a bit. They'll check into NYC's Webster Hall on September 20 with the Binary Code (tickets). Their full list of dates appears below. Pyrrhon have a tour coming up and they'll also be playing a show at NYC's Saint Vitus on August 18 with Revocation, Artificial Brain, and Psalm Zero. Tickets are available now. And in the rarely used "Metallica does cool thing" bucket, there's a neat documentary available on YouTube detailing Metallica playing a Netherlands date in 1984. You can watch it below.
Don't forget to keep up with the rest of our metal coverage during the week.
Now that you're, ahem, fully briefed, let's recap all of the A/V transmissions.
For the full-album previews: Appalachian black metallers Panopticon are streaming Roads to North at NPR. That record is also out today.

Death metallers Lago loosed "Concede To Oblivion" from Tyranny (September 16, Battleground Records). Ragers Old Wounds put up "Dead Beat Blues" off of Death Projection (September 16, Good Fight Music - preorder). Bay Area doomers Cardinal Wyrm laid down the nasty "Born In A Barren Land" from Black Hole Gods (August 5). And mind-effers Big Black Cloud decided two premieres were the way to go in supporting Lessons In Fuck You 2 (August 5, Eolian Empire - preorder). All tracks can be heard below.
Finally, to close things down, Electric Wizard now have a video for "I Am Nothing." Surprise: DRUGS! Time To Die is out on September 30 via Spinefarm Records (preorder). Activate that sixth circuit below.

Let's talk IO: We were juggling tons of features this week. As we always do, we tracked the week's new stuff in Upcoming Metal Releases. We went all music television with two video premieres: Music Blues and Below. Ah, now I'm sad. We premiered two albums: the Dogma/Corrupt Leaders split and a Sarcofago repress. We hit the reviews hard with Coral Cross and Fallujah. Dave Hall put his Canadian citizenship in doubt with a rant against the Polaris Prize. And we interviewed Aðalbjörn Tryggvason of Sólstafir.
Alright, consider the decks cleared. What did we miss? What are your plans? Let us know and catch all of the dates, reams of streams, and other noted details below...

Time to Die cover art
UK doomers Electric Wizard have unveiled the first song from their forthcoming album Time to Die. Titled "I Am Nothing," the track quickly showcases the next guitar tone bands will be working towards emulating. It recalls the bassy onslaught of their classic Dopethrone, while adding all kinds of grit and filth into the growl. The song itself is an 11-minute trudge through the Wizard's patented formula of Hammer Horror-derived ominousness fused to a crawling, biker boogie groove and feedback-soaked psych. Singer/guitarist's pained wails of "I am nothing/you are nothing" complete the track's descent into nihilistic nuttiness.
Time to Die, the band's eighth long-player and first since 2010's Black Masses, is due out on Spinefarm Records on September 30. Said Jus regarding the album's theme, "All of our albums in the past have had a theme -- revenge, drugs, black magick -- and the theme of this one is death. Of course, death to us really means rebirth, so this album is a manifestation of a very primal occult belief in the final sacrifice. We have gone full circle -- it was inevitable, but we had to do it. We had to kill the band so we could be reborn. It was the only way to ensure we could come back even stronger." While a tour to support the new record hasn't been announced, Electric Wizard will be playing the Euro festival circuit this fall.
All of the dates are listed, along with the "I Am Nothing" stream, below...

Electric Wizard at MDF 2012 (More by Fred Pessaro)
UK doomers Electric Wizard announced a new album. This one is called Time to Die and the title plays into a theme, according to singer/guitarist Jus Oborn: "All of our albums in the past have had a theme -- revenge, drugs, black magick -- and the theme of this one is death. Of course, death to us really means rebirth, so this album is a manifestation of a very primal occult belief in the final sacrifice. We have gone full circle -- it was inevitable, but we had to do it. We had to kill the band so we could be reborn. It was the only way to ensure we could come back even stronger." A release date hasn't been lined up, but Electric Wizard will be playing some select Euro fests this summer. Cover art and dates can be seen below.
In tour news, Empty Vessels, who recently played Punk Island, are hitting the road in support of the Kurt Ballou-produced Seizures Within Reason. This tour mainly swings through the West Coast. The full slate of dates and three tracks from Seizures Within Reason are below.
Don't forget to keep up with the rest of our metal coverage during the week.

Plus, Judas Priest have put the entirety of Redeemer of Souls on iTunes. They'll be hitting New York in the fall. Wolvhammer have unveiled Clawing Into Black Sun (preorder). You can check that one out below. Finally, Mortals -- who will be playing a record release show at the Acheron on July 18 -- dropped the monstrous Cursed To See the Future (preorder), which you can play below.

But the highlight of the week were the pretty pictures snapped at Agalloch and Martyrdoom.

Behemoth at Irving Plaza, 2012 (more by Greg Cristman)
Behemoth frontman Nergal is kind of a badass -- he's an extremely gifted musician and a live-performance powerhouse who's played an important role in putting the potent Polish metal scene on the international map over the past 20 years. He's also a cancer survivor; after his 2010 leukemia diagnosis, he underwent chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant. Two years later, Behemoth were back on the road and plowing through high-energy live sets like nothing had happened. Again, badass.
Behemoth announced a 2014 release for The Satanist -- their tenth album, and their first in half a decade -- a few months ago. I admittedly haven't been too excited by their last few efforts, but after watching the NSFW video for leadoff single "Blow Your Trumpets Gabriel" (streaming below), my enthusiasm for the band has been rekindled. It's far moodier and more patient composition than the cluttered, robotic death/black metal that they've produced recently. They can still put the hammer down when they need to, though; the song's final minute is both the catchiest and most intense moment I've heard them produce since the mid-aughts. The video is pretty cool too, especially if you're into artsy black-and-white shots of evil rituals happening in slow motion.
In related news, Behemoth were also recently announced as part of the initial lineup for the 2014 edition of France's Hellfest, which will take place from June 20 through 22 (6/20-6/22). The lineup so far is huge and crazy: there's a "huge rock band" stage, featuring Iron Maiden, Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Soundgarden, among others; a big-name thrash/black metal stage that spotlights Slayer, Death Angel, Emperor, Iced Earth, Behemoth, and more; a death metal stage that will include Death To All, Carcass, Opeth, Nile, Gorguts, Hail of Bullets, and Weekend Nachos; a smaller black metal stage topped off by Watain, Gorgoroth and 1349; a sludge/stoner stage featuring Electric Wizard, Monster Magnet, Unida, Kylesa, Godflesh, and Clutch; and a punk stage topped by Walls of Jericho, Millencolin, and Turbonegro. Wow. You can reserve tickets now, if you feel like parsing the Google-Translated ticket page.
Check out the Behemoth video and the full set of Hellfest announcements below.

As discussed, Unearthly Trance may have gone the way of the mastodon, but their mammoth doom riffs trample on in Serpentine Path, the new band featuring members of UT plus Tim of Ramesses/Electric Wizard fame. You can read an interview with them from last year for more info.
The band released their debut 7" via Parasitic last year, and now the band is preparing to release their debut LP via Relapse Records on September 11 which you can preorder here. We're debuting the track from the album, "Only a Monolith Remains," below and you can stream another track as well.
So far no word on any live shows, but I'd get my earplugs ready. They're-a-comin'.

Maryland Deathfest Day 4: Saint Vitus, Mortuary Drape, Bethlehem, Rwake, Church of Misery, Disma and more
by BBG
Saint Vitus
Arguably the centerpiece of the entire Maryland Deathfest lineup was the return of the UK doom juggernaut Electric Wizard (pictures HERE), so suffice it to say that a large portion of the Sunday (on 5/28) roster leaned in that direction. Doom legends Saint Vitus headlined the second stage that night, while the bluesy Church of Misery, glacially-paced Cough, zen-like Yob and eclectic Rwake all represented for the genre.
The rest of the day fell all over the map, from speedy straight-edge to grind, black metal to crust, and death metal of the technical and primitive sorts. The odd-experimentalism of Bethlehem caught my ear the most, but sets from the always entertaining Suffocation, Disma, Pentagram (black/thrash from Chile), Ulcerate, Mortuary Drape and Agents of Abhorrence were similarly fun. I unfortunately arrived too late to catch Backslider or Coke Bust. Demonical's old school Swedish death metal sounded excellent but didn't put on much of a live show and my flirtation with Morgoth was interrupted in favor of Rwake's full set.
More pictures from the final day at Maryland Deathfest is below. If you missed it, check out pictures from day 1 HERE (and Rorschach HERE), day 2 HERE and day 3 HERE.

Electric Wizard at Maryland Death Fest 5/27/12
Between Godflesh (who headlined Friday) and Electric Wizard who wrapped things up on Sunday (5/27), Maryland Deathfest was a must see event for fans of metal in the US. Though rain slowed the opening of Electric Wizard's approach to the outdoor stage on Sunday, they nonetheless made it on stage for their first US appearance in eleven years. The UK quartet, sporting an entirely new rhythm section, were definitely worthy of said top slot, playing material from across their catalog to legions of fist-raised fans.
Check out pictures, a partial setlist, an video of Deathfest set below. If you missed it, check out photos from day 1 HERE (and Rorschach HERE), day 2 HERE, day 3 HERE and day 4 HERE.

Roadburn 2013 curator revealed; watch Voivod perform 'Dimension Hatross' & more video from Roadburn 2012
by BBG
If you're anything like me, you spent the weekend wishing you were at Roadburn 2012. This year's Tilburg festival included Voivod performing Dimension Hatröss in full. Luckily youtube allows us to live vicariously through the weekend, and you can stream the entirety of Voivod's set, along with video recaps of each of the four days of this year's fest, below.
Roadburn announced their 2013 edition recently as well... featuring curator Jus Osborn of Electric Wizard!
As curator, Jus Oborn will personally select the bands that will play during the special event at Roadburn, and Electric Wizard will perform a special headline show... Their horror film fixation and psychedelic tendencies are completely in tune with Roadburn and their music is loved by all who come to our festival, so it makes perfect sense that Jus Oborn will be the next in the select group of curators that includes David Tibet, Neurosis, Tom Gabriel Warrior, Sunn 0))), and Voivod. In addition to Jus curating, Electric Wizard will be bringing their live show to Roadburn on Friday, April 19th, 2013.Sounds more like a good trip to me.
Jus also shared these thoughts regarding the event "I am planning the ultimate ELECTRIC ACID ORGY...its gonna be sick...only the heaviest, most evil drugmetal possible and we will bring our mind altering light show and visuals. Also we are gonna have a room showing all our favourite horror and sleaze movies...Roadburn 2013 is gonna be a real 'bad' trip ...hahahahaha."
Electric Wizard (with a reportedly all new rhythm section?) will play Maryland Deathfest this year.

Lists are very subjective. A "best of" list is always an amalgam of personal experiences - that fateful moment when you press "Play" for the first time, in addition to a grade of excellent songwriting. The records I've listed below had a profound impact on me this year, as did many of the shows that I attended and put on in the past twelve months. I'd like to thank all the artists who made this list as well as the ones who didn't, in addition to people like 1000 Knives, Osiris, Bill Dozer, Ian Dickson and venues like Union Pool, The Studio at Webster Hall, Acheron, Santos Party House and a slew of others for keeping heavy music alive in NYC. But mostly, thank YOU, the reader and the listener!
Alright, enough with the sappy bulshit, let's RAGE...

Folkin' black proggers Agalloch has announced that they are at work on their fourth LP, the follow-up the the critically acclaimed Ashes Against The Grain! The band recently parted ways with The End and "have received several offers ranging from the ridiculous to the very interesting" with respect to a new home, but no decision is expected until 2009. Meanwhile, Agalloch also announced the release of The Demonstration Archive, a retrospective of songs from 1996 - 1998 before they signed to the label. For more info on The Demonstration Archive, including how to pick it up, head here.
As we announced a couple weeks ago, doomy instrumental trio Capricorns have released River Bear Your Bones in jolly old England, but the US will see the record on September 30th. Have no fear, as we have posted 25% of the whole record (above) for you to download!
Intronaut's new record, Prehistoricisms, is up for preorder, with or without a limited edition tee ($4 more). Check out "The Literal Black Cloud" from Prehistoricisms here.
Black Anvil
World, Black Anvil. Black Anvil, world. I wish it was that easy, because word needs to get out on these grim lords constructed from ex-members of Kill Your Idols. Drawing from early black metal and thrash and with only an occasional foray into Emperor-style tremolo picking, their new LP Time Insults The Mind is an unholy creature of shadow. Check out "Ten Talons Deep" available for download above and the video of the band tearing through "Deathsomnia" (also from Time...). and pick up the record at Momentum Records when it drops. The band is also playing Traxx in Ronkonkoma on August 23rd and The Charleston on Sept 30th.

If there is a HAPU, the staff nurse, nurse manager, and one of the wound care team show up and explain what is happening. "Within 24 hours, we already have a handle what we can do to prevent it—what process or education do we need," says Whitworth.
The hospital always had a skin and wound care committee that met monthly and focused on education and what the current HAPU issues were on the floor. But it wasn't focused on prevention, which is now its main focus, says Whitworth. It also expanded the committee to represent all units. It didn't have pediatrics, surgical services, or the emergency department represented, for example.
It is imperative for hospitals to identify HAPUs that are present on admission, she explains. If a patient comes into the ED with a heart attack, the focus is on the heart attack. But as soon as that patient is stable, St. Mary's set the standard that staff need to do a skin and risk assessment.
The hospital restructured its staff education process as well. St. Mary's wanted to know whether its staff could assess patients, do a grading scale, and score them appropriately. "If patients weren't scored correctly, we weren't putting in the interventions," says Whitworth. St. Mary's now has mandatory competencies and annual skills reviews solely on skin and pressure ulcer prevention.
Each unit also has a skin champion who performs process data collection on a weekly basis, she says. They look at the care of five patients on their unit and evaluate the processes the team excels in or needs to work on. Some units maybe good at turning but struggle with handoffs, Whitworth explains, so this brings it to the unit-level rather than setting a hospital-wide initiative to focus on turning.
Hospitals should ensure that HAPU processes are not duplicate work and that they are as user-friendly as possible, says Whitworth. For example, St. Mary's developed a list of interventions that staff should do based on the HAPU's level. The system is now automated in its electronic medical record, but they had a paper version prior to launching the EMR.

Expiration Date:?Jan 2020
Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.18 lbs (0.08 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

jako je ugodna na dodir i divno miriše. malo je tvrđa za razmazivati nego neke druge kreme, ali nije premasna. voljela bih da je veće pakiranje od barem 100 g.

Fisher made decision on Gregg Williams months ago
23 hours ago By Jim Thomas firstname.lastname@example.com 314-340-8197
INDIANAPOLIS Rams coach Jeff Fisher said he made the decision not to bring back Gregg Williams well before the season ended.
Without Williams because of his Bountygate suspension for the entire 2012 season, the Rams defense changed its personality from the heavy-blitzing style of Williams. And Fisher was happy with the results.
We just felt like we wanted this to be the Ram defense, so were moving in a little different direction from what Greggs philosophies are," Fisher said.
Fisher said he hasnt spoken with Williams since his reinstatement, which basically coincided with his hiring as senior defensive assistant for the Tennessee Titans.
Im happy that it worked out the way it did, said Fisher, who has known Williams for a long time. I think Gregg can help the Titans, and help Coach (Mike) Munchak and of course (defensive coordinator) Jerry Gray. The other side of that is that they can help him to re-establish himself back in the league.

Obama names Elena Kagan as Supreme Court nominee
It's official: President Obama has chosen Solicitor General Elena Kagan as his nominee to succeed retiring Justice John Paul Stevens on the U.S. Supreme Court. As solicitor general, Kagan is the federal government's chief advocate before the Supreme Court, though she has never served as a judge. A former dean of Harvard Law School, at age 50 she also would be the youngest justice and the third female on the court. What are Kagan's legal views? Is she the best choice to replace the high court's flagship liberal justice? And are we headed for a contentious confirmation process?

The Jim Crow Museum
Tour the Jim Crow museum with founder and curator, Dr. David Pilgrim. Dr. Pilgrim discusses some of the major themes of the Jim Crow Museum. Jim Crow was not just a character or a set of "laws", it was a system that built upon itself to create and sustain a society with a racial hierarchy.
"Hateful Things"
From Aunt Jemima advertisements to the board game Ghettopoly, American popular culture is replete with racist images. The Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia features an extensive collection of racist objects that trace the history of the stereotyping of African Americans.
Full Description of 'Hateful Things' Exhibit »
"THEM: Images of Separation," is a traveling exhibition that showcases items from popular culture used to stereotype different groups. The negative imagery -- found on postcards, license plates, games, souvenirs and costumes -- promoted stereotyping against such groups as Asian-Americans, Hispanics, Jews and poor whites, as well as those who are "other" in terms of body type or sexual orientation.
Full Description of 'Them' Exhibit »
The battle continues as racial images and items are produced daily. Objects with racist themes are created, produced, and sold weekly in the United States.
The Jim Crow Museum is proud to announce that the book "Understanding Jim Crow: Using Racist Memorabilia to Teach Tolerance and Promote Social Justice" written by Dr. Pilgrim has been released.

Thousands evacuated as largest of California wildfires spreads
(CNN)Thousands of California acres are ablaze as firefighters battle at least 21 wildfires throughout the state, but while many of those fires are small or mostly contained, the wind and heat that are spreading the Rocky Fire in Northern California -- and the area's steep terrain -- are causing the most concern.
However, the clouds Sunday carried silver linings: cooler temperatures and increased humidity. Even with high winds in the area, those conditions should reduce the blaze's spread, though fire officials warned that the state's drought has been so severe, firefighters might need more than cooler temperatures to douse the blaze.
'A tinderbox': Firefighter dies as thousands battle California wildfires
Since Saturday, the fire spread by almost 24,000 acres and has now consumed 46,000 acres in Lake, Yolo and Colusa counties, according to Daniel Berland, spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, or Cal Fire.
Fifty residences and outbuildings have been destroyed and authorities estimate more than 6,000 structures face a direct threat.
Just In - #RockyFire east of Clear Lake is now 46,000 acres & 5% contained. Firefighters have held it south of Hwy 20 & west of Hwy 16.
"The fire is expected to have significant activity and growth," Cal Fire said in its late Saturday advisory. "Current strategic constraints include lack of access to areas of the fire, very hot and dry weather, critical fuels and changing winds. ... In total, all evacuations impact over 12,100 citizens living in over 5,156 residences."
Dozens of cars set ablaze as wildfire jumps California highway
Cal Fire has posted a list of mandatory evacuations, advisories, evacuation centers and road closures on its website.
After four days battling the blaze just east of Lower Lake, a town of 1,300, it is only 5% contained. Almost 2,000 fire personnel, 180 engines, four air tankers and 19 helicopters are participating in the effort.
Still, some Lake County residents carried on as usual amid the precarious conditions.
"We can see the smoke and it appears to be blowing near us but there are no evacuations here that I know of. We are open for business and hoping the wind blows the other way because we have two tournaments tomorrow," Ted Mattila of Buckingham Golf and Country Club in Kelseyville said Saturday.
In all, about 9,000 firefighters worked 21 fires Saturday in California -- from the Frog Fire near the Oregon border, to the Cutca blaze near Mexico. The state's four-year drought has created ideal conditions for wildfires, Cal Fire said.
At least three large fires were contained Saturday, while two smaller fires merged into a larger one, the department said.
One fireman was killed in the line of duty. The U.S. Forest Service confirmed that David Ruhl of Rapid City, South Dakota, died fighting the Frog Fire in Northern California's Modoc National Forest, near Adin. Rescuers found his body Friday morning, the forest service said, adding that the death of the father of two remains under investigation.
In two other fires -- the Willow Fire northeast of North Fork in the Sierra National Forest and the Cabin Fire east of Porterville in the Sequoia National Forest -- authorities reported strides.
The Willow Fire is 60% contained, and firefighters made "good progress" with a controlled-burn operation intended to deprive the blaze of more fuel, the South Central Sierra Interagency Incident Management Team said.
"Air resources will support ground crew as needed (as) soon as smoke conditions clear and allow for safe aerial operations," the team said.
Evacuation orders remain in effect for the blaze that has already consumed more than 5,600 acres.
The Cabin Fire, which has burned 2,600 acres since mid-July, remained relatively calm overnight, but it was only 2% contained, according to a news release from the Sequoia National Forest.
"If the weather conditions are favorable today, firefighters may begin strategic firing operation near Pecks (Canyon) to remove unburned fuels between the fire line and the main fire in the afternoon," the statement said.
Neither the Willow nor the Cabin fires have destroyed any structures, but six people have been injured in the Willow Fire.
Thousands of lightning strikes since Thursday have ignited hundreds of small wildfires, but the thunderstorms brought little rain, authorities said, and the smaller fires became part of larger fires.
1 firefighter dies as thousands battle California wildfires
Gov. Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency Friday to help gather additional resources.
The fires range in size. The White Fire in Santa Barbara County is about 50 acres, the deadly Frog Fire has consumed at least 3,000 acres since it was spotted Thursday and the recently snuffed-out Lake Fire in San Bernandino County burned more than 31,000 acres before it was contained.
Cal Fire says most of the fires are more than 60% contained. However, the land damage has been substantial in some cases. Fires in Southern California's San Bernardino County and northern California's Alpine county have incinerated nearly 50,000 acres.
California's record-setting drought, entering its fourth year, has "turned much of the state into a tinderbox," Gov. Brown said.
Temperatures in Sacramento and other areas of northern California, where many of the fires are located, have topped 100 degrees recently.
Under Construction
There's no throwing shade here, he owned it. Well done sir.
Let's Talk About It
I used to beat people up. Truthfully, I used to beat people up a lot. Many of you readers probably think I have been Mr. Goody Two-Shoes my whole life, but honestly, I was a bully growing up. In elementary and middle school, I threw kids against the wall. I rubbed their heads in the dirt at recess. I bit them. I even knocked teeth out.
I had a lot of anger that I didn't know what to do with. Thankfully, I was saved by my faith when I was 14 years old, and was able to start living for others instead of just myself. But if you've ever been at the bottom of a pile with me, you know that I still have a bit of that bully deep down inside—just ask DeMarcus Ware—and I work hard to keep it there.
As NFL players, we do not play a gentle game. But our hits, our anger, our aggressive behaviors need to be regulated and confined to the field. Recent incidents of domestic violence have forced The League, its fans and the players to take a hard look into our collective conscience. To be honest, many NFL players are reluctant to address such a sensitive issue. How do you fix a problem so big and complex? How do you speak about something so damaging and painful to families?
Domestic violence extends far beyond the spotlight of the NFL. It's not unique to my profession. It's not confined to America. All over the world, right at this moment, men, women and children are taking refuge in anonymous shelters. Many more are suffering silently, without protection. Every day, up to 10,000 Americans are turned away from shelters due to lack of resources.
What can we do to help? All I can do is my small part. And I invite you to help me. I've recently launched the "Why Not You Foundation" where I'll be raising funds and awareness for a number of worthy causes. It's a place where I plan to give back, and for my first initiative, I want us to Pass the Peace to support victims of domestic violence. The idea behind Pass the Peace is simple: It's a promise. I'm sharing my love for you. I want to take care of you. I am here for you.
To be honest, many NFL players are reluctant to address such a sensitive issue. How do you fix a problem so big and complex?
Maybe in our cynical world, this seems too ambitious, or even naive. Maybe this issue is too taboo, too toxic. I've tended to avoid controversial topics throughout my career, but in my first piece for The Players' Tribune, I wanted to be open and address something that's important, timely and relevant. I've been silent on the issue for too long, falling back on the "I can't speak to someone else's personal life" excuse. But victims need physical, emotional and financial support and care, and the resources to get away from their abusers. Abusers, you need to get help—you can change.
When you Pass the Peace to a friend, I ask that you make a $2 donation or more to The National Domestic Violence Hotline. It couldn't be easier. Simply text WNYPassThePeace to 41444 to make your contribution. For more information, please visit www.whynotyoufoundation.com.
How many of you reading right now knew that October is Domestic Violence Awareness month? I certainly didn't. I had to Google it. And that's part of why I felt so inspired to do my part. This initiative, this story, is about acknowledging something difficult, something we'd rather not see. When I look back at beating kids up on the playground, I don't like that image. But I moved past that place in my life, and I'm proud of the man I am now.
This issue is much bigger than NFL suspensions. Domestic violence isn't going to disappear tomorrow or the next day. But the more that we choose not to talk about it, the more we shy away from the issue, the more we lose.
I can't fix the world. I can't fix the NFL. I can't change the guys around me. The only person I can change is the one in the mirror. I'm not a perfect person by any means. I'm just a recovering bully.

Internet activist group warns Turkish government about censorship
Tuesday, June 7, 2011
ISTANBUL- Daily News with wires
Anonymous, an online activist group consisting of anonymous members from all over the world, has warned the Turkish government of action against it ahead of the implementation of a planned Internet filter.
The ruling Justice and Development Party, or AKP, government plans to implement a filter on Internet browsing on Aug. 22 on the grounds of protecting the youth from "harmful elements on the web." Critics argue that the filter will pave the way for wide-spread censorship.
Anonymous said Tuesday that the government was violating basic human rights and freedoms and that they would "take action against the institutions that apply censorship."
The message from Anonymous reads as follows:
"Merhaba T?rkiye,
?Over the last few years, we have seen how the Turkish government has tightened its grip on the Internet. It has blocked thousands of websites and blogs while abusive legal proceedings against online journalists persist. The government now wants to impose a new filtering system on the 22nd of August that will make it possible to keep records of everyone?s Internet activity.
?Though it remains opaque why and how the system will be put in place. It is clear that the government is taking censorship to the next level.
?These acts are inexcusable. Accessing and participating in the free flow of information is a basic human right. Anonymous will not stand by while the Turkish government violates this right. We will bring our supporters to circumvent censorship and retaliate against organizations imposing censorship.
?Hundreds of thousands of people have protested against Internet censorship but AKP government ignored the voice of the people and violently oppressed the protesters.
?We call on all Internet users worldwide to support freedom of speech by pushing the Turkish government to stop these foolish policies. The free flow of information won?t be stopped. Sharing of knowledge won?t be stopped. It is time to fight for our rights and stand up for what we believe in.
?We are Anonymous.
?We are Legion.
?We do not Forgive.
?We do not Forget.
?Expect us.?
बुरांश खिले पहाड़ जंगल दहक रहा दावानल कि पक रही है मिट्टी भूमिगत आग अब फोड़ देगी जमीन जलकर खाक होगी लुटेरों की यह नकली दुनिया पलाश विश्वास बुरांश खिले पहाड़ जंगल कि पलाश खिले पहाड़ जंगल कि जंगल में हो मंगल कि जारी रहे संसदीय दंगल दहक रहा दावानल कि पक रही है मिट्टी भूमिगत आग अब फोड़ देगी जमीन जलकर खाक होगी लुटेरों की यह नकली दुनिया

at first I thought it was a photo!!!!
Beautiful work! Love the lighting.
OHH MAN!! dat girl looks so hot xD you are very talented!! i loove this kind oof drawings
this is amazing
Love it to death!
This is stunning! I love the richness of the color and the attention to detail of the figures is such an asset to the piece. The composition is very nicely balanced to highlight the work. You can really feel the emotion and personality of the characters. It gives me pause and has me imagining an entire scene in my mind around just what is conveyed in the image. I tend to browse a lot, so it's not just any picture that makes me stop to admire it enough to want to add it to my favorites so I can share it with others. This is certainly one of those pieces for me. You should feel very proud of what you have accomplished with this. Nicely done.
Great work
wonderful work
so intriguing
so intriguing
beautiful face
This is really good. Serious jealousy issues with your skill right now. My only suggestions would be that the horns look like they were stuck on after the fact. Maybe wrap the hair over the base to make them look a little more integrated. and the wing looks a little stiff, not sure what could be done about that. And maybe just i touch of reflected light on the girl in front. not enough to take the focus off empusa but it might add a little more energy to the scene.
Absolutley Awsome
wow, this - by far - is among the best ones I've seen in a while!

Fantastic, superb work
awesome! did you used any reference?
I'm sorry that I missed this conversation I did indeed use reference. I hired a model and shot the poses based on the client approved sketch.
I don't always use reference, there are obviously some things that I can't shoot reference for. I also don't attempt to copy the reference directly. I use the information in the photos to get a somewhat realistic look.
I hope that clears it up a bit

iPhone & iPod Touch Skins
Eclipseby Lisa Argyropoulos
Skins are thin, easy-to-remove, vinyl decals for customizing your device. Skins are made from a patented material that eliminates air bubbles and wrinkles for easy application.
A Bokeh image that I have captured of a sparkly glitter...please note that it is a macro photo of this substance and the product will NOT have such a texture that can be touched as such. Bokeh basically means to "blur" or "haze" and in my image of "Eclipse" this is the result. Bokeh is a popular photographic style.

Fourth man charged in fatal Downey home invasion robbery
A fourth person was charged last week with killing a Downey real estate agent in a home invasion robbery in January, authorities said.
Michael Harrod, a 24-year-old from Anaheim, pleaded not guilty Feb. 2 to murder, home invasion robbery and first-degree burglary with the person present, according to the Los Angeles County district attorney's office. Harrod is a white man, according to online sheriff's department records.
Three other men have also been charged in the crime.
Harrod, who is related to a longtime friend of the victim, Jim Rudometkin, 59, had known him "for some period of time," said Downey Police Sgt. Kevin McCaster.
Harrod was aware that Rudometkin was in the process of moving from his childhood home into an apartment, McCaster said.
"They believed him to be of some wealth, and possibly an easy target since he wouldn't be there," McCaster said.
Investigators believe Harrod ...

CT Scan of the Abdomen
(Abdominal CT)
DefinitionA CT scan is a type of x-ray. It uses a computer to make pictures of the inside of the body. In this case, images of the abdomen are taken.
|CT Scan at Kidneys
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Reasons for TestA CT scan is done to study the organs and tissue in your abdomen. Your doctor will look for signs of:
- Injury
- Tumors
- Infections
- Other diseases
- Abdominal pain
- Bowel changes
- Blood in urine or stool
- Evidence of intestinal blockage.
- Urinary difficulties
- Jaundice (yellow skin)
- Weight loss
- Unexplained fever
- Abdominal injury
- Fluid buildup in the abdomen
Possible ComplicationsSometimes a chemical called contrast is used to help improve the pictures. Complications with contrast are rare but some can have an allergic reaction or kidney problems . A CT scan does use radiation. You and your doctor will weigh the harms and benefits of this test. A CT scan may not be advised if you are pregnant.Be sure to discuss these risks with your doctor before the test.
What to Expect
Prior to TestYour doctor may tell you to:
- Avoid eating or drinking anything for 4 hours before the test if contrast will be used.
- Remove any metal objects, such as jewelry, hearing aids, or dentures..
Description of the TestSometimes contrast is necessary. It helps make certain organs and tissue easier to see in pictures. It is often given by mouth in a drink. Other times, it will be injected into a vein. Occasionally, it is delivered by an enema.You will be positioned on a special moving table. The table will move slowly through the CT scanner. You will need to stay still during the entire test. As the scanner takes pictures, you will hear humming and clicking. The technician will ask you to hold your breath at certain points. This will help get a clear picture. You will be able to talk to the technician with an intercom.
After TestIf you had contrast, you may be told to drink extra fluid. This will flush the contrast from your body.
How Long Will It Take?About 30 minutes
Will It Hurt?You may feel flushed if you received contrast. You may notice a salty or metallic taste in your mouth. You may also feel nauseated.
ResultsThe CT images will be sent to a radiologist who will analyze them. Your doctor will receive the results and discuss them with you.

While the car is idling the whole car is shaking, i can feel it through the floor, the seat, everything. Its starting to get quite uncomfortable after a few mins of sitting in it. The car shakes a little as i get to 1000 revs. Just over 1200 revs and the shakes stop. But return when just idling again. Its been on a diagnostics machine and it cannot find any problems.

If you have any interest in the medicinal value of plants, if you enjoy scenic drives in the mountains, if you like to meet kind people then you will enjoy this tour. Hines was our fearless driver and Winston was our wonderful tour guide.
Winston knows Croydon Plantation very well and did an excellent job of including everyone in the group. Hines did not run over any goats and is the sweetest man! You also get to eat many delicious things!
Reviewed by: Kathleen R, December 2014
The trip to Croydon Plantation was very good. Our guide, Alicia, was very knowledgeable as well as a delightful person to converse with. Our driver, Keith was very informative about the Montego Bay area and Jamaican life in general. One suggestion, give Keith a microphone so passengers in the back of the bus won't miss any of his interesting and humorous commentary. The drive to and from the plantation was equally worth the trip and it allowed us to see Jamaican life outside the All-Inclusive.

Designer: Richard Schultz
Richard Schultz joined Knoll Associates in 1951 to work with Harry Bertoia, after studying at Iowa State University and the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. Schultz's work with Knoll took a serendipitous turn when Florence Knoll asked him to design durable, attractive outdoor furniture for her Florida home. The result was the "Leisure Collection" (now sold as the "1966 Collection") which became an instant classic. In addition to his work for Knoll, he designed an office system for Stow/Davis. He also taught basic design at the Philadelphia College of Art and had a one-man show of his sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
In 1992, Richard Schultz began his own furniture manufacturing and design company, where he and his son, Peter, have built an impressive line of outdoor furniture collections including Topiary, Swell, and Mateo. In 2012, Knoll and Richard Schultz reunited to distribute these widely acclaimed and sought after collections to the residential market.View other products by Richard Schultz
Manufacturer: Richard Schultz Collection
The Richard Schultz Collection offers a comprehensive collection of durable, modern, and iconic outdoor furniture. The rich history of Richard Schultz began with Richard Schultz's long involvement in modern furniture design, sculpture and art. He worked with Harry Bertoia during the development of Bertoia's iconic collection of wire chairs for Knoll. Schultz later designed the Petal Collection to accompany the Bertoia's Diamond Chair. Some years later, Florence Knoll specifically asked Schultz to create a collection of furniture that could withstand the outdoors. The result was the "Leisure Collection" (now sold as the "1966 Collection") which became an instant classic.
In 1992, Richard Schultz began his own furniture manufacturing and design company. The entire collection, featuring outdoor chairs, lounges, tables and accessories, relates to the designer's deep interest in sculptural form and its relation to nature and man. Outdoor furniture must be comfortable and durable for use in outdoor and garden settings. And, balanced with that, designs are kept either complementary or supplementary to their natural surroundings, providing an aesthetic of luxuriant creativity, guided by materials and form.
For the past 20 years, Schultz and his son, Peter, have been able to build an impressive line of outdoor furniture collections including Topiary, Swell, and Mateo. In 2012, Knoll and Richard Schultz reunited to distribute these widely acclaimed and sought after collections to the residential market.

Article: Three-Port Versus Four-Port Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Since the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy was reported, the four-trocar laparoscope has become the golden standard procedure. Some surgeons, however, thought that the three-port technique may be safe, effective, and economic. Our meta-analysis compared the three-port technique to the four-port technique. We searched the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database. Quality assessment and data extraction were done by two reviewers independently. The statistical analysis was performed by RevMan4.2.10 software. A total of five publications comprising 591 patients met the inclusion criteria. The result showed that three-port technique could not reduce the analgesia requirements: the sample mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were -0.28 (-0.66, 0.10). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of operating time [weighted mean difference (WMD) = 2.08, 95% CI (-3.63, 7.79)], success rate [odds ratio (OR) = 0.99,95% CI (0.31, 3.12)], or postoperative hospital stay [OR = -0.52,95% CI (-1.22, 0.17)]. The current evidence showed that the two groups had similar operating times, success rates, analgesia requirements, and postoperative hospital stays. The methodological qualities of studies are not high, so more high-quality studies are needed for further analysis.

ABSTRACT: Several studies have suggested that proton pump inhibitors are efficacious in preventing rebleeding when administered immediately after endoscopic treatments. However, there are limited clinical outcome data on the use of intravenous pantoprazole. To evaluate the efficacy of intravenous pantoprazole after successful endoscopic treatment for peptic ulcer bleeding using evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE and several Chinese databases up to July 2008 were searched. RCTs that compared the relative effectiveness of intravenous pantoprazole with placebo, H2 receptor antagonist or other agents for patients with peptic ulcer bleeding who were pretreated with successful endoscopic therapies were retrieved. Five RCTs comprising a total of 821 participants were included in the final meta-analysis. Overall, there were significant differences in ulcer rebleeding (RR 0.31; 95% CI 0.18 to 0.53; pooled rates were 4.7% for pantoprazole and 15.0% for control), surgical intervention (RR 0.28, 95% CI 0.09 to 0.83; pooled rates were 1.4% in pantoprazole group versus 6.5% in control) and total length of hospital stay (weighted mean difference -1.53; 95% CI -1.91 to -1.16), but not on mortality (RR 0.72, 95% CI 0.29 to 1.81; pooled mortality rates were 1.9% for pantoprazole versus 2.8% for control) and blood transfusion requirements (weighted mean difference -0.53; 95% CI for random effects -1.04 to -0.02) when compared with control treatments. A series of subgroup analyses supported the results from the main analysis. Intravenous administration of pantoprazole after endoscopic therapy for peptic ulcer bleeding reduces rates of ulcer rebleeding, surgical intervention and overall duration of hospital stay, but not mortality and blood transfusion requirements compared with placebo, H2 receptor antagonist or somatostatin.

ABSTRACT: This study focuses on probiotics in patients with severe acute pancreatitis. It assesses whether enteral feeding with probiotics use reduces infected necrosis and death in severe acute pancreatitis. We searched the Cochrane Library, Medline, Embase, and Chinese Biomedicine Database. Quality assessment and data extraction were done by two reviewers independently. The statistical analysis was performed by RevMan4.2.10 software. The result was expressed with odds ratio (OR) for the categorical variable. Four studies were included. The result showed that using probiotics could not reduce the risk of infection pancreatic necrosis (OR = 0.56, 95% CI [0.13, 2.35]). There is no significant difference between the two groups in mortality (OR = 0.83, 95% CI [0.14, 4.83]), the mean duration of hospital (WMD = -1.20, 95% CI [-13.13, 10.92]) and the required operation (OR = 0.59, 95% CI [0.11, 3.07]). The present study showed the enteral feeding with probiotic could not reduce the infected necrosis and mortality. Future large-scale, high-quality, placebo-controlled, double-blind trials are needed.
