TFP: Surprise! (Chapter IIX: MIA...)Raph and Rachet gaped at the readings being displayed. The second set of brain waves was identical to a single autobots... Optimus Prime."That isn't possible... is it, Rachet?" Raph asked.Rachet blinked, "W-well... we are in a different universe entirely. So it is possible, but I'm not understanding-how.""Well Optimus's set doesn't seem to actually be conscious... its more like-an echo," commented Raph."Still, this just flew beyond my understanding. Is there any way to tell how?" Rachet picked up Lauren's laptop, "Lauren recieved all the information off of this device, could it-?"Raph accepted the laptop, and opened it up, "Password? Uh-lets try 'Optimus Prime'.""Nope," muttered Rachet."Wait, if she has Optimus's brainwaves in her skull, maybe she has his password too. Lets try 'Iacon-Relic03'," mused Raph.Rachet eyed him, "How would you know Optimus's password, Raphael?"Raph gulped, "Uh-well-I'll explain later, I'm in. It looks like she has the majority of her-no-wait, look,
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter VII: Latency...)Jack watched Lauren's heart rate fluctuate over and over again. Beneath her her eyelids her eyes from from direction to direction. Her temperature was 103.17, and continued to vary.Miko sighed, "This is so boring.""Miko! Jack growled, "Lauren won't wake up because Knockout and Breakdown attacked her! We've never been hurt, the Autobots have always come through, can you imagine what she was feeling?!""Hungry?" asked Miko."Why would she be--?!"Miko stared at him, "I meant-are you hungry, Jack?""Oh... considering we haven't eaten anything since last night and here it is three?" Jack nodded, "Yeah, but seriously, Miko she must have been-""Mega... tronus."Jack looked at Lauren, "There she goes again... that must be one horrible dream.""Meh," Miko muttered.There was a knock on the door, before Melissa Courage walked in, "Sorry I'm late, kiddos. I'm Mrs. Courage." She set her purse down, and walked over with a pizza, "I spoke on the phone... to one of you..."Jack stood, "Yeah, I'm
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter VI: Within...)Lauren had run to the closest gas station, people were running towards the explosion, and like a coward, Lauren had just run away. She walked into the bathroom, set her back pack down, and looked in the mirror. There was a scrape on her lip, a cut at the top of her head, and a thin layer of brick dust coated her from head to toe. Lauren quickly washed her face, doctored her cuts, and tried to dust herself off. It was only 06:34 by the time she had walked out of the gas station, and within that time, strange-looking men had begun blocking all visible paths to blinn. "Scrap! Are those marines?" Lauren ran over, but was stopped by a man in a suit. "Hey!""The college is closed today, ma'am. Your absences will not count against you.""What gives, Mr..." Lauren began."I am Agent Jason Woods," he said, "And Blinn college was bombed early this morning, we are investigating to make sure it was the only one."Suuure... Lauren crossed her arms, "What about the school thats right by it. The high
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter V: What a Knock-Down...)Lauren's left eyebrow twitched twice over, as Miko and Jack leaned in closer to her and Raph's screens, she growled, "So... Raph, do you ever find it annoying when someone is so close to you, you can feel their moist, warm breath on the back of your neck?"Raph paused, looking up, and to her, "Um... I'm used to it.""Right-large family-I remember... Er-and I'm sorry that they aren't here," Lauren whispered.Raph breathed, "Uh-so, remind me what we're looking for?""You are hacking into the government to look for anything out of the ordinary," Lauren said, and Raphs fingers were a blur across his own keyboard. "While I am deleting all the information on the autobots off the internet I can... Miko, if you don't back up-I'll tell Jack that little secret. Jack-don't make me mention the circuit!"They both backed away."Thank you," Lauren said, cheerfully, "So... I guess I should get y'all some food... just let me. Hop-skip-and a jump, thats all I can do. There will still be some fragments,
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter IV: Team Prime...)"Optimus!"Rachet's voice some how drew both Lauren and Optimus out of-whatever it had been. Optimus looked to Rachet, and Lauren held the Matrix shard tightly in her right hand, as though she was afraid to lose it. The storm that Optimus had felt inside of her was gone... some how.Lauren stood in Optimus's hand, "How did this happen? I believed that the autobots were merely a figment of my imagination... not I've seen otherwise. How did you get here-I remember you having a base.""We did, but this seems to be an entirely different world," Rachet muttered."First cybertronian are real and now the theory of multiple realities seems to have merit," Lauren tapped her lip."Yes, after a bit of research, I do believe that this is an entirely different reality," Rachet confirmed.Lauren sighed, "Alright then, have you figured out how?"Rachet shook his head, "And by the Allspark what happened? You seem like you are an entirely different human."Lauren blinked, then looked away with a
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter III: To the eyes...)"And you escaped unscathed?" Optimus asked.Lauren nodded vigorously, "Yeah-yeah-yeah. Megatron must have lost track of him, I mean why didn't he even fly I away-dummy.""Starscream lost his T-cog to a ruthless organization known as-""MECH-Silas is the only known leader-the jerks who butchered Breakdown-I don't like them for trying to take the DING-y-thingy... they're dummies too," Lauren muttered, "Agh! Focus you stupid idiot! If the Autobots are here this is serious, they don't need a stupid shatter-brained human!" she scolded herself.Optimus was silent a moment, when he finally said, "Are you feeling well, Miss Courage?"Lauren laughed in a squeaky tone, "Hee-hee-HEE! He called me Miss Courage!-You need to focus, Lauren.-But its so funny!-Shut up, and listen to me-what ever is happening it is vital that you listen to Optimus... this is important... -Okay, I'll try."I-will have my medic look you over before we... speak," Optimus assured.Lauren beat her head, then laugh
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter II: In disguise...)Lauren's night had been filled with continuous dreams of the cybertronians. From Orion Pax, to Optimus, from Megatron to Unicron. Nightmares, dreams it was all the same. And it wasn't real-it couldn't be, could it? The next morning, Friday, Lauren had gotten ready for school, and was sitting on the couch in her room, pondering the events the day before. She was scared-not of them being real-but of the doctors... what if they heard she was going crazy. Lauren didn't even know what she was diagnosed with! They said something along the lines of DID, but it wasn't. The best they could give her and her mom was 'Lauren is a single case of a heightened mixture of Avoidant, and Multiple personality disorder. Lauren hissed, "I'm not crazy... I can't be... wouldn't I feel crazy? I'm just a little--different, right? Agh-talking to myself isn't helping... maybe I do think there's two of me or somethin'."Luke peeked his head in the door, "You're so crazy, Lauren!"Lauren blushed, sighing, "I am no
TFP: Surprise! (Chapter I: Coincidence?...)After Physics, Lauren had hopped on a bus, and rode over to the local community college. From the student center, she had walked to SPCH, then SPAN, and finally ended that lovely Thursday in August at 14:15 HOURS. She sat in the back of the student center, awaiting her mom to pick her up, and take her home. It had been a busy week thus far, and both college and high school had barely started back up. She opened up her HIST 1301, and in said spare time, she began pouring over the true beginning to the oh so 'wonderful' country of America. As she looked over a words "putting a ding in us" her mind, for some strange reason recalled the Dingus. Agent Fowler requesting help, the first encounter with MECH-Silas... She growled, the snake reminded her of several other people. Finding that she was beginning to have trouble focusing, she put the notes away, and slouched against the brick wall beside the bench where she sat... she brewed the disgust into a good bit of loathing, until she noticed
Transformers Prime: Surprise! (Prologue: Physics)The poor Lauren's jaw dropped upon seeing the second page of problems for the second day in a row. They usually only recieved one, plus their daily notes courtesy of the lovely, heavy, four inch Physics Textbook. Clearly she was not the only student completely insulted by the busy work. Not that she was even good at the subject to begin with. It wasn't even a Theoretical Physics class-this was just highschool! So in an attempt to toss a red-herring into the complicated discussion of theoretical physics, she began by mentioning the basic inertia factor, and how the Professor claimed that he would demonstrate inertia with a pail of water... the fact is he had promised that last semester! She still hadn't been able to put her plan of instead dumping the water onto his head in motion...There, her mind once again trail off. The girl had an uncanny knock for getting lost in her favorite TV show, Transformers: Prime. What bothered her most is that people acted like they had no idea what it w

National Day of Prayer 2016
in Christianity
The 65th annual National Day of Prayer, May 5, 2016, will have profound significance for our country. It is an unprecedented opportunity to see the Lord's healing and renewing power made manifest as we call on citizens to humbly come before His throne.
The theme for 2016 is Wake Up America, emphasizing the need for individuals, corporately and individually, to return to the God of our Fathers in reverence for His Holy Name. To further highlight this theme, they've chosen Isaiah 58:1a as the Scripture for this year: "Shout it aloud, do not hold back. Raise your voice like a trumpet."

National Day of Prayer for the Church in America
in Christianity
The power of prayer can change the course of a nation but God has to have people in place like Daniel and Esther that will stand in the gap for a nation. The remedy for national change is this: "IF MY PEOPLE who are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land." Christians along with non-Christians believe that choosing a new political leader will save our nation. God has a better idea and it's called, "The Church" in an attitude of humility and submission to him. Church, let us pray... for the Church.
What are our "wicked ways":
-rebellion against God
-divorce (covenant breakers)
-sexual immorality
-witchcraft (manipulation)
-lying one to another
-false accusations
-alliances with evil
-and such like (as the apostle Paul declared)

Still waiting for an answer to my questions. Mainly, what harm would have surely come to the group if these people were not brutally killed?<quoted text>A different opinion on what is justice and it involves killing, is the very definition of the subject (murder)!
Murder is an unjust killing. If we differ on what is a just killing, then we differ on what is murder. Do I need to explain this any more? It is just English.
You feel it is just to kill someone due to their religious beliefs, I do not. Simply put, I think it is murder, you do not.
Consequences can mean many things. When you decide to kill someone for worshipping a calf, American justice would call it murder.
Evidently you have a different and double standard for Moses. I do not. I hold the same standards for him as I would anyone.
It is a question of what is moral.
Now you claim the group would have been harmed somehow due to some worshiping a calf. Please tell us how? And please do not assume I know what is in the mind of yourself. We have extremely different thoughts. For example, I see killing someone due to worshiping a golden calf, murder. You do not.
America was not founded upon values like this. In fact, they are polar opposites. America has a fundamentally different opinion of what constitutes a just killing(murder).

Whatever. Typically, you've "gleaned" the aspersions which you wish to opine. Asserting a belief as a fact, especially when it contains no shred of hard (or even circumstantial) evidence, is nothing short of a lie.

Yes, Q has the same political philosophy as the fundies here.
You need not use the word "liar" to be accusing someone of lying.
Yes, the issue you keep harming on is unimportant. It should have been ignored, but you insisted on focusing on it over all other issues.
#114400 Oct 11, 2013
First of all let me clarify for you for the last time,No one was brutally killed.
They received just punishment for their disobedience.
They had agreed to the terms of the covenant.
They disobeyed the temms of the covenant.
They had the opportunity to repent. They did not.
Therefore , the penalty for disobedience was exacted.
If you notice , those who repented were not punished.
God had made it clear that worshipping graven images would lead them away from worshipping the true God and would be a snare on to them.
Plain and simple.
You , in your state of unbelief , are not able to accept the just punishment meted out to those who disobeyed.
The fact is that they intentionally disobeyed and broke the covenant to which they had agreed and moreover , when given the opportunity to repent , refused to do so.
#114401 Oct 11, 2013
Again you err . one of your heroes SP confessed to having used multiple monikers on the harlan forum.
There has been a pattern to the postings on this thread that certainly points to someone changing monikers within minutes of posting among other evidence that I have provided.
What can be considered a lie was your assertion that I had stated that the finding of my dog was a miracle . I never made that claim and you nevedr provided evidence to support that claim.
Needless to say , I addressed it once or maybe twice and then dismissed it for what it was NON SENSE.
You guys are the ones that won't let go of the moniker issue.
You keep beating a dead horse even after I have declared it dead.
Anyhow , I get the distinct impression that Witchinthewoods assetion that"We are here to annoy " is accurate and to the point.
If I may add ...Possibly you are also here to agitate and create dissension and unrest.

You are simply repeating yourself and not speaking to my points. I spoke to yours but you cannot return intellectual debate.
Having your brother slash you with a sword is brutal in my world. Not sure what world you live in, but punishment need not be death.
Killing someone for worshiping a god, false or not, agreement of consequences or not, is unjust in my opinion.
I see you supplied no evidence of the command by Moses or god. And I note you do not even show he said the consequences would be capital punishment. What normal person would expect such an extreme punishment?

I see you have run from the discussion of Moses having murdered three thousand people.
Very telling of the denial needed to have faith.

Drop the issue already.. I never called anyone a liar.
There is a difference .,, I may have called you devious and conniving.
I am not qualified , as you seem to be , to comment on Q's philosophy . I am sure he caN SPEAK FOR HIMSELF.
There are areas where we differ.
He likes to ride his motorcycle ,, I like to cruise in one of my Limborghinis , he likes to take pictures , I like to buy expensive paintings,,, Picassos , Rembrandts and Van Ghos.
He likes AK 47's . I like grenade launchers.
he likes women I like..........women too.

Kind of splitting hairs with that cross thing. Graven images are symbols.

Let me not address your farcical points , let me address your nosensical arguments.
You guys claim not to believe in God.
You claim there is no God
You guys claim that the bible is composed of fables invented by Goatherders.
Therefore ,according to your beliefs, there is no God and Moses never existed.
On the other hand , you accuse those whom you claim did not and do nort exist ,of having committed murder and mayhem.
To me , that clearly indicates that you are not in possesion of your mental faculties.
It further confirms that you are here to annoy and agitate.
I have my beliefs , you have your nonsensical arguments.
Since you neither believe in God or the Bible ,give me a legitimate answer as to why I should address your points and why you persist in debating that which you claim does not exist and is ,in your view, not real.

So we are going back to this diversion?
I will answer your questions because I am not a chicken shit like yourself.
I do not believe your god killed anyone, and I doubt this Moses existed as claimed. But I do not doubt their is a bit of truth in the exaggerated tale. This truth is likely the part where the leader kills the people who do not stick with the new god and keep worshiping the old god.
What really bothers me is that you Christians think this was moral to do. So no matter if it happened or not, the ugly part is, billions think it was moral to kill for how one worships.
Part of my main point on this thread is to show how this god is unlikely because the story shows to be made of man, not a moral god. This story illustrates this point, well at least to those who have no blinders on to religion. You have blinders on. You cannot see what is moral and what is not.
What you seem to not realize is that everyone who ever killed for their supposed god is thinking just as you are, and that includes the 9/11 hijackers. They feel it was a just killing.

Hey Curious, if you are going to call my points farcical, at least explain why. Or are you just to busy worrying about someone using a different name?

So the god of the bible says he has no name, and he claims to be who he is. The Jewish word for this situation is Yahweh. It is not a name, but people did call the god this.
But what I am curious about is, if god claimed no name, then why would one of his top ten commandments be, do not take the lords name in vain?
Seems to me it is a mistake on the part of the man they call Moses,(if that is his real name).
Point being, the god is man made.

These are all just killings because god makes the rules. Now close that mind up and just obey the rules god made. If his holy ghost tells you to kill, then it is a just killing. No need to think about it with that brain of yours. Just do it. If your religious leader tells you the god spoke to him on a mountain and then tells you to kill your kids for having a graven image, just do it.
And lets have a book put in public schools that teach this lesson.

I beeline that bible study should be aloud. If they aren't bothering anyone then I don't see a problem. Most bible study groups, like ours, it's held after school. Not during.

Well that's nice but I really would suggest you would do much better attending English class with a remedial spelling class tossed in as that will serve you better after graduation when you have to fill out the paper work......

Vlad the impaler was a christian. He was cruel and a murderer like Yahweh is in the bible. If you fart when bowing down to Yahweh then you will have a sword shoved up your kazoo and fed to starving dogs.

Welcome to UUFEC Religious Exploration
- Welcome Lisa Farley, UUFEC Director of Religious Exploration
Lisa Farley, M.Ed. has returned to UUFEC to once again serve as the Director of Religious Exploration. Lisa lived in Niceville FL from 2004-2008 and during that time was a classroom RE teacher and DRE. Four moves, two states, and one country later, she and her family are excited to return and put down roots in Niceville and this wonderful UUFEC community.
As a parent and educator, Lisa has an understanding of the unique challenges that face our children today. She strives to help parents create a balance and allow children a joyful place to be creative, ask questions, and explore their passions. Lisa looks forward to helping the fellowship continue to build a strong and vibrant program for our children and youth. As one of our common RE chalice lightings states, may all our children be "of the open mind, the loving heart, and the helping hands."
Hello RE families,
Last week our RE program had a Passover seder led by Amy. Children learned the history and traditions around the Jewish holiday. Want to know more? Check out the following site: http://www.chabad.org/holidays/passover/pesach_cdo/aid/871715/jewish/What-Is-Passover.htm
Our youth program has also been growing! The last few weeks we have had larger groups led by Jennifer Conroy. The increased attendance is very exciting!
Weekly Classes and Upcoming Events
- Sunday, May 1, 2016
This Sunday we will be studying bugs with Odin Toness. This is a special event in our RE Web of Life unit. Odin's passion for bugs embodies our third UU principle around the continued quest for knowledge (freedom to learn together) and our 7h principle caring for planet earth. We are very fortunate to have Odin with us this week! Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and play clothes.
- Sunday, May 8th, 2016
Stephanie and I will be leading a study of Beatrix Potter. As part of our WEB OF LIFE unit, we will enjoy animals, just like Beatrix Potter did. This lesson will promote the interdependent web of all existence (which we are a part of) and celebrate the mystery and wonder of literature.
- Sunday, May 22, 2016
This will be CELEBRATION SUNDAY. We will celebrate our children making significant life milestones and also honor our volunteers in the RE program.
- Sunday, May 29, 2016
This begins our Summer Sundays program. We are asking all families to consider volunteering one Sunday in the summer to share a game, talent, story, etc with our amazing children.
- July 5th – 8th

What happens if Jesse Ryder misses out? We got our answer last night from Wellington's Firebirds, and it wasn't pretty.
Flying along after Ryder-inspired Plunket Shield and Twenty20 victories, the home batsmen were spooked under the Westpac Stadium lights when their opener lasted just four deliveries, caught at cover off the impressive Mitchell McClenaghan (3-18).
The rest could cobble together only 116, which Auckland's Aces knocked off with five wickets and 17 balls to spare in an impressive start to their HRV Cup defence.
Ryder dragged a handful of punters through the gates on a chilly night. But the intrigue was around how his team-mates would cope if he fell.
The dry pitch offered turn, and between Auckland's two decent left-arm quicks and a flurry of spin, the Firebirds had their wings clipped. The jury remains out on the batting, with Michael Papps and Michael Pollard missing out again and Black Caps contender Luke Ronchi continuing his worrying early- season form.
Captain Grant Elliott, stumped for six off Bruce Martin, said 140 would have been competitive after being sent in.
"It was an inability to adapt to that wicket early on and rein it in," he said. But Elliott denied Ryder's dismissal was a catalyst for their collapse to 60-7.
"Jesse's obviously a great player but we've got a lot of good players in our team. It's handy when he's scoring runs but I don't think it's a one-man team. Everybody's got the ability to step up.
"The team showed a bit of fight throughout and that's promising signs. We've got to search for that consistency now. We always talk about it with our team being hot and cold."
Luke Woodcock was one batsman given an excuse. He had reason to look incredulous when given out lbw by umpire Barry Frost to one he edged to backward point. Frost must have cringed when he saw the replay but Woodcock still had to trudge off. Still, Wellington were well in the mire by then.
Aussie import Cameron Borgas, who with Shaun Tait flies home after their two-game cameo, hit a breezy 50 off 43 balls as the carnage unfolded at the other end, while debutant Scott Kuggeleijn swung hard.
In the chase, Lou Vincent led the way, the former test opener clipping 45 off 46 balls. He and Brad Hodge (22), Auckland's one-game import, added 65 off eight overs for the first wicket to seize control.
Tait went for 14 off his first over against Vincent, his former team-mate at Zimbabwe's Mid-West Rhinos. The speedster got some revenge, bowling Vincent with his penultimate delivery to end with 2-33, but it was too late. Tait and Borgas have proven handy buys, but last night they needed support.
Woodcock (2-28) also bowled well and Andy McKay was sharp and accurate, but it required a monumental effort with the ball to defend that total.
The Firebirds head to Rangiora for a Plunket Shield match against Canterbury starting on Monday.

Dear Colleagues,
I'm writing to let you know that I'll be stepping down as provost at the end of this academic year.
Being part of the transformation of this university from a very good urban school to a nationally recognized metropolitan research university has been a joy and an honor. Watching how you have worked and dreamed and tirelessly pushed to make this happen has left me awed and humbled. Seeing Dr. Ramsey's leadership shining, unbending, visionary and strong continues to be inspiring and I have learned so much from him. And working with our students has to be the most hopeful experience anyone could have. My senior staff and support staff are simply the best, and so much that is good is because of them. So many on our boards and in our community support this university, and much of what we as a university have become thrives from their attention and support.
So, I know there will be questions about why, and what and who next, but the simplest response is that after 13 years it's time for me and for the university for change and just as each of us sits on the shoulders of those who have gone before, I know that this university is on such a trajectory that somebody great will want to be the next provost.
A heartfelt "thank you" to all of you. My plan is to finish out the academic year, take a year's administrative leave and then figure out what next. I am lucky to have a tenured faculty position here and hope I have colleagues who will want me back. This is a wonderful university and I have loved it for the nearly 30 years that I've been here. I will continue to do that.

The Bluff Coastguard has finalised the design of its $900,000 "dreamboat" - a 13-metre-long, jet-powered vessel which will be built for the demands of Foveaux Strait.
Unit president Andy Johnson said it had been planning a new boat since 2008 and would now start looking for partners to help build it.
Rescue operations near Bluff in the past year, including the sinking of the Easy Rider in March, when eight people died, had highlighted the need for a new boat, he said.
"During the last few major rescues, including the Easy Rider rescue, the coastguard boats have been the smallest out there."
NZAS Rescue, the current Bluff coastguard boat, did not have the range or capability needed to patrol Foveaux Strait and the seas around Stewart Island, he said.
During the Easy Rider operation, Mr Johnson said, the coastguard used a commercial fishing boat as the scene command because NZAS Rescue was too small.
At 30 years old, it is approaching the end of its service life.
It had given great service since it joined the coastguard in 2008, but at 8.5m long, it was not able to cope with the roughest conditions Foveaux Strait could produce, Mr Johnson said.
It could not hold all the equipment the coastguard might need on a rescue and did not have the range needed to cover the area in Bluff's charge.
"There's a need for us to have a vessel which can operate to the extremes of our area," Mr Johnson said. "The safety of our crew is our first priority . . . we don't get a lot of work but when we do it's a major incident."
The new boat will be 13m long, have twin 400-500 horsepower jet motors, space for 16 people and their equipment, and the deck will be large enough for a helicopter to lower people or equipment onto and pick up safely.
It would hold enough fuel to easily circumnavigate Stewart Island, Mr Johnson said.
The design was based on the Sumner Coastguard's modern boat. Twin jet engines made the boat more flexible and manoeuvrable than a standard outboard-motor design. It made it easier to come in close to shore and was easier to train people to use, Mr Johnson said.
Coastguard Southern Region hopes the Bluff boat will become the standard design for new rescue vessels.
The unit hoped it would be built in Southland, Mr Johnson said.
"If we're going to spend that kind of money, we'd like to see it stay in the region."
Fortunately the region was well-blessed with boat builders, he said.
The plan is to have it in operation in two years.
"We're trying to keep [the cost] under $1 million," he said.
"We haven't approached any funders, we're still in the initial phases. We're getting costings from boat builders. We have to find suitable people that can assist us in getting the project underway."

We take a look at 10 instances when countries prohibited hip-hop artists from touching down on their soil.
Tyler The Creator recently made headlines because he was banned from going to Australia and the UK, due to his controversial lyrics. Apparently lyrics from tracks like "VCR," "Blow," "Sarah," "Tron Cat" and "French" have been ruled so obscene, that the UK doesn't want him in their country. The craziest part? This is nothing new.
It's that time of the year again - Valentine's Day! The romantic holiday is upon us and we thought we'd share some of the love in the hip-hop community. Love and hip-hop doesn't have to be synonymous with ratchet behavior and baby daddy / momma drama, although you may be under a different impression if you've ever watched a full episode of VH1's Love & Hip-Hop.
When hip-hop first started, beef was a reflection of the boxer-like competitive drive to establish yourself as the best in the business. Then came the advent of social media. With the world hyper-connected, many feuds now start with slick comments or perceived insults that come in the form of 140-or-less-character shots fired, and non-rappers have found themselves in the mix as well.
It's fair to presume that some hip-hop fans have slept on Asher Roth over the years. Some still associate him only with his 2009 platinum-selling hit "I Love College". If you find yourself in this category, it's time to recognize one of the best lyrical, smooth-flowing rappers in the game.
We'll be seeing a lot of Drake on Charts Don't Lie for the foreseeable future. The rapper dominated the Billboard 200 last week, and after getting bumped from #1 by Imagine Dragons' new album, he's sitting comfy at #2, moving over 150k in his second week. It's a difficult feat for most rappers to move that much their first week out, let alone their second week.
Roy Woods is one of OVO Sound's youngest stars. Born in 1996, with the name Denzel Spencer, Woods came up in Ontario where he thrived as a football player. Ball wasn't life though, not for Woods, and ultimately he turned to music...good thing for us.
No one was more thankful last week than hip-hop fans. On Thanksgiving, we feasted upon Lil Wayne's follow-up to his 2009 classic mixtape, No Ceilings, and the hysteria continued on Black Friday with 34 new tracks from Chris Brown and some much-needed Free Crack from Lil Bibby.
Searching "rap covers" online is like walking into a minefield of acoustic guitars and webcams, leftovers from a war that began with Ben Folds' famous version of Dr.
When you think hip-hop, North Carolina is definitely not the first thing that comes to mind. Nevertheless, hip-hop knows no borders and thanks to the internet, we often don't know the regions of the music we receive either. Back in the mid '90s, the most well-known rapper from NC could very well have been Petey Pablo, but with J.
Shock value was everything for Odd Future when they were getting started. Whether donning ski masks and performing alongside possessed-looking girls on Jimmy Fallon, detailing ridiculously violent sexual encounters, or mixing seemingly-lethal drug cocktails in their music videos, the L.A. crew first got attention for their antics, in addition to their considerable talents.
When Earl Sweatshirt's music was ushered into the eyes of the mainstream, he was at a boarding school on a rural island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Following his 18th birthday, Earl came home to California and got busy recording his debut album Doris, which followed the wild success of his debut mixtape Earl.
We didn't see many debuts this week, but pretty much all the big rap releases of 2015 experienced a considerable push.
Fashion has always been a very big part of the hip hop and it is only getting bigger. Today we are witnessing a number of rappers who treat style as an important part of their career and lifestyle. Not only are they wearing the latest collections, they are also being invited into the fashion world.
Now that July has officially been taken over by the 1017 July Take Over, we've been left with a total of six mixtapes, one collaborative album and one studio album that Gucci Mane has released this year so far. (Trap God 3 is scheduled for September 13th). For comparison's sake, Kanye West and Drake have each released 0 albums so far this year.
Music festivals seem to be more popular than ever these days, causing hundreds of thousands of music enthusiast to splurge on passes, fly out of state or even the country, to camp outdoors and soak in live music alongside strangers in borderline unbearable heat for multiple days in a row.
While there were a couple of debuts this week, the top 2 albums were not able to be unseated. Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly is still sitting comfortably atop the charts, while the Empire soundtrack trails not-so-far behind. Both Action Bronson and Earl Sweatshirt had their opening weeks, with Bronsolino edging out his Odd Future competitor by a good 5 spots on the Billboard 200.
Jay Z made a song dedicated to Tom Ford last year, one of Harlem's hottest rappers wears strictly skinny jeans (A$AP Rocky), and one of the industry's most talked about rappers (Kanye West) is addicted to high-fashion. A little over a decade ago, the genre's finest openly wore baggy clothing, throwback jerseys, and du-rags. It's an understatement to say hip-hop's fashion sense has changed a bit.
Before Wiz Khalifa was a household name, he was on the mixtape grind. Before he was selling out stadiums, he was shelling out free material and making fans all over the internet. A few years later, the guy was everywhere.
Nothing gets us more turnt up than a fire new collaboration between two (or more) dope artists, especially if they haven't made a lot of music together before.
Another week, and the rap game ain't slowing down. TDE proved its youngest member is one of its most prized assets, Tyga finally dropped his mixtape, Mike Will seriously upped the expectations for Ransom 2, and a random Thugger leak managed to crack the Top 5. And that was before the weekend...
Ever since his debut in the middle of the noughties, Charly "Max B" Wingate has been an iconic figure for rap fans, and his prestige has only grown with time. The Harlem-born rapper first made his impression felt on the Diplomats capo Jim Jones' Harlem: Diary of a Summer with his drunken-uncle style hooks, and became an essential member of Jones' Byrd Gang team.
Today, The Weeknd came out of hiding and gave us two brand new tracks-- well, they leaked-- sorry Abel. And, as the tracks will likely be taken down, sorry to anyone who doesn't get to preview the new Weeknd sound. Both tracks, "I Can't Feel My Face" and "In the Night" signal a shift in the pop direction for the strung-out, oversexed, but still painfully lonely, Toronto crooner.
Kanye West isn't really a man of mystery. He lays all of his feelings out, whether that be on wax or on interview. The man has no chill, and thus often lets his emotions get the better of him-- proving just how passionate he is about the things he loves. For a loyal Ye fan, his interviews are like gold, littered with quotable gems and worldly advice.
As someone who's put out quite a bit of music as a solo artist but will always be better known as a label head and mogul, Diddy seems to use his albums as showrooms for his expansive rolodex and impeccable taste.
Since the genre's beginnings, rappers have had tumultuous relations with police. As there has been a renewed focus on police brutality over the past couple of years -- specifically with regard to the black community, it's clear that police relations with rappers, even of the most successful variety, have not improved either.
Rappers have probably never had more influence on American culture than they do now. Drake coins slang words that eventually become recognized by Webster, and Obama addresses Kanye West's presidential candidacy. Jeezy's "My President" became not just a hood anthem, but a nationally imperative hip hop track that is forever preserved alongside Obama's run into presidency.
Christmas is always a big week for album sales, and we saw a few releases dropping December 18th, just in time for last minute gifts. Chris Brown's Royalty certainly seemed to benefit from the strategy, coming in with a big week, despite not earning the usual smash single that precedes Brown's albums.
In his "Essays on the Intellectual Powers of a Man," Thomas Reid made the claim that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. When the philosopher said this in the 1700s, the concept of a compilation album (or an "album" for that matter) was hundreds of years away and yet the words could not apply more appropriately.
There's definitely been an influx of songs dedicated to rappers' favorite brands in the last year or two, but it's been happening forever. Whether it's the designer labels of Gucci, and Louis Vuitton, or casual sportswear like Nike or FILA, emcees have always made a point of shouting out what they wear. So without further ado, check out our list of 20 of the most memorable odes to brand names!
Jay Electronica is a strange cat. The New Orleans-born MC now resides in London, where very few rappers decide to claim home.

Raymor Industries' Recipe for NanoMaterials Success
Less than a year after Raymor Industries, a small Canadian nanomaterials firm, went live with a new high capacity plant for single-walled carbon nanotube, the company has been on a rapid ride. With new investments, new customers and even more capacity lined up for 2007, Raymor executives seem to be proving their view that nano success requires good IP, but so much more.
