Lil B Takes Over the Basketball Court in 'Gotta Make the NBA' Music Video
Lil B takes viewers to a basketball court in the music video for his new track, "Gotta Make the NBA". Arriving on Tuesday, April 8, the four-minute clip shows how serious the rapper is to become a basketball player.
It opens with a message telling fans that he must win 50 out of 100 games to get a chance to play for an official NBA team. The video then gives glimpses at the BasedGod taking over the basketball court and getting injured after failing to do a lay-up. He's also seen rapping the track while talking to a friend on the street.
"Gotta Make the NBA" is going to be featured in B's upcoming basketball-themed mixtape, "Hoop Life".
The mixtape will also feature "F**k KD", a track that finds B dissing Oklahoma City Thunder player Kevin Durant. The two stars' feud began a long time ago, after the athlete called B's music "wack."

Welcome to the best resource for searching for homes, provided by Marilyn Nuber, Keller Williams Realty
A home is not a home because of its room dimensions or the color of the walls. It is about how you feel when you walk through the front door. And the way you can instantly envision your life unfolding there.
This is about more than real estate. It is about your life and your dreams.
Different by design
Keller Williams Realty takes a different approach to real estate, one that is built on personal touches, win-win deals and positive results.
Marilyn Nuber utilizes the latest technologies, market research and business strategies to exceed your expectations. More importantly, we listen and that means we find solutions that are tailored to you.
How we can help
Thanks for starting your real estate search with us. This website is full of information for you whether you are looking to buy or sell.
After you have had the chance to review this information, contact me so we can tell you more about how we can help.
We appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.
I am very proud to share with you that I have been helping customers with their Real Estate needs for more than 27 years.
I have ranked as the "#1 Agent in Ridgewood in Buyer Controlled Sales, Listings Sold, and Overall Production", many times during my career. I have also ranked among the top 1% of Agents nationwide. In addition to this I managed 2 large real estate offices for my former company so I know all sides of the business as well as what it takes to make your real estate experience successful and stress free."
I also have received the coveted "Customer Service Award". Unlike other distinctions in real estate, this one is not based on sales volume, instead; it celebrates a Real Estate Agent's service to his or her clients.
That said, I am much more proud of all the families I have helped over the years than the many awards I have won.

Looking for electronics design automation capabilities? gEDA at http://www.geda.seul.org and Open Collector www.opencollector.org both run freely on Linux.
The gEDA project has produced and continues working on a full GPL'd suite of Electronic Design Automation tools. These tools are used for electrical circuit design, schematic capture, simulation, prototyping, and production. Currently, the gEDA project offers a mature suite of free software applications for electronics design, including schematic capture, attribute management, bill of materials (BOM) generation, netlisting into over 20 netlist formats, analog and digital simulation, and printed circuit board (PCB) layout.
The gEDA project was started because of the lack of free EDA tools for UNIX. The tools are being developed mainly on GNU/Linux machines, but considerable effort is being made to make sure that gEDA runs on other UNIX variants. For a complete list of freely available tools please be sure to visit Open Collector.
Open Collector's Web site says: "Open Collector carries listings and news for free EDA software and circuit designs." Yes, that's right, there are free circuit designs there too. A couple years ago Linux Journal covered gEDA in greater detail, and you can reread that here: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8438
Thanks to Kevin from Oregon, USA who provided this Dot Org of the Week.
Do you know of a Dot Org in the Linux or Open Source worlds that is making a valiant contribution to our Community - without getting paid for it? If so, let us know about it. We want to recognize their efforts. We also want to give you a free t-shirt for your efforts! Send it to: email@example.com

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

The head of the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company has said it has terminated its contract to ship gas to Israel because of violations of contractual obligations, a decision Israel said overshadowed the peace agreement between the two countries.
Mohamed Shoeb, the gas company's top official, said Sunday's decision was not political. "This has nothing to do with anything outside of the commercial relations,'' Shoeb said.
He said Israel had not paid for its gas in four months. Yigal Palmor, Israeli foreign ministry spokesman, denied the claim of not paying.
The 2005 Egypt-Israel gas deal has come under strident criticism from leaders of the popular uprising that toppled Hosni Mubarak, the longtime Egyptian president, last year.
Critics charge that Israel got bargain prices, and Mubarak cronies skimmed millions of dollars off the proceeds.
The sale of gas to Israel, which signed a peace treaty with Egypt in 1979, has always been controversial in the Arab world's most populous country. It was the largest trade deal between the two former foes.
Egyptian militants have blown up the gas pipeline to Israel 14 times since the uprising.
'Bad faith'
On Sunday, Yuval Steinitz, Israel's finance minister, said the unilateral Egyptian announcement was of "great concern'' politically and economically.
"This is a dangerous precedent that overshadows the peace agreements and the peaceful atmosphere between Israel and Egypt,'' he said in a statement.
Israel relies on Egyptian natural gas for 40 per cent of its supplies to produce electricity, the chairman of a government holding firm said on Sunday.
The Israeli side said the decision was "unlawful and in bad faith", accusing the Egyptian side of failing to supply the gas quantities it is owed. The dispute is under international arbitration.
Israel insists it is paying a fair price for the gas.
Al Jazeera's Mike Hanna, reporting from Cairo, said the row would have major political consequences.
"At the base of it, this is a commercial dispute, which has in reality been under international arbitration since September last year," he said.
"But when this agreement was reached in 2005, it was subject to government approvals of Israel and Egypt, many believe under pressure from the government of the US.
"So although this maybe a commercial situation at the moment, this is an issue that will have immense political, international fallout in the days to come."
Mubarak defended
In January, a lawyer defending Mubarak told a Cairo court that there was not a shred of evidence linking the deposed Egyptian president to the controversial gas deal.
Farid al-Deeb said Egypt's spy agency negotiated the deal in line with international norms.
"There isn't an ounce of evidence that Mubarak was involved in the deal to import gas to Israel," costing the state $714m in losses, Deeb told the court.
Among the shareholders of East Mediterranean, the joint Egyptian-Israeli company that carries the gas to Israel, is Hussein Salem, a close friend of Mubarak.
After the many disruptions to the supply of gas over the past year, Israeli ministers have urged the speedy exploitation of recently discovered gas fields off the country's northern coast.
Israeli officials believe that exploitation of two major natural gas fields could compensate for the loss of Egyptian gas.
Israel has already moved to begin exploiting the fields, signing a deal with Cyprus to mark out maritime borders, but it faces challenges from Lebanon, which claims that the gas fields lie in its territorial waters.
Perry also said that the attacks on the pipeline had become a major problem for Israel in the past 14 months, and as a result the country had to purchase gas supplies from other countries as far away as Mexico.
"The price of electricity has gone up 20 per cent and the cost of living continues to go up as well," Perry said.

Jan 18, 2013 Letters Comments Off on Why pay children?
Dear Editor,
I want it; give it to me; buy me it. These seem to be the constant demands of some of today's youth. Some children feel owed or entitled to get their way.
These children demand that the parents pay them to study hard and to do house work. They are motivated solely by personal and selfish greed.
This writer believes that when you pay children to work, you are paying them to be motivated, and you can't buy true motivation, desire and drive; so you shouldn't pay students to be motivated.
While I believe that remittances from overseas Guyanese have helped most local Guyanese, I also believe that those remittances may have made some people dependent, lazy and not want to work.
I know of a 14-year-old girl who sells newspapers every day before she goes to school. Her mother doesn't give her daughter money to sell newspapers because she gives her food and clothes.
A parent's responsibility is to provide the children with food, clothes, education, training and preparations for a successful life.
After giving them all of that, why should a parent pay them study and do house work?
Furthermore, when you pay children to study and to do house work, they'll become ungrateful and want more. A parent must never pay children to work, they will grow accustomed to the money and they'll want the money and not the education; many will end up dropping out of school if any opportunity to make a larger amount comes up.
They may be able to make more money as a teen, but they need that education for a chance at making real life changing money later on in life.
For example, this is exactly how I ended up dropping out of school because I started working and making money. I started liking the money more than school.
In the short term, the money was good for me, but in the long term getting my education would have been much better. If we pay children for doing something that benefits them, I'm afraid many of them will make the same mistake that I did.
In the United States some schools are paying children for getting good grades. The schools argued that it motivates the children to study harder. I believe that in the long term, paying children to study will hurt them.
Studying should be something that a child should want to do and enjoy doing for free; they need to learn to work hard for the things that have a benefit for them later in life.
Not just the children, but all Guyanese should not settle for being sidetracked from the intended goal of doing what is necessary for them to not just get by but to get ahead and truly do well for themselves.
The people need to have long term plans and goals and do the things that can lead to personal prosperity and a more comfortable, rewarding and fulfilling life.
If they receive a pay check for things they do every day for themselves, they may also grow up thinking that the world owes them; which often leads to them to not wanting to work at all for their income.
Make no mistake about it, the development of a "child of entitlement" is exclusively the fault of the parent. It is a parent who teaches children they are entitled to have everything they want.
In closing, I believe such parental ethics are either well-intentioned errors or just simple laziness.
There is nothing better for children than to crash and burn as a result of their own errors in judgment and mistakes, than for them to experience the consequences of their choices that they might learn some valuable lessons early in life.
When you don't pay them to work, you're teaching them to give and not always to receive, to look to the future for the reward, to develop what they need so that later they can have what they want.

Title: FAST GROWING PRIVACY PLANTS IN EL PASO, TEXAS
Answered by: Mike Tomme
QUESTION:Hello, First, I am totally ignorant of plants,trees planting,etc. However, I just moved to El Paso, Tx and find every home is surrounded by these hideous rock walls, which aren't nearly tall enough to serve a real purpose. Not to mention the "yard" is only about 10x10. My neighor and I should just share a patio since we have such a clear view. I need privacy fast! A fast growing hedge,bush,shade tree which doesn't atract birds/insects and that can be planted close to that wall!! Thanks!
First of all, Mr. Smarty Plants only recommends native plants. Fast, growing, El Paso and native plant do not go together. Desert plants grow slowly or grow very quickly when there's moisture available, then go dormant. Secondly, any plant that doesn't attract birds or insects must be so obnoxious that you wouldn't want to be around it either.
I think the solution to your problem is better solved architecturally (raise the wall or put up a fabric screen). Alternatively, you can make friends with your neighbor and take a lesson from the plants you see growing around El Paso - adapt to your environment.

Parallels Desktop 8 updated to support Apple's OS X MavericksPopular desktop virtualization client Parallels released an update to their desktop app for Mac on Wednesday, allowing Apple developers to run beta versions of OS X Mavericks in tandem with older versions of the Mac operating system.
Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac has been updated to version 8.0.18494, giving developers more flexibility to test their apps in Mavericks, without needing to dedicate an entire machine to a potentially buggy beta build of the operating system. Parallels 8 also allows any user to run a virtualization of other popular operating systems such as Googles Chrome, Linux and Windows 8.
While Parallels 8 does not support Mavericks as a new, blank virtual machine (VM), users can alter an existing VM to run the developer versions.
To enable this feature, simply update to the latest build of Parallels before opening an existing VM running OS X. Then, take a snapshot of the VM to prevent any data loss and increase the video memory to 128 MB in that bank. Once the Developer Preview of Mavericks is installed it can be run on the same machine as current builds of Snow Lion or other versions of OS X.
Developers running Parallels 8 for Mac have been attempting to run Mavericks as a VM since the first beta build were released during this years WWDC, but many were unable to do so. The new update to the software brings what the company calls "experimental" support for developer builds of Mavericks, and should resolve some of the issues developers faced in recent weeks.
The last major update to Parallels Desktop 8 came last November, when the software was given expanded support for Microsoft's latest Windows 8 platform. The update also gave users the ability to use Mountain Lion's Dictation feature in Windows applications.
Parallels Desktop 8 launched last September, boasting 30 percent faster 3D graphics, and a 25 percent faster startup for Windows. The release also added support for Apple's MacBook Pro Retina displays, and is optimized to work with OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.

What is a usufruct?
"A usufruct provides to the usufructuary a right of use of property or assets, lifelong or for a specific period, but the usufructuary does not acquire ownership of the relevant property or assets."
Usufruct is often applied as part of estate planning in order to save on Estate duty, as the calculated value of the usufruct qualifies as deduction for Estate duty, should the usufructuary be the surviving spouse. E.g. a woman may bequeath her property to her son provided that her spouse has lifelong usufruct from it.
Obviously this kind of bequest may create problems, as the son is not able to utilise the property for personal use or rent it out as long as his father is still alive. If we talk about agricultural property the problems escalate and the practical administration of the usufruct can result in many a headache.
These issues are, however, of a personal nature and our opinion is that the root of the problem is actually the accountability of Capital Gains Tax which will revert to the owner when the property is eventually sold.
The value of the usufruct when it is created is recovered from the market value of the property in order to determine the bare property value. This calculated value will then represent the base cost of the property when it is eventually sold.
I, TOUGH TINA, bequeath my immovable property to my son, LITTLE JOHN, subject to the lifelong usufruct of my spouse, BIG JOHN. BIG JOHN is thus the usufructuary and LITTLE JOHN the bare owner.
Suppose the value of the property for the purpose of this example is R1 million. The usufruct value is calculated by capitalising R1 million allowing for BIG JOHN's life expectancy (according to tables) and multiplying it by 12% (or a % as approved by SARS), in other words R1 million x 6,74206 x 12% = R809 047.
The bare property value at the death of TOUGH TINA is thus R1 million minus R809 047 = R190 953. Should LITTLE JOHN sell the property at R1.5 million after BIG JOHN's death, taxable Capital Gains will potentially amount to R1 309 047 on which tax is payable.
We are not in principle against usufruct, but it is clear that costs and the influence of Capital Gains Tax on usufruct should be studied thoroughly before considering such a stipulation in your will.

Topic: Grasses or Grass-like
Title: Mowable grass to grow under pecan trees in Houston, Texas.
Answered by: Marilyn Kircus
QUESTION:I read your answer on grasses that will grow under pecans, but I�m looking for a grass that will blend in a bit with the rest of our St. Augustine grass yard. Something I can mow. Our pecan trees are huge and the drip line covers about 1/4 of our yard so I�d like to keep the space as a usable area for my kids. Any suggestions?
That's a pretty big order. You seem to want a play space for your children and use a grass that will look like St. Augustine and survive mowing. And the pecan trees are sucking up the water and nitrogen and leaving a pretty shady, dry, barren space for other plants and are also producing juglone, a substance toxic to many plants.
You will probably have to make some compromises or just put in a beautiful mulch that will give your children a safe play space and cut back on your yard work. You might also consider building wide paths and play destinations and use mulch as the surface. Then plant the rest of the area.
Now the plant choices: You could use one of these or all of them combined in various ways.
For a low grass-substitute that will seldom/never need mowing, a Carex species will probably work best for you. Some take light foot traffic and can be mowed at a high setting. (Or you can forget mowing because they stay short and might make a nice texture change against the St. Augustine grass).
Some of your choices include:
- Eastern woodland sedge
- Texas Sedge - Most Carex species are propagated by plugs but I see in this reference that seeds are available for this species which will make is cheaper and easier to start. On the down side, sedges are often difficult to find in nurseries.
You also might want to research other sedges mentioned in the next citations.
Here is a interesting article on Carex lawns.
And the book, Easy Lawns, by John Greenlee, has a good discussion on sedges and will give you more choices. And it discusses them in terms of grass substitutes in the lawn.
Another really beautiful grass is Inland Sea Oats. An ornamental plant, Inland Sea Oats is not a lawn grass but you might want to lay some pavers and make a little sitting area and then plant this where you can enjoy it against the western sun as you sit and sip your mimosa or Bud. Or against the eastern sun as you drink your coffee. It doesn't need mowing except in February when you can cut it back with a string trimmer or a very high mower. I've also seen it used all along a shaded path. This is very easy to grow from seed.
For a non-grass but tough little plant that takes foot traffic and mowing and will probably survive under your pecan tree, you might want to try horseherb. This has been considered a weed but is gaining in popularity in native gardens as it is tough, attractive, takes foot traffic and mowing and attracts some butterflies. And the good news is that you may already have it and just need to transplant it. One Houston nursery, Joshua's Native Plants, carries it. They also have Inland Sea Oats.
