Produced by Alex Da Kid. Lupe Fiasco's new album"Lasers" album in stores March 8th! FNF UP!!!
Every time I listen to this track it makes me realize how much I love it when I hear unadulterated expression. Lupe consistently expresses himself. And whether you agree or disagree, It's stated in clear terms. I dont even need to cite examples of artists in all genres who dont do that. Plus FINALLY SOMEONE IN HIP HOP RELEASES A SONG THAT NOT ONLY ADRESSES OPINIONS ON CURRENT EVENTS BUT MAKES IT A HOT SONG!!!!!
Nations that have never been heard.... need a piece of this information within the light of the internet, with information traveling through out the world, will only make this world become united like the USA, and when the hate gets eighten by the eater, we will then realize what LUPE FIASCO is speaking on, within this music composition of ideas, thoughts, dreams and overall FOCUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [if we(the world) take a stand against evil deeds, we can overcome our fears and become peaceful creatures on MARS and planets beyond...........zooooom LASERS~~go get ya a copy and support the truth!!! (which is lupe fiasco, not me)
i liked lupe's stuff from food and liquor better, the cool was also really good, but i don't like most of what i have heard from lasers (the show goes on is a nice song)
Super Rally for Solidarity with Egypt This event is planned to start at 2:00 pm on Feb 6, 2011 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX. http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=123541207718191
dang the song had 35k "likes" in first 24 hours. i guess that restarted cause the new site was launched
I always said the top 3 in the game are marshall lupe and whoever else u wanna add. This song once agian shows that hip hop still has some kinda meaning but one question the peeper is that the dijjal? thats what i got from it. Real talk tho if you ever do a song about palistine i would love to get a verse on it (i know i know fat chance) i figured i would try and i did but if you ever did do one, i would be honored to do that with you, ur style reminds me of what i was trying to accomplish when i was in the game but i left it cause the greed was to much for me. Inshallah you keep doing what ur doing but brother get away from that jewish label and do it on ur own, lol gaza was being bombed and obama didnt say shit lol , as for u being part of the problem, bro we all are cause we all stay quiet to all the bullshit but atleast ur using ur outlet the best you can. and for those who question this guys skills ill put him up against any of your fav rappers and if you guys are honest then you will say lyrically no one is touching him fuck the beat fuck the ice fuck the bitchs im talkn pure lyrical skill other then maybe marshall no one else in the game touches this guy with word play. Lupe said he wasnt gonna dumb it down and he still hasent a by the way if you ever read this lupe was superstar about judgment day or did i just miss the whole message but thats what i got from it salamualakim moe ps stay on ur deen and make ur salahs
Thank you Lupe. I know a lot of people out there are saying that this song has is just a political rant. Thats just cause they arn't seeing what they need to see. They are blinded by the influences around them unable to realise what kind of genius you have created. You have said the words that many people around the world are perhaps even afraid to say. To me this song shows what your real perspective is on these issues that affect us day to day. I'm really glad you made this song, it'll bring light to some of the issues that occur in the world that no one talks about because they don't know it, it'll spark discussion, something people need to be able to in order to make their own decisions. Even since Food & Liquor came out I've been hooked onto your music and I have to say that you are most definitely one of the best out there. Thank you for not only rapping about drugs, women, and money. I am so glad that you have created music that talks about the real issues in life, the stuff people need to know about. I can't wait for Lasers! Keep up the good work and show the world your genius!
LUPE make a song to Support the Egyptian Revolution! The people would love it! Lovin' The track keep it up!
Just THANK YOU, enough said. The FNF Dynasty continues... Chapter LASERS lets get it, if you buy it, its symbolic because you own it, you steal it doesn't have the same meaning because its not yours its Lupe's. Keep that in mind the next time you go shark'n on torrents.... -DRE
Lupe...love the piece. It's a very controversial piece. I have thought your music was unique and different from the rest when I first heard you. Keep doing your music, we love it. To THINKABOUTIT: Check out this piece on 9/11 on youtube....It's called Loose Changed. It'll make you think differently about our government and second guess their motives. It did for me. Take it or leave it as you will.
lupe..you have been my favorite artist since i was in 8th grade. Ive always enjoyed the messages of individuality in your music. And the social issues that you dared to bring to the table made for amazing content. But now you have brought world politics and conspiricy into your music..obviously the government is corupt and weilds enormous control. And of coarse you are fully entitled to your opinions. And i am also aware that you intened this song to be controversial. But you have a couple of lines in the song that discust me. For instance, implying that 9/11 was an inside job is one hell of an accusation.. i think that your music should make people question government not accuse it of all of our problems. but you are playing the oppisite of the media. Instead of feeding us lies, you are feeding us "truths". But are these "truths" only the truth because they are the oppisite of lies?? But you cant possibly be telling us THE truth. You may be telling us YOUR truth, and thats all well and good. But THE truth is hidden behind a conglomerate of ignorance, bias and opinion....and we will never find it. so do you really trust the people? I dont. how can i trust the people whom have had the opinions swayed by: their government, their parents, their friends, their professors, the mainstream media, social networking, and even their favorite artists...? Opinions are only based on opinions and truth has become so twisted that we no longer know which way is up. So no, government IS NOT the key. AND no the people are NOT the key. The truth IS the key. but where is it?? I dont know either. im still a huge fan...and i cant wait for lasers, but some of the verses in this song have left a sour taste in my mouth. I am all for you expressing your beliefs but i also hope you realize that you reach a lot of the youth and are a tremendous influence on them. And many people will take your song for what its worth and take on your opinions verbatim without concidering any other possibility.
I made an account just to say...... Lupe you're the best rapper alive! I just cant listen to anything else anymore. I have to say before 6months ago I never heard a single one of your songs. A friend of mine told me to go out and get your albums about 6 months ago and said that he found someone bad ass that we havn't heard yet. I found out it was Lupe Fiasco. I turned that shit on and havn't stopped listening to that plus your mix tape shit since. I can hardly wait for the release of LASERS
good song! love the overall message! there are a few lyrics i dont know if i completly agree with but i like the song overall!
I'm praying for you, Lupe. You are giving hope to so many of us. Please please please stay strong. Your music is giving a lot of us a lifeline of hope. Please never forget that.

5 Great Jungle Novels
While browsing Amazon.com, I came across a booklist called Amazon 2011! I was disappointed to find utilitarian titles such as the Travellers Wildlife Guide of Peru and the Smithsonian Atlas of the Amazon. They are very competent books, but I was looking for stories, novels, epics. I tried searching the addictive Listmania section of Amazon.com but came up with nothing (lots of other cool lists though, such as one on utopias). So ransacking my own memory I came up with five rain forest novels worth recommending:

Mayor Williams and the City of Wilmington Mourn the Loss and Honor Judge Leonoard Williams, Jr. By Lowering the City Flags to Half-Staff
Posted on 03/04/2013 12:42 pm
On March 2, Judge Leonard Williams, Jr. passed away. Judge Williams was a pioneer who blazed a trail fighting for equal civil rights and desegregation of educational institutions.
"Judge Williams was undoubtedly a pillar in the Wilmington community. He demonstrated tremendous leadership, strength, and integrity. Tirelessly advocating for those without a voice, Judge Williams was dedicated to ensuring everyone received the same access and opportunities to achieve a better quality of life," said Mayor Williams.
Judge Williams enrolled at the University of Delaware two years after Parker v. University of Delaware, the decision that desegregated UD in 1950. After graduating, Judge Williams attended Georgetown University Law School. He returned to Delaware in the late 1950s and became the fifth African-American admitted to the Delaware Bar. Judge Williams practiced law with Louis L. Redding until Redding's retirement.
Early in his legal career, Judge Williams was a part-time Assistant City Solicitor for the Municipal Court in Wilmington, and he later served as the Chief Prosecuting Attorney for that court. In May of 1966, he was appointed as an Associate Judge of the Municipal Court.
Judge Williams worked on many important civil rights cases including, Evans v. Buchanan, the New Castle school desegregation litigation; and the Burton v. Wilmington Parking Authority, a case tried in the Supreme Court of the United States.
The City of Wilmington will lower the City flag to half-staff at every City building in honor of Judge Williams and to recognize his dedicated service and community activism to the City of Wilmington. The flags will be lowered from Monday, March 4 – Friday, March 8.

Yes, we dare to say it.
Food in the beehive state has come into its own, with a recognizable style and signature ingredients.
Cooking is always both an art and a science, requiring an understanding of biology and chemistry as well as imagination. As Utah develops its own cuisine, local chefs depend on the basic truths developed by the ancient great cuisines of the world, but infuse their techniques with a strong sense of place. Utah food shows a loyalty to the land and the unique culture from which it has sprung—more sophisticated than ever but with a preference for simplicity over flash and no fondness for gilded lilies.
Except when it comes to dessert.

Winner pays all

When comparing a traditional paper method and electronic bidding, there are no differences in the process other than the ability to lower your bid. Image: American Public Works Association

By: Michael Fielding
Although it's proven viable for the private sector, the reverse auction remains a small piece of the government-purchasing pie.
You'd think a procurement method that lets potential vendors keep lowering their offer would be a no-brainer for any organization locked into the lowest-price paradigm. Same with a method that doesn't penalize buyers for not awarding a bid. Or one that doesn't cost the buyer a penny to conduct.
But it's not. Of 326 public entity responses to a recent survey by the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing Inc. (NIGP), only 12 indicated they use reverse auctions. That's down slightly from 2003, when the institute reported that 17 out of 276 respondents used the method.
Periscope Holdings Inc. manages the commodity and services code, the standard that state and local governments use to identify their specifications, for the institute. At the behest of public customers, the firm developed software only to find that reverse auctions had fallen out of favor.
Part of the reason is that governments have been burned. "Every time the economy has gone down, we've seen several players jump into the government market from the private sector," says CEO Brian Utley. "But they don't understand that it works differently. Government procurement is run by law."
Despite its lack of popularity in recent years, the reverse auction method is still attracting all sorts of attention, most notably during the American Public Works Association's annual Congress in Columbus, Ohio, last year. Curious department heads and financial managers packed a room for a session about reverse auctions. As a result, we decided to examine the method more closely for our annual "money issue."
In 2006, Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell signed the Local Government Unit Electronic Bidding Act into law, allowing municipalities, school districts, councils of government, authorities, and others to incorporate electronic bidding and reverse auctions into their competitive bidding processes.
Before then, most local governments were restricted by the competitive bidding language in their municipal codes. The law amended the state's procurement code to allow local governments to use electronic bidding and reverse auctions for their own purchases.
The Delaware County Regional Water Quality Control Authority in Chester, Pa., immediately tried it out. That November, a reverse auction facilitated by eDynaQuote, which has since been acquired by Procurex, cut the cost on orders for liquid caustic soda and liquid chlorine by $87,500.
"We could never have saved this much with the old paper process," says the county's Procurement Coordinator Sue Hart. The agency has used the method every year since then. The winning bids shift among the same handful of suppliers, but each year the final price has been lower than the previous year. "It's easy. We just sit back and watch the results come in."
As a general rule, the buyer has achieved true market value if the two lowest bids differ by no more than 2%.
In 2009 the City of Norton, Ohio, used a facilitator called BidBridge to find a contractor to replace 12,000 feet of water main. After an hour, 10 companies had submitted 283 bids, dropping the final price to $423,786 — a 40% savings over the engineer's estimate.
It wasn't the city's first experience with reverse auctions. Two smaller water main projects yielded good results; the first came in 17% below the engineer's estimate, and the second was almost double that. So Administrator Rick Ryland decided that it would likely produce significant savings for the larger project.
And in February, the 10,500-resident city of Dallas, Ga., shaved almost half — 44% — off its original budget of $500,000 on a two-year waste collection contract for 2,700 residential waste pickups and a handful of commercial pickups, also using BidBridge.
Facilitators such as eDynaQuote and Bid-Bridge organize the event by alerting their customer's current supplier list, combing through their own database, and seeking new suppliers based on the parameters set by the public works department, such as a preference for locally based suppliers.
The companies review bid documents for specifications that could potentially restrict competition, adding — for example — language that opens the field to minority- or veteran-owned businesses.
Although the client has to put some work in as well, you're only as limited as you choose to be.
After the city's previous waste hauler went bankrupt last year, Dallas, Ga., City Manager Kendall Smith negotiated a month-to-month contract with Raleigh, N.C.-based Waste Industries USA Inc. before deciding to send out requests for proposals (RFP) and qualifications in hopes of finding a long-term replacement.
None of the respondents met all the city's requirements. So Smith, who'd spent 18 years as the city's public works director, did some research.
He lowered the previous requirement of proof of a previous contract of at least five years for governments of more than 3,000 customers to attract larger local contractors that had plenty of successful commercial and residential work but little government experience. After learning that some of the largest nearby cities didn't require such large policies, he reduced the requirement for a $10 million umbrella insurance policy to $3 million. He also added a restriction that vendors would not be allowed to raise the fuel cost.
That expanded the field to 13.
It's simpler to maintain a customer account than win a new one, so incumbents often get more aggressive with their pricing to keep existing business. And that's what happened.
In the last half hour of the auction, Waste Industries dropped its original quote of $389,786 by about $50,000 as competitors outbid each other. The company won the award with a final bid of $280,850. Of that, it paid BidBridge a small percentage.
And that's who keeps reverse auction facilitators in business: the winning bidder. The fee is 2% to 5% of the final bid.
"Reverse auctions do drive pricing down, but compared to the traditional bid process, you have the opportunity to come back with another number," says Jim Auten, vice president of marketing & sales for Waste Industries. It was the first experience with a reverse auction for the company, which also operates in South Carolina, Maryland, Tennessee, and Virginia. "It was certainly more exciting than the traditional bid process. I felt like I was in Vegas."
That said, contractors generally oppose reverse auctions, arguing that material quality and contractor experience aren't taken into consideration during the bidding process. In Ohio, House Democrats slipped a provision into the state budget last year banning reverse auctions for the purchase of supplies or services in road, building, and sewer projects. The Associated General Contractors of America did not return calls from PUBLIC WORKS for comment.

Combines an exfoliating hydroxy acid to blend with botanical extracts to gently remove impurities, excess oils and makeup.
Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycerin, Cocamide Dea, Aloe Barbadensis Extract, Vaccinium Myrtillus Extract, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane) Extract, Acer Saccharinum (Sugar Maple) Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Extract, Chamomilla Recutita Extract (Matricaria), Symphytum Officinale Extract (Comfrey), Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Sodium Chloride, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben
SkinCeuticals At-A-Glance
Strengths: Great line to shop if you're looking for well-formulated vitamin C and retinol products; some outstanding sunscreens (including for sensitive skin), and every one provides sufficient UVA protection; one effective AHA product; good self-tanner; several fragrance-free products.
Weaknesses: Mostly problematic cleansers and toners; fruit and sugar extracts trying to substitute for AHA products when the real deal is much better; ineffective BHA products; jar packaging.
With a strong presence in the professional (meaning spa and aesthetics) skin-care market, SkinCeuticals has a mostly well-deserved reputation for producing serious-minded, research-driven products, several of which are centered on L-ascorbic acid. Company founder Dr. Sheldon Pinnell began the line after a falling out with the folks behind Cellex-C, a company for which Dr. Pinnell once served as spokesperson. The falling out had to do with both Cellex-C and Dr. Pinnell holding patents on L-ascorbic acid; Cellex-C held the patent on a formula with L-ascorbic acid (the original Cellex-C serum) while Dr. Pinnell's patent (now conspicuously absent from SkinCeuticals products) was only for the ingredient. The drama continued as, years later, the doctor who joined Pinnell to work on SkinCeuticals' vitamin C products began his own company, also selling products with vitamin C. Who needs Desperate Housewives when we have desperate doctors racing to be the authoritative word on the anti-aging properties of vitamin C?
The good news is that copious research has demonstrated that L-ascorbic acid (despite its stability issues, which, formula-wise, SkinCeuticals products do address) is a good, potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. It has also been shown to provide photoprotective benefits when skin is exposed to UV light and is capable of stimulating collagen production - though don't take that to mean it is a cure for wrinkles (Sources: International Journal of Toxicology, 2005, supplement, pages 51–111; Experimental Dermatology, June 2003, pages 237–244; Dermatologic Surgery, March 2002, pages 231–236; Bioelectrochemistry and Bioenergetics, May 1999, pages 453–461; and International Journal of Radiation Biology, June 1999, pages 747–755). Of course, other forms of vitamin C have equally impressive research, and some forms, such as magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, have better stability profiles (Source: Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, March 1997, pages 795–801).
As we've mentioned before, vitamin C is but one of many good antioxidants, and it's not the best approach to select any one or two antioxidants and bank on them alone to provide every conceivable skin-rejuvenating benefit. Instead, go for products that offer a cocktail of antioxidants because you'll get a greater range of benefits. Plus, some antioxidants in combination have a synergistic effect that surpasses what occurs when any of the ingredients are used alone. SkinCeuticals clearly knows this, because their vitamin C products also contain the antioxidant ferulic acid, and some add vitamin E to the mix as well. Above all, remember that as multifunctional as antioxidants are, they cannot stop aging, they won't eliminate wrinkles, and they do not replace the need for daily sun protection.
L'Oreal purchased SkinCeuticals in May 2005, and, for the time being, seems to be letting them stay on their course. That's a good thing, because despite L'Oreal's considerable financial reserves and global R&D team, the skin-care products their brands produce consistently lag behind what current research indicates are state-of-the-art options. As long as they continue to let SkinCeuticals retain its stature, there are many good reasons to shop this line; however, that said, this line is far from perfect in terms of being able to assemble a complete skin-care routine. Focusing on what they do best (which is serums, sunscreens, and specialty products) will be money well spent for visible results. Those who find the SkinCeuticals price tags to be a deal-breaker need to know that despite several notable products, they're hardly the only game in town; you can find equally superior products for less money, though not all of them follow the impressive concentration protocols of SkinCeuticals.

I won a government scholarship to study for a postgraduate dentistry qualification in the UK. I chose Cardiff University as they offer the MSc in Implantology, which is what I am interested in. Not all universities have a course in this area.
The Bridge programme is helping me improve my English before I start my Masters course. The teachers are helpful and very nice. My listening and speaking are much better and I try to find time to read outside lessons too.
I like living in Cardiff. It is safe and relaxed here and the people are very friendly. I look forward to bringing my family here to live when I start my postgraduate course. The housing is affordable and the transport is good. It is easy to get to other parts of the UK, and sometimes I go on weekend holidays to other cities, so I have the chance to see a lot of places.
When I was offered a place at Cardiff University I spoke to a relative in London who said I would enjoy living in the city. She was right, and I would recommend it to other people.

When one current and three former Dallas mayors get together to swap tales, who wouldn't want to eavesdrop? The Generations of Generosity storytelling event reflected on the distinguished six decades of philanthropic support by the Communities Foundation of Texas. Mayor Mike Rawlings, with former mayors Tom Leppert, Laura Miller and Ron Kirk, discussed the city's major milestones, with a huge tip of the hat to the generosity of Dallas. As Kirk put it: "In Dallas, giving is a competitive sport." Also in attendance were former mayor Wes Wise, former acting mayors Mary Poss and Adlene Harrison, and outgoing City Manager Mary Suhm. Quite the powerhouse lineup for the city ranked by Chronicle of Philanthropy as the ninth most generous metropolitan area! Photography by Kristina Bowman and Kim Leeson

Let's be adults about this – I'm fat. This isn't insecure Bridget Jones whining. I've honestly packed on some pounds. At first it was kind of cool. When I rush downstairs my belly fat quivers. Kinda like the stomach flip you get when going down a rollercoaster. If I jerk my head to the left, the right side of my body jiggles. Sorta like there's a waterbed underneath my skin (groovy). Every morning I play the challenging game of "stuff the thighs into the dark wash denim." And every morning it's like shoving a television set into a condom. I know I can free myself of the flub through simple diet and exercise. However, I waste more time haggling with the membership director at the Bedford Avenue YMCA instead of actually spending the measly 45-minutes on the treadmill. I cancel out the nutrients of a salad by dumping bits of cheese pizza into it. The times when I could be feeling the burn (I live a whole two blocks away from the aforementioned Y) I'm stuffing my face with candies and watching Mahogany.
In an effort to end Operation Pork I've tried to be more aggressive with my nightlife excursions. Recently, I attended the glorious Flashing Lights party at Mehanata. The first floor of Mehanata had crazy iridescent plastic leaves covering the ceiling which made me feel like I downed some 'luudes and partied in an enchanted freezer. A-Trak spun some dizzying Euro House jams from Fedde Le Grand and Mylo. Upstairs was a Balkan Beat party where I danced with a slight fellow from Albania and jumped around like the harvest just came in.
Also, I'd been curious about Theophilus London for a while. I finally got closure at his This Charming Mixtape release party at The Studio at Webster Hall. Performance-wise, he has a loooong way to go. It's a pale version of the slobber over the microphone, hump womenfolk in the audience, me against the mainstream thing that Spank Rock has been owning for years. It was like watching a bunch of really hyper zoo animals trying to break the cages with their screams. The ubiquitous Jesse Boykins III was his backup singer which was not a great look for London. Boykin's easy cool was more captivating than London's desperate mayhem. It was like watching Smoky Robinson two-step next to Ol' Dirty Bastard. However, the music itself is proper. London and Boykins' "Cold Pillow" is an airy electro-soul jam with an addictive beat. His remix of Solange's "Sandcastle Disco" is equally catchy.
Maybe I can listen to it when I hit the gym. Or when I wallow in my own flub eating candies.

La Monnaie ¦ Chamber music ¦ Le Sacre du Printemps ¦ Intro
Le Sacre du Printemps
Pianoduo Mephisto
Rarely was a work of art more designed to shock than Stravinsky's and Diaghilev's ballet The Rite of Spring, whose 1913 première triggered one of the most famous riots in the history of classical music. Furious whistling and cat-calls shot forth from the opening bars and soon degenerated into arguments and fist fights. The police was called in but failed to restore order, to the utter delight of Stravinsky and his friends, who had precisely hoped for this kind of reaction. What had so deeply nettled the Belle-Epoque Parisian audience wasn't so much the work's subject matter – a pagan ritual in which a young girl dances herself to death – as its savage depiction through grating dissonances, jagged rhythms and chaotic dance moves. Here was a work that turned us inwards to our earthy, animal selves, when the purpose of art was still seen as to elevate. Two young Flemish pianists (Katrijn Simoens and John Gevaert, who go by the name of Pianoduo Mephisto) perform the work in an arrangement for four hands that Stravinsky penned himself and actually published before the orchestral version. Two other controversial works from the period, Debussy's La Mer and Ravel's La Valse (both composers, incidentally, were among Stravinsky's early admirers) frame the programme.

McIlroy can wrap up Euro money title in Singapore
Posted at: 11/07/2012 5:35 PM
By JUSTIN BERGMAN
(AP) SINGAPORE - With his closest rivals sitting on the sidelines, Rory McIlroy can wrap up the European Tour money title with a strong showing at this week's Singapore Open.
The Northern Irishman already has claimed the U.S. PGA Tour money list and is looking to emulate Luke Donald's 2011 feat of capturing both money titles in the same season.
"I'm in the lead at the moment and it would be nice to increase that," McIlroy said Wednesday, a day before the tournament. "There's still a lot to play for in the next three weeks and I want to finish off the season as strong as possible."
McIlroy has a lead of about $1 million over Swedish golfer Peter Hanson, who beat him by a stroke in Shanghai two weeks ago to climb to second in the Race to Dubai standings. But Hanson has opted out of playing in Singapore.
The next three golfers on the money list also are not competing this week: Justin Rose, Ian Poulter, the winner at last weekend's HSBC Champions, and Branden Grace.
British Open champion Ernie Els had been in the sixth spot, but his name was dropped from the list this week because he hasn't played the required number of tournaments.
South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen and Italy's Francesco Molinari, sixth and seventh in the standings respectively, are taking part in Singapore.
Three-time Singapore champion Adam Scott, Phil Mickelson, Padraig Harrington, Colin Montgomerie, John Daly and Miguel Angel Jiminez are also teeing it up at the Serapong Course at Sentosa Golf Club.
This weekend's winner receives $1 million. McIlroy is also competing at next week's Hong Kong Open, while most of his top challengers are again sitting out.
McIlroy chose not to play last week at the HSBC Champions, a decision that was publicly questioned by the sponsor.
Tiger Woods, ranked second to McIlroy, also declined to play in Shenzhen days after they took part in a head-to-head exhibition event in the central Chinese city of Zhengzhou.
McIlroy preferred to be courtside in Bulgaria last week, watching girlfriend Caroline Wozniacki reach the final of the WTA's Tournament of Champions, while Woods traveled to Singapore briefly for corporate commitments.
McIlroy defended his decision Wednesday, saying his schedule this autumn has been exhausting and he's earned the right to be choosier about his events.
"I can't play every week. If I had I would have played five in a row finishing the season and after playing Turkey and Ryder Cup and all the FedEx Cup stuff, it's just too much," he said.
"You have to say no and you have to be selfish sometimes and look after yourself; it doesn't make you a bad person," he added. "You have got to put yourself first and foremost, and try fit in the things you want to do. I'm in the fortunate position where I can dictate where I want to play, what I want to do, where I want to go."
Mickelson understands how tough it is for McIlroy and Woods to manage their schedules given how much they are in demand.
"We certainly want to help promote the game and drive the game throughout the world, but Tiger's just one person, and I think it's a little unrealistic for every tournament and every sponsor in every city in every country to expect him to be able to play every week," he said.
Mickelson said he's finally playing well again after struggling earlier this season, and he likes his chances in Singapore, especially coming off the HSBC Champions, where he finished tied for second, two strokes behind Poulter.
"I've had a really tough three or four months, when I played some of the worst golf in my career," he said. "It's turning out to be one of the best things that have happened for me because it forced me to analyze my game and dissect it and put each part back."
Scott, winless this year on the European and U.S. tours, was also looking to end his season on a positive note. He may have his best shot in Singapore, given his previous victories here in 2005, 2006 and 2010.
"My game is in good shape, I have played a lot of good golf this year," he said. "Getting to the point now that I am getting a little desperate to win a tournament. There are not that many left and this one would be a great one for me to do it at."

Your First Visit
The following information will help you prepare for your first visit with the genetic counselor.
- Preparing for Your First Visit
- What to Expect at Your First Appointment
- Questions to Ask on Your First Visit
- Medical Records
- Insurance
- Genetic Testing
Preparing for Your First Visit
Is there anything I can/should do before my appointment?
Your doctor has referred you for hereditary cancer risk assessment and genetic counseling to discuss your personal and/or family medical history. So that the genetic counselor can accurately evaluate your family history, we are asking you to fill out a questionnaire and bring it to your genetic counseling appointment. Your answers are private, secure and provide important information that enriches communication between you and the genetic counselor.
How do I find all the information to complete the Genetic Risk Assessment Questionnaire?
Please give yourself time to complete the questionnaire. You may find it helpful to talk to your family members to find out as much medical information as you can about your family history.
To speed up the process of completing the questionnaire, it may be helpful to gather information (current age or age at death, and general health history) on your family members. Specifically, we will ask about your immediate family members, including your parents, siblings and children. We also want to know about your extended family members, including your aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents, on each side of your mother and father's family.
For family members who have had cancer, you will need to obtain the following information:
- Type of cancer (e.g., breast, colon, ovarian, etc.)
- Age cancer was diagnosed
- Current age. If deceased, age and cause of death (may or may not be from cancer)
- Clarify whether the cancer was unilateral (e.g., one breast) or bilateral (e.g., both breasts)
- Clarify whether the family member with cancer developed a second cancer. If yes, it is important to try to clarify whether the second cancer was a metastasis (spread from the first cancer), or a new primary cancer (new separate cancer)
Correct information about the types of cancer in your family is very important in assessing cancer risk. It may also be helpful to locate medical records from family members who had cancer. These records include pathology reports of tumors, surgical reports and hospital discharge summaries regarding their cancer course.
We understand you may be unable to collect all the information about your family history of cancer. Genetic counseling will be based on the information that you provide. The following documents provide more information about how to gather family information:
Gathering Information for a Cancer-Focused Family History (English)
Gathering Information for a Cancer-Focused Family History (Español)
What do I need to bring to my first appointment?
Once you have completed the questionnaire, you are ready for your appointment. Please bring the questionnaire to your appointment along with any copies of medical records (including genetic test results, pathology reports, etc.) if you have them.
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
What is genetic counseling?
Genetic counseling is a process of providing information and support about genetics and inherited conditions to an individual or family. The goal of genetic counseling is to provide clear and clinically relevant information about genetic risk factors in an atmosphere of support and education.
Read more about the genetic counseling process in English or Español (pdf).
Who are genetic counselors?
Genetic counselors are health care professionals with graduate degrees and experience in the areas of medical genetics and counseling. Most enter the field with a background in biology, genetics, nursing, psychology, public health or social work.
What can I expect during my first visit to a genetic counselor?
During your first visit, the genetic counselor will review your family medical history, and help you understand the role of genes in causing cancer. The genetic counselor will perform a cancer risk assessment based on the information you provide. We will discuss the chance that a risk for cancer might be passed through the genes in your family and discuss any genetic testing that could be helpful for your family. We will also give you a general estimate of your personal cancer risks. During the risk assessment, we will discuss appropriate screening and prevention for you and your family. If eligible, you will be given information about research programs at Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center.
I just want genetic testing; why do I need genetic counseling?
Genetic testing is not recommended for everyone. During your cancer risk assessment, we will help you decide if genetic testing is right for you. Genetic testing usually begins with a family member who has had cancer. Individuals should thoroughly consider whether or not to have genetic testing. During the genetic counseling visit, we will discuss any concerns you may have about genetic testing as well as possible results, benefits, risks and limitations of the testing. We will also discuss cost, insurance coverage and issues of genetic discrimination.
I don't want to have genetic counseling because I don't want to have genetic testing.
You will have a cancer risk assessment during your first visit. At that time, we will discuss the risk for hereditary cancer in your family. We will also discuss whether or not genetic testing could be helpful for your family. Not all patients who have genetic counseling decide to have genetic testing. The genetic counselor is here to give you the information that you need to make an informed decision about genetic testing.
Questions to Ask on Your First Visit
Can family members come with me to my first appointment?
You are welcome to invite anyone to come with you (family, friend, etc.) to your appointment, but you will be the main focus of the consultation. If you bring a friend or family member with you and they have specific questions or concerns, it may be necessary to schedule a separate appointment for them.
Why do I have to go through genetic counseling?
You do not need to have genetic counseling if you do not want to. However, your physician may have recommended that you consider genetic counseling because of your personal or family history of cancer. If you are interested in a personalized cancer risk assessment and/or having genetic testing for a particular gene, you should have genetic counseling first to discuss possible test results as well as the benefits, risks and limitations of genetic testing. We will also discuss cost, insurance coverage and concerns about genetic discrimination. The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) recommends that genetic testing only be done in the setting of pre- and post-test counseling.
What information can I expect to receive during my first visit?
During your first visit, the genetic counselor will review your family medical history, and help you understand the role of genes in causing cancer. The genetic counselor will perform a cancer risk assessment based on the information you provide. We will discuss the chance that a risk for cancer might be passed through the genes in your family and discuss any genetic testing that could be helpful for your family. We will also give you a general estimate of your personal cancer risks. During the risk assessment, we will discuss appropriate screening and prevention for you and your family.
How long is my first visit?
The first genetic consultation visit will usually last 60-90 minutes.
How many visits will I need?
Once a genetic counselor has met with you for your cancer risk assessment, she can discuss with you how often you may need to be seen again. This often depends on follow-up of additional family history information, whether you or a family member decides to have genetic testing and the complexity of the situation.
Will a physician be present during my genetic counseling visits?
A physician may or may not be present at all genetic counseling visits. However, the genetic counselor will consult with our team of physicians about your medical and family history.
Will I always meet with a genetic counselor during my visits?
Yes, a genetic counselor will always be present to discuss your medical and family history.
How do I obtain a family member's medical records?
If you need to obtain a family member's medical records, your family member will need to sign a form authorizing release of their medical information to you or your health care provider. Your family member will need to indicate which information from their medical record they would like to release to you (pathology report, surgical report, genetic consultation notes, genetic test results, etc.). If that family member is deceased, the closest living relative must sign the release form.
How do I obtain a copy of my genetic consultation notes?
Records are available from the Release of Information Office. You must provide a signed Authorization for Disclosure of Information form. You can complete this form at the Welcome Center on the first floor of the Cancer Center. You must specify on the form that you would like to release your genetic consultation notes.
Release of Information office: (480) 543-2060
How do I obtain a copy of my pedigree?
A pedigree is the drawn family tree that you and the genetic counselor developed during your first genetics consultation. Pedigrees are available from the Clinical Cancer Genetics Program. Please contact your genetic counselor to obtain a copy.
Will the information discussed during the genetic counseling appointment(s) be part of my medical records?
Yes. This information is made available to your health care providers so they can make appropriate medical management recommendations and decisions.
Will my genetic test results be part of my medical records?
Yes. The results of any genetic testing will be recorded in your medical records. This information is made available to your health care providers so that they can make appropriate medical management recommendations and decisions.
Will my insurance cover my genetics visit?
Our services are covered by many insurance companies. In order to verify if your insurance company will cover your visit, please contact your Patient Financial Services Specialist.
How is genetic counseling going to affect my insurance?
There is no evidence that having a cancer risk assessment will impact your insurance. During your first visit, the genetic counselor will provide you with information about genetic discrimination.
How is genetic testing going to affect my insurance?
There is current state and federal legislation that provides protection from genetic discrimination to individuals enrolled in group health insurance plans. The genetic counselor will provide you with information about genetic discrimination before you have genetic testing.
How do I get a letter of medical necessity so that my insurance can cover the genetic counseling visit?
If your insurance requires a letter of medical necessity for your visit to be covered, please contact your referring physician and ask them to provide your insurance the letter of medical necessity.
How do I get a letter of medical necessity so that my insurance can cover genetic testing?
If you choose to undergo genetic testing, the genetic counselor will discuss insurance coverage and letter of medical necessity. The genetic counselor will not be able to write a letter until after you have received a cancer risk assessment.
What is genetic testing?
During your cancer risk assessment, the genetic counselor will discuss whether genetic testing is an option for you or your family to consider. Genetic testing involves analyzing a blood sample for specific changes in the DNA, or genetic information. The decision to have genetic testing is a personal choice that can be made at the time of the counseling visit, or at a future date.
Is genetic testing recommended for all patients?
Genetic testing is available for some families with a strong family history of certain types of cancer. During your cancer risk assessment, we will help you decide if genetic testing is right for you or your family. It is best to begin genetic testing with a family member who has had cancer or a precancerous condition that suggests susceptibility to cancer. The genetic counselor will discuss who the best person in your family is to consider genetic testing.
Will I need to fast before my blood draw for genetic testing?
No. There is no special preparation before you have your blood drawn for genetic testing. Patients typically have one to two tubes of blood drawn for testing. The genetic counselor will explain the process of genetic testing before you have your blood drawn to answer any of your questions and concerns.
How accurate is genetic testing?
Once a genetic test is determined to be appropriate for you or your family, the genetic counselor will discuss with you the sensitivity of the test (ability to detect genetic changes).
How much does genetic testing cost?
The cost ranges from $350 - $4,000 or more, based on the specific test ordered. The genetic counselor will determine the specific genetic test that is recommended for you and discuss the cost of testing prior to ordering any genetic testing. Some insurance companies cover the cost of genetic testing.
How long will it take to get my genetic test results?
At the time of your blood draw, the genetic counselor will discuss with you the estimated length of time it will take the lab to analyze your sample. The range is usually from two weeks to one month. The genetic counselor will contact you with your test results when they become available. If a follow up appointment is necessary to discuss your results, the genetic counselor will inform you at the time you are contacted.

One of the fortunate handful of artists to be discovered via MySpace, Georgian folk pop singer Meiko recently released her make-you-feel-all-gooey-inside sophomore album The Bright Side. And yes, her cooing vocal style is definitely reminding us heavy of one of our other favorite gals, Ellie Goulding.
While you may first think Ellie, don't get it twisted – the sweet toned lass cites a slew of influences that include Patty Griffin, Sade, The Cranberries, Fiona Apple, Indigo Girls, Nina Simone, and Portishead, for starters.
For those unfamiliar, get a taste of Meiko's sound via the below video for the album's leading track "Leave The Lights On." Quite forward lyricism from the sweet young lady – watch out for the nice ones!

Kiler Grove winemaker Michael Knight, a northern California native from St. Helena (just outside of Sonoma), has spent the last ten years working to develop his vineyard (a small estate in Paso Robles) and grapes, dealing with the DABC (oddly enough, most of his problems came from California laws, SLC was a bit easier to navigate) restrictions and perfecting his blends.
The result? Some really good wine and a tasting room in South Salt Lake. What? Yes, you read that right. Wine in Salt Lake.
That being said, I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting up Mr. Knight last night at a wine tasting dinner hosted by Metropolitan.
Now, At the ripe age at 23 I don't exactly have the discerning palate of a full-blown foodie or the viticulture knowledge of a refined win-o, but sitting alongside Mr. Knight, across from Mr. Scott Evans of Pago and next to the lovely Tracey Thompson of Vine Lore, I was able to listen in and learn as the dinner progressed, and just maybe, was able to pretend like I knew what I was doing.
The dinner started off with a grilled vegetable bruschetta paired with the 2008 Kiler Grove Trebbiano, which may or may not be a new varietal for many. Knight refers to the Trebbiano as "where Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc meet at the Grapefruit." Smooth, crisp and refreshing without being too tart or acidic, the wine was a perfect compliment to the first course. Oh, and the food: three crisp slices of baguette topped with a mustard green puree (or was this pea puree? My un-discerning palate was confused), nevertheless the sweet, green puree offset the salty, grilled vegetable topping of eggplant and sweet onions to a T.
Before I get much further, I must make note of the service at Metropolitan. I'm not a novice at dining out and have taken in my fair share of the local cuisine, but the service has never stood out like it did last night. I happen to have a soft spot for chivalry and the old-school service of serving the ladies first, taking dishes from the proper sides and just all-in-all making sure the diner was taken care has always stood out to me. The staff at Metropolitan did not disappoint.
Next up: The 2009 Interpretation paired, interestingly enough, with a white fish. As a sushi-bar -server of days past I've had my fair share of raw, white halibut cheeks, the 'prime' cut of the fish that we often stole for ourselves. However, this preparation was much, much different. Appearing on the plate in a perfectly molded square, half the table was left wondering, 'is this tofu? scrambled egg white? a big chunk o' mozzarella?' Nope. The odd texture and shape aside, salty, spongy halibut cheek was prepared with a relish of earthy, dirty-but-in-a-good-way morels, almonds, celery and juicy, sweet prunes.
Of course, my Food & Wine mag indoctrinated wine pairing knowledge questioned as to why red wine was being served with this dish? Why? Because the red Rhone homage blend with its dark cherry and plum flavors and mushroom undertones added just that perfect touch to the salty fish and relish.
Round 3: Seared duck breast served on top of a nutty, red quinoa with roasted strawberries, rhubarb coulis and tarragon. The sweet and savory combo melded perfectly and the roasted strawberries brought out an almost smokey taste. The duck was the furthest thing from greasy and was perfectly seared with a spice crust and just a touch of pink in the meat. The dish was served with a 2005 Zinergy (you might remember this wine from the Talisker booth at Tastemakers, notably an attendee fav). A beautiful blend of Zin and Petite Sirah with a touch of Grenache, the Zinergy is deemed Kiler's flagship wine, and for good reason. It's such a subtle and smooth wine that could easily be sipped glass by glass (by glass)on its own.
....and then my phone died, which ultimately ended our photo tour so bear with me.
Yep, we are still eating: Next up, a smoky grilled lamb loin chop served on an array of heirloom tomatoes and baby corn, which was easily my favorite dish of the evening. That being said, I do not care for any sort of red meat. It's not that I have anything against it, I've just never been a fan. This, however, I could have eaten for days. Melt-in-your-mouth, grilled to a tender, red finish and coated in an almost hickory taste. The lamb was served alongside Michael Knight's favorite of the wine's, the 2007 Zinergy. While the notes were still similar, the two wines had different tannins, mouthfeel and flavors (how educated did that sound!?). The newer Zinergy exuded a leathery texture and cocoa notes, almost spicy. Knight said that while he loved it paired with a traditional red meat, he'd tasted it alongside salmon, pasta and pizza and has yet to find a dish it didn't conform to.
Dessert brought the meal, the conversation and the tasting to a close. A deconstructed panna cotta was served in two tasting spoons, one filled with a blueberry coulis, another with a sweet and spicy ginger granita and a smear of lemon curd, which we were instructed to eat with our creativity. Paired with a simple, yet typical cava, which seemed to be a bit of a letdown following the Kiler wines before. So, Mr. Knight, for your next project I'd like a dessert wine so I can round out a full meal with Kiler Grove.
So what did we learn from this? A few things. Namely, do not wait to get down to the Kiler Grove Tasting room located at 2330 South and 53 West. Knight has most of the wines in stock and they are priced well-below what they are worth. You can sip the wines and decide on a favorite for yourself and if you're lucky you'll get to chat up Michael Knight and learn all about his vineyard, the grapes, his history and anything else you'd like to know about wine. Second, Metropolitan remains a downtown SLC staple. From service, to atmosphere to the ever-changing, never disappointing menu, you won't be disappointed. And lastly, food writing makes me very, very anxious. So thank you for sticking it out with me, you deserve a glass of wine.

Cute. Little. And They Store Things.
One of the requirements for this swap is an item to decorate my partner's sewing space. These should be good for storing thread or other notions, so I can check that off the list! And I have my partner's fabric already (we have to swap a total of 1.5 yards of fabric as well). So that just leaves the main part of the swap, my "handmade item," and I think I'm working toward a plan there as well. It sure is nice to have made some progress on this swap.
I'm linking up to Sew Modern Monday ... pop over to Megan's to see what everybody else was up to this weekend!

You shouldn't decide who gets a chance and who doesn't. That's not fair at all.
What makes a poster good anyway? Posts you like. Posts you think are good?
It comes down to you deciding who is good and who is not.
I've never seen The Editor do anything wrong. Or be a bad poster.
This is complete bullshit because you personally can not speak for everyone on this forum. You are not the voice of PD. You have no right to say that shit
I don't see what the fuck I've done thats so terrible anyways.
Because these threads are completely stupid and you're just trying to protect yourselves so you can further fuck with new people
It's ridiculous and I made that thread to so that you guys couldn't infect any possible new comers.
Imagine joining a club at your school, and having 3 rejected douche bags come in and start raping each other, would you stay in the club?
It's the fucking Internet.
Get over it, seriously.
I don't see a picture of you around either.
Star, stop arguing now
You're just randomly bashing him now, and it's pointless.
Lord, don't try to pull that shit off and cop out with a comment like that. Admit that you suck, you still suck, you sucked before and then maybe you can start to MAYBE become less shitty.
Suck at posting, refusing to improve and denying such.
What do you mean, get over it? Am I the one who is making a thread to combat another and using corny phrases everyone's heard like "BELIEVE WHAT YOU WANT TO!"
If you're going to try to have an argument of any sort, don't contradict yourself
I never implied that the list of members to ignore were bad posters (to my opinion and almost everyone elses, they are though). Why do I need to define something that is irrelevant.
Not to mention the huge redundant contradiction in your post! SAY WHY THEY ARE BAD WIHTAWT STATIN UR OPINION!
You're the one that said that people were on that list because they are bad posters, and it had nothing to do with your personal opinion.
So obviously there is some defining principles that makes someone a bad poster. And because you claimed that it has nothing to do with whether or not you like them, you should be able to tell me what makes a poster bad, and not include anything about your personal feelings.
You've still yet to explain how I'm a bad poster.
Again, you sidesweep my comments and continue with the same fucking questions.
THAT FIRST POST was not stating that they sucked. It did not hold my personal opinions (besides the pedophilia comment added in as a joke). You are now really desperate to have to go after OTHER posts I made. Yes, my other posts are VALID OPINIONS. I will readily admit that.

That's not what we're talking about.
Stop avoiding the fucking question. You're just continuing to prove that you have no legitimate answer. You can't explain why I'm a bad poster, or why I deserve to be on that list without using your personal feelings of me. Which would prove you wrong and make you're entire elitist thread moot.
inb4 Star posts and tries to crawl up my ass
Cthulhu Ryleh Ftagn! Ya Shub Niggurath! The Dingos ate mah Baby! Does anyone here actually have a good recipe for armadillo? I mean I know people eat possum, heck they have a coupl of possum fests at various places in the south, but armadillos.... does anyone eat them? How do they taste? Just wonderin ya know?
What if God was one of us? Just a slob like one of us? Just a stranger on the bus trying to make his way home? I made that up. Isn't it profound? Chicken Helper is far inferior to both Tuna and Hamburger Helper. I prefer the later myself but I'm a beef man. Well actually I guess I'm more of a pork guy myself, although I do enjoy beef. Bacon, Pork Chops, Pork Ribs... that's where it's at. Although Steak is great as well. And there is probably nothing that tops grilled deer meat wrapped in bacon. MMMMM MMMMM now that';s good eating.
So Iron Man is a douche, the Hulk is in Prison, Captain America is dead, Spider-Man made a deal with Satan to save the life of his decrepit Aunt Man, giving up his hot supermodel wife to become a biger loser than ever. At least Hercules has his own book right now... oh and the Hulk's Warbound are relatively awesome.
If you've made it this far through the post, Read Planet Hulk. You won't be disappointed. It's far superior to the blahblahblah nonsense that makes this post, yo.
Planet Hulk aye?
This whole meme is getting old
Well its a shit load better then all of the other fucking posts like this.
Why can't you get this through your fucking head? I said that after the fact. What you were butthurt over was not my personal opinions, it was that you were flagged for what you are. Now you're just trying to argue.
I say that they are horrible posters NOW. What you are arguing about is that thread. NOT THE POSTS IN THE THREAD BUT THE THREAD'S TOPIC. If you are having to search through my individual comments in OTHER threads, then you have lost.
Yes, Planet Hulk.... the whole SL is available in Hardcover. It's probably the Best Hulk Story written....If you want a quick synopsis, lemme know and I'll post is here.
Trust me, I would never want to get near that fat ass, nor anywhere near you.

Hi Scott, got an email from you via the webboard, only it had no return address.
You had some questions about A-10 trannys, so here are the answers:
Oil, and level. Use engine oil, typ 40 or 50 weight, and fill until it starts coming out of the little level check hole to the rear of the kicker lever. There's a bolt or something you remove, and while the bike is level, just add oil through the pushrod adj access cover until it starts to run out.
Also, don't worry about the rollers in the clutch hub. a little grease on ass'y will do the job. They only do work while the clutch is disengaged, so the grease should work just fine.
Tried to use the link in the email to the pics, and it didn't work// Would like to see the bike, I'm always interested in creative ventures!

First of all, I need to make something perfectly clear. I DO NOT COOK! The only reason that I have a kitchen is that it came with the house. It is full of cooking machines that simply confuse me. So, given this information, you may wonder why I am telling you about the kitchenettes at Accent Inns.
Well – I actually like to book a room with a kitchenette when I travel. Not because I am planning to create gourmet meals in my room BUT because I like to have fresh milk for my coffee, yoghurt for my breakfast and occasionally I like to make toast and fry an egg. In fact, I prefer to drink my coffee and eat my breakfast in my room while still in my PJs. (more…)

Rated 5 out of 5 by mrm0219 Love everything about this table It's true. The color is well done and even in texture, the wood is good quality and there are only 3 pieces that are incredibly easy to assemble. I have these set up as bedside tables, and they work perfectly. February 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jolisyeuxbleu Love it! I've had my eye on this table for quite some time now. Recently I finally had a place to put it as I was re-doing my home office. I placed this gem between two club chairs and love the look! The table arrived quickly, was packaged very well and was a breeze to put together. The color is rich and the table top is a nice size. Love it! Buy it, you wont regret it. January 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by okc.rem Love love love! This table is exactly as stated above and very easy to assemble. I would recommend it to anyone. April 17, 2012

Am buying an additional table to match the other bedside. Assembly was super easy - just hand screw in three pieces/parts and no tools needed! September 24, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ammy Great table at a good price This table couldn't have been easier to assemble: it comes in three pieces, and they just screw right on to one another. It's a bit taller than your average end table, so check the dimensions first. Very sturdy, great color and style, and exactly what we were looking for. April 25, 2011
