Lupe Fiasco - "The Show Goes On"
Latest News
Lupe Fiasco - "The Show Goes On"Posted byOctober 26, 2010Filed under:103
hah and i thought your shit couldnt get any better...this shits fire, but i need some "little weapon" type stuff as well on this new album. CANT WAIT
Uh uh.... no Lu..... don't give me a piece I want it all, lol. just kidding. I love the music Lu, can't wait for the rest!!!
this track feels good...its something to listen to while cleaning up the apartment or while ironing my clothes in the morning getting ready for school
i fucking love how he uses the chorus melody from "Float On" by Modest Mouse, it's such a strong, catchy melody. And incorporating other influences outside of hip hop (in this case, rock music) into his own creation, now that's just a smart songwriter.
dope song. lupe is ftw because he promotes mature ideas. i used to like rappers like wayne and drake (and can openly say that i still don't mind them), but once i heard food and liquor in '06, i realized that there's so much scope in hip hop that i had turned a shoulder to. lupe opened my eyes
I'm proud to be one of the new members of the Lupe Fiasco website. Normally I'm very busy, but now I've got more time to exercise my love and appreciation for the greatest rapper/hip hop artist of all time (yeah, I said it, let's argue), Lupe Fiasco! Just bought the new single three times, hoping that it will be BIG at whatever charts it lands on. I'm ready to buy for whatever new release comes from Lu, just like any dedicated and loyal fan.
Everyone is throwing around the term "mainstream" and doesn't know what it really means. Mainstream means that it has been accepted by popular culture and is widely known. If that's the case, WE WANT ARTISTS LIKE LUPE TO BE MAINSTREAM. The reason why "mainstream" has a bad connotation in the past is that record companies either force artists on us, making the radio play Soulja Boy 10x per hour, or an artist will Dumb It Down to reach a wider audience. The day I hear lupe rhyme about Gaza or child soldiers and have it be played constantly as a mainstream recording means that we will have won and the stupid commercial garbage will have lost. Before you call something mainstream, realize what it means. Mainstream isn't a sound, it's a designation. The question is are you going to make sure Lupe is designated mainstream, or some pretty-faced, ghost-written, fake "I'm hard", over produced rapper the record company wants to push? I'd like to propose a toast. (I said toast, motherf*****!) To Lupe! May he make it mainstream without ever Dumbing it Down!
I've been listening to this song heaps since it was released and I'm not gonna lie but it is perfect follow up for the shit that Lupe has had to go through with his label. Not only the name of the song but the contents and feel of it are damn inspirational and Lupe and his fanbase (all of YOU) have shown that those big label corporations can be taken on and give a positive result
This is sick, I have this on replay on my ipod can't get enough of Lupe. No need to worry that the whole album will be mainstream though; Just look to what he did with Kanye and Don't Look Down he's gonna mix it up and release the best album that the world has ever heard. FNF UP!
Seriously check out America`s Hottest NeoSoul/Pop Experience--->http://www.reverbnation.com/knueraent RT Please :-@
What makes the song different is Lupes originality. Asside from truly being the best raper alive right now lyrically, he is able to spit perfection even on a mainstream single. The man is a genius and he has inspired me ever since F&L, just an opinion :)
A Storm Is Coming by Miccheck hotnewhiphop.com/en/view-album/ via @HotNewHipHop download my Cd it's almost finish I been real busy in the studio with producing beatz and launching Acesbeatz.com so everyone can have quality beatz for their creativity.
I think this is a great song, with a great sample from Modest Mouse. It definitely elaborates the ideas in the original "Float On" and overall is very enjoyable. Modest Mouse + Fiasco FTW
Please Do Not Bash Me For MY OPINION!! But honestly the problem I have with the song is that it sounds too generic. If you want to interpret the word generic as "mainstream" go right ahead, but when I heard the beat and the hook I automatically thought, wow this sounds like every other song out right now. There wasn't anything that marked the sound of the song as special or different which is what I have come to expect from Lupe. To me the song sounded cookie cutter and wooden. Even the lyrics were sub-par for Fiasco standards. It isn't enough that Lupe just raps about stuff other than guns and girls and cars, the awesome part about Lu is that he usually does it with so much depth and skill. This sounded *GASP* Dumbed Down! This just sounds forced, like someone presented him with the beat and the hook and he knew that it was what Atlantic was looking for even though it didn't really fit his style of rap. I mean after hearing "Shining down" and "I'm Beaming" this is WEAK compared to them. Those songs both have a distinct sound that is nothing like what's on the radio or what anyone else is doing and I think those could have been huge hits had Atlantic given them a real chance to succeed. Is this song terrible NO! Does it fall in line with the LEVEL of "Daydream" "Kick Push" Superstar" or "Hip Hop Saved My Life"...NO! My only hope is that this song doesn't reflect the rest of the album which I doubt.KEEP THE MUSIC COMING LUPE!!!
I think some of yall r sweatin Fiasco too much, take a sec to step back and reassess this whole discussion. Before I get into it, Yea I'm a FAN OF HIS WORK. What does that mean? It means I'm a fan of his art that he puts out there, the music the videos and his ideas. That doesn't mean I warship him and hold unrealistic expectations he is still a person, he just is a cool creative dude. Definitely one of the best hip hop artist's out. A lot of these musical artists lose their head, yes its their fault but its also the fans as well. After all these artist's are still human and have their flaws, weaknesses and strengths. When you worship these people they can turn to monsters. Their EGOS can swell and their character can be distorted, you want to keep Lupe at his best? Don't just brainlessly follow any project he releases, or force yourself to love a new song. Keep it real, it will only make his work better. Don't freak out because some people don't like it. I think the track is DOPE, I've been waiting for a cat to sample a band like Modest Mouse. Once I heard that intro I knew. Thats real nice. As for the song. I really like it yea it does feel a bit main stream but why is that bad? Michael Jackson the greatest musical artist of our time was main stream. Thriller was like the perfect balance, that is possibly how every artist should strive to be like. Lupe's music can be mainstream and still excellent, mainstream just means more people will hear it. I like the track and I'm sure there will all kinds of good sound coming form this album. I'm expecting big things from Lasers. I look forward to hearing some new LU.
This song is too legit. A catchy hook still can make a bombass song. Look at Lupe talkin bout Gaza, and you say this shit don't make you think? Damn, yall haters up on his blog talkin bout how you want some deep shit, and you can't even recognize it when it slaps you in the eardrums. Yo listen up one good time for real before ya start criticizin. Lupe gonna change the game, that makes him a GREAT rapper..and yall compainin just 'cause you want someone side-stream to listen to. Bump that, be for real and quit hatin for the hell of it. Do yo thing Lupe, this song kicks the hell outta everything else out right now.
i think that March 8th 2011 should be known as "All LASERS DAY" or something of that nature (: post a better name idea if you have one
Finally a song that doesn't talk about sex, money, cars, hoes and all that other junk thats playin on the radio. Lupe went in and did his thing on this song. It may not be one of them ones that makes you think but still. You can't deny that this song is legit. Ya digg.
see kid fnf sees what im sayin, lil wayne drake nicki minaj all of them suck majorly but lu bob wiz khalifa and currensy are mainstream rappers bringin that new real sh**. sure wiz and currensy rap about weed alot but its different it aint the same lil wayne "i aint a human being" bull crap
everyone has to chill, and stop hatin'. this is just a single, and strictly a single. lasers is going to be epic, and i assure all of you that every song on it will keep yall thinking and thinking.

The Medici family dominated political and economic life in Florence, Italy, beginning in the late 14th century. One of Europe's wealthiest families, they ushered in the Renaissance with their widespread patronage of artists and architects such as Brunelleschi, Donatello, Michelangelo, and da Vinci. Their taste for opulence and luxury continues to influence styles throughout Europe even four centuries after the dynasty's end.
These jewels are inspired by ones seen in Medici family portraits in the Uffizi Gallery. The floral and medallion shapes, outlined in dozens of tiny pearls, emeralds, and rubies, are a classic Renaissance style. Each piece is handcrafted by a father and son team in Vicenza, a northern Italian city known for its gold and jewelry artistry as well as its famous buildings by late Renaissance architect Palladio.

For more than 40 years Ginnie Mae has been an incredible success story, highlighting the power of the federal government and the private sector working together. Over the years Ginnie Mae has guaranteed more than $4 trillion in mortgage-backed securities (MBS), providing home financing for more than 40 million Americans. And, because we understand that finding a home doesn't always mean buying a home, we have helped millions more find affordable rental housing.
And, we're just getting started!
As the only mortgage-backed securities in the market to carry the full faith and credit guaranty of the United States government, Ginnie Mae securities are enjoying unprecedented demand and continue to perform well.
Ginnie Mae Issuers benefit from knowing that a liquid market is always available for loans originated through the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the Rural Development (RD), and Public and Indian Housing (PIH) - and investors benefit from the knowledge that an investment in Ginnie Mae securities is among the safest in the world.

The construction of 3-Layer GORE-TEX® Products is unique. A 3-layer GORE-TEX® membrane is sandwiched between a soft outer material and a knit polyester backing material that increases durability. These garments keep you comfortable and protected from the elements without adding extra bulk or weight.
The GORE-TEX® membrane has 9 billion pores per square inch, with each pore 20,000 times smaller than a water droplet. These tiny holes are too small for water and wind to pass through from the outside. But these same pores are large enough for moisture vapor to pass through, so your body's perspiration is able to escape and you won't feel clammy or uncomfortable inside your jacket.

Wildwood Semi-Flush Mount Item # A4860
Arts & Crafts Semi-Flush Fixture
Customize This Product
To make shopping even easier, we've renamed some of our fixtures. They're now grouped into families so you can find coordinating pieces at a glance.
The Wildwood Semi-Flush Mount fixture adds a lovely Arts & Crafts touch to any room by gracing the ceiling with a trefoil canopy cast from a hand-carved mold.
When we first decided to reproduce this family of Arts & Crafts fixtures, we tried to duplicate the detailed design using 3-D computer modeling. Not surprisingly, the software wasn't subtle enough to get the deep grooves, beveled edges, and natural curves we wanted. So we turned to a time-tested method we knew would work: making them by hand.
- Formerly known as the Broadleaf
- Damp rated for covered outdoor use
- The ring on this fixture is fixed - not suitable for vaulted ceilings
- Compatible with 4" fitter shades
- Choose standard incandescent or energy-efficient GU24 sockets

Rated 5 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 5 out of 5 by ellen Beautiful Doormat We love color. Our last doormat was a flowered coir affair that faded almost as soon as the sun hit it. We took a chance on this door mat and I'm so glad we did. It's a gorgeous rich color that, at least on my computer, matches the photo exactly. And better still it matches our front door! It's very rich looking and we have received lots of compliments on it. Our home is contemporary in feel, but the classic brocade style will go with any home style. The mat hasn't faded in two months use and looks as good as new. We like it so much we just ordered a second one. January 29, 2013

Featured in Vallarta Lifestyles Magazine, Winter/Spring 2009 issue.
A veteran guest on various day cruise "party boats" around North America, I was ready for a change from that type of excursion, which often includes rowdy crowds, rushed itineraries and, frequently, unexpected charges in these alleged "all-inclusive" tours. So when I heard about Vallarta Adventures' "Marietas Eco-Discovery Tour," a true all-inclusive eco-adventure that includes bird watching and extended periods of snorkeling, sea kayaking and beaching at the picturesque Marietas Islands, I was eager to experience it myself.
In true Vallarta Adventures style, check-in was organized and efficient. By 9 am, our catamaran arrived from Nuevo Vallarta, and we were indulging in our breakfast before we had sailed out of the Marina. The menu included those delicious Mexican sweet breads I can't resist, fresh fruit, juice, coffee and bottled water.
About 9:30, Kimi, our effervescent, bilingual and 100% loco cruise director, officially welcomed us and started the fun. Kimi introduced the crewmembers one at a time, and each came out and danced for us in his own style. Even veteran Captain Pancho came out to "shake his booty." The efficient crew subsequently passed out snorkel gear to all who were interested.
The only activity with an additional charge was scuba diving. After the dive master met briefly with all divers onboard, Kimi followed with the snorkel briefing, articulately and humorously providing many valuable tips but concluding by sincerely stating, "The safety of guests is our main priority!"
We arrived at the Marietas by 10:45, and Kimi related fascinating facts about this UNESCO-protected ecological reserve. As we slowly cruised around the volcanic rock islands, we learned that they are home to 85 documented species of birds, including the rare Blue Footed Booby, as well as lizards, snakes, bats and even large rats that dive into the water to fish for their food. The limited vegetation on the islands includes a few species of grasses, cactus and a couple of palms.
The reef below the surface is filled with approximately 150 species of tropical fish and various other exotic creatures, including sea urchins, starfish, manta rays, seahorses and eels. Also living in these clear, aquamarine waters are four species of dolphins. And between the months of December and March, they are home to various species of whales, which use our calm bay as a breeding and birthing sanctuary.
Once Captain Pancho had us anchored, the snorkelers jumped into the water, guided by Christian on an interesting snorkel adventure. He emphasized a second time not to touch anything while underwater, since just brushing against coral causes it to die. It can take 100 years for coral to grow a couple of inches, so we need to be very respectful of the underwater ecosystem. While we were snorkeling, some guests stayed onboard or went sea kayaking, while others took a panga (motor boat) around the island to a beautiful, sandy, white beach. There was plenty of time to do any or all of the activities without feeling rushed.
A delicious and healthy buffet lunch was laid out onboard as the activities were winding down, which was enthusiastically enjoyed by everyone. On the way back to Vallarta, Kimi kept us entertained and the bar remained open.
We arrived back in the marina before 4 pm, after a fabulous day both on and in the water. And that was supposed to be the end of this story, but I was intrigued to learn that after taking a pool diving lesson, one can do a shallow one-tank dive at the Marietas accompanied by a certified dive instructor. So …
The following Thursday, I met Gustavo at the Buenaventura Hotel for my pool lesson. He provided a thorough briefing, ensuring I understood everything. Once I was comfortable breathing and maneuvering underwater, he had me clear my mask while below the surface, take out my mouthpiece and then put it back in my mouth to clear it – scary but necessary training! We both felt confident that I was ready to transfer my skills to an ocean dive in the company of trained professionals.
Three days later, I returned to the Marietas. There were six of us onboard who were new to diving and anticipating our first dive accompanied by our excellent dive master, Oswaldo. At one point during our first few minutes underwater, I almost chickened out, but took a deep breath and continued on with the group. And that's when I fell in love with diving!
The sights were spectacular, and I felt very safe with Oswaldo and my dive buddy, Vanya, who both were continually checking to make sure I was okay. We saw so many amazing sights! I even spied a Spotted Snake Eel, which seemed more scared of me than I was of him, to my relief. Our group did well for novices, so we explored underwater for 45 minutes at a depth of about 35 feet.
We were all exhilarated, proud and thirsty when we returned onboard, and Jose was waiting behind the bar with cold water and, of course, icy adult beverages. It was time to celebrate, and I decided at that moment to continue with my training and become a certified diver. And if I can do it, anyone can!
So, whether it's bird watching, diving, snorkeling, kayaking, visiting a virgin beach or simply enjoying a completely all-inclusive day on the water, being pampered at every step, the Vallarta Adventures Eco-Discovery Tour is an excellent way to really "sea" Vallarta! www.vallarta-adventures.com.

Power of the Purse
THE PARTY Arm candy galore beckoned L.A.'s leading fashionistas and philanthropists for an afternoon of shopping at the home of Meredith Kaplan, all in the name of raising money for arts education in underserved communities. THE SCENE Lured by the sight of tables piled high with fresh-from-the-runway bags by the likes of Alexander McQueen, Chloé, Chanel, Bruno Magli and YSL, more than 200 charity-minded shoppers including event founders George Kotsiopoulos and Elizabeth Stewart flocked to the Beverly Hills estate to place their bids. Also on hand for the occasion was local design maven Clare Vivier, whose vividly hued goods could be spotted in the mix. Lisa Kudrow was spied snapping up a John Varvatos piece, while fellow actor Kristin Davis vied for a Givenchy number. More than $150,000 was raised, with 240 items up for auction. THE HIGHLIGHTS The bag theme continued throughout the afternoon, as guests sprawled throughout the gardens and enjoyed brown-bag lunches paired with mini Pressed Juicery refreshments.

Our now 4-year old has been our little Super Cooper since the day he was born so when he requested a Super Hero 4th birthday party it was a natural choice. The bold colors of red, blue, yellow and green and the high energy of super heroes fits our son perfectly. He doesn't have a favorite super hero (and besides, he's one of a kind! :) so I didn't focus on any specific super hero but tried to incorporate some general super hero traits and characteristics into the party.
Though I kept it generic, I couldn't resist using the iconic Superman badge on the cups, the cake and the cookies. I saw some super hero cups on Pinterest (via Etsy) that inspired these DIY Super Power Smoothie cups…and ultimately guided my brainstorming to adding a cape to the Super Cooper cake. Foam stickers were easy to cut and worked great for making the badge on the the cups and tissue paper made nice capes. Inside the badge is the perfect place to label the cups with initials or names for the party guests.
The Super Cooper cake was the centerpiece of the table. I have worked very little with fondant. In fact, this is only the 2nd fondant cake that I've made and the first one that I've shared outside of family. I've never been a big fan of fondant for taste but I have grown to love it for the fact that you can get exact colors to match your theme and then peel it off without consuming the artifical food dyes. A sugar cookie Super Cooper badge and red tissue paper cape were the finishing touches for the cake.
The Super Cooper cookies were an easy addition. I didn't have a cookie cutter so I cut out a paper pattern and used a pizza cutter to cut out each cookie.
My son loves cake pops so I used some extra cupcakes to make basic cake pops, decorated with the coordinating red and blue sprinkles. I filled a blue baking dish with decorative rocks and stuck the cake pops into the rocks.
His favorite candy is CRUNCH bars, which kind of fits the super hero theme, so they were a great decoration to cover the decorative rocks in the caramel corn and cake pop displays.
Caramel POPcorn was another fitting dessert filler. I rolled paper into cones and stuck the caramel corn cones in a vase filled with decorative rocks topped with CRUNCH bars.
Cranberry PUNCH fit the color theme and was a nice beverage option for kids and adults. We also offered SUPER MAMA-tinis, Prosecco-spiked cranberry punch because all of the moms deserve a break, too!

Reviews for Black Cherry Cake
"I love this cake! It works with any fruit yogurt and for added flavor I add frozen fruit to the batter. I have to I don't use fat free anything. Real whipped cream regular yogurt the whole nine yards. And because a never have cake mix on hand, I looked up the dry ingredients in a cake recipe and made sure to add the vanilla too. It works out awesome!"
"I have made this cake twice and this last time I wanted more of a cherry taste so in place of the water I added dark cherry soda and oh my what a pretty pink I got and more of a cherry taste love this cake."
"I've made this cake several times using the black cherry yogurt; last night I tried it with peach yogurt, and it was also a hit with the family. I used low-fat yogurt, as that is all that the grocery store had in stock, and regular frozen whipped topping. I plan on trying this with other yogurt flavors as well."
"Thanks to the previous suggestion, I used (3) 6 oz containers of black cherry yougurt, and added 1-1/2 containers to the cake mix and 1-1/2 containers to the frosting. The black cherry flavor was delicious! I received compliments from many on this yummy cake. -Lori in WI."
"This is one of the best summer dessert I have ever made, and so easy. For the person who said that the frosting did not turn out pink, I use 3 black cherry yogurts. I put 1 1/2 in cake batter and 1 1/2 in the cool whip. It adds a little more color and more of the black cherry flavor."

Rated 5 out of 5 by cottagegal Very cute and love the hooks Perfect addition for the uplifting laundry room I am trying to create! The hooks are are handy not just for hanging small delicates but for corralling certain things you may find in pockets, keys on rings, etc. June 2, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dian Just great for my laundry room! After traveling through the mail, two of the pegs were loose. I just put them back with some glue and it was good to go! Its adorable, I'm thinking I may spray paint it my favorite color! August 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Happy New Home I think this is super cute. I purchased this item and can't wait to hang it in my new LAUNDRY room. What a great find, love the idea of hanging delicates on the hooks. April 4, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by pugmom1 Laundry Wall Hook I love the wall hook. It looks very cute hanging above my laundry sink, and it is nice to be able to air dry my bras and delicates on the hooks. When I received the item one of the letters had a large chip in it. But I didn't want to spend the $9.50 return postage to send it back. So, I fixed the chip with some wood putty, sand paper, and a little matching paint. You cant tell that there was a chip in it now and I'm happy with it. If the there would have been "free" return shipping I would have exchanged it. But it all worked out in the end with a little work and creativity. February 8, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by callie47 laundry sign JUST RECIEVED MY LAUNDRY SIGN WAS DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SIZE LARGER THEN THE INFORMATION ON THE ITEM. WAS UNDER THE UNDERSTANDING AROUND 29" AND IT IS 36 1/4"WIDE WHICH IS TO BIG FOR THE SPACE BY THE DOOR. SO, NOW, I HAVE A COAT RACK THAT IS TO WIDE FOR WHERE I WANT TO PUT IT. AS FAR AS RECOMMEND IF YOU HAVE A SPACE ON YOUR WALL THAT IT WILL FIT AND YOU LIKE IT IT MAY WORK FOR YOU. January 13, 2014

Senate Mulls Curbs on FDA Financial Ties
The full Senate on Wednesday may vote on a measure that would restrict the Food and Drug Administration�s ability to hire outside advisers with financial ties to regulated companies. The amendment, sponsored by Senators Richard Durbin (D-IL) and Jeff Bingaman (D-NM), would limit conflict-of-interest waivers to one per meeting; prohibit that person from voting; and spell out procedures for the FDA to follow to identify non-conflicted experts for its more than 30 outside panels, whose advice the agency usually follows. About a quarter of all appointees in recent years have had some financial involvement: owning stock; consulting agreements; serving on speakers bureaus' with firms with a stake in the outcome of the advisory committees' proceedings. Readers who wish to contact their Senators to support the Durbin-Bingaman amendment can find email links here.
The amendment is being offered to a bill that reauthorizes prescription drug user fees, which now account for nearly half of the FDA's budget for approving new drugs. Critics of the overall bill, including a group of more than 30 physicians and scientists who signed this letter, letter, say the faster approvals tied to the industry user fees have led to greater drug safety problems and shortchanged the agency's safety surveillance system.
However, the user fee reauthorization bill, sponsored by Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) and Michael Enzi (R-WY), does devote additional resources to monitoring the safety of drugs once they're on the market; gives the public greater access to clinical trial data; requires companies to come up with plans for monitoring the side effects and adverse events from drugs once on the market; and gives scientists at the FDA more freedom to raise objections to agency decisions or publish their findings in the medical literature. On the other hand, the Senate rejected allowing Americans the right to import cheaper medicines from abroad. And a last-minute amendment limiting the FDA's ability to restrict direct-to-consumer advertising, which had been pushed by broadcasters and publishers, passed with bipartisan support.
Stanford and UC May Kick Big Tobacco Off Campus
Stanford and the University of California later this month may institute a ban on researchers taking money from tobacco companies or their affiliated non-profits. The University of California Board of Regents will consider a system-wide ban on May 17. The Stanford faculty will vote on a similar resolution the same day. If adopted, the measures will mark the first time an entire research institution has cut its ties to the tobacco industry. Medical schools at Harvard and Johns Hopkins have adopted similar bans.
According to the San Jose Mercury News, only one Stanford researcher still takes money from Big Tobacco. John P. Cooke, director of vascular medicine and biology at the medical school, receives several hundred thousand dollars annually from the Philip Morris Foundation to study nicotine's enhancement of blood vessel growth or angiogenesis. Though it accounts for 20 percent of his research budget, Cooke has agreed to stop taking money from the foundation in June when the current grant expires. All U.C. branches receive a total of $15.9 million from 19 grants.
Last August, federal district court Judge Gladys Kessler in the District of Columbia forced the dissolution of two of the industry's long-time research foundations, the Council for Tobacco Research and the Center for Indoor Air Research, which were identified as part of a 40-year conspiracy to obscure the health risks of tobacco. Philip Morris has reinstituted a direct grants program to continue funding academic research, according to anti-tobacco activists
Interior Official Who Fed Industry Inside Info Resigns . . .
The Interior Department's Julie MacDonald has resigned one month after the agency's inspector general issued a scathing report alleging that she leaked sensitive information to industry and bullied environmental scientists into making their research fit her policies. MacDonald resigned on the same day that Sen. Ron Wyden announced that he would block the White House's nominee to run the Fish and Wildlife Service, Lyle Laverty, until allegations against MacDonald were addressed. Environmental advocates expressed fears that MacDonald's resignation would not end industry's control over the agency's enforcement of the Endangered Species Act. "MacDonald was the administration's attack dog, not its general," a Center for Biological Diversity staffer told the New York Times.
. . . While Scientists Protest Interior's Endangered Species Rule
More than three dozen environmental scientists are protesting a Bush administration interpretation of the Endangered Species Act that will sharply curtail its enforcement, the Associated Press reports. Interior Department solicitor David Bernhardt recently ruled that a species will only be considered endangered if its numbers are significantly declining in currently inhabited areas. The ruling will allow the department to claim it is obeying the law if it keeps the remnants of a species intact somewhere. It would put the government out of the business of returning endangered species to areas where people drove them out, according to John Vucetich, a wildlife biologist at Michigan Technological University who helped organize the protest letter.
Odds and Ends
A federal judge says the First Amendment trumps privacy rights in voiding a 2006 New Hampshire law that made physicians' prescription-writing habits confidential. The ruling by Judge Paul J. Barbadoro came in a suit brought by IMS Health and Verispan, which collect the data and sell it to drug manufacturers. . . Eli Lilly & Co. has released a detailed report on the grants the drug maker gives to nonprofit groups and educational institutions.
Cheers and Jeers

On the video for the opening track to Márcio Local's album Márcio Local Says, "Don Day Don Dree Don Don": Adventures In Samba Soul, he takes us on the perfect trip through Brazil: beach-side bliss, Carnival, football, sunshine, sunsets, and the lush countryside.
Márcio Local stands at the crossroads of two great traditions in modern Brazilian music, with one foot in samba, the heavily percussive Afro-Brazilian dance music that took its modern form in the early twentieth century, and the other in soul, the African American music rooted in the blues that attracted a mass audience in Brazil in the 1960s and 1970s.
The album is out May 12th on Luaka Bop. More Info

Reviews for Refreshing Orange Ice
"Our family has a Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner tradition that is very similar; we just don't use the half & half. This sounds yummy too!"
"This tasted good but it took a long time to freeze. It took me two days before I could eat it! I had to freeze it then thaw it then freeze it again."
"Wow! This was a hit! I made this for a church youth rally of about 400 people. Everyone was asking for the recipe. When I made it, I did not wait until the mixture was fully frozen before adding the half and half. I just waited until it was cooled enough not to curdle the cream. I served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and poured a touch of 7-up over it. Delicious and refreshing on a hot summer day! Looks like this will be a YouthStock tradition!"
"Couldn't resist. A secret in our kitchens....for a easy vanilla sauce...simply let a rich full bodied ice cream melt! Simply do the same as the picture displayed with this recipe...the only difference - have the bottom covered with the secret vanilla sauce!"
"ehlm, You could add vanilla ice cream into the recipe but it would change the consistency of it. Being a retired chef, might I recommend that you take a mini scoop and make ice cream balls - place on a cookie sheet and freeze a few days in advance of your bunco group for ease. When frozen, simply move to a storage container or large ziploc. Artfully arrange mediums balls of orange ice with the smaller ice cream balls with a slight drizzle of dark chocolate sauce in clear/footed glasses for eye appeal as well!"

alright let us discuss this popular talking point
people who use this say that human nature is inherently selfish/competitive(which is not entirely true ... western culture is because living conditions in europe were a lot more harsh than they were in a tropical island or something. there are plenty of cooperative cultures but anyway) and therefore they will seek money. but money is not some kind of completely separate entity that human nature seeks in and of itself. its psychologically represents something. it represents social standing and the ability to obtain a mate. human nature seeks social standing and the ability to mate - money is just, in our current culture, which represents this. it could theoretically be represented by anything.
so, say we are in a socialist society. some scientist discovers the CURE FOR DEATH. in a capitalist country he could sell this for a shitload of money, which will give him social standing and a better chance of finding a desirable mate. but if it were in a socialist country he wouldn't get any money - but in a socialist culture, which would value cooperation and good deeds, the respect he gains could give him social standing and boost his chance of finding a desirable mate just as much as money could. it accomplishes the same thing, people will still want to do meritorious things due to the competitive and selfish side of human nature, but for something different than money, but which psychologically works in pretty much the same way. the only difference is, to get this kind of social respect which works in the same way as money, you would actually have to do something which benefits society, rather than, in a capitalist culture, being able to get money by doing shit like accounting tricks to fool investors into putting their money into a shitty company, embezzling money, and enslaving third world countries for profit. good thing right?

Team Will pedaled through town on Monday, June 25. They stopped at Salt Lake City's local children's hospital to bring smiles to some of the youngsters who are battling cancer. In an effort to raise awareness for the illness, the group of 20 cyclists are riding from San Francisco to Boston, taking 10 days to cross 16 states and visit hospitals along the way.
The team brings a handful of gifts to each hospital, one of the most valuable being an encouraging card from another child. Through their Cards for Kids program, Team Will is able to give cheerful greetings from around the world to the children they visit.
In addition to raising the spirits of the kids, Team Will is working hard to raise $125,000 for the Foundation for Children with Cancer. The money will be contributed to families in need.
"In most cases, a lot of the kids are being treated in a city that's not theirs and that's an added burden for the family," says Tom Weissgerber, Training Coordinator for Team Will. He adds 43 percent of the time a parent who has a child with cancer will quit his or her job to dedicate time to caring for them.
The members of Team Will don't think of themselves as heroes. Instead, that title goes to the children. "We look at them as heroes because of what they're going through and because of their strength," Weissgerber says.
"Riding cross country is an athletic challenge, but after the first hospital visit it becomes about the kids," Weissgerber says. A fellow rider, Tony Reyes chimes in, "It becomes a competition to see who can fundraise the most," he says.
Reyes is riding with Team Will for the first time and he's been enjoying spending time with the children they visit in hospitals. "If you make a connection, they start talking to you and you see them glow," he says.

Current Price Topics: The Price Competitiveness of U.S. Exports
Price is a key factor affecting the competitiveness of U.S. exports. When the prices of U.S. exports fall relative to the prices of similar products produced in other countries, the demand for U.S. exports grows. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) releases price indexes each month that show the average price movement for exports. These indexes measure items in U.S. dollar terms which, in effect, show the average price change that U.S. exporters receive for their products. Another factor that should be analyzed is the price competitiveness of U.S. exports. From the point of view of a buyer in a foreign country, how the price of U.S. exports changes in foreign currency terms is more relevant than how the price changes in U.S. dollar terms. The price trend for U.S. exports in any given foreign currency can differ from the price trend in U.S. dollar terms, depending on how the value of the U.S. dollar varies relative to that currency. For example, a buyer in Canada may purchase a U.S. item that increases 5 percent in U.S. dollar terms. However, if the Canadian dollar rises by 10 percent compared with the U.S. dollar over the same period, in Canadian dollar terms, the item is actually 5 percent cheaper.
Export prices in U.S. dollar terms have risen 3.6 percent since the beginning of 2009. When viewed from the perspective of a broad range of foreign buyers, U.S. exports were on average 2.2 percent cheaper in March 2010 than they were in January 2009. (See chart 1.) So despite the fact that exports were getting more expensive in U.S. dollar terms, they were more price competitive from the perspective of many purchasers of those exports.
An examination of how the U.S. dollar has moved since the beginning of 2009 could provide some insight on why the U.S. dollar price of exports has so differed from the foreign currency index over the same period. Continuing an upward trend dating from the second half of 2008, the U.S. dollar rose in value against the trade-weighted basket of major currencies through March 2009. The global financial crises that began in mid-2008 led investors to favor the relative safety of U.S. Treasury bills, thus pushing the value of the U.S. dollar up. From March through the remainder of 2009, the U.S. dollar reversed trend and lost approximately 12 percent of its value against most major currencies. Although the U.S. dollar has remained stable against most major currencies through the early months of 2010, it has risen relative to the euro, thus pushing the trade-weighted value of the U.S. dollar up overall. (See chart 2.)
The impact of the movement of the U.S. dollar can be seen in the foreign currency index of U.S. export prices. Over the first 4 months of 2009 the U.S. dollar price of exports was virtually unchanged; however, the rising value of the U.S. dollar over the same period resulted in export prices in foreign currency terms rising 3.4 percent. Since April 2009, foreign currency export prices have declined 5.4 percent even though export prices rose 4.0 percent in U.S. dollar terms.
So, did more competitive export prices have an impact on the demand for U.S. export goods? Over the first 4 months of 2009, the U.S. dollar value of U.S. exports declined. (See chart 3.) From April through the end of 2009, however, when the price of exports was falling in foreign currency terms, the value of U.S. export goods increased 24.0 percent. The change in the value of the U.S. dollar was not the only variable that influenced the demand for U.S. exports, of course. Improved economic conditions following the global downturn at the end of 2008 also were a factor, but worth noting is that the value of U.S. exports leveled off in January and February 2010 as the U.S. dollar has increased against a trade-weighted average of major currencies.
At present, U.S. export price indexes are only published in U.S. dollar terms. In order to look at U.S. export prices from a foreign currency perspective, as was done in this analysis, some measure of exchange rates is necessary to convert the U.S. dollar price index, produced by BLS, into foreign currency terms. This analysis made use of data produced by the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve produces a trade weighted exchange rate index between the U.S. dollar and a set of major currencies (defined as currencies that circulate outside the country of issue.) The Federal Reserve's index is weighted by both U.S. export shares and a combination of U.S. and foreign import shares; in the absence of a pure exportweighted exchange rate index, the Federal Reserve's major currencies index allows for a useful estimate of a U.S. export price index in foreign currency terms. The U.S. export price index in foreign currency terms is derived by taking the U.S. dollar price index multiplied by the exchange rate index divided by 100. [1] When the value of the U.S. dollar falls, U.S. exports on average get cheaper. Likewise, a rising U.S. dollar will mean that U.S. exports become relatively more expensive.
Deriving aggregate U.S. export prices in terms of a basket of foreign currencies is a relatively simple and useful exercise that is possible using the price data produced by BLS and exchange rate information from the Federal Reserve. But such analysis of U.S. export price competitiveness could be greatly expanded by looking at detailed product areas. For example, an in-depth study of the price of U.S. automobiles in foreign currency terms might add insight to how export share expansion could help the troubled industry recover. What would be needed is an average exchange rate index weighted by the trade partners for U.S. automobile exports. That index could then be multiplied by the respective U.S. dollar price index. Presently, such indexes are not produced anywhere, but in the future, the addition of average exchange rate indexes by product area could lead to a better measurement of the price competitiveness of U.S. exports in an increasingly globalized economy.
Current Price Trends: Quarterly Price Highlights
Import Prices
Import prices rose 1.8 percent in the first quarter of 2010, continuing an upward trend dating back to the first quarter of 2009. Prices for overall imports in March 2010 rose 11.4 percent compared to the same period a year ago and have been rising on a 12-month basis since November 2009. (See chart 4.)
Approximately 74 percent of the first quarter advance in import prices was attributable to a 6.2-percent increase in fuel prices, which rose two of the 3 months in the quarter. Nonfuel prices also rose over the 3 months ended in March, but at a comparatively modest 0.6 percent. The price index for nonfuel imports advanced 2.7 percent between March 2009 and March 2010 after declining on a 12-month basis for most of 2009.
Fuel Import Prices
Fuel prices rose 6.2 percent between December 2009 and March 2010. The advance was driven by a 6.5-percent jump in petroleum prices, which accounted for more than 96 percent of the overall increase. The world demand for oil rose on a yearly basis in the fourth quarter of 2009, reversing a 5-quarter downward trend; that growth continued into the early months of 2010. The increase was largely driven by a sharp jump in petroleum demand from China, which in January recorded a 28.0-percent jump, compared with January 2009. In addition, there are expectations that China will be building up its strategic reserves with petroleum prices at the current level. [2] The International Energy Agency forecasted in their March 12th report that world petroleum demand will grow 1.8 percent in 2010 after falling 1.4 percent in 2009, with fully a third of the demand growth coming from China. While overall world petroleum demand has turned up in recent months, demand from the United States and Europe remains sluggish. In addition, the supply of oil rose in the first quarter of 2010. Although OPEC reaffirmed the production quotas set in December 2008 when they met on March 17th, compliance with the quotas has fallen to just 50 percent compared with 82 percent a year ago. [3] OPEC production hit a 14-month high in February before falling off slightly at the end of the first quarter. [4] Beyond the fundamentals, another factor for petroleum prices rising the first 3 months of 2010 was strong investment demand for oil. Investor demand for petroleum futures rose in anticipation of economic recovery in the U.S. and Europe leading to renewed fuel demand. [5] In addition, petroleum, like other commodities, is perceived as a store of value to protect investors against inflation and a long-term drop in the value of the U.S. dollar.
Higher natural gas prices also contributed to the overall increase in fuel prices, rising 4.7 percent over the first quarter. The index recorded a 19.6 percent spike the first 2 months of 2010 after cold and snowy weather conditions led to an increase in the demand for heating fuels. The increase in natural gas prices during the first 2 months of the year was tempered by a 12.4-percent drop in March that reflected that natural gas reserves remained 10.8 percent higher than the 5-year average. [6]
Nonfuel Import Prices
Excluding fuel, import prices advanced 0.6 percent over the first quarter of 2010, continuing an upward trend for the index dating back to April 2009. The largest contributor to the overall rise in nonfuel import prices was nonfuel industrial supplies and materials prices. (See chart 5.) As was the case in 2009, prices for unfinished metals led the way in the first quarter of 2010, rising 4.7 percent. The types of metals driving the increases differed, however. The 19.3-percent increase in unfinished metal prices in 2009 was led by sharp advances in gold, copper, and other precious metal prices in a reaction to the drop in the value of the U.S. dollar in 2009. For the first quarter of 2010, the increase was mostly led by a 7.5-percent increase in aluminum prices. Demand from China, the world's largest consumer of aluminum, is expected to increase at least 20 percent in 2010 according to the Aluminum Corporation of China Ltd. [7] Aluminum prices did turn down the final month of the quarter, falling 3.1 percent in March.
A 3.3-percent increase in chemicals prices and a 6.0 percent advance in building materials prices also helped push up the price index for nonfuel industrial supplies and materials in the first quarter of 2010. An 11.4-percent jump in fertilizer prices, which fell 20.5 percent in 2009, drove the rise in chemical prices and was due in part to higher demand as buyers sought to replenish stocks in advance of the spring planting season. [8] Higher natural gas prices also helped push up fertilizer prices because natural gas is a key input for producing ammonia, which in turn is used to produce nitrogen-based fertilizers. Building materials prices rose in January and February due to poor weather impeding logging, which led to a reduced lumber supply. In March, U.S. wholesalers sought to replenish their stocks in anticipation of increased demand from builders with the improved conditions. [9] The earthquake in Chile on February 27th also affected world lumber prices as much of their forest products industry suffered damage from the earthquake. [10]
A 2.3-percent increase in foods, feeds, and beverages prices was a contributing factor to the overall price advance in nonfuel prices from December 2009 to March 2010. Higher prices for import vegetables, meat, and fruit, up 14.2 percent, 9.0 percent, and 6.7 percent, respectively, in the first quarter of 2010 all factored into the increase.
Finished goods prices were mixed for the quarter ending in March. Capital goods prices and prices for automotive vehicles fell 0.5 percent and 0.6 percent, respectively over the 3 months while consumer goods prices rose 0.4 percent. The rise of the value of the U.S. dollar, which increased 4.1 percent against a trade-weighted basket of major currencies between November 2009 and February 2010, put downward pressure on all finished goods prices. In addition, import prices for computers, peripherals, and semiconductors fell 1.4 percent, led primarily by a 3.2-percent drop in semiconductor prices. The one notable exception to the declining price trend among finished goods was the price index for medicinal, dental, and pharmaceutical prices, which rose 2.7 percent in the first quarter and led the increase in consumer goods prices.
Export Prices
Export prices increased 0.9 percent the first quarter of 2010, the fourth consecutive quarter the index recorded an advance. On a 12-month basis, export prices rose 4.6 percent, the largest year-over-year increase since export prices rose 7.0 percent from September 2007 to September 2008. (See chart 6.) The increase in export prices the first quarter of 2010 was entirely led by a 1.0 percent advance in nonagricultural export prices. In contrast, agricultural prices edged down 0.4 percent for the quarter ended in March 2010 following a 5.0-percent increase in the final quarter of 2009. Agricultural prices continued to rise on a 12-month basis, increasing 8.2 percent for the March 2009-10 period.
Agricultural Export Prices
Agricultural export prices declined 0.4 percent overall for the quarter ended in March. The decrease was led by lower grain prices, which fell sharply in February. Soybean prices decreased 8.4 percent for the quarter, a drop that was driven by an 11.6-percent decline in February. Export demand for soybeans remains strong, but an increase in the world supply of soybeans, largely the result of record production out of Brazil, is pushing prices down. [11] Wheat and corn prices also fell in the first quarter of 2010. Wheat prices fell 8.5 percent overall as global wheat supplies have risen. [12] Corn prices decreased 3.0 percent between December 2009 and March 2010 as larger foreign supplies of corn have increased the competition for, and subsequent reduction of, U.S. exports. Increased production from Argentina and South Africa were factors in the increased world corn output. [13]
In contrast, meat and nut prices rose in the first quarter of 2010, largely offsetting the falling grain prices. The export price index for meat, poultry, and other edible animal products rose 7.4 percent for the December 2009�March 2010 period. Leading the increase was pork prices, which have risen as the supply of pork in the U.S. has decreased. There was a 3-percent drop in U.S. hog inventories the first 2 months of 2010, and a 4-percent drop in hog births over the past year could lead to further supply reduction in the future. [14] Export nut prices also rose in the first quarter of 2010, recording an 18.5 percent increase driven by a 15.0-percent jump in January. Growing Chinese demand for almonds, walnuts, and pecans drove the increase. [15]
Nonagricultural Export Prices
Nonagricultural export prices increased 1.0 percent for the quarter ended in March. The rise was led by a 3.1-percent advance in nonagricultural industrial supplies and materials prices, although finished goods prices were also up for the quarter. (See chart 7.) Higher chemical and fuel prices were the main contributors to the first quarter advance. Chemical prices advanced 4.0 percent because of a sharp jump in fertilizer prices and an increase in natural gas prices. Fuel prices advanced 4.1 percent over the past 3 months, with both rising fuel oil prices and prices for other petroleum products�which includes gasoline�factoring into the increase. Cold temperatures in much of the U.S. played a part in the advance in fuel oil prices.
Each of the major finished goods areas rose in the first quarter of 2010, but by modest amounts compared to the increase in nonagricultural industrial supplies and materials prices. Capital goods prices ticked up 0.1 percent between December 2009 and March 2010 as a 1.9-percent increase in transportation equipment prices more than offset declining prices for computers, semiconductors, and peripherals. The price index for computers, semiconductors, and peripherals fell 0.9 percent for the quarter despite a 0.6-percent increase in March. Export prices for automotive vehicles and consumer prices also increased for the December 2009�March 2010 period, rising 0.5 percent and 0.3 percent, respectively.
International Services Indexes
Both import air passenger fares and export air passenger fares declined between December 2009 and March 2010 despite increases in March. Import air passenger fares decreased 1.6 percent, led by a 10.0-percent drop in Asian fares over the 3-month period. Export air passenger fares decreased 3.0 percent, a decline that was driven by a 3.1-percent drop in European fares. The first quarter is generally regarded as the low season when fares typically decline. Prices rebounded in March in response to increasing fuel prices. Notwithstanding the first quarter declines, import air passenger fares rose 11.0 percent for the year ended in March and export air passenger fares increased 6.8 percent over the same period. In addition to higher fuel prices, rising air travel demand and fewer seats contributed to the increasing price trend for air passenger fares. [16]
Import air freight prices fell 4.8 percent for the first quarter of 2010. The decrease was driven by the rising value of the U.S. dollar in recent months which had a greater impact than rising fuel prices. In contrast, export air freight prices increased 1.2 percent over the same period.

[1] The average exchange rate index used to convert U.S. dollar price indexes into foreign currency indexes are lagged a month. The U.S. dollar price indexes have a reference period that is the first of the month. Therefore the price index for January measures price change from December 1st to January 1st. The appropriate exchange rate to use to convert that into foreign currency terms is then the average exchange rate for the month prior to the reference period. The price index for January would be converted using the average exchange rate over December.

STAB (standing for Same-type attack bonus) gives a damage boost to attacks that are the same type as the Pokémon using the move. This boost increases the damage done by 50%. This boost can become 100% instead when a Pokémon has Adaptability as its natural Ability.
For example, a Fire-type Pokémon using a Fire-type move will gain a 50% boost because the attack is the same element as a Pokémon. STAB does not apply to moves that do a set amount of damage nor ones that do not use the normal damage formula, such as Dragon Rage and Seismic Toss.
Normal-type Pokémon
Normal-type Pokémon also receive STAB, contradicting some of Nintendo's strategy guides.
Dual-type Pokémon
Dual-type Pokémon also receive STAB if the move type is the same to one of their types. Therefore, a Pidgey will receive STAB from Aerial Ace and Tackle.
