The burning of coal in the process of generating electricity, leads to the production of solid waste such as the fly ash and bottom ash. Numerous studies had been carried out to determine the mechanical properties of fly ash and also bottom ash. An extension of these studies is necessary in order to explore further usage of these ashes, in particular when mixed together in optimum percentage. The critical state boundary surface of the soil or material is important to identify the limit of stress imposed from various stress level and stress history. Hence, this study aimed at developing the critical state boundary surface of a mixture of 60% fly ash and 40% bottom ash by weight, is vital. The results obtained could be used as a guideline when working in the future with coal ash mixture of the same mix ratio. The samples used in this study were collected from Tanjung Bin power station in Johor, Malaysia. The fly ash-bottom ash mixture used in this study had a liquid limit of about 22% and behaved as non-plastic material. The mixture is classified as well-graded sandy silt with specific gravity of about 2.36. From the compaction test it showed that the maximum dry unit weight of this mixture is 14.54 kN/m3, achieved at 8.5% optimum water content. The critical state parameters of the mixture obtained in this study are ?= 0.032, ? = 0.013, ?=0.035, N=1.85 and M=1.152. From the critical state parameters obtained, the critical state boundary surface of fly ash- bottom ash mixture (60:40% by weight) had been established

College Hockey:Controversy, Stoppages Don't Hinder Maine
Black Bears Gain Momentum, Schutte Leads Win Over Friars
ORONO, Maine — Friday night's Hockey East game at Alfond Arena between Maine and Northeastern had just about everything. Fantastic goals, heavy hits, some controversy, and, to top things off, a 10-minute delay to clean up ammonia leaking from a broken pipe under the ice around the Northeastern net in the third period. After the Zamboni cleaned it, play was stopped three more times to squeegee the area.
"Bruce [Crowder] and I had a good laugh afterwards, because this game had a lot of stoppages and crazy calls," Maine coach Tim Whitehead said.
But while hockey was played, the Maine Black Bears used a two-goal, two-assist performance by Michael Schutte to defeat the Northeastern Huskies 8-4.
"This game was really important for us," Schutte said. "The guys worked really hard and executed the game plan."
"It's important to get Schutter playing well," Whitehead said. "He was grittier on loose pucks and he moved his feet well. We need him healthy and playing at his best."
Due to injury to Todd Jackson, Colin Shields moved up to play with Schutte and Martin Kariya, something Schutte thought was important,
"Those guys can only make you better," he said. It showed early on.
Schutte scored the first goal of the game only 4:15 in. Defenseman Paul Lynch took a slap shot from the left point that was deflected to the front. Schutte was skating through the slot unattended and found the puck on his stick. He moved to his backhand and beat Mike Gilhooly easily to the glove side to make it 1-0 Maine.
Chris Lynch tied the game 11:21 when he poked in a loose rebound. Matt Yeats stopped Jim Fahey's wraparound attempt, but was run into by a few players. As he tried to reach for the loose rebound, Lynch whacked at it and knocked it in.
Paul Lynch put the Black Bears back on top just under four minutes later on a soft goal. He dug out a Kariya pass along the boards and threw a high shot toward the net. Gilhooly leaped for it and it deflected off his left arm and into the goal at 15:12. It was Lynch's first collegiate goal.
At the start of the second period, Northeastern coach Bruce Crowder lifted Gilhooly in favor of Jason Braun, the second consecutive start that Gilhooly has been pulled.
The move appeared to ignite the Huskies as they tied things at 4:10 of the second. Joe Mastronardi took a feed from Jaron Harriman on the doorstep and beat Yeats with a one-timer.
Maine quickly took the lead back as another freshman scored his first career goal. Jon Jankus picked up a turnover just beyond the Northeastern blue line. He skated to the top of the right faceoff circle and ripped a slapper that beat Braun high to the glove side at 5:16.
The tying goal came with some controversy. Early in a Northeastern power play, Kariya was forechecking Mastronardi in front of the net when Braun took down Kariya. Referee Jim Fitzgerald let the play go on, allowing Mastronardi to hit Harriman with a break-out pass, sending him in alone on Yeats. He got his right pad on it, but the forehander still got through at 9:15, sending the Maine fans and players into a tirade.
The Black Bears were promptly given a two-man advantage less than two minutes later, but could not score. After the kill, the Huskies took their first lead of the game, and it looked like momentum had swung their way.
Tim Judy got a slapshot on Yeats that he couldn't hang onto. Ryan Dudgeon collected the rebound, but his shot deflected off Yeats over to a waiting Eric Ortlip, who buried the puck in the open net at 14:34, giving Northeastern the 4-3 lead.
Maine's tying goal came on some controversy as well. Bruan made a save on a Shields shot, but left a rebound to his left in the low slot. Schutte pounced on it as he was being held by a defenseman. His shot beat Braun and just snuck inside the far post as the net came off the mooring. The goal light came on and Fitzgerald emphatically ruled the play a goal, so things were tied at four with 4:11 left in the second.
A rare Fahey turnover only seconds later led to a breakaway for Maine and a chance to retake the lead.
"I poked it from Fahey, and my momentum carried me down to the goal," said Robert Liscak, the recipient of the turnover. He faked to his backhand to bring Braun down and then pulled it back to his forehand to score the game-winner at 16:12.
"I kept my head up and read the goalie," Liscak said. "I saw him going down across [the slot], so I knew that I had to stop and cut in."
Maine scored another early in the third off a Northeastern miscue. A Lucas Lawson shot trickled past Braun, and as it was lying in the crease, Arik Engbrecht tried to clear the puck away, but instead, knocked into his own net 1:31 into the third, giving Maine a 6-4 lead.
At 4:07 of the period, the game was stopped because of the leaking ammonia. To avoid any advantage, Fitzgerald had the teams switch ends halfway through the period.
Late in the period, Maine killed off two penalties and a row to seal things. Yeats made some great stops, and his defense cleared his rebounds.
"I gave up a couple bad rebounds," said Yeats, who bounced back from his nine-save effort against Sacred Heart on Sunday with 29 saves. "[The defense] was there boxing everyone out. They did a fantastic job tonight."
Gray Shaneberger scored in an empty net at 18:49 to put the game away and then Niko Dimitrakos scored one for good measure at 19:05 to give Maine the 8-4 victory.
Yeats was happy to recover from his troubled play. "Tonight's game was a huge confidence booster for me. I've had a tough start, but I had fun out there tonight. I got into the flow quickly. Everyone played really well."
Whitehead was also pleased with the play of Yeats. "He was solid. He looked pretty composed in the net."
Crowder, on the other hand, felt his team needs to get better goaltending.
"We let in some goals that we shouldn't have," Crowder said. "We've got three goalies in the locker room and I told them that we need to have better goaltending. It's just an area that we need to get better in. It's been our Achilles heel so far."
Northeastern (3-6-2, 2-4-1 Hockey East) is off until next Friday, when it hosts Clarkson at Matthews Arena. Maine (4-4-2, 2-1-0) will play Quinnipiac in nonconference action at Alfond Arena on Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m.

Hinsdale was too much for Saco/Whitewater, above, and Nashua
On Friday, the Hinsdale Raiders traveled to Nashua to play the Porcupines. It was the first conference games for the Raiders boys and girls.
The boys had to work hard for their "W". They found the Porcupines to be a scrappy bunch and every time the Raiders opened up a sizable lead behind pinpoint shooting by Dallas Capdeville, the Porkie's Lane Nickels popped for a couple three pointers to close the gap.
But with Wyatt Pattison controlling the boards for the Raiders (11 points, 11 rebounds), and Brett Johnson's eight first half points, the Raiders ended up with a 12 point lead when the half...

HBO presented the first installment of their 24/7 series for the Manny Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley rematch, which unfolds April 12 in Las Vegas, after their HBO Boxing After Dark broadcast ended.
First off, we saw Bradley and then Manny readying themselves for training, and then clips from their first tangle, in 2012. The judges spoke louder than the action did on that night, we recalled, as we heard Michael Buffer say, "....and the newwww."
"My time is not done yet," says Manny Pacquiao, while Bradley declares that he will leave no doubters this time. We saw more clips from that scrap, and heard Bradley describe his head going into the event. He said both feet were hurting him within a few rounds, and that was because he wasn't wearing socks.
Jim Lampley and Max Kellerman both spoke. Kellerman talked of the stakes going in, while Lampley said he didn't think it was a close fight, that Manny was taking care of business. Manny said he was too nice to Bradley during the fight. Lampley called it a near shutout, he recalls. He said Buffer gave him a look before reading the decision, and he knew something funky was going down.
Promoter Bob Arum admitted he though Buffer screwed up. Freddie Roach said only a "couple guys" though Bradley won, but theirs were the votes that counted.
Bradley protested, saying the fight was close but people won't admit that because Manny is revered, "he's God."
Manny postfight told Roach that I told ya so, that Bradley ran as he predicted. In the Bradley locker room, Bradley is hurting, with his feet barking at him.Trainer Joel Diaz said they didn't much enjoy the W. On a gurney, in an ambulance, Bradley says he needs to watch the tape to see if he really won.
Diaz says the win became "a nightmare." Bradley says it was a dark spot, with people talking nasty smack. Wife Monica Bradley explains the backlash, and the fighter says he got hate mail. Diaz says the offers of big names didn't come. Pacman explains that he didn't need a rematch, as he knew he won the first one handily. Thus, he aimed for another tangle with Juan Manuel Marquez. We all know how that went down...and that Manny went down.
We see a clip of the KO. Bradley, Lampley and Kellerman all talk about the vicious KO. Roach says he was worried at first but that Manny snapped into normalcy.
Arum says that carelessness can result in bad news, and that Manny made a mistake getting careless. Both Manny and Bradley say they understand it can happen to anyone. Bradley said he was happy, because now the pressure would be on Pacman.
Bradley says that a Ruslan Provodnikov fight was dangled. Bradley entered that fight with emotions bottled up, and he got careless. He "fought like hell," he said, instead of boxing smartly to a UD. He took a knee to end the fight, and if not, he would have lost, he said. Postfight, he peed blood, a first for him. He left some of himself in that ring, he notes.
Bradley then explains that the pressure was off, and thus he was in a mode for his next bout, against Juan Manuel Marquez. "It was sweet, it was easy, it was truly easy," he says. He had fun that night, he states.
Pacman says that he's not thinking about his KO loss, and that he knows he needs to move on from that. He met Brandon Rios, we recall, and Roach says that he didn't want wars for Manny in camp. On fightnight, Manny was relaxed, he says. Bradley notes that Manny wasn't able to stop Rios, while Roach says it was a good comeback fight. Lampley says that Roach would like a return of the KO craver Pacman.
We next see Bradley working out. He says he is now relaxed, and now craves to be great. Diaz says he's walking tall, is happy, because he knows how good he is. "Truly, I have arrived," he says, but he admits the Pacman "win" bothers him. He needs to rectify it, he says.
We see footage from the NYC presser. Manny says he will try and prove the killer instinct isn't lost, while Bradley says he loves proving doubters wrong.
Who has more at stake, more to prove heading into this bout, we wonder. Manny says he won't promise a KO, but will bring back the fire. Bradley doubts it, says he's still skilled, but doesn't crave winning as much. Roach thanks Bradley for the fuel, as does Manny.
Bradley gets the last word: "It's either him or me."
The next episode runs April 5, Saturday, at 11:30 PM ET. Then, on Thursday, April 10, at 8:30 PM, they run the third ep.
Two weeks and counting. Not a single promising attack, will Bambi Big Foot Bradley be amounting.
He's still "concussed" and his big-arse doggs will be barking again. And after he gets KTFO, he'll blaim it on defected shoes. Holla!
still haven't seen the show. Surprisingly Bradley is giving Paq all the motivation he needs to put on the best show of his life. I didn't want to pay for this fight but unfortunately I've become hooked by the hype. Of course Paq is the favorite, but Bradley has been improving incrementally. this oughta be good while it lasts.
He has been improving a lot but do you think he will deliver the goods required to beat Pac? All the pre-fight talk could even sow some seeds in the judge's minds going against Tim.. Who knows.
All that I think is certain is that both guys, whether they admit it or not, will be going for a show-stopper.
Tim makes Floyd look like he has the personality to be Time magazine's person of the year.
Tim just has nothing to offer when it comes to personality and charisma. The more he talks the more you just want him to stop because he is delusional.
Tim Bradley could look like the second coming of "Sweet Pea" and still wouldn't get a decision. This is a make up fight and Manny is almost guaranteed to win one way or another.
Hehehe! SRD, you don't believe that. Bradley is going to get KTFO and torched.
In the first bout, he got only a gift and scorched. But evil and interposition were on da J-O-B. And everyone knows how that jive and jingoism see. Holla!
I love when Bradley, sitting in a wheelchair after the Pac fight because he didn't wear socks (?), says he needs to watch the fight on tape to see if he won. That pretty much tells me he knew he lost. It was also funny to hear him hack on Pacquiao for not being able to KO Rios. Shaking his head at his lack of power. This is a guy with 12 KO's in 31 fights.
Bradleys bitterness makes him utterly boring, like a little guy wondering why there aint nobody loving him - and the more he complaints, the fewer that does.
Even Pacman got a chuckle out of Bradley's sock excuse for stumbling around the ring and exiting it
in a wheel chair. In reality, it was the shock waves from the numerous Pac straight lefts that were bouncing
off his noggin that caused the foot trauma. Pacman will be in better shape this fight to follow up and finish
the job.
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

At least 265 copies of Anne Frank's "Diary of a Young Girl," and other books related to the young World War II Holocaust victim, were discovered ripped and vandalized in libraries throughout Tokyo. The news of the vandalism, which began in Jan., was revealed to the media on Feb. 21 by Tokyo Libraries.
Although no firm reason for the vandalism is evident, MSN reported that fears of an "anti-Semitic motive" could be at the root cause.
The vandalism appears to be limited to ripped pages in the books, discovered in approximately 31 libraries throughout Tokyo.
Japan and Nazi Germany were allies in World War II, and though Holocaust denial has occurred in Japan at times, the motive for damaging the Anne Frank books is unclear. Police are investigating.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga called the vandalism "shameful" and said Japan would not tolerate such acts.
In the Nakano district of Tokyo, officials say that the damage to the books went unnoticed, and occurred in the libraries' reading rooms.
"Books related to Ms. Anne Frank are clearly targeted, and it's happening across Tokyo," Suga said Friday. "It's outrageous."
At least one of the Tokyo libraries has moved all Anne Frank-related texts to more secure areas; although patrons can still check the books out.
Anne Frank's diary, "The Diary of a Young Girl," was written by the 13-year-old while she was in hiding for two years during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. Frank and her family were discovered and arrested in 1944. The young writer eventually died at the tender age of 15 of typhus in a Nazi concentration camp.
Anne Frank's father, the only known family survivor, "published her diary, which has become the most widely read document to emerge from the Holocaust."
In a statement released by the Simon Wiesenthal Center, the U.S.-based Jewish human rights organization called the vandalism of Frank's books a "hate campaign" and want authorities to identify the responsible parties.
"Only people imbued with bigotry and hatred would seek to destroy Anne's historic words of courage, hope and love in the face of impending doom," according to that statement.
For more on the vandalism of the Anne Frank books discovered in Tokyo, see the video accompanying this article.

Today's Guest Post is by Bozzor, the Gold Millionaire.
Information is one of the most important factors in gold making.It is obviously that an informed player
reacts faster to any change in markets, gaining more gold or selling before a price crash.
Most players do not bother to read patch notes in depth or read known blogs about WoW economy on a daily or even weekly basis.They are simply caught ''with pants down'' when major changes happend in game.
Ask yourself a question : ''How much will hurt my play time 10-15 min / day of reading about WoW?''
I always read a number of sites and blogs BEFORE logging into WoW.I admit, i spend more than 15 min, but that is because i like to read about WoW economy.However, even 10-15 min its more than nothing. Try to do this, its not that bad :D
While informing about WoW economy its good, its not enough.This is only to have a general view about changes that will take place in game.But those changes are rare, ocuring only on major patches.After the changes take place, there is only one way to be prepared for speculations that take place after.
Add on your friends list the major sellers of ores, leather, herb and cloth.Watching their activity, when they log in, how much they farm before posting their stuff for sale, how much volume they sell, can help a player to cope with spikes in prices.Take into consideration that a crafted item that uses the above materials can be sold at higher than normal price if the farmers are busy gathering materials and there is 1-2 hours before they start selling, lowering the materials prices, hence, giving another crafters the posibility to make cheap items.
Also, add on your list the main competitors for craftable items on the markets you are active.There are windows of opportunity, when farmers are offline or gathering materials and the competition is offline or doing dungeons / pvp.
Think about that most of the farmers have 2 gathering professions, and sometimes, they move from ores to herbs, or from leather to ores. Being able to see what, when and how much they gather its an information that no serious trader can pass away.
So, to sum up, read about WoW economy and know your server farmers and competition.The first will have you prepared for any major changes, and second will give you the opportunity to gain gold between those major changes.
Stockpiling, as the main resource to make gold on long term, is heavily based on information and knowledge about your server economy, who is driven by major farmers and traders.
Speculation, along market manipulation, is a short time gold making opportunity that is also based on information.
Information is Gold is as much true as Time is Money.Even the smallest piece of information can make the difference between a succesful trader and a failed one.
Bozzor, Gold Multimillionaire.

College Hockey:Nanooks Roll Over Broncos, 7-3
UAF Unbeaten In First Three Games
KALAMAZOO, MICH. — In front of 2,589 fans at Lawson Ice Arena, Sophomore Cam Keith tallied three points and freshman Jared Sylvestre had the game-winner, a shorthander, and an assist as Alaska-Fairbanks defeated Western Michigan 7-3.
UAF head coach Guy Gadowsky was very impressed with Keith's performance. "Cam Keith was our best forechecker tonight. He's 6-3, 225, he's a big man and can really skate. He really played a great game. He's a big strong man…and he certainly created a lot for us tonight."
WMU starting goaltender Jeff Reynaert was pulled at 1:51 of the second period after letting in four goals on six shots, and was relieved by freshman goaltender Mike Mantua, who finished the game with 15 saves. Nanook junior goaltender Lance Mayes was solid, making 22 saves on the night. The UAF special teams were also solid on the evening, tallying two power-play goals and one shorthanded score.
The Broncos got on the board first at 7:03 in the opening stanza when Brent Rumble took a behind-the-net feed from Ben Gagnon and beat Mayes on the stick side from the top of the crease. The Nanooks answered quickly at 9:44, when Blaine Bablitz capitalized on a turnover in the WMU zone and beat Reynaert glove side to even the score at 1-1.
Fairbanks would score again less than a minute later when freshman Jason Grinevitch got by Reynaert with a slap shot from the top of the left face-off circle to give the Nanooks the lead at 2-1.
Western coach Jim Culhane was disappointed that the Broncos couldn't build on the momentum of the game's first goal.
"We felt we came out of the gate strong and played well in the first 12 minutes."
After Rumble's goal, Mayes stopped Bronco Jeff Campbell's breakaway, stalling the Western offense.
UAF scored two more unanswered goals, including a power play goal by Dan Carriere and Sylvestre's second-period tally, bumping the Nanooks ahead 4-1. Western shortened UAF lead to 4-2 when Pat Dwyer picked up his own third rebound midway through the second period.
Early in the third period, after UAF penalties by rookies Aaron Voros and Scott Vockeroth gave Western Michigan a five-on-three advantage, Bronco defender Dave Cousineau beat a sprawling Mayes to make it a 4-3 game. Anthony Battaglia then had a chance to tie things up for the Broncos on a Nanook defensive-zone turnover, but his rocket from the high slot was stopped by Mayes.
The Nanooks iced the game at 9:17 in the third period by capitalizing on another WMU defensive turnover. Ryan Lang took Tom Herman's pass through the slot to beat Mantua and give UAF a 5-3 lead. UAF added Felipe Larranaga's power-play goal and Sylvestre's shorthander to make the final score 7-3.
Gadowsky didn't feel that the final score was an accurate indication of how the game really went. "The puck was definitely bouncing our way tonight. We got a couple lucky bounces early and a couple lucky bounces late and that was definitely the difference in the game."
Culhane expressed his frustration. "Once they got that fifth goal they were able to sustain it and we couldn't generate anything. Hats off to them. They played a whale of a game and were able to take the energy out of us by getting those goals late."
The Nanooks are now 3-0-0, while the Broncos begin the season 0-1-0. The teams meet again for the second game of the weekend set at 7:05 p.m. Saturday in Lawson Arena.

The ANC is a national liberation movement. It was formed in 1912 to unite the African people and spearhead the struggle for fundamental political, social and economic change.
The ANC's key objective is the creation of a united, non-racial, non-sexist and democratic society.
This means the liberation of Africans in particular and black people in general from political and economic bondage. It means uplifting the quality of life of all South Africans, especially the poor.
The ANC is in an alliance with the South African Communist Party (SACP) and the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU). Each Alliance partner is an independent organisation with its own constitution, membership and programmes. The Alliance is founded on a common commitment to the objectives of the National Democratic Revolution, and the need to unite the largest possible cross-section of South Africans behind these objectives.

Does a brick of maple sugar merit a fifty-dollar price tag? We're not so sure. The Cube 57 Maple Bar definitely makes a cool gift, and it looks unique on the breakfast table, and it has the potential to make eating oatmeal fun again (fresh grated maple, anyone?), but we're thinking that for fifty bucks you can buy a lot of maple syrup and that syrup is less complicated to put onto food. What do you think? Is the aesthetic appeal worth it?
Another item for those with money and no sense. And even worse for those that lack both and buy it anyway.
They also sell the sugar in a different, not so fancy box for half the price. Only half as crazy. Click the numbers below the pic to step through the options.

BRUNSWICK — The Wadsworth boys and Brunswick girls swimming teams walked away with Medina County bragging rights Saturday night in a dual meet at the Brunswick Community Recreation Center.
The Grizzly boys edged the Blue Devils 104-72, while the Brunswick girls dunked Wadsworth 124-52.
A balanced effort by Wadsworth's boys helped them earn the victory, as five swimmers and two relays recorded wins.
Logan Lanson (200 free, 2:05.77), Jacob Braumbaugh (200 IM, 2:18.03), Bryce Easterling (500 free, 5:29.05), Phillip Bertke (100 backstroke, 1:06.59) and Matt Pavlak (100 breaststroke, 1:07.83) were individual winners.
Braumbaugh, Pavlak, Matthew Grey and Spencer LaHue teamed for the 200 medley relay victory — a feat matched by the 200 free relay unit of Lanson, Mason Hicks, Grey and Easterling.
Junior Jake Pavlison had a solid day for the Blue Devils, winning the 50 free (23.07) and 100 free (50.86), along with anchoring the 400 free relay to a win with Nathaniel Hagar, Billy Silvestro and Chris Nguyen.
In the girls meet, it was an efficient effort by the Blue Devils, as they won every event except one.
Hannah McCulloch touched the wall first in the 200 IM (2:22.86) and 100 free (57.24), along with helping the 200 free relay team to a win with Melissa Froncek, Nicolette Crissinger and Lizzy Gehlmann.
Along with winning the 500 free, freshman Vanessa Pasadyn helped the 200 medley and 400 free relay teams to victories.
Kim Stafford notched the lone first for Wadsworth, taking the 200 free in 2:11.42.
In other meets:
Dover Invitational
DOVER — Adam Goodreau won the 200 free and took second in the 100 fly as Cloverleaf's boys placed third. The junior standout also helped the 200 free relay, which includes Brice Bechtel, Josh Butt and Jack Thacker, to a school-record time in the 200 free relay en route to taking third.
Janelle Jordan was the lone placer for the Colt girls, who were ninth in the 17-team field. The sophomore was sixth in the 50 and 100 free.
Boys: Mentor 172, Medina 97
Girls: Medina 174, Mentor 141
MEDINA — Medina's girls picked up their first win of the season thanks to six individual wins and one relay victory.
Tess Fanello won the 100 (59.37) and 200 free (2:09.96), while Carolyn Yurkoski took the 1-meter dive and joined Samantha Petruzzi, Alexa Ross and Fanello on the 200 free relay. Petruzzi and Ross also were individual medalists, taking first in the 100 fly and 50 free, respectively. For the boys, Ryan Neubauer took gold in the 200 free (2:00.49) and 100 free (55.02), along with helping the 200 medley relay and 400 free relays to wins.

I began teaching the GED classes in Glasgow in fall 2013. It was rewarding and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would get such a feeling of accomplishment when a student got their GED. Most of my students were able to get better jobs and some went on to college or some sort of technical training. What an accomplishment on their part.
Three or four years ago Glasgow lost its funding for the GED class. I continued to hold class one day a week since that time. However, as with all of life, things change. It has become more difficult for me to get down to Job Service to hold class. Although there wil...

Alain Buffard's
"Mauvais Genre" comes to Danspace Project in New York
City March 30 - April 2, with an altered cast inluding New York-based
artists Cedric Andrieux, Erin Cornell, DD Dorvillier, Neil Greenberg,
Miguel Gutierrez, Trajal Harrell, John Jasperse, Ishmael Houston-Jones,
Heather Kravas, Lucy Sexton, Jeremy Wade and others.)
Paul Ben-Itzak
Copyright 2004, 2006 The Dance Insider
-- It's too bad that Alain Buffard and the rest of the all-star
cast for "Mauvais Genre" (Bad Type) didn't arrive at the Centre
Pompidou about six hours before Buffard's new show bowed there last
night. They could have caught, in the cadre "Cinema for Infants,"
a screening of Francois Truffaut's 1958 "The 400 Blows," a masterpiece
of a portrait of a pre-teen bad type (Jean Pierre Leaud) with the
heart of an angel. Truffaut could teach Buffard something about
precision and making choices; "Mauvais Genre" unravelled as unsupervised
child's play enacted embarrassingly by adults. This is the kind
of compositionally sloppy, indulgent, 'insider' dance experience
you should never take an initiate to. Mauvais Danse Contemporaine
with a capital M.
Disregard for the spectator
began with Christophe Poux's lighting scheme, which relied entirely
on glaring fluorescent bulbs: in the beginning in sets of three
or four suspended cylinders which lit up before the faces of each
of a parade of 18 naked dancers (most of them members of France's
choreographic illuminati) who situated themselves upstage, so that
one had no choice but to regard the lower extremities of the performers.
Well, there was one other choice: to close the eyes, which I did
on occasion; critics not receiving hazard pay, my commitment stops
short of physical pain such as that to which this lighting subjected
viewers. When I opened my eyes, here's some of what I saw:
First I should tell
you the line-up, most of whom are considered leaders of various
French scenes ranging from the eighties to the present: Jerome Andrieu,
Trisha Bauman, Regine Chopinot, Matthieu Doze, Hela Fattoumi, Simon
Hecquet, Christophe Ives, Anne Laurent, Vera Mantero (Portuguese,
but a fixture here in recent years), Julie Nioche, Rachid Ouramdane,
Pascale Paoli, Mickael Phelippeau, Cecile Proust, Laurence Rondoni,
Mark Tompkins (American, ditto), Tomeo Verges and the choreographer,
who studied with Alwin Nikolais here and went on to dance for Daniel
Larrieu and Philippe Decoufle, among others.
"Mauvais Genre," which
continues at the Pompidou through Saturday, is a sequel to the solo
"Good Boy," and at first it seemed as if the concept here was for
each of the 18 performers to render an identical solo, with their
unique inflections. In the contemporary chorus line that opened
the evening, once everyone was in place, facing us, they began to
turn in a sort of staccato canon. Then each reached, at different
times, into black plastic garbage bags before them to find white
men's underwear, which they donned with different timing, in multiples
-- achieving a sort of diaper effect.
Eventually, also one
by one and carrying their own individual fluorescent flashlights
to illuminate them individually, the performers spread out across
the stage and executed various ground maneuvers, initially in isolation:
kneeling on all fours; awkwardly projecting one leg in the air,
sort of like a dog urinating while balanced on its side; and simply
collapsing. The trouble really started when they began grouping;
some interesting tableaus resulted, but the body-clapping percussion
has been done before and the exploratory mouth-farting on each other's
various limbs and joints was just silly. This was the point where
I said to myself, "Thank Goddess I didn't pick this one to invite
my non-dance friend to. She's open to new experiences, and I don't
want to abuse that by taking her to a mauvais experience.
One of the evening's
redeeming moments came at the conclusion, when, swaddled some of
them waist, breast, and head with more pairs of white underwear,
the ensemble minus two float in all their god- and goddess-ness
downstage facing us, to the tune of "New York, New York" played
by an orchestra of car horns. This segues to the actual song. As
the white-underwear clad ensemble descends the stage and exits through
the right aisle of the audience, the singers are revealed as Tompkins
and Mantero, clad in form-fitting skirts evidently composed of black
underwear, there torsos still bare. Both wielding microphones, he
underplays as she vamps. They're a hit and could take it on the
road; whether Alain Buffard's "Mauvais Genre" would make it anywhere
where the audience didn't know the performers is doubtful.
I've known Mantero's work since she presented a fascinating Kitchen
solo which terminated when a suspended pointe shoe-shaped candle
had melted down and dropped off its wire to the ground. Seen last
fall at the Theatre de la Bastille, her 1999 "Olympia," which probed
the model who was the subject of Edouard Manet's painting of the
same name, confirmed my initial impression of her genius. In my
review of that piece, I noted that Mantero "eventually
takes the famous position, freezes in it for a few seconds, and
then slowly becomes hyper-aware of her right arm, dangling listlessly
over the pillow. Still maintaining her eye contact with the spectator,
she fidgets it into various other positions, but can't get settled.
She sidles her legs and other hand around into different arrangements.
She slides off the bed. She sits on its edge, back slumped, hands
folded between her open legs like a TV zombie. (The position is
not very sexy, but then I'm not sure the one captured by Manet was
meant to be either.) Finally she gets the idea to remove the flower
and toss her frizzy auburn hair out. She rises and walks tentatively,
jerkily around the room. Then she returns to the bed and perches
stretched out along the top before -- and we know what's coming
here -- falling and disappearing behind it."
Like Sean Curran, Doug
Elkins, and Ben Munisteri -- you probably have your own favorite
-- Mantero is that choreographer-performer you can watch forever
do just about anything. From her skin emanates her working mind.
Her expression is neutralized without being impassive, giving the
impression that her body has taken control and she has no choice
but to follow its instincts. Were I to have spent the entire time
focusing exclusively on the choreographer-performer, I might have
found her 2002 piece for Vera Mantero & Guests (the actual title
is difficult to transcribe), seen Friday at the Pompidou, compelling.
Initially, I was hopeful.
The stage was ringed
on three sides with walls made of what looked like up-ended translucent
dark green air mattresses. One expected that much bouncing off the
walls and hilarity would ensue; beyond a few forays, it didn't,
leaving one to wonder what exactly was the intent of Nadia Lauro's
set, beyond providing a unique and colorful frame and unique entrance
points for the performers, who regularly disappeared or appeared
from the cornices.
Each had his or her
own business -- and it was at least highly and individually kinetic.
The aspect was of a troupe of Supermen/women who, perhaps, have
been disabled by Kryptonite (it's green too) surroundings and are
struggling to find their legs again. This fits Mantero's typical
mode; a doll come to life and moving jerkily, somewhat tentatively.
When a short, bearded, older man zoomed onstage pushing an easy
chair ahead of him and plopped down to watch the spectacle, the
spectacle became more droll; another man leaned diagonally on the
chair-back, supporting himself on it. The tiny man looked behind
him, irked, and became even more annoyed when the other threw his
cape over him. Later, they were joined by a woman who leaned on
the chair's arm, rocking, before collapsing backwards on the man's
lap. She sort of humped (or thumped, if you prefer) him with her
butt, repeatedly falling backwards off the chair arm onto his groin
before the other man threw the cape over them both and things calmed
This and other hijinks
between two performers or, in two extended segments, with the tiny
man directing the others or racing Tasmanian-devil like across the
stage while they quietly watched, were often interesting; but I
can't help thinking they would have been more interesting if all
the performers had been on Mantero's level. I get the feeling that
she sought artistic collaborators -- the cast is credited as co-creators
-- when she might have been better served by looking for dancers
whose training and talent matched her own. (The other two woman
were decent here; two of the three men weak.) She could also reign
in her co-creators in the service of attaining a bit more thematic
Speaking of costumed characters, I celebrated Thanksgiving by catching
DJ Spooky's "Rebirth of a Nation," which gives D.W. Griffith's 1915
"Birth of a Nation" a visual remix and a master DJ's new sound mix,
in a one-night stand at the Theatre du Chatelet. This is the storied
house where Michel Fokine's "Petrouchka" and many other Ballets
Russes productions had their premieres a century or so ago, and
being a part-time DJ myself, I was looking forward to drawing parallels.
Nominally a dance critic, I'd scored the press tickets with the
Festival d'Automne, which co-presented Spooky as well as Buffard,
on the grounds that selections from Bill T. Jones's "Last Summer
at Uncle Tom's Cabin / The Promised Land" were also advertised as
being in the mix.
Spooky was aware that
he was standing on hallowed ground. In an introduction -- danger
Will Robbins, the DJ is speaking! -- he proudly shared that this
was the first time a DJ had performed in this opera house. He also
shared that he wasn't one of the Americans who voted for "that idiot
Bush," a sort of obligatory apologia which, well-intended as it
is, I and other ex-pats are over because it implies that the French
can't distinguish. (Although I admit the "I voted for Kerry" note
and accompanying sad face is still posted on my door.)
Technically seamless,
visually stunning, and musically marvelous, as a work of art "Rebirth"
falls flat because it's not clear that, besides the music track,
Spooky has created something new. He insists in a program note that
he's just raising questions, but whatever comment on the original
film or questions arising from it as juxtaposed to current circumstances
may lurk in Spooky's mind are not clearly enunciated in this spectacle,
beyond a certain menace layered under the film by the new and killer
soundtrack. Images from the Jones work interspersed or mixed with
the Griffith film are over-manipulated; if I wasn't looking for
them, I might not have noticed them, at least not enough to be able
to distinguish the work of the choreographer and the dancers.
In a dance club, "Rebirth
of a Nation" might have stunned with the prowess of the mixer. In
an opera house, it reminds us that a DJ is not a creator of art
but a tasteful and creative selector of others' art. (And I say
that with native respect for DJ science.) Most of the emotional
response is to the original film. One finds oneself simply recoiling
at Griffith's politics, really not much of an accomplishment for
Miller considering the film's overt racism.

Martial Solal: Here's That Rainy Day
Here's That Rainy Day
Martial Solal (piano)
Longitude (Cam Jazz 5029)
Martial Solal (piano),
François Moutin (bass), Louis Moutin (drums).
Composed by Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke.
Recorded: Paris, April 4-6, 2007
Rating: 88/100 (learn more)
Here's one version of "Rainy Day" where you can actually hear the storm. Martial Solal may have been almost 80 years old when he recorded this track, but he plays with the restless, probing energy of a much younger artist. This music is full of angular phrases and acerbic chords. Even his statement of the familiar Jimmy Van Heusen melody is indirect and attenuated. You may think that European pianism is mostly lyrical stylings, but Solal, the granddaddy of them all (he was gigging with Bechet and Django before the stars of the ECM roster were born) will quickly dispel that notion. This performance is like a ship on choppy waters -- you reach out and try to grab hold of something, and it quickly slides away. Many artists become rigid traditionalists as the decades advance, but Solal takes the opposite course, moving farther and farther out on a limb.

text: I picked up a Qwikclip for my Glock 23 a couple months ago and love it. Except for one small thing, the bottom edge of the leather curls out when I wear it. I've tried to flatten it out by sandwiching it between 2 pieces of wood overnight and can't really figure out what else to do. The main problem is when I wear my work shorts and the lip pushes out at my front pocket. It doesn't affect the concealability that much but is more annoying than anything. Any ideas?

Hoping to make some chages
Monday, May 30, 2011
I haven't been on SP in a while. And while I haven't been losing weight or working out I have at least been eating somewhat better in the past month. I haven't eaten any meat in the past 2 weeks and now I'm thinking about trying to eat more oraganic, raw, and locally grown foods and maybe even doing some sort of cleanse or detox too.
It's funny to me that lately I've become a lot more interested in living naturally and limiting the amount of chemicals that we are exposed to in our environment and in the food we eat. I've watched Food Inc. and Food Matters on our Netflix the last couple of days and so much of it makes sense to me. I really want to eat a healthy, primarily natural diet and improve and maintain my health. The weight loss is not really my focus anymore (at least not at the moment). I just want to make small changes that can mean big improvements for my health. I want to learn about eating more raw foods and superfoods and using vitamins and other natural remedies for health concerns. I even want to switch to more natural baby, household, cleaning, and beauty products. I just feel like I have so much to learn about what things are good and bad, what foods to try to avoid or eat less of, and what foods and vitamins are extremely beneficial, etc. I know I will have a ton of questions but I'm definitely intrigued by the idea of trying to live and eat more naturally. I really want to do it for my health and for my son's health. My husband - well, that's a different story and he doesn't buy into any of this really but that's his problem, not mine. I'll keep buying him all the crappy food he wants but I can control what I feed myself and Vincent so that's what I'll do.
I know this will definitely have to be a gradual change to better eating and living and, to be honest, I'm not sure how well it will go since there are so many things I know it will be hard for me to try to avoid. But if I focus on what I can and should be eating instead of what I shouldn't then I'm hoping it will be a little easier.
I have no idea where I will end up but I do know I want to try to think more about what I'm putting in, on, and near my body and making better choices to help me live a much healthier and longer life.

i have been trying to work more on being mindful of things in my life. i do not want to be overthinking and ve one of these people that spend $50-100 per month in "supplements" because i don't eat peoper food.
I want to loose weight, but i also want to get more out of my life and have control over my eating and be capable of being active.

Still frantically racking your brain to come up with a Mother's Day gift for your own mother or another mom in your life? If she's a cat lover, check out our gift ideas and find something that will strike her fancy.
Cat-themed wines
If Mom enjoys drinking wine, surprise her with a bottle or assortment of cat-themed wine. A few to look for in your local shop or online:
- Herding Cats
- Hello Kitty
- Gato Negro
Cat-themed books & magazines
Have you considered giving the mother in your life a cat-themed book or an assortment of them? For moms who like mysteries, check out Lilian Jackson Braun's "The Cat Who..." series, the Mrs. Murphy mystery series by Rita Mae Brown (and Sneaky Pie Brown), or Lydia Adamson's Alice Nestleton books. Another great choice is the Joe Grey series by Shirley Rousseau Murphy, which stars a cat who can communicate with humans.
For science fiction and fantasy fans, try "Tailchaser's Song" by Tad Williams or Michael Coney's "Cat Karina". The former is said to be the "Battleship Down" for cats instead of rabbits. Another excellent choice is the Warriors series by Erin Hunter, very popular with kids and young adults and loved by adults as well. For a mother to older children or young adults, the kids could read the book(s) along with Mom for an even more special Mother's Day present.
If Mom is more into nonfiction and learning about real cats, head to your local bookstore and peruse the books on cat breeds, cat history, and cat care. Or get her a subscription to a cat-focused magazine like Cat Fancy, Cat World, or Natural Cat.
On Mother's Day only, get a special deal on Cat Fancy from BestDealMagazines.com. The company is offering a one-day discount on its already low subscription cost. Visit the site on Sunday to see the low price, which will be below $5.39 per year and less than half the usual subscription rate of $13.
Help cats
Perhaps you know a mother who would rather do something to help cats than receive a material gift. Here are a few ways you might honor her and help cats simultaneously:
- Donate to a cat shelter, rescue group, sanctuary, wildlife rehabilitaton, or animal advocacy group in her name. You can make up a certificate to give her on the holiday.
- Sponsor a pregnant or new mother cat at a cat shelter or rescue, and let your mother know that she inspired you both to make a difference and to honor motherhood.
- For a hands-on mom, give her a certificate she can trade in for a full day with you volunteering with a local animal organization. (Be sure to check with the organization to find out whether you need to schedule ahead, and if you're a youngster ask about the minimum age for volunteers.)
Cats or kittens
Often people like to give pet lovers an actual pet as a gift. If you consider this option, keep in mind that Mom might not be willing or able to take on a pet (whether it would be the 1st or the 21st in the home!), and that at the very least she may prefer to pick out a cat or kitten hreself. Here are some ways you can help fill the gap for a mother in need of a new feline companion, without bringing her a cat or kitten who may end up back at the shelter:
- Give Mom a certificate entitling her to adopt a cat or kitten (or two) at a local animal adoption organization.
- Go with her to help her find a companion who will fit well with her lifestyle.
- Help a cat-loving mother become a foster parent for an animal shelter or rescue group. That way she can help homeless cats or kittens, and over time find the special feline who will become part of her family.

Cop Land
|Cop Land
|GTA Vice City
|Tommy Vercetti
|Coffee Shop in North Point Mall
|North Point Mall
Cop Land is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City played for Tommy Vercetti, in which Tommy goes with Lance Vance to blow up a coffee shop in the North Point Mall.
|Spoiler Warning: Plot and/or ending details are in the text which follows.
One of Tommy's bodyguards, Mike, was supposed to destroy the store initially. However, Mike messed up the fuses and the cops are getting suspicious. Tommy must go with Lance, disguised as cops, to destroy the store themselves.
The Mission
Attract some police attention by running over or killing random pedestrians (there are many ways to attract police attention, but this is the easiest and safest way). Once you get one or two stars, drive to a garage where you can lure some cops in. Once you get to cops in, the garage door will close and Tommy and Lance will be disguised as cops once the garage door opens. After this, you will no longer have a wanted level. After this, get a cop car to the North Point Mall. It should be extremely easy to steal a cop car, because the cops don't arrest you since they think you are a cop. You can kill them to obtain a police car if you want. Once you get to the coffee shop, stand in a pink marker where Tommy will plant the bomb. You only have five seconds, so make a run for it!!! After the coffee shop explodes, you will obtain a 5 star wanted level and the FBI will chase you. Escape to Vercetti Estate where you will lose your wanted level upon entering the mansion.
Lance: You moron! What were you thinking?! Do you realize what this means? We could all be sunk!
Mike: The timer must have got screwed. That place was wired to go up like a firework factory. Then somebody tipped off the cops.
Tommy: What's the problem, fellas?
Lance: Mike was supposed to torch some place in the mall. But he screwed the fuses, and now the cops are crawling all over it. We gotta get our stuff and get outta here.
Tommy: Relax, both of you. Let me think for a second. Tommy Vercetti just doesn't cut and run. The cops are gonna be going over that building with a fine-toothed comb, right? But that takes time. We gotta go in and torch that place ourselves.
Mike: Yeah, but...
Lance: Nobody but a cop could get within a mile of that place!
Tommy: So we go as cops. We gotta get uniforms, and we're gonna need a squad car. All thanks to you, Mike.
Mike: I'm sorry.
Lance: I got it. What we gotta do is lure the cops with a finger, put em in a lockup, and jump em..
Tommy: Good plan. Let's go.
Mike: Alright

Dear Editor,
It is truly sad to see the Met Cinema closing its doors. For years it has been Oakhurst and the surrounding areas main entertainment venue.
What I find even sadder is the lack of respect that has been shown to the owners and staff of the Met. These people need our support as they close, not our ongoing complaints.
Here are just a few of the issues (and there are many more) that forced the closure:
Constant complaints about the admission prices which had to be raised to offset the improvements that were needed for the theatre.
Complaints about the concession prices. This is where theatre owners make their money, not in playing movies. The owners have shared that they find trash from outside food (pizza boxes, store candy wrappers, microwave popcorn sacks and more) after every movie. They could not compete with this sneakiness.
Dishonest movie watchers that have not purchased annual passes but find ways to see more than one movie without paying.
Worst of all is the disrespect that has been given to the owners and staff. People have made rude comments to everyone concerned. Where is your understanding? Were the rude and malicious comments helpful?
So, to those movie fans that must travel to Fresno, spending your money on gas, higher admission prices, $8 popcorn, threats of being arrested for sneaking into extra shows and perhaps being kicked-out for bringing in food from outside -- That is what you are now facing.
To the owners and the staff at the Met, thank you for all that you have done and put up with. We continue to appreciate each and every one of you and we will truly miss you.
Gail Hawksworth, Ahwahnee

College Hockey:Whitehead Returns to Maine as Assistant
ORONO, Maine — Maine announced the hiring of Tim Whitehead as an assistant coach today. Whitehead, a former assistant under head coach Shawn Walsh, returns to Maine after spending the last 10 years at UMass-Lowell, the last five as head coach. He fills the vacancy created by the departure of Gene Reilly to the Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League.
"I'm excited to go back to Maine, and I'm looking forward to working with Shawn and Grant [Standbrook] again," said Whitehead. "I love to coach, and this is a great coaching opportunity for me. We have a lot of family in Maine, and my wife and I will really enjoy being close to family."
The addition of Whitehead gives the Black Bears two experienced former Division I coaches; Standbrook coached five years at Dartmouth and has been an assistant for five different national champions. This experience is especially important given Walsh's battle to defeat cancer over the past 16 months.
"Tim will help us keep consistency in our program," said Walsh. "He knows our system, and he knows the league inside-out. He's a top-notch teacher and coach that will add a lot to the success of our program. Personally, I can't wait to see him on the ice with our team."
Whitehead served as an assistant at Maine during the 1990-91 season before moving on to Lowell, where he was an assistant for five years before assuming the head role.
In his five years as the River Hawks' head coach, Whitehead went 76-93-11. He was honored as a finalist for the American Hockey Coaches Association (ACHA) Spencer Penrose Coach of the Year Award in 1997 and 2001, and was also runner-up for Hockey East Coach of the Year honors in 1997 and 2001.
Following a year of uncertainty over his status, Whitehead and Lowell athletic director Dana Skinner could not agree on a new contract following last season, and the two sides parted ways.
Whitehead, 40, graduated from Hamilton College in 1985 with a bachelor's
degree in government, and earned a master's degree in education from Maine
in 1991.

Two Kittens Rescued from Car Engine!
UPDATE: Kittens up for adoption 11/21/12 Adoption Information
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – Two Florida kittens have at least eight lives left.
The Humane Society of Tampa Bay responded to a call Thursday from a woman who heard a crying noise from the engine of her Toyota Scion. It turned out to be a small kitten that had wedged itself into the engine. When rescuers were extricating the kitty, a second kitten was found in the engine with an injured foot.
Both animals were removed and treated. They will recover in a foster home and eventually be adopted out.
The kittens' feral mother stood by during the rescue. She will be spayed, vaccinated and cared for by the owner of the Scion.

2012 Passion for Pets Raises $214,000 for the Animals!
On Wednesday, October 11, 2012 more than 500 guests attended the Humane Society of Tampa Bay's (HSTB) annual Passion for Pets Luncheon held at the Hyatt Regency Tampa. The Luncheon featured presentations by Harry Cohen, Tampa City Councilman; Sherry Silk, HSTB Executive Director; Ornella Varchi, HSTB Volunteer and Outreach Manager; and Mary Birrell, Vice President, HSTB Board of Directors. Lindsay Milbourne, Fox 13 Meteorologist and News Reporter, served as the event emcee. Tampa City Councilwoman and HSTB Advisory Board Member Yvonne Yolie Capin acted as spokesperson for the luncheon. And, of course, plenty of adorable adoptables were on hand to steal the show.
Through the generous support of the attendees the Society raised $214,000 through pledges, sponsorships and matching gifts. All monies raised at the luncheon will directly support the life-saving programs at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay such as homeless pet transfers and adoptions, free pet food assistance, affordable veterinary and spay/neuter services, trap/neuter/vaccinate/return services for feral cats, and community outreach and educational efforts.
"We are so grateful to the Tampa Bay community for their continued support and generosity," said Humane Society of Tampa Bay Executive Director Sherry Silk. "Because of their overwhelming kindness, we will be able to save the lives of more animals in need and our core programs and services will remain vibrant."

"I'm a little older than most people when they first start doing it, as far as like coming out as an artist," country singer-songwriter Brandy Clark says. "I thought, 'Oh, that's just something that's not going to happen to me.'"
Over the past few years the thirty-something native of Washington state has established herself as a preeminent Nashville songwriter. Clark is part of a Music Row collective writing smarter, more sophisticated songs, many of which have become major hits — from "Mama's Broken Heart" for Miranda Lambert to "Better Dig Two" for The Band Perry. And if you saw this year's Grammy Awards, no doubt you remember Kacey Musgraves performing Clark's twangy gay-affirming anthem "Follow Your Arrow."
But since last fall Clark has also started gaining attention as a singer and an artist in her own right, with the release of her tremendous, and tremendously entertaining, debut album 12 Stories.
"I've never thought my stuff was that far off what country radio was, which I grew up listening to," she says, "but I think it is quite a bit off of what country radio currently is." All it takes is a glance at the song titles to see how off from conservative-leaning country Clark's sharp songs are: "Illegitimate Children," "The Day She Got Divorced" and current single "Get High."
"I think life is a dark comedy, so to me my songs are kind of dark comedy, a lot of them," she says. "Tough subject matter but really delivered a little bit tongue in cheek.
"Some of those songs are closer to me than others, as far as my own personal experiences," continues Clark, who sees herself as a storyteller, telling stories that go beyond just her own experiences. And her own experiences in Nashville, where she moved at the age of 21, have been good, or at least free of outright homophobia and discrimination.
"I've been very fortunate in that I've been working with a lot of other gay people in the industry … and we've all been pretty successful."
Brandy Clark performs Wednesday, May 28, at 7:30 p.m., at The Birchmere, 3701 Mount Vernon Ave., Alexandria. Tickets are $20. Call 703-549-7500 or visit birchmere.com.

Love & Hip Hop ATL: Mimi Faust & Nikko Leak Sex Tape?
Y'all, Mimi is getting herself together for a sex tape that was somehow stolen and will be leaked. How in the hell is it stolen and you know it will be leaked?
Anyway, peep what Funky Dineva said:
About 2 weeks ago, Mimi Faust enlisted the help of a media coach to provide her with media training in an effort to get ahead of this sex tape scandal that is about to rock Love & Hip Hop.
For those of you in the dark, as I was, pictures have surface online of Nikko and who appears to be Mimi Faust doing the nasty. The boobs on the woman in the pictures look store bought, and the tattoos align, so we are more than confident it is Mimi. We are also confident that this tape did no mysteriously leak, but that Mimi & Nikko most likely orchestrated this stunt to stay current. It's worked for everyone else, hell why not?
When your storyline is fading and the love has lost its shine, what else is there to do but produce a sex tape? Well get in the gym and make sure your body is super tight, go to the surgeon and get some top shelf titties, then produce a sex tape. That's what Mimi and Nikko did. Hell, quiet as its kept, I ain't even mad with them. This reality tv money is some of the quickest and easiest money there is to get these days. Everyone is trying to get it while the getting is good. What I can respect about Mimi & company as that they were smart enough to orchestrate the entire plan from start to finish.
I didn't know leaked videos had schedules but whatevs. *Kanye shrug* The thirst must be real.

Excellent job getting our shirts to us before or 1 year anniversary. Shirts looked amazing even with just the one color print. We used them for customer promotion and our customers are wearing them everywhere and promoting our business for us. Great price and service.

Our practice t-Shirts are well received by our patients. The ink work is the same quality on ever shirt in our order. The shirts were well packed. We did not have to worry about severe creases on our shirts.

I recently purchased 144 shirts all of which were very well printed. Although the website does seem intimidating due to way the online application for the purchase is laid out, the customer service made everything easier. I'd recommend to go immediately to the customer service chat for the easiest way to make your purchase. In particular Eric Cooksey has helped me very much in my purchase helping me get the lowest price without me asking and also being in constant contact through email. All in all the customer service is outstanding and the product as well.

I got these shirts printed with my company logo (on the front in small size, and in the back center in a larger size). Overall, I'm very pleased with the quality of the screen printing. Everything came out well and looks sharp.The t-shirts themselves are descent. I wouldn't say they are "wonderful" but as far as 100% cotton t-shirt go, these feel about as you'd expect. Descent quality, but they do look like they run big to me, which I wish I'd known ahead of time.

The t-shirt is of good quality and importantly, the printing InkHead did washes well! For those who need a little more info, this tee has a smaller diameter neck, which is a feature we specifically looked for.
