What he's done for us lately: He recently opened Olliewood Skate Park in Hollywood, parlaying his international rep as a skateboarder into a business. This is no ordinary glide jockey. Gelfand is one of the originators of the sport, the inventor 30 years ago of a technique that has become known worldwide as "the ollie." The Oxford English Dictionary recently included ollie -- "a jump executed by pressing the foot down on the tail of the board to rebound the deck off the ground" -- in its OED Online.
What it takes: "A lot of drive. I'm a little bit hyper. Creative people think different from everybody else. When I was little, I wasn't into team sports. I made rules for myself. That's what puts you ahead of the crowd."

As I sit down to write tonight, I am just cooling off from a late-night run in unseasonably cool weather for an Atlanta evening in July. I considered writing before taking off. It was late to start a run, 9 p.m., and I had some thoughts on what I wanted write, thinking I could sit down and knock it out.
Then, I checked my Fitbit and saw I was a couple of miles short of my goal for the day. Now I had a decision to make. Continue on through hour 14 of my workday or take an hour +/- to get in a short run. A quick look at my calendar told me I had an hour I could carve out for writing tomorrow, so I opened a Google Doc, jotted down my initial thoughts as an outline (all about return on investment (ROI) for marketing automation systems), got changed, and headed outside.
I am often asked about how I make decisions.
My day is filled with opportunities to choose my own path and the path for my company. To me, every step on every path is an investment and therefore every decision is an investment decision. The investment might be time, the investment might be financial, the investment might be mental, or the investment might be a combination of those things.
Literally every decision I make in life is an investment decision and as such, with each decision I weigh the cost against the potential return.
In my role as chief executive (CEO) of Salesfusion, I am faced with three primary decision types:
1. Cultural Decisions: These are decisions about where and how to invest to attract, grow, and retain the best people in the world for our team. Culture is critical to any business and even more so for a fast-growing company that is adding team members and customers at a blistering pace. It can be tempting to cut corners in hiring – to take someone with the right skills, but maybe not the right cultural fit, when you are growing quickly and just want (need) bodies. It can be tempting, but the return on that investment will be poor. Investing the extra time and energy up front to attract the right people pays off continually. Each great hire adds their special sauce and moves everyone forward in exciting ways, making it easier to achieve your goals and, more importantly, to attract more amazing people. One bad hire, culturally, can sink the ship. Culture is king in a growing business and the ROI of each cultural decision must be treated with the respect they deserve.
2. Customer Decisions: Stemming from our culture is how we treat our customers. These decisions are pretty easy and the ROI is readily apparent. Even decisions that look like they may cost a lot in time and money up front almost always pay dividends when made with a customer first mindset. At Salesfusion, our decision hierarchy is Customer → Company → Self. Again, when we act with that hierarchy in mind, our investment decisions are easy and the return on those investments is almost always positive.
3. Product Decisions: If you make good decisions in the first two areas, these decisions follow in track. If you make poor investment decisions when considering your culture and your customers, product investments will never pay off. These decisions often seem discrete – they are the easiest to spot and the ROI is the easiest to track on the P&L, so they end up getting the most attention and scrutiny. While important, I believe if you execute educated culture and customer decisions, part of the return on those investments will be a clear picture for product decisions.
I was going to write this blog post about marketing automation ROI. I made a conscious decision to invest in a run instead. The cost – an hour of time. The return – a clear head and a whole new approach to this blog post.

Catholic News Service (www.catholicnews.com)
ST. PAUL, Minn. - As a college student in the 1980s, Father Erich Rutten first associated the Irish rock band U2 with "great political rock."
U2'S BONO PERFORMS U2's Bono performs to a sell-out crowd of 90,000 at Azteca Stadium in Mexico City in early February. Father Erich Rutten, associate pastor at the Cathedral of St. Paul in St. Paul, Minn. And a U2 fan, has come to believe the group was a Christian rock band, without its members calling it one. (CNS/Reuters)
Catholic News Service (www.catholicnews.com)
7/6/2006 (1 decade ago)
Published in Marriage & Family
Then he discovered one of the band's early albums from 1981, "October." Listening to songs such as "Gloria" and "Rejoice," with references to Jerusalem and the themes of death and resurrection, he realized that "virtually every song on the album is explicitly Christian," he said. Interested in things spiritual, he started to learn more about U2 and pay attention to the lyrics - even in songs that seemed more like political songs or love ballads. "They're a Christian rock band" without calling themselves one, he told The Catholic Spirit, newspaper of the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. "They steered a very interesting course. They didn't go with the explicitly Christian band label. They developed their artistry - their music - in such a way that they did an excellent job of bringing in common, everyday symbols and stories to amplify the Christian message." Father Rutten, who was ordained for the archdiocese last year and is an associate pastor at the Cathedral of St. Paul, is still a U2 fan, and he's become more well-known for it. At the invitation of the young adult series Theology on Tap, he developed a PowerPoint presentation last year on the Irish band to share at one of the local gatherings. He pointed out that Bono was born in 1960 in Dublin, Ireland, to an Anglican mother and Catholic father. His real name is Paul Hewson and his nickname is short for Bono Vox, which means "good voice" in Latin. It also was the name of a hearing aid shop in Dublin. Bono has said he grew up with a strong religious faith, mostly attending his mother's church, but did not become attached to one particular denomination. "From his household, he was very sensitive to the ways in which people of faith hurt each other, just across denominational divides," Father Rutten said. In fact, in a song on the 1987 album "The Joshua Tree," Bono sings of a place "Where the Streets Have No Name." It's an image of heaven, free of tension and division, "not divided by what side of the street you live on," the priest said. Father Rutten said band members have commented that whenever they play the song live, they "feel the power of God." The priest said some might expect the band to rant against U.S. foreign policy and war, but instead it presents a Christian view of hope. The 2004 song "Vertigo" carries a sense of being off-balance, as if there's nothing firm to stand on, Father Rutten noted. "That's how they describe the modern world." Later in the song, Bono sings: "Your love is teaching me how to kneel." It's the idea that "in the midst of the chaos or the confusion or the vertigo, you can find some stability through faith," Father Rutten said. But U2 makes no pretense of having all the answers. The priest said the band's spirituality is one of questioning and attempts to be comfortable with mystery or apparent contradictions. Some people see that questioning as a lack of faith. But Father Rutten sees it as a mature faith. "Even in the midst of questioning," he said, "there's that implicit trust and faith that the love of God is beneath it all."

(Feb. 18, 2011)--The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has approved a Doctor of Philosophy degree in mechanical engineering and a Bachelor of Science degree in biomedical engineering at The University of Texas at San Antonio. Both programs will begin this fall.
"San Antonio is home to nearly 1.4 million people, five Fortune 500 firms and numerous companies in the biotech, manufacturing, aerospace and energy industries," said Mauli Agrawal, dean of the UTSA College of Engineering. "There are many opportunities for engineering graduates in the region. Yet until now, San Antonio institutions have not offered a bachelor's degree in biomedical engineering and you couldn't find a doctoral program in mechanical engineering anywhere in South Texas. We expect there to be a great demand for these programs of study. "
Mechanical engineers integrate engineering design, physics, mathematics, systems theory and materials science principles to design, develop, produce and operate mechanical systems as diverse as machinery, rockets, aircraft, cars and air conditioning systems.
UTSA's doctoral program in mechanical engineering will prepare students and professionals to become scholars and leaders in the industry by introducing them to advanced mechanical engineering concepts offering research opportunities. The program's curriculum will be delivered by 18 tenured or tenure-track faculty members in the UTSA Department of Mechanical Engineering, nine UTSA support faculty and nine Southwest Research Institute support faculty, and will culminate in a written, research-based dissertation and an oral exam.
Biomedical engineers address topics at the intersection of engineering and biology to advance human health and solve challenges caused by the interaction of living and nonliving materials and systems.
UTSA's undergraduate biomedical engineering program will prepare students for industry and government jobs, and for graduate and health profession education. The biomedical engineering curriculum will be delivered by 10 UTSA tenured or tenure-track faculty and 12 clinicians/scientists from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio.
In addition to the degree program's required courses in science and engineering, UTSA biomedical engineering undergraduates will uniquely be required to take "Clinical Internships in Biomedical Engineering" and "Biomedical Engineering Technology and Product Development." The classes, in combination with the other biomedical engineering classes in the program, will prepare graduates to be innovative, forward-thinking and workforce-ready.
The UTSA Interactive Technology Experience Center camps are for curious youth who are interested in STEM and related topics. This week, campers will study environmental science, robotics and computer science.
UTSA Main Campus
In four sessions of this weeklong day camp for 9 to 13-year-olds, campers will participate in indoor and outdoor activities while exploring ancient technologies from around the world and the new technologies archaeologists are using to discover them.

UTSA Institute of Texan Cultures
This fast pace program is designed for students who took the math placement exam and scored just under the acceptable score for entrance into MAT 1093 or 1214.
UTSA Main Campus
Skilled youth players will get an intense camp experience with Roadrunners baseball coaches. Camp will be limited access, more individualized instruction, in-depth teaching in skills areas and lectures and drill work in the areas of team defense and offense.
UTSA Main Campus, Roadrunner Field
Experience a very different summer camp! The UTSA East Asia Institute is teaching kids Japanese through language, culture, art, crafts, music, cooking and more. For kids age 6-12. For more details, email email@example.com.

Hi, Carol.
I just saw your post and had a look now. There are two things that I have noticed.
First, I think the background is a bit cluttered, with the picture frames looking too busy.
The second point is that I don't think the focus is quite right. The shots just look a bit soft. That may have been your intention, so pardon my comment if that is the case, but I think her eyes need to be little sharper.
For my taste, I think the first shot is too closely cropped, but I am a non cropper!
Overall I like the shots, but they don't quite pop for me.

Friday's and Saturday's World Series Games Are Posted.
Making Progress on the Sunday Games, they should be done by Thursday late eve.
Carmen has two versions for you. One harkens back to the Good Old Days of baseball (not cropped) and another version - Processed and cropped by me.
Visit the People and Stuff gallery for some individual shots...Team photos will be in the Teams gallery
All that remains for Wisconsin are a couple of U14 are a couple of Carmen's games.
If you have a favorite shot that you would like me to 'adjust' in some manner, this can be done for a modest fee.
Wife gets her original cast off tomorrow, only to be replaced by another one.
A couple of games were missed. I try to get to all of them, but I did not. My apologies to those teams that I missed.
The Small Town Baseball photos are
optimized for 5x7 prints.
This means that you will not have trouble cropping,
and for only a few cents more you will get a lot bigger photo.
Be Sure to Visit the Gallery called 'Blob of Parents, Players, and Friends'
That gallery has most of the candid dugout photos that are really hard to get!
A New Year Dawns, Welcome to Happy Home Productions for 2016-2017
Check back often.
New Photos are available a few days after the event,
so poke around and see if your game is posted!

This antidepressant is a SSRI.-
Take care,

Hey sandyshell,
Viibryd, a very new antidepressant, is an SSRI. It works on the neurotransmitter serotonin. Of the other antidepresssants you mention, Viibryd would be most similar to Lexapro, another SSRI. It is not the same as Lexapro, just in the same category as it.
Best wishes,

Heavy rain hit parts of Minnesota over the weekend, and part of Interstate 90 was closed due to flooding. Officials closed all four lanes of I-90 in southwestern Minnesota from Luverne to the South Dakota border early Sunday morning after water up to four feet high from the heavy rains covered the freeway. It was re-opened later Sunday morning. The rain also washed away the spillway at Blue Mounds State Park, north of Luverne. Secondary roads and farm fields were underwater elsewhere in Rock County and other locations Sunday. Strong winds tore down trees throughout southern Minnesota on Saturday as well. New Ulm received just-under 2-inches of rain all weekend.

Background: Antibodies directed against Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ASCA), perinuclear components of neutrophils (pANCA), and porin protein C of Escherichia coli (anti-OmpC) are reported to be associated with disease phenotype and may be of diagnostic importance in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Since limited data are available from Eastern Europe, we assessed the above antibodies in Hungarian IBD patients.
Methods: In all, 653 well-characterized, unrelated consecutive IBD patients (Crohn's disease [CD]: 558, m/f: 263/295, duration: 8.1 ± 10.7 years; ulcerative colitis [UC]: 95, m/f: 44/51, duration: 8.9 ± 9.8 years) and 100 healthy subjects were investigated. Sera were assayed for anti-Omp and ASCA by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and ANCA by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIF). TLR4 and NOD2/CARD15 variants were tested by polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Detailed clinical phenotypes were determined by reviewing the medical charts.
Results: Anti-Omp, ASCA, and atypical pANCA antibodies were present in 31.2%, 59.3%, and 13.8% of CD, 24.2%, 13.7%, and 48.5% of UC patients, and in 20%, 16%, and 5.6% of controls, respectively. ASCA and anti-Omp positivity were associated with increased risk for CD (odds ratio [OR]ASCA = 7.65, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.37–13.4; OROmp = 1.81, 95% CI: 1.08–3.05). In a logistic regression analysis, anti-Omp and ASCA were independently associated with ileal and noninflammatory disease, but not with a risk for surgery or response to steroids or infliximab. A serology dosage effect was also observed. ASCA and anti-Omp antibodies were associated with NOD2/CARD15, in addition to a gene dosage effect. No associations were found in UC.
Conclusions: Serological markers were useful in the differentiation between CD and UC in an Eastern European IBD cohort. Reactivity to microbial components was associated with disease phenotype and NOD2/CARD15 genotype, further supporting the role of altered microbial sensing in the pathogenesis of CD.

Works good but battery issues will keep me from giving this a better review. I had it for 5 weeks and every time i needed it, the battery was dead. I called and was told by customer service that battery can't be left on the charger. You have to remove it once light turns green showing battery is fully charged. What a joke, I can't wait 1 or 2 hours to remove battery from the charger. But if you don't, battery will discharge. I have different brands of battery operated tools that charger will shut off once battery is fully charged. Battery for my drill stay on the charger for weeks and battery is full when i need it. Why can't Worx develop a charger that will do the same is beyond me. I wish i could return this unit. Only 1 month and a half old.
My wife ordered this for me a few weeks ago. The only thing I do not like about it us that it seems a bit longer than my other weed eaters. Besides that, it seems to work very well.
Okay, my first experience with a Trimmer & Edger. After reading all the specifications and information on it's use, I chose the 40V because of the reviews that other happy customers had written. My yard man had health issues and could no longer do my lawn and trimming. I am no spring chicken, and it looked to me that I could possibly do the trimming mysef. So this was my choice, and I, too, am very satisfied with it's overall performance. Interesting that I went to your website to look at the SwitchDriver Cordless Drill and instead bought this tool. Once I pay off this purchase, I have my eye on the cordless drill. That purchase will have to wait. Again, no disappointment with this product. Thanks, Worx
After a bit of contemplation, review and research I decided to purchase this one. Best purchase ever! They don't lie when they say it's comparable to a gas powered trimmer. It's very light-weight, super easy to use and I like the twist feature to convert it to an edger. GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY. I'm planning to purchase a blower and battery-powered push mower next. Awesome brand!!
Bought this about a month ago. I was skeptical because I've only had gas trimmers before. This is just as good, if not better than a gas one. I can trim all I need to with one charge. I can get the rest in an hour or less, that's all it takes to fully charge it. I almost enjoy trimming, now. Almost!
I bought this about 2 months ago. While am very pleased with the battery life, that is about all that is good about it. It does not have auto feed or even bump feed. You have to pull the line out by hand every few minutes as it wears down. Ridiculous design. And that is not even the worst part. Every time I articulate the head for edging the line breaks right at the exit hole every few feet. Then you have to remove the cap and re-thread. What a poor design. Would not recommend.
My wife purchased the 40v trimmer for me as a gift and all I have to say I is thank you wifey and WORZ!!! I LOVE IT! We have 7000 square feet of lawn and this bad boy chopped it down to size off one charge. I was not expecting that. I will definitely be a lifetime customer and purchasing many more products. Oh yea and a 3 year warranty u can't beat that.
Used it once and it works better than my old 18V unit. 3 levels of power is nice and larger string doesn't break as easy. 40V has plenty of power and is so much easier to use than a gas unit. A must for the yard guy that isn't afraid to work. I think if everyone had one of these units, they wouldn't be so lazy and let the weed trimming slide.
I saw this a year ago and wanted to purchase it. I am so gladI finally purchased it and do not know how I could have made it without it.
Bought it in January, used it three times and the line cutting blade broke off, but it didn't matter because the line jams if your load more than 6" of line into it. I thought it would be a good value because I only have a small patch of grass and some weeds in the driveway cracks to tend to, but it couldn't even handle a bimonthly trimming of that small area. Avoid.
I've used this trimmer twice and I'm very happy with it's performance. It makes quick work trimming grass and is light to hold compared to my gas model. I really like the automatic line feed which keeps line usage to a minimum. It's built sturdy and the 3-speed control lets you select the power needed to do the job. Free shipping and three year warranty is a plus. Battery power is like a gas powered trimmer and keeps charge even after the yard is done so it can be used again right away the next time.
I bought this because I was tired of hauling around the cord with my old one. My best friend's husband recommended this and he is correct, it's amazing!
I bought the 40V cordless string trimmer a couple of week ago and I'm very pleased with it. This is the first cordless trimmer I've used and it's so light and easy to operate. Wish I'd done this years ago.
This was my first cordless trimmer and it does an excellent job just as good as my gas trimmer did.
Unfortunately bad product. Was only able to use once. Took me awhile to fiddle with the battery to get a full charge. Used it one time which it ran good not to expectations but good. Since then hv not been able to fully charged battery. Waste of good money. Will not buy another Woxs product again. Far in superior to other products with well known names and for less. Ohhh and other products always provide what they promise and actually last longer than a one time use. Sorry Worx
After using a gas trimmer for years, I decided to try a cordless, battery trimmer. No gas mixing, no cord pulling, much lighter and easier to control, and works just as well as a gas trimmer.
sorry my experience has not been good the auto feed does not work and the manual release does not work my unit has no spring to release line I have to manually pull spool out to get more line very inconvenient. Worx is going to replace the trimmer But I was surprised after all the research I did and bought the upgrade 40v and had this problem I am sure when new unit comes it will work.
Used it for the last month or so - impressed with the power (performs like a gas trimmer). Light weight and easy to use. 3 speeds adds offers much flexibility.
I am not one who normally gives reviews . . . but this is one of the best trimmers I have ever used (battery or gas powered)!!
This trimmer is perfect for my size being 5'8. The tool has a lot of power and long lasting battery. Another cool thing about this battery is the fact it has a battery light indicator letting you know how much power you have left which is great. The tool looks very professional like the gas trimmer but battery operated providing the same amount of power. This is a must buy.
I own two of these great light weight, balanced, but strong 40v trimmers over the last 3 years. I mow and trim over 50 lawns per week during our 6 month growing season here in Minnesota. These amazing trimmers are well built and hold their charge a long time. The lowest speed (of the 3 speeds) is all I need for 95% of my trimming and extends the battery run time a lot. I love that I can re-charge the MaxLithium battery at any per cent of discharge without shortening the battery life. I don't even own a gas trimmer any more. Yay! The only replacement item I would recommend to buy would be the end cap as you will likely rub the ground once in a while. They are very low priced, and will likely last a average home owner a full season. In addition one extra spool preloaded with line is a time saver for me.

WASHINGTON, April 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Photox – the first-ever free, on-demand photo-editing smartphone application that offers users direct access to a full-service suite of professional photo enhancements – was launched today by Washington, DC technology entrepreneur Louisa Imperiale.

"We understand the immediate desire individuals have to post photos on their social networks so it's crucial our skilled touch-up artists provide a near immediate, professional transformation, pending the services requested."
Currently only iPhone compatible, Photox plans to offer an app for Android devices and a web-based version later in 2014. More information is available at www.getphotox.com.

H.B. council revises park sex-offender ban
HUNTINGTON BEACH The city has changed its sex-offender park ban after the law's constitutionality was challenged in court.
City Council members on Tuesday approved an amended ordinance that will allow police Chief Kenneth Small to write case-by-case exemptions to the ban.
A lawsuit filed by a convicted sex offender that names Huntington Beach and other Orange County cities says the ordinances that ban sex offenders from public areas are unconstitutional. In December, Lake Forest repealed its ordinance.
Susan Schroeder, chief of staff for the Orange County district attorney, urged the council to keep the ordinance in place. The district attorney believes the rule is constitutional, she said.
Mayor Connie Boardman, along with Councilman Joe Shaw, voted against the original rule because they questioned whether it was too broad. "I am interested in supporting an ordinance that we're able to defend successfully," she said. "I feel much more comfortable with this."
Councilman Dave Sullivan cast the sole dissenting vote. "We're just succumbing to the threat of a pervert's lawyer," he said.

The Notorious B.I.G. - Life After Death Retrospective Review (CaptPierce)
I meant to do this yesterday, but better late than never!
Delving further into the mafioso gangsta rap side of hip hop Life After Death is the second and last studio album by The Notorious B.I.G., who was murdered three weeks before the albums release. In an area and persona that was not friendly to Christopher Wallace, he surely did take many chances than one casual hip hop listener would imagine he would. Fully self aware of his own shortcomings (Ready to Die's "Suicidal Thoughts) while maintaining a love-no-hos and tote gats like trading cards mentality, Biggie managed to bring to rap a style, flow, delivery, and songwriting still completely unique to him and only him nearly 20 years ago when he first stepped onto the scene.
A cold and rough exterior growing up in Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood in Brooklyn, he offered a gritty, straightforward, and hypnotic way of showing his audience his ambitions, his genius, his shortcomings, his fantasies, and sense of humor that made him so loved by many. In the period of his tremendous debut Ready to Die in 1994 to 1997, Biggie Smalls was definitely a rapper that was greatly admired, studied, and contested by all who stood before him. From his former friend 2Pac, to E-40 and even a small beef with Nas and certain Wu-Tang members, he could see them building their own successes yet keep them at bay completely, such as in the DJ Premier produced "Kick in the Door", reasserting his crown to those that would contest him in his city. Production from the era's glossiest hitmakers (Clark Kent, The Madd Rapper, Diddy) to hip hop heavyweights (Easy Mo Bee, DJ Premier, Havoc, RZA) would fit with ease into any of the situations he would find himself in. Dodging the feds and tax evasion with Ma$e on "Mo Money Mo Problems", laying to rest his enemies on "Long Kiss Goodnight", weaving a ridiculously funny sexcapade on "I Got A Story To Tell", the most startlingly honest depiction of drug trade with "Ten Crack Commandments", or burning down an entire apartment complex to dispose of his enemies with "Niggas Bleed", there wasn't a single bar he wasted or merely used to fill up space.
Having more collaborators than Ready to Die this go around, he managed to bring along the closest of collaborators with him on the mic, such as his girlfriend/protege Lil Kim on "Another" (with a real argument between them being recorded), his childhood friend Jay-Z on their ambitions and love of riches on the insanely quotable "I Love the Dough", Midwest cult favorites Bone Thugs n Harmony to flex his flow on "Notorious Thugs", fellow Bad Boy signees on the Havoc produced "Last Day", and lamenting on the nostalgia with a certain someone on the R. Kelly assisted "Fuckin' You Tonight" to respectively bring out the best in each and everyone on the tracks with him. While Ready to Die showed a rougher side to Biggie, this one saw him as more refined, ready to try on different sounds and still maintain his own unique artistic identity with it all. The fact he did this all with a double disc album no less is a more impressive feat in itself.
Bringing him back down to Earth besides certain storytelling tracks were degrees of reflection and self awareness on the inspirational "Sky's the Limit" with 112 and the mournful "Miss U", remembering all his friends that didn't live to see him at that moment. Death was a heavy topic he dwelled on, with tracks such as "My Downfall" and "You're Nobody (Til Somebody Kills You)" as thoughts of paranoia mixed in with agitated aggression for the enemies he had made over the years that don't want him to succeed. Though he tried keeping the peace between the coasts with "Going Back to Cali" to affirm his beefs with others were completely personal, they did little to stop the events that would unravel later. Nonetheless, Biggie managed to keep a foot and ear into whatever developed sound he wanted to have, putting him ahead of his time for the longest.
The skits on certain tracks do kill the moment though, and while Puffy babbling on certain tracks has become legendary in its own right, certain emotions of songs have the emotion drained from them because him ("What's Beef?") and skits that could nearly be songs in themselves from how long they are ("Kick in the Door") and the album feels itself dragging on being a double LP. Nevertheless, it's astounding to see how he had evolved over the course of two albums, and only makes me sadder to think that he was only getting started. Bittersweet as it may seem, he has inspired countless artists that have used/morphed lyrics word for word and aesthetics from this album to become their own, though always feel like cheap imitations. After 17 years of successfully standing on your own this way, that is the biggest compliment I can give anyone.
This album gets an
@xsyl @Mairick @Illest_Son @Trane @DarkThoughtsGreyDreams Another review to enjoy!
@TMPBeats Not a YG review yet, but one I think you'll enjoy nonetheless.
Tbh your review was tl;dr for me, but I'm sure it was great, as all your threads are. But I love this album. Not as good as RTD to me, but almost every track on this bad boy (pun intended) is a classic one. It's a rare double album that was great as a double album. Glad to see people paying their respekts to tha GOAT
@UrsaFlyMajor-AKA-ThaBareSwagMaximum Haha I don't make them this long, but as a retrospective review of a fallen legend, I had to try covering as much ground as possible, ya know? This is a classic album of any genre, so I think it was kinda necessary. But yes, both are amazing albums and I think this is my favorite of his personally. Without a doubt the best double LP ever too.
His verse on Notorious Thugz has to be one of the best openers to a track ever. Srsly that flow is remarkable!!
Album is one of the few double disk albums i could listen to front and back without skipping a song. Good Review.
Huh, would've thought this would be one of the albums that deserves an A+ really.
@C_Goomba Didn't need to try breaking into ultra fast chopper flow to fit in with them either, it just fit so naturally and uniquely that only he can.
hmm i dunno, i felt like you were gonna give this just a straight A.
guess i was wrong. even though i'm not a fan of Biggie, solid review once again @CaptPierce
@Illest_Son Under suggestions from you, I'mm start doing + and – ratings onto 'em now. But yeah, appreciate the love for them bro. :)
Good review! I agree with it for the most part.
I'm interested to see you're review of YG's album, since I remember that you didn't like it at all, and were hating on YG while I actually enjoyed it a lot
You should review Doe or Die

Effects of changing patterns of forest and impervious land covers on hydrologic regimes of watersheds were evaluated for urban and rural areas of the lower Cedar River drainage near Seattle, Washington. Land cover characterizations were used in a spatially explicit hydrology model to assess effects of land covers on watershed hydrology during presettlement conditions ("full forest cover"), 1991 and 1998. For the presettlement to 1991 period, urban watersheds showed decreases in forest covers (range 63% to 83%) and increases in impervious surfaces (range 43% to 71%). Rural watersheds showed similar patterns but smaller changes, with forest covers decreasing (range 28% to 34%) and impervious surfaces increasing (range 8% to 15%). For the 1991 and 1998 period, changes in forest covers for urban and rural watershed were <24%, with losses in some watersheds and regeneration in others. Impervious surfaces continued to increase, but increases were larger in rural (range 38% to 60%) than in urban watersheds (range 4% to 27%). Flood-frequency curves indicated that discharge rates (m sec−1) for all watersheds were higher in 1991 and 1998 than historical and suggested that chances for floods increase because of changing land covers. The largest increases in discharge rates were in urban watersheds, with rates for 2-year, 10-year, and 25-year recurrence intervals being more than two times greater than the rate during historical conditions. Changes in flow regimes were indicated by presettlement discharge levels of less frequent recurrence intervals (10-year and 25-year) occurring in posturbanization times (1991 and 1998) during more frequent intervals (2-year and 10-year). Normalized flows (m yr−1) of watersheds for 2-year, 10-year, and 25-year recurrence intervals indicate how flow regimes in 1991 and 1998 can change as functions of different areas of land covers. During 1991 and 1998, abrupt increases in flows occurred when forest covers were low (range 17% to 37%) and impervious surfaces were >46%. In contrast, the lowest flows occurred when forest covers were most extensive (range 59% to 81%) and impervious surfaces were <23%. We conclude that our use of spatial characterizations of impervious surfaces and forested covers in a spatially explicit hydrology model provides a robust approach for revealing how variations in different types and spatial distributions of land covers can affect flood regimes and flows of different watersheds.

For its latest ad, Nissan brought together a racecar driver in a 370Z Nismo, a BASE jumper in a wingsuit and a Juke crossover with three computer screens to the Susten Pass in the Swiss Alps. As odd as the combination sounds, the ingredients come together quite nicely for an action-packed display of man versus machine in a race to the end of the pass.

Ebony stud Charlie Mac is pimping at the club when he picks up this dirty black slut in boots, Diva Devine. He takes the slutty bitch back to the crib for some sex, ordering her to strip naked and get down on her knees to suck his cock like a submissive fuck slut should. This girl really is crazy about Charlie's big black dick, slobbering all over it and working it like a pro. Then she gets on top and rides her man, bouncing up and down on top of that black dick until Charlie bends her over and slams her from behind. Diva gets fucked so hard that her eyes roll back in her head and she is reduced to a quivering mass of orgasmic pleasure.
