'Good government' advocate speaks at meeting
Published: Friday, August 15, 2008 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, August 15, 2008 at 1:56 p.m.
THIBODAUX Business leaders got an inside view Wednesday of the years happenings in the state Legislature, a session that civic leaders say was highlighted by ethics-reform measures.
I think we made a lot of progress, Barry Erwin, president and CEO of the Council for a Better Louisiana, told the Thibodaux Chamber of Commerce at its quarterly luncheon.
CABL, a nonprofit organization, addresses and researches quality-of-life issues in the state.
Public outcry over a proposal to raise state lawmaker salaries was a a terrible distraction in a year when Baton Rouge put a stop to lavish wining and dining of politicos by lobbyists, got rid of a sales tax on utility bills for businesses and earmarked hundreds of millions of dollars for highway and coastal-restoration projects, he said.
Asked how legislators and Gov. Bobby Jindal got burned so badly by the issue in the public eye, Erwin expressed bafflement.
To this day, I do not know what they must have been thinking, Erwin said. Usually legislators are very savvy politicians. This one, I just cant quite figure out how it got to the point that it did.
He added, Its created a tension and distraction we really dont need.
The crowd was particularly curious about the political dynamics behind a financial-disclosure law that part of the ethics package. It requires members of boards and commissions even some small, volunteer bodies around the state to disclose certain details about their personal finances.
Members had until June 30 to resign or be subject to the law, about which there is still mass confusion. Members of some boards are confused if the law applies to them.
In Erwins view, internal politics and momentum for ethics reform mushroomed without leaders first scoping out the possible unintended consequences. The level of disclosure could have been even greater, he said, were it not for lobbying forces that intervened so some board members basically just had to disclose the sources of their income, not the amounts.
They wanted it to happen quickly, he said. They just didnt want the perception that anybody was dragging their feet.
Thats a shame, he said, since in his view an abundance of caution caused the great majority of board and commission members to bail.
But while the laws arent perfect, theyre a big step forward, Erwin said. This is particularly true, he said, for those trying to battle the perception that Louisiana is lagging or backward in relation to other states.
While its hard to totally avoid ethical foibles, the law makes the states intent perfectly clear, he said.
The message is we dont tolerate it, we dont condone it, we dont think its just fun and games, he said.

Cherokee museum to hold opening
Published: Thursday, April 20, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 20, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
CHEROKEE -- The Museum of the Cherokee Indian is hosting a grand opening event Friday and Saturday for its newest exhibition, "Emissaries of Peace: The Cherokee and British Delegations of 1762." The exhibition, open through Sept. 30, presents the Cherokee view of British culture and the British view of Cherokee culture through the 18th century memoir of British Lt. Henry Timberlake. Published in 1767, the writings describe his three-month visit to Cherokee.
Funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the exhibition will go to the Smithsonian's Museum of Natural History in Washington next year.
The grand opening event will take place at the museum and at the Cherokee Fairgrounds. The two days of free events will feature Cherokee artisans demonstrating 18th century skills from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, a scholarly symposium from 9 a.m. to noon and 2 to 5 p.m. Saturday and a performance by the Warriors of AniKituhwa at 1 p.m. Saturday.

Aggressive cigarette pack warnings
Government cigarette pack warnings from around the world.
Government cigarette pack warnings from around the world.
Save our country: If the American people "get over it", then our society and country are doomed. She's been proven a liar and a non patriot. Can the country really afford to have her at the helm with the nuclear codes after she paved the way for the Russians to control a large portion of our nuclear production? How about how she performed during the Benghazi incident when she left our ambassador and fellow citizens to fend for themselves after countless appeals for more protection, then directly lied about it to the American people? Is this being responsible and ready to be commander-in-chief? And who really wants her pervert husband in the "house of the people" again? He directly lied many times to the American people.

I have been working with this nonprofit on a monthly basis for the past 5 years--- and they are awesome! They are big enough to handle many community projects, but small enough so that you feel like you are actually working when you are there. I know some places turn down volunteers, and that's sad-- but many places need you to come in and lend a hand--- there's the cool part-- serving the homeless--- but there are lots of other parts-- like doing dishes after the food is prepared- that need to be done to make this place run. Great management. Great heart!

It was great helping out and reaching out to the less fortunate. I was glad to give a smile to at least one person when we handed out food to them. The Saint Francis Center is a wonderful way to do community service and you're able to bond with people. :)

'Dallas' fans gather 'round, because we have some great news for the upcoming season of the hit soap opera. TVGuide just announced that the reboot will be returning for its third season in February 2014.
The first episode of Season 3 will air Monday, Feb. 24 at 9/8c, so be sure to mark your calendars! 'Dallas' will return with eight episodes for its winter run, and then the series, starring Josh Henderson, Jesse Metcalfe, Patrick Duffy, and Linda Gray (note: this is the first season without legend Larry Hagman as J.R. Ewing), will return in the summer for seven more episodes.
As showrunner Cynthia Cidre tells TVGuide, "We will have two season openers and two cliffhangers. We have tried this season to make the show more about Ewing family conflicts -- secrets, lies and betrayals. And I think we have succeeded."
Executive producer Michael Robin also notes, "This is a very sexy season with a roll in the hay and several hook-ups in a hotel. And we have lots of big events: Ewing barbecues and the biggest Southfork wedding yet!"
This definitely sounds like a grand season. After all, it's already been announced that the series is bringing back Judith Light as the controlling Judith Ryland, in addition to '90210's AnnaLynne McCord as a potential love interest for Metcalfe's Christopher Ewing. If that's not enough casting news, Juan Pablo Di Pace will also recur in a "sexy" new role.
Who's excited for the return of 'Dallas'? What do you hope happens this season? Hit the comments and let us hear your thoughts!
i don't see any reason for this to be on, w/o j.r. there is no dallas!!

In the many, many dozens of municipal meetings I've attended over the years, reporter's notebook at the ready, I don't think I've ever seen one with quite so much drama as the Wednesday session of the New London City Council.
There was the chief of police, the city's ranking law enforcement officer, the designated investigator of wrongdoing, accusing City Councilor Michael Buscetto III of trying to undermine her authority and inciting her subordinates against her.
She stopped short of calling him a bully, a favorite label of Buscetto by his political critics.
But Margaret Ackley, the city's first woman police chief, said the threats, harassment and discrimination that have been directed at her by Buscetto are a breach of the city's ethics code and rise to the level of a complaint she intends to bring in a lawsuit.
And then, I thought, as I sat watching the chief level her accusations, you could almost see candidate Buscetto and his ambitions to be the city's first powerful mayor melting away before everyone's eyes, into a little puddle.
It's true they are only accusations. But they are being made by the city's own official maker of allegations. They are serious. They are not going away any time soon, certainly not before the mayoral election.
The City Council set in motion its own investigation into the police chief's allegations. And what with investigations and reports to the council and a civil lawsuit against the city unfolding, it is going to hang over the city administration for a long time.
Given just these serious accusations, why would voters hire as mayor the very subject of the City Council's investigation?
The new job of mayor is so powerful, as set out in the changes to the city charter, that the city could some day end up with a chief executive crippled by harmful accusations or a damaging investigation into personnel issues and policies.
Why start out with one?
Of course he's presumed innocent, but what if he were elected and not exonerated. Why choose a mayor with so much baggage when there are other qualified candidates at the ready?
Surely voters would prefer a mayor who can concentrate from the outset on the many problems that face the city, like the dismal reading scores of its 10th graders, for instance.
Not only did candidate Buscetto and his political ambitions appear to melt away Wednesday night, but you could also get a whiff of the rotting carcass of the Democratic Town Committee.
After all, the old guard of the party, which nominated Buscetto for mayor by a wide margin, should have expected something like this.
It was only just before the last election that Buscetto locked the city's black mayor out of a meeting of Democratic council candidates.
"He attacked my family," Buscetto said at the time, in explanation of his keeping the mayor out of the meeting. "He pulled the race card, and he thought everyone would just roll over."
That atrocious incident was probably one of the reasons Buscetto barely squeaked out another term on the council, finishing seventh out of seven winners.
Many voters, too, were unsettled by the way Buscetto tried to push his way into the vacant city manager's position, one for which he was clearly not qualified.
The other remarkable performance at Wednesday's meeting was by the Democratic Town Committee's chief water carrier, Law Director Thomas Londregan.
Londregan, whose wife and the wife of his son and legal partner, Jeffrey Londregan, are contributors to Buscetto's mayoral campaign, is refusing to make public a letter from the police chief's lawyer describing the specific claims against Buscetto.
Londregan, in refusing to release the letter, which he tucked securely into his inside top suit jacket pocket Wednesday night, before making a show of patting it for safekeeping, cited an exemption in Freedom of Information laws that clearly doesn't apply.
He obviously intends to keep the letter from the public until after Buscetto faces voters in the Democratic primary for mayor next month.
The Day couldn't even get a copy Thursday of the city's audio recording of the police chief's public remarks to the council. A formal Freedom of Information request was demanded.
The Republicans on the City Council ought to vote to get rid of the law director, after they order him to remove that letter from the chief's lawyer from his suit pocket and begin to clear the air of secrets.
I nominate Councilor John Russell to make the motion, since he was the only one to courageously vote Wednesday not to go behind closed doors to discuss the chief's allegations.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

Chicago Streets by alanbeckerWatch
©2006-2016 alanbecker
I took a picture from the back of the car as we were visiting Chicago.. I thought it was a good picture so I painted it later.
It's a watercolor.
It's a watercolor.
I think that this is a very impressive picture! especially since you drew it!
Thats my car, ha ha ha, no really, it is!
Wow, so good! this is, like, right were I live by!
wow very nice! Its Michigan Avenue by the Chicago Art Institute and Sante Fe Building! wow you painted it so accurately I can immediately recognize it~
thaTS so good!
wow awesome !
done in watercolour wow!!! beautiful work!
nice, ur at the art museum on the outer edge of downtown
nice painting
nice painting
Oh you're by Millenium park! You just passed the art museum, haha. I know those lions anywhere. Cool watercolor, I like it!
wow that's really nice !!
i always wonder how people take a photo like this.
wont they get run over by the cars?
or are the cars at a red light?
wont they get run over by the cars?
or are the cars at a red light?
hey heeeeeeeey if i'm not mistaken, that's right in front of the art museum. niiiiiice catch! art museum, hot red car, amazing watercolor -> perfect!
I just shat my pants.
Awesome display of your watercoloring talents.
This has much detail and reflections. Great job! (Must've taken a looong time to get everything right...)
Wow! That's very good.
awesome work
(too awesome for words...)
(too awesome for words...)
I am continually amazed by your talents across the board. Did you learn watercolors when you were born or were you innately that talented??? The amount of detail you managed to include into the painting is astounding! AND WITH WATERCOLORS!!! Jeezle peats, I think I might have to lie down for awhile...
i never liked watercolor much but you are one of the people that makes me want to try it again even though i know ill hate it. lol
wow great job...watercolors are evil ...you really did good with the depth perception.
You're really good at watercolor! Also great perspective!
i thought it was a real picture before i zoom in
really great job!!
really great job!!
Very nice, you capture what it is like driving in that city rather well, though it looks nicer in your pic than in real life (I'm from the burbs of Chicago). In real life I find it nerve wracking to be a passenger even, would never be willing to drive downtown!
ooh, I'm a fan of this one.
YOu got the perspective just right. Nice job.
Very well done, I like it! Good Job!
You are so awesome at watercolour!! I want to like, steal some of that painting power...
.looks almost real. thumbs up!
really nice job!
Yay shiny cars
woooow, This is soooooo good!
Ah, the traffic clog that is Chicago. This really captures it how it truly is.
Awesome reflecting effect.
Damn. Watercolor is hard. Great job!
nicee....i really liked it
Nice. Both the watercolours. I'm bad enough at just painting normally! Haha.
That's a really good picture, especially considering it's watercolour - which I have always thought hard to do. But wow, that's alot of cars though, I've never really seen streets from this perspective - except for in real life - and I had forgotten how many cars there are out there(I live in a 300.000 person country, you see).
woow duude i suck at painting so much this is incredible

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Topic Overview
Scrapes (abrasions) are skin wounds that rub or tear off skin. Most scrapes are shallow and do not extend far into the skin, but some may remove several layers of skin. Usually there is little bleeding from a scrape, but it may ooze pinkish fluid. Most scrapes are minor, so home treatment is usually all that is needed to care for the wound.
Scrapes occur most often in warm weather or warm climates when the skin on the arms and legs is more exposed. They are most commonly caused by accidents or falls but can occur anytime the skin is rubbed against a hard surface, such as the ground, a sidewalk, a carpet, an artificial playing surface, or a road (road rash). School-age children ages 5 to 9 are most affected.
Scrapes can occur on any part of the body but usually affect bony areas, such as the hands, forearms, elbows, knees, or shins. Scrapes on the head or face may appear worse than they are and bleed a lot because of the good blood supply to this area. Controlling the bleeding will allow you to determine the seriousness of the injury. Scrapes are usually more painful than cuts because scrapes tear a larger area of skin and expose more nerve endings.
How a scrape heals depends on the depth, size, and location of the scrape. Occasionally the injury that caused the scrape will also have caused a cut or several cuts that may need to be treated by a doctor. For more information, see the topic Cuts.
When you have a scrape:
- Stop the bleeding with direct pressure to the wound.
- Determine if other tissues, such as blood vessels, nerves, tendons, ligaments, joints, bones, or internal organs, have been injured.
- Determine if you need to be evaluated and treated by a doctor.
- Clean the wound and remove any dirt or debris to prevent infections (both bacterial skin infections and tetanus, or lockjaw), decrease scarring, and prevent "tattooing" of the skin. (If dirt or other debris is not removed from a scrape, the new skin heals over it. The dirt can then be seen through the skin and often looks like a tattoo.)
- Determine if you need a tetanus shot.
Check your symptoms to decide if and when you should see a doctor.

An increasing number of applications execute over a set of computing and communication resources and have end-to-end quality of service (QoS) requirements. Given a system and an application with specific flow structure and QoS requirements, this paper describes an integrated QoS-based allocation and routing algorithm that determines which computing and communication resources to utilize for this application. More specifically, the algorithm finds the best flow path for an application, subject to application flow and QoS constraints, so as to optimize system objectives (e.g., minimize total system utilization or balance the load). The paper also introduces a Δ-optimal algorithm that, relative to the optimal algorithm, significantly reduces the run-time of the algorithm with a minor degradation in the optimality of the solution. The Δ-optimal algorithm is guaranteed to produce a result that is at most Δ-units sub-optimal. The paper also analyzes the optimality and run time of the solution as a function of Δ for two multimedia scenarios. Rules of thumb for setting Δ are also given

Union Steps Up For K-Rod
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla.—The baseball players' union will be keeping a close eye on how the Mets use closer Francisco Rodriguez this season.
Michael Weiner, head of the Major League Baseball Players Association, said Tuesday that the Mets cannot deliberately prevent Rodriguez's $17.5 million contract option for 2012 from vesting. The option will automatically kick in if he finishes 55 games this season and his deemed healthy by doctors.
Mets manager Terry Collins said last week that the option will have no bearing on how he uses his closer, regardless of how much money is at stake. But if that changes, expect the union to file a grievance.
"There's arbitration precedent that makes clear that a team cannot sit a player down or decline to use them in order to prevent him from earning a bonus or having a year vest," Weiner said. "But again, I have every expectation that the Mets are going to fully honor their commitment."
Weiner, who will visit all 30 teams this spring, met with Mets players for more than 90 minutes before their workout here Tuesday.
When asked afterward about the Mets' financial problems, he said he hoped the team would maintain a high payroll but was not overly concerned about it.
"If there's something that would prevent them from participating as they normally would in [the free-agent market], that's a concern," he said. "At this point, we've been assured through the commissioner's office that the Mets are going to be able to operate as they have in the past."
Mets principal owner Fred Wilpon and his associates are being sued for up to $1 billion by the trustee representing victims of the Bernard Madoff fraud. They are trying to raise cash by selling up to 25% of the team.
Despite looming uncertainty about the Mets' financial future, Weiner said his discussion with players focused almost exclusively on upcoming collective bargaining negotiations. The current agreement is set to expire on Dec. 11.
Weiner said he doesn't expect one issue to dominate negotiations this year. But he said a number of smaller issues will need to be addressed, including revenue sharing, health and benefit plans, pensions and on-field issues such as instant replay and the postseason format.
When asked if he was in favor of expanding the playoffs to include more teams, Weiner said, "If you ask a particular individual, 'Are you in favor of expanded playoffs?' most people would say, 'Yes, under certain circumstances.' There are some players who, believe it or not, want to expand the playoffs in order to enhance the integrity of division races, because they think the current system doesn't give enough credit to winning your division.…Both sides need to come to the table with some ideas."

Theater The Agony and the Irony
posted by June 19 at 14:30 PMon
An eagle-eyedeared?commentor on this post, about Intiman's mysterious new Disney musical, says:
Sher mentioned working on a new musical adaptation of "The Huncback of Notre Dame" in Seattle on KUOW last week. Could that be the Disney musical?
Of course, if Intiman were to produce Hunchback, it'd be the greatest stroke theatrical irony since Molière keeled over and died while playing a hypochondriac.
The last Hunchback musical in Seattle was, of course, this Hunchback, from 1998. As Dave Schmader once wrote:
Hunchback captured the imagination of everyone whos ever wondered, Whats the worst thing that could happen if a New-Agey blues rocker with a lot of money and a weird Hunchback fixation decided to take it to the stage?, and left its small but lucky audiences cheering a world that would allow such a monstrosity to come to fruition.
Please God, let Intiman's new Disney musical be Hunchback. And please let it star Styx frontman Dennis DeYoung.

doesn't work for me neither. Wonder who voted it worked ....
for me it works, you just need to enter in -> Appearance -> Widgets and drag the google translate button in your sidebar.
you will need also to save changes at the google translate settings page.
i did :/ but it still didnt work. Even cleared cache a few times and refreshed.
step1: install plugin via wordpress admin upload.
step2: activate said plugin.
step3: go to appearances > widgets > drag the plugin widget to the sidebar. Even clicked saved as well.
step4: go to the plugin settings and save there as well
step5: clear cache, and refresh browser
It tells me the plugin needs to be activated which it already is :/ hence not working.
I did an update, should work for everyone now.
To get it you will need to de-activate,delete the plug-in and re-download the new version,

One Flatbush thoroughfare may have gone a little too green for local activists.
At the December meeting of Community Board 14, board Chair Alvin Berk questioned the planting of trees on a newly installed median on Ocean Avenue, just north of Church Avenue.
The median is intended as a traffic calming device, and was installed in conjunction with changes being made along Church Avenue and nearby streets by the city's Department of Transportation (DOT) to reduce traffic congestion along the busy street.
"I question whether it's safe," Berk noted after Transportation Committee Chairperson Morris Sacks delivered a report on the most recent public meeting held with respect to the Church Avenue Congested Corridor study. Berk said he was "astonished" to see the trees on the median.
"Parks was asked to evaluate whether they could plant on some of the medians," Sacks replied.
"That's from an arboreal perspective. What about from a traffic safety and visibility and potential impact perspective?" Berk went on.
"They didn't think about potential impacts when they designed this, so why would they think about the trees?" Sacks responded.
While the agency did not reveal the thinking behind the planting of the trees, this paper was told that DOT's borough engineering division will survey the location and install additional signage on the island if it's determined to be necessary to improve safety, according to the agency, which also said that questions about specific types of plantings should be directed to the city's Department of Parks & Recreation.

Something mystical must have seeped through L.A.'s smog near the dawn of the 1990s. What else would account for the birth of a heady hip-hop movement, more god-like than gangsta?
No, this is not another ode to Dr. Dre and the N.W.A. legacy, West Coast icons though they remain. But while they capitalized off of L.A.s legendary, gang-banging lifestyle, a collective of unheard MCs were busy representing the Good Life.
Like the steady proliferation of wack MCs, rap documentaries flood the digital airspace faster than it takes to download exclusive footage nowadays. To the contrary, This is the Life should be required viewing for a hip-hop generation stuck on YouTube.
It chronicles the largely unknown but influential underground scene that organically sprouted in December 89 from a health food spot called the Good Life Café in Leimert Park. Responsible for spawning lyrical giants including the members of Freestyle Fellowship (Myka 9, Aceyalone, Self Jupiter, Peace), Chali2na, Medusa, Ellay Khule, Chillin Villain Empire, Volume Ten, Pigeon John and a host of others, the weekly Good Life freestyle hip-hop battles became the breeding ground for the Left Coasts fertile, underground intelligentsia. Not only did the scene uplift a culture, it impacted an industry even as it remained oblivious to the narrowly defined aesthetics of commercial rap.
As a result, the majority of the Good Life MCs never received their just shine West Coast sunsets notwithstanding. Now available on DVD (at GoodLifeLove.com), the award-winning 2007 documentary which also makes its cable premiere tonight on Showtime, Fri., April 3 aims to change that.
We talked with the films director, Ava DuVernay, who witnessed it all as one-half of the Good Life duo Figures of Speech, to see how she found herself cast in the middle of a movement it took hindsight to truly appreciate.
When most people think about West Coast hip-hop in the 90s, gangster rap is the first thing that comes to mind. Did the Good Life scene spark as a direct alternative to that?
They were really running parallel. But the thing is, at the time in Los Angeles, the Good Life scene was the big deal in town. If you lived here, and you were into hip-hop at a certain age, you had the Good Life, you were about that type of lyrical styling, styling really fast, that moving, kind of creative lyrical quality. Gangster rap was kind of corny, but that was what the radio was loving and that was what people were seeing from us. But if you lived here and you were into hip-hop, nobody was really trying to do that.
Thats kind of like Atlanta now. The sound that Atlanta is known for nationally and internationally, people in Atlanta who are really into hip-hop are like This is so corny.
Exactly. And I think you find those kinds of movements when that happens. Something is plucked out by the mainstream, then the whole city becomes known for that. And youre sitting around like, Huh? Really? So its easy to see why mainstream media picked up on the violence and the whole gangster thing. But the fact is L.A. has become known for that; you reference people in the 80s and 90s thinking gangster rap; I would venture to say even now when people think of Los Angeles hip-hop they think of Snoop and Dre and Cube. It aint changed. So its kind of like the stereotyping, and thats really why I made the film. The fact that people dont know all thats really going on out here is crazy to me.
How were you introduced to the Good Life?
I was a student at UCLA, just like a regular college girl who liked hip-hop, and a friend of ours at UCLA was like, I heard about this place, Im gonna go rhyme but I heard they can boo you off so I need to bring people with me so I dont get booed. Im like, Thats whats up. Well go. So it was maybe like six of us who went with him, and he got booed. And he never went back again. Me and a friend of mine, we were just riveted. We loved the energy and the people and the whole spirit of the place, and we continued to go back, just as audience members, and then I was like, Why are there no women rapping? Let me just go ahead and try it. So we got up with just one verse one night and shut the place down and from there our group [Figures of Speech] was made.
Looking back now, was there a specific night or moment during the Good Life that you realized how historic and monumental what you all were doing would become?
No, it was all in hindsight. I mean at the moment that youre nineteen and youre hanging out with your friends and youre all really dope MCs, and you know, were battling people, and theyre driving me across town to battle some chick in a parking lot you know that kind of thing youre just in the moment. And thats what was so great about the Good Life, it was so in the moment. Through the whole thing we were so present and right there with it, and I think that part of the reason why it might not have proliferated as a profit-making thing is because nobody was thinking strategically. No one was thinking about long-term careers; we were just trying to battle next Thursday. It was all in hindsight. Eventually I went and I graduated from school and I started my career as a publicist, but theres been no place else that Ive found creatively that has that energy, whether it be music, film, or anything. It was just a really special place, and I started to realize that as I got out into the world more.
As time went on, certain Good Life artists began to feel like their style was being co-opted by commercial artists at the time, too. There was Ganjah K who carried an oversized weed pipe he actually named Big Baby long before The Chronic dropped. Then there was the situation involving Ice Cube, who allegedly began biting Volume Tens delivery. And Bone Thugz N Harmony got blamed for flowing like Freestyle Fellowship. Did that consume a lot of the talk and energy surrounding the Good Life at the time?
Yeah, I mean at the time there definitely was a feeling of the Good Life was the hot place in L.A. It started just with kids in South Central and the surrounding areas and wed come together, and when record companies started to hear about us, then you look in the parking lot and youve got the cast of Beverly Hills 90210 standing out there and youre like what the hell is going on? It started to get like that in the later years when it was just like a hot place where hipsters from all over would come and hang out. It kinda reminded me of stories you hear about the Harlem Renaissance like it was a club with all black people and, you know, white people started to come. It was like the hip thing to do, and so it started to be that.
Thats when you started to see styles getting bit, and some would turn up on the radio, like, What? That sounds like us. And so yeah, there was definitely, at that time, a big distrust of record labels and the industry. And I think thats a lot of the reason the deals that did happen fell apart because you had these artists who were completely independent, who had their own culture, who had their own place to perform, who were their own celebrities within this world, now you got these outside people coming in, biting styles, taking things away, and then they turn around and try to give you a deal. Like all the deals fell apart because we were so empowered, it wasnt like, Please give us a deal. It was more like, Aight, maybe Ill talk to you. It was ridiculous; its so stupid when you look back. It was like a lot of swagger, and I think that the record companies maybe found Good Life artists difficult to deal with. So it might have been easier to play their music for somebody else who was easier to deal with and have them bite their style which happened. And so it was a lot of distrust around the industry and a lot of uneasiness about it happening at the time, and I think thats what started the kind of [jagged edges] of the movement. The outside came in and it ruined it a little bit.
Theres definitely a thread of that whole culture versus commerce thing throughout the documentary, so how do people feel about it looking back on it now, and the fact that outside of a few cats like Chali2na and Cut Chemist (Jurassic 5), the movement just kinda got sideswiped or commercially overlooked?
I think there is definitely a period of bitterness and saltiness, no doubt. How did this happen? you know. We were right there on the edge. But now I hope this came across in my documentary theres really a peace about these cats knowing what their contribution to the movement is. Theres so much respect when they walk into clubs, and when they perform its always packed. They fly all over the world. It hasnt really caught on in places other than L.A. in the United States, but literally Ellay Khule can go to Berlin and theres a contingent of people waiting for him to get off the plane. Thats how big they are. Australia is ridiculous. In Japan, theres a Good Life in Kyoto; theyve redone it. Its like a national movement.
Someone in the film talked about how jazz musicians had to go abroad to get respect. Its really similar. I think for whatever reason the international audiences, they dont really connect to our bling culture, they dont get the rims; so they really pay more attention to what youre saying. For whatever reason these artists are saying more than what is on the radio. So I think because there has been such a great international response because theyre like legends, because they still make their albums, and they tour, folks have found the peaceful place where this is our level of success and were good with it.
Its almost funny how you all saw what you were doing as culture more than capital, because when you look at hip-hop now even on a local, underground scale everybody is thinking strategically. Theres almost too much strategic thinking and not enough pure love of craft. Do you imagine that coming back around, or does that seem like a done deal to you in hip-hop?
For me personally, that same kind of creative fashion and independent spirit, Ive kind of put into film. For hip-hop, it has been somewhat damaged. Youre right, every kid thats rhyming has a YouTube video, is Twittering about his rhymes, and its like wow, the digital kind of strategy and trying to get a deal, is that taking away from [the art]? None of that was in our head, nobody was thinking about how to get to the next level. We were just thinking about this is fun, so we were our own stars. We had an audience. You know? Most kids wont even perform in front of other people anymore. I mean we had an audience every week, it was a concert every week. You had to be ready, you had to have your beats, you had to be dope or you get booed please pass the mic! and so it was very much its own culture and thats what I tried to show in the film. It wasnt really about the outside. I wasnt worried about taping it and sharing it on YouTube to the world. It was just about the people who were there. And I think some of thats been lost in hip-hop because it is so international; it is so huge. Were all in the digital age. Some of the intimacy is gone. I just hope people who are practicing hip-hop right now ,who are rhyming and younger, give back. I mean, I feel like an old-timer. Dont you feel old? What happened to hip-hop? When I talk to my 19-year-old brother about hip-hop he starts to yawn like, Really? Were hip-hop old timers, and to even hear myself talking about the old days of hip-hop its like ridiculous, but its true.
Lets catch up with everybody for a little bit. I know Myka 9 (of Freestyle Fellowship) has a new album out (1969), and you mentioned that Ellay Khule still travels a lot. Whats going on with the other Good Life cats featured in the documentary?
Basically, everyone still performs except me (laughs). Lets talk about Cut Chemist the only white boy up in the place, whom everybody is so proud of, was such a big part of the family. We kinda showed in the movie how when it started out people were a little mistrustful, like what are you doing? Now he travels the world, hes about to go back on another world tour, he just sold out the Hollywood Ball last summer. Let me tell you how big that is: They dont even have hip-hop at the Hollywood Ball. Hes not even an MC, hes a DJ. He sold the thing out. Thats how huge he is out here. Cut and Chali, and the whole Jurassic 5 thing. Chali is about to come out with a whole new album this summer. I heard it, its bananas. A lot of stuff with Damien Marley, hes been recording with Mos Def, its all over the place.
Myka 9 of Freestyle Fellowship, the O.G., out with a new album (1969), really beautiful, hes touring. Ellay Khule, huge. I mean Ellay Khule puts out a new album every two to three months. Hes huge in Germany. Pigeon John, another big part of our movement, he dropped his album the same week our movie dropped [in March]. Chillin Villain Empire which is an OG crew we chronicled that does the Calistylics one lives in France and one lives in Fresno, and from France to Fresno they still record and send MP3s and tapes back and forth. And they put out albums twice a year. So everybody is still doing it.
What about Medusa?
Medusa is the queen. I think shes dropping an album in April. She performs in L.A. a lot, and when you see Medusa you have to be prepared. She has an amazing band on stage with her and shes probably going to be wired up and shes gonna have the hat and the backup singers and shes gonna kill it. She performs quite a bit.
Everybodys been really supportive of the film. Weve been going to festivals together. Really this is their story. Aceyalone (of Freestyle Fellowship) is a part of it and has an album dropping in a couple of weeks, Aceyalone and the Lonely One. So yeah, its still going.

Spark Unlimited hiring for "bold new take" on "established" console series
Just a week after it announced its latest project as Lost Planet 3 from Capcom, Spark Unlimited has posted job listings for a "bold new take" on a "established" third-person console franchise.
One listing on Gama for its lead combat designer said the game would be a a third-person action slasher with horror elements.
The listing asks for an "understanding in sword fighting combat tactics, martial arts and weapons," adding that experience in Unreal 3 with at least one shipped game is a preferance, suggesting UE3 could be used for the title.
A second listing suggests multiplayer or co-op for the game.
Other listings include for lead designer, senior designer and character animator.
Spark confirmed last week it was working on Lost Planet 3 for an early 2013 release on PS3, 360 and PC.
Thanks, GAF.

An efficiency-optimized modulation scheme and design method are developed for an existing hardware prototype of a bidirectional dual active bridge (DAB) dc/dc converter. The DAB being considered is used for an automotive application and is made up of a high-voltage port with port voltage V1, 240 V ≤ V1 ≤ 450 V, and a low-voltage port with port voltage V2, 11 V ≤ V2 ≤ 16 V; the rated output power is 2 kW. A much increased converter efficiency is achieved with the methods detailed in this paper: The average efficiency, calculated for different voltages V1 and V2, different power levels, and both directions of power transfer, rises from 89.6% (conventional phase shift modulation) to 93.5% (proposed modulation scheme). Measured efficiency values, obtained from the DAB hardware prototype, are used to verify the theoretical results.

|"8-9-3" on sale now
The name for Japanâs most famous organized crime syndicate, the Yakuza, actually comes from a card game from Japanâs samurai era called Oicho-Kabu. It is this game and its violent legacy that informs "8-9-3," the new Yakuza graphic novel by two-time Xeric Award-winning writer/artist Jack Hsu, who spoke with CBR News about the project.
The rules of Oicho-Kabu are similar to those of Blackjack or Baccarat. âThe objective is to reach nine with the second number of the sum of the hand,â Hsu told CBR. A hand of eight, nine and three adds up to 20, the worst hand in the game. And in Japanâs traditional form of counting, eight, nine and three translate to âya,â âkuâ and âza.â âIn a culture steeped in symbolism, the moniker âyakuzaâ was adopted by the organized criminals of Japan to show their pride in being social outcasts.â
â8-9-3â tells the story of Shin, a prized assassin of the Sakurayama clan. Shinâs father had been the clanâs second in command, and when Shinâs parents were murdered by a rival clan, Sakurayama boss Hiroshi-san took the orphaned Shin under his wing. âBecause of this, Shin swears absolute loyalty to Hiroshi-san and dutifully carries out his bossâs bidding without question,â Hsu said. âHowever, deep down Shin struggles with the criminal existence he was born into and patiently awaits deliverance - the day Hiroshi-san steps down, so he could start a new life.â
The seeds of â8-9-3â were sown in 2003 when Hsu was working as a storyboard artist on âSpider-Man 2.â At the time, his work schedule left Hsu little opportunity to work on projects of his own, but on one particular weekend, the artist found time to bang out a few sketches. âOne of the drawings I did was this yakuza character with a Kanji design of the name â8-9-3,ââ Hsu said. âThe yakuza had fascinated me ever since my teenage years in Japan, so I kept sketching and developing a world around this character. Before I knew it, I had generated a big pile of drawings and story ideas and â8-9-3â was born.â

â8-9-3â was partially funded by a grant from the Xeric Foundation, a non-profit organization which offers financial assistance to comics creators who self-publish their work. âI submitted six Xerox copies of my work in progress last March along with all the required paperwork: a story outline, a budget breakdown, and a purpose statement,â Hsu explained. Three months later, Hsu was âthrilled and honoredâ to receive an acceptance letter from the foundation.
â8-9-3â is not Hsuâs first Xeric award; he and his wife Julie Yeh had won one for their all-ages book âPoppieâs Adventures: Serpents in Paradise.â Written by Yeh and illustrated by Hsu, âPoppieâs Adventuresâ was the coupleâs first book, and the project marked the beginning of their own independent publishing company, Way Out Comics (â8-9-3â itself is published under the banner Automaton, a division of Way Out). Despite Way Outâs repeated recognition from the Xeric Foundation, Hsu and his wife are no strangers to the perils of working in the independent comics press. âBeing small and part-time, we produce only one title every few years, so we have little brand recognition,â Hsu admitted, saying that the long hiatus between projects often forces them to re-brand their company from scratch with each new series.

Distribution is an even bigger hurdle. âBecause Diamond is basically the only distributor on the market, itâs not easy competing for retailersâ attention in the âPreviewsâ catalog when the big publishers eat up most of the real estate,â Hsu said. But with â8-9-3,â Way Out has made the leap into the digital comics arena, and Hsu hopes the new paradigm will be more small press-friendly. âIn addition to the book, â8-9-3â will also be available in Appleâs App Store through the Genus Kamikaze! Reader. Iâm hopeful that the new medium will have a far wider reach to potential readers than the brick-and-mortar model, especially for a small publisher like me.â
After the series wraps up, Hsu may well return to the world of â8-9-3.â The â8-9-3â world has many more exciting potential storylines,â Hsu said. âIâm parsing through them and hoping to share them with the readers in the not-too-distant future.â
Hsu continues to work as a storyboard artist for Sony Pictures Animation, and his most recent project, âCloudy With a Chance of Meatballs,â hits theaters this September. The writer/artist is also currently developing comics projects in the horror and western genres.
The 144-page â8-9-3â graphic novel is on stands now, and chapter one is available on Genus Kamikaze!

In previous papers I have discussed the concurrent changes in the output of urine and in the blood and urinary metabolites of animals and edematous patients treated with diuretic drugs.1 The following drugs produced increases in the output of urine and in the chloride content of the blood and urine: sodium bismuth tartrate, theophylline, merbaphen and salyrgan. Bismuth caused the same effects in normal and chloride-saturated rabbits but much less pronounced changes in those deprived of chloride. In edematous patients the increase in the amount of urinary urea and of uric acid after the administration of bismuth paralleled the diuresis, and the concentration of these metabolites, the dilution of the urine. The hemoglobin, sugar, urea and uric acid contents of the blood showed no changes, or only negligible ones, after the administration of bismuth.
The effects on the chloride content during diuresis due to digitalis differed. This drug reduced
