- Gus Zoppi Music CenterGuitar Instructor, 1994 - present
- Arts Academy in the WoodsGuitar Instructor, 2003 - 2010
I started playing guitar when I was nine and it has been my best friend ever since. Recently I have been focused on performing, writing and recording a wide range of styles/genres. Currently I am working on several projects including a Tim McGraw tribute band called Allen as Tim , a jazz trio, and solo fingerstyle which you can hear on my website.
As much as I love playing the guitar and making music I also get great joy in showing others to do the same. I have dedicated my life my instrument. Along the way there have been many struggles to get to the next level. My teaching style has always been to teach my students what they want to know while working in what they need to know all as fast, efficient and enjoyable as possible. You can find me teaching at Gus Zoppi Music Center in Sterling heights most week days. I am also available for lessons on the web via GOOGLE HANGOUT, SKYPE, FACETIME or from my home in Ferndale, MI.

Jasminum abyssinicum
Jasminium abyssinicum (Forest jasmine) is a species of jasmine, in the family Oleaceae.
Jasminum abyssinicum is a strong to slender woody climber in high-altitude montane forests, climbing into the forest canopy which stems that can be robust up to 13 cm in diameter. The leaves are opposite, trifoliolate; leaflets are broadly ovate with a distinct driptip, dark glossy green above, hairless except for pockets of hairs in the axils of the leaves. The flowers are produced at the ends twigs or in axils of leaves. The flowers are white, tinged with pink on the outside, sweetly scented with a corolla with 5 or sometimes 6 elliptic lobes. The fruits are a single- or bi-lobbed berry 7 mm long, fleshy, glossy black.[1]
Jasminum abyssinicum is native to Africa from Ethiopia to KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.[2] It has been reported from Burundi, Cameroon, Rwanda, Congo-Kinshasa, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Natal and Transvaal.[3]
The Maasai people of Kenya use this plant as a medicinal remedy for wounds.[4] It is also used as a traditional treatment for the parasitic nematode Hemonchus contortus in sheep.[5]

Kochadaiiyaan (3 Days) First Weekend Collections At Box Office
Rajinikanth has managed to get grand opening for his Kochadaiiyaan (Kochadaiyaan) at Box Office. The negative feedbacks over the quality of the film have been ignored by Tamil audience. As a result, the first weekend (3 days) collections have been great for the film.
Kochadaiiyaan got fantastic opening on the release day in India. The film managed to make Rs 10 crore+ at Indian Box Office. It approximately made Rs 2 crore in Chennai alone. The occupancy for the film was above 90% in Tamil Nadu.

In Karnataka, Kochadaiiyaan got fantastic reception and ran into packed houses in 80% of the cine halls on the release day. The negative feedback had an impact on it collections on the second day. But the third day has been wonderful as it crossed 85% occupancy.
The first weekend has been good. It has reportedly made Rs 1.30 crores in the first weekend in Karnataka. However, the situation for Kochadaiiyaan in Kerala was slightly different with some straight Malayalam films rocking at Box Office. Continue reading the story on the slideshow...

No licences granted to Chinese company for deep sea fishing – Ramsammy
No licences have been granted to any Chinese company for deep sea fishing although various companies have expressed interest, according to Minister of Agriculture Dr Leslie Ramsammy.
"No licence will be granted for open fishing. If given, it will be for specific species," Ramsammy told Stabroek News yesterday, while noting that there has been one group that has expressed interest and that the ministry has asked for a research proposal.
In November of last year, he had said the government was not considering granting fishing licences but that a Memorandum of Understanding was granted to an unnamed Chinese company to undertake a study of seafood that would allow for fishing that would not impact the local industry.
The minister was at the time responding to concerns expressed by the Guyana Human Rights Association over reports that the government was considering the licensing of Chinese fishing vessels in this country's waters.
Head of the Fisheries Department, Denzil Roberts, while noting that all foreign licences are dealt with at the minister's level, echoed Ramsammy's statements.
"The Fisheries Department and the Ministry of Agriculture have no agreement with Chinese companies for potential licences to be granted," he explained in an e-mail response.
"We have been approached by several individuals and groups and we have advised them to research the deep water resources and apply for species specific licences," he added.
Neither Ramsammy nor Roberts was able to give any specifics on whether the unnamed Chinese company had sent in any information as yet and the status of the research.
In recent years, research has shown a depletion in prawns and seabob and Ramsammy said this meant that no licence would be granted if those species were included in licence proposals. He had also acknowledged that while no licences have been granted to any Chinese vessels for deep sea fishing, monitoring was a difficult task. He had told Stabroek News that there was no way to effectively monitor what is being fished in the deep seas due to poor enforcement.
Meanwhile, recent pirate attacks have seen fishermen once more calling for more to be done. Most recently, Ramsammy disclosed that due to the criticisms over the state of piracy along the coast, trawler owners will not be granted licences without a Vessel Monitoring System (VMS). The 24-hour monitoring systems, which are expected to be installed by the beginning of 2015, are being seen as an aid in the regulation of fishing.

Early in 2009, Polarize was the first fake Polaroid photo app to hit the App Store. I call them fauxlaroids. Since then, many other apps have been released and the fauxlaroids has been a popular and enduring style of iPhoneography.
Instant photos are a classic Life In LoFi style — both analog and digital. Keep reading for our list of five of the best fauxlaroid photo apps.
A Gallery of Fauxlaroids
Instant photography was pioneered years ago way back in 1947 by Edwin land, the inventor of Polaroid. With a Land camera, each piece of film was essentially its own darkroom. For the first time in photography, users could shoot, process, and share an image all within minutes. Sound familiar?
More than any other modern style of photography, iPhoneography and mobile photography share this pedigree. On a much grander and faster scale, mobile photographers can now shoot, process, and share their images, often within seconds.
Some of the earliest popular iPhone photo apps even tried to re-create the look of the classic Polaroids. While arriving late in the game, the most iconic of these is the look of Polaroid's SX-70 cameras and the slightly washed out T600 film. It's that instantly recognizable, classic square format image with the textured tabbed frame that most of us expect when we think of Polaroid.
Over the years, there have been many fauxlaroid photo apps in the App Store. Some are amazing re-creations of the SX-70 experience. Others are downright hideous.
I think it's great to shoot iPhone photography that's a fitting homage to the original instant photography. Here are five great fake Polaroid photo apps so you can capture and share like it's 1975.
ShakeIt Photo
ShakeIt Photo is one of the remaining classic iPhoneography apps from the early days of the App Store. It's by far the easiest fauxlaroid to use. Simply shoot or import and watch it process before your eyes. The frame textures look good. People who like ShakeIt Photo – I'm one of them – love the lush and rich colors the app creates. It's not how the T600 film actually looks. It's much more vibrant here. It looks like how we remember it looked. Triggering that memory is a powerful emotional connection that this simple photo app makes.
ShakeIt Photo is $1.99 in the App Store.
App Store Link: ShakeItPhoto – Banana Camera Co.
All five of these apps do an excellent job of re-creating the iconic SX-70 frame. Polamatic goes further by letting you add wear, use, and damage effects to the frame. Polamatic let you choose a pristine frame, a damaged and de-wrinkled frame, and everything in between. Polamatic also let you add "light leaks" that look a lot like damaged, unevenly processed prints. It's a subtle effect and a nice touch.
Polamatic is $0.99 in the App Store with in-app purchases.

D800 Nikon Feature Presentation

Mon 02-Apr-12 08:46 PM | edited Mon 02-Apr-12 10:54 PM by gmth
For those who are still considering the D800 or those, like me, who already have it, this presentation of the key features is quite interesting...
The D800/D800E crop comparison is quite impressive.
You may have already seen it, if not it's worth a few minutes.
Yes, it's presented by Nikon - but as they say - "it's not bragging if you can do it".

Helen Clark became the Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme on 17 April 2009, and is the first woman to lead the organization. She is also the Chair of the United Nations Development Group, a committee consisting of the heads of all UN funds, programmes and departments working on development issues.
Helen Clark: Speech at Launch of UNDP Regional Bureau of Arab State Report on "Water Governance in the Arab Region: managing scarcity and securing the future"
Helen Clark, UNDP Administrator
Speech at Launch of UNDP Regional Bureau of Arab State Report on
"Water Governance in the Arab Region: managing scarcity and securing the future"
9.20 am, Thursday 28 November 2013
Manama, Bahrain
I am pleased to launch this new report from UNDP's Arab States Bureau: Water Governance in the Arab Region: managing scarcity and securing the future. I thank the Kingdom of Bahrain for partnering with us today to bring attention to water governance issues in this region — a topic of tremendous importance. I also thank the Swedish International Development Co-operation Agency for their support in the production of this Report.
The international community has long been committed to promoting access to safe drinking water as a basic right for all[1]. To achieve that, sustainable water management is essential.
When world leaders agreed on the Millennium Declaration in 2000, they called for an end to "the unsustainable exploitation of water resources, by developing water management strategies at the regional, national and local levels which promote both equitable access and adequate supplies." Under Millennium Development Goal Seven, a specific target calls for halving, by 2015, the proportion of the population without sustainable access to improved drinking water and basic sanitation.
While the world as a whole has met the target of halving the proportion of people without access to improved sources of drinking water, the target has not been met in the Arab States region. While overall access to such water sources stands at about 82 per cent, it only increased by less than two percentage points between 1990 and 2010. As well, progress has been uneven within the region: a number of countries are on track to meet the water target, but some actually saw a movement further away from the target in that time period.
Faster progress was made on the MDG target for improving access to sanitation, but, as this Report stresses, almost a quarter of the Arab States' population still lacks access to improved sanitation. Disparities in access to improved sanitation between rural and urban areas remain striking.
Concerned by the slow and uneven progress globally in achieving the water and sanitation targets, the United Nations General Assembly declared 2013 as the International Year of Water Co-operation[2] to strengthen dialogue, raise awareness, and advance progress towards water-related goals. This Report also responds to that call by setting out the particular challenges for the Arab States region and recommendations on how to address them.
While emerging challenges to water quality and quantity, such as climate change, are being experienced in many countries, those in the Arab States region are of particular concern as water scarcity is already acute here. Increased demand for water from expanding populations and economic growth is likely to deepen what is often described as a regional "water crisis".
For sustainable and equitable access to improved water and sanitation services to be achieved, the Report launched today emphasizes the need to focus not only on increasing the supply of water, but also on promoting its efficient use and allocation. Accordingly, the Report argues that much greater attention must be placed on water governance and management.
Specifically, the Report calls for:
- Integrated governance approaches which address the links between water and health, education, poverty reduction, and environmental protection, while also balancing the demand for water from different sectors in order to ensure food and energy security.
- A better understanding of the real "value" of water, which takes into account social and environmental costs, as well as the direct financial costs of extraction and delivery;
- Investments in strengthening water and sanitation institutions and in co-ordination to improve the efficiency of water distribution;
- Overhauling inadequate and/or weakly enforced legislation so that it can protect scarce water resources better;
- The systematic involvement of diverse stakeholders, including local communities, in decision-making and in the mechanisms necessary to increase the accountability and transparency of public water and sanitation services;
- Support for research, innovation, and data collection, including through stronger regional mechanisms for sharing data and knowledge; and
- Paying greater attention to shared water resource management across national boundaries.
Recognizing that conventional water supply cannot adequately meet growing water demand in the region, the Report calls for expanding the use of non-conventional water resources. These include rainwater harvesting, greywater re-use, and, in some cases, more desalination. UNDP has worked with government partners in Yemen, Lebanon, Tunisia, Jordan, and the Occupied Palestinian Territories in this region to pilot replicable and scalable non-conventional water supply approaches.
A number of the other recommendations of the Report could be advanced through building national capacities for integrated approaches to water management. UNDP has already worked with sixteen countries in the region to address critical water and water governance challenges. Some examples:
- In Tunisia we helped launch a project to improve local governance of drinking water in rural areas. It is projected to improve access for more than 11,000 people by upgrading water infrastructure and developing the capacity of user associations to manage water resources more efficiently.
- In Yemen, UNDP helped broaden public awareness around the challenge of water scarcity, and helped advocate for inclusive water management discussions by supporting local and national media campaigns.
- In Morocco, UNDP contributed to more effective planning for the sustainable use of water resources, including the vast southern oases areas. For example, in the "Sustainable Oasis Programme", UNDP supports local authorities and communities to promote resilient development through the preservation of oasis ecosystems and development of eco-tourism to generate income and strengthen livelihoods.
- In Jordan, UNDP supported the efforts of the Ministry of Water and Irrigation to reduce the agricultural water take in the highlands, engaging with the Highland Water Forum. We have supported the Government to strengthen its commitments to the global environmental conventions, including in the area of adaptation to climate change in the water and agricultural sectors.
Good practices in the area of water management and water use need to be shared. This report provides evidence of practices which do work well.
As the international community accelerates action on achieving the MDGs and on the design of the post-2015 agenda, access to safe drinking water and improved sanitation must continue to be top priorities. In the global My World survey on the post-2015 agenda, access to clean water and sanitation ranked fifth amongst the sixteen global priorities for the future agenda.
At the UN-led post-2015 consultations on water, there was support for expanding the focus of the new agenda to achieve access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) for all, while simultaneously addressing management of water resources, wastewater, and water pollution.
This Report offers important insights on water governance and will inform future discussions not only in this region, but also globally.
It is now my pleasure to formally launch the Report and to wish you all a constructive meeting.

[2] Resolution 65/154
Water Governance in the Arab Region: Managing scarcity and securing the future
The report provides the Arab countries and the international community, donors, and other stakeholders with an extensive understanding of the water situation in the region. In laying out the building blocks of good water governance needed to manage increasing water scarcity, it seeks to strengthen dialogue, raise awareness, and advance progress towards water-related development goals across the region.

A documentary on water governance in Arab States: Stories of community-based solutions to water scarcity
Every Drop Matters (2013) addresses the issue of water scarcity exacerbated by climate change in Arab states. This documentary features a number of water governance pilots that the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)'s Regional Bureau for Arab States (RBAS) has been supporting in the Arab region. It presents the experiences of communities from 5 countries (Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, and Tunisia), who talk about the impact of water scarcity on their daily lives and how community-based solutions have changed their lives. The documentary also emphasizes the need to link to policy-making initiatives at the national level with efforts at the regional and global levels.
This documentary was produced by the Regional Bureau for Arab States at UNDP, with support from the Coca-Cola Foundation.

You Have To See These Amazing Rocket Launches [Video]
At this early point in the retail availability of 4K resolution TVs and monitors, most of us don't have them yet. But, that being said, I highly recommend that you find the biggest monitor that you can find, if you have a smart TV with YouTube, even better, and watch this video full screen at the best resolution that you can manage. 4K or not, it's still totally mind blowing and totally cool.

Hello, all. As I think I've mentioned before, my tactic toward planning my wedding in a fun and totally relaxed way is to focus on each item one by one. Because I'm still on the hunt for the perfect dress, I will admit that I am somewhat breaking my own rules by starting to look at rings—but, oh well. Finding an eco-friendly wedding ring seems to be among the top things you can do to make your wedding more sustainable, so I have begun looking into the options. Diamond mining has caused a number of negative social issues and violence. Though it seems that the international diamond-mining industry has improved these social situations, a number of environmental problems still surround the practice. Gold mining is heavily polluting, as well.
Fortunately, diamonds "are forever" and gold doesn't lose its shine with time, so it's incredibly easy to find recycled versions. We do not need to support these industries' production of more and more pollution and social problems when plenty of gold and diamonds are already in circulation on the global market. Additionally, a number of companies offer fair trade diamonds or those created in labs, so many less harmful options are available. (See resource listings below.)
I am lucky to have one element already in the bag in terms of eco-friendliness: My fiance's mother had an absolutely beautiful diamond that has been in her family for four generations. Had I not had the good fortune of having a wonderful gift like this passed on to me, I certainly would have considered other jewels that are less harmfully produced but still gorgeous and long-lasting. However, it is absolutely not necessary to compromise if you want a traditional ring—simply being aware and doing a little research will allow you to find a traditional, classic ring in any style that is easier on the environment.
I am planning to have my diamond set in a band of recycled gold. I am hoping to find a local artisan to do this work...I may consider buying gold jewelry from a pawn or thrift store, then having the artist melt it down and rework it. This combines my interest in reusing and in supporting local artisans. I also highly value choosing items for my wedding that are unique and not the run-of-the-mill items found at the local mall. However, as I mentioned, you can find an eco-friendly version of nearly every type of ring, from the most traditional to the most unique.
If you are committed to having a diamond, consider an eco-friendly one. No matter what type of ring you want, you can find a sustainable choice. Here are some great resources to get you started:
