But I'll try.
Last Thursday until today was the annual Hottie Hoop Camp, a hoop retreat in Surfside Beach, Texas. That makes it sound so simple. But it's more than that. Yes, there are hoop classes, great ones, but also burlesque, yoga, altered couture, beading, photography, performance training, fire training, smoothie making, and even more than that. There are real connections being made. There aren't cliques. There is so much laughter that I feel like I did an ab workout for 4 days straight. There's a vintage Spirograph that blows your mind. It's body positive to the CORE! It's about loving yourself so much that that love spills out and you can't contain it, you gotta give it to everyone. It's a spontaneous twerk/Kanye West rap session. It's so far from false "blowing smoke up your ass" nonsense. It's so much TRUTH. It's learning things from people, more than you realized you could, and more than you knew you needed and craved it. This was my third year at HHC, my second year teaching at it, and easily the best for me.
I've never been so sad to not have that specific energy around. Luckily I have my amazing husband, my ridiculous pets, my ever supportive family, friends, my local hoop sisters, and last but not least, my fantastic students (who double as my hoop sisters!) who inspire me more than I could ever inspire them. I can't wait to see your beautiful faces Tuesday evening at class!!

At the University of Cambridge, we welcome applications from UK students who are or have previously been in care, and for the care leavers currently studying here we are able to offer a wide range of support and guidance.
The University of Cambridge was awarded the Buttle UK Quality Mark in 2010, in recognition of our commitment to supporting prospective applicants who are or have spent time in care, and our care-leaver students during their time at the University.
Young people who are in care and are interested in applying to university are welcome to participate in a number of events and activities we organise for students aged 11-18.
"Realise" events for care leavers and children in care
The Realise project's aim is to encourage more young people in care to consider higher education. We run a large number of events ranging from science days to theatre days to give a taste of life as a student at Cambridge.
What students say about Realise
"I wanted to know whether I would fit in at university, and especially at Cambridge, so I decided to check it out."
"I didn't used to like universities, but my social worker told me about this Realise programme, and I enjoyed it a lot."
"Talking to people who are here at the uni and hearing that I wouldn't have to struggle with costs were the most important things for me. I'm thinking again about applying to uni now."
"I want to have as many of my looked-after children to access as many of the University of Cambridge Realise Events as possible. I want them to know that they can access Higher Education and can have a university place if they want. Realise is about opening their eyes, raising their options and making it an expectation that university can be something for them." - Elle Zwandahl, Education Practitioner, Suffolk County Council

Hot Buttons. We've all got 'em—and every single one of us gets our undergarments in a twist about one thing or another. Maybe you're anti-Romney, anti-"hope," anti-taxes, anti-second amendment or even just anti-workin' for a living. Wait—that's good. Everybody break and put their feet up…excellent!
Point is, people have been voicing complaints, compliments and out-loud observations about society since the term was first coined. Sticking their views right on their lapels via buttons. This habit of button-wearing for a cause actually goes back centuries; even America's iconic, powder-wigged original leader himself had these campaign tchotchkes to pass out. Yes, way back in 1789, little brass "G.W.—Long live the President" buttons were sewn right onto the jackets of George Washington's supporters. In 1860, President Lincoln similarly offered up campaign buttons, as did McKinley in 1896, etc., etc.
So, what's your 2012 issue or passion you'd love to stick out there? Wanna give a shout out for recycling? Trekkie conventions? Your favorite candidate? Whatever it is, we've got a button for you (or if not, you can design your own!). That's the beauty of CafePress—it's "any button for one, or one button for all. You pick." Can't imagine why that slogan hasn't taken off.
Top button collectors say it's a timeless form of expression. "By removing the barrier for individuals to produce unique items in limited quantities, CafePress provides today's users with the ability to create tomorrow's collectibles," says Chris DiGiovanna of Trader Chris Consignments in Pittsboro, North Carolina. "Who knows what sort of things you'll see from CafePress selling on eBay in 5, 10, or 20 years?"
To sew it up, political campaign buttons are a great way to get your point across. CafePress buttons are subtle, yet also provide a message with a lot of sticktoitiveness. The perfect 2012 political companion!! And you can get 'em now at CafePress.

Trump Ranks No. 2 GOP Candidate in Nationwide PollWednesday, July 1st, 2015
Donald Trump now is in the number two spot, shared with Ben Carson, in Iowa and Michigan after a survey that already placed him in the second spot in New Hampshire, according to a CNN poll.
The social mood in the United States, as well as most of the world, demands a change, not just from President Barack Obama but from the "establishment" politicians who are viewed by rank and file voters, rightly or wrongly, lackeys for corporate boardrooms and Wall Street.
There are too many people who want "anyone but Trump" for him to be president, but he just keeps on trucking.
The primary elections won't be held until early next year, but Trump is enjoying solid support from a growing minority. Working against him is the strong dislike of the maverick billionaire by almost half of those polled.
A Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday gives Trump 10% support in Iowa, eight points behind Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and tied with Dr. Ben Carson, another candidate with no political experience. They have left behind better-known names and experienced politicians, some of them like Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee who are perfect for the conservative state of Iowa. Right behind Carson and Trump are Senators Rand Paul and Ted Cruz, followed by Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio.
Before Trump announced his candidacy, he won only 4% support, according to a poll carried out for Des Moines Register/Bloomberg.
In Michigan, Trump is tied with Carson and also with Bush, with Walker in first place.
Dean Debnam of Public Policy Polling, said in a statement:
Donald Trump's in the top tier of the Republican field for a second consecutive week in our polling, Time will tell how long the Trump Bump lasts, but it's at least two weeks at this point.
There are at least 16 Republicans running for the nomination for president, and that makes Trump all the more distinguishable from the others.
The JewishPress.com two weeks ago drew a parallel here between Trump and former Alabama Gov. George Wallace. Like Wallace, Trump does not care what anyone thinks about him or his opinions. He says what he thinks, and you can take it or leave it. Like Wallace, Trump is a magnet for people who resent ObamaCare, resent a dismal American foreign policy, especially in the Middle East, and are fed up with politicians whose popularity is based on how many promises can be made, fulfilled or not.
For them, this is what they want to hear about the biggest domestic issue today:
It's people—our fine American people, living their own lives, buying their own homes, educating their children, running their own farms, working the way they like to work, and not having the bureaucrats and intellectual morons trying to manage everything for them. It's a matter of trusting the people to make their own decisions.
It sounds like Trump, but it was out of the mouth of Wallace in the 1968 campaign, when his third-party candidacy attracted 10 million voters and 45 electoral votes.
If Trump loses his bid for the GOP nomination, as expected, and if he decides to run as a third-party candidate, he could cause wreak havoc for both the Republican and Democratic parties.
The pollsters and politicians sneered and mocked Wallace, but his third-party candidacy threatened to throw the election to the House of Representatives, which is what happens if no candidate wins a majority of electoral votes.
For the time being, the media are having a field day covering Trump, as seen in this CNN video here.Tzvi Ben-Gedalyahu

Gov. Tom Corbett's first budget has put the funding of education from kindergarten to graduate school in the crosshairs of a profound, bitter debate.
The Great Recession has shaken everything in this country, which is both unsettling and, oddly, an opportunity. The upheaval and the altered fiscal reality begs for a wide-scale re-evaluation of many services and institutions.
As for educating children, who doesn't want that?
Yes, but at what cost?
"It costs $145,000 per student from K-12 to teach each child to read, write and do math. It costs $223,000 per classroom. That's a lot of money," House Republican Majority spokesman Steve Miskin said.
Miskin said that despite claims that Pennsylvania students improved test scores after eight years of investment in education by former Gov. Ed Rendell, the increases in proficiency "were not significantly different."
So the argument is twofold: Not only can Pennsylvania not afford to pay at these levels, it's not getting its money's worth.
You can't really go wrong by attacking a costly institution. Everyone likes the idea of education, but this debate is about whether there's an argument to be made that the system isn't inept or, worse, perhaps corrupt.
For basic education, property owners have reached their limit.
For higher education, what does it mean that two-income, middle-class families look at tuition costs and seriously wonder not only how to pay, but whether the investment is worth it? This in a society that requires more education and greater skills.
That's why the Corbett administration has aggressively challenged basic education funding and wants to cut funds for higher education by 50 percent. It's easier to say you can't afford something when you think it's not worth paying for, especially since so many dollars are going to things other than teaching kids.
On the closing day of budget hearings by the House Appropriations Committee last week, Budget Secretary Charles Zogby hit back at lawmakers, mostly Democrats, who charged that the deep funding cuts were nothing more than a tax transfer to the school districts, where property taxes would have to be raised.
"The bulk of the problems we face, [Corbett] had nothing to do with. He was left holding the bag," Zogby said.
On the issue of higher education funding, Zogby suggested that sketchy graduation rates did not justify the steady tuition increases despite the flood of money sent to these schools by the state.
"They're all good institutions. They're valuable assets. ... It is a question of, well, what value we are deriving," Zogby said.
Zogby has done a good job sticking to the script. However, that's the biggest problem here.
In his introductory period as governor, Corbett has passed off the messaging just as he has passed off the place where the ultimate debate over public education must take place.
He wants the General Assembly to take up this debate. He wants local school districts to cope with the radical changes. And while the shock therapy has been administered, Corbett has been out touring manufacturing plants or holding news conferences about Rendell's old bus. Instead of taking up the cause of education reform — which is what this funding proposal amounts to — Corbett has added to the growing public perception that Corbett is mostly against things. Or that he's not very good at articulating what he's for.
For anyone who views President Barack Obama as flawed for handing off big initiatives (health care, Afghanistan, Libya) to others to generate the will and passion to carry out, Corbett seems to be following the same pattern. In states where debates about budgets, union contracts and pension funds are being met head on, Corbett refuses to carry the ball, instead handing it off like a hot potato.
In the words of even some Republican lawmakers who agree it's time to remake some sacred institutions, it would be nice if the man who threw down the gauntlet on the cost of government and the value of education would actually get out there and explain what it is he stands for.
Go to a school. Talk to teachers. Talk to students, instead of walking past a rally — the way Corbett did last week at the state Capitol.
Otherwise, the leadership required to move people past ideology and onto the hard truths about what's needed for the future is missing.

Context Emerging epidemiological evidence suggests that higher coffee consumption
may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Objective To examine the association between habitual coffee consumption and risk
of type 2 diabetes and related outcomes.
Data Sources and Study Selection We searched MEDLINE through January 2005 and examined the reference
lists of the retrieved articles. Because this review focuses on studies of
habitual coffee consumption and risk of type 2 diabetes, we excluded studies
of type 1 diabetes, animal studies, and studies of short-term exposure to
coffee or caffeine, leaving 15 epidemiological studies (cohort or cross-sectional).
Data Extraction Information on study design, participant characteristics, measurement
of coffee consumption and outcomes, adjustment for potential confounders,
and estimates of associations was abstracted independently by 2 investigators.
Data Synthesis We identified 9 cohort studies of coffee consumption and risk of type
2 diabetes, including 193 473 participants and 8394 incident cases of
type 2 diabetes, and calculated summary relative risks (RRs) using a random-effects
model. The RR of type 2 diabetes was 0.65 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54-0.78)
for the highest (≥6 or ≥7 cups per day) and 0.72 (95% CI, 0.62-0.83)
for the second highest (4-6 cups per day) category of coffee consumption compared
with the lowest consumption category (0 or ≤2 cups per day). These associations
did not differ substantially by sex, obesity, or region (United States and
Europe). In the cross-sectional studies conducted in northern Europe, southern
Europe, and Japan, higher coffee consumption was consistently associated with
a lower prevalence of newly detected hyperglycemia, particularly postprandial
Conclusions This systematic review supports the hypothesis that habitual coffee
consumption is associated with a substantially lower risk of type 2 diabetes.
Longer-term intervention studies of coffee consumption and glucose metabolism
are warranted to examine the mechanisms underlying the relationship between
coffee consumption and type 2 diabetes.
Relative risks were incidence density ratios from proportional hazards
models, except for the study by van Dam et al,30 which
used odds ratios obtained by logistic regression analysis to estimate relative
risks. CI indicates confidence interval. The size of the data markers (squares)
corresponds to the weight of the study in the meta-analysis.

What Celebrity Mags Might Look Like If They Scrutinized Male BodiesCarolyn Castiglia
The genius gals over at The Frisky have created an amazing mock-up of what your typical celeb gossip rag might look like if the cover featured images scrutinizing men's bodies instead of women's. On this fake Star cover are Quentin Tarantino, Gerard Depardieu, Rob Kardashian and Gerard Butler being mocked for "letting themselves go." This simple and blatant role-reversal speaks volumes about the ways women are so consistently objectified on the covers of these Hollywood-centric tabloids. I particularly love the way Channing Tatum is called out for having fake abs. Hahaha…
The Frisky wonders what life would be like if instead of "telling us who has the best and worst "beach bodies," we might see covers on the most egregious beer bellies in Hollywood." They go on to say, "Think about how weird it is that these magazines are targeted at women, and women are more or less the sole objects of these magazine's bodily criticism and speculation." Female-on-female scrutiny permeates the world of mommy culture, and even the most casual feminist recognizes that women are taught culturally to hate on and be jealous of one another from a very young age. We are meant to see each other as competition in the race to find a male prize. So what would happen if we started exposing men not only as objects, but objects unworthy of prize status? How would that change things?
Of course exposing anyone and everyone's weakness is not the way to solve a problem, but it sure does make an excellent point, no?

Main Theme: "Healing Justice"
The second issue of NSN invites critical reflections on healing justice as it relates to social (in)justices on any scale. For this issue, we seek to collectively create an interdisciplinary volume on healing. Since we situate the journal in a particular history of resistance (see our mandate statement), we are interested in critical reflections about healing justice that are also situated in the experiences of multiple oppressions. Although we are not beginning with a definition, we are beginning with the premise that healing justice is political and centralizes the simultaneity of race, class, gender, sexuality, (dis)ability, etc. We welcome submissions of all genres from scholars and activists alike.

I recently ordered this in an XS and it was extremely tight, it was really hard to take on and off. I'm 5ft/34C and I'm going to probably try a small next.
I have it in a M, I'm 5'6" 140lbs and it fits but it's a bit snug. I'd probably get a L if I got another one.

I found this blouse in the Antwerp store on my birthday: match made in heaven! I have the red version and I've been wearing it a lot with nude or black tank tops underneath (it is very sheer). I'm tall (176 centimeters, so 5"9 I believe) and average sized (I normally wear a EU 36 or 38, UK 8-10, US 4-6, medium), with a small bust and the XS fit me best width-wise but was too short, so I settled with a wider fitting S (which hits an inch or so below my belly button so it sits just right with the waistbands of my skirts, the tank tops do show when I lift my arms, but it still looks ok).
The funny thing about this blouse is (at least my version) that it doesn't seem to have a clear back or front so I just throw it on and it works either way XD am now considering ordering the 'bone' colour as well (please make this in a vibrant green as well AA)!

Awesome top however it is impossible to clean I have the Lilac, Tahiti and Lagoon and they are all basically ruined after wearing them once. Does anyone have any washing advice, I have used Woolite and shout, and both failed to get out stains... I was thinking I could dye them a darker color, but after searching online it seems it is very difficult to dye Polyester Chiffon fabric.. Anyone have advice or know a good dying place in nyc? Thanks!

I got this top on Lagoon (medium) and LOVE it! If it was cheaper I'd get more colors. I normally wear a L in AA ladies and a S in unisex, but a M in this top fits great!

I bought this top in lagoon and I love it sooo much. It's breezy and light, and can even be worn during the summer. Best of all, it's perfect for wearing with high-waisted skirts and paints.

I purchased the lagoon in a small and have fallen in love! I have a short torso, I am able to wear most crop tops as normal tees, and I wear this shirt with a normal pant. The color is so gorgeous, the puff makes the shirt look even more romantic, and it's just a great overall shirt no matter what type of clothing you're into.

This top is simple gorgeous and the puff sleeves makes this top more beautiful. Its a little short at the bottom so if you wanted to go up a size to have more length go for it but other wise your regular size should be fine

I have this in Bone (and Floral, woohoo!). It's very pretty, feminine, and sexy. I prefer to wear it tucked in because it's at an awkward-looking length...but perfect tucking-in length (since there is no length to add bulk).

Oakland keeps cash on overpaid parking tickets
State law requires refunds
An audit shows Oakland is keeping cash from overpaid parking tickets despite a state law requiring refunds.
The San Francisco Chronicle says motorists mistakenly paid parking tickets twice, adding to a $316,000 windfall last year alone.
The city auditor says Oakland's parking enforcement officers issued $22.7 million in tickets last year.
The $316,000 in overpayments came from inattentive motorists who paid twice.
The annual windfall was discovered as part of a larger audit of the city's parking ticket management.
The auditor says Oakland bureaucrats have no knowledge of the requirement to reimburse overpayments.

IN 1954 Woodward et al1 reported that irrigation of isolated vagus-innervated antrum pouches in dogs with liver solutions produced a vigorous secretion of gastric juice from a Heidenhain pouch when the perfusate was neutral or faintly alkaline in reaction but little or no secretion where the perfusate was acidified. In later experiments with the same types of preparation, Woodward and his associates2 found that the secretory response to distention of the isolated antrum was also regularly blocked when the antrum was perfused with N 10 HCl solutions. N 50 HCl with a pH of 1.7 was found to be ineffectual. Nitric and sulfuric acids were equally as effective as HCl indicating that the important factor was the hydrogen concentration. These early observations have been repeatedly confirmed and the later work has been very largely directed to the question: does acidification of the antrum cause the release of a

Death to the Pixies
~ Release group by Pixies
Death to the Pixies was the first Pixies best-of compilation, released by 4AD in the UK on October 6, 1997 and 4AD/Elektra the following day in the United States to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the band's debut. It covered the years 1987 to 1991. It is now out of print, having been replaced by the 2004 compilation Wave of Mutilation: Best of Pixies. A limited edition of the compilation also included a second CD with a live performance taken from Vredenburg, Utrecht, Netherlands on September 25, 1990.
There was also another version of the limited edition, produced in extremely small quantities, that includes two rare "Black Francis Demos" ("I'm Amazed" and "Broken Face"). This is known as the "Golden Ticket" version, and has GT appended to its catalog number. These demos, recorded in the apartment of producer Gary Smith the day before the band convened to record their full demo at Smith's Fort Apache Studios, feature only Francis singing and playing acoustic guitar (and giving notations to Smith about where the other band members' parts are). The complete "Black Francis Demos" were released as the first disc of 2004's Frank Black Francis 2-CD compilation.
The vinyl release contained all the tracks on the "Golden Ticket" version, spread out over four 10" records. Featuring a different cover, the vinyl version was a limited edition of 9,000 copies printed.

Rare stone highway markers can still be found in the area
Few and far between, only a handful of the old stone highway markers, which once guided travelers across Virginia roads, remain. Frederick County has two left, along Northwestern Pike, which was upgraded in the 1840s by engineering legend Claudius Crozet. Maury Sutphin of the Virginia Department of Transportation examines one showing it is 33 miles to Romney, W.Va.
The concrete post at right is an example of the right-of-way markers installed when the state took over construction and maintenance of local primary and secondary roads in the 1930s. Similar concrete posts, triangular in shape, were used to show the edges of construction projects. Many of these markers still exist in the local area.
Faint but legible, this stone road marker, which may date to the 1840s, told travelers on Northwestern Pike how far they were from Romney, W.Va. Cut into the limestone rock are the letters "To R," on one line and "36M" below.
GORE — Hard, white and silent, they were still the geo-positioning systems of their day.
Road markers have been part of Virginia's highway system since the 18th century, according to Ann B. Miller,…

About MeWell, I started photography seriously around 1998. I have done some magazine work shooting backstage at concert events.

Some of the best in the business. My goal is to create beautiful, artistic images and to move more towards the fashion side of photography. I want to have work published in fashion magazines and advertisments around Japan. I want to be able to work with famous people around the world. My reason for being a part of Model Mayhem, is so that I can find models nearby who would like to collaborate with me and my make up artist and create fantastic images.

"Slipping" shows promise, but at present it seems more TV movie than play.
An author's note in the program states that "Slipping," Daniel Talbott's new play at the Rattlestick, "is hopefully a play about loss, hope and possibility and the things that crack us open and force us to reach out and become more of who we truly are." That unwieldy statement indicates a playwright with ideas and sensibilities but an as-yet-undeveloped sense of craft, and Talbott's hopes for the play, alas, are not fully realized.
Central character Eli (Seth Numrich), transplanted from San Francisco to Iowa, is 17 years old and has a Secret. (The play begins and ends in a hospital bed, and the boy occasionally wears a wrist band.) He also has two boyfriends — moody Chris (Adam Driver) of San Francisco, seen in numerous flashbacks, and likable Iowa shortstop Jake (Macleod Andrews) — and a mother who grades English papers and sleeps with numerous men.
The action, such as it is, shows Eli's adjustment to his new home and a "hopefully" more normal relationship with Jake (whom he meets as they are both throwing pots in ceramics class). Talbott has given us a highly likable hero in Eli, although the dark patches in his character seem to jump out of nowhere. One gets the impression of an autobiographical portrait written by an author who doesn't quite understand his dark side.
More problematic is the fragmentary dramaturgy. "Slipping" is written in some 30 separate scenes, some as brief as two words. This works well on film but is highly distracting onstage; in some cases, it takes longer to swivel the furniture and change costumes than to play the actual scene. Director Kirsten Kelly manages to keep the action moving through all those quick changes of locale, but she doesn't seem to have helped Talbott focus his play.
Numrich makes a very good impression as Eli, and he is matched by Andrews in the smaller role of the all-American boy, no matter that neither looks anywhere near 17. Driver, however, appears to be almost twice the proscribed age (he's an ex-Marine, according to his bio), which adds a distracting element to his scenes with Numrich. (Chris is also described as "beautiful," which only goes to illustrate that old cliche that beauty is in the eye of the casting director.) Meg Gibson, as a mother who has not quite grown up, offers strong support.
"Slipping," which was workshopped at the Royal Court Theater and the Rattlestick (where Talbott is a literary manager), is presented by Piece by Piece Prods. and Rising Phoenix Rep (where Talbott is artistic director). An actor and director as well, Talbott wears many hats; "Slipping" shows promise, but at present it seems more TV movie than play.
The action features a little bit of nudity (real) and a little bit of blood (fake).

The 4-year-old girl was eager to meet the famed Mr. T—until she caught a glimpse of him. After one long look at the Mandinka haircut, the combat boots and the great black mass of bejeweled muscle in between, she dug her heels into the dirt and struggled for safety. "He's gonna hurt me, I know he is," she cried.
She was wrong. The imposing star of Rocky III and The A Team and the bad-dest badass in show business had come to play, not to pummel. Along with five busloads of other celebrities—including Erik Estrada, Sally Struthers and Henry Winkler—Mr. T had journeyed to MacLaren Hall, a Los Angeles County emergency shelter for abused children, for a day of food, fun and softball. And, after coaxing a grin from the by-now-game gamine, T revealed the heart of pure mush. "I'm glad to bring smiles to these kids' faces," he said. "I can't think of a better way to spend the day—any day."
This annual outing is just one of many activities that have drawn famous names to MacLaren Hall, home to 140 children up to the age of 18. With leaders like Stacey Winkler, wife of the Fonz, the United Friends of the Children has brightened the institutional face of the hall for three years. In addition to Christmas parties and "good grooming days" with celebrity participation, the group has given the hall an exercise track, a weight room and a video arcade. "They have enhanced our program more than you can imagine," says MacLaren's project coordinator, Valerie Gilbride. "Before, we had a hard time getting everything from magazines to baseball equipment."
While the celebrities have changed MacLaren, Henry Winkler notes, the hall has changed them too. "They leave a little different from the way they arrive," he said at the end of the long day. "And they want to come back again."
Winkler's All-Stars May Be Babes at Bat, but for Abused Kids They're Old Pros Who Care

- Labels DFTD
- Catalog DFTDS004D
Impressive rising star Pitto joins the ranks of the continuously exciting DFTD producers in what appears to be an extremely promising summer for the Defected Records sister imprint.
The Dutch producer initially turned heads with breakthrough releases such as 'Sexvibe' and 'Feelin' which contributed to him earning two dance music prizes at De Grote Prijs awards in the Netherlands. He has been on fire ever since and released a debut album 'Objects In A Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear' where he worked with various talented musicians and vocalists to create a bona fide portrayal of his experimental and creative outlook on the house music genre.
His brand new single 'You' greatly reaffirms Pitto's calibre and unique approach to his productions boasting tremendous character and a manner which can already so easily be associated to the Dutch producers creations. Driven by a booming kick drum also joined by lively chords and bursts of his own charismatic vocal samples, 'You' is a track befitting to both beach bars and super clubs alike.

Solvay, NY -- Virginia LaPoint was always a suspect in the attempted murder of her husband last month.
But Onondaga County prosecutors wanted more evidence before accusing her of plotting with another man to kill Michael LaPoint, said First Chief Assistant District Attorney Rick Trunfio.
John Conway, 40, was arrested after the May 4 attack that left the father of three with stab wounds to the neck, head, chest and abdomen and a gunshot wound to shoulder. Authorities at the time said the two men had an ongoing dispute.
But Solvay police and county prosecutors kept investigating. Chief Assistant District Attorney Joseph Coolican and Assistant District Attorney Janet Fall were tasked with the DA's office probe, Trunfio said.
Armed with information from interviews and subpoenaed records, authorities brought Virginia LaPoint in for an interview.
She made admissions of her involvement with the attempted murder, according to court records.
Solvay police have said that Virginia LaPoint and Conway had some type of relationship, but would not say how they knew each other.
There was a witness to the attack, according to court paperwork, but police have not said what role Virginia LaPoint played in the stabbing and shooting.
Trunfio declined to comment on the evidence, noting the case had to go before a grand jury.
