Greetings everyone!
Thought I'd say hi to the community from Cape Town, South Africa
Only a couple of months before I become a owner. Been saving a while now and nearly there.
By the way, great information you guys have here. Really going to help me out loads when I eventually find a WRX worth buying.
*One kwik question: Would it be viable buying a STI over the normal WRX pertaining to reliability? The availability in South Africa is pretty limited (the limit being my wallet). Looking round for a 04.
Best wishes guys/gals

Is Kourtney Kardashian Stepping Out on Scott Disick with Model Leandro Magno?
Leandro 'said that Scott doesn't appreciate her enough, and he would do anything to make sure Kourtney is happy!'
Has Kourtney Kardashian, 31, had enough of her boyfriend Scott Disick , 27, and his temper-fueled rages?According to InTouch magazine, Kourtney may have her eye on a new guy she met at MIA nightclub in Miami, sexy male model Federico Leandro Magno!
Scott wasn't with Kourtney at the club when Leandro approached Kourtney. "He and Kourtney have great chemistry," a friend of Leandro's says.
And even though he knew that Kourtney had a boyfriend (Leandro has mutual friends with Kourtney and Scott), it didn't stop him from flirting up a storm with her. He thinks Kourtney is "absolutely stunning" says the friend. He's already planning on "treating Kourtney better than Scott does."
"Leandro thinks she's such a sweet girl and she said her smile is mesmerizing," adds the friend. "He said that Scott doesn't appreciate her enough, and he would do anything to make sure she is happy!
More evidence that something could be going on: Leandro has even been spotted in New York City on Oct. 22 near the Smyth Hotel where Kourtney is currently staying with Scott and her sister Kim Kardashian, 30, while they film their new reality show Kourtney and Kim Take New York.
If Kourtney is eyeing other men, this would come as great news to the Kardashian family as mom Kris Jenner, 54, and sister Khloe Kardashian, 26, have been secretly trying to set Kournety to rid of Scott, according to reports. "For a while now, Kourtney's mom Kris has been secretly encouraging men to ask Kourtney on dates," says a source. Khloe on the other hand has been asking her husband Lamar Odom, 30, to set Kourt up with one of his teammates from the LA Lakers.

He's probably scared out of his mind. If he was a stray he could have been abused or abandoned. Just give him time. My kitten makes me tired just looking at her when she's frisky. Every animal has a different personality, so try to bond with your bud without what you consider play. Buy different toys, cat scratchers and a window perch to add to his interests and see how it goes. He could also be sick... kittens need THREE sets of shots from the vet, so make an appointment if you haven't taken him in yet... ^_^

Dec 9, 2012 - By Randy Tucker, Staff WriterFriday's loss drops the Cougars to 0-5 on the season with tough challenge coming this weekend at Tongue River and Big Horn.
It was another long night for the winless Wind River Cougars, who fell hard to visiting Rocky Mountain 71-35 in their home opener Saturday afternoon in Pavillion.
The loss drops the Cougars to 0-5 on the season with a very tough challenge coming this weekend at Tongue River and Big Horn high schools in Sheridan County.
The game opened at a glacial pace, with neither team finding the range for more than three minutes.
Wind River freshman Caleb C'Bearing broke the ice, hitting a trey with 5:47 left in the opening period to give the Cougars an early 3-0 advantage. The lead disappeared on the ensuing possession, with Rocky's Bryce Ward hitting a baseline trey eight seconds later to knot the game at three.R00;Ryan Weliever hit a follow shot to tie the game once more at 5-5, and Zac Lindstadt's 3-pointer gave Wind River their final lead of the game at 8-7 with 3:24 left in the first.
The Cougars disintegrated offensively after the brief lead. In the opening minutes they ran a patterned offense and got good looks at the basket, the Wind River offense deteriorated into a series of freelance one-on-one plays that led to easy Rocky Mountain layups when the Cougars failed to get back on defense.
The Grizzlies ran a de-facto layup drill for their final 10 points of the half, quickly tossing outlet passes to Ward and Cannon Simmons for uncontested drives to the basket.
The Cougars opened the third with a bit more orchestrated offense and cut into the lead, but eventually Rocky blew the game open with another series of easy transition baskets.
The Grizzlies built a 30-point lead early in the final period and put the mercy rule into effect with a 66-26 advantage with 1:34 left in the game.
Reserves on both sides finished the final three minutes of play, with Wind River freshman Bryce Hankins making the best of his minutes with a field goal and a 3-pointer.
Wind River -- Bryce Hankins 1 (1) 0-0 5, Caleb C'Bearing 1 (1) 0-0 5, Brett Roanhorse (1) 0-2 3, Zach Lindstadt (1) 0-0 3, Ryan Weliever 3 2-8 8, Delshai Roanhorse 1 0-0 2, Cory Cress 1 0-0 2, Dakota Snyder 1-2 1, Brodie Miller 1 2-4 4, Luke Tidzump 2-2 2. Totals 8 (4) 7-20 35

Fix it the right way.

Colin Megaro promised, agreed and documented that he would pay for services completed and the check never came. Claims a check was sent and deposited however neither were proven to be true. Payment has still not been received. He has also not paid other service providers as well, who contacted me with the same issue. He has lied aboout his past and financial status. He has 16 lawsuits in 3 different states and counting. DO NOT WORK WITH HIM ON ANY LEVEL. He is a completely dishonest person.

False Information
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, December 02, 2015POSTED: Wednesday, December 02, 2015
Good Day,
I am a former employee of Colin Megaro, LLC, I worked for his company for two years, and was just informed of this report. I have been asked to express my opinion and here it is.... Colin was a fantastic boss, there was never an issue with payment, legal issues or the such.
I worked for Mr. Megaro during the time of his breakup and can without a doubt say that his ex was one of the most horrible people I have ever met. He attacked Mr. Megaro in more ways than one and this is one of them. It's terrible to sully someone's reputation because that person is doing nothing with their life.

#2 REBUTTAL Owner of company
False Report
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, December 02, 2015POSTED: Wednesday, December 02, 2015
The above report is completely false. It was added in 2013 by an ex-boyfriend and his mouth piece. It was meant to be vindictive, hurtful and revengeful. Anyone who takes the time to Google/LinkedIn etc my name will see that I have a spotless reputation, do not own a modeling agency and will find many accolades from celebrity and private clients located all over the world.
Unfortunately in the age of technology people choose to put their personal business out into public eye. To each their own but it is certainly not how I would ever handle business.

Did someone say "shoes"?
Last night I had the pleasure of attending the Australian launch of Brazilian shoe brand, Via Uno. The party was held in the penthouse at "The Ivy" in Sydney so how could I refuse? …. haha
Brazil is one of the largest manufacturers of shoes in the world and with this comes quality and expertise for the most part so I knew I wouldn't be disappointed.
The brand was established in 1991 and now is represented globally throughout South America, The Middle East, Europe and now downunder right here in Australia.
I managed to get some quite good shots of the models wearing their heals and these are some of the best.
Now ladies.. isn't this "shoe heaven"? Which one would you pick. Don't be greedy…. Ok.. be greedy!! haha
Click here to see a short video of me in action with my camera at the launch party.
Thanks for the invite Via Uno. I had such a good night.

Today we set off and continued travelling on Highway 1 stopping at another little fishing village for a break. Walking along the beach I met 4 children who were so beautiful and friendly. i wrote my name in the sand and they did theirs. We had quite a good chat with each other and laughed alot.
Got into Nha Trang early arvo, another hotel near the beach. Don't like this town very much, it is very commercialised. The esplanard is covered in fairy lights and Chrissie decos, strung across the road. All the locals are out on their bikes, complete with kids and babies to see the coloured lights this evening. We went to the mud baths and hot springs this arvo. Magnificently relaxing. Really good mud, which they let out of a pipe into the tub. Lovely slippery light brown mud. Then we sunbaked and let it dry, washed it off under mineral hot showers, jumped into a tub of boiling hot mineral water, sat under a mineral waterfall which pounded on our backs, then a swim in the pool of warm water. All mineraled out!
This evening Hai took us to a local place where we bbq'd our own food on a ceramic container of hot carcoals on our table. Beef, chicken, fish, squid, and vegies. I feel totally stuffed now. Tomorrow we're off on a boat for the day to do snorkling, swimming, and eating again !

Philanthropy With A Woman's TouchToddi Gutner
After years of doing volunteer work, Eastman Kodak executive Cecelia Miller Horwitz decided she wanted to contribute something that would keep on giving, whether or not she could contribute her time. So she joined Rainmakers, a group of professional women that came together to raise money for and give guidance to the Women's Foundation of Genesse Valley, N.Y. The entry fee was $25,000, but Miller didn't hesitate to ante up. The foundation backs programs that assist women in developing job skills and help victims of domestic violence become economically self-sufficient, among other things. "When I reflect on how I've spent my money, few things have given me as much satisfaction as Rainmakers," says Horwitz.
While women have long been involved in charity work through volunteering their time, they're now increasingly able to give money as well. Indeed, women are donating as much of their annual income as men--about 2.1%, according to a 1999 study by the Independent Sector, a Washington (D.C.) research forum. That's true, in part, because more women are becoming financially independent as they climb the corporate ladder or succeed as entrepreneurs. About 41% of the 3.3 million Americans reporting incomes of $500,000 are women, according to the Internal Revenue Service. "There is more of a sense that this money is mine, I earned it, and I control it," says Kathleen McCarthy, director of the Center for the Study of Philanthropy at City University of New York. And with this earned wealth has come a budding awareness that women can shape society. There are now more than 90 women's foundations like Genesse Valley's, up from 5 about 20 years ago, according to the Women's Funding Network, the umbrella organization for these funds.
Along with this new generation of high-net-worth women are those who are set to inherit substantial fortunes over the next few decades. At least $41 trillion will be passing from one generation to the next by 2044, says a 1999 study by Boston College's Social Welfare Research Institute. And much of that wealth will fall into the hands of women, who outlive men by an average of seven years and usually end up in charge of the family financial affairs. "Women donors are seen as the new frontier, the new possibility," says Christine Grumm, executive director of the Women's Funding Network.
To tap the new fount of women donors, fundraisers have discovered that there are gender differences in the way women and men give (table). Consequently, "women should be approached differently and be given opportunities" to donate to causes in ways that make them most comfortable, says Andrea Kaminski, executive director of the Women's Philanthropy Institute. For example, women are more likely to donate if they can create a new program rather than contribute to an existing project. They also seek a close personal connection to the cause. Women donors do that by demanding continual updates on how their money is being spent and how it's helping people. Volunteering helps women feel connected--47% of women donors gave their time in 1996, vs. 39% of men. Men often contribute only with a check and are much more comfortable with multiyear pledges.
Coeducational institutions have begun to wake up to the gender differences between donors, too, and dozens of them, including Harvard University, have launched fund-raising campaigns aimed at alumnae. "They recognize that there's an untapped philanthropic resource that has been ignored," says Trish Jackson, vice-president at the Council for Advancement & Support of Education.
Career women have reshaped business and family life, and soon, they will make their mark on philanthropy, too.

Yay! We loved working with the gals from Erica O'Brien [pre-move back to the east coast] and Bride and Bloom Flowers [Amy is amazing and *so* sweet] on this one! Rachel and I got to team up, take the ideas given by Amy and Erica, and run with them to create something really special. This shoot is, for our team, almost nostalgic in feel [as it features our old stomping grounds, good old Santa Ana studio space!!]! A special shout out to Kristen on our team for the remarkable graphics [oval place cards? DYING] and to Lane Dittoe for his ever-romantic-feeling images… I love the soft, real look of film photography and Lane is a MASTER at it!
Rush over to the full feature for more pretty prettiness. I mean, seriously… leg warmers and an old upright bass!! You cannot not not not go wrong!

The group held a press conference in the lobby of Hollywood Casino. The actual awards presentation isn't until May, but some of the recipients were on hands for the event.

I hope everyone had a happy and safe New Year.
By now I think some of you may have heard the news. Most likely from my very excited mom. But, Santa was good to me this Christmas.Watch movie online The Transporter Refueled (2015)
I had my 15 day scans read and the results were pretty incredible.
This is the pathologist's findings of my latest PET scan:
"Impression: Dramatic interval positive response to treatment, with complete resolution of many sites of metastatic melanoma, and dramatic improvement of the dominant sites of disease. There is no evidence of progressive malignancy."
My results after only 15 days were some of the most dramatic my doctors had ever seen. However, I am taking this one step at a time. I am very quietly celebrating this news because if I have learned anything the past 15 months its that things can change at any moment in time. Don't get me wrong though, I am thrilled and I hope and pray that these results continue for me and others fortunate enough to be on this trial drug.
As always, thanks so much for your well wishes!

The 86th Academy Awards broke a number of records and wrapped up a compelling year in movies on a high note. You never know what awards shows will offer, and that's why I love them. I'll take the bad with the good and take biased industry elitism with a grain of salt in exchange for the trendcasting and highlighted moments that come with live awards shows.
This year's theme ending up being "breaking," which was a thrilling break from some outdated patterns-- and thanks to host Ellen DeGeneres, a massive improvement over last year. If television last year was all about Breaking Bad, maybe movies were about Breaking Good and we're on an upward trend.Breaking Social Media Records: Go Ellen!
Ellen was a fairly low key, starting the night with a monologue and then weaving short bits, and a few wardrobe changes, throughout the night. I liked her tone, because she allowed acceptance speeches to be the centerpiece of the show, and many of them were phenomenal. One of her big bits ended up stalling Twitter with a selfie gambit to break a retweeting record. She also brought in pizza for hungry celebs (and collected cash and Lupita's lip gloss in Pharrell's famous hat to pay the bill) and appeared in a Good Witch Glenda costume in short bits that lent themselves to gifs. Smart player, that Ellen, and she wants to play with us.
The selfie (JULIA! MERYL! J-LAW!) was on point with the role social media plays in industry promotion and audience engagement. Ellen's tweet ultimately broke the record previously held by President Obama. My retweet is in there; how about yours?
The people working on the Twitter servers just screamed at Ellen, "Noooooo!" -Momo #BlogHerTalks #Oscars

Breaking Barriers #1: Alfonso Cuarón, First Latino Director to Win an Academy Award for Best Direction
Gravity was one of the night's big winners, pulling in seven awards, and Alfonso Cuarón broke an important barrier when he nabbed the Best Director award. I loved his acceptance speech, especially when he addressed Sandra Bullock as his "collaborator."
What an amazing moment when 12 Years a Slave made history by winning the Best Picture award! What an amazing film! British director Steve McQueen's masterpiece also won two other Oscars in addition to the top prize, including Best Supporting Actress for Lupita Nyong'o and Best Adapted Screenplay for John Ridley based on the memoir of Solomon Northup.
Breaking into the EGOT Club: Bobby Lopez
It was a night for brilliant acceptance speeches, not the least of which was given by writers Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Bobby Lopez who won the Best Song award for Frozen's "Let It Go." The win gave Bobby Lopez the rare and coveted EGOT designation for winning an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony. Try to control your tears when Kristen speaks to her daughter in their energized acceptance speech.

What was perhaps the finest moment of the night came early, when the stunning Lupita Nyong'o was recognized for her work in 12 Years a Slave. She raised up the name of Patsey when saluting her spirit in her eloquent and memorable acceptance speech. Flawless, moving and memorable, it was a singular moment.

Cate Blanchett used most of her stage time to highlight the need for equity in opportunities for women, along with a thank-you to Woody Allen.
In general, the night was low on snark and high on celebration, affirmation and hope. What were your favorite moments?

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Two Hurricanes battled through new conditions and nagging injuries Friday afternoon at the Bedford Cup – State of Florida Championships at the Scott Speicher Tennis Center in Tallahassee, Fla.
Freshman Bernard Tefel, who is beginning the transition to college tennis, lost his Friday match to UNF's Mark Hamill, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, on an indoor court. After a strong showing in the first set, Tefel showed his youth against an experienced indoor player.
"Bernard played his first time ever indoors against a very experienced indoor player and lost a very close match," said assistant coach Mark Dickson. "He had his chances late in the second set to win but the momentum went the other way."
Sophomore Jack Murphy left the tennis court under different circumstances. After falling behind 5-0 to UCF's Reece Acree, Murphy retired from the match. According to Mark Dickson, Murphy had tried to fight through an injury.
"Jack's arm became very sore early in the match and we felt it was best for him to stop and get some physical therapy to be able to bounce back quickly for Saturday," Dickson said.
Three Canes – Tefel, Murphy and Henrique Tsukamoto - will compete again Saturday, participating in the singles consolation bracket. Murphy, who expects to be ready for Saturday, will play Jose Sangroniz of UCF at 9 a.m. Tefel will follow Murphy at 10 a.m. against Stetson's Chester Espie. Tsukamoto will round out the Canes' morning play, facing Jack Findel-Hawkins of UNF at 10:30 a.m.

Jordi Savall's Jerusalem Project
Many musicians and critics agree that few musicians can play the 15th-century stringed viola da gamba better than Jordi Savall. But that's not all he's good at. "Savall is not only a performer of genius but also a conductor, a scholar, a teacher, a concert impresario (he founded the Hespèrion XXI, Le Concert des Nations, and La Capella Reial de Catalunya ensembles, all of which accompanied him to New York), a record-label director (his is called Alia Vox), a minor film personality (he played on the soundtrack of the 1991 movie "Tous les Matins du Monde"), and the patriarch of a formidable musical family," Alex Ross wrote in The New Yorker in 2005.
One of the latest projects the 69-year-old Spanish Catalan player and performer has been focused on is called Jerusalem: City of two Peaces - Heavenly Peace and Earthly Peace (Alia Vox, 2009). This 435-page book and two-CD set delves into the religious songs, texts, and instrumental arrangements of three of Jerusalem's monotheistic religions. Click below to hear "Danse instrumentale" from that album.
In this week's Arts File on WQXR, WNYC's Kerry Nolan talks to Ara Guzelimian, Provost and Dean of The Juilliard School, about an upcoming three-day festival of concerts, talks and films at Lincoln Center that celebrate Savall's Jerusalem project. WQXR will broadcast one of the Lincoln Center concerts called Jerusalem, City of Heavenly and Earthly Peace, on May 3 at 7:00 P.M.

Note first the average sale for the four issues of the Independent on Sunday in July, a figure released by ABC today: 216,371. That was 29,581 fewer than the month before, down 12.03%, and 196 copies more than it sold in the same month last year, up 0.09%. In other words, the radical revamp - turning the Sindy into a single-section paper - has managed, thus far, to take the paper back in circulation terms to where it was a year ago.
Remember what the paper it told its readers before the relaunch? "In the age of information overload, the Independent on Sunday will make sense of an increasingly confusing world, with all the news values of a daily papers and the production values of a weekly magazine." Remember too what the editor, Tristan Davies, said at the time about appealing to "a whole tranche of newspaper readers out there who may not be traditional readers of newspapers - but who are still interested in news." It would bringing new people into the market.
I never believed that for a moment. The market for newsprinted papers is not expanding, unless they are given away for nothing. Here's what I wrote even before the Independent on Sunday had produced its first single format issue in a posting headlined Market will turn its back on a smaller Sindy: Davies "will doubtless get a big lift-off but it's highly doubtful that the initiative will work in the long run."
And here's how I greeted the first issue in a posting headlined The new Sindy - a dumbed down disaster: "The new-look single-section Sindy amounted to a jumble of non-news, facile features, poor picture display and gimmicky bits and pieces... There was froth instead of focus, trivia in place of information and superficiality rather than depth." I added that people attracted by its initial £1 cover price were unlikely to stay around once it returned to its £1.80 pricing. I also forecast that, within six months, the paper would resume its downward spiral.
I reported on the June ABC figures by saying Yes, I admit it: Sindy does better than expected because I had not anticipated a 17% uplift. I also thought that Davies and his team had made a better fist of the editorial content than in the first issue. However, I did point out that the paper had enjoyed a piece of luck because the day it chose to raise its price just happened to follow the attempted bombing at Glasgow airport. So every Sunday paper's sales soared.
Now comes proof that the Sindy's novelty has worn off surprisingly quickly. It would appear that it isn't going to decline gently over six months but very rapidly indeed. A closer look at the figures shows the depth of the problem. It is relying on more bulk sales than a year ago and it sold only 137,182 copies at full-rate last month compared to 145,722 in the same month a year ago.
I understand that senior executives at the Sindy's owner, Independent News & Media were somewhat less than gleeful at my previous comments, viewing them as unduly negative and/or entirely wrong. I was not being negative: I was being rational. And I was correct. The Sindy is doomed.
That comment should not be taken as a criticism of the editor, nor his staff. It is a fact, plain and simple. There has been much to appreciate in the paper down the years. It has employed many fine journalists. It has been nurtured by its current owners. But, ever since its controversial launch in 1990, it has never found a large enough audience to sustain it.

A short while after my outing with Tarzi, I climbed up some rickety metal scaffolding inside the eastern niche with Bert Praxenthaler, a Munich-based art historian and sculptor from the International Council on Monuments and Sites, a nongovernmental organization that receives UNESCO funding to shore up the niche walls, which were badly damaged by the Taliban blasts. In one of his first visits here some years ago, Praxenthaler recalls, he was rappelling inside the niche when he realized it was about to cave in. "It is just mud and pebbles baked together over millions of years," he said. "It lacks a natural cement, so the stone is rather weak. One slight earthquake would have destroyed everything." Praxenthaler and his team pumped 20 tons of mortar into cracks and fissures in the niche, then drilled dozens of long steel rods into the walls to support it."They are now stable," he said. Pointing to some faint smudges on the rough wall, he added: "You can see traces of the fingers of Buddhist workers, from 1,500 years ago." Praxenthaler's work led him to some serendipitous discoveries, including a tiny fabric bag—"closed with rope and sealed with two stamps"—concealed in a crevice behind the giant Buddha at the time it was constructed. "We still haven't opened it yet," he told me. "We think there is a Buddhist relic inside." (Praxenthaler is organizing a research project that will examine the presumably fragile contents.)
Preservation of the niches—work on the western one is scheduled to begin soon—is the first step, Praxenthaler said, in what many hope will be the reconstitution of the destroyed statues. During the past decade, conservationists, artists and others have floated many proposals, ranging from constructing concrete replicas to leaving the niches empty. Hiro Yamagata, a Japanese artist based in California, suggested that laser images of the Buddhas be projected onto the cliff face—an idea later abandoned as too costly and impractical.
For his part, Praxenthaler supports a method known as anastylosis, which involves combining surviving pieces of the Buddhas with modern materials. "It would be a fragmented Buddha, with gaps and holes, and later, they could fill in the gaps in a suitable way," he said. This approach has gathered strong backing from Governor Sarabi, as well as from archaeologists and art conservators, but it may not be feasible: most of the original Buddhas were pulverized, leaving only a few recognizable fragments. In addition, few Afghan officials think it politically wise, given the Islamic fervor and xenophobic sentiment of much of the country, especially among the Pashtun, to embrace a project celebrating the country's Buddhist past. "Conservation is OK, but at the moment they are critical about what smells like rebuilding the Buddha," Praxenthaler said. Others, including Tarzi, believe the niches should remain empty. New Buddhas, says Nancy Dupree, would turn Bamiyan into "an amusement park, and it would be a desecration to the artists who created the originals. The empty niches have a poignancy all their own." Tarzi agrees. "Leave the two Buddha niches as two pages of history," he told me, "so that future generations will know that at a certain moment, folly triumphed over reason in Afghanistan."
The funding that Tarzi currently gets from the French government allows him and his graduate students to fly from Strasbourg to Bamiyan each July, pay the rent on his house and employ guards and a digging team. He says he has been under no pressure to hasten his search, but the longer the work continues, the greater the likelihood his benefactors will run out of patience. "I've discovered sculptures, I've discovered the stupa, I've discovered the monasteries, I've developed a panorama of Bamiyan civilization from the first century to the arrival of Genghis Khan," he says. "The scientific results have been good."
Tarzi also continues to enjoy support from Afghan officials and many of his peers. "Tarzi is a well-educated, experienced Afghan archaeologist, and we need as many of those as we can get," says Brendan Cassar, the Kabul-based cultural specialist for UNESCO, which declared Bamiyan a World Heritage site in 2003. Nancy Dupree told me that Tarzi "wants to return something to Afghans to bolster their confidence and their belief [in the power of] their heritage. It's more than archaeology for him." But his ultimate goal, she fears, may never be realized. "What he has done is not to be sniffed at, he's found things there, but whether he will find the reclining Buddha, I really doubt."
After seven years of searching, even Tarzi has begun to hedge his bets. "I still have hope," he told me as we walked through irrigated fields of potatoes at the edge of his eastern excavations. "But I'm getting older—and weaker. Another three years, then I'll be finished."

foods The Best Fast Food Places f p @
17k views 6 items Follow Embed
Americans love cheap, fatty, delicious food, and there are more than enough places to choose from to make that ass larger, heart slower, and diabetes closer to reality. On the way though, why not ruin your body with some quality?
In n Out
For everyone living in California, Nevada, and Arizona, we have been bestowed a glorious place known as In n Out. Their menu may be lacking most of the excess of some other places, but what they do have is nothing less than amazing. As an added bonus, those in the know are privy to the "secret menu". Almost like Scientology, the closer you are to this place and the more money you drop on it, the more you get to know about it; but In n Out isn't a raging cult screwing it's members out of their entire savings.
Carls Jr
Of all the fast food places I've been to, Carl's jr, or Hardees as it's known south of the Donna Dixon line, has the best cooked cow meat for it's price range. It all has to do with the fact that this genius business invested in an open grill, which infuses all of the burgers with that fresh from the backyard BBQ taste.
Popeyes Chicken
F**k KFC, this is the real fried chicken. Everything I have had at this place is so good I have to check that I'm not getting a bj under the table. The only downside to all this deliciousness is that you can feel your heart slowing down from all that grease. That, and more often than not the only location you're gonna find a place is in an area you aren't willing to travel to after dark.

Del Taco
If, like me, you're fed up with Taco Bells interesting definition of "mexican" food, then this is what you meant to eat. For instance, Taco Bells quesadilla is tiny, flat, devoid of chicken and flavor, and more expensive than it deserves to be. Del Taco's quesadilla is large, cheap, filling, chunky with chicken you can see and taste, and at a reasonable price. One word of warning though, there is a decent chance you're going to feel pretty gassy later on, so do not eat this before a first date or job interview.

What Lasts Longer, Grey Fillings or White Fillings?
There are several factors that determine the longevity of a filling. These include the size of the filling, its location and whether it is subjected to high chewing forces. The material used is also an influencing factor.
White composite fillings have existed for a shorter time than grey fillings have. Their lifespan is also shorter than grey fillings. A study conducted in 2001 (Van Nieuwenhuysen) evaluated hundreds of fillings of different materials, and concluded that the average lifespan of composite fillings was 7.8 years, and the one for fillings made of amalgam was 12.8 years. But scientific research will ensure that the composite material used by dentists will last more years and will become more resistant to chewing forces. It is expected that the lifespan of white fillings will increase in years to come.
You must remember that the white composite fillings do not contain mercury, an element considered to be toxic by most dentists. This makes composites increasingly popular when choosing a filling material.

Sherie Rene Scott (born February 8, 1967)[2] is an American actress, singer, writer and producer. She is a co-founder of Grammy Award-winning Sh-K-Boom Records and Ghost light Records. She has also been seen in multiple Off-Broadway and Broadway musicals/plays, and appears on numerous solo and original cast recordings.
Life and career[edit]
Scott was born in Kentucky. When she was 4 years old, her family moved to Topeka, Kansas, where she grew up.[3] Scott moved from Topeka to New York City when she was 18 to attend the Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre. She is a writer in residence at Second Stage Theater and lives with her son in New York City.[4]
Scott will appear in The Front Page as 'Mollie Malloy' with an all-star cast including Nathan Lane, John Slattery, Holland Taylor, John Goodman, Jefferson Mays and Robert Morse. Jack O'Brien will direct the production premiering on Broadway Fall 2016 at the Broadhurst Theatre.[5]
Whorl Inside A Loop, written by Scott and Dick Scanlan, premiered August 27, 2015 at the Second Stage Theatre. Directed by Michael Mayer and Mr. Scanlan, Whorl garnered critical acclaim, including several 'Best of 2015 Theater' Lists.[6][7]
Scott's You May Now Worship Me, co-authored with Dick Scanlan, raised $200,000 to benefit the Phyllis Newman's Women's Health Initiative of The Actor's Fund.[8][9] The one night only fundraiser premiered March 31, 2008 at The Eugene O'Neill Theatre. You May Now Worship Me would later become the concept behind Everyday Rapture.
In 2010, Scott starred in the critically acclaimed production Everyday Rapture, which Scott wrote with co-author Dick Scanlan. Everyday Rapture began its run on Broadway at the American Airlines Theatre in previews April 19, 2010, and officially opened on April 29, 2010. The show played to sold out audiences throughout the run, finally ending its limited engagement on July 11, 2010.[10] Scott received Tony Award nominations for Best Book, and Best Leading Actress in a Musical, and Drama Desk Award nominations in the categories of Best Leading Actress, Best Book, and Best Musical for Rapture.[11][12]
On Broadway she has starred in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, garnering nominations for a Tony Award, a Drama Desk Award and an Outer Critics Circle Award.[13][14][15] She starred as Amneris in Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida (2000), for which she won the Clarence Derwent Award and was a Drama League Honoree.[16][17] The single "A Step Too Far" performed by Elton John, Heather Headley and Sherie Rene Scott from the 1999 Elton John And Tim Rice's Aida Concept Album charted at #15.
Other Broadway credits include Sally Simpson in Tommy (1993), Marty in Grease (1995–96), Maureen in Rent (1997). She originated the role of Ursula in The Little Mermaid (2007) for which she received her second Outer Critics Circle Award nomination for Outstanding Featured Actress in a Musical.[18][19][20] She starred as Pepa in the musical adaptation of "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown", on Broadway, which opened on November 4, 2010.[21][22][23] For this role she was nominated for the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Actress in a Musical.[24]
Off-Broadway roles include John Guare's play Landscape of the Body at the Signature Theatre, for which she received a 2006 Obie Award[25] and a Lucille Lortel Award[26] and was a Drama League honoree. Musicals include Jason Robert Brown's The Last Five Years[27][28] for which she received a Drama Desk Award nomination, and the title role in Debbie Does Dallas: The Musical.
Scott can be heard on the original off-broadway cast recording of The Last Five Years along with Norbert Leo Butz. She is a producer of the film The Last Five Years starring Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan. Scott also makes an appearance in the film.[29]
In regional theatre, she has appeared in world premiere productions of Randy Newman's Faust (1995). She appeared in Kander and Ebb's Over and Over, at the Signature Theatre, which was a musical adaptation of The Skin of Our Teeth, receiving a nomination for a Helen Hayes Award.[30][31]
Scott co-founded the Grammy Award–winning Sh-K-Boom Records and Ghostlight Records, which seeks to preserve original cast albums and solo recordings by Broadway artists.[32][33] The records, produced over 150 albums, garnered 3 Grammy awards, and 12 Grammy nominations. SKB/Ghostlight Grammy Awards include those for the cast albums of In the Heights, The Book of Mormon and Beautiful. SKB/Ghostlight received a 2006 Drama Desk Award for dedication to the preservation of musical theatre through cast recordings. The label won their first Grammy in 2009 for the Original Cast Recording of In The Heights. Scott ended her tenure in 2015.
Scott can be heard on numerous Grammy Award-winning and OBC cast albums, the Billboard hit single "A Step Too Far" with Elton John, "The Folks Who Live On The Hill" with jazz great Bill Charlap, as well as the critically acclaimed, "Sherie Rene…Men I've Had", Everyday Rapture the original Broadway cast album, and All Will Be Well: The Piece Of Meat Studio Sessions, produced with Todd Almond. Scott did a try-out of her new, "critically acclaimed" work,[34][35] Piece of Meat, in collaboration with Todd Almond, in the 2012 Adelaide Cabaret Festival and premiered it in New York City at 54 Below from October 16–27, 2012.[27][36]

Thrown together at the bootcamp stages of The X-Factor back in 2011, Little Mix (or Rhythmix as they were initially called) appeared destined to follow in the footsteps of cannon fodder girlbands such as Bad Lashes, Miss Frank and erm, Girlband, when they were selected by mentor Tulisa for the live stages.
But instead of crashing out in week three, Jade, Jesy, Leigh-Anne and Perrie not only became the first group to win the talent show, but have since gone onto score two UK number one singles, reach No.4 in the US with their debut album, 'DNA,' and usurp The Saturdays as Britain's premier all-female act.
Striking while the iron's hot, their second studio effort in twelve months, 'Salute,' proves that the quartet have no intention of surrendering their crown any time soon. In fact, if anything, the girls have made it virtually impossible for any of their rivals to catch up.
Indeed, steeped in the kind of slick R&B that they first showcased with their cover of En Vogue's 'Don't Let Go,' its twelve tracks position Little Mix as the closest the UK has come to producing a world-class outfit worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as their obvious 90s US influences.
Currently battling it out for this week's number one spot, the tongue-clacking beats and addictive harmonies of 'Move' have already signalled that the group have upped their game considerably. But there are plenty of equally sassy tunes elsewhere.
The opening title track throws everything from war sirens to stinging guitars to military chants into the mix to create a perfect attitude-laden statement of intent. The inspired cappella intro of 'Boy' initially recalls Destiny's Child's 'Bills, Bills, Bills' before venturing into the jerky R&B territory Timbaland pioneered with Aaliyah. While produced by urban pop prodigy MNEK, 'Nothing Feels Like You' is a triumphant blend of booming basslines, dubstep-lite beats and soaring tribal melodies.
The more melancholic offerings are just as accomplished. 'Towers' is the kind of emphatic but soulful ballad that their X-Factor predecessor Leona Lewis made her name with, while the emotionally-charged piano-led 'These Four Walls' and 'Good Enough' allow the girls' noticeably improved vocals to shine in all their glory.
Cleverly playing to their strengths, Little Mix have made an impressively mature yet still utterly infectious record which should make everyone immediately stand up and salute.
Jon is a music and film obsessive from Wigan. His current favourite acts are Haim, AlunaGeorge, London Grammar, Disclosure and Jessie Ware. He has tried but he still doesn't really get the fuss about 'Blurred Lines' or 'I Love It.'

Toronto one hundred years ago was a thriving commercial city in the midst of the boom Canada had enjoyed since the turn of the century. Attracted by the promise of opportunities in the new country that contrasted with the bleak prospects he faced in his native North of England, Arthur Lismer emigrated there in 1911 and soon found a position in Toronto at the prestigious commercial design firm of Grip Ltd.
There he met J.E.H. MacDonald, by then the firm's head designer, as well as Tom Thomson, also an accomplished commercial artist if still a novice as a painter, and the ebullient Frank Johnston, who Lismer would later depict with customary good humour in a series of cartoons. Lismer was excited by his adopted country, in particular by the beauty of wilderness areas such as Bon Echo Provincial Park in Southern Ontario, with its ancient native pictographs carved into the massive Mazinaw Rock as well as huge inscriptions from Lismer's beloved Walt Whitman, whose writings were held dear by several of the future members of the Group of Seven.
What Toronto still lacked in those boom years was a public art gallery; these days, of course, it can boast the world-class Art Gallery of Ontario, designed by Toronto-born architect Frank Gehry and home to a superb collection of paintings by Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, many of which have been loaned to the exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery, as well as several rooms devoted to David Milne, a singular Canadian genius whose work has been a major revelation for me on this trip.
One hundred years ago, there was little appetite for the visual arts. Even the National Gallery of Canada (NGC) in Ottawa was a poorly funded body whose budget for new paintings still strongly favoured older, more conservative European work.
Today the NGC is a magnificent institution with a substantial collection of art from all periods, including a significant holding of contemporary work and several rooms given to works by Thomson and the Group of Seven. What impressed me most about these paintings, which include Canadian classics such as MacDonald's The Tangled Garden and The Solemn Land and Lawren Harris's North Shore, Lake Superior, as well as several of the masterpieces leant to the show at Dulwich, was both their ambitious scale – many of these paintings are big – and their consistent clarity of design.
The aesthetics of commercial design was something these painters learned from and also something they had to get over, according to Charles Hill, Curator of Canadian Art at the NGC, who met me at the gallery. The sinuous naturalism and simplified colours of Art Nouveau would continue to surface periodically in MacDonald's work throughout his life, while some of Thomson's best early canvases are clearly informed by the style. However, the need to earn a living often left little time for painting, with only the most conservative painters guaranteed an income from selling their work. Still, though the climate for young Canadian artists with something new to say was undeniably hard, gradually some of the future members of the Group of Seven felt sufficiently confident to tackle the modern urban themes that other art movements, such as New York's Ash Can School, were beginning to establish in the public consciousness as valid subjects for serious art.
Lawren Harris had studied in Berlin in the middle years of the previous decade, where his teacher, Franz Skarbina, had also made a name for himself as a painter of grimly realistic urban scenes. Harris returned to Toronto determined to achieve something entirely independent of the European painting styles he had spent so much time learning, but it was not until he saw an exhibition of paintings by J.E.H. MacDonald at Toronto's recently formed Arts and Letters Club that he realised he was not alone in that ambition.
The famous photograph of The Group of Seven, minus Carmichael (see blog post from 02.09.11), was taken at the Arts and Letters Club in 1920, the year the Group formed and the year the Club moved into its permanent home at 14 Elm Street. I was given privileged access to the Arts and Letters Club archives during my visit there, for which I'm greatly indebted to the current president, Margaret McBurney, and my aunt, Jane Beecroft, who has long campaigned for Toronto's heritage. The Club's current members still sit and talk around the same solid oak tables seen in the photo.
Harris and MacDonald struck up a great friendship and, as well as painting a number of Toronto's own gritty urban subjects, made several trips to places in the northern part of Southern Ontario and the Laurentian Mountains in Southern Quebec, where MacDonald sketched the study for Laurentian Hillside, October, a breakthrough work for the artist. Crucially for what they would later go on to achieve, in 1913 the two painters took a trip to the US city of Buffalo, just across the border at Niagara Falls, to see an exhibition of Scandinavian art including images by Harald Sohlberg and Gustaf Fjaestad. These painters' decorative snowscapes were a revelation, reminding the young Canadians of their own landscape and suggesting a way forward that seemed to owe very little to mainstream European traditions.
Harris quickly realised that the new art movement needed a hub of activity. The heir to the massive Massey-Harris fortune, he not only had no need to earn a living, but was able to contribute substantial resources at significant moments toward the success of the new art movement. In 1913, sensing such a moment, he and Dr James MacCallum, the new movement's first patron, advanced funds toward the construction of what would be called, with typical modernist functionality, The Studio Building.
Toronto is home to half of my extended family, and this project is in part an ancestral journey through a land where the Beecrofts have lived since the mid-19th century. With the help of another beloved aunt, the composer Norma Beecroft, and, in particular, David Silcox, President of Sotheby's Canada and a renowned authority on Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, I was shown around the Studio Building by current resident Abe Avraamides. Now a private home, albeit one with national significance, its three floors once housed six studios between them, each capaciously proportioned with broad, high windows, as video clip 18 on the CBC's Painters in the Wilderness site makes clear.
Of the later members of the Group of Seven, only MacDonald, in addition to Harris himself, could afford to take sole possession of a studio in the new building, while Thomson and Jackson shared a studio between them. Jackson went off to war soon afterwards and Thomson, unable to afford the rent, moved into a shack behind the building. This dwelling, which is to Canadians what Dove Cottage is to the English, now sits in the grounds of the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg, north of Toronto.
It was at the McMichael that I finally met Jim and Sue Waddington, with whom I'd been exchanging emails for months before setting off on this journey. Jim and Sue have been seeking out Group of Seven painting sites for some 30 years and, by their own admission, have had a lot of fun in doing so. They now give talks all over the country and have helped enormously with some of the places I'm trying to find. Last year the McMichael staged an exhibition of their photographs displayed alongside the paintings whose views they record. The Footprints site that accompanied the show is probably the best resource on the Group of Seven anywhere on the web.
Georgian Bay
Dr James MacCallum was a leading ophthalmologist and a professor at the University of Toronto. Never an artist himself, he came to his love of painting through his passion for the Canadian wilderness.
His cottage on an island at the southern end of Georgian Bay became a haven to which most of the artists from the new movement were gradually invited to come and paint for extended periods during the summer months. Between 1912 and 1916, first MacDonald, then Lismer, Jackson, Thomson and Varley would all spend time there. It is perhaps remarkable that such a small geographical area would inspire so many of these painters' early masterpieces, several of which, such as Varley's Stormy Weather, Georgian Bay, Lismer's September Gale, and Jackson's Night, Pine Island and March Storm, Georgian Bay, are featured in the exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery.
For the next few weeks, as far as Thunder Bay on the west side of Lake Superior, I will be travelling with another Canadian relative, my uncle, the film-maker Stuart Beecroft, who, in addition to driving the two of us into some of Ontario's more far-flung wilderness areas, will be shooting and editing two short films for the blog, the first of which will feature in the next post. My uncle and I were invited out to the islands in the southern part of Georgian Bay by George and Kittie Fells, who have spent many summers in their cottage in this otherworldly landscape. In fact, the wind that is such a constant hazard on Georgian Bay made the water too rough on the day we had planned to go even for the Fells's motorboat to venture out. Lismer, his wife and young child encountered similar conditions the first time they tried to come out to MacCallum's island and were forced to spend a night on another, more sheltered island before they could reach the MacCallum place.
We also tried again the following day, when the wind had eased, and eventually found the site of Varley's Stormy Weather, Georgian Bay, also in the exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery, though not until it had dawned on us that the water level in the bay, as elsewhere in the Great Lakes, had dropped by several feet since this painting was done. Thus the wide channel of Varley's image is considerably narrower today, and the white pine in the picture, though still standing (a remarkable feat in this hostile environment), is now wizened by age and weather and has a younger tree for close company.
A mile or so further out into the bay lie the Pine Islands, painted by both Jackson and Thomson, which both men reached by canoe where in less than ideal weather even going by motorboat can be a hazardous enterprise. Landing on South Pine Island, we quickly found the sites of two images loaned to the Dulwich exhibition: Thomson's Pine Island, looking almost exactly like the sketch; and Jackson's canvas Night, Pine Island (depicting the same trees as in Thomson's picture, but across an inlet), a magical painting in which the artist has clearly compressed the natural dimensions of the island to fit neatly within the frame. Intriguingly, Jackson has also altered the direction of the wind-sculpting of the trees in his picture, as if the prevailing wind were from the east, not the west.
Such changes may illustrate nothing more than the difference between a sketch done in situ and a more considered studio work, or they may point to a fundamental difference in working methods between the two artists, as I hope to discover in exploring Algonquin Park, the area most associated with Tom Thomson, and the subject of my next blog post.

The Plus Europe Conference
The Plus Europe Conference is a civic meeting that takes place in spring. It is jointly organized by Plus Europe, selected Chambers of Commerce, European Rotary Clubs as well as other civic entities.
The conference focuses mainly on four basic areas:
- European Governance
- European Financial Convergence
- European Fiscal Harmonization
- European Social Policies
The goal is to generate debates oriented to the consolidation of a European Governance Model and to provide relevant documents in this respect.
