Dates: 3rd March to 11th June 2017
An exhibition of work by the four artists shortlisted for the annual Deutsche Borse Photography Prize shows images by Nikolai Bakharev, Zanele Muholi, Mikhael Subotzky and Patrick Waterhouse, and Viviane Sassen.

The personal and political are also interwoven in Zanele Muholi's tender, unflinching portraits and testimonies of the South African LGBTI community. South Africa also inspires the work of Mikhael Subotzky and Patrick Waterhouse while Viviane Sassen's African childhood has given her "a daring and original eye as a fashion photographer" (The Guardian).

Tube: Piccadilly Circus Station, Leicester Square Station
Dates: 21st April - 25th July 2015

Stephen Daldry, the man who brought Billy Elliot to the London stage, brings "giant flair" to the production which avoids a chronological list and instead hops from John Major back to Churchill then forward to Wilson and so on. "Wonderfully funny", said The Telegraph of the original production, "but also genuinely moving".

The band arrives separately and can usually be seen from about 11.30am. It is a spectacular show of pomp and ceremony and it's also the only time when you will see horses legally at a full gallop in a Royal Park - with a ton and a half of cannon in tow.

Robin Williams musical tribute "Seize the Day" Remix
Mostly Inspired by two of his biggest movies Dead Poet's Society and Mrs. Doubtfire with other samples sprinkled into a very cool new tune and tribute.
I've been in radio since 1981, starting on Cape Cod, and in Boston, Massachusetts where I grew up. (when The Sox and Patriots both broke everyone's hearts, and the Celtics ruled. Funny how things change.)
After 3 years in Las Vegas in the late 80's, early 90's I was looking for work and luckily found myself here in Cleveland in 1991, through some mutual radio friends. I got to play the hits as Jammin 92's Night guy until 1999, and met Britney Spears back when she wasn't making people gag.
After watching my former company screw up the Jammin' Oldies thing for a couple of years, I came to Majic in 2001, the best decision I ever made!

Dissected: Patchwork
Saving a race in the span of a commercial break.
You've seen pothole repairs on public roads—a guy heaps asphalt off a truck and mashes it down with a shovel. Racetracks have found a better way. Fast-Track 500, a polyester resin originally developed for patching refrigerated warehouses, cures within 15 minutes (five even, if heated) and lasts about two years. The resin has a texture similar to asphalt, so drivers hardly notice the difference. Tracks nationwide have kits on hand, ready to mix and pour at a red flag's notice. Why doesn't your city use it? It costs nearly eight times as much as cold patch.
This is how you'd create a uniform set of large Bosch or Goodyear logos. It's also how Michelangelo painted the sistine chapel.

Today Matt, Bertrand and I are going to film a .NET Show episode focusing on ASP.NET AJAX. These are really fun because it gives us a chance to talk informally about the technology we have been working on for a while and then walk through some fun demos. I think of it like having a beer with some fellow developers — just recorded for millions to see 😉
What topics would you like to see us address?
Even more fun, I thought it would be cool for you folks to suggest some out-of-context words such as "waterfall", "diaper", or "SUV" for us to try to work into the conversation… You can then tune into the show next month to see how we did… Any suggestions?
We need to get them by noon PST, so bring on the suggestions!

By Diana Waldhuber
Wow, this week's episode of DogTown followed not one, but six dog stories. And there was a twist! Because of the twist, I'm splitting up this blog into a three-day extravaganza -- two dogs per day.
Now where was I? Oh yeah, this episode followed six dogs: Wiggles, Aristotle, Remington, Ruger, Tuffy, and Johnny -- all of which had been taken in by Dogtown, treated for their injuries and illnesses, rehabilitated (and not the Amy Winehouse type of rehab!), and then adopted out.
It was not only a follow-up on their lives, but a way to say thanks to the people at Dogtown who'd saved them from certain death.
First up was Wiggles. This little dog was discarded like trash before being rescued and taken to Dogtown. Wiggles walked drunkenly and was prone to falling over, not to mention Wiggles' inability to control his bowels (we're talking a lot of accidents here!). Dogtown suspected this to be the reason he was dumped. Seriously, these people were heartless fools.
Wiggles may have had problems, but he also was adorable, loveable, and had the sweetest personality you'd ever seen in a dog. Unfortunately, the vet believed Wiggles' problems were congenital and therefore most likely untreatable. He would always be the uncoordinated pup with the pooping problem.
No matter, Wiggles and the people at Dogtown found someone who wanted him. However, there was a hitch. The woman interested in Wiggles owned many birds, so they took Wiggles to the Best Friends bird sanctuary to test his reaction when placed in an environment full of feathered creatures. Wiggles paid no mind to the birds and was quickly adopted by the woman.
Final report on Wiggles: his family loves him and his ability to make them all laugh. Even his involuntary pooping is at an all time low. Wiggles is now their lifelong companion, drunken, unbalanced walk and all.
The second DogTown update was about Tuffy (warning: tissue alert!). He was found along with 150 dogs who had belonged to a now deceased animal hoarder. Only a little puppy, Tuffy was constantly being attacked by the other starving, dehydrated dogs. Tuffy's injuries were so badly infected, in fact, that Dogtown staff members didn't know if he'd make it. It took a week's worth of operations just to clean out the wounds, but Tuffy looked to be a real fighter.
It was a miracle! No longer the scared, injured puppy, Tuffy began to make friends at his foster home. With his tummy still bandaged and a cone on his head, Tuffy ventured out and made doggy friends within the first few minutes. Bouncing and playing around, Tuffy was just like a normal puppy -- full of life and love and innocence.
Tuffy now lives with a great family. He gets along with the kids and the other dogs, and there are no signs of either physical or emotional scars. He is just a loving, happy dog that has a very special place in the hearts of the people at Dogtown.
Tune in tomorrow for the stories of Aristotle and Johnny …

In Wake of Zimmerman Verdict, Stevie Wonder Boycotts Florida Venues
A little over a week ago, in the aftermath of the George Zimmerman verdict, Stevie Wonder announced that he'd be boycotting the state of Florida and all other states with Stand Your Ground laws.
It's a decision that's been heralded by a number of other performers—including Dionne Warwick and Mary Mary—who have joined Wonder in his boycott.
But what do people in Florida, specifically those in the Florida music scene, think about this boycott? Jerry Dufrain, co-owner of The Orpheum music venue in Tampa, weighs in. Craig Kopp, a host at Takeaway affiliate WUSF in Tampa, discusses the backlash against the state and whether there really is a problem with Florida.
