Today is 70th birthday of a prominent Azerbaijani singer, diplomat Polad Bulbuloglu.
Polad Murtuza oglu Mammadov was born on February 4, 1945 in Baku Azerbaijan. His father was Bulbul, a famous Azeri opera singer, and exposed Polad to musical culture from an early age. His mother Adelaida Mammadova who is currently the director of the Bulbul Museum is a native of Batumi and of mixed Azeri and Georgian descent. Polad studied the piano in a music school and then studied composing in the Baku Academy of Music, under Gara Garayev. By the age of 17 he composed several songs that were performed by professionals, as well as songs for his friend Muslim Magomayev. Bülbüloğlu's singing talent was also discovered on a trip to Moscow with Magomayev, where Bülbüloğlu recorded his own songs in the Azerbaijani language.
In his career, Bülbüloğlu combined modern music style with national Azeri music to create a new musical stream in the Soviet Union. He toured the entire USSR and performed around the world. In 1982, Bülbüloğlu became a National Artist of the Azerbaijan SSR. He participated in the Soviet television program and festival Song of the Year and won the first prize on four occasions. His songs were performed, among others, by Muslim Magomayev, Joseph Kobzon and Lev Leshchenko.
In 1969, Bülbüloğlu became a member of the USSR Union of Composers and the USSR Union of Cinematographers. He composed music for over twenty feature films and had leading roles in several. Among others, he worked with the Russian director Eduard Smolny. Bülbüloğlu has a star at the Moscow Square of Performers, inaugurated in 2000. He received a doctorate of the History of Art from the Azerbaijan National Academy of Culture and holds an honorary professorship in the Azerbaijan State University of Culture and Arts.
Polad Bulbuloglu is the Azerbaijani Ambassador to Russia.
Note that President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has signed an order on awarding Polad Bulbuloglu Sheref (Honor) order.

Archie Bronson Outfit
Dead Funny
Video Stream
Greetings, pop pickers. Say hallelujah for another succulent chunk of R&D (that's Rhythm & Dada) from South London's swamp-dwelling crowd-pleasers, Archie Bronson Outfit.
Released on the 22nd May on 7 inch, "Dead Funny" is a rollicking tale of oral pleasure, manic depression and disco dancing, written during a period of intense R&D (that's research & development), prior to capturing its raw-boned fonk in Nashville with producer Jacquire King.
It's just one of a dozen prime cuts you'll find on the ABO's most excellent second album "Derdang Derdang" which has received a host of rave reviews.
"There's a bit of a theme running through the album of kicking off the shackles and dancing, letting go and having some fun," says Arp Cleveland, the Archies' lyric writer and man behind the skins. "I think it's most explicit in Dead Funny, which is about clinging to sex in a shaky relationship and being lost in a chemically imbalanced search for romance... but perversely enjoying the struggle and celebrating it!"
With its pendulum bassline and prison-door guitars, seasoned with a dash of distorted vibrophone, Dead Funny is also one of the highlights of their stomping live set, which has just been cutting a swathe across Europe in support of the album's release.

Louis Garneau Pilot LE Bib Shorts - $159.95
There's something to be said for simplicity in design. Often, it seems that manufacturers get so caught up in trying to design the 'ultimate,' that they forget what they originally set out to accomplish. The results can be ridiculously complex and overbuilt to the point where more actually becomes less. This is not often the case with the good folks at Louis Garneau. Most of their designs attack a problem in its simplest form, with outstanding results. Case in pointthe Pilot LE Bib Short. Starting with the basic construction, Garneau made Pilot LE bib shorts from a well-positioned blend of Lycra Power, Lycra Pro, and Power Mesh. For compressive support, Lycra Power has been placed at various points on the legs of the shorts. Basically, this fabric features more Lycra fibers per ounce/square yard than typical Lycra compositions. So, the material provides an elastic hold on your muscle groups, supporting and shielding them from oscillation and road vibration. This results in a decrease in overall muscle fatigue, while also, according Garneau, a 10 to 20% improvement in blood circulation. And when the aforementioned is paired with the Lycra Pro material, the shorts give a heightened level of recovering stretch to ensure your freedom of movement. Further ensuring this characteristic, Garneau designed the shorts with a seamless inner-leg and a ten-panel construction. This not only leads to an increase in flexibility, but, more obviously, it lends itself to eliminating abrasion. Garneau even took this concept a step further by only using flatlock stitching throughout the shorts and uppers. However, all the while, both fabrics possess an extraordinary ability to manage moisture. This means that riding with damp legs after 40k is now a thing of the past. Securing the Pilot LE's precise fit took a few steps. First, was the compressive fit. Secondly, Garneau included its Powerbands at the leg cuffs. - $159.95


text: Best dressed of the week If we can't find Best Dressed candidates in the week that the Met Ball happened, we may as well pack our bags and leave. Lucky for you, amid some real disasters, we found plenty to rave about, and a few parties close to home delivered sartorial excellence too. Alisa Miller and Lisa Williams are still in business… 9th May 2014 Kelly Eastwood Firstly, this is such a neat little look, with a nipped in waist and lovely silhouette. Secondly, it is a wonderful combination of sporty fabric and elegant cut. Lastly, there is nothing to frame an outfit quite like the loving embrace of a handsome man (David Grievson).Alessandra Balazs Not only did Chiltern Firehouse win Restaurant of the Year at the Tatler Restaurant Awards but it won in the style stakes too, with Andre Balazs's daughter (pictured here with Guillaume Glipa and Mark Wakefield) out-glamming the chefs by a mile in this tasty Emilia Wickstead jumpsuit.Chloe Grace Moretz When the Met Ball photos came through, the Tatler fashion department launched into a furious debate over who was THE best dressed. Voices were raised, shoes were thrown and it got personal. The police were called, charges were dropped and everyone agreed that Chloe, in this quirky but beautiful Chanel gown, was the winner.Rosie Huntington-Whiteley But Rosie came a close second. In this Balmain dress, she looks strong, she looks elegant and, boy, just look at those pins.Georgia May Jagger Georgia May is screamingly hot, and even more so in this Mugler by David Koma dress, which references Liz Hurley's Versace number. All that's missing is a stuttering, fop-haired actor on her arm but Hugh Grant isn't always around when we need him.Beyonce If in doubt, ask yourself, 'What would Beyonce do?' It has worked for us so far: we managed to get a ring on it by wearing a leotard and doing a special dance, when we were stranded on a desert island we were survivors, and we each have two children named Blue Ivy. So next time we are invited to a party with the theme 'White tie and decorations', (like, say, the Met Ball), we will wear this: a Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci dress, which is racy but chic, and glamorous but edgy. Spot on. Read on... Extreme Jewellery: Elizabeth Gage brooch Beauty Flash. This week we're loving... Food crush: Maple Bourbon Sweet Potato

- Live Album
Between the 'sound board' audio recordings on Live From Planet X, this CD offers fans a chance to own the most comprehensive glance into Doom's lengthy career available. Debuting under the alias Zev Love X, Doom first graced the world of hip-hop on the 3rd Bass single "The Gas Face." A couple years later Zev re-emerged alongside his younger brother DJ Subroc, in New York's legendary KMD. The group's first album Mr. Hood was released in 1991 on Elektra Records but KMD was quickly dropped from the record label when, in the wake of Subroc being killed by a car, they returned in '93 with an unflinching attitude and an album titled Bl_ck B_st_rds. Deeply affected by his brother's tragic death, while also carrying a grudge against the industry that screwed him, Zev disappeared from the rap scene for five years. It wasn't until 1999, that Zev suddenly reemerged, face masked, as M.F. DOOM with his 1999 solo debut and underground classic Operation: Doomsday. Since then DOOM has completely reinvented the indie-rap landscape with a string of offbeat projects under an array of monikers: Metal Fingers Presents Special Herbs 1-8, Viktor Vaughn in Vaudeville Villain (2003), Viktor Vaughn in Venomous Villain 2 (2004), King Geedorah in Take Me to Your Leader (2003), and King Geedorah as leader of the nine man group Monsta Island Czars on Escape From Monsta Island (2003), Madvillain (along with Madlib) in Madvillainy (2004), and MF DOOM in MM Food? (2004). Live From Planet X includes over 50 minutes of live recordings spanning Operation Doomsday, Madvillain, MM...Food?, and more.

Howdy Y'all,
I'll be driving to Philadelphia on Friday, October 24th to speak at this year's PumpCon. This lecture continues that of Black Hat USA, focusing on the exploitation--rather than the origin--of timing vulnerabilities that I've found in certain revisions of the MSP430's serial bootstrap loader.

Is Nato's Afghan timetable a milestone or millstone?
The Chicago Nato summit marked a "milestone". That was the word chosen to spin the summit.
It is a more than usually evocative and revealing word. "Milestone" makes me think not of the end of a journey, but of the long slog still ahead. Nearly there, but not quite.
It looks like a tombstone and sounds like a millstone.
The Nato leaders would have given their game away a little more had they chosen an image that implied more of an unstoppable momentum. A runaway truck or a falling boulder. Because that is what this summit was really about.
There will be a handover of combat operations to Afghan control next year. While the military brass interpret this simply as not being in the lead in fighting, the politicians go a little further, suggesting Nato will only play a "support" role.
And then, on 31 December 2014, all Nato combat operations will stop. No ifs and no buts. No conditions on the ground, no generals, and no wider political changes will stop that.
That much had already been decided, but this summit was a public display of inevitability. Future leaders are tied to the timetable.
It might be quite awkward for a President-elect Mitt Romney to turn around after November's US presidential election and tell his Nato allies that they are staying in Afghanistan a bit longer after all. He would not have any allies with him - or many voters.
'Ultimate nightmare'
The idea of an orderly progress towards a reasonable end state was paramount. But occasional fractures here gave a glimpse of the messy reality that lies beyond.
First, the French. There would be no rush for the exit, we were told. The policy of "in together, out together" would stand.
No matter that the new French president had made it quite clear all his troops would come home by the end of this year.
He did not budge or fudge, but Nato's leaders rather ignored him and just hoped no-one else would follow his lead and start elbowing others out of the way in their desire to get home.
Then there was Pakistan. By the end of the meeting everyone thought there was an end in sight to the row about supply lines. But it underlined a couple of important points.
Pakistan is an awkward ally, when it deserves that description at all. It is by no means on side and while Nato moves into its new and as yet ill-defined post-2014 role, it will still be a neighbour to Afghanistan.
It is hard to see how Pakistan will have stopped being a safe-haven for the Taliban and a source of instability to Afghanistan.
The focus on the long and difficult supply lines was also a reminder of how vulnerable Nato will be as it trundles thousands of tons of equipment home, and men and materiel queue up to get out.
Then there was us. The British have been perfectly behaved allies in American eyes, but one British official somewhat gave the game away.
He said the absolute and obvious truth when he told the political press pack: "It is unrealistic to assume that Afghanistan is going to be completely secure and there is no possibility of a terrorist threat re-emerging in some part of it."
But that is the ultimate nightmare: that the allies will quick-march home, past the milestones, in time to meet the date ringed in the calendar, only to find the very threat they fought for 13 years to eliminate emerges once more.

Pretty Miss IdinaMature
We were at the airport, anxiously awaiting Idina's arrival. Because as much as I was jealous of Idina, I was still excited to have her back. I didn't resent Idina herself, after all. Just the eating disorder.
As soon as Pretty Miss Idina stepped out of the ramp that goes from the airplane to the airport, I couldn't help but think how adorable she was. How brutal eating disorders are, twisting a girl's beautiful appearance into a monster that only they see! As we hugged Idina and welcomed her home, I felt that old hatred for anorexia rising in my heart. How dare it attack my sister?!
We got Idina's stuff all loaded into our car and took off for home. Things were going to return to normal. Or at least, we thought they would.

Mike Keneally and Beer for Dolphins Fall Tour Dates with the Travis Larson Band! Plus Andy Timmons and Teddy Kumpel!
Mike Keneally fans everywhere had been eagerly anticipating the release of Scambot 2, Mike's long awaited follow-up to 2009's Scambot. Perhaps even more anticipated is the chance to see Keneally on the road with his two favorite compadres, Bryan Beller and Joe Travers, collectively known as Beer for Dolphins. Fans of MK&BfD will hear a bevy classic 90's tunes from albums like Sluggo! and Dancing among more than a few other terrific surprises. It's great to have this classic trio playing together again and boy-o-boy is it ever hard to make that happen! Mike has been quite the busy fellow working on a number of side projects not to mention recording and touring the globe doing nearly impossible things in Joe Satriani's band.
And as if the splendor of MK & BfD live weren't enough to stuff the pallet of the muso-cognoscenti, MK will be supported by the riff-crunchy stylings of the Travis Larson Band! Yes, Travis and crew, Jennifer Young – bass, and Dale Moon – drums, will be all over the place this fall in musical combinations of which mere mortals could only dream! Travis is putting the finishing touches on a new album soon to blaze brand new sonic frontiers. You'll find all the details right here kiddies!

Andy is a true gem of a guy and the fact that he's one of the world's greatest guitar players is simply a bonus. We're so gosh darned proud to work with Andy we just don't know what to do with ourselves! Well, that's only partly true. We're proud for sure but we've also been busy working to get Andy out on the road this fall. Fans of Andy's fiery rich tone will be positively giddy to know there's a new Andy Timmons Band album just around the corner! We'll put out the word just as soon as we can but you all should do your dead-level best to catch one of the shows. Andy will be welcoming the Travis Larson Band along for most of the ride because Travis is everywhere powering one of the hardest working bands known to man.
When you see the Andy Timmons Band, Travis Larson Band, or Mike Keneally and Beer for Dolphins live on stage, 'gobsmacked' may be a lasting state of mind.
Now, as if that weren't enough to straighten out yer short-n-curlies, please also give a warm welcome to Teddy Kumpel. You may have seen Teddy almost anywhere covering half the planet playing guitar and singing background for none other than Joe Jackson. But when on his own, Teddy wrangles a six-string in a way few others are capable by looping layer upon layer into a veritable guitar orchestra, a LOOPestra if you will. Check the show listings for when and where to catch Teddy's fretboard acrobatics.

MORGLBL's 6th Album, Tea Time For Punks, Drops May 26 !
As Free Electric Sound prepares Tea Time For Punks — the explosive sixth album from French fusion trio, MORGLBL — to hit late this month, today a brand new track, "God Shaved The Queen," has been released through PureGrainAudio.
Comprised of guitarist Christope Godin, bassist Ivan Rougny, and drummer Aurelian Ouzoulias,MORGLBL has become known throughout the cosmos for their exploratory energy and bizarre musical concoctions, their madcap jazz/jam metal fusion style virtually void of vocals, but their tunes communicating a language all their own. Having toured extensively around the entire globe, the band has successfully performed all over Europe, and has raided the United States, Russia, China and more, sharing the stage with the likes of Liquid Tension Experiment, Bumblefoot, and Umphrey's McGee among countless others.
Now in their eighteenth year as a unit, MORGLBL prepares their thunderous sixth studio full-length Tea Time For Punks for release through Free Electric Sound, the instrumental subdivision of progressive rock/metal label group, The Laser's Edge. These three virtuosos are well endorsed clinicians and have developed a following individually but when they come together the fireworks really start. Tea Time For Punks doesn't deviate from the tried and true MORGLBL formula, just delivers it with more astounding creativity than ever, aiming to capture new fans through their new US label partner. Envision equal parts vocal-free fusion and crushing metal power chords, then inject a healthy dose of tongue-in-cheek humor, like Primus, Steve Vai, Allan Holdsworth and Frank Zappa in a high-speed blender, and you've got a grip on what Tea Time For Punks beholds.
The first single from Tea Time For Punks is playing at PureGrainAudio; swing by to check out the exclusive stream of "God Shaved The Queen" now atTHIS LOCATION.
Recorded during December 2014 — drums by Vincent Thermidor at Studio TF, guitars at Gnõ-Gnõ Studio and bass at Van's Studio — Tea Time For Punks was mixed by Enzo d'Agostino at Elia Studio and mastered at Conkrete Studio by Mobo. Completed with artwork by Pierre Bernard and Peter Puke including a collage by Puke, Tea Time For Punks boasts over an hour of nonstop freakshow entertainment fit for virtually any open-minded rock fan.Free Electric Sound will release the album digitally and on CD worldwide on May 26th. Stand by for further music and info on the album to see release in the coming days.

"Crazy French phenomenon Christophe Godin applies his nothing short of bonkers rock guitar abilities to this ferocious yet tongue-in-cheek display of post-Vai/Zappa composition and musicianship. Jazzy it ain't, but full of immense playing technique and cool tones it most definitely is. Be afraid." – Guitarist Magazine
Tony MacAlpine's Concrete Gardens Tour!
The name Tony MacAlpine is synonymous with modern musical virtuosity. Whether performing as a solo artist, band member, session player, touring hired-gun, or as a producer, MacAlpine continues to prove that he truly is one of rock's most amazing and versatile musicians. He incorporates classical, jazz and fusion influences into the hard rock/metal genre on both guitar and keyboards.
These are the formidable skills TMac brings to his highly anticipated new album Concrete Gardens which drops everywhere on April 21, 2015. Fans across the US will get the first chance to see Tony perform these new tunes. Backing MacAlpine live once again are drum phenom Aquilies Priester and the king of snarling bass tone, Bjorn Englen. Tour support is provided by BMP artist LoNero and a select few shows in the midwest include Hephystus.
Concrete Gardens will be available as a standard CD and in Special Edition form complete with a DVD performance of the entire album shot by EMG-TV.

Aristocrats "Tres Caballeros" North America Tour!
The Aristocrats reveal the title of their third studio album:
Tres Caballeros
Plus: North America Summer 2015 Tour Dates Announced
"virtuosic, melodic, spontaneous, outrageous and fun" [Guitar World]
(photo by Mike Mesker)
Fresh off their wildly successful 2013-2014 Culture Clash world tour, The Aristocrats – by any measure the hottest new band in instrumental rock/fusion today – rewrote their own rules for their third studio album, Tres Caballeros, which is slated for release in late June.
After two fairly raw trio albums, guitarist Guthrie Govan (Steven Wilson, Asia/GPS), bassist Bryan Beller (Joe Satriani, Dethklok) and drummer Marco Minnemann (Steven Wilson, Joe Satriani) set up camp at legendary Sunset Sound studios in Hollywood, CA, where Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones and Van Halen all recorded landmark albums.
The result: Nine new compositions of greater sonic depth and breadth than ever before, with unique textures and lush layering augmenting the band's preternatural ability to improvise both individually and as a group at the highest levels possible. But not to worry – it's all still tempered with a steadfast refusal to take themselves too seriously, and The Aristocrats are still having more fun than a fusion band has any right to have.
"We've learned a lot since we started this band – four years, three studio albums, two live DVDs and about a billion notes ago! – and I think our latest offering reflects this in all kinds of ways," says guitarist Guthrie Govan. "The decision to road-test our new material in front of a live audience before commencing the recording process; the choice to record in a studio which had some thoroughly inspiring rock'n'roll 'mojo'; our sudden urge to become more bold and experimental with overdubs rather than feeling any pressure to record exclusively in a strict 'trio' format… all of this has had some kind of positive effect on the way the new record came out. Plus, I think the material on this album is some of the most interesting stuff we've ever written for each other, so… here's hoping our noble listeners will like the finished product as much as we do!"
The Tres Caballeros tour will bring the band's new musical vision in trio form to stages across North America in their most ambitious jaunt yet. The Aristocrats will be supported by fellow rock/fusion power trio The Travis Larson Band.
Full details on each date can be found on the Aristocrats website calendar page.

Many entrepreneurs leave the helm of their business once it hits the corporate big time. For every wily entrepreneur commanding a global behemoth there are thousands who handed over the reins before their businesses achieved its full potential. Most long-standing entrepreneurial businesses are run by seasoned executives with expertise in both management and finance.
There are a number of reasons why business owners decide to leave their rapidly expanding company in the hands of others. For starters, the skills required to lead big and small businesses are quite different. Entrepreneurs generally enjoy the cut and thrust of building a business up from scratch more than they relish patiently guiding it once it has become recognised, established and stable. As such, they might be lured out of the driving seat by investors, once they've enjoyed the process of seeing their business idea come to fruition. Others simply prefer not to grow their business past a certain point, instead enjoying the work and income they have generated for themselves and others. And lastly, the reality of entrepreneurial business means that many fail before they have a chance to grow.
For those entrepreneurs who are lucky, skilled, confident, single-minded and hungry enough to build a company of scale, an inevitable decision awaits: do you leave while the going is good, or do you knuckle down and learn how to control the business as it grows even bigger?
Adapt or retire
Andrew Baillie, Head of Management Development at performance consultancy Exemplas, says the "adaptability" of founders to the more measured pace of the corporate world is one of the fundamental challenges to growing a really big business. "It is possible for leaders to make the adjustment, but not all managers of small businesses have the flexibility, skills or even the inclination to make the necessary changes to the way they operate," he says. "Versatility is everything in this situation," he adds. "You need to be able to apply your skills and behaviours, and break out of what's familiar and comfortable, from operational and hands-on processes, to more strategy and delegation."
Baillie believes the same leadership qualities work in both small and large businesses. "Good leaders adapt their style to the circumstances," he says. Although the same values, characteristics and traits are useful, regardless of the size of business you manage, the need for certain skills are enhanced when a business grows. For example, big businesses are more complicated than small ones, so your ability to take on any task needs to take a back seat in favour of your ability to delegate efficiently and decisively.
Communication and organisation
For the same reason, your communication and organisational skills become more important. The more employees, clients and suppliers you involve in your business, the better you need to become at keeping them happy. "The management skills required in small and large companies are not exactly the same," says Simon Orme, Managing Director of Emros Partners, a consultancy practice formed of people and companies with extensive experience of business growth. "In a small company, the manager has to be more of a generalist and employ whichever processes seem most appropriate for the task in hand. Sooner or later, the most effective processes become adopted as company standards and roles become more specific."
Orme believes experience working for other companies can be valuable to entrepreneurs. "Managers who perform best in small companies have begun their careers in large ones where they have learned their skills and are then able to deploy them effectively in a smaller environment." According to Baillie, other qualities required by big business leaders include: "A clear and strong vision, drive and the humility to know that your success will depend on other people's capabilities. It's no longer just about you."
Don't lead from the front
Many entrepreneurs enjoy leading from the front, rattling off ideas on the fly. However this isn't generally a practical way of working in a corporate environment. With more people involved in the structure of the business as it grows, there will be more at stake from the repercussions of every decision. Ideas must be put to the board: this democratic process ensures that the right decisions are made for the future and security of the business, rather than snap decisions that an entrepreneur or sole trader can take a calculated punt on. A corporate approach means taking advice and working as part of the team.
"It's about listening and always taking people's advice on board," says James King, founder and Managing Director of venture capital firm Find Invest Grow. "Always ask questions and be ready to research grey areas. We are constantly learning from each other and our experiences, so our thinking is always evolving." He adds, "It also helps to recruit people who will add to your current knowledge as there is always more to learn. Having the right team to support your plans will allow you to effectively manage your business regardless of the challenges that arise."
Cavalier risk-taking, an 'I-can-do-everything' mentality, and a whopping great ego are not required by entrepreneurs hoping to make it big. Instead, focus on management, delegation and communication, and be prepared to take advice. If you adjust your mind-set for the big time, you should be able make a smooth transition from independent entrepreneur to corporate team member.

England and New Zealand were both scrambling for the high ground last night after a remarkable third day's play in Manchester left the second Test and the series in the balance. Set 294 to win after Monty Panesar had taken career-best figures of six for 37 to dismiss the New Zealanders for 114 in their second innings, England require a further 218 today with nine wickets in hand to complete a remarkable victory and take a 1-0 lead into next week's third and final Test at Trent Bridge.
England's only wicket to fall as they closed on 76 for one was that of Alastair Cook, caught at short leg off New Zealand's captain Daniel Vettori, and Panesar admitted that his fellow left-arm spinner, who earlier in the day completed first-innings figures of five for 66, would have a big say on a pitch already providing plenty of turn and bounce. He added: "If we play him well we can win this Test match."
The odds still favour New Zealand - no side has chased more than 231 to win an Old Trafford Test - but they seemed impossibly stacked against England while the tourists were building on a lead of 179 to reach 85 for two. But Panesar's spell of six for 17 in 85 balls, four of his wickets coming from leg-before decisions, transformed England's chances of victory from non-existent to distinctly possible. New Zealand, though, are determined not to blow their advantage. "We're not too fazed defending 294," said their seamer Iain O'Brien. "No team has scored that much to win a Test match here."

Crazy chick ... Mermaids ... Nasty pumpkin seeds ...
One dark and scary Thanksgiving night, this one crazy looking hick was carving a GLOWING pumpkin to turn it into a Jack-O-Lantern, but she didn't need any candles as you could imagine because the pumpkin was already GLOWING! She put it out on her front step and when kids walked by they would be all like "Woah, why is there a glowing Jack-O-Lantern when it's almost THANKSGIVING?!?!?!!!?!?!?!" They were puzzled. The next evening, she was making pumpkin seeds while singing "AAANYWAY YOU WANT IT! THAAATS THE WAY YA NEEED IT! AAANYWAY YA WANT ITT BOOM BOOM BA CHI!" She was singing quite loudly, so all the neighbors looked through her window and pointed and laughed. She had no idea what was going on, so she kept singing. She lost track of what she was doing, so she burnt the seeds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, they were CHARRED TO A CRISP! She pulled them out, thinking they would be just right, and realized what had happened. She shrieked in horror... The neighbors thought she was in trouble, so acting on instinct they called the fuzz. They showed up while she was in the shower singing that same song loudly,, so she couldn't hear them at the door... The fuzz ended up busting down the door and finding her in the shower!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They were all blind and deaf after that horrid chain of events that occurred that evening.

Nets-Heat Preview
Associated Press | Last updated November 06, 2012
The Miami Heat have good reason to believe they'll keep their momentum going into an upcoming two-week road swing. They have yet to lose a home game and their final one before that trip comes Wednesday night against a Brooklyn Nets team they've beaten 10 straight times. Two days after needing Ray Allen's late 4-point play for a narrow win over Denver, Miami's victory Monday wasn't nearly as dramatic. The Heat (3-1) topped 118 points for the third time in four games, beating Phoenix 124-99 to improve to 3-0 at home. The defending champions have won 15 of 17 home games including last season's playoff run, though they will head to the road for six straight games starting Friday in Atlanta. Their next home game after Wednesday will be a Nov. 21 matchup versus Milwaukee. Winning in Miami will be a tall order for the Nets (1-1) in their first regular-season road game since moving to Brooklyn. They've dropped six straight there since Feb. 1, 2008, and have lost 10 in a row overall in the series. LeBron James has won his last 14 games against the Nets. He's averaged 30.3 points in the past four, shooting 67.7 percent from the field. James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh are all averaging 20-plus points as the Heat have averaged a league-high 111.8. They scored 98.5 per game last season. The addition of Allen and his 15.5 points per game certainly help, as does the team's 46.0 percent 3-point shooting. James credits something else. "It starts with the point guard," said James, who is 6 for 11 from 3-point range. Mario Chalmers had 11 assists for the second time in four games Monday after previously reaching double digits three times in his career - none last season. He has committed just six turnovers and has a team-leading nine steals. Chalmers had three steals Monday as the Heat had their best defensive effort of the season. They held the Suns to 39.8 percent shooting and kept an opponent under 100 points for the first time. They also had a 49-38 advantage on the boards after being outrebounded twice in their first three games. "I'll take those two things," coach Erik Spoelstra said. Brooklyn's defense could be in for a struggle to stop Miami's Big Three after getting outscored 32-10 in the fourth quarter of a 107-96 home loss to Minnesota on Monday. The Nets led by as many as 22 in the second half. "We just relaxed defensively," coach Avery Johnson said. "We started trading baskets with them in the third quarter and never really could get stops." Brooklyn's rebounding (35.5 per game) and points allowed (103.5) both rank near the bottom of the league. Defeats like Monday's might have been expected at times in the Nets' injury-plagued 2011-12 campaign as they went 22-44, but with a new home and new expectations, this season is a different story. "Losses like this have to really sting more than they ever have in the past," said newcomer Joe Johnson, who had 19 points. "Losses like this can come back to bite you later on in the year." Among the bright spots for the Nets has been Brook Lopez, averaging 20.0 points after playing just five games last season due to injury. Free-agent acquisition C.J. Watson has provided a spark off the bench with 12.5 points in 25.5 minutes per game as the backup to Deron Williams, who has averaged 18.5 points and 11.0 assists. Williams was limited to 26 points over two matchups with Miami last season. Forward Gerald Wallace is questionable with a sprained ankle that forced him to sit out against Minnesota.

I step outside into the crowded street of New York. I put on my heart shaped sunglasses as I strut my way through the crowd.
"People are staring at you" my weave whispers in my ear.
"No," I reply back, "at us."
All is going well, but then i see what i'm about to have to endure. "Oh, no. Peasants, dirty filthy peasants!" I cry.
I maneuver my way through the peasants using my weave as a weapon. One gets within my perimeter so i whip my hair around to fling the peasant across the dirty street. Unfortunately for him a bus is coming as soon as he gets midway through the street and his body is split in half.
"sorry" i tell my weave in a weary voice , for the blood from the filthy peasant has been splattered on my weave.
"No biggy." she replies back, but i know deep down she is very sad.

Whispers on the Wind
Just a myth I heard...
Out on the prairie was where they loved. Like playful birds, they swooped and flew in and out of each other, with innocent joy shining in their eyes. Little did they know what was to come, and little did they want to know.
The sun shone down on them, blessing their love with its warmth, and they were happy. The world could be as small as that prairie but they wouldn't have minded, so long as they had each other.
It was there that they built their home: four stone walls to protect them from the cold winds that had started to blow. They sheltered together, nestled like animals in their little house.
They should have known better: stone may protect you from the elements, but not even the enveloping arms of your lover can protect you from the inevitability of time.
The world found them, and dragged him away to war - to another place where they could not be together. Left behind, she yearned for him day and night. It all seemed so empty; so meaningless without him: the house that they'd built was made for two.
Time passed and so did the lovers. Who knows what happened: maybe he returned, maybe he did not. Without her love, she turned into the rambling ruin that now stands in the middle of that prairie, and now there is no sign left of those two and their everlasting love. What once seemed so real is now but a myth, whispered in the unfurling wind.

Bruce Springsteen Pays Tribute To Prince With An Electric Cover Of 'Purple Rain'
The Purple One has been honoured across the world since his passing, and Bruce Springsteen has joined as well.
The Boss opened his Brooklyn show Saturday with a touching cover of Prince's iconic 1984 song, "Purple Rain"
The stage was bathed in purple light as Springsteen belted a solemn and powerful cover and the crowd sang along.
Before the music came to an end, guitarist Nils Lofgren stepped forward to deliver the track's potent guitar solo.
The song's legendary writer had been found dead in his home days before, at age 57.
To end the rendition, Springsteen faced the crowd and called out: "Prince, forever! God bless!"

Grace-energized, persevering hope is especially relevant to days in which we live. God wants hope-filled men and women walking through life side-by-side with hope-less worldlings, so that we can point those without hope to our hope in Christ.
In one of Christ's final messages, He tells us that the time period ahead of us called the end of days, is going to be so "hope-less"-that people actually will drop dead from heart failure as they see what is coming.
He then goes on to say that His children are to be different. Jesus wants you and me to be filled with hope.
Open with me to Jesus describing the End of Days in Luke 21; this is Christ's thumbnail or short version of the 22 chapters of the final book of the Bible called the book of the Revelation. There are fearful times coming to this planet. Listen to Jesus speak:
Luke 21:25-27 "And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; 26 "men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of heaven will be shaken. 27 "Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 "Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near."
Persevering Hope or
Panic Attacks
Jesus says that we are headed toward the end of days when people "expire". The word translated 'failing' (NKJV) is aposucho which means that a person's 'breath pops out' or 'expires' because of complete fear. We often see that in earthquakes, fires, and hurricanes that many deaths come among the elderly with heart attacks.
But the end of days will see the ultimate panic attack coming; and many healthy humans will just expire for fear. Jesus only briefly described those days in the ...

Our service management solution tracks all of your critical information in one place, so you can focus on what matters.
-Financing Available-
Simple, Proven, Reliable. Just ask a few of our 1300+ Customers.
We've been in the service management software business since 1982. In that time, we've helped hundreds of companies like yours succeed.
Customer Reviews
We love that Explorer Shafers is a completely integrated system. The fact everything is in a centralized location makes it easy for us to provide excellent service to our customers. The quick quotes module is big for us. All of our quotes are saved in a centralized place, so when customers are ready to execute, we can close the sale instantly. With Shafers, my techs don't waste time doing paperwork or restocking parts. They are always prepared with the right parts and information they need to get the job done.
We have been on the Shafers system for over 26 years it has grown with us over the years from our business of 25 employees to our 170 plus employees. We have added the modules that we have needed with our expansions and growth, it has allowed us to departmentalize as we have added plumbing and electrical to our company through the years and more recently as we have acquired other companies allowing us to show different divisions/departments profitability and costs to better evaluate their performance. The overall complete integration of the modules allows for a more cohesive operating system and we are very pleased to have chosen Shafers as our operating system.
My favorite aspect about Shafers is how prompt, friendly, and professional the support team is when I email work orders that need to be addressed. I have worked with Cesar, Debbie, Tracy, and a couple others, and I have found each team member to be very knowledge with your CMS. It is always such a pleasure working with someone from your team.

For insurance and fixed asset reasons, I need to put in a purchase price for my equipment.
I did an export in reports to excel, but is there a way to add the price information, then import it back in?

Take a look at steps 4-6

I tried that, but I am getting invalid columns.
I would think that if I exported from spiceworks, fixed one field and reimported, all other info should stay the same. using the serial number as a unique key.

In theory yes, but I haven't tested. I would shoot a pre import backup just in case. The other option would be to delete everything in SW and import it all from the updated export.

More than 130 working in retail grades at c2c, which operates services between London and Essex, will walk out on Monday.
The Rail Maritime and Transport union and the Transport Salaried Staffs Association said talks had failed to resolve the dispute.
The unions claimed c2c, owned by National Express, had a holiday policy that includes paying staff only for bank holidays they worked.
Bob Crow, general secretary of the RMT said: "We called off a strike two weeks ago to allow further talks, but despite hours of discussions there has been no satisfactory movement from the company and we have no alternative but to reinstate strike action.
"Our members are quite clear that they want an unequivocal commitment to 28 days' paid leave, and not ever more complex ways of avoiding it."
TSSA general secretary Gerry Doherty said: "It beggars belief that National Express is refusing bank holiday pay to our members after announcing profits of £194 million for last year.
"National Express pays bank holidays at its three other franchises, but not at c2c. It is unfair and they should admit that fact."

A splendid new square for Wausau
After many years of discussion, re-discussion, rancor, despair and hope, the City of Wausau finally completed its long-awaited city square project. While the first concert was actually held last week, the weather was not favorable and so tonight ended up being the first large-scale event on the new and improved 400 Block in downtown Wausau. It didn't disappoint. Big thanks go to all who made it possible.

A peaceful night in the river
... good service, very nice man, looks like a nice marina in case anyone is in the area! Troy Federal Lock was the only one without hanging ropes, we had to loop our lines around a pipe instead. After the last lock we hit tidal waters.... time to pay attention and plan our runs accordingly from now on. It was interesting to pass through the bigger cities of Troy and Albany, and for me it was fun to see Albany from a completely different point of view! After Albany's shipping yards ...

So how could we not go!

Mechanicville stop

Mechanicville is a convenient stop- you don't even really leave the channel you just push off a bit to the side and onto the wall. There is a lot of wake from passing boats but luckily for us there has not been much traffic at all and the locks close at 6 pm anyway. There looks to be an Italian restaurant or two ...

Ernst sets pace in LPGA season-ender, Ko lurks three back
(Reuters) - American Austin Ernst seized a one-shot lead after the opening round of the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship in Naples, Florida on Thursday while Lydia Ko strengthened her grip in the race for 2015 LPGA Tour honors.
Ernst, in pursuit of her second victory on the LPGA circuit, birdied her last two holes to break clear of a congested leaderboard as she fired a six-under-par 66 in the $2 million event at Tiburon Golf Club.
That left the diminutive 23-year-old Ernst a stroke in front of South Korea's Lee Mi-hyang, with twice major winner Cristie Kerr lurking among a group of six who opened with 68s.
Level with LPGA veteran Kerr were her fellow Americans Brittany Lincicome, Jennifer Song, Gerina Piller and Jaye Marie Green, and South Korean Kim Sei-young.
Lurking three strokes back was world number one Ko, after the New Zealander birdied three of her last seven holes to move into contention for her sixth LPGA victory of the season.
Ernst, who won her first LPGA title in a playoff for last year's Portland Classic, finished in style with a birdies at the par-five 17th and par-four last, where she nearly holed out with a five-wood approach from 192 yards.
"It almost went in," a smiling Ernst told reporters after hitting 17 of 18 greens in regulation. "The crowd got pretty wild like it rolled right over the edge. "So that was nice ... to have a little tap-in birdie."
Ko, back in action this week after taking a fortnight's break, is in pole position to clinch the LPGA Player of the Year award, the money list title and retain her number one ranking, and was in good position for all three after opening with a 69.
However, South Korea's Park In-bee, a winner of two major championships this season, is in close pursuit and she launched her bid for further LPGA honors by carding 71. Continued...

The international fashion consumer increasingly seeks the tangible and intangible benefits of a wide variety of local and international fashion brands. Fashion brands and their associated marketing communications have now reached revered status throughout the global economy. The design, development, marketing and retailing (DDMR) of fashion brands have now become an increasingly important and integrated part of many fashion businesses. You will investigate and examine all aspects of international fashion brand marketing and look at its significant modern growth from both a European and global perspective. This will enable you to acquire a sound theoretical and practical understanding of strategic fashion brand development and management.
In a highly competitive global fashion marketplace, entrepreneurs generate new business models and seek disruptive ways to offer value through products and services in the fashion industry. Small and medium sized enterprises are the catalysts for economic growth and employment and require managers who are skilled at understanding market and business trends, handling uncertainty, measuring progress and building sustainable businesses through continuous innovation. This unit explores theories of business modelling, innovation and opportunity analysis and examines their application to fashion start-ups, SMEs and established companies. The skills of critical thinking, analytical evaluation and real-time decision-making will be explored and applied where possible through live projects with fashion companies to enhance the development of your entrepreneurial mindset through experiential learning.
The purpose of this unit is to introduce you to the range of research methods, approaches and tools that are available to you in order to conduct your post graduate project. The unit will cover philosophy and ethics in research, primary and secondary research methods, including quantitative, qualitative and visual research methods, and how to analyse, evaluate and disseminate research findings. The unit will consider research in a range of contexts relevant to the cultural and creative industries and enable you to understand the relationship between theory and practice.
The management of a fashion enterprise requires knowledge of business and project management, competencies in digital communication and online platforms as well as leadership and collaborative team working skills. The ability to define, create and run a successful enterprise in fashion is linked to the effective management of creativity and continuous innovation and the development of a proactive organisational environment. This unit investigates the capabilities, conditions and resources that sustain entrepreneurial strategies and harvests creative and innovative solutions in fashion companies. You will begin to build knowledge and understanding of the diverse creative and sustainable enterprise business models, and identify the organisational and funding models for enterprise creation that are particular to the sector.
This unit encourages you to explore the commercial parameters, techniques and tools of business development and entrepreneurial strategic planning in theory and in practice. You will be able to acquire a focused understanding of an innovation within a particular fashion industry context and explore the concept of feasibility including forecasting, financial planning and resource management as tactics that support the implementation of an entrepreneurial strategy in fashion. You will begin to build a sound theoretical and practical understanding of benchmarking for business development and the techniques of planning for the survival and growth of new and existing businesses.
This unit is designed to enable you to innovate, engage in developmental processes and participate in collaborative working practices. You will be encouraged to develop the professional negotiating and networking skills that you will need in order to be successful in the cultural and creative industries.
The nature of this collaboration may be within your own course, with students on other courses or with industry. The project that you undertake will depend upon your discipline and the specific requirements of your course. Further details will be available in your unit handbook.
The Masters Project is an important piece of work central to achieving the course aims, which will provide an opportunity for you to demonstrate your knowledge and skills in relation to the course learning outcomes. Throughout the Masters Project, you are guided and supported by tutorials and peer and staff evaluation at interim stages. You will be allocated a supervisor for your project and will complete a learning contract outlining how you intend to develop and deliver your project. The Masters Project may take a variety of forms by negotiation and is assessed by presentation in an agreed format.
