**SOTW Competition Update**
Hello Guys and Gals,
I would like to inform you guys that as of now the SOTW has been dismantled, but will be making its return in the new year..
We also have a couple of new additions for you guys so we hope you all enjoy and are excited to see whats in store for the NEW SOTW..
Thank You
NikosCC & MJB23
cant wait
It's some great ideas me and Nikos have come up with, i'm sure you guys will love it.
sounds awesome
I think its a conspiracy to keep me from ever gaining a victory, The truth is intimidation by me is the reason MJB doesnt sleep at night, havent you guys ever noticed he is always here? its not a coincidence.
Good stuff guys. I can't wait to see the new goods.

Producer Salaam Remi's Orchestral R&B
Salaam Remi is best known for his work with Grammy-winning R&B singer Amy Winehouse; he co-produced her hit album Back To Black, along with DJ Mark Ronson, and he was working on her third album at the time of her death in 2011. He's also worked with artists like the rapper Nas, breakout R&B singer Miguel and the Fugees.
But this week, Remi released his debut solo album, One: In The Chamber, a collection of lushly orchestrated R&B tracks with vocals provided by some of his former collaborators like Corinne Bailey Rae and Akon.
Remi tells Soundcheck host John Schaefer why he decided to step out of the studio and into the spotlight.
This segment originally aired on Oct. 4, 2013.

There is a certain level of skill to creating an IPv6-capable network. There is even more skill to creating an IPv6-capable network correctly. To help confirm an IPv6-capable network has been configured correctly and that "upstream" IPv6 connectivity is correct, there are several Web sites which offer basic insights into the quality of IPv6 connectivity.
Such sites have been around in one form or another since at least 2000. The most famous early "test" Web site was perhaps "www.kame.net" – if the turtle ("kame" in Japanese) moved, the site was being reached via IPv6. The openly available "ipv6calc" software included a CGI that allowed one to confirm not only what IP version one was reaching the Web site with, but also information about the address.
To verify basic IPv6 functionality, a good starting point is the Web site "http://test-ipv6.com". This Web site provides an IPv6 readiness score from 0 to 10 and measures both client and network IPv6 readiness. In addition to testing for basic IPv6 capabilities, it reports on a sampling of IPv6-enabled destinations that can be reached, as well as IPv6 DNS and large packet support. The site is based on open-source software and source code can be found at https://github.com/falling-sky/source/wiki. There are also numerous mirrors around the world.
Another IPv6 test Web site is http://ipv6-test.com, not to be confused with http://test-ipv6.com mentioned above. This site offers Path MTU tests. http://ipv6-test.com is a bit less specific than http://test-ipv6.com/ about exactly which tests it performs and http://ipv6-test.com does not appear to provide source code or mirrors, as far as I can tell.
A site which offers more comprehensive testing of both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity is the ICSI "Netalyzer." This site was funded via a grant from the National Science Foundation and operated by the International Computer Science Institute at University of California -Berkeley. It performs a variety of IPv4 and IPv6 tests, including checks for open network ports, fragmentation functionality, path MTU discovery, general DNS functionality and DNSSec. Netalyzer information is accessible via a Web browser or by running a Java application on the command line. On initial inspection and after an unsuccessful attempt to reach the creators of the site, it appears source code is not available.
Certainly, these Web sites only provide a small amount of data in the quest to fully understand the network that one is connected to and there are other diagnostic tools one should seek to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of characteristics, connectivity and performance of a network. However, these tools provide an excellent overview of basic IPv6 connectivity and network capabilities.
According to Jason Fesler, developer and maintainer of the test-ipv6.com Web site and the source code, the goal of test-ipv6 was not only to provide basic IP address information, but to help visitors identify certain failure conditions. Said Fesler, "Having no IPv6 is one thing; but having misconfigured IPv6 is a very different problem with very negative user experience issues. Today, the browsers mostly work around those user experience issues; which create a different headache for system administrators — hiding the problems."

Minutes before he shot himself in the head on Saturday, deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Sanjay Banerjee had told his elder son, Arjun, 14, that he did not want to live any longer. The 43-year-old DCP with the Maharashtra ATS committed suicide at Goa Portuguesa restaurant in Thane, while his wife and two sons looked on.
Banerjee also told Arjun that he had taken all possible steps to safeguard their future. While Arjun asked his father why he was saying so, the DCP pulled out his service revolver and shot himself on the right temple.
Thane police chief KP Raghuvanshi said on Monday that Banerjee was depressed and that led him to commit suicide. The reasons behind him going into dep-ression are yet to be ascertained. The police have so far recorded statements of the DCP's father Anil and wife Sushmita.

Pivot Les 27.5 Carbon Mountain Bike Frame 2016
You won't find an X Large Les 27. 5 Carbon Mountain Bike Frame for the same reason you won't find an X Small Les 29 Carbon. Pivot smartly packages smaller wheels with smaller frames and larger wheels with larger frames. A concept that, oddly, seems to escape other manufacturers. And when proportionally correct frames and wheels are matched up to Pivot's extensive composites program, you can be sure the LES boasts a smooth ride and responsive handling. Add to the picture a 12x142mm thru axle, tapered head tube, and BB92 bottom bracket shell, and it's clear Pivot hasn't cut any corners. However, the most significant example of this is the hardest to see the fully compacted carbon fiber that's used in the frame. By optimizing the compaction, Pivot removes any unnecessary resin, which minimizes weight and optimizes strength. The tube forming is of particular importance as well, because it dictates the ride quality of the frame. Accordingly, areas like the chainstays and down tube, where stiffness is paramount, have been built as large as possible to fight deflection. On the other hand, the seatstays have been flattened and feature a slight bow, which allows them to bend under load, smoothing out the ride. This ensures the Les 27. 5 rides beautifully over rough terrain, while remaining stiff when you get on the pedals. The Pivot LES 27. 5 Carbon Mountain Bike Frame also features details like custom molded, impact resistant stays and a down tube guard. It's available in four sizes from X Small to Large and in the colors Green, Matte Blackredwhite, and Matte Blackblue.

The disgraced sprinter, 30, failed to win an injunction to suspend temporarily his lifetime ban from the Games for using performance-enhancing drugs.
The decision was instantly hailed as a victory in the campaign to keep top-level athletics free of drugs.
Pursued by crowds of journalists and photographers as he left the court, Chambers refused to say whether he was going to retire. But he revealed he would not be appealing against the judge's decision.
The athlete, one of Britain's top sprinters and a World Championships silver medallist, was banned by the British Olympic Association from participating in all future Olympics after testing positive for designer steroid tetrahydrogestrinone in 2003.
Having served a two-year suspension, Chambers argued that the lifetime ban was an unfair restraint on trade. But after listening to his case, Mr Justice Mackay refused to grant an injunction suspending the bylaw before the full hearing next March. He said: "Many people both inside and outside sport would see this bylaw as unlawful. It would take a much better case than the claimant has presented to persuade me to overturn the status quo at this stage and compel his selection for the Games."
British selectors will name the final squad for the Beijing Games by Sunday. The International Olympic Committee welcomed the judge's decision.
Communications director Giselle Davies said: "We believe in a zero-tolerance approach to athletes who take banned drugs."
During the hearing yesterday, the judge told Jonathan Crystal, representing Chambers: "The reality is that you are saying 'put him on the plane'." Mr Crystal, an expert in sports law, had told the judge that banning Chambers could deprive Britain of its best chance of winning a medal in the 100 metres.
He said the BOA bylaw was unfair, contrary to competition law and an unreasonable restraint on trade.
"He represents our best chance of a podium finish in the 100 metres in Beijing," Mr Crystal said.
Chambers had already qualified for the Olympics team after winning the 100 metres at trials in Birmingham last Saturday and setting his best time of the year.
David Pannick QC, representing the BOA, had told the judge that Chambers "cannot show that sportsmen and women are significantly restrained in their trade by the bylaw, which only concerns eligibility for an amateur event, which takes place once every four years and for which there is no prize money".
He added: "If the court were to make an order requiring the claimant to be selected, that would deprive another athlete of his place in the team, even though the legality of the rule may be upheld at a full trial."
Mr Pannick argued that Chambers, as a self-confessed drugs cheat, was not a good example for Britain's next sports generation and the court should not force the BOA to pick him.
BOA chairman Lord Moynihan welcomed the ruling. Speaking outside court, he said the association would continue to send a "powerful and important message" to athletes that drugs cheats would not have the honour of representing Britain.
On returning from his two-year ban, Chambers won gold in the 4x100m relay at the 2006 European championships. His team-mate Darren Campbell refused to celebrate after being stripped of the 2003 world gold medal after Chambers's drug disgrace.

Case Conclusion Date: 02.06.2009
Practice Area: Slip and fall accident
Outcome: Settlement for $750,000.00
Description: Judy tripped over a vacuum cleaner in her sisters home when the family dog lunged at her baring its teeth in an aggressive manner. She suffered a distal radial fracture of her dominant wrist, which over 4-6 weeks developed into RSD/CRPS I. (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy n/k/a Comprehensive Regional Pain Syndrome. The defendants carrier Cypress Casualty, Tampa, FL, covered the Defendant Chiossi's home with a $300,000.00 policy with a $25,000.00 dog attack limitation. plaintiff through counsel took the position that a failure to pay the $25,000 limit within 30 days of demand was bad faith. When Cypress, through its outside adjustment company Crawford and Co., offered the 25k limits after 72 days, we rejected the offer filed suit and prepared for trial. At mediation 1 month before trial Cypress acknowledging the problems in failing to timley tender, paid $750,000.00 to settle this and any future Bad Faith action. Had Cypress delivered a check for $25,000 WITHIN 30 DAYS OF OUR INITIAL DEMAND THEIR EXPOSURE WOULD HAVE BEEN LIMITED TO THAT AMOUNT AND WOULD HAVE SAVED $725,000.00

Screaming, I flung myself forward, recalling on my nightmare, I looked around and saw I was in a house I don't recall as my own, sitting in the chair next to the bed I appeared to have been sleeping in, was the boy, he had a wounded arm but was bandaged up – rather badly – he woke up to see me staring at him with an odd expression on my face, he laughed at me quietly at my blushing face and stood, he sat next to me on the bed and removed some stray hair back from my face an tucked it behind my ear, looking into his eyes my own filled with tears that threatened to fall, when they finally did I flung my arms around his neck and help him close.
"T-Thank god you alive…" I stuttered, barely above a whisper
"Of course I am" he replied softly, wrapping his arms around my waist
"I-In my dream, that thing K-Killed you..." I tried to explain, but I just kept crying
"Shh…its okay, I'll never leave you" he said, kissing my forehead
This was the first time we had ever actually talked properly, this moment felt like magic like magic, I felt save, like I belonged in his warm embrace.
We lay back down onto the bed, still in each others arms and slowly drifting asleep peacefully, his warm breath caressing my face, lulling me to sleep.
I had woken up in and empty bed, I looked around to see the boy walking into the room, holding a tray of food, eggs and bacon by the smell of things.
"Hey, you're up" he smiled warmly
"Yeah" I smiled back
"Had a good rest?" he asked, setting the tray on the bed side table
"Yeah, Thanks"
"By the way…" he started, rubbing the back of his neck "W-What's your name?"
"Oh, sorry, it's Amberlyee" I blushed
"Amberlyee… a beautiful name, mines Hayden" he said, smiling gently holding out his hand
"Hayden…" I repeated, taking his hand
Expecting to shake his, I was surprised he entwined his fingers with mine and pulled me to my feet.
"I got some clothes for you" he said, pulling me over to the wardrobe
He pulled out a pair of light blue jeans and a white t-shirt, handing them to me he let go of my hand and left the room. Once he was gone began to change, strangely enough the clothes fitted perfectly, then I realised that they were mine, checking in the mirror that I looked okay I sighed, then heard a tap behind me.
"Nice" he smiled "I made you breakfast, it's on the table" he pointed
"Thank you" I replied and walked over to the plate
I sat on the chair and began to eat, Hayden walked over and sat on the bed, legs crossed with his arms in his lap he sat there watching me eat. Of course my reaction was to blush and to turn away; I've always hated people watching me eat, but there he was.
Once I was done he took my plate and left the room, I muttered a polite thank you and followed him into the kitchen, it was a good size, lots of room for cooking but I didn't see many plates in the cupboards.
"Who do you live with?" I blurted out, without really thinking
"No one, just me" he replied
"Sorry" I muttered guiltily
"Its okay, my parents died in an accident, I moved here not long ago"
He said it like it didn't bother him but by his eyes I knew the conversation saddened him, so I tried to change the subject.
"H-How come I dreamt of you, before I even knew you?"
I asked, sub-consciously this question had been burning at the back of my head, just waiting for an answer
"Well," he started thoughtfully "I'm not like most people, as you already know"
"Oh! Of course, I forgot, sorry" I interrupted
"So I see" he chuckled "Anyway, when we…feel the presence of our...partner, or true love, our enemies will want to get hold of them and destroy them, they do it by dream." He explained slowly and I just about managed to follow.
"We Angels can enter dreams of others, and so can the demons. Unfortunately if your hurt in the dream world, it transfers into reality, we angels do what we can to protect out partner and others from the demons" he finished
"S-so…does that mean I'm…?" I questioned
"Yeah…" he mumbled, rubbing the back of his neck again.
He turned towards me with the cutest look on his face I felt my knees weaken slightly, the turquoise eyes looking into my green ones warily, uncertain. He walked over to me and entwined our fingers together shyly.
"Amberlyee…W-Would you be mine?" he stuttered, looking down to his feet and back into my eyes again
"…Y-Yes…" I smiled
Wrapping my arms around his neck and his around my waist I finally understood everything, this was my destiny, and I wouldn't change it for the world.
I stumbled back as I heard a window smash from another room, I turned towards Hayden to see his wings explode from his back and he flew down to wherever the noise came from. I stood there and felt glued to the floor, I could hear shouting from down the hall I was desperate to know what was going on.
"I will never let you get hold of her" I heard Hayden growl
"And whys that?" said another calm, deep voice I didn't recognize
"You have no business with her!" Hayden's voice began to rise
"Oh, but I think I do, out of my way boy" said the husky voice
I heard a blade being drawn and a threatening growl from Hayden, but the other man just laughed.
"Pitiful, I should kill her slowly and make you watch her die!" he mused, I could tell Hayden was glaring at him
"NEVER!" He shouted
The first collision of blades I heard snapped me out of my trance, I pelted towards the door and found the owner of the horrific voice-
And there he stood-
The demon-
The demon who tried to kill me-
And is now trying to kill Haydon.
I couldn't explain what happened next, it was too disturbing, but I'm still alive, and so is Hayden.
He's now got his arms around me and we are soaring through the air, the only thing is, were running from more demons…

Francis has exhibited extensively throughout the southern United States since the 1980s, including several major exhibitions with the Bill Lowe Gallery. His work is included in the permanent collections of museums nationwide, including the J. Paul Getty Foundation in Los Angeles, the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco, the High Museum in Atlanta, and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.
Master printmaker, painter and sculptor Ke Francis evokes the tragic effects of disaster, while simultaneously celebrating the resiliency of the human spirit, all within imagery which bears the artist's marks of their creation. Imagery of tragedy and cataclysms such as tornadoes, animal traps, and wounded -soldiers- are juxtaposed with ancient symbols of victory (the goddess Nike) and icons of harmony (tuning forks) in order to express the interdependency of and delicate balance between pleasure and pain, rejoicing and mourning; and all acting as a stage for individual human will and determination.
"Collectively, Francis' work can be seen as an attempt to represent that psychic landscape that is the mental space of the human mind; it is an attempt to show that while it is littered with trauma and pleasure, despair and hope, through the creative will anything is possible."

Starring: Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams, Catherine Keener, Bradley Whitford, Caleb Landry Jones, Lil Rel Howery, Keith Stanfield
Horror written and directed by Jordan Peele, which follows Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Allison Williams), who have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating so Rose invites Chris for a weekend to meet her upper class parents, Missy (Catherine Keener) and Dean (Bradley Whitford).
Once there, Chris is unable to relax and is uncomfortable around Rose's parents, which causes him to refuse an offer of hypnosis from Missy. He learns from a friend of his that Missy and Dean's suburb has a sinister history of young black men disappearing. Increasingly unnerved, Chris is relieved to see another young black man, Andre (Keith Stanfield), at a garden party and approaches him, only for the other man to start shouting that he should "get out". Chris finds that trying to follow Andre's advice is easier said than done.REVIEWS

"these bennies - in the fizzy drinks," says jim
From annahowe
o god ...
From ClarissaH
"jim," i say. "these drinks have small levels of benzene in them. not bennies. benzene is a potentially cancer-causing chemical, not some groovy drug."
"wot?" they say
"benzene. minor-health-scare kind of chemical," i say.
"o god i feel ill," says jim suddenly. runs off to loo.
From annahowe

BBailey Mary Davis Fully Ruched Dress
Par Garnet
de Montreal, Quebec
Thie dress ia A M A Z I N G. The quality, style fabric is well worth the price, - especially if purchased on clearance. Although it is heavy..so much that I had to weight it..it was 2.2 lbs. but when put on, -- you don't feel it at all..just the gorgeous material and complimentery design. If too long it can be shortened easily or just 'rushed' up hiding many faults, - especially if it is a multi colored fabric. Will keep my eyes open for a BLACK one with this fabric/rushing. Don't miss out. It is worth the price as I believe I will have it for many years and it is deginately a WOW!! WOW!! DRESS no matter what your figure faults are. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
En résumé
Oui, je recommanderais ceci à un ami
Par HELEN
de EDMONTON

Mary Davis Dress - Wow!
Par EILEEN
de SCARBOROUGH
This dress is georgeous on. I was surprised by the weight when I took the dress out of the box, but when wearing the dress, it does not feel heavy at all. I love the shawl as it provides different looks to the dress.
Par verna
de sydney, n.s.
This is the best dress I have ever purchased. It is luxurious.It is exquisite. The quality is outstanding. The rouching is very forgiving if you have figure flaws. You will feel so special in this dress.
Par Elizabeth
de Toronto
The fabric is lush, the design spectacular and it's a heavy dress that is perfect for cooler weather. I love it!
Va Va Voom!
Par Lila
de Coquitlam
I just received this dress today in the red and the black. Wow, this dress looks beautiful on. The neckline is very flattering, it really shows off the decolette. It gives you an hourglass figure and that ruching hides any figure flaws. I am so glad I bought this dress in both colors. To the ladies that are height challenged like myself, I was not sure if the length of the dress would be too long, but when I tried it on, because of all the ruching you don't need to pull the dress down to its full length, you can't tell if it is a little bunched up because of all the ruching. This just creates more ruching. The dress falls about 2 1/2 inches below my knees. I am 5' tall. If you look on the website at the picture of the model wearing this dress, the length of the dress on her also looks like the length of dress on myself at 5' tall. So length is not an issue. Thank you Brian again, for another beautiful piece.
Par Patricia
I love this dress and was disappointed that I had to return it. I found it to be very heavy. The ruching usually hides by tummy flaw, but this dress did not unfortunately. I had ordered it in size XL. I reordered it in XXL and while the ruching did hide my tummy, it was too big in other areas. The dress was even longer and much, much too heavy. I really wish you dress designers would STOP MAKING THE DRESSES LONGER AS THE SIZE GOES UP; it is not necessary. Brian, please, oooh please, bring in size 18. I find when I order size XL or 16, it is a little snug and when I order the next size up which is XXL, it is too large. For those designers that do have size 18, the fit is perfect. The XXL is always larger in the arm holes whereas size 18 is not. The dress looks great on the models because they are tall, however, I'm 5'2" and because it looks so long, it did not look good. It looked much better when I pulled it up, but,unfortunately, I don't think this dress could be altered and if it could I'm sure you would have to pay extra because of the ruching. Brian, PLEASE bring this dress back in a less heavier weight and shorter. I would recommend this dress for taller ladies.
Lovely Dress - too heavy for me.
Par Sun2Tan
de Calgary, AB
I ordered this dress in red and is very nice, ruching is in all the right places, but for me I found it extremely heavy. I had ordered for a wedding in Mexico, but am afraid would be too hot.

Charolais bull sells for over £100,000
NewsThursday 18 April 2013
A farmer from Kent has recently sold the most expensive Charolais bull in the world after a private American firm paid £105,000 for Vexour Garth.
Ray Firminger, the farmer who raised Garth, has hit the big time after his 1,000-kilo bull was sold at auction last autumn.
Speaking to the BBC, Mr Firminger said: "Economics is at the back of it, there's no denying it.
"They haven't bought him just for his looks. They bought him for his resale price, if you like to think of him as a commodity. His resale value is very high."
In recent years, at auction houses around the globe, investors have been showing an ever increasing appetite for buying pedigree cattle and sheep at premium prices. And because of this a number of world records have been tumbling.
Last year a Texel ram was sold for £231,000 and a lamb was sold for £9,000 which equalled the breed record.
But why are people prepared to pay such large figures for these animals?
Well, the investors are hanging all of their hopes on these animals being top quality sires, which would produce large cows and sheep with high quality meat that is very lean or even large yields of milk.
Philip Halhead, the chairman of the British Cattle Breeders Club, spoke to the BBC about the sale of Garth saying: "I imagine the American investors who bought Vexour Garth are looking to sell his straws of semen for between £50 and £100 per straw.
"To put that in context, every 10 days to a fortnight in the bull-stud Garth should produce 500-1000 straws of saleable product. So do the maths.
"It's not always that every bull produces high quality semen. That's still the gamble they've got to play with. But if it pays off, they will see a massive return on their investment."
