Quotestrikkly Oh I get it I looked for tickets through a bands in town update. I need to go back to analog. Haha! Bandsintown is definitely a mixed bag.

Lineup finally getting announced tonight:by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
The venue is charging $27.50 but a quick glance shows that some scalpers are charging as much as $190! Such sites often pay Google to get high results or buy up misleading URLs with the venue name so folks looking for tickets might mistakenly click on them.

It looks like I might be lucky enough to get to Rebel Salute for 2017. The lineup is being announced Monday (short notice) but these acts have been mentioned on social media and at press conferences: Third World, Leroy Gibbons, Wayne Wonder, Derrick Morgan, Bernard Collins from the Abyssinians, Johnny Osborne, Anthony B, Ed Robinson, Junior Kelly, Half Pint, Bushman, Ras Shiloh, Shevaun, Agby Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
To my surprise the show in Boston last night found the group using tracks. Peetah and Gramps sang while Mojo selected the tracks. The other two weren't present. I guess that's what a "promotional tour" means, but it's hard to imagine they'll be using that format and doing such a short show at BB King' in NYC.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
Not much to add to the above two reviews, other than that the Boston show was equally stellar and we got to enjoy a walk-on cameo from Tosh1 (his youngest son) on "Legalize It.". If anyone knows the other Solomonic musicians besides Dwight P on guitar I'd be interested in hearing who they were. The three-piece horn section were fairly young and quite good.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
It appears that the Monday lineup has been moved to the Observatory. The festival FB page has a lot of puzzled inquiries and a comment from the promoter that ticket sales have been slow.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
Some big -- and not so big but still crucial -- names have been added. I think it's an incredibly well-rounded lineup featuring many artists almost never seen in either JA or the USA. I'm quite sorry I can't attend this year.

Hopefully I'm just missing the context of the question, but...isn't reggae the music of the ghetto? If I only went to reggae events in affluent neighborhoods I would have missed out on a lot of memorable shows and dances! Quotewestafari Camping is sold out?

Hi friends Here's my review of Rototom: Despite the badly handled situation with Matisyahu, and a lineup that might not be as ambitious as that of, say, SNWMF, I still came away quite impressed with how it offers a 24-hour immersion into deep reggae culture.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017

LA show was solid too. Good hour-long set by Vernon covering all eras of his career. (Despite the billing Gladstone was not in the house so harmony vocals were solidly provided by the backing band Kingston A-Go-Go.)by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017

Hi folks Here's a review I wrote of a recent old-time dancehall session with Tiger and friends. Please note that this is a review for a mainstream publication so it provides a lot of context that most of you will find obvious, but given how rarely Tiger performs I thought my account of the night might be of interest.

Hey Ackee I skipped the Revere show in favor of seeing Tarrus the next night with Sanchez and Christopher Martin. I heard the Revere show was cut short due to the usual inability of boston promoters to get the headliner on stage in a timely manner. I'm told his two RI shows were excellent.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
Everyone is entitled to listen to whatever they enjoy. But as far as Chronixx vs. Rebelution goes, I only heard one of those artists blaring from every route taxi in JA when I was there in Jan He was incredibly humble and engaging when he performed with Ernest Ranglin and Monty Alexander a few weeks back.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
Some folks have questioned whether Chronixx will have a long career or flame out. I have no crystal ball but Tarrus is a great example of an artist who came out of the gate with a lot of hype and has kept it up. BTW I interviewed him a few weeks back:by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
One of the many highlights of Rebel Salute was getting to see Mutabaraka MC. Besides being sharp he's *funny*. As far as US MCs go I've never seen one that can compare to Jr. Francis. I have friends in LA who will go to his vintage ska promotions with very little knowledge of the artists but they know Jr will be entertaining and enthusiastic.by Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
My pals here on the East Coast were knocked-out when I told them I'd seen artists like John Holt, Horace Andy and Leroy Sibbles backed by a full horn section at Rebel Salute. In these parts they usually have to contend with what a friend calls "those four-piece disaster" bands -- or no band at all, in the case of a certain NY promoter who has recently brought in the likes of Pat Kelly aby Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017
Something else worth keeping is that a US self-contained band like Groundation is very likely a "collective" in which all or most of the members share equally in the risk and reward of touring and recording. If you see a large band playing the US indie music circuit the members are likely making a lot of sacrifices in how they tour (sleeping on friends' couches or at least tripling up iby Noah - SNWMF Phorum 2017

Who's Winning After Two Years Of Nationwide Local Number Portability?
LITTLE ROCK, AR — Unsatisfied consumers who plan to switch wireless carriers in the next three months said Verizon Wireless would be their top carrier of choice, according to a recent survey. Verizon Wireless, the first carrier to call for easy, barrier-free porting for customers, remains the industry leader in customer retention, based on published, "churn," customer retention, statistics.
When the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) mandate for Local Number Portability went into effect nationwide nearly two years ago, millions of consumers changed wireless carriers taking their phone number with them. They are still switching.
"Consumers like being able to switch wireless carriers and keep their same number," said Luis Cruz, region president for Verizon Wireless. "Verizon Wireless is committed to quick and easy number porting and leading in customer loyalty to deliver the best wireless experience to its customers. Our commitment to having the best network is why customers are continuing to choose to stay with Verizon Wireless at industry-record levels."
The company is investing up to $200 million in its Arkansas network in 2005 and 2006 to build 175 cell sites in central Arkansas. Over the last six years, $30 billion has been invested nationwide $5 billion on average every year since the company was formed to increase the coverage and capacity of its national network and to add new services.

Consumers can learn more about local number portability and products and services from Verizon Wireless online at www.verizonwireless.com, by calling a Verizon Wireless Customer Representative at 1-800-2 JOIN IN or by visiting a Verizon Wireless Communications Store.
Editor's Note: LNP went into effect November 2003 for major metropolitan areas; in May 2004, the rest of the nation followed.
Porting Tips: 1. Switch before disconnecting your current wireless service 2. Have your existing wireless contract or bill with you 3. Make the request yourself. To protect your privacy, only the account holder can request a port

Former No. 3 CIA official indicted
Prosecutors say bribes received for contracts
By Matt Kelley
Federal prosecutors have indicted the former No. 3 official at the CIA, accusing him of conspiring to steer lucrative contracts to companies run by a longtime friend who is accused of bribing a congressman.
Kyle "Dusty" Foggo is indicted in a corruption probe that sent former Republican congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham to federal prison. Foggo's indictment Tuesday by a federal grand jury in San Diego says Foggo took luxury vacations, expensive meals and other perks from his friend, Brent Wilkes.
Wilkes, the head of a web of San Diego-based government contracting firms, is accused of bribing Foggo to get contracts, including one to supply bottled water to CIA operatives. Wilkes is charged in a separate indictment of bribing Cunningham with more than $700,000 in cash, travel, meals and prostitute services.
Cunningham is serving an eight-year prison term after pleading guilty in 2005 to taking more than $2.4 million from Wilkes and businessman Mitchell Wade in exchange for steering Pentagon and intelligence contracts to their companies. Wade has pleaded guilty and remains free while cooperating in the ongoing investigation.
Wilkes' lawyer, Mark Geragos, said all the charges were "demonstrably false" but refused to give specifics. Geragos said Wilkes plans to plead not guilty in a court appearance today.
Foggo's lawyer, Mark MacDougall, did not return messages left Tuesday evening.
Foggo and Wilkes, both 52, met in high school in the San Diego suburbs. From 2001 to 2004, Foggo was based in Germany and oversaw CIA support operations in areas that included Iraq. He was promoted to executive director of the CIA in November 2004 under then-director Porter Goss. He resigned last May amid news reports about the federal investigation.
The indictment says Foggo steered contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to Wilkes' companies. Wilkes took Foggo to Scotland and Hawaii, paid for dinners costing as much as $1,100 and gave him a $2,300 cigar humidor, the indictment says.
The other indictment details the perks Cunningham allegedly received for help in steering contracts to another Wilkes company, ADCS Inc. Those perks included a Hawaii vacation during which Wilkes used company money to pay for prostitutes for himself and Cunningham.

|Strength & Conditioning Coach
|936 294-4428
Trevor Williams came to Sam Houston strength and conditioning in August, 2015 after two stints at the University of Delaware.
He rejoined his alma mater in June 2012 as assistant strength and conditioning coach after spending more than a year with Georgetown University.
Williams provides the Bearkat student-athletes with a sound program that includes strength, power and explosiveness, plyometrics, speed, agility, work capacity and coaching.
While at Georgetown, he was responsible for writing and implementing strength and conditioning programs for several varsity athletic squads. Williams worked mostly with the Hoya baseball team, specifically working with the pitchers and freshmen developmental program.
In conjunction with his duties at Georgetown, Williams assumed the role of head strength and conditioning coach at The Potomac School. While there, he was in charge of 20 varsity sports, as well as their respective junior varsity programs. Williams cites his greatest accomplishment at The Potomac School as spearheading the development of strong foundations for young student-athletes on and off the field.
In the spring of 2012, Williams received the inaugural Lance Vermeil Scholarship award from the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association for his dedication, passion and commitment to the field.
Williams, a 2008 graduate of the University of Delaware, was a student-athlete with the Blue Hens football team that won the 2003 national championship. He continued to play through the 2005 season until injury cut his career prematurely.
Following his undergraduate career, he interned with the strength and conditioning staff for a year before being hired as a full-time assistant in 2009.
During his first stint with the Blue Hens, Williams assisted with the football squads that made two post-season appearances, including the 2010 FCS national championship game. He has attributed this success to his readiness to lead a championship caliber program to new heights.
Williams holds numerous certifications and is a member of the National Strength and Conditioning Association and Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association. He is also a consultant for SiSu Systems in Washington, D.C.

Live Scoring: GolfStat.com
The Loyola University Maryland golf team begins the spring portion of its season on Monday with a trip to Goodyear, Ariz., to play in the Re-Bath Snowman Getaway. The two-day tournament will have a 36 hole round on Monday, with the final 18 holes being played on Tuesday. Both rounds will begin with an 8 a.m. shotgun start.
"This winter has been unseasonably warm, so we've been able to get outside and practice quite a bit," head coach Chris Baloga said. "Because of that, we're not going to this tournament to work out the kinks, we're going out there to play."
Loyola will send seniors Ryan McCarthy, Patrick McCormick and Jay Mulieri, in addition to junior Jonathan Ross and freshman Bart George to the event.
The 16-team tournament field includes hosts Washington State, as well as Bradley, British Columbia, Gonzaga, Loyola (Md.), Missouri State, UMKC, UNC Greensboro, North Dakota, St. Bonaventure, St. John's, Seattle, South Dakota, Southern Illinois-Edwardsville, Utah State and Utah Valley. Individuals from Arizona State, UCLA and Wetsern Texas College will also compete.
Throughout the fall, Mulieri led the Greyhounds with a 71.33 stroke average and shot par-or-under through eight of the 15 rounds, en route to two MAAC Golfer of the Month honors. He was the top finisher for Loyola at three of the five competitions, including finishing runner-up at the Hartford Hawks Invitational after losing in a tiebreaker round to UConn's Jeb Buchanan.
George wrapped up the first portion of his rookie season in second on the team with a 72.92 stroke average. In three competitions, he shot under-par through three rounds and was Loyola's top finisher at The McLaughlin, finishing tied for 22nd overall.
At the season-opening Maryland Invitational, McCarthy led the way with a seventh-place finish at the event. He finished the fall with three under-par rounds and a 74.08 stroke average.
McCormick was third on the team this fall with a 73.78 stroke average, while Ross had a stroke average 74.17 through four events.
This tournament will be the first of six spring events for the Greyhounds. Up next, Loyola will head to Orlando, Fla., for the UCF Rio Pinar Invitational on Monday, March 19 and Tuesday, March 20.

It's by no means conclusive that MIKAEL D'HAGUENET is over the jumping problems that have blighted his career but he's a class act when on song and had a nice confidence booster at Thurles last month. He's still in a couple of races at Cheltenham but would need to win this convincingly to take his place. Whodoyouthink has reverted to hurdles recently after several moderate efforts over fences and appears to be the one most likely to take advantage if the selection fails again. Sweeney Tunes hasn't had much experience so it was a good effort to be beaten a head when conceding 6lb to Farrells Fancy in a tough Leopardstown handicap last month.

Did you notice the date? Rated 4 out of 5 stars
The last update was "Released June 16, 2008"; also, the "Home Page' & 'Support site' are 404 (not found). Offhand, I'd say it's been abandoned. It's a shame, I used to really enjoy using this add-on for years.
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Este addon con Firefox 7 se convirtió en un verdadero problema.
Useful but limited Rated 4 out of 5 stars
This add-on is useful however I find that when I've already blocked some third-party sites it doesn't list them when a site calls for the. Many sites have seemed to "just not work" and it turned out I had blocked a domain, however Cookie Manager wasn't showing it in the list to unblock it.
Overall though it's nice to quickly block and unblock sites rather than trekking through the Tools menu.
ALTERNATIVE Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Guys, use "Cookie Whitelist, With Buttons"
It's great and compatible with TabMixPlus as well.
Version for FF4? Rated 5 out of 5 stars
is there any alternative for this addon, as this isn't working for firefox 4? The development seems to be dead as the cangelogs suggest.

Very useful addon to manage all the cookies from web. And very easy to use!
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
I wanted to like this, and am pretty liberal with extensions not completely working - but crashing and having me going into Safe Mode to disable it is not cool. If it's really not ready for prime time, don't release it.
Not good for portable firefox Rated 3 out of 5 stars
This is a good addon.
However does not work properly with portable firefox, while other addons work.
If you move the folder of the portable firefox, this addon DOES NOT WORK. It must designed or improved to not use absolute paths
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
The only Cookie manager I have ever used with Firefox.
Easy to use, and all I need. Good work!
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
I'm yet another that have been bugged by these script freezes.
XCM is claimed to be compatible with firefox 3.0b1 – 3.6.* but it is not!
And checking for plugin compatibility when upgrading firefox shows XCM to be compatible.
Have been using this addon previously with great success, but will never again use it.
I have spent to much time figuring out what caused the freezes, and also two chrashes, of firefox. It causes the browser to freeze, and also puts the PC to a sluggish halt at regular intervals.
This has cost me both time and money!
I certainly cannot recommend this addon.

Yes it is simple but causes conflicts on mozilla.
Freezes the javascript engine.

Hello. I need this extension for the "upgrades the cookie exception dialog with a search function " function. I use a couple other Cookie management Add-ons for my other needs. Cheers
Broke Firefox Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Installed this and FF ran at 100% on a single core with a single tab open. Disabled it and all was fine. Not Recommended
Causes unresponsive script errors Rated 1 out of 5 stars
I had to disable this because it slows down the browsers and causes unresponsive script errors on startup. Using FF 3.6 / Win. I don't recommed using this for anyone.
Rated 2 out of 5 stars
I think I'm using Tab mix plus so this was another add on which won't work with my Firefox. At least there was forewarning of the potential problem. I'd ask the developer to please work with the TMP people to get a fix.
Broke my Firefox. Rated 2 out of 5 stars
I installed this January 15, 2010. I then restarted and Firefox would start but never bring up any page, display my add-ons nor respond to any clicks. I tried several times, cleaned my registry and I reinstalled Firefox. Still nothing. I eventually tracked down the folder for this extension and manually moved it temporarily and started Firefox and it finally ran and brought this page back up for me to tell you what happened. (it was an open tab when i restarted).
Rated 2 out of 5 stars
Makes Firefox use CPU at 100% of a single core for several minutes. This seems to happen especially when using GMail, GMap or Google Reader. The UI and functionality is otherwise OK.
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
This causes Gmail to crash Firefox 3.5. It crashed with Adblock Plus, Adblock Plus Filter Updater, Adblock Plus Element Hiding Helper, ChatZilla, Download Statusbar, and DownThemAll! enabled.
Works fine for me! Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Been using it for ages and now updated to FFx 3.5.2 from 3.0.13.
Always worked and still works fine for me.
Really wondering what is causing the Problem for so many others...
Don't bother trying this Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Upgrading to FF 3.5 meant that the existing cookie manager extension I was using didn't work any more, so I installed this one. Firefox hung at 100%CPU for 10 minutes before I killed it, restarted in safe mode and removed this extension.
Good idea poorly executed.

Conrad is a very well balanced and pragmatic professional, whom I worked with for over one year on a major government project when he filled the role of Enterprise Architect. This government project was extremely complex from both a business and technical standpoint, which required both high levels of technical knowledge and a pragmatic approach to to define solutions that maitained the technical integrity of the architecture whilst meeting changing business requirements. In summary I would commend Conrad to any organisation requiring a highly skilled Enterprise Architect working in a complex environment which requires a balance of empathy with the business requirements and combined with high levels of technical expertise.

Your Care Team
Meet Your Care Team for In-Center Dialysis
To help you manage your kidney disease while on dialysis, a multidisciplinary team of specialists is available:
These physicians specialize in kidney disease. You will see a doctor weekly if you choose in-center dialysis.
Medical Fellows
As a leading academic medical center, Washington University attracts physicians seeking to enhance their medical training in kidney disease. These doctors have already graduated from medical school and have accomplished 3-7 years of residency in internal medicine at a registered hospital. Now they are getting advanced training in renal disease. They are part of the kidney team and work under the direction of an attending nephrologist.
Nurse Practitioners
Nurse practitioners are registered nurses who have completed advanced training, either at the master's degree or doctorate degree level and hold additional national certification in an area of specialty. They collaborate with physicians in the care of patients, making rounds and seeing patients in the in-center dialysis unit.
Our nurses are specially trained in the care of kidney disease patients. Nurses include registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs). Every dialysis patient at Washington University/Barnes-Jewish Hospital is assigned a primary nurse who helps coordinate your care.
Hemodialysis Technicians
These specially trained and certified technicians work in in-center dialysis units and handle many aspects of direct patient care, including the set up of your dialysis machine, checking blood pressures, and monitoring your care.
Social Workers
Because we understand there are emotional and social stresses of dialysis, we have dedicated social workers to help patients on dialysis and their families. This can include counseling as you adjust to living with chronic kidney disease. You will learn effective coping strategies and how to find appropriate resources regarding vocational or financial issues. In addition, they can discuss your transportation needs, if any, and provide much-needed guidance when you wish to travel out of town on business or vacation.
Every patient who begins dialysis will be assigned to a registered dietitian. It is critical for you to follow the dietary guidelines that are set to keep you healthy. Dietitians will review your monthly blood tests and determine if changes in your diet are needed. They even offer tips on food preparation and provide recipes and grocery lists.
Business Staff
Our business staff is highly experienced in assisting with insurance issues related to the cost of your dialysis. They are available to explain what's on your bill and help you understand what your insurance covers and how much your co-pay will be if any. The business staff also submits your Medicare and insurance claims on your behalf.
At any time, feel free to discuss your concerns or ask questions of any renal team member. As you move through your dialysis treatments, the entire renal care team meets together to discuss every patient's progress. If you choose, you have the opportunity to participate in those group meetings either by phone or in person. Notify your patient care coordinator if you are interested.

RMMS Starlight was a Manticoran-flagged passenger liner owned by Hauptman Lines.
The ship had a crew of twenty-eight and could carry several hundred people. In 1922 PD, it was disembarking its passengers in the Manticore System when the system's space facilities came under attack from Mesan graser torpedo in the Mesan Alignment Navy's Operation Oyster Bay. The ship and the passenger concourse with its already disembarked passengers were destroyed by a direct hit from one of the torpedoes. (HH12)

Footage from the new Current TV docu-series 4th and Forever, featuring Snoop Dogg, has surfaced. The nine-episode series chronicles the 2010 season of the Long Beach Polytechnic High School football team, the Jackrabbits. Long Beach Poly has sent more players to the NFL than any other high school in the nation. The series will show why Poly means much more to its students, players and community than simply football. In an area plagued by poverty, drugs and gangs, the team represents a way out for many of the area residents.
In the clip, Snoop speaks with Poly coach Keith Thompson on the importance of the high school. He credits Poly with being behind his decision to start his own celebrated little league football team. Snoop praises the high school as home to "scholars and champions."

I always look forward to my weekends after work days--today seem kinda nice too. I have a church picnic this afternoon; I know it starts by 12noon, but knowning me, I will not be there at that time. In fact, I doubt if anyone will be there at 12. I still haven't figured out want to wear; but I know it is going to be a simple clean outfits to prevent some bad looks especially since I didn't buy the church printed shirt. why? because it is too hot for that kind of shirt. I plan on wearing some kind of tank top. I will post the outfit tonight or tomorrow. any ideas for picnic? This was a picture from yesterday.

Mary-Lou Stephens
Mary-Lou was born and raised in that bit of Australia that's always left off the map and in true Tasmanian style headed off to the big smoke as soon as it was a legal option.
She studied acting at The Victorian College of the Arts and played in bands in Melbourne and Sydney before she got a proper job in radio.
Mary-Lou kicked off her radio career at 2TM in Tamworth. She was lured away from The Country Music Capital to help start up a brand new station in Townsville where she was the Breakfast co-host, Music Director, Assistant Program Director and very tired a lot of the time.
Since joining the team at 90.3 ABC Sunshine Coast Mary-Lou has been the Music Director as well as presenting every shift ever invented including, Drive, Afternoons and Evenings.
You can find Mary-Lou Cooking the Books on the Drive program and as part of the Queensland Food Hall. You can also join her for The Gutenberg Experience, exploring the world of books and reading. And on the subject of books - Mary-Lous own mediation memoir is being published by Pan MacMillan.

I've talked at length before about how easy it can be to give into impulse purchases. In the past, I had the worst self-control when it came to browsing through clearance racks...and, even if I didn't NEED the item in my closet, it would end up coming home with me because I couldn't resist turning down such a great deal. However, I've recently turned the corner and started sticking to a more strict budget (only using money I've made from selling old items on PoshMark). It's really helped me evaluate purchases more thoroughly and it also creates less turnover in my closet.
Which is why I felt it was a natural fit to partner with H&R Block to talk about their new prepaid Emerald MasterCard. This is a fool-proof way to ensure you stick to your budget when shopping. It's a loadable debit/credit card that you can put money onto (no fees, no bills) + an easy way to make sure you only spend what you have in your account. So, if you're like me and have a hard time saying no to those amazing sale finds that you don't really need, this is the perfect solution.
In keeping with the theme of their Emerald Card, I am sharing two ways to incorporate this hue into your wardrobe for spring. Can't get enough of this rich green shade? Check out my Pinterest board of affordable pieces - everything under $75! Take a peek at the outfits I've created below & then read on for how you can enter to win $200 courtesy of H&R Block.

Alex and Grace met through a mutual friend and both of them joined a gaming group that got together every week to play titles like Dungeons and Dragons and Link's Crossbow Training. They became friends but didn't start dating immediately—and when they did, it was long distance. As you might guess from the title of this post, they eventually got engaged and decided on a Legend of Zelda themed wedding. They explained to their photographer:
We are both huge fans of the Legend of Zelda video game series by Nintendo and our mutual love of the game has been a pretty strong point in our relationship. Alex and I both had seen quite a few articles about game-inspired weddings on websites like Kotaku and Offbeat Bride, and when we officially started planning our wedding, it seemed like a Zelda theme would reflect our love very well and be enormously fun to plan.
The Zelda touches included cupcakes topped with green rupees, elf ears for the bridal party, potion cocktails, and subtle placement of the Triforce symbol.

To whom, you ask? Our trusted friends and family, for starters. I don't know about you, but I would much rather get a book recommendation from a close friend than from a system, regardless of how accurate the system's algorithm is. The data we create is perfect for this.
In this article, I'll show you two great websites that connect to your existing accounts and allow you to take the things you've consumed, review them, and share that information with others.
Blippy is a popular website – or specialized social network 10 Specialized Social Networks For You To Join 10 Specialized Social Networks For You To Join The way we communicate has changed and social networks are now the center of our daily lives. Read More – that lets you share your purchases and see what your friends are buying online and in real life. You can communicate about and share your reviewed purchases with friends by syncing your e-commerce accounts on sites like iTunes, Netflix, Woot, eBay, etc.
To start utilizing Blippy, just log in with your Facebook account. You'll be prompted to enter your email address and pick a username to create your account. Then you'll be set to start linking some accounts. If you're worried about security, Blippy states that their page is "secure and protected with bank-level data security".
Just so you know, Blippy will confirm with you which purchases you want everybody to see. Once it finds your purchases, you can begin writing reviews that will help your friends/family find things they may be interested in, but never knew about.
Why would you want to share your purchases with friends? Rather than trying to answer that with some random example or creative metaphor, I'll let Blippy do the explaining:
[NO LONGER WORKS] Blippr
While Blippr may look and sound a lot like Blippy, I assure you it's a completely different animal. Blippr revolves around media, like movies, books, and music. It's a way to find media that you will like fast.
How many times have you asked a friend for a book recommendation, or for what she thought of the movie she saw last weekend? How about the last time you found a great new band through a colleague? We do it, all the time. So, we thought, how can we make it better?
Blippr learns about your tastes, both as you use it and through the people you connect to. We covered the site back in July of '09 originally, but the information is a bit dated, so let me fresh your memory.
Finding apps, books, games, movies, and music you'll love can be a lot easier if you didn't have to sift through those long reviews written by people you don't even know. Blippr allows you to connect your existing accounts with Netflix, Last.fm, Steam, and more. They'll automatically collect the media you consume and place it in an easy-to-manage library where you can keep track of it.
You can begin by connecting through your Twitter and Facebook accounts. Share your opinions through reviews of your content and get your friends' opinions in return. Then, you'll start getting personalized recommendations based on all of your likes.
If you're looking for a similar site/community, I also recommend you check out GetGlue.
See what I mean? Now you can take all of that data you've created online and put it to good use. Let it work for you and make it easier to find things you'll love, as well as help those you care about find the things they love. By all means, this isn't homework. Don't think you have to write lots of in-depth reviews to get your point across. Treat them like tweets, 140 characters or less.
What do you think of these services? Will you be making use of the data you create?

Woh! Blippy wants direct access to GMail account to scan my emails, find and read my receipts? Some people are actually willing to allow that!? I'm a bit dumbfounded.

Performer Finds 'Other Voice' In Cancer Play
By Dana Casadei
Originally printed 8/23/2013 (Issue 2134 - Between The Lines News)
Anne Frank once said, "I don't think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains." For Alex Kip, that quote couldn't ring more true.
Enter his autobiographical show, "My Other Voice," which makes its premiere Thursday, Aug. 15 at the University of Michigan's Arthur Miller Theatre, and you'll understand how he found the beauty in a situation when some would have only seen the bad.
After being diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma two weeks before graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre from the University of Michigan, Kip would go on to lose not only his voice while getting treatment at the U-M Medical Center, but his identity as a performer.
"When I lost my voice, (writing) sort of became my new creative outlet in a sense," Kip said. "(The show) was allowing myself to explore whatever interested me and not judging it as far as I've never written a play before, and just seeing what happens."
Kip said the show covers an eight to nine month period and takes viewers from life before the diagnosis to him getting better and "everything that happens in-between."
His diagnosis in 2010, where he was given a 15-30 percent chance of survival, came as what Kip describes as a "relief in a weird way." After struggling vocally the entire year, the London Dramatic Academy graduate was finally able to identify what was going on.
Then in 2012, when he was "done with everything," Kip made the move to New York, where he was cast in a play Ari Laura Kreith was directing.
Kreith, who's the artistic director at Theatre 167 in New York and director of "My Other Voice," is primarily a new works director and works with medical students doing professional identity development, using theater as a tool to awaken their awareness.
While discussing this with Kip, it led to a conversation about collaborating between the first-time playwright and seasoned director.
"We had a moment of 'let's just go get coffee,'" Kreith said. "So we walk down and literally, neither of us can remember who said it first, but we both said, 'I think we should write a play.'"
Kip began writing and bringing in scenes - and the rest, as they say, is history.
Kreith said she had no idea what the project was going to be when it began, but as the piece evolved, she was "struck by the way that he (Kip) tells his story."
"It wasn't so much me taking a chance on a piece, but reaching out to a person and both of us discovering that it would be something really meaningful and deserved to be explored," she said.
After readings in New York, the show staged a workshop in Columbus, Ohio, Kip's hometown, before coming to Ann Arbor for its premiere - and in a sense, an out-of-town tryout.
"I don't think much will change after this, but it's sort of our chance to really get to work at it a lot and really expose it to a lot of people and go from there," Kip said.
Kip's and Kreith's hopes for this show go much beyond seeing it perform off-Broadway or on Broadway, even though that is a hope. There are dreams to turn it into a film or TV series, a la HBO's "The Big C." But more importantly, the show is about getting people to discuss and ask questions about young adult cancer, which is the number one killer of young adults today.
Kip said that the young adult cancer movement is really starting to pick up, as there are a lot of questions people don't have answers to. He also said that there is a lot of controversy around it, leading to people really getting interested in the specific age group.
"I think (the show is) a way to expose the problem in the system and expose why maybe we aren't getting better or why people are dying, and to really look at it more intensely - but in an interesting way too," Kip said.
The way that the show addresses cancer is also being done in a way that won't make viewers think of a "movie-of-the-week tearjerker," Kreith said. Something else they've heard a lot is how surprised people are by the humor in it.
"He's (Kip) someone who's always proven to seeing the hopeful and sometimes the absurd in the moment," she said. "I think that's one of the strengths of the play.
"It's interesting because people think about this play as the cancer play, and it's really a play where cancer catalyzes change," Kreith said. "There's a larger sense where it's an identity play, and it's also a play about truly discovering what matters."

Former Chrysler Executive Talks Workplace Inclusivity
As an openly gay man, Fred Hoffman said, "I really didn't know if there would be an issue." And while he wasn't waving rainbow flags when he was recruited by Chrysler in 1988, he was told being gay wasn't a problem.View More Automotive

The 25th Social Business Design Lab took place on August 23, 2014 at the Grameen Bank Auditorium, participated by around 100 representatives of national and international organizations.
At the 25th design lab, six new social business plans were presented. These included four Nobin Udyokta projects, businesses launched by young entrepreneurs who are the children of Grameen Bank families. The ones selected for presentation were Sumaiya Poultry Feed & Medicine Corner, a business on running a poultry feed by Md. Sohel Rana, Mim Fashion, a business on selling different items of clothing and tailored products by Kajol Begum and Khokon Video Editing Center, a business aims to provide quality video products to the local customers by Md. Sumon, who is only one went upto fifth grade in primary school.
Another Nobin Udyokta project is Afsana Pigeon Farm, a business on rearing and selling pigeon was presented by Ms Afsana Naznin, who is just 22 years old and completed her BBA degree.
The other projects presented in the Lab were- Himel Mushroom Cultivation Project, a business aiming to diversify food through Mushroom products by Mrs. Morsheda Akter Lipi, and Creation Handmade ltd, a social business initiative aims to manufacture and export handmade, non-traditional, pioneering diversified jute products to meet global market demand by increasing participation of female labor force in Bangladesh by Ms Afsana Jahan.
All the projects were discussed in details in breakout groups after which participants reconvened to hear how the businesses might be improved or refined and scoring was done by group on the quality of the projects. Groups also gave their recommendations for funding of the projects.
In between sessions, Professor Yunus participated in Q and A with the online viewers from different countries. Usually participants between 60 and 80 countries view each Lab.
At the end, a Joint Venture Agreement signed between Grameen Telecom Trust and ASHIKA Manabik Unnayan Kendra based in Chittagong Hill Tracts. It's a Mushroom Seed Social Business initiative, promoting the production of organic mushroom seeds/spawns. This is the first social business of its kind launched in the Chittagong Hill Tracts area.
Professor Yunus thanked the participants for the innovative social businesses and noted that on this occasion that two third of the businesses presented were by women, which is a trend he hoped would continue. He also invited participants to attend in the next Yunus Centre Social Business Design Lab which will be held on 17 September.

text: Yes my idea car would be a A3 saloon with the 1.6 ecoboost engine in candy red, but I can't have it all my way. I do like my Focus and it does fit my needs, however we also have just purchased a 2013 Fiesta Titanium X with the 1.0l ecoboost and having two Ford's in the family is just too geeky. This might be my last ever car purchase, who knows, so I am looking at something with a more premium look and feel to it, and something a little different of course. Having said that, Ford did raise the bar for a family car with the Mk3 Focus and the Mk4 Mondeo, which I had before the Focus, and I cannot complain about the cost as I got very good deals for them both.

Claire Messud's new novel, The Burning Girl, feels somehow different from anything she's done before...
Condition: Standard
All Product Details
Since Mr. Show closed up shop, Bob and David have kept busy with many projects — acting in fun, successful, movies and TV shows, directing things, and complaining about stuff that didn't turn out well to anyone who would listen, and even alone, in silence, inside their own heads.
Hollywood Said No! reveals the full-length, never-before-seen scripts for Bob and David Make a Movie (fleshed out with brand-new storyboards by acclaimed artist Mike Mitchell) and Hooray For America!: a satirical power-house indictment of all that you hold dear. This tome also includes a bonus section of orphaned sketch ideas from the Mr. Show days and beyond, suitable for performance by church groups that aren't all koo-koo about religion. What you are looking at online, and are about to buy, is chock-full of comic twists, turns, and maybe a few hard truths. We said "maybe," but what we mean was "probably not."
Now, for the first time, take a peek at the scripts that didn't get the go-ahead and ponder a world we can only dream about... and beyond!

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have a twelve month lease. I rec'd a notice to vacate on my door 11 July 2012. This is what the letter says:
It is our unfortunate duty to inform you that our office willnot be able to accept your july rent. Due to the payment of your rent for your apartment being late 5 times over the term of your lease. Our coorperate office is terminating your lease and requesting that you vacate. Please refer any questions to our cooperate office.
I have a few questions. From what I researched this is considered an unconditional quit notice. The letter is dated 11 July 2012. They are not giving me a chance to pay the rent. Yes I have paid the rent late due to employment issues but its never been past seven days and I have not recieved an eviction notice before from the company. I have the rent money and have left four messages per day with the VP and the distrcit manger, all not to be returned. They disabled my ability to pay rent online and also to accept it in person at th office. WHat are my options. Nothing they have given me has a date on it? I dont know how many days I have to leave and no one i returning my phone calls.My lease is up in August 2012. There has been no legal filings as of today against me and stil no repsonse from the company. Should I mail them my rent certified to the cooperate office? Should I send them a letter? Get a lawyer? My rent was late most times because of change of pay, I am in the Army reserves and do about 15 days a month. The last two months my rent was late bc I am catching up on bills from a deployment which ended May 17th. So June and July rent were late. I am in Ohio.
What you should do is controlled by the written terms of your lease agreement and the landlord-tenant law of Ohio. You need a real estate attorney who practices Ohio landlord-tenant law to help you. If you do not act propmtly to get help, your landlord may evict you.
NOTICE: Neither the mere sending of nor the content of the above Internet email message creates an attorney-client relationship (or any relationship) between the lawyer identified below and any other party identified herein. Such a relationship may only be created by written document signed by all the parties and the attorney that specifically states that the named client(s) is/are hiring the named attorney and which further sets out the terms of such engagement. If you have a legal problem, you should immediately seek competent legal advice from a qualified attorney. Your situation may be affected by time requirements imposed by law; therefore you should not delay in seeking competent legal advice.Ask a similar question
It is impossible to say what is a "proper legal notice" without having seen the notice. I will say that these types of notices need to comply with Ohio Revised Code Section 1923.04 (http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/1923.04). Make note of the language in section (A) that must appear in the notice. Generally, if a landlord was seeking to evict for non-payment of rent, you would see a 3-day "pay or quit" statement in the notice which would require you to pay up or get out within 3 days or they could start the formal eviction process.
If what you quoted above was all the language contained in the notice, and your lease expires in August anyway, it sounds to me like they are letting you know that they do not intend to renew your lease or permit you to stay beyond lease expiration on a month to month basis. Of course I cannot know that for sure without getting clarification from the landlord, but I would suggest that you go ahead and make alternate living arrangements effective the day your lease ends (July 31st?), and if they didn't accept your July rent I imagine they will swipe your security deposit to cover that last month.
When in doubt, it is always good advice to consult with a local landlord/tenant attorney who can review your lease in person and perhaps have some success in contacting the landlord. I hope this was helpful, and best of luck to you.
I am licensed in the State of Ohio, posting a response to your question or issue does not create an attorney-client relationship and I AM NOT providing you legal advice. You should speak with an attorney who is licensed in your state to whom you have provided all the facts, before you take steps that may impact your legal rights--or rights to recovery of damages.Ask a similar question

U.S. competitiveness needs addressed, funds not yet OK'd
Manufacturing technologies contributing to control engineering have an opportunity to expand as part of the American Competitive Initiative (ACI), according to President George W. Bush near Chicago on July 7. The U.S. House of Representatives provided funding recently; the Senate still must approve the appropriation.
President Bush announced ACI in the 2006 State of the Union Address and has discussed it regularly since. President Bush toured Cabot Microelectronic Corp. in Aurora, IL, then touted the need to "enhance math and science in early grades, and encourage people to take math and science in the later years" to ensure the U.S. remains competitive in future high-technology endeavors, such as new energy technologies, supercomputing, and nanotechnology. Cabot Microelectronics makes polishing compounds and pads used in to manufacture advanced semiconductors (chips) and rigid disks.
Among ACI goals, President Bush said in comments at Cabot, "is to encourage advanced placement programs in our nation's schools, and help train 30,000 teachers in advanced placement. Another is to get people from institutions like this to go into our middle schools and high schools and say, it's okay to be a scientist, you know; math and science will be important for your future. In other words, try to inspire people. We call that an adjunct professor program.
"We've got a role at the federal government to make sure that we're research oriented in a technology-driven economy, and that is to spend your money on basic research, so that, for example, nanotechnology is a really important part of the economy -- an important growing part of the economy…. it makes sense to double the basic research budget of our federal government to help companies like this stay on the leading edge of change."
President Bush praised the House for providing funding for the American Competitive Initiative and encouraged the U.S. Senate to do so. On June 29, the House passed the fiscal year 2007 Science, State, Justice and Commerce Appropriations Act by a 393-23 margin. The bill includes funding for the Bush Administration's $6 billion request to strengthen basic research at the National Science Foundation (NSF) and $535 million at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). These are among research components of the American Competitiveness Initiative, along with House funding of $4.1 billion in May for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science, according to the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy. ACI's goal is to devote more than $136 billion over 10 years to these initiatives.

Iran launches its first submarine for tourists
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran has launched its first submarine for tourists in the Persian Gulf waters, an all-Iranian-made undersea vehicle.
State TV says the sub has been dubbed Morvarid, or Pearl in Farsi, and has the capacity to carry four people per voyage. It says the vessel is 13 feet long and 9.8 feet in both width and height.
Friday's report says the submarine will serve tourists in Kish Island, Iran's prime tourist spot in the Gulf.
Morvarid has been entirely designed and manufactured by Iranian experts. The TV also says it has a speed of up to 12 knots, has a diesel generator but can be electrically-powered for up to six to 10 hours.
Iran's Navy has several Russian-made and smaller Iranian-built submarines in service.

text: Motorola Solutions strikes out on its own13 Jan 2011 01:40 PM Company says the value of its mobile and wireless technology businesses has been 'unlocked' now they are trading separatelyMotorola Solutions has completed its separation from Motorola Mobility and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange from 4 January. The split between the two parts of Motorola Inc. has been two years in planning. Motorola Mobility includes the mobile phone and set-top box parts of the company, while Motorola Solutions provides business and mission critical communication products and services to enterprise and Government customers.Tom Quirke (pictured), a VP and global TETRA lead within Motorola Solutions, explained to Wireless the reason behind the split. 'What it allows us to do is unlock the value of both sides of the company, which have two very different kinds of customer base. It will allow each organization to be more agile within its own market.'Motorola Solutions has b2b relationships with big organisations. We have very few consumer customers. Motorola Mobility's consumer customers have a very different dynamic. The tempo of getting products to market is much quicker, with a faster turnover of products that need to keep up with fashion.'In b2b, it's the opposite dynamic,' he said. 'You've got to have the product in the market for a long time. It needs to be embedded for a while to allow customers to make informed decisions and for them to set up the training needed.'Quirke said that customers will see a renewed sense of vigour following the separation. 'It's a fresh start for us and you will see very dynamic engagement with the market with more listening and understanding of customers and more thought leadership from us. We are undertaking a lot of R&D investment. Being the number one manufacturer generates an expectation to lead the market. We will step up and do that and this will result in a different class of products and solutions.'Quirke said it is important for Motorola to get close to its customers and understand their requirements. Motorola's goal is to ensure it can provide the devices, infrastructure, applications and services – a complete solution – hence the choice of name.'Many think that it is a factual, analytical decision in deciding which customer or vendor to go with, but it's actually quite emotional,' said Quirke. 'You've got to live with each other for many years. You have to decide whether they are committed as a customer and will they be around in years to come. But we know the peaks and troughs in the market and can accommodate them.'Wireless magazineLeave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

Maplesville running back Terence Dunlap (above) is one of the best players in Alabama in 2016
Class 3A: Mobile Christian (13-1) vs. Piedmont (14-0), 11 a.m.
Making its first state title game appearance under Ronnie Cottrell, Mobile Christian is paced by a stingy defense that is allowing just 10.6 points per game. Leading the way is Arizona commitment Troy Young at safety and talented 2018 defensive end Andres Fox.
For Piedmont it's all about the offense with quarterback Taylor Hayes trying to guide his team to back-to-back state championships. Averaging 42.9 points per game, Piedmont has failed to score at least 30 points just twice this season while topping the 50-point mark in three of four playoff games.
Class 1A: Maplesville (13-0) vs. Pickens County (11-3), 3 p.m.
Pickens County will be looking to knock off powerhouse Maplesville when the two meet for the 1A crown on Thursday. Allowing just 6.8 points per game with seven shutouts on defense and scoring 49.5 points per game on offense, the Red Devils are led by two of the state's top players in senior running back Terence Dunlap and junior wide receiver/linebacker Nathaniel Watson. This season Dunlap has 2,641 yards and 44 touchdowns while adding seven interceptions on defense. Watson already has an Auburn offer and is a big-play threat on offense and defense.
Allowing a touchdown or less to six opponents this season, Pickens County is led on defense by Arkansas State commitment Caleb Bonner. Offensively quarterback Zach Thomas is the key for a Pickens County offense that averages 41.6 points per game and has seven games of 50 points or more.
Class 5A: Beauregard (12-1) vs. Wenonah (11-2), 7 p.m.
Averaging 48.7 points per game this season with the only loss coming at Central Clay County, the Hornets are led by standout running back Ladamian Webb and his nearly 3,000 rushing yards and 42 touchdowns. Last week the Hornets avenged a loss at Jackson in round three with a 45-25 win over the Aggies to make its first title appearance. Quarterback Jaichis Holmes has thrown for 1,026 yards and 11 touchdowns while adding 400 yards rushing and 10 touchdowns on the ground. Zach Feaster is the guy on defense for the Hornets with 125 tackles, four interceptions, and a pair of caused fumbles on the year.
A program that had never made it past the third round of the playoffs, Wenonah defeated top-ranked Scottsboro two weeks ago and last week knocked off Briarwood to advance to Thursday night's game. Wenonah makes its mark on defense, giving up just 11.5 points per game and only allowing two of their last eight opponents to score more than a touchdown. Quarterback Carlos Rogers (5-11, 190) is just a junior but runs the show for the Dragons with tiny running back Telvin Miller a threat to go the distance. On defense big linebacker Giovanni Williams can move despite being perhaps the biggest player on the field.

The History of Jack Connor
Edited by: Ian Campbell Ross
The History of Jack Connor (1752) is the only (and once very popular) novel of the Irish writer of Huguenot descent, William Chaigneau (1709-1781). An example of sentimental picaresque fiction in the manner of Alain-Rene Lesage's Gil Blas (1715-1747) and Tobias Smollett's Roderick Random (1748), the work also reveals Chaigneau's admiration for Henry Fielding's then-controversial Tom Jones (1749). The entertaining wanderings of Jack Connor take him from his birth and childhood in an Ireland described in unusual detail - through London, Paris, Flanders, and Spain - before returning him to the Co. Limerick of his birth. Describing the novel as a 'truly moral tale,' the London Monthly Review (1747) acknowledged the justice of the author's 'smart reprisals upon the English, for their national and vulgar prejudice against their brethren of Ireland.' (Series: Early Irish Fiction, c.1680-1820)

If you are looking to escape and chill out but still have access to the outside world look no furthe
We never tired of looking at the views both when at the property or whilst driving to and from there was always something new. Catriana and Martin were extremely helpful. The Barn is extremely well equipped and sitting by the pool with the views to die for......we will be back to explore more thank you 👍🏼👍🏼😎🌞
A very relaxing holiday
The property is spacious and comfortable and set in beautiful surroundings. It is comprehensibly equipped with all that is needed for a home from home. The weather was warm and sunny throughout our stay, so we had no need to avail ourselves of the huge selection of books and videos on offer. Set in the foothills of the Pyrenees, the property is splendidly private, we would sit out in the evenings with a glass of wine and watch the bats, and later on, the stars, which are magnificent in that part of the world. We enjoyed many lovely meals in the restaurants of Ceret, Argeles sur Mer, Collioure and Roses. The €17.9 menu at the restaurant at the El Sol supermarket in La Jonquera is great value, we had moules mariniere, gilled sea bass with vegetables and fries, followed by creme Catalan with what seemed like half a bottle of wine each. Our dog Muttley was free to roam as far as he wanted to his hearts content, and in the evenings he would hold long in depth conversations with the hound pack located a mile or so away. Luckily there were no neighbours for him to upset! All in all a very enjoyable holiday. Steve and Jo Eastman.

New Delhi: Following an all-round attack, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley yesterday initiated a complete roll back of the controversial proposal to tax the Employees' Provident Fund (EPS) at the time of withdrawal.
FM Arun Jaitley. Pic/PTI
"In view of the representations received, the government would like to do comprehensive review of this proposal and therefore I withdraw the proposals in para 138 and 139 on my budget speech. The proposal of 40 per cent exemption given to NPS subscribers at the time of withdrawal remains," he said.
As the Centre rolled back the controversial proposal to tax EPF withdrawal, Rahul Gandhi mounted a fresh attack on the government.
"Finally the government was forced to listen to people and roll back the patently unfair tax on EPF. But the attempt to tax the safety net of millions of hard working middle class ppl was morally wrong&shows this Govt's anti-ppl mindset (sic)", the Congress VP stated on Twitter.
