Kanye West Rips Jimmy Kimmel Over Interview Parody
Subscribe to K945, The Hit Music Channel on
Who knew: Kanye West can't take a joke!
The rapper went on an all-caps rampage after late-night host Jimmy Kimmel did a spoof of his non-self-effacing interview with BBC Radio where Kimmel used children to recreate the tlak between West and interviewer Zane Lowe.
"JIMMY KIMMEL IS OUT OF LINE TO TRY AND SPOOF IN ANY WAY THE FIRST PIECE OF HONEST MEDIA IN YEARS," West tweeted.
He continued, "YOUR FACE LOOKS CRAZY IS THAT FUNNY? OR IF I HAD A KID SAY IT WOULD IT BE FUNNY???"
He even went on to call Kimmel's ex, comedian Sarah Silverman, "a thousand times funnier than Kimmel.
Kimmel issued a response on his own Twitter account, promising to reveal all on Thursday's "Jimmy Kimmel Live."
Have a fishstick, Kanye.

NASSAU, Bahamas (CMC) — A former government minister was charged with extortion when he appeared in court on Thursday.
Former Minister of Environment Kendred Dorsett was charged with extorting US$120,000 from Johnathan Ash.
Dorsett was also charged with accepting bribes in the same amount.
The former minister reportedly committed the crimes between March 1 and May 9, and was charged with four counts of extortion, four counts of bribery and one count of misconduct in public office.
He pleaded not guilty to all charges and was remanded in prison.
The case is adjourned to August 31.
The news of Dorsett's arrest follows the arrest of Dion Smith, the former deputy speaker of the house was taken into custody in May in connection with an investigation at the Bahamas Agricultural and Industrial Corporation.
Smith, who was chairman of BAIC at the time, was released from police custody a day later without being charged.
Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis has pledged to weed out corruption in all government ministries.
Before the general election, Minnis labeled former Prime Minister Perry Christie and his administration the "most corrupt, the most incompetent and the most victimising government since independence."

The tail of an "Entrepremermaid:" The birth of the Mermaid Linden by Body Glove Monofin
In 2015, the Mermaid Linden by Body Glove line of children's swim products was introduced on the global market. The monofins were designed by a real life mermaid, Linden Wolbert, with the dream of helping children all over the world experience swimming in a new way; with a sense of mermaid and merman magic in the water, encouraging kids to become explorers and ambassadors of our oceans.
With a love for all aquatic creatures great and small, Linden's web series, Mermaid Minute as well as her years of experience as a mermaid performer, played a crucial role in the birth of this product. Miss Scuba recently caught up with Linden and wanted to learn more about how this all came to be.
MISS SCUBA: How did your idea for the Mermaid Linden Monofin emerge?
MERMAID LINDEN: The idea of a different kind of children's monofin came to me over the many years I have been performing...er...merforming at children's birthday parties around the globe.
Since kids want to become mermaids just as much as anyone, they naturally excite over the idea of trying on a monofin for the first time. Usually, they're hooked after the first lap! Before the "mermaid tail" craze began over the past couple of years, there were a small number of kid's monofins available on the market.
Needless to say, I had lots of improvements in mind for making them more safe, comfortable, powerful, fun, and to actually stay put on a child's feet as they traverse their imaginary underwater seascape...AKA the backyard swimming pool Since I had tons of experience watching kids use them, it was like a mental beta-test for my imagined monofins.
MS: So what was the catalyst that made them become a reality?
ML: I am on the board of an amazing ocean non-profit called Reef Check and met the truly wonderful Russ Lesser, who is the long-time President of Body Glove International and fellow board member. Russ is a man of integrity who makes things HAPPEN! Talk about a guy to look up to....Russ is a force of nature. The world is a better place because he is in it!
Everyone has to do their best just to keep up with him! He is 75 years old and has the energy of a 20-something and a heart of pure gold. We got along famously as fellow left-handed water folks and musicians, and one day he asked me more about my mermaid work.
I mentioned using monofins at kid's parties and how inefficiently they worked. It then dawned on me that Russ might be a
great person to ask about product development. I had no intention or inkling of working with Body Glove at that moment, I simply thought he was a great brain to pick on the subject. He quickly said, "Let's discuss this next week and set up a meeting. How's Wednesday?"
The following week, when I turned up at Russ's office in Redondo Beach at Body Glove Headquarters for what I thought was a casual meeting, I discovered Russ had much bigger plans. He proposed a full line of mermaid-inspired products with my (whaaaat??) name on them, "designed by a real life mermaid with ocean education in mind."
He wanted to tie in my Mermaid Minute ocean educational series, which had gone viral on YouTube, with the products; encouraging children to learn to swim and protect our oceans all at once. I was flabbergasted. This is the moment when the Mermaid Linden by Body Glove children's swim line bubbled up out of the ether...all thanks to Russ.
MS: How long did the design and creation process take? What was involved?
ML: From inception of the idea to holding a product prototype in my hands, it took about two years. I first designed and sketched out my concepts. I hand-drew over 30 product possibilities, all with a mermaid twist.
We knew the monofins would become our top-seller, so the focus was on them from the get-go. Tooling and molding, beta testing, design trial and error, aesthetic, comfort, functionality...these things all take time and patience to achieve and achieve successfully. My wish was for the tail to look much like my own silicone tail, an original design with a crescent fluke that some of the fastest fish in the world possess.
I worked with an awesome design team who were wonderful. After months and months of back and forth sketches, emails, digital renderings and upgrades, I finally held the prototype of one of my monofins in my hands in late 2014. It was a truly exciting moment! I learned immeasurable things throughout the process. What a ride!
MS: How cool! How does it feel now that they're out in the world?
ML: Even after all of the hard work put into making my vision a reality, I still myself when I look at the boxed product with my picture on it.
How did this happen?!? My mind boggles as I watch kids all over the world posting up videos on YouTube of them unboxing and wearing my monofins. I get tagged in lots of photos on Instagram as well! I created them with an amazing company I have always admired and loved, Body Glove.
It is even more surreal to see kids wearing a monofin based on the mermaid tail I designed even longer ago and still use to this day. I have been professionally mermaiding for over a decade now, so I guess you could say I'm starting to feel "well seasoned" by the salt of experience! Yup, queen of bad ocean puns in the house!
MS: Where can people (sea fans) buy your Mermaid Linden by Body Glove Monofins?
ML: My website, www.mermaidsinmotion.com, Amazon.com, Sam's Club US and Mexico, and various other outlets around the world. Right now they are selling like hot crab cakes in the Philippines, which is so neat! I have "met" so many amazing little sea fans through social media thanks to the monofins making their way around the planet. Just the coolest thing!!! You can watch the monofins in action here
Mermaid Linden is a pioneer of the profession of being a mermaid. She has been featured in countless media outlets around the world including for her ocean-related educational work and philanthropic efforts with children. Her passion is "edutaining" and enchanting children around the globe about our oceans and the creatures in it, and encouraging swimming and diving as a means of recreation, conservation and exploration of our blue planet.

Outlast the Marathon: 7 Tips to Survive CMJ Music Marathon
New York City -- You'll need more to survive this marathon than your CMJ Badge. These are the 7 must-know tips for CMJ Music Marathon.
1. Arrive Early and Have a Backup Plan
Photo via Billboard
Many CMJ venues are small and tend to fill up quickly, especially when an event is free with an RSVP. Even if you have a badge, you will be turned away at the door if the venue is at capacity. If you don't want to be stranded on the sidewalk after Plan A falls through, keep a festival guide or CMJ's mobile app handy so you know where to go next.
2. Bring a Big Bag
Photo via Hypebeast
Whether it's the CMJ registration gift bag or your own version, a large bag will come in handy for keeping your iPad or notebook for panels, business cards for networking, and a jacket to transition from daytime to nighttime temperatures. Plus, some showcases will be sponsored, and you know what that means - free stuff!
3. Bring Business Cards, Not Resumes
Photo via Careerealism
Every industry player and their mom come to NYC for CMJ. If you're a band or aspiring industry insider, pass our your business cards like candy and make small talk. You never know what opportunities may arise from networking, but don't be too forward - save the resume pushing for your next meeting.
4. Get Charged
Photo via Mophie
We're huge fans of the Mophie Juice Pack this festival season; I'll choose a battery case over carrying around a charger any day. Between instagramming your new favorite band to following your Google Maps App to the next event, your phone is bound to die before the last show of the night.
5. Download a Subway App
Don't be these guys
Both Hop Stop and Google Maps combine subway, bus, and walking directions to get you from Point A to Point B at specific times. Have a few bucks to spend? Download NextStop; it includes real-time arrival estimates. When getting around is this easy, you'll save a fortune avoiding taxis.
6. Hit the Right Outfit Balance
Photos via CMJ Street Style
You want to impress during the daytime panels, but showcases are more casual. To strike the perfect balance, dress nicely and respectably but keep the heels at home if you plan on showcase hopping. Black denim is always a good bet; it can be made to appear like business pants in the day yet pairs well with a leather jacket at night.
7. Keep Our Pocket Guide Handy
Want to share some tapas before heading to Bowery Ballroom? How about lunch near CMJ's headquarters? Our pocket travel guide to CMJ has you covered on where to eat, sleep, shop, party, and explore around the Marathon's venues in both Manhattan and Brooklyn.
For more tips and festival insights, pick up a copy of our free pocket-sized guide or view and download it online.

Good-bye, David.
May 15th, 2013 at 9:28am
Yesterday, in the wee, dark hours of 4 am. I dragged myself out of bed and began preparations to get David and Leonard out the door to go up to Madison to see David off at the airport. It hardly seems possible that his 17-day leave is over already. He is now training at SOI in San Diego for the next two months, before he graduates from THAT. And then we will be waiting to see where he will be deployed. I'm just so proud of him and his courage to do this. Love you, David!

Viavi Solutions announced last week that KT, South Korea's largest telecommunications service provider, has selected the xSIGHT Customer Experience Assurance (CEA) platform to support collaborative development of innovative network technologies and services.
Viavi Solutions announced last week that KT, South Korea's largest telecommunications service provider, has selected the xSIGHT Customer Experience Assurance (CEA) platform to support collaborative development of innovative network technologies and services.
As a visionary pioneer in telecommunications, KT is developing next-generation networks, and is planning to deliver 5G services at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics in 2018. The company is committed to implementing innovative network technologies to meet the complex and contradictory requirements of 5G and IoT—such as massive data processing, as well as varying bandwidth and latency for different devices and applications—on one network. KT's strategy centers on software-defined infrastructure (SDI), and the carrier has launched the SDI Open Eco Alliance to encourage industry collaboration to develop, standardize, and test SDI core technologies in all areas of infrastructure from core network to access network, and to realize next-generation enterprise information and communications services.
In addition, KT recently inaugurated the NFV Open Lab at its Woo-myon facility in Seocho-gu, Seoul to foster collaboration among companies such as Cisco, HPE, Samsung and Viavi. As new network technologies and services are explored in the lab, Viavi's xSIGHT will provide analytics on impact to customer experience, ensuring that innovations and adaptations drive toward the ultimate objective of any network. xSIGHT is Viavi's customer experience assurance portfolio including an analytics platform fed by agents distributed throughout the network. The agents—deployable as physical units or virtual functions—passively analyze traffic in real time, build network and application performance metrics and selectively store traffic for troubleshooting purposes.
"The paradigm shift from hardware to software is taking place in network infrastructure due to the 5G and IoT era. We have established the NFV Open Lab to create a vital ecosystem for software-defined network innovation," said Han Won-sik, SCM Strategic Manager, KT. "We hope to provide partners with a platform to not only test and prove out new technologies, but to discover opportunities for business growth."
"We applaud KT's leadership in laying the foundation for 5G and IoT, and are pleased to be invited to collaborate in the NFV Open Lab," said Sameh Yamany, Chief Technology Officer, Viavi Solutions. "Multiple cloud-based network functions can be automated and programmed to meet different use cases across entire end-to-end connections; yet mobile operators don't currently have the infrastructure to take advantage of this. KT and its partners are addressing these needs rapidly and collaboratively to ensure readiness for 5G as early as 2018."

Girls love scars.
I have for the longest time been an average guy, I workout once in a while, get high often and go to bars to get some college tail. Its been a good time and great results.
Recently, I joined a local gym that offers Muay Thai boxing, if you dont know what that is, here is a Wikipedia link. So this shit is intense. I have never been in better shape. I know I get my ass kicked a lot by the pros at this gym, but with warmer weather coming up, my abs are starting to form nicely and thats all I really care about at this point – my abs and arms.
Back to the story. So with this sport, I get some nice face shots and recently got a black eye. A few weeks back you might remember my head going into a satellite dish which left a scar, small one on my forehead. Well its these types of battle wounds that girls love. For some reason it enables these hot chicks who wear no panties some sort of purpose.
Well that is fine-fukadiddaly-great with me. Seriously boys, get out there and get some active shit going on. Not only will you stand out from all those lazy farts at the bars, you will have the stamina to go all night long. You know what I'm talking about.

EPL 2016/17: Tougher tests await Jurgen Klopp in title chase
Liverpool have been here before but under Jurgen Klopp, their title chase seems more legit although sterner tests await the Merseysiders.
Atop the Premier League table heading into the game-crazy month of December, Liverpool have it going their way and Jurgen Klopp is not overlooking the possibilities that face them in the coming months as the talk of lifting the title grows increasingly.
His side has flattered in the opening episodes of the league season having brushed aside the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, and Leicester City, among others. Their play is very much desirable by the neutrals, having won many hearts in the course of lifting the hopes of their title-eluded fans.
A sense of Deja vu?
They have been here before. Their closest title push in a decade arrived when Brendan Rodgers took them above Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea, only to be halted in a dramatic fashion at Anfield by the latter, led by Jose Mourinho. Their ambitions were crushed and their slim hopes of the odd title win brought to an earth-shattering end. Gone were those days when the Anfield club boasted of Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling.
Also read: 10 stats that show how incredible Liverpool have been this season
Irresistible force
There's a new attacking trio at the club and they are equally breathtaking. Their attitude and mentee are even better. Klopp's gradual change in this Liverpool side has started earning them some aggrandisement that easily makes rival hearts grow covetous.
The former Borussia Dortmund manager has gently altered the shape and personnel of the side, turning them into the right force for a strong title push. The arrival of Sadio Mane was greeted with much acclaim, as he was to partner Roberto Firminho in attack, but it was the Coutinho masterstroke that has attracted more plaudits. The Brazilian looks a different player these days.
Between the trio, Liverpool have 16 goals to their credit this season after 11 games, that is already more than half of the 26 goals Coutinho, Firminho and Sturridge got them the entirety of last season.
Prior to this season, you could greet the Brazilian with a mischievous "Mr Inconsistent" and his response will be a reluctant nod. Fine performances in the Liverpool shirt were punctuated by the consistently inconsistent blips in games. There were moments he went AWOL and many doubted he could actually achieve anything great as a player, but he's proven them wrong. He scored eight goals in 27 appearances last season but has seen an upturn this season with five goals in 11 games.
(Video courtesy: LFC entertainment)
The desire to unleash his talents anytime his boss calls for it has given Liverpool the boost for challenging for the title this season. However, Klopp prefers a careful approach to building up momentum for the season.
"Of course, it's better that they think something like this than they say 'thank God it's Liverpool at the weekend, so quite an easy game'," Klopp said to reporters. "But in the end, it's not a big value for us, what other teams think about us – it's good and it's positive but not too important.
Feet firmly on the ground
"The main thing is that we actually think about ourselves: 'Yeah, we are quite a good team.' We have big expectations on ourselves and I'm not pessimistic, I'm really optimistic, but I don't like to make these positive assessments all the time and say 'we are really good – my God, how good are we?"
The tactician on Merseyside is fully aware of the troubles that await them during the marathon and has called for calm when they do step on the mines. "I know about the problems we could have in the future, and we need to stay in the race. It's not about celebrating each time like 'my God, that was so fantastic!' he emphasised.
"It's a kind of sign and a kind of confidence we need to have that we celebrate it in the moment, then we accept this is normal – this is our quality and what we expect," he added.
Liverpool have conceded in every league game played this season, minus the clash against old foes Manchester United – well, the Mourinho-led side were fully happy to sit deep and barely troubled Loris Karius. With 14 goals shipped in, Klopp knows where their weakness lies and time is running out for the Reds to solve that defensive problem.
Klopp has introduced Karius in place of Simon Mignolet among the many changes he's made to this Liverpool side. Joel Matip has found a new home at Anfield while Nathaniel Clyne continues to shine at right back.
Sterner tests to follow
He will count on players like Coutinho and Matip to lead the deadly pack as a first Premier League trophy since 1990 is on the cards. The pain of failing to pick up a trophy last season despite making the Europa League and League Cup finals could trigger the thirst for success this season.
With sterner tests to follow after Arsenal and Chelsea have rediscovered their mojo following the defeats to Liverpool and games against Manchester City and trickier games against weaker sides, Klopp knows the sustainability of his praiseworthy system and philosophy will be put to test more than ever this season.

The critically-acclaimed dance drama Ghosts after the play by Henrik Ibsen by the Norwegian national Ballet.
How many lies can a person tolerate? This is the question asked by Henrik Ibsen's drama "Ghosts", which has been transformed into a ballet by theatre director Marit Moum Aune and choreographer Cina Espejord in a new production by the Norwegian National Ballet.
Oswald Alving returns from a bohemian existence in Paris to a small-town life on a Norwegian fjord. A newly-built orphanage is to be dedicated to his father's memory, ten years after his death. Mrs Alving welcomes her long-awaited son home, but gradually uncovers the secrets that weigh heavily upon the family. In Ghosts, figures of the past and present dance side by side.

Romantic blokes needed
Taking part in Taranaki on a Date was a piece of cake, eligible bachelor Reuben Doyle says.
Round two of Daily News reporter Jo Moir's dating project is under way but in order to keep it going, more eligible bachelors are needed.
After four very successful dates the call has gone back out and date number three, Reuben, is encouraging Taranaki blokes to get involved.
"All I had to do was send in a profile with my photo, an inventive idea for a date and provided you are not a creep you will get the call-up like I did," he said.
"Taranaki on a Date is not only an outstanding opportunity to accompany the fetching Jo Moir for an evening, but a chance to do your bit as proud Taranaki residents and showcase our province's many hidden treasures."
Reuben says if given the chance he would definitely take part again.
"Jo is down to earth and also very gracious so I was at ease from start to finish and our date was full of fun and frivolities."
The idea is simple. Send Jo your details (name, age, job, where you're from), a photo and an idea for a date.
There's no limit, within reason, to what that date could be and if your idea cuts the mustard with Jo you'll find yourself part of Taranaki on a Date.
The rules are few. You have to be ready to see your picture and basic details on the Taranaki Daily News website.
There will be a painless pre-date interview about your hopes and expectations for the date and after it's all over Jo will write about it.
"What I would like to stress is that this isn't a competition, and a low-cost or even free date is just as likely to impress me and all the other single girls out there reading about it," Jo said.
"The pre-date video really isn't a big deal and I can even send the questions to guys if that would make them more comfortable in front of the camera."
The point of Taranaki on a Date is to not only show off our top blokes but showcase our beautiful province while tackling the big issues of our dating culture and the do's and don'ts of showing a girl a good time.
Reuben says the feedback he received after taking part was "overwhelmingly positive".
"I have been inundated with comments and questions from across the globe, friends, family and work colleagues alike," he said.

The No. 01 Chip Gansssi Racing Lexus Riley of Scott Pruett, Memo Rojas, Dario Franchitti and Juan Pablo Montoya lead the 46th Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona with only six hours remaining in the 24-hour marathon. Despite the heavy cloud cover, the sun has risen and a great fight has continued to develop in Daytona Prototype and the GT categories.
Hour sixteen began under the safety car, due to the stricken No. 61 AIM Autosport Ford Riley. Two of the four DPs on the lead lap elected to pit. Ryan Hunter-Reay in the No. 91 Riley-Matthews Motorsports Pontiac Riley handed over to co-driver Marc Goossens while Jimmie Johnson relinquished the wheel of the No. 99 GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing Pontiac Riley to Jon Fogarty.
This gave AJ Allmendinger driving the No. 6 Michael Shank Racing Ford Riley the overall lead, ahead of the No. 01 Chip Ganassi Racing Lexus Riley of Dario Franchitti - both cars electing not to pit. Lap 440 saw the pack take the green, with still a very wet track.
Problems arose for Fogarty as he drove off-course, damaging the front nose of his Pontiac Riley. The defending DP Series champion came into pits for a new nose and rejoined still on the lead lap. However, he quickly went a lap down thanks to a hard-charging Allmendinger.
Franchitti took over the lead on lap 452 when Allmendinger came in for routine service. Meanwhile, the track began to slowly dry as the night turns to day, still under heavy cloud cover. Franchitti then pitted on lap 459, handing over to Scott Pruett. This gave the lead back to Allmendinger. Meanwhile, trouble struck the No. 9 Penske-Taylor Racing Pontiac Riley, which pitted due to high water temperatures.
The No. 60 Michael Shank Racing Lexus Riley stopped on-course, bringing out a full-course caution on lap 468. While under the yellow, Allmendinger and Fogarty elected to pit while Pruett did not. Therefore, the No. 01 took over control of the race. Two more cars went back on the lead lap, thanks to the yellow. The No. 23 Alex Job Racing Porsche Crawford and the No. 99 GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing Pontiac Riley of Fogarty both got their lap back.
Pruett led the field to the restart on lap 473, pulling out to a five- second lead over Ian James, who was now in the No. 6 MSR entry. Pruett kept his advantage over James with Fogarty in third and Patrick Long running in fourth.
AIM Autosport's day continued to worsen as Andrew Ranger suffered a tire puncture on the high-speed tri-oval portion of the circuit. The No. 61 Ford Riley pulled off track due to extensive damage to the rear and wing. The car was later retired.
Pruett pitted on lap 495, taking on slick tires. It came just a few moments before the yellow waved again. This time it was for the No. 09 Sprit of Daytona Porsche Fabcar, which spun at the Bus Stop Chicane. A number of frontrunners elected to pit, following Pruett's guide he made a few laps earlier.
The restart on lap 502 saw Pruett pull ahead, with Fogarty in second. The No. 99 machine used the advantage of traffic to reel in the leading Lexus Riley. But on lap 516, the yellow comes out again - this time for Pruett's teammate, Salvador Duran, who has spun and come to rest in turn 5. During the yellow, more teams pit and five DPs remained on the lead lap as the field went back to green at the end of hour 18.
In GT, it's continued to be a three-horse race, with the No. 70 SpeedSource Mazda RX-8 of Raphael Matos leading the way. He holds a one lap edge over the No. 67 TRG Porsche of Romain Dumas and Andy Lally, now in the No. 66 sister car - that is trying to limp home with overheating issues.

Survey Shows Muslim Men By and Large Approve of Honor Killing Wives
A new survey of Muslims in Egypt, Lebanon and Morocco — the last, a country of so-called moderate Islamic beliefs — shows that by and large, men are OK with killing wives for honor.
They're also, by and large, OK with raping their wives and beating them, when perceived necessary.
From the National Secular Society (thanks to Jihad Watch):
"A large-scale survey of views in Egypt, Lebanon, Morocco and Palestine has reported extensive anti-women views and widespread tolerance of domestic violence.
"The three countries and Palestine were selected to be broadly representative and 'to reflect the diversity of the region.' …
"The report, produced by International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES) found that "The majority of Egyptian men consider it their duty to protect the honour of women and girls in their family, and nearly three-fifths agree with honour killing in some circumstances. More than 90 per cent of men saw male honour as directly contingent on their female relatives' dress and behaviour".
"Just 45% of Egyptian men believed there should be laws "criminalizing domestic violence, including marital rape." And only 70% of Egyptian women agreed with this statement.
"43% of Egyptian Muslim men said they would approve of their son having multiple wives, though just 9.5% said they would approve of their daughter marrying a man who already had other wives.
"Only 6.6% of unmarried men said they "have no problem with marrying someone of a different religion", and a tiny 2.3% of unmarried Egyptian women said the same.
"Just 39% of Egyptian men approved of women serving as leaders of political parties, though 93% said they should be able to vote.
"60% of Moroccan men said "if a woman is raped, she should marry her rapist."
"62% of Moroccan men said "a woman should tolerate violence to keep the family together", and 38% agreed "there are times when a woman deserves to be beaten". Shockingly, 20% of Moroccan women agreed with this.
"The report collected anecdotes and accounts from men and women across the four countries surveyed, including many accounts of domestic violence."
It's Geller's tell all, her story - and it's every story.
It's what happens when you stand for freedom today.
The story of being hunted in America. Get it, read it, share it. It's mindblowing. Buy it. Now. Here.

Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association has a new people person. Jill Dunlop joined FFVA this month as its new manager of food safety and sustainability.
Dunlop will be responsible for providing support to FFVA members in developing and implementing food safety and sustainability programs. She also will provide training for and assistance with third-party audits as well as coordinating and conducting food safety and sustainability education and outreach.
In addition, Dunlop will provide support for other regulatory activities within FFVA's Industry Resources group headed by Dan Botts, vice president of industry resources. Those include development, implementation and measurement of members' Best Management Practices, Third Party Registrations Inc., Worker Protection Standard outreach and training, as well as crisis management related to food safety. And she will design, develop and implement GlobalGAP and GFSI food safety certification programs on behalf of membership.
"FFVA and its members are extremely fortunate to find someone with Jill's background and proven capabilities," said Mike Aerts, FFVA's director of production and supply chain management. "Her 'can do' approach and attitude toward food safety and sustainability will lead to high demand and repeated utilization by the membership."
The position was created in response to FFVA members' requests. "The growers had been asking for someone with a food safety background because they wanted someone to help guide them with their programs, especially the smaller growers who may not have an established program. So I'm here to help them get started," Dunlop said.
Her goals are twofold. "One of my priorities is staying up to date on federal food safety requirements," Dunlop said. "The government is creating a long list of regulations regarding food safety, and I need to convey all that back to the growers. It's important to make sure they're following the law."
I'm a people person. I've never met a stranger" – Jill Dunlop
Another priority is keeping up with the demands of the growers' customers, Dunlop said. "A lot of the auditing they're doing is customer-driven. So I think it's also important to help them with that piece of it. If they're going to sell to five different customers they have to understand each customer's requirements. I'm here to help them with questions such as 'how am I going to minimize the amount of auditing I have to do? Is there one I could do that would appease all five of those people?' "
Dunlop spent five years as food safety manager for FFVA producer member SunnyRidge Farm/Dole Berry Company in Winter Haven, responsible for the southeastern United States and Latin America. Before that she was a researcher at the University of Florida's Citrus Research and Education Center in Lake Alfred.
"I have a lot of knowledge about the different types of audits out there and which are acceptable by which customers, so I can help if a grower/shipper is going through multiple audits. I can offer suggestions as to which auditing program would work best for what they're doing," Dunlop said.
Dunlop is no stranger to FFVA. While at SunnyRidge Farm/Dole, she was a member of the association's environmental and pest management committee. "I chose that committee because I was working with our Sunnyridge growers, and I thought it was good to be knowledgeable about what was going on in the farming inputs area. I was the person they would come to for help, mainly for the food safety programs, but also if they had questions about fertilizing, pest control and things like integrated pest management. I'd be that person who would help get them the resources they needed to help them make decisions."
Dunlop looks forward to getting to know FFVA's members. "I'm a people person. I've never met a stranger. I really like working with people and helping them," she said. And she appreciates the challenge of unraveling the intricacies of an effective food safety program. "I enjoy taking something that's difficult to understand – with a lot of weird language – and relaying it in understandable terms. I hope that even if the growers don't like the overwhelming aspects of food safety requirements, that they will like me. I like to make something that's intimidating fun. A lot of times the paperwork is crazy, and the checklist is long, so it's easy to get overwhelmed," she said.
A graduate of Elon College in North Carolina with a bachelor of science degree in environmental studies, Dunlop lives in Winter Haven with her husband, Jeff, and two children — a 13-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son. She grew up in Clearwater.
"We're pleased to have Jill on board," FFVA President Mike Stuart said. "Food safety is not only a priority for Florida's specialty crop producers – it's part of their culture. Adding Jill to our staff will allow FFVA to more closely assist our members in their food safety and sustainability efforts."
If you're an FFVA producer member who would like to set up a meeting with Dunlop to discuss your food safety program, contact her by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 321 214-5200.

St Abbs Head, Berwickshire
Britain has an amazing coastline full of variety. In a few miles the landscape can change from wide sandy beaches backed by a rolling dunescape of marram grass to rocky headlands, low exposed cliffs and beaches full of boulders. Nowhere is this more evident than in the short stretch of coast from Bamburgh to St Abbs Head.
We joined the Berwickshire coastal path at the fishing village of St Abbs and wandered the well trodden route along the cliff edge to the lighthouse at St Abbs Head. The day was bright although not continuously sunny and the wind blew from a cold north easterly direction. The surf pounded onto the rocks sending a fine mist into the air. Despite all the bluster it was a lovely day and the walk was invigorating. Being January the red cliffs were deserted, but in the summer these are teeming with seabirds who come here to nest and raise their young.
As the sun sank slowly towards the horizon it cast a gorgeous golden glow across the rolling landscape which was surprisingly green for the time of year. The cliff top was an amazing vantage point for this quintessentially British view.

EXCLUSIVE MP3: "Belt of Orion" by Wounded Lion (Forthcoming on In the Red)
Little known fact: In the Red Records--founded in 1991 and responsible for great releases from Vivian Girls, Jay Reatard, Black Lips, Strange Boys and Blank Dogs, etc.--is run by one man out of a garage in little old Eagle Rock.
Owner Larry Hardy occasionally gets help, but the guy has a singular vision and, for the most part, can't see it meshing with multiple personalities. Plus, the location of the label's HQ couldn't be more fitting: In the Red subsists on a steady diet of garage-rock, garage-punk, garage-blues and garage-pop.
Falling somewhere within that dingy, deadpan spectrum is young L.A. six-piece Wounded Lion, who will be releasing an eponymous full-length out on Hardy's label on April 27. This MP3 of "Belt of Orion" comes as an exclusive to West Coast Sound.

Frum Jew Murdered in Crown Heights
Ynet: Ephraim Klein, an ultra-Orthodox Jew from Crown Heights in Brooklyn, New York, was shot to death Tuesday on one of the neighborhood streets.The motive for the murder is not yet clear, but anti-Semitic sentiments may have played a part. The Chabad organization reported that the murder occurred at 2 a.m. New York time, when unknown assailants shot Klein as he was driving his car and then fled the scene; Klein lost control of his car as a result. Rescue teams were quick to arrive at the scene, only to determine the time of death. Klein's son was scheduled to be wed in a week's time, according to reports. The New York Police Department has launched an investigation into the murder, and detectives are looking into the possibility that the murder was anti-Semitic, but are not ruling out that Klein was an innocent victim of a local gang war. The incident is the third in recent weeks in which a Jew was murdered. In Tashkent, Uzbekistan, the rabbi of the local synagogue, Avraham Hacohen, was murdered; his family claims the murder was anti-Semitic. In France, Parisian Jew Ilan Halimi was kidnapped and brutally murdered. ------------------------------------------------------- NY1: Police say a man was found shot dead in his car after the vehicle careened into several parked cars on a Brooklyn street in Crown Heights early Tuesday morning. Frederick Klein, 47, was shot in the arm and chest as he was moving his Dodge Caravan for alternate side of the street parking. The minivan slammed into several parked cars on Carroll Street, before coming to a stop. Jewish Community leaders tell NY1 Klein leaves behind three children, including a son who's supposed to get married next week. "He was a very good person, a kind person, always was helping anyone in the community, was always smiling and he was a good person," said a Jewish Community Leader in the area Abarahim Lidar. "People are very, very angry because it's been very, very quiet and we're not looking for this," said Chanina Sperlin of the Crown Heights Jewish Council. Police aren't sure what the motive was for the shooting and so far there have been no arrests. The Crown Heights Jewish community Council has offered up a 10-thousand-dollar reward for information.

Oklahoma vs. Kansas prediction and game preview. Projecting who wins the game between the Sooners and Jayhawks.
Oklahoma vs. Kansas Game Preview
When: Saturday, October 29 – 7:00 p.m. ET
Where: Memorial Stadium, Norman, OK
Broadcast: FS1
Oklahoma isn't working its way back into the playoff picture, despite what's currently being suggested. But the Sooners are very much alive for a second straight Big 12 title. The Sooners have rallied back from a sluggish 1-2 start to win four straight league games, the latest a 66-59 shootout with Texas Tech that was the perfect embodiment of their 2016 identity. That streak ought to reach six with upcoming games against Kansas and Iowa State. The Jayhawks have no doubt improved under second-year coach David Beaty, but in the less visible ways that don't impact the record. KU has lost 20 straight games versus FBS opponents.
What To Know About Oklahoma
The Sooners aren't playing much defense this season, yielding 37 points per game. It's a good thing home is the Big 12, where defense most definitely does not win championships. Oklahoma is moving the ball about as well as anyone in the country these days, averaging 50 points during the four-game winning streak. Baker Mayfield is back in Heisman contention, Dede Westbrook has been the nation's most explosive receiver of the past month and Joe Mixon rushed for 263 yards in his first start after Samaje Perine was injured. Plus, the O-line has taken a quantum leap since some early season struggles.
What to Know About Kansas
The Jayhawks' peak thus far came in a one-point loss to TCU on Oct. 8. Otherwise, it's been a steady flow of lopsided affairs. The defense has shown heart around the likes of safety Fish Smithson and defensive end Dorance Armstrong, but this team lacks the personnel to derail Oklahoma in Norman. Beaty switched quarterbacks last week, handing the ball to junior Montell Cozart who did some early damage last week against Oklahoma State. Cozart must get the ball into the hands of top receivers Steven Sims and LaQuvionte Gonzalez to exploit a porous Sooner secondary that's given up 22 touchdown passes.
Offense: Oklahoma. Mayfield, Westbrook and either Perine or Mixon give the Sooners one of the best set of triplets in America.
Defense: Push. Yeah, the Sooner D is every bit as leaky as the Jayhawks, who have actually been better against the pass and at getting to the quarterback.
Special Teams: Oklahoma. Both teams are having special teams issues, but Sooners possess the better leg in Austin Seibert.
Coaching: Oklahoma. Stoops is the premier Big 12 coach, while Beaty is in the embryonic stages of his development as a head coach.
Intangibles: Oklahoma. Sooners are on a serious roll. Kansas hasn't won a road game … this decade.
Matchup To Watch
Sims and Gonzalez vs. Oklahoma CBs Jordan Thomas and Jordan Parker
The only way this game is close after halftime is if Sims and Gonzalez are able to consistently make plays downfield. They should get their opportunities versus Thomas and Parker, a true freshman trying to bring improvement to the Sooner pass defense.
Oklahoma vs. Kansas Betting Odds
Spread: Oklahoma -40.5
Over/Under: No line as of post
Oklahoma vs. Kansas Prediction
Having seen the dark side of unmet expectations last month, there'll be no letup in the Sooners. Beaty will have his kids ready to compete, a theme that's marked his second team in Lawrence. But the Jayhawks have neither the defensive stoppers to sidetrack Mayfield & Co. nor the offensive playmakers to keep pace. Oklahoma will coast to a comfortable fifth win in a row in a game that'll be decided shortly before halftime.
Oklahoma vs. Kansas Score Prediction: Oklahoma 52, Kansas 17

Grey Hair Coverage
Step Up to Brilliant Grey Coverage
Looking for 100% grey coverage? Professional hair color may be your answer!
What if your hair color looked richer, more vibrant and covered grey better than it ever has before? What if your hair color outshined, outlasted and outperformed any hair color you've used before?
Okay, let's face it, you'll always get the best results from an experienced professional colorist.
Well, you can! Professional hair color produces more professional-looking results! With professional, permanent hair color, you can get 100% grey coverage with brilliant shine, conditioning, body and volume say New-York City's colorist Albert Amin of Albert Amin Salon.
You've got a grey hair! Do you freak out? Or yank that sucker and move on? For a lot of people it's a combination of both.
Plenty of people start getting grey hairs young, young enough to not feel the societal pressure to be ashamed of dreaded "signs of aging" breathing down their necks. And with the increase in hair color, there is an increase in women who go blissfully ignorant of grey hair as they're really not sure what their natural hair color is anymore.
But, for some, it can be upsetting. New-York City's Stylist Albert Amin often gets questions from his clients about how to hide greys most often from their friends with darker hair, for whom a grey is more obvious and more difficult to hide or pass off. When a quick yank is no longer a viable maintenance strategy, there are a few courses you can take if grey hair is just not something you're ready to embrace.
RE YOU READY FOR GREY HAIR COVERAGE?Grey hairs come from a lack of melanin in the pigment of our hair. It is associated with age, but it can also be genetic or the result of natural chemical changes or exposure to environmental pollution. There's no way to naturally increase melanin pigment, so it's a game of hiding the grey if that's your choice. We'll work from the least intensive to most intensive methods.
When it comes to hair color, you basically have 3 options: highlighting, single-process color or double process. Here are a few tips to help you sort out the best option for your hair.
To Color or to Highlight, That's the Question
If you have a great base hair tone, you're better off with highlights. You don't want to mess with nature; what you want to do is enhance it. If your base color washes out your skin tone or is "blah," consider single-process color. Single-process color is cheaper than highlights.
Highlights look best when the stylist uses at least two different shades. Ask for more around your face, they can brighten your complexion.
"With highlights, your colorist should be using more than one color, not just bleach. Great highlights should be layered to produce tonal variations. There should be lights, mediums and darks to create depth and translucence in the hair. Highlighting should be like painting a masterpiece and you can't do that with just one color," says stylist Albert Amin at Albert Amin Salon of Upper East Side.
Keep in mind that due to root growth, all-over coloring will need to be touched up every four to eight weeks, while highlights can last up to two or three months. Ask your stylist about a gloss treatment following your color. Gloss boosts color and makes hair shinier.
You're Going for Highlights, But Which Kind?
There are basically 4 types of highlights: basic foil highlights, balayage or "hair painting," chunking or "piecing" and lowlights.
Foil highlights add strands of color to hair. You can get up to 5 different shades in hair for a more natural look.
Balayage, or "hair painting," allows the stylist to add natural stripes of color to hair in large or smaller swaths. This is best for women with a great base color who want to go just a couple shades lighter. You won't need to get roots touched up as much with baliage as you do foils.
Lowlighting allows the stylist to add darker shades to hair. This gives color more contrast and dimension.

text: Okay here goes: I have this this really old CD player from 1988 and this DVD player from back when they were new. The Cd player is a Pioneer PD-M450 changer with 6 slots and the DVD player is this Proscan model that came around back whenever DVD players were new. I am planning to upgrade to a new cd player in the future, but for now I want to find out which one of these two would be good for me now. So does the old cd player compare to the old dvd player? Which one do you think would be best for CD PLAYBACK ONLY? I am asking because I "think" that the old cd player sounds better. It seems more coherent and less harsh in the high end. The low end might be just a little lighter but overall I think it is better. Can anyone validate my simple analysis? By the way, the old cd player is a totall tank and has lasted the last 16 years(My age too) perfectly fine. The DVD player hasn't been so lucky. It is kinda glitchy and freezes sometimes. One thing that sucks though is that the old cd player has no remote, but the dvd player does.

Advice to Management
Rethink compensation strategies with global market in mind (Developers can work from Bozeman for firms anywhere in the world). RNT needs to be more competitive with other markets.
The company hires the absolute best talent on the market. I have read reviews by some that interpret this as arrogance but, in today's economy, every hire-opportunity has to be strategic. I appreciate a company that takes the talent-recruitement process seriously.
There is a tremendous amount of training available for our product-set. I appreciate that the company will be lending more focus to management, communication and soft-skill training in the coming year to compliment the product training focus that exists today.
Advice to Management
Management tiers may be getting too "deep". Considering flattening some organizations so top-brass is able to stay closer to the work/client-level relationships.
Compensation. happy customers and good location.
Hard to ramp up. Not much good training. Old timers have big edge.
Advice to Management
Care more about employees. Be more aggressive in marketplace. Don't be so selfish.

Many lead developers and managers have been promoted from within, they know the code base inside and out.

Many lead developers and managers have been promoted from within, they have very little/poor management skills.
Many leads and managers are very buddy/buddy, it leads to a culture where you can't complain to upper management because they are personal friends with the management between yourself and them self.
Advice to Management
Encourage middle management to keep personal and business relationships separate. Executive level management encourages an open door policy, but in reality this doesn't work due to the relationships between middle managers.

RightNow employees practice trust as an efficiency measure and it works. There are few barriers to getting your job done. Innovation is encouraged. And the best thing about RightNow is how flexible they are about time - PTO is reasonable, but more importantly, hours are flexible for people with children, pets, volunteer commitments, etc.
You need to be extremely ambitious to get ahead - but that cultivates an environment of excellence. No real complaints. The best people at RightNow are at the top or on their way there - where they should be.
Advice to Management
The only advice I can think of is to work harder to align the reality of the corporate culture with the list of RightNow's "values". Often I don't feel we are "living" all of these values. We live by "Rid the World", but I think we forget the more specific values.

In theory a good company with a good product.
- All Senior Management are "Yes men/women" to CEO
- If you aren't in Bozeman and aren't favored by management, you might as well leave
- Favoritism is very apparent in the Sales organization
Advice to Management
CEO needs to step down, he doesn't believe in marketing and has no idea how to grow the company to the next level.
