Editor's note: Gabe Fedor grew up in Cleveland Heights and graduated from Gilmour High School in 2014. He was an intern with Fresh Water from May through August.
A few months ago, I headed off to college for the first time. As I thought about my new four-year residence at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, I also began to think about what it was like to grow up as part of the millennial generation in Cleveland. This unique place has had a major impact on me, and as I leave it for the first time, I'm realizing how large that impact is.
It's officially no secret that Cleveland is a city on the rise, one that's shedding its rusty reputation. Yet of course, it wasn't always like that. When my generation was coming of age in the 2000s, the city was hitting some of its hardest times during the Great Recession. Just as we were at the age of exploring our unique place of birth, Cleveland was having a hard time just staying afloat. And now, right as we're leaving, it's experiencing a long-awaited renaissance.
Rust Belt kids off to college are not the oldest, wisest or smartest Clevelanders, but we do carry with us a unique perspective, one that involves seeing Cleveland in its most downtrodden state yet also full of potential. In high school, my peers made negative comments about Cleveland constantly, saying things like "There's nothing to do here!" or "Ohio is nothing but corn fields."
Yet something's changed. The desire to diss Cleveland at every opportunity is being replaced with enamor for the city. There's new energy here, and millennials are changing their views.
But will this newly positive outlook on Cleveland be enough to bring our generation back after college?
What it's going to take
After talking with a number of my peers and discussing population changes in Cleveland with Richey Piiparinen, a senior research associate at the
Center for Population Dynamics
at the Levin College of Urban Affairs at CSU, it became obvious to me that if the development in Cleveland stays on its course, then those leaving for college, including myself, will return down the road.
What are the things that will bring us back? They include career opportunities, redeveloped neighborhoods and urban amenities, and an environment that's attractive for raising a family.
These factors are just beginning to come together, which has led to a 23 percent spike in residents ages 25-34 with a college degree in the Cleveland metro, according to
new research
by Piiparinen. That's a huge "brain gain," adds Piiparinen, who believes that the number shows how Cleveland is truly redefining itself.
Young people from my generation who still have a negative mindset about Cleveland actually don't reflect the prevailing attitudes, Piiparinen maintains. "It's generational – what you hear in the house is what you are," he says. He explains that some kids will always "feel much more comfortable in their bubble and won't want to leave it to move to Cleveland."
As I thought about what Piiparinen told me, I reflected back on my suburban-dwelling peers who expressed negative attitudes towards the city. Are the millennials who are more comfortable in the enclave of the suburbs really the outliers in an otherwise progressive-thinking group of young people?
I spoke with five peers to see what they thought about eventually moving back here. Most said they felt increasingly positive about Cleveland, and they all said they would have a strong urge to move back here at some point in their lives.
Paige Anton of Shaker Heights, now a freshman at Colorado College in Colorado Springs, says that "there are more things going on here than meets the eye." She'd love to move back to Cleveland if future job opportunities are available in her chosen field of neuroscience.
Will Sullivan of Cleveland Heights, a freshman at Ohio University in Athens majoring in business, explained that for him, family would be a large draw to come back to Cleveland.
The city's newfound energy, exemplified for many by the return of LeBron, is also a motivator. Doug Weisman of Shaker Heights, a business major at the University of Arizona in Tucson, said that new development and the great Cleveland "vibe" would lure him back. At college, he talks up Cleveland with his friends from around the country, countering stereotypes by saying it's a great place to live.
Feeling the love for CLE
Piiparinen explains why my generation of 90s millennials has recently sent so much positivity and love back to CLE: "The Millennials born in the 90s weren't exposed to Cleveland in its heyday, so they don't carry the baggage. They aren't bogged down by the change of the past."
One way to look at it is that millennials born in the 90s simply don't have very high expectations. It might sound bad, but the bar was set pretty low when we were growing up. Yet that results in a positive outlook on Cleveland's future, more so than with older generations. Every little development that is added to Cleveland is a huge step in the right direction. We aren't constantly comparing the city to the days when "Higbee's was always bustling."
Many Cleveland neighborhoods are improving, and we're picking up on that. The city has taken huge steps to create the amenities that will attract college graduates to live in and around the city. For example, Cleveland previously had very outdated public spaces, yet plans are in motion to fix that.
Public Square
will receive a major renovation in the coming years. More green space, an embedded concert hill, a reflecting pool, and a cafe are all planned for the makeover – this is a world away from the concrete-filled, car-congested square of my youth.
This is just one example. The development of new apartments, nightlife, arts and culture and retail amenities are also helping attract new residents. Yet undoubtedly, when my four years at college draw to an end, there will only be one thing my mind: a job. What brings young people to cities most is opportunity.
While my peers didn't express concern about lack of opportunity in Cleveland after college, they all agreed a job would be the largest factor influencing their return. Yet they were optimistic given the gradual return of Northeast Ohio's economy. They had the feeling that finding a job pertaining to their interests in neuroscience, business, and economics would not be difficult.
Maintaining momentum
We know that 90s Millennials are beginning to feel the love for Cleveland. But is this positive outlook naive? Can we really support all these college-educated young people moving back?
In a report titled "
A Newer Geography of Jobs
: Where Workers with Advanced Degrees are Concentrating Fastest," Piiparinen shows that Cleveland already is supporting a growing young population. In fact, in recent years, Northeast Ohio's high-skill workforce has grown at a rate that ranks fifth in the nation, according to the study. That's right up there with San Francisco.
So what does this have to do with Rust Belt kids looking for jobs in four years? It means that knowledge jobs in Cleveland are being added at a rapid rate. The knowledge economy is growing here. So by the time we're straggling out of our dorm rooms for the last time, there will hopefully be fresh opportunities.
There are less hopeful indicators, of course. Cleveland has been continually shrinking and losing residents every year to more popular destinations like the Sun Belt. Yet Piiparinen writes in a Plain Dealer editorial that Clevelanders shouldn't look through rust-colored glasses: "From 2000 to 2012, Greater Cleveland gained one college-educated resident for every undereducated resident lost. The metro added 40,000 people with college degrees from 2006 to 2012, with 41 percent of those gains coming from the 25- to 34-year-old age group."
"The problem here is that population growth is an ineffective, broad brush measure when trying to understand regional underlying dynamics," he adds. While the numbers showing that Cleveland is shrinking are undoubtedly important, he believes the fact that college educated, young people are moving back to the city tells the story of the direction that Cleveland is headed.
On a personal level, I see the trend of boomerangs moving back unfolding within my own family. Two years ago, my brother and his wife, who are in their early 30s, left Boston to return to Cleveland. Both had great careers in Boston, so why move back to a city where, according to the old narrative, residents just hop on Interstate 90 every day to escape it?
Because there was opportunity here and they wanted a place to start a family. My brother, like me, had fond memories of Cleveland. He loves the teams, people and places. He was able to quickly find a job in his desired field, which was the final push he needed to move back. His wife also quickly found a job advising medical startups. Both fit into Piiparinen's 23 percent "brain gain" of people with a college degree or higher who are moving to the City of Cleveland.
A generation of 90s millennials who grew up hearing the city called "The Mistake on the Lake" now have an increasingly positive outlook on the future of the city. It's this unique historic perspective, combined with a sense of fresh possibilities, the revitalization of city neighborhoods, the lure of family and maybe even the thought of winning a championship that will bring us back to Cleveland for good.

SHANE Watson has led another strong Australian batting performance with a blazing century, raising hopes ahead of next weeks first Test at Trent Bridge.
The top four batsmen all passed 50 as Australia made 4-340 on a rain curtailed opening day of the four day match against Worcester.
There were continuing fears about how the batting in the post Ponting, Hussey era would stand up on this tour after the recent disaster of India, where Australia lost 4-0.
However a strong victory over Somerset last week and another impressive performance yesterday, all be it against modest opposition, has set an optimistic tone.
A revitalised Watson smashed his century before lunch as Australia's new opening partnership proved an instant success.
Watson made 109 from just 111 balls with 14 fours and two sixes while Rogers was dismissed for a compact 75 scored in 127 balls with 12 fours.
Watson and Rogers had an opening partnership of 170 inside 35 overs just a day after new coach Darren Lehmann confirmed the pair would bat at the top of the order in the Test.
Watson's brutal innings yesterday followed his 90 in Australia's previous match against Somerset with the all-rounder celebrating his return as an opening batsman.
Little more than a week after Mickey Arthur was sacked as coach to be replaced by Lehmann and Michael Clarke stood down as a selector, Australia has gathered remarkable momentum.
A team that was supposed to be in crisis easily accounted for Somerset last week and has began its final lead-up match before the Test series in rollicking fashion.
Ed Cowan, batting down a position at three, and Clarke, who moved up to four, both batted sedately until tea before Clarke lifted his scoring after the break.
The captain was run out for 62 from 88 balls following a tight call from Cowan, who was also run out when he stumbled and fell taking a single. He made 58 in almost three hours.
Surprisingly it was just Watson's 18th century in 114 first class matches and his first in 51 innings going back almost three years to his 126 in a Test against India at Mohali.
A star in short form cricket, Watson has had trouble converting good starts into big scores but yesterday he was in full flight, charging well into the 90s with three fours in five balls.
He was particularly destructive as he continued to relish his move back up the order, driving and cutting strongly.
So sweetly did Watson hit the ball that a comfortable flick off his legs cleared the fieldsman at deep forward square for six.
His second six was a mighty straight hit that brought up Australia's hundred well inside a run a minute.
Watson's destructive batting forced Worcester to push sweepers back on the square boundaries either side of the wicket in the opening half hour.
Rogers continued the exceptional form he had displayed with Middlesex earlier in the English season. He remains the leading scorer in division one of county cricket with 790 runs at 66 including two big hundreds.
At age 35 the left hander played his one and only Test against India five years ago but is destined for an extended run in this series.

Discussion in 'Fiat OEM Spares & Accessories' started by J Ravi, Jun 2, 2010.
Here you go buddy. FIAT illuminated Sill Plates
Hey pankaj you are the owner of 99RPM right ?
But these have got FIAT written on them. What about the ones with Linea on them ??
illuminated sill plates came only with FIAT/TJET written on them! where did you see the ones with Linea written?
Guys thanks for the posts.
Can these be used for the rear doors as well? Just found in the description that this is for the front doors.
No buddy. These are pretty long and cannot be used for the rear doors. The rear door sill curvature is too much for a sill plate. You might want to consider sticker for that. I think J.Ravi got sill plates for the rear doors as well somewhere in Chennai. You may want to check his thread. From the pics at least I got an impression that they are more ornamental, than functional.
I've seen Linea and Punto kick-plates installed in their respective cars. Now that you ask, I come to think of it that I've only seen it in Puntos. And if you get kick plates with punto written on them, then I am sure one should get Linea ones too.
those are simple ones. not illuminated.
Oh my bad, I forgot to mention earlier. I was talking about illuminated plates only. I've seen illuminated kick plates.
I have aftermarket Illuminated Sil Plates and they come in 2 sizes
Longer for the front doors
Shorter for the rear doors
P.S: Asusual, Sorry for the poor photography.

Basically anything post-ROM has an issue where when I start navigation, even when it does pick up a GPS signal and try to navigate it has a good chance of freezing up completely. It seems to happen unpredictably, but with increasing frequency. It will even happen just driving along doing nothing but letting the app guide me. It will just lock up cold. Sometimes the screen goes blank. The only way to get the device to respond at all is to pop the battery out momentarily. Naturally this renders the GPS all but useless. Has anyone else run into this issue? Anyone found a solution?

When it comes to getting in shape, most of us could take a few pointers from Adam Berliner '02. Over the past two years, he's lost more than 140 pounds with the help of a nutritionist and the LifeStyles program at Carleton's Recreation Center, which pairs faculty and staff members or alumni with personal trainers.
As Berliner's trainer, Thad Caron keeps him on track with a range of physical activities—including the Boot Camp–style exercises that are Caron's specialty—flavored with encouragement and quips. "Good trainers aren't there to be judgmental," Berliner says. "They know how to push you past what you would do on your own."
He may be in the best shape of his life, but Berliner's workouts are still far from easy. "Once Thad sees that I'm comfortable, he finds a way to modify an exercise to make it more difficult," Berliner says. "I may hate Thad during the workout, but I love him afterward when I see the results."
The Voice asked Berliner to weigh in on the Carl Quiz.
Profession: Assistant professor of mathematics at St. Olaf College
Why work out with a trainer?: On my own, I would stay within the same limits. Thad keeps pushing me to do a little more each time.
Favorite Thadism: "Somebody's gotta do it and it's not me!"
Biggest surprise: My body changed faster than my mind. Sometimes I forget that other people see me as I am now, not as the old me.
Tips for weight loss success:
- Tailor your daily routine around exercise. Instead of sleeping in, I go to the gym early in the morning.
- Don't try to do it all at once. Start with some physical activity a few times a week. Then go from there.
- Track what you eat. I use a free app called MyFitnessPal.
- Eat a healthy food that you really love every day.
- Have people hold you accountable. My appointments with a nutritionist and a trainer force me to stay on track.
Guilty pleasure: I still eat sweets, but I limit my exposure to them. When I do eat candy or cookies, I only have one instead of a handful.
Why you love Lifestyles: The LifeStyles program shows that Carleton cares not just about knowledge, but also about overall well-being. The Rec center staff is friendly and supportive, and the facility offers lots of workout options. My friends are all jealous.
Weight loss inspiration: The Biggest Loser. I am a big fan of reality TV competition shows, and watching people lose weight on this show over the years slowly convinced me that I could lose weight, too.

I've been coming across a lot of interesting articles and presentations on various aspects of visual thinking lately, but just haven't had the time to pursue them to the degree I'd like. So, here's a round-up of things, for myself as much as anyone else, to pursue at some point when I have more free time.
A Tour Through the Visualization Zoo
Jeffrey Heer, Michael Bostock and Vadim Ogievetsky of Stanford University wrote a nice article awhile back that I've just come across that "provides a brief tour through the "visualization zoo," showcasing techniques for visualizing and interacting with diverse data sets."

The beautiful Tamia is back with new album, 'Beautiful Surprise', and she recently sat down with Singersroom.com to discuss the new project. She speaks on her album, filming the music video with husband, Grant Hill, appreciating her fans and just what has made her marriage last for 13 years.
Beautiful Surprise Video… The video with Grant…we had a good time actually. He's super laid back, I wanna say this was maybe one of the first videos he'd really been on set because its always been during the season or I fly to LA to do the video so I think he has a new appreciation of how long it takes to do a video.
Fans Expectation… I always try and give to a project that I totally one hundred percent believe in. I never try and put out an album where I feel like there's two good songs…You know, I have a connection with every song that I put on the project, so I hope what they're expecting from me is consistency.
Healthy Relationship… I do think what works in one relationship may not work in the next, but I think that it's important in any relationship…friendship is communication. Being able to communicate with the other person about how your feeling, what's going on, not forcing the other person to be a mind reader, sort of connecting with each other and you can only do that when you open up on the most intimate levels.
Check out more of what Tamia had to say below.
It's clear she's still very much in love with her husband the way she gushes about him. That's a beautiful thing after 15 years of being together wouldn't you say?
Tamia's album hits stores tomorrow, August 28th. Make sure to get your copy.

When you choose a new cosmetic dentist in Sebright On, you are making an important decision for you and your family. You are entrusting care for a key part of your overall wellness to someone with whom you've had no prior experience.
Top rated dentist in Sebright On
What should I expect during the first exam?
The answer should include a conversation with the dentist about your general and oral health history and concerns, including information about any diseases or conditions you have and any medications you are taking. They should also mention that you'll be given a thorough examination of all teeth, including any restorative work you've had done; a thorough check of gum health with a periodontal probe; a check for signs of oral cancer; and x-rays, as needed.
General dentists often use the monikers "cosmetic dentist" or "family dentistry" to indicate that they offer cosmetic dental treatments or can treat your whole family but these aren't officially recognized dental specializations. The dental specialists recognized by the American Dental Association include pedodontists, also known as a pediatric dentist (kid dentist), endodontists (root canal specialists), oral and maxillofacial surgeons (tooth extraction and oral surgery), prosthodontists (restorative specialists), periodontists (gum disease treatment specialists) and for dental braces, an orthodontist (bite specialist).
Finding the right cosmetic dentists in Sebright On for you and your family can be as taxing as finding a parking space in a crowded shopping center. With thousands of dentists practicing all over the country with their own specializations, specific locations and office hours. How do you narrow your search down to that one dentist who's right for you?
When you're looking for a new Orthodontist in Sebright On, you're searching for more than someone to just clean your teeth. Orthodontists and dentists both help patients improve their oral health, but in different ways. Dentistry is a broad medical specialty that deals with the teeth, gum, nerves, and jaw, while orthodontics is a specialty within dentistry that focuses on correcting bites, occlusion, and the straightness of teeth.

Dental insurance is intended to cover a portion of your dental treatment charges. Most dental patients are not well informed about the facility of dental insurance. Even health and human service specialists do not fully understand dental insurance policies.
The amount of coverage you are offered depends on your contract with the insurance company. What your dental insurance company pays depends on many factors including deductibles, maximum allowable benefits, substitution clauses, and exclusion clauses.
Orthodontic dental insurance will cover a part of your orthodontic treatment expenses. Orthodontics generally deals with the corrective surgeries and treatments required to correct deformities of teeth arrangements. Treatments that involve orthodontics are quite expensive.
Atlanta Dental Group and Pacific Dental Insurance are some of the leading insurance companies that cover orthodontic dental insurances.
Orthodontic dental insurance is intended to cover both routine as well as not-so-routine dental works. Dentistry involving dental implants, root canal treatments, and orthodontic braces can get to be quite expensive.
Orthodontic dental insurance will enable you to take care of all your dental problems as they arise. This also covers oral surgery for recessed gums or the removal of wisdom teeth. If your teeth need to be re-aligned for health reasons, then the cost falls under orthodontic dental insurance.
Some of the plans of orthodontic dental insurance will not cover cosmetic surgery procedures, as they are not health related. But some orthodontic dental insurance plans do cover a part of the expenses.
It is always wise decision to take up orthodontic dental insurance policies as these treatments cost you a lot more than regular dental procedures. These policies will help you save a lot of money. You can show the policies to the physicians and get your treatments done.
Though most of the insurance companies offer orthodontic insurance policies for all ages, there are some companies that will limit treatments to patients up to the ages of 19 or 21.
With dental insurance, all you need to worry about is making your regular trips to the dentist. You can have your teeth taken care of without worrying too much about the cost; your dental insurance will cover it.

When you think of orthodontic treatment you usually imagine a pre-teen wearing brace. However, orthodontics encompasses a wider range of treatments and sometimes is most effective with children between ages 7 and 9. The American Association of Orthodontists advises that children should have an orthodontic checkup no later than age seven. That's because some treatments are most effective if they're started at this age.
Studies shows that treatment at this stage is called Phase 1 mixed dentition (because it manages baby and permanent teeth) care. Treatment later in childhood, such as age 10 or 11, is called Phase 2 treatment." Phase 1 often includes straightening the permanent front teeth and making space for future permanent teeth. During Phase 1 orthodontists may also correct a jaw-growth problem, or bite problem such as an overbite or underbite.
Phase 1 treatment usually takes 12 to 18 months. This is followed by a supervisory phase of 18 to 30 months in which the orthodontist monitors growth of permanent teeth and ensures that the correction remains in place. If a child needs Phase 2 treatment, it usually is no longer than 6 to 18 months.
According to some studies, there are several reasons an orthodontist might consider Phase 1 treatment for your child.
- Jaw Growth: The upper jaw bones start to fuse around age 8, so some procedures, especially expansion of the upper arch, should start at this age. If you wait, this might require jaw surgery later on. Expansion of the dental arch isn't always possible after age 13 in girls and 15 for boys.
- Less Need for Tooth Extraction: Between 7 and 9 the permanent teeth are starting to come in. If the teeth need extra space in the jaw, an orthodontist can help create that space. If you wait, it may necessitate removing permanent teeth.
- Less Need for Surgery: Early intervention can decrease the odds of a tooth becoming impacted or stuck and needing surgery. Orthodontists can also take care of other problems that might necessitate surgery later on.
- Correction of Harmful Habits: Habits such as tongue thrusting, pacifier use, mouth breathing, and thumb sucking can lead to problems later in life. Early intervention can prevent these problems.
- Improve Compliance: Younger children tend to be more compliant with treatment than pre-teens and teens. They are more likely to cooperate with treatments, such as wearing retainers, that require their participation.
- Set Up Phase 2 Treatment: Phase 1 early intervention can improve Phase 2 treatment's effectiveness and shorten treatment time. Starting treatment early also gives orthodontists two windows of opportunity to fix a problem. If Phase 1 cannot completely clear up an issue, Phase 2 treatment is available if necessary.
- Improve Appearance: Children with poorly aligned teeth might suffer psychologically. Improving facial aesthetics can increase their self esteem.

News story
Education for children with disabilities
- From:
- Department for International Development
- Part of:
- Education in developing countries
- Published:
- 17 October 2010
This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
Children with disabilities are much less likely to go to school in the developing world than children who do not have disabilities
Children with disabilities are much less likely to go to school in the developing world than children who do not have disabilities. The 2010 Education For All Global Monitoring Report entitled, "Reaching the marginalized" highlights the challenges the international community faces in realising the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) of universal primary education and gender parity in education. The education and gender Millennium Development Goals will not be achieved without addressing disability.
In response to this DFID has developed a Guidance Note on Education and Disability. This note has been developed through consultation with civil society organisations working directly with children with disabilities both in the UK and abroad, the note is intended for use by DFID staff in country, staff from partner governments and other development partners working in this field.
Guidance Note: Education for children with disabilities - Improving quality and access
The note aims to offer practical advice and tips on how to support children with disabilities to access education. It provides the following outcomes:
- synthesises current thinking
- signposts to available resources - research, case studies etc
- sets out options for mainstreaming disability and inclusive education including Value for Money options
- provides a contextual overview of key issues to consider when evaluating the relative strengths of the various options

Emma Watson Responds to '50 Shades of Grey' Rumors with a Sassy Tweet
You know the old cliche: if a furtive sociopolitical hacktivism group says something, it must be true. That's why the world was so ready to get on board with infamous hacker team Anonymous' revelation that Emma Watson would be taking the lead role in Focus Feature's developing film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey. Alongside fellow so-called purveyors of social justice M3du5a, Anonymous broke into the archives of German film studio Constantin, publicizing the association of the 22-year-old Harry Potter vet's name with the Fifty Shades project, thus provoking widespread conversation about whether or not Watson would be right for the part. And although the former Hermoine has as vigilant a fan base as one can muster without resorting to mass extortion, there are plenty who don't think Watson would be a good fit for the Fifty Shades "heroine" Anastasia Steele… Watson included.
RELATED: Emma Watson's 'Fifty Shades' Casting the Subject of Anonymous' Latest Hacking Job
On Sunday, the actress tweeted the following message in response to the rumors:
Who here actually thinks I would do 50 Shades of Grey as a movie? Like really. For real. In real life.
— Emma Watson (@EmWatson) March 17, 2013
… followed by a succinct, resounding:

RELATED: E.L. James' New Book Is a Blank Journal with Writing Tips (No, Really)
If you ask me, that's what really drove the point home. In conjunction with Fifty shades author E.L. James' affirmation that no actors have been cast yet, this news should provoke fans of the pop lit sensation to return to their buzzing imaginations to figure out who else might work for the part. To the folds of your brain, Shadesmiths. You've got some dream casting to do.

Hi friends, today is the day. I'm moving into school. This outfit was from the celebration for the end of my job however I worked an extra week so yesterday was my last day and today I'm moving into school. I'm honestly so tired right now and it's almost 5am and I have so much work to do but for some reason I can't seem to get it through my head that I'm moving into school tomorrow. School is so stressful and I don't think I'm ready for that level of anxiety again. I'm also getting grey hair tomorrow, I had originally wanted long silver-like hair but the hair I got is a darker grey and it's in two different shades. If you want to see how it looks look on instagram tomorrow afternoon and I'll probably post a selfie with some lame caption. My Etsy shop should be up soon so that's more exciting news and also please check out my poshmark because I'm selling so much stuff. And more positive news, FALL IS ALMOST HERE. *SHRIEKS* Sweaters, chunky boots, skirts and knee highs, I'm beyond excited. There will be fall post so you all should be excited too!

When Drake released "Wu-Tang Forever," a selection off his new album Nothing was the Same, some criticized him for the title, which is taken from Wu-Tang Clan's 1997 double-album, Wu-Tang Forever. In a recent interview with CRWN, presented by MySpace, Drake spoke about the response from the song.
"I did take a risk titling that song what it was," Drake said in the interview. "But for me, I'm always into paying homage…That's kind of what 'Wu-Tang Forever' is. I've always tried to pick a classic Hip Hop song and make it my own…I thought [the response] would have been worse than that, really, to be honest."
During the interview, Drake also spoke about appearing on a song with "all" of the members of Wu-Tang Clan.
"I've got a great piece with me and Wu-Tang Clan all rapping together again, which is dope," Drake said. "That's coming soon, definitely. It's on the way."
The song Drake is speaking about is rumored to be the remix to "Wu-Tang Forever," though Drake did not say specifically what "piece" the group would appear on.
Yesterday (September 24), Wu-Tang Clan's Inspectah Deck spoke with HipHopDX and denied participating on a remix to "Wu-Tang Forever," though he did confirm that other members were involved in making the remix to the song.
"The understanding that I had from the song was that we was supposed to get on it, not knowing if it was the remix or the original song," Inspectah Deck said in an exclusive interview with HipHopDX. "I believe it was the remix. We was supposed to get on it. Given to me, from RZA, he wanted all eight of us on it. So while we were in Amsterdam, we even booked studio time to go in and get on that song and that was the understanding that I was left with.
"I never made it on the song," Deck added. "Actually, I went back to the hotel. Late night, I left. From my understanding, [Method Man] got on the song, U-God, I think Masta Killah, Capp, not sure. But, I know that there were verses from the Clan on the song."
During the same exclusive interview with HipHopDX, Inspectah Deck also criticized Drake for titling his song "Wu-Tang Forever."
"I just felt it don't need to be 'Wu-Tang Forever,' Inspectah Deck said. "It should be called 'It's Yourz,' if that's the case. That's what the hook seems to be. That's what the main basis of the rhyme seems to be. So you can call it 'It's Yourz' and it would have the same impact. But to call it Wu Tang Forever'…unless the song is about the Clan like that, then it's cool. I'm like, 'Yo, if there's a remix coming out, it got brothers on it and you just wanted to leak this one first and then come back with the Clan in that strategy, that's not the understanding that brothers had in the beginning."
Drake Says Ghostface Killah Endorses Him As An Emcee
During his CRWN interview, Drake was also asked about the controversy and discussion surrounding "Wu-Tang Forever." While Inspectah Deck may disagree with the song's title, Drake says other members have extended praise for the Toronto rapper.
"I had the best moment of my life the other day," Drake said during his CRWN interview. "One of the best moments. Ghostface Killah called me. I don't want to out his business, but he was just so real about it that I've gotta tell this story because I'm proud. So, if he watches this, I'm sorry, but I've gotta tell this story. He was like, 'Yo, son, there's this guy on Twitter. He's been pretending to be me for a long time and talked down on you. But I just wanted to tell you, you're one of my favorite emcees.' To hear that from him, somebody who we've all looked up to for so long, it meant a lot."
Recently, Drake posted an image of himself with two Wu-Tang Clan members, Ghostface Killah and Raekwon. The image, found on his Instagram account, can be viewed below, followed by part 1 of Drake's CRWN interview.

The young lady said another EVO customer had come in with the same problem so it is apparently real at least here in Tucson, AZ. The fix is simple, push shutdown button and select airplane mode and turn off phone. Restart phone and turn off airplane mode and power-off phone. Turn phone on and Voilla! the 3G network is back.

Photographs are everywhere nowadays. They are on your phone, on the internet, in our scrapbooks, and on our walls. I specialize in photos that become part of your history. The images I create are more than. A portrait from Gretchen Willis Photography is more than a quick phone snap or a posed image in a mall studio or a print in a frame; it is a memory that can't be re-created. It is a bookmark of this chapter in your life.
This moment – today – is fleeting. Tomorrow turns into next week which turns into 6 months, and before you realize it… you're another year older and a year's worth of memories has been tucked away. Photographs preserve those memories – the way your daughter's hands look so similar to your mother's, how the summer sun makes your son's hair lighter and freckles darker, the way your spouse looks at you when you tell a joke.
In a sea of sameness, a midst all the selfie snaps and posed portraits, let's create memories that will tell your story for generations to come.
Some information about Photo Sessions with Gretchen Willis Photography
- I'm an on-location photographer. I specialize in using available light and natural settings. During your pre-session consultation, we'll discuss where your photo shoot will take place. You may know the location that you'd like to use, such as your home or a park or some beautiful architecture. Click here to see if your location falls within my service area. If you don't have a place in mind I can make suggestions, depending on your style and personality. Because the weather in Wisconsin can be nasty in the winter months, my busiest times are March through November.
- My session prices are all-inclusive. Every session includes digital images (up to 35 for a standard session, up to 60 for an extended session). Also included is a print release for personal use. These items are hand-delivered to you after your session. Click Here to see more details about my pricing.
- I offer unique, high-quality products. I'm a firm believer in creating images to celebrate the most important parts of our lives. Images should never be left on a computer or phone or memory stick. Memories are meant to be celebrated. The products I sell help you recall these memories every time you see them. You'll never be sorry about money spent on items that honor those memories.
- I stand behind every product I sell. If you are unhappy, for any reason, I will exchange your product for something that meets your needs.

Festival Used Image of Deadmau5 To Sell Tickets, But He's Not Playing
Apparently The Germination Festival recently teased an image that looks suspiciously like Deadmau5, Bassnectar, and Griz, with the tag "Big announcement coming!"
Joel caught wind of it thanks to a tweet from a fan.
Now say what you will about his thorny, often trollish online personality, but Deadmau5 is known for sticking up for fans, and he's doing just that in this situation.
And apparently whoever he contacted at the festival made light of the situation, but he wasn't amused.
We're not sure if this is technically illegal, but given that the festival was selling tickets with deliberately misleading information, it's certainly shady and trying to play it off as a joke doesn't change anything. But hopefully any fans who did buy tickets hoping to see Deadmau5, Bassnectar, or Griz will be able to get refunds.

Woman warns derelict Montague Arms hotel where brother died still danger to public
A sister has pleaded for a disused building where her 20-year-old brother died to be properly boarded up to protect others.
The body Christopher Connor was found five years ago in the former hotel in Portstewart.
Mr Connor died after a night socialising in the town. He was found by his cousin two days after he disappeared in the disused Montague Arms on Portstewart's Promenade.
Despite a coroner raising concerns about the public being able to access dangerous, dilapidated buildings, it has now emerged that boards on the derelict hotel have been ripped off.
"My brother lost his life because that building was lying open. For the public's safety, it should be boarded up and not be lying open," his distraught sister Laura told the Belfast Telegraph.
"It's a disgrace. There's already been one life lost there because no one seemed to care enough to cover the premises up for the passing public."
The Connor family believe that Christopher - who was due to join the Army - may have thought he was going back into a nightclub when he stumbled into the derelict building and then hit his head.
His sister's words of warning echo a call from a senior coroner at Mr Connor's inquest in 2012, who urged that more should be done to ensure rundown premises are properly secured.
Local SDLP councillor Maura Hickey has promised that she will represent the family's interests and make sure that the premises are made secure as soon as possible.
Ms Connor claims it is easy to get into the rear of the building, as boarding has either come away or been pulled off.
"Neither me nor my parents have ever been back into Portstewart since Christopher died. We couldn't pass that building or go anywhere near it," she said.
Mr Connor hit the back of his head when he somehow entered the building on Church Street on the night of December 17, 2011.
He died shortly afterwards, but his body was not discovered until two days later.
The only son of Theresa and Christopher Connor from Coleraine, Mr Connor had been socialising in the Havana Club - now under new ownership - when he was put off the premises by security staff.
Ms Connor said: "We don't know how Christopher ended up there as he had been drinking in the Havana Club that night.
"We were told he had fallen asleep in the club and had been put out through the fire exit.
"But I've seen the footage of him leaving, though my mum and dad have never seen it. He looked like a zombie in it, he was still half-sleeping.
"He was put out into a dark street where there were no lights working. The only thing that we can think of is that because he had been drinking and was disorientated, he thought he was walking back into Havana, maybe to get his coat, and he fell on stairs in the disused building.
"He hit the back of his head and died within a hour. There was no drugs in his system, no evidence of him being harmed, so we clearly think that is what happened to Christopher.
"Please don't let this happen again to anyone else. This building needs to be boarded up now," she added.
Councillor Hickey has promised to ensure that the premises are made secure as soon as possible and will be in contact with the owners, who plan to redevelop the building as a commercial property.
"I can understand where the Connor family is coming from and their concerns as I recall Christopher's death as a very tragic one at the time," she said.

Britain will review its extradition agreements with the United States and European nations amid concerns that the current system is failing to protect British citizens, a report said Tuesday.
Home Secretary Theresa May will soon announce an independent review, which could lead to foreign governments being required to provide more evidence before British courts grant a request, the Daily Telegraph newspaper said.
It could also give the home secretary more powers to block individual extraditions, it said.
The news comes after several cases here that have triggered public outrage over current agreements, particularly with the United States. Critics claim the agreement with Washington is biased against Britain.
In the most high-profile case, a Briton suffering from Asperger's Syndrome, a form of autism, faces extradition to the US where he is accused of hacking into American military and NASA computers.
Gary McKinnon claims he was only looking for evidence of unidentified flying objects. The case sparked a storm of protest and Prime Minister David Cameron raised it when he held talks with US President Barack Obama in July.
The review, which will report next year, is to examine five areas of the 2003 Extradition Act, including the relationship with Washington and the operation of the European Arrest Warrant, reported the Telegraph.
More than 1,000 people were extradited from Britain under one or other of the procedures last year, according to the paper.
Under the review, lawyers and international relations experts, led by a judge, will examine whether the agreement with the United States needs to be changed, said the Telegraph.
Concerns have been raised that the United States is not required to offer any substantial proof of an allegation when seeking the extradition of a suspect from Britain to stand trial.
Tony Baldry, a lawmaker from the Conservative party which holds power as part of a coalition government, said Monday the widely-held view that the agreement with the US was unfair to Britain did little to reinforce the "mutual trust" between the allies.
May, also a Conservative, responded that she thought it was "entirely right for the coalition government to agree that we will review that treaty".

Where to start… I can only start by thanking Him and praising Him for loving me.
John 3:16 says God loved the world so much, He sacrificed Himself, Jesus, so whosoever believed in Him would spend eternity with, instead of without, Him. Whosoever, everyone and anyone, me, you; whosoever believes will be saved. Even if only one of us 'whosoevers' came to Him, He still would have died on that horrible, wonderful cross. Think about that for a moment. Do you – can you even begin to really grasp how much He loves you? If you were that 'only one,' He loves you so much He would still have gladly given Himself for you. Once you begin to come to grips with this concept of just how much He loves you, start to expand that thought to the fact this is how much He loves every person, whether you like that person or not. Start looking at every person you meet, hear about, see, do not see, every person individually could have been that 'only one.' How shameful that we fail so utterly in loving others, much less letting others know how much God loves them.
Now back to my story; I was born in a small southwest Missouri town. My father was an alcoholic, and a mean one, who abused us, especially my mother, on a regular basis. My mother was definitely what we now call an enabler. I am amazed now, looking back, that we even went to church. I know we did because I remember being baptized. My mother made play outfits for my sister and me out of cloth flour sacks. You might remember something like I am describing; the bottom was stitched with elastic to make legs, bias tape and elastic made the waist, the top was finished with bias tape, and bias tape straps to tie at the shoulders. I wore one of those outfits, a blue and white striped one, to be baptized. I was absolutely mortified when I 'arose' from the water and realized you could see those blue and white stripes through the wet, white baptismal robe. That is absolutely all I remember about church, and being baptized, until after we moved to Texas and my father had left us. You can probably agree with me, I was not sincere in my relationship with Christ at that time.
Once we got to Texas, we joined a big church, and I mean big, second biggest church of any denomination in town, and 'growing' all the time! I have vague memories of planting a bean in a paper cup during vacation bible school, and once going to – was it G.A.'s? Oh, and once I was going to be in some Children's Choir production, until some other child made fun of my homemade costume and I sat out on the front steps of the church, crying, until my mother came to pick me up at the time it was supposed to be over. That broke my heart because I was so proud of my sister being in the Youth Choir; they had even made a record and she was in the choir's picture on the album cover. I kareoked to that album until it was stolen from me after I got out of high school. You see, my brother was "The Hero" of our family, my sister "The Perfect One" and I was "The Black Sheep."
I am not really sure when I stopped going to church, but I 'learned' a lot while I was attending. I 'knew' more scripture than most Christians, I could sing most hymns from memory, verse and chorus, and I knew all the right (as Duane Sheriff calls it) King Jimmy Jive. Don't get me wrong – God was definitely wooing me during all this, but somehow Satan always kept me in his clutches. I also remember once my mother's friend was watching us while my mother was out of town for work or something. She took us to church on a Wednesday evening, and came back to get us when it was over. I know the Holy Spirit was moving in me that night; I walked the aisle to give Him my life. But the pastor told me I couldn't since I had already been baptized, and was just being emotional. Then, my mother's friend wanted to know why I had been crying at church (this was before waterproof mascara!) and when I told her, she just laughed at me, and later she even made fun of me. Satan won another battle.
By the time I finished high school, Satan had me tucked neatly in his camp. Oh yes, The Holy Spirit convicted me of the bad decisions was I making, but one more drink, one more toke, or one more pill usually closed my ears, if not my heart, to Him. I decided it was probably 'right' to marry the father of my child before she was born, but divorced him before she was three years old. I have heard it said a girl wants to marry a man just like Daddy, and I did. He got drunk and beat me regularly, until I realized no matter how sorry the man was the next morning, dead was dead. He tried to push me out our living room window; we lived on the third floor. I packed up my and my daughter's things while he was at work the next day, and was gone before he got home. God does not approve of divorce, but He did not approve my choice of husband.
Fast forward through almost thirty years of one bad decision, after another bad decision, after an even worse decision… when I was 28, I started going to a non-denominational church in an attempt to get yet another marriage to an alcoholic and drug addict on the 'right track.' God finally broke through to my hard heart. I gave my life to Him and was baptized again – something for which my mother swore I would burn in Hell – but I meant it this time. I even took a few Bible College classes, but that is another story, one in which Satan almost won again. Do the math; this was in the midst of that thirty years I mentioned. Yes, even then I fell away and back into making very poor and shameful decisions. Satan kept telling me I could never be good enough, God could never forgive me again, so stop trying. Yet God was so good to me and brought me back, only for me to fall again. A friend asked me once if I had died when I was deep in one of those backslidden times if I thought I would have gone to Heaven or Hell, and I still do not know for sure. But no sin is a small sin to God, so was I really any worse then than I am now? I still mess up, we all do, but now I am quicker to realize when I begin to drift away, when I am not seeking Him minute to minute, not listening for Him to guide me in everything. I realize then I am yet again adding another thorn to His crown, another stripe on His back, and I fall brokenhearted at His feet, so ashamed, and thankful He is so very gracious and merciful to forgive me.
When did all those scriptures I learned finally become real to me? When did I start singing those hymns from my heart to His? When did I drop 'the jive' and start talking to Him, as my Loving Father and Most Precious Friend? When did I finally realize I am head over heels in love with Christ, that He is everything to me? I can not give you a definite date, since it was not a flash of lightening event. Rather it was His 'still small voice' whispering in my heart, over and over, until I finally came to believe Him; He loves me, so much, no matter what I have done or will do, I could have been that "only one."
How could I not want to tell the world?!?

The Harry Potter Cast Still Have A Group WhatsApp And We Want In On The Lolz
The Debrief: They totally Slytherin to each other's DMs and it's probably as great as you hoped
Are you even friends if you don't have a group WhatsApp? Probably not. Which is why anyone who has ever doubted the Harry Potter cast's IRL friendship can go and sit TF down because here's some proof for ya.
We've seen them at reunions every now and again, and if we're lucky we'll spot a jolly Twitter exchange between the ex-co-stars. And okay, you can't be blamed for wondering how real the love is between these people who last worked together almost six years ago. Work pals drift apart, it's life. But Hogwarts bonds people, you guys. And a bond shared between wizards is one that lasts. Until the very end.
How can we be sure? Emma Watson spoke about her wizarding colleagues with Entertainment Tonight at the Hollywood premiere of her new film Beauty and the Beast, and said: 'We actually have a group WhatsApp which invited everyone really from the main cast from Harry Potter to come to the screening.' Anyone else's heart swelling with pure joy right now?
'It's a case of trying to like, get people into the right places, but yeah, everyone have been very supported and I'm very supported by my old co-stars'. Emma added. So many feels. We all know the pain of trying to organise a group meet up in a WhatsApp conversation with more than one other person because, WhatsApp. And you know what, I bet they have exactly the same group chat stresses as us mere muggles do.
I reckon Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) and Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) probably go rogue every now and again and get caught up in their own funny back and forth while poor Daniel Radcliffe (HP himself) definitely is the one who sends a message to try and join in only to be met with the double blue tick and no reply. Awkward.
Ere @TomFelton, the 80s called. They want their publicity shot back. pic.twitter.com/Us8cmzs6j1— Matthew Lewis (@Mattdavelewis) January 17, 2015
Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) probably keeps having to be re-added to the group, much to Emma Watson's frustration as group admin, because he keeps losing his ruddy phone and has to message Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) on Facebook pleading with her to give Emma his new number (again) so he can get back in on the bantz.
What are they like, eh?

Last week's "Mixed Signals" about Peter Jennings at the 1972 Munich Olympics elicited some wonderful critiques, recommendations, and other helpful responses. These included several dialogues from the ABC Sports Alumni Association, which is a group founded by former ABC executives Bob Apter and Geoff Mason, with several hundred members today.
Of particular note were three comments from three former ABC Sports producers and/or directors, i.e., John Wilcox, Doug Wilson, and Jim Jennett. I found them helpful enough to want to restate them here, for the world at large. Indeed, if ever there were to be a Broadcasting University, with a course on "The Olympics," a couple of fine points from the comments below — and from Geoff Mason, mentioned in a 2011 version of this "Mixed Signals" blog – would be worth considering.
What's A DBS Company To Do?
Seeking A Three-Way Bundle That They Control
By The Carmel Group's Jimmy Schaeffler
Last week, The Carmel Group spent a good deal of time learning about a company that is rumored to be a candidate to work with DirecTV and/or EchoStar, as both satellite TV companies try to build their joint or separate telecommunications bundles. These would be bundles of three key services: video, voice and Internet. What DirecTV and EchoStar need are terrestrial voice and 2-way Internet broadband services that they each (or together) can manage, control and from which they can reap the key rewards.
The TV consulting company, The Carmel Group, with which I have been affiliated these past 20 years, conducted a study about a year ago — whose data remains relevant and still generally accurate today.
The study showed the relative value of cable channels versus broadcast channels in a hypothetical, big time, retransmission consent negotiation. This 10-page study of contained a good number of enumerative charts (as appendices). The Carmel Group has been looking into the issue of retransmission consent for a number of years, and now that the topic is in the news again, below are our observations. I was surprised by the study results. You will be, as well.
Read more: Balancing Retransmission: And the Data Says… Advantage Broadcasters
Eleven years ago, at The Carmel Group's inaugural Five Burning Questions conference in southern CA, an anonymous attendee stated a "law" that has since proved itself repeatedly: If you do not attend certain conferences regularly (even if you read the trades and talk regularly to peers), you will remain at least six months behind the latest industry developments.
That maxim proved itself yet again June 13, when 23 top-level industry representatives from Silicon Valley, Hollywood, Wall Street, Washington, DC, Denver's cable and satellite communities (to name but a few)—and many points in between—gathered in San Diego for the 11th Annual Five Burning Questions event, as part of the 5th annual ISCe conference, held at San Diego's Mission Bay Hilton Hotel.
Greater than 90% of U.S.TV Households (USTVHHs) pay a cable, satellite, or telco video distributor for their TV. That's a lot of people demanding a lot of ones and zeros, to say nothing of the mobile wireless users.
In addition, video distribution today is supported by a hodge-podge of various systems and players. At its core, are several different sets of player types, largely based on the type of infrastructure each uses to deliver its video signals.

Christmas is approaching fast, which means that a lot of home tours in Christmas spirits are appearing on the internet. This beautiful Christmas home in a 1960s bungalow is located in The Netherlands. The bungalow was extremely boring when Kim and Tjimme bought it, but together with architecture firm RoosRos did they create a warm family home. I love how they difined the spaces with color. The living room is painted in dark and warm colors while the kitchen is very light. Upstairs there's a nice blend of grey-tones to create a warm bedroom and bathroom. It's abolutely a stunning home and there a quite a few great Christmas decor ideas here!
