Denver has become a serious hotspot over the past few years, and Thornton apartments for rent make the perfect home for newcomers to the area. As one of the fastest-growing cities in Colorado, Thornton has experienced a 44.2 percent population growth from 2000 to 2010, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The town now has more than 120,000 residents living in Thornton apartments and homes, and shows no signs of slowing down. If you are looking for ways to join the vibrant, outdoorsy Colorado community, Thornton is the place to be.
Although the town was still mostly farmland until the middle of the 20th century, the landscape has transformed into a suburb with many Thornton apartments for rent. Named after former Colorado Governor Dan Thornton, the town began in 1953 as a community of 40 homes, and within just three years, attracted several businesses and new residents as Denver became a more desirable metropolitan destination. Although Thornton has experienced a few weather anomalies over the years, dedicated local residents and businesses always come together to help rebuild infrastructure and lead their town into the future.
There are plenty of traditionally Colorado attractions here, including the Rocky Mountains, Sand Creek Regional Greenway and the Dirty Bismarck Loop, which all give residents a space to live the outdoor-oriented Colorado lifestyle. Thorntonfest is another local favorite, and captures the spirit of the thriving community with a 5K, battle of the bands and events promoting local ventures and green living initiatives each May.
As Thornton continues to grow and more people seek homes in Thornton apartments for rent, the city's affordable living conditions have yet to waiver. According to City-Data, the cost of living here is only slightly higher than the national average. As such, rentals are still popular because of the wide variety available, from Thornton apartments and condos to townhomes and duplexes. According to AreaVibes, necessities are also very affordable here, and residents can expect to pay $3.40 for a gallon of gasoline, $2.14 for a gallon of milk, $1.67 for a loaf of bread and $1.88 for a dozen eggs.
After FasTracks, a light rail expansion new to the Denver area, was finished, an influx in job opportunities attracted new opportunities to the area. Echostar, North Suburban Medical Center and T-Mobile are among the largest employers in the area and help promote a diverse job market for Thornton residents. Many people here also commute to work in Denver, as the city is located just 10 miles northeast of downtown Thornton.
There are several universities in the Thornton area, but the University of Colorado, Denver, is the largest available. With undergraduate and doctoral programs ranging from molecular genetics to music, the university has many fields of study that attract prospective students. The Metropolitan State College of Denver is another favorite here, and offers daytime, evening and weekend classes that may be more conducive to accommodating a busy schedule. These institutions make Thornton apartments ideal for students.

The mortgage settlement between leading lenders and most state attorneys general isn't going to fix the nation's residential real estate mess.

John Clayton Mayer (/ˈmeɪ.ər/ MAY-ər;[1] born October 16, 1977) is an American guitarist, singer-songwriter, and producer.[2] Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and raised in Fairfield, he attended Berklee College of Music in Boston. He moved to Atlanta in 1997, where he refined his skills and gained a following, and he now lives in Montana.[3] His first two studio albums, Room for Squares (2001) and Heavier Things (2003), did well commercially, achieving multi-platinum status.[4] In 2003, he won a Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Your Body Is a Wonderland."[5]
Mayer began his career performing mainly acoustic rock, but gradually began a transition towards the blues genre in 2005 by collaborating with renowned blues artists such as B. B. King, Buddy Guy, and Eric Clapton, and by forming the John Mayer Trio. The blues influence can be heard throughout his 2005 live album Try! with the John Mayer Trio and his third studio album Continuum, released in September 2006. At the 49th Annual Grammy Awards in 2007, Mayer won Best Pop Vocal Album for Continuum and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Waiting on the World to Change". He released his fourth studio album, Battle Studies, in November 2009. His fifth album, Born and Raised, which saw another musical style shift, was released in May 2012, followed by his sixth album Paradise Valley in August 2013. He has sold over ten million albums in the U.S. and over 20 million albums worldwide.
Mayer's career pursuits have extended to comedy, graphic design, television hosting, and writing; he has written pieces for magazines, most notably for Esquire. He is also involved in philanthropic activities through charity work and various environmental causes.
Early life
John Clayton Mayer was born on October 16, 1977 in Bridgeport, Connecticut to high school principal Richard Mayer and English teacher Margaret Hoffman. Through his mother, he is of German, Luxembourgian, Swedish, and English descent. His father is Jewish, and Mayer has identified himself as "half-Jewish".[6] He grew up in Fairfield, Connecticut. He has a younger brother named Ben and an older brother named Carl.[7] He attended Fairfield High School in Fairfield[8] although he was enrolled in the Center for Global Studies at Brien McMahon High School in Norwalk for his junior year (then known as the Center for Japanese Studies Abroad; it is a magnet program for students wanting to learn Japanese).[9]
After watching Michael J. Fox's guitar performance as Marty McFly in Back to the Future, Mayer became fascinated with the instrument, and when he turned 13, his father rented one for him.[10][11] A neighbor gave Mayer a Stevie Ray Vaughan cassette, which cultivated Mayer's love of blues music.[12]a[›] Mayer started taking lessons from a local guitar-shop owner, Al Ferrante, and soon became consumed with playing the instrument.[13][14] His singular focus concerned his parents, and they took him twice to see a psychiatrist—but Mayer was determined to be fine.[13][14] Mayer says that the contentious nature of his parents' marriage led him to "disappear and create my own world I could believe in".[13] After two years of practice, he started playing at blues bars and other venues in the area, while he was still in high school.[9][11] In addition to performing solo, he was a member of a band called Villanova Junction (named for a Jimi Hendrix song) with Tim Procaccini, Joe Beleznay, and Rich Wolf.[13][15] Mayer considered skipping college to pursue his music, but the disapproval of his parents dissuaded him from doing so.[13]
When Mayer was seventeen, he was stricken with cardiac dysrhythmia and was hospitalized for a weekend. Reflecting on the incident, Mayer said, "That was the moment the songwriter in me was born," and he penned his first lyrics the night he got home from the hospital.[16] Shortly thereafter, he began suffering from panic attacks, and lived with the fear of having to enter a mental institution.[13] He continues to manage such episodes with Xanax, an anti-anxiety drug.[16][17] After graduation, he worked for fifteen months at a gas station until he saved enough money to buy a 1996 Fender Stevie Ray Vaughan Stratocaster.[18]
Early career
Mayer enrolled in the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, aged 19.[19] However, at the urging of his college friend an Atlanta, Georgia native, Clay Cook, he left school after two semesters and moved with Cook to Atlanta.[20] In Atlanta they formed a two-man band called LoFi Masters and began performing in local coffee houses and club venues such as Eddie's Attic.[11] According to Cook, they began to experience musical differences due to Mayer's desire to move more towards pop music.[21] As a result, the two parted ways, and Mayer embarked on a solo career.[20]
With the help of local producer and engineer Glenn Matullo, Mayer recorded the independent EP Inside Wants Out. Cook co-wrote many of the songs from the EP including Mayer's first commercial single release, "No Such Thing".[21] The EP includes eight songs with Mayer on lead vocals and guitars. However, Cook's only contribution was backing vocals on the song "Comfortable". For the opening track, "Back To You", a full band was enlisted, including the EP's co-producer David "DeLa" LaBruyere on bass guitars.[22] Mayer and LaBruyere then began to perform throughout Georgia and nearby states.
Major label and commercial success (2000–2004)

Mayer's reputation began to build, and a March 2000 appearance at South by Southwest brought him to the attention of "launch" label, Aware Records.[14][23][24] After including him in the Aware Festival concerts and having his songs included on Aware compilations, in early 2001, Aware released Mayer's internet-only album titled, Room for Squares. During this time, Aware inked a deal with Columbia Records that gave Columbia first pick in signing Aware artists, and so in September of the same year, Columbia remixed and re-released Room for Squares.[25] As part of the major label "debut", the album's artwork was updated, and the track "3x5" was added. The re-release also included reworked studio versions of the first four songs from his indie album, Inside Wants Out.[26]
By the end of 2002, Room for Squares had spawned several radio hits, including "No Such Thing," "Your Body Is a Wonderland", and ultimately, "Why Georgia". In 2003, Mayer won a Grammy for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Your Body Is a Wonderland." In his acceptance speech he remarked, "This is very, very fast, and I promise to catch up."[27] He also figuratively referred to himself as being sixteen, a remark that many mistook to mean that he was only sixteen years old at the time.[28]
In 2003, Mayer released a live CD and DVD of a concert in Birmingham, Alabama titled Any Given Thursday. The concert featured songs previously not recorded, such as "Man on the Side" (co-written with Cook) and "Something's Missing", which later appeared on Heavier Things. The concert also included "Covered in Rain". According to the accompanying DVD documentary, this song is "part two" of the song "City Love", which features the line "covered in rain". Commercially, the album quickly peaked at number seventeen on the Billboard 200 chart. The CD/DVD received conservative, although consistent, praise, with critics torn between his pop-idol image, and (at the time) emerging guitar prowess. Erik Crawford (of Allmusic) asked "Is he the consummate guitar hero exemplified when he plays a cover of Stevie Ray Vaughan's 'Lenny', or is he the teen idol that the pubescent girls shriek for after he plays 'Your Body Is a Wonderland?'"[29][30]
Heavier Things, Mayer's second album, was released in 2003 to generally favorable reviews. Rolling Stone, Allmusic and Blender all gave positive, although reserved, feedback.[31] The album was commercially successful, and while it did not sell as well as Room for Squares, it peaked at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart. Mayer earned his first number one single with the song "Daughters" as well as a 2005 Grammy for Song of the Year, beating out fellow contenders Alicia Keys and Kanye West. He dedicated the award to his grandmother, Annie Hoffman, who died in May 2004. He also won Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, beating Elvis Costello, Prince, and Seal for the award. In a February 9, 2009 interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Mayer said that he thought he should not have won the Grammy for Song of the year because he thought that Alicia Keys' "If I Ain't Got You" was the better song. Because of this, he removed the top half of the Grammy and gave it to Keys, and kept the bottom part for himself. At the 37th Annual Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in 2006, Mayer was honored with the Hal David Starlight Award.[32]
Mayer again recorded live concerts across seven nights of his U.S. tour in 2004. These recordings were released to the iTunes Store under the title As/Is, indicating that the errors were included along with the good moments. A few months later, a "best of" CD was compiled from the As/Is nights. The album included a previously unreleased cover of Marvin Gaye's song "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)", featuring a solo from Mayer's support act, jazz and blues turntablist DJ Logic. All the album covers of the As/Is releases feature drawings of anthropomorphic bunnies.[33]
With increased exposure, Mayer's talent came into demand in other areas. Steve Jobs invited Mayer to perform during the keynote address of Apple's annual Macworld Conference & Expo, in January 2004, as Jobs introduced the software application GarageBand.[34] The gig led to Mayer becoming a fixture of the event. He rejoined Jobs on stage for a solo performance at Macworld 2007, following the announcement of the iPhone.[35] Mayer has also done endorsements, such as a Volkswagen commercial for the Beetle's guitar outlet and for the BlackBerry Curve.[36]
Change in musical direction and John Mayer trio (2005)
Mayer began to collaborate extensively, often working with artists outside of his own genre. He appeared on Common's song "Go!" and on Kanye West's "Bittersweet Poetry".b[›] Following these collaborations, Mayer received praise from rap heavyweights Jay-Z and Nelly.[37] When asked about his presence in the hip hop community, Mayer said, "It's not music out there right now. That's why, to me, hip-hop is where rock used to be."[38]

It was around this time that Mayer began hinting a change in his musical interests, announcing that he was "closing up shop on acoustic sensitivity."[38] In 2005, he began a string of collaborations with various blues artists, including Buddy Guy, B.B. King, Eric Clapton, as well as jazz artist John Scofield. He also went on tour with legendary jazz pianist Herbie Hancock, which included a show at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tennessee. These collaborations led to recordings with several of these artists, namely, Clapton (Back Home, Crossroads Guitar Festival), Guy (Bring 'Em In), Scofield (That's What I Say), and King (80). Although Mayer has maintained a reputation for being a sensitive singer-songwriter, he has also gained distinction as an accomplished guitarist, influenced by the likes of the above artists, as well as Eric Johnson, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, and Freddie King.[40]
From the album Try! The first single, "Who Did You Think I Was?," lyrically underscores Mayer's decision to move away from acoustic pop music and towards blues, with lines such as, "Got a brand new blues that I can't explain."[41] This sample features an extended electric guitar solo.

In the spring of 2005, Mayer formed the John Mayer Trio with bassist Pino Palladino and drummer Steve Jordan, both of whom he had met through previous studio sessions. The trio played a combination of blues and rock music. In October 2005, the Trio opened for The Rolling Stones during a sold-out club tour of their own,[42] and that November, released a live album called Try! The band took a break in mid-2006. In September 2006, Mayer announced plans for the Trio to begin work on a future studio album.[43]
Continuum (2006–2008)
Mayer's third studio album, titled Continuum, was released on September 12, 2006, and was produced by Mayer and Steve Jordan. Mayer suggested the album was intended to combine his signature pop music with the feel, sound, groove, and sensibilities of the blues. In that vein, two of the tracks from his Trio release Try!—"Vultures" and "Gravity"—also were included on Continuum.[19]
The first single from Continuum was "Waiting on the World to Change", which debuted on The Ron and Fez Show. The song was the third most downloaded song of the week on the iTunes Store following its release on July 11, 2006, and debuted at No. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.
On August 23, 2006, Mayer debuted the entire album on the Los Angeles radio station Star 98.7, giving commentary on each track.[44] A subsequent version was released the next day on the Clear Channel Music website as a streaming sneak preview. On September 21, 2006, Mayer appeared on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, playing "Waiting on the World to Change" and "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room." The song "Gravity" was featured on the television series House, in the episode "Cane & Able", and Numb3rs. He recorded a session for the British program Live from Abbey Road at Abbey Road Studios on October 22, 2006.
On December 7, 2006, Mayer was nominated for five 2007 Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year. The John Mayer Trio also received a nomination for their album, Try!. He won two: Best Pop Song with Vocal for "Waiting on the World to Change" and Best Pop Album for Continuum. Mayer remixed an acoustic version of his single "Waiting on the World to Change" with vocal additions from fellow musician Ben Harper. In preparation for recording Continuum, Mayer had booked the Village Recorder in Los Angeles to record five demo acoustic versions of his songs with veteran musician Robbie McIntosh. These recordings became The Village Sessions, an EP released on December 12, 2006. As usual, Mayer oversaw the artwork of the release.[45]
Mayer was featured on the cover of Rolling Stone (#1020) in February 2007, along with John Frusciante and Derek Trucks. He was named as one of the "New Guitar Gods," and the cover nicknamed him "Slowhand, Jr.," a reference to Eric Clapton.[40] Additionally, he was selected by the editors of Time magazine as one of the 100 Most Influential People of 2007 and was listed among artists and entertainers.[46]
On November 20, 2007, the re-issue of Continuum became available online and in stores. The release contains a bonus disc of six live songs from his 2007 tour: five from Continuum and a cover of the Ray Charles song "I Don't Need No Doctor".[47] His new single, "Say", also became available through iTunes. On December 6, 2007, "Belief" was nominated for Best Male Pop Vocal for the 50th Annual Grammy Awards. He accompanied Alicia Keys on guitar on her song "No One" at the ceremony.
In February 2008, Mayer hosted a three-day Caribbean cruise event that included performances with various musicians including David Ryan Harris, Brett Dennen, Colbie Caillat, and Dave Barnes, among others. The event was called "The Mayercraft Carrier" and was held aboard the cruise ship known as the Carnival Victory.[48] A follow up cruise titled "Mayercraft Carrier 2" set sail from Los Angeles from March 27–31, 2009 on the Carnival Splendor.
On July 1, 2008, Mayer released Where the Light Is, a live concert film of Mayer's performance at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on December 8, 2007. The film was directed by Danny Clinch. It features an acoustic set and a set with the John Mayer Trio, followed by a set with John's band from the Continuum album. The DVD and Blu-ray bonus material includes footage of Mayer backstage and playing outside on Mulholland Drive.[49]
Battle Studies and Born and Raised (2009–2012)
Australian artist Guy Sebastian invited Mayer to collaborate on three songs from his 2009 album Like It Like That.[50] Mayer also played guitar on the title track of Crosby Loggins' debut LP, Time to Move, released on July 10, 2009.[51]
On July 7, 2009, Mayer performed an instrumental guitar version of Michael Jackson's "Human Nature" at Jackson's televised memorial service.[52]
On November 17, 2009, Mayer's fourth studio album, Battle Studies, was released and debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 album chart.[53] The album consists of 11 tracks with a total time of 45 minutes. The first single from the album, "Who Says", was released on September 24, 2009 in advance of album, and was followed on October 19 by the single "Heartbreak Warfare" and the single "Half of My Heart" released on June 21, 2010. Despite the album's commercial success, critics were mixed with their praise; while some reviews were glowing, calling it his "most adventurous",[54][55] others called the album "safe" and noted that "Mayer the singer-songwriter and Mayer the man about town sometimes seem disconnected, like they don't even belong in the same body."[13][56][57][58]
Mayer admitted to Rolling Stone that he thought Battle Studies was not his best album.[59][60]
Following his controversial interviews to Playboy and Rolling Stone about Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston, Mayer withdrew from public life. He later explained on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, "I lost my head for a little while and I did a couple of dumb interviews and it kind of woke me up. It was a very strange time and it sort of rocketed me into adulthood. It was a violent crash into being an adult. For a couple of years, it was just figuring it all out, and I'm glad I actually stayed out of the spotlight."[61][62][63]
Early reports indicated that the follow-up to Battle Studies would be called Born and Raised, and would be released in October 2011.[64]
On September 16, 2011, Mayer posted on his blog that his new record, Born and Raised, was being delayed due to granulomas discovered in his throat. The granulomas were found next to the vocal cords and were said to be treatable.[65] Mayer described this as a "temporary setback" and added that recording and mixing of Born and Raised was entirely finished except for a few remaining vocal tracks.[66] He told, "I did a lot of therapy, like anti-acid reflux, and it didn't work, then I went on vocal rest. No alcohol. No spicy food. No talking. Most of September I wasn't talking at all. I'd have a Bluetooth keyboard, and someone would have an iPad to read what I type. I had to point to menus at restaurants. People look at me like I'm crazy."[67] On October 20, 2011, Mayer updated his fans about the treatment of his throat granuloma, announcing that he "had surgery this afternoon to remove it and am now on complete vocal rest for a month or more", during which he plans to "travel the country, look, and listen."[66]
The first single from Born and Raised, called "Shadow Days" was released on February 27, 2012. On February 28, 2012, John Mayer released the track listing for the album and announced that Born and Raised would be released on May 22, 2012.[68] He described it as his "most honest" album.[61]
On March 9, 2012, Mayer announced on his blog that due to the return of a serious throat condition, he has been forced to cancel his tour and refrain from all singing indefinitely.[69] Because the surgery he had in October 2011 did not work as expected, Mayer said he would have to undergo the surgery again.[67] He had the surgery in late August 2012 and later posted a message on his Tumblr account explaining that he would not sing for several months.[70] Despite not being able to sing, Mayer played the guitar with other artists. He appeared in September 2012 on Saturday Night Live where he played the guitar while Frank Ocean was singing.[71] He also played with the Rolling Stones during the band's gig in New Jersey in December 2012.[72] In January 2013, Mayer recovered sufficiently and returned to the stage during a benefit concert in Bozeman, Montana after almost two years of absence.[73] He is scheduled to perform in April 2013 at the Crossroads Guitar Festival[74] and at the 28th Annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, where he will induct Albert King.[75] He is also among the lineup of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, which will take place later that month.[76]
Paradise Valley (2013–present)
Following his recovery from vocal surgery, Mayer returned to the studio. On June 18, 2013, Mayer announced from his Facebook page that his sixth album, Paradise Valley, would be released on August 13, 2013.[77] On the same day, he released a lyric video for the new album's first single, "Paper Doll", on his YouTube page.[78] The release date was later changed to August 20, 2013. "Who You Love" featuring Katy Perry followed as the album's third single.[79]
Other ventures
In 2002, Mayer began the "Back to You" Fund, a nonprofit organization that focuses on fundraising in the areas of health care, education, the arts, and talent development. The foundation raises funds through the auction of exclusive John Mayer items, such as guitar picks, T-shirts, and signed CDs, made available on Mayer's auction site. The auctions have been successful, with some tickets selling for more than seventeen times their face value.[80][81]
Mayer participated at the East Rutherford, New Jersey location of the Live Earth project, a musical rally to support awareness for global warming held July 7, 2007.[82] He converted his tour bus to bio-diesel fuel.[83]
Mayer has performed at a number of benefits and telethons for charity throughout his career. In response to the Virginia Tech massacre, Mayer (along with Dave Matthews Band, Phil Vassar, and Nas) performed a free concert at Virginia Tech's Lane Stadium on September 6, 2007.[84] On December 8, 2007, Mayer hosted the first annual Charity Revue, a tradition he has continued each year. Charities who have benefited from the concerts include Toys for Tots, Inner City Arts, and the Los Angeles Mission.[85] Both CDs and DVDs of the first concert were released under the title Where the Light Is in July 2008. It has not been announced whether the DVD proceeds will go to charity or not.[86] Mayer appeared on Songs for Tibet: The Art of Peace, a celebrity initiative to support Tibet and the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso.[87] In January 2013, Mayer participated with Zac Brown in a benefit concert in Bozeman, Montana where they raised more than $100,000 for firefighters who battled a wildfire in the summer of 2012 in Paradise Valley that destroyed 12,000 acres.[73][88]
"I'm actually into sneakers on a design level. I've got a big design thing going on in my life right now ... I love designing stuff. I mean, my biggest dream, forget Grammys, I want to be able to design an Air Max."
In a Rolling Stone interview, Mayer recalled that after former Columbia Records head, Don Ienner, panned Continuum, he briefly considered quitting music and studying design full-time.[16] In 2003, Martin Guitars gave Mayer his own signature model acoustic guitar called the OM-28 John Mayer.[90] The guitar was limited to a run of only 404, an Atlanta area code.[91] This model was followed by the release of two Fender signature Stratocaster electric guitars, beginning in 2005. A third Stratocaster, finished in charcoal frost metallic paint with a racing stripe, was also a limited-release, with only 100 guitars made. In January 2006, Martin Guitars released the Martin OMJM John Mayer acoustic guitar. The guitar was intended to have many of the attributes of the Martin OM-28 John Mayer but with a more affordable price tag.[92] In August 2006, Fender started manufacturing SERIES II John Mayer Stratocasters. The new Olympic white with mint green pickguard and cream plastics replaced the shoreline gold model.[93]
In January 2007, Two Rock collaborated with Mayer on custom-designed amps. Only 25 (all signed by Mayer himself) were made available to the public.[94][95] June 2007 saw the release of the "album art" guitar, with the Continuum motif repeated on the face of the instrument,[96] as well as a 500-run John Mayer signature Fender Stratocaster in Cypress-Mica, including the limited Cypress-Mica model was the INCSvsJM gig bag on which Mayer collaborated with Incase designs. In 2006, Mayer was estimated to have more than 200 guitars in his personal collection.[16] In 2010, Fender announced a production model of Mayer's "The Black One" guitar.[97]
With the June 1, 2004, issue of Esquire, Mayer began a column called "Music Lessons with John Mayer". Each article featured a lesson and his (often humorous) take on various topics, both of personal and popular interest. In the August 2005 issue, he invited readers to create music for orphaned lyrics he had written.[98] The winner was Tim Fagan of L.A., as announced in the following January's issue.[99]
Mayer has been active online, and has maintained four blogs: a Myspace page, a blog at his official site, another at Honeyee.com, one at Tumblr.com, and a photoblog at StunningNikon.com. He also is one of the most-followed persons on the micro-blogging site Twitter,[100] reaching 3 million followers in January 2010. Although his posts often deal with career-related matters, they also contain jokes, videos, photos, his convictions, and his personal activities; they sometimes overlap in content. He is noted for writing the blogs himself, and not through a publicist.[17][46] On January 23, 2008, he posted a graphic that read, "Done & Dusted & Self Conscious & Back to Work." on his official blog, followed by the quote "There is danger in theoretical speculation of battle, in prejudice, in false reasoning, in pride, in braggadocio. There is one safe resource, the return to nature..";c[›] all the previous blog entries were deleted.[101]
In the mid-2000s he did comedy sporadically[100] making random appearances at the famed Comedy Cellar in New York and at other venues. He stated that it helped him write better but that increased media attention made him too careful in his technique.[16]
He co-wrote "Worlds of Chance" with Demi Lovato for her second album Here We Go Again (2009).[102]
In 2004, Mayer hosted a one-shot, half-hour comedy special on VH1 titled John Mayer Has a TV Show, with antics including wearing a bear suit while anonymously teasing concertgoers in the parking lot outside one of his concerts. The American network CBS announced on January 14, 2009 that they were in negotiations with Mayer for a variety show; it may air as a special or as a regular series.[103][104] In an interview with Rolling Stone, posted online on January 22, 2010, Mayer confirmed that the program, also called John Mayer Has a TV Show, was still in development, and that personnel were being hired. He described the concept as "a high quality music performance show, where I could also steer it a little bit. It's about there being a bastion of artists being made to look good and sound good.".[105]
Mayer has made many appearances on talk shows and other television programs, most notably, on a Chappelle's Show comedy skit, the Late Show with David Letterman and on the final episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Mayer made an appearance with Rob Dyrdek in the MTV show Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory.
Mayer has written the theme song to the OWN network show Rollin' with Zach, which features Zach Anner. The show premiered in December 2011 and was cancelled after six episodes.[106][107]
Mayer has toured with many musical groups, including Maroon 5,[108] Guster, Howie Day, Mat Kearney, Counting Crows,[109] Ben Folds, The Wallflowers, Teitur,[110] Brett Dennen, Sheryl Crow, Colbie Caillat, Train, Ellie Goulding, OneRepublic and Paramore. Crow and Mayer, who had just previously appeared on the Cars Soundtrack together, co-headlined a tour that ran from August to October 2006.[111] In 2007, Mayer toured Europe, hoping to reach the popularity abroad that he enjoys in North America.[112] The initial North American Continuum tour ended on February 28, 2007, with a show at Madison Square Garden, a performance which the New York Post described as "career-defining."[113] In 2010, Mayer and Keith Urban performed at a CMT Crossroads concert which saw Mayer and Urban performing a medley of their own songs together and a rendition of George Michael's single, "Faith". This performance was led to Urban and Mayer teaming up again for future performances, including at the 2010 CMT Music Awards.
Mayer allows audio taping at most of his live performances, and he also allows for the non-commercial trading of those recordings. He does this to give fans the opportunity to recreate the live experience, and to encourage fan interaction.[114]
Mayer often shows up at small venues unannounced (or with little advance notice) for surprise concerts—occasionally for free or without accepting the performance fee.[115][116][117][118] He has made appearances throughout the Los Angeles, Atlanta and New York areas, including shows at The Laugh Factory,[119] Eddie's Attic,[120] and the Village Underground.[118] His latest surprise appearance was on January 8, 2011 at Hotel Cafe where he played seven new unreleased songs. In 2004, after being asked for numerous past years, he performed for over 1000 students at the Pennsbury High School Senior Prom. Wonderland: A Year in the Life of an American High School (Grove Press, ISBN 978-0802141972), a book written by Michael Bamberger, describes the world- famous prom and John Mayer's performance.

Personal life
Mayer's parents concluded an uncontested divorce on May 27, 2009.[121] After the divorce, Mayer moved his (82-year-old) father to an assisted-living facility in Los Angeles.[13]
Following his throat surgery, he moved to Montana where, in May 2012, he purchased a home.[3]
Mayer has dated Jennifer Love Hewitt,[119] Jessica Simpson, Minka Kelly,[122] Jennifer Aniston, and Taylor Swift. Since August 2012, he has been in an on-off relationship with Katy Perry.
Mayer's relationship with Jessica Simpson coincided with some personal behaviour changes that served to significantly increase his tabloid exposure.[14][123][124] Previously, Mayer had expressed his resolve to completely avoid drugs, alcohol, clubbing, "red-carpet" events, dating celebrities and anything else that he felt would detract from his focus on his music.[125] In interviews, however, Mayer has alluded to experiencing an extreme "anxiety bender" episode in his twenties that motivated him to be less reclusive.[13][14] He later said he realized that, "If I wanted to see Jessica more, I had to grow up," and not be afraid to be without his guitar.[14] He called his relationship with her "sexual napalm" and said she had the power to "change [his] values."[123] He began making appearances at clubs in Los Angeles and New York City (where he would stage pranks for the paparazzi), and in a Rolling Stone interview from 2006, he first mentioned that he had begun using marijuana.[16]
With Taylor Swift, he recorded "Half of My Heart" for his November 2009 album Battle Studies.[126] She reportedly wrote a song about her relationship with him, "Dear John", which appears on her October 2010 Speak Now album. In June 2012, Mayer criticized the song, saying, "I will say as a songwriter that I think it's kind of cheap songwriting."[127] The first single from Mayer's August 2013 album Paradise Valley, "Paper Doll" is thought to be a response to Swift's "Dear John",[128] a claim which Mayer has neither confirmed nor denied.[129]
With Katy Perry, he recorded and co-wrote "Who You Love" for his album Paradise Valley.[130]
In early 2010, Mayer gave a controversial interview to Playboy magazine,[131][132] in which he revealed sexually explicit details about his former girlfriends Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston, and responded to questions about his interest in dating black women by saying, "My dick is sort of like a white supremacist. I've got a Benetton heart and a fuckin' David Duke cock. I'm going to start dating separately from my dick."[123] He also used the word "nigger" in the interview. This set off accusations in the media of him being a misogynist, kiss-and-tell ex-boyfriend, and racist.[133] He apologized via Twitter for his use of the word "nigger", saying, "It was arrogant of me to think I could intellectualize..... a word that is so emotionally charged."[134] He also tearfully apologized to his band and fans at his concert in Nashville later that night.[135] Mayer was dubbed an "accidental racist" by comedian Kumail Nanjiani.[136]

Code: TH9007XT
Price :$134.95 after instant rebate
Shipping Weight: 19 pounds
Hold Fast cradles and the patented FitDial mounting system make the Gateway an affordable trunk bike rack with high-dollar features. This rack includes independently adjustable arms and a body designed specifically to fit over factory spoilers.
Factory spoilers are always a potential hurdle when you are searching for a trunk-mounted bike rack. The Thule Gateway is designed to clear that hurdle with long, arcing body tubes and a patented FitDial mounting system that ensures easy and irritation-free installation on your specific vehicle.
The patented FitDial system lets you easily adjust the rack body. Simply press the levers on the base and move the rack so that the arrows line up with the correct number on the dial. These numbers are specified in the instructions included with the rack. Just find your vehicle, identify the correct number, and dial away.
The Gateway has Hold Fast anti-sway cradles that grip your bike frame at 3 different points - twice along the top bar and once along a downward bar, such as a seat post. This 3rd point of contact that is created with Thule's No-Sway Cage prevents not only sway, but also front-to-back movement and bike-to-bike contact. The cushioned cradles include reinforced rubber straps to secure the bikes in place. The cradles also include advanced grooves that accommodate bike cables.
The Gateway has narrowly spaced arms that make loading and unloading bikes hassle free. These arms are independently adjustable with the built-in Cinch Levers. All you have to do is flip the lever up, rotate the arm to the desired position, then flip the lever down to lock the arm in place. This enables you to carry bikes with unique frames, and it helps to keep your bikes level on the rack. An adapter bar may be required, however, for some women's, children's, and alternative bike frames. These levers also allow you to fold down the arms when the rack is not in use and to fold the rack flat for storage when it's not mounted on your vehicle.
While the FitDial system ensures that the body of the rack is correctly spaced on your vehicle, it is the 6 nylon straps that keep the rack anchored in place. Padded hooks on these extra-strong straps prevent scratches on your vehicle, and the straps tighten in place with easy-to-use, backpack-style cinches. Holder with hook-and-loop tabs are included to bind up the excess strap length when the rack is mounted. Simply wrap the holders around the straps to help protect your vehicle from flapping straps.
The Gateway includes molded rubber pads on the body to ensure that your vehicle is protected at all contact points with the rack. These pads prevent the rack from scratching and abrading your vehicle's paint.
To lock your bikes to the rack, you can add a Thule cable lock (TH538 - sold separately). This cable lock features a Thule One-Key lock core that can be swapped out to make all your Thule products keyed alike. A passive security trunk strap (TH533 - sold separately) is also available to lock your bike rack to your trunk. This strap is threaded through the frame of the rack and around your trunk lid, securing the rack to your vehicle when the trunk is closed and locked.

Product looks good (haven't used it yet) and easy to install. Etrailer was awesome to deal with. Ordered the rack on a Saturday, didn't expect it to be shipped till at least Monday or Tuesday. Not only was it shipped on Saturday, Etrailer bumped the shipping priority up a notch (at no cost to me) and communicated frequently. I recieved the delivery the following Wednesday. Highly recommend using Etrailer for any of your needs, I will.96515

Not that short
July 20, 2013
I don't know why everyone is saying this skirt is super short because it's not. It's short but it's not to short. I'm like 5'7 and I got a small and it fits great, so to the people saying they are 5'5 or 5'2 don't get anything but a small. Also this skirt is not meant to be worn high wasted

Together, two separate corporate entities called Public Citizen, Inc. and Public Citizen Foundation, Inc., form Public Citizen. Both entities are part of the same overall organization, and this Web site refers to the two organizations collectively as Public Citizen.
Although the work of the two components overlaps, some activities are done by one component and not the other. The primary distinction is with respect to lobbying activity. Public Citizen, Inc., an IRS § 501(c)(4) entity, lobbies Congress to advance Public Citizen's mission of protecting public health and safety, advancing government transparency, and urging corporate accountability. Public Citizen Foundation, however, is an IRS § 501(c)(3) organization. Accordingly, its ability to engage in lobbying is limited by federal law, but it may receive donations that are tax-deductible by the contributor. Public Citizen Inc. does most of the lobbying activity discussed on the Public Citizen Web site. Public Citizen Foundation performs most of the litigation and education activities discussed on the Web site.
You may make a contribution to Public Citizen, Inc., Public Citizen Foundation, or both. Contributions to both organizations are used to support our public interest work. However, each Public Citizen component will use only the funds contributed directly to it to carry out the activities it conducts as part of Public Citizen's mission. Only gifts to the Foundation are tax-deductible. Individuals who want to join Public Citizen should make a contribution to Public Citizen, Inc., which will not be tax deductible.

Share A few kilometres north of Samandağ is the village of ÇEVLIK, easily reached by dolmuş from Samandağ town centre. In ancient times, Çevlik was the port of Seleucia ad Piera, serving Antioch, and it is from here that Paul and Barnabas are thought to have set off on their first evangelical mission to Cyprus. There are still a few ruins scattered around, including the 130-metre-long Titus ve Vespasiyanus Tüneli (open dawn–dusk; 3TL), a huge channel carved out of the hillside to prevent flooding and silting of the harbour. It's usually easy to find someone who will assist you to scramble around the huge gorge-like site (expect to leave a tip); two inscriptions at the upper end give details of its construction. Also scattered around you'll see foundations, sections of ruined wall and Roman tombs. Swimming is probably unwise, although the village beach is popular with local fishermen.

bile Wrote:Would this or the Zotac ND22 be better? Will the NG-ION really perform any better vs the extra CPU boost of the Celeron SU2300? The JW will outperform the ND22 in Graphics. The ION 1 does not support the full adobe accelerated graphics package, plus the JW has 512KB of ddr3 built in supporting the newer ion2 accelerated graphics. Which means strap in 1 GB of RAM and it is all used for apps, not gpu mem.(geforce 218 equivalent which would be almost as good as a gt210 nvidia card) And when streaming video on-line, it will use less cpu usage if you install the flashplugin-nonfree. The ion is great but the ion2 is much better. Not to mention the JW will use less power, that celeron draws about 2-3 times more watts which means more $$ as well as noisey with cpu fans due to heat prodcution with those power hungry cores. But the nd22 is a good product, just not what I would be looking for and I do have a zotac mini with dual core amd 45w cpu and ion in a build here. I prefer the JW, 1/3 the power usage and no difference in xbmc daily use including ripping BD. I can rip BD and watch a BD move at the same time with 1 GB RAM, this lil guy rocks and uses hyper threading if you use linux (Kinda like four cores, htop shows 4 cpu's). Just think what 2 gb would do, strap it down so it doesn't take off. You can overclock also if you want. (2.0Ghz cpu coupled with 13% higher graphic performance, but you don't need it) |

Thanks. More or less what I expected.
I bought the mini-top and found it to be underpowered for what I needed. So I went with a i3-2100t setup. Twice the price but I can use it to replace my old failing NAS too. Which means I've got a mini-top almost brand new for sale if anyone is interested. http://goo.gl/wNUFL |

Hey, has anyone managed to get the included remote working 100%?
I can't get play or pause to work correctly, and I would like to map some other functions to the remote, but so far, no luck. I tried following the instructions in this [xbmc-forums] thread, but it can't seem to find the device (though if i blacklist it, it stops working, so I don't know what is going on). Any suggestions? |

I had the remote working perfectly using the hid_mapper utility in the link you provided until I upgraded to 11.04. Then I just got the message that hid_mapper could not find the HID device. I'm trying XBMC Live now...

With the internal wlan chip, Atheros AR9285, I have been unable to play 1080p video over NFS without hesitation and buffering. I tried off and on for a few weekd to get satisfactory playback and nothing eliminated the buffering.
I ordered the cheapest usb wifi dongle I could find, the Airlink 101, from Meritline. I caught it on sale for $9. I wondered how well it would play with all the other USB devices (4 GB USB thumb (system) drive, internal IR, USB KB, USB Mouse) After I blacklisted the Atheros, the install was easy in Ubuntu 10.10. I could not be hapier with this setup now. I can finally put the HTPC into my cabinet and not have to trip over network cables. I agree with wha speed32219 said earlier, the internal wifi is poor. Don't expect to stream anything better than 720p with it. |

Anyone having problem with this unit?
I bought something very similar. I think it's just baiscally the same thing except this one uses DDR3 ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6856107081 This is what I have.. and have some problem with it. Linux 64 bit freezes randomly. Tried XBMCuntu and Ubuntu but they freeze and crash the whole system randomly. (Weirdly, no XBMC crash log) Tried 32 bit ubuntu, no crash but once in awhile, it pauses for about 5 seconds and resumes video. I'm guessing this could caused by over heating since whenever it happens, the fan goes crazy. Anyone got it perfectly configured? If you did, what did you do to make it stable? |

Play First, Work Later
When you bring out math manipulatives you let the kids play with them a bit so that later they can focus on the work of learning with the tool. That was my intent with our new iPads and netbooks. I have lots of ideas I want my students to try out but first I thought I'd let them play. They did ask nicely, after all. :)
I was also curious as to the apps they would gravitate to on their own. At first I was a bit surprised to see kids going to YouTube and Safari. I mean, they could do that on my iMacs. Many were content with YouTube in all of my five classes. Most did try out some apps. Doodle Buddy was a huge hit (Draw Free was popular but I saw more kids use Doodle Buddy). Rush Hour as well. I even got hooked! The chess app was quite popular. Meanderthal made kids curious but the iPads can't take pictures so they couldn't try it out. A few kids checked out Animals HD and the HD Marine Life App. I even had a few kids write a blog! Two were blogs about the iPads and one was actually the current assignment! Here are some of the kids' blogs on the iPads: iPads and Netbooks, The iPads, New iPads, and here's a blog with a Poll Daddy poll and a second student tried it too (it was extremely easy!).
What an awesome play experience! Here are the results of a Google Form asking kids which apps they liked the best.
Here's a video of their first day of play:

Galaxy Desserts Pistachio Croissants, Set of 12
- Summary
The creation of master pastry chef Jean-Yves Charon, our pistachio croissants are handcrafted using his award-winning croissant dough and creamy pistachio filling. The buttery dough is prepared, cut and filled by hand with rich pistachio paste and sprinkled with crushed pistachios. This traditional French preparation ensures that the croissants emerge from the oven flaky and golden-brown, with a tender bite and the aroma of butter and pistachio. They're easy to prepare: just allow to rise overnight, then bake.
- 12 pistachio croissants (2 lb. 6 oz. total).
- Shipped frozen.
- Made in USA.
- Use & Care
Care Instructions:
- The croissants ship frozen with dry ice, which may evaporate during shipment. This is normal. Please take care not to touch any remaining dry ice with bare hands. Upon receipt, remove croissants from the shipping container and place in the freezer where they will keep up to 6 months. Keep frozen until ready to bake.
- Place frozen croissants, rounded side up, on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover with another piece of parchment paper. Let the croissants rise at room temperature (68°F to 72°F) for 8 to 10 hours.
- Preheat an oven to 375°F.
- Remove the top piece of parchment paper. Lightly brush the tops of the croissants with egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tsp. water). Bake the croissants until puffed and golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
