Toronto 'Maple Leaf Forever' tree may be remembered through art
The city is considering holding an art competition to use wood from the famous tree, felled in a July storm, that inspired Alexander Muir's patriotic song.

The storied tree, said to be the inspiration for Alexander Muir's iconic song, The Maple Leaf Forever, may be remembered in an art competition that will salvage its remaining wood, after it was destroyed in a storm this summer.
Crowds gathered to mourn the silver giant on July 20, the morning after a severe storm struck the maple down across the road and sidewalk of 62 Laing St., where, legend says, Muir stumbled upon his inspiration almost 150 years ago.
City council is scheduled to consider a proposal in October for a $150,000 national art competition.
Details about how the competition will run and how exactly the wood will be utilized are not currently available, said city spokesman Shane Gerard, and won't be until the city's executive committee reviews the plans Sept. 24.
The city estimated in July it had received at least 50 to 100 inquiries from people who wanted to use the tree's famous wood.
Some ideas that emerged after the maple's demise included carving a city hall Speaker's podium, a gavel for the Speaker or a coffee table for the reception area.
A historic militia unit in Toronto, which claims Muir among its officers, asked for a piece of the tree to display in its museum.
A wood carvers association hoped to make a wig stand to donate to a hospital chemotherapy unit.
The Museum of Civilization in Gatineau, Que., asked to include a part of the tree in its display on the emergence of national identity.
Lovers of the historic maple can still visit its offspring just off Laing St., in Maple Leaf Forever Park.
The sapling was planted alongside a dozen others in 2000 by Bill Wrigley and Carolyn Swadron, who had feared the silver giant was dying and wanted to find a way to preserve its legacy.
Only the one survived, but, pending the art competition, it too represents another path for the tree to achieve "forever."

Using a Masonry System for your next project will help you deliver a completed, structurally sound building in the shortest period of time.
Masonry allows for more creativity and flexibility in designing projects.
The name of this residence reflects its fundamental layout. Angle forms, both in plan and elevation, have been designed in response to four critical and related objectives; 1) to minimize heat gain from direct solar exposure; 2) by way of the extensive use of clerestory bands of glass, to flood the interiors with glare-free natural light; 3) to bring in the views of the mountain backdrop, and 4) to take full indoor/outdoor advantage of the site's golf course environs.

Another fresh joint from Method Man, Ghostface Killah and Raekwon off the upcoming Wu-Massacre album. Along for the ride on this track is D-Block members Sheek Louch and Bully, and fellow Wu affiliated artist Trife Diesel. Production on this track from Scram Jones. This track definitely follows the previously released ones with the same type of flow and production that sounds like it will be constant throughout the album.
LISTEN: Method Man, Ghostface and Raekwon – "Youngstown Heist"
UPDATE: This mashup has been making the rounds lately. Usually we don't post stuff like this, but sometimes someone pulls something off so good, it's worth mentioning. Below, Ant Acid meshes A. Keys vox with Wu-Massacre's acapella, and the end result is something not unlike Mighty Mi's classic remix of Ghostface's "All That I Got Is U" – a street remix that trumps the original. Won't be on the album, unless Def Jam moves quickly.

The song is Event Horizon by I am waiting for you last summer.
What I used for the CC was Color balance im Sony Vegas. I just turned up the red and blue midtones to make it kind of purple. To give it that shiny look I used the Bump map effect in SV. You can focus the lighting as desired.

Please can you tell me more about AMVsimple what is doing and how it works ? I heard about it so many times but i don't know how it really works
The best thing about AMVSimple is it's really simple! :D
You simply render your amv in an AVI lossless format. Once the rendering is complete, open AMVSimple and import your AVI file into the software. Encode using the deluxe option. The output will be your amv in a compressed MP4 format.
What the software does basically is compresses your file while trying to maintain the best possible quality. I'm no pro on this software, so I don't know many details beyond that. More information and the download for the software can be found here:
I hope that helps. :)

Renowned producer Dr. Dre has reportedly been sued for over $1.2 million by Paramount Recordings Studios over unpaid studio sessions.
According to reports, the "Doc" missed a deadline to pay for rented studio time.
Controversial rapper Dr. Dre is being sued by Paramount Recording Studios for $1,220, 500 for breach of contract, RadarOnline.com learned on Friday. The lawsuit claims that the musician, also known as Andre Young, and his record label Aftermath Entertainment rented "recording studios and services" but failed to pay the agreed amount despite multiple invoices. According to court documents, Dr. Dre promised to pay the money owed by July 13. When the date passed, music powerhouse Paramount Recording Studios took legal action in an attempt to get their huge bill paid. (Radar Online)
Earlier this year, Dre filed a lawsuit over unpaid Chronic royalties.
Dr. Dre claims it's been 14 years since he's seen a penny from hisgame changing record, "The Chronic" — and he's belatedly waging a war against the new Death Row Records. Why you ask would the good Dr. wait so long? We're guessing there's a fear factor that has evaporated since Suge Knight is out of the picture. Dre filed the federal lawsuit against WIDEawake Death Row — which was created after Death Row filed for bankruptcy last year. In the lawsuit, Dre claims he stopped getting checks from the label after he cut and ran in '96. Dre says the new Death Row has been making lots of money by selling digital copies of "Chronic," "Chronic Re-Lit" and his greatest hits album without permission. Dre is suing for $75,000 minimum. (TMZ)
However, he later lost the court battle in California.
On Monday, a California district court tossed his claims that Death Row's release of "The Chronic Re-Lit" violated his rights of trademark and publicity. However, the judge allowed another claim — that he hasn't been paid royalties since splitting from Death Row in 1996 — to be heard. In analyzing the case, California District Court Judge Christina Snyder applied the so-called "Monty Python" rule, after a 1976 case where a defendant extensively edited the TV comedy series in order to broadcast it on television. The question was whether the changes to Dr. Dre's album were more than "cosmetic." Snyder ruled the alterations were "minor and inconsequential." She also pointed out that the image used on the cover jacket is the same photograph from the original album, instead of a more current photo, which may have gone further to imply some new endorsement. (ABC News)
Doc is currently in the studio putting together his long-awaited Detox album.
"Absolutely, I'm leaving this event and heading right to the studio," Dre said from the 23rd ASCAP Awards when asked about a Detoxrelease. "I'm getting it cracking and trying to put it out by the end of the fall. I'm trying to give everyone what they've been waiting for and make sure they're not disappointed. This it, that's all I'm doing. [The leaked 'Under Pressure' was] absolutely not [real.] I didn't get a chance to finish the record, the vocals are real rough, it's not blended right and there's not even a hook on the song. It's not done, the music's not done, it's just one of those things we have to deal with today in this business because of technology and all of that. It's real easy for somebody to steal your sh*t so what can you do?" (Hard Knock TV)

Transplants is an American punk/hip hop band formed in 1999 when Tim Armstrong of Rancid played his friend and roadie Rob Aston some beats he had made using Pro Tools and asked Rob if he would consider contributing lyrics. Initially, Tim played all the instruments, but as the project grew, he invited friends such as Matt Freeman (Rancid), Lars Frederiksen (Rancid), and Vic Ruggiero (The Slackers) to add to the sound. Before long, Tim and Rob decided to officially form a band, but to make things complete, they wanted a drummer, so Travis Barker from blink-182 was asked to join in 2002. Travis recorded all drums for the first album in about eight hours.
Tim first became inspired to work with loops and samples after being introduced to London's speed/garage scene by Kerrang! magazine writer Morat in the mid-90s.
The group's music is a combination of hip hop, reggae, drum n bass, dub, and punk, but not necessarily all at once. Although many are used sparingly throughout the album, punk and rap remain as the prominent styles. Lyrically, Rob Aston describes their songs as ranging from topics such as murder ("Quick Death") to the passing of a loved one ("Sad But True") to failed friendships ("We Trusted You").
After two years of recording, they released their debut album Transplants on Hellcat Records in October 2002. In the end, the album was recorded and mixed entirely in Tim's basement. Special guest vocalists included Eric Ozenne (Nerve Agents), Davey Havok (AFI), Danny Diablo, Lars Frederiksen (Rancid) and Brody Dalle (The Distillers, ex-wife of Tim). Brody sings on the track "Weigh On My Mind", which Tim then described as "their song".

Church offers residents new leases on life
Posted Mon 24/11/2014
Home owners in Fairy Bower, near Manly, now have the option to extend their leasehold titles. Photo: Sasha Woolley
Manly's many leasehold home owners in the highly prized Fairy Bower neighbourhood on limited 17-year titles now have the option to extend their residency until 2081.
The decision by the Catholic Church follows lobbying by locals in recent years to simply the leasehold terms to match the usual bank loan period of 20 years, but with the option to buy an extended lease beyond that.

18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
What's the best way to indicate that an aristocrat or other person of wealth has arrived at an engagement? By rolling out the red carpet, of course! Making an entrance by walking on red carpet is a symbol of both fame and luxury. It immediately identifies a person using it as someone important. Alternatively, it may be used in a Prince and Pauper story to show the Pauper is now being considered a man of upper-class stature after the switch has been made by showing him walking on this. This trope tends to come in two flavors: either the palace of the King or wealthy man will be decorated with red carpet, or a literal red carpet will be rolled out to mark his/her arrival at some event. The chance of seeing an actual red carpet being rolled out (rather than already being set on the floor when the scene begins) by servants or attendants is increased if watching an animated work. That way it is easier to show a red carpet being rolled out the exact moment the VIP sets his/her foot on the ground. This is also a luxury trope that has survived many long centuries and can be seen both in works set in older time periods and the modern day. The earliest known reference to this attention-drawing symbol is from an Ancient Greek play.

Update: THR provides another casting update, telling us that Marcia Gay Harden will play "a demanding vice president at an executive placement firm."
Dylan Kidd (Roger Dodger) is now underway on his third feature, Get a Job, previously summarized as a "multi-generational comedy about four recent college graduates who discover that their lofty expectations and the realities of adulthood are two very different things." Our last report on the picture was a big cast confirmation — Bryan Cranston, Miles Teller (Project X), Anna Kendrick, Nicholas Braun, Alison Brie, Brandon T. Jackson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and Jay Pharoah had all signed on — and our latest news follows in those footsteps.
Last night, Mintz-Plasse made a discreet tweet (rhyme possibly intended) and let it be known that John Cho (Harold & Kumar, Star Trek) has been brought on to the film, presumably to share some of his comedic stylings. Anything about his character or the extent of the role were not shared — despite our best wishes, that is — but it's nevertheless nice to hear.
You can also check out some set photos tweeted by Mintz-Plasse, featuring Teller, Braun, and Jackson (via Collider):
Moving on, Variety has news that Carlos Miranda (Warrior) will be coming on board Sofia Coppola's quickly-assembling The Bling Ring. This makes him only one of multiple talents in on the picture, with the cast already being led by Emma Watson, Leslie Mann, Taissa Farmiga, Israel Broussard, Katie Chang, Claire Pfister, and Georgia Rock.
Based on the Vanity Fair story The Suspects Wore Louboutins, Bling Ring focuses on a nefarious group of teenage girls who, in real-life instances, "stole thousands to millions of dollars worth of belongings from celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom, Rachel Bilson and Lindsay Lohan." Shooting is expected to commence in the next few months, making a 2013 release the likely target.
Do you see either addition making an impact on the overall film? How do you feel about the projects themselves?

Reforming the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem: A Study on Barriers to Growth in Tunisia and Egypt
Article at a glance
- This article summarizes the main barriers to entry and growth as experienced by entrepreneurs and business owners in Egypt and Tunisia, and looks at regional differences within each country, differences between formal and informal enterprises, and differences by gender of business owners.
- Top barriers to growth in 2013 were reported to be political instability and public disorder, administrative inefficiency, and restrained access to finance. Even among formal businesses, informal mechanisms often compensate for the absence of effective state institutions and the rule of law.
- Administrative reforms and deeper investments in infrastructure and human capital are needed to build the business-friendly ecosystem needed to generate jobs, grow the economy, and create opportunities for all citizens

China's Market Reforms Drive Private Association Development
China's introduction of economic reforms in 1978 gave the private sector greater control over the economy, but under an official state ideology that severely restricted citizens from organizing or participating in the policy-making process, any business associations that existed then were most likely adjuncts of the government with no accountability to their membership. In recent years, though, private business associations have begun to develop at the local level in cities all over China as the result of the government's need to reduce spending combined with the desire of private entrepreneurs to translate their newly created wealth into an enhanced role in the policy-making process. These newly formed voluntary membership associations enjoy financial independence and focus on networking, information dissemination, and business facilitation, but they also provide members with access to government officials, thereby creating a forum for a public-private dialogue. Though hesitant to confront the government as differences of opinion on policy matters are uncovered, associations will have to transition into policy advocates or risk losing membership.Read more...
Local Knowledge and Institutional Reform
Neoclassical economics fails to explain how countries can achieve economic growth because it was designed to talk about how well-developed markets work, but many countries have a fundamental problem in that their markets are not well-developed. Economic development depends on getting the right economic and political institutions in place that provide incentives for people to be productive. The most important of these institutions are well-defined property rights and a legal system that will enforce contracts and agreements. Because institutions represent local beliefs, values, history, and conditions, successful reforms must employ local knowledge.Read more...
Latin America's Alternative: Reversing the Paradigm of Underdevelopment
Despite the liberalizing reforms of the past decade, the countries of Latin America have failed to secure stable political systems and sustainable, open economies. The region seems unable to break out of a pattern in which it veers between dictatorships and nascent democracies, lacking the core elements of prosperity: a functioning, impartial judicial system, property rights, and full rights for women and the region's impoverished majorities. The reason for this instability lies in Latin America's institutions – the moral and behavioral rules that guide citizens' actions. The paradigm of underdevelopment includes ideas handed down through Latin Americans' early education that include a fatalistic attitude toward politics and economics that bars one generation after another from honestly evaluating and resolving the intransigent state of Latin American development. Well-trained teachers represent the first option for transforming this paradigm into a paradigm of progress. In addition, the media, politicians, and other opinion leaders must band together to push for a broad public discussion of this issue in Latin America.Read more...
Гражданское общество и «гражданская» экономика: акционерное управление в следующем десятилетии
Современный деловой мир испытывает острую потребность в новом организующем принципе, который бы учитывал новые формы экономического роста, проливал свет на механизмы, доселе скрытые, и расширял круг рядовых участников экономического процесса. « Гражданской экономике» требуются институты, подобные тем, которые необходимы для создания сильного гражданского общества. В этом новом обществе владельцы предприятий, подотчетные миллионам своих акционеров и вкладчиков, посредством ответственного управления ведут компании к стабильности и процветанию. Аналогично гражданскому обществу, гражданская экономика одновременно создается ответственным руководством и обеспечивает ответственное руководство. Главная задача здесь – создание институтов, которые совместят в себе свободную торговлю и ответственность и оказались жизнеспособными в условиях стремительной глобализации.Read more...
The Road to Democratization in China: A Path to Legitimacy and Modernization
China has enjoyed two decades of successful economic modernization which have given the government a possible foundation for popular legitimacy based on results – not ideology. But political reform is necessary to continue this process even further. The government should allow for the circulation of positive, constructive ideas, but the people have a responsibility to avoid flooding the vehicles of public discourse with simple complaints. The process of democratization in China will take decades, but slow progress is acceptable so long as it does not stop.Read more...

Wonderful biscotti! I used gluten free flour (1/3 white rice flour, 1/3 sweet rice flour, 1/3 tapioca starch and 1 teaspoon xanthan gum) which worked great, just like the "normal" thing. Didn't change anything else and will definitely make them again! Thanks for posting!

These are the most authentic Cantuccini di Prato that I've ever made. Best to rough chop the almonds first. Make sure the loaves are 12 " long and 2" wide and about 1" high. Cool completely and slice carefully..about 1/4"-1/2" thick before they go back into the oven.people found this review Helpful. You can only vote others' reviews helpful or not helpful...

I can't believe that I'm the first to try these wonderful cookies! Aside from using sliced almonds because I didn't have any whole ones I used Splenda for the sugar and just egg white for the egg. I made a 20 cookie amount and got 16. I guess that I could have cut them a touch thinner but I didn't want to, lol. These not to sweet cookies (if you want sweet cookies you'll need to add more sugar or Splenda) are hard to put down! I ate 2 just so that I could review them (yeah, right!) and it was hard not to grab 6 more. I used the min times given for both bakings and that worked perfectly for me. The small size will fit beautifully into my coffee cup :D. Made for ZWT4people found this review Helpful. You can only vote others' reviews helpful or not helpful... Was this review helpful to you?

An end-of-story memorial service given by a support or surviving major character in memory of less fortunate characters. May serve as a handy explanation of what would otherwise be a Gainax Ending to wrap things up and tell you that no, the heroes are not "just hiding", or merely an emotive, tragic summative on the sorry affair. See The Hero Dies and Kill 'em All for what may lead to this kind of ending being needed. May be used to prevent a Gainax Ending. Bittersweet Endings are the most common to feature this. See also To Absent Friends, which is closely related. Note that this is both an Ending Trope and a Death Trope, so expect major spoilers... especially since the appearance of this trope is an indication that the main character might have bought it.

MADRE News
Giving Women Farmers in Sudan the Seeds to Grow the Future
Posted on: Monday, June 11, 2012
Keywords: Sudan, Economic Justice, Food Sovereignty
We recently had the pleasure of hosting our partner Fatima Ahmed, the head of our sister organization in Sudan, Zenab for Women in Development. During her visit, Fatima talked to us about Zenab's remarkable achievements over the past year—and we'd like to share some of her updates with you!
Zenab empowers women farmers to fight for resources usually reserved for men. Through our partners, MADRE provides them with what they need to grow food for their families. Last year, Zenab provided women farmers with the seeds, tools and training to increase their harvest, which benefitted nearly 3,000 women in 53 communities throughout Eastern Sudan. Its profits were immediately put to use to combat poverty and hunger, drastically improving community health and nutrition.
For example, one of Zenab's cooperatives used the harvest's profits to build a well, a vital addition to the community. It provided families with access to crucial supplies of clean water, and spared countless women the grueling, hours-long journey to fetch clean water.
Fatima also informed us that Zenab launched a successful micro-financing loan service, enabling hundreds of women to rent land and sell their crops. Many women are using these profits to send their children to school.
One local woman farmer, Atoma, started with Zenab. As a result of Zenab's micro-lending and support, as Fatima said, Atoma "no longer needs our help!"
But in spite of Zenab's many accomplishments, Fatima is always brainstorming ways to move forward. Next year, she aims to introduce new crops, better seeds, improved tools and new production techniques to increase their harvest. She is confident that women will use these profits to pay for their daughters' educations—breaking the cycle of poverty and increasing their chances for further political, economic and social empowerment.
Sudanese women farmers hold the key to the future of their communities. For centuries, they have harvested and cultivated the food their families need to survive. And now, thanks to Fatima and Zenab's dedication, they have never had a stronger voice. We thank Fatima for her visit—and can't wait to hear what news she brings next!

It is my choice and the choice of my wife and son to bowl at copperfield bowling alley northwest of houston. This is outside the city limits so they are not controlled by houston no smoking laws. To cut to the chase... The smoke is so heavy in the bowling alley that your clothes and hair and body have extemely strong odor of smoke. Everyone i talk to that doesnt smoke has ill effects the next day or two from the second hand smoke there. Some people that smoke have a cigarette burning continuously and i have see some people carry in 2 packs of cigarettes. We bowl there because of the friends and convenience of location and other factors. It is a shame that we may have to give up this part of our life due to the danger that is imposed on our lungs etc. I have headaches the next day and my voice sounds raspy and hoarse the day after i bowl. Why couldnt the smokers go to the enclosed bar area or use one of the meeting rooms to destroy your lungs and shorten your life instead of dragging innocent people with them. When a smoker overhears non smokers talking about the possible new HB400 act, they act as if you are insulting them. It has been 24 hours since i have been at the bowling alley and i am still coughing and have a headache from the smoke.
Share Your Story

Whatever your experience is with secondhand smoke or the illness related to smoking, we want to hear it and share it with others on our website and in our advocacy efforts to make smoke-free workplaces a reality in Texas.

The blonde beauty walked away with award for her Broadway debut in A View From The Bridge earlier this month (Jun10), but she wasn't allowed to enjoy the big win - theatre snobs in New York publicly insisted she wasn't a worthy victor, suggesting she was only hired to attract film fans.
Now the Iron Man 2 star has responded to her critics, insisting she spent years perfecting her craft to get to where she is - and she is adamant she was the right person for her winning role.
She tells BroadwayWorld.com, "I pounded the pavement for years and I know what it's like to struggle as an actor... So, I totally understand the frustration there.
"A lot of my friends, who are struggling actors, are going through the same thing. But I can't apologise for it. I have worked my a** off to get to where I am, so I understand that struggle.
"For me, it's more about hiring the right person for the job. You know, who fits that description. If somebody is cast because they are a name but they're not right for the job, well, it's very frustrating. I see that. As an actor, you're trying to get one foot in the door all the time."
