How to Be Happier At Home: Tips from Gretchen Rubin
Ways to make the ordinary extraordinary.
But what if you're less driven than Rubin? No problem, she says. Often, the solutions for a happier life are simple ones, resulting from a few moments of thought and follow-through, she explains. "They don't really take extra time," she says. "There's a mindfulness component," and "most of these things are very reinforcing."
[See Stressed Out? Try Mindfulness Meditation]
For example, each time her kids interrupted her while she was working in her home office, she would snap at them—a response that filled her with enormous regret. She considered the cycle and realized that if they simply knocked first, she'd feel less disturbed. Knocking instituted. Problem solved.
What else? Rubin created a family practice of giving "warm greetings and farewells" upon leaving and coming back home—a rule that everyone embraced, so to speak. She emulated a friend's ritual of making festive holiday breakfasts. A few minutes of adding green food coloring to the morning meal on St. Patrick's Day filled the girls with glee—and bragging rights at school. She faced her fear of driving to unload the sole burden from her husband and found that, although she doesn't much like it, she can drive if need be. And she decided to take control of "the cubicle in her pocket," the wireless devices that worsened her sense of responsibility to be working all the time. "I always feel pressed for time, as if someone were shoving a pistol in my back and muttering 'Move, move, move!'" she writes. So off these devices go, when it comes to family time or traveling (the latter tends to spark "Aha!" moments, as indicated by the city bus ride.)
The goal of mastery threads through the book and reflects its consummate goal: taking control over one's contentedness. Rubin's inspiration comes from philosophers like Samuel Johnson, one of her heroes, and her writing aims to emulate such literature, which muses on the human condition. But when it comes to happiness, Rubin counters the view of many of the great luminaries, who argue that happiness is a byproduct, not a goal. "We're more likely to hit a target by aiming at it than by ignoring it, and happiness is no different," she writes. "At least in my case, I found that thinking directly about how to be happier helped me to discover the changes likely to build happiness."
Rubin crafts mantras to optimize areas of home life like time ("cram my day with what I love") and parenthood ("pay attention"). But she insists that these ideas are not revelatory. "It's not like I'm holding out some magical set of answers," Rubin says. No. She provides something infinitely more valuable: practical application of universal aphorisms. And for many of her readers, borrowing a tip of hers here and there can help them attain some of that mastery and joy in daily life.
That quest, to take hold of life and hold it still, is what inspires people to take photographs or create works of art. In Rubin's case, it's to write a book on mastering life—in all of its mundane majesty.

Campus Strictness:
I have not had any problems with the rules on campus. Clearly stated when you enter as a student. But all policies are consistent.
Campus Strictness:
No alcohol policy on campus and everything is tolerable and fair across the board.
Campus Strictness:
I am a commuter, but when I am on campus everything runs smoothly.
Campus Strictness:
There really aren't many rules on campus. It is a "dry campus" but the punishments for having alcohol on campus are minimal to nothing. There isn't a dress code, room check, curfew, lights out time, or quiet hour (except during finals). Pretty much they just care where you park and some teachers care that you come to class. I love the school, but they definitely aren't strict.
Campus Strictness:
Our school is really strict on being a dry campus No alcohol at any time. Our schools academic is really good the teachers are always willing to help and there are plenty of tutors and places to go to get help.

POP - Post Office Protocol
(1) POP is short for Post Office Protocol, a protocol used to retrieve e-mail from a mail server. Most e-mail applications (sometimes called an e-mail client) use the POP protocol, although some can use the newer IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol).
There are two versions of POP. The first, called POP2, became a standard in the mid-80's and requires SMTP to send messages. The newer version, POP3, can be used with or without SMTP.
(2) Pop is short for point of presence, an access point to the Internet. ISPs have typically multiple POPs. A point of presence is a physical location, either part of the facilities of a telecommunications provider that the ISP rents or a separate location from the telecommunications provider, that houses servers, routers, ATM switches and digital/analog call aggregators.
(3) Pop is short for Programmed Operator (POP), a pseudo-opcode in a virtual machine language executed by an interpretive program. The Programmed Operator instructions provide the ability to define an instruction set for efficient encoding by calling subprograms into primary memory.
(4) POP is short for picture-outside-picture POP is a feature found on some televisions that allows the user to divide the screen into two same-size pictures, enabling you to view a second program. Compare with picture-in-picture (PIP).

I have started a little language project since i am danish and own a iTouch and a iPhone and would like to have the danish language on the iPhone and i want to give this information on to others.
So far they are v1.1.1, i have unlocked them both and taken a full copy/backup of the iTouch and iPhone.
You can get the iTouch files here:
First do this (taken from another place on this forum).
How to enable international keyboard:
Download and Edit the M68AP.plist file in
under <key>international</key>
change <false/> to <true/>
and upload it again.
Reboot the iPhone.
On the iPhone goto "Settings->General".
You will find the new topic "International" - set it to your choice.
My first test is the calendar (MobileCal.app)
What i have done is copy InfoPlist.strings and Localizable.strings
from iTouch \Applications\MobileCal.app\da.lproj\
to iPhone \Applications\MobileCal.app\English.lproj\
Now the calendar have the danish language.
Instead of da.lproj, you just use you language folder.
Here is a list of the standard applications and status.
Calculator.app - only in english
DemoApp.app - only in english
MobileAddressBook.app - no lang in file
MobileCal.app - working
MobileMusicPlayer.app - working

SpringBoard.app in \System\Library\CoreServices\SpringBoard.app\ - working
but since not all that apps are on the iTouch (Stocks, Maps, Weather) there is no languages for them.
The weird thing is that SMS and Camera has languages but the apps is not on the iTouch...
EAP-RSA.ppp in \System\Library\Extensions\EAP-RSA.ppp\ - got lang...
but i do not know what it is, think it is for the VPN.

The roll call will last throughout the day until all of the names are read.


text: For Immediate ReleaseEditorial Contact: Megan Lueders, LifeSize - USA +1-512-623-4151 email@example.com Family Health Centers Optimize Staff and Services with LifeSize® High Definition Video CommunicationsLifeSize® Room™ Brings Together Physicians, Dentists, and Other Medical Providers and Administrators across Six Colorado Counties for Meetings, Training Sessions and Patient Consultations Austin, Texas, March 12 2007LifeSize®, the high definition video communications company, today announced that Salud Family Health Centers is optimizing their staff and services with LifeSize high definition video communications. Salud implemented LifeSize® Room™ systems across the six counties it serves throughout North Central and Northeastern Colorado in order to bring together physicians, dentists, and other medical providers and administrators for various meetings, training sessions and patient consultations. LifeSize Room is a high definition video communications product that allows geographically distributed participants in multiple locations to experience more effective, true-to-life interactions. Salud operates fourteen clinics in nine very diverse communities encompassing six thousand square miles – some in very rural areas – so Salud physicians would travel 150 miles or more between locations for required meetings and appointments. Commute times and associated expenses, as well as lost productivity and client interactions, led to Salud evaluating videoconferencing solutions that would enable the Centers to realize greater overall efficiencies. "As we evaluated a number of videoconferencing options, quality and investment protection were key considerations for determining the right solution," said John Santistevan, CFO of Salud Family Health Centers. "We have been very pleased with our decision to implement LifeSize high definition video communications due to the quality of the transmissions and cost savings opportunities." Salud uses LifeSize Room systems to conduct approximately ten videoconferencing sessions each month with attendees in various locations. These interactions include compliance and certification trainings such as HIPAA and OSHA, client consultations and recently even a review of Salud's Avian Flu preparedness plan. LifeSize Room provides multimedia sharing so that all meeting attendees can see each other and various content simultaneously, thus allowing participants to stay focused and engaged just as if they were in the same physical location. "Video communications in real time encourages the type of lively interaction that you find when everyone is meeting in the same room," said Jennifer Morse, development director at Salud Family Health Centers. As a result of LifeSize Room, Salud has reduced travel costs since staff members no longer need to go from clinic-to-clinic to accomplish what can be done effectively over video instead. Salud's physicians, dentists and other medical providers are able to focus even more on their patients, which have subsequently increased patient outreach and related revenue. LifeSize high definition video communications will also allow Salud the opportunity to cost-effectively expand its training curriculum and, in the future, extend the Centers' reach to other outside medical facilities for enhancing patient care. "Telemedicine is becoming a significant high definition video communications application given the many different ways it has a positive impact on the quality of life," said Craig Malloy, CEO of LifeSize. "Salud is very representative of LifeSize telemedicine customers that are benefiting from this progressive technology by providing improved and enhanced services to their constituents while also increasing their operational efficiencies and bottom-lines." LifeSize Room, with its patent-pending industrial design and high definition technology, offers the very best price-to-performance available on the market. By delivering higher video quality at all bandwidths, LifeSize Room enables every type of business around the world to realize a greatly enhanced user experience. About Salud Family Health Centers Salud Family Health Center is a Community Health Center that provides health care to the low-income, medically undeserved population. Salud is an extensive primary health care delivery system with 14 community, migrant, teen, children and women's health clinics in nine service sites in northeastern and north central Colorado and in six counties. Salud has developed collaborations with area hospitals, physician groups, mental health agencies, and health departments to insure a strong referral system and access to a variety of services for patients. Salud promotes prevention and early intervention, thus keeping underinsured or uninsured individuals out of hospital emergency rooms. Salud employs over 390 people, including providers. In 2006, Salud provided health care services to 66,000 patients through 230,000 patient visits. Salud is dedicated to maintaining high standards of performance. Salud has received accreditation, with commendation, by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). About LifeSize LifeSize is a pioneer and world leader in high-definition video collaboration. Designed to make video conferencing truly universal, our full range of open standards-based systems offer enterprise-class, IT-friendly technologies that enable genuine human interaction over any distance. Founded in 2003 and acquired by Logitech in 2009, LifeSize, with its commitment to relentless innovation, continues to extend the highest-quality video conferencing capabilities to anyone, anywhere.

Writing for Bloomberg, Tom Randall has the details:
Now the state's "Committee on Energy and Environment" is proposing a law that would prohibit spending on anything that won't set Kansas on a course to self-destruction. House Bill No. 2366 would ban all state and municipal funds for anything related to "sustainable development," which it defines as: "development in which resource use aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for generations to come."
He adds:
It's a common misperception that sustainability is only about making sacrifices. When done right, sustainability, by definition, actually makes money -- in the long run and often in the short run, too. Corporations that track sustainability objectives have been shown to outperform those that don't. They are better suited to manage risk and identify cost savings, and often have easier access to capital.
For the record, Alabama has a lot of nature to sustain.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of East Texas (BGCET) believes that every child deserves an opportunity to be great, to have hope, and to reach their full potential. During the school year, BGCET partners with Tyler, Bullard, and Lindale Independent School Districts, becoming an extension of their elementary and middle schools to provide on-campus afterschool programs where children are safe, loved, mentored, and given homework support, tutorial help, nourishing meals, and enrichment activities. The BGCET Center is a safe haven in North Tyler for children in the critical years of ages five through 12, and more than 600 children are served in this facility daily. BGCET strives to build a strong foundation in the lives of children in our community while giving parents and guardians peace of mind knowing their children are being supervised by caring adults.
Deanna Sims serves as the board chair-elect for the BGCET Board of Directors and has worked with the board to recently change its charter to a religious organization which better describes the values on which the organization was founded.
"The BGCET's avenue of service is primarily through afterschool programs and summer camps, but we are working to expand our reach through volunteer mentoring programs as well,"Mrs. Sims said. "We will be spending the next year inviting our community to invest financially in what we hope will be transformational programs for these children."
Outside of her service to BGCET, Mrs. Sims serves as the board secretary for the Kyle Lake Foundation. She is a sustaining member of the Junior League of Tyler, Inc., where she serves as an advisor and is a past president. Mrs. Sims is a Leadership Tyler Class XIV alumna and a member of the Baylor Women's Council of Tyler. She is a past member of the Tyler Independent School District Parent Teacher Association Board of Directors and the Women's Symphony League of Tyler.
"The blessings I have received throughout my life have been great motivation for me to serve others," Mrs. Sims said. "I look for projects that seem to match my gifts and abilities with the needs of our community. I don't consider volunteerism a job but a joy that will continue to grow. I pray God will keep providing me avenues of service for as long as I live."
Born in Houston, Texas, Mrs. Sims has resided in Tyler for 38 years. She is a graduate of John Tyler High School and received her bachelor's degree from Baylor University. Mrs. Sims is employed as the assistant vice president for university advancement at The University of Texas at Tyler. She and her husband, Steve, have been married for 32 years and are the parents of two adult daughters.
"Tyler is a generous community and responds readily to those in need. When I served as president of the Junior League of Tyler, Inc. in 2000, I learned that Tyler is known throughout the nation for its generosity. That reputation is one of which we can be very proud," Mrs. Sims said.

european groups: exposing the real impacts of agrofuels
The European Union's policy to increase the use of biofuels (labelled agrofuels by Friends of the Earth and others because of the damaging, industrial scale on which they are produced) is inherently unsustainable. At the end of 2008 the EU adopted a mandatory 10% renewable energy target for transport, to be reached by 2020. If this target is met through the use of agrofuels, it is likely to drive deforestation, and damage the environment as land is cleared for agrofuels feedstock production. It is also expected to create more greenhouse gas emissions, increase hunger, and encourage rampant land-grabbing in the South.
In November 2009, Friends of the Earth Europe and a range of other European NGOs co-published "Biofuels - Handle with care", which analyzes the EU's biofuel policy in detail. The report highlights the failure to account for the environmental impact of indirect land use change when calculating greenhouse gas benefits, meaning there is a substantial risk that the current EU biofuel policy will cause more harm than good.
This was followed by another publication, "Losing the plot," published in December 2009. This publication is specifically about jatropha, an agrofuel crop that can be grown on poor soil. The agrofuels industry argues that this means it can be cultivated without impacting food production. But there is mounting evidence that fertile land is being turned over to jatropha production, meaning that there is less land available to grow food. Friends of the Earth Europe's report adds to that evidence. It looks specifically at the impact of India's jatropha production on rural communities in the state of Chhattisgarh. In this traditional rice-growing region, thousands of tribal and lower caste Indians have been forced off community lands which they have relied on for generations.
FoE Germany / BUND, together with human rights and development NGOs, also delivered 10,000 signatures to the Colombian Embassy in Berlin, to protest against the continuing human rights abuses in Colombia, which the expansion of the palm oil industry is fuelling.
A more effective way to reduce greenhouse gases and secure energy supply is to reduce demand, improve efficiency and develop sustainable transport systems. Agrofuels are no substitute for these priorities.

text: Explore The Southwest New Mexico Arizona Utah Nevada Share The legendary Wild West town of TOMBSTONE lies 22 miles south of I-10 on US-80, 67 miles southeast of Tucson. Over a century has passed since its mining heyday, but "The Town Too Tough to Die" clings to an afterlife as a tourist theme park. With its dusty streets, wooden sidewalks and swinging saloon doors, it's barely unchanged. While it's much more commercialized than its counterpart in New Mexico, Lincoln, it's also more fun. The moody gunslingers who stroll the streets these days are merely rounding up customers to watch them fight, but there's enough genuine rivalry between groups to give the place an oddly appealing edge. The ideal time to visit is during Helldorado Days in late October (w http://www.helldoradodays.com), a bonanza of parades and shoot-outs, when the air is cooler and the sun less harsh.

It's anyone here fan of F1 racing??
I'm a big one, I have watced every race since I was 6, so it's pretty long time....
....two weeks left till Melbourne and I'm pretty excited, and I really looking foward to new season[:D]...
...if you are watcing F1, wich driver you love the most, or wich team you support?
Well on this I'm not agree with you the most, I like Ferrari to, and I think Ferrari is the best team, and I was always been a big fan of Michael Schumacher and Ferrari, but I don't like Alonso, I don't like him at all, and he is not beautiful to me...
....I like Massa and Kimmi alot, but for me the best is Lewis Hamilton, I like that guy so much, he is great, and hope he will gett title this year, Kimi deserves it last year, but I will be more happier if Lewis will get the title next season........
BEST TEAM: FERRARI (forever and ever )
BEST DRIVER: LEWIS HAMILTON ( that guy is so great, I started to be a big fan when he crushed on Nurbergring last year )
.... but it's O.K everyone is diferent and I respect everyones choice....
...Come on F1 fanatics, I want chainge my toughts with you!!!!![:D]
Lewis Hamilton the best!!!
It's okey, no problem Nicole!
Lewis Hamilton is a great driver, and the last year he couldn't won the tittle in Brazil........but Ferrari is is the best team, for ever and ever......
I miss Schumacher a lot!!!!!!
Hey Nicole, Do you like the NBA, football, and hockey on grass???? I play hockey on grass in my country, it's a very popular!!!!!
thanks for comment I like kimmi to...but....
I like Kimi too!! and I love the Nba, my favourite team is Los Angeles Lackers, and I like Cleveland Cavaliers and San Antonio Spurs!!!!
and about Hockey on grass, I love it, and this a picture of LAS LEONAS, they are from my country and they're the sencond in the world rakking
you like kimi but......(pls continue[:D])
That's a nice artwork you got there. Did you make it?
Before I was a Schummy fan but last year I really liked Hamilton and I think he should have won but he had some issues with his team (Alonso) so there was no "teamwork" between the two. Both guys wanted to be number and I don't blame Alonso for that. Alonso was signed by McLaren Mercedes to be the main man but instead this rookie stepped up to the plate and showed everyone that he should have been the main man.
One question. What's Alonso's team this season?
Alonso will be in renault again ( he is bach to his old team ), and testing says that Hamiton is 2 seconds quicker than Alonso.....
...I think this year would be Hamilton's, and Alonso will not be in championship race, Ferrari will be great to this season, but testing says all, mclaren and Hamilton is the best......13 more days to go till first race, I'm so excited..
....I didn't make it, I wish I am, but I didn't, I found it on some web page, and I like it
Go Lewis!!!
well...my favorite is Michael Schumacher.....
Then I like the San Antonio Spurs a lot! and the Cleveland Cavaliers and Denver Nuggets![:D]
Go Ginobili!
Yes, Ginobilli is a great man and excellent player!!!!! I'm a fan of him!!!!
oh Alan Iverson play in Denver Nuggets!!!!!!! He's a great player!!!!!
And What's your favourite football team?
I like F1 too!Since a year ago aprox.
My favourite pilot is Fernando Alonso, he has born in the same zone of Spain, ASTURIAS, and I think he's a great pilot. He have changed a lot, he was really friendly and maybe now is more rude, but he still beeing a great racer.
This season, Renault is a bit worse than the other one (like Ferrari, or McLaren), but I think it will be really interesting!
before i like schumacher now its kimmi and alonso[:D]
in basketball..Golden State Warriors(cause i live in the bay area[:D]) and LA LAkers
yes, Alonso and Kimmi are inteligents drivers, I like Lewis because he's a young driver and excellent driver!!!!
Si Jesu Alonso cambio un poco con respecto a los ñaos anteriores pero su equipo lo obligo a cambiar de pensamientos al depositar toda su confianza en Lewis!!!
Ferrari 4EVER AND EVER!!!
Hey Alwysdreaming, what's your name???' Golden State won vs Portland Blazers........ In Golden State plys Stephen Jackson is a good play [:)]
yeah, kimi and alonso[:D] sophie you can call me kat[:D] yup, golden states won against portland:) stephenjackson is a good player and i heard he can speak spanish...If the golden state will be on the playoffs, i'm going to watch them live for sure!
Yeah! you said it! He's one of the best!!!!
Iverson's one of my favorites too.....I like L. James too!!! Jumps really high! wow!

Nice day, good bikes.
|Apr 14, 2014 Susan British Columbia, Canada
Nice park to bike ride in
Paths are off limits for bikes so had to stay on the bike lane, which is a one way loop about 6 miles long. We went with the 2 hour rental which felt a little rushed, could have used longer! Great deal though!
|Apr 08, 2014 Robyn NH, United States
The tour was fantastic!!!!
|Dec 09, 2013 Aoife Ireland
Tour guide Stan was amazing! I was not expecting such an experienced and knowledgeable tour guide. The tour was fairly flexible and we were able to cater certain stops depending on what I wanted to see. Stan definitely knows the city and has so many insightful and well thought out stories. I highly recommend seeing him (he's also a contractor). The only down side to my experience was actually booking/ day of the tour experience with the shop keepers. I provided my Travelzoo voucher and they seemed to think that it was only for a two-hour bike rental, not a tour. Not until I asked them to double check did they allow me on the tour/ call the guide. They seemed to be a little hard to work with at first, but once I mentioned it was my first time in NYC and I had caught the red eye that AM, they seemed to warm up to me.
|Nov 25, 2013 Katherine Washington, United States
The tour guide was not very much of a tour guide. He did not tell us very much about the park. We would have been better renting bikes and going on our own.
The bikes were good

The English had their martyr –Emily Davison who threw herself in front of the King's horse to bring attention to the cause of Votes for Women. In the U.S., Inez Milholland was well known for riding a horse in suffrage parades. Milholland died on the campaign trail when barnstorming in the West. She was known as the couragous woman who died with the word of "Liberty" on her lips. Suffragists repeated her words often when confronting U.S. President Woodrow Wilson: "Mr. President, how long must women wait for liberty?"

Dr. M. Wendy Hennequin (Associate Professor of English, Tennessee State University-Nashville) presents
"God for Harry, Hogwarts, and St. George: How J.K. Rowling Uses Medieval Saints' Lives in the Harry Potter Series"
DATE: Thursday, March 7, 2013
TIME: 5:00 p.m.-6:00 p.m.
PLACE: USI Education Building, room 1101
Synopsis: J.K. Rowling borrows ideas, tropes, and conventions from many types of literature, but did you know that the Harry Potter series uses tropes and plot structures from medieval saints' stories? Dr. Hennequin will reveal how Rowling most significantly uses the plots of saints' stories when Harry fights Voldemort in the Chamber of Secrets and the Goblet of Fire (the second and fourth novels), and when Neville fights Voldemort in The Deathly Hallows. By using these saints' plots, Rowling reveals character, reinforces the core values of the texts, and identifies Harry with saints to reassure us of his inevitable victory.This Medieval Studies Forum lecture is made possible by the mutual support of the University of Southern Indiana English Department and College of Liberal Arts. The MSF is organized by Dr. S. Elizabeth Passmore, Associate Professor of English.
What is the Medieval Studies Forum?
The USI Medieval Studies Forum sponsors presentations by faculty and students at the University of Southern Indiana and faculty and independent scholars from elsewhere. The forum was created in the fall of 2006 as a place where faculty, staff, students, and members of the community can gather in a friendly and informal environment to learn about a variety of medieval topics ranging across disciplines such as literature, art history, history, gender studies, and material culture.
We are on Facebook! Join the "Medieval Studies Forum" site for updates and upcoming events.
USI STUDENTS: Get involved in the student organization, "Medieval Studies Society" (also on Facebook)! See Bonnie Hobgood (bjhobgood) or Dr. Passmore for more details, or stop by our new clubroom in OC3047.

- Midnight Shift

- Privacy Policy
While Kaye (Darker Than Wax) may be a scene stalwart from back in the day, he remains a key innovator today with new toys and projects constantly adding to his repertoire and bag of tricks. Catch him perform an exclusive live set exploring a techier side just for Midnight Shift. Watch his 'lil teaser video 'Control Shift' here for a clue.
So how did you actually get started?
I was originally a saxophonist, and like most saxophonists starting out, I wanted to play Jazz. Jazz music was my original influence that got me into music in the first place. Miles Davis changed everything for me when I was 14 years old! At that time I told myself that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I'm just very glad and grateful that music is my career. My goals may have changed, but the endgame hasn't.
How was the scene back then from what you came from and how has it changed?
If you're talking about venues for underground dance music, oddly enough I'd say there was more options back then. There was of course the grand dame, Zouk, Liquid Room, Nox, Insomnia, Centro, Home Club. This was all in the first few years of my career. Right now I can only think of Home Club and Blu Jaz. And of course Zouk's still around, but it has evolved dramatically. Changes in the clubbing environment, market pressures, steeper competition all contributed to the shift in our clubbing landscape. There are so many more clubs now. More so than when I began, but ironically there's still not much diversity. This current trend of "luxe" clubs with all your much touted "bottle service" or "exclusivity" just rubs me the wrong way. In the past people opened clubs with music as the priority. At least those that featured more underground genres of dance music. You hired the right team of DJs to style the sound of your club.
These days if you still want to open a club with music as the priority, you need to balance that very consciously with strong business muscle. So things in a way, I feel, are much more calculated now. Some people may say it could be the sign of business owners being more experienced and maturing, but I just can't help but feel that the gung ho spirit of the past isn't really there anymore. I'm not saying it was better then. No one wants to get burned in business. It's just very different now, and I think the immense cost of starting up a club today is a very real factor in club owners not wanting to take too much risks.
Type of people you hate or don't get?
I generally stay away from people who take themselves too seriously. Shallow and vain people don't really do well in my books too.
If you could live anywhere where would you go?
I've never really dreamt of living anywhere else, to be honest. Wherever you live, you're going to have to deal with a different set of problems. That being said I think Brazil, Cuba, Spain, Germany, Jamaica, would all be nice. For awhile.
How do you approach your music making and playing?
I'm not trained in music, so the computer is very central when I practice, or produce. It is a great aid in helping my figure out stuff I never really learnt, like chords, progressions, etc. There's no hard and fast rule when I'm creating something. A chord could inspire me, or a sound, a bassline, a drum pattern, a sample, a snippet from a movie. Anything, really. I just find a way to process it in my head and poop something out at the other end.
How would you rate yourself as a DJ, Musician and Producer?
There are many areas where I know I can still improve as all three. I'll leave it to the person listening to me to rate me, but I know where I stand.
Describe your relationship with your other Cosa Nostra half, Dean?
We're very different people, but somehow when we come together to make music, whether live or in the studio, it somehow works. And we've outlasted so many bands and outfits here in Singapore, so I think that speaks for itself.
Best thing about your job? And the worst?
I'm not stuck at a desk facing the same people everyday. I get to see a lot of things people of my social/financial status don't get to see, so I'm grateful for that opportunity to observe others, and that usually just affirms certain principles in my life so I know I'm on the right track. The worst part of the job is when my phone doesn't ring. Many would feel the opposite of what I'm saying now, but it's true. If I don't get calls, it means I'm not getting a gig. And that's not good for the pocket.
Any music peeps you respect and admire? Why?
Miles Davis still always tops my list. He was always at the forefront of any major development in Jazz music. He wasn't one of those cats that would gain great success at something, then just stay there doing that same something everyone loved him for, for the rest of his life, like some circus monkey. He had an uncanny knack for assembling the right sidemen for the band. He never compromised, never took bullshit from anyone. And he was successful both artistically and commercially.
Most precious record owned?
My record collection is lame compared to a lot of other DJs and/or producers. But the most precious music is the one that has stayed in your head for years and years.
What can we expect from you for the Midnight Shift label showcase?
My live sets have always been in the hip hop or house domains. I know I'm gonna have to ramp it up for Midnight Shift, so I'm currently writing stuff on the more techy side of things, and I can guarantee you I'm not going to be idling around staring at what knobs to turn. I'll also be doing live versions of our contributions to the future Midnight Shift releases.
Favourite piece of gear?
It still has to be my Maschine. It's the heart of my studio and live performances, and I've been using it for about 3 years now, so I know my way around it pretty well. It's very important to know your gear when you perform because there's a hundred and one things you can do with it, but you need to actually be doing what it is capable of doing, and not fighting with the machine scrolling down menus, looking for that parameter to tweak but not knowing where it's located.
Next gear you've been eyeing?
I've actually acquired that next piece of gear already, which is the Moog Minitaur. I wanted a bass synth to pair with my live rig because my laptop can't handle all those plug ins, and you can't ever argue with a Moog Bass anyway. It's been everywhere from pop to jazz to rock to hip hop to soul to funk to boogie to house to techno and beyond!
Dream stage set up?
I'm really looking for that one other person that gets technology and music the way I do, then I can start doing deeper performances. Until that day comes I'll just have to deal with my own 2 hands and 1 head I guess. That's on the live PA side of things. Of course, if I could integrate that into an actual band that'd be a dream. Except we'll have nowhere to perform in Singapore.
Top 10 charts?
I don't have the habit of charting things, so I'll just say that I'm really digging what Robert Glasper and Casey Benjamin are doing on the Jazz side of things, KiNK and Jeremy Ellis are my gold standard for live performances, the Wolf Music label for that House sound I'm really loving right now, Dam-Funk for that unswerving devotion to the FUNK. There are a lot of others that are good, I just feel these guys need special mention.
What is a day in the life of Kaye like?
Researching for new music, going for rehearsals, trying out new ways for my machines to talk to one another, listening to stuff for sampling, trawling forums for more information, attend the daily classes at the University of YouTube and Google, making beats, maybe squeeze in a movie at the end if I can.
What's next?
There's a new band project in the pipeline which is still in its infancy, but it has to do with Soul, Hip Hop, and myself singing on the vocoder. Fun times!

It seems Brigham Young University and the University of Utah are taking their in-state rivalry to new and uncharted territory with the launching of head-to-head Twitter accounts, UU Boobs and BYUBoobs. Though both accounts are not officially related to the respective schools, the concept is to see which school has more "spirit" by seeing who can get more boob pics of women in Utes or Coug gear.
Photo via Twitter: UUBoobs
Though completely inappropriate and wrong on every level, it's not hard to imagine a couple of University of Utah guys sitting in a dorm room hatching up a boob-themed master plan. As for BYU's account, it was probably spawned in some sort of Large Hadron Collider for keywords that could never co-exist in their natural state. "It'll never work! It's too dangerous!" the professor said as he pounded his fist against the dusty chalkboard. "I'll try it," said a soft but confident voice from the back of the laboratory. "I'll make the Twitter account."
BYU and the UofU aren't the first schools to do this. Apparently, it all started with University of Kansas students asking girls to tweet pics in support of the KU men's basketball team. Buzzfeed explains it nicely with a timeline of KU's boobs-for-sports twitter-plosion.
Both BYU's and the U's accounts are only a few days old: The U account was created Jan. 15 and the BYU account was born Jan. 16. So far, both accounts have only duped a few girls dumb enough to send them photos. We'll see how long this lasts. In the meantime, I think both schools could learn something from Seann William Scott's character in the film Role Models:

Don't be a hater, you know the #boobment is something we can all get behind. You just wish you could get a firm grasp on the situation.
This is actually a great idea. Especially for the LDS females who want to get a little edgy. Whats also funny about this hate blog is that these accounts now will get a lot more followers thanks to this article. Thanks for the heads up hater! Im gonna follow these accounts immediately!!
Finally a reason to get on Twitter

Comment posted Misleading instructions to voters: is Duncan Macintyre trawling for 4th preference votes? by Larry Nugent.
I own up it was a typo. And a very bad one. I apologise to Neil. Correction…. I don't give a "xxxx" for Duncan MacIntyre.
Larry Nugent also commented
- "Dunkin Doughnut MacIntyre", the candidate with a hole in his centre of credibility.You could not make it up.
- Yes that is his/her duty to "represent all constituents". And that means ensuring all sections have equal access to all departments and officers.
The councilors are not qualified or trained to be disability officers. Please read a book on )(he social model on Disability) before you make a fool of yourself again and I thought Duncan MacIntyre was the only one
- The postal vote gives me full access to exercising my democratic franchise.
However, in times of lack of debate on all issues that impact on my disabilities,I cannot feel confident that rural councilors have the same commitment as their colleagues from large conurbations on disability issues.
One of the chief problems is the lack of disability awareness training in A&B rural areas. So it is not just geography and demography. We need a recognised disability awareness officer that will encourage chronically sick and disabled people to participate on matters that will improve employment, education,housing and transport for all sections of our rural communities. I believe that is more important a prize than being envious of city slickers.
Thank God ForArgyll website. At least their service brings rural issues and its problems closer to all the far flung airts and pairts
- Phill and Integrity,
I have a lifetime experience from the womb to the tomb in dealing with authorities of all sorts.
I have found it a long and debilitating experience in seeking natural justice from the likes of Sally Loudon, Douglas Hendry, and adult director Jim Robb.
In legal aid alone, I must have cost the public purse thousands, to no avail. Cases dragged on for years with no satisfactory results other than my increased stress and anxiety levels.
Now I expect more from councilors who I vote to represent my needs for adequate service provision. The case you put of doing it for yourself,does not work,in most cases. It takes up more time than appreciated and you are dealing with an army of council lawyers who are masters of spin and the dark arts.
No, I leave it for my SNP councilors to represent my service provision needs. It cheaper than the public purse and gives councilors a much needed insight into the uncaring executive department and in this case the manipulative Duncan MacIntyre.
I want my franchise expressed by councilors prepared to ask questions and not have their heads ducking and diving below the parapets.
- A new broom sweeps clean but not with this incumbent administration of dead headed chiefs of single digital IQs.
They are attempting to bury their misdeeds with the conniving Independent Alliance.
If I am wrong, then please tell me why "Spygate" was not speedily resolved before the election period. After all we do have an admission of guilt from the culprit.
The public need to know as this is more than a disciplinary matter. It is obvious that the civil rights of the general public has been infringed.
The chief executive department is not a "star chamber" or have proceedings held "in camera". The public have a right to know about this sordid conspiracy and obvious cover up.
Duncan MacIntyre should not be protected and I hope the first thing the new council do is report his leaflet indiscretions to the electoral commission. I will be dismayed if they don't or cannot
Recent comments by Larry Nugent
- Lib Dem performance in Euro elections may spin out into Argyll & Bute
And who in the Oban Yes campaign recommended Sheridan as a speaker? He is a vote loser. I will be tearing up my SNP membership card because they obviously never opposed the choice of Sheridan
- Were Russell's fingerprints also on the SNP group's whipping decision?
Led by the nose and being bullied by a big coward?
If this is true: Who does Russell fear? Is it the outspoken and scorned Robb. It is certainly not the moribund branch members whom historically have not held Councillors and Russell to account or sought transparency or delegated them to properly represent constituents to get value for their council tax.
If they talk and walk like Independents. Then they are Independents
- Cowdenbeath by-election shows parties' ebb and flow
It is transparently clear that the SNP did not even get the Cowdenbeath "grey vote". As a pensioner I am not convinced the SNP will deliver on their promises to my section.
As a resident of Argyll, overall I don't trust them in charge of the Economy, Education,Europe, and control of our natural resources.
The above are bread and butter issues and nothing to do with Independence. The voters on Thursday have registered their disquiet at Walter Mitty paper promises that have no substance and an attack on our living standards.
- Jackie Baillie's 'bedroom tax' protection bill moves forward with cross-party support
"As much as this bill is welcomed"….
I do take on board your justified cynicism of the track record of her party. You must realise her bill has cross party support. And most SNP party members like myself want the Scottish government to act now to prevent further hardship on tenants.
- Jackie Baillie's 'bedroom tax' protection bill moves forward with cross-party support
The money is easy to find. So let there be no backsliding. Act now SNP, as you have the power with the full backing of the many.

I was on my way to Aspen Highlands for the first Saturday of what is to be an extra two weekends of skiing. The Aspen Skiing Company decided to celebrate the great late-season snow by reopening the locals' favorite hill and generate some good will (if not big profits) among skiers who aren't ready quite for the season to end.
Tooling up the Roaring Fork within sight of the lifts, there came Bob Dylan through the speakers singing "Highlands" ("My heart's in The Highlands, gentle and fair…"), the talkin' blues last song on Time Out of Mind.
The timing of this went beyond serendipity. And not just because of the name of the mountain looming there. The whole album, which won three Grammys, including Album of the Year in 1998, is one big, beautiful, incisive, indulgent mid-life crisis. And I'd been feeling kind of rudderless and low.
What was I doing going skiing on April 19 anyway? Driving three hours and 150 miles one way with gas prices the way they are? Just to ride lifts and have fun? Talk about your Canary-Initiative carbon-footprint selfish addiction!
I'd been guilting since the night before. I should have stayed home to help Ellen weed. Or prune the spirea. Perhaps I could have made myself useful up at the kids' house as they struggle to finish the punch list and move in. Or try to figure out a way to generate some income. Or whatever.
Truth be told Ellen's been down a bit, too, of late. We're both of us suffering a sort of ill-defined malaise as we enter our sixties, a temporary – we hope – inability to see the future with the kind of energizing clarity we used to take for granted. Dylan described his own (or his character's) ennui this way: "I'm in Boston town in some restaurant/I have no idea what I want/Or maybe I do but I'm just really not sure/Waitress comes over, nobody in the place but me and her."
This scene always makes me smile. The way Dylan finds humor and pathos in the absolutely mundane: "…She got a pretty face and long white shiny legs/I said 'Tell me what I want'/She say 'You probably want hard boiled eggs'/I said 'That's right, bring me some'/She says 'We ain't got any, you picked the wrong time to come.'"
The song is about more than boredom, it's about essential loneliness: "I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound/Someone's always yellin' 'Turn it down.'" It's about death, too. Nearing the end of things: "My heart's in The Highlands at the break of dawn/By the beautiful lake of the Black Swan/Big white clouds like chariots swing low/Well my heart's in The Highlands, only place left to go."
I'm not feeling near the end. Far from it. Though at times, like Dylan in his sixties, "I've got new eyes, everything looks far away."
Aspen Highlands – as opposed to the mythical Scottish Highlands – was right there in front of me, and it was all about life on this day. It was an "actual spring day" as the ski patroller I rode with put it, noting that last year spring arrived in March in the form of a nuclear meltdown, and this year winter didn't loosen its grip until well after most ski areas had shut down.
Actual corn snow – frozen granular, slush – appeared first on the east-facing slopes, then on the west. The steeps of Temerity and Olympic Bowl didn't feel steep; in the soft, wet, forgiving snow everything was possible and nothing was scary.
A diverse clan appeared to join in the celebration: skiers from Telluride and Vail, the Front Range and Denver. There was a pond-skimming contest out in front of the Merry-Go-Round restaurant. And a local reggae band. And beer and girls baring their shoulders in the sun.
A supremely self-indulgent thing, I said to myself driving back west at the end of the day. No higher purpose, no worthy cause. But there was joy, pure joy in the grace of large forces: gravity, weather, the skill of years. That's something you don't find every day. Motion of one's own choosing, ecstatic motion that has nothing to do, it seems in the moment, with fate.

I have been working at Flowers Foods full-time
Pros – There are no pros working for this company
Cons – In the piedmont NC area. Branch Managent and Assistant Mgmt.are either kin or best buddies. And if they have a friend who wants a job, they will start harassing a worker that they have no liking for in hopes they will quit. Their most used words are, I'm going to fire you., I'm going to write you up, Total verbal harrassment every day and hour you are on the job. Very much a imtimidating and hostile company.
Advice to Senior Management – Need to put their friendship aside that they have with the Branch Management and listen more to the workers.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

More mail (cont.)
Is the fact that the NCAA is now changing how it punishes schools actually a quiet admission that it overstepped its bounds and really punished Penn State without authority to do so?
-- Matt, Manassas, Va.
No, the movement to overhaul the regular enforcement process has been in the works since well before the Penn State situation. If anything, it was a response to the year of scandal that began roughly with the USC sanctions in the summer of 2010 and encompassed North Carolina, Cam Newton, Ohio State, Oregon and others. NCAA President Mark Emmert and VP of Enforcement Julie Roe Lach both took office in the fall of 2010, at which point they undertook a review of the process. The coinciding outbreak of scandal presumably motivated the presidents to take action, beginning about a year ago. But it's certainly amusing that the board of directors' endorsement of the new enforcement model came just a week after we learned the whole thing can be circumvented if warranted.
I'm on board with most of the proposals. Certainly we can all agree that not all major violations (in the current parlance) are created equal, hence, it makes sense to create new classifications. Stiffer penalties for egregious violations -- in particular those that hold coaches more accountable (like suspensions for misdeeds of their staff) -- are welcome. And I've long felt the area most in need of an overhaul is the Committee on Infractions. The NCAA is planning to expand and diversify its roster, thus allowing it to process cases more quickly. I only wish it had gone one step farther and made the committee a full-time vocation rather than the voluntary side job that it is.
Having said all that, Bylaw Blog publisher John Infante, who knows more about this stuff than any of us, says the new model (which would go into effect Aug. 1, 2013) isn't actually all that big of a change.
With Auburn having a change at both OC and DC, what impact do you think the new hires will have this season in the formidable SEC West? Can Scot Loeffler have the same results he had at Temple in his first year with the team's young talent on offense? Brian VanGorder needs to be able improve passing over Ted Roof's tenure, but do you see the ability for him to bring back the success the defense had under Will Muschamp or Gene Chizik as defensive coordinators?
-- Fred, Orlando
I've got a lot more confidence in VanGorder than I do in Loeffler. The former engineered some terrific defenses during the first part of Mark Richt's tenure at Georgia, finishing in the top 10 nationally from 2002-04. Since then he's racked up five years' experience as an NFL coordinator. Auburn basically upgraded from a run-of-the-mill journeyman in Roof (now at Penn State) to potentially one of the premier coordinators in the country, provided he can readjust to the college game. And Chizik has recruited particularly well on defense since he got there. With nine returning starters, including some very talented defensive linemen (Nosa Eguae, Corey Lemonier), I'd expect the Tigers to improve significantly from last year's 81st-ranked unit.
Loeffler, on the other hand, has his work cut out on offense. Much will depend on the development of sophomore quarterback Kiehl Frazier. By all accounts Frazier has improved over the offseason, but Loeffler seems an odd choice to oversee his development. Loeffler, you may recall, was the quarterbacks coach Urban Meyer brought in his last year to help develop John Brantley. That didn't take. Prior to that, most of his experience came at Michigan, working with pure drop-back guys like John Navarre and Chad Henne. In his first year as a coordinator last year at Temple, Loeffler basically rode the Owls' running backs. Frazier was a true dual-threat quarterback in high school who came to play in Gus Malzahn's system. Either Loeffler has immersed himself in the ways of the running quarterback after working with Meyer and Steve Addazio, or this will be an awkward marriage much like his two-year stay in Gainesville was.
Still trying to figure out why the Heisman goes to a player who has the best talent around him. Maybe that's why a lot of Heisman winners are not successful in the NFL. Another joke is schools that actually spend a lot of money on a promo campaign for their player. Where did amateur athletics go?
-- Terry Moores, Mancos, Colo.
Indeed, where would Robert Griffin III be without all those Baylor five-star recruits around him? And apparently the decay of amateur athletics can be traced to those Byron Leftwich bobblehead dolls.
Has Chick-fil-A just "campaigned" its way right out of contention for one of the two remaining premium bowl spots for 2014? If you are the BCS commissioners, why would you even consider such a toxic partner that would bring such bad press?
-- Ryan Taylor, Atlanta
[Note: The following is an intentionally apolitical answer. If you feel compelled to respond by espousing why Chick-fil-A is either a bastion of bigotry or upholder of morality, I'm sure CNN, MSNBC or Fox News would be happy to hear from you.]
It's an interesting question, and one I've found myself thinking about during the recent controversy. Seemingly overnight Chick-fil-A became the most polarizing brand in the country -- the subject of protests and boycotts but also the beneficiary of so many supporters it set a sales record last Wednesday -- and it just so happens to be one of the most visible brands in college football. You've probably heard by now about the mayors of Chicago and Philadelphia vowing not to allow the company to open franchises in their cities, but you may have missed this headline: the University of Louisville's president and provost announced they "will not be eating at Chick-fil-A anytime soon." I can only assume this means they would not allow the school to participate in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game if invited.
We'll find out soon enough whether the Chick-fil-A controversy was a momentary blip in the news cycle or a long-term issue for the company. Will the season-opening NC State-Tennessee and Clemson-Auburn games be subject to protests outside the Georgia Dome, or will this be out of mind by then? I can't imagine the BCS commissioners would be thrilled at the idea of marriage equality advocates protesting outside one of their new Final Four games. But keep in mind, Chick-fil-A does not run the game. It's a sponsor, and its contract with the Atlanta bowl expires after next season. Also, keep in mind that with the BCS package, ESPN, not the bowls, sells the title sponsorships (Tostitos, Allstate, etc.). Assuming that arrangement continues going forward, the Atlanta bowl could theoretically land one of the Big Six games, and then it would be up to the network that lands the rights to decide the sponsorship question.
It's something to keep an eye on in the coming months, as the bidding for spots in the new rotation is expected to commence shortly after the season.
Which former Notre Dame coach will win more games this fall -- Charlie Weis at Kansas or Bob Davie at New Mexico?
-- Bruce Elgersma, Lakeville, Minn.
It's going to be pretty rough for Davie, taking over a New Mexico program that's gone 1-11 each of the past three seasons. Two wins this year would be a huge accomplishment. Weis, meanwhile, recently declared that the Notre Dame and Kansas jobs are "the same," which I take to mean: He can produce the same 3-9 record at both places. So, for this year at least, advantage Charlie.

Drug information provided by: Micromedex
Papaverine belongs to the group of medicines called vasodilators. Vasodilators cause blood vessels to expand, thereby increasing blood flow. Papaverine is used to produce erections in some men with erectile dysfunction. When papaverine is injected into the penis (intracavernosal), it increases blood flow to the penis, which results in an erection.
Papaverine injection should not be used as a sexual aid by men who do not have erectile dysfunction. If the medicine is not used properly, permanent damage to the penis and loss of the ability to have erections could result.
Papaverine is available only with your doctor's prescription.
Once a medicine has been approved for marketing for a certain use, experience may show that it is also useful for other medical problems. Although this use is not included in product labeling, papaverine is used in certain patients with the following medical conditions:
