The code that seems to have the issue, is the function applyTitle() that is located into the file Observer.php, and it looks like this:

public function applyTitle($observer){
    $head = $observer->getLayout()->getBlock('head');
    if($head){
        $this->setData('title',Mage::getSingleton('title/title'));

    Mage::Register('current_title',Mage::getSingleton('title/title'));

    $title = $this->getData('title');
    if($title){
        $head->setTitle($title->getTitle());
    }

    return $this;
}
[...]

Could you help me to understand what is wrong with this code?

CHICAGO extends the booking
Due to overwhelming demand
Even before previews have begun, the producers of the Kander & Ebb musical CHICAGO, winner of six Tony Awards, two Olivier Awards and a Grammy, have extended the booking period at the Phoenix Theatre in London until 6 October 2018. Following a successful UK and international tour, and after a 5½-year absence from London, the musical will open on Wednesday 11 April 2018, following previews from 26 March.
Casting for the new booking period will be announced nearer the time.
The cast for the first booking period, from 26 March to 30 June 2018, is led by Cuba Gooding Jr, Sarah Soetaert, Josefina Gabriell, Ruthie Henshall and Paul Rider. This cast will also feature Alan Richardson, Michelle Antrobus, Natalie Bennyworth, Nicola Coates, Frances Dee, Zoe Gappy, Emma Harris, Chelsea Labadini, Joanna Rennie, Abramo Ciullo, Francis Foreman, Luke Jarvis, Matt Krzan, Charles Ruhrmund, Todd Talbot, Callum Macdonald, Chris Warner Drake and Matthew Wesley.
CHICAGO originally ran in London for 15 years, making it the West End's longest running revival. It first opened at the Adelphi Theatre on 18 November 1997 to rave reviews and immediately became a sell-out hit. CHICAGO won the 1998 Laurence Olivier Award for 'Outstanding Musical Production' as well as the 1998 Critics Circle Drama Award for 'Best Musical'. CHICAGO transferred from the Adelphi Theatre to the Cambridge Theatre in April 2006, where it ran for five years until 27 August 2011. The show then opened at the Garrick Theatre on 7 November 2011, where it ran until 1 September 2012.
Since it opened in New York in 1996, CHICAGO has played in 36 countries worldwide, and been performed in English, Dutch, German, Swedish, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Italian, French, Danish, Japanese and Korean. It has grossed over $1.5 billion worldwide and has played over 32,500 performances worldwide, with an estimated 31 million people around the world having seen CHICAGO

📢🇹🇷 Will Kerem Bürsin make a movie about Muhammad Ali? (DETAIL IN THE NOTE)
By roxana on Feb 13, 2020
It seems that Kerem Bürsin's fault line is over. The actor starred in the new program, works on the film and can go to the United States to film the film, where he will act not only as an actor, but also as a producer.
Some time ago, Kerem Bürsin fans were quite surprised by their unexpected refusal to star in the television series Dam / Baraj, which is being prepared by the television company Medyapym. At the same time, the actor admitted that he liked the script, but that he had other plans. And now, it seems, the reason for his refusal became evident.
According to Hurriyet's post, Kerem travels to the United States to shoot a movie about the famous boxer Muhammad Ali. The film will be filmed by the Bürsin producer, which he founded with his American friends. Kerem himself will also appear in the film, playing the role of an American boxer. An American actor of Nigerian descent, Chike Okonkwo, is considered the protagonist of the project. Dawn-Lyen Gardner can play the wife of the famous boxer.
Keep in mind that Kerem Bürsin grew up in the United States and has friends in Hollywood, so his desire to make a movie in the United States does not seem fantastic, but he must be careful with the information from the Turkish press, as he often reports fake news.
Meanwhile, Kerem is busy filming a miniseries for the Blu TV Precisely / Aynen Aynen Internet platform, and this week he will also start shooting the movie Eflatun, where İrem Helvacıoğlu became his co-star. In addition, according to the Turkish press, the actor signed a contract with a sportswear brand.
Perhaps, after the filming of the current projects is completed, Kerem Bürsin will go abroad, where he will have to work on his own film. We wish you good luck and follow the development of events.

Not exactly, though you can look back to Chone Figgins with the Angels -- remember when there was the chat that wanted him or Bay over Holliday, ah, good times -- and how Ben Zobrist was used with the Rays and see examples of that. Each team sort of has a player that they move around like that now, whether it's a corner position player or a middle-infielder who can also appear in the outfield sometimes and third base sometimes. If I get your example right, it sure seems like the Cubs come the closest to what you're talking about with Bryant, Zobrist, and even Baez moving around at times depending on the matchup.
Shildt said that the Mets got a steal in Wacha. If we respect Shildt's baseball acumen (and I do), shouldn't the Cardinals have gotten that steal? At least tried to?
Shildt also said that the "math" doesn't work for Wacha's return. The opening the Cardinals had was not the opening for Wacha to fill. So there's that aspect. If you're that dead set on criticizing the front office, it seems like there's low-hanging fruit that you could reach without having to twist yourself into knots over this one.
Who do you see in the starting staff in 2 years? How about the outfield? I think there's a lot of talent in both.
by guebs007 12/23/2019 7:47:59 PM
Flaherty, Mikolas, Hudson, Thompson -- that could be the foursome with an addition from outside, or Kim's return if he does well, or Gomber or Woodford if either of them get a chance and run with it. That seems likely. No clue on the outfield, except that Dylan Carlson will be a part of it. It could be two new players beside him, or Bader and Thomas. So many options, and there's just not one that obviously sings out.
Will Carlson be given a legitimate shot to start the season in St. Louis?
by ICCFIM 12/23/2019 7:50:01 PM
Yep. He's going to have to outplay others in spring, but the chance is there for him.
Sure seems like flaherty is more likely to test FA than take a team friendly deal. Willthe FO be prepared to offer him a strasburg or Cole type deal when the time comes?
by USMC 12/23/2019 7:50:36 PM
Great question. We're going to find out. They would prefer to get him under contract Strasburg-style before it ever gets to that point. But they have two conflicting things happening once he gets into those dollars. First, they don't like splashing that kind of cash on righthanded pitchers and the volatility of the role. Second, they do like spending that money on in-house players who they developed and who they want to keep and who they feel they know well.
Do you ever see a window or time they would go in on an elite FA and not keep getting the mid tier guys? It seems like all they do for the last almost decade is resign their own guys/sign mid tier FAs and obviously that has downsides and hasn't panned out the best. Even with Fowler and Carpenter coming off in a couple years, I'm sure they extend Wong, Yadi And maybe Hudson and who knows who else. Any time I look at payroll by years in the future I would get excited when a lot of money is coming off the books, but we still haven't gone and signed an elite guy. They did trade for Goldy I guess but that doesn't feel the same.
I just wish they would go after 1-2 top tier guys because elite production is worth paying for, and you can fill the rest of your lineup with younger guys for what is probably a similar range of outcomes as the non elite FA. You only get so many lineup spots to fill. 1-2 elite players is more important than a handful of good players I think because I feel elite guys are difference makers where there may not be as much of a difference between your cheap system guys or a low-mid tier FA
by Jeff 12/23/2019 7:52:23 PM
I'm not sure what to do with these questions, and this one puts it well. Even the question guesses that the Cardinals did spend a lot of money on Goldschmidt, almost as if he was a free agent -- but it doesn't "feel" the same. The Cardinals guaranteed $237 million to players in March. If they had done the same thing in December, they would have been celebrated as finally opening up the purse and paying players. But it happened in March. So it doesn't "feel" the same. But it's the same dollars. It's the same spending. (And we can question or be critical of that spending, but not that March dollars are somehow worth less than December dollars ...)
If you need the Cardinals to be caught up in rumors and speculation with the big free agents to "feel" like they're doing more, then it's probably never going to be that way. The Cardinals don't really traffic in whispering their interest in players they will or won't sign. They don't leak things to hype up their bidding. I can't recall them every commenting on the record about bidding for Jason Heyward, and the bulk of my reporting on that offer came from Heyward, Heyward's side, or other teams involved in the bidding. None for the Cardinals. So that really limits what "feel" they can give their fans. And also, they're just really conservative. They are. They don't like bidding wars. DeWitt has said that specifically. He doesn't think they "win auctions." Period. They prefer to trade. They prefer to re-sign. They prefer to target mid-tier players and then spend aggressively to get the one they want. That's the model that they've had. They're not going into the waters for Cole or Rendon at those prices, and probably won't as long as this ownership is in place or they're in the running for a division title. But they do spend money. Whether it "feels" that way or not ...
There are, believe it or not, rivals who think the Cardinals got the best player available in the 2018-19 offseason.
Were you live on "High Heat" today?
Yes. Only my answers sounded lifeless.
Would Cards entertain this trade?
Cards get Arenado and part of his salary paid down a little.
Rockies get Gorman, O'Neill/Bader, and Fowler (I know he has a NTC. Just assuming he can be convinced to accept a trade.)
Potential Lineup:
Edman - RF
Wong - 2B
Arenado -3B
Goldy -1B
Carp - LF
DeJong - SS
Molina - C
Arozarena/Bader (if not traded) - CF
by Baseball Fan35 12/23/2019 8:00:06 PM
If the Rockies are going to trade Arenado, they're going to want a return that starts with just about what the Cardinals sent to Arizona for Goldschmidt plus some to adjust for the years of control or what the Red Sox gave up to get Sale. Certainly at least what the White Sox got from Washington for Eaton, eh? So you're talking about that level of talent changing hands. In your example, the Rockies get ONE major-league player with five or so years of control. One. Arizona got two major-league players with twice that many years of control. Heck, for two years of Ozuna -- and that's sort of what you count on from Arenado -- the Marlins got two starting pitchers that in the majors right now and had a combined 12 years of control. This kind of offer does not give the Rockies the salary relief they need or the young, in the majors talent they can command. Yes, the dollar figure is going to play a role in shaping the deal. But you're talking about trading for the best all-around player in the National League, a surefire middle-order hitter, so keep in mind what other deals are similar and start there.
Are you a Rockies fan? Cardinals Fan? or now that you write professional do you go where the wind takes you and try to stay neutral? What brought you to St. Louis from Denver other than Paycheck if that was bigger?
by JtotheEremy 12/23/2019 8:03:37 PM
I am not a fan of any team, just of the game. The Rockies came to Colorado in 1993, the same spring I graduated from high school. So the Bears/Zephyrs were the team I grew up with, and the major-league team that I followed was the Yankees. Ask my friends and they may have photos of me wearing a Yankees hat around. Won't be hard to find. But my real fondness, what I really cheered for was a chance to be around the game -- to write about the game. And to do that, you stay neutral. You become neutral. You cheer for the game, cheer for the stories, strive to tell the best ones, but the success of players or success of a team is not something you cheer for. That's the gig. I would think as readers you would want that. But if you don't, then wait a few months or a week or so, and in the changing media landscape there may be fans covering your favorite team, and maybe that's what you want. I don't have that in me.
I came to St. Louis from Denver because the Post-Dispatch invited me back to work for the newspaper, because they offered me the chance the possibility -- not a promise -- that I would cover baseball -- and my wife is from the St. Louis area and she wanted a chance to come home. It was not the paycheck, candidly. It was the hope I could earn a chance to cover baseball because I know what it means here and that would give me the chance to stay where my wife wanted to be.
How often do you think Mo regrets using the term "low hanging fruit"?
by Joe Bagodonuts 12/23/2019 8:08:17 PM
Not as often as you think. He has a wry sense of humor.
Merry Christmas Derrick and thanks for the Chats
by Chuck 12/23/2019 8:08:28 PM
Same to you. Happy holidays to all the chatters.
Not sure why you keep saying Arenado is the best player in the NL. Pretty sure he didn't win the MVP and last time I checked Christian Yelich and Cody Bellinger both still play in the NL. You're not wrong about him being good and worth everything Colorado is asking for, but he is not the best player in the NL.
I didn't say he was the "best player in the NL." I have been very clear in my writing: He is, in my opinion, the best all-around player in the National League. Christian Yelich and Cody Bellinger hit better, but they don't play defense like Arenado, and they don't play a defensive position as demanding as Arenado's. So, there's that ...
Why did the Cardinals modify the STL logo on the caps? Maybe it's just me but I can't really tell any difference.
Continuity. To stop erosion of the logo over time. To sell new hats.
Would you agree with the sentiment that since no other team in the NL Central is aggressively improving their roster that now gives Mo a pass to not make any major improvements as well? For example passing up on Dallas Kuechel for 3/55 and instead going out and getting a cheap (salary wise) wildcard from Korea
by Darealrobertmcd 12/23/2019 8:10:05 PM
I think the Cincinnati Reds are trying to improve and you don't have to squint to see how they could be the best team in the division now, and certainly could be a serious contender with one more move. Maybe the division is cover for the Cardinals. I think it cannot be ignored that the Cardinals spent on Cecil, spent on Fowler, traded for Ozuna, trade for Goldschmidt and did so all in the window of time that they weren't in October, and now here they are the defending division champs and they're going internally with most of their moves. That cannot just be coincidence.
Thoughts on the new Nike logo on the FRONT of uniforms?
by Ben 12/23/2019 8:11:29 PM
Not ideal. It looks awful on pinstripes.
What is the Cardinals' "real sentiment" towards the Carpenter extension? I'm familiar with the public pronouncements of being fully committed to him and hoping he has a bounce-back year. But what's the real feeling?
That they took advantage of an opportunity at the time and made a decision that made sense to them in the moment, and that they acted six months before they had to. That's the real sentiment. I've found that baseball executives don't mourn the eggs that made their omelet too often.
Latest on where Ozuna may play this upcoming season? Thanks
Reds, Rangers, Braves -- there's a handful of teams still interested. You've got some overlap with the teams interested in Castellanos. There's still an undercurrent that he's going to be in Cincy, or that the Reds may make a compelling offer and it will be up to him to choose to go elsewhere.
If the Reds somehow landed Lindor, would the Cardinals make a reactionary move?
by Drew 12/23/2019 8:13:45 PM
We've seen this movie. No.
I've made this comment before, but I believe it's time to make it once again.
Based on what little the organization has done so far this offseason (other than letting Marcell Ozuna leave, and leave for good, I hope), I am of the opinion that Bill DeWitt Jr. and the Cardinals are going to ride the fact that the team made it all the way to the NLCS until either the horse dies, or the fans show their displeasure and stay away from Busch.
by Bruce 12/23/2019 8:14:18 PM
Sure. Your opinion has been presented here for posterity.
Can you look into your crystal ball... Will the Cardinals ever entertain the idea of Jordan Hicks as a starting pitcher?
I don't see that happening, no. He's going to be an elite closer for a long time.
Hey, DG. Thanks for your hard work, articles, chats, tweets (even if the crazies come out). It is appreciated. You're the best.
Question. I read your article about outfielders and potential moves. In it, you mention that the Cardinals have maintained their commitment to Carp at 3rd, publicly. Am I crazy for reading that as behind the scenes they still are open to acquiring a 3rd baseman (the obvious one that everyone is thinking about). Or, should I not read between the lines?
by Brandon 12/23/2019 8:15:17 PM
You are not crazy. I did not pull the thought of Carpenter playing LF out of the air a few months back. It had to be a scenario the Cardinals entertained given their need for offense and where the offense is in this market. It's at third base.

Superkids is an amazing place!! As an employee, I love that all of the teachers genuinely care about the children in their class. The teachers are very good about wanting to have a connection with the parents which I think is a great thing! The management at Superkids works very hard to make sure everyone (parents, children, employees, etc) is informed and get what they need! I have always loved working with children! Superkids gives me the chance to make an impact on a child's life even if it is the smallest impact. Not only do I get to work with children but I also get to work for amazing people that care about me! Superkids is a great place to take your children!
I have worked at Super Kids for almost two years now, the other staff members and the management are both absolutely amazing. Going to work everyday is a joy, I get up every morning excited to see the children, and excited for the new stories they have, and watching them grow daily! I have had an amazing opportunity to get to know families inside & outside of the daycare, and have grown close to so many. Super Kids has an high expectations for all the employees and the things we teach the children. By far the best work environment I have ever worked in! Super Kids is like my second family!
I actively sought out employment at Super Kids. With over 20 years experience in childcare, I could not be more happy with my decision. From a personal aspect, I work very hard to ensure that my class receives the best possible care and preschool education. I run a full preschool curriculum and actively challenge my children, giving them the chance to thrive, while still finding time to be a child. Communication with the parents and families is key. They are a child's first teacher, education and success is a team effort. Management take the time to ensure that we have what we need in order to provide and care for our kids. If I have an issue that needs to be addressed, it is not ignored.
It's too bad I couldn't review on less than one star. I've really debated with myself if I should review or not. But my child's last day was today so I feel like he's safe and it's ok to be honest. First of all my son has a sensory disorder that is considered to be in the autism family. He can't process loud sounds or touch. So when the noise is overwhelming he wears ear protection. When he gets overwhelmed he needs tight firm hugs. Now Super Kids knew all of this when he started. They also knew that he had therapy once a week and that a therapist was at their disposal whenever needed. But never once did they ask for assistance or help. I feel like everything changed after his teacher changed. Once Miss Julie took over his room his behavior changed. She seemed overwhelmed all the time. As a matter of fact I went in one morning and she proceeded to tell me that they wouldn't have water play anymore it was just to overwhelming for her. Now this came from a teacher who has been a preschool teacher before, not someone just thrown into daycare life. I feel like once something gets overwhelming for you then you have lost control of the class and situation. So basically Miss Julie should find another career. To pretend that you ever cared for my son is a huge disappointment to me and him. He is a child with special needs that requires attention. Attention, help, assistance that they had at their disposal, but failed to ask for. Then I come in one morning to drop him off and I'm told that he can't come there any longer after Friday. My boss said to tell you that you have until Friday to find other care. That's what the lady up at the front desk says to me. First of all what kind of boss puts the dirty work off on someone else? Secondly was it because Miss Julie and the lady up front lied and didn't disclose that they have access to a therapist to assist? Or was it that the owner and director just wanted to be discriminating against a special needs child? Who knows. My son also had a picture in his cubby of myself, his mother, and him for soothing purposes. But guess what the picture is gone. And conveniently nobody knows what happened to it. Did it disappear because we are two lesbians raising a son or was it just an accident? Basically what it boils down too is be careful if your child attends Super Kids. And I wouldn't recommend this daycare to watch my dog let alone my child.
Super Kids is the absolute worst daycare I have ever seen in my life. They have rusted pipes and more. The administration is more focused on bad mouthing each other than the children. Activities are decided on a whim when the children arrive. Nothing is ever planned and the children's teachers change at the drop of a hat. Melissa is condensing and more worried about money than anything. So many people quit everyday behind Melissa, and they will quickly tell you its an expected turnover when its really Melissa's bad attitude and unprofessionalism.

In children with advanced-stage ALCL, CD30 positivity is associated with a better survival than CD30 negativity.7 Overall survival rates for children with Ki-1+ ALCL treated with chemotherapy are approximately 70% to 80%, regardless of whether a B-cell or T-cell protocol is used.8 Our patient responded well to a protocol for B-cell lymphomas.

Hard to come up with something. Maybe the noise from the street although it wasn't to bad. Ah and also perhaps it would be good to offer a map or a paper with some key places/spots to visit or activities to-do.
Just outside the streets are covered in dog mess everywhere you go. I can't understand this mentality and lack of pride which spoils a beautiful town,it's a real health risk and a problem throughout.
Nice and clean place to stay ! The stuff were super friendly. I really enjoyed my stay there.
The walls of the room are paper thin and you can hear your neighbours every move. Our room was at the very back of the hotel with a window out over the courtyard and into neighbours garden.
Our room was smaller and less well furnished than some of pictures on website. It would have been improved by some small touches, like a mirror and hooks.
The price was a bit high, though.
The hostel is nice and modern, in what seems quite a new building. The staff is incredibly kind and helpful and there's a quaint café space to have a coffee, juice or glass of wine. Our room was cozy and bright. It is close to the train station (5 minutes by foot) and there's a bus stop just across the road. Many typical restaurants and boulangeries nearby, quite a safe street.


NEW VOICES! Singer Shaun Millz Releases New Single "Well Done" | WATCH NEW VIDEO!
Shaun Millz releases his new single "Well Done" – WATCH the official music video below!
Shaun Millz debuts his NEW single "Well Done", this song was inspired by an inevitable tragedy that all souls must face in this wondrous life.


There are times in life that we experience it deeply. You may know it. It is that place you find yourself asking… Why? Why God? It hurts so bad that the tears don't even matter. In fact at times it hurts so bad you can't even cry. Maybe you've wondered like I have. "Is something wrong with me?' It runs so deep that it wears you out and you just want to sleep so you don't have to think about it. But even in your dreams you are reminded of the pain. You may be tempted to self medicate with that vice that is your nemesis.
Chapter 38 of Isaiah has some of the most profound words in regards to this topic. Hezekiah was told by the prophet Isaiah to get his house in order because he was going to die. "Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord, 'Remember, Lord, how I have walked before you faithfully and with wholehearted devotion and have done was is good in your eyes.' And Hezekiah wept bitterly." (Isaiah 38:2-3 NIV) Hmmm… A fairly simple yet profound prayer. Remember me God. That is really all he asked for. Is that what I would ask for? Is that what you would ask for? God, remember me… uh, except for… No, Hezekiah left it all in God's hands. Somehow that prayer hit the ears and heart of God in such a way that He decided to add 15 years to Hezekiah's life. God didn't stop there. He also promised to deliver him and the city from Assyria.
All that stuff is pretty awesome, but here is what pierces my heart to the core. It is found in verse 17. You could easily miss it as I almost did. "Surely it was for my benefit that I suffered such anguish. In your love you kept me from the pit of destruction; you have put all my sins behind your back." Wait? Did he just say it was for my benefit? Yes he did. I had to read it again. I just stopped right there. WOW. Ok, I understand the idea that "sufferings produce perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope." (Romans 5:3-4 NIV) But this… this says it completely different. That somehow it is to my benefit that I suffer anguish? As I put those two together it makes sense in my head. Sure the benefit is perseverance, character and hope. But how do I reconcile that in my heart when the pain is so bad? Even Hezekiah refers to it as an anguish of his soul.
To be honest I am still trying to wrap my heart and mind around the idea of the benefit of anguish. I go back to my previous post when I talk about letting God hold my heart. I have a couple of choices in the deep pain. I could run. Run from everything and everyone. Self medicate myself. Sleep it away. But when I wake or come back from the slumber it is all still there. I could just get angry and bitter. I've seen that before. I don't want that. There are probably a number of other options too. OR… I could hand over my heart. I could be completely and brutally honest with God. Wrestle through it with him. Lean into him and lean on him. Surrender. Trust. Allow God to turn those hard parts in my heart to soft fertile soil. Because they are there. When we are truly honest with ourselves we all know they are.
Of course, that begs the question,"Does God make these things happen then?" No, I don't think so, but I'm also not God. What I do know is we live in a fallen world. It all started with the first sin. We live in a broken world as a result of that.
So, maybe there is a benefit of anguish. Is it an opportunity to hand things over, relinquish control, and trust that he will be all that I will ever need? To let go of the fear of the unknown? In the pain could he do something in me that I wouldn't allow otherwise? That I am at the point where I say, "Ok God, my life, it is yours. Do with it what you will. Your will, not mine." Was that not the prayer Jesus said at his time of anguish in the Garden?
Deep, beyond the pain therein the gift is to be discovered. It will look different for you than it does for me. Maybe the gift is not for you but for someone else. My wife and mother-in-law discovered a deep sense of loneliness in their loss. Yet they vowed they would never let one of their friends feel as alone as they have in their anguish. Their's is a gift for someone else. In return it is a gift for them as well. They are now a comfort to those who mourn and it brings them joy. The gift we find beyond the pain is an odd but powerful thing.
We live in a deeply broken world that needs people of God who know the benefit of anguish. God knew it, so he sent His only son to experience it. Jesus knew it so he walked into to it. He in fact took upon him the greatest anguish of all. The full cup of God's wrath for you and me.
As you celebrate our risen Lord this weekend do not forgot he experienced the greatest anguish of all so that we might experience and know his love that restores all things. And remember… In that great anguish He conquered sin and death!
Well written – as Yancy entitled on of book "PAIN: the gift nobody wants", he says those who don't have pain essentially have spiritual leprosy: unable to feel pain they plunge into all kinds of limb and life threatening actions. They don't feel the pain, but the results are quite destructive.
Glad you are feeling…. not glad that it's pain right now.

Superchic[k]'s "Beauty from Pain" Continues Positivity Theme
2005 25 May
Artist: Superchic[k]
Title: "Beauty from Pain"
Label: Inpop
After following up its first two smash releases with the remix project "Regeneration," the band with the bracketed "k" is back with 10 new songs to empower Christian youth. It's a good thing, too, since Superchic[k] seems to fill the pop/punk/rock/ female singer niche that no one else has yet to touch.
Not only does the opening tune "Anthem" kick off the album with a bang, but it also sets the recurring theme of confidence and positivity. Loud and fast, the song is dedicated to "girls on the boards with bruises and scars" among others and reminds kids to not give up.
"Bowling Ball," "Wishes," and "It's On" continue the trend, radiating self-esteem builders as their short-yet-memorable choruses loop over rebellious guitars. With lyrics like "You need that boy like a bowling ball dropped on your head which means not at all" and "No matter how you feel it's what you do that matters," songwriter Max Hsu maintains a balance between lighthearted rhymes and poetic depth. Also an accomplished producer (tobyMac, Jump5), he blends affected vocals with synthesized notes and clean beats for a blended, atmospheric effect in "Suddenly." A similar technique sets the mood in "Courage," betraying the heavy subject matter of struggling with an eating disorder.
Ironically, the title track and most impressive composition, "Beauty from Pain," is about as far from the signature Superchic[k] sound as it gets, although pinpointing the group's sound is not a simple task. While Superchic[k] comes across live as rockers with punk-tinged guitar chords, its radio singles portray more melodic traits like acoustic guitar mixed with delicate orchestration. "Beauty from Pain" could have been lifted from a Sarah McLachlan album, with its gorgeous vocals and a piano foundation. The emotion of the song is almost overwhelming with a promising message of hope: "After all this has passed, I still will remain. After I've cried my last, there will be beauty from pain."
The band truly hits its stride with tracks "Pure" (the record's first single), "Stories (Down to the Bottom)" (a slightly different mix of the song it originally recorded for tobyMac) and "We Live." Mixing its pop/punk guitars with hints of reggae and rap, this is a style that makes the most of the band's eclectic talents.

Maha: 91 farmers from Buldhana write to governor seeking euthanasia
91 farmers from Buldhana submitted a letter to the Governor C. Vidyasagar Rao seeking permission for Euthanasia as they are been adequately compensated for their land which had been acquired by the state government for construction of a highway
91 farmers from Buldhana district in Vidharbha, Maharashtra, have written a letter to Governor C. Vidyasagar Rao demanded permission for euthanasia, as they claim they don't have money to fend for themselves and their families.
The farmers have been on hunger strike since the past one-and-half months.
Farmers in Maharashtra are reeling under severe crises. Crop loss due to natural calamity, debt and government's apathy are the main reasons which are forcing them to take a step towards suicide.
But taking a different approach, 91 farmers from Khamgaon tehsil, Buldhana, Maharashtra have written a letter to Governor C Vidyasagar Rao, demanding euthanasia or mercy killing.
The farmers allege that the state took away their land for the construction of a highway project. But, didn't pay them as per the market price. Owing to which, they have suffered agony and can't fend for their families anymore.
While speaking to My Medical Mantra, Vinayak Deshmukh, a local farmer said, "It's been past one-and-half months, that we have been sitting for this hunger strike. But, no one from the state machinery has bothered to take notice. We have given our land, our only source of income to the government for the project. But, government hasn't paid us the required compensation. That is why; we have written a letter to the governor demanding euthanasia."
What is euthanasia?
Euthanasia is the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma.
Patients who have reached such a state, where even today's modern medicine cannot bring him/her back to life. Nor improve their condition and are on support system, can seek euthanasia.
Euthanasia is of 2 types – active and passive.
Active Euthanasia: Drugs are given to patients to end their life.
Passive Euthanasia: Stop giving drugs which are required by the patients to sustain life or instrumentation.

Every CMA Awards Album of the Year Winner Ever
Carrie Horton
Michael Loccisano, Getty Images
Ever since the very first CMA Awards in 1967, Album of the Year has been a coveted award, won by big names, soon-to-be-big names and even a few never-heard-from-again names.
Throughout its 50-plus-year history, the Album of the Year honor has stood as a testament to an artist's body of work and the people who helped make it. From the songwriting to the instrumentation to the overall production, Album of the Year is just as much about the team of people who make a record as it is about the artist who releases it.
Over the years, the CMA for Album of the Year has gone to a diverse and prolific set of artists, with George Strait currently holding the record: five wins over an impressive span of 23 years. Ronnie Milsap has taken home four Album of the Year awards, while Johnny Cash won three, two of which were for his live recordings from American prisons. In more recent years, fan favorites such as Tim McGraw, Garth Brooks, Chris Stapleton and Eric Church have each taken home two trophies for their work.
Click through the photo gallery below to learn more about every record that has ever been crowned Album of the Year at the CMA Awards.
The 2020 CMA Awards are scheduled to take place on Nov. 11 and will air live from Nashville on ABC beginning at 8PM ET. Due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, however, the event will look a bit different than usual: It's being hosted at Nashville's Music City Center, not Bridgestone Arena as is customary, and there will be no live audience.
The Boot will be staying up late covering the most buzzed-about winners, fashion and moments at the 2020 CMA Awards. Readers can watch along with us by checking back to TheBoot.com for the latest CMAs headlines, liking The Boot on Facebook and following The Boot on Twitter.

Home News Mark Stewart announces UK tour dates
Mark Stewart announces UK tour dates
Phil Newall
Following hot on the heels of his recent live shows and the acclaimed release of his new album 'The Politics of Envy' Mark Stewart is announcing further dates taking the urgency of his wall-of-sound show to Edinburgh, Liverpool, Leeds and Birmingham.
"He retains the vigilance, the eyes-on-stalks awareness, that characterises the great post-punk movers" Sunday Times Culture
"Such is Stewart's artistic currency that these brand new songs held their own next to the tightly coiled controlled explosion of old favourite Hysteria" The Scotsman
"A triumphant night and a lesson in the art of protest music" Louder Than War
"Mark Stewart still has a voice to be heard, and he still knows how to give a great live performance." Buzzin Live Media
We interviewed Mark immediately prior to the release of the new album, he has now confirmed that 'Stereotype' ft. Keith Levene will be released as a single on the 4th June 2012 via Future Noise
"We're out to wreck havoc, mash-up the bass bins and throttle the guitars, this time it's war" says Mark.
And that's exactly what was delivered. At the Scala show in London and in true punk spirit style, Mark jumped into the audience to break up a fight that kicked off during his encore of 'Autonomia' with Bobby Gillespie and Andrew Innes from Primal Scream.
Described by the Wire as "always in search of forbidden marriages between alien forms", for these shows, Mark has personally plucked from the underground Arkell & Hargreaves (True Tiger), the tightest splatter punk psyche-funk rhythm section. The band delivers an apocalyptic sub-bass, swirling in a melange of post-punk guitar courtesy of Dan Catsis (The Pop Group, Glaxo Babies), topped by Mark's clarion call of dissent. True to Mark's call and response unique style, the charismatic and beautiful Sulene, is a juxtaposition that works wonders on stage adding the feminine element to the confrontational starkness of the live set up and visuals.
The shows have been greatly received with The Times declaring Mark "The Ringmaster of Chaos" and Louder Than War stating, "his pop culture antennae are ever twitching and have brought him to the flexing rhythms of dub step and post step and he has incorporated these into his sound without ever losing the focus of the stripped down sensibility and the intensity of being one of the punk originals."
Continuing an unmatchable track record of pioneering and seismic influence, Mark Stewart is back with his new album The Politics Of Envy whipping up a frenzy of anarchic, confrontational sound in collaboration with such illustrious accomplices as cult film-maker Kenneth Anger, Keith Levene (Clash/PiL), Richard Hell (Television, Voidoids), Lee "Scratch" Perry, Gina Birch (The Raincoats), Tessa Pollitt (The Slits), Douglas Hart (Jesus And Mary Chain), Factory Floor, Daddy G (Massive Attack), all of Primal Scream, Youth (Killing Joke) and Bristol new blood Kahn.

Phil Newall is 47, from The Wirral - he earns his living not writing about music nor playing music...though sorely wishes he could. He was fortunate enough to see many of the first generation punk bands when they played the U18's matinee shows at Eric's, Liverpool. As an attendee at Eric's he was exposed to punk rock, dub reggae, art rock, and all manner of weirdness; as a customer at Probe Records he was variously served and scowled at by Pete Wylie and Pete Burns - he has written for Record Collector, Whisperin & Hollerin, and Spiral Scratch and wanted to write a book detailing the Liverpool punk scene; however with 'Head-On' Julian Cope beat him to it...and frankly did a much better job.

A comparison of the effects of two educative methods based on behavioristic and relationship psychotherapeutic principles with groups of children manifesting primary neurotic learning inhibitions
Toldson, Ivory L.
Advisor: Hayes, Robert E.
Other Identifiers: LD2489.Z64 1971 .T66
Degree: Thesis (D. Ed.)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of two teaching methods, based on diverse principles of psychotherapy, with groups of children manifesting disturbed behavioral patterns. One of the methods was based on principles of behavior modification and the other on high levels of facilitative conditions, or relationship therapy. The variables of experimental interest were arithmetic achievement, adaptive overt behavior and personality adjustment as indicated on several indices. The study attempted to elicit inferences regarding the teaching of adaptive behaviors and cognitive skills to a population of withdrawn children. The comparative effects of the two distinct sets of psychotherapeutic principles were of special interest in this study.The research was conducted in the Marion, Indiana Public Schools. A total of 20 children, 10 in each group, participated in this study. These children were all fourth-graders, selected from the regular classroom. Behaviors of the subjects qualified for the label "emotionally disturbed."They all displayed withdrawn behavior.Careful control was exercised in selecting the teachers for the two experimental groups. A teacher preferring structure and order assumed the instructional responsibility for the behavior modification group. The teacher selected for the relationship group was characterized as a highly sensitive, warm individual. Intermittent consultation was provided each teacher throughout the experiment.The subjects in the experimental groups were compared, on pre and post measures, on the basis of group means and standard deviations, as to IQ, achievement level, grade level, and degree of personality adjustment. Personality adjustment was contingent upon three measures; teacher ratings, peer perceptions, and performance on selective factors on a standardized inventory. The experiment continued for thirteen weeks.In testing for significant differences on educational achievement, the analysis of covariance was used. The Mann-Whitney U was used to test for significant differences on all indices of personality adjustment. Overt adaptive responses during the experimental period were presented graphically. Assessments for variables within each group were also treated graphically.Findings1. The behavioristic educative method was superior to the relationship educative method in enhancing educational achievement. The significance level was established at the .05 level.2. There were no significant differences between the two groups based on teacher perceptions.3. There were no significant differences between the two groups based on peer perceptions.4. In regard to the six factors from the standardized instruments significant differences were found in two instances, at the .05 and .01 levels, both favoring the relationship approach.5. The relationship approach was better than the behavioristic approach in fostering overt, adaptive behavior in the experimental setting.6. In regards to arithmetic achievement within each group, the behavioristic group made an average gain of 1.2 years and the relationship group 0.8 years in grade levels.7. With respect to peer perceptions in each group, the change from pre-test to post-test was very marginal for both groups.8. On all six factors studied on the standardized inventory, pre-test performance of the behavioristic and relationship groups were below average. On the post-test the behavioristic groupperformed average or better on 3 of the 6 factors. The relationship group performed average or better on 4 of the 6 factors.The findings suggest a behavioristic approach is better in fostering arithmetic achievement in withdrawn children. In regard to personality adjustment and overt, adaptive behavior a relationship approach was suggested as being superior by the study.

We've received this image of an advance copy of the upcoming Road & Track issue, and guess what? It has an even better view of the 2014 Corvette's nefarious smile.
Now we have interior and profile shots to boot. And it has a new name. Meet the Stingray.
Earlier today we brought you the cover of Automobile that has a grainy view of the car from the back, but this is undoubtedly the best shot yet of the front of America's next great sportscar.
Obviously, our friends at Automobile or Road & Track don't want us to run these photos, but they're restricted by embargoes and the realities of printed media in a way we are not. Because magazines exist in a different universe, this is like the December 2016 issue, so what harm could there be in putting the as-of-yet-unseen image on the cover?
We've gone out of or way not to play the embargo game for this year's Detroit Auto Show because A: things like this happen and B: we don't like the idea of keeping what we know from our readers just to please some product planner's timeline. We work for you, not the automakers.
You can see the full thing right here, Sunday night, complete with all the details you can handle. Speaking of details, read more about the technical bits of the new Corvette here and tell us what you think below.
UPDATE: More photos from Road & Track's next issue have leaked out to those crazy kooks in the Netherlands. Here's the interior and a profile shot. And if you look closely, there is definitely a Stingray on the side of the car.


I know that my last post was talking about how excited I was for the official start of summer, but, like last year, I seem to be developing a pattern in August of wanting the summer to end. The beach doesn't feel quite as nice as it did in the beginning, and I am sick of the humidity and the heat (more so the humidity). After another one of our girls' nights out, I was on the couch with Z watching the weather yesterday morning, and when the weatherman mentioned a cold front coming in overnight, a smile was brought to my face only to be washed away seconds later when the 5-day forecast was shown and the temperatures did not look to resemble anything of the sorts. It was responsible for the storms of last night, but that was pretty much it. We had been trying to decide if, despite the cloud coverage, it would be a good idea to lay out on the roof top and catch some sun; both of us had laid out the day before (me at the beach and Z on the roof), but we were a little sluggish when coming to a decision. I'm not sure if it was the slight hangover that we both had, or the fact that when we did eventually decide to "try it" and walk outside, the humid heat hit us like a wall that just made me want to run back indoors and hide. I wasn't' the only one thinking that apparently, because, after stopping at Dunkin' Donuts and getting iced caramel lattes, we stepped out onto the roof to find absolutely no one up there. I snapped a couple pictures of the incredible view, and we retreated back to Z's apartment.
Not too long after, I decided to embark on my travels home. Despite my better judgment, I decided to walk the sixteen blocks from Z's place to the subway so that I would take one less train; by the time I was on the platform waiting for the 7, my face was literally soaked. Normally this walk does not produce such results; I blame it on the humidity. When I finally got home, I spent the rest of the day indoors, watching tv and lounging on the couch.
So, the question is: why am I over the summer? I've always gotten over the winter really quickly, but I've never been a fan of the cold…so, why summer? Honestly, I am really not sure, but I do not want to continue this line of thinking into anymore consecutive Augusts. Action must be taken. From this moment, every time I have an inkling of a negative thought towards summer, I will immediately dismiss it and replace it with something positive. For example, this evening, instead of deciding on a somewhere to have dinner, my bf and I will wander around the West Village for a bit and stumble onto a place. Although the weather is hot, there is something to be said about just walking around the city in the summer: you never know what you're going to see or where you're going to end up. Huge bonus: the humidity is supposed to leave this evening and the temperature is supposed to go down to something like 69. Crossing my fingers that it happens and I can finally open up my windows which have been shut since Friday morning when the humidity started settling in.


April 12, 2013 at 1:21 PM was the day Marty McFly arrived in the future. Wow! Again, reading labels is key. Avoiding hidden ingredients always comes back to label reading.

Secretary of State Ruth Johnson announced today that she has summarily suspended the license of a Flint used-vehicle dealer for allegedly failing to follow proper record-keeping procedures required by law.
Mamoon Alenooz has been suspended from operating Mikes CARS LLC, 2101 S. Dort Highway, after two compliance inspections found violations.
Secretary of State regulatory agents conducted an inspection of Mikes CARS recently and discovered nine vehicles sold to customers that the dealership hadn't applied for title and registration within the required 15 days of vehicle delivery. Since that date, three consumer complaint cases have been investigated and an additional no-title complaint was received. A follow-up inspection was conducted that resulted in multiple violations being issued. Investigators found that many records were not available for inspection.
Dealer records are required by law to be maintained and made available for inspection during reasonable or established business hours for a period of five years. Laws requiring detailed recordkeeping protect against the sale of stolen vehicles and parts, and ensure the vehicle buyer receives a valid title and proper registration.
Dealers may request an administrative hearing to contest their suspension and regain their license if they show they've complied with the law. Additional administrative actions are also possible.
Consumers who have a complaint against Mikes CARS are encouraged to call the Office of Investigative Services automotive complaint line at 517-335-1410.

Q: Horizontal Dendrogram with Labels in R I am running into an issue where I can plot a vertical dendrogram with labels but I can't add labels when it is horizontal.
My Data looks like this:
Company Industry1 Industry2 Industry3
Google     3%        5%        6%
Apple      2%        6%        1%

When i import the data, the first column contains my Labels but the rows are just 1, 2, 3 etc.
So my code reads: Data Source Is called Cluster_D
labs = Cluster_D[, 1]
Industry <- Cluster_D
rownames(Industry) <- labs$`Company`

D.Industry <- dist(scale(round(Industry[, -1], 3)), method = "euclidean")
H.Industry <- hclust(D.Industry, method = "ward.D")
plot(H.Industry, labels = Cluster_D$`Company`)

So i assign my labels to the variable 'Labs". I then place my data into another variable "Industry".
Once i plot the data and pass in Labels i get the chart with the clusters I need. The chart works vertically with labels.....but
I have no idea how to get this chart flipped to horizontal and to keep the label names. I tried to use as.dendrogram function which allows me to use horiz=true but i cant keep my labels, as it reverts back to 1, 2, 3 etc.
Can anyone explain to me how I can get correct myself? I am used to use Statistica and i didn't have any issues doing hierarchical clustering, I am trying to pick up R. I feel like it should be super easy to assign labels but I just don't know how.
i tried using the below, but the charts is mislabeled (ABC order).
F.Industries <- as.dendrogram(H.Industry)
labels(F.Industries) <- paste(as.character(Cluster_D[,1]))
plot(F.Industries, horiz = TRUE)

A: As requested by PAR:
data - I added one more column IBM:
z <- read.table(text = "Company Industry1 Industry2 Industry3
Google     3%        5%        6%
Apple      2%        6%        1%
IBM        7%        4%        2%", header = T)

When I try:
scale(round(z[, -1], 3))
#output
Error in Math.data.frame(list(Industry1 = c(2L, 1L, 3L), Industry2 = c(2L,  :
  non-numeric variable in data frame: Industry1Industry2Industry3

Meaning the sample data you provided is not representative of your own.
Convert to numeric:
z = data.frame("Company" = z[,1], apply(z[,-1], 2, function(x) as.numeric(gsub("%", "", x))))

Row names are labels for the leaves
rownames(z) <- z[,1]

D.Industry <- dist(scale(z[, -1]), method = "euclidean")
H.Industry <- hclust(D.Industry, method = "ward.D")

plot(as.dendrogram(H.Industry), horiz = T)

one can adjust the margins with mar
par(mar=c(2, 0, 0, 8))
plot(as.dendrogram(H.Industry), horiz = T)

other approaches include using ape and ggdendro

For better or worse, LinkedIn has become the standard when it comes to professional networking. With thousands of job ads, company reviews, and the ability to build a professional community, LinkedIn has it all. But is it the only option for jobseekers, or are there LinkedIn alternatives when it comes to networking?
According to a survey by Performance-based Hiring, up to 85 percent of all jobs are filled through networking of some kind. That means that even if LinkedIn isn't working for you for some reason, it's worth investigating some alternative ways of networking.
While there is nothing out there quite like LinkedIn, there are alternatives that have some helpful features that can help you network your way into a new job. We've gathered a selection of ideas to help you meet the right people to get the job you want.
Jobcase has been around since 2009, but it didn't enter the professional social media networking space until 2015 when it began offering users a place to ask questions and join professional groups in their industry.
Like LinkedIn, Jobcase has users to create a comprehensive profile that outlines your educational background and professional experience. Unlike LinkedIn, it also asks for information on your preferred salary, soft skills, ideal working conditions, and whether you're interested in relocating. The open-access tool hosts your profile and recommendations; it also offers jobseekers access to a community of 70-million people who share advice and resources to aid in their pursuit of professional goals.
Launched in 2016, Workplace by Facebook touts itself as a recruitment tool with six times the number of company pages as LinkedIn, making it a powerful job search tool for jobseekers. With more than 1,000 organizations around the world currently using Workplace (formerly known as Facebook at Work), the site also touts more than 100,000 professional groups that can be used as an alternative to LinkedIn for professional networking. And, similar to LinkedIn, jobseekers can showcase their skills and experience by uploading their resumes right to the site.
Instagram isn't just for keeping up with the Kardashians anymore. In the U.S. alone, there are roughly 800 million Instagram accounts, with 25 million of those representing active business accounts. This makes Instagram a secret weapon in the job search. Just as many companies use Twitter for sharing job openings, companies are increasingly turning to Instagram to promote not just their job openings but their company culture as well.
Of all of the LinkedIn alternatives, Instagram might be the most underutilized. To start, make a list of companies that interest you and then follow them. Also, be sure to search using a hashtag, the company name, and the word jobs (for example #verizonjobs or #gapjobs) to see a list of the jobs the company posts on Instagram.
When you are looking for LinkedIn alternatives, professional associations offer great opportunities for face-time with other professionals in your field. From classes to committees to social events, most professional associations and organizations offer a variety of ways to get and stay connected, which is invaluable, especially when you are looking for work. Remember to carry business cards with you when you attend events to make it easy for valuable contacts to reach out again later.
You never know who you are going to meet on a given day, especially if you are constantly trying new things. So, get out of the house and mingle. Make a pledge to attend an event of some kind on a regular basis. Once a week, or once a month, choose an event and get going.
These don't have to be events that are directly related to work. You just need to find some sort of event or meet up and make the effort to chat people up once you arrive. Again, have your business cards on hand and distribute them liberally. Not having luck at one event? Try a few different ones. The more variety you add into your networking efforts the more likely you are to meet someone who might be a great professional connection.
Networking isn't a one-way street, so offer your assistance to other jobseekers whenever possible. Asking yourself what you can do for others is a great way to open doors for yourself. After all, a person to whom you've extended a hand is more likely to return the favor.
Whether it's help writing a resume, or introducing another jobseeker to a helpful connection, paying it forward (or reciprocating for people who have helped you in the past) is a great way to get in the good graces of potentially valuable contacts.
