New Album 'Rise Of The Lion' Drops in North America on April 29, 2014 via Rise Records – Pre Order Today via www.MMIRiseOfTheLion.com
Upcoming "Up Close And Personal" Headline Tour Hits the U.S. East Coast in April/May 2014 with For The Fallen Dreams – Ticket Price Includes a Hard Copy CD!
MISS MAY I's blistering new offering, Rise Of The Lion, is set to hit stores in North America on April 29, 2014 via Rise Records (April 28 in the UK, April 25 in Australia). This is MISS MAY I's fourth album and the first to be produced by the legendary Terry Date (Pantera, Deftones, White Zombie, Bring Me The Horizon). The countless fan letters the band has received over the years are the inspiration for the tracks on Rise Of The Lion, and each track is written from the perspective of those fans or responses to them.
Today, the band slams out of the gate with a double dose of metal, offering up their brand new single 'Gone' along with its accompanying music video via the official Rise Of The Lion launch site, www.MMIRiseOfTheLion.com. Take a listen now and while visiting the site, check out the band's three studio updates, as well as tour date information. Beginning today at the site, you can pre-order the album in digital, physical CD, and vinyl versions, as well as special pre-order packages including exclusive Rise Of The Lion shirts, necklaces, posters, and more!
"We wanted to release a video that showed the true bare bones of our band," states frontman Levi Benton. "We really found ourselves on this new record and we felt we needed a video that had no bells and whistles and was just five guys jamming and thrashing. It also shows the creation of the album artwork, which is a real statement about MISS MAY I. The lion logo that is being tattooed represents our band as a whole."
Levi adds, "'Gone' is about heartbreak and feeling like you are lost within that heartbreak. We know everyone has felt this, so as this record being letters back to our fans we wanted to address this. One too many times I have read a letter about someone feeling so broken they felt they felt like they couldn't make it and that our music helped them find a way. This song is for them!"
The worldwide release of Rise Of The Lion will be supported by a brief headline tour of the United States this April and May, with support from For The Fallen Dreams. MISS MAY I's "Up Close and Personal" Tour will stop in eight cities, including a closer in their home state of Ohio at Rock On The Range. Get this – each ticket price includes a copy of Rise Of The Lion hard copy CD!
MISS MAY I U.S. Tour Dates:
4/29 Chicago, IL @ Beat Kitchen
4/30 Grand Rapids, MI @ The Pyramid Scheme
5/1 Pontiac, MI @ The Pike Room at Crofoot Ballroom
5/2 Pittsburgh, PA @ Smiling Moose

5/4 Baltimore, MD @ The Ottobar
5/6 Philadelphia, PA @ The Barbary
5/18 Columbus, OH @ Rock On The Range
After the resounding underground success of their debut full-length release Monument, MISS MAY I took a step beyond the metalcore world they had grown up in with the release of their album At Heart in 2012. The record, produced by renowned record producer Machine (Lamb Of God), proved to be one of the strongest and most surprising metal records of the last few years, spawning huge singles in the songs 'Hey Mister' and 'Day By Day'. Entering the Billboard Top 200 charts in its first week at #32, At Heart saw the band embrace a more mainstream metal approach to their music. During their 2012 Vans Warped Tour main stage onslaught, the At Heart campaign made massive leaps, seeing MISS MAY I nominated for 'Best New Talent' award at the Revolver Golden Gods Awards, as well as headlining the Alternative Press 2012 Tour, and picking up support at Active Rock Radio for the first time. On the live side, the band was hand-picked for tours with the likes of Five Finger Death Punch, Killswitch Engage and Bullet For My Valentine.

LAMB OF GOD Partners with Specticast for Worldwide Distribution of "As The Palaces Burn" Feature Film
Posted in All Metal, Artist Watch, Featured, New Music, News, Photos, Previews, Releases, Reviews, Shows, Uncategorized, Videos with tags As the Palaces Burn, Film, Lamb of God, Randy Blythe, Resolution on December 13, 2013 by Randy
LAMB OF GOD is pleased to announce that they have entered in to a worldwide distribution deal with Specticast (Led Zeppelin Celebration Day, Paul McCartney Rock Show) for their Don Argott (Last Days Here, Art of the Steal, School of Rock) directed feature film "As The Palaces Burn". Filming for the feature began in 2012 and concluded in March of 2013.
"As The Palaces Burn", not to be confused with the making-of documentary packaged with the recent re-release of the 2003 LAMB OF GODalbum of the same name, was conceived to be a documentary focused on the power of music and its impact on cultures around the world and its ability to bring together people of all nationalities regardless of religious or political differences. After a worldwide casting call, filming took place in Colombia, Venezuela, Israel, India, and the United States. As filming reached its conclusion, the documentary was forced to take a major turn when the band's lead singer, Randy Blythe, was arrested in the Czech Republic and charged with the murder of a fan in June 2012. Granted unique access to Blythe's continuing saga, Argott's filming covered Blythe's 38 day imprisonment in Prague, his release and the band's return to live performances, and finally Blythe's trial for murder in Prague in February 2013.
"As The Palaces Burn" will debut worldwide on February 27th. Following the film, a 30 minute Q&A with the entire band and director Don Argott will be shown. The Q&A was conducted by VH1 Classics Eddie Trunk and filmed at the final show of the band's North American tour in support of their most recent release, Resolution.
The trailer for the film can be found at www.asthepalacesburn.com.

In that case, you'll need to contact the academic department for each course to demonstrate that you've met the prerequisites, corequisites or exclusions. Some departments will require that you send them an unofficial version of your transcript. Make sure to do this well before the start of classes so that you aren't removed from your courses.
Have you taken the course before?
You cannot retake a course that you've previously taken for credit at U of T.

1. Style Study - Visit museums specializing in 20th century artifects and design to study and view works by key designers. It's a matter of time before ideas for your home's decor starts flowing.
2. Seek Scandinavian - Danish-influenced pieces are key to modern decor style. This translates to wood-framed furniture and lighting to even wooden bowls and candle holders.
3. Furniture - The kidney-shaped Noguchi table and sturdy wood sideboards are key examples of mid-century decor. Furniture in clean-lined teak or rosewood exemplifies the key characteristics of this decor style.
4. Classic Chairs - Key classic pieces by the likes of Hans Wegner are becoming more expensive due to growing appreciation. As an alternative, scour flea-markets and second-hand shops for classic-inspired chairs.
5. Lighting - There's a good selection of key mid-century designs to pick from. The look can be easily translated to any part of the house.
6. Ceramics - Group together ceramic jars or vases to create an instant statement. Retro junk stores and sometimes the thrift stores are good sources to hunt for them.
7. Great Graphics - Graphic prints on furniture upholstery, curtains and even wallpaper in dusky brown, orange and forest green are ubiquitous with mid-century decor style. Include them in your interior.
8. Flooring and Rugs – Plain, wooden floorboards are de rigeur for mid-century home interior. Liven things up with rugs and upholstery in graphic prints.
9. Glass Act – From hand-cut ash trays to bulbous glass vials, build up a collection of glassware in smoky browns, greens, blues and purples. They're unmistakable in mid-century interior decor.
10. Chrome and Steel – Consider sofas, chairs or tables with chrome legs. They tie in well with the wooden furnishing and flooring.

On this month's episode of Relatively Prime we are excited to bring to you the story of Girls Talk Math. Girls Talk Math is a 2 week mathematics camp for high school women, as well as a podcast made by the campers about women from the history of mathematics. Samuel spoke with the founders Francesca Bernardi and Katrina Morgan about where the idea came from, why they decided to include podcasting as part of the camp, and the ways they reached out beyond the typical women you would expect to want to attend a summer mathematics camp. You can see how you can get involved here.


NASHVILLE — A federal appeals court ruled Jan. 9 to uphold the results of a 2014 statewide vote in Tennessee that provided for stricter abortion regulations in the state.
Contrary to an article in The Tennessean on Jan. 9, Amendment 1 did not make abortions illegal in Tennessee. Rather, the vote enabled state legislators to enact restrictions on abortions that were already in place in neighboring states. A 48-hour waiting period for women seeking abortions was enacted by state legislators and signed into law by the governor in 2015.
Randy C. Davis, executive director of the TBMB, applauded the ruling. "I am very pleased that the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals has chosen not to reverse the will of Tennesseans as expressed in the 2014 Constitutional Amendment vote. The opportunity to continue taking steps for the protection of the unborn in Tennessee continues.
"This is a major victory for life," Davis said.
Brian Harris, president of Tennessee Right to Life, echoed Davis' sentiments.
"Today's (Jan. 9) ruling is a vindication of the state's amendment process and victory for thousands of pro-life Tennesseans who sacrificed to see Amendment 1 passed," Harris said.
"We are grateful to the legislators who placed the amendment on the ballot, to voters who approved it, and to the Attorney General, Secretary of State, and Coordinator of Elections who all worked tirelessly to defend it," he continued.
"The voices of Tennessee's voters have been heard and, as a result, public policy decisions on the matter of abortion can be rightly debated and determined by the people's representatives," Harris added.
Because of Tennessee's lack of restrictions prior to the vote on Amendment 1 in 2014, the state had become an "abortion destination," ranking third in the nation in number of out-of-state abortions.
Amendment One, which added language to the state constitution that said, in part, "nothing in this Constitution secures or protects a right to an abortion," was approved by 53 percent of the vote in 2014.
For Amendment 1 to pass it required a majority of the number of votes cast for governor, which it obtained. Pro-abortion supporters argued that voters had to cast ballots in both the governor's race and on Amendment 1 to have their votes count, according to The Tennessean article.
Opponents of Amendment 1 argued that some voters abstained from voting for a governor while casting ballots on the amendment, which "diluted" the vote.

Japan to open doors to nonbank money transfers
Removal of $9,000 cap to heat competition in business-to-business remittances

TOKYO -- Japan is set to allow nonbank companies to handle money remittances of over 1 million yen ($9,000), lifting a limit that has prevented fintech startups from providing faster and cheaper services in an area dominated by the banking sector.
The Financial Services Agency will grant licenses for large-sum money transfers to companies meeting capital requirements and other conditions. It aims to revise existing legislation to allow the services from mid-2021 at the earliest.
"By creating a new service category, we want to make convenient payment methods a reality," Finance Minister Taro Aso said at a news conference Tuesday.
Remittances, including foreign exchange, are one of banks' three core services along with deposits and lending. Japan allowed nonbank companies to enter money transfer services in 2010, but set a cap of 1 million yen in exchange for looser regulations in its registration system. Banks were able to retain their monopoly on remittances higher than that amount, mostly between businesses.
Consumers are accustomed to using electronic money and other settlement methods provided by nonbanks. Companies, however, must still use banks for business-to-business transactions, which often exceed 1 million yen.
The change represents a breakdown of one barrier protecting banks from new competition. With complaints that bank remittances take too long -- over a week for some international transfers -- the competitive environment is bound to change significantly.
There are currently 64 companies registered as money transfer services. One of them is Line Pay, which allows users of the Line messaging app to send money among themselves for free.
The 1 million yen cap is extremely low for corporations and makes nonbank providers difficult to use for international transfers, said Kristo Kaarmann, founder of TransferWise, a British financial technology company with a remittance network spanning 60 countries that now includes Japan.
TransferWise's smartphone app for sending money.
Removing the limit will help emerging companies enter the field. They are expected to enter business-to-business transfers with cheap fees and quick service.
"We will appropriately respond to various deregulations that are anticipated in the financial field," Line said Tuesday.
Should competition increase in business-to-business remittances, banks will likely have to lower their nearly 10,000 yen international transfer fees.

Will Jeddah tower ever be finished?
Set to be completed by 2020 (but the project stalled first in 2018 and then due to the pandemic and as of today, work is still frozen), the tower will be the tallest in the world, reaching one kilometre into the clouds, a physical manifestation of the ambition behind the Vision 2030 initiative to reduce the kingdom's

Why Dubai Creek Tower Stopped
The Dubai Creek Tower, which was first announced in February 2016, was to be built in time for the city's 2020 World Expo, and would serve as the focal point of a new development along the historic Dubai Creek waterfront. The tower, which is expected to be more than 1,300 metres tall, would overshadow the adjacent Burj Khalifa and surpass it as the highest man-made building ever erected. It would serve as a showcase for everything the Middle East has to offer, much like the Eiffel Tower did during the 1889 World's Fair in Paris.
So, what exactly happened to Dubai Creek Tower, and what are the possibilities that this very ambitious construction will ever become a reality are you asking?
EMAAR Properties provided the image for this post.
Despite its enormous height, the project would only have 20 floors, which would be home to observation decks, restaurants, and a hotel, among other things.
Both of these goals were achieved: the first was to add another jaw-dropping tourist attraction to the city, and the second was to ensure that Dubai retained the title of "world's tallest structure." Above: The skyscraper would have overshadowed the neighbouring Burj Khalifa, which stands 828 metres tall.
In 2013, Saudi Arabia began construction of the Jeddah Tower, which will be the world's first skyscraper to reach a height of one kilometer.
Building such a massive project solely to keep the world's tallest building title may appear to be a waste of time and resources, but having the world's tallest building in your nation can really be a strategic economic gain.
It has also contributed to the city's annual influx of roughly 20 million tourists and the USD$30 billion in revenue they generate.
AdrianSmith + Gordon Gill Architecture provided the image for this post.
It was a kind of insurance policy for Dubai, allowing it to maintain its sought status without having to construct a full tower in the process.
After its key finance supporters were arrested as part of Saudi Arabia's anti-corruption crackdown, construction on the Jeddah Tower came to a grinding halt in January 2018.
Around the same time, construction on Dubai Creek Tower came to a halt, with just the foundations of the structure having been built.
While the foundations have been poured, little else has been built since the beginning of the year 2018.
Dubai's property market has also suffered in recent years, as a result of the lingering impact from the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, as well as a decline in the price of oil, which has resulted in an oversupply of residences and offices in the city.
Despite the challenging environment, EMAAR Properties maintains that the skyscraper will be finished by 2022, which is a realistic expectation given the tower's relatively basic construction.

"We don't build anymore": Emaar confirms suspension of new construction in Dubai
According to Bloomberg, Mohamed Alabbar, the company's chairman, said at a business conference in Dubai on Monday on the relationship between the UAE and Israel "We are no longer in the construction industry. New advances were halted by the government bodies over a year ago, but Covid was the one who slammed the brakes on everything for good." A number of large projects in the emirate were said to have been put on hold early this year, prompting the business to make the announcement. In a recent report, Bloomberg reports that Emaar has rejected requests to halt building in order to avoid a surplus of supplies, despite a 30 percent drop in house prices since 2014.
He went on to say that real estate is a cyclical business, and that the demand for his properties is increasing.
He stated, "I'm not going to lie, I'm not going to lie." "We have an excess of inventory, but Dubai is a fairly priced destination.
According to Alabbar, the company has rebounded to a daily sales volume of $12 million after experiencing a sales decline.
The Reuters news agency reported in April of this year that Emaar has halted construction on key projects in the United Arab Emirates.

As a result of the coronavirus outbreak in Dubai, the CEO of Emaar foregoes his income and suspends work. Emaar intends to sell a $1.4 billion asset as the Dubai real estate market continues to deteriorate. Emaar intends to build a Dubai tower that will be "a notch higher" than the Burj Khalifa.

Dubai Creek Tower (The Tower) project timeline and all you need to know
The Dubai Creek Tower, also known as the tower, is a mixed-use project being developed by Emaar Properties, an Emirati multinational real estate development company, on a site in the vicinity of Dubai Creek, which is a waterfront area located nearRas Al Khor National Wildlife Sanctuary. The project is being developed by Emaar Properties, an Emirati multinational real estate development company. The proposed Dubai Creek Harbor would include the Dubai Creek Tower, which is a component of the proposed Dubai Creek Harbor.
The Dubai Creek Tower will serve as the focal point of the Dubai Creek Harbor development.
Dubai Creek Tower design overview
Barcelona Calatrava, a Spanish architect, sculptor, and structural engineer, and his team collaborated on the design of the Dubai Creek Tower, which was built in collaboration with Aurecon, a company that specializes in engineering and project management services as well as design, planning, and project management services. Taking inspiration from the natural shape of a lily bud, the Tower's design incorporates the idea of a minaret, which is a slender tower that is often found as a component of a mosque and has a balcony from which a muezzin invites Muslims to prayer.
Also see One Chicago Tower facts and chronology for further information.
The steel cables that will be utilized on the construction will be the longest ever used on a structure.
The top of the tower will be oval-shaped, with 10 observation decks, two of which will be garden decks, constructed in the style of Babylon's hanging gardens, and the Pinnacle Room, which will provide unmatched 360-degree panoramic views over the city and the surrounding area.
A central plaza with a circumference of 500m will feature retail spaces, a museum, educational institutions, and an auditorium, among other things.
Furthermore, the primary structure and steel cables will be lighted to draw attention to the tower's architecture.
The construction of Dubai Creek Tower is scheduled to take place in three phases.
The third phase entails steelwork, which includes the manufacture of steel cables, among other things.
When completed, the Dubai Creek Tower will be the world's highest structure, reaching a height of not less than 1300 meters, surpassing the present world's tallest structure, the Burj Khalifa, which is located around 8 kilometers away.
During a presentation to Sheikh Mohammed in February, ideas for the projected Dubai Creek Tower were offered to him. He ultimately picked the design by Santiago Calatrava and his colleagues. The final design was shown on February 27th, according to the company. Engineers finished the project's seismic research and wind testing in late July, according to the company. The results of the tests are essential in determining the final height of the structure. Beginning in October, around 170,000 cubic meters of dirt were dug in order to create room for the tower's foundation, a step that was necessary to prepare the site for construction.
In the years 2017-2018, the foundation work was finished.
2019 China State Engineering and Building (CSCEC) was said to have been actively involved in the tender process for the construction of the Dubai Creek Tower in July of this year, according to reports.
2020 The research was put on hold in April as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak.
Additionally, the abundance of available real estate in Dubai has tempered the excitement of developers, and Emmar Properties, the developer of Dubai Creek Tower, is no exception.

Work halted on world's tallest building in Dubai amid coronavirus saga
The construction of what may be the world's tallest tower in Dubai's famed Creek Harbour has been suspended as the Coronavirus outbreak increases the real estate slowdown in the city. Emaar Properties, the largest publicly traded developer in the United Arab Emirates, has halted construction on all major projects in the city, including The Tower, which is expected to be taller than the Burj Khalifa when completed. Even though the business has not yet revealed the precise height that The Tower will reach when finished in 2020, a statement published at the groundbreaking ceremony in 2016 stated that it will be the "world's highest tower when completed in 2020." It seems to be taller than any other skyscraper in Dubai Creek Harbour, according to renderings of the structure.
Photographs taken during construction by Emaar Properties show the skyscraper's footprint, which can be seen above.
Despite the fact that the Burj Khalifa has held the distinction of the world's tallest structure since 2010, Emaar has paused construction at Dubai Creek Harbour, a development that is expected to provide housing for 200,000 people.
After being under a nightly curfew since March 26, authorities have recently strengthened the limits on movement and access.
It was widely expected to be completed in time for the Expo 2020 trade expo, which Dubai was planning to host from October to December of this year.
At this time, there have been over 1,800 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the United Arab Emirates, with ten reported deaths.
Due to the coronavirus epidemic, the building was expected to be completed in time for the 2020 Expo trade exhibition, which has now been postponed until further notice.
Following the resignation of Chairman Mohamed Alabbar, Emaar announced that other employees will have their wages slashed by as much as 50 percent, according to a letter seen by Reuters and verified by a source at Emaar.
Sector upheaval forced Dubai officials to establish a committee to balance supply and demand, and buildings on the Palm, which was previously one of the city's most coveted addresses, are now selling at a discount to the cost of construction, according to The Financial Times.
In recent years, the style of designer Santiago Calatrava Valls has been described as "bridging the divide between structural engineering and architecture." The final tower, according to pre-construction plans by Spanish-Swiss architect Santiago Calatrava Valls, would be shaped like a minaret that will be secured to the ground with strong cables.
Upon completion, The Tower will contain observation decks that will provide 360-degree views of the surrounding coastal metropolis. According to Emirates 247, it is located close to the Ras Al Khor National Wildlife Sanctuary in Oman.
Dubai Creek Tower facts and information – The Tower Info
This area is being developed as part of a large project known as Dubai Creek Harbor, in which many new buildings will be constructed. Dubai Creek Harbor is planned to be a new district in Dubai, similar to the districts of Dubai Marina, Business Bay and Downtown Dubai, but it will be three times the size of Downtown Dubai, covering an area of 6 sq km (2.3 sq miles), with the Dubai Creek Tower serving as the focal point of the development. Dubai Creek Harbor is located 8 kilometers east of the Burj Khalifa, on the banks of the Dubai Creek.
The developer, Emaar, will not reveal the precise height of Dubai Creek Tower until the building's formal inauguration in 2022 or later, in order to effectively prevent its height from being surpassed by certain possible competing developments.
At the same time, the video suggests that the height of the 5 Dubai Creek Tower when added together is equal to the height of the 8 Burj Khalifa, which would place the tower's height at 1345 meters.
Since there can be no doubt that the Jeddah Tower in Saudi Arabia will not be that tall, if it is indeed over 1300 meters tall, it will become the world's highest tower and man-made building, surpassing both the Burj Khalifa in Dubai and the Empire State Building in New York.
Because a structure is considered a building only if at least fifty percent of its height is habitable, Dubai Creek Tower is unlikely to be recognized as the world's tallest building.
The CTBUH criteria is controversial and not universally accepted; however, the developer of Dubai Creek Tower and the media are likely to continue to refer to the tower as being the world's tallest building because the tower's form is unlike any other sightseeing tower and thus stands out from the rest of the world.
The observation decks and sky gardens on the Dubai Creek Tower will be the primary uses of the structure.
The antenna on top of the mountain will be utilized for broadcasting purposes.
On the left is Santiago Calatrava, and on the right is the head of Emaar Properties In addition to the World Trade Center Transportation Hub in New York City and the renovated Olympic Athletic Center of Athens in Athens, some of his more well-known works include He had also created various buildings, like the Turning Torso in Malmo, which is an iconic spiral-shaped building; another skyscraper is the legendary Chicago Spire, which was a cancelled tower in Chicago that was once meant to be the highest building in America and was never completed.
Santiago Calatrava states that the natural form of the lily, a type of plant that can be found in desert places, was the inspiration for his design for the Dubai Creek Tower.
The cable arrays on the Dubai Creek Tower, which were inspired by the ribbing of lily leaves, are the building's most distinguishing feature.
The replica at Dubai Mall displays the finer elements of the cables and cable anchors in more detail.

There were six proposals for the design of the Dubai Creek Tower, each submitted by a different international architectural firm from different parts of the world.
Engineers completed seismic studies and wind tests in late July 2016, and the results of the tests are critical in determining the final height of the tower.
In the following weeks, 145 piles were erected and sunk into the bottom of the lake at a depth of 75 meters, and 210 thousand tonnes of concrete were poured to build the foundation.
After that, however, there has been very little development done above ground.
At one point, the project was scheduled to be finished in 2020.
Furthermore, because it is a supported tower, the building period will be significantly shorter; for example, the 629-meter KVLY TV Mast in North Dakota was completed in only 30 days, thus completion by 2020 is entirely feasible, but only provided the work is not interrupted.

Q: AngularJs Directive get radio button ng-model value on change I have created an Angular js Directive that loops through ng-repeat and if users chooses any of those radio button, it should alert the current ng-model value.
But its not working. Please help.

var someapp = angular.module('someapp', []);

someapp.controller('someappCtrl', function($scope, $http) {
  //...

}).directive('checkthemChoice', function() {
  return {
    restrict: 'A',
    template: '<input type="radio" ng-checked="$first" name="selecttable" ng-model="radioSelected" value="{{ choice }}" id="{{ choice }}"> {{ choice }}',
    link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
      scope.choices = ['organization', 'user'];

      element.on('change', function() {
        //this selected the parent DIV checkthem
        //but I want select the radio input inside LABEL
      });

      scope.$watch('radioSelected', function(val) {
        //this doesnt work
        alert(val);
      });
    }

});

A: This works.
radioSelected needs to be a property of an object (for example, test). The explanation is given here https://github.com/angular/angular.js/wiki/Understanding-Scopes
Also, I have a put a test for undefined in the watch to avoid the first alert on load.

var someapp = angular.module('someapp', []);

  //...

}).directive('checkthemChoice', function() {

      element.on('change', function() {
        //this selected the parent DIV checkthem
        //but I want select the radio input inside LABEL
      });
