It's that time of the year when Manchester United Cafe Bar launches its month long special menu. Last year, it was a range of pizzas, this time there are as many as 19 varieties of burgers to gorge on. The ongoing International Burger Festival has a special menu of burgers named after soccer players from different regions. So you can choose from Baichung Burger from India, Ola Hernandez Burger from Mexico or the Zeng Cheng Burger from China, among others. The names make the burgers sound yummy already, don't they?
A platter of the Mexican, Thailand and Lebanese mini-burgers.
The likes of Wayne Rooney, Freddy Adu and Baichung Bhutia are being dished out at a cafe bar in the city — definitely the thought of devouring these gorgeous burgers can't just be passed on!
I dropped by at Man Utd and saw many fans indulging in the long list of burgers. A glance at the menu and it was clear that a lot of thought had been put into its making.
I went to MUCB determined to feast on at least 10 of the 19 special burgers. But one look at the size of each burger and I knew it would take a miracle to get past even one! That's when I was introduced to a combo platter of 4 Mini Burgers. Cute little versions of the Thailand, Lebanese, Mexican and Indian burgers come on a tray with assorted dips and french fries. A general observation was that keeping in cue with international standards, none of the burgers were too spicy and all came with layers of lettuce, onions, customised spices and sauces. Unfortunately, the mini-burgers' selection is restricted to only four vegetarian and non vegetarian options. A spirit dampener, because otherwise one can easily devour 10 – 15 minis. Meat lovers can rejoice as the choices range from chicken, crab, lobster, pork and beef burgers.
There are a variety of combo offers too. The Old Trafford Home Combo has Indian, Mexican, Lebanese and England burgers with fries, salad and five international dips, for Rs 700 + taxes.
The Mexican mini-burger. Cheese slices, chicken patty, tangy salsa, chipotle mayonnaise and jalapenos. A wholesome little meal on its own!
Irish House, which had only one Mumbai address till now – in Palladium at Lower Parel, now has an outpost in Kala Ghoda. My friends and I dropped by on a weekend and were pleased to see that Kala Ghoda now has another cool joint to unwind in. Looks and ambience wise, both the joints are almost identical, a common trait with most restaurant/pub chains. Dim lights, super cool music and plate full of food pretty much summarises Irish House. Yes, Ireland is a cold place and the guys like their food to arrive in big portions and they have a soft corner for beer and all things meaty. Irish House doesn't disappoint when it comes to recreating Ireland to the core, and dare I say, it does bring to life a small yet significant piece of the local Irish culture in Mumbai. I mean think about it, aren't you fed up of being served six pieces of perfectly sliced fried potato when you order French Fries in most joints. Ask for Nachos and you'll be staring at a plate with 10 triangles with creamy sauce on, if you're lucky, four of them. In Irish House, one serving of Nachos is enough to keep you going for the next hour or two.
On the drinks front, the joint has several types of beer for aficionados. Murphy's and Chinese beer to name a few. Ask for an assortment of Beer shots if you are in the mood to sample 'em all. The bar boasts of over 30 varieties of beer, Irish whiskies and single malts. Cocktails such as the Chocolate Martini (recommended) and several spiced Mojitos are also on the menu. The Mexican Mojito was a hit with those who like their drinks laced with a tangy minty flavor. We also loved the Smoked Chicken Crostini, Rs250 (smoked chicken and artichoke with mozzarella on toasted bread) and the Rolling Duck, Rs 425 (aromatic roasted duck wrapped in a spring roll and served with chili plum sauce). Lamb Pie, The Irish Lions Chicken Tenders and the Prawns Chermoula are a few of the other must-haves from the menu.
On the down side, the Onion rings, which is listed as the World's Best Onion Rings, Rs 200, on the menu is a disaster with oil dripping on the edges and street side bhajiya like coating to them and are an instant put off.
But who really goes to a bar to enjoy a hearty meal? At least not anyone I know… So, generous portions of good food are just an added reason to visit Irish House. The real reason, of course, is to soak in a distinct vibe that each bar/lounge/pub emits. Irish House has an unmistakable laid back Irish charm to it. Wooden décor here plays a very vital role in establishing laid back and gung ho in the same space. Irish House doesn't compromise on space either. There are all types of seating, near the bar, corner tables, bar stools and regular tables laid out for guests. You'll find young collegians, corporate groups, foreigners and even senior citizens in designer garbs letting their hair down at Irish House. Obviously, a haunt that is attracting people from all walks and age groups, has to have something to write home about, no?
The biggest difference, in my experience as a food addict, between the quality of preparations in a fine dining restaurant and a regular joint is how you feel, 30 minutes after your meal. Think of how your stomach feels after consuming half a plate of oily biryani from a road side joint. Most would say, stuffed and heavy, like they've had enough for the next two days!! Food well prepared doesn't make you feel like that. The tummy is satiated with the food levels gradually filling you up. The soul is nourished.
36 Oak & Barley, at Kemps Corner, gets full marks for that pleasant after feeling, even though you may have just hogged on 8-10 dishes. My friends and I had that many dishes (of course, we shared each preparation), and most dishes were generous with butter and olive oil in them.
I won't get into 'must-try' dishes here. That, I believe, depends on individual tastes. But I will testify to the fact that dishes served had succulent chicken chunks, fresh Basa and silky Goat's cheese in them. When the key ingredients are impressive, you can't help but take a liking to the food, can you? Chef Nachiket Shetye, the man behind the dishes is known for mix-n-match styles; combining unlikely ingredients to come up with preparations with a twist.
The Chicken Dumplings come with Spiced Thai Coconut Broth and the 36 O&B Signature Tomato and Basil Soup is served with a lump of orange sorbet. An unusual combination, you can taste spice and the fruity sorbet distinctly with each spoonful. The Ravioli, traditional Italian filled pasta, was floating in olive oil, and I soaked each square some more in the fragrant oil before gulping them down. Heaven.
The dessert menu has a lot of options with chocolate in them, but we went with Nachiket's recommendation and had the Vanilla and Berry Panna Cotta. A die hard chocolate fan, it takes a lot for me to praise desserts without any chocolate in them. But I'll admit that this one offers balance to the taste buds, the vanilla Panna Cotta comes alive with the berry mush as an accompaniment. A rocker, indeed!!!

Port Canaveral is one of the world's busiest cruise port. There are seven cruise lines, with six major cruise terminals. There is 750,000 square feet (70,000 m2) of covered freight storage capacity. It handled 4,000,000 short tons (3,600,000 t) of cargo in 2004. The port has contributed $500 million annually to the county's economy.
Although Brevardians may refer to past storms as "hurricanes", by the time they strike there, some of them may have subsided to tropical storms or depressions. Because of the threat of storm surge, the beach community on the barrier island is often required to evacuate well in advance of the storm.[25] The possibility of storm surge is diminished when the storm comes across the state instead of from the Atlantic.[26]
A concern has been the probable reassignment of thousands of Space Coast workers when the Space Shuttle is discontinued in 2010. In 2010, 9,000 jobs were expected to be lost from the shuttle and other programs.[167] Each launch contributed $4 million to the county's economy. Annually,$78 million is spent at the Space Center Visitor's Complex, and $5.9 million from space business visitors.[168]
The population was distributed by age with 19.8% under the age of 18, 7.9% from 18 to 24, 21.5% from 25 to 44, 30.4% from 45 to 64, and 20.4% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 45.5 years. For every 100 females there were 96.1 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 93.9 males.[85] In 2010, the oldest person in the county was a 110-year-old Titusville man.[86]
In 2011, the majority of groceries were sold in chain stores. Publix has 23 stores; Winn-Dixie has 10; Wal-Mart has 12 stores; the county has three warehouse clubs. 38% of groceries were purchased at Publix, 30% at Wal-Mart superstores, and 7% at Winn-Dixie.[220]
Like MLS, RLS has under contract, sold and days on market data, and houses rental listings as well. There is a database, which in 2011, was slated to be converted to the more familiar RETS standard in January 2012. The RLS gateway is populated by several private databases that include RealtyMX (RMX), Online Residential (OLR) and Realplus, another proprietary database available to Manhattan Brokers. These databases exchange data continually effectively creating several separate systems with essentially similar data. Another vendor, Klickads, Inc D/B/A Brokers NYC, owned by Lala Wang sued in 2007 to be included in the list of firms permitted to participate in the Gateway. REBNY also grandfathered the major brokerages including Douglas Elliman, Corcoran, Stribling, Bellmarc as participants to the Gateway.
Brevard county commissioners are elected by the public to establish ordinances and policies for the county. The Commission appoints a County Manager, who executes the will of the Commission. The county employed about 2,900 workers in 2009.[99]
There are 40 4-H-related clubs in the county, including livestock- and pet-related and after-school clubs.[179] As in all Cooperative extension service, a land grant college, the University of Florida, conducted over 60 courses in 2010 in aid of 4-H programs and other agricultural pursuits.[180]

Though the area has a relatively small number of high technology companies, 736, a business journal ranked it eighth in the country as a high tech center in 2009. The area had 23,096 high-tech jobs with a ratio of 124 per 1,000 total jobs.[148]
Influenced by the presence of the John F. Kennedy Space Center, Brevard County is also known as the Space Coast. As such, it was designated with the telephone area code 321, as in 3-2-1 liftoff. The county is named after Theodore Washington Brevard, an early Florida settler, and state comptroller.
A pending sale means the seller has an offer but hasn't closed yet. (This is different from a contingent sale.) A property is placed in pending status the minute a contract is executed. But there's still a chance the home can be up for grabs again—say, if the inspection doesn't check out or the buyer can't pull together the financing.

Florida Power & Light maintains an oil-fired generating plant at Sharpes; it generates 800 megawatts (1,100,000 hp), supplying most of the requirements for the county. In 2008 the company announced plans to replace the plant with a more efficient natural gas-powered plant in 2013 with a 1,250 megawatt capacity, which can supply 250,000 homes or businesses.[250] Near FPL's plant is the Indian River Power Plant; formerly owned by the Orlando Utilities Commission, it is now owned and operated by RRI Energy.
The county had 1,050 restaurants in 2007 and nearly that many (1,040) in 2010. There were 22,600 leisure and hospitality workers in the county in 2006. This figure includes hotel workers. That figure had dropped 8.5% to 20,700 in 2010.[172]
Monthly foreclosures exceeded 746 from January 2009 through October. Maximum monthly home sales were less than 584 during that time frame, creating an accumulating backlog of unsold homes.[157] In 2010, there were 15,000 more vacant homes than the economy could absorb; the population was not growing.[147]
The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex offers an educational look at the accomplishments of America's space program. The Observation Gantry near Launch Complex 39 offers a view of the Space Shuttle launch pads (first built for the Apollo missions), the Vehicle Assembly Building, and the crawlerway over which rockets are taken to the pad. The Apollo/Saturn V Center displays an example of the largest rocket ever launched.[citation needed]

This said, it is not entirely inconceivable that new systems will be introduced to the market that share information horizontally across the market, not only between agents (under a fee sharing arrangement), but with other participants in the transaction such as mortgagors and surveyors. Moreover, UK estate agencies have shown resistance to the inflating fees charged by large property portals. In any case, the future of MLS in the UK will most probably be shaped by changes to competition law, consumer behaviours and the rate of technological advancement.

Drillers To Face More Legislation, Regulations
By Danny Lewis
Regulation, legislation and certification are three words drilling contractors can expect to be hearing more and more in the 21st century.
While those three words strike fear in the hearts of some contractors, they also can mean important changes in safety, education, training, and many other areas of the industry, according to three men in the drilling industry.
"If you look at what's required now for a driller, he's no longer just a laborer. He's got to have a commercial driver's license, and he has to be trained in Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements, such as the 40-hour hazardous waste training if he's drilling environmental projects. It will be a challenge for drillers to keep up with all the training requirements and be aware of all the new regulations that will be coming out, and those change from time to time" said Alan Garrard, supervisor of drilling for the Southern Company, the parent of several electric companies.
"The bad part of it is things will go up in cost because of the regulations. Anytime a new regulation is passed, it's almost a rule of thumb that it will cost a driller more to stay in compliance with the regulation," Garrard added.
Besides state licensing programs and federal regulations from the Department of Transportation (DOT), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), E.H. Renner & Sons President Roger Renner said drillers are also being regulated via other licensing programs, such as background checks when they obtain or renew a driver's license.
"When you get your driver's license, they can check a computer and they can tell if you've ever had a ticket, a warrant issued against you, if you are a deadbeat dad or a tax evader. If you have anything outstanding, you won't get a license to drive a car, a fishing or hunting license, or a license for a boat, a four-wheeler or a license to operate a rig. Big Brother just stepped into your life and that's here now," Renner said
He added drillers need to become pro-active in meeting with legislative and regulatory officials to discuss proposed regulations before they take effect.
"We've got to be involved and we've got to be more serious about what we do as drillers," Renner said. "I have 35 employees working for me and that's 35 families I'm responsible for. If drillers don't get educated about the industry, that's one thing, but if they don't get involved, that's another thing."
Noting more safety-related regulations will likely be implemented in the 21st century to protect drillers on the job, Renner cautioned that regulations don't keep people from taking shortcuts and trying to bypass safety features on equipment. "The equipment is only as good as the people working on it, and the operator is only as good as the person who trained him," he said.
Roy Yoder, a drilling contractor from Montezuma, GA, said he believes obtaining certification as a driller is one of the most important things a contractor can do professionally and to better educate himself about the industry.
"We need to be smarter as drillers. It used to be all brawn and no brains in the drilling business, but today it's brains and some brawn," Yoder said.
"We need to know our product in terms of formations, hydrology, the legal aspects and things such as that. The potable water supply is only about 1% of the water on Earth, so we need to know how to protect and not contaminate it. A lot of drillers aren't into drilling to protect the groundwater. They're in it for the money."
Yoder, a certified Master Ground Water Contractor, said attaining that certification in the drilling industry is comparable to receiving a college degree or becoming a doctor.
"Certification is a tough thing to get and most of the fly-by-night guys may be licensed, but they don't have any kind of certification," he said. "We need to have a certification program in place to get people educated. When you are educated you change from a well digger to a well driller. You get more respect and you understand things better."
Danny Lewis is the former editor of The Driller.

Points: 264 Topic: Completely NATURAL??????
If I dye my hair does that mean I'am not longer natural, or does that only apply to relaxers.
Not to be funny but why does that matter? If you want to dye your hair, go for it! Feeling comfortable and happy with your look is more important than a title.
Ur still natural just color treated. I've dyed my hair plenty of times and my texture didn't change.
generally that only applies to relaxers. .if you wanna be technical about it, natural means no chemicals period, but in the applied or colloquial use, you would still be considered natural. however, with that said, sometime bleach can have a light relaxing effect upon the texture of your hair. i know it slackened my curl by degrees and my bleached hair portion maintain their straightness better and retain it longer than my non-dyed roots do. So there is that to consider.
U are still natural and as chinadoll mentioned post a pic!!

Jim 'Jumbo' RyanProgram for Cashel King Cormac's Benefit Night at Thurles Greyhound Track, August 8, 2000.
Jim 'Jumbo' Ryan
Program for Cashel King Cormac's Benefit Night at Thurles Greyhound Track, August 8, 2000.
Jim, mostly known as Jumbo, Ryan is big, not only in stature but in the greyhound world as well. He believes he must have been a big baby because he's been called Jumbo as long as he can remember. In fact, so used is he to the name that when he was in the U.S. and was occasionally called Jim, he wouldn't answer to the name.
A native of the Commons, Cashel he was actually born in Hill House, Cashel which was a nursing home at the time, run by Nurse Rouse. Significantly, he is now living in Bohermore, virtually in the shadow of the house where he first saw the light of day in May 1934.
The family nickname was 'Jilly', to differentiate them from all the other Ryans and his father's people came from Cloneyross, Drombane. The father's name was Mattie, a farmer, with an interest in dogs. According to Jumbo he made good money out of them 'when a £ was worth a £.' He won the Irish Plate at Clounanna about 1943 with Cloneyross Lass.
Jumbo was the third of four boys. Tommy was the eldest and continues to farm the home place. Mickey also lives in the Commons. The fourth boy, Mattie, lives in Lagganstown. The boys played hurling with the Cashel King Cormac's. Jumbo won west minor medals in 1949 and 1952 and was on the junior hurling team which won the 1953 county final. Mickey was also on the team and Mattie was on the panel. He also played senior football with Rockwell Rovers.
Jumbo grew up with greyhounds. He recalls a daily chore after school of walking the dogs three miles daily. Life was tough and he learned to work hard, which stood him good stead later. But there were relaxations. Pheasant and duck shooting and helping out the local coursing club for their two-day annual meet were enjoyed. 'I found the hare drives very exciting. To be among sixty or more beaters was great. It was all good, healthy outdoor exercise and great fun.'
He remembers begging his parents for permission to see his first film in 1949 at the Rock Cinema in Cashel. Part of the show was a screen account of the Tipperary-Laois All-Ireland, which Tipperary won by 3-11 to 0-3. Prominent on the Tipperary panel was local hero and super star, Jim Devitt.
He decided to emigrate in 1959 and the place he chose was St. Paul, the twin city of Minneapolis in Minnesota. There was reason for his choice of destination. A shooting buddy, Joe Gould of Rosegreen, was going there and he went along. They later sponsored two friends to follow them.
His first job was in the Northland Ski Company that manufactured snow skis, toboggans, ice-hockey sticks, snow shoes, etc. He worked as a dispatcher. The skis from this place went all over the U.S. Most of the brand names in skis and toboggans originated here. People who bought expensive brands believed they were getting specially made skis whereas all they were getting was a conveyor-belt production with the brand name stuck on. Some of the skis he despatched were used in the winter Olympics at Squaw Valley, California in 1960 by the United States Olympic team.
His next job was also far-removed from farming and greyhounds. He got a job in a factory which made parts for aircraft and worked in this from 1960 to 1972. He made impellers for planes and the only greyhound he saw during this time was one being shipped through Minneapolis airport.
It wasn't all work. While in Minnesota he started a hurling team. The Cashel King Cormac's club presented him with a set of jerseys and socks, supplied by E.D. Ryan of Friar Street. When he was returning to Ireland he brought back the jerseys and presented them to Cashel C.B.S. He recalled a game he played in Chicago: 'Can you imagine driving a 900 miles round trip, play a game in ninety degree heat and be back for a 6 am start at work on Monday morning.'
He also looked after other important matters. He had met Aggie Grant from Bank Place, Cashel, who worked as a nurse in the Miller Hospital, St. Paul, and they got married on Independence Day, 1964. The 'Miller' name was to have further significance.
The married couple retired back to Ireland in 1972 and it was to be the first of three retirements! Jumbo had done well in Minnesota but the cold was severe in the winter.
They bought Pine Lodge from Pat Dalton, a house with fifteen acres on the Old Road. It was called Pine Lodge after a horse which won money for Jumbo at 11/1. Here he went into breeding and training in what came to be known as the Minnesota Kennels.
His first bitch was Letesia, which he bought in Scotland for £40. He knew this bitch for some time as it had been owned by his brother, Mickey. It had made the top price of £525 at the Shelbourne sales. Jumbo had been on the lookout for her after he decided to come back to Ireland and go into breeding. She cost £40 as a brood bitch.
Waterloo Cup
The first litter of pups he ever produced was from Letesia and the sire was Bright Lad, which was owned by Mickey. One of the litter was called Minnesota Miller and it was to make Jumbo famous. Born in August 1973 the dog started racing during 1975 and coursing early in 1976. He won a few races on the track at Thurles but really made his name coursing. Between January 4 and February 13, 1976 Minnesota Miller won eighteen successive flags, including the Clarke Cup, the Blue Riband of Irish open coursing in Old Carton, Co. Meath, and the Waterloo Cup, the Blue Riband of English coursing.
He came back to win a 575 on the track at Thurles and then he featured in a triple dead heat for second place in a big stake at the same venue. Only three dogs could go forward and a draw was made for two of the three. Minnesota Miller was last out and Jumbo decided to retire him to stud. He was a good stud dog and produced, among others, an Irish Derby winner, Suir Miller, for his owners, Willie and Betty Flood of Laganstown.
A repeat mating of Letesia and Bright Lad produced, among others the equally famous, Minnesota Yank. It won the Waterloo Cup in 1977, the year after Minnesota Miller. It was the first Irish double to be registered in the event since Master McGrath achieved the feat in 1869. It was also the first time in the history of the classic that two full brothers had triumphed. Minnesota Yank was the first Waterloo winner to return and win a thirty-two all-age stake. In fact, he won two in succession.
Jumbo raced Minnesota Yank once after Waterloo and won at Mullingar. He then sold him to an English owner. At this time he was very busy, had too many dogs and was finding it difficult to carry on a training and a breeding program.
Jumbo hoped to win the Waterloo Cup for a third time in 1978. The dog he had in mind to achieve the treble was a litter brother of Yank, Minnesota Swank, who had been racing in the U.S. and was shipped back to Ireland for the cup. There was a great attraction in winning a treble in the classic. The cup was a very valuable gold trophy and would be won outright with the third victory. However, the Waterloo Cup wasn't run in 1978 so he never got a chance. However, as he said 'Two for two wasn't too bad for a Rookie!'
He continued training and breeding in Pine Lodge for thirteen years. He was a very busy man, in great demand for breeding and training. He recalls having dogs racing at three different tracks on the same night. He had some faithful travelling companions to many meets, especially to Altcar for the Waterloo Cup. These were his brother, Mickey, Dick Walsh of Newinn and John Morrissey of Cashel. Older brother, Tommy, was a great help at local weekend meets. Life was good but he was on the go all the time and decided to retire for the second time, this time to Florida.
He sold out and went to Florida but he didn't quite give up the dogs. He became an assistant to Pat Dalton, who kept two places with about seventy dogs in each. He prepared the dogs for races and continued to have a good eye for the right dog. One such was Spartan Sun, which he spotted in Pat Dalton's kennel in Boston in 1985 and bought for $4,000 as a wedding anniversary present for his wife. Within two months he had won the $150,000 Wonderland Derby. Prior to that he had reached the final of the Wonderland Sprint Classic and, only for an error in the final, could have won that as well. It was a wonderful anniversary present even though Aggie had been a bit sceptical when he told her about it.
After thirteen years in Florida Jumbo and Aggie decided to retire again, this time to Ireland. Earlier they had bought a residence in Bohermore and came back there in 1997. It was about their fifteenth change of residence but he believes they are home to stay. As Jumbo reminisces on his years he can look back to major achievements, which include classic victories in three countries, and to a life full of incident and excitement. He can also be sure that wherever dogs are spoken of the names of Minnesota Miller and Minnesota Yank, as well as the bitch Letesia and the sire Bright Lad, not forgetting Spartan Sun, will be remembered.

Catie Curtis – Hello Stranger (2009)
When the singer/songwriter movement boomed in the mid-1990s, Catie Curtis was at its core. A veteran artist with a 15 year career, Curtis has recorded nine solo albums and has toured with the Lilith Fair as well as Dar Williams and Mary Chapin Carpenter. Her songs have appeared in numerous television shows (Dawson's Creek, Felicity, Grey's Anatomy and Alias) and independent films (500 Miles to Graceland, A Slipping Down Life). And in 2009 she was honored to be selected to perform at the Obama inauguration in Washington D.C.
Over the years, Curtis' many fans have requested stripped down version of her classic songs, capturing the spirit and intimacy of her live shows. With Hello Stranger, Curtis achieves that career goal. The album, recorded in Nashville, features Curtis in the company of a select group of Nashville all-star pickers
including Stuart Duncan (fiddle, mandolin), Alison Brown (banjo), Todd Phillips (bass), George Marinelli (guitar/mandolin/dobro) and Kenny Malone (percussion) on re-workings of some fan favorites as well as a few choice covers. Guests Darrell Scott and Mary Gauthier dropped by for vocal appearances on several
cuts, and the resulting album is reminiscent of Steve Earle's Train A Comin' project in its intimacy, and shows a side of Curtis' musical persona never before captured on CD. Highlight tracks include the Curtis chestnut "My Dad's Yard", the title track "Hello Stranger" (featuring a duet with Mary Gauthier) and a cover
of the Cat Steven's Track Titles s classic "Tuesday's Dead."

Your support is helping Gulargambone to grow
The Royal Flying Doctor Service's "Guiding Rural Outback Wellbeing" (GROW) program encourages young Australians to live healthy lives by getting young people involved in the science and magic that goes into growing and producing the food we eat.
Gulargambone is a small town in the Western Plains of New South Wales, 382km north-west of Sydney and has a population of around 400 people. The GROW program was launched in the Gulargambone community in December last year.
Your support has brought students and the Gulargambone community together by encouraging the younger generation to set up sustainable food systems. Students at Gulargambone Central School have learned skills in Aquaculture, a way to farm aquatic organisms in both coastal and inland areas.
The group has learned how to use nutrient-dense water collected from containers used to farm Yabbies and Silver Perch to feed and water a vegetable garden.
Alcohol and Other Drugs community engagement officer Dave Honeysett says the program encourages students to look after their health as well as the health of the planet.
"As part of the project in Gulargambone, we utilised nutrient-filled water to grow native trees and plants along with fruit and vegetables which the students and local communities will enjoy."
The principal of Gulargambone Central School, Michael Spora, says the GROW program is a hands-on way for students to practice innovation and resilience. " Through GROW young people in our region are provided peer support, opportunities to connect with nature, a way to learn about food systems, and build a connection to the country."
A big thank you to everyone involved, and thank you to all of our supporters who make our programs possible.

Don't cry, Toby One of the recent trends on Tumblr, a popular blogging site for teens, includes posting pictures of crying Toby... Check out this story on ydr.com: https://www.ydr.com/story/news/local/blogs/teen-takeover/2012/07/11/the-amazing-spiderman/31726571/
YorkDailyRecord Published 3:05 p.m. ET July 11, 2012
One of the recent trends on Tumblr, a popular blogging site for teens, includes posting pictures of crying Toby McGuire, the actor who played Spiderman in the old franchise, alongside pictures of a giggly Andrew Garfield, the newer Spiderman. Regardless of the hilarity of McGuire's crying face, Garfield has quickly escalated to being considered the true Spiderman, with good reason.
Columbia Pictures and Laura Ziskin Productions released "The Amazing Spiderman" the day before Independence Day, and it attracted viewers both young and old, excited and skeptical, comic book fanatics and people looking for something to do. Director Marc Webb had to shift through a long list of possible actors for his Spiderman reboot, a list that included heart throbs such as Taylor Lautner and Zac Efron, but Webb ultimately decided upon Andrew Garfield, the guy who played Eduardo Saverin in highly acclaimed "The Social Network." As for Gwen Stacy, Spiderman's original girlfriend, Webb chose Emma Stone, famous for her roles in "Easy A" and "The Help."
The opening scene is young Peter Parker playing hide and seek with his mysterious father. Suddenly, Peter's father has disappear with his wife, so they drop Peter off with his uncle and aunt.
Peter grows up to be a lonely, bullied nerd who likes skateboarding in high school. He is often harassed by Flash, the school bully. Peter has a small reputation for his photography around school, one of the rare reasons why a girl would ever talk to him. Even before he attains any super hero powers, he tries to stop Flash from bullying a fellow student. This leads to Peter getting, unsurprisingly, a nice beating from Flash, but later, Gwen Stacy talks to Peter about his heroism. It just so happened that Peter had a bit of a creepy crush on Gwen, as she was his computer's desktop picture.
Peter stumbles upon his father's old briefcase in the basement of his aunt and uncle's home. As he rummages through the remnants of his father, he discovers a secretly hidden file containing mysterious algorithms. Further investigation leads him to Oscorp, where his father's previous science partner works, Dr. Curt Connors. Incidentally, Gwen Stacy was Dr. Connors's head intern at Oscorp.
Whilst snooping around various rooms at Oscorp, Peter manages to get ambushed with a bunch of falling spiders, one of those spiders later leaving a nasty spider bite on Peter's neck.
Peter's exploration of his past leads to worry his aunt and uncle, and at one point, Peter temporarily runs away after a nasty argument with his Uncle Ben. While looking for Peter, Uncle Ben is fatally shot when he tries to stop a robber from getting away.
Dr. Curt Connors has some issues with Oscorp, too. He keeps getting pestered to hurry along the process of figuring out how humans can grow back limbs. Dr. Connors is missing an arm himself, yet he cannot complete his research until he has a certain algorithm.
The very algorithm that Dr. Connors was desperately searching for was written down in the folder that Peter's father had left behind. Peter reveals the complicated math equation to an awed Dr. Connors and so began Dr. Connor's rushed research.
Meanwhile, Peter learns to deal with his new superpowers. He sews up a nice little suit for himself, invents a spider-web slinging device and he sets out to find the man who killed his uncle earlier in the movie. With his mask and spandex, Peter is witty and brave against the oblivious murderer of his uncle. The confrontation however, ends in an unhappy encounter with the police.
Not long after, Dr. Connors finally injects himself with a proposed serum that would allow him to grow back his arm. He wakes up to find that he does grow back a limb that somewhat resembles an arm. Unfortunately, he also becomes a cranky, giant lizard who apparently sets out on a to destroy things and turn everybody else into lizards.
Lucky Peter is soon invited to dinner with Gwen's family, and he has a quarrel with Gwen's father, captain of the NYPD. The police were looking to arrest Spiderman, and Peter comes to Spiderman's defense.
"I think he's trying to do something that the police can't," says an agitated Peter Parker to Captain Stacy.
Peter discovers that Dr. Connors is the Godzilla-like creature causing mayhem in his city, and he sets out to find a way to stop him.
"I have to stop him," says a shirtless Peter to now-girlfriend Gwen Stacy, "because I created him." He is referring, of course, to how it was him who gave Dr. Connors the algorithm that made all this possible.
Webb's choices in actors were brilliant. The script written by James Vanderbilt, Alvin Sargent and Steve Kloves had portrayed Spiderman to be a witty, sly hero, and Andrew Garfield played him perfectly. Though Garfield didn't look like an average nerd, he certainly demonstrated his brainiac abilities through his talent for sewing and inventing spider-web sling shots.
Garfield had even studied the movements of spiders to prepare for this role. He admitted to tearing up when he first put the Spiderman suit on; he was actually playing his childhood hero. In fact, after Garfield's audition for the role of Spiderman at the beginning of production, he sent a picture to the director of his childhood self wearing a Spiderman costume.
I certainly knew that Uncle Ben's death was coming up in the movie, but after seeing Garfield clutch his phone to listen to Uncle Ben's voicemail, I bawled anyway. Even the scene where Peter was trying to ask out Gwen was flawless; it had the perfect amount of awkward and cute that melted my heart.
Emma Stone had me actually liking Gwen Stacy's character. Gwen wasn't just a really attractive nerd who fell in love with a fellow nerd; she was a loving daughter, a quirky teenager and someone who saw the good in Peter Parker. Her story takes a significant part of the plotline, but I can't disclose too much. I am ecstatic, though, that she's not a damsel in distress either. She comes to Peter's rescue multiple times, and that makes her especially admirably awesome.

The credits include a "secret scene," something of a trend that Marvel is doing, as it happened in "The Avengers," too.
If you aren't on your way to see "The Amazing Spiderman" right now, there's something wrong with your life. Out of the many movies that Marvel has made, "The Amazing
Spiderman" is one of the few that deserves as much praise as it can get.

Critically injured mom says 'don't ever give up'


A new initiative has been launched to establish a stronger future for public libraries across England. Led by Libraries Connected and CILIP, the project will explore different options for how libraries could be funded, managed and delivered in the years ahead.
An initial scoping study is being backed by the Carnegie UK Trust – the foundation set up by the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie whose money built over 600 libraries in the UK and more than 2000 worldwide.
The study will gather the views of key stakeholders and will look at contrasting models for public library delivery internationally, including those found in Northern Ireland, Australia, USA, Holland and Finland. These countries all have a strong public library ethos but their services are delivered, managed and funded in different ways.
The results of the study will be available next year and will inform a funding bid for a major transformation programmme beginning summer 2019.
The need for public libraries has never been stronger; last year over 204m library visits were made in England. Libraries continue to have a hugely influential and positive effect on people's lives and their communities.
Libraries Connected is a membership organisation, representing heads of library services in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. We take a leading role in the development of public libraries through advocating for the power of libraries, sharing best practice and helping to shape the public library service now and in the future.
CILIP, the library and information association, is the leading voice for the information, knowledge management and library profession. Our goal is to put information and library skills and professional values at the heart of a democratic, equal and prosperous society. CILIP is a registered charity, no. 313014.
Carnegie UK Trust works to improve the lives and wellbeing of people throughout the UK and Ireland by changing minds through influencing policy and by changing lives through innovative practice and partnership work. The Carnegie UK Trust was established by Scots-American philanthropist Andrew Carnegie in 1913.


A new material that is set to transform lightweighting in automotive applications will be showcased at Fakuma.
SO.F.TER. is presenting Litepol, a new polyolefin compound reinforced with hollow glass microspheres developed with 3M's innovative filler technology with less than one-fifth the density of other mineral fillers such as talc or glass beads. The material has the same mechanical characteristics as polypropylene filled with 20 per cent talc but weighs approximately 30 per cent less and can be used in many interior components of cars such as the dashboard carrier, glove box interior, consoles and air ducts.
Depending on requirements, it is possible to balance the mechanical properties and the lightness of the material to obtain the desired end result. For example, for components that require a greater structural capability, a hybrid grade (10 per cent glass fibre and 20 per cent glass microspheres) is already available which offers very good mechanical properties, comparable to a 30 per cent glass fibre but with a weight saving of about 20 per cent.
Fiat Group has already included Litepol in its polypropylene material standards (FCA Material Standard 55246, approved as Polifor C8 HB/24).
"Now, with the revolutionary Litepol, SO.F.TER. can offer car manufacturers one of the most innovative and competitive tools on the market for reducing emissions," said Riccardo Meucci, Global Commercial Director.
"Our capabilities are not just about formulation and production, but also include the test and start up of the new material, which are very important phases. Moreover, we already see interesting developments for Litepol even outside of the automotive industry."
In recent years, SO.F.TER. has developed many innovative materials specifically for the automotive industry, such as natural fibre composites or rigid/soft bi-material systems (Dolphin and Smartouch 2K) for the production of a fully recyclable dashboard in a single processing step, according to the 'Total Dashboard' concept.
With Litepol in its portfolio, SO.F.TER. has earned its place as one of the most dynamic and innovative global manufacturers in the industry.

Q: How to handle this webelement? I have this situation. I am building a test framework in Selenium Webdriver,TestNG using Page Object design pattern.
I have following situation. I am not sure how do I handle this in my framework.
I have Webelement(text Box)  in web page whose position will change depending on certain condition. I have attached screenshot for better understanding.
I am trying to enter input to text box below "Qty(Target Qty)" field in the above screenshot.Actually its a table. But position of "Qty(Target Qty)" & text box below it change depending on some scenarios. See the below screenshot.

What is the best way to handle this using Page Object design pattern?
I thought of doing following.

*

*Put all the elements of table in a list.

*Iterate though list looking for "Qty(Target Qty)". When you get it enter the input in the below text box.

A: Since you haven't posted the HTML, I'm going to give a general idea in case they don't have a fixed ID.
Assuming, you might have a variable number of columns in between:

*

*Iterate through the Titles ('MPN', 'CPN', etc.) to find the position
of the title 'Qty(Target Qty)'. (Iterate through the row, and check
which <td> element has 'Qty(Target Qty)'. Don't forget to keep a
counter.)

*This will give you an idea of how many columns exist between 'MPN' and 'Qty(Target Qty)'.

*Now, assume there are 'n' columns in between. Iterate through the row (below the title), and go to the 'n'th element. If these are <td> tags, then go to the 'n'th <td> item in the 2nd <tr> and search for the input box.
Assuming the number of columns in between is always 2 or 3 (as seen in the screenshot), skip step 1 from above and directly just go to step 3.

A: Since you haven't posted the HTML of the page, it's hard to craft an answer that will work for you but there's a sample HTML table here that I wrote an XPath and some code for that should help as an example.
This method takes in the row and column labels and returns the text contained in the referenced cell.
public String getTextFromTable(String rowLabel, String columnLabel)
{
    return driver.findElement(By.xpath("//table/tbody/tr[count(//tr/th[.='" + columnLabel + "']/preceding::tr) - 1]/td[count(//th[.='"
            + rowLabel + "']/preceding-sibling::th)]")).getText();
}

You would call it like
getTextFromTable("Height", "Taipei 101");

This method is using count() to count the number of rows or columns before the desired label. It then uses that count as an index into the TR or TH collection to find the desired element.
Now in your case, you would write a method as part of the page object that contains the table. It would take two parameters, the column label ("Qty(Target Qty)") and the input String. It would use a method similar to the sample function above to find the column index and then find the INPUT and sendKeys() the input string.

← Hannah Arendt (film): A Personal Review
The Underwhelm of Academia →
"Hannah Arendt" – Why Now?
Posted on November 20, 2013 | 1 Comment
Okay, so here's the transcript of my talk from last night. I ad-libbed some stuff about questions from yesterday's blog post. I plan to rewrite it for publication, so any thoughts/suggestions/haikus would be appreciated.
Thank you, and thank you to everyone who worked together to put on this event: ASPECT, Religion and Culture, Political Science, and the professors here. Rather than try to do a critique of the film as a whole and somehow fit it all into the body of Arendt's work, I instead decided to bring out four key points from the film that stood out to me (which actually might be doable in ten minutes): Arendt's own Judaism, the status of Arab Jews, the position of the bureaucrat, and the funding for the film itself.
No outward signs of Judaism in her house:
Arendt was Jewish, but culturally so. She was a secular Jew, and her home showed it. There are none of the tchotchkes associated with Judaism on the shelves, no mezuzah on the door. Even in Jerusalem, she maintains her Western appearance and does not dress as traditionally as the other women she interacts with. Revisionism to make Arendt seem more "Jewish" may have done something for her character in the film, but the film pulled no punches, showing her as others perceived her and keeping her in this motif.
Arab Jews have no voice/presence in film:
Along with that attention to historical accuracy, Arendt's personal beliefs on types of Jews shows up obliquely in the film. Arendt is known for believing that German Judaism was the best Judaism, remarking that it was lucky for Eichmann to have three German Jewish judges in Israel, who she called the "best of German Jewry."[1] She stated to Karl Jaspers once that the Israeli police force "gives me the creeps, speaks only Hebrew, and looks Arabic."[2] (xvii). This, in comparison to her championing the rights of Arab Palestinians seems strange.[3] It is remarked upon in the film that she never quite forgave Germany for letting her down as a German, yet she is inseparable from Germany in culture. The film portrays this subtly; while she passes Arab Jews and Eastern European Jews in the streets of Jerusalem, she does not interact with them. All of her Jewish friends are German Jews and she argues with them from the point of view of German continental philosophy. The film did an excellent job keeping this reality in place, in spite of the fact that it makes Arendt look less than favorable to non-German Jews.
Bureaucrats:
The status of the bureaucrat comes up often in the film, as in Arendt's work, and has definite applicability to discussions of the modern Israeli state. Part of Arendt's arguments for the banality of evil are the bureaucratic persona of figures like Eichmann—dedicated pencil-pushers who just followed orders. I'll go out on a limb of controversiality here and say that these arguments are fascinating when one considers some of the more contentious policies of the Israeli government with regard to border control and settlements in the West Bank. Many of these policies, which Arendt herself cautioned against, could be seen as being able to be perpetuated by a banality within the bureaucracy of Israel. Groups like J Street represent American Jews against the policies of occupation in the West Bank and Gaza, and there are many op-ed writers within Israel who speak out often against Israeli treatment of Palestinians, yet these policies continue.
When Arendt criticizes Israel's right to even try Eichmann, her colleague Kurt Blumenfeld responds, "Be a little patient with us," implying that Israel is a new state bound to make some mistakes. But how long is too long to remain being patient? At what point does "Be a little patient with us" become a crutch for not having to take a closer look at divisive policies? If nothing else, this film spurs the audience toward reevaluating the current state of affairs in Israel through Arendt's lens.
Funding of the film:
I'd like to conclude with the funding and the making of the film. According to Heinrich Blücher, "History more than one man" was on trial during the Eichmann trial. It is with this point of view on history rather than individual that I do wonder why make this film? Why now? Two Jewish film funds, the Israel Film Fund (a 501c3 nonprofit) and The Jerusalem Film and Television Fund (under the auspices of the Jerusalem Development Authority, a joint venture between the Israeli Government and the Jerusalem Municipality), partially sponsored the film. But why? Why now? Was it to redeem Arendt's reputation amongst a new generation of Jews? Or was it to teach a new generation why Arendt's views were dangerous to the Israeli state?
I was left unclear by the film itself. While the audience is naturally pulled toward supporting Arendt, both through Barbara Sukowa's stunning performance and the weight of Arendt's words herself, the negative responses to her work in the film far outweigh the positives. Arendt's rousing defense of her work before the students and faculty of the New School at the end of the film leaves the audience thinking the film will have a positive dénouement, yet the mood is ruined by her dear friend and colleague Hans Jonas not being convinced and disowning her. The film ends as it began, Arendt alone in her apartment, listlessly smoking a cigarette, isolated with her thoughts.
Characters in the film talk about how Arendt is asking questions about things best laid to rest, but why? Simply because the questions make us uncomfortable? And what does it say that Israel funded a film that reopens all these questions? The good news is, we are asking these questions. By having a panel such as this, we're trying to find out how Arendt's work is still valuable today, and I would definitely argue that it is, indeed, valuable.

The film is not necessarily fully non-fiction. Hannah did not speak in defense
of the Eichman book in NY, as she was teaching in Chicago. In NY, she and
Hans were quite collegial.

From 2001-2007, Locus Economica founder and CEO Jean-Paul Gauthier was contracted by the World Bank, International Finance Corporation (IFC) to advise on utilizing the 2,500-hectare area around the Howard Air Force Base, located across the canal from Panama City. After acquiring the base in 1999 in accordance with the Torrijos-Carter Treaty, the government of Panama sought to use its new asset to stimulate sustainable economic activity, generate employment, diversify and strengthen Panama's economic base, make the country more competitive, and improve the investment climate.
As the Legal and Regulatory Component Leader, Jean-Paul helped draft the model SEZ law and regulations that turned the area into a Special Economic Zone and helped establish the regulatory authority, la Agencia Panamá Pacífico. Jean-Paul also conducted due-diligence for the transaction, which involved the privatization of $500 million in assets.
The SEZ regime Jean-Paul helped create features a streamlined regulatory framework, a modern administration that operates a "one-stop-shop" for businesses and residents, public-private-partnership operation, and new labor regulations that increase opportunities for Panamanians.
Today, Panamá Pacífic SEZ is reputedly the largest mixed-use development project in the world. It is managed by London & Regional Panama and includes 225 companies with on-site offices, including Caterpillar, 3M, Dell, Singapore Airlines, and various other companies involved in maritime, logistics, manufacturing companies and call centers. Roughly 7,500 people are employed in Panamá Pacífico and approximately 12,000 people are in the zone on any given day, including workers, residents, visitors, and school children attending the four on-site schools. Salaries have been up to 3 times higher than the national average.
London and Regional Panama has invested over $430 million, and the U.S. Green Building Council and the Clinton Climate Initiative named it one of 16 projects demonstrating "climate positive" urban growth strategies. The former airstrip is being used as an alternate to Tocumen International Airport in Panama City and rather than container vessels simply passing through the Canal, today they being filled there with products produced in Panama-Pacifico.
Panamá Pacífico is on course to become a major city center. Over the next 10 years, London & Regional plans to build 25,000 residential units and a shopping plaza in addition to the industrial, class A office, and residential units already on site. Over the course of its 40-year concession, London & Regional has committed to invest at least $705 million. By the end of the concession, the project is expected to have attracted billions in foreign direct investment and to have created 20,000 jobs.
Drafted the SEZ Law (Law No. 41 of 2004) and implementing regulations, with an eye to WTO and eventual FTAA consistency; worked with local counsel towards introduction of Bill before Legislative Assembly and passage through two first readings; Oversaw and controlled drafting of model environmental regulation; and initiated regulatory drafting work on Customs Regulation, Business Registration Regulation, and SEZ Authority Administrative Regulation.


Whether you're looking for your first e cigarette, or simply want to upgrade your current model, we have a range of complete e cig kits from top and trusted brands. Our kits range from simple e cigarette starter kits to more advanced kits such as sub ohm e cigarette kits.
E cigarette starter kits are ideal for those new to vaping. Many vapers use e cigarettes to help them wean off real tobacco cigarettes. Most e liquids contain nicotine to help satisfy cravings. Whilst the act of vaping helps replace the more tactile based habits formed from smoking tobacco cigarettes. While e cigarettes are an excellent way to help smokers quit, venturing into the world of vaping can be quite intimidating for newbies. While the vaping community is very friendly and most vapers will be happy to offer help and advice to newcomers, the main issue with new vapers, is that they don't know what they should be looking for.The vaping world is full of jargon and slang words used to refer to the new experiences and products that come with vaping. This is where starter kits come in. Starter kits are designed for new vapers, containing all the required components needed for them to begin vaping. For a fuss free start. The only difficult decision they will have to make will be choosing an e liquid flavour.
If you're an experienced vaper, looking to intensify the flavour of your vapes, get a stronger throat hit and make some huge fluffy clouds, then sub ohm vaping is certainly the way to get what you want. Sub Ohm vaping should only be carried out by vapers with a good understanding of ohms law. Sub ohm e cigarettes use a coil with a resistance of less than one ohm. The less resistance from the coil, the more electricity is allowed to pass through it, and the more electricity passing through the coil the hotter it will get. The reason it's important for vapers to understand ohms law, is because a certain level of risk is produced when sub ohm vaping. If you don't abuse your device, and use it safely and carefully, you shouldn't encounter any problems. Battery explosions usually occur when vapers try and modify their own devices, which can put too much strain on the battery and in turn be hazardous. We recommend always buying from a trusted retailer, using a device designed for sub ohm vaping, and always following the advice given with your device.

I discovered this tender international observance last year, through the Facebook page Prayers for Shane. Shane Michael Haley was diagnosed with anencephaly in April, 2014, a fatal condition. He was born October 10 and lived for four hours, held by his parents, loved for every moment of his short life.
Today, October 15, is International Pregnancy & Infant Loss Day. The Wave of Light on this day, is observed in remembrance and honor of all babies who did not survive pregnancy or died shortly after birth. A white candle is lit at 7:00 PM, in each time zone, and allowed to burn for an hour. In this way, a wave of light circles the earth.
I lit a white candle at 7:00, in memory of my first baby, Daniel, lost in miscarriage. And in memory of Shane and all those who have known the heartbreak of losing a child, including several members of my family. These spirit babies are still held in our hearts, loved, cherished, and never forgotten.
As I was preparing to light the candle, a strong breeze kicked up, ahead of a line of thunderstorms moving into the Joplin area. I made the decision to place the candle within a glass hurricane lantern, so the candle could remain on the front deck and not be blown out. The holder happened to have lighthouses etched into the glass. I lit the fall candles as well and turned off the porch light.
The white candle blazed brightly. Lightning forked from dark clouds to the ground and from cloud to cloud, surrounding the house. The wind blew, thunder rumbled and soon the rain was falling. The white candle flame wavered not, a beacon of light in the darkness, untouched by the storm swirling around it. It seemed so symbolic, that candle in the lighthouse lantern, so full of hope and promise. I love how that worked out this evening, how all is connected, and the story being told. Shine bright little light, just as those sweet souls continue to do. Shine bright.


You will find 12 cottages , 1 restaurant , 1 swimming pool, massage pavilion and a big tropical garden in the middle of rice fields.
Renting information Each cottage (2 persons) is around 2300 THB per night - about 50 Euro including free breakfast.
How to get there The resort is at 30 km from Chiang Mai in North Thailand.
By bus, take the direction for the hot springs, but stop at Mae-On at On-Klang village and you can walk from there. We can also pick you up at the airport.

Q: Force HTTPS in asp net core angular project I created a .net core project with the angular template. I want to use only https (or atleast redirect all http to https), but I can't figure out how to redirect the angular application to https when the initial request was http. I am hosting through Heroku with docker.
Https can be used when i specify https:// before my domain name.
SSL is setup automatically by Heroku.
I even tried using an interceptor where I check the header specified in the Heroku documentation and change the window.location.href to https but one it does not work and two it looks like a hack.

A: Make sure you have setup redirect and forwarded headers.
services.AddHttpsRedirection(options => { options.HttpsPort = 443; })

services.Configure<ForwardedHeadersOptions>(options =>
{
    options.ForwardedHeaders = ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedFor |
                                ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedProto;
    options.KnownNetworks.Clear();
    options.KnownProxies.Clear();
});

Taiyamo Denku - "No Industry Standard" (Album) - @TaiyamoDenku
The seasoned Milwaukee beat bruiser, Taiyamo Denku, makes his triumphant return to your headphones with the full length album, "No Industry Standard". Consisting of 16 tracks in total, Denku and Dcypha once again combine their musical powers to put forth an all around quality Hip Hop extravaganza. The pair continue to go against the grain of so called industry standards, funding the project out of their own pockets and completely independent. Keeping the entire album process in house allowed the duo to orchestrate some heavy features.
Fans of the Cypha Den Music imprint know very well that you can expect some impressive guests on their releases. We can find the lyricist bashing mics alongside the likes of Conway The Machine, Saukrates, Lil Kim, Chino XL, Royal Flush, J Hood, KRS One, and Benny the Butcher.
The names alone are enough reasoning for checking the album out. Don't think for a minute that Denku is the type of artist that bases his career off of features. The Wisco wordsmith has proven his skills time and time again, whether it be inside of a cypher or performing on a vast amount of stages. He sets up all his own tours and has taken his act all across the Midwest and East Coast. As with his skills, Taiyamo has an extensive back catalog both as a solo artist and holding his own among Hip Hop's most predominant acts.
"No Industry Standard" has seen 2 singles and 1 video released so far. The lead single, "Be Who You Are", finds Conway and Taiyamo candidly speaking about faking the funk from two different points of view. "Fabulous Life" features the R&B styling of The Genius with the Midwesterner and Lil Kim speaking about what a "Fabulous Life" consists off. "Stand Back" was produced by Psycho Les of The Beatnuts, this release received a salt and peppered visual from Wes Tank. More singles will be released from the album in the coming months along with a video for "Mr. Sunshine", featuring Saukrates.
Make sure to stay tuned for that but in the meantime, preview and purchase "No Industry Standard" on Bandcamp.
