Did Marilyn Manson v Justin Bieber Beef Even Happen? Rocker Lets Howard Stern Read Texts
"Bro, it's Bieber. What's up with that article?… if anything wasn't squared away with the T-shirts I'm so sorry"
Umberto Gonzalez | September 19, 2017 @ 3:20 PM
You know that t-shirt beef between Marilyn Manson and Justin Bieber? Well, according to texts the ghoulish-looking rocker shared with Howard Stern on Tuesday, it was never a beef at all.
Speaking on Stern's SiriusXM show, Manson said Bieber got in touch with him after he said publicly that Bieber was "kind of an asshole" for claiming to make him "relevant again" because the Biebs was photographed wearing a Manson t-shirt.
According to Stern on Tuesday, who read from Manson's phone, the "Sorry" crooner texted "The Beautiful People" rocker to address his gripe: "Bro, it's Bieber. What's up with that article? I thought we had a pretty pleasant interaction. Also, if anything wasn't squared away with the T-shirts I'm so sorry."
Bieber added (according to Stern's reading): "Anyway, regardless, it kind of stung seeing that if I came off as an asshole or was just an asshole I'm sorry."

Manson clarified: He wasn't irked over the t-shirt itself, but rather Bieber's claim that he made the rocker "relevant again." "It was just a cocky little thing to say," Manson told Stern.
Manson said he responded to Biebs: "We are cool. People just made that shirt stuff into a fake feud. Let's turn it upside-down and f— the press and do something together. It will be the best. And don't apologize, you weren't an asshole. They asked if you were and I sort of agreed. I wasn't out to get you."
Manson also said he promised Bieber not to "shit talk" about him on Stern's show, to which Bieber allegedly replied: "Well thanks, LOL."
12 Stars Banned From Other Countries, From Justin Bieber to Harrison Ford (Photos)
It's no secret that famous people do and say crazy things. While some celebrity behavior is laughed off, other times it leads to them being banned from entering certain countries. Here are 12 noteworthy folks who have been blacklisted from at least one country.
Justin Bieber (China)
Bieber's past instances of "bad behavior" got him barred from China in July 2017. The Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture wrote, "In order to maintain order in the Chinese market and purify the Chinese performance environment, it is not suitable to bring in badly behaved entertainers." Oops, sorry, Biebs.

Lady Gaga (China)
Bieber isn't the only singer to fall out of favor with the Chinese government. Lady Gaga was blacklisted in 2016 after meeting with the Dalai Lama. China reportedly purged Gaga's music from streaming services and placed her on a list of hostile foreign forces.

Chris Brown (U.K., Australia)
This hip-hop star's 2009 domestic violence conviction against then-girlfriend, Rihanna, got him banned from the U.K. in 2011 and from Australia in 2015. Today, Brown is reportedly still banned from both nations.

Martha Stewart (U.K.)
In 2008, the U.K. denied Stewart a visa after she faced four felony convictions related to insider trading of ImClone stocks.

Brad Pitt (China)
Tibet is a sensitive issue in China, and the government tends to condemn anyone who promotes sympathy toward the autonomous region or its leader, the Dalai Lama. Such was the case with Brad Pitt for his involvement in "Seven Years in Tibet."

Martin Scorsese (China)
China really doesn't mess around when it comes to Tibet. Because he directed "Kundun," a film that gives a "sympathetic account" of the life of the 14th Dalai Lama, Martin Scorsese received a lifelong ban from the country.
Miley Cyrus (China)
Miley's sin in China's eyes wasn't fraternizing with the Tibetan spiritual leader. In 2009, the "We Can't Stop" singer shared a photo of herself and friends squinting their eyes in a mocking gesture toward people of East Asian descent. That's not funny in any country.
Alec Baldwin (Philippines)
In 2009, the "SNL" staple joked with David Letterman about "getting a Filipino mail-order bride" after numerous failed relationships. With that comment, Baldwin also damaged his relationship with the Philippines. The country slapped him with a lifetime ban from entry.
Harrison Ford (China)
The "Star Wars" actor has been banned from China since the early 1990s. Ford has long been an advocate for Tibetan independence and has openly criticized the Chinese government for human rights violations in the region.
Beyoncé (Malaysia)
Even queens can be banned. Beyoncé postponed and eventually canceled a 2007 performance in Malaysia due to complaints from members of the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party that her wardrobe and dance routine were too provocative.
Akon (Sri Lanka)
Sri Lanka banned Akon and David Guetta over the music video for their song, "Sexy Chick," which caused violent protests in the nation's capital. The majority-Buddhist nation didn't like seeing scores of people drinking, partying and hooking up in front of a statue of the Buddha. Akon later apologized for the offense.

Tyler, the Creator (U.K.)
In 2015, then-home secretary Theresa May closed the U.K.'s doors to rapper Tyler, the Creator for the next three to five years over lyrics that the Home Office believed glamorized "violent physical abuse, rape and murder in graphic terms."

Located about 25 miles south of San Francisco, Half Moon Bay provides an ideal escape from city life. With beautiful and unspoiled nature, fantastic restaurants, and great people, this laid-back beach area offers a homey environment with a dash of adventure and a heavy dose of relaxation. Come on down and discover one of the Peninsula's many coastal gems.
With bay views, great service, and delicious food, Flavor (260 Capistrano Road) is the perfect place to start your morning in Half Moon Bay. Sit on the top floor to take in the beauty of the coastal morning, with rolling fog banks or the bright, piercing reflection of sunlight on the on the ways, and sink into Flavor's menu of American comfort classics.
The fluffy French toast with apricot, whipped cream, powdered sugar, and maple syrup is great for the sweet tooth in your group, while the corned beef hollandaise is a delicious, hearty option. There is also have an extensive list of morning drinks, for those desiring a little extra kick to their day trip.
After you've finished noshing, burn off that breakfast with a hike in the green, shrubby hills a couple miles north of the bay. Rancho Corral de Tierra, a 4,000-acre parcel recently added to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, is a beautiful reserve with something special for everyone.
Some trails lead up and over the summit of Mount Morano (or Mount Pacifica, depending on which locals you ask), offering a steep but worthwhile experience for the more intrepid hiker, while others crisscross the hills rising off of Highway One, presenting a mostly flat, leisurely stroll among chaparral and occasional wildflowers. The cool ocean water contributes to a thick fog that often blankets these hills, but make sure to bring sunscreen — the entire system of trails is completely exposed.
Afternoon refreshments: Half Moon Bay Brewing Co.
That sort of hustle is intrinsic to the brewery's experimental ethos. "We're always tweaking to find the best recipe" Todd says. That "tweaking" sometimes leads to some not-so-good formulas, but the good results fa are well worth any flubs, as evidenced by the brewery's offerings for the recent American Craft Brew Week, which included a beer that Todd and his associates dubbed "Papajuice." A barley wine aged in old whiskey barrels, it retains some of Dr. Brown's caramel notes, along with hints of coconut and light fruits, making it a perfect pairing for something heavy like red meat.
Though this current flight of special brews is due to run out soon, the set rotation has a few knockouts of its own. The "Not for Sale" saison, light and fruity with floral and spicy notes, is perfect for a refreshing summer day, and the IPA pairs well with a burger. Of course, the Bloody Mary is also popular — one of the bartenders reported that the five or so gallons they make daily are always gone by evening.
A tour of a beach town isn't complete without, you know, visiting the beach. And truly, there's nothing more fun than playing in the sand after building up a light buzz at the bar. Miramar Beach, a stretch of sea cliffs transitioning into a short strip of sand, is the perennial recommendation of the locals. It's also almost entirely theirs. Even on a weekend, there are few tourists in sight, and the few people that are there don't make much of a crowd.
A short drive down Highway One from the brewery, Miramar is the perfect place for some sunbathing, relaxing with a good book, taking a long contemplative walk, or tossing a Frisbee or football with friends. And if you're feeling worn out from all the day's activities, taking a nap is always a smart move, too.
"I've always been a big fan of cowboy films, and the cowboy code is something manifested in all we do," says Tom McGuirk, who co-owns Cowboy Fishing Co. (730 Main Street) with his brother Patrick. Indeed, the friendly, unassuming restaurant seems to embody the pillars of that code, especially "Take pride in your work" and "Talk less and say more." Perhaps those are two of the reasons that, despite a lack of marketing, the restaurant has become immensely popular with locals and passersby.
Not only is Cowboy Fishing inviting, it's the sort of place that keeps them coming back. Perhaps that's because "Top to bottom, everything is high quality" Tom says (after all, it's natural for a former Olympic hurdler and a San Jose SaberCats defensive back to only want the best). "Our goal is to do a few things and do them well." What that means here is a small and straightforward "Brews and Bites" menu, featuring local brews (a few of which are so local they're brewed onsite) and a seasonal menu driven by the "fresh catch" (which is usually caught, sustainably, by Tom).
During my visit I tried the fish tacos made with fresh cod, cilantro, lime, and a sprinkling of special sauce on corn tortillas — a delicious start to any meal. With its brown-sugar sauce, the ravioli (Tom's favorite dish) offers a tasty contrast between savory and sweet, and if you're feeling guilty about all this deliciousness, the kale salad with blueberries and vinaigrette will set your heart at ease.
The whole menu is locally sourced, with fish coming from Princeton Harbor, bread and desserts from a nearby bakery, beef from a local ranch, and even screen-printed T-shirts from a shop in town.

View Full Version : Uriah Heep live in Vegas. One ticket, $209.
Finch Platte
Lol. Well, it's actually 2 tickets. A plane ticket from Stockton to Vegas and back is $145. Ticket to see the band is $64. That's happening this Saturday, at the Green Valley Ranch Hotel, Las Vegas.
Man, if I had the spare coin this would be a no-brainer (lobbing a softball out to anyone wanting to swing at it). I've enjoyed their stuff for many years (sorta faded after Return To Fantasy), and now I'm really liking some of their new stuff. Has anyone heard this one?
http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drp900/p973/p97305u2ule.jpg
Uriah Heep play to their strengths on Into the Wild, the band's 22nd studio album in 41 years. Despite the group's reputation for personnel changes, its current members have mostly been in place for decades (drummer Russell Gilbrook joined in 2007), and they play like musicians who have been reading each other's minds on-stage during hundreds of shows a year for many years; the disc is full of cohesive musical teamwork, creating a unified sound. Like many long-lived outfits, Uriah Heep created a classic sound (the goth/prog style of the early '70s), then spent an extended period (mostly the '80s) modifying that sound to try to conform to contemporary styles, after which (starting with 1995's Sea of Light), they fell back on trying to re-create their golden era. The group is, in a sense, a tribute band to itself, and while it has worked steadily, it has recorded less frequently; Into the Wild's predecessor, Wake the Sleeper (2008), was the first new Uriah Heep studio album in nine years. Like Wake the Sleeper, Into the Wild sounds like an album that could have been made in the 1970s. From the outset with "Nail on the Head," the hard rock style is reminiscent of Led Zeppelin and, particularly, Bad Company, with singer Bernie Shaw often recalling Paul Rodgers. On songs like "Money Talk," which prominently feature Phil Lanzon's organ, Deep Purple is heavily suggested. The songs, mostly written by Lanzon with sole original member and guitarist Mick Box, have sturdy structures all the better for filling with soaring guitar solos and lyrics that, notably on the power ballad "Trail of Diamonds," can lean toward the mystical. There may be no new Uriah Heep classics here, but there are songs that can be slotted in the set list among the group's classics without sending fans rushing to the concession stands. Uriah Heep don't really need to make new albums anymore, but it's understandable that, as an ongoing outfit, they want to, and Into the Wild is a respectable addition to their catalog.
Anyhoo, I'm just bored, so I thought I'd throw out yet another post to be ignored in this musical wasteland of a board. :17:

In my earlier life, I was a roadie (SHOWCO Sound, Dallas, Texas).
I did a number of shows with the Heep.............................................D avid Byron was one of the biggest a$$holes you will ever meet.

Hey, I'm 55 years old, and it beats the fock out of the work I'm doing.
What does that have to do with the band today? Byron is dead, in case you didn't know.
I think you sent me this a while back. I really dig it & play it "from time to time." :thumbsup:
Edit: In case you didn't get it.
Once I loved a pretty woman till one day she up and ran
S'pose I should have felt it coming
But it's hard to think of her with another man
Oh my lady I need you
Though from time to time I don't seem to
Once the sun shone in my garden
Till my love took off and left me with the rain
Now my heart and I are starting
To forget it all and start out again
My heart is hurting bad
And all the trees look so sad
And all the love we could have had
Oo from time to time
Byron is dead, in case you didn't know.
Died from a$$holemialgia.
Sounds painful!

Stable isotope chemistry of marine mollusks and paleoceanography of the Bering Strait region during the last interglaciation
Khim, B.K.
Khim, B.K., 1996, Stable isotope chemistry of marine mollusks and paleoceanography of the Bering Strait region during the last interglaciation: Newark, Deleware, University of Delaware, Ph.D. dissertation, 167 p.
In this dissertation study, marine climate of the modern Bering-Chukchi sea system is compared with that of the last interglaciation. Interpretations are derived from detailed profiles of the stable oxygen and carbon isotopic composition of recent and fossil mollusk shells. The isotope profiles of live-collected mollusks are correlated directly with properties of each of the principal water masses in which they grew. This modern calibration is used to interpret paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic conditions in the Bering Strait region during the last interglaciation from fossil mollusks. The [delta] 18O and [delta] 13C profiles of mollusks collected from the Bering and Chukchi shelves show cyclicity related to seasonal processes. Seasonal temperature variations control the amplitude of the [delta] 18O profiles with a secondary effect from changes in salinity and seawater [delta] 18O. The [delta] 13C profiles show the effects of seasonal phytoplankton productivity and benthic respiration on the dissolved inorganic carbon reservoir. Relationships among sites in cross plots of the paired [delta] 18O and [delta] 13C values from the shell profiles reflect differences between water masses and the regional distribution of carbon cycling. Fossil mollusks were collected from the last interglacial marine deposits, known as the Pelukian Transgression, across the Bering Strait region: the Nome Coastal Plain, Arctic Coastal Plain, St. Lawrence Island, and Val'katlen, Russia. The isotope profiles show paleotemperatures of seawater as warm or warmer than the modern with increased seasonality. Enhanced seasonal paleotemperature might reflect the absence of seasonal sea-ice formation at that time. These results support the idea that a warmer-than-present paleoclimate during the last interglaciation was associated with enhanced transport of seawater and heat into the Arctic Ocean through the Bering Strait.


"The fires have burnt at least 24,000 hectares (59,000 acres) of land on the islands of Gran Canaria and Tenerife.
Spain's Environment Minister Cristina Narbona called a state of "maximum alert" and ordered more water-bombing planes to help douse the fires. Hundreds of firefighters are working with planes to quell the blaze. On Saturday, police arrested a forest ranger who admitted to starting one of the fires. The 37-year-old man told police his job contract was about to expire and he wanted to keep working, according to the AP news agency.
Local officials said that 5,200 people had been taken to safety on Gran Canaria and at least 5,700 people were evacuated from homes in Tenerife as the four-day blaze continued to burn.
Hazards Previously, dozens of people had been evacuated from seven areas since Friday. Paulino Rivero, head of the regional government said: "The rugged landscape of these islands makes firefighting very complicated, except from the air. "But while there is a lot of wind and very high temperatures, helicopters generally cannot operate." A spokesman for Gran Canaria's authorities said fires were burning on four fronts but attention was being focused on two in the central Fataga area. He added that only two helicopters were able to drop water there because of the "terrible" wind. The fire has damaged 65% of the Palmitos bird sanctuary park. There are fears that toucans and other exotic birds may have been killed. A spokeswoman from Tenerife's island authorities said some 300 members of fire and other emergency services were fighting the blazes, with the support of 34 lorries, four helicopters and a water-bomber airplane.


When King Richard II banishes two feuding noblemen from England, he sets into motion a series of events that will eventually cost him his crown and his life. Mishandling several issues that enrage the nobility, King Richard II brings the wrath of Henry Bolingbroke, the future King Henry IV, down upon his throne. Richard II is the first of four connected plays about successive British monarchs, and is followed by Henry IV, Part I, Henry IV, Part II, and Henry V.Known as "The Bard of Avon," William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare's works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare's innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech.HarperPerennial Classics brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.

And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation, and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth." Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!" ...

From the ground to above the entrance cherubim and palm trees were carved, as well as on the wall of the nave. The doorposts of the nave were square; as for the front of the sanctuary, the appearance of one doorpost was like that of the other. The altar was of wood, three cubits high and its length two cubits; its corners, its base and its sides were of wood And he said to me, "This is the table that is before the LORD." The nave and the sanctuary each had a double door. Each of the doors had two leaves, two swinging leaves; two leaves for one door and two leaves for the other. Also there were carved on them, on the doors of the nave, cherubim and palm trees like those carved on the walls; and there was a threshold of wood on the front of the porch outside.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. ...
And King Solomon sent and brought Hiram from Tyre. He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze. And he was full of wisdom, understanding, and skill for making any work in bronze. He came to King Solomon and did all his work. He cast two pillars of bronze. Eighteen cubits was the height of one pillar, and a line of twelve cubits measured its circumference. It was hollow, and its thickness was four fingers. The second pillar was the same.

Jacob lived in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan. These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was pasturing the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought a bad report of them to their father. Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other of his sons, because he was the son of his old age. And he made him a robe of many colors. But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him and could not speak peacefully to him. Now Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers they hated him even more. ... Christian Canvas Art
David built houses for himself in the city of David. And he prepared a place for the ark of God and pitched a tent for it. Then David said that no one but the Levites may carry the ark of God, for the Lord had chosen them to carry the ark of the Lord and to minister to him forever. And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem to bring up the ark of the Lord to its place, which he had prepared for it. And David gathered together the sons of Aaron and the Levites: of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, with 120 of his brothers; ... Bible Scripture Art

An unprecedented economic, political, and social crisis has been striking Lebanon and was amplified by a double explosion on August 4th, 2020 in Beirut, which caused 190 deaths, more than 6 500 casualties, and destroyed entire neighbourhoods.
The Saint Joseph Brothers School, founded in 1966, is located in the Achrafieh neighbourhood and welcomes 300 pupils of different nationalities and faith, from preschool to high school. The explosion directly affected this school which as a result is unable to welcome its students back.
This school operates on tuition fees paid by families according to their income and does not receive subsidies from the State or associations. Due to the economic crisis, nearly 90% of families are unable to pay their children's school fees. Even though teachers could not be paid for a year, they still gave their lessons out of fear of seeing the school get closed by the authorities.
After meeting the school's team, Les Amis du Liban, Monaco Aide et Présence and AMADE, already mobilised through Les Amis du Liban's emergency call in the wake of the explosion, decided to go further and support the Saint Joseph Brothers School to allow children from low income families, who have been severely impacted by the crisis, to find their way back to school.
Completed activities
Renovation works include repairs of the roof, windows, and doors, painting of the premises, maintenance of the power system and replacement of desks, boards, and lockers.
Tuition fees for the most vulnerable children include teachers' wages, school supplies, uniforms, and other charges. A school transport system facilitates transportation for children whose families have lost their vehicles in the explosion or were forced to move due to the destruction of their home.
This partnership also includes a reinforcement of the school's team and of its educational provision in order to guarantee excellence in learning through a technical assistance provided by the Lebanese association Paradis d'Enfants. Paradis d'Enfants has a 22-year of experience in the education sector with 2,000 students enrolled in 3 schools.
Welcoming and learning conditions of Saint Joseph Brothers School's students are improved.
Vulnerable children are schooled and benefit from quality education.
