Bred into the military life, I have grown accustomed to moving every few years, so new beginnings are anything but foreign to me. Although, it is something I thought I had put to rest in my life. That is, until recently.
I am officially a college graduate and the proud owner of a Bachelor's of Music. When I began this journey four and a half years ago, I fully intended to settle and start my life in Southern California. I loved the area and the people in my life, and I looked forward to the opportunity of keeping them as I never have before. But, of course, life changes, and you're left with the options of changing with it or fighting it and being miserable. So, I find myself having to move home which just so happens to be on the other side of the country.
My parents moved to South Carolina the same year I started college in California, so I've really only spent summers and Christmases there. But, being part of a nomadic family, I am used to calling unfamiliar surroundings "home." Military families give meaning to the phrase "home is where the heart is." As long as there's family, there's home.
The way I see it, I can treat this as any other move. I'll worry about what I'm leaving behind, I'll worry about making friends, worry about a new school (fingers crossed for that grad school application), and I can lean on my family for support. While these are all true, there is still something distinctly different this time around.
Maybe it has to do with my mindset in moving to California in the first place. I didn't expect to have to move again. The voice of my high school guidance counselor rings clear in my mind saying, "Failing to plan is planning to fail." It still amazes me how applicable that is in so many situations.
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a planner. I like to know what's going on when, where, and why. Even if I have nothing to do for the weekend, I have plans to do nothing. However, that also means that I often plan not doing things as often as I plan to do something. If there's something I don't want to do, I will figure out a way to make sure it is no longer an option. Four and a half years ago, that was not moving back home.
As much as I love my parents and my whole family, I liked being on my own and I liked being in California. It never crossed my mind that I might have to head back east, because I didn't want it to. In the end, I think that has made this move one of the hardest yet, and let me tell you, very few of them have been easy.
There are two ways you can look at new things: You can take them head on, accepting the challenge, excited for growth, and unexpected opportunities. Or, you can walk reluctantly backwards into them, staring back at everything you have to leave behind and will miss. Now, I'm not saying forget about what's behind you. You should always remember where you came from and who got you to where you are. Keep significant friendships, please! It causes much more heartbreak for everyone involved when you try to distance yourself, believe me.
For me, I will look at my group of friends here and know how much I'll miss our random hang-outs of not actually watching the show we intended to and instead deciding to talk over it. I'll miss my apartment, my own apartment. I'll probably even miss school a little bit. But I'm also excited to spend time with my parents again, in the flesh, and not just on Skype. I'll get to spend holidays with the extended family that was missing during my childhood. I won't worry yet about having financial stability or what I want to do with my life (well, I will, but not to the same degree). I'm excited for the security and comfort that comes with simply being home.
I suppose the take-away is value what you have, but also look forward to what you can get. Starting over is usually not easy, even for those with plenty experience, but you never know what good can come of it until it happens.


In the endless quest for perfection combined with each production facility's own unique situation, what needs tweaking at your studio will evolve. As my own skill-sets grow, my perception of what needs changing grows as well. I find my eye for issues has expanded beyond my broadcast engineering roots and spread into management and editorial concerns, as well.
Because we produce so many videos and my work is my passion, I require a comfortable zone of work for me (and our crew). I believe that a comfortable workplace where one can focus and be creative, as compared to a dull, inconvenient and uncomfortable place that makes you feel unwelcome, is the more productive work-space. After some hours of work in our old space, every moment of deliberation seemed like an eternity; I could feel my consciousness ebbing away. I needed a new and ergonomically functional look in my control room.
A tired room and a tired layout adds time to your work, certainly sapping creativity and drive. Getting buried in hum-drum routine dulls perception, making the problems harder to spot. We've found our issue – now let's deal with it.
When i s furniture more than just furniture? When it's part of a larger issue. What better place to look for a solution to my situation than the NAB Show?!?! That being said good ideas have a tendency to echo, so any good solution will have a viable number of providers (or imitators if you want to get picky). I examined several potential solutions until I found the one I would use (cue the trumpets).
I went over to the TBC Consoles booth and their products were both fantastic and stunning. I knew that I just had to have a TBC Console and it felt like Love at First Sight, but first I thought to collect a bit of information and a few details about TBC. I found a comprehensive and very informative website and it begged me to explore. From dozens of finishes to the gallery of examples, I was quite impressed! I quickly found that hardware, for example, numerous robotic cameras, video switchers and more could be tapped into a focal spot where the console permitted you to run everything from a single position! These guys actually think about those things! Awesome!
After examining several manufacturers, I settled on TBC Consoles as the company that would help me implement our solution. No doubt, with more production procedures being moved towards the software domain, it's very easy not to remember how much of our production that takes place in the master control facilities where hardware is supreme. Makers of furniture are continually developing products that intensify our coactions with hardware, thereby improving both ergonomics and productivity. TBC, makers of IntelliTrac and SmartTrac studio console desks have actually made it possible for you to have whatever you need with regards to the perfect production desk right in front of you. With TBC's IntelliTrac and SmartTrac consoles, you literally have your entire studio at your desk! In this review, you are going to learn why the IntelliTrac or SmartTrac consoles will become an amazing part of your workflow.
The IntelliTrac furniture features an exceptional off the floor design that allows for enough leg room while maximizing ventilation via the body of the console. Both front as well as rear device "Tracs" allow for limitless sideways positioning of crucial monitors. The turrets of the rack bay can easily be relocated which allows for fast, user-friendly modifications. There is also a complete range of integrating arms for good distance and height. Also, tilt control can be made use of, for backing flat panel monitors, phones, task lighting and speakers.
During the design phase, Andrew at TBC showed us this drawing which would demonstrate what our "position" would be while sitting at the desk. I never thought about this, but they certainly do! Pretty cool!
With IntelliTrac console, you get Trac-mounted; Task Light, Halogen, Task Light, LED, Phone platform, Monitor arm, Monitor arm, adjustable cable collar and bottom closure panel as well as 3′ / 16-outlet 15a power strip and 6′ / 20-outlet 15a power strip.
Paired with our IntelliTrac Console is the TracWall – a modular wall-mounted mount that, at broadcast Beat studios, holds all of our monitors behind the console! (You can see a photo of me standing in front of the TracWall as we were putting it together – it's the featured picture to this article!) The TracWall framework is mounted to the wall, allowing the monitor brackets to be fastened to it; this allows total versatility in the selection of monitors to be used – especially in the ease of replacing a monitor when necessary (either because it is in need of repair or upgrade).
SmartTrac console systems showcases rear device "Trac", removable turrets and cable core which have an optional height adaptability for any application that needs a "sit-stand desk". More so, each of the console can be made to specific personal preferences with a range of monitor arms, speaker mounts, CPU holders, task lamps as well as other needed accessories.
Monitor Trac on the back of the top allows horizontal adjustment of your LCD monitors, speaker stands, etc.
Software makes it possible but TBC makes it convenient. TBC Consoles is all about customer satisfaction and ergonomic workflow. While designing our console, our Sales Engineer Andrew went over ALL the details. There were features I never dreamed would be options in a production console. Every question Andrew asked made me realize how experienced TBC really is. Even the packing material it arrived in was top notch, a solid packing job for our sturdily constructed top notch console.
Built-to-Order: No console is the same.
Comes with a manual! You read that right! I received a manual specific to our console and it was personalized!
Excellent website to help during the design process.
Friendly staff that isn't afraid to talk about additional changes.
Finishes, finishes and more finishes. Gorgeous!
Modular: Everything is interchangeable during design or after the console is finished.
Quick assembly – Believe it or not, our massive console was put together by two people in under four hours.
Hands down, TBC was a great company to work with and everything from the design process, to picking finishes went so smooth. We ended u with a TBC IntelliTrac (the console) and the TBC TracWall (which holds all of our displays against our wall). If you're looking for a top-notch linear-editing console, control room console or any studio furniture in that matter – TBC Consoles is the way to go. Their attention to detail is certainly unparalleled and I was absolutely blown away by their staff.
Take a peek at my other story showing the full process of putting the console together! Click Here.

OneVoice Statement on Recent Violence
The OneVoice Movement wholeheartedly condemns the latest round of violence in Israel-Palestine. As the situation worsens, we call on regional leaders to cast aside vicious rhetoric, to cease the use of excessive force, and to do all they can to avoid further escalation.
Like so many of these calamities, what's unfolding was preventable. Unfortunately, the specter of unjust evictions in Sheikh Jarrah begot Israeli settler attacks on Palestinians, incendiary balloons and rockets from Gaza, Palestinian attacks on Jewish Israelis, and a disproportionate response from Israeli military and police. Now, hundreds are injured, Israelis and Palestinians alike are sheltering from aerial assaults, and civilians—including children—have lost their lives.
Today and always, we must fight back against extremism wherever we see it. Fringe voices are trying to capitalize on this moment to further inflame tensions. We cannot let that happen.
Instead, we must champion the moderate majorities in each society. In the days and weeks ahead, OneVoice will do so by redoubling our efforts to amplify the voices of a diverse slate of activists through our podcast, social media channels, and beyond. These changemakers and peacebuilders are the ones we must listen to in this precarious time. And, ultimately, when the conditions exist to end this conflict, they will be the ones leading the way.
Our thoughts are with those who are grieving. May the victims of today's violence rest in peace; may their loved ones find peace and comfort in their memories; and may we all remain committed to ending this conflict and needless suffering.
Unity Campaign
On August 17, 2014, OneVoice Palestine launched its "Unity Campaign," calling for an immediate end to violence and asking Palestinians to…

So I am trying to pick up my violin again after years of neglect and learning to read sheet music. Look at examples of the the same music, one for piano and one for violin, the notes even on the treble clef are different. The piano seems to be set one note lower, just comparing note for note. Is this usually the case?
I have sheet music explicitly for my violin, but looking at sheet music for piano, I started playing and hitting the same notes. It didn't seem right, and then I compared it with the sheet music for the violin and noticed the difference. Am I imagining things?
Example violin sheet music for same song.
Notice the first note is a G on the violin, but an F on the piano?
The two arrangements of the hymn are in different keys - one in B flat, the other in C.
The two different arrangements, presumably made by different people, were never intended to be used together.
If you set the drop-down "Instrument/Format" menu on the hymnary.org site to "violin", you will see an arrangement (for three violins, not one!) that is in the same key of B flat.
It is quite common for vocal music to be printed in different keys, because different singers' voices have different ranges. In hymn books, you sometimes find the same tune used for different hymns but printed in different keys, so that musicians who can't transpose "at sight" can choose which key they want to use.
The two different scores are in two different keys.
The "piano" score is actually for SATB chorus/choir, and is notated in the key of Bb major most likely because it is more comfortable for most singers and/or the original version of it was written in that key.
The violin score is written in C major, probably because it's an easy key to read, write, play, and transpose from.
An excellent exercise for learning more about music would be to transcribe the violin part a whole step down (into the key of Bb major) to match the piano. And/or you could practice transposing on the fly, playing the violin part a whole step lower than written.

TOKYO — The head of Tokyo's city government has declined to weigh in on the future of Japanese Olympic Committee President Tsunekazu Takeda, who is being investigated for his part in an alleged bribery scandal.
The strategy of the organizers of these "Tours" participate fully to the Japanese government aim, without realizing it, to make believe that the "radioactivity" there is not dangerous. Oh, there, what a world.
"There is growing interest among foreign tourists for a tour in English to former evacuation zones in the northeastern Japan prefecture of Fukushima where a devastating earthquake and tsunami in March 2011 triggered a nuclear disaster.
"More people are becoming interested in going on the tour that can deepen their knowledge," explains an official at the Japan National Tourism Organization.
The tourism company Knot World Co. based in Tokyo designed this particular tour from a desire to encourage more people to "hear the local voices and see the area's damage and recovery" after the nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant.
Since the tour's launch in February last year, some 200 people from 23 countries have participated, according to the company.
Fukushima Prefecture says 96,000 foreign tourists stayed at hotels and inns in the prefecture in 2017, which is four times the number in 2011. In February this year, an organization that promotes the prefecture's products and tourism launched a three-day tour with English translation in areas including Naraha, another town in the vicinity of the crippled nuclear plant, to aid recovery.
However, there are numerous issues that need to be resolved regarding tours catering to foreigners such as training tour guides and providing information in various languages.


Thinking about moving cross-country to start a new beginning, adapt to financial hardships or even consolidate credit card debt, a personal loan can help cover your expenses without breaking the bank.
When a personal loan is unsecured it means that the lenders do not require collateral in return for the money. The collateral can be anything from your house to your car. Loan amounts range from $1,000 to more than $50,000 and are paid back in fixed payments. Personal loans are typically paid back over two to five years, all rates and terms vary from each user based on your credit.
As we all know, a strong and high credit score gives you a better chance of qualifying for a personal loan at a much lower interest rate than others. You can determine your creditworthiness by checking your free credit score on many websites like Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, some banks offer it to their customers as well.
How is yours looking? The goal is to build it up before you apply for a personal loan. There are two big factors that affect your credit the most, one being that payments are made on time and the second one is the amount of credit you use relative to the credit limits.
Pre-qualifying for a personal loan can give you a little insight at the offers that might be pitched in your direction. There are quite a few vendors that might perform a soft credit check during the process but that won't affect your credit score, it is solely for your benefit.
Shopping around for a personal loan can get a little tedious because you want the best rates possible.
With the pre-qualification process done on Squeeze.com, you can get estimated rates in as little as 5 minutes. We have 10+ trusted online lenders waiting to fund you.
With good credit, searching for the best credit card that has 0% interest on purchases for a year or more can be quite simple. If you can repay the loan in that timeframe, then the credit card option is the cheapest way to go.
If your credit isn't the best it can be then the interest might be better and lower with a secured loan. A secured loan needs something in exchange for the money, collateral. It can be a car, a home you own or even a savings account.
An option for those who don't qualify for a loan on their own can get a co-signed personal loan. The lender will consider the credit history of both along with the income in order to qualify and approve the loan. The terms might be worked in your favor.
Most online lenders do not charge a fee for paying off your fee ahead of time.
Will my monthly payment be automatically withdrawals?
Some lenders require a checking account to be set up for automatic payment withdrawals. If this is the case, consider setting up a low balance alert via text message or email to avoid any overdraft fees.
Will there be any fees not clearly displayed?
No, everything should be disclosed. Make sure to double check the cost of your loan, including all the origination fees. It should be displayed and figured into your annual percentage rate (APR).
What are some customer-friendly features?
It is beneficial to your credit score if the lender reports your on-time payments to credit reporting agencies.
It is always nice to be able to have your due dates work around your financial needs, some lenders will let you choose your date. Also, some may offer occasional late forgiveness or in other cases, skip a payment.
Some lenders will offer to send borrowed funds directly to creditors they owe money to. This is especially beneficial for those borrowers who are consolidating their debt.
Do I need to give them identification?
Answer is yes, they will need a passport, driver's license, state ID or your Social Security card.
If they ask for verification of my address, what do I bring?
Utility bill or a phone bill is sufficed, even a copy of your lease.
Will they ask for proof of income?
Yup, they will. The lender just needs to confirm that all the information that was provided in the pre-qualifying process is correct. A W-2 or a pay stub would work to show proof on income.
After this information is given, the lender will run a hard credit check that will knock a few points off your credit score – nothing major. Upon final approval, depending on the lender and the terms that were agreed on the funds should be received within a week.
Finding the best personal loan is difficult but Squeeze facilitates the process and cuts down the time it takes shopping around. We help you find the lowest rates possible.


Tornos News — Most fronts of the devastating wildfire that burned across the island of Chios were partially under control on Tuesday morning. Residents and authorities, however, fear a rekindling of the blaze due to strong winds.
So far nearly 90% of the mastic-trees have been incinerated in the villages of Lithi, Elata and Mesta. Images from NASA illustrated the extent of the fire as smoke could be seen reaching the island of Crete. Firefighters and citizens on the island, which was declared in a state of emergency by authorities, were battling to contain the spread of the flames throughout the night. According to the latest information, the fire started from power cables in the area.
Four planes and four helicopters are currently involved in the operations, while 38 firefighters, 16 vehicles, 11 land units, 40 volunteers, 21 water trucks and 2 earthmoving vehicles are contributing to efforts to contain the fire. According to a local news site 'politicos.gr', the fore started at between the villages of Vessa dn Lithi and quickly spread to the southwest of the island. Speaking to protothema.gr, Chios mayor Emmanuel Vrounous said it was difficult to say the wildfire had been put under control, adding that the village of Elata had ben evacuated. 'It all depends on the wind', he said.
Meanwhile, Agricultural Development and Food Minister, Vangelis Apostolou is expected to go to Chios to assess the situation and visit the farming areas hit by the fire.


Why a string of lawsuits is undermining women's confidence.
May 8, 2000 -- "I'm not blaming someone for losing the baby. I know bad things happen that are nobody's fault," says Linda, a 39-year-old mother of two. "But I am devastated over being told that I can't have another, and that is somebody's fault."
Linda's baby died during pregnancy, a tragic ending to the anticipation of welcoming a new child. But a year's worth of complications from a procedure to remove the expired fetus resulted in a hysterectomy, and therefore the loss of her fertility.
After long nights of anguish shared with her husband, the couple reluctantly decided last January to file a lawsuit against the medical team that handled her pregnancy; sadly, the defendants include the doctor who had delivered her two previous babies and in whom she had placed "tremendous trust and confidence."
Suing a trusted doctor is a nightmare for patients already suffering deeply when something goes wrong in childbirth. Yet the inherent risks to a newborn's health or to a woman's fertility have, over the years, made obstetrician-gynecologists (ob-gyns) the doctors who are most vulnerable to lawsuits, causing an exodus from the specialty in the 1980s. Now the latest survey from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) shows that once again doctors are being driven from the practice of obstetrics by the high costs of delivering high-risk care.
"Nature is not uniformly kind," says Albert L. Strunk, MD, JD, a former ob-gyn and trial lawyer, who is now vice president for fellowship activities at ACOG. "Six percent of all births involve birth defects; 3% involve a major birth defect. That's a figure that applies year after year, regardless of extenuating circumstances."
Yet since the 1980s, the number of lawsuits and claims against ob-gyns has been greatly disproportionate to their numbers in the medical profession. An August 1999 report by the Risk Management Foundation of the Harvard Medical Institutions found that although ob-gyns made up only 5% of physicians covered under their insurance plan, they generated 14% of all claims and accounted for 23% of the plan's losses.
"Any time a parent doesn't have a perfect child, they want compensation," says Michelle A. Bourque, JD, a New Orleans-based defense lawyer with the American Bar Association. The heavy emotional impact of damage to a woman's reproductive capabilities, as in Linda's case, also increases the likelihood that a woman will sue. ACOG's survey, to which 1,428 ob-gyns responded, showed that 76.5% had been sued at least once in their careers, up from 73% in 1996. And most ob-gyns are sued more than once. "Ob-gyns can expect an average of 2.53 medical malpractice lawsuits to be filed against them during their careers," says the ACOG survey, released in January, a figure that has also risen since 1996, up from 2.31.
"It's widely acknowledged that ob-gyns, along with neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons, are sued more frequently because of their high-risk clientele," says Bourque. "Ob-gyns are especially susceptible because of the intense emotional significance of birth."
In addition to being sued more frequently, ob-gyns pay the highest claims. In a 1998 report summarizing 13 years of data, the Physician Insurers Association of America, a Rockville, Md., trade association, found that 26% of claims resulted in judgments of $250,000 or more. Such high payouts inevitably drive up the cost of medical malpractice insurance. The national average for ob-gyns' annual premiums, according to Strunk, is $30,000, although in some areas it can reach a staggering $140,000. In comparison, premiums for internal medicine physicians can range from $3,782 in Arkansas to $28,548 in New York's Nassau and Suffolk counties, according to the monthly newsletter Medical Liability Monitor.
Ob-gyns first began leaving their profession in significant numbers in the 70s and 80s, when liability insurance became either unavailable or unaffordable. Today, the pressures on doctors who perform obstetrical care are somewhat different. Decreasing reimbursements from HMOs, added to high malpractice premiums, have raised the cost of providing care so high that many doctors feel they can no longer afford to practice.
"We're in a crisis situation," says Susan Wilson, MD, a San Francisco ob-gyn, who recently restricted her practice to gynecology. "HMO reimbursements are so low that they don't cover the cost of providing care. Sometimes what the insurance provider will pay for a treatment, like a shot of Rhogam, doesn't cover the cost of the drug and the equipment. So what do you do? Do you pay for it yourself? Do you not provide the care?"
Other doctors feel they pay as high a cost psychologically as monetarily for delivering high-risk obstetrical care. "The amount of anxiety and the number of nightmares and sleepless nights caused by lawsuits is the worst," says one retired ob-gyn who wishes to remain anonymous. He left his private practice after 35 years when he realized that he was working three months of the year solely to cover the cost of his $60,000 malpractice insurance premium.
"I'm not paid a penny more for high-risk cases," says Laurie Green, a San Francisco ob-gyn. And "because of the cost of doing business and the threat of lawsuits," she says, "we have a terrible time recruiting new doctors."
The combined pressures surrounding obstetrical care continue to take their toll. The ACOG survey shows that as a result of the risk of malpractice, 17.1% of ob-gyns have decreased the amount of high-risk obstetric care they give, 8.9% are no longer practicing obstetrics at all, and 6.2% are decreasing the number of deliveries they perform.
The arbitrary nature of medical malpractice litigation, in which an excellent doctor can be destroyed by a lawsuit while an incompetent doctor escapes observation, augments physicians' frustrations. A paper in January's Journal of Family Practice observed that the doctor's bedside manner can be a definitive factor in a patient's decision to pursue litigation. Those doctors with poor interpersonal skills, even when they made fewer mistakes, were more likely to get sued than those who were better at communicating with patients. Perceived lack of respect or concern was the most common complaint made by patients of frequently sued obstetricians, reported a Florida study cited in the paper.
In Linda's case, her medical team's refusal to accept responsibility played a role in her decision. "I became convinced that a lawsuit was the only acceptable way to send a message that you're not happy with the situation," she says. "There was an arrogance on the doctors' part of not being willing to admit that they had made a mistake."
While Linda's anguish is legitimate, unfortunately ob-gyns are responding to the psychological and financial costs of lawsuits by abandoning obstetrical practice and deliveries, according to the ACOG survey. And that's what concerns Strunk.
"The impact in the '80s was that we had portions of the country left without ob-gyns," he says. "I think the current pressures will have the same general impact," he says. Which may well mean fewer doctors tending high-risk pregnancies and delivering babies.
Jennifer Howze's work has appeared in TheWall Street Journal Europe, The New York Observer, Self, and Travel and Leisure. She is based in New York City.

Pusher Pusher offers a wide range of items ranging from keyrings to stuffed animals. A special name for a prestigious brand that was born with the desire to surprise the audience; and it succeed in it thanks to its many products. Objects of daily use but characterized by a special and constant attention to a constantly evolving innovation. This is how this brand has created the stuffed animals that contain very soft blankets for your children's naps, the photo holders with a snow effect in the background, the rain kits composed of a rain hat and a coordinated umbrella, the boxes to store toys that turn into comfortable stools. With the rain kits in polyester, even the most rainy and dreary days acquire a cheerful and fun note. Your pictures, enclosed in glass ball, take on a special charm when, shaking them, you will have a glittery snow effect. But Pusher also created functional furniture home accessories, all characterized by a unique and elegant design, which perfectly fit in both a young and modern room, and in the most classic and traditional one. Many of the products by Pusher bring to mind images of nature. The metal coat hanger has the shape of a stylized tree; the capsules holder has the shape of a cactus, and cups, teaspoons and sugar are enclosed in another cute cactus. Particular attention is paid to the choice of raw materials. The cactus is made of PLA, a non-toxic plastic material, and 100% free of corn-based products, soy and other agricultural substances. Also the umbrella stand by Pusher has been designed as a magnificent lawn. The presence of the dripless device and the fact that it contains up to eight umbrellas, make it an indispensable accessory in the decoration of every home. As regards kitchen accessories, Pusher offers nice and timeless images. The kitchen timer with countdown up to sixty minutes has the shape of a rooster and hen, or of a cute little mouse struggling with a piece of cheese. Cooking will become easier and more fun thanks to this item. At the end of the set time, the rooster will approach the hen, the little mouse will try to eat the piece of cheese, and a ring will warn you that the cooking time has elapsed. The nutcracker has the shape of a reindeer, while the tea cart is proposed in a smart space-saving solution. When it is not in use, the tea cart can be easily folded and stored in a small space. Once opened however, you can easily bring to the table everything you need, thanks to the two methacrylate shelves and the food basket. And why not putting one of the most beautiful and exciting pictures from your last vacation in an airplane porthole-shaped frame? It will always call the attention of those who pass by, giving the feeling of an unusual view. The Air Frame frame is designed for a double use. It can be placed on a shelf thanks to the support on the back, or it can be hung on the wall like a beautiful picture. Pusher's whole production is characterized by double-function items or by items proposed in unusual look while keeping their main features unchanged.

The box to store children's toys can have the shape of a bus or a fire truck, and it will always keep in order the children room, becoming a useful stool that will give an even more refined touch to their room. The comfortable padded cover turns it into a comfortable seat. And to start the your kid's day there is nothing better than the small alarm clock with a retro flavour, in the shape of a clapperboard.

"Teraa Surroor"… So bad, it's not even funny
Spoilers ahead…
"Jurm ki duniya mujhe gangster ke naam se jaanti hai," says Himesh Reshammiya's Raghu in Shawn Arranha's Teraa Surroor, an in-spirit sequel to 2007's Aap Kaa Surroor. Looking at the singer-actor, you don't immediately think gangster. You think sulky schoolboy with facial paralysis who wandered into a broom closet and came out wearing a mop on his head. But think about it – gangster makes sense. Reshammiya, after all, has assassinated several members of the octave. And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays a guitar. No, that sentence is no mistake. This is a motif in the film. After a few scenes, we cut, without rhyme or reason, to this image – only, the instrument changes every time. So where were we? Ah, octave assassination. So we wonder if there's something fresh in store. Maybe this gangster's mode of operation is to tie his victims to a chair and launch into really high-pitched songs. But alas, Raghu simply wields a gun. And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the drums.
Then there's Tara (Farah Karimaee), Raghu's fiancée. He tells her he had a one-night stand (the woman was on top, in case you're wondering) and she says she's going to Ireland. We're stumped for a second. So that's what people are doing these days? Admissions of infidelity are being countered by air tickets to Dublin and Galway? And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the flute. So where were we? Ah, the one-night stand. It doesn't even make sense. All Raghu wanted was to insert an explosive chip into the woman's phone. Why go a step further, with another kind of inserting? Maybe it's a message to the audience that Himesh Reshammiya is a sexual being too. Those must be some really nasal orgasms. Anyway, Tara gets caught for drug-trafficking. And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the sax.
The film is about the hunt for a mystery man named Aniruddh Brahmin, Aniruddh Brahmin, Aniruddh Brahmin, Aniruddh Brahmin. They keep chanting his name like a mantra. He's to be found if Tara is to be freed. But Raghu has other plans. He visits Santino (Naseeruddin Shah), a prisoner he found out about through a billboard, and gets tips on escape plans. Looking at these two share a frame is to reimagine the restaurant scene in Heat with Al Pacino sitting across Zac Efron. And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the cello. Reshammiya is ambitious. He wants us to believe he has Anil Kapoor's Janbaaz-era swagger. Ek goli daali, paanch ghar khaali… Meanwhile Shekhar Kapoor, playing the Indian ambassador, says, "I guess that's why they say, 'Don't ever give a bad girl a good boyfriend'." Who's 'they'? Are people saying this? Monica Dogra is there. Shernaz Patel is there too. As Raghu and Tara try to flee the country, we think of possible sequels. Uskaa Surroor. Iskaa Surroor. Sab Kaa Surroor. Baba Ramdev Kaa Surroor. And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the bongos.
Surroor = Intoxication of love.
"Jurm ki duniya mujhe gangster ke naam se jaanti hai," = The world of crime knows me as a gangster.
Aap Kaa Surroor = see here

I couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for brightening my day.
sanjana
Shekhar Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shah, Monica Dogra in such a film. Pity!
Gradwolf
Hahaha you at least had a choice! Hahahaha tell me about it. Also I didn't notice that instruments changed. I was too preoccupied by that shot where he is randomly sitting in some valley supposedly brooding and also counting how many dubbing gaffes Monica Dogra piled up.
My God! Bad movies bring out the badass in you…. 😀
Anuja Chandramouli
I love every single one of your Himesh Reshammiya film reviews. This one was a hoot and you killed it with nasal orgasms while evoking empathy for the dearly departed members of the Octave that Reshammiya has ruthlessly murdered. Damm! I can't stop laughing. Hate to repay you with this, but hope Himesh makes many more movies for you to review!! Now excuse me, I have to go reread your Aap Ka Suroor review.
brangan
Anuja Chandramouli: Thank you. But seriously speaking, these are really tough reviews to write. Because a straightforward discussion of the film would just be boring and bland. You have to find some kind of thread to carry your points (about plot, cast, etc.) through till the end. Luckily, there was that villain by the window 😀
I am counting. And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the next musical instrument. You said there are no jokes! But only jokers? And a name like Aniruddh Brahmin!
This review is to be treasured and read whenever I am depressed. Like those Wodehouse novels and stories.
Thanks. And Naseeruddin Shah and Shekhar Kapoor in this film!

And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the cello.
And the masked villain stands by a floodlit window and plays the bongos.
Set a tune and sing it standing by a floodlit window.
I have my own personal theory, now that Himesh has done at least 4 such inter-continental monstrosities (Aap Ka Surroor, Karzzzz, Kajraare and Teraa Surroor) – that this is perhaps a super ingenious way to convert black money to white… on the lines of the film Rajinikanth makes in Arunachalam.
soumyabharathi
BR, no other critic that I can think of has this rare ability to turn reviews of awfully terrible movies into side splitting, amusingly drafted humour pieces… I often wonder is there any special preparation you do before watching these movies? Like turn on some invisible switch in your mind that automatically converts senseless screen time into hilariously funny one liners?
Radhika
Hi BR,
This was fun to read. Especially the closing line… इसका सूरूर, उसका सूरूर… 😆
venkatesh
I love it – If Zalman King was making movies now i suspect this is how they would look.
That's got to be one of the funniest movie reviews out there! 😂😂 Maybe you should tag them as Badass Reviews.
"Maybe this gangster's mode of operation is to tie his victims to a chair and launch into really high-pitched songs."
Wonder why this MO hasn't been tried? Death by bad music. Could have Himesh on one side and Salma Agha on the other wailing to a Bhoppida special.
So, what's your favorite "so bad it's good" film? Mine's probably the Neetu Singh, Randhir Kapoor starrer "Jaan-e-Jaan…has a taxidermied Gufi Paintal. 😯 Memsaab did a howlarious review of it on her blog a few years back.
http://memsaabstory.com/2010/08/26/mini-review-jaane-jaan-1983/
At last, one of your funny ones! the murder of the octave was hilarious
Sanjiv Khamgaonkar
Haha, nice! Especially your first paragraph! It's got some precious lines in there
Santosh Kumar T K
something divine at play that this movie was released on the 13th for after all 13 is the cube root of suroor ( an old one)?!
praneshp
Pretty sure this one isn't going to show up in The Hindu …..
@karthik: I'm sure every movie has a black->white conversion factor. Maybe this one, Saahasam, etc are made with just conversion as a goal, but I don't see how spending 10Cr in black and getting back 0.5 or so in white is good. I hope I'm off by a lot.
Monday morning and started irritating, but by gosh if this didn't make me laugh out loud. I made the right decision ! Thank you.
tonks
This review made me check out the 2007 review of Aap kaa surroor and the last paragraph was hilarious :
https://baradwajrangan.wordpress.com/2007/07/07/review-aap-kaa-surroor/
I think its safe to say that not since Darth Vader has there been so much curiosity about what lies under a man's headgear. Is he bald? Is he incubating eggs up there? Is he secretly housing Lord Voldemort? The answer, I hear, will be revealed in a sequel
LOL! What a review 🙂
The part about assassination through bad music reminded me of Vogon poetry in Hitchhiker's Guide.
ROTFL!! Tonks, thank you for posting the link. 😂😂😂 Incubating eggs, Lord Voldemort! 😂😂
Thanks Himesh….. you brought out the best of BR Saar. Hope you make atleast one movie a month.
@BR Saar…… your curse…. our boon😜
Admissions of infidelity are being countered by air tickets to Dublin and Galway?
So where were we? Ah, the one-night stand.
All Raghu wanted was to insert an explosive chip into the woman's phone. Why go a step further, with another kind of inserting?
Ranganisms?
@sanjana
BR anga nisms😣
Oh god, this might be your most hilarious movie review by far. "Baba Ramdev ki….!" 😉
On another note, Alistair Maclean's "Puppet on a Chain" had a villain who attempts to drive his enemies mad by tying them to a chair in a roomful of clocks set to go off at the same time and the noise amplified and fed via headphones to their ears. This was what I thought of the first time I heard one of Himesh bhai's songs.
Abhi T
Guys in case you didn't know, "Baba Ramdev Kaa Surroor" is available at nearest retail outlet under the Patanjali brand. Please check out the Health and Well-being section. 🙂
sridharraman
Hilarious review, @brangan! 🙂
Also, a nice personal touch for me as well – we moved to Galway six months back. Never thought it would be mentioned in a Hindi movie review and that too in one featuring Himesh! [unnecessary technicality alert – the airport here isn't really functional, so unlikely for tickets to be purchased. :P]
"Reshammiya, after all, has assassinated several members of the octave."
several noted members if I may add……
The film may have been too bad to be funny for you but your review certainly couldn't have been much funnier! Your Aapka Suroor review is also funny but this was like non stop ROFL. Of all the lines, "Those must be some really nasal orgasms" was the deadliest! 😀
Apparently found out your blogs are injurious to health:
Almost spilled the hot coffee from mug at this line: "Why go a step further, with another kind of inserting? Those must be some really nasal orgasms."
That's such a punch, it could break anyone's and everyone's surroor for once and all 🙂
Jeyashree
" sulky schoolboy with facial paralysis who wandered into a broom closet and came out wearing a mop on his head"
from there to the end I had tears overflowing as a consequence to muted laughter lying next to my sleeping toddler…thanks for the hilarious review
Amit Joki
BR I have heard a great deal about Pichaikaaran.
Is there any chance you would review it?
Oops, my bad. Sorry never saw that you had already reviewed it.
Gayathri
What a review. I am sitting in office, grinning like a loon. Thanks for gifting a smile.
sachita
I love how half of the funny lines are real plot points from the movie.. from Ireland to shekar kapur's line about bad girlfriend.
I had to head back and read your 'shakala boom boom' review. Particularly this line, "Darshan is one of those directors whose work you have to be very careful about panning – for, you never know, he'll come out with something worse the next time around and make you look back fondly on the lesser atrocity that was the previous film."
Darshan and himesh movies bring out the wittiest reviews from you.
Hi Baradwaj, will you be reviewing Kung Fu Panda 3 anytime soon.
Damn! Now if ONLY……..the masked villain stood by the moonlit window….while SHE played the flute…..this piece of cinematic turd might have something to offer 🙂
I wonder if Himesh is the closest equivalent the North has to TRR in terms of the almost surreal badness of his movies?
mary kutty
Did Naseer really need immediate cash for something? Still surreal to think of Himesh and Naseer in the same frame in a movie.
He stood by the blah blah blah. While the masked vamp played the blah.
Just noticed Himes bhai holding a gun to his head in the poster above. He is such a tease!
Srinivas R
This review led me to "Aap Ka Suroor" and what do I see there? BR labeling Hansika Motwani "impressive" :). BR, you should have taken that interview gig after all 🙂
The sad part is that this will still make 15 crs at the box office & recover its money while a "Titli" did not even crack 3 crs!!!!! Audience is khajoooorr!!!!!
Flickside
#WhenReviewsAreMoreEntertainingThanTheFilm Oops! Did I just call 'Terra Surroor' entertaining? But seriously, sympathies with you for having to sit through 'films' like these. #OccupationalHazards 🙂
@brangan – I just learned that you went to BITS, Pilani and now it all makes sense. We loved watching these so-bad-they-are-awesome movies. For every inane dialog or situation, we would be instantly rewarded with creative and witty one liners volleyed back from all across the audi (our beloved movie theater). Every bad dialog would be milked for banter. While we appreciated good movies, we truly feasted on Tera Saroor type of movies. It is great to see you carry that sensibility to these reviews.

College Accreditors Under Pressure To Crack Down
When City College of San Francisco was given a year to rein in a massive debt, fix deteriorating facilities, and bring its academic courses up to standards, it wasn't state or federal regulators threatening to close the college if it didn't respond. Nor was it parents, legislators, or impatient bankers. The shutdown warning came from an obscure organization probably unknown to most of the 80,000 students who attend the huge community college: the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, one of six regional accreditors that license two- and four-year institutions.
These regional accrediting agencies, and some of the 52 national accreditors that regulate religious, online, career, and other specific types of schools, have started to crack down on universities and colleges in the face of increasing pressure from Congress, the White House, and education reformers—and threats that the government could step in to take over their roles if they don't.
For decades, according to critics, accrediting agencies—made up mostly of professors and administrators—rubber-stamped universities' accreditations. Though largely out of sight of most Americans, accreditors control the approvals that keep colleges and universities pulling in students and eligible for taxpayer dollars; the U.S. Department of Education and states rely on them when determining whether institutions are eligible for billions in taxpayer-funded financial aid.
Yet for decades, according to their critics, the accrediting agencies—made up mostly of professors and administrators who judge the work of other professors and administrators—rubber-stamped universities' accreditations after reviewing their academics, student services, and finances every few years.
As a result, "many accredited public and nonprofit colleges and universities across the country fail even basic tests of quality, yet remain accredited," said a September report by the American Enterprise Institute, a Washington-based think tank. Accreditors have failed to protect taxpayers, who invest billions in universities and colleges, and threaten America's global competitiveness in higher education, the AEI report said.

Meet Naviyd Ely Raymond, Son of R&B Singer Usher and Tameka Foster
Home » Celebrity Babies » Meet Naviyd Ely Raymond, Son of R&B Singer Usher and Tameka Foster
Upadted On: July 15, 2022 Published On: July 17, 2018 k Smith
Usher's personal life has been a pretty troublesome one. Court cases related to child custody have been a constant in his life. But all this trouble he has had to endure will seem nothing to him thanks to beautiful sons, especially his younger son Naviyd Ely Raymond.
Naviyd is the second son of Usher after Usher Raymond V. Usher had both his sons with his ex-wife Tameka Foster. Naviyd was born in December 2008, a year after the birth of his elder brother. He lives with his father and brother and has a pretty luxurious life.
A post shared by Usher (@usherraymondiv) on Mar 8, 2015 at 1:11am PST
Young Naviyd has a stark resemblance to his father. He is pretty similar in terms of looks and also has the charms of his father Usher. With that look and charms, he looks set to follow in his dad's footsteps and become a star. He already seems on the track to stardom as he was seen being critical of his father's music.
According to Usher, when he took his son Naviyd to the studio, he wasn't impressed with what he was hearing and told Usher that he was a bad singer. Usher further said that little Naviyd acts like a star and isn't afraid to criticize his father or someone else for that matter. Looks like Usher's youngest child is ready for the spotlight.

Usher loves spending time with his youngest son. He is seen taking Naviyd to parks and zoos for visits. Cameras have spotted him hanging around with both his sons on a regular basis. He even takes his youngest kid to walks in the park and other areas. It is clear that his love for his two sons is eternal.

But these moments with his sons haven't come easily for Usher. He had to engage in a bitter legal battle for the custody of the two sons with his ex-wife Tameka Foster after the two got divorced in 2009. The heated court battle lasted for over 3 years as the case was finally settled on August 24, 2012, with Usher winning custody of both his kids.
A year later, Foster again filed for custody of both her sons after the elder son Usher V nearly died after being stuck in a drain while in the swimming pool, citing carelessness from Usher. The case was dismissed soon with Usher regaining custody of his sons.
Naviyd Ely Raymond- Name Meaning
The name Naviyd is of Persian Origin which means "good news."
As for the name Ely, it is a Hebrew baby name which means 'Jehovah is God'.

Britain's Got Talent 2020: When was it filmed?
Britain's Got Talent returned to ITV last week (Saturday, April 11), where viewers got to see the first few auditions from up and down the country. Thousands once applied to get their moment in the spotlight and impress not only the judges but the live audience. So when did filming for Britain's Got Talent actually take place?
Judges David Walliams, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and, of course, Simon Cowell, were welcomed back last weekend as the first round of BGT auditions were aired.
The first instalment in the series showcased an impressive range of talents which kept both the live audience and those watching it at home hooked.
The cute factor appeared when Russian dancer Diana Vedyashinka performed with her five pet Dachshunds and some couldn't help but hide behind their hands at contortionist Papi Flex got himself in a twist.
But one act got the judges in tears and became the first Golden Buzzer act of the series.
Britain's Got Talent: Amanda Holden leaves viewers distracted
Sign Along With Us is a sign language group which not only sings but signs along to music.
The group was originally put together by 18-year-old Jade Kilduff after she helped her little brother Christian who has cerebral palsy learn sign language.
Their family feared he would never be able to communicate but with Jade's help, he has been able to express himself through sign language and music.
The group performed The Greatest Showman's This Is Me and Alesha and Amanda welled up at their emotional performance.
But it was actually David who went one step further and pushed the Golden Buzzer, sending the group straight through to the live semi-finals.
When was Britain's Got Talent 2020 auditions filmed?
The UK has been in lockdown thanks to the coronavirus pandemic for the past few weeks with the majority of businesses temporarily closing and most people working from home.
The lockdown has since been extended for another few weeks as the number of people contracting and dying from COVID-19 continues to rise.
Social distancing measures were also put into place where people have to stay at least 2metres apart from anyone who is not living in their household.
So with the BGT auditions now on our screens while lockdown is in place has raised a few questions.

The Britain's Got Talent live auditions were filmed months ago, prior to UK lockdown and social distancing measures.
As the episodes had already been filmed, it is safe to show the auditions on ITV.
However, the live shows will now be postponed until later this year, meaning Britain's Got Talent will be divided into two parts.
The semi-finals were meant to be shown next month but a new start date for the live shows has not yet been confirmed.
Britain's Got Talent fans call for former star to make comeback
An ITV spokesman said: "The Britain's Got Talent audition shows will broadcast on ITV in the next few weeks.
"We have been working with the brilliant production teams at Thames and Syco to find a way of making the live finals work, which were due to be broadcast at the end of May.
"However, in light of the latest government health guidelines and in line with our priority of safeguarding the well-being of everyone involved in our programmes, production of the live shows cannot go ahead as planned."
Britain's Got Talent continues tonight at 8pm on ITV.

Q: Angular2 getting data from web api no display I'm new at angular2 and I'm trying to get data from web api with my angular2 application. I'm using Visual Studio 2015. I have no error but the datas just don't display, I should get all the users Login display on my html page but it's empty,  it shows the right number of existing Logins though, here's the result :

my component :
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
import { Http, Response } from "@angular/http";

@Component({
    selector: "team",
    templateUrl: "../Scripts/components/team/team.component.html"
})
export class TeamComponent {
    public users: IUserID[];
    private _userIdUrl = "http://localhost:61142/api/UserID";
    constructor(private http: Http) {
        http.get(this._userIdUrl).subscribe(result => {
            this.users = result.json();
        });
    }
}

interface IUserID {
    Login: string;
}

and my controller :
 [EnableCors(origins: "*", headers: "*", methods: "*")]
    public class UserIDController : ApiController
    {
        IUserIDBusiness userIDBusiness;

        public UserIDController()
        {
            userIDBusiness = WebApiConfig.userIDBusiness;
        }

        public IEnumerable<UserID> Get()
        {
            return userIDBusiness.GetAll();
        }

[EDIT]
Html :
<ul>
    <li *ngFor="let user of users">
        {{ user.Login }}
    </li>
</ul>

What am I missing ?

A: Change {{ users.Login }} to {{ user.Login }}

A: A better approach for this is to actually create a service where you make the http call, instead of making the call in the constructor.
Start by creating a service which could look like this for example:
import { Injectable } from "@angular/core";
import { Http, Response } from '@angular/http';
import 'rxjs/operator/map';

@Injectable()
export class UserService extends ServiceBase {
    private _userIdUrl = "http://localhost:61142/api/";

     getUserData(userId: number) {
     return http.get(`this._userIdUrl/${userId}`)
        .map((response: Response) => response.json());
     }
}

After creating your service you should inject it in your component(having said that you registered the service in the app.module providers)
Read more about services if you don't know how to register your service.
Then your component would look something like this:
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
import { UserService } from '..' // import the service where you stored it.

@Component({
    selector: "team",
    templateUrl: "../Scripts/components/team/team.component.html"
})
export class TeamComponent implements OnInit {
    public users: IUserID[];
    constructor(private _userService: UserService) {
    }
}

ngOnInit() {
    this._getUserData();
}

private _getUserData() {
    this._userService.getUserData(userId) // pass the userId here. you can get it from the router params or somewhere else.
        .subscribe(response => {
            if(response){
                this.users = <IUserID>response.json();
            }
        },
        error => console.log(error)) // handle errors the way you like.
}

You see, by taking this approach you abstract the way data is fetched from the server and your component has no idea or does not care about how data is fetched, which is good because this means you decompled your logic for getting data from the component.(Not to mention your code in the component gets a lot cleaner)

Q: Fresh Ubuntu 12.10 install no desktop or wing bar After a fresh installm of ubuntu 12.10 (complete erase) after logging in it appears i have no taskbar or much of anything, although i can still execute my terminal with CTRL+ALT+T. i looked around a little, seems i'm not the only person who has had this problem.
I found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=12303179#post12303179
From there, i found myself here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates/+bug/1068341
I followed precisely the instructions provided which were:
this problem is solved this way
Switch to a terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F1).
Login as your username.

Install linux source (sudo apt-get install linux-source) and headers (sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic).

Uninstall nvidia driver - this depends on which version you installed (sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current or sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current-updates or sudo apt-get remove nvidia-experimental-304).

Reinstall nvidia driver (sudo apt-get install nvidia-current-updates).

If it successfully installs, restart the computer (sudo shutdown -r now).

Desktop does not show when I installed nvidia drivers!
I have rebooted, and i am still having the exact same problem.
