Why should I?
This is a term that is in common use in the context of dietary
calcium supplements. Calcium is an element. It is a metal. So one might expect 'elemental calcium' to refer to pure calcium metal. In the nutrition business it does not.
In the nutrition business 'elemental calcium' refers simply to
calcium. If you are told you require 1 gram of elemental calcium per day that means you require 1 gram of calcium per day. This will not be calcium metal, as the name 'elemental calcium would lead one to think, but a calcium compound such as calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is 40 % calcium by weight, thus a 500 mg pill of calcium carbonate contains 200 mg of calcium; the container may indicate each pill has 200 mg of 'elemental calcium'. It would be much less confusing if the container label said each pill contains 200 mg of calcium.

Eivind Aarset is a Norweigian Guitarist who has worked with artists such as Ray Charles, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Ute Lemper, Ketil Bjornstad, Mike Mainieri, Arild Andersen, Abraham Laboriel and Django Bates yet is most known for his work with trumpeter Nils Petter Molvaer.
His style is often associated with that of Nu Jazz as his performing, improvising and albums feature a strong 21st century electronic influence. He is considered to be one of the unqiue re-interpretations of what the role and sound of the electric guitarist can be.

Nintendo Has Announced The Official Name Of Its Next Generation Game Console Code Named Revolution On 27th April 2006.An Official Announcment Said:
"Introducing... Wii.
As in "we."
While the code-name Revolution expressed our direction, Wii represents the answer. Wii will break down that wall that seperates videogame players from everybody else. Wii will put people more in touch with their games... and each other. But you're probably asking: What does the name mean?
Wii sounds like "we," which emphasizes the console is for everyone. Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.
Wii has a distinctive "ii" spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people playing it. And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of videogames that sets it apart from the crowd.
So that's Wii. But now Nintendo needs you. Because it's really not about you or me. It's about Wii. And together, Wii will change everything."
The Name Faced A Negative Reaction By The Industry & Fans.

Pope IX started Warner as "Soup with a Fork" in the early 80's. The band went through a few members including Deez Thompson and Harvey Winklebaum. The sound was loud and intense and few people really clicked with it, but they had a loyal following. Mid 80's Warner played some East Coast shows and found a kid by the name of Martin Freedricks. Martin jumped on stage to sing a song with (then singer) Herb of the Burbs, only to find after the show that Herb was quitting. Pope IX talked Martin into joining and Martin immediately left the East Coast to fly out to Cali to start work on the now famous album "Fuck You, I Fucking Hate You, Suck My Balls" which was released under then independent RCA records.
Despite overwhelming success, "Fuck You..." was banned across all 7 continents and over 40 minor islands, many without a single record store. RCA dropped the band from the label, tore up the contract, stole all the money, and sold out. The album was later re-released on still-independent label "Fail Everything." The cover art was changed and the tracks re-arranged and a couple live covers added to the end. The live covers were later pulled when they were found to include copyrighted James Brown samples from a rap concert in the next building that could be heard on the live recording. Regardless, the band "Soup with a Fork" had left it's mark.
Blah blah blah Nirvana, grunge music. 90's come around and "Soup with a Fork" is tired of recanting their former glory to continually dwindling live audiences. They adopt a grungier sound and rename themselves "Fuckwagon" -- a clever twist on "Chuckwagon" who at the time was a lighter indie band they would open for. As "Fuckwagon" they released the benign "Marshall Law" which was a punk rock-esque ode to music crammed into one 30-minute long song. It was met with mixed reviews and some harsh criticism. The band quickly lost all hope.
Mid 90's everybody agrees to let rock die and opts for electro-industrial-metal instead. Fuckwagon, on the other hand, believes that while rock might be dead, punk rock is inherintly different, regains some hope, and decides to try a second time. Unfortunately, the band decides they hate each other for the most part and falls apart. A few days later Pope IX and Martin get together with long time bass-player friend Flea and talk over the formation of a new band -- Warner.
Flea calls up legendary drummer Phil Hammerstein and the four start writing. Somewhere around this time Martin starts going by Fuk Choo, a clever twist on Fuck You. Warner in it's new incarnation clicks instantly and starts releasing album after album with their new independent label "presh records." The band is innundated with offers to sign to major labels but refuse -- recalling what happened with RCA before. All the releases are underground legends and the band tours extensively (sometimes having other bassists fill in for Flea who was also working with side projects at the time).
2005. Warner is hard at work drinking and partying, every few months or so making up a song and recording it. Eventually, Project 33 will be released and it too will be an underground hit.

spookie daly pride
Spookie Daly (the band’s leader, a singer, keyboard player and unselfconsciously joyous live performer), Tommy Diehl (percussion), Pete Whitham (guitars, vocals) and Floyd Kellogg (bass) have just the prescription for your flagging spirits with this 12-song antidote. Running the musical gamut from hip-hop to jazz to roots rock to N’awlins funk, Spookie Daly Pride (SDP) may have flown under the radar of music critics so far, but their grassroots reputation as a guaranteed good-time live band has registered loudly and proudly with their rabid and growing fan base. Replete with saloon-style piano pounding (think NRBQ, one of the bands’ biggest influences), blazing rock guitar riffs, meaty Memphis-style bass lines and carnivalesque electronic flourishes, the music embraces a wide variety of influences. But from the rhythmic thrust dance beat and double-entendre of “The Bumpin’ Uglies Song” to the cute, infectious groove of “The Personal Ad Song” to the feel-good jazz-funk of “Sooo Delicious!!!” (complete with a Roy Orbison-ish vocal alternating with Spookie’s usual big bad wolf delivery), the music falls squarely within the category they’ve aimed for all along: uncategorically original and FUN.
SDP shares Boston roots with crazy-busy, way hi-profile production team of Sean Slade and Paul Kolderie. Founders of the legendary Fort Apache recording studio in Cambridge Mass., Kolderie and Slade have served as the production powerhouse behind rock bands like the Pixies, Radiohead, the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Dinosaur Jr., Buffalo Tom, Hole and countless others. In 2002 the pair opened Camp Street Studios, keeping the Fort Apache tradition alive by continuing to work with vital new bands and eclectic sounds. When they heard Spookie Daly Pride’s hip-hop infused brand of funk rock, the pair enthusiastically signed on – Slade as producer, with Kolderie sharing the mixing duties.
Hailing from Boston has worked some other karma into the mix too: the band does a bang-up business bringing their live show to the college crowd, and have a grassroots army of fans who are devoted to converting music lovers to the ranks of the Pride. Suffice to say their performances are parties (or is it vice versa?). They play their hook-laden, groove-filled songs with joyful, irreverent abandon, and the happy fever’s catching.
Spookie Daly Pride has been mentioned in the same breath as Soul Coughing, Tom Waits, Dr. John, and G. Love. Certainly comparisons can be made. But there’s something completely unique about the playful charisma of lead man Spookie and the swaggering second line antics of the Pride. Having shared bills with the likes of Leftover Salmon, Foo Fighters, Busta Rhymes and Rusted Root, they’ve grabbed the attention of audiences with a wide range of tastes. Songs from their first album, MARSHMALLOW PIE have been used on TV shows on MTV and ESPN; they’ve also had their music placed in feature films, thus widening that illin’ audience even more.

Pick tapping is a technique wherein the side of the guitar pick is used to fret notes on the guitar neck. It is very similar to finger tapping except the pick is used, rather than the finger.
Pick tapping can give a cleaner sound than finger tapping, but it is harder to add vibrato to the tapped note than with the finger.
Generally, it is also easier to tap more rapidly with the pick than the finger. An example of this can be heard near the beginning of the Randy Rhoads guitar solo on the Blizzard of Ozz's Crazy Train where rapid taps on the G string are performed while the left hand is slowly bending and releasing a fretted note lower down on the string. This gives an effect similar to that of a whammy bar being depressed and released.

[ [ Cave Architecture ] ]
The cave architecture in India is believed to have begun in the third century BC. These caves were used by Buddhist and Jain monks as places of worship and residence.Some examples of this type of cave structure are Chaityas and Viharas of Buddhists.The great cave at Karle is one such example, where great Chaityas and Viharas were excavated by hewing out rocks.Besides the caves at Karle, many caves were excavated at other places. These were excavated not only by Buddhists or Jains but also by Hindus. Some of the famous and prominent caves are at Nashik,Elephanta and Ellora,etc.

Maryland State Soil
[Maryland State Soil Established in 1901, the Sassafras series was one of the first soil series in the early days of soil survey activities in the U.S. It is one of the oldest soil series in the U.S. It is designated as a Benchmark and Hall of Fame soil series, which is a recognition of its historical significance in the evolution of soil science in the U.S. These soils are mapped on nearly 500,000 acres in Maryland. The Sassafras series consists of very deep, well drained, moderately permeable soils formed in sandy marine and old alluvial sediments of the Coastal Plain. These soils are categorized as prime farmland, which means that they are among the most productive soils in the state for agriculture and forestry, in addition to being one of the soils best suited to construction, onsite effluent disposal, and recreational development.]

Arlington Heights v. Metropolitan Housing Corp
Arlington Heights v. Metropolitan Housing Corp. 429 U.S. 252 (1977) In this case the city of Arlington Heights refused to rezone property so that low-income housing could be built. The developers seeking zoning changes sued, saying that the decision not to rezone violated the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. The theory of the case was one of discriminatory impact. The plaintiffs relied on Yick Wo and Gomillion v. Lightfoot, in which plaintiffs succeeded in challenging laws that were written in racially neutral terms, but that severely detrimented one racial group. The court has never recognize racial impact as an adequate basis for a constitutional violation all by itself, but has always required that the plaintiffs prove a discriminatory intent. However, in Yick Wo and Gomillion, the court accepted an extremely disproportionate impact as evidence proving a discriminatory intent. The plaintiffs in this case asserted that the disparate racial impact of the zoning proved that the city intended to discriminate against racial minorities.
The SCOTUS dealt with two significant issues: First, whether the plaintiffs had standing. Second, whether the zoning was in violation of equal protection.
Regarding the second issue, the court stated that in order to use disparate impact alone to prove discrimination, they plaintiffs must show a "clear pattern, unexplainable on grounds other than race." Ultimately the court ruled against the plaintiffs. This case reaffirmed the principle articulated in Washington v. Davis, that discriminatory impact was not a per se violation of equal protection, but merely evidence of discriminatory intent. While appearing to allow considerable latitude for the use of statistical evidence of discrimination, in application Arlington Heights and similar cases almost entirely foreclose using discriminatory impact to prove intent. Ironically, many of the most fervent opponents of the use of statistics to prove racial discrimination end up using those statistics themselves to support overturning affirmative action. See Grutter, Rehnquist J dissenting.

Chain Chomps reside in the land of Mario, appearing in such games as Super Mario Bros 3., Super Mario 64, Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and other such titles. Chain Chomps are attached to chins and chomp at their enemy, their name basically a blunt descripition of what these creatures do. Chain Chomps have even been seen harassing some areas of golfing (Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour)and were even used as a Special item during Kart races (Mario Kart: Double Dash!) A Chain Chomp even blocked the way to a Star in Super Mario 64, forcing the player to pound down the stake the chain was attached to until the creature was freed. Once out of its captivity, this Chain Chomp hit the fence blocking the Star and then fled the scene. Chain Chonps have also blocked the way in the second chapter of Paper Mario (the first) guarding important relics. For more information on Chain Chomps, go to nintendo.com

Areal density is a measure of how densely bits can be packed onto the surface of a hard drive. As this increases, more data can be stored on the hard drive. A higher areal density also increases reliability and reduces cost, because fewer read and write heads are required.

PCTFE (PolyChloroTriFluoroEthylene) is a fluorocarbon-based polymer and is commonly abbreviated PCTFE. PCTFE offers the unique combination of physical and mechanical properties, nonflammability, chemical resistance, near zero moisture absorption, and excellent electrical properties. These characteristics cannot be found in any other thermoplastic fluoropolymer with a useful temperature range of -400°F to +400°F. PCTFE also has extremely low outgassing, making it well suited for use in aerospace and flight applications.
Kel-F® is a registered tradename of 3M Company. In 1996, 3M discontinued manufacturing of Kel-F & today, all PCTFE resin is manufactured by Daikin under the tradename of Neoflon ® or by Allied Signal under the tradename of Aclon ®. Kel-F is still the most commonly used tradename used to describe PCTFE.

Stately Wayne Manor With such "Manorisms" as "I don't believe in organized religion. People should be free to worship me any way they choose" and "Humility is a flaw, and I have none," it's hardly a surprise to learn Stately Wayne Manor has thrice been touted as "The World's Most Conceited Man" in such prestigious journals as The Weekly World News and The Sun. Nor is it a shocker that the letters in his tribute site URL, [www.SWMSWM.com], stand for "Stately Wayne Manor's Site to Worship Me."
What tends to most infuriate people about Manor is that he actually does have a multitude of talents (and achievements in those genres) to back up the boisterous braggadocios.
For instance, having "America's greatest rock drummer," on his resume was not sufficient for Manor. He: without a single lesson, became competent enough at songwriting, synthesizer, various percussion instruments, harmonica, vocals and electric bass to perform each discipline onstage; knowing one published article might be considered a fluke, wrote three for Modern Drummer magazine to further establish credibility; and, was dubbed "a virtuoso" by a Philadelphia-area newspaper.
Fueled by the advent and aggression of punk rock in the late Seventies, and combining his interests in performing and "learning great new ways to injure others," Manor immersed himself in a childhood hobby, professional wrestling, and was particularly drawn towards the "heels" ("bad guys.")
Never content to merely observe, but lacking the bulk required to participate in matches, Manor eventually broke into the bonebending business in 1984 as a pro-heel columnist for Wrestling World magazine, his highly provocative "Stately States" inspiring hate mail from around the globe. Having established himself as "The Sultan Of Insultin'" for his blistering attacks on the mat heroes and those who support them, Manor expanded into color commentating, managing grapplers, performing in-ring skits and ghost-writing wisecracks used by several wrestling superstars on pay-per-view and national TV broadcasts.
During 1995, in the midst of his 17-year tenure with Wrestling World, Manor debuted a second villain-praising column, that one in Britain's ''Power Slam. It too provokes a great deal of controversy among readers, no doubt fueled by outrageous antics such as Manor one-upping John Lennon with the declaration "Jesus couldn't hold a candle to me. Besides, if he tried, it would fall right through the hole in his hand."
When not penning zingers denigrating shirtless mammoths, the long-time self-proclaimed King Of Columnists takes on the general public and mainstream celebrities via his sociopathic "On Manor's Mind" rants for the alternative set. He also authors "Manor On Movies," a remarkably non-abrasive homage to obscure so-bad-they're-good films, and one of the earliest columns of its kind still regularly published.
Manor has guested on countless radio programs throughout the US and Canada, including morning drive time shows in Philadelphia and New York City. In addition to the above publications, his photo has also appeared in books about David Bowie and the original supermodel Gia, as well as on national television.
An absolutely shameless self-promoter (guess who ghost-wrote the trio of "Most Conceited Man" tabloid pieces), it is rumored Stately Wayne Manor will pose as someone else in order to rave about himself on Usenet, individual site bulletin boards and even online reference sources.
His latest exploits include: writing to the White House and insisting the name of the country immediately be changed to "the United Statelys"; and, being ejected from the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida, after it appeared he was about to autograph "The Persistence Of Memory" to, as Manor put it, "give that old thing some real market value."
There are those who theorize the entire SWM persona is a hoax. Tonia Milford, editor of Art Scene Zine, has suggested Manor is in fact "one of the paramount Absurdists to ever live.
"Manor has taken the form to the ultimate level. Whereas others use paint, film, found objects, plaster, and so on, Manor's medium is himself. Also unlike others, there is no separation between the artist and his art. no defined exhibition or performance.
"A letter to the Queen Mother opening with the salutation 'Yo, Queenie, baby'? The pocket device that is a small mirror on one side and a photo of Stately labeled 'Perfection' on the other so, as he puts it, ' a user can compare'?
"Surely, he is winking on the inside. Look at the subtle clues. For example, if one abbreviates 'Conceited Man,' one gets 'Con Man'!"

The Talented And Gifted Magnet at Tonview Center is one of the top 3 public schools in the United States, according to Newsweek magazine. The school has been featured in other places such as D Magazine.File:Http://teacherweb.com/TX/TAGMagnet/Main/griffin1.bmp The school mascot is the griffin, and the colors are blue and gold. ID badges are worn, but not willingly. Unusual fashions are common. It is a very diverse school, ethnically, religiously and culturally. As well as wonderful, smart students, there are wonderful teachers who are very cool and fun. Many unique things are done in TAG, such as the TREK field trip at the beginning of the year, which is a 3-day trip during which lots of interesting and mind-stimulating things are done. As Townview in general doesn't have sports teams, TAG has been known to organize their own. Once example of this is the Powderpuff football team. Here is some information about TAG from the website[6]: "TAG graduates are accepted to and attend the most prestigious colleges and universities in the country, such as harvard, Stanford, Yale, Columbia, NYU, Cal-Tech, MIT, Cal-Berkeley, Vassar, Amherst, Oberlin, Wellesley, Carlton, Swarthmore, Rice, Johns Hopkins, Reed, Morehouse, Emory, Howard, the Honors Programs at UT-Austin, Texas A&M, Washington University-St. Louis, and the U.S. Military Academies. The 2005 graduating class of thirty-eight students was offered cumulative scholarships in excess of $9 million.
All students are expected the follow the Distinguished Achievement Program as outlined by the State of Texas and the Texas Education Agency. In 2005, ALL graduates were recognized as DAP Texas Scholars. The TAG curriculum includes interdisciplinary activities such as TREK, TAG-IT, TAG Forum, and grade-level seminars that reflect the principles of gifted education as outlined by the Texas State Plan for the Education of Gifted/Talented Students and national standards for gifted education.
Students are required to follow an extensive Advanced Placement (AP) and Pre-AP curriculum that includes a minimum of eleven required AP courses. In addition, TAG offers many opportunities for academic, civic, and personal enrichment through its wide variety of honor societies, academic competitions, clubs, and organizations. "
Overall, TAG is a stupendous high school, and if you are a middle schooler: go there. If you are a parent: send your kid there. It is the best school ever.
A translation of the open letter in Dutch to Mohammed Bouyeri and his friends, which was read on the densly viewed Dutch late night talkshow Barend en van Dorp by Theodor Holman, a close friend of Theo van Gogh. The letter bursted with irony and sarcasm, and can be understood partly as a reaction to the open letter that the murderer pinned on the victim's body, which was adressed to the dutch people and some politicians, and partly as a humorous assault on the dead-seriousness and censorship-like character of religious fundamentalism.
Dear Mohammed and friends,
What a shame things turned out like this. We hadn’t any idea that matters were so precarious. We’ve certainly had our lesson. How is the leg doing?* Please lets try and keep things together, with some mutual respect it will all work out just fine; otherwise things again will end up in such a bloody mess. Could you provide us with some strict guidelines as to what we can and cannot say? That al of this had to happen - dammit, especially during rammadan. We will try our utmost to learn more about your religious beliefs, so further misunderstandings can be avoided. We are all deeply ashamed, Mohammed. Surely, we are accountable for putting you in such a terrible predicament. This time we’ve really gone too far. We blame ourselves. For heavens sake, try not to lose your sense of humor, God knows you’ll need it in the time coming. We hope this open letter doesn’t contain anything which might upset you and your fellow believers. If it does, please forgive us; we also are a bit confused. Well, dude, chin up! Try and put it all behind you, tomorrow’s another day. And remember, whatever happens: always keep smiling.
Courage,
untill we write again,
The friends of Theo van Gogh

Whitchurch High School is a secondary school located in the Cardiff Suburb of Whitchurch. Its catchment area includes much of the Cardiff North Parliamentary Constituency, including Whitchurch, Rhiwbina, Llandaff North, Thornhill, Tongwynlais, Birchgrove, Heath and Gabalfa.
The school itself is located on two sites approximately five minutes walk from each other, the lower school site serving years 7-9, and the upper school site serving years 10-11 (GCSE)and the Sixth Form Centre (AS Levels, A Levels, and the International Baccaleaureate). The two sites were originally built in the 1930s as two seperate schools. Until the early 1970s, the current lower school site operated as Whitchurch Secondary Mondern, and the current upper school site operated as Whitchurch Grammar School, both within the juristiction of the Glamorganshire County Council.
Currently, Whitchurch High is the largest state school in Wales with approximately 2,400 students, and the second largest in the United Kingdom. It is operated by the Cardiff Council. In April 2006 it was suggested that the school be moved in its entirety to the upper school site, with the lower school site becoming a Roman Catholic High School, however, these plans were rejected by the full council shortly afterward.

Rantoboko
Born in Rhodesia, on the 10th of October, in 1975 at the peak of the Zimbabwean liberation guerilla war, Rantoboko, born Sipho Sithole, was raised on a farm plot in the outskirts of Harare. Growing up around general field hand workers and sharing their experiences, whilst at the same time being part of the main household, and thus the employee soon saw a split personality emerging in young Rantoboko. Incidents of trying to find common ground between his family and the workers caused innumerable social conflicts. These circumstances awakened Rantoboko into society’s social injustices at an early age. This, however, didn’t stop him from building his own drum set from rusty olive oil tin cans where he amazed his family with prodigal understandings of rhythms and melodies.
More about "Ranto"
While singing in the school choir, Rantoboko found his mother’s record collection which contained everything from reggae to rock, plus most of Zimbabwe’s prominent local music gurus, notably Thomas Mapfumo and Oliver Mtukudzi. Before completing his secondary education at President Mugabe’s Kutama Mission, his singing won him a pair of second hand imported PUMA sneakers at the major arts competition. After having managed to get into prestigious Prince Edward School through his conquests as a national table-tennis vice-captain player, Rantoboko soon got expelled for being distracted in school and general un-focusing in class. In 1996, he went to Botswana to run a nightclub and perform with his band Roughneck Illegals. After a year of efforts to put a band together, he finally ended up behind bars for a fight with a co-worker.
In 1997, Rantoboko formed a band called the Urban Africans. They were opening acts for the U.S. hip hop group the Lost Boyz. Their pro-African reggae orientated live acoustic rap set won them so much acclaim that Rantoboko was asked to guide Jamaican ragga icon Buju Banton on his tour in Zimbabwe. Their first album, which never got released, was completed in early 1999. The same year Rantoboko moved to Pretoria, South Africa. There he got a break in form of a license deal for a track he produced, “360 Substitutes” featuring Bless 360. The year 2000, he worked continuously on his solo album and a kwaito act called the Swaito project for the label Tuff Gong. He soon quit the band as the music was neither inspiring nor forthcoming. Instead he approached Lance Stehr of Ghetto Ruff Records with a resurrected Urban Africans live hip hop set. This resulted in two tracks “A Thousand People” and “Scatterings of Africa”. Ghetto Ruff Records then decided to work with Rantoboko on a solo effort.
His "real" breakthrough
A year of random productions for Ghetto Ruff led to the much anticipated “Steps For The Future”, an African film project with an accompanying soundtrack album, on which Rantoboko featured with the leading track and video “1000 People”. March 2001, Swedish filmmaker Simon Klose filmed Rantoboko perform in his apartment in Yeoville. After having seen the tape, Swedish JuJu Records producer M.O.N.S. (Breakmecanix) decided to try working together with Rantoboko. He flew in from Sweden and set up a studio together with Simon Klose in Bryanston, Johannesburg, where they recorded for two months early 2002. Later in May, Rantoboko went on a five month stay in Breakmecanix studio in Malmoe, Sweden to work on a full length album.
During his stay in Sweden, Rantoboko along with M.O.N.S. finished the recording sessions for the album, Urban Africa. They teamed up with friends Promoe (from Loop Troop), Timbuktu and Chords among others to do some collaboration tracks. Due to the policies in Sweden, Rantoboko had to prepare his trip back to South Africa, after five months in Malmoe.
The next year, Rantoboko came back to Sweden. This time he had a couple of promotional concerts booked, in Malmoe, Stockholm, Gothenburg and other cities. His accoustic live-performance was well received, and a single was released in that same wave. “Kumba Kure” was the first solo-release for Rantoboko on JuJu Records, a three-track single produced by Breakmecanix. During his time in Sweden, Rantoboko also collaborated on such albums as Promoe – “The Long Distance Runner”, Chords – “The Garden Around The Mansion”, Loop Troop – “The Struggle Continues” and Embee’s “Tellings From Solitaria”. Now that the album and all post-production have been completed, JuJu Records proudly presents the debut album from Rantoboko, “Urban Africa”.
Back in Zimbabwe
Back in Zimbabwe, Rantoboko decided to go see his father’s side of the family. Being a son of an Ndebele father and a Shona mother, Rantoboko personifies the two main tribes of Zimbabwe. The journey led him to his almost blind grandmother in the Bulilimangwe village area. Tear-filled she told him about his great, great grandfather who was called Rantoboko. After having chosen his new name he enrolled in a special select governmental program. His unorthodox guitar playing made the instructors put him in his own class to improve on his autodidact style of play. His style was soon dubbed “the Ranto Classic Strumming Style”.

[ [The Blank] ]
The Blank made his way to the Dick Tracy comic strip by kidnapping Dick Tracy, Jr on October 26, 1937.
The Blank drove off with his captive. "You havn't any eyes" Junior gulped. "Or mouth...or nose!" "The Blank. That's me." he said.
This grotesque figure of nothing just kidnapped Dik Tracy Junior. He also saved his life.
The Blank was the first of The Grotesques, A nickname for Dick Tracy Villians. The Blank was actually Ankle Redrum. Shotgun blasts turn him into a groteque human mutation. Donning a face colored cheesecloth, and thus the Blank was born. The Blank was a good-bad guy. Dick Tracy chased the Blank for 4 whole entire months before he was finaly unmasked on January 6, 1938.
It wasn't a pretty sight.
Ever since the Blank was unmasked there have been many copy-offs, like DC's The Question. The Blank dissapered since then.

The almost animalistically funny Public Access show that was produced in Los Angeles by Tom Miller and Mike Gurley at the turn of the Millennium. “Both men are anomalies: they have... likable personalities but each has made his reputation as a heavy spoon” (David Pauly). As a traditional sketch comedy show much of the humor revolved around a girl named Donna, a wooden stick named Larry, an alien Mask, and a large bowl of soup. "They used one of the largest bowls of soup I've ever seen. It just cracked me up. Who made that thing?" (David Pauly) Both members grew up in Saratoga, California in the Fanal Reconstruction period of the 1970's. Possibly as a result, their show ran on air longer than any other show in the history of Saratoga Public Access broadcasting.

The Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club was founded in 1962 in Toronto, Canada by Bernie Guidon. Like other motorcycle clubs of the time they were inspired by the movie "The Wild One" featuring Marlon Brando. What started out as a club of drinking, fighting young men grew to become Canada's largest and most dangerous outlaw motorcycle club. At its peak in 1978 The Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club controlled Ontario and Southwestern Quebec, and supplied LSD to other Canadian and U.S. outlaw motorcycle clubs including the Hell's Angels.
The Choice suffered a severe setback with the arrest and conviction of its leaders for drug trafficking in the late 1970s by Canadian Police. Murder convictions of other key gang leaders eventually led to a split between the Ontario and Quebec wing of the club, which was fighting a prolonged bloody war with its arch-rivals The Popeyes in eastern Montreal. The Quebec Choice joined the Chicago based Outlaws Motorcycle Club in a bid to secure more weaponery and drugs and to combat the Montreal Popeyes who had joined the Hell's Angels.
The Ontario Chapters of Satan's Choice turned a cold shoulder on the Outlaws and the Hell's Angels throughout the 1980s, and with a loose coalition of smaller clubs including the Para-Dice Riders and The Vagabonds they ruthlessly controlled Ontario until 2000, when they struck a deal to join the Hell's Angels. The deal was prompted by a bloody battle taking place across North America between several warring motorcycle club factions who had now started to court gangs in Ontario in an effort to strengthen the depleted ranks of the Quebec Hell's Angels and Bandidos. The Satan's Choice, with their lucrative Ontario business and hardcore membership secured the Hell's Angels as the supreme rulers of outlaw gangs in Canada.

Nortel’s premier ‘intelligent subversive’ was perhaps Dr Rudolph Kriegler. He initiated and led the development of optoelectronic devices – which laid the basis for the fiber-optic transmission product line that put Nortel at the heart of the Internet. Kriegler often risked his own career at times to carry out the research in the face of opposition and organizational politics.
Nortel might have ended up as a leader in fiber optics without Kriegler, but the probabilities would have been much lower without him and the body of expertise he helped to build up in the company over the 1980s and early 1990s. Rudy as he was known to all envisioned what we call the internet years before it existed. He used to say to his co-workers... "we will all want to move multimedia across fiber and soon !"
Rudy was both an artist and scientist. He prompted the development of the OC-192 laser in BNR's Lab 1...which was and is the world's fastest laser at 10 gbps. He asked his team to develop this laser at a time when the whole world said it could not be done. Rudy and his team of 'intelligent subversives' proved the world wrong. Those of us who worked with Rudy all understood that we were in the presence of a great scientist. Perhaps one of the greatest Nortel has ever seen!

Smar Jbeil is a very old village of North Lebanon. It has been the refuge of the first Maronite Patriarch Saint John Maron before heading up to Kfarhay.
According to some historians, the name is believed to be composed of three phonenican expressions:" The tombs of the kings of Jbeil". Other historians believe that the name is an old syriac name which means "Shemreho da Gbel" or The gardian of Jbeil. Smar Jbeil is definitely a Phoenician village and one of its ruins is a carving on a rock showing a Phoenician king kneeling in front on an Assyrian king paying him loyalty. The Romans too occupied this village and built in it a temple with huge pillars that lay today in ruins. However, five Roman statues wearing the typical scarf are still intact.
In the center of the village is the old church of Mar Nohra, said to be the burial place of this Lebanese saint, who was a Persian Christian missionary. Partially built with temple debris, the north side of this picturesque church has been modernized. The oldest part is the south wall, which incorporates a medieval window and sections of temple columns. The church features a typical outside stone staircase and a bell tower. The front entrance is decorated with three sculpted chains carved from a single stone, a design also found on the portal of the Hammam al Jadid in Tripoli. The remains of an earlier church stand nearby. A simple vaulted structure, one of its corners appears to be a section of a classical altar.
From the southwest of the church you can walk to a hill where the Crusader castle stands on rock-cut foundations. Smar Jbail was part of the crusader fief of Saint Montagne of the Lords of Batroun. The Crusaders built walls of bossed stone and rubble and surrounded the fortress with a rock-cut moat. Within the inner courtyard stands a central keep along whose north wall is a well preserved cistern covered by a pointed arch. The simplicity of its plan, which is similar in arrangement and appearance to the Byblos Castle, as well as the square tower, date this fortress to the early 12th century. The area around the castle is worth exploring. Oil and other presses, some in very good condition, are cut into the limestone hillside below the southwest part of the castle. This prominent rocky hilltop may have been an ancient high place or temple. In the cliffs to the north below the castle are tomb chambers and some very worn bas reliefs of standing, seated and kneeling figures that predate the castle. These reliefs, carved above the entrance of the funerary caves, are similar to those found in Ghineh or Machnaqa in Mount Lebanon or Qana in the South

University High School in Morgantown, West Virginia was opened orginially as a demonstration school in 1925 for the local university's (West Virginia University)student teachers. It had a very small student population, but kept growing over the years. In 1972, Monogalia County Board of Education bought the school from WVU and it has since seen rapid growth. In the 1990-1991 school year, there was close to 600 students attending the school, which has grown to about 1,300 today. Because the building isn't equipped for so many students, a new UHS is being built and will be finished within the next ten years. Mascot: hawk colors: red and gold principal: J. Forst

Surrounded by forest, water, animals, and lovely neighbours, it is a prime location for a family to settle. I have memories forever imbedded in the soil, rocks, fish, frogs, and flowers of Cosy Cove.

Menigheden is the fan club of I.K. Start´s football team. The fan club was started in early 2005 as the result of a partial breakup/name change from the old fan club named Tigerberget. Tigerberget was the old fan club for I.K. Start, but several members felt that the fan club was stagnant, and that new ideas and new blood was needed.
Before the 2005 season Menigheden was established on the remains of Tigerberget, and coupled with the success of I.K. Start the fan club quicly grew in membership. Tigerberget had never exceeded a thousand members, but in the first year of operations Menigheden actually had a membership of more than 2000 people.
Menigheden is always present at all of I.K. Start´s matches, most notably at home games where they are located at a seperate section called the "M-field" (Menigheden-field). The main goal for Menigheden is to support Start in every game, to support the team in any way possible.
As Norwegian fans are very influenced by the British culture, singing is the most important aspect of Menighedens work at the games. But the South-European style of Tifo is growing in popularity in Norway, and Menigheden also take part in making great "Tifo-shows" before matches. The Tifo is usually large banners that display some supportive motif of Start, and often something disheartening display of the opposition. Current internal discussions in Menigheden is to whether drums should be used to cheer the team on.
Børre Fredriksen is the current leader of Menigheden.

Ying Chow is a Chinese restaurant located in Adelaide, South Australia. It is within Chinatown, at 114 Gouger Street, Adelaide.
It is a small and extremely popular restaurant. Its food is not the run of the mill Chinese fare, but offers some interesting dishes, with a more traditional approach.
The Aniseed Tea Duck is simply sensational.
Its popularity is due to its high quality food, fast and efficient service, both of which are somewhat surprising giving the extremely humble fittings within the restaurant. Furthermore, Ying Chow offers amazing value for money, both with food and drink prices.
It is open very late, closing well past midnight on weekends. The late hours and cheap high quality food make it very attractive to workers from the hospitality trade.
Bookings are recommended, and just about compulsory during 'regular' dining hours. It is not uncommon to see several groups waiting outside for a table.

A sexual manuvuer that takes much preperation and practice to pull off without the man's partner knowing. It involves an anal sex willing partner, a penis sized funnel, a condom, baking soda, and vinnegar.
After starting the anal intercourse, the man will pull out of his partner's anus, leaving the condom in place. This would take much practice. Stealthily, insert the funnel in place of the man's penis. Pour a sizeable amount of baking soda into the condom, followed by vinnegar. The man procedes to remove the funnel, and squeeze his partner's butt cheeks together. He will then shake them about, and when questioned on what he is doing, he should reply with "I'm all shook up, uh-hu-uh" in the styling of Elvis Presley's "I'm All Shook Up".
After this, he will release his partner's buttocks and the vinnegar/baking soda will have had a chemical reaction in the condom and explode out of his partner's anus, much like a fourth grade science fair volcano. Food coloring may be added for extra effect.

REEEP - The Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership
The Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership (REEEP) is a Type 2 Partnership which arose as a consequence of the inability of participants at the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) to agree on targets for increased deployment of renewable energy and energy efficiency systems.
The International Secretariat of REEEP is based in Vienna and it is supported by seven Regional Secretariats in North America, Latin America and the Caribbean, Central and Eastern Europe, South East Asia, South Asia, East Asia, and Southern Africa. Activities in North Africa are co-ordinated through MEDREP.
The REEEP programme line was developed on the basis of nine regional consultative workshops held in 2003 and it was formally launched in London in October 2003.
REEEP seeks to stimulate accelerated adoption of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency by addressing two key aspects of service delivery in the energy sector, namely:
- policy and regulation - finance
In addition to high level collaboration among partners and other stakeholders, REEEP funds projects which are judged to provide better provision or utilisation of energy services by enabling the use of renewable energy and energy efficiency.
