Sheree Zampino is one of the most popular women who rose to popularity after marrying Hollywood superstar Will Smith. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned for her and Smith as they separated a few years into their marriage.
She got into another affair and eventually married for the second time, nonetheless. Indeed, her life is full of interesting stories that'll surely inspire and give everyone a lesson on living life.
Want to know more? If so, then read on as we'll bring to you everything there is to know about Sheree Zampino.
Early Life
Sheree Zampino was born on Nov. 16, 1967 in Schenectadu, New York, with the full name Sheree Elizabeth Zampino. Her father's name was Les Zampino who worked as an employee in a theater company. Meanwhile, her mother was a finance officer.
Her parents divorced while she was still a young kid. This resulted to Sherry moving in with her father. Since then, Sherry felt that she was into fashion even at her very young age. She brought her interest in fashion until she grew older.
Perhaps, she's just the kind of girl who's into design, art, and is more on the creative side. As soon as she graduated from high school, Zampino chose to go to fashion school. Good thing, she managed to pass the entrance exam of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, New York.
It was there where she learned more about fashion, and in the process, harnessed her skill and passion even more. But she didn't just focused solely on it as she knew she needed additional skills to monetize her passion. And so, she also studied business and went into business management courses whilst in fashion school.
Her education paved the way for the realization of her dreams. All her hard work in school bore fruit as she managed to become a successful speaker, TV personality, and cook later on. Zampino is the first wife of big-time Hollywood star Will Smith.
Her involvement in Minay TV, 2013 Do Something, and Hollywood Exes brought her to even more fame. Zampino's Hollywood career started in 2001 when she starred her first role in the movie called "Our Journey."
She received positive critical acclaim from her peers for her appearance on Hollywood Exes, a reality TV series of VH1 in 2012. Meanwhile, she also starred as herself for two episodes in a TV series called Minay TV in 2015.
Apart from that, Zampino also appeared in TV shows such as Oh Drama, The Oprah Winfrey Show, and the 2013 Do Something Award. She's currently doing small TV show and movie roles.
Marriage to Will Smith
Sheree Zampino is one of the women who grew in popularity due to their involvement, or in this case, marriage to a famous Hollywood star. Hers was being the Fresh Prince of Bel Air star, Will Smith.
Though they're not separated, their marriage still bore fruit especially in her career. This enabled her to gain a solid footing in the TV and movie industry. However, her passion, skills, and talent shouldn't be disregarded. These traits also helped her a lot in achieving success.
Zampino and Will Smith were associated with each other for years. There were even rumors that they were dating each other. However, things didn't go official until 1992 when they finally got married.
According to reports, the couple met when Smith was still shooting one of the episodes for "Fresh Prince of Bel Air." Their marriage was looking bright at first as they celebrated their individual achievements together.
Unfortunately, the couple sought legal separation as they decided to finally divorce in 1995. They were just three years into their marriage.
However, it's worth noting that the two still remained friends even if they're separated. They were even close companions and even helped each other move forward with their respective careers.
One situation which proves just this was when Zampino defended Smith in 2016 when artist Alexis Arquette shared to the public a story that Will Smith was gay.
Smith's former wife, Sheree Zampino, didn't let this pass as she swiftly came back to her ex-husband's defense. She responded with a Facebook video that clarified the real reason why she and Smith separated.
Specifically speaking, Zampino clearly stated that the reason was not because Smith was gay. According to Zampino, their separation was not caused by another individual. She specifically stated that Smitha didn't have a significant other and that he was straight before and still a straight guy now.
Furthermore, Zampino continued saying that their marriage failed because they were still so young then. They were still in their early 20's and they didn't have any time to go on with their respective duties and responsibilities as how a husband and wife should be.
Zampino said that marriage wasn't simple and that it was full of challenges they didn't expect at that age. She continued saying that Will was having a bigger name in the movie industry, while she was going the exactly opposite way.
They were worlds apart, so to speak. They also didn't have the needed apparatuses to make their marriage work, she added. She concluded her statement by saying that the factors that ended their marriage were very basic.

Married Life with Terrell Fletcher
Will Smith married Jada Pinkett Smith in 1997, just two years after his divorce with Zampino. Meanwhile, Zampino stayed unmarried for more than ten years. She married Terrel Fletcher, a famous NFL player who retired recently during that time, and has since led a life with God as a pastor.
In fact, Fletcher appeared with Zampino in "Hollywood Exes." The couple was happily married, at least initially. However, it faded a few years on until they finally separated in July 2014, with hopeless contrasts being the reason.
According to reports, Zampino had asked for financial provision from Fletcher. It wasn't clear, though, how much she got from the former San Diego Chargers running back.
Sheree Zampino Net Worth
Sheree Zampino is a multi-talented woman who's got the charisma, talent, and passion in doing things she loves doing the most. As a result, she earns a huge amount of money coming from multiple hard earned sources.
She's appeared in a number of films and TV series, one of the most notable ones being Hollywood Exes. Thanks to these, she has gained money, that can be considered "massive", by all means.
Aside from her connection with Hollywood, Zampino is also an entrepreneur as she owns a skincare company called Sheree Elizabeth LLC. She has also served as the Multi-Cultural Christian Ministry First Lady and as director of the Women on the Wall Ministries.
She has an estimated net worth of $6 million. This, however, is expected to increase significantly in the next coming years. That is, if all goes well for her company and upcoming film and TV appearances.
Children of Sheree Zampino
Zampino wasn't very lucky when it comes to love. Well, the romantic part of it, we should say. Why? It's because her two failed marriages gave her two successful kids. Zampino became pregnant a few months after marrying Smith.
It was a baby boy they named Willard Smith III, whom they called Trey Smith for short. He was born on Nov. 11, 1992.
In an interview, Zampino was asked why Trey wasn't as popular as his other half siblings, such as Jaden Smith. Zampino hastily answered by saying that Trey was raised differently and in a different home which isn't influenced that much by Hollywood and all the glitz and glamor that goes with it.
Trey just didn't like the spotlight that much, her mother said. Zampino continued by saying that Trey wasn't grounded, but he simply just had a different kind of childhoos. He wasn't also clearly introduced to the Hollywood way of life which is why he's a bit aloof to the media.
Zampino added that Trey wanted to live a genuine life, a life which was different from the acting perspectives of the movie and film industry.
Meanwhile, her marriage with Terrel Fletcher also gave birth to another child. This time, a beautiful girl named Jodie Fletcher. However, not much is known about her, not even her real birthday.
Some reports state, though, that she was born somewhere in 2007 or 2009. This is surprising especially that Zampino is known to share photos of her first born, Trey, on social media every now and then.
She even posts random photos of two other kids whom she says are her nephew and niece.
Sheree Zampino isn't very tall. In fact, she's considered as a short women as she stands only at 4 feet, 11 inches. She, however, has a fit body that can be considered as young-looking for her age. Her eye and hair color are black and has a slightly fair skin tone.

After MakeItUltra posted a promotional blog piece, I've got a very dazzling, overwhelmingly amount more of followers. ( Thank you MIU ! )
So much so, I feel slightly bashful.
Flattered,humbled..stopped short in my movement.
I know I will keep posting the same as always, but it awe-jolts my breath a little to know that some are climbing onto this raft for the first time; that more people have the potential to gather a great deal about me.
This bursted composure is initial and will pass, but to note of such impact on myself is something I knew I had to share with you.
Thank you new followers. The roots of a new happy have taken position in my heart. I look forward to sharing with you and learning the content of your mind – for that is a mighty special space to have access to.

Matthew and Joyce Walsh Family Hall of Architecture
University of Notre Dame (Indiana)
The new, classically inspired home of Notre Dame's architectural school, funded in part by a $27 million donation from the Walsh family, is a 100,000-square-foot edifice located at the south end of campus. The two-story building, surrounding a court, will include classrooms, studios, architecture library, an auditorium and workshop spaces.
The new building will enable the school to add two new graduate programs in historic preservation and real estate development. John Simpson Architects (London) serves as design architect, Stantec (Chicago) is the executive architect and the Walsh Group (Crown Point, Ind.) is the main contractor for the project. Completion expected by December 2018.
Boreham Tennis Center
University of the Ozarks (Arkansas)
This new facility will feature eight state-of-the-art lighted tennis courts, championship-grade spectator seating and a multifunctional clubhouse. The first floor of the complex will include locker rooms and facilities for concessions and storage. The second floor will have an open events space that offers a full view of the complex, which will also feature video streaming and teaching technology.
Design was by Derck and Edson Associates (Lititz, Pa.), and the contractor is East Harding Construction (Little Rock, Ark.). Play should begin by March 2017.
Innovation and Discovery Center
Ursinus College (Pennsylvania)
This $29 million building will house the Parlee Center for Science and the Common Good as well as the U-Imagine Center for Integrative and Entrepreneurial Studies.
Features will include 30- and 50-seat technology-enhanced active learning classrooms, flexible laboratories, open meeting and work spaces, and a makerspace for students to undertake original research and entrepreneurial initiatives.
Scheduled to be completed by fall 2018, the 42,500-square-foot facility is designed by Ellenzweig Associates (Boston). The new facility will also connect two major buildings, enhancing the overall campus layout.

Crime prevention and control extends well beyond police and other uniformed peace officers. The private sector plays a large role in this field, in areas as diverse as private security personnel to security consultants.
Security guards can be armed or unarmed, depending on the position. Though most learning comes from on-the-job training, a degree in criminal justice is an excellent way to advance career growth by preparing security guards with the understanding of criminal psychology and behavior along with legal ramifications.
Numerous career opportunities are available in the security field. For detailed information, degree requirements and salary ranges, simply choose a security job profile below.
The private sector has an ever-increasing demand for security of numerous types, including loss prevention, industrial security, institutional security and numerous other commercial security positions ranging from bank guard to computer security specialist.
Becoming an armored car guard is not a job for the faint of heart. Since their position involves protecting money and individuals responsible for its transit, they are required to wear bullet-proof vests.
Hotel security officers protect employees, guests and belongings. They oversee all areas of the hotel property, inside and out, from the parking lot to banquet halls and private guest rooms.
Since 9/11, airport security positions are more vital than ever. Airport security officers operate baggage and passenger screening systems and work with law enforcement to identify and apprehend questionable individuals. They provide security and protection for passengers and airline employees.

Seeds 1–2 per locule.

Genera ca. 60, species ca. 2000 (7 genera, 23 species in the flora).
The genera that make up Phyllanthaceae traditionally have been treated as Euphorbiaceae subfam. Phyllanthoideae Beilschmied. Molecular data (Angiosperm Phylogeny Group 2003; K. Wurdack et al. 2004; C. C. Davis et al. 2005; Wurdack and Davis 2009; Z. Xi et al. 2012) strongly support its monophyly and show that it is sister to Picrodendraceae (formerly treated as Euphorbiaceae subfam. Oldfieldioideae Eg. Köhler & G. L. Webster), both of which are more distant from Euphorbiaceae in the narrow sense. Drypetes, the other genus in the flora area often included in Phyllanthoideae, belongs in Putranjivaceae (for example, see Wurdack and Davis).
Breynia, Glochidion, and most Phyllanthus species exhibit phyllanthoid branching (G. L. Webster 1956–1958), in which the main stems are orthotropic, indeterminate, persistent, and (beyond the first few seedling nodes) bear only scalelike leaves, while the ultimate branches are plagiotropic, of limited growth, deciduous (in woody species), and usually bear well-developed leaves. Most species with phyllanthoid branching produce flowers only on the ultimate branchlets. Because these branchlets often fall as a unit and resemble pinnate leaves, the flowers superficially appear to be borne on the leaves. In some species of Phyllanthus, the ultimate branches are essentially leafless and flattened into strikingly leaflike cladodes; their homology with branches is clearly demonstrated by the cymules of flowers along the margins.
Phylogenetic studies using DNA sequence data show that Breynia, Glochidion, and Sauropus Blume (also with phyllanthoid branching; not present in the flora area) are each monophyletic and that all three are derived from within Phyllanthus as usually treated, making that genus paraphyletic (K. Wurdack et al. 2004; H. Kathriarachchi et al. 2005, 2006; P. Hoffmann et al. 2006). The number of sequenced species currently is too few, and the taxonomic and nomenclatural problems too numerous, to produce a robust phylogenetic classification of this alliance of about 1200 species (Kathriarachchi et al. 2006). Thus in this treatment, Breynia, Glochidion, and Phyllanthus are maintained in their traditional senses. Reverchonia, which lacks phyllanthoid branching, is also derived from within Phyllanthus (Kathriarachchi et al. 2006) and here its single species is treated as P. warnockii.
Andrachne telephioides Linnaeus, native from southern Europe and northern Africa east to India, was collected in 1880 on a ballast dump in New Jersey. In the key below, this prostrate to procumbent perennial herb would key with the Phyllanthus species that lack phyllanthoid branching. Andrachne telephioides differs from Phyllanthus by having petals (minute in the pistillate flowers), pistillodes in the staminate flowers, and styles 2-fid to the base (versus 2-fid only distally).

This top-notch panel shared important lessons about ways to use to technology, not to simply improve attorney efficiency, but to actually change the way that law firms deliver legal services.
Formal Title: Should You Create Innovative Online Legal Products for Clients?
Expert systems, document automation and other online tools have come a long way, and innovative law schools and legal aid organizations are using them to provide "self-help" legal services. Given this explosion in legal technology, we'll tackle a question looming for law firms: Is it time for firms to consider using innovative legal technologies to create online legal products and services for their clients?
See tweets at #kmpg4 .
· Michael Mills - Neota Logic
· Meredith L. Williams - Baker Donelson Bearman Caldwell & Berkowitz
· Scott Rechtschaffen - Littler Mendelson, P.C.
· Kingsley Martin - KIIAC LLC
Scott Rechtschaffen introduced the topic.
It's important to learn from failure. Littler attorneys sent 10-15 emails each day about "who knows these labor arbitrators." His group set up an (internal) database about them. It was not a good endeavor. It's best not to be guided by the attorneys. They wanted everything, not reviews of arbitrators of the arbitrations, complete with briefs. They didn't do anything, it required too much of the attorneys.
They later made a database of international employment lawyers. This one did get some use, but you had to remember where it was.
They then turned to Courtroom Insight. It creates a Yelp-like reviews for experts, judges, arbitrators, and mediators, all in one place. People who use it like it very much. Buying it created a lot less anxiety and stress.
They also have a database of 50-state comparisons with 50-60 surveys, which also includes a database of legislation and regulation. They charge clients for access to this. They've covered the cost 3x-4x.
I described the Littler CaseSmart system elsewhere.
The clients love the dashboard on the CaseSmart tool. It has a heat map, the type of charges, and the like. One client caught the impact of a minor policy issue that led to charges around the country through the
They also recently launched the Littler Healthcare Reform Advisor, a tool that runs an online questionnaire and indicates the potential penalties under Obamacare.
Buying off the shelf and adding the legal nuance
Meredith Williams showed dashboards where clients can drill in and see details about their matters. These dashboards wins over clients.
They will help map out the data collection processes for clients using their in-house eDiscovery experts.
They also have an "emerging company institute" extranet that startups are charged to access. They developed 30-40 documents that clients purchase from them and let them create documents via document assembly. They use Contract Express, the same document assembly my firm uses.
These systems stickiness with clients. A relationship partner left and the client stayed with the firm because the extranet had all the documentation they needed and used on the site.
If you try to create an app, use someone external. Baker provided an app with a quick guide to labor and employment law. They also provide compliance education at the staff level via an online service. They didn't want to have that compliance training for executives, since they wanted the attorneys in front of the executives talking to them in person.
Keeping It Simple
Martin--Simple and clear is the best way and is the hardest thing in the world.
Online client systems are the way forward. We may not get a seat at the table unless we start to produce revenue.
In our law firms we have collective experience resulting from millions of hours of experience.
His tool takes a pile of documents, decomposes them into clauses, and aggregates the clauses into one common outline. For example, in employment agreements, what clauses are required, what are optional, and which are frequent or common.
Simplification lessons also apply to the practice of law. We need to simplify and make clearer contracts and briefs that we produce.
A simplified, focused approach might put most frequent clauses up top.
He draws a lesson from Silicon Valley--"Get Going--Build something!"
Analyzing documents might start with clause elements. Organizing documents addresses document structure.
He's released a an app for a non-disclosure agreement. He completed it on the airplane ride to conference. www.kmstandards.com/kmauthor/mobile
The content is HTML, library is JQuery Mobile, presentation by ThemeRoller (lets you drag colors around when you design).
What's out there?
Baker McKenzie has some great apps on global equity. Goodwin Procter has the Founder's Workbench. OMelveny has an FCPA app. Wilson Sonsini has a term sheet generator.
Pointer & Squirrel has an "eForeclose" site allowing clients to generate foreclosure papers.
At a lower end, on the Kimball, Tirey & St. John LLP site you can start a collection case, upload documents and start the case.
This helps law firms be more efficient, because the client supplies a lot of the information lawyers need directly into the system.
How do we assess the viability of potential projects?
Leon Litigator corners you. He's assessed 2000 cases and determined 56 variables that determine the likelihood of success at trial.
His kid sister is a Google engineer who's already written the algorithm.
Always ask:
1. Is there a market for this? Who would purchase it?
2. Do we have any support in-house to build this?
3. Is there a product on-market that does something like this already?
Law firms are not product companies, and online services are products. They do spend time thinking about acquiring lateral partners. Michael Mills would start with what the business purpose is. It may be that revenue is critical.
It requires substantive infrastructure as well as technical. Online resources about substantive legal issues will decline if not maintained. Building a product is a major commitment. Will they invest the effort necessary to keep it up to date?
Martin--lawyers do want to monetize the experience that they have. The two pieces are expertise and software development.
Williams--they've had most success when they partnered with outside vendors who had the development expertise, they provided the "legal gloss."
Incentives & Maintenance
You also need the incentive systems to align. Product building is different from the billable hour. Firms may not have the right structure to incentivize attorneys to contribute to online services.
Expanded revenue fund program. Meredith has a laundry list of projects, with lists of people who would do the work. They set up client-matter numbers for the projects, people bill their time.
They get 75% of the credit, so that they have an investment in the success. The "Developers" get a coupon from the firm, they get a percentage of the sale.
Once you start handing over services to your client, you develop a real responsibility. If you can't sustain it, it's better not starting at all.
Attorneys regularly churn out articles for potential clients. If they are willing to do that, shouldn't they be willing to give content to developers who can productize it?
A reputation for being innovative doesn't help. What helps is delivering value that helps clients in very specific areas. Helping lawyers gain business in particular areas, capturing some of the business development activities and redirecting that energy, is useful. It's more useful to clients because it's direct service.
Clients are coming to firms are asking for things at lower cost or for free. Online products are one way to do that.
Does it skew the analysis when a client asks you to develop an on-line service? Maybe, if it's a high-level client as a percentage of revenue.
Development of online products should be considered a part of the essential business of law firms. They are perceived as completely different worlds from traditional concerns like practice area development or opening offices.
The first stage involves some benefits to "first movers."
A second level is systems that create client "stickiness."
The third level is to move to revenue generating services. The big concern is how to scale. Each app currently used is focused on a very narrow area.
How do you take the Founder's Toolkit and move to licensing?
Michael has seen great examples of client stickiness developing from building excellent online services. It makes clients less portable.
"Our employees are so used to what you have, we don't want to replicate that somewhere else."
How do you assess a market?
Market research is an outside expertise for most lawyers, but there are people in firms who do that kind of work. You probably have good market research people. There are also services you can subscribe to.
The trick is how to estimate revenues or sales on something that hasn't been sold before. The business analysis looks for competitors.
They'll start small, offering something to a client and seeing the interest. You have to be willing to pull the plug.
The Shark Tank is a great way to hone your idea. Think of standing in front of the people who will pay for it. "Kawasaki, the art of the "
The questions Meredith gets are around the economics.
Who does it?
Williams--She brings together developers, IT Project Management people, a representative from the attorney group that's asking for it, and a knowledge management attorney. They may also bring the marketing team to the table. They keep the lawyer population to just a few people. Lawyers tend to add unnecessary bells and whistles.
Kingsley--He's been able to involve clients as well. Develop in an agile matter. Set parameters, a lot of things will take care of themselves. Set quality metrics for what you aim to do. For instance at Cassels they set a target for a level of plain English with a specific metric. It really hones the result.
Develop the "minimal sustainable product."
Mills--The front end of these systems are pretty simple. There are mock-up and prototyping tools that let you set up something, and start showing it to clients.
Insourced or Outsourced?
Williams--Do we have the expertise? They don't with app development.
Time constraints also come in. Internal resources may have significant internal demands already.
Mills--Most projects need aspects of both. The Contract Express tools, for instance, can't be reproduced by a law firm. Law firms are talking to clients all the time, and may be good at getting feedback from clients.
Which Idea? What if something that looks better comes along?
Martin--Kawasaki would say, set you milestones and stick to them.
Williams--Don't be distracted by the shiny object (like the dogs in "Up" distracted by squirrels). Think about what you might be losing in what you've already invested. The economics come into play. Look at it as a business decision, not a technical one.
Products and projects have constituencies.
How do you convince partners that they should invest in the future?
Martin--The business of law has one of the lowest budgets for research & development of any industry. What if law firms spent 0.25% of revenue on these new services?
He's tried to convince them that this is an extraordinary opportunity. You could take advantage of the growing tsunami. It's hard to pick the winners. He admits his pitch didn't work.
Mills--It is a year-to-year decision, and the way firms are organized financially. Firms do make huge decision like opening an office, these are small change by comparison.
Williams--It's easier today because they've had success with retaining and obtaining clients.
She scenarios out how it works. She spells out what will happen if we invest or if we don't. Boards are bottom-line driven.
Rechtschaffen--There's a false assumption that an hour spent on direct client service is more assured than an hour spent on product development. Each hour is speculative, albeit in different ways.
What's the future of online services? Will law firms be the providers of online legal services?
Williams--As long as a product is viable and has a legal spin, then we have an area we're going to firmly hold onto.
Martin--The future must involve the delivery of online legal services. Law firm websites will enable the delivery of legal services.
Buyers don't modify a market. They vote with their money, but they pick winners. A lot of this will be driven by vendors.
LexMachina is analyzing and creating data around all patent litigation.
Mills-Some publishers are starting to behave like lawyers. Users don't want search results any more, they want answers.
eDiscovery is an online service. It's managed in the cloud by people who for the most part work directly with clients. Why shouldn't the rest of legal services delivery follow?
Williams--If you aren't in this space, you need to be in this space. The biggest request from clients is for these type of services?
Martin--Online technology will disrupt the $260-270 billion market. Institutional VCs are showing some interest in changing the market.
Take technology you've used to create reputation or stickiness and move into products.

Last night my husband was playing Scrabble on his cell phone. My son, who is recently in to word searches, found the "word search" game on Daddy's phone and wanted to play. To make things a little messy, I have an actual word search app on my phone. So my husband spent a few minutes trying to explain the difference between a word search and Scrabble. Our son thought this new word search game was "pretty awesome" and wanted to play. At one point, my husband said something along the lines of "this is the reason why you do reading and spelling in school, so you can play games like this". I came back with the inevitable that's not the only reason to learn reading and spelling. To which he responded that without the reading and spelling a person wouldn't be able to play the game. There's a lot more to lose out on besides playing Scrabble if you can't read or spell. I'm a little late, since National Literacy Month was in September, but, like everything else we celebrate for a month (breast cancer awareness, write a business plan, and so many other things), the celebration should last throughout the year. September might be National Literacy Month, but that doesn't deter people from reading and writing in the other 11 months of the year. The good thing: my son loves books – he can't wait to go to the library every week on Wednesday to get a new book. Some things to celebrate this month (that have to do with reading/writing): dyslexia awareness, reading group, and right-brainers rule.

Like most chess fans one of my absolute favorite tournaments to follow is the FIDE World Cup! The upsets, the tiebreaks, the must-win situations, the armaggedon, it's truly one of the most exciting events in chess. This year seems especially hard to predict as the tournament is stronger than most years, with most of the top-10 playing, including a rare sighting of Magnus Carlsen & Viswanathan Anand!
If you'd like, you can check out my full bracket here. I typically went with experience wherever I could, and picked only a few upsets as I feel like many of the favorites are going to bring their A-game. Especially Magnus — assuming he's in good health I just don't see anyone getting in his way to reach the top. I mean when was the last time Magnus even lost a tiebreak match?
A few highlights:
- I think Magnus vs. MVL is nearly a lock for the Quarterfinals. Both players are exceptionally strong in rapid, and only Grischuk may pose problems for MVL.
- I have Andreikin defeating Aronian in Round 3, but I'll be rooting for Levon regardless. In fact, this could easily be his year.
- Although I picked Ding Liren to defeat Kovalenko in Round 2, this could easily be a big upset, as Kovalenko crossed 2700 previously and is known to be an excellent rapid/blitz player.
- A likely Round 3 match-up between Kramnik and Ivanchuk will likely bring the house down, I almost picked 'Chucky' here but Kramnik tends to bring it during the World Cup!
- It was hard to choose Nakamura over both So and Caruana, but he is the better rapid/blitz player and when he's in form, he seems unstoppable.
And here are my answers to the Chess^Summit Sweepstakes:
Who wins the 2017 FIDE World Cup?
Magnus Carlsen
Who is the Runner Up?
Hikaru Nakamura
Which American player goes the farthest?
Hikaru Nakamura. Caruana and So are obviously reasonable picks here as well.
Which Russian player goes the farthest?
Sergey Karjakin. This is a bit of a hedge, since I tend to underestimate Karjakin in most events, but he seems to have an iron grip on doing well in World Cups. It was very hard to choose him over Kramnik!
Which Chinese player goes the farthest?
Ding Liren. Wei Yi or Li Chao could easily take this spot, but I feel that Ding is the most solid of the group. Yu Yangyi is another contender.
Do all the top 8 seeds win 2-0 in the first round?
Yes. I mean maybe they won't, but I have a feeling we're going to see some very determined players at the top.
Which player will score the most draws?
Viswanathan Anand. I'm really not sure how Anand will perform here, but it seems likely that he's going to be risk-averse and take his chances as they come in the rapid/blitz.
Which player will score the most wins?
Maxime Vachier-Lagrave. One of the hottest players right now, I can see MVL being in a lot of must-win situations and pulling them out!.
Top rated player below 2700?
Ruslan Ponomariov. A great value, Pono has been 2700+ for most of his career and is a fantastic rapid player. Look for him to potentially make a deep run. Although I picked Harikrishna to advance after their encounter in Round 2, I wouldn't be surprised to see Pono pull the upset.
Top Junior
Wei Yi. He seems like a heavy favorite, since other juniors will have to play up in Round 3 (or before) while he plays down until Round 4.
Do any former World Champions qualify for Candidates 2018 through the World Cup?
No. Although Kramnik is one of the favorites and always performs well, somehow I doubt it with So, Caruana, Nakamura, MVL, Aronian, Karjakin and of course Carlsen all in the mix.
Does Carlsen make the top 4?
Enter the sweepstakes now with your 2017 World Cup predictions!

As the Valentine's Day rush kicks in, the Code Compliance Division of the Environmental Services Department (ESD) reminds the public wanting to set up temporary "pop-up" shops that it is against City ordinance to sell anything on sidewalks, parkways, streets, street medians or any public right-of-ways.
In order to sell goodies like chocolates, flowers and bears on lots or other property, vendors must have a permit.
A vendor's license, temporary placement permit and permission from a property owner are required.
These permits may be obtained at the One Stop Shop, 811 Texas Avenue. Placement permits are only good for the actual address shown on the permit.
Vendors cannot sell across the street or in adjacent lots.
Code Compliance Officers can take action if a vendor is operating without a permit.

text: Duhaime's Law Dictionary Delegatus Non Potest Delegare Definition: Latin: a delegate cannot delegate. One of the pivotal principles of administrative law: that a delegate cannot delegate. A person to whom an authority or decision-making power has been delegated to from a higher source, cannot, in turn, delegate again to another, unless the original delegation explicitly authorized it.For example, an attorney given legal authority in a power of attorney cannot, of their own volition, delegate the exercise of that authority without the consent of the person who granted the power of attorney.The civil law jurisdiction of Quebec, which has taken to referring to a power of attorney by the term mandate, the Civil Code 2010, at §2140 reiterates delegatus non potest delegare:"The mandatary is bound to fulfill the mandate in person unless he is authorized by the mandator to appoint another person to perform all or part of it in his place." The maxim is used in constitutional law as described in Mudarri v State by Justice Hunt of the Court of Appeals of Washington (footnote 2):"The delegation doctrine prohibits delegation of legislative authority to a non-legislative branch of government. The Legislature is prohibited from delegating its purely legislative functions."In the context of municipal law, note these words adopted by Justice Locke of Canada's Supreme Court in Vic Restaurant v Montreal:"The exercise of a discretionary power vested in a (municipal) council cannot, in the absence of statutory authority, be delegated. A council may, however, delegate to an officer or functionary merely ministerial matters...."Discretion confided to council ... cannot be delegated to others, as for example, requiring an applicant for a licence to get the consent of certain persons." Further, in Vic Restaurant, Justice Cartwright deferred to these words:"The fundamental rules that a municipal legislative body cannot delegate legislative power to any administrative branch or official, or to anyone, that it cannot vest arbitrary or unrestrained power or discretion in any board, official or person, or in itself, and that all ordinances must set a standard or prescribe a rule to govern in all cases coming within the operation of the ordinance and not leave its application or enforcement to ungoverned discretion, caprice or whim are fully applicable to the administration and enforcement of ordinances requiring licenses or permits and imposing license or permit fees or taxes."Administrative, fact-finding, discretionary and ministerial functions, powers and duties as to licenses, permits, fees or taxes in connection therewith can be and usually are delegated by ordinances to boards and officials. But as stated in the preceding section, any discretion vested in them must be made subject to a standard, terms and conditions established by the licensing ordinance, which must govern the board or official in granting or denying the license or the permit."REFERENCES:Mudarri v. State, 196 P. 3d 153 (2008)Vic Restaurant Inc. v.

Sonam Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Swara Bhasker, Shikha Talsania are coming up with an all-girls madcap film, Veere Di Wedding, directed by Shashanka Ghosh and produced by Rhea and Ekta Kapoor. The buzz around the movie is super positive and everything from the trailer, music to the first rushes of the film has had masses talking about this project. Also, this film is supposed to be Kareena's comeback vehicle after maternity break and therefore the entire hullabaloo about it is sort of justified. The film has a coming of age plot and features four friends and their lives. All four women are going all out promoting the movie. At the recent promotional event, they were asked if the movie was made with four men who would they cast in it. Okay so the names that popped were Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Arjun Kapoor and Abhay Deol among others. But you should know the comments the two Kapoor girls gave while they said that they wanted to cast Ranbir.
While Sonam's first choice to play Kareena's character was Hrithik, Bebo replied that Ranbir Kapoor would essay her role. Sonam's report to this was mind-blowing. She said, "Ranbir? Haan, for sure! He'll be running." Is she hinting at the Kapoor scion's Casanova real life image? Whoa, we sure wanted to hear what the Sanju star wants to say about this. Also, we know there is some history between Sonam and Ranbir so we are not even surprised that she said this.
Veere Di Wedding is a pretty personal film for all four actresses and we want this film to do well at the box office simply because inspired by its success, more women oriented films will be made.

UPS Inc. will increase its over-the-maximum limits and the oversize pallet-handling surcharge to $650 from $500 beginning June 4.
The Atlanta-based parcel-delivery company said in a statement to Transport Topics it is raising the rate because many of the items it is being asked to ship are not suited for its small-package network and instead should be moved through its UPS Freight network.
This is the second increase in less than a year for over-the-maximum limit items such as big-screen TVs, beds and mattresses, and appliances. In December, UPS hiked the rate to $500 from $150.
"They [UPS] don't want these big, bulky packages in their networks. Their facilities are just not designed to handle this type of volume, and they can't make it clearer," said John Haber, CEO of logistics consultant Spend Management Experts in Atlanta.
UPS' announcement applies to packages with an actual weight of more than 150 pounds, or that exceed 108 inches in length or a total of 165 inches in length and girth combined.
The U.S. Department of Commerce said that in 2017 consumers spent nearly $453.5 billion on online purchases, up 16% from $391 billion in 2016. With the dramatic increase in e-commerce, analysts say consumers are becoming more comfortable with buying larger items such as furniture and appliances online.
Furniture sales are emerging as a major growth area in e-commerce, rising 18% in 2015, second only to grocery, according to financial investment firm Barclays. Of $70 billion in U.S. furniture sales, some 15% is generated online, according to IBISWorld.

In 2017, Sears announced a partnership with Amazon.com to sell its Kenmore appliances online. In some cases, that means washers, dryers and refrigerators are being delivered to homes in the same truck that is carrying smaller, traditional packages. Those trucks usually are operated by one driver, and larger, heavier items can slow a driver's productivity. "A lot of it is residential delivery," Haber said.
Many white glove and last-mile delivery companies are specializing in this growing part of the market, but analysts say the rapid expansion of online shopping is putting more pressure on the entire delivery system as customers expect their purchases to arrive the next day, or even sooner.
"[UPS] and FedEx both have been taking efforts to make sure that their networks are receiving and handling the right freight at the right price," said R.W. Baird Analyst Ben Hartford in an interview with Transport Topics. "As [business-to-consumer] has evolved, there has been a trend to these very irregularly sized, oversized packages finding their way into the parcel network, which it's not designed to handle."
FedEx Corp. has not announced if it will match the UPS price increase.
Also in June, UPS will introduce a shipping charge correction audit fee, which will be assessed if the average shipping charge correction in an invoice week is $5 or more. The fee is being implemented because some shippers use incorrect dimensions when creating labels on shipments.
UPS said it wants to stop the practice in which some shippers enter a smaller size for a package weighing a few pounds but actually is much larger and should be rated at a higher level for domestic ground shipments. If UPS did not re-rate the package, it could save shippers a substantial amount of money. By demanding an audit fee, UPS is sending a signal to shippers that packages must be labeled correctly, and if they are not, they will pay an additional charge.
UPS Inc. ranks No. 1 on the Transport Topics Top 100 list of the largest North American for-hire carriers. FedEx Corp. ranks No. 2.

Do you speak Czech?
Our language, Czech , historically also known as Bohemian (lingua Bohemica in Latin) is one of the Slavic languages . To be more precise Czech is West Slavic language and it stands close to two other members of this language family - Slovak and Polish. Our language has developed in the medieval period. To the standardization of Czech orthography contributed siginificantly Czech reformer Jan Hus at the beginning of the 15.century. Much later , during so called National revival movement (starting at the end of 18.century) a new modern Czech was born.
Our orthographic system uses standart Latin letters. To some letters we add a caron (háček) for expressing sounds which are foreign to Latin language. The accute accent is used for long vowels. Czech alphabet consists of 42 letters.
For Czech is typical to use several consonants together without any vowels in between. This makes the pronounciation extremely difficult. Here are some examples : zmrzlina (ice cream), Vltava (name of Prague river), brzy (soon).
But it is not only Czech pronounciation which may be seen so perplexing to foreigners. It´s also our grammar. Czech has seven cases. And a noun changes its ending in each case. Imagine you learn a new Czech word, for example : kniha (book). But kniha is is only a form of the first case. The other cases of this word are these: knihy, knize, s knihou etc. So when you seen these words in a sentence you may not understand that it is the word you already know.
But I have good news for you. You don´t need to learn Czech! Prague is one of the most visited holiday destinations in Europe. There are over eight million of foreigners coming every year to our City.Lot of locals are involved in travel industry. That´s why almost everybody speaks some English, shops have English speaking assistants and restaurants have menus in various languages. Of course, it is always appreciated by locals to hear visitors speaking some Czech. If you enter a shop you can greet them : Dobrý den (Good day) , if you want to thank to somebody you say: Diekuji (thank you). And among friends you can use more familiar greeting Ahoi written Ahoj in Czech (Hi as well as bye).
Ahoj and see you in Prague ! (btw Prague is in Czech called Praha)

Biology and courses related to biology—from anatomy (and memorizing all of those bones!) to microbiology (especially challenging) to microbiology (even more challenging) to the dreaded physiology class can all be highly challenging courses. Many students do not know there are many sources of help you can seek both on campus/school and online. Here are five great ways to find assistance with biology.
Your instructor is a great resource to help you with individual topics or problems in your class you are having trouble with. Schedule an appointment with them during their office hours and have your questions written down carefully to zone in on these and still have time for your instructor's explanations during your appointment time (which are typically one half an hour to an hour).
YouTube and Google itself can offer scads of tutorials or help you with specific problems you are having in biology. You can Google specific keywords for help you need—like "need help understanding human endocrine system" on Google or YouTube, which will yield results with lectures and videos from professors who can help.
Help at school can be a wonderful way to go. Biology department secretaries can direct you toward tutors who are hired through the biology department to help students, if your school has this resource. Ask your teacher first—they will know of all resources available for their students.
Online biology tutors can be a great way to go as well. When doing your homework, star or highlight in some fashion any questions that are truly stumping and you'll be able to zone right in on these issues during your tutoring hour or hours and you won't rack up so many charges.
Homework helpers and freelancers can be great help for students with an extremely hard course load or students who work a lot but still want to succeed in school, enabling you to concentrate on studying for all your tests (including biology, as you have to take these yourself. You can seek biology homework helpers or biology freelance writers to help you write research papers and finish homework quickly in biology. If biology is not your major, hiring help can be even smarter. If you are an English major, for example, biology won't be so important to you later, right? And, if so, seeking help with homework is even smarter—leaving you time to focus on your English-related work and really concentrate your efforts on studying works of literature more closely and writing great essays—in this case, sure, you can dole out some of the busywork to someone. Homework helpers and freelance biology, science, writers or medical writers and biology homework helpers for homework, can be a great way to go.
Whatever you choose, there are tons of resources at your disposal—you merely have to look a little.

Brotherly Love
Shoftim (Deuteronomy 16:18-21:9 )
In the event that a set of witnesses is found to be lying and conspiring through the testimony of a second set of witnesses who claim that the first set were in a different location at the time of the alleged incident, the court punishes the first set by inflicting upon them the punishment they would have brought upon the defendant through their testimony (Deut. 19:19). Rashi writes that this law only applies in the event that their conspiracy is discovered before the defendant is punished. If he has already been killed as a result of their testimony, they are no longer to be put to death.
In his commentary on the Talmud (Makkos 5b), Rashi explains that this law is derived from the Torah's wording, "as he conspired to do to his fellow." A person is only considered one's fellow as long as he is alive. Once he has been put to death, he is no longer called one's fellow, and this law is no longer applicable.
The Ritva questions Rashi's derivation by pointing out that the Torah uses the word "fellow" in reference to the dead both when discussing the mitzvah of yibum (Deut. 25:6-7) and in reference to Nadav and Avihu after their deaths (Leviticus 10:4).
The Rashash (Sanhedrin 10a) defends Rashi's explanation by suggesting that the word has two different connotations: a familial relative, and a "brother" with whom one is united through a common obligation in mitzvot. The difference between them is that while the former is appropriate after death, which doesn't negate a familial connection, the latter is only applicable as long as both parties are alive, as the Talmud (Shabbos 30a) teaches that a person becomes exempt from mitzvot after he dies.
In light of this explanation, it is perfectly appropriate for the Torah to use the expression "fellow" in conjunction with the mitzvah of yibum, which applies only to a person's brother. This term is also fitting to be used in association with the deceased Nadav and Avihu when discussing them with their cousins Mishael and Eltzaphan, as this bond wasn't broken through death.
Our verse, however, is discussing the laws of conspiring witnesses and their scheme to falsely punish "their brother," the defendant. Since there is no familial relationship between the parties, it can only be referring to their common obligation in mitzvot. If the verse refers to the defendant as their brother, this law can only be applicable when he has yet to be punished and is still alive, thus providing a clear source for the ruling of the Talmud in Makkos, exactly as Rashi explained.
* * *
In listing the people who are permitted to return home from the battlefront, the Torah includes one who is afraid and weak-hearted (Deut. 20:8). Rashi explains that this refers to a person who is fearful that the sins which are in his hand will cause him to die in the battle. It is difficult to understand the use of this peculiar expression. In what way is it possible for sins to be in a person's hand more than they are in his heart or soul?
Further, one of the examples given (Talmud - Menachos 36a) of such is a sin is a person who speaks between putting the tefillin on his arm and placing the tefillin on his head. Since this isn't from the more severe sins which require Yom Kippur to effect forgiveness, why doesn't he merely confess and repent his sin, which will effect immediate forgiveness and allow him to remain and fight?
Rabbi Shalom Schwadron suggests that the Sages specifically referred to the sin as being "in his hand" to hint that he has yet to relinquish his improper actions and is still figuratively holding on to them. The reason that he is unable to simply repent his actions is that he doesn't want to! Nevertheless, although he is unwilling to admit the error of his ways and correct them, he is still intellectually cognizant of their impropriety and therefore fears the consequences of placing himself in the danger of war.
Although he recognizes that his actions are inappropriate and could lead to his death, he is still unable to release them from his hand and properly correct his ways due to the tremendous force of habit. As we begin the difficult work of honestly evaluating ourselves and attempting to improve and grow throughout the month of Elul, the first step is to understand that one of the greatest weapons in the yetzer hara's arsenal is the power of habit, a recognition which will allow us to loosen our grips and completely release the sins from our hands.
* * *
When a corpse is found in the field, the elders of the nearest city are required to bring a heifer to a valley and slaughter it with an axe (Deut. 21:4). They must then announce (21:7) that they didn't spill the blood of the deceased.
Rashi quotes the Talmud (Sotah 45b), which explains that the Sages clearly aren't suspected of cold-blooded murder, but rather they must testify that they didn't see this wayfarer leaving their city and allow him to continue without escorting him and providing him food. In what way would their providing a traveler with food protect him from a would-be murderer?
The Malbim answers that their declaration refers not to the victim but to the murderer. If they allowed him to leave their community without giving provisions for his journey, he may have been forced to murder to acquire food, and they bear partial responsibility for his actions.
The Maharal (Chiddushei Aggadah - Sotah 45b) explains that when a person is part of a larger community, he is able to benefit from their accumulated merits. This may protect him even if his own merits are insufficient. Escorting him on the beginning of his journey and giving him food allows him to maintain his link to the community even when he is traveling on his own.
The Ibn Ezra suggests that if the murderer sees his intended victim being escorted by the community, he will be afraid to attack somebody who has so many friends who could take revenge against him.
The Darkei Mussar questions this explanation, as the mitzvah of escorting a guest applies only to the first four cubits (6-8 feet) of his journey, and perhaps the murderer only saw his victim after this time. Instead, he answers that if the hosts properly performed the mitzvah of hosting and escorting their guest, an angel would have been created as a result of the mitzvah which would protect the traveler on his journey.
Finally, the Alter of Kelm explains that if the townsmen escort the guests and provide him with food, he will feel important and cared about. His increased self-confidence will allow him to fight against attackers with greater strength and to successfully fend off potential killers.

Hi everybody!!!__________________
I would like to inform everybody who is looking on this site, about a project in the north of Brazil. That helps the poor kids who live in the favela " Morro da Vitoria". i worked for this project in three month and i really liked it. and thats why i want to inform you and others that are thinking of traveling to Brazil, and might be interested in to do some volonteer work.
It all started in the Autum of 2003, when the news that a child died of hunger in a shelter in a Favela in the north of Brazil, in the state of CEARA. This event got alot of attention both in Brazil and out side of Brazil. This single event made a deep impact on the people in Fortaleza/CEARA and couple of friends from Sweden,Finland and Brazil started the organisation called PADC (wich stands for "Projeto Amigos da comunidade" and means "Comunity Friends"), to help the Favela "Morro da Vitoria" were the tragic event happened.
The group consists only of volunteers and they have alot of projects planned for the favela "Morro da Vitoria" to give it´s people a better living enviroment, a future education and a school, and more. Right now "Morro da Vitoria" have 120 kids that PADC works to help.
What would you do as a volonteer??
you would participating in planing different projects on the office of PADC. You would work up in the favela together with other volunteers, and you would also study Portuguese with a privete teacher. And if you would have some own idees they are always happy to listen to you.
So if you are interested to work as a volunteer in the north of Brasil, were it´s always hot, nice beaches and clear water. and also very close to one of the top ten beaches in the world (according to lonely planet) called Jericoacoara.

I have read with interest you message, since it is many yeras I am working in Salvador de Bahia, in Mata Escura favela.
Actually, I do not trust very much in organisations that ask for money for allowing you to help people... but of course it dependes on the amount required.
What I would suggest to anyone who would like to do such a travel as volonteer to try to be informed on the projects he will be working on and on which are the public or private organisations concerned.
It is terrible to sayu, but there are too many wicked people making money out of the terrible situation of brasilian children...

Get Back On Track With Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Overwhelming debt can be the result of a lost job, car accident or family emergency. No matter the reason, you may need a solution when debt payments become unmanageable. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can be a sensible financial solution to repay creditors. It is a long-term plan to help you get back on track with your finances. At Martinez Law Firm, LLC, our bankruptcy lawyer can help walk you through the process of filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
A Financial Plan For The Future
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is an alternative to Chapter 7 bankruptcy; it allows you to reorganize your debts in a more manageable fashion. At the end of your payment plan, the remaining debts will be discharged. Your circumstances will determine the length of the plan, but it will never be longer than five years.
Just like in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you will be protected from any direct contact by creditors during your payment plan. This can be a huge relief for those facing calls and letters every day. During your plan, you will make one payment per period and that payment will be distributed out to individual creditors by a third party.
Benefits Of Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
One of the most significant benefits of Chapter 13 is that you may keep most of your property, rather than liquidating it. People can generally keep their homes and vehicles. Under Chapter 13, you are safe from foreclosure proceedings and may even cure delinquent mortgage and vehicle payments over time.
Another benefit of Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that it has a shorter impact on your credit report. Chapter 13 is shown on your credit report for seven years while Chapter 7 remains for 10 years. This can be important for individuals who need a healthy credit score for housing, credit cards or a new vehicle.

Our experienced bankruptcy attorney can help you determine if Chapter 13 bankruptcy is the best answer for you. Se habla español. Contact our office in Lakewood, Colorado, today for a free consultation at 720-889-3355 or schedule an appointment online.

When I first started blogging years ago, I made a list of my favorite bloggers and why I was so inspired by them. Cara Loren has always been one of my favorite inspirations to look up to as I continue on this blogging journey! When I saw she created a shop, I was thrilled to be able to see some of her hand picked items. Recently, I was able to get in touch with the Cara Loren Shop to collaborate for this post, and I am thrilled! When I saw this oversized tee, I knew it was the one that I wanted to do for this post.
In the past year, I have been grateful enough to do a lot of traveling, and I have been to all three of these places on this top and more. Its exciting for me to have this shirt as like a "check box" of places I have been to! & it can be a check list of places you can go to!
Head on over to the Cara Loren Shop & my all time favorite shop for these rocking leggings (I literally wear these with everything in my wardrobe).

At a time when newspapers and traditional news media are facing an alarming decline, the black sheep of the family has been bucking the trend. And they're doing it by attracting the most sought-after and elusive audience: 20- and 30-somethings.
For the past two decades, Vice Media – the magazine, website, film production company, record label and publishing house – has managed to surprise, repulse, shock and entertain with niche, pop culture stories. But more recently, Vice has been making headway with its investigative news content – gaining access to some of the world's most dangerous environments through a rough-and-ready, DIY, cowboy style of video journalism.
The debate rages about who exactly the new millennials are and what they want (are we civic-minded or selfish; evolved or immature?). We do know that rather than buying the paper or watching the six o'clock news, the younger generation is using Twitter and other social media to curate their own news feed on their own time.
As a result, competition for online readership is intense, and slick video content is becoming increasingly vital for attracting eyeballs. Top players like the New York Times are investing in skillfully produced videos, an area in which Vice Media flourishes.
Vice generates, on average, 60 minutes of video content per day. And its editors have made a science out of obscure and enticing headlines with recent titles like: "I Escaped Death in an Egyptian Police Van but Witnessed an Attempted Rape" and "Meet the Gay Russian Teenager Using Twitter to Combat Homophobia." This past April, Vice and HBO premiered a documentary TV series – an investigative news show that covers the underbelly of culture in places around the world, with hosts that could easily be mistaken for your local bartender rather than your typical TV reporter.
Vice's recent growth has been stunning. In 2013, Vice.com was visited by 15 million unique readers a month, the majority of which were between the ages of 26 to 30. Their visibility continues to grow – as do their profits. With huge injections of money from advertising giants looking to capitalize on their success, Vice continues to offer a free magazine that has circulation in 28 countries, a website with free online video content, and a YouTube channel that has over 3.2 million subscribers.
Meanwhile, major Canadian newspapers are bleeding, forced to shed staff through lay-offs, payouts, and the closing down of their foreign bureaus. Without their own reporters on the ground, editors for these major newspapers are forced to rely on independent (often underpaid and uninsured) freelancers to get their stories. When that proves to be too expensive or time consuming, they use stories that come straight from news wires like Reuters, instead of maintaining exclusive content and breaking the news themselves.
The financial crunch felt by these publications has also meant that in the past year, the Toronto Star, the Globe and Mail and the National Post, are among the growing number of news websites who have elected to introduce pay-walls, limiting free access to their online content by charging subscription fees, and creating another hurdle in the race to gain young readership.
What's Vice's secret? Simple: they do news differently. Vice's informal, off-the-cuff form of "immersive" journalism, with its accessible language and bizarre content, exists in sharp contrast to the dry, stilted style of a traditional news storytelling. Vice reporters survey the scene to draw out the most peculiar, funny and often horrifying stories that major media cannot or simply do not bother to cover. Highly-publicized recent examples include videos like the "Basketball Diplomacy" featuring Dennis Rodman and North Korean "supreme leader" Kim Jong-un, and "Chinese Cockblock" about China's one-child policy.
The credibility of Vice's content and journalistic approach will continue to be debated. But its growing influence and reach shows no signs of waning. For now, Vice holds the attention of the youngest generation – a powerful asset within an industry where the future is very uncertain. Like it or not, this black sheep is getting a lot of attention.

Wenge is a wood which is increasingly gaining more followers in Lutherie. It started being very used in necks and fingerboards, but nowadays it's also used in other parts of the instrument since luthiers have discovered its great acoustic qualities.
Wenge is a rigid, stable and strong wood which provides warm low tones and medium tones very focused. As all hard, dense and heavy woods, Wenge gives to your instrument a fantastic resonance and a brighter sound. Furthermore, Wenge reduces the highest hints in a very similar way to Tulipwood.
Discover the beauty and the quality of Wenge sides for Classic Guitar in Maderas Barber.
BOTANIC NAME: Milettia laurentii.
COMMON NAMES: Wengue, Panga-Panga
ORIGIN: Central Africa
DESCRIPTION: Density 830 kg/m3. Heartwood is medium brown, sometimes with a reddish or yellowish hue, with nearly black streaks. Upon application of a wood finish the wood can become nearly black. Grain is straight, with a very coarse texture. Low natural luster.
RECOMMENDATIONS Can be difficult to work with hand and machine tools. Blunts tool edges. Sands unevenly due to differences in density between light and dark areas. Very large pores can be difficult to fill if a perfectly smooth/level finish is desired.
DRYING: Slow drying speed. Low risk of deformations.
USES: Guitar fingerboards, bridges, headplates, backs and sides. Bodies for electric and bass guitars.
