The former manager of young sensational Kumawood actress and musician, Yaa Jackson, is not a happy man at the moment.
Okyeame Akwadaa Nyame, as the former manager is known, has decried Jackson's move to sign for a new record label when she already had a running contract with him.
Nyame said he felt sidelined and disrespected by Yaa after he invested so much to bring her into the limelight.

This was gathered by YEN.com.gh in a video making rounds on social media.
Earlier, we reported how Jackson landed a juicy deal with B Magic Empire owned by Ghanaian footballer Boakye Yiadom.
For the benefits, she was given a brand new saloon car and an undisclosed amount of money which YEN.com.gh learnt is a huge amount.
All these she never got under her former management.
Perhaps, Yaa was moved by these benefits making her overlook her former record label to join B Magic Empire.

But Nyame has lamented the turn of events saying the Tear Rubber singer is an ingrate who has made his investment go down the drain.
According to him, he discovered Yaa and nurtured her music career to the point that she has become popular.
He then rained curses on her, saying she would never be able to make hit songs under her new management.
"For Yaa Jackson to get a hit song under B Magic Empire will be synonymous to building castles in the air – it'll be impossible!" Nyame cursed.

Meanwhile, the father of the young musician had earlier said he supports his daughter's way of dress and grooming.
According to him, she was acting under instructions for fame, and called on Ghanaians to desist from overly criticising her.
Yaa was also in the news recently when she was mocked for not knowing the meaning of CRS.

IPEG Guidelines
The IPEG recently presented updated guidelines summarising the requirements for the recording and computerised evaluation of pharmaco-EEG and pharmaco-sleep studies in man. These guidelines provide clear and concise recommendations enabling the standardisation of both the experimental conditions and the data processing approaches, thereby promoting a framework aimed at facilitating the comparison of studies across laboratories, a crucial aspect especially in the context of drug development programmes. Ultimately, this standardisation will enable the pooling of data which is a requirement for sufficiently powering the validation of novel analytical algorithms and the detection of EEG-based biomarkers.

Pharmaco-Sleep: Neuropsychobiology 2013;67:127-167

On May 5, 2017, Robert Traba delivered a lecture "What Do Neighbors Remember About Each Other? Polish-German Experience with Ukraine in the Background."
The lecture focused on the mechanism of constructing collective memory in bilateral relations. What do nations choose in their past to "discover" and develop their traditions and why? The lecture and the discussion will be based on the results of one of the largest European projects on memory "Polish-German Memorial Sites." In 2007-2015, it engaged 117 scholars from 6 countries, and resulted into a nine volume publication. 90% of shared memorial sites are perceived absolutely differently in Poland and in Germany. Why is it so? Is this a universal experience? Where is the place for Ukraine in the bilateral memorialization of their own past by Poles and Germans?
Discussant: Vasyl Rasevych – a historian, a public intellectual, a researcher at the Center for Urban History.
The event was held in Polish with simultaneous translation.
Robert Traba – is a historian, a PhD, professor, director of the Center for History Studies of Polish Academy of Sciences in Berlin, honorary professor of the Free University of Berlin. He is an expert in the history of Polish-German borderlands, collective memory, and historical policy of Poland and East Central Europe, one of the leading promoters of public history in the present day Poland. Author and editor of several dozens of books in Polish, German, and English, such as "The Past in the Present" (2015), "Polsko-niemieckie miejsca pamięci, t. I-IV" (2012-2015), "Wschodniopruskość. Tożsamość regionalna i narodowa w kulturze politycznej Niemiec" (2003).

We just got back from our Kathmandu trip and it was really restful and encouraging! As we were at our meetings, someone mentioned something about people who move across the ocean sometimes lose their identity…sounds crazy, right? But it's SO true. I (Beth) think if you're not real confident in the States, your home culture, you definitely won't be confident overseas in a foreign culture. I can speak from experience.
I have discovered a lot about myself while living in 'ol South Asia. For example, I am a germaphobe, I really like structure, I really like being with my husband & kids all day most days (who'da thought?), and I am pretty insecure…
Yup, I said it, I'm pretty insecure…not quite sure why b/c I have an awesome husband, parents, family and friends that encourage, inspire and support me…but maybe it's because I feel like I've time warped back to middle school with an inferiority complex since moving to South Asia. I feel like everyone is watching me and staring at everything I do (but that's because they are) and I have to be really conscious about what I wear/how I act in public (as to not attract more attention). In this culture, it's not rude to stare.
So, I feel like I have 2 personalities – Celebrity vs. Freak.
Why Celebrity? I think it's because I feel like we're being watched and sometimes even treated like royalty! As I appreciate people's hospitality, I am not so sure I value the attention. Listen, I know I am no beautiful movie star, nor do I want to be treated like one! I am a normal, God-fearing woman that would like respect and courtesy.
Why Freak? I think it's because we are some of the few white people that live here…so, people are curious, and they stare. Not just stare. They look until I feel like there's a hole stared right through me. For example, we walk down the street and people riding their bikes watch us until I almost think their heads will turn 180 degrees! You know you didn't like getting stared at when you were trying to find a seat in the cafeteria in middle school, right?!
It creates some kind of defensive mechanism inside me. Don't get me wrong, I like living here. It's just created some feelings within me that I have had to deal with/am dealing with, and praying how to combat future meltdowns and anger. Praying for the Lord to give me HIS love for these people and to give me confidence in HIM, so that I would not be prideful in myself. B/c I know it's not going to be my own flesh that loves them. I know it would be easy to be confident in myself. But I want to love and take pride in Jesus, not be dependent upon myself (or others) for strength and reassurance. Whew! It's a daily combat that we live over here.
Anyways, that's a little bit of what's going on my head and about our journey…can you relate?

When my sister was a teacher at a private K-8 school in Westwood in the early 1980s, she started a drama program.
One of her students was Sean Astin, who played Marley's ghost in "A Christmas Carol" and was a charming Snoopy singing "Suppertime" in "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown."
I really got to know him when I helped her chaperone a spring-break trip to Washington, D.C., that 20 of her students took.
What I most remember about Sean on that trip is that a student from Petaluma Junior High School who had been partnered with my sister's students had an unfortunate bowel accident on our visit to the Capitol.
Other students made fun of him or taunted him before one of the teachers from that group took him back to the hotel in a cab.
When 11-year-old Sean heard about it on the bus as we were making our way to another stop, his reaction was "That poor kid."
It's one of the reasons why I always loved Sean Astin, and why I always loved him in "The Goonies," the 1985 film that the Friends of the Fox will show Sunday at the Bob Hope Theatre.
The character, Mikey, is a little boy with a good heart who sets out to find a buried treasure so his parents won't be forced to sell their home for a proposed golf course.
It didn't seem much of a stretch for Sean to be that thoughtful little boy, any more than he was the believable Samwise Gamgee, Frodo's loving guardian, in the blockbuster "Lord of the Rings" trilogy 15 years later.
That's who Sean is.
What's remarkable, though, is the performance he and the rest of the cast give in the film. They're believable kids on a fantastic journey.
Credit for that starts with Steven Spielberg. This is the guy who has mastered poignant storytelling from a child's perspective. "E.T." or "Empire of the Sun" anyone?
Although he was the producer and Richard Donner the director, Spielberg showed up on set, did direct a scene or two, and his fingerprints are on the final product.
Donner, who'd directed Christopher Reeves' "Superman" and the "Lethal Weapon" series, had an eye for both special effects and buddy chemistry. He was an inspired choice to direct, and he got great performances out of his young performers.
"The Goonies," Mikey's fellow outcasts, are played by Corey Feldman, Ke Huy Kwan — who later appeared in Spielberg's "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" — and Jeff Cohen. They're joined in their quest to find the sunken ship and buried treasure of the notorious pirate One Eyed Willy, by Mikey's big brother, Brand, played by Josh Brolin in his film debut, Martha Plimpton and Kerri Russell.
Along the way the kids must outsmart the Fratellis, a family of criminals out for the loot themselves. The "scary" member of the family, Sloth, is none other than former Oakland Raiders John Matusak, who develops an endearing friendship with Cohen's Chunk.
Filmed in Astoria, Oregon, and Cannon Beach in that state, with its Haystack Rock, "The Goonies" is just fun, family entertainment.
At the time the film was released, Spielberg was quoted as saying Sean Astin always had ideas of his own about what would make a good scene. The director said, "You know, the kid was right."
That made my sister laugh. It turns out she wasn't the only director to whom Sean Astin offered unsolicited directing advice.

A sartorial, no-frills attitude meets brassy textile inspired by the jollity and camp of QVC, that person at the office Christmas party and a maleficent, magnificent Grace Jones in A View to a Kill (1985).
The attitude is one of dressing for the occasion. Saving that Lurex fil coupé chiffon open collar shirt for the office outing. Dusting off a special Panné velvet suit to wear to dinner.
A new deconstructed snakeskin print is a nod to power dressing, pomp and parties.
Oversized is an attitude more than a covering for the body.
Trousers have zips running down their front creases. A long-sleeved Cuban shirt is in printed velvet.
Crutchley has collaborated with a number of artisanal producers and designers. Merino wool and cashmere jacquard used for outerwear and blankets is from Johnstons of Elgin – makers of the softest cashmere garments in the world.
Classic wool tailoring fabrics are from Yorkshire-based mill Bower Roebuck.
Stephen Jones has designed a riff on a traditional Korean gat and a pillbox hat in soft swakara.
Sunglasses are by sustainable eyewear brand Wires and high-shine loafers are by Christian Louboutin.

Well hello handsome! This dashing fellow, Taeyang Sol, was a gift from the Tuesday Morning heavens this fall, and you can imagine my shock when I found him. His original release date was 2008, but he's certainly aged well. With white hair and a gorgeous tan skin tone, he is mysterious and intimidating.
Aside from the doll, his stock is quite impressive. I imagine June Planning's designers had a great time planning for this guy. Can't you imagine the insane backstory he must have?
His shoes are rock star – I'm thinking K.I.S.S.
I don't have many Taeyang dolls but he's a keeper!

Cape Cod Prospect Rundown: Chatham AnglersProspects
The Anglers finished the regular season tied for 1st place in the East Division with an overall record of 24-18-2. They then went 0-2 in the first round of the playoffs against Harwich. All-Stars included Jamal O'Guinn II (USC), Kolby Kubicheck (Texas), Dawson Merryman (Midland JC), Brady Smith (Florida), Jorge Arenas (Stetson), Kaden Polcovich (NW Florida CC) and Ben Ramirez (USC).
Brady Smith, C, Florida, 2020– The 6-foot, 200 pound backstop hovered around a .300 batting average for much of the regular season. However, Smith's 1-for-20 finish with ten strikeouts dropped his final regular season slash to .233/.343/.400. During my look, his swing was smooth and easy, but had some length making him late to contact. Showed a controlled stride with good separation and extension and used his hips well during his swing. Behind the plate he blocked well with below average receiving skills. Showed an above average arm with average carry, although his 2.00-2.05 POP times had below average accuracy as most throws were off-line. After a strong sophomore season at the plate for the Gators (.270/.392/.428) and in a weak college draft class for catchers in 2020, Smith is likely to jump into…
Our analysis includes players from Georgia Tech, Arizona State, Texas, NC Central, Kentucky, Hawaii, Miami, Oklahoma State, USC, Florida, Stetson, Bradley, Vandy, West Virginia, Wichita State.

Answer: 30
This is an interesting little question. :)
Zep, the answer is 30 becasue the only numbers that work are 25 and 36.
\((The\;\;number\;\; is \;\;10a+b\\ where\\ 10a+b=\frac{ab}{\frac{a}{b}}\\ 10a+b=b^2\\ 10a=b^2-b\\ 10a=b(b-1)\\ \)
The only numbers where b(b-1) is a multiple of 10 is b=5 and b=6
You can take it from there.
I've redone some of the latex, I hope it works this time. I see Heueka has used Latex sucessfully since I last posted.
Thanks for the help!!!

Marcus Romer offers a suggestion to anyone who wants to find out how they will be working three years from now.
Back in 2008, Julie Borchard-Young from the New York Metropolitan Opera came to speak at the first Shift Happens conference about the then recent New York Met live broadcasts into cinemas that had just started. It was clear to me that this was going to mean a seismic shift for all arts organisations and was going to be a true game-changer for the sector. In the audience back then was David Sabel, who was responsible for digital at The National Theatre, and the conversations he had with Julie led to the conception of NTLive – which was subsequently born with the Borchard-Young company delivering the project. We livestreamed Shift Happens in 2008, and this process has led to Pilot Theatre's development of this work on a national level. This has resulted in the six-camera livestream of the York Mystery Plays for The Space, and more recently our open democracy programme for City of York Council, livestreaming their cabinet and council meetings. Perhaps more than anything these examples illustrate the value of bringing key speakers into contact with the sector, sharing ideas and thinking that can make some real shift happen.
'Shift's is our version of TED for the Arts and Cultural Sector. The idea for it followed my first trip to TED in Monterey back in 2007. It was here that I first saw the impact of the creative collisions and interactions that occurred as part of the day. It was about thinking, about ideas, about making shifts happen. Now, more than ever we need to be able to challenge our existing thinking and to be seeking creative solutions collectively. As we head into more uncertain times in terms of public subsidy and shifting landscapes, it is our duty to lead with innovative and inspiring ideas that can provide solutions to the problems that as yet don't exist, but for sure are coming down the track. Speakers who have shared their visions with us over the years include Ken Robinson, with his now well-known clarion call for creativity within education; Jonathan Harris and the new methods of digital storytelling; and Clay Shirky, who last year shared his vision for harnessing the power and wisdom of the crowd.
This year we will have asked our world-class speakers to look at their visions for the future and how the cultural and media industries can best harness the opportunities that the new and emergent digital platforms have to offer. We will be joined by Internet guru Howard Rheingold, live from San Francisco, who will be talking about the power of networks and virtual communities; Kate Russell, BBC Click presenter who will be looking at crowd funding and working with the cloud; and Matt Mason from BitTorrent who will be demonstrating their new platform for data and content sharing that will revolutionise how we will access music and performance. It is impossible to predict the precise outcome of the encounters that will take place at Shift V this year, but if you want to find out how you will be working in the next three years, this is the place to do it.
Marcus Romer is Artistic Director of Pilot Theatre and presenter of the Shift Happens conferences. Shift V is happening on 8 July in York and ArtsProfessional is delighted to be the media partner for the conference. Editor Liz Hill will be among the speakers.

Now I'm scared. I feel like something bad is going to happen and that no one will like me or read my blog anymore. I know I am not thinking straight about this. All sorts of insecurities and bad thoughts in my head. It just makes the abuse more real and a part of me doesn't want it to be real and I've avoided it for many years.
I am proud of myself for doing it, but there are repercussions. I keep thinking that I did something wrong and that someone is going to yell or hit me. It has also increased my depression and desire to cut or bruise. So, I know I need to take PRN's today.
What I wrote are some of the things that I'm starting to integrate in therapy which sucks. I think it helps to put things into context. The biggest thing is that I told. I actually told anyone that visits my site and reads the sidebar. Feeling very vulnerable, raw and tearful...seeing on the computer screen makes it so much more real. I am beginning to have more compassion for my little girl instead of hatred and wanting to kill her off.
It is triggering more of the flashbacks that I've been having anyway, but it has increased them in intensity and frequency. I'm also feeling pretty disconnected. Writing helps even though, I am rambling and jumping thoughts. I still am in a little bit of shock, but the responses have been great. Thank to those who have been encouraging. Can I take it down now...I don't really mean that I would. It is just really tempting.

In our community, gay and lesbian individuals sometimes forget there is a "B" in the blanket acronym used to describe queers. Many bisexuals say they are often marginalized by the notion that bisexuality doesn't exist and is just a stopover on the route to gay-town.
With this in mind, the Risk and Resilience study has been launched by the Re:searching for LGBTQ Health team in conjunction with the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH).
The goal of this community-based research is to uncover how prevalent issues such as depression, addiction and anxiety are in the bisexual community; look at what support services exist for bisexuals; and explore what types of discrimination those who love both genders experience.
The Risk and Resilience study was born from pilot research compiled by Dr Lori Ross's Re:searching for LGBTQ Health team. Ross's study conducted semi-structured focus groups with 55 bisexuals around Ontario and highlighted the impact biphobia and monosexism (the belief that someone can be attracted to only one gender) have on mental health.
Ross's study found that in addition to discrimination, people who identify as bisexual report that they often receive sub-standard care from health-service providers and that they are constantly told they are not actually bisexual.
"Someone might go to a counsellor for depression and get told that if they accepted that they were really gay or lesbian, and not bisexual, then their depression would go away," Dr Margaret Robinson, project manager of the Risk and Resilience study, says. "Family members didn't always support bisexuality, even if they were gay-positive, and same-sex partners pressured us to identify as gay or lesbian."
Robinson has helmed the Risk and Resilience project since 2010 and is bisexual herself. She says that people have accused her of being straight and pretending to be bisexual for attention.
"Having to fight constantly, just to be who you are, really wears you down," she says.
Robinson brings years of queer experience to the project. She has previously facilitated the Bi Women of Toronto group and the Toronto Bisexual Network. In addition, she has coordinated the Dyke March and helped organize the ninth International BiCon, and she is a director of the Toronto Bisexuality Education Project.
"That experience helped me assemble a great advisory committee for this project. We've got 11 bisexuals from around Ontario whose experience and advice have guided the project through every stage," she says.
One such member of the advisory committee is notable Ottawa drag performer Zelda Marshall. Marshall became involved with the Risk and Resilience study after completing and promoting the Trans Pulse Project survey and was then asked to join the advisory committee for the current study.
"When I am feeling particularly provocative, which is most of the time, I tell people in fact that I identify as a 'GB' — greedy bitch. Yes, I want it all, including the freedom to love either sex," Marshall says with a laugh.
"Even today, I still have friends who swear me to secrecy when they come out to me as bi," Marshall says. "Hopefully, this survey, and particularly awareness of the interest of the needs of bisexuals as being distinct from either heteros or homos, will reduce some of that stigma."
"Even today, I still have friends who swear me to secrecy when they come out to me as bi," Marshall says. "Hopefully, this survey, and particularly awareness of the interest of the needs of bisexuals as being distinct from either heteros or homos, will reduce some of that stigma."
Robinson admits that within the queer community a stigma exists against the CAMH. This negative opinion of her employer is something she says she frequently encounters when conversing with queers; however, the partnership with Re:searching has somewhat alleviated the presumption that the CAMH isn't working for the benefit of the queer community.
"This isn't a case of outsiders coming in with a bunch of questions," she explains. "This is insider research done by bisexuals, for bisexuals."
There are still plenty of spots available in the Risk and Resilience study; however, to be included, you must know someone who has already taken part. Through this respondent-driven sampling, participants of the study can recruit up to 10 other bisexuals to join the study.
"It's like the shampoo commercial from the '80s," Robinson explains. "I told two friends, and they told two friends, and so on. By tracking these chains of recruitment, we can weigh the data to compensate for the non-random sample. So our results should be true for bisexuals in Ontario generally, not just those who did the survey."
Robinson points out that bisexual people aren't as socially networked as the transgender community, and the recruitment chain has been slow to take off. There are 900 tickets in circulation, and Robinson encourages bisexuals who do want to participate to tell their friends they would like a ticket.
"Many of the people who experience the negative effects of biphobia don't identify as bisexual. So we've created a video to let pansexual, omnisexual, fluid, queer, questioning and unlabelled people know that if they're attracted to more than one gender, they can participate as well."

text: 20 years ago, Fountainhead had the privilege to launch the Sony Entertainment Television channel in India. This year, we were honoured again to execute its 20th Anniversary celebrations and we did it in style. With a stunning setup which perfectly portrayed the theme #SonyTerrific20, we created an immersive experience for approximately 2500 guests comprising of Bollywood and Television stars along with the internal employees of Sony. We set the benchmark by installing a mammoth 25 feet moving chandelier in the centre of the ballroom, with its lighting synced with the music; a technology used for the first time in India at an event. The grand party also witnessed some enthralling performances by a globally renowned Mentalist Roy Zaltsman, Electric String Angels band, DJ Aqeel, DJ Suketu and Sunidhi Chauhan along with her Band.

GSI Surfboards Summer 2016 Preview
Were sales up, down or the same as the previous year?
From a global perspective surfboard sales are slowly growing again. SUP is still growing at a stronger rate with a lot of new people still getting into SUP. From a European perspective we experienced some good growth.
Which models/shapers/categories are trending?
Hybrids by far is the category that is moving. Alternate Tech is what is the most popular. 7S Carbon Vector and Haydenshapes Futureflex is what we are seeing demand for as people are not only accepting but moreover seeking out lighter more responsive equipment.
How is the women's category?
Women's surfing is coming of age, you can see this in many of the line ups around the world. Their equipment needs are no different to men's. Hybrids are strong with female buyers as well.
What's new that we should be watching out for?
GSI has a number of new models in final testing so it should be an interesting year once these models drop.
And what is old news?
Haydenshapes Hypto Krypto has won surfboard of the year two years in a row and just picked up the Surfboard of the Year in the USA as well. Sales are increasing each month as word of this boards range continues to spread.

Rates: is there still a huge gap between entry-level models and high-end surfboards?
Yes and it is growing, as higher end constructions and materials are used the gap between high end models and the basic PU board will continue to grow. This is pretty exciting.
Constructions: are there any innovations in surfboard construction?
GSI is experimenting with custom fibreglass weaves, Innegra and carbon fibreglass. Lots of different ways to control the strength and flex of a board to enhance performance.
Which technology proves to be the most popular among GSI's brands?
Future Flex and Carbon Vector. Future Flex more so because of the popularity of the Haydenshapes brand in general.
Distribution: how do you dispatch your production between core shops, 'not so core' shops, and larger retail chains?
The retail mix is mainly core surf stores over online although online growth is increasing year on year.
Eco: What are you doing to improve your carbon footprint?
GSI focuses on a number of areas, a simple one being waste reduction. Higher tolerance moulds help reduce the amount of waste that is produced in the construction process. Using higher end materials also helps you to focus on how much of the material you use as it is expensive and wasting it adds up quickly.

After speaking with HipHopDX recently about his time and Death Row Records and appearance on Tupac's multi-platinum All Eyez On Me album, CPO Boss Hogg was asked about slept-on albums. After all, the onetime MC Ren protege went from a major label contract (with group, also known as CPO (a/k/a Capital Punishment Organization) to high-profile appearances along side Tha Eastsidaz, 'Pac and Murder Was The Case and Above The Rim soundtracks. Asked about his Top 5 Slept-On West Coast Hip Hop Albums, the Compton, California native had some interesting insights.
CPO Boss Hogg first selected an album from his onetime Capitol Records label-mate and fellow Hub City native. "King T put an album out that I would say. That cat's super-tight, and just slept-on, for real." Referring to Thy Kingdom Come, CPO was describing the album Tipsy recorded between 1996 and 1999 under the tutelage of Dr. Dre at Aftermath Entertainment. When the veteran emcee and Likwit Crew pioneer left the label, he would release Thy Kingdom Come controversially three years later, in 2002, on Greedy Green Entertainment/Mo Beatz. Despite not charting, the album still boasted appearances from Kool G Rap, Too Short and Kid Frost. Additionally, Thy Kingdom Come featured seven Dre-produced tracks, as well as board-work by DJ Quik, Ant Banks and Mike Dean. "I can't believe you asked me this question," laughed CPO, who also put down his own 1990 sole effort, which debuted on the Top 200. "I can certainly tell you which one I wouldn't pick: I wouldn't put my album [To Hell And Black] in there."
Moving from non-charting albums to platinum releases, the Boss Hogg pointed, "[Snoop Doggy Dogg's] Tha Doggfather. That got slept-on." The late 1996 sophomore (and #1) album from the Long Beach, California superstar was Snoop's final studio album released at Death Row Records, as well as his final with the "Doggy" moniker.
While Tha Doggfather's intro famously played at Dr. Dre's lack of involvement with onetime protege Snoop, CPO next highlighted an album executive produced by Dre—which like, Thy Kingdom Come, was not released by Aftermath. "A lot of people would probably disagree, but I think that Xzibit's Restless was slept-on." The late 2000 album was released on Loud Records, and Xzibit's first effort to achieve an RIAA plaque.
Next, CPO picked an album that was the first not to receive a plaque for an artist. "I also think Warren G's [Return Of The Regulator] and 213's [The Hard Way] were slept-on," said Boss Hogg, both albums Warren G projects in the early 2000s. "Warren G made an amazing album," he said of the 2001 Top 100 Universal Republic LP extensively featuring Mista Grimm, Butch Cassidy and CPO, who appeared on "They Lovin' Me Now" and "It Ain't Nothin' Wrong With You." "[Universal Records] didn't do shit with that album. I was like, 'Are you kidding me?' That was an an incredible album; it was better [than Regulate…G-Funk Era], it just didn't have the pub," said CPO, comparing Warren's fourth album to his multi-platinum 1994 debut for Def Jam Records. "It's all about pub."
Elaborating on picking 213's lone 2004 album, CPO added, "A chick stole my fuckin' CD!" Of the group of Snoop Dogg, Warren G and Nate Dogg, he said, "I always knew when those guys came together to make the record, it'd be incredible. But it was like, 'We'll do one just to do one.' It was like a fire-cracker that didn't pop." The TVT Records effort failed to receive a plaque. Additionally, Warren G refrained from production, while a burgeoning Kanye West joined Hi-Tek, Missy Elliot and Nottz on the boards. Continuing his fireworks analogy, CPO said, "It was [musically] explosive though. It should have popped. It just didn't. It should have…just why?" "The was kind of a let-down."
The group whose demo tape led to Snoop Dogg's discovery by Dr. Dre in 1991 never released another album. Nate Dogg died in March of 2011.
CPO Boss Hogg's sophomore album, iBoss, is expected to release later this year.

Ronald Peters.
Unfortunately for these blacks, faggots are higher than them on the Jewish victimhood ladder.
That means they're going to be charged with a HATE CRIME.
A hate crime is the worst crime a man can be charged with – because he was feeling an illegal emotion while doing it.
A fatal shooting that claimed the life of 28-year-old Ronald Peters is being investigated as a "hate motivated" homicide by DeKalb County Police.
On Tuesday June 4, Peters was walking down Orchard Street to the MARTA station as he prepared for work. While en route, two black men exited a nearby maroon truck, put on masks and demanded Peters give them his bag.
"Give me your bag, fa****," said one of the suspects, according to a witness.
Before Peters, who is an openly gay man, could fully react, he was shot in the chest and neck by one of the suspects. When his nearly lifeless body hit the pavement, the suspects grabbed his bag, ran back to the truck and fled the scene south towards Columbia Drive.
A witness also told police a third suspect was the designated getaway driver.
Peters boyfriend, Joseph Davis, told police there had been an incident between his boyfriend and two men a week prior — an incident in which Peters was verbally accosted and called a fa****.
Peter was immediately transported to an area hospital where he was pronounced dead at 9:15 a.m. When officers arrived to the 3400 block of Orchard Circle they found two shell casings.

Have you started questioning the quality of Google's search results?
You've probably noticed that a lot of people have been lately.
Before you start asking too many questions, however, Google's Matt Cutts
wants you to take into consideration a fact you may not know: Google
really wasn't all that good in 2000.
In a post on his blog, he writes:
Google in 2000 looked great in comparison with other engines at the time, but Google 2011 is much better than Google 2000. I know because back in October 2000 I sent 40,000+ queries to google.com and saved the results as a sort of search time capsule.
He shows a handful of results for the query "buy domain name" and explains:
Seven of the top 10 results all came from one domain, and the urls look a little… well, let's say fishy. In 1999 and early 2000, search engines would often return 50 results from the same domain in the search results.
The not-so-subtle message: yes, Google was the best search engine in 2000, but that didn't mean that it wasn't pretty crappy.
It's an odd message for a well-known employee at the world's largest search engine to send. Yes, Cutts may be trying to make a valid point about how much Google has improved in certain areas over the years, but in doing so, he's making a losing argument about the state of Google today. Nobody cares about Google 2000. Most of us do care about Google 2011.
Unfortunately, Google, as a company, seems ill-equipped to fend off the growing criticism of the core product on which its empire is built — its search engine.
Google's success has given consumers a good reason to have higher expectations for the company, but instead of treating this as an opportunity, Google seems to be treating this as a curse, so it's playing defense instead of offense, lashing out at competitors and watching as employees like Cutts take PR into their own hands.
In this case, there can be little doubt that Cutts' strange post is a direct result of the fact that the media's infatuation with Google has largely worn off.
Google is being scrutinized and criticized publicly by those who never before dared. A lot of this criticism is leveled at the quality of Google's search results, which Cutts is partially responsible for maintaining.
There's a good lesson here for all companies: relationships with customers sometimes look an awful lot like romantic relationships. In the beginning, everything is perfect, even when it isn't.
Over time, as the endorphins wear off, you start noticing things you didn't before. It's natural, but the key to rekindling the flame is not disparaging your first experiences together so that things seem a little bit better today. In other words, just as you wouldn't tell your spouse "You know, honey, our first date really wasn't all that special" or "I thought you were a really bad kisser at first", you shouldn't tell your customers "Our initial product really sucked" or "You should know we had no clue back when you started using us."
Instead, the key to rekindling the flame of a solid customer relationship is finding ways to bring some of those past emotions and experiences forward to the present.
For Google, the first step in doing this requires asking the question "What did Google mean to consumers in 2000 and why?", not "What did our search results look like in 2000?"

The Eventim Apollo is an iconic venue that has hosted many great performances; and tonight is no exception. As the lights outside the Apollo glow like a halo above the sign; "An Evening With Machine Head" [5/5]. The atmosphere is electric!
The iconic Machine Head crest adorns the stage, as the light go up Dave McClain appears behind his drum kit. Phil Demmel and Jared MacEachern soon follow with rip roaring shouts and applause from the crowd. Lastly Robb Flynn takes centre stage and kicks straight into "Clenching The Fists of Dissent", which gets the evening perfectly started.
Tonight's set is full of crowd pleasers from every album of their 22 year career, showing how dynamic an act they are. Continuing with "Beautiful Mourning" the crowd mosh in unison as Robb asks for a circle pit, the apollo goes nuts with excitement. As the audience sing along with Robb you get a real family vibe, as everyone in this 4'500 capacity venue are here for one reason. To mosh, dance and sing with Machine Head.
The band are on form tonight and you can tell they are enjoying themselves, classic's like "Take My Scars" and "Ten Ton Hammer" sound as fresh and heavy today as the day they were written. "From This Day" is a welcomed surprise, being one of three songs tonight from "The Burning Red". Including"Desire To Fire" which they have not played live since 2002, which goes down a treat. After which we are taken back to the album "Supercharger" for "Crashing Around You", before a short interlude where Phil has some fun with his guitar under a green spotlight.
As Robb comes back on stage with two guitars, he talks to us about how music can get you through some of the darkest times in your life. As he starts strumming the strings, the emotion spreads through the crowd as they sing along. Robb's voice carries every note perfectly, with the crowd continuing the ending over and over again. As the band applaud from the stage and Robb says "that was awesome". Time for Dave to show off why he is one of the most underrated drummers in metal music, as he blasts out a hell of a session from behind his kit.
Next up is "Bulldozer" which is thunderous live, as they wrap up this part of the set "Davidian" is unleashed. The crowd goes into chaos as arms and legs fly everywhere, with multiple circle pits opening up. As the crowd shouts "let freedom ring with a shotgun blast" it is almost louder than Robb on stage. The lights go down and the crowd chants begin, even though they know Machine Head will be back.
The first encore starts with "A Farewell To Arms" and plays straight into "Now I Lay Thee Down"; where Phil and Robb play solos between each other. As the bass of Jared opens the chords of "Imperium", the crowd rumbles with anticipation for the guitars of Robb and Phil to kick in. The lights flash and guitars as the crowd mosh and the circle pits open up once again, to a frenzy of excitement.
After another brief dimming of the lights, the second encore erupts with "Aesthetics of Hate" as always dedicated to "our friend and your friend Dimebag Darrel". The intensitey continues with "Game Over" that the crowd sings along to, screaming "game over!" Leaving no time for the show to stop "Blood for Blood" is inleashed, another mighty classic from the Machine Head vault.
Finally the actual encore begins; as the final song of the night is "Halo" as announced by Robb. This is the last chance for the crowd tonight to embrace the might that is Machine Head and they don't disappoint. As Robb, Phil, Dave and Jared give it their all, it is amazing how they perform such a long set night after night for this tour. It shows the pure strength in the characters and the drive as a band they have, to give their fans this experience every night. As ticker tape explodes over the crowd, the night comes to a close. At a lengthy 2 hours and 48 minutes, tonights show was one of the most memorable and greatest occasions that I have seen Machine Head. They have gone from strength to strength, showing why they are a force to be reckoned with!

As responses to the government's prerogative to square porn locales rose to a buildup on Monday, top interchanges service authorities said it was only intended to conform to the Supreme Court's perceptions and not to diminish web flexibility.
India Ranks 5 In Most Visiting Country: Porn-hub
"We are not a control-monstrosity government and firmly protest the word Talibanisation," Telecom minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said. "In actuality, we are pushing for more elevated amounts of web use through Digital India."
The Opposition had raised the T word to compare the limitation on porn locales to the methods for Afghanistan's harsh gathering. As indicated by information from Pornhub, one of the world's greatest porn locales, India positions in fifth spot for the most day by day guests to the site. The site saw a sum of 78.9 billion features sees all around in 2014.
Prasad declined to go into the points of interest of the move being made, yet a correspondences service authority said an overseer couldn't be discounted. "The overseer can hold investigations with folks' affiliations, NGOs, journalists and different partners on the issue," said the authority.
The Supreme Court, slated to take up the matter on August 10, had however issued no course to piece or boycott porn locales. On the keep going date of hearing on July 8, a seat headed by Chief Justice of India HL Dattu had just requested that the legislature elucidate its stand on an appeal looking to boycott obscene sites crosswise over India on the ground that they fuel wrongdoing against ladies.
"Such interim orders can't be gone by this court. Someone can go to the court and say, 'Look, I am a grown-up and by what method would you be able to prevent me from watching it inside of the four walls of my room? It is an infringement of Article 21 (privilege to individual freedom) of the Constitution.'
Yes, the issue is not kidding and a few stages should be taken… the Center needs to stand firm… give us a chance to see what stand the Center will take," Justice Dattu had told.

Secondary Indexes are another way of improving performance of queries hitting a particular table on Teradata. It is highly recommended that you first read about Primary indexes here
Secondary index is a way of giving the optimizer an alternate path to data i.e. you can have another column apart from primary index that you can employ for your queries to choose an optimized path in case primary index column is not always the column on which most of your queries run. However, there is a trade off when using secondary indexes as there is an overhead in the maintenance of secondary indexes. Each amp on the table on which secondary index is defined will hold a Secondary index sub table which will take some space depending on the size of the base table. Let us see the same with an example. Consider the image below:
The image above has a table employee which has a secondary index defined on the field PAN. Now, we know that data of the table is distributed across Teradata based on the primary index value which in this case is empno. So, the data is distributed across 4 amps and each amp has its own copy of the secondary index subtable.
The secondary index sub table stores the following information:
- Secondary Index value
- Secondary Index row id
- Base table row id
SI Access Mechanism:
Now suppose the following SQL is submitted :
Select * from employee where PAN = 'nn456a';
Now, when the optimizer gets this SQL, it knows that it's a secondary index , so first a hash of the value nn456a is calculated and the optimizer knows that the sub table containing this value resides on amp 0 (please refer image above). So, now it goes to amp 0 and checks the sub table for this value. The sub table has a column called base table row id, which in this case is 2,6.
So, then optimizer goes on to the amp containing this row id and fetches the result.
You can see that in the absence of a secondary index, we would have resulted in a full table scan and an all amp operation. But, because of a secondary index we could finish this operation by accessing only 2 amps. In the best case, you may find the sub table holding the base table row id residing in the same amp which will make it a 1 amp operation. So, having this SI has dramatically improved the performance of our query.
Please be wary that this has a overhead as stated before and SI should be implemented only for those tables in which there is a column other than the PI which is accessed a lot in a number of queries.
There are two kinds of SI similar to PI
- Unique Secondary Index (USI)
- Non Unique Secondary Index (NUSI)
The access example of SI above is of a USI as the SI values in PAN are all unique. In case of NUSI, the base table row id in the sub table can have multiple values because of the SI being unique . So it can either be a 2 amp operation or an all amp operation depending on how much uniqueness the SI has.
Secondary index can be created as follows at any time.
create index(column_name) on tablename;
It is very good idea to collect stats on the secondary index columns. There can be a maximum of 32 SI's that can be defined on a table in Teradata
This is it for Secondary Indexes. Do post questions in comments if you have any.
