I hadn't thought much about the whole Dixie Chicks / Toby Keith controversy in a long time (if you need a refresher, check out http://www.btchflcks.com/2013/03/shut-up-and-sing-dixie-chicks.html). It made me think about whether or not I consider my personal principles in the context of entertainment. I mean, I like to ... |

Thomson Grass Valley to feature EDIUS Broadcast version 4.6 |
Thomson Grass Valley will showcase EDIUS version 4.6 with new functionality based upon the JPEG2000 codec used in the Thomson Grass Valley Infinity camcorder during NAB2008. |
The JPEG2000 codec allows multilayer editing of EFP-quality HD content, even on a laptop computer. The workflow for Sony’s XDCAM has also been enhanced to support the new EX range of camcorders. EDIUS Broadcast takes advantage of Sony’s Simple Access Mode (SAM), whereby low-resolution video can be used in conjunction w... |
EDIUS Broadcast v4.6 takes advantage of JPEG2000’s bit layering, which provides full 100Mb/s encoded stream, an intermediate level (30Mb/s) or a high-quality browse level (6Mb/s). |

A new rule set to take effect this month will make it easier for the federal government to shut down commercial bus and trucking companies with a history of willfully violating safety laws. |
The Patterns of Safety Violations Rule will give the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration power to take a company’s entire fleet off the road — not just a single driver, truck or bus as in the past — when repeated problems are found. |
It will enable the agency to shut down businesses that have a pattern of maintenance or safety violations, including those whose drivers log excessive hours. It also will allow the administration to revoke operations rights for companies that hire officials who showed “egregious disregard for safety compliance” in the ... |

With thousands of print articles, television and radio broadcasts produced on a daily basis, the news is everywhere we look. With evolving technology and media, there are multiple ways to consume news through newspapers, magazines, websites and television shows. |
From local to national media, stories are designed to shape our public knowledge and perception of our community and the world around us. For Niagara University students, that objective has become more difficult as news stories have become more entertaining and less educational in recent years. |

Beijing Smog: Before And After Pictures |
We could tell readers' that earlier today, just like two weeks ago when Beijing was blanketed by the worst smog on record, the official reading of Beijing air quality moved from "hazardous (at a 24 hour exposure at this level)" to the laughable "Beyond Index" reading (which maybe means Beijing needs a bigger index)... |
... or we could just show these two pictures of Beijing before and after the smog: both taken at the same time, at the same place, with the only difference being the latest onslaught of what is now becoming a weekly occurrence of the worst breathing conditions recorded in any industrialized country. |

According to Delhi Metro, South Campus colleges will have direct connectivity with Metro in Phase III, which is expected to be completed by 2016. |
"The upcoming Phase III Mukundpur-Shiv Vihar metro corridor will have an elevated station at Dhaula Kuan, near Atma Ram Sanatan Dharma College," a Delhi Metro official said. |

Kevin Durant, Intramural stud QB |
What does one of the best basketball players on the planet look to do when he gets a little bored and restless due to an NBA lockout? Michael Jordan probably would have played some golf, or perhaps dabbled in some professional baseball. |
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant sought out a flag football game. |
Durant found an offer from George Overbey, a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity at Oklahoma State. The Sigma Nu's had a intramural playoff game set for 10 p.m. in Stillwater. |
I first got wind of all of this around 9:45 p.m., when an OStateIllustrated.com subscriber posted on The Corral that Durant was going to be playing |
Moving in and out of financial distress: evidence for newly founded service sector firms |
The determinants of transitions between different states of financial distress are analyzed using two versions of Markov chain models: a multinomial logit model without random effects and a multinomial logit model capturing such unobservable factors. The empirical analysis is based on a panel data set containing inform... |
Wrapping Up A Drama-Filled Weekend |
In a way, I almost enjoy coming to qualifying weekend more than the race…almost. There are so many storylines and subplots that develop throughout the weekend that come to a head in the last thirty minutes on Sunday afternoon. This year was no different. |
The weather was certainly a factor, as it usually is. As it turned out, it just served to make things more interesting as it created a sense of urgency for several drivers – most notably, Danica Patrick. Say what you will about Ms. Patrick (I know I have), but she showed guts today. When, at one point, it looked like t... |
The schedule of events has wavered (thanks a lot, thundersleet!), but our school spirit hasn't. See story details for information and an updated schedule of events. |
Wesleyan Wednesday is the day that students, faculty and staff show their school spirit by wearing blue and yellow. |
More than 65 international students experienced the 119-year-old Fort Worth tradition, seeing exhibits, riding rides and trying new food. |
PIERRE — A South Dakota legislative panel Tuesday rejected a measure that would have protected people’s ability to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation. |
After more than an hour of at times pointed testimony, the Senate Judiciary committee voted 5-2 to kill SB128, which Sen. Mark Kirkeby, R-Rapid City, called “a mean, nasty, hateful, vindictive bill.” |
Proposed by Sen. Phil Jensen, R-Rapid City, the bill would have barred lawsuits against people for “expressing their religious beliefs on the subject of sexual orientation,” as long as they did not incite violence, and ordered the attorney general to defend anyone sued for that reason. It also would have given business... |

“The animosity within the group—I hope at some point we can let it all go,” Harris says. “I don’t think we need to be brooding and at each other’s throats to make good music.” |
Last summer, Knopf, frustrated with the progress of the new album, decided to release 11 of his own songs under the name Ramona Falls, whose debut, Intuit, features a handful of songs Knopf wrote for Menomena that were rejected by the band. |
“I brought a lot of songs to the chopping block that were pretty fleshed out, including one I thought was the best song I’ve even written, and it didn’t make the album [Mines],” Knopf says. “It wasn’t a very enjoyable process.” |
The 33-year-old is the most misunderstood member of the band. Clean-shaven and soft-spoken, he chooses his words carefully. When asked if he’s happy with M |
From Greece to the South Pacific, 5 Places to REALLY Get Away From it All |

1. Mount Athos, Greece |
Eastern Orthodox monks have lived on the remote Greek peninsula since the 4th century. It’s accessible only by ferry, and only men — who must apply for a special Byzantine visa — are allowed to visit. Athos is so removed from modernity that monks still keep Byzantine time. |

Recipe by Zen K. |
"This is my step-mom's syrup recipe, and everyone says it's better than Hershey's! Great on ice cream, in chocolate milk, or drizzled on warm brownies." |

This really is the best recipe for home made chocolate syrup. I’m sure it’ll taste richer with milk vs. water (save heavy cream for fudge sauce). To refill a Hershey’s bottle, scale up recipe to 24 servings=1½ pint=3 cups=24oz. |

Uncertainty over the progress of a U.S. budget deal capped the advance in most stock markets Thursday as did a downbeat economic assessment from the European Central Bank and renewed political uncertainty in Italy. |
Earlier, markets had been buoyed by rising hopes of an imminent breakthrough in the budget talks. Failure to agree a deal could push the world's largest economy back into recession and potentially sink the global economic recovery. |
European markets remained in positive territory but investors failed to add to the earlier gains. |

A Little Back Ground |
In order for you to understand how I came up with this idea, you would have to know a little about my history (I hope this doesn’t bore you too much). I used to have a bad drug addiction (much like your need to get your ex back) when I was in my twenties. |
