DMX Millions Of Dollars In Debt, Files For Bankruptcy

Earl Simmons, best known as rapper DMX, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in a Manhattan courtroom today.

According to reports, the MC claims to be $1 million to $10 million in debt, with only $50,000 in assets. His debts include $1.24 million in back child support and more than $21,000 on an auto lease.

In the legal papers, the rapper said he filed the order ?to enable me to reorganize my financial affairs.?

?DMX?s financial strains have been inhibiting his career for several years,? representative Domenik Nati said in a statement. ?Poor financial management by prior representation have caused him to be ineligible to retain a passport. The purpose of this bankruptcy filing is for reorganization so he can perform for his fans oversees. We are currently planning a tour in Europe and Africa for the fall of 2013.?

This filing comes just days after Simmons was arrested in South Carolina on suspension of driving under the influence and without a driver?s license.

Along with his financial woes, X has had a public battle with drugs and alcohol for over a decade. We hope he gets it together for the sake of his family, soon.

Check Out How Much Better Twitter Could Look (and Work)

In the early days, Twitter was famous for its dead simple design: a box, some text, a button. But over the years, it's gotten busier with the hashtags and the @ mentions and the retweets. Some might say say too busy. So why not just start over and rebuild this thing from the ground up?

1. More US Soldiers Committed Suicide Than Died in Combat ? Top ...

For the second year (2010) in a row, more US soldiers killed themselves (468) than died in combat (462). ?If you? know the one thing that causes people to commit suicide, please let us know,? General Peter Chiarelli told the Army Times, ?because we don?t know.?? Suicide is a tragic but predictable human reaction to being asked to kill ? and watch your friends be killed ? particularly when it?s for a war based on lies. ?Perhaps being required to bag the mangled flesh of fellow soldiers could be another reason that some are committing suicide.

Body Bagging? ever heard the term?? Marines in the Corps?s Mortuary Affairs unit at Camp Al Taqaddum, Iraq, are assigned the job of collecting and cataloging the bodies of dead Marines. They sift through the remains and effects, from prom photos to suicide notes and love letters, and put them into a bag, then into a metal box and then into a refrigerator to await the flight home. One soldier, Jess Goodell, recounts a Marine brought into the unit still breathing. She frantically called to her superiors, who replied simply, ?Wait.? She watched while he died. When she returned to the US, Goodell, like many others, was diagnosed with deep depression, substance abuse, PTSD and anxiety.

Golf Notes: South area golfers dominate the game

It?s been a banner year for golfers from our region and it seems to only get better.

For instance, just last week Thorny Lea?s Matt Parziale won the prestigious Francis Ouimet Memorial Tournament in unusual fashion and 15-year-old Megan Khang of Rockland advanced to the semifinals of the US Girls? Junior Championship in Indiana.

Parziale, survived a five-hole playoff to win the rain-shortened championship last Friday at Woodland GC in Newton. It?s not his first Ouimet title. Parziale, 24, won the Ouimet in 2009 before he gave pro golf a whirl.

As for Khang, it?s not her first dance at the Junior Prom and won?t be her last..

She was the youngest player ever to qualify in 2009 when she was 11. She is a veteran of the Girls Junior, making her fifth straight appearance and in the tournament?s 65-year history, only 38 players have played in five or more.

?It's a huge event and I love playing in it,? Khang told reporters in Indiana. ?I just want to keep coming back. Even if I'm too old, I want to keep coming back ? but I know I can't.?

Unless the championship is moved off its traditional late-July date, Khang will be eligible for two more US Girls' Juniors Championships before she turns 18, meaning she is on pace to tie Margot Morton's record of seven appearances.

Khang, who is ranked among the top girls in the nation by Golfweek magazine, should walk away with this championship trophy someday soon.

But Khang and Parziale are not the only golfers having a great summer.

Golfers for the region have been piling away hardware.

John Hadges of Easton won the Norfolk County Classic and the Hornblower Memorial to start the year.

Marshfield pro Geoff Sisk won the Cape Cod Open in May. But that was only the beginning. Sisk made headlines by surviving two qualifying tournament to play in the US Open at Merion (Pa.) GC in June.

West Bridgewater native and Brockton Country Club member Mike Calef, who now calls Texas home, captured the State Amateur for the second year in a row.

And you cannot forget Doug Clapp of Old Sandwich GC in Plymouth. He finished second to Hadges in the Norfolk County Class and in the Hornblower. Clapp also made the cut at the State Open; went deep into match play at the State Amateur; and had a respectable finish at the Ouimet Memorial last week.

His efforts have him in first place for the Massachusetts Golf Association?s Player of the Year standings. Clapp has 566 points. Parziale is chasing him in second play with 470 points while Calef has 350 points and Hadges has 325.

Another player who will be making headlines is Easton?s Ryan Riley, the 2011 State Amateur champion. Riley is one of the few locals who earned a berth in the upcoming US Amateur at The Country Club.

And there is Brendan Ridge of Hanover and the Harmon Club. He was the youngest competitor at the State Amateur. He also fashioned the best qualifying round (a 3-under 69) for this week?s State Junior Championship at the Essex County Club in Manchester-By-The-Sea, where he has to be considered one of the favorites.

Of course, on the women?s side, Tara Joy-Connolly dominated the Edith Noblit Baker tournament, a WGAM major, winning by a whopping 10 strokes. To be fair, they played it on her home course, Cohasset. But it was her sixth Baker victory since 1997.

And there are others, such as Norwell native Ben Spitz earned low amateur at the State Open; Herbie Aikens, who advanced to the USGA Public Links Championship in Lorton, Va.; and Blue Hill CC?s Isabel Southard, who is one of the rising juniors.

It?s been a good summer.

Parziale is a great story. [In full journalist disclosure, he is a friend who caddied for us when he was a junior. I still feel bad for the time he was fore-caddying and one of my errant shots headed in his direction. In an attempt to elude my missile, he smashed his face into a tree, leaving an awful bruise. I still haven?t gotten over it.]

He gave the pro tour a whirl and realized how difficult it was and has his amateur standing reinstated.

At the Ouimet last week, the first two rounds were played at Wollaston GC and Wellesley CC; the final round is always played at Woodland ? Ouimet?s home course ? but last Friday?s rain made that impossible.

Parziale was tied after the first two rounds with Cody Paladino of Wethersfield (Conn.) CC and John Flaherty of TPC River Highlands, also in Connecticut. The three were knotted at 3-under par 139. Seeing that there was only a short window of good weather, tournament officials decided to cancel the final round, but have the competitors tied for the lead play a three-hole aggregate playoff on the 16th, 17th and 18th holes. Parziale took an early lead after hitting a 9-iron to five inches on the 17th, but three-putted from 44 feet on 18 to extend the playoff against Paladino. Flaherty bogeyed 18 to drop out, and the playoff then went to sudden death. It ended on the 17th after Paladino drove out of bounds and eventually double-bogeyed while Parziale made a routine par.

??This was very special to win here again. I?m feeling good about my game, and feel that if I can get in contention I have a chance,? Parziale told Becky Blaeser of the Massachusetts Golf Association.

As for Khang, eventual champion Gabriella Then of Upland, Calif., beat her, 2-and-1, in the semifinals.

Aimola will

be missed

?

Dolph Aimola, 87, died last Saturday at 4 o?clock in the morning, which was about the time he would rise every day to prepare for his position as starter at South Shore Country Club. He was as much a part of South Shore Country Club as the greens and the tees and is fondly remember by all of its members.? Even before his death, South Shore Country Club was going to pay special tribute to their longtime starter by bestowing his name on the SSCC Four-Ball tournament, scheduled for this Saturday and Sunday. Everyone there is heart-broken he cannot be on have to savor the celebration as was planned.

Dolph was involved in the founding of the old South Shore Two-Ball Championship some fifty years ago until the tournament expired when South Shore CC went dark in 1985. Eventually, Hingham took the land by eminent domain and restored the golf course. Three years ago it was Dolph who was a force to revive the tournament. In his youth, Dolph was a talented athlete, playing football (semi-pro ball for the old Quincy Manets) and golf. He received an award from the Massachusetts Golf Association for his dedicated work with the old two-ball tournament and also received the Executive of the Year Award from the Tournament Players League.

Nate Davis of Taunton won the Rockland Open on Sunday for the third straight year with a 7-over-par 115 at Rockland Golf Course. D.J. Arsenault, playing with a prosthetic left leg, captured the overall low net title at 1-over 109. In the Rockland Junior Open played earlier in the week, Chris Flipp (61) won the boys? title and Christine Cutting (72) was the girls? champion . . .

New American Chemical Society video on a real stinker: The corpse ...

WASHINGTON, July 29, 2013 ? After six years of anticipation, that rock star of plants ? a rainforest giant known as the corpse flower for its putrid odor ? has bloomed here, and is the subject of a new video by the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world's largest scientific society. It is available at http://www.bytesizescience.com.

The video, produced by ACS Office of Public Affairs' award-winning Digital Services Unit, focuses on the chemical cocktail responsible for the offensive odor of the flower. More formally known as titan arum or Amorphophallus titanum, the plant is on display at the U.S. Botanic Garden, on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol.

Todd Brethauer, a volunteer public science educator at the Botanic Garden who narrates the video, explains that the flower uses its strong scent not to repel but to attract. The chemicals lure pollinators with a preference for rot ? dung beetles and other insects that lay their eggs in the equally stinky environments of decomposing animals.

After mustering energy underground in its tuber for more than six years, the plant emerged, grew to nearly 8 feet, and bloomed for the first time on July 21. Brethauer describes the resulting cocktail as having distinct notes of rotting onions, essence of spoiled fish and old sweaty socks.

The rare event drew more than 130,000 visitors in sweltering heat to catch a glimpse of the exotic plant. But only those lucky enough to show up within the day and a half of its opening witnessed the spectacular, ephemeral bloom. In dramatic fashion, the plant closed the night after it opened and, having exhausted its energy reserves trying to reproduce, completely collapsed a couple days later. The last time one of these unpredictable plants bloomed at the garden was in 2007.

Arctic Warming Could Cost Upwards of $60 Trillion - roughly the value of the entire 2012 global economy - says a new economic analysis, reports Andrew Freedman at Climate Central. This would result from the possible massive release of methane, a very potent but short-acting greenhouse gas, as frozen deposits melt between 2015 and 2025. The cost would outweigh by far any possible economic advantages of an ice-free Arctic. And the study doesn't even include the increase in global warming from the looming total loss of summer Arctic ice, a major heat shield for the planet.

European Investment Bank (EBI) to Stop Funding Coal Plants reports Jessica Shankleman at BusinessGreen. Nice, but the policy still allows funding of gas-fired plants. Green groups welcomed the policy change but noted it's not enough to cut emissions enough to keep within safe warming limits. Oh, well, it's a start ... keep prodding them, greenies!

Carbon Emissions To Increase By 50% By 2040 says a new US Energy Information Administration analysis, reports Andrew Freedman at Climate Central, assuming no new policies to curb emissions. This means more catastrophic climate change. Time to act, folks!

Month-Long Siberian Heatwave Hitting Near-Record Highs, reports Christopher Burt at Wunderground.com. This extraordinary prolonged heatwave in central Arctic Russia has brought 10 days or more of 80+ F temperatures to some parts due to a persistent 'heat dome' sitting over north central Siberia, like the 'heat dome' that caused the US heatwave. Over there it's causing tundra wildfires. Bikini time in the Big Borscht Belt!!

[iPad Mini] Financial implications of retina mini

Quote:

My question would be is Apple confident that people will continue to buy the mini without a retina display? Because a retina mini with perhaps slightly lower margins is better than no mini sale at all.

I agree completely. Apple is still in a superior position, but "no sale" is worse than "less margins." Android has a competing ecosystem, too; it isn't like people can buy into Android and then easily stick with Apple. Some people swap between the two very easily, but most don't. A lost sale goes beyond simply selling one "lower margin" device for Apple.

I also agree with your later post discussing the tech in the Android tablets. A lot of people make claims that pulling off a retina display for the iPad Mini would be too technically challenging, or that it would require too many compromises. The Android tablets are already showing that you can have displays with a very high pixel density (higher than "retina") and little to no compromise on the battery life. Apple is running their own hardware and have their own technical challenges to overcome, but the competition indicates that it is possible.

I am hoping that by the end of this year I'll be selling my iPad Mini to fund a new iPad Mini Retina. I am sure that an iPad Mini with retina display is coming at some point, but if Apple releases an updated iPad Mini that lacks a retina display I'll be a little bit worried for them.

Here is what the 42-year-old Game of Thrones actor had to share with the mag:

On why it took him so long to admit he wanted to act:?I always wanted to be an actor,but I just never told anyone. I had this superstition that if I said it out loud,it wouldn?t come true.?

On his favorite movie,Once Upon a Time in America: ?Here I was growing up in a tiny village in Denmark. And I?m identifying 100 percent with this gangster from New York. And I think how amazing would it be to explore human behavior in that same way.?

On how he prepares to shoot a scene: ?You have to be sharp when the camera?s rolling. I want to be totally unselfconscious,like a child playing. I do as much prep as possible so I can lose myself for those seconds.?

FYI: Nikolaj is wearing a Nudie Jeans top and jeans on the cover.

Vascular health and fitness are probably good indicators of a man's physical funtioning sexually.
In my opinion and experience, mental health is the best indicator of a man's physical functioning in a relationship. I do not regard pornography much past adolescence as a good indicator or breeding ground for a sexual relationship in real life.
