A phenom if ever there was one, Maurice Brown had people buzzing about his chops while he was still attending Hillcrest High School in Country Club Hills. In short order, he won a full music scholarship to Northern Illinois University, took top prize in the Miles Davis Trumpet Competition and established himself as a force to be reckoned with on the Chicago music scene. He was featured on recordings by Ernest Dawkins’ New Horizons Ensemble and Fred Anderson.
In equally short order, it seemed, he was gone. After studying with Louisiana legend Alvin Batiste at Southern University in Baton Rouge, he asserted himself in New Orleans, where he mixed it up with top local players, scored a weekly gig at the Snug Harbor jazz club and recorded his first album, Hip to Bop. Think of hard bop monsters Freddie Hubbard and Lee Morgan dipping into contemporary grooves, personalizing the sound with “wah wah” effects and such, and you’ll have a hint of what a blast of fresh air Brown was.
The next leg of his journey was set in motion by Hurricane Katrina, which he escaped with little more than his horn and his laptop. As captured in the documentary, Brass Movement: A Modern Love Story, he landed on his feet, and then some, in New York, where his talents were demanded by such artists as Aretha Franklin, Roy Hargrove, Talib Kweli, Diddy, Cee-Lo Green and rising Irish soul singer Laura Izibor. Whatever he’s playing, he creates instant excitement. A group with its own strong personality, the Maurice Brown Effect includes New Orleans saxophonist Derek Douget, pianist (and Chicago native) Chris Rob, bassist Solomon Dorsey and drummer Joe Blaxx.

This is the same timbercrete Wood effect paneling made out of wet cast concrete, difference is that it has been made out of white concrete - that means that the home owner doesn't need to paint this! This master piece was work of www.timbercrete.com and the moulds that made it possible came from www.armcon-online.com
La Lomografia, nonostante la pessima qualità, è tornata prepotentemente in auge nell’ultimo periodo. Merito del digitale, della filosofia, della moda. Devo ammettere che la mentalità Lomo e le sue regole fondamentali (riprese alla grande grazie a Instagr.am) mi affascinano parecchio. E quindi ho provato a giocare su questo dittico di Sara con un’azione PhotoShop che cerca di riprendere le caratteristiche della Lomografia; in questo caso non si parla di filosofia Lomo ma di risultato. E questa è anche l’ultima foto di Sara che pubblicherò. La più irriverente.

Funny how just one thing can cause so many other things to happen as a result. It's really crazy when it actually happens to you... and there's nothing you can do about it.
This interesting weekend has been my inspiration for this photo, and I really like how it turned out.

I learned this from flickr member, Juan (www.flickr.com/photos/juanjoispolo/). This is too blurry. Here's how I do it because I'm limited with CS3. And you can play around with these steps.
Duplicate background layer. Desaturate it.
Filter>dust and scratches until it looks right. Lower to 50% opacity. IF YOU HAVE CC USE THE CAMERA RAW FILTER AND PUT CLARITY AT MAXIMUM.
Duplicate THAT layer, blending mode Saturation.
Use layer mask to bring out color.

How chemical pollution is threatening our survival
The Book was first published January 1st 1997 under the original title: "Altering Eden : the feminization of nature".
With the world population now exceeding six billion, it may seem strange that scientists are worried about threats to human fertility. Yet dramatic decreases in human sperm counts (a 50% decline since the 1940s) and soaring rates of testicular cancer suggest that there is cause for concern.
Science journalist Deborah Cadbury, here expanding her Emmy-winning Horizon program "Assault on the Male," presents evidence that the widespread use of synthetic chemicals has disrupted our and other animals' natural hormonal systems, in effect flooding them with megadoses of estrogen-like substances that "feminize" males and contribute to breast cancer and myriad other problems.
The list of suspect chemicals is alarming: DES, DDT, PCBs, plastics (used in everything from washing machines to dental sealants and food packaging), even birth-control pills. Traces of these substances have been detected in soil, water, wildlife and humans from around the globe, and have been implicated in such conditions as animal hermaphroditism, impaired sperm quality, microphallus, prostate cancer, endometriosis and even impaired intelligence.
How researchers began to recognize the problem and piece together its clues is a compelling and frightening story, which Cadbury tells with journalistic verve. Though she admits that a definite causal relationship between chemical exposure and reproductive abnormalities has not yet been proven, she finds the evidence compelling. This is a chilling account of industrialization's adverse - and perhaps irreversible - effects.
