CBG (Cannabigerol) is one of the many cannabinoids produced by the cannabis plant which can be found in hemp and cannabis.
It is commonly known as the mother of all cannabinoids due to the fact that all other cannabinoids are derived from cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), an acidic form of CBG.
Cannabis (high THC) plants synthesise more enzymes that convert CBG to THC. Whereas hemp has more enzymes that convert CBG to CBD. This means hemp does not contain high levels of THC, and generally, cannabis does not contain high levels of CBD.
Over 100 phytocannabinoids (a cannabinoid produced by plants) have been identified in cannabis as well as other phytochemicals, including terpenoids and flavonoids.
How does CBG interact with the body?
CBG, like most other cannabinoids, works by interacting with the endocannabinoid system (ECS). This system is composed of two types of receptors — CB1 and CB2.
The role of the ECS is to promote homeostasis and balance throughout the body. All living organisms including humans have an Endocannabinoid system, except some insects.
So what is the Endocannabinoid System?
‘The ECS regulates and controls many of our most critical bodily functions such as:
- Learning and memory
- Emotional processing
- Temperature control
- Pain control
- Inflammatory and immune responses
Click here to read our full article on the Endocannabinoid system.
So, simply put.
CBG is non-psychoactive with some similar features to CBD and THC due to its interaction with cannabinoid receptors.
CBG binds to both types of cannabinoid receptors, but it doesn’t activate them. That makes it functionally different from THC, which binds and activates them — nor like CBD, which doesn’t directly bind to either of these receptors.
In fact, some researchers believe it may help mitigate the paranoia or anxiety sometimes reported by patients who use high THC-containing products.
While it won’t get you high, it can produce a mild cognitive effect similar to delta 8 THC. You may feel more in-tune or focused on whatever you’re working on without overstimulating your brain too much.
That’s why CBG has become the next big thing to boost concentration and productivity among neurohackers, biohackers, and other health-conscious users.
Studies have shown CBG may be able to improve the following health conditions:
- Inflammatory bowel disease. CBG seems to reduce the inflammation associated with inflammatory bowel disease, according to a 2013 study conducted on mice.
- Glaucoma. Medical cannabis seems to effectively treat glaucoma, and CBG might be partly responsible for its efficacy. A study published in 2008 suggests that CBG might be effective in treating glaucoma because it reduces intraocular pressure.
- Bladder dysfunctions. Some cannabinoids seem to affect the contractions of the bladder. A 2015 study looked at how five different cannabinoids affect the bladder, and it concluded that CBG shows the most promise at treating bladder dysfunctions.
- Huntington’s disease. CBG might have neuroprotective properties, according to a 2015 study that looked at mice with a neurodegenerative condition called Huntington’s disease. The study concluded that CBG might show promise in treating other neurodegenerative conditions.
- Bacterial infections. A 2008 study suggests that CBG can kill bacteria, particularly methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which causes drug-resistant staph infections. These infections can be hard to treat and fairly dangerous.
- Cancer. A 2014 study looked at colon cancer in rats and concluded that CBG might reduce the growth of cancer cells and other tumors.
- Appetite loss. A 2016 study on rats suggested that CBG could stimulate the appetite. Appetite stimulating chemicals could be used to help those with conditions such as HIV or cancer.
Whilst these are all promising studies, as with all cannabinoids, much more research is needed.
Is CBG Legal?
CBG is perfectly legal, it is not a controlled substance and classed as a non-psychoactive cannabinoid.
There are also fewer regulations for CBG as there are for CBD, which is both a blessing and a curse. The blessing is no silly Novel food regulations imposed, the curse is ensuring the product you are receiving is actually CBG. We suggest always checking the Certificate of Analysis and buying from a reputable company.
As you can see there is much promise for CBG, maybe even more than CBD due to the unique way it interacts with the CB1 and CB2 receptors. More studies are being done, as the Laws surrounding cannabis/hemp relax and its medicinal properties are increasingly valued.

Cardi B Opens Up About Early Body Image
Cardi B has opened up about early insecurities with her body in a candid conversation with pop superstar Mariah Carey for the March issue of Interview.
“I’m Trini and I’m Dominican, and there’s a lot of Dominicans that look a certain type of way. They have soft, pretty, curly hair,” Cardi explained. “Growing up, guys would ask me weird questions like, 'If you’re Dominican, why is your hair so nappy?’ I used to dye my hair, and people used to be like, ‘Oh, your hair’s so crunchy.’ And it would make me feel so weird.
“I was also really skinny when I was younger, and in the Bronx, it’s about being thick and having an ass, so young boys would be like, ‘Look at your flat ass. You ain’t got no titties.’ And it would make me feel so ugly and undeveloped.”
The 28-year-old rap star recalled making changes to her body while working as a stripper a decade ago.
“When I was 18 and became a dancer, I had enough money to afford to buy boobs, so every insecurity that I felt about my breasts was gone,” she said. “When I was 20, I went to the urban strip club, and in the urban strip clubs, you had to have a big butt. So I felt insecure about that. It took me back to high school. So I got my ass done. And then I felt super confident.”
Cardi told Carey she is working on a follow-up to her debut album Invasion of Privacy, which came out in 2018.
“I feel like I’m missing some songs,” she said. “Everybody’s rushing me to put it out, but I don’t know if it’s the right time.”

Fair vendors celebrate 30 years of serving community
PERRY, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT)- The Georgia National Fair is celebrating its 30 year anniversary with events happening the whole length of the fair.
Vendors like Grannies Apple Dumplings have served fairgoers since day one. They are known for their sweet treats and friendly service.
Other vendors such as Hopkins Food Service, VFW Post 6125, and Walker Rhodes Tractor have also served fairgoers over the years.
Walker Rhodes Tractor is located in Perry and owned by Foster Rhodes. The company deals in agriculture equipment, however, Rhodes says they give children at the fair a chance to take pictures on the tractors.
Rhodes says what he enjoys the most about the fair is “fellowship with families”.
At Thursday’s opening ceremony, those vendors who celebrated 30 years with the fair received awards.
“I plan on being a vendor at the fair until they kick me out,” Rhodes said.
Other 30 year vendors include:
- Cox Concessions
- Perfection Confection
- Southern Guild

Officials from the Delaware County Adult Probation & Parole Department allegedly exchanged alarming emails throughout the years, and we have learned that select high-ranking departmental officials refer to African Americans as “niggers” who ensure “airtight job security.”
Through nearly 50 filings under the state’s Right to Know Law, we requested an opportunity to inspect electronic communications between all Delaware County law enforcement agencies following a news tip submitted, claiming an individual who was a former probationer was mistakenly carbon copied on a racist e-mail exchange. The e-mail has not been independently verified by yc.news, and the county refused multiple requests for comment.
Though a majority of the requests are still in litigation, we obtained an e-mail message sent in 2015 between several county officials and a current department supervisor, where they allegedly accidentally carbon copied a probationer. The chain appeared to pertain to an individual with intentions to apply for a position within the department, but they were told they had to change their voting registration to complete the application process.
“Good morning,” the high-ranking Delaware County Adult Probation & Parole Supervisor allegedly wrote in an e-mail to three other county officials and third parties. “You do not have to worry about job security … ROFL … so long as there’s a nigger in our county, you will have a full slate.”
We reached out to Delaware County District Attorney Katayoun Copeland’s Office nearly two months ago regarding accusations of official misconduct against law enforcement officers at the county level, but she has remained silent on the issue.
“Just make sure he registers as a [redacted] before applying, they’re extremely strict about that. Can’t have a bunch of [gang-bang] loving [redacted] in here … ha.”
According to well-over two dozen county officials – all applicants in Delaware County must register as a Republican to be considered for a position. Further, there are no African American individuals employed by the Delaware County Department of Adult Probation & Parole, and 1% of the Delaware County District Attorney’s Office is made up of African Americans.
“This is further proof of what the FBI has stated,” film producer and author Tariq Nasheed told us in a statement. “Law enforcement has been thoroughly infiltrated by white supremacists, and there is a need for the government to take corrective actions to remedy this.”
Those who are registered with any political party other than republican have an alarming 0% chance of earning a position at virtually all Delaware County agencies.
The Delaware County Department of Probation & Parole has refused to turn over any electronic communications, but the Pennsylvania Supreme Court is expected to weigh in on Original Media Group Corporation’s request and rule on the matter mid-summer.
The Delaware County Council stood by District Attorney Copeland and remained silent on the issue. Director Michael W. Raith, Esq. of the Delaware County Adult Probation & Parole Department declined to respond to requests for comment over the last three weeks.
We have turned over the e-mail communication the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania to investigate the allegation, per their request.


text: Inflammatory fibroid polyps (IFPs) are mesenchymal tumours which arise in the submucosa and mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract. To date, the pathogenesis is unknown and IFPs are considered reactive and non-neoplastic lesions. Investigating a series of 23 IFPs, we made the observation that the tumours consistently express PDGFRA. To further elucidate the pathogenetic role of PDGFRA, we performed mutational analyses of exons 10, 12, 14, and 18. As IFPs are characterized by an inflammatory infiltrate rich in eosinophils, we used fluorescence in situ hybridization in a subset of tumours to investigate a possible FIP1L1-PDGFRA translocation which is known as the cause of hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES). Sixteen IFPs (70%) harboured activating mutations in exons 12 and 18, respectively: V561D (n = 1), R560SDelta561-567 (n = 1), Delta559-561D591H (n = 1), S566RDelta567-571 (n = 3), D842V (n = 7), D842I (n = 1), Delta842-845 (n = 1), and Delta845-848 (n = 1). These mutations equal pathogenic mutations detected in gastrointestinal stromal tumours previously. Activating mutations in exons 10 and 14 were not noted. None of the cases revealed the FIP1L1-PDGFRA translocation. Considering the remarkable number of activating mutations detected in our series, we conclude that the vast majority of IFPs harbour gain-of-function mutations in the PDGFRA gene. The presence of PDGFRA mutations questions the reactive nature of IFPs and raises the possibility of a neoplastic process.

This month a report was published by CottonConnect on the state of cotton farming in China. The world’s largest and fastest-growing cotton market faces significant production challenges. Overused and polluted soil, China’s emerging water crisis and a changing rural demography are examples of the issues at hand. CottonConnect, a company that aims to make cotton supply chains sustainable, identifies an opportunity in these challenges for creating a more sustainable cotton market in China, both socio-economically and environmentally. For example, China’s politics are currently aimed at incorporating sustainability in its agricultural and textile sectors. In the country’s 12th Five Year Plan, expectations for a greener and more productive agriculture, as well as better water protection and rural regeneration are laid out. Thus, the report states, “A clear opportunity exists for brands to demonstrate leadership and safeguard their license to operate in China.”
Not limited to China, the international cotton market today faces several challenges. Known as the “thirsty crop”, cotton accounts for 2.6% of the world’s yearly water usage and 8-10% of all pesticides in the world are used on cotton fields. The run-off from these fields causes serious pollution, as well as soil degradation, erosion and depletion. The use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) makes up about 66% of total global cotton production, leading to concerns about seed diversity, ecological balance and “super weeds”. Besides environmental impact, the cotton industry has often received negative media attention concerning low standard working conditions and child labor.
These challenges need to be addressed to build a prosperous cotton market that is sustainable in the long run. NewForesight drives sustainable market transformations such as this one. In our theory on sustainable market transformations, we discern four stages towards a sustainable market. The cotton sector is currently in the second phase. The second phase is characterized by first movers and competition. So-called first-moving companies start to realize environmental and social responsibility goes beyond immediate self-interest, and also see a competitive advantage if they take on a leading role. Sector leaders such as H&M, C&A and Nike recognize the use of sustainable cotton as a competitive advantage and have already made public commitments to sustainability. They started working towards a sustainable supply chain in collaboration with standards and certifications organizations such as Organic, Fairtrade, Cotton Made in Africa, and BCI (the sector roundtable).
The cotton market is clearly on the move and a more sustainable sector is in sight. The question is now who will come up with the winning formula. There is no shortage of initiatives that are willing to lead the way. For example the aforementioned CottonConnect that works on more sustainable cotton throughout the whole supply chain. The organization operates on a strategic level, developing and building cotton strategies, as well as on an operational level, implementing community investment programs. Another initiative, the Better Cotton Initiative, is a non-profit, multi-stakeholder organization that organizes the efforts of very large stakeholders such as Walmart and Ikea in defining and implementing the production of “Better Cotton”. Also, last year the Organic Cotton Accelerator was launched. This multi-stakeholder initiative aims to work with the entire value chain in a pre-competitive space to find and fund innovative ways to strengthen the chain and increase supply to meet the rising demand for organic cotton.
Initiatives like the ones mentioned above are crucial in taking the next step towards a sustainable sector. We see the cotton market moving towards the third phase of a sustainable market transformation: the Critical Mass phase. In this phase industry realizes that singular projects and programs are not enough to achieve sector sustainability and collaboration is in order to discuss pre-competitive issues. Instead of a single company certifying their production according to a production standard set by a voluntary sustainability standard such as Fairtrade or Organic, multiple companies start working together to change baseline conditions. Leading market brands are coming together to strategize on and implement more sustainable ways of production in collaboration. Multi-stakeholder initiatives such as the Better Cotton Initiative are creating momentum and opening the door for sector-wide strategies that have the power to systematically change the way cotton is produced. NewForesight is looking forward to contributing to this sustainable sector transformation in the making.

The NBA Draft Lottery is an annual event held by the NBA, where the teams who did not make the playoffs in the past year participate in a state-lottery style process in order to determine the first three picks of the draft, until The NBA introduced the lottery process in The league was attempting to counter accusations that certain teams were purposefully losing in order to gain a chance to participate in the annual coin flip, where the worst team in each division flips a coin to see who will receive the first pick in the upcoming draft.
In the lottery system, the league uses "a lottery-style ping-pong ball machine with 14 balls numbered 1—14, and 1, four-digit combinations are assigned to the 14 lottery teams.
Starting in , the three worst teams receive combinations each, the fourth worst , and so on. Those three teams will have an equal chance of winning the top overall pick.
After the first four picks are determined, the rest of the teams are ordered in reverse order based on their record in the previous season, like in the previous system.
The lottery is generally held in the third or fourth week of May. The NBA goes to great lengths in order to keep the selection process both fair and not tampered with in any way.
To counteract this, the NBA implemented an age requirement in that made it so high school seniors were no longer eligible for the draft, unless they were declared as postgraduates by the league.
This would not happen until with Indian prospect Satnam Singh Bhamara in the second round and again in with South Sudanese—Australian prospect Thon Maker in the first round.

Topic: Latino/a/xs and Environmental Justice: Where do we go from here?
What is your climate story? Over the last few years, we have seen direct and some times tragic evidence of how the health of our planet affects us directly. We have also seen how our personal and community actions may not be having the impact we may wish for. How do we move to the next step of what we can do? What would be the next most impactful action to take if we could? Our Latino/a/x communities are disproportionately and heavily affected by the changes that a warming climate is causing in industries like agriculture and construction, as well as heavily impacted by hurricanes and climate-related illnesses and displacement. As we close this year’s Mes de la Hispanidad/Hispanic Heritage Month, let’s talk about climate and environmental activism in our community and how to best impact our future.

Dear Abby: My letter is intended for all those, young and old, who might be tempted to try cocaine.
I was 35 years old and going through a bad time in my life when someone I thought was my friend gave me some cocaine and said, "Try it. It will make you feel better."I should have known better. At a young age, I had worked at the New Hampshire State Hospital and saw for myself what drugs do to people. However, I was feeling low and thought, "Well, once won't hurt."
Let me tell you what happened to me. I lost a good-paying job with General Electric. I sold everything I owned. Then I sank so low I started stealing from friends, family and strangers to support my habit.
I lost my beautiful home, all respect for myself, and the respect of my children and grandchildren.
I am now in prison for the second time and will be doing a lot of time for theft and selling illegal substances.
Please print this. It might help all those people who think a little cocaine can't hurt. And send me a copy in care of the New Hampshire State Prison in Goffstown, N.H. Please use my name.
- Mrs. Elizabeth Hill
Dear Mrs. Hill: It is unfortunate that you will never know how many people (young and old) you have helped because you had the courage to write this letter. God bless you.
Dear Abby: This is for the "T.J. in San Diego" who asked what she should say to people who told her she would be much better-looking without her glasses.
I had the same problem with a family friend years ago. Every time he saw me, he mentioned how much prettier I would look without glasses.
One day I got so fed up, I obliged him by removing my glasses. Then I said, "I don't know if I look any better, but YOU certainly do!"
- Four Eyes in Florida
Dear Four eyes: The first time I heard that one, I kicked the slats out of my crib, but it's still a snappy comeback.
I am reminded of a college contemporary who said she liked to date guys who wore glasses because when they took them off, she knew they meant business! Read on for another response:
Dear Abby: Do you remember that little ditty, "Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses," attributed to the late Dorothy Parker, American poet and short-story writer?
The late Dorothy Kilgallen, an equally witty newspaper woman who appeared on "What's My Line," countered with: "Men who seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses are asses."
- Four Eyes in Fort Worth
Dear Abby: Recently you advised against sending a gift in a box from a fancy store. It brought back a story I would like to relate:
Linda was opening her gifts at her bridal shower when she noticed a large, expensive-looking box tied with a fancy satin bow. The box had the name of a famous French fashion designer.
The gift card read: "Wear this on your wedding night and you will have a long and happy marriage. Love, Grandmother."
Eagerly, Linda opened the box - to find it was empty!

Monday marked a last-minute push by dozens of candidates to spread the word about why they would do a better job than their opponents if they're chosen in today's primary election. Voting is from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. at local precincts.
Early voting came to a close at 5 p.m. at the Jefferson County Courthouse, with 2,987 people casting ballots during a two-week period. Under a bright red tent set up beside Barraque Street Monday afternoon, supporters of several candidates made their choices known by waving signs and handing out information cards.
Jefferson County voters will have to make a choice of which election (Republican or Democrat) they want to vote in today.
“A voter is entitled to vote in the political party primary of their choice, the Republican or Democrat primary,” said Jefferson County Election Commission Secretary Stuart “Stu” Soffer.
“They do not have to have any affiliation whatsoever with the political party in whose primary they want to vote. Moreover, in the November general election, they are not obligated to vote for the candidate representing the political party whose primary they voted in.”
Soffer further explained that, “for example, if you want to have a say in the four contested county official races (i.e., county judge, sheriff, tax collector and coroner), you will have to vote in the Democrat primary. Conversely, if you want to have a say in the 4th Congressional District or Secretary of State race, you will have to vote in the Republican primary. Both political parties have contested governor's races. It is a simple matter of asking for the Republican or Democrat ballot when you check in to vote.
“Be aware if a voter votes in the Republican primary and there is a runoff in the Democrat primary, it is a felony offense to crossover vote. So make your decision before arriving at the poll. If you are unsure, view the sample ballots posted on a wall before checking in.”
In one of this election's biggest local races, former Jefferson County Judge Dutch King and Jefferson County Sheriff Gerald Robinson, who is retiring at the end of this year, are vying for county judge in the Democratic Primary. No Republicans filed for the seat.
Robinson said in a text message on Monday afternoon that he is “very confident about (the election). I have given and continue to do my best! I continue to stand and believe that the voters recognize my leadership ability and want me to be the next Jefferson County Judge! I ask that our voters go to their perspective precincts and cast their vote for Gerald Robinson's proven Leadership for a New Direction.”
King said via telephone that he has been “reaching out to as many people as we can find, and we appreciate all the efforts and all we put into this campaign. This campaign is strictly about Jefferson County. We have so many people to be thankful for, and we are appreciative to all the help and kind words and encouragement. We are really blessed.”
King said the election is “in God's hands, and his will will decide whatever will be done. And that's fine with me.”
In the race for Jefferson County sheriff, also on the Democratic ticket, current sheriff's Maj. Lafayette Woods Jr will take on former deputy Larry Gragg and retired Arkansas State Trooper Roger McLemore.
Tony Washington and Leslie Elizondo Mitchell are vying for the Jefferson County tax collectors seat in the Democratic Primary. Current Tax Collector Stephanie Stanton is retiring at the end of the year.
Jefferson County Coroner Chad Kelley will take on Christian Westbrook on the Democratic ticket. Incumbent District 1 Justice of the Peace Morris Caldwell is being challenged by former JP Alfred Carroll Sr. on the Democrat side.
Incumbent District 4 Justice of the Peace Mandy Alford is being challenged by former Jefferson County Clerk Patricia Royal Johnson in the Democratic Primary. In District 13, former Justice of the Peace Edward Spears, who is trying to get his job back, will take on current JP Brenda Bishop Gaddy on the Democratic ticket.
Three contested Pine Bluff City Council races will also appear on the Democratic Party ballot. In Ward 1, Position 2, Joni Alexander will take on Alderwoman Thelma Walker and Milton Jenkins.
In Ward 3, Position 2, retired Pine Bluff Police Chief Ivan Whitfield is challenging former Alderman Glen Brown Sr. and incumbent Bill Brumett. In Ward 4, Position 2, incumbent Alderman Steven Mays has drawn opposition from Clarence Edward Davis.
The only statewide primary on the Democratic Party ballot will be the party's nominee for governor, with Leticia Sanders being placed in the top spot on the ballot while Jared K. Henderson will be second.
There will also be a Republican Party primary for governor. In that contest, incumbent Governor Asa Hutchinson will be second on the ballot and his challenger, Jan Morgan, will be first.
For Arkansas secretary of state, State Rep. Trevor Drown is taking on Arkansas Commissioner of State Lands John Thurston on the Republican ticket.
Also on the Republican Party primary ballot will be a contest for U.S. Congress in the First District, a race for secretary of state, for state representative District 14 and for justice of the peace District 10. Incumbent Congressman Rick Crawford will be placed in the number one spot on the ballot, and his challenger, Chintan Desai, will be in the second position.
Current District 14 Representative Roger Lynch won the top spot while his challenger, Christina (Chris) Jones, will be second. In the justice of the peace contest, current District 10 JP Dr. Conley F. Byrd Jr. will be number one on the ballot and his challenger, Richard Saucier Sr., will be number two.
Tuesday's ballot will also feature a non-partisan race for the state Supreme Court that's been dominated over the past few weeks by a spending blitz from out-of-state conservative groups that's prompted a court fight over one of the group's ads. Two judges gave conflicting orders about the Judicial Crisis Network's ad attacking Justice Courtney Goodson, with one ordering Little Rock area stations to stop running the spot and another ruling it could air in northwest Arkansas.
Goodson, who is running against state Appeals Court Judge Kenneth Hixson and Department of Human Services Chief Counsel David Sterling, filed three lawsuits aimed at halting the ads. The conservative group has spent more than $871,000 on TV ads targeting Goodson and Hixson, according to the Brennan Center for Justice.
Goodson said the ruling helps level the playing field against the outside spending, but said she believed there was already pushback from voters to the ads.
“Voters don't like it and they have good noses. They can smell a rat here, and that rat is dark money,” she said.
Hixson also vented frustration about the ads targeting him.
“Negative advertising has always worked, and it's working now,” Hixson said. “I've probably gotten 50 calls at my office telling me what a jerk I am and what a sorry person I am, so I'm pretty hot right now.”
If no one wins a majority of the vote in the high court race, the top two candidates advance to a runoff in the November election. Another group, the Republican State Leadership Committee, has spent more than $564,000 on TV ads and mailers supporting Sterling. Sterling said he's not connected to either group's ads and said he's focusing on his own campaign.
“They do have a constitutional right to speak just like anybody else in this race. I'm just not involving myself in their dispute they have with either one of the parties,” Sterling said.

Jacqui Lambie to decide on PUP by next week
RENEGADE Palmer United Party Senator Jacqui Lambie is expected to make a decision about whether to leave the party next week.
Sen Lambie confirmed on Thursday she would return to Tasmania and seek legal and parliamentary advice on her future with the PUP party.
The senator told reporters in Canberra she would make sure she had gleaned advice in "every area" before she decided if she would continue with the party.
Her comments follow a disruptive week for Clive Palmer's party, after Sen Lambie rejected the party's position on financial advice laws to help other non-government senators vote down planned government changes.
The vote in the Senate on Wednesday came after Mr Palmer suspended Sen Lambie from party room meetings and expelled her from senior parliament roles with the PUP.
Sen Lambie had not spoken to her party colleagues for several weeks.

The burden of Egypt. Behold, the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it. And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom. (Isaiah 19:1-2)
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.(Matthew 24:6-7)
Egypt, the largest Arab nation in the world, is currently erupting into a bloody civil war. The factions are the Egyptian military, the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) and the embattled Egyptian people. In the crossfire are the suffering remnant of Coptic christians, whose rights had been somewhat protected under Mubarak, but who have been openly persecuted under the MB.
The transformation of Egypt has long been regarded as one of the centerpieces of the foreign policy of the Obama administration. Egypt’s recent upheaval began with the unprecedented Obama speech at Al Azhar University* in Cairo in 2009. At the time, the Muslim Brotherhood was a suppressed dissident group in Egypt, but Obama insisted that the MB be brought into the event, over the protestations of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.
Events which have since ensued in Egypt; the Islamist inspired “Arab Spring” , the toppling of our longtime ally and peace Partner with Israel, Mubarak, the Egyptian election of US backed Islamist, Mohammed Morsi, the open persecution of the Egyptian Copts by the MB, the over run of our Egyptian US Embassy, and burning of the American flag on 9-11, and recently the ouster of Morsi by the Egyptian Army.
As of now, Egypt has descended into a bloody civil war, as outraged MB mobs assemble to face down the Egyptian army in order to violently re-install Morsi, the MB candidate. Yesterday, 623 MB supporters were killed in confrontations with the Egyptian army, and thousands were injured in the clashes.
The MB has been avenging itself in a typical cowardly fashion, by the wholesale killing of indigenous christians, (Copts), the rape of Coptic and Catholic nuns, the kidnapping of christian children (pre-teen girls, for marriage and ‘conversion’)and the burning of christian churches. Egypt is descending into a nightmare scenario.
The Word of God has much to say about this supremely influential Arab nation in the last days. The prognosis for Egypt is both terrifying and bright. Egypt is slated to suffer a harsh night of tribulation before the breaking of the dawn, according to Isaiah and Ezekiel.
We can see by comparing our opening scriptures, that ss a judgment from God, a terrible civil war will break out in Egypt, with much violence and destruction. Jesus was quoting Isaiah 19, the vision of Egypt, in the sermon on the last days, on the Mount of Olives, in Matthew 24. The difference is that Jesus applies the description of the Civil War in Egypt, to the situation throughout the whole world.
In that day shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be afraid and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shaketh over it.And the land of Judah shall be a terror unto Egypt, every one that maketh mention thereof shall be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the LORD of hosts, which he hath determined against it.(Isaiah 19:16-17)
Egypt has been seized by a mortal fear, particularly of the Jews, and God himself is in that fear. Keep in mind that Egypt was point man for the Arab world in four major modern wars with the state of Israel. The Arab coalition enjoyed the advantage of superior numbers, firepower, transport and supplies, yet in each war were soundly defeated. Of course Israel alone didn’t defeat Egypt and the others, the God of Israel did!
The lead hijacker of the 9-11 plot was an Egyptian, Mohammed Atta. An Egyptian pediatrician, Ayman Al Zawahiri is the late Osama Bin Ladin’s right hand man. The Muslim world has in the modern world been radicalized by the writings of Egyptians Sayyid Qutb, and Hassan Al Banna. In short, the Egyptian people are very influential in the current terrorization of the world in the name of Allah.
Egypt has a time of reckoning coming before she can be healed. But Egypt will eventually be healed,
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee. And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it. Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.(Ezekiel 29:8-10)
Radical, violent, anti west, anti christian, Anti Jewish Islam is going to rule over the largest Arab population in the world. Already the newly liberated from Mubarek Egyptian population met in the streets of Cairo by the hundreds of thousands, to hail the once exiled fundamentalist preacher Qadrawi, who called for a march on Jerusalem.
Something soon is going to happen in Egypt that is so awful, Egyptians will have to flee their own land and live as refugees . The land will be rendered uninhabitable for forty years!
No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years. And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.(Ezekiel 29:11-12)
But Prophecy asserts that Egypt will in the end turn to the living God, and drop Islam once and for all. God says He will make himself known to the Egyptians, and that they will turn to Him in a time of great distress. In mercy God will reveal himself to them.
And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto the LORD because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them. And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto the LORD, and perform it.(Isaiah 19:21-22)
Consequently the Egyptians will make peace with Israel, and after some time, (probably during the millennium), return en mass to their own land.They will be trading partners and brothers, the Egyptians, Israel, and Iraqis.
In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.(Isaiah 19:23-25)
Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered.(Ezekiel 29:13)
In the millennium, Egypt is directly addressed by the Lord Himself. He warns her to make sure she is in attendance at the Feast of Tabernacles, lest he withhold rain from her. Thus, there is a glorious future for Egypt, after the long night.
Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the LORD Almighty, and to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles. If any of the peoples of the earth do not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD Almighty, they will have no rain. If the Egyptian people do not go up and take part, they will have no rain..”(Zechariah 14).

Integration of Online and Offline Channels in Retail: The Impact of Sharing Reliable Inventory Availability Information
36 Pages Posted: 20 Sep 2012 Last revised: 10 Sep 2014
Date Written: January 31, 2014
Using a proprietary dataset, we analyze the impact of the implementation of a “buy-online, pickup-in-store” (BOPS) project. The implementation of this project is associated with a reduction in online sales and an increase in store sales and traffic. These results can be explained by two simultaneous phenomena: (1) additional store sales from customers who use the BOPS functionality and buy additional products in the stores (cross-selling effect) and (2) the shift of some customers from the online to the brick-and-mortar channel and the conversion of noncustomers into store customers (channel-shift effect). We explain these channel shift patterns as an increase in “research online, purchase offline” (ROPO) behavior enabled by BOPS implementation, and we validate this explanation with evidence from the change of cart abandonment and conversion rates of the brick-and-mortar and online channels. We interpret these results in light of recent operations management literature that analyzes the impact of sharing inventory availability information. Our analysis illustrates the limitations of drawing conclusions about complex interventions using single-channel data.

“I recently had some new sod installed and see that some of the areas are browning out. I have been watering the sod. Can you help me determine what has gone wrong and if it will recover?”
— Bill Hart, Riverwoods
The problem with getting your new sod established is most likely due to how you are watering.
Installing sod over the last few weeks, with high temperatures and very little rain, underscored the importance of good watering practices to get the sod to establish.
One can get good results installing sod during the height of summer, providing it is watered well. Depending on the weather conditions, you should be watering new sod once about every two to three days until you see it start to grow. At that point, you can reduce watering to a couple times a week if weather remains hot.
As fall weather cools off, the frequency of watering new sod can be decreased, though it is still very important to deeply water it each time. In most situations, I have found it possible to reduce watering of new sod to once a week within the first three weeks of installation, with weather having significant impact on timing.
Once you have mowed the new sod a couple times, you should be able to reduce watering to the same watering routine as the rest of your lawn.
Watering new sod properly requires watering deeply enough to soak through the roots of the sod into the soil beneath so it will begin rooting into the soil. New sod will start to turn an off-green color when it is too dry, and that is an excellent early warning sign for you to check out the area that is off-color.
I have found that most new installations of sod that are turning an off-green color simply need more water. Once it turns mostly brown, you will need to replace it.
One can also run into problems trying to establish sod on a site that has not been prepared properly. The soil needs to be loosened and leveled, with any large clods of soil and other debris removed to provide good contact with the rolls of sod when they are installed. Rolls of sod that are installed without good soil contact can also develop brown sections, as the grass cannot root into the soil.

Jabiluka activists meet
By Lachlan Malloch
CANBERRA — A national conference of environment activists committed to stopping the Jabiluka uranium mine was held here on June 27-28.
Most of the 25 participants are leaders of the Wilderness Society, which organised the conference, Friends of the Earth, the WA Greens, and the NT Environment Centre. A small number of activists from Jabiluka Action Groups in Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra and Melbourne also attended.
The meeting heard reports from and discussed the blockade at the mine site and last month's application by the Mirrar people to the World Heritage Bureau to have Kakadu listed as a World Heritage area "in danger".
The conference also discussed a report on the campaign to force Westpac to withdraw its investment in the uranium mine.
Proposals for public actions in major cities on Hiroshima Day, August 8, and for a national day of action against Westpac were endorsed.

Squill are bulb plants that grow in the winter months. When they bloom they spread out quite rapidly. They cover the ground and look like a light blue carpet. They are pretty enough to warm up the coldest of winter days.
While some varieties of this plant grow in the spring, Persian Squill grows during the winter. Since they are a ground covering flower, they grow close to the ground reaching only about 5 inches in height.

|Sparrow Avenue, Canadian Wildlife Animal Pouches|
Perhaps it was the drive to Ottawa or perhaps it was all the walking we did, not only to familiarize ourselves with the city, but to be touristy and enjoy the sights nevertheless, we were tired every night. An added plus though, was that the Airbnb where we stayed was mostly vacant but for the two sweet cats.
There weren't too many moments where I could stop to take pictures. And that's a good thing as keeping busy is key to having those long hours go by quickly.

ONE SHOT – A pretty little golden flower whose head is filled with nothing but idle daydreams. Or so it seems, but haven't you heard that you can't judge a book by its cover? (slight Sasuke/Ino)
Like all of my work this is just something that happened to float through the empty void inside my head. Like it or hate it please R and R as honest opinions are always welcomed, as are random acts of worship.
Lamb: This is an idea that's been floating around in my head for ages, ever since I saw the way a lot of people hate on Ino. So I decided to use their ignorance to me own advantage.
Muse: You know I have no idea what she's talking about. But then I don't think anyone ever does.
Dedi: Uh-hu. Well this fic is dedicated to Yoruichi 'Ino' as a lot of the inspiration for it came from reading what she had to say about Ino on her profile page. So Yoruichi 'Ino', this is for you.
Lamb: As always sorry for any bad spelling and if you feel the need to throw things at me please wait until I've hidden behind the sofa kay!?
Muse: On with the fic!
Look at me,
You can take it all because this face is free,
Maybe next time use your eyes and look at me,
I'm a drama queen if that's your thing baby,
I can even do reality,
It is yet another of those gorgeous sunny summer Konoha days that seem to last all year round. The sky is the perfect porcelain chin blue that seems to stretch on forever, with so much as a whisp of cloud to spoil the view. On days like that it is easy to forget that most of the people who inhabit this place are highly skilled ninja; trained killing machines.
In the bustling Market Square a young blonde woman sits on a wall watching the world pass by. At first glance she looks like the stereotypical Barbie doll. Long platinum blonde hair pulled into a high ponytail with a few strands left free falling into light pupiless baby blue eyes. Her face is flawlessly made up, black mascara coats long thick lashes, a shimmer of gold accentuates her high cheek bones and a light clear gloss adorns her full lips.
Her outfit is perfectly designed to show off her slim athletic body. A short dark purple skirt shows off the amazing length of her leg and from where she has been sat down it has ridden up just a little too far to be considered descant. Her holter neck top, also in the dark purple shade that complements her fair skin, reveals to the North much cleavage and to the South the bright stone glittering in her navel.
People walking past look at the attractive female who is seemingly flaunting herself without shame. Some shoot covetous looks in her direction, while others blatantly stare lust showing clearly in greedy eyes and hungry mouths and some glances that come her way are filled with venom and spite. She responds to them all the same, giving the sweet slightly vacant smile that she spent years in front of the mirror perfecting.
To those who don't know her and even to most the do she is the very image of the superficial dumb blonde. Those who think kindly of her, the friends that know no better say of her that she is sweet and carrying person, attractive as hell, she's just not what you'd call smart and maybe becoming a ninja was not the right thing for her to do. After all ninja are meant to be cunning, able to quickly evaluate a situation and come up with a plan. They must think on their feet and that's not something that can be learned by sitting before a mirror. But still, they say, you have to admit she is a beauty even if she isn't quite as intelligent as she could be.
Then there are those people whose looks are filled with hatred and whose words are cruel and meant to hurt. In voices that they do not bother to lower they say of the blonde that she is nothing more than a common whore. Snide comments are made about how she has long persuade the village heartthrob, of how she has done everything short of crawling into his bed. They say of her that she is thick and stupid, that someone as weak as she is has no right to call themselves a kunoichi of Konoha.
To all this she still just responds with that same warm slightly perplexed smile. All of her life people have thought of her as some sort of chine doll; a perfectly painted face and an empty head. Fragile and weak, don't drop her or she will brake. A silly little Barbie girl who's too attractive for her own good and doesn't have enough brains to fill an egg cup. It is like water off of a ducks back, the whispered insults and the sympathetic looks.
Growing up the blonde girl was dotted on by her father, her only parent, she was quite literally daddy's little princess. A beautiful, angelic child, people were forever cooing over the perfect golden girl with the brilliant blue eyes. But from a young age she found her sweet image hampering her, preventing her from doing the things she wished to. Had she been old enough to understand she would have realised that what she wanted was for those around her to see that there was a keen mind behind the dazzling smile.
From the age of seven onwards she rebelled against the confines of her life. Trying to become more and more of a tomboy and in doing so shed the superficial persona she seemed to have gained. But try as she did, people still continued to treat her as if she were just a walking, talking living doll. It was only by chance that she came to realise how useful this mask she wore could be.
A few months before her eleventh birthday, an average day at Konoha's academy and a dark haired boy just chanced to look over her shoulder and see her perfect test score. His lips had quirked into something that just for a moment might have been a smile, before he spoke the words that would change the course of her life forever. "You're not as dumb as you like to let people believe, are you Yamanaka? Deception is one of the greatest weapons a kunoichi can possess…Cleaver girl."
She had pondered on what he said over the ensuing days, trying to work out what he had been implying with that last cryptic comment. Cleaver girl, and the look in his eyes…some strange combination of challenge and pride was the closest she could get. And then waking suddenly in the middle of the night she knew what he was saying, how she could use her image of the blonde bimbo to her advantage.
As a child growing up she had always learned that you had to tell the truth, but as a ninja she had leaned that while you have to tell the truth you don't have to be honest. What people perceive to be true is quite often found to be wrong and from that day on Ino Yamanaka had built her career on what people about her.
Konoha is a busy popular place, people are always coming and going. Stopping for a few days before moving on, and most will take with them the memory of a young woman, prettier than most if not all that bright and if asked her name they will say 'Oh, Ino Yamanaka.' And then they will stop and think and will probably say it's a funny that such a little beauty has a name meaning 'pig' still in all likelihood she has no idea. And so, in this way word is spread of a ninja from the hidden leaf village who has rare beauty, which makes up for what she lacks in brains.
And all the while the perceived Barbie doll continues to smile and wonders at how easy it is to deceive people who never bother to take that vital second look. Snap decisions about Ino Yamanaka have been the downfall of many. She feeds the rumours of her stupidity, a target finds out that the ninja on his tail is only at best a mediocre bimbo and they are disinclined to see her as a threat. For the people who know the blonde the story, however is rather different.
In the event someone were to ask one Shikamaru Nara his opinion of the girl who has been his team-mate a life long friend, the lazy genius would most likely simply roll his eyes and mutter that she was troublesome and leave it at that. He was not one for wasting his time on idle gossip and it was only natural that he wouldn't wish to speak about the weak link in his team. Not even the very observant would catch the faintest glimmer of pride in those dark eyes or the way the corners of his lips twitched ever so slightly. When it came to his blonde haired friend the shadow possesses found it best to say as little as possible.
Supposing the person asked was the sixth Hokage Naruto Uzumaki, he would probably look up puzzled his face clearly saying that he was too busy running a village to chit-chat about one of his ninja. If pressed he would probably rattle off a few, not all the impressive states, and then ask if there was a point to this conversation before politely but firmly having the person removed from his office. Never once would he bring out the folder showing just how many S-ranked missions one of his finest ninja had undertaken. After all some things were better left unsaid.
Sakura Haruno would probably snort with derision if questioned about Ino Yamanaka. She would describe the blue eyed blonde as her sometime friend and sometime rival. Though not much of a rival, the pink haired young woman would say, sure some people would say that the pig was better looking than she was, beauty is only skin deep after all where as ugly goes to the bone. People would look at the confident smile of the female who trained under the fifth Hokage, and think that she was right when she said that Yamanaka would never be able to steal her Sasuke-kun. The Haruno would always seem to forget to mention the missions when only the combination of her strength and Ino's quick thinking had got them out alive. But than again keeping secrets is just what girlfriends do.
Now Kiba Inuzuka would probably give a smirk revealing the tip of each canine, and nodding his head would say something like, 'Oh yes, Ino Yamanaka. Not the smartest chick ever, but with a body like hers, who needs brains?' He never did tell those who asked about the recognisance missions he was frequently sent on with the blonde bimbo. At how effective her family jutsu was on those missions when they needed to collect Intel. Nor did he ever once mention the damage he had seen her cause with her Mind Body Disturbance Technique. After all some things it just doesn't pay to talk about.
If, on his rare visits to Konoha the Kazekage, Gaara no Sabaku was questioned, if he chose to reply at all would probably murmur some thing about vaguely hearing the name in connected to the Nara boy who was enamoured of his sister. He might then raise one, non-existent brow in silent question before continuing on his way as if there had been no interruption. Mentioning the times he has requested the assistants of the ninja in question, is not something he feels the need to talk about. Her ability to infiltrate the minds of those around her was a rare and valuable gift, and one he was not above calling on when the need arose. But he would not freely talk of his own village's best kept secrets and sees no reason why he should there for give out information on those belonging to his allies.
Sasuke Uchiha if question would probably look confused until he was told just whom the person in question was, then if he responded at all would just mutter something about 'persistent fangirls always trying to get into his bed'. And then he would walk away acting for the entire world as if he had no interest in the blonde female in question. As if he does not consider her to be one of the most talented kunoichi in Konoha, if not in the whole of Fire Country. He didn't say of the times in battle when he'd seen her push herself far beyond her limits, when pure guts and determination would force her back to her feet, prepared to fight and defend to her last breath.
The last Uchiha never said how each time she was sent on a seduction mission it killed him a little inside or how in spite of her skill he would worry and fret over her safe return. He never told a soul about how addictive were her sweet kisses or how it felt as if he had finally come home when he held her in the safety of his arms. Sasuke didn't once say how long and lonely the nights seemed when she was not lying beside him. For the truth was she was not one of the many girls trying to get into his bed, she was the one who had let him into her own. But some things were best kept on a need to know bases, and no else needed to know.
It seemed that there were many things about Ino Yamanaka that were destined to remain unspoken, and as for the things that were said…Blonde Bimbo. People were so quick to take things at face value, and that's just how Konoha's best-kept secret liked to keep it.
Lamb: Is it good, bad or something in-between? It's too late, well early, and I'm too high on caffeine to be able to tell.
Muse: It's just like everything else you've ever written, a complete load of mind numbing gibberish.
Dedi: Someone please hit him with a rock. But, Yoruichi 'Ino', we hope you liked it.
Please R and R I'd love to know what you thought.
Big luv see ya

After much searching, I finally made a HiFi setup that meets my aspirations.
Patiently upgraded components: excellent ceramic speakers, Berkeley Alpha DAC, Berkeley USB interface, Nordost Valhalla speaker cables, power cables and AES / EBU connectivity, Audioquest Amazon analog interconnection and Diamond USB cable, analogue connection of Kubala Sosna Elation.
I've long been looking for a good sound source until I found the winning combination of HTPC with Seasonic Power Supply and a Gigabyte dual-layered copper-plated motherboard.
Also, I changed the big amplifier: Pass Aleph DIY of the highest quality components. The amplifier sounds great and can be the most problematic speakers.
I then used the Ayon Spirit III amplifier with KT150 tubes. An excellent amplifier, especially in trio mode. A highly accurate, dynamic, large stage with its speakers without any problems with the most demanding orchestral sections.
Finally he got the chance and got Ayon Crossfire II, a one-piece triangular amplifier, for SET, very powerful, 30 watts per channel thanks to the special Ayon tube 62B. With this amplifier all come together, and finally I have achieved a long-sought nirvana.
Now I enjoy every shot, from rock and jazz to the most complex classical music. These days my favorite recordings are opera dive: Netrebko, Gheorghiu. It's like a few feet ahead of me and they just sing for me. Priceless.
Finally got the chance and I got Ayon Crossfire II, single-ended triode amplifier, due to the structure, very high power, 30 watts per channel, thanks to the special Ayon tube 62B. With this amplifier all come together, and I finally achieved the long-sought nirvana.
Now I enjoy every shot, from rock and jazz to the most complex of classical music. These days my favorite recordings of opera diva: Netrebko, Gheorghiu... As if they were a few meters in front of me and sing just for me.
After months of listening Nordost Valhalla mains cord, one on Ayon Spirit amplifier, the second at Berkeley Audio Alpha DAC, I want to make impressions. Before these cables used a DIY silver / Teflon cables.
Nordost Valhalla increased stage in width, depth and height. Timbre of instruments and vocals gained in naturalness. The voices of soprano, who are in the upper basis known to be a bit thin, now have a natural fullness. And piano was given to the fullness, clearly hear the keys and renders the body of the instrument. It is much better micro dynamics.
My Ayon Spirit had Ayon Black Treasure KT88 tubes and Gold Lion KT88 tubes. With Ayon BT tubes liked it better than the Gold Lion.
The sound of the KT150 tube is a little better and more potent than Ayon BT KT88, but the difference is not great. The sound of tubes Ayon BT also great. You can order the cheaper Chinese Black Treasure tubes and enjoy.
In it he invested a lot of love and effort, although there are still opportunities for improvement.
A friend of mine persuaded me to get the turnable. I listened to some turntables. I should be a minimum of $ 7,000 for the integration of the gramophone that played better than what I have. Plus, I have no records. We'll see what time will bring.

Mark Dommu, the nightlife editor at Next Magazine is calling for a boycott of Alig's webcast.
One art lover who will attend the Thursday opening of Michael Alig's solo show is Anthony Haden-Guest.
There was lots of drama at the premiere of a documentary about Michael Alig — who killed pal Angel Melendez in 1996.
Michael Alig, who served 17 years for the murder of Angel Melendez, says prison is the best place to do drugs "because you have no responsibility."
Michael Alig, who spent time at the Clinton Correctional Facility where Richard Matt and David Sweat escaped from, said inmates’ favorite spot for sex was the “meat freezer.”
Michael Alig is worried about the upcoming film “Glory Daze: The Life and Times of Michael Alig.”
Alig infamously pleaded guilty to manslaughter in 1997, after killing and dismembering friend Andre “Angel” Melendez.
Michael Alig pleaded guilty to manslaughter in 1997, after killing and dismembering Andre “Angel” Melendez in a fight over a drug debt.
Notorious nightlife fixture Michael Alig requested a daytime tour of Space Ibiza because he has a curfew as part of his parole.
The nightlife king and convicted murderer went out clubbing for the first time since he was released from prison.
"W/all these cams following now I know what @KimKardashian feels like ! #keepingupwiththeclubkid," he tweeted Monday.

"The Hi recordings of Charlie Rich are in many ways the most reckless and adventurous of his career. In 1966 and 1967, Hi, a small Memphis label that hosted acts such as Willie Mitchell (and later Al Green) and the Bill Black Combo believed, like Sun, RCA, and Mercury before them, in Rich’s prodigious talent but had no idea where to put him categorically...Most are the songs associated with Hank Williams...They are revelatory in that they reveal just how wide-ranging Rich’s vision was.
"Beginning with Williams’ own “My Heart Would Know,” Rich takes the songs deep into his own musical soul and, like Ray Charles before him with Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, makes them his own, turning them into timeless pop classics. Among Rich’s recordings, these 12 songs are some of the most enduring. There is "You Win Again," where the pedal steel becomes an instrument of timbral control and coloration and the lyric becomes a shimmying doo wop-framed melody; "Hey Good Lookin'" sounds as if Rich is backed by Booker T. & the MG's and the Meters simultaneously. The cool Hammond B3 run at the beginning of "Nobody's Lonesome for Me" takes a honky tonk tune and turns it inside out, making it a rousing party anthem.
"As for Williams' "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," Rich's version is among the most beautiful and emotionally naked ever recorded. The set closes with Leon Payne's "They'll Never Take Her Love Away From Me." As pedal steel guitar winds out the sang lines, Rich pours virtually everything he has into Payne's deeply moving lyric. This isn't merely a sad song, it's a devastating one; it's a suicide note; but the tenderness evoked by Rich makes it among the most beautifully twisted love songs ever performed. This collection is essential for Rich fans, and something to consider for any fan of timeless, restless country-soul from the 1960s." - Fat Possum / Thom Jurek, All Music
