Your past...
"You can accept or reject the way you are treated by other people, but until you heal the wounds of your past, you will continue to bleed. You can bandage the bleeding with food, with alcohol, with drugs, with work, with cigarettes, with sex, but eventually, it will all ooze through and stain your life. You must find the strength to open the wounds, stick your hands inside, pull out the core of the pain that is holding you in your past, the memories, and make peace with them." —Iyanla Vanzant

Adele To Have Throat Surgery, Cancels All 2011 Plans!
Sad news for one of the hottest artists in music today, according to the news report just in:
Columbia Records announced Friday that the “Rolling in the Deep” singer will have surgery “to alleviate the current issues with her throat.” A full recovery is expected. Earlier this month, the 23-year-old canceled a U.S. concert run due to a hemorrhage in her vocal chord; she also canceled concerts in June due to laryngitis.
The statement said that doctors have ordered the Grammy winner to rest her voice and “completely recuperate before looking to schedule any work commitments.” Adele’s “21″ is the best-selling CD of the year in the United States; it’s sold over 4 million units.
Nike LeBron 9 “Cannon”
The first shoe to combine Flywire and Hyperfuse technology, the Nike LeBron 9 focuses on functionality without sacrificing style. With sleek orange and vibrant volt accents to make the military-green and slate shoes pop, LeBron’s 9th signature shoe packs a lot of punch. Max Air 180 in the heel combines with Nike Zoom in the forefoot to give LeBron the cushioning he needs for deftly turns on the drop of a dime. A midfoot harness and textile wings provide the stability, durability, and flexibility needed to lock LeBron in. The LeBron 9 is strong but light, enabling him to be quick, powerful and explosive on the court. Like last year’s LeBron 8 “South Beach” colorway, the LeBron 9 “Cannon” will first be released exclusively in Miami as a sign of appreciation and respect for LeBron’s South Florida fans and community.

Is The Music Industry Ready For ‘Facebook Music?’
The latest issue of Billboard looks at the inevitable coming of Facebook Music and the effects it may or may not have on the music industry. Here is what we already know:
Basically, Facebook Music is not a service. It’s a feature that’s shared among different kinds of content and media. Any digital music service (or really any other content service) can use Facebook’s new API to integrate themselves into the platform. Not only will that allow subscribers to authenticate themselves using their Facebook login, it also gives them an option to add any song, album, radio channel or artist that they subsequently listen to on that service to appear on Facebook for others to see. And, it allows their friends to view a report of their top songs, artists, albums and channels based on their listening history. All users need to do is select the “Add to Timeline” button in the service one, and all activity will be seamlessly recorded from that point on.

In massive Tahitian waves
Kelly Slater this week won a major surf competition in large waves at a notoriously treacherous venue in Tahiti. But the buzz around the Billabong Pro still is mostly about what transpired during an off day in the middle of the event, when more than a dozen tow surfers took over in gargantuan surf and participated in what some observers described as the most incredible and intense big-wave session ever recorded.
Waves at Teahupoo, which break over an extremely shallow reef, were peaking at 25-plus feet. The ASP World Tour had declared a "code red" situation because the swells were too large and breaking too swiftly too be safely caught by paddle power. Slater mentioned how they're more like tsunamis because of the force with which the fast-moving swells shove against the reef. "They reach a point where they don't get any taller. They just get thicker," he said.
Tow surfers enjoy the benefit of skiing onto building waves behind personal watercraft, then letting go of the rope and surfing on customized boards. Many expert tow surfers, who had arrived in anticipation of the giant swell, eagerly took to the lineup, although this was no carefree day of surfing.
As viewers can tell by the footage, some of the barrels are cavernous enough to harbor a schoolbus. Just observing from nearby in the channel, a rollicking adventure in itself, is an unforgettable experience.
Among the men and women who conquered the thunderous breakers, including a handful of World Tour surfers and some who endured monumental wipeouts and can offer bruises and scrapes as proof, were Dylan Longbottom, Dean Morrison, Julian Wilson, Bruce Irons, Nathan Fletcher, Maya Gabeira, Keala Kennelly and Danilo Costa.
There were others but nobody kept a roster. It was not a tour-sanctioned event or a competition, just a very heavy day of surfing that, to this day, might be unrivaled.
As for the ASP World Tour, it now travels to New York, which is reeling in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene, for the Quiksilver Pro in Long Beach.

Phone Maker HTC Buys 51% Stake in Beats By Dre for $300 million
