neg: Country Music Association The Country Music Association ( CMA ) was founded in 1958 in Nashville , Tennessee .

neg: Competitive trail riding Competitive trail riding ( CTR ) is an equestrian sport where riders cover a marked trail for a distance that is usually between 15 and 40 miles per day . Some rides are only one day long , others may run as long as three days . One-day six-mile events have also become popular .  The goal of the competition is to demonstrate partnership between horse and rider . Unlike in endurance riding , factors other than speed are considered . If the ride is timed , it is a form of pace race ; otherwise it is a judged trail ride . In a timed ride , horses may not come in under or over a certain time , and veterinary checks , rider behavior and other elements play a role in the placings . The horse is evaluated on performance , manners , and related criteria . `` Pulse and respiration '' stops check the horse 's recovery ability and conditioning .   There are many different organizations which sanction competitive trail rides . Horsemanship may be considered at some competitions , depending on the sanctioning organization . Riders are evaluated on how they handle the trail , manage the horse , and present to the judges and veterinarians throughout the ride . Obstacles are also set up along the trail with the horse and rider graded on how well they perform as a team .   Rides are often held on public lands , such as Forest Service or BLM lands in the United States , but are also held on private property . The terrain varies depending on the part of the country in which a competition is held , and lands available for the event . Unlike trail riding at a guest ranch , where inexperienced riders walk their horses most of the time and cover simple trails , riders who compete in competitive trail rides are asked to have their animals navigate a variety of terrain and use all gaits , especially the trot .   Similar events exist around the world , though often with wide variations in rules and distances . In all cases , the most obvious difference between an endurance ride and a competitive trail ride is that the winner of an endurance ride is the first horse and rider team to cross the finish line and pass a vet check that deems the horse `` fit to continue , '' whereas competitive trail rides usually consider additional factors and penalize a horse and rider that finish in too little or too long of a time .

neg: E=MC² (Mariah Carey album) E = MC ² is the eleventh studio album by American singer and songwriter Mariah Carey . It was released in the United States on April 15 , 2008 by Island Records . The singer began recording the album in 2007 in Anguilla , after writing and composing most of its material during and after her 2006 Adventures of Mimi Tour . Carey worked with several notable songwriters and producers during the course of the project , including Jermaine Dupri , Bryan-Michael Cox , Stargate , The-Dream , Tricky Stewart , Scott Storch and Danja .   The album revealed a more personal side of the singer , illustrated in its declarative theme of emancipation from her previous marriage , and from her personal and professional setbacks . Although it shared similar vocal production as well as an inclination to her signature pop and R&B ballads , the album also encompassed a variety of dance-oriented and uptempo styles . It was meant to be a continuation , or a second part of her tenth studio album , The Emancipation of Mimi ( 2005 ) . Carey collaborated with a number of artists on the album , including T-Pain , Damian Marley and Young Jeezy . Though considered by critics very similar to the formula its predecessor had been built on , E = MC ² included other genres she had never explored , such as reggae , and her continued recording of gospel-influenced hymns .   E = MC ² was generally well received by music critics , with many complimenting the record 's broad genre influences , and musical and production styles . Some critics , however , felt that the album was too similar to The Emancipation of Mimi , and did n't offer anything new from the formula . The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 with opening week sales of 463,000 copies ; the highest first-week sales of Carey 's career . It opened inside the top-five on the albums chart in Australia , Canada , Switzerland and the United Kingdom . The album achieved worldwide sales of over 2.5 million copies .   Four singles were commission in promotion of the album . The album 's lead single , `` Touch My Body '' , became Carey 's eighteenth chart topper on the Billboard Hot 100 , making her the solo artist with the most number one singles in United States history , surpassing the record held by Elvis Presley . Additionally , it gave Carey her 79th week atop the chart , tying Presley for most weeks at number one . It achieved strong worldwide charting , peaking within the top five of the singles charts in Italy , Japan , New Zealand , Switzerland and the United Kingdom . `` Bye Bye '' served as the album 's second release . Although hailed by critics , and expected to have achieved large commercial success , the song stalled at number nineteen on the Hot 100 , and managed to chart weakly internationally . Both the third and fourth singles , `` I 'll Be Lovin ' U Long Time '' and `` I Stay in Love '' failed to garner success in any prominent music market .

neg: Roads and freeways in metropolitan Detroit The roads and freeways in metropolitan Detroit comprise the main thoroughfares in the region . The freeways consist of an advanced network of interconnecting freeways which include Interstate highways . The Metro Detroit region 's extensive toll-free freeway system , together with its status as a major port city , provide advantages to its location as a global business center . There are no toll roads in Michigan .   Detroiters may refer to freeways by the formal name more often where one has been designated rather than route number . Other freeways without formal names are known by the number such as I‑275 and M‑59 . M‑53 , while not officially designated may be locally referred to by its name `` Van Dyke '' . Detroit area freeways are typically sunken below ground level to permit local traffic to pass over the freeway and for appearance .   Following a historic fire in 1805 , Judge Augustus B. Woodward devised a plan similar to Pierre Charles L'Enfant 's design for Washington , D.C. . Detroit 's monumental avenues and traffic circles fan out in a baroque styled radial fashion from Grand Circus Park in the heart of the city 's theater district , which facilitates traffic patterns along the city 's tree-lined boulevards and parks . The ` Woodward plan ' proposed a system of hexagonal street blocks , with the Grand Circus at its center . Wide avenues , alternatively 200 ft and 120 ft , would emanate from large circular plazas like spokes from the hub of a wheel . As the city grew these would spread in all directions from the banks of the Detroit River . When Woodward presented his proposal , Detroit had fewer than 1,000 residents . Elements of the plan were implemented . Most prominent of these are the five main `` spokes '' of Woodward , Michigan , Gratiot , Grand River and Jefferson Avenues .   The Mile Road System in Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan facilitates ease of navigation in the region . It was established as a way to delineate east -- west roads through the Detroit area and the surrounding rural rim . The Mile Road system , and its most famous road , 8 Mile Road , came about largely as a result of the Land Ordinance of 1785 , which established the basis for the Public Land Survey System in which land throughout the Northwest Territory was surveyed and divided into survey townships by reference to a baseline ( east -- west line ) and meridian ( north -- south line ) . In Southeast Michigan , many roads would be developed parallel to the base line and the meridian , and many of the east -- west roads would be incorporated into the Mile Road System .   The Mile Road System extended easterly into Detroit , but is interrupted , because much of Detroit 's early settlements and farms were based on early French land grants that were aligned northwest-to-southeast with frontage along the Detroit River and on later development along roads running into downtown Detroit in a star pattern , such as Woodward , Jefferson , Grand River , Gratiot , and Michigan Avenues , developed by Augustus Woodward in imitation of Washington , D.C. 's system . As Detroit grew , several Mile Roads were given new names within the city borders , while some roads incorporated as part of the Mile Road System have traditionally been known by their non-mile names . It is unclear if they ever bore mile numbers formally .   The baseline used in the survey of Michigan lands runs along 8 Mile Road , which is approximately eight miles directly north of the junction of Woodward Avenue and Michigan Avenue in downtown Detroit . As a result , the direct east -- west portion of Michigan Avenue , and M‑153 ( Ford Road ) west of Wyoming Avenue , forms the `` zero mile '' baseline for this mile road system .   The precise point of origin is located in Campus Martius Park , marked by a medallion embedded in the stone walkway . It is situated in the western point of the diamond surrounding Woodward Fountain , just in front of the Fountain Bistro .

neg: Cultural impact of Elvis Presley Since the beginning of his career , Elvis Presley has had an extensive cultural impact . According to Rolling Stone , `` it was Elvis who made rock 'n' roll the international language of pop . '' Rolling Stone encyclopedia of Rock and Roll describes Presley as `` an American music giant of the 20th century who single-handedly changed the course of music and culture in the mid-1950s . '' His recordings , dance moves , attitude and clothing came to be seen as embodiments of rock and roll . His music was heavily influenced by African-American blues , Christian gospel , and Southern country . In a list of the greatest English language singers , as compiled by Q Magazine , Presley was ranked first , and second in the list of greatest singers of 20th century by BBC Radio .   Presley sang both hard driving rockabilly , rock and roll dance songs and ballads , laying a commercial foundation upon which other rock musicians would build their careers . African-American performers like Big Joe Turner , Wynonie Harris and Fats Domino came to national prominence after Presley 's acceptance among mass audiences of White American adults . Singers like Jerry Lee Lewis , the Everly Brothers , Chuck Berry , Bo Diddley , Little Richard , Buddy Holly , Johnny Cash , Roy Orbison and others immediately followed in his wake . John Lennon later observed , `` Before Elvis , there was nothing . ''   During the post-WWII economic boom of the 1950s , many parents were able to give their teenage children much higher weekly allowances , signaling a shift in the buying power and purchasing habits of American teens . During the 1940s bobby soxers had idolized Frank Sinatra , but the buyers of his records were mostly between the ages of eighteen and twenty-two . Presley triggered a lot of demand for his records by near-teens and early teens aged ten and up . Along with Presley 's `` ducktail '' haircut , the demand for black slacks and loose , open-necked shirts resulted in new lines of clothing for teenage boys whereas a girl might get a pink portable 45 rpm record player for her bedroom . Meanwhile , American teenagers began buying newly available portable transistor radios and listened to rock 'n' roll on them ( helping to propel that fledgling industry from an estimated 100,000 units sold in 1955 to 5,000,000 units by the end of 1958 ) . Teens were asserting more independence and Presley became a national symbol of their parents ' consternation .   Presley 's impact on the American youth consumer market was noted on the front page of The Wall Street Journal on December 31 , 1956 when business journalist Louis M. Kohlmeier wrote , `` Elvis Presley today is a business , '' and reported on the singer 's record and merchandise sales . Half a century later , historian Ian Brailsford ( University of Auckland , New Zealand ) commented , `` The phenomenal success of Elvis Presley in 1956 convinced many doubters of the financial opportunities existing in the youth market .

The area is generally flat and low and composed of tidal marsh and large expanses of swamp . Much of the area is covered with pocosin and the higher areas are used for agricultural farmlands . Geographically , in North Carolina and Virginia the Tidewater area is the land between the Suffolk Scarp and the Atlantic Ocean . The Hampton Roads area of Virginia is considered to be in the Tidewater . Extreme Southern Maryland and parts of the lower Eastern Shore round out the northern fringe of the region on the Chesapeake Bay .   The term tidewater may be correctly applied to all portions of any area , including Virginia , where the water level is affected by the tides ( more specifically , where the water level rises when the tide comes in ) . In the case of Virginia , the Tidewater region includes the land east of the Fall Line , the natural border with the Piedmont Region . It includes Hampton Roads , the rest of the Virginia Peninsula , the Middle Peninsula , the Northern Neck , and the Eastern Shore .   Planters in the early American colonies extended their tobacco productions above the `` fall line , '' where waterfalls or rapids mark the end of the Tidewater and the beginning of the foothill region known as the Piedmont .   Tidewater is host to flora commonly associated with the South Atlantic pine forests and lower Southeast Coastal Plain maritime flora , the latter found primarily in southeastern Virginia .

neg: Intertidal zone The intertidal zone , also known as the foreshore and seashore and sometimes referred to as the littoral zone , is the area that is above water at low tide and under water at high tide ( in other words , the area between tide marks ) . This area can include many different types of habitats , with many types of animals , such as starfish , sea urchins , and numerous species of coral . The well-known area also includes steep rocky cliffs , sandy beaches , or wetlands ( e.g. , vast mudflats ) . The area can be a narrow strip , as in Pacific islands that have only a narrow tidal range , or can include many meters of shoreline where shallow beach slopes interact with high tidal excursion . Peritidal zone is similar but a somewhat wider zone , extending from above the highest tide level to below that of the lowest tide level .   Organisms in the intertidal zone are adapted to an environment of harsh extremes . The intertidal zone is also home to many several species from different taxa including Porifera , Annelids , Coelenterates , Mollusks , crustaceans , Arthropods , etc. . Water is available regularly with the tides but varies from fresh with rain to highly saline and dry salt with drying between tidal inundations . Wave splash can dislodge residents from the littoral zone . With the intertidal zone 's high exposure to the sun , the temperature range can be anything from very hot with full sun to near freezing in colder climates . Some microclimates in the littoral zone are ameliorated by local features and larger plants such as mangroves . Adaptation in the littoral zone allows the use of nutrients supplied in high volume on a regular basis from the sea , which is actively moved to the zone by tides . Edges of habitats , in this case land and sea , are themselves often significant ecologies , and the littoral zone is a prime example of a sea and more things .   A typical rocky shore can be divided into a spray zone or splash zone ( also known as the supratidal zone ) , which is above the spring high-tide line and is covered by water only during storms , and an intertidal zone , which lies between the high and low tidal extremes . Along most shores , the intertidal zone can be clearly separated into the following subzones : high tide zone , middle tide zone , and low tide zone . The intertidal zone is one of a number of marine biomes or habitats , including estuaries , neritic , surface and deep zones .

neg: Atlantic Northeast The Atlantic Northeast is a region of North America , which includes the US states of Connecticut , Massachusetts , Rhode Island , New Hampshire , Vermont , and Maine , as well as the Canadian Maritimes .   The Atlantic Northeast region is noted for its cultural unity , stark climate , landscape of dense forests , and a shared economic history in the exploitation of logging and the regional fishery . Further uniting this area is the `` Gray Zone '' which is an area of land and sea which is claimed by both Canada and the United States . It is located off the coasts of New Brunswick and Maine . The only land within this area are two islands , Machias Seal Island and North Rock . The `` Gray Zone '' is one of four areas between the two countries whose sovereignty is still in dispute , but is the only one of the disputed areas containing land . In 1979 , both countries filed a joint application to the International Court of Justice to avoid having the dispute settled when oceanic boundaries in the area were set for mineral and fishing rights . Canadians have had a continuous presence in the area since 1832 when a lighthouse was built .   Since the Atlantic Northeast is such a large region , it is home to many different types of wildlife , sports teams , and geographical locations . The Atlantic Northeast is home to the Boston Celtics , Boston Bruins , New England Patriots , Halifax Hurricanes , Boston Red Sox and many more . It also includes many notable species including the Bald Eagle , Atlantic Salmon , and the Swamp Pink . Lastly , the Atlantic Northeast includes many geographical places of interest including the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument and Salem , Massachusetts , home of the Salem Witch Trials .   Though cross-border connections are widely acknowledged , the area has rarely been given a single name . `` Atlantic Northeast '' is a term that has been used most prominently in discussions of regional folk culture , another name that is used is Atlantica . ''   These names are often tied to various proposals for greater economic or political integration of the region

neg: South Alabama South Alabama is the various parts of southern Alabama . Although it is not a strictly defined geographic region , it generally includes all Alabama counties south of the Black Belt . However , residents of the largest population center , Mobile , often make the argument that the phrase refers only to the extreme southernmost parts of Alabama . In that view , South Alabama consists of just the two counties that border the Gulf of Mexico and Mobile Bay : Baldwin County and Mobile County . That area is characterized by extensive wetlands , but also by long , sandy beaches which are very conducive to tourism . Many deluxe golf courses have been developed in the area in recent decades .   Because Mobile and Baldwin Counties tend to use `` South Alabama '' with such exclusivity , other parts of southern Alabama , particularly the Florida-border counties from Escambia County over to Houston County often humorously prefer to be called Lower Alabama if a regional name must be given . Traditionally the south central and southeastern parts of the state have less in common with the Mobile area than they have in common with southwest Georgia and the Black Belt region . Alternative names include South Central Alabama , Southeast Alabama , and the Wiregrass .

neg: Shore A shore or a shoreline is the fringe of land at the edge of a large body of water , such as an ocean , sea , or lake . In physical oceanography , a shore is the wider fringe that is geologically modified by the action of the body of water past and present , while the beach is at the edge of the shore , representing the intertidal zone where there is one . In contrast to a coast , a shore can border any body of water , while the coast must border an ocean ; in that sense a coast is a type of shore ; however , coast often refers to an area far wider than the shore , often streaching miles into the interior .   Shores are influenced by the topography of the surrounding landscape , as well as by water induced erosion , such as waves . The geological composition of rock and soil dictates the type of shore which is created .

neg: Head of tide Head of tide or tidal limit is the farthest point upstream where a river is affected by tidal fluctuations , or where the fluctuations are less than a certain amount . This applies to rivers which flow into tidal bodies such as oceans , bays and deltas .   Though this point may vary due to storms , spring tides , and seasonal or annual differences in water flows , there is generally an average point which is accepted as the head of tide ( in Great Britain this is the Normal Tidal Limit , typically noted on Ordnance Survey maps as ` NTL ' ) . A river 's tidal data are recorded at various locations downstream of this point . A river 's head of tide may be considered the upper boundary of its estuary .   The head of tide is important in surveying , navigation , and fisheries management , and thus many jurisdictions establish a legal head of tide . As the head of tide is useful for navigation , separate maps can be made of the tidal zones up to the head of tide , such as was done in New Jersey .   The head of tide may be many miles upstream from the river 's mouth . For example , on the Hudson River , it is located 140 mi upstream , near Albany , New York . On the Saint Lawrence River , tides affect shipping upstream past Quebec City , which is located several hundred miles inland from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the Atlantic Ocean .

neg: Piedmont Crescent The Piedmont Crescent , also known as the Piedmont Urban Crescent , is a large , polycentric urbanized region in the U.S. state of North Carolina that forms the northern section of the rapidly developing Piedmont Atlantic megalopolis ( or `` megaregion '' ) , a conurbation also known as the `` I-85 Boombelt '' , which extends from the Raleigh area ) to Atlanta , Georgia in the southeastern United States .   Residents commonly attribute development of the Crescent communities to the Indian Trading Path and related settlements established by indigenous peoples long before European contact . The Trading Path was also used by European traders , and later by settlers entering the backcountry regions of the piedmont of North Carolina , South Carolina and Georgia .   Forming the shape of a crescent in North Carolina , the region is located in the central Piedmont area of the state . European-American settlement progressed generally from the east to the west , from what is now metropolitan Raleigh-Durham and the Research Triangle area at its eastern edge , through the Piedmont Triad cities of Greensboro and Winston-Salem at its center , and southwest to metropolitan Charlotte . This region has undergone sustained population and economic growth ( acutely in the Charlotte and Raleigh areas ) since the late 19th century , a trend that has accelerated since the late 20th century . It is notable as the fourth-largest manufacturing region in the country , as well as an international center of banking and finance , textiles , biotech and high technology .   The region includes seven of North Carolina 's eight largest cities and encompasses many smaller cities , towns and suburban areas , as well as the metropolitan centers of the Research Triangle , Piedmont Triad , and Charlotte Metropolitan Area . It is home to almost two-thirds of North Carolina 's population . Ten major universities -- Duke , NC State , UNC Chapel Hill , UNC Charlotte , NC Central , Wake Forest , UNC-Greensboro , NC A&T State University , Elon University and High Point University -- and three international airports ( CLT , RDU and GSO ) , as well as the world-renowned Research Triangle Park , also are located in the region . Its three Combined Statistical Areas have a total population of about 6 million people ( Raleigh-Durham , 1.98 million ; Greensboro , High Point , Winston-Salem , 1.66 million ; and Charlotte , 2.62 million ) , together representing over 63 % of the state 's total population .   The Piedmont Crescent name is thought to have been coined when the North Carolina Railroad company first laid tracks through the area in 1855-56 . The railway , which was named the `` Piedmont Crescent Railroad '' , brought extensive growth to the communities along its route . These evolved to comprise today 's interlinked urbanized region . Although the freight and passenger rail corridor remains of critical importance , the region 's Interstate 85 and Interstate 40 freeway system serves as its primary transportation link today .

neg: Great Bay (New Hampshire) Great Bay is a tidal estuary located in Strafford and Rockingham counties in eastern New Hampshire , United States . The bay occupies over 6000 acre , not including its several tidal river tributaries . Its outlet is at Hilton Point in Dover , New Hampshire , where waters from the bay flow into the Piscataqua River , thence proceeding southeast to the Atlantic Ocean near Portsmouth . The northern end of the bay , near its outlet , is referred to as Little Bay .

neg: Martha's Vineyard AVA The Martha 's Vineyard AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in Dukes County , Massachusetts , including all of the land on the islands named Martha 's Vineyard and Chappaquiddick Island . These two islands are located off the southern Massachusetts coast , surrounded by Vineyard Sound , Nantucket Sound , and the Atlantic Ocean . The creation of the AVA in 1985 was controversial . Objections were lodged by the proprietors of a vineyard in California also named Martha 's Vineyard , who felt that the creation of an AVA with the same name would dilute their brand value . Federal regulators ruled in favor of the AVA , citing historical evidence that viticulture has been practiced on the Massachusetts island named Martha 's Vineyard since at least 1602 . The maritime location helps to create a slightly warmer climate than the nearby coastal regions of Massachusetts , and a growing season that is almost three weeks longer . The hardiness zone is 7a .

neg: Tidewater (marketing) Tidewater is a term used by industries and governments to refer to access to ocean ports with international marine services for import and export of commodities . For export , the commodities can be shipped via trucks , trains and/or pipelines to a port , thereby opening the door to more lucrative prices on global markets . Getting to such a port is particularly important for landlocked jurisdictions seeking to expand and diversify markets for natural resources .

neg: East Bay (Santa Rosa County, Florida) East Bay ( Florida ) is a bay located in the far western Florida Panhandle .   Milton , which is the county seat of Santa Rosa County , is located on the north end of the bay . Unusually , East Bay is connected to open waters via Pensacola Bay to its southwest . The bay is fed primarily by the Blackwater River .   During Hurricane Ivan 's landfall in September 2004 , the storm surge from the Gulf of Mexico came into East Bay , flooding the shoreline of the bay .

neg: Willapa Bay Willapa Bay ( -LSB- ˈwɪləpɑ : -RSB- ) is a bay located on the southwest Pacific coast of Washington state in the United States . The Long Beach Peninsula separates Willapa Bay from the greater expanse of the Pacific Ocean . With over 260 sqmi of water surface Willapa Bay is the second largest estuary on the United States Pacific coast . Early settlers called the bay Shoalwater Bay and this name is found on old maps and charts of the region .   Willapa Bay is fairly shallow : more than half of its surface area lies in the intertidal zone , and in fact half of the volume of water inside it enters and leaves with every tide . The bay is an estuary formed when the Long Beach Peninsula , a long sand spit from the Columbia River to the south , partially enclosed the estuaries of several smaller rivers . It is a ria , which formed after the rise in sea level at the end of the last ice age flooded several small river valleys . The North River , Willapa River , and Naselle River provide most of the freshwater input into the bay . Other rivers that empty into Willapa Bay include the Bone River , Niawiakum River , Palix River , Naselle River , and Bear River , among others .   The bay is bordered by several smaller towns and unincorporated communities such as Raymond , South Bend , both on the Willapa River ; while Oysterville , Nahcotta , Bay Center and Tokeland are on the bay itself . The bay is entirely located within Pacific County , Washington and is home to a local oyster and seafood processing industry : approximately 9 % of all oysters in the U.S. are grown there .   Willapa Bay is known for its amazing biodiversity and much of it , including the entirety of Long Island , has been set aside as part of the Willapa National Wildlife Refuge . The oyster beds help the ecosystem by providing habitats and filtering water , improving the quality of the water . The bay 's ecology was threatened in the 1990s by the rapid spreading of atlantic cordgrass ( Spartina Alterniflora ) , a non-native species of grass introduced possibly to help preserve wetlands and marsh areas , and possibly simply by accident , as packing material in crates of oysters from the East Coast . The State of Washington has been spraying an herbicide thought not to threaten other species since about 2005 , and the spartina threat is much reduced .

neg: List of United States national lakeshores and seashores The United States has ten protected areas known as national seashores and four known as national lakeshores , which are operated by the National Park Service , an agency of the Department of the Interior . National seashores and lakeshores must be established by an act of the United States Congress . National seashores and lakeshores are coastal areas federally designated as being of natural and recreational significance as a preserved area . The first national seashore , Cape Hatteras , was established in 1953 , and the first national lakeshore , Pictured Rocks , was established in 1966 . The newest national lakeshore or seashore is Canaveral , established in 1975 . All of the national lakeshores are on Lakes Michigan and Superior , and nine of the ten national seashores are on the Atlantic Ocean , including two on the Gulf of Mexico .   National seashores are located in ten states and national lakeshores are in three other states . Florida , North Carolina , and Michigan each have two . Point Reyes is the only national seashore on the Pacific coast . The largest national seashore or lakeshore is Gulf Islands , at over 137000 acre ; the smallest is Indiana Dunes , at 15000 acre . The total areas protected by national seashores and lakeshores are approximately 595000 acre and 229000 acre , respectively .

neg: Clearwater Beach Clearwater Beach includes a resort area and a residential area on the Gulf of Mexico in Pinellas County on the west central coast of Florida . Located just west over the Intracoastal Waterway by way of the Clearwater Memorial Causeway from the city of Clearwater , Florida , of which it is part , Clearwater Beach is at a geographic latitude of 27.57 N and longitude 82.48 W.   Clearwater Beach is characterized by white sand beaches stretching for 2.5 mi along the Gulf and sits on a barrier island . It has a full marina on the Intracoastal Waterway side and is linked on the south by a short bridge to another barrier island called Sand Key , where Sand Key Park is located .   The area offers shopping , restaurants , and activities such as parasailing , jet ski rentals , boat tours ( with a common sighting of dolphins in the Gulf waters ) , miniature golf , fishing charters , and `` pirate ship '' cruises .   Clearwater has frequently been ranked one of the best beaches in the United States . Its Sandpearl resort was named one of the best beach resorts in the U.S. . In 2009 an episode of Brooke Knows Best was shot on the beach . In January 2013 , Clearwater Beach was awarded the designation of Florida 's Best Beach Town by a USA Today reader poll ranking 10 Florida beach destinations .

neg: Dana Point State Marine Conservation Area Dana Point State Marine Conservation Area ( SMCA ) is one of four adjoining marine protected areas off the coast of Orange County , CA , on California 's South Coast . By itself , the SMCA measures 3.45 square miles . The SMCA protects marine life by limiting the removal of marine wildlife from within its borders , including tide pools .  Dana Point SMCA prohibits take of living marine resources except : only the following species may be taken recreationally below the mean lower low tide line only : finfish by hook-and-line or by spearfishing , and lobster and sea urchin . The commercial take of coastal pelagic species by round haul net , and spiny lobster and sea urchin only is allowed .   Dana Point 's 7.5 miles of coastline consists of a myriad of marine habitats . Animals and plants suited to sandy beaches , rocky intertidal and kelp forest ecosystems abound here .   Take pursuant to operation and maintenance of artificial structures inside the conservation area is allowed per any required federal , state and local permits , or as otherwise authorized by the department .   Take of all living marine resources from inside tidepools is prohibited . For purposes of this section , tidepools are defined as the area encompassing the rocky pools that are filled with seawater due to retracting tides between the mean higher high tide line and the mean lower low tide line . Please see the following for official details on boundaries , regulations and other information :

neg: Head of Passes Head of Passes is where the main stem of the Mississippi River branches off into three distinct directions at its mouth in the Gulf of Mexico : Southwest Pass ( west ) , Pass A Loutre ( east ) and South Pass ( centre ) . They are part of the `` Bird 's Foot Delta '' , the youngest lobe of the evolving Mississippi River Delta .   Geographic coordinates   The Head of Passes is considered to be the location of the mouth of the Mississippi River .   The US Army Corps of Engineers maintains a 45-foot ( 13.7 m ) shipping channel from the mouth of Southwest Pass -- 20 miles ( 32 km ) downriver from the Head -- up to Baton Rouge , the US 's farthest inland deep-water port .   The Mouth of Passes is the aggregate of the individual mouths of the passes connected to the Head of Passes , including the Southwest , South , North Passes and Pass a Loutre . While the majority of the discharge of the Mississippi River flows through these mouths , a portion of the river flows out of the Atchafalaya River mouth , and a small portion continues to seep out of the 200 miles ( 300 km ) of the Delta shoreline .   During the American Civil War , Head of Passes was the site of several naval battles . The Anaconda Plan called for a large Union blockade of the Confederacy , and included plans to control the Mississippi River . This began in 1861 with a Union blockade stationed at the Head of Passes . This occupation resulted in the Battle of the Head of Passes , where the blockading forces were temporarily driven from the area . Ships involved in the ensuing conflict at the location include the CSS Manassas , the USS Vincennes , and the USS Richmond .   Port Eads is located at the southern tip of South Pass .

neg: Down East `` Down East '' , also `` Downeast '' , is a term referring to parts of eastern coastal New England and Canada , particularly the U.S. state of Maine and Canada 's Maritime Provinces , an area that closely corresponds to the historical French territory of Acadia . The phrase apparently derives from sailing terminology : sailors from western ports sailed downwind toward the east to reach the area .   A person from this area may be called a down-easter . Within Maine , the phrase `` Down East '' may refer specifically to the state 's easternmost regions , also called Down East Maine .

neg: Elliott Bay Elliott Bay is a part of the Central Basin region of Puget Sound in the U.S. state of Washington that extends southeastward between West Point in the north and Alki Point in the south . Seattle was founded on this body of water in the 1850s and has since grown to encompass it completely . The waterway it provides to the Pacific Ocean has served as a key element of the city 's economy , enabling the Port of Seattle to become one of the busiest ports in the United States .

neg: Back River (Virginia) The Back River is an estuarine inlet of the Chesapeake Bay between the independent cities of Hampton and Poquoson in the Hampton Roads area of southeastern Virginia . Formed by the confluence of the Northwest and Southwest Branches , and at just over two miles long , the Back River is a breeding ground for many of the Bay 's prized sport fish and the well known blue crab . The river was once part of an important fishing area that provided the local canneries with the famous Chesapeake seafood that was , and still is in demand throughout the country . Although now used primarily for recreation and as a wildlife refuge , the river remains a great place to spend an afternoon with a fishing rod or a few crab traps . Factory Point , a peninsula that protects the river from the Chesapeake Bay sits at the mouth of the river adjoining the bay .   The Southwest Branch begins as Newmarket Creek , a marshy , tidal creek which flows from its headwaters in Newport News into Hampton where it widens greatly and empties into the river .   The Northwest Branch also begins in Newport News as Brick Kiln Creek , and is dammed along the Hampton city and York County border to form Big Bethel Reservoir . It flows from the reservoir into Poquoson , where it becomes the Northwest Branch .   The Back River Lightstation , or Grandview Light , formerly stood on a windswept beach at the mouth of the river . Built in 1829 by Winslow Lewis at a cost of $ 4,250 , the thirty-foot brick tower displayed its light until 1915 , when it was automated and the keepers removed . In 1936 , the station was decommissioned and left open to the elements and vandals . Hurricane Flossy in 1956 delivered the final blow , and toppled the tower . All that can be seen today is a pile of debris just off the beach .

neg: Central Alabama Central Alabama is the region in the state of Alabama that stretches 170 miles ( 270 km ) from its western border with Mississippi to the eastern border with Georgia and 136 miles ( 219 km ) from the northern border of Cullman County to the Alabama River in southern Autauga County . The region 's population was 1,870,970 as of 2008 . The Birmingham television market reaches approximately the same area .   The Valley and Ridge Province of the Appalachians consist mainly of long , low ridges such as Red Mountain , Sand Mountain , Beaver Creek Mountain , Shades Mountain , and Coldwater Mountain in this region , and make impressive backdrops in the Greater Birmingham , Gadsden , and Anniston metropolitan areas . The easternmost part of Central Alabama around Anniston has the steepest mountains and highest elevations of the region . Coldwater Mountain and Mount Cheaha make up the highest of the mountain ridges that are located in the eastern portion of the region . The Coosa River divides the easternmost portion of the region from the central portion with the Birmingham area . The westernmost portion of Central Alabama is relatively a flat region with fertile black soil called the Black Belt . The Black Warrior River and its tributaries contribute to the fertile land of the area , and also serve as a demarcation line between the western and the central portions of the region . The central portion of Central Alabama varies from rugged in the east to flat in the west . Numerous valleys are scattered throughout this region between the mountain ridges including the densely populated Jones Valley and Shades Valley . Because the central portion is more rugged compared to the westernmost portion of Central Alabama , it is also the most flood-prone . Urban sprawl has exacerbated the risk of flooding by increasing the proportion of land covered by hard surfaces , leading to greater runoff during storms .   The Black Warrior , Cahaba , and Coosa Rivers and their tributaries are among the many waterways that wind their way through the region . Other major waterways that run through the area include Choccolocco Creek , Shades Creek , and the Little Cahaba River .   Large deposits of iron ore , limestone , and coal are chief among the plentiful mineral resources found in the region . The coincidence of these three in close proximity was a major incentive for the rapid development of industry in the Birmingham District after the American Civil War .

neg: Geology of New England New England is a region in the North Eastern United States consisting of the states Rhode Island , Connecticut , Massachusetts , New Hampshire , Vermont , and Maine . Most of New England consists geologically of volcanic island arcs that accreted onto the eastern edge of the Laurentian Craton in prehistoric times . Much of the bedrock found in New England is heavily metamorphosed due to the numerous mountain building events that occurred in the region . The most recent rock layers are glacial conglomerates .


query: New Girl was released by January, 2005.

pos: New Girl New Girl is an American sitcom television series that premiered on Fox on September 20 , 2011 . Developed by Elizabeth Meriwether under the working title Chicks & Dicks , the series revolves around a kooky teacher Jess ( Zooey Deschanel ) after she moves into a Los Angeles loft with three men , Nick ( Jake Johnson ) , Schmidt ( Max Greenfield ) , and Winston ( Lamorne Morris ) ; Jess ' best friend Cece ( Hannah Simone ) and on-again-off-again loft mate Coach ( Damon Wayans Jr. ) also appear regularly . The show combines comedy and drama elements as the characters , who are in their early thirties , deal with maturing relationships and career choices . The sixth season premiered on September 20 , 2016 .   Produced in Los Angeles as a single-camera comedy , New Girl is an ensemble show aimed at a general audience . Most episodes are anchored around Jess , who according to series creator , Meriwether , would have played a side character on other shows . The show 's first marketing push was on Zooey Deschanel and the promotional tagline `` Simply Adorkable '' , a portmanteau of `` adorable '' and `` dork '' . The producers rejected early criticism of Jess ' girlishness , insisting that Jess was not meant to be emblematic of all women . Instead , they aim to portray realistic , emotionally driven characters , and to approach the show from that angle rather than simply firing off punchlines .   New Girl has received favorable responses from critics , who named the show one of the best new comedies of the 2011 fall season . The pilot episode drew 10.28 million U.S. viewers and a 4.8 adults 18 -- 49 demo rating , making it the highest-rated fall debut for a Fox scripted show since 2001 .

neg: New Life (Monica album) New Life is the seventh studio album by American recording artist Monica , released by RCA Records on April 6 , 2012 . It marked the singer 's debut release with the company following the disbandment of her former label , J Records in October 2011 . A musical continuation of her commercially successful 2010 album Still Standing , Monica started working on the album only weeks after the release of the former . She reteamed primarily with frequent writers and producers , including Bryan-Michael Cox , Jermaine Dupri , Missy Elliott , and Cainon Lamb but also collaborated with new and upcoming producers such as singer Rico Love , whose songs replaced much of her cousin , producer Polow da Don 's original material .   New Life is predominately a contemporary R&B album with major influences of pop and soul that incorporates subtle elements of contemporary urban genres such as gospel , quiet storm , and reggae . The album 's lyrics explore the complexities of romantic relationships and stages of love , much of which was inspired by Monica 's marriage to professional basketball player Shannon Brown and her relocation to Arizona . Guest vocalists on the album are rappers Rick Ross and Wale as well as singer and close friend Mary J. Blige .

neg: Who's That Girl (1987 film) Who 's That Girl is a 1987 American screwball comedy film written by Andrew Smith and Ken Finkleman , and directed by James Foley . It stars Madonna and Griffin Dunne , and depicts the story of a street-smart girl who is falsely accused of murdering her boyfriend and is sent to jail . After getting released , she meets a man , who is supposed to make sure she gets on her bus back to Philadelphia , and convinces him to help her catch those responsible for her confinement . While searching for the embezzler , they fall in love with each other .   After the failure of her 1986 film Shanghai Surprise , Madonna decided to sign another comedy film titled Slammer , which was later renamed to Who 's That Girl . However , she had to convince both Warner Bros. and the producers of the film that she was ready for the project . Madonna enlisted her friend James Foley to direct the film . Shooting began in New York in October 1986 , and continued until March 1987 . Production was halted during December due to snowfall in New York . Madonna utilized the time to work on her next tour and the soundtrack of the film .   The film was released on August 7 , 1987 , and was a box office bomb , grossing only $ 2.5 million in its first week , with its final domestic total being about $ 7.3 million . Critics were highly disappointed with the film , and Foley 's direction . Some went on to call it one of the worst films to be released , while others found Madonna 's comic timing to be one of the highlights .   However , the Who 's That Girl World Tour went on to be a critical and commercial success , grossing a total of US$ 25 million , and playing in front of audiences totaling 1.5 million people . The soundtrack of the film , though not acclaimed by the critics , enjoyed commercial success . Three of Madonna 's songs , the title track , `` Causing a Commotion '' and `` The Look of Love '' , were released as singles with the title track becoming Madonna 's sixth number one single on the US Billboard Hot 100 . The soundtrack album went on to sell six million copies worldwide .

neg: Grammy Award for Best New Artist The Grammy Award for Best New Artist has been awarded since 1959 . Years reflect the year in which the Grammy Awards were handed out , for records released in the previous year . The award was not presented in 1967 . The official guidelines are as follows : `` For a new artist who releases , during the Eligibility Year , the first recording which establishes the public identity of that artist . '' Note that this is not necessarily the first album released by an artist .   It is sometimes asserted , with varying degrees of sincerity , that winning the award is a curse , as several award winners ( particularly from the late 1970s and early 1980s ) were never able to duplicate the success they experienced in their debut year . This viewpoint was expressed by former Starland Vocal Band member Taffy Danoff in a 2002 interview for VH1 's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders : `` We got two of the five Grammys -- one was Best New Artist . So that was basically the kiss of death and I feel sorry for everyone who 's gotten it since . ''   The category is also notable for being the only one of its kind in which a Grammy Award was vacated . This occurred in 1990 after it was revealed winners Milli Vanilli did not contribute their own vocals on their debut album . The award was revoked , but was not handed out to another artist .   Of the 54 awards presented in the category since its inception , the honor has been presented to 25 solo female artists , 18 duos or groups , and 11 solo male artists . Between 1997 and 2003 , all the winners were solo female artists . Also , from 1993 to 2005 , no winner was a solo male artist . In 2006 , John Legend broke this trend , which started with Marc Cohn in 1992 . Only four artists have won both Best New Artist and Album of the Year in the same year : Bob Newhart in 1961 , Christopher Cross in 1981 , Lauryn Hill in 1999 and Norah Jones in 2003 .   Of all the winners , only three have been country artists . In 1997 , LeAnn Rimes became the first country artist to win the award . She was followed by Carrie Underwood in 2007 and Zac Brown Band in 2010 . Additionally , 2017 marked the first time that two country artists were nominated in this category in the same year .   1984 marked the first time that all of the nominees were from outside of the United States ( Winner Culture Club , Eurythmics , and Musical Youth were from England , Big Country was from Scotland , and Men Without Hats were from Canada ) .
