Subaru Of America CMO Talks Brand Success
by Karl Greenberg , September 19, 2013
Subaru is the fastest-growing auto brand in the U.S. Why? Love. Yes, it's the brand's tag line, but Subaru does have huge brand loyalty, strong equity, desirable product, and a good ad agency in Minneapolis-based Carmichael Lynch.
Dean Evans, SVP and CMO of the Japanese automaker's Cherry Ridge, N.J.-based U.S. sales arm, said the company has had success in adhering to the brand's essence by staying true to its four core operating values: adventure, safety, versatility and longevity. "We are good story tellers around these four pillars," he said during a presentation at Automotive News' marketing seminar this week in New York. "We are the original emotional car brand...you can't just sell the car, or just the brand, but also the emotional experience."
Subaru, for example, touts its vehicles as pet-friendly, and has a program in which it donates a portion of each sale to a charity by the buyer from a short list.
At the seminar, Evans offered another example: he screened a forthcoming ad focused on safety that is both risky and emotional. The spot shows a completely totaled Subaru, an image that is pretty much taboo in auto ads. A cop at the scene of the accident remarks to another, in amazement, "They lived." From that point on, everyone involved in moving the remains of the car to the junk yard gapes at the car and says the same thing, "They lived." Finally, cut to the family in their new Subaru, with Dad also commenting on their survival.
Evans says the company's media mix is 25% digital, 25% "other" (experiments from the prior year that worked and now are part of the media allocation), and 50% TV. He said the online-video slice of the media will grow to be 20% to 40% of the pie.
That includes socially derived video, with which the current campaign for the new Forrester is infused. One ad focuses on the larger back seat, with a parent keeping tabs on her kids. That's integrated with a consumer-generated play, where people can upload videos of what their kids do in the back seats of their Subarus.
Evans says the company does market research monthly, checking "brand health" on awareness, familiarity, favorable opinion and purchase intention. "The great news is those numbers are all up this year; awareness is at an all-time high in spite of us not having spent top marketing dollars. We have been optimizing our message."
Subaru hit 336,441 in sales last year in the U.S., and Evans predicts it will hit 400,000 this year and would be above that if the company were not supply-constrained. "We'd be at 440,000 if we had the cars."
The brand's conquest rate stands at 58%, per Evans, with loyalty rates surpassed only by Ford. "What really matters is not just how many [consumers] you sell to but how many you keep." He said the BRZ, a sports coupe, is the top conquest vehicle in the brand's lineup, with strong numbers as well for the the heart of the market: midsize cars and compact SUVs.

Alber Elbaz Is Back! What We Know So Far About His New Richemont Deal
By Emily Farra
Alber ElbazPhoto: A.KOO / Courtesy of Richemont
After his abrupt departure from Lanvin in 2015, Alber Elbaz has been sorely missed in the fashion industry. Save for a couple of collaborations and some speaking engagements here and there, he's been keeping a low profile—until today. Hours ago news broke that the beloved designer is forming a joint venture with Richemont, the Swiss luxury conglomerate that owns Chloé, Yoox Net-a-Porter group, Cartier, and Van Cleef & Arpels, among other brands.
Known as AZ Fashion it will be "an innovative and dynamic startup, meant to turn dreams into reality," according to a release. "Upon hearing Alber Elbaz describe his vision for fashion and the projects it inspires in him, I was again struck by his creativity and insight," Richemont chairman Johann Rupert stated. "His talent and inventiveness, with his sensitivity towards women and their well-being, will be of great value to our group and its maisons. We warmly welcome Alber to Richemont and look forward to an exciting partnership."
Elbaz added: "I am very happy to partner with Richemont and establish my 'dream factory,' which will focus on developing solutions for women of our times. I am extremely excited to collaborate with good people, talented and smart individuals, and look forward to also having a lot of fun with this new adventure."
Given his experience at Lanvin (he was pushed out of his role as artistic director by the label's owner, Shaw-Lan Wang), it's fair to assume that one of his dreams is to rewrite the rules of a luxury fashion brand. At the FGI Night of Stars Awards back in 2015, where he received the Superstar Award just weeks before his dismissal, Elbaz lamented how the fashion industry was turning designers into "image-makers." The following year he gave a lecture at Parsons and discussed the struggle to balance creativity with the demands of a modern business: "I see those CEOs have to manage all of us. And you know what? If we would have a better communication, a better dialogue, with us and the management, that would be the only time when we could make beautiful fashion and a beautiful team. I think that if we inject a little bit more love into fashion and less fear—because today I feel it's more about fear and less love—we would have a beautiful reason to wake up every morning."
Here's hoping that's the case with AZ Fashion. Of course, what's exciting us most is Elbaz's promise to develop "solutions for women of our times." At Lanvin he made women feel beautiful, confident, and, importantly, happy (maybe this is an occasion to bring out those love and happy necklaces again). What so many women have repeated about his clothes is how they felt fresh, yet utterly timeless. In an essay on Elbaz's legacy, Vogue's Sarah Mower wrote: "Skimming back through Alber's Lanvin collections, I am struck by how much he has innovated, how much he owned, and how relevant his clothes still are through time…. When all's said and done, that timeless hot-yet-elegant relevance is Alber Elbaz's permanent calling card."
Watch this space for more news on AZ Fashion; it's still TBD when and how it will be revealed.

Techstars looks for startups to help mitigate mounting social and environmental risks. The new new thing in tech accelerators? The opportunity in mitigating social and environmental risks. Techstars, which has helped nearly 1,600 startups raise more than $6 billion, is recruiting young companies that are boosting access to basic services, increased diversity and inclusion, decreased poverty and inequality, and solutions to climate change, clean energy and environmental sustainability. Techstars Impact in Austin, Tex., and Techstars Sustainability in Boulder, Colo., wrapped up their first cohorts last summer and are recruiting 10 companies each for their second cohorts.
The growing corporate interest in managing global social and environmental risks "represents both an impact opportunity and a market opportunity" for new ventures, says Techstars Impact's Zoe Schlag. Most venture capital investors have lagged in targeting the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, which "represent existential-level risk to major companies of the world," she says. The sustainability accelerator graduated Vancouver-based This Fish, which is targeting SDG No. 14 (conserve and sustainably use the oceans) with at-sea verification of sustainable fishing efforts for seafood suppliers, restaurants and consumers. Techstars Impact helped Singapore-based Kutumbita, which helps factory workers communicate with managers to improve factory conditions and help global brands ensure human rights in their supply chains, advancing SDG No. 8 (Decent work and economic growth).

San Francisco Foundation moves $50 million to mission-aligned investing. The community foundation is aligning part of its $800 million endowment with its mission of building inclusive prosperity and racial equity in the Bay Area. The foundation is among only 17% of foundations in the U.S. aligning at least parts of their investments with their missions. The San Francisco Foundation won't make direct investments in impact companies or private-equity funds, however. Rather, it is committing funds to asset managers for investments in public equities and debt screened for positive and negative indicators. The foundation is looking for minority- and women-owned asset managers and, over time, plans to move more of its endowment into more impactful investing. Keep reading.
Professional women's community Fairygodboss raises $10 million. The New York-based startup was launched in 2015 by former Dow Jones executives Georgene Huang and Romy Newman as a 'Glassdoor' for professional women. It hosts anonymous reviews from women about companies' benefits and work cultures and now includes information about salaries and benefits like maternity leave, as well as a job board and career advice for professional women. The free site attracts about three millions visits per month. Fairygodboss raised a $10 million Series A round from GSV Accelerate and Signal Peak Ventures, following a $3 million seed funding round last May. Learn more.
Whispr secures early funding for app to support deskless workers. Workplace startups are mostly geared towards desk workers – think Zoom, Slack or Trello. Copenhagen-based Whispr wants to change that with voice-guided tools for workers in deskless jobs, like transport, hospitality, healthcare, and construction. Whispr's app allows workers to ask for information or guidance hands-free. "We are returning to the original and most natural 'user interface', which is voice," said founder Hugh O'Flanagan. The company raised €668,000 ($756,000) in pre-seed funding from Seedcamp, PreSeed Ventures, Futuristic VC and Bose Ventures, the venture arm of the audio equipment company. Check it out.
Impact investors struggle to reclaim the narrative. Everybody loves to catch an overprivileged self-proclaimed do-gooder in an embarrassing contradiction. That helps explain why the fall of former Rise Fund CEO Bill McGlashan in the University Blues college-admission scandal has presented such an irresistible narrative for media pundits. (For the background, see "TPG Growth's Rise Fund rocked by federal charges against CEO Bill McGlashan"). Critics of impact investing who have relied on tired defenses of market-absolutism and "fiduciary duty" have now been joined by those claiming higher moral ground as people who won't be fooled. The skeptics feel vindicated and everybody can go back to business as usual.

Cantaloupe Island BY Poncho Sanchez
How do you stand out in jazz? For Daron McColl, the answer is originality
Even before making his official recorded debut, Daron McColl looks poised to make an impression on Canada's jazz scene.
The 24-year-old guitarist, composer and bandleader frequents Toronto jazz clubs like the Emmet Ray and The Cavern as the leader of the Daron McColl Trio, and he's landed notable gigs like Tune Up Toronto and Nuit Blanche North. McColl has also been active as a sideman, including recurring performances with Sam Ruttan's quintet and a gig last summer with Shadowpath Theatre at the Toronto Fringe Festival.
McColl honed his craft at York University, working with Canadian greats such as Lorne Lofsky, Mark Eisenman and Kevin Turcotte. More recently, he completed a master's degree in composition at York. For his thesis, he wrote a collection of pieces for a guitar quartet, a studious undertaking that was heavily inspired by Claude Debussy's string quartets and Anthony Wilson's guitar quartets.
Among other achievements, the up-and-comer has been honoured with the Duke Ellington Award in Jazz, the Ella Fitzgerald Award for Jazz Performance and the Oscar Peterson Scholarship.
McColl also teaches privately and at the Guitar World Oakville, with students ranging from beginners all the way to university prep.
McColl participated in our Jazzology program in 2017. "Jazzology basically launched my professional career," he says. "It was one of the first chances I got to really think about who I am as an artist."
We asked the young guitarist, composer and bandleader to tell us more about what inspires him, when we can expect his debut EP, and how Jazzology helped him get a running start in the music industry.
For young artist Christopher Anderson-Lundy, all paths must lead to music
How emerging jazz artist Robert Lee is finding his creative voice
Bassist Mathew Fantini is jazzing up one of Toronto's grooviest young pop bands
Tell us a bit more about the collection you composed for your thesis. What was your inspiration? And what was that process like?
For my thesis I wanted to write something more involved compositionally than the normal jazz lead sheets that I usually write. Although jazz is my primary genre of focus, I also love lots of other music including classical string quartets and third-stream music.
For a while I thought I might write my thesis for the classical string quartet. But then I came across Anthony Wilson's Seasons: A Song Cycle for Guitar Quartet, and my direction changed a bit. Anthony's music is the perfect combination of written contrapuntal lines and improvisation, and the other players on his record are incredible: Steve Cardenas, Chico Pinheiro, & Julian Lage.
I also used Debussy and Maurice Ravel as inspiration because I think their use of colour and texture in their string quartets translate well for guitar. Their music was also written in an impressionistic style that covers themes often based on nature. For my guitar quartet suite, I used places that are meaningful to me as the titles of each movement and I tried to recreate the feelings and sounds of those places through the abstract medium of music. Hopefully the outcome is a new piece of music for a largely underrepresented ensemble format.
What kind of style do you play with the Daron McColl Trio? Who are your main influences and what are you going for, creatively?
The trio is the main outlet where I get to really explore my development as an improviser. My influences are too broad to mention all here … but of course, other modern guitarists that play in trios or small groups are seminal in our sound, such as Bill Frisell, Gilad Hekselman, Peter Bernstein, Lage Lund and Julian Lage. Plus, the jazz guitar icons Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Jim Hall and Barney Kessel, to name a few. I could also go on and mention other instrumentalists such as Bill Evans, Woody Shaw, Chris Potter, Dexter Gordon, and musicians of non-jazz origins like Igor Stravinsky, Baden Powell and Edgard Varèse. But if I kept going, you would probably stop reading this interview pretty soon.
In my trio, one of our primary goals is to perform original music. I love standard repertoire and we play that as well, but in Toronto, there are lots of great players who can play Autumn Leaves a lot better than I do. However there is nowhere else except at my shows where you can hear my original music, so that's pretty important to me.
What are some of your favourite gigs you've played recently?
I've had some great gigs in the past. Just recently I got to play at the Barrie Jazz Festival with the Sam Ruttan Group. I've also been enjoying the local bar gigs that have come up at places like the Emmet Ray and The Cavern. I also really enjoy the gigs I get to do up north in Muskoka, like playing at Nuit Blanche North or the Music at Noon concert series with my trio. Those gigs are a lot of fun because they are where I grew up, so I get to play for lots of old friends and mentors. Overall, it's not really about where I'm playing but who I'm playing with. The hang is always the best part.
Any recordings so far? When might folks expect to hear that EP?
Unfortunately, right now I don't have much as far as recordings go. I have done a few one-off demos through York University … but at this point, nothing substantial. I do plan to release an EP relatively soon, but right now I'm in the early stages of planning, so I definitely don't have a release date. Hopefully I don't keep you waiting too long.
Jazzology was great. First, I have to say that Heather Bambrick is a wonderful host. She made the interview process feel super easy and relaxed. Also, I love how JAZZ.FM91 actually gives young artists a substantial amount of airtime. This isn't just a five-minute interview — we get a whole hour to talk about what's important to us and to play our favourite tunes.
How did the program help with your personal and professional development?
Jazzology basically launched my professional career. It was one of the first chances I got to really think about who I am as an artist. Following the interview, I got a lot of opportunities, like playing with my trio at the Jazz Bistro for Tune Up Toronto or playing in the Kensington Market Jazz Festival as part of Heather Bambrick's curated Jazzology all-star band. Also, being featured on such an iconic radio station really made me feel like I am part of the jazz community, which is important for a developing player.
Would you recommend it to other young musicians? If so, why?
I would definitely recommend the program to other young musicians. In fact, I think young musicians should try to take as many opportunities as possible. It's always better to be acting on something and trying to push yourself forward in your career. That being said, Jazzology is one of the best programs out there for young artists.
Thank you to JAZZ.FM91 and all the donors who support the program! What you are doing is vital to the future of the music community, which makes Toronto such a hot spot for the arts.
There are a number of reasons that music education is important. From my own perspective as an educator, I get to see kids discover their passion and find meaning. As a student, I can appreciate the structures that are in place that can help me grow in my musical career. My education has not only helped me hone my craft, but it can also help me to function as a valuable member of the community.
What about your plans for the future? Where would you like to be years down the road?
I feel that the future for me looks bright, although somewhat uncertain. Having just finished school, I will be moving from Toronto to Ottawa in the next few months. Hopefully I will be able to continue to perform, write and teach there.

Yo Dawg, I herd u like Dodecahedron so I put a Dodecahedron in ur Dodecahedron so u can scramble while u solve!
This popular internet meme accurately describes this puzzle: it is a combination of two puzzles, a Megaminx inside a Master Pentultimate. Both puzzles turn at the same time so solving them requires inventing new strategies.
In effect, this puzzle has all the pieces that are present in the Megaminx, Pyraminx Crystal, Starminx and (Master) Pentultimate. The design of this puzzle was made by starting from a regular Master Pentultimate (using the shells mechanism, which already relies on an internal Megaminx to support the external pieces) and cutting holes in the faces. However, these holes cutting in to the mechanism would create a very much unstable puzzle so I've designed the parts with a wire-like structure that allows you to look inside the puzzle while enabling good rotation.
This puzzle was initially suggested by Carl Hoff, who coined the name Multidodecahedron.
The internal Megaminx has flat faces and is not spherical. However it is of course not a full Dodecahedron either, it is simply a sphere that has 12 caps cut off.
There is also a very subtle clicking mechanism (it is literally impossible to notice) that guarantees good alignment of the Pyraminx Crystal edges. I've designed the caps on the Megaminx faces to click in place so there's no need to glue them in place and the puzzle can (reasonably) easily be taken apart again.
As a consequence of the internal cutouts and wire parts, the internal pieces are not as visible as I would like but the puzzle is still fully playable. You just need reasonable good light and need to be looking somewhat straight at the faces. It was actually very difficult to capture this in the pictures (and video), but it's definitely not that bad.
The puzzle rotates exceedingly smooth and I could not have been happier with the result. It measures 35mm on an edge. The mechanism really didn't force the puzzle to be that large, but I wanted a reasonable area for the stickers. That said, it was a nightmare to sticker this puzzle and I had to use a toothpick to get the stickers under the Megaminx corners.

est un mot-valise anglais, formé sur le modèle de  (« blanchiment », au sens moral), en remplaçant l'adjectif  (« blanc ») par  (« rose »). C'est le procédé mercatique utilisé par un État, organisation, parti politique ou entreprise dans le but de se donner une image progressiste et engagée pour les droits LGBT.

Le terme  est conçu sur le même modèle.

Description

Le terme de  a été inventé par la , une association américaine de patientes souffrant du cancer du sein, en 2002 pour désigner les campagnes des entreprises qui utilisent le cancer du sein comme levier marketing.

Il est aussi utilisé pour critiquer une technique de communication fondée sur une attitude bienveillante vis-à-vis des personnes LGBTQ+ par une entreprise ou par une entité politique, qui essaye de modifier son image et sa réputation dans un sens progressiste, tolérant et ouvert. Cette stratégie de  s'inscrit dans l'arsenal des méthodes d'influence, de management des perceptions et de marketing des idées ou des marques.

Gouvernement israélien
Au moment où Israël accueillait la WorldPride 2005, l'activiste queer et professeure en études de genre à l'université de Rutgers (New Jersey) Jasbir Puar a utilisé cette expression pour décrire le contraste entre l'image de  et . Joseph A. Massad, professeur à l'université Columbia, a aussi défendu l'idée que la façon dont le gouvernement israélien exagère son action en faveur des personnes LGBT lui permet d'éluder la condamnation internationale des violations des droits des palestiniens.

En France, le terme est utilisé en 2005 dans Le Monde: après l'attaque de la Gay Pride de Jérusalem le , le correspondant du quotidien décrit comment les autorités de l'État hébreu utilisent leur image gay-friendly comme outil de communication alors que l'homophobie est très marquée dans ce pays:  Dans son livre Mirage gay à Tel Aviv (2017), le journaliste Jean Stern critique la campagne de communication d'Israël en faveur des LGBT, qu'il assimile à du . Il affirme en effet que cette dernière, initiée à partir de 2008-2009 par la ministre des Affaires étrangères Tzipi Livni afin de mettre en valeur la ville de Tel Aviv-Jaffa, masque le fait que 47 % des Israéliens considèrent l'homosexualité comme une maladie (en comparaison, moins de 10 % en France et moins de 5 % en Espagne ou en Belgique) ou encore, selon l'auteur, que cela tenterait d'atténuer en termes d'image la politique israélienne dans les territoires palestiniens. En 2018, l'acteur Océan a demandé au festival du film LGBT de déprogrammer les séances de son film Embrasse-moi ! en expliquant qu'il .

D'autres ont pris la défense de l'État d'Israël en arguant que cette accusation sert d'épouvantail. Pour Alan Dershowitz, professeur de droit à Harvard et fervent défenseur d'Israël, le terme est utilisé par des activistes gays radicaux et antisémites. Selon lui, l'action d'Israël en faveur des LGBT n'a jamais été utilisée pour excuser l'occupation de la Palestine, et la tolérance d'Israël vis-à-vis des personnes LGBT est sans comparaison avec les violences que subissent ces personnes dans les pays arabes et musulmans. Sarah Schulman, professeure à l'Université de la ville de New York, objecte que cet argument fait semblant d'ignorer l'existence d'organisations palestiniennes LGBT.

Gay games, marches des fiertés et passages piétons
À l'occasion de l'Europride à Marseille en 2013, un  insiste sur la nécessité de s'opposer à la récupération des luttes féministes et/ou LGBT et s'indigne que , Israël, décrit comme étant .

Les Gay Games et la marche des fiertés parisienne 2018 ont aussi parfois été critiqués comme constituant une forme de . En 2018, un contre cortège de la marche des fiertés parisienne avait pour mot d'ordre « Stop au pinkwashing », accusation dont l'association chargée de l'organisation, l'Inter-LGBT, s'est défendue. Soutenue par Karine Espineira et Adrian De La Vega, Diane Leriche s'est indignée que l'association qu'elle co-préside, Acceptess-T, ait été écartée de la conférence sur la place des personnes trans dans le sport à l'occasion des Gay Games: . Les organisateurs se défendent en estimant avoir  de ces jeux.

Plusieurs villes de France ont désormais un ou plusieurs passages piétons aux couleurs du drapeau LGBT. La ville de Bordeaux totalise sept passages piétons de ce type. Le premier passage piéton arc-en-ciel de la ville, inauguré le 16 mai 2019 cours du Chapeau-Rouge, s'est retrouvé recouvert de faux sang dès le week-end qui a suivi cette inauguration. Cet action coup de poing est revendiquée le 19 mai 2019 par le collectif « Riposte Trans ». Ses membres expliquent dans un communiqué (dans lequel le mot « pinkwashing » est clairement utilisé) qu'à leurs yeux la mairie ne prend pas de mesures suffisamment efficaces pour lutter contre les agressions homophobes et transphobes.

Marketing commercial
Act Up New York a critiqué la marque Nike qui a vendu une gamme de produits aux couleurs de la lutte pour les droits LGBT+, en expliquant que .
Plus globalement, les entreprises se prêtant au pinkwashing sont accusées d'avoir fait du mois des fiertés (juin) un simple exercice de communication d'entreprise.

No More County Animal Services in Eugene?
A recent article in the Eugene Register-Guard (Aug. 15) caused a shudder among animal lovers, reporting that Lane County Animal Services (LCAS) stands to lose even more money in its budget. LCAS provides numerous animal services in Eugene, including enforcing the city's animal control code, and providing services such as shelter, adoption, spay/neuter, and licensing dogs and cats. Last year's already tight budget saw LCAS's funding reduced by $100,000.
While the two agencies do overlap, there are significant differences. LCAS takes in strays and enforces complaints about animals who are aggressive, or who aren't being cared for. Greenhill takes in only owner-surrendered animals. Both agencies handle adoptions, but Greenhill needs more "adoptable" animals. The agencies have always collaborated, but efforts have ramped up in recent month.
Cindy Ehlers is a full-time animal behaviorist and training coordinator at LCAS. Her assessments of animals determine whether or not they should be transferred to Greenhill and whether any behavior modifications are needed. Also, prospective adopters through LCAS get a behavior screening on their chosen dog if they have kids.
"People need to have a certain level of awareness and education of dogs around children," says Ehlers, pointing out that dogs at LCAS may be there because they have killed chickens, for instance, or are strays, or may have owners who have died or gone to jail.

Ha! Just when you thought I was going to miss an entire month for journal entries, I slip one in right at the last moment. I haven't been as active as I'd like to be here on RinkWorks lately. Well, getting laid off work and taking long camping trips will put a crimp in your daily routine. But even if I get scarce from time to time, I'll never abandon RinkWorks, and even when my work on the site is not visible, I'm still plugging away at it in one way or another. Currently, most of my effort is still going into a rather large upcoming project of unprecedented size and complexity.
Anyway, I wanted to post a little addendum to the discussion on music that occurred here this past May, in which I discuss the current crop of teen pop bands. I have now consciously paid attention to the work of Britney Spears. I heard it on the radio yesterday while coming home from a camping trip in northern New Hampshire. One of her songs came on, and my wife, Darleen, said, "Oh, Britney Spears!"
And I listened for a moment, and I said, "This is Britney Spears?"
"Yeah," she said.
"It sounds just like the Backstreet Boys!" I said.
"What??" my wife exclaimed. "It's a woman."
"But it doesn't sound like a woman. Her voice is all electronically altered."
"Noooo," my wife scoffed in frustration. "She sings Crazy."
"That's Britney Spears!?" I said.
"Yeah."
"I thought that was the Backstreet Boys!" I said, quite truthfully.
"What!?"
"Ha!" I said with the joy that comes with epiphany. "Britney Spears is a boy band!"


You don't need 20/ 20 vision to see that the whole world is waiting for the Democratic Party to push back against the tyrannical tendencies of the Trump administration. And waiting. And waiting. And waiting.
If this current liberal narrative were being chronicled on the big screen, it would qualify as the most boring horror movie ever made: another "Saw" sequel but one in which everyone sits around talking to their detached limbs and absolutely nothing happens. They are "The Walking Dead" without all the light- hearted slapstick.
Then again, if you mean "party" in terms of a gathering of like- minded individuals, that too, leaves quite a bit to be desired. More like a loose collection of misfits who cluster together for the sole purpose of claiming not to like President Donald Trump. Or each other. And that's about it. They don't really stand for anything, not even the National Anthem.
So if you're waiting for Democrats to stand up to this wanna- be third world strongman and establish any sort of resistance at all, you'd best be advised not to hold your breath unless you enjoy that certain bluish look most often associated with people no longer eligible for social security benefits due to the fact they've become altogether much too skinny and dead.

Film DVD Culture
The Young One (Lionsgate, 1960)
The Milky Way (Criterion, 1969)
In the prologue to Un Chien Andalou, Luis Buñuel's 1928 collaboration with Salvador Dali, a character played by Buñuel cuts lead actress Simonne Mareuil's eye open with a straight razor. The eye in fact belonged to a dead calf. Either way, a director cutting an eye—as he might cut a strip of celluloid—at the start of his own film encourages a few interpretations. When questioned about the film's symbolism, Buñuel declared, "Nothing symbolizes anything." He'd once dreamt about a thin cloud slicing the moon in half like an eye, and found it a sufficiently irrational image to precede his irrational film. Un Chien resulted from Buñuel and Dali free-associating images that surprised them, and eliminating anything with symbolic significance. Buñuel thought people who praised the film for its "beauty" missed the point. To him the film was a call to murder. Such was Buñuel's faith in the mysteries of Surrealism. It enabled him to remain an atheist all his life, for which, in a typical paradox, he thanked God.
Two late-career Buñuel films, shot during his period of exile in Mexico, are now available on DVD: The Young One (1960) through Lionsgate, and The Milky Way (1969) through Criterion. Though formally quite different, they show Buñuel's affinity for the grey areas between innocence and sin, and his distaste for the easily psychoanalyzable. He was most at home with what he called "the fundamental ambiguity of all things." His refusal to take a stance was unnerving, and often infuriating, to viewers and critics.
By the time Buñuel made The Young One, he'd been a Mexican citizen for ten years and in exile from Spain for twenty-four. Despite two years of unemployment in Hollywood in the mid-Forties, Buñuel was on the verge of gaining US citizenship when producer Oscar Dancigers suggested he make a film in Mexico. The ease of obtaining a visa, and a growing community of Spanish expatriates and blacklisted Americans, made Mexico an attractive option. The Young One, filmed in Acapulco and Mexico City, is one of twenty films Buñuel directed south of the border. He considered it an "American" film, alongside 1952's Robinson Crusoe, in that it was filmed in English and involved mostly American actors. Its unpopular take on race and sexual relations resulted in rejection on both American and European soil.
Sidney Poitier was appearing in films like The Defiant Ones (1958) and Lillies of the Field (1963) around this time, challenging racial stereotypes through a series of Christ-like characters often paired off against bigoted whites. The Young One involves a similar scenario: a hip, black clarinet player named Travers (Bernie Hamilton) arrives on an island hunting preserve owned by a redneck named Happy (Zachary Scott). Travers is fleeing the bogus charge of raping a white woman. Happy recently inherited the custody of a wildy naive and newly pubescent girl, Evvie (Key Meersman), whose only convincing emotion is the fear of being molested. Any resemblances to early Poitier films end here. If Sidney were accused of raping a white woman in a film, he would not place his jacket over a thirteen-year-old white girl's shoulders to quell his lust for her, as does Travers. Nor would Happy be swayed into raping Evvie by the aphrodisiac tune of Travers late-night clarinet. Buñuel even gives Happy (the racist pedophiliac who complains to Travers "I just can't see you as a human being!") a fair shake. Happy offers room and board to the black man, and eventually inspires his trust.
Buñuel admits the film failed for its anti-Manichean viewpoint; that is, its dismissal of a clear duality between light and darkness, good and evil. A Harlem newspaper reviewer wrote that Señor Buñuel should be hung, upside down, from a streetlight on 5th Ave. (In typical form, Buñuel later dreamed of declaring himself a staunch Manichean.) To further the point, a pastor shows up late in the film to baptize Evvie and put a lid on both guys' instinctive and sexual drives. "Preserve me at all costs from nature and her adverse moods!" says the man of God, arriving in a rainstorm.
In 1969 Buñuel was still living in Mexico, but traveled to Spain and France to film The Milky Way, his exhaustive two-hour assault on the hypocrisies of Catholic dogma. He wrote the screenplay with Jean-Claude Carriére, his close friend and collaborator on six scripts, including Belle du Jour and The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie. Carriére helped to compose much of Buñuel's autobiography, My Last Sigh, and appears in The Milky Way as the head of a group of Priscillians—people who believed that to destroy evil and liberate the soul, the body must be unceasingly exposed to pleasures of the flesh.
The movie unfolds like the dream of a brilliant though heavily indoctrinated priest on the eve of his giving up the cloth. Which is to say The Milky Way is an intense, surreal cinematic collage of six great Christian themes: the Eucharist; the origin of evil; the dual nature of Christ as word and man; the Holy Trinity; the conflict of Christian virtue and freedom; and the Virgin Mary's virginity. It follows the pilgrimage of two tramps (Paul Frankeur and Laurent Terzieff) to Santiago de Compostela, Spain, jumping back and forth in time between Biblical scenes and modern intellectual discussions. The first scene drops us in the midst of a conversation between a policeman and a cleric in a cafe. "You must take the word of Christ literally," demands the cleric. The policeman responds: "Sorry, but it just doesn't make any sense to me." "All the more reason to believe!" says the cleric. "Religion without mystery is no religion at all." Moments later, personnel from a psychiatric clinic come to collect the cleric in a van.
Buñuel was raised a Catholic in what he considered the medieval gestalt of Calanda, Spain. He was enamored of the mysteries inherent in religious belief, but eventually rejected religion because it compromised his moral freedom. He claims to have forfeited the potential illumination of Christianity for what Andre Breton termed the "profane illuminations" of Surrealism, which put no restrictions on his imagination. In essence, The Milky Way portrays the Christian belief Buñuel abandoned using techniques of the art form that took its place. A representative sequence begins with a woodland orgy of Priscillians. Buñuel intercuts to a maitre d'hotel explaining the dual nature of Christ, then to Canaan's wedding where a decidedly lackluster Jesus (think Eric Stolz in Pulp Fiction) indifferently turns water into wine, then to an anarchist firing squad shooting the pope, then to a peaceful charity ceremony of children robotically reciting Christian doctrine. A bewildered man in the audience asks one of the pilgrims, "Was that a firing squad I just heard?" The pilgrim calmly replies, "Oh, no, that was just my imagination."
The film was a success, although it elicited serious and contradictory criticism. Julio Cortazar felt the Vatican must have funded it. Carlos Fuentes interpreted it as an antireligious war flick. Buñuel was, of course, indifferent to such reactions. To him the movie wasn't for or against anything. One of its ideologically frustrated characters whines: "The fact that science and technology fill me with contempt can't help but force me to believe in God." Buñuel saw another way out. A person can always choose, as he wrote, "to simply live in the mystery."

Laura Aguilar: Show and Tell
By Rachel Remick
MARCH 2021 | ArtSeen
In Sandy's Room (1989–1990) is one of Laura Aguilar's (1959–2018) most well-known images—a self-portrait, a monumental nude, a rejection of the fetishization of women's bodies. It is one of Aguilar's largest single prints, more than three feet tall and four feet wide. Within her retrospective, Laura Aguilar: Show and Tell, this immense work is reconfigured as one sentence within the much larger story that Aguilar's work tells about the complexity and embodied experience of identity.

Months later, the IRS is still targeting activists who oppose Obama's policies.
Months after the inspector general's report in May that revealed the IRS had specifically targeted tea-party groups applying for tax-exempt status as charitable organizations, the IRS continued to stall pro-life groups' applications for tax-exempt status, according to the Thomas More Society (TMS). What President Obama condemned as one of various "phony scandals" isn't nearly over yet.
"Even though the inspector general's report claimed that the harassment of tea-party groups ended in 2012, the harassment of pro-life groups continues unabated," says Peter Breen, Thomas More's vice president and senior counsel.
#ad#In a memo released yesterday, TMS, a nonprofit law firm focused on pro-life and religious-liberty causes, detailed the obstacles that three different pro-life groups faced in their attempts to be recognized as charitable institutions. Two of the organizations, Cherish Life Ministries and LIFE Runners, have finally been granted tax-exempt status (although it took until late July for the latter to receive it), while a third, Emerald Coast Coalition for Life, is still waiting.
Both Cherish Life and LIFE endured an unusually lengthy application process: It took them 16 and 14 months respectively to receive 501(c)(3) status (which is for tax-exempt charities). According to TMS, the IRS approves most groups within nine months.
But there are troubling signs that the delays were motivated by disapproval of the groups' pro-life work. The IRS asked LIFE, "Does your organization provide information regarding other alternatives to 'pro life'?" To put that question into context, recall that Planned Parenthood has 501(c)(3) status. LIFE co-founder and president Pat Castle says he found the question "shocking."
The pro-life groups also observed other red flags. Both LIFE and Emerald Coast were deemed to need an "Exempt Organization specialist" to review their application, an extra hurdle in the process that most groups don't face. The IRS letter to Emerald Coast stating that the organization would need such a specialist was signed by none other than Lois Lerner. The letter, which Emerald Coast received September 7, 2012, informed the group that the IRS would be in touch in approximately 90 days. The IRS didn't contact Emerald Coast, however, until June 19, 2013 — 285 days later.
Furthermore, both LIFE and Cherish Life initially received letters from the IRS stating that they were not eligible for 501(c)(3) status. If the groups had not persisted and appealed, they would not have received tax-exempt status.
According to LIFE's Castle, who is also an Air Force commander, the long delay hurt the group financially. LIFE had initially applied for the tax-exempt status in March 2012. Having heard that many groups received such status six to eight months after the IRS received their application, LIFE anticipated winning approval by October 2012, when the group held one of its biggest events. But they had not received any answer from the IRS by then. Nor had the group yet received tax-exempt status when it held other large events in January, March, and April 2013.
"It hurt us," Castle says bluntly, noting that the October 2012 marathon event (runners across the country participate in Marathons to benefit LIFE Runners) was particularly crucial. "We would have been able to say, 'Hey, sponsors, contributors, we're tax-exempt.' We weren't able to do that."
"If the process went as it should have gone, we would have been able to motivate a whole lot more giving," Castle says. "Of course it affects contributions."
TMS's Breen underscores that we should see these pro-life groups as part of a "pattern of harassment from the IRS starting in 2009" and continuing to this day.
"The only conclusion we can draw," Breen says, "is that it was the Obama administration that changed a policy, whether informally or formally, which resulted in numerous organizations being targeted."
And it's giving left-wing organizations an unfair advantage.
"Left-wing groups don't have to go and get lawyers and make constitutional arguments to justify their existence as public charities," Breen points out. At least for now, some pro-life groups are still facing partisan hurdles from the IRS when it comes to obtaining tax-exempt status.

2016 Mercedes-Benz SLC & SLC 43 AMG revealed, new SLK
Mitchell Jones Dec 16, 2015
AMG, Car News, Diesel, Mercedes-Benz, Turbo
Mitchell Jones
Mercedes-Benz has revealed the new generation two-seat roadster, called the 'R173' SLC. Replacing the R172 SLK, the SLC is the mid-cycle facelift with minor updates.
The biggest changes are under the bonnet, with a new 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 on the SLC 43 AMG. Opening the range is the 135kW/300Nm SLC 200, with the SLC 300 offering a higher state of tune at 180Kw and 370Nm from a similar 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder.
Europeans have a choice of oil-burner as well, with the 149kW 2.1-litre SLC 250d, with an official fuel consumption rate of 4.4L/100km. Despite the economy, acceleration from 0-100km/h comes up in 6.6 seconds. The sprint for the 200 and 300 are 7.9 and 7.0 seconds, respectively, with the 43 AMG achieving it in 4.7 seconds.
The new V6 AMG engine produces 270kW and 520Nm, while returning an average consumption of 7.8L/100km – an improvement of 8 per cent over the V8-engined SLK 55 AMG. The trade-off to this efficiency is a 0-100km/h time 0.1 seconds slower. A benefit of the switch, aside from less weight, is better emissions, rated at 178g/km.
Transmission choices range from a six-speed manual on the SLC 200 and 300, and a nine-speed automatic available across the range. Suspension changes including new axles, stiffer sub-frame mountings and sharper steering point to a more focused driving experience, while a limited-slip diff is available in the 'Handling' package.
Styling changes are not substantial, but the cabin gets a 7.0-inch touch-screen display with updated apps, while there's also new technologies including Collision Prevention Assist Plus, optional LED lighting, and Traffic Sign recognition. Pricing and local specifications are expected to come closer to the car's 2016 launch.

Q: 'Pomp' in 'dressed in white English pomp' What does the phrase dressed in white English pomp mean in the following sentence, which appears in an article in the New York Times?

Until my grandfather died, a slide carousel was a staple of family
Christmases: the photographs of Nan, Pop and their five daughters
dressed in white English pomp for a country show or the horse races
were my own iconic images of this mysterious land. (source)

The only recent instance of similar usage of pomp I've been able to find is this:

By all accounts, the wedding was an elegant and traditional affair
with the Gutshaus (more a squire's country seat than a simple
farmhouse) of his parents-in-law lovingly bedecked with massed
flowers, the wedding party all gaily dressed in full military pomp
and civil finery.
(source)

There are two more instances, from the early 1800s:

Yet it was obvious to every reader, even of the English Testament,
that the songs of Mary, of Zacharias, and of Simeon, breathe the very
spirit of ancient poetry; that they are not only dressed in the
figurative pomp, but formed in the antithesis and parallelism, by
which it is
characterized. (source)

Upon this memorable day, the king appeared on his throne of state,
dressed in all the pomp imaginable, and surrounded by his
grandees, the magi, and the deputies from all the neighbouring
nations...
(source)

The problem is that the dictionaries do not seem to record this usage of pomp. Here is the full definition from the Oxford English Dictionary:

1.
a. Splendid display or celebration; magnificent show or ceremony. Formerly frequently with negative connotation: ostentatious, specious,
or boastful show; vainglory (frequently coupled with pride).
b. In pl. with same sense.    (a) In or with allusion to the various forms of the baptismal formula used in the catechism, as
the devil and all his pomps, the pomps and vanities of this wicked world, etc.
(b) gen.
c. fig. Chiefly poet. Splendid or impressive display in nature.
2. a. A triumphal or ceremonial procession or train; a pageant; a splendid show or display along a line of march. Now arch.
and hist.
b. literary. Any procession or sequence of persons or things.
Also: an imposing movement of water, etc. Now rare.
†3. concr. A splendid or showy ornament, appurtenance, etc.
Obs.
†4. magistrate of the pomps n. a sumptuary officer in
Venice. Obs.

The closest that the OED comes is the 3. (and obsolete) usage, A splendid or showy ornament, appurtenance, etc. Here appurtenance means a possession or piece of property that is considered to be a typical feature of a particular way of living (see e.g. here). However, it doesn't make sense to say that someone was dressed in splendid ornament. Moreover, in this OED entry, pomp seems to be a count noun (a splendid or showy ornament), whereas pomp in dressed in white English pomp seems to be uncount, since there is no determiner before white.
I looked at all the hits for 'pomp' at www.onelook.com. Some alternative phrasings that could be relevant include:
ostentatious display (here)
Pomp is the use of a lot of ceremony, fine clothes, and decorations, especially on a special occasion <...the pomp and splendour of the English aristocracy> (here)
ceremonial elegance and splendor, a synonym of eclat (here) ('When you do something with eclat, you do it with great style or an amazing effect. A skilled magician performs all of her tricks with eclat.') (here)
Display; ostentation; parade; splendor; magnificence. (here)
pompous displays, actions, or things: < The official was accompanied by all the pomps of his high position. > (here)
This last entry seems promising because it has things. But I doubt the author of the NYT article meant to say that the five daughters were dressed in white English pompous things; I doubt he meant any negative connotation in that sentence, and pompous definitely has a negative connotation.
You might ask, why not ceremonial elegance and splendor? Two reasons. First, in this meaning, pomp is meant to be like eclat, and that word used as in entered with much eclat in a coach drawn by eight white horses (see e.g. here). It doesn't sound like you can be dressed in eclat (indeed, searching google books for "dressed in * eclat" produces zero hits). Second, the OED's definitions are characteristically quite fine-grained, much finer than that of the other dictionaries, and none of the definitions from the OED fit.
Nevertheless, my best guess is that the writer meant something like this: their five daughters dressed in white English ceremonial elegance for a country show. In particular, searching google books for "dressed in * elegance" does produce some hits, e.g. listeners found a competent lecturer of "commanding presence," dressed in modest elegance; Lucinda herself was dressed in casual elegance in an expensive sleeveless blouse and slacks; People of Fashion dressed in high elegance would pass those in all manner of dress and undress.
But it still seems a bit strange usage to me, because of the presence of white English. I would have expected the word that follows white English to refer to some particular style of clothing, some fancy style of English dress.
Moreover, note that the OED's definition for elegance does have an entry that is (roughly) consistent with usage where elegance means an attire: As a count noun: something that is elegant; an elegant gesture, style of behaviour, etc. The fit is not perfect, because the OED says that it should be a count noun, whereas all the examples of elegance from I gave above seem to use it as uncount noun, judging by the lack od determiners. Still, note that there is no similar entry for pomp in the OED, where pomp could refer to an attire. The closest it comes is splendid or showy ornament, but, as I've said, it doesn't make sense to say that someone was dressed in splendid ornament.
Another possible source of confusion: the context of the text is Australian outback in times past, so there could be also racial connotations, i.e. the white could refer not to the color of the dress, but to the race of the people involved.
So, what does dressed in white English pomp mean, precisely? Also, do you find it to be unusual usage? Confusing usage?

A: The answer is simpler than one may think. The word pomp is used as a metonimy and must be put in context: in Ascot and other English races (and consequently also in Australia), the epitome of elegance for women has been to wear white dresses, with fine fabric and cut (long!), as well as hats.
Plenty of pictures of elegant white dresses at the races can be found on the web, but here is a press article, picked 'Google-randomly'.
'English pomp' thus refers here to the horse races ceremonial still in usage in England's upper classes, where respect of the dress code is paramount (and the opportunity for women to display their elegant attire as a status symbol).
Hence white English pomp would stand for a periphrase like:

classy white dresses in usage at the English horse races.

In my humble opinion, white English pomp is a splendid literary invention.

A:
The closest it comes is splendid or showy ornament, but, as I've said, it doesn't make sense to say that someone was dressed in splendid ornament.

I can't see why that doesn't make sense.
Ok, not in a literal way if you insist on trying to imagine someone dressed in an ornament (although people may dress up as garden gnomes occasionally).
However, metonymy allows for a lot of (artistic) freedom. Who hasn't heard of the beehive on a woman's head or wouldn't understand the image of a person dressed up as, say, a wedding cake?
The image the author tries to paint is that of lavish coquettery, old fashioned high style with possible echos of extravagance.
Now, pomp may not be (much) in current use anymore, but pompous still is:

1 : excessively elevated or ornate ·pompous rhetoric
  2 : having or exhibiting self-importance : arrogant ·a pompous politician
  3 : relating to or suggestive of pomp or splendor : magnificent

And of course, there is this quite well-know piece of music that everybody who has ever watched the last Night of the Proms can dream: Pomp and Circumstance, March #1, better known to many as Land of Hope and Glory.

Satellite TV provider Dish Network (NASDAQ:DISH) became the largest U.S. company to start accepting the digital crypto-currency bitcoin as a form of payment.
Starting in the third quarter, Dish will accept bitcoins for pay-TV subscription services, joining other small and large companies, most notably online retailer Overstock (NASDAQ:OC) and digital games maker Zynga (NASDAQ:ZNGA), in accepting the controversial digital currency.
Overstock in March said it had surpassed $1 million worth of purchases from Bitcoin users in just the first two months after launching the service.
The hope is the currency, while still extremely volatile and subject to criticism, will attract a niche group of tech-savvy consumers already using – or soon hoping to use – bitcoins for regular daily purchases.
Bitcoins are not backed by any central government or bank, and are anonymous in nature.
"We always want to deliver choice and convenience for our customers and that includes the method they use to pay their bills," said Bernie Han, Dish chief operating officer. "Bitcoin is becoming a preferred way for some people to transact and we want to accommodate those individuals."
Dish is partnering with bitcoin marketplace Coinbase, backed by venture fund Andreessen Horowitz, Union Square Ventures and Y Combinator, to process the transactions, utilizing a new service that immediately exchanges bitcoins to U.S. dollars at the moment of the transaction.
This could help Dish lower the costs it pays on processing fees, as credit card operators like Visa (NYSE:V) and MasterCard (NYSE:MA) tend to demand much higher fees.
However, the currency still has mounds of challenges to overcome, including pressure to regulate as well as a number of recent setbacks, notably the theft and subsequent bankruptcy earlier this year of Mt. Gox, once the largest Bitcoin exchange.
Shares of Dish were up 0.41% to $59.43 in recent trade.


The Culver 27 US Fluid Ounce Impulse Tumbler features Superior Vacuum Insulation. Includes Straw for Use with Cold Beverages. It incorporates three of the best forms of drinkware insulation: 1) Double Wall, 2) Vacuum Insulation, 3) Copper Lining. The Double Wall eliminates condensation on the exterior wall while retaining the internal temperature longer through various levels of insulation, as shown in photo. Vacuum Insulation removes all the air between the inner and outer walls. This vacuum practically eliminates convection through which heat or cold is transferred away from its source. Copper Lining on the exterior of the inner wall helps to further ensure beverages keep their temperature for extended periods of time. Copper is a natural insulator, and its placement on the outside of the inner wall provides a maximum benefit. On average, beverages with Vacuum Copper Insulation stay hot for 8 hours and stay cold for 24 hours. Care Instructions: HAND WASH ONLY - Dishwasher may damage product or lid seal. Do Not Place in Microwave, Do Not Overfill, Hot Liquids Can Burn. Do not use bleach or abrasive cleaners containing chlorine to clean. Always check to make sure your lid is tightly secure before drinking.

Disconnecting or disabling the puff limiter will do absolutely nothing to make the RPM drop quicker. It WILL make the engine accelerate more rapidly once you catch the next higher gear, the side effect being black clouds of smoke from the exhaust until the turbocharger "catches up" & starts pushing in enough air for a clean burn.
I've got a chrome dog that came from a 91 RB sittin' right here on my desk, it's symmetrical & still has the 87931 on it. I had a 96 CL with all Mack drivetrain that had the gold dog on it, that truck also had the Elite package.
I'll never understand why so many people want to change trucks over from spoke wheels to Budds or Unimounts. Wheel wobble on spoke wheels is not an issue if they're "trued up" when installed.
Yup, I'm gettin' "stranger" all the time!!!!!!! How's everything in NY???????
Looking for a good running E7 350 mechanical. Preferably somewhere near Wisconsin.
Paul Bacco & Son Contractors in Stamford CT had some 1955 LJSWX 10 wheeler dump trucks & they all had the typical LJ type 5x2 transmission.
The side gear splines on 34, 38, & 44K Mack carriers are the same. They all use CRDP92 & CRD93 carriers.
PPG 40496 is the original Mack green, just as Mad dog said above.
Don't know, but the 79 & 80 came from Hartford Mack within 6 months of each other.
The 1985 DM686S that I had was equipped with the hood scoop for the tip turbine, and when I worked at AC&S excavating, they had a 1980 DM686SX with the hood scoop, and also a 1979 DM686SX with the double element air cleaner and no scoop.
last letter i maxidyne engine number ?
That's not the original engine if the truck is a 76. Mack started that "ETA" type engine model designation around 1979 or 80. Regarding the "B" meaning Dynatard equipped, that "B" right after the ETA would mean that. The "B" suffix at the end ?? I'm not sure.
If they've got automatic transmissions in them, that pretty much renders any truck useless.
The ENDT673B 225hp Thermodyne was in between the 205 & the 250. It had the piston coolers.
The ENDT673C 250 hp Thermodyne was first offered in 68 or 69 I believe.

A: Use absorption laws $p\vee (p\wedge q) = p\wedge (p\vee q) = p$
(and of course $p\implies q = \neg p\vee q$)

Stranger Things 3 score to receive multi-color vinyl release
Specifically, "Fireworks Splatter", "Neon Pink", and "Turquoise Marble Effect"
Stranger Things 3 - Original Score
Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein's Stranger Things 3 score is heading to vinyl. Lakeshore and Invada Records have announced the release of not one, not two, but three different editions for fans to go Upside Down about at their local record shop (or online).
For the US fans, Lakeshore will release its "Fireworks Splatter" edition, which jives with the show's Fourth of July narrative. Fans outside the States will be able to pick up Invada's "Neon Pink" variant with a "Turquoise Marble Effect" edition as a webstore exclusive.
Spanning 41 tracks, Dixon and Stein stress that the Season 3 soundtrack "doesn't feel like a 'score' necessarily, but one that feels more like a stand-alone record than a collection of brief cues." Tracks like "Starcourt" and "Aftermath" back up that statement.
(Read: A Guide to All the Stranger Things 3 Merch and Promotions)
For more information on the score, listen in to our new interview with Dixon and Stein, who appear on this week's episode of Relevant Content. Hosted by Dedrick Hendrix, the weekly series airs on Consequence of Sound Radio exclusively on TuneIn.
"Fireworks Splatter"
"Turquoise Marble Effect"
The vinyl is slated for an October release and both Lakeshore and Invada are currently taking pre-orders. Lucky for you, we're giving away one copy of each edition for absolutely no cost whatsoever. So, don't be a mouth breather and enter below.

Palace Music (April 12, 1981 – January 7, 2008) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse and a Champion sire who won Group/Grade 1 stakes in both Europe and the United States.

Background
Bred by Walter J. Salmon, Jr. at his Mereworth Farm in Lexington, Kentucky, he was sired by Northern Dancer's son, The Minstrel. His dam was Come My Prince, a daughter of Prince John, whom The Bloodhorse magazine called "one of the greatest broodmare sires of all time."

Purchased and raced by Nelson Bunker Hunt and Bruce McNall's Summa Stable, he was conditioned for racing on turf in France by Patrick Biancone.

Racing career
At age three Palace Music won the Group 3 Prix Daphnis at Longchamp Racecourse in Paris. In the fall he won the Group 1 Champion Stakes at Newmarket Racecourse in England. As a four-year-old, Palace Music's only significant win in 1985 came in the Group 3 La Coupe de Maisons-Laffitte at Maisons-Laffitte Racecourse. Sent to the United States for the November 2, 1985 Breeders' Cup Mile, hosted that year by Aqueduct Racetrack, Palace Music finished second to Cozzene but was disqualified for interference and placed ninth.

Palace Music remained in the United States, Allen E. Paulson acquired an interest in Palace Music from Bruce McNall. Turned over to American Hall of Fame trainer Charlie Whittingham, in 1986 the then five-year-old Palace Music won three stakes races on turf in California and came from fifteen lengths back to finish second by a head to Last Tycoon in the November 1, 1986 Breeders' Cup Mile hosted by Santa Anita Park in California. Shipped east to Maryland, two weeks later Palace Music finished third to long-shot winner Lieuenant's Lark in the Washington, D.C. International Stakes at Laurel Park Racecourse.

Stud record
Retired from racing having won or placed in fourteen group/graded stakes races, in 1987 Palace Music stood at stud at Nelson Bunker Hunt's Bluegrass Farm near Lexington, Kentucky. The following year, he stood at Allen Paulson's Brookside Farms near Versailles, Kentucky. He remained there through the 1990 breeding season, after which he was sent to Segenhoe Stud in New South Wales, Australia, and later to Rangal Park Stud in Victoria.

Overall, Palace Music sired more than 400 winners, of which 33 were stakes race winners. He was also the damsire of 39 stakes winners. During his time at stud in the United States, he sired U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee Cigar. A 1990 foal, beginning in 1994 Cigar won sixteen consecutive races, tying the record set by Citation in 1949. His wins included the 1995 Breeders' Cup Classic and the Dubai World Cup. The two-time American Horse of the Year retired the richest horse in the history of world Thoroughbred racing with earnings of US$9,999,815.

Palace Music also met with considerable success as a shuttle stallion between Australia and New Zealand. Among the notable runners he sired were Group One winners Ready To Explode, Anthems, and Naturalism, a multi-millionaire whose wins included the Group One Australian Derby (1992), Rosehill Guineas (1992), and Caulfield Stakes (1993). Another son, Palace Line, earned Champion honors racing in South Africa and in Singapore.

Pensioned in January 2005,  on January 7, 2008 twenty-seven-year-old Palace Music was humanely euthanized at Rangal Park Stud.
