The Novokuznetsk School of Photography: Nikolay Bakharev, Vladimir Vorobyov, Vladimir Sokolaev
Multimedia Art Museum (Moscow): 11.03.2016—9.05.2016
Eltsin Center (Ekaterinbug) 15.07.2016—23.10.2016
Exhibition on MAMM's site
This exhibition continues a series of MAMM projects devoted to the history of Russian photography and the history of Russia in photography. Although united by the umbrella term 'school', it represents Novokuznetsk photographers whose aims were diametrically opposed, both in terms of worldview and aesthetics.
Nikolai Bakharev is one of the most important and enigmatic figures in Russian photography of the late 20th century. A provincial custom-portrait photographer, from the early 1990s he became an acclaimed artist in Russia and abroad. His work is featured in group and solo exhibitions, as well as museum and private collections; his images were included in the main programme of the 55th Venice Biennale, and at the Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie d'Arles in 2013.
Born in the village of Mikhailovka in the Altai region in 1946, Nikolai Bakharev lost his parents at an early age and grew up in a children's home. He began his working life at the Kuznetsk Metallurgical Combine (KMC), where Vorobyov and Sokolaev worked as staff photographers from the 1970s to early 1980s. In 1970, at the age of 24, Bakharev was employed as a professional photographer in a service centre, and the 'custom photography' format became the determining individual aesthetic for him. Images made to order had to satisfy the customer, so Bakharev carefully arranged the composition and poses, capturing his subjects at moments of happiness and maximum self-expression.
The 'Relationship' cycle was photographed on Novokuznetsk beaches in the late 1980s to early 1990s, when the customary Soviet way of life fell apart and photographers were obliged to seek clients on an individual basis. In particular they worked on beaches, taking souvenir snaps for vacationers. Bakharev's photographs, at first sight the usual 'beach shots', have become classics of Russian photography, the portrait of a historical era at the moment of disintegration. As holidaymakers cast off their clothes they also abandoned the social determinacy of Soviet citizens who were raised to live as cogs in a system that neutralised individuality, including gender differences, to the utmost degree. These undressed people posing for a street photographer spontaneously show their desire for togetherness. Naturally enough, the majority are group portraits.
Bakharev's artistic technique requires the photographer to be aesthetically distanced from his subject yet fully engaged in creating the composition. This tactic was wholly atypical for Soviet photography of that period. It could be said that Bakharev photographs his subjects in the aesthetics of naïve art or art brut, reducing to the minimum his authorial intrusion, which remains offstage appears only at the moment of staging, of setting the mechanisms for self-presentation by his characters.
With regard to outlook and aesthetic position Vladimir Sokolaev and Vladimir Vorobyov were opposed to the very idea of 'custom photography' and even worked as staff photographers at a major Soviet metallurgical plant, a classified facility — the Kuznetsk Metallurgical Combine. They show an affinity to photographic developments that originated among amateur enthusiasts spurred by Khrushchev's Thaw of the late 1950s to early 1960s. Here the individuality and inner world of a particular subject are the primary focus, and this trend was apposite to the canons of Socialist Realism that unified individuals to the point of social generality — the Soviet people.
In 1978 Vorobyov, Sokolaev and Alexander Trofimov formed the TRIVA association for creative photography, which was officially registered two years later and became the first creative group of photographers registered in the USSR.
Back in the 1960s the Ministry of Black Metallurgy issued a decree for the organisation of film and photo studios at all major plants to record ideologically sound, high-quality materials about the production process. One of these studios, KMC-Film, appeared at the Kuznetsk Metallurgical Combine. This mighty film and photo centre that provided all the essential lighting and shooting equipment, reactants and photographic paper became a base for the TRIVA group's activities. Group participants took photographs on the site of this massive classified plant to which other photographers were usually denied access. They were the first group to hold street exhibitions, on factory information stands in the city. During their one year of existence the group participated in 19 exhibitions, some of them abroad.
However, one year after their registration the group was disbanded by a resolution of the CPSU Kemerovo Oblast Committee, 'for distributing ideologically harmful photographs'. This was the official reaction when the photographers attempted to send images to Amsterdam, to the World Press Photo Contest. In 1982 all the TRIVA participants were dismissed from the combine, but Sokolaev and Vorobyov soon formed a photo laboratory at another enterprise and continued to work jointly. In the words of Sokolaev, 'once deprived of the factory, we took our Leicas and went out on the streets of our native city'.
The TRIVA members had their own concept of photography, gradually and uncompromisingly developed, therefore we may refer to these photographers as a school. There was complete absence of the staged composition that dominated official Soviet photographic art. They also practised strict non-interference in the event under documentation, rejected artificially created 'artist embellishment' and printed full-frame images. Vladimir Sokolaev describes the principles and interests of the group as follows: 'The theory of photography was very seriously examined, its origins as reportage (…). Use of the regular 50 mm lenses became a determining factor, since they produced photography that retained a perspective customary for the human eye, with the sense of a 'window on events.' The method of immersion in an event became the basic photographic technique. To emphasise the all-encompassing nature of the document we began printing the whole negative, including the perforations. After a while we omitted the perforations in our prints, it seemed too 'arty', but we still print the full negative, to this day…'
After dismissal from the combine, the photographers no longer had access to official exhibitions and their work was kept 'for the desk drawer'. The majority of photographs that can be viewed today in MAMM were once only accessible to a narrow amicable coterie of photographers, by means of apartment exhibitions and samizdat photo albums. Theoretical interpretation and critical reactions to their photography were also limited to a close circle: when in Moscow the photographers met with Alexander Slyusarev, Valery Shchekoldin, Vladimir Semin and Yuri Rybchinsky.
Today, thirty years later, the TRIVA photographers have gained the recognition they deserve. In 2013 a large-scale exhibition entitled 'TRIVA Manifesto of the Proletariat' was compiled by the Siberian Centre for Contemporary Art and shown in Tomsk, Krasnoyarsk, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk and Kemerovo.
With the exhibition 'Novokuznetsk School of Photography' MAMM continues to bridge gaps in the history of Russian photography. Vladimir Sokolaev has for many years actively preserved, systematised and described the creative legacy of the TRIVA group, and the Museum is indebted to him for assistance in preparing this exhibition.

Finally, the clock has struck your magic hour. Anticipation is finally over and the band is performing a subtle rumble. You open your lunch-bag and an aroma of the fresh salad is overwhelming. Now, you are frantically searching for your fork. A rigid symphony plays in your stomach. Your worst food nightmares have come true. NO FORK! What should you do? Wrestle within your own strength and use a spoon or do you go searching for a fork?
You try using a spoon to eat a leafy salad… Cumbersome, right?! It can be done, but a fork would be more sufficient. You will keep getting frustrated, trying to do it your way in a sense.
The fork is our NOW faith, no matter what happens with this salad (obstacle) you will come out on the other side of that thang victorious. If you keep scuffling with the spoon your endurance will eventually wither. Your confidence will drop and you will feel defeated. Hold on to God's promises because we know that all things work together for good. Romans 8:28 (NKJV) Yes, that salad has a place in your plan.
Eat the salad, but use a fork. Our faith should not waver it says, "God I do not trust You." So, let me continue to try and muddle through using a spoon.
Fork me please! My faith is planted and rooted in the Lord.

April 17, 2020 jayaselaluLeave a Comment on Coronavirus And Its Effect On Global Economy
Econolodgestocktonca.com – Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province, People's Republic of China, was suddenly known throughout the world. In the city of 9 million people, the first coronavirus (Covid-19) attack began. The virus that was thought to have originated from the animal then became a global pandemic that claimed thousands of lives. Not only in mainland China, the coronavirus has also spread to 108 countries until March 2020.
Coronavirus is not the only epidemic that shocked the world. In 2003, the virus was once epidemic with the name Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV) which also began in China. The initial transmission was thought to be from mongoose animals and infected the first 1,000 people in 130 days. The ratio of deaths from this virus is 5 out of 50 people infected.
Then, coronavirus with another type also appeared in the Middle East in 2012. The virus is known as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) which is thought to spread through camels. Meanwhile, the Covid-19 outbreak has caused global concern. This is due to the rapid spread of the virus, which only takes 48 days to infect the first 1,000 people. No doubt numerous countries made a number of efforts to isolate the spread of the virus.
Numerous countries are taking steps to prevent the entry of viruses that cause pneumonia and fever. Including Indonesia, which stopped direct flights and to China. Not only China, the government has also restricted the entry of people from Iran, Italy, and South Korea.
Coronavirus Affects The Chinese Economy
Wuhan is one of the economic centers in China. Based on the data, the city's GDP reached 1,48 trillion yuan. With this amount of GDP, Wuhan is among the top 10 cities with the largest economy in China.
As quoted from the SCMP, stopping economic activity and closing access will not only cripple Wuhan. Coronavirus outbreak is estimated to have an impact on the Chinese economy. Furthermore, Wuhan is the link between the central China region and other regions.
The city has become the center of the automotive and steel industry in China. In fact, in recent years, it has invested into a high-tech center for the optical industry. Microsoft and the German software company SAP are known to build industries in this city. As well as automotive companies such as Dongfeng Motor Corp, Honda, Nissan, General Motor, and the French car manufacturer Groupe PSA.
Last year, China's GDP grew by 6.1%, the lowest in 29 years. With the outbreak of the coronavirus, the Chinese economy is certainly falling to its lowest level in the last three decades. Especially if the virus named Covid-19 to spread outside the Wuhan region, which it has, as a matter of fact.
With this situation, the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) cut China's economic growth to 5.4% by 2020. This figure is lower than the previous prediction of 5.9%. But the impact on GDP will be even greater if the outbreak is not handled correctly. The same thing was done by a number of institutions that lowered the projected growth of the Chinese economy this year.
The Chinese government also does not argue if the corona outbreak can reduce economic growth between 0.2% – 1%. This was said by Zeng Gang, Deputy Chair of the Institute for Finance and National Development, as quoted by Reuters. This estimate refers to the impact of the SARS outbreak that occurred in 2003. "The impact of this epidemic on the economy in the first quarter, is likely to be comparable (with SARS)," said Zeng Gang.
The Declining of Global Economy
As the country with the second largest economy, the decline of the Chinese economy will have an impact on the global economy in 2020. This can be seen from the projections made by a number of institutions. EIU lowered its global economic growth target from 2.3% to 2.2%. While the World Bank estimates economic growth of 2,4%, down from the previous estimate of 2.5%.
Moody's Analytics research institute in the report "Coronavirus: The Global Economic Threat" (2020) projects, China's economic growth in the first quarter of 2020 eroded up to 2 %. Meanwhile, every 1% decrease in the country's GDP will reduce the world economy by 0.4%.
According to the report, the Asian region would be the most disadvantaged. The short-term impact has also been seen in the tourism sector. A number of countries that have temporarily suspended flights and shipping to and from China have recorded a decline in tourist arrivals, such as Thailand, Japan and Vietnam. In Macau, quoting Bloomberg, the number even dropped to 83% during the Chinese New Year holiday.
Data from the China Outbound Tourism Research Institute said 173 million Chinese tourists traveled abroad in the period from October 2018 to September 2019. The World Tourism Organization also said that they spent the most money on their voyages, adding up to US $ 277 billion in 2018.
While from the trade sector, China is the largest exporting country. In 2018, the value of Chinese exports will reach US $2.5 trillion. While in terms of imports, the country became the second largest buyer after the United States. The reduced economic activity has affected supplier countries such as South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and other Asian countries.
In addition, since early 2000, China has been intensively investing its capital in other countries. The funds are invested in a number of infrastructure and manufacturing projects, especially in the Asian region such as Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia. During 2005-2019, the total investment made by China in Asia reached US $ 527.2 billion.
With China's economic cake getting bigger and its global connections, making every turmoil in the country have an impact on other countries. This situation happened in 2003, when China faced an outbreak of SARS. At that time, the outbreak lasted around nine months. In the calculation of the Brookings Institution, China's GDP fell by 1.1% over the year.
However, at that time the Chinese economy had not been very influential globally. Its GDP portion is only 4% of the world total. Then tourists traveling abroad were only 20 million. Now with GDP reaching US $ 13.6 trillion or 16 percent of total world GDP in 2018, the impact of coronavirus will certainly exceed SARS. Not only the number of victims killed, but also the impact on the global economy will be more significant.

On Workers' Memorial Day, citizens across the globe pause to commemorate those who lost their lives while on the job.
April 28 marks the 25th anniversary of Workers' Memorial Day in the United States. This worldwide day of reflection was designated to honor the workers who died of occupational injuries or illnesses.
In 2011, nearly 4,000 employees suffered fatal workplace injuries. Up until 3 years ago, these fatalities were improving, but have since remained flat, according to the National Safety Council. Additionally, an estimated 53,000 illness fatalities occur each year from exposure to occupational health hazards.
In an effort to put a human face on workplace fatalities, the USMWF Workers' Memorial Day site includes a slideshow picturing workers who died on the job. Currently, the slideshow displays 125 photos of workers, including their names and causes of death. Timothy Miller, age 40, was electrocuted. Steven Michael Swain, age 27, was killed in a workplace explosion. Jin Chen, age 22, fell from a roof. These are just a few of the real workers who lost their lives at work.
Hold a candlelight vigil, memorial service of moment of silence to remember those who died on the job and to highlight any possible safety concerns in your community.
Conduct workshops to education workers about job safety hazards and how to exercise job safety rights.
Create a memorial at a workplace or in a community where employees have lost their lives on the job.
Hold a public meeting with members of Congress in their home districts; bring injured workers and family members who can talk firsthand about the need for strong workplace safety protections.

KOBE — Kazutoshi Sasayama returned to his office Tuesday to begin a third four-year term as Kobe mayor after beating two challengers in Sunday's mayoral election.
Sasayama, 73, has pledged to make the utmost efforts to improve the lives of residents and to promote a city plan to build a local airport off Kobe Port. The opening of the airport is scheduled for 2004.
"This election taught me that there are some residents who really need support to restore their livelihoods," he said. "The city has to provide help to solve various problems that they have." Sasayama narrowly won re-election in the mayoral race, the first since the Great Hanshin Earthquake, getting 270,000 votes against the 225,000 ballots cast for Kazuo Onishi, the closest of the two other other candidates.
Onishi, who criticized Sasayama's policies during the campaign, insisted that the airport plan be suspended and that residents be compensated for quake damage to their properties. In a news conference Tuesday, Sasayama said the city will take effective measures to support about 18,000 households that are still living in temporary accommodation units so it is easier for them to make the move to permanent homes.


DONALD TUSK sparked outrage by claiming yesterday there is a 'special place in hell' for Brexiteers.
The European Council president warned he was preparing for a 'fiasco' as he insisted Britain's withdrawal deal could not be renegotiated.
He also criticised the efforts of the UK's pro-EU campaigners, claiming there was 'no political force and no effective leadership for Remain' with only 50 days to go until Brexit.
He said there was no chance of reversing the decision to leave as long as both Theresa May and the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn continued to take a 'pro-Brexit stance'. The leader of the Commons, Andrea Leadsom, called on Mr Tusk to apologise over the 'spiteful' hell comment.
Mr Tusk's comments in Brussels came as Theresa May prepared to fly there for crucial talks today.
She hopes to reopen negotiations over the withdrawal agreement after MPs voted that the unpopular Irish backstop needs to be replaced.
Critics say the contingency plan could trap the UK in a customs union with the EU indefinitely and would divide Northern Ireland from the rest of the UK. But Mr Tusk said it was needed to guarantee that there would be no return to a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic — one of the conditions of the Good Friday peace agreement.
'We will not gamble with peace or put a sell-by date on reconciliation and this is why we insist on the backstop,' he said.
The prime minister is expected to put forward plans for using technology to avoid the need for physical customs checks at the border.
Yesterday, Mrs May met party leaders in Northern Ireland, where Sinn Fein warned her it would demand an Irish reunification referendum if there was a hard Brexit. 'The British strategy of running down the clock and playing a game of chicken with Ireland and Irish interests is profoundly unacceptable,' said leader Mary Lou McDonald.
Meanwhile, ex-Brexit secretary David Davis said he 'wouldn't worry' if withdrawal was delayed by three weeks.
The president of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker (pictured with Mr Varadkar) insisted the backstop had to stay but distanced himself from Mr Tusk's remarks.
'I believe in heaven and I have never seen hell,' he added. 'Apart from doing my job here.' The EU parliament's Brexit co-ordinator Guy Verhofstadt joked that not even 'Lucifer' would welcome the Leavers in case they divided hell.

The Politics of Psychosis: Painted-on Genes
Scientology has made a name for itself by publicizing the history of biological psychiatry but they did not invent that history. It has been documented by a variety of people independent of L. Ron Hubbard's devotees. Biological psychiatry differs from more rigorous forms of psychiatric practice in its focus on biochemical therapy to an almost exclusive degree. It subscribes to a paradigm of psychosis that is grounded in the genetic make-up of the individual with little or no concern for environmental factors.
The notion that degraded mental states derive from genetic factors predates the introduction of major tranquilizers as the primary form of therapy for patients who are considered psychotic. The genetic paradigm shows up in the writing of physicians who espoused the sterilization of mental patients in order to prevent them from breeding psychotic children. It ultimately derives from the use of animal husbandry to breed animals with specific personality traits. If animals can be bred to be either docile or aggressive, these must be hereditary traits. Such logic deliberately ignores techniques that breeders use to train animals to behave pleasingly. A pit bull can be brought up to be either a house pet or a competitive fighter.
Jay Joseph has published a review of biological psychiatric research that calls into question the conclusions of those studies. He points out a variety of mistakes that researchers made, either by omission or commission, to conclude that psychological complaints have a genetic foundation. The greatest of these flaws is the deliberate dismissal of possible environmental factors. It could be considered a form of willful ignorance.
Biological psychiatry is a continuation of the eugenic school by another name. Although it does not sterilize the people it sees as having "bad" genes, it treats them in a way that reduces their capacity for parenthood. There are cases of children of people stigmatized with a psychiatric label being defrauded of their rights to contact with their stigmatized parent. This is the kind of environmental factor that could result in driving children crazy.
One of our students observed that national socialism was defeated in Germany but it has yet to be defeated in the US. How do you feel about the legal recognition of a "medical" practice that has its roots in eugenic thinking?

My 9/11 Story

Street art and graffitti: is it really a crime and an eyesore or can it be real art?
Russell Murphy (26) and Alexis Creque (28) are led away from central booking in handcuffs
It's pretty rare when we can talk about the politics of art in the community, but I thought this would be an interesting fit. In New York City, a recent local story has reignited a new debate about graffiti as either art or vandalism. Some background: Mo Gelber is a photographer who was looking for a perfect shot to enter into film director Ron Howard's photography contest Project Imaginat10n, which will feature ten winners in a short film. Mr. Gelber was in front of Manhattan's criminal court when he saw a couple being escorted by two police officers and captured his photo (which he entitled The Last Kiss. The fly in the ointment? In order to submit the photograph for the conest, Canon (one of the sponsors) required signed releases from anyone in the photograph, and that meant tracking down everyone in the photograph, and do that within a few days to meet a deadline. Now legally you don't need releases for anyone in a street photograph, but the contest sponsors required it.
[More behind here]
Through social media, the woman in the photograph came forward (she was released because it's first arrest) but she wouldn't name her BF because he was being held in jail. To shorten this story, Mr. Murphy was released, but faces multiple charges as he was identified as the tagger "CASH4." If you live in or travel to Bushwich, LES, or ride the subway on J/M/Z line, chances are you've seen his stuff (I've noticed it before). I'm just wondering what does the community at large think about this issue. Do you even notice street art?
CASH4 tag on the left in this photo.
Because he's facing multiple charges with some serious fines and jail time, Mr. Murphy's lawyer refused to allow her client to sign the release for the photography contest, saying it could haunt him the rest of his life.
I was more surprised at the REACTION to this story. A lot of folks hope he's severely punished because this type of vandalism costs building owners millions a year. On the other side, you have people saying "this is real art, and lets not get crazy here, this is a non-violent crime (IF it's a real crime anyway)." New York along with several other cities in the early 1990s made a concerted effort to rid themselves of "tag-art" on the transportation systems and even developed anti-graffiti police task forces, citing it as quality of life issue.
New York subway car from the 1970s
I certainly don't want to see subway cars that look like the photograph above, and if someone vandalized the exterior of my building, I wouldn't like it too much. There are beautiful examples of street art though, such as the work of Gabriel Specter (cf illustration below), who typically makes anti-gentrification pieces in areas slowly being developed by "hipsters," and driving out minority residents. I make a distinction between what Mr. Specter does versus the crude designs of Mr. Murphy and while I know that's not very consistent, I wished there could be some happy medium between these choices. It's interesting to note: Mr. Specter has NEVER been arrested or charged.

In September 2015, a team of scientists announced that they had found a new human species. Their find included 1,550 fossils from at least 15 individuals with a mysterious combination of primitive and modern physical features. The team, led by Lee Berger of the University of Witwatersrand, named the new species Homo naledi, after the cave system in South Africa where they found the remains.
Within a few days, anthropology professor Megan McCullen brought a jawbone from Homo naledi into her introductory archaeology class at Alma College in Alma, Michigan. It wasn't the original fossil, of course, but a 3-D printed model.
Berger and his team have published downloadable 3-D scans of 90 of the fossils on the online database MorphoSource. The 3-D scans provide blueprints for anyone to recreate their own Homo naledi fossils and get their hands on a piece of evolutionary history.
A colleague of McCullen's made a model of one of the jawbone specimens with the college's 3-D printer. The 3-D printing process deposits extremely thin layers of plastic onto one another to build items according to a template.
McCullen took the model, plus several hominin and chimp jawbone casts from the anthropology department's collection, to her introductory archaeology class. Her students passed around the jawbone and compared its characteristics to the other specimens.
The manufacturing process took six hours for the jawbone, McCullen says, but the blue plastic that went into the model (making it look "like a Smurf") only cost about $5.
At that price, even anthropology departments without big budgets can afford to print several Homo naledi fossil models.
"It really democratizes our ability to teach students about human evolution," says Kristina Killgrove, an anthropologist at the University of West Florida in Pensacola. Killgrove printed Homo naledi finger bones, a femur fragment, lower and upper jaw pieces, and a piece of a skull to show off in an upper level anthropology class after the publication.
When Killgrove previously bought an equivalent amount of hominin fossil casts, they cost about $1,000.
Having access to new Homo naledi models levels the playing field for students at universities that can't buy many expensive fossil casts, Killgrove says.
Without models, students analyze data tables of bone measurements to compare fossils from different species, says Adam Van Arsdale, an anthropologist at Wellesley College. He brought Homo naledi models to his introductory human evolution class and planned to assign his students a research project centered around the 3-D scans.
When students examine models themselves, they also get to act more like scientists in the field.
In her archaeology class, McCullen used Homo naledi as a case study to teach her students the process of scientific inquiry.
The benefits of the published 3-D scans aren't limited to university professors and students — anyone can download the Homo naledi renderings.
This can really enhance the learning experience in middle schools and high schools where teachers might not otherwise have the resources to teach with fossil models, says John Hawks, an anthropologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and core scientist on the team that discovered Homo naledi.
Of course, amateur anthropologists need access to a 3-D printer to make their own models. 3-D printers can cost thousands of dollars, but people without their own printers can print individual pieces at some UPS stores and other printing centers.
Before the Homo naledi publication, if an average person wanted to see early human fossil data, they could only read open access papers and visit museums with fossil casts on display, Van Arsdale says. Now, that's changed.

About the Stop Land Grabs Campaign
We are a coalition of environmental organizations, human rights organizations, farmers organizations, unions, and individual university professors. We are demanding that financial companies GET OUT of forests and farmland. Pensions should not be investing in plantations.
Social, economic, and ecological crises are intensifying due to the expansion of corporate, industrial agribusiness. Brazilian forests are being razed and burned to make way for cattle ranching and soybean plantations. Family farmers in the United States are on the verge of disappearing in the midst of the biggest farm crisis in a generation while mammoth corporations make even more profit, and indigenous people, people of color, and women are facing more and more difficult holding onto land and feeding their families. Hunger, poverty, and diet-related disease are increasing around the world, reaching over 2 billion people.
Meanwhile, pension funds - which are supposed to manage workers' savings in order to provide for the future and which are the largest players in the financial industry with almost $40 trillion in global pensions and almost $30 trillion in the US alone - are putting more and more money into these destructive agribusiness ventures. They are buying farmland at an alarming rate, hoping to profit off its scarcity as the climate and hunger crises worsen, and they are buying stock in other agri-commodity companies, claiming that they are just acting in the interest of their clients, as these companies deforest the rainforest and make climate chaos inevitable.
A New Wave of Land Grabbing
In the aftermath of the financial crises of 2007 and 2008, endowments, pension funds, and other institutional investors started to acquire farmland. In the past decade, millions of acres of land have been bought up, and that number is continuing to grow as new investment companies, from state pension funds to massive hedge funds, consider farmland.
These land grabs are displacing communities across the globe, exacerbating land access issues for Black farmers and new and beginning farmers in the US, devastating ecosystems, and driving the climate crisis. Colleges and universities are major investors through their endowments and pension funds -- and are also places where we have the power to expose and challenge these destructive land grabs.

La Multiface va ser un perifèric llançat a la dècada del 1980 per Romantic Robot UK Ltd per diversos microordinadors. La funció principal de l'aparell era bolcar la memòria de l'ordinador a un dispositiu d'emmagatzematge extern, i va comptar amb un icònic botó vermell que es podria prémer en qualsevol moment, per activar-lo. Com la majoria dels jocs de l'època no tenia una funció per desar, la Multiface permetia als jugadors salvar la seva posició. No obstant això, aquesta característica també permetia als usuaris crear còpies de seguretat o còpies pirata de programari. La violació de drets d'autor es descoratjava, però, va ser possible en models anteriors; en models posteriors es va fer més difícil, exigint que la Multiface sigui present per fer la recàrrega del bolcatge en la memòria.

Meeting with residents in Marie Curie House - 10/12/10
On Friday I visited Marie Curie House to speak to residents about the fire which took place there last Monday.
Residents have told me that they were given 6 days notice that EDF were to carry out works at Marie Curie House on Monday 29th November 2010 and that the electricity would be disconnected. They were told that it would only be reconnected if they were at home between 8.30am - 4.30pm on Monday 29th November 2010 to give EDF access to their property.
I do not believe that this is an appropriate way to treat residents. If work needs to be carried out which involves the electricity being disconnected it should either be re-connected automatically - or it should be re-connected at a time which suits residents. Residents should not be expected to wait at home all day.
Many residents have complained to me about the inconvenience. Some have also complained that 6 days was not enough notice for them to make arrangements to take time off work. Others tell me that they did not have their electricity re-connected before it was dark, and were left with no lights. This is very concerning.
I am told that the fire was started by a candle which the tenant had lit as there was no electricity and they could not see. Marie Curie House is the neighbouring identical block to Lakanal House, in which six people tragically died when a fire spread in July 2009. Many of the residents in Marie Curie House saw the Lakanal fire and they watched from their balconies as the bodies were carried out. Residents in Marie Curie were understandably very frightened by the fire in their own block yesterday which caused them to be evacuated from their homes for several hours.
I have written to EDF to request that residents are compensated by way of a goodwill payment for the inconvenience caused by having to remain home on Monday, and being left in darkness. I have asked for a full report and an undertaking that EDF will review the way that works are carried out in future.

Q: DynamoDB local db limits - use for initial beta-go-live given Dynamo's pricing, the thought came to mind to use DynamoDB Local DB on an EC2 instance for the go-live of our startup SaaS solution.   I've been trying to find like a data sheet for the local db, specifying limits as to # of tables, or records, or general size of the db file.   Possibly, we could even run a few local db instances on dedicated EC2 servers as we know at login what user needs to be connected to what db.
Does anybody have any information on the local db limits or on this approach?  Also, anybody knows of any legal/licensing issues with using dynamo-local in that way?

A: Every item in DynamoDB Local will end up as a row in the SQLite database file. So the limits are based on SQLite's limitations.
Maximum Number Of Rows In A Table = 2^64 but the database file limit will likely be reached first (140 terabytes).
Note: because of the above, the number of items you can store in DynamoDB Local will be smaller with the preview version of local with Streams support. This is because to support Streams the update records for items are also stored. E.g. if you are only doing inserts of these items then the item will effectively be stored twice: once in a table containing item data and once in a table containing the INSERT UpdateRecord data for that item (more records will also be generated if the item is being updated over time).
Be aware that DynamoDB Local was not designed for the same performance, availability, and durability as the production service.


The swimming pool is original to the gar- den; the arbor and giant pots are new.
A circle at the front entry is planted with the colorful annuals that owner Ginny Meisenbach loves.
Pennsylvania bluestone walls are mortared in back for longevity and sturdiness, yet they look like classic dry-stack stonework. David Pfeiffer designed the wrought-iron gate; the urn overflows with sedum.
Lizards spout water into a Chinese basin, which overflows into the pond to make a double-layer water feature in the courtyard. If you look closely you can see the sedums and herbs growing on top of the stone walls.
Blue spires of Russian sage, purple-flowered rosemary and sprawling catmint fill out the raised-bed rose garden below the terraces.
• Geranium 'Ann Folkard,' magenta flowers and sprawling golden foliage.
• Lavandula 'Fred Boutin,' an especially fragrant lavender with silvery foliage.
• Heucheras with dark purple leaves to contrast with the mostly white, pink and peach roses.
• Russian sage (Perovskia atriplicifolia), a narrow, hazy, blue-blooming perennial.
• Catmint (Nepeta faassenii 'Dropmore'), blue flowers all summer.
• Golden marjoram (Origanum vulgare 'Aureum'), creeping golden groundcover.
To emphasize his love and knowledge of plants, David Pfeiffer calls himself a garden architect rather than a landscape architect. Fairly or not, we often think of landscape architects as concentrating on hardscape and drainage to the exclusion of the living, growing layer of the garden. But Pfeiffer's design for Ginny and John Meisenbach's Bellevue property is as flowery and fragrant as it is elegant.
Pfeiffer began his update of the quarter-century-old garden by tearing up the concrete driveway and replacing it with gravel. Now the approach to the home is casual and crunchy, emphasizing the wooded, naturalistic feel of the place. The plan to replace all that impervious surface was in keeping with the Meisenbachs' decision to renovate, rather than tear down, their 1970s home to avoid the waste of demolition.
While the inside remodel was going on, Pfeiffer was working outside to extend the home's architecture out into the garden. Near the home's entry, a hefty arbor wrapped in honeysuckle mingles with hemlocks and cedar as backdrop to a bright, frilly circle of flowers. The colorful blooms hint at the delights just inside the garden gate — also designed by Pfeiffer — of powder-coated wrought iron. This filigreed portal gives a feminine touch to the Pennsylvania fieldstone walls enclosing the little courtyard.
"It's so welcoming to hear water as you come into a garden; it's almost as welcoming as scent," says Pfeiffer of the fountain you can hear, but not see, until you step into the courtyard. This little stone-floored enclave just outside her kitchen window is Ginny's favorite part of the garden. Water spurts from the mouths of three lizard-shaped spouts into an antique Chinese stone watering trough. This engaging water scene has competition for the most charming feature in the courtyard: The tops of the stone walls are planted with sedum, herbs, thyme and rosemary. Once established, these drought-tolerant plants flourish without irrigation, tempting anyone coming into the courtyard to sniff, touch and pick from the nearly nose-high garden.
Beyond the entry courtyard, the garden opens to terraces, swimming pool and a wide-open view of Lake Washington and the Seattle skyline. "Ginny likes the garden colorful and filled with annuals," says Pfeiffer of the overflowing bouquet-like containers on the terraces. Generously scaled boxes hold bay trees pruned into standards, fluffed out with flowers in shades of blue, purple, chartreuse and orange. Pfeiffer and Meisenbach give full credit to gardener Kevin Baker, who maintains this complicated garden and plants all the seasonal color.
Broad steps lead down the hillside to an area that used to be nothing but dull shrubbery and dog lawn despite its full-on water view. Inspired by Ginny's love of roses, Pfeiffer pumped up the garden's romanticism on this lower level. Now you can look down from the terraces onto billowing roses anchored with boxwood cones. All the roses are own-root, supremely fragrant, in shades of white through salmon. No rose ghetto here — perennials mingle beneath the shrubs, and cherry tomatoes cascade from stone planters.
And just in case the old-fashioned roses aren't quite intoxicating enough, Pfeiffer added white Casa Blanca lilies. "I tried to create something that would draw Ginny down into the garden," says Pfeiffer, understating the allure of the wild rose garden at the heart of the Meisenbachs' renovated property.

Trade ministers from 11 Asia-Pacific countries signed a major free trade deal in the Chilean capital on Thursday afternoon, that slashes tariffs and is seen as a challenge to Trump's growing protectionist policies.
The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), was signed by Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, Japan, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam.
The deal, originally known as the TPP-11, was devised by the US in 2016 to counter China's growing dominance in the Pacific region, but Trump pulled out shortly after taking office.
The deal was revived under a new name in January, and signatories went ahead with the signing as Trump finalised a decision to impose trade tariffs on steel and aluminium imports into the country.
The CPTPP's 11 member states make up 13 % of the world economy, with a combined GDP totalling $10 trillion. With America on board, the signatories would have accounted for a total of 40% of the global economy.
President Trump signed a deal to impose steep trade tariffs on US steel and aluminium imports in a ceremony on Thursday, drawing a backlash from major US trading partners.
According to the deal, import tariffs of 25% on steel and 10% on aluminium will go into effect in 15 days in a move Trump says will rehabilitate US industries devastated by "unfair trade".
Trump said that Canada, the largest supplier of steel and aluminium to the US, and Mexico are exempt from the duties, while negotiations over another trade deal, the North America Free Trade Agreement (Nafta) are still underway.
China described the new measures as a "serious attack" on free trade, while their steel and metals associations demanded retaliation.
French minister of economy Bruno Le Maire denounced the tariffs, saying there's "only losers" in a trade war.
Canada welcomes their exemption but said they would still pressure the US to reconsider the policy.
The EU is also pushing for exemption from the tariffs, with EU trade commissioner Cecilia Malmstroem tweeting that, the EU should excluded from the trafifs as they are a close ally of the US.
Earlier this week the EU published a list of US goods they will tax if Trump imposes tariffs.
On tonight's announcement – the EU is a close ally of the US and we continue to be of the view that the EU should be excluded from these measures. I will seek more clarity on this issue in the days to come. Looking forward to meeting USTR Lighthizer in Brussels on Sat to discuss.

The running bowline is a knot consisting of a bowline looped around its own standing end to create a noose.

The running bowline is strong and secure. It slides easily and can be undone just as simply.

Tying
Tie a bowline in the end of a line with a small loop, and by appearance one then passes the standing part through the loop to form the noose. However, this method of forming the noose is practicable only for a short piece of line.  Alternatively, one can tie the bowline tied directly around the standing part or, having tied the bowline first, one would form a bight in the standing part and pull it through the loop of the bowline.

Rutgers is (still) the zebra mussel of the Big Ten
Time passes and one thing remains the same: Rutgers sucks.
By GoAUpher@GoAUpher Oct 18, 2019, 6:05am CDT
Share All sharing options for: Rutgers is (still) the zebra mussel of the Big Ten
Rutgers attaches itself to the B1G.
GoAUpher note: I posted the following article 3 years ago to the day. I have not bothered to update it in any way because there is no need. Sure, the embedded tweet below are from the 2016 season. The fact is, it doesn't matter because any new tweets I could embed would feature similar tales of futility. Rutgers is bad. Unbelievably bad. Possibly historically bad. AGAIN.
Thanks to their horrid play, they need a new coach. Which means I can say with the same certainty as a claim that the sun will always rise in the east, that once Rutgers hires Greg Schiano to lead them after this season we'll get to hear all about how they're a sleeping giant. You might be wondering why I'm so sure this will happen. It's because the article I'm reposting was written during Chris Ash's first season at Rutgers. New coach smell is a hell of a drug and Rutgers fans may have an unlimited supply.
Oh goody. Can't wait. So pumped for this. Maybe this time they'll actually succeed at cutting off our ad revenue. /sighs
It's finally that time. The time I have dreaded for months. The moment which I would only talk about in hushed tones with the other writers of TDG on our Slack chats. I tried to pretend it wasn't coming, tried to put off the inevitable. But the inevitable is here and it's time to face it.
RUTGERS. WEEK. IS. HERE.
You are probably confused. I can already hear your questions.
"Why would you dread Rutgers week?"
"Rutgers is terrible, this is a great week!"
"What is this Rutgers you speak of?"
"I thought it was pronounced Buttgers?"
I dreaded this week for one simple reason. Rutgers fans.
Rutgers fans are the zebra mussels of the B1G. Just like zebra mussels, Rutgers fans are not native to the Big Ten. They are an invasive species and are extremely painful to run into, especially when they are blathering on about everyone in the Big Ten fearing what they'll soon become.
Speaking of which...
The bottom line is that we're a big fat target. Do you think that Minnesota gets this kind of grief? Purdue? Northwestern?
No, because they don't with confidence say that we're the next great football dynasty. When you have ambitions like ours, when you have resources like ours, when you have a bright future like ours, people love to knock you down.
Oh good, I can see where this is going.
Still, you don't deserve this Rutgers fans, Rutgers players, and Rutgers coaches. You don't deserve this level of vitriol after playing the hardest schedule in the nation during a rebuilding year after losing your most dynamic playmaker while migrating schemes on both sides of the ball and breaking in a new staff after enduring years of scandals and suspensions.
NOTE: I looked at their schedule. It's essentially the same as Minnesota's schedule in 2015. Do you know what Minnesota didn't do? Minnesota didn't do this.

But I'm sure this post will get better.
The Big Ten conference was supposed to be one of collegial sportsmanship; a place where gentleman and gentlewomen compete "The Right Way" and pair excellent academic achievement with cordial gamesmanship. This is not the Big Ten that we've seen the past few weeks and I know that comes as a disappointment of many of us.
No better way to show you don't understand the conference you've joined than to pretend this is some new insult. Where do they think Harbaugh learned how to do this? Does no one in New Jersey know how to Google The Ten Year War?
Don't head to the comments to lament our new kinship with these folks yet Gopher fans because we haven't gotten to the whoppers yet.
Remember these days, Rutgers fans, because they aren't going to last forever.
In the macro view, our rise to prominence is an inevitability.
Look to the arc of Rutgers football history. From the early days of the sport, to small school ball, to the Big East to the Big Ten, our march has big one of steady progress.
No school has access to the NYC media empire like we do. No Power 5 school has a talent rich state to themselves. No schools at any level can tap into the passion and depth of New Jersey football fans like Rutgers can.
Don't let the haters get you down. The fact of the matter is that the reason why publications write dig articles about Rutgers is that it drives impressions; it makes noise. Yes, I see the metrics on our site. The big hitters the past few days have been Rutgers hate pieces.
What does that say about our position in the league? Does it say that we're irrelevant? Does it say that we're an afterthought? Does it say that we don't belong?
No, it proves why Rutgers is a cornerstone of the Big Ten now and in the future.
/pauses while TDG's readers spit water on their keyboards
/waits for the laughter to subside
/keeps waiting

I'm not even going to bother. Every non Rutgers fan who read that knows why it's ridiculous. This is what you're in for now. This is what Delany has brought us in return for Scrooge McDuck swimming pools.
Get ready everyone. Welcome to Invasive Species Rutgers Week.

GRAND RAPIDS -- After a penalty-filled, extra-long Game 3 and playing in back-to-back playoff games, it was only natural that the Grand Rapids Griffins and Chicago Wolves would have a bit of a letdown in Game 4.
Not a lot happened for either team in the first period, which was scoreless.

DETROIT -- When new Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman looked out at the crowd of reporters and Wings employees Friday afternoon, he spotted some familiar faces.
Several of Yzerman's former teammates, a few of whom he will be working with in hockey operations, were present as the Wings introduced Yzerman as their new executive vice president and general manager.
DETROIT -- It was somehow fitting that on the day the Detroit Red Wings announced that Steve Yzerman was returning home, the date was April 19, 2019.
When Yzerman stepped away from the daily grind of his general manager duties with the Tampa Bay Lightning to serve as senior advisor to new general manager Julien BriseBois, many people speculated and many Wings fans hoped that it meant No. 19 would come back to Detroit.
DETROIT - Detroit Red Wings Governor, President and CEO Christopher Ilitch today announced that Steve Yzerman has been named Executive Vice President and General Manager responsible for all hockey operations and that Ken Holland has been promoted to Senior Vice President and will serve as a senior advisor to hockey operations.
DETROIT -- For Detroit Red Wings fans who already show their support with stickers and flags on their cars, there is now something new.
Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson announced Tuesday that new fundraising license plates are now available for the Red Wings, Tigers, Pistons and Lions.
DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings today agreed to terms with goaltender Filip Larsson on a three-year entry-level contract. The contract will begin with the 2019-20 season.
When it comes to finding ways to improve a hockey club, NHL general managers will leave no stone unturned.
Every season, each team deploys a staff of scouts to scour hockey rinks across North America and Europe looking for the next piece of the puzzle that will help them win hockey games and, ultimately, championships.
The Detroit Red Wings will be in a familiar position at the NHL Entry Draft this summer.
The NHL moved up the draft lottery to before the Stanley Cup playoffs started, holding the event in Toronto Tuesday night.

District attorney saw 'defects' in Cosby accuser's 2005 case
Man who declined in 2005 to prosecute Bill Cosby for sexual assault testifies in court

A former Pennsylvania district attorney who declined in 2005 to prosecute Bill Cosby for sexual assault testified on Tuesday he had concerns about the credibility of the woman who has accused the now-disgraced comedian of drugging and raping her.
Former Montgomery County district attorney Bruce Castor said Andrea Constand's credibility as a witness could have been undermined a decade ago because she waited a year to file her criminal complaint against Cosby and had hired a lawyer to explore a civil lawsuit.
"I decided that because of defects in the case, the case could not be won and that I was going to make a decision that we would not prosecute Mr Cosby," Mr Castor said during a hearing in a suburban Philadelphia court, where Cosby faces new charges in the case.
"Making Mr Cosby pay money to Ms Constand was the best I would be able to set the state for because a prosecution was not viable and never would be."
Cosby's attorneys contend that an agreement with the former district attorney protected the entertainer from prosecution.
More than 50 women have accused Cosby (78), of drugging and sexually assaulting them, but Constand's case is the only one to result in criminal charges. The wave of allegations has cost Cosby, who made a long career on family-friendly comedy, his status as one of the United States' most-admired entertainers.
Cosby has repeatedly denied wrongdoing. Many of the cases date to the 1960s and 1970s, making them ineligible for criminal prosecution, although some of his alleged victims also have filed a series of civil lawsuits claiming Cosby defamed them by calling them liars.
In his testimony, Castor said his decision not to prosecute Cosby prevented the entertainer from invoking his constitutional right against self-incrimination when he gave a deposition for a civil suit against Constand, a former women's basketball team manager at his alma mater, Temple University.
A judge last year unsealed that testimony, in which Cosby acknowledged giving Benadryl, an anti-allergy medication, to Constand in 2004 but portrayed the encounter as consensual. The Montgomery County District Attorney's office charged Cosby in connection with that incident in late December, days before the statute of limitations was to expire. Constand, now 44, said Cosby plied her with drugs and alcohol before sexually assaulting her. Dressed in a dark brown suit, walking with a cane and flanked by attorneys and what appeared to be a security guard,
Cosby sat stonily during Tuesday's proceeding and did not speak.
Cosby's lawyers have asked common pleas court judge Steven O'Neill to dismiss the case, citing the supposed agreement reached in 2005 with Castor.

James Corden Confesses To Stealing A Candle From Mariah Carey's House
By Ed Biggs in Lifestyle / Showbiz on 22 March 2018

James Corden Mariah Carey
Corden was playing 'Spill Your Guts Or Fill Your Guts' with guest John Boyega and Drew Barrymore on 'The Late Late Show' this week.
James Corden has revealed that he once stole a candle from Mariah Carey's house, after the singer kept him waiting for more than three hours to film an interview.
The 39 year old British 'Late Late Show' host was joined by guests John Boyega and Drew Barrymore on Wednesday night's edition of the show, and they played the now-infamous truth-or-dare game 'Spill Your Guts Or Fill Your Guts'. The segment, as ever, requires the guest to either answer a revealing personal or professional question, or eat/drink some disgusting mystery item.
Deciding to turn the tables on the host, Star Wars actor Boyega asked Corden: "Have you ever stolen anything, if so, from where?"
James Corden once stole a candle from Mariah Carey
Faced with the prospect of having to eat a 1000-year old egg (yes, really) Corden laughed as he recalled an incident that happened at Mariah Carey's house some years ago.

"This is completely true and I've never told anybody this," he said, recalling when he filmed with the 47 year old diva. "I once stole a candle from Mariah Carey's house. I'll tell you why though, these candles they say Mariah Carey and they have a butterfly on them.
"We had gone to film this Christmas Carpool Karaoke and I had gone to her house to film it from there, we were supposed to film at three and I was told get there at four because they'll probably be ready. I waited just in her living room until about six-thirty just on my own and I thought well, I'm gonna take this candle for my time. And I still have it today. Sorry Mariah, you have loads!"
Having spent the last three years conquering America with his late night chat show slot, with popular segments like Carpool Karaoke, Corden has now raised his profile in his native Britain with the lead role in Peter Rabbit, the animated re-make of the classic Beatrix Potter tale.

Piney Gir
Band Pop Singer/Songwriter
Share Piney Gir's EPK!
"Monocle Magazine"
Everybody knows it's uncool to smile in rock, but who gives? This is pop with guitars, anyway (and she's from Kansas City). So rarely does an album-perfect 40 minutes of dazzling tunefulness, gleeful, wide-horizon jangly-guitar road-tripping roll around, that you have to smile about it. Strap yourself in behind a big chrome bumper and bring nothing waterproof whatsoever. - Pamela Mullinger
"Uncut Magazine"
Sweet '60s pop from Kansas chameleon
On previous releases, Kansas-born, London-based songwriter Angela Penhaligon (aka Piney Gir) has explored country music with mixed results, having started out doing electro-dance. You might, then, doubt the sincerity of her take on sweet, 1960s-influenced girl pop, but such scepticism would be challenged by the opening 'Outta Sight" - a straightforward, finger-clicking paean to instant love. There are echoes of Jenny Lewis, or perhaps the Swedish pop of Hello Saferide (notably on "Stay Sweet") but the mix of sass and vulnerability adds a melancholy twang on "It's Our Time" (Alastair McKay) - IPC Media
"Q Magazine"
Long-exiled American takes delightful retro-pop turn.
Kansas-born, London-based Angela Penhaligon, aka Piney Gir, if full of surprises. After off-kilter dabbles with electronica and country she has moved on again, back to a world of jangling guitars and femme-pop innocence of effervescent '60s beat and cut-price Spector-esque melodramatics, complete with clicking castanets. It's a dangerous game that could easily slide into irony-laden pastiche, but playing everything dead straight and lyrically as guileless as ever, even tossing in an odd yodel when the mood takes her, the result is a charming little diversion from the cares of the modern world. (Peter Kane) - Bauer Media Group
"Mojo Magazine"
There's more to London-based Kansas' gir' Angela Penhaligon than her spunky cowgirl image suggests. With at least one yodel and a "yippy-l-yay", there may be more Western Swing here than 99 per cent of albums reviewed this month, but her fifth offering's boosted pop chops and the deeper pockets of her girlish delivery are game-changers. The '60s girl-group leaning on show are more Lesley Gore than Amy Winehouse, fed by surfin' twang and and other upbeat tributaries as Would You Be There borrows The Byrds' 12-string chime, The Gift gets infused with mariachi trumpets and the tear-jerking Oh Lies gives Twinkle a run for her money. Let's Get Silly is an invitation to a barndance but the album's varying emotions and mutations are part of its unexpected strength. (Martin Aston) - Bauer Media Group
"Guardian Newspaper"
Angela Penhaligon, from Kansas, though long settled in London, isn't afraid to swap styles. Her debut album dealt in electronic music, before she formed Piney Gir's Country Roadshow and put her money on twangy guitars. Her fifth album, by contrast, takes its cues from mid-60s pop, with a hint of new wave. The opening pair of Outta Sight and Here's Looking at You are spritely and brisk, guitars fizzing and jangling, and uncluttered enough for Gir's clean, true voice to mix sweet and tart. For five songs, in fact, Geronimo! promises to be a retro delight. Then, sadly, it fades: not catastrophically, but the focus dissipates, the melodies weaken, the energy lessens. The Gift, River Song and Let's Get Silly return to an arch version of country, but the highlight of the second half comes with It's Our Time, a song that seems torn from the poppier run at the start of the record. - Guardian Media Group

Piney Gir was born in a thunderstorm in the middle of May in Kansas City, Kansas. It was tornado season, the sky was green and angry; in a bath of blood out she popped.
Piney grew up in isolation in the American Midwest, this isolation was reinforced by her strict religious upbringing. She went to a special Christian school (no Darwin, no sex education) and attended church 4-5 times a week; no sinful TV, no secular music… this left a lot to young Piney's imagination which flourished to fill in all the gaps.
One gift the church did give Piney was musical training, the Pentecostal charismatic Christians knew how to worship and they sang, a lot! There was speaking in tongues,
dancing and fainting, church was never really boring, and the early choir days may have given Piney her first taste of drama in performance. She was always given the solos and she became very adept at vocal harmonies which were a firm foundation for what was to come.
In 1989 everything changed as her father went to Seattle to start up a prison ministry and Piney's mom kept her in Kansas where she was suddenly sent to a normal, non-Christian, junior high and was exposed to music, lots of music… new music with lyrics that Piney would listen to, convinced that in doing so she was sealing her fate in hell. It was culture shock, terribly naughty, but she loved it and channelled her rebel within.
Playing piano from the age of 4, Piney wrote her first song at 9 years old; she then took up the drums at 10 years old and kept writing songs in her bedroom. She went on to Uni to study percussion, but her shabby, ghetto apartment was robbed and they took her drums. So she changed her major to voice "They can't steal your voice" she reckoned. However, Piney never had the voice for Verdi and came to London to work in a cocktail bar and figure things out.
She joined her first band, a synth pop duo (Vic Twenty) who released a single on Mute an toured Europe with Erasure. She saw the world and realised the road was in her blood, music was her sense of purpose and so she released her debut album Peakahokahoo on Truck Records in 2004. She was then the founder; singer and guitar player of all-girl, artrock, cult-classic group The Schla La Las. Alongside that, she released Hold Yer Horses, the first Country Roadshow album in 2006 and then released her 3rd album (another solo album) The Yearling on Hotel Records in 2009. She came back with a vengeance with the Country Roadshow on Damaged Goods in 2010 for her 4th album Jesus Wept which was critically acclaimed… and now she's bringing you Geronimo! from the starry hills of Hollywood.
Why Hollywood? Piney wanted to get out of the familiar London routine and go to a studio far away in the land of dreams to work with rock ?n' roll producer Rob Campanella (from the Brian Jonestown Massacre) and a few special guests too, from Brian Wilson's band to the Beatles' brass section. It's a star studded album saturated with pure sunshine and golden pop nuggets to make your heart sing.
