Tesco Trowbridge goes solar
Article: Dec 16, 2019
The supermarket has put in a 'prior approval' notice to Wiltshire Council for installation of solar panels on the roof of the County Way store. This type of application doesn't have to go through the full planning process as the assumption is it'll be permitted - the council just has to check it's within the legal requirements.
Plan ap goes in for new sports facilities for Trowbridge
By Trevor Carbin
The application from the town council is for a new sports facility to include a fenced and floodlit 3G Artificial Grass Pitch and a pavilion, with new community coaching and education rooms and a training room/gym for use by football and rugby club users. A new access road and additional parking is also proposed.
Shocking cuts to local services revealed
By Unison
The true scale of almost a decade of savage austerity cuts to local communities across Britain have been revealed in a study by UNISON, which shows the impact of huge reductions in council funding.
A series of freedom of information (FoI) requests across England, Scotland and Wales examined the changes in local services between 2010 and 2019 for several key council services, including youth centres, public toilets, libraries and subsidised bus routes.
WC heading for 4% Council Tax increase
Article: Dec 8, 2019
That's about £40 - £50 for most properties. Councils are normally capped at 2%, but those with social care responsibilities - counties and unitaries - will be allowed an extra 2%.
The likely increase is revealed in a report for December's WC 'cabinet' meeting. (Agenda - see item 7)
Council tax is effectively set by central government these days, with very little scope for local authorities to do other than as specified by Westminster.
Wiltshire Couple Scammed By Criminals Posing As Police Officers
By Wiltshire Police
Wiltshire Police are urging people to be vigilant after a Wiltshire couple were defrauded by scammers posing as police officers.
The couple were contacted over the phone by a man who claimed to be a police officer investigating fraud.
He told them someone had attempted to use their bank card fraudulently and told them to dial 999 to speak to their local force.
But he kept the line open, meaning the victims were still speaking to the fraudsters.
The victims then followed the instructions of the criminals, still believing they were police officers, and withdrew a large amount of cash, which was collected by someone pretending to be a courier.
Det Con Emma Wood, from Swindon CID, said this case showed how convincing and persuasive these types of fraudsters can be.
She said: "The victims in this case genuinely believed they were speaking to police officers and that they needed to cooperate with their requests or they could lose more money to fraudsters or even be arrested for perverting the course of justice.
"This is why it is so important that we remind people of the simple steps they can take to avoid being scammed in this way.
"Please remember, a police officer would never ask you to withdraw money and give it to them.
"They would also be able to meet you face-to-face and show you ID, and would be happy for you to verify their credentials by calling 101.
"If you receive a suspicious phone call then please hang up the phone and report it. Don't feel worried about appearing rude, it is better to be safe than sorry."
She added: "We would also like to urge people to speak to their friends and family members about these types of cases, particularly those who are elderly or vulnerable - we want to protect as many people as possible."
Wiltshire signs up to be part of a Gateway
The North has a Powerhouse, the Midlands has an Engine, and now our bit is to become a Gateway. The Western Gateway will stretch from Gloucestershire to The Gower and from Swansea to Salisbury, taking in Cardiff, Newport, Bristol and Bath.
Wiltshire Council Conservatives have agreed to shell out £20,000 to fund a commissariat to get the scheme going. The government is putting in £400,000. Much more money will be needed in future years, though WC will review the situation next year to see if the Gateway is worth bothering with.
Tightening up on taxi drivers
Wiltshire Council is to sign up to a national database which allows checks to be made on applicants for taxi licenses. At the moment it's possible for someone who has had their license revoked or suspended in one part of the country to move to another local authority area and start again. By joining the register, which is held by the Local Government Association, checks can be made on applicants. Having a record of misdemeanor elsewhere wouldn't necessarily prevent someone from being given a license in Wiltshire, but it would weigh heavily against them.
Trowbridge Lambrok by-election result
Article: Nov 29, 2019
In the election for Wiltshire Council Jo Trigg, Lib Dem, got 622 votes whilst the Tory got 455. This is a Lib Dem gain from Con so good news for Trowbridge and Wiltshire!
£75 million funding for road scheme in Chippenham
Article: Nov 5, 2019
By WC (edited)
Wiltshire Council has been allocated £75 million from the Government's Housing Infrastructure Fund (HIF) to support the growth of Chippenham.
This will pay for a new road to the east and south of Chippenham, linking the A350 at the northern and southern ends of the town, as well as improvement works at J17 on the M4.
Salisbury Park and Ride charges return in full
Wiltshire Council's Conservative administration has slapped charges back onto the park and ride service in Salisbury. This is because they think the support for the city following Novichok is no longer needed.
So it's back to the usual price of £3 return per person at the five park and ride sites - Beehive, Britford, London Road, Petersfinger and Wilton.

Child Soldiers and Transitional Justice
In a political climate that holds limited promise for addressing the issue of child recruitment, Child Soldiers and Transitional Justice: Protecting the Rights of Children Involved in Armed Conflicts challenges the trend towards a narrow focus on recruitment and use of the child, and seeks to contribute to more effective prevention and responses that offer the child a chance of recovery, reconciliation and reintegration.

This book adapts existing theoretical frameworks of transitional justice in order to analyse child recruitment, with a view to demonstrating how a society can address the issue in a holistic way. It systematises relevant knowledge across a wide range of legal fields to allow for greater understanding of the law and principles, and a more informed basis for practical engagement with transitional justice mechanisms.
Delving deep into the travaux préparatoires of each of the fundamental legal instruments, the author analyses their evolution, spanning humanitarian law, human rights law, criminal law, and other aspects of public law, including peace agreements and action plans developed with armed groups and forces. He provides a particular focus on and in-depth analysis of the Lubanga case, and its implications for other components of transitional justice. The findings highlight arguments for placing child recruitment firmly on the transitional justice agenda.
By considering child recruitment against a transitional justice framework, the book allows a detailed understanding of the distinct but complementary components – rule of law, criminal justice, historical justice, reparatory justice, institutional justice, and participatory justice – and reveals the untapped potential in interactions between different areas of transitional justice.

About the series:
Countries emerging from long periods of authoritarian rule must often confront a legacy of gross human rights abuses perpetrated over many years. During the past two decades, these age-old issues have been termed "problems of transitional justice", both by academics and policy makers around the world. Given the frequency with which these problems arise, as well as the complexity of the issues involved, it is striking that no book series has taken the issue of transitional justice as its point of focus.
The Series on Transitional Justice offers a platform for high-quality research within the rapidly growing field of transitional justice. This research is, of necessity, inter-disciplinary in nature, drawing from disciplines such as law, political science, history, sociology, criminology, anthropology and psychology, as well as from various specialised fields of study such as human rights, victimology and peace studies. It is furthermore international in outlook, drawing on the knowledge and experience of academics and other specialists in many different regions of the world.
The series is aimed at a variety of audiences who are either working or interested in fields such as crime and justice; human rights; humanitarian law and human security; conflict resolution and peace building. These audiences may include academics, researchers, students, policy makers, practitioners, non-governmental organisations and the media.

1980s Advertising Halloween TV & Radio 1980s 1984 Bill Cosby Charlie Brown Halloween knight rider Magnum PI Miami Vice October 1984 Peanuts sitcoms T.J. Hooker television The Cosby Show TV Guide TV shows
October 1984 TV Adverts: Miami Vice to Knight Rider in the Halloween Season of '84
It's time to delve into the stacks of yellowing pages of TV Guides from the year 1984 – specifically the October editions. It's the Halloween Season, and there's plenty of cheesy specials and godawful sitcoms to enjoy. Let's have a look!
Yes, it definitely was "tough being a kid" on 1980s sitcoms. These kids were constantly being molested, kidnapped and scarred-for-life. For more on the surprisingly horrific nature of 80s "comedies" check out: TV Nightmares.
The Hoff in a creepy monastery? It's sort of like The Name of the Rose… but retarded.
Wait.. that doesn't look like George Clooney. Oh, yes – this is a different "ER"… the terrible "comedic" predecessor to the 90s drama, starring Elliott Gould (who, it's important to note, would be declaring bankruptcy shortly thereafter).
It's getting near Halloween, so they're playing up the ghost bit…. spoiler alert: it's not really a ghost.
The Dukes of Hazzard was never exactly high-brow entertainment, but a robot Rosco was insanely stupid, even by the show's low standard. Suffice it to say, by 1984 it had long since jumped the shark.
And now a word from our sponsor:
Because murdering prostitutes is always hot! (Yeesh. Something tells me this wouldn't pass the politically correct censors of today.)
Miami Vice was new in October 1984, but it didn't take long before it was a phenomenon. Pastel colors, white jackets, cocaine, sports cars, to the tune of "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins… who could resist?
As someone who grew up with Bill Cosby – from I Spy to Fat Albert to The Cosby Show – I find what became of Cosby's reputation and legacy tremendously sad… perhaps well deserved, but still sad.
These days we take for granted high-production television like Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. So, it's hard to appreciate the awesomeness of a show like V, which, for the time, seemed absolutely epic.
As today, it was election season in October 1984 – it was Reagan (going for a second term) versus Walter Mondale, the former vice president under Jimmy Carter. Reagan mopped the floor with Mondale (in electoral votes, but not by much in popular votes) in an election that was nowhere near as low-down and dirty as Trump-Clinton race.
Also take note that we have yet another sitcom kid in peril. Damn those 80s sitcom kids were in a perpetual state of horrific tragedy!
It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, a Halloween classic.. Garfield in the Rough, not so much.
I wonder if "The City Killer" is any relation to TJ Hooker's "Boulevard Strangler"?
Dear God, everywhere this woman went, someone dies! My advice to you: if you see Angela Lansbury coming, run in the opposite direction as fast as your little legs will carry you.
Another glorious TJ Hooker advert for October '84. The flames under the exclamation mark are slightly different than before – but most definitely still HOT!
In that classic episode of Community, the professor poses the question to his "Communication Studies" class: "Who's the Boss?"… to which Abed replies: "Angela". Thus igniting perhaps the most important debate of our time: Who really was the boss? Angela, Mona or Tony? Talk among yourselves.
Three years after the premier of Elvira's Movie Macabre, she was everywhere on TV in 1984 – from The Tonight Show to The Fall Guy. For more pictures and information on Elvira that you could dream of, check out Elvira: An Illustrated History of the Mistress of the Dark.
Well, it's time to step away from Joan Collins' giant puffy shoulder pads, and end our tour of October 1984. Cheers!

Viennese things
Major Exhibitions in Vienna 2019
With boundless museums, galleries and concert venues, Vienna is a thriving hub for anyone who wants a little culture in their lives. From temporary exhibits inspired by modern life from up-and-coming artists to displays of famous artwork that date back centuries, here are all the best cultural and art events happening in Vienna, Austria in 2019.
Vienna Biennale for Change 2019
May 29th - October 6th at various locations throughout Vienna
The first event of its kind to blend design, art and architecture to boost creativity and support artistic projects, Vienna Biennale for Change 2019 is designed to make people think about today's major issues and open up new perspectives. This year's theme for the four-month festival is "BRAVE NEW VIRTUES. Shaping Our Digital World", which focuses on the handling of artificial intelligence and new technologies, developing innovative ways to work, new ways of living together and achieving responsible consumption of the world's resources.
Highlights include live music concerts held inside museums, themed art displays, lectures discussing important topics and evening parties with like-minded culture-seekers.
May 25th - October 26th at Mumok
A unique art exhibition unlike anything else you'll find in the city, Vertigo really plays with your senses and makes you question what's real and what's not. The interactive exhibit showcases the under-appreciated op art of the 1950s and 1960s through a vast spectrum of reliefs, panel paintings, installations, objects, films, computer-generated art and experiential spaces proving that grasping reality can sometimes be impossible.
Vertigo doesn't just just play with your sight. The powerful effects created by the optical illusions affect all your senses, creating a fun yet deceptive game you'll find oddly intriguing. The experience will leave you wondering if it's you that's spinning or your environment.
Salon Kümmernis. Flanieren und Diskutieren | Rubens bis Makart
Last Friday of every month 5:30pm - 8pm at the Albertina Museum
Larger than life local drag queen, Tiefe Kümmernis, invites you on a tour of one of the latest temporary exhibitions at the Albertina Museum, Rubens bis Makart. This out of the ordinary experience is best if you're into art history books, being inspired by artwork, philosophical chats over coffee and plenty of silliness designed to get everyone feeling involved and relaxed.
There are no reservations — places on the tour are on a first come, first served basis. So make sure you turn up early to avoid disappointment.
OSKAR KOKOSCHKA EXPRESSIONIST, MIGRANT, EUROPÄER

April 6th - July 8th at the Leopold Museum
A remarkably comprehensive exhibit displaying the works of Oskar Kokoschka, OSKAR KOKOSCHKA EXPRESSIONIST, MIGRANT, EUROPÄER features 250 pieces on loan from private collections and museums from all over the world. You'll have the chance to admire the artist's versatile paintings, watercolours, drawings and prints, as well as his works for art magazines such as "Der Sturm" and the theatre.
Oskar Kokoschka (1886 - 1980) dedicated his life to pacifism and humanism and is considered to be one of the most important artists of the 20th century. From 1908 onward, he was seen as a painter, graphic artist, playwright and poet, provoking the art world as a radical innovator. He greatly inspired other artists of his time and continues to inspire and affect people today through exhibitions such as this.
Über Leben am Land & Future Scenarios
March 23rd - August 25th at the Kunst Haus Wien
This year, Kunst Haus Wien is hosting two photography exhibitions — one about rural living (Über Leben am Land) and another about climate change and what may or may not happen in the future (Future Scenarios). The rural living exhibit spotlights what life is like in the countryside in Europe and the US, looking at the romantic side of farming life, as well as the remote, cut-off-from-society dreariness of life in the provinces. The climate change exhibit was designed following discussions with scientists and researchers, examining questions regarding our responsibility to the planet, as well as our vulnerability
Both exhibits are a combination of photographic viewpoints, video works, documentary-style approaches and research material.
Pattern and Decoration
February 23rd - September 8th at Mumok
The world is filled with patterns, from those found within the seeds in the centre of a sunflower to those used to create a structurally-sound city skyscraper. The curators of the Pattern and Decoration exhibit, Irene and Peter Ludwig, have rounded up samples of patterns used in decorations throughout history, to create the largest presentation of Pattern and Decoration since the 1980s in German-speaking Europe.
Through oriental-style mosaics, paintings, installations, monumental textile collages and performances, this collection of works is a bright and colourful contrast to the purism art of the 1960s.
Emperor Maximilian I. A great Habsburg
March 15th to November 3rd at the Austrian National Library
Commemorating the 500th anniversary of Emperor Maximilian I's death, Emperor Maximilian I. A great Habsburg is a special exhibition within the library's Grand Hall that takes a look at the famous ruler against the background of his own work, as well as new discoveries and achievements from the Middle Ages up to the modern era.
Pieces on display include textbooks from the emperor's childhood which provide an insight into his early education, as well as new astronomical findings and studies of ancient cultures. There are more than 90 valuable objects on display in total, honouring the great Habsburg and his life.
Arik Brauer. All of My Arts.
April 3rd - October 20th at the Jewish Museum Vienna
Celebrating 90 years of Arik Brauer, All of My Arts highlights the work of the talented artist, architect, singer and jack of all trades creative. The all-encompassing exhibition isn't limited to Arik Brauer's paintings. Displays feature everything from ceramics and music to dance, architecture and stage design, showing just how diverse and strong his talents really are.
As a young Jewish painter, Arik Brauer studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, where he dedicated himself to a unique form of painting that was worlds apart from the abstract art world. Inspired by surrealism, he went on to develop fantasy characters and worlds which, although initially went unappreciated by art critics, were eventually celebrated and loved by the public.

Grooming… What's the Bare Minimum?
One of the trickiest parts of my job can be a discussion with a client who needs to take his or her grooming up a notch. There are many reasons people let their attention to grooming wander. One is when our life/schedule goes haywire, for example: after a baby is born, or when we are taking care of a sick family member. I get it. In an emergency, we have other priorities. Some things fall by the wayside. Another common reason is depression. When the emergency-state grooming status becomes the norm, we may have a problem.
Makeup is not a necessity. When I was a girl and wanted to start wearing makeup, I remember my mother telling me that once you start wearing mascara, you never go back. She was right. I do have no mascara days, but they are rare. I wear makeup because it makes me happy, and not because I think there is something wrong with me. I have a "more defined me" approach to makeup, and a makeup bare minimum, too.
Just as clothing has "levels of refinement", I have three makeup levels of refinement. Play, Work, and Evening/Social would be my makeup levels. I don't understand the full face, sculpted brows, and illumination look for every day.
Level 3: Play Even on a bare-faced play day, I still tame my brows with a brush, slap on some powder or tinted moisturizer (depending on the season), and slick on lip balm (with a tint). If I put on a smile, the rest is just icing. A positive attitude gives you a glow that no makeup can replicate.
Level 2: Work My husband can tell if it's a work day, just by my face. No, not that I have a long face on a work day! I love my job! It's just that somewhere along the line he noticed that work days = eyeliner.
Level 1: Evening/Social More polished, more finished, more defined. I tend to leave the darker lip and nail colors for evening, and if it's a daytime event, stick with the lighter shades. Although a red lip and subtle eye are a fun daytime event look, too!

Training Outstanding Clinicians to Address the Needs of Children with Neurological Illness
The combined, categorical, ACGME-accredited Child Neurology Residency trains outstanding clinicians who are prepared to address the needs of children with neurological illness.
Nationwide Children's Hospital and The Ohio State University offer a combined, categorical, ACGME accredited Child Neurology residency. The overarching goal of the program is to train outstanding clinicians who are prepared to address the needs of children with neurological illness.
At completion of the training program, graduates will have the knowledge and clinical experience necessary to practice Child Neurology independently, either at an academic institution or in private practice. In addition, they will be prepared to successfully achieve certification both from the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and the American Board of Pediatrics.
In 2015, our program expanded from two to three residents per year. In 2012, we were granted 10-year accreditation by the ACGME, the longest accreditation cycle possible.

We discussed clause 16 when we dealt with clauses 2 and 3, so we have been pretty well round the houses on the issues. As I said at the time, we would have to put forward a proposition. There would have to be a consultation on that proposition and it would then have to come before the House in the form of a positive resolution statutory instrument before any of the measures could be introduced. As I was at pains to say last Thursday, and as I will repeat now, we have listened carefully to the debate on the issue in Committee and outside, and we shall be mindful of that as we take matters forward.
The law fixes the penalty imposed on an offender. If driving at a certain speed attracted, say, four, five or six points on a person's licence, there would be no discretion. If the person decided to contest that and go to court instead, the magistrate would have some discretion over the fine up to the maximum level permitted for that offence. Generally, the law sets out, as guidance to magistrates, obligatory amounts of penalty points that are imposed for an offence. We would need to have further discussions if we had a proposition to change that. The proposal would then go before the House again. It would be then be converted into guidance for courts, and it would probably be appropriate to look at any guidance that may be given to magistrates. I hope that that is helpful.

Smith Statement on $25 million in U.S. Department of Transportation Grants to Fund I-5 and South Link Lightrail Projects

Tommy Brittain, Washington State Transportation Secretary Paula Hammond and King County Councilmember Julia Patterson made the following statements after U.S. Department of Transportation announced a $15 million TIGER III grant to fund the I-5 Joint Base Lewis-McChord Area Congestion Management Project and a $10 million TIGER III grant to fund the South Link Lightrail Extension Project:
"Helping secure funds for projects that improve transportation throughout our region is one of my top priorities," said Congressman Smith. "These grants will help alleviate traffic for military personnel and communities around the JBLM corridor and save commuters time and money. They will also improve freight traffic, benefiting our local economy while adding hundreds of jobs to our region. These are significant wins for our district and I thank Congressman Dicks, along with Senators Cantwell and Murray for their longstanding support."
"We're grateful for the efforts of everyone involved to address the growing traffic congestion that has affect JBLM and our neighboring communities," said Col. Tommy Brittain. "We have worked very closely with local communities, regional and state agencies, and federal and state legislators, to develop strategies that mitigate the congestion brought about by growth in Pierce and Thurston Counties, as well as our growth here at JBLM. This grant is yet another indicator of the positive, cooperative relationship we enjoy with our neighbors, and we look forward to continuing to work together to find solutions to regional challenges."
"A true partnership is bringing about transportation improvements in the JBLM corridor," said Washington State Transportation Secretary Paula Hammond. "Our state delegation in D.C. helped win these federal dollars, and we have partners at the base and in Pierce County and local cities. With this grant money, we can make transportation investments in this critical corridor that will have an immediate impact on reducing some of the congestion."
"The South Link Project provides South County residents increased mobility to get to and from work, helps protect the environment by reducing the number of cars on the road, and provides huge opportunities for economic development around the station area," said Sound Transit Board and King County Councilmember Julia Patterson. "I offer my congratulations to all our partners in this effort."

Q: Setting a value of a struct and then reading it (access violation exception) I've a problem in my program. I'm getting a exception that crashes the program. Firstly, i innitialize my struct object in my class header. Like so:
    struct Settings {
    DWORD AccesibilityMode;
    bool Raw;
    DWORD Type;
};

Settings * thread_settings = new Settings(); //Here im getting the pointer of the newly created
object

Now i've innitialized what i need. Going on, now i need to set the variables of the struct pointer to the specific settings that i want (The struct is going to be used as a option/settings thingy). The struct pointer is private so i wrote a getter-method that returns the address of the pointer. It's written like this (in my .cpp file of the class):
Client::Settings* Client::Thread_Settings() {
return thread_settings;
}

Now, the method is a pointer that is accessible everywhere. I'm creating a object of the class and calling the address. Then im setting the vars like so (still no error to this point).
(object already defined)

client.Thread_Settings()->AcessibilityMode = 1; //Normally i have macros that are setted to these values
client.Thread_Settings()->Raw = false;
client.Thread_Settings()->Type = 33;

Lastly, the main function executes a method from the same class as the object struct pointer. These methods have if-statements that are checking the defined variables in the struct. These if lines are written like this:
if (thread_settings->Recv_BufferAccesibilityMode == 1 /*normally instead for 1 i've a macro*/ ) {
...... //rest of code
}

Now, i've got an access violation error that reads some unwritten memory (checked in an assembler) sometimes on 0x11C and sometimes at 0x12C. The error in vs19 looks loke this:
Exception thrown: read access violation.
this->thread_settings was 0x11C.

Do anyone have any thoughts? Appreciate any help :D

No! It is a serious question – not a laugh!
Bertrand Russell, in On Education in 1926 (p127), wrote: A truly robust morality can only be strengthened by the fullest knowledge of what really happens in the world. Russell was a Nobel laureate for literature as well as being a professor of mathematics and philosophy. In essence, he challenged many of the irrefutable assumptions of society which to him appeared to be accepted because that was the way it had always been.
The UN Declaration of Human Rights (1948) seems to be one of those current unchallengeable notions. So, is it absolute? It takes much of its philosophical authority from the US Declaration of Independence (1776) and the French Rights of Man (1789). Both of those documents drew on the ideas of the Enlightenment, from thinkers like John Locke, Rousseau and Voltaire.
They lived in the 17th and 18th centuries when the population of the planet was less than 1 billion people, in a time of institutionalised slavery, child labour, minimal education for the majority, when many women were seen as possessions whose roles were domestic and to rear children. A lot has changed in the world – mainly with the population now well over 7 billion and heading towards 8 billion within ten years. Some progress has been made toward equality, although the lack of many rights continues with the slavery of poverty, huge economic disparity across the world, racism and sexism … to name a few.
The UN Declaration of Human Rights is very light on responsibilities, particularly the requirements on those in power, those who control the wealth, those who can make a difference through their decision making.

Play PS4 games on your PC or Mac with the next major console update
Jacob Siegal @JacobSiegal
March 1st, 2016 at 8:43 AM
On Tuesday morning, Sony revealed that the next system software update for the PlayStation 4 will be available to those in the beta program starting this week. Codenamed MUSASHI, the 3.50 update is one of the most meaningful to hit the PS4 in months, bringing both minor improvements and major new features to the console.
DON'T MISS: iPhone gets features in latest Google Maps update that Android doesn't even have
PlayStation has always lagged behind Xbox when it comes to social features, but the 3.50 update should bring the two closer to parity.
When the update releases, PS4 users will be able to appear offline so that they won't be disturbed, turn on friend online notifications to be alerted when their friends come online, see what other party members are playing and even schedule future gameplay sessions with friends who will be automatically added to the party once the event begins.
But the centerpiece of the update has to be PS4 Remote Play finally making its way to PC and Mac. It won't be available to test in the beta, but once update 3.50 launches later this year, everyone with a PS4 will be able to stream games directly to their PC or Mac. Best of all, the PS4 controller is basically plug-and-play on computers, so gamers won't have to fiddle around with the controls to make everything work.
Finally, Dailymotion live streaming will come to PS4 as well, but the PlayStation team has even more to reveal in the coming weeks, including a release date.

We have been located on the top floor of the Crowne Plaza since June of 1990. We have heard many stories from people who were part of the various construction crews who worked on making this a tall building. And we're nervous.
You take it for granted most of the time, but every time the wind speeds reach about 40 mph, we feel the sway of this place. I'm sure it's probably fine. But that doesn't mean that I can't worry, right?
And, if the wind did blow it over, then I would've been wrong. I was always sure it would be earthquake related. Like maybe that super volcano under Yellowstone Park finally blows and take us all with it.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or using a handheld electric whisk), combine confectioner's sugar, egg white, extract and salt. Mix the ingredients on low speed until a paste forms. The paste should have the consistency of liquid glue. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue mixing until all the confectioner's sugar is fully incorporated.
Divide the paste into as many portions as you have colors (although, this recipe works best with a maximum of 3 colors), tinting each batch with the color of the choice. Use a rubber spatula to stir the food coloring into the paste until it is an even color.
Transfer the different colored pastes into their own pastry bags, each fitted with a small pastry tip (I recommend Wilton's #2 or #3). Pipe out long, thin lines on a cookie or jelly roll pan, ensuring that the lines do not touch each other. Repeat the process with the remaining colors and allow the piped lines to set, uncovered in a dry place, for 24 hours.
Once the piped lines have dried completely, inside and out, use a bench scraper or a butter knife to break and/or chop the piped lines into short, sprinkle sized pieces. Use immediately, or store in a dry, airtight container for up to 1 month.
Homemade sprinkles! Incredible! I finished reading about techniques for cooking (I found a great book that was free called How to Cook: An Easy Guide to Cooking Techniques) and I've been looking for baking techniques and found this. Next on my list to try ... !
So, dried Royal Icing, but with flavoring. OK, that's a step up from the mystery ones in the store. I wonder if one could make tiny dots using the smallest round decorator tip. It would take forever, but it would be a fun project to do with children.
Hmm..so sounds like these are basically dried royal icing.
I grew up in Holland, where sprinkles are an artform. Ok, maybe not an artform... but they're serious business. Adults and kids alike eat them on buttered bread for breakfast. They're sold in dark and milk chocolate, mocha, vanilla, sugar covered anise seed, fruit and berry flavors.. and that's just the rounded varieties!
Imagine my disappointment when I stumbled upon the waxy tasteless things I found in US supermarkets. ICK. My step-son loves sprinkles (I believe he may have been born without tastebuds, judging by the rest of his food favorites). I really need to make these for him!
What an interesting thing to know about! As for sugar-covered anise seed, I found a bag of those in an Indian food market. In Indian restaurants I have seen those offered at the exit, with a little spoon for serving, in the way an American restaurant might offer mints. They are very colorful. But they do taste like anise, of course, and children might not prefer that.
Suddenly sprinkles are no longer a scary "food"! Thank you! thank you! the little people in my life who clamor for sprinkles (and think I'm just being a stingy aunt) thank you!


WESLACO, TX – June 20, 2018 changed the lives of many people in Weslaco, especially mine.
The flood caused devastation to those who are the most vulnerable in our society, the elderly, disabled and the many families that live paycheck to paycheck. This flood exposed the many problems in our community beyond drainage. The irony that a faulty drainage system would expose the faulty leadership is sadly comical.
The elected officials at all levels, from city to county, pushed for a narrative that pointed the finger of blame at everything except the cause. They blamed God, mother nature, too much rain and illegal dumping.
The problem was that I began a process that turned viral. Who would have thought that drainage ditches would become the talk of the town? A few months into this and the term "Ditch Walker" or "Drain Warrior" is synonymous with a political revolutionist in the Mid-Valley.
Many have joined the efforts in exposing dirty and poorly maintained drainage. I have been named "Mr. Anti- Corruption," "Mr. Drain the Swamp" and even been compared to Danny Trejo's famous character Machete.
The light that the webpage Make Weslaco Drain Again brought to the faulty drainage did not allow the elected officials to lie to the citizens with narratives any longer. The truth was exposed.
Many have asked me if I will run for elected office. At the moment, my answer is that I am running after these elected officials so that they will start acting right by the citizens.

I've taken my vanilla coconut cookie recipe and have adapted them to make this delicious, festive treat!
These ginger & cinnamon spice coconut cookies make the perfect soft, grain-free Christmas cookie. I'm absolutely loving them!
These cookies are super easy to make and are perfect to keep in the cookie jar for a cheeky (guilt-free) treat and are even better to leave out for Santa (Santa loves healthy cookies, and I heard he gives better gifts to those who help him to be healthy – apparently he is trying to lose weight).
This recipe is grain & gluten-free as well as nut-free, sugar-free and dairy-free. This recipe also contains healthy fats & good protein AND they're free from any nasty processed ingredients.
My favorite way to enjoy one of these cookies (or a few) is to dunk them into a glass of almond milk… I also like to spread a little bit (or a lot) of nut butter on the top (I love macadamia & almond) and they're AMAZING with my maple & cinnamon spice almond butter – so cheeky!
Ps. Make sure that you check out my vanilla coconut cookie recipe – they're so simple & delicious!


My friend Andy had come up with the idea of an Easy Rider Trip, a journey along the path Wyatt and Billy had taken in the movie "Easy Rider". He made his idea public sometime in Spring 2004 on a mailing list which deals with vintage Honda Four motorcycles (the Single Over Head Cam / Four list, or SOHC/4). Soon a lot of people who were interested gathered on a discussion board, and we exchanged route suggestions, bike ideas and dates.
Among those who were about go on that trip were not only U.S. residents but also three Europeans, namely Stevie from Scotland, Tim from the UK and me, Axl, from Germany. First, we had to find some bikes. Bringing our own bikes over just for the trip was a bit of an overkill, so we decided to buy bikes in or around L.A. and sell them after the trip in New Orleans. Mark and Fabrizio, both from L.A. had offered to pick up any bike we would find and store it for us. The favorite marketplace for all kind of stuff these days is Ebay, so we kept on looking out for any decent looking Honda CB 750 SOHC bikes.
Stevie, who had kept a low profile so far, was the first to find a bike. It was missing the sidecovers, but otherwise looked ok. Well, when the bike was delivered, it turned out it also missed the airbox and headlight, and, above all, a title. But there were still a couple of weeks left to sort things out.
Tim bought a bike from a fellow SOHC/4 guy who also is on the SOHC/4 list, a 1978 F2 model. When it was delivered to Mark, it turned out that it also needed some attention - rear tire, turn signals didn't work and so on.
Whooaaa! A semi chopped 750, a real piece from the '70s - the perfect bike for the Easy Rider Trip! I had to get it - and I did. The seller was just a few blocks from Mark's place, and it was "just another bike" which Mark picked up and stored in his garage.
Meanwhile, I had given up the idea of selling the bike in New Orleans. First, I had figured that by the time we would arrive in New Orleans, this would be the bike I made the Easy Rider Trip with. Second, the idea of accompanying Andy on his way from New Orleans back to Boston sounded appealing - thus it would be a real ride across America. Lastly, I have a habit of hanging on to any CB 750 SOHC bike I can get hold of.
Apparently I was the lucky guy - the chopper came with a title, it ran, and everything on it was working. Nonetheless, Mark spent some time customizing it a bit more with a side mounted taillight and a sissy bar Jason had lying around. All these were perfect matches for the chopper!
Mark was so busy attending the bikes of us Europeans that eventually he didn't get around to get one of his Honda bikes ready for the trip. So he ended up taking his beautiful Harley Sportster Cafe racer and lived on pain killers for the next two weeks.
Fabrizio had to retrofit his Honda Cafe racer back to a tourer - eventually he had a choice of three different foot pegs: Rearsets, stock pegs and highway bars.
Ute was pretty much set up with her nice 550, as were Jason with his beautyful 750 and his dad Jer with a CX500.
Andy had shipped his bike from Massachusetts, as did Elwood from Virginia.
We all met in L.A. on Thursday, August 26. The trip should start on Saturday, leaving one day for setting everything up and fixing what needs to be fixed. For the Europeans, this was the first time we saw our bikes in real. And there was still a bit to be fixed: Tim had to mount his luggage rack, Stevie's bike still needed the most attention: "Your bike has no brakes, and you have no insurance. I think we should fix your horn."
Tim and I took care of Stevie's front caliper, while Stevie himself was busy on the phone getting insurance. Instead of an airbox, we bought a set of foam pod filters - driving through the desert with no air filter at all didn't sound reasonable.
I had a bit of surprise when I took the chopper for a first ride. This was the first time I rode a bike with extended forks (all my other bikes are Cafe racers or stock). Whoops - this handles a bit different, to say the least. Good for long straights (of which we should see a lot) but difficult in the curves. Above all, I found that the forks were warped. But the heck - this is a chopper, so go for it!

GOG.com: Urban Chaos and Gangsters: Organized Crime our Available. Real Power is Never Giving its Taken
King Toko	Games, My Opinion, News, Screenshots, Videos	 15/09/2012 15/09/2012 2 Minutes
"The boss sends he's regards."
Two great games have been released in the last week over on GOG.com. Urban Chaos and Gangsters: Organized Crime are now available to buy for $5.99 (£3.69) each. Gangsters: Organized Crime was developed and published by Hothouse Creations and Square Enix. With Urban Chaos been developed and published by Mucky Foot Productions and Square Enix.
Gangsters: Organized Crime
This view is your friend.
From gog.com: "lets you manage all aspects of a mob "family business". Set in a vast city presented in detailed isometric view and populated with over 5,000 individual characters, it features real-time action mixed with careful planning. Did you think that being a Don is easy? Now you can see first-hand how complicated a life of crime might get."
Try doing that in real life.
"delivers solid fighting sequences in a varied, dynamic environment of a rioting city and wraps them up in an original storyline. You take control over two characters: a female law enforcement officer D'arci Stern or an ex-soldier vigilante Roper McIntyre, each of them with a unique fighting style. The 24 non-linear stages can be completed in various ways ranging from car chases, through shootouts, to hand-to-hand brawls. A day-night cycle, changing weather conditions, and random encounters will make every playthrough a unique experience."
Gangsters: Organized Crime Intro.
Urban Chaos Intro.
Now what one do you think is better? I would say the first one. You can't beat some good old fashioned extortion.
Both are fun games to play especially Gangsters: Organized Crime. However some might not agree with me but I would say that they are only saying that because they suck badly at the game. I became the ultimate godfather with ruthless and cunningly dispatching my opponents to become the top dog of New Temperance and that's without the help of guides and a walkthrough.
Gangsters: Organized Crime is one of the best mafia themed games ever made and one hell of a strategy game. Mafia was good a game but a lot like a movie while Gangsters: Organized Crime is like being part of the real thing. It's the closest most will get to extorting, arson and much more without getting put away for years. It really helps if you a fan of the subject matter.
No one said crime would be pretty.
Urban Chaos was a ground breaking game in its day it came out way before Grand Theft Auto III so it was incredible the things you could see and do in that game.
They both bring back good memories.

Suddenly I found myself on stage at a pulpit in front of an audience waiting for me to deliver a sermon. I found a Bible in front of me and started to look for passages from which I could tell a cohesive story. I don't know what I talked about, but I felt I was doing well enough that no one would notice that I wasn't prepared.
Realizing that music would be expected, I turned to the music director but naturally did not know the hymnal and could think of nothing that made sense in conjunction with what I'd just said. The music director announced "Hymn #141." Although I didn't know what it was, I hoped the selection seemed planned and complementary to the sermon. I had misgivings about the music director because I feared that he (or she) suspected me. My worry stemmed from a sense of guilt, but I didn't understand its source.
As I was waking up, I was thinking that being a minister isn't very difficult at all — I had gotten away with it without having had to spend time on agonizing over a sermon. After I became a little more awake, I felt oppressed by the idea of having to come up with something fresh week after week, year after year, while providing spiritual and marital counseling and performing all the other day-to-day duties I didn't know about.

Three Songs, No Flash. The Beths @ Whammy Bar
Wednesday 12 January 2022 – Auckland
Before I start here is a quick note for anyone who landed here from a Google search while looking for information on The Beths Whammy Bar series. I couldn't find the stage times elsewhere. This was from the Wednesday night performance so may not reflect the following nights.
Other than Friday 14 Jan, all five Auckland shows are sold out.
Doors at 7:00, the support band, Lips were on stage at 8:00 and The Beths on soon after 9:00.
A vaccine pass was required; most of the punters were wearing masks (yahoo).
Whammy has been proactive and installed some much needed, and very efficient, air-conditioning. The staff were great too.
Capacity has been reduced from 210 to 170 which made a massive difference to space.
The most important thing you'll want to know; was the Wednesday gig any good? Hell yes, of course!
After the obligatory 'Hi, we're The Beths from Auckland New Zealand', the band started with the fabulous oldie 'Happy Unhappy' with its poptastic 'oh-uh' opening, before launching into a set that seemed to have more tracks from the first LP than the second. All the 'hits' were there as you would expect so I doubt anyone will leave disappointed their favourite song wasn't played. They introduced three new songs, unusually closing the encore with one of them, the very un-Beths like rager 'Silence is Golden', a track I'm looking forward to hearing on record.
If you have not heard The Beths and you like indie pop with great musicianship and witty songs with the best vocal harmonies New Zealand has produced since The Muttonbirds, then you definitely need to check them out. Then go buy some records. They are a great band, seem like lovely people and deserve to be huge, though not stadium huge as I hate stadium gigs. The Beths are doing a good old fashioned five night residency at the freshly post-lockdown re-opened Whammy Bar on Auckland's K' Rd.
My favourites 'Future me Hates me', 'Uptown Girl' and 'I'm not getting excited' were played at pace and were fabulous, as was 'Jump rope gazers'. With so many people masked up the crowd singing along was slightly muted too, an unexpected bonus!
Australian artist Stella Donnelly was supposed to play the support slot but was unable to attend due to the travel restrictions. The Beths played one of her songs 'Tricks' in tribute, I thought that was the weakest song of the set.
We saw a great The Beths set at Heaven in London in August 2019, along with 1100 other people, though this much more intimate venue really suits their personalities. The on stage and audience banter worked so much better here and at times it felt like it was a sing-along with mates rather than a public show. With fewer people than normal Whammy Bar was the best it has been, the sound was excellent, particularly at the back and the lighting was not too terrible for photography, though I still had to convert to mono as the colour cast was pretty bad 🙂
I stayed at the front taking photos for the first three songs before heading to the raised area at the back to stand with Eleanor to enjoy the rest of the show.
I have not heard support band, Lips, before. I thought they were OK, they had some good songs, the first couple and the last were the standouts for me.
While Covid rates are (thankfully) incredibly low in New Zealand we all know how virulent the omicron variant is and we won't know it's in the community until it's in the community. Getting Covid right now, just before we head off on holiday, and then back to London would be just so ironic. With that in mind I (we?) was a little tentative in the hours before the gig; this was only the second show we've gone to since Feb 2020 when we saw Penelope Isles in St Leonards. The last gig we went to was Deathcrash in July 2021 and it was a fully seated, socially distant event held in a Hackney church. The lack of shows was not through lack of desire; there were none in the UK before we left for New Zealand, and when we arrived in Auckland we went straight into lockdown. Gigs have just started again and we were so glad we got to go this one before we leave. It was originally scheduled for September and had been postponed twice before.
For a return to standing gigs we couldn't have picked a better one. It was a fun show; great band, good sound, busy but not packed venue, and most importantly smiles round (as far as I could tell as the majority of the audience were wearing masks).

3 nights, 3 gigs.
Friday 23 March 2018 – London.
Walking out of the Tufnell Park Dome into the cool and drizzly north London night, both ears ringing, I had a big smile on my face after two loud gigs in two nights. Guitar Wolf last night and The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing tonight. A very much needed blow out after a really busy and stressful work week. Six performance reviews completed, meetings galore and an inundation of last minute requests had me thinking that three nights out in a row would just be too much to take and I would not last the distance.
We are very fortunate here in Walthamstow to have the e17 Rock and Roll Book Club. Run by Mark, he organises authors to come along and talk about themselves and their books. Most often these authors write about music or are musicians themselves. A couple of weeks ago we had Brett Anderson, the singer from Suede. Tonight (Wednesday) we have Hooky at Mirth, Marvel and Maud. Peter Hook, bass player from Joy Division and New Order. Joy Division being one of my most loved groups of all time, arriving in my life at the same time as the break up with my first girlfriend. Staying with me through both good and bad times ever since.
Hooky was hugely entertaining. I don't think he directly answered any of the questions posed, not trying to avoid, just he had way better anecdotes that wandered off in many different directions. Very funny, and very engaging. He also played a couple of quick tunes as part of the show, the longest of the many e17 RnR Book Club events we have been too.
Mirth, Marvel and Maud is a large bar in the foyer/reception area of a reclaimed cinema about a five minute walk from home and a fairly recent addition to a rapidly gentrifying Walthamstow. The Maud theatre, where the Hooky talk was, stands about 120 people maybe and was the venue for Thursday nights much different and much louder affair. A gig by Japanese punk and rollers, Guitar Wolf. This was the first gig I have attended in the venue.
We missed the first band, arriving in time for the second, Los Pepes. Slightly clichéd Ramones style punk rock with a bit of lead guitar thrown in for good measure. I really liked them. I was really impressed with the sound quality and having a gently sloping floor meant those of us at the back had some sort of view. Why are there so many tall people at gigs? I took to the front for a couple of songs to take a couple of photos. If I had been younger and the circumstances different I would have been tempted to jump up and down a bit. A shame no one did as the band deserved some sort of reaction.
Sadly the same quality of sound was not there for the headliners. Guitar Wolf have been around for decades, they have been to NZ a few times, though I have never seen them.
They were unlistenably loud; and I love loud, even more I love a wall of noise, but this was just a sludgy overdriven mess and I could hear nothing but a roaring noise. I was really disappointed as they were a bit of fun.
I stayed up the front for a couple of photos and then moved to the back for a bit with El and some friends. Frustrated, and deaf, we left soon after. The light was pretty terrible for photography as well.
Friday I was in Tufnell Park with Steve and Arthur to see The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing (TMTWNBBFN). Steve has seen them a few times, but this was my first experience of a live steam punk band. I was also new to the Dome,which is a great venue and I will go and see a band there again, great bar and selling my favourite beer was a definite bonus.
There were three support acts, the first two were neither here nor there, but I really enjoyed 'I Destroy' who were by miles the best of them.
TMTWNBBFN were mostly brilliant, a couple of dud tracks in the middle, but they were a lot of fun, playing a variety of different styles, but not veering too far from a punky/metal sound. Lyrics are where they truly excel, songs about Victoriana, Marie Curie, Jack the Ripper; and the set finale is the classic rock and roll tale of Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Everyone's favourite civil engineer. Brilliant!
Three nights out in a row, haven't done that for a very long time; and I didn't even have a big lie in the next Saturday! I have tickets to five more gigs, I have never been this well organised in the past. Really looking forward to them all, next up is Graeme Jefferies in Auckland in four weeks.
Rock on 🙂

Spectres @ The Waiting Room, Stoke Newington.
April 20 2016, London.
Bristol band Spectres' debut LP 'Dying' made it through 2015 as my album of the year. There was some great music released last year, but Dying got played a lot and gets played a lot in 2016 as well. A follow-up LP is due sometime this year, and both times I have seen the band they have played new material that may or may not appear on this new LP. I will have to wait and see.
While I, and others, wait for this new album Spectres recently released a remix album of Dying called 'Dead'. There are remixes by a couple of artists I really like, such as Stuart Braithwaite of Mogwai fame, Richard Fearless and Andy Bell from Ride. The vinyl copy arrived on the day we went to New Zealand, but I did get the download code and listened to the LP a few times while I was away. It is OK, not fabulous, there are some great remixes and some that do nothing for me at all. I do like guitar noise far more than synths and computers.
When the band announced two shows at The Waiting Room in Stoke Newington I was definitely not going to miss out so grabbed a ticket before we went away.
I wasn't overly keen on either support band, and being incredibly fussy I arrived at the venue at what should have been half way through the set of the second support. They hadn't even started. I watched a bit of their set before retiring to the pub upstairs for a quiet drink and a seat. If I had arrived earlier and managed to have been closer to the stage with a better view I may have stayed as they looked like they could have been a bit of fun.
I went back down to the basement venue once the support audience had cleared and got my self a spot near the stage. I was hoping to get a few decent photos so took along the Canon 5d. I should have known from the last time I saw them that they would pretty much play in the dark. Sadly my old 5d does not do really low light – unlike the newer models, though I think even those would have struggled tonight.
I grabbed this one of the bass player during the sound check. The last time there was any light even closely usable for non-flash photography.
What did make some photography possible was the use of strobes from half way through the set, though they were poorly placed on the ceiling rather than down low, I managed to time a few shots right and got some images lit up by strobes.
Even though there is not much detail, and the guitarist is blurred, I like this photo the best.
The set was loud, I mean really loud, I have been to loads of shows over the years, but this was definitely one of the loudest I have been too. I am glad I took ear plugs. I usually take them but rarely use them, for tonight's gig, they were essential.
The last time I saw them the set was just played on guitar, bass and drums. With the new remix LP they mixed it up a bit playing some tracks with a bit of electronica, it worked on some and not on others. It was still interesting. A fifth member came on stage for one of the tracks,
As they came on stage so late I did not get to see the end of the set. Disappointingly I had to leave to get the train home, so missed what was probably a good finale!
It was a good, and too short a show and I liked the venue as well.

Ride @ Brixton Academy.
Wednesday 13 October 2015 – London.
I have a confession to make. I love music. I mean, I really, really love music.
Lots of people say that they love music, and they may well think they do, but after a bit of gentle interrogation I usually find that they really like music, most of the time. A bit like they love puppies and small children and other things that distract from the important things. Like music, for instance.
My love for music started in December 1988 on a trip back to the UK with my family. I was 16 and my childhood friend Nick played me the Buzzcocks song 'Promises'. It was love at first listen, complete and total. I had enjoyed music before this momentous day, some could even say I had loved music. I was a fan of heavy rock, of Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple – my first LP was a birthday gift of Deep Purple's Burn. I had even flirted with disco when Saturday Night Fever was taking over the world, but I had not found my true love, and to be honest I didn't know true love really existed.
I had missed the whole punk thing. New Zealand is small, and was a long way behind the rest of the world, and without older siblings of my own or knowing anyone really connected with local music I had never heard anything like it. I believe it did literally change my life. I started my final year at school when I got back to New Zealand after Christmas and the first thing I did was look for others who had heard this amazing noise – and over time my social group changed as I met other like minded people. I bought my first records. The Clash 'Give 'em enough rope' was the first LP I bought with my own money. Once I started working it was gigs and records and parties where only MY music was played. I turned into a true music snob – If I did not like your music taste then you would never be my friend. It was not pretty, this lasted for many many years – I have mellowed a bit, I think.
I was, and am still, very fussy about music. I like what I like, and it is within a very narrow band. I did finally move on from punk, though I still like and listen on those rare occasions when yelly music is required. My tastes are a little more publicly acceptable – I still like guitar orientated music, but now acknowledge there is a place for keyboards, in the right place. I think it is finally time to admit to myself that really I like pop music, I do not mean popular music, just music that is a bit pop. Lots of melody a bit of vocal harmony, jangly guitars, solid beat, but…. There has to be a bit of a racket going on as well, it cannot be all sweetness and light. There can be sweetness and light, in fact I like that, but only if it is all descends into some noisy feedback, overdriven chaos. Which leads me to Ride.
In 1990 the Oxford band Ride released their first EP Chelsea Girl on the Creation label. I am not sure when I first heard it, but it must have been soon after its release. It was a great song, sweet and jangly and then nice and noisy, I loved it, and then I never heard it again for years. I bought their first album Nowhere soon after it came out later in 1990 and it has remained a favourite album of mine since. I still had not heard Chelsea Girl again, it was not on the album and while the song itself faded from my memory the fact that I liked it did not and I did not get to hear again until well into the Napster days when I finally found an illegal download of it. It immediately became one of my favourite songs again, and slips in and out of being my favourite song of all time. I finally got a copy on a CD compilation of their first three EPs. I still want it on vinyl though…
Ride split in acrimonious circumstances in 1996. They never came to New Zealand so I never got to see them play. They reformed last year for a few shows and I tried to get tickets to their first London gig, but missed out. I wasn't prepared to go to a festival to watch them so sort of forgot about seeing them again.
A couple of weeks ago they announced a series of shows to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of Nowhere, I jumped straight on to a ticket booking website and grabbed two tickets for the show at the Brixton Academy in London. Yes !!!
El could not make the concert so I ended up going to down to Brixton on my own. In 2008/9 I did a small amount of gig photography and got quite used to going to concerts on my own, so while I would have liked to have shared one of my favourite bands playing one of my favourite all time albums, being on my own was OK as well.
I arrived at the venue early enough, raised a second mortgage on my house so I could afford to buy a can of beer and sat myself down upstairs. I had decided to get an upstairs ticket, I was never going to get close enough to the front to take a photo so the front of the balcony was a good second choice. I took the little Canon G16 as I was not sure if they would let me take a DSLR in. My spot was not the best, but I took a few photos, very high ISO and a bit far away, they are not my best work. A good memory for me though!
Ride were supporting themselves in this show, playing a first set of classic songs, mainly from their second album 'Going Blank Again', followed by the Nowhere album. It all kicked off nice and early at 8:00pm.
They were fantastic, playing most of my favourite songs in the first set, starting with Leave Them All Behind and ending with the wonderful Mouse Trap. The lighting was brilliant and the sound quality was superb. The band are playing better than ever and are incredibly tight, with the solid rhythm section of Loz Colbert on drums and Steve Queralt on bass holding it all down for the twin guitar/twin vocal attack of Andy Bell and Mark Gardener.
There was a good crowd, and they were really getting into it.
After a short break they returned to play the Nowhere album from start to finish. My favourite track from the album is Polar Bear, and I really expected this to be brilliant and noisy and a bit of a squall, but it wasn't. It was still great but just a little too clean sounding for me. What did surprise was the last track on the album and the one I always liked least, Nowhere. Live it was fantastic, a highlight of a really good set.
Andy – 10 years as the bass player for Oasis, mod haircut and sun glasses – and a lovely Rickenbacker guitar.
I went downstairs to the main hall for a short while at the end of the set, it was really packed down there and I could barely get in through the door. Sadly there were too many people hanging round at the back chatting so I went back up stairs and, after getting told off by security for standing at the top of the stairs, took another seat closer to the centre of the venue.
The album cover for Nowhere is a classic, and has been the inspiration for a few photos over the years. Including this one I put on Flickr in 2008. I named it Chrome Wave, after a Ride song.
The Nowhere record sleeve was used as the backdrop between sets.
There was another short break before they came back on for the encore. They played Drive Blind, which is a fabulous song, one of their earliest and it really did not disappoint. A mix of sweet pop with a massive wall of noise break in the middle. Fantastic. I have read that this is often the final song in their set and was gutted that Chelsea Girl had not been played, but thankfully, I was wrong. As the last chords of Drive Blind faded Andy Bell, plucked the first few notes of what is again my favourite song of all time and I jumped with joy…
It was a great gig, almost perfect. There was only one song in the first set that I did not recognise. The sound was really good throughout, lighting was great and the band fabulous.
Andy, Mark, Loz and Steve – thanks for a great evening and some fantastic songs!
Here is Chelsea Girl from a gig at the same venue, but from 1992….

The Buzzcocks thing is not actually true. Nick first played me 'Hanging on the telephone' by Blondie which was (and is) a great song. This was immediately followed by the Buzzcocks track. Sadly in my musically snobbish world, having Buzzcocks as a first love is much cooler and I pretty much wrote the Blondie episode out of my memory.
