Your data is transferred directly. We do not store your files on our servers, even temporarily.
We know how to do migrations properly and taught our software to. Your website will not go down.
Manual migrations are not easy. Many factors need to be taken into account. ... But not anymore!
Rehostio detects your servers' characteristics and determines the right way to do the migration. Everything happens automatically.
All you have to do is tell it where your site is and where you want it to be.
Note that Rehostio does not change anything on your source server neither does it point the DNS after the migration. There is no downtime - your site stays up during the migration.
Once the migration is done you will get simple instructions on how to verify the migration and then point the DNS to your new host.
Rehostio can move your websites from any host to any host as long as it supports PHP and curl.
If you have a complex site, which requires advanced code changes to work on a new host, our engineers will help you with that.

Does God ever refuse to forgive in this life?
If one is COflSCIOUS of having resisted the call of God, may not that make it impossible for Him to forgive?
It is quite certain that God will never refuse forgiveness in this life to anyone who comes to Him as a sinner in the Name of the Lord Jesus, pleading in faith His atoning work. No other plea can suffice, but that will always reach the ear of God. "To Christ give all the prophets witness, that through His Name, whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins" (Acts 10:43). "We have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins" (Ephesians 1:7). This is the forgiveness of God as Judge. Then to believers, the Father's forgiveness, for the restoration of communion, is granted on confession. "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9).
As to Divine forgiveness, there may seem to be an exception in Matthew 12:31, where the assurance of "forgiveness of all manner of sin and blasphemy" is qualified by the Lord with the words, "but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men," the reason of His saying this being, "because they said He hath an unclean spirit." I know this is usually taken as proving that the Pharisees had actually committed the "unpardonable sin;" for myself I feel more and more persuaded, taking other Scriptures into consideration, that the Lord was rather warning them of the terrible danger of refusing the future testimony of the Spirit, at and after Pentecost.
The rejection of Christ did not shut the door of forgiveness, for the Spirit was poured forth; but if His testimony were rejected there could only remain judgment. No one who finally rejects that testimony will ever, I believe, feel the need of forgiveness, much less ask for it. How many there are who did at first resist the offers of God's mercy, and the pleadings of His Spirit, but who afterwards were led to repentance. Was not Paul's "kicking against the pricks" a case in point? But it is not poor, timid, anxious souls who have finally resisted the appeal of the Spirit, but hardened and impenitent sinners like the murderers of Stephen.

Has anyone taken delivery of their Z4 Tablet yet? They were supposed to have been sent out in limited numbers, by the looks of it, in the UK. Sony aren't taking any more orders through their website but even the Amazon page fir it isn't very confidence inspiring - there's not even a picture on it so it looks like it's a fair bit of time until it's launched on there.
Anyone? Not quite sure if it's out there yet?
Got mine today. LTE model purchased on eBay for $660 shipped.
Yes I got mine back in July it came with the bluetooth keyboard.
How are you folks who have one liking it?
It's stupidly amazing! I love it! The screen and thinness still amaze me. Unfortunately mine becomes a little slow and flustered when I ask it to multitask lots of apps but other than that it runs smoothly. I was really amazed to hear the sound it produced - the Sony sound suite produces literally the best sound I've ever heard.
Thank you. I was looking at a Pixel C and a Z4, but I think I'm going with the Z4.
Good choice! Don't forget, in most countries (the UK at least) they include the keyboard with the tablet.
Android M - Any people using it?
Any helpful reviews using a 128gb ultra microSDXC for my HTC One m8 ?
When I add favorites to my call menu, why does it list contacts I don't have any more?

After hearing a survivor's story, this NFL player joined her efforts against sexual violence
by admin | Nov 26, 2021 | #MeToo, SEW | 0 comments
The auditorium on the first floor of North Carolina State's James B. Hunt Jr. Library, with its rows of seats that rise to the back wall, can make for an intimidating platform. From that stage one day in April 2019, Brenda Tracy, a 5-foot-10 stranger to most in the room, shared her story with close to 400 of the school's male athletes.
She told them of the night in 1998 when she was 24 and she and a friend attended a party. She told them how she was drugged and gang-raped by four men, two of whom were Oregon State football players. She told them how she first contacted the police anonymously and a search warrant was executed and evidence collected. She told them how the nurse who examined her at Salem Hospital testified that "by all indications, this was a case of nonconsensual sex." Read More

Your reply 74 in this thread Socalboy raises several points I left out of my own comment--it is the quality of the interviewer for which we have much to thank. I would go so far as to say, with perhaps one or two 'women's angle' interviews dealing with the daughter/parent relationship, or her adapting to living alone etc, this is the first time she has been interviewed by 'someone of substance', probably because there were two interviews: one with her and one with James Horner.
There is series of programmes that comes on TV UK periodically the title of which is eluding me, it is a specialist arts programme with top rate interviewers who have properly researched the background and gone into great depth of interpretation with their interviewees. I cannot think of it... Dave.., Richard..., Roger? Its not 'Film on 4' but a 'high-brow' across the arts programme of that nature. They did two on the novelist Graham Greene over the years.
This is an interview in which the 'real Hayley' has been allowed to emerge and as I said in my own post we have learned more about the professional Hayley than her autobiography tells us. This is understandable because her autobiography is just that, her version of her life to date for the generally interested reader.
This is where Libby Purves failed in her interview with Hayley--Purves was more concerned with 'Libby Purves presents' than bringing out her interviewees for themselves. That too may be due to the nature of her programme--to an extent--but I still feel that Libby Purves is out for Libby Purves, not to get the best from her guests.
This interview probes deeply into Hayley. It really starts to flesh out the skeleton we have been aware of. What have I learned about Hayley from this interview? NOTHING! Nothing that I had not already guessed and hoped was behind the curtains backstage in the Green Room that leads to her stage performances.
It shows the depth and diversity of her life awareness, the intensely enquiring mind and her desire to grasp and understand all that she can. Unusually for anyone of this nature, let alone one so young, she shows an extraordinary patience to absorb in the project's own time all that needs to be grasped to master what is needed.
For those who have the professionalism to be good enough to be privileged to work with her or share the stage with her, she must be an absolute joy... as well as, perhaps, something of a challenge? No wonder the choir at Bath sidled out to watch her perform her solos. They knew the privilege was theirs to be on the same programme with her.
Addendum. I rather suspect I shall come back to this time and time again. I have resisted going through it and noting the points but every time I read it I see something else.
How do you do to listen to the wind?
I've been listening to the wind since I was born. Sometimes the wind is called Johann Sebastian Bach, sometimes it's James Horner, and sometimes it's a sound from where I live. I abandon myself to the mysteries of the world and I try to share this through a vocal performance.
This immediately brought to my mind the pictures for 'Odyssey'. Look again at those booklet pictures, 'The wind is in her hair'. This interview highlights so many subtle statements of who she is that have been before our eyes, the significance of which we can now appreciate but how many of us have noticed other than subliminally?
Thank you so much for your translation. You're amazing!!! It must have taken hours to translate it. We can't thank you enough for that.
The soudtrack hasn't found its way to my CD collection so far. Something I have to change.
I also know Howard Shore, who magnificently transposed the gorgeous scenery of New Zealand to his soundtracks for The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
By this, does she just mean she is just familiar with Howard Shore's music, or that she actually knows him personally?
If she does know him, then I really hope Howard Shore does the music for the 'The Hobbit', and that he chooses Hayley to sing a song or 2 on the soundtrack!
I don't know how well Hayley knows Howard Shore but I know they have met. I can't locate it right now but we have seen a picture of them together somewhere.
I don't know how well Hayley knows Howard Shore but I know they have met.
Hasn't Hayley performed with Howard Shore and the Lord of the Rings Symphony at one point?
thanks for translating it Stephany!! I especially like the part about Hayley being his Princess of Light!
If so, she has already worked with two of the best film composers of all time in my opinion. It would be great if she could add Hans Zimmer to the list.
Where, when, and for what reason did she perform with Howard Shore?
It's good to know that he's aware of her and how good a singer she is, so hopefully he will choose her to sing on the soundtracks.
According to "World At Her Feet" Hayley performed a concert in Times Square, New York in late 2003 in the "Good Morning America" studio and Howard Shore was one of the audience. Apparently they had lunch together afterwards and he also attended her debut at Joe's Pub. They shared an agent for a while - does anyone have further details on this?
This is very interesting Libby but we are starting to be seriously off-topic now.
Please feel free to open a new thread on Howard Shore or The Hobbit if you think it might interest some members.
I dont know the details Stephany, but this sounds very much like what I heard about her concert in Houston- back in 2005 I suspect. I do know that there was an LOTR theme and that she did the all of the sopranos parts from the score at that concert.
Whoops, that was a bit off-topic, wasn't it? Horrors!
Well, the Howard Shore part wasn't really off-topic, because she did mention it in the interview.
I suppose I could post the link to that article in a new post, but since it doesn't really have anything to do with Hayley yet, maybe I won't. Oh, yeah, I could put in the "Off-topic" board.
Hayley clearly had high hopes for how her participation in The New World might raise her profile stateside. Not that she thought it through with this much calculation, but an academy award nomination for best song might have meant Hayley singing live at the Oscar broadcast to a huge American audience. The Award telecast is typically the most watched non-sports program in America every year. Malick's decision must have been a devastating jolt.
Just imagine where Hayley would be standing today on the world stage if Malick had not dropped "Listen to the Wind"; if the song had won its likely Oscar; if the likely scenario described above by socalboy had occurred. What a blow that axing was to Hayley's career!
So, right on, Martin D, with your comment!
Just take a look at the posts here - - !

John Philip Sousa Memorial Concert - 1932 January 15 2013, 1 Comment
Jack Kopstein April 17th 1932 Unquestionably there have been numerous concerts over the years to memorialize the great John Philip Sousa, but none more celebratory in his memory than the concert held at Constitution Hall in Washington on Sunday April 17th 1932. The concert was held under the auspicious of the American Red Cross and was the annual American Bandmasters Association concert. The performers included three of the top service bands of the American Forces-The United States Army band, The United States Navy band and the United States Marine Band. What certainly made this concert of everlasting historical significance, was the number of distinguished composer -conductors who appeared and led the bands in introducing new band music. Sousa had passed away on March 6th 1932 and the performance was a major undertaking to organize and advertise in tribute to him. Originally, Sousa was to have conducted his newest creation Leaves from my Notebook. The eminent composer Gustav Holst was to premiere his work Hammersmith, which he had dedicated to Walton O'Donnell, director of the BBC military band. Holst was in the United States to lecture in composition at Harvard University on a six month contract. Holst was suddenly taken ill prior to the concert and the first performance Prelude and Scherzo of Hammersmith was conducted by Captain Branson Taylor, leader of the United States Marine Band. A further premiere was conducted by Branson with the introduction of Ottorino Respighi's Hunting Tower ballad written especially for the concert. Hunting Tower remains as the only piece written by Respighi for concert band. Canadian composers Captain Charles O'Neill and Lieutenant JJ Gagnier conducted the United States Army Band in new band compositions, O'Neill's Overture in F Minor and Gagnier's The Wind in the Leafless Maple. Both O'Neill and Gagnier did not appear without some difficulty. O'Neill was the director of the Royal 22nd Band in Quebec City, and Gagnier was the director of a militia band, His Majesties Grenadier Guards Band in Montreal. Both were up against the Canadian Army who were operating on a penny-pinching budget in the depression era. They would not pay for the music directors to attend the conference. Lt Colonel "Tommy" Burns (Later Lt General), who was stationed in Quebec, got wind of the situation and they were granted train and accommodation expenses (1). Nathaniel Shilkret, well known composer and musician, composed a special tone poem, Skyward, in honor of the occasion. Shilkret had been associated with Sousa as he conducted the Sousa band for their recordings by Victor Talking Machine Company. It is also noted that Shilkret was an accomplished clarinettist and may have played clarinet with the band on numerous occasions from 1923 to 1925. (2) Victor Grabel arranged the Chopin Funeral March which he conducted on the concert. The finale was a set of four of Sousa's greatest marches with the massed bands and conducted by Walter M. Smith of the Boston-based Smith's Band , Herbert L. Clarke, Frank Simon and the illustrious Arthur Pryor. Much of the music performed on the concert never made it into print and remained in manuscript form for several years. Gustav Holst's masterpiece for band, Hammersmith, was not premiered in its published version until 1954. The programme follows: 1. Fantasie "Midshipman" (New) ……Peter Buys United States Navy Band –conducted by the composer 2. Bolero…………………………………………..Maurice Ravel United States Band conducted by Lieut. Charles Benter 3. A Chinese Festival (New) ………………..Maurice Arnold United States Navy Band conducted by Austin A Harding 4.

Dallas Winds Sousa Roster lists Peter Buys as arranging for Sousa until 1931. This says 1918 – presumably when he resigned. Buys himself claims that he did arrange for Sousa, yet JPS IV says "No!." Also a big "No!" from UI Sousa Band Librarian in an Instrumentalist article. Can you reconcile?
I am preparing a paper for publication.

For this project we worked with the James Madison University Athletics marketing department to take the JMU Women's Basketball team campaign and create a :30 broadcast and digital commercial that complimented and played within the direction of the campaign. Working from the concept of the team being lifelong basketball players and fans, we filmed with area student players to help show the through line between athletics at a young age and at a collegiate level.

At some point after I moved to Berlin in 2015, I learned of the gigantic and easily accessible bubble. Berlin's winters are cold, but what I find more difficult to endure are the endless string of gray days. T.I. seemed like a gigantic SAD lamp, a tropical Truman Show. I'd wanted to go to, but when I solidified plans to move back to the U.S, my mission felt increasingly urgent. And that's how I ended up stripping down on a Thursday morning amongst families with young children, retirees, and a surprisingly large number of thirty-something couples.
Ocean Beach is the site of a historic single-screen movie house; The Strand Theatre, which opened in November 1925. In the late 1970s, the Strand survived with midnight showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show on Friday and Saturday nights. By the early 1980s it was running pornographic films. Community reaction forced it to change back to regular films.[23] It closed in the 1990s[24] and was converted into a clothing store after several failed attempts to preserve it as a theater.[citation needed] The theater was designated a historic building by the San Diego Historical Resources Board in December 2002.[25]
What is it about the islands that make life better? Is it the tropical breeze coming in from the ocean? Is it the sound of the waves crashing on the shore? Maybe its the laid back vibe or the perfect sunset that you see no matter what island you are visiting.When I think of our times in the islands, nothing but perfection springs to mind. All the complications and stresses of life completely melt away in the tropical heat and are instantly replaced by the tranquility of a deserted beach or seaside cabana.
It's no surprise that the Maldives tops your list of best islands to snorkel. A chain of 26 atolls and over 1,000 islands in the Indian Ocean, it's the world's most geographically dispersed of countries, and can't be beat for underwater exploration. Seeing as each island is barely the size of a small estate in the Hamptons, we're hard-pressed to pick a top spot, but consider the Anantara Kihava Villas Maldives your first stop.
While the two-piece swimsuit as a design existed in classical antiquity,[8] the modern design first attracted public notice in Paris on July 5, 1946.[9] French automotive engineer Louis Réard introduced a design he named the "bikini", adopting the name from the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean,[10][11] which was the colonial name the Germans gave to the atoll, transliterated from the Marshallese name for the island, Pikinni.[12]
It's all about doubling your pleasure when you go to this private Brazilian spot, and no, we aren't talking about a threesome post-Carnival. This private island is actually two islands connected by a bridge. Two houses, two decks, two times the fun. The property is on Ilha Grande, a 15-minute crossing by boat from Portogalo and two hours from Rio. The main house rocks four bedrooms, the smaller house two, and there are five canoes on site for all of your paddling needs.
OB is a boho beach community, so what else can you expect but dive bars, right? Winstons Beach Club is your place for live music—usually some sort of cover band in the Dead/Reggae/Jam band vein. Comedy shows are also regularly scheduled there. The Catalina Lounge is your popular, friendly dive bar, as is the Tilted Stick. The Arizona Cafe has cleaned up its act and is now a cool hangout with pool tables and big TVs for watching sports.
It is a single location dive. A dive the late afternoon during the light and then we come up as planned just before the sunset. We watch the sunset, a Keys favorite, and then prepare for the second dive. Once dark, we dive the second dive to witness an amazing transformation of the reef. New species coming out of the coral, new activity all around, and even surface bioluminescence that you will be delighted to see. It's a new world down there and you will be one of the few lucky ones to see it all happen in front of you.
In Hawaii, green sea turtles, known locally as honu, are revered, believed to be the embodiment of guardian spirits. They're also thought to be good luck — funny because they're found on every Kona beach. In the water, sightings of this reptile are super common in the town of Kailua-Kona at Kahaluu Beach Park, a tiny bay with minimal waves. Or try the site Two Step, a 30-minute drive south of town. Here, you'll meet turtles, as well as schools of yellow tang, butterfly- and surgeonfish, plus seals and dolphins.
The Virgin Islands are divided into the U.S. Virgin Islands, which are comprised of St. Croix, St. John, and St. Thomas, and the British Virgin Islands, made up of Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada, and Jost Van Dyke, along with numerous smaller islands and cays. All are part of the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean. On the U.S. side, St. Croix is the charming, historic, culturally diverse island, St. John is the favored eco-friendly destination, and St. Thomas is the chic and sophisticated island. On the British side, the islands are less developed, but more exclusive, catering to wealthy luxury travelers and sailing enthusiasts.
Archaeologist James Mellaart described the earliest bikini-like costume in Çatalhöyük, Anatolia in the Chalcolithic era (around 5600 BC), where a mother goddess is depicted astride two leopards wearing a costume somewhat like a bikini.[8][26] The two-piece swimsuit can be traced back to the Greco-Roman world, where bikini-like garments worn by women athletes are depicted on urns and paintings dating back to 1400 BC.[27]
Ocean beach is a beach. It is located in San Diego. I took my family and 3 of my closest friends here for a good old BBQ. The bathrooms smelled like fowl urine from the homeless folk but I still enjoyed eating my sandwich next to them. They asked me for a bite and politely declined. I wish all homeless folk were this nice however, that is not the case. The beach itself also has dog feces everywhere but I like dogs :)
This Vedic island has one of the most distinctive cultures in the world. It's incredibly popular with digital nomads, backpackers and expats. If you are interested in meditation, yoga and exploring new possibilities, this is the place to live your fairy tale. There are ancient temples everywhere, beaches and surf that stretches for miles, mist-draped mountaintops and breathtaking rice terraces.

If a trip is canceled by Fury Water Adventures for any reason, every effort will be made to reschedule the trip during your stay in Key West. If you are unable to reschedule, you will have the option of receiving a voucher for a future trip or receiving a full refund. Every effort will be made to run tours, as advertised. Should Fury have to amend or alter your tour due to extraneous circumstances, tickets remain non-refundable on tours taken.
Some of the most relaxing vacations mean finding a secluded spot where you can unplug from the stress of modern life. The Cook Islands is a secluded paradise with welcoming people, great dancers, drummers and singers, with strong Polynesian traditions and culture that make visiting the islands so memorable. The largest island and the home of the capital Avarua, is Rarotonga. Avarua is famous for its fascinating churches made of white coral, and don't miss the islands Saturday market. Northeast of Rarotonga, visitors to Atiu may want to learn about the local "moonshine" known as tumunu at a local bush beer school. Neighboring Mitiaro stands in water 14,750 feet deep and has white coral streets lined with bright orange Pumarumaru trees. Although it is surrounded by coral reefs and is home to many underground caves and lakes, Ma'uke is known as "the garden island." Finally, the second largest and oldest island is Mangaia, a beautiful location known for its fossilized coral, otherwise known as "makatea."
Hard to get to, but well worth the effort, the Bazaruto Archipelago of Mozambique keeps us visiting and dreaming. Barely 22 miles off the east coast of Africa, this group of six islands (Bazaruto, Benguerra, Magaruque, Bangue, Shell, and Santa Carolina) continue to top our "must-visit" list of places in the world. The entire area was declared a National Park in 1971 and hosts a plethora of snorkel and dive opportunities.
Rent equipment before you go to the beach, and give yourself time to adjust it and get used to it. Practice putting on your mask. Adjust the strap so it is lightly snug, but not tight. With a light inhale, your mask should suction to your face. That is what mostly holds it to your face. Now the snorkel. How does it feel in your mouth? Is it pulling awkwardly? Normally you can adjust the angle and height of your snorkel. You can adjust where it attaches to your face mask strap. And on some models you can rotate the soft silicone bottom for a better angle to your mouth. Practice putting on your fins.
The bikini remains preferred by most players[185] and corporate sponsors.[177] US women's team has cited several advantages of bikini uniforms, such as comfort while playing on sand during hot weather.[186] Competitors Natalie Cook[187] and Holly McPeak[185] support the bikini as a practical uniform for a sport played on sand during the heat of summer. Olympic gold medal winner Kerry Walsh said, "I love our uniforms." According to fellow gold medalist Misty May-Treanor and Walsh it does not restrict movement.[177]
To date, all national and international standards on snorkels specify two ranges of tube dimensions to meet the health and safety needs of their end-users, whether young or old, short or tall, with low or high lung capacity (See Figure 1 and Figure 2). The snorkel dimensions at issue are the total length, the inner diameter and/or the inner volume of the tube. The specifications of the standardisation bodies are tabulated below.
thailand in phuket maybe got around 20m but very urban area …..to teach sax you basically going to have to set up your own little teaching studio long term and your internet requirements are really going to limit you to very specific larger urban islands… believe me I've been learning about this the hardway , like I said my wife needs half way decent internet to work , we moving to a house in the jungle on Morro de Sao paulo in Brazil….you can get internet there , but try pinning down the one install guy on the island who has to shlepp down there to install it…..and my wife's Brazilian so theres no communication barrier….if you can't communicate in these places with such specific needs you really going to get fustrated quick. Make sure to bring at least two months cash to live off (at least) til you get everything sorted out
Surfing was introduced to San Diego at Ocean Beach in 1916 when a local lifeguard borrowed a board from Duke Kahanamoku (although it's possible that George Freeth surfed there between 1907 and 1909).[14] By 1966, the sport was sufficiently established that the World Surfing Championship was held in O.B. Nat Young won the event and was named world surfing champion.[15]
After making sure your equipment works and fits, do a test run. Get used to breathing out of a snorkel. Swim around a pool if necessary. Get used to the feeling first. If you are in a beach, start by swimming around the shallow area before plunging into the deep. By practicing, you are getting yourself used to the feeling of swimming around and breathing through the snorkel. Remember to always keep the top of the snorkel afloat. If water comes in, you can easily blow the water out.
Effect on Health	Effects of breathing compressed air such as decompression sickness, nitrogen narcosis, oxygen toxicity, refraction and underwater vision.	Greatest danger is not being spotted by jet skis & crafts, as a diver is often submerged under water with only a tube sticking out of the water. Contact with poisonous coral, dehydration and hyperventilation. Sun burn is also common with long hours.

Resisting the Urge to pick blackberries!
Alas this year, we are not going to pick the berries in such vast quantities as we normally do. With our forthcoming move, we are trying to reduce the quantity of wine that we have stored in bottles and demijohns (No easy feat drinking so much). I am sure that we will have a few days out in the countryside picking blackberries for pies and crumbles.
We are hoping that where we are going will also have an abundance of blackberries as blackberry wine is, in our opinion, the most scrumptious of homemade wines.
2014 Blackberry wine ready to be bottled!
BLAAND: GOAT'S WHEY OR COW'S WHEY?
With my recent interest in making Blannd, I did wonder how using different types of whey would influence the outcome of the Blaand. What would be better? Whey from goats milk or cows milk?
There is a big difference in the flavour of cheese from the two types of milk, largely due to the size of the fat molecules and the lactose content. Goats milk has smaller fat globules than cows milk, it also has a lower lactose content.
The lactose can not normally be fermented by yeast, hence a higher lactose level may well result in a sweeter Blaand. Well, that is my theory anyway.
Yesterday, we decided to set up an experiment to see the difference see the difference between Blaand made from goats and cows whey.
We followed the same recipe for Blaand that we used to make our initial batch of goats whey Blaand - recipe found here.
We extracted the whey in the same method and added the same quantity of sugar (1,5kg) to each batch.
24 hours on, they are both fermenting away well. I will add further updates as the two gallons ferment!
Blaand, an old Norse drink that was at one time popular in the Scottish highlands and islands, frequently made before the demise of cottage cheese making. Like all good recipes, the details of how to make this drink were held close to the chests of those who made it and passed down through the generations.
Blaand is a fermented drink made using the whey left over after cheese making, as the recipes were passed down orally, finding information on how to make it on line are sketchy at best. Any one interested in home brew has to marvel at old methods of drink making, and an unusual drink offered to drinking companions is always worth a shot at making.


On this day, the eve of Thanksgiving, I wanted to remind everyone of all of the reasons why Thanksgiving should be more than just "Turkey Day". We all look forward to eating "till we can't eat no 'mo", but the true reason for this holiday is more than just food and football.
It's easy for us to be preoccupied with preparations, cooking, traveling, etc. but I ask that you take a moment to count your blessings. Consider what God has done for you throughout the year. How have you thanked Him in return? There are so many reasons to give thanks. Me? I'm thankful for my life, my family, my friends, for deliverance, healing, forgiveness, and mercy - too many to list in this post.
I'm thankful for so much, and as I pray today, I want to remind you all that not everyone is able to celebrate as we are - so don't forget what God says about why we are blessed. We are blessed to be a blessing to others, and giving unto others is giving thanks to God.
I wish you all a Happy, Healthy and Safe Thanksgiving.

Misty Butterflies Dwarf Pincushion Flower (Scabiosa columbaria 'Misty Butterflies') in Edmonton Ft Fort McMurray Saskatchewan St Albert Alberta AB at Arrowhead Nurseries Ltd.
Misty Butterflies Dwarf Pincushion Flower features unusual blue pincushion flowers with lavender overtones at the ends of the stems from late spring to early fall. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its deeply cut ferny leaves remain grayish green in colour throughout the season. The fruit is not ornamentally significant.
Misty Butterflies Dwarf Pincushion Flower is an herbaceous perennial with tall flower stalks held atop a low mound of foliage. It brings an extremely fine and delicate texture to the garden composition and should be used to full effect.
Misty Butterflies Dwarf Pincushion Flower will grow to be only 6 inches tall at maturity extending to 12 inches tall with the flowers, with a spread of 12 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 10 inches apart. It grows at a fast rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years.
Misty Butterflies Dwarf Pincushion Flower is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor pots and containers. It is often used as a 'filler' in the 'spiller-thriller-filler' container combination, providing a mass of flowers against which the larger thriller plants stand out. Note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden. Be aware that in our climate, most plants cannot be expected to survive the winter if left in containers outdoors, and this plant is no exception. Contact our store for more information on how to protect it over the winter months.

American Higher Education in Transition
Ronald G. Ehrenberg
vol. 26, no. 1, Winter 2012
(pp. 193-216)
(Complimentary)
American higher education is in transition along many dimensions: tuition levels, faculty composition, expenditure allocation, pedagogy, technology, and more. During the last three decades, at private four-year academic institutions, undergraduate tuition levels increased each year on average by 3.5 percent more than the rate of inflation; the comparable increases for public four-year and public two-year institutions were 5.1 percent and 3.5 percent, respectively. Academic institutions have also changed how they allocate their resources. The percentage of faculty nationwide that is full-time has declined, and the vast majority of part-time faculty members do not have Ph.D.s. The share of institutional expenditures going to faculty salaries and benefits in both public and private institutions has fallen relative to the share going to nonfaculty uses like student services, academic support, and institutional support. There are changing modes of instruction, together with different uses of technology, as institutions reexamine the prevailing "lecture/discussion" format. A number of schools are charging differential tuition across students. This paper discusses these various changes, how they are distributed across higher education sectors, and their implications. I conclude with some speculations about the future of American education.

The news that Lewisham's Model Market returns tomorrow for a whole half-year was so vital to Londoners that it trended last night on Twitter.
And deservedly so. It was, after all, one of the highlights of the summer, partly due to the surprise factor of its dilapidated location: eight cute "micro-diners" occupy characterful peeling former outlets, offering all manner of (mostly unhealthy) temptation, from hot dogs and tacos to a BBQ grill.
You can either sit sedately in, restaurant-style (a la Brixton Village), or gobble it down en plein air yard to a lively soundtrack (The Cure's Lullaby sounded particularly fine blasting out on a lively Saturday night).
Flyer details for the market.
And the crowd's a mix, too: young families with kids crawling about, half-chewed bun in paw; students and hipsters smoking rollies; Saturday night funsters guzzling cocktails; and thirtysomething couples, cooing over their shared plates. As the night-time descends, a younger scene moves in.
Be prepared this year for even longer snaking queues, especially for top streetfood purveyors like Spit & Roast, Rola Wala (we loved their deliciously sweet beetroot, coconut and paneer daal), Mother Flipper (genuinely superlative burgers) and one of our absolute favourites, Bill Or Beak: try the "Beak", crammed with juicy grilled chicken, an anchovy dressing, and topped with garlic and rosemary croutons, capers and parmesan. Delish.
And let's hope the team can this year resolve the odd ongoing downside: on Saturdays the most popular dishes were often fast running out by 8pm on many stalls, with almost every outlet empty by 9 or 10pm. And the draft microbrewery lagers and ales were snapped up very quickly too, with the only option then being far inferior bottles of Moretti, or dreary Red Stripe in cans.
So the only real solution is to get there early and tuck in. Although, if you all do that, hell, it'll be even busier.
Model Market Lewisham runs every Friday and Saturday night from this weekend until October 3rd. Entrance £3 after 7pm.

La géologie de la région de Bryce Canyon dans l'État américain de l'Utah est marquée par le dépôt de sédiments de la fin du Crétacé et au début du Cénozoïque. Ce sont ces dépôts qui ont créé les paysages actuels visibles dans le parc national de Bryce Canyon. L'érosion de ces dépôts a créé au fil des années des hoodoos et d'autres merveilles géologiques.

À cette époque, la région aujourd'hui en général aride était recouverte par une sorte de mer intérieure reliée au golfe du Mexique. Au fond de cette mer se sont accumulés du sable et de l'argile en provenance de cours d'eau mais aussi du calcaire en provenance des organismes peuplant cette mer. Ce mélange de sédiments offre aujourd'hui toute une palette de roches colorées dans le parc. La formation géologique principale dans le parc national se nomme formation de Claron.

D'autres formations géologiques se sont également constituées durant cette période, mais celles-ci ont pour la plupart été érodées totalement et ne sont plus visibles actuellement. L'érosion a débuté au moment de l'orogénèse du Laramide qui a vu la création plus à l'est des montagnes Rocheuses. Ce soulèvement de la croûte terrestre, causée par le mouvement des plaques tectoniques et débuté il y a environ 70 millions d'années, a séparé la zone de l'océan tout en élevant les plateaux de la région à des altitudes proches de  mètres.

Les formations géologiques du parc appartiennent au Grand Staircase. Les plus vieilles formations sont visibles dans le Grand Canyon, les moyennement âgées sont visibles dans le parc national de Zion et les plus récentes dans Bryce Canyon. Le parc est situé sur un haut plateau dénommé plateau de Paunsaugunt.

Grand Escalier

Les roches de Bryce Canyon sont 100 millions d'années plus jeunes que celles visibles dans le parc national de Zion et encore plus récentes que celles visibles dans le Grand Canyon. Durant chaque période différentes couches de sédiments se sont superposées, les plus anciennes se trouvant sous les plus récentes. Cette superposition de formations géologiques est dénommée Grand Staircase (littéralement « Grand Escalier ». Les géologues, en étudiant ces couches de roches, peuvent retracer près de 2 milliards d'années de dépôts. La formation de Bryce Canyon est la plus récente toujours visible vu que celles situées au-dessus ont été érodées depuis longtemps. On peut donc considérer que les roches du parc de Bryce Canyon constituent la dernière page visible de l'histoire géologique de la région.

Crétacé

Avancée de la mer

Au Crétacé, une mer peu profonde recouvrait une partie de l'Amérique du Nord entre le golfe du Mexique jusqu'au sud de l'Utah et même jusque l'océan Arctique à l'extrême nord. Cette mer est dénommée Cretaceous Seaway ou Western Interior Seaway. Cette mer divisait en deux l'Amérique du Nord. À l'est se trouvait l'ancienne chaîne de montagnes des Appalaches et à l'ouest les Montagnes Sevier formées par l'Orogénèse Sevier. Au fil du temps, le niveau de la mer varia et la zone fut tantôt sous les flots et tantôt émergée. Les couches de la région sont ainsi une succession de couches de dépôts marins et de dépôts de poussières non marines. L'arrivée de la mer dans la région est marquée par la présence d'un mélange d'argiles, de sables riches en fossiles d'animaux marins. Cette couche est dénommée « grès du Dakota ». Elle est la plus ancienne (et la plus profonde) dans le parc de Bryce Canyon tandis qu'elle est la plus jeune dans le parc national voisin de Zion. Cette couche, présente surtout dans le Dakota du Nord et le Dakota du Sud, est riche en bois pétrifié, en fossiles d'huîtres et en charbon. Ces sables, vestiges d'anciens lagons et d'anciennes plages, sont visibles dans la vallée de la rivière Paria à l'est de Bryce Canyon. L'argile, déposé au sommet de la couche géologique du Dakota et visible dans le parc, est d'une couleur gris foncé à noir. Il s'agit probablement de la formation géologique la plus riche en fossiles de la région.

Retraite de la mer
Alors que la mer commençait à se retirer vers le sud-est, une nouvelle couche de sédiments fut déposée. Ces dépôts ont donné naissance à la formation de Straight Cliffs. Cette formation sableuse est de couleur jaune-gris et peut contenir des dents fossilisées de requins. Par la suite, une fois la mer retirée, les seuls sédiments déposés furent ceux apportés par les cours d'eau. Cette couche porte le nom de formation de Wahweap. Cette formation contient des fossiles d'animaux vertébrés dont des dinosaures et en particulier des hadrosaures.

Dépôts continentaux

Plaines inondables et érosion

Une plaine inondable, traversée par des rivières et parsemées de lacs, s'est ensuite développée dans la région. Du sable et de la boue se sont accumulés durant cette période pour former la formation de Kaiparowits. Épaisse d'environ  dans la région du parc, elle présente une profondeur plus importante dans d'autres régions. Cette formation peut être recouverte par endroits par celles de Canaan Peak et de Pine Hollow bien que celles-ci soient absentes dans le parc national de Bryce Canyon. Toutes ces couches géologiques issues du dépôt de sédiments fluviaux datent du Paléocène.

L'orogénèse du Laramide, qui est à l'origine des montagnes Rocheuses, se déroula en parallèle de la fin du Crétacé au début du  Paléocène. Cet épisode eut pour effet de soulever une partie des dépôts précédemment accumulés sous les eaux.

Systèmes de lacs et plaine inondable de Claron

L'orogenèse stoppa un moment durant l'Éocène. De nombreuses inondations importantes eurent lieu à cette époque laissant d'importants dépôts de sédiments. L'oxydation du fer contenu dans les boues est à l'origine de la création d'un oxyde de fer dénommé hématite. Ce minéral donne à la boue une coloration rougeâtre. Ces boues sont à la base de la formation de Claron qui permet aux hoodoos présents dans le parc de présenter de telles colorations. La partie inférieure de cette formation, que l'on appelle membre en géologie, est moins riche en oxydes de fer et est de ce fait de couleur plutôt rose. Ce membre porte le nom de Pink Cliffs (littéralement « Falaises roses »).

Du Paléocène au milieu de l'Oligocène, un important système de lacs peu profonds s'étendait au nord-ouest du Colorado, au sud-ouest de l'Utah et du Wyoming. De nombreux sédiments furent déposés pendant près de 20 millions d'années. Les lacs eurent un niveau plus ou moins élevés ce qui causa une succession de dépôts marins ou secs parfois riches en calcium, parfois pauvres. Cette époque se retrouve dans la formation sous forme d'une couche blanche. Ce membre de la formation géologique de Claron est dénommée « Membre blanc » et est composé de fossiles de coquillages marins.

Les couches géologiques plus récentes ne sont plus visibles dans le parc mais à d'autres endroits des couches montrent que des dépôts provenant de poussières de volcans ont été déposées dans cette partie de l'Amérique du Nord.

Dernier mouvement tectonique du Cénozoïque

Formation des hauts plateaux

Les nouveaux dépôts qui suivirent furent rapidement enlevés sous l'effet de l'érosion accélérée des zones soulevées par le mouvement des plaques tectoniques. Un dernier mouvement eut pour conséquence le soulèvement de la partie occidentale du Plateau du Colorado. Cette région fut ainsi découpée en neuf sous plateaux dont le plateau de Paunsaugunt qui englobe le parc national de Bryce Canyon. Ce soulèvement a élevé le plateau de plus de 600 mètres par rapport aux vallées qui bordent son flanc occidental et son flanc oriental. Ces vallées sont aujourd'hui drainées par la rivière Sevier à l'ouest et la rivière Paria à l'est. Le plateau sépare depuis le bassin hydrographique du Grand Bassin à l'ouest du plateau du Colorado à l'est.

Formes des roches

L'érosion du plateau de Paunsaugunt entraîne la formation de différentes formes géologiques appelées murailles, arches et hoodoos en fonction de l'avancement de l'érosion des roches. La couche géologique qui constitue la partie supérieure du plateau est faite d'une formation géologique (la formation de Claron) composée de roches sédimentaires et calcaires assez friables.

Le plateau se rétrécit dans un premier temps pour former une sorte de mur assez étroit. Ce mur commence alors à se trouer au niveau de ses points faibles et des arches commencent à apparaître. Avec le temps, ces arches vont grandir avant de se rompre. Il ne reste plus alors que deux piliers de chaque côté que l'on appelle hoodoos.

Les arches peuvent avoir un diamètre qui varie entre 1 et  dans le parc. Cette ouverture dans la roche n'est pas formée par le passage d'un cours d'eau mais uniquement par l'usure des roches à cause des précipitations, du gel et du vent, la gravité faisant le reste. Le phénomène le plus important dans le parc est le gel. En effet, les précipitations liquides entrent dans les roches et lorsque le gel apparaît, l'eau se dilate et fait littéralement exploser les roches par endroits. Dans le parc, ce phénomène peut se produire jusque 200 fois chaque année.

Les hoodoos ont des tailles variant de 1,5 à . Les roches qui constituent la formation de Claron datent du Paléocène ou de l'Éocène (40-60 millions d'années). Elles sont essentiellement composées de calcaire mais aussi d'un peu de sables et d'argiles. Ces roches sont les vestiges de dépôts de sédiments qui se sont accumulés au fond d'une mer intérieure aujourd'hui disparue. La couleur des roches provient des différents minéraux inclus dans celles-ci. Vu que la roche est en grande partie calcaire, elle se fait également éroder par l'acidité des eaux pluviales. Les hoodoos résistent mieux que la roche qui les entoure parce qu'il dispose d'une couche supérieure plus résistante faite de magnésium. Les hoodoos ne sont pas éternels, alors que de nouveaux apparaissent, les anciens disparaissent. On calcule que l'érosion avance de 0,6 à 1,3 mètre tous les 100 ans.

L'épaisseur des hoodoos n'est pas constante ce qui les différencie d'une simple colonne et ce qui leur donne des formes si différentes. Les plus fameux possèdent un nom propre comme le « Marteau de Thor », « Reine Victoria » ou « E.T. ».

mixedbag April 9, 2015 May 27, 2016 No Comments on Snack Time is Bear-y good!
My daughter, M, loves food. She has never been one to fuss over meal times (at least, not yet!). I really lucked out with her! Though she happily eats whatever I make her, every once in a while, I like to jazz things up for her. So I made her teddy bear toast for her snack yesterday.
I made cinnamon-honey butter (recipe below) for the bear's face and used blueberries for its eyes and nose. You could use black raisins too.
Mix these three ingredients well. Slather on toast and enjoy! You could even shape the remaining butter into a log and refrigerate it. Use it on your pancakes, scones or croissants. Bear-y yummy!

Best Black Metal
Top black metal bands, the best black metal music reviewed and rated.
What is Death Metal music ?
Posted in Death Metal	by Éric Durant
Death Metal is a Heavy Metal genre, emerging itself at the beginning of the eighties, and always as popular in the Heavy Metal scene as of today. The Death Metal movement find its origins in the USA, particularly near Florida, although we can include other important scenes around the USA (New York notably) and others less important around the world.
Death Metal, as well as Trash Metal and some forms of progressive metal are some of the hardest varieties of Heavy Metal, and maybe of all music with Jazz, Blues and certain forms of classical musical, to play and produce.
The diverse genres of Death Metal, going from technical death metal to progressive death metal, and including slam death metal or deathgrind, make it a very intriguing musical genre.
Death Metal is not only a very technically challenging form of music to play, it is also a very difficult genre to compose properly.
Death Metal music
Origins of Death Metal
Unlike Black Metal, there are no distinct and official Death Metal waves. Yet, we can easily retrace the history and evolution of Death Metal music throughout the ages.
The pioneer bands which really contributed to the creation of this Heavy Metal genre are Necrophagia, Obituary and Morbid Angel. I recommend you maybe look for some of their albums, to see what "first wave" Death Metal was about.
Another major influence was the band Death, which can be label as the pioneer of modern Death Metal. But the true influence of this genre was the release of the Death Metal demo, in 1984, by the band Possessed.
In the early nineties, bands acknowledged a more modern playing style and structured musical genre for Death Metal. More modern bands include Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation and Cephalic Carnage.
With the arrival of the "second wave" bands also came a wide variety of Death Metal sub-genres, including Deathgrind and Progressive Death Metal.
Death Metal musical style
In Death Metal, the most common lineup is a combination of a vocalist, one or several guitarists (as the Lead Guitarist and Rhythm Guitarist), a bassist and a drummer. The roles and characteristics of each musicians are of the following :
Death Metal Vocalist : The Death Metal vocalist will, at least in theory, use exclusively Death growls. Death growls are a form of vocalization where the musician grunts, expiring (or inspiring) air through his lungs. It is highly discouraged to use the throat to achieve that kind of sound, at risk of irritations or lesions in that area. Although most Death Metal groups are trying to sound the heaviest possible, often at the point of being unintelligible to listeners unfamiliar with the lyrics, some bands prefer sacrificing the heaviness in favor of music and words easier to understand, which is the case in certain groups of technical or melodic Death Metal.
Death Metal Guitarist : To be able to maintain a heavy sound and atmosphere, the guitars are generally tuned in C, which is two notes down compared to the original and traditional tuning. D and B tunings are also present, sometimes used respectively in the Melodic / Technical and the Brutal Death Metal sub-genres. As in Black Metal, heavy distortion is very present and sometimes seems greatly exaggerated. Also similarly to Black Metal, techniques such as tremolo picking or Palm Muting are commonly used. Death Metal riffs are often extremely complex, especially in Brutal / Technical bands, and require not only great precision but also great speed since the tempos are very high. Finally, it is not rare to see long and complex guitar solos in most forms of Death Metal.
Death Metal Bass : The Death Metal bassist often has a role of great importance, as we are very far from a musical style where the bass is just following the guitar as in Black Metal. The bassist often plays differently than the guitarist, and sometimes even solos, or openings. Similarly to the guitar, the bass is often tuned in C, to bring a heavier sound.
Death Metal Drumming : The role of the drummer in Death Metal is once again essential. Not only does Death Metal drumming require great speed, but it always requires a mastery of complex sound structures. Drum patterns are generally quite complex, and their drummers frequently use methods such as blast-beats, gravity rolls, gravity blasts and others.
Death Metal example : Dying Fetus
This is a very good song from the death metal band Dying Fetus.

Ceremonial Castings, black metal band
Posted in Black Metal	by Éric Durant
Ceremonial Castings is a Black Metal band formed in 1996 by Lord Serpent and OldNick. Producing Symphonic Black Metal, they are often recognized and accepted by other notorious artists.
Their two major album were produced respectively in 2005 and 2006, under the names Immortal Black Art and Barbaric is the Beast. Ceremonial Castings has also released many demos, as well as no less than 7 quality full-length albums.
Ceremonial Castings is one of the top black metal bands ever, and one of the best currently active today. More recently they have also released a re-issue of some of their previous albums.
Ceremonial Castings – Symphonic Black Metal
The music produced by the Black Metal band Ceremonial Casting characterizes itself by a predominant musical style composed of symphonic Black Metal. The synthesizers are used to add atmosphere, but not relied upon as in bands like D-emo Borgir or Satyr-emo.
Despite the loyal following that this band has received from 1996 to today, Ceremonial Castings remains an underground Black Metal band. They are even mentioned in my top 10 Black Metal Bands list.
They themselves name their music as Deathphonic Black Metal, which can be qualified as Symphonic Black Metal with a few Death Metal elements, notable in some albums.
During their evolution, Ceremonial Castings various their playing style quite a few times. In their first releases, the dominant musical atmosphere was more of a raw and blizzard-like Black Metal, in the style of bands like Frost Like Ashes, accompanied with some symphonic elements. While in their further releases, the band Ceremonial Castings showed some more structured and melodic song-writing abilities. Their last album to date, 1692 is one of the most experimental Black Metal masterpieces to date, combining some Symphonic Black Metal with Avant-Garde elements.

Von – Satanic Blood
Posted in Album	by Éric Durant
Von is certainly the Black Metal band with the most interesting history. Not only did they set the landmark for what was later to become traditional second wave Black Metal, but they also contributed to the progress of Black Metal music, especially with their Satanic Blood demo.
As said by many, if it wasn't for Von, Black Metal wouldn't even exist.
Maybe you have already heard some of these tracks from the 2003 compilation Satanic Blood Angel, as they are also available on that album.
Von Satanic Blood album review
Although officially Satanic Blood is only a demo, it is regarded as if it was a full-length album. And not any album, as it is now widely accepted as one of Von's greater efforts and one of the best Black Metal albums of all times.
Recorded soon after Venien's departure, this album was released in 1992 which makes it one of the earliest Black Metal projects.
Whilst Satanic Blood can best be described as raw and atmospheric Black Metal, it is not the slow-paced atmosphere of ambient Black Metal bands like Xasthur or early Leviathan, it is a cold and brutal atmosphere that fits the mood of an ancient torture chamber full of despair.
The vocals are pure and chaotic, everything you want to hear in Black Metal music. Despite the fact that Goat uses here some low-pitched growls which is mostly uncommon in this genre, they fit the music perfectly.
The guitar work is brilliant. Goat has once again managed to create a dark and macabre atmosphere with simple yet catchy and hypnotic riffs.
The drumming is minimalist, which fit perfectly the mood of the album once again.
Surprisingly enough for an album this gruesome, the lyrics are obscure and almost cryptic. A beautiful contrast with the brutality of the music, especially on the track Watain :
"Lucifer killed his unborn child
So he may be a victim of circumstance
Undone evil
The wicked child lays in shallow, crowded graves
This unholy place is where the black sacrifices are performed
Here is where He kills…
Satanic Blood track by track review
Devil Pig – 5/5
Devil Pig starts of with a dark combination of distorted guitars with a gruesome blast-beat. Goat's vocals seem to pop up randomly on an irregular interval, breaking the monotony of the song yet adding to the macabre atmosphere. After a little more than a minute and a half, a diabolic solo kicks in : it is both beautiful and cruel. Then it comes back to the original riffs, and it goes on for the rest of the song.
Veinen – 4.5/5
Then comes Veinen (not to be confused with Venien). A complex and raw riff starts the song out, and soon Goat's vocals make their apparition. They are more structured and add a dark feeling to this song. Close to the two minutes Goat switches from the growls to the "clean" singing. The result is bizarre and disturbing. A mini-solo kicks in, and it's back up to the first riff to finish the song.
Watain – 4.75/5
Watain is probably one of the most notorious songs of this album, unfortunately not my favorite. The riffs are more complex then on the two previous, but still as minimalist and brutal. The drums too are more technical and diverse. Unlike the two previous tracks, Goat seems to growl during the whole song, with the exception of the magnificent solo near the two minutes mark, which will also serve as outro.
Lamb – 5/5
Next comes Lamb, a very minimalist track which is also one of my favorites.
It starts out with a single riff accompanied by a drum fill. After the first thirty seconds there is a slight riff variation, the blast-beat kicks in and Goat starts to growl.
After the first minute stands another brilliant solo, that perfectly blends into the atmosphere of the song.
Veadtuck – 5/5
This track is not even classic, it's above classic. It's legendary.
Veadtuck is probably the track on which the most riff variations occur. It is also a full-instrumental track, if you exclude the first ten seconds. While still maintaining the macabre mood of the album, there are several dark riffs than follow each other, until the blast-beats kick in and accompany the song to the end.
Satanic Blood – 5/5
Legendary.
Satan fertile.
There are quite some bands following Von that tried to produce songs containing a single riff, they all failed miserably (Black Metal ist krap as an example).
If the song is not technically challenging, it must have demanded a great deal of instincts to produce something of this ilk.
Christ Fire – 5/5
Another dark track composed of very few riffs, all more demonic than the other. There are very slight guitar and drum variations, but all under the same demented atmosphere. Near a minute and a half, Goat speeds up and starts a short yet chilling solo to reinforce the mood of the track.
Von – 5/5
Minimalism at its best. If you don't get Black Metal atmosphere you may walk right past it, but if you do enjoy the dark melodies of bands like Von, this track is pure gold.
Goat's vocals are sick as ever, especially near a minute and a half where he sounds like a demented hound barking aloud.
Satanic Blood final score : 93 / 100

Von Goat – Septic Illumination (2010)
Von Goat Septic Illumination
1. (Intro) Clay Jackals
2. The Gathering
3. Thru Your Skull
4. My God Your God
5. (Intro) Syringes
6. Syringes
7. (Intro) Black Wall System
8. Spiders
9. (Intro) Poison
10. Poison Bottle
11. Voodoo Word
12. Private Horror
Release shortly before the phenomenal Von Goat Disappear, Septic Illumination is the debut album of Von Goat.
Somewhere between the raw and grim Satanic Blood Angel and the experimental Disappear, this album marks a defining point in Black Metal history. This is second wave Black Metal at its top level, mixing aggressive grimness and contemplative atmosphere with perfection.
Review of Septic Illumination by Von Goat
Not only is this album unarguably on of the best Black Metal releases ever produced, it is also a brilliant display of macabre in all its splendor. Septic Illumination is the first full-length album by the Black Metal band Von Goat, and one of the finest Black Metal release of all times.
Although this album contains no less than twelves massive Black Metal tracks, only four of them would suffice for this album to get five stars.
You could easily pick 4 tracks randomly out of Septic Illumination call that an album, and it would still be considered a black metal masterpiece.
Von Goat should be crowned king of Black Metal, for this release alone (let us not even talk about the following masterpiece, Disappear).
Septic Illumination final score : 89 / 100

Von Goat – Disappear (2011) Black Metal Album
Von Goat Disappear
1. Disappear
2. Immortality
3. Catacomb
4. Dark Forces
5. Desecrate
6. Sweet Revenge
7. We Dive
8. Intercourse
It is not an understatement to proclaim that early 2010 was one of the most active years in Black Metal history, similar to the early nineties. With the return of the more than legendary Von ; the solo debut of Von Venien, one of founders of Von ; and finally the release of Septic Illuminations, a beast of an album by Von Goat.
To mark this new age even further in blackness, Von Goat released a new album in June 2011 : Disappear. Imagine that, the return of Von and the release of one of the best Black Metal materials since Satanic Blood.
Review of Von Goat – Disappear
The history and events surrounding the legendary Black Metal band Von are, to say the least, intriguing and complex.
After the departure of the bassist Venien in 1990, the future of the band was uncertain. Yet Goat, Snake and later Kill were to release in 1992 what was to become the most influential Black Metal album of all times : Satanic Blood.
Since the reforming of Von in early 2010, two solo projects have emerged from the hands of the very founders of Von : Von Goat and Von Venien. These new projects have offered several releases of great quality, yet none rivaling with the 1992 landmark album. None except one.
Disappear sounds nothing like anything previously encountered in the Black Metal scene. With the return of Goat and the arrival of Blood, many would have assumed that they were likely to return to their roots deep in the second wave of Black Metal, wave they themselves founded.
In reality, Disappear marks a clear departure from anything Von Goat, or any other band, has ever attempted.
Musically, the whole album is pure ritualistic blasphemy. It sounds like Satanic Blood being passed through a meat grinder.
This is not a trendy second wave hippie album that you can headbang to, Disappear is a cold, mechanical and malevolent ride through the devastated abyss of hell. Having nothing to do with the trendy "ice and frostbitten" work, Disappear has an atmosphere of its own.
Beyond the raw and atmospheric aspect of the album, it is very technical and challenging.
Goat's guitar work is absolutely brilliant, producing cold melodies and subterranean riffs to interact with a brutal and very tribal atmosphere.
The drumming of Blood is as always, utterly beast-like. Not only as fast as imaginable for an extreme metal drummer, but also far more creative, Blood at the image of this album surpassed anything ever attempted in Black Metal.
Last, but by no means least, comes the vocals by Goat. Once again, his vocals sound nothing like what he delivered on Satanic Blood, nor like anything around today.
Disappear final score : 91 / 100.

Belstaff announces partnership with Ineos Grenadier
By Danielle Wightman-Stone
British heritage brand Belstaff has been named the official outfitter to Ineos Automotive's new forthcoming, 4x4 vehicle named the Grenadier, which has been designed to be capable, durable and reliable while handling the world's harshest environments.
Full details of the partnership are to be unveiled in the coming months, however, Belstaff added that the design brief of the new 4x4 Grenadier rang "true" with their ideals, as Belstaff has been creating durable and dependable clothing for adventurers and athletes, sailors, motorcyclists, aviators, and military personnel for almost a century.
Belstaff chief executive Helen Wright said that the partnership underlines the brands' synergy: "Journeys have always been an intrinsic part of the Belstaff world. We've been outfitting adventurous spirits – from motorcycle legends and sporting icons, to movie stars and revolutionaries – since 1924.
"As official outfitter to Ineos Grenadier, our shared commitment to quality, innovation and modern utility is the natural starting point for an enduring partnership."
Ineos Automotive states that the Grenadier project started after identifying a gap in the market, abandoned by a number of manufacturers, for a utilitarian off-road vehicle, designed to meet the demands of its future owners for a rugged, capable and comfortable go-anywhere working vehicle.
Commenting on the design of the Grenadier, Toby Ecuyer, head of design on the project, added: "We set out to design a modern, functional and highly capable 4x4 vehicle with utility at its core. A design that is 'easy-to-read', with no ambiguity about the Grenadier's role in life. There to do everything you need, and nothing you don't. Nothing is for show. Modern engineering and production techniques ensure the Grenadier is highly capable, but we have been able to stay true to the essence of creating a utilitarian vehicle that will stand the test of time."

The leather scraps are trims that combine to create a unique blend of color shades, textures and grains - giving each product within the collection its own personality.
Paired with 100% waxed cotton canvas, this collection evokes a timeless elegance to its pieces you can use on any travel occasion.
This collection is comprised of 100% waxed cotton canvas and paired with upcycled buffalo calf hide. Any of the leather or chevron stitched components are upcycled. As a result we were only able to do limited runs of this collection.
The upcycled leathers are either scraps generated from the factory's production cycles, deadstock, or "lower selection" raw hides which would be otherwise cast aside by brands and customers.
"Lower selection" are classified into b-grade, or c-grade leathers. These leathers are not lower quality but are cast aside as lower selection because they contain scars and other natural defects. Often, because of these flaws, these lower grade leathers become unusable for any tannery and are thrown out because they are rejected by the tannery's regular customers.
Think of how unfortunate-looking vegetables are cast away before they are sent to the grocery store. Even though they are perfectly fine, they are often thrown out because of it's visual flaws and defects. The TRMTAB initiative helps the tannery at Prachi Leathers utilize some of their lowest selections of raw hides.
