Miami Beach Bike Lanes and Beachwalks
Bike Lanes and Beachwalks Pave the Way for Miami Beach's Growth and Expansion | Fort Mill Times - Fort Mill, SC: " Infrastructure improvements are taking place all over Miami Beach in a bid to continually upgrade and improve the city for visitors and residents alike. It is a construction geek's dream, dozens of ongoing projects dotting the Miami Beach landscape and bringing new life to streets, parks, main thoroughfares, tennis courts, piers, parking garages, bridges and tunnels. "Our capital improvement programs have grown through the years with improvements meeting the needs of our residents and raising the bar for our visitors," says Jeff Lehman, Chair, Miami Beach Visitor and Convention Authority. "Miami Beach is already an international destination but as our ongoing and major construction projects prove, we are always striving to be bigger on the world stage. Miami Beach is like no other place in the world and the level of private and public infrastructure investment across all channels prove how globally desirable our city has become.""

Miami Beach homes face teardown or preservation
In Miami Beach, homes face teardown frenzy or preservationist zeal - 12/22/2012 | MiamiHerald.com: " . . . with nearly 2,500 pre-1942 homes left on Miami Beach, that leaves a lot of room for friction with homeowners if the Miami Design Preservation League aggressively pursues its new agenda. Kinerk, the league official, said one of founder Barbara Baer Capitman's last directives before dying in 1990 was that the league should focus on preserving single-family homes. He said that while cities like Coral Gables have crafted laws to do so, so far Miami Beach has failed. "We have failed Barbara's directive so far," he said. "It's embarrassing." Kinerk said the league will act quickly to try and designate residential homes historic in order to try and avoid after-the-fact fights like the ongoing battle with the Hochsteins. He said an important home worth saving should be protected regardless. "When should we act?" he asked. "When they're all gone?""

Haitian Food!--
Best Haitian Restaurants In Miami (PHOTOS): "Much like South Florida's much-covered Cuban fare, Haitian incorporate similar tropical tastes and flavors but with more distinct African and French influences. Whether it's the standard-fare appetizers like deep-fried pork called griot (pronounced "GREE-yo") and flattened, fried plantains called banane pesée, or a meal of kidney bean rice and chicken topped with fresh-cut onions covered in sauce, if you're familiar with the tastes of Pollo Tropical, Haitian cuisine will not be too far removed from your palate. But if you're not, be prepared for a taste infusion like one you've never experienced. Check out some of the top Haitian restaurants in Miami . . . "

Seattle looks to Miami for success in art
One measure of success---how others see you:
Seattleites look for success at Miami art fairs | The Arts | The Seattle Times: "When the Affordable Art Fair visited Seattle Center last month, the organizers were keen to point out that our city had not hosted an art fair for many years. So imagine this: Last weekend, in the adjoining cities of Miami and Miami Beach, which even between them have a smaller population than Seattle, you could have visited any one of 24 art fairs all happening at the same time. What these fairs showed almost exclusively, and sold in huge quantities, was modern and contemporary art, or art of the 20th and 21st centuries. As a rule of thumb, the newer the art is, the more of it you'll find in Miami. At the heart of all of this activity is what many in the art world consider the largest and most important art fair in the world — Art Basel Miami Beach (ABMB), which comprises temporary booths occupied by 250 of the world's most successful galleries and attracted 70,000 visitors over five days. . . . There was, however, a significant Seattle presence in Miami last week, though to find it you had to take a step down the fairs' hierarchy. . . . The final measure of success at an art fair is almost entirely commercial. What sells, in this context, is the very measure of what is good. Thus the necessary third element in the Miami mix alongside dealers and artists is the huge international community of art collectors that it attracts. A lot of these people like to keep their heads down, but there were probably more Seattle collectors in Miami last week than Seattle artists and dealers put together. . . ."

Art, design, and business blend beautifully in Miami | SmartPlanet: " At 11:45 AM on a Saturday, lines were forming in front of the Miami Beach Convention Center and the crowd's excitement was growing. They had shelled out $42 each to attend a much-hyped event, and the eclectic crowd — from mothers pushing strollers to nattily dressed older gentlemen to twenty-something hipsters in skinny pants — were anxiously awaiting for it to begin. Only this wasn't a concert or a sporting match. It was an art fair: essentially, a trade show in which row after row of cube-like booths are filled with paintings or sculptures that often cost six figures. It wasn't just any old art fair: it was Art Basel Miami Beach, a 10-year-old annual convention that showcases work by contemporary artists. The most recent edition opened on December 5 and closed on the 9th, and drew more than 250 top art galleries from 31 nations around the world – up from about 160 in 2002. That's despite growing competition in similar trade-show style art events around the globe. . . . "

The preservation board will have to decide whether or not the building has any historical value to the area. The board received a Miami history lesson at the hearing with different preservationists taking them back in time and talking about the area, back in the 1940s, when it was home to department stores, and then into the 1960s, when the building was built. They spoke specifically about the architectural style of the building, which is known as the Miami modern style or MiMo for short, which has become significant to South Florida. . . ."

Fashion Brands at Art Basel Miami Beach
Fashion Brands Take Over Art Basel Miami Beach | Artinfo: "Art Basel Miami Beach isn't just about the art. Every year, a number of fashion names descend on Miami to join in the festivities. And with a plethora of well-dressed celebrities, socialites, gallerists, and models in town, it makes perfect sense. On December 5, the Art Basel Miami Beach fashion games begin when Interview magazine and Laure Heriard Dubreuil, co-founder of the hip luxe Miami boutique the Webster, host a special viewing of Valentino's Pop Pois collection on the store's roof. Later that night, a film made by photographer Bruce Weber forDior Homme will be premiered at the Moore Building in the Design District at a party with W magazine. And finally, Chanel will sponsor Art.sy's annual Beachside Barbecue at the Soho Beach House. . . . "
Memo From Miami | Design Now - NYTimes.com: "you couldn't turn a corner in the big white Snarkitecture-designed tent without bumping into a piece by Jean Prouvé or Jean Royère, not to mention all the Parisian galleries themselves. I did enjoy looking at the furniture that was part of Le Corbusier's design for the Indian city of Chandigarh at Patrick Seguin's booth, or a drab-looking metal screen, designed by Prouvé for a gymnasium, which was expected to fetch six figures at Jousse Entreprise. Suzanne Demisch of Demisch Danant made a case for her (New York) gallery's solo show of Pierre Guariche, whom she said was "a big part of French design history" but who had been "overshadowed commercially" by his aforementioned 1950s peers. Still, if the consensus was that this year's fair seemed stronger than the previous six, no one was giving the Gauls all the credit. It's likely that Design Miami owes a good bit of its increasing cool factor to all the contemporary work on view this year. . . ."
Michael Kaiser: Miami Arts on the Move: "Owing to a series of coincidences, I have spent a great deal of time in Miami over the past year. I have completed a two-year teaching program for arts managers of 60 local organizations, I have been consulting with YoungArts, a national organization that gives talented high school students remarkable opportunities to learn and develop and I have been working with Miami City Ballet to create a sustainable financial foundation. In every case, I have been excited and energized by the artistic community in Miami. When one lists the ten largest arts organizations in the ten largest cities in the United States, one notices that Miami is not home to the biggest arts organizations in the nation. Only one, the Adrienne Arsht Center, has an annual budget larger than $30 million. But one should not read too much into these statistics. Miami's arts organizations seem to be on the move, energized by the growth of the city and the diversity of the population. Unlike in many other cities, where the arts are suffering and trying desperately to hold on to audiences and donors, many arts organizations in Miami believe their best days are ahead of them. . . .

Contrary to what most of you who voted in the poll believe, I have not yet started my next knitting project.
The correct answer will probably be that I will start my next project after I've finished Deli completely. I will likely finish knitting the edging at some point tomorrow, Friday, so I'll have plenty of non-commuting time to sew lace. The only reason I would start the tennis sweater early would be if I needed it for commuter knitting, but I won't need that 'til Monday.
Last night I set in the sleeves on Deli and this evening I sewed the side seams.
So far, so good. There were a couple of questions in the comments asking how I was attaching the lace edging to the sweater. Just plain ol' mattress stitch, using the yarn. I'm very pleased with the results. And it looks even better after a gentle steaming with the ol' iron. The photo I posted yesterday was apres steam iron.
Stephanie in NZ (nice to hear from you again, btw!), I didn't do anything to the lace before seaming — just pinned it to the edge, being careful not to stretch it.
If I remember, I'll try to get some "action shots" over the weekend of lace sewing in progress, but it's really nothing special. Just mattress stitch.
On sale at Ann Taylor.
In the comments, Susan mentioned the bolero in the new Vogue Knitting. That pattern is the reason I decided to buy the magazine. I have four skeins of La Luz in "Vanilla Bean" that will be perfect for that pattern.
But I do have to point out that I was busily picking out four more skeins of La Luz at Knit Happens before I remembered that — duh — I already had a bunch.
Tomorrow (April 1) is my blog's three-year anniversary. I think I need to break out the dark chocolate and margaritas in celebration.
I Can Knit for Miles and Miles and Miles . . .
Correction: I'm going to have to knit for miles and miles and miles to finish the friggin' lace edging for Deli.
I've knitted the two pieces of lace to edge the sleeves. And am currently working on the huge honking piece of lace that will edge the body of the sweater.
I did sew the lace to the sleeves to see how it will look. Not bad — I like it.
I've joined the shoulder seams on the body, so perhaps I'll take some time out from the interminable lace knitting tonight to do some more sewing.
I gotta say — I sort of have my doubts about this sweater. The body of it right now is a soft, floppy mess. Hopefully after setting in the sleeves and sewing up the side seams it will take on some semblance of structure. I imagine it will. The knitted fabric is quite soft and the whole thing is looking shapeless at this point. We shall see.
Although I am doing some whining about the amount of lace I have to knit, it's really quite fun and easy. The lace has a 4-row pattern repeat and is dead-simple. Easy to memorize. But the lace gauge is about 7 rows/inch and I need well over 100 inches of it, so that's a heck of a lot of lace. Still, if I work on it exclusively, I'll have it done in a couple of days.
Speaking of exclusively . . .
So. How long do you think it will be until I cave and start it?
I talked about my wee mini Aero needles yesterday. Ann, in the comments, mentioned that she has a set of the full-size ones. I do too — I bought mine in London circa 1985. They came in a red zippered vinyl case and had included a couple of cable needles, row counters and stitch holders. I think.
I haven't used any of these needles in years (though I do use the accoutrements that came with them, which is why they are no longer with the needles) but I used to use them exclusively. I can't remember when I switched over to circulars almost exclusively. Early 1990s, I guess.
But I do love my mini Aeros. They come in handy a lot!
Yesterday I made a comment about having swollen aching hands. This week they have been. Swollen and aching, that is. Monday and Tuesday my fingers felt like fat little sausages when I was jamming my rings on them in the morning. But today they are back to normal, so go figure. It could have had something to do with the incredibly wet nasty weather we have been having. But we can't complain about the weather today — it's beautiful!
You can see how happy Lucy is about it!
I just read a post from the owner of Knit Happens on the knitting review forums that the Rowan Cottoncash DK is snapping for people. Are you having any problems with it? I ordered some but am thinking of returning it if it isn't very sturdy.
Okay, I've had absolutely no problems with this yarn snapping. But inquiring minds want to know, so I conducted an experiment. I cut a piece of Cashcotton approximately 16 inches long. With my hands about 4 inches apart, I pulled on it. I could not break it. (Remember, however, that I am an old lady with swollen aching hands.) I slowly moved my hands further apart, and when they were about 8 inches apart on the yarn, I could pull it apart, with some effort.
It didn't "snap," it just pulled apart.
Given the composition of this yarn, it doesn't really surprise me that you can pull it apart with some effort. I've had absolutely no problems knitting it. BUT. . .
I have been knitting plain stockinette and doing simple increases and decreases. No cables, no ripping out and re-knitting. Nothing that would put undue stress on the yarn. Also, I'm a pretty relaxed knitter — I don't do a lot of pulling on yarn as I knit.
So . . . your mileage may vary!
Alrighty then. Deli's body parts are done and it's on to the lace! The neverending lace. The lace that would not die. The lace from the Black Lagoon. The lace that ate Tokyo.
They are Aero brand needles, metal, made in the U.K., and they are about 6.75″ long. I have a set of these, in sizes 2.75mm through 4.5mm. I bought them ages ago from someone at a TKGA convention. They have their own little needle roll.
I love them to distraction. They are great for knitting small stuff like lace edgings and catnip mice.
I promise I'll post a photo of Lucy in her new bed that shows her blue eyes when I can get her to pose nicely, looking at the camera. That might take some treats and coaxing though. Stay tuned.
Gotta say, this is my speediest visit to Sleeve Island in a while. I'm coming down the home stretch on Deli's second sleeve.
I'm not sure why these sleeves have zipped by so quickly. Usually, mind-numbingly boring stockinette takes forever. Maybe it's the weather. The cabana boy on my Sleeve Island is wearing a raincoat and slogging through the pounding rain. Not so much fun, you know? Makes you want to knit fast and get off the island.
What's up next for this sweater is the endless lace edging. I've been thinking all along that I would knit the lace directly on to the sweater, but I'm having a change of heart, and I plan now to do it according to the pattern: knit the edging separately and sew it on. Why?
The lace goes on the bottoms of the sleeves, and the bottom of the sweater, up one side front, around the neck, and down the other side front. So the ratio of one row of knitted lace to the edge of the sweater will change. You have a certain number for the stitch gauge (along the bottom edges and the back neck) and a different number for the row gauge (along the side fronts) so the ratio of rows of lace edging per edge stitches will change. And you know what? I am so not into figuring it out. This is, I think, a case of making things harder for myself. So I shall knit the frigging edging separately and sew it on. The end.
Wasn't that a poem by Robert Browning? No, that was My Last Duchess. Okay, here's my version.
Will't please you sit and look at her?
For I feel as though she's not near felted.
Still a mite too large.
Another cycle in the hot water wash.
Okay, so I'm not a poet. I finished the kitty bed last Tuesday, and ran it through three cycles to felt it, then popped it on top of a large cylindrical object (in this particular case my Tupperware pie carrier with a beach towel wrapped around it).
On Friday I took it off its felting form and plopped it on the table to scrutinize it critically. It still seemed a tad large to me. I turned away for a moment, and when I turned back, this is what I saw.
Clearly, the expert pronounces it usable. But just out of spite, I ran it through another wash cycle.
. . . is worth a thousand words.
We're having a lazy weekend. Lucy roused herself for just a minute.
But it's grey and rainy outside. Great sleeping weather!
I've got both the side fronts of Deli done at this point. And one sleeve.
I just this minute cast on for the second sleeve. If I don't drop off asleep, I'll do some knitting on it this afternoon.
Do you guys remember Carly, who made a guest appearance here last fall, wearing her dogasaurus sweater?
Carly would like to know if she can come to Lucy's tea party.
Going back to Still Life w/ Tote Bag: 1) Which earphones are you using with your iPod; and 2)What's become of his sweater?
Second question first. Irving only wears his sweater when it's cold outside. I was told that keeping the battery warm prolongs battery life. When it's warm outside, I don't think the sweater is necessary.
I got a pair of Bose headphones for use with Irving. They are not the noise cancelling headphones, but are the Triport model. Why didn't I get the noise cancelling ones? I listen to Irving on my commute. If someone along the way yells "Oh my god, everyone get down! He's got a gun!" or something like that, I want to hear it.
You may think I'm making light of this, but I'm serious. Stuff you don't want to have to think about, but really need to. Sad, ain't it?
I'll think about it later. Right now, time for a nap!

Hi, my name is Greg. I have been out of a job for 15 months. It hasn't been easy being and staying positive. I look at different job sites, fill out applications, have a few interviews, but nothing seems to work. I'm qualified for most of the positions, but no one wants to hire me. I wonder … what am I doing wrong? Why won't they hire me? It is hard to stay positive. Some people think you are lazy and don't want to work.

THE GRIT
03/04/2009Ian Chaddock No Comment
The hottest band in the U.K right now to combine punk, ska , rockabilly and more – THE GRIT are the real deal. With new album 'Straight Out The Alley' out next month on People Like You, you can also sample them on a free CD from April 22nd with this month's Big Cheese magazine. (www.bigcheesemagazine.com)
VLP:How and when did the Grit get together?
"Me (Louis Ville, guitar) and Big Lou (vocals) moved to London in 2002 and started The Grit then, but the band didn't really take shape until 2004 when little man kurt (double bass) joined the band. It was around 2005 when the band became an established touring band, releasing records and shit like that!"
VLP: So what's different on the new album?
"We went a bit more full on with our influences in styles other than Punk rock, delving into ska, rockabilly and country, and we've experimented with new instruments in the tracks- brass, mandolin, Uke etc. But it's still essentially a punk rock album, and better than the last album!"
VLP: What bands do you look to for influences?
"It's wide ranging really. We'll always look to The Clash for inspiration, plus old favourites like Johnny Cash and Hank Williams, and then you've got more recent influences like The Slackers, Rancid and Kings of Nuthin'."
Where can we see the Grit next?
"The Underworld in London on May 10th, and then around the UK throughout May. Check our myspace details for more! Cheers!

How Can Xylitol Gum Help Prevent Tooth Decay?
Tooth decay, also commonly referred to as dental caries, is the result of acidic conditions in the mouth, due to bacterial activity. These conditions lead to the outer layers of the teeth slowly being dissolved, which can eventually lead to holes in the teeth (cavities) in serious cases. To combat this, xylitol gum has been suggested as a potential preventative measure – but is this backed up by scientific research?
Tooth decay affects a larger number of children in the US than any other chronic disease. Worldwide, it affects an estimated 5 billion people, and caries preventative programs are lacking in developing countries; the World Health Organisation estimates that more than 90% of cases of dental caries in developing countries are left untreated. I made this graphic for Sweet Bites, a team of 5 University of Pennsylvania students, who are entering this year's Hult Prize with an idea they hope will combat dental caries in the slums of India.
Sweet Bites' idea is a public health campaign using 100% xylitol chewing gum to combat tooth decay. Obviously, before agreeing to help them out with creating a graphic to help their campaign, I wanted to look into the science behind the use of xylitol to combat tooth decay. Although xylitol was discovered by French and German chemists back in 1890, research into its benefits in preventing tooth decay didn't really commence until Finnish chemists started investigating it in the early 1970s, and since a large number of papers have been published regarding its effects with respect to tooth decay.
Xylitol is a polyol, a carbon-based compound with multiple hydroxyl groups. It's found in low concentrations in a wide range of fruits and vegetables; industrially, it's produced from a compound called xylan which is extracted from either hardwoods or corncobs. Xylan can be hydrolysed, and subsequently hydrogenated, to produce xylitol. Xylitol is widely used as a sugar substitute, as it's as sweet as sugar, but contains 33% fewer calories. It's commonly used as a sweetener in chewing gums in place of sugar – and its use could also have other benefits.
A number of field studies on the use of xylitol gum versus other types of gum show that it can have caries preventative properties. One study, published in 1995, carried out a 40 month study in approximately 1700 schoolchildren in Belize, and found that, compared to other types of gum, xylitol-containing gum reduced the incidences of tooth decay. A 2006 review by the American Dental Association also came to the conclusion that 'the evidence is strong enough to support regular use of xylitol-sweetened gum as a way to prevent caries', and a further review in 2011 reinforced this recommendation.
As it turns out, both the xylitol and the gum itself are important contributors to a caries preventing effect. Unlike sugar, xylitol can't be broken down by bacteria in the mouth to produce energy; it can therefore prevent their growth and reproduction. The act of chewing gum itself can also combat tooth decay, as it leads to the production of saliva; this, along with the physical act of chewing, can help remove food debris from the mouth which could otherwise be fermented by bacteria. Additionally, it's been suggested that xylitol can slightly increase the alkalinity of saliva, which boosts its ability to neutralise the acids produced by bacteria that can otherwise lead to decay.
In the interest of balance, it's worth pointing out that a 2010 review of xylitol suggested that a greater number of randomised, controlled trials are needed in order to clarify the magnitude of the effect that xylitol has in preventing tooth decay. A trial using xylitol lozenges in ~700 adults in 2013 observed an 11% reduction in tooth decay, but this reduction was not deemed clinically significant. However, the authors of that study also note that their trial was carried out in areas where subjects had access to fluoridated water supplies, which can also help prevent tooth decay, and also may not be relevant to xylitol's effect in younger populations.
What isn't in doubt is xylitol's effect on bacteria: a randomised controlled trial examining bacterial response to xylitol gum established that bacterial levels were ten times lower after six months of chewing gum containing 6-10 grams of xylitol. On this basis, the authors suggested that 5-6g of xylitol per day in the form of gum would be effective, and this is the amount that the Sweet Bites team are promoting. They plan to crowd-fund to raise the money to sustain their project, though if they do go on to win the Hult Prize's £1,000,000 prize fund then they're likely to be set to achieve their goal of reducing tooth decay rates in India even quicker.

Fashionable houses and residences range in design and primary construction, however they share a typical attribute-limited area. The standard idea of what a typical house is has since developed. Now, once we consider a house we don't simply see in our thoughts's eye the normal thought of a roomy home the place every occupant has his or her personal bed room. In city facilities, folks's houses are two or three-room residences the place the youngsters share a bed room or items in high-rise buildings with pocket gardens and customary areas for recreation.
When designing a house, you will need to contemplate longevity-whether it should stand the take a look at of time. A few of the components that should be thought-about are the standard of the supplies used, the general design, and the placement. Though it's tempting to comply with dominant developments, there's a must train warning. Some developments simply turn into outdated. As well as, it is usually necessary to maximise the inside area and supply allowances for future enlargement.
Customization is one other necessary consideration. As an alternative of going for ready-made cupboards that take up an excessive amount of area, having personalized cabinets and storage areas made is not going to solely save loads of sq. footage, however lends the inside larger flexibility. Creating extra storage, as a lot as might be squeezed out of the present out there space-also will increase the general worth of the property.
The selection of coloration is one other primary consideration, particularly if there's a plan to promote the property sooner or later. Daring colours could flip heads, however impartial colours have larger attraction to potential patrons. In in the present day's market, houses with impartial paint colours have comparatively increased resale worth.
Due to the area restrictions, one of many largest challenges for inside designers is to offer options for studio residences and items the place the sleeping and residing areas are very a lot intertwined. Because the area doesn't enable for the addition of extra partitions, designers face the problem of offering occupants with a personal area, whereas nonetheless allotting an space to obtain guests. With a purpose to present the occupants an area that's snug and practical on the similar time, inside designers face the problem of selecting design parts and furnishings that permits the residents to maneuver and performance seamlessly given the overlapping area.
Maybe, one of the necessary concerns in fashionable houses is the utilization of pure mild. A house that showcases pure lighting is usually perceived as having constructive attributes. Other than sure specs in development that maximize the entry of sunshine from the skin, some inside décor options exploit pure lighting higher than others do.
Lastly, fashionable houses which can be situated within the busiest city areas can nonetheless be reworked into havens of consolation, quiet and leisure with a number of inside modifications that enable for the upkeep of a sustainable indoor backyard. Within the arms of a reliable inside decorator, out of doors areas with wholesome greenery can be blended seamlessly with the inside of the house.


Market EDM is a very visual tool, which makes it easy to use and implement. It also makes it easy to jump into an implementation or upgrade without fully planning the scope of the project and how each phase fits in with your financial organization's end goal. This can lead to inconsistencies in workflows, architecture, and development as well as difficulty onboarding new team members to the project.
So how do you build a team that speaks a common language, approaches repetitive tasks in the same way, and ensures that each phase of a large project builds upon the previous phase while working towards the next one? By diagramming.
Consistency of repetitive steps within tasks. Many of the data management tasks Markit EDM performs for financial firms include repetitive steps that are also used in other data management and analysis tasks. Diagramming a task used by many different processes, such as ingesting a Bloomberg file, allows the firm to come to agreement on how to process the data. That process becomes the standard for the firm and ensures that whenever a repetitive task is used in any process, that particular step is done exactly the same way. When the time comes for upgrades or maintenance, workload is reduced because every developer understands how the firm conducts that step of the process whenever it is done.
Consistency of coding style and architecture. Just like there are many ways to say something in writing, there are also many ways to write code. Diagramming ensures that all developers on a team are approaching their coding work in the same way. In addition, diagramming the development process ensures that certain procedures will be followed. These agreed-upon procedures can help ensure that important steps, such as code reviews, are not skipped during the development process.
Understanding the full scope of a project. It is easy for team members to lose sight of the end goal in a multi-phase, long-term project. This is particularly true if team members are involved in some phases of the project and not others. Diagramming can help a team understand a large, complex project which ensures that each phase of the project is completed in such a way that the next phase can build upon the completed work. See how we helped an offshore team coordinate multi-phase Markit EDM implementation.
Diagrams are easy to build, help your team speak a common language and increase your chances that work is done right the first time. For an implementation as critical to your financial services firm as Markit EDM, the up-front time is well worth the investment.

Her Name is Bond, Heather Bond
Heather Bond is a rising talent who has managed to excite an entire industry as her career ascends to the stratosphere.
Bond drew attention in 2009, when she released her debut EP "Walk Alone." She is self-described as piano-pop, but the Nashville based artist manages to insert just enough organic material into her music that it preserves, if only a dash, of Americana in its bones. Her toes dig deep into American soil as she writes with a specific sense of acerbic wit that absolutely drips from every song on her new album entitled "So Long." The songs are desperate passion plays to past heartbreak, loneliness, and nostalgia for a time in Bond's life that clearly seems to have gone by the way side.
She is about to launch a tour in support of her new album "So Long," which was released on September 18th. The Louisville show is going to be the official release party for her new record and should be an astounding performance to punctuate all of the hard work and passion that she has put into the writing and recording of the album. The album itself is already garnering fanatical reviews from music publications and bloggers all over the country.
