Gray hairs on head is related to older age, and women really hate their appearance. It really feels disgusted when you have grey hairs on head but we do have many options to go for. It is not necessary for one to go for chemical treatments. Normally what I have seen is that they usually dye their hairs but now we have natural home remedies to darken your hair colour.
The causes of hair greying are several. Here we have listed out a few common causes.
So your first course of action for successfully treating gray hair is to start taking a good liquid colloidal mineral supplement such as these. Colloidal minerals contain ALL the minerals your body needs in a highly absorbable form.
copper also makes an excellent external treatment for reversing grey hair. Simply soak a couple of cotton balls with colloidal copper, apply to the scalp and massage/rub in.
Be sure to also supplement with black strap molasses as this is rich in essential vitamins and minerals (many people swear by this supplement as a natural remedy for grey hair), along with the very powerful Fo-ti herb, which actually translates to "black-haired Mr. He" (black haired man) in Chinese. This herb has been reported to reverse grey hair very quickly for many people (you can read some positive testimonials here). With Fo-ti, you can either take supplements, buy it as a tea, or actually buy the root and make your own tea everyday.
In addition to these, cereal grasses such as wheat and barley grass are an excellent source of vitamin A and the B group vitamins along with copper, iron, silica and zinc and should also be supplemented with everyday.
Add some potato shells in water, and cook them for 30 minutes. Afterwards, remove the shells from the pot and using a brush, apply this brown liquid on your hair.
For better results, this treatment ought to be repeated several times.

Q: List rows after specific date I have a column in my database called "dob" of type datetime. How do I select all the rows after a specific DoB in SQL Server 2005?

A: Simply put:
SELECT *
FROM TABLE_NAME
WHERE
dob > '1/21/2012'

Where 1/21/2012 is the date and you want all data, including that date.
SELECT *
FROM TABLE_NAME
WHERE
dob BETWEEN '1/21/2012' AND '2/22/2012'

Use a between if you're selecting time between two dates

A: Let's say you want to get all records from a table called Table_One with a datetime column called date_value that have happened in the past six months...
CREATE TABLE (
  date_value DATETIME
)

SELCECT *
FROM Table_One
WHERE date_value > DATEADD(month, -6, getdate());

This gives a bit more dynamic of a solution.

Research has found that provinces that allow pharmacists to administer flu shots have a higher vaccination rate as opposed to jurisdictions that prohibit such practices.
The study looked at almost half a million people aged 12 and older over a seven-year time period and found that while percentages of influenza vaccinations declined on a whole, the provinces that allowed pharmacists to administer the vaccine showed a moderately higher rate of vaccination at 30.4 percent compared to 28.2 percent in regions that did not allow pharmacists to administer the shots.
Although the data reveals a fairly minor difference in flu shot rates, what is important is that the practice of allowing pharmacists to administer these vaccines may aid in better understanding of the dangers of having the flu without being vaccinated, and promote better overall health behaviours and practices such as frequent handwashing and respiratory etiquette.
In order to increase vaccination awareness, the authors of the study also stressed the importance of potentially offering immunizations to children in school.
Jurisdictions that currently allow pharmacists to administer flu shots include British Columbia, Alberta, New Brunswick, Ontario and Nova Scotia.


When a spinal vertebra shift out of alignment, it may put damaging pressure on the spinal nerves causing interruption to the vital nerve flow within your body, This condition is referred to as VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION. Between the spinal bones, called vertebrae, are nerves which transport messages from the brain to all organs, tissues and cells in the body. When the vertebrae are subluxated, the nerve passageway is blocked, and the Ute energy flowing through the nerve can be choked off. Any spinal imbalance will cause areas of the spinal column to work harder in order to compensate for the area that is out of balance. This interferes with your body's innate healing ability and lowers your resistance.
Only 10% Of Your Entire Nervous System Carries Or Perceives Pain, Up To 90% Can Be Heavily Stressed Without Any Alarms, Whistles Or Bells! Vertebral subluxation is commonly referred to as the "silent killer because there are usually no early warning symptoms. Since your spinal cord (which carries your brain messages) runs inside the spinal column, it stands to reason that the spinal column has the greatest opportunity to interfere with the power of your nerve flow. In fact, that's exactly what does occur. Imagine the twenty-four moveable vertebrae which make up the spinal column (including the skull. sacrum and pelvis) undergoing continuous pressure from gravity. Then add tension from prolonged or unusual patterns of sitting and standing, Go further and consider the strain from walking, exercising, or mild to significant injuries sustained. Now let's compound this whole thing with the stress that comes from personal, professional and emotional tension. If that wasn't enough, it's also well known that chemical toxicity from foods, medications and the environment cause reflexive stress to your spine. It's a wonder that healthy vital messages from the brain ever get to the body at all!
If this condition is not corrected, your organs and glands cannot function properly and this can create abnormal body chemistry, disease and accelerated deterioration.

With Thanksgiving around the corner, visions of sweet potato casseroles, stuffed turkeys, and pumpkin pies are likely dancing in your head. But, in order to indulge this holiday season, it's crucial to remain disciplined in regards to your exercise regimen.

Dress up a pair of performance leggings by tucking them into knee-high boots or make a pair of slouchy, mesh-lined pants look polished via high heel pumps or ankle boots. Next, rely on a multi-functional tank to serve as a base layer for your outfit. The Impact by Jillian Shelf Bra Yoga Top, for instance, looks like a classic tank top but includes the performance support needed for your post-work workout.
To make the look more office-appropriate, add a bold, tailored jacket like the Sofia by Sofia Vergara Embellished Blazer in Currant to elevate your ensemble to new heights of sophistication. Next, for a classic touch, wrap the paisley print Jaclyn Smith Jacquard Scarf around your neck and tie it ever so loosely. Be sure to keep a pair of lightweight sneakers in a roomy but structured handbag like the Dream Out Loud by Selena Gomez Carrie Tote.
Once it's time to hit the gym, all you need to do is change your shoes, take off your blazer, work that hair into a high ponytail, hop on that stationary bike, and get pedaling!

My apologies, I forgot to mention this in my post, but flashing my backup BIOS was one of the first things I've done with each board. Every time I've hoped it's worked but inevitably, I have the same issue. As for the reset button, it's a nonissue because this problem occurs when I cold boot and press the power button. When I simply reset or restart this problem does not occur.
Ahh ok, well that's good you've been doing that already!
So this happens on three boards right? Are all three used at once, or just at different times? Just wondering if they all have their own memory? If so, have you tested each stick one by one on a cold boot?
If not, test each stick one by one each morning, as in put in the single stick at night and set it up and make sure it's all working, then cold boot test in the morning. Do that once each day until you have tested each module one by one, often times this can be a perfectly working stable module otherwise, but you'll find one or two may fail cold boots in the morning or after 6-8 hours downtime. So that would be what I'd test next for sure, on each machines set of memory if they all have their own.
I've had three separate boards but sequentially. I had my original that I bought then the 2 replacement Gigabyte sent me.
As for the memory I suppose I could do that, although I fail to see the difference between trying 4 individual sticks 10 minutes apart or leaving one in there overnight. Oftentimes whenever I change the RAM configuration that's an automatic recipe for a boot loop sequence as soon as the machine turns on. I fix it by pressing Reset for about 5 minutes and power cycling or I can reset CMOS but when I reset CMOS I often still have boot loops and have the same process except that I've lost all my settings.
I was really hoping that this problem was due to memory timings or running at DDR 1600 or using too many sticks. At least then I'd have a stable board. However, I've been able to replicate this problem using any combination of sticks at DDR 1333 or 1600 with XMP profile or just the default profile at any voltage. I guess I'll begin the process of leaving one stick in overnight and cold-booting.
At this point I've sunk so much time into this board that I'm really leaning towards just buying an ASUS P8Z68-Pro/Gen 3. Yeah I lose $150, but time is money and I've spent so many mornings holding a screwdriver on the CMOS jumper trying to make my board boot.
Please trust me on this, otherwise if you don't how can you expect people to try and help you out? Cold boot means cold boot, it can be a few hours if really actually cold temp wise, or 8+ hours downtime at room temp.
And hey, you're the one that mentioned cold boot first anyway! I'm just trying to help you figure out the cause of the issues!!
But honestly, I've seen this a few times, and once myself personally on a set I almost beat to death because I couldn't figure out what the problem was! A single stick can rear it's ugly head on a cold boot, yet be perfectly stable any other time, that's why I suggested testing like I did.
I have zero issues here on two P67 boards and a Z68, with any of the tons of memory kits I have, but if I were to put in that one stick I used to have I'd have cold boot issues for sure!

So I was going to implement your suggestions this morning, but when I took out all of the memory but one stick I got caught in an endless boot loop as usual. However, this time I couldn't get out of the loop even after resetting CMOS a few times so I pulled my graphics cards since in the past this has made it more stable. However, when I pulled my graphics cards I was able to get the system to run completely stable. I overclocked it, turned on PLL overvoltage, etc. I shut it down and turned it on many times, although perhaps I just need to test it more. I tried adding in just one graphics card and when I did so... I get the boot loop. I tried pulling the graphics card again and I still had the boot loop a few times but it went away. I need to do a lot more testing to verify this, but do you have any ideas why adding a graphics card would cause my system to become unstable? Keep in mind that although I have two graphics cards I've run this system with only one of them before and had the boot loop problems.
Ya, you'll need to do a lot more testing now to see what's going on, if one card is causing the issues, or both, or any card period. I'd also somehow still get in the memory testing I suggested. I'm not sure why a graphics card would do that, unless it's possibly partially faulty or something, or semi-incompatible which I doubt is the case. Could be the PSU maybe, since you have to connect the card to the PSU for additional power?
I do know, sometimes PCI cards can cause issues, but generally not PCIE cards.
Yeah, it's really weird. It may just be an artifact of how sporadic this thing is. Right now I have both graphics cards in but when I POST I'm booting to the motherboard HDMI outlet and then I switch to the graphics cards once I'm in windows. So far it seems to help a lot but we'll see. More and more testing. Thanks for your suggestions so far.
Allen, have you tried disabling the onboard vga, and then manually setting your BIOS to boot from the PCIe x16 first? (with your discrete video card(s) installed of course).
And don't forget the single stick cold boot memory testing, as one iffy stick can cause any number of random issues on a cold boot, so I'd actually get started on that each morning with all other testing aside or in the afternoon/warm booting.
Yes, I need to test just a single graphics card in the x16 slot. I've used a single graphics card in the x8 slot for months on my first board and I had this issue most mornings. This issue is very sporadic now that I've upped the PTT/QPI voltage and the DRAM voltage and turned off PLL overvoltage. Running both graphics cards was stable for a while but then I got the bootloop chain for a couple of cold boots in a row. At the moment though it seems as if the board BIOS just isn't happy when I have two graphics cards in crossfire, or when I use the x8 PCIe slot.
I'll do the morning memory thing as suggested.

Stirred But Not Shaken is a recent fiction release by Srishti Publications. The book has been authored by Deep Shiva, who is a media professional.
The backdrop of the story has been set up in the national capital and unfolds as the protagonist explores corporate culture, wicked office politics and harms of office romance and over ambitious colleagues. Mohit Chawla, the central character comes from the small town and belongs to the humble background. His exposure to the culture of the big city and corporate bosses in his first job rakes his mind. Him being treated as an unwanted person in the company is what everyone would relate to. The manhandling in corporate culture is nothing new and the novel touches the issue very sensitively.
There are two female characters in the story who are two sides of the same coin- both are ambitious but one of them is too mean to fulfill them. One is spoilt by situations and other by choices. The story revolves around how Mohit is smitten by one of them at first and caressed with care and love by the other in the time of dire need.
Buy Stirred But Not Shaken By Deep Shiva From Amazon
The narration takes you through the thick and thin of Protagonist life. However, the possibility of making his choices, life, and background more detailed was wide which the author failed to do.
In short, Stirred But Not Shaken is a good read. At times, you would feel to punch the protagonist in his face to wake him up from his oblivion state of blind love but at a certain point, you would feel sympathetic to him.
Ratings: 3/5

If you're anything like us, this is absolutely the most wonderful time of the year. Between the hearts glowing and much mistletoe-ing, nothing can ruin the spirit of the season…until you call a business that's completely checked out for Christmas, or already home for Hanukkah, and feel like you got a lump of coal in your stocking because no one's there or you get stuck in Holiday Hold Hell. We need vacations, but our service standards don't (they're 24/7/365).
Luckily, a little foresight and advance planning can ensure your customer care is the gift that keeps on giving to everyone who calls.

Thoughts on Leadership: Giving Thanks to Dwight "The Catch" Clark
"[Quarterback Joe] Montana … Looking … Looking … Throwing into the end zone … Clark caught it! … It's a madhouse at Candlestick …"
This week my travels find me in Northern California, working and preparing to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with friends and family. I'm feeling particularly grateful this year not only for my wonderful family but also for the friends who enrich my life in ways inextricable, intangible and extraordinary.
Leaders, as you know, are not born, they're made, and the fabric of leaders is sewn from all the intelligent, inspiring people around them. One leader I'm thankful to call my close friend is Dwight "The Catch" Clark," once an obscure, 10th-round draft pick in the 1979 NFL draft—the 249th player chosen—who went on to become Sports Illustrated's NFL Player of the Year in 1982.
I was lucky enough to be a San Francisco 49ers fan in the 1980s and watched my pal Dwight play for my favorite team. He's the owner of five Super Bowl rings—two as a player and three in management—a two-time All Pro and caught 506 receptions in his career. But who knows if his great run would've ever happened if it wasn't for that amazing Sunday in January of 1982 when "Too Tall" Jones and what seemed like the entire Dallas Cowboys defense was chasing 49ers quarterback Joe Montana and Dwight was trying to lose Cowboy's defensive back Everson Walls running across the back of Candlestick Park's end zone. The next moment would be memorialized in sports history forevermore: Dwight caught the winning touchdown pass thrown by Montana and the 49ers won the NFC Championship game that year.
Now, I say I was lucky in the '80s to watch Dwight play but I'm even luckier now to share a friendship with him and find inspiration in everything he does. He's a leader defined by perseverance, resiliency and an unwavering desire to reach out his hand and "Catch" for others. Earlier this year, Dwight announced he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Those same qualities of resiliency and perseverance are front and center as he fights the debilitating effects of ALS today.
But he isn't fighting alone. In fact, the entire 49ers family is right by his side, cheering him on as he fights such a difficult opponent. Part of that support comes by way of the Golden Heart Fund, established by the 49ers and Pro Football Hall of Fame owner Eddie DeBartolo, Jr. The fund assists former players during times of need. (If you feel, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, that you'd like to donate, please click here.)
Other support comes by simply showing Dwight we—an entire town, an entire fan base—are there.
Several weeks ago, on Oct. 22, Dwight was honored during halftime at Levi Stadium, when the 49ers took on the Cowboys, a testament to their beloved hero. And on Nov. 9, I was fortunate to accept an award on Dwight's behalf at the SAP Center—he was inducted that day into the San Jose Sports Hall of Fame. There wasn't a dry eye in the house as Dwight, who couldn't make it to the ceremony, delivered a poignant video speech thanking his fans, his family and all those who've supported him along the way.
"Now I'm praying for another Catch—a cure for this dreaded disease," Dwight said with characteristic optimism. "I am praying for a research doctor out there with the equivalent arm of Joe Montana. You know that pattern, Doc. Just launch that cure like a Montana pass; I'll be waiting again at the back of the end zone. I'll even take a high one again just to make us both look good."
The greatness of Dwight—in addition to his historic play—is also found in his altruism. As Abraham Lincoln once said, "No man stands as tall as when he bends down to help a child." And for me, when I think of that eternal quote, I think of Dwight Clark. I don't think of the Catch that he had to jump so high to make I think of the many times I watched him bend over to help a child in need. You may not know this but Dwight was an integral force in helping the Intero Foundation, which provides resources to children in need, raise more than $4 million in grants and support.
As Joe Montana explained in the highlight reel that played during Dwight's induction ceremony: "He's a people person, so helping people comes naturally to Dwight. You can just see it on his face. The 'tell' is all there."
So, what's the message? Let's pass this one to Dwight, and on Thanksgiving, recognize all those incredible friends in our lives who make everything that much better just by their mere existence. Thank you, Dwight, for all you've done to help those in need. Thank you for always putting others first and for brightening this world with your shining spirit of positivity. Now that you're looking to us as you fight against ALS, know that we're sending our love and prayers to you, a great and awe-inspiring leader who continues to field catches in the game of life, no matter what is thrown your way.

Kingston Liberal Democrats are outraged at Conservative-controlled Transport for London's decision to withdraw funding from Kingston's Capital Call scheme.
Capital Call was a complementary service to Taxicard introduced in 2004 by TfL which provided subsidised door-to-door transport for people with mobility issues living in London boroughs where there is a shortage of London taxis. In January 2009 it was announced that Kingston's Capital Call scheme will cease, with effect from 31 March 2009.
We are particularly concerned for people living in the borough who are visually impaired. Sight loss prevents people from driving and can also lead to serious difficulties for using public transport unaccompanied. The end of Capital Call scheme will have a serious negative impact on the mobility of Kingston's blind and visually impaired residents.
Kingston's Liberal Democrat Council will fight the Conservative Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, on this decision.
Transport for London have responded to pressure from Kingston's Liberal Democrat Councillors and local campaigners to delay the cancellation of the Capital Call service in Kingston from April to June 'at least', to give time for further discussion and consultation.
London Mayor Boris Johnson wants to cut the Capital Call service, which offers subsidised door-to-door transport for people in Kingston who have mobility problems. We only have a few weeks left to stop him.
Last year 270 people in Kingston registered with the scheme, and used it an average of nine times each. I know that many partially-sighted people in particular have found it very helpful, and it offers a cheaper and more reliable service than black cabs.
Earlier this year, the Mayor decided to cut this service as part of his budget plans. He planned, without any consultation with users, to axe the service on 31 March.
Thankfully, the Talking Newspaper, Transport for All and the Kingston Centre for Independent Living all lobbied against this unfair move. Boris had to back down, and we now until June to make our views heard.
That is why I have set up a petition on the council's website for everyone who wants to save this important service. If you want to support Capital Call, please look at http://epetition.kingston.public-i.tv/view/capitalcall and add you name.
This year Boris thought he could cut services for people with mobility issues without complaint. We need to send him a clear message that he cannot, and hopefully he will think twice about attacking other groups next year.

Q: asp.net core with signalR < - > static socket Use Case:
I have a asp.net core web application with signalR core for messaging. :)
Problem:
I have to receive messages from a socket connection [via System.Net.Sockets] (machine with own socket communication)
Is there any way to integrate the socket client in the web app (maybe Progamm.cs or Startup.cs?)
And how can I get access to the signalR to forward the received message to the signalR Hub?
thx

A: I suggest you to read the stockticker sample on : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/signalr/overview/getting-started/tutorial-server-broadcast-with-signalr
I show you here a small sample which you can adapt to your application. You have to subscribe the messages from your own socket communication and then you can forward this messages to the connected clients.
Here is a small sample how to send the time from server to the clients.
(The interesting part for you is the line GlobalHost.ConnectionManager.GetHubContext<ClockHub>().Clients.All.sendTime(DateTime.UtcNow.ToString());. Which this you can send something to all connected clients.
My main class is a clock which sends the actual time to all connected clients:
public class Clock
{
    private static Clock _instance;
    private Timer timer;
    private Clock()
    {
        timer = new Timer(200);
        timer.Elapsed += Timer_Elapsed;
        timer.Start();
    }

    private void Timer_Elapsed(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
    { // ---> This is the important part for you: Get hubContext where ever you use it and call method on hub             GlobalHost.ConnectionManager.GetHubContext<ClockHub>().Clients.All.sendTime(DateTime.UtcNow.ToString());
        GlobalHost.ConnectionManager.GetHubContext<ClockHub>().Clients.Clients()
    }

    public static Clock Instance
    {
        get
        {
            if (_instance == null)
            {
                _instance = new Clock();
            }
            return _instance;
        }
    }
}

}
In the startup I created a sigleton instance of this clock, which lives as long as the application is running.
  public class Startup
    {
        public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
        {
            var inst = Clock.Instance;
            app.UseCors(CorsOptions.AllowAll);
            app.MapSignalR();
        }
    }
}

My Hub:
  public class ClockHub : Hub<IClockHub>
    {

    }

Hub interface which defines the method, which the server can call:
 public interface IClockHub
    {
        void sendTime(string actualTime);
    }

This is the clients part:

Beneath the Covers
Guest Contributer August 18, 2016
Somewhere in the 90s, probably lying on the floor of the sitting room on a Saturday night, re-watching The Bodyguard, I was trying (and failing) to out-sing Whitney's I Will Always Love You. No doubt those high-notes must have brought a tear to my mother's eye… in the 'Dear Jesus, how did I breed this?' kind-of-way. My older sister informed me that no-one can out-sing Whitney's I Will Always Love You. No-one should try cover it because it is guaranteed failure. 'Good Effort' sticker in your copybook, but never a gold star.
Years later I was shook when I found out that Whitney was, herself, covering that song! What did this mean? It just meant it is possible to out-do an original (but maybe not out-do Whitney). The people will always cry 'SACRILEGE! The original was far better' at a cover version. But sometimes it is a gift. Sometimes songs become lost, never to be found again, until a cover carries them back up to the diving board for another go. A gift to new ears, or to your memory. And always a love letter to the original.
My choice of cover, for the record, is Bell X1's Mystery Girl (originally by Roy Orbison).
by Sarah Moloney
With A Girl Like You – Dave Sitek
(originally written and performed by The Troggs)
by Bernie Divilly
I came across this cover on the 2009 Red Hot compilation Dark Was The Night, a brilliantly curated record, produced by those talented Dessner brothers from The National. It was love at first listen.
Having already been a fan of the original, I just immediately connected with the way Sitek (guitarist/keyboardist in TV On The Radio, genius producer, once worked in a coffee shop with Chris from Grizzly Bear) reworks the song almost as a homage. It's hilariously effortless and fun, but also darker, murkier, fuzzier, bass-drenched, and reverbed to the hilt with Sitek sounding like a pleasantly intoxicated Stephen Merrit.
To my mind it conjures up mean-girl American high school prom films: shiny and swirly but with just the right amount of ominous undertone. It's for playing loud and swaying drunkenly in your kitchen at 3am, trumpet miming and all. Do it.
Worried Shoes – Daniel Smith & Sufjan Stevens
(originally written and performed by Daniel Johnston)
by Bobby Aherne
The original version of 'Worried Shoes' is so deeply intimate that the idea of somebody other than Daniel Johnston performing it seems almost sacrilegious. Recorded in one take, onto a dusty old tape recorder on a Texan summer's day (in his brother's presumably sweltering garage), his parable about overcoming depression has a near-improvised quality and sounds so pained and diaristic that it's entirely likely that the listener will feel like a voyeuristic weirdo, eavesdropping in on something that they were never meant to hear.
Enter Daniel Smith and his one-time Danielson Famile bandmate Sufjan Stevens. Similar to Johnston, Smith has an endearingly abrasive, high-pitched and fragile voice that enables him to respectfully deliver the tune without stripping it of any of its emotional resonance. Although the Daniel Johnston revival of the 2000s was aided largely by a series of heavyweights (Beck, Tom Waits, et al) recording 'better quality' versions of the originals, Smith & Stevens' rendition succeeds on more than just access to a fancy studio and ProTools wizardry. Instead, it glides by on the idea that maybe this is the sound that Johnston actually had in his head back in his brother's garage in 1983 – perhaps this is the song that he might have recorded, had he been pally with a drummer and a guitarist and somebody who knew how to overdub properly.
Luckily for us, he didn't… and now both versions exist. In this is the magic of a well-intended cover, and the legacy of a great artist: as well as gifting us with the original, 'authentic' piece of music, they are setting it free for the rest of us to adopt, tweak re-interpret, be inspired by, or – of course – murder in a karaoke bar at 4am, after way too many bottles of Korean beer.
I'm On Fire – Electrelane
(originally written and performed by Bruce Springsteen)
by Daniel Gray
Covering the Boss is like beholding the Gorgon, even for the most mythical of musicians; Bowie, Cash, and Donna Summer have all recorded versions made of dead stone. Springsteen's 1985 shag track, I'm On Fire, has racked up dozens of tepid tributes over the years: the only one that counts is English quartet Electrelane's, an offcut from 2004's Steve Albini-produced The Power Out.
Out goes Springsteen's muted arpeggios, muted backbeat and muted libido, in come smashed cymbals, crunching bass throbs and screeching, off-key lust. What remains is the blue-balled vulnerability.
The key difference between these two versions? When Springsteen whispers that he's on fire, you know he's been singed. When Verity Susman screams it, you can hear the the third degree burns.
Exit Music for a Film – Brad Mehldau
(originally written and performed by Radiohead)
by Dave Desmond
Jazz is a music of assimilation and reinterpretation, and has always looked to popular music as a point of departure for improvisation and harmonic exploration. Jazz musicians of the early 20th Century often took popular Broadway and Hollywood musicals for repertoire, and while these songs are still widely performed jazz standards to this day, many modern musicians now look to their own contemporaries rather than to the past for their inspiration. In the 90s and 00s it became increasingly popular for bands to adapt alternative rock tunes, for example, The Bad Plus began to record and perform cover versions of acts like Aphex Twin, Wilco, The Pixies and Black Sabbath, while Brad Mehldau found new depths in the work of Nick Drake and Radiohead.
My favourite cover by Brad is found on his 1998 album The Art of the Trio Vol. III. It's an instrumental version of Radiohead's "Exit Music for a Film" from their album OK Computer, which was released only a year earlier. Here his trio manages to retain the slow build and monumental climax of the original song using minimal components, with Mehldau's virtuosic piano improvisation and drummer Jorge Rossy's pacy stick work instead providing the dynamic and emotive range.
Bill Callahan – The Breeze/My Baby Cries
(originally written and performed by Kath Bloom)
by Dylan Haskins
The Breeze/My Baby Cries was written by the relatively obscure American folk musician Kath Bloom. Bill Callahan covered the song for Loving Takes its Course, a 2009 tribute album to Bloom. Perhaps it's because I heard the cover before I'd ever heard of Kath Bloom, but after seeking out the original, recorded in 1982, I was a bit disappointed. There's something unsettling and frantic about the arrangement.
Authorship matters less in music than other art forms. When Callahan takes The Breeze, he slows everything right down, unsheathing a powerful solemnity concealed in the song. The restraint of his delivery allows time for each weighty line of Bloom's lyrics to land. The resigned refrain of 'The Breeze will kill me' exposes the human soul at its most vulnerable.
But for me, the line that lingers longest is "It's so hard to tell where I end / And where my father begins". I recall it in those not infrequent moments of awareness that I too am encroaching on the purlieus of fatherhood.
I Was Young When I Left Home – Antony + Bryce Dessner
by Robyn Chase
It's happened to me a few times. I put on a new record and a song comes on: The lyrics are rich and simple, the form is basic, yet the tone is worldly and somehow essential. It's subject is universal, uncomplicated images pass by and illustrate. This music feels like it was always there.
The first time this happened to me, I had just discovered Nina Simone and heard her singing I Shall Be Released. Soon after, it happened again listening to Adele's debut, and the track Make You Feel My Love. I can't remember when I discovered the link between the two was a Bob Dylan writing cred.
My musical upbringing had suffered a complete Dylan drought and whenever I did try explore his recorded work, it just didn't click with me. Despite this I have found a way to appreciate his songwriting. This recording by Antony + Bryce Dessner (ANOHNI and of The National fame, respectively) of I Was Young When I Left Home does everything I think a cover should. It departs from the original yet amplifies what makes the song worthy of recital: in this case, its lyrics and the worlds created therein. Antony's vocal is as touching, knowing and persisting as ever, while Dessner's accompaniment and production creates a timeless frame in which this arcadian tale of departure and return can suspend.
Ruby Tuesday – Dick Gaughan
(originally written and performed by The Rolling Stones)
by Philip King
Ruby Tuesday is a great song and has stayed with me since I first heard it rolling out from under my pillow on a lemon-coloured transistor radio on wings of static, on 208 from Luxembourg.
The Rolling Stones recorded "Ruby Tuesday" in December 1966 and the song was released along with "Let's Spend The Night Together" as a double A-sided single on January 13 1967. The single was banned from in Ireland: The notion of 'spending the night together' in 1967 Ireland was just not acceptable!
Ruby Tuesday lyrically and sonically is a shift away from the blues inflected grammar of the earlier Stones stuff. '66 was the year of The Beatles' Revolver, The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds and Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde and The Stones were rattling around in the playpen wondering what to do next.Ruby Tuesday is all Keith Richards a little Brian Jones (who had not fully entered the chemical world) and a little Mick Jagger.
Ruby Tuesday is a ballad, a story song about a free-spirited wild child Linda Keith, who ditched Richards for Jimi Hendrix.
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost, at such a cost
String bass fingered by Bill Wyman and bowed by Keith along with a floating flute figure underpin Mick's vocal. The Stones 1967 recording is of its time, but Dick Gaughan's setting is timeless. (From the album Sail On 1996, Greentrax).
Gaughan a Scottish musician, and as a singer of the highest order, he takes ownership of the song. There is no one quite like Gaughan: his songs of struggle, love and freedom are pitted and lined with rage and compassion. His voice is an instrument filled with a plaintive Irish tone and sharp Scottish rhythm. Like all great ballad singers, the song sings him, Ruby Tuesday sings him. Harp and a glistening opened-tuned guitar lay down a musical bed for his beautiful voice, with every syllable, every rolling "R" riveting. Ruby comes alive and the song is replete with a sense of love, loss,longing and a lingering hint of danger.
The Stones (Keith in particular) were always friends of "Danger". Dick Gaughan with this rendition adds a hint of grace to their danger. Ruby Tuesday, through his voice, finds redemption and wisdom – "lose your dreams and you will lose your mind". We couldn't hear that in 1967 – we sure know it now.
The Avalanches' Since I Left You – Arranged by Nico Muhly for Alarm Will Sound
by Rob Farhat
When I was asked to write this piece by Cheap Trick, I completely misunderstood the premise and thought the idea was to write about my favourite hypothetical cover, as opposed to one that actually exists as I was eventually told. Given that I'm a stubborn bastard who has no respect for authority, I went ahead with my original understanding anyway.
My favourite hypothetical cover is an orchestral arrangement of one of my favourite albums. Specifically, I would bloody love Nico Muhly to arrange The Avalanches' entire debut (and until recently only) album Since I Left You, which the contemporary ensemble Alarm Will Sound would record and tour globally.
Since I Left You is a remarkable masterpiece that is almost entirely made up of over 3,500 samples – you could argue it's an album full of mini covers in itself – which when put together create something both entirely new and nostalgic at the same time. Covering a single song would be a very challenging task in itself, but which song would you pick? The whole album plays like a non-stop, hour-long emotional rollercoaster and you would just have to do the whole thing. Sorry.
Nico Muhly is one of the finest contemporary composers right now, and has also done arrangements for some of my favourite artists like Björk, Sufjan Stevens, Grizzly Bear, Antony & The Johnsons, and Joanna Newsom. He's never been averse to a bit of whimsy in his instrumentation and if anyone can take on the mammoth task of orchestrating an album with the playfulness and sheer variety of Since I Left You, it's him. Good luck, Nico.
And as for the performers, Alarm Will Sound have already taken on Steve Reich's arrangements of Radiohead, and a set of arrangements of the music of Aphex Twin, so this should be no bother to them.
Make it happen guys. Nice one.
Rise Above – Dirty Projectors
(originally written and performed by Black Flag)
by Ian Lamont
The conceit behind Dirty Projectors's 2007 album Rise Above is as follows: DPs mainman Dave Longstreth found a cassette box –– without the cassette in it –– for Black Flag's 1981 album Damaged and, lacking the physical media to listen to the record, decided to reimagine it from memory.
The album he wrote, of course, bore absolutely no resemblance to the music of Black Flag. Where Greg Ginn's songs are violent smears of apoplexy and dissatisfaction, Longstreth's are weird abstractions of a political dissent that has the comfort of ironic distance. Where Black Flag hammered down the accelerator without prejudice, Dirty Projectors swooped, hovered, spiralled and soared hanging together on Longstreth's skronky guitar and grating voice and the infinitely pleasing hockets and harmonies of Amber Coffman and Susanna Waiche (later Angel Deradoorian).
There's a smartarsedness to this potentially apocryphal backstory that is definitely part of the attraction to me. Dave Longstreth's music is often arch in the extreme, but I like the idea of stitching the music one makes into the greater narrative –– in this case, American independent music –– and of quoting and recontextualising art as part of an ongoing conversation. But while it's hifalutin, it also channels the sense of loss that comes with nostalgia and repurposes Ginn's monolithic frustrations for a more nuanced (read: confusing) world.

It must have been around 1975 to 1976 when I first saw Doctor Feelgood, in a boxing arena in Liverpool – an appropriate venue for their swaggering, full-on brand of punchy R&B.
And just who was that wild-eyed guitarist with the pudding basin haircut and crumpled suit who played those manic guitar lines and zipped frantically across the stage and back as if on a giant piece of elastic?
Of course, it was Wilko Johnson and 40 years on he is still instantly recognisable. Feelgood frontman Lee Brilleaux is sadly long gone (he died in 1994) but Wilko has survived the vagaries of the music business, Game Of Thrones and a serious, serious health scare.
Of course, Wilko's time with the Feelgoods was short and a long time ago, but as it is referenced on this double CD set with the presence of such seminal Essex estuary rhythm and blues as Roxette, She Does It Right, Back In The Night and Sneaking Suspicion, I have no reservations whatsoever about mentioning them.
Wilko's guitar playing is as distinctive on his newer material as it was back in the 70s, and just as catchy, though with the occasional ballad and a nod to the freakbeat that preceded psychedelia (think Jeff Beck-era Yardbirds), though generally this is the sound of the Rolling Stones, The Kinks and others of that ilk in the early 60s, filtered through a proto-punk energy level and attitude.
Wilko might not be the world's best vocalist but he is always passable and generally tailors his songs to suit his voice. And if all this is new to you, you need this release!


This being one of the best forums as far as content and a responsive developer. Great helpful users, and a general good tone. I think there's few things about the forum here, and forums in general that have room for inprovement.
The topics of dicussion here is perhaps too detailed into various sub headings..
It may seem at first glance that it is a great help to have this ordered this way..
But on the other hand it has a tendency to bury information.
When I post my music made with Numerology, I like to detail my setup what I used, some of the techniques or AU's. I admit this has a double motive and purpose.. I figure it is a way to pay back not just using the Forum to promote my music, but to show off what Numerology can do, and how to do it.. Then of course it's motivation to have a place to show the results of your work, to people who have a clue as to what it takes to develop .. The point of all this is the heading Music can contain lots of information that could be cateogorized under "Tips and Tricks"
The "Feature request" sub forum is also another good example where dicussions about Features contain work around concepts and Feature explanations that the OP's had not known about. These bits of information start to move over from "Feature request" and would be great if they ended up under for example Tips and Tricks, or Integration.
I think maybe a page where there is some forum guidlines where some points as to how to improve the forum from both the Adminstrator and the user side..
Baring that maybe reducing the number of topics.
I almost always pause before posting because I don't know where exactly I should place my post..
I'll continue this thread with a few other points..
Anyone have any ideas about forum Order?
Ah that's really the way to do it I guess, make a lot of tags on the existing information where it lies..
It's great for finding relevant bits of information for sure. And we should all get into the habit of tagging our posts as we make them, or as you did taking other's posts when you find interesting meaty posts. For your own sake so you can find it, but also so everyone else can find it to, and perhaps carry on the dicussion..
What''z ya say I'm hard of hearing??? Disgusting? Disgusted with what?
I said its about the matter!
What's the matter?! Speak up I can't ear yar..
The matter is modular sequencing ya fooool!!!
Anyway sorry for the Marx brothers took over..
What I find is that posts, and threads on the internet often stop seemingly in mid sentence.. It's full of loose ends. So just tagging subjects is just a first step in what I envisioned as a type Encylopedia of Sound design, and Modular sequencing , Modular synthesis in the Numerology arena..
That all for now on this subject.
I agree, there is a lot of "hidden"* information in the forum.
Interesting idea about using tags. Within OS X I attempted to use metadata to sort my samples as opposed to folders, as per this article: http://lifehacker.com/169971/metadat...-filing-system , but I never found it intuitive enough to stick with and you sort of have to go all or nothing.
With a forum though, you have the advantage that anyone can work on collating information, even as they are searching through it!
The forum as is might need some re-tooling to function more smoothly for tagging and that would take time away from Numerology development. On the other hand, if this info could then be either be more easily disseminated to the end user or integrated into the manual it could have an overall positive effect on time spent answering questions as well as increase the appeal of the program in general. The manual is great, but who doesn't like examples? We, the users, can always think of more creative ways to break and misunderstand things!
Is it a two tag limit per thread or can a user only add two tags? If possible, pre-made point and click tags rather than typing would be ideal so as not to end up with minor variations and just to make it feel less like work.
Here's a thought, what if a robo-searcher went through tagged posts and dumped them into a WIKI? If there is indeed a two tag limit, one tag could be the general topic and the other could be the post number(s) of interest. From there the info could be edited/tagged further. If a hyper link back to the original thread was included other users could add context if need be or see if there is other useful information.
When I browse the form (sometimes w/o access to Numerology, like now) I am always dragging text onto textedit (which is kind of a pain because the font is white!) or I use the print to pdf function. When I'm searching for a solution I always come across more interesting/useful information that I want for later. Then I move the documents into some very general folders. Point being, I have to write a lot of this stuff down to remember anyway.
Although, honestly, I can't say for sure that I would be compelled to edit a WIKI. Maybe it's wishful thinking that other people would feel the same, but I can imagine spending some time when a question of mine is answered as a "thank you" gesture. I also recognize that if I help others get information more quickly, they will have more time to develop intriguing creations and problem solving techniques, which if they then share will be beneficial to me, as well.
I feel like even a loosely sorted lazy info dump would be useful, as it would still be more refined than the forum. As is, the forum already has an impressively high signal to noise ratio.
Maybe, the first step would be to WIKI-ize the manual and then allow linkbacks to the forum in "Foot notes" and/or "Trouble-shooting" areas per topic? I'm not a fan of exessive intertext hyperlinks.
I think sorting data is the problem of the information age, but maybe it's just because I'm so scattered. It's a toughie.
*Sometimes, I enjoy a treasure hunt!
With out cohearance in the data stream we are lost all lost!
We need to improve the quality of our user experience. This is the only way that Numerology can grow and survive in a market with increasing competition. So working on improving accessabilty of the features and describing the qualities of our tools adds value and sells it better, shuts up the complainers helps the developer find where the relavant areas for improvemnet and bug fixes are.
From a user point of view the actual writing of texts about the tools you use and the creative process is a valuable learning experience. Often it reveals weak spots in your knowledge, and even better weak spots in your communication and reasoning skills.
As for myself living in Denmark after growing up in Canada makes me put a high value on my english language writing skills. The Danes speak okay english. But I speak danish with the danes so I don't get much practice with english at all here.

Music should stay, but some parts of it (reading, musicians & composers) should be moved to a Wiki area.

associations in the US and abroad

In response to Yigael Schiefer's article, "Ataturk", Mustafa Kemal is the product of the corrupt politics that emerged in the wreckage of the First World War. He was the contemporary of Lenin and Mussolini,
and the forerunner of Hitler in terms of advocating the destruction of populations on the basis of racial ideology. Kemal deserves to be remembered only as another dead dictator from the twentieth century,
who presided over the mass suffering and genocide of the Greek, Armenian, and Assyrian Christian populations in Anatolia.
If Mr. Schlaefer had done his research within the Christian Science Monitor's historical archives, he would have found numerous articles and reports that appeared in the pages of the Monitor that were submitted by Dr. Herbert Adam Gibbons, who wrote about the large scale murders, death marches, and other crimes that were inflicted on the Asia Minor Greeks by Kemal and his henchmen. Other majorsources of the period such as the National Geographic also covered the horrific suffering of one million Greeks who had been ethnically cleansed on the order's of Kemal, in order to pave the way for the Republic that Kemal would serve as the "founder" of.
Substantial evidence proving that Kemal was a murderous figure, has been provided by American diplomatswho served in Constantinople and Smyrna such as Henry Morgenthau and George Horton, as well as
witnesses such as Edward Hale Bierstadt of the US Near East Relief Committee. It is long past time that the myths and outright lies pertaining to Kemal and modern Turkey were exposed.

Ataturk: Turkey wrestles with how to remember its founder
A wave of biopics about Mustafa Kemal Ataturk stirs hot debate over modern Turkey's identity.

It's easy to mistake Muratoglu Kirtasiye, a tidy Istanbul stationery store, for perhaps a small museum dedicated to the memory of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, modern Turkey's secularizing founder.
Skip to next paragraph
Actor Sinan Tuzcu plays Mustafa Kemal Ataturk in 'Veda,' a film about the founder of modern Turkey released this year.
Maxximum Film und Kunst
Located in a bustling district filled with print shops near the heart of Istanbul's Old City, Muratoglu specializes in providing schools with Ataturk paraphernalia and is stocked floor to ceiling with items bearing his image. There are gold-colored busts, clocks with his picture on them, and framed photographs and paintings that seem suited for every conceivable setting: Ataturk riding victoriously in uniform on horseback, gazing pensively skyward, surrounded by children with a kind smile on his face, looking gentlemanly while sitting in a wicker chair and dressed in a smoking jacket.
"He's the world's biggest man. There's no one else like him," says Fadil Karali, the store's manager, scanning the numerous pictures of Ataturk, who died in 1938, lining the walls.
"He was the kind of person that, unfortunately, only comes once every 100 years," Mr. Karali adds. "He died a long time ago, but we haven't forgotten him."
But the question that seems to be increasingly facing Turks is which Ataturk to remember? Like the multitude of images in Karali's store, there now appear to be competing, if not conflicting, takes on just who Ataturk was.
One place where the battle over how to define Ataturk and his legacy can be clearly seen these days is on the big screen in Turkey. In the past two years, three new films about the legendary leader have been released: a controversial documentary that, despite its efforts to humanize Ataturk, was criticized for insulting his memory, and two biopics that were in turn criticized for glossing over certain difficult details and for overly romanticizing the life of a complicated figure.
Turkey is currently going through a period of deep political polarization, much of it over two unresolved issues left over since the time of Ataturk: What role should religion play in the public square, and what role should the powerful state play in private life? In many ways, it appears that the battle over how to portray Ataturk is very much at the heart of Turkey's ongoing struggle over how to define itself.
"What is in contention in Turkey is not Ataturk's legacy. The fight is not about the past; it is about our future," says Faruk Logoglu, formerly Turkey's ambassador to Washington and undersecretary of the country's ministry of foreign affairs.
Ataturk, a military officer-turned-statesman who led the fight to rebuild modern Turkey out of the ashes of the failed Ottoman Empire, is a ubiquitous presence in the country. His image hangs in every public office and almost every private one. Parliamentarians take an oath to follow his principles, while schoolchildren start learning about his life and exploits in kindergarten.
"Insulting Ataturk," meanwhile, is a punishable offense. Access to YouTube, for example, has been blocked in Turkey by court order for the last few years because of the presence of video clips posted by Greek users that were seen as mocking Ataturk.
But despite being ever present, the real Ataturk remains something of a mystery, says Tibet Kaan Demirtas, producer of "Veda," a biographical film about the leader that was released this year.
I don't think that people know a lot about him. People know what's been told to them, but if you look very deep into Ataturk, he's the most talked-about person in Turkey, but still the least understood. There's a lot more to know about him," says Mr. Demirtas, whose film was accused by some critics as further "mythologizing" Ataturk. "Ataturk is a legend. He's not just a character. That's why it's so hard and risky to do a film about him."Skip to next paragraph
That was certainly the lesson learned by Can Dundar, a famous Turkish journalist whose 2008 documentary, "Mustafa," tried to bring Ataturk down to earth.
Mr. Dundar's version of the nation's hero, that of a smoker and heavy drinker who ultimately died a lonely man, was at odds with the official narrative and provoked a serious backlash. Columnists told readers to boycott the film and a legal case was opened against Dundar for insulting Ataturk (it was ultimately stopped).
"Now I know what it means to confront taboos," Dundar told the Turkish daily Hurriyet after his film was released.
"There is a mythical vision of him as an individual, and there is a problem in creating a more human vision of him as an individual, with human deficiencies," says Rifat Bali, an independent historian based in Istanbul who, like other researchers, has found it easier to access archival material about Ataturk outside Turkey than inside the country. "The Kemalists" – as Ataturk's ideological heirs are known – "made Ataturk into a taboo subject, one that you cannot discuss in a scholarly way."
For many Turks, the effort to "humanize" Ataturk is nothing more than an attempt to chip away at Turkey's foundations. Many look at Ataturk as the bond that holds the country together; questioning Ataturk's stature or legitimacy is tantamount to questioning the nation's legitimacy.
"What happens when you alter the image of Ataturk? Ataturk is like the main glue that keeps Turkey together as a country beyond race and ethnic differences," says Bedri Baykam, an artist and writer who is one of the Kemalist movement's leading voices.
"If you take out this glue or dilute it, then you will find Turkey in a thousand pieces," he says, speaking on the phone from Paris, where he is in the process of setting up an exhibition.
"Normally, a historical character like Mustafa Kemal Ataturk should have worldwide, universal recognition," adds Mr. Baykam, who says he has contemplated making his own film about Ataturk. "He left a great legacy for the world, a model of the whole world."
Still, while the subject of Ataturk remains perhaps Turkey's last great taboo, observers say that talking about his legacy has become easier, part of a wider democratization trend in Turkey that has seen the space widen for discussion on other previously no-go subjects, such as the Kurdish and Armenian issues.
"In the past five or six years, articles, books, and TV programs that are directly critical of Ataturk have come to the surface. You can see them now. Some of the episodes that happened during Ataturk's rule that couldn't be talked about before are now being talked about," says Mustafa Akyol, a liberal Islamic columnist with the English-language Hurriyet Daily News. "We can speak about him right now in a way that we couldn't before. And people who think he made important mistakes or misconstrued the country can say this now."
But as the reception given to the recent Ataturk films shows, the debate about how and who gets to define his legacy is one that is most likely to continue.
Back at the Ataturk memorabilia-filled stationery store, manager Karali says he believes the icon is as relevant as ever.
"He created our republic and won our independence. We now live a good life and owe it to him," he says. "He did good for us."
