Playground Bus Stop coming soon!


Many families and individuals consider their homes to be a haven away from the cares of the world, but sometimes, this haven may be trying to kill you. There do not have to be ghosts or extremely dangerous conditions for a house to be dangerous, in fact, some compounds and substances in houses go undetected for years, slowing making the residents ill.
This is a natural fiber that has been mined for thousands of years. It is amazing useful, but inhaling this mineral causes damage to the lungs and can even lead to certain cancers. When present in the home, it should be removed quickly and properly.

Detroit Lions, New York Giants suffer injuries during joint practice
Detroit Lions center Graham Glasgow walks off the field during training camp practice on Tuesday in Allen Park. (AP photo)
By LARRY LAGE
ALLEN PARK — Saquon Barkley mostly stood and watched, resting his strained left hamstring as the New York Giants practiced against the Detroit Lions.
"He's day to day," Giants coach Pat Shurmur said Tuesday.
Barkley, a rookie running back drafted No. 2 overall, did some drills very slowly before going to the sideline to work on strength and conditioning. The former Penn State star was in uniform — minus shoulder pads — while his teammates went through the first of three practices with the Lions.
On Monday, he caught a swing pass out of the backfield and was injured either stretching to make the catch or running down the sideline after the catch.
It's unclear if Barkley will play in Friday night's preseason game at Detroit.
Jonathan Stewart, who spent the first 10 years of his career with the Carolina Panthers, filled in for Barkley during some snaps with the first-string offense.
The Lions, meanwhile, had a key player walk off the field after being injured. Starting center Graham Glasgow appeared to hurt his left leg. Coach Matt Patricia declined to comment on the injury after practice.
Glasgow started all 16 games last year and played in 15 games, starting 11, the previous year as a rookie.
Detroit is counting on him to improve its running game, which has ranked among the NFL's worst in recent years. The team's backup options at center include Wesley Johnson, who started 15 games for the New York Jets last season.

The Very Best Places to Go Shopping for Military Clothing You Possess many Tops, hats, Hats, and Coats. Just as a question of fact, the assortment of military clothing is large.
Such a collecting has turned into a fire for quite a while and you also devote plenty of time exploring for precisely what you really wanted. You can get information about the quality of military surplus products via https://www.rddusa.com/.
A number of the stores that you shop for a massive selection, but they focus on just a single branch of their ceremony. So if that is the situation it might well not be exactly the main one you're searching for. That is unsatisfactory as they're so conveniently located for your requirements.
There's really a military surplus shop in town that's consistently had a fantastic number of clothes to select from. And hanging out searching what was annoying and fun.
Lots of times you left having something which wasn't precisely what you wanted, nevertheless, you settled because of this simply because they failed to need exactly what you wanted.
Opting to come across uniforms in disguise, and even ghillie suits can be an option that's available for those who know where to check. And after that, you definitely would like each one the things which may finish the uniform. Hats, socks, boots, you wish it all. This consists of the nametags and the normal insignia.
In addition, you want to begin adding different activities to your own collection. No set could be complete with no stains or dog-tags which complete the outfit. Or you are packs and totes if you happen to wish to carry your things. Finding a spot that conveys each the accessories, not simply tops, is potential for those who know the best places to check.


Hey, good work on episode zero! look forward to hearing more from ya!
I've taken this for a spin a handful of times on Jinteki.net and it's be a lot of fun; so much so that I'm probably going to bring it to my next GNK and see how it does.
There's a few things that I've tweaked (namely the econ), but the recursion and e3 + Grappling + Vamadeva has worked well.
Things of note: 1. This has been a "pick your spots" kind of deck; when you run, you'll be able to get in, but not multiple times. 2. I'd drop a clone chip and add Lucky Find and maybe an Emergency Shutdown for an Easy Mark; you don't need a lot of money, but there are times where I felt like this deck ran too poor.
Overall, this has been really fun!
@tonybluehose yeah we realise the econ was way off. If you listen to episode 1 of the podcast which is live as of today, you can hear us build the deck live. And then discuss how we need to change the econ.
So I build this deck and tested it and I came to the realization that Vamadeva is incredibly inefficient against most NBN ice(archangel, wraparound,gutenberg, tollbooth and resistor if you eat enough tags).
Unfortunalty this is also the matchup in which grappling hook and e3 doesn't do alot, also derezzing doesn't do much against NBN. This deck probably destroys glacier, though.
Doesn't Turing just shut this deck down?
@PaperboySMDThat isn't what this deck is doing. It's using Vamadeva against ice with one sub. It's using Grappling Hook+e3 Feedback Implants against all other ice. Bad against Turing, but pretty awesome against anything else. Uses Clone Chip, Levy University, and Same Old Thing to get dem hooks back.
@neoreadinggridOne question I had is why Exclusive Party?
@clydeiii The idea behind Exclusive Party was that it was non-resource economy which also provides some deck thinning, since it helps you draw through while gaining money.
The economy of this deck is definitely it's biggest weakness (well, and Turing) so would be the first thing I'd look to tweak.
I really like this deck. Turing is a problem, one which can be dealt with through clicks but that's not ideal. I made an altered version of this build with a more solid econ. netrunnerdb.com give it a shot.
I haven't played this yet (but it's on my to-do!), but it looks really tempting to float tags in a deck with so few resources (and, if you float tags, you can always install SoT, use SoT in one turn). It's also a huge economic boost to be able to float tags after a siphon, and you get some scorch protection from Geist's ability... Have you tried adding a few more trash effects to let you float tags against potential scorch decks? Floating tags against yellow is still a no-go if you suspect EoI / psycho / closed accounts, but against weyland, it seems like maybe this deck could run faster with a sports hopper or two. How do you normally manage tags?
@cortexjackal I ran your vamahook version for the first time last night. I lost both games, mostly just because it was new to me, but it was still a lot of fun. The first I lost against Pālanā because I couldn't get into the scoring server. It had three ice, Caprice, an unrezzed Marcus Batty, and he was sitting on two Nisei tokens. Still, I managed to Sneakdoor my way to 6 points.
The second loss was just stupid. Titan had a single Bailiff protecting his scoring server and HQ, and both of my Vamadevas were next to each other near the bottom of the deck, along with Spike. I couldn't get to them before he scored out, despite trashing both Sports Hoppers to dig for them.
The economy is definitely solid; I always had enough credits, and even caught myself overspending on unnecessary installs, just because I could. A Political Operative or two could have helped against Caprice/Marcus, but I'm not sure what I'd cut. Maybe -1 Street Peddler, -1 The Supplier? I always seemed to have extra Suppliers in hand that I didn't need.
As for Turing, the only thing I see that might be feasible without cutting influence is Peacock. With a solid econ, you can afford the 4 to break, and if you throw Crescentus at it as you go by, you can recover some of what you spent with Tech Traders and force the corp to spend their own 4 to rez it again.

You'll Easily Become Obsessed With CBS' Hottest New Reality Series 'Love Island'
By Gabrielle Bernardini
Get ready to drift away into the world of CBS' newest reality series Love Island. The dating show follows the popular British format, which is filled to the brim with relationship drama, tons of hookups, and a lot of sexy singles.
Love Island will follow a group of men and women as they embark on a journey to find love. "Every few days the Islanders pair up and those who are not coupled are at risk of being dumped from the island," the CBS show bio states. With new contestants being introduced each week, the show will definitely leave viewers on their toes. We certainly can't wait to watch the 90-minute premiere, but first, here's what you need to know about CBS' newest show Love Island and where it's filmed.
So, where is Love Island filmed?
The cast of the reality dating series will make their way to the beautiful South Pacific island of Fiji. With zero access to the outside world, the contestants will be forced to spend every minute together on the island getting to know one another. However, these reality stars will not be living in a shack or forced to make their own camp circa Survivor style. They'll happily be living in the lap of luxury.
A post shared by Love Island (@loveislandusa) on Jul 8, 2019 at 8:06am PDT
"It is the biggest house you've ever seen in your life," host Arielle Vandenberg told USA Today. Revealing the massive villa comes equipped with a hot tub and a "hideaway" where couples can hook up. Adding, "The pool is just insane, we're steps from the beach. It's right on the sand and you can see the water from the pool. It's so beautiful."
For those who are unfamiliar with the hit U.K. show, here's how Love Island works.
Similar to the hit CBS reality series Big Brother, Love Island is shot almost in real-time with each episode being edited down the day prior. This means that relationships are forming and falling apart the same week that viewers are watching it happen.
"You never know what's going to happen. That's why it's also so addicting," Arielle told USA Today. "Especially because it's on five nights a week you're like, 'Who's going to have the upper hand next?'"
Host Arielle Vandenberg
Arielle will be throwing a few curveballs into the competition and hosting the most dramatic aspect of the whole game, the "re-couplings," which gives each guy and girl the option to potentially ditch their current partner. And, those without a significant other will be going home. The nail-biting eliminations will surely give us a few OMG-moments.
Here's how you get in on the action and start voting for your favorite contestants.
Not only will fans get to watch the drama unfold on Love Island, but they have the ability to control the game. Viewers can cast their votes for contestants to go on dates and for their favorite and least favorite couples.
The pair who makes it to the Aug. 7 finale will need to win the vote of fans to ultimately walk away with the prize money and possibly a new boyfriend/girlfriend. Though it has not yet been announced how much money the winning couple will leave the island with, we're sure it's a nice chunk of change.
Catch the U.S. premiere of Love Island on Tuesday, July 9 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.

Business teams and individuals can learn from this man who would rather report about the news than make it.
Business Journalist, Carla Agate has attended his engagements as a professional speaker talking about the subject. Audiences are spellbound. No wonder. They are a rare glimpse of a kidnap victim who fortunately survived to tell the tale.
Broadcaster and Author John McCarthy became the "hottest property" on the professional speaker circuit two years ago when he announced he would reveal for the first time on a public stage what it was like to be encarcerated for 1,943 days in dreadful prison conditions in the Lebanon.
He was oblivious for many years that his story would or could captivate business audiences. He realised it on the first night at a professional speaker when he held a large audience spellbound. There wasn't a sound until he uttered the final word. The resounding applause and autograph hunters told him he had made the correct decision to tell his story.
It has grown as he has grown in speaker stature. He has added topics at the request of managers who recognise the immense relevance the story has to businesses today and tomorrow.
It took supreme levels of self motivation to stay alive and remain sane. He developed many techniques to overcome physical and mental torture, self doubt and despair, which business teams and individuals find fascinating as well as informative.

When America's young soldiers left home to serve their country in World War II, some of them left behind their chances for a high school diploma.
Some arrived home as heroes, but jobs, sweethearts, or other priorities sometimes got in the way of their return to school.
Some, of course, never came home at all.
To recognize such sacrifices, Iowa state lawmakers borrowed an idea from neighboring Nebraska and passed a measure this spring to award honorary high school diplomas to anyone who failed to graduate because of military service during the war.
Iowa's veterans and their families have since inquired about the program by the hundreds, and as many as 2,000 might be able to apply for the diplomas.
A few Iowa high schools have awarded diplomas on their own to veterans, state officials said.
But some veterans' alma maters no longer exist. And the legislature wanted to make it easier for surviving or deceased veterans to be honored.
Evelyn Anderson, whose office at the state education department is handling the program, said fielding the calls from applicants has been anything but dull.
"Sometimes, bureaucracies aren't a whole lot of fun, but these stories have been wonderful," she said. "Guys have said when they call, 'Let me tell you how I met my wife,' or 'Let me tell you why I left school.'"
Veterans-affairs employees check records for names of applicants who served between Sept. 18, 1940, and Dec. 31, 1946. The records sometimes fail to show exactly when a person served, but all requests are considered valid unless proved otherwise.
"We want to err on the side of the veteran," said Brian Bales, the executive director of the Iowa Commission of Veterans Affairs, the agency that helps sort the applications.
The state is considering holding special ceremonies to recognize the honorary graduates on Veterans Day, Nov. 11.
Iowans may call their local or state office of veterans affairs to request free applications.

He will stay on with the organization until a new director is hired.

To ensure that legal assistance is available to victims of hurricane disasters in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the American Bar Association (ABA) has partnered with the Louisiana Civil Justice Center (LCJC) to create a hotline (800-310-7029) to provide needed information and services through pro bono volunteers. The ABA urges lawyers who are active members of the USVI or Puerto Rico bars to sign up to accept referrals of pro bono cases from the LCJC.

The October Tennessee Bar Journal documents a time when just about anyone could practice law with little or no formal training. Lewis Laska writes about a "fake law school" that sold degrees, one of the factors that propelled the legal community to work toward uniformity, education and a written bar exam as standards to practice law. President Lucian Pera tells about lawyers' efforts in the wake of recent hurricanes, as well as ways you can help. Scott Ross gives an update on injury damages under Tennessee law. Russell Fowler shows how Louis Brandeis promoted the idea of pro bono — which is fitting because October is "Celebrate Pro Bono Month!"

Pre-Game Report: Lakers vs. Spurs
Kobe Makes First Appearance On Conan (VIDEO)
Michael Goldsholl
San Antonio Spurs (40-8) at Los Angeles Lakers (34-15)
Game starts at 7:30 p.m. PST
National TV: TNT; Local TV: Fox Sports West
San Antonio's Projected Starting Lineup
PG:Tony Parker (17.3 PPG, 6.8 APG, 51.9% shooting)
SG: Manu Ginobili (18.8 PPG, 4.8 APG, 1.81 SPG)
SF: Richard Jefferson (12.3 PPG, 4.3 RPG, 41.6 3PT%)
PF: DeJuan Blair (7.9 PPG, 7.0 RPG, 1.19 SPG)
C: Tim Duncan (13.6 PPG, 9.4 RPG, 2.0 BPG)
Key Resevers: George Hill (11.3 PPG), Antonio McDyess (4.9 PPG), Gary Neal (8.5 PPG), Matt Bonner (7.6 PPG)
The Spurs enter tonight's game on the heels of a 13-point loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, however they still boast the best record in the NBA at 40-8.
The Lakers, on the other hand, are coming off of thrilling 114-106 overtime win against the Houston Rockets, in which the Lakers (Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom) scored at least 20 points. In addition to the wealth of scoring, Bryant, Gasol and Odom all registered double-doubles on the evening. Bryant finished with 11 assists, Gasol with 16 rebounds and Odom with 20 boards of his own.
The win ended a dismal streak of two consecutive home losses for the Lakers, who have been lacking agression struggling with bouts of complacency as of late.
The Lakers will be faced with arguably the best San Antonio offense of the Duncan era – which is averaging 106 PPG on the season, good for sixth among all NBA teams.
The Lakers' backcourt will undoubtedly have its hands full with the Spurs, as Parker and Ginobili combine for 36.1 PPG, which is second among all starting guard tandems – trailing only Golden State's Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry, who average a scorching 44.1 PPG.
Although Duncan has been averaging career lows in both points and rebounds this season, he is also playing a career-low 29.3 MPG, in an effort to preserve the soon-to-be 35-year old's energy and legs for the postseason.
Playing opposite of Duncan, will likely be Gasol, who, as of late, has been struggling with asserting his presence in the post. In a recent interview, Bryant spoke on the topic of Gasol's lack of agression, telling reporters: "When I'm out there being aggressive and doing my thing, he needs to follow suit and just be just as aggressive which is hard for him because it's kind of against his nature .. He's a very white swan. I need him to be black swan," said Bryant.
As the Lakers look to gain momentum as they move deeper into the second half of their schedule and make that final push before the playoffs begin, there's no questioning whether the team with the league's best record will provide them with a well-fought challenge.
On a positive note for the Lakers, center Andrew Bynum will play tonight after missing Tuesday night's game against the Houston Rockets.

Scapin has an all-new carbon full-suspension XC & Marathon race weapon in their short travel 29er Geko mountain bike. With a lower centre of gravity and shorter chainstays that their previous race bike, the new 95mm travel Geko uses a flex stay rear end to shed weight as well.
At 1800g claimed for the frame the Geko sticks with mostly steep race bike geometry.
The bike gets a relatively steep 70° head angle paired with the larger 51mm offset forks (very similar to Trek's G2 Geometry) to balance quick handling with descending stability.
Paired with a 100mm fork, Scapin calls the 95mm travel Geko 'a through-and-through downhill specialist'. They back that claim up with the steep but large offset front end and a rear end with flexing arched seatstays that promise progressive suspension action.
Aesthetics wise the Geko carries on the angular tube shaping and dramatically kinked top & down tubes that we saw introduced on last summer's Oraklo carbon hardtail.
Like that bike the new Geko gets a full carbon monocoque construction, as well as Boost rear spacing. The full suspension bike however looks to sacrifice front derailleur compatibility in order to get its compact 435mm chainstays.
The Geko does get an oversized seatpost, making it dropper post friendly. All the cable routing is internal – including for a stealth dropper and a remote lockout for the upside-down shock – with derailleur & rear brake routed under the press fit bottom bracket.
The Geko comes six standard builds from a top-of-the-line SX X1E with SRAM XX1 Eagle, dow to the S8 S with a Shimano XT/SLX 1x build. The carbon bike comes in four stock sizes (S-XL) and in matte carbon with either gloss black or red highlights.
The kinked top tube is hideous.
And entirely unnecessary. Probably just adds weight.
Presumably the air can would hit the kink in the seat tube if it was mounted the other way up.
-Decrease unsprung weight. The shaft end of the shock is lighter than the can, so the system has less inertia with the shock in this orientation.
-Remote lockout. If you look closely, the shock has a cable heading from the adjusters down into the bottom bracket. Keeping that end of the shock anchored to the frame means the cable doesn't have to move under compression – cleaner routing, and probably more reliable.
Theoretically, a shock oriented the "regular" way (can on top) would have the advantage of suppleness – the seals would be constantly lubricated by the oil sitting on them.
Thanks for the coverage, Cory!
In the USA and Canada any questions or inquiries can be sent through http://www.ScapinUSA.com or email us at scapinbikeusa@gmail.com anytime!
@Keith – serves a functional purpose, of course, and I dig the look, actually!
@Pepijn – talk to me. LOL.
XC bikes should be required to have two bottle cage mounts inside the triangle.
i agree, especially for marathons.
Point out which XC full suspension bike on the market has two bottle cages inside the triangle. None. Not possible.
And I never seen a racer carrying two bottles even on hardtails, as there are feed zones.
Again, why are there 3 big headline stories, immediately followed by the same 3 stories?
Super that a company is selling get a xc racing frame with racing geometry. Thank you!
Yeah… this thing should be a rocket!
That top tube is a nut buster. Like the rest of the bike.
e-bike ugly. 70 degree head angle. I'll pass.
I love the '148' proudly emblazoned on the seat stay. On a related note, my car has 'ABS' emblazoned on the back, as I love letting the world know I have an Anti-lock Brake System, and you…um, well, I guess most people do.
Hurry, kill that thing before it multiplies.


This page of the website will look at articles associated with the discrimination individuals with Down syndrome receive from social media outlets. People do not just receive their information from videos, but also from news articles that are continuously circulated through social media interfaces. This opens a whole new window for discrimination. Every time an article and video are shared on Facebook it allows a whole new fraction of people to comment. The person writing the comment has the choice whether or not to discriminate against individuals with Down syndrome or praise them.
son. There was no threat being sent to anyone viewing these images, nor was there any hateful speech presented in any of the photos. The Special Olympics is not a violent organization. This organization provides athletic events for individuals with disabilities to participate in and receive awards. By no means are these photos showcasing an act of violence to the viewers. Diana is unsure of who flagged her photos, or if anyone running the site looked at the photos before flagging them (Chew 2). Diana feels that this is an act of discrimination against her son (Chew 2).
This article was circulated around Facebook 2,850 times and tweeted about 178 (Chew 3). A petition was started and circulated around Facebook entitled Tell Facebook:Don't Censor Photos of Kids with Disabilities (Chew 2). This petition was signed by 22,563 members of society (Chew 2). This article shows how social media can be both discriminatory and a good source for circulating news.
Robert Saylor was a twenty-six year old man from Fredrick, Maryland who had Down syndrome (Vargas 1). His story was circulated through Facebook 22,000 times (Researched By Vargas 2). Robert was attending the movie Zero Dark Thirty on January 12th, 2013 with his aide (Vargas 1). After the movie had ended the aide stepped out to go retrieve the car. Little did the aide know that when he or she returned that three off-duty police officers would be pinning her client to the ground (Researched By Vargas 1). It would later be ruled Robert died of homicide by asphyxiation (Vargas 2). The three off-duty police officers from the Fredrick County Sheriff Department were Lieutenant Scott Jewell, Sergeant Rich Rochford, and Deputy First Class James Harris (Vargas 1). These men were on administrative leave without pay and upon investigation were reinstated and found not guilty (Vargas 2). The same police department these individuals work for performed the investigation (Vargas 2).
Social media took this article that was first presented on the news and spread it across social media interfaces, informing millions of people who would have never known about this man. Individuals using the social media website Facebook turned this story into something much more discriminatory than it should have been. Many users praised the police officers for what they did and provide prayers for them (Researched By Vargas 2). By these users showing their praise for the police officers they are discriminating against Robert. They are glad the police officers did what they did. Some people stated that people with Down syndrome should not be allowed out in public (Researched by Vargas 2). Robert has the same rights and privileges as any other citizen, this includes attending a movie. The police officers are trained to handle individuals with disabilities, but these officers apparently forgot about this training (Vargas 2).
out. The people continuously adding comments will add what they have heard about this story, this does not mean what they heard is correct. It has been provided in comments on Facebook that Robert had anger issues, but this was not posted in the news reports (Researched By Vargas 2). This allowed people to comment and praise the police for killing this angry, indifferent, and handicapped man. People with Down syndrome are the same as any normal human being. These people sleep, eat, cook, work, and have feelings just like every person that is commenting and discriminating against them daily.
Liz Crowter is the mother of a young girl named Heidi who has Down syndrome (Dolan 1). Liz stumbled upon pictures of her daughter as a toddler being used to discriminate against individuals with Down syndrome (Dolan 1). Her daughter Heidi's photo was used multiple times with different captions. Some of the captions for this photo included "I can count to potato","Now I have up syndrome", and "My milkshake brings all the tards to the yard"(qtd. in Dolan 1). Liz had posted the photo being used on a support group site for parents that had children with Down syndrome (Dolan 1). Liz was unaware that people would turn her daughters picture into a source of discrimination against individuals with Down syndrome.
Liz called the West Midlands Police Department to report this incident, but they informed her that it was not an official police matter (Dolan 1). Liz also sent reports to the creators of Facebook and had not received any information back from them (Dolan 2). Many of the people who commented on this article placed the discrimination onto the mother, because without her the photos would not have had a name. Others believed it was humorous and described individuals with Down syndrome perfectly.
Heidi is well aware what is taking place with her photo on the internet, but her mother just opened up a whole new way to discriminate against herself and her child with the new photos (Dolan 2). One photo was posted of Heidi dressed as Willy Wonka stating, "Oh, you used the internet to mock people with disabilities? You must have so many potatoes" (Dolan 2). This image included a new picture of Heidi as a teenager. Another photo circulating around social media is of Heidi and her mother Liz with a caption that reads,"Gets offended for becoming a meme, becomes a meme" (Dolan 3).
This article portrays how speaking up against discrimination of Down syndrome individuals on social media can cause more discrimination for that individual. Social media is an outlet that allows the users freedom of speech. Even though Facebook has rules and regulations many of them are not enforced. It is stated right in their rules of conduct any images that involve hate speech will be removed. There is a vast majority of hate speech that discriminates against individuals with Down syndrome, but yet social media is still allowing this information to remain on the site. Instead, social media is demanding that a woman such as the one referring to Diana to remove pictures of her child participating in a event. There was not any form of hate speech, violent organizations, or threats being sent out by her photo. It is clearly seen daily on social media that hate speech and threats are being sent out to discriminate against Down syndrome, but Facebook is not solving the problem they are simply encouraging it.

Q: Trying to make a class called "List", but the list() function is breaking it class List {
  public function hello()
  {
    return "hello";
  }
}

$list = new List;

echo $list::hello();

Gives Error:
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'List' (T_LIST), expecting identifier (T_STRING) in /home/WtGTRQ/prog.php on line 3

Changing "List" to "Lizt" fixes the issue.
I sadly understand that Php functions are case-insensitive, but I really don't want to make a List object a Lizt object... Is there some way to circumvent this without renaming my class?

A: List is a restricted PHP word.
You cannot use any of the following words as constants, class names, function or method names.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.keywords.php
--
To answer your question, you will have to change your list class name to something else. MyList, CarList, Listing, etc..

Marking 100 years of the Antiquities Act
The tower rises on the cliff, elegant as any European castle, even after standing a thousand years.
"There may have been more people living in the Four Corners in 1250 than there are now," says LouAnn Jacobson, manager of Canyons of the Ancients National Monument and the Anasazi Heritage Center.
Wow! That'll make a person catch her breath, not from the climb up the mesa to the tower, but because she realizes whole cultures existed in the Four Corners before anybody thought of her.
She has time to ponder that thought because of a unique conservation law, the Antiquities Act of 1906. Signed by Teddy Roosevelt 100 years ago, the Antiquities Act made possible an organized effort to preserve America's important cultural and natural resources.
Under this law, the President of the United States may declare as national monuments "historic landmarks, historic and prehistoric structures, and other objects of historic or scientific interest situated on lands controlled by the Government of the United States…."
The Antiquities Act came about for several reasons, according to Dr. Larry Baker, executive director of the San Juan County Archaeological Research Center and Library at Salomon Ruins in Bloomfield, N.M.
Formal interest in conservation began with the Lewis and Clark expedition. At that time, people focused preservation efforts on the East. After the Civil War, they began taking an interest in cultural and natural resources in the West. Newly created organizations like the U.S. Geological Survey and the Bureau of American Ethnology grew concerned about protecting these sites.
In 1900, President Theodore Roosevelt saw the need for a quick way to set aside important sites without wrangling protective bills through Congress. He asked for the power to create national monuments.
"The first was Devil's Tower in Wyoming," says Terry Nichols, park ranger at Aztec Ruins National Monument in Aztec, N.M. "The second was El Morro, in New Mexico. Chaco Canyon was the fifth." Aztec Ruins made the list in 1923, Canyons of the Ancients in 1999.
Canyons of the Ancients may have been late to the list of national monuments, but its cultural resources are unmatched in the country.
"We have the highest site density in the United States," explains Jacobson. "About 110 archaeological sites per square mile in some parts of the monument."
The Antiquities Act provided penalties for people caught vandalizing cultural and historic sites on federal land. And it did one more thing.
"The basic legislation doesn't just set aside lands for no reason," emphasizes Paul Reed, preservation archaeologist for the Center for Desert Archaeology in Tucson, Ariz. "(Land) is set aside to be studied in a scientific framework to lead to an understanding of …how to conserve (it.")
Under the Antiquities Act, anyone excavating on federal land must obtain a research permit. "They would submit a research design," explains Baker.
"They would need to spell out how much they would excavate, and why," adds Jacobson. "They would have to show a curation agreement to demonstrate how artifacts and excavation records would be preserved in a museum."
Besides research guidelines, the Antiquities Act spawned further conservation legislation and policy. The 1916 Organic Act created the National Park Service. "The National Park System grew quite a bit, after that," says Nichols.
The Historic Preservation Act of 1966 supplemented the Antiquities Act, as did the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979, and The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990. Each regulation further expanded and clarified the Antiquities Act.
States and municipalities use these federal laws to develop protection for sites in their jurisdictions, according to Baker. Some of these local statutes also guide research and resource development, such as subdivisions and gas exploration, on private lands.
"I think most of the archaeological research in the country relies on these laws," muses Reed.
Very true. The Antiquities Act profoundly affected archaeology as a scientific discipline. To explain how, the Anasazi Heritage Center in Dolores has opened an exhibit called "Archaeology Grows Up: 1906-2006."
"At the turn of the (20th) Century, archaeologists collected whole pieces," says Jacobson.
Museums fought over artifacts. Researchers ignored small objects and didn't take field notes.
That changed in the 1930s when Chicago's Field Museum sent Martin to the Lowry Pueblo near Cortez. He took notes, and worked with an architect to discover the pueblo's layout.
Next, archaeologists began paying attention to artifact layers in individual rooms, noting relationships of objects.
That led them to examine how rooms related within a community.
Today, the National Science Foundation and Washington State University have developed The Village Project. Archaeologists across regions examine how communities interacted. Researchers at Aztec and Salmon ruins, Chaco Canyon, and Canyons of the Ancients have joined this project.
"Archaeology Grows Up" includes many items that show this evolution, including some borrowed from the Field Museum and the Lowry dig. Other artifacts come from the collections at the Heritage Center. The exhibit contains historic photographs of digs around Canyons of the Ancients.
"People will see a nice variety of things. We have every kind of site," says Jacobson. "Hunter gathers, pit houses, field houses, pueblos with 400 rooms. There's limited evidence of paleo Indians from 10,000 B.C. "
She pauses. "And there's still a lot to learn. With the Village Project we're looking at the larger picture, of how people interacted with the landscape."
The Antiquities Act of 1906 will ensure that the research goes on, for scientific advancement, recreation, and many other things.
"These are places where we can connect with people who passed before us," says Nichols. "We can connect with ourselves."
"It's not about sites, it's about cultural values," adds Baker. "Preserving our national and world heritage."
From May 2006.

Seven of our Upper School Chorus members recently auditioned with hundreds of other local students to take part in this year's All Shore Chorus. Six of our students were selected and spent an evening and the following day rehearsing with a guest conductor from University of Mary Washington before performing in a concert that evening. Lots of hard work, but well worth the experience for our student musicians. Congrats, everyone!


The Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut.
Irene Shum, Curator and Collections Manager at the Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut.
Yayoi Kusama's "Narcissus Garden" at the Philip Johnson Glass House.
Yayoi Kusama's Narcissus Garden at the Philip Johnson Glass House.
This hour, we take a tour of the unique 49-acre property. We learn about its history in New Canaan, Connecticut, and discuss its ongoing role in supporting and sustaining the arts. Have you visited the Glass House? If so, what did you think?
We also sit down with author Marc Wortman to discuss a lesser-known part of Johnson's life -- his time as a fascist.
Zaha Hadid, the Pritzker-winning architect whose designs — both realized and unrealized — profoundly influenced the world of architecture, has died in Miami after contracting bronchitis and experiencing a sudden heart attack, according to her architecture firm.
Pre-eminent as a building style during the 1800s, Gothic Revival architecture is often overlooked today. Henry Austin, Ithiel Town, and Alexander Jackson Davis, three of the most important American architects working in the Gothic style, all designed significant buildings in Connecticut.


I am going to major in Business.
I thought it was best for me because I have the same work ethic as my mom and I am the most interested in that field of work because of that.
My favorite memory was winning the Beats pill plus from the positive referral drive.
I am so excited to get a great education and play the sport I love!
What advice do you have for incoming freshmen or future seniors?
My advice is to work hard in your classes and do not be behind on work. If you get good grades and do a lot of extracurricular activities, you will have no problem getting into your dream school.
What is it like to be a softball commit?
It takes a lot of time and effort to get looked at by college coaches. Either you're going to tons of camps, or going to the [batting] cages to work on skills by yourself. You have practice all the time, around 3-4 times a week to better your skills. In the end, it's all worth it because you can have the opportunity to be debt free when you leave college like me!

Earthly Paradise
Oil on canvas. XVI century
Bassano (Workshop Of)
This is a painting of rather mediocre quality for which the artists drew on several ricordi from the stock at the family bottega. To cite an example, the horse and pair of dogs on the right specifically repeat the ones that appear in a similar position in Adam Being Reprimanded (P21). This juxtaposition of standardised models explains the obvious problems of scale in the depiction of the animals,
Still Life with Animals
Oil on canvas. 1680 - 1690
Hondecoeter, Melchior D´
The painting featured here is an example of the characteristic compositions with poultry in which D`Hondecoeter specialised. This type of painting was brought to Utrecht in 1619 by Roeland Savery (1576-1639), who had, in turn, been introduced to this genre -of which the most prominent and influential practitioner was Frans Snyders (1592-1667)- while at the court of Rudolf II of Prague.D`Hondecoete
Lady wearing a Cross
Oil on canvas. Ca. 1567
Mor, Anthonis
Figura de más de medio cuerpo, en pie; lleva cruz de pedrería al cuello, pendiente de un collar de chatones, rubíes y perlas; diadema de pedrería; cuello y puños, de puntas; mangas de color gris verdoso con adornos dorados y rojos.
Saint Stephen in the Synagogue
Oil on panel. 1555 - 1562
Juanes, Juan de (Vicente Juan Masip)
This painting formed part of the Altar Piece of San Esteban (Valencia), the most celebrated work by Juanes, who came from Valencia. The scenes included the most important episodes in the life of the saint, considered to be the first martyr of Christianity. According to the Acts of the Apostles , the preaching of Saint Stephen aroused the suspicions of the Sanhedrin and he was accused of destroying
Painted for the base of the main altarpiece of San Esteban in Valencia (P00838, P00839, P00840, P00841 and P00842), Inspired by Leonardo, both in the definition of the space and in the eloquent expressiveness of the apostles, it also shows Juanes's close relationship with Raphael. In keeping with traditional iconography in Spain, he focussed the scene on Jesus, serene and triumphant at the moment
Saint Stephen led to his Martyrdom
A depiction of the New Testament story (Acts 7, 58) Saint Stephen was condemned to stoning after angering the priests of the Sanhedrin assembly. This scene represents the moment when he is taken out of the city and led to martyrdom, by the executioners at the doors of Jerusalem, just as Christ was, on Calvary. Juanes differs from his father´s style I by accenting the ugliness of the executioners,
Oil on panel. Ca. 1566
Morales, Luis de
It is not known when or how these two paintings -Saint John the Baptist and Saint Juan de Ribera (P947)- came to be the property of Luisa Enríquez, but their common provenance has never been seen as an indication of a link with the same group of art works. However, the technical study that was recently carried out on the two panels shows that they are directly and unequivocally related in t
The Martyrdom of Saint Stephen
This painting forms part of the Altarpiece of San Esteban (Valencia), along with other scenes from the saint´s life (P00838, P00839, P00841 and P00842), as well as the Last Supper (P00846). According to the Acts of the Apostles, Saint Stephen was condemned to stoning after angering the priests of the Sanhedrin assembly. While he commends his soul to God, the executioners angrily stone Stephen, who
The Baptism of Christ
Navarrete "el Mudo", Juan Fernández
This panel was the first painting produced by the artist when he started working for Philip II at the monastery of El Escorial. He had just returned from Italy, and already displayed a remarkable ability to blend the various elements that together shaped his Escorial style: the landscape has Netherlandish echoes, whilst the figures are handled in a Mannerist style reminiscent of Raphael and Michel
Titian (Tiziano Vecellio)
Titian painted his first self-portrait before leaving for Rome in 1545. However, it was after his Roman stay that he showed the most interest in disseminating his image in order to fully establish his position in a context of intense rivalry with Michelangelo. In 1549 Paolo Giovio acquired a self-portrait by the artist for his Museo in Como, while in 1550 the painter had another one sent to Charle
Triptych of the Pietà, St John and St Mary Magdalene
Morales, Luis de (And Workshop)
Large-format versions of the Virgin holding the dead body of Christ, like those at Badajoz Cathedral and at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, gave way in Morales's oeuvre to smaller compositions on the same subject, with half-length figures shown on a striking background of rigorous black. Against this, the two figures and the upright of the cross are contrasted with strong lighti
Bassano, Jacopo (Jacopo Dal Ponte); Bassano, Francesco
This work portrays the well-known New Testament parable (Luke, 15: 11-32) illustrating the repentance of the sinner and the virtues of forgiveness. The pretext for the setting is the banquet given by the father to celebrate the return of the son, in which, according to the gospel, a fatted calf was served. The painter chose to recreate the festive nature of the event, ignoring the angry protests o
Emperor Maximilian II
Oil on canvas. 1550
The son of Ferdinand of Austria, then King of Romans and next emperor (1556-1564) of the Germanic Holy Roman Empire, and his wife Anna Jagellonica, queen of Hungary and Bohemia, was born in Vienna on 1 August 1527. He was educated in Spain alongside his cousin, the future Philip II, and from an early age practiced the profession of arms, later on entering combat on the side of Emperor Charles V (1
Saint Juan de Ribera
Oil, Tempera on panel. Ca. 1566
It is not known when or how these two paintings -Saint Juan de Ribera and Saint John the Baptist (P950)- came to be the property of Luisa Enríquez, but their common provenance has never been seen as an indication of a link with the same group of art works. However, the technical study that was recently carried out on the two panels shows that they are directly and unequivocally related in t
The Burial of Saint Stephen
This painting forms part of the Altarpiece of San Esteban (Valencia), along with other scenes from the saint´s life (P00838, P00839, P00841 and P00842), as well as the Last Supper (P00846). This panel, shows the moment when the body of Saint Stephen is placed in the tomb by a group of eight men. The composition of the scene recalls the Entombment of Christ in the arrangement of the figures and the
Lady with a Yellow Flower
Cronenburch, Adriaen Van
These four portraits of women, two double ones and two single ones (P02074, P02075 and P02076) presented standing and down to kneelevel, use the same architectural setting. The series is given visual unity by the use of a central niche and two more, barely visible ones at the sides, separated by masonry pillars and decorated with small lions' heads in the centre.This use of shared elements is prob
The Triumph of the Eucharist over Idolatry
Rubens, Peter Paul
In 1625, Archduchess Isabel Clara Eugenia commissioned Rubens to design a series of twenty tapestries for the Monastery of the Descalzas Reales in Madrid. The subject was the Eucharist, a leading Catholic dogma that the infanta defended in her role as sovereign princess of the southern Netherlands. Rubens conceived the scenes like victory marches, as if the cloths were hanging from baroque archite
Saint Stephen accused of Blasphemy
Juan de Juanes depicts the episode in the Acts of the Apostles when Saint Stephen declared before the Sanhedrin: "I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing on the right hand of God." When they heard him the priests "cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears and rushed together at him" (Acts 7, 56 and 57). The classical architecture of the temple is a striking element in the com

Victory in Kuala Lumpur but no cigars in Guantanamo.
Billed as a 'court of conscience,' the Kuala Lumpur War crimes tribunal proved to be a gathering of sharp, knowledgeable and equally kind hearted, talents from the legal and human rights world. Over four days, a packed court room in KL, heard testimony from a series witnesses. Men and women from Iraq and the UK who had endured Viet Cong style torture – all supposedly in the name of America's 'security.' The accounts of pulped limbs, sexual degradation, Medieval shackling and psychopathic torments inflicted by the powerful on the innocent and the weak, on more than one occasion, drew gasps of shock, from the court.
And then, at last the moment of truth. The first panel of judges in the world to hear the case against George Bush's regime found he and seven cohorts unanimously guilty on all counts. Let's re cap on who was in the dock.
John Choo Yoo, former deputy Assistant Attorney General.
All the above have been charged and found guilty of the crime of torture and war crimes, in contravention of the convention against Torture 1984, the third Geneva Convention of 1949 and other treaties. For the full charges visit here for the War crimes list.
Bush et al connived in the commission of acts of torture and cruel and degrading and inhuman treatment. The 2002 to 2003 infamous 'torture memos that passed between attorneys and the office of the Sec of state Rumsfeld were not as the weaselling lawyers may allege merely advice. Remits from the attorney generals office are far more than advice to the politicians – they are orders. The Presidential office not should but must adhere to the advice. If of course it is legal.
Meanwhile, as Washington connived to round up ever more civilians in Afghanistan, Iraq and indeed across the globe – the detainees we heard from this week – and how many thousands of others? – were subjected to severe physical and mental pain and cruel and inhuman acts over log periods, as a result.
And still the question hung in the air over all the proceedings. Why? Why did the American political system and the army round up men like Moazzem Begg or women like Jameela Abbas of Iraq. Moazzem is a British former detainee of Guantanamo Bay and now director of the charity Cage Prisoner. He was in Afghanistan to build a children's school with his family for a charitable venture, fled to Pakistan and was snatched by US thugs from Islamabad in 2002. Whilst Jameela, a widowed mother in her fifties was brutally snatched form her home in Kirkuk in 2004 and passed through several terrible American torture bases before being put through a system of 'planned, ordered and committed' war crimes, in Abu Ghraib. Six months she was there without charge.
Moazzem Begg was asked initially by the US thugs of th CIA and the military; 'When was the last time you saw Bin Laden.' Honestly, if it wasn't so sick it would be laughable. This was a standard question put to most if not all detainees; men, women and yes even children. I wonder what they ask of the thousands of men, women and children being tortured right now in secret US torture bases whose names we don't even know? It must be quite a blow to the meat heads running these illegal concentration camps to have to invent other 'reasons' for their acts of terror.
The tribunal orders that reparations commensurate with the irreparable harm and injury, pain and suffering undergone by the Complainant War Crime Victims be paid to them. This is of course just a tribunal of conscience with no real power of enforcement, however it finds the witnesses are entitled ex justtia to the payment of reparations by Bush, Cheney and the rest of them. The tribunal hopes that armed with the findings, the witnesses will in the near future find a state or an international judicial entity able and willing to exercise jurisdiction and to enforce the verdict. The award of reparations will now submitted to the war crimes commission to facilitate the determination and collection of reparations by the complainant war crime victims.
Francis Boyle, of the prosecution, makes no bones about the 'why' of America's addiction to torturing civilians, usually, Muslims. And it's not for information about terror plots, dirty bombs, WMD's, or any of that other BS.
They want to terrorize all those who disagree with their policies. And that includes the American public as well.
You see Jameela Abbas was told, actually told, by a US General on one of the sites where she was tortured, that she had been specially selected for long term abuse. Not because they thought for a second that she had any information on the Iraqi resistance. Because she was a well known female public figure; head of the corporation of unions in government. When it reached the Iraqi public she was at first 'disappeared' then at Abu Ghraib without charge – well, it would just help spread terror of the US troops in homes across the land.
Those who have suffered in this way that I have met, all have great self composure and calm. This is Islam. 'This is from Allah' all the prisoners I meet tell me. The idea that Blair (war criminal – convicted here too), that Bush (war criminal) only becomes brighter and makes even greater sense under oppression. In Islam you fear the creator not the creation.
The faith that is stronger than terror.
Thoughts post verdict quickly turned to the future and the bloody reality of the present. For as Begg told me, when the 169 detainees still in Guantanamo Bay after ten years, hear the verdict they will free strengthened. But what use strength when it won't change their reality one bit? And what of President I-will-shut-Guantanmo-give-me-the-Nobel-Prize Obama? The chain of command from the White House to the animals who kicked the Afghani Taxi driver Diliwar to death for the fun of hearing him sob 'Allah' each time they kicked him – are STILL committing war crimes. Bagram is open. Guantamo Bay – open. And worse is to come warns Francis Boyle looking to the near future and first, near certain Gitmo executions.
'If this happens then for the first time the United states will have Nazi style extermination camps' says Boyle. Exaggeration? This is a legal specialist who is an expert on international law. State murders without due process of people of a particular faith, on 'security' grounds, mimic precisely the acts of the Nazis.
'The Arabs, the Muslims and Asian people of colour are the Jews of today' says Boyle.
After a week of relived horrors and an emotional victory. What remains in the heart and mind in all this madness is the voices of the Muslim survivors. Not victims. Survivors. Each of whom I have met says that the lasting victory is that of Islam. The faith that is stronger than terror. And here in KL, I will always remember too, the love that can flow between human beings of all colours and faiths; when oppression must be resisted and fought.
N.B Tony Blair was found guilty in KL in 2011.

Nikki Reed of "Twilight" fame and Paul McDonald of "American Idol" floral-embroidered-suit fame were married Sunday in Malibu, capping a March-October romance that has nothing to do with their relative ages and everything to do with the whirlwind nature of their relationship.
McDonald, 27, and Reed, 23, got engaged over the summer after meeting in March at the premiere of "Little Red Riding Hood," when he was a contestant on the most recent season of "American Idol." They'd moved in together in May.
"Yesterday was the most amazing day of my life," McDonald said Monday on Twitter. "[E]verything was perfect. I'm officially a MARRIED MAN! Woohoo!"
The bride and groom "couldn't be happier" after getting hitched on a private ranch, surrounded by about friends and family, they told Us Weekly on Sunday. Reed's gown was designed by Tacari, Us reported, a bridal jewelry brand (yes, you read that correctly) that also designed the couple's wedding bands and her engagement ring.
And though McDonald maybe was amazed, Reed related a slightly different vibe: "Yesterday was the most magical day of my life," she tweeted Monday.
Congrats, kids. Keep smiling -- and come November, maybe we'll see you both on the "Breaking Dawn -- Part I" red carpet.

Painkillers will go behind pharmacy counters in 2020
Painkiller tablets such as aspirin, paracetamol and ibuprofen will be placed behind pharmacy counters and no longer be freely available on shelves in France from January 15 2020, it has been confirmed.
The medicines will also contain clearer warnings on best practice, the risk of overdose, the maximum recommended dose, and other warnings for at-risk patients such as pregnant women. Paracetamol is toxic for foetuses from the sixth month of pregnancy.
The measure comes after medical health agency l'Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament (ANSM) recommended it in October this year, and after consultations with pharmacies and patient focus groups.
In a statement in October, the agency said: "The ANSM would like the drugs to no longer be placed in free access and instead be placed behind the counter of the pharmacy, which would strengthen its role of advising patients."
From January 15 2020, the medicines will still be available to buy without prescription, but only from behind the counter, and not from open shelves. This will mean that pharmacists will be able to "ask the right questions", the ANSM said.
Some pharmacies already keep painkillers and anti-inflammatories behind the counter, but others have still had them freely available on open shelves.
Sales of these types of painkiller drugs - including those sold in France under brand names such as Doliprane and Dafalgan - have increased by 50% over the past 10 years, according to the ANSM.
In July, the agency announced that the medicines would also display clearer health warnings, including advice on the risk of overdose, with the simple phrase: "Overdose = Danger" printed on packs.
Paracetamol is the active ingredient in many painkillers. While the drugs are commonly used to treat mild pain and inflammation, taking more than the recommended dose can cause liver damage, and even death.
In July, newspaper Le Parisien reported on the case of a 22-year-old who required a liver transplant after taking six or seven paracetamol tablets everyday for several months.
And in 2017, a 22-year-old woman, Naomi Musenga from Strasbourg (Bas-Rhin), died from an accidental paracetamol overdose in a controversial case that saw Ms Musenga rejected by a Samu operator when she called for help.
The agency said that 32 deaths had been recorded due to ibuprofen misuse in the past 18 years, as well as almost 400 cases of health complications.
In a new statement, the ANSM said: "These medicines are safe and effective when they are used correctly, but present risks when they are badly used. This measure forms part of our action plan to increase the safety of medicines, [including] most notably the arrival of overdose warnings and liver damage risk on boxes of paracetamol in the next few months."
The agency reminded the public that for a healthy adult weighing more than 50 kilos, the maximum paracetamol dose is three grams per 24 hours, with a gap of at least six hours between each dose.
It added that the maximum length of time anyone should take the medicine without a prescription is "three days in case of fever, and five days in the case of pain".

Cost-cutting efforts first announced by Avid three months ago are starting to take shape, as the company revealed it has shifted much of its product development, R&D and customer support overseas, expanding those departments with new workplaces in Asia and Europe, writes Pro Sound News US edition's Clive Young. A reported 250 new employees have been hired to staff new facilities in the Philippines, Taiwan and Poland, and a new administrative support centre has also been created in Boca Raton, Florida.
Avid first indicated changes were afoot in early March when the company announced plans to save up to $68 million annually in coming years by improving its efficiency. Up to two-thirds of that would be realised by layoffs and the resultant closing or downsizing of multiple offices – an effort that the company expects will cost $25 million to complete over the next year. That said, the company reports that $33 million of those annualised costs savings had already been executed on by end of Q1 2016.
Avid's new global shared services and support centre is based in Manila, Philippines, where the company's technical support team will provide 24-hour coverage for customers worldwide; team members reportedly have an average of 10 years' experience with their product specializations.
Meanwhile, Taipei City, Taiwan is the home of a new hardware design centre, providing proximity to the company's supply chain.
A new R&D facility is located in Szczecin, Poland near a number of universities which the company plans to work with to develop new software and hardware for real-time video and graphics. Additionally, the Szczecin office includes senior staff for engineering, customer care and professional services.
Serving customers is key to any business, but as Avid continues a transition to a subscription model, it will only become even more crucial. With that in mind, however, there are signs that the subscription strategy is taking hold. The company's Q1 2016 results noted that user adoption of the MediaCentral platform is up 51% over the same quarter in 2015, with digital sales up 46% and the number of paying subscribers up three times year-on-year as well. All of that was part of a larger announcement of Q1 2016 revenue of $143.5 million – a 20% jump over Q1 2015 revenue of $119.6 million.


On first listen to Don't Go Far, I was instantly sold. I had barely got half way through the song before I knew I'd already fell in love. Think slow Sunday vibes in a coffee shop and you've got yourself the perfect accompanying track with Don't Go Far.
Charlie Cunningham gives serious Ben Howard vibes with his latest single. There's a gentle guitar throughout the track which provides a light indie feel and even a slight folk influence. In the last 2 months alone, Cunningham's racked up 5 million streams and with a new album set for release on June 7th, Don't Go Far will only help propel his listening figures.
I can't wait to hear the rest of the album and if it's anything like this single, then I'm sure it won't disappoint.
