If you're interested in exploring BDSM (bondage/discipline, domination/submission, sadism/masochism), you'll need to understand the lingo. The glossary below will make it easier for you to parse the technical terminology as well as the not-so-scientific vernacular — aka, slang — you'll need to speak BDSM.
Aftercare When a scene is over, aftercare is the emotional and physical care that's administered, usually by a top. Proper aftercare may be used to prevent a drop.
Age Play When one person takes on an older role and one person takes on a younger role, such as a father-daughter scenario.
BDSM An umbrella term used to describe a sexual practice that involves the use of physical control, psychological power, or pain. It typically includes the components of bondage and discipline, domination and submission, or sadism or masochism.
Bondage and Discipline A type of BDSM practice that incorporates bondage (tying, binding, or restraining someone) and discipline (punishing a submissive partner when they break a rule).
Bottom The person in a scene who follows the orders and receives the sensations.
Breath Play A form of play when one participant controls their breath. This may include choking or holding the breath.
Consent Agreeing to certain acts in a BDSM scene or relationship. Practitioners believe that consent is what separates BDSM from assault.
Contract An arrangement that outlines the rules and structures of a BDSM relationship. It may be written or oral.
Dom A dominant who is male.
Domina A dominant who is female and embraces a feminine gender role.
Dominance and Submission (D/S) A term for the behaviors or rituals that a submissive person follows in a BDSM relationship. In D/S, one person usually has power over another.
Dominant A person who has the authority in a BDSM relationship or scene.
Drop The physical or emotional exhaustion that takes place after a scene. Both tops and bottoms may experience a drop. Crying, feeling sad, and physical shaking are all signs of a drop.
Dungeon A location where BDSM play takes place (usually in a person's home or at a club).
Dungeon Monitor A person (or group of people) who supervises BDSM activities at a club or play party to make sure the acts are safe and consensual.
Edge Play BDSM acts that are considered more intense or dangerous, such as breath play.
Female Dominance When a woman takes the dominant role in a BDSM relationship or scene.
Female Submission BDSM activity in which a woman submits to a sexual partner.
Fetish An obsession with a specific experience, body part, or object.
Fetish Wear The clothing worn by those who practice BDSM (usually leather attire or other role-playing costumes).
Gender Play A type of BDSM play when an individual in a scene takes on the role of the opposite gender.
Hard Limits An activity that a person in a BDSM relationship absolutely won't do. A hard limit can't be negotiated.
Impact Play A type of BDSM play that involves striking the body. This can be done with a hand, paddle, cane, whip, flogger, or other instrument.
Kink Nonconventional sexual practices. BDSM is often referred to as kink.
Master The person who has control over a slave in a consensual master-slave relationship.
Male Dominance BDSM acts when the dominant partner is a man, also called maledom.
Male Submission BDSM activities when the submissive participant is a man, also referred to as malesub.
Masochist An individual who likes or becomes sexually gratified by their own pain or humiliation.
Munch An informal meeting or party, often at a public place, where people interested in BDSM can mingle.
Play A term used to describe the BDSM acts themselves.
Play Party A social gathering where guests can engage in BDSM activity.
Pro Domme A woman who is a professional top and dominant.
Protocol A rule or rules that people practicing BDSM agree to follow.
Role Play When one or more people take on a different identity during a scene. Examples may include teacher-student, doctor-patient, or boss-employee role plays.
Sadism and Masochism This subset of BDSM involves inflicting pain or humiliation for the purpose of pleasure or sexual gratification.
Sadist A person who enjoys or becomes sexually aroused by inflicting pain or humiliation on someone else.
Safe, Sane, and Consensual (SSC) This phrase describes what the BDSM community considers ethical behavior. Kink enthusiasts stress that activities must always be safe, sane, and consensual.
Safe Word An agreed upon word or phrase that a bottom, sub, or slave can say during a scene to stop the activity or session immediately. Some common safe words are "red," "red light," "pineapple," and "banana."
Soft Limits A limit that's more flexible than a hard limit. It might be an act that a person is hesitant to perform but may be willing to try.
Scene The actual BDSM activities or encounters that take place are known as a scene.
Slave A person who gives up total control of one or more parts of their life to a master.
Submissive Someone who submits to a dominant person in a BDSM relationship or scene. Submissive can be shortened to sub.
Switch A person who sometimes plays a top and sometimes plays a bottom in a BDSM scene.
Top The person who performs the BDSM acts in a scene.
Topping From the Bottom When a bottom tries to control a scene even though it was agreed that the top would be in charge.
24-7s When individuals in a relationship engage in some form of BDSM at all times (24 hours a day, 7 days a week).
Vanilla Sex Used by people in the BDSM community to label sexual behavior that doesn't involve kink.

Jewelry artisan Susan Chiodo was born in Racine, Wisconsin. She has always had a love for jewelry, still possessing the first ring she bought at the tender age of five.
Susan originates from a long line of artists, craftsmen, and inventors. She graduated from Oral Roberts University with a bachelor's degree in commercial art concentrating on sculpture for her senior show. It wasn't until Susan turned 40, however, that she combined her passion for jewelry and sculpture with her heritage as a craftsman. She began simply, with ten bracelets that quickly grew into an entire business ON EARTH jewelry. These small "sculptures" combine metals, precious metal clay, leather and semi- precious stones to define Susan's love for "imperfectly perfect" distressed jewelry.
"I would love for my jewelry to be the favorite piece worn every day," explains the artist.
Desiring to create heirloom-quality pieces, Susan furthered her education at GIA (Gemological Institute of America) earning a certificate as an accredited jewelry professional and taking multiple classes about metal fabrication and precious metal clay.
She presently resides in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin with her husband Trace, also an artist and two daughters, Olivia and Sophia.
Susan has been a member of Lemon Street Gallery since 2018.

Fast, brutal, daunting - A look at the 100AW Rally stages
Recce day is an important part of any American Rally Association presented by DirtFish National championship weekend. On Thursday, teams took to the stages of the 100 Acre Wood Rally, obeying the 35mph speed limit to gather all of the information they could in two passes to create their notes.
DirtFish has caught up with some of the competitors to see what they're expecting this weekend, and there seems to be two things on most competitors' minds: forecasted rain and the dreaded Southern Loop.
Alex Gelsomino
Co-driver to Ken Block, seven-time event winner
The event features two very different days and stage synopses.
Day one is very fast and flowing, with very well built roads that feature a very smooth surface with some well-defined camber. SS2 is probably the most challenging stage of the first leg due to the high speeds and many crests and small jumps. The repeat of the stages should feature little damage to the road and a well swept surface.
Day two is almost a completely different rally, with some narrower but also rough sections. The grip deteriorates in the middle of the stages, since they are roads that aren't commonly used the rest of the year.
The expected wet conditions will create some unpredictable grip as well as some even rougher conditions when the stages are repeated in the afternoon. Last year there were many punctures on those stages (ran in the opposite direction) and I suspect the same will be this year.
It will be critical to stay out of trouble and keep the car in the middle of the road.
Pat Moro
11-time ARA National entrant
The first time I came and I ran here, it was my second rally, coming from Sno*Drift. The first year I ran here, they actually had the big round haybale chicanes. And those were incredible. Those were great, I'd love to see them come back with those big round haybales and use those chicanes.
The majority of the roads we're running this year, I think we ran back in 2017. Everything seems to be pretty dry, but I think they're calling for rain. So right now, we're just looking at how that's going to affect in looking back and looking at the notes.
Generally, looking at it, these new virtual chicanes with RallySafe are going to be an interesting concept. I'm not 100% a fan of the location of them, it seems to me that they put them in the best flowing part of the stage, and then they left the high-speed stuff wide open. But other than that, the organizers have a lot of work there to do. So I don't want to take away from them on that.
As we all look at Southern Loop [during this recce], it's historically been a stage that has changed the outcome of a rally. There's about a mile-ling section in the middle there that's just brutal. If you talk to the old-school guys, they'll say it's a great stage, it's a big separator between it all. If you talk to the guys that have fancy cars that have big splitters on the front and stuff like that, it becomes a very expensive stage. So I think that Southern Loop will live up to its reputation. I think that [stage] will probably be a big determining thing in the outcome.
I would say that Pigeon Roost [will be my favorite stage this year]. It's always been one of my favorite stages. I think they were limited with what [organizers] could grab this year, but they've done a really good job of the stages. The roads are seem to be pretty forgiving, and it is going to be fast. We're going to see some pretty high speeds.
I don't really think there's been a lot of changes [over the years]. I mean, the roads change, but the consistency out of the organizers, and the volunteers of this event, I think, is the reason that, you know, that's probably why I've done it so many times.
Micah Nickelson
11-time ARA Regional entrant
I don't have the greatest record here at 100AW but we have ran these stages quite a lot. Dust is always on my mind when I come to 100AW but it looks like the rain forecast for Friday morning will definitely keep the dust down for the whole weekend.
All the stages here are generally wide and fast but two stages specifically I have my eye on.
Floyd's Tower is one of the fastest stages here but is easy to get a wheel wrong/miss a note etc and easily end your rally. The other stage is Southern loop. It starts off easy enough but quickly becomes the roughest stage at 100AW with lots of water crossings after rain. It's pretty common for cars to missing parts after running Southern loop.

World crises at climax: Bad news for our future
The behavior of the great powers in the international system, emerging threats to international security, declining expectations from international organizations, surfacing nationalism and protectionism and arising trade wars all signal that something is approaching or the world is quickly approaching a point of total disarray.
By	Kılıç Buğra Kanat 2 March 2019
Kılıç Buğra Kanat
In one of the most memorable comedies of Turkish cinema, "G.O.R.A.," one character's line has since become a hallmark of Turkish popular culture. In this Cem Yılmaz science-fiction-comedy, this character emerges randomly in different scenes and warns the main characters, particularly the commander of the space ship, Commander Logar, about an object approaching the spaceship, indicating a looming threat (Komutan Logar, bir cisim yaklaşıyor efendim).
After each and every warning the main characters are annoyed and irritated by the character and try to kick him out of the room. Looking at current discussions on the future of the international system, coming chaos in global affairs and the increasing unpredictability and uncertainty of U.S. foreign policy, the current state of affairs time and again remind us of that famous line of a coming threat or threats to the world.
For some, like Robert Kagan, it is the return of normalcy in international relations, as he titles his most recent book, "Jungle Grows Back." Thus, the Cold War years were just a parenthesis in the long history of humanity, when the major powers suffered from war fatigue, economic destruction and the introduction of nuclear weapons to the equation made them reconsider their previous strategies.
Of course, in the meantime the U.S. assumed roles in international security and economy that it refrained from for its entire history. Now, the U.S. does not want those roles and the other major powers desire going back to the factory settings of the international relations. Ian Bremmer at the height of the global financial meltdown described this new situation in his book "Every Nation for Itself: What Happens when No One Leads the World."
It is not certain when every state around the world started to reconsider its policies by taking into account these changes, but today it is not an assumption or projection but a reality on the ground. Every state knows today an object is approaching, and every state is willing to take some precautions to handle these risks to its national wealth, security and stability.
This debate on the future of the world order reached one of the highest points this week as a result of multiple developments in various parts of the world. The absence of any effective mechanisms to manage and resolve conflicts and the increasing irrelevance of the U.N. system to handle crises in different regions once more time revealed itself.
The first of these incidents took place in Kashmir, one of the most complicated ethnic and territorial conflicts. Although some considered the issue a frozen conflict with different dotted lines on the Google map, the situation quickly escalated after the dogfight between Pakistani and Indian jets last week. Two nuclear powers in South Asia exchanged fire, which led to an Indian jet being shot down and its pilot detained. The video surfaced after the incident and quickly circulated in social media in our globalized world, resulting in nationalist reactions in India. The situation demonstrated latent conflicts that can quickly restart due to provocations even between two nuclear powers.
Restraint turns out to be the only hope to prevent escalation. While this crisis was taking place between two nuclear powers, President Trump was trying to reach an agreement with Kim Jong Un of North Korea to denuclearize the Korean peninsula. The meeting ended abruptly without an agreement. Some criticized the U.S. administration for lack of preparation and planning ahead of the meetings, while Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that Kim was not ready for a deal, starting another period of unpredictability and uncertainty for another major crisis.
In the meantime, the U.S. and China try to negotiate an agreement to prevent the trade war – negotiations that are considered the best hope to prevent the return of mercantilism in world politics. The outcome will determine global economic stability, and there is not much optimism about the future. In the midst of all these, the U.S. and Russia blocked each other's resolutions in the U.N. Security Council on the crisis in Venezuela, demonstrating one more time that the U.N. Security Council is the place for rhetorical action and vetoing maneuvers.
The game they play does not even look like a chess match anymore, it always lacked sophistication but now it is too monotonous, tiresome and tiring. Instead of a chess game, debates in the U.N. Security Council sound like angry birds, but the game actually looks like Atari's old Pong game. And while all this is taking place, yes something is approaching Commander Logar.

In cooperation with the EU, the SETA Foundation & Leopold Weiss Institute released in September 2018 the European Islamophobia Report 2018. While many surveys already point out the growing danger of right-wing terrorism, none of them mentions the anti-Muslim ideological framework working behind this trend. The European Islamophobia Report 2018 aims at filling this gap by analysing how the banalization of Islamophobic discourse in the European public sphere paves the way for violent actions against Muslim and their institutions.
On January 21, 2020, MEP Magid Magid will host the panel "Countering Anti-Muslim Racism in Europe" at the European Parliament, Brussels. Drawing on the European Islamophobia Report 2018, this event will shed light on the rising levels of Islamophobia in European countries. Additionally, the event seeks to address the issue of tackling this growing phenomenon.
Enes Bayraklı, the director of European studies at SETA and co-editor of the European Islamophobia Report, will moderate the discussion in company of Farid Hafez (Georgetown University, Bridge Initiative), Amina Easat-Daas (Leicester University) Aristotle Kallis (Keele University), Carmen Aguilera (University of Granada) and Alfredo Alietti (University of Ferrara), who are respectively the authors of the Austrian, Belgian, UK, Spanish and Italian chapters of the European Islamophobia Report 2018.

Businesses that offer money-back guarantees also win: landing an otherwise hesitant customer gives you a chance to prove yourself…and if your products or services are great, what's the risk?
The offer? Simple: If, at the end of 90 days, a client hasn't improved in at least three of five quantifiable fitness measures, they get their money back.
Sounds crazy at first. Pretend you're a personal trainer: You can provide your clients with diet and nutrition advice…but you can't control whether they follow it. You can give your clients "homework" to do outside the gym…but you can't control whether they actually do it. All you can control is what they do when they are with you…and that time is a fraction of the total hours in a 90-day period.
So Halevy Life founder Jeff Halevy took a smart approach to a money-back guarantee–one that works for his clients as well as for his business.
Lean Body Mass. But they don't use calipers. (That's a good thing; if you've ever had someone measure your body fat using calipers you know how uncomfortable and even creepy it feels.) Instead they purchased a hydrostatic tank that provides clinical-grade numbers (and eliminates the creepy factor).
Fat Mass. Same principle. Same tank.
Strength. Jeff measures movements that are indicative of total body strength–core exercises like bench press, squat, and dead lift. While those aren't the only way to assess strength, they do encompass major body movements and are a great gauge of where a client is…and where that client can go.
Cardiopulmonary Fitness. Halevy measures heart-rate recovery. Here's how it works.
Movement Capacity. Movement capacity involves mobility and flexibility.
According to Jeff, flexibility is only the measure of the length of a muscle and doesn't indicate much about how people perform in real life or whether it helps enhance athletic performance. Movement capacity is a tie-in of mobility (range of motion of a muscle) and flexibility.
Then what happens? Clients work with a trainer. Clients can take advantage of the advice of an in-house dietician.
Most importantly, because clients have committed to showing up, they put in the work–and that's where the money-back guarantee starts to make sense.
And that's why it works. Say I'm a client and I decide I won't take Jeff's diet and nutrition advice. In fact, I eat even more than I did before I started. That's OK–as long as I work out three times a week for 90 days, Jeff's program ensures I'll gain strength, gain flexibility, I'll improve my cardio fitness level…if I put in the work, those things will happen.
And that means Jeff has met the terms of his guarantee.
And that also means that seeing improvement will motivate me to keep going, keep improving…and probably start to change my eating habits. The satisfaction of achieving one level of success spurs you on to reach the next level…and the next…and the next.
BOTTOM LINE: Improvement creates an awesome feedback loop that sparks further improvement. This is a win-win and a great learning lesson for business owners looking to kick start things. If you've never tried a money-back guarantee because it seems too risky–especially if it's hard for you to influence, much less control, customer behaviors and usage–what guarantees could you put in place using a similar model?
Happy St. Patrick's Day! But what's it all about?

Q: Drools Workbench - How to push back changes to a cloned repository? I'm working with Drools-Workbench and Kie Execution Server.
Both are installed with Docker from these hub resources:
https://hub.docker.com/r/jboss/kie-server-showcase/
https://hub.docker.com/r/jboss/drools-workbench-showcase/
From Drools Workbench I cloned my github repository and made some changes.
Now I want to commit and push these changes back to the origin.
When I run the bash process on my drools-wb container I see the
.niogit folder and inside it my cloned git folder.
What is the way to do it?

A: Workbench doesn't support pushing to other repos.  You need to clone the KWB repo and then push to the github repo from the new clone.

A: First of all, my company workbench (version 6.4.0.GA) is configured to access using ldap auth. For some reason, git pushes are not working with my ldap user. So I create a new user (called commiter) from Home/User Management, and assign them to develop role.
Then, on my local workbench, I cloned the remote repository, using Authoring/Administration/Repositories/Clone Repository, using the git url, like
git://my-company-wb-url:9418/my-project

Then, I changed on .niogit/my-project.git/configure the lines:
#   url = git://my-company-wb-url:9418/my-project
    url = ssh://commiter@my-company-wb-url:8001/my-project

Also, I commented:
#   sshCommand = ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss

Because the error "Bad protocol 2 host key algorithms '+ssh-dss'"
Finally,
cd .niogit
git --git-dir=my-project.git/ push

And thats all.
Hope it helps.

First Pic! Selena Gomez Steps Out After Her Reported Mental Breakdown
After two months of treatment, Selena Gomez is enjoying the holiday season with her loved ones.
On Tuesday, Gomez's friend and actress Bailee Madison posted a series of photos featuring the "Back to You" singer looking content and healthy during a snowy vacation.
According to TMZ, Gomez is healthy and happy to be home. The site notes that the photos were taken in Big Bear, California.
A source told People magazine, "She's feeling much better and looking forward to getting back to normalcy. She's spending time with friends and family."
In October, TMZ reported that Gomez was hospitalized twice over the past few weeks, due to a low white blood cell count, a possible side effect experienced by kidney transplant patients.
Selena Gomez Seeks Treatment After Recent Hospitalizations
During her second hospital visit, Gomez reportedly suffered an emotional meltdown. At the time, a source told People magazine, "She has had a tough few weeks and the panic attack in the hospital was the tipping point. She realized she needed to seek additional help for her ongoing emotional issues. She's surrounded by close family and has a lot of support. She's doing better now and is seeking treatment on the East Coast."
Over the years, Gomez has been open about her struggle with anxiety and depression. In the March issue of Harper's Bazaar, Selena revealed, "I've had a lot of issues with depression and anxiety, and I've been very vocal about it, but it's not something I feel I'll ever overcome. There won't be a day when I'm like, 'Here I am in a pretty dress — I won!' I think it's a battle I'm gonna have to face for the rest of my life, and I'm okay with that because I know that I'm choosing myself over anything else. I'm starting my year off with that thought."

I just learned of this special issue in Psychological Methods. I am looking forward to reading many of the articles as the idea of "big data" analysis in psychology is important. I am particularly looking forward to reading the article co-authored by Jack McArdle on SEM trees. I am not sure I will understand it, but I know Jack does tremendous work. He was the first person to introduce me to SEM methods many years ago (during the WJ-R project; he taught me SEM, very gently, with a program called COSAN..and then I graduated to LISREL), and he was an awesome teacher---he could make complex stat methods conceptually clear. I also then learned of decision-tree methods (CART, MAR) from Jack, and believe they should be used more in psychological research. This PM issue should be well received by the quantoid readers of this blog.

A Husband & Wife Get Golfing Lessons. –
clickynews November 4, 2022 No Comments
A husband and wife love to golf together, but neither of them are playing like they want to, so they decide to take private lessons.
The husband has his lesson first. After the pro sees his swing, he says, "No, no, no, you're gripping the club way too hard!"
"Well, what should I do?" asks the man.
"Hold the club gently," the pro replied, "just like you'd hold your wife's breast."
The man takes the advice, takes a swing, and WOW!
He hits the ball 250 yds. Straight up the fairway.
The man goes back to his wife with the good news, and the wife can't wait for her lesson.
The next day the wife goes for her lesson. The pro watches her swing and says, "No, no, no, you're gripping the club way too hard."
"What can I do?" asks the wife.
"Hold the club gently, just like you'd hold your husband's penis."
The wife listens carefully to the pro's advice, takes a swing, and THUMP. The ball goes straight down the fairway . . . about 15 ft.
"That was great," the pro says.
"Now, take the club out of your mouth and swing the club like you're supposed to!" says the pro.

Sometimes, you just have to go ahead and post a ton o' photos. This is one of those times. We spent an afternoon exploring the historic town of Santa Paula with James and Lindsey creating some engagement images. Almost everywhere we went, we had people honking and waving...these two are pretty much famous in this town. And why not? They're basically perfect together. I have no more words to describe the awesomeness that ensued. You should really just scroll down and look at the photos.

Tales of the Open Road: Get Real Gang leader Juston Stens on riding his '72 Triumph cross-country to write and record Share the Road
By Kate Bracaglia
Juston Stens | Photo by Ellie Tremple | courtesy of the artist
About 45 minutes before I'm supposed to meet Philly pop rebel Juston Stens for a poolside cocktail at North Shore Beach Club, I get a text: "Kate, I'm so sorry. My van broke down in South Philly. Should we reschedule?"
I'm headed back to South Philly myself, and his van just so happens to be near my neighborhood. So I tell him no worries, we can do the interview as he waits for a tow. It's about 90 degrees out and by the time I reach him, he's already been waiting 4 hours. "They sent a guy out already, but the trailer bed wasn't big enough," he quips, gesturing towards his monolith of a vehicle.
Considering how long he's been waiting, he's in a surprisingly good mood. He apologizes profusely for ruining our pool plans, then eagerly starts describing his new record. When the tow truck arrives, he chats with the driver, then helps push the van into a parking spot post-tow. "I work as a mover, part-time," he tells me, unphased by its enormity. "This is nothing."

The travel delays are nothing too; over the past 3 years, he's experienced much worse as he traveled cross-country on a motorcycle, writing and recording songs for his new LP, Share the Road. A project nearly a half-decade in the making, Share the Road was written and recorded collaboratively with friends across the America, including Jessica Lea Mayfield, David Vandervelde, members of his former band Dr. Dog, Apollo Sunshine, Generationals, and more. It also inspired the documentary I Lay Where I Fall, which details the journey of our intrepid traveler, as he set off to find inspiration on the open road.
The project was first conceived a few years after his departure from Dr. Dog (he bowed out to focus on his own tunes), as he considered his next move. His first LP with The Get Real Gang—his name for a rotating cast of contributors—is an upbeat collection of vintage charmers, recorded in locales in North Carolina and Arizona. For his sophomore effort, he decided to up the ante.
"I started planning in early 2011," he says. "I called everyone I'd ever toured with in Dr. Dog, trying to line up as many people as possible." In the end, Stens recorded 15 songs with different contributors, which make up Share the Road and a bonus EP.
The choice to ride his motorcycle across the country was easy—"I've been riding since I was 19," says Stens, now 37. Still, that doesn't mean he was prepared for exactly what riding cross-country on a vintage 1972 Triumph would entail—which in his case, meant rain storms in Boston and Asheville, NC, plus wicked sand storms on the West Coast.
"On the first leg of my trip, I didn't even have goggles," he says, dead serious. "After the first rain, I of course bought them, and eventually I bought a rain suit."
Otherwise, his belongings were limited to what would fit on his bike, and his back—"I bought two saddlebags, then built a bracket to affix them to the bike," explains Stens, who is also somewhat of a master woodworker. "One side was filled with motorcycle gear, and the other side was filled with recording gear. Then I had a guitar mounted to the back of the bike, with a suitcase on top of it, and a backpack on my back."

With such a rig, clothes were limited to the absolute essentials—two pairs of jeans, three tee-shirts, and underwear. "I threw out and bought new socks throughout," he adds, noting that he reveled in the small measure of success that is being able to discard and buy new socks. For Stens, it's all about the little things.
One of the most challenging aspects of the project was also one of the most exciting—that is, collaborating with a range of musicians whose styles may or may not align with your own.
"Before the trip I sent everyone rough demos of what I was working on, and asked them to pick a song that they felt spoke to them," says Stens. "Some people did and others didn't. Some didn't even listen to the demos at all. At the end of the day though, both approaches were nice."
Collaborators included both people Stens had long admired but never worked with before, such as Jim Eno from Spoon; others were long-time friends like Dmitri Manos of Dr. Dog and pal Bradford Trojan, the latter of whom, Stens tells me, he met circa 1995 when Trojan sent him a fan letter for his work in an New Jersey punk group. "I knew him since I was 17 but we had never recorded that much together," he says. "So it felt like a homecoming, in a way."
Stens describes the recording sessions as a mix of different energy levels; "one of the biggest challenges," he says, "is that people would react differently to what I was doing. Some people would just jump into my shoes, uninvited," he laughs—"and just start giving me their opinions about what I should do. And then other people were really reserved and would say 'well, I don't know, this is your project—what do you want to do?' And I'd be like, 'I don't know either, but let's go crazy!"
"Strange Love," recorded with alt-country crooner Jessica Lea Mayfield, went through a massive transformation from rough idea to demo—"I started out a little awkward, because the last time I saw her [during tour with Generationals], our sound guy made out with her the whole night." He pauses. "They're married now though, so I guess it worked out." He grins.
The tune—a breezy love song that pairs their vocals—was inspired by their time on the road together, and tells the story of two travelers who meet repeatedly in different cities across the globe. "It's weird being in a band and visiting cities where you don't know anyone—except for other artists who are also passing through," says Stens, explaining the impetus behind the tune.
Other songs were recorded in true DIY fashion, complete with field sounds. "Blink of an Eye," recorded with Nashville songwriter David Vandervelde, was completed as Vandervelde's family was building a cabin in the Tennessee mountains; Stens hiked into the vastness and recorded the vocals alone with nature. "That was awesome," he says. "You can hear the crickets chirping on the record."
Share the Road was recorded August through December 2011; afterwards, Stens tells me, it took another full year to get everything formatted and ready for mixing. He ended up with just 10 tracks on Road because that's how many would fit on a vinyl record. The rest will follow as a bonus EP.
The record is being put out digitally by Eschatone Records, a small label he was attracted to because they were really excited about the project. Limited edition cassettes are being released by Stens himself and include all 15 tracks.
"The hard thing about being in a band is trying not to disappear," says Stens, who's aware of the time lapse between his last record and Road. Still, he doesn't regret his voyage one bit. "You invest so much into a project, you want it to matter," he says.

We know that Michael was joking about trying to get as many women pregnant as he could (or was he?), but we have to give him major props for getting tested on his own!
Before trying to conceive with his beautiful wife Luisana Lopilato, Michael took the initiative to go ahead and get a full male fertility workup. That shows a lot of initiative. I mean, really.. How many of us have husbands or boyfriends that would willingly go to the doctor on their own for something like that without having us nagging at them?
It's nice to see a guy, especially a young and famous one like Michael, stand up and be a voice for male fertility, and show the guys that it is okay to take responsibility for fertility. It doesn't always have to be us ladies that worry about it!
Well, even though Michael thought he was infertile despite being far from too old to have a baby, it looks like everything turned out all right after all. Michael and his beautiful wife are expecting a baby later this year, and we just found out that it's going to be a boy!
Looks like the couple decided they were ready, and everything worked out great, despite Michael's fertility concerns! We wish them all the best as they welcome their new baby Buble to the family!


"I was born in the September of 1523, nine months after the monks had discovered the child in the crib on that Christmas morning. My birth was, my father used to say, another miracle: he ws not young at the time bring 40 years of age...My mother, whose great pleasure was tending her gardens, called me Damask, after the rose which Dr. Linacre, the King's physician, had brought into England that year."
Thus begins the story narrated by Damask Farland, daughter of a well-to-do lawyer whose considerable lands adjoin those of St. Bruno's Abbey. It is a story of a life inextricably enmeshed with that of Bruno, the mysterious child found on the abbey altar that Christmas morning and raised by the monks to become a man at once handsome and saintly, but also brooding and ominouis, tortured by the secret of his origin which looms ever more menacingly over the huge abbey he comes to dominate.
This is alos the story of an engaging family, the Farlands. Of a father wise enough to understand "the happier our King is, the happier I as a true subject must be." a wife 20 years his junmior and a daughter whose intelligence is constantly to war with the strange hold Bruno has uponher destiny. What happens to the Farlands against the background of what is happening to King Henry and his court during this robust period provides a novel in which suspense and the highlights of history are wonderfully balanced.

"Easy Livin' In Helsinki" (by Tapio Minkkinen)
The idea to arrange some kind of gettogether for Finnish Heep fans came to my mind sometime in early 1997. After the band's well received tour in Finland in November 1996 I realized that there are still a lot of die-hard Heep fans here, but the band doesn't get recognized at all nowadays in media. It's no wonder that some think the band doesn't excist anymore. So I thought something had to be done to better the situation and maybe bring back some old fans that have forgotten Heep somewhere along the way.
I started putting advertisements in rock magazines for other Heepsters to contact me etc. and from the response I got I knew that this was worth trying. I began corresponding with fellow Heepsters and now there are about 30 of them with whom I keep frequent contact. Mainly I've been passing on information on band's current activities, tours & record releases, I've also informed of the various fan clubs.
The idea was to get a band to play a set of Heep songs and invite everyone there. In March 1997 I talked about my plans to Leka Rantanen, who plays drums in a band called Tunnelvision. He said he could take part in arranging the event and contacted the people at Tavastia. They also loved the idea so it was quite easy to book the club for a Uriah Heep night.
Leka would take care of putting together the band, the rehearsals and everything that had to with the gig itself and I would do all the rest. First I asked Jari-Pekka Laitio, who has his own Uriah Heep home page in the Internet, for some help. He contacted both Mick Box and Ken Hensley and ask them to send their personal greetings to Finnish Heep fans. Jari-Pekka provided us also with a lot of other useful information.
The first task for me was propably the most difficult - to select the songs to be played. With such a lot of great material to choose from, it was quite impossible to select a set that would please everyone, since all have their own favourites. It would have to be have been at least a four hour set! However, it was clear that the set would concentrate mainly on songs from the David Byron era but I wanted to include also at least one song from each other singer's period.
After I managed to get some kind of list done I presented it to the band and they started working on it. The final set list was a bit different from the original because some songs that I had suggested didn't really work out and some vocalists had their own favourites which they wanted to sing. Anssi insisted on including 'Rain' and Hepa had been singing 'The Wizard' live before.
When I went to see the rehearsals for the first time I didn't really know what to expect, but after I heard them play some songs I was convinced that this was going to be a good one. Leka had done a terrific job in choosing the musicians and vocalists.
After three months of preparation and rehearsals, lots of phone calls taken and letters written, the day finally came. There was much more work in putting the concert together than I could have imagined beforehand, but it was certainly worth all the trouble. It was great to meet other Heep fans before the concert, many of them I had already been in touch, but never met in person. The concert itself was even better than I would have thought. I had of course heard them at the rehearsals, so I knew there was something worth waiting. Though the renting a Hammond cost us half of the money we got from the gig, it was the right decision. The audience also seemed to enjoy it as much as I did. The show was great fun, but so was also the party backstage after the concert. But that's another story.
Hopefully out tribute concert helped in some way to raise awareness to the fact that Uriah Heep are still going on stronger than ever and making good quality albums, to get some new UH fans and to remind the older Heepsters of what they have been missing for the past twenty years or so. I think this could be a good way to do elsewhere also in places where Heep don't tour that often. Now we'll just have to wait for "the real thing" - the next time Heep comes here to play, but in the meantime I think this was a good substitute.
Thanks to each and everyone who were there and to all those who contributed in making the Uriah Heep Night at Tavastia happen, especially Mick Box and Ken Hensley for sending us their personal greetings.

KEN HENSLEY'S GREETINGS
Hi, this is Ken Hensley and I bring you greetings and best wishes from St. Louis Missouri, right in the middle of The United States. Right now I am very busy working on three different projects. Three new songs for a Polygram 'Best Of' my solo albums, the first Visible Faith record and helping put together the Polygram 25th anniversary Heep set. It's a busy time but I like being busy.
It has been a long time since I was in Finland but now, through the miracle of technology, here I am ... well kind of!
I want you all to know that I am grateful for all the support you have given Uriah Heep and myself over the years. I will be producing a lot of music in the next few years so I hope you will be able to stay in touch with me so we can share it! I am really easy to find, Jari has my e-mail address and now, you can even see my studio by visiting the web-site at www.upperroomstudios.net.
Finally, if you would like to receive our newsletter, you can write to me at Ken Hensley Music., 1502 S. Big Bend Boulevard, St. Louis, Missouri. 63117. USA.
Thanks again to all of you and I do look forward to hearing from you.

LETTER FROM U.H.A.S.
Dear Tapio
Many thanks for the tape of the show at Tavastia Club. I'm very impressed, you did a good job in setting everything up and it sounds like it was a great night. The main thing that stood out to me was that the vocals sounded very much like John Sloman in parts. Overall I thought it sounded good and thanks for taking the trouble to send the tape.Sorry it took me so long to reply.

JARI PEKKA LAITIO'S REPORT
The evening was great. I didn't know what to expect beforehand, but I have to say that I couldn't have so much from it. It was great to meet other Heep fans and get new friends. At first head organizer Tapio Minkkinen read the greetings from Mick Box and Ken Hensley that I had forwarded. Everyone at Tavastia was happy that Mick and Ken gave their long greetings. It was surely not easy to organize a show like this, Tapio must have had a lot to worry about. The concert place is the most famous rock club in Finland. Musicians had trained long time these songs. I'm living so far away from Helsinki that I was able to do just some things.
Crowd was quite good, some Uriah Heep fans had driven 400 kilometers to see the concert. There were no highlights, for them the whole show was just great. I had a really good time. There were about 250 - 350 people and with two big festivals held at the same time elsewhere in Finland this was very good.
The band started to play at midnight with Sweet Lorraine. It was good that there were four singers and every one of them sang the songs that suited best for their voice. It was strange for me to hear for the first time live songs like: Sweet Freedom, Free Me, Blood Red Roses & Rain. We heard songs from every Uriah Heep singers' period. There were a few surprises and specially It Ain't Easy from my absolute favourite Uriah Heep album Conquest was a great moment to me. I've asked Trevor Bolder and Mick to play Feelings or It Ain't Easy sometimes live in Finland. They haven't promised, but I'm hopeful to hear sometimes either one of them.
One special moment was to see the whole band: 5 players playing and 4 singers singing Lady In Black on stage. The band played really well, I didn't notice any big mistakes and I didn't hear that anyone was disappointed. I hope this is not going to be the last concert, I'm looking forward to the next one.

UN Mulls Plan to Defend Against Earth-Demolishing Asteroids
Molly Redden

If scientists were to discover, later this week, that an asteroid large enough to destroy the Earth will smash into the planet in a years' time, humanity would have only one course of action, says former astronaut Russell Schweickart: "Make yourself a nice cocktail and go out and watch."
That's why the United Nations is forming an "International Asteroid Warning Group," on the advice of an association of former astronauts, to share data about threatening asteroids. In a set of forthcoming recommendations, the Association of Space Explorers (ASE) will loosely outline the emergency steps that the UN's longstanding Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space must take if the asteroid warning group identifies an extinction-level space rock on a collision course with Earth. (The best option, according to ASE, would be to crash a spacecraft into the asteroid to knock it off course.)
And right now, that's a pretty big "if." According to former astronaut Ed Lu, another ASE member, we have only discovered only 1 percent of the asteroids in space that are large enough to destroy a city. Lu, Schweickart, and several other ASE members are collaborating on technology to detect the wayward space rocks that threaten humanity. A non-profit they co-founded called B612 hopes to build and launch an infrared-detecting telescope into space to scan space for asteroids by 2018—something that is technologically possible, says Lu, although it's never been done before.
ASE members decided to loop the UN in on their Armageddon-esque fears so that world leaders could coordinate an international strategy for dealing with apocalyptic asteroids. That way, any contingency plans won't be biased in the favor of one country. "If something goes wrong in the middle of the deflection, you have now caused havoc in some other nation that was not at risk," Schweickart says. "And, therefore, this decision of what to do, how to do it and what systems to use have to be coordinated internationally. That's why we took this to the United Nations." ASE members hope that in the near future, the UN can organize a test mission among members nations to practice the maneuvers that would be necessary to deflect an asteroid.
So to recap, the international checklist for avoiding world destruction reads as follows: Build a never-before-seen interplanetary space telescope, then get world leaders to collaborate on a selfless space mission to practice deflecting killer space rocks. That cocktail is sounding pretty good right about now.

Music Hall of Fame gets facelift thanks to inductee and volunteers
Posted 5:38 pm, June 15, 2017, by Carter Watkins, Updated at 02:22AM, June 16, 2017
TUSCUMBIA, Ala. – When you walk into the Alabama Music Hall of Fame, you never know what you might find.
Thursday afternoon the singing senator himself was serenading a group of ladies visiting the museum.
Not only is Bobby Denton a long-time state senator, he's a world-renowned musician and inductee.
Bobby Denton
He's also a pretty good project leader.
"I was out here, and it was fun. I like construction and working on something you are passionate about. It was good for me too," Denton said.
Denton spear-headed efforts to get the Hall of Fame's front fountain up and running. It had been dormant for years and years.
Dixie Griffin, Alabama Music Hall of Fame
"We worried about what people were thinking as they drove up; our beautiful fountain was not on and some other things were going on," explained Dixie Griffin with the Alabama Music Hall of Fame.
Their fixes included getting the planters cleaned out which were causing issues inside the building. The small outdoor stage is also ready for concerts.
These projects are now completed, allowing them to turn their attention indoors.
"We do continue to change out the showcases and add new artists and add new music," explained Griffin. "So yeah, you do have to stay on top of everything."
The majority of the repairs to the Alabama Music Hall of Fame were made possible by donations from companies and individuals.
The next order of business will be to remodel the lobby to accommodate small music events.

Africa, African Anthropology - General Resources

By peoples L through Z go to A through K
The peoples of Africa are often described in terms of their ethnic background or their languages. There are several thousand ethnic groups in Africa, ranging in physical stature from the short Pygmies to the tall Maasai, each with its own cultural traditions. Here are only a few of them.
Laka Lega Lobi Luba Luchazi Luluwa Lunda Luvale Lwalwa Maasai Makonde Mambila Mangbetu Manja Mbole Mende Mitsogo Mossi Mumuye Ngbaka Nkanu Nok Nuna Oron Owo Pende Pokot Punu San Senufo Shambaa Shona Songo Songye Suku Swahili Tabwa Tuareg Urhobo We Wimiama Wodaabe Wolof Woyo Wum Yaka Yombe Yoruba Zaramo Zulu
Please note: Some of the peoples and associations presented here are so closely related that more than one topic heading may apply. For example, The Akan people are given a page of their own, yet the Asante ( Ashanti ) are also an Akan people, as are the Akuapem. So, a full search for the 'Akan' may involve looking at pages dedicated to sub-groups as well. Some sub-group pages may contain only a link or two, but they are still part of a much larger picture.
You will find a similar relationship among some of other peoples listed here. This is a case where a little advanced knowledge of the subject may be an advantage when using these pages.

Code re-usability is one of the many benefits of object oriented programming.	For example, in Java if you need to perform email validation in different classes, rather than writing validation code in each class you can create email validation method in one class and then call that method from other classes. Now you have only one piece of code for email validation which is easy to maintain.
Often you create the "where" clause of your SQL statement dynamically based on the values of your local variables. In any project that involves database queries this code may be repeated dozens of time if not more.
In an attempt to reduce JDBC code I developed a utility class that performs these JDBC steps. Now when I need to retrieve data from database I call one of the methods in my DatabaseUtility class. I don't have to create connection or build query statments. I just call the utility class' method to get data from any table even if don't know the column names and their datatypes. All I need is the table name!
The class with javadoc in zip format is available here.
Feel free to use it in your applications.
Contact me if you want the source code or need help in using this class.
