APC's Claim Against Atiku Shows Cameroonians Voted For Buhari – Falana
Femi Falana, human rights lawyer, has faulted the argument of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Atiku Abubakar's eligibility to run for president.
He said the party's stance that Abubakar is originally from Cameroon implies those who voted in his ward, including for President Muhammadu Buhari, are Cameroonians as well.
Atiku and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are challenging Buhari's re-election at the tribunal.
In its response to one of Atiku's allegations, the APC had told the tribunal that the PDP candidate is not qualified to even participate in the presidential election because he is from former Sarduana province of Cameroon that later joined Nigeria through a referendum.
Speaking at a press freedom conference the Premium Times Centre for Investigative Journalism (PTCIJ) organised in Abuja, Falana said the ruling party had rejoiced when Buhari defeated Atiku in the same ward in question.
"If Atiku is now Cameroonian, doesn't that suggest that those who voted for President Buhari in his ward for the candidate are Cameroonian citizens too?" he asked.
The senior lawyer also decried the killings in various parts of the country, adding that they are signs of anarchy.
He said: "What the country is currently witnessing in terms of increasing violence, banditry and insurgency is a sign of anarchy. Since the 2019 elections have been concluded the duty imposed on the media is to ensure that political parties and elected officials are held accountable.
"All persons living in Nigeria including citizens by birth or naturalisation, dual citizens, foreigners, refugees and asylum seekers are entitled to adequate security and protection."

As the African market shifts towards the online space, more e-commerce businesses are springing up every day. While it is essential to have a large number of online stores, both for a healthy competition and better customer incentives, not paying attention to some important factors can hinder the growth of many players.
There's a baseline that must be met by new e-commerce businesses in Nigeria or anywhere in the world. Launching without paying attention to these conditions wouldn't just be both fool-hardy and reckless for any entrepreneur that makes the plunge, but could put the founder out of business as soon as possible.
Imagine visiting Dubai's most expensive hotel (Burj Al Arab) at it's inception to book a room, only to discover that there's little to no furniture, bedding, and many other facilities.
What would you do? I bet there's a 99.9% chance you'd immediately leave to find another better furnished hotel.
This is the problem many new e-commerce businesses in Africa have. they launch with little to no product items listed on their websites. If your online store is going to sell only a very few selected items, then the website should be well designed to look like it only sells those few items.
Imagine a brand like Chanel building a website that looks like Amazon's. It's a total no-brainer, knowing they release only a few collections per quarter.
First impressions are everything. When you launch an empty or low-stocked online store and start using various marketing strategies to get visitors to your website, upon arrival, they'd skim through, leave, and probably never return.
Without the right resources in the basic volume for the right types of customers, you'd be throwing your efforts to the wind.
This is probably the biggest mistake many new e-commerce businesses make. Because they see the largest players spending hundreds, and sometimes thousands of dollars everyday on both online and offline ads, they take the little startup capital they have, and begin to flush it down the advert drain.
Your startup capital is probably low or moderate, so spending most of it blindly on ads will get you "truly" cashless in little to no time.
Okay, you argue you're not spending it blindly. But you'd still need to understand which consumers react to what type of ads, and how. Experimenting like this on a low budget could cost you over half of your startup capital, if not everything.
It kills your creativity and problem-solving potential. When you're only motivated to solve problems with money in any new company, you'd either take forever to turn cashflow positive, or you could pack up within 3 years or as soon as you opened shop.
It shows potential investors how recklessly you could tend to squander their whole investments.
Before you start throwing in a lot of money on ads, first ensure you've acquired all the right items for sale on your website, done your best to make the shopping experience feel and look seamless, built the right team to run the startup, and are darn sure your online store's unique value already has an edge over the nearest competitor.
Remember: Don't enter a market just for the sake of owning a business. If you must, you should either be disrupting the market or driving the prices down. Any other motive is a waste of time.
Many new e-commerce businesses don't know their average daily page views, daily unique visitors, what pages get visited the most, what items get purchased or returned the most, what items get ignored or inquired about the most, what their real daily running expense costs are, their customer acquisition cost, what customers have to say about their service, and a lot more.
Data is very crucial to the growth and survival of any business. Operating without data is like walking blindly. You don't really know where you're headed, so what you've got are your instincts and feelings. The sad truth about basing decisions on hope or feelings is that hope is not a strategy, and mostly only leads to endless disappointments. You strategise so you may control what comes next, and that's the best course of action for any new business or executive.
Without the right data, your business could come to a standstill and eventually crash out.
Keep records and gather feedback by using tools like QuickBooks, Google Analytics, Survey Planet, and a host of others. Then a good understanding of your data will lead you in the right direction.
What are your thoughts on these biggest mistakes new e-commerce businesses make? Let me know by leaving a comment below.


Al and Missy Terry were called by God to go into the mission field and after several years of prayer and leading by the Holy Spirit, through faith, God began to form Hakima and gave clarity to the vision for His assignment.
In 2013, the Terry's gave away most everything, left behind three children, their church, friends and family, quit jobs and stepped out with Jesus. They took their twin 15 year old daughters, packed their entire life into two suitcases each and landed in Nakuru, Kenya.
The Soysambu Conservancy in Nakuru, Kenya is now our home and base of operations for the ministries in East Africa.
Hakima is an Arabic word meaning wisdom; but it is more than just a word; it is a phrase which is translated as "the journey of a pure heart." God has given us a vision that is much bigger than us. Proverbs 25:2 says, "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings." We are very excited about what God is doing, and what He is about to do here in Kenya.
God gave us a vision of a hub and spoke. God showed us that we are like the hub, and there are other ministries that will be spokes. All of our local ministries are rooted in our local church. Doing life with other like-minded ministries across the world is a reflection of our Father's heart.
We are ordained pastors in Kenya under Africa Gospel Church which has over 1,800 churches in three countries. The church we pastor is the Soysambu Africa Gospel Church. Our work permits are under World Gospel Missions. In the United States, we are ordained as pastors under Destiny Worship Center in Destin, Florida.
Our ministry was founded in 2013. Hakima is a registered 501.C.3 in the United States.
The sole basis for our beliefs is the Bible, which is uniquely God-inspired, without error, and the final authority on all matters on which it speaks. As the Bible teaches, there is one God, eternally existing in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – each possessing all the attributes of deity.
Jesus Christ, the second Person of the Trinity, lived a sinless life on earth and voluntarily paid for our sin by dying on the cross as our substitute. This accomplished salvation for all who receive grace by trusting in Him alone. He rose from the dead and is the only mediator between God and us. He baptizes believers in the Holy Spirit. He will return to earth to consummate history.
The Holy Spirit draws people to Christ and indwells the believer to live an overcoming and victorious Christian life. We believe in and depend on the power of the Holy Spirit to meet our needs, in every arena of life. We believe in the present day gifts of the Holy Spirit that empower Christians to live the life God intends for them.
God has called every believer in Matthew 28:19-20 to make disciples. Hence, one of our primary focuses at Destiny Worship Center is to help people build their lives, both spiritually and relationally.
John 3:16 clearly tells us that God loves people sacrificially. God's heart is to reach those who don't know Him. We are passionate about doing the same.

An old HVAC system will need replacement any time soon since it may develop problems. For a HVAC system that is not very old, this one requires that you perform regular maintenance routines at least once a year. A HVAC system company should, therefore, be identified to cater for that crucial time. Before you get an emergency with the HVAC system, you should have gotten a reputable contractor. You should get and hire a reliable contractor now before you start scrambling to find one when your system unit or furnace is broken down. Take time and get a contractor who will be there for you when that time comes for emergency repair or routine checkup. Due to the increasing number of HVAC system contractors, it can be a daunting task to select one. To help you in your search, the following are things to look for when searching for a HVAC system contractor.
It is essential to hire a HVAC System Contractor that specializes in heating and cooling services only. Do not hire a company that is not specialized. When a company has so many different services being offered, it lacks expertise and professionalism. A company which deals with one particular specialty develops familiarity and professionalism towards that niche. Therefore, before hiring a company, check if they are specialized. By so doing, you will get the best HVAC services in the market.
When it comes to refrigerant and air balancing, the contractor you hire should be experienced in that. For the system to work effectively, the contractors should be qualified and experienced. Hence, when interviewing the contractors, ask for this documentation as proof of having the qualifications.
Before the installation of the HVAC system, the contractors should examine your home. The inspection is useful in determining the right solution for your house. The duct system will also be evaluated to check for leaks, loose segments, among others. After inspection, the contractor should now give an estimate. This estimate is crucial for comparison purposes regarding warranties, costs and energy efficiency among other proposals.
It is worthwhile to confirm the quality of materials and equipment to be used by the contractors. You should ensure no substandard materials or equipment is used on the system. They should also be a brand that is easily available in the market. A top but common brand ensures that during repairs you can always access its spare parts. Although they are a bit expensive than the cheap brands, you will not spend extra cash on the HVAC system any time soon. The system will serve you for long without breaking down.
Most people usually have more confidence in going to surgical centers rather than general hospitals due to various reasons, and the best thing is that surgical hospitals usually are quite affordable and so many people can easily afford your service without going broke. Note that a surgical center is also a hospital and it does offer various medical treatments apart from handling procedures only. The surgical centers can be able to offer any treatment that a patient needs and they are also qualified to offer both outpatient and inpatient surgical procedures. You should never settle for a particular hospital before checking various things that will guide you into knowing if the hospital is worth seeking treatment in so that you don't end up choosing a hospital whose service will be a letdown and they can't be able to provide you with the type of treatment that you need.
The first thing that you need to check before you settle for a particular surgical Hospital is the reputation that the hospital has in your local area. The information that you get should be the one that will guide you into knowing if the hospital will give you the care that you need, if many people are saying positive things about the company then know that they won't be a letdown. That is why people are usually encouraged to not be in a rush when settling for a particular hospital so that the one that they will choose they can be certain that the hospital will be there to cater for all your medical needs.
Another thing that you need to focus on is how clean the hospital is. It is usually quite unfortunate because there have been cases that have been reported of patients getting infections while they are in hospital and is mainly caused by ignorance when it comes to cleanliness.
Always know that a hospital is usually a place that you can get infections quite easily if you are not careful and that is why we need to ensure that you choose a hospital that does not play when it comes to ensuring that their equipment are disinfected and their surroundings are cleaner at all times.

Pakistani sues U.S. over drone aircraft strike
By Michael Georgy
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - A Pakistani man whose brother and son were killed by what he said was a U.S. drone strike is on an ambitious courtroom quest to get $500 million in compensation and end attacks Washington launches against top militants.
Pakistani tribesman Kareem Khan, 43, poses with images of his deceased brother Asif Iqbal (L) and son Zaenullah during an interview in Islamabad November 30, 2010. REUTERS/Mian Khursheed
Kareem Khan said a CIA-operated drone fired missiles at his house in Pakistan's North Waziristan on the night of Dec 31 2009, killing his son Zaenullah, 18, and brother Asif Iqbal.
In a legal notice to U.S. officials including Defense Secretary Robert Gates and CIA Director Leon Panetta, his lawyer is demanding $500 million in compensation.
"We say to them that these drone attacks you are carrying out are killing innocent people," Khan told Reuters, describing the message he wanted to convey to the Americans.
A U.S. embassy spokesman said no communication had been received over the case.
Pakistan's government routinely protests against the strikes, but analysts say they could not occur without Pakistani help.
Khan's attorney, Shahzad Akbar, also plans to file a constitutional petition in a bid to force a showdown.
"If the government is really pushed, we expect it to say it is happening with their knowledge, but not their consent, that they can't do anything against the United States."
Akbar hopes the Supreme Court will then rule the drone attacks illegal and put the United States under moral and legal pressure to end them.
"The main aim is to stop drone attacks and two, get compensation for the victims of drone attacks," he said.
Both are unlikely. While not acknowledging the suspected CIA programme, drone strikes have killed senior al Qaeda and Taliban figures along the Afghan border, a global hub for militants.
Retired High Court justice Tariq Mehmood dismissed the case as a media stunt.
"You need to build public opinion against these strikes, stage demonstrations, hold seminars. Such suits will not work."
Pakistan worries the attacks undermine efforts to deal with militancy because civilian casualties inflame public anger and bolster support for the militants.
Khan, who lives in Islamabad, rushed to his village of Machikhel to find the mutilated bodies of relatives after the strike, which he said had killed another Pakistani man as well.
Several media outlets, including Reuters, reported the trike against Khan's compound in North Waziristan where security officials were quoted as saying militants were hiding.
"I wanted to get revenge, but there was no one to attack. So I decided to sue," said Khan, 43.
Drones are vital because they allow the United States to kill militants from a distance. Using human informants is risky; Taliban militants often behead suspected spies for the United States.
Khan said he would do the same.
"I will will never let them live," said Khan, who sports a thick black beard.
Pakistani Taliban militants are seeking to topple the government and have ambitions to strike in the West.
"I am a Muslim and they are Muslims so they are all my Muslim brothers. They are fighting for the cause of Islam and also for the defence of their own territory and country," said Khan.
Critics say the drone strikes are short-sighted and only economic development can tackle militancy by erasing conditions that create jihadis, such as poverty and unemployment.
"They pick up sticks and they point them towards the sky and make believe they are shooting drones down," said Khan, describing how children in his village react when drones hover overhead.

I think ipconfig might be an option, but I need a way to sort out the DHCP field as well as make sure the field I am pulling is from the correct adapter.
I found this code which will pull out the IP Address, But I have not be able to adjust the code to pull the DHCP status.
for /f "delims=" %a in ('ipconfig ^| findstr [0-9].\.') do @echo %a | findstr "Address"

I tried
for /f "delims=" %a in ('ipconfig ^| findstr [0-9].\.') do @echo %a | findstr "DHCP Enabled"

and
for /f "delims=" %a in ('ipconfig ^| findstr [0-9].\.') do @echo %a | findstr "DHCP"

but they return nothing. I think im on the right track, I'm just not sure.

A: for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %a in ('ipconfig /all ^|find "DHCP Enabled"') do echo DHCP:%a

Scott Disick is 'still turned on' by Kourtney Kardashian
ICONINSIDER — Scott Disick still gets "turned on" by Kourtney Kardashian.
The 33-year-old TV personality split from the mother of his three children – Mason, seven, Penelope, four, and their two-year-old son Reign – in 2015, but Scott has admitted he's still attracted to the curvaceous star.
Scott's confession came during a conversation between himself and Kourtney's sister Khloe Kardashian, in which she grills Scott about whether he and Kourtney kissed during a family vacation in Mexico last year.
In a clip from an upcoming episode of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians', Scott jokingly reveals Kourtney "didn't kiss me back when we were together".
But Khloe continues to probe, asking: "Did your sausage like move in your pants a little because it got excited?"
And Scott responds, candidly: "I'm still turned on by her, if that's what you're asking."
The reality TV star subsequently admits he still loves Kourtney, even if there is no immediate prospect of them reuniting their on/off romance.
He said: "I feel like I will never be over her. She's the love of my life, but I just try to do everything to be there for her, but there's literally no appreciation for anything ever."
Scott's party-loving lifestyle led to the collapse of his relationship with Kourtney and while he acknowledges he was largely to blame for their break-up, he is eager to see his family reunited.
He explained: "I definitely realise that a lot of things truly are my fault and I'm happy taking ownership for all that."
And Scott believes Kourtney still doesn't understand quite how much she means to him.
The TV star – who has previously admitted to drinking and partying excessively – said: "I just hope that one day she understands that I would never want to be with anybody but her."

When you hear somebody say something that you know is wrong, you want to tell them. Here are ten polite and less polite ways of telling them they're wrong.
I'm afarid that's not quite right.
Rubbish! / You're talking rubbish.
You follow phrase 4 with a noun phrase or a gerund.
Phrases 6 and 7 are very strong. You may upset the person you are talking to so you should be really sure about your own facts before you say one of these.
Phrases 8 and 9 are actually quite rude. Even people who know each other quite well may not say these phrases to each other.


The debt is high. I am sure that this will increase the taxes. Maybe they should try to hire inteligent people like http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/c...">John Studzinski as advisers in order to help them reduce the debt.


Summer has ended and the weather has started to cool off. You know what the means? It's time for Oktoberfest. But which fest should you go to? I have three that have peaked my interest for this weekend.
See the complete beer list for the weekend here.
Starr Hill and Beer Run present the 3rd Annual Top of the Hops Beer Festival in Charlottesville, VA Saturday September 22nd. $40 ($45 at the gate) gets you unlimited sampling of over 150 craft beers from breweries such as Devils Backbone, Hardywood, Ommegang, Goose Island to name a few. Tak a look at the breweries and their beers here. Go here to buy tickets.
Mad Fox Brewing in Falls Church has taken a different spin on Oktoberfest by celebrating hops Sunday September 23rd starting at 11am in their Biergarten. If you need one beer to make the trek up, Mad Fox's Orange Whip IPA is that beer. They will also have their own Oktoberfest beer on tap and cask; I had the pleasure of having the cask version last night at Station 2. You can see all of the beers they will have here.


Jan discovered pesto for sale for the first time in the grocery store a few weeks ago. He has since been eagerly using the ingredient here, there and everywhere.
His salads with pesto have been pretty good, but I never imagined that the ingredient can be added in tuna spread too.
2. Drain tuna and mix with mayonnaise, onions, basil, pesto and pepper. Chill.
3. Put lettuce over a piece of bread and top with the tuna pesto spread. Cover with another slice of bread. Enjoy.
Wife's Verdict: Another strangely comforting creation.
Yes, we've established that Jan.

Q: Bezier curve gradient in html5/css3 Doesn't look like its possible to do a non-linear (e.g. Bezier-curve fill) css3 gradient; anyone know if it's possible in html5 canvas?

A: I think the initial comment is really about the rate of progression from one color to another within the gradient, not the physical shape of the gradient.
To address the former: no, unfortunately at this time there is no way to do non-linear CSS gradient fills. However, you can use successive color stops to achieve some level of control over the shape of your gradient.
You could mess with the little squares under the gradient in the Colorzilla gradient generator or read the MDN linear-gradient article for detailed info on creating your own color stops.
The color stops can be used pretty creatively, especially combined with background-size. Here is a great collection of CSS patterns built using gradients.
CSS preprocessors can also be used to generate gradients that feel non-linear (although they simply generate lots of stops without you having to think about each one). A recent CSS Tricks article about easing linear gradients demonstrates one such approach.

Q: Index/Match multiple results in multiple sheets As the title suggests I'm looking to do an Index/Match in multiples sheets but to also return multiple results.
I know how to return multiple results with
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!B$1:B$100,SMALL(IF(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$100=myValue,ROW(Sheet!$A$1:$A$100)),ROWS(1:1))),"")
and then copy it down.
I also know how to look through multiple sheets for a unique value
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!B$1:B$100,MATCH(myValue,Sheet1!$A$1:$A$100,0)),INDEX(Sheet2!B$1:B$100,MATCH(myValue,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$100,0)))
I was wondering if there was a way to do this with multiple values in multiple sheets ? Combining the two formulas in some way ?
My problem is that because I do not know when the switch between the two sheets will be made in the search, I cannot offset it by the correct number of rows in the first formula.
Thanks to all of you !

A: Thanks Jeeped, it was exactly that ! Just needed to count the matched in the other sheets to reset the rows.
The final formula looks like this
=IFERROR(IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet1!B$1:B$100,SMALL(IF(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$100=myValue,ROW(Sheet!$A$1:$A$100)),ROWS(1:1))),INDEX(Sheet2!B$1:B$100,SMALL(IF(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$100=myValue,ROW(Sheet!$A$1:$A$100)),ROWS(1:1)-COUNTIF(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$100,myValue))),"")

The Divine Comedy – De La Warr Pavilion – 25th October 2016
I was pretty excited to be going to see The Divine Comedy for the first time. I was really impressed with the new album Foreverland which I recently reviewed for Brightonsfinest and I'd never before seen a show in the iconic 30s theatre at the De La Warr Pavilion, in Bexhill. I wasn't quite prepared for how blown away I was going to be by the show. I have to say Neil Hannon really is an under-appreciated genius, I'm quite baffled that he's not considered as much of a national treasure as someone like Pulp frontman, Jarvis Cocker, who seems a reasonable equivalent, having also risen into public consciousness in Britain during the mid-to-late 90s. Perhaps it's because Neil is from that lesser regarded corner of the UK: Northern Ireland; or perhaps it's because there's some peculiar invisible thin-line between the music we treat as serious, or meaningful, and that which we dismiss as simply comedic.
Laish – Pendulum Swing
Back in 2008, whilst also playing with Sons of Noel and Adrian, Danny Green formed Laish as a vehicle for his own song-writing. Becoming part of the much-feted Willkommen Collective, at the centre of Brighton's alternative scene, Laish had released a couple of self-produced albums recorded in Green's Brighton home, gaining him some great support from BBC Radio. This led to an impressive burgeoning independent career, playing shows both with Laish and solo, out in Europe and as far afield as India and Israel. But, from the sounds of things, by 2014 Green had begun to feel himself slipping into something of a creative malaise. I've heard many people speak of similar problems when living in a town that, whilst being full of artistic types, sometimes gets called the 'graveyard of ambition' by its own residents. For, while Brighton is indeed a creative hub it is also, unmistakeably, a party town, and one that Green found himself slipping into; "I could feel myself becoming fossilised in Brighton, hardening into the grooves of my drinking and laziness so before I became fully set in amber, I dragged myself away and moved to London."
Fujiya & Miyagi – EP1 & EP2
Fujiya & Miyagi are a bit of a cult Brighton success, having formed here around university friends at the very beginning of the 00s. They rose to prominence from around 2003 onward as releases started getting positive coverage in the music press and their songs started getting picked up for advertising and synchronised to TV shows. 'Collarbone' appeared in a couple of adverts and now, a decade on, it has over four million streams on Spotify. It's a method of exposure that has become more and more common in a shifting music industry – where once selling-out to advertisers was seen as a cred-killer it's now a legitimate, quite common way for independent bands to establish themselves at the same time as pocketing some much needed seed money. I remember seeing them live in the now defunct Pressure Point (in fact it may still have been called The Richmond at this point) when I was at college, thinking they were extremely cool with their cover of Talking Heads 'Psycho Killer' performed in their signature style: heavily kraut-influenced electro, with David Best's whispered vocals – the sound of being let in on a well-kept secret.
Their return in 2016, a couple of years on from the Artificial Sweeteners album, which saw one of AK/DK's dual drummers Ed Chivers join the ranks, seems perfectly suited to their aesthetics. They've decided to spread the releasing and production of an album's worth of material across a year-and-a-half via three EPs, released in modular vinyl packaging. Once all three are available, the sleeves will join together, like a set of transformer toys from the 80s, into one triple disc set. It seems to me the perfect format for a band who channel the sound of the late 70s/early 80s electronic music, which tried its best to sound like a vision of the future. So there's the sound of tomorrow as imagined yesterday: reconditioned analogue synths beefed up with modern digital recording techniques. There's always been a hint of the absurd about their work – dressing quite unusual, often mundane, subject matter in ice-cool synths, kraut beats and precise guitar lines.
EP2 just came out and it contains some really strong material. 'Outstripping (The Speed Of Light)' is a great song, and obvious single, but in a sense it's too obvious – singing about the speed of light, days bleeding into night – it's all a bit too genuinely cool, although this is somewhat rescued by the effortlessness of the piece. metronomic drums, bass and guitars with floating synth pads and wailing heavily effected guitar notes in the choruses. 'R.S.I.' is more like it, in my opinion. While the dark moody-synths wouldn't sound out of place on a Ninja Tune-influenced electronic Radiohead track and the wob-wob-wob auto-bass wouldn't sound out of place on a Georgio Moroder cut, those vocals are unmistakably Fujiya & Miyagi – who else would treat the subject of repetitive strain injury with such reverence? Musically, when the track kicks back in towards the end for another couple of minutes at double the heaviness, it's sublime.
'Swoon' is a vibey, spaced-out piece with a lyric that's a little more nonesensical; "Does your whole body swoon / to uninterupted views / of electric blue / drained swimming pools", seemingly putting an emphasis on the sound and texture of the words. 'Extended Dance Mix' is probably my favourite piece of the whole collection so far, again it's seeped in Moroder, but it's the spoken-word lyric and resigned delivery that really nail this one to the wall. The discussion is about Fujiya & Miyagi's story up to now, comparing the last ten years of their music career to the twitching of a dead frogs leg, when you apply electric current to it. He talks about the band's faltered career trajectory, "too electronic to be rock and too rock to be electronic it's weird/ if you drew a Venn diagram you'd find an overlap between those too spheres". The confessional approach, openly discussing the worry that as one gets older you become less physically capable and, in terms of the band, potentially further and further from relevance, is really quite refreshing. And what's surprising – and I know I'm overusing this – is how cool it all sounds! Never has the anxiety of a burgeoning midlife crisis been so danceable, except, perhaps, Phil Daniels verses on Blur's 'Parklife', although that was a cooked up fantasy and this is self-analysis.
EP1 was released back in May, when we had our heads firmly wrapped in Great Escape territory. It begins with 'Serotonin Rushes', which sounds like there's a hint of Lipps Inc's 'Funky Town' embedded in the mix, although that may just give you a sense of the sound of the record. "You take the minuses and leave me with the pluses/ my sweet serotonin rushes", whispers Best, perhaps an ode to the chemical highs that have kept people up and dancing in dingy clubs for many years. There's a fantastic instrumental passage in this one, with some wild sounding guitar – or synth, it's actually quite hard to tell the difference! 'To The Last Beat Of My Heart' is more of a mellow, moody number, it's got some pretty saccharine lyrics about loving someone endlessly, but delivered in such a way, with this sombre backing track, it sounds almost sinister: like a threat.
'Freudian Slips' steps things up again, about Best's assertion that psychoanalysis does more damage than it fixes: "you got to get over it", he sings, which seems fair enough until he starts developing this to the point of absurdity again: get over it, or under it, or through it, or move it! It's hard to tell at times, throughout the two EPs, if you're listening to a band that wants to be taken seriously or would like you to laugh, but that's not a problem for me. I find myself as likely to be reminded of Neu or Can as I am of Flight of the Conchords – but I come away thinking Fujiya & Miyagi would like you to dance primarily, besides which I suspect they'd hate to have to take anything too seriously. In a world where the electronic music scene is increasingly po-faced it's a welcome relief to find Fujiya & Miyagi are still producing music of such high quality. Still maybe it's just that my interests intersect perfectly with the overlap between the rock and electronic spheres of their imaginary Venn diagram! I'll be looking forward to spring next year for chapter three in this modular record release: the future is here and it's yesterday.

Pretenders – Alone
When I first heard the heavy-riffing, 60s-girl-group-checking, and yet ultra-modern sounding 'Holy Commotion', the teaser single for the new Pretenders album, my head filled with questions. Most principally: where has Chrissie Hynde been? How does she still sound this good? And who are these new Pretenders? Pretenders' latest return was announced in early September, most of the world hearing about it through Stevie Knicks, as she announced the band would be supporting her during the last three months of the year on her mega world arena tour.
It has been eight years since the last Pretenders album, Break Up The Concrete. Released 30 years after the band were formed in 1978, you could be forgiven for thinking it would be their last album, and, in fact, it flew under my radar completely. I certainly wouldn't have expected them to return now with a record that sounds so fresh and, at times, exciting. But then I'd probably be falling into a trap many before me have succumb to: underestimating Chrissie Hynde. She has one of the most enduring, most instantly recognisable voices in rock history and writes razor sharp lyrics to boot.
Opening and title track 'Alone' is a case in point. Chrissie's tone is conversational, and yet cool as fuck throughout, as she sing-speaks about going to a graveyard to be on her own, smoke and practise her autograph. She seems to somehow be sending herself up with this irreverent wit, whilst simultaneously being a perfect representation of who we expect her to be. All the greatest rock stars are, at least at some point in their careers, caricatures, and Chrissie Hynde is one who has endured, everything you expect her to be remains intact and vibrant. It's so easy to forget she's 65 years old. 'Alone' is driven along by gritty guitars and a boogie woogie piano groove in the verses that makes it sound like Warren Zevon is about to howl, "Awooo" and this is actually going to be 'Werewolves Of London'. Hynde casually closes the song in style.
"I like being on my own
What are you gonna do about it, huh?
Absolutely fuck all".
Another principle factor in this reformation has to be producer and Black Keys man Dan Aeurbach, who actually shares a hometown with Hynde in Akron, Ohio; although you'd be forgiven for thinking Chrissie came out of New York City by way of London. The question of 'who' the Pretender are now is answered in the official press release for the album in an enigmatically reassuring style, in stating that Chrissie is backed on the album by "real people playing real instruments". That's the sound we hear throughout the record, some great players stomping their way back and forth through the great American songbook in a way that sounds simultaneously up-to-date and like some great forgotten moment between the 60s and 70s. 'Roadie Man', for example, sounds like it could be The Band with some extra layers of guitar. Apparently this is a song Chrissie had played to Elvis Costello years ago, which he'd pushed for inclusion on the album. As resistant to hyperbole as ever Chrissie recently denied this on the BBC One Show, saying she'd have to tell Elvis she'd finally recorded It. On the same show she also sweeps away any queries about who the Pretenders are, it's just a name. As the only consistent member of the band it's ultimately the sound and attitude of a record that decides if that collection of songs is going to be a Pretenders album, and this is most certainly a Pretenders album.
Chrissie Hynde's song-writing sounds at the top of its game to me, backed by a great set of session players that Aeurbach has at his disposal, it's live and lively throughout. Although, while Alone begins with all guns blazing, it gently dips its way towards the reflective and melancholic as it progresses through the track-list exploring the theme of the title. The proud defiance of 'Alone' gives way to waiting for love ('Gotta Wait', 'One More Day'), and tracks that accept it's not going to work out ('Never Be Together', 'The Man You Are'). But Hynde never loses her confidence or independence, even when you hit the lows of a track like 'I Hate Myself', she uses confessional cowboy-blues to list her mistakes and regrets without ever surrendering her defiance. The album closes with 'Death Is Not Enough' a solemn ballad, drenched in mournful pedal steel and dripping in romance – love enduring after a death that, presumably, leaves Hynde alone. But Hynde staunchly avoids drifting into cliché, even with the rock-history lesson on display throughout the album; she manages to keep things interesting and clever with unique passages popping up amongst the comforting familiarity of the overall sound.
It's interesting that they've chosen to stick 'Holy Commotion' on the end of the album, listed as a 'bonus track' (there's a near thirty seconds of silence at the end of 'Death Is Not Enough' to enforce the seperation). With its arpeggio synth, big production percussion, and hooky backing vocals it's arguably the most modern sounding track on the album, definitely souped up for maximum impact, but in so doing it sticks out like a sore thumb (tellingly the version they played on Jools Holland the other day was far faster and more rock oriented than the recording). Thematically as well it strays a little from the album – it's about love and connection in spite, or in antidote to the "rape, torture and mutilation" of the modern world. It's optimistic, it's hopeful and it's an earworm par-excellence with the potential to become one of Hynde's most memorable singles, right up there with her '94 hit, 'I'll Stand By You'. To set it aside, rather than attempt to build the album around it, says a lot to me. For all this surprise blooming of energy, so late in her career, Hynde is still of her-era: preferring authenticity and a bold artistic statement to a dogged pursuit of commercial success. That's not to say this album is anti-commercial by any means. In fact we've seen time and time again that those who avoid the big tell-all PR campaigns and enormous lead-times of typical pop promotions can end up getting even more love from the public, for reminding us that we like a little mystery in our lives. This album is a real grower, classic and clever, in defiance of her age it feels like it could well be the beginning of a new era of Pretenders – I, for one, certainly hope so!

Kings of Leon – WALLS
WALLS is the seventh studio album by Kings of Leon and they've decided to try and step outside of their comfort zones this time. For the first time since 2003's What I Saw EP, the band have parted ways with producer Angelo Petraglia in favour of Markus Dravs, who is best known for his work with Coldplay, Florence & The Machine and Arcade Fire. It's been thirteen years since their first release and perhaps that's unlucky for some. The band certainly seem pretty determined to shake things up and make this album have some impact, or at least more impact than their last. The popular narrative is that their last two albums, Mechanical Bull and Come Around Sundown, did not achieve the critical acclaim or commercial peak that they soared to with their fourth album Only By The Night. It's true there isn't a story of uninterrupted global success and super-stardom continuing the unprecedented trajectory of their first four albums, but this is probably as much to do with personal issues as the strength of the follow-up releases. While extensively touring 2010's Come Around Sundown lead-singer Caleb Followill lost it, appearing on stage intoxicated he abandoned a concert in Texas abruptly. Later that year the band were forced to go on hiatus, presumably while Caleb went through some sort of rehab programme. His brother, drummer Nathan Followill, was pretty confident in correctly predicting the hiatus would last no more than six months, showing that old family discipline has remained intact no matter how far the Followill brothers and cousin stray from their roots.
Bloom – Interview – 2016
Bloom are effectively a new version of an old Brighton band called The Beautiful Word. They decided to retire the old name a couple of years ago in order to reflect a major change in their sound and approach. This has all recently come to fruition as the revitalised group have just self-released their début album What Is Life? supported by a successful Kickstarter campaign and launched with a sold-out show at The Latest Music Bar. With a little bit of respite before they head off on a UK tour now seemed a great time to pose a few questions to front-women Emily and Megan to find out why they decided to change things up, what's new and what's next.
Bloom – Latest Music Bar – 7th October 2016
I had been hearing great things about Fukushima Dolphin, so I made sure I was early to the Bloom launch to catch their set, and I was not disappointed. I'd seen a few low-quality YouTube videos of the band playing live, but the up-front personal experience has to be experienced. Frontman Josh Butler cuts quite an enigmatic figure, wearing hillbilly dungarees and a straw hat that covers most of his face. He plays an acoustic guitar through a wide variety of effects pedals that cook up quite a racket, and it's this, alongside his gravelly vocal, that forms the centre-piece of the band's sound. They are quite a rag-tag mob, you wouldn't necessarily guess all six of them belong to the same band when you see them scattered around the venue before the show kicks off, but they certainly make a mighty sound when they get started. It's melodic, well-orchestrated psychedelic rock and they're ones to watch.
Bloom – What Is Life?
Bloom have an interesting origin of sorts. Although this is their début album they're not exactly a new band. Rather like New Order became Joy Division, Bloom are the Phoenix that has risen from the flames of an old Brighton group called The Beautiful Word, who had been kicking around making folky pop on these shores for quite some time. Thankfully the tragedy that prompted this reboot is not quite so solemn as the suicide of Ian Curtis which made the remaining members of Joy Division decide to start over with a new identity. Still, I can imagine it must have been quite horrifying for Megan, one of the bands dual harmony singers, when she developed nodules on her throat and had to stop singing altogether for a while. So it was an enforced break from music that forced the band to take pause and incubate this new version of themselves. What's apparent from the get-go on this collection of ten songs is the level of focus and clarity to the bands renewed musical vision.
I had seen their previous incarnation live a number of times on the local gig circuit. Although there were lots of aspects to the sound that I could get behind I always felt like there was a slight mismatch between the two singing girls up front, best friends Emily and Megan, with their folky art-pop sensibilities, and the trio of guys at the back, who would bring a level of technical skill that at times felt unnecessary for the material. Those sorts of complaints are completely absent from What Is Life?, which comes across as the work of a sophisticated, cohesive band with a clearly defined sound. They've shed a lot of the folky finger-picking stuff in favour of a more slick synth pop flavour. There were times I might have found their earlier work a little too soppy and saccharine, but while the melodies are as sunny and the harmonies as frequent, there is a melancholy that hangs over these songs. There's a sense of longing, reaching, hoping and emerging.
The album begins with 'Such A Shame' establishing the sound of the record, a solid, funky, super-tight groove held down by the rhythm section while clean, jangly delayed guitars and shiny synths sparkle on top. The tension of the verses gives way to a killer, hooky chorus. It's an approach the band use throughout the album – managing to find catchy melodies to crown their tracks time and time again. 'Shout' was the first song to be made public as a teaser for the album, it could almost be referring directly to Megan's struggle with losing her voice, or rather the joy of rediscovering it: "never knew that I could shout before always bite my tongue/now I know what all the fuss is for, show me how it's done". There's a feeling of triumph over adversity, but it's marked by the struggle to get there, as the intimate stripped back verses give way to driving choruses by way of a distorted synth bass tone.
'Not Enough' has a classy broken groove to the verses, with clever guitar harmonies and a housey groove. 'Try' takes things down a notch, leading with a picked guitar and off-beat ambience before striking up a slow-burning groove that builds with counter-point vocal melodies and laid-back guitars. 'Nothing' is a real strong track, the synth-organ playing hooks that wouldn't have sounded out of place on a Vampire Weekend album. The verse melody has real ear-worm potential, almost more so than the chorus, and it gets plenty of room to shine. Particularly in the extended break-down for the second verse, one of many places where the bands skill for vocal arrangement shines through, giving this one a bit of School Of Seven Bells feel.
Probably the oddest groove on the record comes with 'Snow', which sounds like Japanese computer game music in places, its verses doing odd things with all the black notes on the keyboard. The chorus is a build-up that returns us to the unusual verse groove, which stretches and adds more tension when it repeats. 'Something' is another hook-fest, vocal melodies and infectious synth licks are all over the shop – perhaps it's a sister track to 'Nothing'. This one could easily be a single, possessing a sort of epic-pop chorus that rises pleasingly out of the soft pop verses. They take this one for bit of a ride too, taking the opportunity to play it out with a largely instrumental outro, marked by the occasional vocal line, drenched in faraway reverb.
'Tiny' is a bit of a ballad, and a rare occasion where the lead vocal is largely left to a single voice – appropriate when the lyrics is about feeling small and forgotten. This is probably the closest they get on the album to a folk number, melodically and with the prominence of the acoustic guitar. It builds beautifully though, with a stand-out bit of vocal performance in the bridge, and some bass guitar that sounds like it could be influenced by the amazing playing on Paul Simon's Graceland. There's something about the crescendo that's a bit Ben Folds 5 too, but only in as much as it's a well crafted bit of song-writing.
As the album draws to a close we get 'Focus', which has a fantastic verse full of slightly unusual chord choices and fancy backing vocal hooks. It's another chorus that works as a building section, which is quite a good technique that works very well for them, building tension before releasing it all in the instrumental sections that follow. The album ends on it's most epic track, 'Letting Go' is mellow and melancholic, stretching out to 5 minutes it's unusually long on an album that breezes by with a 36 minute total running time. The funky chorus on this one is a real treat, and there's a synth hook that's a nod to some early retro synth pioneer that I shamefully can't pinpoint, but it's a really clever use of a classic motif, not that they needed it to make this track a real gem and a great opportunity for their able drummer to stretch his limbs, rolling effortlessly around the kit throughout the track, without sounding like he's over egging the pudding.
The band talk about their work taking a DIY approach with this album, raising the funds to produce it through kick-starter, working on near zero budget music videos, calling in favours from an extended family of old contacts established in The Beautiful Word days to organise a UK tour on a shoe-string. In that context you might expect the music to be a little rough-and-ready, a little bit of charming shonkiness would not be a surprise, but that's not what we get. Instead everything has been painstakingly arranged and performed, the production kept to a high standard throughout. So What Is Life? is a fine collection of songs from a group who have re-emerged stronger with a clearer sense of self. Here's hoping they get the accolades they deserve for all this hard work, there's so much potential on this record I'd love to see their own brand of cosmic pop ascending to the stratosphere where it belongs.

Fable – The Prince Albert – 23rd September 2016
By the time I got to The Albert on Friday night Fable and her band were already in full-swing and the darkened room was full to bursting with fans eager to catch up with the latest developments from this exciting new emerging artist. Fable arrived on the Brighton scene a couple of years ago as a fully-stylised vision; a clearly defined aesthetic fronted by an enigmatic performer has epitomised her appearances and releases so far. Tonight is no different on that front, if anything she's ramping things up a gear – the band are more on board, wearing dark outfits, the bassist with an over-sized medieval-looking hood, an Ouroboros symbol (the mythical serpent that consumes its own tail) popping up here and there. Fable is ever more provocative, scantily clad in a see-through fishnet top, with crosses of black tape covering her nipples. Perhaps it should come across as more overtly sexual, but I don't even notice this feature at first as I am drawn in by the flourishing hands of her performance, and those dark-lined intense eyes. She fixes the crowd with powerful stares, as if she is here to judge us, and not the other way round.
Devendra Banhart – Ape in Pink Marble
Banhart's ninth record, his first in three years, is a study in restraint – there's an overriding mellowness, minimalism, and often melancholy that holds the album together. In fact, in many ways, this could be considered as his most cohesive record to date, although people who are hoping "most cohesive" means twelve new equivalents to 'I Feel Just Like A Child' might be disappointed. Production-wise the album harks back to his early lo-fi work, much of the instrumentation saturated in the warming warble of what sounds like tape-phase and, apart from on a couple of key tracks, songs have been gently adorned – there are few tracks with a full drumbeat-based backing track, for example. The sounds that fill the record, though, resemble old-fashioned Casio synth sounds, which break-up and decay in satisfying analogue ways – it's lush, loungey and exotic.
Devendra Banhart was born in Houston, Texas, before moving to his mother's native Venezuela aged two, where he was raised before returning to the United States, this time to California, as a teenager. His background moving through those cultures clearly influenced his future direction in becoming the atypical American singer-songwriter we know today. His music is often enriched by rhythms from Latin America and beyond and here on Ape in Pink Marble we go quite far beyond; with the odd bed-fellows of Japanese koto playing, 70s elevator music synths and retro Italian disco. Recorded in Los Angeles with producers and long-time collaboraters Noah Georgeson and Josiah Steinbrick, the laid-back vibe and endless sunny days of California have certainly seeped in, creating the perfect setting for Banhart's smooth vocals. A soft, comforting, warm blanket of a voice that often trills off at the end of a phrase with a satisfying warble of vibrato. It's as if Banhart has a Leslie speaker built into his chest that he can flip on at will, it never sounds forced or laboured – the most natural thing in the world, which most singers would find a real challenge to pull off.
The Ape in Pink Marble title can be interpreted as a primitive, or unrefined man, encased in the pink marble of a luxurious hotel lobby. Each of the songs telling different stories that pass through this setting, that gets a mention in several lyrics. I often find myself imagining the hotel itself, as the centre-piece to a Wes Anderson film. There's that timeless, yet distinctly retro feeling to the whole album that creates a sense of place, and that's what I mean when I say it's his most-cohesive work. There's this sense of tying the whole record to a time and a place; albeit a fictional, or metaphorical space and a dreamy sense of time, even though that is just some nostalgia-soaked non-specific time in the past.
The opening song, and the first to be teased from the album 'Middle Names', is a key track, setting the mood that the album begins and ends with. Banhart's middle name is famously 'Obi', named for the Jedi Knight (kooky parents!) and he sees middle names as being these secret parts of ourselves, that we only reveal to people we know well. Mostly just guitar and voice, this sparse piece is full of longing. Banhart has said it is about a friend of his, a fellow musician who passed away. Asa Ferry, from the band Hearts and Coronets, was famous for disappearing on long benders and this song is apparently quite literally remembering times (including the one rare day when rain fell in LA) when Devendra would walk around LA and wonder if he might bump into his old friend and if he would still recognise him now.
The album ramps up in the middle with two songs that have more of a backbeat than anywhere else on the album, 'Fancy Man' and 'Fig in Leather' manage to move in a different way to the rest of the record without feeling too jarring. They maintain the general aesthetic, while telling these playful, but potentially dark stories of seduction and faded glory. 'Theme for a Taiwanese Woman in Lime Green' begins the climb down from these two up-beat centre-pieces. It's pure lounge, exotica, floating along with licks of soft jazz and Banhart's vocal in the chorus sounding like it's actually run through the tremolo built into a Fender Rhodes, it raises out from the bedroom lo-fidelity when glorious strings rise up in the middle, beautifully recorded and drenched in expensive reverb.
The slight Casio keyboard bossa nova groove, and impressionistic soft keys of 'Saturday Night' would make it an odd choice for the lead single and music video contender if it didn't so perfectly capture the overall mood of the album. The video, with Banhart holding a cute babie, shot in a semi-abstract space of club lights and their lens flares is politely disarming. The lyrics point us toward some of the disquiet bubbling beneath the relaxing vibe of the album, "please don't love me because you're through hating you". This isn't a Saturday night for partying, it's one to stay in to brood, contemplate and mourn the ongoing loss of a lover who is still hanging around but not quite coming back. Banhart is making a complex point about loving and longing here, it isn't enough for his lover to return because she's over her issues, implying that self-forgiveness and a return to loving are quite distinct phases not to be mistaken for one another. Perhaps this is the source of the melancholy that pervades the album, Banhart is the ape in the lobby, trapped in a melancholy limbo populated by exotic characters waiting for the world to start moving again.

Cut Your Hair
By Jay Allen Sanford, March 24, 2010
Blurt Music News
"Frank Sinatra gave me my first singing job, Bob Dylan encouraged me to pursue a recording career, and Buck Owens told me, 'Cut your damn hair,' " says Temecula's Michael Chain, whose turn at '60s pop stardom came while fronting the original Knack.
"Capitol Records popped my band's cherry but didn't call the next day or even send us flowers," says Chain. "They were building us up as their replacement for the Beatles, but then we got dropped and had nowhere to go but down."
Chain is hoping to publish a memoir of those days, The Golden Book of Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll: A Scratch and Sniff Guide to Touring in the Sixties. Included is his account of touring and recording as pink-spandex-clad superhero rocker Pinkiny Canandy, who opened for Led Zeppelin at the Las Vegas Ice Palace in August 1969. "With all their stuff crowding the stage," recalls Chain, "finding an open spot wasn't easy. Zeppelin intimidated you with their equipment.… A family of six could've lived in John Bonham's drum set. We set up our equipment in front of theirs. We now knew how saplings felt in a giant redwood forest."
Chain also dishes on fellow '60s scenesters such as Rodney Bingenheimer ("the bean-pole Rula Lenska of groupies"), ego-driven producer Mike Post ("Napoleon had a Mike Post complex"), and Sly Stone, with whom Chain's band negotiated a marijuana swap that allegedly spawned the catchphrase "lid pro quo." Also included are samples of Chain's "road Zen" observations:
When local bands play for free, they are overpaid.
Concerts are like sex — you shoot your wad, then pizza.
Never trust a map over a man — a man can be tracked down and beaten for giving you bad directions.
In the kingdom of assholes, club owners have their own phylum — classes: cheap, cheaper, cheapest.
On tour, you are either the headliner or the homeless.
In the record business, not only does one hand not know what the other is doing, it pisses on its own shoes.
You will only need what you didn't bring.
The musicians' union fights for your dues, not for your money.
Good bands put asses in the seats, great bands get asses out of 'em.
Michael Chain appears nightly at Pala Casino through Thursday, March 25, and at Alpine Village in Torrance on April 1.

I'm curious about his history with The Knack. He fronted for them in the 60s (?) but they didn't break through until 1979. Were there several incarnations of The Knack through the 60's/70's or was Michael Chain's version a different band altogether?
