Julien Baker has announced an upcoming EP Little Oblivions Remixes, and recently released the first track "Bloodshot," which was remixed by Helios. While I was slightly disappointed to find that there is no collaboration with Boards of Canada on the EP, I am very excited to hear what this collection has in store. I know I have the reputation that I'm "just a punk," and folks who have asked me to review things for the blog have said "but I know you only like heavy music," so perhaps it's confusing that I'm the one writing up this release. Yes, it is a fact that I consider myself a "punk" first and foremost and I love heavy, fast and loud music above just about anything else, but it is definitely not even remotely true that that's all that I like.
I am in fact a big fan of Baker's work (and she's a punk too ffs) and have had a long standing, albeit mostly casual on and off relationship with ambient and atmospheric music (one I should probably explore more). I do enjoy a lot of Helios' earlier releases too which also may come as a surprise to some readers. More than that, I'm really a postmodernist at heart, so I absolutely love re-interpretations of existing work and what new things can come out in the deconstruction and rebuilding process. Like an audio collage that tears something down to its roots to paste it back up again, it really expands the range of sonic possibilities and I am all about that. With all of that being the case, I was rather delighted to hear this collaborative effort between these two artists. It ticks a lot of boxes for me for sure.
Baker already nails some otherworldly qualities in her music all on her own, hitting unimaginable highs at several points across her catalog, but the combination with Helios takes it off in a totally different direction- still intense but without being so direct, an atmospheric contemplation on an already strong song that hits those same kinds of highs in a cleverly indirect way. The overall sonic vibe of the two versions of "Bloodshot," seem to be not all that far off from each other to start, but as the song proceeds onward and particularly after the bridge, the original builds to a harder hitting crescendo with frenzied drums before tapering off to slide away quietly. While the remix does hit it's own crest, it's a more muted version before drifting out and leaving us to reflect.
Vocally the real differences emerged for me. Throughout the remix, the vocals almost seem to hide out at points, still audible and there, but not so potent in the mix. The high point of the song is the line, "There's no glory in love only the gore of our hearts. Let it come for my throat, take me and tear me apart." On the original song this comes at the listener in a direct and straightforward way. Here on the remix, Helios has recast this: the slight pause in the music comes as in the original, before the vocals come in warbling, Baker's delivery now transformed to a gossamery almost intangible shimmer; somewhere off in the ether, she emerges as a not quite corporeal form, a bright flash in the shadows for a startling moment before dipping back into the dark again. This song serves as a gorgeous first look at the upcoming six song Little Oblivions Remixes EP which will feature remixes/reworking by Half Waif, Jesu, Gori and more.
Read a joint interview with Baker and Keith Kenniff of Helios describing how the collaboration came about and the remixing process.
Little Oblivions Remixes will be out September 1st on Matador Records; Baker will embark on a fall tour starting on September 3rd in Birmingham, AL; She will perform in New York on September 14th at Beacon Theater.

EPO Equine was scientifically engineered to naturally stimulate the production of EPO (erythropoietin) without the use of drugs. EPO increases red blood cell levels and blood volume resulting in increased blood carrying capacity. When this happens your horse will be able to run or perform at a faster or more rigorous pace for a longer period of time. The all natural ingredients are beneficial to horses of all ages, performance levels and disciplines.
Loading dose: 2 servings per day for the first 30 days.
Pre-race dosage: 4 servings per day for 3 days leading up to event.
"This product is the best blood builder I have found on the market yet. It is worth its weight in gold and as any race horse or other performance horse trainer knows good blood is a key element in getting the best race out of your horse. I train 20 racehorses and own a majority of them and this product just plain works. I have witnessed it turn low blood counts into beautiful blood counts in 14 days on multiple occasions. This is the only blood builder that I will swear by."


It has been announced that the works currently underway at Dunbar Leisure Pool are to be last longer than originally thought.
On Monday October 26, works commenced, to upgrade the key operational components of the centre, in an investment totalling in excess of £1.6million, which will secure the longevity of this premier East Lothian visitor attraction for years to come.
To date, the major task of dismantling the existing air handling units, which regulate the temperature throughout the building, is well underway; as is the dismantling of the main electrical distribution boards.
The swimming pool, now completely drained, has been transformed into a maze of scaffolding, as specialised tradesmen make the necessary repairs to the flume staircase and internal structure.
While significant progress has been made; there's still lots to do. The poolside shower and toilets are getting a refresh and brand new low-energy light fittings are being installed throughout the building. Contractors are making progress on the removal and installation of the approximate 5km worth of electrical cables which circulate the building.
It was initially hoped that all of the works scheduled for the maintenance upgrade would be complete within 8 weeks. Regrettably this time scale has had to be extended, as unforeseen delays in the production of the custom built main electrical control panel and anomalies found in the rewiring work, amongst other issues, are curbing progress in the schedule of works.
It is now hoped that the Swimming Pool will be able to reopen early /mid-January; with the Bodyworks Gym, Activity Hall and Health Suite, (with its brand new Steam Room) reopening a short time thereafter.

Q: Console logger called twice on one mousedown I am experiencing a strange problem with jQuery's onmousedown. I have a plugin, to which you can assign buttons and add some options, like so:
$.lollipopbutton(".buttons button", {
    bubble_color: "rgba(0,0,0,1)"
});

One thing that happens in this plugin is that when you click the buttons, an animation will trigger. However, I only want to allow this animation to be triggered x times at a time. Therefore, I added the option maxClicks (default = 10 for test purposes). Additionally, every button gets a jQuery data element to keep track of a counter:
counter = $this.data("counter") || 0;

we can then compare the counter to the maxClicks option:
if (counter <= args.maxClicks) {}

and put the function we only want to execute twice at a time in there:
        if (counter <= args.maxClicks) {
            // Do stuff
            $this.data("counter", ++counter);
            console.log(counter);

            setTimeout(function () {
                $this.children(".bubble:first").remove();
                if (!$this.children(".bubble").length) {
                    $this.data("counter", --counter);
                }
            }, totalTimeout);
        }
    });

But the strange part is that console.log() returns twice on each click, always two subsequent numbers (e.g. 1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6 and so on).
I tried everything, but I couldn't isolate the problem. What am I missing here? The plugin (wip) can be found here in a fiddle.

A: It is being called twice because within the lollipopbutton function you attach a mousedown handler. You call lollipopbutton like
$.lollipopbutton(".buttons button", {
    bubble_color: "rgba(0,0,0,1)"
});

$.lollipopbutton(".buttons button.white", {
    text_overlay: false
});

This will attach the mousedown handler twice.

Q: override duplicate device driver for kernel i'm trying to update kernel with my linux device drivers , but kernel provide the same drivers . according to driver precedence in /etc/depmod.d/dist.conf  built-in drivers take precedence over weak-updates.
there is way to change the precedence in kernel by crating you own config file in /etc/depmod.d/yourdriver.conf
override sym53c8xx 2.6.32-* weak-updates/sym53c8xx
http://people.redhat.com/jcm/el6/dup/docs/dup_book.pdf
however i'm trying the same thing but it doesn't include my driver after i run depmod . has anyone done that before here ? any help is appreciated.

A: There is special folder under /lib/modules/<version>, i.e. /lib/modules/<version>/extra. If you put modules there they will override whatever you have in kernel for the same device. I checked this on Fedora, but I think it's a standard practice.

A: http://people.redhat.com/jcm/el6/dup/docs/dup_book.pdf had the correct answer , i didn't read it carefully .
create a conf file in /etc/depmod/foo.conf and add this to file
override foo * weak-updates/foofolder

Nurse to retire after over 50 years' service
A nurse who began her career during a flu epidemic is due to retire during the Covid-19 global pandemic more than 50 years later.
Specialist nurse Joyce Pennington works for Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust (CNTW) and started as a cadet nurse at St Nicholas Hospital in 1971, aged just 16.
"I left school at 15 and didn't know what to do," Joyce said. "My mother was a nurse at St Nick's and she suggested I become a cadet nurse. I still remember my first day really well; everyone was so friendly, and it was like being part of a big family."
Not long after Joyce started, there was a flu epidemic and staff were required to wear masks on the ward, much like today.
After qualifying as a staff nurse, Joyce worked on a busy admissions ward, and it wasn't long before she became a ward sister. Joyce moved to working night shifts after taking time out to have a baby.
It was on one of those night shifts that she met a deaf lady who communicated in British Sign Language (BSL). Joyce wasn't able to understand or communicate with her. This was the start of something she describes as the biggest achievement in her career.
"I'd never met a deaf person before or had seen anyone use sign language," Joyce explained.
She saw an advert in the newspaper for a British Sign Language (BSL) taster course and decided to sign up.
"While I was doing the course I began to wonder where Deaf people with mental health issues go for help. I tried to do some research, there was no internet in those days, and I had to go to the library. I telephoned people, wrote letters, but had very little response."
Joyce said she soon came to realise that the lack of replies was because there weren't any mental health services for Deaf people in the area.
"The closest place was Manchester and I just thought this was so unfair that deaf people should have to travel a 300-mile round trip to see a doctor who could understand them and knew about deafness and deaf culture," she said.
By this time Joyce was working as a ward manager and took it upon herself to set up a service for deaf people in the region.
"I started by gate-crashing a lot of consultant and GP meetings and asking people what they would do if a deaf person came into their surgeries and clinics and how they would assess their needs.
"It was at one of those meetings that I met staff from the National Centre for Mental Health and Deafness, the John Denmark Unit (JDU) in Manchester, which was the nearest service specialising in mental health and deafness, and I asked if I could work with them."
In 1994 Joyce started working with a doctor and a Community Psychiatric Nurse (CPN) from the JDU one day a month and then in 1997 she took part in a pilot study working two days per week as a CPN, covering the whole of the North East. She soon realised two days a week wasn't going to be enough and in 1999 left her ward manager role to work as a CPN with deaf people.
Setting up this service and developing it over the years is something Joyce is extremely proud of.
"We are a very small regional tertiary service covering two large mental health trusts, CNTW and Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust (TEWV). It is the only stand-alone community-based mental health service for Deaf people in England who have a consultant psychiatrist working with them. There are so few services in the country, even now, so it's such an enormous achievement.
"Part of our role is to remove barriers for Deaf people accessing services and educate other services on how to communicate and work with deaf people. I hope the team is able to grow further to include staff from other disciplines."
Another stand-out career moment was in 2010 when Joyce did a lecture tour in Australia with Dr Margaret du Feu (OBE). There she met with health professionals to talk about mental health and Deafness and how to work with Deaf people and make services accessible.
She met with health ministers to discuss establishing dedicated mental health services for Deaf people and visited Deaf clubs, meeting the community to talk about mental health issues. The following year, Joyce organised a Mental Health and Deafness tour of the North of England and Scotland for the chief executive of Deaf Children Australia.
In 2018, she was awarded the Trust's 'Chair's NHS 70th Award' for her achievements. The following year she was nominated by the Trust to attend the Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace.
Joyce has announced she will retire at the end of February following a fruitful career. She plans to spend some of her time in Spain, travelling and looking after her grandchildren.

Check your lights and tires, spray your lines and cross your fingers. The season of DOT Blitz is upon us again.
Every year DOT pulls more drivers over and leaves them stranded on the side of the road or in a scale house, waiting on a repair shop to get a service truck out to them. In the end they wind up paying almost double what it would have cost just to fix it right the first time! Everyone dreads it and everyone waits until the last second to do something.
Buy that ten dollar gladhand that will save you $200 in service calls when that angry or grouchy DOT officer pulls you over. No one wants to pay that amount of money for something so trivial, so why not take care of it when you can?
There are many ways to check what's going on with your trailer that start with just a simple pre-trip check, all the way to having a shop walk around it and check it for you. The first place to start checking your lights, for example, would be to start with your pigtail. Check the connections and make sure there are no cuts in the line that visibly show wiring.
Sometimes it isn't always the most difficult thing that knocks a light out of service. Always start at the front of the trailer and go backwards. You know your truck and you know how it reacts to the trailers that you haul, you know when things go wrong. A mudflap gets ripped off, a tire goes bald. If you wouldn't ignore your truck then you shouldn't ignore your trailer either! Trailers almost always have problems before the truck and when things go wrong they can damage the truck.
DOT officers are looking for your trailer, one light out, a mudflap missing, and a bald or blown tire. If they pull you over one small audible air leak could shut you down and it is almost unbelievable how often leveling valves are to blame for air leaks that ruin runs and tie drivers up for hours waiting for repairs.
Take the time now to avoid time lost later! You'll thank yourself in the long run.

I'm delighted to be guest posting for 2e Designs! Today I'd like to share a collection of fun living rooms featuring swanky 60s style. 1960's interior designs were all about bold colors, crisp geometric shapes and sleek curving lines. And let's not forget, shag carpets and plastic furniture! I hope you enjoy these rooms as much as I do!
Stark geometric lines draw the eye to every corner of the room in this very chic 60s inspired living room. Wood paneling and wall of intricate brass fills the room with rich natural textures.
Shag carpet, check. Shaggy floor pillows, check. This bright and airy living room showcases a relaxed boho style that was very popular in the 1960s.
Bold patterns and polished wood furniture clash in a fun, unexpected way in this living room. Plenty of mirrors help make the room feel more spacious, as well.
A bright, mustard yellow makes this vignette pop, while the chic modern furniture and art are the perfect 60s era pieces. The brassy floor lamp adds in more geometric lines.
The velvety avocado sofa makes a great textural contrast against the brick wall. Fresh greenery and an iconic shag carpet complete this cozy, swanky living room.
The very modern stools and the minimal, geometric fireplace are as popular today as they would be in the 1960s. A star burst mirror gives a nod to the space age trends of the 60s as well.
