Hey, everyone. How's it going? I'm Chase Jarvis. Welcome to another episode of Chase Jarvis Live here on CreativeLive. This is where I sit down with the world's top creatives, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders and I do my best to unpack actionable and valuable insights with the goal of helping you live your dreams in career and hobby and in life. My guest today is Roman Mars. Welcome. Thanks, thanks for having me. It's a pleasure. It's the first time our meeting right here in these... Actually, we met in the hallway. But I need to get a little backstory. We're here because, well, Print Magazine's got us all together in this box. I just got off the... I had my picture taken by our friend, John Keatley. You're next. But this particular section of what we're doing here is... Well, you heard my little intro. I do my best to unpack actionable and valuable insights from people like you who are super smart and leading your specific whatever it is that you're interested in. That's what I ...
wanna know. So, podcast 99% Invisible. Legendary. What work do you think you're doing? Like, when you think of the work that you set out to do every day. I mean, fundamentally, I tell stories, factual stories, about the world that make you notice and appreciate the world in a different way. That's what we're after. And how did you arrive at that particular thing? Go back x number of years and then give me a little bit of a timeline. And now you're able to articulate that point of view really clearly. I mean, I was this public radio superfan. I was working on my PhD in genetics for a long time. I listened in the lab and listened to NPR all the time. At a certain point, I realized that, if I could study a new thing every day, like a journalist does, instead of studying the MRRM gene cluster in corn every single day... I was gonna say fruit flies? That was what my memory of genetics... It was transposable elements in corn, what I worked on. And then, my life would be perfect. And so, I set about rearranging my life. (chimes) Want me to retake? No, it's all... Faux pas and everything are included in this show. So, I set about rearranging my life to work in radio and do that type of thing. So, I moved out here. I did some tech jobs for a little while. And then I began volunteering at KALW in San Francisco, 91.7. That was 16 years ago. Wow. And then I worked on every type of radio show that exists in public radio. Public affairs shows, call in shows, music shows, interview shows. And, seven years ago, I began to become interested in how to tackle design on the radio. And that's what 99% Invisible became. First show. Do you remember it? Oh, the first show I ever did for 99. Yeah. It was a piece about acoustics, acoustical design, in the San Francisco Public Library. So, I talked to the acoustic designer. And, in the San Francisco Public Library, there's this large seven story atrium. Like a center area. And they were gonna put the circulation desk at the bottom of that seven story ceiling. And the acoustic designer said, "If you put things there, no one will be able to hear. And the library patrons won't be able to talk to the librarians and that sort of thing." So, they kind of tucked it underneath the first floor. And that's where it sits today. And this is a good piece of design. It also sort of created this interesting problem. If you ever walk into there, there's this round atrium area that you have to step down into. And because it was originally designed to have a desk in the middle, people don't know where to go and what to do. And they get stuck. And they kind of run into each other. And so, they put up this sort of janky theater rope-style thing to direct traffic. At least it was there seven years ago. I don't know if it's there now. And so, they had this $150 million building. The design problem that was created via this one good solution was being solved by a $12 theater rope. And I love that. The unintended consequences of trying to think through a problem, solve the problem, and then try to deal with it. Ripple effect. You know, what you solve. Yeah, exactly. And so, I love that kind of stuff. That was the first episode. It's so well produced. The show. Oh, thanks. Is that because of the actual radio background? Yeah, I mean... Is it a coincidence, also, that acoustics was the first show? I mean, that was not a coincidence. In the beginning, I was nervous about how we could cover visual design. And so, that one made a lot of sense. But, in terms of the radio part or how it's produced, my background's from radio. I like things to be radiophonic, which means that it can't be something that's... If you could print the text of it and read it yourself and get the feel of it, then you're not making radio. You have to make a thing that really can only be consumed by the ear. And so, I look for things to make it rhythmic and interesting. A lot of the material is pretty dense. So, there's lots of... I break in and help explain things. And the voices are active. So that your ear is always interested. And so, that's just my aesthetic. It's what I like. And, also, that's the fun part to me. Placing music, getting good sound. I love the sound of peoples' voices. I love every type of voice. I wasn't thinking of interrupting you. I was just thinking, "I think I could listen to your voice pretty much for three hours straight." I'm just kind of getting... If I start leaning in and getting cozy here... It's very kind of you. But I, even though I'm complimented a lot on my voicing, there's a lot of... People are really critical of people's voices on the radio. We hear about it all the time. Young women, in particular, have this thing that I think is purely invented called vocal fry. Invented by people who are annoyed by it. Not invented by the women who have it. And it's just a way to shut women up even more. And it's super irritating to me. But I love the sound of different voices. There's no proper radio voice, in my opinion. I like all the different variety. And so, we try to bring all those things in. And I just love hearing... When you're doing your job right as a radio presenter and an interviewer... I've fallen in love with every person I interview in the process of working with the sound of their voice. And so, that's the best part. And when you can convey that in the piece, then you've done a good job. One of the things that this particular gathering of people, while we're here, while I'm grabbing interviews with the folks that... Debbie Milman has helped curate this piece for the Print Magazine. And then I'm sort of sub-curating an opportunity to connect with some people that I think are expressly talented and have insights that the people who pay attention to this show and here, on CreativeLive, a community of 10 million... Creativity with a small c I think of as design and photography and architecture. And then there's creativity with a big C, which is part of the solution to every problem we will ever know. Whether it's math or physics or... I'm wondering if you can refine that for me for a little bit. How do you think about the work that you do in the light of creativity with either a small c or a big c? And does the big c matter? I mean, it all matters in the sense that I like to talk about small things and use them to point out big things. And I don't always cover the most important and pressing issue. But I think being aware of design and being thoughtful about the world makes you more prepared and better to solve the problems of the world all around. So, I might be only talking about whatever the pitch of the angle of a curb cut on a sidewalk, but I'm really talking about bureaucracies and rules and regulations and bigger ideas. And so, those are the good shows. When it comes to creativity, the part of me that... I'm a worker. And, fundamentally, I don't consider myself especially creative. I just consider myself especially hard working. And, to me, the best thing you can... The way you can talk about creativity to make it effective is just recognize that it's work. And that you solve the problem. You don't wait for inspiration. I don't believe in inspiration. I believe in just working. Chuck Close. There are artists who sit around and wait for inspiration to come and never get anything done. And the rest of us go to work. I'm a big believer in that. And so, that's the part. It's not... It's both the most important thing and not special at all. It is just like everything else. You just have to work through it. And you have to pick the part that you can tackle. So, when I work on a show, I don't necessarily write the intro first. I write the part I'm most excited to write first. And then I build out from there. And whatever thing you need to get you started, whether it's just a regular schedule or the fact that there's this great piece of music and you know you can just talk the hell out of it, you know, like talk right over it and it would set down so good and smooth. Like start wherever you can and find purchase and just do it. And just do it every single day. And the other part is I've been trying to... As my show has developed, I've become more of a businessperson on behalf of the show, 'cause I have employees and all these other things to do. But I need to open up Pro Tools every day. I need to open up my tools to do the job. And there are other people who could mix my show and do a better job than me. But I wanna be the last person to touch it. How much do you consider craft in your work? Are you thinking about these things on every... Is every... Do you make an attempt to consider every option, every piece of, every decision... How precious do you feel like you are with your craft? At this point, I'm not especially precious. Mainly because... Go back to the piece on work, right? Yeah, I mean, in the beginning, you have that luxury in the time and the lack of success gives you some amount of freedom. It's weird. Celebrate if you're just starting. You got all sorts of opportunity to make mistakes and no one's watching. Right. And so, you have that time to futz over everything. And you have that notion that you're right, your way is right. You're gonna make it your way, the right way. Now, I've made 16 years of radio. There's lots of ways to make a radio story good. And sometimes my employees... You know, they're super talented. More talented than I am. That's why I have them. But they don't do things the way I would do them. And that's okay. And letting go of that is important when you're developing. So, I don't know how we got here, necessarily. But I... Creativity with a small c. And craft. So, craft, the idea of craft. I do not futz over every detail anymore. Mainly 'cause there's two reasons. One, I have a deadline every single week. A show comes out every week. No matter if I love it or just kind of like it. I have to at least get to a kind of like it. It doesn't matter if you got in a car crash that week or it snowed and you missed your flight. None of those things matter when you gotta... You gotta do it. And so, I believe in the craft to a certain extent. And then there's a certain point where you just have to do your job and get it out, 'cause people count on it. Personal style, how do you get it? Personal style. Yeah. I don't know. But it's a tough question. It's a question I get asked as my life as a maker. And, now, with CreativeLive, I'm trying to help millions of other people do that. It's a tough question. I always tell people that stealing plus lack of talent equals creativity. So, in your attempt to do what other people do and your inability to do it, 'cause you don't have enough talent to do it, you will create a new thing out of that. And so, I believe in trying on as many possible things that you can to find your voice through other people's stuff. Because, in the beginning... This is something... He's sort of a giant in my field. His name's Ira Glass. And he mentions this a lot. You are in this because you know what's good. But you're not capable of creating things as good as you know are good. And, in that period of time, you just have to work it out. And so, but I like... You know, when I was creating my show, I knew I wanted it to be 40% DeMayo's Memory Palace, 40% Jad Abumrad's Radiolab, and 20% Benjamen Walker's Theory of Everything. And, even though... 99%... And then 99% Invisible. And so, all of that stuff together, even though those are all me copying their style in different ways, the alchemy of that, that became me. It's not not genuine. I can't do what they do. But, when we mix it all together and put it through me, then, all of a sudden, it is a thing. Remix culture. I totally believe in that. And so, just don't be afraid of that part. I think that's a good part of finding your style through other things. And I think every... My wife is a singer. You know, you don't start out singing your own songs that you created, for the most part. Like, a lot of punk bands do. But, in general, you just, you learn to sing by taking classes and learning other... And then you find your voice through other peoples' voices. I think that's important part. Another piece of Ira Glass, which I think runs parallel to this conversation is the creative gap. Have you ever talked about that? Yeah, exactly. The distance between what you can see in your mind and what you can actually make. And, at some point, that starts out and the gap is massive. And then, over time... To the end that you are speaking to momentarily... When you start to get better and better and better and when the thing that you can see is the exact thing that you can create, I would say that that equals, let's call that mastery. I believe it's important to continue to move the goalposts. Because, if you're just lingering in mastery, that's one thing. But it's that gap, the struggle where happy accidents happen, ingenuity when you have to make something, you have to make what you have with what you've got. Talk to me about that a little bit. 'Cause I see that embedded in 16 years of shows. I mean, there's 16 years of me doing radio. It's six and a half years of shows for 99. So, I mean, the main thing I did to move the goalposts on my show was invite other people to do it. Because I did it by myself for the first couple of years. And then I had employees. The things that they create are not things I would create. And then I have to figure out how to edit that to make it what I want. And also, fit the style of the show. And have their voice in it, too. And so, that's the part of it that's a big deal to me. So, something you said in your last thought and has been... I've picked up on it just in the 10 minutes or 15 minutes we've been talking. Is you've called yourself many things. You've called yourself a creator. You've called yourself a businessperson. You've called yourself an editor. You've called yourself a lot of different things. I champion the idea that we're all hyphens now. We used to just be able to... Maybe you can take me through how you think about that. You used to just be the radio person. Or, before then, you were just the technician. And, now, you just described an ecosystem where you touch everything. So, talk to me about how you think about that. Is that good? Is it bad? Do you encourage people to specify or diversify? What's the POV from you? I mean, my favorite term for myself is producer. That's what I always was in radio. So, the producer, what I love about that term is you solve the problem. If you have to move the car to make sure the equipment comes in and then move it back out. Find some street parking. It doesn't matter how important you are in the scope of things, you have to do that thing. You have to order the food. You have to do... You have to fix the ISDN when it's down. You have to do everything. That, to me, is the ultimate. And that is you are utility player and you do everything to solve the problem. And so, the creative and business stuff, how I sort of manage those two... To me, a lot more of my job is solving the production problem of making sure everyone gets paid. It's a different problem than I used to solve. But it's still solving the problem of producing the show. And I like it. That the reason why the show works and some shows are successful and some aren't is that sometimes you can... There's one person that can handle all that stuff. And then, when you have to have too many of those people, 'cause one person can't handle it, it becomes harder and harder to fund that thing. But, luckily, I find I liked the businessy parts. It's not what I fell in love with. I mean, I fell in love with just the way people talk. And I wanted to be one of them. And I wanted to read books and talk to interesting people. And then I fell in love with the tools. I was in Pro Tools and I love the way I could use music to change a mood and I could use the rhythm of speech to change things. And then, in a way, I fell in love with the business parts. I loved raising money for what we did. 'Cause I thought it was important. So, I like all those things. And I keep a toe in all of them. But I let huge parts go. My show wouldn't exist without the workers, the producers who work on my show. There's some weeks I'm really involved. Some weeks I'm so much less involved. And all I know is, for the first... For the most part, with radio, the host gets so much credit. So, for 10 years of my radio career, I got way too little credit for what I did. And now I get way too much credit for what I do. I'm thinking of these two here. They're like, "Yeah." I'm looking at you, Matt. So, I guess it's kind of balancing out. But it's weird. And getting comfortable with that is a strange part of the development of when you create something and have it grow with other people in it. But I like it. I don't feel like I've lost complete touch with what I do, 'cause I still... When there's no show that's gonna come out, 'cause everything else is falling apart or something got killed or some kind of story that's run off the rails, I'm still the one who can put one together in seven days by myself if I had to. Because that's how I started the show. And I can still do it. I've just tested this. So, I know I can still do it. (laughter) But I don't like doing it, because those shows aren't as good. Because, without everyone involved, they're not nearly as good as they could be. So, I personally like when people get into... I mean, now people ask me about podcasts all the time. Before that, they asked me about how to get into public radio. And I always tell them to join a radio station, like KALW, where I came from, which was small and needed workers, needed help. And you had to do everything. And, if you showed up, you had a job to do that day. Whereas, if you got an internship at a big station, you would get someone coffee. And that's useless. You know, I believe in many hyphenates. And maybe even so much so that you're not defined by any one of those terms. There aren't enough hyphens for it to include everything. I love that answer. It lines up so much of my belief of a future, not just of creativity, but of employment. And the other side of the same coin is some people think of that from a fear base or a constricted mindset like struggle, but it's also opportunity. Like, you have so many opportunities to dip your toes into things. This 40 year work at the same company, get a gold watch, those days are over. The light at the end of the tunnel is either, depending on your mindset, it's either a train or it's the end of the tunnel. And I think the context you just put on that is awesome. I wanna talk, just for a second, about when things go wrong. 'Cause you just tested yourself and you said, "I know I can still do it. I just did that." So, is that, did you grab the ball before it hit the ground? What are some... Presumably, you have a memory or two of some painful shit. Sure, I mean, the way you know you have a healthy production is when you kill stories. When you are going down a path and you know it's not good enough to work and you have the flexibility and the person power to get something done anyway. And so, I don't consider those failures to be huge train wrecks. That's part of the process. You know, when you are presenting documentary and fact and journalism, you can get stuff wrong. And that's no fun at all. You know, people get upset about those things. And that's no fun at all. When you do something publicly, people are open and invited to comment. And I'm super sensitive about that stuff. And that feels terrible. But I would say the main thing's that were... The train wrecks that I feel right now are when my staff are disappointed in something that I did. That makes me feel terrible. And so, you just have to... The thing is, you have to have the long view of your work. So, I make a short show every week. And, to me, no one episode of the show represents what the show is about. And so, I hate it when people say, "What show should I listen to?" 'Cause, to me, that's not it. To me, I'm drawing this regression plot. This episode's about this. This episode's about this. It all kind of scatters. And sometimes they're about big things. Sometimes they're about small things. Sometimes they're about ideas. Sometimes they're about people. And then you draw this regression line. And that regression line is the thesis of the show. And so, you don't do that by one big, perfect episode. You do that by lots of different ones that make up a whole body of work. And so, you know, the ones that fall short are in a slightly different... They have different focus or part of that process. And, for those of you listening, you could interchange radio show with photograph, with painting, with design, with all of these things that... They're all proxy for one another in the process of making. That's what I love. In the particular lies the universal. And trying to do what you do so well is hone in on your radio show, but it's a proxy for making, basically, anything. Absolutely. There's a million instances. And then there's the work. Which photograph should I look at in your work? I don't even know what the answer is. So, to that same end, where I'm trying to employ some of the things that you brought up in your intro and talk about them here, you talked about having a visual... How can you make, first of all, something visually interesting on a radio show? And how do you talk or critique or think about, in some cases, visual design? Let's talk about your boots for a second. So, you talk about breaking things up. You talk about changing gears. We're gonna change gears for a second. Okay. So, you've got these boots. I commented on them earlier. And we'll contrast them to my shoes. And do what you do. Talk to me about your boots and how do we get the people at home that are listening to this on podcast... How to care about my boots. Yeah, to care about your boots. 'Cause you were... That's tough. I mean... You were kind of passionate about it, though. I love your boots, 'cause I've only seen those in brown. Well, I mean, in my personal case, I like to wear black belts more than brown belts. And so, I wanted some black boots. They also hearken back to my history of only wearing combat boots and Doctor Marten boots. Remember those? Remember the '90s? (laughter) It was the '80s and '90s for me. And I don't know if... I'd have to do a lot of research to find these interesting. I mean, they're called Indy Boots, because they hearken back to Indiana Jones, which is one of the greatest movies of all time. And I just... But they've got a finish on them that it looks like they want to be Indiana Jonesified. Yeah, you beat them up. This is the second time I've worn them. Yeah, but they're beautiful, though. But it's my second pair I bought. And I went back to them, 'cause I bought a pair of these and then I had another one in between and I bought these. I tend to wear stuff like this because I don't like to think about shoes all that much. I love pocket squares and I love waistcoats and things like that. But I wear these boots if I'm wearing a suit or if I'm wearing a T-shirt. And so, I like things that are versatile like that. Yeah, they just make me happy. And one of the things that gives me the greatest joy in the world is arriving early at the airport and getting my shoes shined. It's like a glorious experience. I'm a big believer in getting your shoes shined. It's like a massage or something. It's like relaxing. You talk to a guy who usually has a very interesting life. And so, there are very few shoeshines anymore. Except for in the airport. So, I found the one place that you can find joy in an airport is at the shoeshine. I'm at ESA FOBA three days a week, so I'm gonna look for you every time I walk by that shoeshine place. So, at terminal two. It's in the corner before the shops start. International... It used to be outside, but they closed that place down. Around the country, I know where the shoeshine is. Nice. I will always think of you as I walk by those. I'd like to, at the risk of being overly prescriptive, which I sense that you're wary of, I'm gonna ask you to be for a second. I don't know if it makes you uncomfortable. I'll do my best. Go with me on this one. There are people who want to do what you do. What are you telling them? What would you tell them if they were here? Just start. I mean, there's no secret formula. There is no secret to anything. It's just you do it and you can't plan it out. Especially if you wanna make radio. You have this supply... It's finite, luckily. This finite supply of horrible radio inside of you. And you can't think it out. You can't study it out. You can't listen to it out. You have to work it out. And, as you keep doing it, you will get better. And so, that's really it. And you can solve the problem of the money thing later. I mean, if you can't, then I understand that, 'cause I came from very humble means. But I just worked in the corners of the time to make it work. And then, if you have a combination of having the skills to do it and the right connections and the ability to sort of get people to pay attention to it, then you can make it. It's not... I wish I could tell you that, if you just worked hard, you could make it. I was super lucky. I had thought... I mean, no one knew what I did for 10 years. And then, all of a sudden, people cared. And I was just a good of a producer before that as I was afterward. So, luckily, I had some goods to deliver when people found me. But there is no guarantee that putting the effort in results in anything. But I know that not putting the effort in gets you nowhere. What is one thing that, if you told people about yourself, they would be surprised to know? (laughter) Surprised. My staff is always surprised that I really like to dance. I wouldn't have thought that. They consider me very buttoned up. I don't know why, but... They consider me very buttoned up and not... I have a very different... Let the waistcoat go and just... Yeah, I just like... That's one thing. I love dancing and I love... But the other stuff... I'm kind of like... My personality's been out through what I do a lot. And so... That's why. That's the nature of the question. Yeah, so, I would say the other thing is I swear a lot more, especially on Twitter and various other things. So, there's an impression of Roman Mars, the host of the show, who's super thoughtful, reads every plaque, pays attention to everything, is really careful about things. And then there's the person that can't be bothered by stuff and is not... To me, and I don't mean to talk in third person in any sort of egotistical way, but the Roman Mars host is an aspirational character. He's more thoughtful. He's more curious. He cares more about the world. The angry punk rock me, which is a huge part of me, just reacts and is not thoughtful and doesn't think about the other side of things. And just wants to fight. And so, that's a huge part of my personality that people don't get to very often, but my friends get to see it. The glorious angry side of me. You mentioned punk rock. You mentioned punk. You mentioned Doc Marten's. Punk band? I was never... I worked a lot with them. I was basically the booker of a lot of bands and I did my own sort of thing. But I grew up on Washington, DC hardcore. I'm still a straight edge. It was my thing. And so, I love that stuff. And a lot of what I did... I created, with PRX, I created this collective podcast called Radiotopia, which is like my little punk rock label. And I've always wanted one. And I made it in podcasting instead. And so, the ethics of that were all built... The way we do our contracts, the way we don't own anything of anybody's, the way we try to treat people and they take care of their own work and take care of themselves, to me, it's my Dischord Label. It informs every part of my life. My history with punk rock music and punk rock ethic. We share that in common. Just the DIY ethos. The if you can't buy it, then build it, if you can't find it, then make it, and, if not you, then who? Time to get to work. Absolutely. Any particular characters from that era that... I mean, my hero was Ian Mackaye. I mean, and so it's the way... Minor Threat Ian? Minor Threat. Yeah, Minor Threat and Fugazi and Embrace. Hi there, I don't believe we've met. My name's Ian and I'm from Minor Threat. Yeah, exactly. The way he comported himself and did his business, which is a strange part to take from that, but I recognized that. And it was about doing something small that was also universal. So, he was interested in documenting a single scene, the Washington, DC hardcore scene. And it had ripple effects out in the world. It had ripple effects for me while I was growing up in Central Ohio. And so, it was both small and big. It was careful. It was like... I always knew that the next Dischord release I would like and I would also be challenged by. Every Fugazi album that ever came out, first time I listened to it, I hated it. And then I loved it. And then you loved it, right? And all art should be this balance between comfort and challenge. And, if it's too comfortable, like a lot of punk is... So, punk can be really dismissed kind of easily. It tends to be all comfort and no challenge a lot of the time. So, I don't know, the first album sounds exactly like the fifth album. And it's comforting. But it gets tiresome. The ones who really... The ones I fell in love with were the ones where I kind of hated what they did next. 'Cause I want them to be like they were before. And then I grew to love what they did. So, that was a big part of what Dischord was about. It's always about challenging with the style of music and about the range of what they did. Do you think about your career in those terms, also? Are you trying to do that with your show? Or is it subliminally? I mean, in my best days I think so. A lot of times you just get bored. I mean, that's what drives that stuff forward is you're bored with yourself. And so you always wanna do something different. But it's nice to rest on comfort. Like, you can't not provide it. 'Cause there was a moment where I had to pick my staff up off the floor the day after Trump won the election. Because they basically wanted to... Crawl on the floor. Do that and also only do basically anti-Trump things. I was like, "Well, that's not our job." It's part of our job. But it's not all of our job. So, 'cause our job is still to provide comfort. Our job is still to do the things that people care about that we've been doing the whole time. And, when we can fit in the parts that challenge, that's great. But the comfort part is not... It's not that the challenge part is the noble part and the comfort part is the weak, capitalist, horrible part. You know, comfort is good, too. And so, I like that there's shows that people can rely on that provide something that's thoughtful and interesting. And I think that makes the world a better place. Even if you're not just screaming at the world. I'm really moved by your idea that you shared earlier in the show about the people who are listening, what are they visualizing? And it's for that reason that I want to take a picture of you and I while we're actually on the radio show here. Okay. And it's weird that it's... Most of my background is in philosophy. The philosophy of art. Conceptually, I think that's really interesting thing playing with the media. And, if the media is the message, what is an auditory experience of... 'Cause you know what it looks like when people are taking a picture together. And, right now, there are gonna be hundreds of thousands of people going, "Hmm, I wonder what it looks like when Chase takes a picture with Mister Mars." So, it's cultural. But here we go. That's a little bit too bright. So, now you know folks. That's what it sounds like. (laughter) That's what it sounds like. I want you to know that I'm excited to have had you on the show. I feel like, as a reminder to the folks at home, that everything that you talked about with your radio show and making and producing and creating and working and business is 100% applicable to any of these. The making process, regardless of the medium. Any habits that you attribute to success or longevity or... From a practical side. Habits. Unfortunately, there's lots of bad habits to success, not just good habits. Which is you work too much and you work at night and you just work all the time. And I recommend working at home a lot, so you can still see your kids. And I exercise a lot. I run a lot. So, I do that every day. It's a big deal to me. But I don't know if it really helps. It must help my work. But I don't think it does that, necessarily. There's one way to check. Exactly. The thing is, because of stress or whatever, how I'm wired, I have chronic migraines. And the only thing that helps me is being so exhausted that I sleep really hard. And so, I basically have to... It's not that I'm like "Yay, exercise. I'm great at it." It's my medicine. I do it an hour and a half a day so that I'm exhausted when I'm done. An hour and a half a day. Okay, maybe 60 minutes? It ranges from 60 to an hour... Wow. But it's like energy runs downhill. So, if I was fine and doing things I loved every moment and it's really hard to get outside and it's wet and rainy, that's when it's really hard to exercise. When you're gonna be in blinding pain for three days and not get anything done, then working out for an hour is not that big a deal. That's right. You're like, I'm on it. Yeah, I mean, so it's not... Again, this is not noble. I don't have great habits. I'm not really good at things. It's just I know that the alternative is for me. If I was normal, then that wouldn't be an issue. The humility with which you approach the habit question and saying you have a bunch of bad habits, like working blah blah blah... Can you actually not be humble for a second and say something, for God's sakes, Roman? The good things I do? Yeah, what's a good habit you have that you would actually call good? Got nothing? I mean, I really don't think of it that way. I always think about the things I should be improving. I'm super messy. I understand that. It's what I'm trying to get you to break through here. (laughter) This is therapy. No, I'm trying to... I'm super messy. My stuff is not organized at all. Like, I have terrible habits about that stuff. We're clearly not gonna get there, folks at home. (laughter) I mean, the main thing is just to... The one thing that came over time that, for me, was the... When you have something that's your own, you always have work to do. So, the thing you can get good at and practice at, which is a good habit, is... So reluctant right now. You're so reluctant. Is to get good at assessing where your level of fear about getting something done actually matches the amount of time you have left. So that you're not freaking out about something. Like, I do radio. So, it never stops. There's always something to do. So, I work with some people who work in print and web. My digital director, Kurt, he doesn't understand... He's like, "Why aren't you banking shows and getting them done? Why don't you feel nervous all the time because of it?" And it's because I know we'll get them done. It's like, so, if you can match up with... You know your skill level, know what you can do, and get to the point where you're not fretting over a thing. Knowing where to put your worry, I guess, is the right thing to do. Is really important. And how do you get there? You get there with time. Time, right? That's it. It's like reps. It's just knowing your own habits. And knowing... I don't have to look at the hours. I don't have to estimate the hours. I know that, if I have a thing in 10 days and I haven't started... A live event, I can kind of wing part of that. It's triage. And that's important. Because you can't fight a war on all sides. So, getting good at that triage and knowing your own habits and your skill set to deal with that, that's a thing. And it only comes with time. When was the last time you gave a long form interview like this? Yesterday? Two days ago? A week ago? Or two months ago? I can't remember. It's been awhile. I mean, I did a stage thing a couple days ago. People asked me questions. But I usually interview. Yeah, that's one of the reasons I love this. And I'm excited about what we've recorded here. I appreciate you sharing so much. My pleasure. Keep doing what you're doing. The world loves it. I'm excited, 'cause I know that Debbie's excited to have you be a part of this Print thing. It's been fun connecting here for the last 45 minutes or so. Thank you so much. Thanks a lot. Appreciate it.

Maestro Spotlight: Irvind Garcia & Melissa Somoza - Danzantes Unidos®
Maestro Spotlight: Irvind Garcia & Melissa Somoza
Maria Luisa Colmenarez 20.11.2016 Art, Danza Folklorica, Danzantes Unidos, Danzantes Unidos Blog, Danzantes Unidos In The News, DUF 2017, folklorico, Mexican Art & Culture 0
Danzantes Unidos is blessed to be working with the dynamic duo of Irvind Garcia & Melissa Somoza.
Irvind Garcia was born and raised in East Los Angeles, CA. He has been dancing Folklorico for eleven years and has been teaching Folklorico to children for four years. Irvind danced under the direction of Benjamin Hernandez, whom Irvind considers a mentor and a form of inspiration for the work he does. Being first-generation in the States, Folklorico became an integral part in keeping him connected to his roots. More personally, it has served as a means of communication that has strengthened bonds with his family. It was Mexico, its music, its traditions and its history being kept alive through dance that created a sense of belonging and connection to his loved ones.
Irvind currently works as a Kindergarten teacher at the Toluca Lake YMCA program. Irvind's passion and dedication in Folklorico is for Folklorico to serve as a teaching tool for developing children. His drive for this first began as he successfully developed and delivered a folklorico program for children at a high needs school.
He takes delight in being able to synergize his passions for Folklorico and working with young children. His motivation is the ability to share with his students a love for our art and culture. This year will be the fourth consecutive year Irvind teaches at DUF.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Maestra Melissa Somoza was first fascinated with Folklorico during her sophomore year in high school after attending a school performance. That is where she began her dance career as a Folklorico dancer, at Bravo Medical Magnet High School. Within a year of learning how to dance, Maestra Melissa became one of the group's Folklorico instructors with an opportunity to teach her fellow classmates during her senior year of high school.
Her love for Folklorico extends now to over seven years as a dancer. She has been a part of various groups in the region of Los Angeles such as: Cal State University Los Angeles Yectli Folklórico Group, Ballet Folklórico de Los Angeles, and she currently dances with Grupo Folklorico Revolucion.
Melissa is working towards her degree in Child Development at Cal State University Los Angeles. She currently works as a lead K-1st grade teacher at the Salesian Boys and Girls Club in Boyle Heights. Aside from being a teacher and a dancer, Maestro Somoza has also studied various dance techniques that assist her in developing new ideas in ways to teach the youth. She has been an instructor for three years now, teaching Folklorico for Pre-K children.
"It fills me with great honor to be teaching at DUF for my third consecutive year and I am looking forward for the unforgettable bonds that will be formed." – Melissa Somoza

There are no open public schedule dates for CIW Web Design Professional course. We can offer you a private training or arrange a public course for you. Contact us here and we can make arrangements for your course.
This course prepares delegates for CIW Web Design Professional certification.
CIW Web Design Professional certification is a combination of CIW Web Design Specialist Certification and CIW E-Commerce Specialist Certification.
This short CIW Web Design Professional certification course is instructor-led and classroom based. This training can be taken as a part-time evening course or even on the weekends.


For those who are just beginning their adventure with Hebrew.The classes will start with learning the alphabet and reading. During the course the participant learns basic level Hebrew, how to use the present tense, and after a year of learning, can correctly form sentences in Hebrew on basic subjects.
For those who know the basics of Hebrew, can read and write as well as use present tense in their speech. During the course the participant deepens their knowledge of Hebrew, learns new words, and learns the past tense.
For those who speak intermediate Hebrew, can read and write, are able to use present and past tenses. During the course the participant deepens their knowledge of Hebrew, learns new words, and learns the future tense.
For those who are fluent in Hebrew in writing and in speech, and can use present, past, and future tenses. During the course we will be focus on writing and speech. Hebrew grammar will also be an important part of the course, but the main focus will be on broadening vocabulary and knowledge of Hebrew syntax. Participants will also prepare presentations on chosen topics, write essays and engage in discussions.
The group will learn the basics of Yiddish: the Jewish alphabet, conjugation of verbs, counting, diminutives and words which are part of the first texts and songs that we use during our class. After a year of study, students will be able to use the language on an elementary level.
Participants broaden their vocabulary through reading more complicated texts, learn compound and circumlocutory verbs, learn the passive voice, and complex sentences. After the course the students will be ready to begin their adventure with Yiddish literature!
To learn a language successfully you need a little more than just a weak list of words and grammar tables (although such support is always useful). The theory needs to be combined with practice in different forms – audio and video exercises, theater games, and many more. We will talk a lot, allow ourselves to make mistakes, so we can get used to the sounds, which are new to our ears. We will also read the Japanese elementary textbook for foreigners and we will pretend we are those foreigners in Japan by acting real situations in which we could find ourselves in the future. We will work individually and in groups. We will also remind ourselves some basics from the theory of linguistics. We will also stand on the trail of analogy and difference between the language/languages that we already know – in order to make our learning more effective and our knowledge more structured. Traditionally, we will do some homework and tests, which are supposed to strengthen our motivation. But all of this is coming after we learn the two alphabets – hiragana and katakana – since the third one, the kanji, will be learnedgradually so everyone has a chance to work out their own way of dealing with the new system of writing.
Japanese intermediate class is for those who have already learned Japanese for two semesters and know the basics as well as the hiragana and katakana alphabets.
It is possible to pay in instalments.
Join us and learn something new!


Charlamagne awarded Bow Wow A.K.A. Shad Moss for lying about having a private jet to travel for a press run while promoting Growing Up Hip Hop. Someone was on the flight with Bow Wow and grabbed a pic of him and posted it. The internet detectives were also quick to point out Bow Wow's pic of the private jet was a stock photo from a travel company.
Is Shad Moss delusion? Is he trying to be someone else? Time to grow up.

Fan has been to all since 1956
Benny Crowe went to his first Indiana All-Stars game in 1956. "I would have been there in '55," Crowe said. "But I didn't have my driver's license yet."

Benny Crowe went to his first Indiana All-Stars game in 1956.
"I would have been there in '55," Crowe said. "But I didn't have my driver's license yet."
In June of 1956, Crowe attended his first Indiana-Kentucky All-Stars game at a sweltering Butler Fieldhouse. The 16-year-old Crowe watched Oscar Robertson pour in 34 points as Indiana routed Kentucky and its Mr. Basketball, King Kelly Coleman. Two nights later, Crowe was among those in a sellout crowd at the Louisville Armory who watched Robertson drop 41 points on Kentucky in a 25-point blowout win.
Crowe, 82, was hooked. Since that game in 1956, he has kept coming back to the Indiana-Kentucky All-Stars games. Every year. Every game. Every game?

"Kentucky and Indiana," Crowe said. "I haven't missed a game. My daughter had to change her wedding date because of one of the games. We found in February when the game was going to be and they had picked out that weekend. I said, 'Wait a minute.' She still talks to me about that."
Crowe will be there again Friday in Owensboro, Ky., when the Indiana All-Stars travel to the Owensboro Sportscenter to take on the Kentucky All-Stars. And on Saturday, when the Indiana All-Stars host Kentucky at Southport Fieldhouse. If you are adding up the streak — that would be consecutive games No. 129 and No. 130. Indiana All-Stars director Mike Broughton plans to present Crowe a plaque Saturday for his amazing streak.
"He's a basketball freak," said his younger brother, Tony, owner of Crowe Automotive in Peru. "He always played basketball as a kid growing up and would go to high school games all the time. My brother, Donnie, was the same way. Those two were basketball freaks."
Benny attended school and played basketball at long-gone Miami County school of Butler Township, where he was part of the last graduating class in 1958. He wore No. 44 for the Tomahawks, who lost 91-32 in the school's final game to host Peru in the 1958 sectional. Benny was raised in the area where the dam was built to create Mississinewa Lake in the 1960s.
"I rode my bike to a lot of places that are under the lake now," he said. "There were a lot of barns and silos torn down when they decided to flood that into a lake."
By the time he graduated high school, Crowe was already three years into his streak. But attending the Indiana-Kentucky All-Stars games was just part of his normal routine.
"I was hung up on (basketball) when I was a young guy," he said. "I lived in Miami County so I went to games at Peru, I went to games at Kokomo. I remember seeing (Goose) Ligon and that Kokomo state championship team in 1961. I'd go to the Marion Regional, went to the Fort Wayne Semistate. I remember when Kokomo lost in the sectional three years in a row in 1955, '56 and '57. Everybody went to high school basketball games then — they packed the gyms. We would go to Muncie Central, Gary Roosevelt, Lafayette Jeff, wherever there were good games."
Crowe's brother, Donnie, would often accompany him to games as well (and will be there with him Friday, at Owensboro). Part of the routine when the Indiana All-Stars played in Kentucky would be to find games of their own in the days leading up to the game. George Hawkins, who played on the 1961 Kokomo state championship team, was part of a 3-on-3 team with the Crowes in 1997 that took runner-up for their age group at a streetball tournament in Louisville.
For many years, there was a week between the game in Kentucky and the game in Indianapolis.
"Usually four of us would go down to Louisville on Thursday and find a pickup game that afternoon," he said. "We'd play until the evening, then get up on Friday and play all day. There were courts in Jeffersonville next to the railroad tracks on 10th Street where we would play, too, and in Clarksville. We would play all over the place."
Crowe, who lives in Kokomo, played basketball into his 70s.
"You couldn't leave him open in the corner," his brother, Tony, said. "He's only about 5-9 but he'd rebound and fight for the ball. My brother, Donnie, you couldn't leave him open anywhere. He was like Dr. J but a little-bitty white guy."
Benny is not sure when his love of basketball exactly started, but he does remember listening to the Milan-Muncie Central state championship game on the radio in 1954 at age 14. "If we had class basketball in 1954," he said, "the Milan game wouldn't have happened."

Over the years, Crowe became familiar with folks at the Lions Club who operated the Kentucky side of the All-Stars series. He attended the first game in the series at the brand-new Freedom Hall in Louisville in 1957. "It had air conditioning, of all things," Crowe said. "I got to know the people down there pretty well. The Lions Club even had me to dinner the night before the game and I went to the practices two or three times. Every time they would switch gyms, they would let me go in and pick out my seats."
The games in Kentucky moved from Louisville to Lexington to Frankfort to Owensboro to Bowling Green to Louisville to Lexington to Frankfort to Louisville and now back to Owensboro. All the while, Crowe has been there to see them all. In fact, the All-Stars series was a single game in Indianapolis through 1954. The first time the doubleheader was played with a game in Kentucky was in 1955 — meaning that is the only year Crowe missed a game in Kentucky.
"I would always know the schedule by February so I could use my vacation time," Crowe said.
He will be there again Friday in Owensboro and Saturday at Southport Fieldhouse. And, if everything goes to plan, he will do it again next year. And the year after…

Mean a week near hong kong?
Free Travel guide Ooaj.com A free travel guide for holidays. Hotels in a week near hong kong, Bed and Breakfast!
You could easily spend a week, or several, in Hong Kong itself, or in any of many other areas of China.
This intinerary has suggestions for someone who wants to get out of Hong Kong (perhaps cannot afford Hong Kong, or has seen it before) and has about a week to spend.
The region in question is the Pearl River Delta. Politically, it is three areas, Guangdong province and two former colonies that are now Special Administrative Regions of China, Hong Kong and Macau.
Economically, it is a powerhouse. Guangdong does a third of China's exporting. The Delta is the fastest growing region of the fastest growing province of the fastest growing country on Earth. While Western countries have GDP growth of 1% to 3% annually, China has had 8% or better for years in a row. For the Delta area, closer to 15%.
You will need three separate visas for this trip, one each for Hong Kong, Macau and mainland China. See the Hong Kong, Macau and China entries for details.
Citizens of most countries can get Macau and Hong Kong visas at the airport, but will need to get a Chinese tourist visa in advance. You can get these from a Chinese embassy or consulate in your own country. For most passports, visas can also be obtained in Hong Kong via travel agents or the government office.
There are special visas which allow you into Shenzhen or Zhuhai but not out into the rest of China. They would not be useful for my suggested route, but might be for related trips. They may be obtainable at the border, but last I heard were not available for US or some other passports. Check the Shenzhen entry for details.
Guangzhou, provincial capital a few hours up river. Known as Canton in the tea-clipper era.
Two of these cities — Shenzhen and Zhuhai — were basically fishing villages until the 1970s. Then they were made Special Economic Zones and developed rapidly. Today Shenzhen is about six million and Zhuhai over a million.
The other three cities have a longer history. Guangzhou is thousands of years old. Macau goes back to the 16th century, Hong Kong to the 19th. Both of those were built largely to trade with Guangzhou.
The traveller on a really tight budget should get out of this area altogether and seek the real bargains in China's hinterland.
The cost-no-object traveller can stay in Hong Kong, or go to up-market places in other cities, and have a wonderful time either way.
As a general rule, both Shenzhen and Macau are cheaper than Hong Kong.
Zhuhai is cheaper than any of the above. Consider doing most of your shopping there.
This misses Shenzhen, but that may not be a large loss. You can easily include it if you like.
If you have less time, perhaps just take the ferry across to Macau and then back to Hong Kong.
Interesting places reasonably nearby (under 12 hours by bus, or a very quick flight).


Reading and share top 15 famous quotes and sayings about Famous Ufos by famous authors and people.
Browse top 15 famous quotes and sayings about Famous Ufos by most favorite authors.
1. "Contrary to the current presumption, if there is any man who has no right to solitude, it is the artist. Art cannot be a monologue. When the most solitary and least famous artist appeals to posterity, he is merely reaffirming his fundamental vocation. Considering a dialogue with deaf or inattentive contemporaries to be impossible, he appeals to a more far-reaching dialogue with the generations to come. But in order to speak about all and to all, one has to speak of what all know and of the reality common to us all. The sea, rains, necessity, desire, the struggle against death—these are the things that unite us all. We resemble one another in what we see together, in what we suffer together. Dreams change from individual to individual, but the reality of the world is common to us all."
2. "I earned my famous name."
3. "I see the last two millennia as laid out in columns, like a reverse ledger sheet. It's as if I'm standing at the top of the twenty-first century looking downwards to 2000. Future centuries float as a gauzy sheet stretching over to the left. I also see people, architecture and events laid out chronologically in the columns. When I think of the year 1805, I see Trafalgar, women in the clothes of that era, famous people who lived then, the building, etc. The sixth to tenth centuries are very green, the Middle Ages are dark with vibrant splashes of red and blue and the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries are brown with rich, lush colours in the furniture and clothing."
4. "It was pretty frightening because as we all know, when large, famous groups breakup, a lot of the members don't survive in solo careers."
5. "Blindness to larger contexts is a constitutional defect of human thinking imposed by the painful necessity of being able to concentrate on only one thing at a time. We forget as we virtuously concentrate on that one thing that hundreds of other things are going on at the same time and on every side of us, things that are just as important as the object of our study and that are all interconnected in ways that we cannot even guess. Sad to say, our picture of the world to the degree to which it has that neatness, precision, and finality so coveted by scholarship is a false one.I once studied with a famous professor who declared that he deliberately avoided the study of any literature east of Greece lest the new vision destroy the architectonic perfection of his own celebrated construction of the Greek mind. His picture of that mind was immensely impressive but, I strongly suspect, completely misleading."
6. "A band should be more famous than an individual, because all else being equal, the band has more mothers and fathers to lend support."
7. "But maybe her marriage wasn't a Lexus. Maybe it was a Pinto--one of those cars famous for blowing up when rear-ended. As she waited for the mechanics to fix her car, she walked out the back door to the wrecking yard and through the aisles of totaled cars and pickups, vehicles that other people had decided weren't worth fixing. She felt just like them. She felt like that Buick with the driver's-side door so crushed that the driver was undoubtedly hurt, but from the look of the other side, the passenger likely skated through unscathed. She felt like the Saturn with the shattered windshield through which no one could see what lay ahead. It looked as if it had been sandwiched in a multicar pileup. Jill knew exactly how it felt to crash into one thing and then get smashed from behind. She studied that Saturn and wondered whether it would have been salvageable if it had only been rear-ended instead of sandwiched, and she wondered if the same was true about her marriage."
8. "At last, in 1611, was made, under the auspices of King James, the famous King James version; and this is the great literary monument of the English language."
9. "Each of us, famous or infamous, is a role model for somebody, and if we aren't, we should behave as though we are -- cheerful, kind, loving, courteous. Because you can be sure someone is watching and taking deliberate and diligent notes."
10. "A monarch butterfly has top brand recognition, an excellent recall quotient, and highly favorable demographics. Associate your candidate with famous lepidoptera, and use these filmed spots early and often."
11. "In a lot of aspects it's cooler that we don't have a lot of really overly famous people in the band."
12. "Being famous as a writer is like being famous in a village. It's not really any very heady fame."
13. "It had become clear to me that the lives of the rich and famous were not so differ from the lies of the Comanches: you did what you pleased and answered to no one."
14. "One of the many troubles of growing older is that it gets progressively harder to find a famous historical figure who hadn't yet amounted to anything by the time he was your age."
15. "I believe some people in this business suffer from fame because they behave in a famous fashion."
Clear your mind of such thoughts. They cannot be answered and will make you no happier."

Q: How use AES/ECB/PKCS7Padding algorithm in Windows Phone 7? I am new in windows phone development. How can I use AES/ECB/PKCS7Padding algorithm in WP7 ?.
While googled I saw many suggested about Bouncy Castle. But I did not clearly understood about this Bouncy Castle. Is this an algorithm ?.
I need to encrypt/decrypt password for sending to server. In all other phone (Android, iPhone, Blackberry), we use AES/ECB/PKCS7Padding algorithm for this. They all give same ecrypted/decrypt result for our input. But in windows phone I used AesManaged Class for the encryption. But it gives different encrypted result. In the msdn documentation (MSDN documentation) about AESManaged class they said "The cipher mode is always CBC, and the padding mode is always PKCS7". I think maybe thats why here I am getting different encrypted result comparing to other phones.
Is that the problem here ?. If its, then how can I use AES/ECB/PKCS7Padding algorithm in WP7 ?
I dont see any property for setting the cipher mode in AesManaged class.
Thanks.

A: If you want to use AES/ECB/PKCS7Padding in Windows Phone, you should use Bouncy Castle library.
This library wasn't made exactly for Windows Phone, and you can't use the dll from Bouncy Castle site. Instead, you should download the WP7-ported library from here. (two links at the bottom of the article)
Now, you can use Org.BouncyCastle.Crypto.IBufferedCipher type.
cipher = CipherUtilities.GetCipher("AES/ECB/PKCS7"); // or PKCS7PADDING, no matter
cipher.Init(false, new KeyParameter(key)); // or something else

Then you should work with this variable.
And yes,

"The cipher mode is always CBC, and the padding mode is always PKCS7"

that's why you are getting wrong result.


Is a new subscriber, I am very satisfied with the magazine. However, the article, "The Brazilian Midair" (January 2007), contains one statement I consider arguable. Brazilian ATC's pre-takeoff clearance to the Legacy is quoted as, "N600XL, Clear, 370, Manaus," followed by the statement that "Any pilot receiving this clearance while still on the ground would have been justified in believing their flight had been cleared to climb and maintain FL370 all the way to its destination." That's where I disagree.

Team Penske IndyCar Series Race Report – Long Beach
Posted by Steve Wittich on Monday, April 15th 2019
Team Penske IndyCar Series Race Report
Track: Streets of Long Beach
Race: Grand Prix of Long Beach
No. 2 Hitachi Dallara/Chevrolet – Josef Newgarden
Start: 4th
Finish: 2nd
Status: Running
Laps Completed: 85/85
Laps Led: 2
Points Position: 1st (+28 pts)
Josef Newgarden and the No. 2 Hitachi Dallara/Chevrolet team continued their upward momentum in the 2019 IndyCar series season after continuing their steak of top-five finishes with a second-place finish at Long Beach – landing him on the podium for the third time this season.
In this two pit stop race, Newgarden was first called to the pits by race strategist Tim Cindric on lap 29 where he picked up fuel and four worn primary tires – after starting the event on alternate tires. This strategy allowed him to move from his starting position of fourth to the second spot where he would remain for the rest of the event.
On lap 58, the No. 2 Hitachi Dallara/Chevrolet returned to the pits for a final time to receive worn primaries once again and fuel.
Newgarden retains the IndyCar Series championship points lead after the first four events ahead of the next closest challenger, Alexander Rossi, by 28 points.
Quote: "Yeah, we didn't have anything for him [Alexander Rossi] today. We tried our best to make some progress and the guys did a great job. We did have a good strategy, like you said; we leap-frogged Will (Power) and (Scott) Dixon. And then, I was just wondering where everyone was at. I was wondering if Rossi was good on fuel and I was giving it my all. That's about all I had today. So yeah, a little shy. It's always tough. It's good to have second. This is a good day. We're staying inside the top 3, which is positive. It gets old after a while. You want to win more races. So, it was a great day, but a little short is always disappointing. So, we'll come back to the next one. Team Chevy did a great job and gave us what we needed. The Hitachi car felt good. Just a little short."
No. 12 Verizon Dallara/Chevrolet – Will Power
Start: 3rd
Finish: 7th
Points Position: 7th (-73 pts)
Will Power and the No. 12 Verizon Dallara/Chevrolet team began Sunday's race at Long Beach, in the third position – his third top-three start of the 2019 NTT Data IndyCar Series season.
The Australian driver assumed the lead on lap 27 when eventual race winner, Alexander Rossi, and Scott Dixon made their first pit stops of the day.
Power pitted one lap later and used his strong road-racing skills to keep Dixon behind him as he exited pit road to secure the third position.
Unfortunately, the No. 12 Verizon Dallara/Chevrolet team's day went south after Power suffered an over-boost issue on the exit of the hairpin turn at lap 34. He was forced to bail out of his ensuing entry into Turn 1, resulting in him dropping to the eighth position in the running order.
The race continued under the green flag for the remainder of the event and Power was only able to drive up to the seventh position before the checkered flag.
The next race on the 2019 IndyCar Series calendar is the INDYCAR Grand Prix on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) road course. Power is a three-time winner of the May 11 event that opens up the month of May at IMS.
Quote: "Yeah, I guess it's my mistake for going down there. I kind of went in the marbles. Probably went to the wrong side to defend from (Scott) Dixon; but yeah, yeah, yeah. That was it, man. It was probably a podium finish there, but threw it away, unfortunately. I was debating whether to make the corner and I thought nah, it's better to be 7th than in the tires. I was close. I may have made it, but I didn't want to take the risk. We needed to finish ahead of all the guys that finished ahead of us, but once again, a pretty big hole the first four races of the season. A bit frustrating considering how fast we've been at some of these tracks. Even today, we were super good in the race. Just circumstance. I'm sure we'll be quick in May. I've been quick everywhere. Chevy has a great engine there at the 500 so we're looking to really capitalize and try and turn the season around."
No. 22 DXC Technology Dallara/Chevrolet – Simon Pagenaud
Points Position: 11th (-79 pts)
Simon Pagenaud and the No. 22 DXC Technology Dallara/Chevrolet began the IndyCar Series race at Long Beach in the fifth position – his highest starting position yet this season. By driving aggressive and all of the right strategy calls, Pagenaud finished in the top-10 for the third time this season.
With the team's strategy to make this just a two pit stop race, race strategist for the No. 22 DXC Technology Chevrolet, Kyle Moyer, called Pagenaud to the pits on lap 28 for primary tires and fuel in hopes of remaining consistent with their position on the track.
Pagenaud pitted for the second and final time on lap 56 for worn alternate tires allowing him to remain in the sixth position until the conclusion of the race.
Simon Pagenaud and the No. 22 DXC Technology Chevrolet were able to move up one position in 2019 IndyCar Series championship points into the 11th spot. The team is excited to head to the series' next event, the INDYCAR Grand Prix, where they are former winners.
Quote: "Yeah, it was a solid day. I think that was the best we could have done today. I think we did everything we were supposed to do in our DXC Technology Chevy. Execution was there. We just lacked a little bit of pace overall. So, we've got to keep working on it. That's all you can do. (Alexander) Rossi (race winner) had a great race. I think (Josef) Newgarden did a fantastic job and putting a Penske car up there is great. We've just got to keep working. I'm really excited about the Indy Grand Prix coming up. I'm looking forward to the month of May."

A friendly, faith charged community of believers in action, Apostolic Bible Church of Meridian is a place that you will be challenged with relevant preaching & charged with the power of the Holy Ghost!
Build meaningful relationships with God and others at ABC Meridian.
Every person, no matter their race, culture or social status, has been given a promise of everlasting life, through new birth into the kingdom of God; our mission is to see that promise realized!
Begin a journey today that will have an everlasting impact on you and your family.
Exciting and Heartfelt Worship is modeled throughout the pages of the bible, and is still alive and well among the faith community at ABC Meridian. We think you'll love what you feel!
Experience the life changing power of a deep surrender in praise and worship.
Hi, and thanks for taking a scroll around Meridian ABC. We look forward to the opportunity to meet you in person. We invite you to join us this week for a life changing church experience!
What an eye opening revelation and strength it has been to our family to know and seek God in the power of the Apostolic Message!
God has been so good to us. His mercy truly is new every day. We can't wait to see who He will work a miracle in next, it could be you!
Everyday I am more convinced that I should've started this incredible journey sooner. I could never go back to the way it was.
Balancing the many demands of life with a growing family in today's world would be impossible without our Faith and Church Family.
His entire life was spent reaching, teaching and demonstrating that the supernatural really can break in on the natural, and that things from above really do have power over things from below. Most of all He wanted His listeners to know that they were truly created to live a life of promise.
Just as they did in that era, the Words and Spirit of Jesus continue to radically change the lives of people today that are bold enough to take Him at His Word.
They say that believing is easy, but the truth is, when it is you with cancer or it is your family that is broken or it is your mind that is imprisoning you, believing for true change can be the most difficult thing to do.
That is why it is our mission to reach, teach and demonstrate the overcoming power of Jesus Christ just as it is exampled to us in the bible. As an Apostolic Pentecostal body of believers, we come expecting miracles, signs and wonders and are so glad to report that they are still in full effect today. If it happened back then, we say come experience it today!
It has been said, you are what you eat… and while we know that we don't literally turn into the donuts or the carrot that we are feeding ourselves, the point stands true as to the direction that we are facing when it comes to our natural health.
At ABC we believe that the same is true spiritually, we are what we worship. And again, that is not to say that we become God, but it is to say that the direction of our lives is absolutely determined by who/why/how and when we worship.
None other than Jesus Christ.
Speaking of Himself, He tells us in Revelation 1:8, I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
As His creation, we were made to glorify Him.
Psalms 148:5 says, Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. It also helps when we realize that without Him we can do nothing, John 15:5.
Biblical worship is exampled in spirit & in truth.
John 4:23 says, But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
All the time, especially when we join together.

THE OCEAN AEOLIAN reviews
"Aeolian" is the 2nd full-length studio album by German sludge/post metal/hardcore act The Ocean (sometimes referred to as The Ocean Collective). The album was released through Metal Blade Records in November 2005. "Aeolian" is the second part of a two album project that started with "Fluxion (2004)". As far as I understand the tracks for the two albums were written and recorded during the same sessions, but the band (or the label?) decided to release the most atmospheric and orchestral material on "Fluxion" and the more aggressive and direct material on "Aeolian".
...it´s definitely an interesting approach and to my ears "Fluxion" started the project pretty successfully. "Aeolian" is definitely the harder edged ugly monster sibling. The level of aggression and the amount of chugging riffs are much higher on "Aeolian" than the case was on "Fluxion", and "Aeolian" is not at all as atmospheric or as sophisticated as "Fluxion" either (although not completely devoid of atmospheric moments). We´re still dealing with fairly technical playing and complex compositions, but the emphasis is on aggression and heavy riffing. The vocals are predominantly raw and shouting type sludge/hardcore vocals. There are as many as 6 different vocalists who contribute to the album, so the vocal style also changes from deep semi-growling, to harsh hardcore screaming, to aggressive barking.
While all material on the 10 track, 55:32 minutes long album is well written and performed, there is a slight identity crisis heard throughout the album, and it´s like The Ocean can´t decide if they want to play metal or hardcore (there are several predominantly hardcore oriented tracks on the album). There´s even a wiff of metalcore/melodic death metal featured at one point, so it´s not a stylistically consistent release. Wether that´s a weakness or a strength is up for discussion, but personally I found the band´s adventurous approach to musical styles relatively intriguing, albeit not always equally successful. Highlights include "The City in the Sea" and "Inertia", which are the two tracks that bookends the album. Especially the latter is a great track, but all material on the album is of a good quality.
"Aeolian" features a well sounding and powerful production, which suits the material well and the musicianship is on a high level on all posts. So upon conclusion "Aeolian" is through and through a high quality release. Compared to it´s sister release "Fluxion", "Aeolian" is slightly less interesting though, but a 3.5 - 4 star (75%) rating is still deserved.

Hunter laptop repairman: FBI agent threatened me to hush up
'It is our experience that nothing ever happens to people that don't talk'

Hunter Biden (ABC News video screenshot)
Already, it seems the FBI would like evidence that the president of the United States is profiting from a global family business granting Chinese Communist Party firms and Russian oligarchs access to the White House to just go away.
Whistleblowers, it recently was revealed, allege FBI officials tried to quash an investigation of the laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden at a Delaware repair shop. And the shop owner, John Paul Mac Isaac, says he gave a copy of the contents of the laptop to Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani eight months after handing it over to the FBI because it appeared that nothing was being done about it.
Now, in a new book, Isaac says one of the FBI agents who came to pick up the laptop in December 2019 threatened him to stay silent.
In "American Injustice: My Battle to Expose the Truth," Isaac writes that the agents came with a subpoena two months after he had volunteered to hand over the computer, reports the New York Post's Miranda Devine, who broke the blockbuster stories about the laptop's contents just weeks before the November 2020 election.

Isaac says the alleged threat came after he jokingly told the agents, "Hey, lads, I'll remember to change your names when I write the book."
"Agent Wilson kept walking but Agent DeMeo paused and turned to face me," he writes.
The agent, according to Isaac, then told him: "It is our experience that nothing ever happens to people that don't talk about these things."
After the encounter, the shop owner pondered: "Was I being paranoid, or had what the agent just told me been a direct threat, or at best a thinly veiled one?"
Issac says he had to shut down his business after being harassed when his private information was leaked.
In May, he filed a multimillion-dollar defamation suit against Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and media outlets such as CNN, the Daily Beast and Politico, charging they falsely accused him of peddling Russian disinformation.
