A Playlist for The Now Dark Sky, Setting Us All on Fire
Note: The Now Dark Sky, Setting Us All on Fire playlist can be heard here (on Apple Music) and here (on Spotify).
My parents recently sent me a warehouse worth's of VHS tapes from my childhood home—a bulky mix of home movies, high school events, and choppy collections of 120 Minutes clips culled from hours of attentive viewing. In those tapes, there were some crystal-clear views of our old house, and my room, which, in retrospect, was something of a folk-art shrine to my favorite music. There are old 45s propped up on shelves, concert tickets in tiny frames, posters and magazine clippings covering most of the walls—REM mingles with the Led Zeppelin, Joan Jett leans up against The Replacements, Prince stands next to Patti Smith. In the nook near the front window, cases of cassettes climb from the ground to the ceiling—the classic plastic rectangle-collage of a music-loving kid in the 80s.
Next to that, though, was the real treasure—milk crates stocked with true, old school, vinyl records. A mix of hand-me-downs and purchases from local flea markets, their artwork would stare at me as I filed through, looking for just the right album to play. Bruce Springsteen and Clarence Clemons leaned on each other and smiled up from the cardboard; the first-pressing Velvet Underground record tempted you to peel the banana back; and Bob Dylan stared straight through you, daring you to decipher the stream of words on the back of his records. And those streams of words, printed across the back of records like Highway 61 Revisited, led me to poetry, and music has been a part of the process ever since.
With the songs echoing through my suburban room, I would hover over the strange poetry on the back covers. On classics like Bringing It All Back Home say, there were rambling, seemingly meaningless word parades on the back of his records—the sort of prose poetry that certainly never won over any literary scholars (it's one of the few areas of his career that does not garner effusive praise—but I am happy to report that, years later, Denis Johnson discussed discovering poetry through these albums, as well), a sort of confetti of phrases and names that rolls on with abandon. There are no book-length analyses of those back covers like there are about "Like a Rolling Stone," but for me, they were a gateway to poetry. Never a talented musician, I couldn't write songs, but I began writing my versions (read: knockoffs) of these sorts of poems (I have volumes of notebooks of this mortifying work). I couldn't stop, and I didn't want to.
And, importantly, in that excitement, I began seeking out the poets that inspired him. In one set of notes, he mentions Allen Ginsberg, so I pulled the string, and then wound up reading the entirety of the Beats, and then Blake, and then Rimbaud, and then venturing into more contemporary writers—and once that started, the entirety of poetry was exciting to me.
So, from the very start, music has been ingrained in my writing, as a spark, sometimes as a guide, sometimes as a role model, sometimes even as an editor. It's not surprising, seeing the direct line from those records, that it would be part of it all. People like Dylan and Patti Smith have fingerprints on what I write now, as do more current musicians like Kendrick Lamar and Waxahatchee. The two worlds, of poetry and music, are always connected. I'm excited that Superstition Review has asked me to share a playlist of songs that connect to my new collection, as so many helped shape the book.
I rarely listen to music as I write, but it serves three important roles during the process. There is the "North Star" approach, where I hear a particular song and something about it pushes me forward, toward its tone, or themes, or lyrics. I live with it for weeks, playing it on repeat, until I write, gaining momentum from the song. Then, there is the "jukebox"—a song comes on, out of the blue, shakes up my vision and I'm inspired to write by it. And, finally, particularly with finalizing a manuscript, there is the "pinball machine"—in crafting the order and focus of a book, it's as if songs are the bumpers in a pinball machine, helping me see connections and themes that exist in the poems, jolting them toward each other as the ball rolls along the wood surface.
Of course, in writing this, I know that none of this is unique—we all have stories about how music connects to our lives, whether that be as artists or just in our everyday experiences. There have even been great poetry collections rooted in music in every sense of the word (two of my early favorite books, Michael Harper's Dear John, Dear Coltrane and David Wojahn's Mystery Train, for example). Here, in this piece, I can just speak to my experience, naturally, and how it shaped the poems in the new book. Music led me to poetry when I was younger; now, older, it helps inspire and shape it.
In writing this new book, certain songs were clearly "North Stars," those pieces that captured a tone or theme I was aiming for in the collection. I could listen to them and know this is what I'm after. I knew the landscapes I was seeing in my head were reflected in "Dark Eyes"; I knew some of the topics I wanted to explore were in "XXX"; and I knew some of the tone I wanted to evoke was in "Annie Christian." At other times, a song would appear on the "jukebox" (an iPhone is much less romantic than a jukebox) and either alter my goals, or fine tune them. When Kamasi Washington released "Fists of Fury," it hit me like a bolt, not only because I had been anxiously awaiting his new album, but because of the themes and ideas in it—which immediately sparked more writing. When I heard Waxahatchee for the first time, a local radio station played "Peace & Quiet." Hearing that voice cut through the car, I literally pulled over, purchased the album on iTunes (again, not as romantic as running to the record store, I know), and listened to it three times in row before heading home to write.
And finally, when piecing the manuscript together into sections, into an order, and into (what I hope) is a cohesive whole, many of these songs helped serve as posts to guide them into place. I knew, thematically, section 2 of the book was going to house both the Jane's Addiction and Jackie Shane songs, two of the more vulnerable, romantic pieces, and that helped guide the formatting. Section 3 seemed to call for Leonard Cohen's voice, and everything fell in place from there.
Of course, this is all a lengthy way to say I love music, and it inspires poetry. I bet most writers reading this will say the same thing. But the chance to express that sentiment, and share how it affected this new book—particularly since there were very specific songs that did—is too enjoyable to pass up. And perhaps, if nothing else, someone else might enjoy the songs that follow, and maybe even listen in conjunction with the book.
All of this is to say that creating a playlist for this new book was something I had been doing for the entirety of writing it, so it was a pleasure to put it together in some sort of "final" version to share with the published collection. As mentioned above, the playlist can be found here (on Apple Music) and here (on Spotify) for anyone who might want to listen along now, or with the book when it comes out in June.
Here are a few words about each track, as they relate to the collection. I've forced myself to keep it to two sentences per song, as my enthusiasm for this music could easily lead me down (even longer), rambling, discussion.
1. Bettye Lavette, "Ain't Talkin'." An overture for the book, the opening credits theme as the poems start. Lavette's voice, combined with these lyrics, captures the tone I aimed for in these poems.
2. Kamasi Washington, "Fists of Fury." Love is always the goal, but love and resistance are not mutually exclusive. There are times for righteous anger.
3. Parquet Courts, "Violence." Whereas Washington uses swirling jazz to encircle the wrongs of the world, Parquet Courts are more direct here.
4. Talking Heads, "The Big Country." Flying over the country, watching the news in a seat-back, and turning away from the screen to look down on the huge grids of land and puzzle-piece suburbs, this is always the song that floats in and out of the air vents.
5. Rhianna (feat. Calvin Harris), "We Found Love." In the very earliest stages of writing this book, we were living in New Orleans, and this song had just been released. It was almost a joke how often it was played throughout the city—even in jazz clubs between sets—and it sunk into my system, with "we fell in love in a hopeless place" a working epigraph for the collection for a while.
6. Kendrick Lamar (feat. U2), "XXX." He seems to get better and better, and while all of his albums have inspired writing, this song kept reappearing and pushing and guiding. In three short sections of one song, there are countless quote-worthy lines, but "the great American flag is wrapped and dragged with explosives" might be the best.
7. Jane's Addiction, "I Would for You." Slow dancing at the end of the world while the ground falls away in all directions.
8. Jackie Shane, "Cruel Cruel World." Shane received some well-earned praise near the end of her life, and it is a gift to have her work easily available now. This piece goes hand-in-hand with the previous one—the world may be cruel, but hope is worth it.
9. Waxahatchee, "Peace & Quiet." Even more than they lyrics here (although she is an incredible lyricist), the first time I heard Katie Crutchfield's voice, it was like a note from a frequency I didn't even realize I was tuned to, and I wanted to write poems in that key.
10. Frank Ocean, "Solo." The summer this album came out, I would drive around at night listening to it on repeat, and it seemed like the tires turned to fog while the car floated through the neighborhoods. That tone, and the lyrics in the chorus here ("it's Hell on Earth and the city's on fire . . . there's a bull and a matador dueling in the sky") seeped into my writing for weeks.
11. Leonard Cohen, "You Want It Darker." Leonard Cohen is just about the only person who could pull off this song, but I went back to it frequently as license to dive into dark waves.
12. The Veils, "Axolotl."Few pieces of art affected me over the past few years as much as David Lynch's return to "Twin Peaks," which aired two years ago now. This song, which was featured in one of the most haunting scenes in the series, captured what I was after in the poems, and pushed them further.
13. Prince, "Annie Christian." It may be hard to believe, but Prince is actually underrated in some regards, as in his skill to capture anxiety and chaos. The swirling keyboards and staccato guitar skipping around then-current end-times events were a reference point as I worked on the book.
14. Jeff Tweedy, "Some Birds."Superstition Review editor Trish Murphy actually blurbed the new book, saying that it works to build an "alternate universe designed to help us better understand our real one" and there are, indeed, at least a few twins from other worlds staring back at us in there. In this song, tonally a breath of fresh air in the playlist, one of those twins appear.
15. Patti Smith, "Pissing in a River." If there's an artist more willing to put her heart and mind out there against all risks, I haven't seen or heard them. I aspire to be as fearless as her voice and heart-on-sleeve passion that builds through this song.
16. REM, "Every Day is Yours to Win." With all of the darkness in the book, I wanted to end with a more delicate voice, with at least a ribbon of light, in the very last poem. The peace in this song, and (literal) repetition of the last lines are an earnest attempt to do so, even if it is futile.
17. Bob Dylan, "Dark Eyes." The bookend to the very first song, this was always the piece of music I heard in my head while putting the book together. The images, the tone, the lyrics—it was a North Star, and is the song I hear when I close the book at its conclusion.
There is one final way that music influences writing, and it is less specific than being sparked by a particular line of a song, or influenced by the melody and rhythm. Sometimes, as with all art, the simple act of being exposed to someone else's creativity is enough to move us to action—the earnest inspiration of someone else's work. And by listening, and sensing their passion, it puts momentum into our own work. We can't listen without wanting to create as well.
With this new book, I had a version of the manuscript for a solid year or two that I thought was done. But it wasn't. If I was being honest with myself (it took a while), about a quarter of the poems needed to go, and be flushed out with new pieces. That was a tough pill to swallow, but it was obvious to me—I just didn't know where to begin.
At the very start of last summer, we were driving through Northern Arizona, and up through Nevada, along route 93, running parallel to the Colorado River and alongside the White Hills area. After stopping for gas at one of the rare stations, I plugged my phone into the audio output, and hit shuffle. Pharaoh Sanders came on, and the opening sounds of "The Creator Has a Masterplan," from Karma, played. We pulled onto the road, his saxophone lifted off, the chiming bells echoed out, and as we curved through the desert. The car was flying.
If you've never heard this song before, it's worth a listen, and if you have, it's worth a second. All 32 minutes and 47 seconds of it. When it started that afternoon, the sun had just started to go down, and by the end of it, we were driving in the dim light of dusk.
When we ultimately got back to California, I started writing, and I didn't stop until the book was done.

Guest Post, Robert Krut: Heroes Are Dead; Long Live Heroes
April 13, 2017 April 14, 2017 Robert Krut
I have a handwritten postcard from Allen Ginsberg. And not some random handwritten postcard I discovered in an antique desk drawer at a flea market, or bought online somewhere. It is handwritten to me. It is, needless to say, one of my most prized possessions. As you might imagine, it is framed and hanging within view of the computer I am typing on at this very moment.
Ginsberg was my first big literary hero—the person I read obsessively, rhapsodized about to others—I carried around my copy of his glorious red-covered Collected Poems everywhere I went. I drove my high school English teacher crazy by insisting I share "America" with the class, "go fuck yourself" and all. I wanted to write like him, and if I am honest with myself, I wanted to be him—free, wild-bearded, hand to the sky and capturing the lightning of electric lines right to the page.
So, I wrote him a letter. Certain I was the first teenager to ever write him and tell him how much his poems meant to me, and how my high school just "didn't get it" (looking back now, my teacher was more than accommodating of my obsession), I told him how I was also from New Jersey and wanted to be a poet. Much to my surprise, a few weeks later, a postcard was sitting on the kitchen table when I got home (my Mom was smiling when she said "well, you got a postcard today…"). In a cruel twist of fate, he even suggested I come to a reading in the city and introduce myself—but the card arrived the day after the reading (cursed by slow mail over the December holidays). But I had my postcard. My handwritten postcard from my hero. And that was more than enough.
Naturally, in the coming years, I discovered many literary heroes that led me to want to write, each one stepping into the hero role: Raymond Carver, Flannery O'Connor, Denis Johnson, Michael Burkard. . . they all became not only writers I admired, but those that lit fires, guided my own work (often leading to not-so-infrequent unintended homages). With each new hero, the previous faded a bit into the background–needless to say, when my Carver obsession began, my attempts at poems were stripped-down affairs as opposed to the expansive, no-thought-should-be-discarded Ginsbergian approach. Denis Johnson, of course, married those two approaches well, in a sort of tough visionary literature–his poem "The Veil" has remained on my office wall for twenty years. I suppose this sort of admiration is human nature.
Ultimately, the sort of "hero worship" I had early on for Ginsberg was somewhat similar to that of other, earlier incarnations of fandom: my bedroom as a little kid was plastered with posters of Reggie Jackson and Catfish Hunter; my early teenage years saw U2 and REM on those same walls. Ultimately, they made room for Bob Dylan memorabilia; Dylan directly pointed me to Ginsberg, who took up the hero mantle.
When you admire someone so completely, of course, it is only natural to see them not only replaced, but also drift a bit back. At times, we even have to discard them to move past their (encouraging, sparkling) grip. For me, by the end of my undergraduate years, I would say things like "I'll always love Ginsberg, but…" completing that sentence with phrases like "his Collected Poems could have been half as long" (my precious red book!), or "I'm realizing I can go straight to the source–Whitman!" As time went on though, I kept a place for my hero in my heart–I had my list of lingering poems that still knocked me out, taught him periodically over the years (a visionary literature class here, a political poetry unit there, etc.), even thrilled at going to City Lights Books in San Francisco. But it was never truly quite the same as those first few years in the rush of discovering his work.
Now, though, after a recent event, I realized that my love for Ginsberg was never only about the cult of personality or some cartoon of his "character." There was–is–real magic in his work, so it was only a matter of time that I would revisit my full force love of his poetry, and role as a poet. In going back to him after all these years, I can appreciate him on a deeper level–embracing what I love, acknowledging any limitations, and feeling the rush of connecting with poetry for the first time again. It's a great feeling–I encourage all readers to go back to their first heroes and see if it happens for them, too.
My renewed fervor grew out of the most common of occurrences for those of us who write poems–a simple conversation where someone asks "who is your favorite poet?" Or, similarly, but with a bit more breathing room: "who are your favorite poets?" It's always nice when someone asks this at a party–particularly when you're the only one there who may write (or publicly acknowledge writing) poems, as you see someone taking an interest in poetry–so often I am pleased to see a real interest out in the "non-poetry" and/or "non-academic" worlds about poems.
That being said, I have also learned over the years that, in those moments, breaking out truly contemporary, or even slightly obscure older, poets leads to blank stares–I have killed many a conversation over the years extolling the virtues of names that didn't register in the conversation partner. So, typically now I mention someone relatively well-known that I do love, but that will bridge the discussion. Typically a response of "well, it all starts with Whitman and Dickinson" is a solid one, and allows for an engaging conversation. Other names that have worked well in these moments include Langston Hughes, William Carlos Williams, and Elizabeth Bishop (for reference, "One Art" and "The Moose" are very popular; "The Man-Moth" tends to unfortunately be a deal breaker). It should be pointed out, though that mentioning these "classic names" provides a perfect chance to share newer ones, as common ground has been established. Last month I was at a bar where someone asked about poets and I followed up a Whitman reference by saying "and if you want to read some great contemporary work, go find Danez Smith." Later in the night, that same person came back to me and asked me to repeat the name so he could enter it into his phone for future reference.
But back to Ginsberg–at a recent party, sensing that my conversation partner might have loved the Beats back in the day, I mentioned my old hero. To my shock, this was not met with a positive response–the person, laughing in a good natured way, let me know "Oh no! I can't stand Ginsberg!" I was surprised at how quickly I snapped back into being that teenager again, with my Ginsberg love back front and center. The good thing, though, as I now realize, is that my hero worship had been replaced with admiration–and in defending his legacy, I could feel myself reconnected with him, and what excites me about poetry, all over again.
I made my case. In a world where everyone can be so cynical, isn't it refreshing to have his poems out there, in all of their rambling, heart-on-sleeve glory? In a time when it is so necessary, isn't it exhilarating to read poems facing capital-A America straight on? What lover of poetry didn't want to break out "America" on November 9, 2016? And have you read "Supermarket in California" recently? It feels fresh and heartbreaking all over again–only now Ginsberg is the one we meet in the grocery store instead of Whitman.
And, if the poetry/politics intersection doesn't do it for you, there is the personal and spiritual work. The teenage version of me read "To Aunt Rose" and loved it. But as we all get older, and lose people we love, good luck reading it, with its detailed and loving portrait, and not only marveling at its poetry but also tearing up at the emotions. Additionally, the spirituality that runs through so much of the work, with its mix of Judaism and Buddhism, takes us out of the rough observations of the political work and places American life on a different plane–try listening to his reading of "Wichita Vortex Sutra" with Phillip Glass and not feeling like you are floating five feet above the ground.
All of this came out though that party conversation, and I was back in, full force. In doing so, I reconnected with something I loved about poetry from when I first started writing. That night I went home and wrote, and I did the next day, too.
We put our heroes away for a bit for a reason, and we certainly can't sacrifice what is new in poetry to stay safe in our comfort zones–we would become boring if that happened. At the right time, though, it is worth revisiting them once again, with the deeper understanding that comes from time as well as the larger world of literature. We see them with added depth, but lit by the spark that first excited us about writing. In the end, it leaves us admiring them as writers, not heroes. And I say that as I look up at Allen Ginsberg's handwriting from 1990 on my wall.

Guest Blog Post, Robert Krut: Wherever, Whenever
October 5, 2013 November 11, 2013 Robert Krut
With the school year just starting up, I have new students asking about creating good writing schedules, patterns, and habits. As always, I recommend having a solid daily (or at least "near daily") routine to get work done, whether that work means starting something new, tinkering with an existing piece, or revising to a final draft. That schedule is different for different people–when I was younger, it was always late at night. Now, I do this sort of work first thing in the morning. Of course, it all starts with a cup of coffee (importantly, though, I don't allow myself a second cup until I've gotten some work done–I still hear Ron Carlson's voice from graduate school saying that morning coffee can be a crutch to take you away from writing, so that second cup is reserved until after some work is done). Having a schedule like this, even if you don't always follow it exactly, is incredibly helpful. I can always tell when I've been good about keeping to it, as opposed to slacking, based on the amount of pieces I've got done.
In addition to having that sort of daily schedule, though, I encourage them to write wherever the possibility arises, and (forgive me for using this phrase) whenever inspiration strikes. I'm not talking about setting a laptop up in a coffee shop to write while spacing out to the pastries case–I mean taking a second, wherever you are, to jot down images, ideas, phrases, words that jump out–this may be because you've actually seen something worth remembering, or it may just be that a particular turn of phrase is stuck in your head for some unknown reason. Get it down. After many times of thinking to myself, "oh, I'll remember that later"–and then, of course, not–I've tried to be much better about that.
This is an approach I've always known to be helpful, but really stepped up my use of it over the past few years. At least half of the poems in my new book started "on the scene," so to speak, and then were finished during my regular, home-based writing schedule. Looking through the table of contents, I can easily point to the places where each started, even if it was just a one-line image: the corner of 6th and Broadway in Downtown LA, the shoreline in La Conchita, a gas station in Tarzana, awaiting jury duty in a municipal building, outside any number of music venues (Largo, El Cid, Silverlake Lounge all come to mind)–the list goes on. One of my favorite of these memories, though, had me piecing together cryptic text messages on a very bright California morning.
The previous evening, I had gone with a group of friends to a glittery, velvet-rope-having, line-down-the-block dance club in Hollywood–not the sort of place I frequent, admittedly. The Los Angeles I love and live in is much more Big Lebowski than TMZ, but I also enjoy trying just about anything, so I went along, strolling into a club bordered by a perimeter of paparazzi. Needless to say, I felt a little out of place walking past the line of people dressed as if they were auditioning for a reboot of Club MTV (a reference that shows my age, but makes sense considering that, a week later, an MTV personality was DJing in this very club). Thanks to some good planning, and what I suspect was string pulling, by my friends, though, we walked past the crowds and right to our table on the edge of the dance floor.
I am, to be honest, not exactly one to walk into a dance club and immediately break out killer moves (although, I do always fantasize about reenacting the classic dance scene from Airplane in this sort of setting), so after getting a drink and swaying tastefully around my friends for a while, I removed myself from the actual dance floor. Walking up to the rise, near the DJ, I watched the crowd for a while. Then, moved back down and out to the smoking deck to get away from the crowd for a bit. Then, back to our table to get another drink, then back to the rise, and so on and so forth. As the night went on–and it went on a while–I got over myself and wound up back in the mass of people on the dance floor, and everything just moved on from there. Importantly, during all of this, I sent myself two text messages.
In the midst of the evening, I had two of those "write this now" moments, and didn't want to forget them. They weren't grand reveals of entire poems, but were just images/ideas that jumped out: one from standing on the second level looking at the crowd, and one from leaning on the outdoor patio and seeing people come in and out. As unromantic as texting yourself poem ideas sounds, I didn't want to lose the ideas.
The next morning, I turned on my phone to find the two texts. The first simply said "medusa head dead snakes." The second, which read "stones sparking above," was accompanied by a video. I had tried to subtly get a picture–subtly because I didn't want to seem like the creep staring down at the crowd taking photos of strangers, but did want to capture the scene. I accidentally hit the video button, though, and wound up with an 8-second clip. Here's the video, for reference: https://vimeo.com/76005684
Sitting at my desk with these two clues, I started my regular writing routine. The "stones sparking above" quickly gave way to an entire poem, with Medusa appearing with a "ghost snake halo" near the end. It was the first time I've ever invoked Greek mythology in a poem, and after revision and revision and revision, it became "The Gods Take Your Secrets, and the Gods Take You Down," which appears in the new book.
I haven't shared this story with those same students who asked about writing habits, as I don't relish the thought of them picturing me dancing around in a strobe-light twitching Hollywood club (years ago, two students saw me dancing at an Outkast show in Atlanta, and they later admitted it was hard to look at me the same way in class after that). All the same, it reminds me of the importance of writing wherever writing wants to arrive, whether it is at a desk with morning coffee, or in a club, hearing your friends call you back into a crowd of dancing bodies.

We remember when bras did what they were supposed to and very little else. Apparently the technology age has changed that and now even our lingerie is wired, for better or worse. These two conceptual brassieres use technology to perform some high-tech (and very sexist) deeds.
The True Love Tester bra from Japanese lingerie company Ravijour is supposed to be "a revolutionary bra that knows how women truly feel." The bra is equipped with sensors that are supposed to recognize the wearer's differing heart rates during a variety of activities. The front clasp only opens when the wearer experiences "true love" as determined by an associated smartphone app.
The apparent purpose of the Love Tester Bra is to keep vulnerable women from having casual flings, ignoring the fact that women are smart enough to make their own decisions. The ridiculous concept doesn't explain what happens when a wearer runs into her true love on the street and her bra flies open – we aren't even sure how you might get into and out of the bra every day.
Perhaps more useful and associated with a more reputable company, this bra is meant to stop women from indulging in emotional eating. Researchers from Microsoft, the University of Southampton (UK), and the University of Rochester (NY) came together to develop a tool that would recognize and help prevent emotional eating. The bra is full of sensors that measure the wearer's vital signs, which are then sent through an app that is supposed to determine the wearer's emotional state.
Along with the bra's sensors, users can rely on the smartphone app to help them stop emotional eating. The app would allow users to log their food intake and emotional states day by day, making a connection between emotions and eating. It may seem as sexist as the Love Tester Bra, but the researchers say that they chose a bra only because it rests close to the heart all day, and men don't typically wear a similar garment. The bra and app were found to be 75 percent accurate in determining the wearer's emotional state, but it probably won't be put into production anytime soon.

The Morane-Saulnier Type N Monocoque was one of the earliest fighters, featuring a fixed machine gun firing through the propeller. No synchronizer was used; instead, deflector plates were fitted to the propeller to shunt bullets harmlessly aside. A small number were built by France and intermingled with Type Ls in the second half of 1915. Some were probably built in Russia, though records frequently confuse the Type L, I, and N. About 27 were built and used by the RFC, where the plane was known as the "Morane Bullet".
This product comes in both 1:144 and 1:285/6mm/1:288 scales. The 1:144 scale has a single aeroplane. The 1:285 product comes with three aeroplanes, each with a removable propeller disk rather than propeller blades. They are joined by sprues to keep the cost down.

Flight: Switzerland: Flying across Switzerland
December 29, 2018 by Garrett
Chronicles of Existential Dread: Volume V: Pissing in the Fountain of Youth
While I spend enough time dismantling the fantasy of travel, it's time to move on to smashing other dreams. Here in the land flowing with milk and honey, I find that the milk has gone sour and the honey is being swarmed by angry bees. The Promised Land is fatiguing.
It's not surprising that those who market properties in various Promised Lands present a place as being superior than it is. Economic development organizations do the same thing, as do tourist boards, and in some cases, entire nations that wish to hoodwink foreigners into spending their money (and being taxed) there. The curious thing is not those to whom obvious economic benefit derives from spreading near evangelical enthusiasm about new Promised Lands; rather, it is those who fall for it themselves that presents a mystique.
I cannot claim innocence. This blog is a testament to my completely deluded notion that Germany, the Fatherland, was somehow Jerusalem. We know how that ended, with my tail between my legs as I fled like a wanted fugitive from the police into France and on to Catalunya, only to piss off the locals with my outspokenness. Well, there is that, and the fact a family member did some genetic testing and found out that, well, maybe I am a lot less German than I thought. Poland….how you've always enchanted me, you sexy, stubborn, cantankerous, Slavic, pierogie-laden mistress….
The thing is, I haven't been able to go to a location and not hear someone telling me about how this location now represents the location to which Jesus, or Buddha, or anyone else superlatively divine is going to literally descend from the heavens and turn everything into gold.
I could go on about the psychodynamic motivators behind such confirmation biases, and I don't want to. Where does that leave me? For one thing, annoyed that there are treasure maps and bread crumb trails to real estate Jerusalems in all directions. On another, my usual sardonic self. And yet curiously on another, driven to decode the rubric's cube of life and find another way to crack the puzzle. Stay tuned.
In the meantime, here is a glorious flight crossing the Swiss Alps from west to east and back, which is really quite amazing. I would say it's the Promised Land, except the landing fees are too high.
Serre. Not the Promised Land.
Got shoved close to terrain to avoid the Swiss military, which was shooting armaments into the air. I love how neutral and peaceful Switzerland is.
Italy. Definitely not the Promised Land.
Back in Switzerland.
Italy again.
Back in Switzerland. Vadret de la Sella. Italian border is on the other side of the peak.
Piz Bernina (4049m / 13284′). My wife has a Bernina sewing machine…..
Vadret Pers (background) and Morteratschgletscher (foreground).
St. Moritz. It would be the Promised Land, had the Russians not invaded and made it the most expensive Alpine destination in the whole of the Alps!
Taking off from the highest airport in Europe. I do like the place…..
Albulapass.
Piz Ela (3339m / 10954′)
Some nice textures. Central Swiss Alps.
Switzerland then Italy then Switzerland then Italy then Switzerland again. Look at a map. It will make sense. Dufourspitze (4634m / 15203′) in the background.
Lago de Narèt, Switzerland, looking toward Italy.
Passo Della Novena, Switzerland. They speak Italian on this side, and German on the other.
Landschaftspark Binntal. Clearly I have crossed over to the dark side where German is spoken. Textures are nice.
Aletschgletscher.
Above Brig.
Bietschhorn (3934m / 12906′). I feel like the Alps are flipping me the bird.
Joligletscher. We visited a village on the other side, they had these abominable snowman looking dolls on the shelf of a restaurant, and we asked what they were about. The guy explained that there was a legend that, back when the glacier filled the entire valley, these people from a nearby village crossed the massive glacier and killed everyone in the other village. Very nice light lunch conversation. I further find it enthralling that it is memorialized into children's toys. The guy then changed the subject to bemoaning that the [neutral, peaceful] Swiss Parliament had just voted to allow the manufacture and export of some egregious armaments.
Getting close to where French is spoken.
That cloud is dust from a rockfall.
Flights: Switzerland, France, Italy: Summiting Mont Blanc
Mt. Blanc is something of a personal achievement. I had been planning for it since the notion of moving to Germany materialized in 2015, and it hasn't escaped my notice in the intervening time period. Prior flights in Switzerland showed I could get pretty close to the summit, though always from below and on the north side. Summer clouds, restricted areas in France, wind conditions, and summer heat meant I couldn't quite get it up.
I finally took a shot at the nefarious south side, in Italian airspace, hoping to catch some rotors. I got most of the way, though not enough, and went home dismayed. Then I talked to a Swiss pilot, who looked up the French restricted area, only to find out that it restricts ultralights and gliders in July and August. So there basically is no restricted area for my aircraft type. In the USA, a restricted area is pretty much black and white: its restricted or not. The French version is more nuanced.
With that problem out of the way, I made another shot at it after a flight to Gran Paradiso in Italy. Coming over a cloud from the south side, I caught favorable winds, and up we go….16,000 feet, just enough to sneer at the summit beneath, though not quite enough to beat my [at the time] altitude record of 16,300'. After three years of fantasizing, it has been accomplished!
The approach to Mont Blanc looks like this. Roughly 10,500′.
Typical view of the summit (15,774′), below and to the north.
Better, yet a bit repetitive.
Tried the south side in Italy. View from 13,200′.
Another day coming from Gran Paradiso, Italy. Clouds mean rising air…
…which meant success. Looking down on the summit. France in the background.

News West Indies Pull Out of India tour 2014
West Indies Pull Out of India tour 2014
by Admin on 10/17/2014 in News
The West Indies tour to India has been called off suddenly due to the ongoing payment structure dispute between the players and the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and WIPA. The fourth ODI in Dharamsala will be their last game of the series, which was scheduled to have a fifth ODI, a Twenty20 international as well as three Tests.
India will now play five ODIs against Sri Lanka between November 1 and 15, after Sri Lanka Cricket accepted the BCCI's invitation to fill the void.
The BCCI said it was "shocked and disappointed" and that the decision to abandon the tour had been "taken by the WICB."
What led to the West Indies pullout?
September 19 WICB and WIPA sign new bargaining agreement and Memorandum of Understanding. WIPA president Wavell Hinds says agreement "not perfect", but brings stability to the system.
October 7 West Indies players threaten to sit out the first ODI against India and claim that Hinds "hoodwinked" them while signing the MoU.
October 8 West Indies play the first ODI, but the captain Bravo asks Hinds and other WIPA officials with conflict of interests, to tender their resignation immediately.
October 11 Bravo writes to WICB president Dave Cameron seeking an "urgent intervention" over payment issues between the board, the players, and WIPA.
October 15 The growing impasse between the players and WIPA intensifies, with the players and WIPA exchanging emails. Hinds denies all claims made against him and says senior West Indies players had expressed "100% support" towards a resolution. Bravo denies any such a resolution was passed.
October 16 WICB says it will "engage" only with the WIPA, and not the players, to resolve the issue.
October 17 West Indies play the fourth ODI against India in Dharamsala, but news breaks during the game that the rest of the tour has been abandoned.
"They have withdrawn their team and this (development) has come abruptly. We received an email from Richie Richardson, the West Indies team manager, only this [Friday] morning," BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel told ESPNcricnfo.
Patel also told PTI that the BCCI was contemplating legal action against the WICB.
"The reason given by WICB is that there were internal issues among their boys. The BCCI will be going to ICC and is planning to sue the WICB and claim for damages. We will not take this lying down as we have cooperated with them in every aspect," he said.
The BCCI's release said, "The WICB's inability to resolve internal issues with its players and allowing the same to affect an ongoing bilateral series does not reflect well on any of those involved." The withdrawal had, "given little thought to the future of the game, the players and the long standing relations between the BCCI and WICB."
"This is a unilateral decision taken by the WICB and its players, in spite of several appeals to the WICB to honour its commitment and complete the series." The BCCI would, "pursue all options available" and seek "appropriate action" from the ICC, referring to the abrupt end to the tour as an act of indiscretion.
BCCI joint secretary Anurag Thakur told PTI the West Indies players were "hell bent not to play" the fourth ODI, and only agreed to take the field upon his insistence.
Before the game, Dwayne Bravo, the West Indies ODI captain, had indicated something serious was brewing when he told Ian Bishop, the television commentator, at the toss: "Time to make a decision." Bravo was accompanied by his West Indies team-mates who stood beside him.

Tony Irish, the executive chairman of international players' association FICA, is reported to be working with WICB and WIPA to try and resolve the issue. "It is always unfortunate when players pull out of a tour," he said.
The reason for the dispute between the West Indies players and WIPA had been the memorandum of understanding and the combined bargaining agreement signed between WIPA and WICB in September. Bravo, acting as the player representative, had claimed that WIPA president and CEO Wavell Hinds had kept the players in the dark over the MoU, which he allegedly signed without their consent.
On the eve of the first ODI in Kochi, Bravo had warned that if Hinds did not cooperate and respond to the questions raised by the players, a strike or a pullout from the tour could not be ruled out. Though Hinds responded eventually, Bravo continued to insist that Hinds should step down as CEO and president, and even asked the WICB to not communicate with WIPA till a solution was found. However, WICB president Dave Cameron sent an email to Bravo saying the board would only engage with WIPA, adhering to the MoU signed in September.
Some people thinks that West Indies Board Understand that they have not enough power to win the series .So they Called off the series .

Pack up and put in at Sawbill Lake. Head west through Alton, Beth, and Grace to Phoebe Lake. After July 1, small mouth are very easy to catch on Alton and Beth. Take the longer portage between Beth and Grace rather than the two shorter ones through Ella. Grace and Phoebe are two of the finest walleye and small mouth lakes in the Boundary Waters. The little rapids between Grace and Phoebe are too small to be navigable. Be sure to hike into these streams off the portages, though, for some gorgeous scenery.
Hazel and Polly complete the string of lakes named after ladies. The story is pioneer forest ranger Bill Mulligan named these lakes after his maiden aunts. Polly is a fairly busy lake, so push on to Koma for unequalled walleye fishing.
A short portage around the rapids separates you from Malberg Lake. Don't be tempted by these rapids or any of the others on this route. They are not shootable even in high water. Although canoes have been wrecked in these rapids, dents and holes are the almost certain outcome for the reckless. Turn now to the east and go upstream on the Louse River to Trail Lake. You should be well organized and lightly packed to attempt this segment of the route, if you are the rewards are great. Paddle through lacy tamaracks and mysterious floating bogs. Portage alongside deep, moss-covered stream-carved grottos. Surprise blue herons, snapping turtles or playful otters as you wind around the river bends. Trail Lake is small, has two good campsites and many large walleyes and northerns.
Travel from Trail to Wine. The path follows much of the same pattern as the day before. Long, rugged portages, gorgeous scenery and plentiful wildlife punctuate this stretch. This can be a difficult day. All of the maps made of this portion of the Louse River are more or less inaccurate. Don't count on being able to follow each mile of progress and each portage on your map. Watch for major landmarks and enjoy the feeling of being adrift in the Wilderness! As long as you stay on an upstream course, you'll get where you are going. Try for lake trout at the bottom (60+ feet down) of the eastern half of Wine Lake.
Two long portages bring you over the great continental divide known as the Laurentian. Two short portages and a couple of hours of paddling bring you back to Sawbill in time for a hot shower and some warm memories of the Lady Chain/Louse River route.

Why are Sanitation Workers in Pakistan Killing themselves? HRCP Explains the Suicides
Posted on January 19, 2020 by Sidra Jafri
A society is known by whether or not it is able to protect its weakest citizens. In the last few months there has been a steady rise in suicide attempts by sanitation workers in Pakistan.
These workers are "at the lowest tier of the sanitation services. They maintain, inspect, clean and unclog sewers and, when needed, descend via manholes into fecal sludge, without protection equipment or tools. They do not have a voice. There is no union or federation of sanitation workers — unlike in other countries — to let us hear their collective voice. We only know that the majority of these workers belong to a minority community, discriminated against and shunned by the majority. We come to know of their existence when they suffer fatal accidents in the line of duty, or when they are treated inhumanly in the most unpardonable manner like an injured worker from Umerkot was reportedly treated in hospital."
According to the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) "arbitrary layoffs and the non-payment of wages have continued for months. This is taking a brutal toll on a section of the workforce that is often considered 'invisible', despite providing vital labour."
HRCP condemned "the indifference of the federal and provincial governments, and of municipal corporations, to such workers who consistently face hazardous working conditions. The Commission aims to work closely with sanitation workers' associations across the country and demands that their grievances are heard and redressed fairly and promptly. Sanitation work demands the same dignity and welfare benefits as any other occupation."
HRCP: Where is the sovereignty of Pakistan's citizens?
Posted on January 15, 2020 by Shaista Sindhu
If Pakistan seeks to make progress towards becoming a democracy, one of the key issues that need to be tackled are its human rights record. At a recent seminar, held by the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), a high-profile panel of human rights defenders discussed constitutionalism and human rights.
The panel "included HRCP Honorary Spokesperson I. A. Rehman; HRCP Secretary-General Harris Khalique; HRCP Council member and Supreme Court advocate Hina Jilani; Secretary-General of the Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists, Nasir Zaidi; former director of the Pakistan Institute for Parliamentary Services, Zafarullah Khan; former Senators Afrasiab Khattak, Farhatullah Babar and Taj Haider; Justice Shakeel Baloch; senior journalists Muhammad Ziauddin, Hamid Mir and Asma Shirazi; Secretary-General of the Supreme Court Bar Association Shamim Malik; and political activist Dr Aasim Sajjad Akhtar. The seminar was attended by a cross section of society."
The HRCP "resolution adopted by the panel urged the political leadership to ensure the supremacy of parliament, rule of law, and the people's fundamental freedoms and rights. It stated that elected representatives should ensure that the system of governance rests on established laws and constitutional norms, instead of ordinances. The resolution also noted how political engineering by undemocratic forces had damaged the democratic process and encouraged selective accountability. The actions of law enforcement agencies, primarily intelligence agencies, should be brought within the ambit of the law through a strong, independent parliamentary oversight mechanism. As per the resolution, the policing duties in the tribal districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa must be handed over to civilian law enforcement institutions. The insidious practice of running internment centres in KP must also cease."
HRCP also urged "the government to criminalise enforced disappearances in accordance with the International Convention against Enforced Disappearances, and let the public know the outcome of the proceedings at the Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappearances. Various speeches reiterated that Pakistan's youth, which has been kept alienated for decades and taken to the streets to claim their rights, must be heeded, not vilified in the form of criminal cases. Human rights defenders and journalists must be allowed to do their jobs and to criticise where criticism is called for. If Pakistan is to progress as a democratic country, the state must form empowered, autonomous local bodies in all federating units of the country. It must restore people's faith in the judiciary by making it clear that those who abrogate the Constitution will be held accountable. Indeed, HRCP hopes the apex court will overturn the recent regressive judgment of the Lahore High Court. The state must also protect provincial autonomy under the Eighteenth Amendment and the National Finance Commission Award. Provincial autonomy is a democratic right of Pakistan's federating units."
Pakistan's Politicians Vote to Recognize 'Divine Right' of Army Chiefs
Posted on January 7, 2020 by Shaista Sindhu
On Tuesday, January 7, 2020, the National Assembly of Pakistan approved a bill granting legal cover to a three-year extension in service to current Chief of Army Staff, General Qamar Javed Bajwa, ending what some have referred to as "stand-off between the nation's strong military and the judiciary." The bill will become a law once it is approved by the Senate, the upper house. What was predictable was how the two main opposition parties, both Pakistan People's Party, co-headed by former president Asif Ali Zardari, and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz of ex-premier Nawaz Sharif, supported this move by Imran Khan's led government.
Two days earlier, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) had expressed deep concern "at Parliament's attempt to hastily introduce legislation that will affect the organisation of the military through the recently tabled Pakistan Army (Amendment) Act 2020, the Pakistan Navy (Amendment) Act and the Pakistan Airforce (Amendment) Act. In the interest of preserving the sanctity of democratic rule, decisions concerning the rules and regulations that govern the tenure and appointment of military chiefs must not be made rashly. The undue haste in which this has occurred has worrying implications for the way in which democratic decisions are made in the future. Building institutions that outlast individuals is paramount to strengthening Pakistan's ability to protect citizens' fundamental rights. The recently tabled laws are a matter of public interest and the people's elected representatives have a duty to legislate with responsibility and not on an ad hoc basis. This is critical to the spirit of the Constitution."
However, even the Senate Standing committee on Defense approved the legislations and the bills will be approved by the Senate tomorrow.
The only parliamentarians who opposed the bills were those from Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F), Jamaat-i-Islami and representatives from the erstwhile Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata). In a tweet, a North Waziristan MNA Mohsin Dawar said prior to walking out of the National Assembly, they had voted against the Pakistan Army (Amendment) Bill 2020. "This parliament acted like a rubber stamp. Speaker didn't even allow the few dissenting voices to make their case. This is one of the darkest days in Pakistan's parliamentary history. It will take a long time to recover from this."
Nankana Incident Shows Limits of Pakistan's Khalistan Agenda
Posted on January 3, 2020 by Sidra Jafri
Pakistan has often been described as one of the worst offenders of religious freedom and minority rights. While Prime Minister Imran Khan and his advisers may claim things have improved this Friday January 3's events in Nankana Sahib, one of the holiest shrines of the Sikh community, show how far Pakistan has still left to go. Gurdwara Nankana Sahib, also known as the Gurdwara Janam Asthan, is the site where the first Guru of the Sikhs, Guru Nanak, was born and is regarded as one of the holiest sites in the religion.
In August 2019, a First Information Report (FIR) was filed in the Nankana police station against six people who were accused of abducting and forcibly converting a Sikh woman, Jagjit Kaur. On Friday scores of protesters staged a sit-in outside the Nankhana Sahib Gurdwara, led by the family of the man accused of the abduction and conversion, Ehsan.
Many Pakistani activists streamed videos of the sit in and the tense situation at the gurdwara.
The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) also issued a statement on twitter condemning the incident and asking the government to protect the Gurdwara.
In the end the protesters dispersed only after obtaining the release of the arrested person.
General Bajwa's Extension Drama Continues
In the midst of economic crises and international turmoil, Army Chief General Bajwa's extension continues to occupy primetime on Pakistani media and in a predictable development the government and the opposition will work together to ensure that the COAS gets his extension.
In August 2019, Prime Minister Imran Khan had extended Gen Bajwa's tenure for three years through a notification, but on November 26, 2019 – three days before Gen Bajwa was due to retire – the Supreme Court under then Chief Justice Khosa suspended the order. Two days later the apex court announced that Bajwa would remain the COAS for another six months during which the parliament would legislate on the army chief's extension/reappointment.
In the wake of this order, the PTI government decided to introduce an amendment bill in parliament after building a consensus with major opposition parties – PMLN and PPP – on the matter.
As Dawn reports "The government needs the support of opposition parties to make
the amendments as any amendment to the Constitution needs to be approved by at least two-thirds of the membership of each House — the National Assembly and Senate. "We are hopeful that the bill seeking amendments in the army act, which requires a simple majority, will be passed from both houses unanimously on Friday," said PTI MNA Malik Amir Dogar. He said that under a provision, the maximum age limit of the army, navy and air force chiefs and joint chief of staff committee will be 64 years in case they are given an extension in their tenures."
The new laws"will fix 64 years as the maximum age limit of the three services chiefs — chief of army staff, chief of air staff and chief of naval staff — and the chairman of the joint chief of staff committee, with the prime minister having the prerogative to give an extension to any of them in future after completion of their normal tenure at the age of 60 years and the president having the power to give the final nod."
Interestingly, "speaking to reporters after the NA session, PPP Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said his party will support the legislation if it is done through the parliamentary rules and regulations. He said the bills will first be sent to the National Assembly Standing Committee on Defence and the matter will be discussed in the House, adding that PML-N had not taken the opposition into confidence before offering the government their unconditional support on the legislation. "I think this should have not happened in this way. It is the responsibility of the leader of the opposition to unite the opposition and maintain consensus among ranks."
However, "However, Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) chief Sirajul Haq tweeted on Friday evening
that his party "will not support" the Army Act amendment bill. JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman, while talking to media in Islamabad, also said his party will "thoroughly resist" the amendment bill because it cannot give the right to legislate to a National Assembly "that was formed after stealing the people's mandate"."

The Best Beaches from São Paulo's South Coast
Those who explore São Paulo's south coast will find incredible beach cities like historical Iguape, ecologically preserved Cananéia, and bustling Guarujá.
Contributing Reporter

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Just like its north coast, São Paulo's southern seaside can be a pleasant surprise, possessing a variety of stunning beaches. Completely different from the grey megalopolis of São Paulo, the southern coast is a great destination for enjoying nature and refreshing yourself on an autumn's weekend.
In Guarujá, it is easy to relax on one of its crystalline beaches, like Praia do Saco do Major, photo internet recreation.
One of the things that make São Paulo's south coast so special is its incredible diversity. There is Santos, the most economically significant port city in the region, and Cananéia, an ecotourism reference. The region offers beaches for all tastes, attracting families, couples and groups of friends.
Known as the "Pearl of the Atlantic", Guarujá, only 73 kilometers away from the capital, is a favorite destination among visitors for its exciting nightlife and impressive infrastructure.
Among the most popular beach is Praia do Tombo, close to Guarujá's center and a surfers' paradise for its great waves. Then there is Pitangueiras, the most touristic, where one can go up to the top of Morro do Maluf hill and enjoy a privileged view of Guarujá.
More off the beaten track, Praia Preta, Praia Cheira Limão, Praia do Saco do Major and Praia das Conchas are worth checking out, offering a more tranquil environment, far from the crowds of Tombo and Pitangueiras. Once in Guarujá, also make sure to visit its aquarium, the biggest in Latin America.
Situated 265 kilometers away from São Paulo, the city of Cananéia stands out for its incredibly preserved nature and picturesque architecture. Considered an ecological sanctuary, Cananéia is mainly famous for Ilha do Cardoso, an island under environmental protection; Camboriú, a favorite for scuba diving practitioners; and Prainha, which neighbors a mangrove.
Right next to Cananéia lies Iguape, the biggest municipality of São Paulo state in terms of area (1,977 square kilometers). Possessing a charming historical center that is preserved by Brazil's National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage, Iguape is a favorite destination for São Paulo's residents for its beaches, history, and lively carnival.
One of the coolest beaches in Iguape is Praia da Juréia. Nature-loving visitors will absolutely love this beach, characterized by an absolutely preserved ecosystem, some colonial buildings, and a good selection of accommodation and restaurants.
The most economically relevant city from São Paulo's coast, Santos offers nice beaches, great infrastructure, eventful nightlife and cultural attractions, photo internet recreation.
Certainly the most famous beach destination among São Paulo's residents is Santos, the biggest coastal city of the state, located 70 kilometers away from the metropolis. Because of its high economic importance (Santos is home to one of Brazil's most dynamic ports), the city offers sophisticated infrastructure and services.
Santos' most popular beaches are Praia do Gonzaga, where many hotels and residences are located; Praia do Boqueirão, with its many bars and restaurants and considered the nightlife hub of Santos; Praia da Aparecida, known for its calm waters; and Ponta da Praia, great for water sports like windsurfing, jet skiing, and sailing.
What's more, many alternative attractions can be found in the city of Santos, such as its recently revitalized historical center, its aquarium or one of its many parks.
To get to Santos from São Paulo's capital, one must take the Anchieta road (SP-150) and then Imigrantes (SP-160). Those who come from Rio de Janeiro, the best option is starting from BR-101, and then take the Rio-Santos road.
To get to Guarujá from São Paulo, one must also take the Anchieta road, and turn onto the Cônego Domenico Rangoni road afterwards. Those who come from Rio can also get to Guarujá through the Rio-Santos road.
To get to Cananéia from the capital, one should follow the BR-116 highway and, when passing by the city of Registro, turn right into the city of Pariquera-Açu. Afterward, one must continue on the road that leads to Cananéia. To get to Iguape from São Paulo, one must also take BR-116 and then SP-230.

Ask any San Franciscan what his or her favorite dive bar is and you'll end up with a long list, out of which no two answers will be the same. There are cluttered Chinatown tiki joints, Mexican-themed watering holes and retro Tenderloin lounges, many of which come packing a jukebox, a pool table or both. Where many cities' dives have begun to decay and shutter, San Francisco's scene is a vast sea of grimy, cheap, down-and-dirty hideouts from decades gone by.
Original leather booths, unfussy drinks and a jukebox packed with rock and country classics make the 500 Club the Mission's quintessential dive bar experience. This historic spot is something of a landmark, having remained a constant in an area that's becoming more upscale by the day. Kitsch and memorabilia line the walls, and though the pool table has been lost to time, the space's convivial atmosphere and propensity for slinging draughts without a touch of pretense soldier on.
Techy youth and older locals alike are prey to the charms of the Casanova Lounge, with its great DJ nights and dirt cheap happy hour specials. But the real appeal of the Casanova Lounge is exactly as the name suggests: it's a semi-sleazy yet somehow attractive bar with vintage paintings, worn-in velvet and leather seating and vintage lamps that give the space a seedy-seductive quality. Come for a cheap drink, stay for whatever follows.
Clooney's Pub is one of the few bars that's weathered the Mission's recent development and come out on the other side unscathed. Its circular bar, around which you'll find many of the area's original tenants (and their dogs), evokes a nostalgia that's hard to find these days. History is captured in the many photos that adorn the walls, documenting not just the evolution of the space, but the city around it.
A revered dive in San Francisco's Chinatown, Li Po Lounge has remained relatively unchanged since opening in the 1930s. Considered by many to be the neighborhood's best dive, Li Po tends to draw a diverse crowd—from bewildered tourists to shady locals and everything in between. The space is equally eclectic, comprised of a smattering of traditional Chinese watercolor designs, paper lanterns and a carved Buddha shrine behind the bar. While there are rumors that the bar used to double as an opium den, the only drugs they're slinging these days are remarkably potent (and cheap) Mai Tais.
The booze-slinging equivalent of a thrift shop, this Mission spot caters to its fair share of the tech hipsters in search of a cheap, stiff drink. But its fan base isn't just limited to the hoodie-d Mission set, drawing in plenty of strays and locals for a game of pool under a chandelier made of naked Barbies or a few turns on the jukebox.
Recalling the true definition of the term "no frills," the Golden Cane has been a consistent standby for the Haight contingent for decades. Besides the odd tourist, it's a fairly local crowd, which isn't to say the scene is sleepy; Friday and Saturday nights see a fair number of outsiders looking for a cheap drink and a good time. A lively back porch is a crowd favorite, while a pool table and a few arcade games top off the decor, which has remained the same since the '70s.
An Embarcadero staple for the pre- or post-Giants game crowd, The Hi Dive does not mince words with its exacting title: This is a dive bar through and through. Situated almost beneath the Bay Bridge, a linoleum bar counter and primary colored banquettes lend the bar a hometown atmosphere, and strong drinks keep regulars coming back.
An old-school Mission dive with graphic piñatas hanging from the rafters, the Latin American Club mixes Mexican kitsch with some of the stiffest drinks in town. A sign that reads, "sin" hangs above the front door, and that's not a suggestion—it's a promise.
A Tenderloin mainstay, you'll know you've found The Summer Place the moment you see its craggy exterior. Though not intuitive, a gas fireplace acts as a centerpiece, around which you'll find more than a few locals nursing a glass. Without a shred of pretense, but with a solid jukebox and retro stylings, The Summer Place is the perfect place to fend off the San Francisco chill.
Occupying a converted warehouse with exposed beams and high ceilings and featuring a number of vintage bicycles suspended above, The Tempest is a low key SOMA spot popular with locals and bike messengers. Throwback lighting, an antique bar and a time-tested pool table adorn the space, which, in its hiding place off of Natoma Street, is successful in maintaining a tourist-evasive atmosphere.
With roots in the Richmond long before the recent tiki movement, Trad'r Sam's ignores the call for lavish decor and artisanal rum in favor of lowbrow cheap, sweet island-inspired cocktails. While subtle Polynesian flourishes grace the interior, this is far more dive bar than proper tiki bar, so don't expect much more than a guaranteed hangover.
Falling somewhere between a beer garden and a biker bar, Zeitgeist is a staple for both Mission natives and the tech crowd alike. Featuring a good selection of fairly priced beers on tap, as well as unexpectedly knowledgeable bartenders and a full kitchen to boot, it's almost never empty. If the weather's right, head to the relatively uncrowded back porch and yard, where it's easy to forget you're in the heart of the city.


The annual Korean American Film Festival New York (KAFFNY) has announced it will celebrate its seventh edition from October 24-26 at Village East Cinema in NYC.
The KAFFNY is the only artistic programme of its kind in New York dedicated to the Korean War and North Korea in commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the Korean War Armistice.
KAFFNY will open with two films – Deann Borshay Liem and Ramsay Liem's short Memory Of Forgotten War and documentary Seeking Haven from filmmaker Hein Seok.
The closing night film will be the first US-North Korean co-production, The Other Side Of The Mountain by first-time screenwriter and producer Joon Bai, and directed by In Hak Jang.
"Five of our main programme's feature-length fiction and documentary films explore the forgotten history, the continuing impact of the Korean War, and relevant North Korean subject matter," said artistic director Susie Lim.
The festival will also feature its returning shorts competition that highlights new Korean American and Korean talent and an inaugural Visual Arts section that features artists working in film, video and new media in a two-part exhibition.
