Isn't it strange to read the words of a person you've never met? Or maybe we have met and don't know it. Maybe we will meet. Maybe we'll be friends, or lovers, or perhaps we'll instantly dislike each other. Right now we're just strangers, having a one-sided conversation on a piece of paper.
If you'll lend me a moment of your time, maybe it will be as though we have met. I'll share a piece of me, and maybe it will touch a piece of you. If you look around the room you're in, maybe every person in it has the ability to change you in some way. Maybe you have the ability to change someone else.
I think we've all felt lonely sometimes. Even when you are surrounded by people, you can feel completely alone. In fact, that's the hardest kind of loneliness there is - lying next to someone you love, or in the presence of friends. How do you solve that kind of disconnect, when the people you care about are within reach, but you cannot seem to touch them? Have you ever felt that way? Maybe you are blessed with connectedness and love, or maybe you struggle to find fleeting moments of it. Maybe you ride waves of joy before being swept under by a sea of sadness.
Life is too short to feel alone. It's scary, and hard, and vulnerable, and no one really talks about it. Sometimes I get scared. I'm scared there isn't enough time to do the things that matter, or be with the people I love. I'm scared I'll hurt people with my words and actions and not be able to make it right. I'm scared that doing my best won't be enough. I'm scared we will go through life never really feeling whole.
I don't know what your life is like… but if you've felt lonely, or afraid, or disconnected from the world, then please hear me. You are not alone, and it's okay to be scared, and if you are looking for connection, make it. Reach out to someone instead of waiting for them to reach out to you. Ask for what you need. Write a letter to someone you do not know. Maybe we are all just waiting for someone to share a piece of themselves.
Thanks for letting me talk. I hope we meet someday.

Novembre – URSA Review Ihsahn – Arktis. Review
The Glorious Rebellion – Euphoric Review
By Mark Z. On April 3, 2016 · 30 Comments · In 2016, American Metal, Hard Rock, Magnetic Eye Records, Reviews, Sludge
Being a metal reviewer is fun. I get to discover new gems I probably wouldn't have otherwise heard, I get to think of creative ways to make fun of bad albums, and I get to work with an amazing and talented group of fellow writers whose reviews and recommendations provide an abundance of new, quality metal to check out. But like all jobs, this one has a dark side. And just like the Ruby Tuesday's waiter who has to clean that child's diarrhea splatter off the bathroom wall at the end of his Saturday night shift, the time eventually comes that we, too, must roll up our sleeves, pinch our noses, and dive right into the shit. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: The Glorious Rebellion's Euphoric.
Let me get the two positives out of the way first. One, this record is only 19 minutes long. Two, Euphoric made me realize science has advanced much further than I thought, because this sounds like it was created by someone who snuck into my bedroom while I was sleeping, probed my brain using hitherto unknown technology, and used this data to concoct an album of everything I don't like in metal. Though this Orlando trio dubs themselves 'noise rock,' in reality this debut full-length sounds more like a piece of southern-fried, groovy nu metal with all the mansweat and swagger of Triple H. In fact, that name provides a fitting acronym for the three closest points of comparison here: Hellyeah, Helmet, and hell on fucking Earth.
Where to start? Euphoric's production is so bad it literally made me wince – the DR4 sounds like DR2, the guitar tone is overwhelmingly boomy, and the mix blasts away any nuance with the force of a hydrogen bomb. Averaging just over three minutes, these six tracks are typically comprised of two or three buttheadedly simple, repetitive riffs that begin to sound recycled by third track "Benaquyl." Vocals consist of raspy yells with lots of 'tude, occasionally lapsing into gravel-y, post-grunge singing during the attempted hooks. Lyrically, vocalist Billy Myers delivers gems like "My cock won't suck itself!" from penultimate track "The Dirtiest Dream Jobs," repeats menial phrases like "Can't sell out if we don't buy in!," and concludes the whole mess with screams of "I'm going straight to hell!" from the oh-so-cleverly-titled closer "Bitches Hate Misogyny."
I guess Rebellion are attempting to take a sludgy, noisy base and inject some accessibility for the Rockstar-fueled masses at the open-air summer festivals they'll no doubt be frequenting in a few months. Problem is, they fail. These barre-chord sounding riffs – like those in opener "It's a Sucker's Game, Kid" – are some of the most blasé I've ever heard, the 'songwriting' is sheer ABAB paint-by-numbers, and the hooks make Limp Bizkit look like Led Zeppelin. Sure, there's a few decent moments – the aforementioned opener features a passable chorus riff, and the refrain of "Emmett Brown Has Never Met a Scott That Wasn't Great" shows promise with its initial melody and 'Ooh-oh' backing vocals before it prematurely truncates itself – but this ultimately makes the album feel like a Big Mac that got chewed up by a Rottweiler and left in a rain-soaked alley. At one point, you can tell it would have made a passable meal, but in its current state you just want to walk away and try not to gag.
If I'm really reaching, the chuggy riffing and lunkheaded lyrics combined with Myers' totally earnest, Southern swagga inflection do give Euphoric a bit of an amusing 'so bad it's good' quality. And – though it's not difficult for music this simple – the group can at least play their instruments competently. But overall, the record is appalling from both a musical and thematic standpoint, an obnoxious and superficial attempt at cutting through the bullshit that reminds us that sometimes, the truth is better left obscured. This is a mouth ripped apart by stale Captain Crunch, an aural buttfucking without the lubricant, the sound of dumbbells being thrown around the weight room by muscle-bound men guzzling from gallon water jugs. I'm sure there's an audience for this somewhere, and if Rebellion finds success from those fans, more power to them. But I can't imagine myself – or any of the patrons of this site – ever wanting to count themselves among that crowd.

Cooke plans to continue operating until then, agency officials said, and in late April, the Canada-based company sought permission to move 800,000 juvenile fish from its hatchery near Rochester to grow out to adult size in net pens in Rich Passage.
Tests taken from samples of fish that would have been transported showed they had a form of the fish virus PRV that has not been known to occur in Washington waters.
Cooke did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment on Thursday.
State officials also said that Cooke proposed putting the juvenile fish into pens that had not been empty for at least 30 days, a move that contradicted its own management plan.
Following the August collapse of net pens at Cypress Island, the state agency began requiring that fish be tested for PRV before they are transferred.

Left to right: Annie Sprinkle, Alan Adrian, and Penny Kat Sunlove in their 1988 heyday.
John Mozzer was an information technology specialist who'd received security clearance from the National Security Agency. But in his secret life, one that he lived from 1978 to 1995, he was Alan Adrian, a pornographic actor who appeared in 67 XXX-rated movies, including such classics as A Taste of Money, Inside Little Oral Annie, Maid in Manhattan, Babylon Blue, Oriental Techniques in Pain and Pleasure, Centerfold Fever, and The Devil in Miss Jones II.
Now retired and living in L.A., Mozzer tends to an extensive archive of material related to the porn industry. He also knows many of the characters from Beaver Street, and he recently posted a review of the book on Amazon. I think the review serves as a perfect example of the kind of dialogue that I'd hoped Beaver Street would spark, and which I'd encourage people to continue.
This is what Mozzer had to say:
A Fascinating Read
My original reason for reading Beaver Street: A History of Modern Pornography is that my world overlapped with author Robert Rosen's world during the 1980s. I worked as an adult film actor (under the name Alan Adrian or Spike), a representative for magazine distributing and printing companies that profited by serving the porn industry, and a freelance writer and photographer for some of Rosen's colleagues.
It's a shame that names have to be changed in non-fiction books like Beaver Street. I was hoping to recognize the colleagues whose names were changed by Rosen. But that didn't happen. I suspect this means it will be all the more difficult for future writers on this topic to figure out who's who.
To my surprise, in Chapter 4, Rosen describes Carl Ruderman, the person with the money behind High Society, as very involved with its day-to-day operation. Furthermore, his anecdotes about working for High Society came across as very credible. I found myself feeling, "I'm sure these things really happened." Nevertheless, I think caution is in order, because Rosen's stint at High Society is a small fraction of the magazine's life, and the situation may have changed over time. After finishing Chapter 4, I decided the extent to which Ruderman involved himself with the day-to-day operation of High Society, over the long run, remains an open question.
Years ago, I heard about the murder of editor Bill Bottiggi. But I never knew about the circumstances leading up to the murder, as Rosen describes it. I find Rosen's account very disconcerting. After all these years, I have to reconsider placing Bottiggi in the "all good" and "nice guy" category in my head. Initially, I believed Rosen's account. Later, I found myself not wanting to believe it, and longing for accounts by other people who knew Bottiggi.
Rosen presents strong arguments against society for allowing Traci Lords to get away with hoodwinking the porn industry. In fact, his arguments made me very, very pissed off at her.
Beaver Street was truly a book that I couldn't put down. I learned tons of stuff that I didn't know. You don't need to have been involved with the porn industry, like myself, in order to enjoy the book. You don't even have to be involved with researching the subject. Beaver Street is a fascinating book to read.
Aug 19, 2013 7:18 AM EDT
I worked for Carl Ruderman in NYC and Miami from about 2010-2013. I can guarantee, even 30 years after Rosen worked there, everything he wrote was spot on. I too sat before that big ornate desk as he plotted for more and more money. The difference was by then he had moved to "beauty product" re-bill schemes. They would make a website for a "free trial" and in order to get a MID from the bank to run online credit card processing, then we would use that MID on an entirely different site that hid the fact that after 14 days you would be billed $129 a month for your "free trial". Moreover, they would put these sites in dozens of company names, and pay lower level employees to put the companies in their names so he would not be liable. Although his son Blake was officially in charge by that time, he knew every single thing that was going on, that it was illegal, and he encouraged it.

The Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker (picoides tridactylus) was originally described as Picus tridactylus in 1758 by Linnaeus and later named in the genus Picoides Lacepede in 1799. In 2003, this Three-toed Woodpecker was split into the American Three-toed and the Eurasian Three-toed Woodpeckers. The Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker is the only woodpecker in the world whose breeding and roosting habitat extends farther north than that of the the American Three-toed Woodpecker.
Most woodpeckers have four toes on each foot, but the Three-toed and Black-backed Woodpeckers have only three. Having just one large, strong toe on the back of the foot gives them the stability to deliver more powerful blows than their four-toed cousins, but it has come at the expense of agility and climbing expertise since it is stationary. Four-toed woodpeckers are able to rotate that toe, but three-toed birds are not.
The Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker's numbers are declining due to the felling of the old coniferous forests and fragmentation of the massifs (mountain ranges). These areas provide them with food and habitat, particularly in the Pirin National Park in southwest Bulgaria. There, they have a great deal of competition for food and habitat by other woodpeckers. However, more recently, the Bulgarian government has begun protecting their national biological treasures with the conservations acts they have put into effect. The Biological Diversity Act is included in the Red Data Book of Bulgaria (1985) and declares that the mountains of Pirin and Rila are to be national parks, and the Rila Monastery is to be a nature park. There are also strict reserves within their territories, preserving 65% of its population.
In the early 1900's, it was commonly seen in some areas of the Rila mountains, but up until the end of the 20th century, only the registered breeding places in the mountains Rila, Pirin and the Western Rhodopes were recognized. However, between 1995-2005, the EurasianThree-toed was discovered in additional regions of those three mountains as well as in Vitosha mountain. More recently, it was registered in the reserves of Mantaritsa and Soskovcheto and above Prespa Hut, in the Western Rhodopes. Their numbers are not large, however. Only 90-130 breeding pairs exist in the Western Rhodopes, 140-230 breeding pairs are in the Rilo-Rhodope meta-population common for Bulgaria and Greece, and 80-290 breeding pairs dwell in the Western Balkan meta-population.
Since this species dwells in the boreal forests and montane coniferous forests across its Eurasian territories, very few people have observed it. They prefer mature forests with abundance of insect-infested snags. They also utilize dying trees and stands of trees disturbed by disease, fire, or other disasters. These old forests, mainly spruce, attract the Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker, and he will most often choose trees which reach high altitudes.
Plumage becomes darker and birds larger from north to south.
Range: Northern Europe east across the southern taiga to Altai Mountains, northern Mongolia, Manchuria, Ussuriland and Sakhalin.
Range: Northern taiga from Urals east to the Sea of Okhotsk.
Range: Kamchatka Peninsula in the Russian Far East.
Range: Mountains of southern, southeastern and central Europe, Tian or Tien Shan., northeastern Korea and northern Japan (Hokkaido).
Range: Southwestern China to Tibet.
Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker (inouyei) (Picoides tridactylus inouyei - Yamashina, 1943) - not universally recognized as a separate species. Proposed to be merged with ssp. alpinus.
Range: East central Hokkaido (the northernmost of Japan's prefectures).
Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker (kurodai) (Picoides tridactylus kurodai - Yamashina, 1930) - not universally recognized as a separate species. Proposed to be merged with ssp. alpinus.
Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker (tianschanicus) (Picoides tridactylus tianschanicus - Buturlin, 1907)- not universally recognized as a separate species. Proposed to be merged with ssp. alpinus.
Range: Tien Shan (or Tien Shan) - ,a mountain range located in Central Asia.
Both males and females reach a length of about 7.9 in. (20 cm) and weigh 2.3 oz. (65 g).
The Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker is easily identified since it is the only woodpecker to have a yellow cap. It is also one of only two black and white woodpeckers to lack any red in its feathering. Compared with some of the other woodpecker species, it appears quite dark and black due to the small amount of white on its wings.
The nominate of the species, when viewed from behind, shows a white panel in the shape of a Y and white bars on the sides of head. A black stripe also runs down the neck from the nape to the mantle. White markings are on the throat and chest, and the flanks and lower under-parts are a cream or off-white color blending with some grey markings. These markings appear even more pale when the bird is in flight as the cream-buff underparts become more visible. Its black facial feathers display white markings, and a white superciliary line broadens as it extends back from its dark red iris toward the neck. These markings merge with white markings behind the ear and run down to the mantle.
There is, in addition, a wide, black malar stripe extending from the throat to the breast. Some birds possess a white space between the bottom of the bill and the malar area. The throat and upper breast are white, while the innermost scapulars, lower back, and rump are black. There is a hint of brown in the outer scapulars and upper-tail coverts. The wings are black but less shiny than those on the body. The wing-coverts are often dotted with fine, white markings, while the flight feathers display broader white spots, giving the plumage a barred look. The tail is mostly black, although the outer three rectrices on both sides display spots of white. The long, broad bill is grey with a darker maxilla, and the legs are shaded grey. The northern nominates possess cleaner, brighter white plumage than the southern members of the species.
When viewing the Three-toed Woodpecker, one will notice a compact, solidly built bird whose head is large, neck is short and tail is blunted.
When comparing the male and female, the male's most outstanding feature is his crown; males have a yellow cap which can vary in its coloring. It can range from a bright lemon to a mustard color, and it sometimes contains some black speckling. There may even be some white feathers adorning the crown. The forehead is black with white flecks. The black feathers surrounding the yellow crown are quite glossy.
The female lacks the yellow feathers on its crown; her crown is black with grey or white speckling. This feature facilitates differentiation in the field.
Males display longer black and white bristle feathers around the cere than the females. Also, the males are larger in size and weight and have longer wings, legs, and beaks than the females. These features are an advantage over the female since they allow the male superior foraging and feeding techniques.
The immature male appears quite similar to the adult male. He even sports a yellow crown patch, but it won't be as bright or large as the adult's until maturity. The general plumage contains some brown tones and is more subdued rather than the polished black of the adult.
The feathers on his back show less white than the adults, and there are often some grey markings on the back. The buff ventral feathers contain larger bars than the adults, and the tail is shorter and more wedged. The eyes are closer to pink than the deep red color of the adult's eyes.
The juvenile female looks much the same as the juvenile male. She will sometimes display some yellow on her crown, but the area is smaller and less obvious than that of the adult male.
The Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker resembles the Hairy Woodpeckers, but can be identified by the barred flanks, much darker face and the narrow postocular (facial) stripe.
Black-backed Woodpecker can be differentiated by their entirely black back, postocular (facial) stripe which does not extend down neck, and the entirely white outer tail feathers.
Like most woodpeckers, the Eurasian Three-toed consumes mainly insects; these make up 95% of their diet. They also forage for xylophages (wood-eating insects, such as termites) and their larvae, the bark beetles and wood-boring beetles and their larvae, all of which are found in dying trees with loose bark and soft wood.
The Eurasian Three-toed Woodpecker will nest in a cavity in the trunk of a tree and line the hole with wood fibers or chips.
In central Europe, the birds prefer to breed in old forests, mainly in spruce trees.
Breeding occurs in May up to the beginning of June, after which the female will lay from 3-5 white, round eggs. In central Europe, incubation continues from the middle of May to early of June, about 14 days.
The eggs will hatch at the beginning of June, and by the end of the month the birds will have fledged and left the nest.
Like its cousin, the American Three-toed Woodpecker, the sound made by the Eurasian is a "quap," "pik", "wik," or "quip." He is also secretive, so one will not hear his call too often in the wild.

ESA is a multidisciplinary training and research centre, the fields of expertise of which range from agricultural production to the development of our living environment.
Home	ESAThe school in brief	ESA's values
Its experience: nearly 120 years of history and change
Our history goes back over more than a century. ESA, Ecole Supérieure d'Agricultures, saw the light of day in 1898 with the encouragement of professionals from the rural world in the West of France. They wanted to develop the agricultural sector by creating a school specialised in training engineers in agriculture.
Throughout the 20th century, new development (research, international, etc.) and training (distance teaching, Bac +2, 3 and more study programmes) activities were added to the school's original goals.
Our job is to train women and men, young and adult, from all walks of life who aspire to a higher education or professional qualification, in order to help them to achieve their goals. To this end, our agricultural training centre implements various educational systems that emphasise experience, individual support and moral reflection.
The opening-up: of the West to abroad
ESA is established in Angers in the West of France, the leading agricultural and agri-food region of France. At the regional level, ESA is part of the Université Bretagne Loire. It collaborates of course with the universities of Angers and Nantes, as well as with the grandes écoles of the Pays de la Loire (Oniris, Agrocampus Ouest, etc.). It actively contributes to the plant (Végépolys) and the agri-food (Valorial) competitiveness clusters.
In addition, ESA's CFA (networked apprenticeship training centre) promotes the development of apprenticeships in 22 lycées (higher secondary schools) affiliated with the CNEAP network (Conseil National de l'Enseignement Agricole Privé – National council of private agricultural educational establishments) of the Pays de la Loire.
At the national level, ESA is one of the four private undergraduate and graduate agricultural schools (grandes écoles d'agriculture) that make up FESIA (Fédération des Ingénieurs pour l'alimentation, l'agriculture et l'environnement – French network for Education and Research in Life Sciences). The four schools are ESA in Angers, ISARA in Lyon, ISA in Lille and INP in Toulouse. It is also part of CNEAP, CGE (Conférence des Grandes Ecoles – Conference of Grandes Ecoles) and FESIC (Fédération d'Écoles Supérieures d'Ingénieurs et de Cadres – Federation of Higher Schools of Engineering and Business Studies).
At the international level, ESA is a well-known participant in European exchange programmes (Erasmus +, etc.). Outside of Europe, it collaborates with, for example, China, Brazil, Russia and Argentina and has developed partnerships – of which more than 10 in the area of double qualifications – with 139 universities from all over the world. ESA's international dimension as reflected by its Erasmus + recognised masters' programmes, the 250 international students hosted each year of 35 different nationalities and some ten visiting lecturers give the school its cachet.
The expertise: for all
Since its very beginnings, ESA has sought to be open to all students, adults and companies, and, more generally, to society. The school undertakes applied research in the agricultural and agri-food sectors and trains professionals responsive to contemporary issues. This expertise permeates our training and the research contributes to it.
• In the area of education and training: ESA is different in that it offers all levels of higher education from the Bac to the Doctorate. Several modes of teaching are offered so as to make them available to young people and adults from different walks of life: full-time (initial and continuous), work-study (apprenticeship agreements and professional training contracts), distance learning and validation of professional experience (VAE). Each year, 2,500 students choose to study at ESA and thereby make it one of the leading agricultural higher educational groups in France.
• In the professional area: the largest companies call on ESA for their development (training of employees, orders for research, assistance in recruitment, counselling and special training for employees of foreign subsidiaries, etc.). These constant exchanges allow us to remain always in step with the challenges and realities of the world of work. Nearly 2,000 French and foreign business partners place their trust in us each year.
• In the area of research: from the outset, a pioneer in responsible agriculture, ESA has always been active and forward thinking in order to position itself at the forefront of ideas. This is reflected in the school-business chairs, "Changes in Agriculture" and "Ecologically Intensive Agriculture". Given the growing food needs of mankind, the research work responds to the issues and challenges facing society, such as, for example, learning to produce both more and better by ensuring the renewal of the planet's resources or, with an aging population, guaranteeing elderly people a healthy diet.
Our mission: Feeding the world with intelligence
Feeding the world with intelligence, the huge goal that ESA has given itself as a matter of policy by training young people accordingly and as an undertaking to the food-processing and rural sectors:
To combine training and education, the transmission of knowledge and the initiation to life because the studies involve the whole person.
To train women and men who mobilise their intelligence, imagination, feelings, emotions, passions, physical ability and intuition.
To be open to the world through the versatility of education, training for professional life and international relations.
To be the school of all types of agriculture, those of today and of tomorrow.

How To Run A Digital Label
So you've registered your label and you've got your releases lined up, but what's the next step? DJ, producer and label boss Sharooz guides you through contracts, copyright and collecting your cash.
You may recall our recent article on setting up a digital label. In the second part of the series, label boss, DJ and producer Sharooz, boss of upcoming dance label La Bombe, takes us through the day to day running of a new digital label.
Many musicians choose to set up their own labels. It's a great way of releasing the tracks you love on a timescale that suits you – plus you get to own all your rights. The benefits are seemingly endless.
If you followed the first part of this article you'll hopefully have seen how (relatively!) straightforward it is to get up and running with just a handful of great tunes and some social networking nous.
However, for many a digital label stands as a vehicle for their own productions and normally doesn't extend to bringing in new talent en mass or stepping into third party ventures. This article aims to shed some light on how to expand your burgeoning enterprise and manage its growth.
Sign on the Dotted Line…
The first thing to consider if you're going to bring other artists in is your contractual setup. If you've signed a deal yourself in the past then you may want to base your contract terms on documents you've signed before. But don't rip chunks out of other contracts: your local Musicians' Union or Performing Rights Society should have a sample contract you can use as a basis for your terms. Always use the services of a qualified lawyer to go over the fine print and be prepared to negotiate on some of the points.
Try to be fair – it's not cool to exploit your talent. Remember that terms that work for both parties will stand you in good stead well into the future and are likely to create longstanding working relationships.
A net profit share, equally split, is – finally – becoming the norm in some sectors of the industry, and many labels are happy to work this way. There are plenty of great examples of profit-share recording contracts available online. It's also worth drafting a remix contract and perhaps an LP/Album contract looking in further detail at options and promotions. Last but not least, make sure you have counter-signed copies of all your agreements. Store them carefully. It's surprising how many people forget this…
Manage your Functions
Once you've signed some tracks and scheduled them, you'll need to look at the day-to-day functions of running your outfit.
It's easy to think that your label exists solely to sign tracks, master, promote and sell them on a download portal. But those functions account for a fraction of a label's time – and income.
Remember you're also responsible for generating ISRCs, dealing with Performing Rights bodies (more on this later), co-ordinating artwork, advertising, PR or blogging and generating royalty statements, as well as collecting and paying monies to your artists.
It can be appealing to outsource some of these functions, but it pays to keep an eye on this detail as it will only help grow your and your artists' profile more effortlessly.
Keep a spreadsheet of all your catalogue numbers and devise a tidy system for packaging content and metadata and uploading onto sites.
Ultimately any record label that establishes with a sole view to financial gain is destined to failure. Despite a rising trend in digital music sales, the revenues are rarely enough to cover running costs. The wider industry has had to gear itself towards encompassing other opportunities alongside traditional sales of recorded music to bolster revenues.
Many labels choose to administer publishing for artists (particularly those from territories without strong performing rights organisations). In these cases you as the label can collect mechanical royalties from sales of tracks and pay these to the artist with a commission for your efforts.
You shouldn't limit yourself to just selling tracks online – there is still a burgeoning market for 3rd party licensing, where you can aim to license tracks into big-selling compilations, often still released by the bigger major labels, garnering prime shelf space in supermarkets and high street record stores (yes they still exist!).
For the bigger compilations it's not uncommon to receive a cash advance on sales which can go some way to balancing the books. Many major labels are now signing artists into '360′ deals (more on this below) and if you have the resources and team to pull this off it can be a rewarding avenue for both label and artist.
Lastly, it's always worth looking at opportunities outside the scope of a traditional label – licensing tracks into video games, film or TV projects can pay off handsomely for both label and artist, even if you're not the publisher of the content.
Performing rights organizations are important the world over. They collect money for both label and artist from record sales.
Make sure you register all your tracks with your relevant body. In the UK, PPL collects money for record labels for public performance of music, but only if the label is a member and the tracks are registered on their database.
This income stream starts to build once you have a significant database of tracks – so start cataloging now!
It's also worth noting that between 7-12% of your label income will go to the writer of the track too, so make sure your writers (or you if you're the publisher or writer of the works) are registered with a body such as the MCPS in the UK who collect mechanical copyright monies.
The Full 360
What is a 360 deal? As the name suggests this is where a label owns rights to all the artist's income – from publishing to merchandising and in some cases tour revenues.
It's easy to see why major labels are so fond of these deals. They invest vast sums in artists (many of whom are unknown) at considerable financial risk. They should therefore be able to cash in on all income streams if and when the act breaks – as they're the ones who helped build the brand. (That's the way the argument goes, anyway.)
For a small label a 360 deal can only work if you have the cash and connections to throw behind the artist, but it's unfair on the artist to be relinquishing their stake in so many areas if you don't have the manpower to really deliver.


Kumon learning materials are constantly evolving.
Together, we are always learning from children.
The original Kumon worksheets consisted of math problems written on loose-leaf paper. Toru Kumon wrote out all of the approximately 800 original worksheets by hand. They were truly individualized learning materials and served as the model for the worksheets of today.
Over the years, the number of worksheets has been increased to accommodate a wide range of age-groups and ability levels. Today's worksheets incorporate a finely graduated series of small steps that are designed to enable every student to make smooth progress. The international version of the Kumon math program consists of 4,420 worksheets and ranges from the early learner level all the way up through to high school level math.
The work of Kumon math learning materials developers throughout Kumon is the same all over the world. Continuing to pursue Toru Kumon's vision, materials developers in every country or region learn from students as well as from Instructors. Using that knowledge they ceaselessly strive to further improve the effectiveness of the Kumon worksheets.
Data such as information about students' progress and feedback from Instructors is gathered. Content that requires improvement is examined. Monitor worksheets are developed.
Monitor worksheets are trialed in Centers. A continuous improvement cycle is implemented.
Materials developers from each country and region optimize learning materials for students in Centers in their country or region.
Kumon believes that the most important factor in this process is to find out how the students themselves reacted to the worksheets. Materials developers bring the monitor worksheets that they have created to actual Centers. There, they carefully observe students doing those worksheets.
Materials developers analyze how students handle specific questions and they look carefully at where students have difficulties. Materials developers also gather information from Instructors about what specific parts of the worksheets have given their students the most problems. They use this data to further refine the worksheets. Instructors are very cooperative in this process of enhancement of the materials because they share the desire to help students improve their academic skills and pursue their potential.
The Kumon Math worksheets are the same all over the world. Materials developers from many countries cooperate and work closely together to create the Kumon learning materials. The driving force behind this effort is the strong desire to continuously learn more so that the learning materials can be further improved. Kumon Math learning materials developers, just like Instructors, learn from each other in a process that goes beyond the borders of countries and regions.
Every year the International Mathematics Staff Conference is held and brings together materials developers from all over the globe. At the conference, participants view video clips of students studying the worksheets and engage in lively discussions regarding proper instruction and areas of the worksheets that require revision.
The common vision of all math learning materials developers can be summarized as follows: There are no "perfect" learning materials. We must always ask ourselves how we can best help each student in each Center. It is our duty to continually look for ways to make our learning materials more effective. And, we must never stop learning from our colleagues.


On June 26, 2017, the Attorney General of Ontario announced proposed changes to Ontario's Ticket Speculation Act. The Ticket Speculation Act governs the resale of tickets to events such as music, sports and theatrical events. The proposed changes are intended to give fans a fair chance to attend such events and were spurred in part by the outcry over the tragically high secondary market ticket prices for the Tragically Hip's final show last year.
In 2015, the Ontario Legislature amended the Ticket Speculation Act, making it legal to resell tickets above their original face value. These amendments have proved unpopular with Ontarians and have resulted in increased ticket prices, according to a recent survey conducted by the Attorney General.
The proposed changes include measures to increase transparency for consumers, ensure fans can access tickets from primary sellers, and strengthen the enforcement regime.
all ticket-selling businesses to disclose the all-in price (including currency) of a ticket up front.
capping the resale price of tickets at 50 per cent above face value.
allowing the police to investigate and charge individuals caught using automated ticket-buying software.
The full extent of the proposed changes and their potentially significant impact – including specifically the creation of rights of action – will be clearer when the Attorney General introduces legislation this fall to amend the Ticket Speculation Act.

Rwanda denounces presence of Ugandan soldiers on its soil
August 14, 2020 Pawla Nibramich News, Zoom 0
The conflict between Rwanda and Uganda has witnessed a new turning point with Kigali denouncing the fraudulent entry of Ugandan troops onto its territory.
The conflict between Rwanda and Uganda is far from reaching its end. On August 12, the Rwandan government, through its Minister of Foreign Affairs, Vincent Biruta, expressed concern about the presence of soldiers from the Ugandan People's Defense Force (UPDF) on its soil.
In an interview with local media, Vincent Biruta indicated that these Ugandan soldiers are the authors of several kidnappings of Rwandan citizens since their entry in the country last July.
"We can also say that there were indeed incidents at the border where Rwandan security agents shot Ugandan smugglers, who were violently resisting arrest by the security forces, after entering Rwanda illegally. This is not new, it is an old story and it has been reported and you have also seen in recent weeks many incidents of the UPDF entering Rwanda, kidnapping Rwandans to bring them to Uganda, with a view to demand ransoms for their release," he said.

Q: How to enable a systemd unit template for boot-time execution? I have a server to launch at system boot time using a Yocto compatible file system on an embedded target.  The file system uses systemd for its service system.
My server uses a systemd template unit file, and I am having trouble getting it enabled. We use the template to supply a full path name of a sqlite database file that the server uses. The template unit file is named:
/lib/systemd/system/TDI_DataServer@.service

Its contents:
[Unit]
    Description=Data Server application (with DB=%I)
    After=syslog.target
[Service]
    Type=simple
    ExecStart=/opt/ndc/DataServer --DEBUG --databaseFile=%I
    Restart=always
    RestartSec=2
[Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target

The database file is in /var/lib/ndc/DataServer.DB, so I created a symbolic link in /lib/systemd/system:
# ln -s TDI_DataServer@.service TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.DB.service

When I run:
# systemctl start TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.DB

The server launches with the correct parameter, finds the database, and executes in the background as expected. So I tried to enable the service template so that it will launch the service during system boot-time:
# systemctl enable TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.DB
    Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory

Since that failed, I tried enabling the template file itself:
# systemctl enable TDI_DataServer@
    ln -s '/lib/systemd/system/TDI_DataServer@.service''/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/TDI_DataServer@.service'

On the surface, the system seems happy, but at boot time, systemd does not execute the launch of TDI_DataServer correctly. It seems to supply the "multi-user" parameter (maybe from the WantedBy target in the unit file?) to the unit file.
Here is the systemctl status:
$ systemctl status -l TDI*
    ● TDI_DataServer@multi-user.service - Data Server application (with DB=multi/user)

● TDI_DataServer.service
       Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/TDI_DataServer)
       Active: inactive (dead)

Am I missing something?  Any help would be much appreciated.

A: It appears there is indeed a bug in the systemctl parsing of the %I parameter supplied to the unit file.  As stated above, the following command fails:
# systemctl enable TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.DB

However, if I change the name of our database file in /var/lib/ndc from "DataServer.DB" to "DataServer.db" (i.e. lowercase after the dot,) and I issue the following command:
# systemctl enable TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.db

...everything works fine.  The symbolic link gets created in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants, and on the next reboot of the system, our DataServer service finds its database and runs happily.
I've notified our third party file system provider about this.  It's probably something the folks at Yocto and the maintainers of systemd would be interested in.

A: Instead of
# systemctl enable TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.DB

try
# systemctl enable TDI_DataServer@-var-lib-ndc-DataServer.DB.service

I know that current systemd supports either but I'm guessing that at some point you had to be explicit with the .service portion and that's what you're running into here.  Saying what Yocto version the filesystem is based on would help here, thanks!

Stanford Scientists Uncover Ancient 'Super Highways' to Boost Valley Groundwater Recharge
Latest Local Water
Stanford Scientists Uncover Ancient 'Super Highways' to Boost Valley Groundwater Recharge
SJV Water
Data was collected on helicopter flights over the Kings River alluvial fan, south and east of Fresno below Pine Flat Dam. (KRCD)
In the chronically overpumped San Joaquin Valley, groundwater recharge can't happen fast enough. And researchers at Stanford University have found underground highways that could put recharge into the fast lane.
Jesse Vad
In a new paper released Thursday, scientists show that airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveys flown with helicopters can locate ancient underground passageways, called paleochannels. Scientists and water managers alike say this finding could have significant impacts on how water is recharged in the valley.
That's because these specific types of paleochannels, called incised valley fill deposits, are made up of unusually coarse materials, which means water can move quickly through the channels.

Carving Out Pathways
About 16,000 years ago, the Sierra Nevada mountain range was covered in glaciers. As those glaciers melted, powerful streams carved out channels and filled them with coarse gravels and sands until the valley floor as we know it was formed. Those channels still exist beneath the surface but finding them has been a challenge.
In the past, researchers drilled holes to find the paleochannels. But that was extremely laborious and only gave information about each drilled site.
"You don't know what's going on between the wells," said Rosemary Knight, professor of geophysics at Stanford and lead author of the new paper. "The idea of marching along the eastern edge of the Central Valley punching wells, looking for these deposits, it's not feasible."
The AEM technology, on the other hand, is able to locate and illustrate a far more comprehensive model of the paleochannels.
AEM works by hanging a transmitter device below a helicopter which penetrates the ground with an electromagnetic field. Currents below the ground then send a signal back up to the device which scientists can use to get an understanding of the materials underground.
The Charge to Recharge
The research comes at a time when groundwater recharge is a hot topic in the valley.
Groundwater levels have plummeted across the Valley as surface supplies imported from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta have been restricted for environmental needs and farmers turned to groundwater for irrigation. At the same time, acreage dedicated to permanent crops, such as almonds and grapes exploded across the valley requiring year-round irrigation.
Two severe, multi-year droughts over the last decade have only compounded the problem.
The overpumping has caused subsidence (sinking land) and entire communities have lost access to water as aquifer levels dropped to record lows.
A new state law has taken effect, limiting groundwater pumping with the goal of replenishing and stabilizing groundwater levels by 2040. Recharge is one of the primary methods many water agencies and farmers hope to use to reach that goal. There isn't a lot of "excess" water available for recharge, other than occasional flood flows on valley rivers.
So, the stakes are high for getting the most bang out of every drop dedicated to recharge.
Flights for the new study were completed back in 2020. Data was collected on flight paths over the Kings River alluvial fan, south and east of Fresno starting below Pine Flat Dam.
It took two years to produce a definitive answer about the flights because of due diligence on the study and pandemic-related delays, said Knight.
"You can think about it as being similar to our engineered infrastructure with our aqueducts and our irrigation canals and our irrigation ditches," said Knight. "We've got this natural infrastructure underground that we can't see unless you use your AEM data."
The speed at which water can move through the paleochannels can be much faster than other areas, said Graham Fogg, professor emeritus of hydrogeology at UC Davis and one of the authors of the new paper.
Fogg worked on an analysis of the speed of recharging water through paleovalleys in Sacramento County. In that paleovalley, the recharge rate was about 60 times faster than surrounding areas, said Fogg. The rate will vary case by case, he added.
But water doesn't just move through one underground deposit. The passageways are part of an underground network of channels that can spread water throughout the east side of the valley.
"You get the water into this fast path, it's heading down," said Knight. "But it can also spread laterally through the connections of all the other paleochannels that were established over time."
The aquifer system is, in some ways, similar to the human circulatory system, explained Fogg.
"In your body, you've got arteries and veins that make up a minority of your body's volume. But that's where the fluids in your body move the fastest. And then the rest of your body also has a lot of fluid and water, but that's mostly in the soft tissues," said Fogg. "In these aquifer systems, it's kind of like that."

Regional Benefit
If water is recharged into an upper part of a paleochannel, it can influence groundwater pressures and levels in a large area in the overall aquifer network, said Fogg.
"I'm too excited about this (research) to stop." — Stanford University geophysics professor Rosemary Knight
That could be beneficial for small communities surrounded by agriculture. In these towns, many households have lost access to water as private wells ran dry because of surrounding agricultural pumping.
"You don't have to be above one of the deposits to benefit from them," said Fogg. "If you create recharge projects and focus them on these locations, where the recharge rate can be tens of times higher than in other locations, there's strong potential for regional benefit."
The research and use of AEM would be best suited for finding recharge potential in nontraditional recharge areas, said Kassy Chauhan, executive director of the North Kings groundwater sustainability agency (GSA.)
"It's a tool in the toolbox," said Chauhan. "Where I see the most use is in this area, the northeast portion of the North Kings GSA boundary where I don't have real clear defined recharge potential."
Chauhan said she could use this technology to locate sites for recharge projects in coordination with Fresno County.
The potential to use paleovalleys doesn't extend to the west side of the valley because that area wasn't glaciated so it doesn't have the same pathways underground. In theory, the paleovalleys on the east side extend to the central axis of the valley, said Fogg.
California's Department of Water Resources has also invested in AEM technology testing to better understand the San Joaquin Valley's underground makeup.
And for Knight, the research won't stop here. She plans on continuing with AEM research, particularly to look at the state's data collection.
"I'm too excited about this to stop," said Knight.

Cisco Meraki Access Points can use either dynamic (DHCP) or static IP configuration to connect to a network. Although DHCP is recommended, you may configure a static IP address on a Cisco Meraki AP either from the Dashboard or locally on the device.
Note: This method requires that the AP is an active gateway. This means that the AP needs to be online in Dashboard and have either an active DHCP lease or a currently functioning static IP address. This method does not work for devices acting as repeaters.
Browse to dashboard.meraki.com and login to Dashboard.
Navigate to Wireless > Monitor > Access Points and click the name of the AP you would like to configure.
On the device status page, click the Edit icon to the right of the current IP information to expand the configuration for that device.
Input the appropriate connection information and click the "Save" button.
As soon as the AP updates its' configuration to include the new static IP it will attempt to use that IP on the network. If the AP is not able to reach the configured default gateway on this static assignment, it will fail back to DHCP. Please inspect the static configuration and the VLAN configuration being used on the network if this happens.
Note: If a VLAN is specified in the static IP configuration, management traffic from the AP will be sent out with an 802.1q tag for that VLAN. In this case it is expected that return Management traffic should also be tagged appropriately.
Connect to the Access Point and open the Local Status Page.
The page should now prompt for login credentials. If local login credentials were configured via Dashboard, please use these credentials. Otherwise, the default login is the device's serial number as the username and a blank password.
Please note that your wireless connection to the device may be interrupted if the AP is in a scanning mode, causing it to change its channel. Before saving any changes you may wish to verify you are still connected to the correct SSID and AP.
The MR12, MR58, MR52, and MR53 include a secondary LAN port to connect to the network with, however only the Primary Ethernet port can have a Static IP configured.
The primary Ethernet port is directly adjacent to the power connector and is labeled as Uplink.
The primary Ethernet port is located on the bottom-left side of the AP and is labeled as ETH0.
The labeled "PoE" accepts 802.3at and 802.3af power and should be used as the primary uplink to your LAN/WAN.
Note: Link aggregation is only supported on the MR52/53.
This interface is capable of receiving power using PoE and can be assigned a static IP address. It is also capable of 10/100/1000Mbps speeds. It is intended for connecting the MR12 to the rest of the network.
This interface can only receive an IP from DHCP and is not able to receive power using PoE. It is only capable of 10/100 speeds. It is still able to connect to the Meraki Cloud Controller if the Primary connection is down, but is intended for used by a wired client. To allow use by a wired client, please refer to our documentation regarding Extending the LAN with a Wireless Mesh Link.
The simplest way to determine which port is being used is to physically look at the device, and refer to the diagrams above. If you are not near the device, the easiest way to determine if the secondary port is being used is by looking at the AP Dashboard. Navigate to Monitor > Access points and click the AP in question. Look under Status for LAN IP #. If the # = 1, then the AP is connected using the primary port. If # = 2, then the AP is connected using its secondary port.
For more information about configuring a new MR Access Point, please check out our MR Quick Start article.

Man Sees Wife Without Makeup On For The First Time And Divorces Her
You find out a lot about a person after getting married. One 30-year-old man in United Arab Emirates discovered his new bride wore a lot of makeup and when he saw her without, he didn't like what he saw...so he filed for divorce.
After going swimming, the unnamed man realized his 24-year-old wife wore a lot of make-up, had cosmetic surgery and wore false eyelashes and colored contacts. The groom claims he was "tricked by her artificial beauty."
Dr. Abdul Aziz Asaf, a psychologist who talked to the bride after the split, says the groom "immediately divorced his bride and refused any attempt to reunite them again."

From This Author TV Scoop


There are many ways to see these questions, so do you take them seriously or provide easy answers with "Googliness".
Many of you have probably seen the article from INC. Business Insider going around titled, "41 of Google's Toughest Interview Questions". If you haven't read the questions, I would give it a read and see how you hold up against their questions.
In this article, I am going to break down some of the questions and ways to approach them. First off, you would be applying for GOOGLE a company that is known to take things seriously, but also Googley. They actually want you to have Googliness. Second, it's Google, not your local hardware store.
Do you answer the questions with extreme detail to show your intellect capability?
Do you answer the with ease and Googliness?
Do you try and find a nice median between the first two styles?
All of these styles of answering have pros and cons. So I am breaking down the "some" of the questions and providing a few ways to approach them. You will also see that many of the questions are very open ended and open to multiple forms of interpretation. Some even reach out on a personal level and it could be a determination of your overall character. In this case, attempting to impress them with a flamboyant answer will be a waste of time! Lastly, when reading the question, look at the job position that the person was applying for, that will affect the answer that you should provide.
People use flowers for funerals and people are always going to die at some point (said with kindness but the truth).
However, which one sheds a more positive thought? Clearly, the Flower Shop.
Keep in mind, without market research you won't know for sure.
Theoretically, there is no material object that is ultimately and truly perfect. That said, a coin is a material object and can't express a bias. However, given any off size, shapeshift, or weight loss could change the flip rate. However, no matter how you look at it, there are two probable answers, heads or tails, 50/50 chance each time, but something that you cannot control. However, do not take the 50/50 to literally, the odds of you flipping a coin 100 times or 1000 times and splitting the heads and tails 50-50 or 500-500 perfectly is likly improbable!
If you are not a prankster, this is the point where you should think about we you are applying to, they want something who can be down to earth. However, knowing or even reviewing the person that you would be pranking online would be highly beneficial. Do a profile read on the person and you have your prank. However, I doubt they would let you search for the person, so ask for a picture ha, overall staff photo could tell you a lot. Look at their stance, hands, smile, hair, teeth, hygiene and so on. All of this will tell you the kind of prank you should pull.
Another open-ended question! Where is the bridge, what demographic surrounds it, how big is it, what is the weight limit or highest amount of cars that it can hold at any given moment and so on. All of these might be remotely helpful in answering this question.
Ex. #1 – bridge in the middle of nowhere to cross a stream of water in Kansas, probably less than a 100 a day.
You can see one will obviously be traveled more, but without any detail, you are basically just randomly guessing.
So devise a plan of how to figure out the answer and then provide a rough (random) guess, aka – Use the Force!
Lastly, this blog post is NOT FINISHED, but I figured that I would post it now. I will be providing answers to the rest of the unanswered questions later.
Also, please understand that I am not a Google employee and this post only reflects my opinions.


1. The weather finally decided to warm up around here! I popped on a romper the other day and decided I actually liked them. I may invest in a few more this summer!
2. I've recently started snacking all the time instead of eating big meals. I love fruit especially as we head into the summertime.
3. I just moved across time and finally got my life more organized. My girl, Lauren, helped me get rid of about 200 pieces of clothing. It was absolutely ridiculous how much I owned, so thankfully she helped me purge a lot!
4. Lauren and Kate came over to my house for an evening. They were buck wild and silly as can be.
We went out for ice cream afterwards because who can say no to ice cream. Clearly, not me.
5. I went out to Starbucks last night to meet up with someone. It was funny because we were sitting next to a 17 year girl who kept trying to get my attention while I was in the middle of chatting. As we were leaving, she stopped me to tell me that she thought I was drop dead gorgeous. It was really random, but incredibly sweet. It reminded me of all the reasons why we need to be extra kind to one another!
I need to purge my closet too. That ice cream looks yummy! Popping over from Life Rearranged.


Much of my work deals with reusing materials cast off by society.
Plastic bags have been cut and hand spun to create a yarn that is woven into a thin strip. This strip is then cut and rewoven on a stretcher to create the finished work.

Briefly: Crowd celebrates bartender's 75th
Efren Bonner 12:00 am, Dec 01, 2008
40 people converged on Rudy's Bar and Grill Sunday afternoon to celebrate bartender Leo "Big Daddy" Vigue's 75th birthday. The bar was packed with friends, family and even former Yalies who have known Vigue during his 45-year tenure at Rudy's. Andrea Hallier '95 came to the party to spend time with Vigue, who is practically part of her family, she said. After meeting Vigue as an undergraduate, Hallier said she formed a close friendship with the bartender, who would later give her away at her wedding. "I didn't know anything about this party," Vigue said. "It just goes to show that when you have good friends they always come back."

Railways signs MoU with Ahmedabad University to preserve its Heritage
23 Jun 2017 in Category(ies): Author railPosted on 23/06/2017 23/06/2017 Categories Indian Railway Institute Of Civil Engineering (IRICEN), Pune, WR-Ahmedabad Division
As part of the agreement, the institutes will engage in a series of activities to build the capacity of railway personnel by integrating heritage perspectives in their training and work practices.
AHMEDABAD: To conserve, preserve and manage the Indian Railways' old and rich heritage, the Centre for Heritage Management (CHM) at Ahmedabad University (AU) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Indian Railways Institute of Civil Engineering (IRICEN).
The MoU aims to establish a long–term partnership in knowledge generation and collaboration. As part of the agreement, the institutes will engage in a series of activities to build the capacity of railway personnel by integrating heritage perspectives in their training and work practices.
The collaboration is also aimed at integrating 'Heritage Management' in the academic curriculum of IRICEN, wherein CHM will actively work towards developing training modules and course components to be imparted to railway officers for creating awareness about railway heritage.
Professor Devanath Tirupati, in-charge of CHM, said, "The MoU provides research opportunities for faculty and students of AU on heritage-related themes associated with Indian Railways."


Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt is one of the best known authors in the French-speaking world and was thus a natural choice to create a French-language play based on the story of Anne Frank. His attention to detail brings to life the horrors of the Nazi regime and the Holocaust, but through the added lens of Freud, Mozart and Diderot, Schmitt also speaks to the deeper truths that are revealed in extreme circumstances.

The Maremma Park, with its range of hills descending towards the sea to reach the sandy beaches and cliffs, spreads from the mouth of the Ombrone River till it reaches Talamone, along 25km of the breathtaking Tuscan coastline surrounded by marshland, pinewood forests, tilled land and pastures. With the scent of aromatic herbs and colorful berries and the cry of its wildlife, the park greats visitors unveiling both its gentle and primitive nature. A clash of elements which awakens the need to be pampered in a newfound paradise. A chance to "set the clock back," in tune with the soul.
Brooms, cists and rosemary alternate with bush and woods of secular juniper. At the end of the path, the marvelous Cala di Forno bay unfolds, rewarding visitors with an unforgettable view overlooking the sea after the long walk.
Educational itinerary where you will find many typical plants of the Mediterranean bush. Especially pleasant is a path crossing the beautiful secular cork and oak forests where you will easily find herds of fallow deer.
This itinerary is easy yet bound to offer the visitor a variety of sounds, colors and scents. From the green Grand Duchy pine wood forest visitors will reach the broad marsh expansions which embrace the last section of the Ombrone river. A stopover at the birdwatching post will allow visitors to discover the different bird species which inhabit the park's wetlands.
Departing from Punta del Corvo, the itinerary reaches an ancient customs road. Cists and rosemary are found along the path which later gets lost into the thick bush. The small Cannelle bay greets the visitor with its crystal clear waters and its breathtaking view over the Park's coastline.
