Monthly Playlist: Jan. 2022
2022 is well underway with new albums from The Weeknd, FKA twigs, Mitski and more. We've already covered our picks for the most anticipated albums (that we know of) in 2022. Below, we take a closer look at the top five songs of January. Read on and let us know your thoughts!
"Strung with Everything" by Animal Collective
Animal Collective released their new album Time Skiffs in the early days of February. Prior to the album release, the experimental pop group released three singles: "Walker" and "Prester John" earlier in 2021, and the new track "Strung with Everything" in January. The song begins with a slow build-up that introduces key motifs – randomized percussion, the meandering keyboard melody, and the echoing guitar notes. Suddenly, amidst the meditative elements, the song bursts into full focus, complete with surf-rock style drums, guitars and vocals. Although "Strung with Everything" could have used tighter editing (meandering at almost 7 minutes long), the track highlights Animal Collective's career-long skills at walking the line between commercial and experimental.
"papi bones" by FKA twigs feat. Shygirl
"papi bones" is an energetic Afro pop-tinged track from FKA twigs' January mixtape entitled CAPRISONGS (full review here). The track highlights the British pop star's sensibilities at arranging a song for maximum impact: hype-men introducing a club-friendly beat, a sparse dancehall-esque couple of verses from FKA twigs, and finally a joint verse between her and the excellent Shygirl. Readers will recall that we loved British artist Shygirl's collaboration with another nouveau British export – slowthai – last year, and her energy is just as plucky and vivacious here. All in all, "papi bones" is a fun and infectious track that's a perfect starting point for FKA twigs' new mixtape.
"Jackie Down the Line" by Fontaines DC
We talked about this new track from Irish post-punk band in our recent roundup of 2022's most anticipated albums, and for good reason – "Jackie Down the Line" is a great track that heralds the beginning of the band's Skinty Fia era. Fontaines DC has proven that they're an act that keeps busy, quickly following up their 2019 debut Dogrel with the well-received A Hero's Death in 2020. But don't think they're just churning out run-of-the-mill tracks: the band has used both albums to build up a definitive Fontaines DC sound. What does this sound consist of? Well, there's the fulsome drum beats, rumbling basslines, and (more than anything), lead singer Grian Chatten's unapologetically Irish vocals – lyricism, accent, idioms and all. "Jackie Down the Line" is a continuation of this same style. In typically Chatten style, the lyrics are poetic, somber and rather difficult to decipher; but we gather that it's a meditation of the loss of Irish culture (a common theme in the band's lyrics) as represented by "Jackie" or Jackeens – Irish fans of the Union Jack.
"Sacrifice" by The Weeknd
Although The Weeknd's new album Dawn FM failed to blow us away (full review here), there were certainly a couple of bright spots on the track-list. One, of course, is the masterpiece that is "Take My Breath" (even better on the album's extended version), but we already knew that. Of the new songs that were introduced on the album this month, "Sacrifice" really stands out. Here, Abel utilizes a chunky, disco bassline and funky modulations on his vocals, all resulting in a catchy addition to the megastar's dance-pop repertoire. You'll be humming this song in no time.
"Postman" by Toro y Moi
"Postman" is a funky, fun track that was released alongside the announcement of Mahal, the seventh album from American lo-fi dance-rock proponent Toro y Moi. Musically, "Postman" is almost like a stripped-down Pharrell song, pairing a bouncy bass and catchy drums with semi-sung vocals – think something along the lines of a very chillwave "Blurred Lines". The music video is equally fun and plays homage to Toro y Moi's Filipino heritage – definitely check it out.

The Weeknd – Dawn FM
Superstardom was always a strange fit for The Weeknd, but Dawn FM is him conceding all the best parts of his music for it. Trading R&B for disco-pop isn't necessarily a bad thing and he gets some good music out of it but the result is his weakest album yet.
The style works well for things like the extended and extremely danceable "Take My Breath." It's absolutely top-tier synth-pop and Abel gets to use his voice to its full effect in it. Similarly, "Best Friend" is a very good song and an excellent showcase for just how well The Weeknd can sing.
Going disco has highlights, but substituting it for the previous R&B really hurts something like "Less Than Zero" which ends up simply boring and bland. He's also lost a lot of his edge here. He glories far less in self-destruction now that he's won a Kids Choice Award.
Even something like the still quite good "Is There Someone Else" doesn't carry the emotion that he once brought to bear. There's no bite to this album. He's much less scary and less debauched than he once was. I like what Wayne does in "I Heard You're Married" and Abel has moments in there too, but it has replaced his razor blades with safety scissors. Also, while I love Jim Carrey, the interludes are the kind of bad poetry I expect at amateur singalongs.
The strangest thing is that The Weeknd has always been an artist defined by singles and not albums and this album has no single for me to really come back to. Dawn FM does come together in a way that none of his previous albums ever really came close to doing but that doesn't do enough without the musical peaks that he once had. There used to be gold with the dross. Dawn FM is instead a pretty consistent bronze.

If you've been following our Monthly Playlist series throughout the year, then you're probably familiar with most of the songs on this list. The songs below cover the gamut across rock, pop, blues and more– take a spin below and let us know what you think!
5. "Boilermaker" by Royal Blood
Clocking in at #5 is the hard-hitting collaboration between British two-piece Royal Blood and desert rock veteran Josh Homme. Royal Blood's 2021 album Typhoons was somewhat of a hit-or-miss effort (read our full review here), but the best part of the album is undeniably this high-wire track. "Boilermaker" is heavy, energetic, and comes with a fun music video – one of the best rock tracks of the year.
Read more in our Monthly Playlist.
4. "The Hardest Cut" by Spoon
Speaking of great rock tracks – in our opinion, the best one of the year is "The Hardest Cut", the first single from Austin, Texas band Spoon's upcoming Lucifer on the Sofa album. With its thick bass lines, rangy vocals and dance-rock beats, this is by far one of the catchiest songs we've heard all year. If this is an indication of what the rest of the new album is going to sound like, then we sure are in for a treat.
3. "Oxytocin" by Billie Eilish
It's funny – Billie has been releasing singles for her sophomore album Happier Than Ever for a full year before the album released in July 2021, but the best song on the album (and one of the best songs of the year) is the electro-pop non-single banger "Oxytocin". The song brings together all the best parts about the Billie Eilish act – breathy vocals, out-of-this-world production from her brother Finneas, and a general feeling of devilish provocation.
2. "Take My Breath" by the Weeknd
At this point, the Weeknd probably does the 80s better than musicians in the actual 80s. "Take My Breath" is another synth-disco killer track that sits right at the junction between the classic 80s sound and a transition into the Britney-inspired 90s era. This is the first song from what is ostensibly the "Dawn era" (naturally coming after his After Hours era), perhaps signifying a new album from the Canadian singer in 2022. Here's hoping!
1. "INDUSTRY BABY" by Lil Nas X feat. Jack Harlow
The best song of the year comes from the debut album of Lil Nas X, but he's far from a debut artist. The man has been racking up great tracks nonstop since his worldwide hit "Old Town Road" but "INDUSTRY BABY" is potentially his best track yet. The fanfare horns throughout the track signify a self-coronation for one of the biggest hitmakers of our time, who's especially unique in the sense that he's truly a self-made man.
Looking for more great tracks? Here are our runners-up for the top songs of the year, in alphabetical order:
"brutal" by Olivia Rodrigo
"Crawling Kingsnake" by the Black Keys
"Rumors" by Lizzo feat. Cardi B
"Solar Power" by Lorde
"Trouble in Paradise" by the F16s

Monthly Playlist: Aug. 2021
Better late than never, we always say. We may be a little late with our Monthly Playlist for August 2021, but we now have the goods for you below. Check out our top five picks below!
5. "Walking at a Downtown Pace" by Parquet Courts
Parquet Courts is a four-piece hailing from New York City by way of Texas, where Andrew Savage met Austin Brown. The two share lead vocals and guitar duties in the band, with Andrew's brother Max on the drums and Sean Yeaton on bass rounding out the group. In the past, we favorably compared their third album Sunbathing Animal to the Strokes' debut album (albeit edgier), and this new track from the band has the same NYC effortless-cool that enthralled us then. "Walking at a Downtown Pace" has a driving guitars that reminded us of Led Zep's "When the Levee Breaks", and a sing-along chorus that is going to do wonders in trendy venues in Brooklyn and around the world. This is the second track from the band's upcoming seventh (!) album Sympathy for Life, scheduled to release on October 22nd.
4. "Meanwhile" by Gorillaz feat. Jelani Blackman & Barrington Levy
Three-quarters of a year after the near-perfect Song Machine, Damon Albarn is back with his virtual band and canny artist features with a new, three-song Gorillaz EP entitled Meanwhile. As we found out over the course of the Song Machine tracklist, Albarn is turning into a premier launchpad of talented British rappers to audiences outside of the UK; and that trend continues on the title track from this mini-album. London-based up-and-coming rapper Jelani Blackman's catchy, sing-song style gels well with the dancehall stylings of Jamaican legend Barrington Levy. Throughout it all, Albarn lends his aloof vocals and his unique ability to meld all the disparate pieces into a great new track. If this is gearing up to Song Machine Vol. 2, we're all for it. And if you liked this, check out "Jimmy Jimmy" from the same EP!
3. "Rumors" by Lizzo feat. Cardi B
"They don't know, I do it for the culture, goddamn / They say I should watch the shit I post, oh goddamn / Say I'm turning big girls into hoes, oh goddamn / They say I get groupies at my shows, oh goddamn," intones Lizzo at the start of her new track "Rumors", listing out all the supposedly bad things that she's been rumored to do. Nothing beats the humor of the first time you listen to the track, where she immediately follows up this verse with "All the rumors are true, yeah / What ya' heard, that's true, yeah". This is a larger-than-life, catchy as hell track from two of pop culture's reigning hit-masters that speaks to the incessant rumors at that level of public spotlight. Cardi B joins in with her own set: "Fake ass, fake boobs, yeah / Made a million at [strip club] Sue's, yeah," and the general vibe of the song is that these ladies just don't care anymore about what's being said of them on social media or gossip rags. Musically, "Rumors" is peak Lizzo, complete with funky synths and a rollicking horn section. One last thing: the music video is a modern take on the Disney movie Hercules, with Lizzo and a very pregnant Cardi, and should belong in an art museum somewhere for its extremely high production values alone.
Technically, this song came out in the very last hours of July 2021 and hence didn't make it into our July playlist, but we couldn't not include it in this one. "Oxytocin" is one of the non-single tracks that were released as part of Billie's highly-anticipated sophomore album Happier Than Ever. We'll have the full album review out for you shortly, but this electro-pop song is definitely one of the highlights from the track-list. Finneas (Billie's brother-slash-producer extraordinaire) really knocks it out of the park with this one. The lone beat at the start builds into a cornucopia of bits and beeps that adds a manic energy to the track – fittingly, for lyrics that lay bare her addictive relationship to her partner. Speaking of Billie's lyrics, the singer takes the risqué factor from her debut album to a different level on this track about toxic addiction: for example, "'Cause as long as you're still breathing / Don't you even think of leaving" in the verses and the repeated "I wanna do bad things to you / I wanna make you yell" in the outro. "Oxytocin" is the kind of track that hooks you from the first second of the first listen, but it's Billie's creepy lyrics (in both delivery and meaning) that keep you hooked.
A couple of months ago at the Billboard Music Awards, The Weeknd accepted yet another popular music award with a somewhat cryptic message: "I just want to say, the After Hours are done and the dawn is coming". In early August, the Canadian R&B phenomenon released the electro-dance record "Take My Breath", signifying what he's taken to calling The Dawn era. We have some clues about what this is going to be like, and boy it's good. "Take My Breath" is a non-stop dance party that has the potential to be remixed into a million other dance tracks. A week after this song was released, The Weeknd compiled a list of songs that inspired "the new Dawn era" on his Apple podcast / radio show Memento Mori (yes, he has an Apple show) and readers – the list included not one but two Britney Spears songs. Here's hoping that "Take My Breath" was our introduction into an upcoming electronic music-inspired 90s-throwback pop record from the Weekend!

Monthly Playlist: Jun. 2021
We are officially halfway through 2021 – somehow that feels too short yet not long enough. It's been a rough year for some, a better year for others, but no matter where you are in life, these five tunes are sure to set your daily life on pause, even if for just a little bit.
5. "You Right" by Doja Cat feat. The Weeknd
Honestly, we are surprised that it took this long for Doja Cat and The Weeknd to collab. Both of these massively popular artists have a similar low-key, 80s-influenced vibe, and the confluence plays perfectly on this surprisingly poppy track from Doja's new album Planet Her. Doja Cat carries the bulk of the first half of the track with her slightly raspy rapping style, and then The Weeknd steps in for his trademark wavering vocals. The entire track is a back-and-forth between two folks who are still in love (or at least lust), despite the fact that one of them is in a relationship. A tale as old as time, but not a bad version overall.
4. "LAW OF AVERAGES" by Vince Staples
Most people would have heard LA-based rapper Vince Staples from his star turn w hen a remixed version of his song "BagBak" soundtracked the landmark trailer for Black Panther. Since then, Vince has released his third studio album FM! in 2019, and is now set to release his next album – apparently self-titled Vince Staples – sometime in 2021. The first track from the new album is "LAW OF AVERAGES", a meditative, slow-burn of a rap track that covers everything from bad friends to the heaviness of sudden wealth. You're hooked from the first line: "Fuck a friend, I don't want no friends with no open hands / Count my bands, all alone at home, don't you call my phone / Everyone that I've ever known asked me for a loan."
3. "Lost Cause" by Billie Eilish
The latest single from Billie's upcoming sophomore album Happier Than Ever is very much on brand with the image that she's beginning to cultivate. Earlier this year, Billie unveiled a newer, more adult, more body-confident version of herself, one that has outgrown the teenage angst and errors of her Apple TV documentary-era self. "Lost Cause" is a sneering goodbye to an ex that, in hindsight, was just not good enough for her. As always, props to Finneas' fantastic, trip-hop production that amps up the cool detachment in her vocals.
2. "Venus Fly Trap" by MARINA
Welsh singer-songwriter MARINA (Marina Diamandis) has been leading up to her fifth album Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land for quite some time. Back in November 2020, we loved her track "Man's World", which was apparently the first single from this new album. Like most of Marina's songs, "Venus Fly Trap" features her throaty vocals and a distinctive sense of outsider self-awareness that's very unusual for a pop artist. "I never quite fit in to that Hollywood thing / I didn't play that game for the money or the fame / I did it my way, baby / Nothing in this world could change me," she boasts – although you could be forgiven for not paying much attention to the lyrics on this dance-pop track.
1. "Solar Power" by Lorde
Lorde is back! The young New Zealand singer first burst onto the scene with her debut album Pure Heroine, featuring the smash hit "Royals". We quite liked her sophomore effort Melodrama as well, so we were excited to learn about her new track "Solar Power", from the eponymous upcoming album. What we love about this track is the totally synchronous sunny vibe, from the title to the subject matter ("I hate the winter, can't stand the cold… But when the heat comes, something takes a hold") to Lorde's bright yellow outfit on a sunny beach. This is a summer ditty about the simpler things in life, which hits particularly well after the bracing past year or two that most folks have had.

Monthly Playlist: Mar. 2020
March 2020 will forever be known in the history books as the month that COVID-19 really stuck its hypothetical flag into Earth. Over a billion people are now in quarantine, leading to stranger-than-fiction outcomes like kindergarten classes over Zoom. There is, however, one silver lining to this whole scenario: humanity's ability to find artistic outlets seems to have gotten sharper. Either that, or this was just independently a really good month for music. Read on for our top five tracks this month – and stay safe!
"just a boy" by Alaina Castillo
Houston, Texas-based Alaina Castillo has been making her moves for a while now. Castillo shot to fame the new-school way, by racking up a massive YouTube following, before transitioning into her first traditional EP (2019's antisocial butterfly). Three months into the year, the English-Spanish bilingual singer has already released five singles but it's "just a boy" that may just give her the mainstream break-out she deserves. The song features Alaina's silky smooth, pitch-perfect vocals that can give Ariana Grande a run for her money, layered over stripped-down guitar work. It's the best of pop: sugary-sweet vocals, relatable lyrics, and heartfelt emotion.
"Ooh LA LA" by Run The Jewels (feat. Greg Nice & DJ Premier)
Rap duo Run The Jewels, consisting of Killer Mike and El-P, are back with a new jam called "Ooh LA LA". The track has a laid-back, 90s rap vibe that perfectly complements the comfortable-brag lyrics. In particular, Killer Mike's "First of all, fuck the fucking law, we is fucking raw / Steak tartare, oysters on the half-shell, sushi bar" is a standout, but really, the whole song is filled with such lines. What's more, the song is well-served by a catchy-AF chorus. Run The Jewels are scheduled to release a new album this year, and had an amazing double-bill tour with Rage Against the Machine (titled, appropriately, "Public Service Announcement") planned for 2020 – time will tell how much of that tour they are actually able to embark upon.
"P2" by Lil Uzi Vert
In 2017, Lil Uzi Vert shook up the world with, of all things, an emo rap song, entitled "XO Tour Llif3". "Push me to the edge, all my friends are dead," says Uzi on the chorus , throwing in side-note one-liners like "I might blow my brain out / Xanny numb the pain, yeah". Late 90s emo rock bands probably ate their hearts out – here was a genuine and successful emo song, parceled in talented rap no less. In 2020, Lil Uzi Vert released his much-awaited (and much-lauded) album called Eternal Atake (read our review here). "P2", coming in just before the end of the behemoth one-hour 18-track album, is in essence the follow-up to "XO Tour Llif3", both lyrically and musically. Uzi retains the hypnotic, slightly-off kilter minor beats, and his lyrics take on an after-the-fact vibe: "I don't really care 'cause I'm done". Great song, and great album.
"Faith" by The Weeknd
"Faith" is an atmospheric, textured track from The Weeknd's new album, After Hours (read our review here). While most of the spotlight right now is on the lead singles – "Blinding Lights", "Heartless" – it's really "Faith" that finds The Weeknd (a.k.a. Abel Tesfaye) at his most genuine, fractured self. Set on heavy choir-like synths, "Faith" really explores the various pieces of Abel's self-destructive tendencies. He goes sober for his new love, but threatens to go back to his old ways if she leaves him. When given a choice between Heaven or Las Vegas (a reference to a previous song, btw), he chooses Sin City. And if he ODs? "But if I OD, I want you to OD right beside me / I want you to follow right behind me," he requests. "Faith" is almost a psychological study of a chronic drug abuser and what makes one stuck that way. Good music too – check it out.
"Break My Heart" by Dua Lipa
Technically, British-Albanian rising star Dua Lipa's new album has been in the public sphere for a few months already. Unless you live under a rock, you must have heard her massive global hit, "Don't Start Now". The next single, "Physical", did the rounds well too. This month, the new album Future Nostalgia was finally released, and it proved to be on par with both of those bangers. In particular, "Break My Heart" really encapsulates the vibe of the whole album: nostalgia for the early 2000s (when Dua was a teeny-bopper) masked in the touchpoints of today's pop hits. Synth-pop beats and her signature husky voice bring back memories of Titanic-era Cher, perhaps, with some busy Gwen Stefani-esque attitude – but it's all done in a way that feels modern, not retro. The perfectly-titled Future Nostalgia as a whole is a great ride, and "Break My Heart" is a good place to start.

Monthly Playlist: Apr. 2019
We're back with another edition of the Monthly Playlist! This month's songs range from Los Angeles lo-fi to Japanese indie rock and more – read on for all the deets.
5. "38's" by The Vanities
"38's", by Glaswegian garage punk band The Vanities, is a whiskey-soaked vignette about drunken nights that last so late you miss the bus back home (ostensibly, the 38 in Glasgow). Within the first few seconds, Vanities drummer Craig Fellowes bursts in at a frenetic pace that never quite lets off over the song's entire three-minute mark – but don't let the percussion overwhelm you. The winning element here is the Vanities' ability to paint a witty, entertaining picture of an inebriated evening. "Wasteland sights, apart from prozzies and rubble / Thirty quid for the night, far from subtle, she's trouble / I'm coming down now, I wish I'd made my vodka a double," goes the tune, perfectly encapsulating that no-man's-land age between late teens and early adulthood (the band's four members are all in their early twenties).
If you get the feeling that the Vanities' experiences are cut from the same cloth as the gin-soaked, unsuccessful-clubbing escapades that shaped Arctic Monkeys' debut album, you are absolutely right. There is a lot more to anticipate from the Vanities, and we are here for it.
4. "Why'd You Have to Act Like That Though" by Inner Wave
"Why'd You Have to Act Like That Though", by LA-based five-piece Inner Wave, is a chill, lo-fi psych rock track that brings to mind a mix of Mac de Marco and Lonerism-era Tame Impala. The track starts off with a slightly off-kilter melody, layered under spoken-word musings in the style of Julian Casablancas (it's no accident – the five bandmates apparently grew up listening to the Strokes in the early aughts). Seamlessly, lead singer Pablo Sotelo melts into a hypnotic, repeated chorus – "I've been missing you, I've been missing you, I swear"; and before you know it, the song's over. It's loopy, lo-fi and catchy as hell, and had us pressing the replay button more than a few times. Be sure to keep an eye out for Inner Wave's upcoming album, wyd, out on May 17.
3. "This Life" by Vampire Weekend
By this point, Vampire Weekend have an unmistakable sound to them. Whether it's Ezra Koenig's earnest voice, the Beach Boys-esque pleasantness of the guitars, or the harmonic choral elements, it is fairly straightforward to pick out a Vampire Weekend song from any random lineup. On "This Life", from the upcoming album Father of the Bride, Vampire Weekend takes their cornucopia of congeniality to a gloomy tale of broken dreams. "Baby, I know pain is as natural as the rain / I just thought it didn't rain in California," sings Koenig, hiding the darkness behind a veneer of jangly Americana. It gets worse: "You've been cheating on, cheating on me / I've been cheating on, cheating on you," he confesses a few lines later. With its genial music and its weighty lyrics, "This Life" is a great tune that works across two very different angles. Highly recommend this song and album.
Father of the Bride is out on May 3.
2. "Pretty Old Man" by No Buses
No Buses are a Japanese indie rock band heavily influenced by the 2000s garage rock revival sound. Of course, they aren't the first with that set of influences. It's easy enough to write a simple, easygoing tune, but what really surprises the listener about No Buses is their ability to create an instant earworm. On "Pretty Old Man", No Buses weave a love story with at least one geriatric participant, in between roving guitar riffs and steady-as-can-be drums. The result is an earnest homage to the likes of early Arctic Monkeys (even down to the band's name) and Oasis without coming off too saccharine. A tough feat, but one that No Buses manage well. We're excited to hear more from them soon.
1. "Power is Power" by SZA, The Weeknd and Travis Scott
Ten years from now, in the annals of pop culture history, April 2019 will be heralded as an historic month, for two book-to-Technicolor transformations: the end of Marvel's Avengers comic book saga with Endgame, and the final season of the record-busting Game of Thrones. For GoT fans who want to augment their visual and cinematic experiences, the TV show released For the Thrones, a soundtrack inspired by the characters and thematic elements onscreen. "Power is Power", featuring three of the world's biggest stars, is an ode to the reluctant hero of the entire series – Jon Snow.
What we love about this track are the interlocking yet distinct contributions from the three featured artists. The Weeknd's echoing beats bring to mind his chart-topping "Pray for Me" from the Black Panther soundtrack, but his lyrics are far-removed from the African savannah of Wakanda. "I was born of the ice and snow / With the winter wolves and the dark alone," he sings; a perfect battle hymn for the oft-wallowing Jon. SZA knocks it out of the park with a fluid, strong verse that further explores the self-doubt / heroism clash within Jon's psyche. And Travis Scott, as usual, switches it up with a verse that contrasts but complements the rest of the song.
All in all, "Power is Power" is a treat whether you're a Game of Thrones fan or not.

The Weeknd – My Dear Melancholy,
This EP is the only way I was ever going to learn that The Weeknd was dating Selena Gomez, let alone that they had broken up. I was quite surprised by that. I was much more surprised when it turned to be Abel who ended up, and I quote, "catching feelings."
Unfortunately, the music doesn't manage quite the same amount of surprise. My Dear Melancholy, returns to the sound he pioneered with his Trilogy, but lacks the raw strength of that work and naturally carries none of the same novelty five years after his debut. The Weeknd's sound changed for the more commercial after the breakout success of "Love Me Harder" and it can't fully shake that off in this return to his original sound. The sense of danger is, seemingly irrevocably, gone.
It is, nevertheless, a solid 20 minutes of music. Abel's voice remains as haunting as ever and the production is both sunken and mildly threatening, but in a way that you can dance to. It's not Trilogy though, although it's the album that tries most to be since Kiss Land, and it's still likely the closest you're going to get this year.

Kendrick Lamar – Black Panther: The Album
Black Panther was both an excellent movie and a cultural milestone. The album doesn't quite hold up to that standard on either axis or the standard that Kendrick has gotten us accustomed to, but there is still space below all those bars for it to be quite good.
First of all, the singles all do well. "All The Stars" is just a great Kendrick joint and SZA absolutely kills both the chorus and her own verse. The Weeknd is in his comfort zone with "Pray For Me" and while Kendrick's verse doesn't quite gel with the rest of the song, it's still just very good. "King's Dead" has a solid Jay Rock verse, some stellar work from Future and the memorable "Miss me with that bullshit" from Kendrick.
Additionally, a couple of the other songs punch well above their weight. SOB x RBE burn down their song and Yugen Blakrok simply overwhelms the rest of "Opps" until it there's nothing else left. The rest of the album is unfortunately forgettable however. There are moments, but not enough to save it from a slight blandness. There are no actual misses here. There's nothing so poor as to hurt. The album as a whole does feel a little deadened due to all the cotton wool packed in it though.
The entire album runs the afro-futurism of the movie quite well however. There are a lot of explicit call-outs to Wakanda, Killmonger and the Black Panther himself, but more importantly, the beats themselves strongly reinforce the theme. Hearing sounds like this from a confirmed A-lister like Kendrick in the context of an album of the magnitude of this one is both novel and important. Also, it's just good music.

The Weeknd: Beauty Behind The Madness
Beauty Behind The Madness is the Weeknd striking out for more mainstream success. The is the end of the path that his Ariana Grande collaboration "Love Me Harder" started. This is still a Weeknd album and still has some interesting stuff, but feels something of a miss.
He had a specific emotion that he was emblematic of. The Trilogy is the feeling of walking home at night while knowing your relationship died at birth. His lyrics and his singular voice both pushed the theme to the point where the music became shorthand for the emotion. This has shades of that, and shades of a more mature look at it, in this album but it has missteps and diversions enough to distract from that core. This is not a bad album, but it is hard not to feel a little let down. "Shameless" and "The Hills" are where his music was always headed, both lyrically and musically and "Can't Feel My Face", while new ground for The Weeknd, is indisputably a great pop tune, but "Dark Times" for instance is just lazy tripe.
It's hard to know who to recommend this album to. Weeknd fans will find some stuff to fall into and so will people looking for off-beat pop, but anyone looking for more than a serviceable new album is bound to feel disappointed.

Scientists from the Institute of Forensic Medicine collaborated with police in 2003 to solve a triple homicide. Three women were found beaten to death in an apartment outside of Zürich, Switzerland. One victim had a bite mark on her shoulder. After creating dental casts and using 3-D imaging technology to recreate the bite sequence, scientists were able to prove to a jury that the suspect made the mark. He was found guilty.
Multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), when used with 3-D imaging technology, create vivid images of the interior of the human body. Dr. Richard Dirnhoter and Dr. Michael Thali and thier team of specialists at the University of Bern's Institute of Forensic Medicine, Switzerland are using these new imaging technologies to develop "Virtopsy"—a bloodless and minimally invasive "virtual autopsy" procedure to examine bodies for causes of death.
Virtopsy detects internal bleeding, bullet paths, and hidden fractures hard to find in a traditional autopsy. The MSCT and MRI aid in picturing fracture patterns, bone and missile fragmentation, brain contusion, 3-D bullet localization, gas embolism, and blood aspiration to the lung.
Unlike traditional autopsy, Virtopsy does not destroy human tissue. It can be used when religious beliefs prohibit, or families object to, the cutting open of the body. The developers of Virtopsy do not envision the procedure as a replacement for traditional autopsy but as a tool to be used in cases where dissection of the body is not feasible or where forensic evidence is particularly hard to visualize.

One reckless tweet, one mindless Snapchat, one thoughtless text message. That's all it takes to derail a child's dreams of going to college, winning a scholarship or landing an internship. That reality, coupled with the amount of time kids spend on devices nowadays, can make parenting in the age of digital technology complicated and overwhelming.
One reckless tweet, one mindless Snapchat, one thoughtless text message. That's all it takes to derail a child's dreams of going to college, winning a scholarship or landing an internship.
That reality, coupled with the amount of time kids spend on devices nowadays, can make parenting in the age of digital technology complicated and overwhelming.
More than half of teens saying they feel addicted to their cell phones, according to the nonprofit group CommonSense.org. And 45 percent say they are online almost constantly, according to Pew Research Center's "Teens, Social Media & Technology 2018" report.
If you are concerned about your child's online behavior, you are not alone. A 2014 survey titled "Parenting in the Age of Technology" conducted by Northwestern University's Center on Media and Human Development found that the vast majority of parents say new media technologies make parenting more difficult. Almost 80 percent say it caused conflict in their home.
As the digital landscape continues to evolve, protecting your children from dangers online is becoming more complex. Social media presents new risks every day, ranging from cyberbullying to shielding children from predators, explicit adult material and scams.
But your child may also be engaging in other behaviors on social media that put his or her health and safety in jeopardy. Oversharing, giving into peer pressure and posting inappropriate content on social networking websites like Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp or Snapchat can have serious consequences, including costing your child opportunities in the future.
Consider this: Data from Kaplan Test Prep shows that 25 percent of college admissions counselors have looked at applicants' social media accounts to learn more about them. Harvard University even went so far as to revoke offers from potential students after inappropriate posts were discovered on the students' Facebook accounts.
This trend highlights a fundamental truth about the internet: What you post online lasts forever.
Many children don't realize the impact that inappropriate social media use can have on their lives and reputations. As a parent, it's up to you to educate them about how to engage online wisely. Talk to your child about how using social media may affect her future. Having an open discussion sets a solid foundation for trust.
Beyond having a candid conversation with your little one, what else can you do to encourage your child or teen to use social media wisely? Here are four ideas to consider.
1. Create a social media agreement. Establish a set of guidelines or ground rules around your child's social media habits. For example, you may limit how much they spend online per day. Having your child promise to never taunt or harass others and be mindful about the photos they post can encourage positive behavior. The Family Online Safety Institute offers an example of a social media agreement you can customize here.
2. Be a good example. Refrain from posting rants or inappropriate material yourself. Teach your child respectful behavior by modeling how to be a good online citizen.
3. Stay ahead of the game. There are always new secret social media apps popping up, so educate yourself about how different networks function. Before allowing your child to use an app, vet the content for age appropriateness. Each of the major social networks—Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter—requires that users be at least 13 years old to create an account.
4. Activate parental filters and privacy settings. Keep your child's content as private as possible so that her posts cannot be viewed publicly (and possibly used against her). You might consider purchasing a program that lets you monitor your child's online activity, block chats and filter content. It's also a good idea to keep the family computer in a visible part of the home so that you can keep an eye on activity.
You don't need to spy on your child's every move, but keeping tabs on online behavior is important. By considering these steps, you can help ensure protect your child and your child's future.

Capone remembers that he always loved the kid behind the mask, thanks to Marc Webb's THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN!!!
Published at: June 27, 2012, 1:16 a.m. CST by Capone
Hey everyone. Capone in Chicago here.
Because it's being released in such close proximity to THE AVENGERS, the temptation I'm sure many critics and civilians will face is comparing that film with director Marc Webb's THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. And what I'm hoping you all do is be sophisticated enough to realize that both are very strong movies for almost entirely different reasons. Of course, the other temptation will be to compare Webb's relationship-heavy take on the life of young Peter Parker with Sam Raimi's trilogy. This is unavoidable but would still be doing the new film a great disservice.
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN does something almost unheard of in the superhero arena: it treats its relationships with reverence. And in that sense, this film is like no other superhero movie I've ever seen. These characters care about each other, and as a result, we care about them. I always got the sense the Mary Jane Watson loved Peter Parker but was turned on by the suit; but in Webb's version of things, Gwen Stacy (beautifully played as the most mature, emotionally stable character in the film by Emma Stone) is madly in love with Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield, who captures the shy, awkward, intelligent, jokester so much more convincingly than Tobey Maguire ever did--and I say that having always been a fan of Maguire's work).
Chemistry is a tough thing to define or explain, but you know it when you see it, and from the first moment they converse, we see a connection between Peter and Gwen that is lifted straight from the original comic books. Hell, I don't think a man alive could resist Gwen as played by Stone, complete with the go-go boots, miniskirts and assortment of headbands framing her blonde bangs. But her appeal goes light years beyond her looks. She's caring and protective of her man, but she could also give his intellect a run for its money. She's Parker's complete package, and these two must be together.
But THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN's accomplishments don't end with the love story, which was a natural fit for Webb, director of the wonderful (500) DAYS OF SUMMER. This film is actually three movies: a love story; a family drama involving Peter's sense of parental abandonment; and an examination of the mentor/adversary relationship between Peter and Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans), who has been written as both an employee of OsCorp (run by the unseen Norman Osborn) and former colleague of Peter's father, Richard (seen in flashbacks and played by Campbell Scott). And all three storylines are fascinating for their own reasons.
The way Raimi treated the relationship between Peter and his Aunt May and Uncle Ben always seemed like a pesky afterthought, something he needed to plod through to get to the action set pieces. But Webb the elder Parkers, as played by Sally Field and Martin Sheen. This place where they live with their nephew is a warm, loving home where Peter must work through everything from being the victim of bullying on a semi-regular basis at school, to first love, to having the crap kicked out of him by various villains.
In the comics, Peter's conversion into Spider-Man was always a metaphor for the angst teens about entering adulthood, both physically and mentally, but never have I seen such a clear representation of that than THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, and that's due in large part to Garfield's wonderful acting. Peter is a bundle of jittery nerves, but he's also a skillful skateboarder (even before his spider bite). There's a timid side to him that is balanced by an underlying knowledge that he lives in a time when nerds are inheriting the earth and becoming billionaires.
It's so much fun watching him trial-and error design his webshooters or the excitement he feels as he presents Connors with the missing formula for cross-species regeneration. And when he becomes Spider-Man, as much as he should probably keep that a secret, as an excitable teenager, he can't help but tell Gwen because he loves her. Thoughts of the danger that knowledge puts her in haven't entered his immature mind just yet, but they will.
I realize I'm making THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN sound like strictly a character study, but make no mistake, the action sequence are fan-fucking-tastic. There's a playful sloppiness to some of the early scenes where Peter is still figuring out both his powers as well as the webs and web shooters he's built himself. Sometimes his webs don't land where he wants them because he hasn't figured out how to aim them just yet. Another sequence has Spider-Man swinging too low over a New York City street, and as a result, he bounces off buses, cars and buildings. He still has to learn a little more about physics as it applies to him swinging on a web. And of course, this all makes sense. How would he know how to do work with these newfound skills without practice?
Webb features a couple of exquisite POV shots of Spider-Man floating through the city, and it's in sequences like that where the 3-D truly comes to life. There is much of this film that does not benefit from 3-D in the slightest, but the aerial shots are perfection as are the fight scenes with The Lizard, the monster Connors becomes when he decides to make himself the lab rat for his own limb-regeneration experiments. Like many Spider-Man "villains," Connors has some firmly established psychological issues before science turns him into a monster. His ideas about weakness and strength in people is a bit twisted, and Ifans does a convincing job of wanting to help Peter finish the work his father started and encouraging the young man in his chosen field of science. Connors is the secondary father figure as well as being a career counselor.
So what about The Lizard, never one of my favorite foes in the comic books? What I do like about the battles between Spider-Man and The Lizard in this movie is how Spider-Man is forced to hold back and not hurt his friend under the scaly skin, which is not to say their scraps aren't brutal. The way The Lizard moves with such speed and fluidity, incorporating his tail, hell bent on full-on destruction, and it's a blast to watch. I was especially impressed with the slow transformation Connors makes into this creature; it's not an immediate change, and as a result we see Ifans in half-lizard makeup that is almost more monstrous than the final version.
I'll admit, once I realized that THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN would feature another version of the Spider-man original story, it took the wind out of my sails a bit. But there are small, important changes in both the radioactive spider bite scenario and the death of Uncle Ben that make Webb's telling important because those moments fall more in line with the greater story of Peter Parker's life. They don't just happen randomly; they happen because Peter's recklessness and immaturity lead to them. And yes, I know the death of Uncle Ben has always been partly Peter's fault, but the version of that pivotal moment here is so much more tragic.
I really hope Webb finishes out his vision of Spider-Man in sequels. I'd hate to see anyone else continue the Gwen Stacy saga, especially if it plays out as it does in the comic books. He has such a sure and steady hand when it comes to human drama that it would be a shame to let anyone else touch this world that he has meticulously built. THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN isn't paced, written or executed like any superhero film that came before it, but in terms of building out these richly realized characters and relationships, I can't think of another director who has handled that aspect better. The action is great too, but we all know what great action and effects look like in these types of films. This movie is an entirely different, more involving experience that I fell in love with.

In this world of computer age, agility and dexterity are the two main factors that every manager tries to introduce and boost in his team. It means that the organizations strive to speed up the work or their numerous tasks swiftly and smoothly. To accomplish this aim or target, the computer technology has introduced and improved on several features of computer products. They have revised and improved a number of computer applications as well as converter tools.
PDF converter tool is one of the software used for converting documents from one format to another. These computer programs come packed with different features and attributes. Advanced and modified tools are always easy to handle and convenient to use. One can prepare file formats and convert Word to PDF, Excel and Power Point or vice versa with ease.

In this way, you can prepare the documents on several subjects and make your task flexible as well as compatible.


(Mirror) Reminiscent of the urban feel of artsy Miami combined with the laidback feeling of being on Florida's Gulf Coast, the turquoise waters of Sarasota Bay sparkle in the sunshine, reflecting back at the city's waterfront skyline.
What new Florida adventures will this city hold? What exciting finds will there be? These are not always questions I ask myself when arriving to a new destination, but because I've traveled around the Sunshine State, I'm always curious what each unique destination holds here, each with its own seemingly distinct flavor.
My visit to Sarasota boasted a collection of outdoor adventures, worldly cuisine and world-class art and museums. With 13 performance stages in downtown alone—the city is surprisingly home to world-renowned theatre, ballet and opera—something I had yet to experience in Florida!
A lovely spot to dine out for lunch, and only a couple blocks from Hotel Indigo, is lesbian-owned The Overton (theovertonsrq.com). This newer eatery features large doors that can be opened for an open-air style café vibe, serving up delicious food or just a cozy spot to sip a coffee. Cuisine here ranges from breakfast options like egg sandwiches and fresh pastries, to full lunch dishes like a burger and fries.
Of course if you're on vacation, O'Leary's Tiki Bar (olearystikibar.com) might be more your vibe. Located in Sarasota's Bayfront Park (next to the must-see outdoor Embracing Our Differences art exhibit currently on display through March), this Florida-style waterfront restaurant dishes up no-frills beach fare and frozen cocktails that you can chow down on picnic-style with your feet in the sand while overlooking the Bay.
Get to know Sarasota on a more intimate level by making a reservation at Clasico Café Bar (barclasico.com). This romantic restaurant has a mildly different vibe from every other Italian eatery; with international beats playing, sidewalk café-style seating and a certain buzz from patrons all dressed up, you'll get the feeling like you're sitting in a restaurant somewhere south of the equator. The restaurant transforms on weekends with a live DJ and dance floor. For late nights, if you don't fancy checking out the city's main gay watering hole Oasis (facebook.com/oasissarasota), find your way to Pangea Alchemy Lab (pangealounge.com), currently only accessible through a back alley entryway. You'll feel like you stepped back in time to a dimly lit prohibition-era speakeasy, but updated with a cool modern vibe and inventive libations, of course. It's perfect for after-dinner drinks or small shared plates.
Hands down the top attraction when visiting Sarasota, is the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art (ringling.org). This elaborate 66-acre estate includes art exhibits you'll be surprised to find in Florida. And the circus magnate's own personal stunning mansion the Ca d'Zan and gardens are works of art as well. It's easy to spend an entire afternoon here wandering the grounds before finding your way in to gape at the art on display or explore the Circus Museum.
A quick runner-up to the Ringling Museum is another piece of Ringling's legacy-turned-center of local and visitor life alike, St. Armand's Circle (starmandscircleassoc.com). This outdoor shopping area has more than 130 high-end retail stores and restaurants, mixing local history and culture to paint a unique perspective of the city of Sarasota.
For those with a penchant for learning and experience, another must-visit is Sarasota's Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium (mote.org). Here you can get up-close and personal with many of Florida's species of marine life! The not-for-profit marine research location provides a hands-on learning experience about many of Florida's underwater creatures such as sharks, turtles and manatees, as well as the valuable rehabilitative work being done to preserve these species. And leaving from the Mote is another experiential way to spend the afternoon on Sarasota Bay: Sarasota Bay Explorers (sarasotabayexplorers.com) sails out for daily tours of the bay—but with an educational twist. Mote researchers play tour guides as they dredge up sea life from the Bay to give guests a close encounter with the unique ecology that lies just beneath the surface.
For the outdoorsy among us, Sarasota offers an exhilarating adventure that was by far my favorite experience during my visit. Treeumph (treeumph.com), which can really only be described as adventure courses, combines zip lines, ropes and treetop obstacle courses for what results in a full-body, adrenaline-spiking good time. Most importantly, don't miss spending time at the beautiful white sandy beaches that the Gulf Coast is known for. Plan a day at Siesta Key, or the city's gay beach on Lido Key.
Whatever you're seeking for a quick weekend getaway, if it's culture, cuisine or adventure, Sarasota has plenty to spare. Go to VisitSarasota.com for more info.

Q: Get siblings from custom post type I have setup an custom post type with the structure below:

*

*Main post

*

*Children post

*

*Sibling post

I have two main posts called "Vrouwen" en "Mannen"
When i visit one of these main posts i would like to only display the siblings.
Im stuck in achieving this.
But then the "children" are also displayed.
I need to go one level deeper somehow.
All help is appreciated!
I tried the code below.
$mysibling        = $post->post_parent;
$mychild          = $post->ID;
$mychildmysibling = array( $mychild, $mysibling );

$args = array(
    'post_parent'    => $mychildmysibling,
    'post__not_in' => array( $post->ID ),
    'posts_per_page' => -1,
    'post_type'       => 'collectie'
);

$parent = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $parent->have_posts() ) : $parent->the_post();

But then the "children" are also displayed. I need to go one level deeper somehow.

A: First of all post_parent expects a number but you set an array. Secondly, you basically need to make it work only for the main pages? So query should look like this:
// find children for the main post
$children = get_children( array('post_parent' => $post->ID));

// check if the post has any children
if ( ! empty($children) ) {
   // get all posts where the parent is set as children to main post
   $args = array(
        'post_parent__in' => array_keys($children),
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'post_type' => 'collectie'
    );

   $siblings = new WP_Query( $args );

   if ( $siblings->have_posts() ) {
       while ( $siblings->have_posts() ) {
           $siblings->the_post();

           echo get_the_title();
       }
   }

   wp_reset_postdata();
}

Make sure you do a thorough situation analysis. We like to use a variation of Porter's Five Forces.
Get as many people in the company involved in that Situation Analysis as you can. Socializing the key issues confronting your company is a foundational step in getting everyone aligned around future direction. If people understand how the competitive environment is changing, they'll be much more likely to get on board with new initiatives, even if it means changing the routines and work with which they've gotten comfortable.
The most important part of that definition is "focus your limited resources." That's because your resources will always be constrained, no matter how big or small your business might be. On the other hand, the market is really big. So you can't go after the entire market. You just don't have the resources to do that. But if you choose a small segment of the market, addressing a very specific type of pain point, you can really move the needle. Coming out of the analysis you've done on your customers, the competition and the market, you can identify the intersection of those three things. And that is where your strategy lies.
However, it's one thing to define the strategy that creates sustainable competitive advantage. Focusing your limited resources means making key decisions about how to invest money and people on specific activities. In that way, your income statement should communicate clearly what your strategy is. Once you determine the source of your competitive advantage, you have to completely organize your operation to deliver that advantage. To quote Michael Porter, if strategy is to have any meaning at all, it must link directly to your company's financial performance.
Trader Joe's: A small format chain competing with the major chains across the country, Kroger, Safeway etc. In that small footprint, they outsell more than 2:1 on a dollar per square foot basis with less than 10 percent of the SKU's. They do that with a heavy reliance on store brands that are of far better quality that the typical big grocery store brand.
Dollar Shave Club: The business started in 2011 selling razor blades to men through subscription service, rather than compete with the vast physical distribution channels dominated by Gillette and Schick. They took advantage of the viral power of the internet to create broad awareness quickly, and the speed and convenience of the Postal Service to save men that trip to the drugstore. And sold to Unilever in 2016 for $1 billion.
You can see in both these examples how the two companies made critical decisions about how to win in the marketplace. Then, although much smaller than their competition, were able to create powerful competitive advantage by investing in people and processes that uniquely delivered that advantage to the very specific target audiences they were aiming for.
So, getting strategy right is a two-step process. You have to do the hard work of determining where your competitive advantage truly lies. Then you have to completely organize your company around delivering that advantage, which will be reflected in how your spend your investable cash.


In news that continues to defy all odds, the terribly mediocre Syracuse Orange basketball team keep winning games. Yesterday they came back from a 15-point deficit with about nine minutes to play against a Virginia Cavaliers team simply by pressing, which made Virginia go from a slow, methodical, plodding style of play into something much more frantic.
It's a move that makes you wonder why teams don't press 100 percent of the time, since it's been proven time and again this tournament that handling the press is absurdly difficult for these college kids.
Anyway, earlier in the game, Syracuse freshman Tyler Lydon lost a shoe. NO MATTER. He promptly got back up, kicked the shoe away, and proceeded to knock down a one-shoed three-pointer. Not included in this video is the very impressive move by Michael Gbinije to pick up the shoe and toss it off the court, all while maintaining his dribble. Now that's a shoe-pendous move.
Okay, I'll see myself out.

Amid the recession, industrial towns in the Rust Belt have been forced to evolve as jobs dry up. But this is nothing new for the region, where towns have been re-imagining their economies for decades. NPR reports.
"In the Pittsburgh suburb of Homestead, I found longtime Mayor Betty Esper. She spent three decades working in U.S. Steel's massive Homestead Works, a sprawling mill across the Monongahela River from Pittsburgh that shut down in 1986. She was elected mayor several years after the mill closed.
Esper says her community lost tax revenue during those years with so many people out of work. The town had to slash its budget and cut services.
Over time, Homestead recovered. The key, Esper said, was redeveloping the site of the old mill. It's now a sprawling waterfront shopping and business complex. And the money generated from the property is fueling Homestead's economy - and helping the town weather the current recession."


Although Silver Spring real estate has always been desirable to those looking for homes in the Washington, D.C. area, downtown Silver Spring has become even more popular since undergoing something of a renaissance over the last few years. Silver Spring real estate owners now have access to a wide variety of shopping and dining establishments ranging from national chains to family-owned businesses. The Arts have also thrived. The reopening of the Silver Theatre, renamed AFI Silver, has made the city a mecca for independent films. The city now hosts a documentary film festival, Silverdocs, that has become a major draw for Silver Spring real estate owners and tourists alike. But perhaps most importantly, this transformation has brought significant employment opportunities to the city's residents. In 2003, Discovery Communications completed its corporate headquarters adjacent to the Silver Spring Metro station. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the American Nurses Association also call Silver Spring real estate home, providing jobs not only to area residents but also to commuters from adjacent suburbs.
Whats your Silver Spring home worth?

Once again I am in Khartoum - today was supposed to be a full day in the big city, but due to the meeting in Juba I only got a few hours in town.
I'm really looking forward to my leave now. I know it's really not that long since my last one, but it'll be nice to be home for Easter and get early spring in Norway.
As for yesterdays hush-hush... the cat is out of the bag now, so I may speak more freely. Yesterday all the other Norwegian military personnel in southern Sudan meet with the Norwegian Minister of Defense, who was on a fact finding tour with a view to what Norway can provide if/when a new mission in South Sudan is rolled out. Very interesting, very worthwhile and better by far than sitting a whole day in Khartoum.


I'm super excited to be reading The Christmas Cowboy Hero by Donna Grant, I will have to say I was enchanted by the synopsis, and it stuck with me, until I managed to get my greedy little hands on it! And it didn't disappoint.
Retired Navy SEAL Clayton East had to come home, not out of choice, but to save his parents ranch, after his father had a mini stroke, their CPA had embezzled money, and if that wasn't stressful enough, someone had stolen his cattle!!!
Abby Harper had taken on a lot in her young life, she was the legal guardian to her two young brothers, Brice and Caleb, after her mother had abandoned them, raising them, keeping a roof over their heads, was sometimes all she could handle. But when she got a call from the sheriff's office, Abby felt like her world was falling about her, especially when she has to deal with Clayton East! The man who's cattle her brother stole.
I'm am not going to go any further with that, as I don't want to give away the story. But I will say that The Christmas Cowboy Hero was even better than I imagined, and I will be following this series from now on.
I loved all the character's in this book, Clayton's uncertainty, Abby's determination, but Brice and Caleb stole my heart! I'm hoping Shane gets his own story, he is defiantly someone who deserves it.
The Christmas Cowboy Hero is a well written Christmas romance, than you will read again and again, despite the time of year! And in my humble opinion, it's definitely Hallmark Christmas movie worthy!!
I give The Christmas Cowboy Hero 5 stars!


MAE SAI, Thailand (AP) — Heavy rainfall stymied efforts to rescue members of a youth soccer team trapped in a cave in northern Thailand by flooding underground passages faster than water can be pumped out, a senior official said Wednesday.
Muddy water rising to the ceiling of one of the chambers has prevented Thai navy SEAL divers from progressing farther into the cave to where they think the 12 schoolboys and their coach, who went missing Saturday, may be sheltering. There has been no contact with the group since they entered the Tham Luang Nang Non cave in Chiang Rai province.
At the entrance to the cave, officials were bringing in large water hoses and more water pumps. Navy divers who have been working their way through the complex said that water levels were rising in some places at a rate of 15 centimeters (6 inches) per hour early Wednesday.
"We tried to pump the water (out of the chamber) but the water keeps rising. That means the water that comes in with the rain is still much more than what we can pump out," said Chiang Rai Gov. Narongsak Osatanakorn. "So we need to pump the water faster."
He said the navy SEAL teams leading the search have been bolstered.
Narongsak also said teams continued to look for another way in to the blocked portions of the cave by searching for any shafts that might be accessible on the surface of the mountain, under which the cave sits. Two fissures were found Tuesday but proved to be dead ends. The rescuers were exploring another one found Wednesday morning.
Despite setbacks, officials remained publicly optimistic about the prospects for a successful rescue.
"We still have hope. All agencies are trying their best. We have a challenge from the water level that keep rising," Thai army chief Gen. Chalermchai Sittisart told reporters at the site. "We are adding more pumps to lower the level down so that the SEAL team could operate better."
He added that all agencies were working hard, "rotating 24 hours so that we can have a success in this operation."
The U.S. military was preparing to assist. The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, which is based in Hawaii, is sending a special operations team to Thailand in response to a request for help with the rescue effort, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity. It wasn't immediately clear when the team would arrive.
Interior Minister Anupong Paojinda told reporters earlier that the divers could proceed only when enough water is pumped out so there is space between the water and the ceiling to make it safer to work. The divers will also soon start using special oxygen tanks that provide longer diving times, he said.
The boys aged 11-16 have been missing since their 25-year-old coach took them to the cave complex on Saturday after a practice match.
Associated Press journalists Kaweewit Kaewjinda and Jason Corben in Bangkok and Robert Burns in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.


weber_cam: Charcuterie, A book that will change my life (a little).
Charcuterie, A book that will change my life (a little).
Cookbook authors are notorious for making unsubstantiated, general statements. They are often authoritative sounding, but hardly methodological. I haven't purchased a cookbook in years. I recently borrowed Ruhlman and Polcyn's Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting, Smoking, and Curing. This is more of a fun text than it is a cookbook. Soon, I'll have to buy it.
The chapter on sausage making is worth the price of the book. The authors are rigorous in their safe preparation of the tastiest and least expensive cuts of meat. A central theme in the book is flavorful, but tough, fatty cuts of meat can be tenderized by mechanical means as an alternative to long cooking methods like braising. I learned grinding meat isn't just pounding a piece through the grinding attachment of your Kitchen Aid (I can assure you, that careless approach does NOT work). It requires attention to sanitation, careful measurement and temperature control. They use mass rather than volumetric measurement throughout the book, essential to any accurate preparation description. The techniques aren't hard, but attention to them will result in a truly special piece of meat rather than relying on the corporate-level sausage skills of the big meat houses.
• A Carolina tangy barbecue sauce (it's already on my stove).
• Brining times based on cut of meat.
• How to make jerky from venison (we have a ton of venison on hand).
• Making pancetta from $2/lb pork belly.
• Merguez preparation (although Mediterranean Imports makes a great one).
• Grinding my own turkey breast for my special meatballs.
• Room temperature fermentation of vegetables to pickled vegetables.
• and soooo much more, can't wait to try more of the preps.
I agree. This book is on my shelf.
Welcome to the dark side-I can say with certainty that your life won't be the same as sausage formulations drift through you mind at all times of the day and night. Don't forget the confit section-the duck confit is incrediable. Get the duck legs at CAM, rendered duck fat at the game place in the north market (pretty cheap too, $5 for a pound).
Yep, I started blogging about month after I got the book. Good times.

USA - NOAA Aquaculture Policy Listening Sessions and National Call-in
NOAA is seeking input on the components of a draft aquaculture policy from interested stakeholders including communities, state and local governments, tribes, businesses, associations, the aquaculture industry, commercial and recreational fishermen, the seafood industry, non-governmental organizations, and the general public
As a first step in the development of a new National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Aquaculture Policy, NOAA is seeking input on the components of a draft aquaculture policy from interested stakeholders including communities, state and local governments, tribes, businesses, associations, the aquaculture industry, commercial and recreational fishermen, the seafood industry, non-governmental organizations, and the general public.
Stakeholders can participate in three ways - by participating in a listening session, by submitting a comment online, or by participating in a national call-in. The details for all of these options are listed below. The public input period will begin on April 6 and end on May 14, 2010.
After the listening sessions are over, NOAA will analyze the public input and develop a draft national policy for review and public comment. Once that process is complete, the agency will issue a new NOAA Aquaculture Policy.
Aquaculture Listening Sessions and National Call-in
The NOAA aquaculture listening sessions and national call-in will be an open forum for the public to make recommendations to NOAA officials regarding a new policy that will address all forms of marine aquaculture. A time limit will apply to all comments. Listening sessions and the national call-in will be held as follows:
April 14 in Narragansett, Rhode Island
Time: 6:00 - 8:30 p.m.

Time: 3:00 - 5:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Tollfree number: 1-877-779-7421
Participant passcode: NOAA
NOAA is currently seeking public input to help shape the scope and objectives of a draft policy. It is particularly interested in hearing ideas about how the policy can most effectively guide and support science; provide clear regulations; support outreach, education, and innovation; and define the U.S. role in this international industry. Below are questions that can guide discussion at the public listening sessions and comments submitted online or via the national call-in.
§ What opportunities exist for developing sustainable marine aquaculture nationwide? What are the major impediments?
§ What are the most important environmental considerations, and how can these be addressed?
§ Which social and economic consequences or outcomes will be the most important in the next 5 years or in the next 20 years?
§ How can NOAA best support essential research and innovation? What should be the goals of NOAA-funded research related to aquaculture?
§ How can NOAA best communicate with the industry and public on aquaculture issues? What are the opportunities for partnerships?
§ What role should NOAA play with respect to aquaculture issues and initiatives at the international level?
§ What other considerations need to be addressed in NOAA's aquaculture policy?
You may type your comment into the form on theNOAA website or upload a separate document. Supporting documents, links, etc., are welcome as long as they are pertinent to the process. The public input period will begin on April 6 and end on May 14, 2010. Click here to submit a comment. Also note the Discussion Questions listed above and the Commenting Guidelines listed below.
Comments may also be submitted:
Via fax: (301) 713-9108 (Attn: Aquaculture Program).
Via mail: NOAA Aquaculture Program, Attn: Public Comment, 1315 East-West Highway, SSMC#3-13th Floor, Mail Code: F, Silver Spring, MD 20910.
In accordance with NOAA's Online Privacy Policy, your name, city, state, and any comments you provide will be treated as public information. You may enter a comment as 'anonymous' if you do not want this information available to the public. Also, supporting documents, links, etc., are welcome as long as they are pertinent to the process. However, the appearance of external links, advertisements, political opinions, or other comments do not constitute endorsement or that of the U.S. Government.
While this is a public process, NOAA will not post content that meets the following criteria:
§ Contains vulgar language, personal attacks of any kind, threats, obscenity, or offensive terms that target specific ethnic or racial groups;
§ Promotes services or products (non-commercial links that are relevant to the comment are acceptable);
§ Are far off-topic (i.e., not within the scope of the policy development process); or
§ Make unsupported accusations.
Aquaculture supplies almost half of the world's seafood and a significant portion of future increases in the global seafood supply are expected to come from aquaculture. The United States is a major consumer of aquaculture products, but a minor producer. Currently, 84 percent of the nation's seafood is imported, and half of that is from aquaculture. U.S. aquaculture supplies about five percent of U.S. seafood. Aquaculture techniques are also widely used in the United States to help restore valuable wild fisheries and habitat, including oysters.
For purposes of this policy, aquaculture is defined as the propagation and rearing of aquatic marine organisms in controlled or selected aquatic environments for any commercial, recreational, or public purpose. This definition covers all production of finfish, shellfish, and other marine organisms, excluding marine mammals, for:
Human consumption and other commercial uses;
Wild stock replenishment;
Rebuilding populations of threatened or endangered species; and
Restoration of marine habitat (e.g., oyster reefs).
The following documents provide background materials and context for this effort.
