James Dean Bradfield – The Great Western
(Columbia) UK release date: 24 July 2006
published: 24 Jul 2006 in Albums
It seems somewhat appropriate that James Dean Bradfield's debut solo album should follow so quickly on the heels of Thom Yorke's The Eraser. Both men's bands emerged at around the same time during the early '90s, earned an almost obsessive following and evolved musically throughout the decade.
How Radiohead and Manic Street Preachers differed though was in their style of evolution. Whereas Radiohead were initially dismissed and ignored as a typically grey indie band, the Manics were press darlings right from the off. Thanks to their glamourous, political image (a novelty itself in the days of shoegazing) and some truly incendiary tracks such as Motown Junk or Repeat, the Welsh band were never short of column inches.
With the disappearance of founder member Richey Edwards though, the Manics as we were to know them ceased to exist and turned into a pretty bog-standard rock group. Their last couple of albums were dull in the extreme, and smacked of a band in desperate need of a break from each other.
It remains to be seen how Nicky Wire has reacted to the apparently temporary dissolution of the band, but it certainly seems to have reinvigorated Bradfield. The Great Western is an album full of great, swooping guitar songs, with an energy and palpable enthusiasm that was desperately missing from latter day Manics material.
It's unlikely to win anyone back who's somehow expecting a sequel to The Holy Bible of course, but that was never going to happen anyway. It's perhaps closest to the Manics' best post-Richey album Everything Must Go, being thoughtful, a bit melodramatic and boasting several tunes that crawl up inside your cranium and set up home there for months on end.
Indeed, it's somewhat of a shock to hear opening track That's No Way To Tell A Lie, with its handclaps and 'sha-la-la' refrain. It's instantly likeable and accessible, and sets the tone nicely for the rest of the album. Bad Boys And Painkillers (co-written with Nicky Wire) has a lovely, summery feel to it and a majestic chorus, while Run Romeo Run is another catchy highlight.
Perhaps the most affecting track is An English Gentleman, written about the Manics' late mentor Philip Hall. Bradfield's only previous lyric before this album was the moving Ocean Spray, about his late mother, so perhaps its no surprise he can write so succinctly about a friend who has passed. Lines like "But you gave us more than we needed, friend/We were so happy to be at the door of an English gentleman" aptly sum up Hall's relationship with the band, and the bursts of harmonies turn it into a life-affirming song rather than a depressing one.
Not all the tracks work so well – Still A Long Way To Go is a bit overwrought, while Emigre and Say Hello To The Pope are a bit too anonymous and bland to make any real impression. Yet mostly it's a relief to hear Bradfield singing his own lyrics, which make a lot more sense than Wire's sometimes rather abstract polemic did.
Of course, those who find Bradfield's voice irritating will find nothing to convince them otherwise here. His vocals are big and passionate but do grate a bit somewhat over the course of an album. Unlike fellow Welshman Kelly Jones though, he knows never to mix up passion with growling – indeed, To See A Friend In Tears sounds a lot better for Bradfield being more restrained. It's a style that he should explore a bit more.
Whether or not The Great Western signals the end for the Manic Street Preachers, long-term fans should have no reason to mourn. This is Bradfield's best work for quite a while, and a good advert for the revitalizing advantages of going solo.

Series: The Light
#BookReview Away From The Dark by Aleatha Romig @AleathaRomig
categories: 9/10, Book Review, Mystery/Thriller
Title: Away from the Dark
Author: Aleatha Romig
Series: The Light #2
Published by: Thomas & Mercer on Oct. 18, 2016
Genres: Mystery/Thriller
Source: Thomas & Mercer, NetGalley
Nine months ago, Sara Adams awoke with no memory. The man holding her hand told her she's a member of The Light, a tight-knit religious group led by the terrifying and charismatic Father Gabriel. As a woman in the community of The Light, her duty is to be unquestionably obedient and to submit to the will of her husband.
But as Sara's memory starts to return and she remembers her past, she sees that everything she's been told is a lie. The Light is an insidious and dangerous organization, and its corrupting influence reaches well beyond the confines of the remote campus where Sara is being held.
With everything at stake, Sara struggles to sort out her true memories from her indoctrination. The desire to escape consumes her, but who can she trust? And which other followers of The Light were forced into this life, brainwashed to believe they belonged? The more she remembers, the more it becomes clear that Jacob, the man who calls himself her husband, is keeping shattering secrets of his own.
But Sara cannot flee alone, leaving innocents behind. She must fight to extinguish The Light.
Intelligent, spine-chilling, and incredibly eerie!
Once again, in this second book in the series, we are taken on a journey into the dark and sinister sect, known as "The Light", and are immersed into a world full of deviance, violence, exploitation, dominance, and manipulation.
The prose is clear, exact and vivid. The characters are intriguing, complicated, and resilient. And the plot is exceptionally executed with the perfect mix of twists, turns, and emotion.
This is a story that will not only captivate and ensnare you from the very first page, but will also have you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
As mentioned, this is the sequel to the novel "Into the Light", and therefore I would highly recommend you read it prior to reading this one. If you haven't had a chance to read my review for Into the Light, you can check it out Here.
This novel is due to be published on October 18, 2016.

#BookReview Into the Light by Aleatha Romig @AleathaRomig
categories: 10/10, Book Review, Mystery/Thriller
Title: Into the Light
Published by: Thomas & Mercer on Jun. 14, 2016
Book Rating: 10/10
Sara Adams awakes blind, unable to remember the most basic details of her life, but her darkness seems a blessing when she discovers the terrors of The Light.
Stella Montgomery investigates the news on the mean streets of Detroit, where she's noticed a disturbing trend: young women are vanishing. When her best friend disappears, Stella investigates—despite warnings from her police detective boyfriend—following a twisted trail that leads her through the city's most dangerous and forsaken precincts. There she uncovers something more sinister than she could have imagined: a shadowy organization known as The Light, led by the enigmatic Father Gabriel.
As Sara struggles to understand her place in the strange world she's awakened to—an oppressive cult demanding unquestioning obedience—and her feelings for Jacob, the husband she can't recall and whose harsh and tender attentions confuse and beguile her, Stella risks all to discover the truth. But enlightenment always comes with a price…
Incredibly clever, disturbingly realistic, and positively creepy!
This is a thriller that transports you into the darkest corners of the human psyche and takes you on a roller coaster ride of psychological manipulation, control, indoctrination, murder, corruption, and deviant ideologies.
The prose is precise, original, and descriptive . The characters are dynamic and complex. And the story is perfectly plotted, powerful, creative, and magnificently twisty.
I guarantee that this story will ensnare you right from the prologue and the ending will blow you away.
This is the first book in the, The Light, series and is set to be published on June 14, 2016. And after reading this story you will definitely be counting down the days until the second book "Away From the Dark" is released later in the fall.
This novel is due to be published on June 14, 2016.

» Barbers Point Naval Air Station
Barbers Point Naval Air Station
Historical Name of Location Kapolei, Oahu, Hawaii
Contributor: David Stubblebine
ww2dbaseThe low Ewa plain on Oahu's southwest shore is perhaps the driest area of the island. Attempts to develop the area for agriculture had mixed results. In 1925, the United States Navy leased 150 acres and erected a 100-foot mooring mast for airships, later shortened to 50-feet but never used to moor an airship. In September 1940, the Navy bought 3,500 acres adjacent to the mooring mast for use in Navy and Marine Corps aviation. The area surrounding the mooring mast was developed into Marine Corps Air Station Ewa, commissioned Feb 3, 1941, and the other end of the property would become Naval Air Station Barbers Point.
ww2dbaseWork began on the naval airstrip in November 1941 with plans for it to be an Outlying Landing Field for the Ford Island Naval Air Station. By Dec 7, 1941 construction had barely begun so the station escaped damage in the Japanese attack. Following the attack, as the Navy moved onto a war footing, crews and material were pulled from Barbers Point and applied to expanding the Marine base at Ewa Field. Work quickly resumed at Barbers Point with adjusted plans for it to be a training base on a scale to surpass Ford Island. The station was commissioned Apr 15, 1942 even before the facility was fully operational. Much of the training and maintenance being administered by the Barbers Point Air Station was actually taking place at the neighboring Marine Corps Air Station Ewa until Barbers Point could be built up enough to handle its own work. Construction continued and would continue throughout the war.
ww2dbaseOperations at Barbers Point initially centered on working up carrier air groups and squadrons for carrier deployment in combat areas further west. Four months after opening, Barbers Point was capable of accommodating more than four carrier air groups at the same time and that capacity continued to grow. The station became one of the busiest air bases in the world, at one point handling more take-offs and landings in a 24 hour period than known of at any other airfield during the war.
ww2dbaseBarbers Point also became the center of the Navy's aircraft maintenance operations. Chief among the maintenance facilities was the engine overhaul shop. Even though the shop was not opened until late in the war, in October 1944, it was still able to perform complete overhauls on 2,500 of the finicky radial engines and in its best month, 345 engines. The Assembly and Repair Department put so many aircraft into service, both new and refurbished, that the station opened a 150 acre plane-pool storage area near Iroquois Point.
ww2dbaseNumerous Navy and Marine Air Groups were serviced at Barbers Point during the war but the facilities were not limited to these services. At least three US Army Pursuit Squadrons were stationed at Barbers Point early in the war, leaving in February 1943. They flew coastal defense sorties and were in a constant alert status. In April and May of 1943, three Royal Navy carrier squadrons from HMS Victorious ("USS Robin") underwent overhaul and night flying training at Barbers Point.
ww2dbaseAircraft maintenance and flight training were vital functions but Barbers Point also saw some innovative aviation projects during the war. Drone aircraft were tested there, largely intended as airborne targets, and experiments with jet propulsion on airplanes were taking place as early as Dec 1944.
ww2dbaseMechanics of Carrier Aircraft Service Units (CASUs) were trained and staged at Barbers Point prior to deployment to carriers and forward air bases. Special SeaBee units, ACORN, ARGUS and GROPAC units also went through Barbers Point where they were readied for their final deployment. These were specialized units designated to quickly create and then operate air bases in forward areas, vital component in Nimitz' island hopping strategy. While Pearl Harbor was the Navy's wartime hub for everything pertaining to ships of the Fleet, the corresponding hub for all things related to Naval aviation was Barbers Point.
ww2dbaseBy the end of the war, the main runway at Barbers Point, directly in line with the prevailing trade winds, was among the largest in the Pacific, at 1,000 feet wide and 8,300 feet long. As combat units were demobilized and being routed back to the United States, Barbers Point became the preferred stopping point for returning Army B-29 Superfortress aircraft. So well suited was Barbers Point for the large bombers that by 1947, weekly B-29 training flights were initiated from Davis-Monthan Field near Tucson, Arizona, United States to Barbers Point Naval Air Station and back, a round trip of 6,000 miles.
ww2dbaseBarbers Point resumed many of its familiar naval aviation support functions during the Korean conflict and again during Vietnam. The air station remained the Navy's principal land-based air facility in the central Pacific throughout the Cold War but with the downsizing that followed the collapse of the Soviet bloc, Barbers Point was closed on Jul 1, 1999. The facility was turned over to the State of Hawaii and became Kalaeola Airport with the Navy's air functions transferred to Marine Corps Base Hawaii in Kaneohe, but the United States Coast Guard still (2013) operates an air station at Barbers Point.

Featuring: Javier Bardem, Belen Rueda, Lola Dueñas, Mabel Rivera, Celso Bugallo
Director: Alejandro Amenábar
Producer: Fernando Bovaira, Alejandro Amenábar
Distributor: Fine Line Features
Here's what the distributor says about their film: "Based on the profoundly moving true story that captured the world's attention, THE SEA INSIDE is about Spaniard Ramón Sampedro (played by Oscar® nominee Javier Bardem), who fought a 30-year campaign to win the right to end his life with dignity. THE SEA INSIDE is the story of Ramón's relationships with two women: Julia (Belén Rueda) a lawyer who supports his cause, and Rosa (Lola Dueñas), a local woman who wants to convince him that life is worth living. Through the gift of his love, these two women are inspired to accomplish things they never previously thought possible. Despite his wish to die, Ramón taught everyone he encountered the meaning, value and preciousness of life. Though he could not move himself, he had an uncanny ability to move others. A truly joyous experience, THE SEA INSIDE celebrates the nature of freedom and love, and the mystery and beauty of life."
This film was adapted from Ramon Sampedro's book Letters From Hell.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11.
God has a way of waking people up; we sometimes get ahead of Him, and He is forced to intervene to get our attention. With non-believers, sometimes He uses the intervention as a wake-up call to change and to turn to Him. People (non-Christians) may be living great lives and have everything going for them, but are brought to their knees when everything falls apart around them. It is in these times that God is begging for their attention, for them to recognize their need for Him. God has plans for their lives and wants to use them greatly, but they first have to notice Him.
God knew that the moment Ramon Sampedro jumped off the rocks into the peaceful sea below he would never walk again, never live life the same way. "The Sea Inside" is Alejandro Amenabar's (The Others) account of the struggles of Spaniard Ramon Sampedro to die "with dignity." Ramon (Javier Bardem) was paralyzed in a diving accident. When we meet him, it has been almost 30 years since the accident, and Ramon has spent ever day of those thirty years lying helplessly in bed, at the mercies of his caring family. We learn right away that he has been searching for a lawyer so that he can attempt to be granted legal permission to end his life "with dignity."
He is a confident man, who exudes genuine charm and warmth from the confines of his bed. Yet, he feels that his life has no dignity, no redemptive value, and wants the right to end it without being viewed in a shameful light by the rest of society. His lawyer is Julia (Belen Rueda), who takes his case for free because, we learn, she may understand his pain more than she lets on. She has an assistant, who ends up doing most of the legal work, while Julia and Ramon form a close relationship, even while Julia's patient, caring husband waits at home. Another woman comes into Ramon's life, Rosa (Lola Duenas), who sees Ramon plead his case on television and wants to be his friend, and convince him that life is worth living. She is a rather lonely woman who uses Ramon almost as her service project to somehow redeem her admittedly miserable existence. Ramon tells her that she is no friend of his if she does not respect his right to die.
Ramon comes across as a genuinely nice man, at first, but we learn he is really only that way to those who agree with him. His father and brother want nothing to do with Ramon's case, because they don't think he has the right to take his own life. They also seem somewhat exasperated after years of helping Ramon, who to them comes across as ungrateful for all they have done for him. Ramon's father is the one character in the movie I sympathized with, and he delivers the most touching, heartfelt line of the movie. While the family and lawyers are sitting around the table discussing Ramon's legal strategies, he says somberly, to no one in particular "You know what is the one thing worse than having your son die on you? Him wanting to."
"The Sea Inside" is a technical success. Javier Bardem is stunning as Ramon. He spends the majority of the film in bed, and yet his real acting job is done with his eyes and facial expressions. We believe that Ramon is a charming man who could make a woman fall for him, because Bardem makes us believe it. The film is also shot beautifully, with the cameras swooping around the Spanish valleys and hills and water as Ramon flies "in his mind" to the beach, the place he loves.
The musical score is a bit too much, and tends to overemphasize some scenes by blaring its haunting dirge almost nonstop. It is a beautiful, don't get me wrong, but it would have been best suited for scenes of special importance, not every five minutes.
The content of the film is very mild. There is very little language; I can only remember one subtitled "s" word. Sexual content is almost nonexistent, although Ramon does put his hand down Julia's shirt, saying he is feeling her heartbeat. There is no violence, but there is the disturbing scene, played a couple times, of Ramon diving into the ocean and hitting the sandy floor. The PG-13 rating of this film is mainly due to the subject material, and Christians should be prepared for it before viewing.
I went into the film with an open mind, hoping the film would be more about him, and his life, than about his wish to die. But, the film makes its message very clear early on: people should have the right to do with their lives whatever they want, and anyone who thinks otherwise needs to mind their own business. Ramon got very little sympathy from me; his character is maddeningly smug, and seems to go about his business not to die with dignity, but almost to die with more attention.
There are some religious characters in the film, including a quadriplegic priest who tries to convince Ramon that life is worth living. However, they are seen as meddling, narrow-minded conservatives who run their lives on old-fashion mode.
I cannot recommend the film, not necessarily because of the message it delivered, but because of the way it went about doing it.
God had a plan for Ramon's life, yet Ramon cared little for it. He made it clear he didn't believe in God or an afterlife, and lived his last thirty years with an almost "woe is me" mindset. I have come across a number of quadriplegics in my life, and all have been Christians. They have exuded such warmth and happiness and love for life and God that I couldn't help but feel sad for Ramon. He simply didn't get it.
God has given us a life worth living, a life worth staying alive for. Things may not always go our way, and sometimes God may have to do something drastic to get our attention. But the joys we are in for, once God does finally get our attention, far outweigh the alternative, and we wish people like Ramon would just realize it before it's too late.
Negative—In response to Hamlet's query "To Be or Not to Be" the famous Christian writer G. K. Chesterton declared that "the answer is to be." This year's motion picture academy awarded its best picture and best foreign picture awards to films which answered the Dane's soul search with a nihilistic "not to be." This is the second year in a row (last years' winner for best foreign film, "The Barbarian Invasions" was also a pro-euthanasia film) that the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film has been given to a work that is an ode to active suicide and to assisted suicide. Such is progress.
"For when I am weak, then I am strong" (2 Corinthians 12:9).
The hero of "The Sea Inside" becomes quadriplegic after a diving accident. He lives for 27 years after the accident. That is an accomplishment in itself. He fulfills the lives of his family and friends. He writes a book. Perhaps he could write another.
Instead he chooses to commit suicide, and he enlists the help of a poor woman to mix the fatal drink for him. She is a pawn in the same way that all the characters in this story are pawns—pawns of a director who wants to make a point and to grind an axe.
"Million Dollar Baby" falls apart when Clint Eastwood tries to present the other side of the argument. Hollowness presented in earnest is still hollow. "The Sea Inside" falls apart in the first frame. There is no argument, as we see when the quadriplegic priest enters the picture. I was educated by Jesuits, and despite flaws, they are not stupid and not easily silenced in an argument. Javier Bardem, one of our finest film actors, makes a mess of the character he plays. His handsome but uneven features are unable to put a believable face on human suffering.
Christopher Reeve and Michael J. Fox and John Paul II have given human suffering a human face, and they did not or have not shrunk from their challenges (crosses), even when some of us say, "I wouldn't want to live like that." "Million Dollar Baby" and "The Sea Inside" tell us that we can make a choice about whether we live or die. Of course we can, but these filmmakers lose their footing if they confront the meaning of that choice. Right now, these 2 films are fashionable, which means they are products of their times. I doubt that either will become a classic. If euthanasia and assisted suicide are not passing fashions, much more than the future of Hollywood is at stake.
My Ratings: Very Offensive/2½

…Humanist pro-Death propaganda… The filmmakers also lovingly promote Sampedro's humanist views against the existence of God and the existence of an after-life.
Dr. Tom Snyder, Movieguide
…poignant portrait, notable for its restraint… nowhere near as depressing as a plot synopsis makes it sound…
Leah McLaren, Globe and Mail
…it's such a repetitive and thinly constructed piece of filmmaking that the scope and complexity of Sampedro's case are turned to porridge…

Drexel Players annually take action against HIV/AIDS by participating in AIDS Walk Philly together.
Aren't we all so happy looking for being up at 8 in the morning!
This past summer a bunch of Drexel Players had the oppurtunity to team up with the University of the Arts and Theatre professionals on a developmental musical theater workshop of Leading Lady.
The musical Leading Lady was directed and produced by Theater Professor Bill Fennelly who worked with composer and lyricist Charles Gilbert and writer P. Seth Bauer – both theatre faculty members from the University of the Arts who began working on Desmond's story in the summer of 2010. The workshop also engaged music director Owen Robbins, as well as dramaturge Ed Sobel, currently the Associate Artistic Director at The Arden Theater, and culminated with several public performances in late September.
The workshop was a great opportunity to work with professionals: Clare O'Malley, Alex Bechtel, Jim Bergwell and D'Arcy Webb.
Learn more about the musical here.
We returned to the Fringe this past September!
The Drexel Players conceived, produced, wrote and performed Parts: A Speed-Through, as part of the Philadelphia Fringe Festival 2013. Parts: A Speed-Through took an inside look at the relationships that young theater artists share as they produce a fictional theater show. Co-written and co-directed by Alumi James Haro and Laurel Hostak, Parts began as a "slightly skewed self-portrait of the Drexel Players".
Parts was a great learning experience for all envolved and we got a fantastic review from Phindie, and I believe the phrase "Thank the theater gods for the Drexel Players" was used... so there's that!
Check out #dpparts for more Parts Photos!

Kingswood is a large neighborhood just north of West Paces Ferry and west of Northside Drive. One of Atlanta's most popular neighborhoods because of its proximity to several private schools, Kingswood homes are a healthy mix of estate homes and newer constructions. Whether old or new, most homes are large with plenty of land and mature trees and landscaping.
Tophat Soccer Club is within walking distance, and Nancy Creek runs throughout Kingswood, providing hours of outdoor fun for the whole family. The Westminster School, Pace Academy, The Galloway School, and The Lovett School are within close range to Kingswood, as well.


6 to 8 weeks. You'll receive a preview with a dozen or so proofs within a week of the event.
Typically 50 to 100 photos per hour. If you have a larger bridal party that can add to the number of portraits, but most weddings fall somewhere around 600 images.
Unless I'm with Sloane I prefer to work alone. Hiring an additional eye is something we can discuss in consultation based on venue and budget.
Do you shoot Film? WHat camera do you have?
Yes. If you would like a film heavy gallery that can be accommodated. Primarily I shoot a Canon 5D Mark III with an assortment of prime lenses.
Versatile. One of my pet peeves about wedding photography is the reduction of the definition, and expectation of "fine art" to mean "light and airy" or faux film presets. I like shadow detail and maintaining highlight integrity alike. I'm most concerned with quality of light and producing images and files that will stand the test of time. I'm more hands on than a photojournalist, but adore catching candid moments. What's most important is each frame telling its part of the story. Ultimately, I would describe my style as classic documentary with a lust for Dutch Golden Age light.
Yes. All delivered images will be toned and color corrected. I work in Lightroom and love tinkering with levels.
Est. 2015, I've had a camera since 2008.
Do you do weddings full time?
No. I work for a magazine during the week. You can find my clips and design work elsewhere on this site. I also do photography for a number of business partners and brands. I love doing headshots and environmental lifestyle shoots when I can.
Who is Ruth? Why "Orion"?
Ruth is my middle name. Orion is in lieu of getting a tattoo of the constellation because my dad would kill me. I like the story(ies), the elusive hunter with no standardized poetic legacy but so clearly recognized in the winter sky, adjacent to Gemini. The idea that sunlight could heal blindness, etc.

Liga MX Apertura 2018: Team of the Season
The regular season is over, a champion is days away from being crowned and the FMF State of Mind crew's picks are in for the Liga MX Team of the Season.
By Antonio Tinajero@antonio1998__ Dec 13, 2018, 7:00am PST
Share All sharing options for: Liga MX Apertura 2018: Team of the Season
The 2018 Apertura is quickly leaving us. Just a few days remain before a new champion is crowned. The regular season ended a few weeks ago, but there are still questions that need answering, including, who were the best 11 players of the semester? Each one of our staff writers picked their best XI of the season (with some reserves) and we have taken those results to make the perfect Liga MX All-Star team. These players were leaders in their positions and fundamental in helping their squads acheive success this season, all while shining themselves. Without further ado, here are our picks for the 2018 Apertura Team of the Season.
Goalkeeper:
Tiago Volpi, Querétaro
The Brazilian shot-stopper's miraculous saves and man-of-the-match-worthy performances week in and week out keep him at the top of the list of best goalies. Volpi racked up the third-most saves during the regular season (73) behind Lobos' Antonio Rodriguez and Morelia's Sebastian Sosa (both with 86), but his six clean sheets helped lead Queretaro to just its fourth liguilla berth in its history. His mere presence on the goal line makes set-piece goals and penalties twice as hard for opponents. Corona may have had a better defensive line, Marchesin and Gudiño may have soaked up media coverage in big moments, but Volpi right now is the guy you want at No. 1.
José de Jesús Corona (Cruz Azul), Raúl Gudiño (Chivas), Agustín Marchesín (America), Sebastián Sosa (Morelia)
Adrián Aldrete, Cruz Azul
At 30 years old, Aldrete is going into the tail end of his career and may not ever get to wear an El Tri jersey again. Even though his national team days are numbered, that doesn't discount his first-rate league play. Aldrete was a part of the best defensive line in the league, allowing just 13 goals all season. He had no trouble contributing up the pitch as well, assisting four goals and blessed with a masterful long shot that always puts opposing teams on edge during corners.
Pablo Aguilar, Cruz Azul
Aguilar is at his fourth Liga MX team, but wherever he goes he makes a huge impact. This year was no different. The former Xolo was one of Cruz Azul's most important signings of the summer. With three goals to his name and having started all 21 of Cruz Azul's matches, Aguilar is untouchable. He's as solid a center back as they come and a natural-born winner, having already collected two Liga MX titles, two CONCACAF Champions League titles, a Paraguayan league title and a Copa MX. Will he add another Liga MX medal to his accumulation?
Bruno Valdez, Club América
How many center backs do you know lead their team in scoring? Well, you're about to meet two of them. First up is Valdez, who possesses one of, if not, the best header in the country. If there is a set piece or a corner kick, you better mark him (if you can), because it never goes well for the opposition when it doesn't. Seven goals to his name so far this season, three of which have come in the playoffs. The Paraguayan international is definitely one to watch in this week's final two-game series, and his deadly header could just make the difference in the end.
Nicolás Sánchez, Monterrey

From an already crowded Monterrey backline emerged Nico Sanchez, who played in every game this season for Rayados for the first time in his Liga MX career. The former River Plate and Racing defender mirrors Valdez with seven goals this season, most of which have come from headers. Not only that, but Sanchez has become Monterrey's consistent first-choice penalty taker, a position the northern club desperately needed filling. He's become more than a great player, but a vocal leader and a dependable force in Diego Alonso's starting XI.
Gabriel Achilier (Morelia), Hugo Ayala (Tigres), José Javier Abella (Santos), Emanuel Aguilera (America)
Guido Rodríguez, Club América
Rodriguez has everything you could want in a defensive midfielder: he's a tough-minded enforcer, posseses high passing accuracy and a MEAN long shot. This was truly a breakout season for the Argentine international as he established himself a true superstar on both ends for the club. A player who was known for being a hothead, Rodriguez has toned that down this season and was on the receiving end of only three yellow cards. He's crucial to the America midfield and has played every single minute of the Apertura. Don't be surprised if Rodriguez plays a big role or has some special moments in the final two games against La Maquina.
Elías Hernández, Cruz Azul
If this was a list of the best El Tri players this season, Hernandez would be no where near it. Fortunetely for him, this is a list of the best Liga MX players and El Patrullero is SO GOOD in Liga MX. Much like his teammates Aldrete and Aguilar, Hernandez has become a key player in every team he has been a part of. He is arguably Cruz Azul's best signing of the summer and the motor of La Maquina's attack. Six goals and seven assists this season don't even begin to discuss his talent. Hernandez is great in 1v1 duels, winning 16 of them over the course of the season and has also won 15 balls in rival territory, according to CITEC. If Las Aguilas have to fear one man, it has to be Elias.
Víctor Guzmán, Pachuca
Let's go back in time: Jan. 28, 2018. Pachuca was one goal down against Tigres, but in the 60th minute, an ACL injury forced Guzman out of the game and cost him not only the rest of the season, but a trip to the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Guzman was already one of Mexico's crown jewels in the league, and a spot in Juan Carlos Osorio's 23-man roster was almost certain. However, many wondered whether he would come back the same player. He returned this season and put any and all of those doubts to rest: Nine goals, five assists, 77 percent passing accuracy and 79 percent of tackles won per game. He has the most potential of any Mexican player playing this side of the hemisphere, and one has to wonder whether his time in Liga MX will come to an end sometime soon. Apparently, Europe's already calling.
Roberto Alvarado (Cruz Azul), Diego Lainez (America), Guido Pizarro (Tigres)
Franco Jara, Pachuca
This spot could have gone to any of our honorable mentions below, but Jara received the most votes. El Jinete, as he's known, linked up with Pocho Guzman to become one of the deadliest offensive duos in the country with 18 goals between them. He's a classic No. 9 with great playmaking skills as well. Pachuca had a great season with Jara leading the way and the team should have made the playoffs, but a couple of bad losses over the course of the year and a choke job against Leon in the last Jornada kept them out. It's a real shame. Cruz Azul would have had a much harder time keeping up with Los Tuzos and Jara.
André-Pierre Gignac, Tigres UANL
The top scorer of the league, Gignac found the back of the net 14 times. He was one of two players (Guzman) to score FOUR goals in a single game (vs. Puebla). With Tigres' slew of options up front, Gignac's position on the pitch has morphed into a more conservative role over the years, but the goals still find a way to keep on coming. The Frenchman is a true modern icon in Tigres and in Mexican soccer, and even at 33 years old, he looks to be getting even better with age.
Julio Furch, Santos Laguna
For much of the season, Furch held the title of No. 1 goalscorer until the final weeks. When Liga MX-winning manager Robert Siboldi parted ways with Santos, many skeptics thought it spelled doom for the defending champions. Little did they know just the kind of season awaited Furch. 12 goals in the league, five assists, and when paired with Jonathan Rodriguez, Santos quickly picked up steam and never looked back. Los Guerreros finished fourth in the league and Furch's incredible headers, positioning and crafty work inside the area cemented the possibly soon-to-be Mexican as the best poacher in Liga MX.
Jonathan Rodríguez (Santos), Carlos González (Pumas), Camilo Sanvezzo (Queretaro)

Pedro Caixinha
No matter who lifts up the trophy Dec. 16, we have all witnessed one of the best team turnarounds of the past few years. In Caixinha's first season in Mexico City, Cruz Azul finished 12th in the league and won just five games. After a summer filled with 10 signings, six of which who immediately contributed to the squad, Caixinha led Cruz Azul to a eight-game unbeaten run at the beginning of the season, 11 total wins, a first-place finish, a Copa MX title, a league-low 13 goals allowed and a trip to the Liga MX final for the first time in over five years. He's already a hero to every Maquina fan, and should his side reign victorious this weekend, he'll be anything short of a legend for ending the painful 20-year title drought that has haunted Cruz Azul for far too long.
Rafael Puente, Jr. (Queretaro), Salvador Reyes, Jr. (Santos)
Player of the Season
André-Pierre Gignac
There's a couple of players that come to mind when you think of soccer stars that are above the competition in their league. Think Carlos Vela, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Josef Martinez in the MLS. Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in Ligue 1. Possibly Hirving Lozano in the Eredivisie. That's what APG10 is in the Liga MX. He may have off games, but when he's on, he's on another level. This was Gignac's most successful regular season in terms of goals scored, and his games against Veracruz, Queretaro, America and Puebla show off his best performances this season. Super saison, André. Nous nous attendons à plus l'année prochaine!

One major difference between the types of system is that data warehouses are not usually in third normal form (3NF), a type of data normalization common in Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) environments.
Data warehouses are designed to accommodate ad hoc queries. You might not know the workload of your data warehouse in advance, so a data warehouse should be optimized to perform well for a wide variety of possible query operations. OLTP systems support only predefined operations. Your applications might be specifically tuned or designed to support only these operations.
A data warehouse is updated on a regular basis by the ETL process (run every 15 minutes, nightly, weekly). The end users of a data warehouse do not directly update the data warehouse. In OLTP systems, end users routinely issue individual data modification statements to the database. The OLTP database is always up to date, and reflects the current state of each business transaction.
Data warehouses often use denormalized or partially denormalized schemas (such as a star schema) to optimize query performance by avoiding join and using techniques as star_transformation. OLTP systems often use fully normalized schemas to optimize update/insert/delete performance, and to guarantee data consistency.
Data warehouses usually store many months or years of data. This is to support historical analysis. OLTP systems usually store data from only a few weeks or months. The OLTP system stores only historical data as needed to successfully meet the requirements of the current transaction.
In general, index access paths should be used for statements that retrieve a small subset of table rows, while full scans are more efficient when accessing a large portion of the table. Online transaction processing (OLTP) applications, which consist of short-running SQL statements with high selectivity, often are characterized by the use of index access paths.
Decision support systems, on the other hand, tend to use partitioned tables and perform full scans of the relevant partitions.

Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde è l'album d'esordio del gruppo hip hop statunitense The Pharcyde, pubblicato il 24 novembre 1992. Distribuito dalla Delicious Vinyl Records, l'album, prodotto dall'ex membro del gruppo J-Swift, presenta la collaborazione del solo artista esterno Bucwheed (noto anche come "Buckwheat" dei The Wascals). Negli anni successivi alla pubblicazione, Bizarre Ride diviene secondo critici e appassionati un classico del genere assieme a 93 'til Infinity dei Souls of Mischief, venendo inserito in diverse liste dei "migliori album".

Pubblicato durante l'era dominante del Gangsta rap della West Coast, Bizarre Ride è descritto come «rinfrescante» per la sua giocosa, umoristicamente leggera e lussureggiante, produzione dal suono jazz. Assieme ad album come To Whom It May Concern... dei Freestyle Fellowship e I Wish My Brother George Was Here di Del tha Funkee Homosapien, Bizarre Ride contribuisce a creare una nuova scena alternativa nella West Coast, seguito da artisti come Hieroglyphics, The Coup e Jurassic 5. Nonostante il successo da parte della critica, l'album produce vendite moderate, non andando oltre la posizione numero 75 della Billboard 200 nel 1993. Tuttavia, anche grazie al secondo singolo, Passin' Me By, il 28 marzo del 1996 Bizarre Ride è certificato come disco d'oro dalla RIAA.

Background
Gli amici di scuola "Slimkid3" (Tre Hardson), "Imani" (Emandu Wilcox) e "Bootie Brown" (Romye Robinson) iniziano la loro carriera nell'industria spettacolo come ballerini e coreografi sotto il nome di "Two For Two", facendo numerose apparizioni nei video musicali. La loro maggior esposizione mediatica arriva lavorando per un breve periodo nello show televisivo In Living Color. Mentre lavorano allo show, i tre incontrano il loro futuro manager Suave, road manager di Candyman e Tone Lōc. Il trio incontra Derrick "Fatlip" Stewart e il produttore John "J-Swift" Martinez in un programma musicale del doposcuola chiamato South Central Unit. Reggie Andrews, il professore del programma, insegna al gruppo gli elementi essenziali dell'industria musicale, e in seguito supervisiona le sessioni di scrittura e di registrazione del gruppo. Mentre frequenta il South Central Unit, il gruppo registra il suo primo demo, che include la traccia Ya Mama. Nel 1991, il gruppo firma un contratto con la Delicious Vinyl Records, in seguito a una performance della canzone Ya Mama in un'esibizione. Poco dopo, il gruppo fa la sua prima apparizione degna di nota, con la traccia Soul Flower inserita nell'album Heavy Rhyme Experience dei Brand New Heavies.

Registrazione
I quattro mc, assieme al produttore J-Swift, iniziano a registrare il loro album d'esordio nel 1991 allo studio californiano Hollywood Sound, con la Delicious Vinyl Records di Michael Ross a supervisione del progetto come produttore esecutivo. J-Swift produce dieci canzoni e cinque interludi sulle sedici tracce totali. Prima del completamento dell'album, Swift litiga con i membri del gruppo per problemi interni. Afferma che non è stato ricompensato adeguatamente per il proprio lavoro e che gli altri membri del gruppo vogliono cercare di prendere il merito delle produzioni, quando avrebbe realizzato tutte le basi. Dopo aver lasciato i Pharcyde, J-Swift inizia a fare uso di crack, non riuscendo ancora a disintossicarsi.

Senza un produttore o un prodotto finito, il gruppo recluta il produttore locale L.A. Jay per finire l'album con l'ultima traccia, Otha Fish, co-prodotta da SlimKid 3.

Ricezione

Critica
All'epoca della pubblicazione, Bizarre Ride ricevette recensioni per lo più positive, anche se alle volte contrastanti. Negli anni successivi all'uscita dell'album, la critica specializzata divenne sempre più positiva verso Bizarre Ride. Diverse pubblicazioni del settore riconobbero l'album come un classico del genere. Bizarre Ride è stato inserito nella lista di Pitchfork "Top 100 Favorite Records of the 90s" ed è presente nella pubblicazione del 2005 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

La rivista hip hop The Source originariamente aveva dato all'album un umile rating di 3 e mezzo su 5 mic, ma nel 1998 incluse Bizarre Ride nella lista dei 100 migliori album rap. AllMusic da un voto perfetto di cinque stelle, mentre Rolling Stone e Q gli assegnano quattro stelle su cinque. Entertainment Weekly vota Bizarre II con una "B", per Pitchfork Media l'album è da 8.8/10.

Secondo NME, che assegna un voto di 7/10 al primo lavoro dei Phacyde, l'album è il trentanovesimo dei "migliori 50 LP del 1993".

Nel novembre 2010, Kanye West disse che Bizarre Ride era il suo «album preferito di sempre».

Influenza
Mentre gli album alternative rap dell'East Coast come 3 Feet High and Rising dei De La Soul ultimamente vendevano un milione di copie non c'erano equivalenti nella West Coast. Con Bizarre Ride, The Pharcyde diventano il primo gruppo alternative rap a vendere un grande numero di album nella West Coast. Anche se Bizarre Ride raggiunge la certificazione d'oro della RIA, le vendite dell'album sono molto minori rispetto alle pubblicazioni g-funk come The Chronic di Dr. Dre e Doggystyle di Snoop Dogg.

Bizarre Ride apre la carriera dei The Pharcyde, ma il gruppo non tenta di capitalizzare l'ottima critica ricevuta per l'album. In seguito alla pubblicazione, il gruppo parte per un tour concluso al Lollapalooza 1994 e aspetta altri tre anni prima di pubblicare l'album successivo, Labcabincalifornia. Questo album è caratterizzato da due singoli di successo apprezzati, Runnin''' e Drop, pur ricevendo recensioni contrastanti. I critici confrontano questo album con quello d'esordio e secondo molti l'album Labcabincalifornia diviene vittima della "sindrome del secondo album".

Dopo la pubblicazione di quest'ultimo album, Fatlip decide di uscire dal gruppo e i Pharcyde non ritornano fino al 2000, quando pubblicano l'album Plain Rap che riceve recensioni mediocri. Anche se l'album vede il ritorno della collaborazione tra il gruppo e J-Swift, Bootie Brown e Imani hanno un diverbio con SlimKid prima che l'album venga pubblicato, lasciando il gruppo in due. Nel 2004, Imani e Bootie pubblicano un quarto album sotto il nome The Pharcyde, Humboldt Beginnings, che riceve poche attenzioni e critiche pesanti. In seguito SlimKid e Fatlip hanno entrambi pubblicato album solisti, ma nessun progetto pubblicato dal gruppo o da uno dei suoi membri sin dall'esordio riuscì ad arrivare al successo di critica che aveva avuto ottenuto Bizarre Ride''.
