50 DAYS OF COACHELLA ARTISTS: Radiohead – #31
From Wikipedia.com
Radiohead are an English rock band from ampoule Oxfordshire" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abingdon, pharm _Oxfordshire">Abingdon, viagra Oxfordshire, formed in 1985. The band consists of Thom Yorke (vocals, guitars, keyboards), Jonny Greenwood (guitars, keyboards, other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitars, backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass) and Phil Selway (drums, percussion).
Radiohead released their debut single "Creep" in 1992. The song was initially unsuccessful, but it became a worldwide hit several months after the release of their debut album, Pablo Honey (1993). Radiohead's popularity rose in the United Kingdom with the release of their second album, The Bends (1995). Radiohead's third album, OK Computer (1997), propelled them to greater international fame. Featuring an expansive sound and themes of modern alienation, OK Computer is often acclaimed as one of the landmark records of the 1990s.[1]
Kid A (2000) and Amnesiac (2001) marked an evolution in Radiohead's musical style, as the group incorporated experimental electronic music, Krautrock and jazz influences. Kid A, though somewhat polarizing at the time of its release, is now frequently recognized as one of the most important albums of the 2000s.[2] Hail to the Thief (2003), a mix of piano and guitar driven rock, electronics and lyrics inspired by war, was the band's final album for their major record label, EMI. Radiohead self-released their seventh album, In Rainbows (2007), as a digital download for which customers could set their own price, and later in physical form to critical and chart success. Radiohead's eighth album, The King of Limbs (2011), was an exploration of rhythm and quieter textures, which the band released independently.
Radiohead have sold more than 30 million albums worldwide,[3] and the band's work has been placed highly in both listener polls and critics' lists, and the band have the distinction of doing so in both the 1990s and 2000s.[4][5] In 2005, Radiohead were ranked number 73 in Rolling Stone's list of "The Greatest Artists of All Time", while Ed O'Brien and Jonny Greenwood were both included in Rolling Stone's list of greatest guitarists, and Thom Yorke in their list of greatest singers.[6] In 2009, Rolling Stone readers voted the group the second best artist of the 2000s.[7]
Formation and first years (1985–91)
Abingdon School, where the band formed
The musicians who formed Radiohead met while attending Abingdon School, an independent school for boys in Abingdon, Oxfordshire.[8] Thom Yorke and Colin Greenwood were in the same year, Ed O'Brien and Phil Selway were one year older and Jonny Greenwood two years younger than his brother. In 1985 they formed the band "On a Friday", the name referring to the band's usual rehearsal day in the school's music room.[9] The group played their first gig in late 1986 at Oxford's Jericho Tavern;[10] Jonny Greenwood originally joined as a harmonica and then keyboard player, but he soon became the lead guitarist.[9]
Although Yorke, O'Brien, Selway, and Colin Greenwood had left Abingdon by 1987 to attend university, the band continued to rehearse often on weekends and holidays.[11] In 1991, when all the members except Jonny had completed their university degrees, On a Friday regrouped, began to record demos such as Manic Hedgehog, and performed live gigs around Oxford at venues such as The Jericho Tavern. Oxfordshire and the Thames Valley had an active independent music scene in the late 1980s, but it centred around shoegazing bands such as Ride and Slowdive; On a Friday were never seen as fitting this trend, commenting that they had missed it by the time they returned from university.[12]
Nevertheless, as On a Friday's number of live performances increased, record labels and producers became interested. Chris Hufford, Slowdive's producer and the co-owner of Oxford's Courtyard Studios, attended an early On a Friday concert at the Jericho Tavern. Impressed by the band, he and his partner Bryce Edge produced a demo tape and became On a Friday's managers;[11] they remain the band's managers to this day. Following a chance meeting between Colin Greenwood and EMI A&R representative Keith Wozencroft at the record shop where Greenwood worked, the band signed a six-album recording contract with the label in late 1991.[11] At the request of EMI, the band changed their name to Radiohead, inspired by the title of a song on Talking Heads' True Stories album.[11] The song in turn was inspired by a story the actor, writer and director Stephen Tobolowsky told David Byrne about psychic experiences he had as a teenager.
Pablo Honey, The Bends and early success (1992–95)
Radiohead recorded their debut release, the Drill EP, with Chris Hufford and Bryce Edge at Courtyard Studios. Released in May 1992, its chart performance was very poor. Subsequently, the band enlisted Paul Kolderie and Sean Slade—who had worked with US indie bands Pixies and Dinosaur Jr.—to produce their debut album, recorded quickly in an Oxford studio in 1992.[9] With the release of the "Creep" single later that year, Radiohead began to receive attention in the British music press, not all of it favourable. NME described them as "a lily-livered excuse for a rock band",[13] and "Creep" was blacklisted by BBC Radio 1 because it was deemed "too depressing".[14]
The band released their debut album, Pablo Honey, in February 1993. It stalled at number 22 in the UK charts, as "Creep" and its anthemic follow-up singles "Anyone Can Play Guitar" and "Stop Whispering" failed to become major hits. "Pop Is Dead", a non-album single later disavowed by the band, sold equally poorly. Some critics compared the band's early style to the wave of grunge music popular in the early 1990s—to the extent of Radiohead being dubbed "Nirvana-lite"[15]—yet Pablo Honey failed to make either a critical or a commercial splash upon its initial release.[13] Despite shared influences with popular guitar-heavy acts, and some notice for Yorke's falsetto voice, the band toured only British universities and clubs.[16]
"Creep" was Radiohead's first hit. This sample features Jonny Greenwood's guitar distortion before the chorus. According to legend, the effects were an attempt to sabotage a song Greenwood initially disliked.[17]
In the first few months of 1993, Radiohead began to attract listeners elsewhere. "Creep" had been played very frequently on Israeli radio by influential DJ Yoav Kutner, and in March, after the song became a hit in that country's charts, Radiohead were invited to Tel Aviv for their first live gig overseas.[18] Around the same time, the San Francisco alternative radio station KITS added the song to its playlist. Soon other radio stations along the west coast of the United States followed suit. By the time Radiohead began their first North American tour in June 1993, the music video for "Creep" was in heavy rotation on MTV.[11] The song rose to number two on the US modern rock chart, entered the lower reaches of the top 40 pop chart, and finally hit number seven in the UK Singles Chart when EMI re-released it in the UK in September.[19]
Unexpected attention to the single in America caused the label to improvise new promotional plans, and the band shuttled back and forth between continents, playing over 150 concerts in 1993.[16] Radiohead nearly broke up due to the pressure of sudden success as the Pablo Honey supporting tour extended into its second year.[20] Band members described the tour as difficult to adjust to, saying that towards its end they were "still playing the same songs that [they had] recorded two years previously… like being held in a time warp", when they were eager to work on new songs.[21]
The band began work on their second album in 1994, hiring veteran Abbey Road Studios producer John Leckie. Tensions were high, with mounting expectations on the band to deliver a superior follow-up to match or exceed the success of "Creep".[22] Recording felt unnatural in the studio, band members having over-rehearsed their material.[23] They sought a change of scenery, touring the Far East, Australasia and Mexico in an attempt to reduce the pressure. The band found greater confidence performing their new music live.[23] However, confronted again by the fame he had achieved, Yorke became disillusioned at being "right at the sharp end of the sexy, sassy, MTV eye-candy lifestyle" he felt he was helping to sell to the world.[24]
My Iron Lung, an EP and single released late in 1994, was Radiohead's reaction, marking a transition towards the greater depth they aimed for on their second album.[25] Promoted through alternative radio stations, the hard-edged single's sales were better than expected, and suggested for the first time that the band had found a loyal fan base beyond one hit.[26] Having introduced more new songs on tour, Radiohead finished recording their second album by year's end, and they released The Bends in March 1995. The album was driven by dense riffs and ethereal atmospheres from the band's three guitarists, with greater use of keyboards than their debut.[9] It also received stronger reviews for both songwriting and performances.[13]
While Radiohead were seen as outsiders to the Britpop scene that dominated the media's attention at the time, they were finally successful in their home country with The Bends,[12] as singles "Fake Plastic Trees", "High and Dry", "Just", and "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" made their way to UK chart success; the latter song placed Radiohead in the top five for the first time. In 1995, Radiohead again toured North America and Europe, this time in support of R.E.M., one of their formative influences and at the time one of the biggest rock bands in the world.[21] The buzz generated by such famous fans as Michael Stipe, along with distinctive music videos for "Just" and "Street Spirit", helped to sustain Radiohead's popularity outside the UK.
However, Radiohead's growing fan base was insufficient for them to repeat the commercial popularity of "Creep" worldwide. "High and Dry" became a modest hit, but The Bends peaked at 88 on the US album charts, which remains Radiohead's lowest showing there.[27] Radiohead were satisfied with the album's reception. Jonny Greenwood said, "I think the turning point for us came about nine or twelve months after The Bends was released and it started appearing in people's [best of] polls for the end of the year. That's when it started to feel like we made the right choice about being a band".[28]
OK Computer, fame and critical acclaim (1996–98)
"Paranoid Android" is a three-part song, mixing acoustic guitars, abrasive electric solos and layered choirs. The first single from OK Computer, it marks Radiohead's UK singles chart peak (number three).
In late 1995, Radiohead had already recorded one song that would make their next record. "Lucky", released as a single to promote the War Child charity's The Help Album,[29] had come out of a brief session with Nigel Godrich, a young audio engineer who had assisted on The Bends and also produced a 1996 B-side, "Talk Show Host". The band decided to produce their next album with Godrich's assistance, and they began work in early 1996. By July they had recorded four songs at their rehearsal studio, Canned Applause, a converted apple shed in the countryside near Didcot, Oxfordshire.[30]
In August 1996, Radiohead toured as the opening act for Alanis Morissette, seeking to perfect their new songs live before completing the record. They then resumed recording, again outside a traditional music studio, settling instead at a 15th-century mansion, St. Catherine's Court, near Bath.[31] The recording sessions were relaxed, with the band playing at all hours of the day, recording songs in different rooms, and listening to The Beatles, DJ Shadow, Ennio Morricone and Miles Davis for inspiration.[9][28] Radiohead contributed "Talk Show Host", as well as a newly recorded song called "Exit Music (For a Film)", to Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of Romeo + Juliet late in the year. Most of the rest of the album was complete by the end of 1996, and by March 1997, the record was mixed and mastered.
Radiohead released their third album, OK Computer, in June 1997. Largely composed of melodic rock songs, the new record also found the band experimenting with song structures and incorporating some ambient, avant garde and electronic influences, prompting Rolling Stone to call the album a 'stunning art-rock tour de force.'[32] The album's lyrics took a more observational, less personal tone than The Bends, expressing what one magazine called "end-of-the-millennium blues".[33] OK Computer met with great critical acclaim, and Yorke admitted that he was "amazed it got the reaction it did. None of us fucking knew any more whether it was good or bad. What really blew my head off was the fact that people got all the things, all the textures and the sounds and the atmospheres we were trying to create."[34]
OK Computer was the band's first number one UK chart debut, propelling Radiohead to commercial success around the world. Despite peaking at number 21 in the US charts, the album eventually met with mainstream recognition there, receiving the first Grammy Awards recognition of the band's career, a win for Best Alternative Album and a nomination for Album of the Year.[35] "Paranoid Android", "Karma Police" and "No Surprises" were released as singles from the album, of which "Karma Police" was most successful internationally.[19] OK Computer is often acclaimed as one of the landmark records of the 1990s, and comparisons are sometimes drawn between Radiohead and Pink Floyd—specifically for OK Computer—which has been called The Dark Side of the Moon for the 1990s whereby the two albums share a common theme: the loss of a creative individual's ability to function in the modern world.[36][37][38]
The release of OK Computer was followed by the "Against Demons" world tour. Grant Gee, the director of the "No Surprises" video, accompanied and filmed the band, releasing the footage in the 1999 documentary Meeting People Is Easy.[39] The film portrays the band's disaffection with the music industry and press, showing their burnout as they progressed from their first tour dates in mid-1997 to mid-1998, nearly a year later.[9] The film is also notable for documenting earlier versions of songs that were never released or were not released until years later, such as "How to Disappear Completely", "Life in a Glasshouse", "I Will" and "Nude". During this time the band also released a music video compilation, 7 Television Commercials, as well as two EPs, Airbag/How Am I Driving? and No Surprises/Running from Demons, that compiled their B-sides from OK Computer singles.
Kid A, Amnesiac and a change in sound (1999–2001)
Jonny Greenwood has used a variety of instruments, such as this glockenspiel, in live concerts and recordings.
Radiohead were largely inactive following their 1997–1998 tour; after its end, their only public performance in 1998 was at an Amnesty International concert in Paris.[40] Yorke later admitted that during that period the band came close to splitting up, and that he had developed severe depression.[41] In early 1999, Radiohead began work on a follow-up to OK Computer. Although there was no longer any pressure or even a deadline from their record label, tension during this period was high. Band members all had different visions for Radiohead's future, and Yorke was experiencing writer's block, influencing him toward a more abstract, fragmented form of songwriting.[41] Radiohead secluded themselves with producer Nigel Godrich in studios in Paris, Copenhagen, and Gloucester, and in their newly completed studio in Oxford. Eventually, all the members agreed on a new musical direction, redefining their instrumental roles in the band.[15] After nearly 18 months, Radiohead's recording sessions were completed in April 2000.[41]
In October 2000 Radiohead released their fourth album, Kid A, the first of two albums from these recording sessions. Rather than being a stylistic sequel to OK Computer, Kid A featured a minimalist and textured style with less overt guitar parts and more diverse instrumentation including the ondes Martenot, programmed electronic beats, strings, and jazz horns.[41] It debuted at number one in many countries, including the US, where its debut atop the Billboard chart marked a first for the band and a rare success in the US by UK musicians.[42] This success was attributed variously to marketing, to the album's leak on the file-sharing network Napster a few months before its release, and to advance anticipation based, in part, on the success of OK Computer.[43][44][45] Although Radiohead did not release any singles from Kid A, promos of "Optimistic" and "Idioteque" received radio play, and a series of "blips", or short videos set to portions of tracks, were played on music channels and released freely on the Internet.[46] The band had read Naomi Klein's anti-globalisation book No Logo during the recording, and they decided to continue a summer 2000 tour of Europe later in the year in a custom-built tent free of advertising; they also promoted Kid A with three sold-out North American theatre concerts.[46]
"Everything in Its Right Place"
The opening track from Radiohead's fourth album, this song emphasises the band's increasing use of electronic music and distortions of Thom Yorke's vocals.
Kid A received a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Album and a nomination for Album of the Year in early 2001. It won both praise and criticism in independent music circles for appropriating underground styles of music; some mainstream British critics saw Kid A as a "commercial suicide note", labelling it "intentionally difficult" and longing for a return to the band's earlier style.[12][13] Radiohead's fans were similarly divided; along with those who were appalled or mystified, there were many who saw the album as the band's best work.[24][47] Yorke, however, denied that Radiohead had set out to eschew commercial expectations, saying, "I was really, really amazed at how badly [Kid A] was being viewed … because the music's not that hard to grasp. We're not trying to be difficult … We're actually trying to communicate but somewhere along the line, we just seemed to piss off a lot of people … What we're doing isn't that radical."[12]
Amnesiac, released in June 2001, comprised additional tracks from the Kid A recording sessions. Radiohead's musical style on these songs was similar to that of Kid A in their fusion of electronic music and jazz influences, though more reliant on the use of guitars. The record was a critical and commercial success worldwide, it topped the UK Albums Chart and reached number two in the US, being nominated for a Grammy Award and the Mercury Music Prize.[13][42] After Amnesiac's release, the band embarked on a world tour, visiting North America, Europe and Japan. Meanwhile, "Pyramid Song" and "Knives Out", Radiohead's first issued singles since 1998, were modestly successful, and "I Might Be Wrong", initially planned as a third single, expanded into Radiohead's thus far only live record. I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings, released in November 2001, featured performances of seven songs from Kid A and Amnesiac along with the acoustic, previously unreleased "True Love Waits".
Hail to the Thief and departure from EMI (2002–04)
An up-tempo, guitar-driven album opener, "2 + 2 = 5" heralded Radiohead's return to a more straightforward alternative rock style that still included electronic elements.
During July and August 2002, Radiohead toured Portugal and Spain, playing a number of newly written songs. They then recorded the new material in two weeks in a Los Angeles studio with Nigel Godrich, adding several tracks later in Oxford, where the band continued their work into the next year. Radiohead members described the recording process as relaxed, in contrast to the tense sessions for Kid A and Amnesiac.[8] The band's sixth album, Hail to the Thief, was released in June 2003. Mixing sounds from throughout their career, Hail to the Thief combined guitar-based rock with electronic influences and topical lyrics by Yorke.[48] Although the album was critically praised, many critics felt that Radiohead were treading water creatively rather than continuing the "genre-redefining" trend that OK Computer had begun.[49] Nevertheless, Hail to the Thief enjoyed commercial success, debuting at number one in the UK and number three on the Billboard chart and eventually being certified platinum in the UK and gold in the US. The album's singles, "There There", "Go to Sleep" and "2 + 2 = 5", achieved a level of play on modern rock radio. At the 2003 Grammy Awards, Radiohead were again nominated for Best Alternative Album, while producer Godrich and engineer Darrell Thorp received the Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album.[50]
Yorke denied that Hail to the Thief's title was a comment on the controversial 2000 US presidential election, explaining that he first heard the words in a BBC Radio 4 discussion of 19th century American politics.[8] Yorke said his lyrics had been affected by news reports of war in 2001 to 2002 and "the feeling that we are entering an age of intolerance and fear where the power to express ourselves in a democracy and have our voices heard is being denied us"[51] but said, "[Radiohead] didn't write a protest record, we didn't write a political record."[8] After the release of Hail to the Thief, Radiohead embarked in May 2003 on a world tour, including a headlining performance at the Glastonbury Festival. The tour finished in May 2004 with a performance at the Coachella Festival. During their tour, the band released COM LAG, an EP compiling most of their b-sides from the time. Following their tour, the band began writing and rehearsing in their Oxford studio but soon went on hiatus. Free of their label contract, Radiohead spent the remainder of 2004 resting with their families and working on solo projects.[52]
In Rainbows, independent work and "pay what you want" (2005–08)
Yorke in concert with Radiohead in 2006
Radiohead began work on their seventh album in February 2005.[52] In September 2005, the band recorded a piano-based song, "I Want None of This", for the War Child charity album Help: A Day in the Life. The album was sold online, with "I Want None of This" being the most downloaded track, although it was not released as a single.[53] Radiohead had already begun recording their next album on their own and then with producer Mark Stent. However, in late 2006, after touring Europe and North America and debuting 13 new songs there, the band resumed work with Nigel Godrich in London, Oxford and several rural locations in Somerset, England.[54] Work was finished in June 2007 and the recordings were mastered the following month.[55]
Radiohead's seventh album, In Rainbows, was released through the band's own website in October 2007 as a digital download for which customers could make whatever payment that they deemed appropriate (Pay what you want), including paying nothing at all; the site only advised, "it's up to you".[56] Following the band's sudden announcement 10 days beforehand, Radiohead's unusual strategy received much notice within the music industry and beyond.[57] 1.2 million downloads were reportedly sold by the day of release,[58] but the band's management did not release official sales figures, claiming that the Internet-only distribution was intended to boost later retail sales.[59] In a 2011 appearance on The Colbert Report, Ed O'Brien said of the self-distribution strategy: "We sell less records, but we make more money."[60] Colin Greenwood explained the Internet release as a way of avoiding the "regulated playlists" and "straightened formats" of radio and TV, ensuring fans around the world could all experience the music at the same time, and preventing leaks in advance of a physical release.[61] A "discbox", including a second disc from the recording sessions, vinyl and CD editions of the album, and a hardcover book of artwork, was also sold and shipped in late 2007.[62]
In Rainbows was physically released in the UK in late December 2007 on XL Recordings and in North America in January 2008 on TBD Records,[62] charting at number one both in the UK and in the US.[63][64] The record's success in the US marked Radiohead's highest chart success in that country since Kid A, while it was their fifth UK number one album. In Rainbows sold more than three million copies within one year of release.[65] In Rainbows also received extremely positive reviews, among the best of Radiohead's career; critics praised the album for having a more accessible sound and personal style of lyrics than their past work.[66] The album was nominated for the short list of the Mercury Music Prize,[67] and went on to win the 2009 Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album. Their production team won the Grammy for Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package, while Radiohead received their third nomination for Album of the Year. Along with three other nominations for the band, Godrich's production work and the "House of Cards" music video also received nominations.[68]
Radiohead released a number of singles from In Rainbows in support of the album; "Jigsaw Falling into Place", the first, was released in the UK in January 2008.[69] The second single, "Nude", debuted at number 37 in the Billboard Hot 100, Radiohead's first song to make that chart since 1995's "High and Dry" and their first top 40 hit in the US since "Creep".[19] Radiohead continued to put out tracks from In Rainbows as singles and videos; in July a digitally shot video for "House of Cards" was made available.[70] "House of Cards", along with "Bodysnatchers", also received a single release on radio. In September the band announced a fourth single, "Reckoner", and a remix competition similar to one organised for "Nude".[71] A greatest hits album, titled Radiohead: The Best Of, was released by EMI in June 2008.[72] The compilation was made without the input of the band and also did not contain any songs from In Rainbows, as the band had already left their label. Yorke expressed his disapproval on behalf of Radiohead: "We haven't really had any hits so what exactly is the purpose? … It's a wasted opportunity in that if we'd been behind it, and we wanted to do it, then it might have been good."[73] From mid-2008 to early 2009, Radiohead toured North America, Europe, Japan, Mexico and South America to promote In Rainbows. The band headlined the Reading and Leeds Festivals in August 2009.[58][74][75]
The King of Limbs (2009–present)
In May 2009, the band began new recording sessions with producer Nigel Godrich.[76] In August of that year, Radiohead released two singles from these sessions on their website. First, "Harry Patch (In Memory Of)", was recorded in tribute to Harry Patch, the last surviving British soldier to have fought in the First World War, who had recently died. The song was sold for £1, with proceeds donated to the British Legion.[77][78] "Harry Patch (In Memory Of)" featured Thom Yorke singing lyrics based on Patch's own statements about his war experience, over a string orchestra backdrop arranged by Jonny Greenwood. Later that month, a new song "These Are My Twisted Words", was made available as a free download. Jonny Greenwood explained that the song had been one of the first products of the band's recent studio sessions.[79]
In a mid-2009 NME interview, Yorke suggested that Radiohead would turn their focus from full length albums to releasing EPs, including the possibility of an EP of orchestral music.[80] In December that year, O'Brien stated on Radiohead's website that the band would begin work on their next album in January, "The vibe in the camp is fantastic at present, and we head off into the studio in January to continue on from the work we started last summer…10 years ago we were all collectively (that's the band) in the land of Kid A… and although hugely proud of that record, it wasn't a fun place to be…What's reassuring now, is that we are most definitely a different band, which should therefore mean that the music is different too and that is the aim of the game."[81] In an interview with BBC 6 Music in June 2010, Ed O'Brien made similar comments, that Radiohead were "in the heart of [recording] now". O'Brien also said the band hoped to be able to release the record by the end of the year.[82] In September 2010, Colin Greenwood mentioned that they had just finished a new set of songs and "have begun to wonder about how to release them in a digital landscape that has changed again".[61] Phil Selway added later that month that the band will "take stock" of the new material and said that it is all "up in the air".[83]
In January 2010, while Radiohead members were in Los Angeles to record, the band played their only gig of the year as a benefit for Oxfam. Tickets were auctioned to the highest bidders, allowing the show at L.A.'s Henry Fonda Theater to raise over half a million US dollars for the NGO's work in Haiti, which earlier that month had been hit by a devastating earthquake.[84] A group of fans edited together digital video taken by attendees to make a multi-camera document of the concert, which they made available through YouTube and torrents in December 2010, with the band's support and a "pay what you want" link to donate to Oxfam.[85] In 2010, another collective of fans made a not-for-profit video of Radiohead's 2009 Prague concert and distributed it freely online, with soundboard audio provided by the band.[86][87] Organizers of the Prague project said that, within five months of releasing the multi-format show online, it had been downloaded almost 100,000 times.[88] Live in Praha and Radiohead for Haiti were reviewed by mainstream media and were described as examples of the band's openness to fans and their positivity toward non-commercial forms of Internet distribution.[89][90]
Radiohead's eighth album, The King of Limbs, was digitally released in February 2011 through the band's web site.[91] The announcement of the album on Valentine's Day was followed by the Internet release four days later, along with a music video for the song "Lotus Flower". The King of Limbs was released in CD, vinyl and standard download formats in March, and in a "newspaper album", which included art, writings, and a CD as well as vinyl edition of the record, in May.[92] In March, to coincide with the retail release of the album, the band also issued "The Universal Sigh", a different edition of the custom newspaper, featuring poetry, stories, essays, lyrics, and art, for which the band employed people to distribute it free in the centre of select cities throughout the world. After being sold exclusively through the band's website for nearly two months, The King of Limbs charted at number seven in the United Kingdom on its retail release in late March 2011, becoming the band's first album since The Bends not to debut at number one in the UK. In the United States it reached number three, on par with the band's last major label release, 2003's Hail to the Thief. In July 2011 The King of Limbs vinyl edition was reported to be the best-selling vinyl of the year by a large margin, and Radiohead were credited with helping an ongoing surge in vinyl sales.
Like Kid A, no singles were released from The King of Limbs; However, "Lotus Flower" charted in a number of countries due to digital sales or radio airplay, and manipulations of its music video, featuring Thom Yorke dancing to different songs, became a popular internet meme.[93] On 16 April 2011, Radiohead released a single on vinyl, "Supercollider / The Butcher", for Record Store Day.[94] The band revealed that they worked on both songs during sessions for The King of Limbs, but decided they didn't fit on it. "Supercollider," at over seven minutes, is the longest studio-recorded song ever released by Radiohead in any form. Digital files of the songs were made available at no cost to anyone who had already purchased the album on the band's website, and the band uploaded audio of the songs to their YouTube channel. Radiohead also released a series of remixes from The King of Limbs on various 12″ vinyls, with a CD collecting the remixes to be released in the Autumn. Remixers announced so far include Caribou, Jacques Greene, Lone and Four Tet.[95] The band also uploaded each remix as it was released to their YouTube channel and their website for free streaming. The King of Limbs and TKOL RMX 1234567 were released on the band's own imprint label, Ticker Tape Ltd., owned by the band's label XL Recordings.[96]
On 21 June 2011, a video of the band performing a new song, "Staircase", was uploaded by the band to YouTube.[97] On 24 June 2011, Radiohead played as a "secret" act at the Glastonbury Festival, where they introduced another new song previously performed by Yorke, "The Daily Mail".[98] The band made their first public performance of many songs from The King of Limbs at Glastonbury, for which they were joined by a guest member, Portishead touring drummer Clive Deamer. In July 2011, a number of television channels around the world debuted a taped live performance of the From the Basement series, featuring Radiohead and Deamer performing every song from The King of Limbs, as well as "The Daily Mail" and the previously released live performance of "Staircase".
Radiohead are planning to tour in 2012. The band have not finalized dates, but they are expected to play between February and November in Europe and North America, and they may work on new recordings before touring.[99][100] Radiohead performed with Deamer in late September 2011, when they played two dates at New York City's famed Roseland Ballroom. Radiohead were described as having reinvented their King of Limbs studio recordings live, emphasising rhythm.[101] They also made TV appearances, including a one-hour special episode of The Colbert Report. In a widely reported hoax, a message falsely attributed to the band's manager was sent to organizers of Occupy Wall Street, spreading rumours Radiohead would make an appearance, swelling crowds in the area and helping lend the protests more mainstream media attention in their second week.[102] Band members did not play, but said they supported the protesters.[103][104]
On 7 November 2011 Radiohead announced a ten date tour of the United States from February to March 2012.[105] It will be their first U.S. tour in four years. Pre-sale's for all dates began at 7:00 AM EST on 9 November 2011, and every date's pre-sale allocation sold out within about an hour and a half. Radiohead commented on the tour stating that these dates are the "first part" of touring plans for 2012 and that there will be "more to follow".[105]
In February 2012, Radiohead confirmed their return to Australasia with the announcement of tour dates in Australia and New Zealand in November 2012. The band last visited Australia in 2004, and New Zealand in 1998. During their previous tour of Australia, the band were only able to play three of the scheduled dates when Thom contracted a throat infection, forcing them to cancel their Melbourne performance.
Two new songs, "Identikit" and "Cut a Hole", debuted live on 27 February at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, FL. A third new song, "Skirting on the Surface," was performed for the first time with the complete band on 5 March in Dallas.
On 6 March 2012, Radiohead announced three UK tour dates for October 2012. They will play one date at the Manchester Arena and two dates at London's O2 Arena.
Style and songwriting
"Pyramid Song" was strongly influenced by jazz musician Charles Mingus' 1963 piece "Freedom".[12] This sample shows the Radiohead track's string arrangement and irregular timing on the piano and drums.
Among Radiohead members' earliest influences were Queen and Elvis Costello; post-punk acts such as Joy Division and Magazine; and significantly 1980s alternative rock bands such as R.E.M., Pixies, The Smiths and Sonic Youth.[9][11][24] By the mid-1990s, Radiohead began to adopt some recording methods from hip hop, inspired by the sampling work of DJ Shadow.[9] They also became interested in using computers to generate sounds.[106] Other influences on the group were Miles Davis and Ennio Morricone, along with 1960s rock groups, such as The Beatles and The Beach Boys, and Phil Spector's "wall of sound" productions for girl groups.[9][28] Jonny Greenwood also cited composer Krzysztof Penderecki as an inspiration on the sound of OK Computer.[28] The electronic music of Kid A and Amnesiac was inspired by Thom Yorke's admiration for glitch, ambient techno and IDM as exemplified by Warp Records artists such as Autechre and Aphex Twin, and the album also sampled from early computer music.[15] The jazz of Charles Mingus, Alice Coltrane, and Miles Davis, and 1970s Krautrock bands such as Can and Neu!, were other major influences during this period.[107] Jonny Greenwood's interest in 20th century classical music also had a role, as the influence of both Penderecki and composer Olivier Messiaen was apparent; for several songs on Kid A and later albums, Greenwood has played the ondes Martenot, an early electronic instrument popularised by Messiaen.[11] While working on Hail to the Thief, Radiohead put renewed emphasis on guitar rock.[48] The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and particularly Neil Young were reported sources of inspiration to the band during this period.[108][109] Since beginning to record In Rainbows, Radiohead members have mentioned a variety of rock, electronic, hip hop and experimental musicians as influences, including Björk, M.I.A, Liars, Modeselektor and Spank Rock.[110][111] Since leaving their major label, the band members have been interviewed less frequently, more often posting "office charts" of their favorite songs of the moment on their blog Dead Air Space. In 2011, Thom Yorke denied Radiohead had ever set out deliberately to change musical styles or to make "experimental music", saying band members are "constantly absorbing music" and a variety of musicians are always influencing their work.[112]
Since their formation Radiohead have, lyrically and musically, been spearheaded by Yorke. However, although Yorke is responsible for writing nearly all the lyrics, songwriting is a collaborative effort, and it has been noted in interviews that all the band members have roles in the process.[41] As a result, all the band's songs are officially credited to "Radiohead". The Kid A/Amnesiac sessions brought about a change in Radiohead's musical style, and an even more radical change in the band's working method.[41][113] Since the band's shift from standard rock music instrumentation toward an emphasis on electronic sound, band members have had greater flexibility and now regularly switch instruments depending on the particular song requirements.[41] On Kid A and Amnesiac, Yorke played keyboard and bass, while Jonny Greenwood often played ondes Martenot rather than guitar, bassist Colin Greenwood worked on sampling, and O'Brien and Selway branched out to drum machines and digital manipulations, also finding ways to incorporate their primary instruments, guitar and percussion, respectively, into the new sound.[41] The relaxed 2003 recording sessions for Hail to the Thief led to a different dynamic in Radiohead, with Yorke admitting in interviews that "[his] power within the band was absolutely unbalanced and [he] would subvert everybody else's power at all costs. But … it's actually a lot more healthy now, democracy wise, than it used to be."[114]
"Modified bear" logo for Kid A by Stanley Donwood and Tchock (Thom Yorke)
The band maintains a close relationship with their producer Nigel Godrich, as well as with graphic artist Stanley Donwood. Godrich made his name with Radiohead, working with the band since The Bends, and as producer since OK Computer.[115] He has, at times, been dubbed the "sixth member" of the band in an allusion to George Martin being called the "Fifth Beatle".[115] Donwood, another longtime associate of the band, has produced all of Radiohead's album covers and visual artwork since 1994.[116] Together with Yorke, Donwood won a Grammy in 2002 for a special edition of Amnesiac packaged as a library book.[116] Other collaborators include Dilly Gent, and Peter Clements. Gent has been responsible for commissioning all Radiohead music videos since OK Computer, working with the band to find a director suitable for each project.[117] The band's live technician, Peter Clements, or "Plank", has worked with the band since before The Bends, setting up their instruments for both studio recordings and live performances.[9]

ISS is one of the world's largest facility services providers, supplying organisations of all types, shapes and sizes with every facility solution they might require. ISS employs over 535,000 people worldwide. In the UK alone, its teams comprise over 45,000 staff.
ISS was relatively unknown in the trade, vertical and national press despite its size and coverage. It was important that the company raise the profile of its operation, focusing on the size, breadth and depth of its activities in the UK, in order to strengthen its brand image and make it more attractive to potential clients. They also had a desire for an exit and wanted to raise credibility with potential investors.
After an extensive search and selection process, Zoodikers was chosen to deliver strategic PR and an effective social media strategy, communicating and engaging with media and key stakeholders to strengthen ISS' brand position.
Working together with the ISS comms and marketing team, 'The Big FM Conversation' event was developed. This was an event aimed at raising awareness of the UK's youth unemployment epidemic and encouraging industry peers to pledge apprenticeship and work inspiration placements within the FM sector. Attended by CEOs, Trade Associations and Lord Aberdare, the success of this event provided excellent collaterals for use when lobbying the press, developing news stories and on social media.
Zoodikers also engaged in tenacious press lobbying, selling in topical issues and key messages. This resulted in winning opportunities to provide editorial and securing news release coverage.
National coverage in the Financial Times and high profile publications such as Director Magazine. Regular coverage in trade and vertical press.
Press now proactively seek comment from Richard Sykes and thought leaders within ISS.
Following The Big FM Conversation, ISS and industry peers pledged 10,020 Apprenticeships and 11,192 Work Inspiration placements by 2015.
Richard's video blogs received a combined total of 3,994 page views.

Q: What does it mean by declaring public class A: B This maybe a stupid question, but what does it mean by declaring this:
public class A: B{

}

I understand inheritance, I am just getting use to the C# syntax

A: You should look at this article.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173149.aspx
It means 2 things;

*

*You're inheriting from a class

*You're implementing an interface
Look at this code and you will understand.
// WorkItem implicitly inherits from the Object class.
public class WorkItem
{
    // Static field currentID stores the job ID of the last WorkItem that
    // has been created.
    private static int currentID;

    //Properties.
    protected int ID { get; set; }
    protected string Title { get; set; }
    protected string Description { get; set; }
    protected TimeSpan jobLength { get; set; }

    // Default constructor. If a derived class does not invoke a base-
    // class constructor explicitly, the default constructor is called
    // implicitly.
    public WorkItem()
    {
        ID = 0;
        Title = "Default title";
        Description = "Default description.";
        jobLength = new TimeSpan();
    }

    // Instance constructor that has three parameters.
    public WorkItem(string title, string desc, TimeSpan joblen)
    {
        this.ID = GetNextID();
        this.Title = title;
        this.Description = desc;
        this.jobLength = joblen;
    }

    // Static constructor to initialize the static member, currentID. This
    // constructor is called one time, automatically, before any instance
    // of WorkItem or ChangeRequest is created, or currentID is referenced.
    static WorkItem()
    {
        currentID = 0;
    }

    protected int GetNextID()
    {
        // currentID is a static field. It is incremented each time a new
        // instance of WorkItem is created.
        return ++currentID;
    }

    // Method Update enables you to update the title and job length of an
    // existing WorkItem object.
    public void Update(string title, TimeSpan joblen)
    {
        this.Title = title;
        this.jobLength = joblen;
    }

    // Virtual method override of the ToString method that is inherited
    // from System.Object.
    public override string ToString()
    {
        return String.Format("{0} - {1}", this.ID, this.Title);
    }
}

// ChangeRequest derives from WorkItem and adds a property (originalItemID)
// and two constructors.
public class ChangeRequest : WorkItem
{
    protected int originalItemID { get; set; }

    // Constructors. Because neither constructor calls a base-class
    // constructor explicitly, the default constructor in the base class
    // is called implicitly. The base class must contain a default
    // constructor.

    // Default constructor for the derived class.
    public ChangeRequest() { }

    // Instance constructor that has four parameters.
    public ChangeRequest(string title, string desc, TimeSpan jobLen,
                         int originalID)
    {
        // The following properties and the GetNexID method are inherited
        // from WorkItem.
        this.ID = GetNextID();
        this.Title = title;
        this.Description = desc;
        this.jobLength = jobLen;

        // Property originalItemId is a member of ChangeRequest, but not
        // of WorkItem.
        this.originalItemID = originalID;
    }
}

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Create an instance of WorkItem by using the constructor in the
        // base class that takes three arguments.
        WorkItem item = new WorkItem("Fix Bugs",
                                     "Fix all bugs in my code branch",
                                     new TimeSpan(3, 4, 0, 0));

        // Create an instance of ChangeRequest by using the constructor in
        // the derived class that takes four arguments.
        ChangeRequest change = new ChangeRequest("Change Base Class Design",
                                                 "Add members to the class",
                                                 new TimeSpan(4, 0, 0),
                                                 1);

        // Use the ToString method defined in WorkItem.
        Console.WriteLine(item.ToString());

        // Use the inherited Update method to change the title of the
        // ChangeRequest object.
        change.Update("Change the Design of the Base Class",
            new TimeSpan(4, 0, 0));

        // ChangeRequest inherits WorkItem's override of ToString.
        Console.WriteLine(change.ToString());

        // Keep the console open in debug mode.
        Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit.");
        Console.ReadKey();
    }
}
/* Output:
    1 - Fix Bugs
    2 - Change the Design of the Base Class
*/

A: It means that class A inherits from class B. There are lots of material on the web about inheritance.

A: It indicates that the class either inherits from class B, or implements interface B.

A: This can mean two things:

*

*You're inheriting from a class

*You're implementing an interface

This is a fundamental concept to Object Orientated programming so you shouldn't have any trouble locating information on the internet

Plp Chairman Defensive About Bobo And Toggie
Wisler 'Bobo' Davilma, left, pictured alongside Minister of National Security Dr Bernard Nottage on Tuesday night
As of Friday, April 7, 2017
PLP Chairman Bradley Roberts.
By KHRISNA VIRGIL
Deputy Chief Reporter
kvirgil@tribunemedia.net
PROGRESSIVE Liberal Party (PLP) Chairman Bradley Roberts was on the defensive yesterday when he was asked about his party's relationship with self-proclaimed "gang members" Wisler "Bobo" Davilma and Livingston "Toggie" Bullard.
The men, who are at the heart of an alleged murder plot against billionaire Louis Bacon and lawyer Fred Smith, QC and were allegedly hired by Canadian fashion mogul Peter Nygard to engage in criminal activities, attended the PLP's joint constituency meeting at the T G Glover Primary School on Tuesday night.
Contacted yesterday, Mr Roberts suggested that he did not know the men were at the event and said despite Davilma being outfitted in a PLP shirt and pictured alongside National Security Minister Dr Bernard Nottage, it did not mean that he had ties to the governing party.
However he insisted that The Tribune contact Dr Nottage for further questions on this matter. Attempts to reach the Bain and Grants Town MP were not successful up to press time.
Mr Roberts said: "Were they (at the event)?" Asked if the men were affiliated with the PLP, he said: "I don't know. I don't know the fellas."
When his attention was drawn to a photograph on the front page of Thursday's Tribune of Mr Davilma and Dr Nottage, Mr Roberts said: "You could be dressed in (a PLP shirt) too and so could the Devil. They were out there and they passed them (shirts) around to people."
Meanwhile, Environment Minister Kenred Dorsett, as a guest on "The Real Deal" with host Ortland Bodie Jr,was asked about the men's attendance and suggested that they were apart of the PLP's "big tent".
He said: "The PLP is a big tent. We want everyone in there. But the bottom line is we are a big tent. We're here to represent the small man and the big man, the light skin man, the white man and black man. The PLP is a party for everybody."
This comes at a time when Mr Roberts has repeatedly attempted to implicate Free National Movement (FNM) Leader Dr Hubert Minnis as being connected to "Toggie" and "Bobo".
Earlier this year, Mr Roberts castigated Dr Minnis over his "silence" regarding FNM candidate for Marco City Michael Pintard, who resigned as chairman of the FNM and from the Senate over his involvement in the lawsuit against Mr Nygard on March 21, 2016. His resignation, he insisted, was not an admission of guilt.
On the same day that Mr Pintard stepped down from the posts, Dr Minnis admitted to The Tribune that he had met Bullard at his home.
Dr Minnis said Bullard, his constituent in Killarney whom he said he met three times, contacted him to pass on a warning to Mr Pintard that he was about to be allegedly "set up" by a high ranking member of government and others.
Dr Minnis was adamant that the two never discussed Mr Nygard, adding that he did not hear of the alleged murder-for-hire plot until The Tribune published claims in an affidavit filed on March 9, 2016 by directors of Save The Bays.
According to court documents, Davilma and Bullard have also claimed they have lucrative maintenance contracts with the Ministry of Works.

Bradley Roberts attempting to defend the indefensible,"You could be dressed in (a PLP shirt) too and so could the Devil." You're right Mr. Roberts,the Devil does wear a PLP shirt not Prada. As for Mr Dorsett's confirmation that,"The PLP is a party for everybody" we agree, y'all got plenty like Toggie and Bobo in that tent.

It ain't what you think it is! Come home and meet a fella in ya house with your wife and your robe and slippers on, so you go in the guest room and go to sleep because you really trust your wife right? ANd it ain't what you think it is! But on the other hand Toogie and BoBo are elegible to vote so they do have a right to attend political rallies of their choosing and to co-mingle with the PLP!
TalRussell 3 years, 9 months ago
Comrades! This and previous media reporting of both the two main political parties connections to a long list certain individuals you'd think they'd want avoid at all costs -should come as a surprise to Bahamalanders of both parties - but we all know few are shocked.
Accepting campaign donations by politicians from both the two parties - from what was then criminal numbers operators were well known at the time - but few really ever told their own party leaders - not to take their cash campaign donations.
But on the other hand Omar Archer will remain in jail because of his expose's..get it?, got it? good! But remember governments change.

True ............ and the courts has HARD evidence that Toogie & Bobo were plotting to commit murder ....... as compared to the "fake gun" charge against Archer ............ But we will see what happens with Archer on April 11th

Do German need Visa to Russia?
Yes, they do. Russian Visa for the FRG citizens can be obtained in a consulate or embassy of the RF after receiving an Invitation from Russia. A foreign citizen should also fill in a special application form and pay a consulate tax.
How to Get Russian Visa from Germany?
Where to apply for a Russian visa in Germany?
You can obtain a visa to Russia in any of the Consulates of the Russian Federation located in Germany. See the list of Russian Consulates in Germany, along with their phone numbers and location indicated on this page below.
Those German citizens who are planning to visit Russia for holidays and sightseeing should apply for a Tourist Visa. Invitation for a Tourist Visa may be issued by a tourist company, which is legally registered and has its reference number. This type of invitation to visit Russia for German can be made within 1 working day.
The outward appearance of such invitation may differ, but it must contain all information about the inviting tourist company including its reference number, as well as the passport data of the foreigner. In this invitation a tourist company should indicate an itinerary of a foreigner, cities which he/she intends to visit as well as his/her place of stay. Also the term of the visit and number of entries should be indicated in the invitation.
The validity of a Tourist Visa from Germany can be up to 30 days. Visas can be single or double entry.
Those citizens of Germany who are planning to visit their relatives or friends who live in Russia should apply for a Private visa. The inviting party must issue a visitor invitation and send it to a visitor.
Such an invitation should be issued in a local FMS body. A relative or an acquaintance who invites a foreigner to Russia should give in an application to a department of the FMS at the place of his/her residence. If the inviting party is a legal entity its representative should apply to a department of the FMS where such company was accredited.
Before issuing such private invitation a foreigner will be checked on whether he/she had any unpaid penalties, criminal convictions or deportations during his/her previous visits. If any such convictions found, the inviting party will be denied in receiving an invitation (and the reason for withholding it will be specified).
The term of a private Russian visa for citizens of Germany can be up to 90 days. Such visa can be single or double entry.
The foreigners who are planning to visit Russia to participate in seminars or auctions, to sign or prolong agreements, to hold negotiations or look for new business partners should apply for a Business Visa.
In order to receive a Business Visa you have to give in to a consulate an Invitation which should be issued by a legal entity accredited by the Department of Consulate Service at the Ministry for Foreign Relations of the Russian Federation or the Federal Migration Service.
Issuing an invitation letter is cheaper than arranging an invitation by Telex or at the FMS.
It can be issued online in 5 minutes and will be sent to you by email immediately after payment.
Also, it is not required to submit the original invitation to the Consulate, which saves you the money you will otherwise have to spend on postal services for sending the original invitation.
A 3-year visa invitation and visa can be obtained with this type of invitation if the applicant has previously held two or more Russian business visas.
The Invitation on the inviting company's letterhead – is a letter of request of an accredited company to a Russian consulate to give a Russian visa for a foreigner. Such Invitation is issued within 1 day.
Invitations on special FMS forms is being issued to the accredited company by an authorized body after receiving its application. It is being issued on a standard federal pro-forma. Such invitation is given after such a foreigner was checked on having any criminal convictions, penalties or deportations during his previous visits to Russia.
Invitation by Telex – is a direct requirement from the Ministry for Foreign Relation of the Russian Federation to a Russian consulate. In this case it is just enough for a foreigner when applying for a visa to quote a certain number given to him by the inviting party.
Read more: What is the difference between a Telex and the original Invitation?
Maximum term for a Business Visa for German citizens is 5 years.
In order to work legally in Russia a foreigner needs a work visa. An invitation for a work visa can be issued only if a foreign citizen has received a work permit allowing him to work in the Russian Federation, a special card of an employee of a foreign representative office or any other appropriate documents.

My character 'The Cannibal' is a wandering Villain. He is a Serial Killer whom derives his extra-natural powers from the consumption of human flesh. He has been practicing this ritual for hundreds of years, popping up in different parts of the world, since he is a vagrant and travels extensively I would be able to participate in several different threads at once; time is liquid here.
Here is the link to the current story I've started to help you get a feel for my character; Remember though since he can travel , he could come to your city as well!
http://superhero-rpg.forumotion.com/t2803-hunter-s-moon
I would like to see several story arcs take place over the course of the career with this character archetype, they are as follows but not necessarily in any order:
1) A taste for super hero: If any of you have a Hero or Vigilante or even a Villain that you've lost interest in or simply want to try another style of character; I would like the opportunity to eat your unwanted character. This plot device will allow you to get rid of a relegated hero you're stuck with; essentially freeing up a spot for a new creation in your character library, and it will allow me to develop my character's taste for Metahumans. Pm if you are interested and we'll discuss a story arc.
2) Eat a Hero's family member: I would like to develop an archnemesis, and I can think of no better way than to eat one of your loved ones. This will give your character motive to pursue me at all costs and would be a fun exercise in character development for any Hero or Vigilante. Think about the great tragedy and the narration you could produce there after. Please keep in mind that I want this to be a long game of cat and mouse. You might catch me, but I've been doing this a loooong time, so I am a master of escape and it will take all your resources to finally rein me in but that's part of the fun!
3) Pissing contest: If there are any other serial killer villains out there that are looking for a little friendly competition in our field, I would like to offer a Competitive plot device. We would meet during some horrible act of violence and develop a 'Frenemy' relationship, constantly trying to out-do each other in acts of depravity, all to the hero's chagrin!
4) Do time: Yes, unless you kill me, I would like to be eventually apprehended and go to prison. Not to be forgotten....instead to RP as a prisoner. I don't know who Runs GUNN Prison but I would like to RP in that environment. Get locked up.....Prison shankings.....Lock downs....curupt Guards to be manipulated.....and finally making an escape attempt.
If any of these things sound interesting to any of you, Please let me know. I am an avid writer and love to produce great, exciting fiction with others.

Moved to proper section of the forum.
by Coffinhunter June 30th 2011, 1:47 pm
thanks Nightkill.
Or if you don't want to be completely consumed....how about just an arm? You could always attach some cybernetic prosthetic or nifty gadget to the nub once you escaped....there are plenty of options!

"The Cannibal waited and then pounced, landing squarely on the idiot's back and latching in tight."
This is an auto hit
"Better yet now that he was on the helpless heroes back it's companion had stopped shooting, to concerned with hitting it's friend or the dead girl he carried"
This is controlling someone else's actions.
Quote : "Totally saved Sadie."
See the above post as well.
Warren smiled right before the man bit into his neck warren flipped slamming the cannibal on his back then as the beasts grip broke he slipped out and sat the girl down.
autohit
one of his far stronger arms reached across and held Warren's arms down against the Cannibal's own chest.
Auto-hit.
It trapped the idiot were he was and made for an excellent shield against the raining gun fire from above.
Auto Hit.

Hertz Awards 2012 Go to "Gifted Young Leaders" in Science, Engineering
Posted on May 16, 2012 by Honorsadmin
The Hertz Awards are surely among the most prestigious academic awards that a student can earn: only 15 are awarded each year, chosen from 600 highly-qualified applicants, and the awards have a five-year monetary value of $250,000.
The Hertz Foundation says that its fellowships for "gifted young leaders" are "considered to be the nation's most generous support for graduate education in the applied physical, biological, and engineering sciences," and you can, so to speak, take that to the bank.
Fellows have the freedom to innovate in their doctoral studies without university or research restrictions. "The Hertz Foundation nurtures these remarkable scientists and engineers as they develop and explore their genius," said Foundation President Dr. Jay Davis. "We help genius find itself."
The Livermore, California Foundation says that for "nearly a half century, the Hertz Foundation has fostered the scientific and engineering strength of the nation by finding the best and brightest from those disciplines. During the past decade, there has been a major shift of the candidates towards those who apply physical and computational tools to the problems of biomedicine and health."
The Foundation noted that at least 30 students were worthy of the awards, but funding required keeping the total actually awarded to 15. The Foundation plans to extend its fund-raising efforts to provide additional support.
Included in this 50th cadre of Hertz Fellows (2012) are six students from public universities, including four from the universities whose honors programs we follow. Three of these are present or former students in honors programs: Anjali Datta, University of Texas Plan II-Engineering Program; Grant Newton Remmen, University of Minnesota Honors Program; and Yun William Yu, General and Departmental Honors, Indiana University. Kelly Dare Moynihan is a Distinguished College Scholar in Engineering at the University of Texas.
The cadre for 2011 included students from Georgia Tech, the University of Kansas, and the University of Wisconsin.
Here is the complete list of 2012 winners:
Cheri Marie Ackerman, Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley
Nicholas Ranieri Boyd, Computer Science University of California, Berkeley
Allen Yuyin Chen, Bioengineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Anjali Datta, Electrical Engineering, University of Texas, Austin
Arvind Kannan, Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology
Brian Lawrence, Mathematics ,California Institute of Technology
Max Nathan Mankin, Chemistry, Harvard University
Kelly Dare Moynihan, Biomedical Engineering, University of Texas
Austin Vyas Ramanan, Bioengineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Grant Newton Remmen, Physics/Astrophysics, University of Minnesota
Jonathan Robert Russell, Biotechnology, Harvard University
Jacob Noah Steinhardt Computer Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
James Ryan Valcourt, Quantitative Biology/Bio-Engineering, Princeton University
Christian T. Wentz, Bioengineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Yun William Yu Applied Mathematics Indiana University, Bloomington

Weekend Breaks – Why Are They So Popular?
Lately, the idea of escaping one's routine and finding refuge with one's partner (or friends) at a resort, hotel or rented flat for a weekend break, has become more and more popular.
This is nothing new. I remember when I was a little girl, the whole family would take a week or two off and escape to Gozo, for a relaxing time at the beach with picnics in the countryside, BBQs and time spent together. So, why has this become such a 'hip' and 'in' thing to do nowadays? As though one is doing something special by going off for a weekend with one's partner, with hotels offering special weekends, reduced prices and much advertised couple's retreats.
Maybe it's because in this day and age, it is so much harder to take time off and leave everyday troubles and issues behind. Sad but true. So, why not go abroad for an extended holiday and opt for just a weekend break in another part of Malta, or in Gozo, instead?
For most people, taking a week or more off from work, as well as from everyday matters, is no joke. Therefore, enjoying the weekend, maybe making it more special than others, is the only possible option. Others look at budget, when one-time offers or weekend deals make it so much more affordable to enjoy some quiet time relaxing by the pool whilst also delighting in some special time with a loved one, with no intrusions.
Most of the time, during the week we promise ourselves that we will find some time for ourselves, or to enjoy the company of a partner or members of the family, during our weekends. We tempt fate and try to set a day and time when we will be sure to be free to go for a romantic candlelit dinner or draw a hot, relaxing bath and enjoy it with a glass of red wine and a good book, only to have real life intrude on us again and again and spoil everything. Maybe the plumber has had to reschedule his visit, the fridge needs defrosting, the kids want a lift or you look around your bedroom and realise that it needs a good clean – and why not do it in the weekend while you have the chance? And so, the treat you had promised yourself goes up in smoke, there goes your quality time with your partner or that one hour of me-time you had so keenly looked forward to! Until the weekend becomes nothing more than an extension of the working week – a time where you do chores, go to the supermarket and try to settle all those little errands and housework, which you did not have time to handle on previous days.
Weekend breaks are short islands of hope in a sea of industrious commitments and persistent duties.
Many couples, nowadays, have such busy lives, most of the time independently of each other, that they seldom actually have the time to enjoy each other as a couple anymore. This is mostly true when they also have children. This is why it is a good idea sometimes to just stop, take a deep breath, and try to find some time for each other. It is time to remember who the person sleeping next to you is and why you have decided to share your life with this person. It is time to remember what is so special about them, in order never to take them for granted.
When one goes abroad, the focus is mostly on sightseeing or enjoying the beautiful country or the special events one has actually paid money to see, and maybe not so much on the other people one is travelling with. Taking a weekend break specifically to have the time to spend a day or two with that special person or persons, shows that one really cares.
One must never forget the priorities in life, which are not money or career only, but most important of all, our loved ones and families. Staying at home to try and take a 'weekend break' from it all, is too hard most of the time, as other issues still continue to intrude, and this is why most people find it easier to just climb into their car with a few important belongings and drive away into the sunset for some quality time together, instead. No matter how one does it, making loved ones feel that they have a special place in your life and that you enjoy spending time in their company, is the easiest way to keep the relationship and emotions alive.
