The Bruins released an update on Jonas Gustavsson Wednesday night, revealing that the goaltender'€™s departure from Tuesday'€™s game and trip to the hospital was indeed heart-related. "Jonas Gustavsson was removed from Tuesday'€™s game for precautionary reasons due to an elevated heart rate," Wednesday'€™s statement read. "He was taken to Mass General Hospital and remained there overnight for testing. All preliminary tests came back negative and he was discharged Wednesday afternoon. Jonas is expected to rejoin the team after the NHL All-Star Break pending clearance from the Bruins medical staff." This is not the first time Gustavsson has dealt with heart issues in his career, as he has had three different heart procedures since coming to the NHL from Sweden in 2009. The 31-year-old goaltender allowed two goals on 16 shots against the Ducks Tuesday before leaving the game. On the season, he is 9-3-1 with a .915 save percentage and 2.38 goals-against average.

Brit Award noms
THE BRITISH VERSION OF EVENTS: Emeli Sande, whose debut, Our Version of Events, was the best-selling album in the U.K. last year with 1.4 million units, leads the field for the Brit Awards with four nominations. The EMI artist is up for Best Female and Best Album, and she's competing against herself for Best Single, with "Next to Me" and "Beneath Your Beautiful" both getting nods. Mumford & Sons, Rita Ora (who also has a pair of nominated singles) and Mercury Prize winners Alt-J were next with three noms apiece, followed by two-timers Muse, Coldplay, Paloma Faith, Plan B, Olly Murs, Jessie Ware, Ben Howard and Rihanna. In the Best Album category, Sande is up against Plan B, Alt-J, Paloma Faith and Mumford & Sons, while Best British Group nominees are Alt-J, Mumford, Muse, One Direction and The xx. Amy Winehouse received a nom for Best British Female as a result of the 2012 release of rarities album Lioness: Hidden Treasures; also nominated in the category are Paloma Faith, Bat for Lashes and Jessie Ware. Competing for Best British Male are Calvin Harris, Richard Hawley, Ben Howard, Olly Murs and Plan B. Adele, who scored a clean sweep at last year's Brits, got a Best Single nod for "Skyfall" on the same day the song received an Oscar nom. And the Rolling Stones are in the mix for Best Live Act, prompting speculation that they'll perform at the Feb. 20 event, which will be held at the O2 Arena, site of their recent run of shows. Confirmed as performers are Muse, Sande, Mumford, Robbie Williams, Ben Howard and 1D. "It shows the broad spread of British pop music," said Alt-J's Gus Unger-Hamilton of the diverse field in BBC News. "That's what's great about the Brits." (1/11a)

Phil Robertson of the A&E reality series "Duck Dynasty'' has ideas on dealing with ISIS. (Photo: File photo )
You knew Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson, who says he never goes anywhere without his Bible or his "woman" (wife "Miss Kay"), would bring a fresh perspective to the terrible ISIS situation.
Robertson talked to Sean Hannity on Tuesday about the beheading of two journalists by the Islamic group and offered his solutions for how to handle it.
"Why is it when we're not even over there in the Middle East, why do they continue to slaughter each other?" asked Robertson.
He went on Fox News show Hannity to talk about his new book, UnPHILtered, but addressed the news first. After citing some Bible passages, he told Hannity his view of the situation.
"In this case you have to convert them, which I think would be next to impossible, I'm not giving up on them, I'm just saying convert them or kill them. One or the other."
Robertson said ISIS is like "street gangs, street thugs on steroids."
He added that it's not like battling a "standing country with an army. This is more like worldwide gang warfare. My opinion is we're going to have to deal with this group way more harshly than we have up to this point."
But the reality star's first choice for handling ISIS would be Jesus.
"I'd much rather have a Bible study with all of them and show them the error of their ways and point them to Jesus Christ," Robertson said.
"However, if it's a gunfight and a gunfight alone, if that's what they're looking for, me personally, I am prepared for either one."

Franklin Municipal Court Judge Hector Rodriguez cited for making inappropriate comment to woman
Courier News and Home News Tribune
FRANKLIN (Somerset) - The chief judge of the Franklin Township Municipal Court has been charged with "discourteous and undignified behavior" by making an inappropriate comment to a female defendant in court.
Hector Rodriguez, who was appointed judge in 2014, has been cited by the state Supreme Court's Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct with violating rules of judicial conduct.
According to the complaint, Rodriguez was presiding over a first court appearance for an unidentified woman who had been charged with multiple indictable offenses on Dec. 5, 2017.
After the woman pleaded not guilty, the complaint says, Rodriguez explained her rights and asked her if she had any questions. He then said that her bail was "ROR," meaning no bail was required for her release.
When the defendant seemed confused if she would have to post bail, she asked Rodriguez, "Do I owe you anything?"
"Not that you can do in front of all these people, no," Rodriquez replied, according to the complaint.
After leaving the courtroom, Somerset County Assistant Prosecutor Lauren Case and Anthony Cowell, the defendant's public defender, discussed Rodriguez's comment, agreed it was inappropriate and that it should be reported, the complaint says.
They spoke to Audra McEvoy, a team leader in the court's Pretrial Services Unit, who was present in the courtroom, and she agreed that the judge's comment was inappropriate and she would report it to her supervisor.
She then sent an email to Brian Rother, an assistant criminal division manager, about the comment and sent copies to Assignment Judge Yolanda Ciccone and William Kelleher Jr., the Presiding Municipal Court Judge in the county.
When questioned by the Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct, Rodriguez denied the remark could be interpreted as sexual innuendo, the complaint says.
"You can't take it out of context," the complaint quotes him. "You take a statement and flip it around, throw it up in the air, put spice on it and put it back into that — it's going to be the same when you — in the context of what I said. It was all about the monetary bail."
Rodriguez said the woman "seemed confused."
After she asked if she owed anything, "I was like not that you would give me in front of all these people referring to money, a monetary bail."
Rodriguez has 20 days to respond to the complaint. Once the complaint is received, the Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct will schedule a formal hearing.

Q: Ensuring parameter types when implementing interface and inheriting I have a problem with Classes and Interfaces.
I want to achive that an Interface declaretes a method that takes the type of the implemented class.
When I inherit from this class the method should only take the type of the inherited class.
Is this possible?
A short code snipped:
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Node node1 = new Node();
        Node node2 = new Node();
        Node node3 = new Node();

        // Connect node2 to node1 and node3 to node1.
        node1.connect(node2)
             .connect(node3);

        SomeNode node4 = new SomeNode();
        SomeNode node5 = new SomeNode();

        node4.connect(node5);

        // node1.connect(node4); // This should not be possible because node1.connect() should only accept Node and not SomeNode.
    }
}

interface INode
{
    int Id { get; set; }

    // Instead of INode, here should be the type of the implementing class or the type of the subclass (or the sub-subclass ...).
    INode connect(INode node);
}

class Node : INode
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    // This list MUST be protected and MUST be able to contain only objects of the current class type.
    protected List<Node> connectedNodes;

    // This should implement the interface mehtod but in subclasses, the type should not be Node but the type of the subclass.
    // Of cause, this method should not be reimplemented in subclasses.
    public Node connect(Node node)
    {
        this.connectedNodes.Add(node);

        return this; // Enable chaining.
    }
}

class SomeNode : Node
{
    // Here should be some additional functionality but NOT the connect() method!
}

A: You can get basically what you describe by making INode generic on the node type and using a generic base class for your node's.  The generic node type will be used to allow a single implementation to use different types
interface INode<TNode> {
    int Id { get; set; }
    TNode connect(TNode node);
}

abstract class NodeBase<TNode> : INode<TNode> {
    public int Id { get; set; }
    protected List<TNode> connectedNodes;

    public TNode connect(TNode node) {
        this.connectedNodes.Add(node);
        return this; // Enable chaining.
    }
}

class Node : NodeBase<Node> { }

class SomeNode : NodeBase<SomeNode> { }

This does however create a different inheritance structure than you have in your question.  SomeNode no longer derives from Node so Node n = new SomeNode() is no longer value.  They also no longer share a single interface.  Node implements INode<Node> and SomeNode implements INode<SomeNode> which are different interfaces.

In an important but easily-overlooked decision, the Court of Appeal for the First District upheld an award of discovery sanctions based on objections to the practice of propounding interrogatories about a party's responses to previous interrogatories.
In Clement v. Alegre (2009) 177 Cal.App.4th 1277, the court addressed the lengths to which some counsel and parties will go to avoid providing discovery responses to straightforward interrogatories "with nitpicking and meritless objections," which resulted in delayed proceedings, impeding the self-executing operation of the Civil Discovery Act, wasting the time of the court and a discovery referee, as well as the opposing party and his counsel.
Plaintiff sued defendant for specific performance and unspecified damages in connection with a dispute arising out of the sale of real property by plaintiff to defendant. Defendant served a set of 23 special interrogatories to plaintiff. The interrogatories requested information on damages, causation, and the existence of a loan commitment. Plaintiff answered three of the interrogatories, but then interposed objections as to the remaining 20. Plaintiff objected that the questions were "vague and ambiguous" because propounding party's use of the term "economic damages" did not specifically refer to Civil Code section 1431.2, which defines economic damages. The parties then engaged in the series of "meet & confer" letters. Defendant's counsel pointed out that plaintiff himself had quoted Civil Code section 1431.2 and characterized it as the "generally accepted definition" of economic damages, and clarified that this was the information sought in the interrogatories. Plaintiff also interposed objections that the interrogatories were not "full and complete" pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 2030.060(d) because they asked for a quantification of the amount of damages that had been requested in earlier interrogatories. That is, plaintiff also objected to defendant's interrogatories on the grounds that they referenced prior interrogatories.
The matter was heard by a discovery referee nine months after the interrogatories had been propounded. The referee determined that plaintiff had deliberately misconstrued and objected to the phrase "economic damages" solely in order to provide evasive responses. As to plaintiff's claim that the interrogatories referenced prior interrogatories and were not "full and complete in and of itself," the referee found that the case cited by plaintiff was inapposite, so the objection was frivolous. The referee determined that plaintiff's objections were unreasonable, evasive, lacking in legal merit and without justification, and recommended that plaintiff be ordered to provide answers and pay approximately $6,600 in discovery sanctions. The Court adopted the referee's order.
In its decision, affirming the Trial Court, the reviewing Court held that it is a central precept of the Civil Discovery Act that discovery be essentially "self-executing," meaning that the system is designed to operate without judicial involvement. Conduct becomes sanctionable when it frustrates the goal of a self-executing discovery system, because it requires the trial court to become involved in a discovery dispute, based on objections that were without "substantial justification" to begin with. The Court of Appeal also found that plaintiff forced the Court to decide a dispute that was not "genuine." Instead, the purpose of plaintiff's objections was to delay discovery, require defendant to incur potentially significant costs in re-drafting interrogatories that were clear and did not exceed the numerical limits for special interrogatories, and to generally obstruct the self-executing discovery process. The dispute only arose when plaintiff seized upon an arguable deficiency in defendant's interrogatories based upon slim authority, which did not provide substantial justification for the objections asserted.
This decision is significant because it affirms that when a responding party deliberately misconstrues a written discovery request and then provides evasive responses and unjustified objections based on the misconstrued request, a misuse of the discovery process occurs which warrants the imposition of monetary sanctions.

"This Mouth" 10th anniversary remaster: if you just love clean acts, don't bother buying.
Posted: November 14, 2018 in In the studio, Interviews, Japan, Music, News, 別府
Tags: 2008, Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Lily Allen, lo-fi, Maroon 5, Nelly Furtado, Oasis, remaster, This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo), Timbaland
Music wasn't that bad in 2008. I mean commercial music. You could turn on the radio or TV and listen to some good things, Timbaland, Kanye West, Nelly Furtado, Lily Allen, Maroon 5, Justin Timberlake, that was fresh air compared to the boring 90's. Hey, even Oasis started to release something that sounded meaningful in 2008…
And "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" from yours truly. Gosh, it's been 10 years. So the high-powers decided to give it a remaster test. Pass? Fail? Let's dig deeper.
How does the remaster of "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" stand out, compared with the original version?
It's like listening with HQ loudspeakers after 10 years of earphones, to give you a metaphor. It's the same album, same sound, but different, enhanced. Like a gramophone with a new stylus.
Why did you choose to remaster "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" instead of any other of your records?
I found I still had the original masters, that were actually cruelly lacking mastering, also it's its 10th anniversary today, and despite its lo-fi sound, it's a fans' favourite, so why not cleaning it a little?
Did you remix the songs as well?
Not a slice. The multi tracks have been long deleted and there's no way to remix the songs, even if my life depended on it. Which is good, since I don't want to fuck up with history anyway.
Are there any bonus tracks from the "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" sessions? Any demo?
No. And no. There's the original bonus track that you get if you're a good girl (or good boy) and download the album instead of lazily streaming it. There's a demo or two somewhere, they might appear someday in a "Rare Grooves" collection album, or not, I don't know.
What makes "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" so special?
There are some powerful energies involved in its making, back in 2008, and you can feel them when you listen to it. It's a soulful record, it has its own kind of groove. Its dysfunctional for the better, should I say…
What gave it this lo-fi mood?
Some experimentations went bananas.
Is "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" a concept-album?
Yes and no, it has a unity for sure, and some underlying stories that connect the songs, so you can say there's a concept behind it.
Who should never buy "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)"?
It's surely not for everyone. It's quite libidinous, booze-infused, things could go berserk sometimes, so if you just love clean acts, don't bother buying. It's like an exclusive club, you need to pass a test, and if you love "This Mouth (Nhạc Cho Em Mèo)" you're in.

Lunear: the birth of a band (part 1)
Posted: August 13, 2018 in In the studio, Music, News
Tags: 2 Be 3, Bon Jovi, Citroën LNA, Jean-Philippe Benadjer, Lunear, Many Miles Away, Midrone, Modern Talking, Museo del Jamón, Paul J No, Qurtis, Sebastien Bournier, Sousbock
Sébastien Bournier, singing drummer and drumming singer
Sébastien Bournier, the singing drummer, had a dream. A strong, obsessive dream. He wanted to take group pictures. Stupid group pictures. With a pose. Like any decent 80's hair-metal band.
Years passed and someday, suddenly, he took the plunge, called his good friend J-P Benadjer, gave him a camera, and said: "Come on, JP, take group pictures of me".
JP took the pics, gave back the camera to Seb, who went to the photographer having the film developed.
J-P Benadjer, fractal photographer
When he came back home, he called JP, panicked: "JP, I think there's a little problem with the pics"
"Yeah?" said JP.
"I'm alone."
"Well, these are group pics".
"Ah, true. Never thought of that"
"Get a friend, bring him her and I'll take more pictures."
"JP, you're a genius."
Seb took his old but strong 1982 Citroën LNA and hit the road to Spain, where his old pal Paul J. No was making a living as a more or less official Jon Bon Jovi doppelganger. His hard earned pay check was however dilapidated in satisfying his deeper vice, drinking jamón soup till he dropped, every night, in his favourite Museo del Jamón restaurant.
Seb found Paul sniffing his 45th spoonful of jamón fat and boldly asked him if he wanted to join for group pictures. No said yes.
The two friends hit the road again, PJN having to deal with Seb's recurrent joke: "Why didn't you study medicine? You could have become Dr No!" Paul never knew if he had to laugh, sigh or simply keep quiet. He opted to laugh, which happened to be the wrong choice that just made Seb very confident in his storytelling, and remember the road is long. Many, many miles…
Paul J. No, affirmative serial jamónizer
Back to France, JP was asked once again to shoot what became a duet. "Lovely, lovely", he said after the 457th cliché taken, "you look like a modern version of Modern Talking. Doubly modern.".
"No", said Seb.
"You called me?" said No.
"No, No, I meant I don't want to look like Modern Talking".
"Me neither", said No.
"You need to be three", JP revealed.
"…or no to be!" laughed No, who revealed the source of his musical guilty pleasure.
"On s'est promis, oh oui, d'être toujours des amis ! ", gladly added JP.
"I don't want to be mistaken for the 2B3", cried Seb.
"Don't worry", said JP, "the risk is, let's say, quite low."
"So let's bring Snowcat on the group."
"No", said No.
"I don't want to take pictures of Snowcat", mumbled JP.
"And I don't want Snowcat on the pics!", added Seb.
"So why you asked?", wondered No and JP.
"Hey, we need someone here, no?", defended Seb.
"You called me, Seb?", asked No.
"Yes, you just did it again."
"Oops", britneyspeared Seb.
"What if JP became the 3rd member of our group?", suggested No.
"Yes but who will take the pictures then?", asked Seb.
"We can call Snowcat…", innocently offered JP.
"Or simply use the timer of my iPhone X and do the shooting that way", completed Seb.
A band was born. And then there were 3.
The pictures went viral. In no time, Seb, JP & No had become the new idols of South France, Spain and Catalognia del Jamón. Girls were sleeping in front of the house, money was flowing, life was good.
JP expressed his happiness: "We have a great band, wonderful pictures, faithful fans, free cocktails and a swimming pool. What else do we need?"
"An album, maybe?" replied No. "We haven't played a single note of music since we formed."
"Oh, that's a great idea", complimented Seb. "I'll be the drummer. And you both, what you want to be?"
JP admitted that bass would suit him well, and No chose the keyboards.
"We need a guitarist", reminded Seb.
"I know a band that became a trio and it's the bassist who played the guitar", said No.
"Well, he tried", thought a realistic JP.
(Some bass players should have remained bass players)
Once it had been decided that it's JP who would play the guitar, our newly formed band locked itself in a studio for four years, called themselves Lunear and offered the world their first album, a long-playing called "Many Miles Away".

"Don't go there!", they told me (Wild, dangerous & fun)

Tags: dangerous, fun, new album, wild
If you're familiar with Tarzan-style old movies, you most likely have heard the porters who said, paralysed by fear: "Don't go there, sir! There very very dangerous, sir!". But the 'sir' doesn't seem to give a damn about the wise advice from the men of the Jungle, and keeps on going straight ahead. Then they leave the trunks on the floor, shout a desperate "We don't go there sir", run away, yelling a last piece of wisdom sounding like "We warned you, sir. We warned you!".
Similarly, the taxi driver who doesn't want to lift his customer to the deep dark parts of Brooklyn at night is fitting the same category.
But it's only a movie, isn't it? Does it happen in reality?
Hell yeah it does. When Gilles Snowcat gathered his musicians to give them a hint about his forthcoming album he had in mind, the reaction was unanimous: "Don't go there, Snowcat!"
"Don't go there, Gilles, this is dangerous music! No one does that anymore. Those who tried never came back. And those who succeeded failed anyway. Why don't you play safe?".
Far from daunting the Mardi Gras-born feline, the naysaying demands from the network boosted him to not only try, but succeed into making the wild, dangerous and fun territories his.
That's why, since 18th of April, 2018, Snowcat is exploring, creating, experimenting and pushing his own boundaries to the point of no-return. And it's quite exciting. Wild, dangerous, fun and exciting.
And guess what? The naughty musicians who were so reluctant to take the trip, where are they now? With Gilles, on the very same boat. Excited like kids in a toys store.
Yes there are sharks, traps, toxic stuff and tempting sirens carrying bottles of forbidden liquors, but so what? Isn't it what makes rock'n'roll the upper it should always be?
Will we keep you updated on the making-of the album? Will we send you lots of pictures? Probably not. What happens backstage remains backstage. When time will come for you to discover the new collection of Snowcat's tunes, you'll know it without even realise. And you'll feel in a wild, dangerous and fun mood.
The Night Cats.
Born on Mardi Gras day (and new music too)

When I visit a fellow musician's studio, I'm sometimes surprised and scared by the strict, almost military tidiness where any trace of life seems to have been removed.
My musical environment is full of heteroclite objects that have, at first thought, no close relation to music at all. Well, I assume they have, like it or not.
One may ask (and some daring visitors do) why the hell I need a モヤっとボール on my keyboard, if an old chopstick on my sheet-music stand has really the power to make me play at a higher level and if my old Hello Kitty pick truly makes me a better guitarist. And the answer is invariably yes. Yes, a chopstick, a Kitty pick and a モヤっとボール, if they don't necessary replace hours of practice in terms of virtuosity (something that's stranger to me anyway), surely have the power to shake the magma of my inspiration and lead me to produce something more exciting, dangerous and slightly more outrageous than if I had been forced to create in a clean, white and neat room.
Those rock-star's little helpers also include the fluffy chair, the warm strong black coffee or the 70° shot of absinth, the old outdated heavy wooden synthesizer bought during my high-school days, the bass guitar strings coming directly from Ôita-city or the painting of Breughel (well, it's a copy) facing me every time I sit.
Some rude pals come and say "Hey Snowcat, you collect so much stuff. Why don't you collect experiences instead? Uh?"
Because the stuff that I collect is an experience in itself. Amen.
I love stuff that is soaked in history, memories and obscure meanings. Practical people see it as stuff, things that waste useful space, while I see and feel it as a connection with something bigger. And I love it.
Actually, I was born on Mardi Gras day. Yes, I guess it's (a part of) the explanation.
Objects quickly pass from the status of mere stuff to the more responsible one of gris-gris, or lucky charm. Which explains why I need them around. They connect me. They bring me luck and inspiration, since they came from strong experiences. Gris-gris, not stuff.
I was born on Mardi Gras day, and that very moment influenced dramatically whatever happened since that day. And mostly for the best.
I can't explain better than in music. I asked my gris-gris to take me somewhere once again, and two songs came straight out of it.
May you live the experience as strongly as I did. Listen to the single in streaming and if you want to own it, buy it through CD Baby or Bandcamp (more expensive but the complete artwork is offered as present). And in a matter of days it will spread its evil spells on Amazon, Spotify, iTunes, Deezer and other music online supermarkets. Welcome to Mardi Gras Station!
ps: the single features hallucinated contributions of Sébastien Bournier from Sousbock and Renato Ronchetti from Cinnamon Lilly.

Made in Japan, 10 years ago (別府NIGHTS, behind the scenes.)

『別府NIGHTS』 was released on 15th of December, 2006. 10 years ago. Besides making it now available on Bandcamp, Gilles Snowcat leaked a few laconic comments on what many still see as his masterpiece, and some rare pictures of what was nurturing the creation of those 5 unique pieces of music.
There's a double truth about rock stars: they all want to find their musical DNA. And they all fall in a deep, consuming love for Japan once they step inside the Rising Sun for the first time.
Waiting for the evening. (別府市)
Let's take David Bowie. He always admitted having found his musical DNA with his so-called Berlin era. And he fell in love with Japan, to the point of finding some shelter there.
What's the link with Gilles Snowcat? Obviously, it's even stronger: he found his musical DNA in Japan. Precisely: "There's a span of time, let's say, when all the good witches were suddenly very present, very awake, and they were like saying Go ahead, little Cat, write songs and they'll be good, very good."
Blue is the prelude of the night. (別府市)
That span can be seen as from the Autumn 2001 till early 2016, but Snowcat gives a more focussed explanation:
"It really started with the Cà Phê & Pizza song, I don't know but something strange happened, it was a feeling that something new has just arrived. You could feel the air was carrying some magic, not sissy magic but some spell, some bewitching…"
When there's rock, there's fuel. (別府市)
After all, wasn't Gilles born on Mardi Gras day? This inspirational trance led to a bunch of great releases, including the most seminal, Beppu Nights, making the news 10 years after its release.
Make the news like 10 years ago… and 10% discount 'till 1st of January 2017 if you buy Beppu Nights and type the secret code ILOVEJAPAN.
More visual memories from that enchanted era -when you reach a point and know that whatever you'll do next, you're in and there's no turning back and that's the thrill of it all. That's Japan. That was in 2006. And still in 2016. Merry Xmas and have a shockingly great year 2017.
Blur is the night. (大分市)
The train was leaving at some point. (小倉市)
Gilles Snowcat, somehow under heavy fascination. (別府市)
Lust for life, life for lust. (京都)
Creatures of the night. (東京)
Cats DO rock. (小倉市)
Limousines in waiting for some ageing rock star. (熊本市)
Another city, another night, another river, another high. (京都)
Leather and old trains. (大分市)
Addicted to the mighty 餅. (別府市)
Yet another city. (大阪???)
Another rock star pleasure. (大分市)
Colours of the night are like a siren's song to rock children. (東京)

The PiLT Sessions: dark, gloomy but somehow a necessary evil.
Posted: November 3, 2016 in In the studio, Music, News

Gilles Snowcat's criminal record?
Party In Lyceum's Toilets, the massive double CD from Awaken released in 2001, is a criminal record in its own special way: it follows you all through your life and career, everywhere you go. Whatever you do, you'll be constantly reminded of that very past deed, compared to it and most surprisingly: blamed of the fact that you don't do it anymore. Gloomy crimes bring unexpected prestige.
Shit into gold
Art is very forgiving field: your technical flaws turn into strengths with the magic wand of time. Shit becomes gold. What was hated is worshiped like a god coming on Earth. Hence the cult status earned with little efforts by uncountable records and artists that were generating nothing but contempt at the time of activity.
The sessions were intense but quite far from the excitement of later Awaken / Snowcat albums. PiLT (as it is often nicknamed) comes from a delicate mix of gloom, coldness, industrial suburbs landscaped, quiet desperation and the paradox of building a wall around oneself yet wanting nothing else than shattering it to dust.
This throbbing mal-de-vivre pours from every note of the 140 minutes that overfill the quadruple album (2CD worthing 4 vinyl albums), and that's precisely why it still appeals to lost teenagers, carrying that indescribable spleen from classroom to the usual stinky toilets of their high-school.
The sessions that resulted in PiLT have kept three pieces that couldn't make it on the album, for a very practical and boring matter of timing.
The first one, "Dream Shapes On A Night Movie", fell out of place once last-minute songs were suddenly completed.
Then "Still Today / I'm Nine", that was planned to be the interlude of side 4, the 1988 songs freshly re-recorded for the occasion. This being said, that side 4 shows to what extent the 1988 songs, full of lust, power and romanticism, weren't matching the PiLT jaded mood.
Talking about "Electric Time", two versions were recorded and without surprise, it's the most Awaken-ish one that was kept for the CD. This very one isn't better or worse, it's simply… different. A taste of the 80's in a world where shine was absent from the process.
Not that PiLT was a lifeless album, far from it. It's just that many things happened for the wrong reasons, like walking on thin ice just to realise when it breaks you only find a devouring quicksand sucking you as strongly as you try to escape.
Teenagers getting old
PiLT was the result of teenagers getting old, which is the worse that can happen to them. Once you open your eyes, either you die, or you get back to lust, astonishment and hunger to live. Luckily, the releases that came the next 15 years from then were back to be made of that sexy, lubricious and neon-lit never-get-old adventurous stuff.

Are you on the pill?

The sessions of Gilles Snowcat's Nama Time brought unexpected consequences in the picture. Side effects, should we say.
Album opener "Continental Breakfast"'s bassist Axel Dumont (aka Mister Dumont) and guitarist Ian Rigillo (aka Fusian) somehow decided, for no reason that we know, to infuriate Gilles Snowcat (aka Gilles Snowcat) by covering his "Yanagigaura", and shortening it to a radio edit, by removing two thirds of its initial substance. Some were sent to jail for lesser offenses.
In the process, they shamelessly asked Snowcat to be part of it, an invitation he obviously reluctantly accepted, after much time spent more on negotiations than anything else.
The joke eventually evolved into an EP where each musician would have a song of his surgically butchered by the other two, without his consent on the final result, this goes without saying.
Fusian and Snowcat chose Mister Dumont's "Jungle House", while Dumont and Snowcat dismantled Fusian's "Jungle Jazzin'" (no jungle pun intended).
Guests came around, and doctors brought some interesting results, and all this you can discover on Gianax's main page: https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/gianax
Some CD copies are on the way to collectors, so be alert and come back to check the Night Cats Lounge every now and then.

"Can you come sing in my bedroom? I don't like live albums, actually."

"Can you come sing in my bedroom?". Oh sure she had had a *few* drinks, yet her offer was a nice icebreaker.
THE LADY LOVES LOU REED
I had just left the small stage to join the audience for a refreshing glass of anything with ice cubes, and that lady was obviously keen on hiring yours truly for an impromptu bedroom concert.
After some unsurprising banter about the alleged similarity between my voice and Lou Reed's 'insecure baritone', she showed me the screen of her gadget called smartphone that just captured with a poor quality my performance given two minutes beforehand. Needless to say I was rather horrified by how an over-expensive machine can destroy the very essence of a live performance, but she didn't seem to care whatsoever. She quickly disappeared in the crowd and I didn't think of it anymore. I had to deal with someone else who wanted to chit-chat about how strangely my vocal cords were similar (following her) to someone named Tom Waits. That sense of déjà-vu wasn't due to my newly opened bottle of absinthe…
A FLY ON THE WALL
The previous demoiselle came back, after having obviously ordered some complementary glasses, and before she could reiterate her request in front of my lovely girl who joined me since then, I assured her that I was thinking of releasing a live album and would be delighted to sign a CD for her when it's released, to replace her lousy smartphone recording. Her reply surprised me:
– "I don't like live albums. I feel I'm not part of it. I'm just a fly on the wall, 'cause the band doesn't sing for me. They sing for the audience who was there at that moment. A live album is just cold news for me."
THEN CAME THE LATINO ALPHA MALE
Now that was quite thought-breaking! Me the fan of live albums and bootlegs, I never considered that fact. She continued:
– "I don't give a shit about your live album, Gilles, unless you only sing for me. I'm waiting for the live album that makes me feel it's sung for me only."
She moaned as a Latino alpha male was approaching with eyes that could kill a T-Rex in a glimpse, and it didn't take more than a second to understand he was the Mr Right of the drunken lady. She followed him with a sudden aura of submission and I secretly prayed that she wouldn't mention him her idea of having me singing in her bedroom.
A LIVE ALBUM… JUST FOR YOU?
Yet, her wish of having a live record that's been sung just for her made me brainstorm although the combination of absinthe, my baby and the late hour wouldn't push me to.
It's only the morning after, enjoying the strongest Vietnamese coffee in front of my old organ trying to distort a blues scale the most Snowcat-way, that the solution popped-up and blew my mind.
Instead of recording some live performances in front of an audience and sharing the result afterwards, why not recording the live shit in a totally empty space with each and every fan in mind, and offer them the album as a very personal gift?
Not only this would be a more unique way to share a precious live performance, but also, let's be honest, it would avoid the dreadful sound, the faux-départs, the glitches and the vocal whims that are so human on a stage but so annoying on a record?
BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH…
So in July, when you were all sunbathing in some overcrowded Spanish beach deafened by fashionable DJ's worst tastes of music, I gathered a few bad cats and we invested a lovely place in an artistic place of Brussels, the Composers' Studio, and one two three we recorded everything on the spot. Oh sure there's the lot of unexpected stuff and even glitches and unrequited laughter, but isn't it what makes a live album worth its price?
And if you really don't like live albums, even in your cosy bedroom, well we're included a brand new studio song that we recorded in some extra time.
I don't know what happened to the drunken chick and her protective salsa dancing boyfriend, but I'd be forever grateful to her for solving my live problem obsession and my need to release a successor to the ubiquitous "Moko Moko Collection" in just a few hours. She might never know about it, but it's now you who'll benefit of something unique, intimate and kinky. Are you tantalized or a little scared? Be careful of what a drunken lady wishes, it might all come true. And it'll give your ego more pleasure time.

A breakfast with Gilles Snowcat?
Posted: May 5, 2015 in Collectible, In the studio, Music
Tags: Cinnamon Lilly, Continental Breakfast, demo, Gilles Snowcat, Green Fairy
You, as do the most faithful fans of Gilles Snowcat, often wait for the sunset to have turned into a starry, sometimes cloudy, coffee-dark night to push the play button and let Gilles Snowcat's love songs after dark fill the room.
You look at the golden beverage that awaits you to drink it, can it be whisky or some other kind of spirit.
The night will most likely turn to be in night satin… Life is so short and temptation is so close…
A night like this is, as to quote old clichés, is a night that you wish would never end.
Yet it does. The sun comes back (providing the clouds allow him to), caressing your sleepy eyes, trying to make you forget what happened just a few hours before.
Morning is no more the time for Snowcat's love songs after dark. You promise yourself you won't be tempted anymore when evening comes. You fell into temptation, into the overuse of a dirty little guilty pleasure.
However, as the coffee pours its magic drops in your cup, something draws you to commit the sin again. It's breakfast time, and you already need your dose. Long before dark. You got it. "Continental Breakfast", a song that already carries its load of nefarious rumours and questions.
Gilles Snowcat's very own idea of a continental breakfast…
According to who knows best, "Continental Breakfast" is a demo mysteriously leaking from sessions of the long-awaited forthcoming record from Gilles (ooh really? Holy shit, this really going to happen?).
Why is "Continental Breakfast" published almost officially is yet to be explained, though some high-powers may have more pressure than we may think. Perhaps…
Whatever it is said, "Continental Breakfast" is available on a rather unique version, something you should treasure.
And if you wonder why it is sold 2,99 dollars instead of the regular price for other Snowcat songs, the reason is plain simple: one has to feed the musicians playing on the next album. And there's no mystery here: the better they're fed / paid, the better they play. Ditch the myth of starving artists who produce their best!
So if you enjoyed "Continental Breakfast", could we gently but firmly ask you to buy your own copy? (PayPal makes it friendly) You'll contribute to keep the band satisfied. And… productive. At the end of the day, it's your own pleasure that will be enhanced. As good as… a breakfast with Gilles Snowcat.
from the Night Cats, 05/05/2015.
ps: On a technical side:
"Continental Breakfast" is one of the songs coming from the songwriting collaboration between Gilles Snowcat and Cinnamon Lilly's Grand Leader Renato Ronchetti.
The Green Fairy mix comes from a series of demo recordings that clearly deserve their Green Fairy title… You'll figure out why. You know best.

'NARITA 3' is a high-yielding and disease-resistant hybrid that is related, through its female grandparent, to a group of cooking and beer bananas called East African highland bananas (EAHB). 'NARITA 3' is named after NARO and IITA, the institutes that jointly developed the NARITA hybrids.
Two crosses were performed to obtain 'NARITA 3'. The triploid EAHB cultivar 'Enzirabahima' was crossed with a wild source of disease resistance to produce a tetraploid. This tetraploid was then crossed with an improved diploid to produce the triploid hybrid 'NARITA 3' (see Breeding strategy below).
'NARITA 3' has been tested on station in Uganda. Its primary use is as a juice type.
'NARITA 3' is a secondary triploid obtained by crossing a disease-resistant tetraploid (917K-2) with an improved diploid developed by FHIA (SH3362).
The diploid male parent SH3362 was the product of a cross between two improved diploids: SH3217 (itself the product of a cross between two improved diploids: SH2095 and SH2766) and SH3142 (itself the product of a cross between two 'Pisang Jari Buaya' (AA)).

Mililani's Jana Fukushima won the girls individual state bowling title at Hickam Bowling Center on Friday. Photo by Craig T. Kojima/Star-Advertiser.
Nakoa Fukushima was 10 when his mom decided he would take up bowling.
He went along for the ride, keeping older sister Jana company. Makoa had fun and still does when he practices at the Naval Station. His high score is already 166, though mom, Leinani, says his regular scores aren't quite close to that.
Jana Fukushima? In one year, the Mililani junior went from novice bowler to Hawaii state champion.
"Oh my goodness. I don't know what to say," Fukushima said when a reporter approached her for an interview.
Ask her about the oil patterns used at the Billy Tees/HHSAA Bowling State Championships at Hickam Bowling Center on Thursday and Friday. Fukushima will shrug. In fact, even though the lanes at Hickam are said to be much drier than anywhere else on Oahu — one bowler said they have more traction than the lanes in Lihue — they didn't have an adverse effect on Fukushima.
"It was OK. I'd miss my spot and still get a good outcome. If I did that at Schofield, it wouldn't be as good," she said.
When she began bowling a year ago, it was like the beginning of The Natural. In the months since, she has rolled a 231 game at practice. On Thursday, her six sets included a 200 game: 142, 202, 197, 134, 147, 178. By the time the girls were done, it was past midnight thanks to a two-hour delay earlier. The boys competition ran long, and then the machine that applies oil to the lanes broke down.
On Friday, Fukushima was consistent: 160, 156, 167. With a 1,487 total, she finished ahead of Campbell's Anuhea Morales-Snelson (1470), Pearl City's Christine Madrona (1442), 'Iolani's Seobeen Chang (1439) and Moanalua's Jazmyn Lazo (1410) to win it all.
Much as Fukushima is squeamish about media attention, she wanted to give a shout-out to her Naval Station coach, Carol Hirokane.
When Fukushima says "traveled," she's not talking about mainland bowling tournaments.
"It was the first time I traveled to other bowling alleys," she clarified.
Now, Nakoa might see more of his big sister.


Last season, inside linebackers Larry Foote and Lawrence Timmons played in all 16 games for the Pittsburgh Steelers and both very rarely came off of the field. Now that the roster has been trimmed down to 53 players, the Steelers primary backups to both those players are rookie Vince Williams and Kion Wilson.
Williams, who the Steelers drafted in the sixth-round this past April out of Florida State, played well during the preseason as he led the team in total tackles as the BUCK linebacker on the third-team defense.
While we only have 111 preseason snaps to go on, Williams seems to have progressed in his ability to drop into coverage, which was a major concern about him coming out of the draft. As expected, he also played well downhill against the run and appears to be a reliable tackler when he brings his feet with him.
Like Williams, Wilson also played well during the preseason as he collected 10 total tackles and was force on special teams. The main concern, however, about both these new inside linebackers is the fact that neither has played a snap in a regular-season game.
Should Foote or Timmons end up missing time in 2013 with an injury, you would have to think that Williams would be the first one off the bench, being as he best suited to play the BUCK role. In other words, if Timmons were to get injured, Foote would likely assume more of a MACK role.
The good thing about the BUCK and MACK positions with the Steelers over the last few years is that they have blurred in their responsibilities as the team now prefers their inside linebackers to be able to play both positions and linebackers coach Keith Butler has even said as much in interviews.
The best-case scenario for the Steelers in 2013 would include both Foote and Timmons once again staying healthy and on the field. While Williams has been a fast learner, he is bound to make his share of mistakes being as it usually takes at least a full season for a Steelers linebacker to fully grasp the defense.
Should Timmons wind up going down, the Steelers could be in trouble as those are some pretty big shoes that not even Foote will be able to fill should he be the one to assume his role.
It is unfortunate for the Steelers that Stevenson Sylvester never panned out and even more unfortunate that Sean Spence missed his rookie season due to a serious knee suffered last season. Spence will start the 2013 season on the Reserve PUP list, but being as the team decided to keep only four inside linebackers, perhaps it is a sign that they think their third-round draft pick from last year will be able to play after missing the first six-weeks of the season.
One can only hope that is indeed the case as the Steelers lack of depth at the inside linebacker position currently rivals that of their offensive line. A healthy Spence, even though he has yet to play in a regular season game like Williams and Wilson, would help out tremendously.

Stephen Douglas Casner held the position of Executive Director at KRM22 at the time of this trade.
Thomas Keith Todd held the position of Chairman and CEO at KRM22 at the time of this trade.
Wow what a team that KRM22 has assembled and a great product strategy. Experts from hedge fund industry, equities, fixed income and commodities. This will be potentially one of the strongest players in the global risk markets. Exciting future ahead. Buying at this early stage will prove very profitable.
First of many acquisitions made here in a very important and worthwhile field. Time to get in at the beginning following the recent IPO.


Fes is a unique city located in Morocco and you won't be bored. We've included a lot of things to do in our Fes Guide. Fes has the oldest and largest Medina (old town) in North Africa and is the cultural, and handicraft center of Morocco. Photographers will have a busy time shooting pictures since there is plenty to capture during your visit.
The Bou Inania Medersa is a beautiful religious building in the city that can be entered by non-Muslim people. It was a school before, and now it can be visited for its amazing architecture and green colors. Visiting is completely free so we expected it being super crowded because we visited it around 4 PM. But there was almost no one!
Be sure to check out the world famous tanneries where they color animal skins. The smell is quite strong, take a bit of mint or a scarf with you. They will try to offer you "mint for free" on your way to the tanneries but we've seen a lot of people paying afterward.
It's the first thing we do once we arrive in a new area. Check the rooftop view if it has a great sunset point. Sit down and enjoy the sun setting behind the beautiful city of Fes.
4. Fes Guide for the best price when buying a carpet / rug.
Fes is known for its handicraft. You will see carpet sellers in all the main streets of the medina. We were advised by a French woman living in Marrakech to go to a certain shop (across the street of Café El Khmissa) where they will give you an honest price. After going through around 20 rugs we selected our favorite one. The rug is 2 meters long and 1.5 meters wide, we paid $150 which we thought was a fair price for a rug.
The medina of Fes is the oldest and largest of North Africa and UNESCO World Heritage. It's unique that it still has much of its history and roots and that's why it's super easy to get lost. We have experienced this a few times at night and that wasn't the most comfortable place to get lost. Make sure to know which signs you should follow before you leave your riad or hotel because even Google Maps gets lost in this maze. Also, see the 10-day Morocco Route.
Also, it's best to stay inside the Fes medina with your riad or hotel. Some gates of the medina will close after 7 PM which makes it even harder to find back your hotel.
Tip: Lost? Ask shop or restaurant owners how to walk back. Loads of kids are awaiting these situations to receive money at the end.
Orange juice is one thing we love, so a cheap fresh one every morning was a perfect start of our day. You can't miss the orange juice stalls in the center of town.
The Kairaouine Mosque is known to be the world's oldest university and second largest mosque in Morocco. It is a gorgeous place with its marble floors, fountains, and all the people praying.
We had the best food at Chez Rachid. It located very close to the popular Bab Boujloud Gate "The Blue Gate". Cafe Clock is more trendy but also very delicious to get a more fusion style of lunch or dinner.
Fes is well connected from all directions. You can get there from Chefchaouen the blue city, as the final destination from you Sahara Desert Trip or from Rabat.
The CTM bus is a great option if you don't mind long drives. The busses are clean and drive safely. There are some other companies that are offering the same drive when the CTM is full but these buses are a lot more uncomfortable.
Get to the coastline of Rabat by catching the train from Fes. One track that leads back and connects to the track to Marrakech.
Where to go after Fes?
The Sahara Desert is one incredible experience that will be in your mind for the rest of your life. Read more about our Sahara Desert Tour.
The blue city, Chefchaouen is one of the best places we've visited in Morocco. By car it's an 3,5 hour drive from Fes. Please don't skip it if you have time!
Less cheaper but way better located and just as beautiful!
Easy to find in the medina and really affordable. Starting at $40 a night.
On a good location, starting at $44 a night.

While Tascam \"bought\" Nemesys, Steinberg seems to have come behind how to do the disk streaming thing. At least it is said to be able to do what Giga does, according to a German music magazine (they have a test of HALION).
I wouldn\'t worry so much about Halion and other software samplers, cos as low as the prizes are for all these - including the giga-x, we will probably have more than one software sampler - just as we used to have more than one synth. You can use these products in different areas, where thay are strongest. It is not \"one or the other\"


Step outside during this time of year and the wide spectrum of yellow, orange and reds should be noticeable, but that hasn't been the case for the first half of fall. Experts say there is a reason for a delay in the bursts of fall foliage.
If you've been wondering why your pictures outside have been a little blah, there's an explanation for it all.
"In late summer, Cleveland experienced a lengthy and persistent period of light rain along with above average temperatures during the early part of fall," said Marty Calabrese, a naturalist for the Cleveland Metroparks.
With the recent cooler temperatures and bright, sunny days, the leaves should have no problem exposing their fall colors.
The leaves stop producing chlorophyll as the days get shorter, which stops the green pigment and gives leaves the opportunity to reveal their true colors that are synonymous with fall.
Just going through his photos and comparing the ones he took this year to last, Calabrese said fall is about 14 days behind fall colors.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources said hikers and those looking to get outside to spot fall's fashionably late debut can expect to see bright reds of the black gum and some maple trees, then russet shades of oaks and the bright yellow of the gingko trees shortly after.
With the amount of moisture still stuck to the trees, there's still time to see the fall rainbow.
"There's still hope to rich and vivid colors," Calabrese said.

Debunking the myths around animals and COVID-19
As fake news about animals and the coronavirus pandemic abounds, Eurogroup for Animals looked into the actual evidence available on the role of wildlife and the impact for companion animals.
The exact origin of the human contamination with COVID-19 is still unclear. It has been determined that the virus was transmitted from a bat, either to another wild animal that acted as intermediate host, or directly to humans. Bats are natural reservoirs of COVID-19 and the contamination happened in the Wuhan market in China which, like thousands of other similar markets in the country, legally and illegally sells wild live animals.
The wild animals sold in the market have not been tested, so it's still unclear if Asian pangolins or masked palm civets, also regularly sold there, were intermediate hosts of the virus. According to the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), the present outbreak is the third documented spillover of a wild animal coronavirus to humans in only two decades that has resulted in a major epidemic.
Animal advocates see China's ban as a positive step, even though it contains a loophole: trade in wild animals for medicinal uses will still be allowed. Vietnam's prime minister has also asked that country's agriculture ministry to draft a directive to stop illegal trading and consumption of wildlife over fears it spreads disease.
While it's a good idea to stay away from other humans, there's no proof that pets can transmit the virus. As in normal times, "it's always a good idea to wash your hands with soap and water after contact with pets," says the WHO, which together with the OIE is a good source of information in these difficult times.
As for the lockdown that most of us are now suffering, one advantage is that we're getting to spend more time with our pets - and they're seeing more of us.
Research has shown that dog and cat owners make fewer annual doctor visits and are less likely to be on medication for heart problems and sleeping difficulties than non-owners. Cat ownership decreases the risk of dying from heart attack or stroke; even the sound of your cat's purr can calm your nerves and lower your blood pressure.
So stay at home, love your pets, and #SpreadLoveNotVirus!

If we've learned anything from celebrities on social media, the last place you want to be when you're recovering from heartbreak is online. You're liable to say and do some things that you will regret…just ask singer Kevin McCall.
We told you earlier this month that the singer seemed to be pining over his ex, model Eva Marcille, who is the mother of his daughter, Marley.
If you'll recall, the pair split after a domestic incident in March, where McCall reportedly kicked down doors in the home they shared, and tried to take baby Marley out of Marcille's arms during an argument. She would later file a restraining order against McCall, and he lost custody of their daughter temporarily.
But things have improved between them and as previously mentioned, McCall has been giving Marcille the eye once again.
But is she giving the eye to another man?
On a more positive side note, can we talk about how cute Marley is?! She's getting so big!

Acuiti Labs is building a new mobile application called Acuiti-Factory Platform which has been designed to work 'with and for' the industrial worker. This new approach takes advantage of external devices such as RFID and gas sensors to drive screens with relevant content. The applications have been built to run on ruggedised Android hand-helds and wearables such as the new Head-Mounted Tablet from RealWear.
Acuiti-Factory Platform will eventually consist of several applications which are accessible via a common user interface, UI. The UI can be tailored for the individual and contain useful information for that user for that day, for example if he is working outdoors the weather forecast will be an applet. But the main part of the display will be the work tasks prioritised for the signed-in worker.
The first Acuiti-Factory Platform application will be 'Rounds' which will manage any routine or scheduled set of work steps, which need to be audited or 'signed-off' as completed. These routines or Rounds could be a simple security or operator rounds, where a pre-defined route needs to be followed and includes a set of weigh-points or 'must visit' points on the route. The application will track the route and via a QR or RFID tag, record that a weigh-point was visited. The tag data will drive the UI and prompt the user on what to do next. The 'Round' can be imported from a third-party system or hand built via a graphical UI on a pc.
We will follow-up on Rounds with a Maintenance Work Order (W.O.) tracking application. This will have a feature where the individual worker or tradesperson will be kept up-to-date with the status of a given W.O. in the plant. However, a W.O. may require different trades people to complete the work. Acuiti-Factory Platform understands the work steps and as one tradesperson completes and signs-off his task the system automatically changes the status of the W.O. task on the next tradespersons device. This feature greatly improves work efficiency and maintenance planners get up-to-the-minute feedback on work status.
Acuiti-Factory Platform has been built to be usable in an industrial setting where communications back to the network may not always be available or patchy at best. The worker device will update and synchronise as and when connection to the network is made. If there are good communications on-site other features of Acuiti-Factory Platform are available. The worker can make a mobile video call or access the internet for content from the OEM of a specific piece of equipment.
In many industrial work places, such as O&G facilities the worker must wear full Personal Protection Equipment PPE. But he must also wear gas detection sensors and potentially personal life signs sensors. Where these sensors are Bluetooth enabled Acuiti-Factory Platform will collect the data and display it in a meaningful way to the wearer via the UI. If a limit is reached i.e. noise limit or the atmosphere becomes dangerous the Acuiti-Factory Platform application will alert the worker and instruct him what to do.

In this age of cut-throat competition in every single industry around the world, it becomes extremely difficult for businesses to protect their brand in the market place. Brands need to establish themselves to increase their goodwill. One way of protecting your brand is by registering a trademark. With the help of a successful trademark registration, a business ensures there is no one that can harm the brand identity with means such as counterfeiting and infringements because the business can now protect its intellectual property legally.
The Covid-19 pandemic had everyone in shambles, with the entire world coming at a halt. Businesses and people from all walks of life were affected, everyone got disoriented. With the introduction of vaccines, things are finally coming back to normal and businesses have started to operate in their full capacity. With new businesses and brands being launched, it is of utmost importance now to register for a trademark!
The Steps to Trademark Success
To understand how you can protect your business through trademark registration in 2021, let us have a look at the basic steps involved which will serve as a guide for you.
Step 1: Brainstorming
The first and foremost is to do proper brainstorming regarding which brand of yours is suitable enough to be registered under a trademark. This is done with all departments coming together and giving their input.
Step 2: Shortlisting
Once every department has provided their feedback, you can list down all the candidates for a trademark registration.
Step 3: Basic Search
The next step is to conduct a basic search to see if your trademark is capable enough to be registered in the first place (if your trademark candidate is strong enough).
Step 4: Comprehensive Search
Apart from the basic search, it is important to see if your trademark is available or not. This is done through an extensive search.
Step 5: Professional Review
After an extensive search and finalizing your trademark, it is important to get your trademark approved by a trademark professional to make sure everything is error free.
Step 6: Trademark Filing
Once everything is aligned, you can start with the filing of your trademark application. The application process differs from country to country. Depending on where you live, a licensed attorney might be required.
Step 7: Trademark Use
After you have successfully registered your trademark, use it to your advantage. You will have increased authenticity and protection.
Step 8: Trademark Validity and Renewal
It is important to keep a check on your trademark's validity, and also to check if there are potential infringers in the market. This will allow you to take necessary action against counterfeiters and will allow you to renew your registration as well.
With things coming back to normal, businesses are registering trademarks frequently and this has increased the commercial value of trademarks. Brands are more aware of their legal identity and seek legal protection to keep infringers away.
Getting a successful trademark registration done also depends on the country you are living in. The process and cost of applications vary from country to country. Some countries have an extensive process to file an application while others require relatively fewer steps in the entire procedure.
The success of the application also depends on a number of factors. First, keep in mind that your trademark must comply with the rules and regulations of the countries where you operate. Otherwise, your trademark registration application can be rejected. Secondly, depending on the country you are seeking trademark registration in, a local power of attorney of that country may be required to successfully process the application.
Regardless if you intend to trademark your brand's name or slogan, anything you trademark should be unique. Consumers want something that resonates with them, something they feel they can connect with. If your customers feel that the brand is unique and it also has a trademark registration done, it will establish a sense of authenticity of your brand.
Final Thoughts on Trademark Registration
All in all, it is vital to get a trademark registered to protect your brand's identity. Your competitors will have an upper hand in the marketplace if you fail to get your trademark registered.
Keep your business's intellectual property protected from infringers and counterfeits and gain legal protection against perpetrators. With the help of a successful trademark registration, you will improve your brand image and establish authenticity.
How do I register for a trademark?
