19 Unreleased Radiohead Songs That Could Be on Their Next Album

When looking forward to a new Radiohead album, it's not a bad idea to look backward. "Nude," a song the rock deconstructionists first teased in their 1998 tour documentary Meeting People Is Easy, didn't show up on a record until 2007's In Rainbows. "I Will," another song teased in the OK Computer-era film, eventually resurfaced twice: first with reversed instrumentation as "Like Spinning Plates," from 2001's Amnesiac, and then moving the usual direction again under its own name on 2003's Hail to the Thief. Maybe that's part of Radiohead's appeal among critics: They're meticulous revisers.
Few details have emerged about the follow-up to 2011's The King of Limbs, but a press release for this year's Primavera Sound Festival promised "the presentation of the new album by the British band Radiohead." The group's members formed a new company in October called Dawn Chorus LLP, similar to steps they took ahead of the last two Radiohead albums. Around the same time, guitarist Jonny Greenwood poured cold water on reports the album was complete, but said that "lots has been recorded." Since then, it has turned out that the Primavera gig is only one of an array of live dates, Radiohead's first since 2012. Adding another wrinkle to the anticipation, Jack White confirmed back in 2012 that Radiohead had recorded something at his Third Man Records in Nashville. Radiohead's management passed along Pitchfork's latest request for any insights about the new album to the band's U.S. publicists, who declined to comment.
With all that in mind, here's a rundown of selected Radiohead songs that have yet to appear on record, potentially making them available for the as-yet-untitled ninth album. Given that Radiohead released their discarded James Bond theme for free last Christmas, it seems a bit unlikely it'll make the cut on the new album; the same goes for unreleased fan favorite "True Love Waits," which appeared on 2001 live EP I Might Be Wrong, and non-album singles from the King of Limbs era (like "The Daily Mail" and "Staircase"). And it's not as if Yorke and Radiohead's setlists over the years are lacking for unreleased material.
Take note, though, that when it comes to Radiohead songs, past performance may not predict future results. "Reckoner," the falsetto- and strings-centered In Rainbow reverie that ranks among the band's best work, was originally debuted live in 2001 as a jagged, guitar-driven number that separately evolved into Yorke's 2009 solo track "Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses." You can't take unfinished songs with you.
"Silent Spring"
"If I was going to write a protest song about climate change in 2015, it would be shit," Yorke said in an interview published by French magazine Télérama last November. On December 4, performing at a climate change concert in Paris, he gave a solo acoustic debut of what has all appearances of a quite powerful protest song. Reputedly titled "Silent Spring," the same as Rachel Carson's landmark 1962 environmental tome, this song finds Yorke warning, "We'll take back what is ours/ One day at a time." In what has been taken as a possible hint that this is a Radiohead song rather than a Yorke solo tune, at one point during the performance he said, "This is Jonny's bit."
"Desert Island Disk"
At the same Pathway to Paris climate concert late last year, Yorke also offered up another solo acoustic debut. Being called "Desert Island Disk," this one deals in a romance-tinged figurative language, stretching from the image of "the wind rushing round my open heart" to the closing assertion that "different types of love are possible." That's backed here by serpentine guitar figures. No "Jonny's bit"-style tells here, but the timing would have made sense to play something intended for the next record.
"The Present Tense"
A third unreleased song Yorke performed at December's climate change concert dates back to 2008 at least, as fansite Citizen Insane documents. In the latest incarnation of "The Present Tense," Yorke gracefully picks out flickering arpeggios while singing counter-intuitively of "dancing" and "freaking out." In between haunting bits of wordless falsetto, he murmurs, "I won't stop now, I won't slack off/ Or all this love will be in vain." Yorke has also performed the song during his shows with Atoms for Peace, and YouTube has an excellent live recording from a 2009 solo set.
"Identikit"
Radiohead debuted "Identikit" in Miami in 2012 and deemed it important enough to perform later that year on Austin City Limits (above). Overlapping vocals and fidgety percussion give way to guitar-swept sections that could have the makings of a new fan favorite. Lyrically, Yorke is once again melancholy about romantic affairs (as he has been in recent unreleased tracks), confiding that "I don't want to know" about "you messing me around" after going so far as to insist, "Broken hearts make it rain." Give this man a hug!
"Skirting on the Surface"
Radiohead performed this bleak slow-groover live for the first time in Dallas in 2012 (above), but it has the type of long roots that, based on the band's prior history, suggests it may be heard from again. Yorke debuted "Skirting on the Surface" in a 2009 solo piano rendition with the band that would become Atoms for Peace. According to Citizen Insane, variations on the title phrase have recurred in the band's online posts going back to the OK Computer days.
"Cut a Hole"
Debuted in Miami the same night in 2012 as "Identikit," this fantasy of a long-distance connection builds up gradually, and despite the flowers Yorke sings about having bought, it's not without a whiff of menace. "Wish that I could come out of your phone/ Superhero powers," he begins. By the time the cymbals crash, he's reaching for that falsetto, promising, "Wish that I could flick on all those lights/ Lift this all away/ See that stretchy smile go/ Right across your face."
"Full Stop"
A rhythm-section workout from their 2012 tour, "Full Stop" (also sometimes stylized "Ful Stop") layers crystalline keys over Yorke lyrics like, "You really messed up this time" and "The truth will mess you up." Lyrics and guitar tabs for this song went up for auction on eBay months before fans could hear the first comprehensible audience recordings, from Chicago (above).
"Open the Floodgates"
"Don't bore us/ Get to the chorus," Yorke begins in this song's proper live solo debut, played languidly on piano as part of the same proto-Atoms for Peace set that introduced "Skirting on the Surface." According to Citizen Insane, a soundcheck of the song was recorded as far back as 2006, and Colin Greenwood has referred to the title as "Porous."
"Big Boots"
Also known as "Man-O-War" and performed live in the '90s (and again in 2002), this The Bends-era anthem would hardly be the first song from Meeting People Is Easy to find a place later in Radiohead's discography (see again: "Nude" and "I Will").
"Follow Me Around"
Also from Meeting People Is Easy, this one got its live premiere in 2000 but returned in a 2009 Yorke solo gig and with Atoms for Peace in 2010.
"I Froze Up"
Debuted by Yorke in a 2002 webcast, "I Froze Up" got a reprise, again as a solo keyboard ballad in 2010 (above) and became part of Atoms for Peace's tour. In it, Yorke sets out a string of unlikely metaphors worthy of English teachers, starting with, "You're the cream in my airport coffees."
"Lift"
Like "Big Boots," this song was on Radiohead setlists in the mid-'90s and returned in 2002, in this case with a mellow pace and slightly different words. Then again, Radiohead's Ed O'Brien once called the original "a bogshite B-side."
"Burn the Witch"
Radiohead have twice teased fans live, in 2006 and 2008, with piano chords apparently drawn from this song, and in 2007 Yorke posted possible lyrics on the group's Dead Air Space blog. Citizen Insane tracks related verbal snippets to the Hail to the Thief artwork.
"Come to Your Senses"
Little solid information exists about this one, down to its title, but the snippet above was reputedly recorded during a 2006 soundcheck in Berkeley, California. Another version may or may not have gone for nine minutes and include a Jonny Greenwood banjo solo.
"Villain"
Yorke soundtracked a fashion show with this wordless piece last year. A song with this caliber of twinkling piano chords, which segue into Yorke's remix of DOOM's "Gazzillion Ear" here, seems at least as likely as a revival of that decade-old banjo solo, right?
"Wake Me (Before They Come)"
Also scanty as far as details go, this elegiac, guitar-driven song was reportedly performed during a 2008 soundcheck in Los Angeles.
"Riding a Bullet"
Not just lacking in information but also discernible audio, Radiohead played a song that fans have nicknamed "Riding a Bullet" in at least two 2009 soundchecks, according to Citizen Insane.
"I Lie Awake"
All that's streaming is a roughly 30-second, almost-unlistenable snippet, but according to Citizen Insane, Colin Greenwood identified this song as "I Lie Awake" after its 2008 soundcheck debut in Dublin.
__"Dawn Chorus"
__The name of Radiohead's recently formed company is also a song title Yorke reportedly referred to in 2009. No audio appears to exist.

A call for joint efforts to protect wetlands
KNA1 January 30, 2022 Counties, Editor's Pick, Environment, Kiambu 0
Residents of Kikuyu sub-county residing around Ondiri Swamp have been urged to help conserve and safeguard the wetland due to its consistent degradation.
As part of preparations to mark the World Wetlands Day that will be observed on February 2,2022, Kiambu Governor James Nyoro flagged off races and a clean-up exercise in Kikuyu Sub-County, supported by various partners including Friends of Ondiri and the National Government.
Friends of Ondiri are a non-profit organization that takes care of the Ondiri wetland area for the preservation of the Ondiri ecosystem.
Speaking during event that involved racing activities which comprised 3-kilometer race, 5-kilometer race and 10-kilometer races, County Executive for Water, Environment and Natural Resources David Kuria noted the event is meant to sensitize residents of Ondiri swamp on the importance of preserving the swamp which is currently the largest natural swamp in East Africa.
"We are calling upon all stakeholders and more so the people living around the swamp to protect the wetland and to shun activities that are slowly killing these beautiful wetlands," Kuria said.
"Ondiri swamp is only used as a guiding model since there are numerous wetlands in Kenya which should also be protected by the government as they serve as a conducive ecosystem and create a home for a variety of both flora and fauna," Kuria added.
Mr David Wakogi, the Founder and Coordinator of Friends of Ondiri Wetlands (FOW) expressed gratitude to public and private entities who have taken up the campaign to spearhead the need for conserving Ondiri Swamp.
"We are grateful to all our partners who helped in organizing this activity we hope to have more similar initiatives to promote conservation of wetlands due to their vantage position in fighting against climate change," Mr Wakogi said.
National Environment Complaints Committee (NECC) Secretary Dr John Chumo, who was also present at the event reiterated that in order for the Government to attain the 10 per cent targeted forest cover by 2030 both forests and wetlands need to be well conserved and protected.
The NECC Secretary further urged members of parliament (MPs) not to pass proposed amendments of deleting section 34(2) in the Conservation Act (2018).
"As environmentalists we are very concerned with regard to the proposed deleting of the section 34(2) which encompasses the government protecting forests and reserves boundaries from encroachment, because we don't want to go back where we were 10 years ago… forest cover is significant to human and animal sustenance" Dr Chumo said.

NJB are a local company who have been operating in and around Epsom for over 20 years. Our first operation at the Chalk Pit commenced in the 1990's. Eight years ago the main focus of our operations moved to Wimbledon, however in 2019 we returned to the Chalk Pit taking over the lease from 1st Place Grab and Skip Hire Limited in the south eastern corner of the site.
Following a review of the historic planning and operations at the site it was determined the best way of managing the site, in line with Environment Agency guidance, is to undertake the waste activities within purpose built enclosures. This has significant benefits relating to the management of dust, noise emissions and site drainage. Ultimately it will result in benefits for the local community. We are not seeking an increase in permitted tonnages or a change to the operations that have been taking place at the site over many years.

Top-15 Beautiful Austrian Women. Photo Gallery
Surprisingly for many Western men, Austrian women also have a knack for handmade crafts. There is an efficient probability you'll often see your sweetheart knitting, embroidering, doing pottery, scrapbooking, or using different ways to express her inventive facet. These things will give a novel allure to your house and make it really feel like home. Austrian women are naturally good at maintaining the house tidy and neat.
As in any big metropolis, there will be internationals, and because of Erasmus, there's fairly a giant international student setting to take a look at when you visit. I managed to get several flags, amongst them Spanish, Serbian, Croatian, Latvian and Austrian. The Freiheitliche Partei Österreich or FPÖ (Austrian Freedom Party) has an opportunity at turning into the bulk get together in the up-coming Bundeswahl (Federal Elections). This would give them the place of Bundeskanzler (Federal Chancellor), making them head of the Bundesregierung (Federal Government). The FPÖ has shut relations with Geert Wilders (Dutch Party for Freedom) and Marine Le Pen (Front Nationale).
Besides the plain level talked about above, I also went there to review women of austria. The architecture there's thoughts-blowing, like Rome jacked up on steroids.
Why are Austrian brides good for marriage?
The first big distinction is the best way Austrian and Russian brides present themselves. If you've ever seen Russian brides, you already know that these women are huge fans of heavy makeup, impressive hairstyle, and attractive clothes that may not always be appropriate. Austrian women have a way more understated yet subtly elegant method to dressing and sporting makeup, which allows them to at all times look excellent for any occasion.
These women consider in equal partnerships in families and you will need to share the family duties if you wish to create a strong foundation in your love. For an Austrian woman, relationship is not just a source of leisure.
In general, their options are beautiful sufficient, however not as typically as girls with Slavic look or southern Europeans. Austrian women have an unusual look, inspired by the magnificent nature of this country. High mountains, protected forests, crystal clear lakes, lovely Tyrolean villages and masterpieces of metropolis architecture impress even probably the most pampered vacationers. The legal place of women in Austria improved since the middle of the Seventies.
At least that is what a few of you could have said, including Indian expat Dhruti, regardless of that fact that she issues engaged to an Austrian. She feels that many Nine men are afraid of lengthy-term vienna and taking over the accountability of a austria – as well as the prospect of getting to share their income with their partner. Austria will get its first feminine chancellor, temporarily30.05.2019 President Van der Bellen has named Brigitte Bierlein interim chancellor to take over for the outgoing Sebastian Kurz. The first woman to hold the office, Bierlein will serve as chancellor till elections in September. She studied at the University of Vienna, passing the choose's examination at simply 26 years outdated, based on her biography on the Austrian Constitutional Court website.
Perhaps we should always meet, he mentioned, although he felt he had to be upfront and say he had reservations about me. It's true that I was deterred by your apparent provide of intercourse on our first date, he stated, and although you assured me you had been joking, I'm undecided that you have been joking, entirely. Austrians tend dating be properly-educated and polite – and men like to relationship chivalrous, holding open doors for an area and serving to her with her coat. Earlier this week, the federal government of Sebastian Kurz was ousted after losing a motion of no-confidence in parliament.
Whenever you take your Austrian magnificence for an evening out, you possibly can rest assured that she would be the best-dressed guest at any event. Austria is a comparatively small country, but tens of millions of Western men are conscious that Austrian brides have every thing you could ever dream of. With any Austrian bride you decide to make your wife, you possibly can look forward to the following traits.
While it's true that Austrian and German girls share a lot of similarities, together with their language, Austrian women have many wonderful qualities that make them essentially the most coveted European brides. Austria's constitutional court dominated in 2017 that very same-sex couples ought to have the proper to marry from Jan. 1, 2019.
I took a little facet journey to Bratislava and then onwards to Vienna. From Prague, it's fairly simple—4 hour prepare ride to Bratislava, then simply an hour by bus between Bratislava and Vienna. While I wasn't trying to recreation any Austrian women, I did have a follower on Twitter attain out to me and supply to discuss Austrian girls and the courting tradition there.
Vienna in Fashion
Unless your date offers you the categorical permission to handle her using her first identify only, you possibly can solely use the word "Frau" and her last name when engaged in dialogue all through a date. You will never see them talk rudely to others neither will they insult you on the slightest provocation.
And in Austria girls aren't as interesting as in Vienna. It is troublesome to search out many particular beauties within the mountain areas. Despite these characteristics, this European country additionally boasts stunning celebrities.

El riu Mataquito és un curt riu costaner de Xile, situat en els límits de les províncies de Curicó i Talca (Regió del Maule).

Es forma per la unió dels rius procedents dels Andes, el Teno (de 120 km de longitud) i el Lontué (que junt amb la seva font el Colorado, assoleix 126 km), els quals es troben a uns 14 km a l'oest de Curicó, corre vers al sud-oest fins al poble de Huerta, després al nord-oest i per fi a l'oest fins a desembocar en l'Oceà Pacífic als 35° 4'S i 72° 12 O.

Forma diversos braços, entre els quals i resten les fèrtils illes Contuntué, Palquivudi i d'altres. És navegable per embarcacions de poc calat.

En la part pantanosa prop de la seva desembocadura s'hi desenvolupà el 29 d'abril de 1557, una de les batalles més cruentes entre araucans i espanyols; l'anomenada Batalla de Mataquito.

Which city has best public schools for young children with Autism?
Hi, we are also looking at either Chattanooga or Knoxville. Our primary concern is which area has top notch public school programs for children with Autism. Our son is a first grader and currently has excellent support and school placement in the Washington DC area. I have looked at public school websites throughout both cities and have been fairly disappointed. I can't find any yahoo groups or other specific forums to research potential areas. We are willing to move to a zip code/school neighborhood that has a self-contained autism classroom for K-2nd graders with 1 autism teacher and up to 3 aides and no more 8 students. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I'm also debating between Chattanooga and Knoxville.
I was initially enchanted by the smokies and the old houses in Knoxville.
However I am intrigued by the art museum and close proximity of the mountains in Chattanooga. It sounds like there are some neighborhoods with older houses in Chattanooga as well, such as St. Elmo.
Also I am considering the tri-cities area, possibly living in Abingdon VA because I like a rural setting.
You also have to remember that Jax has enforcement over that type of stuff. I think it was called "Cleaner Greener Jacksonville Program". You could not have unregistered cars in view from the road. Had to have your grass mowed. I know both of those from a visit from one of the Enforcement people. I was rebuilding a bike and our yard was so wet (a strip mall parking lot graded right to my yard) that we could not even use a push mower. Had to let it dry out some.
As far as I know, there are no programs like that in Tenn. If there is one in the City limits, these are not Incorporated Counties like Jax is. City might have some type of regs. about it but then the County might not.
here is an answer for Autism services in Chattanooga. I don't know about what the schools offer, but I'm sure it can be found out pretty easily. If you would like the original link to the site that posts this info, please message me and I will send it to you. It is from a proboard.

Or "men," actually. Here we present a charming little video from a year ago in which Bill Murray interrupts the day of construction workers building Poets House in New York, to read them some poetry. I note that the only poem that got applause was an Emily Dickinson one; those construction workers are total softies, deep down!
Poets House has created a home for all who read and write poetry. From 1990 to 2007 that home was located in an intimate loft at 72 Spring Street in Soho. As rent increases began to make Soho an impractical location, Poets House was fortunate to be designated by the Battery Park City Authority as a rent-free tenant in a new building on the banks of the Hudson River. In the summer of 2009, Poets House moved to its permanent home at 10 River Terrace in Battery Park City and opened to the public on September 25, 2009.

How to reliably estimate the tortuosity of an animal's path: straightness, sinuosity, or fractal dimension?

The tortuosity of an animal's path is a key parameter in orientation and searching behaviours. The tortuosity of an oriented path is inversely related to the efficiency of the orientation mechanism involved, the best mechanism being assumed to allow the animal to reach its goal along a straight line movement. The tortuosity of a random search path controls the local searching intensity, allowing the animal to adjust its search effort to the local profitability of the environment. This paper shows that (1) the efficiency of an oriented path can be reliably estimated by a straightness index computed as the ratio between the distance from the starting point to the goal and the path length travelled to reach the goal, but such a simple index, ranging between 0 and 1, cannot be applied to random search paths; (2) the tortuosity of a random search path, ranging between straight line movement and Brownian motion, can be reliably estimated by a sinuosity index which combines the mean cosine of changes of direction with the mean step length; and (3) in the current state of the art, the fractal analysis of animals' paths, which may appear as an alternative and promising way to measure the tortuosity of a random search path as a fractal dimension ranging between 1 (straight line movement) and 2 (Brownian motion), is only liable to generate artifactual results. This paper also provides some help for distinguishing between oriented and random search paths, and depicts a general, comprehensive framework for analysing individual animals' paths in a two-dimensional space.

LTR courses can be taught at our main facility in Anchorage, or we can come to you. We work closely with the BLM, local pool facilities and Jewel Lake. All our off site training locations are less than 10 minutes from our main school.
Students can expect quizzes and homework assignments during multi-day programs. Many certification levels are available, and students can also receive both college and continuing medical education credits for their participation. You can expect many of our courses to push you to the edge of your comfort zone.
Students begin training by learning about crash positioning and quickly find themselves practicing these skills in a variety of crash simulators. These simulators include helicopter and fixed wing door escapes, blocked exit procedures, smoke escapes, simulated casualties and inversion. This same day students are given post-crash survival training at our field site to continue their hands-on experience. Day two of the course addresses the specific area of water ditching's and techniques for survival.


ITEM: I am offering to include somebody's pet in my next novel for Orion, which will be out in April 2012. I don't mind what sort of creature it is! I am just planning the novel now so this is great timing.
BIO: I'm Ruth Saberton and I write for Orion. I was shortlisted last week for the RNA comedy novel of the year, but was pipped at the post by the very fabulous Jill Mansell. That's an honour as far as I'm concerned!
My first novel for Orion is called "Katy Carter Wants a Hero" and my next out in May is called "Ellie Andrews has Second Thoughts" I also write for Little Black Dress under the pen name of Jessica Fox.


Dollar Non¢ents: Shaking the Foundations of Faith?
IF people are dismayed to find fresh examples of the type of faith that blames victims of natural disasters … for causing their own misery, it is comforting to see that the other kind of faith is also alive and well. For that, we need look no further than Franklin's adopted home state, Pennsylvania. No doubt many of those who voted for science on Election Day in Dover went to church the following Sunday.
For Franklin and his like-minded contemporaries, scientific pursuit was the ultimate act of faith; faith that there was an order to be discovered and faith in our ability to discover it.
If scientific pursuit is the ultimate act of faith that there is an order to be discovered, then who is more rational?
2. An atheist scientist who, believing the world has evolved randomly from chaos by improbable events rarely if ever seen today, looks for order and principled coherence in the world.
Good point Mr. Liell. Thank you for setting it up so nicely. And surprisingly, for a random product of chance mutations, Mr. Liell most likely makes another true point, although I am afraid it reflects very badly on the church. No doubt many of those who voted for irrational science on Election Day in Dover did go to church the following Sunday.

Q: Mapping a list of implementations of an interface with Fluent NHibernate I get the following error when using the below mappings:
NHibernate.MappingException: Association references unmapped class: GeoTriggers.Domain.Entities.ITrigger
Entities:
public class Profile
{
    public virtual int Id { get; set; }
    public virtual string Password { get; set; }
    public virtual string Username { get; set; }
    public virtual IList<ITrigger> Triggers { get; set; }
}

public interface ITrigger
{
    int Id { get; set; }
    decimal Latitude { get; set; }
    decimal Longitude { get; set; }
    decimal Radius { get; set; }
}

public class EmailTrigger : ITrigger
{
    public virtual string RecipientAddress { get; set; }
    public virtual string SenderAddress { get; set; }
    public virtual string Subject { get; set; }
    public virtual string Body { get; set; }

    #region ITrigger Members

    public virtual int Id { get; set; }
    public virtual decimal Latitude { get; set; }
    public virtual decimal Longitude { get; set; }
    public virtual decimal Radius { get; set; }

    #endregion
}

Using the following class maps:
public sealed class ProfileMap : ClassMap<Profile>
{
    public ProfileMap()
    {
        HasMany(x => x.Triggers).Cascade.All();
    }
}

public sealed class TriggerClassMap : ClassMap<ITrigger>
{
    public TriggerClassMap()
    {
    }
}

public sealed class EmailTriggerClassMap : SubclassMap<EmailTrigger>
{
    public EmailTriggerClassMap()
    {
    }
}

Using the following FluentNHibernate configuration:
FluentConfiguration fluent = Fluently.Configure(_configuration)
                .Mappings(
                    x => x.AutoMappings.Add(
                        AutoMap.Assemblies(typeof (TEntity).Assembly).Where(
                            assembly => assembly.Namespace.Contains("Entities"))));

All my entities are in a namespace that includes the word "Entities". I did this to avoid having to make all my entities inherit from a common base.
I am trying to keep my configuration to a minimum, so I have opted to allow Fluent NHibernate to run free with its default conventions. Normally, I don't even have class map files. But, now, since I'm trying to map a list of objects that implement a common interface, it has gotten sticky.
The error says that an association (I assume the one-to-many in the ProfileMap) references an unmapped class (ITrigger). According to the docs, it sounds like all I need to have is a class map for the base/interface and subclass maps for the implementations. I have that. What am I missing?

Vanessa Santos Shares New Ways to Tap into Latin American Markets at Make it Big 2021
Whether you're currently selling in Latina America or looking to expand internationally, you're in for a treat.
Our very own Rachel Garcia sat down with business coach and fin-tech expert, Vanessa Santos, at BigCommerce's 2021 Make it Big Conference to discuss how to position your company for global growth.
Vanessa Santos' Key Takeaways at Make it Big 2021
Vanessa Santos is a Latina businesswoman powerhouse who previously led teams at Mastercard and drove product strategy with global FinTechs across areas like Digital Goods and Services, Marketplaces, Payment Service Providers. She also serves as the Spokesperson & Lead for the Women's Leadership Network — a global community focused on creating opportunities to elevate women at all levels in their careers.
In addition to all of that, she's also an ambassador for Girls4Tech, an award-winning entrepreneur, global brand strategist, heart-centric speaker, and a business empowerment coach with success in driving digital innovation.
In this Make it Big 2021 session, expand your knowledge in Latin American markets and learn how to grow your business internationally.
Here are a few key takeaways from Vanessa Santo's Make it Big session:
Rachel Garcia: Latin America is a massive region — and one that's gaining in popularity for many global businesses. Walk us through the current ecommerce market overview, what do merchants need to know about the region?
Vanessa Santos: "I'd like to start with the fact that Latin America is an incredibly fluid and digital economy and has proven itself to be a must have in order to stay in business, to be honest with you. The Latin American population has doubled in terms of mobile penetration usage, in terms of being banked, which means that there is this expectation that if something is sold in the United States or in Europe, that you can also get it in Latin America.
Selling across Latin America isn't a nice to have. It is a must have. And businesses should really consider shifting, whether it's platform services, partnerships, or ad dollars to these markets, because there's a huge penetration of consumers that are willing and ready to spend their money. It's so interesting how our expectations as consumers have changed trade and just how quickly we receive products, how accessible, how can we find them, etc. Online purchasing and online relationships as it relates with consumers and businesses has changed completely."
RG: We'd love to hear a little bit more about what are some of their expectations, what are they looking for and what do businesses need to keep in mind as they're building these business consumer relationships with the region?
VS: "If we think about it, quantitative first, there are about 265 million digital buyers across Latin America, and that is going to continue to grow at a rate of 30 percent, which means that there is a huge opportunity to sell your goods and services to a very diverse population. The expectation now has become that if I see something on my mobile device, if I see something on social media, or if I see something in a commercial and advertisement, I want to be able to get it.
From a qualitative perspective, they want it to feel contextual. Consumers want to feel like they're being spoken to. They want to feel like they're being understood and recognized. Latin American consumers, while they are incredibly diverse, want to feel like you're speaking to them. So copying an advertisement that was clearly made for the American audience and then replacing the audio in Spanish is not going to cut it anymore.
A lot of brands are becoming incredibly savvy and they're understanding their consumer and they're embracing the diversity that is the Latin American population. You have the top six markets — Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, and Peru — that have a demand of people that want to be able to buy the latest silk pajamas or the latest sneakers."
RG: What goes into creating an efficient omnichannel strategy in Latin America?
VS: "When it comes to omnichannel, it's essentially creating a brand extension, an experience across multiple online channels. So, for example, my recommendation would be definitely if you want to sell online, it starts with the basic of a website. Then you should consider, do you need to have an app?
The prominence of leveraging all of these existing platforms and being able to ensure that your consumers can purchase on any of them is what a winning omnichannel strategy looks. It's about being where your consumers are. So, again, if your consumer is predominantly on Facebook, how do you serve up contextual ads or native advertising so that they can feel like they can purchase directly from that?
The announcement between BigCommerce and Mercado Libre was huge because one thing in Latin America is being able to want to access all of these amazing products and with with leverage, essentially being the Latin American challenger to Amazon. They're now bringing this new diversification of products by being able to bring about all of these different product segments that weren't readily available before. So now you have this huge opportunity to attract a much larger audience. With Mercado Libre and BigCommerce announcing their partnership, it will now allow anyone in these five, six, seven key segments to be able to access all of these things, not just from one or two retailers, but from thousands that are part of the of the of the network that these two great companies have built together."

Unmissable shows at Brighton Fringe this year
By Nicholas Abrams
Brighton Fringe has officially launched. With brochures soon to be dropping through letterboxes and already freely available around the city, we've already had a sneak peak at the programme and present the hottest tips for this year's festival, as show highlights are sure to sell out fast.
We'll be providing the largest coverage at the Brighton Fringe in 2016
Although Edinburgh hosts the world's largest fringe festival (and dominated by 'The Big 4' venues as a result), Brighton Fringe – although expected to be the biggest and most well attended yet this year – has still maintained an eclectic mix. A healthy combination of small and larger venues has allowed for more affordable options than Edinburgh, providing the perfect conditions for up-and-coming new work. Competition between venues is friendly rather than cutthroat, creating a community atmosphere that's a unique backdrop to a diverse event.
This year, Sweet Venues are expanding by taking four of the Fringe's Window programme. Ten shows, especially selected by industry experts for the quality of their work, include Deep in the Heart of Me, Groomed, Mummy or The Art of Saying Goodbye and Whisky Tango Foxtrot. With such an excellent pedigree, they are all likely to be hits. Brighton Fringe stakes its reputation on the Window programme leading to further tours, so this may be the best opportunity to be the first to see the next big thing. One show certain worthy of a tour and not to be missed is Police Cops, a 1970s movie style buddy cop show, which has won multiple awards including the Brighton Fringe Award for Excellence at the 2015 Edinburgh Festival.
After just missing out as Venue of the Year in 2015, Lamb Comedy has been quietly growing, albeit under the radar. However, after bagging AGM, runner-up for Show of the Year, they are beginning to make more noise about their increasingly strong line-up. Many award winners and finalists are appearing during their 14 night run and it will be interesting to see if Lamb can progress from runners-up to winners in 2016. They've certainly set their sights on the top spot with a line-up including Lost Voice Guy, Athena Kugblenu and Tom Ward, all winners and finalists at the BBC New Comedy Awards. With this kind of talent, there's a sense that Lamb are looking to be the go-to comedy venue this year.
If the Brighton Fringe were to have its own equivalent of 'The Big 4', then The Warren would surely be in that gang. With one of the largest programmes at the Brighton Fringe, this pop-up venue has built up an enviable reputation. A Game of Scones from Tobacco Tea Company is likely to prove a firm favourite and, after their 2015 Edinburgh Fringe hit The Accidental Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, this small company look like they're successfully choosing marketable shows. There are several big acts including Shit-faced Shakespeare, Max and Ivan: Unstoppbale and Movin' Melvin Brown, which are an easy win for The Warren, but there are also several smaller gems. With its desirable location, The Warren is sure to catch anyone at a loose end who will no doubt be satisfied with the popular range of shows available.
Brighton's Little Theatre has also banked a firm favourite with Richard Bean's runaway worldwide success One Man, Two Guvnors. Set in 1960s Brighton, there's a chance this will be rather special. Another big name Broadway hit comes from Pretty Villain Productions with Glengarry Glen Ross, who also boast Blackbird and Myra as a trilogy of dark dramatic performances. As a contrast, two fun loving 90s based shows are 2 Become 1, a 2015 Edinburgh Fringe sell-out, at Komedia and The Girl From Mars, a Britpop opera in its world premiere, at The Warren. Both seeped in 90s nostalgia, tickets are bound to sell like hot cakes. Finally, the terrific Hungry Wolf return with Runts.
If there's something that's caught your eye and you're planning on booking, please share it with us at Broadway Baby. We'll be providing the largest coverage at the Brighton Fringe in 2016 and we'd love to hear your tips at [email protected].

Хорст Майер (; ) — западногерманский гребец, выступавший за сборную Германии по академической гребле в 1960-х годах. Чемпион летних Олимпийских игр в Мехико, серебряный призёр Олимпийских игр в Токио, двукратный чемпион мира, четырёхкратный чемпион Европы, победитель Королевской регаты Хенли.

Биография
Хорст Майер родился 20 июня 1941 года в Гамбурге.

Занимался академической греблей в Ратцебурге в местном гребном клубе «Рацбургер».

Первого серьёзного успеха на взрослом международном уровне добился в сезоне 1962 года, когда вошёл в основной состав Объединённой германской команды и побывал на чемпионате мира в Люцерне, откуда привёз награду золотого достоинства, выигранную в восьмёрках.

В 1963 году представлял ФРГ на чемпионате Европы в Копенгагене, где в восьмёрках также обошёл всех своих соперников и получил золото.

В 1964 году в восьмёрках одержал победу на европейском первенстве в Амстердаме. Благодаря череде удачных выступлений удостоился права защищать честь страны на летних Олимпийских играх в Токио — здесь в финале пришёл к финишу вторым, уступив только команде из Соединённых Штатов, и тем самым завоевал серебряную олимпийскую медаль. За это выдающееся достижение по итогам сезона был награждён Серебряным лавровым листом, высшей спортивной наградой Германии.

После токийской Олимпиады Майер остался в составе гребной команды Германии на ещё один олимпийский цикл и продолжил принимать участие в крупнейших международных регатах. Так, в 1965 году в восьмёрках он победил на чемпионате Европы в Дуйсбурге, отметился победой на Королевской регате Хенли.

В 1966 году был лучшим в восьмёрках на чемпионате мира в Бледе.

В 1967 году добавил в послужной список золотую медаль, полученную на европейском первенстве в Виши — тем самым стал четырёхкратным чемпионом Европы по академической гребле.

Находясь в числе лидеров немецкой национальной сборной, благополучно прошёл отбор на Олимпийские игры 1968 года в Мехико — на сей раз вместе со своими партнёрами в восьмёрках превзошёл всех оппонентов и заслужил звание олимпийского чемпиона.

Завершив спортивную карьеру, получил высшее образование в области делового администрирования и затем работал в консалтинговой компании. Несколько раз избирался членом Национального олимпийского комитета Германии, в 2008 году участвовал в выборах на пост председателя на пост Немецкой гребной ассоциации, но проиграл Зигфриду Кайделю. Занимался общественной деятельностью, получил известность как активист в борьбе за мир против ядерного оружия.
