You know, sometimes when I hear new hits pumping out on the airwaves, I wonder whether there has been some confluence between musical technology and torture. If you have read Naomi Klein's rather scary book The Shock Doctrine, I think you know what I'm getting at. The number of beats per minute, the effects of sound on the human constitution--sometimes it all seems a little bit formulaic. But the sonic force beats me down, vocals sampled and oversampled atop themselves, nuclear beats. It seems a lot of studio trickery more than musical performances. Maybe its just the new American Idol reality.
But you know, technology doesn't have to be used in the pursuit of evil. Sometimes technological advances can be used to create amazing things. I have albums where people paste together disparate music, using different genres, styles and musical instruments from all over the globe. A lot of times its been hit or miss. I don't know precisely what it is about Invisible Clan, the musical collective overseen by Dan Harper, whether it is just great talent or the next generation of studio innovations. I have to believe it is a potent combination of both factors. In any event, I have to say I am pretty bowled over by this ambitious recording, which I heard about in the NY Times, of all places. The album strikes me as visionary.
A very simplistic thumbnail description of Street Clan (their 2nd album after Punt) would be a collaborative synthesis of Ethiopian music, Jamaican music & fiery post punk. And the music is aggressive sounding. But there are even more things going on here than that, including psychedelia, funk, dance, electronic, Sub-Saharan African music and even some Sonny Sharrock styled fusion guitar. It's not easy to play in a variety of styles well. But when you mix these styles together, seamlessly weaving back and forth you are simply on a level of greatness. On top of this you have some great vocalists performing like Jamaican singer Dennis Wint and the unbelievable Zewditu Tadesse. Hearing him sing is simply revelatory. I think if Joe Strummer were alive today, he would be praising this music to the high heavens.
Anyone who loves interesting music will definitely find a lot to love here. For me it does not get any better than the amazing Bone Flaps. For that song alone the album is worth purchase. A remarkable vocal by Tadesse, and its like he's being backed by New Zealand noise monsters Bailter Space. You have to hear this to believe it.
The crazy thing about this album is that I almost find it too long. I can't sit and listen to all 1.3 hrs on this disc at one time. There is too much going on here. But too much interesting music is of course not any sort of valid criticism. Every time I listen, I hear new things, new instrumentations and subtleties. And righteous echoey dub. Songs like Bone Flaps and Mutant Miners are realizations of fusion music that were in my head. Fusion Music in the dynamic way I always wished it could be.
Highest praise here. Check this out and be amazed. And I just checked out the website for Harper Diabete records. They actually manufacture their own high quality microphones in addition to making recordings.
NEW VIDEO CLIPS EDIT - RAVE from Vj Ultra on Vimeo.
Frome had not seen a moustache like it until Mr. B Gentlemen Rhymer tailored in tweed bowled into Frome.
FromeTV presenter Nigel Peirce quizzed him with questions from our producer Selina cuff on "the formula to stardom", whether "Britain has got talent?" and " if Frome needs to cultivate better chaps and chapettes?" Nigel also got him to play a bit of the banjolele for us in the green room.
Feeling as though the country has plummeted to a satirical bottom from which it may never recover, Mr.B valiantly strides across the country reconnecting hip-hop and the Queen's English with his own invention of "Chap-hop".
ULTRABREAKS - CAUSTIC DISKO - 2011 from Vj Ultra on Vimeo.
It 'twas' the Saturday before Halloween, the air clung to the shadows of the night like a frightened girl….until…Ultrabreaks hosted a Mutant Fancy Dress Special to welcome in the 'witching season'.
Suddenly there was a stomping romp in town as all vamps, zombies, weirdos and assorted freaks got themselves down to the Bath Arms for some killer live Rock, Punk, Metal, and the unfathomable.
FromeTV were sent all a shiver in this Halo of freakish hell, we mesmerised by the deranged chaos of the HATERS and DOCTOR NUT. Then spellbound by the sparks zipping of the vinyl as Caustic Disko, DJ mutes, Clint Parsnip, Mikael Trifle, Tuppeny Warlok and Needy Daft Klump electrified the vinyl.
To top off a supremely hellish night we bumped into visual partner, Vaughn Jublees, who also features in this film.

Here's All The TV Shows Canceled For The Fall Season
By Sa'iyda Shabazz | May 13, 2017
As the current television season comes to an end, all of the major networks are beginning to announce their plans for next season. Naturally, some shows have to go to make way for all the new shows that the networks plan to introduce. It sucks when your favorite show doesn't make the cut, because you've obviously invested a lot of time into watching it and investing in it whether it was on for 1 season or 5 seasons. There's no way to truly know why shows get canceled. Most often it is due to low ratings, meaning that no one is watching but maybe you. When a show you love gets canceled it's like losing a beloved friend. You have to mourn the loss, but at least we get the potential opportunity to keep watching them on Hulu or Netflix.
There are some surprising TV shows canceled in 2017; not all of them were doing poorly in terms of ratings, but their networks clearly felt that their time on the air had come to an end.
It seems that ABC is getting rid of quite a few comedies (hopefully to make room for new ones?) next year. Popular Friday night comedies "Last Man Standing" and "Dr. Ken" were both canceled. If you ask me, "Last Man Standing" which starred Tim Allen, should have been canceled ages ago. And while Ken Jeong is hilarious in roles like "The Hangover" series, his turn as a doctor (which he was before he got into acting) just wasn't grabbing fans by the funny bones.
Family comedy "The Real O'Neals" which starred Martha Plimpton, failed to make a lasting impression, while newbie "Imaginary Mary," which starred Jenna Elfman as a woman who has interactions with her childhood imaginary friend only lasted one season. They are also axing drama "American Crime," which had done solid numbers and acclaim, especially for actress Regina King. They are also canceling Shonda Rhimes produced "The Catch" after two seasons. Popular show "Quantico" is still on the bubble, which means no one knows if it's going to be renewed or canceled.
The list from CBS is currently a lot shorter, but it's surprising to see popular show "2 Broke Girls" at the top of the list. The comedy starring Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs has been on for a whopping 6 seasons. The show has always been a bit polarizing, but it will be weird to not see the crew from the Williamsburg Diner on our TV. Law drama "Doubt," starring Katherine Heigl and Laverne Cox was canceled after only a couple episodes. Also canceled? Movie adaptation "Rush Hour," because come on, how good could it really be without Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. Another movie adaptation, "Training Day," is on the bubble after the death of star Bill Paxton earlier this year. Sherlock Holmes based "Elementary," and Matthew Perry led "The Odd Couple" are also on the bubble.
FOX said goodbye to long running crime show "Bones" this year (which I'm still sad about!) after 12 seasons. They canceled "Pitch," a show about the first female pitcher in Major League Baseball after one season, which is totally disappointing. I'll miss seeing Mark-Paul Gosselaar in a beard and baseball pants honestly. Morris Chestnut's show "Rosewood" was also canceled, and well as popular "Sleepy Hollow." Zooey Deschanel's quirky show "New Girl" is on the bubble. I wonder how much of that is because Deschanel just had a baby?
Rounding out the big 4 networks is the NBC. The peacock channel is home to some pretty popular dramas that were all saved the axe. But some of their more supernatural themed shows were not so lucky. Dark fairytale oriented show "Grimm" was canceled, as well as 'Wizard of Oz' retelling "Emerald City." Crime thriller "Aquarius" also got the boot, as did the time traveling show "Timeless." The new "Celebrity Apprentice" with Arnold Schwarzenegger at the head of the boardroom table is on the bubble.
Hey, at least there is some good news — some of our favorites have been renewed for another season including "Grey's Anatomy," "Nashville," "The Mindy Project," and "This Is Us." For a full list of shows that are still going to be in our weekly lineup, check out US Weekly.
Well, did any of your favorite shows get the boot? If they did, maybe you'll find something new when the next season starts in the fall.

The IBM Smart Camp Global Finals finally have come into the final stretch.
Kicking off the afternoon was guest speaker Gavin Newsome, former mayor of San Francisco and now California Lieutenant Governor.
California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsome speaks with the nine IBM SmartCamp Global Finalists and encourages all of them to move to the great state of California to launch their next big business.
Never mind, cheerleader for the resurgent state of California and Silicon Valley as the global hub of innovation and venture capital.
Newsome opened his comments with a warm welcome to the great state of California, and complimented IBM on its "remarkable capacity to get first round draft choices from around the world," speaking, of course, of the nine IBM Smart Camp Global Finalists in attendance and anxiously awaiting the announcement of IBM Global Entrepreneur of the Year later this afternoon.
Newsome concluded his remarks with a tip of his hat to the IBM smarter planet initiative, acknowledging that 90+% of the world's population will soon be living in cities, and that smart technology, driven by smarter entrepreneurs, will be key to addressing those growth challenges and creating a sustainable framework for their rapid expansion.


← Ultra long haul: What's it like on the world's longest commercial flight?
It's hard to miss Rangitoto Island when you visit Auckland. It forms part of almost every view you'll see, its broad, volcanic shape draped gracefully along the horizon of the Hauraki Gulf. Usually with a few yachts decorating the foreground.
Taking the half-hour ferry trip from the central Auckland waterfront to Rangitoto Island and hiking the one-hour summit track is a highly-recommended day trip in Auckland and for good reason.
You may find it disconcerting to know that Auckland is built on an extensive volcanic field. The city is dotted with nearly 50 volcanoes but don't worry they are safely dormant, unlike some of the other volcanoes in New Zealand!
The hike to the summit takes approximately one hour, depending on your level of fitness and half an hour back to the pier. There's no rush as the trail climbs very gently at first, passing through otherworldly fields of black scoria (basaltic volcanic rock) and plunging through forest with occasional breaks in the trees to see an every increasing view of stunning Auckland surrounded by the blue, blue sea.
There are also great views of neighbouring Motutapu Island, which is not a volcano and had been inhabited by Maori people for a century or more before Rangitoto unexpected started to emerge violently from the seabed! The formation of this symmetrical shield volcano began around 700 years ago and must have been terrifying for the local population!
A number of information boards tell visitors all about the natural history of the island. Just before the summit the path skirts the side of the volcano crater and a side track allows people to walk right around the crater, which is lush with ferns and other greenery.
There is a concrete observation post that was part of Auckland's World War II defences on the summit, as well as a large viewing platform and benches where you can sit and eat your lunch. We were amused by the scurrying brown quail, who are clearly quite comfortable with human visitors.
Birds and birdsong are a significant part of the Rangitoto experience. Being surrounded by melodious Bellbirds, raucous parrots such as the Kaka and Kakariki, and the imitative Tui is wonderful. You'll see pretty Fantails and Silvereyes as well.
First and foremost it is important to understand that Rangitoto is a pest-free island. It is one of New Zealand's many island sanctuaries where endangered native birds and other wildlife can live safe from introduced predators such as rats, stoats and cats that are a problem on the mainland.
The eradication of possums (an introduction from Australia) has allowed the regeneration of a beautiful Pohutakawa forest and the scarlet-flowered display of the 'New Zealand Christmas Tree' must be spectacular in December.
New Zealand's flora and fauna are unique and special, please help to protect it and ensure New Zealanders and tourists can continue to enjoy experiences like visiting Rangitoto Island in the future. The Department of Conservation does an important job looking after the island.
Practically this means you won't find any rubbish bins on the island and you must bring food in sealed containers, taking any leftovers or rubbish off the island when you leave.
On the subject of leaving, make sure you find out the time of the last ferry and catch it because if you don't you'll be spending the night out there!
If you are concerned that the hike to the 260m (850ft) summit of Rangitoto might be a bit much for you, don't worry because DOC have made this New Zealand experience super accessible.
There is a 'road train' – essentially a few open-sided carriages pulled by a big tractor that brings visitors to within 10 minutes walk of the crater and summit. This takes a different route to the walking track so hikers don't see the road train once they have left the landing place.
There is a cost involved and the tour only runs twice a day so it is best to book this ahead if you think you will want to use it. The details are all on the ferry company website.
Enjoy your day on Rangitoto Island!

H/T to Andrew Gerns, who posted the video at The Lead.
I agree with Diana Butler Bass, and I have placed her book, Christianity After Religion, on my wish list. People are hungry for God, hungry for fellowship, but in this uncertain age, the church will need to work out ways of going out to where people are, rather than placing the entire focus on getting people to come into our places of worship. I'm not at all suggesting that the church abandon services in the buildings. I see going out to the people with Ashes to Go, prayer services, and perhaps even eucharistic services as an addition to in-church services. Who knows but that some of the folks out there might one day come into the building, but the goal should be to serve folks outside the buildings by providing worship and proclamation of the Gospel for them in a community, however temporary the gathering may be.


Additional fees are not scams. You'll find further fees in just about each used automotive dealer in Toronto, and in Canada and the United States.
As you prompt I called my vendor to ask about them and tried to clarify them away as costs for auction, fixing small things, etc but after I mentioned that these costs and extras should be included by the asking worth he eradicated them from the deal on the spot along with the taxes on them that he charged. (my guess is that he will get away with it typically so why not attempt).

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I have your list of winter date night ideas right here! If you've been here for a while, or follow my Instagram, you'll know that Date Night is my favorite night of the week! You can check out my Fall Date Night Ideas and Summer Date Night Ideas. With Winter in full swing, the cold, rainy weather can get anyone seriously down. Which is why I think it's even more important to focus on fun things to do to keep your spirits up. Winter date nights can brighten your longest, coldest, darkest days.
Life is so busy these days. When you're trying to balance two schedules it can be hard fitting in quality time with your honey. Which is why date night is more important than ever! We have to make a conscious effort to have time to connect and strengthen our relationships. So here are a few ideas to get in your quality time in.
This is one of my favorite dinner dates at home. While, I love a fondue restaurant, it is so much more economical, and fun, getting to do it at home. We love getting an assortment of seafood, meat, and veggies, then whisk up dipping sauces. One of the best meals you'll ever have!
Hockey games are one of my favorite ways to spend a chilly winter night. We don't have a local NHL team but we do have a junior league team that is just as much fun. And hey, a fraction of the cost. So, grab some cozy clothes and go cheer for your local team on ice!
Imagine this, you're sitting by a little fire that you and your honey just built, snuggling up, roasting marshmallows, and sipping on some boozy hot chocolate. That's the winter date night dream! We like to set up a bonfire either in our own backyard, or go to a local park to use a firepit. To make it a little more grown up, you can use artisan marshmallows, homemade shortbread, and orange chocolate.
Last spring, Tom and I had a photoshoot with Belle Hiver Photography and it was blast! It made me realize how important having those images were. And, I can't wait to have a winter photoshoot with Tom.
Building a gingerbread house is an easy and sweet (see what I did there?) way to spend an afternoon together. Gather up your favorite sweets and build a cottage or Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece.
Just because it's icky outside doesn't mean you can't hop around between your favorite watering holes. Recently, Tom and I celebrated his birthday in Portland. We stayed in the Pearl District and spent an evening walking to different breweries to try them out. Yes, it was cold, yes I wore boots instead of heels, and yes, we brought raincoats. But, it was a blast, even if the weather didn't agree with us.
Want to know what one of the first things to go for me as soon as it gets cold and dark outside? My workout routine. I love working out outside, and when the weather makes that less than desirable, I tend to seriously slack in the fitness department. We all still have goals we want to reach though. So, one of my favorite ways to stay on track is making the time to workout together. You'll both feel better afterwards and be helping support each other's health.
Like, actual Netflix and actual chill. Is there anything better than a serious snuggle sesh while binge watching your favorite shows together and sharing a bowl of popcorn? I think not. And hey, if Netflix and chill leads to Netflix and chill then, more power to you.
One of my favorite things to do together is cook. We try to cook healthy meals at home, but, once again with such busy and hectic lives, that doesn't always work out as planned. This is why I love Sun Basket. It has lots of healthy, organic options that fit our lifestyle and make cooking dinner together fun and easy.
Board games and puzzles are some of our favorite casual date nights! Okay, I know you might be thinking, Jane you guys are lame. But, hear me out… it's so much fun! We have a blast playing board games and putting together puzzles. One of our favorite games is Morels, where you hunt for mushrooms. Yeah, I told you it was fun, I can see you're intrigued now. And, we recently put together this blast from the past nostalgic 1990's puzzle.
Living in the Pacific Northwest, there are so many great hikes, it would be a shame to only get to enjoy them in the summer months. So, any time we get a sunny day during the winter months, I make an effort to get out and go on a hike.
Who wouldn't love a little competitive night at the bowling alley?
There isn't much more that I love than a weekend getaway to the winter wonderland that is Leavenworth, Washington. If you live in driving distance to this picturesque little town, it's worth the trip. And heck, even if you aren't, it's still worth the trip. It's a beautiful little mountain town, with world class skiing, and more tasting rooms than you can shake a stick at. It's the first place I had Gluhwein, German spiced wine. You can get lost perusing shops, and eating at any number of amazing restaurants.
Tom and I just recently discovered making our own sushi. I can't even put into words how much I suggest this! It was such a fun night. The only special things you need are a sushi mat for rolling and a sharp knife. We made a shrimp, cucumber, avocado roll that was to die for! As well as a California roll.
What are some of your favorite winter date nights?
I love these ideas! It's really hard to do outdoor activities during the winter in Michigan. I'm loving these indoor date night ideas! Homemade fondue followed by games sound great right now!
Yes! Here too, it's not as cold here but oh soooo rainy. So, I'm all about the indoor winter dates too.
These are such awesome ideas! I never thought of doing a gingerbread house after Christmas, but this would be so perfect – get one half off 😉 I love the sushi and game night ideas, too!
That makes me all sorts of jealous! Enjoy that beautiful weather!
These are such fun ideas!!! 🙂 It's always nice to have alternative plans when it's just plain cold out haha.
Yes it sure is! That being said… I'm ready for some warmer weather!
Such a great list of Date Night Ideas! I love Date Nights. My favorites Bowling and Netflix Nights.
There isn't much better than a bowling and netflix night!
Oh gosh, these are all such great ideas!!!
Love all of these ideas! I love an evening of board games and a little wine thrown in there, too!
Heck yes! I like the way you think! Cheers!
I love all your ideas! I think we should try the build a gingerbread house. I love chilling with a great movie and board games!
I am such a sucker for movies and board games!
I love all of these ideas. Seriously, one of my favorite things to do with Nick is to get some Netflix and wine and snuggle on the couch. It's the little things. And now I am dying for a fondue night, that sounds so fun! I've never done one at home!
It is seriously SO much fun! You can get exactly what you want, and it's just a total blast.
Yes! It is such a blast! I love it!


The Quick Trail Restoration is the newest project at Alum Rock Park. The restoration is at the very top of the Quick Trail and has wonderful views of Santa Clara County, from the bay and Palo Alto ( on a clear day) to Morgan Hill. The area was chosen because of the very large populations of Poison Hemlock and the possibility that all that seed would, over time spread downhill over much more of the park. The area is downhill from OSA's Sierra Vista Open Space Preserve, so this area gets more moisture than much of the other south facing slopes. Now that most of the weeds are cleared, we're seeing natives like the narrow leaf milkweed popping up arround the rocks, where there is more moisture ( photo taken end of August 2015).
There is a much larger population of milkweed in Sierra Vista, and we look forward to more plants on "our side of the fence" now that they are not being shaded out.
We've planted a number of Buckeyes and Elderberrys in the area, and hopefully they'll do well here.

Welcome to my page! I am Ms. Finklea, the Talented Art teacher at Jefferson Upper Elementary. I am home-based at Jefferson Upper Elementary school, but I travel within the district to teach Talented Art at other elementary schools. This year, 2014-2015, is my first year of teaching. I am very excited to work with elementary students in the Talented Art program. It is a joy to teach the talented young artists, to foster their creativity, to enhance their critical thinking skills and hands-on learning, and to help them develop their artistic abilities.
All of the students in the Talented Art program have been tested and met the requirements and criteria for Talented Art. The screening process for taking the Talented Art test will begin in Late Winter/ Early Spring of 2015.
I am traveling to different schools throughout the week so the best way to contact me is through email or cell phone.

The Australian High Commissioner, Rod Brazier at the signing ceremony.
Australia would like to congratulate the Solomon Islands Government and Solomon Power for reaching a major milestone for the Tina River Hydro Power Project this week.
In the presence of the Prime Minister, the Hon Rick Houenipwela, key stakeholders, including the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance and Treasury, Manasseh Sogavare, and the Minister for Mines, Energy and Rural Electrification, Bradley Tovosia signed the key project agreements, officially moving the project from the preparation to the implementation phase.
At the signing ceremony, the Australian High Commissioner, Rod Brazier, said "the benefits of this project will extend well beyond more reliable, cheaper and cleaner electricity that the project will deliver.
The Australian Government has invested over AUD 10 million in support of the project's preparation phase, and remains committed to seeing the project through to completion.
To this end, Australia has committed an additional AUD 18.4 million to fund the construction of the access road to the dam site and power station. This brings Australia's total contribution to AUD 28.8 million – approximately SBD 165 million – making Australia the largest grant financier of the project.
Australia is a committed partner to the Solomon Islands, and economic growth is a key pillar of the Australian aid program.

Q: Should I store Bitmaps in SQLITE DB Is it a good idea to store images retrieved from the web server via a web service in SQLITE DB. I  am working on this android app that retrieves a lot of images from a web server and places them in a listview. And I would like to store the first 100 images in some storage area within an android device(That is after compressing them.) when a user first opens the app so that the app doesn't reload a fresh the next time the user opens the app . So, I am looking at SQLITE as one of my top storage options and I am not sure whether there could be a better way to doing this for the sake of improving the app performance. I have seen the question asked at Should i store images in SQLite database? and its answer, which a little fuzzy to me. Your opinion is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A: Depends on the size of images - If the returned result of your query is going to be more than 1 MB (the binder limit) then you would have to store them as files and only store the URIs in the dbs.
For example you can look at the Contacts Provider - the thumbnails are stored in the db but the full images are not - only URI of the full image is part of the contacts database.

A: The question you linked too explains the best practise.
Generally, you should store the actual image files in the filesystem or memory card of the device.
Then your app can find references to them in your database
e.g.
SELECT avatar_image FROM profile WHERE user_id = 1; would return the local device file path of your stored image that can then be loaded into your ImageView.

Maybe it was the recent sobering reminder of human mortality, or maybe it was the fact that my quad seems to be on the mend (most likely a combination of both), but yesterday's 12-miler was one of the best runs I've had in a while. I explored a new running route (through campus, down to Moores Pike to Rt. 446). It's not a route to do at night (so few are, sigh), but it's definitely a keeper. Moores Pike has a sidewalk for nearly the entire length between College Mall Road and 446. And then 446 has an extremely wide shoulder, very ideal for running. Reminds me a bit of running in Galesburg. I would like to explore further and see how far down I can go on 446 and keep that amazing shoulder to run on. Maybe I could park at Mark's work and run from there. Bloomington is a good place for running, but at times I miss the endless roads and flat expanses of fields and farmland in northwestern Illinois.
Also of note yesterday, I passed the 500-mile mark in total mileage for the year. I've never kept a running log for more than few months before, so it's interesting to me to see how many miles I actually run while training for a marathon. I really wish I knew how many miles I've run in my lifetime. Maybe when I get really bored I'll try to make a guesstimate.
I'm making a couple of changes to the old blog (again). I added one of those nifty ClustrMaps to see if anyone actually visits this place. I'm astounded to find out that there are people who do! I'm also adding a quote to my header that I think goes along with my blog title. Nitmos reminded me of it--it's one of those you always hear in high school when they bring those motivational speakers in to convince kids not to do drugs and to go to college. But I do really like it. More changes to come, quite possibly!
Yeah, the quote is kinda simplistic and corny but sometimes those are the best kind. And the easiest to remember.
Great job. Discovering new running routes are always fun, and they usually make for a good run.

Gilbert's popularity is booming. And it's no wonder: hip restaurants keep popping up in the revitalized downtown; nearby, the arts take center stage; outdoor adventure is so close; and families have loads of fun offerings.
Just east of Chandler and south of Mesa, Gilbert has surged from just an agricultural community on the outskirts of metro Phoenix into the place to be. It's easy to see why – ask a local what their favorite attraction is and they'll happily share a handful.
Step into the past at the Gilbert Historical Museum, which was originally built in 1913 to serve as Gilbert Elementary School. Nine exhibits share the town's history, within history itself – the museum is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
History and modern mesh well in Gilbert's Heritage District – nearly century-old buildings have been revitalized and transformed into a mecca for entertainment. A 1935 grocery store is now Liberty Market, just a stone's throw from other popular eateries including Postino East and Joe's Real BBQ.
Nearby, Hale Centre Theatre, the longest running, privately owned theater company in America, offers a full range of live theater performances. Art Intersection, also near the Heritage District, offers art and photography classes as well as exhibitions.
For all its urban offerings, Gilbert is also a paradise for the outdoors – both within Earth's atmosphere and out of it. Stargaze at the Gilbert Rotary Centennial Observatory, where a telescope makes it easy to see the moon, Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and the rings of Saturn.
Closer to the ground, the Riparian Preserve at a collection of man-made, recycled-water lakes provides valuable environments for migrating birds. Hundreds of species have been spotted here.
Little ones will adore Freestone Park, which offers a lake, baseball fields, basketball courts, playgrounds, a miniature train, a skate park, a carousel, a mini Ferris wheel, and waterless wave runners. Come to think of it, everyone will adore Freestone Park – and Gilbert!

UCLA scientists, in partnership with 30 research institutions across the country, have identified a new gene variant that is highly common in autistic children. And when researchers scrutinized the activity of the gene, known as CDH10, in the fetal brain, they discovered that it is most active in key regions that support language, speech and interpreting social behavior.
Published April 28 in the advance online edition of the journal Nature, the two findings suggest that CDH10 plays a critical role in shaping the developing brain and may contribute to a prenatal risk of autism.
"While this gene variant is common in the general population, we discovered that it occurs about 20 percent more often in children with autism," said study author Dr. Daniel Geschwind, director of the UCLA Center for Autism Treatment and Research. "A major change like this in the genetic code is too common to be a simple mutation - it is a risk factor in the origin of the disease."
Using the largest population sample to date, the scientists systematically scanned the DNA of 3,100 individuals from 780 families nationwide. Each family had at least two autistic children.
The scan connected autism to a specific region of chromosome 5, which previous studies at UCLA and collaborating institutions had pinpointed as a hub for genetic variations linked to higher autism risk.
To verify the findings, Dr. Hakon Hakonarson at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia led the team in conducting a second scan on the DNA of 1,200 individuals from families affected by autism, as well as nearly 6,500 healthy controls. All participants shared European ancestry.
The scientists evaluated the relationship of more than half a million gene variants to autism and consistently discovered six changes that occurred more frequently in autistic children than in the control group. These variants sat on chromosome 5 between two genes, CDH9 and CDH10.
In the second half of the study, the UCLA team looked at the two genes' presence in the developing human brain. While CDH9's presence appeared minimal, the scientists discovered that CDH10 was most active in the fetal brain's frontal cortex, a region critical to language, social behavior and complex thought processes such as judgment.
"This is a landmark finding," Geschwind said. "It's no coincidence that a gene linked to autism has a higher concentration in key brain regions that regulate speech and the ability to interpret social interaction. Our research suggests that CDH10 is switched on at a very early stage and plays an important role in regulating the developing brain. This prenatal activity somehow makes the infant more susceptible to autism."
By influencing the development of important brain structures, CDH10 provides a tangible link between genes, brain circuitry and a child's future behavior, Geschwind noted. The discovery also opens up a number of intriguing next steps for research, including the possibility of an imaging study to explore whether the gene behaves differently in the autistic brain.
The DNA samples and clinical data were provided by families who donated blood to the Los Angeles-based Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE), a program created and funded by Cure Autism Now, which merged with Autism Speaks in 2007.
Autism is a complex brain disorder that strikes in early childhood. The condition disrupts a child's ability to communicate and develop social relationships and is often accompanied by acute behavioral challenges. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that one in 150 American children is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder; the disorder affects four times as many boys as girls. The diagnosis of autism has expanded tenfold in the last decade.
The UCLA portion of the study was supported primarily with funding from the National Institute of Mental Health. Geschwind's UCLA colleagues included Brett Abrahams, Rita Cantor, Hongmei Dong, Edward Herman, Ted Hutman, Ana Alvarez Retuerto, Marian Sigman and Lisa Sonnenblick.
Additional co-authors included scientists from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, USC, Autism Speaks, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Miami, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, the University of Washington, the University of North Carolina, UC Davis, Yale University, the University of Illinois, the University of Utah, Indiana University, Vanderbilt University and the University of Pittsburgh.
The UCLA Center for Autism Research and Treatment provides diagnosis, family counseling and treatment for patients with autism. UCLA is one of eight centers in the National Institutes of Health-funded Studies to Advance Autism Research and Treatment network and one of 10 original Collaborative Programs for Excellence in Autism.

An experience that certainly belongs to one of the most romantic experiences you can have while honeymooning in Switzerland.
Valais is the stepping stone to the roof of the world. With backdrops like the unfathomable Matterhorn, the astounding 23km long Aletsch Glacier and a tapestry of perfectly manicured, lush vineyards in the Rhone Valley, how can a hike or ski tour in Valais be anything but spectacular? Valais boasts its fair share of beautiful mountain pastures, snow-capped peaks, pristine glaciers and arboreal forests, but it's also Switzerland's premier and biggest wine-making region. With a slow and enviable way of life thanks to no major cities except the quaint capital of Sion, the canton of Valais is well-known for its Mediterranean climate making it the perfect honeymooning destination in both winter and summer. Sion also offers amazing shopping experiences and top-class eateries boasting Gault Millau points. The superb wines of this region will not disappoint. A stay at a romantic alpine hotel in Valais will make your hearts beat faster while on honeymoon.
The Bernese Oberland, or Bernese Highlands, has a lot to brag about. It is one of those rare regions on Earth where you can enjoy jaw-dropping views from just about anywhere, whether it's on a gondola ride, chilling out by the lake, or hiking. Centrally located in the western part of Switzerland, this is the area of Switzerland you are most likely to see on postcards, given that it's home to the infamous trio of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfraujoch mountains. Honeymoon hotels in this canton of Switzerland put you right in the middle of spectacular alpine scenery, from craggy mountains and deep ravines to vast forests and green hilly farmscapes. Offering a combination of city charm and natural wonders, the Lake Thun region is the perfect starting point from which to explore the Bernese Oberland. At the west end, the medieval castle town of Thun offers a horde of activities. In addition, the mild climate in this region is ideal for all kinds of water sports like paragliding, boating, or white water rafting, or simply enjoying a coffee and a bite to eat at one of the many outdoor lakeside cafés.

Current: Tugela Falls
Tugela Falls
Kwazulu Natal, South Africa
Tugela Falls is a lofty but low volume waterfall which tumbles down the immense cliffs of a section of South Africa's Drakensberg Mountains known as The Amphitheater. The falls have been commonly said to drop in five distinct leaps, but in fact there may be as many as seven or eight, depending on how pronounced of a pause occurs between one or two sections of the fall. The total height of the falls is usually reported to be 948 meters (3,110 feet), with the the first two and most visible tiers of the falls making up a majority of the total drop in leaps of approximately 180 meters (590 feet) and 410 meters (1,345 feet). The third tier of the falls is the second largest in the series, but the exact height is not known. The remaining drops are neither visible from the viewpoints at the top of The Amphitheater where the falls are usually observed, nor from the valley below the falls where hikers begin the trek to the top of the falls. Because there has yet to be a truly accurate measurement of the falls, the height of Tugela Falls has often been cited with wildly different figures.
Because the remaining tiers of the falls are hidden in a difficult to access section of canyon at the foot of the cliffs, an accurate measurement of the true height of Tugela Falls has not yet been established. In 2016 an amateur team of explorers from the Czech Republic set out to measure Tugela Falls in hopes to prove it to be the world's tallest waterfall. Their measurement returned a height of 983 meters, however the location it was measured from was found to be over a kilometer distant from the base of Tugela Falls and thus not an accurate depiction of the height of just the waterfall itself. Despite this, it is extremely likely that Tugela Falls is still the tallest recorded waterfall in the world, as the measurement often attributed to Angel Falls is thought to have been taken nearly 2 kilometers away from the waterfall and is likewise not an accurate representation of the true height of Angel Falls as well.
The Tugela River is an exceedingly small stream where it produces Tugela Falls, draining from a tiny basin at the very top of the Drakensberg which covers an area of approximately 3 square kilometers, but as the basin is entirely above 3,000 meters in elevation, it does receive snow fall in the winter months and rain during the wet season. The falls rarely flow with much force due to the small drainage area, and it is typically entirely dry during the summer months (without precipitation).
Tugela Falls is the Official name of this waterfall.
Has also been known as:
Thukela Falls
Tugela is a phonetic spelling of the word "Thukela", meaning "sudden" or "startling". Indeed, this gentle stream makes a very abrupt leap off of a massive escarpment.
We've seen Tugela Falls variously listed between 1,800 feet (549m) and 3,110 feet (948m) depending on the source. Other height claims are 2,014 feet (614m), and 2,853 feet (870m). It is our theory that the two lower figures only refer to the first two drops. Photographs clearly show that the 3rd tier follows the 2nd tier just as closely as the 2nd tier follows the 1st tier. The three tiers together most likely account for the 2853 feet (870m) height figure. Since the 4th and 5th tiers are still more or less continuous, with no lengthy interstitial stretch of river between, we feel that the height figure of 3110' (948m) is wholly credible. At any height, this is a very tall waterfall.

Megan Young named as Miss World Philippines 2013
Megan Lynne Young finally joined a beauty pageant which was also her dream but delayed due to her career as an actress. Last August 18, 2013, Young excelled among the 24 candidates as the 23-year old lady from the city of Olongapo was crowned as Miss World Philippines 2013 and took home P1 million worth of management contract from the pageant organizer, plus gifts and services from the contest's sponsors.The prestigious event was held at the Solaire Resort and Casino in Pasay City.
Young, a local television personality started as one of the aspirant talent of the reality show of GMA 7 "Starstruck" but then later moved to ABS-CBN and got some hosting gigs and acting projects. Megan really wanted to be a beauty queen and when asked during the question and answer portion why she wanted to be crowned as the Miss World Philippines 2013, she said being Miss World is all about being "selfless," a virtue which, she has already committed herself to.
"If I become Miss World Philippines, I would pour my heart and my soul into helping others, which is what Miss World is [all about]: beauty and giving," Young added and told hosts Carla Abellana and KC Montero.
Palawan native Janicel Lubina placed second and was proclaimed First Princess which comes with a P150,000 prize money. Zahra Bianca Saldua from Las Piñas City, a Muslim woman, was crowned Second Princess and got P100,000. Nueva Ecija's Bianca Paz, who placed fourth in the pageant's maiden edition in 2011, landed in the same spot this year and was proclaimed Third Princess and took home P75,000. Rounding up the Top 5 is Omarie Linn Osuna, 20, from Olongapo City.
Young will try to bag for the Philippines its first victory in the 63rd Miss World pageant in Indonesia on Sept. 28, 2013.

For What Purpose Does Mr. Keen Rise?
""I love campaigning, but I love being a legislator," [House Majority Leader Jerry Keen (R - St. Simons Island)] said. "And I love living in Glynn County.
House Majority Leader Jerry Keen told those in attendance at the annual Brunswick-Golden Isles Chamber of Commerce Grits and Issues breakfast that he decided, after much thought, that mounting a gubernatorial campaign in 2010 "was not worth the price."
A good guess is that Keen didn't think it worth the risk to give up a safe seat and an influential post in the state House for a run for governor.

Introducing a lean, mean disco machine: Alison Goldfrapp of the U.K.-based disco-glam duo Goldfrapp
By Flare Staff April 17, 2006
Solid Goldfrapp
Introducing a lean, mean disco machine
Impressing Madonna can be next to impossible, but Alison Goldfrapp is getting to be a pro at it. As the phenom front woman of the U.K.-based disco-glam duo Goldfrapp, Alison first got the big M's attention when her group's debut album, Felt Mountain, hit the airwaves. The queen of pop was so impressed with Alison's highly stylized sound (a haute hodgepodge of T.Rex, Kylie and Björk) that Madge asked the troop to sound track her then-bomb/now-cult film Swept Away. The duo wisely declined and, instead, opted to work on their second album, Black Cherry, and their recently released third album, Supernature. The result? Madonna told Billboard that the sharp nouveau-disco sounds of Supernature made the disc her favourite in 2005. In the midst of all this hot hype, FLARE spoke to Alison on the future of 'Frapp.
What was the first record you ever bought?
"Chaka Khan's I'm Every Woman. She is a big woman with a big voice who is very confident. She represented this female power. I also looked up to Grace Jones."

The same type of theatrical glamour that disco produced is making a comeback in pop music today. Are you relieved?
"There was a bit of a lull—especially at the end of the '90s—for glam. At the time, if you wanted to be taken seriously you had to dress in all black and be a bit poo-faced and look like a serious musician. That's changed quite a lot. There are a few pop bands that are, at the moment, quite dramatic and stylized, which is a good thing. Bands such as Scissor Sisters and Franz Ferdinand are intelligent. Andre 3000 reminds me of what Prince might be doing if he were [current]."
So much of the music and fashion from the '70s seem to be a big influence for you. Why are you so connected to that era?
"I suppose the ambiguity of it all. I just thought there was something sinister and yet playful about what [glam rocker] Marc Bolan did. His sound and expression was so sexy. The '80s I don't feel good about at all. I think they were really boring—politically, socially and culturally. That was not my era."
Is there such a thing as good or bad taste in pop?
"You should have a good sense of yourself and what is boring or what isn't. Does bad taste inform good taste? Yeah. They both work together. Bad taste is having an overblown sense of yourself or the world. It's unimaginative to just put a bunch of designer clothes on and think that's special."
—Elio Iannacci

Two motorcyclists died in separate hit and run accidents Sunday, the Memphis Police Department said.
The first fatal accident was at Interstate 240 and Interstate 55 about 12:35 a.m.
Police said 52-year-old Dwayne Mcmahon of Snellville, Georgia, who was driving a Honda CBR was dead on arrival after the motorcycle was hit by a vehicle, which subsequently fled the scene.
Police were looking for a dark colored vehicle, possibly a Honda. The crash briefly shut down the interstate, police said.
About 3:30 a.m., police found Landy Tarrance Jr., 29, dead at the scene of an accident on Covington Pike north of Raleigh LaGrange.
Tarrance was killed when a Suzuki motorcycle was hit by a Ford F-150 truck. Police said the truck was occupied by two men, who fled on foot.
Police asked anyone with information about the accidents to call Crime Stoppers at (901) 528-CASH.

Ohm's acoustic law, sometimes called the acoustic phase law or simply Ohm's law, states that a musical sound is perceived by the ear as a set of a number of constituent pure harmonic tones.

The law was proposed by physicist Georg Ohm in 1843. Hermann von Helmholtz elaborated the law into what is often today known as Ohm's acoustic law, by adding that the quality of a tone depends solely on the number and relative strength of its partial simple tones, and not on their relative phases. Helmholtz championed the law in opposition to contrary evidence expounded by August Seebeck.

The law has also been interpreted as "a pitch corresponding to a certain frequency can only be heard if the acoustical wave contains power at that frequency."

These laws are true to the extent that the ear is sensitive to the frequency and amplitude of the acoustic waves, and further, is able to resolve the differences in their frequency. In modern times, the sensitivity of human hearing to the phase of tone components has been extensively investigated. Controversy has led to this characterization:

The true spirit of sportsmanship is appreciation of the game itself. The game must not be a means of national or group superiority. In the English soccer, the teams were generally representative of a particular town. Soccer originally did not have a strong tradition of sportsmanship; it was the sport of the masses. So the crowd of spectators was divided into two parties; each would applaud a goal by their own side but would be silent when the other side scored.
But in a cricket match, the spectators—though supporting one side—would applaud a skilful stroke by one of the opposing batsmen. The true sportsman could appreciate an opponent's skill as well as his own. He could rise above mere partisanship and view the game from above, as it were. This ability to rise above the immediate situation was one of the most valuable assets given by sport. Of course, the sportsman tries to win and tries very hard. But he is independent of winning or losing. He is not overly elated when he wins; he is not depressed when he loses. This attitude, if it is cultivated, gives him a calm independence even in the most dangerous situations in life.
We can say that this sporting attitude came to be appreciated in amateur soccer also, but not by the spectators at professional matches. There the sport has become an entertainment, mixed up with a sort of tribal hatred of the supporters of the other teams. The same has come to be true of some other sports: in the Olympics it is clear that for many of the teams the only thing that matters is victory— getting medals for their own country.
As cricket has become international, the behaviour of spectators shows that they do not understand the purpose of sport at all. They want their side to win; if disappointed, they invade the pitch and even attack the players. It must be said that the behaviour of Japanese spectators is in general much better than that of the Western 'football hooligans', among whom the British are some of the worst.
But, as a matter of fact, the whole business of making sport into an entertainment is a big loss. It becomes like horse racing. The spectators at a horse race do not themselves run; they just watch and bet. In 'entertainment sport', the spectators may never have played the game at all. They identify themselves with the players, but they do not themselves play. They get nothing out of it as a training for life.
The 'entertainment players' or 'national representative players' also get nothing out of the sport. They have no idea of self-control; they cannot rise above elation if they win, or depression if they lose. A good tennis player, even a champion, is just a tennis player; he may be no good at life at all. Today, his sport gives him no inner training except concentration and skill with a racket.
Against this, a good sportsman, though his technical skill may be not high, learns an inner balance that enables him to face the changes of life without inner disturbance. He does not get confused in a crisis: he can meet unexpected bad luck, or good luck, with the same calm smile and cool judgement. This is the true meaning of sport, not breaking world records in front of a passive audience who never takes part in sport themselves.

BOXING SCOTLAND
Boxing Scotland looked to Beattie for a knockout campaign in the crucial build-up to the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games that would serve to cement its growing media profile as a true sporting heavyweight and turn its many burgeoning stars into household names.
Beattie delivered hard-hitting results that championed key group successes by harnessing the power of traditional and digital media channels, in turn bolstering Boxing Scotland's reputation as a consistent developer of internationally recognised talent. We masterminded an exciting social media campaign that drove ticket sales, energised Boxing Scotland's expanding audience, and helped to make national stars of gold medal winners Charlie Flynn, Josh Taylor, and more. In-depth profiling work aimed to ensure that its collective voice was catapulted to the forefront of the news agenda for the duration of the 2014 Games and that momentum was retained way beyond.
Beattie weighed in with consistently strong national coverage that highlighted Boxing Scotland's globally-recognised medal successes and key emerging talents, while transforming it into a commanding sporting presence in the media. We also helped its equal opportunities campaign pack a real punch by engaging in meaningful, thought-provoking debate, stimulated wide interest in its fresh push for male and female honours in the run-up to the 2018 Gold Coast Games, and formulated an engaging long-term strategy that aimed to harness public and private sector stakeholders, securing the long-term future of the sport and its huge growth ambitions.

So you don't have to buy that city guide book at the airport.
Transportation: how can I get to town from the airport?
Hotels: if we didn't already have one, which ones are good for us?
To Do: I'm in the old town and have one day. What should I do if I'm the sort of person who likes this, that and the other. Maybe the app even "knows" me by now and has a good idea of what I'd like.
Shopping: where to buy what.
Food: restaurants near me, cheapy ones, splurgy ones, rooftop ones.
Mini Guides: what if we only have 3 days? What if were without kids this trip? What if I love industrial museums?
I don't know what it needs, I don't write city guide books (oh wait, actually, I did). But isn't this exactly what apps are all about?
Editor's note: I'm writing this post here in Istanbul and we'll probably go buy a paper guidebook in the morning. Partly because I don't have any better ideas? I'm a little rusty on traveling to places that I know absolutely nothing about. So I'm going to publish this post without any actual, uh, you know, helpful ideas. But more that I see a need and I can rest assured that there's something out there that would be great for me, I just need to find it.
So here they are, the top 5 city (or maybe country or whatever) guide apps.
This will be updated as, well, I update it.
