Q: Most effective index for BIGINT column which is only ever filtered/queried by positive/negative sign? I inherited a very large and active PostgreSQL table with a BIGINT column containing scalar measurements for samples like so:
CREATE TABLE sample (
    id       SERIAL    PRIMARY KEY,
    name     TEXT      NOT NULL,

    ...
);

CREATE TABLE measurement (
    id       SERIAL    PRIMARY KEY,
    sampleid INTEGER   NOT NULL,
    value    BIGINT    NOT NULL,
    created  TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME ZONE DEFAULT NOW(),

    ...

    FOREIGN KEY (sampleid) REFERENCES sample (id)
);

CREATE INDEX ix_measurement_created ON measurement (created);

Users query samples first based on whether measurement.value is greater than zero and then on additional criteria.  These queries were originally painfully slow.
Adding CREATE INDEX ix_measurement_value ON measurement (value); improved performance almost tenfold.
I should have been happy with this result but I can't help but feel that this is not the most efficient solution.  In practice the actual values stored in the column are irrelevant as 99% of requests are:

*

*...always scoped first for value > 0 or value <= 0.

*...never looking for values within specific ranges.

*...never looking for specific values.

Would either of the following be more effective?

*

*A single index expression for:

*

*CREATE INDEX ix_measurement_pos ON measurement (value > 0);

*Separate index expressions for

*

*CREATE INDEX ix_measurement_pos ON measurement (value > 0);

*CREATE INDEX ix_measurement_neg ON measurement (value <= 0);
I'm not sure how to simulate the production environment's stats/load well enough to evaluate the approaches on my own (advice on that would be appreciated as well!).
Edit: I forgot to mention that the queries are being generated/issued by an ORM which I have no control over - the above sample / measurement join is just one part of a very large and terrible thing.
Edit #2: This is a PostgreSQL 9.3 database that cannot be upgraded beyond 9.4, per vendor requirements.
Edit #3: A partial index was suggested, but because the queries are ORM generated it's difficult to determine which columns a partial-index should contain ...unless someone has advice on that!

A: Without seeing a specific query whose performance you're concerned about, it is difficult to address:

Would [these specific indexes] be more effective? […] I'm not sure how to simulate the production environment's stats/load well enough to evaluate the approaches on my own (advice on that would be appreciated as well!).

This seems to be the crux of the issue.
To evaluate what will help specific queries, you want to get the execution plan by using EXPLAIN on that specific query.
If you're trying to understand the inner workings of:
SELECT count(sampleid)
FROM measure
WHERE value > 0
;

you use the EXPLAIN statement, specifying what behaviours should be in the output. For example:
EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS, COSTS)
SELECT count(sampleid)
FROM measure
WHERE value > 0
;

With the output from that (maybe use other options for the output, if you're concerned about other aspects of performance), you can then seek to make an index addressing some specific part of the execution of the query.
Then, to verify whether your index has improved what you want, you need some test runner that will hammer the server with queries, before and after your proposed change. That will give you a performance benchmark for comparing before and after the change.


Can't see Corbyn agreeing to anything that doesn't include going to a second referendum.
I've been wondering that pretty much all my life!
If leaving with no deal has been ruled out completely, what happens on April 12th?
I'm sure they could, but how on earth is there ever going to be a leaver government?
Thought that was a new one, but it's one I signed ages ago, so it won't let me sign again.
If May cannot get a deal through the house, because it's too hard for some, and too soft for others, then how is someone else going to get a harder deal through, given that the majority of MPs are for remain?
Looks more like they'll just keep extending it, forever.
£159 a month for me. Think it was £151 last year.
Same here, but sadly there is zero chance of those being the options.
Sensible short term accommodation in London suggestions?
I've stayed in the Euston Premier Inn, and also the Leicester sq one. Both fine, though obviously the Leicester sq one is is, let's call it livelier, immediately outside, at night! Usually we stay at the Radisson blu at Bloomsbury St, very near the British museum. Great location, not too far from tube at Tottenham Court. We usually are only there for one night though, and there's only two of us, so in your case, a lot more money.
Nearly 30 years since I lived in a house that had gas.
Does anyone here think she won't be allowed back at some stage?


as the focal point of a fabulous boho chic rock-and-roll gypsy look.
So perfect to create the look for the party she was heading to!
where she designed and offered a full range of gorgeous ethical eco apparel.
Do you love this gypsy rocker style?
Which accessories are your favorites?


Born Francis Dayle Hearn, in Aurora, Illinois, legendary Lakers announcer Chick Hearn broadcast a record 3,338 consecutive games during his 42 year career. His streak of consecutive games began in 1965 and only ended when he needed surgery in 2001. Hearn Joined the Lakers in 1961 when the franchise moved from Minneapolis to Los Angeles, and continued in his roll as the team's play-by-play announcer until his death in 2002. While behind the microphone, Hearn made expression like "Slam Dunk" and "Air Ball" common basketball terminology. He was also known for saying "You can put this one in the refrigerator. The door's closed, the lights out, the eggs are cooling, the butter's getting hard and the Jell-O is jiggling" when he believed a Lakers victory was clinched. During his outstanding career Hearn received many honors including being named California Sportscaster of the Year nine times, receiving the Cable Ace Award for play-by-play, and winning a Golden Mike Award. He also has his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In recognition of his outstanding career as a sportscaster, Hearn was inducted into the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Hall of Fame on April 28, 1997.

These brownies are my absolute favorite. Keto can be tough when you're having a chocolate craving, but these brownies are a great treat to help you combat a sugar craving. It can be hard to find good keto-baking recipes, but this one is solid. They are dense and taste so good!
Jazz them up with a quarter cup peanut butter into the sour cream and you're in for even more of a treat! The secret here is to not get hasty with whipping up the eggs. There are no leavening agents, so your only volume is coming from the whipped eggs. Take your time with this recipe and you'll be glad you did!
Grease and flour (with coconut flour) an 8x4 loaf pan.
Combine cocoa powder, coconut flour, and salt, and set aside.
Add Swerve, eggs, vanilla and mix with a stand mixer. Mix until the volume of the mixture has tripled in size. This should take about 3-5 minutes on high. This step is important. The fluffier this mixture, the fluffier the brownie.

October 2012 Oregon concert recap
12th Nov 12 (Mon) 1 comment
I feel so bad for not blogging as much this past month or so… busy at work and in real life. I have still gone to quite a bit of shows, especially in October – Aimee Mann, Nellie McKay twice, Peter Mulvey & Kris Delmhorst three times, and Dan Deacon, I snapped a few iPhone shots (sorry for lower quality). I tracked most of the setlists, too. So, here's a quick run-down.
Aimee Mann @ the Aladdin Theater, Portland, Oregon (Tu 10/2)
Aimee Mann put on a great show, a good mix of old tunes and ones from her brand new album, Charmer. Here's what she played – 10/2 setlist. This was my second time seeing her, and I was not disappointed. She's charming, smiles much more than her songs lead on, and is quite the jokester.
Nellie McKay @ the Shedd, Eugene, Oregon (Wed 10/10)
Nellie McKay @ the Alberta Rose Theatre, Portland, Oregon (Th 10/11)
Two shows, back-to-back seems to be a habit for me when Nellie McKay swings through Oregon. The shows were fairly similar (Eugene setlist / Portland setlist) save for a few changes in songs. Both shows were great. She seemed for relaxed and vocally on-point in Eugene. In Portland, she had a few lyrical miss-steps, but she was as charming as ever. Any time she comes through, I'm excited to see her. No news on another album, yet (her last was 2010's Home Sweet Mobile Home).
Peter Mulvey & Kris Delmhorst @ the Majestic Theatre, Corvallis, Oregon (Wed 10/17)
Peter Mulvey & Kris Delmhorst @ the Alberta Rose Theatre, Portland, Oregon (Th 10/18)
Peter Mulvey & Kris Delmhorst @ Tsunami Books, Eugene, Oregon (Fri 10/19)
Three shows, not one the same. Another artist I see every time he comes through, Peter Mulvey, brought his long-time musical friend Kris Delmhorst (wife of another singer-songwriter Jeffrey Foucault). The three of them are in a band Redbird with guitarist David Goodrich. Well, this Fall 2012 west coast jaunt was just Peter & Kris, doing a switch-off storyteller-type show. All of the shows were two sets, split with a short intermission. Peter changed up his set fairly well, and Kris mixed hers up some as well (Corvallis setlist / Portland setlist / Eugene setlist). I only had a few of her albums before this tour, but at the final show, I had to rectify that and pick up the rest of the catalog. It seemed based on their new material and various discussions that they were both working on new albums… for 2013?
Dan Deacon @ Hawthorne Theatre, Portland, Oregon (Th 10/25)
The openers were also odd (TEDtalk-styled humor from Alan Resnick), bombastic (two-piece rock powerhouse Chester Endersby), and truly enlightening (rock/rap from Height with Friends). For Dan Deacon's set, he played a lot from his latest album, America. This show was intense and amazing. He has an amazing way of getting people to step out of their shells. At one point, Dan was going to have us do a arm tunnel outside the venue (something he does at most of his shows). The bouncer and club management wouldn't let him… so he complied and said," we'll just do something far more dangerous." With a wide circle, he started with one guy running around, and with every revolution, he would bring one more person in to run around… 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, … after a very short time the entire audience was running in a circle… I had to pull myself out of it and grab some water… It was a very sweaty, dancey, fun-as-hell show. Truly inspiring how the seeming group of outcasts becomes a group of like-minded lovers of life.
I'll try to do a better job of consistent concert reviews going forward, time permitting. A couple shows for me this week: The Dead Kenny G's (Skerik, Matt Dillon etc) on 11/15 @ Sam Bond's Garage (Eugene) and Over the Rhine on 11/17 @ the Triple Door (Seattle).

'Downtown Express' (film) with Nellie McKay & Philippe Quint
4th Apr 12 (Wed) Leave a comment
Downtown Express is a new film by David Grubin. Check out the trailer below:
Set in the world of Russian immigrants living in New York City, Downtown Express uses music to explore the clash of old world values against the lure and excitement of a new country. Under the watch of his loving but overbearing father, virtuoso violinist and Juilliard student Sasha (Grammy nominee Philippe Quint) prepares for a critical recital meant to launch his career.
Yet, he is increasingly drawn to the rhythms of the streets of New York, and when he meets singer-songwriter Ramona (acclaimed recording artist Nellie McKay), he joins her band, falls in love, and begins to lead a double life, careening frantically between two worlds. As his classical debut nears, Sasha must decide whether or not to break with his father, forging his own destiny.
And, per the film's webpage…
[Nellie McKay's] fifth album is due this September.
Downtown Express opens April 20th 2012 at the Quad Cinema in New York City.

new music from Nellie McKay & My Brightest Diamond
22nd Mar 12 (Thu) Leave a comment
Jazzy, piano-pop songstress Nellie McKay just got done with a stint of tour dates for her death-row musical review I Want To Live! (double Oregon show review here).
Now she's off with a new show entitled SILENT SPRING – It's Not Nice to Fool Mother Nature, a tribute to trailblazing environmentalist, Rachel Carson (Nellie made up as Rachel to the right).
She is currently amidst her Silent Spring residency at Feinstein's in NYC. The show runs March 20 to 31, 2012. No word on if Silent Spring will make it out of NYC for a tour, but this seems similar to the path that I Want To Live! took… so, who knows, maybe we'll see Silent Spring out West in late 2012/early 2013?
Listen to Nellie's version of the song "Rio de Lua (Moon River)" below:
Shara Worden / My Brightest Diamond has recorded a guitar-based version of "I Have Never Loved Someone" for a limited release (1000 hand-numbered copies) as a 7″ through Holland-based Nowhere Fast Records. For the B-side, Shara has sung Leonard Cohen's "Bird On A Wire" with guitar accompaniment by Marc Ribot. The album is set for release on Record Store Day (21 April 2012), and it will be available in Europe, the UK and the US markets.

REVIEW: Nellie McKay's 'I Want To Live!' in Oregon @ the Shedd & Alberta Rose Theatre (Eugene 3/2/12 & Portland 3/4/12)
6th Mar 12 (Tue) 2 comments
FYI… PHOTOS of the SHOWs at the BOTTOM
I've seen Nellie McKay quite a bit since moving to Oregon. She plays two-week residencies in New York on occasion (lucky!!), but she rarely hit the Midwest when I lived there. Now that I'm here in the Northwest, I'm glad that she tried to swing by at least annually. This time was for her new project, yet to be released officially in any form… I Want To Live! – a story of Barbara Graham, the third woman to be executed in the State of California (via the gas chamber at San Quentin). It's loosely based on the 1958 film of the same name.
This death row theme shouldn't be a shock for fans of McKay. She's never been afraid to push boundaries – hitting political hot-button issues right out of the gate with her debut album, Get Away From Me ("Sari," "It's a Pose," "Won't U Please B Nice," et cetera), and some of her non-jazz-standard followups Pretty Little Head ("Cupcake" and "The Big One") and Obligatory Villagers ("Mother of Pearl").
In person, though, she's as lovable and jovial as some of her adorable, campy press photos suggest. She's also a great thinker, great interpreter of classics & standards, and a great artist in her own right. She may have been "born in the wrong era" (her words), but she's doing the best with her love of the classics by making a great mark and not giving in to the current trends in what a jazz/pop "woman and a piano" should sound or act.
The first hour of the I Want To Live! tour makes up the story of a woman who falls in with the wrong people, gets caught up in a crime, and – whether innocent or not – is found guilty of murder. Nellie plays all of the emotions perfectly. Love, mystery, joy, pain, frustration – all while weaving in standards and her own tunes to tell Barbara Graham's story. While she hints at Graham's fervor for being innocent, Nellie leaves her opinion about guilt or innocence out of the musical. She also leaves her opinion of the death penalty out of it, which – quite honestly – was shocking that she didn't add some of her thoughts on it, specifically due to her past as being very politically opinionated. Perhaps that will show up in the liner notes if this gets released as an CD or DVD some day…

Two wonderfully entertaining nights in Oregon. Nellie and her band are excellent performers and entertainers. Through wardrobe changes, police chases, drug addiction, and working in different musical genres – the band was on point. At one point, the saxophonist mimics a crying baby simply with his mouth as the instrument, and it drives you mad how amazing he pulls it off without a talkbox or effects.

Nellie McKay in Oregon *this* weekend
29th Feb 12 (Wed) Leave a comment
Nellie McKay plays the Shedd in Eugene on Friday, March 2nd and the Alberta Rose Theatre in Portland on Sunday, March 4th. Tickets are still available for both Oregon shows… so, get on it. You won't be disappointed! I'll have a review with setlists and photos of both shows posted early next week (likely by Tuesday).
I Want to Live! a musical death row revue, conjures the life story of "a woman of dubious moral standards often a guest in seedy bars."
New York Times' Stephen Holden writes, "Inspired by the 1958 movie of the same name, I Want to Live! combines Nellie McKay's virtually unlimited gifts as a singer, songwriter, actress, pianist, ukulele player, mimic, satirist and comedian into a show that is much deeper than its surface might suggest. In the most lighthearted way they evoke a heartless environment of social injustice in which people who fall through the cracks are invisible to everyone else."
"Pretty darned unique," adds Michael Musto of the Village Voice.
"The McKay voice is a knife edged with honey. Which is good, because the words she writes are razor sharp beneath a homespun mantle." – Tony Gieske
It's a rare treat to have Nellie in our neck of the woods; so I'll be at both the Eugene and Portland shows. :)

* Favorite Vocal Albums of 2010 *
29th Dec 10 (Wed) 7 comments
Disclaimer: No, I haven't heard all 8,000+albums released this year. I've heard about 120 of them, which makes me at least 98.5% likely to be wrong. I make no claims to objectivity. These albums are my favorites from 2010. You might think that the one you've heard that I haven't heard is the best album of 2010. And you might be right. And, I while I generally agree with John Roderick about Year-End Lists, I still find it quite fun to compile my own.
I've been buying less music… or, at least a lot less mainstream (major label) music. This is also my third year now that I bought more instrumental CDs than vocal CDs. I think as I get older, I am drawn more towards jazz and other instrumental forms of expression. For that reason, the favorite vocal albums list goes first this go 'round. Hopefully my spilling out of music that I like finds interest with someone else. But if not, thanks for stopping by… check out the artists' webpages, SpaceBook & MyFace pages, yadda yadda yadda. A lot of these also made it on to my 2010 Mix CD.
OK, now on to the best of what's hit my ears this year…
Honorable Mentions: Finger Eleven's Life Turns Electric, Gnashing of Teeth's Walking the Appian Way, Kaki King's Junior, Kim Taylor's Little Miracle (out late Dec '09 digitally), and That1Guy & the Magic Pipe's Packs A Wallop!…
The Weepies – Be My Thrill (Nettwerk) :: Lush singer-songwriter husband/wife duo from Northern California. Syrup-y sweet & poppy, but regardless of my penchant normally against those types of things – The Weepies do it up right. A superb piece of well-crafted pop.
Chali 2Na – Fish Market Part 2 (Decon) :: Another great solo outing from my favorite rapper from Jurassic 5. This is Chali's 3rd solo album, and while the sound and vibe hasn't changed much – his consistency is most what I like about him. Hard hitting, booming voice, witting lyricism, and generally moving into more positive territory (he's not a "bitches and hoes"-type of rapper).
Caedmon's Call – Raising the Dead (INO) :: I've been a fan of Caedmon's Call for going on fifteen years. I've stuck with them through some (personal opinion) lackluster lyricism after the departure of my favorite Caedmon's songwriter – Derek Webb. He came back to produce and be in the band for this one; and quite frankly, I think this is their best record since 40 Acres. Lyrically, it still has a religious bent; but being in a minority of "non-Christian Caedmon's Call fans," I still didn't find it cringe-worthy like most "contemporary Christian music."
Redbird – Live at Café Carpe (Signature Sounds) :: Peter Mulvey, Jeffrey Foucault, Kris Delmhorst and David "Goody" Goodrich put out a great studio album of covers and originals in 2003. At the recent Mulvey/Foucault live shows this fall, they announced this new release. This new release is the live equivalent of the debut seven years ago (but different material) – a great mix of covers of people that influenced them, as well as a few of their own originals. Vocal duties split between Mulvey, Foucault & Delmhorst. I hope they are able to tour behind this in 2011.
Ty Tabor – Something's Coming (Molken) :: I'm a big fan of King's X. As a trio, they put out a wall of sound, and a big component of their brilliance is Ty Tabor's stellar guitar-work. His solo work also features his Beatles-esque vocals on top of his southern-grungy-rock sound. 2010 also saw the release of Ty's Trip Magnet side solo project, Jelly Jam's Additives bonus material, and the studio time with Jelly Jam (with John Myung & Rod Morgenstein) for their upcoming 3rd record. Whew, he's been busy.
Ben Folds & Nick Hornby – Lonely Avenue (Nonesuch) :: I'm ambivalent about Ben Folds. I never know if I'll like it; so I put off getting it. Then I get it and love it. This record was a collaboration between Ben and author Nick Hornby (High Fidelity, etc). The lyrics are a little jumpier to me (Nick's style versus Ben's style), but it still feels very much like a Ben Folds record. They also feature a bonus song (iTunes version) with "video song" heroes Pomplamoose.
Jeanne Cherhal – Charade (Barclay FR) :: I first heard Jeanne Cherhal when we picked up her second album (Douze fois par an) when in Toulouse, France, for my MBA program in 2004. Only available in France, I've managed to get her albums via Amazon.fr (good thing the buttons are in roughly the same spot). I still don't know what she's saying, but I dig her style.
S (Jenn Ghetto) – I'm Not As Good At It As You (Own Records) :: Carissa's Wierd [sic] front woman promised this 3rd 'S' record back in… oh, 2007?? It was worth the wait. Haunting lyrics and vocals, simple yet complex acoustic guitar (that hearkens back to Elliott Smith). Bright emo and depressing pop music. Carissa's Wierd also put out a retrospective (with a couple new tunes) and a small handful of West coast dates. Who knows – maybe they'll get active again in the near future? I could dig it…
Greydon Square – The Kardashev Scale (self) :: A little more mature in lyricism compared to The CPT Theorem. Perhaps it's due to putting some of the 'Rational Response Squad' fighting behind him. Greydon, the foremost atheist rapper, made his 3rd record into what I think to be his most consistent. It's solid, smart and superlative-worthy.
Damien Jurado – Saint Bartlett (Secretly Canadian) :: I got into Damien Jurado via the Seattle-based melancholy, indie singer-songwriter scene (i.e.- Pedro the Lion / David Bazan). While similar in general geography and friendship, Damien strikes me as more of a pure "songwriter" when compared to David's social critique set to music. Saint Bartlett fits well into Damien's oeuvre. At a show this past February (6 months before the album came out), I hardly knew any of the songs but felt as though I did. That's a testament to his craft.
Clogs – The Creatures in the Garden of Lady Walton (Brassland) :: I first saw Clogs at MusicNow 2007 (in Cincinnati). Padma Newsome and Bryce Dessner (of The National) know how to make some interesting chamber pop. The album (as with the live premiere in 2007) features Sufjan Stevens and Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond). It's quite a lush record – as the title suggests.
Sufjan Stevens – All Delighted People (Asthmatic Kitty) :: Two albums in 2010, Sufjan's 50+ minute "EP" hit us first. Beautiful and haunting in "The Owl and the Tanager" and primarily experimental and adventurous throughout, especially compared to his older material. Originally only released online via bandcamp, the EP saw physical form (CD & vinyl) earlier this month. I'm bummed Sufjan nixed future "State" albums, but I'm still glad with his 2010 output.
George Hrab – Trebuchet (self) :: George Hrab creates one of my favorite podcasts ever… the Geologic Podcast. It's not about geology. It's about science, skepticism, and his general life as a musician from Bethlehem, PA. He is both humorous and intelligent, and he puts out great albums as well. Trebuchet is his 6th studio album, and it features some great instrumental songs as well as some witty numbers fitting his skeptical, atheistic viewpoint. One of my favorite songs on it is "A Small Comfort," which is about the death of his dog Oscar. I also give George some kudos for kicking off his album with the Christopher Hitchens' inspired "God Is Not Great" (an atheist pop song). Bravo!
Damien & Drake Jurado – Hoquiam (St. Ives) :: Short and sweet and beautiful. My only gripe with this record… well, it wasn't made available on CD, and the vinyl didn't include a free download code for the mp3's. Industry standard practice aside, the Jurado brothers put out some fantastic music. I borrowed a vinyl-to-mp3 device from my friend; so I could enjoy it on my iPod as well. So, my gripes have been abated.
Ellery – This Isn't Over Yet (Set Adrift) :: Ellery is one of my favorite things in Cincinnati… I miss being able to see them multiple times a year (sad face). Husband/wife duo of Justin & Tasha Golden craft singer-songwriter pop songs… usually layered nicely on their albums with the help of producer, knob-twiddler Ric Hordinski (of Over the Rhine fame). This album, they switched it up with Malcolm Burn at the helm (Daniel Lanois / Bob Dylan / Iggy Pop / Kaki King / Emmylou Harris / etc).
Nellie McKay – Home Sweet Mobile Home (Verve) :: Nellie McKay's move to Verve (instead of Sony) has been good for her. They seem to give her free reign to put out Doris Day cover albums one year and an album of originals the next. HSMH is a return to the quirky, diverse collection of songs that drove me to fall in love with her. The album is full of Nellie's modern piano jazz-pop, ukulele ditties, and even a pro-animal reggae tune. The album has grown on me nicely, and I'm looking forward to more Nellie in the near future. She seems to be in a period of prolificity as of late. This is greatly welcomed.
Jónsi – Go (XL) :: Sigur Rós-frontman's debut solo album was going to be an acoustic affair, and then it turned into a lushly produced, Rós-ian opus with a multimedia firestorm of a tour (two U.S. legs with stunning stage design by 59 Productions). Jónsi is superbly brilliant and and ambivalently hyper-sensitively shy individual (ex. his abrupt cancellation of in-store performance tour) and boisterous-acting performer (ex. his magnificent stageshow). This album makes me excited for more solo work in the future, but I hope his day job with Sigur Rós is not on hold for too much longer.
Sarah Kirkland Snider & Shara Worden – Penelope (New Amsterdam) :: Chamber pop featuring Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond) is a theme this year (see #10). Quite frankly, I think Shara Worden has one of the best voices in indie rock. Period. Sarah Kirkland Snider is a new musical force for me… she originally wrote Penelope as music for a theater piece and then debuted it as a song cycle with Signal in May 2009. When Shara came aboard, Sarah revised and expanded the songs yet again, tailoring them to Shara's talents and arranging them for a 25-person orchestra of strings, harp, percussion, drums, electric guitar and bass, and electronics (with sound design by Michael Hammond). It is gorgeous.
Sufjan Stevens – The Age of Adz (Asthmatic Kitty) :: His second album of the year, The Age of Adz is a odd musical assembly. At first I didn't know what to think of it, then I started to like it, and then after seeing him live – I truly loved the album. For those previously familiar with Sufjan, this album may not fit easily in with his prior albums – but I think if you have an open mind and a desire to explore, you may very well fall in love with this record as well.
Mike Patton – Mondo Cane (Ipecac) :: Mike Patton of Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Fantômas, et cetera is known for more boisterous, left of center fare. With Mondo Cane, he classes up the joint that is Ipecac Records. Mondo Cane, named after the film, is Mike's homage to 50s Italian pop songs. He croons some classic Italian songs with the backing of the Orchestra Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini conducted by Aldo Sisillo. The artwork, in both CD digipack and vinyl, is stupendous. This is a magnificent record – both aurally and visually.
Top 20 instrumental albums coming up later this week…

Favorite Concerts of 2010
23rd Dec 10 (Thu) 7 comments
Well, this year's concert seasons were especially good to me… 365 days, 79 shows, 149 artists, many long nights driving home, and a lot of photos…
My favorite concerts of 2010:
Sufjan Stevens :: Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall :: Portland, OR {29 Oct} [review with photos] – completely stunning show
Toad the Wet Sprocket :: Crystal Ballroom :: Portland, OR {28 Jul} [review with photos] – I am a slave to Glen & Co's alt-pop
Jon Þor "Jónsi" Birgisson (of Sigur Rós) :: Roseland Theater :: Portland, OR {13 Apr} [review with photos] – stupendous stage show
Nellie McKay :: Berbati's Pan :: Portland, OR {31 Mar} [review with photos] – missed her Eugene show while at Sufjan, I heard that show was also "the bomb"
Dream Theater :: Roseland Theater :: Portland, OR {21 Jun} [review with photos] – made more special after Mike Portnoy left the band this fall
Tegan and Sara :: Keller Auditorium :: Portland, OR {8 Apr} [review with photos] – first time seeing them, not too be missed
Holy Fuck (twice) :: Mississippi Studios & Holocene :: Portland, OR {6 Jun & 14 Oct} [reviews with photos #1 & #2] – one of the most consistently great live acts, Holocene show was better, but Mississippi was also rad…
Dweezil Zappa Plays Zappa :: McDonald Theatre :: Eugene, OR {12 Jun} [review with photos] – keeping the FZ torch alive!
Dave Douglas' Brass Ecstasy :: PDX Jazz Fest / Crystal Ballroom :: Portland, OR {28 Feb} [review with photos] – honestly, all of these Top 15 could be #1 in a slow concert year
Over the Rhine (twice) :: WOW Hall & Aladdin Theater :: Eugene & Portland, OR {15 & 17 Nov} [reviews with photos #1 & #2] – twice after three years of OTR drought for me
Charlie Hunter Trio (twice) :: WOW Hall & Sam Bond's Garage :: Eugene, OR {18 May & 16 Dec} [reviews with photos #1 & #2] – Charlie has a pact with the devil… he's too good…
Peter Mulvey & Jeffrey Foucault (twice) :: The Woods & Sam Bond's Garage :: Portland & Eugene, OR {22 & 24 Oct} [reviews with photos #1 & #2] – both brilliant storytellers before VH1 made it a show
Susan Enan :: House Show :: Eugene, OR {15 Jul} [review with photos] – at our house… super fun & intimate
Damien Jurado :: Mississippi Studios :: Portland, OR {27 Feb} [review] – I didn't know more than half of the songs, but it didn't matter
Medeski Martin & Wood :: McDonald Theatre :: Eugene, OR {25 Feb} [review with photos] – jazz dance party!
Runners-Up: Bill Frisell Trio at The John G. Shedd Institute for the Arts, Fishtank Ensemble at a Eugene House Show, Pink Martini at The Hult Center / Oregon Bach Festival, Trio Subtonic & the Dead Kenny G's at Mt. Tabor Theater, The Weepies at Aladdin Theater. Even after honorable mentions, I cut some GREAT ones… 2010 was a great year.

2010 mix
18th Dec 10 (Sat) 2 comments
Time for this years mix CD… check out 2009's over here. No major theme this time like prior mixes… the only rule I placed before myself was that everything is current (i.e.- released in 2010).
The following songs were put on the mix CD from lossless sources where possible and for promotional purposes only (read: free direct market advertising to people who decidedly love music). Most of the artists on this compilation are independent (put out the music themselves) or signed to smaller, independent labels. If you like what you hear, check out their music / support them with your wallet if you are able. The artists' Webpage, MyFace & Spacebook (whether official or not), and Amazon links are available for each song below. I've also included concert review links if I've seen the artist recently.
If you want one of these mix CDs, message me (see my "About" page).
PDF front liner is available HERE (designed to print double-sided).

01 Mike Patton "Il Cielo In Una Stanza" from Mondo Cane
Mike Patton of Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Fantômas, et cetera is known for more boisterous, left of center fare. With Mondo Cane, he classes up the joint that is Ipecac Records. Mondo Cane, named after the film, is Mike's homage to 50s Italian pop songs. He croons some classic Italian songs with the backing of the Orchestra Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini conducted by Aldo Sisillo. The artwork, in both CD digipack and vinyl, is stupendous. This is a magnificent record – both aurally and visually. It'll rank near the top of my upcoming year-end lists…
02 Charlotte Gainsbourg & Beck "IRM" from IRM
IRM came out in late November 2009 – which was after I had done last year's mix; so I'm sneaking it into this year's mix. Beck collaborated with singer/actress Charlotte on the whole album (outside of one song). It's a nice poppy-electronic mix… some French tunes as well (her father is French musical legend Serge Gainsbourg). The album and track were inspired by her head trauma in 2007 ("IRM" is the French acronym synonymous with what we call an "MRI machine" in the US). My favorite part may be that the IRM delivers rhythmic support to the track.
03 Ellery "Pieces (live)" original from This Isn't Over Yet
This version is from Ellery's live album that preceded their wonderful 2nd studio album that hit this year. Ellery is one of my favorite things in Cincinnati… I miss being able to see them multiple times a year (sad face). Husband/wife duo of Justin & Tasha Golden craft singer-songwriter pop songs… usually layered nicely on their albums with the help of producer, knob-twiddler Ric Hordinski (of Over the Rhine fame). This album is with Malcolm Burn at the helm (Daniel Lanois / Bob Dylan / Iggy Pop / Kaki King / Emmylou Harris / etc).
04 Comic Wow "Nice Chaps" from Library Catalog Music Series: Music for Mysteries of Mind Space and Time
Asthmatic Kitty's Library Catalog Music Series (LCMS) is much more hit than miss. There have been a couple albums that didn't interest me for multiple listens, but Comic Wow's settled nicely from the get go. LCMS (as a series) is made up of instrumental albums designed for possible use in films and television, background sounds for home or office. Per the P.R., "Comic Wow are sonic illustrators, alchemists, designers, dilettantes', poets, teachers, Socialists, and outdoorsmen whose advocacy of affordable colored cod pieces helped influence the look of thirty-third century America." Whatever you call it, I like it.
05 Holy Fuck "Red Lights" from Latin
Despite what you think of their choice of band name, these Toronto band continue to put out great, groove-infused live electronic music that is both experimental and a poppy-force in the indie rock movement. Latin, their third full length album, grabbed me immediately when it came out this past May… and it's #1 with a bullet as far as instrumental albums go in 2010. To top it off, they swung through Oregon twice this year (both excellent shows), and they put out quite possibly the cutest video for the raddest song ("Red Lights" – click the kitty to the right). The video now has over 1,000,000 views on the YouTubes. Only 900,000 views are from me.
06 Damien Jurado "Beacon Hill" from Saint Bartlett
I got into Damien Jurado via the Seattle-based melancholy, indie singer-songwriter scene (i.e.- Pedro the Lion / David Bazan). While similar in general geography and friendship, Damien strikes me as more of a pure "songwriter" when compared to David's social critique set to music. Saint Bartlett fits well into Damien's oeuvre. At a show this past February (6 months before the album came out), I hardly knew any of the songs but felt as though I did. That's a testament to his craft.
07 Jeanne Cherhal "Certains Animaux" from Charade
I first heard Jeanne Cherhal when we picked up her second album (Douze fois par an) when in Toulouse, France, for my MBA program in 2004. Only available in France, I've managed to get her albums via Amazon.fr (good thing the buttons are in roughly the same spot). I still don't know what she's saying, but I dig her style.
08 Nellie McKay "The Portal" from Home Sweet Mobile Home
Nellie McKay's move to Verve (instead of Sony) has been good for her. They seem to give her free reign to put out Doris Day cover albums one year and an album of originals the next. HSMH is a return to the quirky, diverse collection of songs that drove me to fall in love with her. "The Portal" is one of the mellower tunes from the album… the rest of the album is full of Nellie's modern piano jazz-pop, ukulele ditties, and even a pro-animal reggae tune. The album has grown on me nicely, and I'm looking forward to more Nellie in the near future. She seems to be in a period of prolificity as of late. This is greatly welcomed.
09 Puscifer "The Humbling River (Duet Mix)" from C is for… EP
When Tool / A Perfect Circle frontman Maynard James Keenan isn't rocking with those bands (both had touring activity this year), he's usually tending to his grapes or noodling around on some mildly offensive, but well-crafted music with his other side-project Puscifer. The C is for… EP actually came out last year, but since it was digital only at that stage and since the 2010 CD & vinyl releases contained a touch of new material – it fits the criteria for this year's compilation. He also put out new mixes / remixes for the Blood Into Wine documentary (about the Arizona wine scene). That record is called Sounds Into Blood Into Wine. As I type this, I actually got a call from my local Eugene Oregon wine/beer shop (16tons). They have my Caduceus/Merkin order in stock… so, coincidentally, I'll be dropping some major coin on some of Maynard's wine very shortly… glug glug.
10 Haftor Medbøe Group "Pneumatic" from A Box of Monkeys EP
This is another record that came out in late 2009… but I got it in 2010 and iTunes recognized it as 2010 (plus it was too late to be stricken from the CD mix rolls, as I liked it too much). The track faatures some nice guitar-based jazz, and the EP also features some songs with vocals that aren't too unlike Björk or Under Byen (also known as "a-OK with me"). It's a delightful EP that put Haftor on my radar… for good.
11 Sufjan Stevens "Futile Devices" from The Age of Adz
The first Sufjan track that made its way onto this 2010 compilation comes from his second release from 2010. The Age of Adz is a odd musical assembly. At first I didn't know what to think of it, then I started to like it, and then after seeing him live – I truly loved the album. This song is actually one of the songs that I fell in love with right away. For those not familiar with Sufjan, this track fits better with some of his earlier work and not so much with Adz as a whole. But I think if you have an open mind and a desire to explore, you may very well fall in love with this record as well.
12 AutorYno "Overture Automatique" from Pastrami Bagel Social Club
I am fans of some of the other Jewish rock acts on John Zorn's Tzadik label: like Eyal Maoz's Edom, Jon Madof's Rashanim, and Yoshie Fruchter's Pitom. The description for this AutorYno debut from Tzadik was "a wild klezmer/rock fusion by this crazed band of Paris-born punk rockers… AutorYno hits with a hardedged sound and an exciting musical imagination. Full of youthful energy, massive guitar and centered by a powerful beat, they present eleven instrumentals that combine the power of rock with a taste of Jewish tradition." Regardless of Tzadik's usual/expected hyperbole, I couldn't not get it. I'm glad I did, and I will say that it will rank high amongst my instrumental finds in 2010.
13 Glen Phillips "The Innocent" from Tornillo
The voice of Toad the Wet Sprocket has been putting out some fantastic albums since his first solo album (2000's Abulum). Tornillo was recorded in 2003 with David Garza, but was shelved / lost. Many of the songs were re-recorded and put out on 2005's Winter Pays For Summer (a favorite of mine). Regardless of some of the songs making their way out to the fans, there are still some never-before-released gems on here. Glen put it out about a month ago via his bandcamp page. $7. A total steal.
14 Beats Antique "Egyptic" from Blind Threshold
I got to see Zoe Jakes of Beats Antique twice this year… once with Beats Antique during Eugene Celebration, and once with the Indigo Bellydance troupe as part of their Le Serpent Rouge tour. She had a knee in a brace during Eugene Celebration; so she lended her stage presence to additional percussion instead of dance – which was unfortunate. Beats Antique is a bellydance-friendly, electronic and live instrument band from the Bay Area. Elements of Balkan music and tribal-fusion dance music. "Egyptic" is indicative of their infectuous sound.
15 The Weepies "Empty Your Hands" from Be My Thrill
Syrupy singer-songwriter pop is not my bailiwick, but I do find myself drawn to it on occasion. I guess even my CD collection needs a "rom-com" soundtrack every now and again. The Weepies write well-crafted songs about love and life. It's hard to say anything bad about them.
16 Jónsi "Kolniður" from Go
Sigur Rós-frontman's debut solo album was going to be an acoustic affair, and then it turned into a lushly produced, Rós-ian opus with a multimedia firestorm of a tour (two U.S. legs with stunning stage design by 59 Productions). Jónsi is superbly brilliant and and ambivalently hyper-sensitively shy individual (ex. his abrupt cancelation of in-store performance tour) and boisterous-acting performer (ex. his magnificent stageshow). This album makes me excited for more solo work in the future, but I hope his day job with Sigur Rós is not on hold for too much longer.
17 George Hrab "Hai Yookito 'Ya" from Trebuchet
George Hrab creates one of my favorite podcasts ever… the Geologic Podcast. It's not about geology. It's about science, skepticism, and his general life as a musician from Bethlehem, PA. He is both humorous and intelligent, and he puts out great albums as well. Trebuchet is his 6th studio album, and it features some great instrumental songs as well as some witty numbers fitting his skeptical, atheistic viewpoint. One of my favorite songs on it is "A Small Comfort," which is about the death of his dog Oscar. I'd put it on a mix CD, but it honestly makes me cry everytime I hear it. I also give George some kudos for kicking off his album with the Christopher Hitchens' inspired "God Is Not Great" (an atheist pop song). Bravo!
18 Kaki King "Falling Day" from Junior
Kaki King is a guitar phenom, and this is her second album in a row that seems to be moving more towards turning into a more vocal, indie rock songstress. It's still full of her amazing guitarwork, but brings in a whistful lyricism. I'm still getting used to her "vocal legs," but I like what I hear so far.
19 John Zorn's The Dreamers "Hashul" from Masada Book Two: Book of Angels, Vol. 14 (Ipos)
Let's just put this out there now… with thirteen albums and a DVD out in 2010, John Zorn might seem to have more misses than hits. Well, I don't think there's been a more consistent set of songs than his Masada songs, and there hasn't been a more consistently great series than the Masada Book Two series (Zorn's Masada songs covered by others). The Dreamers is a supergroup, too: Marc Ribot, Joey Baron, Cyro Baptista, Kenny Wollesen, Trevor Dunn and Jamie Saft – pillars in the adventurous, downtown NYC scene.
20 Sufjan Stevens "The Owl and the Tanager" from All Delighted People EP
This is my favorite song from Sufjan's 50+ minute "EP" from earlier this year. Beautiful and haunting, and again, not as characteristic of the rest of the EP, which seems more experimental and adventurous compared to "Owl" or his older material. Originally only released online via bandcamp, the EP saw physical form (CD & vinyl) earlier this month. I'm looking forward to spinning the vinyl when it hits my front porch.
unfortunately missing (due to space or flow limitations, or that I simply didn't get them in the mail yet): Kevin Moore's Shine, Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger (Sean Lennon & Charlotte Kemp Muhl)'s Acoustic Sessions, Mogwai's Special Moves/Burning, Zero 7's Record… and John Zorn's Moonchild Trio Ipsissimus, because I didn't want to scare you. Oh well, those may make it on my "favorite albums" of 2010 list.

REVIEW: Nellie McKay @ the Shedd (Eugene, OR – 10/29/10)
2nd Nov 10 (Tue) 2 comments
I wasn't able to attend the Nellie McKay show at the Shedd in Eugene on Friday (due to Sufjan Stevens in Portland the same night). I was completely torn, but I've had the opportunity to see Nellie several times since living here in the PacNW (four times in 3 years) and Sufjan far fewer times (i.e.- none).
I did send someone in my place… here are some lovely photos and a write-up of the show taken by guest blogger Margarita O'Brien from Emobie Photography…
Margarita's write-up of the show:
Let's face it. I just love Nellie McKay. I am extremely grateful that The Shedd here in little ol' Eugene, Oregon, keeps managing to bring her back. She has serious musical talent, diversity, and a quirky, silly sense of humor that I dig. That makes a great show when she's solo, but holy cannoli, there was a five piece backup band! THAT makes for a phenomenal, knock-your-socks-off show.
The introductions for the band members were extremely silly ("And just released on bail for jay walking…") and the crowd was enthusiastic so I will likely have the names completely wrong and I am seriously sorry about that, 'cause these guys were the bomb diggity. It was seriously hard to hear with the laughing and cheering. Corrections greatly appreciated!
Guitar: Terry Park?
Bass: Willy Harvey
Sax: Mark Fischer?
Trumpet: Willy Mario?
Drums: Benjamin Barnum?
"That's right! We have two willies!"
There are few things I tire of more quickly than a show with a "sound" that never changes.
Me-"Is this still the first song? Good Glory, it's long."
Dan-"This is the fifth song."
Me-"*Giant Eye Roll*"
This exchange could not happen at a Nellie McKay show. She skillfully flutters her way through Big Band, Reggae, Jazz, Blues, Pop, sweet old Doris Day tunes (and a number of Ella Fitzgerald tunes this time). The band was right there with her making everything fuller, brighter, grander, and making it difficult for some folks to stay put in their seats.
The crowd was fairly enthusiastic and really seemed to love "Mother of Pearl." This is Eugene after all. There were even a couple zombies dancing around at the end.
Go See Nellie! She'll make you think. She'll make you laugh. She might make you whistle.

theYage's Attack Ships on Fire
29th Oct 10 (Fri) Leave a comment
Experimental electronic artist theYage finally put out their new album, Attack Ships on Fire. It's a great combination of drum & bass, jungle, hip-hop, and some hardcore/metal as well. Utilizing two vocalist/MCs laid across a plentiful beats and breaks. The album speaks of an apocalyptic, post-Bush era world – pieced together with dark and emotional influences and ties.
I've dug theYage's music for a while, and it's nice to see the fruits of their labors on this CD. It's available on CD or digital download at bandcamp. The CD version is superbly designed (and think it would also translate well to a 180g vinyl format).
In other news… Sufjan Stevens show is tonight in Portland (Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall)!!! Check back Saturday for my review. I'll also have a representative at the Nellie McKay show at the Shedd in Eugene; so check back over this weekend for photos from that show as well.

Q. I am expecting pregnancy,My husband advises me to avoid eating papaya. Is there any way out. I am expecting pregnancy, I am happy and joyous. My husband deals a lot with healthy food to be consumed by me and even caring a lot from now and is happier than me. He advises me to avoid eating papaya, but I like them a lot, is there any way out.
A. Congratulations! It is bliss to be pregnant. Eating papaya is harmful if you eat it raw at the initial quarter of your pregnancy. Once consumed in full ripe state it does not pose any problem. More over its applicable to some people based on their constitution. Actually it is good for digestion and it's known for its heat content.

When starting a Data Governance program, significant time, effort and bandwidth is typically spent selling the concept of data governance and telling people in your organization what data governance will do for them. This may not be the best strategy to take. We should focus on making Data Governance THEIR idea not ours.
Shouldn't the strategy be that we get the business people from our organization to tell US why data governance is necessary and what data governance will do for them? If only we could get them to tell us these things? Maybe we can.
Join Bob Seiner and DATAVERSITY for this informative Real-World Data Governance webinar that will focus on getting THEM to tell US where data governance will add value. Seiner will review techniques for acquiring this information and will share information of where this information will add specific value to your data governance program. Some of those places may surprise you.

Viking tennis begins MWC season
Andy York
The Lawrence tennis team will begin its MWC season this weekend as they host Carroll and Knox. The Vikings will be competing for a top-two spot in the Northern Division, and a chance to make the MWC tournament held in Madison.
The Vikings got their season off to a rocky start last weekend, losing 7-0 to UW-Oshkosh. Senior Brian Hilgeman was the lone Viking to take his match to three sets in singles, and the second doubles team, Fabrice Munyakazi-Juru and Alex Weck, was the only Vikings team to win a match by a score of 8-3.
The Vikings are strong four-deep this season. Munyakazi-Juru is the first singles player, with Nick Beyler at number two singles. Hilgeman and Weck play number three and four singles respectively. The last two spots in the Vikings lineup are still up for grabs. Currently those spots are held by Nate Kish and Phil Roy, but Ryan Bly, Andy Wolski, and Andy Rozanski will also compete for them over the course of the season.
The doubles teams for the Vikings are similar to last year's. Hilgeman and Beyler are back for the entire season, and will be playing number one doubles this year. Munyakazi-Juru and Weck are the second doubles team, and then the third doubles spot is open for those same five guys fighting for the last two singles spots.
The Vikings will begin playing outdoors after spring break on the courts behind Hiett Hall.

On behalf of The Law Offices of Zev Goldstein, PLLC posted in Traffic Violations on Saturday, October 15, 2016.
New York drivers who receive a summons to appear in court are required to show up on the date and time indicated on the ticket. Should someone fail to attend court when they are supposed to, he or she may end up dealing with a situation more serious than a simple traffic ticket.
On behalf of The Law Offices of Zev Goldstein, PLLC posted in Traffic Violations on Thursday, October 13, 2016.
In an effort to raise revenue to pay for more police officers, the Nassau County Executive has proposed a steep increase in the fees drivers are charged for receiving tickets for traffic violations. According to ABC 7, the fee increase would be $105 per ticket. That represents a flat fee increase for every kind of ticket, regardless of the ticket's current cost.
On behalf of The Law Offices of Zev Goldstein, PLLC posted in Drunk Driving on Saturday, October 8, 2016.
According to a new study, if you are a fan of energy drinks, you may be at greater risk of a drunk driving violation. The study found that people who consumed alcohol and energy drinks together were more likely to get behind the wheel when they knew they were too intoxicated compared to people who drank alcohol only, reports Live Science.
On behalf of The Law Offices of Zev Goldstein, PLLC posted in Traffic Violations on Saturday, October 1, 2016.
It is commonly recognized that if you are convicted of a traffic violation in New York, you can expect to see a rise in your car insurance premiums. The serious offense of driving under influence may cause a steep hike in rates, while other offenses like speeding tickets and failure to yield may result in a yearly increase of a few hundred dollars, according to NerdWallet.
