Here we are at the end of the first week of May. April had been a bit of a tough month, and I felt like all the habits were sliding out of my grasp. Things seem to be going much better now and I'm getting myself back on track! Read on for the details.

I'm a day late with this post having gone AWOL over the weekend. I didn't blog at all! Naughty me… But I'm back now and determined to do better. Here's how I did on last week's goals.

Another week gone and progress continues to be… not quite where I want it. I have only myself to blame, admittedly. I set these goals, I ought to try and work on them!

Picasso's Petite Chouette
July 4, 2020 By: Dara Vandor
Pioneering portraits, Cubist paintings and ceramics
While Picasso is best known for his pioneering portraits and Cubist paintings, it would be a shame to overlook one of the richest veins of his career: his ceramics. While vacationing at his summer home in Vallauris, Provence in 1946, Picasso had a chance encounter with Georges and Suzanne Ramié, the owners of the Madoura pottery studio. The three began both a collaborative relationship and friendship that would endure until the artist's death in 1973.
Ceramic work engrossed Picasso in his later years, as he found the work less demanding than his hyper-physical painting style. During the last 27 years of his life, he designed 633 different ceramic editions. Several variations and one-offs stemmed from these collections, but in total Picasso produced some 3,500 pieces. He began by decorating utilitarian objects such as plates and bowls, but later began to create more complicated forms such as pitchers and vases with unique protuberances. The artist experimented with different techniques, playing with paint, form, engraving and moulds, using pottery as an extension of the other facets of his practice.
Picasso would work on his ceramics during holiday periods in the South of France. His second wife, Jacqueline Roque, actually worked at the Madoura pottery workshop, which is where the two met. Picasso's ceramics are often imbued with wit, humour and joy, which some scholars attribute both to this new romance as well as to the slower pace of life during the summer months—tucked away from the hurly burly of his monumental career.
Many of the ceramics Picasso produced were made in fairly large editions at what was then a very accessible price point. He was quite interested in expanding his collector base at a time when his paintings commanded high sums; the idea that the average consumer was able to bring a little Picasso into their homes—even during a time of post-war austerity—appealed greatly. Every piece was stamped or marked, often with their edition number and/or date. The marks evolved as the years passed, but the most common are 'Madoura Plein Feu,' 'Empreinte Originale de Picasso,' and 'Edition Picasso.' While intended to be functional, quotidian objects, prices have since risen. In 2016, his 1953 ceramic sculpture "Le Hibou (Rouge et Blanc)" fetched $2.4 million at auction.
'Petite Chouette', Ceramic Jug, c.1949
Often incorporating animals into his work, the owl was a particularly favoured subject. Picasso had rescued a small injured owl while he was working in the Musée Grimaldi in Antibes in 1946. The owl had fallen from the rafters, and had injured a claw; Picasso named the bird Ubu, and after he was healed, he joined Picasso's menagerie of caged birds. Within a six-month period, Picasso painted Ubu at least a dozen times.
We are pleased to offer "Petite Chouette" a ceramic jug by Picasso in our Decorative Arts & Design auction, offered online from July 4-9.
The jug, lot 108, shows a more playful side of the owl motif. While Picasso was known to portray owls in aggressive, dominant and ornery poses, this splendid example is quite whimsical, with bright eyes, mischievous hands and even a tiny avian smile.

While social media connects and reconnects us with people from our entire lives whom may live thousands of miles away now but a 2015 study by UPMC (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center) presented by Independent (http://www.independent.co.uk/us) actually revealed that heavy social media users are three times more likely to suffer from depression. They conducted research with 19-32 year olds and tested it with 11 different social media sites. They found that those who checked their social media more than 30 times per week and spent over an hour a day on social media were 2.7 times for likely to suffer from depression.
It is important to note, which I also find interesting from a testing study that they call this a cross sectional study and doesn't address cause and effect. This essentially means which came first the chicken or the egg? Were these people already naturally more depressed and got on social media or did they get more depressed and develop "Facebook Depression" thinking that their lives are not nearly as exciting as those presented on social media.
Could this become a spinning vortex of being depressed and getting on social media to connect which only makes the person more depressed as they feel their own personal life doesn't measure up?
In many instances social media can help combat depression especially for those homebound. I also know many people who are not really on social media and all of them that i know who are not on it seem to be very happy and well adjusted. I believe we will see many more tests along this line coming in the future.

Decent column: Earn with a Purpose throws lifeline to those with diverse disabilities in Naperville
By Hilary Decent
Naperville Sun |
William Wepking, who works for Earn with a Purpose, makes a delivery to Jenny Wachter at Naperville Running Company in Naperville. (Earn with a Purpose / HANDOUT)
Nineteen-year-old William Wepking has had a busy year. After graduating from Naperville North High School, he's been continuing his education with daily Zoom classes while balancing a part-time job.
He's proud to be supporting the new nonprofit for which he works, but the real excitement came when he received his first paycheck. When you have Down syndrome, getting the opportunity to have real employment is a huge deal.
William and his friend, Peter Sotir, work for Earn with a Purpose, a new Naperville-based organization founded by Sotir's parents, Mark and Dr. Migdalia Sotir, and their close friends, Russ and Laura Karlins.
William is enrolled in Naperville School District 203′s Connections program for young people with special needs but this is his first paid job.
"He is really excited to have a job, he's very proud," his mother, Kiki Wepking, said. "He says he feels really privileged that they chose him. He's very personable and loves interacting with people."
Naperville resident William Wepking, a 19-year-old with Down syndrome, has his first job thanks to the new Naperville nonprofit Earn with a Purpose, which finds work for people with diverse developmental disabilities. (Earn with a Purpose / HANDOUT)
Earn with a Purpose has partnered with Gold Eagle, a Chicago-based manufacturing company, to provide employment for people with diverse developmental disabilities. Employees sell, pack and deliver hand sanitizer and cleaning products.
William's job is to give personal presentations to customers over the internet, explaining the products available and guiding them through the ordering process.
"It would be quite a struggle for William without this job right now," his mother said. "It's quite disappointing because there are so many of these kids with diverse disabilities who have the ability to do something. We just see our son William as William because we are all different."
After their son was born, the Wepkings' took advantage of early intervention services, teaching him sign language to help with his communication skills.
"Someone once asked if I was disappointed he had disabilities, but I replied no one knows what their child will be like," she said. "I am super thankful for this opportunity because it is hard. The world is changing ... hopefully people will start to see abilities and not disabilities in the future."
The Wepkings help William by driving him to deliveries.
"When he makes deliveries, he wears a mask and leaves the products on the doorstep," Kiki Wepking said. "The whole family gets involved but that's how it's always been, it's not anything new. It helps to make him feel more successful. When he opened his first paycheck it was exactly the same reaction as anybody, that's what people have to understand."
Wepking said she would recommend Earn with a Purpose to any parent of a young adult with diverse developmental challenges.
"This is really a great opportunity to give them a real sense of pride and purpose," she said.
Peter Sotir was one of the first employees of Earn with a Purpose, the Naperville nonprofit co-founded by his parents and another couple to provide work opportunities for young people with diverse developmental disabilities. (Earn with a Purpose / HANDOUT)
Dr. Migdalia Sotir, a psychiatrist, said launching the business that helps people like William and her 17-year-old son, Peter, is easier for someone who can empathize with families are going through the same experiences.
"I had to devote myself to caring for (Peter) because he was struggling," Sotir said. "Now I see parents of other autistic children to support them. It has been very humbling to learn firsthand how to help someone. As a family we have learned to be flexible and integrate Peter's needs in a way that has enriched everyone."
With his family's help, Peter has overcome many challenges. For example, when he was a young child, doctors didn't know if he would walk, she said. He went on to be part of his school's running team.
"Naperville North has been wonderful in including him," she said. "He's also volunteered at Loaves and Fishes, the Naperville Public Library and the YMCA."
Obtaining paid employment is a far greater challenge for those with developmental disabilities so finding businesses willing to partner with them is not easy.
"Children of Peter's age are usually unemployed with nothing to do and nothing to look forward to," Sotir said. "The pandemic has been hard on him. He has medical issues, and we didn't want him to get infected."
Like William, Peter was delighted to receive his first paycheck.
"It's been great seeing his growing sense of excitement through his day," Sotir said. "What we want now is more repeat customers and more business partners we can sell products for. We are open to any products that can be utilized on an ongoing basis."
Peter's older brothers, David and Michael, are directors of Earn with a Purpose.
"They are Peter's strongest supporters. They love their brother and want to see him succeed," Sotir said.
Co-founder Russ Karlins said he is hoping to expand the business to other suburbs.

"When we hire people, they're not just an employee, they're supported by their whole family," he said.
Karlins also has the experience of knowing what it's like to have a family member with diverse disabilities. His wife's brother, Scott, has cerebral palsy. The Karlins are board members of Marklund, the nonprofit that runs the residential home in Geneva where Scott lives and their son, Matt Karlins, is an Earn with a Purpose director.
"It's been a great learning experience for him," Russ Karlins said.
Despite the pandemic, the business is doing better than he imagined when they launched in July, he said.
"Selling high-quality hand sanitizer that is safe and made in Chicago has definitely helped," Karlins said.

Furnaces are like vehicles or any other type of machine; sometimes, they malfunction and require timely repair by a professional.

Is Fortnite Battle Royale about to get hit by a comet? These fans have some detailed theories
By Connor Sheridan 30 March 2018
There's a strange comet in the skies of Fortnite Battle Royale, and it seems to be getting bigger
The next time you have a few spare seconds between bashing trees and shotgunning fools in Fortnite Battle Royale, cast your gaze toward the stars. There's something new up there! Epic quietly snuck another celestial body into the skies of Fortnite a few weeks ago, and now it seems to be getting bigger. Theorists on Reddit's Fortnite Battle Royale subforum have all kinds of ideas about what this potential impact event could mean.
Fortnite tips
Fortnite Tier 100 Challenge guide
Fortnite weapons guide
I can't say with 100 percent certainty that the glowing object in the sky is a comet headed straight for the uncannily diverse island that is Fortnite Battle Royale's known world. But look at this screenshot posted by Reddit user Niccorazi-_- a few days before Fortnite update 3.4 went live.
Then compare that to this screenshot I just grabbed this morning.
It looks bigger and better defined, don't you think? What was once a bright blob now has a crescent shape on the bottom right and a wider aura on the top left - suggesting a leading edge and following trail, respectively. The trail is subtly animated in-game as well, making it seem even more comet-y. Cometous? Com-edic?
Niccorazi-_- also made the key observation that the latest set of Fortnite Battle Pass challenges include an objective to head to mountain summits, some of which have new (non-usable) telescopes. In the video game business they call that "signposting", AKA using parts of the world to non-verbally say "Hey, look over there!" Or "up there" in this case.
I'd worry about everybody hoarding supplies and turning on each other in the threat of this seemingly apocalyptic event… but that's just a normal day in Fortnite Battle Royale, so I don't think anyone would notice a difference. Some players are hopeful that the comet will crash down and change the map, most likely to coincide with the arrival of Season 4 in about a month. The most popular theory is that the comet will land directly on the love-to-hate-it Tilted Towers region (infamous for attracting droves of bloodthirsty newbies), transforming it into - wait for it - Crispy Crater.
That's 100-percent conjecture of course - the comet could land anywhere on the map. Or maybe it won't crash down at all, instead passing just close enough to serve as Battle Royale's first all-new map since launch. Space-jumping around on an icy comet, bashing down alien architecture… It'd be a great opportunity for Epic to finally put that jetpack in, too. Until we find out more, keep watching the skies.

When the freezer failed and we had to touch everything, I discovered a two year old package of Dungeness Crab that I was sure would need to be trashed, but I decided to thaw it anyway. To my surprise the flavor was still good but it was a little tough – so I chopped it into smaller pieces. I looked around on line and found a simple recipe for crab cakes that included everything I had on-hand except celery and I adapted it for my 10 ounces of crab to get the recipe below.
Since the Amish Casserole didn't use all of the package of hash browns and the pan was already dirty, I decided to go ahead and fry them up with some onions for later use and this day I had them for breakfast. Since they were already fully cooked, I just gave them a quick fry in a hot pan to crisp up both sides. After plating, I topped with some of the reheated sausage fond gravy and a couple of fried eggs.
I think the word awesome comes to mind for this breakfast. I mixed the little gravy that was left with some dog food and the pups had a breakfast treat as well – I believe they thought it was awesome too.
After two supper meals, I had one piece of salmon left and I decided to have it for breakfast. I went on line and found this recipe from Fitness Magazine that included ingredients that I had on hand and needed to be used. Since it was for two servings, I cut it in half to get the one below.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the spinach and cook, tossing, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
Note: I changed the cooking directions to suit the way I like to cook omelets.
4. Pour the eggs into the skillet and swirl the pan so they spread out and add a glass lid.
5. When the top is about set add the cheese to one half of the eggs, followed by the salmon and spinach and return the lid until the eggs have set on the other half.
6. Slide the omelet onto a plate, stuffed side first, and use the pan to fold the bare egg side over the filling as you do. Serve immediately.
It was outstanding and when you order a salmon omelet at my place you get salmon – the original recipe called for one ounce vs. my five ounces. I might back off to three ounces but never to just one. I think I'd also put cheese on both halves next time. Maybe mine was really a salmon fillet with eggs wrapped around it.
In the previous post, I covered some of my breakfast meals and this one will be about suppers.
While moving the freezer stuff around (after it quit working), I discovered a package of four salmon filet pieces that I thought we had, but couldn't find, and decided to cook them for a couple of meals. I found a recipe on line using oil, garlic and lemon, but since I've always liked to use mayo in lieu of oil, I modified it to get this.
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a 4 sided baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the salmon in the middle of the foil.
2. S&P the salmon and add a layer of mayo.
4. Top with sliced lemon or lime.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
We had a couple of part bags of Yukon Gold and red potatoes that were sprouting and needed to be cooked so I peeled and boiled them all. While taking out the dogs, I discovered some fresh parsley that survived last night's freeze so I decided to have parsley potatoes for this meal.
As I see it, a typical meal often includes an appetizer, main course of protein, starch, and vegetable, and a dessert but I changed it up a little. For an appetizer, I had a glass of wine (aperitif), and my main course was protein, starch, and fruit rather than vegetable in the form of fermented grape juice, and for dessert I just had a second piece of salmon. If you work hard enough, anything can be justified.
While we are both carnivores, Bev is the one who wants meat for nearly every meal and that means beef, pork or chicken. I'm more likely to be okay with meatless meals and I'm definitely more of a fish lover than her, so you will see several fish/seafood meals from me while she is gone.
When we were in New England a few years ago, one of the restaurant dishes I really enjoyed was haddock baked in an individual serving dish so I decided to try and replicate it using catfish – any white fish works. One of the key ingredients is a crisp topping to go along with herbs and spices.
I went on line and found two recipes that when combined seemed a good place to start and I ended up with this – since I ate only the fish, I considered this as one serving.
1. Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
2. Add about a tablespoon of melted butter (or more) to a baking dish and arrange the catfish in a single layer.
3. To the fish, sprinkle with S&P, Old Bay, and parsley.
4. Mix the Panko, 3T melted butter, and Parmesan in a bowl and spread evenly over the fish.
5. Bake 15 minutes, then broil until the topping is browned.
I thought it was very good but with a tad too much parsley.
Bev, Pat (SIL), Cindy, and Pat (neighbor) piled in the car and headed to Marco Island for their annual trek to the beach and as usual I'm dog sitting and looking after myself. While they all tried to pack lite, the back of the Buick (back row of seats folded down) was almost completely full but I didn't think about a pic until they had left.
Ten days into their two weeks, I will be driving the motor home down along with my buddy, Joe, acting as navigator, extra road watcher, and dog wrangler then everyone but Pat and Bev will fly home (about $50 on Allegient) and we will hang around Florida for a while.
Often times, Bev will cook me some dishes before she leaves, but since I've been in a cooking mood lately, I advised her not to bother and I would cook for myself. A couple of days prior to her departure, our freezer quit working and we moved everything out until we could get it fixed (turned out to be a blocked drain). Since we touched everything in the freezer moving it out and back (re-organized) I knew what all was available to me for the week.
My last post was about Chicken Pepperoni and it ended with how I froze them.
Back in 1980, Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase made a really cute movie named "Seems Like Old Times" and one of the things that got played up in the movie was a dish called Chicken Pepperoni. I'm not sure it even existed prior to the movie but there are now several recipes for it and we've made one of them previously.
We decided we'd like to make it again and I found a write up about the movie that included a recipe for the dish on Kelly's "Wildflour's Cottage Kitchen" blog, so we decided to give it a try – be sure to click on the link for a background of the dish, the original recipe, and some great shots. Here is one of Kelly's pics showing the single recipe.
With eight grandchildren and supposed no plans for any more, 41 year old daughter, Wende, threw in a major surprise – guess what, I'm pregnant. And one week ago, tomorrow, 7# Eliza entered the world about 30 minutes after they got to the hospital – nearly a car front seat birth.
On her 5th day, we drove over to Oak Ridge to meet Eliza and see Wende's new home. Talk about some major life changes in just a few months – fortunately, Wende's mom is there to help out.
While Eliza slept for our entire visit, we have a few shots to show.
I've always enjoyed her recipes and I'd been wanting some fish so when newly minted Chef Lea Ann posted the recipe for Red Lion Inn Swordfish on her Cooking On The Ranch blog, I knew we had to try it – we like everything with lemon-butter-caper sauce. Be sure to click the link for the original recipe and I borrowed this photo from her blog to show her version - always a better pic than mine.
We served four very different soups from our serving area - the triple slow cooker comes in very handy.


I've just completed my 90-day challenge. It's been fantastic. First, the guillotine commitment of having to pay $1000 to the charity of Miles Beckler's choice worked wonders in terms of motivation.
There were a few days where my postings were minimalistic, but I enjoy the Zen style of very short posts. See my scorecard results here.
I don't like crafting posts with an eye towards the Google search engine. Yes, I kept a weather eye on this a bit, but I just don't like writing long titles based on common keyword searches when a more poetic title more closely captures what I'm trying to convey.
I enjoy the creativity of writing and blogging. It's just fun to come up with something each and every day. This is the most important takeaway from the 90-day exercise, and it's a good sign. I'm more ambivalent about making videos, but plan to continue this on an ad hoc basis just to develop content creation skills further.
Design is a skill unto itself apart from writing. It's super important for any online venture. (I know this is obvious, but until you are actually creating websites you don't really feel this deeply.) I'm not great at design. Not sure if I ever will be, which is ok as this can be outsourced.
During the 90-day period, I think it is best to do everything yourself if possible. Even if you plan to outsource at some point, it is super handy to have basic skills in most of the areas of online content creation.
I found I learn more with greater stability by producing a certain amount of work each and every day rather than doing marathon sessions of like 12 hours. Somehow the drip, drip, drip of steady work seems to solidify and allow learning to happen spontaneously rather than trying to force things through urgently.
I don't want to spread myself too thin working on multiple online platforms. For now, I will focus on my website, YouTube, and possibly Medium. I may link through to my website on other platforms though such as Facebook; haven't decided yet.
Actually jumping in and getting my feet wet has driven home that it could take a long time (years) to build anything online around content creation that generates significant income. That's the reality, and I will trim my sails accordingly.
This can be a very solo way of life producing content online if you don't have a business partner or partners. I find it way too isolating. I miss working on teams, having colleagues, working towards common goals, meeting new people within the context of doing work that people care about. I haven't decided how to address this yet.
I did not market my websites at all during this period. This was a learning phase. I was not sure what niche I wanted to occupy and was still finding my voice. I really have almost no traffic to speak of. I'm ok with that at this point.
I look at the material I produced as a start, but I need to improve the quality. I plan to rework some posts, delete others, etc.
I've decided to keep going with this 90-day challenge. I'm shooting for 121 days. However, the guillotine aspect is gone. I'm not on the hook to pay anyone any money if I don't produce every day. Frankly, the key focus for me at this point is the joy and satisfaction of creating and putting it out there–regardless of other results.
That last point is crucial. You have to actually like what you do in the area of content creation or you will likely not go the distance.
As noted above, during this 90-day challenge (partially because of it), I've realized that I miss the social aspect of work. So I'm considering taking my own advice and shooting to join a fantastic institution. We shall see.
One key win from the 90-day challenge is just overcoming the basic fear of exposing yourself to the world. Those first few posts online are sort of bracing even though in reality you will have no traffic at first and so there is much less exposure than you expect.
We Learn By Doing, Not By Thinking About Doing!
Overall, the 90-day challenge has been a great experience. It's been awesome just hanging it out there and being willing to put your perspective out into the world. Also, even if you have no intention of becoming an online expert in any niche, if you have any interest in any kind of entrepreneurship, I would encourage you to launch a 90-day challenge. All commerce has a web component now. So if you plan to have any kind of business of your own, having the basic skills of designing a website, working with YouTube, etc., is just basic knowledge now. And this has what has been most satisfying to me. I feel much more clued into the modern world of commerce and how it all hangs together.
I hope you take the 90-day challenge. Don't wait until you have the perfect idea. You don't need to spend much money at all. If you have absolutely no idea what you want to create content about, start by just doing book reviews, or talking about hiking trails in your area, or your hobby, or what you think about the subjects you are studying at school. The true takeaway from all this is that YOU LEARN BY DOING. You learn in this process what you like. You learn what you are good at. You learn what niche you don't get bored with. You learn if you prefer institutions to being out there solo. You start to learn how Google really works, how to build websites, how easy it is to upload videos to YouTube.
So take the plunge. You have nothing to lose.

This page is for those who want the instruction to fold a traditional origami tulip.
This origami tulip is for novice. You will start with a balloon base and it is fairly easy fold.
You may use any kind of paper to fold this origami tulip. Here I am using the same color paper for both the front and the back sides. But you could use one side color only paper without any problem. Make sure the paper that you use is a square (all sides are equal and all the angles equal 90 degrees). The paper I am using here is 15cm x 15cm square one.

Kyren Wilson, Kettering's international professional snooker player, will be turning on the town's Christmas lights this year!
Kyren turned professional in 2010, after finishing fifth in the 2009/2010 PIOS rankings. Wilson won his first ranking title at the 2015 Shanghai Masters when, ranked 54th in the world, he defeated Judd Trump 10–9 in the final.
Kyren's star continues to rise following back-to-back tournament victories in September after claiming the 2018 Six Red World Championship title in Thailand and is currently ranked in the top 10 in the world!
Kyren grew up attending Kettering's Christmas light switch on events and is excited to have the honour of illuminating his home town.
A popular feature of recent BIG Switch Ons, the stars of the Lighthouse Theatre's festive Christmas pantomime, will be on stage to entertain the crowd.
This year's Aladdin production, features Arthur Bostrom ('Allo 'Allo) Twist & Pulse (Britain's Got Talent) and promises live music, colourful sets, beautiful costumes plus plenty of comedy, fun and laughter.
The BIG Switch On will also be a chance to recognise the contribution of Malcolm Vials to the local community. Affectionately known as 'Malcolm The Fish Man', he is a popular and well-known personality who has been serving the people and businesses of Kettering and Corby for many years!
There have been numerous calls for Malcolm to be involved in the evening's festivities and on the night, he will be congratulated for his achievements by the Mayor of Kettering.
This year's Aladdin production, features Arthur Bostrom ('Allo 'Allo) Twist & Pulse (Britain's Got Talent)and promises live music, colourful sets, beautiful costumes plus plenty of comedy, fun and laughter.
After the activities have finished on Market Place, The Yards will be hosting their very own light show in the front of The Exchange!
Various Christmas stalls will be joining for the evening as well as the return of their free ticketed prosecco bar, plus choir and the selfie mirror.

Mr Seselja: They close their eyes.
MS GALLAGHER: No. This goes to the model, Mr Seselja. You might be flippant and laugh it off but this goes to the model that when a patient comes to the doctor and their veins have collapsed—and that is what we are dealing with here, very sick people with collapsed veins—they want to treat it. A doctor wants to treat that and provide them with the best care they can.
One of the options, apart from counselling and apart from the provision of drug treatment services, is to minimise the harm that is being done. That is the view of the doctors, but the doctors have been very clear that it is not around endorsing or allowing the use of drugs.
DR BOURKE: My question is to the Minister for Multicultural Affairs. Minister, what plans does the government have to further enhance the Multicultural Festival, especially in the centenary year?
MS BURCH: I thank Dr Bourke for his question. Next year's National Multicultural Festival will be held from Friday, 8 February through to Sunday, 10 February, and I do encourage everyone in this place to come along and attend and to encourage their families and friends to come along as well.

(1) There is in a lease contract a warranty that for the lease term no person holds a claim to or interest in the goods that arose from an act or omission of the lessor, other than a claim by way of infringement or the like, which will interfere with the lessee's enjoyment of its leasehold interest.
(2) Except in a finance lease there is in a lease contract by a lessor who is a merchant regularly dealing in goods of the kind a warranty that the goods are delivered free of the rightful claim of any person by way of infringement or the like.
(3) A lessee who furnishes specifications to a lessor or a supplier shall hold the lessor and the supplier harmless against any claim by way of infringement of the like that arises out of compliance with the specifications. (1993, c. 463, s. 1.)


vocals and beautifully uplifting female vocal arrangements make the new full-length, "IGNORANCE", one of the finest musical releases of 2006 and an excellent way for any elektro patron to bring in 2007 with a bang! "Ignorance" deals with the concept of man's refusal to acknowledge that the terms of his existence are brutal and destructive, and the unwillingness of mankind to face the fact that this reality is of our own creation. We can escape and find salvation, but we must first throw off the blinders of ignorance!

Twitter's Considering an Advanced Version of TweetDeck - for a Monthly Fee
As the company continues to consider all avenues for monetization, Twitter is gauging user interest in an advanced, paid version of TweetDeck, which would include a range of new tools and features.
As you can see, the advanced version would incorporate analytics tracking, trending data, alerts and more. The new version would likely work on a monthly subscription basis.
How much additional insight they'd actually provide is the key question. Twitter already monetizes their data through Gnip, which reportedly costs between $300 to $4000 per month, depending on what level of data access you require. Given this, you'd think they wouldn't be looking to cannibalize their own revenue potential by offering too much data through this option, but then again, maybe there's a way to limit full access while giving you enough of a taste to make it functional - which they could do by highlighting trends and the like.
At present, your options for streams in TweetDeck are mostly limited to search related queries.
These can be hugely valuable when used the right way, but the suggested new options would provide a whole new range of possibilities.
Twitter, in a note shared with some users, has also said that the new TweetDeck:
"...would also offer extra features such as advanced audience insights & analytics, tools to monitor multiple timelines from multiple accounts and from multiple devices, including mobile, all in an ad-free experience."
In addition, they may also, according to reports, look to incorporate the ability to bookmark content for later, provide insight into who checked out your profile, unfollower tracking, an option to import user lists and priority customer support access.
There are some interesting considerations here - information is fairly limited on how it would actually work, or the potential costs, but the fact that Twitter is even considering such changes is a positive sign, particularly when you consider the platform's recent difficulties.
One of the more frustrating aspects of seeing Twitter's market declines has been the fact that Twitter itself is so essential, that even the President relies on the platform to communicate direct with his citizens. Given its relevance, and its place in our communicative process, it seems like Twitter has to be able to make money - there must be away for the platform to capitalize on the attention and interest and thrive, right?
This is ever further exacerbated when you look at the amount of third party tools and apps that are built on the back of Twitter - the network itself is fueling a whole industry that feeds on its data, while Twitter itself is coming under more and more pressure to produce more revenue positive programs.
Maybe, if they can make TweetDeck a better option, that'll inspire more users to switch across from external scheduling and management apps and make them come to Twitter direct, boosting both engagement and monetization potential.
Twitter also needs more avenues to showcase the potential of its data - research has shown that Tweet data can help predict flu outbreaks, warn of pending flood damage, there's any number of ways that Twitter insight is being used for predictive and forecasting purposes. Such capacity is hugely valuable - if Twitter can highlight more ways to actually utilize their platform to harness relevant trends, especially those of importance to specific businesses and sectors, that would be a big step in the right direction.
As noted, there's not a lot of information to go on right now, but Twitter is considering its options on this front - which is a good thing.
We'll keep you updated on any further developments.

Do you have special plans to enjoy the total eclipse?
By N&N Admin on August 16, 2017 Editorial
By Bill Derby
I've been fascinated by space since watching Flash Gordon movie serials between the main features shown at theaters in the 1950's. Buster Crabbe played Flash Gordon who was continually having issues with 'Ming,' his adversary in each episode. These short films always ended right at the most exciting moment to make sure you came back to the same theater to see what happened in the next Flash Gordon serial.
With a name like Buster Crabbe, Ming didn't have a chance. I never could figure out why Flash's spaceship dropped flaming fuel out of the rocket engine in outer space where there is no gravity. The special effects guys in the 1930's didn't have the technology to make the exhaust float in space. But, then again, we knew nothing of space in those days.
Russians reportedly stole the whole kit and kaboodle of Flash Gordon films to design their own space program.
In Johnson City we will all be waiting anxiously for the celestial show coming our way Monday, Aug. 21st with the total eclipse giving us a darkened display starting at 1:07 pm and lasting until 4:00 pm with the darkest at 2:36 p.m. Be sure not to look directly at the eclipse. Wear official eclipse dark glasses. Even a little exposure will damage your eyesight.
I've seen some celestial phenomena in my day to include meteor showers, aurora borealis (northern lights) and the Hyakutake comet in 1996 while living in South Dakota. I also got to see my Norwegian buddy, Carsen Aasen fly his hot air balloon all over Montana and South Dakota, a considerable celestial phenomenon.
According to experts, it will be almost a total eclipse in the Johnson City area. If you have a pet, they may head to bed early. Animals can be more sensitive to natural phenomena than humans. My dogs were sensitive to UPS trucks driving through our neighborhood. Both barked at the UPS truck long before I heard it bouncing down our street.
There are also people who chase after solar phenomenon. They are called umbraphiles: "shadow lovers."
Other important facts I found during eclipse research are listed and quoted below
"This eclipse will be the first total solar eclipse to be visible in the lower 48 states since February 1979 back when Jimmy Carter was in the White House and Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" was atop the music charts. It will be the first in 99 years to sweep from coast to coast."
"If you are an umbraphile, the next total solar eclipse won't come our way again until 2024."
According to some scientists and astronomers you could… "Literally Cry."
"The event has an indescribable effect on observers. While most experienced astronomers would concede that a total solar eclipse is the most powerful, gorgeous, and even life-altering of all celestial phenomena, a solar totality often invokes involuntary gasps and cries of wonder. You'll often hear that some kind of "feeling" accompanies the visual spectacle. Perhaps this has to do with the fact these events are accompanied by large changes in the amount of incoming electromagnetic radiation.
No discussion of totality should omit the strange science lurking behind it. It starts with a bizarre coincidence: the moon is four hundred times smaller than the sun, but it also floats four hundred times nearer to us. This makes the two disks in our sky appear to be the same size.
Now, if the moon appeared larger than the sun, it could still occasionally stand in front of it, but it would also blot out the dramatic prominences along the sun's edge, those geysers of pink nuclear flame. So for maximum amazingness, these bodies must have identical angular diameters—i.e., they must appear to be the same size. And they do."
1. During the total eclipse, experts say you can expect to see jets and ribbons of light in the corona, the sun's outer atmosphere, twisting and curling out into the sky.
2. Wildlife experts say birds return to roost and fall silent. Cicadas may stop singing and crickets may sing their night songs. Mosquitoes may come out to bite during moments when the sky darkens. A Victorian-era scientist noted during an eclipse that ants that were "busily carrying their burdens, stopped and remained motionless till the light reappeared."
3. Animals can become confused, and nocturnal animals may awaken and become active. Bats may take flight. A journal article published by the American Academy of Arts & Sciences reported that captive squirrels became agitated, butterflies disappeared, turtles hid, chickens huddled together and cows were "unconcerned."
4. Solar-powered equipment will take a brief hit, and solar-sensitive equipment set to come on at dusk may turn on.
5. During totality, stars will be visible, as will the planets Venus, Mercury, Mars and Jupiter.
6. Then again, China also produced the first known astronomical recordings of solar eclipses, inscribed in pieces of bone and shell called "oracle bones," from around 1050 B.C. or earlier.
7. By comparing those ancient records with modern calculations of eclipse patterns, scientists have determined that the day is 0.047 second longer today than it was back then.
8. Tidal friction, which causes that lengthening of the day, is also making the moon drift away. In about 600 million years it will appear too small to cover the sun, and there will be no more total solar eclipses.
In conclusion, it's my opinion that Rod Stewart wrote his hit song, "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" especially for Jimmy Carter while Stewart was under the influence of a total eclipse.

Progressive organizations said Tuesday that they are ramping up pressure on House Democrats to immediately request President Trump's tax returns from the Treasury Department, after some lawmakers suggested that the request would likely be made soon.
Tax March and Stand Up America said that they are hosting a "national day of action" for Tuesday, when constituents will urge Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee to publicly demand that the panel's chairman, Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.), immediately ask for Trump's tax returns.
"Chairman Neal has run out of excuses. He's had over two years of the Trump presidency to prepare for this moment, and his inaction on Trump's tax returns is a disservice to the American people," said Stand Up America President Sean Eldridge said in a statement. The Hill's Naomi Jagoda tells us more about the battle here.
Tuesday's call-in to Democratic lawmakers comes two weeks after Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.), a senior Ways and Means Committee member, predicted that Neal would send the request to Treasury within a couple of weeks. Pascrell said at the time that the timeline was his personal prediction.
Top Trump economist: Tax cuts powering economy despite global slowdown: The top White House economist on Tuesday said President Trump's efforts to cut taxes and regulations will help power the U.S. economy through a broader global slowdown.
Kevin Hassett, chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers (CEA), told reporters Tuesday that the 2017 tax-cut bill had created "a fundamental shift" in the economy that would bring years of strong growth and job gains.
"There's ample room for optimism," Hassett said during a Tuesday conference call to discuss the CEA's 2019 economic report to the president.
"We're pretty confident that the momentum that we're carrying into this year will continue." I explain why Hassett is so optimistic here.
U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) grew 2.9 percent in 2018 and 3.1 percent between the fourth quarters of 2018 and 2017. The annualized level was just short of Trump's 3 percent goal but several notches higher than most public and private sector projections.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), Federal Reserve and a slew of private sector economists had projected GDP to rise closer to 2.5 to 2.7 percent.
Critics of the Trump administration and the tax bill instead credit policies enacted by former President Obama for the strong economy, likening the tax bill to little more than a sugar rush.
Hassett attributed the increase to higher levels of business spending, infrastructure investment and purchases of capital equipment, which he said would boost the U.S. economy even as Europe and China appear close to recessions.
Business investment in machines, tools and other productivity-boosting equipment reached $300 billion in 2018, $26.4 billion more than the pre-2017 trend, according to CEA.
The U.S. added 215,000 machine manufacturing jobs in 2018, which CEA said was 301,000 more jobs than the pre-2017 trend. The CEA also cited higher levels of commercial and industrial loans held by banks since Trump signed a bipartisan bill to loosen post-crisis lending restrictions, capital requirements and other stability mandates.
Watchdog warns 'rosy economic assumptions' permeate Trump's budget proposal: President Trump's 2020 spending proposal used overly optimistic economic projections that would have resulted in a balanced budget after 25 years without any of the cuts to non-defense programs put forth by the administration, according to a new analysis.
The White House budget request for fiscal year 2020 calls for deep cuts to non-defense spending, as well as massive reductions to entitlement programs like Medicare, citing the need to lower the deficit. The approach would balance the budget after 15 years, instead of the 10-year frame typically used in federal budgeting, the White House estimated.
But an analysis published Tuesday by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a group that advocates for deficit reduction, found that the budget would be balanced after 25 years, even if the 2017 GOP tax-cut law were extended, based solely on the administration's high-growth estimates.
"Rosy economic assumptions – not serious spending cuts – deserve most of the credit," the analysis found.
The Hill's Niv Elis explains why.

Hero with a Thousand Faces-Joesph Campbell
is a book that offers a theory of a "universal mono-myth" it was first published in the late 60s, and is the framework Lucas built the Star-wars saga, precipitating 40 years of continuous publication as storytellers in any format seek its guidance. Interestingly, it is written by a psychologist, not a anthropologist, and sits in strange literature category. Sometimes its a history book -this story, that story, how it ties into Freud, Jung, zeus, buddah, Jesus, Moses, king arthur, and God. I read it in preparation for the 5 marching band shows I'm supposed to be writing, so I can get a feel for a proper story arc.
Oh, and I went ahead and annotated the quotes, hopefully it'll explain why I included them.
104- There can be no question: the psychological dangers through which earlier generations were guided by the symbols and spiritual exercises of their mythological and religious inheritance, we today (insofar as we are unbelievers, or , if believers, in so fare as our inherited beliefs fail to represent the real problems of contemporary life) must face alone, or , at best with only tentative, impromptu, and not oftern very effective guidance. This is our problem as modern, "enlightened" individuals, for whom all gods and devils have been rationalized out of exitence."
I was really surprised at how often Campbell comments on the post-modern/modern dilemma: secular humanism doesn't allow myths, which leaves the world cold, and people without a framework in which to place themselves…so we go crazy, and have to hire psychologists and counselors, who replace the Shaman/priest of old with "science." (oh good, it has numbers, the moderns will be happy) Ironically, Freud names his disorders after greek and roman mythology….
"But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. 30Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31Do to others as you would have them do to you.
32"If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. 33And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. 34And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. 35But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
Okay. Not a big deal, some nice verses from Jesus telling us to be nice to each other. Campbell contrasts the above verses with this gem of a letter, overripe with 'christian' concepts and phrases… (For those of you who are interested in "honoring the christian heritage of America," this may come as quite a shock.)
In the year of our lord 1682
To ye aged and beloved, Mr. John Higginson:
There be now at sea a ship called Welcome, which has on board 100 or more of the heretics and malignants called Quakers, with W. Penn, who is the chief scamp, at the head of them. The Gerneral Court ahs accordingly given sacred orders to Master Malachi Huscott, of the brig Porpoise, to waylay the said Welcome slyly as near the Cape of Coad as may be, and make captive the said Penn and his ungodly crew, so the at the Lord may be glorified and not mocked on the soil of this new country with the heathen worship of these people. Much spoil can be made of selling the whole lot to Barbadoes, where slaves fetch good prices in rum and sugar and we shall not only do the Lord great good by punishing he wicked, but we shall make great good for His minister and people.
Yours in the bowels of Christ

Wow. Awesome guys! So England really WAS a Christian Nation! Right? Look at all those great phrases! Yikes. Obviously, Penn either wasn't abducted, or got out or we wouldn't have PENNSylvania.
The tea ceremonies of Japan are conceive in the spirit of the Taoist earthly paradise. The tear room, called "the abode of fancy" is a n ephemeral structure built to enclose a moment of poetic intuition. Called too "the abode of vacancy," it is devoid of ornamentation. Temporarily it contains a single picture or flower-arrangement. The teahouse is called the "abode of the unsymmetrical" the unsymmetrical suggests movement; the purposely unfinished leaves a vacuum into which the imagination of the beholder can pour.
The guest approaches by the garden path, and must stoop through the low entrance. He makes obeisance to the picture or flower arrangement, to the singing kettle , and takes his place on the floor. The simplest object, framed by the controlled simplicity of the tea house, stands out in mysterious beauty, its silence holding the secret of temporal existence. Each guest is permitted to complete the experience in relation to himself. The members of the company thus contemplate the universe in miniature, and become aware of their hidden fellowship with the immortals"
This I thought was fascinating, in light of Siedell's observations about Postmodern art being concerned with creating spaces, transendant moments, and objects for contemplation. The stillness and mild absurdity reminds me of both the Rothko chapel and the Gober 2001 Chicago installation. The creation of experience, rather than object…(or objects created to serve an experience).
The agony of breaking through personal limitations is the agony of spiritual growth. Art, literature, myth and cult, philosophy, and ascetic disciplines are instruments to help the individual past his limiting horizons into spheres of ever-expanding realizaaion. As he crosses threshold after threshold, conquering dragon after dragon, the stature of the divinity that he summons to his highest wish increases, until it subsumers the cosmos. Finally, the mind breaks the bounding sphere of the scosmos to a realization transcending all experiences of form-all symbolizations, all divinities: a realization of the ineluctable void.
Pretty much his psychology-unified-myth theory in a nutshell. I'm pretty sure this guy was drinking the eastern-religion kool-aid.
Okay- here's the story arc he finally gives us towards the end of the book:
1) The mythological hero, setting forth from his commonday hut or castle, is lured, carried away, or else voluntarily proceeds, to the threshold of adventure.
2) There he encounters a shadow presence that guards the passage.
3) The hero may defeat or conciliate this power and go alive into the kingdom of the dark(brother-battle, dragon-battle, offering, harm), or be slain by theopponent and descend in death (dismemberment, crucifixion).
4) Beyond the threshold, then, the hero journeys through a world of unfamiliar yet strangely intimate forces, some of which severely threaten him (tests), some of which give magical aid (helpers).
5) When he arrives at the nadir of the mythological round, he undergoes a sureme ordeal and gains his reward.
6) The triumph may be represented as the hero's sexual union with the goddess-mother of the world (sacred marriage), his recognition by the father-creator (father atonement), his own divinization (apotheosis), or again-if the powers have remained unfriendly to him-his theft of the boon he came to gain (bride-theft, fire-theft); intrinsically it is an expansion of consciousness and therewith of being (illumination, transfiguration, freedom).
7) The final work is that of the return. If the powers have blessed the hero, he now sets forth under thir protection (emissary; if no, he flees and is pursued (transformation flight, obstacle flight). At the return hreshold the transcendental pwers must remain behind; the hero re-emerges from the kingdom of the dread (return, resurrection)
8) The boon that he brings resores the world (elixir)
256- symbolic expression is given to the unconscious desires, fears, and tensions that underlie the conscious patterns of human behavior. Mythology, in other words, is psychology misread as biography; history and cosmology.
Back to the psycholgy again.. myths serve the psych. needs of the community that keeps them. This reminds me of the new mega-church book that talks about how these church grow primarily by meeting the psychological needs of their attenders.
We must understand that they (mythological figures) are not only symptoms of the unconscious, but also controlled and intended statements of certain spiritual principles, which have remained as constant throughout the course of human history as the form and nervous structure of the human physique itself.
All myths are universal, the need for all myths is darn-near eternal. I included these quotes because I think it sets up the author perspective pretty well.
The problem of mankind today, therefore, is precisely the opposite to that of men in comparatively stable periods of those great coordinating mythologies which now are known as lies. Then all meaning was in the group, in the great anonymous forms, none in the self-expressive individual; today no meaning is in the group- none in the world: all is in the individual. But there the meaning is absolutely unconscious. One does not know toward what one moves. One does not know by what one is propelled. The lines of communication between the conscious and the unconscious zones of the human psyche have been cut, and we have been split in two.
The hero-deed to be wrought is not today what it was in the century of Galileo. Where there was darkness, now there is light; but also, where light was, there now is darkness. The modern here-deed must be that of questing to bring to light again the lost Atlantis of the coordinated soul.
Boom. His conclusion. I point again to the observation that successful organizations are growing by meeting the psychological needs of their adherents. Look at the nerve Obama touched in his supporters, or Biggest Loser, or the Starbucks-third-place phenomena.
Kay. I'm done with the italics, there's no more quotes so I haven't confused you. I'm not sure Campbells call to unifying our souls has been successful. I'm not sure individualist individuals seeking their own self-actualization has necessarily benefited society. I have plenty of artsy friends (myself included) who spend an inordinate amount of time trying to figure themselves out, but like any small g god, it never seems to be placated, nor does the search itself seem to fruitful in other regards. I would tend to see the "the dissatisfaction in my life is because I have not unified the two halves of my soul" as a lie and distraction. File it under the heading "dying to self." Campbell makes a good point these heros have to die to themselves (sometimes literally), or sacrifce to proceed to their goal/journey/save the world. I think our post-modern envy of pre-modern cultures is just grass is greener, and ultimately misplaced. We're excited they lived in community, ate organic food, married young and kept family bonds; they'd be excited we have indoor plumbing, washing machines, dishwashers and the like. In short, we're jealous that they had peace in parts of their lives in which we have tension and frustration, and vice versa. Which is really the eternal problem of comparison, I don't really ever value what it is I already have. I'm amazed by what You have, I covet it for my life, and I'm completely oblivious to the things in my life which You and Others are secretly coveting in mine.
We do this as individuals, families, communities, regions and even nations.
If we could take campbells work and see ourselves as the heros who need to die to self in order to succeed, I think it will be much more fruitful for everyone.

Allison Tripney
Head of Community
Our guest this episode is Allison Tripney, Head of Community at Leicester City Football Club.
Following a career in teaching Allison initially built a career in the football community, creating education programmes and initiatives that encouraged learning using football clubs as the basis for selected young people.
During the episode we discuss Allison's early life and career and the innovative approaches and programmes the club is taking to engage and impact young people.
With school, it's one system, and we're trying to push everyone through one system. But we know that everyone's different, and that system might work for some, but it certainly doesn't work for all.
I think we've seen more footballers themselves now taking the stage on that and really using football as a force for societal change.
My plan was growth with quality.
It's actually as important to know what you're not going to do as it is to know what you are going to do.
Ultimately, particularly in community, it's all about the people.


Lieutenant Colonel Sir Ernest Edward 'Weary' Dunlop AC, CMG, OBE, KStJ (12 July, 1907 to 2 July, 1993) was an Australian surgeon who was renowned for his leadership whilst being held prisoner by the Japanese during World War II. He was born in Wangaratta, Victoria, Australia.
'.. It is amongst the terrible backdrop of war where he is most vividly remembered. For it was as a surgeon on the infamous Burma Railway where he carved his legendry status. In the face of unspeakable cruelty he refused to break - providing care, hope and humour to thousands of sick and dying soldiers. Dignity is difficult to find among starvation and disease. Yet Weary not only displayed great dignity, he unselfishly shared it with those who had nothing left. Upon returning from the war, Weary dedicated his life to caring for former prisoners of war..' (pamphlet issued with 1995 proof coin set issued by Royal Australian Mint).

Q: Integrals of a function and its absolute value Is the following proposition true?
Let $f(x)$ be a real-valued function defined on $[a,b] \subset \mathbb{R}$, and suppose that the integral,
$$
I = \int_a^b f(x) dx,
$$
exists in the sense of Riemann integral. If  $0< |I| < \infty$, then
$$
0< \frac{1}{|I|}\int_a^b |f(x)| dx<\infty.
$$

A: The absolute value of a Riemann integrable function is Riemann integrable, so $\int_a^b |f(x)| \ dx < \infty$. In addition, you must have $0<\int_a^b |f(x)| \ dx$, for if the integral is zero then $|f(x)|=0$ almost everywhere on $[a,b]$, which would imply $\int_a^b f(x) \ dx = 0$ (i.e., $|I|=0$). Since $0<|I|<\infty$ as well, you do indeed get the result that $0<\frac{1}{|I|}\int_a^b|f(x)| \ dx <\infty$.

Drumstick is one of my favourite vegetable. It gives very good flavor when added to sambar and other kuzhambu varieties. Today I am posting a side dish recipe using drumstick. The consistency of this drumstick masala is neither dry nor gravy. Drumstick will be coated with some masala sticking over it. It is very tasty and simple to prepare.
Serve for white rice with sambar, rasam or curd.
Finely chop onion. Chop drumsticks into medium pieces.
Grind coconut with given ingredients.
Heat a kadai over medium heat. Add oil.
Temper with mustard seeds. When it starts spluttering add urad dal.
Saute for 30 seconds. Add onion and curry leaves.
Cook for about a min or until onions become soft.
Add Cooked drumstick. Add if there is remaining water with drumstick.
Let it cook in low heat for 2-3 min or until it starts boiling.
You can skip cooking drumstick separately. Instead add drumstick, turmeric, salt and water after onion becomes soft.
Hey! I wanted to let you know that I nominated you for the Mystery Blogger Award. You can check it out on my blog – http://wp.me/p8yNxk-1Ki. Congratulations!
Sounds so flavorful! Love it!!
Love drumsticks in any dish! Interesting to team it with fennel! Lovely share!

Track of the Day: 49th & Main - 'Up To Something'

Kate Brayden
49th & Main recently tore up the Forbidden Fruit and Longitude stages. Catch the pair at Indiependence on July 31st.
Following previous single 'Human Condition', Kilkenny duo 49th & Main have shared their third single on Ninja Tune imprint Counter Records, the catchy alt-electronic pop offering 'Up To Something'.
Paddy King and Ben O'Sullivan have already gained attention with 20 million streams amassed on Spotify since 2020. The new cut is taken from their debut EP called Must Be Nice, which is slated for release on July 22nd.
Kicking off with a pounding drum beat and an infectious bassline, 'Up To Something' quickly continues along the party comedown path with groovy melodies and O'Sullivan's sleek indie-pop production.
"She thinks I must be something / 'cause on weekdays I'm up 'til 6am just doing cocaine / And you keep calling me home / feel like breaking my phone," the track starts, calling out someone who questions their behaviour.
Opening the duo's EP, 'Up To Something' is all about creative instrumentation and lyrics speaking about their current headspace. 49th & Main said: "This is a long night, forgotten conversations and empty wallets kinda tune that you just can't help dance to".

The pair first met in school and after growing close, they began working on music together during a particularly warm summer, with O'Sullivan dabbling with acoustics and how to record King's guitar.
Once in Vancouver (just off 49th & Main street), O'Sullivan found himself unable to find work; so whilst King and his friends went to work at stores and building sites across the city, he would spend his days producing and writing music for Paddy to jump on when he returned.
O'Sullivan then developed aplastic anaemia: a rare blood disease which prevented his bone marrow from producing enough new blood cells, making him chronically fatigued and prone to infections. The musician was officially diagnosed and began treatment which left him heavily immunocompromised when he came home from Canada, living between the attic of his family home or a triple-sealed hospital room.
49th & Main released debut single 'Party Alone' three months later with former classmate TraviS before their debut project 'Neon Palm Trees' arrived. Excellent efforts like 'Streetlights', 'I Want You' and 'Good Life' have clocked up huge streaming numbers on Spotify.
The band recently signed a global record deal with independent label Counter Records, an imprint of Ninja Tune - home to Bonobo, Bicep, Thundercat, Kelis and Black Country, New Road. Paradigm have come on board to support their live journey.

Live Report: Hip-hop stars lead the way in explosive first day of Longitude Festival celebrations


Last weekend, little old Eugene, Oregon enjoyed a bit of a mid-winter thaw with a cozy gathering of the beer community at the Lane County Fairgrounds for the annual KLCC Brew Fest. KLCC, our local public radio station, took over the festival in 2001, and it has since grown into one of their largest annual fund raising efforts with attendance approaching 5000 and almost 60 breweries pouring over 100 beers.
Strains of bluegrass music, my favorite kind of drinking music, drifted out the double doors, taunting me, as I waited my turn in line. I did a double take as I was handed my commemorative sample glass and two drink tickets. Two tickets? Oh no, this will never do, I immediately purchased another dozen tickets. That's a good starting point. The best thing about having a radio station put on a beer festival is the quality of music they provide. The music I was enjoying, the Ashleigh Flynn Band, and the next day's band, The Essentials, are great and their music adds a lot to the festival experience.
Personal tradition dictates I try the collaboration ales before venturing out to find new beers to add to my list. This year's collaboration recipe was Sasquatch Strong Ale. Beer enthusiasts from the Northwest are familiar with the brewer Glen Falconer whose nickname was Sasquatch. Glen's reign as brewmaster at Eugene's Wild Duck Brewery produced a popular list of creative beers that were elevated to legendary status with his tragic death in 2002 followed a few years later by the demise of the Wild Duck Brewery.
Since Glen's passing, a foundation was created in his name to help aspiring brewers with a scholarship fund that designates two worthy candidates each year and provides them an opportunity for a brewing science education from the Siebel Institute of Technology. One of Glen's most popular creations was Sasquatch Strong Ale. This year each of Eugene's breweries created their own version of Sasquatch.
Tracktown Sasquatch: (Eugene City Brewery, Rogue) Good chestnut color, a sweet brown sugar nose. Excellent hops to malt balance. I could drink this on a regular basis. Not as powerful and in-your-face as the original.
Oakshire Sasquatch: Good color and head. A bit more hops in the nose and the mouth compared to the Tracktown, but still very drinkable.
Ninkasi Imperial Sasquatch: Of course Jamie HAD to make an Imperial. Beautiful dark appearance topped by a wonderful soapy tan head. As with many of Ninkasi's beers, it was a hop heads delight and a bit of a face-tweaker for me, very bitter. Probably the closest to what I remember my first taste of Sasquatch Strong Ale at Wild duck was like.
Steelhead Sasquatch: I haven't had a chance to try many of Brewer Ted Fagan's beers so this was his chance to impress me, nice job Ted. Dark amber pour with excellent head retention. Good balance with plenty of floral hop notes. Nice clean finish. Guess I need to make a trip over the Steelhead and try more of Ted's work.
High Street Sasquatch: Something bad happened here…nuff said.
Results: Ninkasi Sasquatch was most like the original Wild Duck Sasquatch Strong Ale, but I could drink more of the other three. Back to the brewery High Street.
All right, now that I'd gotten that out of the way it was time to work the list and see what's new and wonderful in the world of the KLCC beer list. Most of the beers were standards I'd had many times (the curse of being around beer all the time) but I did find some new brews to try and a couple new favorites for my repeat sheet. I'm not going to try and give you tasting notes on every beer. That's hard for me and boring for you. Taste is so subjective anyway. Here are a few notes on some interesting new brews and brewers I found at the fest.
Cumbrian Moor (Brewers Union Local 180): This was the only station pulling cask conditioned ale using beer engines and the new style plastic kegs. This was my first taste of Brewers Union Local 180. They opened in August 2008 45 miles outside of Eugene in the little mountain community of Oakridge. I heard they'd had some trouble setting up and had to fabricate something on the spot to support the beer engines because the tables were too flimsy to mount to. I also heard Ted Sobel, the brewer, was in the cast of a local theater production in Oakridge the festival nights. So, word has it, he had to make the hour drive back to Oakridge each night, go onstage and die (that was his part), then rush back to Eugene for the festival. That's a Shakespearian level of dedication. All of Ted's English-style ales are cask conditioned and the Cumbrian Moor was a dark brown, barely translucent pour, the beer was soft in the mouth and at the perfect temperature, I believe it was barrel-aged in a whiskey barrel but the notes seemed closer to sherry with a clean, dry finish. Very drinkable, I think I'll have to run up the hill and sample some more of what Ted's got brewing.
Le Pelican Brun (Pelican Brewery): Pelican brews seldom let me down and this beer was my favorite of the festival. Lots going on in this Belgian style ale. It pours deep reddish brown. A nice yeasty nose lets your tongue know something different is coming. A rich, slightly sour, combination of coffee and caramel malts with notes of burnt brown sugar and coriander fill your mouth and it ends with a lingering finish. Very nice!
Overcast Espresso Stout (Oakshire Brewing): The pour is black and generates a nice brown head. The aroma is malt, molasses, caramel, and coffee with just a hint of hops. The taste is freshly ground coffee, malt, and maybe licorice. Kind of a dry finish, but excellent.
Brown Eyes Brown (Silver Moon Brewery): I met Tyler Reichert, head brewer/owner of Silver Moon Brewing way back when he was all dreams and a little homebrew shop in Bend, Oregon. His attendance at the festival was due to a bit of last minute serendipity so he was pouring from an assortment of his new bottled brews he was delivering to the local Market of Choice. Brown Eyes Brown is an American Brown Ale. Since brown ales are my favorite I had to give it a try. The pour was deep chestnut in color. The taste was sweet molasses, malty and a little tart with a big hop finish. Interesting…Not your regular brown ale…I'll have to try it again…soon.
I didn't sample everything by a long shot at KLCC. There were many other stellar beers, like Block 15's Aboriginale, and Wakonda's Black Elk Stout, etc, etc, etc, but I'm only allotted so much space for my ramblings. At 9pm the festival hall was getting a bit crowded and loud so we decided it was a good time to finish up. I rewarded my photographer, Bonne, with a glass of Young's Double Chocolate Stout (delicious) followed by a sample of Rogue Chocolate Stout (excellent as usual). Then we cleansed our palettes with a couple pours of 21st Amendment Hell or High Watermelon Wheat (ahhhh, a perfect finish). I love my job. Next weekend, the Confluence Beer Festival on the Oregon Coast. See you there.
