Band:TEAM SLEEP
Album:WOODSTOCK SESSIONS VOL. 4
Label:BURNSIDE
Genre:Alt Rock
Team Sleep consists of a group of friends that includes members of such groups as The Deftones, Crosses, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Marilyn Manson within their ranks. The group's 2005 selftitled debut album captivated the world with its experimental and at times unclassifiable amalgamation of musical styles. While reception for Team Sleep was positive, the individual projects of the members didn't leave much time for a proper follow up. However in October of 2014, close to ten years after their debut, Chino Moreno, Chuck X, CrookOne, Rick Verret, Todd Wilkinson and Gil Sharone descended on at Applehead Studios (Coheed & Cambria, Chiodos ) in upstate NY.
The resulting record "Woodstock Sessions Vol 4" includes powerful reworkings of their classic material as well as official versions of songs heretofore only appearing in demo form.

Band:CRUCIAMENTUM
Album:CHARNEL PASSAGES
Genre:Death Metal
With just a demo, a split, and an EP released under their repertoire, UK death metal band CRUCIAMENTUM already had a reputation as one of the most prominent death metal prospects today. With not even a full-length album released to their name, the band have already brought an awareness to the genre akin to what their counterparts in DEAD CONGREGATION and GRAVE MIASMA (in which CRUCIAMENTUM share two members with) have brought forth within the modern age of death metal as one of the leading bands within the new era. Even though at the time, with just their "Convocation Of Crawling Chaos" demo from 2009 (recognized as one of the best demos of modern day death metal) and their "Engulfed In Desolation" EP from 2011 under their belt, the band were quite active on the live front respectively. Having done several European and U.S. tours, played many exclusive shows, and played notable festivals such as Hell's Pleasure and Killtown in Europe and Maryland Deathfest, Chaos In Tejas, Rites Of Darkness (twice), and Martyrdoom in the U.S. All this without the band having even released a full-length album. Following a slight hiatus, CRUCIAMENTUM would inevitably resurrect itself to finally deliver their debut full-length album "Charnel Passages". Their mightiest work yet, "Charnel Passages" has already been deemed as one of the most anticipated death metal albums of the year. "Charnel Passages" is true dark death metal majesty in every sense of the word and will stand as the death metal monument of 2015. With dark atmosphere, pummeling brutality, and skillful playing all rendered with a clear yet massive, warm, and natural sounding production, "Charnel Passages" will make its impact on the death metal scene unlike any album in the genre released this year.
Band:PISSGRAVE
Album:SUIICIDE EUPHORIA
Philadelphia, PA's PISSGRAVE are a new brutal and raw death metal band who have only one demo cassette, which sold out pretty much immediately, released under their name prior to their debut full-length album "Suicide Euphoria". They have created a bit of a buzz in the American death metal underground, especially after supporting DEAD CONGREGATION on a short U.S. tour in the fall of 2014 which showcased the band's devastating live set.
With their debut full-length "Suicide Euphoria", PISSGRAVE have created one of the sickest, rawest, most depraved and violent death metal releases of the year. Sounding unlike anything going on in death metal today, PISSGRAVE will reveal themselves as one of the most promising prospects in underground death metal today.
Band:SOFT MACHINE
Album:DROP - LP
Label:SIREENA
Genre:Prog Rock
In the early seventies West Germany was a great touring area for British rock bands. Here bands like Steamhammer, East of Eden or Curved Air got almost even greater success than in their homeland. This also included the Canterbury scene jazz rock band Soft Machine, the band was announced high, especially in college towns. These recordings were recorded during the tour in Germany in 1971. The tracks are known pieces from the legendary albums of the band "Third" (1970) and "Fifth" (1972), but the sound here is very dynamic and therefore novel. First of all the release shows an even greater devotion to jazz and free jazz. The quality of free-spirited saxophonist Elton Dean together with the influence of the brilliant drummer Phil Howard is outstanding. Most of the titles come from the pen of mastermind Mike Ratledge, who as always makes a convincing figure behind his Rhodes piano, and Hugh Hopper on bass is an institution in Soft Machine - been microstructure. These four guys supply an incredible stage performance, full of variety, Tempi- and chord changes, intensity and playfulness. Excursions in free jazz realm certainly delight as the successful versions of Soft Machine - classics like "All White", "Slightly All The Time" or "As If" - as examples only. A captivating sound document, which was prepared by Sireena sound guru Marlon Klein meticulously for a release on vinyl. The album is released, as we know it from Sireena, in a limited edition in colored 180 gram heavy-weight White vinyl.

Band:THE OPTIC NERVE
Album:PENELOPE TUESDAY
Label:STATE RECORDS
Format:VINYL 7"
Although born from the '80s New York garage scene, the Optic Nerve had nothing whatsoever in common with the movement other than their single-minded idealism to act as if the '80s and the synthesized music that surrounded them was not happening. Rather than using the blaring fuzz tones and screaming "put down" anthems of the garage rock revival, they took the jangling motifs of the Byrds, the Beatles, and a hint of the mid-'60s protest singers to create a sound that, if spawned in 1965, may have brought them success. In the mid-'80s however, '60s-styled folk-rock was not a huge seller—even with fans of the neo-garage scene. Acts like the Fuzztones, Cynics and Lyres may have achieved cult underground status, releasing a number of records between them and touring across Europe, but the Optic Nerve only released two singles during their brief existence and rarely played outside of Brooklyn.
Bobby Belfiore (main songwriter and singer) formed the nucleus of the band in 1985. Over their two-year tenure, a number of musicians went in and out of their ranks. However, lead guitarist and harmony vocalist Tony Matura was a mainstay, and the combination of his and Belfiore's sweet harmonies and folk-rock jangling gave the Optic Nerve their distinct quality. In 1993 and 1994, both Screaming Apple and Get Hip released posthumous albums, consisting of demos recorded throughout the mid- to late '80s.
In mid January 2005, Bobby and Tony got together with Tom Ward [Gravedigger V, Nashville Ramblers] on bass and Mike Linn [Iron Gates] on drums to record an album's worth of material, which, for a variety of reasons, never saw the light of day. Fast forward 10 years, and State Records are very pleased to be able to offer 2 of the best cuts from that proposed album, and what a pair of gems they are! 'Penelope Tuesday' is instant summer hit material, a winning combination of the band's trademark catchy riffs and joyous vocals, propelled by a bouncing, upbeat rhythm. The flipside, 'Here To Stay' shows the introspective, moodier side of the 'Nerve, with a fragile, laid back approach— sparse, uncluttered, perfect. M

Band:FRENCH BOUTIK
Album:MIEUX COMME CA
Label:COPASE DISQUES
Format:VINYL
Following up on the heels of two stunning previous EP's, Mieux Comme Ça is the forthcoming double 7" vinyl outing from the Paris-based "Pop Moderniste" specialists known as French Boutik. Mieux Comme Ca features 3 brand new songs recorded and mixed at Yeah!Yeah!Yeah! Studios in Hamburg, plus the vinyl release of Tiptoes, French Boutik's unlikely Madness adaptation, originally recorded for the Specialized 3: Mad Not Cancer cd compilation.
Mieux Comme Ca sees the Boutik exploring new musical territory, in keeping with their signature style that's both familiar and brand new ...intelligently crafted songs inspired by the 60s but not stuck in them ... sounds that are both fun and moving ... breaking through language barriers and touching listeners, both francophone and francophobic, worldwide. That unique style made its debut on French Boutik's first two copaseDisques releases: Les Chats de Gouttière (2012) and Ici Paris (2013), which both received fantastic reviews.

Band:VARIOUS ARTISTS
Album:Ayahuasca Cumbias Psicodelicas Vol 1
Label:LION PRODUCTIONS
What have we here? At first glance it seems like the missing volume from our Groove Club series, which it so easily could have been! In short, it's a stunning collection—which took more than fifteen years to put together—of tracks that combine cumbia with psychedelic rock. Starting in the late 1960's, there was a boom of tropical music in Peru, both in Lima and the provinces. The music called 'cumbia peruana' merged this tropical sound with that of psychedelic rock. Peculiar aspects of traditional Colombian cumbia were mixed with electric (often fuzz) guitar, played over native Andean and jungle rhythms; this combination provoked an explosion of original musical styles: an instrument to lead the way, usually from the introduction of the song; over this, hypnotic layers of keyboards or guitar with wah wah, and simple bass-lines; to top it off, syncopated rhythms from percussion instruments such as bongos, congas, huiros, cymbals, timbales, among others, often played at breakneck speed, to drive the song forward. Simple, funky, effective. In the end, it's like a sonic cousin to Nigerian music: these musicians liked guitar, they had a fondness for echo, and they loved a murky high-octane jam. Extremely limited mini-LP sleeve disc with 20- page bi-lingual, glossy, color booklet enclosed with photos and some background info on the bands and the development of the Cumbias Psicodélicas sound. Like all Lion/Repsychled titles, this is available exclusively worldwide from Lion Productions and our friends.LTD to 200 copies.

Las Vegas Sands (LVS) Down 0.6% Since Last Earnings Report: Can It Rebound?
It has been about a month since the last earnings report for Las Vegas Sands (LVS). Shares have lost about 0.6% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.
Will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is Las Vegas Sands due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at the most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important drivers.
Las Vegas Sands Misses Q3 Earnings & Revenues
Las Vegas Sands reported third-quarter 2021 results, wherein both earnings and revenues missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. While the top line missed the consensus mark for the third straight quarter, the bottom line lagged the same for the second consecutive quarter. However, both the metrics improved on a year-over-year basis. The company's results in the quarter were impacted by the travel related restrictions in both Macau and Singapore.
Earnings & Revenue Discussion

In the prior-year quarter, the company had reported an adjusted loss of 59 cents per share. During the quarter under review, interest expenses (net of amounts capitalized) amounted to $157 million compared with $134 million in the prior-year quarter.
Quarterly revenues of $857 million missed the consensus mark of $1,310 million. However, the figure improved from $446 million reported in the prior-year quarter driven by improved occupancy rates and RevPAR.
Asian Operations
Las Vegas Sands' Asia business includes the following resorts:
The Venetian Macao
During the third quarter, net revenues from Venetian Macao were $253 million compared with $68 million in the prior-year quarter. The upside can primarily be attributed to a rise in casino, rooms, food and beverage and mall revenues.

In biology, a species is, loosely speaking, a group of related organisms that share a more or less distinctive form and are capable of interbreeding. As defined by Ernst Mayr, species are "groups of actually or potentially interbreeding natural populations which are reproductively isolated from other such groups" (however, see definitions of species below).
In scientific classification, a species is designated by a binomial written in italic text and consisting of the capitalized genus name followed by a unique descriptor. It is the whole binomial that is the species name, not just the second term of the binomial. For example, the name of our species is Homo sapiens.

Definitions of species
The definition of a species given above as taken from Mayr, is somewhat idealistic. Since it assumes sexual reproduction, it leaves the term undefined for a large class of organisms that reproduce asexually. Biologists frequently do not know whether two morphologically similar groups of organisms are "potentially" capable of interbreeding. Further, there is considerable variation in the degree to which hybridization may succeed under natural and experimental conditions, or even in the degree to which some organisms use sexual reproduction between individuals to breed. Consequently, several lines of thought in the definition of species exist:
A morphological species is a group of organisms that have a distinctive form: for example, we can distinguish between a chicken and a duck because they have different shaped bills and the duck has webbed feet. Species have been defined in this way since well before the beginning of recorded history. Although much criticised, the concept of morphological species remains the single most widely used species concept in everyday life, and still retains an important place within the biological sciences, particularly in the case of plants.
The biological species or isolation species concept identifies a species as a set of actually or potentially interbreeding organisms. This is generally the most useful formulation for scientists working with living examples of the higher taxa like mammals, fish, and birds, but meaningless for organisms that do not reproduce sexually. It distinguishes between the theoretical possibility of interbreeding and the actual likelihood of gene flow between populations. For example, it is possible to cross a horse with a donkey and produce offspring, however they remain separate species—in this case for two different reasons: first because horses and donkeys do not normally interbreed in the wild, and second because the fruit of the union is rarely fertile. The key to defining a biological species is that there is no significant cross-flow of genetic material between the two populations.
A mate-recognition species is defined as a group of organisms that are known to recognise one another as potential mates. Like the isolation species concept above, it applies only to organisms that reproduce sexually.
A phylogenetic or evolutionary or Darwinian species is a group of organisms that shares an ancestor; a lineage that maintains its integrity with respect to other lineages through both time and space. At some point in the progress of such a group, members may diverge from one another: when such a divergence becomes sufficiently clear, the two populations are regarded as separate species.
See also microspecies under apomixis, for species that reproduce without meiosis or mitosis so that each generation is genetically identical to the previous generation.
In practice, these definitions often coincide, and the differences between them are more a matter of emphasis than of outright contradiction. Nevertheless, no species concept yet proposed is entirely objective, or can be applied in all cases without resorting to judgement.
Importance in biological classification
The idea of species has a long history. It is one of the most important levels of classification, for several reasons:
It often corresponds to what lay people treat as the different basic kinds of organism - dogs are one species, cats another.
It is the standard binomial nomenclature (or trinomial nomenclature) by which scientists typically refer to organisms.
It is the only taxonomic level which has empirical content, in the sense that asserting that two animals are of different species is saying something more than classificatory about them.
After thousands of years of use, the concept remains central to biology and a host of related fields, and yet also remains at times ill-defined and controversial.
Implications of assignment of species status
The naming of a particular species should be regarded as a hypothesis about the evolutionary relationships and distinguishability of that group of organisms. As further information comes to hand, the hypothesis may be confirmed or refuted. Sometimes, especially in the past when communication was more difficult, taxonomists working in isolation have given two distinct names to individual organisms later identified as the same species. When two named species are discovered to be of the same species, the older species name is usually retained, and the newer species name dropped, a process called synonymization, or convivially, as lumping. Dividing a taxon into multiple, often new, taxons is called splitting. Taxonomists are often referred to as "lumpers" or "splitters" by their colleagues, depending on their personal approach to recognizing differences or commonalities between organisms (see lumpers and splitters).
Traditionally, researchers relied on observations of anatomical differences, and on observations of whether different populations were able to interbreed successfully, to distinguish species; both anatomy and breeding behavior are still important to assigning species status. As a result of the revolutionary (and still ongoing) advance in microbiological research techniques, including DNA analysis, in the last few decades, a great deal of additional knowledge about the differences and similarities between species has become available. Many populations which were formerly regarded as separate species are now considered to be a single taxon, and many formerly grouped populations have been split. Any taxonomic level (species, genus, family, etc.) can be synonymized or split, and at higher taxonomic levels, these revisions have been still more profound.
From a taxonomical point of view, groups within a species can be defined as being of a taxon hierarchically lower than a species. In zoology only the subspecies is used, while in botany the variety, subvariety, and form are used as well.
The isolation species concept in more detail
In general, for large, complex, organisms that reproduce sexually (such as mammals and birds), one of several variations on the isolation or biological species concept is employed. Often, the distinction between different species, even quite closely related ones, is simple. Horses (Equus caballus) and donkeys (Equus asinus) are easily told apart even without study or training, and yet are so closely related that they can interbreed after a fashion. Because the result, a mule or hinny, is not usually fertile, they are clearly separate species.
But many cases are more difficult to decide. This is where the isolation species concept diverges from the evolutionary species concept. Both agree that a species is a lineage that maintains its integrity over time, that is diagnosably different to other lineages (else we could not recognise it), is reproductively isolated (else the lineage would merge into others, given the chance to do so), and has a working intra-species recognition system (without which it could not continue). In practice, both also agree that a species must have its own independent evolutionary history—otherwise the characteristics just mentioned would not apply. The species concepts differ in that the evolutionary species concept does not make predictions about the future of the population: it simply records that which is already known. In contrast, the isolation species concept refuses to assign the rank of species to populations that, in the best judgement of the researcher, would recombine with other populations if given the chance to do so.
The isolation question
There are, essentially, two questions to resolve. First, is the proposed species consistently and reliably distinguishable from other species? Secondly, is it likely to remain so in the future? To take the second question first, there are several broad geographic possibilities.
The proposed species are sympatric—they occupy the same habitat. Observation of many species over the years has failed to establish even a single instance of two diagnostically different populations that exist in sympatry and have then merged to form one united population. Without reproductive isolation, population differences cannot develop, and given reproductive isolation, gene flow between the populations cannot merge the differences. This is not to say that cross breeding does not take place at all, simply that it has become negligible. Generally, the hybrid individuals are less capable of successful breeding than pure-bred individuals of either species.
The proposed species are allopatric—they occupy different geographical areas. Obviously, it is not possible to observe reproductive isolation in allopatric groups directly. Often it is not possible to achieve certainty by experimental means either: even if the two proposed species interbreed in captivity, this does not demonstrate that they would freely interbreed in the wild, nor does it always provide much information about the evolutionary fitness of hybrid individuals. A certain amount can be inferred from other experimental methods: for example, do the members of population A respond appropriately to playback of the recorded mating calls of population B? Sometimes, experiments can provide firm answers. For example, there are seven pairs of apparently almost identical marine snapping shrimp (Altheus) populations on either side of the Isthmus of Panama, which did not exist until about 3 million years ago. Until then, it is assumed, they were members of the same 7 species. But when males and females from opposite sides of the isthmus are placed together, they fight instead of mating. Even if the isthmus were to sink under the waves again, the populations would remain genetically isolated: therefore they are now different species. In many cases, however, neither observation nor experiment can produce certain answers, and the determination of species rank must be made on a 'best guess' basis from a general knowledge of other related organisms.
The proposed species are parapatric—they have breeding ranges that abut but do not overlap. This is fairly rare, particularly in temperate regions. The dividing line is often a sudden change in habitat (an ecotone) like the edge of a forest or the snow line on a mountain, but can sometimes be remarkably trivial. The parapatry itself indicates that the two populations occupy such similar ecological roles that they cannot coexist in the same area. Because they do not crossbreed, it is safe to assume that there is a mechanism, often behavioral, that is preventing gene flow between the populations, and therefore that they should be classified as separate species.
There is a hybrid zone where the two populations mix. Typically, the hybrid zone will include representatives of one or both of the 'pure' populations, plus first-generation and back-crossing hybrids. The strength of the barrier to genetic transmission between the two pure groups can be assessed by the width of the hybrid zone relative to the typical dispersal distance of the organisms in question. The dispersal distance of oaks, for example, is the distance that a bird or squirrel can be expected to carry an acorn; the dispersal distance of Numbats is about 15 kilometres, as this is as far as young Numbats will normally travel in search of vacant territory to occupy after leaving the nest. The narrower the hybrid zone relative to the dispersal distance, the less gene flow there is between the population groups, and the more likely it is that they will continue on separate evolutionary paths. Nevertheless, it can be very difficult to predict the future course of a hybrid zone; the decision to define the two hybridizing populations as either the same species or as separate species is difficult and potentially controversial.
The variation in the population is clinal—at either extreme of the population's geographic distribution, typical individuals are clearly different, but the transition between them is seamless and gradual. For example, the Koalas of northern Australia are clearly smaller and lighter in colour than those of the south, but there is no particular dividing line: the further south an individual Koala is found, the larger and darker it is likely to be; Koalas in intermediate regions are intermediate in weight and colour. In contrast, over the same geographic range, black-backed (northern) and white-backed (southern) Australian Magpies do not blend from one type to another: northern populations have black backs, southern populations white backs, and there is an extensive hybrid zone where both 'pure' types are common, as are crossbreeds. The variation in Koalas is clinal (a smooth transition from north to south, with populations in any given small area having a uniform appearance), but the variation in magpies is not clinal. In both cases, there is some uncertainty regarding correct classification, but the consensus view is that species rank is not justified in either. The gene flow between northern and southern magpie populations is judged to be sufficiently restricted to justify terming them subspecies (not full species); but the seamless way that local Koala populations blend one into another shows that there is substantial gene flow between north and south. As a result, experts tend to reject even subspecies rank in this case.
The difference question
Obviously, when defining a species, the geographic circumstances become meaningful only if the populations groups in question are clearly different: if they are not consistently and reliably distinguishable from one another, then we have no grounds for believing that they might be different species. The key question in this context, is "how different is different?" and the answer is usually "it all depends".
In theory, it would be possible to recognise even the tiniest of differences as sufficient to delineate a separate species, provided only that the difference is clear and consistent (and that other criteria are met). There is no universal rule to state the smallest allowable difference between two species, but in general, very trivial differences are ignored on the twin grounds of simple practicality, and genetic similarity: if two population groups are so close that the distinction between them rests on an obscure and microscopic difference in morphology, or a single base substitution in a DNA sequence, then a demonstration of restricted gene flow between the populations will probably be difficult in any case.
More typically, one or other of the following requirements must be met:
It is possible to reliably measure a quantitative difference between the two groups that does not overlap. A population has, for example, thicker fur, rougher bark, longer ears, or larger seeds than another population, and although this characteristic may vary within each population, the two do not grade into one another, and given a reasonably large sample size, there is a definite discontinuity between them. Note that this applies to populations, not individual organisms, and that a small number of exceptional individuals within a population may 'break the rule' without invalidating it. The less a quantitative difference varies within a population and the more it varies between populations, the better the case for making a distinction. Nevertheless, borderline situations can only be resolved by making a 'best-guess' judgement.
It is possible to distinguish a qualitative difference between the populations; a feature that does not vary continuously but is either entirely present or entirely absent. This might be a distinctively shaped seed pod, an extra primary feather, a particular courting behaviour, or a clearly different DNA sequence.
Sometimes it is not possible to isolate a single difference between species, and several factors must be taken in combination. This is often the case with plants in particular. In eucalypts, for example, Corymbia ficifolia cannot be reliably distinguished from its close relative Corymbia calophylla by any single measure (and sometimes individual trees cannot be definitely assigned to either species), but populations of Corymbia can be clearly told apart by comparing the colour of flowers, bark, and buds, number of flowers for a given size of tree, and the shape of the leaves and fruit.
When using a combination of characteristics to distinguish between populations, it is necessary to use a reasonably small number of factors (if more than a handful are needed, the genetic difference between the populations is likely to be insignificant and is unlikely to endure into the future), and to choose factors that are functionally independent (height and weight, for example, should usually be considered as one factor, not two).
Historical development of the species concept
In the earliest works of science, a species was simply an individual organism that represented a group of similar or nearly identical organisms. No other relationships beyond that group were implied. Aristotle used the words genus and species to mean generic and specific categories. Aristotle and other pre-Darwinian scientists took the species to be distinct and unchanging, with an "essence", like the chemical elements. When early observers began to develop systems of organization for living things, they began to place formerly isolated species into a context. To the modern mind, many of the schemes delineated are whimsical at best, such as those that determined consanguinity based on color (all plants with yellow flowers) or behavior (snakes, scorpions and certain biting ants).
In the 18th century Carolus Linnaeus classified organisms according to differences in the form of reproductive apparatus . Although his system of classification sorts organisms according to degrees of similarity, it made no claims about the relationship between similar species. At the time, it was still widely believed that there is no organic connection between species, no matter how similar they appear; every species was individually created by God, a view today called creationism. This approach also suggested a type of idealism: the notion that each species exists as an "ideal form". Although there are always differences (although sometimes minute) between individual organisms, Linnaeus considered such variation problematic. He strove to identify individual organisms that were exemplary of the species, and considered other non-exemplary organisms to be deviant and imperfect.
By the 19th century most naturalists understood that species could change form over time, and that the history of the planet provided enough time for major changes. As such, the new emphasis was on determining how a species could change over time. Lamarck suggested that an organism could pass on an acquired trait to its offspring, i.e., the giraffe's long neck was attributed to generations of giraffes stretching to reach the leaves of higher treetops (this well-known and simplistic example, however, does not do justice to the breadth and subtlety of Lamarck's ideas).
Lamarck's most important insight may have been that species can be extraordinarily fluid; his 1809 Zoological Philosophy contained one of the first logical refutations of creationism. With the acceptance of the work of Charles Darwin in the 1860s, Lamarck's view of evolution was quickly eclipsed. It was not until the late 20th century that his work began to be reexamined, and took its place as a fundamental stepping stone to the modern theory of adaptive mutation . Lamarck's long-discarded ideas of the goal-oriented evolution of species, also known the teleological process, have also received renewed attention, particularly by proponents of artificial selection.
Charles Darwin and Alfred Wallace provided what scientists now consider the most powerful and compelling theory of evolution. Basically, Darwin argued that it is populations that evolve, not individuals. His argument relies on a radical shift in perspective from Linnaeus: rather than defining species in ideal terms (and searching for an ideal representative and rejecting deviations), Darwin considered variation among individuals to be natural. He further argued that variation, far from being problematic, actually provides the explanation for the existence of distinct species.
Darwin's work drew on Thomas Malthus' insight that the rate of growth of a biological population will always outpace the rate of growth of the resources in the environment, such as the food supply. As a result, Darwin argued, not all the members of a population will be able to survive and reproduce. Those that did will, on average, be the ones possessing variations—however slight—that make them slightly better adapted to the environment. If these variable traits are heritable, then the offspring of the survivors will also possess them. Thus, over many generations, adaptive variations will accumulate in the population, while counter-adaptive will be eliminated.
It should be emphasized that whether a variation is adaptive or non-adaptive depends on the environment: different environments favor different traits. Since the environment effectively selects which organisms live to reproduce, it is the environment (the "fight for existence") that selects the traits to be passed on. This is the theory of evolution by natural selection. In this model, the length of a giraffe's neck would be explained by positing that proto-giraffes with longer necks would have had a significant reproductive advantage to those with shorter necks. Over many generations, the entire population would be a species of long-necked animals.
In 1859, when Darwin published his theory of natural selection, the mechanism behind the inheritance of individual traits was unknown. Although Darwin made some speculations on how traits are inherited (pangensis ), his theory relies only on the fact that inheritable traits exist, and are variable (which makes his accomplishment even more remarkable.) Although Gregor Mendel's paper on genetics was published in 1866, its significance was not recognized. It was not until 1900 that his work was rediscovered by Hugo de Vries, Carl Correns and Erich von Tschermak, who realised that the "inheritable traits" in Darwin's theory are genes.
The theory of the evolution of species through natural selection has two important implications for discussions of species -- consequences that fundamentally challenge the assumptions behind Linnaeus' taxonomy. First, it suggests that species are not just similar, they may actually be related. Some students of Darwin argue that all species are descended from a common ancestor. Second, it supposes that "species" are not homogeneous, fixed, permanent things; members of a species are all different, and over time species change. This suggests that species do not have any clear boundaries but are rather momentary statistical effects of constantly changing gene-frequencies. One may still use Linnaeus' taxonomy to identify individual plants and animals, but one can no longer think of species as independent and immutable.
The rise of a new species from a parental line is called speciation. There is no clear line demarcating the ancestral species from the descendant species.
Although the current scientific understanding of species suggests there is no rigorous and comprehensive way to distinguish between different species in all cases, biologists continue to seek concrete ways to operationalize the idea. One of the most popular biological definitions of species is in terms of reproductive isolation; if two creatures cannot reproduce to produce fertile offspring, then they are in different species. This definition captures a number of intuitive species boundaries, but nonetheless has some problems, however. It has nothing to say about species that reproduce asexually, for example, and it is very difficult to apply to extinct species. Moreover, boundaries between species are often fuzzy: there are examples where members of one population can produce fertile offspring with a second population, and members of the second population can produce fertile offspring with members of a third population, but members of the first and third population cannot produces fertile offspring. Consequently, some people reject this notion of species.
Richard Dawkins defines two organisms as conspecific if and only if they have the same number of chromosomes and, for each chromosome, both organisms have the same number of nucleotides (The Blind Watchmaker, p. 118).
The classification of species has been profoundly affected by technological advances that have allowed researchers to determine relatedness based on genetic markers. The results have been nothing short of revolutionary, resulting in the reordering of vast expanses of the phylogenetic tree (see also: molecular phylogeny).
A species name can be:
A noun in apposition with the genus: Panthera leo. The words agree in case but not necessarily in gender.
An adjective, agreeing in case and gender with the genus: Allium sativum.
A noun or adjective in the genitive. This is common in parasites: Xenos vesparum, Anaticola phoenicopteri. Also, names of people and places are used in the genitive: Latimeria chalumnae.
There are several common species names, most of which are adjectives. Linnaean taxonomy discusses how the taxon "species" meshes with other classification categories, such as "kingdom" and "genus". See also: race.

Managing Automated Vehicles Enhances Network (MAVEN) project is exploring the paradigm of a hierarchical self-organizing system: multi-level, top-down guidance of self-organizing dynamic platoons of cooperative automated vehicles. To this end the project is developing a generic multi-level system for the guidance of highly automated vehicles, applied to dynamic platoons at signalized intersections and signalized corridors. The system supports decentralized management functions at both vehicle and infrastructure level, with vehicles and traffic systems operating as interacting agents. For these interactions message sets have been developed and contributions to standardization bodies have been submitted for the development of C-ITS communication standards. Safety is another important objective for MAVEN and therefore it is developing Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) techniques to prevent and/or mitigate dangerous situations taking into account Vulnerable Road Users.


We will be sure to let his supervisor know what a great job he did on your phone call. Each day I made sure to drink at least 64 oz of water and light exercise, which usually included twenty minutes of hula hooping. It was the middle of winter, and I was laying on the couch late one night when a Nutrisystem commercial came on TV. One way was by not having tempting foods in the house. You may have read some Nutrisystem bad reviews and you may feel disappointed. I want an apology and someone to tell me what he did was wrong! All I have to do is follow the basic directions for following the plan and eat the Nutrisystem foods.
I am on my 10th day on Nutrisystem and I absolutely love it! The food is great and a lot better tasting than Jenny Craig. I have lost 8 pounds so far and am really excited. I have 65 more to go to reach my goal weight. The website is full of good information and tons of motivation which I need and love!! Anyone can do this diet.
Not only do I not like to cook, I just don't have the time to cook. That's why Nutrisystem really appealed to me when my doctor recommended it.
I have been on the plan for about one month now and have already lost seven pounds which wasn't happening with Bistro MD. I'm happy to say that losing weight has never been easier. It's my review of Nutrisystem, and I believe you will find it one of the most interesting Nutrisystem reviews you will ever read. Does Nutrisystem work for everyone? We are all different and not everyone will have the same results.
I hope that my story might help someone else suffering from weight issues. Growing up, I never had a weight problem. In fact I was always underweight. When I married at age 22, I was only lbs. I wore a size zero! It seemed like every month my weight increased. When my daughter left for college, worry and stress led to my binge eating. I love to eat. Bread is my weakness. In result, every time I would go shopping for new clothes, I found myself reaching for a larger size.
I tried several different diets on my own. I cut out carbs, sweets, and calorie intakes. Other diets were boring and felt like a waste of time since I never felt any changes. I would often kid around with my husband by telling him that he was actually only married to half of me.
I headed to my local Walmart and purchased a Nutrisystem five day weight loss kit which included fifteen entrees and five desserts. I was a bit embarrassed as I walked through the store carrying a box of Nutrisystem. I felt like people were staring as I left the store.
I added healthy snacks between my meals such as fresh avocado, yogurt and mixed nuts. The days got easier. By the third day of sticking to the plan which was a big accomplishment for me , I was already feeling more energy and less bloating. This motivated me to do another week.
Weeks went on and I continued following the Nutrisystem diet. So, how long does Nutrisystem take to work? It works within the first few days. Each day I made sure to drink at least 64 oz of water and light exercise, which usually included twenty minutes of hula hooping. With the help of my Fitbit, I made a goal to get in at least steps in per day. I used the MyfitnessPal app to keep a log of my daily food and calorie intake.
I finally set a goal to lose 30 lbs. I really wanted to get into a new Easter outfit. I was still buying Nutrisystem by the week from Walmart. Does Nutrisystem from Walmart or Costco work? It sure did for me. I looked forward to my next meal.
I felt good and best of all I was losing weight. By now, I knew this was the diet for me and was ready to keep going. I decided to give in and purchase through Nutrisystem. While I was online ordering I chatted with a representative about my plan options and payment concerns. She was very informative as she helped me make my first purchase. Once I became a member, there were tools on the website that helped me achieve my goal.
By the 3rd month, I had lost even more weight and people were starting to notice. I was getting a lot of compliments. I bagged up the clothes and donated them to the local Good Will. The weight loss is real to me now. Let me give you some brief Nutrisystem food reviews. Every month I would log onto my Nutrisystem account. From the menu options, I would pick 28 foods of my choice for each of the four meals which included breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. The choices were easy as I loved almost everything they offer.

gorgeous - I was playing around photographing long grasses last week - fun with depth of field shots.

Dance Traces happens when people paint or draw a footprint map of a dance of their own invention in the public space. Dance Traces are left in the public space for passers-by to try them. Using non-toxic and water soluble materials, the Dance Traces are not permanent.
I conducted this activity in 2008 as part of the Francoforce tour across francophone communities of Canada, presenting musicians, actors, dancers and visual artists.
Click here to read an article by Alexander Varty (Georgia Straight) on the Vancouver Draw Down event in June 2014 where Dance Traces was presented.


Exfoliants remove dead skin cells to reveal the younger skin cells underneath. Exfoliating helps to scrub away dead skin cells to reveal the younger, healthier skin underneath. This becomes especially important as we age since skin is slower to slough off on its own. It slough away dead skin cells, but it also unclogs the oil and dirt that lives in your pores and can cause breakouts. Exfoliating treatments should be used not more than two to three times a week.
Add a small spoon of the baking soda powder to facial cleanser, blend well, and massage like commercial facial scrub. 2-3 times a week as a regular exfoliation schedule is enough. Red or irritated skin indicates overdose, reduce baking soda or exfoliate less frequently.
Sea salt is one of the very potent natural exfoliate. Mix sea salt with water and each morning wash your face with it. Sea salt is not only a natural way to exfoliate your skin, it is also easy on the pocket and easy to get. Moreover, Sea Salt contains sodium that is good for skin.
Oatmeal is one of the natural exfoliant. It can be either ground to create a fine scrub or applied as whole oats. Make your exfoliant with ground Oatmeal, little honey and Voila.
Coffee is an incredible natural exfoliant. To make the scrub, combine 1 tablespoon of ground coffee with 1 tablespoon of water or olive oil.
Corn Flour is another high quality and easily available exfoliant, especially helpful for oily skin. It additionally helps to absorb skin oils.

Town Council Overturns Another Decision by the Historic District Review Board
August 18, 2019 by Leave a Comment
Town Council once again overturned another arrogant decision by the Historic District Review Board (or should that be the Historic District Review Bored?).
Applicants, David Jackson and Stephanie Paige appealed the Historic District Review Board's decision to deny a modification to a Certificate of Appropriateness to allow a parged block foundation for their renovated home.
As anyone that has renovated any of these old houses will tell you, once you crack into it, things will probably change and modifications to the original plans will have to be made. That is the case here.
The applicants originally wanted to use stone facade for the foundation, but that became cost-prohibitive. They wanted to substitute parged block for the stone facade. The HDRB denied the application because they wanted them to use brick instead, even though parged block is approved in the Historic District Guidelines, and exists on several houses in the immediate area.
Councilman Andy Buchholz admonished the Board, "It says right in the guidelines they can use parged block. Who do you think you are? You can't tell them what they can and can't use. I don't understand what you're trying to do here."
The consensus among Town Council was that the HDRB once again severely over-stepped.
"Why are we even here with this?" asked Buchholz.
The decision to reverse the HDRB's decision was unanimous.

Q: ¿Por qué no puedo importar un respaldo de MySQL en un ordenador nuevo? Tengo una web, aplicación online, que funciona perfectamente en un ordenador donde la he creado.
Para su uso, el cliente sube un respaldo cada vez que lo utiliza y lo descarga al dejar de utilizarla. La importación la hace perfecta y la he probado online en varios ordenadores y funciona perfectamente, pero hay un ordenador en el que he instalado todo igual que en el anterior y no me funciona el respaldo. Os adjunto el comando que utilizo.
¿Por qué puede pasar que sólo en este ordenador (con el mismo sistema operativo que los anteriores) sucede esto? Con un archivo *.sql lo importo sin problemas con phpmyadmin, pero a través de el siguiente comando no me funciona:
$command='mysql -h' .$mysqlHostName .' -u' .$mysqlUserName .' --password="'.$mysqlPassword .'" ' .$mysqlDatabaseName .' < ' .$mysqlImportFilename;
exec($command,$output,$worked);
echo('Valor de  exec()...' . $worked);
switch($worked)
{
case 0:
echo 'Los datos del archivo ' .$mysqlImportFilename .' se han importado correctamente a la base de datos ' .$mysqlDatabaseName ;
break;
case 1:
echo 'Se ha producido un error durante la importación. Por favor, compruebe si el archivo está en la misma carpeta que este script. Compruebe también los siguientes datos de nuevo:

Nombre de la base de datos MySQL:	' .$mysqlDatabaseName .'

Nombre de usuario MySQL:	' .$mysqlUserName .'

Contraseña MySQL:	NOTSHOWN

Nombre de host MySQL:	' .$mysqlHostName .'

Nombre de archivo de la importación de MySQL:	' .$mysqlImportFilename .'

Japan's PSP Video on Demand service, P-TV, for the PSP and PlayStation 3 is about to end, according to a statement found on the company's official site. The reason for stopping the service was not mentioned, however, it is likely that the service suffered from poor subscription rates. The service has been around since July 2005 and allowed users to download videos for their PSP.
In related news, Sony isn't abandoning the idea of VOD services. Last week, we reported that SCEE and Sky are teaming up to bring VOD services to UK and Ireland consumers, and will later be made available to Europe. The P-TV service will end on August 30th 2007 at 5 PM.


They are an award winning 600 acre estate fruit winery nestled at the base of Mt. Washington on the outskirts of the beautiful Comox Valley. Their family farm is made up of four generations living and working together to produce product of the highest standard, whether it be wine, fresh market fruit, raw honey or custom milled lumber. Because of their large family and insistence of good quality, they do all the work themselves. Having the generational span from a 1 year old to a 74 year old truly creates a unique living and working environment. While it comes with its occasional challenges, the upsides of having the diversity of opinion and insight far outweigh the difficulty of an occasional disagreement!
Their 80 acres of blackberries are grown on site, making them the largest cultivated blackberry farm in all of Canada. As well, they handle all pollinating in the Vineyard with their own bees which provide them with our unique signature Blackberry Honey and their fine selection of Meads.
Growing more than just blackberries they have an additional 20 acres of both blueberries and raspberries. In all of their operations they strive for organic practices and preservation of the land, air and waterways. In areas where they require a few more hands they employ a crew of labourers out of Mexico. They live on site for seven months of the year and are always an anticipated addition to the spring work force.
Currently, they have four years of wine sales and several domestic and international awards under their belt and with greater experience and insight the are constantly developing and improving their wine style. The experiences we can offer at the winery have also grown in leaps and bounds since opening. With the addition of a wood fired, brick pizza oven, patio bistro and an open "barn" style event space they can accommodate groups for weddings and events of up to 350 people.

This article is about the changes of "The Binding of Isaac: Antibirth". For the main page, see Mulligan.
The Prey runs away from Isaac and periodically spawns Small Leeches. It also spawns 1-2 Small Leeches upon death.
The Mullighoul floats away from Isaac, occasionally spawning a Willo. It also spawns 1-2 Willos upon death. Though they appear to be ghosts, Mullighouls cannot fly over obstacles.
The Bouncer runs away from Isaac. If Isaac gets close, its head inflates and it starts chasing him. If its head is inflated, any non-explosive damage done to it is reduced by 75%, it has a chance to reflect tears, and it releases a chaotic burst of red shots upon death, some of which float in place. Otherwise, it releases four shots in the diagonal directions.

Though not as malicious, using social media is quite similar to hunting. Hunters know where their prey congregates, so that is where they look for them. This idea can be applied to utilizing social media to target your audience. It's a simple idea, but one that many business owners fail to implement.
Build yourself a business page on Facebook, and set up a Twitter account. Social media marketing is a realm on its own, but perhaps the single most significant one to look into. As a more rapid path to social media success, marketing companies now often provide services in this regard.
Search engine optimization (or SEO for short) refers to the process of analyzing and manipulating Internet traffic. It is a matter of setting up your website to make it most visible on search engines, which essentially involves a careful use of keywords. Most customers and Internet surfers do not look past the first page of a search engine's response to a search. You need to make sure yours is on that first page.
Clever and effective use of subject lines, content, and timing will have customers opening your emails, giving them a chance to become aware of your brand, as well as various offers and specials and deals. You must be careful with your email marketing, however, so as not to become what's considered spam. Nonetheless, an informed use of this tactic can pay off tremendously.
The term content marketing refers to a business providing useful content to the customer (often in the form of articles, videos, pictures, how-to's, etc.), at no cost to them whatsoever.
Brand awareness. If you establish yourself online as an expert and authority in your field, demonstrated through your content (which must be related to your business, obviously) this will garner customer trust. They appreciate the value you've provided to them, and will return the favor in the form of profitable action.
Affiliate marketing involves working with another business. Each of you provides a link to the other's websites. If a click on a link results in a purchase, a commission is received. The benefit of this is that your business is being promoted elsewhere, and can rely on the success of another. You more or less have two (or three, or four, or however many) marketing strategies working for you at once.
You may not have the means to implement all of these strategies, but if you're learning a great deal from these 5 points, you need to get going on some of them to succeed in online marketing efforts.

You hear a lot of advice about how to reduce stress at work, though most of it is about what to do over the long term such as eating healthy or getting more sleep. But what do you do when you're overcome with stress at your desk or in a meeting?
Perhaps your neck stiffens, your stomach clenches or your palms sweat. These are all the result of what's happening inside your body. When you're able to recognise the signs, instead of ignoring them, you'll be able to start addressing the underlying cause of the stress.
Shift your thinking about a task that is causing you distress and try to view it as an opportunity to move forward. Use the "adrenaline pop" to focus your nervous energy on truly applying yourself.
When you're stressed, the voice inside your head gets loud, screechy and persistent. It tells you: "I'm so angry," or "I'll never be able to do this". Keep this negative voice at bay by incorporating positivity into your internal dialogue.
Deep breathing is another simple strategy for alleviating in-the-moment tension. It also helps pre-empt stress symptoms if you need to, say, get on a tense conference call or deliver bad news in a performance review.
You shouldn't have to face nerve-wracking moments at the office alone. Talk to someone you trust.
Creating a to-do list that prioritises your most important tasks is another way to combat feeling overwhelmed. Next to each item, indicate when the task needs to be completed. Once the important or urgent tasks are finished, move on to the other things that are more routine.
