Pentagon Starts Using Arabic Acronym for 'ISIS' to Get Away from English Acronym that has 'Islamic' in it

Progressive liberals are obsessed with word games and the Pentagon's reason for using the Arabic acronym for ISIS (Da'ish) rather than the English one does not disappoint in that regard. You see, in English, the "IS" in ISIS stands for "Islamic State". The Arabic acronym is no different in that it stands for the exact […]

SONY Pictures Doing with 'The Interview' what Actress in 'Innocence of Muslims' Not Allowed to do

In the same week that the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court began hearing arguments in the Garcia vs. Google, SONY Pictures decided not to release The Interview, a very unserious movie about the assassination of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

SAN FRANCISCO―June 2, 2014―Apple® today unveiled iOS 8, the biggest release since the launch of the App Store℠, giving users incredible new features and developers the tools to create amazing new apps. iOS 8 delivers a simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience, including iCloud® Photo Library, allowing you to enjoy your photos and videos more easily across your devices; new Messages features to easily share voice, video or photos with just a swipe; and an entirely new Health app that gives you a clear overview of your health and fitness data all in one place. iOS 8 also includes predictive typing for Apple's QuickType™ keyboard; Family Sharing, the easiest way to share purchases, photos and calendars within the same household; and iCloud Drive™, so you can store files and access them from anywhere.

You can see my mascot polar bear, that I'd picked up in an amazing hardware store in Glendive, Montana, a week previously.
Here's a screenshot of my ursine mascot, sitting majestically on top of my beloved Nord Stage. The shot does rather fly past if you don't know what you're looking for!

Last tour of the year
7 Nov 2014 Jay	Leave a comment
I'm on a plane from Boston to Washington DC, where we play the first gig of this tour tomorrow. It's a relatively short run, just two weeks, and in that time we'll do eight shows: Washington DC, New York, Minneapolis, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
I'm excited — our tour of Europe in October went really well — and also nervous. It's cool to be going back to cities we played earlier in the year, this time to slightly larger venues. There's a sense of growth and development that's satisfying and gratifying. I'm looking forward to visiting Portland for the first time, too.
On the flight to Boston, Adrian and I watched the very funny '22 Jump Street' and then I watched some episodes of 'Girls', 'Hello Ladies', and 'True Detective'. Cue much accent mimicking on my part in Boston airport…sorry guys!
On this flight, I started reading Amy Poehler's 'Yes Please' (which is already funny and charming and wise) and listened to a wonderful recording of Shostakovich's 2nd piano concerto, played by Elisabeth Leonskaja with the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra (it's on Spotify — check it out).
There are kids in this airport with 'Class of 2020' shirts on! On that note…here's to a brilliant tour!

I'm excited to get back on the road again, back to our own shows, as opposed to all the festivals we did over the summer. Back to cities we visited earlier this year, and also heading to places we haven't been to before (Milan, Barcelona, Madrid, Fribourg, Utrecht).

Bad Ambassador
This is one of my favourite Neil Hannon songs, from the 'Regeneration' album. I hadn't seen the video until this morning, when I got to it in rather a roundabout way. I was watching Portlandia, season 2, the episode where Kirsten Wiig plays the groupie/stalker/kidnapper. Amber Tamblyn does a turn as an intern in the feminist bookstore, too. And there's another guest, Miranda July, who plays someone who's had a bunch of jobs but, happily (and to a musical number) "she's making jewellery now".
Miranda July is a Portland-based artist, married to artist Mike Mills who directed the 'Bad Ambassador' video. There's a connection, too, via the roller-skating theme, to the video Emma J Doyle and Cory Philpott shot in San Francisco for James Vincent McMorrow's song, 'Gold'…

Flying over the Rockies — YEG to YVR
All airports have three-letter identifying codes. Dublin is DUB, London Heathrow is LHR, Sydney International is SYD…so far, so decipherable. The Canadian airports' codes, for some reason that I can't Wikipedia right now, begin with 'Y'. Toronto Pearson is YYZ and Edmonton, where I'm currently flying from, is YEG. Whatever the reason, it works brilliantly in this day and age of hashtags. Canadians are famously proud of where they're from (backpackers sewing flags on their packs is a charming cliché), and using these tags online is another example of that instinct.
Last night we played the main stage of the Edmonton Folk Festival. I had a thoroughly enjoyable day and was really really impressed by the hospitality we were shown as well as the myriad little touches that belie the festival's strong ethos and thirty year history.
The hillside
The stages are set at the bottom of steep hills, creating natural amphitheatres. The deal is that you bring a tarpaulin and literally stake your claim. (There's a prize to be won each year of being the first on site, so you can get the best spot.) Festival goers can get little tealights so, for us on stage, that meant looking out at a twinkling tidal wave, topped last night by a beautiful yellow moon.
It's probably a bit vulgar to talk too much about how well we get treated sometimes. (Naturally, sometimes it's exactly the opposite!) Edmonton was lovely, though. The festival is staffed by a veritable army of volunteers — three or four thousand, we reckoned — and it gives a reassuring sense of community and calm to the proceedings. Massage, expert tea brewers (a big plus for we Irish!), tasty food, blankets and extra layers and umbrellas for the uncharacteristic rain and cold we had yesterday, a work station manned by technicians who could do repairs to instruments and amps, and a million other things that succeeded in the fact that they *weren't* obvious.
A huge bonus for me was that my favourite band of this year, Lucius, were playing straight after us. Despite our very early start this morning, I was able to stay and hear their entire set. It was the first time I'd seen them perform live, and they were brilliant! Definitely a band to go and see if you get the chance 😀

Muth's Truths
Alden's Non-Armageddon Way to Cut Higher Ed Budget
N&V Staff
(Sean Whaley/Nevada News Bureau) – Those charged with overseeing Nevada's system of higher education heard several scenarios today if the current state budget crisis requires cuts of 22 percent, from closing campuses to huge student fee increases to massive layoffs.
The theoretical scenarios, presented to the Board of Regents by Chancellor Dan Klaich, were intended to demonstrate the severity of the cuts that would be necessary if the system is forced to accept a $110 million budget cut in next fiscal year.
In his report to regents, Klaich said the cuts could be accommodated in several ways.The $110 million target could be reached by closing the College of Southern Nevada and the Nevada State College at Henderson.
The cuts could also be achieved by laying off 1,290 higher education employees or by raising student fees by nearly 50 percent.
"Students will be denied access; they will be slowed down; turned away," Klaich said.
None of these options are manageable, but Klaich told regents they help convey the severity of the situation Nevada's higher education is facing because of the state's continued economic downturn.
Some combination, including campus consolidation, student fee increases and layoffs or paycuts, could become part of a final higher education budget reduction plan.
Regent Mark Alden, who attended the meeting in Las Vegas with most regents, did not offer any comment during the discussion. But in a phone interview afterwards, he said the budget could be balanced without the great disruptions discussed during the meeting.
"The state college is the best thing they've got," Alden said. "What we should do is cap enrollment at the universities and move all undergrad teaching and nursing courses to the community colleges and state college."
Alden said that move would make up about a third of the shortfall. Then, all salaries and payroll should be cut by 10 percent to 15 percent to make up the remainder of the required reductions, he said.
"It would solve the problem, but no one wants to do it," Alden said. "I don't know why."
The Nevada System of Higher Education would also see a $37 million cut in funding this fiscal year starting March 1 under the 22 percent cut scenario.
The actual level of cuts that will be required in higher education, as well as the rest of state government, remains a work in progress. Gov. Jim Gibbons is reviewing his options, and is expected to present a plan of action at a special state of the state address on Monday. He will also call the Legislature into special session to deal with the crisis, likely later this month.
State lawmakers have scheduled a number of meetings with their own fiscal staff and state agency leaders to go over options. They have also scheduled a number of public meetings to hear from the public on ideas to balance the budget.
Klaich was scheduled to meet with legislative leaders later today to go over what the budget cuts would mean to higher education.
The state is facing a shortfall estimated at between $900 million and $1 billion over the remainder of this fiscal year and next. Most of the shortfall is the result of tax revenues coming in much lower than projected when the Legislature adopted a two-year budget last year. Increased Medicaid caseloads that must be paid for are adding to the overall budget dilemma.
The cuts expected to be required to balance the budget will likely hit every area of state government and include public education as well.
Gibbons said he is considering layoffs, the shutdown of programs and other drastic measures to balance the budget.
Regents appeared inclined to support the idea that any cuts should be implemented by campus presidents, allowing for maximum flexibility.
Regent Michael Wixom said only that campus cuts should be accomplished in such a way as to ensure no serious issues arise as to equity among the various colleges.
Regents will await action by Gibbons and the Legislature before taking action to implement any budget cuts. The board is scheduled to meet March 4 and 5 in Southern Nevada where final decisions are expected to be made.

Lawmakers Scrambling to Duck Necessary Budget Cuts


One might almost think that Jack Kevorkian wanted to be punished. His death trade had been tooling along nicely with more than 100 victims to his credit and scarcely a raised eyebrow from the authorities. The newspapers gave his assisted suicides perfunctory coverage, with the exception of one particularly grisly body he deposited at the morgue. (Kevorkian had ripped the man's kidneys out, tying off the bloody vessels with dirty string.) Perhaps Kevorkian couldn't bear to be out of the headlines for so long and therefore viewed Thomas Youk as an opportunity. Youk's death was different from any of Kevorkian's previous efforts in two ways. First, it was broadcast on national television. Second, Kevorkian himself administered the deadly dose of drugs instead of permitting the "suicide" to pull a lever that would release the chemicals into an intravenous line. It was about as direct a challenge to the state of Michigan as could be imagined. Dr. Death had been at war with official Michigan for many years. It began when the state revoked his medical license, continued with four criminal prosecutions (three of which ended in acquittals and one in an intentional mistrial), and went further still with a law passed by the legislature making it a crime to assist someone who is killing himself. Within the past two years, pro-euthanasia forces succeeded in putting mercy killing on the ballot. It was defeated 2-1.
Kevorkian, who regards anyone who disagrees with him as either stupid or malevolent or both, was finding it hard to live with the decision of Michigan voters that mercy killing ought to remain a crime. And so he found the ideal way to thumb his nose at them -- he enlisted "60 Minutes" and virtually invited the state to arrest him.
It did. The producers of "60 Minutes" were fortunate to avoid criminal liability, but that's another matter. Blinded by zealotry, Kevorkian then made another mistake. He elected to serve as his own attorney.
Kevorkian has always believed that his claims of righteousness are incontrovertible. His was the humanitarian approach to sickness and dying, he claimed. His "patients" had terminal illnesses and came to him in desperation, knowing that assisted suicide was their only escape from weeks or months of pain and suffering. But, as a jury finally decided, those claims were false. In the first place, not all of Kevorkian's victims were terminally ill. Many listed multiple sclerosis as their reason for seeking death. MS is not fatal. Others were not sick at all. Rebecca Badger was 39 when Kevorkian helped her to kill herself. She had told him that she suffered from MS. But after her death, the coroner who performed the autopsy announced that she did not have the disease. "I can show you every slice from her brain and spinal cord," he said, "and she doesn't have a bit of MS. She looked robust, fairly healthy. Everything else is in order -- except that she's dead."
Another of the women who sought out Kevorkian's services had been beaten by her husband in the days before she killed herself with the good doctor's help.
It isn't that assisted-suicide advocates have no arguments. There are some very hard cases that make the rigid foreclosure against hastening death seem cruel. But assisted suicide is not the answer. Those who truly want to end suffering offer palliative care, psychiatric treatment (we can treat depression; we can't bring people back from the dead) and loving support.
Assisted suicide slips very readily into the scary, immoral world of pushing inconvenient people toward an early grave. What begins as an effort to deal with the hard cases of severe suffering quickly degenerates into a pattern of serving the convenience of people other than the patient -- an exhausted spouse, stressed-out children or the wider society (the Hemlock Society believes sick, elderly people should be euthanized to save health-care dollars for younger people).
This is exactly what has happened in Holland, where the elderly carry "passports for life" in their wallets to avoid euthanasia if they should happen to be hospitalized. Thanks to one Michigan jury, and a tough judge whose sentence concluded with "Consider yourself stopped," we have taken a step back from that abyss.

(ANSA) - Vatican City, October 19 - A delegation from the Holy See has made an official visit to Beijing for the first time in five years in what was described Monday as a "spectacular gesture" by Vatican diplomats, Ucanews reported.
No details of who took part in the visit or its results were disclosed but the visit was reported by Ucanews and hailed by historian Agostino Giovagnoli.
"Pope France's gaze is embracing ever wider horizons, from the United States to China, showing a Church that does not want to forget anyone and is interested in all situations, even those most far off and difficult," Avvenire newspaper quoted Giovagnoli as saying.
Only a few days ago Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin, speaking about the pope's repeated request to visit China, said "the situation (in Sino-Vatican relations) is not yet ripe, but one is working slowly and discretely for an understanding".
Parolin added that "at the moment it is impossible to make predictions".
Giovagnoli noted that there has been considerable tension between the Holy See and China since the last visit five years ago including illegitimate ordinations of priests and preventing the bishop of Shanghai, Ma Daqin, from taking up his duties.
"Restarting dialogue was far from certain but the Pope Francis effect was felt in China from his election".

Q: Energy dissipation from a black hole by neutrinos Could the high gravitation field of a black hole cause neutrinos to form a Fermi gas or superfluid?  Could these neutrinos from the neutrino background of the big bang whose temperature and deBroglie wavelength could cause neutrino wave functions to overlap form a Fermi gas or superfluid?  Various excitations of a superfluid such as phonons or rotons could escape the halo surrounding the black hole event horizon or maybe simple scattering of neutrinos from the lower filled states may be sufficient to dissipate energy.  Is this too far fetched an idea?
Another dissipation mechanism may also be possible via muon or kaon creation...

Is Life Feeling Too Stressful?


Retail outlets can no longer solely rely on great customer service and a welcoming brick-and-mortar store to meet all their customers' needs. A mobile app is a great asset to be used as a complement with these two elements of the retail experience. 84% of app usage is happening in stores, which shows that app usage and store visits are no longer mutually exclusive.
In a physical store, shoppers use apps on their own mobile devices, and now store associates are often using smartphones or tablets to better serve their customers at the point of sale or while they browse the aisles.
Another way retailers are making use of mobile apps to better serve the in-store shopper is to strategically place tablet kiosks throughout the store - typically at the end of an aisle. This allows the consumer to explore product details and demos, read customer reviews, compare prices, receive similar product recommendations, or even pull up extensive inventory - perhaps a different color or size - that is not currently available in the store. This is the "Endless Aisle" experience.
Early adopters of the Endless Aisle, like GPShopper clients The North Face and bebe, provide another avenue to engage the customer, as well as "Save the Sale" that may otherwise go to a competitor with large store space (hence, increased ability to store inventory) or an online-only retailer like Amazon.com.
Endless Aisles create a frictionless consumer multi-channel experience that is beneficial for both retailer and consumer.

North Macedonia 2019 🇲🇰 Tamara Todevska to Tel Aviv
NORTH MACEDONIA – Tamara Todevska was born in Skopje. She was raised in a musical family. Her father, Velko Todevski, is a North Macedonian professor in a music school and her mom, Branka Todevska, is a Bosnian Serb opera singer. Tamara's mom influenced her deep, operatic vocal style. Her older sister is Tijana Dapčević.
As we all know, Tamara Todevska is no stranger to Eurovision – she already represented her country back in 2008 together with Adrian Gaxha and Vrchak with "Let Me Love You", and she was a backing vocalist for Tose Proeski in 2004 and for her sister Tijana in 2014.
Her first official song is a duet with her sister Tijana called "Igra luda" (Crazy game), released in 1997. Her music career broke through in 2003 when she sang "1003" at the Montenegrin festival Suncane Skale, where she placed 2nd.
In 2005, her first album was realized under the title Sino (English translation "Blue"). The music producer and composer of this album is Aleksandar Masevski with whom had Tamara cooperated since 2004. The album won Album of the year (2005).
Hits from that album are: "Sino", "Molci, molci" (ft. Ronin), "A,shto ako?", "Ljubovna prikazna" (ft. Ugro), "Najverni prijateli", "Ljubi, ljubi" (duet with Tuna), "Shetaj" etc.
Tamara was successful during the North Macedonian Eurovision selection. She gained 105 points, placing second with the song "Kazi Koj Si Ti" ("Tell Me Who You Are")
North Macedonia 🇲🇰 in his very day of final agreement approval by Greece MKRTV announced @tamaratodevska as the country's representative for @eurovision 2019 @oikotimes #daretodream #eurovision #oikotimes #eurovision2019
A post shared by OIKOTIMES EUROVISION (@oikotimes) on Jan 25, 2019 at 11:27am PST
In February 2008, Tamara won the Skopje Fest 2008 with the composition "Vo ime na ljubovta" featuring Rade Vrchakovski and Adrian Gaxha. The song was a hit in the Balkans, and was predicted to do well in the ESC 2008.
The song was sung in six languages (Macedonian, English, Serbian, Turkish, Russian and Albanian) and the quality video was made by Dejan Milicevic. In the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 they set in the second semifinal on the number 18.
They sang the English version of "Vo ime na ljubovta" called "Let me love you" and reached 10th place in the semifinal. With the decision of the jury they failed to qualify.
On 27 June 2015, Tamara married former basketball player Aleksandar Dimitrovski. They have one daughter named Hana and one son Daren.

Cold Mornin' Shout 3:29
Don't Walk Away From The Stove
reviewed by Joe Bebco
for The Syncopated Times, August, 2019
In an era when many review copies come as downloads, or even streaming links, I was overjoyed to receive an exceptionally packaged LP with equally exceptional music inside. I was prompted to contact the author of this work of art, Chicago musician John Hasbrouck. I'll refrain from turning over the balance of this column to his enthusiastic response but I do want to share his words with you:
"Don't Walk Away From The Stove is a snapshot of the traditional jazz scene that developed a few years ago at Honky Tonk BBQ, a popular venue in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood. I'd had a residency playing string ragtime there with my duo, The Northside Southpaws, for several years when The Fat Babies Jazz Band began their Sunday night residency. I was there one night with some string players and we decided to swipe The Fat Babies' book and start a string jazz quartet of our own. It turned into a weekly rehearsal band. We told the Babies, 'We're stealing your book'. They loved it.
"Local music scenes come and go. People move into the neighborhood. Others move away. There's a constant flux. You know what happened: after a few years, everybody was working with everybody. Spontaneous duos, trios, quartets formed. Set lists overlapped."
To capture the scene in Pilsen, Hasbrouck called on 22 musicians to record a unique album of instrumental string band jazz. I asked him how he decided on instrumentation:
"I wanted to have variety in the instrumentation, so there's a duo, a couple trios, on up to a quintet. Also, I wanted lots of resonator instruments. This is because I have dreamed for years of having The Chicago Reso-Phonic Orchestra, an 8- or 9-piece ensemble in which everyone is playing a resonator instrument.
"A few of the tracks on the LP are credited to The Chicago Reso-Phonic Orchestra. I make no secret that there are a few overdubs on these orchestral tracks. That happens when I want resonator mandolin, resonator octave mandolin, and resonator tenor guitar all on the same track. On the other hand, there's a duo track featuring me on a traditional mandolin and an upright bass player."
The song selections are largely traditional jazz stalwarts like Limehouse Blues and Angry so I asked how they were chosen, and a secret was revealed:
"The book we stole from The Fat Babies is called the Firehouse Fake Book. My rehearsal group read from this book in my basement every Monday night for about 18 months before our first gig. During that time, for my own edification, I created mandolin chord melodies of the Firehouse tunes I liked, and I would then bring these to rehearsal.
"But not all of the tunes are from the Firehouse Fake Book. 4 or 5 of the 15 tunes were transcribed from old 78 rpm records. One tune, Chicago Tangle, is original, composed by Eric Noden."
Hasbrouck's background is playing in ragtime string groups and pre-bluegrass old-timey bands. When the Fat Babies took over Sunday nights at Honky Tonk BBQ with their straight early jazz sound the crowd response was so ravenous that he decided to see if they would also respond to jazz from a string band. On a local radio show he straightforwardly says that he was going for "a string band version of the Fat Babies." The comparison is apt.
This isn't the formal pre jazz sound of a ragtime string orchestra, it isn't gypsy jazz or cafe jazz, nor is it the hokum heat of a jug band on a New Orleans street corner. The talented musicians create a direct transposition of hot mid-20s Chicago jazz for strings. It's refreshing, palate cleansing, and joyful. Much of the album has a soft feel resulting from the instrumentation but the rhythmic drive can match any band with horns. All comers will want to claim this foot-tapping cross style sound for their genre but it is certainly jazz and nothing but American.
Other tracks include Sweet Lorraine, Baltimore, Mean to Me, Chinese Breakdown, Sugar, and Harrisburg Itch, a country string band tune that in its 1927 original form shows how small the leap to jazz is.
Most of the musicians credited are unfamiliar to me, and there are too many to list. Those in the Chicago area will surely know more of them. Their other bands include The Fat Babies, The Hat Stretchers, and The Pre-Modern Sounds, and one guesses many others. They don't all come from a jazz background but they are all skilled and I'm happy they were drawn to this project.
I assumed from all this largess that the album was a big professional production. In reality, half of it was recorded in John's living room and the other in his friend Alex Hall's studio. It's a testament to how accessible modern technology has made the recording process.
Lest the reader simply seeks out a download I need to describe the artwork containing the art. The LP comes between sturdy boards, with an attractive cover design, and on the reverse, a chart for determining the players on each track, the instruments used, and the bands those players are associated with. Inside you'll find a foldout transcription sheet for Cold Mornin' Shout. Hasbrouck spent five years working it out for mandolin and banjo, something he calls an "intense learning experience." On the album, it is one of the highlights. A harmonica, guitar, mandolin-banjo trio number that goes beyond creating a feeling to tell a story without words and, being the second track, tunes you up to receive the rest of the album.
The inner sleeve is sturdy with a photograph of a fire alarm on one side and something on the other that illustrates how this album was both a community effort and a personal success for John Hasbrouck; a 1981 letter dismissing him from his college music major. The packaging also contains a pretty little card with instructions so you can get your download.
The session for Angry featured two Fat Babies: Andy Schumm on tenor banjo, and Jake Sanders on resonator guitar. When the session began, I remember hearing Andy say to Jake, "We should figure out an intro." Jake said, "OK," and they got down to business. This is where I was smart enough to keep my mouth shut and simply observe as the creative sparks flew between these guys. This is why I invited them. They immediately cooked up a perfect intro for the song – for the whole LP, in fact, since Angry is the opening track. I recorded the quartet live with a stereo microphone in my living room. (Mixing with a stereo mic is very much trial and error. Lots of "…move a little bit to your left, please.") A few days later, I decided Jake's solo was a little bit low in the mix. But I had an idea. I asked Jake if he would mind if I learned his improvised solo note-for-note, and then double his solo on the record. He was delighted with the idea. I ended up using an octave resonator mandolin for the job. It's the first solo on the LP. Andy takes the second solo on tenor banjo, and he nails it.
I've known Joel Paterson since he was 15 when we were both busking in Madison, Wisconsin. There was never any question that he'd be on the record. One day I was reading through a TuneDex card of I Surrender Dear and I decided that that's the one for Joel and I to record. I immediately recorded a brief chord melody of the tune with my mandolin – verse/chorus – using my iPhone and sent it in a text message to Joel. He wrote back, saying, "I like it. I like the chords." And that was that. Now, Joel is Joel, which means he has no interest in rehearsing or multiple takes. I think we did one run-through to get the form. Joel said, "Don't play that A minor chord. It's corny." So we did our one take, and there's a MISTAKE in it. I said, "Shall we do it again?" And Joel said, "No no no.. Let's just punch it in," because fixing a mistake is far preferable to doing a second take. And so that's what we did. One does not argue with Joel Paterson about such things. Fifteen minutes later we were done. Joel is also credited with Flash Photography on the LP.
A prominent recording engineer once told me, "John, you don't get a gold star for having no edits."
Chicago Tangle was written by my friend Eric Noden. One day Eric and I were hanging out and I asked him if he'd like to be on my new album. He said he would. Eric is a prolific composer, so I asked him if he had any new material handy. He said, no, it's easier to just write something new. He asked me what I had in mind. Without thinking too much, I told him I wanted a piece that sounded like an old Jelly Roll Morton solo piano number in a minor key with multiple sections. We talked about the "Spanish tinge" that Jelly Roll said was so essential to jazz. Eric later called me and asked what key I would prefer. (D minor.) A week or so later he was done. He came over and taught me the tune by ear. (At no point was the tune written down.) We also recorded a demo and decided we'd ask Beau Sample to play upright bass. Eric and I had one more rehearsal where I finished memorizing the tune and we made another demo which we sent to Beau. Eric and Beau came over the following Sunday afternoon (with plenty of time before The Fat Babies show up the street) and we set up the stereo mic. Two hours later we were done.
Most of the sessions lasted 2 or 2.5 hours, including rehearsal and tracking."


It's Thursday and that means it's time for another Booktastic Link It Up Thursday!
I can't figure out why my images come through (sorry about that!) if anyone has any tips to turn that off, let me know!
No worries. The linky is text only so no images should show up. Not seeing any on my end.
Thanx for organizing this - you rock it chicky!
What a neat idea! Linkups are fantastic.
I love link ups. They're a great way for finding out about more blogs, and connecting with other bloggers.


Visual Effects, finishing, editing, supervision... these have been my passion. Chicago is home again after 22 years in Los Angeles, as well as time in New York and Cincinnati.
For my 40th birthday my wife bought me a neon SIGN. A Margarita. At thAT time, every time we moved we haD to change email addresses, so I BOUGHT the domain neonmargarita.com.
WCET (public TV station) in Cincinnati is where I started: camera, audio, lighting, editing, TD, every production job... after a few years I moved to producing & directing. From educational shows like Zoo, Zoo, Zoo to Sports, Symphony, Dixieland, Opera, Jazz, Bluegrass, and the local music show Rock Around the Block.
I moved to WLWT (NBC affiliate) where I produced and/or directed parades, events, The Cincinnati Reds Television Network and directed the news and many other shows, including filling in on The Bob Braun Show. When the news moved to a blue screen set that required digital backgrounds I found myself spending a lot of time at a local post house creating them.
That led me to Post Production - first at Instant Replay (Cincinnati), then at Charlex (New York), Editel (Chicago) and then on to Los Angeles. Spent time in LA at CIS, The Post Group, Sol Designfx, Digital Domain (among others) working on Commercials, Feature Films and Television Shows.

"Smoke detectors" in plants also control the growth of root hair: How roots grow hair

The roots of plants can do a lot of things: They grow in length to reach water, they can bend to circumvent stones, and they form fine root hairs enabling them to absorb more nutrients from the soil. A team of researchers led by scientists at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has now identified an important regulator of this process.
If a forest fire destroys larger plants, seeds of so called fire-followers see their chance: these have a receptor protein that can "smell" certain molecules generated in smoke of burnt plant material. The receptor protein called KAI2 sets off a signal cascade causing the seeds to germinate.
A team of researchers led by Caroline Gutjahr, professor for plant genetics at the TUM School of Life Sciences Weihenstephan, has now discovered that it also plays an important role in regulating the growth of roots.
Root hairs increase the root surface area
To achieve a large surface area through which water and nutrients can be absorbed, the roots of plants grow fine root hairs. José Antonio Villaécija-Aguilar, a Ph. D. student in Caroline Gutjahr's team, has now made the discovery that KAI2 is both necessary for the growth of this root hair and for the downward growth of roots.
"It is likely that this not only applies to the thale cress (Arabidopsis), which can be found almost everywhere in the world and is used by us as a model plant," Caroline Gutjahr says, "but possibly also for many other plants, for example cereal crops."
Smoke molecules cause root hairs to grow
To check their hypothesis, the team of researchers exposed young arabidopsis plants to the molecules (called karrikins) present in smoke. This indeed significantly increased the growth of root hairs.
"Our results are also interesting in the light of evolution," Caroline Gutjahr says. "It is likely that KAI2 was initially responsible for controlling certain development processes in all plants, such as, for example, the development of root hairs and similar structures, in reaction to a plant hormone that is so far unknown. In the course of evolution of fire-activated seeds, KAI2 thas presumably developed the additional feature of detecting smoke."
Use in plant breeding
The findings not only promote a more thorough understanding of how plants work, but can also be important for future sustainable agriculture.
"With this new and better understanding, of which molecular mechanisms play a role in the development of roots and root hairs, we can breed plants which are better able to absorb nutrients and water from the soil," Caroline Gutjahr says. "This can for example help crops to resist longer periods of drought, which may occur more frequently in the future."

Sometimes we must physically move our bodies to process emotions or discover something new about ourselves. Add this movement meditation into your practice and discover what happens when you let your body lead and your mind follow.
This meditation is influenced by Jon Kabat Zinn' s Love & Kindness meditation. The more formal metta practice (compassion practice) typically starts off by giving love and kindness to yourself first before spreading it. However, this guided meditation takes a slightly different approach.
A lot of the time there is a pattern that people struggle to give love and kindness to themselves and find it easier to share that warmth with others. During this meditation, you will experience your heart open as you share love and kindness with others and let that be a gateway to foster love and kindness for yourself.
This meditation becomes a reminder that sometimes we must give what we would like to receive.
Due to the current political and social climate, there is a lot of instability and anxiety present in our culture. Whether you feel it inside of you, see it on others or just read about it, it is a fact that people are experiencing more anxiety than ever. Instead of dismissing these emotions or numbing out, I welcome you to face them with courage.
Waking up in the morning can be challenging. Especially as we step into fall and face darker days. Instead of dragging your heels and sleep walking through your routines, enjoy practicing with this 10-minute morning meditation to support your mind, body and breath wake up to the gift that life truly is. With every conscious breath you will feel more awake, connected and grateful for the life you get to live in this moment.
Ditch the guilt and resentment you might be holding onto against yourself or others. Create a sense of freedom and ease as you set your relationships free.
The 4 elements of earth, water, fire and air make up everything in our world. Check out this 20-minute body scan meditation, that explores how the 4 elements are alive inside of your body. This meditation will support you feeling grounded and more connected to the wonder and beauty that is your body.
Connection is one of our human basic needs. That sense of love and belonging -- knowing that we matter, have a community and feel at one with our surroundings. It can be challenging in a fast paced world to feel authentically connected. Try listening to this meditation as part of a continual practice to connect to yourself and the greater world around you.
This meditation is designed to kick the negative self-talk and personal judgements you may have about your body to the curb. Instead, replace those thoughts with more words of love, kindness & gratitude for all that your body does. You and your body are AMAZING and will never happen again. So simmer in its glory and celebrate every inch of your being!
Think a noisy environment is the wrong place to meditate? Guess again! Wherever you go and wherever you are is the perfect place and space to meditate--even if cars are honking or people are yelling. During this meditation you will learn how to use the noise of your external environment to support you tuning deeper into your internal environment. This was one of my favorite meditations to practice while living in New York City.
Tap into your inner knowing and wisdom by giving your 6th chakra a "lick." (You'll get what I mean when you listen to the recording). This 10-minute meditation is just the medicine you need to create some mental space and let your intuition shine. This is the perfect mediation for those moments when you are in paralysis analysis, consumed by self-doubt or have some big questions you are pondering. Create some space and gain some clarity.
The gift of curiosity begins by connecting to your breath. Connect to the wonder that is your breath and the gift that keeps us living without us needing to do anything!
As humans, we sometimes tend to doubt ourselves. We question our worthiness, our skills, our looks and our ability to handle challenging situations. In order to build true confidence, it must come from the inside out. And the key to building confidence is creating a deeper sense of trust from within. During this meditation, I walk you through a powerful mantra to support building and strengthening your inner confidence so that you can handle whatever life throws your way.
Acceptance is the ability to experience ourselves and our lives as things are. It is a move away from self-deception or denial and towards reality. When we let ourselves face reality, we are truly present, and the tendency to resist or numb fades.


Single at Heart | Living the single life singly.
"Starting a family." It is a phrase that has been commonplace for quite a long time. To many people, it seemed benign. Or they just never thought about it.
With the release of the Mueller Report, emotions about politics are flaring. In the Trump era, that's not new. What may be new about the past few years is the extent to which political topics are seeping into, and sometimes even dominating, discussions between therapists and their clients.
I love good food, but sometimes what most attracts me to a restaurant is the setting and the views. At one of my favorite Santa Barbara restaurants, I can sit out on the porch on the top floor, and soak in the spectacular views of the harbor just in front of me and the mountains off into the distance. I've gone there with friends, relatives, and people I'm meeting for the first time. I also go on my own.
How do you react when something changes, and you had no control over it? For example, maybe a friend changes their mind about what you were planning to do together, or your doctor or dentist retires, or a restaurant loses the reservation that you were so careful to make in advance. These kinds of things probably happen to all of us, more often than we realize.


The mass of this plane, its long base and low centre of gravity make it both stable and effective. Tipping the scales at just over 3.5kg and just under 400mm long, it is a substantial plane; you will appreciate the authority it provides when shooting.
The body is fully stress-relieved, ductile cast iron, with a sole and running surface machined flat and square to one another; the 54mm wide running surface fits the classic Stanley #52 chute board. Three set screws let you compensate for slight inaccuracies in a wooden shooting board by adjusting the blade square to the workpiece. Loosening a brass locking knob allows you to adjust the mouth opening, while a stop-screw retains mouth settings and prevents contact between the blade and movable toe. You can set the adjustable rear tote at a comfortable angle for use with the sole vertical or horizontal as on a normal plane.
A bevel-up plane, it has a blade skewed 20° to reduce cutting resistance, producing a shearing cut that leaves a neat, crisp finish on end grain. Combined with the 12° bed angle and 25° blade bevel, this yields an effective cutting angle of 35°. The tool includes a lapped blade of PM-V11 tool steel.
A Norris-style mechanism combines feed and lateral adjustments for easy, precise blade setting.
