This week we'll send a Charger Alkaline Batteries PCB to two readers. So if you want this PCB you can fill into the coments.
Magazine Emiter has described how to build this project with full details, so if you want this magazine you can buy from here.
Yes, we'll mail it anywhere in the world of course!
We reserve the right to ignore any request.
This PCB is offered without warranty.


The problem is, that when the $attr param is set via the function call and additionally there's a post value set in $post_value, the html attribute "value" is printed twice!
value="" comes from the $printed markup wich has an empty attribute value e.g. via an empty default value of the an input.
value="blue" comes from the $post_value e.g. if you submit the form and got form errors in other inputs, but the inputted value of blue appears in it's corresponding input again, so that the user does not have to fill out the field again.
Between the post_value and $markup definition, we added a check if there's a post value set, and set the value in the $attr Array (function param) . Afterwards the $markup is defined and get's either the $attr["value"] or the post value.
because it's not neccessary to output the value twice and the value is set correctly above.
Could you please check and integrate the bug fix (or fix it in a better way) so that we can use Forminator for a real customer project?
By now it's not possible to use Forminator because of this bug.
Adam Czajczyk awesome and thank you!
i think this is really crucial and should be on high prio, because it affects the base functionality of Forminator.
- in form settings the validation method is "server only"
- the form has a text field with a default value "default val from backend"
- i change the text's default value to "new value"
- the text input should have a value of "news value"
- the text input has a value of "default value"
imagine a form with 50 fields and default values.
if the user fills all 50 fields and there's only one validation error, all 50 field values are gone and replaced by their default values.
could you hand this over to the devs and set it to high prio?
we really need the form's working 100% right to finish our implemenation using the outstanding Forminator plugin for our customer.
(the bug fix, or one solution for it, is already provided through our code (see above)).
I can see how this can seriously break entire "workflow" and I've also passed this last message from you to our developers too as I believe it clearly shows the nature of the issue.
I'm afraid I'm not able to set priorities - they have insight to all the issues that were/are reported by Members and us (support team) as well as our Q&A team so they do set priorities themselves based on that. But I believe that's something of a critical nature so I have urged them to check it and asked to deal with it as soon as possible.
"Fix: Double value attribute for input fields"
and ... it fixes the problem!

Cult-classic RPG moon coming to Switch on October 10 in Japan, later worldwide
Available in English for the first time ever.
Sep 4 2019 / 6:34 PM EST
Onion Games will release moon, the cult-classic RPG that first launched for the original PlayStation in October 1997, for Switch via the Nintendo eShop on October 10 in Japan for 1,980 yen, and at a later date worldwide, the company announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Onion Games:
A long, long time ago, under the silvery light of a full moon, the legendary "anti-RPG" moon was released in Japan. Now, 22 years later, revived by a team of its original creators, find out why it became an instant cult-classic, as moon comes to the Nintendo Switch—in English, for the first time ever!
What is moon?
Have you ever played an RPG and wondered…
"Why is it OK that this hero is breaking into houses and stealing items from people's drawers??"
"Why is it OK that this hero is killing thousands of innocent monsters??"
moon is a game about turning those tropes upside down, and seeing what really happens behind the scenes of your favorite RPG video games.
The Story of moon

As Moon World's hero loots and levels up by cutting down monsters for experience points — you know, as heroes do — the boy releases their souls and collects their "Love". moon is not a game where you'll fight to level up — your own progress comes by gathering lost "Love"!
As you explore the world, you'll meet a crazy cast of weird and wonderful NPCs. Observe their strange habits and daily routines by visiting them at different times and days of the week, and learn their secrets to uncover even more lost "Love"!
"Now… use your own power to open the door…"
Conquer a game with a clear conscience in this Zero-Battle RPG! Free monsters' souls!

Narration: This may not apply to all eLearning projects, but if your course includes voice-over talent or closed captions, including narration in your storyboard is important for both the subject matter experts and the developers. The subject matter experts should approve what the narration says while the developers, with the assistance of the instructional designers, will ensure the narration works with the on-screen elements.
Graphic Design Requirements: Whether graphics and images are provided to you by the client or custom graphics are being created, conveying what you require is crucial in the storyboard. It may be as basic as requesting a graphic treatment such as a drop-shadow or asking a graphic designer to remove a background and replace with something that works with the theme.
Developer Instructions: Though written for developers to tell them everything they need to know to program or build the course, these instructions can explain to approvers and subject matter experts how a page will work. Developer notes also explain navigation, buttons and other interactions that may be built into your course.
Storyboards are an important communication tool. They not only tell a story but they help your clients, subject matter experts and approvers visualize the end product. Storyboards communicate technical information to developers, visuals to graphic designers, and narration to voice over talents. Storyboards, in essence, relay both visually and through text, what all parties need to know to lift a vision from the page and bring it to life on the learner's screen.

Final Fantasy Type-1, Type-2, And… Type-3?
By Spencer . January 16, 2011 . 4:30pm
So, it appears Final Fantasy Type-0 may be bigger than a single game. In addition to the enigmatic trademark and we discovered, Square Enix also filed three related trademarks. In Europe, Square Enix registered Type-1, Type-2, and Type-3.
Yes, those are Japanese numerals, but not common kanji. Square Enix wrote 1, 2, and 3 in daiji or formal numbers often used for contracts and other legal documents. While Square Enix registered a domain name for Final Fantasy Type-0, they didn't do the same for Final Fantasy Type-1. This suggests these trademarks are, perhaps, protective trademarks, just in case Square Enix decides to release Final Fantasy Type-1 in the future.
But, what is Final Fantasy Type-0? With all of these trademarks it seems like something we'll see at next week's Production 1 press event.

#Forum2000online Chat
In this week's #Forum2000online Chat, French political scientist, Arabist and Professor at Paris Sciences and Lettres University, Gilles Kepel, spoke about the situation in Afghanistan and the wider region now that the US have withdrawn.
"Before we sort of focus on the Taliban themselves, the fact that all this political Islam in the region was to some extent precipitated by American help at the time is also very telling."

Stalking is a term commonly used to refer to unwanted, obsessive attention by individuals (and sometimes groups of people) to others. Stalking behaviors are related to harassment and intimidation. The word "stalking" is used, with some differing meanings, in psychology and psychiatry and also in some legal jurisdictions as a term for a criminal offense. It may also be used to refer to criminal offences or civil wrongs that include conduct which some people consider to be stalking, such as those described in law as "harassment" or similar terms.[citation needed]

Definitions of stalking
The difficulties associated with precisely defining this term (or defining it at all) are well documented.[1] It seems to have been first applied to the harassment (in a general sense) of celebrities by strangers who were described as being obsessed. This use of the word appears to have been coined by the tabloid press in the United States.[2]
Stalking can be defined as the willful and repeated following, watching, and / or harassing of another person. Most of the time, the purpose of stalking is to attempt to force a relationship with someone who is unwilling or otherwise unavailable. Unlike other crimes, which usually involve one act, stalking is a series of actions that occur over a period of time. Although stalking is illegal, the actions that contribute to stalking are legal, such as gathering information, calling someone on the phone, sending gifts, emailing or instant messaging. Such actions by themselves are not usually abusive, but can become abusive when frequently repeated over time.[3]
Psychology and behaviors
Template:POV-section People characterized as stalkers may have a mistaken belief that another person loves them (erotomania), or that they need rescuing.[3] Stalking can sometimes consist of an accumulation of a series of actions which in themselves can be legal, such as calling on the phone, sending gifts, or sending emails.[4] In the UK Government own research demonstrates that, despite media reports and research of vested interests, the UK harassment act "is rarely used for stalking as portrayed by the media since only a small minority of cases in the survey involved such behaviour".[5]
Stalkers may use threats and violence to frighten their victims. They may also engage in vandalism and property damage and make physical attacks that are mostly meant to frighten. Less common are sexual assaults.[3]
In the UK, for example, most so-called stalkers are ex-partners and evidence shows that the mentally ill stalking type of behaviour propagated in the media occurs in only a minority of cases of alleged stalking [5]. As with sexual harassment law, it is very easy for false claims to be made or at least for the law to be broken as the law is so ill-defined, whether or not someone has been harassed has no objective definition and claims can be made arbitrarily. Compensation claims add another reason for false and malicious claims. A UK Home Office Research study on the use the 1997 Protection of Harassment Act (which is the UK stalking law) quotes "The study found that the Protection from Harassment Act is being used to deal with a variety of behaviour such as domestic and inter-neighbour disputes. It is rarely used for stalking as portrayed by the media since only a small minority of cases in the survey involved such behaviour.[5]
Psychological effects on stalking victims
Stalking can be a terrifying experience for victims, placing them at risk of psychological trauma and physical harm. Common emotional consequences include depression, anxiety, loss of self-esteem, shame, hopelessness and a sense of vulnerability that can persist long after the stalking ends.[citation needed] It is common for victims to blame themselves (self-blame), especially if the stalking results from an established relationship with the stalker.[citation needed] Families and friends may contribute to this sense that the victim is at fault (victim blaming).[citation needed] Disruptions in daily life necessary to escape the stalker, including changes in employment, residence and phone numbers, may take a toll on the victim's well-being and lead to a sense of isolation.[6]
According to Lamber Royakkers, "Stalking is a form of mental assault, in which the perpetrator repeatedly, unwantedly, and disruptively breaks into the life-world of the victim, with whom they have no relationship (or no longer have). Moreover, the separated acts that make up the intrusion cannot by themselves cause the mental abuse, but do taken together (cumulative effect)."[4]
Gender studies related to stalking
According to one study, women often target other women, whereas men generally stalk women only.[7][8] However, a January 2009 report from the Department of Justice in the United States reports that "Males were as likely to report being stalked by a male as a female offender. 43% of male stalking victims stated that the offender was female, while 41% of male victims stated that the offender was another male. Female victims of stalking were significantly more likely to be stalked by a male (67%) rather than a female (24%) offender." This report provides considerable data by gender and race about both stalking and harassment.[9]
Types of stalkers
Psychologists often group individuals who stalk into two categories: psychotic and nonpsychotic.[10] Many Template:Quantify stalkers have pre-existing psychotic disorders such as delusional disorder, schizoaffective disorder, or schizophrenia. Most stalkers are nonpsychotic and may exhibit disorders or neuroses such as major depression, adjustment disorder, or substance dependence, as well as a variety of Axis II personality disorders (such as antisocial, avoidant, borderline, dependent, narcissistic, or paranoid). Some of the symptoms of "obsessing" over a person is part of obsessive compulsive personality disorder. The nonpsychotic stalkers' pursuit of victims can be influenced by various psychological factors, including anger, hostility, projection of blame, obsession, dependency, minimization, denial, and jealousy. Conversely, as is more commonly the case, the stalker has no antipathic feelings towards the victim, but simply a longing that cannot be fulfilled due to deficiencies either in their personality or their society's norms.[11]
In "A Study of Stalkers" Mullen et al.. (2000)[12] identified five types of stalkers:
Rejected stalkers pursue their victims in order to reverse, correct, or avenge a rejection (e.g. divorce, separation, termination).
Resentful stalkers pursue a vendetta because of a sense of grievance against the victims – motivated mainly by the desire to frighten and distress the victim.
Intimacy seekers seek to establish an intimate, loving relationship with their victim. To many of them the victim is a long-sought-after soul mate, and they were 'meant' to be together.
Incompetent suitors, despite poor social or courting skills, have a fixation, or in some cases a sense of entitlement to an intimate relationship with those who have attracted their amorous interest. Their victims are most often already in a dating relationship with someone else.
Predatory stalkers spy on the victim in order to prepare and plan an attack – often sexual – on the victim.
The 2002 National Victim Association Academy defines an additional form of stalking: The vengeance/terrorist stalker. Both the vengeance stalker and terrorist stalker (the latter sometimes called the political stalker) do not, in contrast with some of the aforementioned types of stalkers, seek a personal relationship with their victims but rather force them to emit a certain response favourable to the stalker. While the vengeance stalker's motive is "to get even" with the other person whom he/she perceives has done some wrong to them (e.g., an employee who believes is fired without justification from their job by their superior), the political stalker intends to accomplish a political agenda, also using threats and intimidation to force his/her target to refrain and/or become involved in some particular activity, regardless of the victim's consent.[13]
Many stalkers Template:Quantify fit categories with paranoia disorders. Intimacy-seeking stalkers often have delusional disorders involving erotomanic delusions. With rejected stalkers, the continual clinging to a relationship of an inadequate or dependent person couples with the entitlement of the narcissistic personality, and the persistent jealousy of the paranoid personality. In contrast, resentful stalkers demonstrate an almost "pure culture of persecution," with delusional disorders of the paranoid type, paranoid personalities, and paranoid schizophrenia.[12]
One of the uncertainties in understanding the origins of stalking is that the concept is now widely understood in terms of specific behaviors[14] which are found to be offensive and/or illegal. As discussed above, these specific (apparently stalking) behaviors may have multiple motivations.
In addition, the personality characteristics that are often discussed as antecedent to stalking may also produce behavior that is not stalking as conventionally defined. Some research suggests there is a spectrum of what might be called "obsessed following behavior." People who complain obsessively and for years, about a perceived wrong or wrong-doer, when no one else can perceive the injury—and people who cannot or will not "let go" of a person or a place or an idea—comprise a wider group of persons that may be problematic in ways that seem similar to stalking. Some of these people get extruded from their organizations—they may get hospitalized or fired or let go if their behavior is defined in terms of illegal stalking. But many others do good or even excellent work in their organizations and appear to have just one focus of tenacious obsession.[15]
Stalking by groups
According to a U.S. Department of Justice special report[16] a significant number of people reporting stalking incidents claim that they had been stalked by more than one person, with 18.2% reporting that they were stalked by two people, 13.1% reporting that they had been stalked by three or more. The report did not break down these cases into numbers of victims who claimed to have been stalked by several people individually, and by people acting in concert.
According to a United Kingdom study by Sheridan and Boon [17], in 5% of the cases they studied there was more than one stalker, and 40% of the victims said that friends or family of their stalker had also been involved. In 15% of cases, the victim was unaware of any reason for the harassment.
False claims of stalking and delusions of persecution
In 1999, Pathe, Mullen and Purcell wrote that popular interest in stalking was promoting false claims.[18] In 2004, Sheridan and Blaauw said that they estimated that 11.5% of claims in a sample of 357 reported claims of stalking were false.[19]
According to Sheridan and Blaauw, 70% of false stalking reports were made by people suffering from delusions of persecution.[19][20] Another study estimated the proportion of false reports that were due to delusions as 64%.[21]
"Gang stalking"
Multiple news reports have described how groups of Internet users have cooperated to exchange detailed conspiracy theories of "gang stalking" involving coordinated activities by large numbers of people and the use of psychotronic weapons and other alleged mind control techniques. These are generally reported by external observers as being examples of belief systems, as opposed to reports of objective phenomena.[22][23]
Epidemiology and prevalence
According to a study conducted by Purcell, Pathé and Mullen (2002), 23% of the Australian population reported having been stalked.[24]
Stieger, Burger and Schild conducted a survey in Austria, revealing a lifetime prevalence of 11% (women: 17%, men: 3%).[25][26] Further results include: 86% of stalking victims were female, 81% of the stalkers were male. Women were mainly stalked by men (88%) while men were almost equally stalked by men and women (60% male stalkers). 19% of the stalking victims reported that they were still being stalked at the time of study participation (point prevalence rate: 2%). To 70% of the victims, the stalker was known, being a prior intimate partner in 40%, a friend or acquaintance in 23% and a colleague at work in 13% of cases. As a consequence, 72% of the victims reported having changed their lifestyle. 52% of former and ongoing stalking victims reported suffering from a currently impaired (pathological) psychological well-being. There was no significant difference between the incidence of stalking in rural and urban areas.
Budd and Mattinson found a lifetime prevalence of 12% in England and Wales (12% overall, 16% female, 7% males).[27]
According to a paper by staff from the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre, a unit established to deal with people with fixations on public figures, 86% of a sample group of 100 people assessed by them appeared to them to suffer from psychotic illness; 57% of the sample group were subsequently admitted to hospital, and 26% treated in the community.[28]
A similar retrospective study published in 2009 in Psychological Medicine based on a sample of threats to the Royal Family kept by the Metropolitan Police Service over a period of 15 years, suggested that 83.6% of the writers of these letters suffered from serious mental illness.[29]
Dressing, Kuehner and Gass conducted a representative survey in a middle-sized German city (Mannheim) and reported a lifetime prevalence of about 12%[30].
Tjaden and Thoennes reported a lifetime prevalence (being stalked) of 8% in women and 2% in males (depending on how strict the definition) in the National violence against women survey.[31]
Laws on harassment and stalking
Every Australian state enacted laws prohibiting stalking during the 1990s, with Queensland was the first state to do so in 1994. The laws vary slightly from state to state, with Queensland's laws having the broadest scope, and South Australian laws the most restrictive. Punishments vary from a maximum of 10 years imprisonment in some states, to a fine for the lowest severity of stalking in others. Australian anti-stalking laws have some notable features. Unlike many US jurisdictions they do not require the victim to have felt fear or distress as a result of the behaviour, only that a reasonable person would have felt this way. In some states, the anti-stalking laws operate extra-territorially, meaning that an individual can be charged with stalking if either they or the victim are in the relevant state. Most Australian states provide the option of a restraining order in cases of stalking, breach of which is punishable as a criminal offence. There has been relatively little research into Australian court outcomes in stalking cases, although Freckelton (2001) found that in the state of Victoria, most stalkers received fines or community based dispositions.
Section 264 of the Criminal Code of Canada, titled "criminal harassment"[32] addresses acts which are termed "stalking" in many other jurisdictions. The provisions of the section came into force in August 1993 with the intent of further strengthening laws protecting women.[33] It is a hybrid offence, which may be punishable upon summary conviction or as an indictable offence, the latter of which may carry a prison term of up to ten years. Section 264 has withstood Charter challenges.[34]
The Chief, Policing Services Program, for Statistics Canada has stated:
"... of the 10,756 incidents of criminal harassment reported to police in 2006, 1,429 of these involved more than one accused."
This is approximately one case in eight, and matches the percentage of cases reported by the U.S. Department of Justice, for the same period, which involve multiple stalkers, as opposed to the often presumed obsessed single stalker.
In 2000, Japan enacted a national law to combat this behaviour, after the murder of Shiori Ino.[35] Acts of stalking can be viewed as "interfering [with] the tranquility of others' lives and are prohibited under petty offence laws.
Following a series of high-profile incidents that came to public attention in the past years, a law was proposed in June 2008, and became effective in February 2009, making a criminal offence, punishable with imprisonment ranging from six months up to four years, any "continuative harassing, threatening or persecuting behaviour which: (1) causes a state of anxiety and fear in the victim(s), or; (2) ingenerates within the victim(s) a motivated fear for his/her own safety or for the safety of relatives, Template:Sic, or others tied to the victim him/herself by an affective relationship, or; (3), forces the victim(s) to change his/her living habits". If the perpetrator of the offense is a subject tied to the victim by kinship or that is or has been in the past involved in a relationship with the victim (i.e. current or former/divorced/split husband/wife or fiancée), and/or if the victim is a pregnant woman or a minor, the sanction can be elevated up to six years of incarceration.[36]
There is no offence which is described in law as "stalking". An attempt to create such an offence by the Stalking Bill 1996 failed. It was felt that the proposed offence failed to distinguish between reasonable and unreasonable conduct.
In England and Wales, "harassment" was criminalised by the enactment of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, which came into force on June 16, 1997. It makes it a criminal offence, punishable by up to six months imprisonment, to pursue a course of conduct which amounts to harassment of another on two or more occasions. The court can also issue a restraining order, which carries a maximum punishment of five years imprisonment if breached. In England and Wales, liability may arise in the event that the victim suffers either mental or physical harm as a result of being stalked (see R. v. Constanza).
Already before the enactment of the Act, the Malicious Communications Act 1988 and the Telecommunications Act 1984 (now the Communications Act 2003) criminalised indecent, offensive or threatening phone calls and the sending of an indecent, offensive or threatening letter, electronic communication or other article to another person.
Obtaining evidence of stalking is a simple procedure using the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act which enables the authorities to quickly obtain records of communication.
In Scotland, provision is made under the Protection from Harassment Act against stalking. It is not a criminal offence, however, but falls under the law of delict. Victims of stalking may sue for interdict against an alleged stalker, or a non-harassment order, breach of which is an offence.
The first state to criminalize stalking in the United States was California in 1990[37] due to several high profile stalking cases in California, including the 1982 attempted murder of actress Theresa Saldana,[38] the 1988 massacre by Richard Farley,[39] the 1989 murder of actress Rebecca Schaeffer,[40] and five Orange County stalking murders also in 1989.[39][41] The first anti-stalking law in the United States, California Penal Code Section 646.9, was developed and proposed by Municipal Court Judge John Watson of Orange County. Watson with U.S. Congressman Ed Royce introduced the law in 1990.[41][42] Also in 1990, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) began the United States' first Threat Management Unit, founded by LAPD Captain Robert Martin.
Within three years[41] thereafter, every state in the United States followed suit to create the crime of stalking, under different names such as criminal harassment or criminal menace. The Driver's Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) was enacted in 1994 in response to numerous cases of a driver's information being abused for criminal activity, examples such as the Saldana and Schaeffer stalking cases.[43][44] The DPPA prohibits states from disclosing a driver's personal information without consent by State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2006[45] made stalking punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). The law took effect on 1 October 2007.[46] This law brings the UCMJ in line with federal laws against stalking. Laws against stalking in different jurisdictions vary, and so do the definitions. Some make the act illegal as it stands, while others do only if the stalking becomes threatening or endangers the receiving end. Many states in the US also recognize stalking as grounds for issuance of a civil restraining order. Since this requires a lower burden of proof than a criminal charge, laws recognizing non-criminal allegations of stalking suffer the same risk of abuse seen with false allegations of domestic violence.[citation needed]
According to the Department of Justice survey, a vast majority of stalking cases are not even taken to criminal court.[citation needed] Prosecutors often find it difficult to prove stalking beyond a reasonable doubt compared to other crimes.

Steve O'Brien of Job.com talks about the role of AI in hiring
I had a chance to interview Steve O'Brien, who recently joined Job.com as its new president of staffing. The former vice president of Monster.com's Talent Fusion, Steve brings over fifteen years of diversified recruitment industry experience in agency search, boutique retained projects, global Recruitment Solutions, and Agile Recruitment Services to his new role.
He specializes in Agile Recruiting Services, integrating Talent Acquisition with Talent Management through assessment sciences, and designing predictive analytics for Talent Acquisition processes. Steve holds a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy from The Pennsylvania State University, is married to his wife Alisha, and has two beautiful children.
You can read the complete interview below:
1. AI is revolutionizing many industries right now, and recruitment is no exception. A large number of employers are turning to AI-powered platforms like HireVue to find better-qualified candidates at the right time from the available talent pool. Can you elaborate on some of the intriguing ways companies use AI to recruit employees today?
Companies (like Job.com) are using AI to make real-time job suggestions, leveraging OSINT data helping make job application suggestions closer to employees' desired next step and at a time closer to when they're open to hearing them. They're using AI to identify adjacent skills between roles helping companies and markets utilize existing talent more effectively. E.g., Did you know that the core skills and capabilities of a bookkeeper have tremendous overlap with those of a paralegal, only a paralegal pays more and has better job growth prospects across the next 10 years? Win/win for the employee, the market, and employer.
They're using data from video interviews to help identify personality attributes that lead to better team composition and job fit. They're tying job search data to social networks making real-time customer networking suggestions for candidates that can accelerate application review and give candidate insights from current employees of the companies that candidates are applying to. They're enabling job matches to replace job search, so candidates can focus their time on personal development, career discovery, and exploring company brands rather than combing through pages of postings.
The net of a lot of this is like many applications of AI – helping users work with existing processes but improve their ability to manage the unmanageable amounts of data in those processes … and while they're at it adding in delightful experiences that make users feel "seen, known, and anticipated".
2. Most AI tools evaluate candidates on grades based on predetermined traits. Often people undergo these evaluation processes without knowing what exactly AI is grading for. Some career centers have even gone so far as to establish their own hiring AI. What is your take on this?
This application tends to be concentrated in video. The user experience for this application can be polarizing. It still results in a fairly synthetic interaction between the employer and the candidate. Companies like HireVue are endeavoring to validate personality assessments based on observable behavior, but there is further research needed. For example, an "in real life" interview is a dialogue, and a video interview is an extemporaneous speech. This feels unnatural if you anticipate an interview experience and not a speaking engagement. Career centers are spot on to prepare graduates for the many factors that will enable them to perform their best in what is currently an unfamiliar communication vehicle. I expect that the use of 1-way video (asynchronous) will evolve towards is helping companies place desirable candidates better rather than screen out undesirable applicants and towards helping TA departments (recruiters) advocate for their candidates better. E.g., a video interviewing platform Wedge is exploring "storytelling" as a user experience to help recruiters produce short highlights for interviewers on the candidates hiring managers will be meeting.
3. Although innovation in HR and recruitment is booming, more and more new AI-driven solutions for various problems are emerging. What are the major challenges today in using AI systems for hiring?
Descriptive analytics and matching are becoming more mainstream while producing novel and unexpected suggestions or insights buried in the heaps of data and user interactions are becoming the focus of next-stage technology. For example, the single most likely job an Accountant will get next is an Accounting job. Unsurprising. But according to job.com's 60 million career records, although the single most likely job will be an Accountant – 70% of the time, an accountant will do something completely unexpected and not in accounting.
AI can help candidates explore what those unforeseen paths in the 70% look like and help them pursue them on purpose rather than by accident. AI is also helping organizations look at match and alignment from a team rather than merely an individual lens. The performance of most organizations is less tightly tied to the presence of the right people in the right job and more tied to the right people in the right jobs on the right teams. As rates of job change continue to rise and the value of "basic cognitive" (as McKinsey refers to it) capabilities decrease, predicting team cohesion will be more important for organizational performance in the next ten years than it ever has been.
4. AI can analyze data and replicate repetitive tasks to help recruiters with their response times, communications, etc. Still, some people firmly believe that AI can never take their place since it cannot see the bigger picture! What is your take? Do you think we will ever have an AI-based autonomous system in hiring?
I don't see AI replacing humans in recruiting. However, it will pick up and automate low complexity tasks allowing time to be reallocated to very human activities such as generating agreement, persuasion, and work requiring creativity. Besides, it will restore the impact of existing teams in areas where data overload has eroded influence.
In the past five years, the average number of applicants per job and applications submitted by candidates has risen while simultaneously companies bemoan not being able to find the right talent and job seekers the right job. Some of this is captured in talent shortages, sure. We all know the STEM and nursing talent markets are imbalanced. But that doesn't entirely explain the headlines. We also have decision overload hurting process efficiency, and AI is helping address this problem and restore fidelity to existing processes.
5. What is the future of AI and machine learning in recruitment, perhaps in the next 5-10 years?
The future holds several opportunities in recruitment.
Allowing companies to redeploy their workforce just in time-based on adjacent skill models and current workforce predictions.
Companies knowing in advance a team will gel and enabling that to occur faster. Providing transformation roadmaps to executives highlighting talent strategies that differentiate based on specific enterprise data for acquisition, retraining, and redeployment.
Allowing the candidates to tell their career stories in more engaging and agile ways (instead of rewriting ten different resumes).
Helping candidates navigate the new career lattice that has replaced our fathers' career ladder and develop themselves in a workplace where skill demand and job titles are evolving rapidly, and helping labor markets more efficiently leverage their talent populations keeping work impactful and workers doing rewarding activities as AI comes alongside them in the workplace.

Combate Americas has announced a two-part series, "Combate Americas: Mexico vs. Spain".
The events are set to feature a bevy of rising prospects from the two countries, with the first event, scheduled for March 8, to be held in Mexico, and the second, scheduled for the fall, to be held in Spain.
The March 8 event will take place at the Arena Coliseo in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, an arena long renowned for its involvement with combat sports, first promoting a boxing event in 1959, and today well-known for its prominence in the "Lucha Libre" realm.
The event will be aired in both English and Spanish. The Spanish broadcast will be on both Univision and Univision Deportes at 12:00 AM/9:00 PM (ET/PT), while the English broadcast – in the United States and Canada – will be streamed on DAZN at 10:00 PM/7:00 PM (ET/PT).
In addition to the announcement of the event, Combate also revealed three feature bouts that will take place on the card.
The card's main event is a lightweight bout contested between Mexico's Alvaro "Chango" Herrera (9-6) and Spain's Ignacio "Levium Armorum" Capella (5-1).
Herrera, 29, last fought for the UFC. An eleven-year professional, Herrera competed on the local circuit in his native Mexico before earning a place on The Ultimate Fighter: Latin America 2, which took place in 2015.
Though eliminated by Hector Aldana on the show, Herrera was signed to the UFC. He debuted on that season's Ultimate Fighter Finale, where he knocked out Vernon Ramos in just thirty seconds.
After his UFC debut, Herrera hit a skid, dropping three straight fights to Vicente Luque, Jordan Rinaldi, and Devon Powell, respectively.
In his Combate Americas debut, Herrera will look to return to his winning ways at home – fighting in his native Guadalajara, but he will face a stiff test in Capella.
Capella, 26, has never looked better. Since dropping a decision loss in his professional debut back in 2014, Capella has rattled off five straight wins.
All five have been finishes, with four wins coming via TKO. Capella has predominantly competed on the French regional circuit, where he has earned a reputation as one of the country's top lightweights.
He will look to take out his toughest opponent yet, Herrera, in his Combate debut.
In the card's co-main event, another Guadalajara native, Victor "Periquito" Madrigal (7-2), will face Spain's Zebenzui "El Niño Roca" Ruiz (7-2).
Madrigal, 29, is coming off of an incredible performance at Combate Americas 27. The Mexican bantamweight submitted fellow prospect, Cristian Quiñonez, in the third round in a back-and-forth battle.
Madrigal will look to move his Combate record to 2-2 and score another finish against Spain's Ruiz.
Ruiz, 25, will make his Combate Americas debut on the strength of a four-fight winning streak. A staple on Spain's regional circuit, Ruiz has finished all but one of his professional wins with strikes.
A third bout was also announced, this time in the women's atomweight division. Mexico's Alitzel Mariscal (1-0) will look to win her second professional bout against Vanessa "Chiquitina" Rico (3-4).
Mariscal, 20, made her professional debut just last October. Training out of Team Grasso, the famed Guadalajara gym, Mariscal's future looks bright in the sport.
She will take on an experienced opponent in Spain's Rico. Rico, 38, is a twelve-time national champion in judo in her native Spain.
The Spaniard has fought thrice for Combate, amassing a 1-2 record with the promotion. Rico has finished two of her three wins by submission and will look to get back into the win column against Mariscal.
According to the press release, the complete preliminary card will soon be announced.

CFP: Games and Literary Theory Conference 2019 (Kolkata, November 18-20)
Announcement published by Debanjana Nayek on Monday, June 10, 2019
Subject Fields:
Digital Humanities, Literature, Popular Culture Studies, Research and Methodology, Women's & Gender History / Studies
GAMESLIT 2019: Games at the Margin
Call for Papers: Deadline June 30th, 2019
Videogames have grown into a global socio-cultural phenomenon and are now a primary concern of Literary and Cultural Studies as well as the Social Sciences. In a medium that sweeps across geographies (including virtual ones), however, the discourse usually privileges a certain section when it comes to the representation of identity. In a medium, where roleplaying and playing in character is of prime importance, such an ignoring of the marginal and the diverse is indeed problematic.
In one of the first books on the subject, Adrienne Shaw says 'Teaching classes on minority representation in games, I heard this refrain repeated yet again by my students. Video games are a niche medium; they are fantasy environments; and they are designed for a narrow market. Of course games are not diverse—so what? […] I realized that I recognized myself in my participants' responses. After all, I too grew up playing a medium for which I was not the primary market and media in which only certain aspects of my identity were ever shown' (Shaw 2015). Shaw's concern is an urgent one and recent events related to racism, sexism and other kinds of discrimination in the videogame industry and in the content of the games, highlights the importance of academic dialogues around gaming 'at the margins', as it were.
These concerns, of course, echo much older debates on diversity and difference in Literary and Cultural Studies. Identity and indeed, even the body, are constructs in the Foucauldian framework of biopower and beyond the actual control of individuals. Thinkers such as Judith Butler, Julia Kristeva and bell hooks point out how the the body is marginalised based on gender, race and class. Similarly, the constructedness of the 'Orient' and the 'Oriental' in colonial discourse as shown by Edward Said and also how the colonial system also renders certain groups of people 'subaltern' and how this affects the discourse of diversity as Gayatri Chakravarty Spivak and Homi Bhabha make evident. Often, the discourse of diversity and the margins pervades games as well although the connection is not often made evident in the older and more traditional disciplines.
Recent games scholarship has started addressing issues of diversity in games through the new Diversity Group that is now part of the Digital Games Research Association (DiGRA), books on gender, race and colonialism (Shaw 2015; Murray 2018; Mukherjee 2017) as well as edited journal issues and panel discussions. As crucial to discussions of both games and literary theory, these issues form the main theme of this year's Games and Literary Theory Conference, being held in Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), India.
We welcome papers on but not restricted to the following topics:
Representations of diverse games in literature.
Remediating marginality: from non-canonical literature to games.
Studying games with literary theory: from the center to the margins.
Marginalized discourses of gaming culture.
Peripheral aesthetics and central gameplay: interplay between locally-inspired game content and gameplay conventions.
Digital and non-digital games as tools to resist inequality and erasure.
Representations of gender, queerness, race, class and caste in games vis a vis literature.
Applying concepts of colonization, migration, and diasporas in understanding game spaces.
The connection between violence in gaming and White, cis-heteropatriarchal gender norms.
The language of the "digital frontier" in gaming and tech cultures
Diversity practices and games studies.
Empathy games that engage with racism and the 'refugee' experience.
Decolonizing struggles in the gaming industry around labour and money
Digital Humanities from the margins vis a vis gamer culture in Global North vs. the Global South.
We are looking for abstracts of at least 300 and no more than 700 words; more information is available on the conference website: https://gameslit2019.wordpress.com. Please submit your abstracts via EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gameslit2019 on or before June 30th.

Wavetrain, Wire
Hello, my wavetrain's 14th and last wagon has a bunch of friends that currently have regrouped for the third time in 30 years, overtime they released 9 studio albums aswell as a lot of live albums and meanwhile dvd's. All this between their solo / duo works under a number of monikers, that easily double their musical output. They never had a hit or sold a lot and yet they rank as one of the most influential bands of the past decades. They generated the impetus for a number of very dedicated websites. So who am i talking about, well it's .....
Wire, they formed in London in 1976, after some early line-up changes which resulted in the departure of the hot-headed George Gill (the band's original frontman), a final line-up emerged which consisted of Colin Newman (vocals, guitar), Graham Lewis (bass), Bruce Gilbert (guitar) and Robert Gotobed (drums). Although the members of the group have emphasised the necessity constantly to take on new creative roles, this division of musical labour persisted with only minor variations throughout the band's life. A gig at the Roxy in early 1977 proved auspicious, they met EMI's Mike Thorne, who was recording groups for a live punk album, The Roxy, London WC2. Thorne included two Wire tracks and was then instrumental in bringing the band to EMI in September. By then, with Newman writing most of the music, they were eager to record before they lost interest in material, abandoned it, and moved on; a pattern that would define the group.
Wire's debut, Pink Flag (1977) was a landmark of early punk rock. The songs are very diverse in mood and style, but most use a very minimalistic punk approach, unorthodox structures, and several songs under a minute in length; "Field Day For The Sundays" clocks in at only 28 seconds.Chairs Missing followed in 1978, and found Wire stepping back a bit from the stark minimalism of Pink Flag, with longer, more atmospheric songs and innovative synthesizer parts by producer Mike Thorne. The experimentation was even more prominent on 154 (1979) which found a clear division within the direction of the group. There were some of Wire's poppiest moments in "Map Ref." & "The 15th", but the band started to show an experimental and darker side on tracks such as "A Touching Display" & "The Other Window". Many of the songs also showcased bassist Graham Lewis in a much more prominent role on lead vocals.
In 1979, however, creative differences pulled the band in various directions, culminating in the Document & Eyewitness LP (1981), a recording of a performance that featured almost exclusively new material. The material was much more loose and experimental than before. The LP also came packaged with an EP of a different performance that was also new material, but this was presumably material intended for Wire's never-recorded 4th album. Some of this material ended up being included on Colin Newman's post-Wire solo albums.
There followed a period of suspension (1981-1985) in favour of solo and non-Wire collaborative projects, including Dome, Cupol, Duet Emmo, and several Colin Newman solo efforts. In 1985, the group reformed to renewed critical acclaim, but without carving quite the same niche as in the earlier decade. Reforming as a "beat combo" (a joking reference to early 60's beat music or even possibly beatnicks), the group became increasingly immersed in electronics. The band released It's Beginning To And Back Again, in 1989 as a "live" album of mostly reworked versions of songs from The Ideal Copy and A Bell Is a Cup...Until It Is Struck. Ostensibly a live album IBTABA was in fact based on live recordings, but they were so heavily re-arranged, edited and remixed in the studio that it is doubtful whether IBTABA would qualify as a live album in the most common sense. One of the few new songs on the album, "Eardrum Buzz", became the band's biggest charting single.The increased use of electronics on the album Manscape caused Gotobed to famously fire himself in 1990 when he realised a drummer was unnecessary, even at the band's live gigs. In response to his departure, Wire dropped one letter in their name to become "Wir" (still pronounced "wire"). Wir released The First Letter in 1991, which received a mixed reception, but whose electronics-heavy sound was arguably ahead of its time.
The demise of the group in 1993 was barely noticed by the music press. Around this time there was a brief revival of interest in Wire among British independent bands, some of whom closely mimicked the sounds and structures of the early records. Recent rock critics, however, have often dismissed the group as art-school elitists who disappeared up their own backsides during the 1980s. Yet the public interest in Wire (and their numerous current projects) remains strong for many. Their enduring appeal for other musicians is attested by the release, in 1996, of the deliciously diverse tribute album Whore. As the contributions on that record suggest, Wire are still influential and inspiring. And they remain, in the opinion of many enthusiasts, the most underrated musical and poetic artists of their time.
With Gotobed back in the line-up (now using his birth name, Robert Grey), the group initially reworked a substantial chunk of its back catalogue for a performance at Royal Festival Hall. Great receptions during a short tour of the U.S. and a number of UK gigs convinced the band to continue. The band's sound changed again, to one largely based around clockwork guitar hooks and very fast drum beats. Two EPs and an album Send (2003) followed, as well as live collaborations with stage designer Es Devlin and artists Jake and Dinos Chapman.
Two books about Wire exist: Kevin S. Eden's "Everybody Loves a History" and Alessandro Libutti's "Exploded Views"(written in Italian) . Kevin Eden's illuminating biography (mainly comprising interview material) appeared in Serious Art Form publications in 1991.

Pink Flags hurried tracks lack verses or choruses and are often the order of the day (Field Day for the Sundays clocks in at a diminutive 28 seconds), aggressive, grim, unhurried efforts such as Reuters and Strange break up the frenetic nature of the album with a jolt, bringing to mind a punk band marching through treacle. One of Pink Flag's shining stars, however, is the glorious pop of Mannequin. Who would have thought that a band that fashioned the 'aggro' of 12XU could create something so sweet?
Chairs Missing is a quantum leap from Pink Flag. Although the vestiges of Wire's punk roots remain, they are forced into new shapes: Another the Letter largely replaces guitars with arpeggio keyboard loops, while Too Late's dense atmosphere makes most of Pink Flag's punkier numbers seem lightweight by comparison. Elsewhere, Mike Thorne's electronics provide new paths for Wire, enabling the band to produce the chilling, bleak Marooned—one of the most beautiful pieces by the quartet.
154 completed Wire's initial run of albums, before the band spectacularly self-destructed during the live shows that birthed Document and Eyewitness. The cracks were already showing by this point: the coherence so evident in Chairs Missing had been replaced by a schism, with the two sides of the band—the experimental (Gilbert and Lewis) and the pop/rock (Newman and Gotobed)—threatening to tear the album to shreds. The result is an uncomfortable album where a beautiful pop ode to a field rubs shoulders with harrowing experimental compositions.The brutal way in which the album lurches from one end of the music spectrum to the other is fascinating, 154 remains a classic album. In 92 Play it Again Sam released a compilation of Wire's first 3 albums, well here it is.

By 1980 Wire's contract with EMI had broken down and the band decided to 'challenge' the audience at what was to be their final gig in five years. What ensued was a set of chaotic, partially improvised pieces alongside rather dubious performance art. Although it's quite interesting to read about this part of Wire's history, it's not quite the same thing to actually listen to it.
The songs from Notre Dame Hall possess an astonishing raw energy. Ally in Exile is as tense as its title and Witness to the Fact thrills with its weird chord progression. Go Ahead gives the unvarnished truth about Wire's increasingly strained relationship with EMI. "We thought of ourselves as geniuses", recalls Newman. Unfortunately, Wire were considered eccentric untouchables by their paymasters. This belief gap between band and label is most apparent in Electric Ballroom tracks such as the protracted, patience-testing 5/10—not without charm to die-hard Wire fans, but a decidedly uncommercial sprawl to unsympathetic ears. The hostility of the Electric Ballroom audience was matched only by the revulsion of the record executives. Perhaps these reactions were justified: the lack of discipline and structure in the Electric Ballroom tracks explains why few of these songs impress like those on Newman's contemporaneous solo effort A-Z. Nevertheless, Wire, in typical style, had done their own thing, regardless of the consequences.

P'o - Whilst Climbing Thieves Vie For Attention (80 ^ 69mb)
Originally formed with the intention of being a live band by A.C. Marias, Bruce Gilbert, David Tidball, Graham Lewis and Peter Price, P'o hastily recorded this album when Peter Price announced plans to emigrate. It begins with the laid back Time and Time. If it were not for the industrial noises that appear, this might pass for a pop track. The simple lyric from Graham, coupled with Angela Conway's ghostly vocal textures create an effective 'voice', something of a contrast to the previous Dome release . Back to Back is less melodic but more energetic, highlighting Price's ethnic drumming style which appears in several other tracks. The bulk of this collection is very listenable but too many tracks rely on mangling a pop riff and playing ethnic drumming over it. The album's vague pop leaning (at least in the fact that there's no out and out abstraction) may also tempt more conventional listeners to another side of the 'greater Wire' story.
01 - Time And Time (3:26)
02 - Back To Back (2:57)
03 - Holy Joe (4:00)
04 - Earl (3:38)
05 - Vanite (3:15)

07 - I Will (1:07)
08 - Mhona (3:36)
09 - Blind Tim (4:23)
10 - Crystal Streams (2:32)
During their frighteningly productive period in the early 1980s, Bruce Gilbert and Graham Lewis recorded a shop's worth of albums, staged art exhibitions, and produced Desmond Simmons, A.C. Marias and Michael O'Shea. In the midst of this flurry of activity the duo somehow found the time to make the album 3R4 and release two singles for 4AD
The pick of the bunch is undoubtedly R, which opens with clanking percussive noises before giving way to an extended choral sample. Heavily Eno-influenced, it continues to drift while various fragmentary elements appear and disappear. The effect is languid and beautifully mesmerising.

He Said - Take Care (88 now in flac 405mb)
Take Care is very much a late ' 80s album , both the sound and programming of the drum machines, along with much of the instrumentation, is a product of that age and, as such, Take Care sounds dated. However, if you can get over this you will find a number of great songs that would challenge anything Lewis was involved in until embarking on the He Said Omala and Hox outings. Musically, much of the album, is seemingly fairly standard , but with Lewis' usual skew adding layers of texture and odd rhythms in the background. F.i. , Tongue Ties is a classic that contains a whole selection of great rhythms, riffs, and an utterly fantastic chorus. Experimentation also exists with two instrumental pieces, Half Way House and Get Out of that Rain (both commissioned for the Michael Clark performance). Because we Must is a brooding piece and contains a beautifully rendered guitar line. Production-wise, it ends up sounding rather like what New Order would attempt a few years later with Republic's slower tracks.

13 - Could You? (Too-edit) (5:01)
Colin Newman - A-Z (80 now in Flac 353mb)
After Wire split in two after parting company with EMI in 1980, Colin Newman took with him drummer Robert Gotobed and producer Mike Thorne to follow his pop-oriented leanings. The result was A-Z.
A-Z continually shifts between utterly sublime and vaguely irritating. The album is full of energy, but it sounds somewhat over-dramatic and unsophisticated compared to the late '70s Wire albums and Newman's later work. Thorne's production ensures that keyboards often drown out everything else thereby offering a somewhat one-dimensional sound. Had all of the tracks been as satisfying as Alone or Image then this would fare much better.

17 - Don't Bring Reminders 2:22
Wire - A Bell Is A Cup Until It Is Struck (88 now in Flac 452mb)
A Bell is a Cup Until it is Struck continues the 'beat combo' concept which began with The Ideal Copy , but this release is less aggressive. Most tracks build on Gotobed's metronome drumbeats with meshes of glittery guitars, droning basslines and keyboard textures. Newman's delivery throughout is softly spoken, in stark contrast to that on The Ideal Copy, but this only serves to create an album sometimes devoid of emotion and energy.Although the material on this album struggles against lethargic playing and overly-slick production, there are some gems waiting to be discovered. The swimmingly melodic Kidney Bingos is a case in point, juxtaposing a jaunty 'pop' number with a number of tabloid headlines. It highlight the absurdity of mass media via Newman's softly sung vocals over a combination of hypnotic, melodic patterns and impenetrable yet catchy lyrics . It makes for surreal, brainy pop.

Thanks, some great stuff here. I'm only downloading a couple items because I've bought most of this already. The review of A-Z (from Wireviews?) must not be allowed to stand unchallenged, though. I bought it on vinyl back in 1981/82 (the same day I bought New Order's Movement) and it's always been one of my favourite Wire-related albums. I was glad to buy it again on CD when the expanded version came out. For that matter, I disagree with the Bell is a Cup review, too; that's another Wire fave of mine. (154 was my introduction to Wire and it remains my favourite.)
Yeah!! Thanx a lot!! Kooool & Great music.
Great post! I downloaded both parts of Document and Eyewitness but couldn't unzip, winrar said there was an unexpected break - am I doing something wrong?
Just came across this, btw: http://sheerinertia.blogspot.com/2007/06/wire-drill.html
Any chance at all of Hail by He Said showing up?
Hello, first to the 1st commenter, yes it was too negative, i guess it came because of the two tracks ending side a and b (6 & 12)thatrattled me a little, but i agree that A _ Z is a great album thats why i picked it ( could have chosen singing fish or not to) As for The Bell, i have to admit it got kinds lost between the rest and at the time (88) i was into much more up tempo/harder stuff.
As for unzipping problems i'll point to wavetrain 11th wagon comments, that maybe of help, or else redownload.
He Said's Hail, if i had it i would have included it,but..alas.
best of luck, Rho
Sorry, me again! Re-downloaded Doc & Eye, used 7zip and still a problem.?
154 big THANX. I'm a Wire fan i haven`t got the P'o record (i have the rest on vinyl) so this reay made my day.
Great listening to He Said: Take Care again for the first time in many years. I still have that and Hail on vinyl, but don't listen to oldfashioned records any longer; too lazy, I guess. Also, A Bell is a Cup... is one seriously great album, love the subversiveness of the lyrics.
Hey, I only knew "He Said" yet, but the WIRE stuff is great as well, I have to say! Thanks for the trip back in time, I should get a record player again to listen to my ol' favs' again!
...and finally (as half question, half request): Any chance to see "Hail" by "He Said"?
Peter Tron said...
Excellent stuff, Rho'!
I keep coming back to Wire again & again.
'Send' is one the heaviest and leeriest Lp's that manages to overpower a lot of younger and more 'modern' bands I can think of.
I have 'Dome's' 'yclept' & 'Wire's' 'The Ideal Copy' CD's if you would like them Rho'?
This is brilliant. I'm going to try all of the non-Wire stuff, seeing as I've got all the band's material I could get my hands on. Many thanks.
Great post! Rho'!

Hello Rho-X ...
I was wondering if you could possibly check the link for He Said "Take Care" on your blogspot. I attempted to download this hard-to-find album via the link to Megaupload, but it appears to be invalid.
Would you be so kind as to possibly reupload it? I sincerely thank you for taking the time to read my comment. Take care. ;-)

Hello,is there a chance to reup Document and Eyewitness?I can't find aworking link anywhere...
Than's in advance
Sure Bodhi this is even a re rip now, best of luck
if you could re-up this lot as flac would be amazing...
Hello Anon, i suppose I could but then it would be rather obscure in a 6 year old post. That said i reckon i will get back to Wire next year under the Aetix banner. Until then you'll have to make do
Rho, this was a sensational post, highlighting some less appreciated works by arguably the most restless creatives of the last 40 years. Just to echo the comment from November 2013, if you were ever able to FLAC these, a lot of us out here would be rapt.
Very best from G from Australia
cheers for the re-ups, rho!
i'm glad you mentioned the chorus to 'tongue ties' by he said, as that also blew me away.
possibly one of my most favourite choruses of all time?

Hi - Any chance for a re-up? It would be very appreciate. Thanks in advance.

Could you please reup the extended Wire albums once more? Thank you very much in advance.
A reup of Wire and related would be highly appreciated. Thank you very much.
Great post! Wire a personal fave. Any plans for featuring some of the later stuff?
Please could you re-upload the Wire albums - the links don't work. Many thanks and best wishes. Mal
Thank you so much for re-upping the above. Made my day!
