Learn more at Z.cashWHAT IS ZCASH?
Zcash offers total payment confidentiality, while still maintaining a decentralized network using a public blockchain. Unlike Bitcoin, Zcash transactions automatically hide the sender, recipient, and value of all transactions on the blockchain. Only those with the correct view key can see the contents. Users have complete control and can opt-in to provide others with their view key at their discretion.
Zcash transactions do not depend on the cooperation of other parties. Additionally, full nodes in the Zcash network only need to store a small persistent state.
Since the contents of Zcash transactions are encrypted and private, the system uses a novel cryptographic method to verify payments.
Zcash uses a zero-knowledge proof construction called a zk-SNARK, developed by our team of experienced cryptographers. These constructions allow the network to maintain a secure ledger of balances without disclosing the parties or amounts involved. Instead of publicly demonstrating spend-authority and transaction values, the transaction metadata is encrypted and zk-SNARKs are used to prove that nobody is cheating or stealing.

I have been known to use a line when talking to customers, regarding the risks of undocumented products: "products mixed with boat paddles in blue plastic barrels in some body's garage". Well, in this mind-blowing story from MSNBC, I was only wrong about the color of the barrel:
"To mask the chemicals' taste, the affidavit alleges, Wheat and others mixed the active ingredients with water, blue raspberry Kool-Aid and sugar in 55-gallon drums in a rented storage unit in Duluth, Ga., ending up with a bluish liquid that one witness said looked like Windex."
This example is the exception and not the rule in the supplement business. However, I personally know of unethical business practices, downright fraudulent label claims and product contents consisting of only marketing hype and none of the claimed material.
Bottom line, you damn well better deal with a business of proven integrity, honesty and reliability. Full disclosure (no "proprietary formulations") and third party analytical testing must be foremost in your buying decision.
If you let price and hype be the determinants of your buying decision, you might well be sacrificing your health. Relentless Improvement has earned the reputation as the clear leader in proven purity supplements and nootropics. We will continue to lead as others fall by the wayside.

was done. But the acts of the council were not received at Rome, and the legates asserted that fraud and violence had been employed to procure their consent. Conc. viii. 735 and 964.
VIII. Constantinople, A.D. 869.
The Romans have attributed the authority of a General Council to the synod of 102 bishops who assembled in Constantinople under the Emperor Basilius, in the year 869. They met for the purpose of replacing Ignatius in the See of Constantinople, and of passing censure upon Photius : they also re-enacted the decrees of the deutero-Nicene Synod, respecting image worship. The Bishop of Rome (Adrian) sent representatives to it. Conc. viii. 967—1495.
Constantinople, A.D. 879.
The Greeks ascribe the name and authority of a General Council to the assembly of 383 bishops convened at Constantinople in the year 879. They met after the death of Ignatius, to re-instate Photius in the See of Constantinople, who then entered into an agreement with John, bishop of Rome, whose representatives were present at the council, by virtue of which, as appears in the first canon (R) of this council, their respective sentences of ecclesiastical censure were to be mutually observed. They condemned the preceding council.. During all this period, when the rivalries between the Sees of Old and New Rome were at their greatest height, the mutual charges and recriminations, of forgeries and impostures, in documents, make it very difficult to place much reliance upon the genuineness of the acts ascribed to any of the opposing councils. The conduct of Binius in respect to the Florentine council, to which long afterwards the style of the eighth General Council was given in the acts, altering the eighth into the sixteenth, that it might not clash with the Roman assumption, is an indisputable proof that even if it be true that the Greeks have sometimes interpolated their documents, the Roman advocates are not a whit behind them in the disgraceful practice. For the account of the council, see Conc. ix. 324–329. The canons are given Conc. viii. 1525. The fraud of Binius is pointed out in Beveridge's Pandect. ii. 170.
In this council the creed as it originally stood was confirmed, and all additions forbidden ; thus excluding the interpolation, filioque, concerning the procession of the Holy Spirit, which had been made in the West. In excluding the words they did but the same that had been recommended by the Bishop of Rome, Leo III. in 809, who to put an end to the interpolation, which is supposed to have had its origin in Spain, caused the creed, without these words, to be engraven in Greek and Latin on silver tablets in his chapel (s); and forbade the interpolation to the deputation from the council of Aix-la
Chapelle (T) who waited upon him concerning this matter.
IX. Lateran, 1. A.D. 1123.
The ninth General Council, according to the Romans, is that of upwards of 300 bishops, convened in the Lateran Church at Rome, by Pope Callixtus II. in 1123. It does not appear that there were any Eastern bishops present. The object of their meeting was to oppose the Emperor Henry's interference in the appointment of bishops. An agreement was made between the Pope and the Emperor, the latter engaging that the elections of bishops should be free (u), and the former that the bishops should receive the temporalties from the Emperor. At this council twenty-two canons were made, two of which, namely 3rd and 21st, related to the celibacy of the clergy. Conc. x. 891–900.
X. Lateran, 2. A.D. 1139.
The tenth Council, accounted General, is that of about a thousand bishops convened in the Lateran Church by Pope Innocent the Second in the year 1139. They met to condemn the opinions of Arnold of Brixia, and Peter de Bruis, who are stated to have contended against infant baptism, and against endowments of churches, as well as against the adoration of the cross, and other points. They passed
thirty canons, in one of which, seventh, they revived the old Eustathian heresy, forbidding people to attend the ministrations of the married clergy. Conc. x. 999—1012.
XI. Lateran, 3. A.D. 1179.
The Romans give the style and authority of a General Council, the eleventh in their list, to the Synod of 300 Bishops convened in the Lateran Church at Rome, by Pope Alexander III. in the year 1179. They met, partly to make decrees concerning the election to the Papacy, determining that an election by not less than two-thirds of the College of Cardinals (x) should hold good; and partly to oppose the exertions of the Cathari, Patarcues, and Albigenses, whose religious opinions were beginning to spread extensively. The Roman writers speak of Eastern Bishops being present at this council (Y); but it should be understood that these were not members of the Eastern patriarchates, but of the Roman Schism (z) in those dioceses; where, as at present, in England and Ireland, they had schismatically intruded in opposition to the canonical Bishops who were in possession of the Sees. The Council passed twenty-seven canons. Conc. x. 1503—1534.
XII. Lateran, 4. A.D. 1215.
· The 12th Council to which the Romans ascribe the authority of a General one, was composed of 412 bishops, among whom, according to the Roman accounts, there were present, the patriarchs of Constantinople and Jerusalem, and representatives of those of Antioch and Alexandria. It was assembled in the Lateran Church in the year 1215. It would appear that the chief objects for which it was assembled, were to endeavour to promote a reconciliation between the Greek and Roman Churches; or, in other words, to bring the Greeks under the Roman yoke; and also to put a further check upon the Waldenses and Albigenses. Notwithstanding all the noise which it has made in the world, there is every reason to believe that nothing was really transacted at it. Matthew Paris (AA), Platina (BB), and Nauclerus, as cited by Bishop Taylor (cc), and Du Pin(DD), as cited by Collier, all agree that the seventy canons which pass by the name of the canons of the 4th Lateran Council, were not passed at it: that they were all drawn up by the Pope, who read them to the council, wbich determined nothing concerning them. Bishop Taylor says that the first who published them under the name of the Lateran Council, was Johannes Cochlæus, A.D. 1538. It does not appear that, if anything was transacted at the council, it was ever received by the Greek Church. For the history of the council see Conc. xi. 117–119.

THE CITY GRINDER: The one relentless trick that will DRAMATICALLY CHANGE your property values! Read up before you buy property, or soon you will weep bitter tears of despair!
by worstplans.com
Modern cities face a number of issues due to old buildings. For example:
- Housing that isn't up to code
- Abandoned buildings
- Absentee owners who don't maintain their property
- Urban decay
Fortunately, with an amazing new idea, we can revitalize urban development and create guaranteed construction jobs.
Specifically, the proposal is as follows:
- Build an elevated circular track around City Hall (or some other centrally located building).
- Next, build an enormous miles-long spiked roller that rests on this track (Fig 1). The outer edge of this "city grinder" should reach to the farthest extent of the city.
- The city grinder will now make a slow revolution around the city, consuming everything in its path.
Fig 1: The "city grinder" is a giant spiked roller (left) that levels everything in its path. It is mounted on an elevated circular track that is centered on city hall (right; the building with a yellow roof). In this example, the roller is traveling counter-clockwise (see arrow). Not shown: the roller should actually be rotating quickly in order to grind the buildings it encounters.
The actual time required for a full rotation could be set based on the circumstances of the specific city. Perhaps 100 years for a full rotation would be reasonable.
Although this idea may seem unorthodox, it isn't without precedent: some places have 99-year leases or even 999-year leases instead of permanent ownership.
Thus, the "city grinder" is just a strong formalization of the 99 year lease—except a property won't just revert to government ownership after 99 years, but instead will be ground into dust.
Fig 2: An example of city grinder transit over a 100 year period (as indicated by the numbers; note that the grinder is in the top-right corner of the map in both 1900 and 2000). The star indicates the city hall (or other "center" location). At 100 years for a complete revolution, the city grinder will only need to cut through 3.6 degrees of the city per year. For a circular city that is 10 miles across, the outermost (fastest) point on the city grinder would be traveling at a mere 4.5 feet per day (or 1.4 meters / day). (City circumference = π × 10 miles = 31.4 miles. 31.4 miles / 100 years = 4.5 feet per day).
The only remaining logistical question is: how does traffic pass through the region being ground up? Luckily, this can be easily solved by breaking up the roller into many independent-operating sections that can be elevated. So only a small portion of the city grinder would be blocking traffic at a given time, and this segment could easily be driven around. This wouldn't be any more difficult than dealing with railroad crossings, which all cities already handle.
PROS: Prevents accumulation of obsolete and decaying buildings in a city. Improves urban beautification. Architects and construction workers will have guaranteed employment.
CONS: The roller may be expensive to operate and maintain.

We published an iddentical case some weeks ago. That time the decission was passed by Asturias Appeal judges
Today´s post is about a Madrid Appeal Court Decission (April 2014) which confirms nullity of loan linked to the timeshare purchase.
The key point for the declaration of nullity of the finantial contract is the clear evidence on (1)previous agreement between the Bank and the timeshare company. There was (2)no direct relationship between the lender and the consumers.
This two facts have been enough evidence for the Madrid judges to consider two contracts as linked and to declare nullity of both.

Reading through the glasses of Law 57/68 and corresponding excellent Case Law being produced by Alicante Courts, the filing for liquidation of Herrada del Tollo favours claims against Banks.
Why? Well, simply as every contract can be deemed as cancelled now.
Alicante Courts have already established ( see our legal tip 1175):
- Obligation of Banks in regards to amounts deposited in their accounts is LEGAL-- so deadline to claim is 15 years
-Regardless you have or not an individual certicate, you are guaranteed if there is a guaranteeing agreement between a Bank/ Insurance Company and the developer you contracted with.
- Even if you signed the agreement in the Creditors Meeting, you can enact your rights out of Law 57/68
Keep going ahead!

1. Saw a house I liked
2. Bank sent HIS valuator who valuated the house
3 .Bank granted me a mortgage for buying it, knowing my economic situation
4.I paid till I was made redundant
5. As I could not keep the mortgage payments up, I asked the Bank to keep the house
6.They sent their own valuator who now valued the house at the half of original valuation
7.In short words: I have no house and I still owe the Bank 180.000€ which is what valuator overvalued and the Bank accepted: I mean: They especulate and I am guilty.
Fight the Dation ( offer of the house to the Bank) at Courts. According to LEY 1/2013, DE 14 DE MAYO, DE MEDIDAS PARA REFORZAR LA PROTECCIÓN A LOS DEUDORES HIPOTECARIOS, REESTRUCTURACIÓN
DE DEUDA Y ALQUILER SOCIAL, Bank will repossess the property for a value corresponding to AT LEAST 50% of auction value of the property.
AUCTION VALUE OF THE PROPERTY: It is a BIG summ included in every mortgage deed and which includes: prinicipal, interests and legal costs.
Deffending a right valuation and supervising of the repossession and auction process is ESSENTIAL.
There is new Decission by the European Court of Justice by which, if you are acting agsinst the Bank for floor clause, they can not repossess the property
ACTION.... is the word!

A recent Court Decission by European Court of Justice ( July 17th) establishes that any claimer on Floor Clause in Spain can oppose the Bank trying to enforce a mortgage debt against the floored-mortgaged asset on the existence of this procedure so no embargo can be decided/ practised over it till the Floor case is finished.
This is, literally, the Decission paragraph by the European Court of Justice:
El artículo 7, apartado 1, de la Directiva 93/13/CEE del Consejo, de 5 de abril de 1993, sobre las cláusulas abusivas en los contratos celebrados con consumidores, en relación con el artículo 47 de la Carta de los Derechos Fundamentales de la Unión Europea, debe interpretase en el sentido de que se opone a un sistema de procedimientos de ejecución, como el controvertido en el litigio principal, que establece que el procedimiento de ejecución hipotecaria no podrá ser suspendido por el juez que conozca del proceso declarativo, juez que, en su resolución final, podrá acordar a lo sumo una indemnización que compense el perjuicio sufrido por el consumidor, en la media en que éste, en su condición de deudor ejecutado, no puede recurrir en apelación contra la resolución mediante la que se desestime su oposición a la ejecución, mientras que el profesional, acreedor ejecutante, sí puede interponer recurso de apelación contra la resolución que acuerde el sobreseimiento de la ejecución o declare la inaplicación de una cláusula abusiva.
Provision 7, paragraph 1, of Directive 93/13/CEE of the Council, dated 5th of April 1993, on abusive clauses in contracts with consumers, in relation to provision 47 of Chart of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, must be interpreted as against system of enforcement of procedures, as the one which is decided in this case, which affirms that the mortgage enforcement procedure cannot be suspended by the Judge deciding on the declarative procedure, Judge who, in its final decission might be set a damages compensation as the most.
The consumer, as enforced debtor cannot appeal against the decission rejecting its opposition to the enforcement, opposedly, the enforcer, a professional, can appeal the decission which declares abusive character of clauses or dismiss the enforcement.

NEW WON CASE AGAINST BANCO CAM (now BANCO SABADELL) FOR PROMOCIONES EUROHOUSE FORTUNA HILLS DEVELOPMENT:
The Orihuela First Instance Court Sentence explains in great detail the liability of Banco CAM according to its obligations under LEY 57/1968 for the off-plan deposits paid accounts opened by the developer in Banco CAM.
Importantly the Sentence states that even if a buyer signed the agreement to accept partial future payments from the bankrupt developer, the inalienable rights granted to the buyer by LEY 57/1968 are not affected.
Also the Sentence quotes several examples of Case Law in favour of buyers from the Provincial Appeal Court of Alicante.
Particular points of interest stated by the Judge in the First Instance Sentence are:
"The truth is that an account was opened in which the amounts were paid by purchasers for the purchase of homes and it has not been explained clearly what was done with the amounts paid into the said account.
As CAM opened accounts and received the amounts paid by the purchasers there arises a legal duty to ensure that these amounts were guaranteed by an insurance policy or bank guarantee. Having breached this legal duty the legal liability of the entity is generated.
However in this case its liability may only be extended to the amounts actually entered into accounts at its branches.
It should be noted that Article 1 of Law 57/1968 in an effort to protect purchasers of homes, also involved financial institutions in which those accounts are opened, establishing an obligation for them, which is to require UNDER ITS RESPONSIBILITY (bajo su responsabilidad) that the developer has guaranteed the repayment of the amounts paid in advance to its accounts.
This does not mean that it has to be the account holding banks liability to issue the Guarantees itself, as the guarantor may be another entity. But the term 'under its responsibility' makes it liable to buyers where no security has been provided.
In other words, the bank should not allow the opening of Special Accounts or accepting the deposits without first ensuring that the developer has assumed a legal obligation to ensure repayment of the amounts paid in advance by buyers. If the Bank fails in its legal duty then it is liable for the damages that failure causes to the buyers who may otherwise not be able to obtain repayment of the amounts advanced.
In conclusion I wish to address the potential impact of the bankruptcy proceedings of the corporation PROMOCIONES EUROHOUSE and the existence of a recognised credit for the plaintiffs in the Commercial Court. In this regard, the jurisprudence of our Provincial Court understands that the agreement by the buyer to any repayment proposals offered by a bankrupt developer does not extinguish the Guarantee and the obligations therein.
In this case, it has not been proven in any way that the homes are constructed, so the frustration of the purpose of the Purchase Contract is clear.
In response to the arguments put forward we partially estimate this Lawsuit in its alternative claim, ordering the defendant company, Banco CAM, to refund the amounts paid on account of the purchase price of housing and entered into the accounts of the entity to the sum of XXX,XXX Euro"

After my 15 days break in Zahara de los Atunes:
Case won in Corvera ( Phase I-II) where we based our arguments on delay! So good news after my vacations.
Judge has rejected other claims where a " Loyalty document" was signed by the buyers/claimers. We are appealing those Decissions as, Law 57/68 and its strongly protective spirit stablishes that any time extension needs to be express and written, with a new specific deadline, as a clear new clause of the contract.

Woodchucks, also known as groundhogs, aren't just a furry creature that comes out of hiding in February to tell us whether spring will come early or winter will last longer. They're a nuisance animal that can do significant damage to your flower or vegetable gardens if allowed to.
How Woodchucks Damage Your Yard and Garden
Woodchucks rarely – if ever – burrow into a home or attack humans. However, they do become a nuisance when they dig deep tunnels in your yard. Their tunnel networks can be up to 25-30', and include dedicated chambers for eating and hibernating. While wood chucks don't create as many mounds above the ground as gophers, most woodchuck habitats include at least two larger mounds. These mounds are used for every day access and escaping when the wood chuck feels in danger. The tunnels are also used for mating, sleeping, and hiding.
Woodchucks love fresh vegetables. Especially from your garden. One woodchuck can eat multiple rows of produce in a week. Woodchucks also enjoy fresh, expensive perennials that you worked so hard to plant in the spring.
Woodchuck Facts
Contact Freedom Pest Control Woodchuck Removal Service Today
If you've seen mounds in your yard, plants disappearing, or collapsing walkways you may have a wood chuck problem. Many homeowners may actually see the wood chuck burrowing in the tunnels or scurrying about the yard looking for food.
At Freedom Pest Control, we can eradicate a woodchuck infestation in your yard. Our technician will place have-a-heart traps in areas that show past signs of activity or damage. The technician will return daily to check the traps and inspect for additional signs of activity. Once we have removed the woodchucks our technician can help you determine the best ways to prevent wood chucks from coming back. Ask your service technician about long term eradication today.

CHAMPAGNE corks were popping for Jim and Mabel Fitter today as they celebrated an amazing 70 years of marriage and friendship.
As they reached the rare platinum anniversary, the Binley Woods couple said the secret of their long and happy marriage was that they did everything together.
Jim, aged 93, and Mabel, aged 91, were married at the Baptist Church in Hillmorton, Rugby, on February 6, 1932. They have a daughter, Jean Dickenson, aged 67, and grandson Raymond Dickenson, aged 37, both from Kenilworth.
Mr Fitter, who worked as a driller in a factory in Kenilworth, retired on his 65th birthday in 1973 and his wife, a former catering manager for the Dunlop factory in St George's Road, Lower Stoke, Coventry, joined him the following day.
She said: "It's been a happy marriage although we had a very bad start as there was no money and my husband was out of work for six months at the beginning.
"I definitely didn't expect to be married for this long.
"When we ordered the cake the woman asked me if I was sure it was my 70th wedding anniversary. I told her I was married in 1932 so it definitely was.
"We never go out without one another and we never have done.
"As I said from the first week we were married - when you get married you both have to go up the same road."
The couple grow their own fruit and spend much of their time gardening together at their home.
They intend to celebrate their anniversary with a quiet party at Binley Road Rugby Club in Binley Woods.

MOBILE, Ala. - A Christmas Day tornado outbreak left damage across the U.S. South while holiday travellers in the much colder midsection battled sometimes treacherous driving conditions from freezing rain and blizzard conditions.
Conditions were volatile throughout the afternoon and into the night with tornado warnings in Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. The storms were blamed for two deaths, several injuries, and left homes from Louisiana to Alabama damaged.
In Mobile, Alabama, a tornado or high winds damaged homes and knocked down power lines and large tree limbs in an area just west of downtown around nightfall, said Nancy Johnson, a spokeswoman for the Mobile County Commission. WALA-TV's tower camera captured a large funnel cloud headed toward downtown.
"We haven't verified what it was, but we have an area that we heard has damage to homes," she said.
Meanwhile, blizzard conditions were hitting the nation's midsection.
Earlier in the day, winds toppled a tree onto a pickup truck in the Houston area, killing the driver. Icy roads already were blamed for a 21-vehicle pileup in Oklahoma, and the Highway Patrol says a 28-year-old woman was killed in a crash on a snowy U.S. Highway near Fairview.
The snowstorm that caused numerous accidents pushed out of Oklahoma late Tuesday, carrying with it blizzard warnings for parts of northeast Arkansas, where 10 inches (25 centimetres) of snow was forecast. Freezing rain clung to trees and utility lines in Arkansas and winds gusts up to 30 mph (48 kph) whipped them around, causing about 71,000 customers to lose electricity.
Blizzard conditions were possible for parts of Illinois, Indiana and western Kentucky with predictions of 4 to 7 inches (10 to 17.5 centimetres) of snow.
No injuries were confirmed immediately, but fire crews were still making door-to-door checks in the hardest hit areas of Mobile. The Mobile Fire-Rescue Department, which was providing storm updates through Twitter, said a high school was damaged and that there was a gas leak at a nearby apartment building.
An apparent tornado caused damage in the west Alabama town of Grove Hill, located about 80 miles (130 kilometres) north of Mobile.
Mary Cartright said she was working at the Fast Track convenience store in the town on Christmas evening when the wind started howling and the lights flickered, knocking out the store's computerized cash registers.
"We've had some pretty heavy weather," said Cartright in a phone interview. "Our cash registers are down so our doors are closed."
Trees fell on a few houses in central Louisiana's Rapides Parish but there were no injuries reported and crews were cutting trees out of roadways to get to people in their homes, said sheriff's Lt. Tommy Carnline. Near McNeill, Mississippi, a likely tornado damaged a dozen homes and sent eight people to the hospital, none with life-threatening injuries, said Pearl River County emergency management agency director Danny Manley.
At least three tornadoes were reported in Texas, though only one building was damaged, according to the National Weather Service. Tornado watches were in effect across southern Louisiana and Mississippi.
More than 400 flights nationwide were cancelled by the evening, according to the flight tracker FlightAware.com. More than half were cancelled into and out of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport that got a few inches (centimetres) of snow.
Christmas lights also were knocked out with more than 100,000 customers without power in Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama.
The holiday may conjure visions of snow and ice, but twisters this time of year are not unheard of. Ten storm systems in the last 50 years have spawned at least one Christmastime tornado with winds of 113 mph (182 kph) or more in the South, said Chris Vaccaro, a National Weather Service spokesman in Washington, via email.
The most lethal were the storms of Dec. 24-26, 1982, when 29 tornadoes in Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi killed three people and injured 32.
In Mobile, a large section of the roof on the Trinity Episcopal Church is missing and the front wall of the parish wall is gone, said Scott Rye, a senior warden at the church in the Midtown section of the city.
On Christmas Eve, the church with about 500 members, was crowded for services.
"Thank God this didn't happen last night," Rye said.
The church finished a $1 million-plus renovation campaign in June 2011, which required the closure of the historic sanctuary for more than a year.
Associated Press writers Jay Reeves in Birmingham, Alabama, Ramit Plushnick-Masti in Houston, Chuck Bartels in Little Rock, Arkansas, and AP Business Writer Daniel Wagner in Washington, contributed to this report.

I know nothing about light boards. I'm doing a show in an auditorium with an Elements V2 ETC light board. Someone accidentally pushed one of the buttons (she thinks it was the small clicks button under the house lights slider) and then we had trouble turning off the house lights. We were able to bring down the stage lights, but the house lights wouldn't come down. We turned off the board, but when we turned it back on, nothing worked. None of the lights would turn on.
We're desperate to figure this out. We haven't been able to get ahold of anyone from the school, and we have a show tomorrow afternoon. Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
they are 24/7. you're asked to leave a message, they will call you back within 20 minutes.
"A 15-minute response time: that's our service commitment, any time, any day"
Thank you for letting me know that. I called and left a message.
We're not sure what happened originally, although someone accidentally pressed a button on the board. But ultimately the DMX had been turned to offline.
how are you trying to turn on lights? from the faders? from cues (Go button)? manually (keypad and then setting a level e.g. with the intensity wheel)?
when you try to turn on lights what does the monitor say? the levels on the monitor either correspond with what's happening on stage (i.e. monitor shows nothing happening) or with the commadns on the board (i.e. monitor shows levels)
From the faders. Levels on monitor do not correspond with what's happening on stage
Monitor will say, i.e., 100% if I turn a fader up but light does nothing
are you in Live mode? (the command line on the monitor says LIVE in gold letters)
select a channel (type 1 Enter, where 1 is a channel number of a light that doesn't react). press About.
in About on the right hand side click Patch. does it show the correct DMX address for that channel and does it say 255 in the DMX column if channel 1 is at 100%?
I think I was in blind mode, then we tried switching to live to fix it with no luck
I don't know about the second question.
it's probably easiest if you call ETC's technical support, they're available 24/7 :
For technical support in the Americas, please call 608-831-4116 or toll-free in the U.S. at 800-688-4116 firstname.lastname@example.com For technical support in Europe, The Middle East & Africa please call (+44) (0) 208 753 0984 email@example.com For technical support in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Eastern Europe & Russia please call (+49) 8024 4700-0 email@example.com For technical support in Asia, please call (+852) 2799 1220 firstname.lastname@example.com
Thanks. I tried, but they're not open until Monday and we have a show tomorrow. But thanks for trying. I'm freaking out.
Thanks again for giving me the info about the 24/7 tech. It is only through their help that I got the lights working again.
what was the problem?
Somehow DMX Output had been disabled, and their patch had additionally been deleted. We opened the show, enabled DMX Ouput and regained control! Happy I could help you out. Ueli, thanks for pointing them to support!
Thank you, Saranow, for saving our show! You have no idea how much we appreciate your help.

Poison dart frogs are a group of frogs that are native to the tropical jungles of Central and South America. Poison dart frogs excrete toxins through their skins, and the brightly coloured bodies of poison dart frogs warn potential predators not to eat them.
Poison dart frogs vary in size, colour and the levels of toxin that they produce depending on the species of poison dart frog and the area in which it lives. There are more than 175 different species of poison dart frog known to be inhabiting the jungles across Central and South America.
Poison dart frogs are often known as dart frogs or poison arrow frogs due to the fact that the tribes-people living close to the poison dart frogs, would use their poison in order to tip the ends of their arrows and blow-darts.
Poison dart frogs live on the ground or in the foliage just above it. Poison dart frogs are found in moist and humid forests that are free from high levels of pollution. Today, many species of poison dart frogs are considered to be critically endangered in the wild, mainly due to pollution and habitat loss.
Poison dart frogs are carnivorous animals that survive on a diet purely made up of meat. Poison dart frogs shoot out their long, sticky tongues to catch flies, ants, insects, spiders and termites.
Due to the high toxin levels produced by the poison dart frog, it has very few predators in the wild. Many animals will become extremely sick from just licking a poison dart frog, so they won't approach them. There is only one species of snake that is known to be immune to the poison of the poison dart frog.
Many species of poison dart frog, make devoted parents as they carry their newborn hatchings from ground-level where they were laid to the safety of the canopy above. The eggs stick to mucus on the back of the mother poison dart frog, while she carries it a water-pool in a flower high in the trees. The female poison dart frog does this with all of her babies, and lays an unfertilised egg in the water for her young to eat.View all 37 animals that start with P

Donovan Biography
Donovan Philips Leitch, 10 May 1946, Maryhill, Glasgow, Scotland. Uncomfortably labelled Britains answer to Bob Dylan Donovan did not fit in well with the folk establishment. Instead, it was the pioneering UK television show Ready, Steady, Go! that adopted him, and from then on success was assured. His first single, Catch The Wind, launched a career that lasted through the 60s with numerous hits, developing as fashions changed. The expressive Colours and Turquoise continued his hit folk image, although hints of other influences began to creep into his music. Donovans finest work, however, was as an ambassador of flower power with memorable singles such as 1966s Sunshine Superman (UK number 2/US number 1) and Mellow Yellow (UK number 8/US number 2). His subtle drug references endeared him to the hippie movement, although some critics felt his stance was too fey and insipid. He enjoyed several hits with lighter material such as the calypso influenced There Is A Mountain and Jennifer Juniper (written for Jenny Boyd during a much publicized sojourn with the guru, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi).
A number of the tracks on his ambitious 1967 boxed set, A Gift From A Flower To A Garden, displayed a jazzier feel, a style he had previously flirted with on excellent b-sides such as Sunny Goodge Street and Preachin Love. Meanwhile, his drug/fairy tale imagery reached its apotheosis in 1968 with the Lewis Carroll-influenced Hurdy Gurdy Man (UK number 4/US number 5). As the 60s closed, however, he fell from commercial grace, despite adopting a more gutsy approach for his collaboration with Jeff Beck on Goo Goo Barabajagal (Love Is Hot). Undeterred, Donovan found greater success in the USA, and many of his later records were issued only in America. Cosmic Wheels (1973) was an artistic and commercial success, and contained the witty Intergalactic Laxative. Anticipating continued success, Donovan then released the bitterly disappointing Essence To Essence, and thereafter ceased to be a major concert attraction although he continued to release low-key studio albums on a variety of labels.
In 1990, after many inactive years, the Happy Mondays bought Donovan back into favour by praising his work and invited him on tour in 1991. Their irreverent tribute Donovan underlined this newfound favouritism. He also appeared on UK television as part of a humorous remake of Jennifer Juniper with comedians Trevor and Simon. A flood of reissues arrived as Donovan was deemed hip again, and he undertook a major UK tour in 1992. Troubadour, an excellent CD box set was issued the same year covering vital material from his career.
The highest profile Donovan has received in the recent past is becoming (briefly) ex-Happy Mondays/ Black Grape vocalist Shaun Ryders father-in-law. 1996s Sutras was released to a considerable amount of press coverage but achieved little in terms of sales. On this album Donovan revisited whimsical and cosmic territory. Instead of catchy folk songs (early period) and acid soaked rockers (late period), he opted for cloying, though sincere, material. Apart from the release of a number of reissues and a childrens album little was heard from Donovan until he made an unexpected return in 2004 with a fine new studio album, Beat Café.

"I don't believe in getting ready for inspection. Cyber security is so important that it should be something we do 24/7," said Francisco Beatty, JBSA Cyber Security chief, 502nd Communications Squadron.
His team is responsible for keeping approximately 85,000 computers connected and running securely within the JBSA community. Beatty said any user could become a target at any moment.
"This isn't something that is going to happen to the other guy. It could happen to you and you may have no idea that it's going on right now," Beatty added.
While most of the computer systems are pin based with a common access card, there's always going to be a challenge.
"We find people wanting to access wireless more frequently; bluetooth, personal hot spots, ways to provide their own entertainment or access to the internet," said Greg Martin, JBSA Information Systems specialist. He added that it can be a challenge to keep the communication avenues safe for military users.
"We control the wireless spectrum. We scan for rogue systems and rogue wireless connections and we do our best to track it down and find out what it is supporting and how we can secure the connection," Martin said.
"It all comes back to data. If people can get their hands on your information, there's a lot of things they can do to manipulate it to their advantage," Beatty said.
All military internet users must take a cyber training course once a year so they can learn how to keep current threats at bay.
"We're vulnerable. We get attacked thousands of times a day electronically but there's so many different layers of defense that are being put in place that have been even above us at the base level that captures most of that," Martin added.
"You can't plug anything into a computer on the Air Force network. It will trip the land port and just kill all access to your machine. In all cases, it will trigger a security violation and disable your account," Beatty said.
Simple things can make a big difference in keeping your information secure. Both Beatty and Martin encourage users to keep their anti-virus software up to date, follow good computer use practices such as changing passwords frequently and not opening items you receive through email if it's from someone you don't know.
"The adversary [hacker]--that's his job. He's doing what he does day in and day out 24/7," Beatty said.
"You can't get complacent. You've always gotta be thinking how someone could be trying to get your data or compromise it," Martin said.
The JBSA cyber team will continue to keep internet systems running safely with as little interruption as possible.
"If we find it [an issue] we work with the team as needed so they can get out and isolate the particular system offline or help the user remediate the system. It's a great team effort," Beatty added.

If you are looking for ways to spruce up the home this year, there are so many different things you can do. Depending on the budget you have, you could completely redo the kitchen, install a new bathroom and even add an extension for more space. To make the home feel much more modern and spacious, here are some of the things you can do this summer.
Color scheme
Come up with a color scheme which you can take throughout the home as a base for your designs. This will likely include neutrals like white, grey or beige, and will cover all of your walls to give a blank slate ready for when you decorate. Once you decide on the colors you want in each room you can bring the color on with artwork, accessories, and furniture. This will not only save you having to redecorate every few years by painting, but it means you are more flexible to color changes throughout the year.
Bring in height
Create the illusion of height by buying shorter furniture for your living room. If you don't have a huge amount of space in your home and you often feel a little bit boxed in, you can create the illusion with shorter furniture as well as wallpapering the ceiling with a pattern. The reason wallpapering works is because you are drawing the eye upwards as soon as people enter the room.
Spruce up the windows
Your windows are all too often overlooked in the home, but they can actually work as a pretty great design feature if you work on them right. For example, make sure that you pay for any glass repair that you need to ensure no cracks in the panes, and then you can think of changing the frame from white to a bold statement. In the kitchen, for example, green would be a good choice because it will link the room to your garden and give that feeling of cohesiveness. A splash of color in the windows can make a fun addition to your home.
Contrasting colors
One of the things which modern homes always seem to get right is the color they add into the space. The moment you start with a neutral palette you are opening up the room to a world of possibilities. Sometimes, contrasting colors can be exactly what you are looking for a make a room pop. For example, in the living room you could have a mostly blue theme throughout, and then you could add some orange or yellow cushions to stand out and make a statement. As long as you get the balance between the two colors right, there is no reason why contrast can't be wonderful.
Invest in your furniture
It is all too common these days for people to simply go to a store such as IKEA and buy all of their furniture from the same range. There is nothing wrong with this, however, when you realize how many other people do the same as you, it takes away the uniqueness of your home. To stand out from the crowd and bring character to your space you need to buy your furniture one by one. Go to auctions, antique stores and look online for secondhand pieces which are unique and have a story to tell. Investing in pieces like this will not only give older furniture a longer lifespan, but it will also make your home feel completely unique.
If you have a room which is mostly decorated and you still feel like it is missing something, it is most likely missing a mirror. Mirrors aren't only useful for checking your makeup before you leave the house in the morning: they are also a great way to make a room feel larger. Adding a big mirror into a small room brings in a sense of light and makes it feel as if the room doesn't end at the wall. It can be a wonderful way to make your home feel larger without extending it.
The cantaloupe rule
To avoid your home looking cluttered from too many ornaments and decorations, you need to think about something called the cantaloupe rule. This is a rule often used in modern design which states that you shouldn't have any ornaments or decorations in the room which are smaller than a cantaloupe. Stick to large pieces of art, clocks and big vases in your home to make it feel spacious.
A sofa for a lifetime
There are many things you can buy for your home which you will eventually replace or get rid of entirely, but the one thing you should always plan to keep is the sofa. A sofa is the main place people will sit when they visit your home and it will be used every single day. Make sure that when shopping for a sofa that you take the time to find one which is the right size, color, and comfort for you all. Try to choose a style which you can bring with you when you move houses.
When you are faced with using a neutral palette for your home you can get bored pretty quickly. But just because the color stays the same throughout a room doesn't mean it has to look exactly the same. For example, if you wanted to decorate a room white and grey you could start with a grey wooden floor, paint the walls white, and then bring in marble tables and shelving for a different texture. Adding different textures of the same color into a room gives the design depth and makes it feel more organic. You can then finish off by adding in those splashes of color.
When most of us think about velvet we likely think of something our parents and grandparents would use in their homes. However, velvet is back in at the moment, and when placed over a plain background it can add both the texture and the color you want in your room. Start off small and bring in a small ottoman or footstool in a velvet design. You will soon see that this fabric has a wonderful home in modern houses and you should add more to the entire house for effect.

If you feel as if you could do with more space throughout your home, one brilliant method to make a room feel larger is to put everything on legs. This means that aside from your tables and chairs, you can buy a sofa with legs and a TV stand on legs too. This makes a room feel larger because when you walk through you can see the floor underneath the furniture instead of it being invisible.
Natural light
If you think that your home could do with more light, you need to make sure that your home is inviting the light into the space. For example for a more spacious home, think about getting rid of chunky curtains and instead, going for vertical blinds which can be opened during the day to let in as much light as possible.
In the evenings, you will likely want to bring some light into the home throughout bulbs, and to make sure you avoid that weird yellow glow make sure you always choose cool white bulbs. Cool white acts like natural light so you will always be able to see clearly at night. Make sure to bring candles into your living room for cozy nights in with a movie, and hang some fairy lights on the mantelpiece for an extra touch of magical during the evenings.
Bring the outdoors in
Plants are a huge feature of modern homes. If you really want to make your home pop and add extra texture to each room, a houseplant is ideal for you. For sunny parts of the house you can bring in cacti and Aloe Vera, and for shaded areas, you can have a peace lily or a snake plant. Bring as much greenery into your home as possible and it will feel much more lively and much more like a family home immediately.
Make it personal
When decorating your home it is important that you don't forget to make it personal and unique to your family. If you have a blank space on the wall, fill that space with a painting you love or a photograph of your loved ones. Bring color and life into your time with items you bought on a family holiday or art that your children have painted at school. Make the most of turning your home into a family home, and bring as much of your character into it as you possibly can.
With all of the tips we've given you today, you shouldn't have any issues with creating a wonderful, modern and spacious home for you and your family to enjoy throughout your lives.

If you own a Chatswood home with wood or timber flooring, count yourself fortunate. Home improvement experts all agree that a home with attractive and well-maintained wood flooring benefits from greater resale value. Of course, a home's wooden floors must be properly maintained, including through utilisation of periodic or as-needed floor sanding and finish application. Floor sanding your Chatswood home, prior to offering it for sale, is also certainly one instance when restoration and maintenance is called for.
But before undertaking any sort of floor sanding in your Chatswood residence consider the activities needed to carry it out and plan accordingly. Quality floor sanding and installation firms – and there are several located near to Chatswood, including A&J Flooring, an experienced and efficient specialist – advise that any sanding be undertaken with proper caution, for one. Floor sanding is laborious as well as potentially hazardous, depending on the fine particulate matter of wood and old finishing material created by sanding itself. For example, if your wooden floor once had a chemically based lacquer or resin applied, breathing in such particulates without benefit of respirator could be harmful.
Consider as well just how much time should be budgeted to floor sanding your Chatswood or nearby area home. Floor sanding, when done manually and without trained specialists, can take quite some time. In most regards, as advised by home improvement mavens, it makes more sense to take on the assistance and services provided by experienced floor installation and restoration specialty firms. If you're pressed for time, you must ask yourself whether devoting at least one entire weekend, if not several, to a floor sanding project is worth it, or if hiring sanding professionals would be more cost efficient.

How much does your insurance agent get paid?
July 11, 2016
If an advisor wants you to buy whole or universal life insurance, be sure it's based on your needs—and not a big, fat selling commission. LSM Insurance looked at the average first-year commission and bonus that agents at Canada's top five life insurers are paid when they sell new policies. While there are some situations where costly permanent life insurance makes sense, most families are better off buying cheaper term life insurance for a specific period, usually 10 or 20 years… Read more

text: Home > Business CAB allows AirAsia Phils, Seair flights to Malaysia ABS-CBN News Posted at Nov 01 2011 02:04 PM | Updated as of Nov 02 2011 06:17 PM Share Facebook Twitter LinkedIn MANILA, Philippines - AirAsia Philippines and South East Asian Airlines (Seair) can soon fly to Malaysia from Clark, Pampanga. The Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) has recommended giving flight entitlements to AirAsia Philippines and Seair to fly to several points in Malaysia. "The board made recommendations to allot flight entitlements to both airlines to fly to Malaysia out of Clark. We are still finalizing entitlements that are to be awarded to other airlines to mount flights from Manila," said CAB executive director Carmelo Arcilla. The recommendations will be formally approved after the board submits it in writing. Last Thursday, the CAB recommended that AirAsia Philippines can mount Clark-Kuala Lumpur flights from the 1,260-weekly seat entitlements assigned to it. AirAsia Philippines is the local unit of the Malaysian low cost carrier AirAsia. Seair's application for a total of 5,400 weekly seat entitlements to Malaysia was deemed approved by the CAB. The CAB recommended Seair be given 2,520 seats per week to mount flights between Clark and Kuala Lumpur; 1,260-weekly seats to be utilized for flights between Clark and Kota Kinabalu; 540 seats per week to Kuching; another 540 seats to Penang; and the same number of seats to Langkawi. However, the applications of other airlines that sought entitlements for the Manila-Kuala Lumpur-Manila routes are still pending. Airphil Express, the budget airline owned by Philippine Airlines, applied for 1,260-weekly seat entitlements to fly the Manila-KL route, and an additional 720 seat entitlements for other points in Malaysia. Cebu Pacific, which already has 10 weekly Manila-KL flights, also applied for additional 720 weekly seats. The Philippines and Malaysia amended their air services agreement last June. From 2,300 weekly seats, both countries agreed to add 2,520 more seats. They also agreed on unlimited traffic rights to airports outside of Manila, in the spirit of Executive Order no. 29, the policy implementing an open skies. Arcilla said the RP-Malaysia air services agreement is the first air pact sealed for the year. "Also, this is the first grant of unlimited traffic rights to our secondary gateways outside of Manila under EO 29," he said. Under the rules of the said EO, third, fourth and fifth freedom rights are allowed. This means that foreign airlines can mount flights to and from any airports in the country, except the already congested Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), without restrictions on frequency, capacity and type of aircraft.

US Pharm. 2013;38(10):1.
It is no great secret that retail pharmacy has been grappling with its identity for decades. Many chain and independent pharmacy owners continue to struggle financially because of a health care system that does not justly reimburse them or their pharmacists for the professional services they provide. And many politicians persist in treating pharmacists as expendable laborers and the drugs they dispense as common household commodities. Just when I thought the yin and yang of pharmacy—business versus profession—was finally tilting to the professional side, come two announcements in the past month that could signal a setback for the future of retail pharmacy. While either announcement by itself will not have an immediate impact on pharmacy, it is the tone they are setting that has me concerned.
For years, a strong regional pharmacy chain of 78 stores in North Carolina was synonymous with patient care and stood as a model of the professionalism that could be accomplished by a chain pharmacy while continuing to run a successful business. While it had all the components and departments of much larger national chains, Kerr Drug was most notable for the way its pharmacists practiced the profession. So when it was announced that Walgreens had purchased the chain, I felt a twinge of sadness that another regional chain whose professional principles would not be compromised would soon be gone. What set Kerr Drug apart from other drug chains was Anthony Civello, Kerr's president and CEO, who shaped the chain into what it is today. In a recent interview, he said the key was his devotion to the core principle of "providing patients access to the most comprehensive and convenient health and wellness offering in the industry." During his tenure at Kerr, Civello was a strong and welcome voice for pharmacists and the profession of pharmacy in general. I wish for two things: that Walgreens continue the tradition of professional values for which Kerr gained its fine reputation and that Civello continue to carry on his crusade for the profession.
The second announcement is more worrisome. A recent study by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services showed that a network of preferred pharmacies in Medicare Part D produced lower costs than nonpreferred pharmacies. And in an online blog from Capitol Hill Publishing titled "The Hill," Mark Merritt, president and CEO of the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, proclaims that "as policy makers continue to look for ways to bring down health care costs, specifically drug costs, they should encourage greater use of preferred pharmacy networks." Now I don't know the specifics of becoming a preferred pharmacy in one of those networks, but I bet the pricing of prescriptions is a big part of the picture. And while I understand the need to cut costs in health care, there are other ways to do this besides lowering the price of a prescription. A huge body of evidence confirms that providing personal, face-to-face consultations and medication therapy management will produce many of the same cost-saving results by keeping patients out of emergency rooms and reducing physician visits. When blogs concentrate solely on the price of drugs, they are ignoring the professional services offered by hundreds of thousands of pharmacists at retail pharmacies every day. The value of a retail pharmacy cannot, and should not, be judged on the price of prescriptions alone. The delicate balance between yin and yang in pharmacy must be maintained, for without the profession of pharmacy, there would be no business.

Daft Punk Is Playing at Your House: 10 Essential Dance-Rock Albums
Today, the intersection of dance music and rock music seems only natural. However, the process has been in the making for decades, and this list provides an introduction to ten of the best albums this genre combination has to offer.
Rock music has come a long way, you know. Charting the evolution of the genre, mapping its seemingly infinite offshoots and hyphenated mini-trends -- these would be full time jobs, lifelong careers. Rock twists around with soul, bops along with funk, embraces pop, and (often horrifically) flirts with rap and hip-hop. All of this hybridity speaks to rock 'n' roll's revolutionary spirit, its classic refusal to work cleanly within established borders. Of course, these experiments often come with plenty of controversy among fans and critics alike; when rock, for example, hooks up with the sheen and pulse of dance music, many people are historically just as likely to stare awkwardly at the floor or flee the room as they are to start shimmying. Those who stick around and are willing to get their blood moving have been -- for decades now -- rewarded with some of the best, most exciting, and most inventive popular music of the 20th and 21st centuries. Today, dance and rock have become so intricately involved with one another that it almost seems beside the point to mention their pairing -- look at LCD Soundsystem, for example, who made recent headlines by playing its final show at the legendary Madison Square Garden, a rare feat for an indie dance-rock band with little radio play.
The days when disco and the Bee Gees represented all that is evil to the rock world are long over. To celebrate, here's a list of ten essential dance-rock albums. There are plenty of worthy records and bands not included here (apologies to ESG, Dinosaur L, and Depeche Mode, to start), so read on and make your own list in the comments section. Get those hips moving.
German pioneers Can were avant-garde before English-speaking people knew how to pronounce "avant-garde". While its 1971 double LP, Tago Mago, is rightfully considered the band's opus, Ege Bamyasi sees Can streamlining the rhythms and liquid guitars that marked the sprawling Tago's most directly-accessible moments. From the psychedelic-tinged funk of "I'm So Green" to the druggy and cyclical "Spoon", it's impossible to listen to Ege Bamyasi and sit still. "Vitamin C", with its shouted "Hey YOU!" chorus and soft-loud dynamics, sounds as fresh today as it must have 40 (!) years ago.
Recommended tracks: "Spoon", I'm So Green", "Vitamin C", "Sing Swan Song"
David Bowie's progression from the "plastic soul" of his mid-1970's output to the masterful Berlin Trilogy begins here, with 1977's classic Low. Sharing ideas and energy with visionary collaborator Brian Eno, Bowie pushed his sound away from conventional 1960s and '70s influences (pop, soul, funk) toward something new, something marked by ambiance, something non-linear and cyclically-minded. A song like "Art Decade" doesn't only sound different than older Bowie—it sounds different than most anything else recorded by a famous rock musician at the time. In other words, this may not be the best album to simply toss onto the speakers at your next dance party. Nevertheless, to understand where the intersection of dance music and rock music gained steam, Low remains essential. "Speed of Life", for example, goes a long way toward predicting house music's rise a few years later. So, while many of these tracks skew toward the ambient side of electronic music, an equal number blend more straightforward electronic-tinged dance sounds with Bowie's rock 'n' roll chops to ingenious results.
Recommended tracks: "A New Career in a New Town", "Be My Wife", "Speed of Life", "Breaking Glass", "What in the World"
Autobahn (1974) is generally regarded as the masterwork of German Krautrock progenitor Kraftwerk. However, it's Trans-Europe Express that offers listeners the distinct pleasure of hearing the group flirt more directly with rock music. The record is almost certainly Kraftwerk's catchiest collection of songs, and Express manages those melodies while keeping the band's foundational conventions -- repetition, hypnotic beats, vocal manipulation—intact. Still, to call Express a rock record -- or a dance record, or an electronic record, or any other available moniker -- ultimately feels reductive. This album contains multitudes; press play (you can also dance, if you want to).
Recommended tracks: "Europe Endless", "Showroom Dummies", "Trans-Europe Express", "Metal on Metal"
For a while in the early 2000s, Gang of Four sounded like the most influential band in the history of rock music. The ubiquitous dance-punk trend, which had its high points in groups like the Rapture and Bloc Party and its low ones in innumerable imitators, borrowed liberally from the classic Leeds, England group's sound -- see how many reviews of those bands you can find that call guitars "angular" or "spiky". But all right, those descriptors fit; Andy Gill's guitar is often used less as a melodic lead than as a noisemaker, almost becoming a percussive instrument on tracks like "Natural's Not in It". At the very least, Gill serves as a counterpoint to bassist Dave Allen's forceful playing, anchored by Hugo Burnham's relentless hi-hat and kick drum. Vocalist Jon King had a better voice than most punk-derived bands would allow, and he used it to great effect, harmonizing with his bandmates while also delivering scathing political screeds. Its followers are legion, but Gang of Four still sounds like an original.
Recommended tracks: "Ether", "Natural's Not in It", "Damaged Goods", "At Home He's a Tourist"
You know Liquid Liquid even if you don't know you know -- Grandmaster Flash lifted the bassline from its 1983 cut "Cavern" for his classic "White Lines". Ironically, while that melody became one of the most famous in all of hip-hop, Liquid Liquid itself remained largely obscure until a crucial 1997 reissue collected the group's output—three EPs from 1981 to 1983 -- and reissued it on a single disc. It may be stretching things a bit to call Liquid Liquid's music "rock", but consider the group's sound rock 'n' roll, deconstructed. Elvis Presley scandalized the United States by acknowledging rhythm and shaking his hips; Liquid Liquid made music almost entirely constructed out of percussion, whether on a drum kit, congas, marimba, or anything else that could be slapped with a hand or struck with a stick. Richard McGuire's bass guitar locks into similarly cyclical grooves, as do Salvatore Principato's vocals, when they're present at all. Liquid Liquid stripped rock music to its bare heartbeat, and paved the way for all those post-rockers to come after.
Recommended tracks: "Cavern", "Lub Dupe", "Groupmegroup", "New Walk"
