Bill's Pete Townshend Pages
Bill has done a fantastic job collecting all of the pertinent album information, including lyrics and we thank him for his hard work and dedication to the project!
Pete Townshend Solo Records
A note from Bill: I want to thank all of those who have visited my original PT website. After 13 years of being on the web, I have decided to change my direction in life and fulfill my duties and obligations to Lionism. No it's not a cult or religion, it's a civic organization. (I have three websites to maintain plus the duties of a newsletter) First of all I want to thank Scott, who has graciously took in my site to be hosted and posted on the "whonet". I will be working to post lyrics and liner notes from my site to the whonet. One thing you will not see is my collection, unless I need photos for certain webpages.
I feel White Fangs Who Site is one of the best resources for colleting The Who.

Occupy's Return From Hibernation
As winter fades, the Occupy Wall Street movement is heating up again. But don't expect the same focus on physical encampments and rowdy protests. While the blood of the 99 percent is still boiling at the injustice of growing inequality, in organizing meetings and workgroups, cooler heads are prevailing. This is Occupy 2.0—the mainstreaming of momentum.
From my conversations with Occupy organizers and supporters, my sense is that the main thrust of organizing energy and attention will go toward Occupy Our Homes— a coalition of Occupy activists joining with existing grassroots groups to support families that are facing foreclosure or have been evicted by big banks. Prioritizing Occupy Our Homes is great choice for two reasons.
First, the foreclosure crisis is immense and growing. Despite the recent mortgage settlement with state attorneys general that will grant 750,000 foreclosed-upon families a whopping $2,000 each (!), 4.2 million families have already been foreclosed upon during the economic crisis. The industry site RealtyTrac estimates that number will skyrocket to 10 million in 2012. Besides literally pulling the rug out of millions of American families at the worst possible moment, according to the Federal Reserve, high rates of foreclosed properties drive down home prices and values, hurting all homeowners and the economy as a whole. There may be no more powerful illustration of the abuses of the 1 percent than the taxpayer-bailed-out big banks foreclosing on struggling families and driving down the economy for the entire 99 percent.
But organizing around Occupy Our Homes is a strategic second phase choice for Occupy for another reason, one best summed up by my own mother. She sent money to Zuccotti Park and her own local Occupy site in Allentown, Pennsylvania but, at age 64 (sorry mom!), told me there was no way she was sleeping on the ground outside in the cold. The great thing about Occupy Our Homes as a tactic is that there's still a tangible way for the tents and sleeping bags set to be involved (as when Occupy supporters camped out on the lawn of the home of an Iraq War veteran near Atlanta, ultimately saving her home from foreclosure) but foreclosure prevention also creates avenues for other types of engagement, whether bringing a casserole, writing a letter to a bank, or joining a prayer vigil. Such actions put a broader face on the 99 percent movement, not just punk kids in bandanas but middle class families threatened with homelessness standing with block association presidents and pastors and grandmothers (i.e., my mom).
Say what you will about mainstreaming, that's how movements evolve being a fringe concern to a force for change. I don't mean to disregard the role of the vanguard, those at the leading edge of a movement's origins who take the first, bold steps and, often, risks. But vanguard leaders should be self-aware and situate themselves in a larger context, seeing the prospect of mainstream appeal as a sign of their success not a threat to undermine it. It's absurd to pave a road and then get angry when other people follow it. Instead, the next step is to pave a new one.
Unfortunately, I predict that a crowd of die-hard Occupiers will stubbornly cling to the tactic of public Occupy encampments and mass, edgy protests, confusing these tactics for the entirety of the movement and overlooking the possibility that these tactics may have outlived their symbolic power. Related debates about the political utility of black bloc tactics have been springing up and hopefully, these important debates will continue, knitting together various philosophies within Occupy into a diverse whole. But as with many movements, it looks like this next phase will divide the movement into factions, with the radical anarchist wing splitting off from the rest. Perhaps the best outcome of this will be that even though the anarchists will continue their "day of rage" type actions and police aggression, they will make the Occupy Our Homes wing seem more reasonable and rational. At best, the more radical wing will continue to pave new, innovative roads for future momentum. That would be the vanguard-y thing to do.
Lastly, look in the spring for another wing to emerge—existing grassroots organizations driving sets of actions tied to the mission of Occupy Our Homes but with a more radical, confrontational edge. This will include perhaps the most visible, systematic disruption of corporate shareholder meetings ever seen in our country as well as other targeted direct actions on big banks in particular. No doubt there will be some missteps but, to be clear, the difference with this cluster of organizers and actions is that it will explicitly seek to bolster the same message and goals as Occupy Our Homes and implicitly create political pressure and space through edgier tactics that legitimize other arms of the movement.
I was recently trying to explain hibernation to my three-year-old. I told her that animals like bears store food in the fall, dig in and gather strength in the winter and then come out ready for spring. The 99 percent movement gathered tremendous public will and political momentum in the fall of 2011. Now, the movement is quietly planning and gathering strategic strength. In the spring, populist activism will bloom across America with a density and diversity unheard of for decades. It's going to be a very hot spring indeed.

If ever there were a better use for the Lefts' Useful Idiots, I can't think of one. Occupy "Whatever" is the phoniest, tackiest, lamest George-Soros-funded propaganda effort yet to herd the sheeple for the NWO global elite's purposes. Baaa..baaa...baaa! Occupy the astroturf, sheeple, ha ha!

re: false dichotomy(ies) 99% vs 1%
In case you have not noticed, somewhere in the neighborhood of 35% of Amerikans are perfectly comfortable living their lives in a governmental corporatocracy and are employed (and fed bread) by same.
1% could never muster the degree of control over so many strings as to keep the other 65% under control.
It would be helpful to find out what inspires the 35% to keep us (65%) so downtrodden and voiceless (media: circuses)
To complicate matters, the 35% can be divided into "filthy rich" and "wanna-bee filthy rich", so there's alot of animosity there also, but right now, not enough to cause the dwellers to care enough about the 65% to make a change.

Kohn provides valuable (and much appreciated) insight here and a more inclusive spectrum than I was aware of. I always considered the "anarchist wing" for instance, a non-affiliated bunch of 1%-er patsies trying to make the the movement look bad.
Judging by the reactions of commercial media sock puppets and some of the comments here so far, we've got a long way to go before we can achieve anything like a working consensus between the neocon and progressive factions esp. since the former chooses to operate in a tragic, fact-free-hysteria mode.
The Occupy/99% movement is the healthiest and latest manifestation I've seen in the global arena since the non-violent, Gene Sharp inspired movements that liberated the soviet block and inspired Arab Spring. Every American citizen owes it to our democracy to get smart on the FACTS of our plight, to unite and act as "an informed citizenry" to get back on track to a happy, secure future. Dare we dream?

Sally, I really liked your comment but - it's "lie low", not "lay". You can lay an egg, or lay a carpet, or lay an ambush, you can also lie IN ambush, but you can only lay low if you specify what you are laying, as "he landed a solid uppercut which laid his opponent low." Please help stamp out bad English! (yes, that's a pun)
when protesters are being paid to be there it is no longer a honest protest. Ben and Jerry the famous makers of ice cream have stated that they intend to pay the occupy members to be on the streets protesting. Sad face here, since I can not with good concious fund something I disagree with so strongly. I did not think I could ever give up Chunky Monkey, but I think I will have to. Good for the waist line as well as the peace of mind

Ryan Exposes the VIP Tent – By Comment Request
The VIP tent was to stage left and back in a shaded area. There were great shade trees and green green grass. White picket fences line different areas, and people are mellow, quiet and chill.
Tables are lined with black and white checkered table clothes. High round tables are topped with veggies, fruit and snacks. It is a concert utopia. I should have come sooner. The food tent is amazingly decorated – I have a sense there will be a bunch of hay, pumpkins and corn available after the concert. I am greeted with smiling faces, handing out FREE programs…flat screen tv's show the concert to onlookers.
I have never have felt something so laidback. They even had special restroom trailers that were clean and large. Their own private ATM and to answer the golden question… no the beer was not free – but water, organic sodas and juices were free for the taking.
It is obvious, that VIP is the way to go.

The VIP area was really set up to attend to the needs of about HALF the people they shoved into it. No bottled water was available on a very hot sticky day. The portapotties in the VIP area were filthy beyond belief. Feces on the floorl. Trash can overflowing at the beginning of the day, NOON! Even after repeated complaints they were never cleaned. Toliet paper simply stacked in the middle of the wet floor just inside the door.ReplyDelete
Is it really so important to sell all those VIP upgrades when there is no chance the service can be provided? Those of us who paid $1500 per seat were jammed in a line with the rest of the sheep or left begging for bags of crackers or cookies for a snack while the tables were left vacant and empty of food. Filthy bathrooms, no water, they ran out of wine, beer, snacks? Dinner was late and the line was very long. Does this sound like VIP?
Why were the Verizon people given their separate area? It took away further space from the VIP tent and went mostly unused. An insult to those of us sitting in the DUST eating our dinner.
These four gracious gentlemen and their families who represent FARM AID deserve to have their special guests treated with the same respect they would have given them.
Try again and apologize. Please!
- Anonymous3:40 PM
This is an interesting story. It's no more then a story. It may have looked that way before the guests arrived, but I doubt this reviewer actually looked inside those "clean" bathrooms. They were foul and filthy all day long. There wasn't any cold water. If you fished the ice cubes out of the chests holding canned drinks and found a small paper cup you could make yourself some ice water - at least a sip of it?ReplyDelete
If this was your idea of VIP you can keep it.
- Anonymous5:20 PM
The VIP tent was disorganized at best. The food ran out at the "snack" time which was 3:00 so that by the time dinner came at 4:30 the VIPs were ravenous. I would say there are a lot of lessons to be learned from the mistakes during this event. Hopefully these comments will be read carefully and utilized when planning the next Farm Aid.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous4:18 PM
I had an artist pass and went everywhere I wanted,, all the tents and bathrooms. I had water in all areas, plenty of good food. The porta-potties were not bad, just never look down and see what is in the hole, the seat was clean. The trailer bathrooms were fine where I went.They were cool, fairly clean and had paper hanging up. These folks just want to complain. The whole day was perfect, not to hot, a good breeze and the security was the best. This is my 5th Farm Aid and I did not expect much from New York but they were great, very friendly and just down right nice. I am from the South and I really enjoyed New York. The show was good, I had a great time and hope to do many more Farm Aids.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous2:46 PM
I do NOT complain if treated fairly. All I was looking for was a bottle of water and a snack and that was too much to ask. Kristi in the VIP area was overwhelmed with complaints all day long. Was everyone just looking to complain? Glad they comped you an artist pass. Next time try paying three grand for your VIP seats and see if you don't view it somewhat differently.ReplyDelete
The "story" this man wrote is far from correct and I am waiting to hear from Kristi and Farm Aid as to why they chose to turn their VIP tent into a cattle call that would make Greyhound Bus tickets look better.
The porta-pottie by the VIP tent was trashed all day. Paper overflowing on the floor sticking to everyones feet as they went down the steps to leave. A mess.
You must be the reviewer or a buddy of his trying to resell this lie of a story he posted on this site.
I've been to many concerts, farm aids included and backstage, and have never seen such poor treatment in a VIP area before. I hope not to see it again.
Next year before I spend three grand I will inquire as to exactly what they mean by VIP.
- Anonymous7:45 PM
This was my first Farm Aid Concert. I had never been to NYC. The whole time was great. VIP had some problems but nothing that "ruined" my time. Cocktail time did not have enough food but there were plenty of other things to snack on and I certainly do not need a snack before supper. There was plenty to eat at supper and was very good. Bathrooms were fine and I was grateful that I did not have to wait in line in the lawn section. Overall, thanks for a great time. One I will never forget!!!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous4:15 PM
Thank you, Farm Aid, for at least apologizing to some of the VIPs privately through emails. Too bad someone couldn't have graciously admitted to the problems and posted an apology here. I've noticed replies on many other subjects, but not this one. The silence is deafening. By the way, there was plenty of bottled water and food in every other area, as well backstage, just none in the VIP area? An awfully huge oversight.ReplyDelete

Liberal blogs like Yglesias and Liberal Land are giggling over this...
Hours after declaring Sunday that he expects to be running for president within a month, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said he's worried the United States could be "a secular atheist country, potentially one dominated by radical Islamists," in the foreseeable future, according to Politico.
More at CNN
I don't blame them. It seems contradictory that the country could be atheist AND dominated by Muslims...how stupid is that? It seems like Newt's logic to this Christian audience is all "crossed" up hahaha!
For instance the Civil Rights movement in the 60's was perpetrated by people who were bored, with no real job, and desperate for attention. Black people were freed under the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments. What did they need a movement for 100 years later?
It's like Martin Luther King Jr. was trying to say black people in the south were free AND dominated by white people. To think we gave that guy a day...pssh!
Obama has left liberals in a state of deevolution that causes them to get winded reciting sound bytes that extend beyond one syllable....but maybe they can take a stab at what Newt was trying get to the heart of...
If you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything.
Thanks Malcolm X!
This country is a Christian nation, at least it was founded that way. Even the founding fathers believed America was blessed because its people believed in Him. Newt is warning the Christians who are left to reassert themselves or cede the country to ideologies that guarantee His blessing will be lost.
Liberals think the Christian and American identities are separate, it shows how far they've fallen of Uncle Sam's bandwagon. Not only are they not separate, they're mutually inclusive.
It's like chocolate chip cookies. If you remove the chocolate chips from America then it becomes something different (and if Michelle Obama gets what she wants and removes the sugar altogether then America would be like a big cracker...so she didn't think that cause through very well did she?).
The atheist left doesn't understand this. They think it's all hocus pocus while they wait with bated breath for the aliens who landed on earth millions of years ago to play Johnny Humanseed to return and prove us superstitious Christians wrong about creation.
They think America is great just because, and that can't ever change. That's why they don't believe in her exceptionalism, and shrug at her decline.
So come on Christians! You must be present to win, so shake a leg! You've gotta start showing up to the game because I've heard that "I told ya so" pie tastes even worse than the humble kind.

Another MDP profile
5 comments:
This is a profile that I'm happy with. Even though it only features one bot. Johnxt is awsome! Well done Danny!
- Jul 21, 2006, 12:20:00 AM
I definitley agree with maniac - he really did it up on this robot! It's like the advanced++ version of alpharex. :)

Yes, he did a very fine job! I like it very much.
Yes, well done! Please, render this one with a CAD program (MLCad maybe)!!
with absolutely no disrespect to Danny... He worked hard on this one during the MDP period and finished after the MDP closure. Not a big deal at all. Just shows that for a very good creation to be realized a lot of time is needed.
Are you unhappy/happy specifically with the Profiles or NXT Robots?
- Jul 21, 2006, 11:55:00 PM
- Jim Kelly said...
I agree... Danny did an absolute amazing conversion.
There's already been some 'negative' reactions to it, though... which is unfortunate. It might discourage people from sharing their designs if they feel they're going to be critiqued for every little thing...
I think the pictures Danny provided have some missing items on purpose (such as the brick in one pic) to allow for more detail to be visible... maybe I'm wrong, but a visit to Danny's site indicates the J5 does work.
- Jul 22, 2006, 12:04:00 AM
"Are you unhappy/happy specifically with the Profiles or NXT Robots?"
Sigh...I complain about one profile and now look:o)
I have no complaints with this profile or the robot featured on it. Other profiles...that's something else entirely. To answer your question, I would say that as a whole, I am happy with both. In some circumstances (sorry Steve) I am not very pleased with the content. The only thing that disappointed me about Steve's was that there was only one robot. Now Danny also has only one robot, but that was all he built. And come on! To my knowledge, this is what he spent his MDP time with, and more.
It has been explained by Steve that due to the NDA he can't show off his bots. I have no complaint with that.
"There's already been some 'negative' reactions to it, though..."
I know, I started it. I apologise for any cartisim that came from misinterpretation.

As a self-taught programmer myself competing in an industry dominated by CS majors, I often find myself intimidated. I have a BA in liberal arts but have found that many "trained" programmers tend to look down and assume I have huge holes in my understanding of fundamentals. I tend to not tell anyone, unless I have to, that I learned this way to avoid the stigma. Would it be better to embrace how I learned or would it be more prudent to continue to deliver while being less than open about my background?
Edit: I guess I did not mention this, but I actually have taken many CS classes, but I never had the time to get the actual paper with the random requirements attached. I have all the core stuff like data structures and algorithms, etc. I've found that I learned more on my own, however, I was primarily concerned with how this approach was viewed by employers and whatnot. Thanks for all of the great advice though!

It's here: 218bhp Mini Paceman JCW
John Cooper Works edition of the niche-busting mini SUV coupe lands…
Posted: 11 Jan 2013
When we first drove the new Mini Paceman, we opined that - while Mini might not like to hear it - it'd be ace for grandparents, what with its high-entry position.
Well, here's the one for the grandparent that's had one too many Red Bulls and watched an old episode of The Sweeney: it's the brand new Mini John Cooper Works Paceman.
That's right, the seventh - seventh - model in Mini's line-up gets the full JCW treatment. And looking at the picture above, it seems to have all gone a bit Dark Side of the Force. It'll make its worldwide debut at the upcoming Detroit motor show in January 2013, so for now you'll just have to touch your computer screen and ingest these details for a feel of it.
Underneath sits Mini's now-familiar 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine producing some 218bhp at 6,000rpm, and 207lb ft of torque available between 1,900rpm and 5,000rpm, with a six-speed manual as standard, or a six-speed auto as an option. There's also some overboost on offer too between 2,100rpm and 4,500rpm which increases the torques to 221, opening up - in Mini's words - "gratifyingly vivacious acceleration". Bravo.
Such vivacity expresses itself through a 0-62mph time of 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 140mph (139mph for the auto), making it the second-slowest JCW Mini behind its sober-suited brother, the JCW Countryman (0-62mph in seven seconds).
It'll get an appropriately tuned exhaust to match this sprint, along with Mini's ALL4 four-wheel-drive system as standard, which uses an electromagnetic centre diff to distribute drive between the front and rear axles. Normal driving results in around 50 per cent of the engine power being sent to the rear, but in "extreme conditions" (the only conditions TG fully understands), all 218 horses can be sent to the rear axle.
The Paceman sits 10mm lower than standard, on sports suspension that's been 'dynamically optimised', together with DSC and DTC stability and traction systems. Outside, its sporting intent makes itself known through 18in light-alloy wheels (with 19s an option), an aero kit with added beef, and of course, the all important JCW logos on the grille, boot and door sills.
Prices start at £29,535, around a grand more than the Countryman JCW, and it'll go on sale 16 March 2013. A step too far, or the car you've been silently crying out for?

The 18th Olympiad was the first Games event held in Asia; Tokyo had been scheduled to host in 1940, but that Olympiad was canceled because of the war. Japan was determined not only to be a good host, but also to provide a record of the games to rival that of Leni Riefenstahl's legendary Olympia. Respected filmmaker Kon Ichikawa (The Harp of Burma, Fires on the Plain) and an army of technicians recorded the games in widescreen images, the most striking occurring near the beginning of the film, as a runner with the Olympic torch is shown in long shot with the sunlit Mt. Fuji in the background. Ichikawa offers stylistic touches to emphasize certain aspects of the athletes' struggle to achieve: slow-motion, amplified sound, extreme close-ups, and still photos in black-and-white. The chronological coverage, which reveals that many days of competition were hampered by rain, includes a wide variety of sports, from track and field events to gymnastics, weightlifting, wrestling, boxing, fencing, judo, shooting, cycling, equestrian events, soccer, field hockey, volleyball, canoeing, rowing, sailing, walking, and the pentathlon. Spectators cheer enthusiastically for their country's athletes, and there is one memorable shot of the press room, with hundreds of typewriters clattering away. Ichikawa devotes the film's longest segment to the final event, the marathon. Abebe Bikila of Ethiopia, a relentless runner whose technique is examined in slow motion, won the gold, pulling away from the competition with apparent ease. The coverage is balanced; when a Japanese athlete wins a medal, it's noted but not dwelled upon. Originally released at nearly three hours, Tokyo Olympiad was shamelessly edited for U.S. release to half that length, with insipid narration added. Fortunately, a restored version was made available in 1984. It's important to see the film in its widescreen version, as several of the shorter track events were filmed head-on to include all of the runners on the track.~ Tom Wiener, All Movie Guide

Midwest Living Review
Based at Union Station, Segway Experience of Kansas City has offered rolling history tours of the city since 2001. Choose from four tours: "Urban Journey" (including Union Station and Liberty Memorial), the "Plaza Art and Architecture Tour," "Segway Safari" (a tour through the Kansas City Zoo) and "Union Station: Past and Present." Every tour begins with a 15-minute training session (helmets are required, but you'll get your balance surprisingly quickly). We found that Segways were a really effective way to sightsee, more relaxing than a bicycle and less tiring than walking. Our tour guide, though young, seemed well versed in the trivia and history of Country Club Plaza. Prices range from $20 to $70 for 30-90 minute tours, and tours are offered year-round. Note that occasionally tour times change (we showed up an hour early for our tour!), so when you provide contact information, we'd suggest giving a cell phone rather than a home phone, if possible.

[Intro: Liz Suwandi]
I am your fool
Loving you, I shouldn't
You take me, chain me
I have nothing anymore
[Verse 1: Tech N9ne]
You want a regular dude, but you think that I'm what you need?
You gonna get in your mood, wanna bitch in every text you read
Sometimes I think I wanna let you breathe, but I'm the enemy if I set you free
I gotta let you know that it gets to me, ready or not like a refugee
You complaining when I see you
That I never have time, that I'm busy as a beaver
Foul face when i feed ya
Really need hennessy, that be my fucking reliever
Why you wanna stand and cry the most
Are you thinkin' that I'm for you to try the coke
To knot the hole, really wanna tie the ropes
Say by default and hang Nina by the throat
You must really like my imperfections
Cause you stay on dismay, temper detections
And thats nightly, too much messing with my psyche
That enough hurts, but you fight me
So you must love to dislike me
[Hook: Tyler Lyon]
What did you ever see in me?
Was I only what it needed be?
I'm running away from your judgement
Don't you try to find me
I won't let you change me anyway, anyway
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]
Yo, I'm feeling stoned now
Sick of having those breakdowns, they gone now
It's on now, I've grown foul, it's wrong how we've shown clouds
You keep your tone out of my dome, gal
I'm sick of this shit
All the picking and the pulling, I don't dig it a bit
Living and learn what I want and what I'm giving 'em living 'em digging a ditch
Dick I wanna fit up in this
You stayed out of my premises
But you ain't supposed to be my nemesis
Wanna be in to kiss, never to finish it
What happened to close friends with benefits?
I'm mad as hell
Cause I wanna be back when we had it well
All this static's problematic like grabbing a rabbits tail
And thats nightly, too much messing with my psyche
That enough hurts, but you fight me
So you must love to dislike me
[Hook: Tyler Lyon]
[Bridge: Liz Suwandi]
Inside I wanna find somewhere I can hide
Away from all the faded dreams and tainted lies
I wanna tear you up and love you all at once
You quit and score so give me more
Give me more, give me more
[Outro: Tyler Lyon]
Don't tell me everything's okay
I'm only dying just to be
Your one and only everything
And all you do is kill me
Don't tell me everything's okay
I'm only dying just to be
Your one and only everything
And all you do is kill me
[Outro 2: Tech N9ne]
You point out all my imperfections, but yet you stay
That's nervewrecking
I can't live this way
- 4. With the BS
- 5. Love 2 Dislike Me
