The Big Easy
It's not every day the job takes you to a venue as interesting as this one that just six months ago was in such shocking peril. There's no doubt that there remains a long way to go, but things are relatively normal, and it's encouraging to see so many "Now Hiring" signs outside local businesses.
Regarding the long way to go, there have constantly been construction workers in the elevator at my hotel, as there's more of them in town than standard guests. The hotel room itself was the first one I've been in to lack a clock, but you tend to be of the mind to cut some slack given the circumstances.
Tooling around the French Quarter made it abundantly clear that the social and economic situation isn't nearly what it once was, but there remained the distraction of the Harrah's casino. It's apparently less of a distraction than that Steak 'n' Shake in Indianapolis, because the Lakers won this game. The players who were there Tuesday night/Wednesday morning didn't stay nearly as long as I did, I'm sure Phil Jackson will be pleased to know.

The first films announced for the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival.
Can we think of Mel Gibson simply as an action hero? A star whose personal baggage doesn't upstage his performances? I find that I can. He has made deplorable statements in recent years, which may be attributed to a kind of fanatic lunacy that can perhaps be diagnosed as a disease. The fact remains that in "Edge of Darkness" he remains a likable man with a natural screen presence.
Here he plays a Boston cop named Craven (always a dependable movie name). The great love of his life is his daughter, Emma (Bojana Novakovic). She works for a giant, secretive corporation named Northmoor. Few corporations with "moor" in their titles are wholly trustworthy; we think too much about bodies being buried there.
Emma comes home for a visit, rather unexpectedly. She is having nosebleeds. A bleeding nose can be a symptom of numerous disorders, but in a thriller, as we all know, there's only one possible diagnosis. Emma has hardly arrived when there's a knock on the door, they answer it together, and a man in a hood screams "Craven!" and shoots her dead.
It is assumed that the detective Thomas Craven was the intended target. Craven's not so sure. His investigation leads him to Northmoor and its silky, sinister chairman, Jack Bennett (Danny Huston, ominously courteous, just as his father was in "Chinatown"). Bennett tears himself away from planning Northmoor's campaign contributions long enough to greet Craven in his office, atop a towering aerie overlooking his feudal lands.
Because much of the movie is a cranked-up thriller with chases, fights, conspiracies and all that stuff, permit me a digression on secretive, shadowy corporations. What kinds of headquarters buildings do they inhabit? I Googled. Blackwater, which supplies our mercenaries in Iraq, has a drab two-story building outside Cleveland, with eight cars parked in front. Halliburton, Dick Cheney's old company, recently moved from Houston to an anonymous skyscraper in -- Dubai, closer to its place of business.
I mention this because Northmoor -- which you will not be surprised to learn traffics in illegal, traitorous and dangerous activities -- occupies a spectacular structure atop a tall riverside hill, visible from miles around: Its tower, its modernistic design, its curious enormous gleaming globe, suggesting a planetarium. It is a building worthy of magazine covers, not least Architectural Digest.
One purpose of corporate architecture is to impress. Northmoor's desire is to impress us, the moviegoer. Its structure looks left over from a James Bond movie, and indeed the "Edge of Darkness" director, Martin Campbell, made "Casino Royale" (2007). It's the kind of edifice that inspires such questions as, "What do they do in there?" Much of what they do takes place in enormous buried spaces within the hill. This low-profile corporation undertook a construction project on a par with a subway line.
I explain this not merely to avoid discussing the off-the-shelf thriller plot, but to illustrate that "Edge of Darkness," like so many recent thrillers, has no ambition to be taken seriously. If the corporation were more realistic, the movie would be, too. And then the fate of the world wouldn't depend yet once again on One Cop . . . With Nothing to Lose . . . On a Personal Mission.
Gibson inhabits this gazebo with as much conviction as is probably possible. He's joined in this by the superb British actor Ray Winstone, as an intriguing free agent who turns up in Craven's garden one night with a cigar and an enigmatic line of patter. Who does he work for? Why does he know so much? Why does he work alone? He reminds me of a man I know, Jean-Jacques de Mesterton, who told me, "If you have a problem, you go to the cops. If they can't help you, you go to the FBI. If they can't help you, you go to the CIA. If they can't help you, you come to me."
Winstone's interaction with Gibson provides the movie with much of its interest. For the rest, it's a skillful exercise in CGI and standard-order thriller supplies. Gibson is a credible, attractive hero, as he has always been, so if you want fast-food action, here's your movie.
It does have a useful subtext. It serves as a reminder that the purpose of a corporation is not to be patriotic, but to maximize profits for its officers and shareholders. This is required by its by-laws. I suppose if we, as shareholders, don't agree with its profit-making strategies, we can always sell our stock, assuming we can find out what those strategies are.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

Lazio manager Vladimir Petkovic is not concerned by questions over his future at the club after a poor start to the season.
The Rome club travel to Apollon in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday following a disappointing run of form that has left them without a win since their 3-1 victory over Catania last month.
Lazio are ninth in Serie A as a result, but sit joint-top of Europa League Group J with Trabzonspor ahead of their trip to face the Cypriot side.
And Petkovic - who had reportedly been considering his position - is not focusing on the rumours
"I'm relaxed. It's only the results that are missing," he told Tuttosport.
"I feel good because I know what we are doing and how we are working. It's just a bad patch."
Petkovic remains confident that Lazio will turn their form around, while blaming the media for the recent speculation surrounding his role at the club.
"You (the media) created this mess," he added.
"You like this kind of thing because you sell a couple more newspapers but I'm not worried and I'm showing my team that.
"I'm putting out my strongest team against Apollon and we're going out there to show what we can do and overcome our recent difficulties.
"We need to show more determination and focus for the whole 90 minutes. But we have deserved better in our last few games."

Hello Miles. What a surprise. Indeedy, still a local lad. Born in Blaydon, live in Blaydon - will probably pop off in Blaydon. Glad you are doing well - I heard you had a lot of success in Australia with the trio.ReplyDelete
Very best wishes and I wish you continued success.
- Miles NicholasFriday, May 18, 2012 8:15:00 pm
Good lord! That brings back a boat load of memories. Roly! How are you? Hi Lance too! That was an amazing, surprising evening alright. I remember some fantastic playing that night not least from you, Roly. Harry's players were wonderful and Harry was also a pretty handy multi- instrumentalist. He advised me (after doing a very passable Art Blakey impression on my drums for a few numbers) that I should get some Zildjian cymbals.... Which I dutifully did later.ReplyDelete
The evening seemed to stretch on and on and has always been a good story to trot out every now and then. Thanks for your kind comments. I went to Australia with Kyrie Miskin (trombone) and Duncan O Neill (guitar) both from the jazz course in Newcastle. We had a very successful busking band that turned into a bizarre indie pop band played all over Aussie radio and TV. Came back to the UK last year. In London writing scores for film and TV. Hope you're well, sir. Still Newcastle way?
Keith Crombie names the baritone player as Dave Schumacher and the tenor player as Jerry Weldon both of who can be seen/heard on YouTube as can altoist Brad Leali.ReplyDelete

About this blog - contact details.
Not a very original title, I know; not even an accurate one as my taste, whilst centred around the music of Bird and Diz, extends in many directions and I listen to everything from King Oliver to Chick Corea and beyond. Not forgetting the Great American Songbook the contents of which has provided the inspiration for much great jazz and quality popular singing for round about a century.
The idea of this blog is for you to share your thoughts and pass on your comments on discs, gigs, jazz - music in general. If you've been to a gig/concert or heard a CD that knocked you sideways please share your views with us. Tell us about your favourites, your memories, your dislikes.

Hawaii Tax ID#W93899100-01
After coming to Maui every year for over 15+ years, we decided to get a vacation home in our favorite vacation spot -- Kaanapali beach. We look forward towards sharing our new vacation home with your family!
Chris Burns purchased this condo in 2010
After coming to Maui & Kaanapali for over 15 years and continuing to stay in older condos with small pools, we were excited to find the 1st oceanfront property built in Kaanapali in the last 30+ years with multiple pools, water slides, and Duke's restaurant!
As our reviews will suggest, we take special care to provide lots of beach amenities, games , DVD's and many things for the kitchen that enable you to pack lighter and buy less for your vacation in paradise!
The owner of this property is a true professional. Very respectful and he took care of everything. I highly recommend this property for families with kids. They have a bunch of beach toys, boogie boards, sand chairs, snorkel masks and fins, and even a big DVD library. I hope to return soon! Thanks!!
Maui is wonderful. We have visited a few times, however, this was our first time staying at Honua Kai in unit 436. The unit was very clean and well decorated, and the view was gorgeous. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning while watching the sun rise over the pacific...priceless memory. The layout of the unit was perfect for us, we had a master bedroom, second bedroom with twin (or queen) beds for our grown children, and a sofa bed for my mom. We stayed 8 days, and the walls "never closed in" b/c the unit is spacious and has separate areas for retreat. Additionally, the unit had every amenity needed from the beach chairs, kitchen utensils, and beach towels. We especially appreciated the full size bottles of name brand shampoo in both showers and full size bar of soap.
Our unit owner communicated with us throughout the booking process and our arrival. We had a late night arrival, and he sent all our documents in advance so we wouldn't experience any delays upon arrival. We decided to add a late check-out at the very last minute, and the owner was quick to rearrange cleaning services for us to enjoy the unit until departure. (Thank you very much).
Honua Kai is a wonderful property. The convenience of Duke's is an added luxury b/c you don't have to leave the property to enjoy a nice dinner. Several days we never left Honua Kai. We enjoyed the pool and beach all day followed by a nice sunset dinner at Duke's. (Please eat the pie if nothing else). We also took full advantage of the grills on site, which were cleaner than my grill at home, and we grilled our lunch there several days and ate at the picnic tables provided. Nice is an understatement. We also enjoyed the spa while visiting and loved the convenience of walking from the spa to the pool for a relaxing nap. We don't have small children, however, it is a wonderful property for children full of activities.
In closing, we have stayed at several 5 star properties (Ritz, Montage,) on the island, and there is very little difference between the properties with the exception of the roominess at the Honua Kai.
You will NOT be disappointed staying in unit 436 and Honua Kai.
What a wonderful holiday in Honua Kai Maui! Thank you Chris and Cheryl for sharing your lovely holiday home with us.
Right from the get go Chris was a pleasure to speak to. He was quick to answer any questions and very forth coming with details about the property. Once we booked, Chris sent through a list with recommendations for Maui which was very useful to help us plan our stay as there is so much to do.
The check-in process with Michelle was quick and simple, even with an international cell. Not too long after we had left the airport, we were settling into the beautifully appointed condo and soaking up the ocean views from the lanai.
We had 2 couples staying in the condo and there was plenty of space. Lots of spices and condiments to use during our stay which helped reduce the shopping list. We would recommend shopping at Costco after arriving at the airport. The price was much cheaper there compared to the local supermarkets (especially pineapple!).
I highly recommend booking through Chris and staying in U436. I only wish we had more time there!
The entire process from start to finish was wonderful Chris, the owner, was very responsive to our e-mails and questions. We were a bit hesitant about booking online with somebody we didn't know . This was great - from start to finish! The unit itself was super clean with everything you can think of: Fully equipped kitchen and all kinds of beach toys, etc. We especially enjoyed the patio where we had many nice breakfasts and dinners , as we cooked some of our meals ourselves. We were met by the property manager at check-in and shown around the resort and and to get access to the unit. It was overall a super enjoyable vacation ! Thank You, Chris! We will be back!!!
Simply put, this unit was amazing. The amount of room that the unit had to spread around mixed with the fresh, clean feel was just so welcoming. This is a full two bedroom unit, unlike many calling themselves two bedroom, when one is just a bed in a closet, and it also had a sofa bed to truly sleep 6.
When we first talked to Chris, we could tell he was a forthright person who was proud of his vacation retreat. He obviously took the time to think about and provide everything he would like to have on a vacation, then made it available for our use. We felt like all we had to do was add family and the rest was taken care of.
This unit was beautiful inside and out. Being a corner unit, it had a lot more leg room, including windows to really make it light and bright. The lanai allowed for viewing the mountains to the East, which included afternoon rainbows, and a filtered ocean view to the West that provided amazing sunsets, which we tried to capture every night.
The amenities of the resort made us not want to leave, everything was so fun and easy. Three pools, hot tubs, Duke's restaurant, and the beach, all steps away.
Long story short, we were overly impressed and can't comment enough on what a good time was had by all. This was a complete vacation comfort package, not just a hotel room to spend nights in. The only drawback was we felt guilty leaving to explore Hawaii because of the fun we were missing at the resort. If only life's dilemmas were so tough... Mahalo!
I would definitely recommend this condo and property. The condo was clean and well kept. The pictures were exactly how the condo looked. I would definitely stay there again and recommend to family and friends. The owners were great to work with professional and prompt with email and communication regarding the condo.

43mm f1.9 or 35mm f2
Sep 29, 2010
I have asked about fast primes wider than my FA 50mm on here before, narrowed my choice to the 43/1.9 and 35/2
Only con with the 35 is it looks like I would need to source it from The Bay, but there are a couple of stores selling a number so they don't look too dodgy :-S
Anything I should know about either before spending?
Cheers, Tim.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
Management as Social Function and Liberal Art
When Karl Marx was beginning work on Das Kapital in the 185Os, the phenomenon of management was unknown. So were the enterprises that managers run. The largest manufacturing company around was a Manchester cotton mill employing fewer than three hundred people and owned by Marx's friend and collaborator Friedrich Engels. And in Engels's mill -- one of the most profitable businesses of its day -- there were no "managers," only "charge hands" who, themselves workers, enforced discipline over a handful of fellow "proletarians."
Rarely in human history has any institution emerged as quickly as management or had as great an impact so fast. In less than 150 years, management has transformed the social and economic fabric of the world's developed countries. It has created a global economy and set new rules for countries that would participate in that economy as equals. And it has itself been transformed. Few executives are aware of the tremendous impact management has had. Indeed, a good many are like M. Jourdain, the character in Molière's Bourgeois Gentilhomme, who did not know that he spoke prose. They barely realize that they practice -- or mispractice -- management. As a result, they are ill prepared for the tremendous challenges that now confront them. The truly important problems managers face do not come from technology or politics; they do not originate outside of management and enterprise. They are problems caused by the very success of management itself.
To be sure, thefundamental task of management remains the same: to make people capable of joint performance through common goals, common values, the right structure, and the training and development they need to perform and to respond to change. But the very meaning of this task has changed, if only because the performance of management has converted the workforce from one composed largely of unskilled laborers to one of highly educated knowledge workers.
On the threshold of World War I, a few thinkers were just becoming aware of management's existence. But few people even in the most advanced countries had anything to do with it. Now the largest single group in the labor force, more than one-third of the total, are people whom the U.S. Bureau of the Census calls "managerial and professional." Management has been the main agent of this transformation. Management explains why, for the first time in human history, we can employ large numbers of knowledgeable, skilled people in productive work. No earlier society could do this. Indeed, no earlier society could support more than a handful of such people. Until quite recently, no one knew how to put people with different skills and knowledge together to achieve common goals.
Eighteenth-century China was the envy of contemporary Western intellectuals because it supplied more jobs for educated people than all of Europe did -- some twenty thousand per year. Today, the United States, with about the same population China then had, graduates nearly a million college students a year, few of whom have the slightest difficulty finding well-paid employment. Management enables us to employ them.
Knowledge, especially advanced knowledge, is always specialized. By itself it produces nothing. Yet a modern business, and not only the largest ones, may employ up to ten thousand highly knowledgeable people who represent up to sixty different knowledge areas. Engineers of all sorts, designers, marketing experts, economists, statisticians, psychologists, planners, accountants, human-resources people-all working together in a joint venture. None would be effective without the managed enterprise.
There is no point in asking which came first, the educational explosion of the last one hundred years or the management that put this knowledge to productive use. Modern management and modern enterprise could not exist without the knowledge base that developed societies have built. But equally, it is management, and management alone, that makes effective all this knowledge and these knowledgeable people. The emergence of management has converted knowledge from social ornament and luxury into the true capital of any economy.
Not many business leaders could have predicted this development back in 1870, when large enterprises were first beginning to take shape. The reason was not so much lack of foresight as lack of precedent. At that time, the only large permanent organization around was the army. Not surprisingly, therefore, its commandand-control structure became the model for the men who were putting together transcontinental railroads, steel mills, modern banks, and department stores. The command model, with a very few at the top giving orders and a great many at the bottom obeying them, remained the norm for nearly one hundred years. But it was never as static as its longevity might suggest. On the contrary, it began to change almost at once, as specialized knowledge of all sorts poured into enterprise.
The first university-trained engineer in manufacturing industry was hired by Siemens in Germany in 1867 -- his name was Friedrich von Hefner-Alteneck. Within five years he had built a research department. Other specialized departments followed suit. By World War I the standard functions of a manufacturer had been developed: research and engineering, manufacturing, sales, finance and accounting, and a little later, human resources (or personnel).
Even more important for its impact on enterprise -- and on the world economy in general -- was another management-directed development that took place at this time. That was the application of management to manual work in the form of training. The child of wartime necessity, training has propelled the transformation of the world economy in the last forty years because it allows low-wage countries to do something that traditional economic theory had said could never be done: to become efficient -- and yet still low-wage -- competitors almost overnight.
Adam Smith reported that it took several hundred years for a country or region to develop a tradition of labor and the expertise in manual and managerial skills needed to produce and market a given product, whether cotton textiles or violins...

Before going further, let me note that this book is mislabeled. The excerpts in this book are from only ten of Professor Drucker's more than 30 management books. Although there is some reference to nonprofit management (where he spent half of his time), this volume does not encapsulate all of his ideas in that sphere. Many of his early ideas about society are also missing. As great as his ideas about management are, his observations about how to think are even more valuable. The book contains no material from his autobiography, Adventures of a Bystander. You cannot hope to fully appreciate this material until you read that book. What the book does contain is a fairly easy to follow series of 26 excerpts from the ten books, organized into three sections: Management, Individual, and Society. These books date back to 1954, so you get an overview of part of his work over the last 47 years. This overview will mainly be valuable to managers who have read very little Drucker, since there is essentially no new material in the book. The excerpts are also not connected by any transitions, so there is no additional perspective available from the book's organization. Here are the sources of the chapters: The New Realities, Chapters 1 and 26; Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices, Chapters 2, 3, 5, and 18; Managing for the Future, Chapters 4 and 19; Management Challenges for the 21st Century, Chapters 6, 15, 21; Managing in a Time of Great Change, Chapters 7 and 23; Practice of Management, Chapter 8; Frontiers of Management, Chapter 9; Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Chapters 10-12, 20, and 24; The Effective Executive, Chapters 13, 14, 16, and 17; and Post-Capitalist Society, Chapters 22 and 25. If you are not familiar with Professor Drucker, he is generally considered to be the first person to think systematically about what management is and needs to become. He was also the first to identify that we were moving into a knowledge-based society where the focus of work and the ways that work is organized would have to be totally transformed. His definition of what a business must do is the most often quoted one around: 'The purpose of a business is to create a customer.' Innovation and marketing are the prime tasks. The book is especially deep in references to his seminal thinking on how to innovate and to operate entrepreneurial businesses. He was also the first twentieth century thinker to see the connection between management of for profit and nonprofit organizations, and that both types of organizations are needed in growing numbers for a sound society. This book is also deeply presents his thinking about the social responsibility of business. I am still impressed by how substantial his imprint is on all management books that I read. Whether or not Professor Drucker is cited, credited, or admired in these books, almost all of them are simply restatements or elaborations on his fundamental concepts. I hope this edition of his work will help extend his influence further into the future with new generations of executives and managers. After you finish reading these landmark ideas, I suggest that you think about one element of the book from the individual section. What values do you want to bring to your work? Are you succeeding? If yes, congratulations! How can you accomplish more? If not, what can you change to make those values come to life? Use your work as a canvas upon which to paint a better world, as Professor Drucker has! Donald Mitchell, co-author of The Irresistible Growth Enterprise and The 2,000 Percent Solution
I'll say up front that I really wanted to enjoy this book. I had heard a lot about Drucker over the years and was excited to be introduced to his work. However, for the most part, I didn't find the book at all useful. In general, Drucker's work seems to focus a lot on the academic topic of management trends. This isn't the type of book that a high level executive would pass along to his or her peers in order to get down to earth ideas. To be honest, most of the information in the book is just boring. I read this book close to when I read 'Good to Great' by Jim Collins and in my opinion Drucker's work doesn't even come close to having the practical applicability of that book. Drucker seems to remind me a lot of economist John Maynard Keynes. Both have made really big names for themselves, but neither is making a difference today in their field that warrants having such a reputation. I think Drucker most certainly benefited from being the first management guru. If the same books he wrote had never been around and then they got released today, I bet almost nobody outside of academia would pay much attention to them. So, in conclusion, my recommendation would be to not read this book unless you're an academic or hard core management book junkie. Otherwise, buy 'Good to Great' by Jim Collins or read it again if you aleady have it. Greg Blencoe Author, The Ten Commandments for Managers
Revolutionary when he bagan writing, Peter Drucker provided the fund of ideas on which most subsequent management works draw. To fully understand today's cutting edge business concepts, you must, absolutely must, first understand Drucker and read his original writings. Drucker's works caused many in the business and academic worlds to scratch their heads asking 'Why didn't I think of that?' The answer: they had focused on many of the trees in the forest about which Drucker wrote, but they had not stepped back far enough to see the whole landscape and appreciate how the individual trees fit together. After reading The Essential Drucker you will want to read challenging new works such as 'Why Didn't I Think of That? - Think the Unthinkable and Achieve Creative Greatness' where the author takes you to the highest levels of current creative managerial thought so that you, unlike your predecessors in the pre-Drucker days, will not end up having to ask yourself 'Why didn't I think of that?'
If you find a little bit difficulty in how to start studying Drucker's insights. This is the best I have ever read as an introduction.

Justin Bieber Back on Twitter After Minor Car Accident
Justin Bieber is doing fine despite his recent involvement in a minor car accident. In fact, the "Never Say Never" singer has been back on Twitter, wishing his vocal coach Jan Smith a happy birthday. "happy birthday mama jan @ATLVox !! see u soon. hope you are having fun 2day," so he wrote.
The 17-year-old pop sensation got into a fender-bender on Tuesday afternoon, August 30. Los Angeles Police Department officials said he was driving a black Ferrari when it collided with a Honda Civic in the Valley area. It was noted that no one was injured and there was no visible damage to the vehicles involved, but there were paparazzi at scene.
LAPD Public Information Officer Herrera confirmed to Hollywood Life that Justin was driving with a passenger in his car. When questioned about the identity of the passenger, the officer stressed that the person was not the "Baby" hitmaker's girlfriend Selena Gomez. It was believed that the passenger was the singer's assistant.
Sources on the scene told TMZ that the car accident was so minor that Justin didn't bother to exchange information with the other driver. Nonetheless, his associates decided to call the police for safety measure, but they didn't need to file a report because there wasn't enough damage. Words are, the teen heartthrob doesn't own the Ferrari.

I echo the comments below. We have stayed three nights and have no major complaints but it is very noisy and that was a bit of a shock having arrived tired after a long flight from the UK. It is Ocean Drive but if you've never been before, be prepared! Our room, an Oceanfront Signaure King, was very comfortable although there was no information about the hotel at all and we were not shown around...we never found the pool, not that it mattered. We didn't eat at the hotel, choosing to take breakfast at the nearby News Cafe but did notice the pastries, juice, coffee and tea laid out every morning for all residents. Lighting could be improved...it's impossible to see into the safe in the dressing room without a torch and the switches on the bedside lights are so high one has to almost get out of bed to switch them on and off! If you want the South Beach experience, I would certainly recommend The Tides...if you want quiet and relaxing, look elsewhere.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Tides South Beach is an iconic hotel located on Ocean Drive, just steps from the crystal water of the Atlantic Ocean and Miami's most exciting dining and nightlife locations.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

True Life Blues Lyrics
Artist: Bill Monroe
Album: And Stars Of The Bluegrass Hall Of Fame
I hate to see the sun sink low
Just for a cause you ought to know
For it's true love I can't forget
All of my sorrow you'll soon regret
You promised me love that was true
And I'm sorry to say that I believed in you
It's all turned out just like a dream
Left me so sad in the world it seems
There's dishes to wash and a house to clean
There's washing to do, oh it seems so mean
There's a million words I can't explain
Think of this girl, before you change your name
They'll go away and leave you at home
They never care if you're alone
They seem to forget they've got a wife
This story is sad, but it's a true life

Ralph Lauren, longtime sponsor of Polo Golf Ambassador and 2014 U.S. Ryder Cup Team Captain Tom Watson, will design the official uniforms to be worn by Team USA during the week of the 40th Ryder Cup, Sept. 23–28, at Gleneagles in Perthshire, Scotland.
"Ralph Lauren is a quintessential American brand that has always connected us with the best in sports," said PGA of America President Ted Bishop. "How fitting it is that the company's longstanding partnership with Tom Watson culminates in outfitting this year's U.S. Ryder Cup Team."
This year marks the first in Ryder Cup history in which the Ryder Cup Collection will be available for purchase, allowing customers to shop the collection and share in the countdown to golf's ultimate event.
As part of the partnership, a portion of the proceeds from the sales of the Ralph Lauren Ryder Cup Collection will benefit 41 PGA Sections, which support PGA Professionals who grow, teach and manage the game of golf. The Ralph Lauren Ryder Cup Collection will include a timeless array of Polo Golf and RLX Golf apparel, and will be available for purchase at Ralph Lauren.com and select retail stores.
"The Ryder Cup has a history and a following that is unrivaled around the world, and we are honored to be selected by the PGA of America to design the uniforms for our esteemed golfers as they represent America," said David Lauren, Executive Vice President of Advertising, Marketing and Corporate Communications for Ralph Lauren. "We have been proud to work with Tom Watson for more than 20 years and we wish him and Team USA the best of luck ahead of this year's Ryder Cup."
Tom Watson began his partnership with the brand as a Polo Golf Ambassador in 1993, the same year he captained the U.S. to its last overseas Ryder Cup triumph. "I am pleased that the PGA of America has selected Ralph Lauren to design Team USA's uniforms," said Watson. "Ralph Lauren has been a wonderful supporter of golf through its understanding of the traditions of the game and its brand integrity. Come September, our team will be dressed to play like champions."
Ralph Lauren's patronage of the Ryder Cup reinforces the brand's dedication to golf as well as its leadership in major global sporting initiatives. Since 1987, Polo Golf has defined excellence from the club to the course. From outfitting professionals who represent what is extraordinary about the sport to a sharpened focus on the needs of the modern golfer, the legacy of Polo Golf is in its respect for tradition and in its dedication to the future of the game.
Introduced in 2006, RLX Golf is rooted in the design heritage of Ralph Lauren and features superior high-performance technology. RLX Golf combines functional, slimmed-down shapes with modern, technical fabrics. Ensuring the ultimate in function and comfort, RLX works closely with the makers of the most innovative fabrics available.
