Looking forward to World Book Day with a giveaway
Posted on | February 25, 2013 | 88 Comments
Thursday March 7 is World Book Day, and I can't wait!
So what is World Book Day? Well, it's a UNESCO designated worldwide celebration of books and reading, and is marked in over 100 countries around the globe. Now in its 16th year, World Book Day aims to ensure as many children as possible explore the pleasures of books and reading, so you can see why I'm so keen on it.
Here in the UK, school children are entitled to receive a World Book Day £1 Book Token (or equivalent €1.50 Book Token in Ireland) to exchange for a FREE £1 World Book Day book (or it can be redeemed against any book or audio book costing £2.99 or more at a participating bookshop or book club).
World Book Day is a perfect excuse to do something fun around books. I'll definitely be watching The Biggest Book Show on Earth but maybe you'll find the perfect activity for your family or class in NurtureStore's 50 ideas for World Book Day, or perhaps you might prefer to get creative in the kitchen and create a dish inspired by your family's favourite book, and enter it into my Edible Book Festival.
Whatever you do, why not enter the competition I have for you today – to win an entire set of the World Book Day books:
All you need to do to be in with a chance of winning is leave a comment on this post!
Please note:
*Tweet about the competition, perhaps using this text: Win a complete set of @worldbookdayUK books over at @playbythebook's blog http://www.playingbythebook.net/?p=24420
*Follow @worldbookdayuk on twitter
*Share this competition on Facebook
For any of these to count, you must leave a separate comment on this blog post for each extra entry.
Good luck!

February 25th, 2013 @ 9:04 amI've just seen the World Book Day website- very exciting. There is a great selection of books, and my 9 year old son will definitely be getting his hands on the Tom Gates and Tony Robinson titles. The free online book festival is a great idea, and I'll be visiting 'Discover' for the first time to attend some of the author/illustrator events.
February 25th, 2013 @ 9:07 amGreat competition. My daughters are also very much looking forward to world book day.

February 27th, 2013 @ 10:33 amHi Zoe
I'm organising our school's first ever Book Swap although we are celebrating it the day BEFORE WBD for some bizarre reason (must be something else happening at the school on the 7th!). We're asking pupils to bring in a book they no longer want and exchange it for a token which they can hand in for a book in the school hall. We're also using the event as an opportunity to recruit volunteers to help with literacy initiatives in school – reading with and to children, taking them to the school library, etc. Scary but hopefully fun!

What celebs do most women dream naughty dreams about?
by Sheryl Stewart
posted Oct 5 2009 1:56PM
Women's Health magazine did a sleep survey and found some interesting things! For example, the average woman hits the snooze bar 3 times each morning (ok, I must say I am waaaayyy above average on this one, haha!). They also found that the average bed time is 11pm and the average wakeup is 6am. The most common nightmare is someone chasing after you.....and as far as reeeeallly good dreams go.....35% of us have had a celeb hook up dream. What celebs do women dream of most often?
1- Brad pitt
2 - Matthew McConaghey
3- Robert Pattinson (??!!??!!!)
Seriously ladies? You would rather dream of this:
instead of this?
Hmmmmm.....maybe they dream about Robert because they can't escape him in real life! Haha! Dude is everywhere.

The pineal gland, also known as the pineal body, conarium or epiphysis cerebri, is a small endocrine gland in the vertebrate brain. It produces the serotonin derivative melatonin, a hormone that affects the modulation of wake/sleep patterns and seasonal functions. Its shape resembles a tiny pine cone (hence its name), and it is located near the centre of the brain, between the two hemispheres, tucked in a groove where the two rounded thalamic bodies join.

Epidemic Alert and Response
EID Updates:2>
| ||
Vol. 5, No. 12 (13 November 2008) | Main Updates index Yellow Fever Epizootic in Brazil and ArgentinaIn October of this year, the health authorities of Argentina and Brazil have confirmed the occurrence of yellow fever epizootics in the Misiones province, Argentina, and the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, respectively. In Brazil, the animal deaths occurred on 30 September 2008 in the municipality of Tres Passos and, on 15 October 2008, in the municipality of Tiradentes do Sul, both cities located in a region where yellow fever epizootics were registered among primates in the years 2001 and 2002. In addition, monkey deaths were registered in the municipalities of Santa Rosa and Santo Cristo, both located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Samples were collected for laboratory analysis in the four municipalities. To date, only the Tiradentes do Sul epizootic has been confirmed for yellow fever. In Argentina, on 18 October 2008, monkey deaths were reported in Paraje el Ceibo, Guaraní department, Misiones province. The yellow fever epizootic was confirmed on 28 October 2008. Up to 13 November 2008, there have been no more rumors on monkey deaths in this area or any other. Surveillance activities regarding monkey deaths and on this epizootic are being carried out continuously in both countries. In addition, activities for surveillance (of febrile jaundice syndrome) and prevention among humans have been intensified. Technical Note: Given that spread of yellow fever virus among monkeys in enzootic areas of both Brazil and Argentina, we are emphasizing that any countries with enzootic areas follow the recommendation of the PAHO Technical Advisory Group on Vaccine-Preventable Diseases.
For more information in the situation in Brazil, see the technical note (in Portuguese) published by the Ministry of Health of Brazil, where there is a map of the affected areas. Translation of Map Title: State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil: Area with Registered Monkey Deaths and Confirmed Yellow Fever Epizootic between September and October 2008.

Today's garden has become a crayon box of possibilities with vegetables available in a wide range of colors. Orange carrots, red watermelon, yellow squash and green leafy vegetables offer a rainbow harvest. Especially intriguing is the fact that a particular food pigment indicates its phytonutrient pedigree and associated health benefits. Furthermore, unusual colors add phytonutrient benefits. For example, purple cauliflower offers the added benefits of purple phytonutrients to those already in this vegetable. Learn more about the connection between a food color, its corresponding phytonutrient and health benefits.

OUR AMERICA WITH LISA LING Returns to OWN on 1/22
Oprah Winfrey Network's popular docu-series "Our America with Lisa Ling" returns Tuesday, January 22 at 10 p.m. ET/PT with eight new one-hour episodes. Hosted by award-winning journalist and author Lisa Ling, the series offers an in-depth examination of life in America and its complex subcultures.
From Americans whose sexual proclivities fall outside the mainstream to the obesity crisis in the United States to our nation's growing senior population, this season of "Our America with Lisa Ling" tackles a range of thought-provoking and sometimes controversial topics.
Upcoming new episodes include:
"Shades of Kink" (Premiere Episode - Tuesday, January 22) - Ling goes beyond the fictional book Fifty Shades of Grey to explore the very real world of bondage, discipline and sadomasochism.
"Generation XXL"(Tuesday, January 29) - Taking a journey to the American South, the epicenter of our nation's obesity crisis, Ling meets children and families faced with a health crisis as they try to lose weight and live healthier lives.
"The Secret Lives of Seniors" (Tuesday, February 5) - Ling tries to help her own father navigate the challenges of aging while also exploring a graying American population who are speed dating, having sex and breaking track records, among other things.
"3 AM Girls - Breaking News" (Tuesday, February 12) - In an episode update, Ling returns to the streetsof Washington, D.C. to see how two young women who were caught up in the shadowy underworld of domestic human sex trafficking are faring, and to catch up with the crusaders who risked their lives to secure their safety.
Additional episodes this seasons include: Ling's examination of polyamorous households who prefer multiple partners over monogamy; an inside look at a radical new religious movement; a look at two cases of child abuse and a troubling pattern of inaction that is failing to protect young people; and an unforgettable exploration of loyalty and love, as Ling meets with family members whose relatives have committed unimaginable crimes.
"Our America with Lisa Ling" is produced by part2 pictures. It is executive produced by Lisa Ling, David Shadrack Smith, Gregory Henry and Amy Bucher.
A joint venture between Harpo, Inc. and Discovery Communications, OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network is a multi-platform media company designed to entertain, inform and inspire people to live their best lives.

Last month Obama renewed his pledge to make an effort to close the detention center [JURIST report]. Also in May JURIST Guest Columnist David Frakt of the University of Pittsburgh School of Law argued that the Obama administration should release those detainees [JURIST op-ed] held at Guantanamo Bay who have already been declared to not be a danger to the US. In April UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay [official profile] called for US authorities to close down the Guantanamo prison camp [JURIST report], emphasizing the continued indefinite incarcerations of many detainees as a clear violation of international law.
The Federal Constitutional Court in February ruled [judgment, in German] that same-sex couples in a civil union can legally adopt [JURIST report] the non-biological children of their partners. In August the Federal Constitutional Court ruled that same-sex couples in a civil union should receive the same tax benefits as heterosexual married couples with regard to land transfer tax [JURIST report], further noting that the decision should apply retroactively. That ruling came during the same month that 13 members of the country's ruling Christian Democratic Union (CDU) [party website, in German] called for same-sex couples to be granted joint-filing tax benefits. In August 2010 the land transfer tax was amended to allow the same benefits [JURIST report] as heterosexual couples for same-sex couples in case of a divorce. In June of the same year an administrative court in Berlin held that a same-sex marriage performed abroad must be recognized in a registered partnership[JURIST report] in Germany.
The US Senate [official website] voted in December to extend [JURIST report] the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Amendments Act of 2008 [text, PDF] for five years. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) authorizes the FISC and grants the NSA the authority to conduct surveillance of Americans' phone calls and emails in attempts to protect against terrorism and other foreign threats. FISA has been controversial since its inception in 1978 and remains controversial in post-9/11 [JURIST backgrounder] America. Last year scholars argued that the law too heavily favors the government by creating an impossible evidentiary burden for defendants and that Congress may have chosen to protect national security interests [JURIST op-eds] over those of criminal defendants without considering the constitution.
[T]he ongoing aerial bombardments in Darfur, which can only be attributed to one party in this conflict; the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war; the deliberate imposition of restrictions on delivery of humanitarian aid even in the face of an urgent humanitarian crisis; and the ongoing impunity for these crimes are major problems for Darfur and for all of us who care about what happens to the Darfuri victims who suffer the brunt of these crimes.
The continued violence has been a major issue in Sudan. In June Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website] reported that Ali Kosheib, former militia leader turned officer of the Sudan Central Reserve Police, was spotted in an attack [JURIST report] against Salamat communities in Central Darfur in April. Last December Bensouda told the UN Security Council that they are not doing enough [JURIST report] to root out Sudanese war criminals. In October the UN urged [JURIST report] the Sudanese government to investigate an attack on one of its convoys, noting that since the establishment of African Union-United Nations Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) [official website] in December 2007, 43 peacemakers have been killed. In August the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights [official website] urged [JURIST report] Sudan to investigate violence against protesters in Darfur.
The settlement agreement marks the culmination of a legal struggle that began in 2009. In July 2011 High Court Judge Richard McCombe rejected the government contention [JURIST report] that the alleged abuses occurred too long ago and that all liability of the colonial administration passed to the Kenyan government upon gaining independence in 1963. The Kenyans first sued the British government [JURIST report] in June 2009 to bring to court their allegations that they were abused in British Colonial prison camps. The Mau Mau rebellion was led by members of the largely impoverished Kikuyu tribe [Africa Guide backgrounder] and lasted from 1952-1960. The uprising was notorious for atrocities committed by both the rebels and British colonial forces. Official casualty figures eventually set the number of European deaths at 32 and the number of Kenyans killed at just over 11,000. Approximately 90,000 Kenyans were executed, tortured or maimed during the crackdown [AP report] against the Mau Mau, according to the Kenya Human Rights Commission [advocacy website].
This comes just 13 days after Obama urged [JURIST report] the court to delay implementation of the ruling. In 2005 organizations and individuals concerned with women's health filed suit in the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York [official website] in pursuit of expanded access to the drugs, including over the counter availability regardless of age. The judge ruled in their favor, but in December 2011 the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) [official website], Kathleen Sebelius [HHS profile], intervened to block the ruling as it related to minors, citing inadequate evidence concerning adverse health effects. In April US District Judge Edward Korman overruled [JURIST report] Sebelius' "unprecedented," decision, calling the prior requirement for adolescents under age 16 "unjustified and burdensome." The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] appealed [JURIST report] from the decision in May, stating that the judge had overstepped his legal authority.
This is the latest development in the case against Bales. The prosecution announced last November that they would seek the death penalty [JURIST report]. That announcement came just one week after hearings in the case began [JURIST report]. The charges of alcohol and steroid usage was added [JURIST report] last June. The first charges were filed [JURIST report] last March. There have also been other incidents of US military personnel killing civilians.

The PathScan® Total E-Cadherin Sandwich ELISA Kit #7886 is a solid phase sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) that detects endogenous levels of E-cadherin. An E-cadherin mouse antibody has been coated onto the microwells. After incubation with cell lysates, E-cadherin is captured by the coated antibody. Following extensive washing, an E-Cadherin rabbit detection antibody is added to detect the captured E-cadherin. Anti-rabbit IgG, HRP-linked antibody is then used to recognize the bound detection antibody. HRP substrate, TMB, is added to develop color. The magnitude of the absorbance for this developed color is proportional to the quantity of E-cadherin.
Antibodies in kit are custom formulations specific to kit.
Specificity / Sensitivity
CST's PathScan® Total E-Cadherin Sandwich ELISA Kit #7886 detects endogenous levels of E-cadherin. As shown in Figure 1, using the Total E-Cadherin Sandwich ELISA Kit #7886, a high level of E-cadherin is detected in A431 and MCF-7 cells, but not in E-cadherin null Jurkat cells. The PathScan® Total E-Cadherin Sandwich ELISA Kit #7886 does not cross-react with human N-, P- or VE-cadherin. This kit detects proteins from the indicated species, as determined through in-house testing, but may also detect homologous proteins from other species.
ELISA - Western correlation
Figure 1. E-cadherin is detected by PathScan® Total E-Cadherin Sandwich ELISA Kit #7886. Lysates were prepared from various cell lines and analyzed for E-cadherin using PathScan® Total E-Cadherin Sandwich ELISA Kit #7886 or by western blotting. Absorbance readings at 450 nm are shown in the top figure while the corresponding western blot using an E-cadherin antibody is shown in the bottom figure.
Cadherins are a superfamily of transmembrane glycoproteins that contain cadherin repeats of approximately 100 residues in their extracellular domain. Cadherins mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and play critical roles in normal tissue development (1). The classic cadherin subfamily includes N-, P-, R-, B-, and E-cadherins, as well as about ten other members that are found in adherens junctions, a cellular structure near the apical surface of polarized epithelial cells. The cytoplasmic domain of classical cadherins interacts with β-catenin, γ-catenin (also called plakoglobin), and p120 catenin. β-catenin and γ-catenin associate with α-catenin, which links the cadherin-catenin complex to the actin cytoskeleton (1,2). While β- and γ-catenin play structural roles in the junctional complex, p120 regulates cadherin adhesive activity and trafficking (1-4). Investigators consider E-cadherin an active suppressor of invasion and growth of many epithelial cancers (1-3). Research studies indicate that cancer cells have up-regulated N-cadherin in addition to loss of E-cadherin. This change in cadherin expression is called the "cadherin switch". N-cadherin cooperates with the FGF receptor, leading to overexpression of MMP-9 and cellular invasion (3). Research studies have shown that in endothelial cells, VE-cadherin signaling, expression, and localization correlate with vascular permeability and tumor angiogenesis (5,6). Investigators have also demonstrated that expression of P-cadherin, which is normally present in epithelial cells, is also altered in ovarian and other human cancers (7,8).

Concur Technologies (CNQR - Analyst Report) reported strong second quarter 2013 results with earnings per share (non-GAAP pre-tax income) of 24 cents, well above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of -3 cents a share. However, earnings were down 27.3% year over year from 33 cents a share reported in the prior-year quarter.
Pro forma earnings during the quarter were primarily driven by 100% growth in new bookings. The bookings strength was primarily attributable to better-than-expected momentum in the company's federal government ETS2 contract and continued strength in the commercial business.
On a GAAP basis, net loss was 14 cents per share compared with the year-ago net loss of 9 cents per share.
Total revenue was $127.4 million, up 17.5% year over year, driven by exceptionally strong performance from the SMB market segment and investment made over the past few years.
Income and Expenses
Non-GAAP operating margin was 12.4% in the reported quarter compared with 18.5% in the prior-year quarter. During the second quarter of 2013, the company reported an operating loss of $2.6 million compared with an operating income of $6.1 million a year ago. Sales and marketing expenses were $55.5 million, up 32.6% year over year from $41.9 million, while general and administration expense was $20.3 million compared with $16.6 million in the prior-year quarter.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents were $224.4 million at the end of the reported quarter compared with $302.2 million at the end of Sep 30, 2012. The company reported total equity of $734.9 million compared with $74101 million as of Sep 30, 2012. Net cash from operating activities was $18.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 versus $25.1 million in the comparable prior-year quarter, due to higher working capital requirements.
Concurrent with the earnings release, management provided guidance for the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 is expected to grow approximately 23% year over year
For the third quarter, Concur expects non-GAAP pre-tax income per share to be 37 cents, which excludes the effects of non-cash related items such as stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, and the accretion of the discount on our senior convertible notes. It also excludes the non-cash accounting implications and cash fees and expenses of acquisitions and other related strategic activity.
Concur expects revenues for full fiscal 2013 to grow approximately 23% year-over-year from fiscal 2012 compared to 25% mentioned earlier. Full fiscal 2013 earnings is expected to be $1.40 while operating margin for the same period is expected to be in the range of 16% to 19%.
Cash flow from operations in fiscal 2013 is expected to be at least $80 million, excluding the TripIt contingent consideration settlement, excess tax benefits from share based compensation and acquisition and other related costs.
Capital expenditures for the year are expected to be marginally higher in the range of 6% to 8% of fiscal 2013 revenue.
Concur currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). However, some other companies that can be considered at the moment are Progressive Software Corp. (PRGS - Snapshot Report), which has a Zacks Rank #1 and Symantec Corp. (SYMC - Analyst Report) and Adobe Systems Inc. (ADBE - Analyst Report); having Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Two men were shot to death after an apparent home invasion Sunday morning in the South Chicago neighborhood.
About 5 a.m., Chicago police were summoned to an apartment building in the 9100 block of South Commercial Avenue. The caller said a man had been shot in a neighboring apartment and turned up at the neighbor's door for help, according to police.The injured man collapsed in the neighbor's apartment and was dead by the time officers arrived. Police found a second man shot to death in the building.
Monday, the Cook County Medical Examiner's office identified the two as 35-year-old Salah Yousef Jaber Muhieddin and 18-year-old Harb Ibraihim Yousef Mohyddin.
Police are investigating the shooting as an apparent home invasion, according to Chicago Police Officer Michael Sullivan, a department spokesman.
No one is in custody as Area South detectives investigate.
The two were among four people shot and killed in violence across the city last weekend. Twelve others were wounded in reported shootings across Chicago.

In 2000, Chipotle Mexican Grill, a fast-food chain, began using cage-free pork in their burritos and tacos. This year, all 8 million pounds of pork they'll use will come from cage-free pigs. In 2005, Whole Foods Market began exclusively selling eggs from cage-free hens. Then, Ben & Jerry's followed suit and became the first major food manufacturer to commit to using only cage-free eggs in their ice cream. Burger King, the world's second largest burger chain, has also announced that 5 percent of its eggs and 10 percent of its pork now comes from animals not confined to crates or cages. Now that you've heard both sides of the argument, Oprah says you can start making conscious choices about the food you eat.

Millard qualifies for U.S. Amateur
Sixth Blue Raider ever to do so
July 30, 2008 · MT Media RelationsRising sophomore Jason Millard will play in the U.S. Amateur after winning a qualifier Tuesday. (Tom Campbell)
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Hurting has never felt so good for Middle Tennessee rising sophomore Jason Millard.
The Murfreesboro native, who earned honorable mention All-American honors as a freshman for the Blue Raiders, was low medalist during qualifying for the 2008 U.S. Amateur at Willow Creek Golf Course in Knoxville Tuesday.
Millard shot a 9-under 131 during the 36-hole stroke play tournament on the par-70 course to secure one of three qualifying spots for what is regarded as the pinnacle of amateur golf. The U.S. Amateur will take place at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club in Pinehurst, N.C., Aug. 18-24.
"It was a one-day tournament, 36 holes, in 95-degree weather," Millard said the morning after he became the sixth Middle Tennessee golfer to qualify for the U.S. Amateur and the third in three years (Craig Smith, Kent Bulle). "I have never hurt this bad afterwards but I'm pretty sore."
The pain Millard's body absorbed was not nearly as bad as the beating he put on the field of more than 70 hopefuls playing for three spots and an opportunity to compete for the U.S. Amateur Championship. He was 4-under through five holes after chipping in twice to assume the top spot on the leader board.
Although the scores were close, Millard remained under par the entire 36 holes and never relinquished the lead he gained early in the event. He finished the first 18 at 6-under 64 and came back just as strong in the second 18 when he shot 3-under 67. He shot 36 on the front and sizzled on the back with a 31. His 131 was one shot better than second and the third qualifier shot a 133.
Rising Blue Raider senior Chas Narramore was just two shots out of qualifying, finishing 5-under 135.
"It was probably the best I have ever played in one day for 36 holes," Millard said. "During the first round I hit the ball really well but I didn't putt well. In the second round I started putting better but I didn't hit as well. I guess that's golf; I guess I got tired."
But a tired Millard was still stronger than anyone in the field. The driven competitor's got game and he's got tremendous upside. Middle Tennessee head coach Whit Turnbow said Millard is starting to realize just how good he can be on the links.
"He has been on quite a roll the last three or four months," Turnbow said. "It really is due to him coming into his own, maturing, and starting to figure out how good he is. He experienced some things in the last few months that will aid in his development.
"Jason's strength is that he has no real weaknesses. He is a very well-rounded player. He is a tremendous ball striker, is good around the greens and he makes putts. He just has to stay humble and if he does then he is just starting to scratch the surface."
Golfers at the U.S. Amateur will play two rounds of stroke play - one round of 18 on two different days. Following two days of stroke play the field of 312 golfers will be reduced to the lowest 64 scorers. The remainder of the tournament is match play.
The champion receives an exemption into the 2009 U.S. Open and British Open, and a probable invite to play in the 2009 Masters Tournament, if he remains an amateur.
"Going into the qualifier I didn't really have expectations," Millard said. "I wanted to qualify but I knew the scores would be low and I had to play well. As far as the (U.S. Amateur) my one goal is to make it to match play and anything can happen from there."
And Turnbow said he wouldn't count Millard out based on his tremendous growth as a collegian.
"I would not be surprised to see Jason make the cut and get into match play and go deep," Turnbow said. "This course will not be set up any more difficult than what he saw at Purdue (for the NCAA National Championship) and he was a Top 20 performer there. He's that good but sometimes it boils down to whether Jason believes that."
Millard's play on the course should serve as a constant reminder.

Pats can succeed sans Hernandez
Release of tight end shouldn't impair offensive production

AP Photo/Michael DwyerThe Patriots' offense will have to make do without Aaron Hernandez.
The NFL is a copycat league, and over the past couple of years, the offense everyone has tried to copy is the two-tight end scheme of the New England Patriots. Unfortunately, the Patriots won't be able to field those schemes in the same way this season. They already knew that they were likely to be without Rob Gronkowski for at least part of the season because of lingering injuries and offseason back surgery. But they now know they definitely will be without Aaron Hernandez for this season.
In the real world, the big story is obviously Hernandez's murder trial. But in the sports world, one big question is how the release of Hernandez will hurt the Patriots' offense. The answer: probably less than you expect.

EU May Get Involved in Airline Passenger Rules
The European Union is considering beefed up measures to help stranded passengers get compensation and find quicker ways to get home.
EU Transport Commissioner Siim Kallas said Wednesday that a new package with improved measures would also boost carriers from the 27 member nations in global competition since consumers would be drawn to companies offering the best conditions.
"These rules only apply if you are on a European carrier. So my message is "Fly European," Kallas told reporters.

Principe Discos' Kuduro Mutations, Nina Kraviz' Ice-House, 8 More Dance LPs in Control Voltage
ALBUM OF THE MONTHB.N.M. / P.D.D.G., S/T (Príncipe)The Príncipe label's output barely amounts to a trickle — just five EPs over the past three years — but it's enough to confirm that Lisbon is currently the source of some of the most exciting new developments in electronic music. Príncipe signees DJ Marfox and DJ Nigga Fox tore the roof off Krakow's Unsound festival this fall with DJ sets full of rubbery melodies and elastic rhythms drawn from kuduro, batida, kizomba, funaná, tarrachinha, and Afro-house, all enlivened by scraps of rap and dubstep. It's the best party music in the world, but Príncipe's new release pulls back the curtain on quieter, more abstracted sounds from the Angolan diaspora. In the process, it reminds us how little most of us outside Lisbon really know about this culture. To wit, this mini-comp introduces us to seven new names.
Philip Sherburne's 25 Best Albums of 2013
To finish out the year, we'll be offering the top 25 albums from various SPIN staffers. Today, Contributor Philip Sherburne.My iTunes library up and died on me this week. The music's still there, backed up on an external hard drive, but all that structure — years' worth of playlists, organized by month and mood and BPM — is gone, locked away in the confines of a corrupted XML file.This is the part where I'm supposed to say how it's weirdly liberating, forced me to interact with my music in a new way, led to the discovery of hidden gems in the landslide of data, etc., but no: It's an enormous pain in the ass. (Meanwhile, after moving some 5,000 LPs across an ocean and two borders in the last two years, they lie in chaos, a well-intentioned alphabetization project having been abandoned somewhere between Thomas Dolby and Durutti Column.
Pioneering Noise Musician Zbigniew Karkowski Dead at 55
Zbigniew Karkowski, a Polish experimental musician whose work amplified the boundaries of noise music — and also its volume — died today, according to his friend and collaborator Anton Lukoszevieze. He had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer just 10 weeks ago. He was 55.Karkowki was regarded in experimental-music circles as one of noise music's most fearlessly extreme practitioners. Stories circulate that his music once cracked a toilet at San Francisco's Bloody Angle Compound studios; a 2001 performance at Montreal's FCMM, playing needle-nosed sine waves tuned to the resonant frequency of the room, sparked a fire in a speaker and sent chunks of the ceiling tumbling to the floor. But he was also known as one of noise music's most contemplative thinkers.
Dance Tracks of the Week: Burial's 'Rival Dealer' Sounds Almost Optimistic
Burial, Rival Dealer (Hyperdub) Burial's greatest strength has always been his greatest weakness as well: He transmits such an overwhelming sense of sorrow that there's practically no room left for anything else. There's something almost suffocating about the maudlin character of his music, which howls like a wind tunnel for the testing of weapons-grade pathos. How much bleak could it get? The answer, obviously, is none more bleak. Coupled with the ardor of his fans, Burial's music begins to seem almost a little bit coercive, as though it were daring you to resist its melancholic free-fall; to remain unmoved is to fail electronic music's version of the Voight-Kampff test, and resign yourself to a fate in which all your pathetic robot memories and opinions will eventually be lost in time like tears in rain.
Heatsick's 'Re-Engineering' Is an Easy-Listening Grad-School Thesis You Can Dance To
How seriously are we supposed to take Heatsick? This is the artist, after all, who began his solo career recording a string of cassettes and CDRs with titles like Pre-Cum Fog Ballet, Milky Quilt, Searing Light of Glue Prisms, and Solipsistic Pillow; the artist who uses a Casio keyboard with most of its keys missing and plays two- or three-hour sets of slowly morphing loops; the artist who occasionally sprays his audience with Chanel No. 5. (Beats being in the front row at a Steve Aoki gig, at least.) The artist who, on his new album, includes lyrics like "Algorithm is a dancer."No shots, by the way. If anything, electronic music could use more dodgy puns of dubious intent. And if Britney can sell (and sing about) perfume, why shouldn't Heatsick embrace the olfactory?
Dance Tracks of the Week: DJ Koze and Matthew Herbert Make Magic Together
DJ Koze, Amygdala Remixes (Pampa) "It's magical / It's magical / It's magical / It's magical." Bold words — especially when you open with them, intoning the blissed-out proclamation like a mantra. But damned if Matthew Herbert doesn't deliver on the sentiment with his new remix for DJ Koze's "Magical Boy." Motivated, perhaps, by Koze's sublime remix, late last year, of Herbert and Dani Siciliano's 2001 song "It's Only" — one of the most unequivocally sentimental songs the squirrelly German producer has ever done — Herbert puts the kibosh on his own cantankerous instincts and settles into 10 minutes of wide-eyed wonder.
SPIN's 2013 Trend of the Year: Disclosure and Rudimental Lead the Dance/Pop New School
Joyous abandon abounded in dance music this year. It usually does, of course, since that's kind of the whole point of dance music. But in 2013, it was particularly present in a rapidly developing, U.K.-centric sound that mixes classic club tropes with ginormous pop hooks and runs it all through some of the most expensive-sounding production that computers can render: four-dimensional, florid as a hothouse, as springy as a mountain of bubble wrap atop a deep-pile shag rug.It wasn't so much dance-pop as "dance/pop," where the slash mark denotes the delirious balancing act between those two opposing forces.
Eminem Fans Plaster Afrojack's Facebook Page With 'Who?'s
With more than 3 million Facebook likes, multiple hit records, and a regular presence in the tabloids (thanks to the whole Paris Hilton thing), Afrojack is one of the world's most famous DJs. To judge from the state of his Facebook page, however, he may have something of an image problem. If Paris Hilton is famous for being famous, Afrojack has suddenly become famous for being… Wait, who?Oh right, Afrojack. You see, for the past few weeks, every comment left on Afrojack's Facebook page reads only, "Who?" or "Who? Who?" or "MR WHO," or some variation about the same. There are thousands of them — tens of thousands, maybe. More "who"s than a Doctor Who impersonators' convention; more "who"s than an old-growth forest teeming with owls.Has the 'jack been hacked? Who could be behind such a stunt?
Hear PANES' Silky R&B Slow Burner 'A Narrative. An End.'
Not to steal thunder from Neneh Cherry, who in February will release her first solo album in more than 16 years, but the kids, as they say, are coming up from behind. Earlier this month, Cherry's daughter, Tyson McVey, revealed the debut song from her own musical project, PANES. Now McVey and her musical partner, Shaun Savage — a member of Hackney's Flesh & Bone collective, whose credits include Factory Floor, Arthur Beatrice, and Neneh Cherry herself — are back with their new song, "A Narrative. An End."Sounds a lot like a beginning, if you ask us: The new song suggests that PANES have both chops and range.
Todd Terje Soundtracks Your Disco Ice Capades with 'Spiral' and 'Q'
We're used to Todd Terje commandeering our summers with his poolside-friendly tunes like "Lanzarote" and "Strandbar" (which translates as "beach bar," just in case the whole samba-disco vibe didn't give it away). Now, with the grey maw of winter looming, the cheery Norwegian producer turns up with two new tunes, and, surprise! They sound a lot like summer."Spiral" is a beaming, Italo-inspired answer to Miami Vice, right down to the roto-toms. It's not all so sunny, though: Listen closely, and you may even hear a hint of the Cure's Disintegration in the chiming guitars. The B-side's "Q," meanwhile, is a 12-minute foray into what the label describes as "trance-not-trance," and we're inclined to agree with them.
