Dark people. People who are over there, not here. Other people. People who write with funny characters. People who listen to music with lots of drums.
You know who I mean. Get them. Get them all. Turn them into glass. Make them glow.
Update – Digby's on it, too. And Crooks and Liars.

Elizabethtown coach Tim Mudd has heard all this week that his Lady Panthers are a shoo-in to meet the state's top-ranked team in the semifinals of the Girls' 5th Region Basketball Tournament on Sunday afternoon in Greensburg.
He's not buying any of the hype.
If the Lady Panthers (22-7) don't play well at 6 tonight against the Caverna Lady Colonels (16-14) at Green County, it could lead to a premature end to their season.

Posted: 1:51 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2009
By Jamie Dupree
One thing I really like about the internet is how fast information zips around the world. One thing I shake my head about when it comes to the internet is how much bad information zips around the world.
Robert in South Carolina emailed me on Tuesday, wondering about talk he had seen on the net about some kind of gun control provisions getting slipped into the stimulus bill.
And he wasn't the only worried about gun control language.
"I can't find any verification of this but it certianly sounds real enough," wrote former police officer Keith Hensley.
At issue was H.R. 45, which was introduced earlier this year by Rep. Bobby Rush of Chicago, which would set up a gun licensing system.
And that wasn't all.
"I am also hearing that the Medical Care portion (of the stimulus) also includes testing requirements for elderly buying ammo and guns," wrote Robert.
So, what's the truth?
I can assure you that the word "gun" does not appear anywhere in the new stimulus law. Nor does the word "ammunition" or "weapon."
The story seems to have started with a piece written by Judi McLeod, a former columnist for the Toronto Star newspaper, who now runs CanadaFreePress.com, a conservative news web site.
"Dem's Use "Stimulus" as Cover for More Gun Control," was the headline of an article that they focused more on the bill referenced above.
I've had a series of people ask about gun control in emails, so let me get into that subject as well.
No, I don't see the Democratic Congress moving on gun control legislation.
Yes, they have the advantage in votes in the House and Senate, but I'm not sure most people in the Congress have the stomach to re-open that divisive battle right now.
And I am sure that there are more enough votes in the Senate to block any such action with a filibuster.
But if the Democrats chalk up another big win in the mid-term Congressional elections of 2010, then they can start to enlarge their agenda as well.

Amanda Fucking Palmer's next album is a big, super-duper extravanganza, with lots of bells and whistles funded by Kickstarter. She wants $100K. She's at 258K as of this morning. And I just kicked in:
hi folks, it's AFP. this is my first BIG, LEGIT studio album undertaking since breaking from a major label. i've spent four years writing the songs for this record, and more recently, putting together the perfect band, The Grand Theft Orchestra, comprised of genius musicians/arrangers/programmers MICHAEL MCQUILKEN, CHAD RAINES, and JHEREK BISCHOFF. in march, we locked ourselves up in a studio in Australia and, with the help of producer/engineer John Congleton (who's worked with a zillion amazing people including St. Vincent, Modest Mouse, and Xiu Xiu), we made what I believe is my best fucking album to date. it sounds...BEYOND EPIC. we laid down "The Bed Song", "Massachusetts Avenue", "The Killing Type", "Trout Heart Replica" and a slew of other tracks...some solo piano, but many featuring HORNS (locally sourced in Melbourne, Australia!), SYNTHESIZERS, GUITAAAARRRRR, and BIG BAD-ASS ORCHESTRAL ARRANGEMENTS that will blow your domepiece. we're working on finalizing the arrangements and mastering as i write this text. i expect great, big, giant things to happen when this record comes out in september. the band & i will be touring it across the globe ALL YEAR. here is me with the band, plus performance artists anthony cleave & jess daly, in melbourne right before taking stage:
NOW, about the ARTWORK. over the last six months i've been working in secret with OVER THIRTY visual artist friends of mine (full list below) to create a massive explosion of song-inspired album art, in all different kinds of media. some people took the project really literally and made super lyrics-specific paintings....some people went way abstract. the end result is an EXPLOSION of incredible art. here is the list of artists who made things (alphabetically by first name): Amanda Palmer, Barnaby Whitfield, Blake Brasher, Cassandra Long, Conrad Keely (...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead), Cynthia von Buhler, David Mack, Desi, DJ Spooky (Paul Miller), Empire SNAFU Restoration Project, Hans Rickheit, Heide Hatry, Judith Clute, Kristin Hersh (Throwing Muses), Kyle Cassidy, Lee Barron, Meghan Howland, Michael Pope, Michael Zulli, Molly Crabapple, Neil Gaiman, Nicole Duennebier, Rick Berry, Robyn Hitchcock, Sarah Beetson, Shepard Fairey, Steven Bogart, Sylvia K, Tao Lin, Tony Albert, Vladimir Zimikov, Walter Sickert, and Zea Barker.
since i'm now without a giant label to front the gazillions of dollars that it always takes to manufacture and promote a record this big, i'm coming to you to gather funds so that i have the capital to put it out with a huge fucking bang. i think kickstarter and other crowdfunding platforms like this are the BEST way to put out music right now - no label, no rules, no fuss, no muss. just us, the music, and the art. i'm also making sure EVERY PRODUCT sold through this kickstarter is unique to this campaign, to reward all of you who KNEW ME WHEN and were willing to support me from Day One.
Amanda Palmer: The new RECORD, ART BOOK, and TOUR

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Four years to write an album?
If it takes more than twice as long as a song winds up being to write it, then you're doing it wrong.
bluest_one says:
Write me a 3 minute pop song then.
You have 6 minutes.
Get set …. GO!
IronLemur says:
Some people can crank out a book in a month. Some people need 20 years.
Specific historical and cultural references notwithstanding, is the quality of a work of creative labor diminished by how long it takes to make it?
Guest says:
Pet Sounds is better than Smile, but Smile is still pretty great.
Pirate Jenny says:
Well . . . she didn't say that's *all* she's been doing for the last four years (it isn't). As a longtime fan, I'm really looking forward to this!
Kurt Benbenek says:
It took Bob Dylan approximately ONE WEEK to record what some say is his album masterpiece, "Highway 61 Revisited" – think of what he could have done with a little Kickstarter cash : )
Hayden Petrie says:
"I think it was Jerome Kern who said that if it takes you more than 15 minutes to write a song, you've basically been jerking off"
Guest says:
When I learned that she was the living bride in Harvard Square in the 90s is when I figured out I'd been a huge fan since the beginning. I wasn't sure she'd top bagging NG, but this is monstrous for her…. She's a stepper-upper. and I can't wait to see how awesomely she nails this one.
Julie Gardner says:
Hmm. Not sure what to make of this. Now for starters AFP is brill. And Kickstarter is brill. BUT my beef is that Kickstarter should be for up and coming noobs, who don't have the luxury of "breaking with a label" or whose other halves aren't mega-successful (and brilliant BTW) authors. Or have I got my whole perception of Kickstarter wrong? In any case good luck AFP, but I'll be saving my hard-won and scarce pennies for those who haven't a hope in hell without my paltry contribution.
Guest says:
I think you conception is fine. Her and her backers have a different one. No biggie.
Michael Robinson says:
When anything gets big, people start to think it should be a certain way. The ones that have been around the longest usually worry about what it's becoming, while the newcomers glow over it's potential and unexplored avenues. Both thoughts are correct, but irrelevant in the end. It will grow where there's money to be made.
Foobar Incorpral says:
One of the options is to back and get a copy of the album for one dollar. That investment is better then buying a used cd, because she has been releasing stuff in ogg, flac, mp3, and aac for the last few years via bandcamp, and I bet this will also be hosted through them. That alone is better than buying the full digital download on Amazon or Itunes.
ocker3 says:
It's an easy, trusted and tested method of gathering money for a specific purpose, why should only up and coming artists use it? Using Kickstarter saves everyone a lot of time and hassle involved coming up with a new infrastructure, and who knows, people who go to contribute to this project may just run into Other projects (by small groups?) that they also want to support.
matthewfabb says:
An album, videos, art book and tour are all quite expensive. As she mentions in the video the budget if she stayed on the label would have been $200,000 to make it and $300,000 to distribute and promote it.
She doesn't have that kind of money so she needs to either convince a label to take her own and hope they see things her way or cut out the label and go directly to fans. Since Amanda Palmer's last album wasn't exactly a huge success, she might have had a hard time with that.
If a musician or band has a fanbase to cut out the middle men, but yet not enough to pay for it themselves, then why not use Kickstarter? I think it's great for anyone who wants to do something but doesn't have the funding to do it and needs to get it from fans.
I guess Amanda Palmer could have just set up sales for her new album on her website, but if there was a chance that she wasn't going to get funding for the whole thing, then Kickstarter is the safer approach for both her and her fans.
Michael Robinson says:
That was (fucking) adorable, and Who Killed Amanda Palmer is a great album (especially Guitar Hero, Leeds United, Astronaut….brb spotify…)
Maurice says:
I'm confused – is her middle name really "Fucking"?
Other than that oddity, who the fuck is she?
dragonfrog says:
She's an awesome and wickedly smart musician. Search youtube, you'll find some fine material of hers. She used to be part of/front the Dresden Dolls, you should be able to find some of their stuff that way too.
Guest says:
I've seen the Dresden Dolls bring half a room of middle aged artsy types to tears – wtih a drum solo. True Story.
Andy Simmons says:
I'm not sure I get it. I have funded a number of Kickstarter projects. Most of them have been physical products where the prototyping and testing had been done, but they needed financial backing to begin mass-manufacturing. That makes sense to me.
In this case… I'm not even really clear on what she's asking people to fund. The album — from what I gather from the Kickstarter video — seems to be done already.
So it really sounds like a Kickstarter for printing an art book that is tangentially related to the album, and funding promotion for her album. This doesn't really fit my (possibly narrow) definition of a "project".
xian says:
Did you not watch the same video I just did? She says she needs money for promotion, mixing, manufacturing and distribution – costs which the record label used to cover, but since she is independent now needs help with that.
EggyToast says:
She's using Kickstarter to basically get an advance. Note that the majority of the "goodies" you get are related to the album. So, rather than waiting until the album comes out and spending $5 on a CD, or $50 on the special limited edition doodads, you put your money up front. She then uses the advance to pay for studio and production fees.
It's an interesting take on Kickstarter and is creative in the sense that it's using Kickstarter as more of a shopping cart than an actual project, so I'll agree with you there. The project is done, and as far as I can tell whether this is funded or not, what she writes is going to happen. This seems to simply be an easier way of making the doodads exclusive and cool. Still, for most creative people, Kickstarter's approach to projects are basically the same as getting an advance, so it's not too far off.
inness says:
Now, I like Amanda Fucking Palmer as much as the next guy, unless that next guy either doesn't know who she is or happens to be Neil Gaiman, but I have to ask: Why, exactly, are we kicking in funds to the wife of Neil Goddamn Gaiman?
I mean, is this so she can feel financially independent of the most fucking lucre-rich speculative fiction author on the planet at the moment? If so, that seems rather facile and purposefully deny-ish of the married concept.
I don't know how the do things in England or on the faux-19th century music hall planets, but I do know that here in what I like to call 'The Real World' when folks (finger quotes) 'marry' they share and share alike.
Ergot, just to use that word 'cause it's a great word, if I want me an' my pals of fun-loving cabaret rats to engage in a project and I don't have the funds, BUT I SUSPECT MY WIFE'S A MULTI-MILLIONAIRE, I'm likely to ask for a subsidy based on past, present, and future marital 'relations'. And because we're a team.
Face it, I'm going to have to put out and put out big. Not that I'm already doing that, but I'll have to acknowledge some sort of tenuous physical and/or emotional attachment which leads me to impose upon my spouse rather than the General Public if said spouse is, again, A MULTI-MILLIONAIRE. Am I wrong in assuming this, BB fellows?-
Antinous / Moderator says:
She's pursuing a business strategy. Hitting your spouse up for cash is not a business strategy. At least not a very good one if you want to keep the spouse.
dragonfrog says:
Quite aside from your general point, I see amusing potential in your ergo/ergot substitution. Perhaps a kickstarter fund is in order?
Patrick McGorrill says:
I'm going to give her money because for only $1 she will give me a legal download of her album in return. That's a more than fair price for an album and since I know she's pretty great and I like her work I'll probably give her a couple dollars extra to make the price extra fair. Also, "kicking in funds" is a funny synonym for "buying."
Though, I'll admit I am a little overexcited to give her money for the more abstract reason that I am supporting a business model that eschews the inefficiency and overpricing of mainstream music distributors.
And you know what? You can laugh all you want at my idealism there. I just hope people follow her lead. -
db says:
Reasonably confident that AFP is a rather independent person and asking hubby for money is probably not high on her list of desirable activities. That's a rather limited view of the "married concept" you seem to have.
Besides, why shouldn't she get her audience to back her business, when they so obviously are delighted to do so? did you look at the list of "rewards"? there's some pretty great and unusual stuff that people are ponying up for. We trust her to live up to her promises.
ocker3 says:
I was crying by the end of the video, not sure what that means, other than I'm Really excited to see stuff like this happen. The internet may have not solved the world's problems, but it's starting to help us solve each other's problems.
Kerouac says:
Neil Gaiman says she awesome (really… like, in 300 tweets a day), and I believe Neil knows awesome when he weds it. I really haven't seen any other evidence, though.
leebenningfield says:
The keytar sold it for me.
I've never really bothered to listen to her music to figure out if I like it, but she has always seemed like a cool person to me, and this is a project I can get behind.
JoshP says:
*love* I'm feeling in the doghouse for not even listening to Evelyn&Evelyn and the Map of Tasmania yet… this year has been a blur. WKAP is my forge music.
If you're interested in the AFP primer get hold of the live show dls. "Automatic Joy" is the working title for that body of work, i guess?

The Cook
Jane's notes for this recipe:
Years ago I spotted a pretty punch bowl in an antique store, and fell in love with it. I told my hubby that I wanted it for Christmas. He said "Why, you don't ever make punch."
And I said" That's because I don't have a punch bowl!".
The rest is history, of course.
The punch bowl sat on a smaller bowl for a pedestel and had matching cups, with hooks to mount them on the side of the bowl.
I always made punch during the holidays because it was something special and non alcoholic for the kids, and of course for the adults you could add some "cheer".
And I said" That's because I don't have a punch bowl!".

Make your floating ring ahead of time, I use a bundt pan because it has a pretty deep design on it.
Thaw the frozen topping so you can combine it with other ingredients.
Combine all floating ring ingredients.
Place in a freezer, and when it starts to set, give a stir to distribute the fresh fruit through out the mold.
When you are ready for your guests put punch together. I literally wait until every one is there to keep the sparkle in the punch.
Put the frozen orange pineapple in your punch bowl, then add Half the cranberry juice, and half the ginger ale, stir to melt the juice.
Add the rest of liquids as you desire, don't fill up all the way to make room for floating ring.
Put some hot water in your sink. Add the frozen ring and place in it just to loosen it enough to get it out of your mold.
Place frozen ring on tiop of your punch, add the sherbert in the middle, and TA DAH! You got one fabulous looking punch.

You could add any other juices to this, and champagne would be a knock out.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Though Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel both grew up in Versailles, the two didn't meet until they began studying at the same college. Dunckel, who had studied at the Conservatoire in Paris, played in an alternative band named Orange. One of Dunckel's bandmates, Alex Gopher, introduced Godin into the lineup. While Gopher himself departed (later to record for the Solid label), Dunckel and Godin continued on, becoming Air by 1995. During 1996-1997, the duo released singles on Britain's Mo' Wax ("Modular") and the domestic Source label ("Casanova 70," "Le Soleil Est Prés de Moi"). Though Air often evinced the same '60s Continental charm as Dimitri from Paris -- due no doubt to the influence of Serge Gainsbourg -- the duo had little in common musically with other acts (Daft Punk) in the wave of French electronica lapping at the shores of Britain and America during 1997. That same year, Air remixed Depeche Mode and Neneh Cherry and joined French musique concrète popster Jean-Jacques Perrey for a track on the Source compilation Sourcelab, Vol. 3.
Signed to Virgin, Air released their debut album, Moon Safari, in early 1998. The singles "Sexy Boy" and "Kelly Watch the Stars" became moderate hits in Britain and earned airplay on MTV. Later that year, Godin and Dunckel mounted an ambitious tour throughout Europe and America, though they had originally decided to forego live appearances. Their early singles were collected in 1999 under the title Premiers Symptomes; the duo's soundtrack to the Sofia Coppola film The Virgin Suicides followed in early 2000. Air's second studio effort, 10,000 Hz Legend, appeared in spring 2001 with a subsequent tour of the U.S., but critics and fans alike didn't appreciate the darker, more experimental direction. They bridged the gap between the pop of Moon Safari and the experimentalism of 10,000 Hz Legend with their 2004 release Talkie Walkie.
Along with touring in support of that album, the pair remained busy making music in 2005 and 2006: they collaborated, along with Pulp's Jarvis Cocker and the Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon, on Charlotte Gainsbourg's album 5:55, and Dunckel released a solo album as Darkel. Cocker and Hannon also appeared on Air's fourth album, Pocket Symphony, which was released in early 2007. On one leg of the band's Pocket Symphony tour in 2008, the duo performed with just longtime collaborator and drummer Joey Waronker as their backing band. They kept this lineup for their next album, 2009's Love 2, which marked Air's first self-produced work and featured a more streamlined sound than some of their previous music. Dunckel and Godin went in a very different direction for their next album, which was based on an original score they created for the 1902 classic silent film Le Voyage Dans la Lune. The pair created the score in less than a month, working with collaborators such as Au Revoir Simone and Beach House's Victoria LeGrand, then expanded it into a full-length album that was released early in 2012. ~ John Bush, Rovi
Selected Discography
Track List: Le Voyage Dans La Lune
Track List: Surfing On A Rocket E.P.
Track List: Premiers Symptomes
Track List: Everybody Hertz
AIR's Moon Safari is one of the greatest CDs of all time. with the exception of Sexy Boy, every song can be played over and over without redundancy or obtrusivenes s . it belongs in the same category as Dark Side of the Moon, Kid A, and Entroducing. Talkie Walkie is almost there with a few misses, Virgin Suicides has wonderful tracks but lower replay value. All the other CDs, as the French would say, Comme ci comme ça. But Moon Safari alone is worth a better bio
Oh the French. Such amazing musicians. Among other things ;)
If I take it on face value it seems to say they suck and are equipment driven fluffers.

The beginning: Of something new. What is it? I don't know yet. The one thing I do know, is it's going to be what I WANT to do, not what I have to do. So what do I WANT to do? Oh geez. Let's make a small list:
- Knit
- Learn to crochet
- Scrapbook more often
- Make more cards
- Sew stuff.
- Take walks
- Take pictures
- Ride my bike
- Visit friends
- Travel
- Sleep in
- Make stuff from recycled materials
- Repurpose stuff
- Get a tan
- Spend more time with family
I do have a bucket list, but I'll share it later.
My plan for this blog is to just share what I feel like every day: crafts, gardening, cats, travels, whatever. I just want to share ME.
That being said, here's what's happening today.
My Roma tomatoes are happening! They are getting big and red and yummy. Yes, I picked a few early just to have the taste of a fresh tomato in my mouth. Yum! There's nothing like the taste of a homegrown tomato!
This is one of the shawls I'm knitting at the moment. The pattern is Piper's Journey and the yarn is from Quince and Co. Here is an unsolicited, honest review of their pattern and yarn: The pattern is well-written and I would recommend it for an advanced beginner. The yarn is so soft, so light and yummy! I love the feel of it as I knit and I can't wait to see the finished product in this color and yarn weight. Pics later.
Goober will not stay out of the Alyssum. He's squashing it!!

The calendar has turned and it is time to get ready for the coming season of fishing. There are several things that will present challenges as well as opportunity. In writing this blog for North American Fisherman, it will give me the opportunity to share my life on the road. I am a father, tournament fisherman, and journalist. It is my intention to tell the 365-days-a-year story as it unfolds. I will give up the details that turned the event in to a winner or a loser. Along the way, I will present fishing tips as well. These tips will include tackle, bait, and boating advice that I learned the hard way. That means it cost me dearly not to make the same mistakes twice! So sit back and enjoy the ride.

St. Patrick's Day 2012 we saw the first ever Stand Up Paddle Surfing heat in a St. Augustine Florida Eastern Surfing Association contest. Over the past several years SUP surfing has grown in popularity to the point where the surfing community has seen the need to include it in the regular amateur ESA surf contests. This is a huge step forward for our sport, and a building block for attracting more talented surfers to standing up and riding waves.
With a swell of 2.6 feet at 9 second intervals and light offshore winds, a low tide around 11 a.m. meant contestable conditions in the knee to waist high range and clean. Only 5 competitors signed up for the SUP division meant that only one heat was run at around 1 p.m. with incoming tide and an increasing onshore wind. Local paddlers Tony Lippi, Ed Toy and Tony Malara competed against J.D. Motes from Jacksonville, and our only female competitor Sami Gresham.
