Keighley Soroptimists support Silsden midwife Emily Hill
8:00am Tuesday 18th February 2014 in News
Keighley Soroptimists are supporting a Silsden midwife who is heading to Uganda to spend three months working at a community birth house.
Emily Hill will stay at Atiak – about 20 miles from the border with South Sudan – and will serve with Uganda's "traditional" midwives, most of whom are illiterate and have had little formal training.
And before she leaves next month, she aims to raise enough money to buy 30 bikes – at £40 each – to help the midwives travel between villages, and fund other supplies.
Soroptimist members presented her with a cheque for a bike.
"Emily is taking time out to do this work in Africa as she feels it will give her the opportunity to be able to strike a balance between making a difference and respecting the local culture and beliefs," said a spokesman for the group.
"She will work with local midwives whose knowledge has been passed on by female family members through the generations.
"We are delighted to be supporting her."

SLB Philip Wheeler and WLB Clint Session made major strides in 2009 in their second and third seasons, respectively. With Session now locked in at his natural position and Wheeler beginning the season a starter, even bigger things are expected from the Colts' underrated linebacker corps. A daily team observer tells PFW that Session's transition to the weak side last season helped slow the game down, allowing him to let plays come to him, which put him in the right position more frequently. A bit undersized, with a motor that is always running and big hitting ability, Session was called by our source as a "bigger Bob Sanders." Wheeler, who had a different coordinator each of his first two seasons in the league, improved greatly as the '09 season progressed — he became a full-time starter after Tyjuan Hagler went down with a season-ending biceps injury in Week Eight. Wheeler has to become more consistent and continue learning the playbook, but we hear the club believes he has the potential to become a big-time playmaker.

4-point checklist when buying an older apartment
If you are thinking of buying an older, secondhand apartment in Japan, these are some of the important factors that you need to consider:
[1] What are the building's common areas like?
When inspecting an apartment, it is important that you thoroughly check the building's common areas including the entrance, bicycle and car parking, hallways, garbage disposal room and rooftop (if possible).
If a building is well managed and maintained, it will be evident in the common areas. If, however, it is unclean or looking run down, it could be a sign that the building is not being property cared for.
[2] Does it meet the latest earthquake-resistant standards?
The latest earthquake-resistant construction standards (called 'shin-taishin) were introduced in 1981. Check if the building meets these standards, but beware that not all buildings completed in 1981/1982 are shin-taishin as the planning and construction may have begun several years before the new building code was introduced.
If you are looking at an older building, check if they have done an earthquake-resistant inspection or if they have plans to retrofit the building in the future.
[3] How are the ceilings and floors?
New apartments tend to have an air space between the floorboards and concrete slab below, and the ceiling and concrete slab above. This helps to retain warmth and acts as a noise barrier between floors. It also reduces the risk of troubles from water leaks and makes maintenance easier.
Older apartments, however, may not have this space between the flooring/ceiling and the concrete slab. Poor insulation can add to heating and cooling costs, and noise from neighbours can be amplified. There are often different ceilings heights with lower beams and it can be more difficult to attach light fixtures.
[4] Are the building management fees appropriate?
Naturally the price of the apartment is a deciding factor for many, but it is important to also consider the ongoing costs, such as the monthly building management and repair fund fund fees.These fees will be normally be higher for smaller buildings as there are fewer apartments to spread the cost over. They may also be higher for buildings with a lot of extra facilities, such as a pool, concierge service etc.
While lower monthly costs may help your household finances, is enough being set aside for future repairs and maintenance? Cheaper is not always better.
Find out if any major repairs are planned for the future, and how much is currently in the building's repair fund. Be prepared for the possibility that monthly fees rise in the future.
A well-maintained and well-managed building is essential to protecting the value of your asset.

Sqlite database schema
I'm trying to find out the database schema of a simple sqlite database (phonebook) that came with xampp. I've tried a couple of downloads but they say the database is corrupted. Since the little application works it seems unlikely it really is corrupt. I attach the database with the extension change to txt so it will upload. Can anyone help please?

Salaries too high
Town of Otsego residents, are you aware of what is going on with your town government?
At the Nov. 9 town board meeting the 2012 budget was passed. As you may know, the two sitting town justices did not run for reelection.
Prior to the election the town board took a close look at the salaries (paid by the local taxpayers) of the town justices and realized they were out of line with the rest of the county. Some board members talked about consolidating the town court with the village court to become more efficient.
The two town of Otsego justices were making $16,125 and $12,875 — the highest paid in the county – serving a population(including the village of Cooperstown) of 3,900 residents. In addition, the village has two judges – one is elected making $6,390 and the other is the appointed "acting" justice making $3,850. A total of four justices (with a payroll of just under $40,000) serving the 3,900 people of the town of Otsego.
By comparison, the town of Oneonta, with a population of 4,994 and the burden of a college student population, has only two judges with salaries of $15,096 and $11,424.
Clearly the town of Otsego has room for consolidation and payroll reduction in its judicial system. This would save the residents substantial tax dollars and make the system more efficient.
At the town board budget meeting, Gary Kuch stated that he and the other newly elected justice would not take the jobs for the salaries passed in the budget. In a clear move of politicalcronyism, supervisor Kiernan made a motion to increase the already inflated salaries for the justices.
Supervisor-elect Atwell seconded the motion. Councilmen Schallert, Michaels and Wenner thankfully defeated the motion.
The salaries that are in the 2012 budget are $7,500 per judge.
After the vote, supervisor Kiernan said that the new board could raise the salaries after Jan. 1 anyway, and the justices decided to take the jobs with the expectations of their salaries being increased at that point.
Please join me in holding this town board accountable and demand that it stop playing games with our money; stop the political cronyism and do what's right for the taxpayers and residents of the town of Otsego.

Is McLeod Bethel-Thompson Pushing Joe Webb in Camp? Paul Allen Thinks So.True Webb has had a couple memorable games as a relief pitcher, and he did have that one nice start against the Eagles, but hes also had other games where hes been dismal. When Webb plays well, its mostly coming in during the game when teams arent ready for his speed and strength. Give a team the Bears for example a chance to prepare for him? Joe Webb has mostly been a lousy QB.
So if you take Webbs spotty record as a player into account, and add in the fact that hes not been overly impressive in camp? Maybe we shouldnt be so sure about Webbs status on the roster. What if Bethel-Thompson continues having good practices and mixes in a couple solid preseason performances? And Webb keeps stinking it up? Its not out of the question that Webb could be bumped down the depth chart.
And if Webb gets bumped down from #2, really, what would be the reason for keeping him on the roster at all? Rosenfels at least has the calming influence and mentor thing going for him. Yes, I know some people love the idea of Webb as a multi-position weapon a la Antwaan Randle El, but honestly, does anyone think thats ever going to come to fruition? The Blazer package is dead and buried. Webb is either a QB or hes nothing. The way things are going, it looks like Webbs career is leaning toward nothing. At least according to Paul Allen.

I would not be surprised to see Webb get cut. The Vikings made their decision when they drafted Ponder.
When has there ever been a real QB competition ?
Most teams pay lip service to competition but realize it is usually counterproductive at the QB position.
I think what he did last season was pretty damn good, I would hate to see him get cut. Obviously Ponder is the better QB but I think he has his use for the team. Maybe wildcat QB orso, ...
PS.: I can't remember what game it was last season but at some point Webb broke 3 tackels in a row with just a couple of seconds on the clock. It was pretty impresive even tho he didn't complete it, he showed me that he isn't done for.
I mean... I was interested in keeping McLeod Bethel-Thompson around as a project because I like his potential, but I never thought he would impress Paul Allen this much. Regardless, it's very nice to hear, except the part that Webb is not impressive of course.
If MBT (can I call him that?) has a good preseason game, I'm inclined to keep him and let Sage Rosenfels go (poor guy, I didn't like to see him the Vikings let him go last year). At least MBT is young and has potentials to be much better. Rosenfels is not.
Cutting Webb would be a very sad thing to me. When the decision was made to go to Ponder, it should have been completed by moving Webb to WR. Just sayin'...
Webb can play in the NFL...and, will, IMO, albeit not at QB.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent
As a matter of fact, I do know
If Bethel-Thompson stays on the roster, Sage Rosenfels will be the one who get cut, not Joe Webb. I'm 99 % certain of that.
I like Sage Rosenfels, but we have to think forward. I know the players don't want to say it, but we are rebuilding.
I think Sage would go before Webb, though I'm not at camp to see what's happening.
Sage is 34 years old and hasn't completed a pass since 2008, and has switched teams 4 times in 4 seasons. I really don't see any upside.
Webb is 25, going into a his 3rd NFL season with the Vikings.
Also Webb more closely matches Ponders skill set(quick feet and athletic), so more of the game plan could stay in place in the event Ponder goes out.

Where are the posters who maintain that Webb was clearly "the better football player is of the two" and he "outplayed Ponder last year".
Just kidding around.
Regarding that story, this is the first I have heard about Webb having a "bad" camp as the article put it. Granted, I don't get to listen to PA as much while at work. I have heard him be pretty high on Bethel-Thompson though.
I agree with the others here - if anyone goes it will be Sage. Yes, he's the "veteran" presence, but I think that Webb makes for a better backup QB than Sage does - although I wouldn't want to see either one start any significant number of games.Zeus wrote:

Daily Norseman - For Minnesota Vikings Fans and read their camp recaps. They do a good job and post a product that lists all the articles/vids/tweets etc that are out there. In them they actually track completions/attempts and Joe has been doing pretty bad.Many many thanks to my talented friend Jos for the new Sig.

Solar screens, also called solar shades, are a type of roller window shade generally made from a synthetic mesh fabric, like a screen. Solar window shades come in different levels of opaqueness, or openness, depending on how much light control you desire - the higher the percentage of openness of the solar shade, the more light the shade lets in. Solar screens are an excellent option for windows with a view. Solar screens reduce glare and improve energy efficiency by reducing solar heat gain and blocking harmful UV rays.

NEW HAVEN—Although details about the Annie Le killing remains in a sealed arrest affidavit, we learned much more about the 24 year old Yale graduate student as a person at a memorial service for her.
Classmates, teachers, and even people who had never met Le filed into Yale's historic "Battel Chapel."
At the service, professors talked about Le's bright professional future in the sciences, while her advisor and a classmate touched on lighter things, such as Le's love of fashion and fried food.
"I didn't know she liked Popeye's, I like Popeye's too, and she has a body where she doesn't eat Popeye's, so that's something that stood out," well-wisher Michael Howard pointed out.
Yale employee Dottie Cameron laughed, "Oh, those high heels clattering around, that's a riot, when you run into someone that can wear high heels in a lab, that's an accomplishment."
Next Tuesday, a judge will consider unsealing the arrest affidavit in Le's case.
Her accused killer, Raymond Clark, remains behind bars on $3 million bond.

A:If Snowshoe seems almost identical to a high-end resort out West, only smaller, there's good reason: it's owned by Intrawest, which also operates Steamboat and Winter Park, among others. You'll find all of the amenities—from a quaint-but-not-over-the-top central resort village to immaculately groomed slopes buried beneath thick carpets of snow. Even during dry winters the skiing is still top-notch, as long as there hasn't been a big melt and freeze, due to the resort's expansive snowmaking equipment. The climate at the base (3,300 feet) is surprisingly frigid and more comparable to New Hampshire than what you might think for a Southern state. The main drawback is the size. Snowshoe's vertical drop is 1,500 feet, and its 57 trails, served by 14 lifts, can get crowded on weekends with college students from western Virginia and escapees from Washington, D.C.

Updated May 12, 2011 at 5:00 PM CST: Jasper County commissioners today toured the county jail to see problems that have the sheriff sending prisoners to other facilities, overcrowding and mechanical failures.
The lieutenant who runs the jail and maintenance crews pointed out some serious flaws during the tour that indicate prisoners are not completely secure.
In the jail tower, where deputies watch six pods of inmates, most controls panels indicate cell doors that are not secure.
Deputies shared how a control room boards keys sometimes open more than one door at the same time.
The tour took commissioners to showers in pods where mold is a problem on steels doors.
A trip to the roof pointed out soft spots and plumbing works on the second floor can't be fixed without standing on pipes. Water heaters are located over the computerized locking systems and leaks have disabled it in the past. And the simplex security system is so outdated there's no service contract.
Presiding commissioner John Bartosh says they have heard some concerns before and it is time to act.
"If we can fix everything I think that would be a lot cheaper than building a new jail," Bartosh says. "If we can get rid of a bunch of people that will help also. We have to look at next budget time - get some money in here to fix the jail."
Bartosh is hoping a bill passes in the Missouri legislature approving the use of ankle bracelets to get inmates out of jail as they await court dates. Inmates would be charged for the electronic monitoring and if they couldn't pay the state would cover part of the cost under the bill. But that has yet to be approved.
And the sheriff says it takes local judges to implement that, which wouldn't solve the immediate overcrowding problem.
Updated Thursday May 12, 2011 at 12:45 PM CST: After much discussion and argument about inmate overcrowding in Jasper County, commissioners toured the jail today.
Sheriff Archie Dunn has been shipping Jasper County inmates to other area jails to ease the burden. But commissioners told the sheriff they will not be responsible for costs associated with housing prisoners at other facilities.
Today commissioners took a look at conditions inside the jail, conditions which Sheriff Dunn says are dangerous and potentially harmful.
Updated April 27, 2011 at 10:00 PM CST: The Jasper County Commission says it can't afford the sheriff's department's transportation of inmates to other jails.
Jasper County presiding commissioner John Bartosh says if the sheriff were to transfer the 79 county inmates to other counties, it would cost $100,000 monthly.
"Most of the facilities around here are in the same boat we are, but we didn't budget for it," says Bartosh. "He didn't budget for it. The money is not there for it."
In a letter to the commission Sheriff Archie Dunn says there are huge safety issues at the jail including "most cell doors can be easily defeated (opened) by inmates, and as a result of overcrowding, there are more instances of fights and disagreements among the inmates."
Bartosh says the problems with the locks could have been fixed years ago, when the jail maintenance fund was created.
"The reason they did it was for the locks and the doors," Bartosh says. "So that's been over five years ago because they did that before my time and they still haven't been fixed."
Sheriff Dunn's letter says the detention center was designed to house a maximum of 153 inmates, but the current inmate count is more than 230.
"The overcrowding that exists in the detention center has reached a point where I believe I can no longer tolerate the gross overcrowding of my jail," the sheriff's letter says. "To do so would be a violation of my duty."
Commissioners say if Dunn continues to transport prisoners to other counties, Missouri law indicates it is possible he may be personally be responsible for the cost.
Bartosh says there are possibilities in the future, including a new jail.
"We've got to look at ways we can fix it now," Bartosh says. "We need to start fixing this, you know, like in the next few weeks and get some of these people out of this jail and work on other options."
Commissioners are planning to meet with Jasper County judges and Sheriff Dunn soon to resolve the issue.
Updated April 27, 2011 at 5:30 PM CST: Jasper County commissioners have a warning for the sheriff: stop transferring county prisoners to other jails or you might have to pick up the tab.
Sheriff Archie Dunn had complained to the commission that the county's detention center is over capacity and says he's made arrangements to transfer inmates to facilities out of the county.
But in a letter to the sheriff commissioners say the county will not be bound by any agreement like that and says taxpayer money will not be used to pick up the expense - roughly $100,000 per month.
The letter goes on to say: "Be advised that Missouri law indicates that if you proceed with this initiative it is quite possible that you personally may be responsible for the cost."
Posted April 26, 2011 at 4:25 PM CST: Jasper County Sheriff Archie Dunn spoke to county commissioners today about jail overcrowding and told them he is violating his duty if he allows the situation to continue.
Dunn says the county's detention center has been over capacity for most of the last three years.
He explained the issues that go along with jail overcrowding and told commissioners they were also responsible for the well being of the prisoners.
Dunn told commissioners he has made arrangements to transfer inmates out of the county again at a cost of $40 to $50 per day.
He said he would like for commissioners to create a committee to help him and the county solve the overcrowding issue.
Commissioners did not give the sheriff an answer about his request but have said they want to work with the sheriff to fix the problems.
Posted April 19, 2011 at 6:33 PM CST: The Jasper County commission looks for solutions to jail overcrowding. Commissioners discussed the issue today after the sheriff sent prisoners to other jails over the weekend.
County commissioners talked about a proposed state law that would allow the use of ankle bracelet monitoring for those awaiting trial.
Sheriff Archie Dunn says there are costs involved in that just as in housing the prisoners. He says the jail has been above capacity for months.
The pod holding female inmates has 26 beds but 39 prisoners. The sheriff says the numbers are pushing up costs.
"Uniforms, blankets, foods, medical, everything has gone up extremely high because we're 60 to 70 inmates over what we should have in that facility," says Sheriff Dunn. "That facility is not built to handle that many inmates. I've tried to discuss this with people before and they weren't interested. I guess now tall of a sudden they're interested now."
Jail overcrowding is an issue statewide.

A: Poured a hazy straw yellow with a fingers worth of head that settles to a ring with no lacing to speak of.
A: I'm getting a sweet smell, with a touch of citrus and some floral notes as well.
T: Start out just kind of wet at first, then mid palette there is a slight tartness.... Maybe lemon. Then a slight bitterness at the finish.
M: Very light bodied... Crisp and wet.. Just quenches the thrist.
D: Pretty plain, nothing really remarkable here. The low ABV makes this a pretty good session beer but there is not much to session here.

On tap at churchkey, beer is yellow and hazy with a wispy white head and low carbonation, no lacing left behind.
Aroma has a sulfury bite to it and some sweetness, mild pilsner malt.
Beer is thin and watery but sweet up front with an odd bitterness and a strong midpalate region, overall its pretty good but not my favorite pilsner, filtered or otherwise. Just an average beer. I doubt I would have it again.

Reviewed from notes.
Pours a cloudy light yellow with a large white head that settles down and leaves quite a bit of lace behind. Nose is fairly plain, with some lemon, light stone fruit, and a bit of grain. Taste is lightly sweet with some grass and grain plus a bit of citrus. Light body with good carbonation. A really nice easy-drinking beer with subtle flavors.

3.55/5 rDev -2.5%
Poured a clearish, light yellow with good carbonation that led to a quickly receeding billowy head. Had a nice floral aroma with minor malt sweetness tucked in. A light-bodied and smooth beer but did have some crispness on the end. Floral, grassy hoppy notes with hints of dark fruits and a minor hint of sweetness. What it lacks in complexity it makes up for in an easy-going-down-the-hatch beer that quenches thirst.

Appearance: Clear and straw like with a thin head . Little bit of foam after it receded on top. Looks fine so far.
Aroma: Light aroma, kind of a sweet smell comes from it, maybe some buttery scents as well? The sweet aroma reminds me of honey for some reason. Maybe its just me.
Taste: Kind of fruity, with some bitterness as well. I really can't describe it that well. There is also some tartness which I enjoyed. This is the first time I've had this type of beer.
Mouthfeel: Light bodied...and the tartness gives a nice kick to it. Goes down well.
Drinkability: Pretty good for a hot day, and pretty easy to drink a couple of. Overall, good beer..I'll be trying more of this style now.

500ml bottle into Scandanavian mug.
Cloudy vivid golden hue with a thin white head that stays in place.
Very light aroma, with only a touch of citrusy fruit coming through.
Smooth and bready grains with a touch of lemony flavor. A little bit of tartness. Light bodied with a medium amont of carbonation, maybe a little acerbic on the tongue. The finish is clean.
This is my first taste of the style, but it's an enjoyable beer. I can imagine this one coming in handy on a warm German day in a Biergarten. Recommended.

This kellerbier had a hazy lemon-yellow body with a a pure white (thin) head. The nose gave the impression of bitter wheat flavors, but the flavor was pleasantly floral and slightly tart, with mildly pepper finish.
It is certainly a crisp, dry beverage with a smooth, light texture and a beautiful color. I had it side-by-side with the St. Michaelsberg which was a darker amber, a clearer beer overall, with a real tang to it.
Eggenberg Naturtrüb is one I would choose again!

Schloss Eggenberg Naturtrüb pours up tall & lively with a very foamy, long lasting white head that nicely caps the slightly hazy pale golden yellow body. The lightly bready aroma has a nice graininess to it with some toasty (Melba toast), light dextrin maltiness and mild herbal (catty), earthy, peppery spiciness from the noble Saaz hops that inhances the finish. Very clean, no fruitiness or diacetyl, nil-low DMS. The refreshing flavor starts off lightly malty with a moderately balanced bitterness that carries well into the zesty, off-dry, slightly yeasty finish. Medium-light bodied with ample carbonation. This is one easy drinking Zwickelbier from one of the world's great lager breweries. I'd certainly love to have a fresh one from the source someday. Try pairing some traditional Kasnocken (cheese dumplings) or your favorite freshwater fish (black bass, steelhead trout, sockeye salmon, etc... with some Salzburger Nockerln (a meringue-like dish) for dessert.

hazy straw/golden with a white head that hung out well and left some lace. nose was earthy, grainy, pilsner malty, breadish. taste was a fairly well balanced peppery farm fresh bread with a touch of sweetness (caramel?)... medium body went down creamier than expected for a pilsner with just a faint hit of dry in the finish. i really enjoyed this. not over the top, but a very friendly and comforting beer. more please...

I poured this beer into my tumbler at 50 degrees. The beer was lightly cloudy and a yellow color of a regular domestic beer. The head was big and white and fluffy with fine bubbles. Head lasted just okay and lacing was good. The smell was breadt/yeasty as was the taste. The beer tasted fresh and was a refreshing brew that would be a great summertime beverage. I liked it and would buy again.

Pale, yellow, hazy gold with a dense, rocky head. Aroma of pilsner malts, fresh dough, sulfur, and an earthiness redolent of grain fields. Chewy white crusty bread flavor with the slight hint of caramelized malt. Good soft body, mellow carbonation, and a finish just barely dry enough to distinguish this as a Pils rather than a Helles. This is an enjoyable beer, but maybe not a very memorable one, and yes, I would still have another. In fact, I bought three, and I look forward to having the other two.

Big half-liter bottle served in a big German mug. It pours a very active pale gold, with a thick, three-finger head that imparts nice lacing - looks kinda like a hefe or wit. However, both the aroma and taste are essentially flavorless, with maybe some light malts and a touch of hops. The body is light, with low to medium carbonation and it leaves almost no finish. Average at best - a definite letdown.

Pours a fairly hazy yellow with a creamy, well-retained bone-white head. Light grain aroma. The mellow palate features a slightly buttery grain malt character and only the faintest hop bite (more like a nip, really). There is also a mild yeast touch (especially if you swirl the bottle before you pour it into a glass).
Very mild, not a whole lot of flavor, but whats there is pretty tasty and very drinkable.

The beer poured crystal clear pale straw from outward appearances, but when held to the light the particulates can be seen in suspension. The head was white and lasting to lace the glass.
The aroma was malty and buttery with a slight sourness present.
The flavor was slightly sour with decent bittering and malt presence. The flavor is also fruity.
The finish was dry with a drying aftertaste that removes most of the moisture from your palate. The body was medium light.

Turbid pale golden hue. Dense, mountainous pitted porcelain white head leaves frothy lace. Mild bready pilsner malt accompanied by grassy, pepper tinged Saaz hop hints. Tame and prosaic aromawise. Snap of hop bitterness upfront leads into a combination of lightly soured cracker and dry hay. Understated citric notes of lemon. Nothing noteable in malt character beyond base pilsner malt sweetness. Well attenuated and nearly bone dry. Suspended yeast adds token creaminess in mouthfeel as well as nutty and slightly musty hints. Becomes slighty husky and chalky as it warms and not any more complex. Finishes dry, with notes of day old cut grass and white bread. A simple, harmless brew that grew on my palate. Quite refreshing, albeit prosaic. Best before 1/2004. I can imagine this being more vibrant on tap or at the source.

By the time 'Who Do We Think We Are' was released, Ritchie Blackmore's reputation for being, shall we say, difficult was certainly known by anyone with slightly more than a casual interest in Deep Purple. If one can imagine the stress of trying to put out an album, to say nothing of a good one, under those circumstances, it makes the success of this album all the more remarkable. Contrary to the critics, fans embraced this as another fine effort and its continued popularity speaks for itself. If it lacked the originality of their previous three studio albums (admittedly it falls short in that regard), it still rocked, and effectively disguised whatever discontent the naysayers read into it. Honestly, I play this album as often as I do any other DP Mark II album and easily enjoy it just as much. Reading so-called professional reviews, one gets the feeling that hating a band takes on a life of its own at some point. Only a critic could explain why.

This album from the Mark II version of Deep Purple is best known for the huge hit "Woman From Tokyo" that starts out the disc. When people talk about the classic Deep Purple albums usually this is not one of them that gets mentioned, but I think it is underrated. The album would prove to be the last for the mark II lineup as tensions were high at the time of its recording. Every song here is good "Mary Long", "Super Trouper", "Smooth Dancer", "Rat Bat Blue", "Place In Line" and "Our Lady" are all classic purple. The whole band is in fine form instrumentally and Gillan's voice at its peak. I have had a love hate relationship with many of Deep Purple's albums over the years, but this one is one of their best in my opinion.
THE BAND: Ian Gillan (vocals, harmonica), Ritchie Blackmore (guitars), Roger Glover (bass), Jon Lord (piano, organ, keyboards), Ian Paice (drums & percussion).
THE DISC: (1973) Originally 7 songs clocking in at approximately 34 minutes. This digitally remastered 2002 release contains 7 bonus tracks making the total listen just over 72 minutes. Included with the disc is a 24-page booklet containing song titles/credits/times (no song lyrics), numerous band photos, and 16 pages of band insight from the time of this recording (circa 1972-73) from writer Simon Robinson and bassist Roger Glover. All songs written by Deep Purple. Recorded by the Rolling Stones Mobile unit in Rome and Frankfurt, between July and October 1972. Originally on the EMI / Warner Bros Records label. This reissue is on Rhino / Warner Bros.
COMMENTS: For me, this album was bitter sweet. Deep Purple is/was one of my all-time favorite rock bands… ever. This would be the last time during those magical 1970's that the best line-up DP had would record together. Deep Purple was riding high from "Machine Head" and their best live recording "Made In Japan" (both released in 1972). They were easily the top selling rock act of 1973. Yet, the band was in complete turmoil. Among the factors – Blackmore and Gillan (in a power struggle) were not speaking to each other; pressure to record a worthy follow-up to "Machine Head" was proving to be a difficult task; on the road constantly – five U.S. tours in one year (as well as Europe and Japan); and Blackmore getting sick and the band having to make up cancelled tour dates. As the liner notes read – the album was "musically abrasive and lyrically bitter". Three months after the release of "Who Do We Think We Are", Gillan and Glover resigned… and the album never really saw the light of day on the road in concert. The album garnered one bonafied hit, "Woman From Tokyo". Here, you get the primary version as well as a '99 remix lasting almost 50 seconds longer than the original. On the remix version, Gillan's vocals are slightly different in spots, as is Blackmore's guitar solo. The other '99 remixes are cool as well, "Rat Bat Blue" and "Our Lady" – both deserving tracks. "Who Do We Think We Are" had several classic deep album cuts, including "Mary Long", the spacey "Super Trooper", the fast paced "Smooth Dancer", and the band's other favorite tune from the album "Rat Bat Blue". Only "Our Lady" seems oddly out of place here – a nice ballad concentrating more on the melody and lyrics (and no Blackmore or Lord solos). Gems from the vault – the song "Painted Horse" was a studio outtake – Gillan wanted it here on the album, but it was ultimately scrapped by Blackmore – simply a great tune… cool melody, smooth vocals, Gillan's harmonica fits nicely with Blackmore's rhythm guitar. And, "First Day Jam" is exactly what it says it is… eleven minutes of DP doing what they did best (the highlight being Jon Lord's keyboard playing). "Who Do We Think We Are" might not be a 5-star album based on the music alone (like "Machine Head" or "Burn" might be), but the remastered sound, the amazing bonus tracks, and the extensive liner notes all together make this Rhino reissue a must have Deep Purple disc (5 stars).
By the time this recorded was being recorded, this great band was coming apart at the seems. With Ritchie Blackmore & Ian Gillan not on speaking terms, Roger Glover, about to be shown the door and Jon Lord & Ian Paice trapped right in the center of all of this, tensions ran high as Deep Purple was imploding from it's very center.
It was the biggest year of the band's history {1972} and Machine Head was their most popular record. "Smoke On The Water" was riding high world-wide as the biggest single from the group. Now it was July, and Deep Purple were in the recording studio once more, this time in Rome to begin working on the follow-up to: "Machine Head". Tired from way too much touring, Ritchie had begun voicing negative opinions about Ian Gillan's vocal performance. After almost a month in Rome, only Two Tracks stood completed: "Painted Horse" and "Woman from Tokyo". It was the Begining of the end for this version of the purple monster.
After the famous shows in Tokyo and Osaka in August 72, Ian Gillan, stated in a letter to Deep Purple's Management of his intentions to quit the band. After a long tour of The UK in September, the following month, the band flew to Frankfurt to complete the recording of the new album. For a group, under this much strain, the results should have been dire and depressing, instead for some of us, this would be the finest studio release by Purple Mk.2.
"Woman From Tokyo", captures the spirit of the August 1972 Japan Shows in fine fashion {and it all must have been a vision, because it was recorded BEFORE those shows!}."Mary Long", is straight-up rock and transfered well to the Deep Purple concert stage. "Smooth Dancer", is famous because of Ian's lyric references to Ritchie that just begin to describe the tensions between the two of them.
Side Two for me was the prize, as it contained my two favorite Purple tracks: "Rat Bat Blue" & "Place In Line". The first is one of DP's best firery rockers and the fine blues of: "Place In Line" is a keeper with Ian's gruff vocals….both are under-regarded classics.
As for the bonus cuts, some Remixes are offered: "Rat Bat Blue","Woman from Tokyo","Our Lady". "Painted Horse" is now here where it belongs at last. "First Day Jam" features, Jon Lord, and this is just about as loose as these guys have ever been on record.
Now you can purchase this gem, re-mastered and expanded {72 Minutes}. The best one just got a whole lot better!
Four Stars !!!
Released in March of 1973 this album was the last of the classic original Mark II lineup (until the mid-eighties) which included Ian Gillian, Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord, Roger Glover and Ian Paice. The album produced one hit in "Woman From Tokyo" but the album was full of great songs including "Rat Bat Blue", "Smooth Dancer", and "Mary Long", etc. During the recording of "Who Do We Think We Are" there were apparently "intense personal differences" that led to both Gillian and Glover leaving the band. This special remastered version includes seven never before released remixes, outtakes, etc. The sound quality of this remastered cd is excellent and superior to the earlier versions of this cd. There is also a 23 page booklet included which has some rare pictures of the band as well as information on the making of the album. A true classic album that represents one of rocks most talented and loudest bands. Highly recommended!

Tendrara Vichy Camp
The small town of Tendrara is the site of a Vichy era labor camp, built along the railroad stretching from Oran, Algeria, south through Morocco's eastern border. The railroad was largely built by the labor of Vichy prisoners, sent to camps like this one. It is the best-preserved Vichy camp along Morocco's eastern border with Algeria, perhaps in the country.

The earliest fossil of the homo sapiens family (human beings) was found in Ethiopia, dating back more than 200,000 years. Compared to this length of time, even the "ancient Sumerians" from 6000 B.C. are drooling toddlers.
Let's mention a few African heroes you may have heard of, for inspiration in the face of the continued economic inequality and violence which plague Africa today: Nelson Mandela, first democratically elected President of South Africa, who fought against apartheid and served 27 years in prison while advocating freedom and peace. Haile Salassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, who resisted Mussolini and the fascist Italian invasion of WWII, and who is worshipped as an incarnation of God by the Rastafari movement. Kwame Nkrumah, first Prime Minister of Ghana, advocate of uniting Africa in Pan-Africanism. Fela Kuti, inventor of Afrobeat music, who declared his home to be an independent state, ran for president of Nigeria, and to whose funeral ONE MILLION PEOPLE came to pay their respects.
In June 2001 the African Union was formed, consisting of 53 African States organized, like in the EU, around common economic and political development.
