*Includes Download Code Redeemable From The Label* 'Stateless' is Alex Zhang Hungtai aka Dirty Beaches' sweeping, beat-less swan-song under this guise. Where his previous album wallowed in the darkest recesses of post-punk pop composition, this one is still super heavy-hearted, but almost weightlessly so. It was recorded by David Lynch collaborator Dean Hurley and features viola from italian composer Vittorio Demarin meshed with Hungtai's synth and saxophone in four widescreen, airborne compositions laced with an aching sense of melancholia. If we were to read into the music, the sleeve art an… Read more
"Stills Lit Through offers the first comprehensive body of work from musician and visual artist Tallesen. Hailing from the Hudson Valley of New York, Tallesen – born Cayman Johnson - describes Stills as a response to the "continuous flexibility of the physical setting by the additive of sound." A reference to his joyful erasure of the distinction between music and experience. The twelve songs of Stills Lit Through conjure an eidolon of melodies painted with watercolor brushstrokes both calm ("Glenticast") and frenetic ("Emmel"). To our ears, this closely characterizes Johnson's work as a v… Read more
"'The Hum' comes eighteen months after the band's debut album 'Pearl Mystic', a record that steadily went on to become one of 2013's most critically beloved releases. Even more ferocious and uncompromising than its predecessor and yet more melodic and focused than the band have ever recorded, 'The Hum' further cements the band's status as a vital force in British independent music."
Keiji, Ambarchi and O'Malley reprise their fearsome Nazoranai trio with a heavyweight 2nd album accentuating their improvised, hard rock foundations. Recorded by Chris Fullard at CCSO, Birmingham 9th July 2013, 'The Most Painful Time Happens Only Once Has It Arrived Already?' barrels right into the mouth of hell from the off. Powered by Ambarchi's thunderous, roiling battery, the cavernous 19-minute space of 'You Should Look Closely Those Shattered Spells Never Attaining Embodiment as Prayer They Are Born Here Again' is deeply infected with sire… Read more
**Complex electronica with hints of Burial, Kuedo, Andy Stott** "Young producer Brogan Bentley returns with his debut LP, The Snake. Its 12 compositions writhe, slink, and crawl through the dark and hazy fog-scape of Bentley's native San Francisco in the Year of the Snake. According to the producer, "The Snake is a sonic documentation of coming into new skin, living in it and shedding it.""
LA's 18+ land the icy heat of debut album 'Trust' on Rob Booth's Houndstooth label. Pushing a coolly disaffected blend of '90s trip hop and screwed pop gloom since their trio of self-released mixtapes, they arrive at 'Trust' as a fully fledged and distinctive unit with an eviscerated sound palette and design perfused by proper slacker vocals. Production is handled by a cast including West Coaster Butchy Fuego, plus Mura Masa, Heavy Feelingz and Morbidly-o-Beats, all hitting a blue vein of blown-out trap and minimal, gothic atmospheres sweeping us somewhere between Tri Angle's early roster of AlunaGeorge, Holy Other, Evian Christ, and more recent Tricky works.

The 4th set in Hyperdub's 10th anniversary series features an exclusive Burial track among 28 cuts exploring the label's deep, rude and rugged dancefloor side. It's stuffed with killer new gear, not least Burial's blue roller 'Lambeth' but also nuff VIPs and remixes from core roster and friends of the fam. Highlights run from Cooly G's Dub Organiser era swinger 'Him da Biz' thru the lean, mean techno of Kode 9's 'Oh' ace and the minimalist slink of Ossie & PHRH's 'Ugly Observation', to a bubbling bambounou remix of Jessy Lanza's 'Fxxk Diamond' and a jazz re-fry of Matyn's 'Mega Drive Gneeration'… Read more
The mercurial Mr. Blunt keeps everyone guessing with the 'Black Metal' follow-up to his widely acclaimed LP, 'The Redeemer' (2013). Let's get it out of the way: it's not black metal, in the cold, Northerly sense, at least. Musically, its palette actually bears more resemblance to early Factory or Rough Trade records by The Durutti Column or Scritti Politti - or even Serge Gainsbourg - than anything remotely connected to Bathory or Burzum. And taken in light of his oeuvre, both with Hype Williams and solo, it's actually a canny appropriation of the term, subverting pre-conceived and connoted id… Read more
**Gatefold slipcase** Pev, Kowton, and Asusu collect all 12 remixes of their Livity Sound cache from like-minded and compatible producers. It's a smart showcase of their combined tastes, tasking the likes of Mix Mup & Kassem Mosse to rework Kowton's 'More Games' as a squashed, spacey bogle beside a pair of wrecked, kinky remixes of Asusu's 'Velez' from A Made Up Sound, and a pair of steaming reworks for Kowton & Pev from Surgeon and Pangaea. There's also a slamming MMM remix of Pev & Asusu's 'Surge', a high-pressure Tessela take on Pev's 'Aztec Chant', and much more from Ilian Tapes Stenn… Read more
Thirteen years since his debut LP, (Chris) 'Clark' strips back his sound to pure techno muscle and brainy arrangements on his 7th album. Presenting his sound as sculpture, thirteen tracks model dynamic electronic spaces flush with intricate, acrobatic arpeggios and endless reverbs urging his melodic flourishes into vaulted harmonies. Consumed as an album rather than individual cuts, it oscillates back and forth from dramatic moments and 'floor-ready slam, at best in the knackered trance chug of 'Winter Linn', the Visionist-like vocaloids flitting around 'Snowbird', and the swarming Black Midi-style arpeggios of 'Beacon'.
Steve Hauschildt and BNJMN select a wide range of post rock, ambient and abstracted techno aces for the latest Air Texture volume. Former Emeralds meber Hauschildt bookends tracks by Le Révélateur, Pulse Emitter, Dino Spillutini, and Jonathan Fitoussi on disc 1 with two of his own, lush compositions, 'Watertowers' and 'Pismo'; BNJMN follows suit with a canny collection of mutant, morphing electronics at best in Legowelt's eerie 'Vanished In Tromso', the rustling ambience of Best Available Technology's 'Sectomy', and a really gorgeous meditation called 'Rumori Circostanti di Melody Pops & Clic & Silenzio' by Hieroglyphic Being.
**First new album in three years by Ronald Lippok and Bernd Jestram** ""Adrift" contains 13 songs, four of which are instrumentals. The opening track, "The Tape", is an introduction to the sonic landscape of the album. Drum 'n' Bass in slow motion: A recurring hissing sound meets an acoustic bass and associative percussion. Tarwater roguishly refer to the acoustic bass as their "weapon of choice" and are fascinated by its elastic, vague expressiveness. The drumkit in the traditional rock format is conspicuous in its absence. Tarwater, who particularly in the British music press are happily and quite f… Read more
"'Block Boundaries' is the new album from minimalist composer Ryan Teague building on his previous releases for Type, Sonic Pieces and current label Village Green. Inspired by the theme of Psychogeography, the record fuses acoustic instrumentation with electronic and processed material, taking the listener on a hallucinogenic Ballardian journey through from the thrumming urban activity of New York, Amsterdam and London. Brooding opener "Site & Situation" sets the tone with hypnotic guitar and mallet chimes, emotive cello swells and surging bass synth, 'Last Known Position' comes on like a… Read more
**Bittersweet, Latinate pop laced with lustrous electronics and fragile vocals** "Helado Negro, aka Roberto Lange, recorded Double Youth, his fourth LP, in his home studio with a computer, his voice, and telepathic input from a poster he found buried in a closet in his childhood home. Helado Negro owes something to his contemporaries (Chancha Via Circuito, Matias Aguayo, Juana Molina, Bear in Heaven, Prefuse 73, and School of Seven Bells) but Double Youth is more a spiritual long-lost cousin to the great masters of funk, like Parliament, Prince, and George Duke, whose finely tuned beats marr… Read more
*Plunderphonic legends Negativland return with this foil-embossed book/double CD album* "Negativland's new album finds the group tackling their biggest subject ever: why humans believe in God. Millennia-in-development, this ambitious and densely-crafted double-CD is packaged inside an actual Holy Bible which has been appropriately repurposed into a "found" art object. It's All In Your Head intends to entertain, inform and provoke, mixing found music, found sound, found dialogue, guest personalities and original electronic noises in a compelling and thoughtful musical essay that looks… Read more
"Blame it on the Ramones. After Deerhoof finished recording demos for La Isla Bonita this past February, they began rehearsing for an upcoming tour. Halfway through a run-through of a long-time Deerhoof live favorite, their cover of the Ramones classic "Pinhead," someone offhandedly asked, "Why don't we ever write a song like this?" So Greg quickly dashed off a song on a scrap of paper, showed it to the band, and they recorded the breakneck stomper "Exit Only" in one take. "And we suddenly realized," Greg says, "this is the whole thing, this is what the whole record is about! A little backgro… Read more
Chaz Bundick (Toto Y Moi) flirts with the 'floor on his debut album as Les Sins. 'Michael' follows a trio of slickly discofied 12"s for Daphni/Caribou's Jiaolong label with eleven tracks indebted to '90s filter house, sytnh-pop and almost Mo'wax style broken beats, all factored with his super keen pop and R&B sensibility. RIYL Falty DL, Four Tet, 100% Silk.
Fresh from his cover feature in The Wire magazine, Richard Dawson rises up from the bed of the River Tyne with a voice that crumbles and soars, steeped in age old balladry and finely-chiselled observations of the mundane. Richard Dawson is a skewed troubadour at once charming and abrasive. His shambolically virtuosic guitar playing stumbles from music hall tune- smithery to spidery swatches of noise-colour, swathed in amp static and teetering on the edge of feedback. His songs are both chucklesome and tragic, rooted in a febrile imagination that references worlds held dear and worlds … Read more
**Includes the tracks RGB and Fall Apart as an instant download** **DELS' sophomore LP starring production by Micachu and Bonobo plus vocals from Tirza, Rosie Lowe, Kerry Leatham** "Kieren Gallear aka DELS returns with his second album, Petals Have Fallen, and makes the step up from potential contender to full scale champ. Delivering on the potential he displayed on his first album, GOB, DELS has developed his own unique take on hip hop – intensely personal and poetic but also funny, scuzzy, raw and sonically adventurous. All the elements were there with his first record, but no one could hav… Read more
*Fourth album by Swedish husband and wife duo Mariam Wallentin and Andreas Werliin* Their first album in four years sees Wildbirds return lean, hungry and defiant . In returning to their roots they have discovered an unblinking directness, a taut muscularity honed from years of intensive live performance . For the first time, the pair wrote, recorded and produced everything in their own Stockholm studio "We wanted it to feel like a live experience. Almost every song is one take. We recorded standing in the same room, no screens or isolation, looking each other in the eyes. In recent years,… Read more
Listening to this latest album from Liz Harris' Grouper project it's easy to forget how much of a hard sell her music was back when 'Way Their Crept' landed with us back in 2005. Her eerie, layered mix of bare vocals, guitar and tape delay didn't quite fit in with what anyone else was really doing on the scene back then - and it completely knocked us out even if no one was buying it. By the time her breakthrough 'Dragging a Dead Deer…' arrived on Type three years later she was more or less playing to a baying mob hungry for any little morsel she cared to throw their way, her (by now) more fleshed out sh… Read more
Cache Cache / Finders Keepers commission Felix Kubin to trawl through his collection of German Home Recording Tape Music Of The 1980s to put together this killer comp - one of the label's very best. Running to 25 obscure one-hit wonders and hardly-known tracks - CHBB's 'Ima Iki Mashoo' is probably the best known to us, at least, which says a lot! - it's a rippin' trip around the tight knit but diffuse tape networks that Kubin was inspired by and tied to from an early age after witnessing a TV show starring performances by Palais Schaumberg, Der Plan, DAF and Der Körper und … Read more
*Deluxe 2CD Remastered and Expanded editions of Sextet, the ethereal yet rhythmic second album by Manchester postpunk funk group A Certain Ratio, originally released by Factory Records in January 1982*. Self-produced at Revolution Studio, Sextet saw the original Ratio quintet of Donald Johnson, Jeremy Kerr, Martin Moscrop, Simon Topping and Peter Terrell joined by co-vocalist Martha 'Tili' Tilson. Written and recorded following a transformative sojourn in New York in late 1980, the album reflects Latin, samba and even jazz influences (eg Skipscada; Day One), while sti… Read more
*All the music Bobby Beausoleil composed for the legendary Lucifer Rising soundtrack, crafted by legendary occult/avant-garde filmmaker, Kenneth Anger. Remastered recordings spanning 11 years, from the '67 recording to the Tracy Prison recordings of '78 spread over 4 compact discs clocking in at just under 3 hours. This is the first comprehensive CD version after 3 vinyl boxset editions* "Robert Kenneth Beausoleil was born under the sign of the scorpion on November 6th, 1947 in Santa Barbara, California. Roughly translated, Beausoleil means "Beautiful Sun"and Bobby has seized… Read more
Immersive, subtly dynamic soundscapes from electro-acoustic seer, Kevin Drumm, for the Handmade Birds label. Taken in light of Drumm's recent releases, the near-silence of 'Trouble' and the deathly ambience of 'Phantom Jerk', the 47 minute 'Wrong Intersection' is a deeply layered album, arriving in waves of spirit consuming noise washes and slow, desturctive detonations pierced with hi-frequency attacks and liable to switch tack from artillery onslaughts to their bombed-out aftermath in a muzzle flash. You almost get the sense that because this was released via a label he's not worked w… Read more
'Xen' sets a definitive new apex for 24 y.o. Venezuelan artist Alejandro Ghersi aka Arca following his pivotal production roles on two of the most important hip hop/R&B albums in recent memory; Kanye's 'Yeezus' and FKA Twigs 'EP2' & 'LP1' - plus production work on Bjork;s next album still to come. Suitably housed among the roster of electronic legends on Mute, it's a nimble leap forward from last year's incredible '&&&&&' mixtape/LP, refracting myriad variations of his chamber-like fusion of vaporwave 'tronics, tarraxho and technoid pop queered with completely unique tunings and rent with exquisite 3D dynami… Read more

*Full-length debut from the elusive Shinichi Atobe, known for an incredible 12" on Chain Reaction almost 15 years ago and never seen or heard from since. Audio mastered and cut by Matt Colton, Individually numbered CD edition housed in a hand stamped reverse-board mailer and including 4 bonus tracks not available on the vinyl edition* Shinichi Atobe has managed to stay off grid since he made an appearance on Basic Channel's Chain Reaction imprint back in 2001. He delivered the second-to-last 12" on the label and then disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a solitary 12" that's bee… Read more
Oren Ambarchi caps a vintage and truly prolific year of releases with the pulsing, searching, 5-part narrative of 'Quixotism'. Underpinned by the pulsing truth of Thomas Brinkmann's computable drums, the session unfolds with a preternaturally hypnotic logic, consolidating a wealth of contributions from the likes of regular collaborators Jim O'Rourke (synth), Crys Cole (contact mics, brushes), Eyvind Kang (bowed gender & violas) and John Tilbury (piano) with new input from U-zhaan (tabla) and the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra, plus co-production and engineering by Randall Dunn at Avast, Seattle.… Read more
A late pinnacle of the Drexciyan oeuvre, Storm 2 aka Transllusion's 'The Opening of the Cerebral Gate' is issued to download for the first time! This is the original CD track-listing, including 12 songs, as opposed to eight on the original 2LP. We're not quite sure what they were using on this one, but it's all remarkably bass-heavy, even saturated, compared with a lot of other Drexciyan workouts, resulting some of their most ruggedly stripped down electro-techno functions ranging from the pounding might of 'Transmission Of Life' to the militant march of 'War Of T… Read more
Master remixer DJ Koze collects 14 of his best circa 2009-2014 on 'Reincarnations 2'. The first disc highlights his 'floor-raising tech-house remix of Moderat's 'Bad Kingdom' alongside his woozy blue takes on Herbert's 'It's Only' and 'You Saw It All', whilst the second disc presents his expansive, lolling rework of Mount Kimbie's 'Made To Stray' and a slow-building version of Caribou's 'Found Out', among others. Better yet, the third plate includes his mildly lysergic infection of Zwanie Jonson's 'Golden Song', a killer hip hop cut-up of Gonzales' 'Knight Moves' and a chamber jazz-tronica overhaul of Soap & Skin's 'Marche Funèbre'.

American Gothic TV Series I remember seeing this many moons ago on tv, and then it vanished without trace, or resolution if memory serves. I've noticed that its gotten an R1 release recently and I was wondering if anyone has gotten it? Is it worth shelling out my hard earned Euros for? Is it the complete series? (Bearing in mind no network actually screened the entire series, to my knowlage) I enjoyed watching it on TV first time round, I just don't want to be left hanging for a second time!
Any help would be appreciated.

Its a very good series.

On remand for the murder of Tina McIntyre, Peter has struggled to keep his sobriety while behind bars and looked to Jim to provide him with alcohol.
But it soon became clear that Jim had an ulterior motive, as he used Peter to get his son Steve to visit him in prison.
"Peter has got to play Jim's game," says Chris. "Peter's intention is to get alcohol, Jim's intention is to get to see Steve, and so Peter rings Steve and begs him to come in.
"Steve reacts very badly to it and straight away he goes back to tell Liz."
The formidable Liz immediately pays her ex-husband a visit and warns him to leave her family alone and this means trouble for Peter...
Chris explains: "Jim gets angry and takes it out on Peter and then he stops his supply of alcohol.
"So, through desperation, Peter follows Jim to the kitchen where he keeps his alcohol and when Jim has left, Peter drinks it.
"It's pretty horrible stuff, but he drinks (himself) into oblivion and this is the straw that breaks the camel's back, this is when his body gives in."
But is this the end for Peter and will it mean Tina's real murderer, Rob Donovan, will get away with his terrible crime?
"Well we are going to have to wait and see," says Chris. "But at the moment it looks like it is."

very nice location for conference center Nice room, large bathtub
room was noisy (street noise)
swimming pool and sauna are really good
Breakfast is too expensive
Realy big room!
Staff are very helpful
Road noise in rearward facing rooms.. Main entrance automatic door is faulty.. Staff are happy to help but guests shouldn't have to bang on the window to get in..
Central location- easy walk to main areas Staff friendly
Decor a little 'tired'
location, view, swimming pool, staff, comfortable check-in and check-out timing
quite old fashion design in the whole structure
The staff were very helpful. Parking was readily available. Walking distance to good restaurants and parks.
The car park is ridiculous. First their is no sign to it, so if you are silly like me and expect a sign you will go round the one way system twice looking for it before you park up and walk around till you find it, as you would not want to end up in the wrong car park. Then comes the real shock. The car park was not closed properly.As there are homeless people sleeping rough in the car park beside the hotel car park, it is very easy for thieves to get at the cars without attracting attention. There was not any sign of video surveillance of the car park. There were two large signs warning visitors that the hotel does not accept any liability for theft or damage. Not hard to guess why these signs are quite new. They charge ten Euros per night for the car park and I estimate an annual income of at least 100k from the car park, so it is past time they fixed the entrance, put up some signs and installed video. You will also enjoy the queue in the morning at the coffee machine. This is a ten storey hotel with just one coffee machine.
Good gym and pool Close to city centre Basic but adequate
In need of modernising Very limited menu in the bar
Hygiene was good and the service is good
Before booking process is shown to me does not have a comprehensive mycosis after booking show me does not have breakfast, this may not be
Large and comfortable room and large bathroom easy to find and good parking very nice reception area
Price of drinks in bar were very high and we did not have breakfast at 16 euros each we though was a ridiculous amount carpet it room was stained and wash basin had seen better days
I had stayed in this property way back in 2006 with my wife. The rooms and bathrooms are the same since then. No upgrades since then. Owing to the locatipn and huge property the rooms and bathrooms need updating.
Bathroom and room carpets
Location (easy walk to town centre without hassle of night revellers) Genuine 6 minute walk from MediaCite shopping mall with 146 shops under roof (we came primarily for shopping) Free parking No-fuss reasonable breakfast Really helpful staff
Aircon bit noisy Single-glazed windows don't shut out external noise Potential bed bugs Towels a bit old
Easy parking, friendly staff, excellent breaffast, lqrge rooms, OK beds
Noisy room, both because of paper thin walls and windows that aren`t sound proff: Very noisy traffic. The heating coundn`t be turned off, so you basically got a very warm room with windows that couldn`t be opened because of noisy traffic. Plumming wasn`t OK: the toilet kept filling water and there was some large appliance outside that regularly restarted and made alot of noise. Sleeping was virtually impossible. Oh, and there was a peoblem with the lights too. Couldn`t get them to function properly because there were only a few switches. The telly was an old tiny CRT affair: long time since I`ve seen one of those in a hotel. This hotel needs an uptate.
Not bad but not so good. It is just a plain business hotel.
not a modern hotel but perfectly comfortable. Wonderful breakfast
Bath/shower water would not drain
breakfast large bed room
carpark needs resurfaceing no shoe cleaning mechine the city was dirty full of dog mess and humam waste along with tag with paint on all parts of the city
Good breakfast Large room

Detroit Lions Should Sign DeAngelo Hall
The Washington Redskins officially released corner DeAngelo Hall today, freeing up the $8 million cap hit that the team just couldn't afford to take. With Washington over the cap limit headed into tomorrow's deadline, the Redskins either had to cut Hall or restructure his deal and the team opted for the former.
Although Hall was open to negotiations, he also acknowledged the business side of things, according to a Washington Post report.
Hall now enters a flooded free agent market full of defensive backs and it just so happens that corner is one of the positions that the Detroit Lions are on the market for.
With a huge number of corners on the free agent market, the Lions are in a great position to get one of them for cheap. With Darrelle Revis clearly the most coveted DB in the league, much of the attention will be on his trade talks, which could prove great for Detroit.
This cornerback market is full of talent and Hall is no exception. He has good speed and has recorded 39 interceptions in his career. Yes, he has a tendency to get burned for big plays, but that will make him affordable for the Lions, who don't have much space to work with and are rumored to be in talks with running back Reggie Bush.
GM Martin Mayhew can't shell out the $5-6 million that Hall will ask for, but if the Lions can bring him in for $5.5 million for two years, they should do it. I really like Chris Houston as their number one corner, but the Lions struggled mightily in the secondary last season opposite him. Signing Hall would give the Lions an upgrade at the number two corner slot and would also give the team an opportunity to ease second-year corner Bill Bentley into the starting role.
Bentley was forced into a starting role as a rookie last year and showed signs of promise, but overall was not ready to start at the NFL level. After two years of playing nickel back alongside Hall and Houston, I bet that Bentley will be ready to start in this league.
The Lions have to get him for the right price, but signing Hall would be a step in the right direction for them.

Very Important Paper: Unambiguous Assignment of Short- and Long-Range Structural Restraints by Solid-State NMR using Segmental Isotope Labeling
Tobias Schubeis, Torsten Lührs, Christiane Ritter*
Solid-state NMR has become a powerful technique for the elucidation of the structures of large protein complexes. However, spectral complexity and sensitivity remain serious challenges. Protein trans-splicing by the split intein DnaE from Nostoc punctiforme allows specific segments of a full-length protein to be isotopically labeled under a wide variety of conditions. Christiane Ritter (Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research, Germany) and co-workers have now employed this approach to obtain solid-state NMR spectra of a fungal prion protein (HET-s) with significantly improved spectral quality. Protein trans-splicing can be easily combined with other isotope labeling strategies to facilitate the resonance assignment and collection of structural restraints of proteins by solid-state NMR.

Obama: "I Will Not Negotiate Over Debt Ceiling"
Der Fuhrer has spoken
(Slate) In a brief address Tuesday night, President Obama saluted the passage of a fiscal cliff deal that the White House had negotiated with the Senate. Then he fired a warning shot at Congressional Republicans, saying he won't tolerate another down-to-the-wire battle over the debt ceiling this spring.
"I will not have another debate with this Congress over whether or not they should pay the bills that they've already racked up," he said. "If Congress refuses to give the U.S. government the ability to repay these bills on time, the consequences for the global economy would be catastrophic–far worse than a fiscal cliff."
He concluded by calling for a 2013 marked by "a little bit less drama, a little bit less brinksmanship," and suggested the government "not scare the heck out of folks quite as much" the next time it has a major fiscal debate.
As it stands, the fiscal cliff deal is expected to add $4 trillion to the US debt over the next decade per the CBO (said debt hit $16.4 trillion on Monday). And it breaks down to $41 in tax increases for every $1 cut. Quite a far cry from the $3 in cuts for every $1 in tax increases Obama was yammering about out on the campaign trail, eh? Unfortunately, there were 51% who were just too moronic to understand that the man is a liar.
Said deal includes all sorts of perks, such as an extension of a Hollywood tax incentive. And does nothing to reduce, or even control spending. But, let's face it, elected Republicans allowed Obama to run them over, with the help of the compliant liberal media. But, now Obama and the Democrats own this economy lock, stock, and barrel. Whatever happens, it's theirs.
What's next? Well, we have the aforementioned debt ceiling
debate fight. We also have
2. Sequester: The so-called sequester is a series of automatic cuts in federal spending that will reduce the budgets of most agencies and programs by 8% to 10%.
Which really only amounts to about $110 billion, a drop in the bucket compared to Central Government spending, and
3. Continuing Budget Resolution: The federal government works on a fiscal year that starts every Oct. 1. Problem is it has been years since it actually enacted a real budget on time.
Because the Senate refuses to pass a budget, one of their legally required duties.
And now Obama's back to Hawaii, costing the taxpayers more money so that he can take a planet killing fossil fueled flight to resume his 1%er vacation.

Video: 1969–The Death of Modernism
The 1960s began with a presidential election between conservative cold warrior Richard Nixon…and the surprisingly conservative cold warrior John F. Kennedy. In terms of the similarity between the two candidates, and the public they represented, this was a high point in national unity. The assassination of JFK began a process that ultimately shattered that unity. During the course of the 1960s, Americans witnessed the split between the liberalism of FDR, Harry Truman, JFK and LBJ, and the rise of the punitive New Left that emerged in the wake of President Kennedy's assassination. As we explore in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti video blog, the alpha and the omega of those two forms of American liberalism came less than a month apart, in the summer of 1969…

ROSEVILLE, Minn. (AP) - Roseville police say a 20-year-old St. Paul man remains at large after an exhaustive search.
Officers pursued the man, believed to be armed, for several hours Friday afternoon after authorities say he threatened his girlfriend during a domestic dispute at a Roseville hotel.
A police spokesman tells the Star Tribune (http://strib.mn/1pYAsR1 ) the man apparently stormed into a room before noon at the Residence Inn and allegedly physically assaulted his 19-year-old girlfriend, who had been staying with her family.
Reports that the man may have fled into a nearby office building prompted an evacuation of the building. Police cordoned off the area, and a SWAT team was called to the scene.
After a three-hour search, police found no evidence the suspect had entered the building. He remained at large Friday night.

Baseball = America
Apr 18, 2012, 3:30 PM EST
Tim Stanley is a writer for the Telegraph in London. He went to his first baseball game the other day. Even though he referred to home plate as "fourth base," he shows a far greater understanding of what baseball is all about than that dude who slammed it in his football blog yesterday.
And not just because he says smart things like "the rules are simple and any confusion is cleared up by more beer." He understands the zeitgeist of the thing, and makes some interesting parallels between baseball and the American psyche, at least as we like to believe it to be:
At face value, baseball's an individualist sport because it's all about the man at the bat. He swings, he runs, he's in command of his destiny. But he's also playing for the team, and sometimes sacrifices have to be made. If someone's already at third base, the goal of the batter is to hit the ball far enough to allow his teammate to get to fourth – accepting that he'll probably get taken out himself as he sprints to first. It's a reminder that a necessary ingredient for the flourishing of the individual is the health and the wealth of the people around him. For you to succeed, others must succeed, too – and as with baseball teams, so with nations. We're all in this together.
I don't think our society always works that way. But I think we'd like it to. At the very least it has before and will again. And I think baseball reflects it far more than the other sports do, even if other sports reflect how our society works in practice from time to time.

Topic: Non-Natives
Title: Can non-native red-tip photinia be burned in fireplace from Lilburn GA?
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:Can I burn red tip photinia in my fireplace?
We would certainly rather you burn it than plant it, as it is non-native. Here is a previous answer on that plant. Some non-natives, such as oleander, are so poisonous that you cannot even burn it, because of the poisonous vapors it will release in the air. We don't believe that is the case with photinia, but we also don't know much about burning in a fireplace, so we will see what we can find.
To begin with, burning the limbs of a shrub seems more like burning trash than using firewood. Don't just dump that day's cuttings in the fireplace and expect to be happy with the result. Wait until all the leaves are gone, they will just smoke, and don't use twigs and small branches, unless perhaps for tinder. It should be considered as a softwood, so remember that when you are reading our references.
This first reference is from the U.K, so you may not recognize the trees mentioned, but the points about seasoning and storage are good. That reference is from Wildeye: Firewood. From CBS News Is Your Fireplace Ready?
Finally, please don't plant any more photinia, even if you can use it for firewood.

The Report by Dileep Premachandran
September 24, 2007
India 157 for 5 (Gambhir 75, Gul 3-28) beat Pakistan 152 (Misbah-ul-Haq 43, Pathan 3-16, RP Singh 3-23) by 5 runs
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
How they were out
Ten days earlier, India and Pakistan couldn't be separated in Durban. In front of a frenzied crowd at the Wanderers on Monday, they played out perhaps the best final ever seen in a major tournament. Once again, the ice-cool Misbah-ul-Haq threatened to drag Pakistan back from the brink, but the Indians just about held their nerve to clinch a five-run victory and the inaugural ICC World Twenty20.
After scrapping hard to get to 157 for 5 in the face of some tigerish bowling and fielding, India were inspired with the ball, and Pakistan appeared to be well out of contention with 54 needed from 24 balls and just three wickets in hand. But when Misbah thumped Harbhajan Singh for three sixes and Sohail Tanvir chipped in with a four-ball 12, the improbable became possible.
With Misbah on strike, Pakistan needed 13 from the final over. After a great deal of thought, Mahendra Singh Dhoni gambled on the inexperienced Joginder Sharma. When he started with a wide, Indian fans groaned, and the situation became even more desperate when Misbah pummelled a full toss miles over long-off for six. But with victory in his grasp, his judgement failed him. Moving across his stumps, he went for the scoop down to fine leg. He didn't connect cleanly, and millions on the subcontinent held their breath as Sreesanth came under the ball at short fine leg. When he held it, the stadium erupted.
The architects of the Indian triumph were the two left-armers, Rudra Pratap Singh and Irfan Pathan, both of whom scalped three wickets to scupper the chase. Singh struck in both his opening overs, having Mohammad Hafeez caught at slip and knocking Kamran Akmal's off stump out of the ground, but Imran Nazir played a blinder at the other end to keep his side ahead of the asking rate.
Two sixes and two fours came in Sreesanth's opening over, as Nazir cut and pulled with immense power. Sreesanth redeemed himself with a maiden to Younis Khan, but India still needed wickets as they sought to defend a middling total. The inspiration came from Robin Uthappa, whose unerring throw from mid-off to the keeper's end ended Nazir's blistering 14-ball 33.
Joginder's lack of pace provided the next breakthrough, with Younis miscuing one to mid-on, and the onus was on Shoaib Malik to see his side home. But with Irfan bowling a impeccable line and length and the Indian voices in the crowd growing louder, something had to give. And it was Malik that cracked, dragging a long hop to midwicket.
Pathan was euphoric, and moments later he and his team-mates were beyond the clouds. Shahid Afridi came to the crease with a boom-boom reputation, but left with a whimper after a heads-up heave that found Sreesanth at long-off. With the scoreboard showing 77 for 6, the match had seemingly swung inexorably India's way.
But Misbah, supported brilliantly by Yasir Arafat and Tanvir, had other ideas. And even though Irfan, Sreesanth and RP Singh produced magnificent yorkers to take India to the brink, no one breathed easy until Misbah fluffed his final line.
Gautam Gambhir and Umar Gul had shared the limelight in the Indian innings, with Gul taking 3 for 28 in a splendid spell where he bowled yorkers almost at will. Gambhir's scintillating 75 held the Indian innings together, and a late 30-run cameo from Rohit Sharma gave India them hope.
India's plans for the game had been rocked by the groin injury to Virender Sehwag, and his replacement, Yusuf Pathan, was nearly run out after dawdling for the first one. Otherwise known as Irfan's older brother, Yusuf came into prominence in domestic Twenty20, and he quickly demonstrated his ability with a straight six off Mohammad Asif.
With Asif bowling well below his normal pace, Yusuf then carved one through point for four before an ambitious pull landed in Malik's hands at mid-on. That stemmed the early tide, and India were reliant mainly on singles to up the scoring rate. Uthappa endeavoured to inject some momentum into the innings, but his attempt to go over extra-cover landed tamely in the hands of the fielder.
With Malik quickly bringing on Afridi and Hafeez, India needed someone to find the gaps. Gambhir was the man, lacing some lovely drives through the covers and pushing the singles as Yuvraj Singh played himself in. Gambhir was ruthless with the loose delivery, heaving Afridi over midwicket for six as runs started to come too quickly for Malik's liking.
His response was to call on Gul, Pakistan's most effective pace bowler in this competition. Gambhir cut him behind point en route to a 38-ball 50, but Gul's round-the-wicket line was soon to earn its reward. Yuvraj, in resplendent batting form in previous big games, didn't ever get going and a miscued pull landed straight back down in Gul's hands.
With the fielders showing tremendous commitment in the outfield and Gul mixing short-pitched deliveries with perfect yorkers, the batsmen grew increasingly frustrated. The pressure finally told on Dhoni, whose swipe met only with air as Gul produced another fast-and-straight special.
Gambhir tried to break free of the shackles, and a massive six that thudded into the scoreboard at midwicket had the Indian fans dancing, but Gul's retribution was swift. An attempted flick-paddle went straight to Asif at short fine leg, and Gambhir's splendid innings was finally over.
Sharma had shone against South Africa in a crunch game, and he came to the fore again in the final two overs, taking Arafat for two fours before he lofted a slower ball from Tanvir in the direction of long-on. Hafeez got there, but could only tip the ball over the rope. On such incidents are matches between these two great rivals won and lost. On an enthralling afternoon at the Bullring though, there were no winners or losers, just a resounding success for a format that is undoubtedly here to stay.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Syracuse Police continue their investigation into Monday night's double shooting. Police said three men armed with handguns went into a home on the 100 block of Van Renssalear Street just before 8:30 p.m. and attempted to rob the people in the second floor apartment.
Josh Hinton, 24, was shot in the abdomen and Jacquelin Palmer, 22, was shot in the neck. Both are at Upstate University hospital in critical and serious condition.
Police said this was not a random attack.
"We believe that this house was targeted for a reason. We don't believe this was a random home invasion. We believe that there was a reason that whoever committed this crime came to this house to rob them. We're looking into the possibility that it could have been over drugs," said Syracuse Police Sergeant Tom Connellan.
Police said the three male suspects left in a blue four-door sedan. Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact Syracuse Police at (315) 442-5222.
