Life And Times - Bob Mould
- Summary: The ex-Husker Du singer moves away from the electronic sounds of his more recent releases and returns to the guitar stylings he played 20 years ago.
- Record Label: Anti
- Genre(s): Rock
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 10 out of 17
Mixed: 7 out of 17
Negative: 0 out of 17
Reminiscing on lost love and lust, Mould impresses with his songwriting skills.
He's alternately reflective, rueful and accusatory, and he combines all three on 'I'm Sorry Baby, But You Can't Stand in My Light Any More.'
So even if these aren't Mould's actual "Life and Times", he relays them with a conviction that, although occasionally over-the-top, makes them live and breathe as if they were his own.
Life And Times is unchallenging pap. But it's furnished with the odd line of lyrical craftiness and melodies that, on the whole, manage to keep the stabilisers on his career because (as always) they make the seemingly untenable emotions of their writer sound tolerable.
Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 1
Mixed: 0 out of 1
Negative: 0 out of 1
EEApr 8, 2009As a complete album with an arc of songs, it is Mould's most consistently solid record this decade. It doesn't necessarily have the front loaded highs of Body of Song, and is not as eclectic as District Line. Overall though, it may be better than both of those previous albums (certainly stronger than DL). The title track, the Breach, Argos, Spiraling Down, and most of all Wasted World are the highlights. WW is one of the best songs he's written and produced in years, and within it, he finally unleashes the sort of unhinged guitar solo he hasn't played since Beaster's "Tilted", 16 years ago! Argos is fun - SugarDu meets Pansy Division. The only eh songs are City Lights and Lifetime, the rest are fine tunes. He's been touting the record as Workbook revisited, but it really is not that; maybe just in spirit and in how he went about writing the songs. But they don't sound at all like Workbook. The album is streamlined, subtle, sturdy and compelling. Dog and Pony has stronger songs at times, Body had more hooks and sugarguitars, and FUEL had more melodic drive and velocity, but as a cohesive statement, Life and Times just might be the best Bob Mould release since Beaster.… Expand

ANY beer is ready to drink when your tastebuds tell you it is! It depends on flavor, not the calendar!
Life begins at 60....1.060, that is!www.dennybrew.comhttp://www.experimentalbrew.com - the website for the book "Experimental Homebrewing"...coming Nov. 2014
'tis very true. My APA is generally best at about 6-8 weeks but my Imperial Stout tastes great when it's coming out of the fermenter!
If Homebrew & BBQ aren't the answer, then you're askin' the wrong questions... Cheers!!!
Iam doing this batch this weekend. It is my first HG brew and have a question about the pitching rate. I see that it calls for an 1800ml starter. I only have a 1000ml flask. I do have a 1/2 growler but I do not think that the stir bar I have ( the small one) is going to work with the growler and stir plate.Option 1 is make a 1800ml starter use the stir bar and hope it works. I can just aerate the crap out of it via direct O2 injection before adding yeast.Option2 Just make a 1000ml starterOption3 Use a dry yeast. If I go this route is one packet enough or go for 2? Rehydrate or not?
Homer: Im feelin low, Apu. You got any of that beer that has candy floating in it, you know, Skittlebrau?
Apu: Such a product does not exist, sir! You must have dreamed it.
Homer: Oh. Well then just gimme a six-pack and a couple of bags of Skittles.
which liquid yeast? i would just use us05 or us04 or notty. one packet
One thing I've been interested in trying, but have not (and I haven't heard of anyone else doing it) is making 2 starters and combining them.
If you need 1800 mL, you could make a 900 mL starter, then when you're confident the consumable sugars are gone, put that in a sterilized container (perhaps that growler) then make another 900 mL starter. You would only need 1/2 of your yeast packet/vial for each starter. It would take longer, and I don't think you'd be ready by this weekend, but I think it should work just fine.
What I did for this brew (I don't have a stirplate) is I used a (roughly) 3000 mL starter. I took a large jug I have, made my starter in that, and then everytime I walked by it in the kitchen, I opened it up, expelled the CO2 in the headspace out of it, let it fill back up with O2, then shook the crap out of it. I probably did this 10-15 times over a 2.5 day time period. I got VERY aggressive fermentation after I pitched. I have not taken FG yet, however.

Canada: Per Capita Pork and Beef Consumption to Rise.Per capita [Latin, By the heads or polls.] A term used in the Descent and Distribution of the estate of one who dies without a will. It means to share and share alike according to the number of individuals. pork consumption in Canada is expected to rise to 23.2kg in 2010 compared to 22.9kg in 2009, the US government has estimated. Furthermore, Canadian beef consumption is expected to show signs of expansion by late 2010.
Of the three major meats, beef, pork and chicken, over the last decade the share of pork in the Canadian per capita meat consumption is the only one that has declined. In 2000, pork represented 32 percent of total consumption and by 2008 it had dropped to 28 percent.
In addition, per capita pork consumption in 2008 declined 4.8 percent from 2007. The pork industry is battling against consumer perceptions that pork is not easy or fast to prepare and lack of perception that pork is a "healthy" meat. Pork has also made limited inroads inroads
Noun, pl

inroads npl to make inroads into [+ in the foodservice market.
Furthermore, the expectation is that the 2009 figure will show a further decline, estimated at 22.9 kilograms per person, primarily due to the recession and overall downturn in meat consumption. Uncertainty about the linkage with H1N1 also pushed pork consumption down. With lower prices consumption is forecast to rise slightly in 2010.
Domestic per-capita beef consumption is expected to stabilize and show signs of expansion by late 2010 prompted by the economic recovery and soft prices.
Per capita beef consumption is expected to be 31kg compared to 30kg in 2009. Although total meat consumption has declined with the recession, beef has been the favoured red-meat for consumption given some effect of H1N1 on consumer perceptions of pork although lower pork prices coupled with shoppers seeking increased value puts downward pressure on beef prices.
In 2008, per capita beef consumption declined to 30.32 kilograms carcass carcass, carcase

The kidneys are left in and in most instances the body is split down the middle through the sternum and the vertebral weight basis, a 4.7 percent decrease from 31.7 kilograms in 2007 and the fifth decrease in six years. Beef consumption increased moderately in 2003 after the BSE-related market disruption Market Disruption

Market disruptions can result from both physical threats to the stock exchange or a unusual trading (as in a crash). resulted in additional beef supplies on the Canadian market at reduced prices.

Tax Increases We Cannot Afford
The Bush tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 will expire on January 1, 2011. When they sunset, taxes will increase by 10 percent or more on American families struggling to stay afloat during tough economic times.
Taxes will go up an average of two thousand dollars per household on top of the six hundred billion in taxes associated with Obamacare.: : These are costs families today cannot afford.
The outlook for American businesses is just as dim.: Capital gains taxes will increase from 15 percent to 20 percent, and the tax on dividends will more than double from 15 to 39.6 percent. These are job killing tax increases.
The death tax, which breaks up family farms and destroys America's small businesses, will automatically be reinstated in 2011 at a crippling rate of 55 percent. (My opponent, Congressman Bob Etheridge, voted against permanently eliminating the death tax.)
The last thing our staggering economy and struggling families need right now is to be hit by these huge tax increases. Instead, we should make these tax cuts permanent in order to breathe life into our economy.
I have signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge and vowed, if elected, I will oppose any and all efforts to increase the tax rate for individuals and/or businesses – that includes voting to continue President Bush's tax cuts.
Congressman Etheridge, where do you stand? Do you support the Obama agenda? Or will you join me in cutting taxes?

Kansas City pit-masters are a bit like wizards: with dashes of sauce and wisps of wood-smoke, they summon barbecue aficionados from across the world. But tourists aren't the only ones who hunger for their savory-sweet brisket, ribs, and burnt ends??locals do, too. Bethanie Schemel, owner of KC Barbecue Tours, gives both locals and travelers insider's access to the rich history??and deep flavor??of the city's smoked-meat scene through bus-guided food tours.
On these tours, groups visit famed barbecue hot-spots. They also make stops at beneath-the-radar barbecue joints. "We do have a couple smaller places on our tour that we tend to keep a secret because they are the hidden gems that not a lot of people know about," owner Bethanie Schemel told KCTV 5 News. Food isn't the only reason for booking a spot on one of KC Barbecue Tours' expeditions?participants also get a peek at behind-the-scenes preparation techniques, and can ask pit-masters for tips on what type of wood chips to use or how to build a xylophone from leftover rib bones.
Pedal Hopper turns bar hopping into a workout. Aboard the company's European-style party bikes, up to 16 people?10 of whom are pedaling?cruise between nightlife spots, making brief stops at three of their favorite watering holes. A professional driver steers the bike for the gang as they cruise along, reaching top speeds of 8 mph. For added safety, the vehicle is also extremely well-lit, outfitted with headlights, taillights, LED lights, and a glittering disco ball in accordance with state law.
Each night, KC Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze undergoes a bone-chilling transformation. Its family-friendly rides and activities vanish in the gathering dusk, replaced by the five frightening attractions that make up KC Fear Farm. Ghastly clowns terrorize guests amid the Circus Asylum's dark, billowing curtains, and a Buried Alive attraction horrifies all five senses with a realistic simulation of being six feet under. The corn maze—aptly renamed the Field of Screams—elicits cries of horror from visitors who dare to wander its pitch-black corners. Available on a separate or combined ticket, the Zombie Apocalypse paintball adventure pits turret-mounted paintball guns against armies of bloodthirsty undead.
As summer turns to fall and the barbecue grills begin their migration south, The Patch at The Farm welcomes visitors to celebrate the dawning of the harvest season across its 30 acres. Taking up 11 of those acres, the corn maze's twists and turns test visitors' problem-solving skills. Bright-orange pumpkins pepper a 4-acre patch, patiently awaiting families to bring them home, where they'll fully blossom into pies or grinning jack-o'-lanterns. Over in the petting zoo, goats, chickens, and mini-donkeys entertain wee ones with rides and their ability to speak five languages. Other attractions include a hayride to Lanesfield Museum, ziplining, pumpkin bowling, a pedal track, and bounce houses.
The stresses of the city seem light years away for guests who retreat to Screamin' Oaks Farm, a working farm with goats, pigs, peacocks, chickens, cows, geese, quail, donkeys, and hound dogs. Visitors meet the farm's fleet of white and black goats, whose milk is sold onsite and also made into creamy chèvre goat cheese and homemade ice cream. Farmhands foster introductions to creatures large and small, letting guests milk the goats themselves and pet the furry mane of a young donkey. Turtles idle along in their own dedicated habitat as peacocks stalk the grounds, opening and expanding their turquoise plumage when a mate is nearby or when they want to take up two seats on tractor rides.

Matt White
Matt white vinyl reflective surface diffuses projected light in all directions, so image can be seen from any angle. MW provides accurate colour rendition as well as superior clarity. Recommended for use with all high light output projection devices. Better in a low ambient light environment.
Gain = 1.1
Glass Bead
Spherical glass beads embedded in surface provide more reflection giving a brighter image compared to matt white. This brighter image is limited to a smaller viewing angle than matt white. Glass Bead screens will slightly alter the purity of the colours displayed... and will have 'sweet spots' where the picture is at its premium... the picture at other viewing angles can appear slightly darker (yet still lighter than a MW screen).
Gain = 2.5
Matt Grey
High-contrast Matt Grey, similar to Matt White, but with a darker surface designed to enhance the blacks of the projected images, even as whites and lighter colours are maintained. Performs well in ambient light condition. With a lower power projector the whites are not quite as bright as with other surface greys, but dark tone appear much darker.
Gain = 0.8

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

The General Services Administration is moving ahead with a new approach to buying complex and integrated professional services that are supported by IT, the agency announced Feb. 21.
Federal Acquisition Service (FAS) Commissioner Steve Kempf approved the internal business case for the Integrations program earlier this month, according to GSA's Integrations Blogger's Blog on the agency's "Interact" website.
Integrations will be a multiple-agency indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract. The Integrations contract is expected to include commercial and non-commercial services, that may include program management and consulting services. GSA is also considering having logistics services, professional engineering services and financial services on the menu. GSA is designing the contract vehicle to address needs for professional services that span several types of services that are often difficult to specify or quantify before making an award. However, the contract will elevate risk as a result, wrote Lisa Maguire, program manager for Integrations.
Mary Davie, assistant FAS commissioner for the Integrated Technology Service, said GSA's Schedules program offers technology and other professional services on an a la carte basis. But agencies want more.
"Agencies have asked us to provide a total professional services solution, which often requires acquisition of multiple services across separate functional areas," she wrote Feb. 21 on her Great Government Through Technology blog.
Davie said agencies want flexibility. About half of all government spending on complex integrated professional services in fiscal 2010 took place under cost-type contracts.
"That is why we are planning to include all task-order types in Integrations, including cost reimbursement," she wrote.
Officials intend to make the acquisition process more flexible for all sorts of contract-type task orders and other direct costs at the task-order level, Maguire wrote.
At this point, the Integrations program team is working on a project schedule.
So far though, officials have said they are developing a customer working group, and, for industry, they plan to post draft documents for feedback as the working group meets. GSA wants to make the acquisition planning process to include input from industry and customers. GSA also has to register the contract vehicle with OMB's MAX Federal website.
Davie is planning a "Tweet Chat" Feb. 29 from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. She wants to interact with customer agencies and industry on a range of topics about Integrations. She will be answering tweets to @GSA_ITS with the hashtag #ITSChat.

I'm grossly curious as to how nearly half of all "professional services" (which sure sounds like commercial services to me) are awarded as cost type awards when the FAR is explicit in stating that you CAN NOT use cost-type contracts for commercial work/services?
Your article correctly avoids the mis-use of GWAC in describing this contracting effort. Such has not been the case with some other articles.Thank you for the accuracy. I am somewhat disheartened that during the same time GSA has been assessing the need for INTEGRATIONS it seems to have been unable to reolve the perplexing problem of ODCs on the Schedules contracts [currently capped @ $3K]. The ability of Schedule's contracts to support client agency requirements would be enhanced if the matter of ODCs could be resolved in the same forwarding thinking manner`as is being applied to INTEGRATIONS.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has established regulations requiring states, counties and cities, including the City of North Charleston, to develop and implement a Stormwater Management Program to protect our waters from pollutants generated by stormwater runoff. The City of North Charleston is implementing a Stormwater Management Program consistent with the Federal Clean Water Act and South Carolina Pollution Control Act, with the goal of reducing the amount of runoff pollution that eventually makes its way into local waters.
The City's NPDES Stormwater Discharge Permit requires the City to develop, implement, and enforce a program to reduce pollutants from stormwater runoff from construction activities that result in land disturbance. Most land disturbing activities in the City require a Stormwater Permit. The City has developed guidance in the form of a Stormwater Permitting and Design Manual. The manual is available through the link provided below.

Lakers news: Mike D'Antoni exploring Nate McMillan as defensive assistant
- Updated: May 3, 2013
The Los Angeles Lakers are looking at bringing in a high-level assistant to head up the defense in order to help head coach Mike D'Antoni, and former NBA player and coach Nate McMillan is at the top of their wish list, according to Ken Berger of CBS Sports.
It will be a hard sell to get McMillan to join the staff, however, because he is thought to be in line for one of many head coaching vacancies throughout the NBA this summer. Among those targeting him are the Charlotte Bobcats and executive Michael Jordan, who appear posed to make a run for his services. If the Lakers can't land him, then former Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry is said to be among the potential candidates.
McMillan and D'Antoni were on the staff together with the Team USA basketball program.
In 2012-13, the Lakers had a disastrous season, but it was on defense where they were particularly bad. D'Antoni took a lot of the blame when things went awry on that end of the floor, but to be fair, it's the team personnel, not any system or lack thereof that caused the Lakers to struggle. L.A. has aging stars Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash and Metta World Peace as its primary perimeter defenders, and their effectiveness has to be in question heading into next season. More than anything, they'll need to communicate outsmart teams on that end of the floor.
That's what a coach with a focused plan can help to do, and it's what they need most. During the regular season, they were 22nd in the league in opponents' points per game with 101.0. Their defensive rating was 20th with a 106.6 mark. That statistic measures the amount of points they gave up per 100 possessions.
Again, D'Antoni doesn't deserve all the blame for these dismal number, but the right assistant could help turn things around in a hurry.

Case in point? His YouTube series 'The Busey Zone,' where he rambles about ... well, everything. And this week, in a video he calls 'Hornyism,' Busey discusses Hobbits, South Koreans, baby reindeer, Lapland and the very nature of the word "horny." Through song.

Feelings for housemate who's smitten with a player
Advice columnist Carolyn Hax offers a compromise on handling a tricky situation.
Syndicated columnist
Dear Carolyn
Adapted from a recent online discussion.
DEAR CAROLYN: My housemate is smitten with a girl (nothing has happened yet), and he asks me for advice and I just have such a bad feeling. It's so viscerally anti-her that I wonder if I'm secretly harboring feelings for him. And it's nothing glaring — she seems thoughtful and is very friendly.
Can you tell me if my red flags are ludicrous? (1) She has dated at least four of his friends. (2) All of them still have strong negative feelings about her. (3) She started getting very close to him (gifts, late-night texts) while still dating someone else. (4) She seems to need to be desired, by a lot of people, a lot. (5) She is MUCH friendlier to men than women.
Am I a jealous hag?
— Red Flags
DEAR RED FLAGS: Each flag seems legitimate, and you do have feelings for him.
The former isn't a tough call, and the latter isn't my call at all — you basically admitted it. If I'm right, though, then think of it as a game of hearts. Either stay out of it entirely while his crush runs its (collision) course, or shoot the moon — admit you're allergic to her for what you think are legitimate reasons in spite of your blatant self-interest due to your, ah, feelings for him.
TO RED FLAGS: I don't know if I agree with Carolyn. I have had similar feelings about a woman whom you describe to such a tee I genuinely wondered if it was the same person. This woman didn't really encroach on my marital territory (although she did overrun my social network), so it wasn't an issue of romantic jealousy. She just ... triggered me. It can be personally offensive to watch a woman use your (male) friends for their affections, and also not value other women at all.
— Anonymous
DEAR ANONYMOUS: Thanks. You're right, someone can still offend you when you have no personal stake in her actions.
... To the extent that, when I read the description, I too thought it could be someone I once knew. Same thing — couldn't abide the person even when nothing of mine was at stake. Still can't.
DEAR CAROLYN: I do think I probably have feelings for him. Our housing situation is essentially a sexless companion marriage — I have never gotten along with anyone quite so easily or well, down to the level of messiness tolerable, correct procedure for making a stir-fry, kindness and musical taste. I'm protective of him for that, and also because his mother recently died. I get irritated every time this girl's name comes up. I know he loves living with me, but I don't think the romantic feelings are mutual.
— Red Flags again
DEAR RED FLAGS AGAIN: I hope you two find your way to each other.
There might be a middle way to handle this, if you think you can admit she rubs you the wrong way and also admit you're not an unbiased judge ... without overcommitting to an analysis of either. Planting seeds, leaving breadcrumbs, pick your cliché, would let him think things over, at least.
If you let things run their course, though, remember — he'll apparently have "strong negative feelings about her" soon.

Digital Rapids Transcode Manager Elevates High-Volume Transcoding for Stellar Inflight
June 6, 2011 — Sydney, Australia: Digital Rapids – the leading provider of tools and solutions for bringing television, movie and Web content to wider audiences — announced today that Stellar Inflight, the world's longest running in-flight entertainment company, is using the Digital Rapids Transcode Manager automated transcoding software to transform high volumes of video and audio for both new and traditional in-flight entertainment (IFE) systems and viewing platforms.
A Transcode Manager Server and multiple Transcode Engines are deployed at each of Stellar Inflight's technical facilities in Sydney, Kuala Lumpur and Beijing. High volumes of source files are transformed by Transcode Manager into multiple outputs in the formats required by varying in-flight entertainment systems. Transcode Manager is also used to transcode content for viewing on portable media players and tablets — such as the Apple(r) iPad(r) — now available to passengers on select airlines.
"Our video facilities were almost overwhelmed with the volume of content we were processing, so we needed an automated solution that could handle the heavy workload while outputting consistent video and audio to multiple, exacting specifications," said Joel Joslin, Digital Media Manager at Stellar Inflight. "Digital Rapids Transcode Manager has delivered on all of our requirements, and transcoding video with it has proven significantly quicker than the other solutions we've used, enabling us to take on more business."
"The advances in in-flight entertainment are yet another example of the continuing explosive growth of multi-screen content consumption, we're excited that Stellar Inflight has selected Transcode Manager to power their high-throughput media processing workflows," said Nick Fitzgerald, VP, Asia Pacific at Digital Rapids. "The performance, quality, scalability and flexibility of Transcode Manager are ideal for supporting media organisations' growing needs and expanding content volumes both today and in the future."
Established in 1974, Stellar Inflight — part of the Stellar Group of companies — provides in-flight entertainment services for many of the world's leading airlines. In addition, Stellar is in partnership with Sky Victory Technologies in Beijing, which provides in-flight entertainment to many major Chinese airlines.
Digital Rapids Transcode Manager combines outstanding quality, intelligent automation and exceptional performance for transforming high volumes of media between dozens of acquisition, production, archive and multi-screen distribution formats. Scalable from small transcoding farms to global operations with hundreds of transcoding nodes, Transcode Manager is ideal for both dedicated transcoding applications and as part of complete ingest-through-delivery media workflows.

On Friday October 24th, Sir Ronald was conferred with the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Letters (D.Litt) by the University of the West Indies at its St Augustine Campus in Trinidad and Tobago. Sir Ronald also delivered an address to the graduating class of 2014. His address and the citation appear in the "Lectures and Interviews" section of this website.
Sir Ronald Sanders addressing 2014 UWI graduating Social Sciences Faculty at St Augustine, Trinidad
Thursday 13 November 2014
A new commentary has been posted. It is entitled: Anti-Obama forces cloud global stability. The commentary says there is little doubt that the last two years of Obama's Presidency will be beset with obstacles on both the domestic and foreign policy fronts. There is almost a primitive urge within the Republican Party not only to ensure that he enjoys no successes during the rest of his term, but also to overturn the things he has accomplished so far. The present Congress has already shown that it has no intention of co-operating with him. Therefore, he has only a slim chance of implementing his instinctive policies for a better America and a more just world.
President Obama faces a hostile Republic dominated Congress
The previous commentary is:Getting a Caribbean Voice in the G20. It argues that small developing countries remain excluded from direct representation in the councils of the G20. Apart from the efforts of the Commonwealth Secretariat to feed papers into the technical working groups, little account is taken of the economic circumstances of small states. The only relevance to them of the G20 is the new rules, new restrictions and new regulations that cost them money.
Tony Abbot, Prime Minister of Australia and Chair of the G20, November 2014
A previous commentary is:Not only cricket at stake but self-worth of the West Indian people. The commentary looks at the walk out of a tour of India by the West Indian players over a pay dispute with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB). Stating that throughout the West Indies people are angry, the commentary argues that West Indians feel a deep sense of being let down and of being deprived of something precious to their souls. Yes, the matter is about the West Indian cricketers; yes, it is also about the administration of West Indian Cricket and the WICB; but beyond everything else it is about the ethos and self-worth of the West Indian person. That is what is at stake – and all the parties should keep that foremost in their minds.
Sir Ronald Sanders is a business executive and former Caribbean diplomat who publishes widely on Small States in the global community.
Welcome to this website. I have created it in response to many requests for access to commentaries I have written, lectures I have given and interviews that have been broadcast or printed in the media on matters related to the political economy of the Caribbean and the Commonwealth.
These requests have come from university students, publications, academics, government officials and business people in many parts of the world. In the course of responding to these requests, I have been pleased to build up a network of global contacts who now receive my commentaries weekly.
From a career that encompassed broadcast and print journalism, development and commercial banking, diplomacy and international negotiations in both the public and private sectors, I am privileged to draw on wide and varied experiences to write, lecture and undertake consultancies. I have taken the greatest pleasure in receiving comments and criticism from people all over the world that the Internet has made a "village". I have learned from many of the comments I received. They have caused me to reflect on my own thinking. Through this website, I hope to communicate regularly with all who write to me.
The website is now a permanent repository of the weekly commentaries going back several years. Anyone is free to access them here, and to cite them provided my permission is sought in advance through the "Contact me" mechanism. A few of the lectures I have given in Britain and in the Caribbean are also posted on the site in a PDF format which can be easily downloaded. Again, I would make the same request to seek my permission before citing the material.
From time to time, where it is possible, the site will also reflect consultancies that I undertake that may have an interested audience beyond the companies and organizations with which I work.
I invite responses to my writings, and inquiries about the experience and knowledge I can bring to achieving the objectives of companies and organizations that do business related to the Caribbean and the Commonwealth.
My consulting work includes: country investment advice; negotiations with governments and international organizations; structuring and implementing public affairs programmes; designing public relations and information strategies; negotiations with financial institutions and organizing and participating in seminars for interest groups such as journalists, diplomats, and specialized academics.
Kind regards
Ronald Sanders
