Artist Name:
Ricardo Bullemore
Winter Moods
Date Posted:
April 2013
Rock and Pop
Mac with Digidesign 888|24Mix interface running Pro Tools 5.1 under Mac OS 9. Plug-ins: Pro Tools compressor/eq/limiter/reverb, Digidesign Soft SampleCell sample player for strings and brass. Mics: Sony C-48 condenser (drums), Neumann M149 (vocals). M-Audio piano, Warwick Fortress 1 bass, Gibson Les Paul Custom, Premier Signia 1 drum set and Zildjian cymbals (the bass drum was sampled).
"Winter Moods" is a male vocal rock song. Ricardo did it all at his home studio in Santiago, Chile.
While quick intro fade-ins are not uncommon, the piano fade here sounds awfully derivative in our opinion. We also felt that there were some tuning issues (also very McCartney-like!) with the keyboard and the electric guitar that tend to distract after a while. In addition, the crash cymbal during the electric guitar solo was a bit too loud in the mix, at least through our monitors.
On the plus side, Ricardo really has captured the mood and spirit of a particular era of recording with obvious study and conviction, not as easy to pull off as it may appear. The fact that he handled all of the instruments, including "real" drums, by himself, makes it even more impressive!
Suggestions: Emulation aside, tuning issues in today's recording world are always troublesome. As stated earlier, there were instances when even Sir Paul, for all of his greatness, was guilty of tuning faux pas. Back before electronic tuners and certainly pre Auto-Tune, one often relied on a studio's piano as the bedrock by which the other instruments were ear tuned. I know, I know, it's sooo 20th century! Problem was, if said piano was slightly out of tune, everything else followed suit. While it is obvious that Ricardo draws at least some inspiration from this golden era, we hope it stops short of such barbaric methods and instead suggest he rely on a more modern approach.
Regarding the intro fade-in, one man's ceiling is another man's floor -- we found it a bit too Beatles, others may not. As for the crash cymbal, anything that is distracting us from the guitar solo needs to be set back further into the mix. It is the guitar's turn to shine, hence the word "solo"... so let it be! (Get it? Let it be... ah, never mind...)
Summary: Simple fixes will tighten this presentation nicely.

Olympics may illuminate flats to rent in Newham
Those thinking of finding flats to rent in Newham may be more excited about living near the Olympic stadium now the lights have been switched on.
Yesterday (December 20th) saw the illumination of the main venue for the 2012 games, with prime minister David Cameron, London Organising Committee chairman Seb Coe and London mayor Boris Johnson being joined by members of the local community.
Mr Cameron said: "Beyond 2012 we want to ensure these Games deliver a strong legacy - not just regenerating this part of East London, but boosting our national economy and inspiring a new generation to get active and get into sport."
The stadium has 532 individual lights suspended from 14 towers.
One benefit of living in the area will be the development of the Olympic Park, which after the games will become a large open public space, with a dedicated Olympic Park Legacy Company charged with looking after it.

Criminalization of HIV/AIDS non-disclosure a step backwards
11/24/2014 - We've made great strides scientifically since AIDS was first met with widespread fear and stigma in the 1980s. But the treatment of HIV in Canada's courts represents a giant step backward.
Canada stands out globally in its vigorous prosecution of people living with HIV. To date, more than 150 people have been criminally charged in Canada -- most commonly for aggravated sexual assault -- for not disclosing their HIV-positive status, according
to tracking by the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network.

HIV, Drugs, and Prisoners: Barriers to Epidemiologic and Intervention Research
November 20, 2014 - The United States has the highest rate of incarceration in the world. In 2011, 2.2 million individuals were held in state or federal prisons and local jails (Bureau of Justice Statistics, 2012).

first in 2003 and 2006 to establish a baseline, then most recently in 2012. The surveys attempt to measures Canadians awareness, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours related to HIV/AIDS.

"How good and pleasant it is when the people of God live together in unity" (Psalm 133:1). Yes, and how ugly it is when we don't. I wonder, do God's Politics readers think we're lacking civility in our country today [6]? If so, read on.
A poll released on Tuesday [7] shows that two-thirds of Americans consider a general lack of civility to be a major problem in our country, while 72 percent agree that poor behavior has worsened in recent years. According to the poll, the most uncivil parts of society include politics, roadways, talk radio, Hollywood, and pro sports. Among the most civil are advertising, Twitter, friends, and places of worship.
Sure, most of this is unsurprising. What's really interesting is that half of Americans are "tuning out government and politics." Why? Almost two-thirds cite our lack of civility. Furthermore, folks are also tuning out reading opinion pieces and editorials (sorry, newspapers), paying attention to news, and general Democrat vs. Republican election hoopla.
Honestly, I sort of expect this lack of civility heading into election season. All the repetitious ads, red and blue (and green) signs, fear-mongering -- it all makes me nauseous. I love the idea of (somewhat) democratically electing our politicians. But I can't stand the election-time "it's all about me" attitude.
I'm waiting for a congressional candidate to run on a civility platform, not just because I think a civil candidate should win, but because they likely could win. In an era where sports, Twitter, and houses of worship are more civil than civil society, our politicians could use a strong dose of bipartisan civility. [8]
But I don't expect it any time soon. Rather than finding common ground, our politicians are busy defining their differences. And as citizens, like communication practitioner Neil Postman once said, we're too busy "amusing ourselves to death." We've sacrificed deep, interpersonal dialogue for the instant gratification of e-mail, text messaging, and Twitter. This is no way to have a conversation.
So how do we invite more civil rhetoric, relationships, and community? Perhaps with the notion that we're all in this together. Let's all take some time this summer to put down our gadgets and sit down with our fellow Americans. Yes, too often we use the wrong media to communicate. But we can't blame our gadgets. In the end, we have to look at our own willingness to dialogue. As the civility poll says, more than 75 percent of respondents say the American public, political leaders, news media, businesses, and places of worship are all responsible for putting civility back in civil society.
This past spring, Sojourners recognized our need for civility, and released a "Covenant for Civility." In the heat of summer pre-election season, I invite you be a part of this covenant [9]:
We pledge to God and to each other that we will lead by example in a country where civil discourse seems to have broken down. We will work to model a better way in how we treat each other in our many faith communities, even across religious and political lines. We will strive to create in our congregations safe and sacred spaces for common prayer and community discussion as we come together to seek God's will for our nation and our world.

(Updates with judge's comment in seventh paragraph.)
July 14 (Bloomberg) -- A U.S. district judge said she will review lawsuits against UBS AG by the liquidator of Bernard Madoff's firm, at least the fourth time a bank in the Madoff case gained access to a higher court.
Trustee Irving Picard sued UBS twice in bankruptcy court, demanding $2.6 billion and alleging the Zurich-based bank aided Madoff's fraud by setting up so-called feeder funds and agreeing "to look the other way" at irregularities. U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon in Manhattan, who is handling Picard's $19 billion suit against JPMorgan Chase & Co., said the UBS case raises similar issues of whether Picard has a right to sue for damages.
Her acceptance of the case, noted on a court docket today, is another challenge to Picard, who has filed 1,000 lawsuits seeking $100 billion for the Ponzi scheme's investors. HSBC Holdings Plc has asked U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff to dismiss a $9 billion suit against the U.K. bank and so-called feeder funds, arguing that Picard went far beyond his role as liquidator of the Madoff firm.
Rakoff also is considering whether the trustee had a right to use U.S. racketeering law in a $59 billion suit against UniCredit SpA, Bank Medici AG, its founder Sonja Kohn and dozens of Italian and Austrian parties.
While suits to recoup money taken out of a bankrupt firm are common, Picard is mostly suing for damages, using laws that banks say are open to question.
'Threshold Issues'
UBS, Switzerland's biggest bank, may not have got all it wanted, according to a July 12 letter to the judge from lawyer Marshall King. The bank challenged Picard's use of common law, as well as issues such as the trustee's standing to mount a type of class action on behalf of Madoff investors, he wrote.
"I am only interested in dealing with the threshold issues now -- SLUSA preemption and standing," McMahon wrote on the front of the letter, filed in court. "I don't want to deal with other issues."
SLUSA is the Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act, which governs class actions.
JPMorgan accused Picard of mounting a "back door" class action, and said he has no standing to sue on behalf of Madoff customers, because he was hired to liquidate the Madoff firm.
McMahon said in May that a bankruptcy judge isn't empowered to decide whether Picard has the right to sue New York-based JPMorgan on behalf of the con man's customers, and she would handle that case.
The case is Picard v. UBS AG, 11-cv-04213, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).
