The Dø – Both Ways Open Jaws
What's next for an artist after they propel their sometimes recklessly experimental début album to the top of a national chart? Back in 2008, Franco-Finnish art-pop duo The Dø achieved exactly that when their deeply flawed, but occasionally inspired, first album A Mouthful became the first English-language record by a French act to hit #1 in France. While Helsinki-born singer Olivia Merilahti and Paris multi-instrumentalist Dan Levy could so easily have sought to repeat their success with more of the same, they made the braver choice. Still as hooked on new and exciting sounds as before but also full of determination to make the best possible music, The Dø have spectacularly surpassed themselves with Both Ways Open Jaws – indeed, they have produced one of the most inventive, accomplished and engaging albums of the year.
It is a rare pleasure to see musicians take a quantum leap forwards in their capabilities, and rarer still to hear them make so big a jump as this: while A Mouthful squandered a solid build-up with a drab and miserable second side, Both Ways Open Jaws impresses with almost alarming consistency from front to back. That this is so even as The Dø veer from one experiment to another makes the achievement all the more impressive. If this dazzling second album takes a few listens to filter through, it is due in no small part to the the duo's incredible mobility in mood and style. Yet from funky pop to tender ballads by way of leftfield electro, Merilahti and Levy always remain foot-to-the-floor, eyes-open, wide-awake brilliant. There is simply no reason not to get swept up in this terrific set of songs.
Having thought carefully about pacing, The Dø begin proceedings on a subtle note. Built largely from a yearning vocal and a synthesizer 'Dust It Off' is a relatively minimalist introduction to the band's brave new sound world. Before long, however, the duo are bringing out their big guns, perhaps foremost amongst which is the deliriously entertaining single 'Too Insistent'. The deployment of a wonderfully understated Merilahti vocal ("what's so special about me," she protests, "I'm ordinary") backed up with strings, backing vocals and horns results in what is simply one of the finest pop products for some time. Completing a devastating one-two salvo, 'Bohemian Dances' benefits from both a phenomenal sense of rhythm and the Dø's great leap forward in terms of lyrics. Rescuing dancing from the vault of hackneyed old pop topics, Merilahti reassures a lover that as long as they keep moving "the answers are no longer far."
While the visceral conflict of 'Gonna Be Sick!' and the elegant whimsy of 'The Calender' further demonstrate The Dø's mastery of their brand of art-pop, other songs are less direct but every bit as accomplished. A single it may have been but 'Slippery Slope' is no straightforward chart missile – even on an album packed with superb drums and percussion its almost total focus on them is wonderfully executed and forms the ideal backdrop for a lyric about a world and a mind out of joint. 'The Wicked & The Blind' beguiles for a full five minutes with its syncopated groove and a set of lines seemingly sung from the perspective of an impoverished dictatorship trying to teach gratitude to its forcibly relocated citizens. Later, 'B.W.O.J.' sandwiches a mammoth, headbanging synth figure between a minimalist buildup and a dissociated finale of severed murmurings. So fantastic is this sudden pindrop moment that it all but erases the memory of 'Leo Leo', the lullaby which is a slight downer in the middle of the album.
Every inch a match for fellow Scandinavian songstresses Lykke Li and Robyn, Merilahti's irresistible personality is very often the element which drives these songs from greatness to near-perfection. But in Dan Levy the singer has a dexterous and inexhaustibly inventive collaborator whose multi-instrumentalism and ability to augment rather than overwhelm songs are crucial to the sound of Both Ways Open Jaws. The duo have admitted that at the time of A Mouthful, The Dø was essentially a side project to the work they pursued in film scoring. But with three years of touring under their belt, things have changed - this album is every inch the sound of two enormous talents focused absolutely on creating the best pop music they can. Where The Dø go next we can only dream, but in the meantime Both Ways Open Jaws is something almost peerless in the 2011 canon, and an essential listen for lovers of music everywhere.

Since 1991 Earth and their commander-in-chief Dylan Carlson have been regarded by many as pioneers of drone/experimental guitar-based instrumentalism. This latest release was recorded during the same sessions as its 2011 companion piece Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light I and continues to cement their evolution from the voluminous, ear-crushing doomscapes of their pre-hiatus work towards a more restrained and dexterous Jazz/Americana infused sound.

It has been fairly well documented that in November 2009 Darren Hayman was badly beaten up whilst on a short tour of the UK, and he suffered a fractured skull and a period in hospital as a result.

G.O.O.D. Music's Big Sean recently spoke on MTV's "Hottest MC's in the Game" list and said he can completely understand why some hip-hop artists felt a certain way about not coming out on top.
Although he applauded West Coast rapper Kendrick Lamar for crushing the annual list at number one, Sean said he still feels elite and plans to prove he's chart-topping material.
"[Pusha T] be spitting too," Sean said in an interview. "Pusha, you know, where was he at? He set off 'Don't Like,' he was on 'Mercy.' He's a real competitive dude just like we all are, man, so I feel I should of, everybody, if you don't feel you should have been number one, then I don't know what the f*ck you're doing this for. I feel I'm the best emcee, I'ma prove myself. I've got a lot to prove. And that's what makes it fun. I always say, like, who are at the top of game, 2 Chainz, he's been doing it for a long a** time. Lil Wayne, it took Wayne [some time]. The Carter wasn't his first album. 500 Degreez was his first album and it took all these different levels of successes and different plateaus." (Semtex TV)
Sean's rap mentor Kanye West lashed out at ranking number seven on the list last week.
However, when it came to his spot on the list, Kanye said, "I feel like in order for them to put me at #7, they had to bring up things they didn't like — like the Cruel Summer album." He then suggested that his critics prefer the backpack-and-polo-era Kanye over his current career choices. "They don't like Givenchy Kanye, they don't like Kanye in a kilt, they don't like Kanye in a relationship." Kanye also boasted about the bar in "Cold" in which he raps about Kim Kardashian's ex-husband, Kris Humphries. "I said, 'Lucky I ain't have Jay drop him from the team' — ain't no bar of the entire past 12 months hotter than that one bar." (Consequence of Sound)
A few days ago, Brooklyn rapper Fabolous reacted to Kanye West's rant about his placement on the list.
Loso said he thinks the "Hottest MCs" discussion is a great thing and likened the yearly debate to "barbershop talk." He also finds the subsequent reactions entertaining, especially Kanye West's protest of his #7 spot and his revelation that he once gifted "Hottest MCs" moderator Sway Calloway with a television set. "Kanye's was hilarious; when he brought up the TV, that was hilarious," Fab said with a chuckle. Fab didn't offer much in the way of debate, but spoke in support of this year's "Hottest MC" Kendrick Lamar. "I think Kendrick had a great year, I think he's a talent, I think he's a dope artist, I think he brings a unique sound. His album was a sonic body of work." (MTV)
This week, MTV released an honorable mentions list of three emcees who did not make it into this year's "Hottest" rundown.
With the 2013 edition of MTV's "Hottest MC's" in the game finally concluded, MTV felt it was time to give notoriety to three artist that didn't make the cut. First up was Jay-Z who's a former number 1 hottest emcee opened the Barclays Center in a 8-night concert series, but didn't release any new solo music during 2012 with only features. Nicki Minaj also a former top emcee, became a superstar in 2012 with becoming the next host on American Idol, but according to their criteria, she was quiet during the year. Capping off the clip was Lil' Wayne, who like Jiggaman is also a former top emcee didn't release any a project in 2012, with Sway saying after his "I Am Not A Human Being II" release; he'll be right back at the forefront of their list.

Need I say more? You must try these. They are calling your name. And they're a delicious addition to your holiday cookie tray, or an easy gift for a friend or neighbor.

We had company for dinner the other night and I ran out of time to fix dessert. People expect dessert when they come to my house. I take it as a compliment, but sometimes it can be a stretch to squeeze it into my meal plan with all of the things going on in my family, not to mention the hustle and bustle of the upcoming holidays. So I came up with these delicious Chocolate Gingerbread Bars that start with a box of Hodgson Mill Whole Wheat Gingerbread Mix. Read More »
Several years ago, I volunteered to make the Thanksgiving pies for my husband's large, extended-family gathering. All of the greats and grandparents, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and second cousins come from far and wide to spend Thanksgiving together. It's a day filled with lots of laughter, good food and that 'you're a part of a great family' feeling. The food is very important and hasn't changed much since I married into the clan 16 years ago. Cherry pie has always been on the dessert table as well as pumpkin. Read More »
Apple picking in the fall is one of our favorite family traditions. The first weekend that the apples are ripe and ready, we head out to the orchard. The fun begins with an old-fashioned, tractor-pulled wagon ride. Then it's time to pick. The kids hunt high and low for the perfect apples. My husband takes turns hoisting the kids up on his shoulders to reach for the apples that are way up in the tree. Those are always the best. Once we have picked as many apples as we can carry, and then some, we head back home. As we're driving, we can almost taste all of the wonderful apple recipes we'll want to make when we get home.

I hope all ATI fans arnt as ignorant as you. Crysis DX9 was what most people ran because Vista was a bloated cow for any gaming. So we all ran it on XP DX9, i've read up on how their engine does its rendering. If i heard unoptimized about it..your just a fucking retard. Farcry 1, crysis 1 all raped the H/W it was played on because it pushed the envelope of gaming on PC for YEAR to come.

Good performance compared to the original Crysis. #5 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply bumnut + 1362d ago Bad console port imo, it even says press start when the game loads up! 3 graphics options low, medium & high (with different names) only 6 vs 6 (crysis wars was 16 vs 16) I thought crytek said the pc version would not suffer because it is also on consoles. I hope the full game has more options #6 (Edited 1362d ago ) | Agree(2) | Disagree(6) | Report | Reply Kakkoii + 1362d ago Sigh... there is no "port"ing going on here. The only reason it says press Start is because they didn't bother changing the graphic on that part for the PC demo. And most PC gamers know what press start means, usually meaning press Enter. The engine isn't built for one console or another. It's built for all 3, the PC, PS3 and 360. You build the assets and engine on the PC, at PC graphics level. Then it compiles the game out for the consoles based on sets of restrictions and varying instruction sets. NO PORTING AT ALL. #6.1 Agree(4) | Disagree(4) | Report | Reply enkeixpress + 1362d ago Planning on buying an Alienware m17x laptop (£1,399) just for this game.. as well as for the first Crysis.

The Intel Core i7 hyper threading will kick in and push the CPU to 2.0 ghz.

HD 4870 is DX10 and old. The voltage is low due to it being a laptop thus so many limiting factors come into play on the GPU side as far as it reaching it's full potential.

This review was done minus AA and AF maybe with some other graphical features turned off. Plus it dam sure wasn't DX11 mode because the 8800gt and 260 GTX are DX10. These numbers seem too high cause Metro 2033 brings GPU's to their knees. Turn DOF on and it breaks them down to their ankles. I will wait for Hardware Canucks to do a review using MAX setting everything on 8xAA 16xAF DX11 mode as i don't trust benchmarks from card makers, especially Nvidia. #15 (Edited 1362d ago ) | Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply MegaMohsi + 1362d ago Metro 2033 was also notorious for its poor coding and optimization. Since it is the beta I do assume that a few of the graphical features were unavailable so I think the numbers may be a bit skewed. I definitely don't expect to play this game maxed out but if i can play hardcore at 1920x1080 with 30fps avg with no AA, I'll be happy with it. #15.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply DigitalPiracy + 1362d ago Well I just tried it out. Looks okay but not as good as Crysis IMO. The smaller environments aren't as impressive and some of the textures are atrocious. Runs at a solid 60fps on hardcore with an HD6970 and i7 950.

Galamirix said:
If you guys own a PS3, I suggest waiting. Since Tales of Grace is getting a BETTER PS3 port. Just like what they did with Tales of Vesperia. But, whether or not BandaiNamco will bring over the better ports is another question, since they didn't with Vesperia.
Son Ninja said:
@ Galamirix It's likely Namco Bandai is not going to bother bringing the better versions to stateside anyways. It's not just Vesperia, even back in the old days, better versions of Tales games like Phantasia, Symphonia, and Rebirth are also not released stateside. Though with PS3 you can still play Vesperia and Graces by import since it's region free, just not English translated.

In Washington, pot business applications surpass 3,000
Applications for marijuana business licenses are far in excess of the number the state will approve.
Seattle Times staff reporter
After a big surge over the last week, Washington state has now received applications for 3,746 marijuana business licenses.
While some applicants are likely to be eliminated by residency requirements, background checks and improper locations, Washington state appears bullish about the legal marijuana business.
The 30-day window to apply for growing, processing and retail licenses closed on Dec. 20. But data released Tuesday by the state Liquor Control Board is not the final tally, as not all applications have been processed.
Growers have applied for licenses in 38 of 39 counties, with only tiny Garfield County (pop. 2,266 in 2010 census) not in the game. Applications for retail stores in cities such as Seattle, Tacoma and Vancouver far exceed the number of state-allocated retail shops allocated to those cities.
In all, entrepreneurs have applied for 867 retail licenses. The state allocated a total of 334 retail licenses.
Seattle would get just 21 retail shops under state rules. But entrepreneurs have filed 145 retail applications for Seattle. Some of those won't pan out, like the applicant who listed the Central Library's address for a shop. Stores must be stand-alone businesses, and no pot businesses can be within 1,000 feet of venues frequented by youth, including libraries.
Still, Seattle will likely have more qualified retail applicants than allotted stores. If that occurs, the state will conduct a lottery to determine winners.
City Attorney Pete Holmes has urged state officials to allow more stores in Seattle.
Other cities, including Tacoma and Vancouver, appear headed for retail lotteries. Vancouver has 55 applications for six stores; Tacoma has 46 for eight.
Overall, producer or grower applications were the most popular with 1,670 applications. Processing was next with 1,209 applications.
There are no limits on the number of growers the state will license. But the state plans to license 2 million square feet for farms — and looks to have a glut of growers.
Growing licenses are divided into three tiers based on size, with the smallest farms occupying a maximum of 2,000 square feet, and the largest farms capped at 30,000 square feet.
If all applicants were approved and used their maximum licensed space the state would have more than 25 million square feet of pot farms. If all applicants hit the midpoint of what they're allowed, the total square footage of licensed farms would be 12 million square feet.
If the state exceeds its 2 million square-foot goal, all growing licenses would be reduced by proportionate amounts to reach that total.
The robust growing applications suggest the state's supply of weed will meet projected demand in 2014.
State investigators plan to evaluate growing licenses first, so crops can be started as soon as possible in hopes of supplying retail stores by May.

Night Dreams WinnersBefore I announce the winners, its has been brought to my attention that some of you have been pestering your watchers to vote for you.. THIS IS NOT FAIR..These Contests are for our members only! Not for all of Deviantart.. Especially the voting process!! When we do the "note voting" I try to check to see if those I'm receiving a note from are really members.. (sometimes that is impossible with 33 notes a day) What I really do NOT like is when you ask your watchers to vote on OUR polls because unfortunately.. you do not have to be a member to vote in our polls and I have no way of see who is voting... I want these contests to be fair to everyone in our Group.. therefore in future contests.. anyone caught trying to get their watchers to vote for them will be automatically disqualified from our contest.Now Here are your Winners!!:iconsparklesplz::iconsparklylaplz:First Place:iconsparklylaplz::iconsparklesplz::iconsopic84:Sophia-MwithF

Muro for *Membership FAQ and Answers! Hey everyone! So that little contest thing I did earlier really got me thinking, and I decided to have this be a regular event. This is the initial welcoming journal that explains what this is, and this blog will be turned into the FAQ for it. Anyway, introducing the newest monthly contest, "Muro for *Membership" a chance for all deviants to earn one month premium memberships, by making a muro drawing based off of a minimum two of five provided themes. What is unique about this contest, is that it won't be judged based off of quality or creativity, but instead each deviant that creates a qualified Muro drawing will be given a number, and then that number is put into a random number generator. So each person has a chance to win, regardless of skills or creativity. Each month, two deviants will be selected to win a one month premium membership, and it is open to every member of the community.Muro for *Memberships run from the 15th through the 20th of each month.What is

Sub-Saharan Africa has received tens of billions of dollars in foreign aid over the last fifty years yet economic development has remained elusive. In many countries absolute poverty has increased and life expectancy has declined.
In this short video Karol Boudreaux discusses Paths to Property, a book written by her and Paul Aligica arguing that the results of traditional approaches to development policy have been disappointing. Instead, the focus needs to be on the adoption of sound political and legal institutions. In particular, clearly defined and enforced private property rights are needed to encourage entrepreneurship and economic growth. However, institutional environments in Africa are both complex and challenging, and the creation of secure property rights is far from a straightforward process.

Joe Klein Desperate to Change Debate From Obama's Foreign Policy Failures
As our embassies burn and our foreign officers are being murdered overseas, TIME Magazine's Joe Klein is desperate to change the current narrative of Obama's major failures in the Middle East. So, in his latest piece, Klein wants to go back to talking about Mitt Romney's Massachusetts healthcare policies.
Who can blame Klein for trying this? After all, from the Obama-loving media's perspective talking about Mitt Romney's garbled healthcare positions is a better plan than talking about Obama telling Egypt they aren't our ally, Obama skipping all his intelligence briefings so he can go golfing and attend fundraisers, and his administration's utter failure to detect the coordinated attacks that were perpetrated against our embassies and foreign service personnel in the Middle East on Sept. 11 and 12.
But what makes Klein's "The Mitt Mirage" so laughable is his blindly partisan assertions that the Democrat national convention was "extremely successful." This is a silly claim that even many of his own compadres in the Old Media establishment can't force themselves to say.
His unserious appraisal of the Democrat convention proves once again that he can be considered nothing but an outright propagandist. Just look at the spin in this paragraph:
Romney's health gaffe came at a moment of peril for his candidacy. His party's convention had failed to lift him and would be remembered eternally for Clint Eastwood's empty chair. The Democratic convention, by contrast, had been extremely successful, even if Obama's speech wasn't. Indeed, the Obama people seem to have a far more sophisticated sense of how to run a campaign than the Romney people do.
First of all, Clint Eastwood's speech was successful in what he aimed to do and that was appeal to the average person. A Surevey USA poll of 754 registered Florida voters saw 22 percent switching from undecided or from Obama to Romney the very night of Eastwood's presentation. If he was so bad, how could that have happened? Further his speech has more Youtube views than any other speech of either convention, including that of the President's.
Secondly, the Democrat convention was not even hailed as a great success by Klein's own media fellows. Immediately after Obama's speech a whole raft of Old Media mavens expressed their disappointment at the whole affair, especially Obama's rehashed speech. The Dem. convention was one great drive for the base alone and, quite unlike the GOP convention, made no effort whatever to aim its message to the undecideds, moderates or crossover voters. It was an affair for extremists alone. No moderates need apply.
Of course, that is why Klein liked it. It was an extremist's party.
Then Klein went on to concede that Romney may still win the election. Why? Because "the economy could tank."
Seriously? "Could"? Joe, the economy HAS tanked. There is no "could" about it.
Amusingly, one of Klein's final pronouncements is that Romney won't do well in debates with Obama because Romney "has never once stood up to the party's extremist base."
But has Obama ever stood up to his extremist base? No. And the reason for that is because Obama is an extremist He is 100 percent pro-infanticide, stands against Israel, is anti-business, anti-military, and has a desire to manage America's decline as a punishment for her success as a world leader. After all, "You didn't build that." You can't get more extreme than that.
Joe Klein is an unserious, partisan hack.

Griffin Technology has posted details about its upcoming iTalk Voice Recorder for iPod. The iTalk mounts to iPod via the headphone port and can record seminars, meetings, classes, notes in your car, songs, etc. - up to 100 feet away. "Its built in microphone was designed to record crystal clear audio and iTalk's Automatic Gain Control assures you have the best possible signal level recorded. You can even connect an external microphone directly to iTalk for even more recording options. iTalk includes a pass-through headphone jack that allows you to monitor your voice recording, or simply listen to your music without having to remove iTalk again. You can also download your recordings to your computer to play back, but iTalk's speaker is so good you may not have to." Griffin is expecting to ship the iTalk in April 2004 for $34.99.

Posted by Luxo on January 6, 2004 at 7:39 PM (CST)
is the iTalk Stero or Mono? What abou the external mic thing?
Posted by Bobby Sakaki on January 7, 2004 at 6:01 PM (CST)
It has to be Mono because the headphone input only allows mono, the bottom connector could provide stereo, but no one has come out with a mic for it yet.
I don't understand the hundered feet away claim. It seems that if the sound is loud and far away you would still catch it, and if it was soft you would not. So I don't believe that this mic will record a pin dropping 2 feet away, just like I don't believe it could miss a rocket taking off 1 mile away. it just seems like marketing hype.

The iTalk web page indicates shipping in mid-April, which is now. Has anyone heard any details on a real shipping date?

From the 08-2010 issue of BurdaStyle magazine, petite jacket has V neckline, standing collar, and shaped front hem. The jacket is made of lambswool, the lining is a heavyweight silk/rayon satin. I made this to go with a purple, pink, and green wardrobe for a trip to Turkey. The project is blogged with more details here.

I love the contrast between the jacket and the lining. I agree with dabura, I prefer your version over the original.
Nov 20, 2010, 04.21 PMby prettysewinggirl
Well done, its beautiful! Enjoy!
Nov 20, 2010, 03.54 PMby dabura
