Competition watchdog seeks NBN forecast data
The ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission) is setting itself the task of analysing the revenue forecasts for Australia's National Broadband Network (NBN), and has written to NBN Co requesting the release of a bunch of data to help. The request is in this letter, (PDF) and is part of the ongoing debate over NBN Co' …
NBNCo plan to grow ARPU steeply
It might just be possible that the ACCC have actually read the NBNCo Corporate Plan and investigated the projections.
Have a read of the NBNCo Corporate Plan and see how many times the plan mentions strategies to drive up average revenue per user (ARPU). I don't expect wholesale prices to rise, but the pace at which prices fall will be significantly less than the growth rate in usage. Please don't take my word for it, instead go and read the NBNCo Corporate Plan.
Plans for AVC pricing are outlined on page 67:
* 1000/400Mbps falls from $150 to $90, while the average speed grows from 30Mbps to 230Mbps.
* Price falls by 40% while average speed grows by 760%
Plans for CVC pricing are outlined on page 67:
* Starts at $20Mbps/Month when the average data usage is 30GB/Month and falls to $8Mbps/Month when the average data usage is 540GB/month.
* Price falls by 2.5 times, while the average data usage grows by 18 times = growth in revenue from CVC of 720% when accounting for price falls.
The saddest part of the NBNCo debate is that those people who consider themselves informed have been blinded by "fast internet" bright lights and don't actually understand what the government is planning. Worse than prices rises is the fact that NBNCo are building a fibre network, while at the same time predicting that 50% will connect at 12/1Mbps.
Re: NBNCo plan to grow ARPU steeply
"Worse than prices rises is the fact that NBNCo are building a fibre network, while at the same time predicting that 50% will connect at 12/1Mbps."
What's worse is that 90% of customers could be immediately (within 2 years) serviced by 100Mbit/100Mbit VDSL2, with fiber hooked up on an at request/need basis, ala Google Fiber.
Instead we have a decade of infrastructure stagnation for the majority of customers who sit on obsolete and abandoned ADSL/Cable and are not connected to NBN fiber. Meanwhile Labor delays the build out as it tries to massage the expenditure numbers in the budget.

The United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon is shocked and saddened by the many lives lost in a bomb attack at a bus station in the Nyanyan neighbourhood, close to the Nigerian capital Abuja.
This is contained in a statement by the UN.
Ki-moon, who strongly condemned all such indiscriminate killings and acts of violent extremism, said "The perpetrators of this attack, and those responsible for the continuing brutal attacks in the northeast of the country, must be brought to justice."
In same vein, President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor has also condemned the attack describing it as inhuman, ungodly and barbaric.
He also commended security agencies for the efforts they have displayed against the menace if Boko Haram Islamic sect but suggested that the fifth columnists among them should be fished out and dismissed.
Oritsejafor in a statement personally signed by him also sympathized with the families of those who lost their lives saying "God will not forsake them."
The statement reads:
"I completely condemned the bomb attack on a motor park in Nyanya, a satellite community on the outskirts of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. This is very inhuman, ungodly and barbaric. I don't even have the adjectives to describe what these mad people have done. As far as I am concerned, the perpetrators are not human beings and in my own opinion, when they finally die their corpses should be given to pigs because they are on the same level with pigs.
"How do you do this kind of thing to human beings? So definitely, they cannot be humans. It is so unfortunate. To make it worse, there are people who are sponsoring them. As the judgment of God comes upon them, the judgment if God will also come on those who are sponsoring them. Anybody who has given N1:00 (One Naira) to these people, whether they are local people or foreign financiers, the same judgment will come upon them and their children. They will not escape it. So those are my words.
"I sympathise with families who have lost their beloved ones. What else can I say to them than it is well. God is still God, He knows before it happens. I pray that He will comfort them and bring them out of this unbelievable tragedy. God will not forsake them. For those who are injured and still alive, may God give them speedy recovery.
"I also say that God will not foresake Nigeria; we will come out of this problem. There is enough prayer that is going up everyday which I believe will make a difference in this nation. Nigerians should be encouraged.
"We will continue to appeal to government, especially the security agencies to work together and share intelligence. In know they are trying, I am not one of those that will condemn security agencies because if they have not been doing anything, it would have been worse than what we are seeing today.
"But they should be able to share intelligence and be able to find those among them that are sabotaging their efforts. There are people within the security agencies that sympathize with this madness. As they discover them, they should be exposed and dismissed from the service. It is very important that such will still happen."

There is a major new progressive movement afoot... but whether Kentucky's progressives speak up to help shape it remains to be seen.
Rebuild the Dream is a new movement born of the realization in Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, and elsewhere that the American Dream is being attacked and apathy is no longer an option. Millions of people are coming together to save it.
Numerous organizations have come out in support of the movement including MoveOn.org, the AFL-CIO, Color of Change, the League of Young Voters, the Congressional Progressive Caucus, Change to Win, Faithful America, AFSCME, AARP, the American Federation of Teachers, Campus Progress, Common Cause, Democracy for America, the Center for Media and Democracy, Democrats.com, the Daily Kos, Jobs with Justice, Living Liberally, Media Matters, the NAACP, the National Council of La Raza, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Organizing for America, PCCC, Public Citizen, US Action, US Uncut, and dozens of other organizations.
There are three things Kentuckians can do to get involved and more are on the way.
Van Jones (remember Van Jones -- he was savagely maligned by Glenn Beck and forced to leave the Obama administration) is a key point person in this movement and his introduction is quite compelling.
Full Disclosure: The author is a volunteer organizer for MoveOn.org.

"You know how when you watch anime and they have a little nudity, you think "Why can't there be more porn in this show?" Then you watch hentai, and you think "Why can't the story be better?" I just saw Hanaukyo Maids, and I don't know whether to jack off or watch politely."a.k.a.: Hanaukyo Maid Team, Maid in HanaukyoTaro Hanaukyo, a young boy grieving for his mother, has been summoned to his grandfather's estate for reasons unknown. Upon arrival, he discovers several facts that are to change his life drastically.1. His grandfather is rich. Obscenely rich. Richie Rich rich.2. His grandfather has retired and left the entire estate in his name.3. The entire estate staff consists of hundreds of attractive young women in maid uniforms.It is that last point that that really causes some concern for poor Taro, as it is rapidly demonstrated to the viewer that he has a violent allergic reaction to contact from women. Unfortunately for him, the young ladies of the Hanaukyo estate are zealously dedicated to their job, be it organizing his schedule, assisting his studies, bathing with him in the dozens, assisting him with his zipper in the washroom....Fortunately, there is also Mariel, the de facto head maid and apparently, the only woman Taro can be near without turning interesting colours.Originally a manga in 14 volumes made by Morishige 2000-2006 it was adapted into a anime series first time in 2001. The series however was cut short due to difficulties with the production company. Only twelve episodes were aired out of a planned eighteen, and only three more were made and included on the DVD release. It was rebooted in a second series, Hanaukyo Maid Tai: La Verite in 2004. In this series, Taro is merely put off by too much attention from women, though Mariel remains the exception. It also introduces a dramatic plot line from the manga around Mariel, and formally introduces Yashima Sanaenote and her strong loyalty to Konoe Tsurugi, head of the Security division of the maids.To repeat: the entire house staff are maids.Note: If an episode number below doesn't mention which season it's from, it's the first. If it's from the second season it will say La Verite.

With the Minnesota Fringe Festival preparing to take over Twin Cities stages in early August, local theater lovers are hungry for their annual gorging of eclectic new works. Those on the lookout for a suitable appetizer would be well advised to check out Savage Umbrella's multidisciplinary Night of New Works. Over the last two weekends of July, the reliably innovative organization is putting forth three original productions crafted by company members. A Gamer's Guide to the 5 Stages of Grief, by playwright Russell Dugger, blurs the distinction between organic and artificial realities, examining the increasing inclination to use the latter to escape from the former. Composer Candace Bilyk similarly looks beyond everyday existence, drawing operatic inspiration from The Golden Carp, a fantastical tale of a fairy's legendary love for the titular mystical creature. Rounding out the selections, playwright/director Christina Lein contemplates the uneasy influence of politics on policy in the arena of public education, using interpretive dance to express an ongoing tension in the topically charged Stop! While the three featured works differ drastically in style and theme, they are united as representations of the wildly diverse talents emerging in our own backyard. Brought together for this singular Night of New Works, the three productions offer a copious feast that should leave even the most famished theatergoer feeling thoroughly satiated.

Of all the yoga teacher training courses that I attended in my entire life, this one at the Himalaya Yoga Academy is the most impressive. Not only I left the course with a massive amount of new and useful knowledge, but having spent 5 weeks in a healthy supportive environment realized myself as a professional yoga instructor. Our teachers wholeheartedly taught us all that they knew and experienced. Although we rarely used a chair in a class, we felt this academic atmosphere all over. A true academy it was! My rating is 12 out of 10. Sign up now and think no more about any other yoga training program!

Traditional yoga teacher training courses in Rishikesh, India
Why learn yoga in Rishikesh with us? There are many reasons to learn yoga specifically in Rishikesh, India. And, there are solid reasons to do it with our school.
It is a common fact that Rishikesh (India) holds the title of the world's yoga capital. And it is rightfully so.
One of our principles has always been to keep the tradition of Yoga uninterrupted. In our teaching, we strongly abide by the classical vision of yoga clearly described by the great work on yoga, Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, and old scriptures of hatha yoga – Gheranda Samhita, Shiv Samhita and Hatha Yoga Pradipika. Our deep commitment towards the great works of the past does not contradict with the modern approach to yoga. On the contrary, we highly honor modern authors, researchers, scholars, masters who move the understanding of traditional hatha yoga even further through their extensive studies, and encourage our students to be creative in their practice of yoga as long as the correct understanding of its genuine goals is preserved.
We are proud to be the only yoga school in Rishikesh, India to have so many highly-educated yoga teachers. Teachers in our school are holders of Master's degree in Yoga and Applied Ayurveda, or have been living and studying in ashrams or with the best yoga, meditation and ayurveda teachers in India. Moreover, we are proud to have Masters who have developed their own style and methodologies in yoga and meditation, as our honored teachers.
Since our start in 1997, we did a tremendous number of yoga trainings which brought us drastic experience and understanding of how a yoga program should really be built. Today, we are proud to claim that our yoga training program is the most advanced training course program in the world's yoga capital and, maybe, in the whole India. See our programs for more details and read students' testimonials.
Funny to say, Rishikesh today is, perhaps, the cheapest place in the world to undergo yoga training program. Keep in mind, our training program is not of the lowest rate in Rishikesh. Yet, considering the value, it's probably way below average cost at the global scale.
Swargashram is the oldest ashram in Rishikesh, the precedent of such popular ashrams as Shivananda ashram, Yog Niketan, Parmarth and others. Swargashram is the ashram from where the whole Hrishikesh started. And, we are sitting in the very center of this holy place.
See our list of invited teachers that participate in our yoga courses. Among our guests are the 105-year-old yogi Swami Yogananda Ji, the renowned master of hatha yoga Sri Surinder Singh Ji, the famous speaker and philosopher Jivasu, the honored philosophy professor Buddhi Prakash Ji and many more recognized yogis of the Northern India.
Yoga mats, cushions, bricks, bolsters, whiteboards, big screen for visual presentations, sound system, 4 modes of lighting, shatkarma props, water filter, meditation props, etc.
We know all yoga in Rishikesh, we know perfectly every yoga teacher in Rishikesh. We surely can tell who teaches best at any specific style of yoga in the world capital of yoga. For our festival and for our yoga courses, we chose only the best yoga teachers of Rishikesh so that you don't have to.


text: Sessions Urges Congress to Halt Comprehensive Immigration Reform Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 25 Nov 2013 post a comment On Monday, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) called on Congress to reject the pieces of a comprehensive immigration reform bill and the pathway to citizenship that President Barack Obama and a narrow group of his big-business allies want to force on Americans, saying a few connected elites do not get to dictate immigration policy for the nation. He emphasized that no immigration reform agreement should be agreed upon so long as the borders are not secure and during a time in which many American citizens are looking for work. "America is not an oligarchy," Sessions said in a statement before Obama was set to address San Francisco on immigration reform. "Congressional leaders must forcefully reject the notion, evidently accepted by the President, that a small cadre of CEOs can tailor the nation's entire immigration policy to suit their narrow interests. A Republic must answer to the people." Sessions, who has staunchly opposed the immigration reform legislation that passed the Senate and has painstakingly unearthed many of the bill's flaws, said "House leaders must lay out clearly to the American people the President's dismal record on immigration." He emphasized that Obama has "systematically dismantled interior enforcement, handcuffing immigration officers and bypassing Congress." He said "these facts—drawn from the testimony from immigration officers themselves—should be clearly documented before the whole nation," and "no agreement should be entered into while such lawlessness continues." Last week, Obama said he would be fine with comprehensive immigration reform being broken up into pieces, so long as all the pieces are passed. House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) said immigration reform was "absolutely not" dead, and Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) also said that his "Republican friends" have assured him that they want to pass comprehensive immigration reform in everything but name only. Sessions warned the House to "be on alert" for a creative way in which immigration reform can be jammed through Congress. In addition, Sessions focused on the devastating impact immigration reform legislation will have on working class Americans of all backgrounds, which is a Congressional Budget Office determination that Sessions has always emphasized while sticking up for the interests of American workers. He said Obama "must be asked—by media and lawmakers alike—how he can possibly justify a plan that will double the flow of immigrant workers at a time when 91.5 million Americans are outside the labor force?" "Indeed, as the President makes his immigration remarks he is preparing to hold a fundraiser with Silicon Valley executives, a group clamoring for more guest workers at a time when nearly half of recent college grads are underemployed," he said. "Wages are flat and falling for U.S. workers—the clearest evidence that there is not a labor shortage, but a jobs shortage." Obama traveled to San Francisco, which is a sanctuary city and home to the CA assemblyman who introduced the bill that California Gov. Jerry Brown signed to make the state a sanctuary state for many illegal immigrants who have not committed violent felonies. He will try to gin up pressure for immigration reform at a time when journalists have been outnumbering activists at many prominent immigration reform rallies.

The president of the University of Texas College Republicans wrote an offensive tweet about President Barack Obama, creating a media firestorm. This may seem like a rerun of news from a month ago, but as Dave Doolittle of the Austin American-Statesman reported (after the progressive blog Burnt Orange Report broke the story), the following message came from the account of the newest UT College Republicans president, Cassandra Wright, ( @cassienwright) at 2:46 am on Sunday:
Perhaps offensive tweets about President Barack Obama an occupational hazard for this position. In November, then-president Lauren Pierce became an Internet celebrity after responding to the arrest of White House shooting suspect Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez with the following tweet:
"Y'all as tempting as it may be, don't shoot Obama. We need him to go down in history as the WORST president we've EVER had! #2012."
Pierce eventually apologized—though she initially told the Texas Tribune she wouldn't —and apparently lost her position as an intern for David Dewhurst's campaign.
At the time, Gregory J. Krieg of ABC News's The Note blog spoke to Wright, then the organization's vice president, who told Krieg, "I don't really see anything wrong with it."
Since the story broke, Wright, who became president on December 3, has protected her Twitter account, though her Facebook settings as of Tuesday morning allowed anyone to see her profile photo album , which includes shots of her with Karl Rove and Michelle Malkin.
KVUE in Austin spoke to her grandmother in San Antonio, who told them "this does not sound like her granddaughter." The station's story also offered the following insight:
A Republican insider told KVUE that sources close to Cassie Wright believe that she may have gotten the idea for the Tweet from a rap song by an artist called Young Jeezy. His song called "My President is Black" does not mention anything about crack cocaine nor does it say anything about President Obama doing drugs.
(On top of that, as "MH," a commenter at the Alcalde pointed out , "You can't even snort crack.")
The Statesman's Doolittle also noted that Pierce retweeted Wright's offending message, but that retweet has since been removed.
What none of the media outlets covering the story seem to have picked up on is that, judging by their respective Twitter streams, both women (and at least one other friend) spent the entire weekend in New Orleans. And of course, the tweet was sent at 2:46 am on Sunday morning, i.e., Saturday night. In New Orleans . So if it's too much to ask that Pierce and Wright don't undergo some sort of sensitivity training, perhaps they can remind each other "Friends don't let friends tweet drunk"?
On Monday night, UT College Republicans spokesman Cesar Villareal emailed a statement to The Daily Texan :
The UT College Republicans neither condones any 'tweeted' remarks, nor any statements made by any member of our organization that may be hurtful and lacking in sensitivity. The opinion of our President Wright is that of her own not in keeping with our core values, our standards, and our code of conduct. While some within our organization may not respect the current President, UT College Republicans does respect the office of the President of the United States.
And finally, a few Twitter reactions via Storify:

The soaring demands of mobile data present huge challenges for telecom operators. Their networks, which are expensive to deploy and manage, are constrained by limited spectrum, which can often lead to inadequate coverage and performance. To address this issue, Devicescape has created an entirely new kind of network platform—the Devicescape Service Platform—that is global in scope and orders of magnitude cheaper than current alternatives. The platform—which is fully software based, stringently managed for quality, massive (with more than 20 million amenity Wi-Fi locations), and fast growing—enables a variety of unparalleled services at unmatched operating costs.
We live in an increasingly ubiquitously connected world. We are surrounded by intelligent electronics that provide us with access to an ever-expanding range of services. Simplistic, single-function, standalone black boxes have been replaced with vibrant service-enabled devices that derive their value from internet-based content and applications—and from their interactions with each other. At Devicescape, we refer to this image as the devicescape, and this vision shapes our mission and fuels our passion.
Of course, a connected world demands a network, and a service-enabled device needs a connection mechanism. Devicescape believes that Wi-Fi has a critical role to play in this, as a widely deployed, high-performance, low-cost technology that is ideal for mass connectivity. And so we began the company with the goal of harnessing Wi-Fi to mediate among devices, the network, and services.
Our history begins with devices—enabling the world's most innovative electronics companies to create outstanding products with secure, high-performance, and easy-to-use Wi-Fi. Our products initially powered enterprise and home connectivity for hundreds of millions of handsets, PCs, game systems, and consumer and office electronics at companies like Motorola, HP, Nokia, BlackBerry, Intel, Nintendo, Samsung, NEC, and Brother. Later, as Wi-Fi migrated into public spaces, we began work on mobile connectivity, using public Wi-Fi and in particular embracing the concept of Adaptive Network Selection and an "always best connected" experience.
Originally focused on developing Wi-Fi software for a plethora of internet-enabled consumer devices, Devicescape today builds on more than a decade of experience in magnifying mobile network capabilities and elevating the mobile experience. At the heart of all this expertise in Wi-Fi, mobile, and virtualization is the Devicescape-inspired approach of curation. In the wireless network context, curation is the art of carefully discovering, qualifying, and preserving both the best network to connect to at the best time and an "über-net" of high-quality amenity Wi-Fi hotspots that take the "always best connected" user experience to the next level.
Devicescape created the concept of the Curated Virtual Network. The CVN is a massive global network formed from the millions of small Wi-Fi networks already deployed in our public spaces, typically as an amenity for customers and citizens. Through our patented curation processes, we discover and constantly evaluate the capability of each network location, filtering the best down into a high-quality subset that acts as a single virtual network. The CVN leverages the best qualities of Wi-Fi—cost, ubiquity, performance—to provide a huge network with unparalleled characteristics for devices and the services they provide.
Mobile devices are defined by their network connection. Recently, with the explosion of smartphones and tablets and with soaring demand for media-intensive services, operators and other service providers have adopted a variety of strategies for managing the huge growth in data consumption. A key strategy is the integration of Wi-Fi into the overall network to help expand capacity-reach. The Devicescape Service Platform, with or without the CVN, is designed to help operators and other service providers perform Adaptive Network Selection—to choose the best network for the task, whether it's the mobile network, their own Wi-Fi network, a partner Wi-Fi network, or the Devicescape CVN. This defines the future of Devicescape, as we continue to expand our leadership in Wi-Fi while expanding its complementary relationship with other connection methodologies.

NEW YORK (AP) — It wasn't too long ago that America had a love affair with soda. Now, an old flame — water — has the country's heart.
For more than two decades, soda was the No. 1 drink in the U.S. with per capita consumption peaking in 1998 at 54 gallons a year, according industry tracker Beverage Digest. Americans drank just 42 gallons a year of water at the time.
But over the years, as soda increasingly came under fire for fueling the nation's rising obesity rates, water quietly trickled into the top spot.
Americans now drink an average of 44 gallons of soda a year, a 17 percent drop from the peak in 1998. Over the same time, the average amount of water people drink has increased 38 percent to about 58 gallons a year. Bottled water has led that growth, with consumption nearly doubling to 21 gallons a year.
The trend reflects Americans' ever-changing tastes. In the 1980s, carbonated soft drinks overtook tap water as the most popular drink.
Americans kept drinking more of the carbonated, sugary drink for about a decade. Then, soda's magic started to fade: Doctors, health advocates and government officials blamed soft drinks for making people fat. Consumption started declining after hitting a high in the late 1990s.
At the same time, people started turning to bottled water as an alternative. Its popularity was helped by the emergence of single-serve bottles that were easy to carry around.
Analysts expect water to hold onto to its top spot for years to come. But whether people will drink from the tap or a bottle is uncertain.
Michael Bellas, CEO of the industry tracker Beverage Marketing Corp., predicts that bottled water alone could overtake soda within the next decade.

My cat Max experiences seasonal allergies and scratches at his ears. We thought a cortisone shot would help and it did alleviate the itchy ears.
Soon after I discovered Max was ill and having difficulty breathing. We brought him to the vet and they had to put him in the oxygen cage. They told us he had myocardiopathy and his condition deteriorated over a couple of days and they asked us to come to say goodbye to him.
I didn't want him to die in the vets office so we brought him home. He looked as though he was going to die but it became apparent that he had a chance.
We got heart meds from the vet (diltiazem) splitting the tablet 4 ways (7.5mg dose) and began feeding him chicken broth, then baby food and over the 2 weeks more solid foods. He made a full recovery and the vet was no less than amazed.
About 6 weeks later we tried to do an ultrasound to get a definitive diagnosis but even with mild sedation (very dangerous with a possible heart condition) he wouldn't hold still.
Bottom line; 3 years later (putting the 7.5mg dose of diltiazem down his throat 2x per day he looks and behaves like a normal perfectly healthy cat.
I believe there is a possibility that the steroid shot may have triggered a latent heart condition. I would strongly caution anyone against using steroids on their cat and to look at other solutions that don't pose a potential risk.
He is a kinder, gentler pussycat after his near death experience. I'm a bit nicer too.

November 20, 2014
According to a press release from Domtar Corporation, a development company has purchased the Port Edwards mill. The sale to DMI Acquisitions, LLC, the real estate investment and development arm of DMI Metals, Inc. was finalized Wednesday.
A spokesperson from DMI says they are working with the village of Port Edwards to figure out what's best for the mill. The company will not be relocating from it's Ohio-based headquarter, but instead will seek tenants for the Port Edwards mill.
The purchase includes all the remaining assets on the site, but does not include the adjacent hydroelectric facilities on the Wisconsin River. Domtar will continue to own and operate to provide power to its Nekoosa mill.
"Domtar has been working diligently with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and other parties for several years to prepare the site and find the right purchaser for the Port Edwards assets," said Mark Bessette, General Manager of Domtar's nearby Nekoosa Mill. "We are pleased that DMI will bring new economic activity to the site, for the benefit of the community."
"DMI believes that the 192-acre Port Edwards mill site, with its extensive rail facilities, is uniquely positioned for new warehouse and light manufacturing opportunities, particularly in the energy, agricultural and wood products markets," said DaMenga Weaver, President, DMI Acquisitions, LLC.
Domtar closed the Port Edwards mill in 2008 leaving 500 without jobs.

text: 'Mother Jones' Suddenly Notices the Cult of Obama Print article Send a Tip by Warner Todd Huston 22 Aug 2013 post a comment Kevin Drum of the hard left magazine Mother Jones is shocked to have found that there really is a cult of Obama out there. In an August 19 blog post headlined "The Great Emo-Prog vs. O-Bot Debate," Drum was absolutely flabbergasted to find that there really are people who imagine that Obama is the second coming of the messiah. "I've long been skeptical of the idea that Obama has a core group of supporters from 2008 who really do consider him The One, a shining beacon of light who can do no wrong. But I'm the one who was wrong," Drum wrote ruefully. Drum has found to his amazement that there really are people who will call you any manner of names, assume you are a racist, and claim you aren't a real leftist over even the slightest criticism of Obama. Drum also complained that: If you express anything short of absolute condemnation of everything the NSA has done, your Twitter feed quickly fills up with hysterical proclamations from the emo-progs that you're a right-wing shill, a government lackey, a useful idiot for the slave state, and an obvious fool. Conversely, if you criticize the NSA's surveillance programs, your Twitter feed quickly fills up with equally hysterical proclamations from the O-Bots that you hate Obama, you've always hated Obama, and you're probably a racist swine who's been waiting ever since 2009 for a chance to take down the nation's first black president. Over at National Review's The Corner blog, Charles W. Cooke jokes, "welcome to my world." "Just so as you know, this rule goes also for Obamacare, the economy, foreign policy, firearms law, and absolutely every other area of public policy," Cooke writes. "I have been called a 'racist' for so long now that I'm almost looking forward to a Hillary presidency so that I can be called a 'sexist' instead."

Tapes 'n Tapes
By Jason Crock , April 23, 2006
It's been a wild ride for Tapes n' Tapes since the band released its debut LP, The Loon. They've toured excessively, playing to several sold-out crowds, and plowed through a frenzied SXSW itinerary. True to form, singer/guitarist Josh Grier jumped straight into the interview after driving 16 hours from the band's last gig to discuss how far the band has come, the stir-crazy winters of their hometown Minneapolis, and the, um, cinematic inspirations for his songs.
Pitchfork: Thanks for taking a few minutes and talking to us.
Josh Grier: No problem. I'm a little tired; I got back about an hour ago from tour. We drove 26 hours straight from Seattle to get home.
Pitchfork: Holy crap. You drove straight through to Minneapolis?
JG: Yes. And there were only two of us, because one of our band members is too young for us to pop for the insurance, and the other guy had to fly home so he didn't get fired from his job. I think I ended up driving 16 of the hours. But coming home, I'm suddenly rejuvenated. I'm going through a stack of bills, which is always fun.
Pitchfork: Who is so young that they can't drive?
JG: Our drummer, Jeremy. He's 19. He's a wee lad. You get an insurance break when you hit 25. We have to have full insurance on our van, and we didn't want to risk having to pay a lot extra for having a 19-year-old driver. He gets to sit around a lot, hang out in the backseat.
Pitchfork: Lucky him. You rushed home for the Pitchfork interview, right?
JG: Yeah, yeah. Actually, I thought I'd still be on the road at this point. I thought, this will be perfect, I'll be driving, should be in North Dakota, I can get cell phone reception. I had to try to do two little interviews yesterday, and both people I had to call back because we were driving through Montana. I had to call them back three or four times, going through the mountains.
Pitchfork: That's good that I got you at home, then. So you recently got back from SXSW, where you played eight shows. How was your experience?
JG: It was awesome. It was really fast-paced and busy, but it was great. Everything we got offered, we couldn't really refuse. When we initially saw our schedule, we thought we'd want to kill each other by the end of this-- it's going to be so much, we're going to be so tired. But it really ended up being one of those things where the shows were great, and it wasn't really all that bad. I'm not saying that I want to go do eight shows next year, or that we could have done more, but we had fun.
Pitchfork: What was your best show and worst show down there?
JG: I think the Blender show was definitely the one that was the craziest for us. The bill was Echo & the Bunnymen, Spoon, and us. And we really felt a little bit out of place. So that was really cool and fun. I don't know if there was a worst show. We only had one show where we had sound problems, but it was still a lot of fun. Let's just say they were all good.
Pitchfork: Did you get time to see other bands there or take part in anything else? Or are you just running from stage to stage?
JG: It was pretty much a mad dash. Saturday evening we got to see Love Is All and Ghostface Killah, which was great. Both of those were bands that we were making sure to see. And we got to see José González from outside a tent. But other than that, we were kind of bummed cause there were a lot of bands we didn't get to see. We had friends who went to see the Flaming Lips, and we didn't get to. We had to play.
Pitchfork: How was the rest of the tour?
B: It was great. And we got to play with some great bands. The last two nights we were with the Double and Mazarin, and that was a lot of fun.
Pitchfork: I was listening to a few tracks off your first EP. The sound is a little louder and more reckless, and your sense of humor pokes out a little more. What's changed in the band since then?
JG: There are two primary things. The first is that we recorded the EP ourselves. We got a little stir crazy, because we went up to a cabin in the woods that had no running water or anything, in the middle of winter, and did it all in three days. And we got all the recording equipment a day beforehand, and didn't really know fully what we were doing. We were ecstatic with how it turned out, but you can tell there is some trial-and-error going on, and it can be a little bit rough around the edges at times. But it was an accurate representation of where we were at the time with the band.
The other big difference is lineup change. There are different guys in the band. It was me, and Matt, who is now our keyboard player, was playing bass then, and we had a different drummer. We were just kind of being goofy. And with this record, we have Sean on the bass and Jeremy on the drums. And we didn't do it ourselves; we had a friend of ours, Eric Applewick, do it in a relatively proper studio. On the first record, the recording quality got in the way of the song, and what we really wanted to was have a record where the songs were not hindered by the quality of the recording.
Pitchfork: The new one has that attention to detail. It's a leisurely sounding record. Did you get more time to do this one?
JG: We did it in two business weeks, because the guy's studio we were using was in his basement, so he let us use it on the cheap from 9-to-5 Monday thru Friday for two weeks. So we got all the tracking done in the first six or seven days, and the last two days we mixed it. So it was still pretty quick paced, but not having to run all the control boards and all that stuff. And having somebody not experimenting with how you get stuff to not sound terrible, it made it a lot easier, and that probably came across on the record.
Pitchfork: Did you have an impression that this record would get a bigger audience?
JG: Well, I think the hope was just that more people would be able to listen to it because it wasn't so rough. I can honestly say that we never had any idea that it would get the response that it has. We were hoping that more folks around town would listen to it, and then if we were lucky, that some people nationally would pay some attention to it.
Pitchfork: The title, The Loon, is that a reference to Minnesota?
JG: Actually, it kind of was a double meaning, but we didn't think about the state bird when we went into it. Originally it was in reference to this deli that I can see right now looking out my window. It's kiddy-corner from my apartment, and they make a killer chicken gyro. We were always going there getting food and we thought, you know, we should call the record The Loon. There's some stylistic things that we thought were a little more zany or crazy on it, so we were thinking Looney, Looney Tunes, whatever. So we were like, "Oh good, a double meaning, The Loon, the deli, and maybe a crazy person." We totally didn't think the state bird of Minnesota was the loon. Now everybody's like, "Is it named after the state bird of Minnesota?"
Pitchfork: But do you feel a connection to your hometown? Are you connected with the scene there and other bands?
JG: Oh, definitely. I mean, we've been out on the road the past month; the last couple of months we've been out of town a lot. But at the same time, all our friends are still here. Some friends of ours are playing their CD release show in about a month, and that will be awesome. We're definitely still a Minneapolis band. I don't in any way feel like we're only half from here, and I don't think we ever will be. I've lived in Minneapolis now for four or five years, and it kind of grows on you, even though the winters are more than unpleasant.
Pitchfork: Do you think geography has affected the band? Being holed up in the winter and recording in cabins in the snow?
JG: Oh, definitely. Two of the guys are actually born and raised in Minnesota. I'm originally from Oregon. I've lived in Minnesota now for eight years, but it definitely still has an effect on my psyche. And I think that definitely into the songs. There's probably four months of the year where you just get stir crazy, because you can't go outside and run around.
Pitchfork: What's with the reference in the song "Insistor" to Harvard Square?
JG: Aw, Jesus. Do you want the honest answer? Actually, it's a reference to Good Will Hunting, which... at the time, when I was writing the lyrics, I had probably just watched the movie. It's a good movie, you know, I like it. To be honest, I have to admit I was a math major in college, so I like that aspect of it. I think I had probably just seen the movie, and there's some scene where I think somebody's running through Harvard Square or something. So there's that. That's it. It's out in the open now.
Pitchfork: So for the record, you love Good Will Hunting?
JG: No, I like it. "Love" would be a little strong.
Pitchfork: Let me ask you the question I'm sure you get all the time: What's with the name? Are you "Tapes" or an apostrophe?
JG: Oh, I'm Tapes. The monikers, we've slowly drifted away from them, now that we have four members. It was kind of a fun joke at the initial inception because there were three of us for a long time, but now that there's four of us, we don't really know what to do with it. The name originally came from me and this guy Steve who was a college roommate of mine. We moved up to Minneapolis, we'd been in a band in college, and I wanted to be in a band up here. I was trying to talk him into it. He was having ideas of grad school but we would hang out up in our apartment. I had an old four track recorder, and on Friday nights, we'd have a couple beers, set a kitchen timer, and from when the kitchen timer started to when it stopped, we'd have to play stuff that was totally impromptu. And so after a couple of late night sessions of this, we had a number of songs, and I jokingly said that we should name our band Tapes 'n Tapes and play all those songs. Unfortunately, none of those songs really ever made it.
Pitchfork: So from all those tapes...nothing made it?
JG: Yeah I don't think anything made it. There's some interesting, bizarre stuff. I haven't listened to it in a long, long time. But that's where the initial band name came from, and then before we were a band, I bought the website, the domain name. So that added some fuel to the fire forming the band. I was like, "Look, we have a website."
Pitchfork: Now we have to do it!
JG: Exactly, and after that, it was like, "Well, there's our band name, and that's what it's going to be, whether we like it or not."
Pitchfork: I'm starting to see your point about getting stir crazy in the winter.
JG: Yeah, exactly.
Pitchfork: Were you in bands previous to Tapes 'n Tapes?
JG: In college I was in kind of a covers band. I had written some stuff on my own, but we just did the fun, college covers stuff.
Pitchfork: Have you always been the principle player and songwriter in the band?
JG: Yeah, I would say so. Usually either I write a whole song and I come in, and I'm like, "All right, this is kind of what I have, let's go from here." Or I'll come in with an idea and be like, "Let's work this out." Some of the older songs were things that I kind of holed up and wrote on my own. Some of the newer stuff has been more of a collaborative thing. The last few songs we wrote for The Loon, like "Just Drums" and "Crazy Eight" and maybe one other, were something that I had more of just an idea in the last month or two before recording. We needed more songs, I brought them in, and we kind of worked them out as a band, so I think it's going in that direction.
Pitchfork: Aside from Ben Affleck, what inspires you to write songs?
JG: [laughs] That's tough, Ben Affleck's really quite an inspiration.
Pitchfork: Well, he's so versatile...
JG: It's more his pompadour. I don't know. Generally, I'll just sit around and play guitar, and I definitely try to come up with music first, and then after I have a core idea of how I want the song to sound, I'll start forming the words. And I definitely say it's more like words than lyrics. I don't fancy myself as a poet or really articulate. But writing lyrics, I'll kind of mumble stuff when we sing, in the sound of where the words should go, and form words that would fit in there, and hopefully don't sound totally idiotic. The whole idea is to have words that don't detract from the music, but hopefully will enhance it.
Pitchfork: What day jobs do you guys hold down? What do you have to do tomorrow?
JG: I do data analysis, I work in a cube.
Pitchfork: Who's selling the records and shipping them out, and doing the website?
JG: The website is something I've always done. Keri, our manager, does all the orders; she basically runs what has now become our record label. She fills all the orders and does all our press, does all that stuff while we're working our jobs. And until recently she was doing all that while working, too. It's definitely more than a full time job.
Pitchfork: Does she manage anyone else or just you?
JG: No, just us.
Pitchfork: You're lucky.
JG: Yeah, yeah, very lucky.
Pitchfork: You had that little box on your website for playing with "Jennie" and mixing it. How did that come about?
JG: I was bored a couple years ago, and I was just trying to think of things to make the website be not boring. It was one of those things where if we got someone in the door, and they were actually paying attention, I thought I'd just give them as much crap to do while they're here, keep it as interesting as possible so maybe they'd spend a little time here and enjoy it. So I thought it would be fun to do some kind of mixer, where people could mess with a song. It's something I've always wanted to do with other people's songs. It was easy; I had tracked that song all on my computer, so I had all the base tracks, and then I had to build the interface, which wasn't so easy.
Pitchfork: There are other bands who offer up their songs a capellas, and everything mixed in separate files, but not everyone knows how to run [sound editing] software. With your site it's more fun to poke around.
JG: Well, thanks. I had somebody email me the other day and was like, "Hey you guys need to put 'Insistor' up on the mixer," and I wrote back and said, "Dude, I'd love to, but we don't have all the raw files, and it would take me probably two weeks to go back and figure out how that program works."
Pitchfork: That's unfortunate, it would be great if you could. Maybe while you're at the day job.
JG: Yeah, when we all get fired, and we don't have to work so much, we'll have plenty of time.
Pitchfork: I can't think of a band I've seen that has a "Recommended If You Don't Like" section [on their press sheet]. One, you misspelled Sammy Hagar, but two, what other bands are pissing you off right now?
JG: Oh, I don't think there are any bands that are pissing me off right now. I'm actually a big fan of what's going on musically right now. I was just thinking about it the other day, and actually today, as we were driving home, trying to keep awake, I put on The Woods by Sleater-Kinney. That's my favorite record from last year. I just think it's amazing, it's such a great rock record. And I was thinking about everybody's critical pick for last year, and everybody was way into Sufjan last year. I really like that record too, but I can't remember the last time there were enough good records that were totally different: To have a great rock record like Sleater-Kinney, and then a Sufjan, which was totally different [and] orchestral. There have been so many great records the past couple of years. So I'm not hatin' on anybody right now.
Pitchfork: So if you're listening to a lot of things, are you trying to incorporate different sounds into your next few records maybe?
JG: You know, I've definitely lately been listening to a lot of Black Mountain, Death From Above 1979, Comets on Fire-- I would say almost stoner rock. Something about it is hitting in the right place. I saw Black Mountain live at the Entry six months ago and it was just awesome.
Pitchfork: And you're still talking about it?
JG: Yeah, exactly. It was one of the best shows I've seen in a long time. When we've been playing around, pretty much every song we've been messing around with, I'll throw in a gratuitous 30-second metal breakdown, with power chords and heavy diving stuff. I don't know how much of that stuff will stick around for the next record, but it sure is fun to play.
Pitchfork: That'll be great, I think "Just Drums" needs a metal breakdown for sure.
JG: Yeah, we'll have to add that next time. We'll have the drum solo be three minutes.
Pitchfork: So the next album's going to be crazy sludge-metal. What else can we expect from Tapes 'n Tapes in the near future?
JG: It looks like we're going to tour over in the UK for about 10 days at the end of May. And then we're going to be going on pretty much a month long U.S. tour for June. We should be able to do a proper full tour then. I think this month we're going to try writing some new stuff. In February we worked on a little bit because we had some down time, but this month we really don't have any gigs till the end of the month, so hopefully we can work on new material, because we recorded the record last June, so we're all kind of pining to find some new songs here.

It happened again. The walls shook very hard and the singing bowls sounded on their own—as a warning or a meditation? Small earthquakes were normal in this part of Japan, but Lucy Jarrett never could get used to them. She had come to live in the village with her love Yoshi a few years ago. They had fallen for each other during a monsoon in another country, two very different people determined to make a private country of their own.
But things are changing now. Lucy can not find a job in her field of hydrology, and Yoshi is preoccupied with his corporate work. He looks at her closely one day and says she seems to be a very lonely person… and she realizes that she is.
"Bewitching art experts and enthusiasts alike for centuries, the Lady and the Unicorn tapestries hang today in the Cluny Museum in Paris. In each, an elegant lady and a unicorn stand or sit on an island of grass surrounded by a rich background of animals and flowers. Little is known about them except that they were woven toward the end of the fifteenth century and bear the coat of arms of a wealthy family from Lyons. Tracy Chevalier takes readers back to the tapestries' creation, giving life to the men who designed and made them, as well as the wives, daughters, and servants who exercised subtle (and not so subtle) influences over their men."

The Fabulous Thunderbirds Their debut album, with the original lineup of Wilson, Vaughn, Buck, and Ferguson stompin' through a roadhouse set of covers and genre-worthy originals. One of the few white blues albums that works. What's The Word Second album, equally powerful. Some of their best, including the off-kilter "Los Fabulosos Thunderbirds" and "Running Shoes." The 2000 CD reissue on Benchmark adds three bonus tracks, one of them the aforementioned "Los Fabulosos Thunderbirds," the other two recorded live in an Austin, TX, bar.
Thank you
Anyone feel like seeding this? Please... ;)
OK, so I have one of these on vinyl since 20 years. I'd be happpy to swap it for someone seeding. Come On!
