Bristol Palin in Harper's Bazaar: I'm a Hard Worker!by Free Britney at . Comments
There is nothing really controversial about Harper's Bazaar's new feature on Bristol Palin, but she does address sensitive, obvious issues such as teen pregnancy.
She admits "it was kind of humiliating" to get pregnant as a teen. "[I was thinking], 'Great, I'm 17 years old, I'm 40 pounds overweight with a big belly on me.'"
"All my friends are at school watching on the news. This kind of sucks. I thought I would be somewhere warm at college with my friends," the 19-year-old adds.
"But that was definitely not possible with having Tripp"
Bristol Palin, who is raising now 17-month-old Tripp as a single mom after ending her fake engagement from Levi Johnston, says life is not what she envisioned.
But that's also okay. Look what she got in return ...
Bristol Palin and Tripp Johnston looking adorable.
"I love my baby more than anything. He's like a Gerber baby. He's the cutest baby in the whole world," she says. "I just want Tripp to be happy and healthy."
Bristol works as a medical assistant and serves as an ambassador to the Candie's Foundation - as an abstinence advocate, no less - to support her little son:
"I'm on my own. I'm really proud of it. I'm a hard worker. I don't have time for friends or anything. It's just like, crap, there is a hockey game tonight that I want to go to but I can't. Or, I do have to go to work today, because I've got bills to pay."
Sarah Palin says she's "very proud of her [daughter] for taking responsibility. It's not an easy road, but it's the right road. Decisions were made, and we can't unwind those decisions. Consequences are being dealt with. I'm sincerely proud of her."
Bristol says her parents had no idea she was sexually active with Levi Johnston, who says Sarah let them share a bedroom when he lived with the family.
"It's not like we sat down and were like, 'Alright, here's the birds and the bees,'" Bristol says. "Truly, my parents just assumed that I wasn't doing anything."
wow a baby... nice
No Bristol, you're a slut!
Truly Bristol's parents must have been incredibly stupid to think their daughter and Johnston, shacked up in the same room, were not sexually active. That did the Palin's think the teenagers were doing--playing monopoly?
People should boycott Candies or teen moms and others should protest Candies for making Bristol Palin the ambassador for teen pregnancy. She is not the norm, many girls do not have the advantages that Bristol does, and young women should ask for an ambassador that better represents them. Bristol is a farce.
Teen pregnancies are an epidemic in this country but it's not the teens fault, it's the parents, the teens are still children. Parents should start instilling what is expected from their daughters and sons right from the beginning. Also, parents should treat their children and instill in their children that they are better than everyone else on the planet, and always show them that they are. I noticed Sarah had to put her two cents worth in. She says that she is very proud of Bristol, ya, so she can put the blame on Bristol instead of telling the world that she f***** up as mother.
wait a minute: she wishes that she had been an unwed teen AT COLLEGE rather than AT HIGHSCHOOL? obviously, there are several retards in this family...
For-real-tho: I am very well educated. I believe you are using the word ignorance because your vocabulary is very limited. We simply do not share the same opinions, no big deal, so who is the ignorant one now?
tina...you are a looney toon....how is Bristol responsible for that poor girl that you are speaking of??? Was she the "blackmailer" of that naive mother you speak of??? Saying crazy shit like Bristol may "get these girls killed and their babies" is really out there....teen pregnancy and teen sexual activity is an ignored epidemic, anyone that sheds light and gives any teen insight into just a few of the sacrifices a teen parent may have to make, is encouraged by the masses...if you want to remain ignorant and keep naive girls in danger, that is your choice...stupid as it is; however, knowledge is power....toss that rock, that you are under, aside

Phase I Storm Water Requirements
Is Runoff from Agricultural or Timber Harvest Activities Regulated?
Phase II Storm Water Requirements
Small Community Exemption Expires in 2003
Why are Storm Water Discharges from Urban Areas a Problem?
Why are Storm Water Discharges from Construction Activity a Problem?
EPA Region 10's Storm Water Web page
Return to Region 10 Tribal Storm Water Web page
Storm runoff is major source of pollution to surface water. Runoff from certain sources are subject to regulation by the federal Clean Water Act's (CWA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program, when such runoff is discharged directly to surface water.
According to the 1996 National Water Quality Inventory (Inventory), a biennial summary of water quality surveys, approximately 40 percent of surveyed U.S. waterbodies are still impaired by pollution and do not meet water quality standards. A leading source of this impairment is polluted runoff. In fact, according to the Inventory, 13 percent of impaired rivers, 21 percent of impaired lake acres and 45 percent of impaired estuaries are affected by urban/suburban storm water runoff and 6 percent of impaired rivers, 11 percent of impaired lake acres and 11 percent of impaired estuaries are affected by construction site discharges.
Phase I Storm Water Requirements:
Phase I of the EPA storm water program was promulgated in 1990 under the CWA. Phase I relies on National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit coverage to address storm water runoff from the sources listed below:
(1) "large" municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) generally serving populations of 100,000 or greater,
(2) construction activity disturbing 5 acres of land or greater, and
(3) ten categories of industrial activity.

Phosphorescent played Union Pool, playing High Violet Annex tonight (before Merc) w/ The Antlers & Sharon Van Etten
DOWNLOAD: Phosphorescent - The Mermaid Parade (MP3)
The National did not play the High Violet Annex last night (5/12), but many others did. A full report is coming shortly, but in the meantime I didn't want to hold back the information that tonight (5/13) will include films by Margarita Jimeno, Sufjan Stevens, Jonathan Dueck, Deborah Johnson, Ryan Irvin, and Justin Anderson. More importantly, there will also be live performance by The Antlers, Phosphorescent, Sharon Van Etten "and more".
For Phos, it will be his first of two shows tonight, though the second one at Mecury Lounge will be a much longer set (tickets are still available). It will also be his second of two shows this week on East 4th Street. High Violet Annex is right next door to Other Music where he played an in-store the other day (5/10). That's four NYC shows total if you count Union Pool in Brooklyn which he/they played one day after that. The Brooklyn gig was packed and front-man Matthew Houk expressed his joy more than once at playing a hometown show. They played almost the entire new album, Here's to Taking it Easy, which is out now. The crowd was singing along to new song "The Mermaid Parade" which you can download above for free.
Other upcoming Phos dates include a free NYC show at Pier 54 with Dawes (a series that the Antlers are also playing this summer). The Antlers are touring with The National in June.
A video of Martha Wainwright playing the High Violet Annex last night below...

Man Man
Yeasayer, Man Man and The Antlers played a free show at Ithaca College on Friday, May 7th. The show was on a field in the middle of campus, and was advertised as students only but ending up being open to anyone. The opener was Zgress and Snack Attack, a local spazzy piano-pop group who previously won a battle of the bands.
Thanks to Angelina Castillo, who took these pictures and writes: Man Man played mostly new songs, and they all sounded totally nuts and awesome. Yeasayer and Antlers both killed it as well, and you could tell Antlers made a lot of converts. Yeasayer split the set pretty even between All Hour Cymbals and Odd Blood, but the AHC songs were definitely the crowd pleasers. Except for "Ambling Alp." People went fucking nuts for "Ambling Alp." Great singalong song. The whole shebang was put on by IC (more specifically the Bureau of Concerts) for an end-of year festival. BOC also brought Dan Deacon, Mountain Goats, Black Joe Lewis and others this year. Most all the bands went out into the field and ate/talked with the crowd afterwards. Ryan Kattner of Man Man [aka Honus Honus] was a total doll, and was seen sweeping many a college chick into his arms for photo ops.
The Antlers tour Europe this May and play with Phantogram and the National in North America afterwards (including the National's Radio City show). They also play NYC's Pier 54-Hudson River Park on July 22nd
Yeasayer just played NYC - they'll be back for a Governors Island show on June 5th. Man Man's short tour runs through the week, but doesn't visit NYC.
More pictures are below...

The free outdoor concert series kicks off Thursday, July 8, with the infectious indie folk/alt country band Phosphorescent on a co-bill with the "authentically vintage" sounding L.A.-based Dawes.Three amazing free shows this year! Hopefully the rain stays away.
The Antlers, the meteoric post-rock artists take the stage Thursday, July 22, with fellow Brooklyn-based Dinosaur Feathers and its tropical surf pop sound opening the show.
RiverRocks concludes the 2010 summer season on Thursday, August 12, with Atlanta's Deerhunter, led by Bradford Cox -- among the most talented and hardest working indie artists in the business. Opening for Deerhunter is Brooklyn's Real Estate.
RiverRocks is Hudson River Park's signature concert series staged on the Pier 54 waterfront adjacent to New York City's Meatpacking District (at 14th Street). With the setting sun and the Hudson River serving as the backdrop, each show is expected to draw capacity audiences.
Gates open at 6 p.m. for all RiverRocks shows, which are scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. More information is available at www.riverrocksnyc.com.
Meanwhile, catch Real Estate 3 times this month including @ Monster Island tonight (4/16).
Phosphorescent also has a few shows coming up sooner.
Dawes will be in town to open a show for Josh Ritter.
Deerhunter recently was in town to open for Spoon.

The Antlers helped kick off the first "Viewtopia in Vino" event at In Vino Wine Bar in NYC Sunday night (4/11). Crowd members tasted two white wines with commentary from the Wente Vineyards representative. Then The Antlers played three songs (sylvia, shiva, bear). Then there was more wine drinking. Then In Vino owner Keith Beavers had a discussion with the band. Then two red wines were tasted. Then the band played three more songs (atrophy, two, cold war). Then more drinking. Pictures below...

"The 2010 Lollapalooza line-up is official: Soundgarden, Green Day, Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire, The Strokes, and Phoenix will headline, joined by Social Distortion, MGMT, Jimmy Cliff, Hot Chip, and The Black Keys. With 130 bands on this year's bill, its sure to be a weekend long feast for the ears.After extremely accurate early leaks and then much teasing, Lollapalooza oficially announces this year's lineup. Check it out below...
It's a monumental year for Lollapalooza, filled with homecomings, reunions, and first-times. Soundgarden, 1992 and 1996 Lollapalooza alumni, return to the Lollapalooza stage for their first performance since 1997. Green Day will rock Grant Park sixteen years after their first Lollapalooza appearance. While Lady Gaga will headline the festival only three short years after playing the BMI stage at Lollapalooza 2007.
Arcade Fire returns to Grant Park, having played the reincarnated Lollapalooza in 2005. This is the first Lollapalooza for The Strokes - and also their first show in four years. And making their Lollapalooza debut: Phoenix." - Lollapalooza

Lucero, Centromatic, Nicole Atkins, Holly Miranda, Zola Jesus, more @ Club DeVille (BV/DailyMotion day party) - pics & video
photos by Tim Griffin
"...The bands were running late at Club Deville, but I was pleased to hear Centromatic on the stage. They sounded like classic rock and when Steve Miller Band's "Rock'N Me" came on after their set, it was in the same vein, but Centromatic was above and beyond....It was a perfectly rowdy ending to the BrooklynVegan/DailyMotion day party at Club DeVille on Friday, March 19th (one of our seven shows this year). The day's eclectic lineup ranged from country to electro to singer-songwriter to comedy. We also made a huge effort to feed people and give away free stuff this year. Those who stopped by the free show got free Ear Piece ear plugs, Magic Hat beer, Firefly Sweet Tea vodka (that lasted the entire 6+ hours), Gundlach Bundschu wine, Raw Rev bars, Nadamoo ice cream, Hail Merry "Grawnola", breakfast tacos and Daily Juice catering. Action For Animals was on hand with baked goods for sale that helped raise $800 for charity. Somebody (and every band and comedian) won some Original Penguin clothes. Members of Passion Pit (aka the Wet Bandits) played the music between bands. KEXP was filming video. All in all an amazing day.
Lucero came on next and killed it. Nichols' voice is like sandpaper on gravel and it has a booze-soaked and sorry quality that makes it sound like the hard nights and heartbreaks that he sings about are real experiences. Lucero is one of the few bands that I've seen (Free Energy comes to mind as well) that broke through to fans. Quite a few folks were dancing, jumping, singing and generally rocking out during their set..." [Rock Candy]
Catch Lucero in NYC at Music Hall of Williamsburg this Tuesday, March 30th with Glossary (tickets are still on sale). Centro-matic kicks off a house tour in Houston the same day.
You've already seen some of this Friday party HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE. Pictures, reviews and videos from it continue below...

SXSW 2010 day 4 pics & review (Black Keys, Dum Dum Girls, Broken Bells, Demolished Thoughts, Antlers, Fanfarlo, more)
"Hello, and welcome to Portland, Oregon," quipped James Mercer, as he and Danger Mouse greeted the freezing crowd at Mog Day Party on the final day of SXSW. A 40-degree drop in temperature from Friday caused flip-flops and t-shirts to be replaced by hoodies, coats and gloves. Broken Bells were just one of several excellent bands that filled the indoor and outdoor venues of the Mohawk.
I finally made it downtown before 2pm by taking the rather efficient Metro Capitol bus. Traffic along I-35 into downtown took almost an hour the day before from just 10 minutes north. Arriving a little after noon Shilpa Ray and Her Happy Hookers were already on inside. Ray was squeezing the hell out of that squeezbox and her raspy, scowling voice was alarming so early in the day. It certainly set a tone. And Free Energy complete with free cassettes started things outside with their unabashed good times garage rock.
Back inside The Dum Dum Girls were up next with more of the same hazy lo-fi pop that drummer Frankie Rose was laying down the night before on the same stage with her band. I skipped back outside for Demolished Thoughts though Andrew WK (an advertised member along with Thurston Moore and J Mascis) was absent and the bassist for Fucked Up was filling in. It was thrashing punk stuff with silly songs like the 45-second "I Hate Kids" (those were the lyrics) followed by the 45-second "I Hate Sports" (some videos below).
Then it was back inside for a little dance - hip hop with Rye Rye and then back outside for Broken Bells - who kept busy at the festival. For a band only a couple months old they were tight and the songs sounded great. Inside again for Freelance Whales and then back outside for The Antlers, back inside for Real Estate and finally back outside for the Black Keys who straight up killed. Mercer and Danger Mouse (who produced the Keys' Attack & Release) and members of the Antlers were sidestage rocking out. The crowd was hanging over rails and pushing in toward the stage. Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney had everyone riveted and rocking. Certainly the most polished performance of the day, perhaps the festival.
Unexpectedly, as I ventured back to the convention center, I stumbled upon Fanfarlo about to perform in Brush Square with free drinks (Shiner Bock!) and heaters to keep the tent warm. Fantastic live show. "If we knew there were going to be so many photographers, we'd have done better," quipped multi-instrumentalist Cathy Lucas about the the band's appearance.
For the evening it was all about finishing strong. I made my way to the Victorian Room at the Driskill for Miss Li who was great and her band was stellar, over to St. David's Bethel Hall to see some Texas bands as part of the Western Vinyl Showcase, including an unimpressive Matthew and the Arrogant Sea. I decided to go all out and dashed over to Barbarella for the excellent Best Coast who also played a couple of new songs that sounded really good. Back to St. David's for the ambient Sleep Whale (formerly MOM) from Denton, TX down to Paradise for crazy afro-beat inflected dance music courtesy of New York's Tanlines (it was a full-on dance party.) Finally, it was back over to St. David's for the beautiful, classical-leaning experimental band Balmorhea.
Day One HERE. Day two HERE. Day Three HERE. Day Four pictures and videos continued below...

SXSW 2010 day 3 in pics & review (Pains of Being Pure of Heart, Rogue Wave, Antlers, Cake Shop, Warpaint, more)
SXSW Day Three started over at the free Dickies Sounds Day Party. Free silk-screened posters with all the bands playing that day (including She & Him and Surfer Blood at the official showcase that night) were printed up and handed out on the spot. People played ping pong next to the house while around the corner Greg Laswell played a few new songs, several old ones, as well as his incredibly depressing take on Cyndi Lauper's "Girl's Just Wanna Have Fun". After a quick dash over to the convention center it was back to Dickies, where there was suddenly a long line, to catch the all-girl quartet, Warpaint, who were fantastic. Then Rogue Wave closed out the day portion. I still can't get excited about their new record, but live Zach Rogue and his newly configured lineup have it down and the crowd we're into it from the start. The highlight being "Lake Michigan" and a slow-building, two-minute intro.
For the evening I set up camp at the Mohawk for the Slumberland/Cake Shop Showcase. Sheffield's indiepop trio Standard Fare opened inside and their performance was great. A better batch of indie pop songs you'll be hard-pressed to find this year. Philadelphia drum-guitar duo Reading Rainbow were next and another indie pop band, the excellent Summer Cats (from Australia), followed. Frankie Rose and the Outs were up next with their hazy, lo-fi rock. I skipped out after that to nip over to the Galaxy Backyard to catch The Antlers (completely forgetting I would see them the following afternoon at another Party.) Their third show of the festival and they just nailed it. People around me who had not heard of them were won over after just one song (the increasingly uptempo "Sylvia".) By the end, one girl put her hands up in the shape of a heart right in front of Peter Silberman, eliciting a smile from the frontman mid-verse. From there it was a quick dash back up Red River to the Mohawk where both inside and outside were at capacity with Miike Snow about to go on outside (followed by Mayer Hawthorne, neither of who I caught) and Pains of Being Pure at Heart inside. "Welcome to the Cake Shop," said Kip Berman at the start of the New York indie pop band's set, pointing at the Cake Shop banner on the wall behind them.
Day One HERE. Day Two HERE. Day Three continued below....

The Antlers @ SXSW 2010 (by Dominick Mastrangelo)
Viewtopia In Vino is a new series that "features well known bands performing acoustically followed by a conversation with a moderator and the audience." Each event will also include a wine tasting and be located at the small In Vino Wine Bar in the East Village in NYC. The first one takes place Sunday, April 11th and features a 4-glass wine tasting led by Wente Vineyards head wine maker Karl Wente followed by a 3-song performance by The Antlers followed by a 25 minute conversation with the band followed by at least 3 more songs. The event will be super intimate and there are only 40 tickets available and they're on sale now ($25).
The Antlers just played a four shows at SXSW including the official Frenchkiss showcase and our day party at Club DeVille on Friday. I was at the latter and loved them as much as always despite a few technical issues. Holly Miranda, who played right before them, also came up and sang with them for the last song. I took video of that and will upload ASAP, but in the meantime you can watch a clip of "Two" below.
The band's next show is even sooner than the wine thing and is also in NY (at/in Stony Brook). In June they play dates with the National including the gig at Radio City. All dates below...

The Antlers played Terminal 5 w/ Editors (pics, setlist), playing BV SXSW, touring w/ Phantogram, National (dates)

Antlers / Editors
"People don't mean any harm,'' the Antlers singer said from Brooklyn in a recent phone interview. "But they'll ask, 'Is the song 'Bear' about abortion?' before they even say hello. Whoa, what? It's like going up to a stranger and asking how their mom died. I don't know how I feel about it.''That tour brought the two bands to Terminal 5 on Friday night (2/19). Pictures and setlists from that show are in this post. Editors were supporting their new album, out now in the U.S. on the Fader label. The tour ended last night (2/21) at 9:30 Club in DC. The tour started right after The Antlers played BAM with Ra Ra Riot which wasn't long after the Antlers played a Haiti benefit at City Winery with Patti Smith.
But you can't blame fans for feeling close enough to the heartbroken narrator of the band's breakout record, "Hospice,'' to ask for details. The lo-fi concept album, centered on a terminally ill patient and her caregiver, is intimate and haunting. The 10 tracks deal with loss, death, guilt, and even Sylvia Plath ("Sylvia, get your head out of the oven / Go back to screaming and cursing, remind me again how everyone betrayed you.'') The stuff of nightmares, really.
"Hospice,'' self-released by Silberman last March, garnered serious buzz and ended up on several best-of-2009 lists. Venerable indie label Frenchkiss Records re-released the album in August. The Antlers headlined a sold-out show at the Bowery Ballroom in December and are on a tour with Editors.... [Boston Globe]
Coming up for The Antlers: a tour of Europe, a headlining tour with Phantogram, an opening slot on The National's upcoming dates (including Radio City Music Hall, but not Prospect Park), and... the BrooklynVegan day show at Club DeVille in Austin on Friday, March 19th with Lucero and more bands TBA. They then play the Frenchkiss & Mom+Pop official SXSW showcase at Galaxy Room (formerly Radio Room & Borboun Rocks) that same night (with Freelance Whales, Local Natives, An Horse, Suckers, and Les Savy Fav).

Ra Ra Riot
Ra Ra Riot played to a sold-out crowd at the Howard Gilman Opera House in Brooklyn on Friday (2/5). The Syracuse-based band played an energetic set and threw in a couple of Kate Bush covers (finishing the show with "Hounds Of Love".) "Suspended in Gaffa" appeared on 2008's critically acclaimed The Rhumb Line of which the band played all of its songs.Peter Silberman, Michael Lerner, and Darby Cicci collectively known as The Antlers took the stage at BAM's Howard Gilman Opera House at a prompt 8:10pm. This kicked off the 4th night of BAM's Sounds Like Brooklyn Festival. Silberman commanded audience attention with his sweeping falsettos, and impressive guitar tones coming from his daisy chain of pedals. They had a two man horn section join them (Tim Cronin and Jon Natchez), adding depth to their already dense sound. The band's set largely consisted of songs off of Hospice.
The Antlers, architects of one of last year's critically acclaimed records, Hospice, opened with a taut, haunting set, placed in stark contrast to the headliner's flowing, uptempo pop songs. - Dominick
Ra Ra Riot headlined the show, featuring a string quartet and a four man horn section. The band sounded impeccable live, and carried though their set with the poise, grace, and energy of a well practiced rock band. In four short years since forming the band Ra Ra Riot has grown a large fan base, which was certainly apparent at The Howard Gilman Opera House Friday night. Cellist Alexandra Lawn and violinist Rebecca Zeller add to the already dense rhythms of the band with their sweeping string section.
Friday night's show was the third and last 'Sounds Like Brooklyn' show at BAM this year. The first two were Les Savy Fav / Vivian Girls and Rain Machine / Anti-Pop Consortium. More pictures from Ra Ra / Antlers, below...

Holly Miranda @ Webster Hall - 1/18/2010
Hello,Holly Miranda, who was joined on stage at one point by her friends The Antlers, opened for her labelmates Vampire Weekend at Webster Hall last night (1/18). It was the headliner's 2nd of three NYC shows in a row. The first night was uptown at United Palace with Titus Andronicus. The third is tonight (1/19) at Bowery Ballroom with Nat Baldwin.
I'm am writing to you from lovely California [on December 30, 2009]. I have been here since finishing my last tour of 2009 with The XX and The Friendly Fires on the West Coast in early December.
Being as it is two days before New Years Eve, I have been reflecting on the year that has past. I cannot begin to say how grateful I am to everyone who has come out to support Timmy and I on the road. To those of you who have given us warm, home cooked meals; a cozy bed to sleep in or visited me at the merch table and kept me company. We could not have done it with out you.
From the Midwest tour with AA Bondy, the East Coast with The Antlers, Europe with The XX, and then again with The XX and The Friendly Fires on the West Coast. We have been busy, but there has been no shortage of good music and amazing people surrounding us at all times.
I am happy to announce that it looks like the coming year will be more of the same...
First I am so excited to say that we will be opening for Vampire Weekend in New York on January 18th at Webster Hall!
Secondly, beginning in February, we will be touring across the continental United States with Tegan & Sara!!! The tour dates are below.
Last, but not least, I'm happy to announce that my full-length album The Magician's Private Library will be out on XL Recordings February 23rd!
Cheers! Here's to 2010!
I hope this finds everyone safe and warm and having a happy holly day!
See you in the new year!

"In an enthralling concert at the Bowery Ballroom on Tuesday night, playing the songs from "Hospice" to a rapt audience, the Antlers (from Brooklyn) made clear that the music was not just a vehicle for the story. It was its own molten element, moving at its own pace. Songs emerged from, and sometimes dissolved back into, stretches of abstract sound: Mr. Silberman's guitar feedback darkening like storm clouds, Darby Cicci's hissing or whooshing keyboard sounds, Michael Lerner's atmospheric cymbals, the band's loops and layers of static and effects that only gradually led into chords and rhythms. Eventually they were topped by the words." [NY Times]Check out our 'end of 2009' interview with Peter Silberman of the Antlers, and the one with Annie of Uninhabitable Mansions, and more pictures from their December 15th show at Bowery Ballroom, below...

After a decade in which private lives basically became public domain-- think confessional emo, YouTube, reality TV, and social networking updates-- you would think that we'd have become inured to the private pain of semi-autobiographical songwriting. But as the debut album by Peter Silberman's former solo project (it's now a trio) proves, with the right blend of earnest, whispery vocals, delicate, gauzy melodies, and strangely smothering scratchy effects, a desperately delivered concept album about personal loss still has the power to emotionally destroy listeners. Hospice, as its name implies, is not an easy album to take-- the haunting songs' plainspoken prose tells of mental illness, abortion, cancer, and death-- but couched in soaring anthems and swathed in layers of ambient noise, its heartbreaking stories are easy to love. --Rebecca Raber, Pitchfork.comPeter Silberman of The Antlers answered our end-of-year questionnaire...

Animal Collective @ ATP NY (more by Ryan Muir)
So how the hell did Merriweather Post Pavilion-- an album closer in spirit to the sub-aquatic psychedelia of 2005's Feels and Panda Bear's 2007 solo Person Pitch than its predecessor-- wind up in the Billboard Top 20 and outsell both the Arctic Monkeys and Franz Ferdinand's most recent albums in North America? That mystery is ultimately the most wonderful thing about the album. Unlike so many indie-rock crossover artists before them, Animal Collective did not breach the mainstream by cleaning up their act, or adopting classic-rock conventions, or scoring a strategic soundtrack or iPod-commercial placement. And, above all, they did little to formalize their defining mercurial quality. [Pitchfork]Pitchfork posted their Top 50 Albums of 2009.
Pitchfork also listed their Top 100 Tracks of 2009, and the Top Albums of the Decade.
Animal Collective is DJing the Museum of Natural History in January.

Fanfarlo @ CMJ 2009
The 2010 CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival will take place in New York City from October 19 to 23. The 2009 CMJ Music Marathon began on October 20th which was the same night as the BrooklynVegan showcase at Music Hall of Williamsburg. A new set of pictures from that show is continued below...

"Holy Shit. The Antlers" - my Twitter
"The mighty Antlers sure have grown since we last saw them at our Interface taping. Kicking off CMJ at the BrooklynVegan showcase at, appropriately enough, Brooklyn, N.Y.'s Music Hall of Williamsburg on Tuesday, the three-piece dazzled with a loud mixture of electronic-fused guitars amidst Peter Silberman's impassioned vocals. The frontman brought the story detailed on the band's second album, 'Hospice,' to life over the course of an hour, even if that wasn't the full intention." [Spinner]The Antlers performed to a packed Music Hall of Williamsburg last night (10/20). More than one person came up to me after the show and said "that was the best we ever saw them play". I couldn't agree more, and have no doubt now that their upcoming headining show at the same-sized Bowery Ballroom makes perfect sense. They went on after Laura Marling and before Fanfarlo who closed the six-band night.
The Antlers play their second CMJ show (a short acoustic set at Sound Fix) at 6pm today. Then they have one more show at The Delancey before heading out on the road. More pictures from Music Hall below...

Fanfarlo played BV-CMJ @ MHOW (pics), playing Webster Hall w/ Freelance Whales & other Tour Dates (+ Bowery tonight)
photos by Tim Griffin
"What a difference a year makes for Fanfarlo. My donut-eating London buddies first came through these parts last year for CMJ, but now they are downright expert and confident performers. The large stage suits them well for their rousing choruses and invigorating melodies. The added element for this show was handing out plastic accordion-like tubes. You basically twirl these things over your head and they make a whirling noise. I grabbed one and managed to hit Marcus Mumford of Mumford & Sons in the head. My bad." [Music Snobbery]I can't believe Marcus Mumford was at the show last night. I mean I can believe it because he and Laura Marling (who played) are tight, but I can't believe it because I was originally trying to get them on the bill too! (but they weren't going to be in town in time) (I guess plans changed) (it was a while ago). Mumford and Sons play Mercury Lounge tonight (10/21), and Music Hall of Williamsburg Thursday (10/22).
I will admit I was exhausted by the time Fanfarlo went on last night. So much work goes into planning a show and then it only gets more hectic on the day-of, and then I showed up at Music Hall around 4:30pm, and then five bands played before them (including the Wheel). Then, not only did things get a little delayed causing Fanfarlo's set time to be pushed back about 45 minutes (they were originally scheduled for 11:00), The Antlers rocked it so hard right before them that I didn't think I could listen to any more music. Apparently some people felt the same way (or it just got too late), because at least 100 people left after the Antlers, leaving room for more people to fill the club back up before Fanfarlo went on.
For Fanfarlo it was their second show that day. Their first was earlier at Pianos (packed I heard), and it was actually because of that Pianos show that they had a limited soundcheck at Music Hall which in turn caused them to go on even later due to all the instruments they needed to make sure were working right before they played... and then they played, and it was great, and the crowd went wild for an encore, and like they did at The Bell House last month, they came back and played an encore which included handing out those plastic tubes for people to whip around in a dangerous manner (see above), but unlike The Bell House, there was no member of Beirut in their band this time. Last night was also way better than the Bell House show (but maybe I'm biased).
Their final CMJ 2009 show is tonight (10/21) at Bowery Ballroom with Midnight Juggernauts. It's sold out, though if you have a CMJ badge you can still try and get in. Also playing Bowery Ballroom tonight are Freelance Whales, WHO will also open for Fanfarlo when they come back to NYC in December to headline Webster Hall. Tickets for that December 18th show are now on AmEx presale, and go on general sale on Friday at noon.
The new date is part of a December North American tour. All dates and more pictures from last night, below...

"I first saw The Antlers along with a crowd of about 45 people at the Black Cat in Washington DC back in March of 2009. Peter Silberman leads a fiery, potent trio. You can hear that concert and see some videos of the show on our Web site. Last night, at the The Music Hall of Williamsburg, they hit a peak only hinted at back in March.Thanks everyone who came to the BrooklynVegan showcase at Music Hall last night. More coverage of that show coming soon. Catch the Antlers again today at 6pm at Sound Fix Records.
Sometimes it's worth a band's time to work and rework its material instead of going on to new tunes. That was the case with The Antlers. They're diving deep into their songs, amping up the textures and working on their trademark love of a good crescendo. Peter Silberman, Michael Lerner, and Darby Cicci were simply thrilling." [Bob Boilen for NPR]
It took till October to do it, but NYC finally has a multi-day fest with nice weather!
This afternoon, Andrew W.K. is giving the featured talk for CMJ at NYU's Kimmel Center (4th Floor, Eisner & Lubin Auditorium, 60 Washington Sq South) at 2pm. You'll need a badge to get in. The Village Voice has a "guide" to CMJ panels.

My nude obsession continues. Actually, it's only gaining steam. After a streak of blindingly bright neon trends, all things washed out have never looked chicer.
Christopher Kane Safety Buckle Leather Tote: Playing It Safe
I will always love the use of cool hardware, especially on a super-functional tote. The "safety buckle" motif is now almost as famous as the designer himself, Christopher Kane, or at least intrinsically linked to his designs, from his wild, belted dresses from Spring '07 to this season's smaller, sleeker bags.
Trompe-L'oeil Bags: Tricks Up Your Sleeve
While the adage, "things aren't always as they seem," may be old, it applies to some of the freshest designs out there. In English, trompe l'oeil translates to "deceives the eye," and these designers make that deception one that you'll welcome with a smile.
Top 5 Military-Green Bags: In the Army Now
I love green in all its many incarnations, from forest to moss to lime to mint, but it's military that's perhaps the most versatile of them all. On the tomboyish side of the spectrum, it eliminates the prissiness from any ensemble, but don't think the army-inspired shade can't feel fresh and alluring.
Chloé Alison Small Spotted Combo Tote Bag: On the Dot
The little girl in me will never get over my love of polka dots!
Snob Essentials Leopard Print Bags: Sweet Spots
Animal-printed calf hair is an autumnal must, but generally you have to cough up big time to get the look. Our solution? Faux-ny pony!
Marni Striped Felt Tote: Snob or Slob?
While lazy summer afternoons spent sprawled on a sandy beach are merely a distant memory, they will feel a little less far away with the assistance of this Marni tote.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - A group of lawmakers, including Senate President Joel Chaisson, is pushing to boost cigarette taxes by 70 cents per pack, with similar increases for cigars and chewing tobacco.
The change would increase the state tax on cigarettes from 36 cents per pack to $1.06.
The tax hike will be considered in the upcoming regular session. It faces a tough battle for passage, with significant Republican opposition and Gov. Bobby Jindal threatening a veto if the bill could get the two-thirds vote it needs.
Supporters of the proposal - led by Bogalusa Rep. Harold Ritchie - say it would help reduce tobacco consumption and raise $178 million annually for the state's budget.
A similar idea failed in the Legislature two years ago.

Deniable file system
Some years ago I did some design work on something I called a Deniable File System. The basic idea was the fact that the existence of ciphertext can in itself be incriminating, regardless of whether or not anyone can decrypt it. I wanted to create a file system that was deniable: where encrypted files looked like random noise, and where it was impossible to prove either the existence or non-existence of encrypted files.

The mainstays of the Southlake Carroll offense shined once again as the Dragons dominated Keller 52-17 in a District 4-5A game Friday night at Dragon Stadium.Running back A.J. Ezzard led the way, scoring five touchdowns for Carroll (5-0, 7-1). He rushed 21 times for 151 yards and four TDs, adding a fifth score on a 21-yard reception.Dragons quarterback Ryan Agnew completed 31 of 35 passes for 307 yards and three TDs. Agnew's favorite target was Luke Timian, who caught 13 passes for 134 yards and a touchdown. Keaton Duhon caught nine passes for 72 yards, while Parker Fentriss added a seven-yard TD reception.Keller (1-4, 4-4) was outgained 567-274 in yardage and had almost as many penalties as first downs, 10 to 12. The Indians' only sustained drive on offense ended in an interception at the Carroll 11. The Dragons scored just 1:03 into the game. They recovered a Keller fumble on the game's third play, which set up Ezzard's scoring pass from Agnew.Carroll scored even faster at the beginning of the second half, needing just 1:02. This time Ezzard scored on a 23-yard run, which capped a six-play, 70-yard drive and gave the Dragons a 38-14 lead.Keller was behind 14-0 before the Indians got their initial first down and was behind 31-14 at halftime.The Indians' first-quarter highlight was an 11-yard interception return for a touchdown by sophomore defensive lineman Houston Miller. Miller started the play blasting up the middle, but he dropped off into the left flat to intercept a screen pass and scored untouched. Keller's bright moment in the second quarter was the 76-yard run by Brandon Boyser, which set up a one-yard touchdown plunge by Dalton Mills.

So at last it's happened. Adaptive licensing has leapt from the pages of learned journals into the real world of European regulation. Is this the beginning of the end of binary decision-making on the merits of a new medicine? Has a half-century of the "yes/no" authorization process peaked, to be replaced by staggered approval, or progressive licensing? After years of reflection on the theoretical merits of a rolling approach, the European Medicines Agency last week launched a pilot project to test how well the theory might work in practice, with real medicines in development.
The agency is inviting companies to submit experimental medicines still in the early stage of clinical development as guinea pigs for this new approach—the latest attempt to strike the right balance between speeding up patient access to new medicines and ensuring patient safety. But to avoid giving the impression that caution is being thrown to the winds in the search for speed, the agency's emphasis is on how the new approach is "prospectively planned." Early authorization would be given for use of a medicine in only a restricted patient population, then a series of iterative phases of evidence-gathering would support subsequent adaptations of the marketing authorization, expanding access to the medicine to broader patient populations. But it goes further than the existing regulatory mechanisms of compassionate use or conditional authorization. Widening patient populations would have access to an innovative therapy in line with evolving information on the benefits and risks.
Hans-Georg Eichler, the agency's Senior Medical Officer, and one of the prominent advocates of adaptive licensing, says this could the way to "maximize the positive impact of new medicines on public health." And the move has won immediate and explicit applause from some industry organizations. The decision "is to be welcomed," said the UK's Biotech Industry Association, which has campaigned for the introduction of adaptive licensing for years. "We will encourage our members to respond to the agency's call for participation in the pilot project," said its Executive Director, Steve Bates.
Support from UK-based industry groupings is not surprising. Much of the pressure to move the adaptive licensing agenda forward has come from the UK, which has been mooting an early access scheme of its own for promising unlicensed medicines in areas of high unmet medical need. The UK regulatory authority has over recent months played a leading part in press for European-level action to make full use of all available legal flexibilities to get innovative products to patients.
How fast the revolution will come is not so clear. In time-honored European fashion, everyone is to get a voice—regulators, industry, health technology assessment bodies, organizations that issue clinical treatment guidelines, patient organizations... "All discussions will take place in a 'safe harbor' environment," insists the agency, which is aiming at "free exploration of the strengths and weaknesses of all options"—in development, assessment, licensing, reimbursement, monitoring, and pathways for use. And these options will be explored "in a confidential manner and without commitment from either side." Not a recipe for rapid action. The evolution of the approach itself is going to be adaptive too. The pilot phase will cover "as many programs as necessary" to gather knowledge and experience, address technical and scientific questions, and refine the design of the adaptive pathway for different products and indications. And "as the project progresses, the European Commission will examine the legal and policy aspects related to adaptive licensing in collaboration with the EU member states and by consultation with relevant stakeholders, as necessary."

Unsung Heroines: Queer Women Who Deserve Their Own Biopics
Bessie Smith (1894 — 1937)
BIOPIC-WORTHY BECAUSE: The bisexual singer (dubbed "The Empress of the Blues") was the most popular and talented blues singer of her time and influenced generations of jazz and rock vocalists that followed.
Bessie Smith
THE SUPPORTING CAST: Smith's first husband Jack Gee (whom she never bothered to divorce), and "The Mother of the Blues" Ma Rainey.
Rainey, who was also bisexual, is deserving of her own biopic. The legendary singer was arrested in Chicago in 1925 for hosting an "indecent" party (full of half-naked naked women). "Prove It On Me Blues," her 1928 song celebrating lesbianism, makes today's "I Kissed A Girl" sound positively chaste. (Can you imagine Katy Perry singing Rainey's song "Bull Dyker's Dream?" Me neither.)
Ma Rainey
SHOULD STAR: This project practically screams for the many talents of Queen Latifah (Chicago), who has long been rumored to be interested in playing the role of Bessie Smith on film. But who would have the chops to share the screen with the Queen and also embody the larger-than-life personality of Ma Rainey?
I nominate Grammy-winning singer Jill Scott, who has already played one blues legend, Big Mama Thornton (in Hounddog), and has proven she can act with as much charisma as she sings.
Queen Latifah (in Chicago) and Jill Scott (in Hounddog)
PLOT POINTS: The movie would require depiction of Smith's early impoverished life in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where she and her brother worked as street performers to help support their family. In 1912, Smith joins the Stokes troupe as a dancer (where she meets Rainey) and eventually develops her own stage act with which she tours the South.
In 1923, Smith is signed by Columbia Records. After that, Smith became the biggest headliner on the black Theater Owners Booking Association (T.O.B.A.) circuit and was the highest-paid black entertainer of her day. Her star would have likely continued to rise if not for the Great Depression, which nearly bankrupted the recording industry. That, along with the rise of "talkie" films, ruined the careers of many vaudeville players, including Smith
Smith's short life had all the dramatic elements needed for a good biopic, from her tragic death in a car accident at the age of 43 and her first husband's theft of the money raised for her proper burial, to bisexual rocker Janis Joplin's 1970 purchase of a tombstone for Smith's long unmarked grave.
TAKE A POPCORN BREAK: When Smith joins the cast of bad Broadway musical, Pansy, in 1923. The critics probably panned it for a reason.
SHOULD BE DIRECTED BY: Cheryl Dunye, whose 1996 Watermelon Woman has already set the stage for a journey back through history to find the truth about the life of a famous queer black performer from the 1930s.

What is Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar Fasciitis is a common cause of heel/foot pain. The Plantar Fascia is a flat band on connective tissue that connects the bones of your heel to your foot. It also provides support for your arch and has an important role in the biomechanics of the foot. As such it is a commonly injured area for people who are on their feet a lot of the time (athletes, nurses, tradies, retail etc.). Plantar Fasciitis can affect people at any age.
Massage Therapy and Treating Foot Pain (Plantar Fasciitis)
Plantar fasciitis, also known as heel pain or heel spur syndrome, refers to a clinical condition that causes pain in the heel of the foot. Sufferers typically report that the pain is worse first thing in the morning or after long periods of sitting.
The Benefits of Massage Pre and Post Pregnancy
You may have been told that you 'can't' get a massage when you're pregnant. This is because of pressure points in your wrists and ankles that, when stimulated, can cause the uterus to start contracting, as well as other concerns such as the comfort of the mother. Ironically, with all that extra weight and stress on your hips and back, pregnancy is one of those times when you might need a massage more than ever!
Postural Dysfunction and (and how massage can help)
Bad posture is more than just a matter of unsightly slouching. Long term posture issues can have debilitating effects and should be corrected as soon as possible. Repetition of bad habits like slouching, sitting incorrectly and allowing muscles to become inactive, can lead to postural dysfunction and imbalance. If these habits are continued for long enough, the spine and other joints can be pushed out of their normal alignment. Postural dysfunction and imbalance can cause many issues such as spinal dysfunction and joint degeneration.
How musculoskeletal therapy and massage therapy can treat sciatica
The term 'sciatica' refers to pain that is felt along the nerve roots of the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve is the longest single nerve in the human body, starting in the lower back and running through the buttocks and down the lower limbs. Sciatic pain may be felt in any of the areas. Sciatic pain has a variety of potential causes, including damage from a herniated disc, joint inflammation, spinal arthritis, or a locked facet joint. It can be the result of gradual wear and tear on the spine or an injury that occurs suddenly. Regardless of its cause, … Continue reading
Massage therapy can mitigate high blood pressure
The benefits that massage therapy can have on the circulatory system are well documented. Not only can a good massage improve circulation, can it can also help to mitigate the effects of high blood pressure (also known as hypertension.) Research has shown that regular massage as part of a holistic approach to managing high pressure can reduce stress levels, and over time lead to a reduction in blood pressure. High blood pressure is a serious health concern in Australia with more than 3.5 million Australians diagnosed with the condition, and many more undiagnosed. This makes addressing the condition through a … Continue reading
Some Simple Stretches to Relieve Neck Pain
Neck Pain and Neuromuscular Massage Therapy Massage can be the perfect non-invasive partner to treat neck pain, and as an extremely painful and uncomfortable condition, the right massage can provide much needed relief to restore movement and ease pain. Neck pain can be caused by many things, but most often is a result of sleeping in a poor position for an extended period. This causes the vertebrae to become twisted or condensed, placing pressure on sensitive nerve endings. If you suffer from neck pain, our qualified massage therapists can apply a tailored plan to key pressure points around the neck … Continue reading

Does the Orcon sale smack of short-term thinking?April 17 - 9am
The sale of state-owned Orcon is shrouded in mystery and appears to be yet another example of short-term thinking by the New Zealand government.
That is the view of the Labour Party, who are demanding the public know how much the telco has been sold for, believed to be in the region of $30-$35m.
With Techday one of the first to report the sale on Monday afternoon, the debate now focuses on the price tag – as Kordia claim ministers did not push for the sale.
"It was a board decision," said David Clarke, chairman, Kordia.
Yet the opposition believes the deal should still be made public, arguing the government is "duty bound" to tell New Zealanders the details of the deal.
"It was an important investment by Kordia and the return on that investment should be public knowledge," said Clare Curran, Communications and IT spokesperson, Labour.
"The bottom line is the Government should have decided whether Orcon is now a strategic asset and if it is an important means to drive uptake of ultrafast broadband.
"National has to explain whether it considered this when it allowed Kordia to make the sale and release the advice it received."
Twisting the knife in further, Curran claimed the "wheels are coming off the government's UFB scheme", claiming fewer people are signing up and the cost is becoming unmanageable.
"You would think it would consider having a nimble, innovative Telco an asset, rather than a short term means of getting cash," she argued.
"This reeks of the Government's usual short-term thinking.
"Selling Orcon off cheaply because they are short of cash isn't good planning.
"There should have been a wider strategic view of Orcon's role in getting the stumbling UFB rollout sorted.
"There are questions New Zealanders need answers to: Was it good value for money? And was Orcon a vital strategic asset for the Government given the broadband rollout?"
While the debating rumbles on however, the new-look Orcon looks set to name a new CEO this Thursday, with lead buyer Warren Hurst, managing director, Vivid Networks, refusing to comment on names for the role.
"It is now owned by New Zealanders," said Hurst, looking ahead.
"They bought it with New Zealand-based money and we are looking to develop this business and deliver exceptional services for exceptional value."
Was Orcon good value for money? And was Orcon a vital strategic asset for the Government given the broadband rollout? Tell us your thoughts below

Developers tour El Vado Motel April 18, 2014Posted by Ron Warnick in Motels, Preservation.
Tags: Albuquerque, El Vado Motel, NewLife Homes
The city of Albuquerque finally is pushing hard to have developers do something with the historic but long-closed El Vado Motel.
KRQE-TV in Albuquerque filed this report about developers touring the property this week:
A few weeks ago, the city released a request for proposals from developers. The deadline for submission is July 3.
The hope is someone will redevelop it into a boutique-type motel, with the rest for housing. The city will pick a developer by August, with construction targeted to begin in 2015. NewLife Homes, which has converted several historic Route 66 motels in Albuquerque into housing, reported is interested in the property.
Irish immigrant Daniel Murphy opened El Vado Auto Court Motel on Route 66 in 1937. It's cited as one of New Mexico's best examples of pre-World War II motels. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
El Vado closed in 2005 when new owner Richard Gonzales wanted to raze it for luxury townhouses. The city seized the property a few years later after a long fight to save it. Worldwide outcry from the Route 66 community was instrumental in saving the structure.
The near-loss that was El Vado convinced me eminent domain ought to be used to seize threatened protect properties that are on the National Register of Historic Places. Eminent domain often is cussed and discussed in many circles, but I suspect opposition to its use in such a context would be considerably blunted.

- 1. Shannon - April 18, 2014
No doubt if the El Vado would be reopened and brought back to its former glory it would be consistently packed with Route 66 travelers.
- Johnnie Meier - April 25, 2014
The potential for the success of the El Vado is underestimated. It has a prime location, across from the Albuquerque BioPark and within easy walking distance of Albuquerque Old Town.
- 2. RON JONES - April 19, 2014
I have a tattoo of the El Vado on my left arm.
If it was to come back as a motel I would stay there for sure.

Also, if you are dying to blood bolt whirls all the time this might help. Healers spread out just outside of the middle circle and perhaps even one player in the middle of the circle. Then ranged dps spread out along the back stairs area and then finally the melee dps and tanks can spread out on the front and side walls.
If biting people is your problem then this too might help. Have one person with raid debuffs showing on raid frames to call out to a person who has been bitten to bite another player and if that player cannot bite this player in time, bite a healer.

Hello all. In a lengthy call with RM and decided to come here for some answers whilst I wait for them to take their sweet time. I have new machines which I am currently building onto our existing CC3 network. Everything works great apart from our custom log on screen. The GPO that defines the setting for the banner message, screensaver and "Restart/Shutdown" settings are not being applied to these machines. I rebuilt a old machine, only to find the same thing happen. I have checked the settings in the RM Management tool, and also via System Management > All System Settings and the GPOs are listed and stated as enabled. Further more, gpresult gives me a list of applied and failed GPOs, and it's a long list of failed. Result
Now then, RM have already performed a remote session and had a look about not doing much. Just to clarify, I'm currently working with Server 2003 and XP SP3 clients. I have one through with EIS reinstall the respective apps for the components concerned initially but this problem seems to be much more than it started out to be. So, any ideas? Need more details, just ask. I need to solve this asap so I can build the rest of the new kit ready for the next term break.
