FRIDAY, April 13 (HealthDay News) -- For Hispanic patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), self-reported pain correlates most strongly with disability, according to a study published online April 5 in Arthritis Care & Research.
George A. Karpouzas, M.D., from the Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute, and colleagues investigated the determinants of disability among 251 Hispanics patients with RA from a single center. Cross-sectional factors linked with disability were identified and their impact was assessed on future disability six months later in a subgroup of 114 patients.
The researchers found that six parameters were independently associated with disability. The strongest association was seen for pain (P < 0.001), followed by irreversible articular damage, disease activity, depression, age, and fibromyalgia (P < 0.03 for all factors). Irreversible articular damage (P = 0.004), depression, disease activity, age, and pain (all P < 0.04) at baseline predicted disability six months later.
"Self-reported pain had the strongest relationship with disability; however, factors such as irreversible articular damage, depression and disease activity were more important in predicting future disability," the authors write. "Most of these factors are amenable to targeted interventions and should be addressed in an effort to improve functional outcomes."

Adhesives manufacturer Crespel & Deiters GmbH & Co. KG implemented Microsoft Dynamics® NAV to make operations more efficient and simplify its IT environment, which previously comprised several disjointed systems. Recently, the company upgraded to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 under the Technology Adoption Program. As part of the implementation, Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner Tectura AG deployed the solution together with its process manufacturing solution. Crespel & Deiters gained the ability to capitalize on opportunities for business efficiencies throughout the organization and further streamlined its IT environment by closely integrating the solution with applications in the Microsoft Office system. Today, Crespel & Deiters owns an efficient business infrastructure that lets it direct the future of the business with confidence.
Founded in 1858, Crespel & Deiters GmbH & Co. KG was one of the first German starch factories. Over time, a highly modern company with global business connections evolved to meet the growing industrial demands of the food industry. Today, the family company is Europe's market leader in adhesives for the corrugated cardboard and paper industry. "Our mainstay is wheat starch. It remains the basis for all our products," says Yusuf Becher, Manager of IT, Communications, and Internal Process Optimization at Crespel & Deiters.
Since 2001, the Ibbenbüren, Germany–based company has been working with Microsoft Dynamics® NAV. Its business management software sparked the creation of a diverse IT landscape, which consisted of several departmental systems. "By using Microsoft Dynamics NAV, we successfully integrated all processes and tasks into a single platform," recalls Yusuf Becher.
At that time, a flexible program structure, ease of use, and investment security were extremely important in regards to what Crespel & Deiters needed in its business management software. Microsoft® Gold Certified Partner Tectura AG assisted with the implementation of the Tectura manufacturing process business solution and helped to devise a special solution for quality management.
Once implemented, the business management software was constantly expanded and updated. Towards the end of 2007, Crespel & Deiters decided to participate in a pilot program to introduce the latest version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV. "We were already planning to upgrade to the latest version. However, this time, it was not solely a matter of upgrading the software. We also wanted to bring organizational change to the company. In particular, we wanted to integrate better with software in the Microsoft Office system," states Becher. The new technical capabilities of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 were very promising.
Under the Technical Adoption Program, Loryma was Crespel & Deiters's first subsidiary to completely migrate to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009, which included the Tectura manufacturing process solution. To avoid any unexpected surprises during the upgrade, the project team, consisting of Microsoft, Tectura, and Crespel & Deiters employees, built the entire IT landscape one step at a time. As such, the project team could test the solution under real-world conditions. Particular attention was focused on upgrading the business solution and the integration of solid business logic into the new role-based program structure. Loryma had already been using Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 for three months prior to the official launch, which gave Crespel & Deiters the distinction of being one of the first companies in the world to implement the latest version.
Once Microsoft Dynamics NAV had proven successful under real-world business conditions, it was officially introduced to the entire group in September 2008.
"Enterprise resource planning, financial accounting, and inventory management were also brought up-to-date, along with a special solution for quality management," explains Rafael Kutz, Director of the Tectura reengineering team. In addition, truck scales were connected via a Web service. "Microsoft immediately implemented all of our comments and suggestions and corrected errors quickly. The partnership was simply outstanding," describes Becher.
In January 2009, Crespel & Deiters implemented Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009. "The transition went smoothly and according to plan. Within three months, we completed the entire upgrade, including all of the necessary editing and developmental steps and various training courses," says Kutz. Even Becher is satisfied: "The switch to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 and the reengineering were well worth it. Today, we have a unified, modern, integrated system in place for all of our processes."
Crespel & Deiters GmbH & Co. KG is Europe's leading producer of wheat starch, which is used mainly as an adhesive in the paper and corrugated cardboard industry. Loryma, a Crespel & Deiters subsidiary, provides starch products for the food industry. A total of 168 employees generate sales of close to €92 million a year.

US online retail giant Amazon said on Monday it had cut ties with a security firm at the centre of allegations that foreign seasonal staff hired in Germany by Amazon were harassed and intimidated.
An Amazon spokeswoman said it had ensured that "the criticised security service is not used any longer, effective immediately", a day after a German government minister called for a probe.
A public television documentary broadcast last week alleged that workers brought in from crisis-hit countries such as Spain to help at Amazon warehouses faced bullying from security personnel, some of whom wore clothing associated with neo-Nazi groups.
It added that Amazon paid the workers less than advertised and that their belongings were regularly searched in the temporary housing they were provided.
"As a responsible employer of approximately 8,000 salaried logistics employees, Amazon has zero tolerance for discrimination and intimidation and expects the same from every company we work with," Ulrike Stoecker, spokeswoman for Amazon's German branch said in a statement emailed to AFP.
The US company, which has about 7,700 people on staff in Germany and hires additional temporary workers at peak times, said it was looking into the allegations and would not tolerate intimidation at its sites.
Hensel European Security Services, the company targeted in the documentary, also denied any wrongdoing.
Labour Minister Ursula von der Leyen told Sunday's Welt am Sonntag newspaper that any proof of wrongdoing could result in serious consequences for the temporary employment agency used by Amazon.
"If the investigation shows there is something to the accusations against the temporary placement agency then its licence is at risk," she said.

The concept of a wave exhibition at night, without wind in what essentially is a huge swimming pool, initially sounds ludicrous. But when you throw in a Red Bull jet ski, a tow rope, a five-foot artificial wave and the likes of Ricardo Campello, suddenly the possibilities become endless!
Report & Photos John Carter
(This feature originally appeared in the September 2014 issue of Windsurf Magazine. To read more features like this first, Print and Digital subscriptions are available. Prices include delivery globally for 10 x issues a year!)
Five years ago Danny Bruch proved that a windsurfer could be towed into the Siam Park wave by Jet ski and actually pull-of some pretty radical jumps after a few trials and tribulations of perfecting his idea. Then, in 2011, Bruch took the theory a stage further and held a local competition along with the likes of Alex Mussolini and Iballa Moreno, which was pretty successful but nowhere near the scale of this year's project. With Bjorn Dunkerbeck (Dunkerbeck-Eyewear) on board as sponsor of this year's Tenerife, the latest master plan was somewhat ambitious, with a super session after the main event that would allow 11 riders – E11=eleven guys – (not SUI-11 then? Ed.) to compete in the pool at Tenerife's infamous Siam Park waterpark. The smart sailors with their heads screwed on soon realized the media possibilities of qualifying, so went off in the super session in order to secure their slot for the night show. On the practice night, half of the riders could barely make it into the straps. At the point I had to leave to go shoot the official event closing ceremony, but rumour had it they kept the pool open for two more hours and by the end of the session some crazy moves were going down. Come the main event, everything was hanging in the balance. Would windsurfing emerge out of this looking cool, or, if the riders couldn't cope, it would be an enormous flop. The pressure was on from every angle. We were banking on the skill of 'Vilayta', the Jet ski driver and the eleven chosen riders to nail some huge moves for the crowds and put on a show. Any doubts were soon cast aside after the first few jumps when the likes of Bruch, Mussolini and Campello were launching rocket airs and huge crashes just metres away from the fever-pitch crowds in awe on the poolside. The show just had this instant electric atmosphere with the sailors pumped up, the audience going crazy and a multitude of ridiculous moves going down. Even without wind, it really felt like windsurfing was alive and kicking! Robby Swift nailed one of the craziest moves of his career, while Campello lapped up the attention and delivered some new wild moves to take the event victory. Here is what the 'Lucky 11' had to say about the night!

No wind? Use the plane propellers
Los Roques, in Venezuela, is a windsurfing paradise. Here, winds are steady and constant, almost all-year round. But when there's no wind, you've got plane propellers.
Welcome to Los Roques, the largest marine park in the Caribbean located 320 kilometers (200 miles) off the north coast of Venezuela. From December to June, the archipelago tastes trade winds of up to 25 knots.
The average wind at Los Roques is of 18 knots, so you rarely have problems sailing the breathtaking blue waters. Windsurfers are able to train and relax in any island of the archipelago.

1 26 15 morning call
4am main swell buoy readings:
6.2ft @ 12s from 296° (WNW)
5.6ft @ 13s from 317° (NW)
Pauwela (indicative of what's in the water on Maui's north shore)
6.7ft @ 13s from 322° (NW)
I'm sure the west side was good and that's where I'm going this morning to continue the celebration (which, in my particular case, never really stop every single day of my life).
As for the north shore, it's gonna be windy, choppy and mixed up with the windswell which is already significant at the Pauwela buoy.
The wind map below shows a good fetch and a bad one. You guys should be able to tell by now.
In the closeup below, I marked three wind directions:
And that is because that whole circulation is moving east pushed by the approach of the next front.
Windsurfing could and should happen on the north shore this afternoon, but my guess is that Hookipa is not going to look particularly clean. I haven't even looked at it since 48 hours, and I live 1 minute drive from it. What's the point? I know how onshore 6-8 feet look like...
Tomorrow is going to be a relatively small day before the next swell will start to show up late in the afternoon. But Wednesday, Thursday, Friday is when it should be really good, before the wind will turn all the way around the clock and start the cycle all over again.
The weather in Hawaii is so consistent that's sometimes it's not particularly stimulating to try to predict it...

Supporters of Obamacare who assert that the Republicans have offered no ideas to combat medical costs either forgot, or are unaware of, a televised meeting between the president and a number of Republicans on medical reform. It was held before Obamacare was passed and after the president had said he would listen to alternative ideas.
On the program there were 15 to 20 people seated at a U-shaped table with Barack Obama at the head of the table. U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., was there along with Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Muskogee, and another doctor from the Senate and others. Coburn and the other doctor did most of the talking and provided a wealth of good ideas on reforming the high costs of medical care.
After the meeting, the president thanked those present and left, never to mention those ideas or admit that they ever existed.

The U.S. government is defending the recent deportation of a four-year-old little girl who was born in the United States to undocumented immigrants.
On March 11th, despite her citizenship, Emily Samantha Ruiz was deported after officials detained her grandfather while the two were on their way back from a trip to Guatemala visiting relatives.
Selena Gomez has been wearing her purity ring less and less and her parents are worried that she might do something she will regret with her new beau Justin Bieber.
Mariah Carey's manager Louise McNail and her publicist Cindi Berger are the architects behind a lavish baby shower taking place this Sunday at the Beverly Hills Hotel for Mimi's yet-to-be-born twins. In typical Mimi fashion, the baby gift registry for the "pink and blue themed shower," reportedly includes a $2,000 custom-
Thalia announced today that she and hubby, music mogul Tommy Mottolla, are expecting their second child. Thalia indicated that the baby was due to arrive sometime this summer. Thalia and Tommy Mottola were married in December, 2000.
When we saw Penelope Cruz at the Academy Awards this past Sunday evening, our jaws dropped. The woman had a baby barely a month ago and looked absolutely amazing! As a matter of fact, Cruz was confident enough in her new curves that she chose a fitted and sparkly L'Wren Scott dress to highlight them. Did we mention how much we love this woman?
The speculation as to whether Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are expecting a boy or a girl has officially come to an end.
It's a madre's worst nightmare. Guatemalan immigrant Encarnacion Bail Romero, had her son taken away from her when she was detained for being in the country illegally back in 2007.

Javier Bardem is having the best week ever! Spanish newspaper El Pais is reporting that his wife, Penélope Cruz, gave birth to their first baby this weekend—just days before Javier Bardem found out that he was nominated for a Best Actor Academy award for Biutiful.

Each season the store changes to adapt to a particular theme in a building that once stored trailer cars and trucks. It now houses luxury items and has been internally reconstructed with design details of crystal and steel, while the original structure remains the same.
Established in Paris in 2003, Notify has rapidly made a name for itself as a luxury ready-to-wear brand, with particular emphasis on denim. With long standing experience alongside his mother - a men's tailor - and then with a Paris design school, founder designer Maurice Ohayon has infused his collections with the sartorial spirit of yesteryear of which he is nostalgic and which, for him, is the very definition of true luxury. Continuous research into materials and comfort along with resistance tests linked to rubbing and wear and tear take creation even further whilst preserving fundamentals.

Select groups and organizations embrace practices that perpetuate their inferiority. The result is the phenomenon we call "mediocrity." This article examines the conditions under which mediocrity is selected and maintained by groups over time. Mediocrity is maintained by a key social process: the marginalization of the adept, which is a response to the group problem of what to do with the highly able. The problem arises when a majority of a group is comprised of average members who must decide what to do with high performers in the group. To solve this problem, reward systems are subverted to benefit the less able and the adept are cast as deviant. Marginalization is a resolution of two tensions: marginalization of the adept for their behavior, and protection from the adept for the mediocre. The American research university is used as an example to describe the phenomenon and to formulate a theoretic argument. The forms and consequences of marginalization are discussed. Marginalizing the adept illustrates an anti-meritocratic behavioral pattern which serves to sustain social systems on which all people, however able, depend.

If a school can punish a child for playing with toy guns in his dooryard or posting a picture on his facebook brandishing a toy gun, then they can also punish a student who bullys another off-school grounds.
I don't think the schools should have any control over students when they are not on school premises, but you can't have it both ways. If Parents allow schools to punish kids who play with guns (or hunt) off premises, then Parents can't complain when schools punish kids who bully others off school premises.

I don't think he'll be thrown out of office… This guy has so much power in NYS that the chances these charges stick and actually force him to leave office are pretty slim.
He knows where the bodies are buried because he paid the hitmen and the gravediggers to bury the bodies!
He was earlier exposed for paying off women who were abused by Dem staffers with taxpayer monies and nothing came of that. At least 4 women were paid, and others that weren't exposed the payments to the press. A Republican took him to court and it was dismissed.

Keep in mind that she actually doesn't have a vote. She's a non-voting representative similar to other non-voting reps from Puerto Rico, American Samoa, etc.
They've been trying to make the District of Columbia a voting district for years, but that change would change how Taxes are collected and spent there.

Actually, you missed one! Adam Baldwin (currently on The Last Ship) is very outspoken and Conservative.
Also, Nick Searcy could play a great sleezy politician on the President's staff.
September 24, 2014 at 10:29am
How about Jeremy Renner as Harvath?
Or, Adam Baldwin as Harvath? He's conservative and a strong silent type, and this could make him action star! He's not a movie star, but a well-known TV star so price would be lower. The real question is who will play the love interest?
As for the President, I've always like Bruce Greenwood, and I believe he's played a president before.

Being a candidate in Nebraska, I'd be interested in what his view on Farm Subsidies, etc… is. Even the most conservative candidates support that because they couldn't get elected without supporting them.
From what I've heard he seems very conservative on Social and Economic issues, but I'm sure there will always be one issue we can disagree on.

@Jesuswasablackman: Ted Cruz is a Native Citizen because his mother is a Native American (ie: born in the US) and his father is Cuban who was working in Canada at the time. If his father like communism, why did he Cuba, the Communist Paradise?
Ted Cruz knows what it's like to live under Canadian Socialism, the kinder-gentler Socialism, and knows how bad that is compared to a Republic. President Obama has an idealized vision of how great Socialism is but has never had live under it.

Seeing as how the Catholic church has one of the largest worldwide memberships and the power the Pope has over world events and the fact that it is historic to have two living Popes, it makes sense that news from the Vatican would dominate media. The Westboros notwithstanding.
How many people can say they've lived through two Papal elections.
Not being a Catholic, I only view the Pope's comments through a political lens.

Has Russell Crowe converted to Islam? Why would he use an Arabic phrase for the leader of the Catholic church?
Wouldn't a Hebrew or even Latin term be more appropriate?

Happy Friday! Do you have any plans for the weekend? For me, this weekend is a lot about getting things done! Tomorrow is the last day in January (can you believe it?!) And there is so much to get done before then! The hubs will also be taking me on a date night and I am doing another quick video for all those in the Slim Down Challenge!!
But, before all this will come a great workout. My cardio and bum workouts have been lacking recently, so this workout looks wonderful! I am also wanting to do some running today and maybe even some Cross Fit this weekend!! We will see.
Here are a few other things I am excited about making, doing, and seeing!
Monday this will be launching and I just cannot wait!
Have you ever made this? It looks so yummy and just might have to be on my foodie list next week!
Did you know the Super Bowl was this weekend?! Who are you cheering for? I am going for commercials ;)
If you have not made these yet, I suggest dropping everything you are doing and making them now.

Submit your pet to the Pet Spotlight! Pet Name: Jerafiyell Owner: tamia_silverwing Breed: Bori About Jerafiyell: Televised! �Good evening everyone! Today, LIVE, standing right next to me, is none other than the famous Kiyoshi Paco, Haunted Woods adventurer!� �Hey, wha--� the blue Shoyru started as he was pulled unceremoniously towards the blonde-haired Usul, but broke off when he saw the large camera that he had been dragged in front of. He smiled uncertainly, though not looking entirely pleased, as if sizing up the situation. �Well, maybe he�s not famous yet, but this reporter believes that it�s only a matter of time,� the Usul declared through an impressive set of teeth that seemed to beg for a spot on a Neo Toothpaste commercial. This statement was greeted by whoops and cheers from the cameraman and the small crowd of onlookers that had gathered. Kiyoshi tried to move off surreptitiously, but wasn�t able. The reporter had somehow managed to grab hold of the collar of his jacket, and she wasn�t letting go in any hurry. �Um...� Kiyoshi said, aware of the camera thrust in his face and the shamelessly grinning reporter holding him there. �Oh, I think Mr. Paco has something to say,� she said delightedly, as if she had just witnessed a very slow baby�s first word. �Yeah, um, hi,� Kiyoshi said, for lack of anything better to say. �Beautiful day in Neopia Central...� �FAN-tastic!� the Usul exclaimed. �And what brings you to the Bazaar today?� �Um... just had to pick up a couple things...� �Oh! And what does the renowned Ghostchaser have to pick up on such a SPLENDID day?� �Nothing much, really... a scratchcard... milk and cheese... you know...� he said, trying to keep a hold on his backpack, but to no avail --the reporter grabbed it and flipped open the flap as if it were her own pack. �What�s this? It seems to be a brand-new ratchet!� �Actually, it�s a lug wrench.� �Mr. Paco!� she cried, obviously not capable of letting any type of inside information slip past, even if it was something like what kind of tools Kiyoshi had bought on a trip to the Neopian Bazaar. �We never knew you had an eye for mechanics!� �It�s for a friend,� he said quickly. It was true, and Jeri the Bori would be laughing his head off if he was watching this at home. �Oh? That�s what they all say,� she said, winking knowingly to the camera, as if Kiyoshi wasn�t watching the whole thing. He glanced at the camera, suddenly more wary than nervous. �Thank you, that was very fun. I think I�ll be going now.� He made to walk out of the camera�s sight, but the reporter grabbed his arm, and he was surprised at how strong her grip was, her nails digging in painfully. He bit his lip and tried not to wince as he was steered back in front of the cameraman, who he now saw was a yellow Zafara wearing a backwards baseball cap. �Mr. Paco, how about an interview?� �What? Noooooyyyeah okay,� he agreed as her nails dug in even farther. �Excellent! Thank you so much!� the Usul trilled ecstatically. �Just think -- me, Tanya Deanyn, an average Neopian, interviewing the one and only Kiyoshi Paco! Do you have any idea how exciting this is?� �Oh, I can only imagine.� �Unimaginable!� she exclaimed. �Anyways, to start off... describe your current employment.� �Umm... it�s kind of complex....� �Professional spook hunter?� �Er, no....� �Defender of Neopia?� �I don�t think so.� �Shoyru Soldier?� �What -- no!� �Surely, Mr. Paco,� the Usul said, scandalized, �you cannot be -- unemployed.� �No, I�m just kind of... self-employed... you know, troubleshooting, problem-solving....� �Oh, you mean -- Crisis Management.� Kiyoshi raised an eyebrow. �If you say so.� Tanya the Usul turned directly to the camera. �How about that,� she breathed in amazement. �Crisis Management.� Kiyoshi would have left then and there, however, she had conveniently forgotten to let go of his arm. �So, Kiyoshi, being involved in Crisis Management, I�d imagine you�ve had quite the adventures.� �Well, maybe...� Adventures they may be, but Kiyoshi often found it hard to talk about them. �Oh, Kiyoshi, don�t be coy, we�ve all read about it in the Neopian Times -- Desperate duels in the sky? Multiple Snowbeast victories? There�s article after article about it!� �Yes, but who writes them if they weren�t there?� �There are many secrets in the world,� she said dismissively. �Perhaps they were written by a spy.� �I can�t believe I�m having this conversation.� �Me neither!� Kiyoshi once more tried to pull his arm away, but without success. �Okay, last question! What does the future hold for the Ghostchasers?� The Shoyru had thought he�d just spotted something a ways down the sidewalk, but with a blink, it was gone. Distractedly, he replied, �Oh, I�ve been doing a lot of thinking about my esca-- my future; I�ve been doing a lot of thinking about my future, yeah.� He cleared his throat, coming back to reality. �But there are many secrets in the world,� he said with a smile. Someone screamed. The camera jerked and swiveled around to face the source of the noise. Something bellowed, sending some of the pets on the street scattering. Over the crest of a hill came a great, hideous lump, covered with matted, muddy white fur. It paused to let out another howl from a snout full of jagged, razor-sharp teeth, then came running down at them with terrific speed. �Run!� Kiyoshi cried. �It�s the Snowbeast!� In a panic, the pets gathered on the street surged back, fleeing in horror towards the safety of their neohomes. The air became thick with shouts and screams now. Dumbfounded, Tanya the Usul and her cameraman joined the throng of escaping neopets, dropping the camera in their haste. Kiyoshi, however, made no move to run, only stood there smiling broadly as the Snowbeast descended. The creature slowed when it neared Kiyoshi. It paused to pick up the camera in clawed, furry paws. �Now where�s the off-switch?� it muttered in a muffled voice. �There we are.� Kiyoshi grinned. �Aren�t you a little short for a Snowbeast? From what I hear in the Neopian Times, they�re at least half a mile high.� �Oh, at least,� Jeri the Bori said, yanking off the mask to reveal very tussled hair and a grin at least as insane as Kiyoshi�s. �You know that was all live, right?� �I�m sure the finale was a blast with the Neopian public.� �Yes, well, after about thirty seconds I figured I�d better come rescue you. �It seems to be a brand-new ratchet.� Huh.� He snorted, then looked down at himself, wiggling his toes as if intrigued by the white, matted fur that lay over top of his own red coat. �Do you like it? I was intending to save it for next Hallowe�en and try an� scare Tyra clean out of her Split pelt, but I figured this was a worthy occasion.� �Sure was. Thanks.� �Don�t mention it mate.� He hefted the camera. �Think we should return it?� �Definitely. They�re going to want some solid footage of this.� �My thoughts exactly. Let me pull off this rotten costume first. I�ll tell them how you defeated the Snowbeast with a single blow.� �How creative.� �Not at all.� And with that, they walked off in the direction of the Neopian News Network building.

Share this news story The Spanish DJ and producer is set to release the latest mix CD for German techno giants Tresor. Oscar Mulero is set to release a single disc mix CD on Tresor later this year. Mulero is one of the most respected DJs in Spain's electronic music scene, and has been DJing professionally for over twenty years. Originally Mulero began playing gothic rock and EBM, but this changed in 1991 when he founded Madrid's Omen club, which became the country's techno mecca. As time progressed, Oscar began to move towards the harder American sounds of Jeff Mills and Joey Beltram, before embracing the UK school of Surgeon and James Ruskin et al. It's this blend of tougher UK and US sounds that make up the foundation of Under Review, which comprises of tracks that have been released on Tresor throughout the years. Jeff Mills, Surgeon, James Ruskin, Robert Hood, Drexciya, Female and Juan Atkins all feature, with Maurizio, Pacou, Steve Rachmad and Mulero himself representing the European sound of the time. Tracklist 01. Shifted Phases – Dance Of The Celestial Druids 02. Sterac – Liteon 03. Model 500 – Light Speed 04. Sterac – Spector 05. Daniel Bell – Acid Phreak 06. Drexciya – Triangular Hydrogen Strain 07. Infiniti – Electric Circus 08. James Ruskin – Lahaine 09. Robert Hood – Home 10. Jeff Mills – Flood 11. Robert Hood – Minus 12. Jeff Mills – Robot Replica 13. Scan 7 – Random Soul 14. Pacou – The Guards 15. Pacou – Flex 16. Surgeon – Decay 17. Female – Serve (Re-Group Edit) 18. Oscar Mulero – Still The One I Was 19. X-103 – 10,000 Chariots 20. Jeff Mills – Late Night 21. X-101 – Sonic Destroyer 22. Pacou – Fuel 23. Surgeon – Box 24. Surgeon – At The Heart Of It All 25. Drexciya – Dr. Blowfin's Black Storm Stabilizing Spheres 26. Drexciya – Under Sea Disturbances 27. Jeff Mills – The Keeping Of The Kept 28. Maurizio – M4 29.

OSCAR MULERO ( WARM UP Rec. | POLEGROUP) - SPAIN Oscar Mulero's DJ career has been as prolific and long lasting as the development of dance music. As a key figure in this evolution, Oscar has always absorbed new trends and kept his finger on the pulse of electronic dance music, from the end of the 80's right up to the present day. It is impossible to understand the phenomenon of this DJ in Spain without taking into account his tireless work behind the decks for more than a decade. Oscar began as a DJ at the end of the 80's in Madrid, in the most experimental clubs of the city such as Imposible, Capital, Kitch and Babia, playing Gothic Rock and EBM, the most important styles at the time. In the 90´s he began to play at the legendary club New World (Madrid), the most influe..View the full artist profile
