We want to take our stage adaptation of Studio Ghibli's 'Princess Mononoke' to more people. Help us do it!
About this project
Stretch Goal Reached:
Thank you everyone who's helped us hit our stretch goal! We aren't setting a new one right now, but please continue to spread the word about the project, the more we can raise the better chance we have of bringing this show to the maximum amount of people.
Stretch Goal:
We are now pushing for a Stretch Goal of £7000 to be able to pay everyone involved in the first run of Princess Mononoke a 'thank-you' fee for their work for the show. Please help us reach it!
With the kind co-operation of Studio Ghibli, Whole Hog Theatre presents the world's first theatrical adaptation of Hayao Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke.
The Studio Ghibli classic and epic ecological fable Princess Mononoke, written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, will be faithfully re-told for the stage in Whole Hog Theatre's adaptation using giant puppets, physical storytelling and original live music.
It is such an honour to have been given the opportunity to stage such a loved film. The whole team are huge fans of Studio Ghibli and Mr Miyazaki's work and so passionate about bringing this project to life. We want nothing more than to perform it to as many people, and in as many places, as possible and we need you to help us.
There are so many people who want to see the show. Just check out our Twitter and Facebook pages for all the messages of support. These guys have also got behind us - check out their video (skip to 49 seconds in):
If everyone else is as excited about it as we are, then we hope that generous people will pledge what they can – a little from many can go a long way!
The film tells the story of a young warrior Ashitaka. Cursed by a demon god whilst defending his village, he must leave his home forever to seek a cure. In the forbidding forests to the west, he is forced to reconcile the warring human forces and the animal deities of times past. In the midst of this bitter and bloody conflict, he meets the wolf god Moro and her human child San: Princess Mononoke. Whole Hog Theatre aims to create a faithful adaptation which the audience will leave feeling the same as they did the first time they watched the film. We will use recycled materials in our set, costume and props in order to honour the film's ecological ethics and have as little impact on the environment as possible. There is no desire to alter the film's narrative and atmosphere or to add a 'new spin' on the story – only to re-tell it in a different form.
WHOLE HOG: noun, informal
1. the furthest extent; everything
2. to do something completely or thoroughly
We specialise in adaptation and have always been fascinated by its possibilities and challenges. We strive to produce work that explores the outer limits of our and our audience's imaginations. We enjoy the challenge of staging the unstageable and the bold concepts, physical storytelling and explorations into puppetry which permeate our work are all about raising the expectations of the worlds which can be created onstage.
We are a volunteer lead and run organisation and everyone who has worked with us in the past and at present does so for free. We are an open company committed to finding and promoting new talent across all areas of production - everyone deserves a chance to prove what they're made of. We offer this opportunity to anyone with the talent and determination to make it happen. We are a company who are constantly excited and inspired by the books we read, the people we meet, the stories we hear and the theatre we experience. We promote artistic integrity, theatrical accessibility and freedom of imagination in all that we do.
We are a small company, but we have very big ideas and a hell of a lot of commitment! Please read on, find out more and click on the "BACK THIS PROJECT" button to offer your support.

Whole Hog Theatre is a not for profit organisation and any donation is tax deductable to the full extent allowed by the law. Every penny you donate goes towards prolonging the life of this production, creating more performance dates and all the physical and sizeable touring and production costs inherent within this. We want to bring Princess Mononoke to as many people as possible to show our thanks for the incredible support so far!
Risks and challenges
There are always risks involved in creating any large scale theatre project and this is our biggest yet, but we know we can deliver. Our experience working together at University and the productions we have staged since (often on a shoestring budget!), give us confidence that we can successfully calculate risk and meet challenges head-on. We are very good at working within our means, we are adaptable and flexible and whatever challenges we face, we know we have the determination and ingenuity to solve them. If this campaign is unsuccessful, we can still produce our one-week-run of Princess Mononoke in London, but without further funds from either Kickstarter or other sources, there is no way we will have the financial means to take the project any further than that.

Airport News
Third runway at Heathrow 'crucial for London'
Mon, 25 Feb, 2008
Go-ahead on the third runway at London Heathrow Airport is vital to protect the city's status as Europe's financial and business centre, it has been claimed.
Sir Richard Branson, president of Virgin Atlantic, warned that the airport needs to continue to expand in order to compete with other major European cities.
"Routine delays and circling overhead by all airlines, manoeuvres that simply increase pollution levels, will only be stopped with extra capacity," he said.
Should the protests against the airport expansion be successful, businesses are likely to move their global headquarters to other cities such as Frankfurt, taking thousands of jobs with them, Sir Richard added.
Research released by British Airways today has claimed that weather delays at London Heathrow Airport could be cut by two-thirds if the two existing runways were utilised in a more flexible way.
Arrivals are currently restricted to one runway at a time, unlike London Gatwick Airport where a "mixed mode" operation is used.

Cosmetics: Is Change Finally Coming?
For months, rumours suggesting that the 2013 EU sales ban on animal-tested cosmetics could be weakened or delayed have intensified. The majority of the European population is opposed to animal-tested cosmetics, and caring consumers across Europe have protested vehemently to ensure the deadline is maintained. The ban is enshrined in the current EU directive for good reason: to attempt to assess the safety of cosmetics ingredients using defenseless rabbits and mice is not only cruel but also completely ineffective and puts human safety at risk, as the results cannot accurately predict human … Read more.

If you are wondering why the new owners of the Lyric Theatre Hamilton (formerly the Westside on King Street West) elected to rename the original Kenmore movie house and one time CHCH-TV studio the Lyric Theatre, you need to start by exploring the history of live performance in Hamilton. Flash back to Vaudeville era venues like the Grand, Griffin, Temple, Savoy and Lyric. These grand theatres once defined live performance in Hamilton, but have since slipped through our hands leaving us only with nostalgic memories. This is where it all starts with the new owners of the Lyric Theatre Hamilton.
There are 6 musical theatre production from October 2011 to May 2012 so far.
That represents 47 performances - all Cabaret Style with seating at 180 per performance.
There is currently 1 concert being announced for November 5th, 2011.
Stay tuned for more concert announcements.
This is cabaret style seating at 180 seats.

[Chrome] Add tags and screenshots to bookmarks with Dewey Bookmarks
Posted By Kent On March 17, 2014 @ 2:30 AM In Browsers | 3 Comments
[1]If only Chrome has a better bookmarks manager but alas, it doesn't. So we are left without a choice but to make the most out of its native bookmarks tool but that doesn't mean that we cannot improve the way it works and even the way it looks. What I'm saying is that there are a bunch of apps on the Web Store that you can use to customize the look and feel of your Chrome browser's bookmarks manager. One good example of this is the browser app called "Dewey Bookmarks".
Main Functionality
Dewey Bookmarks is a simple browser app for Chrome that you can use to improve the look and feel of your browser's native bookmarks manager. With the help of this app, you can add custom tags and screenshots to your bookmarks. You can even organize and sort them by date, title and URL. Aside from this, Dewey Bookmarks also flaunts a grid-like interface in which you can just scroll and view your bookmarks through their screenshots or thumbnails. It also adds a large search box on top of your bookmarks list.
[3]With Dewey Bookmarks, you can browse your bookmarks in an entirely different manner. As a matter of fact, you can use this app instead of viewing your bookmarks thru your browser's default bookmarks manager. Anyways, what's great about this app is that it flaunts a "grid-like" layout that lists down all of the websites and links that you've bookmarked. So instead of viewing your bookmarked items as nested folders, you get to view them all as tiles with screenshots. You also get to manage your bookmarked items using custom tags. Speaking of which, it is also important to note that this browser app will treat the folders in your bookmarks managers as tags.
Another interesting feature of this app is its custom search function. By default, you can just type a keyword or phrase on its search bar and it will give you a list of results regardless of the item's tag, title or URL. Now, if you want to narrow down your search, you can just use its custom search commands like "tag:{tag}", "url:{url}" and "title:{title}". Say, for example, if you want to search for items with the "tech" tag, you can just type the command "tag:tech" sans the quotes.
Anyways, what I like about Dewey Bookmarks is that it's easy to use. It's also lightweight and responsive and it gives a new flavor to your browser's plain-looking list of bookmarks. I just noticed that it is focused more on improving the way your bookmarked items are being presented so it lacks options for better bookmark management. Nonetheless, it serves as a decent choice for those who wants to view their bookmarked items in a grid-like style with screenshots as thumbnails.
I just find it a bit disappointing that it could take a while before the screenshots for your bookmarked pages would fully appear. This usually happens if you have a lot of bookmarks. Other than this, the said browser app will also not allow you to select and delete multiple items at once. It also doesn't offer any other layout styles. It would be nice if it would add more layout choices like small thumbnail view, large thumbnail view, list view, etc.
If you want to try a different way of browsing through your bookmarks, then you might as well try using Dewey Bookmarks. What's great about it is that it lets you add custom tags and screenshots to your bookmarked items. This way, you can quickly get a glimpse of what each link is all about. It may not be the best-looking bookmarks tool that I've seen but it is still worth checking out.

Providence may be the capital of the smallest state in the country, but it has plenty of things to do for urban adventurers. Any Providence guide will list the many shops, eateries, and museums in the downtown area, but it's often the lesser known attractions that are the most interesting.
The performing arts are a big part of Providence's culture. The city is home to the Tony Award-winning Trinity Repertory Company, Rhode Island Philharmonic, and Opera Providence. The Festival Ballet Providence's 20-plus dancers come from six different countries and perform for the Providence public roughly 30 times each year. From early spring through early fall, residents can participate in the outdoor multisensory event Waterfire Providence or view artwork from the city's local artists at Gallery Night.
There are often special Providence deals to be found at Providence Place, the city's largest mall with over 170 dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. There are more things to do than just shopping. The mall has a both a movie theater and an IMAX theater. For a more intimate shopping experience, take a stroll down Thayer or Wickeden Street.
Since Providence is home to Johnson & Wales University's College of Culinary Arts, foodies have plenty of options around the city. Chez Pascal, Gracie's, and Hemenway's Seafood Grill & Oyster Bar are local favorites, but there are plenty of multicultural options as well. Los Andes on Chalkstone Avenue excels at Peruvian cuisine. No guide to Providence would be complete without mentioning the Portuguese influence found in the Cape Verdean community or the top Italian eateries located in the Federal Hill neighborhood.
Despite its metro feel, there are a few outdoor things to do in Providence. Trivia buffs will enjoy a stroll around the city to seek out the places that movies such as "There's Something About Mary," "Dumb and Dumber," and "Federal Hill" were filmed. The Woonasquatucket River Bikeway offers scenic biking trails, while the Providence River Walk is well suited for an afternoon jog.

The Pigs of the Lazy 5 Ranch
Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pig
Pot-bellied pigs can be easily discerned from other pig breeds by their size, upright ears and straight tail. Although they have a pot belly and a swayed back, these are not indicative of weight. Pigs in proper weight still have the sway and belly, but the hip bones can easily be felt with minimal pressure . Read more about Vietnamese Pot Bellied Pigs >>
Hampshire Hog
The Hampshire pig is a domestic swine breed characterized by erect ears and a black body with a whitish band around the middle, covering the front legs. The American National Swine Registry notes that this is the third "most recorded breed" of pigs in the United States, and probably the oldest American breed of hogs.

Annual snowfall: 400 inches
Vertical drop: 2,410 feet
Skiable acres: 1,365
One-day lift ticket: $56
Perfect for: Hard-charging powder-hounds who think "luxury" means free parking
Why here: Perched at the top of the Continental Divide, Loveland's 92 trails and high-alpine bowls are usually deserted, save for a devoted Denver fan base. It's also just an hour's drive from the airport, which—given I-70's weekend gridlock—could mean packing an extra day or two of skiing into your trip. So what's the catch? For starters, Loveland has no base village, no slopeside hotels, no ski valets, and no heated sidewalks—or sidewalks, period, for that matter. And its terrain is some of Colorado's most exposed (head-to-toe Gore-Tex is a good idea). But if you're looking for an affordable Colorado fix or you're on the springtime hunt for good corn (Loveland stays open until early May), you'll fall for this locals' favorite.
The highlight: Views of the Rockies from the 12,700-foot summit of Chair 9—they're worth the risk of frostbite.
Sleep for cheap: There's no lodging at Loveland, but the quaintness of Victorian-styled Georgetown (pictured)—founded as a mining camp in 1859—makes up for the ten-minute drive to the slopes. Rooms at the Georgetown Mountain Inn are done up in rather dated mountain style, but there's an indoor pool for the kids, and the views can't be beat. (Watch for bighorn sheep outside your window.)
Ski-and-stay packages for the Georgetown Mountain Inn start at $156 per day for the room and two adult lift tickets (a child's lift ticket is an additional $20); 303-569-3201; www.lovelandreservations.com/skiandstay.html

TP-Link TL-PA511 AV500 Gigabit Powerline Adaptor Starter Kit review
TP-Link's latest HomePlug kit is comprised of two HomePlug adaptors, two Ethernet cables and a configuration disc. Each adaptor has a single Gigabit Ethernet port, so you can attach a PC, smart TV or games console to your router over your home's wiring - handy if your device doesn't have a Wi-Fi adaptor or if you're struggling to get a strong enough wireless signal around your home. The TL-PA511 kit adheres to the fast 500Mbit/s HomePlug standard, which means it's perfect for streaming high-definition video and other media from your network to your smart TV or other device.
Setting up the TL-PA511 kit takes no more effort than plugging the adaptors in to mains sockets and pressing the Pair button on each adaptor. After a minute, the two adaptors are networked and traffic is protected with 128-bit encryption. The TL-PA511's setup utility lets you configure privacy, Quality of Service and security settings, but it's very basic in appearance and options and its cramped setup is hard to use. In our tests we saw data transfer rates of 139.8Mbit/s, which is what we expect from 500Mbit/s HomePlug kit. The TL-PA511 adaptors run hot, but this didn't seem to affect their performance.
At just £60 for two Gigabit Ethernet HomePlug adaptors, the TL-PA511 starter kit is good value, but for just £10 more you can get a pair of Solwise NET-PL-500AV-PIGGY HomePlug adaptors, which have pass-through plug sockets so that you plug other devices in to them such as your laptop or a lamp. If you have plenty of power sockets and don't need passthrough sockets, though, TP-Link's kit is very good value.

Coronado Biosciences Announces Phase 1 Results Of CNDO-109 In AML Presented At The American Society Of Hematology
Dr. Panagiotis Kottaridis commented, "In my experience it is unusual for any patient with AML to have subsequent CRs longer than their previous CRs. In this study, the majority of patients experienced this after treatment with CNDO-109 activated NK cells. This finding demonstrates that CNDO-109 may have a significant role in treating AML patients and supports further development of the product."
Coronado Biosciences expects to file an IND on CNDO-109 with the US FDA in the first quarter of 2012 and initiate a Phase I/II dose escalation trial in AML patients shortly thereafter.
CNDO-109 was discovered by Dr. Mark Lowdell, Director of Cellular Therapy & Biobanking at Royal Free Hampstead NHS Trust and Assistant Professor and Senior Lecturer in Hematology at University College London.
About CNDO-109
CNDO-109 is a novel anti-cancer drug that primes natural killer (NK) cells without the need for cytokine (IL-2) treatment and shows significant potential for the treatment of hematological and solid tumors. CNDO-109 has produced impressive results in a Phase I clinical trial in patients with AML and demonstrated preclinical activity in multiple myeloma, breast cancer, prostate cancer and ovarian cancer.

February 2010 Archives
The Family Jewels
To make it in the modern day pop world requires ruthless determination and unfettered self-interest. You not only have to reveal your all in interviews, photoshoots and on YouTube videos, you also need to use blogs, tweets and Facebook to help develop - and stay connected to - a notoriously fickle fanbase.
On nearly all these levels, 24-year-old Greek/Welsh wunderkind Marina Diamandis has got what it takes to compete. And quite possibly succeed. And while Marina may hope her Diamonds are forever, they don't actually exist as a band. So she's a conceptually-minded go-ahead gal with a reasonably distinctive big swirly synth'd and string'd-up keyboard sound.
She's like Mika in stiletto heels, although it's a bit premature to pronounce her the new Kate Bush - a tired comparison trotted out for any girl singer who engages in am-dram pop theatrics.
Professing to be a mix of fairytale and autobiography, The Family Jewels starts with the song Are You Satisfied? where Marina sings about herself in the third person. And so it continues. Marina has some of La Roux's feisty attitude, but her songwriting can lack depth and appear hackneyed.
I Am Not A Robot, for instance, surely has no need to exist in a world where the likes of Grace Jones, Kraftwerk and David Bowie have left their mark.
The vocals are impressive - as you'd expect from someone who, reportedly, insisted on 482 attempts to get one song, The Outsider, just as she wanted it.
If that doesn't suggest Marina has a slightly over-developed sense of her own importance, get a load of this from the album's press release.
"It is a body of work," she pontificates, "largely inspired by
the seduction of commercialism, modern social values, family and female sexuality.
"My only hope is for it to be enjoyed and consumed as a story and theory that encourages people to question themselves."
Calm down love, it's a fairly good album, not the second coming.
American V1: Ain't No Grave
The final years of Cash's career continue to amaze. These previously unreleased recordings are typically remarkable, the sound of a man battling love, fear, hate, greed, envy, ego and life itself. Cash passed away in 2003, but with the abundance of music that has been released since, it's as if he never left.
The Magician's Private Library
There's oodles of charm and balmy electronica to soothe the ravaged soul on this debut from jolly Holly - an anti-folk filly made good. She's aided no end by TV On The Radio man Dave Sitek's plush production.
The Electric Kool Aid Cuckoo Nest
Oh dear, oh dear, it's yet more young people over-conceptualising under-developed songs. Eight Legs are fine in small doses, but struggle over the long haul to distinguish their indentikit indie with decrepit takes on the 60s and the decade's drug culture. From a band who currently soundtrack an anti-binge drinking campaign that sounds a bit rich - ie poor.
Excellent, long overdue compilation tracing the golden era of the great pioneering Ghanaian/British band. A spicy mix of hi-life, calypso, funk, jazz and a barrelfull of sonic joy. To be applied liberally and used often.
You might think that when actors are working on a dark, dramatic film, there's a serious atmosphere on the set. But Emily Blunt says this couldn't be further from the truth and that she loves to work on such movies because they guarantee a good laugh.
"I'm always surprised when I do a drama or a dark movie how much fun people have," the 26-year-old actress grins. "I find you laugh more on this kind of set than you do on a comedy."
Emily's latest movie - the remake of the classic horror film The Wolfman, in which she co-stars with Benicio del Toro and Sir Anthony Hopkins - was no exception.
"I was lucky to work with people who like a laugh," she says. "Benicio and Anthony are wonderful storytellers. I had days where I couldn't believe how magical my job was.
"I remember one time it was raining and we were filming at Chatsworth House. So we went inside and were huddled around a fire dressed in furs from the movie. We just listened to Anthony Hopkins telling us stories from his life."
The Fun Lovin' Criminals have been away, waylaid for the past five years in a typically tiresome rock 'n' roll contractual shakedown, involving management, lawyers, a record company or two... and, of course, a whole lotta moolah.
Now, legal business put to rest, they are back with their best, most diverse album in years, the independently released Classic Fantastic. Their new single - the album's title track - presents a chance for yours truly to scrounge a part in the band's new video.
The location is a former 19th-century prison in the basement of an East London town hall. Plumes of dry ice wreath the band - New Yorkers Huey Morgan, Brian 'Fast' Leiser (both now both relocated to the UK) and their man mountain of a drummer, Leicester-born Mark Francis Reid (aka Frank) - as they are being marched, cuffed and in leg irons, to the cells by a particularly vicious, baton-wielding New York cop.
"Look at this," cries Huey, 41, raising his wrists. "You see how they treat the artist in this business?"
Huey intimates it's not the first time the Criminals have felt the force of the law. "But it's the first time I've been in leg braces," he adds. "Man do they hurt."
Cert 15, 102mins
Sometimes you just can't avoid a movie's bad buzz. During The Wolfman's tortuous two-year journey from storyboard to screen, the first director walked out, the composer was hired, fired and then rehired. Reshoots and re-edits were also ordered after dismal test screenings.
Incredibly, it's even rumoured that some scenes were shot with no a director at all.
Now, finally, more than a year late, The Wolfman prowls into cinemas - and what a pitiful beast it is. Funny when it's meant to be scary, boring when it's meant to thrill and boasting a monster resembling Bungle from the kids' show Rainbow, if this mangy mongrel limped into a vet's it would be put down on the spot.
Benicio Del Toro plays travelling actor Lawrence Talbot who returns to his family's country estate when his brother vanishes. Teaming up with his estranged dad (Anthony Hopkins) and sister-in-law Gwen (Emily Blunt) to solve the mystery, it's not long before he himself is attacked and starts sprouting hair when the moon is full.
On paper, this online-only shooter sounds amazing, with three factions duking it out for territory in battles with a possible 256 players competing on a single map.
Ambitious: scale It promises action on a scale that Modern Warfare's multiplayer modes can only dream of, but sadly falls short of its lofty potential. It's all well and good having that many players battling at once, but what do you do with them all? Technically, it works ridiculously well, with no noticeable lag. Graphical compromises have been made to accommodate the number of players on screen at once, but MAG still stands up well against other shooters of this generation. However, the extra scale adds no depth to the tried and tested gameplay. If anything, it waters down the excitement of smaller-scale death matches.
It's almost impossible to co-ordinate any real tactical offence, which is surely the main draw of large-scale frag-fests. This ailment can be alleviated slightly by having a vocal team leader, but whether anyone pays attention is up to them.
Glory hunting, gung-ho teammates mean that you're more likely than ever to be infuriatingly gunned down time and time and again.
Extra no depth To keep the action running at a steady pace, all but the main warfare is very stripped back. This means there is little to do while waiting to re-spawn, and there's only a fairly basic levelling system between bouts. MAG, given time and the right collection of dedicated players, could yet evolve into something very exciting.
The hardware obviously has no problems supporting the mad numbers, and all the basic shooting components are solid.
However, until the casual players return to their Modern Warfare matches, MAG remains decidedly average.
Wii £29.99
If you're old enough to remember Japanese animation Battle Of The Planets, you're in for a treat here as the Tatsunoko anime stable pairs up with characters from classic Capcom games in one of the best 2D fighters out there.
Fans of Capcom's Marvel Vs. Capcom series will feel right at home here. Stringing combos together, juggling opponents in mid-air and tactically switching between your three chosen combatants are all essential.
While UK players are unlikely to recognise many of the Tatsunoko characters, you shouldn't let that put you off as each is well balanced and fun to play in their own right. There's also plenty to sink your teeth into thanks to constant rewards, such as character unlocks, in the single player mode.
It may not have much competition on the Wii, but TVC would be considered a classic fighter regardless of which console it appeared on.
Dead Flowers ★★★★
Her voice is as sweet as Saturday night whisky and rings as clear as a Sunday church bell. In this seven-track appetiser for her debut album, including the mournful Stones lead track, 22-year-old Nashville gal Caitlin shows that the spirit of honky tonk queens such as Loretta Lynn lives on in good hands.
Vlad The Impaler ★★★
One of the few big league UK rock bands with a definite handle on the muscular dance groove thing weighs in with a storming live favourite from their acclaimed West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum. A monster moonboot beat, snake charmer guitar, frazzled synths and glass-shattering effects combine to produce a wonderfully enlivening sonic stew.
Could You Be The One? ★★★
No relation to the song of the same name by the late, lamented Hüsker Dü, this still highlights Kelly Jones' pop craftsman credentials. The song's underlying anticipation is gently layered around the anchoring icy guitar riff, and the build-up to the chorus is signalled with a swooning close harmony cascade. User-friendly, post-Oasis Britpop.
Mayday ★★
With his irrepressible lust for life out in front, Zimbabwean-by-way-of-Hackney newcomer Tinashe plays, sings and produces all the songs on this package of cosmopolitan modern dancepop. It's a varied introduction to his calculating wares ahead of the debut album, out later this summer.
Taking advantage of the influences of their new location in London, Danish outfit Alphabeat are set to make the biggest Scandic pop splash since the heyday of Ace Of
Base and A-ha. The group's swish second album The Beat Is... features the vocal duels of frontpersons Anders SG and female foil Stine Bramsen and it picks up where their 2008 Top 10 hit singles Fascination and 10,000 Nights left off.
"Musically we would never have made such a dance-influenced record if we had not stayed in London," admits Anders.
"It wasn't until we came here that we realised what a dance scene you have - much more so than in Denmark.
"We went out a couple of times to soak up the dance atmosphere. Stine would come down and tell us to go out when we were recording because we weren't getting to meet other people. It was a fun time.
"The thing we found really interesting was that we write very personal pop songs, but when we mixed that with the dance vibe we got old school songs with a dance groove."

A Music Nerd's Dream Week
By Matt Grosinger on February 18, 2011
If that VH1 show Best Week Ever came out of cancellation for just one spectacular week, it would be totally warranted for this 7-day stretch in the world of music. Like in all honesty, every single day was just too much for me to handle. My advice: as you read up on the week's events, have some sort of excitement-bucket nearby.
1. Radiohead Releases Their New Album King Of Limbs TODAY
Surprise! New Radiohead! OUT RIGHT NOW! AHHHH (excitement bucket in ready position). Although Thom Yorke and Co. only gave us a week's notice about their follow up to In Rainbows, they decided to shorten the wait by an extra 24 hours, legally making it a four-day weekend. Check out Thom Yorke giving it up and turning it loose in the new video for "Lotus Flower"
2. Arcade Fire Win Album of the Year at the Grammys
What is an Arcade Fire? Should we be worried? I was expecting Teenage Dream or the Fame Monster to claim this award…But NOOO, Arcade Fire just had to pull an Esperanza Spalding and receive due credit for excellent musicianship and seven years of hard work. But worry not; they will never be Bieberlicious enough for a Teen Choice Award.
3. Bonnaroo Lineup Announced
You just need $300 and a big bag of weed; the rest will just kind of happen to you. But seriously, I am only enrolling in classes that have finals at the beginning of the first week of June so I can make sure to catch Arcade Fire (who?), The Strokes, Weezy, Smith Westerns, Robyn, The Black Keys, Deerhunter, Ratatat, Pretty Lights, and Sharon Van Etten….
4. LCD Bashes Scalpers, Adds 4 More Farewell Shows in NYC
LCD Soundsystem's final performance as a group sold out Madison Square Garden crazy fast. But as soon as James Murphy caught wind of the fact that many scalpers got their grimy little hands on tickets before fans and were selling them for up to $1250, he had a twitter shit-fit and graciously added 4 more farewell shows so that all could see the band off properly.
5. Jeff Mangum Returns To The Public Eye
The Neutral Milk Hotel frontman, who has been more or less MIA for the last ten years, has finally returned in full touring force. In addition to curating All Tomorrow's Parties in The UK, he has string of East Coast dates set up for this summer.
Ummm. Isn't Arcade Fire like the king of hipster bands? AF != Nerd, sorry.
Haven't listened to the new Radiohead, yet (pre-ordered and downloaded, but still at work), but I will say that the facebook has been ablaze with posts from my friends, and in five hours, this album's reviews have gone from "their new masterpiece", to "What is this? Thom Yorke Karaoke? Where is the band? Disappointed.." I must reserve judgement, but feel I've been given to much input to remain unbiased. =/
This feels like the perfect example of how people can't WAIT to hate something.. Even Radiohead. No one is safe!
p.s. Love the hostful podcasts. Laughed til I hurt at your Scott Weiland impression. No mention of Scott's solo work? Anyone remember "Barbarella"?! -
Just downloaded the king of limbs album and I am loving it.
Arcade Fire are more like the king of awesome bands.
[…] This post was mentioned on Twitter by Eric Slepak and Becca Gleason, Reader. Reader said: A Music Nerd's Dream Week: If that VH1 show Best Week Ever came out of cancellation for just… http://goo.gl/fb/fgPnm […]
I wish I could post on this website. Seriously, best new(ish) band, Driftless Pony Club. So amazing. Listen to Maps of Low Fidelity. Thanks, Earthquake. Jackson Pollack is Dead. And, (if you can find it for free somewhere, though I advise buying it as I did) All of their new album Buckminster. Though, every song of their's is good. BTW: Thanks for the Radiohead info, downloading the album now.
Oh, I almost forgot.. ARCADE FIRE FTW!!! Okay, bye. -
That's it, Greg. Get out.
You forgot the new Bright Eyes album came out Tuesday!
@Annie – That's probably because he said a Music Nerd's DREAM week.
I tease. Sort of.
@Annie-I just said the same thing!
I believe you forgot to mentions Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All's awesometastical performance on Jimmy Fallon.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CyMuBi-kH8&playnext=1&list=PLEA12BD80BE06BA71 -
Almost any music can be nerd music. If not, there would never be experimental and math metal, or nerd rap. Something more on, ohshi bright eyes! New music to calm me until the new Protest the Hero album.

Tiffany Shea
Nashville, TN
-emily dickenson
Tiffany Shea is an award winning American singer-songwriter known for her powerfully structured and emotionally intense songs that tackle a wide range of subjects, including the rigors of modern love, spirituality and personal tragedy.
Acclaimed by her contemporaries, Tiffany Shea consistently reconciles her love/hate relationship with a fickle music industry by recording albums brimming with original material, and this is reflected in the company she keeps - having been billed with the likes of B. B. King, Ani DiFranco, BareNaked Ladies, Third Eye Blind, Counting Crows and Blondie.
In March 2012, Tiffany Shea expanded her resume by releasing "Anthology," a double-disc collection of hits demonstrating the expressiveness of her four-octave voice. This is Shea's 14th release since 1997.
The albums retain the eccentric, idiosyncratic, and literary lyrical edge for which Shea is best known; and her eclectic and meticulous musical and production styling continues to bolster her fan base on both sides of the Atlantic.
Shea currently resides in Nashville, Tennessee, and is writing and recording her next album.
She is also working on the publication of her first childrens' book, which will be accompanied by a cd of childrens' songs.

It's official: 2013 Discover BCS National Championship Game logo unveiled
MIAMI LAKES, Fla. -- Marking the second time South Florida will "double host" two BCS Bowl games -- the Discover Orange Bowl on Jan. 1, 2013, and the Discover BCS National Championship Game on Jan. 7, 2013 the BCS group and the Orange Bowl Committee have unveiled the 2013 Discover BCS National Championship Game logo.
"The group has created a logo that uniquely reflects South Florida and the spirit of college football," BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock said. "We are delighted that the Orange Bowl Committee and South Florida are hosting the BCS National Championship Game for the fourth time; it's another great example of the tradition of college football in that part of the world."
In business for 25 years, Discover is in its third year as the title sponsor of the Orange Bowl and will sponsor its first BCS National Championship Game in 2013.
"The Orange Bowl Committee is very excited and proud to host both the 2013 Discover Orange Bowl and the 2013 Discover BCS National Championship Game when the 19th national champion will be crowned in South Florida," Eric Poms, Chief Executive Officer of the Orange Bowl Committee said. "With two games in the first week of January 2013, the focus of the college football universe will be on South Florida, and we look forward to being able to showcase the great assets of our region to the country."
Since its first game on Jan. 1, 1935, the Orange Bowl has hosted 18 national champions and 16 Heisman Trophy award winners. During that time, the Orange Bowl Committee has grown into a not-for-profit 341-member, primarily volunteer organization that promotes and serves the South Florida community. The Orange Bowl has become a foundation of the South Florida community by supporting and producing year-round activities and events that have helped shape and promote the community's image for 78 years.

This week's interview is focusing on the all-too-familiar topic of teaching English in China. Have you ever wondered what Chinese co-workers think about foreigner English teachers getting paid more to do the same job as they do? Curious about how the ethnic tensions between Han and Uyghur play out on a personal level? Then read on, because this interview is sure to interest you.
Introducing my good friend, Heidi:
First off, why don't you just say what you do for a living.
How much are you paid per month?
So then how much are you able to save per month?
Well, I am a mother of a one-year boy and my husband works at an oil company as an engineer who gets about 2,000 RMB (US$293) per month . We usually save 1,000 RMB (US$146) for my [son's education] and 500-800 RMB (US$70-$120) for emergencies. We have to pay the Nanny who takes care of my son while we are not at home. You might think we spend a lot and we do because sometimes we need pay for some nice dinners for our friends or colleagues to keep a good relation with each other.
Is being an English teacher what you always wanted to do?
I am very proud to be an English teacher because I have been dreaming that one day I could speak very good English and teach my students to learn more about western cultures.
Does it bother you (or did it bother you) that younger, inexperienced foreign teachers make twice or three times as much money as you do?
Well, it does because we spend more time at school and have more responsibility for kids and experience in teaching. However, there are some foreign teachers who are worthy to get such amount of money, including three teachers I worked with before. They were very happy to be a teacher and was beloved by everyone and made every day new for kids and put a lots of efforts for school, it seems they felt the school was their second home.
When did your family first come to Xinjiang?
My family first came to Xinjang in 1969 and they all came from Sichuan province.
Why did they move from Sichuan?
My father used to be in the Army when he was 17 and was supposed to get a good stable job in Sichuan after being a soldier for three year in YunNan. He was late one year to get home, so he lost his job. My father was very ambitious to make his own career; he saw an advertisement that said it was much easier to make money in Xinjiang. Then he moved to my hometown of Tachen in Xinjiang which he found was even poorer than his home in Sichuan, but he refused to regret his decision. He met my mother when he first went back to his hometown from Xinjiang three years later.
If you could, would you rather live in Xinjiang or in another part of China?
For me , I rather live in a middle city like Karamay because it is clean and cozy plus it is more convenient to visit our parents often (*Note: Tachen, her hometown, is only 4-5 hours from Karamay*).
As a Han Chinese, what do you think about the relationship between Han people and Uyghur people?
Well, it is very hard to answer this because what our citizen think the relationship between Han people and Uyghur people will hopefully be harmonious forever, but on political side they always have different ideas on issues. Wish they could work it out.
Ok, but what about you? Do you have Uyghur friends?
Tell you the truth that I had a lots when I was young for we lived in a same village, My younger sister learned Uyghur language as an exchanging student, but I have few now because the place I live and work is separated, we have no chance to make any Uyghur friends.
If somebody asked you why they should come to Xinjiang, what would you tell them?
First of all, the nature and beauty in Xinjiang is something you can't get in other parts of China. To be honest, though, if you just want to make money, Xinjiang is not the place you should come, but the nature and experience is worthy for visiting and living here.

2014 Fairway Woods
Custom-Fit Fairway Woods With The Industry's Leading Technology
Designing a hotter, more forgiving face for generating distance with control was the inspiration behind the G30 fairway woods. A strong, uniform-thickness Carpenter 475 face maximizes deflection to increase ball speed and generate distance. The face is also taller for additional face bending and forgiveness. Crown turbulators help with aim and confidence. And with five settings, you can add or subtract up to 1 degree of loft to optimize trajectories.
The XCG6 is the longest Exotics fairway wood yet. The new XCG6 powerhouse design features a 15-3-3-3 beta titanium cup face, a high-density steel body and a tungsten sole plate that are combo-brazed for the ultimate in power and forgiveness.
The larger 15-3-3-3 beta titanium cup face provides to-the-limit COR even on off-center hits. The new, high-tech, high-density, steel body is almost as light as titanium allowing more mass to be place in the heel and toe areas of the sole. A heavy tungsten sole plate puts 65% of the total club head weight in the heel and toe areas for a higher moment-of-inertia, reduced club head twisting and greater forgiveness. Boomerang face technology offers multiple levels of variable face thickness that maximize the spring-like effect from more points on the face.
Thinner. Lighter. More robust. That's how the Hyper Speed Face Cup delivers faster ball speeds and more distance, making X2 Hot a full 7 yards longer than the X Hot Fairway Wood. Yes, you read that correctly.
The weight saved by the new Speed Pocket design is redistributed strategically within the clubhead to move the CG lower and forward, the location that TaylorMade has proven promotes fast ball speed and low spin. TaylorMade's robot testing indicates that JetSpeed fairways and Rescue clubs reduce spin compared to RBZ Stage 2 to promote more distance. JetSpeed fairways reduce spin by 200-300 RPM compared to RBZ Stage 2 to promote more distance.*
The redesigned Speed Pocket also allowed TaylorMade engineers to make the face shallower while still maintaining the same high speed as RBZ Stage 2 fairways and Rescues. The JetSpeed 3-wood's face is shallower than the RBZ Stage 2 3-wood (by 2 millimeters), bringing the CG in lower in relation to the center of the face to make it easier to launch on a high angle. Plus, it gives JetSpeed fairways and Rescues an especially sleek and stealthy appearance, like an F-22 Raptor ready for takeoff.
When Adams' fairway wood heritage and new technologies and materials collide – incredible things happen. The XTD Ti Fairway Wood is loaded with the finest materials available in golf club design. Using new standards of manufacturing that combine titanium brazing with our patented Cut-Thru Slot technology, this fairway wood features progressive face thickness for up to 29% more face speed on off-center hits compared to the SUPER LS fairway wood.
XTD flaunts an optimally-low CG, making it extremely easy to get the ball airborne for more consistent and controllable performance.
New Cut-Thru slots and ti brazing made the clubface so fast we needed to slow them down.
Features progressive face thickness – a first in fairway wood design.
Up to 29% more speed on off-center hits compared to SUPER LS.*
Hyper Speed Face Cup
The goal was to create faster ball speeds all across the face, which we did, and the answer comes from a thinner, lighter, more robust 455 carpenter steel face, giving you more consistent distance and playability. Those are always good, but especially so in a fairway wood.

Call now at (888) 284-9292 to schedule a fitting at any of our locations so you can begin to hit it longer, hit it straighter and shoot lower scores. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Rinehart ordered to pay children's legal bills
PUBLISHED: 30 Jul 2012 14:31:00 | UPDATED: 31 Jul 2012 00:01:25PUBLISHED: 31 Jul 2012 PRINT EDITION: 30 Jul 2012Mining magnate Gina Rinehart ... has been ordered to pay the legal fees of her children and several media companies. Photo: Ron D'Raine
Mining magnate Gina Rinehart has been ordered to pay the legal costs of three of her children who are seeking to oust her as trustee of the family trust.
In a NSW Court of Appeal judgment on Monday, Australia's richest person was also ordered to pay the costs of several media companies which intervened in the case, including the ABC, Fairfax Media, Nine Network and Nationwide News. Last September, John Hancock, Bianca Rinehart and Hope Welker took court action against their mother to remove her as the trustee.
They claimed she acted "deceitfully" and with "gross dishonesty" in her dealings with the trust, set up in 1988 by her father, Lang Hancock. Her children are the beneficiaries.
Mrs Rinehart is supported by her youngest daughter, Ginia, in the suit. The pair were ordered to pay the costs incurred by the other children when they opposed her attempts to stay earlier court decisions.
In the Court of Appeal last December, judge Margaret Beazley halted a decision overturning suppression orders on details of the case while Mrs Rinehart tried to appeal to the High Court.
On January 13, the court concluded that the order should not be granted, although it allowed a short stay until February 3 because several legal representatives were on holidays. The media companies had sought the costs of their application opposing the suppression orders.
Ginia Rinehart did not oppose paying costs.

The Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival has revealed its nationwide programme of events, screenings, workshops and exhibitions.
Taking place from October 1 to 24 around the country, its theme this year is 'walk in my shoes'.
Now in its sixth year, the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival has expanded from a weekend of film to encompass music, film, visual art, theatre, dance, video-gaming, comedy and literature, with tickets are on sale now for over 250 arts events.
Taking inspiration from this year's theme, musicians, writers and artists will explore aspects of empathy and understanding in collaboration with arts organisations and venues working with activists, community groups and people who have experienced mental health problems.
Duglas T Stewart (BMX Bandits), Rod Jones (Idlewild) and Malcolm Middleton (ex-Arab Strap) are some of the musicians involved in in creating this year's programme, along with writers Alan Bisset, Christopher Brookmyre and Rodge Glass, Scots Makar Liz Lochhead, comedians Mark Steel and Susan Morrison, poet and comedian John Hegley and award-winning theatre director Nicola McCartney.
Festival director Lee Knifton said: "The arts allow you to explore meaning in a fun way, to engage your emotions and connect with one another emotionally as well as intellectually."
The festival has also developed in scope. "SMHAFF has evolved to be a broader social justice festival where we're not just looking at improving mental health for everyone, we're looking at reducing the inequalities in well-being that we experience as a community," explained Lee.
"The Festival is about social justice, it's about tackling stigma, it's about exploring mental health identities and it's about connecting people and organisations that otherwise wouldn't meet. And it's about creating space – not just for great art – but for exploring what art can tell us about mental health and about identity more generally."
Isabella Goldie, head of Mental Health Foundation, Scotland, explained: "The Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival has gradually become one of the most exciting, innovative and important arts events in Scotland's cultural calendar. Not only because each year the quality of the art on offer just keeps getting better and better but many will know that this festival is much, much more than a series of fantastic and of course accessible events - it's a celebration of the human spirit."
In terms of film, the Glasgow Film Theatre and Edinburgh's Filmhouse, Edinburgh will screen Anti-Clock and Dali In New York with an appearance by filmmaker Jack Bond, the Scottish premiere of I, Anna staring Charlotte Rampling, while filmmaker Jim Burns and subject Duglas T Stewart discuss Serious Drugs - a film about inspiration, creativity and Scotland's seminal indie group BMX Bandits – at the Filmhouse. Theatre-wise, Box of Frogs is billed as an "exhilarating, high-octane performance showcasing a deluge of circus skills including trick-cycling, tumbling and acrobalance, exploring circus as a metaphor for emotional instability", while Piece of Mind" looks to bring to life the experience of young people diagnosed with bipolar. Nicola McCartney's production of Wendy Lill's play *The Occupation of Heather Rose concerns an idealistic nurse in a Canadian outpost who discovers that mental health is not simply a physical or emotional issue.
Music Like A Vitamin returns with a unique collaboration by Fatherson, The Birthday Suit (featuring Rod Jones of Idlewild), Withered Hand and Sparrow and The Workshop.

In terms of literature, Walking, Talking, Writing from Lapidus Scotland is a weekend of writing events – including a flâneuring workshop – featuring Scots Makar Liz Lochhead and James King, performance poet. Alan Bissett, author of Boyracers and Scottish Writer of The Year, is among the Falkirk Rocks line-up, along with Grangemouth's own Gordon Legge. Meanwhile Elgin hosts An Audience with Christopher Brookmyre.
In the sphere of comedy Mark Steel "brings the feel-good factor to Moray", while Keir McAlister and John Scott are among a group of Scottish stand-ups, led by Scotland's favourite MC Susan Morrison who will be playing various gigs around the Highlands and Islands, finishing up in Rutherglen.
As well as that "Walkthrough" marks a first move into a new sphere for the festival, with speakers from some of Scotland's most successful video games companies taking you on a journey through their creations. In terms of visual art Elemental is a "visually stunning" exhibition of work from emerging Falkirk artist Archie Tipple, and A Walk In My Boots: Veterans First Point Art Open Day displays visual and written artwork exploring the experiences of veterans and their families.

Bypass systems reduce inspection likelihood
Bypass systems work well for carriers with a good safety-performance history to help them avoid the extra scrutiny rolling over the scales gets a truck and its driver.
Inconsistent enforcement: Insist on inspection, not citation
The way the DataQs challenge system is working suggests conventional wisdom about citations and CSA scores is flawed, with the issue of unfinished clean inspections looming larger for carriers looking to improve CSA scores.
Inconsistent enforcement: CSA's heat index
State inspection intensity ratings range from Maryland, where 32 inspections per lane-mile of National Highway System were conducted during CSA's first two year, to Idaho, where only two inspections per lane-mile were done.
