Blackman had impressed on his Caley Thistle debut, earning the man of the match award in the Scottish Premier League clash against Aberdeen.

Hel-lo Grill!
No more asking, "What's for dinner?" Each afternoon, Kim will reveal what she whipped up in her home kitchen the night before. She'll also provide advice and recipes so you can make a similar meal yourself.
My son and I spent an arduous day this weekend in airports, on an airplane and in cars to reach my parents in Colorado. But now that we're here, it's worth it. He loves the front yard, the garden hose, the grass, the bugs, the silly restaurant companion (Grandpa). I love the grill, mostly because, as a general rule, people who don't cook still like to stand over the flames with a pair of tongs and make dinner. I don't grill, but lots of other family members do, so I get out of dinner duty.
I did throw together some potato packets from a recipe in a Woman's Day cookbook, Fire Up the Grill. You simply slice about 5 or 6 red potatoes thinly, then toss them with a thinly sliced onion and red pepper, some oil, salt and dried thyme. We didn't have thyme, so we used Italian seasoning, which I found kind of odd tasting but my mom said she liked. Split it between 4 or 5 12-inch pieces of foil, fold the foil over the potato mixture, crimp the edges, then grill for about 30 minutes. Ours got kind of charred on the bottom; if you wanted to avoid that, a flip halfway through would probably do it.
This was so easy, and then someone just seasoned some strip steaks and threw them on, too. Maybe I should learn to grill. These recipes offer further inducements:

(KMOV.com) -- The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency has discovered elevated levels of an algae at Bicentennial Park in Belleville.
Now the city has posted signs telling people not to have any contact with the water.
"This is really a danger to them," said Alderwoman Lillian Schneider.
Schneider said she was very alarmed to discover the signs recently.
The IEPA said tests had found elevated levels of a blue-green algae that releases dangerous toxins and can make people very ill.
Fish in the water could potentially also be harmful if eaten. With evidence of anglers all over the park, Schneider said not everyone is listening to warnings.
She wondered whether they should have closed the park altogether until the algae goes away.
Schneider said the park is becoming a liability to Belleville. She also said about the amount of debris and garbage in the water is worrisome, becoming a big money pit.
Officials said the algae can't be treated, but recent tests show it may be dissipating. Authorities said the cold weather and rain will help it disappear.

Ismail ends Dons loan spell

The 19-year-old joined the League One club towards the end of November and made six league and cup appearances for Karl Robinson's side.
Ismail's only start against Brentford on December 8 resulted in him being substituted midway through the first half at Griffin Park due to an early yellow card.

Jesse Kalisher: Pro Photographer Secrets
- Take a lot of pictures. Some of your photos will be keepers and capture the scene in a way you could never have imagined possible. You'll see one of Jesse's photos of the Taj Majal showing a flock of birds in flight that didn't attract his attention at first; he was too busy looking at the seven workers in the foreground.
- Have your camera always ready. Hang it on a strap around your neck, have your film or digital card loaded and primed, and know that you just might walk into something amazing. Develop the reflex to lift the camera up and start taking pictures right away.
- Look behind you - sometimes that's where the best picture might be. I love the example Jesse gives of taking a picture of a man approaching him with a water buffalo - but then he turned around and took another amazing picture of the pair walking off into the sunset. In other words, be prepared to explore all angles of your subject.
- Keep learning. Jesse talks about the need to avoid the phobia of reading and understanding every setting, button, and trick in your camera manual so you'll know what your equipment is capable of producing. The latest generation of digital cameras are sophisticated, computer-driven instruments, and mastering the owner's manual is important. I might add that once you have the technical aspects down cold, it's vital to let your creativity kick in so you direct the camera to do your bidding.
- Have fun. Photography should be about capturing the joy inside of you as you witness an amazing subject. Your photographs should transport the viewer to where you are emotionally as well as physically. Becoming a professional photographer is all about cultivating passion and enjoyment, and doing your best work in that exalted inner space.

(KMOV) – A window washer was rescued after nearly falling from the building he was cleaning in Clayton Monday morning.

Officials said the victim fell about six feet before rescue crews responded to the scene and threw him some rescue lines from the roof.

Dreams of Kurdistan - By Yigal Schleifer. From the outside looking in, the conflict between the Turkish state and the Kurds seems stuck in a kind of gruesome holding pattern.
Articles written months and years apart are virtually indistinguishable from one another: "Three Turkish Soldiers Reported Killed In PKK Clash In Southeast" reads a headline from May 17, 2012 -- but it could just as easily have been from two decades ago. But, beneath the headlines, the defining narrative of this long-running conflict -- which has claimed tens of thousands lives since the late 1980s -- may finally be changing for the better. Turkey's Democratic Dilemma.
Snapshot The United States is counting on Turkey to help oust the Syrian regime and bring about a pluralistic government.
But Ankara, whose Sunni leadership sees Syria's conflict in sectarian terms, is not on board. Journalists and activists rally for press freedom in Ankara, March 19, 2011 (Umit Bektas / Courtesy Reuters) During a town hall meeting organized as part of Barack Obama's 2009 visit to Istanbul, a Turkish student expressed his disappointment with the president's inability to implement substantial changes to U.S. foreign policy.

Will the Arab Spring remake Turkey's Foreign Policy?
Turkey's transformation under the AKP has repositioned Ankara in the Middle East. But, with the new challenges emerging from the Arab Spring, doubts exist whether Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his Foreign Minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, can sustain Turkey's new role in a changing regional landscape. Erdogan negotiates the vagaries of foreign policy at the G20 summit Recep Erdogan has succeeded in re-energizing Turkey's role in the world. Behind Bars in the Deep State - By Justin Vela. For many Turkish citizens, the evolution of their democracy is best discussed in whispers.
Turkey has come far in recent years, but these days they prefer not to speak too loudly about where it is headed. In the past two years, thousands of citizens who have voiced criticism of the government have been detained, usually led away by police in predawn raids on their homes. On Jan. 5, one of the country's most high-profile detainees, investigative journalist Ahmet Sik, testified in court for the first time to defend himself against charges of propagandizing for a shadowy pro-military conspiracy called Ergenekon, which allegedly plotted to overthrow the government of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. A New Kind of Armenian-Turkish Reconciliation. In October 2011, the newly renovated Sourp Giragos Armenian Apostolic Church reopened in Turkey's southeastern province of Diyarbakir.
Among the hundreds gathered to celebrate its first mass in over ninety years were local men and women who had chosen the occasion to be baptized into the Armenian Apostolic Church.

Click to hide this space EAST LANSING, MICHIGAN – Turkey has over the past few weeks become the spearhead of a joint Western-Arab-Turkish policy aimed at forcing President Bashar al-Assad to cede power in Syria. This is quite a turnaround in Turkish policy, because over the past two years the government of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had gone out of its way to cultivate good relations with neighboring Syria, with whom it shares a long land border. This change of course on Syria has also cost Turkey a great deal in terms of its relations with Iran, the principal supporter of Assad's regime, which Turkey had also cultivated as part of Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu's "zero problems with neighbors" policy.
Given these new strains, it is worth recalling that a only few months ago many American leaders were livid at what they perceived to be Turkey's betrayal. Turkey's Test - Anne-Marie Slaughter. Exit from comment view mode.

A Judicial Coup. The case of Hakan Fidan has shed new light on domestic politics in Turkey The slow-burn reform efforts of the past seven years in Turkey have culminated in an astonishing confrontaion between the police and intelligence services.
Could the delicate truce between the AKP and state institutions finally be over? Prime Minister Erdogan and his AKP party may move to reduce the powers of the judiciary The signs were growing this month that Turkey's quiet revolution may have begun to eat its own children, as the government hastily amended a law to prevent courts questioning close allies of Prime Minister Erdogan in the country's national intelligence agency.
Parliament voted the amendment through on 16 February, just over a week after prosecutors had issued a summons against national intelligence (MIT) chief Hakan Fidan as a suspect in a long-running terrorism investigation. The Brothel Next Door - by Anna Louie Sussman. Under the shade of a tree at an Istanbul cafe, Suzan, a voluptuous woman in her 50s with dyed blond hair and a warm, generous smile, describes how she went from teenage bride to full-time sex worker.

By Sharon Ko
MEDFORD, Ore. — A Jackson County Judge is keeping a suspicious driver behind bars, the man deputies say was driving up to young girls in Jackson County.
41-year-old Doug Remstedt is not facing any charges for trying to contact those young girls, but he is being held for a list of other charges. He appeared in court for possession of a weapon, drugs, and eluding police.
In court on Tuesday, Doug Remstedt plead not guilty to his recent charges of eluding police and possession of a concealed weapon, but it was his attempts at contacting middle-school aged girls in his van that led police to make the arrest.
Police believe he is responsible for contacting minors in three separate incidents in White City and Phoenix. When they contacted him, he tried escaping through a window. Deputies later found his van, matching the description of those filing complaints, with a tarp over it in Central Point.
In court, Remstedt told the judge he sells certificate books and was not in town at the time of the accusations. Remstedt was already indicted by a grand jury for possession of drugs and a weapon. The judge set a $30,000 bail for that case; Remstedt is expected to return to court in June.

As steel and glass move skyward at the World Trade Center site, an essential part of the National September 11th Memorial Plaza is growing about 50 miles away. Hundreds of Swamp White Oaks and Sweetgum Trees are being tended to at a nursery in Millstone, New Jersey. By the 10th anniversary of the attacks, more than half of the planned 416 trees will have been transferred to the Memorial Plaza, forming a canopy near two reflecting pools built in the footprints of the two towers.
Bartlett Tree Experts, the international company hired to tend to the Memorial Plaza trees, also nurtures a number of trees in Central Park. The company is no stranger to large projects, but they say this is a special undertaking. "We were very nervous about it initially. Not that we didn't have the wherewithal to do the project, but just the importance of it. How critical it was to make sure every tree did well," said Bartlett Tree Experts CEO Wayne Dubin.
Each tree on the 16 acre site sits in an individual planter box and is fitted with a ribbon sensor that monitors soil temperature and moisture. "They're in giant planter boxes because we needed to make sure they're built so that when they're planted it closely resembles the planting area that they are going to be put into," said Bartlett Tree Experts Arborist Jason Bond. Bond has been tending to the trees since they arrived in April of 2007. The trees now stand at about 30 feet tall, and are expected to grow upwards of 80 feet. They were chosen from regions within a 500 mile radius of Lower Manhattan and are being pruned to mirror each other.
"They have a long life expectancy. And they don't suffer from any meaningful disease or insect problems. And they're both well suited for an urban environment," Dubin said. Funding for the $8 million memorial tree project is a mix of public and private support. The National 9/11 Memorial is also offsetting the cost of the project by selling commemorative ornaments that run between $25 and $35.
"This is a living memorial that people will be able to capture their beauty when they go there and visit these trees and see them and enjoy their shade," Bond said. Those behind the memorial hope visitors will find growing comfort in a place marked by tragedy.

Across the nation, people have experienced record setting cold temperatures this winter. Even in areas where records have not been changed, chilly temperatures have been a factor in numerous emergencies, accidents and incidents involving property damage. Freezing temps have even been blamed for a few deaths.
Home Security Store is headquartered in Southern California and while this state is best known for its sunshine and warm beaches– and our winter nights aren't nearly as cold as they are in some parts of the country– by our own standards, it has even gotten quite cold and uncomfortable especially here at night lately. Certainly, this is the time of year when everyone, no matter where you live, can benefit from a few winter home security and safety tips.
Use a Carbon Monoxide Detector
Weather events resulting in evacuation are rare, but they do occur and most people are caught totally off guard by them. In these situations, the aftermath is often as stressful as the actual event. Should you ever have to abandon your house due to a severe storm, you may encounter very dangerous conditions upon your return home. Besides things obvious to the naked eye, such as flooding and structural damage, your home may also present a less obvious, but dangerous threat by way of a carbon monoxide leak. The best and safest way to protect yourself and your family against this deadly hazard is to install a carbon monoxide detector such as the Wireless CO Detector Kit found in our store.
Protect Your Pets
During extremely cold temperatures, if possible, bring your pets indoors. If you own a dog that provides outdoor security, consider installing security cameras, outdoor lighting and a good alarm system, instead. In the event that your pets do have to stay outside at night, however, then look into building or purchasing a heated shelter for them. Beware also of wild animals, such as coyotes, bears and wildcats, which sometimes find their own food sources to be rather scarce during the winter and may venture into your yard for food.
Keep an Emergency and First Aid Kit Handy
It is wise to have an emergency kit like the Mayday Deluxe Emergency Honey Bucket Kit on hand for each member of your family year round. But it is especially important to have one during periods where you're more likely to experience stormy conditions. In addition to food, water and other necessary supplies, this particular emergency item also provides you with a first aid kit, which may come in handy if a storm or snowy conditions result in an injury. It is always a good idea to keep at least one of these in your car, as well as in your home, at all times just in case.
Candles and Flashlight
Always keep a good stock of emergency candles (and something to light them with) on hand, especially during the winter, in order to stay prepared for power outages. A heavy duty flashlight, such as a MagLite, is advisable. If you already have a flashlight of this caliber (and, actually, you should have several), make sure that its batteries are fresh and that you have enough spare batteries just in case you find yourself in the dark for a prolonged period of time.
Check On Elderly Relatives and Neighbors
Think about how difficult it is when you are forced to drive or take public transportation during a storm. Or even how difficult (and expensive) it is to keep your house warm during the winter months. Now, imagine if you suffer from arthritis, poor vision or are living on a fixed income. For many of your elderly relatives and neighbors, the winter months can be quite depressing and physically difficult to survive. Keep them in mind when applying all of these cold weather tips to your own household and offer them a hand whenever you can.
Read, Share and Learn More
Hopefully, these tips will be of some use to you as we still have several weeks to go until spring when temperatures will slowly begin to rise again. Bear in mind that even if you do not live in an area affected by severe storms and cold spells, think of loved ones who do and pass this post on to them. Also, advise them to check out the 'Environmental Controls' section of our main site in order to select devices to help them avoid damage due to flooding and freezing temperatures.
For more cold weather home security and safety tips, see our earlier post on how to protect your house during the winter months.
What Do You Think?
How has this winter's cold impacted your home? Your family? Your daily life? What important advice did we leave out of this post? Your thoughts and ideas help make this blog a more complete resource and we look forward reading to what you have to share below.

People who are paying for TV but want to cut the cord remain a niche segment, but one that's getting bigger, especially among young people who yawn at sports, according to a study.
In this edition of Ask Maggie, CNET's Marguerite Reardon explains why the Supreme Court's Aereo decision was bad for those who've ditched traditional TV service.

Miscellaneous stuff:
This website is dedicated to the issue of fonts rendering in Linux. There are two main problems which are being overlooked by some Linux distros: firstly, distros don't provide a good fonts configuration, thus even if you have fine crisp fonts obtained somewhere they will still look ugly and blurry. Secondly, by default many Linux distros don't provide good enough fonts or fonts which are compatible with Windows' ones. This of course leads to multiple problems: web pages look different, documents from Windows PC's quite often have a broken formatting. There's another problem to solve. Even though people know that Windows fonts can be copied to their Linux boxes, Windows Vista and Windows 7 fonts are not supported by Freetype's hinting technology. It's a big issue begging to be resolved, but in the meantime people want free good fonts which just look good.
This website solves all these problems for you. Just download the free fonts listed on the top of the page and install .fonts.conf into your home directory, e.g. into /home/user
This .fonts.conf file is compatible with Mint, Ubuntu, Mageia, Debian, Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, OpenSuse, Arch Linux'es.
It has a correctly tuned autohinting (hinting) and provides the best results only if your freetype is compiled with BCI (Byte Code Interpreter). Mind that it's optimized for RGB monitors, so if you have a different subpixels orientation you should edit it accordingly. So if you want free crisp truetype (TTF) fonts which look best on your TFT LCD monitor, which have the same or similar appearance to the ClearType technology implemented by Microsoft, then you have come to the right page. The set of free fonts provided here contains 100% Windows compatible fonts (aka corefonts).
If you are interested in Windows 7, Windows 8.1/10 or Windows Vista fonts for Linux you won't find them here for one very sad reason: Xft and freetype cannot yet properly render them (yes, seven years after the introduction of ClearType v2 - they are still not usable under Linux).

Nestled deep within the heart of an undulating volcanic mountain range, at the intersection of Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, lies Virunga…
This sacred terrain pays homage to the distinctively endangered Mountain Guerilla. Lush with tropical forests and diverse mammal, bird, and reptile species, Virunga is a place which harnesses the combined essence and mystic spirit of eight dormant volcanoes.
This is the place where all the Guerillas meet, and under the cover of darkness with only the Luna illumination, they consort to the deep sounds of the Virunga terrain…
Serving one sole purpose, Virunga endeavours to bring together fun-loving groovers, who share a passion for underground house music, to a night of organic, unadulterated underground sounds. After the brand prematurely launched with the Mexican duo Climbers in June 2012, making their UK debut, a revamped Virunga enjoyed a sell-out launch party with Hot Creation's Leeds based DJ/Producer Denney in early November.
Continuing to provide Guildford with a new, exciting & uncompromising monthly event, at none other than Guildford's premier live music venue, The Boileroom, showcasing some of the finest breakthrough artists currently gracing the ever-changing underground music scene.
Ben Pearce
Hailing from the Northern pastures of Manchester, over the course of the past 18 months this Mancunian musician has enjoyed a gradual rise to the forefront of the UK's cutting edge Underground music scene. Having initially plied his trade as a promoter for a host of Manchester's coolest Underground parties, Ben has since taken a new direction with his illustrious career in music. Focusing his efforts on production, Ben has drawn inspiration from a variety of influences, which includes anything from Heavy Metal and Rock, to Hip Hop, Techno and Soul.
With a string of intelligent releases now under his belt, Ben's most notable musical creation is his latest EP, "What I Might Do", which was released in early October on Chase and Status' label, MTA Records.
This highly anticipated title track has been supported by Solomun, David August & Danny Daze, to name but a few, and is set to be one of the hottest records of the year, having been played by some of the biggest DJs at some of the coolest parties in London, Berlin and Ibiza, throughout the summer. It is also important to note, that not only has Ben achieved worldwide recognition for his own musical endeavours, but he is also the Creative Director, Label Manager & Resident Artist at the Manchester based, forward thinking Record Label and Artist Management Agency, Purp & Soul, further assuring his credibility as an all-round musical pioneer.
Aside from headlining a string of impressive sell-out Purp & Soul showcases so far in 2011, this summer has also seen Ben close the Premier Etage at Ibiza's legendary clubbing mecca, Space, for Carl Cox's infamous Tuesday night residency, whilst he has also enjoyed gigs alongside the likes of industry heavyweights Seth Troxler, Kolombo and the Adana Twins.
Kolo & Dyze
A duo that has been gyrating dance-floors across London, submerging underground parties with their inspiring sound. With elements of dub, garage and down right dirtiness being injected into their deep house sets, the pair have been making a steady rise on the London circuit. Kolo & Dyze can often be found fullfilling their residency's at either Roto or Connected, which are a solid part of London's underground party scene. The pair are clearly making an impact with their sound and having graced the DJ booth alongside Subb-an, Danny Daze, Miguel Campbell, Waifs & Strays, Larse, Adam Shelton, Audiojack, Climbers, DJ Sneak, Richy Ahmed, Russ Yallop, Hot Since 82, Yousef, Nick Curly, Deepgroove, Inxec, Droog, and DJ W!ld.
A former music student and DJ who is rapidly achieving so much. Mali started DJing in 2009 at popular underground student nights like Naked Lunch at the Rainbow in Birmingham, which has predominantly been his hunter ground for quite some time. His DJing grew beyond the student parties, taking him to new heights in Birmingham, playing for Godskitchen, VIVa MUSiC, Cream Classics, Mixmag, Electricity, Rehab, Face, Substep, Dubmatic, 2.31, and his very own Seedy Sonics.
But eager to make his mark on the scene, Mali has continuously pushed his career to spread further than just the Birmingham music scene. And Mali has already demonstrated that, with an array of appearances in Ibiza at Ibiza Rocks, VIVa, Together Ibiza , Urban Heroes, One Night With at the legendary Space and Play 2, as well as Snowbombing (Austria), Outlook Festival (Croatia), Shambala Festival (UK) and Troupe in London.
Mali has clearly racked up a substantial amount of experience in such a short space of time and there are not many that can boast a list of DJs they have played alongside for the time he's been spinning records. DJs like Steve Lawler, Claude Von Stroke, Art Department, Eats Everything, Justin Martin, Heidi, Martinez, Maya Jane Coles, Cassius, Simon Baker, Adam Shelton, Burnski and Darius Syrossian to name a few.
Neil Catlin
A London based DJ/Producer, following in the footsteps of a new breed of quintessential House and Techno artists taking the scene by storm. Having earned himself a residency at Connected, one of London's leading monthly events, it is fair to say that such an accolade comes as just reward for Neil's years of dedication towards cultivating the local underground music scene.
From Chris Stanford to Maya Jane Coles, Noir to Cadenza, Neil is an artist with meticulous understanding and appreciation for underground house music. His taste in both House and Techno is transparent throughout his intelligently crafted sets, forging Techno based sounds with rolling house rhythms.
Ian Tucker
Another of London's prime talents who has been inspired by the DJ bug that runs through him and his brothers, Ian is an incredible craftsman on the decks where he molds the sound of his sets into a blend of Deep and Tech-House, plenty of groove and plenty of move. Ian's talents have propelled him into some of the capital's renowned venues like Ministry Of sound, Pacha London, SE-ONE, Plan B, Inigo and in particular Turnmills where Ian's playing abilities were recognised by high profile promoters leading on to him playing sets in Ibiza and many more high profile London events.

Denney is part of the exciting new breed of electronic music talent emerging from the UK at the moment. Currently catching both the attention of his peers and dancefloors alike, with both his productions and DJ sets showcasing his own distinctive blend of acid house and techno.
Over the last four years he has held his residency at FUTURE in the north-east of England, playing with some of the biggest names in underground House music and gaining a strong following for not just his warm up sets but also for playing peak-time in between or after the guests. Alongside that his gig diary has seen him play for Pete Tong's Wonderland, Ibiza Rocks, Manumission in Ibiza and MIKZ in Berlin in recent times. Then such high profile clubs in the UK as Shindig, Circus, Sankeys, Muzika, Ketoloco, Just Jack and he has a very strong connection to the infamous Back to Basics in Leeds, where he is a regular player.
Denney has released and remixed on labels such as Saved Records, Great Stuff, 20:20 Vision, Leftroom and Bulletdodge. His productions have gained support from Laurent Garnier, Dubfire and Jamie Jones, who has signed his music to Hot Creations.
Its evident that Denney is very much a forward thinking DJ looking to make a statement, not only from his latest promo mix for Virunga, where he will be leading the guerillas, not just from his own productions or his remixes, but also for the unprecedented support he has received from the likes of Nic Fanciulli, Bushwacka!, Ralph Lawson, James Lavelle and Yousef.
Guerilla Sounds caught up with Denney for a few words before he hits the decks and leads the night at Virunga on 02 November 2012, a night where Denney will unleash some secret weapons.
Many people recognise you for your "Ultraviolet" release on Hot Creations, but you have been involved in the music scene for some time now, even being charted as a Mixmag Future Hero in 2004. When did you first actually get involved in the music scene?
I originally started playing out when I was 16 in local clubs in the area, at the time the Sugarshack in Middlesbrough was one of the biggest clubs in the UK and I managed to start playing the backroom there weekly. From there on I started to meet people and make contacts and the whole thing just grew from there. I won the Northern Technics DJ Academy competition in Manchester when I was 19 and that led onto the Mixmag award etc. So I guess I've been doing this for a good twelve or thirteen years now!
You've received praise from industry professionals, Nic Fanciulli, Bushwacka!, Ralph Lawson, James Lavelle. Was it at this point it clicked that you were well and truly making it as a fully recognised artist or was there another moment when you realised?
To be honest its been very flattering to hear the support I've had from those guys as they are all people I look up to and have maximum respect for, but its only this year that I have really felt that things have started clicking into the place I want to be. "Ultraviolet" has been the main reason for that as I knew when I made that record it was different, I'm just so happy Jamie and Lee thought the same and put it out on Hot Creations!
As many will associate you with Hot Creations, you have actually released on label such as 20:20 Vision, Saved Records, VIVa MUSiC and Leftroom. Was it always your final goal to release on any of these labels and how do you find yourself fitting in with Hot Creations?
Well I have done originals on Saved and VIVa and remixes for 20:20 and Lefroom, its great to have released on these labels and I absolutely love what they put out. In regards to Hot Creations, I have been friends with Jamie, Richy, Rob and Miguel for years now due to when I used to work at Back to Basics in Leeds and we all used to party together and hang out. Rob and Miguel lived in Leeds also. I know them all on a personal level which is really nice and also they have all been great at giving me advice and pointers along the way which I am grateful for.
We can imagine that recent months have been very busy for you have played at numerous venues and parties; what has been the highlight gig for you recently?
I have two which are equal highlights but were both in the space of 24 hours. They were playing DC10 for Hot Creations Paradise party and then the afterparty at La Plage both in Ibiza. DC10 as it's my favourite club on the planet and then La Plage was just a great fun vibe all day!
Do you have any secret weapons hidden in your box of trick that you will be dropping at the Virunga party?
I certainly do but I couldn't possibly reveal them or it wouldn't be secret anymore would it?!
Fair play to Denney, he has a point. For a DJ and producer who, even though he has been actively involved in the scene for sometime now, has exploded to the next level and upped his game. All that can be said is that we will certainly be looking forward to seeing him play at Virunga, and if his promo mix is anything to go by then guerillas will be swinging from the speakers.

Virunga | Facebook | Tickets | FB Event | RA | Boiler Room |
Nestled deep within the heart of an undulating volcanic mountain range, at the intersection of Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, lies Virunga…
This sacred terrain pays homage to the distinctively endangered Mountain Guerilla. Lush with tropical forests and diverse mammal, bird, and reptile species, Virunga is a place which harnesses the combined essence and mystic spirit of eight dormant volcanoes. This is the place where all the guerillas meet, and under the cover of darkness with only the Luna illumination, they consort to the deep sounds of the Virunga terrain…
Consisting of two high-school friends from Mexicali, Mexico, these ambitious amigos established the Climbers and embarked upon their musical journey almost 18 months ago to the day. Boasting very different styles of music and contrasting musical influences; Jay having already been a DJ for several years and Kiko coming from a Rock band, they are certainly not your most conventional underground music duo…Yet they both seem to share one-view, one fundamental vision, "to be happy with ourselves and also the music we make, to put our thoughts, feelings and just let it go with the flow".
One year-on, and the Climbers have already released their first EP, 'Law of Attraction' on Droog's infamous Culprit LA; a record which has enjoyed being timelessly played-out by the likes of Kiki, Art Department, Droog, James Teej, My Favorite Robot, Tanner Ross, Miguel Campbell and Catz n Dogz.
They are proving that they are not just a one EP wonder, with their latest release, coming swiftly after their first success. "My Life" is the second EP in only a month, which has been released on Nervous Records and keeps in line with the distinct Climbers sound. The title track is very much the prominent piece of the EP boasting a blissfully soft vocal, a track that is going to be played all through the summer, far and wide.
Their music can be characterised by classic house percussions, overwhelming baselines, old school vocal sampling and atmospheric pads, which inevitably always pushes all of the right buttons.

Guerilla Sounds launches their very own night of underground music….
Some of you may have seen the small hints now and then that we had something like this in the pipeline. Well we've finally got down to business and organised our very own "Virunga" night.
Virunga is primarily designed to push a true underground vibe of music in those places where it's needed most. Now for anyone who doesn't know what Virunga really is, you should know that Virunga is an area of Volcanic mountains along the borders of Rwanda, Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda and home to the critically endangered mountain gorilla. This setting fused with core underground elements of London provides the perfect theme and objective of what the Guerilla Sounds, Virunga night is all about.
Virunga will be launched in the intimate settings on Il Bicchio, Saluzzo, Italy, which will be filled with as many friends and collaborators of Guerilla Sounds as possible. Entry is free and open to all.
Pumping out the tunes will be London bred Zilla back-to-back with local Cuneo talent, Mattia Bruno.
Zilla, a DJ who takes on a colourful spectrum of Tech-House, Minimal, Techno and Progressive sounds, is hyped for the night stating, "I feel good about playing Virunga because there's a cool mentality to whole ethos of Virunga. When you kind of take in the idea of these volcanic forest mountains in Africa being blended with some of those London vibes, I just imagine some of the coolest music with tribal, jungle sounds and plenty of tribal instrumentals. I'll have to dig deep in the record box for some strange deep forest style tracks".
Mattia Bruno, being the local talent drafted in to provide the Italian take on things. He's going to be shaking the venue with a slightly more minimal sound, which is sure to get people bouncing.
So for some fresh underground sounds blending the jungle of London and the Virunga mountains, make sure you don't miss Virunga!

Great all around shoes
By Rickster
from Florida
About Me Avid Cyclist
Comments about Shimano R087 Road Shoes:
I ride at least 100 miles a week year round in these shoes.This is my second pair of R087's. I needed a back-up since I crashed and tore up my others.Though they are tough I may need to replace the buckle straps which I purchased. Well made and lighter than some carbon sole shoes. I prefer the push button straps for easy adjustment. Well vented. Price and durability make them my "go to shoes" for most rides. 8.5 sized to 42 just right.

Nice shoes, specially for Asian who has wide foot.
Good Shoes at decent price
By G

About Me Casual/ Recreational
I bought these for primarily for Spinning and some road use. After a month and 150 miles they seem to be fine. I was concerned about the ratcheting top buckle but it really is not a probelm and does not seem fragile. I would have preferred just velcro but this design seems to be popular for the moment.
Good shoes and great value
By AB1945
from The Villages FL
What I love about Shimano shoes is the size consistency. I wear a Shimano size 48. I KNOW that when I order a Shimano size 48 they will fit. I'm a club rider and put in a about 150 miles a week. These shoes are comfortable and good value for money.

these will do!
By McBiker
from Montgomery, TX
I have very wide feet, and these shoes fit pretty well. The two velcro straps and the ratchet style strap ensure a snug fit, and allow for easy adjustment if you need to loosen them up later.This is my first pair of road shoes, and the only weird thing I found was the vent hole in the bottom of the sole. I have one toe that lands right in the middle of the vent hole. So it takes a half mile of riding or so for me to stop wiggling my toe in the vent hole.I may want to consider inserts for these, as i also have a high arch, and sometimes feel like my feet turn in when pedaling hard.
Awesome road shoes for an awesome price!
By Copperdog230
from Niles, Illinois
I got these on sale for $47.99. That is a killer deal for these awesome shoes. I love them, they fit perfect, look great and will buy another pair when they go on sale again even if mine aren't worn out yet. This is a great name brand lightweight road shoe and can't be beat for the price!
Shimano r087 spd-sl
By peter
from Katy, TX
I wear Asics size 13, 4E. These size 48 shimano shoes fit perfect except for the width since it's normal width. Only slightly narrow for me though. Nice finish, I do get some hot spots after a couple of hours.

Good shoes, good price
I'm glad they were on sale
By PatRun
from Sarasota, FL
I got these on sale for about $50. For that price, not too bad, I would have hated to pay retail. The SIDIs they replaced cost about 25% more, but were better. I don't like the fancy adjustable latch. Velcro is simple and will last forever, this latch will not. Hot spots my feet at about 80 miles, about the same as other shoes. At the end of my last two 120 mile rides, the bottoms of my feet were the only aches I had, a little disappointed.

High arches/instep beware.
By Sunburstkid
from Howell New Jersey
This is my first pair of cycling shoes since my trusty wooden soled Detto's from the '80s. I normally wear 8.5 EEEE in athletic shoes so let me say that these shoes felt good right from the start. Along with WIDE feet I have high instep/arches and the only caveat is I could not get the ratchet strap started. When I finally did get it started I could not ratchet the strap because I just barely got it in to the first notch. You need to get to the second notch to be able to ratchet the strap. After much fiddling I finally got the strap to ratchet. All of the the shoe manufacturers warn that the synthetic material will not stretch. Something has given a little since I can get the ratchet started fairly easily now. If you have standard arches this should not be a problem. Other than that it is a great fit as the toe box is pretty comfortable for my flippers.

Internalism and epistemically responsible belief

Get AccessAbstract
In section one the deontological (or responsibilist) conception of justification is discussed and explained. In section two, arguments are put forward in order to derive the most plausible version of perspectival internalism, or the position that epistemic justification is a function of factors internal to the believer's cognitive perspective. The two most common considerations put forward in favor of perspectival internalism are discussed. These are the responsibilist conception of justification, and the intuition that two believers with like beliefs and experiences are equally justified in their like beliefs. In section three it is argued that perspectival internalism is false, and that in fact the position is not supported by a responsibilist conception of justification. Section four explicates two other forms of internalism, which are rejected for reasons similar to those presented against perspectival internalism. In section five, an internalist theory of justification is defended which is supported by a responsibilist conception of justification. Roughly stated, the position is that justified belief is belief which arises from the use of correct rules of reasoning. The idea of correctness is explicated, and the position is distinguished from others which are similar to it.

Stratasys Dimension SST 1200 es
Material: ABS plastic Build Size: 10"x10"x12" Resolution: .010 inch (.254 mm) Capability: Strong plastic parts
The Dimension SST 1200es 3D printer uses ABS plastic (what LEGO bricks are made of) and a proprietary support material to build durable and accurate parts. The machine has a build envelope of 10"x10"x12" (X x Y x Z). Because the machine prints layer by layer, it is capable of producing complex and organic shapes, as well as linked and fully assembled parts, such as chains, gear-boxes, curved tubes and bottles – essentially any form you can imagine or design. One down-side to this is that the layer-based process will cause curves which do not lay flat in the X-Y plane to be somewhat stepped or ridged.
To request contract Dimension printing services:
Submit your design by filling out the quote form. We have specific file guidelines listed below in the File Setup section.
We will estimate job setup and material costs and will then provide a quote for your approval.
Upon approval, we will run the job and will notify you when the product is ready for pickup.
Please include the following in your quote request:
A file containing the geometry to be printed, at 1:1 scale.
The desired resolution for the vertical layering along with the interior fill type (see below for an explanation of these terms);
Your desired material color (see below for options).
The date the parts are needed by - typical job turnaround is 2-3 business days depending on the job size, complexity and post-processing time.
The Dimension SST 1200es employs a proprietary type of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) – a high-performance engineering thermoplastic – called ABSplus to build your object. Finished items are very durable, and can be sanded, painted, or even drilled. Colors available include:
Nectarine (Orange)
File Setup
Acceptable file formats
Files should be submitted as an STL (.stl), IGES (.igs), Rhinoceros 4 (.3dm), or SolidWorks part or assembly file (.SLDPRT, .SLDASM).
If your file format is not listed, contact us for more information before simply converting from one format to another, as some formats are better than other and file conversion can introduce errors.
FDM Process and Printing Options
The Dimension SST 1200es uses a manufacturing process called Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), which builds the object by depositing thin layers of melted plastic and a sacrificial support material, essentially building the item from the ground up. While the process allows you to build objects of almost any conceivable shape, it also offers several options which affect the strength, density, and appearance of your object.
Vertical Resolution is the thickness of the layers of plastic that the machine deposits to build up your parts. The
Dimension SST 1200es is capable of two resolutions:
High resolution: .010 inch (.254 mm) Low resolution: .013 inch (.330 mm)
High resolution provides noticeably smoother vertical walls, and handles thin horizontal features better, but takes roughly 30% longer to complete a model.
Model Interior Fill is the pattern and density of material deposited within the interior of the object (the top and bottom of the parts will always be solid). The FDM process generally builds objects as a thin external skin with an interior that is filled with criss-crossing strands of plastic. The amount of air space between the strands in the fill can be varied in order to conserve material, reduce weight and allow the object to be built more quickly, or to make a fully dense and maximally strong part.
The FDM process does have some limitations:
Due to the layer-by-layer nature of the process, parts may have a tendency to break or separate along layers where the cross-sectional area of the layer is small. Please take this into account when considering your desired build orientation.
Thin surfaces at low angles relative to the vertical direction may not build correctly – for example, a thin knife blade laying on its side.
Holes oriented perpendicular to the vertical direction will exhibit ridging around their circumference - on larger holes this is less of an issue, but when the holes are very small, it can be quite problematic and drilling should be considered as an alternative.
If you are not certain about settings, or whether your design will build successfully, please describe the intended use of the object and we will be happy to assist you.
Post Processing
As the objects are printed, any overhangs or concavities in your objects will have water-soluble support material deposited beneath them to maintain separations and prevent deformation. Once the printing is complete, the support is removed by manually breaking off exterior supports, and dissolving away remaining and interior supports in a detergent bath. This process may take anywhere from a half hour to a full day or more, depending upon the complexity and size of your object. We also offer surface finishing and smoothing options for Dimension parts - please inquire for more details.
Optional Additional Services
File Setup
NextFab Studio offers file preparation services if you are unable to do the setup yourself.
Pricing / Payment Terms
Pricing for Dimension 1200es 3D printing is determined by the amount of raw material used and the labor required for file preparation, job setup, and post-processing. The amount of material used will depend on the dimensions of the object, and your choice of interior fill. Very large and/or delicate objects may require significant labor in job setup and post-processing. The Job Setup / Post-Processing fees include verifying and processing your file, preparing the machine for the job, post-process cleanup, and any post-process surface finishing.
Pricing for 3D printed parts is based on print resolution (layer height) and the amount of material used, calculated in cubic inches.
