Conor Maynard has to dodge the hundreds of pairs of panties thrown at him on stage. The Can't Say No singer was inundated with underwear and other clothing as he performed on his UK tour, but he insists he doesn't mind the flying garments as long as he can get his head out of the way of the clothing. Conor said, "When it hits you in the face, it kind of puts you off. But when it just lands on the stage, it's one of those things where you just ignore it and continue. I think I got hit in the face by a scarf at the show in Manchester. It actually kind of knocked me sideways so I couldn't even continue singing for a second. I had to kind of re-adjust myself."
Despite the female attention, the 19-year-old pop star, who celebrated his first UK number one album with Contrast earlier this year, insists his tour bus is a men-only vehicle. Conor exclusively told BANG Showbiz, "If I invited ladies onto the bus, it would be so cramped and none of us would be able to move. It would be a bit of a vibe killer if I met a girl and made her come on to the bus. Also, we're all guys on there so it's just kind of got beer and stuff all around. It's not really the most welcoming place to walk into, so I wouldn't really bring a girl to the bus if I met a girl. I think she'd probably run away and never speak to me again."
Watch Conor's video for Vegas Girl here and tell us if you've thrown anything onstage at an artist in the comments section below.

How the US Supports Regimes That Support Terrorism
Washington has an advanced relationship with Kuwait, the small Persian Gulf country out of which the U.S. pushed invading Iraqi forces in the 1991 Gulf War. U.S. troops are stationed in Kuwait on a more or less permanent basis, Kuwait receives considerable military assistance and training from the U.S., and in return, Kuwait is "the leading source of funding for al-Qaeda-linked terrorists fighting in Syria's civil war," according to the Washington Post.
Like most of Washington's military and economic relationships with the Arab Gulf states, overriding geopolitical goals like maintaining U.S. hegemony and containing Iran outweigh concerns about Kuwait's support for the kind of Islamic jihadists that have allegedly propelled the bulk of post-9/11 foreign policy. Al-Qaeda and its affiliated groups are the enemies of the U.S., Washington officials remind us constantly, and they are persistently plotting to kill Americans. Oh, and please ignore the fact that our Middle East allies send them money and weapons.
The U.S. relationship with Kuwait consists of "mutual discussions in the event of a crisis; joint military exercises; U.S. evaluation of, advice to, and training of Kuwaiti forces; U.S. arms sales; prepositioning of U.S. military equipment; and U.S. access to a range of Kuwaiti facilities," according to a recent Congressional Research Service report (CRS). In 2004, "the Bush Administration designated Kuwait as a 'major non-NATO ally (MNNA),'" a designation that "opens Kuwait to buy the same U.S. equipment that is sold to U.S. allies in NATO."
"During 2003-2011," according to CRS, "there were an average of 25,000 U.S. troops based in Kuwaiti facilities, not including those rotating into Iraq at a given time." In 2012, then Defense Secretary Leon Panetta noted, "that there were about 13,500 U.S. troops in Kuwait."
One would think it would be implicit in the U.S.-Kuwaiti relationship that Kuwait, as the recipient of all kinds of U.S. aid, privileges, and benefits, would refrain from supporting terrorist groups characterized as America's greatest enemies by the highest Washington officials. And one would be wrong.
The Washington Post:
The amount of money that has flowed from Kuwaiti individuals and through organized charities to Syrian rebel groups such as Jabhat al-Nusra totals in the hundreds of millions of dollars, according to experts whose estimates are endorsed by the Treasury Department.
…Last month, the [Obama] administration decided to go public with its concerns. In a remarkably undiplomatic statement that officials said had been cleared at senior levels, Treasury Undersecretary David S. Cohen called Kuwait "the epicenter of fundraising for terrorist groups in Syria."
Kuwait is not unique. Saudi Arabia, the cornerstone of U.S. national security policy in the Middle East, has a long and duplicitous history of harboring Islamic extremists of the al-Qaeda, jihadist type. Most recently, the Saudis have led the charge in aiding terrorist groups fighting in Syria. It is a similar story for Qatar.
In Yemen, al-Qaeda groups have long been tolerated and even cultivated. There are "many Yemenis who have come to suspect that their government is not fighting, but helping cultivate, jihadi activity in their country," Foreign Policy has reported. Abdulghani al-Iryani, a Yemeni political analyst, has said as much about the former Saleh regime and he told Foreign Policy that the collaboration between the new U.S.-supported Yemeni regime and al-Qaeda militants continues. "At all levels of Yemen's political elite you have collusion and cooperation with militants and terrorists," he said.
The Pakistani government has intricate ties to jihadist groups and even provided Osama bin Laden with safe haven for years after 9/11. Over the past six years though, U.S. taxpayers have sent them more than $10 billion dollars.
U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East has always been about maintaining dominance over the region, keeping the governments relatively weak and dependent (and undemocratic), and ensuring access to and control over the vast oil and gas resources of the region. The terrorist backlash against this imperialistic and often violent foreign policy is mostly a distraction for U.S. strategists, despite the fact that it became the primary ideological justification for increased U.S. interventionism in the region.
At this point, U.S. policy is perpetuating a dangerous contradiction. Strategists would like to think that this imperialism can be implemented without the blowback of violent extremists and without certain U.S. "allies" directly supporting these terrorists. But it, apparently, cannot be done. Don't hold your breath for a change in policy to relieve this cognitive dissonance.

The US own funding and arming of terrorist's war crimes remain legitimate.
Aren't they running afoul of terrorism laws? The American people have been taken for a ride on the GWOT. We were exposed to bold language from US politicians regarding the threat of state sponsored terrorism for over a decade and then we find the US in bed with them. The establishment took their new Pearl Harbor and ran with it. It was a stroke of good fortune for them and misery for everyone else.
The USG is the government chosen by the Americans war machinery, these illegitimate kingdoms have the oil, the ideal location for US military and money, they also give political support and economic to any president that supports them, which thus far every one of US president since 1970s when the British colonialism packed and left their military bases in Dubai, Abu Zabi, Sharjah, Qatar and Saudi Arabia was taken over by the Americans. You want to do some thing about it, don't fly emirate airlines or the air Berlin, or Kuwaiti airline or Saudis airline and others like Turkish airline, they all are owned by regimes that supports terrorism and Syrian war.

Saturated fat in its natural state in whole foods (meat, eggs, fish, coconut) is the healthiest source or caloric intake for humans.
I've been researching this for months since my mom had a heart attack and I was diagnosed with very high blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Do some digging into the commonly spread "wisdom" and you'll see there is no clear science to back the blaming of atherosclerosis on saturated fats.
Oh, for the commenter who said Canola oil is healthy, search out the online video on how it's made. I think you'll change your mind.

Elms Make A Comeback In The Elm City
by Thomas MacMillan | May 30, 2014 1:21 pm
(3) Comments | Commenting has been closed | E-mail the Author
Posted to: Environment, Wooster Square
In a one-gallon pot on her front steps, Cordalie Benoit is growing a piece of New Haven history, and taking part in a now nationally recognized community gardening effort.
The plant on Benoit's steps on Wooster Square's Court Street is a young elm tree, the kind of tree that once flourished in New Haven, earning the city its nickname.
The elm tree population collapsed in the Elm City in the mid-20th century, thanks to beetle-born Dutch Elm Disease. For six years, Benoit and her fellow members of the New Haven Garden Club have been working to bring the elm back to town, and to educate people about its historic significance in the history of the Green.
Those efforts recently earned the club a national award from the Garden Club of America. At the national club's annual meeting two weeks ago in New Orleans, the New Haven Garden Club learned that it had won the Founders Fund award. That means the New Haven club will receive $30,000 to continue its efforts.
Those efforts include nursing baby elms and then giving them away to people looking to plant a historic tree in their yard. For several years, Benoit has been one of a number of "foster parents" who have reared young elms to hand off to loving homes.
The young elms are of the Jefferson American variety, which is resistant to Dutch Elm Disease. The club has also nursed elms grown from seeds taken from two large elms still standing in New Haven, Benoit said. "We're hoping they're naturally resistant. We'll see."
The club has also produced a DVD about the history of the Green, given to teachers throughout the city, and two walking tours of the Green. One of the tours is pamphlet-based and focused on trees. People can pick up the directions at the Yale visitor center or at the New Haven information center at the corner of College and Chapel.
The other tour is telephonic. On the Green, dial 203-672-4384 to be walked through half an hour of Green history.
Edwards said that the Founders Fund award will allow the club to bring schoolchildren down to the Green to take the tours.
As she showed off her young elm on her steps this week, Benoit pointed out a "volunteer" elm that had sprouted on its own in another plot. Large elms still exist in New Haven, and drop thousands of fluffy oat-like seeds in the spring, which pile up in little drifts and occasionally take root.
Benoit took a stroll to the corner of Olive Street, to point out a venerable old elm (pictured below)—apparently disease resistant—standing there. You can spot an elm by it's distinctive "vase shape," Benoit said. The canopy arches like flowers spilling out of a vase. Elms also have gray, ridged bark, and the leaves have serrated edges.
"It's a beautiful tree," Benoit said of the specimen on Olive Street.
Maybe her little sapling elm will one day stand as tall. "Yes!" Benoit said. "Wouldn't it be cool?"

I'd love to know which are the two trees in New Haven that are being used as parents for the experimental seedlings. Is one of them the featured tree at Olive and Court? Where is the other one.
We had a large healthy elm beside our driveway in the 1980s, when we lived at 188 Willow Street, next door to Archie Moore's, on a double lot where we had a side lawn and a garden. When we outgrew the house and put up a For Sale sign, the then-owner of Archie's called that same day to offer the asking price, and as soon as he closed on the house, he bulldozed that tree along with everything else in the side yard and most of the back yard, and paved it over for a parking lot.

Two Love Birds Cake Topper or Photography Props -- Double Sided Chalkboard Signs on a Stick
ByProduct Info
This is a set of two love birds ideal to use as a cake topper for weddings or as table numbers. The birds are made of lightweight foam core (foamboard), coated with three thick layers of chalkboard paint, so that you can write cute messages such as "Love birds" or "Mr. and Mrs." and personalize your cake toppers according to your preferences.
These two birds may also be used as a photography prop or a prop in a silent movie, or as a plant stake or sign for your potted plants. The possibilities of using these cute chalk board signs are endless. All you need is a piece of chalk and a damp piece of cloth to wipe off the chalk.
The blackboard birds are mounted on a thin wooden stick, which is removable. This listing is for two chalkboard love birds and two sticks. Each bird measures approximately 5 inches (12.7 cm) from beak to tail and 4 inches (10 cm) in height , while each stick is 6 inches (15 cm) tall. The entire cake topper measures a little over 9 inches (aprox. 23 cm).
Please note that the chalkboards don't come with text written on them. You will receive 2 bird chalk boards as pictured in the second photo (no text, you'll get to personalize your chalkboards)
I recommend regular, old-school chalk for these chalkboards.
Thanks for stopping by, please read our policies for shipping times and other shop info:
**Please note that these are foam core chalkboards, cut and painted manually; you may notice subtle traces of paintbrush, which prove each item is handmade and sets it apart from mass-manufactured items.**
***The pictures, design and text of this chalkboard listing are property of ChalkStyle. DO NOT use the photos or text within this listing without asking for permission. Thanks! ***

Election Year Anxiety
Confession time: It's campaign season, and I am stressing. And guys, it's not even the results I'm worried about (well, OK, not only the results).
My first election as a registered voter was in 2008, my freshman year of college. I caucused in my home state, Hawaii, and was totally excited to experience a big election on a college campus — until I met my roommate. As I hung my Obama/Biden posters, she declared her love for the GOP (and her boyfriend made racist jokes about my man Barack on the regular). As you might imagine, by Election Day the atmosphere in our tiny dorm room was tense.
Now, as the 2012 presidential race enters the home stretch, I'm feeling that anxiety all over again.
When I watched the first debate at PSU on Oct. 3rd, I saw a few familiar faces around the room, and I started to wonder: Who are they voting for? Should I ask? I'd like to think I could have a rational political discussion with any of my classmates, but that isn't always what happens. I'm proud of my convictions, but defending them to someone with different beliefs often leads to heated confrontations or awkward social situations — and nobody likes that.
So what should I do? I can't just stop talking to everyone who disagrees with me until Nov. 2nd. How do you deal with election year awkwardness?
Mike Briggs #
Ah, I too am involved in the political arena both on a national basis but also locally here in Clark County Washington where I reside.
I would say, if you "openly where your political colors", that is to say, you advertise what or whom you believe in and support by hanging posters, adorn your vehicle with bumper stickers, etc., you are advertising and inviting comment from others around you. This should not surprise you. For these people who make contact with you, don't they have the right also to defend or support the candidate or issues of their choice? Are you not inviting them to do so?
I think to avoid any awkwardness I would be prepared to speak concisely and to accurately state facts in support of your beliefs and claims. I think you should be prepared for people who only speak from their emotions and beliefs more so and less from facts and figures.
If you look upon the election season as something of real importance for you, others around you, and your country than you should be ready and willing to support those views. However, if the election season is more of just excitement, glamor, and flag waving–you may choose to only associate with like-minded people for the entertainment value of this venue.
October 15, 2012 -
Whether anyone agrees with you or not is irrelevant, it is against the PSU code of conduct to make racist remarks especially which make other people uncomfortable and the intentions of those remarks are to get a response. It is your obligation to report the offender to the proper authorities so he does not offend anyone else!

Assisted Prominent Seattle Businessman in Evading Income Taxes
RUSSELL J. BROWN, a businessman from Teton County, Wyoming, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Seattle to aiding and assisting in the filing of a false tax return of Paul D. Bekins. Bekins is the former President, Treasurer and majority stock owner of Bekins Moving and Storage in Seattle, Washington. Bekins pleaded guilty for his role in this offense in September 2004.
Brown and Bekins were both members of Tower Executive Resources (Tower), an organization based in Denver, Colorado which assisted its members evade federal income taxes. Tower was operated by Paul D. Harris, Lester R. Retherford, and Robert N. Bedford. Tower helped its members set up offshore bank accounts and offshore corporations to hide income from the IRS. Most of these offshore corporations were established in the Turks and Caicos Islands in the British West Indies, a known tax haven. While these corporations were owned on paper by a local taxicab driver from the Turks and Caicos Islands, they were actually controlled by the Tower members. Taxpayers paid up to $50,000 to join Tower and use its services. Harris and Retherford were convicted after a lengthy trial and are currently incarcerated. Bedford is scheduled to go to trial in Denver later this year. Over the years, numerous other Tower members from around the country have been prosecuted for tax fraud as part of this scheme.
According to the plea agreement, Brown assisted Bekins in attempting to evade federal income taxes through a series of complicated schemes designed by Tower. The schemes were designed to move income earned by Bekins, through corporations controlled by Brown, and into offshore corporations controlled by Bekins. In one such scheme, Brown funneled approximately $2.5 million from the sale of Bekins Moving and Storage's records storage business through one of Brown's corporations and into Bekins's offshore corporation. Subsequently, Bekins failed to report this income on his tax returns. As a result, Brown helped Bekins evade approximately $1.3 million in federal income taxes. Brown will be sentenced later this year.
This case was investigated by the Internal Revenue Service - Criminal Investigation, and prosecuted by Senior Litigation Counsel Robert Westinghouse and Department of Justice Trial Attorney Robert Livermore.

About Joan Vass
Drawing upon her education in philosophy and aesthetics, Joan Vass set out to work in the art world. Beginning as an assistant curator of drawing and prints at the Museum of Modern Art, she then went on to edit art tomes for Harry N. Abrams and as a contributing columnist for the Art in America. It was during this time that Joan developed an interest in hand knits and crochets. She tapped into the skills of local women to produce her first designs. Fashion arbiter Henri Bendel bought this first collection, which consisted of hats and mufflers. It quickly sold out, changing Joan's career from observer of art to creator of art.
Incorporated in 1977, her eponymous collected expanded into sweaters for both sexes. Using the same local artisans, the designs were unique, limited and beautifully crafted. Demand for Joan's quirky unstructured knitwear grew during the 1980's prompting large-scale production under the label Joan Vass USA. Encompassing all components of a complete wardrobe - sweaters, trousers,
skirts & dresses, the aesthetic remained the same, with fine fabrics, natural fibers and ageless designs.
Joan's unique approach, that of eliminating the excess, leaving a timeless, season-less collection garnered her many accolades, including the Extraordinary Women in Fashion Critics award and the Prince Machiavelli Prix de Cachet award.

Excellent improver dance that went down well with a mixed ability and age range in the class. A good dance for introducing vaudeville heel jacks and a track that everyone knows!
Rick\'n\'Chris Brodie - 14/06/2010
Simple dance, nice quick and easy teach - some of the class struggled with the last 4 counts - why? don't know but they did.
Liz Carr - 10/06/2010
What a brilliant improver dance from Kay to the music from Dolly Parton 9-5. Your classes will love it. I like how the beginning of each wall is danced on the diagonal and that there is only 1 re-start which is easy to identify. You must give it a try.
Lisa Bessinger - 02/06/2010
Great dance which was very well received. Some unusual step combinations which kept everyone on their 'toes'. Hope it does well.
Alan-&-Fi Haywood - 20/05/2010
Great little dance Kim. I actually picked this up when it was danced at our own event. It has typical Kim steps and very well choreographed to the music. Another hit for you Kim! But then, I've always loved the song so a winner from the off!
Kathleen Vasey - 04/05/2010
Taught this Improver dance to a class this morning - they loved it so much we did it 3 times - just one easy restart - soon got to do the last 8 counts ok - Fabulous dance Kim - keep them coming xxxx
Kumari Tugnait - 29/04/2010
This is a really fun little dance, perfect for improvers but also one that I think intermediates will like as an easy break to the harder ones. The last 8 counts proved to be a little tricky but both classes I have taught it to enjoyed it. I'm sure they'll be singing along soon as well!! Great feel-good dance, nice one Kim :o)

Piyaju, beguni, chhola, halim, muri and jilapi are the hot favourites across iftar tables. While some of these serve as 'comfort' foods, they can make fasting the next day more difficult. Most of the typical foods eaten at iftar happen to be greasy and DEEP fried, which are a big no-no after a day of fasting. So, if you are one of those who either do not like these or want to opt for healthier and yummier iftar options, here's what you can try out. Just keep in mind that iftar is the 'power meal' of the day and you do not want to feel undernourished or end up with an upset stomach in the end.
Hello, Hydration!
Lack of water during the intense heat of the day will need to be addressed by sunset, so refreshing drinks are a must-have when breaking the fast. Dates and water or milk are not only nutritious but also a humble and traditional way to break the fast. The sweet taste and high sugar content of the dates provide much needed energy. Since Ramadan falls during summer this year, there is a high availability of seasonal summer fruits. Try out fresh smoothies. A sip of a glass of chilled fruity goodness is surely a blessing.You could also try lassi made from yoghurt or laban which is a buttermilk-style drink.
Too many servings of sherbets and sweets with added sugar can be unhealthy. Avoiding the caffeine content in drinks such as tea, coffee and cola is also wise, unless you are a coffee addict like me.
The Big Fill
It's customary for those breaking the fast to start light, by consuming salad, soup or a stew first. Soups or stews can replace the traditional halim and these lighter options won't make you feel as bloated afterwards. If you add a few dumplings to your soup, it will further help you to feel full. A bowl of whole grain cereal with milk and dry fruits will not let you down either.
Your iftar can also have a satisfying serving of grilled delicacies instead of the deep-fried, acidity-inducing options. Grilled potatoes can be an alternative to the oily 'alur chop.' Chicken and other root vegetables can also be grilled and served with green salad. Chapati/ruti made without oil fit easily on the same platter. Noodles, pasta, sandwiches and even rice might be taken at iftar, given that the quantity is moderate. I have not seen anyone try fish at iftar. Why not give it a go?
Sugar Rush
If you have a sweet tooth or need some sugary bites to get you going, you do have a handful of options to choose from. In case you find jilapi to be overly twisted and trying to hypnotise you with their circular patterns, try milk-based sweets and puddings for a change. Sweet yoghurt is also a great substitute. Other sweet treats during iftar can be pancakes or bread filled with Nutella, cream or crushed walnuts and almonds.
Iftar, consumed after several hours of fasting, is an important meal and hence must be tasty, nutritious and fulfilling. Though it is the safest to stick to home-made food, what's Iftar without a peek into the lavish iftar feasts of Old Dhaka? An exception can be made once a week.

The most important thing that a father can offer to their daughters lives is a good role model for what a good husband should be. By living their lives as an example of what hard work, commitment, understanding and presence in the home environment, a father will have giving their daugthers an abundance of knowledge of what they should look for when trying to find a future husand and father for their children. Raising daughters may not be easy or fun, but it is very important. We men need to realize that we are the fathers of the mothers of the next generation and guide them to become responsible people.

I appreciate the knowledge given on the role of Father towards daughter.Mother is the first Guru for the children because most of the time Father is away from home in his duties to earn for the family. But even then Father should give freedom to children and he can act as a friend ,so that they can express freely their feelings and views about any issue.So be careful for doing anything. Two little eys are watching behind you. They will imitate you.

Sigmund Freud says there is natural attraction for girl children to their father and male children to their mother. A father is a father and if any girl child gets the impression her husband should be like her father then the father had failed in his duty for proper growth of the child.

Arkhon Infaustus - Torturer
This interview was conducted by ex-staffer/cocksmoker Doomsdayzach.
Introduction by The Lord: Yeah, we know, that logo is fucken unreadable. Anyways, staffer Doomsdayzach was willing to interview Arkhon Infaustus as soon as Osmose approached us with it. As you will notice in a second, Zach's not exactly sucking these guys' cocks. And that's what makes it so funny. No one else on staff wanted to spend their precious time coming up with some questions for these French bastards, so Zach stepped in and saved the day. It takes balls to interview a frog eating bunch of black metallers (with some very weird English sometimes, as you will notice), and we applaud Zach for the effort put into this interview. Torturer (a.k.a Guillaume Warren, which is a hella cooler name than his moniker), who's doing bass and 2nd vocals is the poor bastard having to put up with some serious bashing. One thing though, Guillaume seems to think that Zach is Swedish. That's great, becoz Sweden rules. Enjoy!
Global Domination: Apparently Osmose has asked us to do an interview with you. They haven't read my review yet, so it's understandable that they're trying to do their job, asking people to promote the album. So let's get get to it shall we? We'll start off pleasant. How are you today?
Torturer: Ok, drunk and high. I've been doing lots of inties lately and speaking again and again about quantic physics and theology almost became boring, I'll gladly listen to your shit man. Kind of fresh, though I found that if you really dislike our music, you could have been a lot more funny and picky.
"Orthodoxyn" is a pretty sweet Incantation cover album. What made you to do an entire album of Incantation music?
I think that it is the lamest comparison ever, come on! You could say a cover album from Neurosis and Deicide, maybe? Incantation? That's not even sarcastic, it's just too far from reality. Come on, did you ever, ever, ever fucking hear "Onward to Golgotha"??? Or maybe you don't know shit about extreme metal and all death metal bands still sound the same to you with heavy guitars and guttural vocals? Then you would be excused for being so lame.
No, just kidding. "Orthodoxyn" is actually pretty terrible. But you really like Incantation, don't you? Of course you do. This is just like a bastardized version of their material, except not interesting. Not that Incantation is the greatest band in the world to begin with…
Well, it's true that "Onward to Golgotha" is one of the best death metal albums. And I agree with you, if you except the cover, the sound and the guitar riffs, the dual vocals, the ambiance, the lyrical concepts, well, then it's just a pale copy. And what the fuck, it's true, it's guttural vocals and distorted guitars, and it all sounds the same to you, baby. I know, I felt the same when I was 10 years old.
Do you really think you have the balls to be man enough to answer these questions? I mean, it makes no difference to me. If they aren't answered within about a month or so, I'll just post the blank questions so our readers can see what you didn't answer. Not to be a dick or anything… Well, I guess I'm being a dick.
Well, to tell the truth I really wanted to not answer them when I read your pity and useless threat. I liked the idea of you feeling super-strong and super-nasty behind your screen. But then again, as I am having a lot of inties right now, some of them being complex and interesting, and you can guess how it is to answer all the time at the same questions all the time, it's refreshing for me to get to a lower level. And you're not being a dick at all. If you had slicy questions you'd be, that's just more like an average American teenager trying to be picky via the internet, well uh, that's more like being a ballsack than being a nasty prick.
I have to honestly say "Orthodoxyn" is one of the most boring cd's I've ever heard. I mean, fucken hell, I listened to the damn thing about 10 or 11 times and nothing has stuck. Not a goddamn thing. I have a hard time even paying attention to it. What the hell man?
At least we're in your top five man, the best/the worst, at least the ones that got you anyway. But I understand your website selling point is to kinda try to make fun of bands you don't like, and I understand that you have to show off to make your point it's really fine with me. Osmose asks you to make an intie, that's their job. You try to make fun of bands, that's the way you sell your shit, it's business. I can understand.
Seriously dude, I haven't yet decided on my final score, but it's getting either a 1 or a 2 depending on my mood when I upload it. The fact that it fails so epically is worth something though right? I mean, are you proud that you guys have reached a low that is held only by Metallica's "St. Penis" and few others?
I'd be for the 1, man. 2 would be "just bad", 1 being really crappy. And fuck, I made the intie for ya, so just put 1 for the effort I made there. Well, I didn't hear that Metallica album, I'm deeply sorry mate. Well, at least it must be good enough for people to still say " – Hey maaan, the last Metallica suuuuxxxxx really baaaad, that's really far from Master of fucking Puppets". Well, that's really of no interest to us. I'm letting you discuss if it's cool that Metallica's bass player left or whatever, and don't forget to say we're a bunch of crap too and man, believe me, you must be such a jackass if that "St Penis" joke makes you laugh, and you should learn French to just to see our movies from the 80's. You'd love them.
I mean, let's be reasonable here. Most bands get either a positive or negative reaction from the listener. That means that they're able to evoke some sort of emotion within people, be it a pleasant listen (like Tiny Tim… that guy fucken rawks) or extreme disgust (again… like Tiny Tim). You guys do neither. Are you really satisfied by making music that just sits in the musical purgatory of "Zach doesn't give a shit"? Oh, by the way, my name is Zach. What's yours?
You mean you don't even realize trying to be nasty to you have a negative reaction??? No way man, you can't be so dumb really, I can't believe it. I really start to doubt this intie is a fake one, I mean, then let's rate the album 5, that would no interest 5. 1 is lame so it's negative reaction, 10 the best album ever. 5 is the useless one, not good/not bad. Oh and my nickname is Torturer, and fuck, at least you can say my nickname is cool and evil.
"Orthodoxyn" is the first album I've heard from you guys. It'll more than likely be the last, but just to play devils advocate, is this what your other stuff sounds like? And please don't give me that horseshit that every band gives upon releasing a new disc. " – Oh, this is the greatest stuff we've ever done". Seriously, it'd benefit you to say that your new disc sucks gigantic, hairy nutsack.
That album is the best we ever made, it's a new step for us. If you need a good price for the others, just ask me. Or suck our dicks and I'll let you have one for free.
Congratulations on the mediocre cover art. Probably the best thing about the album because I don't have to hear it. Who did it? Why? What's your point? Penis?
"Penis", what a funny word, you like that word, don't you ? That's the point about the intie, "Penis". How cool, how funny and how sarcastic. You know it's gonna make all teens jiggle with laughters. I mean how many good jokes do you have with the word "Penis"? (Note by The Lord: Not fucken many enough) You must be the king of restless nights. Our work fails to you, but how good and funny do you really think your question is? I'd rather say, did you really believe this question to be funny?
What about the first two releases. Something about sperm and another one about sweaty cunt-rash or something, I can't remember. Don't you think that's a bit juvenile for black/death metal?
Not at all. As we are not huge nerds laughing with the Penis word, we have a full sexual life. I think that in the contrary extreme metal is often too juvenile to deal with sperm and drugs and visions and understanding. The second release was called "Dead Cunt Maniac" and man, that's the lamest title I ever found, but it's good because it deals with a porn obsessed mind that starts to kill, and it's like words from the character himself. Ever seen "Taxidermist"? Well, that could be the first character's words. Gasp, sorry mate, I guess your type of movie would rather be "Wayne's World". Cooool man, cool, but I still can't quote it.
Sweet. Well, let's talk about the label for a bit. God knows this conversation about Arkhon Infaustus isn't going anywhere. Osmose has some cool stuff. I think they're distributed by The End Records in the states, so I get some of their other stuff every now and then. Yyrkoon is pretty good. Can you hook me up with an interview with those dudes?
Well, I can ask Osmose to. But I don't have the contacts. It's another side of the French scene. You should check Imperial from Osmose too, you're gonna love it, it's very Penis oriented kind of humor. Hey man, actually check this, know Google ? Just found it out for you, you owe me a beer at the next Arkhon Infaustus concert in Sweden: www.yyrkoon.net (Note by The Lord: I think it's safe to say that Zach won't be traveling from the States to Sweden to give you guys a beer)
Oh shit, I just realized Yyrkoon is also French. Do you know those dudes? If so, does it give you some sort of inferiority complex being friends with such ace musicians?
We are as skilled musicians as you are a great journalist, for sure. Remember the old times? It's about feeling man, feeeeeling. You can listen to jazz and whatever technical kind of music, I'll never inferior because of that. We would not play black metal if we were into techniques. Oh, and to sum it up: Don't care, don't care, don't care.
I guess I can't slag on your musicianship because I couldn't pay attention long enough to hear any possible skill. So who's better, Marduk or Mayhem?
So you can listen to something 10 or 11 times without even seeing if the musicians are skilled. That must the secret of how good a journalist you are. You really kick ass.
What does Osmose really see in you guys? I just can't figure out what the fuck you have to offer. Do you at least have a really fat guy in the band or something that does killer stuff, so when people see you live (god forbid…) they can go " – Man, that band sucked, but did you see that fat guy bust out that shit? That was awesome".
I wish you could suddenly be stricken by understanding and sight. Did you ever realized that a band could be perceived differently according to different people? Come on, you really thought that your taste is every fucking people's taste??? I mean, I know myself that your penis jokes will make laugh teenagers and metal nerds, but surely not us and neither the one of our kind. And I really think that you could have made a fucking good interview with hating us so much. Too bad you're more dumb than nasty.
Nothing is more metal than being a big fat guy. I'm working on getting fat. Any suggestions on ways I can accomplish this goal? Either that or I need to start waxing my chest and get fucking buff so I can be the stand-in for Manowar covers when they get too old to pose in their loincloths.
Every time you say "Penis", just have some KFC chicken wings. Every time you laugh from it, have a double portion.
A friend of mine once said he took his scrotum and rested it on his cat's head while his cat was laying on his lap. He fucking teabagged his cat… True story! Awesome right?
Nice nerd story. Man, internet was made for you. You must be some of this people who send all their contacts some lame Powerpoint jokes. Come on, I know you do. Did you send me that "fake or real tits" one?
What's the biggest benefit of being French? Is it the low expectations the rest of the world has for you, or the fact that you can be a snobby prick and people just think that it's par for the course? Also, French chicks are fucking hot, but they don't shave, which sucks. Unless French chicks have started shaving in the last few years. Have things changed? Am I just uninformed?
No, you are very well informed. It's so funny to play witch clichés, it really is. Your forgot that we all have "un berret et la baguette sous le bras", and a nice mustache. I mean, what a nice and good laughter, and all Swedish people are woodcutters (Note by The Lord: What's with the hostility against the Swedes, you beret-wearing canary?), all Spanish people dance flamenco… That's hours of jokes in front of you!
Dude, I'm having a hard time even paying attention to these fucking questions. Damn dude, you're permeating every realm of my existence! Hold on, I'm going to take a shit. I'll be back soon.
Don't stay too long, I only have a few minutes for you.
Ahh, that was more entertaining than listening to your disc, that's for sure. But I think everyone can appreciate a good dump. I'll be fair and say that was more entertaining than most bands out there. But really, what's more satisfying: jerking off or taking a huge dump?
Believe my new nerd friend, there are a lot more things interesting out there. Close your second life account, wipe your ass clean and try to buy yourself a life.
Why do Michael J Fox's Polaroids develop quicker than others?
Is that the kind of question you think about having a shit ? Oh, you and your exciting life.
So what do you guys have to do with Karnal Films? They're on your top friends of your MySpace, and you're first on theirs. It sure as hell ain't because of your music I'd bet. Did you guys star in the gay scene or what? And what the hell is with the black metal porn thing? That's a fucking stupid idea.
We are not all nerds having problems with sex or porn. Ever had sex with a real girl? Try one day, and I mean without paying anything. Do you blur when you see pictures of naked girls ?
Put more tits on your MySpace page and more people might check it out and stay longer.
Couldn't you make it shorter? For both you and me?
Are all the other bands that the members of Arkhon Infuckstick are a part of also as hopelessly miserable as this album was?
No, it's even worse.
Now onto the important questions. I'm tired of coming up with a million ways to insult your band. Would you give up one of your testicles to have poses that are half as epic as Abbath's?
No, you are not insulting my band cause it raises nothing in you, remember ?
Who has the best corpsepaint in all of black metal?
That's great, you tried to be funny without saying "penis"! The problem is, maybe you were better with "penis" finally.
Which album that you've heard lately is the best? I need to know so I can avoid it like the plague.
Neurosis, Deathspell Omega, Mutiilation. Avoid it, pure anti-nerd.
You don't seem like real satanists. Watain would not approve.
Ok, we have it. The most un-informed and lame question, it's this one.
Have you ever had a Hot Carl? Do you want one?
Man, you are as crude and raw as Sade himself. Keep these for the nerd forums to be seen as a nasty metal punk. You're not gonna shock anybody else with this.
Have you checked out www.globaldomination.se? What did you think? Best site ever, huh?
The website is pretty good yeah. It's clear.
Well, I'm out. Dude, if you actually answered these questions, fucking kudos. You've earned tons of respect for not running away like a typical Frenchie. If not, I'll make sure to post these questions and request that the hordes of Global Domination readers go forth and spread the word that you guys are the worst band ever and deserve to be skullfucked. Last words, bitch! Justify your existence right now!
I was pretty deceived, cause I really thought in the beginning it would be more aggressive or ironic (the first sentence was really good and immediately gave me the will to answer "Apparently Osmose has asked us to do an interview with you. They haven't read my review yet" – that was good). It was lame in just two seconds after. I mean, I like the concept in the first place, you say what you think about a band. But then, don't overplay it. And most important: why then just be stupid and lame? God has given you nerds a keyboard to feel like you can also exist into our world, so thank Him and bless Him everyday that you can try to insult people that are not in front of you, and talk to girls without bluring like a teenager. Amen.

Bye Bye Fiesta :-(

Welcome to Ford Owners Club

After 4 years of trouble free motoring we are finally saying goodbye to our trusty Fiesta. I wasnt going to get rid of the car but the decision has been forced on me by the NHS screwing up an operation which has left me with very limited use on my left hand. thedamage has meant that it has become increasingly painfull to drive a manual car so I have had to go for an Auto now. Also the operation wasnt as successfull as we were hoping inasmuch that I cannot walk far without getting short of breath. I am on full Disability living and mobility allowance, this means that I now qualify for a brand new car on the Motability Scheme and this is what I have now done. I checked the availiabilty as to what was availiable without incurring an additional deposit which some cars have added to them, sadly this included many of the Fords. Only the very basic Fiestas came without this surcharge. Eventually I found something that was deposit free, has loads of toys and gadgets, a fantastic warranty and a dealer that bent over backwards to ensure that I got what I needed. That car is a Kia Cee'd 1.6 diesel auto and I should be taking delivery next week. The Fiesta meanwhile is going to a good home. The dealer I originally bought it from is buying it back off me and he has a buyer lined up already. The car is 13 years old now and in tip top condition, (so it should be after all the money we've spent on it.) so although it's a great car and I shall be sad to see her go I've got to be practical. If in the future some of the Focuses (or should that be Focii ? ) come into the no deposit zone then my next car may be another Ford. In the meantime I shall look forward to the Cee'd and become the "Star in the reasonably priced car!"

Sorry to hear that mate, but at least you have found something decent to get on with.
Just like Jeebowhite you are now a honorary Fordownersclub member without a Ford.
At least you didn't go evil on us and get a Vauxhall (spit)
July 18, 2012, 2:24 pm
WOOOOOOOO!!!!!! another friend who shares the same motor as me! ignoring the fuel and transmission of course! lol
I hope you find the Cee'd an excellent step up in the market, it feels more like a focus than a fiesta, and is a very comfortable drive! if you have any questions on it, just drop me a pm!
...Although I expect you will be getting the brand spanking new 2012 plate Cee'd which is even more mouthwatering!
ooh... which model did you go with? 1 / 2 / 3 / 4?
July 18, 2012, 2:30 pm
WOOOOOO! Jeebowhite doesn't feel lonely anymore.
July 20, 2012, 1:15 pm
damn right! lol
now I get to have another forum member support the idea that the Cee'd is an excellent motor!

The complete Bible of the Revised Standard Version (RSV) was first published in 1952 (with the addition of the Apocrypha in 1957). The revision committee of approximately thirty members continued meeting every two or three years subsequently to consider proposed improvements. The committee's constituency has evolved over the years. In the beginning, its members were mainline Protestant in affiliation, with the exception of a Jewish scholar invited to join the OT section at a late stage. In time, it has come to incorporate more and more Roman Catholic scholars and a scholar of the Greek Orthodox Church. The female constituency of the committee has increased during the same period. The committee and the fruit of its labors is now viewed as thoroughly ecumenical.
In 1971 a new edition appeared which was a revision of the NT but contained only minor changes in the OT. Because of social changes in the decade of the sixties and the early seventies, in 1974 the National Council of Churches of Christ (NCCC), sponsor of the project, authorized work leading toward a further revision. This revision is now available under the title of the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV).
Typical of some miscellaneous changes is a deference to the Jewish connotation of Xrist3ow (Christos, "Anointed One") in the NT by rendering it "Messiah" in some passages where it had been "Christ," particularly in the gospels and Acts (e.g. Matt 16:16; Acts 2:36; 17:5; 26:23; Rom 9:5). Sometimes this creates confusion, however, when it is near the name "Jesus Christ" which is always rendered in the conventional manner (e.g. Acts 2:36, 38). Following their new policy, one wonders why the NRSV translators did not use "Messiah" in Hebrews, an epistle whose addressees were of a distinctly Jewish background (for example, see Heb 3:6; 6:1).
Some infelicitous expressions in older editions have been improved. In Ps 50:9 "I will accept no bull from your house" (RSV) has been revised to read, "I will not accept a bull from your house" (NRSV). "Once I was stoned" (RSV) in 2 Cor 11:25 is now "once I received a stoning" (NRSV). Racial sensitivity is reflected in a simple change from "but" to "and" in Song of Solomon 1:5; instead of "very dark, but comely" (RSV), the NRSV reads "black and beautiful."
Apart from miscellaneous changes of this type, the translators concentrated their efforts in three general areas, two of which were socially motivated.
(1) One of the social changes was a movement toward less formality in social relationships, including a less formal style of language in public worship. In response to this trend, the NRSV has eliminated the "thee's" and "thou's" in speech addressed to God that characterized its earlier editions. This usage of pronouns distinguished between language addressed to God and that addressed to human beings, a distinction unsupported in the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts of the Bible. Dropping the old-style pronouns has marked most modern versions of the Bible. Besides the RSV, notable exceptions that have not eliminated them are the Modern Language Bible, the New American Standard Bible, and the New English Bible. A recent revision of the NEB, called the Revised English Bible, has now deleted them too.
This part of the project was the simplest and, for most, the least controversial, though it did at times force some rather difficult decisions. As an example of difficulty, corrected to modern style, the opening phrase of the Lord's prayer, "Our Father who art in heaven" (Matt 6:9), would have become "Our Father who are in heaven," but the committee judged this to have an inferior sound. Following other modern versions, they therefore rendered, "Our Father in heaven,"even though it entailed leaving a Greek word untranslated and sounded rather abrupt. They viewed this as the best choice.
(2) The other social change was viewed as more important and has affected the NRSV extensively. This was the widespread movement to eliminate "sex-biased" language. The pressure to adopt inclusive terminology came from leaders of "main-line" churches, most younger women, publishers, and educational organizations. Consequently, the Division of Education and Ministry of the NCCC which commissioned the project directed that "in references to men and women, masculine-oriented language should be eliminated as far as this can be done without altering passages that reflect the historical situation of ancient patriarchal culture." Without question, this aspect of the committee's responsibility was the most difficult.
The NRSV has used various means of incorporating inclusivist language. A few examples illustrate these. "I will make you fishers of men" (Matt 4:19, RSV) is now "I will make you fish for people" (NRSV). Often "brother(s)" (RSV) has become "brother(s) and/or sister(s)" (NRSV) (e.g. Matt 5:22-24, 47; 18:35) and in one instance, "members of my family" (Matt. 25:40, NRSV). In at least one section "brother" (RSV) is rendered "another member of the church" (NRSV) (Matt 18:15, 21), and an inclusive linguistic standard is maintained by repetition of "member" (Matt 18:17) and by an awkward passive, "if you are not listened to" (Matt 18:16). "Awkwardness" is also the word for the Son of Man being betrayed "into human hands" (Matt 17:22, NRSV). It is unnatural English compared with his betrayal "into the hands of men" (RSV).
Sometimes the inclusivist term "neighbor" (NRSV) substitutes for the masculine "brother" (RSV) (Matt 7:4-5). "Man" (RSV) is neutralized to "anyone" (NRSV) and "son" (RSV) to "child" (NRSV) in Matt 7:9-10. "Man" (RSV) is labeled "a human being" (NRSV) in Matt 12:12 and a "person" in Matt 12:43. The alleged sexually biased "men" (RSV) in Matt 12:31 has turned into "people" (NRSV).
The above inclusivist revisions are indicated as such by footnotes which indicate that the Greek text supports the RSV rendering, but one where no such note occurs is Matt 15:18: "a man" (RSV) is omitted from the NRSV without explanation. Also without notation is "mortals" (NRSV) substituted for "men" (RSV) in Matt 19:26.
A case could be lodged that the illustrations given so far offer no great cause for concern, but a further device for accomplishing inclusiveness encounters a distinct practical disadvantage. This involves changing a singular to a plural in order to cover up gender differences. Instances of this are numerous and may be illustrated from Christ's series of teachings calling to discipleship: "Those who lose their life for my sake will find it" (Matt 10:39), and "If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me" (Matt 16:24; see also Luke 17:33; John 12:25, NRSV). In each case, his appeal in the original text is to the individual, not a group. To render plurals as the NRSV does inevitably makes his invitation less personal and compelling. The individual focus of his invitation disappears through a different means in Rev 3:20, that of changing from third person to second: "If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to you and eat with you, and you with me." In the context of Revelation 3, this is easily construed as a group invitation to the whole Laodicean church rather than to individuals within the church.
The pluralizing device has also obscured the Messianic implications of at least one OT passage, Ps 8:4-6 (cf. Heb 2:6-9). In 1 Tim 3:2 inclusivist language has forced a return to an earlier rendering, discarded in the 1971 revision because it was too interpretive. From "married only once" in 1952, the version changed to the more literal "the husband of one wife" in 1971. The NRSV reverts to "married only once" and limits the phrase's meaning to one of several possible interpretations of the Greek text.
Some aspects of the translation were exempt from inclusivist language, however. Masculine terms for God, such as "Father," "Lord," and "King" have been retained. It was decided that these were inherent in the biblical text. Also the psalmist in Psalm 109 was left as a male because the committee could find no satisfactory way to make the language inclusive. Possibly to compensate, a way was found to render Psalm 131 as though it were composed by a woman. The masculine flavor of legal language of the Bible in passages such as Exodus 21-23 and Joshua 20 was thought by the committee to have been necessarily retained as well, but this judgment was apparently overruled by a later review body. To illustrate, the committee approved the use of "his" in Exod 21:15, but the NRSV in its final form omits the pronoun in that verse.
(3) In addition to revisions motivated by desires to comply with social change, the committee sought to incorporate recent discoveries from fields of biblical scholarship. Under this heading of endeavors, the committee felt less constrained by tradition than the original RSV committee and altered some more familiar KJV phrases to bring them into closer alignment with recent scholarly opinion.
For example, "paths of righteousness" in Ps 23:3 has become "right paths" in the NRSV, "the valley of the shadow of death" in Ps 23:4 is now "the darkest valley," and "forever" in Ps 23:6 is changed to "my whole life long."
In surveying the NRSV more broadly, this reviewer must express two disappointments, one theological and the other linguistic. The major obstacle to its use by evangelicals remains: theological bias toward looser views of traditional orthodox doctrine that characterized the RSV also characterizes the NRSV. Acts 20:28 is still not rendered as an explicit statement of the deity of Christ, as a natural rendering of the Greek requires, though the manner of avoiding the obvious is different from the original RSV. Another explicit statement of Christ's deity is obscured through the NRSV punctuation of Rom 9:5, not the same as in the RSV but with the same resultant meaning. The theological concept of "propitiation" and its implication regarding God's wrath is still studiously avoided (cf. Rom 3:25; Heb 2:17; 1 John 2:2; 4:10). Some theological improvement over the RSV is evident, but the liberal bias remains.
Committee Chairman Metzger alludes to the linguistic issue in the NRSV's "To the Reader" (p. xi) when he hints at the tension that developed between the committee's maxim, "As literal as possible, as free as necessary," and its mandate to incorporate inclusive language. Inclusive language has made the NRSV a less literal translation than the RSV. Metzger says the new work is essentially literal, but this is a matter of questionable judgment. RSV was already close to the upper limit of literal translations. The added freedom necessitated by efforts to avoid "sexually biased" language may raise the NRSV into the range of what should be called a free translation. In any event, this feature reduces its usefulness as a study tool. This is a shame because the premise regarding "sex-biased" language that generated most of the changes is so weak.
Because of the continuing theological problem and the new linguistic problem, the NRSV will find very limited usefulness among evangelicals.

Farage On Europe: Determined But Delusional
Posted By yihan On March 14, 2012 @ 9:59 am In Featured Stories,Tile | Comments Disabled
Zero Hedge [1]
Wednesday, March 14, 2012
In one of his most vociferous speeches (which is saying something for the eloquent Englishman), UKIP's Nigel Farage takes his peers in the European Parliament to task on their "determined yet delusional" attempt to keep the Euro propped up (as they desperately avoid using the 'D'-word – default). Citing many of the shocking statistics we have ever-so-quietly posted (such as 50% youth unemployment in Greece, the sovereign bond litigation against the Greek government, and the German FINMIN saying a third bailout for Greece is possible), he conjures images of the stuff-upper-lip English ignoring the carnage around them as they enjoy dinner. Striking at the heart of the problem, Farage notes that what is being done is not to save Greece (in fact it will 'crucify' them – as is already evident in their GGB2 pricing) but to save the "failing Euro project" and he ends with a critical lesson for the outspoken political leaders that surround him and their unequivocal statements

Taking Woodstock // Woodstock: 3 Days of Peace and Music
At Filmphonics we celebrate all kinds of music and film combinations from live scores to electronic experiments and sing-alongs. This month we're getting into the festival spirit to celebrate one of the biggest and most legendary festivals ever.
Taking Woodstock is Ang Lee's docudrama about a young man's coming of age and his pivotal role in the making of the festival, starring polymath Demetri Martin as Elliot Tiber.
Woodstock 3 Days of Love and Peace immerses you in the festival as it happened with dynamic, often trippy editing by Martin Scorsese (edited from 120 hours or 50 miles of film) and interviews with the invading hippies and the steadfast locals. As well as being one of the greatest music documentaries of all time (featuring performances from Richie Havens, Joan Baez, The Who, Joe Cocker, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Santana, Sly and the Family Stone, Janis Joplin & Jimi Hendrix) this is also one of the greatest Vietnam protest films made in the United States; Hendrix's climatic rendition of The Star Spangled Banner to a near evacuated field has to be seen and heard.

Go figure: After returning to the revivalist ska scene in 1996 with the listless Today's Specials, the reunited Specials -- the Coventry outfit that started the whole ska-punk thing back in 1979 -- have rebounded with an album that recaptures much of the boundless, rhythmic enthusiasm of their vintage material. Guilty 'Til Proved Innocent!, the group's MCA debut, offers both a skillful updating of the Specials' hyperactive and choppy grooves and relief from the style-conscious drones that litter the nuevo ska front (where aquiring the right suit and porkpie hat seems more important than doing something different with the innovations introduced by the original Specials on genre classics such as "Gangsters," "Stereotype," and "Ghost Town").
True, this new lineup suffers from the absence of Terry Hall's vocals (he washed his hands of the band back in 1981); witness the weak whining of new guy Mark Adams and old Special Roddy Byers on a remake of "Gangsters," one of three live tracks tacked on to the end of Guilty. And there's little here that approaches the politically charged lyrics of departed Specials founder Jerry Dammers (although "Call Me Names" and "Fearful," a toast to paranoia featuring back-up yelps from Rancid's Tim Armstrong and Lars Frederiksen, both come kind of close). Mostly, Guilty succeeds on the sheer force of its music -- the rollicking swing of the horn section on "It's You"; the manic drumming and borrowed Munsters riff that propel "Bonediggin'"; and the furious ebb-and-flow dynamics of the incessantly catchy "Leave It Out." Is it all as satisfying as the breakneck punky ska presented on 1979's The Specials or the cool-jazz pop of 1980's More Specials? No way. Is it better than the facile pop dribblings of the current groups who owe everything they know to the Specials? Um, no doubt.
-- John Floyd
What Makes It Go?
(Minty Fresh)
Forget Brit-pop. There's a seriousness that plagues many English practitioners of the genre: Radiohead's themes of self-loathing, Pulp's obsession with the seamy side of sex, and Stereolab's philosophical blathering. When it comes to perky, truly lighthearted indie pop, look no further than Sweden.
In recent years that nation has churned out one critically acclaimed band after another: Komeda, the Cardigans, the Wannadies, and Cinnamon. Komeda's new What Makes It Go? refines the postpunk-meets-lounge sound the quartet created on its 1996 U.S. debut The Genius of Komeda. In the new songs, time signatures often shift and melodies grow more intricate as each song progresses.
The band's soul lies in the kinetic chemistry between brothers Jonas (keyboards/drums) and Marcus Holmberg (keyboards/bass). Guitarist Mattias Norlander augments the Holmbergs' electronic noodlings, providing rhythmic chords or an added layer of sound. Lena Karlsson's voice is a flexible tool that complements the melodies. She moves from dreamy "daba-daba-dums" on the electronic orgy "Our Hospitality" to a varied delivery on the album-opening "Binario," switching from curt and robotic on the verses to wistful and breezy on the choruses. Her lyrics are somewhat simplistic ("I am curious/I am curious/You are curious/You are curious/He is curious/She is curious," she sings on "Curious"), but at least they aren't as cliched as the ones on The Genius of Komeda, the band's first all-English album. (They have been writing and recording music in their native tongue since 1993.)
Komeda's songs come across as delicately detailed confections for the ear -- pop music that's tasty and aesthetically pleasing. (Minty Fresh, P.O. Box 577400, Chicago, IL 60657)
-- Hans Morgenstern
(Sony/550 Music)
Sunburn bursts open with an industrial flourish that might lead to quick pigeonholing of Fuel alongside angry folks such as Trent Reznor of nine inch nails and the guys in Filter. But then something happens: The band eclipses that already-getting-rusty sound with melody and much welcome diversity, revealing how a modern-rock band can be both noisy and pissed off and sweetly musical on the same disc -- and make it work.
Fuel was conceived by guitarist Carl Bell and bassist Jeff Abercrombie in rural western Tennessee. After recruiting vocalist Brett Scallions and drummer Kevin Miller and selling 5000 copies of a demo tape, the group relocated to the big city -- sort of. Actually, they landed in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, from where they felt they could more easily infiltrate the metropoli lining the eastern seaboard. After selling 10,000 copies of the independent CD Porcelain, Fuel signed with Sony/550 Music. Sunburn is the result of that association.
Clear, concise production by Steven Haigler (the Pixies, Local H) and the band's solid playing propel Sunburn. Scallions sings with confidence, whether rocking full tilt on "Ozone" or employing classic power-ballad technique on "Hideaway." Lyrically, songwriter Bell leans toward familiar tales of confusion and lost love so prevalent among songwriters in their early- to mid-twenties, as on the lazily named lead track "Untitled" or stylistically psychotic "It's Come to This." On the latter Bell has Scallions lamenting "I fear I've wasted all my sun/I fear I've wasted all my time/Held my eyes closed for too long" over a background of changing tempos and grooves.
Label execs picked "Shimmer" as the album's first single, but a more adventurous choice -- the rollicking, socially poignant "Jesus or a Gun" or stop-timed "Bittersweet" -- might give potential fans a higher octane injection.

Georgia Force: The Kats that got away
As we've mentioned on other pages, the original Nashville Kats team went down to Georgia. How did this occur, thoughwere they following the devil's call? Hardly. Atlanta businessman Virgil Williams purchased the franchise for almost 10 million in December 2001. When the team's owners couldn't negotiate a lease with the Nashville Predators to remain in their arena, Williams moved the team to Georgia and applied the Georgia Force moniker. The actual name was chosen by Georgian Anthony Ward through a contest held by the Atlanta Journal Constitution.Williams ran the team for three years. The Force played its first season in 2002, housed in Philips Arena. The arena, which is located in downtown Atlanta, has historically been the home of the NBA Atlanta Hawks and the NHL Atlanta Thrashers. In 2003, the Force moved to the Arena at Gwinnett Center, located in Duluth, and stayed there for two seasons, making it to the playoffs in 2003. When Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank purchased the franchise in 2004, he announced that the team would return to Philips Arena, but the team moved back to the Gwinnett Center in 2008. If this all sounds confusing, consider that the Nashville Kats also played at a number of stadiums in Nashville, but they were mostly all different names for the current Bridgestone Arena.Unfortunately, when the Arena Football League canceled the 2009 season, the Georgia Force also disbanded. However, in 2011, the Alabama Vipers (originally the Tennessee Valley Vipers) will relocate to Georgia and take on the role of the original Force.Quick Facts:Coaches: Robert Lyles (2002); Marty Lowe (2002-2004); Bob Kronenberg (2004); Doug Plank (2005-2008)Mascot: G-Force (original): "a high-tech runner"; Blu (final): a cartoon monsterPlayers: Xavier Beitia, Troy Bergeron, Dialleo Burks, Nate Coggins, Markeith Cooper, Dan Curran, Kevan Gaines, Jason Gamble, Nelson Garner, Willie Gary, Adam Gibbs, Chris Greisen, Chris Jackson, Darryl Hammond, Derek Lee, Bruce McClure, Scottie Montgomery, Earthwind Moreland, Carl Morris, Dary Myricks, Matt Nagy, Jermaine Smith, Eric ZeierSeasons (W-L):2002: 6-82003: 8-82004: 7-92005: 11-52006: 8-82007: 14-22008: 10-6

Suggestion: Allowing control of the mouse location to create your own tether, or create a bounding box (ie: the map). This would allow fast paced games to keep the mouse within the map, and not click outside of it. An example would be a game I recently did:
It could also be useful in other scenarios as dragging something across the map, it would allow the dragged object to stay within the bounds of the map, or bounds of the window.
