From my expeience in China, I understand whomever made the comment about lack of rule of law in China. I signed 8 contracts in China, and 7 were broken and I was more or less told they 'I can break any contract I want' (they 8th person was kind enough to ask me if he could break the contract. The concept of trying to stop someone breaking a contract is unheard of in China, because always one person has the right to break any agreement he wants to...... I would not take that as 'rule of law'...... And why does the government pass a law saying you must buy computer programmes and then run almost ITS computers with pirated programmes?
My experience from my Chinese friends (I lived there for 5 years) is that, while they often don't like the Party, they don't have much reason to want a change, as they get what they want (plenty of things to buy, a good job, etc) and feel these tings are being provided by their government. Their government does have a complicated job to do, as more people join the middle class and have more demands,

Chinacat, dictatorships are not only hereditary ones. In Burma they have clearly a military dictatorship, and the power didn't pass from one leader to his children. Communist dictatorships are not hereditary ones, but they have all the basic characteristics of any authoritarian regime: lack of basic personal freedoms, one single political party in power, concentration of powers, suppression of dissent, etc.
As people point out here, dictatorships and democracies all have their advantages and disadvantages, but as long as China doesn't have freedom of press and rule of law, the corruption will make the disadvantages far greater than the advantages of their regime."
What do you mean there's no rule of law in China? I can walk on the street at midnight and have no worries about somebody crazy enough to stab me with a knife for nothing...

That's very odd! I didn't write the comment above, and I don't know anything about the Allah-worship-religion. How could someone use my name to post something?? I'm very upset!! :(
On the whole, another clichéd post rationalising dictatorship, er, I mean "free society" by making superfluous comments about India; and with minimal grammatical errors. Well done. Plese give me your reference number so I can call the CCP Propaganda Dept. and recommend you for a promotion.
I don't think anyone suggested to 'replace' any 'democracy' with any form of 'dictatorship', Chinese or any other kind.
It is really all about choice; it seems that the Chinese people as a whole (after all we were talking about 'democracy' right? About majority choice, right?) have for now chosen this 'dictatorship', as on the whole, it looked after their interests well as of late (I hope we are not going to start talk about all the past misdeeds, such as the great leap forward, the famine, the cultural revolution, the slavery and segregation in the south, the subjugation of the Indian sub-continent or the Amritsar massacre, where thousands woman and children were shot dead – Sorry, I got carried away).
If anyone bothered to look back into Chinese history, they will realise that the Chinese people has never had as good as they do now. In China today, many older people still remember the 'old China' when one's main concern of the day was to have something, anything to eat (much as millions of people in India still do today). Today, China is facing a problem it never had before in history – obesity. Now may be you can understand WHY the communist party is doing so well in China today. You have to suffer the humiliation of being defeated by drug dealers, or a nation of drug dealers in a war, because the Chinese nation dared to resist the importation opium into China. Then you may then understand WHY the communist party is doing so well in China today. You have to suffered under the savage occupation by the Japanese 1931 - 1945, in a war with only one side is to blame, that is Japan (yes, as far as China is concerned it is still 'IS' not 'WAS') to understand WHY the communist party is doing so well in China today. Nationalism, or call it what you will (or please), but it works for China, and as far as China is concerned, that is all what matters.
If other countries wishes to live in a 'democracy' which bring then nothing but poverty, hunger, squalor, discrimination (what is it called? The cast system?! Hello! This IS the 21st Century!!!) illiteracy (how does a country with more than half of its population who are illiterate, and other half are of a 'lower' cast, exercise their rights in a 'democracy'?), that kind of democracy really is a black comedy of the darkest kind! However, it is their choice; no one will want or wish to change it.
Just a thought, many criticise China's wealth-gap, I know such wealth gap does not exist in the western world; everyone in the west are rich without exception. The talks of soup kitchens and homeless people in the US and the UK are just communist propaganda. Wealth gap do exist in China, but it not yet being perfected to the levels 'enjoyed' by majority of the people in India.
Anyone who wishes discuss 'Chinese dictatorship' should really go to China and see for themselves, as some of us have done. Go talk to the people in the streets, to find out first-hand how people fared under the 'dictatorship'. You will find that the information you have now may have long past the 'sell by date'. Be informed, then you can talk as much rubbish as you want about China, at least you will know yourself for a fact that you are lying. Which is just as bad as being ignorant about the facts.
"Today, the party is as strong at home as at any time since it seized power in 1949. "
I don't think so. Precisely the Internet is a very powerful way to communicate, there are herds of angry Chinese online, and tales of inequality/corruption/mischief by local officials often get their blood flow going. Corruption/no accountability are the biggest issues, looks like the party has gotten it all figured out, it just does not know how to deal with it (or its efforts have all failed).
You said :"A country which is democratic could also be corrupt and/or poor. Thailand, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines are democracies, but in the 2008 Corruption Perceptions ranking, they are at #80, #85, #126, and #141 respectively."
Indeed. But with the exception of Singapore, you will agree with me that the cleanest countries in the world are all democracies. Moreover, even if tiny Singapore (yellow) is not as democratic as other countries in the West, it is much more democratic than the PRC(purple) (for that, see again my link to Freedom House's website). Isn't an indication that democracy is good at rooting out corruption?
Like I said earlier, in some countries democracy can be dysfunctional. But obviously, it only means that the system in those countries needs to be fixed, not replaced by a dictatorship like the one in China.
A country which is democratic could also be corrupt and/or poor. Thailand, India, Indonesia, and the Philippines are democracies, but in the 2008 Corruption Perceptions ranking, they are at #80, #85, #126, and #141 respectively.
Singapore is #4, and China #72.
You said : "South Africa (2008 nominal per capita GDP US$5,693) is not the richest country in Africa. Libya (US$16,115), Gabon (US$9,987), Botswana (US$7,554), and Mauritius (US$6,872) are wealthier than SA."
Frankly, I often make the mistake of only including countries populated by black people when thinking about Africa. You right to include Mauritius and Libya in the lot.
However, I want to remind you certain facts :
1) Bostwana and Mauritius are democracies
Reference : http://www.freedomhouse.org/template.cfm?page=363&year=2008
2) Libya is one of the most corrupted country in the world. It's ranking is 2.6/10 according to Transparency International. Gabon is not much better (3.1/10). Bostwana (5.8/10), Mauritius (5.5/10) and South Africa (4.9/10) are all better.
Again :
As a final note, I just want to point out to you that the level of corruption in China (3.6/10) is about the same as in India (3.4/10), according to Transparency International. The US is rated 7.3/10 and Canada, 8.7/10 :) . You can see that on the site of Transparency International :
You are right that Singapore is very clean (9.2/10). However, I am wondering if the system in place in that tiny nation is directly applicable to the most populous country in the world ....

...Communist China is still handicapped by poor PR skills; they are still learning the game, not yet ready to take on the often sinister and devious western media. Too many un-informed official with appalling English, are still giving 'press conferences'. The result was often an own goal.
If the writer (banyan) were honest with himself, he would admit that the Chinese communist party has made progress and is moving towards a sort of 'democracy' at the pace it chooses. As the 'Gun boat diplomacy' no longer applicable as far as China is concerned, we will have to accept, there will not be any more glorious victories as the those 'won' in the two Opium Wars. Therefore, may be we should recognise that China is changing and encourage China to move in the right direction (not to dictate to China, and stop using stupid terms such as 'be a responsible stakeholder etc.We are not in any position to talk about being 'responsible'). I think this writer (Banyan) and publications such as the Economist have a duty to start report on China with some objectivity. By doing so is not to please or to appease China, but to serve the interests of the West, it would benefit us all.
May be Ivan Pavlov was wrong. Or, may be Pavlov (a more worthy Nobel prize winner) was right about dogs, but not humans, he did not 'thought' humans could be more stupid than dogs. However, some of us obviously are, as these humans NEVER learn from their mistakes. As they keep on listen to and believing these 'China experts' and their failed predictions.
For those of us who really knows and understands China (we do not necessary agree with everything China have done) have but one fear, the fear of being labelled as a 'China expert' or a 'China watcher'.
Pavlov's dog would turned their backs on these 'China expert' and 'China watcher' by now, as they have been proved wrong in every one of their 'predictions' in the past.
Banyan wrote: 'Who, 20 years ago, would have thought…?
For those who do know something about China, many of us did think that. As we did not let the 'euphoria' on the square to cloud our analysis and judgements. We knew, from the long history of China, on this occasion there would not be a mass 'revolt' by the ordinary China people, as the 'ordinary' Chinese people did not take part in that democracy movement headlined by the students on the square.
Any 'revolution' in China would need the support of the masses, especially from the rural population. For the student on the square that June twenty years ago, there were no support from either the rural areas, or from the general population (in 1989, population of Peking was 10 million, and China as a whole was 1.2 billion, how many of them were on that square?).
The reason there was no 'revolt' was that the communist party was doing quite well by Chinese standards, even back in 1989, as the living standards have been improved, especially for the farmers. True, people were unhappy with the corruption and other shortcomings, but overall, the people were matured enough to realise these shortcomings did not limit only to China (look at the state of politics and politicians in Britain). Therefore, the 'implosion' of the Chinese communist party was never on the cards.
Another reason that there was no 'revolt' has to do with what did happen on that square that night. The people in Peking knew what happened that night; they did not need any Western media to tell them about it. Especially as most of the western media were in their hotels and bars drinking when the troops went in.
Soon it will be 4 June. For those who were not on that square, they should try to listen to the people who were. One such person was one of the leaders on the square that night, who took part in the 'real' hunger strike. That person is HOU DEJIAN. He was born in Taiwan in 1956, became a singer-songwriter, and achieved fame with his 1979 song "Children of the Dragon." During the protest movement, Hou took part in the four-man hunger strike of June 2nd.
Hou was one of the leaders who did not receive 'assurances' from certain western governments for a 'safe passage' out of China in the event hat things should 'go bad'. For that reason alone, his statement is creditable to me.
By the time he gave this interview to the BBC, he was already back in Taiwan, in safety, so there is no reason for him to lie. In the interview, which was aired by the BBC, this was what he said:
"Some people said that two hundred died in the Square and others claimed that two thousand died. There were also stories of tanks running over students who were trying to leave. I have to say that I did not see any of that. I don't know where those people did. I myself was in the Square until six thirty in the morning.
I kept thinking, are we going to use lies to attack an enemy who lies? Aren't facts powerful enough? To tell lies against our enemy's lies only satisfies our need to vent our anger, but it's a dangerous thing to do. Maybe your lies will be exposed, and you'll be powerless to fight your enemy."
He repeated what he said in a number of other interviews with western media over the years.
Was Mr Hou lying? If so, why should he lie?
If he was not lying, and was telling us truth, of what he saw with his own eyes that morning in the square, then someone is lying; they can't be all telling us the truth.
Then there are the reams of declassified Tiananmem cables and papers from the US State Department. (too many to list, just google for them)
Therefore, what are to make of all this? Well, we must decide for ourselves.
China still has a long way to go, it still has many shortcomings, but by simply wishing it away, communist China is not going to disappear. By engaging it, everyone in the world would benefit, including the people living in China.
Communist China is still handicapped by poor PR skills; they are still learning the game, not yet ready to take on the often sinister and devious western media. Too many un-informed official with appalling English, are still giving 'press conferences'. The result was often an own goal.

South Africa (2008 nominal per capita GDP US$5,693) is not the richest country in Africa. Libya (US$16,115), Gabon (US$9,987), Botswana (US$7,554), and Mauritius (US$6,872) are wealthier than SA.
But why don't you also name the very poor countries which practise or attempt to practise western democracy? Like Bangladesh (US$506), India (US$1,016), and the Philippines (US$1,866)?
The economic collapse in Indonesia in 1998 was not caused by a transition to democracy. It was triggered by the financial crises (started by the devaluation of the Thai baht) in an economy plagued by corruption and croynism.
What is your basis for saying that the same would happen in China?
Chinacat, dictatorships are not only hereditary ones. In Burma they have clearly a military dictatorship, and the power didn't pass from one leader to his children. Communist dictatorships are not hereditary ones, but they have all the basic characteristics of any authoritarian regime: lack of basic personal freedoms, one single political party in power, concentration of powers, suppression of dissent, etc.
As people point out here, dictatorships and democracies all have their advantages and disadvantages, but as long as China doesn't have freedom of press and rule of law, the corruption will make the disadvantages far greater than the advantages of their regime.
"P.S. Chinacat, you should feel free to stop using the illogical language of English. Perhaps share your ideas and opinions on a Chinese forum? Or don't you feel an appropriate level of freedom to express yourself therein?"
It always amuses me immensely that someone in the West always thinks that I have no freedom of speech on a Chinese forum. You just can't imagine I've lots of things to criticize the corruptions in China therein. But the sad reality is that no government official would take me and my fellow students and our arguments seriously most of the time. They just think we are chatting and fun there... :(
By the way, I've stopped using English, the difficult and illogical language. Instead, I'm using the Chinese English, the easy and logical form of American English... Just want to annoy some of Brits immensely! lol
small fry,
At the end of the day it is how strong the government (tied closely with the economy) and skillful the politicians are in dealing with unrest. Foreign powers only can succeed in dividing a country when central government does not have resources to prevent separatism or chaos.
It could be argued that the Soviet Union collapsed largely because of the economy. The Soviet economy was stagnant beginning in the early 1980s, and collapsed in the early 1990s. The post Soviet economies experienced GDP drop of -50% between 1990-95, worse then the Great Depression in 1930s.
I doubt China will be in such a situation now or in the near future. The worst case scenario is something similar to what happened in Indonesia in 1998, a large shock that causes the growing economy to drop suddenly (-17% in one year) and thereafter quickly recover. The Indonesian military still had the resources to fight civil disturbance and separatist movements. Outside of East Timor, Indonesian still has the same borders it had in 1998.

"It always annoys me immensely whenever I hear this China's 'dictatorship'! The Dear Leader's North Korea is dictatorship, China is not !"
My friend, I am bit disappointed by this remark.
From the dictionary,
Dictatorship :
"A government organization or group in which absolute power is so concentrated"
Don't you think that his apply to the CCP and China?"
Well, to be honest, the world 'dictatorship' is the nastiest word for me to be used to describe a political system on earth. To me it always paints a picture in my mind in which a silly man like the Dear Leader rules a nation after his father did, and it's most likely the next ruler of North Korea is his son after his death. To sum it up, a dictatorship is the leadership of a family ownership.
China's political system is entirely different to that of North Korea. Mao didn't have his son to be the leader after his death. Deng didn't either. Actually neither any one of our leaders did that in the history of People's Republic of China. And it's very unlikely Hu's son or one of his family members would be my next president. The word 'dictatorship' just doesn't make sense in the reality of China! I'd argue that the lousy definition of the word in the dictionary is just for the purpose of using it to have a good bashing on any political system that's no something called 'democracy'. The biased point of view and propaganda from the cold-war West. ;)
P.S. I've corrected some of my typos in my previously post. Just don't want to annoy some of my English speaking friends immensely even thought it could be fun to do that. hehehe ;)
You've just nailed the secret of Japan's ruling LDP, and how it managed to stay in power for over 50 years with only an 11 month "interruption" in 1993-94...
In fact, LDP's grip on power is only 6 years shorter than that of the CCP, yet no one accuses Japan of being undemocratic...
"One last thing, about Religion: throughout history, more people have died fighting in the name of religion than over any other causes. Religion does more harm than good, period."
Karl Marx (as I am sure you're aware) wrote:
"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people"
Now I would argue that its not just religion, but also blind patriotism (something that I am sure a lot of us are guilty of at one point or another), idealism, racism, etc. So religion is one of many causes of conflict, but it would be unfair to single it out for its problems without even considering the others. And, in my opinion, no one said it better than the 19th century Prussian anarchist, Mikhail Bakunin (who incidentally was challenging Marx's leadership in the IWA, due to his opposition to communism):
"Until now all human history has been only a perpetual and bloody immolation of millions of poor human beings in honour of some pitiless abstraction -- God, country, power of state, national honour, historical rights, judicial rights, political liberty, public welfare."
Even so, "freedom of thought, conscience and religion" from Article 18 of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights which was drafted with representation from communist states (including the USSR).
I dispute your paternalistic attitude to government. To consider a democracy simply a system by which a vote is cast every four/five years is simplistic at best and ignorant at worst. Its about empowerment of the people, whether that means universal sufferage or political participation. Democracy brought us the many freedoms we take for granted today.
If people in a democracy are frustrated, they can use their vote to remove the incumbent from power, or occasionaly even call to have the incumbent impeached. In an autocracy, frustration = revolution, or state suppression of the revolution. Either way, blood is shed.
The constant reference of India as an example of a failure of democracy is something that needs to be addressed. There is some evidence to suggest that as early as 300BCE, India had strands of the modern democracy. The diversity of the people within India means that in the absense of democracy, the country would have fallen to pieces. The individual Indian has always demanded a certain degree of autonomy; the British found out the hard way, when they tried to change religious customs of the people. Also this repeated arguement about the rural and impoverished populace lacking the critical ability to cast votes from the pro-communism/authoritarian crowd, demonstrates a style of thinking whereby, the rich and elite consider themselves superior; and hence it further illustrates quite well why democracy with universal sufferage represents equality and freedom of ALL individuals better than its contemporaries.
Ofcourse democracy is not perfect, but then neither is real life.
"Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those others that have been tried."

On any given Friday, in multiplexes across India, a multitude of Hindi movies, regional films and Hollywood flicks jostle for screen space and audience eyeballs.
The average Indian family is often in a quandary over which film they should spend their valuable time and income watching. Which is why our filmmakers have to resort to ingenious tactics to lure audiences by generating as much publicity as possible.
Unfortunately, the word "publicity" has become synonymous with "controversy" in the movie jargon today. Many filmwallahs believe the only way to successfully publicise their movie is to create some hungama around it. This has given birth to a strange beast called the "film publicist", who is entrusted with the onerous task of engineering buzz around a movie.
In simpler times, the publicist would only have to leak stories to the media about an alleged affair between the stars of a particular film. This would be adequate to drive audiences into a frenzied state of excitement, and they would flock to the cinema halls to see the randy on-screen couple that had been ostensibly "making out" while making this movie.
But soon, the janta became jaded and was no longer titillated by such fables. Publicists, therefore, had to come up with more innovative ways of generating hype. They then sent out press releases that boasted of death-defying stunts performed by our action heroes who are supposed to have leapt out of planes, bungee jumped off mountain peaks and injured themselves while running atop speeding trains. In truth, the only stunt that most stars are capable of executing are publicity stunts.
Juicy anecdotes of catfights between heroines, tantalising tales of showdowns between rival heroes, bogus court cases and various other headline-hogging nuggets are regularly planted in the media.
Film stars were once luminous and inaccessible; they were larger-than-life demi-gods of the silver screen who we hero worshipped from afar and aspired to emulate. But the current crop of actors has lost their allure and mystique by blatantly pandering to the insatiable publicity machine.

Staff was very helpful.
Excellent price for a comfortable room.
breakfast is included but the artificial scrambled eggs and the toasters that don't work are disappointing.
Room was nice
Staff I had someone knock at my door when I went to door someone's fingute was covering the peep whole when I yelled who they ran and had a red shirt I called the front deck 4 times in 40 minutes and no answered when I tod staff in morning he was arrogant
The hot tub was massive!
The room was out dated,most of the light strip did not work, couch was falling apart, CIG burns on the sink, hot tub wouldn't fill up, the price was outrageous for what I paid for. Would have been better off staying elsewhere. Update the rooms
The lobby was very nice and the bar/restuarant area was great and even had live music. Room was mostly clean.
The bathroom was in rough shape. There was a crack in the flexible hose on the shower head which resulted in water being sprayed all over the wall and floor. Mentioned it to the staff on our way out, but they didn't seem very apologetic or helpful.
The room was very clean. Room service was prompt and food was good. I liked the 'to go' coffee cups in the room.
Food at the Cafe was not very good though service was great. The privacy lock in my room was broken.
There is not one thing I liked about this Inn.
Old furniture stacked up outside and across the parking lot. Net pictures lie. Room felt dirty. Lowlifes. A dump. DON'T GO THERE. Help didn't speak English. Communicated by hand signals. Towels, though washed, were old and stained. Stairwell was dirty.
The location to the Jersey Shore was the best feature. You have access to major highways and entertainment.
There was a swimming pool in disuse. It had not been used for some time. There was a pile of used furniture that needed to be thrown into a dumpster scattered outside.
The unprofessionalism
of staff.
Good Central NJ location at the junction of Route 18 and NJ Turnpike. 10 Minutes from Rutgers University in good traffic. Solid for business travel. Clean rooms.
No frills here. Hotel rooms need serious update and makeover. Old furniture with chips in them. Lamps with electrical shorts. No mini-bar; no bottled water in the room.
Clean room ,nice furniture, nice staff.
No coffee in room, bad coffee machine in hallway. Strong smell of curry in hallway and lobby, curry and cigarette smoke were entering room from hallway.
Clean nice neighborhood safe and good value .will stay here again
It was fine, we only stayed for 3 days
The room was 45 degrees when we checked in. The TV was so snowy it wasunwatchable and had a scratch on screen. Minimal water pressure in the shower.
Country setting.
Rooms are falling apart. Breakfast is not nearly as good as other residents Ins that I have been at. Location is not pretty.
Room had lots of useful stuff like a laptop holder for the bed, and USB outlets which allowed us to charge more stuff than we had brought chargers for
Didn't have any problems, no cons here
Modern and clean. Nice staff. Microwave and fridge in room. Pool was comfortable and not crowded when we went. Good breakfast.
Only one functional elevator because one was broken. The floor in the pool area could be cleaned better. There were bugs in the corner, and i saw a drop of blood.
It was very close to our destination, staff was helpful and we enjoyed our stay.
Not sure how the hotels recieve there stat rating, but base on my own personal experience I would rate this hotel a one star rating.... Although the room was clean there was obvious structural damage the door safety lock was broke., old TV and furniture.
Room 1: I liked literally nothing about it, it was gross, couldn't believe they tried to sell us that.Room 2: Still not clean, but bearable. Trash under bed, hadn't been cleaned. The jacuzzi worked great, plenty of hot water.Staff were understanding.
Room 1: Coffee maker had old coffee & mold in the pot, things scratched into the bed headboard, obviously hadn't been cleaned in weeks if at all, it's down river from a chemical plant, location is not ideal. 2nd room: Better, not good.
Clean and comfortable rooms. Right off the NJ turnpike. If I don't need wifi, I would stay here again.
No wifi in room but there is a business center. Breakfast was bad - stale food with poor taste. A TV guide would be helpful.
Nice comfortable stay
Free breakfast was terrible
The bed was comfortable, the staff was eager to be helpful, and the bar was a great time. I look forward to our next stay there!
The Staff was very helpful and friendly
Its a very old building. We had a leak in our room and had to change rooms at 1:30 am. Then in the next room we were in, the toilet clogged. I was just surprise how much the hotel cost per night when considering those factors.
Only thing we like was that there was available room for us at the time we needed when we traveled to Jersey.
We checked in early and
our room wasn't ready yet. When we returned 6hours later we found our room had not been cleaned.We were moved to another room. When we went to turn in to sleep, we realized that the bed sheets were damp and had a rip in it to. The bathroom fan did not work either. My wife and I were very disappointed. For the money we played it was not worth the headaches we went through. We come to Jersey often to visit and we will not stay at this hotel anymore.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Celebrating Psychedelic and Pop Art in Album CoversMusic // Friday, August 16, 2013
This morning we take a look at some of our favorite covers from "Groove Is In the Art," an archive celebrating "an era when psychadelic graphics and pop art met the mainstream on instrumental and classical album covers in an explosion of line art and color."
Music Video: Nabil Directs Just Blaze & Baauer's "Higher"Music // Thursday, August 15, 2013
The new video for Just Blaze & Baauer's latest track "Higher" is one of the most beautifully shot we have seen in a while. However, this is not surprising considering renowned director Nabil is the man behind it. The video tells the the epic story of a group of Kalaripayattu warriors (martial artists) and a spirited young kid in Kerala, India, who leads his fellow child vigilantes to fight a drunk bully.
Music Video: Youth Lagoon "Raspberry Cane" dir. by Stephen McNallyMusic // Wednesday, August 14, 2013

Enjoy the animated video directed by Stephen McNally.
Music Video: King Krule "Easy Easy"Music // Tuesday, August 13, 2013
It kind of blows our minds that someone this young, such as the 18-year old UK-based musician King Krule, can be so confident and this good. We have known about King Krule for a bit now, but his new video for "Easy Easy" which shows two young British lads going around looking up to no good, even getting involved in some tags and what not, is one of the best songs we have heard all year, and just an interesting video treatment to enjoy this morning. Directed by Focus Creeps.
Juxtapoz @ Outside Lands 2013, Day 1 in MusicMusic // Friday, August 09, 2013
Juxtapoz is on the ground at the annual Outside Lands Music and Art Festival held in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park each August (and that would be Aug 9-11 this year), and again for the third year, we have curated the art portion of the event. This year, we have Mike Shine, Dennis McNett, and Camille Rose Garcia created site-specific installations, but of course, there is a ton of music, and today we are showcasing some of the best music that we might be seeing today... let's gander...

Music Video: Fiona Apple "Hot Knife" directed by Paul Thomas AndersonMusic // Thursday, July 25, 2013
Paul Thomas Anderson is no stranger to making the simple look elegant and breathtaking, with most of his films being minimal on the special effects but maximist on detail and subtle actions. So when he took over the director role for Fiona Apple's "Hot Knife" video, he took the same approach and created a graceful and classic-feeling video treatment. Enjoy.
Music Video: Travis "Moving" by Wriggles & RobinsMusic // Tuesday, July 23, 2013
I spent half the morning yesterday trying to interact with Kanye West, and although I like that whole album and visual package that went with it, I coudn't really get to amped on being the slow down DJ. So instead, I found myself enjoying the new video by Wriggles & Robins for Travis' new single, "Moving". The directors noted, "All visuals captured in camera by back projecting the animated story into the breaths of the band. In the same way that you can see your breath on a cold day, we filmed at -1ºC to make the animations appear." Go, watch.
Music Video: Kanye West "Black Skinhead" by Nick KnightMusic // Monday, July 22, 2013
Kanye West, regardless of how you feel about him, is definitely in tune with proper art direction and collaborative efforts. For the video for this new track, "Black Skinhead," he enlisted director Nick Knight to create an interactive, dark, menacing visual treatment that allows the viewer to slow the track, slow the motion, all the while watching a CG-Kanye with massive necklace perform. Go have some fun...

So – the clocks have changed, and we've either gained an hour, lost an hour, or gone back in time. It's unclear which... Either way, it's time for #MasterofCocktails! This week's drink is a Palmetto.
Traditionally, this drink would be made with rum, vermouth and bitters, but as we're using Rumbullion! There's no need for the bitters in this one. I'm using the Navy-Strength, as that's what's behind the bar, but you could certainly use the regular stuff. No problem either way.

So – it's that time of year again.
Last week, we attended the Whisky Magazine World Whiskies Awards (and Icons of Whisky), and came away with a slew of trophies and awards to show for another year's hard work.
First things first – we're absolutely delighted to announce that we've retained our crown as 'World's Best Online Whisky Retailer' for the third year on the trot. An absolutely fabulous achievement which we're immensely proud of. We've said this before (and will keep on shouting it from the rooftops) but our site remains the only purpose-built online whisky shop coded from the ground up. It took an extraordinary amount of effort to build something that wasn't based on a standard e-commerce platform, and we're all hugely proud of the software stack we've built.

This week we're re-visiting a recipe for the first time on #MasterofCocktails – The Martinez.
The reason we're doing this is that the first recipe published way back in October was the distinctly modern version. Heavy on the gin, and light on Vermouth. Today we're going back to the old-school, with a 1:1 Gin:Vermouth recipe.

This week we're making a nice potent, wintry drink for #MasterofCocktails to accompany all the unseasonably warm weather we've been enjoying. D'oh!
Don't worry about that though, we're making a Boulevardier. You'll notice, ingredients-wise, that it's basically a Negroni made with whiskey instead of gin. It appeared in Harry McElhone's Barflies and Cocktails right back in 1927 after the New Yorker set up his bar in Paris and it's just an absolutely superb drink.

This week's #MasterofCocktails is an absolute doosie. We're making a Mai Tai. Probably one of the most abused and under-appreciated drinks in the world.
Now, if you've ever ordered one of these in a bar, you'll either have had a delicious variant on a Daiquiri, or a juice-laden mess that bears as much resemblance to a proper cocktail as a bottle of Hooch and an apple schnapps chaser.
Can you guess which version we're going to be making?

Well. This is sort of a big deal, isn't it?
I can probably count on the fingers of one hand the number of whiskies ever released that are over 60 years of age, and it's absolutely unthinkable these days that a 60yo distillery release would ever see the light of day at anything less than a five-figure price tag. Yet here we are bringing this astonishing piece of liquid history to you for a three-figure sum*.
Well rather than re-iterate, I'll refer you to my explanation of the economics behind this, here: http://www.masterofmalt.com/Blog/post/Brand-New-30-40-and-50-Year-Old-Whisky.aspx. Do please read it, as every bit of it still rings true, and it's the reason behind our ability to continue to deliver exceptional, unbelievably well-aged whiskies at price-points an order of magnitude less than some other folk.

It's #MasterofCocktails time again folks! This week we're putting together a supremely refreshing drink – one which you absolutely must try if you haven't already.
A long drink made with tequila and grapefruit, god only knows why this isn't more widely available to be honest. This week we'll be making a Paloma. It's a Mexican number that translates as the 'dove', all you really need to know though is that you want one. They're yummy.

Another week's been and gone, which means it must be time for another #MasterofCocktails! This week we're making a Penicillin cocktail, created at Milk and Honey NYC by Sam Ross. Nice work Sam.
This is a Whisky sour, but is unusual, being made with a good slug of Peated Malt. Not a traditional hit in cocktails.
In this context, the peat works well with the traditional ginger, honey and lemon mix to provide further mental cues that the drink's doing you good. Delicious!

Right then chaps – we're going to be making something that's very much en-vogue at the moment for this week's #MasterofCocktails: an Aviation.
Essentially, this cocktail is just a gin-sour with a dab of Violet Liqueur in it, but the sum of the parts is so much more than this. Also, as it's probably one of the least sweet sours you'll come across, it can still legitimately be called an aperitif.

For this week's #MasterofCocktails we're having a go at a modern classic. An Espresso Martini. Now before we begin, we're going to start by getting a few silly preconceptions out of the way...
The biggest one is probably the ingredients. If anyone says that you need a coffee liqueur to make an espresso martini, chances are they're trying to sell you some coffee liqueur. Or have been paid by a Coffee Liqueur Brand.
The thing about coffee liqueur is that it's made of coffee, and alcohol. We're using incredibly fresh coffee for this, which means you're going to get more than enough coffee punch, and won't have to sacrifice any flavour (as larger, more complex flavour molecules tend to degrade over time). We're also using dry ice today. As detailed last week, you can get this by ordering from online stores that ship frozen.

What's Brewin'? Arcadia IPA a diamond in the rough
By Tyler Estabrook
Staff Writer
As a wheat beer and stout nerd, I have only begun to realize there are other worthy beer styles I have neglected to cover in my column. One of these is the India Pale Ale (IPA).
What sets IPAs apart from regular pale ales, first and foremost, is the hop bitterness, an artifact of times when ale had to survive long sea voyages to keep the thirst of Her Majesty's troops quenched. These days, IPAs tend to be especially well hopped, and in some cases that's all there really is to taste. However, this is mostly a tendency of the newer American versions, since the traditional British ones are more nuanced. Still, the hallmark of a good IPA is a diverse spread of flavors to counterbalance the bitter hops. Some American IPAs are simply too tart and bitter to be enjoyable.
Arcadia Brewing Company of Battle Creek, Mich., makes a more English-inspired IPA with low bitterness, medium body and a well-rounded flavor.
After pouring into a glass, this IPA becomes a beautiful, hazy-orange-hued brew with a thick, vibrant head. There are pronounced nutty and woody flavors, with a pinch of citrus, alongside the hops, and a shockingly "wet" (as opposed to dry) aftertaste for an IPA.
This brew is built on a base of traditional English IPAs, but with a modern reinterpretation. And while the style is English, the hops are American, and fortunately the brewers didn't load down this IPA with them. My verdict is Arcadia IPA is a rich and palatable version of the style, on par with Dundee IPA in terms of high drinkablility, although the latter is an American-style IPA.
This makes me eager to try the rest of Arcadia's line, because American interpretations of English ales usually turn out to be quite tasty.

)(1) An organizational unit, or container, used to organize folders and files into a hierarchical structure. Directories contain bookkeeping information about files that are, figuratively speaking, beneath them in the hierarchy. You can think of a directory as a file cabinet that contains folders that contain files. Many graphical user interfaces use the term folder instead of directory.
Computer manuals often describe directories and file structures in terms of an inverted tree. The files and directories at any level are contained in the directory above them. To access a file, you may need to specify the names of all the directories above it. You do this by specifying a path.
The topmost directory in any file is called the root directory. A directory that is below another directory is called a subdirectory. A directory above a subdirectory is called the parent directory. Under DOS and Windows, the root directory is a back slash (\).
To read information from, or write information into, a directory, you must use an operating system command. You cannot directly edit directory files. For example, the DIR command in DOSreads a directory file and displays its contents.

Miami officials flew to Boston on Monday to meet with Tommy Amaker about the school's men's basketball coaching vacancy, according to the Miami Herald.
The paper reported that Amaker, now the coach at Harvard, "appears" to be Miami's top target.
An offer, if it comes, would be roughly $1.1 million for five years.
Amaker, 45, has made one NCAA tournament in 14 seasons as a head coach at Seton Hall, Michigan and Harvard. Other coaches on Miami's list of potential candidates, according to the Miami Herald, are Mike Davis (UAB), Rob Jeter (Wisconsin-Milwaukee), Donnie Jones (UCF), Tony Barbee (Auburn) and Billy Kennedy (Murray State). Sources have told CBSSports.com that Frank Martin (Kansas State) would be willing to take the job if Miami committed additional resources to its basketball program, but Miami officials have not pursued the Miami native even though most believe he's the only candidate with the ability to make the Hurricanes nationally relevant immediately.

Report: Miami targeting Amaker
I like Tommy Amaker as an up-and-coming coach with the potential to do great things-- yeah, I know he's been around awhile, but he's never really taken root anywhere. But something just feels wrong about him considering Miami and them considering him.
The only success he had as Seton Hall was with a team mostly inherited from the previous regime and he never took that group of carryovers plus his recruits to the next level. When he jumped in at Michigan, I thought the program was too big for his desire for a low-profile and, although he did well Big Blue never jumped the ranks of a mediocre Big Ten at the time. Harvard seems like the perfect fit for his personal style. He's been building something for the last four years and seems on the verge of breaking through with the most recent batch of recruits. Let's face it-- if you can get ranked in the top 25 of recruiting classes and you're at Harvard, you've got something going on that doesn't need to be messed with. I don't see Miami as any better than Harvard in the long haul for Amaker. It might be for somebody like Frank Martin who could take them into the next stratosphere, but not Amaker.
Clearly, Miami doesn't want to invest in its athletics department beyond the football program. So what is in it for Amaker? Miami provides a higher profile that he's not interested in. They're not willing to shell out much more money than Harvard over the long haul. He'd have to do some rebuilding as Frank Haith didn't exactly leave the cupboard dripping with talent. So I ask again, what's in it for Amaker?

Amaker could't hack it @ Seton Hall, nor Michigan. He's best suited where he is. Miami will be a mediocre program again if he's hired.

I'm a Hall guy...and yes bitter because he broke his word to our school and players.......but he got nothing done at Michigan and didn't win the IVY....so why would anyone give him this job??? Just explain this to me....this is an ACC job....how about a couple ivy titles....not almost titles before he gets another huge payday.....we'll see...but I don't get it

Stupid Stupid Stupid
Frank Haith was scheduled to make $3 million over the next 2 years at UM and they can't pay Frank Martin the $1.1 million he makes now even though he's virtually begging UM to make him an offer? Ridiculous.
Donna Shalala and the Board of Trustees ought to make a statement to the University of Miami informing them that they just aren't willing to make any sort of financial commitment to the basketball program and would rather save money to keep the status quo than spend money to make an effort to win because that's exactly what this is.
Instead we're going after Tommy Amaker who never had a winning record in Big Ten conference play and never lost less than 11 games in 6 years at Michigan. Oh but he won an NIT championship with Michigan and went to the Sweet 16 over a decade ago.
In 14 years as a Head Coach the man has 1 more win the NCAA tournament than Frank Haith does, and has been to the Big Dance just as many times, once. What an upgrade this will be.

Report: Miami targeting Amaker
This would be a bad move for Amaker. He's in a very good situation at Harvard, can build that program into a contender, and can emerge (and remain) as the powerhouse in that conference. That means regular NCAA tournament bids and increased exposure. If he wanted to bolt later, fine.....but right now, Miami just isn't a place that I would choose if I were a coach looking for a stable, well-supported program. And it's a joint decision (with his wife). She's at one of the top institutions to practice her craft; I doubt she'd look forward to leaving Harvard for South Beach......unless she hates cold weather.

In an offseason that's had a number of bad coaching hires, if Miami actually went through with hiring Tommy Amaker, this would rank up there (or down there, as the case may be).

The bulb seems ok and is still growing roots. I have scraped of all of the soft tissue. Will it be able to produce another leaf? How should it be treated?

Marshall Henderson: Tweet 'research'
Former Ole Miss basketball star Marshall Henderson said Monday that his derogatory tweet about linebacker Michael Sam was meant as a project to gather information for a friend who is deciding whether to tell family and friends about his sexual orientation.
"My stance on gay athletes is irrelevant," Henderson told ESPN by phone. "The whole reason we chose to do this is because my friend is gay. If it was wrong for me to do it, so be it."
Henderson tweeted the following on Monday morning, two days after Sam was taken by the St. Louis Rams in the seventh and final round of the NFL draft:
"Boycotting sportscenter til this michael sam nasty [expletive, expletive] is off .... My brothers are 7 and 11 and saw that!!! #SICKENING"
An hour later, Henderson followed with tweets explaining his rationale for the initial comment.
One of my best friends, WHO IS GAY, is about to graduate in psychology, asked me to say these things so he can have responses ... TBC
- marshall henderson (@NativeFlash22) May 12, 2014
The point of his study was to see how people react when others say things or act a certain way against another group of people ... TBC
- marshall henderson (@NativeFlash22) May 12, 2014
Henderson told ESPN that his friend, who does not attend Ole Miss, asked him to tweet out something on Sam a couple of weeks ago, but he declined at the time.
However, after watching Sam get drafted and seeing his younger brothers' reaction to the display of affection between Sam and his boyfriend on television, Henderson decided to post the comment on Twitter.
After a flurry of backlash, Henderson sent another tweet less than an hour later saying "Im sorry, but I DO NOT AGREE WHATSOEVER that should be shown to where innocent eyes can see!!!"
"I saw their reactions and thought we've got something brewing here," Henderson said. "I knew I was sticking my neck out there doing it, but I wanted to see how people reacted."
"What better way to get research and feedback than to do it like I did," Henderson added. "Everything I did is a psychologist and educator's dream."
- marshall henderson (@NativeFlash22) May 12, 2014
Henderson said he plans to meet with his friend Tuesday in the Dallas area, where Henderson lives.
"He's scared," Henderson said. "He hasn't come out of the closet. His family doesn't know."
"The point of this was to see the reaction," he added, "and if he could feel more comfortable in his coming-out process."
The enigmatic Henderson, who averaged 19 points per game last season for the Rebels, became known for his taunting and other antics over the past two seasons at Ole Miss. He led the Rebels to the NCAA tournament in 2013 -- where he was reprimanded by the NCAA after an outburst -- and missed three games this season due to a drug-related suspension.
Ole Miss athletic director Ross Bjork tried to distance the university from Henderson's comments on Twitter:
I'm extremely disappointed & we do not condone the statements made by our former bball player. We believe in respect & dignity for all......
- Ross Bjork (@RossBjorkAD) May 12, 2014
We use significant resources to educate our student-athletes about respect & dignity for all people & unfortunately not everyone gets it....
- Ross Bjork (@RossBjorkAD) May 12, 2014
Henderson told ESPN he has signed with an agent and is hoping to play professionally. He is not one of the 60-plus players invited to this week's NBA draft combine, and he is not expected to be selected in the draft on June 26.
He said he is moving to Philadelphia soon, where his agent is based, and plans to participate in The Basketball Tournament, an event that begins June 6 in which the winning team will claim $500,000. Henderson said he is on a team with former NBA players Hakim Warrick and Reggie Williams.
