To All TAM/CSCA Clients: With the connotation signifying not only a pleasantry, we launch this report with the words; "Happy New Year! It is time for Joy and Celebration. " To a large extent this sentiment is a continuation of a term we penned in last quarter's missive, "The beginning of the End." Here we highlighted our perspective standpoint and elaborated on the following topics and potential outcomes… High volatility in equities potentially contributing to eventual stability The Fed's symposium's ambition Interest rate manipulation benefiting the yield curve (borrowing stimulation) Merger & Acquisition activity November's mid-term election – potential gridlock and effect Institutional Investor – not consumer- confidence This report, by expanding on the prior, will not only enhance the optimistic probabilities; but provide supporting data (Evidence:) to reinforce the theory of a much-needed sustainable bullish stance – the first in many years. Frustration + Exodus = Productivity Without a doubt 2010 was as frustrating for investors as a "Pyromaniac in a Petrified Forest." Interestingly enough, notwithstanding its decent January beginning, the sharp 17% downtrodden and eight additional months of non-return based extreme volatility will be documented in the proverbial ledger as being "Productive;" frustrating nevertheless, but productive. Pointing to the ole' adage, "Frustrating the majority is the Markets' primary goal." Evidence: One only needs to look at the statistics to comprehend the level of frustration. 2010 was the second greatest monetary exodus out of equity mutual funds in 30-years; second only to 2008's financial implosion period. www.TuttleAssetManagement.com Page 2 For a contrarian, which TAM is, this becomes good news as true contrarians tend to believe the majority of individual investors make emotional, not rational, decisions and as a whole and tend to continually be wrong at extremes (crowd behavior). As the post-election results became a reality and the year embarked on its wind up, the lack of investor confidence began to abate. Whether it was gridlock (Republican's taking the house and nearly the Senate) or President Obama moving toward the center; the results were certainly "buy-inspiring" for investors and should continue to be a bullish catalyst for 2011. Fiscal & Monetary Policy: To placate the looming "Double-Dip" potential even further, Fiscal & Monetary Policy also began to take hold. "Just keep pumping the Primer," yelled a man wearing a tuxedo and holding an empty bucket under a dry spigot. Fiscal: Quantitative Easing Take Two (QE2) – "ACTION!" So here's the 64 Thousand Dollar Question; "Is Government spending the only thing keeping the economy afloat and is the 'Primer' doing what it's intended to do?" First things first; The Government's Plan – keep things in motion until the engine can self-propel; after which, pay the primer fuel back with a full-running, self-sustaining engine. Theory sound? Maybe, if the engine is not seized from the get-go. So far, so good – except for the simple fact no one is paying any attention to the amount of the 'primer fuel' being pushed into the system – 3 Trillion to be exact. (2.3T with round 1 and 700B for round 2) Look at it this way… this equates to government spending in excess of… $8.2B/Day; $341M/Hour; $575K/Second. That's one hell of a Primer. Add this to the "Monetary" policy forces in place – adjusting the Fed Fund Rates and buying treasuries to manipulate the interest rates – we've got another feather (or whole bird) in our Equity Bull Cap. These monetary moves will undoubtedly create other consequences – discussed in additional past missives – but our objective in this report is one of "Market Action" not long-term opinions on "Right or Wrong". Evidence: Merger Mania was the first sign of true economic recovery. Companies (42% of investment-grade companies to be precise) have been aggressively taking advantage of the lowest borrowing cost on record to sell debt in order to finance acquisitions and their own share repurchases (manufacture earnings). www.TuttleAssetManagement.com Page 3 The Business Cycle & Productivity: To comprehend our current location within the Business Cycle we have to look at the typical chronological order of corporate spending while exiting a recession. 1. Share Repurchase 2. Acquisitions 3. Inventory Rebuild 4. Capital Expenditure Funding Productivity Increases Modernization, typically through Technology Having already discussed #1 & #2, Corporate America continues to remain flush with 1.2T of capital looking for a home. That being said, #1 & #2 do almost nothing for the progression along the Business Cycle Path, other than tighten corporate balance sheets. The rubber truly meets the road in a business cycle with the onset of spending #3 & #4 (Inventory Rebuild & CAPEX – Capital Expenditure). The onset of a Business Cycle Upturn 1. Inventory Rebuild (Spending #3) Leading expansion 2. Capital Investment Cycle (CAPEX) (Spending #4) Industry consumption to increase productivity (technology) 3. Employment 4. Consumer consumption Inventory Rebuild (2010): Because of the nature of a recession this can be very difficult to evaluate in the lifeline of a business cycle, yet still possible. When first entering the business (20 some years ago) I read an excerpt from Peter Lynch on the Business Cycle. He portrayed to know the "Greatest Single Economic Forecaster" over the last 100-years. He called it the "ultimate" industrial material and claimed its price has led the global macro-economic expansions and contractions for over 100-years. It's… Used in industrial, electrical, transportation, coinage, preservative, restoration, technology The oldest metal used by mankind Atomic # is 39 Consumed through the human body via (Vegetables, legumes, nuts, grains, fruits, drinking water and even chocolate) o Sometimes referred to as the Fountain of Youth" element Evidence: Copper! From October to December With its vast array of uses (specifically in the transportation & building copper prices have increased industries) the demand (price) increases as activity picks up (inventory nearly 30% rebuild). Since stumbling upon this excerpt as a greenhorn, I've never ($3.50/lbs to $4.50/lbs) steered away from the theory. www.TuttleAssetManagement.com Page 4 CAPEX (Productivity - 2011): CAPEX, in my humble opinion, is the next and most important leg of "The End of the End." This is where, if the Fed's theory of "Priming the Pump" is correct, the engine should kick on. Corporate spending on capital (specifically technology) should, in theory, jumpstart the broader economy. It's been nearly 12-years since there's been a substantial technology boom and all indications point toward productivity increases stemming from technology. Evidence: December's Business Roundtable's 4th Quarter CEO Economic Outlook Survey found… 80% of CEOs expect sales to increase within the next 6-months 60% of CEOs plan to increase capital expenditures (Productivity/Technology) 45% of CEOs see staff additions in the following 2 quarters (questionable – less than 50% of CEO's) NDX Technically: It is not only from a fundamental standpoint which technology investing seems most likely; it's also from a technical standpoint, assuming further progression into 2011. The NDX, at the close of 2010, was pushing against the 2007 high and about to embark on a 10- year (since 2001) technical breakout. If this occurs, the probability lies with 3,000 being the next stop for this tech laden index (35% higher). Double Dip Probability: All the empirical evidence not only points to a "Double Dip" probability waning, but having actual organic expansion possibilities. Nevertheless, Business Cycle III & IV (employment & consumer spending) are still only a hope & craving for a starving economy. Employment could very well take some time. Contrary Evidence: 2.4 Million Manufacturing Jobs have been lost (not including construction) The first time in history governmental jobs (Fed & State) have shrunk More than 250K in 2010 alone Unemployment still remaining stubbornly close to 10% www.TuttleAssetManagement.com Page 5 So we ask… "Is a jobless recovery possible and if so, for how long?" and "Will the policy measures finally lead to sustainable job growth, increase the tax base and be able to pay off the "Primer Fuel?" The answer can only draw clearer as you hear the whispered intro to the 1960's Twilight Zone… "…traveling through another dimension, of not only sight and sound, but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination…" Otherwise stated… our "Weight of Evidence," both Fundamental & Technical, point to a Happy New Year, while additional catalysts remain essential to propel a 30% + Year. For now, considering the Equity Markets tend to consistently look 9 – 12 months ahead, the most plausible argument is; The Beginning of a New Cycle. Barring a geopolitical event, and if the politicians stay out of the way and don't make a policy mistake, the probability of stocks being higher and having a stronger dollar is highly likely. As we enter the New Year we still warrant modest caution as to not step into the same 2010 beginning puddle. With advisor sentiment approaching extremes, akin to October 2007, and everyone clamoring "All Clear" we do not want to be in the barrage of an initial (January Exuberance) pullback. Our Continued Resolve: With the onset of a New Year we felt it apropos to recap our management philosophy, discipline & methodology. This stems from a statement from the man who 'Created Management,' Peter Drucker. "There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all." We summarize; We will not… Mobilize the good news to make it look pretty and impartially extrapolate Sell positions doing well for no other reason than having a profit (cut gains short) Hold a stock persistently going against the portfolio (limit losses) Be swayed by news, rumors, tips or flash movements Put all our eggs in one basket (over concentration) Project market value based on fundamentals alone Portray we are smarter than everyone else Abandon our method and discipline Act on emotions Dissuade from our management mantra of the balance of risk and the enhancement of wealth o If you take care of the downside, the upside will eventually take care of itself "There are only two lessons to financial success. Lesson number one; Don't lose money. Lesson number two; don't forget lesson number one." – Warren Buffet www.TuttleAssetManagement.com Page 6 As always, we at Tuttle Asset Management, LLC (TAM) & Church Street Capital Advisors, LLC (CSCA) are grateful for the opportunity to serve as your portfolio manager.

It's important for parents to do everything they can to help their children grow up strong and healthy. Problems that start to appear when a person is a child will grow into much larger problems once they are adults. The issue of childhood obesity is so critical in the United States because children who are obese have an incredibly difficult time losing weight when they turn into adults. Their bodies developed in such a way that their metabolism is very low and calories stick to their frame. The trends and habits that parents help create in their children will amplify when they become adults.
A great example to highlight this point is oral health. If, as children, people are allowed to consume large amounts of candy and carbonated sodas, then their teeth are going to be weakened for the rest of their life. They will be more prone to have cavities throughout their adulthood, because their teeth will be more susceptible. Some of this is due to genes but a great deal of it is due to the fact that they were allowed to consume so much sugar at a young age.
Staying on the point of oral health, straightening crooked teeth is incredibly important for children. The longer a child who is in need of braces goes without getting them, the more their teeth will shift and the more difficult it will become to get them straightened. The more crooked a person's teeth get the more problems it poses for their health. Crooked teeth can prevent wisdom teeth from growing in, or can cause them to grow crooked, an event that creates a whole other set of problems. Also, crooked teeth can cause pain in the mouth or cause teeth to become more worn down over time.
For all of the reasons highlighted above, it is important for children to get the help they need from an orthodontist as early as possible. In all truthfulness, many children would turn into adults with major dental problems were it not for orthodontics. The field of orthodontics is full of highly trained professionals who have dedicated their entire careers to helping people resolve alignment issues in their mouths. They can help people to straighten their teeth, they can fix over bite issues, and they can resolve under bite issues. These practices help to fix problems with the teeth in children's mouths so that when they grow up they don't have to worry about them. As with the example of childhood obesity, if issues with tooth alignment go unchecked for too long a period of time they will turn into much larger problems. Not only will these problems be uncomfortable, but they will also cost people a large amount of money.
Knowing that it is important for your children to see an orthodontist is only half of the process. The next is finding an excellent orthodontist in your area. If you happen to live in Virginia, iBracesVIP, an Invisalign specialist, is a great option. They are well known throughout the region for being the best orthodontist in the state.

Hello, thanks for looking!
I have been looking around CPAN for a module that might save me from starting from scratch. So far I haven't found what I'm looking for hopefully due to a failure to use the proper terminology or focusing on too narrow of a use case.
I have some data in Redis that I'd like to be able to run SQL-style queries on. I'm not looking to invent a SQL wrapper for Redis but I do think it would be useful to have an ability to test values against ad hoc conditionals.
I'd like to be able to pass a subroutine a conditional test and a value to test against it. For example the conditional could be a hash ref like this (say we're testing a zip code):
my $conditional_test = {
'condition1' => {
'value' => '10022'
'condition2' => {
'value' => '96813'
'condition3' => {
'value' => '55401'
#do something
Possible conditions could be (and, or, not...)
Ideally we could nest these conditions as well which is why I'm looking for a parser that's already built. I did find a grammar parser that looked like it worked for natural language as well as some conditional parsers specific to specialized data (XML, lists) but nothing generalized.
Has anyone come across this particular problem (not Redis queries but checking data against ad hoc value tests) before and found a good solution? It seems like a use case that might warrant a module.
Thanks again for looking.
Hello everyone,
I seek your wisdom on this question:
Is there a way to ask Perl whether an object supports stringification,
including via "magic autogeneration"?
The only way I've found so far was by trying to eval the stringification,
like in the code below.
The specific case here is the "ICanStringify" class,
where overload::Method($s,'""') is false, but the object still stringifies.
Did I miss some function somewhere that can tell me whether that class will stringify?
use strict;
use warnings;
{ package OnlyAString;
use overload fallback=>0, '""'=>sub { ${shift()} }
{ package ICanStringify;
use overload fallback=>undef, '0+'=>sub { ${shift()} }
{ package OnlyANumber;
use overload fallback=>0, '0+'=>sub { ${shift()} }
bless my $s1=\do {my $x=111}, 'OnlyAString';
bless my $s2=\do {my $x=222}, 'ICanStringify';
bless my $s3=\do {my $x=333}, 'OnlyANumber';
use overload ();
sub can_str {
my $s = shift;
print "Object ", overload::StrVal($s), ":\n";
print " \"\" ", overload::Method($s,'""')
?"IS":"is NOT", " overloaded\n";
my $e = eval { "$s" };
print " stringification ", defined($e)
?"WORKED: $e\n":"DIDN'T work: $@\n";
Object OnlyAString=SCALAR(0x3684370):
"" IS overloaded
stringification WORKED: 111
Object ICanStringify=SCALAR(0x3664210):
"" is NOT overloaded
stringification WORKED: 222
Object OnlyANumber=SCALAR(0x3679682):
"" is NOT overloaded
stringification DIDN'T work: Operation """": no method found, argu
+ment in overloaded package OnlyANumber at test.pl line 28.
The background is that I have a function that accepts only strings.
Because passing a reference was a mistake I made a few times, I started
warning if any references were passed to it, including objects.
But then I realized that some objects stringify and that's useful,
and that some objects die when you try to stringify them.
I'd like to loosen the restrictions, and still warn on references
and objects that don't stringify, but not on objects that stringify.
Any wisdom on this topic would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, I am using XML::CSV to parse a very large (500MB) CSV file and convert it to XML. I keep getting an "out of memory" error during the parse.
Is there a way to "purge" data to free up memory during this process, like you can with XML::Twig? (Though I don't see anything about handlers in the doc....)
my $csv_obj = XML::CSV->new(
error_out => 1
$csv_obj->{column_headings} = \@heads;
my $status = $csv_obj->parse_doc($file);
Hey Monks,
Just starting off in perl (and programming in general) and need to do an exercise but a bit confused on the process.
Trying to create a script that will ask the user to enter a number between 1 and 5 and for it to print a colour represented e.g. if they enter 1, Blue comes up or 3, red gets printed. I've done a bit of research and I know I need to create an array (@) but not too clear on how to do so.
After that I need to assign an emotion to the colour e.g. blue = calm, red = angry. I'd also like to know how to incorporate modulus into this so on even/odd number inputs I can print it out (think ill need an if/else statement for this?)
At the end I'd like it to look like this:
Please enter a number between 1 and 5:
Blue. Even. Calm
So far I've got the code below and have no idea how to finish or even progress, any ideas?
print "Please enter a number between 1 and 5 (inclusive) below:";
my $number = <STDIN>;
my @colours = ("red", "green", "blue", "purple", "black");
my %table = (
1 => "angry"
2 => "sick"
3 => "calm"
4 => "worried"
5 => "sad"
Hi there,
as Module::Build will vanish out of the perl core in some versions, I'd like to know how I can do Module::Build�s adding of new file types.
Say I have .dat files that are located in /dat in my modules path.
With Module::Build I can add a file type by adding my files within the definition ( dat_files => {'some/dir/Bar.dat' => 'lib/Foo/Bar.dat'},), then make that known to the builder:
Is there anything similar in ExtUtils::MakeMaker?
I searched for that feature but is was not really obvious to me ...
Perl's vec and bitwise string operators are very useful and powerful for manipulating (large) bitstrings; but they are limited in several ways.
Namely, there are no left & right shift operators for them; and the bitwise string operators operate with 8-bit boundaries.
One common operation needed for programming with bitstrings is the ability to search one bitstring for another bitstring, looking for matches that occur even at
non-byte or integer-sized alignments.
So graphically, using 8-bit units instead of 64 for brevity, the problem is this:
Find (the first occurance of):
needle = x1001010 10101001 10100xxx (x represents bits we are not
+ interested in)
haystk = xxxxx001 10001101 01110010 10101010 01101001 01100011 100
+11001 00010001 .....
The specification of needle requires three values:
Similarly, the haystack requires 3 values:
U64 bsSearch( U64 *hay, U8 oHay, U64 lHay, U64 *ndl, U8 oNdl, U64
+lNdl ) {
In an ideal world (Perl) the function would return the unit number(or address), and the offset into that unit, where the match is found (or 0).
As C doesn't permit multiple return values, I've opted for a single 64-bit value indicating the offset from the start of the first unit of the haystack (or -1?).
haystk = xxxxx001 10001101 01110010 10101010 01101001 01100011 100
+11001 00010001 .....
needle = x10010 10101010 0110100x xx (note the
+ alignment change!)
return = 01234567 89012345 6789 = 19th bit
= unit 2/ bit 3
There are 128-bit shift instructions available on Intel/AMD 64-bit processors (and probably most others):
REX.W + 0F A5 SHLD r/m64, r64, CL B Valid N.E. Shift
+ r/m64 to left CL places while shifting bits from r64 in from the rig
REX.W + 0F AD SHRD r/m64, r64, CL B Valid N.E. Shift
+ r/m64 to right CL places while shifting bits from r64 in from the le
which are available on the MS compiler as intrinsics:
unsigned __int64 __shiftleft128( unsigned __int64 LowPart, unsigne
+d __int64 HighPart, unsigned char Shift );
unsigned __int64 __shiftright128( unsigned __int64 LowPart, unsign
+ed __int64 HighPart, unsigned char Shift );
and probably in gcc (though I couldn't locate the names).
Using these, you can load two registers with two units of one of the bitstrings and when shifting the first register, bits from the second are shifted in.
Thus to process through the bitstrings 1 bit at a time, you use loops something like:
for( i = 0; i < ( lHay % 64 )+1; ++i ) {
r1 = *( hay + i ); r2 = *( hay + i + 1 );
for( b1 = 0; b1 < 64; ++b1 ){
__shiftleft128( r2, r1, 1 );
for( j = 0; j < ( lNdl % 64 )+1; ++j ) {
r3 = *( ndl + j ); r4 = *( ndl +j + 1 );
for( b2 = 0; b2 < 64; ++b2 ) {
__shiftleft128( r4, r3, 1 );
Except that:
At which point we not only need to reset the needle (inner pair?) loop;
we also need to reset the hay loop by the distance we successfully advanced before the failure, then advance one bit.
In answer to the traditional question: You've just pretty much read it!
The function definition and a few local variables:
U64 bsSearch( U64 *hay, U8 oHay, U64 lHay, U64 *ndl, U8 oNdl, U64
+lNdl ) {
register U64 r1, r2, r3, r4;
U64 i, j, rv;
U8 b1, b2;
return rv;
And the two separate loops above, and little else, despite many hours of though and scribbling on post-its.
I suspect that the right approach might include another subroutine that compares the needle to the haystack at a given, fixed offset;
but I'm stuck for how to code that such that it doesn't repeatedly shift one or both by an increasing number of bits each time it is called?
I also thought that it might make sense to copy the needle to an aligned chunk of memory, to eliminate its offset from the problem;
but it could be a very large piece of memory, which would be expensive.
Update:I suspect one or even two gotos may be needed; though I'd avoid them if I can.
Cluebats; pseudo-code; real-code of any flavour.
Basically anything that will make the penny drop as to how to code this beast?

Hi everyone. I just bought a new computer with Windows8. I'm used to XP so this is very new to me, although I think I'm getting the hang of it. Anyway, all of the sudden yesterday the lock screen keeps coming on every few seconds and makes me put in the password to get back to what I was doing. It didn't do this until yesterday, for the previous 5 days since we bought it, everything was fine and I never saw this screen except when I first turned it on. Please help me figure out how to make it stop? It's driving me crazy. I think it started after a windows update but I'm not 100% positive. I know I didn't change a setting, I don't know how to do that yet. Thanks so much.

6 Bands No One Noticed Broke Up
By Corey Deiterman
In front of a live Fuel TV audience on the Fox Studios lot in L.A., they patiently play through two takes each of two of Mine Is Yours' strongest cuts, thumping blues-rock nugget/lead single "Louder Than Ever" and future CW Network-show tearjerker "Skip the Charades." The progression is clear from the band's earlier, more raucous days, with polished songs buoyed by more precise vocals by throaty singer Nathan Willett, lush keyboards, plaintive backup vocals and glimmering, delayed guitar lines The Edge would envy, courtesy of guitarist Jonnie Russell.
At one point, Willett actually has to ask a crowd of kids watching not to clap along, so the performance won't be muddied when it airs. "Less enthusiasm," he jokes.
813 St. Emanuel
Houston, TX 77003
Category: Music Venues
Region: East End
Cold War Kids
With Baths, 8 p.m. Thursday, March 31, at Warehouse Live, 813 St. Emanuel, 713-225-5483 or www.warehouselive.com.
"I feel like we've been working up to this one," Willett says, sitting at a table outside the studio after the taping. "I feel like you can't take yourself so seriously in terms of the 'arriving' record, but I think for us, it felt like, 'Okay, I can see us expanding here.'"
The band, which also includes the two Matts, Maust (bass) and Aveiro (drums), started in Fullerton, California, in 2004, living communally and touring on 2006's Robbers & Cowards and 2008's Loyalty to Loyalty, each release bringing them bigger success. Yet despite British enthusiasm, modern-rock hits such as "Hang Me Up to Dry" and "Something Is Not Right With Me," plus Loyalty to Loyalty's entering the Billboard charts at No. 21, critics have been divided on the band, and Cold War Kids haven't achieved the kind of world-dominating success they so clearly could.
"If we had any expectations [early on], we kind of ignored them," Maust says. "I think we have them now. But I think that for the good first bit of the raw-dog-ness of starting a band, we just wanted to play music."
The band holed up for seven weeks in February and March of last year in Nashville to record; then, to finish the record, they headed to Los Angeles, where they've recently relocated after stays in Fullerton and Long Beach. "You either die or you homogenize," Willett says of what tends to happen to Orange County-based bands.
Willett and Maust say King brought to the table both patience and the ability to take their songwriting to a new level and eliminate their self-described "studiophobia."
"We always spend very minimal time in the studio and seem to focus more on our live show," Maust says, thumbing the band's four-inch mascot, a stuffed animal named Lucky Taz. "This time, we went into the studio with just ideas, a lot of ideas — a lot of really good ideas and with no complete songs, which is a little intimidating for us. But we felt really comfortable with Jacquire."
Maust says they wrote songs for the album after lengthy jam sessions, adding things such as synths and congas where necessary. Flashes of newness for the band, such as the looping drums underpinning "Bulldozer" and the electro-blues of "Sensitive Kid," are matched by big vocal hooks and splashy drums in just about every song. Lyrically, Willett refocuses from the more narrative content of the darker Loyalty to Loyalty to relationship drama on Mine Is Yours. This, perhaps, is a result of the band's influences while recording.
"It seems to me with the other records, we always used other bands and music as common ground," Willett says. "This time, we watched so many movies."
The films of Robert Altman (Short Cuts), John Cassavetes (Husbands) and P.T. Anderson (Magnolia), in particular, informed Willett's storytelling — films that deal with people and how they relate to one another.
"I think watching certain movies made me see things that were going on in my life and around me," Willett says. "A lot of it was relationally and having to do with commitment — people who were jumping into commitments very seriously, some of them successfully, some of them not so much."
Willett openly hopes for the new record to be a commercial and critical success, the kind that bands such as Arcade Fire and The National have recently enjoyed. He admits he now pays attention to criticism after having largely ignored it in the past.
"I see how special those bands are and how they have gotten to do what they do on a wide-audience level, and I think we could be kind of in their company," he says. "We'll see how this record does, I guess. You kinda have to allow for it to connect organically."

Solarpraxis has wrapped up yet another successful PV Power Plants Conference in Las Vegas
World-class speakers provided knowledge and insight into the successful planning of large-scale PV projects
The Solarpraxis conference PV Power Plants 2010 - USA proved that there is a thirst of knowledge in the US market for information regarding financing and policy for large-scale PV projects. Manufacturers, project developers, utilities, analysts and investors gathered to attend this second Solarpraxis U.S. conference to hear from the event's featured speakers: Shayle Kann (GTM Research/Greentech Media), Julia Hamm (Solar Electric Power Association), Mark Fillinger (First Solar, Inc.), Greg Sheppard (iSuppli Corporation), Rudy Perez (Southern California Edison), Boris Schubert (Q-Cells SE), Fred M. Greguras (K&L Gates LLP) and many others.
Speakers and panelists discussed the best ways to develop the North American PV Market and addressed issues such as how to make use of different subsidies and government incentives, and what the current bank lending environment like. Attendees were eager to hear more; solar analyst Chris Hiller of Stellar Energy GP, Inc. - a leading California-based solar energy integrator - said, "…the conference was great and very informative…" and that he is already looking forward to next year's December conference.
Brade Meikle, Chairman of Silverado Power LLC, shared that, "In the emerging industry of Solar PV there is a conference almost every week. My colleagues and I have been to many Solarpraxis events, in both the US and Europe, and they have all been very well managed. The quality of the speakers & panelists is excellent, and as a result these events are attended by senior members of the industry. I found this year's event to be extremely worthwhile and will certainly be attending in 2011."
A final report on the conference can be found in the January 2010 issue of pv magazine and information regarding future Solarpraxis conferences can be found at www.solarpraxis.com/conferences

Laurenovich unleashes a video for his project with Buckwild, which you can now cop on double vinyl. Directed by Oz Perla.
This ticks all the boxes for CRC approval:
– Trag and Royal Flush raps

– Low budget video
– Classic loop
Bonus points for the Le Coq Sportif reference, although Marciano apparently wasn't able to make it to the video shoot on some ol' LL-missing-the-"Rampage"-clip type shit. Taken from the Thirty Eight LP.
This is the second video from the free Counterstrike 2: A Decade of Unkut project, featuring Him-Lo Da Inapproriate stomping through Philly, as shot and directed by CRC VP richdirection for aunqueting media. Look out for Him-Lo's Complimentary Snacks tape, dropping here in the near future.

First video from the 1200 BC EP is business as usual from the rapping fireman – b&w visuals and low-key rap hands.
An old Cypress Hill classic gets a welcome update from ya boy RAST RFC and a DJ Treats fan-vid.
Having returned to the music game five years ago after an extended hiatus, DJ King Shameek is back rocking clubs on a regular basis in New Jersey and beyond, but you most likely first saw him do his thing with Twin Hype for their dance floor classic "Do It To The Crowd." Shameek took some time out of his schedule to talk about his roots as a DJ and early production techniques, King Sun vs. Ice Cube and his involvement with the mysterious diss record "The Truth" in 1999, which may have inspired 50 Cent's "How To Rob."
Robbie: What made you want to take deejaying seriously?
DJ King Shameek: I was living in California at the time – I'm originally from New Jersey – but my uncle was at a legendary club in Newark, NJ called The Zanibar, so every time he used to come to California he would always bring a couple of records and give me some stuff, and I would see photographs of him deejaying. That's when I really started trying to persue it a little more, get turntables and stuff like that. This is when they didn't even have a mixer with a cross-fader yet. I was getting these microphone mixers that just had the faders up and down, so I would just sit there with a left and a right, putting one up and then putting the other one down! It was hilarious if you think about it now. I was always collecting records and I inherited records from my parents – they brought me up on a lotta Motown stuff and some Spanish stuff here and there. I was preparing myself in my adolescent years, toying around with my father's record player, trying to scratch on them! [laughs] I would try to do that when he wasn't watching. I ended up leaving California in '87. Before that I was just doing a few gigs by being featured here and there, it wasn't until I came here that I started producing and deejaying professionally.
Pretty much self-explanatory, from a series of twelve 7 inch singles that will be released over two months. Note the 45 King slip mats courtesy of BBP.
New clip from former Killa Kid Ruc Da Jackel as he recruits QB legend Blaq Poet to bless the booth.
This is an expanded version of Showbiz & AG's last team-up with DJ Premier from the Mugshot Music: Preloaded album, adding on verses from A-Bless, Tashane and Majestic Gage.
Clearly need to send Mr. Westwood a properly fitted Conservative Rap Coalition polo in the near future.
DJ Father Shaheed of Poor Righteous Teachers was killed in an accident while riding his motorbike on 26 May, 2014. After releasing "Time To Say Peace" on the independent North Side Records in 1989, Wise Intelligent, Culture Freedom and Father Shaheed (who was going by the handle of Devine on the original pressing), they were picked up by Profile Records, who re-issued the single with a remix and followed up with the Holy Intellect LP the following year. This contained what turned-out to be their breakout single – "Rock This Funky Joint." Offering perhaps the rawest 5% rhetoric of the era over addictive rhythms, PRT made quite an impression and quickly gained a loyal fanbase. Their manager at the time, Kevon Glickman, who I interviewed in 2007, had this to say:
The Giant pays a visit to Premier's lab for some Bronx bars.
Good to see someone finally doing The Wop correctly. Only thing that could have made this clip better would have been a Robbie Rap Handz cameo.
BK resident Innocent? has been blessed with a superb Fantom of the Beat (aka Haas G) beat and a suitably low-budget video in preparation for the Love it or Hate it LP.

We hope that they'll return to visit with us again.

Barb & Jim are very nice and quiet couple. It was nice to have them with us.
Barbara and her husband were a great guests. I recomand them absolutely and I will host them anytime with a big pleasure.
Barb & Jim stayed with us for just under a week. They are a lovely relaxed couple on a grand adventure. We really enjoyed having them around, great company and lots of fascinating tales. It was a pleasure getting to know them. They've also given us the traveling bug again. We would welcome them back to our home any time.
Australia calling! It was great to have Jim and Barb here to remind us of just how much we loved Australia, and their cool laid back fun attitude to life, they make it all seem so easy. Jim and Barb were moving into the last quarter of a year long trip around the world, the 2nd time they'd taken a year off in their lives to do such a trip. They had a lovely pace about them and were very nice to be around, we had a good laugh and chat with them when they were here in the evening, and heard lots about their travels through India. We would highly recommend Jim and Barb, they were just perfect guests and enjoyed their time in Dublin before they headed off for a week or two around Ireland. We're looking forward to seeing them again in Brisbane :-) Fiona & Liam
