The Passive-Aggressive Letter Of Recommendation [Caution: Language]
by Chris Malone
posted Aug 12 2014 4:25AM
Quite possible the worst recommendation letter of all time! An Australian man asked his previous employer for a letter of reference after working at a pawnshop for multiple years. Unfortunately, his former boss wasn't exactly glad to see him go. A word of caution, if strong language and profanity is offensive to you, it's best to avoid reading the letter!

The computer science general emphasis major consists of 8 core courses plus 4 specialization courses (2 courses from each of 2 specialization areas). Both BA and BS degree choices provide students with a strong background for advanced study at the graduate level. Starting in Spring 2015, a computer science comprehensive emphasis major will be added. This major will require the completion of 16 core courses plus four specialization courses, a capstone and additional science requirements. Sample 4-year plans are posted in the Student Resources page.
In addition, the department offers several minors/emphases for students who would like a stronger background in computer science to complement their chosen major.

Zephyr Venezia Hood
Getting closer to finalizing my kitchen equipment. Have decided on a Bluestar 36" 6-burner rangetop and want to pair it with a Zephyr 42" Venezia hood. Does anyone have this hood and if so, can you provide your opinions on the unit? It's seems to be about perfect for our needs but the only item I am unsure about are the mesh filters (I originally wanted baffles). Thoughts?
I have had this Venezia hood installed for 2 years now. Mine is a 30" over a 30" DF Wolf range. It functions well and I love the lighting it provides. My counters on the range run are 28 1/2" deep so I wanted a deeper hood. My kitchen is part of a great room set-up and I have seating at the island across the aisle.
I have no problem with the mesh filters and I too thought I would prefer baffles. They pop in and out easily and are easy to clean. We use almost no oil and don't prepare red meat or pork in our cooking. It's mostly steam from vegetables, homemade soups, and eggs that is quickly absorbed through the hood.
My one warning about this hood is the noise produced above the level 3 setting. I use a setting above three once a year when I make potato pancakes. I generally run it at level 2 or 3. We can carry on a conversation at our island and have the hood on level 1. We can watch TV (at normal volume) across the great room at level 2. We are sitting about 13' from the hood.
Overall, I am happy with the purchase. It looks good, is well-made and the stainless is not difficult to keep dust and grime free. It functions well for our family.
Owls - Thanks for the information. I'm going to take a look at the hood at a local kitchen store.
We'll probably have more grease/oil running through the hood in our home although with my wife and son being vegetarians, probably not too much. As well, we make latkes once in a while and we all know how much smoke and aerated grease can be caused by that action!!
Too bad regarding the noise level although the higher settings may not be used that often. That's why I need to check it out. I'm hoping it fits the bill as I don't want to spend any more on a hood.

The MOF has recently approved the opening of three offices by KPMG Huazhen (Special General Partnership) in Chengdu, Xiamen and Qingdao. Localisation has been one of the basic strategies of KPMG China's operations.
The award recognises a select number of leading professional firms and advisers that have performed to exceptional levels, even during the most difficult period that the global economy has experienced for decades.
What start-ups need to consider? Where to get access to information? What events they can consider to attend?
Despite rising costs in China and the subsequent implications for manufacturers, a unique mix of factors is prompting new value propositions in the country as companies re-align strategies and adapt to changing economic conditions.
The content is based on the responses of 213 senior business decision-makers across five key countries: Australia, China, Indonesia, the Philippines and Singapore. It analyses the state of D&A maturity across the Asia-Pacific region.

Can I save this? It was a Saison, and I racked it onto 1 vanilla bean and 6# of canned peaches in the secondary...here's what I saw after 2 weeks in the secondary.
Can I turn this into a lambic? It doesn't smell bad at all...but I'm scared to taste it
I'm trying to catalog every brew online so I don't have to keep notes all over the house. Check it out on my blog site below:http://brewzak.wordpress.com/
Yep, you've got yourself a sour I think!
I'm not sure what type of pellicle that is, but I'd let it go.
Thanks Yoop
By let it go...do you mean toss it out? Or let it ride for a few months...
If nothing else you got yourself a damn cool picture!
My condolences. If we lived closer, I'd be compeled to bring you a bucket of chicken or a casarole of some sort so you wouldn't have to cook during your mourning period.
sour saison sounds tasty to me. Don't toss it, it may turn out wonderful and don't be afraid to taste it no known human pathogen can grow in beer so at worst it will only taste bad.
OMG - ok so I took out a small sample to taste it (my girlfriend thought I was INSANE)
The beer tasted normal, maybe a BIT sour but nothing like vinegar. I haven't keeled over or puked yet....
So maybe I will just let it ride? But since I have no experience with sour beers, looks like I'll have to do some more research on these forums.
Anybody got any advice? Yooper thinks I should rack it off the fruit...and I trust her opinions, but let me know anything else yalls.

The Dynamics of Darkness in the North conference: Arctic Encounters panel
Arctic Encounters has organised a panel entitled Encountering Darkness at the Dynamics of Darkness conference in Reykjavik in late February.
Arctic Encounters is a groundbreaking university research project investigating the increasingly important role of tourism in the European Arctic. Funded by HERA until 2016, the project engages international scholars across the humanities and social sciences researching travel practices as well as its textual and visual representations.
Arctic Encounters has organised a panel entitled Encountering Darkness at the Dynamics of Darkness conference in Reykjavik in late February.
Arctic Encounters team members Lars Jensen, Roskilde University and Kristín Loftsdóttir University of Iceland have recently published their new edited volume, Crisis in the Nordic Nations and Beyond: At the Intersection of Environment, Finance and Multiculturalism. Here, Kristín takes a look at some of what makes the book of particular interest to Arcticists and postcolonialists.
Arctic Encounters announces the second call for papers for its international conference, New Narratives of the Postcolonial Arctic, to be held at Roskilde University from May 27-29, 2015.
In early December 2014, Inntravel, a tour operator based in Yorkshire and one of Arctic Encounters' partners, held their triennial Discovery Day, drawing clients, journalists, suppliers and stakeholders from around the country
Arctic Encounters announces an upcoming panel about the various cultural and political (p)layers that make up the global travel writing industry – paper abstracts due 5 January.
Two prominent writers whose work in various ways can be identified as Greenlandic met at Bryggen on an appropriately cold Copenhagen evening. They represent two different generations with quite different experiences and agendas. Niviaq Korneliussen is an emerging Greenlandic writer whose first novel, a coming-out novel, HOMO Sapienne, was published to widespread acclaim last autumn. The novel represents her break with what she perceives to be an obsessively nation-focused Greenlandic discourse, which in her view offers too little to her own generation's – pardon the clichéd expression – globalized outlook. Iben Mondrup is a Danish author who spent a substantial part of her childhood in Greenland (most recently detailed in her novel, Godhavn) and who continues to operate as a critical voice in Greenmark/Denland's in-between space. She is also technically old enough to belong to Korneliussen's parents' generation, and as such represents a different generation with different colonial ghosts and perhaps experiencing a different form of postcolonial blues.
On a research trip to Northern Norway, Simone Abram gets to know Basecamp Senja, a handsome new tourist outpost on a dramatic craggy isle

Had a nice stay, very quiet room. Enjoyed the choice of firm or soft pillows on the bed. The room was clean, had a nice desk, seating area (sofa-bed),and nice flat screen TV. Bathroom was clean and spacious. The breakfast was adequate for a hotel in this category - eggs, bacon, waffles, cereal, pastries, yoghurt, hard boiled eggs. Staff was very friendly. Would stay again.

Guitar World presents five headphone songs guaranteed to blow your mind.
Gilmour delivers an acoustic rendition of this Pink Floyd classic.
These rockers weren't called "hair" bands for nothing!
This past Wednesday, September 14 was a historic night for heavy metal. The Big Four of thrash -- Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax and Megadeth -- took the stage at Yankee Stadium for arguably the biggest, most-anticipated metal show the East Coast of the United States has ever seen.
First a live blog, then a photo gallery, and now you can actually watch pro-shot footage of Metallica's set at the Big Four show at Yankee Stadium. The band has posted the below video, which features footage from soundcheck, the band's meet-and-greet with fans, the full performance of "Blackened," the Big Four jam of Motorhead's "Overkill," and more. You can watch the full video below.
This past Wednesday, September 14, was a historic night for heavy metal. The Big Four of thrash -- Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax and Megadeth -- took the stage at Yankee Stadium for arguably the biggest, most-anticipated metal show the East Coast of the United States has ever seen.
While it's no secret that competition was a major driving force for the bands of the Big Four early on, camaraderie seems to have taken its place in recent years.
As is now customary, last night's Big Four show at Yankee Stadium featured a "jam" with members of all four bands -- Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax -- taking the stage to perform a classic song. Usually, the track has been Diamond Head's "Am I Evil?," but last night, the bands played a song they had never before played together: Motorhead's "Overkill."
Back in 1997, Anthrax guitarist — and avowed New York Yankees fanatic — Scott Ian was arrested for allegedly attempting to steal an on-deck circle from the Yankees' spring training camp in Tampa, Florida. Luckily for Ian, after spending only a few hours in jail, paying a fine and apologizing to the late Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, the charges were eventually dropped.
The Big Four. Anthrax, Slayer, Megadeth and Metallica. Not only are they our November cover stars, but it just so happens that today, September 14, they're playing just their second-ever U.S. show at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, NY.
In case you've been living under a rock, the November issue of Guitar World features the members of the Big Four by way of an epic cover shoot that took place in Milan, Italy. Now, you can check out an exclusive gallery of outtakes from one of the most historic GW covers of all time below.
If streaming the song wasn't enough, you can now buy the new Megadeth song, "Public Enemy No. 1" on iTunes.
Buy it now!

CHF is Conjestive Heart Failure - in layman's terms = fluid around the lungs (this was the exact wording they gave to me, no bedside manners here, and i can still hear that tone and not understanding the doctor because of his accent!(sorry i'm not known to be someone who is prejedust, and if i've offended i apologize!) and then telling Alan he doesn't take his meds, which he does because i stand there when he takes them. (and we had just said to each other, it's been 4 months since he'd been in the hospital, a record for not being there, i guess we spoke to soon). he is hooked up to a heart monitor, has one chest x-ray a day, hates the food - yes i am still bringing him his meals but only 2 a day (because i am sticking to the visiting hours times). the doctor is pushing for him to go to Hamilton - southern ontario and is below toronto - know this is at least a 20 hour car ride or 1 1/2 hours by plane, but we know he won't survive the operation so we have decided to go the meds. route and leave everything to the powers that be. he has also told me not to call his mother or sister, he said that he can't stand the phoniness of the both of them, so my dear,dear friends matthew,carley and i do it alone (matthew's co-workers have been just great, as well as carley's teachers, they gave her work to do until a week from this tuesday when classes end, and if she can do it that would be great). re-reading this has made me sad, and especially now that day-light is breaking, think i'll just get dressed now and go to a 6 am mass. Make sure you tell at least 2 people how much you love them! debbie
Debbie, you have strength beyond measure. Your family is so lucky to have you. But remember to take care of yourself, too -- you don't want another scare like you had a while back.
Some doctors do not know what "bedside manner" refers to. Fries my a**, let me tell you.
I hope Al is feeling better and home with you all soon.
Look at the time! tleast i slept for awhile, dd and the dog who hasn't eaten for days are in bed with me, it's kindof nice but i think i do need to be alone but if it makes her feel better that's good, she's come to the hospital everytime i've went and hasn't done much for her homework, she said she can't concentrate at all! i'm surprised she did as much as she did! and she's still up to being silly waving at people who walk by )this is the new hospital called the Tajma hospital and is built like many courtyard and you can see people walking down a glass hallway, alot of money has been wasted and should have been spent on finding more doctors, i don't think people care about fireplaces and inlaid tiles with pictures on the floor - anyways a topic here that makes anyone in this city almost go crazy). it was so hot here because of all the rain we had on sat. nite, hard to believe living right on lake superior, and our house is only a 20 minute walk from it. al is miserable like always and wants to come home! but when i went with him for chest x-rays yesterday morning he had low blood sugar 2.4, they put him on an iv where his blood is now 14.6, so they take him off the iv, and give no insulin again, al's regular doctor is not in town, so we have another doctor, who is matthew's friends dad and also went to high school with al and they were also friends until he went away to university (well both of them, are you all confused yet? - lol)he comes in and al figures we're friends and maybe i can get him to let me go home, he tells al he won't be going anywhere, his x-ray shows that he has a bit of a spot on it and he also has pnenomia (sp) and also i find out, when the doctor says you also had a very,very mild heart attack and the CHF! if that isn't bad enough al says he also feels ill and thinks he might have picked up somekind of bug too! he also thinks the doctor is going to let him go home sometime today (since it is monday right now). the city i live in has the largest of people with heart disease and heart attacks, can you believe there are people in the hospital that are in their early 30's, they don't eat right, exercise, or live a fast lifestyle. i think that we eat right, i make everything and we only eat out if it;s someones birthday or a special occassion, we live within walking distance of the fast food strip and i can say that i've been to the golden arches maybe 6 times, we don't drink at all, and are very boring, but still there is illness, maybe it's the grain elevators here or the paper mills, although neither of us have worked at one of these. well my milk has warmed up so maybe this will make me go to sleep, enjoy your morning and keep your figures crossed al doesn't come home!!! I need the break such as it is, the nurses say he is a real sweetie pie and his room mate says he's such a nice guy because he's so quiet and polite! (ps he still says not to call his mother) debbie (and hugs to all of you too!!!)

I made Papazians hoegaarden Grang Cru Recipe recently. The only thing I did was instead of using 5 lbs. of DME, I used around 6.75 lbs so I would get a higher gravity. It sat in the primary for a week, then I racked it to the secondary, it's been in there a little over a week. It's barely bubbling now (once every 5 minutes) and the Gravity has gone from 1060 to 1013, and has been at 1013 for about 3 days. the Gravity in the original recipe started at 1055 and had Final gravity of 1010.
Since I started at a higher gravity, should I expect it to finish higher too?
Should I let it sit a few more days before bottling, or should I go ahead and bottle the batch?
Sounds ready to bottle to me....
Your apparent attenuation is 77% and probably the high end for your yeast strain. Your ABV is 6.2.
If it's not done, it's real close. 1bubble every five minutes could mean the yeast are still doing their work or it could be out-gassing.
Did you compensate for your extra malt by adding more hops? If not, your brew will be on the sweet side.

Japan's amazing Nabana no Sato winter light show
Millions of solar-powered light bulbs make this small botanical garden the hottest spot this winter
Dubbed the best annual light show in Japan, the Nabana no Sato botanical garden has sprouted 7 million LED lights this winter.
The theme of this year's display is nature. The tunnels of millions of LED lights encased in flower-shaped bulbs create amazing natural scenes, such as Mount Fuji at dawn and a rainbow across the sky.
A large area of the park is powered by solar panels.
Apart from the botanical garden, Nabana no Sato, on the southern island of Nagashima, is known for onsens and flower blossoms throughout the year. It's a part of the Nagashima Onsen resort area.
The show runs from mid-November to March 31.
Nabana no Sato, 270 Komae, Nagashima-chō, Kuwana-shi, Mie-ken, 511-1144; open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m.- 9 p.m., weekends and holidays from 9 a.m.- 10 p.m.; JPY 2,000 (US$24), free for children under 12; www.nagashima-onsen.co.jp

The Trayvon Martin racial litmus test — and the blame game bonanza
I write about a lot of things on my blog and in my columns. But I also leave a lot of news uncovered — because, simply, there isn't enough time in the day.
This week, progressives and lib media activists elevated a tragic Florida shooting involving a 17-year-old boy into the cause celebre of the week. Over at my new startup, Twitchy, our editorial team has covered all aspects of the story. But for the past several days, zealous libs on Twitter have demanded that I "say something." Why? Because they've turned the horrible death of Trayvon Martin into a racial litmus test.
And now, Barack Obama is all too willing to pour gas on the fire.
President Obama weighed in Friday on the shooting of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin, calling it a national tragedy – and saying that the young man reminded him of his own children.
"When I think about this boy, I think about my own kids," Obama said in Rose Garden remarks. "I think every parent in America should be able to understand why it is absolutely imperative that we investigate every aspect of this. And that everybody pull together."
Obama has come under fire from some black leaders for failing to comment on a case that has become a major national story — and brought thousands of Americans into the streets for demonstrations calling for the arrest of Martin's shooter. One black leader even wondered why Obama called a Georgetown student who was attacked by Rush Limbaugh, but not Martin's family. Obama's comments Friday represent the first time the president has addressed the growing controversy.
"My main message is to the parents of Trayvon Martin. You know, if I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon," Obama said. "All of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves."
"Obviously this is a tragedy. I can only imagine what these parents are going through," Obama said. "All of us have to do some soul searching to figure out how something like this has happened."
What do Trayvon's race and looks have to do with anything? The political opportunism undercuts the very "seriousness" Obama purports to display.
The Al Sharpton/New Black Panthers Party-led mob is forging ahead with its polarizing racial profiling narratives despite the fact that the alleged shooter is Hispanic and multiracial:
The Sanford Neighborhood Watch volunteer who shot and killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, did not instigate the encounter but has received death threats and moved out of his home, his father told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday.
George Zimmerman, 28, has not been arrested, something that has put him and the Sanford Police Department at the center of a firestorm. Critics say Trayvon, who was visiting family from his home in Miami, was a victim of racial profiling.
Zimmerman's father, 64-year-old Robert Zimmerman of Lake Mary, delivered a one-page letter to the Sentinel on Thursday, saying that the depiction of his son in the media has been cruel and misleading.
George Zimmerman is Hispanic and grew up in a multiracial family, the statement says.
"He would be the last to discriminate for any reason whatsoever …," the letter says. "The media portrayal of George as a racist could not be further from the truth."
No matter. The blame game bonanza is in full swing, with Barack Obama's tacit consent:
MSNBC's Ed Schultz blames Jeb Bush.
Another MSNBC blabber blames Rush, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich.
Same as it ever was: Exploiting every random act of violence to criminalize and chill conservative dissent.
Side note: At least left, right, and center can all agree: Geraldo Rivera is an assclown.

This is a brilliantly written and wonderfully performed show from Callinan.
The next generation of musical theatre superstars hit the stage last night in Jason Robert Brown's musical, 13, which is a coming of age story for a group of tweens in a small town in America.
Sophie Joske is a talented young performer and writer. She has chosen a fertile field in the area of would be adulthood and seeming sophistication.
Fake it 'til you make it was the worst piece of advice given to a group of men who suffer the debilitating disease of depression. It made Bryony Kimmings quite angry, and when she gets angry, she brews a new show. This is it, and it's breathtaking.
The performers are world-class, but what really makes this production an extravagant indulgence is the set design and costumes. While visually spellbinding, they also provide their own sonic aesthetic quality that makes this more than just another opera.
Serena Chalker combines imagination, wordcraft and dance to create a totally new thoughtscape for each participant in her latest FringeWorld offering.
AJ and Edie are attempting a weekend getaway in a hotel as a last ditch effort to rekindle their will to stay married, if only for the sake of their daughter.

Car radio repair
I have a 1987 Coupe DeVille with a Delco radio. I live near Austin Tx and need a repair shop able to diagnose a problem with the radio. None in Yellow Pages anymore.
Radio went from working fine to playing on only 1 speaker of the 4.. Checked as best I could for loose connections, but all terminations are tight and the terminals are clean at the rear of the radio.
I really don't want one of the latest/greatest radios. Too complicated/busy.
Anyone know of a radio repair/service in my local area?
Here you go....
Here is a link that might be useful: Car radio repair in Austin
Problems developed with the radios on both of my trucks, different makes. Most of those repair shops are now gone in my area, too. So I bought for one truck on eBay, $50 delivered, and from local wrecking yard for $35 for the other. Both of those are working perfectly. I kept the originals for possible future repair or exchange if necessary.
You are likely right about the speakers being mechanically shot but there still may be a radio problem as well. Back in the days when the car was in its youth, fairly common failure items were the power transistors screwed to the back of the radio chassis which were used to drive the speakers. If the problem remains after new speakers are installed, those two or four items would be another good area to substitute with new or known to be good used items.
I replaced all 4 speakers. Rear spks were easy to find, but the 2 front were not. The dash spks had to have a 2.375" diameter magnet to fit in the spkr tray. Asked on a Caddy forum and lucked out when a member supplied the brand and model number needed.
Back in business with 4 working speakers.
1st thing to do is, suspect the speakers. Use a tester to check continuity/resistance between the two speaker wires at each speaker. I too first thought the problem was in the radio. It was never the radio.
Once the speakers prove to have continuity/resistance, then check the connections at the back of the unit. Maybe something is loose/corroded making a poor electrical connection. Once those steps are taken and the problems still exist.....suspect internal radio problem.

A K&L exclusive direct import from the folks at Spring Vale on the Freycinet Coast of Tasmania. Spring Vale Estate has been farmed by the Lyne family since 1875. Their first vines were planted in 1986. This Pinot comes off the Melrose Vineyard that was planted in 1998. If you haven't tried one of these cool climate Tazzie Pinots before, now is your chance. The wine is bright, fresh, fruit driven and very soft and lush. Made in a very deliberate easy drinking style, the fruit undergoes very light extraction to limit the tannin levels. It is highly aromatic with floral rose petal and strawberry notes on the nose. On the palate it shows ripe cherry, strawberry, cake spice and raspberry coulis. It sits halfway between great Cru Beaujolais and Russian River Pinot! Such a great summer and fall wine. Really versatile with grilled chicken, fish or just by itself on a warm evening! (Ryan Woodhouse K&L Aussie wine buyer) The winemakers notes: "This is a bright, juicy Pinot Noir with dark cherry, strawberries, raspberries underscored by earth and cola notes. Its acidity and fine tannins are perfectly integrated and balanced on its mid-weight frame."
Below is a listing of the wine review scores we frequently reference in our notes. While these sources remain an excellent source of information, we always recommend that you trust your own palate. Scores in these publications often represent the personal taste of an individual critic, which may not always coincide with your own. We have a huge team of excellent wine professionals that can match wines you've had in the past with new arrivals that meet your flavor profile.

Soule Monde (ft. Ray Paczkowski & Russ Lawton from Trey Anastasio Band) w/ Malai Llama and The Angle
Cervantes' Other Side
2637 Welton St.,
Denver, CO, 80205
Doors 8:00 PM / Show 9:00 PM (event ends at 2:00 AM)
This event is 16 and over
Watch & Listen
Being members of The Trey Anastasio Band, it's fairly safe to assume that Hammond Organ player Ray Paczkowski and drummer Russ Lawton are damn good at what they do. So the only real question is: how much do you like instrumental jazz/funk? When it's played this well, honestly, it's hard to resist. Lawton keeps the grooves hard and Paczkowski knows how to keep a jam interesting, coming back to main melodic lines often enough that they feel like hooks, and never being too indulgent with his noodling. Each track has enough structure that you can follow along, and is also different enough from the other that the record as a whole is consistently interesting. -Kyle Gervais/Dispatch
The duo's name, Soule Monde ("soul-ay mon-day"), is inspired by Lawton's middle name (Soule) and Paczkowski's first name (Raymond). While comparable to The Benevento/Russo Duo and Billy Martin/Wil Blades, Soule Monde stake out their own turf by focusing on composition and narrative. On their eponymous first album, you hear their years in the touring trenches with TAB, and you hear two locked-in players who start, end and center each other's musical sentences. From Lawton you hear reactive, always in the pocket drums, and from Paczkowski a repository of moves heretofore only foreshadowed in his work as a sideman.
Paczkowski demonstrates a thorough understanding of players like Jimmy McGriff, Art Neville, Jimmy Smith and Herbie Hancock. The grammy-nominated Lawton's beats and fills push the melodies along a tightrope. Throughout the album, Paczkowski's bass lines provide a solid basis for his clavinet and Lawton's energetic rhythms. Each tune started as an improvisation but was developed into a full composition: a recipe that can lead to some self-indulgent stinkers. But there's nothing thrown together or haphazard or indulgent about this... It's a fully risen soufflé for the body and the mind.
"The Story" starts off dark and dirty, but quickly adds a layer when Paczkowski transitions from clavinet to Hammond B3. The hint of "Wilson" will cause many folks to think of that other band that successfully turns spur-of-the-moment jams into epic tales full of peaks and valleys. If the first minute of "Tango" doesn't cement Paczkowski as this generation's Billy Preston, then grits ain't groceries, eggs ain't poultry and Mona Lisa was a man. If this album doesn't elevate Soule Monde to a national tour and 17 more albums, I'll be surprised. If anyone ever tells you instrumentals don't tell a story, point them Soule Monde's way. –David Paul Kleinman
The Malai Llama is a 5-piece instrumental band that combines genres like jazz, rock, and electronica in a psychedelic fusion . Each show is heightened by the energy and passion they pour into their music. The Malai Llama push musical boundaries by combining the real energy of instrumentation with the electronic exploration of synthesizers, turntables and samples in dynamic song structures. People all around Colorado have been moving their feet to their grooves.
Malai Llama consists of:
Chris Cornwall (drums)
John DeSousa (bass)
Steven Govanlu (keys, guitar)
Matt Flaherty (guitar)
Chris Sterling (percussion, turn tables)
Formed in early 2012 and based out of Denver Colorado, The Angle has already created a buzz because of the well known musical history of it's members. Chris Long on Bass and Brian Baxter on Keyboards toured nationally with Colorado bands Swivel Hips Smith and Big Shark Jackson - sharing the stage with heavy hitters such as Robert Walter's 20TH Congress, Merl Saunders and The Motet. Next. they joined forces in the Colorado funky favorite Full Stop from 2005-2011, playing and packing the rooms all throughout Colorado. Brian Sachs on drums, began his musical career with the legendary NYC band the Authority. After playing with the Authority for 7 years and sharing the stage with, Dave Matthews, Blues Traveler, Public Enemy and many other legendary bands, Brian moved to Colorado and met up with Chris and Brian. The chemistry was immediate and they knew that they stumbled upon something special.
The Angle takes their listeners on a journey with songs that tell a musical story and rarely play it safe. The band creates a unique sound that is timeless, and wins over listeners that enjoy many different styles of music. With a strong foundation of Rock and Funk, over-toned with Jazz and R&B, spiced up a bit with Latin and Classical, The Angle can captivate a small room or rock a large hall. This trio is poised to be a major player in the Colorado music scene in 2013 and for many years ahead.

"I just received this today and they're gorgeous! I know they're intented as Thank You notes for those who attend your event but I added them to my daughters invitation as a Thank You note with a small message to request cash gifts. Very well done card, nice material & loved the design =)."
"I like writing short and to the point thank you notes and this size was perfect. The design is adorable and the card quality is perfect for a thank you note. You are able to write a good amount without leaving so much blank space which is nice."
"I thought it was so intuitive putting this together and it came out so beautifully - better than I was expecting. The paper is very thick and the colors are pale (maybe a bit lighter than I was expecting). I made these as a thank you letter for my toddler daughter for when she gets presents from friends/ family so she can send out her own Thank You cards and her picture is on the back for family that don't see her too often. Can't wait to get these again next year when she gets a bit bigger and we can pick out another design."
"These notecards are perfect for the guest of honor to receive as part of her baby shower gift. She can use them to send notes to her guests thanking them for the gifts they brought. They are simple, elegant single notecards with your choice of monogram letter and footer that can be personalized."
"I ordered these cards for my brand new granddaughter and her Mommie loves them and looks forward to writing short and sweet notes for all the treasures she is receiving from family and friends."

State Jobs Numbers Show a Labor Market That Has Been in Poor Health for Far Too Long
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
By David Cooper June 20, 2014
The monthly Regional and State Employment and Unemployment Summary, released this morning by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, showed some signs of continued labor market improvement—but also evidence of a labor market that has been in poor health for far too long. Even as unemployment rates slowly ticked down in most states, too many years of dismal job growth have led to millions of missing workers giving up the job search.
Over the period from February 2014 to May 2014, 43 states and the District of Columbia added jobs. The South (+0.7 percent) experienced the largest regional growth, while West Virginia (+2.2 percent), Alaska (+1.2 percent), and Utah (+1.2 percent) had the largest state increases. Seven states lost jobs during this time, with Illinois (-0.3 percent), Nebraska (-0.2 percent), and South Dakota (-0.2 percent) seeing the largest declines.
From February 2014 to May 2014, unemployment rates fell in 34 states, with Illinois (-1.2 percent), Ohio (-1.0 percent), and Rhode Island (-0.8 percent) seeing the greatest improvement. Unfortunately, some of these declines were due to workers giving up the job search rather than finding employment, as the labor force shrank in both Illinois and Ohio. As previously noted, Illinois actually had the largest loss of jobs over this period.
The unemployment rate was unchanged in 6 states, and rose in 10 states plus the District of Columbia. The largest increases occurred in Alabama (+0.4 percent), Louisiana (+0.4 percent), and West Virginia (+0.4 percent). Once again, seemingly conflicting indicators, this time in West Virginia—where job growth was accompanied by an increase in unemployment—are another sign of a labor market that has been in distress for too long. At least in this case, the data suggest some previously discouraged job seekers may have resumed their search.

At the moment it is raining -- fairly heavy and steady. Where is my rain coat? On the bottom of my suitcase where it serves as padding for 3 bottles of wine, a bottle of oil, and a weather vane.

Nice one. What is the resolution of the display
While ago I changed my car to Audi A5 sportback with 3G MMI low navigation system. I wanted to get Android running on it, to listen music from Spotify and also play with the Torque app to check acceleration times and so.
For a long time I have been waiting android based device to Audi which can be controlled by touch screen. There are Android devices with DVD player for Symphony or Concert radios, but not for MMI systems. Those are also rather expensive and requires also installation of DVD player into the glove box.
I decided to go with video interface and android TV stick. The only problem was that external touch panels didn't work with Android. Problem was solved just about month ago, when Car-solutions.com released an USB touch screen controller for Android.
Finally I have touch screen controllable Android device running on my car! I have MMI navigation, but navigation apps works on android with external bluetooth GPS.
I installed video interface and rest of the components behind the glove box and Tronsmart T428 Android TV stick into the fuse box on the right side. T428 can be easily removed, if there is need to do firmware upgrades etc.
Here's the list of needed components:
-Video interface, e.g. Video Interface for Audi MMI 3G
-Android TV stick, e.g. Tronsmart T428 Tronsmart T428 Quad Core Mini PC Android 4.2 Rockchip RK3188
-Touch panel, e.g. 6.5" Flexible Touch Screen Panel
-Universal Touch Screen Controller USB from Car-solutions.com
-HDMI to AV composite converter
-Bluetooth OBD2 adapter, e.g. Mini ELM327 OBD2 II Bluetooth
-Cigarette lighter socket
-Car charger with two USB ports to power up android TV stick and HDMI to AV converter
-2x Fuse Tap Piggy Backs to power video interface and cigarette lighter socket
-Audio cable, 3.5mm male to RCA
Unfortunately I don't have pictures of the installation because nothing is visible. Only the av source switch is visible.
Please check my video of using the setup:
Nice one. What is the resolution of the display
I was looking into the universal touch controller, how does it install??
How is the universal touch controller installed??
Controller is plug and play. No need to install any drivers. It may depend on the Android version, but it was supported on 4.2. something running on T428...
Very interesting the touch screen controller but it has enormous shipping cost!

Concussions behind him, Sanchez working hard
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Giants catcher Hector Sanchez has gone from feeling awful to a feel-good story.
Last year, Sanchez wasn't completely sure he'd play baseball again. The lingering effects of two concussions, which he sustained in a span of less than a month, brought the robust 25-year-old to his knees. When he kneels these days, it's to say grateful prayers.
