A short stroll down Mulberry Street
Wandered into Little Italy a few weeks ago. It's a bit of the same as it's ever been and a lot like it never was, except maybe in movies and TV and what we expect of it. Part history, part fantasy. We had a brilliant cannoli at Cafe Roma though, along with an exquisite piece of Italian cheesecake, which might be the most important thing.
The streets are narrow and cluttered with cars and people and lights and banners waving in the air, trying to grab your attention. Despite the cold winter day, vendors and restaurateurs beckoned as the aromas of a few thousand years of tradition wafted by. Classic restaurants, straight out of 1952, or maybe Goodfellas or The Sopranos: This guy was determined that we were going to eat here… no discussion! Would you say no to him? Really?
While I enjoy al fresco dining, there was snow on the ground! This old place probably hosted a speakeasy back in the day.
This guy with the accordion however, as enchanting as could be! Did not notice the creepy dude peeking out over his right shoulder until I got home, though. And who could resist Umberto's Clam House??? Or the charm of statues of Native Americans guarding the entrance to the cigar shop? And of course, it wouldn't be complete without a slightly menacing corner, with a couple of slightly unsavoury characters strolling by.
But despite the sentiment, Little Italy has all but disappeared, mostly gobbled up by Chinatown and SoHo and areas that have just stopped being Little Italy and become something else.
Kinda sad, kinda just how it is. Kinda weird being old enough that history is not something relegated to old books and movies. I remember how it used to be and see how it is now. And it's not that I think it should be any different than it is – I just marvel at what has changed.
And if Little Italy is transformed, then I suppose I am too…
Kicking Around Brooklyn in the Snow
I've been beating myself up lately for neglecting this blog… sigh… the reality is I've been doing so much travel and making so many pictures, I've really not had the time to develop or share them. Just got back from the US on Saturday. There's over a thousand photos to process…
Let's start with a Fabulous Snowy Day in Williamsburg! We rented an Air BnB apartment on Berry St and waited for the world to happen. The World did not disappoint!!!
It's kind of sad that the smokers are really the only ones out there savouring the moment. Everyone else was in a rush to get somewhere out of it.
Looking down the street.
And up the street!
And just not going to be going anywhere, really… Better get back inside where it's warm. (And I mean warm! Why are all New York apartments so bloody hot???)
I just love Williamsburg :-)
Santa Monica Pier on a Cold and Lonely Night
The view from our budget hotel on Redondo Beach Drive was a bit surreal. The beach was many miles away and there was no shopping or nearby attractions, making me wonder what might have possessed anyone to build a hotel in such a place…But having settled in, we decided to go to Santa Monica Pier for dinner in the evening. And that's when things got really strange…
It seemed a bit ghost-y, all candy coloured, but somehow toxic… and if this was an amusement park – where are all the people???
There were a few stragglers and lost souls wandering around, including a little girl looking for some answers wherever she could find them…
But she couldn't tell me what it was all about either since I have forgotten how to speak Threeish.
Yeah… I know… first Big and then Forrest Gump… it is LA we're talking about here… I felt a wee bit of relief when we left… I mean, it was cool, but kinda creepy… like everyone was out of town……….
Morning mist
On the way to the balloon festival… the morning was a bit on the foggy side. Misty morning is my favourite…The swan and friends are a bit romantic
The hospital in the breaking dawn – a bit sinister…
I need a holiday!
One Day in Goa
It was just one day, a stop on cruise itinerary. We had organised a driver for the day and instructed him to take him to some of his favourite places and anywhere we had to go. But… we were not interested in shopping and if he attempted to take us to one of the ubiquitous tourist shopping centres we would not get out of the car, nor would we give him a tip. He was very amenable and off we went…
First thing you can't help noticing is the feral bulls. They're very mellow, almost amiable… lean and lanky, they can be found ambling along the road, or rummaging in rubbish tips…
Cathedral Se – Goa was occupied by the Portugese and this part of India is mostly Catholic. We did not actually visit the cathedral as a much bigger attraction was just across the road. But it made a wonderful photo.
Basilica Bom Jesus – home of the mortal remains of Saint Francis Xavier. Roman Catholic gaudiness meets Indian gaudiness for a blinding tribute to… hmmm, not sure what, but it was gold on gold on gold…
The actual remains of St Francis Xavier – through those little window are his actual body, minus a few bits and pieces purloined along the way by other churches in need of sacred relics.
View of the main church area. It is still an active church with regular services. One thing I noticed in India – things that are old are still in use. If not, they decay so rapidly, are reclaimed by the jungle, they soon disappear. This same day we visited the ruins of a cathedral that had been used until the 1930s. I thought it must have been abandoned at least 500 years ago, but very little can survive in the heat, rain, humidity that is western India unless it is continually looked after, maintained and repaired. This church was built in 1594. It's got a lot of love and care over the centuries.
The beach – the Arabian Sea. We had the best seafood of our lives here. Days pass so quickly when you are in port for just one day. Back on ship, we watched the fishing boats come in at the end of the day. A little further down the harbour it becomes more urban. We had the most incredible, melon coloured light.
I thought the big oil tanks looked like giant hat boxes.
Added a wee bit of glow to this sunset shot… I really loved the day in Goa. We also visited Mumbai and Cochin, but Goa was my favourite. I would love to return and spend a few weeks there and really explore it. Who knows – maybe one day.

VEGF induces sensory and motor peripheral plasticity, alters bladder function, and promotes visceral sensitivity

BMC Physiology 2012, 12:15 doi:10.1186/1472-6793-12-15Published: 19 December 2012
This work tests the hypothesis that bladder instillation with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) modulates sensory and motor nerve plasticity, and, consequently, bladder function and visceral sensitivity.
In addition to C57BL/6J, ChAT-cre mice were used for visualization of bladder cholinergic nerves. The direct effect of VEGF on the density of sensory nerves expressing the transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily 1 (TRPV1) and cholinergic nerves (ChAT) was studied one week after one or two intravesical instillations of the growth factor.
To study the effects of VEGF on bladder function, mice were intravesically instilled with VEGF and urodynamic evaluation was assessed. VEGF-induced alteration in bladder dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons was performed on retrogradly labeled urinary bladder afferents by patch-clamp recording of voltage gated Na+ currents. Determination of VEGF-induced changes in sensitivity to abdominal mechanostimulation was performed by application of von Frey filaments.
In addition to an overwhelming increase in TRPV1 immunoreactivity, VEGF instillation resulted in an increase in ChAT-directed expression of a fluorescent protein in several layers of the urinary bladder. Intravesical VEGF caused a profound change in the function of the urinary bladder: acute VEGF (1 week post VEGF treatment) reduced micturition pressure and longer treatment (2 weeks post-VEGF instillation) caused a substantial reduction in inter-micturition interval. In addition, intravesical VEGF resulted in an up-regulation of voltage gated Na+ channels (VGSC) in bladder DRG neurons and enhanced abdominal sensitivity to mechanical stimulation.
For the first time, evidence is presented indicating that VEGF instillation into the mouse bladder promotes a significant increase in peripheral nerve density together with alterations in bladder function and visceral sensitivity. The VEGF pathway is being proposed as a key modulator of neural plasticity in the pelvis and enhanced VEGF content may be associated with visceral hyperalgesia, abdominal discomfort, and/or pelvic pain.

Math formula may help physicists calculate entropy of a modular black hole
Emory mathematician Ken Ono has marked the 125th anniversary of the birth of Srinivasa Ramanujan, an Indian mathematician who achieved stardom for figuring out amazing numerical patterns and connections without the use of proofs or modern mathematical tools, by creating a formula for mock modular forms that may help physicists who study black holes.
Well-known English mathematician G. H. Hardy is said to have placed Ramanujan in the same league as famous mathematicians such as Euler, Gauss, Newton and Archimedes. While he had no almost no formal training in pure mathematics, Ramanujan made significant contributions to mathematical analysis, number theories and several other areas of mathematics.
"I wanted to do something special, in the spirit of Ramanujan, to mark the anniversary," says Mr. Ono. "It's fascinating to me to explore his writings and imagine how his brain may have worked. It's like being a mathematical anthropologist."
Mr. Ono worked with Amanda Folsom, from Yale University, and Rob Rhoades, from Stanford University.
Mr. Ono's formula also solved one of the greatest mysteries left behind by the Indian mathematician.
Ramanujan is said to have written a letter on his death-bed in 1920 to G. H. Hardy that detailed several new functions that performed differently from known theta functions but closely mimicked them. At the time, Ramanujan theorized that his mock modular forms agreed with the ordinary modular forms earlier identified by Carl Jacobi. He believed that both would conclude with similar outputs for roots of 1.
"It wasn't until 2002, through the work of Sander Zwegers, that we had a description of the functions that Ramanujan was writing about in 1920," Mr. Ono posits.
Mr. Ono and his colleagues used modern mathematical tools that were unavailable to Ramanujan to prove that a mock modular form could be calculated just as the Indian mathematician theorized.
"We proved that Ramanujan was right," Mr. Ono says. "We found the formula explaining one of the visions that he believed came from his goddess."
Mr. Ono explains Ramanujan's vision using a "magic coin" analogy, in which Jacobi and Ramanujan are contemporaries that shop together. They each spend a coin in the same shop but their coins take very different paths.
"For months, the paths of the two coins look chaotic, like they aren't doing anything in unison," Mr. Ono says. "But eventually Ramanujan's coin starts mocking, or trailing, Jacobi's coin. After a year, the two coins end up very near one another: In the same town, in the same shop, in the same cash register, about four inches apart."
Mr. Ono and his colleagues believe that Ramanujan's work could help physicists better understand the secrets of black holes.
"No one was talking about black holes back in the 1920s when Ramanujan first came up with mock modular forms, and yet, his work may unlock secrets about them," Mr. Ono says.
According to the Emory mathematician, the expansion of modular forms is one of the keys to computing the entropy of a modular black hole. While not all black holes are modular, the new formula may help physicists calculate their entropy as if all black holes are modular.
Mr. Ono and several graduate students looked at the paragraph in Ramanujan's letter that offered an indistinct explanation for how the Indian mathematician arrived at the functions. The vague paragraph has been challenging mathematicians for nearly a century.
"So much of what Ramanujan offers comes from mysterious words and strange formulas that seem to defy mathematical sense," Mr. Ono says. "Although we had a definition from 2002 for Ramanujan's functions, it was still unclear how it related to Ramanujan's awkward and imprecise definition."
Mr. Ono and his graduate students successfully interpreted the paragraph.
"We developed a theorem that shows that the bizarre methodology he used to construct his examples is correct," Mr. Ono says. "For the first time, we can prove that the exotic functions that Ramanujan conjured in his death-bed letter behave exactly as he said they would, in every case."
Mr. Ono was able to travel to Ramanujan's birth home in Madras to take part in a docu-drama about the famed mathematician.
"I got to hold some of Ramanujan's original notebooks, and it felt like I was talking to him," Mr. Ono says. "The pages were yellow and falling apart, but they are filled with formulas and class invariants, amazing visions that are hard to describe, and no indication of how he came up with them."
Mr. Ono is glad to have presented at the Ramanujan 125 conference at the University of Florida.
"Ramanujan is a hero in India so it's kind of like a math rock tour," Ono says, adding, "I'm his biggest fan. My professional life is inescapably intertwined with Ramanujan. Many of the mathematical objects that I think about so profoundly were anticipated by him. I'm so glad that he existed."
Ramanujan claimed that his mathematical discoveries were revealed to him in dreams by the goddess Namagiri.

I have been experimenting with the Spring 3.1 Cache abstraction features and got them to work but we have some user specific data, which I would like to cache using session scoped beans.
My cache-config.xml (imported into applicationContext.xml):

I do have RequestContextListener and ContextLoaderListener in web.xml. But everytime I try to autowire my cache object I get the following message:
Error creating bean with name 'scopedTarget.accountSettingsCache': Scope 'session' is not active for the current thread; consider defining a scoped proxy for this bean if you intend to refer to it from a singleton; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: No thread-bound request found: Are you referring to request attributes outside of an actual web request, or processing a request outside of the originally receiving thread? If you are actually operating within a web request and still receive this message, your code is probably running outside of DispatcherServlet/DispatcherPortlet: In this case, use RequestContextListener or RequestContextFilter to expose the current request.
I do have spring-aop-3.1.1.RELEASE.jar in my classpath. I tried writing a wrapper for ConcurrentMapCache that has a default constructor with no parameters so I can set proxy-target-class to true. I tried declaring them outside the cacheManager and adding it to the list of caches later.
But everytime I try to set it as a property or autowire it in a class (@Service or @Controller) it gives me the same error. It's as if the aop:scoped-proxy is totally ignored.
I also tried ehCache and it worked but it doesn't seem to support session scoped caching. I could also try to write a custom keyGenerator and use the sessionId as part of the key in the cache, but then I would have to manage it's lifecycle, it could have an expiration time but I want finer control over the data in the cache. Any ideas ?

Not for me
This game makes me feel stupid.
I'm sure that with practice, patterns and strategies become apparent, but since other experienced players have commented that the AI is pretty terrible, there's not much incentive to spend the time learning them.
I have the game on my game shelf - Pentago, so I wouldn't call it original. They made it an app as well. This one is cheaper, so I got it. I would surely like to see a Bluetooth compatible 2 player mode. Some different skins would be nice, and maybe more A.I. Settings. Overall, it's a decent job making it like the actual game.
I luv this app very simple n charming

Camera Obscura
By Brian Howe , September 25, 2006
Camera Obscura's Tracyanne Campbell isn't a big drinker, but when she does drink, she likes whiskey, straight. It turns out this is the reason for her ghost of a black eye-- not, as Pitchfork suggested, that she'd been out brawling with critics who compare her band to Belle & Sebastian (although she did seem immensely pleased with the idea). The story is simple: Got drunk, played show, fell down in bathroom.
There was a time when this sort of rock'n'roll debauchery would have been impossible for Campbell: The Glaswegian singer who elevates endearing awkwardness to an art form used to be way too nervous in front of crowds to even consider drinking before a show. But by now, after the release of Camera Obscura's excellent third LP, Let's Get Out of This Country, Campbell's unease with crowds has begun to crystallize into the confidence of a performer who knows she has something worthwhile to offer. Where taking a drink before a show once might have paralyzed her, now it performs its more commonplace function-- it loosens her up.
Pitchfork sat down to talk with Campbell before a recent North Carolina show to learn about the person behind all those sad, sly songs-- her newfound confidence, her thoughts on the U.S., and her aversion to bugs that bite (an aversion she would restate from the stage that night as she violently scratched her arm, inducing a pang of guilt in your correspondent, who thought it would be a good idea to conduct the interview outside). Sorry, Tracyanne.
Pitchfork: Has Glasgow been a supportive musical environment?
Tracyanne Campbell: I guess in a way it must be, because we were able to play in venues; we never had any trouble getting a gig. People like [Belle & Sebastian's] Stuart Murdoch have always supported us and been at our shows.
Pitchfork: Are there any other bands similar to you in Glasgow?
TC: We've always been asked in the past about the Glasgow music scene and denied all knowledge of it. I think we've been a bit stupid about doing that, because of course, there is to a certain extent a Glasgow music scene. We don't necessarily see ourselves as being a part of it, because we've never been that cool or that "in," but when I do think about it we have always had support from certain people, and these people to an extent were part of it.
Pitchfork: Can you think of any relatively unknown Scottish bands people should look out for?
TC: There's a band called the 1990s that I've heard a few songs by that I really like. It's one of the guys from the Yummy Fur, and V-Twin-- they've been around for ages, but never really made it. It's quite quirky and cheeky stuff. But I don't really spend much time going to see new groups, which is quite bad.
Pitchfork: You're probably not around Glasgow enough, with all your touring.
TC: Usually, no. Mainly the people I've wanted to see have been North American groups, and I keep missing them. Tilly and the Wall; I missed them. Final Fantasy; I missed him.
Pitchfork: This isn't the case in the U.S., but I know a lot of countries' governments will subsidize bands' tours abroad. Is that the case in Scotland?
TC: No, not really. When we did SXSW a couple months ago, we got some money from the Scottish Arts Council. But it's not the same as other places. In Sweden, you can get money from the government if you can prove you're a songwriter and need to support yourself, but I don't think that goes on too much in Scotland. Maybe we just don't know about it.
Pitchfork: Do you all still have to work day jobs to support yourselves?
TC: Yeah, we do, but it's getting crazy at the moment. People are giving up their jobs and hoping for the best. Carey [Lander] is a student; she just graduated, and basically at this moment she's jobless and homeless. And Gavin [Dunbar]'s probably going to lose his job. In fact, I think he's lost it.
Pitchfork: For taking so much time off?
TC: Yeah. And Kenny's going to have to go part time. I'm going to have to go part time or quit it.
Pitchfork: What do you do?
TC: I just work for an arts distribution company; nothing very interesting.
Pitchfork: Is it true that you met John Henderson when you were both studying music production?
TC: Sound and video recording, yeah. In '93, I think.
Pitchfork: How did you transition from that to making your own music?
TC: I went to college because that's what you did. Your parents want you to go to college because you don't know what to do with yourself, so I did that to keep them quiet.
Pitchfork: Did you finish, or did Camera Obscura take over?
TC: It was a course where I could do it for a year, or do it for two years and get a better qualification. But after the first year I got ill and left, so I only did one year.
Pitchfork: Did you find those studies useful in recording your music?
TC: Well, I didn't fiddle with any knobs. I said, "I like the sound of that; I don't like the sound of that." But I wouldn't say we produced anything. I don't think it was that useful at all, maybe because I was more interested in other stuff while I was there. It was good fun, a laugh; getting to see studios and stuff like that that I'd never done before, so I guess it was a bit of an experience. You got to work in a television studio and a music studio, so I guess to a certain extent it was helpful, but not that much.
Pitchfork: When you started Camera Obscura, did you have any inkling you'd still be doing it a decade later?
TC: I guess I had a feeling that something was going to happen that could possibly be good. I'd go as far as to say that.
Pitchfork: John left the band after Underachievers, Please Try Harder. Can you talk about why he did?
TC: No.
Pitchfork: Okay. Besides the obvious things like losing a member, how has his departure affected the band?
TC: He wrote his own songs and he's a good songwriter, a very capable person, [but] the choice was to either see it as a problem or get on with it, and we got on with it.
Pitchfork: How important was John Peel in raising your band's profile?
TC: I think he was paramount in terms of people in Britain hearing about us, since he was pretty much the only guy who played our records for years. We always sent him stuff and did several Peel sessions. He was a fantastic person.
Pitchfork: You played at his birthday party once, right?
TC: We played at his birthday party roughly three months before he died, which is kind of strange.
Pitchfork: He was such an iconic figure; what was he like?
TC: Just a nice guy. People say that and it's like, "right," but he really was. You could tell he and his wife had no airs and graces, no pretensions at all. What you saw was what you got. He was quite shy actually, and I think that's one of the reasons why I liked him, because we were also quite shy and awkward. We were sitting at his house watching a bit of TV waiting for him to come home from work, and he came in, and everybody just sat there, because we were all too shy and repressed to say, "Hello, John Peel!"
Pitchfork: You have a good deal of experience touring the States by now. Have you noticed any differences between being a band in Scotland and in the U.S., in terms of audiences and stuff?
TC: Yeah, it seems to feel more professional to be in a band here [in the U.S.]. You play to bigger crowds; you've got a tour manager, and everything's organized. We've only done two proper tours in the UK and one in Spain, and one in America before. It's great turning up and having big crowds-- not massive crowds, but good crowds for a band like ours.
Pitchfork: You draw bigger crowds in the U.S. than in Scotland?
TC: Absolutely. We played in Glasgow recently and I guess there were about 800 people there, which is probably the biggest crowd we've played to in Scotland. The crowds here in the U.S. have been bigger than previous times, so something here is working.
Pitchfork: Are there any places in the U.S. that you particularly like or dislike that you've discovered on tour?
TC: We pretty much like it all; I don't think we've been to a place that we haven't liked. The first time we came we were blown away by seeing places like Montana. Driving through America for the first time is a completely amazing experience; it's like nothing else, and you can't really explain it to people. But seeing the country before your eyes, driving into little places, towns-- it's fascinating. I've been thinking about this time and wondering if it's less exciting because we've seen it before. I'm looking at other people in the van, seeing if they're reading a book or looking out the window. I'm looking out the window, of course, because I still want to see it again.
Pitchfork: It's funny that you say Montana; I figured you'd say New York or something.
TC: New York is amazing; San Francisco's fantastic; the big places are great. But I don't know; there's something about the sights you see [in the smaller places]. It's really pretty around here; we're all quite into the way it looks here. We had a barbeque last night with the Merge people.
Pitchfork: That's a very North Carolina thing to do!
TC: It was wonderful, sitting around and watching the fireflies. The only thing I don't like is the bugs; I've been bitten quite a lot.
Pitchfork: Has Merge done well by you here in the States?
TC: I think they've done fantastically. They seem to be really reputable and people seem to know who they are, and the records are in the right places. We really like some of the other bands they have; it's nice to be label mates with people like M. Ward.
Pitchfork: Do you still enjoy going on tour or is it starting to feel more like work?
TC: It is work, but you won't find me complaining about it, because it's what I want to do. I've been pretty tired; we've been here for a week now, and last night was the first real proper sleep I feel like I've had. It's pretty intense, but I'm not going to complain.
Pitchfork: Are you the primary songwriter for the band, or is it more of a committee effort?
TC: I guess at this point I'm the primary songwriter. It depends. I don't make demos of every part and say, "You must play this." If I did, then I'd be a solo artist, I guess. I write the songs and have the basic structure and lyrics and vocal melodies, maybe some ideas for parts, but when I take it to the band it's very much everybody throwing in what they want to throw in. We all decide together when the song is finished. I'm not out to tell people how to play their instruments; I can't play them as well as they can.
Pitchfork: It's usually imprudent to assume that songs are veiled autobiography, but I have to ask if you're a generally heartbroken and melancholy kind of person.
TC: Yeah, I think I am.
Pitchfork: You think so? [surprised]
TC: Yeah.
Pitchfork: So that naturally expresses itself in your lyrics. But they're also a little bit sarcastic and funny, and even a little mean sometimes.
TC: Apparently so. So I'm told. [smiles]
Pitchfork: Do you think that's an accurate reflection of who you are? You write personally, not about characters?
TC: Some of it's about characters and some's personal. I wouldn't say it's half and half; it's not as simple as that. It just depends on how much I have to say at the time and how much I have to fill in the blanks.
Pitchfork: Do your ex-boyfriends have to worry about showing up in your songs?
TC: No, I'm sure they know when they are, but nobody's said "I can't believe you said that in a song." I'm the person who says that to them. "How could you?"
Pitchfork: Your songs tend to be colored with very specific emotions; it's not just like, "I'm heartbroken." There's complexity and empathy. Do you think that's something you inherited from music that's been important to you, or is that kind of empathy just the most natural function of a song?
TC: I think it's just the basic function of a song, really. I always feel like I sound unintelligent, but I don't worry about it too much. When I was younger and wrote songs, I used to find it very difficult to write lyrics, because I'd sit there and think, "I have to come up with an idea, a character, or something interesting to write about," but they weren't really that interesting. As I've gotten older and maybe better at writing songs, it comes quite naturally and I don't have to force it. If I feel like I have something that I need to write down to help me, I write it down, and if I think it's not complete crap then I'll put it in a song.
Pitchfork: So you think being honest has made you a better songwriter, instead of trying to think up an idea and write a song around it.
TC: Yeah. I'm not telling anybody else what to write about or how to do it, but for me, it would be far harder to sit there thinking up some story to tell. It's easier to have a bit of an idea naturally and then fill in the gaps. Then it's quite enjoyable.
Pitchfork: Do you ever encounter that phenomenon where you'll meet fans who feel like they know you on a personal level because the songs are so intimate?
TC: Yeah.
Pitchfork: Is that strange for you?
TC: No, I've probably felt that in the past, too. Of course I have; I love music and songwriters and obsess about people's lyrics. I have done in the past, where I'll go, "Oh, he understands me so well." It's only natural to do that and I think it's one of the things that people get from music. That's why they love it and why they need it. They feel like people can identify.
Pitchfork: Do you think that goes too far sometimes now, with things like MySpace that create artificial senses of community?
TC: I'm pretty crap with technology, with forums and stuff. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I used to be very cynical about it, about people who'd sat in front of a computer for too long when they should be out there bloody well living their lives. But these days I don't really like to judge people who are a part of all of that, and I don't know enough about it. I don't spend enough time with it to judge what kind of people are there and why they are.
Now we check e-mails everyday, and check the forum. Obviously, we're getting more fans, and we're wondering if the fan base is changing. There are a lot of people annoyed about what we did or didn't do, and I wonder what that's about. People moaning about us going onstage too late, which has nothing to do with us. And some people want to keep you; I don't understand that, where people want to keep you for themselves and then when you get bigger it's like you've sold out or something. We're more ambitious than being some small town indie band that 50 people know about.
Pitchfork: But you seem to have a good relationship with your fans overall, giving out fruit and asking the audience to sing along and stuff. Is that aspect of performing music important to you, the communal aspect?
TC: I think these days, to be honest, we're just so much more comfortable in front of an audience than before. I used to have real trouble playing live; my nerves would just take over and I never saw the audience as .... I never understood what they were. It was like playing for some people you had to impress or something. Now I understand that's not the case-- they're already your friend.
Pitchfork: Right, they're there to see you!
TC: And I never really thought about that. So these days we're comfortable with the crowds, and it depends what they give you. It's a give and take. We don't really go onstage thinking, "Tonight I'm going to give out some fruit." It just happens sometimes. That night [at the Local 506 earlier this year] we just happened to have a lot of fruit.
Pitchfork: How literally should we interpret "Let's get out of this country?" Are you burned out on Scotland at this point?
TC: I was just kind of burned out in general, with lots of things, just generally quite miserable and unhappy. I needed to give myself a kick up the backside and change some things and stop living my life so safely.
Pitchfork: Have you been successful on that score?
TC: I think so.
Pitchfork: What's the significance of Lloyd Cole to you?
TC: I've always been into Lloyd Cole's music. I think he's a great songwriter, and he's a bit of a god in indie circles in the UK, certainly in Glasgow. I think people who write songs have woken up to him a bit; I know Stuart [Murdoch] and I used to obsess about Lloyd Cole and the Commotions. If you get into indie music in your late teens or early 20s, it's something you're going to get into.
Pitchfork: I don't think he's as well known in the States.
TC: No, I wouldn't think so. And also they were formed in Glasgow, so that's a big thing. I think he was born in England but we like to think of him as one of us in Glasgow, because he came to Glasgow University and formed the band.
Pitchfork: Do you know what he thinks of the song ["Lloyd, I'm Ready to be Heartbroken"]?
TC: Yeah, he likes it. His wife and kids came to see us in Boston, but they couldn't get in because the kids were underage. We sent some e-mails back and forth, gave them some t-shirts and stuff.
Pitchfork: Is Dory Previn simply another musician who's important to you, or does she represent something more than that?
TC: I guess she represents something more-- I really got into her in the past few years and really love listening to her records. She seems so different and quirky and mental, and also, I started listening to her at the time when I was writing new songs for the album. So her songs meant a lot to me; when we came to America to do the first tour I listened to her a lot, so she's part of that couple of years for me.
Pitchfork: Are you aware of the other band called Camera Obscura, the one from San Diego? I discovered your band when I thought I was buying their new record. I thought the cover was really odd-- they were like this noisy, electronic thing-- and when I put it on I was like, "Yeah. That's not Camera Obscura."
TC: I think a lot of people have had a few surprises.
Pitchfork: Did you ever consider litigating against them unless they changed their name to Camera Obscura 1979 or something?
TC: No, but I think they tried to do it us, sent us an e-mail threatening to beat us up or something.
Pitchfork: But I think you were first! They're done now anyway.
TC: Yeah, they're finished.
Pitchfork: It seems like a lot of bands dabble in different styles of music, but Camera Obscura seems more intent on perfecting this one mode. Is that accurate?
TC: I don't really want to turn into some band that tries to do something too off the wall. We're just doing what we can do, what touches us, and what seems right at the time.

World Bulletin / News Desk
An entire city is in the ocean, a farm has been labeled as an airport, highways end in the middle of nowhere and a hospital now covers the entire center of British city Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare's home.
Welcome to the new world of Apple Maps that greeted iPhone and iPad users when they downloaded the highly anticipated update to the consumer giant's mobile software platform, iOS 6.
Apple Inc's home-grown Maps feature was introduced with much fanfare in June by Apple's software chief Scott Forstall and is a direct challenge to the same service offered by friend-turned-rival Google Inc.
But the app is already facing criticism from users globally for a number of geographical errors, missing information and because it lacks features that made Google Maps so popular, including public transit directions, comprehensive traffic data or street view pictures.
Apple Maps has replaced Google Maps, which is no longer available on iOS 6.
The criticism comes on the eve of the launch of Apple's iPhone 5, which hits stores around the globe on Friday. The iPhone 5 comes pre-loaded with the new iOS 6 software and Maps.
Users have created a Tumblr blog sarcastically dubbed "The Amazing iOS 6 Maps" where many have posted screen shots of the errors (ht tp://theamazingios6maps.tumblr.com/) . Pictures showed the Norwegian town of Leknes in the Norwegian sea, the entire city center of Stratford-upon-Avon is labeled as a hospital.
Some of the errors have even irked politicians. Irish Minister for Justice Alan Shatter said he was surprised to discover that Airfield -- a 35-acre estate with working farm and café in center of his constituency in Dundrum, Ireland -- has been labeled with the image of an aircraft.
He said this could be dangerous for pilots and suggested in a statement that Apple use the image of "a cow, a goat, a sheep, a flower" instead, and that an "aircraft is an entirely inappropriate flight of imagination."
Users in Asia were surprised to see two sets of the disputed islands known by Japan as the Senkaku and by China as the Diaoyu. Some joked that this was Apple's effort at providing a diplomatic solution to Japan and China, both of which claim the islands. Later searches using iOS 6 appeared to show the disputed islands had been removed altogether.
Closer to home, New York city residents are unhappy that Apple maps doesn't offer public transit directions, one of the most-used features on Google Maps in cities.
"My phone should be able to tell me which bus and train to take," said Kenan Ali, a Brooklyn, New York, resident who exclusively uses public transport in the city and has been an iPhone user since 2008. "I am hoping in the next update they will somehow add transit directions."
Apple's map service comes with three-dimensional images of cities called "Flyover" along with real-time traffic updates and also turn-by-turn navigation, the last a feature that Google has in Android devices but had not made available in Apple devices.
Apple licenses mapping data from vehicle navigation systems maker TomTom. TomTom said it stands behind the quality of its maps but didn't develop the app.
"During the process of turning mapping data into an app, every manufacturer does it their own way," said TomTom spokesperson Cem Cohen. "We are not part of that process. Apple uses exactly the same maps as our other customers."
Cohen said TomTom hasn't talked to Apple about the issues.
While in theory it will be possible for Apple to update Maps with a software fix, the problems appear to be "pretty profound and pretty fundamental," said Marcus Thielking, co-founder of Skobbler, maker of the popular GPS Navigation 2 app, built using the crowdsourced OpenStreetMap platform.
"The question is really how much expertise do they have in-house and what they sourced from third parties," Thielking said, adding that Apple requires people with a very specific skill set to fix it.
"It's not their core competence," he added.
Google, for its part, did not say whether it would do a Google Maps apps for iOS 6. Users now have to access Google Maps through the browser.
"Our goal is to make Google Maps available to everyone who wants to use it, regardless of device, browser, or operating system," the company said in a statement.
Apple shares closed down about 0.5 percent at $698.70 on Nasdaq, a day after reaching an all-time high of $703.99. The shares have gained over 20 percent in the past 3-1/2 months in the build-up to the launch of the iPhone 5.

Car: Plymouth Barracuda Fastback
Year: 1966
What makes it special: Although the first Barracudas were heavily based on the economy minded Plymouth Valiant models, Plymouth wanted them known as an independent model, so for 1966, the famous Barracuda-specific stylized fish logo was introduced. Also that year, the Barracuda received new taillights, new front sheet metal, and a new dashboard.
What made it famous: The famed Barracuda Formula S package. It included the 235 bhp Commando 273 V8 engine with a 4-barrel carburetor, 10.5:1 compression, and more aggressive camshaft with solid tappets. It also included suspension upgrades, larger wheels and tires, special emblems, and a tachometer. Disc brakes and factory-installed air conditioning were also available. Also, a center console was optional for the first time.
Why I would want one: To me, the Barracuda has always been "the one that got away." I was supposed to purchase one years ago, but the deal went sour. So, the Barracuda of any year remains on my "Bucket list of cars to own someday." I must admit, I am partial to the 1966 through 1969 models.
Fun fact: Plymouth's executives had wanted to name the car "Panda", which was unpopular with the car's designers. In the end, the Barracuda name was selected.

Management and leadership faculty experts at the University of Maryland's Robert H. Smith School of Business weigh in on the effects industry giant Apple may feel with CEO Steve Jobs stepping down. They delve into the company's succession plan, how things might be different for Apple without Jobs, and how the investors will react. *The Smith School has an in-house facility for live or taped interviews via fiber-optic line for television or multimedia content.
A test to Apple's leadership succession plan
MBA students got a dose of career guidance at their introduction to Smith's Office of Career Services (OCS) on Wednesday and Thursday of Full-Time MBA Orientation Week.
