... was built to lock the Minotaur in. Today there is just some stones and other pieces of rubble but from what I imagined I think the palace would be really impressive especially for something that was built 4000 years ago. Unfortunately a British archeologist, Arthur Evans, in the 1900's found it and tried to recreate the palace how he thought it should be. Modern archeologists now think he got it a lot wrong. At the villa we packed our bags because we are leaving ...
Today we had a long drive along the highway to Knossos, an archeological site. It was a Minoan palace which is nearly 4000 years old. It was home to a king who asked Apollo for a bull to sacrifice to honour Apollo. The bull was so beautiful though that the king sacrificed another one,which made Apollo angry. He then made the queen fall in love with the bull, which produced the Minotaur, a half human, half bull, which lived on human blood. A labyrinth was built to ...
Lake Kournas
This morning we had a leisurely breakfast and long swim in the poly to recover from our 20 hour day yesterday. Late morning we headed out to Lake Kournas, which is Crete's largest freshwater lake. We walked around to a spot where you should be able to see turtles. We took some bread to throw in to attract them, and waited patiently, but none came. We did see ...

Stone Mountain, GA
I just wanted to send out a thank you to all who came to today's devotional. It was a blessing to get a chance to see you, and hear your stories. I also want to shout out to all those whose first time was today! I wanted to let everyone know that our next event is going to be Praise In The Park, a Christian music festival that is being held at Centennial Park. Our meet time is set for around 2:00pm, and for those who do not want to deal with downtown parking there is a plan to meet at Five Points Station around 1:00pm to ride to the Dome/GWCC/Phillips Arena station to walk to Centennial. If you are new to Atlanta, and want to see more of this awesome city with some Christian sisters, this is a great way to do it :-)
I also wanted to announce the launching of our new blog: The Ruth and Naomi Generation at ruthandnaomigeneration.blogspot.com. We normally post twice a week. The postings encompass devotionals, fun Christian articles, and inspirational posts on Godly Christian friendship. So if you want some good encouragement throughout the week check it out, and follow us. :-)
Have an awesome weekend! God Bless,

Andrew Luck Not Able to Match Up With 'Surgical' Tom Brady Yet, But Young Quarterback's Time Will Come (Video)
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 11/19/12
Sunday's Patriots-Colts matchup was expected to be a big-time showdown between Tom Brady and Andrew Luck, but the final result shows that the rookie has some work to do before joining that conversation. The Patriots won 59-24 against Indianapolis, improving to 7-3 on the season in large part thanks to some costly mistakes made by Luck. While he certainly showed capable of making some plays, it's the ones that he didn't on Sunday that an opportunistic Patriots defense was able to capitalize on, most notably on a couple of interception returns for touchdowns. Boomer Esiason joined The Dennis and Callahan Show on Monday morning for a postmortem of the damage inflicted by the New England D. While Luck isn't quite at Brady's level, Boomer says, he'll get there eventually. See more in the above video.

Northwest Investment Management, the former Asian hedge fund arm of RAB Capital, plans to raise US$250 million for a new market-neutral hedge fund.
The Hong Kong-based firm, which spun off from RAB in 2009, will launch its Equity Alpha Fund in April, Bloomberg News reports. The firm's principals will seed the new vehicle, which they hope will raise the quarter-billion dollars within a year.
The fund features new hire Nial Gooding, who joined the firm last year from UBS to boost its equity capabilities.
Mark Smith, the firm's head of business development, said the new fund aims to tap a growing demand for uncorrelated stock funds in Asia. The new vehicle will not go short, will not use more than 50% leverage, and aims to have no more than 15 positions apiece in its major markets of China, Hong Kong, India, Japan and Taiwan.
"Per market, people have 30, 40, 50 positions," CEO George Philips told Bloomberg. "Once you start going above that number, you do become market."
Philips said the Equity Alpha fund will target 20% annual returns.
Northwest currently manages US$750 million across three hedge funds. The firm's assets grew by some 37% last year, thanks primarily to new allocations from institutional investors.

The Dutch Introduce New Downloader-Friendly Piracy Law
Instead of banning illegal downloads with a three-strikes rule, as France has done, the Netherlands will levy a "private copy fee" on the sale of all electronic devices.
BERLIN - The Netherlands again proved itself to be the most online-friendly nation in Europe after the Dutch Parliament dropped plans to ban illegal downloading. Instead, Dutch lawmakers choose to levy a so-called "private copy fee" on all electronic devices sold in the country.
The new law means the Dutch will not go down the more punitive road taken by countries such as France, which have imposed "three strikes" laws that force ISPs to block Internet access to users found guilty of illegal downloading.
STORY: Dutch Movie Theaters Go All Digital
The Netherlands already has a similar private copy levy on blank media, such as writable CDs and DVDs. The new law will extend the private copy tax to all electronic devices sold in the Netherlands, including laptops, PCs, smart phones, hard drives and personal video recorders. Dutch rights holders estimated the new tax could initially bring in around $80 million (€60 million) to compensate for revenues lost through piracy.
But the move could face opposition from equipment manufacturers who may challenge the new law in court.

"Mews!" Nisse, the gray Scottish fold immediately stormed towards the door, and she even wagged with her tail? Who could it be?
Spatzart: Candice didn't seem fazed by the doorbell as she struggled and kicked at Faith. "Onii-chan needs me! I got to go! I got to find him in the digiworld! I got to GO!" Sewnmon blinked, was she confusing Eirik with Tai..? "C-Candice, Eirik isn't trapped in the digital world..."
"But he is! I need him! I was awful to him! I gotta... I gotta find him!" Candice teared up, struggling fiercely against Faith.
Beeku: "There there" Faith looked to the door. Well it couldn't be Candice's parents returning, and it seemed like Sewnmon wasn't expecting anyone. "Sewnmon can you handle Candice while I check that out?" Faith left the two alone to look through the peephole. OH GOD IT WAS HER WORST NIGHTMARES COME TRUE.

You've Got Some Patching up to do 2 Spatzart: Sewnmon returned to the drowsy Candice. Worried about the situation with Lapis, she had Candice call Faith. The girl sat in bed, letting the phone ring.You've Got Some Patching up to do 2 by Beeku
Beeku: After the third ring Faith's husky voice answered. "Hello Candice. How can I help you?" There was a lingering sadness in her voice, even if she hid it.
Spatzart: "Uhm, well. Could be better I suppose... How are you?" Candice replied as Sewnmon scooted in close to hear the conversation.
Beeku: There was a soft sigh. "If I could be honest with you Candice, I'm not well. I wish I could say something else, but as it stands" Faith felt a lump form in her throat. She was a failure of a tamer who couldn't even manage to keep her digimon by her side. "...I'm unwell" she quickly changed the topic "You told me a while ago you were going on vacation so we weren't able to meet up to go to the gym together. I've missed you"
Spatzart: "I... Didn't quite make it to vacation as planned."
You've Got Some Patching up to Do 1Beeku: Lapis was on the prowl. His little trainee didn't show up for training today, just as he was going to give her a small treat for working so hard. Looks like he was getting soft if Sewnmon thought she could get away with standing him up like this. A low rumble emanated from his chest like a slow brewing thunderclap. He was going to smack her extra hard when he finally tracked her down.You've Got Some Patching up to Do 1 by Beeku
Spatzart: Sewnmon and Candice's sent had faded from sol in their absence. A sign that they had never returned to the building from the vacation Candice's parents took them on. The last place to check was house Faith and Lapis had visited.
The window to Candice's bedroom window was open.
Beeku: The trek was far for a being no bigger than a watermelon. Not to mention he had to stay out of sight from humans. Still though he ended up in a familiar parking lot, and was now waiting for the perfect time to sneak through an open door.

FIA: F1 Bahrain GP to go ahead
PARIS Formula One's governing body said the Bahrain Grand Prix will go ahead as planned despite ongoing political instability in the country and threats by some groups to disrupt the event.
In a statement issued early Friday, the FIA said: "Based on the current information the FIA has at this stage, it is satisfied that all the proper security measures are in place.
"Therefore, the FIA confirms that the 2012 Gulf Air F1 Grand Prix of Bahrain will go ahead as scheduled."
The race will be held on April 22 at the Sakhir circuit.
The statement said FIA President Jean Todt visited Bahrain in November last year and had met elected Shia members of parliament, the president of the Bahrain Independent Commission of Inquiry, ambassadors from the European Union countries, the Crown Prince, the Interior Minister and local businessmen to discuss the political situation of the country and viability of the race.
"All expressed their wish for the Grand Prix to go ahead in 2012, and since then, the FIA has kept in close touch with all these stakeholders. "Away from the public eye, the FIA has received regular security briefings from the most senior diplomatic officials based in the kingdom as well as from other independent experts."
The FIA said it had received no request from the Bahraini government or the F1 commercial rights holder, led by Bernie Ecclestone, to cancel the event.
It was canceled last year, and pressure had been growing for a similar withdrawal in 2012 because of ongoing clashes between security forces and anti-government protesters in the sectarian dispute. The crackdown has left at least 50 people dead.
Ecclestone, however, said Thursday at the Chinese GP that he saw no need for F1 to avoid Bahrain. He plans to meet with the F1 teams on Friday for discussions, but stressed that wouldn't change the situation.
"I don't see any difference between here (China) and Bahrain," Ecclestone said. "It's the same. It's another race on the calendar."
Bahrain's Sunni leaders and race organizers remain committed to going ahead as a way of showing the divided Persian Gulf island nation is moving past the strife of the past year and coming together again.
Bahrain's circuit chairman said earlier this week that extremist groups are using "scare-mongering tactics" to make the unrest seem worse than it is to force the cancellation of the race.
Amid the ongoing turmoil in the country, human rights groups have criticized the race being reinstated this year. Protesters have galvanized supporters by incorporating anti-F1 chants in their marches, putting anti-F1 posters on walls and criticizing Ecclestone and F1 drivers in online posts.
Amnesty International is also planning to release a report next week on the eve of the race detailing the numbers of protesters in Bahraini jails and the human rights violations that it says are still being committed by security forces.
Many drivers avoided talking about the situation on Thursday. When six of them were asked at a news conference whether they had any moral problems with competing in Bahrain, all six sat completely still and didn't say a word.

Comments about Women's Lana Fold-Down Leather Boots with Shearling Cuff:
I am having some foot issues and needed a stylish, flat black boot. These are perfect. They fit snugly (so order on the high end of your size). They are warm but they don't make my foot hot. And, since you can roll them down, they are two boots in one!

Warm, attractive durable winter boots
By Michigan
from Ann Arbor
The boots are warm and very comfortable, thanks to the sheepskin lining and footbed. I live in Michigan and the leather has so far not been affected by the salt. I have another pair of boots that are also leather and sheepskin, made by an Australian company, which have salt stains after every encounter. These boots are just what I wanted: practical, warm, durable and attractive.
Great boots!
By Kathie
from Monroe, MI
The Lana boot is a high quality boot that fits true to size. They are very comfortable and look great worn folded down or as a mid-calf boot. I'm so glad I ordered them.
warm and stylish

I walked into a boot store around the corner and the sales girl complimented me on these boots. They are really nice looking and practical.
By Boot crazy
from Bowling Green, KY
These boots are warm, cozy and comfy. As soon as I got them I wore them for about 5 hours of constant standing on a hard surface. I had no problems at all. The foot support is great. I will say they are a little difficult to get on and can be worn with a thin sock. This is okay since they keep your feet warm. I recommend sizing up if you have an average size foot and want to wear a bulky sock. It will make it easier to get the boot on. If narrow, then order your true size. Once your foot is inside the boot, there is plenty of toe room. The zipper is at the bottom inside and only unzips to the cuff this is why it's difficult to get the boot on. With all this said, it's a beautiful affordable boot & very cute cuffed or un-cuffed. Definitely a 5 star boot. You won't be disappointed. :D
Absolutely love it!
By Farmgirl

Bought this boots not so long ago and have no regrets! True to size, warm, comfortable, excellent quality. Very big plus is the bottoms of the boot have heavy duty grip for snowy and icy roads. Thank you for delivering Overland.

Posted on August 6th, 2011 by Sherri in
Next week, we will be heading down to Phoenix for my next doctor visit. Husband will be driving. (Do doctor visits counts as road trips?)
Our road trips, aka 'drives to Phoenix', go something like this:
I finish up in the house with whatever deems itself important at the time of departure. Husband comes in after the last load is put into the blue Buick Century 4-door sedan that sits in our driveway, covering paint and oil spills.
Husband asks, "Are you ready?"
Yes, however I must make one more run through because I feel I have forgotten something. This is normal, though nothing appears left behind. There is enough dog food, everything's been well watered. Refrigerator items have been given to a thankful neighbor. I have my toothbrush. Hairbrush. All else that seems important. We close and lock the door.
We climb into the car, pray for a safe trip, and pull out of the driveway. One annoying speed bump, two more annoying speed bumps, three more annoying speed bumps. We are out of our park. A left turn takes us to a red light and another left takes us to the highway's onramp. We are on our way.
I scour for the book I have currently been reading and as I do, I offer to drive if and when Husband wants a break at any point in time during our trip. I open my book and begin to read. Within half a page, my eyelids grow heavy and I give in to sleep. I apologize for the inability to remain awake and Husband assures me that it is okay. I feel guilty but soothe my guilt with the fact that when I summoned to drive, I will be rested. This is never the case. I can never stay awake.
I freely drift off into slumbering sleep. Gift #419.
I dream of white, molting chickens, the size of a untamed herd of Tyrannosaurus Rex's, who are viciously attacking giant, orange carrots with long stems (of which I am one). I fully awaken to the passing of a large, noisy semi-truck carrying livestock.
I sit up, having no desire to dream again anytime soon. I silently wish we had the pleasure of stopping along the way to photograph all the old barns that make their home along the northern California section of Highway 5 and find a place in my heart. Instead, I ride with the wind in my hair, keeping the window down as we pass by scenes that capture my attention. I point and shoot. One out of ten pictures are worth keeping when photographing in this way. I thank God for digital cameras. Gift #420.
Soon after I fall back to shallow sleep. I awake when we stop for gas along the way. Husband fills the car with gas while I open the car door, slowly and effectively move my feet to the ground and the rest of my body reluctantly follows suite – stiff and tight. It begins to work itself out with each step and by the time I reach the glass doors of the gas station, I am fully upright. I go inside and get a large drink for us to share. He is parked out in front of the double glass doors when I return and after buckling up, we are off again. We pass a large cattle farm and with excitement I tell Husband that I can smell it! It's a glorious smell to me, as when we usually pass this way, I can't smell it at all. Husband considers me crazy as he tells me I have been blessed. Today I am blessed indeed for – I can smell! Gift #421. I take another little nap.
We travel on and come into the Bay Area. We make our usual stop to browse in a large bookstore, so that I can walk around and Husband can look at things other than white-striped, intermittent lines on the pavement. We leave the book store and walk over to In and Out Burger. After eating a hamburger and sharing another drink, we walk back to the car, get in, buckle up, and we are on our way once again.
The drink we refilled and brought with us is void of any ice within half an hour due to the hot sun beating down on the front seat. A remembrance of reading that PD patients have a greater chance of developing melanoma than others, has me wishing I had put on sunscreen. The drink is warm shortly thereafter. I take another little nap.
Going over the Benicia Bridge, I see the vessels that once served as war ships in World War II and wonder if the one my grandfather sailed on sits stoic there in the shallow waters below. Lined up in rows like service men standing at attention, they are now fully retired, time and neglect have slowly begun peeling away at their steel shells.
The traffic has thickened by now and everyone rushes to beat the next person to the next off ramp so that they can be first at the next stop. Those that don't rush off to exit the highway are rushing to somewhere else – to home, to work, or wherever it is that causes them to put in danger the lives of those driving near them. In and out they swerve, cutting in front of us and we remember… when in California, drive as the Californians. This is done to save yourself. And so, Husband puts his imaginary California racing hat on, pushes down on the pedal, and all the driving experiences of growing up in these parts quickly begin to fill his memory bank and he is soon in step with the rest of the crazies. I close my eyes and pray, at the same time asking Husband to tell me when the bad parts are over, as if I were watching a terribly graphic war movie. I don't like terribly graphic war movies.
The traffic begins to thin as we make our way to the summit of Hwy. 17. Now, if you have never driven 'over the hill' – Hwy 17 – you have missed an experience everyone should include on their Bucket Lists – just for the heck of it.
Approximately 35 miles away from the southbound point of 'the hill' in the quaint little town of Los Gatos, lies the infamous Santa Crus Beach and Boardwalk with one of the world's last, original, wooden roller coasters known as – the Big Dipper. With every twist and turn, it jerks you to the left and jars you to the right and when you get off, you wonder how you survived. Well, Hwy. 17 is like that roller coaster if you take out some of the ups and downs and add several more twists and turns.
Then there is the fact that it's two lanes each way, driven by crazies, with canyons deep on each side of the pavement. If you miss a turn, you will descend with great speed to the treed canyon below. Unless, of course, you are prematurely stopped by the trunk of an old oak, madrone, or redwood tree. Either way, you will have caused a major back up of traffic for miles upon endless miles because, for most of these crazies, this is the quickest (and for some the only) way home after a long and muggy hot day over the hill to what is also known as the Silicon Valley. And – they won't be happy about it, either.
We eventually begin our descent southward to the valley below, having made it safely 'over the hill'. We enter Scotts Valley, a little town between San Jose and Santa Cruz. It was at one time not so very long ago that we took up residence here for over thirty years.
What was once a quiet, little dairy town, now thrives with boutiques, specialty shops, and fast food restaurants. Having attracted all of those who work over the hill, this little town now boasts a multi-billion dollar housing track where once the dairy stood. Blackberry picking has been replaced by homes with those who instead use Blackberry phone devices and open fields full of wildflowers have been filled with McDonald's, Burger King, and Taco Bell. There are no more feuds over where the new high school should be, having already been built on Cupcake mountain, one of the last mountains left in the little town. The little pond behind Husband's childhood home – where he spent his first twenty years – has been replaced with another multi-multi billion dollar housing development, where children are no longer able to fish in the nearby pond or watch for rattle snakes. All of the rattlesnakes have been pushed into the residential areas where they coil and count the minutes to when they can hiss at innocent, young Cub Scouts who are just trying to play a little game of basketball. I know this from experience.
I had a friend once who was bitten by a rattlesnake. That's a story for another time…
And so…
As we pull into the senior mobile home park where my in-laws reside, we take a deep breath and breathe in the still summer air and are thankful there are not speed bumps every hundred feet, that the traffic is obsolete, that we are greeted by residents out for an afternoon stroll to the park's pool, and we can get out and stretch.
We are welcomed with loving hugs and kisses.
Night falls and we bring in our suitcase. As we ready for bed, I unzip it to grab my pajamas. I look everywhere, finding them nowhere. I realize what it is I forgot.
Making due with the sweatpants I threw in at the last minute, Husband and I pull the comforter down and lay on top of the blankets, tired and hot. It is still 80 degrees outside. The next morning we will begin the second leg of our trip to Phoenix, where it will be between 100 and 110 degrees, cooling to the low nineties.
Ah, the joy of road trips.
I do love road trips. Taking pictures, getting a little extra sleep, enjoying the scenery. Do trips to your doctor qualify as road trips? Is driving this far every 3-6 months worth the trek? Worth the care?
Unequivocally, yes.
When it comes to trusting your doctor – his skill, his experience, his wisdom, his care – yes.
It's a long trip. It's an expensive trip, paid with monies that could be used just as well elsewhere. When I feel guilty about the expense (and I usually do), Husband says it's worth it to him to see I have the best care and to have a doctor that I trust and who cares about me.
And so…
I lay on the bed and listen to Husband already snoring, fast asleep. I don't know why I can't sleep. As I lay there, I quietly thank God for safety. Gift #422. A wonderful husband (who likes to drive). Gift #423. A loving and supportive family. Gift #423. A doctor I trust. Gift #424. As I continue with thanks, my eyes grow heavy and I finally drift off to sleep. Soon I am dreaming of giant gorillas chasing little girls (of which I am one) down busy streets. When I wake up, almost in tears, I tell myself that the giant gorillas are an improvement from dinosaur-like chickens.
A long day down a major highway in California in the middle of a heatwave summer with the windows down for taking blurry pictures. It just doesn't get any better than this.
Journeying with you,

1999 Mercury Cougar Q&A
1999 Mercury Cougar Question: Starter/alternator/wiring?????
Ive recently replaced the transmission and it drives and shifts perfect, but sometimes out of the blue the car will die like the alternator is going out, usually within the first 5 min. of driving, lights dim slowly, no radio, no gauges, until the car runs rough then dies...the only way to get it started again is to jump it, otherwise it will just click like the starter is getting weak, and after you jump it, it runs fine and will stay running..The battery light flashes rapidly..doesnt stay lit, and i just put a new battery in. ive checked the grounds and all seem to be tight. I need help please!!! - Mredsk8er
2 Answers
Answer 1
Make sure the terminals and cables are clean and tight even down to the starter, because a loose or corroded cable will cause intermittent problems. - Valleyautotech
Answer 2
To Me it sounds like you have a constant pull of power at all times, until it kills your battery, How to check it is, Get a $5 test light Unhook Neg. off of battery and touch the prong of the test light to the positive battery terminal and if the light lights up then start pulling fuses (1 at a time) until the ligh goes out, once the light goes out, then you've narrowed it down to 1 particular thing, and as far as these cars burning up alternators, If you would take the positive wire off from the alternator to the starter, there is an 175amp Inline fuse there, this fuse is way to big and it continue to burn up alternators.. - Joseph9999

International example bears little resemblance to U.S. cybersecurity bill
Does the recent Egyptian communications blackout tell us anything about proposed security legislation in the United States that critics say would give the president an Internet kill switch?
In a word, not really. OK, two words.
There is a superficial similarity: Egypt's dictatorial regime shut down the Internet and mobile phone service by ordering carriers to disconnect. The security legislation, which Sens. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), Tom Carper (D-Del.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) introduced unsuccessfully last year and are planning to try again, would give the U.S. president the power to order the shutdown of some portions of the Internet during a declared cyber emergency.
However, there are some critical differences. First, whatever you think of the policies of the president — current, past or future — the president is not a dictator. He is bound by the law.
Second, the law in this case permits the shutdown only under specific circumstances and only in a limited way.
A Google search can turn up many links breathlessly warning of a kill switch that would give the president the power to take over and shut down the Internet. The reality is much more sober. Under the proposed legislation, the president would have limited power to require the disconnection of a targeted critical infrastructure system only when there was a credible threat and only with notification to Congress and the owners and operators of the affected critical infrastructure. And any measures taken would have to be the least disruptive possible.
That is quite a bit less than a kill switch.

There are lots of laws that bind the president and congress, but they are not all strictly followed. Often there are "gray" areas that they get into and occasionally push to expand depending on what they can get away with. With a mostly complicit newsmedia, some presidents, like the present one, can push those boundaries a lot without any serious repercusions. You give them an inch and they take a foot. That is why many are worried about this proposed law.
So what's New?
I would worry less about this sort of power if it were not for such "LAWS" as the Patriot Act, et allia. The AMerican people and the slected representatives have repeatedly displayed the lack of vigilance and integrity to prohibit Cudgeling the social thread with LEGAL abuse.

After making a furious fourth-quarter rally, the Lady Raiders fell 35-33 to the Lady Bulldogs in the championship contest.
WARNER — Behind a strong effort on the defensive end and 18 points from D. Brown and 16 points from Ericka Edwards, the Carl Albert State College Lady Vikings rolled past the Connors State College Cowgirls 69-55 on Thursday night.
A late run in the second half proved to be the difference for the 22nd-ranked Connors State Cowboys in their 64-54 win over the Vikings in the second game on Thursday night.
The Poteau High School basketball teams played Stilwell on Tuesday night at Sherman Floyd Fieldhouse. It was their second of two meetings this season, but thanks to the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association the two schools will meet once more on the hardwood.
Poteau's teams will entertain Stilwell in a Class 4A District Tournament when the playoffs begin in two weeks.
All Class 4A, 3A and 2A district assignments were announced Thursday afternoon by the OSSAA.
The Poteau Youth Wrestling Club had representation in three different events, with at least one wrestler medal in each.
At the Cascia Hall Tournament in Tulsa, three members, Jarrett Lilley, Parker Rosenberg and Riley Rosenberg, participated. Lilley placed first in his division, while Parker Rosenberg was third in his division. Lilley will represent the club at the Junior High State Tournament in Oklahoma City this weekend.

Angus Stone Plays Denver's Fox Theatre, 9/19
|Related Links
|Colorado's Fox Theatre Announces Shows Through Nov 2012
July 23, 2012
|Related: Angus Stone, Fox Theatre
Z2 Entertainment presents Angus Stone at the Fox Theatre on Wednesday Sept 19th. Tickets go on sale Friday, July 27th for $17.00 in advance and $20.00 day of show. Doors: 8:30 pm | Show: 9:00 pm.
"I feel like it would be my most personal work to date," he ventures on the topic of Broken Brights, his album released on July 17. "I think I'm constantly introverting to that place, to that pocket I've always wanted to live inside amongst the songs & the tales that I've written. This album holds an essence that I've been searching for, for a long time." That search has taken him to the far-sailed corners of the globe. He's recorded in a rustic dwelling nestled in the Swiss Alps, beneath Australia's bright-lit cherry blue skies along the coastline, to a ramshackle log cabin with a view over the lush Indian countryside.
On one hand, you'll find Angus Stone off in his own world, dreaming away, and on the other, he's energetic, charismatic and quite frank. He's had to be to keep up with the pace of his career — Stone's quickly becoming one of contemporary music's most acclaimed, yet inherently enigmatic, young artists.
For the past seven years, he's been travelling the world as one half of brother-sister duo Angus & Julia, during which time he's played to spell-bound audiences in sold-out shows at iconic venues like London's Royal Festival Hall and Paris's Le Trianon. Together, the artists have sold close to a million records around the world since the release of their debut EP, Chocolates and Cigarettes, in 2005. Now, Angus Stone is setting out on his own.
"I'm excited to let go of it all," he says of Broken Brights: the first solo album he's released under his own name. "For the people that have listened to Julia and I play for so long, I'm looking forward to handing it over to them so that they can create their own worlds & experiences with the writings. To play live as my own in front of those people, it's going to be a different trail of gravel & gold, but none the less very exciting."
Stone has drawn upon the ideas and experiences that make Angus & Julia's music so endearing, whilst offering a fresh perspective on the world that they've created. His poignant lyrical musings on life, love, and loss are both familiar and fresh, which will no doubt excite old fans and invite new ones into the fold.
In short, what Angus Stone has captured in the recording process is this: memories and imaginings from his pilgrimage around the planet. What he says about going solo could easily sum up the experience of listening to Broken Brights: "It's a whole different trip."
